This document provides an overview of how applications can be written to support the broadest range of physical screen characteristics with the least amount of work by the application authors and graphic designers.
The intent is to provide a means of allowing applications to be written in a density independent manner, where the physical size of UI elements is consistent across a wide spectrum of devices. As automatic software scaling and conversion can not know the internal meaning of a graphics element (which pixels are important), pixel based assets must be designed for the lowest targeted pixels-per-inch (PPI). In this manner, system software can scale up to the actual device pixel density.
By following the guidelines in this document, application creators can create a single application package which will work across all devices, varying both in pixel density and physical screen sizes.
Lower priority: In addition to the varying densities targeted by MeeGo, the system should support various "distance-from-eye" scenarios as well as varying "input device resolution". An example of the former is a status bar on a tablet that is held 6-8" farther from the eyes than a handset--this may require that the status bar and fonts are slightly larger to maintain legibility. This may be achieved by providing a readability scaling factor used elements not intended to be manipulated via touch. An example of the later (varying input device resolution) is a scaling factor applied to the specified physical size of an element to accommodate higher precision devices (mice and stylus) as well as lower precision devices (gyro/accelerometer remotes, thumb-stick remotes, etc.)
The following image illustrates a small application running across the full range of screen sizes and densities currently supported by MeeGo. These images have been scaled to provide consistent relative sizing in the image. This was done by converting 1:1 pixel images to a virtual pixel density of 160ppi. Click the image to go to the higher resolution version.
A small 1:1 pixel crop from the highest density display (269ppi) and the lowest density (113ppi) can be seen here. When placed on the actual devices, the toolbar, buttons, and fonts would be physically the same size.
As can be seen in the table below, touch enabled MeeGo user experiences target two major physical screen size classifications; tablet (>7") and handset (~4"). In addition to the varying physical dimensions of the screens, the devices have various PPIs [dots-per-inch -- also referred to as PPI or pixels-per-inch]. Based on the expected frequency of deployment, we are focusing our "pixel perfect" UIs for only a select set of DPIs and screen resolutions.
The following provides examples of potential screen profiles which should be supported by MeeGo:
Handset | ||||
Diagonal | Resolution | PPI | Aspect Ratio | |
4" | 800x480 | 233 | 15:9 | |
4.3" | 960x540 | 256 | 16:9 | |
3.67" | 864x480 | 269 | 16.2:9 | |
Tablet | ||||
Diagonal | Resolution | PPI | Aspect Ratio | |
10" | 1024x600 | 119 | 15.4:9 | |
10" | 1024x600 | 119 | 15.4:9 | |
11.6" | 1360x768 | 135 | 16:9 | |
10" | 1280x800 | 151 | 16:10 | |
7" | 1280x800 | 216 | 16:10 |
Industry list of display densities
git clone todo -- where is the code repository??? cd meego-units qmake make && sudo make install
To start, you need to import the MeeGo Units plug-in:
import Qt 4.7 import MeeGo.units 1.0
This loads the libmeegounitsplugin adds a new QML type called 'MeeGoUnits' Since plug-ins do not have direct access to the global object namespace, the plug-in can't automatically populate a top level namespace with a 'Units' element--so you must instantiate it within your top level widget:
Rectangle { MeeGoUnits { id: units } }
At this point, you can now reference the unit conversion properties via units. The properties exposed are mm, inch, vp, and density. All three are implemented as properties with notification signals, so if the underlying device PPI changes, all UI elements can be re-laid out. This is useful when moving (at run-time) an application from a small handset screen to a larger display (for example via an attached HDMI)
Extending the above example to set the rectangle size to be 10cm x 5cm:
Rectangle { MeeGoUnits { id: units } width: units.mm2px(100.0) height: units.mm2px(50.0) }
Using the conversion properties is pretty straight forward and works as you would expect. The following instantiates a 1cm x 1cm rectangle, offset from the top left of its parent by 1cm:
Rectangle { x: units.mm2px(10.0) y: units.mm2px(10.0) width: units.mm2px(10.0) height: units.mm2px(10.0) }
Since the value of the properties returned by MeeGoUnits are non-integer (for example, units.mm might be '3.66667'), the result of most operations with the units will result in non-integer numbers as well. Due to the cast of real to int, you may encounter rounding problems which typically manifest themselves as QML Items not always lining up. This can be remedied by using the mm2px() conversion method exposed by the units object vs. using units.mm directly.
The following shows a simplified example which can lead to rounding problems:
Rectangle { width: 20.0 * units.mm height: 10.0 * units.mm ... }
Better code:
Rectangle { width: units.mm2px(20.0) height: units.mm2px(10.0) ... }
Text { font.pixelSize: units.mm2px(2.5) // create text that is 2.5mm tall text: "2.5mm font" }
Image { source: "text-bg.jpg" width: units.mm2px(9.5) height: units.mm2px(6.0) sourceSize.width: units.mm2px(9.5) sourceSize.height: units.mm2px(6.0) }

