House transportation bill would spend nearly $270B (AP)

WASHINGTON ? House Republicans are proposing to spend nearly $270 billion over the next 4 1/2 years on transportation programs as a way to preserve jobs.

Transportation experts say that's enough money to prevent the nation's roads, bridges and transit systems from falling further into disrepair, but not enough to reduce the backlog of needed work on transportation infrastructure.

GOP leaders are expected to introduce the bill on Tuesday. The House Transportation Committee is poised to approve the measure at a meeting on Thursday.

A separate committee will decide how to pay for the measure. GOP leaders have said they plan to use revenue from expanded oil and gas drilling, but haven't provided details.

The Senate is working on its own bill, which would spend $109 billion over two years.

Rio de Janeiro offers fun for kids, too

In Rio de Janeiro, there are enclosed children's play areas set up on Ipanema and Leblon beaches every morning.

By Thomas Kohnstamm, TODAY.com contributor

Rio de Janeiro ? the name alone titillates the imagination. Visiting Brazil?s most famous and fun city deservedly makes its way onto many people?s ?must do? lists. However, many dreamers find themselves?married with children before?having the resources to visit this far-flung city of wish fulfillment.?

So, do you take it off your list and set your sights on more kid-friendly destinations?

Rio has more of a reputation for?G-strings than for?G-rated attractions. And while this metropolis of more than 12 million will never be as straightforward of a family destination as Orlando, it is much more welcoming to children than most travelers imagine.

One reason?is the culture. "Brazilians are really family-oriented and are used to socializing with the kids, parents and grandparents together all the time," says Rio-born Seattleite Kamila Kennedy who recently returned to visit with her three children in tow.??Cariocas [people from Rio] welcome kids just about anywhere.?

A crying child in a restaurant is more likely to garner silly faces from the waiter than rolled eyes from annoyed patrons.

Parents of babies are treated like visiting royalty and everyone from grandmas to the garbage man (no exaggeration) stop on the street to smile and potentially even try to pat a child?s feet.

?Rio is full of things that children love: beaches, parks, colors, bike paths, music and fun," says Jana Magalh?es, a Rio-based artist and illustrator?who has contributed to numerous Brazilian children?s books. "And Carioca culture is known for being friendly, for our beach style, our music and all of these things keep children entertained and happy.?

Flying in the face of popular belief, Rio?s beaches host many more families than scantily clad models. There are elaborate (enclosed) children?s play areas set up on both Ipanema and Leblon beaches every morning.?On Sundays the streets behind the beaches are closed to all but foot, skate, bike and stroller traffic.

If you tire of the beach, Parque dos Patins (rollerskate park) on the centrally located Rodrigo de Freitas Lake is a permanent fairground for family diversion. Wander from the restaurants to the trampolines and slides, get a cotton candy or rent kids? skates to explore the car-free pathways.

It?s never too late to get to know Rio and visiting with your family will help see?beyond just beaches, bikinis and Carnaval.

(AP) ? Hope Solo's leg injury could keep the goalkeeper out of the game that determines whether the U.S. women's national team goes to the Olympics.

Coach Pia Sundhage said Wednesday that she needs to see how Solo is recovering from a pulled right quad before deciding on the lineup for Friday's game against Costa Rica.

Solo has needed extra work to get back into soccer shape after appearing on "Dancing With the Stars" following last year's World Cup. She said she pulled the quad a few days ago, and the injury was aggravated during the first half of Tuesday night's 4-0 win over Mexico.

Nicole Barnhart is Solo's backup for the tournament.

The winner of Friday's game earns one of the region's two berths for the London Games.

Click.to


One of the more interesting consequences of the touch screen revolution is the way that developments in smartphones and tablets are bleeding into more traditional hardware and software. Click.to?(free) is a program designed to mimic in standard PCs (and Macs) the ease with which people can share content from tablets, like the iPad, and touch-screen smartphones. In practically any mobile app for touch-screen devices, you can press a single button to share something on Facebook, or email a photo, or otherwise copy and paste content from one application to another. Another example: Surf the Web for a business phone number from an iPhone, and pressing on the number will automatically initiate the call.

Why shouldn't we have this functionality on our plain old laptops and desktops? That's precisely what Axonic, the company that made Click.to, thought.

