Germany's Steinbrueck urges SPD unity to oust Merkel

MUENSTER, Germany (Reuters) - Peer Steinbrueck, the man chosen to lead Germany's opposition Social Democrats into an election next year as its candidate for chancellor, called for party unity on Saturday, saying it would otherwise be difficult to unseat Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Steinbrueck, a feisty former finance minister distrusted by Social Democrat (SPD) leftwingers for his centrist economic views, also repeated his opposition to serving under Merkel, a conservative, in a future coalition government.

"This federal election can only be won with the mobilization of our supporters ... Unity is important," Steinbrueck told a party rally in Muenster in the western region of North-Rhine Westphalia, where he once served as state premier.

"An SPD candidate for chancellor must reach 62 million voters," he added, signaling a pitch for the middle ground where he hopes to lure supporters of Merkel's conservatives.

In power since 2005 and buoyed by her calm and resolute handling of the three-year-old euro debt crisis, Merkel enjoys higher approval ratings than Steinbrueck, while opinion polls put her party comfortably ahead of the SPD.

A snap poll conducted by ARD-DeutschlandTrends on Friday showed Merkel had 50 percent personal backing against 36 percent for Steinbrueck. Poll participants considered Merkel more likeable and credible than Steinbrueck and also more likely to overcome the euro crisis.

But 58 percent of respondents also thought that Steinbrueck, who was named as the SPD's "chancellor candidate" on Friday, would be a good candidate for his party and he was considered stronger on the theme of social justice than Merkel.

Despite their lead in the polls, Merkel's conservatives may struggle to form a government if their current coalition ally, the liberal Free Democrats, do badly in the 2013 election. She may then have to consider a coalition with the SPD like the one she led in 2005-09 when Steinbrueck ran the finance ministry.

UNCOMPROMISING

On Saturday, Steinbrueck repeated his preference for a coalition with the Greens and his unwillingness to cut a deal with Merkel.

"I will not be won over to (serve in) a Merkel cabinet ... We want to throw out all three from this government," he said, referring to Merkel's Christian Democrats, their Bavaria-based sister party the Christian Social Union and the FDP.

To loud applause, Steinbrueck reaffirmed his plans for tighter regulation of the financial markets and also called for a legal minimum wage and increased spending on education.

Known for his acerbic wit, Steinbrueck emerged as the SPD's candidate after two other contenders, party chairman Sigmar Gabriel and former foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier, stepped aside.

Saturday's newspapers said the choice of the combative Steinbrueck would make for a much more interesting election.

"On the one side stands the controlled and composed chancellor who seems to get on top of every crisis and is trusted by the Germans," said the best-selling Bild tabloid.

"And on the other is the passionate, rough-edged but also often thin-skinned Steinbrueck ... He will give everything for victory, without any Plan B, without a safety net for himself. If he loses that could be politically the end for him. That deserves respect. This time Germans will have a real choice."

Little Big Town ?Tornado? Album Review

Little Big Town ?Tornado? Album Review

?Pavement Ends? is a countrified song and if you haven?t lived in the country you may not get it. Living in Southern California again?I get it. Gotta get out of town and have some fun in mother nature with your friends. This song has a ton of country twang to it and it gets the album off to a great start. I dare you not to bob your head or stomp your feet to this song. Seriously try. You can?t. Fun song. Great song.

?Pontoon? is a song that makes me want to get a house boat for the weekend with some friends or may e a pontoon. This song has pep and is a very happy feel good song. The bass line jams an the drums are poppy. The lyrics are light and catchy. You can?t help but sing along. It?s a great summer time hit and should bring back some great memories for you like it does for me. I?ve heard it 5 times so far today on the radio. It?s great. Love it.

?Sober? is a love song about loving being in love and drunk on love. This is a cool song. It?s not slow nor is it fast. It has a nice pace to it and the message rings out loud and clear. ?When I die I don?t want to die sober? No one wants to die lonely. I agree. I don?t anyway. ?I love being in love. It?s the best kind of drug.? Yes it is. Such pretty harmonies. This is such a pretty song. I love it. Great song.

?Front Porch Thing? is going to get rid of your country blues with some good ole southern rock country blues. This song fucking rocks! ?Having so much Fun in outa be a sin!? I want to go jam with these guys on their porch. Sounds like a great time as the guitar licks ring out the song ends. I want more! That must be a great live song. Love it. Great song. Radio time. Next please.