College Street hosts 28th annual Thanksgiving event
From staff reports
Every year, Lewisville senior citizens look forward to College Street Elementary's Thanksgiving luncheon and when the school hosted its 28th annual "Thankful for the U.S.A." themed event Nov. 8, attendees were not disappointed by their experience.
Kindergarten and first-grade art students created placemats and decorations, third-grade music provided the entertainment, fourth- and fifth-grade student council officers served as attentive waiters and waitresses, PTA provided centerpieces that were given away as door prizes and College Street staff coordinated the event.
"This is a service project our school looks forward to every year," Principal Cynthia Jaird said. "It provides an opportunity for us to begin teaching students what it means to work together toward a common goal and make a positive impact on the community."
"Thank you all for attending today," Rick said to attendees during introductions. "We are excited to honor you this afternoon and with Veterans Day just around the corner, we thought this program would be appropriate."
Third-graders in Amanda Stout and Christian Lee's classes then performed "American Everyday," "Grateful to be American," "Oh, I Love America," "Thank a Vet," "Stars and Stripes Forever" and "Thankful for the U.S.A."
More than 35 seniors attended the event.

Exclusive WBEN Audio On The WBEN Liveline: Former NYS Attorney Gen. Dennis Vacco: Noted Attorney Paul Cambria: Cambria and Former Erie Co. Dist Atty Frank Clark: More with Former D.A. Clark Attorney Terrence Connors representing Rice Estate: Attorney Barry Covert in court for verdict announcement: Other reaction from outside the courtroom Wednesday Night: Dist. Attorney Frank Sedita: Defense Attornies Tom Burton & Joel Daniels: |
Attorney Barry Covert says the jury believed Corasanti.
"Dr. Corasanti was able to get up on the stand, and with an experienced prosecution team...the jurors decided and thought he was credible and if they didn't they would have found him guilty," says Covert.
Covert says the jury listened to the judge's instructions, and determined based upon the law, Corasanti was not guilty of vehicular manslaughter or manslaughter.
Attorney Paul Cambria agrees.
"The doctor was sincere, I think his testimony carried the day. The defense was successful in neutralizing the expert testimony of the prosecution," says Cambria.
"They believed him, and (the prosecution) underestimated that, and the tone of the summations was wrong against someone like this." Cambria believes prosecutors underestimated the likability of Corasanti and mocking him was the wrong tactic.
Former Erie County DA Frank Clark admits he was surprised by the verdict, but not by how the jury got there.
"I'm not surprised after hearing the jury was requesting for a charge of DWI because that meant the jury had already acquitted him of manslaughter," explains Clark.
"Looking at it from the outside, if they found there wasn't enough evidence to support that charge, they likely acquitted him of all the other charges, but the fact they did comes as a great surprise to me."
Clark dispels any myth money or status played a role in the outcome.
"You had three capable defense lawyers and three experienced prosecutors, so you're talking about a talented team, so money played no role in this. It was the jury and the jury alone," believes Clark.