Time-Saving Shortcut
Click.to is a small downloadable program that works on both Windows (XP, Vista, 7) and Mac computers. After you install and launch it, Click.to will work in any application the moment you try to use the "copy function," whether you press Ctrl+C, Apple-command+C, or right-click and select "copy." A string of icons representing various programs?Microsoft Word, Skype, Twitter, Google, Amazon, Evernote, Bing, and many, many more?appears near the text. Select whichever one you want, and Click.to launches the program and takes the appropriate action. Often, the action is "copy and paste," but other workflows are supported, too. For example, if you select the button for Outlook, Click.to creates a new message and pastes the copied content into the body of the email. Let's say you're reading a PDF and you highlight a term and use Click.to to search Wikipedia. The app pulls the most concise definition Wikipedia has for the selected text and displays it in a bubble right on screen, so you never have to leave the PDF viewer. Try using the Skype function by highlighting a phone number you find online and then picking the Skype icon. Click.to will launch Skype and dial the number.

Depending on what application you choose, Click.to can automatically fill in other appropriate information, such as the subject line of an email (it will use the file name from which the text or image is pulled). Paste into a Word doc, and the source of the pasted info is given at the top of the file.

You can customize which icons appear from an Options menu, and, if Click.to doesn't support an application you want to use, you can add it, although the process might seem slightly complicated for less technical users. To add a new program, you have to be able to identify the executable file for the program on your hard drive.

Getting the Hang of Click.to
The number of clicks that Click.to saves you depends on what kind of workflows you normally do. For sharing to social networks and drafting emails, it's very handy, and the Wikipedia tie-in is brilliant.

I tried to get a lot of mileage out of it for copying and pasting text and found that it does take a little bit of time, maybe a day or two, to configure the app appropriately for your needs and then learn how to use the actions in a way that saves time and increases productivity in the long run.

There are times when Click.to becomes distracting for certain applications or tasks, and thankfully, you can always it off or turn it off only for specified applications, which is a nice touch.

Additionally, if your ultimate goal is to cut down on repetitive motions, you might want to train yourself to use Click.to via the keyboard rather than the mouse. Mac users may also be interested in a productivity tool called Alfred (for Mac), which lets you search for and launch applications and files using a very simple keyboard shortcut. With Alfred, you can also create keyboard shortcuts for some workflows. However, Alfred tries to get you to stick to the keyboard and rely less on the mouse (which can be preferable for some users), whereas Click.to focuses on cutting down the number of keyboard strokes and mouse clicks.

Fewer Clicks With Click.to
Productivity and efficiency experts have long studied the number of clicks and keystrokes the average office worker completes in a day. Click.to tries to decrease that total by removing several steps in the various kinds of information age workflows. The free product is worth downloading if you are looking for a way to reduce the number of times you click your mouse.

Kim Kardashian 'Definitely Tried' With Kris Humphries

'I just need to rewrite my fairy tale,' reality star tells Kelly Ripa while co-hosting 'Live!'

When she wasn't playing with exotic animals during Monday's (January 23) show, Kelly Ripa's latest "Live!" co-host, Kim Kardashian, opened up about her much-publicized split from Kris Humphries, her husband of 72 days.

"I didn't think following my heart would create this much backlash," she said, sitting next to Ripa in a skin-tight red dress. The reality starlet continued that despite reports that she married the basketball player for publicity, she was in it for the long haul.

"I definitely tried everything I felt like I could ... I want babies. I want forever love," she said. "I just felt like, you know, if I feel in my heart that this isn't right, then why wait years to have the same result?"

The Kris/Kim relationship and its demise are currently playing out in front of America on E!'s "Kourtney & Kim Take New York." Admitting that shortly after the split she did some "soul-searching," she added that these days she's had to readjust her ideas on true love. "I really learned that I just need to rewrite my fairy tale," she said.

"Me being a hopeless romantic, I wanted it to work so badly," Kardashian said. "If this was a business decision ... I'm a smart businesswoman. I would have stayed married longer! This was a bad business decision!"

On the same day that Kim opened up about her own split, Heidi Klum and Seal announced that they'd be splitting after seven years of marriage. What's Kim's advice for them in the wake of their own very public split?

"It's so sad," she said. "I would never wish anyone to go through a divorce, but then again after what I went through, you don't really know until you're in this person's shoes ... When I see other people when I might not understand their situation, now I really just step back because you don't really know what they're going through."

How did Kim Kardashian do co-hosting with Kelly Ripa? Let us know in the comments!

Supreme Court throws out Texas election maps (Reuters)

WASHINGTON (Reuters) ? The Supreme Court handed Texas Republicans a partial victory in a partisan fight over election redistricting that has erupted after a huge increase in the state's Hispanic population.

