Rick Steves: Greece in Economic Crisis and Your Travel Dreams
Rick Steves checking out the impact of the economic crisis
in Greece
June 11, 2012 http://blog.ricksteves.com/?p=7675
Retrieved December 2, 2012
With all the news about Greece’s economic problems, people
are wondering whether it’s a good time to go there or not. I’ve surveyed my
Tour Department and our Greek guides who live and work in Greece, and here’s my
report…
My guides report that our Greece tours so far this spring
have been as smooth and fun as ever — virtually unaffected by the local
political and economic events
The big concern among the hotels and restaurants we use in
Greece is whether they’ll be able to survive the downturn in tourism as many
postpone their travels there, fearing “instability.” And many sights are
running on their shorter winter schedules for lack of money to staff the longer
summer hours.
… First and foremost, Greece is a safe place to visit. In
fact, it’s a good time to visit because you will be made especially welcome.
Tourism is Greece’s heavy industry and its leading employer.
It seems to me that US media coverage of Greece has been
nothing less than hysterical — just plain silly at times, and woefully lacking
in analysis. Greeks are emotional people, and they are given to outbursts of
anger — as well as outbursts of joy. Their bad governments in recent times have
given them plenty of reasons to be angry. The scenes in Syntagma, the big
square immediately in front of the Greek parliament building, are a symptom of
this — and act as a release valve. These scenes occur only when the parliament
is voting on the hated austerity measures. When you see riots on TV, they are
generally the work of a group of anarchists who are limited to Syntagma and
know how to get on the news.
The big debate politically is austerity (from the right)
versus no austerity (from the left). Until this all sorts itself out, I would
recommend that travelers do not wear “Angela Merkel” masks. Regardless of how
the debate turns out, and who emerges as the new government, Greeks of all
political stripes will take care of tourism, so vital to its struggling
economy. The Greeks, a welcoming people at any time, will be doubly
appreciative of any visitors in these difficult circumstances.
The main impact on travelers as Greece struggles through
this period will be: shorter hours of sights; intermittent strikes; and friends
and loved ones back home wondering if Americans traveling in Greece are okay… http://blog.ricksteves.com/?p=7675

CityBizList: O’Malley sets his sights to repeal death penalty
By Robert
OBrien, Courtesy of Baltimore
Fishbowl
November 26, 2012 http://baltimore.citybizlist.com/article/o%E2%80%99malley-sets-his-sights-his-next-huge-legislative-effort
No doubt still high off his recent same-sex marriage win,
Gov. Martin O’Malley is considering another piece of progressive legislation to
add to his legacy — a
repeal of the death penalty. It’s something he’s tried unsuccessfully in
the past, but capital punishment is gradually falling out of favor with the
public. So there may be a chance.
However, if and when O’Malley makes a run for the
presidency, abolishing capital punishment in Maryland may prove a dubious asset.
According to the Washington Post, plenty of Democrats still favor letting God
sort it out, as it were, and a repeal may place O’Malley too far to the left
for national office… http://baltimore.citybizlist.com/article/o%E2%80%99malley-sets-his-sights-his-next-huge-legislative-effort