thank you for all this hints, that
are not helping my spirits !!!
it seems all so complicated !!!
I'm getting frustrated !!
tut88, take the airport shuttle as recommended previously (Robert Q. etc). Leaves right from airport. If you take the train you have another cost to get downtown to catch the train. Can't get it from the airport.
And for all the snow squall concerns...please. This event is end of March. While, yes, we can get freak snowstorms at any time the likelihood of a disastrous blizzard at mid-end of March is about 1% in my mind. And if it does happen, everyone will be affected. And then even then, these things don't go on for six days...more like 6 hours, so very worse case you will miss one event.
I would factor the weather out of the equation almost entirely. It's like avoiding visiting Florida because they have hurricanes.
I would have been here sooner, but the bus kept stopping for other people to get on it. - Sheldon Cooper, The Big Bang Theory
Exactly- Southern Ontario is not that likely to get that kind of weather in March- if it had been Ottawa there might be more weather concerns. (But then there's more than enough hotel space in Ottawa so commuting wouldn't be such an issue. Not that I'm bitter or anything!)
I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.
(Edna St Vincent Millay)
Even in Ottawa it's rare if non-existent that we get snowstorms at the end of March. For the past several years our winters in Ottawa have been very mild and non-existent snow in March.
It will be fine!!
By the way there are still hotel rooms available .. check www.expedia.ca for anyone who is still looking.
Sarnia is a pretty good choice not only cause I live there but ... we live right across from the US city of Port Huron so you could factor in some cheap shopping. They have loosened the rules on how much you can bring over in a short period of time but if you DO go over, I would recommend you bring your passport as proof of who are -- photo DL are often accepted but there have been times I've heard that wasn't enough to get you into the U.S.
Crazy about sports!
I live in a city that's been dubbed "crime capital of Canada". In reality, most of the crime is due to the drug trade operated by organized crime and if you don't go looking for it that kind of crowd doesn't seek you out. There's neighbourhoods that I'd avoid after dark as a young woman by myself but in reality it's not that hard to avoid.
I somehow doubt that Woodstock is really any different.
Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength - St. Francis de Sales
Where do you live? Can you please google or check out the crime stats for your community last year? How does it compare to Woodstock where last year in 2011 they had.. are you ready for this.. 'NO MURDERS'.. there was ONE terrible abduction and murder of a child in 2009..
Canadian cities in general have very low crime rates and even lower murder rates.. I work in these communities in the court systems and have consulted in the States and there really is no comparison when it comes to violent crimes.. In fact all over Canada the crime rates have dropped!
Most crimes in Woodstock are 'property crimes'.. any violent crimes are typically domestic violence.. and not any murders..
According to the local newspaper .."Woodstock's indexes are lower than provincial and national averages for crimes of violence, and between the two for non-violent crimes and the overall index. The city ended up in the middle of the pack when looking at the overall index for comparable 400-series highway urban communities such as Belleville, Cobourg and Brockville,
Looking at the city's geographic neighbours, the city's overall crime index was lower than Brantford, London and Stratford but higher than Ingersoll, Waterloo Region, St. Thomas, Norfolk County and Tillsonburg"
Even if you include 2011 crime rates actually dropped by 4% http://www.woodstockpolice.ca/images...ual-report.pdf Drug charges dropped by 11%..
Just because there is one murder/abduction of a child in 2009 it doesn't make a whole community unsafe.. really!
Thanks to PI .. I discovered I'm actually a Nontheist
"Love is better than Anger, Hope is better than fear" Jack Layton 1950-2011
Woodstock is a completely safe community! These rumours about serious problems there are not true...their crime rate is below the provincial average. Your post is not beneficial to tourism in the area and will give a bad impression about the area to visitors from other countries!
Ok, I guess I overreacted about the case. Maybe the media had blown it out of proportion. I read a lot media report about the case because I really felt sorry for the little girl. it just made me feel terrible. I guess I should avoid reading those kind of stuff in the future.
Thank you for the very informative post, and it makes me feel better about the town.
Sorry guys if I offensed you. it's good to know that it is a safe and nice place.
Any word on when single-event tickets will finally go on sale? They've been delaying selling them for a long time, saying that they're waiting on info about scheduling from the ISU. Why so long?
I agree. It has been a long wait for answers. Why can't Skate Canada tell us when the practices start, now that Qualifying rounds are eliminated. Do I still need to be there by March 10? London is gouging on hotel prices so much that I'd love to dump a few days from my reservation.