Throwing out a set of election maps that favored Democrats and minorities, the justices on Friday sent the case back to a lower court, forcing further review of a matter with a limited timetable for resolution as 2012 elections are fast approaching.

In its first ruling on political boundary-drawing based on the 2010 U.S. Census, the high court unanimously rejected interim election maps that had been drawn up by federal judges in San Antonio.

The court said the judges' maps did not sufficiently take into account an earlier set of maps that were drawn up by the Texas state legislature that favored Republicans.

Under the high court's ruling, the Texas judges must redraw the maps for primary contests set for April 3 that will decide party candidates for congressional and state legislature elections in November.

The case is typical of redistricting fights that unfold in states across the country every 10 years after a national census. In this one, protecting the voting rights of millions of minorities and substantial political power are at stake.

Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, a Republican, said, "The Supreme Court's swift decision will allow Texas to move forward with elections as soon as possible under maps that are lawful."

The case is being closely watched because it could help decide whether Republicans or Democrats gain as many as four seats in the U.S. House of Representatives in November. The Texas delegation now has 23 Republicans and nine Democrats.

MEXICAN-AMERICANS GROUP WEIGHS IN

A civil rights group representing Hispanics, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, said the ruling reaffirmed Texas' obligation to comply with the voting rights law. The group said it looked forward to further proceedings in San Antonio to secure fair interim maps.

Abbott had appealed to the Supreme Court, saying the lower court had overstepped its authority, and arguing that the judges should have deferred to maps drawn by elected lawmakers.

Those maps favor Republican candidates, but have been challenged for violating the voting rights of Hispanics and other minorities.

The Supreme Court ruled that the federal district court judges appeared to have unnecessarily ignored the state's plans in drawing certain districts and that those maps can at least be used as a starting point.

"Some aspects of the district court's plans seem to pay adequate attention to the state's policies, others do not and the propriety of still others is unclear," the court held in its narrow opinion limited to the unique facts of the Texas dispute.

Redrawing the Texas districts has been a major political and legal battle. The state's population went up by more than 20 percent, or 4.2 million people, over the past decade, with Hispanics accounting for 2.8 million of the increase.

FOUR NEW DISTRICTS FORMED

After the 2010 Census, Texas got four new congressional seats, giving it 36. The legislature's plan, signed by Texas Governor Rick Perry, who dropped out of the Republican presidential race on Thursday, created only one new heavily Hispanic district.

The Supreme Court, in the 11-page, unsigned opinion, said the judges, in coming up with new maps, must be careful not to incorporate any legal defects from the legislature's plan.

The interim maps drawn by the judges in Texas were designed to remain in place until a separate court in Washington, D.C., could decide whether the Texas state plan should be approved or rejected under the federal voting rights law.

A trial in that case is under way. That case and a different pending legal challenge in San Antonio are expected to determine the final maps to be used in Texas in future years.

The Obama administration, the state Democratic Party and minority groups have challenged parts or all of the state's redistricting plan for violating the voting rights law, and said the judicially drawn one should be used on an interim basis.

Justice Clarence Thomas issued a brief opinion agreeing with the judgment, but adding that he would have gone further. He said the legislature's plans have not been found to violate any law and should be used for the upcoming elections.

The Supreme Court cases are Perry v. Perez, No 11-713; Perry v. Davis, No. 11-714, and Perry v. Perez, No. 11-715.

"Invisible War" exposes widespread rape in U.S. military (Reuters)

PARK CITY, Utah, Jan 22 (TheWrap.com) ? Rape in the American armed forces is an issue that has quietly been gathering attention over the past decade. But it exploded with the power of suppressed fury at the Sundance festival's Friday afternoon screening of the documentary "The Invisible War," a devastating indictment of the government's inaction on the issue.

Director Kirby Dick brought a powerful weapon to his film: victim after eloquent victim, Navy, Marine, Coast Guard, Army and Air Force veterans who were assaulted by fellow officers, supervisors or recruits.

They tell their stories in courageous detail, and it quickly becomes clear that these are not isolated incidents but a pattern reflective of a widespread rot within America's military institution, one that betrays its essential values.

The individuals Dick chose as the principal characters in his film -- there were so many to choose from -- were among the best of their class. They were women (and in some cases, men) who joined the military out of devotion to country and a desire to serve.

One Marine, Ariana Klay, was raped by a fellow officer in the elite Marine Barracks in Washington, D.C.

