HOBART | Joe Jumonville is in his first year as Munster's quarterback, and on Friday night he made sure no one would forget his name.
Jumonville set a school record with a 99-yard touchdown run en route to a 44-24 win over Hobart in Northwest Crossroads Conference action.
Jumonville was in on every one of his team's scores in the first half that led to a 31-7 lead. He ran for three scores and threw an 18-yard toss to Nick Powell.
"I didn't think I'd make it," said Jumonville, who had turned his ankle in the first quarter, then thought he wouldn't out-run anyone to the end zone. "It was tough. It was hurting a little bit, but I made it.
"Coach was calling the right plays at the right time and the line did a phenomenal job; they won the game for us."
The Northern Illinois baseball recruit throws the ball like a pitcher — he was 4-for-6 for 79 yards — and runs it like an outfielder — he had 120 yards and three touchdowns on eight carries.
"He's been a great addition to our team, and he was voted one of our captains, which shows you how popular he is," Munster coach Leroy Marsh said. "He's a Division I baseball player, and he doesn't play like it, he plays like he's trying to get a scholarship in football."
The Munster defense backed up Jumonville. With a pair of interceptions — from Powell and Anthony Conroyd — and a fumble recovered by Conroyd, the first half was dominated by the Mustangs (5-2, 3-1).
"Our defense has really improved so much and when they're doing good, they fire up the offense," Jumonville said. "There's not enough to say about them, they're awesome."
Hobart (4-3, 2-3) was able to capitalize on drives in the second half, scoring on a 10-yard pass from Andrew Barras to Drey Devereaux, on a Zach Satterfield 10-yard run and a field goal by Matt Plesac from 32 yards out.
Devereaux also scored the Brickies' only touchdown in the first half, a 61-yard scamper that pulled Hobart to within 14-7. It was after that score that Jumonville took off from the 1-yard line for the record-setting run.
Dom Lucito led Munster and all rushers with 160 yards. He scored twice in the second half.
"You've got to remember that two weeks ago we played without seven starters and last week we were without five, our little midget backs have been running great for us," said Marsh, who added that he's still without four injured starters. "We probably shouldn't be winning but we are."

Rolls-Royce vows to get 'our share' of helo engine market
"We are going to be competitive and we are going to get our share."
That was the message from Scott Crislip, president of helicopters and small gas turbine engines for Rolls-Royce, as he announced significant new helicopter business here yesterday.
Crislip pointed to strong demand for the company's Model 250 engine line as well as the growing number of those engines needing ongoing support, including ones installed in the 650 Bell 407s now in service.
He cited other new positive developments as well, including a recent agreement to supply engines to newly recapitalized MD Helicopters, the renewal of an extended service contract covering 300 new FADEC Model 250 engines for the Army's updated Bell OH-58D Kiowa Warrior light helicopters and a support agreement for Vancouver Island Helicopter's Model 250-powered fleet.
Overall, Crislip said Model 250 deliveries will increase to 360 this year from 321 last year. New engines will include improved compressor wheels and be available with dual-channel FADEC. More than 29,000 Model 250 engines have been produced and new opportunities for the engine are opening up in nontraditional helicopter markets including Poland and Russia, as airframers in those and other countries seek to make their aircraft more export attractive by equipping them with Western engines.
Crislip also noted the market potential for other engine designs, including the T-800, developed for the now-canceled U.S. RAH-66 Comanche program, and the AE1107 for an anticipated upgrade of 156 U.S. Marine Corps' Sikorsky CH-53K heavy lift/troop transports.
The AE1107 powers the USMC's V-22 Osprey tiltrotor and its engine core is compatible with powerplants for the Air Force's venerable and ubiquitous C-130 turboprop transports.
"There is life for the T-800 beyond Comanche," Crislip said. "Bell's [anticipated] MAPL [modular affordable product line] medium twin has T-800 written all over it," he said, noting that nothing currently on the market rivals the T-800's power density and fuel specifics.
Rolls-Royce is either pursuing or has closed other sales for the T-800 and AE1107 engines in markets including Australia, Malaysia, Oman, Thailand and the UK, Crislip said.

To do the cool things, you have to be logged in first.
the problem they had in Utah was their letting off the gas. they stopped being aggressive and settled for outside shots. lets hope they can learn from that and put the full throttle on Sacramento until the final buzzer.
Hey Miss Sarah: It is great to hear from you. I have been thinking and debating on BE about our road woes, and some light on the cure, Guess what? I joined the club other then some vague opinions and the fact that this is not the year for road warriors.My vague opinion is up until yesterday our shooting has been somewhat of a annoyance at home as it is on the road, therefore that is not the real problem. The fact that GW's way game scoring and home scoring is somewhat of a factor, but we have other scorers. But our over-all shooting is down whether it is at home or on the road.IMO, our defense is adequate at home or on the road, but at home it is much more smothering. So that could be a factor to a small degree, but not the reason to lose all the close games. There are three things that IMO is the difference, 1. We are definitely guilty of playing the teams record opposed to playing with our intensity. BRoy said it best, it is somewhat relaxing to know we are getting good enough that we don't have to play our A game all the time and still be able to win. This year with games so close together and most players being a little our of game shape because of the late start and no training camp, this tends to be the # 1 factor of not just us but most of the teams in the league. As you have said that there are only 3 teams that are good enough to win on the road and not have to bring their A game. 2. It is not only us playing better at home, other teams play better at home, so when we play any team we have to play at least solid because of their added energy and home pride, as in not in my house pride. Therefore, I stipulate that the only games we really play bad in are the games that we are supposed to win. We play lots better as underdogs and that is a fact.3. Is the slight Refs bias; it is IMO, that the refs get caught up in the fans excitement as much or more then the players do. That not only gives the home team an edge, but also frustrates the visiting team as to feeling they are not treated equal. Our players were clearly frustrated in the Utah game, and that is why Nate is always preaching about getting caught up in the refereeing and just plays your game. None of these would be the difference between a win or a loss, but putting them all together with the fact that we haven't had good luck at closing and playing with intensity for 48 minutes gives the home team the edge.If I thought I was close to being good enough to win that contest this is about what I feel for the first 20 gamesSorry for the long post but I do like talking about our Blazers.
OBTW, I have publicly criticised Jamal for his play, but last nights shooting was an A+. We need that kind of shooting when we are struggling on the road not when we are 40 points ahead, but that just may be another factor, maybe players are guilty of hamming it up at home where they get noticed as opposed to on the road where the crowd is definitely not impressed. At any rate Jamal's shooting was terrific last night.
i've heard some analysts talk about home and road records and most say, with a few exceptions, that it's a byproduct of the conditions of the condensed season (i.e. limited training camp, very few in-season practices and player change adjustments). my own theory is that the teams who made fewer player changes are playing better on the road in general. granted, that doesn't quite explain denver or minnesota, but that's my feeling nonetheless.last night's game was a good win for us. we didn't polay to the level of our competition and we slowly and methodically kept building our lead. i really like what Elliot did in his 17 minutes. i think he's making a strong case for some on-the-court time going forward.just want to repeat what i said in the chat last night; i think the news on Nicolas is terrific, all things considered. let him sit a couple games and come back even that much stronger. it's also kind of egg in the face of those in the chat during the utah game who, just seconds after Nicolas went down, were claiming it was a torn acl and he would be out for the season. it also proves we need to get all the info before making snap judgements. i'm happy for Nicolas that it's not any more serious than a bone bruise.as for the kings tonight; we've got to wonder who will show up. i'd love it to be Crash with another strong game against his other former team. yeah, i think that would be absolutely wonderful!~ KMM