The day when a family provided all, or most, of their needs is precariously remembered, so far back in time has it retreated.
Women no longer carry "pen knives" in apron pockets to trim the goose quill writing instruments or shape candles to expose wicks.
Ball point pens are cheap and sometimes free as advertising and women rarely cook. Microwavable meals aren't messy. Few women wear aprons since microwave cooking is done in disposable containers.
Energy for heating and cooking was harvested with a two-man cross-cut saw. After notching a tree to control the fall and with a man on either end to pull, a tree was felled and cut into manageable lengths, eighteen to twenty-four inches long.
Smaller logs were cut into lengths using a bow saw.
The finishing work of splitting wood with an ax or a wedge and maul was done piece meal. Most wedges were made of dogwood shaped into a flat point. Dogwood is hard and durable. I have some dogwood wedges decades old and I occasionally add to them. The maul is also an all-wood hammer sometimes called a mallet.
The most desirable fuel for cook stoves was fast burning rosin-rich pine or "fat lighter," "pine knot," "heart pine." Mid-Westerners used corn cobs.
Oil lamps, so called because they originally used whale oil for fuel, burned well on kerosene when it became available in the mid 1800's. A nickle container of kerosene lasted a week.
We are dependent upon the electrical grid or natural gas system and if either shuts down huge populations are stuck in the dark and cold as we recently saw in the Northeast.
It is possible to live "off the grid" but solar electric power is not here yet due to cost but solar water heating is reasonably available.
Natural gas is mostly methane and a home "methane digester" can be made from scrounged parts. I know of a guy who built one and sold his propane tank. His family now cooks with home-made methane.
Many families are off the water grid and use a well for their household water supply. Only a few have a manual pump so if they lose electricity the faucet goes dry.
Raising food during the growing season was sufficient for most families. Canning fruits and vegetables on a wood-burning stove in glass jars with rubber rings and glass tops was a lot of work but saved produce for cold weather.
Root crops, such as turnips, squash and potatoes, over-wintered well in cellars. Pickled cabbage, a rich source of vitamin C as kraut, stayed in large crocks until used.
Families used a smokehouse to hang meat, mostly pork, from autumn on.
Transportation was slower by horse or mule power but it was not dependent upon the price of gasoline. Fuel came from the corn crib.
It is unfortunate that we have become dependent upon our collective society and industry to just "get along."
Those who still have the skills and patience to be self-sufficient are probably richer than all of us.

Transmission Genetics, a new resource from Baylor College of Medicine�s comprehensive website, BioEd Online, is one module of a three-part, interactive Web-based course called Genes, Health and Society. [The course, which explores the rapidly evolving world of genetics and genomics, can be taken free of charge for professional or personal development. Each module stands alone. Educators can work through the modules in sequence or move freely among them.] Transmission Genetics focuses on classic Mendelian genetics and the principles of heredity, the methods and tools used to predict the heritability of a given trait, and ideas about the nature of science and the process of scientific inquiry. Using a case study of Christine and her family�s mysterious ailment, the module emphasizes five major topics: Models of Inheritance; Laws of Inheritance; Working with Crosses; Types of Inheritance; and Pedigrees. After completing all five sections, educators should be able to answer the question: How are physical characteristics transmitted from parents to offspring? To access the course, educators must log in and take a presurvey. During the course, self-assessment questions and problems challenge educators, who, depending on their performance, may choose to access additional review material. Throughout the module, participants use an interactive �course notebook� to answer questions and record observations.
Program Director: Dr. Nancy Moreno
Award Years: 1999, 2003, 2007
Summary: The Baylor College of Medicine is located in Houston, Texas. Its HHMI-funded educational initiatives include:

Hi, I'm Hua. I've wanted to be an Art Director ever since I discovered Kid Pix 1.0 on a Macintosh Performa in second grade. Little did I know, that beaming little kid clutching his little box of floppies would be doing the same thing 15 years later in one of the nation's top portfolio schools.
Today, my strong conceptual thinking as an Art Director in the Texas Creative Sequence is complemented by the skills and practical experience I've gained from a top-notch film degree. Both have taught me to collaborate creatively as a team and see ideas evolve through execution.
So please, take a look through my little box of floppies and let me know what you think!