A Navy officer, Trina McDonald, was drugged and raped repeatedly by fellow officers on a remote base in Alaska.

Coast Guard recruit Kori Cioca was raped and then assaulted -- smacked so hard in the face that it dislocated her jaw, causing her permanent damage and pain for which the Veterans Administration declines to provide medical coverage.

One woman who was assaulted had previously been a military investigator of crimes. Rape investigations were always steered away from the women, she recounted, because they would be "too sympathetic."

Every woman in the film has had her life shattered by this event -- not necessarily because of the rape, but because of the response by the military establishment.

After lodging complaints, the women were met with indifference or targeted retaliation. They have had to leave the military. Some were threatened with violence.

For each, the betrayal by their colleagues and by an institution they trusted deeply has been a wound that, as one military psychologist affirms, cuts to "the soul."

Almost none of the alleged perpetrators were brought up on charges or punished in any way. Some have gone on to rape again, in the military or the private sector.

Kirby, who took on the Catholic Church's indifference to sexual abuse in "Twist of Faith," hopes the film will mobilize change in a way that lobbying and newspaper journalism so far have not.

Two obvious policy changes are necessary: better screening of new recruits to winnow out potential predators, and moving the authority for investigating and prosecuting rape into indendent hands. At the moment, local commanders have nearly all the power in these matters.

The military "has to admit they have a problem," Dick said at the Q&A after the screening, where more than a half-dozen victims stood and received applause.

"They need another mind-set to attack this issue."

The movie, which does not yet have distribution, profoundly shocked the audience. One military recruiter stood and asked for the names of the bases involved so she could steer female enlistees away from known risk areas. A 17-year-old girl stood up in tears and thanked the women for speaking out.

But there was one inspiring surprise after the screening. A couple in the audience approached Cioca and told her they will pay for the surgery to repair her jaw, which causes her pain every day. The cost is around $60,000, and without V.A. medical coverage she cannot afford it.

Cioca was overwhelmed. The couple, an investment banker and his wife, said they preferred to remain anonymous.

US Sen. Brown kicks off campaign re-election bid (AP)

WORCESTER, Mass. ? U.S. Sen. Scott Brown has officially kicked off his re-election campaign, casting his chief Democratic opponent Elizabeth Warren as an ideologue and pledging to be an independent voice in a deeply partisan Congress.

Brown, speaking to a crowd of cheering supporters, said he would continue to oppose the health care law signed by President Barack Obama and would fight against wasteful government spending.

Brown timed his Thursday evening event to coincide with the anniversary of his special election win in 2010 that catapulted him into the office once held by the late Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy.

Brown also criticized what he called "establishment candidates" who wage class warfare by pitting one group of Americans against another and attacking the country's free enterprise system.

Warren called those remarks part of the "standard Republican playbook."

Remorseful man admits he caused big Reno blaze (AP)

RENO, Nev. ? An elderly man discarding fireplace ashes accidentally touched off the brush fire that raged south of Reno, destroying 29 homes and forcing thousands of people to flee the flames, authorities said.

The man admitted his role by improperly disposing of the ashes at his home.

Investigators already had tracked the origin of the fire to a location in East Lake on the north end of the Washoe Valley, where the man lives about 20 miles south of downtown Reno.

"He came forward on his own accord," Reno Fire Chief Michael Hernandez said. "He has given statements to our investigators as well as law enforcement officers. He is extremely remorseful."

Fueled by 82 mph wind gusts, the blaze burned nearly 3,200 acres and forced the evacuation of up to 10,000 people Thursday.

A break in the weather and calmer winds allowed firefighters to get the upper hand on the blaze Friday.

Hernandez estimated it to be 65 percent contained Friday night. He said 300 firefighters would remain on the scene through the night checking for hot spots along with another 125 support people, including law enforcement officers and the Nevada National Guard.

The next challenge may be the forecast for rain and snow in the mountains on Saturday, which officials fear could cause flooding in burned areas.

The Highway Patrol said Friday night that all of U.S. Highway 395 between Reno and Carson City had reopened.

Washoe County Sheriff Mike Haley said a formal case file will be forwarded to the district attorney next week for consideration of charges.

"The DA will have to give this case a lot of deliberation," Haley said.

"The fact he came forward and admitted it plays a role. But so does the massive damage and loss of life," he said. "It's a balancing act."

In addition to the potential for facing jail time on arson charges, the man could also be ordered to pay the cost of fighting the fire, which already totals $690,000.

