Shaffer Smith has been writing material for mainstream acts since the tail end of the '90s, when he was barely old enough to drive. In 2004, after he adopted the name Ne-Yo -- a sensible move since his birth name is more like that of a sitcom actor or anchorman than an R&B loverman -- his industry stock shot way up for co-writing Mario's "Let Me Love You," an inescapable number one hit. The pointedly titled In My Own Words is the second album he has made as a solo artist, but it's the first to be released, and its presentation clearly intends to get the point across that he's a writer, with images of lyric sheets strewn across the accompanying booklet, and the photo props of choice are pencils and pads, not practically naked models and probably rented sports cars. In My Own Words is a concise album with only one guest verse (from Peedi Peedi), unless you count the unlisted bonus remix (featuring Ghostface). It's very focused and surprisingly taut, especially for a debut that involves several producers. "So Sick," a hit single released in advance of the album, carries a vulnerability not unlike "Let Me Love You" -- it's certainly additional proof that Ne-Yo does heartache best of all -- but it's even more successful at staying on the right side of the line that separates heartfelt anguish from insufferable whining. Its modern approach, interlocked with touches of '70s and '80s R&B sensibilities, is also in effect for the entirety of the album. Beyond a couple lightweight tracks, the album only falters when scenarios from different relationships clash: in "Get Down Like That," Ne-Yo is a righteous boyfriend who turns down the advances of a tempting ex, while in "That Just Ain't Right," he confesses to an ex (who has been an ex for three years) that he calls out her name while in bed with his current lover. The problems, however, really aren't all that detrimental. Ne-Yo is a real talent as a songwriter, and as a vocalist he is unmistakably more concerned with serving the song than his ego. He's not the flashiest vocalist, but he's able to put across contrasting emotions with slight adjustments, and he balances toughness with tenderness exceptionally well -- all of which are uncommon traits in the early 2000s. This album could turn out to be the most impressive R&B debut of 2006, as well as one of several milestones in a lengthy career.

The Boxwood Cube began as a way for Los Angeles landscape designer Sean Knibb to incorporate seating into his gardens that was chic, colorful, and portable. "I was using outdoor fabric to cover hay bales," says Knibb, "but I got tired of hauling hay around. I wanted something a little lighter." Knibb's furniture line, SK1, seems a natural segue for a designer who "just fell in love with the world of landscapes," while attending Otis Art Institute of Parsons School of Design. He has been building his all-encompassing portfolio—interiors, gardens, and furniture—ever since. Like its designer, the seat transitions gracefully between indoors and out. "We're using it on patios and lawns, and some people are using it in living rooms as a seating option," he says. Made of Sunbrella fabric fitted over a block of outdoor foam—not common boxwood, a nickname drawn from the cube's resemblance to a well-trimmed hedge—the cube is available in six different patterns. It brightens up a garden's darkest corners, adding a splash of color wherever it goes. $600; available from Knibb Design (knibbdesign.com).

Arkema to Produce PVDF Resins in China
September 29, 2010 | Deepti Ramesh
Arkema says that in early 2011, the company will start production of its Kynar polyvinyledene fluoride (PVDF) resins at a new plant in the company's site at Changshu, China. Arkema says it sees this region as being key to its ongoing business development strategy, and the new plant will bring Arkema closer to its Asian customers. PVDF resins are used in a wide range of applications, including highly weatherable coatings, high performance lithium ion batteries, and photovoltaic panels. Arkema announced last week that it will invest $30 million to construct a...