?Your Side of the Bed? is sad song. Nothing worse than being with the one you love and knowing that you are a million miles apart. Lying still in the deafening silence of a dying love. Beautiful song. I feel really depressed and completely alone. LONELY It did it?s job. Great song.

?Leavin? in Your Eyes? is a sight no one wants to see. This is country and it has to be sung. This song has great music behind it. It is very poppy. It is a good song but not grabbing a hold of me like the rest of the album has done. Great harmonies and it is musically great, but I?m not feeling it. Good song.

?Tornado? is a song about a woman tearing a man?s heart to pieces and destroy him because she can. Something about women scorned. Pretty sure I?ve covered that in another review. The destructive force that is woman. Stop pissing them off guys?..And can you ladies not take out your rage on the few good guys out there. They are not the ones that broke your heart. ?I?m a tornado. Looking for a man to break.? Ruthless! I?m not saying some guys don?t deserve it. They do. This should be on the radio in the next few months. Boot on you heart stomping boots girls and let?s ride. Good song.

?On Fire Tonight? is an upbeat fun song that gets the blood pumping. Getting back to having a good time and letting go of all the troubles the world piles on your shoulders. The guitar is rocking and the band is jamming. The lyrics are catchy and ?Be on Fire tonight? yes we are. Let?s burn this baby down. Barn burner for sure. Great song.

?Can?t Go Back? is a look back at the things we wish we could change. Gorgeous harmonies. ?I don?t want to see this house not be a home. I don?t want to witness the end of you and me.? Very mellow song. We can not fix our mistakes and let the important moments in our lives slip away. Live in the now and love while you can. Tell them you love them every chance you get. You never know when it?s your last breath. Good Song.

?Self Made? is about self confidence and making the world around you the world you want it to be. Relying on others will never help you reach your dreams. Dream Big. Do Big. Be Big. The success of the self made person is far more rewarding than anything handed to you. Fun upbeat song with a positive message. Of course I love it. Great song.

?Night Owl? is a good song to grab your girl and slow dance to. Wishing that a night owl is waiting up for you? Me too. This is a pretty song and a nice finish to the album. You can feel the love in this song. ?I hope you?re not asleep when I get there.?

You are gonna go through this album like a Tornado. It moves fast and is built for speed. Every song is made radio ready by Little Big Town. Short and to the point. I can easily hear any of these songs on the radio today. Man can they sing. Wow! Seriously?.as a song writer I am in awe of them. They make it seem effortless. The album is a mix of slow sad songs with life lessons and fast live your life with lots of love songs. Everything you expect from a country album. Although, I would like some fiddle in here but that?s just me; but someone should buy the band a beer cause they are rocking. There are some really great songs in here and Little Big Town has a big sound with an even bigger heart. I?m sure there is a little town out there proud of their homegrown stars. This is a good album for your Country Music collection and I for one need to catch Little Big Town in concert soon.

Amber Alert for 2 children after Tenn. fire

AP

This combination of undated photos provided by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation shows Gage Daniel, 7, left, and Chloie Leverette, 9. The two children are now considered missing and in danger, investigators said.

By NBC News and wire services

Authorities in Tennessee have issued a statewide Amber Alert for two young siblings who have missing since their grandparent?s home was destroyed by a fire.

"We don't know where they are," Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Kristin Helm told WSMV-TV. "We don't have any indication that they're in another state."

Authorities issued the alert late Friday evening after investigators spent a fifth day trying to determine if there were any remains of the children in the fire debris.


The children, identified as Chloie Leverette, 9, and Gage Daniel, 7, were living with their grandparents at the house that burned Sunday night and early Monday.

Choking back tears at times, Gage?s father, Christopher Daniel, said he had no idea what could have happened to the children.?"I don't know what to think. I don't know what to think," Daniel told The Associated Press. "They don't think that they burned up in the fire, the way I took it they don't."

The children have not been seen since before the fire Sunday night.

Two bodies tentatively identified as 72-year-old Leon "Bubba" McClaran and his wife, 70-year-old Molli McClaran, were recovered Monday and have been sent to the Nashville medical examiner's office for autopsy. She was the children's maternal grandmother, he their step-grandfather.

"To err on the side of caution, as far as law enforcement is concerned, we feel like we can leave no stone unturned and just try to follow every lead that we can to ensure that they're not somewhere else," Helm told WSMV-TV in Nashville. "I don't know where else they would be. They were a close knit family."

Multiple fire experts had processed the debris of the incinerated farmhouse and no trace of the children was found, authorities say.

