Johnstown, PA and the great flood of 1889
Posted 18 January 2010 - 10:29 AM
But the 1889 flood is just part of the story. Countless others have died horrific deaths in mine collapses and explosions, train wrecks, hit by trains, accidents in the steel mills, the 1936 and 1977 floods, and wrecks on the steep winding roads in the area. There has also been several violent suicides including people blowing themselves up with dynamite, jumping in front of trains, and even one jumping from a catwalk into a ladle of molten steel.
Perhaps the reason that some don't feel particularly eerie around the old stone bridge might be because bodies were strewn along the whole river system from South Fork to Pittsburgh. As fo myself, the whole area where the wall of water came through sends a chill down my spine. The whole Conemaugh valley could easily be called Death Valley.

Hello Everybody! I hope all is well!
I have lived in Johnstown all my life as well. When I saw this post it took me a little while to figure out how to read all the reply's. LOL But I got it.
Anyways, Ive had, what I would say, an above average amount of paranormal experiences in my life starting when I was very young. Ive seen apparitions and a Shadow Ghost. Ive lived in a few houses that were ABSOLUTLEY haunted. Confimed by me and several roomates. Id love to meet up with some others and visit/re-visit some of these places.
However, about the "Old Stone Bridge" Ive never had an uncomfortable feeling about it. Ever. I drive under it daily. So ????? Who Knows. I wouldnt call it a "Hot Spot" but would definatley like to do some further investigations.
Im new to Ghost hunting. They usually find me. But if anyone is interested, Im game to get some of these places Confimed. Johnstown has ALOT of Ghosts, Im positive of that. Im SURE there is plenty of paranormal activity to be experienced here and look forward to any Replys.
Howdy. I've started a ghosthunting group about a year ago in the Somerset Area and we've been looking for places to investigate in and around Somerset. With Johnstown being not that far away, we'd like to do some investigations (with permission in certain spots, of course). If you're interested in being a part of this group or know of a good place there in Johnstown, let me know. I've already done some research on the Inclined Plane and the mine disaster in that area. You can reach me at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Jonestown is near Mechanicsburg/Harrisburg area...correct?
Posted 08 January 2012 - 11:25 PM
Not a problem darklivid, just didn't want you to read through the thread and wonder why things may seem off. Or talk about something in jonestown and wonder why no one was responding to you.
Jonestown is near Mechanicsburg/Harrisburg area...correct?

This morning I got to visit and sit with the folks at the Berkley Zen Center across the Bay Bridge. I also had the great honor to have breakfast with Mel "Sojun Roshi" Weitsman, one of the first whiteys in this country to take up the Soto style of Zen practice. How did I get so lucky in this lifetime? Plus the breakfast was really good. As soon as I get back to Los Angeles I'm never eating again. I've had enough delicious eats for a lifetime.
They do things differently at Berkeley even from the way they do them at SFZC, which surprised me. Apparently the style at Berkley is closer to what Suzuki Roshi did with his first students. It's just little things. The verse for putting on your robe is a different translation, and they don't do kinhin (walking zen) but instead make a little "clunk" on the big bell at which time people readjust their positions or leave if they have somewhere to go. A couple other things were different.
It's good to see these variations, especially in two temples that are very closely connected. There needs to be a lot of variety in Zen practice. But that doesn't mean that each teacher should not insist upon his or her own way. I don't think a lot of people get that. I mean when I instruct people on shikantaza and say that's the only true way to do zazen, it does not follow that I want to send everyone who doesn't do shikantaza to the gas chambers. It may be that because of the terrible things committed in the names of our Western religions in their quest to destroy all unbelievers, we Westerners tend to read intolerance where it does not exist. It is important for a teacher to be strongly committed to his or her own way. Teachers that try to be too P.C. do their students a great disservice. Insist upon your way and let the students decide if that's the way they want to pursue or not. But always insist.
In the Lotus Sutra the Buddha gives a talk and a bunch of people who don't like what he's saying turn and walk out on him. Somebody, I think it's Ananda, says, "Hey Buddha, everybody's walking out on you!"
Buddha says, "That they leave is also good."
If you leave my place and I think you're a butt-face for doing so, ask yourself why you even care if a guy whose teaching you don't like thinks you're a butt-face. It's an important question. If you don't care, fine. If you do care, maybe there's a reason for that. As there was a reason I cared about Nishijima even though I hated his teaching when I first encountered it. As Shunryu Suzuki once said, "Any teaching that doesn't seem to be forcing itself on you is not good teaching."
Just some thoughts for the day. Now I'm gonna go write that book some more.