There was a holein the wall, room was smoky, dingy and dirty. Incredibly cheap and outdated
The room was clean and the bed was comfortable enough for one night.
The grounds were just a giant gravel field with an ancient rusting construction trailer (the hotel was far from new), the exterior of the building had not been maintained in decades, and there were random pallets and debris strewn about the periphery. The stairs were exterior and rusty. The price was too hight for what I got.
Nice room, hot breakfast, close to the town, complimentary bikes, limo ride.. Everything about this place is good..
The limo service,cleanliness, friendly staff, breakfast, windshield washing, complimentary water and apple at departure makes this a top notch hotel!
Friendly staff, nice room for the price, close to downtown
Friendly staff.
Small bathroom. Not enough tables to accommodate everyone in the cafeteria.
Clean, comfortable rooms
Friendly staff
Coffee always available in the lobby
Room was very spacious and loved the patio walkout with the bay view.
Interior design, colors, finishes etc.
Quaint hotel! Great service, friendly staff. Will definitely be back.
terrific locale -- right in the heart of downtown Petosey. It's walkable to shops and restaurants.
the amenities, furniture and rooms left much to be desired. Yes, it's a boutique hotel, but it felt like my wife and I had broken into a 100 year old woman's attic and were sleeping on a family heirloom straw bed. Nothing was comfortable (or clean). The TV was smaller and older than my parents' computer monitor. I'm not sure what my $250+ "deal" paid for.
The Perry is a great old hotel experience. Just a wonderful spot in an amazing town.
It should be rated better than a 2 star rate. The layout of the room was very good. I found everything we needed. The food they had to choose from for breakfast was very good.
The breakfast room could a bit larger.
Privacy was good.
Hotel was outdated and could have been cleaner.
Everything. Loved the room. Loved being able to be shuttled to the mountain. Very relaxing with the fireplace.
A good night sleep. Hotel is under renovation.

Question: How does the principle of a 20mm thru axle work in relation to the hub?
Or to say it in other words: How is play between the hub, axle and fork eliminated?
With a taditional QR setup the two legs of the fork are pressed axially against the faces of the axle. This way the axle of the hub is totally free of play in relation to the fork.
As far as I know (with a Fox fork) the fork-axle runs through the hub-axle and the fork-axle gets clamped om both sides with some sort of quick release lever which does not press anything in the axial direction.
This means i.m.h.o. that if there is only a small amount of radial play between the fork-axle and hub-axle or if there is axial play between the hub-axle and the fork this will result in a wheel that rattles in the fork.
Is my statement correct or not? Please enlighten me on this subject for I am considering to setup a bike with a 20mm thru axle.
Thanks in advance for your expertise on this matter.