Helm said the TBI does not have any direct evidence that the children are victims of foul play. She said there are no persons of interest in the case and that investigators are following all leads, but would not elaborate.

Forensic teams from Middle Tennessee State University and the University of Tennessee at Knoxville were brought in to help in the search.

Forensic anthropologist Steven A. Symes, who formerly worked in the medical examiner's office for Shelby County, said it was a smart decision for authorities to bring in these teams because they have the expertise.

"It just takes some screening and some close looking and understanding that a piece of drywall and piece of skull bone burned look about identical," he said.

Symes said the recovery of remains from fires has advanced as the forensic anthropology field grows, but he acknowledged it is still a slow process. He said the length of time to recover remains depends on the scene and how detailed the search is.

"Unfortunately sometimes a case that you least expect to be suspicious or difficult turns into that type of case," he said.

Neighbor Erika Barnet said she was starting to come to terms that her neighbors may have died in the fire, but now says she doesn?t know what to think.

"It was just fire everywhere," Barnett told WSMV-TV. "As hot as that fire was over there, I don't see how they would have gotten out."

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Real Estate Education: 4 Critical Factors for Choosing Your CourseBy FortuneBuilders

So you want to get into real estate investing? How do you choose the best real estate education course to ensure your success?

Here are 4 critical factors you want to consider?

1. Works Now

Yes, the shelves of the local bookstore are stacked with books on real estate investing and you can probably find a great deal on a 10 year old course on eBay but the industry and consumers have changed so fast that you need a program that is up to date and still works now. Even more important than just working is making sure that you are on the right side of the law. What was legal 7 years ago could get you a life sentence today.

2. Systems

You could pick up a hundred year old manuscript and find some great golden nuggets or even discover some great insight on real estate investing strategies others have used via blogs and attending investors? groups. However, in order to bring it all together and actually, consistently invest profitably and be able to grow your investment business without falling into a financial nightmare it takes systems. It is effective systems and adherence to sound investment principals which has enabled the few to continue to invest through some of the ?worst? years in the housing market and come out on top. It makes all the difference and it gives you a proven step by step roadmap to achieving success.

3. Ongoing Support

There is so much to learn about real estate investing that it?s true even the most comprehensive courses can?t include every single detail. The best may give you everything you need to get going and start making money from real estate investing and even speed up your success but the odds are you will have questions down the road or want to take it to the next level. Does your source of real estate education provide access to ongoing support or coaching?

4. What are the Returns?

Perhaps the most important thing to ask before you even begin looking at real estate investing education options is ?how successful do you want to be??. Like the effort you put in to anything is directly related to the results received, often so is the investment you make in your education. There are some who might say they?d never even invest $1,000 in their education. Of course they will probably also be the ones asking you for $100 for gas or groceries when everything goes wrong for them down the road too. Yes, you can solicit advise from your local amateur real estate investing guru down the street who ?appears? to be doing well or buy that book on last night?s infomercial but why is it so cheap? Why are they selling themselves so short if it really packs so much value?

Best advice: find a system which is broken up into affordable and edible bites which you can grow into and will truly take you where you want to go.

Tea party star West uses opponent's mug shot in ad

WASHINGTON (AP) ? In a bid to hold onto his House seat, freshman Republican Rep. Allen West is making his opponent's bleary mug shot from nine years ago the focus of a blistering ad.

On a single night in February 2003, the ad released Friday notes, West was on an Army base in Texas, preparing to go to war. College student Patrick Murphy, meanwhile, was being arrested outside a Miami-area nightclub after an alleged drunken brawl, the ad says.

"Two men, a country in crisis. You decide," says a narrator.

The ad from the Florida tea party star uses dramatic music and visuals of a scope's crosshairs to emulate a high-tech spy flick. Murphy's mug shot plays a prominent role in the spot.

Murphy's campaign responded by pointing out that Murphy was just 19 when he was arrested and that West was later reprimanded for his conduct in Iraq and was 42 at the time.

"The only reason (West) escaped prosecution was that he cut a deal to retire," Murphy campaign manager Anthony Kusich said in a fundraising letter Friday.

West is one of the most fiery members of the 2010 freshman class that helped Republicans take control of the House. He's one of several first-termers struggling to defend their seats after a two-year session of gridlock and infighting that dropped Congress' approval ratings to record lows. The GOP is expected to hold the House, but by a smaller margin.

West is a top Democratic target this year, in the party's drive to gain 25 seats and the House majority.

The release of the ad hints at the cutthroat nature of the race.