Washoe County Manager Katy Simon said she expects the final bill to run into the millions of dollars.

Gov. Sandoval toured the fire damaged area Friday, describing it as "horrendous, devastating."

"There is nothing left in some of those places except for the chimneys and fireplaces," he said.

The blaze started shortly after noon Thursday and, fueled by the wind, mushroomed to more than 6 square miles before firefighters stopped its surge toward Reno.

The strong, erratic winds caused major challenges for crews evacuating residents, Sierra Front spokesman Mark Regan said. "In a matter of seconds, the wind would shift," he said.

Haley confirmed that the body of June Hargis, 93, was found in the fire's aftermath, but her cause of death has not been established, so it's not known if it was fire related.

Jeannie Watts, the woman's 70-year-old daughter, told KRNV-TV that Hargis' grandson telephoned her to tell her to evacuate but she didn't get out in time.

About 2,000 people remained subject to evacuation, and about 100 households still were without power.

Marred in Reno's driest winter in more than 120 years, residents had welcomed the forecast that a storm was due to blow across the Sierra Nevada this week.

Instead, thousands found themselves fleeing their homes Thursday afternoon.

Connie Cryer went to the fire response command post Friday with her 12-year-old granddaughter, Maddie Miramon, to find out if her house had survived the flames.

"We had to know so we could get some sleep," Cryer said, adding her house was spared but a neighbor's wasn't. She had seen wildfires before, but nothing on this scale.

"There was fire in front of me, fire beside me, fire behind me. It was everywhere," she said. "I don't know how more didn't burn up. It was terrible, all the wind and the smoke."

Fire officials said Thursday's fire was "almost a carbon copy" of a blaze that destroyed 30 homes in Reno during similar summer-like conditions in mid-November.

State Forester Pete Anderson said he has not seen such hazardous fire conditions in winter in his 43 years in Nevada. Reno had no precipitation in December. The last time that happened was 1883.

An inch of snow Monday ended the longest recorded dry spell in Reno history, a 56-day stretch that prompted Anderson to issue an unusual warning about wildfire threats.

"We're usually pretty much done with the fire season by the first of November, but this year it's been nonstop," Anderson said.

Kit Bailey, U.S. Forest Service fire chief at nearby Lake Tahoe, said conditions are so dry that even a forecast calling for rain and snow might not take the Reno-Tahoe area out of fire danger.

"The scary thing is a few days of drying after this storm cycle and we could be back into fire season again," he said.

1 in 6 Teen Moms Say They Didn't Believe They Could Get Pregnant (LiveScience.com)

Half of teen mothers say they were not using birth control when they got pregnant, and a new report outlines the reasons teens give for not doing so.

Of teen moms who reported not using birth control, 31 percent said they did not believe they could get pregnant at the time. To decrease teen birth rates, teens need factual information about the conditions under which pregnancy can occur, along with public health efforts aimed at reducing or delaying teens' sexual activities, according to the report released today by researchers for the Centers for Disease and Control and Prevention.

Others gave various reasons for not using birth control ? 24 percent said their partner did not want to use contraception, 13 percent said they had trouble getting birth control, 9 percent said they experienced side effects from using contraception and 8 percent said they thought their sex partner was sterile. Twenty-two percent of the teens said they did not mind getting pregnant.

Health care providers and parents can work to prevent teen pregnancy by increasing teens' motivation to avoid pregnancy; providing access to contraception and encouraging the use of more effective methods, and strengthening the skills of teens to negotiate contraceptive use with their partners.

Some teen moms reported using birth control

Of all teens who gave birth, 21 percent reported using a highly effective contraceptive method, such as an intrauterine device, and an additional 24 percent reported used condoms. Inconsistent use of contraception may explain how these teens became pregnant, according to the report.

Research has shown that teens who report using birth control do not use it consistently, the report noted. One survey found that among sexually active teens who reported using condoms, only 52 percent said they used a condom every time they had sex.

The rates of not using birth control did not vary among teens of different racial groups ? whether white, black or Hispanic, about half the teens reported not using birth control when they became pregnant.

There were some differences among the groups in terms of the reasons teens gave for not using birth control. Forty-two percent of Hispanic teens reported not using contraception because they did not think they could get pregnant at the time, whereas 32 percent of black teens gave that reason and 27 percent of white teens did.

Previous research has shown that 17 percent of all sexually active teens report not using birth control when they last had sex.