NFL: Thanksgiving has a special resonance for Oakland defensive back DJ Hayden
We look at the astonishing story of Oakland defensive back DJ Hayden
By Andy Charles
Last Updated: 26/11/13 6:55pm
Hayden was recently placed on Injured Reserve by the Raiders after suffering a groin injury on November 6, a date that is bound to live long in the memory of the 23-year-old NFL rookie.
For it was precisely 12 months earlier that not just Hayden's career in the professional ranks, but his life, came so close to being cut short in a freak practice field clash no one could have ever have predicted would result in such serious consequences.
Hayden was going through a regulation practice session with the University of Houston's collegiate team when his life changed...we'll let him take on the story.
He told Sky Sports: "It was just a regular day in practice and me and Trevon Stewart, we just ran into each other.
"His knee hit me in the chest and I thought I just had the wind knocked out of me. It was a funny feeling, like the wind knocked out of me, but something else. Mike 'Doc' O'Shea, our trainer, took me in just out of instinct, asked me all these questions.
"I'm like, I can't see a thing, I can't see. My left eye goes pitch dark, I can't see and I start panicking, hyper-ventilating and stuff.
"They put me in an ambulance, they rushed me to the hospital for a scan on my stomach and they see a lot of blood."
The man who dealt with that blood was Dr Ron Albarado of the Memorial Hermann Texas Trauma Institute, thankfully not too far from the UH practice field, and he found things were nothing like he had expected.
Albarado anticipated a liver or spleen problem, the sort of trauma you might expect from a football injury when the abdomen is mentioned, but a scan told him some kind of surgery would be needed...what they found when Hayden's sternum was opened up was very different - scarily so.
He said: "The main blood vessel, the vena cava, bringing blood from the lower extremities back to the heart, was nearly completely torn from the heart.
"The situation changes drastically at that point and he didn't really have much of his original blood in his body. A small delay would have equalled death."
The injuries were rated serious enough to give Hayden a 5% chance of survival, and Albarado took up the story further in an interview with NFL.com, saying: "I kept my fingers on the vena cava to buy us time.
"He was five minutes away from dying by the time we got to the heart. He had very little reserve. He had the stress of a major operation. Essentially, open-heart surgery.
"This was a non-survivable injury, unless everything works absolutely perfectly."
At this special time when people give thanks, thankfully for Hayden everything did work absolutely perfectly, to use Dr Albarado's term, and unbelievably, such was the speed of his recovery, his hospital stay lasted only six days.
"Then, I just wanted to do whatever I've got to do to keep me breathing," Hayden continued.
"I never had any nightmares about it. I just feel like it was a part of God's plan, part of what he had in store for me.
"It has made me appreciate a lot, just the little stuff I try not to take for granted. I know everything in this life is not guaranteed, everything on this earth is temporary. I just try to make the best of it while I am here. If I was to be gone today, I could know I did what I wanted to do."
The recovery when he was back at home was tough. Hayden struggled to make it up a flight of stairs without having to rest, but his will and desire to make it as a professional football player shone through.
He was soon back at team meetings with his college colleagues and his survival, for that was how close his scare was, was celebrated at their senior day when every player wore a jersey with 'HAYDEN' emblazoned on the back.
Just over four months after he left hospital, about eight months ahead of the schedule for such surgery, he was able to take part in a UH Pro Day, his chance to impress NFL scouts and hopefully find one of the 32 teams that would be willing to take him on. He ran 40 yards in 4.3 seconds - elite speed for any footballer, let alone a defensive back, let alone one who had been through such pain and stress.
Hayden was, at the time of his injury, one of the top cornerbacks who would be eligible for the draft but no-one knew how far his stock would fall. The Raiders, though, were not prepared to risk him dropping too far and selected him with pick No 12.
The Raiders; the team a lot of fans love to hate. Oakland fans, with their somewhat unique way of supporting their players. But most importantly for Hayden, being in Oakland gave him the chance to line up with an all-time hero, fellow defensive back Charles Woodson.
He said: "It felt great for them to draft me and for them to believe in me, not to hold my situation against me. I'm glad they chose me.
"I used to watch Charles Woodson's highlight tapes. I would watch him when I was little, he was my favourite defensive back, one of my favourite players, and it's just crazy for me to be in the same meeting room, me taking notes, him taking notes.
"I can ask him anything and he is willing to help me out. He's a great resource."
And now Hayden has to look to the future again, as he gets ready to start his recovery from slightly less serious sports hernia surgery.
Among his reasons for a quick recovery is a trip to Wembley Stadium next year with the Raiders being part of the NFL International Series - they face the Miami Dolphins in one of three games on the schedule for 2014.
He added: "I'm excited I've never been out of America so for me to go to London I am really loving that. I think it will be really cool."
No doubt a lovely trip to England's capital is a reason for D.J. Hayden to give thanks on Thursday but, based on his experience of the last 12 months, it is probably not the main one.
Watch coverage of the NFL's Thanksgiving programme on Thursday on Sky Sports 1. Packers at Lions starts at 17:30, followed by Hayden's Raiders at the Cowboys and finally the Steelers at the Ravens - all in all 11 hours of gridiron action.

Having anticipated last week for so long, some Cheltenham diehards will be appalled to discover that a new Flat season opens at Doncaster on Friday. Others, however, will recognise that so rich a banquet can only really be followed by a total change of taste – even if Town Moor is set to provide conditions better suited to steeplechasing.
By definition, with the last three winners all lining up, the field can only be rated as well up to standard. Yet the first championship race of the week somehow feels a little stale. Much of the form in the Stan James Champion Hurdle has an incestuous look, and would certainly have obtained a different flavour from a rising force like Darlan or My Tent Or Yours. Tragedy claimed the former, of course, while the latter has been restored to novice company in the opener. In their absence, the race becomes an aggregate of conundrums.