BOSTON -- Just like last year, the Tampa Bay Rays have a tough road ahead if they are going to make the playoffs. They made it last year on the final night of the season. Can they do it again? "I want it to be exactly like last year," manager Joe Maddon said Wednesday night after the Rays' 4-2 win over the Boston Red Sox bolstered Tampa Bay's hopes in the chase for an American League wild-card spot. "It's starting to look a lot of Christmas, and we've just been playing so well; the mantra is one game at a time. We've gotta go 1-0 on Thursday (in Chicago). We went 1-0 on Tuesday, we went 1-0 on Wednesday, now we've gotta go 1-0 on Thursday. "What I like is there's a real looseness about us, but I tell ya, when the game begins, their focus is really good; they draw it in really nicely, and I like that. So I'm really eager to get to Chicago. It was great that we won these two games here; it was very important that we did." ...

This Chaco Canyon study was begun as an isolated project. It was an attempt to relate recent geology to the life of prehistoric peoples in the area. The results proved so successful, however, that other studies were subsequently undertaken. The alternate periods of alluviation and erosion discovered in Chaco Canyon and related to the tree-ring dates of Douglass (1935) have been found in other localities. The periods of alluviation are, so far as evidence now exists, nearly synchronous over the whole Southwest. Thus there has been developed an alluvial chronology still imperfect but valuable as a measure of time in the dating of archeological events. It is presumably still more valuable as a measure of alternating periods favorable or unfavorable to floodwater farming, an important method of agriculture in the area. Still more important are the inferences on fluctuations in climate parallel with alternations in the regime of streams.
The report begins with a general consideration of the area and its climate, with such information as is available on the age of the present arroyo in Chaco Canyon, with rather detailed studies of geologic processes now current there, and a description of the alluvium of the valley floor. It then presents evidence that this alluvium is divisible into three parts: the terrace, the main valley fill, and the post-Bonito channel. The antiquity of these divisions and their correlation with similar alluvial formations elsewhere are also considered. The importance of floodwater farming in the Southwest and the effect of the recent epicycle of erosion on this type of agriculture are next set forth.
The cause of the alternation from alluviation to erosion in southwestern valleys is next discussed and the argument advanced that simultaneous alternations in the regimes of widely separated streams must be due to synchronous climatic changes. The concurrent effects of climatic change and change in stream regime throughout the known human history of the Southwest affords a clue to fluctuations in human culture otherwise unattainable.

Cost pass-through of the EU emissions allowances: Examining the European petroleum markets
AbstractThis paper explores the ability of European refineries to pass-through costs associated with the introduction of the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS). We estimated a sequence of vector error correction models (VECM) within a multi-national setting which covers 14 EU member states. Using weekly data at the country level, this paper finds a significant influence of prices for European Union Allowances (EUAs) on unleaded petrol retail prices during the trial phase of the EU ETS from 2005 to 2007. Petrol prices are found to be elastic with respect to crude oil prices and exchange rates but rather inelastic with respect to carbon costs. The long-run elasticity of petrol prices with respect to the EUA prices typically ranges between 0.01% and 0.09%. Furthermore, by computing the variance decomposition our analysis shows that a significant fraction of petrol price changes in Austria, Germany, France and Spain can be explained by changes in allowances prices (between 10% and 20%). --

Day 289: So Far The Best Shot of "The Reagans" in The Butler
Another thrill was acting with Alan Rickman who plays Ronald Reagan, watching his focus, seeing the results of the careful work he did to ensure he captured the essence of the president. As Hilary Shor (one of the producers) said after watching him in his first scene, "You could sense not just the president. You sensed the cowboy, the rancher, the actor–all the facets that made up RR." (X)
They look so perfect, I can't wait to hear Alan speak like Reagan!
… He played Reagan? NEED TO WATCH!
I keep telling myself it's Alan…it's Alan…

I totally agree. I love the landscape, the talents look great, the farming and pet battles are super, but challenge modes, they seem so boring, just the same content again but faster, as if that wasn't what you ended up doing when bored anyway. It's annoying that they have unique prizes I'm going to want, so I will feel forced to do them.

Tunnel remote port to local via SSH
Just a note for myself: to access a closed port from remote machine via SSH, do the following:
ssh firstname.lastname@example.com -N -L <local_port>:localhost:<server_port>
local_port will be opened on current machine so you will be able to connect to
localhost:<local_port> as if you tried to open
localhost:<server_port> on the server.
-N part it will just connect to server and forward the port, without opening shell.
For more info you can always consult
man ssh =)

The $100 laptop may just be around the corner. MIT's Media Lab (co-founded by Nicholas Negroponte), otherwise known as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has developed plans for a $100 windup laptop. MIT hopes to distribute 15 million test systems to nations that are greatly in need. Media Lab is working to distribute the laptops to school children in Massachusetts as well.
To be clear, Neogroponte has pointed out that it is "an education project, not a laptop project".
The specs of the machine are a 500 MHz chip with 1GB of memory. The screen will function in either color, or "in a black-and-white sunlight-readable mode". It will function not just on hand cranked energy (which is damn cool), but batteries and wall plug-in. Other features will include WiFi and cell phone integration.
Not bad for $100.
There is also an Indian based company that is developing a desktop like computer that uses a cell phone chip for a processor, can plug into your TV and runs off a network to make the device void of costly hard drives and plug-ins. They too are hoping to sell the device for $100.