Slatest PM: The John McCain Is a Hard Man To Please edition
***Reading on an iPhone? Click here for a mobile-optimized version of the PM.***
SO YOU'RE SAYING IT DIDN'T HELP: Associated Press:
"U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice told lawmakers Tuesday that her initial
explanation of the deadly Sept. 11 raid in Libya was wrong, but her
concession failed to mollify three Republican senators who signaled they
would oppose her possible nomination to be secretary of state."
REFRESHER: AtlanticWire:
"All John McCain ever really said he wanted was for Susan Rice to come
out and talk about her statements about the Benghazi attacks, and say
that they were wrong. This afternoon, Rice appears to have done just
that."
THE GOP TRIO: John McCain: "We are significantly
troubled by many of the answers that we got and some that we didn't get
concerning evidence that was leading up to the attack on the consulate. "
Lindsey Graham: "Bottom line I'm more disturbed now than I was before
that 16 September explanation." Kelly Ayotte: "I'm more troubled today."
WHAT'S REALLY AT STAKE: New York Times:
"Their statements – coming after Ms. Rice’s conciliatory remarks during
a meeting designed to mend fences with her three critics and smooth the
way for her nomination as secretary of state if President Obama decides
on her as the successor to Hillary Rodham Clinton – attested to the
bitterness of the feud between the White House and Republicans over
Benghazi. Mr. Graham and Ms. Ayotte said that knowing what they know
now, they would place a hold on Ms. Rice’s nomination if Mr. Obama
selected her."
BUT IT'S WORTH REMEMBERING: McCain and co. need 40
votes to filibuster a nomination, a number they don't appear to have
despite their near non-stop efforts to keep the spotlight on Rice and
her original account of what happened in Benghazi.
HAPPY TUESDAY and welcome to The Slatest PM. Follow your afternoon host on Twitter at @JoshVoorhees and the whole team at @slatest.
ICYMI: China's State Paper Falls for Onion Joke About Kim Jong Un, Publishes 55 Photos in "Sexy" Tribute
WE TRUST YOU WON'T FORGET US: Associated Press:
"The historic Powerball jackpot boosted to $500 million on Tuesday was
all part of a plan lottery officials put in place early this year to
build jackpots faster, drive sales and generate more money for states
that run the game. Their plan appears to be working. Powerball tickets
doubled in price in January to $2, and while the number of tickets sold
initially dropped, sales revenue has increased by about 35 percent over
2011."
PLAN B: CBS News:
"The morning-after pill should be prescribed in advance to teens just
in case they one day need it, says the country's leading medical society
of pediatricians. The American Academy of Pediatrics said Monday that
emergency contraceptives like Plan B and Next Choice can be used to curb
a U.S. teen pregnancy rate which, while declining over the past two
decades, still surpasses that of other developed countries."
BECAUSE IT'S GOOD TO BE PREPARED: If Every U.S. State Declared War Against the Others, Which Would Win?
GET USED TO IT: Reuters:
"Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said on Tuesday that he is
disappointed that there has been 'little progress' among Democratic and
Republican lawmakers as they try to reach a deal to avoid the year-end
'fiscal cliff.' Reid, a Democrat, told reporters that not much headway
has been made since congressional leaders met with President Barack
Obama on Nov. 16."
TAHRIR SQUARE: Washington Post:
"Egyptian opposition forces rallied across the country Tuesday in the
biggest show of dissent against the country’s first democratically
elected leader since he precipitated a political crisis last week with
an apparent bid to assume near-absolute power. A loose coalition of
rights groups, liberals and secularists poured into Cairo’s Tahrir
Square and other public spaces, urging President Mohamed Morsi to
rescind a decree he issued Thursday that granted him the authority to
legislate without judicial oversight. But many also used Tuesday’s mass
protests as an opportunity to call for the downfall of Morsi and his
Muslim Brotherhood backers, underscoring a complex political conflict in
the newly democratic country that runs far deeper than the move that
Morsi’s opponents have labeled a power grab."
APPLE MAPS: Bloomberg:
"Apple Inc. (AAPL) has fired the manager responsible for its troubled
mapping software, seeking to win back the trust of users disappointed
after the program debuted in September, according to people familiar
with the move. Richard Williamson, who oversaw the mapping team, was
pushed out by Senior Vice President Eddy Cue, said the people....
Critics have faulted Apple’s new map software for unreliable landmark
searches, routes that get users lost and lack of public transit
directions."
WOMEN IN COMBAT: Christian Science Monitor:
The American Civil Liberties Union sued on Tuesday on behalf of four
U.S. servicewomen to challenge a longstanding policy barring women from
thousands of ground combat positions, citing the changing nature of
warfare and fairness for career soldiers. The civil rights group argued
in a legal complaint filed in federal court in Northern California that a
military policy to bar women from combat roles on the basis of gender
was unconstitutional."