A first start over three miles in the Lexus Chase, in testing ground, requires him to disclose a doughtiness to match his brilliance. If he proves equal to the challenge, every neutral will join his connections in their dream of landing the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup.

This could prove one of those occasions when there is no point complicating matters. Long Run, beaten only by the record-breaking Kauto Star in three Boxing Day starts over the course, is much the most likely winner of the William Hill King George VI Chase at Kempton tomorrow. And while the retirement of Kauto Star, who won the race for a fifth time last year, suggests the time is ripe for a changing of the guard, it is surely premature to make too much of the anomaly that Long Run – in approaching only his eighth birthday – increasingly represents the old order.

The ImmuKnow(R) and anti-HLA antibody assays both contribute to
characterization of renal transplant patients being weaned off
COLUMBIA, Md., June 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Data developed by Cylex in conjunction with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, and presented today at the American Transplantation Congress in Toronto, Canada, suggest that cell-mediated immunity and anti-HLA antibody assays may be independent measures of different facets of the immune response (at least in renal transplant patients).
"Cell-mediated immunity, as measured with Cylex's ImmuKnow test, may indicate the effectiveness of augmented immunosuppression and the risk of viral infections," said Brad Stewart, president of Cylex. "By contrast, levels of anti-HLA antibodies may determine the risk for antibody-mediated rejection. In renal transplant patients who are being weaned from immunosuppression, it seems that both assays may contribute independently to characterize these patients."
Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center have independently shown that immune function, assessed using the ImmuKnow assay for cell-mediated immunity, may correlate with decreased immunosuppression in a cohort of renal transplant recipients enrolled in a protocol of immunosuppression minimization using depletion induction and monotherapy.(1) They have also determined humoral sensitization by assessing the circulating anti-HLA antibodies.(2) The current study ("Relationship between immune function and humoral sensitization in renal transplant recipients;" see abstract no. 974) was designed to assess the relationship between immune function and the level of humoral sensitization in serially matched samples.
The ImmuKnow assay of cell-mediated immunity is used to measure the
degree of immune activation of CD4+ T-cell function. Circulating anti-HLA
antibodies were determined by ELISA and expressed as per

Cumulus clouds
Cumulus clouds
Cumulus clouds are clouds that are piled up on top of each other. "Cumulus" means a pile in Latin, as in our word "accumulate" meaning to pile up. They are puffy clouds. Sometimes cumulus clouds are white and there are only a few of them in the sky; other times they can be heavy and gray.
Usually you get cumulus clouds when warm air rises from the ground carrying water vapor with it by evaporation. When the warm wet air rises up and meets some cold air, the water vapor gets colder and condenses into drops of water, making a cloud.
More cumulus clouds
When cumulus clouds are white and puffy, that usually means it's not going to rain right away. But if they grow into big gray clouds, you can expect rain.

Two subsidiaries of Melville-based Comtech Telecommunications have each netted multimillion dollar contract orders for solid-state power amplifiers used in radar, missiles and communication systems.
Comtech's Santa Clara, Calif.-based subsidiary, Comtech Xicom Technology, recently received a $2.9 million order for its XTS-40X-B1 outdoor solid-state power amplifier, which provides high data-rate uplinks for rugged, compact, transportable military satellite-communications terminals.
The second order comes from the U.S. Navy through Comtech's Melville subsidiary, Comtech PST Corp. The order, valued at up to $9.2 million is part of a five-year basic ordering agreement for solid-state, high-power amplifiers.