Valencia Elementary School students Joey Ullian and Kaden Harrah placed in the top 10 of their respective divisions in the 37th annual CMC Golden State Nationals, a 408MX dirt bike competition, in San Jose on Sunday.
Ullian, 8, placed third in the 65 division, and Harrah, 10, placed sixth in the 85 division.
"These boys have been training for about six months with Tucker Swanson and have competed in about three races," Athena Knight wrote to the Sentinel. "Both boys love to dirt bike and have dreams of going pro."
The event was postponed from Jan. 6 due to weather.

Following landmark gay-marriage arguments before the Supreme Court this week, two top officials at Lafayette's Flatirons Community Church -- which claims the largest congregation in Colorado -- have taken public stands in support of marriage being defined solely as a union between a man and a woman.
Jim Burgen, lead pastor at Flatirons, on his Facebook page Thursday advised that, "All a follower of Jesus needs to do is say that you are hanging onto the definition of marriage that you find from Jesus who said that it was between one man and one woman (Matthew 19:4-6)."
Burgen's Facebook statement concludes with, "Christians are always being labeled as 'against' something. Why can't we just be FOR what Jesus said was right, best, true and good? Jesus said 'this is what marriage was designed to be from the beginning.' I'm just sticking with that as the best plan."
In its first 24 hours, Burgen's post had generated more than 1,000 "likes," had been shared 250 times and generated in excess of 350 comments -- many of which were supportive, some in opposition, and plenty representing a very lively debate.
Also late in the week, Scott Nickell, one of two teaching pastors at the 15,000-member nondenominational church, wrote a lengthy blog entry on the Flatirons website in opposition to what he termed "so-called 'gay marriage.'"
Nickell stated in the blog that he and Burgen have been "bombarded with questions from folks in our church about 'gay marriage'" in light of the Supreme Court this past week hearing oral arguments about California's Proposition 8 and the federal Defense of Marriage Act. Same-sex marriage is a topic that also has gained added currency in Colorado with the recent passage of a bill allowing for legal recognition of same-sex unions, which takes effect in the state May 1.
In making his case, Nickell wrote that there is a non-Biblical argument in support of denying marital rights to same-sex couples.
"The 'right' to be married is one of the most often denied rights in our country," he stated. "We deny the right to be married to children. We deny the right to be married to groups of people, 3 or more who wish to be married."
He went on to state, "We deny the right of a person to marry an animal or a tree. We deny the right of a bi-sexual to marry a man and a woman."
Nickell, while claiming that heterosexuals "have done far more damage to the institution of marriage than homosexuals ever have," also turned to the Bible in making his case. Citing Matthew 19:4-6, like Burgen, he added, "I believe based on the Bible, which is my authority for life and the number one value at Flatirons, that God defines marriage and no human institution can change that, we can only choose whether we want to acknowledge it or not."
Pastor: Views 'not recent'
Flatirons has seen its numbers mushroom in recent years, from 10,000 to 15,000 today. Just two years after moving into its current 162,000-square-foot space on South Boulder Road in Lafayette, the church recently purchased the vacant $5 million, 51,200-square-foot Lookout Mountain Community Church in Genesee to develop that site into a second campus.
It is the second-fastest growing church in the U.S., and in 2012 ranked 23rd in size, in the country, according to Outreach magazine.
Messages for Nickell on Friday seeking comment were not returned.
Burgen, in a written comment to the Camera, said, "The stances that Scott and I have taken are not 'recent.' We have consistently said the same thing. Everybody has fallen short of the Glory of God (that's sin), everybody is dependent upon Jesus for grace and Flatirons will never single out one sin as worse than any other sin... nor will we NOT call anything a sin that the Word of God has defined as sin. Instead, we say, Me Too.
"Your sin and struggle may not be the same as mine... but mine is as disqualifying as anyone else's, gay or straight," Burgen added.
Reaction in congregation is split
To some church members, though, Nickell's blog post and Burgen's Facebook statement express opinions that run counter to Flatirons' much-touted attitude of broad inclusion, captured by the slogan "Me Too."
Lindsey Babcock, 24, of Longmont, said, "I am not sure this stance that they have taken expresses a 'me-too' opinion toward someone who is gay. As a supporter of gay people, I found it to be completely against what the church stands for."
Babcock, who is studying behavioral science and social work at Metropolitan State University of Denver, had -- as recently as Thursday -- been touting Flatirons to a gay relative, suggesting she might want to explore the church.
"But then I saw the (Nickell) blog post, and I let her know I may not even continue with it -- and I don't think it's one she should even explore."
Because Nickell's post appeared on the official church website, Babcock said she it as reflecting the official stance of the church -- one she believed there was no need to issue, yet.
"I think maybe after a Supreme Court decision had been made, that might be an appropriate time to let people know this is their stance," she said. "I think they got involved in a political debate, instead of a political decision."
Lafayette resident Sara Richter, 36, said she and her husband and two children had been contemplating joining Flatirons. No longer.
"I'm disgusted with it," Richter said. "They (Flatirons) were on my Facebook page, and I took them off last night because of the blog post. We will never attend that church, ever."
But a four-year member of the church, 24-year-old Lafayette resident Samantha McIlrath, was more accepting of the Burgen and Nickell messages.
"At the end of the day, no matter what society deems normal, I have to focus on my own marriage and fight to stay true to the vows and convictions I, myself, committed to," said the married mother of two.
"I have complete respect for Jim and Scott and their love for God and people are undeniable. I'm glad that no matter my stance, I know I'm welcome at Flatirons."
Clergy feeling called to take a stand
Boulder's St. John's Episcopal Church has a congregation of about 1,500, roughly one-tenth the size of Flatirons. But the Rev. Susan Springer, rector at St. John's, said the issues of same-sex civil unions and marriages are coming to the fore for clergy across the religious landscape.
At St. John's, it is expected that a new policy governing both same-sex blessings and heterosexual marriages will be ready for congregational input and a vote of the vestry by summer, and likely finalized by the summer's end.
"I don't think anybody in my faith tradition is out to destroy marriage between a man and a woman," Springer said. "I think we are out to find a way to offer the same blessing and the same sense of inclusion to same-sex couples. And I think we stand as prophetic witness, that same-sex couples ought to enjoy the same legal benefits, if you will, as heterosexual couples."
Springer also said, referring to Burgen and Nickell at Flatirons, "I respect these pastors for having the guts to take a stand. Any time you take a stand as a faith leader, whether it's gun control, same-sex blessings, capital punishment or immigration, it's very risky -- and yet the paradox is, we are called to take a stand.
"It's not a simple thing. It's nuanced, and multi-layered."