Cyber Alert: ABC Salivates Over ‘Mutiny’ Against Anti-Tax Pledge
1. ABC Salivates Over ‘Mutiny’ Against Anti-Tax Pledge That’s Been ‘Obstacle to Raising Taxes,’ Hail New ‘Flexibility’
ABC anchor Diane Sawyer and correspondent Jonathan Karl on Monday night salivated over Republicans breaking Grover Norquist’s anti-tax pledge. “We did see a sign the paralysis may be ending,” Sawyer relayed over “Tax Revolt?” on screen, touting “a Republican mutiny against a man who had convinced them to take a pledge.” She soon trumpeted the “new sign of flexibility.” As if that’s a bad thing, Jonathan Karl fretted “the pledge is the biggest obstacle to any deal that would raise taxes.” But he saw hope ahead in how “with a budget crisis on the horizon and a re-elected President insisting on tax increases, some Republicans are now thinking the unthinkable: Ditching the pledge.”
2. NBC Eager to See Republicans 'Peeling Off' from Tax Pledge, Pressures Rest of GOP to Do the Same
Talking to chief White House correspondent Chuck Todd on Monday's NBC Today, co-host Savannah Guthrie enthusiastically touted: "...we've seen a few Republicans peeling off from a pledge they signed to Grover Norquist, who, of course, is a lobbyist, an anti-tax lobbyist, who's been very powerful among conservatives. Is that a significant move?" Todd replied by urging the rest of the GOP to similarly abandon core conservative principles: "I'll be impressed when you start seeing House Republicans do it....where it looks like Republicans are softening, it's Senate Republicans. If this deal could be cut between the Senate Republicans and the White House, we wouldn't even be talking about this...the fiscal cliff wouldn't be an issue."
3. CBS Lobbies Senator Corker to Renege on Anti-Tax Hike Pledge, Raise Capital Gains Tax
Charlie Rose and Norah O'Donnell sung from the same liberal sheet music on Monday's CBS This Morning as they tried to get Republican Senator Bob Corker to commit to higher federal taxes. Rose wondered if the Corker was "prepared, as others are doing, to...say, I'm going to forgo the [anti-tax hike] pledge because it is outdated and the country's problems are too big." O'Donnell asked the Tennessee politician if he was "willing to also raise the capital gains rate." O'Donnell also cited "independent analysis" by the Tax Policy Center, but omitted that it is a project of two liberal organizations - the Urban Institute and the Brookings Institution.
4. CNN Pleads With Republicans, 'Don't Fear the Grover'
CNN broke out the pom-poms on Monday and cheered the Republicans who reneged on Grover Norquist's no-tax hike pledge. CNN contributor John Avlon lauded them as "profiles in courage." Avlon quipped that now "people don't fear the Grover. And that's a good thing, you know." Anchor Carol Costello clearly liked the GOP mutiny, asking "how excited should we really be by all of this talk of throwing Grover Norquist under the bust [sic]?" Later in the day, Brooke Baldwin enthused: "'Don't fear the Grover.' Best quote of the day."
5. Wolf Blitzer Badgers House Majority Whip to Raise Taxes
After smiling on Republicans who stepped away from Grover Norquist's no-tax hike pledge, CNN pressured the GOP House Majority Whip to raise income tax rates on Monday's The Situation Room. Anchor Wolf Blitzer suggested a tax hike on those making over $250,000 a year, noting "those families and those small businesses did quite well during the years of the Clinton administration when the rate was 39.6. Why not go back to that?"
6. Chris Matthews Outrageously Links Unhappy Conservatives to Hitler
Chris Matthews on Monday disgustingly connected conservatives unhappy with the 2012 election to Hitler and the 1936 Olympics. After Huffington Post journalist Howard Fineman mocked the GOP for supposedly considering the African American and Hispanic vote to be "extraterrestrial," Matthews spewed, "The last guy to refer to the black auxiliary was Hitler." Matthews, known for his verbal gaffes, prefaced the Nazi comparison by rambling, "...And these references are always dangerous, but I'll take it anyway." Trying to explain his smear, the Hardball anchor expanded, "During the '36 Olympics, we had Jesse Owens and a couple other guys winning the Olympics and they [the Nazis] were saying, "Well, they had their auxiliary out there." As if this made his comments all go away, Matthews added that his comments have "no bearing on the Republican Party."
7. Meet the Press Panelist Ken Burns of PBS Denounces Tea Party 'Vitriol' Motivated By Racism
During a discussion of the new film Lincoln on Sunday's NBC Meet the Press, PBS documentary film maker Ken Burns ranted about one of the supposed lessons he took away from the movie: "Race is always there in America....Do you think we'd have a secession movement in Texas and the other places, faddish secession movement, if this president wasn't African-American? Do you think the vitriol that came out of some elements of the Tea Party would have been at the same level had this President not been Africa-American?"