Armenian Genocide Resolution Passes House Committee, Straining U.S.-Turkey Ties
March 5, 2010 - 5:43 AMThe 23-22 vote by the House Foreign Affairs Committee sends the touchy issue to the full House, where prospects for passage are uncertain.
The House Foreign Affairs Committee endorsed the resolution, which Turkey sees as a historical affront, over the objections of President Barack Obama. Minutes after the vote, Turkey angrily withdrew its ambassador to Washington.
The 23-22 vote sends the measure to the full House, where prospects for passage are uncertain.
"I declare such a decision that was taken with political concerns in mind to be an injustice to history and to the science of history," Turkish President Abdullah Gul said in the capital, Ankara.
"Turkey will not be responsible for the negative results that this event may lead to."
The Turkish government also warned in a statement that the vote "could adversely affect our cooperation on a wide common agenda with the United States."
The vote comes as the United States is pushing for new sanctions against Iran to be approved by the U.N. Security Council, where Turkey currently holds a seat. Turkish cooperation is also important to U.S. operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Obama administration had been silent about the resolution until shortly before the vote. In statements Thursday, the administration made clear it was opposed to its passage, because it fears it could upset reconciliation talks between Turkey and Armenia.
Turkey's ambassador to Washington, Namik Tan, welcomed the Obama administration's opposition to the resolution, but said he wished it had come sooner.
An agreement reached in October between Turkey and Armenia calls for the opening of the border between the two countries, but Turkey's parliament has yet to ratify it. The agreement also calls for a panel to discuss "the historical dimension" of the killings. Turkey says U.S. lawmakers should stay out of the issue.
Historians estimate that up to 1.5 million Armenians were killed by Ottoman Turks around the time of World War I, an event widely viewed by scholars as the first genocide of the 20th century. Turkey denies that the deaths constituted genocide, saying the toll has been inflated and those killed were victims of civil war and unrest.
Armenian American groups have sought congressional affirmation of the killings as genocide for decades and welcomed Thursday's vote.
"The committee's message was simple yet powerful: Turkey doesn't get a vote or a veto in the U.S. Congress," said Ken Hachikian, chairman of the Armenian National Committee of America.
The committee's vote is awkward for Obama, who pledged as a presidential candidate to recognize the Armenian deaths as a genocide. The administration reversed course, as Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton acknowledged Thursday.
"Circumstances have changed in very significant ways," Clinton told reporters traveling with her in Costa Rica.
She said the United States supports efforts to resolve the historical dispute.
"We think that is the appropriate way to manage the problems that have stood in the way of normalization between the two countries," Clinton said.
Clinton said the Obama administration is concerned the resolution could harm the talks between Turkey and Armenia.
"We do not believe that the full Congress will or should act upon that resolution and we have made that clear to all the parties involved," she said.
The Foreign Affairs Committee approved a similar genocide measure in 2007, but it was not brought to the House floor for a vote following intensive pressure by then-President George W. Bush.
Associated Press writers Suzan Fraser in Ankara, Turkey; Matthew Lee in San Jose, Costa Rica; and Darlene Superville in Washington contributed to this report.

Volkswagen has big plans for US: 1 million vehicles sold a year by 2018. Figures that large means VW must sell over four times more then they sell now (GM sells about that many cars in Latin America, Africa and Middle East combined.) So how how will be this possible? VW believes in expanding the product lines, including a possible Beetle truck.
the Beetle-based pickup that might be added to the line-up after the second generation Beetle will be launched on the US market in 2011. Other bug variants include crossover and wagon versions.
Less outrageous ideas include Volkswagen may bring over a new family of small vehicles based on its space up! concepts. Short term, Volkswagen will try to generate excitement this year with the introduction of the Routan, a rebadged Chrysler minivan, and the coupe-like Passat CC. Next year, the redesigned Rabbit (Golf) reaches showrooms.
On the horizon, a compact sedan that will compete with the Honda Civic will be launched in 2012. The redesigned Jetta debuts in 2010, with SportWagen version coming in 2012. A new mid-size sedan, similar in size to the Passat, will go on sale in 2011. A less-expensive successor to the Phaeton luxury sedan could go on sale here as soon as 2011.