Wax Bath Therapy, Compression Gloves and … stuffJanuary 12, 2010 at 8:03 pm | Posted in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 4 Comments
Well I had my OT appointment yesterday and my first wax bath therapy treatment for the RA in my hands. Mmmmmmmmm … 'heaven, I'm in heaven' … or at least I was for about twenty minutes yesterday!
The theory behind the wax bath therapy is, as I understand it, that the hands, having been nicely warmed for a few minutes, are more flexible and stretchy, but that wears off fairly fast; however, over time, given several treatments, one is able to do more stretching of the hands and so lasting benefit builds up. Something like that, anyway.
The OT also gave me some compression gloves to try out, and has promised that if they work she will get me some fingerless ones so that I can actually work in them. Well, they do seem to help, if one day's on and off testing counts for anything. Ugly as sin though. I told 'the boss' that if anyone knocked on the office door she would have to answer because I'd be too embarrassed. Hmm. Who was it that was ranting away about how we need to be more open about having RA and educate other people? Oops.
Must see if Funk Arthur has any more attractive versions, or look up the ones R.A. Guy was recommending. (Only of course now I can't find his post!)
But back to the wax therapy. The OT (who's lovely – we put the world to rights while I was sat doing nothing) said that I wouldn't get any lasting benefit from this first treatment. Boy was she right! I woke up last night in agony – the worst hand pain I've ever had! I'm hoping this has nothing to do with the wax bath therapy and everything to do with the fact that the hot flushes have just started up again and the fact that I probably have very little methotrexate inside me after taking it last night and then having a massive stomach explosion!
I suppose I should phone the rheumy helpline and ask if I should take some more or something? My strapline for the year (which didn't make it into my New Year's Resolution list but sums that list up) is 'be bothered', but I couldn't be bothered this morning, the way I was feeling!