The Horned Frogs have one conference victory and that was the shocking upset of Kansas on Feb. 6.

Texas will need to win the Big 12 postseason conference tournament to keep from missing the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1998. TCU pulled off one of the biggest stunners of the season with the victory over Kansas. The Horned Frogs have reverted back to form since, losing their three games by an average of 24.7 points.TV: 8 p.m. ET, Big 12 NetworkABOUT TEXAS (11-14, 3-9 Big 12): Sophomore point guard Myck Kabongo is averaging 13 points in his first two games since returning from a 23-game NCAA suspension. Kabongo has made only 35 percent of his field-goal attempts. He supplanted freshman point guard Javan Felix (eight points, 5.2 assists) in the starting lineup. Sophomore guard Sheldon McClellan averages a team-best 14.2 points but shoots only 26.9 percent from 3-point range. Sophomore guard Julien Lewis (10.7) also averages in double digits. Freshman forward Ioannis Papapetrou (8.2 average) had 13 points and nine rebounds in the earlier win over TCU. The Longhorns shot 21.8 percent from the field - their lowest ever in a Big 12 contest - while being routed 73-47 by Kansas on Saturday.ABOUT TEXAS CHRISTIAN (10-15, 1-11): The Horned Frogs play a slow pace to hide offensive deficiencies, but wins are hard to come from despite a defense that allows 60.3 points and has held five opponents to 50 or fewer points. TCU has averaged 50.3 points in 12 conference games with the upset of Kansas marking the only time the Horned Frogs scored above 60. Sophomore guard Kyan Anderson averages a team-best 11.2 points and senior forward Garlon Green contributes 10 per game. Anderson matched a career-best with eight assists and also scored 11 points as TCU was routed 87-53 by Iowa State on Saturday. Senior forward Adrick McKinney had 13 points and eight rebounds in the recent loss to the Longhorns. McKinney averages 7.9 points and a team-high 6.6 rebounds.TIP-INS1. Texas is 100-62 against the Horned Frogs and TCU is one of five schools the Longhorns have beaten 100 or more times.2. Green has played in 122 games, three off the school record held by Femi Ibikunle (2003-07).3. The Longhorns were 2-for-21 from 3-point range against Kansas to drop their season percentage to a dismal 27.4.PREDICTION: Texas 58, TCU 52