Jefferson Davis County in southwest Mississippi has the distinction of being named after Confederate States of America President Jefferson Davis. That's good or bad, depending on whether you regard what occurred between 1861 and 1865 as the Civil War or as the War Between the States.
Jefferson Davis County may soon have another distinction as the place where a serious national legal effort to push back against vote fraud was launched.
On Friday, three former U.S. Justice Department attorneys filed lawsuits in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi seeking an order to compel election officials in Jefferson Davis County, as well as in nearby Walthall County, to clean up their voter rolls.
Like hundreds of counties around the nation, these two have more active registered voters than there are age-eligible residents, a perfect recipe for making sure the dead or otherwise departed get a chance to vote again and again.
Citing 2010 U.S. census data and voter-registration records, the lawsuit states that Jefferson Davis County has 10,078 active voters, but only 9,536 age-eligible citizens. "More than 105 percent of living citizens old enough to vote were registered to vote in Jefferson Davis County in 2013," the lawsuit says.
Walthall County has 14,108 registered voters, but only 11,368 age-eligible citizens, which means that 124 percent of Walthall's eligible voters are registered. Not a good set of numbers if you're concerned about vote fraud.
On behalf of the American Civil Rights Union and its supporters in Mississippi, the lawsuits filed by attorneys J. Christian Adams, Christopher Coates and Henry Ross also ask the court to order election officials to provide records and data for public inspection as required by Section 8 of the National Voter Registration Act, better known as the Motor Voter Law.
The lawsuits are part of the American Civil Rights Union's Election Integrity Defense Project, among whose architects are Edwin Meese III, a former U.S. attorney general under President Reagan, and J. Kenneth Blackwell, former Ohio secretary of state.
Mr. Adams and Mr. Coates resigned their posts in the Voting Section of the Justice Department in 2010. They testified to the U.S. Civil Rights Commission that the Obama administration was blatantly biased, as exemplified by dismissing voter-intimidation charges against New Black Panther Party members at a Philadelphia polling station in 2008. On April 16, Mr. Adams testified before the House Judiciary Committee as to how the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division under Assistant Attorney General Thomas Perez has overlooked criminal behavior within its ranks while refusing to enforce Section 8. The Mississippi lawsuits are a way of doing the job that Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr.'s staff won't do.
Looking over the electoral landscape, it's clear that a more robust effort to force officials to ensure electoral integrity is long overdue. Every fraudulent vote cancels out a legitimately cast ballot and undermines confidence in our electoral system.
In 2007, citing clear evidence of vote fraud, a court in southwest Mississippi overturned a Democratic primary election for circuit clerk — in Jefferson Davis County. Circuit Judge Forrest Johnson found at least 26 instances of voting irregularities.
"In that election, dead people voted, as did a person who was in a hospital the entire day two counties over from Jefferson Davis County," wrote state Sen. Joey Fillingane, a chief sponsor of the state's photo-ID law, which has been halted by the U.S. Justice Department for nearly a year. "The problem is real, and a strong voter-ID law is part of the solution."
The other part of the solution is compelling election officials to follow the law, clean up voter rolls and make the process transparent.
No stranger to Mississippi, where he investigated voting practices while working for the Justice Department, Mr. Adams, under the auspices of the American Civil Rights Union, sent letters in January to election officials seeking data that must be made available under Section 8. He never got an answer.
The two counties are demographically and politically the flip-side of each other. Walthall County has a majority-white population of 15,400 and voted 54 percent for Mitt Romney to 45 percent for Barack Obama in 2012. Jefferson Davis County, with a majority-black population of 12,500, voted 62 percent for Mr. Obama and 37 percent for Mr. Romney.

"So I have spent my vacation days the past several years visiting family, and don't get me wrong I love my family but some times you need a vacation to yourself. At this condo I got just that! My husband and I were in paradise for the week. The condo is immaculate and just as the pictures look. It was so clean when we arrived, there wasn't any sand in the condo, which was impressive! You walk out the sliding glass door and right in front of you is the pool and to your right is the beach. It was so perfect and quiet. Everything you need for the beach is right there waiting for you. My husband fell asleep under the umbrella in the chair with a pillow, while I laid out listened to the ocean and caught up on some reading. I'm in grad school so I was relieved to find the wifi super fast and I was able to keep up with my school-work. The beach was public but might as well have been private (very few people around). I turned 28 while we were there and because it was only about an hour away we went to Harry Potter world for the day (so convenient). Management was helpful and the owners are great! Chris was super helpful before booking and worked with us some AND I forgot my electric toothbrush and he mailed it to me! I don't think I can't say enough good things about this place. On a side note our favorite restaurant was Third Wave on Flagler Ave (phenomenal!). Close seconds are Norwoods and So Napa. Don't miss your chance, Book right now!"Guest: Beth Anne J.