Bathroom Window Treatments & Bathroom Blinds
- Moisture resistant window treatments
- Provide an adequate level of privacy
- Consider room darkening options
- Shutters are a natural fit
- Top picks are faux wood blinds, cellular shades & roller shades
While privacy is a major concern in the bathroom, blinds and shades that are able to withstand high levels of humidity are the best choice. Treatments made out of vinyl, PVC, faux wood, or thick fabric will be durable enough to stand up to the unique environment. These window treatments won't bend, warp, crack, or harvest mildew and are sure to withstand the test of time. Many bathroom shades can be configured with a top down/bottom up lift for the ultimate in flexible privacy. The slats on faux wood bathroom blinds and shutters can be tilted upwards to admit some light while still maintaining privacy.

I checked alot of places for blinds , but ended up buying them here. I received them in a short time , they was very easy to hang and the quality seems to be greatView this product
"Great Choice"
By No Longer Blindless from California
The roller shade is great. The rich fabric color has transformed our window and prompted me to order additional shades for other windows in the home. The shades were so easy to install that I installed them without the help of my husband, but with the help of my 13 yr old daughter.View this product

Learn Haskell in 10 minutes
From HaskellWiki
1 Overview
Haskell is a functional (that is, everything is done with function calls), statically, implicitly typed (types are checked by the compiler, but you don't have to declare them), lazy (nothing is done until it needs to be) language. Its closest popular relative is probably the ML family of languages (which are not, however, lazy languages).
The most common Haskell compiler is GHC. You can download GHC from http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download . GHC binaries are available for GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS, Windows, and Solaris. Once you've installed GHC, you get two programs you're interested in right now: ghc, and ghci. The first compiles Haskell libraries or applications to binary code. The second is an interpreter that lets you write Haskell code and get feedback right away.
2 Simple expressions
You can type most math expressions directly into ghci and get an answer. Prelude> is the default GHCi prompt.
Prelude> 3 * 5 15 Prelude> 4 ^ 2 - 1 15 Prelude> (1 - 5)^(3 * 2 - 4) 16Strings are in "double quotes." You can concatenate them with
Prelude> "Hello" "Hello" Prelude> "Hello" ++ ", Haskell" "Hello, Haskell"
Calling functions is done by putting the arguments directly after the function. There are no parentheses as part of the function call:
Prelude> succ 5 6 Prelude> truncate 6.59 6 Prelude> round 6.59 7 Prelude> sqrt 2 1.4142135623730951 Prelude> not (5 < 3) True Prelude> gcd 21 14 7
3 The console
I/O actions can be used to read from and write to the console. Some common ones include:
Prelude> putStrLn "Hello, Haskell" Hello, Haskell Prelude> putStr "No newline" No newline Prelude> print (5 + 4) 9 Prelude> print (1 < 2) TrueThe
Prelude> do { putStr "2 + 2 = " ; print (2 + 2) } 2 + 2 = 4 Prelude> do { putStrLn "ABCDE" ; putStrLn "12345" } ABCDE 12345Reading can be done with
Prelude> do { n <- readLn ; print (n^2) } 4 16
(The 4 was input. The 16 was a result.)There is actually another way to write
main = do putStrLn "What is 2 + 2?" x <- readLn if x == 4 then putStrLn "You're right!" else putStrLn "You're wrong!"
(Note: Do not indent with tabs if you're using layout. It technically still works if your tabs are 8 spaces, but it's a bad idea. Also, don't use proportional fonts -- which apparently some people do, even when programming!)
4 Simple typesSo far, not a single type declaration has been mentioned. That's because Haskell does type inference. You generally don't have to declare types unless you want to. If you do want to declare types, you use
Prelude> 5 :: Int 5 Prelude> 5 :: Double 5.0
Types (and type classes, discussed later) always start with upper-case letters in Haskell. Variables always start with lower-case letters. This is a rule of the language, not a naming convention.
You can also ask ghci what type it has chosen for something. This is useful because you don't generally have to declare your types.
Prelude> :t True True :: Bool Prelude> :t 'X' 'X' :: Char Prelude> :t "Hello, Haskell" "Hello, Haskell" :: [Char](In case you noticed,
Things get more interesting for numbers.
Prelude> :t 42 42 :: (Num t) => t Prelude> :t 42.0 42.0 :: (Fractional t) => t Prelude> :t gcd 15 20 gcd 15 20 :: (Integral t) => t
These types use "type classes." They mean:
- can be used as any numeric type. (This is why I was able to declare42as either an5or aIntearlier.)Double