Teen births in the U.S.

About 400,000 U.S. teens ages 15 to 19 give birth each year, which gives the United States the highest teen birth rate in the developed world, according to the report.

Teen mothers are more likely than others to drop out of school, and infants born to teens are more likely to have low birth weight, putting them at risk for a number of health conditions, and lower academic achievement, according to the report.

The researchers used data from the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System, which gathers data on maternal attitudes and experiences before, during and after pregnancy. Thirty-seven states and New York City contribute data to the system. The data used in the report were gathered from 2004 to 2008.

The report was limited in that it relied on the teens' own reports of their contraceptive use, and in the PRAMS data were not available from all states. ?

Pass it on: To reduce the teen birth rate, teens need more information about the conditions under which pregnancy happens, better access to birth control and skills to negotiate contraception use with their partners.

Elizabeth Smart: Engaged!


Elizabeth Smart, who was kidnapped by Brian David Mitchell from her home in 2002 at age 14, only to be found nine months later, is engaged, her father Ed confirms.

"We're very excited for her," Ed said Friday. "She told us at home last Saturday."

"I wasn't really surprised. They've been so happy together. We're thrilled. We're looking forward to her moving on to this next stage and leading a very happy life."

Ed, who is staying mum on wedding details, including the groom’s name, says Elizabeth "wants to keep it very private and feels very strongly about that right now."

Elizabeth Smart Pic

The Salt Lake Tribune reports that wedding registries at Williams-Sonoma and Pottery Barn list an July 1 wedding date for Elizabeth Smart and Matthew Gilmour.

So, that's probably his name.

Chris Thomas, a rep for Elizabeth, says he can't confirm the wedding date or the name of Smart's fiancé, but says, "I know they're looking at a summer wedding."

"There are a lot of details to still be worked out. She's very public in her child advocacy work, but has decided she wants to keep her personal life private."

Congratulations to Elizabeth, her fiance and her family!

Your One-Minute Guide To SOPA And PIPA, Who's Protesting And Why
Love acronyms? Then this post is for you! SOPA is the Stop Online Piracy Act, a bill sponsored by Rep. Lamar Smith to prevent theft of American-produced content (and, notionally, other nations' content) via any of the classic means of accessing paid movies, music, and so on online--without paying for it.

Obama names Zients as acting budget chief (Reuters)

WASHINGTON (Reuters) ? President Barack Obama named senior aide Jeffrey Zients on Tuesday to serve as acting chief of the Office of Management and Budget, the White House said.

Zients, a deputy director and chief performance officer in Obama's budget office, will step in for Jack Lew, named last week as White House chief of staff to replace Bill Daley.

There was no immediate word whether Zients' appointment, which comes as Obama prepares to roll out his new budget proposal in coming weeks, means he is in the running to be nominated as OMB director.

Obama's plans for filling the position remain unclear as he seeks re-election in November. Naming Zients on an interim basis could allow the president to avoid a contentious confirmation fight with Senate Republicans who have stalled many of his nominations.

"Since day one, Jeff has demonstrated superb judgment and has provided sound advice on a whole host of issues," Obama said in a statement. "I'm confident in his ability to help us rebuild an economy where hard work and responsibility pay off and the middle class has a chance to get ahead."

Lew will be a hard act to follow. With Daley resigning after a troubled one-year tenure at the White House, Lew was chosen in part because he is well-versed in congressional politics and has forged strong relations with Democrats on Capitol Hill.

Zients has worked at OMB since 2009 and served briefly as acting director in 2010. His 20 years of business experience includes work as a management consultant. He was CEO of the The Advisory Board Company and chairman of the Corporate Executive Board.

UK: Europe will adopt sanctions on Iranian oil

(AP) ? Britain's foreign secretary said Sunday that European nations will intensify pressure on Iran over its nuclear program, but insisted the West wasn't pressing for military action.

William Hague told Sky News television that he believed the European Union would agree tough new sanctions against Tehran's oil sector later this month, and would continue to look for peaceful methods of persuading Iran to ditch its pursuit of a nuclear weapon.

Iran insists its nuclear program is intended solely for peaceful purposes, but the West and others accuse it of attempting to build a bomb. Britain's defense secretary Philip Hammond said earlier this month that Tehran was working "flat out" on its weapons program.

"We have never ruled anything out. We have not ruled out any option, or supporting any option. We believe all options should be on the table, that is part of the pressure on Iran, but we are clearly not calling for or advocating military action," Hague said.