Anyone eaten at DBGB yet?
- h
- hiddenembers.com Jun 11, 2009 11:21 AM
Curious likes & dislikes on the menu. I will be going tonight. Happy to share my thoughts in the morning.
Yes and not blown away. Our table had sausage, chopped salad, pate, the roast lamb, the braised steak (flatiron maybe?), the skate, a Frenchie burger and some desserts. The best sausage was a kaisser something and was filled with cheese and came with kraut. It was really good. The pate was a disappointment...they should turn it into a better plate or bump the price and give you a couple kinds...as is it's just whatever and they just slap down a slice of pate and the same bread they bring you when you sit down. The burger was the one with the pork belly. I think you'd be better off going with the plain burger and adding bacon. I don't really understand the burgers...they're 6 oz, two come with crazy pork toppings (the pork belly and another with daisy may's pulled pork and slaw), and cost $17-$19. The braised steak was great. The ice cream sundaes were ridiculously good.
I guess I couldn't really figure the place out or I wanted it to be something it wasn't. The space is pretty awesome and the entrees are good. The burger was underwhelming (but there are so many good burgers in the city). I think you could approach it in two different ways: one trip you could go the apps/ entrees/ desserts and wine route and another way would be to just order three or four sausages and a bunch of beer. I'm sure the place will kill and will be packed late night but I was surprised by my "meh" attitude about it considering how much I like the other DB restaurants.
re: jgradieoakes
I had dinner there on Friday. Not blown away either. I had the sausage you were talking about, I think it's the Viennoise. I actually found it rather unappealing. The taste was good but the color was this awful pale pinkish grey. Maybe it was the lighting but god the look was completely unappetizing. Thank god it tasted better then it looked but it was still just ok.
My appetizer was good though. It was asparagus with a breaded fried (semi-hard boiled) egg with duck chitlins and procuitto. And yes the ice cream sundaes were delicious. I didn't try anyone else's food but the guest who had the frenchie really enjoyed it. other than thatm I'm not rushing back anytime soon.
The decor however was really nice. I liked the space. Too bad the food isn't up to par
re: kelea
I third the "meh" opinion. The most outstanding feature of this place are the beers. SO many and the bartenders (especially) are so knowlegable. They encouraged us to sample a couple before deciding what to order a full glass of. We had cold cucumber soup (very nice with a bread stick with raw salmon), hot tomato bisque (the best part was the crostini), and three sausages. Vermonter, Viennoise and the last was not memorable enough to recall. We did not stick around for dessert due to the lackluster savory portion of the meal. Now I wish I had tried the sundaes!
re: lollypop
i'm on the 'meh' train as well.. although i'd say a little worse than 'meh' - place was pretty terrible to be honest. we're working on our full review but in short, i felt like i was in a Restoration Hardware eating dinner. There were too many people mulling around our table doing nothing but getting in the way and awkwardly tending to needs that didn't need to be attended to. Our waiter was ridiculous. didn't have a clue what was going on and looked way too much like will.i.am. He admitted he knew nothing about the menu and has only eaten the food once. Way overpriced, we had two different steak dishes, two sausages a bunch of apps (those salads are a joke) and nothing was impressive. except the bill. which was nuts for what we ate.
seriously i'm not a hater, i buy in on most buzz but this place was just not good. it belongs on the upper east side and there, it would be a solid addition. no disrespect Flex Mussels. I love you. Don't be mad.
new site!
dbgb. Great food. We ordered tuna tartar (the only boring choice) and asparagus with egg as starters, then skate and steak as main courses. Wonderful. Carrots as a side fine but definitely not $6 worth. Front end service snippy as hell. This is how two men are treated during gay pride week? Fire the schmuck. Wrong entry served to us (two steaks, where's the skate?) but the apology so too little too late (check time) Daniel should fire this schmuck too.
Recap: great food, so do go. Ugly experience for us.
re: workintheater
I wasn't blown away...
Cucumber soup- nice & refreshing
Pate Campagnard- just ok (I am one who loves pate). They need to give more bread with this.
Duck & Cherries- This was ok. The duck was well-cooked & the sauce complimented it, the spinach *needed something*
I preferred the Sausage duo- (Vermont & Beaujolais)
Veal Tongue- I am kinda scared of Veal tongue (it doesn't look too appetizing to me), but this was pretty darn tasty.
Bone Marrow- The presentation is interesting. They serve you a big bone, that is cut on the side so you can take out the marrow. Personally I am not a fan of marrow, but other people at the table seemed to like it. I think I actually said, "Blech!" as I put it in my mouth & the other people looked at me like I was "uncultured" or something.
The tripe was good too. I usually hate tripe (only had it in soup). This tripe was fried. I guess everything tastes good fried. :-)
My fave thing was the pig's foot. It was fried. On the inside, it was kinda like shredded pastrami. Served with a dijon mustard. Yum!
Fries- were good, but nothing special.
The beer selection & wine were fabulous. My fave beer was the Rodenbach Grand Cru. I wish I remember what wine we got.
The chocolate cake was amazing.
All the sundaes were great. Listed in order of my favorites: 1. Coffee Chocolate 2.Apricot 3. Kriek Beer. But really, you can't go wrong.
The Baked Alaska is a fun presentation. They set it on fire at your table. The verbena is very strong in this. I preferred the sundaes, though.
The room was open, but somehow it felt claustrophobic. I wasn't a fan of the the decor, but it was fun looking at the pots from all the chefs.
Service was friendly, but slow. The bathroom was dirty.
Add me to the "meh" chorus. But with a caveat: the food was by and large very good. It's just the prices... I have no problem paying a lot of money for food - but I need to see value for price on the plate. And DBGB ain't got it. $17+ for a FIVE OUNCE burger? Seriously? Every bite was delicious, but that's simply ludicrous. Expand the burger to eight ounces - the wholesale cost will increase by, what, 50 cents? As they stand, were they one millimeter smaller you could call them "sliders" - and no one would pay $17 for a slider.
The dogs and sausages, same problem. Small portions for the price. Heck, the hot dogs were nothing more special than you'd get at Crif Dogs, but for nearly double the cost. I'm sorry, but I'm not paying extra just because DB's initials are attached to something. And the portion sizes were so small that, honestly, you'd have to spend nearly as much as you would at Daniel or Cafe Boulud if you actually want to leave full.
Mind you, I'm awful fond of Daniel. I didn't feel bad leaving either his namesake resto or Cafe Boulud or Bistro Moderne. But when I left DBGB I felt... ripped off. Not a good feeling. I may - MAY - be back to try some of the "regular" menu items. But I'm not in any hurry. There's so much to eat in the EV/LES at every price point, that unless radical changes are made, there's no need to go back to a place that left you feeling burned.
Great beer list, yeah - but with DBA just a couple blocks away, why would anyone really give a crap?
re: sgordon
Not that great - won't return. Went at lunchtime when it opened at 12 on the dot. Sat at the bar, friendly enough barmaid, decent beer list (but not overly special considering the multitude of places that now have a bunch of "craft" beers on tap...I was like, yeah decent list but not blown away like some others) ordered the yankee burger with vermont cheddar. Service awful. Took 45 mins for the burger to turn up...I was on the verge of leaving when it finally appeared. Very underwhelmed by it. To begin with, it is quite small...looked smaller then 6oz. Meat was nothing special, I ordered it medium and it came out cooked through but I let it pass as I did not want to wait another hour. It was also way too salty. Seriously over-seasoned. It was accompanied by a small portion of so-so fries that were entirely unremarkable and gone in about 3 bites. No garnish or anything else to accompany. Was about 17 bucks for the pleasure. Massively over-priced and with the dreadful service I won't rush back to this place.
Sounds like a lot of people weren't that impressed with DBGB, but I really like the restaurant and took my family there for dinner when they were in town. Here's the rundown of what we ordered:
- Beaujolaise sausage and merguez sausage with mint (two sausage combo deal) - both sausages were amazing, although when I went with my family, they ran out of the merguez sausage and substituted with a sausage that had Vermont cheddar and hash browns on the side. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the sausage choices
- Cold cucumber soup - refreshing and light, but not something I'd order again.
- Yankee burger with fries - kind of disappointed with the burger (although my friend says I'm crazy for not thinking the burger was amazing). The bun was too heavy and there wasn't enough meat. Also, the burger was a tad on the dry side, even though it was a medium rare (I might have been expecting too much considering I had the black label burger at Minetta a week before)
- Skate - okay, but I think it's prepared much better at a Jean-Georges establishment
- Handmade pasta with vegetables - pasta was cooked a little unevenly, but had a really great flavor and I'd order it again (although that portion was a little small).
I'm not a wine/beer drinking so I didn't order any alcohol, but that menu might've been larger than the food menu! The desserts also looked really good, but I was so stuffed from the sausages, burger, and all the other good food that I couldn't even look at the dessert menu.
Here is a full review and some pictures: http://gracenotesnyc.com/2009/06/11/d...