- can be any fractional type, but not an integral type.42.0
- (which is a function call, incidentally) can be any integral type, but not a fractional type.gcd 15 20
There are five numeric types in the Haskell "prelude" (the part of the library you get without having to import anything):
- is an integer with at least 30 bits of precision.Int
- is an integer with unlimited precision.Integer
- is a single precision floating point number.Float
- is a double precision floating point number.Double
- is a fraction type, with no rounding error.Rational
Putting it all together,
Prelude> gcd 42 35 :: Int 7 Prelude> gcd 42 35 :: Double <interactive>:1:0: No instance for (Integral Double)The final type worth mentioning here is
Prelude> () () Prelude> :t () () :: ()You can think of this as similar to the void keyword in C family languages. You can return
5 Structured data
Basic data types can be easily combined in two ways: lists, which go in [square brackets], and tuples, which go in (parentheses).
Lists are used to hold multiple values of the same type.
Prelude> [1, 2, 3] [1,2,3] Prelude> [1 .. 5] [1,2,3,4,5] Prelude> [1, 3 .. 10] [1,3,5,7,9] Prelude> [True, False, True] [True,False,True]
Strings are just lists of characters.
Prelude> ['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o'] "Hello"The
Prelude> 'C' : ['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o'] "CHello"
Tuples hold a fixed number of values, which can have different types.
Prelude> (1, True) (1,True) Prelude> zip [1 .. 5] ['a' .. 'e'] [(1,'a'),(2,'b'),(3,'c'),(4,'d'),(5,'e')]The last example used
The types are probably what you'd expect.
Prelude> :t ['a' .. 'c'] ['a' .. 'c'] :: [Char] Prelude> :t [('x', True), ('y', False)] [('x', True), ('y', False)] :: [(Char, Bool)]
Lists are used a lot in Haskell. There are several functions that do nice things with them.
Prelude> [1 .. 5] [1,2,3,4,5] Prelude> map (+ 2) [1 .. 5] [3,4,5,6,7] Prelude> filter (> 2) [1 .. 5] [3,4,5]
There are two nice functions on ordered pairs (tuples of two elements):
Prelude> fst (1, 2) 1 Prelude> snd (1, 2) 2 Prelude> map fst [(1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6)] [1,3,5]
Also see how to work on lists
6 Function definitionsWe wrote a definition of an IO action earlier, called
main = do putStrLn "What is 2 + 2?" x <- readLn if x == 4 then putStrLn "You're right!" else putStrLn "You're wrong!"
module Main where factorial n = if n == 0 then 1 else n * factorial (n - 1) main = do putStrLn "What is 5! ?" x <- readLn if x == factorial 5 then putStrLn "You're right!" else putStrLn "You're wrong!"
Build again with ghc --make Test.hs. And,
$ ./Test What is 5! ? 120 You're right!There's a function. Just like the built-in functions, it can be called as
Now ask ghci for the type.
$ ghci Test.hs << GHCi banner >> Ok, modules loaded: Main. Prelude Main> :t factorial factorial :: (Num a) => a -> aFunction types are written with the argument type, then
Factorial can be simplified by writing it with case analysis.
factorial 0 = 1 factorial n = n * factorial (n - 1)
7 Convenient syntax
A couple extra pieces of syntax are helpful.
secsToWeeks secs = let perMinute = 60 perHour = 60 * perMinute perDay = 24 * perHour perWeek = 7 * perDay in secs / perWeek
classify age = case age of 0 -> "newborn" 1 -> "infant" 2 -> "toddler" _ -> "senior citizen"
8 Using libraries
Everything used so far in this tutorial is part of the Prelude, which is the set of Haskell functions that are always there in any program.
The best road from here to becoming a very productive Haskell programmer (aside from practice!) is becoming familiar with other libraries that do the things you need. Documentation on the standard libraries is at http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/. There are modules there with:
- Useful data structures
- Concurrent and parallel programming
- Graphics and GUI libraries
- Networking, POSIX, and other system-level stuff
- Two test frameworks, QuickCheck and HUnit
- Regular expressions and predictive parsers
- More...
module Main where import qualified Data.Map as M errorsPerLine = M.fromList [ ("Chris", 472), ("Don", 100), ("Simon", -5) ] main = do putStrLn "Who are you?" name <- getLine case M.lookup name errorsPerLine of Nothing -> putStrLn "I don't know you" Just n -> do putStr "Errors per line: " print n
If you want something that's not in the standard library, try looking at http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/hackage.html or this wiki's applications and libraries page. This is a collection of many different libraries written by a lot of people for Haskell. Once you've got a library, extract it and switch into that directory and do this:
runhaskell Setup configure runhaskell Setup build runhaskell Setup install
On a UNIX system, you may need to be root for that last part.