“E-mails are the spawn of Satan.”
“Similarly, the more important a position or office a man
holds, the more likely he is to do some dumb shit.”
“I think what happens in a public figure's personal life
should be just that: personal. Not in the public arena. I don't care what
anyone wants to say: … What good purpose, other than the cruel sport of
ho-shaming, can the public picking apart of these people serve for the figures,
their families?

It was just days after the election when it was publically
revealed that CIA Director David Petraeus was resigning
his post because he had conducted an extra-marital affair with Lt. Col.
Paula Broadwell, his biographer, from late 2011 until last summer… http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=5475

Who is Holly Petraeus? by Adriana Velez at CaféMom.com
Who Is Holly Petraeus? The Scorned General's Wife Isn't All
She Seems
Posted by Adriana Velez on
November 14, 2012 http://www.cafemom.com/group/107447/forums/read/17577096/Smarter_Mom_Handling_The_Not_So_Perfect_Trip?prism_id=146665&utm_medium=sem2&utm_campaign=prism&utm_source=outbrain&utm_content=1668.2822
As the Petraeus sex scandal continues to spiral, there's one
person I keep wondering about: David's wife of 37 years, Holly Petraeus. How is
she taking this scandal? Is she furious, heartbroken -- is she surprised? Did
she ever suspect her husband was fooling around?
You've seen the photos of Holly: A grandmotherly woman with
a gray bob and swept bangs, almost always smiling, glasses perched on her nose.
She reminds me of oatmeal cookies -- sweet, wholesome, and a little
old-fashioned. But dainty? Forget it. Behind that kind smile is a woman made of
iron. She's an Army wife. Not just an Army wife, but a four-star General's wife
who's managed to forge her own path and identity.
Holly is what they call military royalty. Her father is
retired four-star General William Knowlton, formerly the superintendent of the
United States Military Academy when Petraeus was a cadet there. He also served
as a NATO commander. Holly's ancestors fought in the Civil War, Spanish
American War, and the Indian Wars.
She met David as a student when she was visiting her family
from Dickinson College… http://www.cafemom.com/group/107447/forums/read/17577096/Smarter_Mom_Handling_The_Not_So_Perfect_Trip?prism_id=146665&utm_medium=sem2&utm_campaign=prism&utm_source=outbrain&utm_content=1668.2822

Eagle Archive: Recalling when a Bull Moose 'Teddy' charged through Westminster
In this 1912 photo by Philip Myers, former President Teddy Roosevelt delivers a campaign speech from the front of the American Sentinel newspaper office in Westminster. (Historical photo by Philip Myers / November 17, 2012)
By Kevin E. Dayhoff November 17, 2012
Presidential election politics are over for 2012 (well, sort of), but we can still recall local history related to our nation's chief executives. For instance, the Nov. 15, 1964, edition of the Baltimore Sun's Sunday Magazine carried a story by Philip Myers with the headline, "I Remember … Theodore Roosevelt in Westminster."

In 1912, Myers was a freshman at then-Western Maryland College — now McDaniel — and one of his hobbies was photography…. http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/neighborhoods/westminster/ph-ce-eagle-archive-1118-20121114,0,4694880.story

Remembering the most wonderful time of year for 'Stanta' Claus
Remembering the most wonderful time of year for 'Stanta' Claus
Remembering the most wonderful time of year for 'Stanta' Claus By Kevin Dayhoff, November 20, 2012 Planning for Christmas in Westminster is almost as much a cherished tradition as the holiday itself… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/community/ph-ce-remembering-stan-1118-20121119,0,4483663.story
But for many, Christmas 2012 will not quite be the same without Stan Ruchlewicz, the City of Westminster's administrator of economic development and Main Street manager, who died of a heart attack on June 5 at age 56.
During the holiday season, Ruchlewicz was a perennial fixture at the Locust Lane Santa House, serving as "Stanta" Claus to the delight of children and parents alike.
But he was also a driving force behind many of the events that make up the annual Miracle on Main Street activities in Westminster: the parade, the tree lighting and other special events that bring people, businesses and organizations together… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/community/ph-ce-remembering-stan-1118-20121119,0,4483663.story