Just came back from my birthday dinner at DBGB and overall, I had a nice time. First the food. I had the chop-chop salad. It was a salad, but the dressing was addictive, and I enjoyed it. I opted for a sausage for my main--the beaujolaise. This was delicious--loosely-packed and very flavorful. I had a side of fries w/it. I love my fries, so I did "manage" to finish them, but they were a bit limp. I had the apricot pistachio sundae to finish. Overall, the flavors were great, but the house-made ice cream was very icy, much more the texture of sorbet than ice cream. Nevertheless, a great dessert. I didn't get to try my friends' apps, but the bites of the frenchie burger (great, but cooked rare rather than medium rare) and skate I had were very good. Service was not snooty, but definitely left a bit to be desired. They tried to deliver the wrong dish to us twice, fries came out 10 mins after entrees, and because they were having problems with their credit card machine, it took about 15 minutes to get credit cards back. On the way out, we saw Boulud sneaking into a back entrance to the restaurant. He's obviously invested in this project. I chalk the failures up to "working out the kinks." Normally, I'm not so charitable, but because the food I had was enjoyable for the most part, I'll definitely be back.
re: Lucia
Figured i'd follow up my previous post w/snippets from our full review of DBGB here... Still don't get it! Place is awful...
Imagine Restoration Hardware served food, and someone was handing out flyers all over the Upper East Side promoting this hot new furniture store/restaurant downtown where you can bring your second wife after she gets sick of Per Se. Lots of midlife crises on display in this buzzy new Bowery restaurant.
DBGB is definitely an attempt at the gastro pub model - a few burgers on the menu, twenty-some-odd beers on tap, and some fancy things with duck egg thrown in so you don't forget who's running the place. The menu is way too big, and the food was a huge letdown. So much so, that we didn't manage to finish a single dish we ordered ... not even the desserts they comped us as penance for the entrees showing up just minutes after the appetizers. There must have been twelve waiters assigned to our table, and I'm not sure there was one moment of peace without some asshole wiping down the table, re-folding a napkin, or erroneously delivering a third order of fries. What's that? There is a great beer I have to try that tastes like coffee? Get out of my face, I am trying to eat a tiny crab cake.
I'll walk you through it in the food rundown, but the only way I can explain all the rave reviews for DBGB is that by the time you actually sit, you've likely had five pints of beer with the equivalent alcohol percentage of jungle juice. After that, sure, the fourteen dollar asparagus and duck egg appetizer probably seems edible.
Food Rundown:
Asparagus & Fried Egg
Fourteen bucks for fried egg and asparagus? Must have been all that duck prosciutto in there, and by "all that duck prosciutto", I mean that little tiny piece of duck prosciutto. Not good, not worth it.
Spicy Crab Cake
This was the only thing that we ordered that didn't create rage inside me. It's a decent but small crab cake with a curry sauce and an avocado-mango puree.
Vermont "Banger"
Here we are again with a fifteen dollar item ... a "banger" the size of a normal bratwurst. In fairness, it was tasty, but Jimmy Dean pulls this off at ten for a dollar in your local freezer section.
Skate Au Pistou
I don't speak French, but after having this, I am convinced that "au pistou" means, "in lake water". This was a wet piece of skate swimming in a pale green soup that tasted faintly like curry and algae.
Steak Frites
The fries were actually good, the steak ... whatever. Go to Schiller's if you're looking for a good steak frites.
Paleron Carbonade
Another steak - this one a flat iron steak with vegetables. The meat was middle of the road at best, lacking flavor. The vegetables were soft and mushy. Another dish left unfinished at the table.
Baba Au Rhum
This was one of the two comped desserts that came to the table after we paid - a peace offering since our entrees arrived at the table ten minutes after the appetizers. It was essentially a small donut that had been dropped in a bucket of Captain Morgan's and pulled out two days later. It was inedible and tasted like a straight shot of rum. Our waiter asked what we thought, and when we told him it was way too strong he said "I know! I love the boozy desserts". You are awful.
Ice Cream Beer Sundae
We were told this was an ice cream sundae made to taste like beer. It sort of tasted like Dairy Queen made a Blizzard out of warm Bud Light and gummi bears.
Went this weekend with 8 friends. Tried a few of their dishes. Overall my opinion (and the consensus of most of my friends) was:
LOVED the following:
Vermont & Beaujolaise sausages
Piggie Burger
Yankee Burger
Kreik Beer-Cherry dessert
MEH-ed the following:
Octopus La Plancha
Steak Frites (10 oz. Ribeye)
Frenchie Burger
Duck & Cherries
The decor was nice. Numerous chefs gave the place their favorite copper pots/cookware which is on display with their name all around the restaurant towards the ceiling. The best part was meeting Daniel himself. Super nice and genuine. Even took pictures with me and my friends! My friend who works at Food&Wine spoke with him for 15 minutes in French and he did not seem rushed or anything.
I forget what beers and other appetizers, entrees and desserts were ordered/I tasted but I'd definitely go back. It was a good time.
I went with some friends last night and we really liked it. Our friends had been there before for brunch, and I admitted to them I wasn't sure about it after seeing the blah reviews here in CH. But I was pleasantly surprised.
The beer list is great, and I'm especially happy to see they have Hitachino White on tap which I don't see very often. We started with the asparagus and fried egg - yes it's a small portion but the egg makes it quite rich. We also shared two sausages - the Vermont which was nice and loose, and another sausage whose name is totally escaping me at the moment (it was one of the spicy ones I think). Really enjoyed both.
For mains - I had the steak frites which I really liked. I rarely see ribeye in steak frites and for $26 for 10oz it's a steal. Cooked exactly as I wanted at medium rare. Fries were crispy but because of the little cup they serve it in, the bottom ones got cold and limp pretty quick. My fiance had the duck which was delicious. Our friends got burgers - the Piggy and the Frenchie. I had a bite of the Piggy, it was a little messy but fun to have Daisy May's pulled pork and a juicy burger all at the same time.
Dessert we had the hazelnut bittersweet chocolate cake which we thought was good but not great and it definitely didn't feel very bittersweet to us.
I think the exterior design is a little off but liked the way it felt inside and details with the glassware and other furnishings. And we were all really enamored of the bathroom wallpaper which looks like a vintage catalog for a French kitchenware shop (I thought I recognized the name but was mistaken) - we asked our server and he said it was made specially for the restaurant.
I was there recently and also was not blown away. Its a great idea and the menu looks amazing, but I don't think I'd go out of my way to go back.
Had the asparagus with fried egg, the frenchie burger and the piggie burger (split each one). Other people at the table had the bone marrow, the matzoh ball soup and the skate. We split the Toscane sausage. Nothing was really that amazing. The fries that came with the burgers were so over salted, I couldn't eat them. The beer selection was great though.
I guess I'm a purist of sorts but I think pulled pork on a burger is too much. The pork belly which is on the Frenchie burger is a little more understandable but also was too much for me. All the toppings took away from tasting the actual beef.
It was very busy though. And I agree with jgradieoakes that a meal there can go in different directions.
Meh all the way.
Had dinner here tonight. What an odd experience. I've never had 3 different waiters ask me for a drink order. The drinks were delivered to the table next to ours and the waiter managed to spill a good bit of my drink on my neighbor's bread plate. After realizing that he was off a table, he delivered our drinks with a shakey hand. I was ready to walk out after this bizarre start to the night until my wife settled me down. I was confused...this is a Daniel Boulud joint right? He is a ninja. He cares about food. Right?
The food was excellent. The Cucumber Soup and Asparagus/Fried Egg starters were spot on. The other reviewers who complained about the Asparagus starter....wow. You must have been there on an off night. For the next course we shared the Tunisienne and the DB Dog. Both were flavorful, rich, delicious plates. The dog reminded my wife of a Koegel hot dog , a staple of her Michigan youth.
The Marrow was next, followed by the Mussels main course that we shared. Both were spoon-licking good. The tab which included 2 cocktails and 3 beers was $130 before tip, not absurd but certainly not a bargain.
Overall the only major letdown was the service. I have a big problem when the "hipster" waiters are too self-involved to provide quality service. The food runners and busboys were 100x more friendly and appreciative than the skinny jean mafia running the front of the house. Is it not "cool" to be friendly and make eye contact? I really wanted to clank some heads. Can you not get this for $75 a person anymore?
re: PiedmontDave
PiedmontDave - i'll respect your linking of the Asparagus/Fried Egg starter although don't necessarily understand it : )- Just glad we were on the same page about the service. Seriously, is it necessary to have 12 different waiters on your table at once? Absolutely not... especially if they can't get a single thing right.
Went last night with two friends. Felt it was a bit overpriced, but there were some definite winners. Must note that our waitress was SUPER sweet and helpful. As for specific dishes:
Asparagus and Fried egg: nothing special, though the duck proscuitto was pretty delicious.
Fromage de Tete: good, though not mind blowing. We asked for additional bread, which was great (the waitress said they make all the bread at Daniel.)
Toulouse sausage: full of flavor, fresh tasting. Truly enjoyable and worth ordering again. Nice beans served with it, though they weren't quite as creamy as I expected.
Bone Marrow: very nice, though not mind blowing.
Pied de Cochon: pretty fabulous, very rich.
All went very well with the very interesting beer, which was pretty reasonably priced by the liter.
Did not love the Cassis Beer-Yogurt sundae.
I went with my brother a few weeks ago. We had late reservations on, I believe a Saturday. The back room was about as loud as the front room. Excellent service. We both liked our food; my brother complained that it was salty, though. Excellent shoestring fries. His duck with cherries was a very good preparation, though as a personal preference, both of us would have preferred for them to have made it with sour cherries or more vinegar. I wouldn't get the ice cream sundae again. I plan on going back some time to try their charcuterie.