In this activity, users download and graph modeled climate data to explore variability in climate change. Most people know that climate changes are predicted over the next hundred years, but they may not be aware that these changes are likely to... (View More) vary from region to region. Using data from the University of New Hampshire's EOS-WEBSTER, a digital library of Earth Science data, users will obtain annual predictions for minimum temperature, maximum temperature, precipitation, and solar radiation for each of these 5 states: New York, Georgia, Colorado, Minnesota, and California. Data will span the years 2000 through 2100. Users will import the data into Excel and analyze it to see what, if any, regional variability exists. Finally, they will download data for their own state, compare these results with the results from the other 5 states and use their results to answer questions related to climate change. This chapter is part of the Earth Exploration Toolbook (EET). Each EET chapter provides teachers and/or students with direct practice for using scientific tools to analyze Earth science data. Students should begin on the Case Study page. (View Less)

A one-time prominent Butler doctor already in prison for molesting a former Boy Scout is expected to enter a plea on allegations that he also inappropriately touched two boys from Summit Academy.
David Evanko, 59, is scheduled to appear in Butler County Court on April 22 for what court records have deemed "a plea and special sentencing."
Evanko's defense attorney, Stanton Levenson of Pittsburgh, confirmed the purpose of the court appearance, but he refused to reveal any of the details of the proposed plea arrangement.
Dennis Fisher, a spokesman for the state attorney general's office, which is prosecuting both cases, refused to "confirm or deny" any details related to the case because it still is pending.
Even if both sides agree to a plea, it still would need a judge's approval to be official.
Evanko is accused of using his position as a doctor to assault two residents of Summit Academy, ages 15 and 17, who were supposed to be receiving medical treatment in 2008 and 2009.
Meantime, Evanko still is in the State Correctional Institution at Camp Hill, where he is serving a 6- to 15-year prison sentence that was issued for the Boy Scout case, in which Evanko was convicted of statutory rape and involuntary deviate sexual intercourse.

President Barack Obama said the automatic spending cuts set to kick in today will be a "slow grind" on the economy and that it may take weeks to win over enough lawmakers from both parties to reach a deal on a replacement deficit-cutting plan.
Obama, speaking after meeting with top congressional leaders for less than an hour at the White House, said an agreement will be reached once members of Congress hear from voters feeling the pinch of cutbacks in government programs.
"There is a caucus of common sense up on Capitol Hill," Obama said. "It's a silent group right now, and we want to make sure that their voices start getting heard."
Democrats and Republicans are in a standoff over how to replace the cuts, known as sequestration, totaling $1.2 trillion over nine years. Of that total, $85 billion would occur in the remaining seven months of this fiscal year. The effective reductions would be about 13 percent for defense programs and 9 percent for non-defense programs, according to the Office of Management and Budget.
House Speaker John Boehner left the White House indicating Republicans won't budge from their rejection of raising tax revenue again.
"The president got his tax hikes on Jan. 1," Boehner, an Ohio Republican, said, referring to the deal at the end of last year that let income tax rates rise for top incomes.
Avoiding Shutdown
Boehner also said the House will vote next week on legislation to fund the government for the rest of the fiscal year so Congress won't have to deal with the risk of a government shutdown while negotiating an agreement on cutting the deficit.
House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of California, who was at the White House meeting, was noncommittal about whether her party would support Boehner's funding plan. "Certainly we don't want to have a shutdown of government," she said.
Obama has urged replacing sequestration with a combination of trimming spending, including in entitlement programs, and higher revenue from closing loopholes in the tax code for the wealthiest Americans.