"We had a fabulous time and took advantage of many of your recommendations from your guest book. We went kayaking at JB's across the street and were paid a little visit by some of the neighborhood manatees. My 3 boys boogey boarded all day, every day, and that's all they talked about. The location is phenomenal. The view of the ocean through the floor to ceiling glass across the entire back wall of the living room and the master bedroom was breathtaking. Having our coffee every morning on the balcony, and then going for a morning sunrise run into the Canaveral Seashore National Park was perfect. We had a blast and were very sad to leave."Guest: Steve and Meredith Date of Stay: September 2015 Review Submitted: September 8, 2015View listing
"This place was a very nice place to stay. Me and my girls had a blast. We would enjoy staying there again. VERY great place to take a family. Good access to the beach and the pool was very convenient. The nature trail was a nice touch as well. Two thumbs up."Guest: Will Date of Stay: July 2015 Review Submitted: August 18, 2015View listing
"We loved this beautiful condo. Fully stocked with everything we could want. We loved the location and it is so convenient to the beach. It's a smaller complex so the beach was less crowded and it is in the no drive section. The owner was a dream to work with. Quick with responses and answers. She even recommended some great local restaurants. We would love to stay in this condo again and highly recommend."Guest: Candy L. Date of Stay: May 2015 Review Submitted: May 25, 2015View listing

I've enjoyed and benefited from being a member of IAAO and participating in numerous IAAO meetings and events over the past 30 years. I think IAAO exceeds the usual service that associations provide to their members by continuously promoting and recognizing best practices through its up-to-date standards, education programs, and research efforts.

President Obama thinks some people make too much money, and he intends to do something about it. Armed with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street regulation bill he pushed through Congress in 2009, the Securities and Exchange Commission is poised to stoke the flames of class envy by shaming CEOs who earn "too much" money.
The commission is taking comments on proposed implementation of rules that will force companies to disclose the "compensation ratio" of its top employees. If the average salary at Acme Widget Corp. is $50,000, and the CEO makes $605,000, a ratio of 12.1 to 1 would be reported. It sounds simple, but for large multinational corporations the mandate becomes complicated very quickly. Payment of foreign-based employees changes with exchange rates for various currencies. Companies with subsidiaries often use multiple payroll systems. Seasonal employees wouldn't be counted unless they happen to be on the payroll on the day the report is calculated.
Companies would have some discretion in figuring the pay-ratio formula, such as deciding whether to "annualize" certain hourly employees. As SEC Chairman Mary Jo White explains, "This proposal would provide companies significant flexibility in complying with the disclosure requirement while still fulfilling the statutory mandate."
This means the human resources departments will run the numbers in whatever way to make the company look good. The exercise is pointless. A salary ratio of 12.1 to 1, or 121 to 1, or 1,210 to 1, has no bearing on a company's market performance. CEO salaries are already on the record for public companies, so this requirement doesn't disclose anything new, except mountains of compliance paperwork. This is a scheme to force companies to generate a statistic to argue for higher taxation on the "evil rich."
Sheryl Sandberg, the chief operating officer of Facebook, earned a salary and bonus of $605,000 last year, but her actual pay was far more generous: $821 million from shares of Facebook that vested in that year, as well as an additional $25.6 million in stock. So the ratio of 12.1 to 1, assuming a "median" Facebook employee salary of $50,000 a year, would be meaningless if it didn't include Ms. Sandberg's stock value.
Shareholders are generous with CEO pay, for what they consider good reason. The assembly-line worker's day ends when the whistle blows. Top management officials take on legal responsibilities for the entire enterprise; a wrong decision can land them on the street or even in prison. A CEO's role is so crucial to the company that the Securities and Exchange Commission considers the health of top company officers a "material" fact that must be fully disclosed.
This rule promises to be about as useful as a tissue-paper umbrella. It's the job of shareholders, not the government, to determine how much pay for a CEO is too much. Greed is a natural part of human nature, and CEOs are as subject to temptation as any of their employees, but the government could save money by leaving business unencumbered by unnecessary regulation, such as this ratio rule, and enable them to grow, flourish, create profits and jobs.