"We are advocating meaningful negotiations, if Iran will enter into them, and the increasing pressure of sanctions to try to get some flexibility from Iran," he said.

European officials have worked for several months on banning the purchase of Iranian oil, and are expected to agree to the measures at a meeting of foreign ministers on Jan. 23.

German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said the new sanctions would help to choke off funding to Iran's nuclear program.

"Even just the option of nuclear armament by Iran would have far-reaching negative consequences far beyond the Gulf region, so it is not acceptable," German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle was quoted as saying in a weekend interview with the Rheinische Post newspaper.

"So, with new sanctions that we want to approve this month, we are now targeting the heart of the Iranian nuclear program: its oil and, with that, its sources of financing," he added. "But the door to dialogue with Iran remains open at the same time."

Westerwelle also dismissed discussion of possible military action if Iran continue to defy international demands to halt its weapons work. "We should not further charge an already tense situation in a turbulent region," he was quoted as saying.

French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe has said new European sanctions could also target its Central Bank.

"I am confident we will adopt very significant additional measures .... covering the oil sector and possibly other sectors as well," Hague said.

Britain has already downgraded ties with Iran following a major attack on its embassy in Tehran in November, which it insists was sanctioned by the country's ruling elite. In response, Britain pulled all of its diplomats out of Iran and expelled Iranian diplomats from U.K. soil.

White House responds to SOPA petition as hearing is delayed, DNS blocking on the outs

It's turned out to be a big weekend for those concerned about the controversial Stop Online Piracy Act. Yesterday came word that a key House hearing originally scheduled for Wednesday will be delayed until there is a "consensus" on the bill, and today the White House has issued an official statement on SOPA (and the Protect IP Act, its counterpart in the Senate) in response to a petition that drew thousands of signatures. While it doesn't go quite as far as to issue a firm veto threat from the President, it does lay out the administration's position in the clearest terms yet, including the condition that any proposed law "must not tamper with the technical architecture of the Internet through manipulation of the Domain Name System." That follows word late last week that Representative Lamar Smith and Senator Patrick Leahy would indeed pull the DNS provisions from SOPA and PIPA. The White House statement is less specific in other respects, but it broadly states that the administration will "not support legislation that reduces freedom of expression, increases cybersecurity risk, or undermines the dynamic, innovative global Internet."

In related news, the planned blackouts to protest SOPA and PIPA only seem to be increasing, with the popular xda-developers forum recently announcing that it will go dark at 8AM on January 18th, and return either at 8PM or as soon as it's able to get 50,000 people to sign a pledge to contact their local Senator or Representative.

Zambrano says he's happy with trade to Marlins (AP)

CARACAS, Venezuela ? Carlos Zambrano is excited about the trade that sent him from the Chicago Cubs to the Miami Marlins, expressing confidence that it will rejuvenate his career.

The hot-tempered pitcher was a three-time All-Star with the Cubs, but he feuded with teammates, management and umpires. Miami is hoping he will get back on track while pitching for his Venezuelan countryman, new Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen.

"This is like a rebirth in my career, and I say so because it is a new experience, a change that creates a new opportunity," Zambrano said Thursday in his first public comments since the deal.

Zambrano was 125-81 with a 3.60 ERA during 11 seasons with the Cubs, a rocky tenure that ended Aug. 12. He was ejected from a game, cleaned out his locker, talked about retiring and was suspended without pay.

He was sent to the Marlins last Thursday for fellow right-hander Chris Volstad. Zambrano, due to earn $18 million this season in the final year of his contract, waived his no-trade clause to accept the deal.

"My time with the Cubs was very successful except for the last two years," he said. "But I would say there were 11 years of success and would like to be remembered well in Chicago. Unfortunately the last two years there was no mutual understanding on either side and many things happened."

The 30-year-old Zambrano expressed gratitude to the Marlins for having confidence in him.

"Going to Miami will be more relaxed, waiting to do my job and together with my teammates trying to win with this team," he said.

JPMorgan earnings miss, Europe drag stocks lower (AP)

NEW YORK ? Stocks fell in morning trading after a rare earnings miss for JPMorgan Chase, the country's largest bank, and as reports swirled that France and other European governments may get their ratings cut soon.

The Dow Jones industrial average fell 123 points to 12,347 as of 1:30 Eastern time. That's a drop of 1 percent. All 30 stocks fell.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. led the Dow lower, losing 3.8 percent. Bank stocks fell broadly. Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. dropped 8 percent.