West won his seat in 2010 on his second go for the House, unseating Democratic Rep. Ron Klein in a competitive district. The race attracted President Barack Obama, who appeared on Klein's behalf, but it wasn't enough to spare the incumbent during a tough year for Democrats.

In 2012, conditions are tougher for West as he fights for a second term. Mapmakers in the once-per-decade redistricting process redrew West into a more Democratic district, and he opted to run for re-election in a different district to improve his prospects. But the new turf where West is squaring off with Murphy is winnable for both parties. Murphy, a CPA, has attempted to paint West as too extreme for Florida, and has gotten a hand in fundraising from former President Bill Clinton.

Murphy's adviser, Eric Johnson, said it was ironic that West would bring up his own military record in an ad hitting Murphy on legal issues. West, a lieutenant colonel, was reprimanded by the military for allegedly firing a pistol next to an Iraqi's head as he attempted to extract information from the detainee. He was fined $5,000 but allowed to retire with full benefits.

Murphy got some backup from the House Majority PAC, a group backing Democratic House candidates across the country, which released an ad Friday that amounts to a greatest-hits reel of West's more controversial statements, including one earlier in 2012 in which he estimated that about 80 House Democrats are Communists. The political action committee said it is spending $1.5 million on Florida airwaves attacking West.

Although Democratic prospects for reclaiming the majority in the House seem dim, Florida is home to many of the party's better opportunities to pick up seats. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has spent about $250,000 tying West to Rep. Paul Ryan, Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's running mate.

92% Neil Young Journeys

All Critics (48) | Top Critics (20) | Fresh (44) | Rotten (4)

"Journeys" is simply a trip most need not take.

I'd say the movie does a fine job of completing the trilogy, but I wouldn't be surprised if Demme and Young have more in them yet.

Like Young, Demme often takes an iconoclastic route. This is in part a concert film, yes, but not a traditional one.

Forget Crosby, Stills and Nash and maybe even Crazy Horse. Jonathan Demme might be Neil Young's ultimate collaborator.

As a songwriter, Young can still deliver: one of the best tunes here is a lovely, piano-propelled number, "Leia," that he hasn't even released yet.

The wartsy antipode of Katy Perry: Part of Me, with an intimacy and intensity bordering on the overwhelming.

...just Young and his insinuating voice (which I'm inclined to credit more now than I was 40 years ago), various guitars, harmonica and piano, over which he displays a great and tender command.

Fans of folk rock legend Neil Young who are willing to accept that the guy is well past his prime will respond to the downbeat tone of Jonathan Demme's concert film.

The director is putting Young in the audience's lap, allowing the viewer to examine all the creases and crevices of his grizzled face as well as capturing the emotion the singer pours into his songs.

These two world-renowned and individualistic artists from the worlds of music and film clearly bask in each other's company. We, the audience, would be fools to respond otherwise.

Long may he run, sure, but 'Neil Young Journeys' has the feeling of a farewell.

"Journeys" is about looking back - not in sorrow or wistfulness, but in affection and, often, impassioned remembrance of times past and how they still resonate in the present.

A mesmerizing and intimate visit with a performer who is identified most closely with rock 'n' roll, but whose artistic curiosity has taken him in myriad directions musically throughout his 40-plus-year career.

Neil Young Journeys does for some of us what a rare film can do - it revives and renews our spirit. Neil Young and Jonathan Demme. Heart and soul. Wisdom and age. Fire and ashes. Lightning and thunder.

For fans, Journeys is like that box set of uneven rarities that they simply must own. For casual friends, it's 90 minutes in good company. For the rest - ho-hum.

An unusually fulsome tribute to the singer-songwriter from the director of The Silence of the Lambs.

On its own terms, "Neil Young Journeys" is an enjoyable concert film of a solo show in Toronto, interspersed with memories of his Canadian boyhood.

The concert camera work is sometimes a little tight for comfort (not really interested in Young's bridge work), though it adds to the intensity.

Movie fans probably don't need to hear him sing "Ohio" again, but "Neil Young Journeys" -- Jonathan Demme's second Young doc, if you're counting -- does have some new wrinkles.

In a sense, this film finishes a cycle that began with the homey and impressive "Neil Young: Heart of Gold" and continued with the raucous "Neil Young Trunk Show" of 2009.

"Look at Mother Nature on the run..."

Seeking Submissions By First Time Screenwriters, Producers ...

- Suzanna Bowling- on September 28, 2012.