VIDEO: Tech-savvy school kids react to old rotary telephones
These days, most kids are tech-savvy. They are growing up in an age in which computers, smartphones and tablets are household items. So what happens when kids are presented with old rotary phones you might remember from your childhood?
Filmmakers Benny and Rafi Fine from Fine Brothers Productions are known for their "react to" videos, and this time they've created the hilarious "Kids React to Old Rotary Phones."
The video shows school-age kids ranging from 5 to 13 years old trying to figure out how to use an old rotary phone from the 1970s. Some have a basic understanding of how to operate it, while others have no clue at all. Their honest reactions are priceless and this clip is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face.

Dr. Ds Crib Life Mattress Cover
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), which is the leading cause of death in infants from one to six months of age, may be caused by gases coming from dirty crib mattresses. We feel that there is enough compelling evidence supporting this theory to share the information with you.
In short, the theory is that the elements phosphorus, arsenic and antimony, which are present in most crib and bassinet mattresses and covers, as well as in natural products such as sheepskin, may interact with common mildew to produce dangerous gas which may poison susceptible babies.
The solution for blocking exposure to these gases, and thus preventing SIDS, is to cover the mattress with natural-color polyethylene sheeting found at hardware stores. However, we had quite a bit of mail from our readers looking for an actual mattress cover rather than just a flat sheet of plastic.
We tracked one down that was developed by Dr. T.J. Sprott, who did the initial re-search on SIDS and mattresses. I certainly plan to send one as a baby shower gift to every pregnant woman I know from now on!
Again, I want to emphasize that this is still a theory and we're not making any guarantees about this mattress cover, but as you'll read in the article (reprinted from the John R. Lee, M.D. Medical Letter -- see the More Info button), the evidence for its use is very convincing.

Doulton HIP400
This is the most cost-effective solution we've found for filtering fluoride from water with a simple "Do It Yourself" installation. It also filters out lead and other metals, bacteria, chlorine, cryptosporidium, odors, pesticides and herbicides.
The Doulton HIP400 water filter system includes:-- 4 housing assemblies
-- A mounting kit
-- 4 water filtering cartridges which are easily screwed into the housing assemblies
The HIP 400 is a home water filtration system designed for well, surface or chlorinated municipal water which has been treated with fluoride. It is effective for plumbing systems constructed with soldered copper, PVC, galvanized or black iron pipe. The HIP400 water filter is highly effective for homes which are fed by city mains which are lead lined or asbestos concrete reinforced.
Because the Doulton HIP 400 involves four cartridges, it is best used as an under-the-counter water filter system.
The Doulton HIP 400 water filter system is easily cleaned and requires no tools to service.
Price does not include shipping and handling which costs between $21 and $25 for surface mail to the U.S.