Project Nursery: Stripe it Out
November 16, 2010This past weekend was busy busy! Anxious to catch up on some much-needed nursery time, we dove head first into the room and began ripping out everything that needed replacing (read more about that and see the before pictures here). Out went the built-in cabinets, out went the light fixtures and off with the old, cracked window moldings.
While the inspiration board for the nursery isn't quite finished yet… we knew that we wanted a bright and airy backdrop for the entire room and decided that the walls would be painted a light light neutral.
Hopefully these paint swatches don't show up as too pink or too yellow on your computer screen – we were down to five neutrals when we decided that with the type of light that comes through our North-facing windows, the above off-white-with-a-tinge-of-tan should do the trick (for reference, we chose Believable Buff at 50% by Sherwin Williams). It was one huge lesson in never judging a paint by it's swatch in the fluorescent lights of a hardware store, I probably drove back and forth ten times!
To keep the walls from becoming to bland, we thought it would be fun to add one striped accent wall along the most prominent stretch of the room:
Inspiration: Samantha Pynn, BHG, DecorPad and below, The Lettered Cottage
Keeping it soft and subtle was key here – we were working in the world of whites & tans and this is a close example to what I had in mind:
And so the room received a full covering in Believable Buff at 50%, and the stripes were filled in with Believable Buff at 35% (odd, I know, but I kept playing with the right blend at the Home Depot counter and I'm sure the paint man was going crazy).
Too keep the fumes from baby and me, Kevin was a sport about painting the entire room. Then he let my Mom and I stripe out the one wall once the room had been well ventilated, then he painted again.
I used tutorials from Centsational Girl and Young House Love (great suggestions!) to help guide the project, but ultimately walked away with a few tips and tricks – as well as lessons learned – of my own.
{DIY: Striping Walls}
*A gallon of paint to cover the room (or two quarts if you're tackling just one wall)
*A quart of paint in the contrasting color (one quart per striped wall is a good estimate)
*Painting tape (we used Frog Tape)
*Ruler/measuring tape/L-square ruler
*2 people (very helpful!)
1. Paint the entire wall your base color: for us this was the slightly darker of the two shades (since the rest of the room was also the darker color). Let dry for several days to avoid pulling up paint when you attempt to remove the tape in the last step.
2. Take time to pencil your lines: Measure your wall from ceiling to floor and divide the entire wall by the number of stripes you'd like to paint. Ours was 100″ high, so we broke the wall into ten 10″ stripes. While many of the tutorials I read suggested using a measuring tape to mark out your lines in various positions on the wall, I found that ultimately a level and an L-square ruler worked best for our old house. Because the walls and ceilings weren't perfectly level/straight to begin with, we initially measured out the wall in 10″ increments and then used our level to connect the dots across the wall with a pencil (without the level, our lines began to look like they were sloping upwards).
2. Tape: Tape off your pencil lines by taping along the top of one line and then the bottom of the next (so that you ultimately end up with full 10″ stripes in each alternating color). We had heard great things about Frog Tape and gave it a shot, we definitely liked the results.
5. Seal the tape edges: This is a critical step and will save you much heartache! Seal the edge of the tape that marks off the new stripe color by painting it with a quick application of the current or base wall color (purchase a sample size of your current wall color if you didn't start from step 1). Now, when a bit of paint bleeds through the tape, it will be the current wall color and not your the color of your new stripes – which would leave a jagged line.
6. Fill in your stripes: Apply two coats of the second stripe paint color between the wider tape lines.
7. Peel off tape: Next crucial step! Remove the tape shortly after applying the second coat so that the paint is still decently wet. If you wait until the paint is dry, the tape is more likely to pull up the below layers of paint and cause peeling and rough lines.
Perfect back drop for baby's room – I love how the stripes are soft and neutral, it's a nice accent but not overwhelming. Now on to the windows, light fixtures, floors and inspiration board!

I love the subtlety of the stripes.
I've been hunting down a scroll bedspread FOREVER and I see the there's one in one of your inspiration photos… I've been searching decorpad for an hour with no luck so if you could link me to where you found it, I'd be so grateful!
Many thank,
stacie -
it's so soft, love it!
The room turned out awesome, what great design ideas! To help those who didn't want to take the challenge of striping because of fear, let me introduce you to a new painting tool called U-Stripe It & Design Tool. My dad, a professional painter, invented the tool to make it easy, quicker and better for you to stripe. Now you can try all of the above ideas hassle free and enjoy doing them. Again great tips and a beautiful rooms. Your readers can now enjoy putting stripes on their walls. http://www.ustripeit.com
Love your stripes! I would never be brave enough to attempt them. I'm just not good at making straight lines.
This room looks fan tabulous!!!!!
OMG…lovin' it!!
I love, love, love this stripe technique! I can't wait wait to see what you do with the rest of the room!
You are so right!
Those woods floors do look good! Glad it was a hidden treasure. (Haha, since it was a "garden-like" floral motif carpet and you "dug it up," it is really like you were digging for treasure!)Cute stripes!
Love how it is subtle… adds interest and the little one shouldn't grow out of it.

Came out lovely, I can't wait to see the rest!!
looks great…neutral, but still interesting. can't wait to see the inspiration board!
Oh I love these stripes! I think it will turn out so perfectly and I can't wait to see what you do with it next!
Completely fantastic, I love it!!
Kate -
I adore that tone-on-tone stripe! My husband has adamantly refused to stripe any wall in our house. Partly because none of our corners are plum and also because we had to sand like crazy to get rid of the dark brown, bright orange and baby blue stripes that used to be in T's room. Still, I've been longing for something just like your nursery.
I can't wait to see the finished room. You have such excellent taste!