A celebration of first time filmmakers ? is the new and unique film festival, event and opportunity taking place in New York City from March 1-March 4, 2013. Just as Quentin Tarantino had ?Reservoir Dogs,? Orson Welles his ?Citizen Kane,? Sam Mendes? ?American Beauty,? Rob Reiner with ?This Is Spinal Tap,? and John Huston had ?The Maltese Falcon? as their first works, First Time Fest?s mission is to discover and present the next generation of great cinema by first time screenwriters, producers, directors, editors, composers and cinematographers to a cinema-loving public and to select and present these films and filmmakers in a most unique and dynamic fashion. FTF is currently seeking submissions for its inaugural event.

First Time Fest will be a four-day, multi-faceted event based in New York City?s Gramercy Park at the celebrated Players Club, founded by Edwin Booth and Mark Twain, the oldest and most exclusive arts organization of its kind. Films will be screened at the Loews Village VII (on 11th St. & 3rd Ave).

First Time Fest represents a hybrid between a traditional film festival and a highly motivated audience participation event. The featured films of First Time Fest will embody the work of 12 finalists, selected from a submission pool of potentially thousands of films. Each of the 12 finalists will have his or her feature screened during the Festival before an audience of industry professionals and the general public. A panel of five jurors will then decide the Grand Prize winner. Four of these judges will be of the film industry elite, while the fifth judge, unlike any other festival in the world, will be the collective ?Voting Public? or ?VPs.? These VPs ? 120 on each of the Festival?s days ? will be selected by lottery from the thousands of moviegoers expected to attend First Time Fest. Additionally, 12 special VPs will be selected in a nationwide contest to represent the country at large.

The Grand Prize winner of First Time Fest will be presented at an exclusive gala on the final day of the Festival, and will receive an offer of theatrical distribution arranged through a partnership between First Time Fest and Cinema Libre Studio, a successful international entertainment company based in Los Angeles, California. Cinema Libre has produced over 15 award-winning international films, and has distributed more than 100 films in its 20 years of operations. Beyond distribution, the winner will be provided international sales representation by Cinema Libre and will receive a host of other major prizes. First Time Fest will also present other prizes during the Awards Ceremony, including: ?Outstanding Direction,? Outstanding Screenplay,? ?Outstanding Cinematography,? ?Outstanding Editing,? and ?Outstanding Score.?

Each of First Time Fest?s twelve finalists will receive a one-year, high-level industry mentorship.? This mentorship will involve regular contact with prominent members of the independent filmmaking community: producers, distributors, sales agents, talent representatives (agents and managers), lawyers, consultants, and, most importantly, respected cinema artists: directors, writers, editors, cinematographers and composers. First Time Fest deeply believes in the artistic and professional development of its participants, and will coordinate these intensive mentorship opportunities on their behalf. And, as each finalist is granted a one-year membership at the Player?s Club, they also have a fantastic opportunity to regularly interact with the Player?s entertainment industry members.

First Time Fest will also include a series of panels called ?How They Did It,? in which a diverse group of award-winning filmmakers will moderate filmmaking case studies which spotlight some of the most successful and accomplished masters of the industry.

In addition, First Time Fest and the Players Club will be presenting the first John Huston Prize for Lifetime Achievement in Cinema. The Award will be presented to an individual who has made s significant contribution to the art of cinema, and whose presence in our community has offered leadership and inspiration to other cinema artists. The Award is named in honor of one of America?s greatest filmmakers, who was an esteemed member of the Players Club (John Huston?s membership in the Club was sponsored by his friend and colleague, Humphrey Bogart).? It will be an extraordinary event.

We will also be celebrating the 60th anniversary of Morris Engel?s ?The Little Fugitive.? This film, a cinema v?rit? classic from 1953, was shot entirely on Coney Island and has inspired countless filmmakers, including Martin Scorsese, Fran?ois Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard, who credit it for launching the French New Wave. Unfortunately, few members of the public (and even many filmmakers) know of Engel?s work, and we hope that this tribute curated by renowned film historian Foster Hirsch, along with a panel to scheduled to include his daughter Mary Engel,? and the star of the film, Richard Brewster, will redress that..