It was the first earnings miss for JPMorgan since the final quarter of 2007, a period in which a credit crunch began taking a toll on financial markets. The thinking is that if JPMorgan, widely considered one of the best managed big banks, had trouble in the fourth quarter of 2011, the rest of the industry may have trouble, too.

"JPMorgan is the gold standard," said Phil Orlando, chief equity strategist at Federated Investors. "So what happens to the banks that aren't quite as strong and aren't quite as well managed."

It's called the "cockroach theory" on trading desks, Orlando said. "You never see just one cockroach. If you see one, you know there's bound to be a lot more."

The euro slipped to its lowest level in 17 months after reports came out that Standard & Poor's may follow through on warnings to cut credit ratings for European governments. The euro dropped 1.3 percent against the dollar to $1.26. Borrowing costs for Italy and Spain, two countries at the center of the region's debt crisis, increased.

The dollar and U.S. Treasury prices rose as investors moved money into lower-risk assets. The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note fell to 1.84 percent from 1.93 percent late Thursday.

Standard & Poor's warned Dec. 5 that 15 countries that use the euro were at risk of getting downgraded, citing higher borrowing costs for top-rated governments and ongoing disagreements among European leaders.

The weakness at JPMorgan opened the season for bank earnings on a sour note. Though a pickup in the stream of U.S. earnings may help steer markets over the coming days, Europe's debt crisis is likely to remain the focus.

In other trading, the Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 14, or 1.1 percent to 1,281. The Nasdaq composite fell 26, or 1 percent, to 2,698.

Even with Friday's fall, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq remain on track to post gains for the second straight week. The Dow is down 0.1 percent for the week.

Among stocks making larger moves than the overall market Friday:

? Diamond Foods Inc., which makes Emerald Nuts, plunged 13 percent after The Wall Street Journal reported that federal prosecutors opened a criminal inquiry into its financial practices. The Journal also reported that two large shareholders have dumped most of their stakes in the company.

? Safeway Inc. rose 1.5 percent. An analyst at Jefferies placed a "buy" rating on the stock on the expectation that the grocery store chain will benefit from an improving job market, especially in California.

? Alpha Natural Resources fell 10 percent, the largest loss in the S&P 500. The coal company bought Massey Energy last year, and the U.S. Department of Justice is considering whether to prosecute those who ran Massey when its Big Branch mine exploded in 2010.

Discovery of plant 'nourishing gene' brings hope for increased crop seed yield and food security

ScienceDaily (Jan. 13, 2012) ? University of Warwick scientists have discovered a "nourishing gene" which controls the transfer of nutrients from plant to seed -- a significant step which could help increase global food production.

The research, led by the University of Warwick in collaboration with the University of Oxford and agricultural biotech research company Biogemma, has identified for the first time a gene, named Meg1, which regulates the optimum amount of nutrients flowing from mother to offspring in maize plants.

Unlike the majority of genes that are expressed from both maternal and paternal chromosomes, Meg1 is expressed only from the maternal chromosomes.

This unusual form of uniparental gene expression, called imprinting, is not restricted to plants, but also occurs in some human genes which are known to regulate the development of the placenta to control the supply of maternal nutrients during fetal growth.

While scientists have known for a while of the existence of such imprinted genes in humans and other mammals, this is the first time a parallel gene to regulate nutrient provisioning during seed development has been identified in the plant world.

The findings mean that scientists can now focus on using the gene and understanding the mechanism by which it is expressed to increase seed size and productivity in major crop plants.

Dr Jose Gutierrez-Marcos, Associate Professor in the University of Warwick's School of Life Sciences, said: "These findings have significant implications for global agriculture and food security, as scientists now have the molecular know-how to manipulate this gene by traditional plant breeding or through other methods to improve seed traits, such as increased seed biomass yield.

"This understanding of how maize seeds and other cereal grains develop -- for example in rice and wheat -- is vital as the global population relies on these staple products for sustenance."

"To meet the demands of the world's growing population in years to come, scientists and breeders must work together to safeguard and increase agricultural production."

Professor Hugh Dickinson of Oxford University's Department of Plant Sciences added: "While the identification of MEG1 is an important discovery in its own right, it also represents a real breakthrough in unravelling the complex gene pathways that regulate the provisioning and nutritional content of seeds."

The research, supported by the European Union, the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and the Royal Society , is published in Current Biology under the title Maternal control of nutrient allocation in plant seeds by genomic imprinting.