CAPITAL REGION, N.Y. – The cold weather can be deadly. In fact, there's a frostbite warning in effect for the entire state.
Doctors say that anyone over 65, those who have diabetes or poor circulation and children under 13 should remain indoors as much as possible or limit time outside to no more than ten minutes.
Frostbite and hypothermia can set in within a few minutes on any uncovered skin, so make sure your skin is covered.
"The first sign is pain. They start getting that burning pain is a sign that you're starting to get some damage to the tissue and it's time to go inside," said Dr. Bryan Cargano.
Doctors say the most dangerous time for frostbite is in the morning and late afternoon when kids are waiting to get on and off the bus.

In a letter to Congress last week, FBI Director Robert Mueller said "sequestration will require immediate and significant reductions" to the agency and its operations.
"Because sequestration calls for across-the-board cuts, the FBI would be required to do less in all its programs, including against Al Qaeda and its affiliated groups, as well as the growing and sophisticated threats from cyber attacks, foreign intelligence, and national and transnational criminal activities," Mueller's letter warned.
For example, he noted, sequestration would mean cutting 2,285 FBI employees.
The GOP opposes any increase in tax rates or other steps to bring in more tax revenue, saying the nation needs to reduce the cost of government.
"We should close loopholes and carve-outs in the tax code, but that revenue should be used to lower rates across the board," Boehner's statement said. "Tax reform is a once-in-a generation opportunity to boost job creation in America. It should not be squandered to enable more Washington spending."
To Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, the GOP stance means "Republicans have shown that they would rather let the sequester go into effect, or make even deeper cuts to Medicare, education and medical research, than close a single wasteful tax loophole."
In their plan unveiled last week, Senate Democrats proposed replacing the forced spending cuts of sequestration through the end of this year, leaving time for possible negotiations on a broader deficit-reduction package that would eliminate sequestration entirely.
They called for $54 billion in new revenue by implementing the "Buffett rule," a principle by billionaire financier Warren Buffett that he shouldn't pay a lower tax rate than his secretary.
Under it, anyone with adjusted income of more than $1 million after charitable deductions would pay a minimum 30% tax rate.
Other revenue measures in the package include ending tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas and closing tax loopholes for the oil industry.

Like the sound of a playing card in the spokes, some sounds simply sing the songs of cycling nostalgia. Remember, long before we were so serious as to call riding a bike 'cycling,' our bells were the language in which the roaming 'peloton' of banana-seats and streamer'ed-stallions communicated. In those princely days on your block, the bell chimed just to chime, but now as an adult, the Portland Design Works King of Ding Brass Bell is a safety necessity for your urban empire.
Whether you're keeping a car in check, or trying to surpass a jogger, the King of Ding will herald the message loud and clear. It features a solid brass construction, a brass striker, and an alloy mounting bracket. The striking note is sonorous and distinct, and the bracket fits both 22.2 and 25.4mm handlebars.
The Portland Design Works King of Ding Brass Bell comes with a shim for 22.2mm handlebars and is available in the color of natural brass.

26 Hour(s) ago | Excellent | Great fit, style and pattern. | |
23-May-2013 | Good | Happy with quality of service but delivery time is disappointing given that you pay £5 for it. Mine took over a week,which wouldn't bother me if it was free | |
21-May-2013 | Good | It would be good to know if there was an option to get sleeves repaired, I have noticed lately that the elbows on my work shirts wear through, (mouse and keyboard I should think). As a result I'm buying whole new shirts just because the elbow has a hole in it. | |
16-May-2013 | Excellent | It's the first time I had used the mail order service and I was very impressed with the service. I already knew that the products would be good as I already own a number or Charles Tyrwhitt shirts and ties. Will certainly be ordering again. | |
12-May-2013 | Excellent | Again, lovely shirt to wash and iron, great quality. | |
12-May-2013 | Poor | Product returned to store, but no trace of and yet to receive refund - very concerning. | This shouldn't be the case at all and I sincerely apologise for the delay to the processing of the shirt you returned to us – your experience most definitely isn't the norm! Thank you for bringing this to our attention, for getting in touch directly already and going into the store again too. I'm pleased to confirm that you have now been refunded for the item accordingly and we'll use your feedback to help things improve for the future. |
11-May-2013 | Excellent | Good products and with the promotion, good value. The overall service was great. | |
11-May-2013 | Excellent | Excellent service all round - top quality shirts, delivered quickly |