Johanna Bennett and Mandy Ward serve as co-founders of First Time Fest. As an accomplished philanthropist, actor and social entrepreneur, as well as the daughter of singer Tony Bennett, Johanna has immersed herself within the entertainment and artistic community her entire life. Mandy has worked in the film industry for nearly 10 years in varied capacities, namely as a film producer of several projects. Mitch Levine, CEO of The Film Festival Group, is serving as an active advisor and consultant to the team. Through his company, Mitch offers consulting services and expertise to film festivals, film commissions, distribution companies and filmmakers around the world, and was formerly the CEO and Executive Director of the renowned Palm Springs International Film Festival. David Schwartz, the Artistic Director and Head Curator of Museum of the Moving Image, has come on to become the Director of Programing for First Time Fest.

(AP) ? As consumers we want our electronic gadgets to be durable. But as patients, we might want them to dissolve ? inside our bodies.

Scientists reported Thursday that they succeeded in creating tiny medical devices sealed in silk cocoons that did the work they were designed for, then dissolved in the bodies of lab mice. It's an early step in a technology that may hold promise, not only for medicine, but also for disposal of electronic waste.

The new work is "a remarkable achievement" in combining materials to produce a working device, said Christopher Bettinger of Carnegie Mellon University. He works on biodegradable electronics but was not involved in the study.

Doctors already use implants that dispense drugs or provide electrical stimulation, but they don't dissolve. The new work is aimed at making devices that do their jobs as long as needed and then just dissolved, without need for surgical removal or risk of long-term side effects.

In the experiment, the devices ? which look like tiny computer chips ? were designed to generate heat, a potential strategy for fighting infection after surgery by killing germs, said John Rogers of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, an author of the study.

The devices worked in the mice for more than a week, until their silk coatings dissolved enough for bodily fluids to erode key parts of the devices, he said. After three weeks, the tiny gadgets had basically disappeared.

Someday for people, similar devices might be programmed to monitor the body and release drugs accordingly, or produce electric current to accelerate bone healing, Rogers said.

The researchers used the protective cocoon envelope because silk can be processed to stay intact for varying periods of time ? from seconds to weeks and potentially for years, he said. The device's circuitry itself was built from other materials that degrade in the body, such as magnesium and silicon.

The federally funded research was reported online in the journal Science.

Apart from medicine, the technology offers a way to cut down on electronic waste, or E-waste, if portable consumer devices could be made with decomposing components, the researchers wrote.

And there are other potential uses, too Rogers suggested. For example, such devices could be scattered near a chemical spill to monitor things like chemical concentrations without any need to retrieve them later.

As debate looms, Romney looks to Pennsylvania

(AP) ? His path to victory narrowing, Mitt Romney is looking to Pennsylvania to help slow President Barack Obama's momentum ahead of a high-stakes meeting on the debate stage next week.

The Republican presidential nominee was to campaign Friday in the Philadelphia area, first courting donors at a high-dollar fundraiser and then meeting voters at a midday rally.

Fresh off a promise to spend more time in the swing states that matter most, Romney will pass much of the day in a state that has not supported a Republican presidential candidate in nearly a quarter-century. His campaign is not running any television ads in Pennsylvania, and aides privately concede that Obama has a significant advantage just 40 days before Election Day.

They suggest that Romney's visit ? his first to the state in more than two months ? is largely designed to raise the money needed to narrow Obama's edge in more competitive states. After raising $5 million at a Washington event Thursday, Romney is expected to generate more than $1 million in Philadelphia and an additional $7 million at a Boston fundraiser later Friday.

"We're going to have to make the right choice on Nov. 6, and you're going to make that happen," Romney told cheering donors in Washington.

Obama will also focus on raising cash Friday as he keeps his campaign close to Washington, where he has three fundraising events scheduled.

He is set to deliver remarks at a finance event at the Capital Hilton in Washington, where tickets start at $250 but go as high as $10,000 per couple. Obama will attend a smaller fundraiser at a private residence before returning to the Capitol Hilton for a third event.

On Thursday, Romney and Obama campaigned a few hundred miles apart in Virginia.

The president pledged to create many more jobs and "make the middle class secure again," while Romney focused on threats beyond American shores, accusing Obama of backing dangerous cuts in defense spending.

The Republican's message, including questions about the president's response to recent violence in Libya, comes as he tries to move beyond his long-held economic focus to help score political points and reverse a slide in the polls.

"The idea of cutting our military is unthinkable and devastating. And when I become president we will not," Romney declared at an American Legion hall in Springfield, Va.

He is expected to push a similar message on Friday in suburban Philadelphia during a rally at Valley Forge Military Academy and College.

While Romney aides are not optimistic about their chances in Pennsylvania, Republicans are not giving up on the state.

"We have an aggressive operation and ground game in place," campaign spokesman Rick Gorka said.