Top Notch Water Filter
Not available at this time
Clean water is one of the most basic requirements for good health, and yet virtually all tap water is polluted with toxins that can cause illness. Bacteria, heavy metals, industrial waste products, and pesticides contaminate surface and ground water, and in addition, municipal water contains added chlorine and often, fluoride.
You can buy bottled water, but it's expensive and inconvenient. The simple and cost-effective solution for most people is an in-home water filter. In response to many letters and phone calls asking us to recommend a good water filter, we did our research and found a relatively inexpensive, easy-to-install, yet highly effective ceramic filter that does a great job in most homes. And yes, it tastes great too!
The basic Doulton water filters have a three-stage ceramic system that reduces bacteria, heavy metals, industrial toxins such as PCBs, and pesticides. The cartridges on the models we're offering last for about a year for a family of four.
Water Test Kit for Pollutants
Bacteria, lead, chlorine, pesticides, hardness, pH and nitrates/nitrites
WATERSAFE Drinking Water Test Kit
The All-In-One Do-It-Yourself Drinking Water Test
After testing many water test kits, this is the most accurate, simple and cost-effective one we've found. The Watersafe Drinking Water Test kit comes complete with all that you need to determine whether your water contains unsafe or undesirable levels of these common water pollutants: bacteria, lead, pesticides, nitrates/nitrites, chlorine, hardness and pH.
Test for these Contaminants in Your Water
Bacteria: Strains of E. Coli cause serious illness or death, especially in children.
Lead: This heavy metal causes developmental damage in children, as well as neurological and kidney damage in all ages.
Pesticides: They're everywhere, and are linked to increased cancer rates, and are xenoestrogenic pollutants. This test is for atrazine and simazine, two of the most common pesticides used in the U.S.
Nitrates/nitrites: Come from fertilizers and animal waste. They can developmental problems in children.
Chlorine: By-products can increase cancer risk; it's bad for your skin and eyes, and it makes your water taste and smell bad.
Hardness: Causes lime scale and higher detergent use.
pH: High acidity in your water can cause lead and other heavy metals to leach from pipes and water mains, and can also damage your plumbing.

Daughters Are Precious
My morning reading in the Hindustan Times today. A new column by actor-activist Amir Khan. He writes:
Every conceivable reason that I have come across during our research of people explaining why they want a boy and not a girl as a daughter does not seem to make any sense to me. For instance, "if we have a girl then at the time of her marraige we have to pay dowry", or "a girl cannot perform the last rites after the death of her parents, or near and dear ones", or "the girl can't take the vansh, or family forward"…All these are man-made reasons. We have created dowry and are now killing the girl child as if she is responsible for it. We have decided for ourselves that girls can't perform last rites and then we say the girl is to blame."

Former U.S. Rep. Jim Marshall, a Democratic casualty of a GOP surge last November, gave his staffers hefty bonuses on his way out of office, according to today's Macon Telegraph – as did retiring U.S. Rep. John Linder:
According to an analysis by LegiStorm, a nonpartisan organization that tracks congressional money matters, after losing his re-election bid, Marshall doled out more than $230,000 more in salary than in previous quarters — money that was then divided among 17 departing staffers.
In some cases, the staffers had taken leave to work on his campaign.
Marshall's was one of the largest percentages of payroll increases of all outgoing members of Congress.
"This is common practice for representatives," said Doug Moore, a former Marshall spokesman. "When people lose an election and it was not something they were expecting, they have to let their whole staff go. Jim was always very clear with regard to salary. He never paid top of the line for salary even for Capitol Hill. The caveat was, 'If I lose, I effectively will give you a severance.' It's the same thing in corporate America."
Marshall, like colleagues on both sides of the aisle, paid staffers bonuses, but he also returned a small amount of unused money from his salary budget to the U.S. Treasury.
Similarly, retired Rep. John Linder, R-Duluth, gave out more than $170,000 more in salary to staffers than in the previous quarters.

Well hell, not likes it not "free" money anyway. We don't have to worry about ever paying back the "free" money that our politicians love to spread around and throw at things.

First of all, what does corporate America have to do with government? Corporate makes a profit and government does not. Furthermore, corporate America is greedy and unethical. Is that what we want from our government? Why do people keep trying to compare the two? I really don't want my government run like a corporation. I want a government for the people by the people.

Yes, that is an excellent reason just like I smoke dope because everybody else does. This is what is wrong with politicians. How about doing something that very few politicians ever do???
"When people lose an election and it was not something they were expecting…"
Maybe the moron Marshall & his staff should have been more in touch with their constituents and they would have expected the expected.
'If I lose, I effectively will give you a severance.' It's the same thing in corporate America."
This guy is more out of touch than an alien who visits earth for the 1st time. Corporate America often times does not pay a severance package to those who are laid off.

The difference is that Linder gave out the salaries and they were not let go. There were no severence payments – they all were hired by Woodall. Sounds like a reasonable use of taxpayer money from Marshall (severences) and a criminal use of taxpayer dollars from Linder. Woodall should bear some blame for taking the money himself. Ahhhhh – politicians!!

No Plan B: Why Is the Indian Health Service Denying Native American Women Access to Emergency Contraception?
Written by Sofia Resnick for RH Reality Check. This diary is cross-posted; commenters wishing to engage directly with the author should do so at the original post.
Published in partnership with the American Independent.
"No, ma'am," says the pharmacy tech over the phone at the Choctaw Nation's health clinic in Hugo, Okla., when I ask if the clinic carries emergency contraception.
At the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Health Services clinic in Dowagiac, Mich., the pharmacy tech who answers the phone tells me the clinic does not carry Plan B or any other emergency contraceptive that can prevent pregnancy up to 72 hours following unprotected sex, failed contraception, or sexual assault. And no, she doesn't know the nearest place to get any.
The person filling in at the Black Hawk Health Center in Stroud, Okla., after checking with staff, tells me the clinic does not carry any emergency contraceptive. He suggests trying Stroud Drug or the Walgreens or CVS in Edmond, about an hour drive from Stroud. I could also try the Walmart in Shawnee, he says.
I learn from the Citizen Potawatomi Nation tribal clinic in Shawnee that it does not carry emergency contraception either; though again, I'm referred to Walgreens, CVS, and Walmart.
Were I a Native American woman — which I'm not — I would have less incentive to go to a retail pharmacy like one at Walmart or CVS. Because at a pharmacy affiliated with the Indian Health Service — a federal agency that provides health services for American Indians and Alaska Natives — emergency contraception, like most medication, would be free. And even if I did have the fifty or so dollars it might cost for the so-called "morning-after pill," I might not have a way to get to a retail pharmacy, if I don't have a car or if I live on an isolated reservation.
About a month ago, I reproduced an informal phone survey originally conducted last September by the Native American Women's Health Education Resource Center, based in Lake Andes, South Dakota. I called the same 63 centers (though I was not able to reach every one), all funded by IHS, asking the questions asked in the original survey: Does your pharmacy carry Plan B or another emergency contraceptive? And is it offered over the counter? I did not identify myself as a reporter.
Though some of the pharmacies contacted in that original survey, and in my own reproduction, said they offered emergency contraception over the counter, more often pharmacy techs or pharmacists said that either their clinics offered the drug by prescription-only, or not at all. In all, the NAWHERC study found that only 11 percent of the pharmacies surveyed carried emergency contraception over the counter, about half carried emergency contraception but required a prescription and a doctor's visit, and about 43 percent of the pharmacies contacted did not carry Plan B at all.