The White House retreated Wednesday from President Obama's vow to veto any short-term increase in the nation's debt limit, opening the door wider to a bipartisan Senate compromise plan to boost borrowing for now in exchange for a promise by Congress to cut spending later.
"If both sides agree to something significant, we will support the measures needed to finalize details," said presidential spokesman Jay Carney. "We believe a short-term extension absent an agreement to a larger deal is unacceptable."
Last week, Mr. Obama declared unequivocally that he would not sign a temporary extension of the debt ceiling. He called the interim approach a shaky way for the U.S. to "manage our affairs."
When House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, Virginia Republican, urged the president in a meeting two days later to reconsider because the government is nearing default, Mr. Obama retorted, "Eric, don't call my bluff."
But minimal progress has been made in almost daily talks toward a deal with congressional Republicans to raise the debt ceiling of $14.29 trillion by the deadline of Aug. 2. The president's rough deadline is Friday for reaching an agreement that can move through Congress in time.
Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner and a number of private business groups have warned of disastrous consequences for the government's credit rating and for the economy as a whole if the debt ceiling is not raised. Many Republicans opposed to increasing the government's borrowing limit say the fears are overblown.
The president is seeking a deal that would raise the debt limit by $2.5 trillion through the 2012 elections while cutting spending as much as $4 trillion over 10 years and raising taxes by more than $1 trillion. Asked whether a short-term hike in the debt limit would reduce the chances of significant long-term deficit reduction, Mr. Carney said, "That would be a shame. We believe that we can get more than that. If we do not, we are going to continue to fight for that, because we have to deal with our deficits, we have to deal with our debt, and we have to do it in a balanced way."
The White House clarified later that the president would approve an extension of borrowing of perhaps only a few days to allow a deal in Congress to be completed.
Mr. Obama summoned House and Senate Democratic leaders to the White House on Wednesday afternoon for more talks, a day after House Republicans approved a measure - strongly backed by tea party activists - to cut next year's budget by $111 billion, cap spending and mandate balanced federal budgets. GOP leaders were expected to meet with the president separately later in the day.
The House-approved "cut, cap and balance" plan, which would raise the debt limit by $2.4 trillion, faces almost certain failure in the Democrat-controlled Senate when it comes up for a vote Saturday, and Mr. Obama has promised a veto if the measure reaches his desk. Although more senators are rallying to a bipartisan "Gang of Six" proposal to cut spending by $4 trillion over 10 years and raise taxes more than $1 trillion, House Republicans have little appetite for that approach.
Mr. Obama endorsed the framework of the Gang of Six proposal on Tuesday, but his spokesman cautioned Wednesday that not all the details are known.
"If the will is there, we can get down to negotiating the details," Mr. Carney said.
One detail that's firm is a feature that would lower the top marginal tax rate from 35 percent to 29 percent. In the debt discussions, however, Mr. Obama consistently has pushed for an increase in taxes for top wage earners.
Mr. Cantor's office issued a statement Wednesday claiming that Mr. Obama had "endorsed" the lower tax rates. Asked whether Mr. Obama is willing to cut tax rates for the wealthiest Americans, Mr. Carney insisted that the president hadn't endorsed any details of the "Gang of Six" plan.
"I'm not going to get into the itemized specifics of their proposal," Mr. Carney said. "The president does support tax reform."
The new tone from the White House on Wednesday on a temporary deal also appeared to boost the prospects of a "fail-safe" plan advanced by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Kentucky Republican, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Nevada Democrat, to boost borrowing without firm spending cuts attached. Their proposal would effectively authorize the president to raise the debt limit by $2.5 trillion in three phases by the end of 2012.