The state GOP is set to begin running a television ad Friday assailing Obama's economic leadership. Pennsylvania's unemployment rate, at 8.1 percent, is slightly less than the national average.

Obama and Romney are scheduled to face off Wednesday in Denver for the first of three presidential debates, which may represent the challenger's best remaining opportunity to change the trajectory of his campaign. Romney has struggled through a series of perceived missteps in weeks amid signs that confidence in the nation's economy is on the rise.

The Obama campaign released a political memo on Friday saying it expects Romney "to be a prepared, disciplined and aggressive debater."

However, it said that while the president would be laying out his vision for the coming years, Romney has "signaled that he will come to indict the president for the fact that the economy has not fully recovered from the collapse of 2008."

The Obama memo and an accompanying web video also aim to debunk claims by Romney that the president has mischaracterized the Republican's positions on the auto industry bailout, abortion and raising taxes on wage earners to cover tax cuts for multimillionaires.

Obama was expected to meet with advisers Friday to prepare for next week's debate. The president was departing Sunday for Nevada, where he planned to hold debate practice sessions near Las Vegas.

Romney has been focused on fundraising and debate preparation for several weeks, raising some questions from within the GOP about his strategy. Earlier in the week, Romney said the time had come in the campaign when he would start spending less time with donors and more time with voters in swing states.

Following his stop in Pennsylvania, Romney heads to Boston for an evening fundraiser and a weekend focused on more debate preparation.

In an election centered largely on the economy, each side got some new ammunition on Thursday. The Commerce Department lowered its earlier estimate of tepid growth for the April-June quarter, while the Labor Department said the economy added 386,000 more jobs from April 2011 through March 2012 than previously believed.

Romney compared the American economy to that of Russia as he ignored signs of growth and pounced on the Commerce Department's downward revision.

"By the way, Russia's GDP growth is at 4 percent. And we're at 1.3. This is unacceptable," he said. "The president does not understand how to get this economy to work for the American people."

HBT: Phils, D-backs could be eliminated tonight

Just checking in with our friend Bob Timmermann?s MLB Death Watch:

Both the Philadelphia Phillies and the Arizona Diamondbacks can be mathematically eliminated from playoff contention if the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Washington Nationals at home on Friday night.

Alternatively, both teams can be eliminated if they lose their own games.

We don?t note all teams? eliminations like this, but given the way our comments section skews around here, I figure this would be as good a place as any to set up Mourning Central for Phillies fans. ?HBT is your safe harbor at the end of this stormy season, Phillies Pholks. Come, cry on each others shoulders here. ?I shall bring you tissues and warm drinks to soothe your weary, heavy hearts.

2 arrested in art heist at Calif. financier's home

SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) ? Two suspects were arrested and found with about $10 million worth of art stolen from the home of a Southern California financier, Santa Monica police said Thursday.

The theft of the paintings made waves in both the art world and on Wall Street, where the victim, star bond trader Jeffrey Gundlach, does business. They were the priciest part of the major burglary where the thieves also took expensive watches, wine and a Porsche Carrera 4S, which were not recovered.

"The focus was on recovering the artwork, and it was all recovered," Gundlach told the Los Angeles Times. "The thieves had worked on moving the property, but we were able to get a good lead and apprehend them. It's a great day for the art world."

Most of the paintings were found when authorities, working on a tip from local police, served a search warrant on a car stereo store in Pasadena, Sgt. Richard Lewis said in a statement.

The store's manager, Jay Jeffrey Nieto, 45, was arrested Wednesday.

The investigation then led to a home in nearby San Gabriel, where police arrested Wilmer Cadiz, 40, and found him in possession of four more paintings.

One final painting was found at a home in Glendale, and police said the person found with it is cooperating in their investigation.

There is no known connection at this time between the victim and the suspected thieves, Lewis said. It was unknown whether the men had lawyers, he said.

Of the still-missing Porsche, Gundlach told the Times, "Maybe whoever has it will drive to a Ralphs Parking Lot and just drop it off and end this."

Gundlach returned home from a business trip Sept. 14 to find that more than a dozen paintings by the likes of Piet Mondrian and Jasper Johns, worth some $10 million, were missing.

He had offered a $1.7 million reward for the art's return, and $1 million for just the return of the collection's biggest prize, Mondrian's "Composition (A) En Rouge Et Blanc." It was not clear if anyone would be eligible to claim the reward.

Both suspects are due in court Friday.