Pasta Entrées
Pasta with Roasted Vegetables and Olives
This easy and delectable dish combines roasted eggplant, peppers, and broccoli with pasta. It's perfect for cool weather months, when you want something comforting yet not too heavy, with plenty of flavorful veggies. Serve with a big salad to which chickpeas or beans have been added, and a crusty bread. Adapted from Vegan Express. Photo by Susan Voisin, FatFree Vegan Kitchen. more→
Pasta with Celery, Kale, and Walnut Gremolata
Gremolata is a mess of chopped herbs, lemon zest, olive oil, breadcrumbs or nuts, with a nubbly texture somewhere between a relish and sauce. Here it's tossed with nutrient-rich kale, celery and whole wheat angel hair for a summer dish bright with flavor, color and crunch. Recipe and photo by Ellen Kanner. more→
Pasta with Greens, Chickpeas, and Olives
This quick and nourishing year-round pasta recipe calls for chard, kale, or spinach, but you can use a combination or even substitute broccoli rabe or mustard greens. My personal favorite in this dish is chard, as it's so good in the Italian-style trio of pasta with greens and legumes. Just add a colorful salad and you've got a meal. Recipe from Wild About Greens* by Nava Atlas.
Mexican Sopa Seca De Fideo (Vermicelli "Dry Soup")
Sopa seca, or "dry soup," is a common course in traditional Mexican meals, is not really a soup at all, though making it does start with a broth that is then entirely cooked away. Often, fideo (a type of fine pasta that resembles a small nest) is used. Fideo noodles are available in specialty markets and in well-stocked supermarkets.
Vermicelli with Broccoli, Raisins, and Pine Nuts
This dish is great for a family dinner but would also be a good addition to a pot luck or barbecue. For a colorful meal, serve with Chickpea Salad with Roasted Red Peppers, Tomatoes and Basil. more→
Pasta with Asparagus and Marinated Artichoke Hearts
This simple pasta dish, filled with flavorful asparagus and artichokes, is sure to please in late spring and early summer. This can be served warm or at room temperature. Serve with a salad featuring chickpeas (I especially like this with Chickpea Salad with Roasted Peppers, Tomatoes, and Basil) and fresh corn on the cob. Photos by Rachael Braun. more→
Noodles with Garlicky Black Bean Sauce
Savory seasoned black beans make a delightful sauce for tender noodles. more→
Harvest Medley Pasta
Though this dish calls for only a half-pound of pasta, it's so chock-full of vegetables (as well as kidney beans) that it makes a heaping quantity. It's a great dish to make in very late summer or early fall. Have all the vegetables cut and ready to cook before beginning to cook the pasta. more→

No, the rich do not pay all the taxes
Wealthy Americans contribute most of the levies collected from federal personal income. But that's not the whole story.
This post comes from Josh Barro at partner site Business Insider.
CNBC ran a story Thursday with the headline "The rich do not pay the most taxes, they pay ALL the taxes."
The story has thousands of Facebook shares. And its premise is completely false.
The article goes on to present data regarding the federal personal income tax, which is indeed paid almost entirely by people with high incomes. People with low incomes pay negative federal personal income taxes (that is, the government sends them checks) because of the earned income tax credit.
But "taxes" are not the same thing as "federal personal income taxes." The federal personal income tax only made up 28 percent of all U.S. government tax collections in 2012. Federal, state and local governments collected $4 trillion in taxes last year; just $1.1 trillion of that was federal personal income tax.
And people with low incomes who don't pay federal personal income tax do pay lots of those other taxes: payroll tax, state income tax, sales tax, property tax, excise taxes, and more. They pay other taxes indirectly: Workers bear the burden of employer-paid payroll taxes and part of the burden of corporate income taxes.
Here's a chart I made earlier this year showing the distribution of the tax burden when you add all the taxes together. Earners in the top 1 percent pay about 43 percent of their incomes in tax. People in the middle quintile pay 25 percent. The poorest fifth pays 13 percent.
Rich people do pay a lot more taxes than poor people, both in absolute terms and as a percentage of income. But the rich are not paying all the taxes. And looking just at the federal personal income tax and trying to draw conclusions about who pays "taxes" will lead you to wrong answers.
P.S. While it's true that rich people pay most federal personal income taxes, to get to CNBC's claim that they pay "all" federal personal income taxes, you have to use a really expansive definition of "rich."
The Congressional Budget Office finds that payments by the top 40 percent of the income distribution exceed the total of all net federal income tax collections. (This is because many poor people have negative federal income tax bills.) But that top 40 percent group includes single people with incomes as low as $51,100 and couples with incomes of $72,300. Those people aren't poor but it's a real stretch to say they're rich.
More from Business Insider:
- This is what $1 trillion looks like
- Here's why the FCC should allow cellphone use on airplanes
- 11 tips for finding work shoes that fit
So, when you want to write a story that poor people pay more than what everyone thinks, you count all taxes instead of just income taxes. But when you want to write a story that business pays little to no taxes, you count only income taxes and ignore every other tax that they do pay.
So which is it? Do we count all the taxes or only income taxes?
On October 14, you published an article with the headline, "Rich folks whine more about their mortgage". Your definition of "rich" was any household in the top 25%. The top 25% is any household grossing more than $89,000 a year. You play just as fast and loose with "rich" as the people you are criticizing.
And, yes, spending is much more of a problem then the amount of taxes paid by Americans. If the fed takes in more money, it simply spends more. And, if there isn't enough to supply the pork barrels and special interests, they borrow. Then, we have the interest on the borrowed money to deal with as well. No matter how you want to spin this thing, it comes down to overspending and wasteful spending.
It's becomes a Insult to Christianity when we preach to others one thing and do another. If your Wealth meant the demise of others, not liking that person has little to do with envy. I love the Concept of Free Market Capitalism. However what we have instead is a corrupt Family and Friends network that is tittering on the Edge of Collapse. The Proof, Too Big To Fail, Too Big to Jail. But sure, some folks are find and dandy about that. Figures.