Lehman to pay creditors another $10.5 billion

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc on Tuesday said it will pay about $10.5 billion to creditors starting early next month, the second leg of a plan to eventually pay out more than $65 billion.

Lehman will distribute the money to affiliates and subsidiaries, as well as to third-party creditors, according to a filing in Manhattan bankruptcy court.

Creditors have already received about $22.5 billion under the first leg of the payout plan, unveiled in April. The additional $10.5 billion will bring total payback to around $33 billion.

While that is about half the total they are estimated to receive, it's a far cry from full payback on the more than $300 billion in claims leveled by creditors against the defunct financial giant.

Lehman's collapse on September 15, 2008 helped spur the global financial crisis. Creditors waited 3-1/2 years for payback as Lehman trudged through a messy liquidation, fighting with bondholders and creditors like Goldman Sachs Group Inc for control of the terms of a payback plan.

In June 2011, Lehman proposed a plan it touted as a "global compromise," estimating about $65 billion in total payback and giving many creditors recoveries of between 20 and 30 cents on the dollar. Creditors of Lehman's parent are projected to recover about 21 cents on the dollar, while derivatives creditors, like Goldman, will get about 28 cents.

Actual totals depend on Lehman's success in marketing and monetizing its real estate and other assets, which could be affected by changes in markets.

A spokeswoman for Lehman could not immediately be reached.

Lehman said in a statement on Tuesday it anticipates making a third distribution around March 30.

The case is In re Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York, No. 08-13555.

Libya leader to NBC: Film not behind consulate attack

In an exclusive interview with NBC News' Ann Curry, Libyan President Mohamed Magarief says he has "no doubt" the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi was pre-planned.

?

By NBC News staff

Updated at 4:01 a.m. ET: An anti-Islam film that sparked violent protests in many countries had?"nothing to do with" a?deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi earlier this month, Libya's president told NBC News.

In an exclusive interview with NBC News'?Ann Curry, President Mohamed Magarief discounted claims that the attack was in response to a movie produced in California and available on YouTube. He noted that the assault happened on Sept. 11 and that the video had been available for months before that.

"Reaction should have been, if it was genuine, should have been six months earlier. So it was postponed until the 11th of September," he said. "They chose this date, 11th of September to carry a certain message."

NYT: Deadly Libya attack a major blow to CIA efforts

Magarief said there were no protesters at the site before the attack, which he noted came in two assaults, first with rocket-propelled grenades on the consulate, then with mortars at a safe house.

Protests ignited by a controversial film that ridicules Islam's Prophet Muhammad spread throughout Muslim world.

The attack took the lives of Ambassador Chris Stevens, as well as information management officer Sean Smith and security personnel Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty.

US Ambassador Chris Stevens was 'courageous,' Obama says

Magarief told Curry that based on the accuracy of the assault, he believes the attackers must have had training and experience using the weapons.

"It's a pre-planned act of terrorism," he said, adding that the anti-Islam film had "nothing to do with this attack."

'A strong friend'
Magarief said that while Libyans appeared to be behind the attack that "these Libyans do not represent the Libyan people or Libyan population in any sense of the word."

Hilary Stevens, sister of Christopher Stevens, the U.S. Ambassador to Libya who died Tuesday during an attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi. In an interview with Rock Center Anchor Brian Williams, Stevens reflects on her brother's legacy and work.

He added: "We consider the United States as a friend, not only a friend, a strong friend, who stood with us in our moment of need."

More than 40 people have been questioned in connection with the incident,?the Libyan leader?told Curry.

He described Stevens as a "humble and very unique human being" and a "great friend of Libya."

Thousands of Libyans stormed the headquarters of an Islamist militia group in Benghazi Friday night in a deadly exchange. NBC's Ayman Mohyeldin reports.

Backlash: Protesting Libyans storm militant compound

The Obama administration initially maintained that the attacks were directly linked to protests over the film. Speaking on NBC?s ?Meet the Press? on Sept. 16, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice said: ?What happened in Benghazi was in fact initially a spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired hours before in Cairo, almost a copycat of the demonstrations against our facility in Cairo, prompted by the video.?

However, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney last week said it was "self-evident that what happened in Benghazi was a terrorist attack."

Slain ambassador's mom: 'He was trying to do something much bigger'

Speaking before the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, President Barack Obama said: ?There are no words that excuse the killing of innocent? people.

On Tuesday, President Obama spoke to the United Nations general assembly in an emotional speech about the recent violence against Americans. NBC's Chuck Todd reports.
