According to published reports, Whitaker's publicist says the actor was leaving the Milano Market at 2892 Broadway on Friday when an employee stopped him, claiming he stole something.
Reports say the worker patted down the 51-year-old actor, found nothing and let him go.
Whitaker's publicist says the actor was upset by the incident but did not call police because the worker was afraid of losing his job.
Whitaker is in town shooting a movie.
He won a Best Actor Oscar for playing Ugandan dictator Idi Amin in "The Last King Of Scotland" in 2006.

Interim coach Scott Johnson is having no truck with those who have already written off Scotland ahead of the RBS 6 Nations.
Scotland face England in their RBS 6 Nations opener at Twickenham next month.
Under former boss Andy Robinson, Scotland ended up with the wooden spoon in the competition last year and the Englishman quit after losing three November internationals, all at home, to New Zealand, South Africa and Tonga.
Consequently, few outside Murrayfield believe the Scots have much chance ahead of the trip down south for the February 2 meeting with the auld enemy.
Johnson, former attack coach under Robinson, today named 10 uncapped players in his 35-man squad for the training camp that will take place in Glasgow next week.
The Australian, 50, had his tongue firmly in his cheek when asked about the low expectations placed on his new charges.
"We are going to turn up," he said.
"We have decided we are not cancelling the fixture. I want it noted for the record that we will not cancel this fixture.
"Everyone is making it sound like we shouldn't turn up. Well, trust me, we intend to turn up and we will turn up wanting to play pretty good rugby, that's our intention.
"It is a terrific game, isn't it? It is a hard place to go and win.
"We are up against big brother and that's not a bad thing and I think we can go and spoil the party.
"If we perform to our ability then it is going down to the wire."
Johnson's squad comprises 19 players from Glasgow Warriors, seven from Edinburgh and nine 'exiles'.
Warriors quintet Ryan Wilson, Chris Fusaro, Sean Kennedy, Pat MacArthur and Sean Maitland were called up to the national set-up for the first time.
Former Warriors player Johnnie Beattie, who moved to Montpellier last summer, was recalled.
Johnson, who will leave the issue of the captaincy until nearer the time of the England game, said: "I am really happy with John's form in France.
"It's not an easy thing to do, to go to a non-English speaking place and perform as well as he has done. He has done himself proud.
"I have seen plenty of players go over there and fail but he has done nothing but succeed so he will add a bit of variety and that's good, we need that."
The former Wales interim coach insists "form and future" were the main criteria used when picking his squad.
He said: "We sat down with one eye on the World Cup and one eye on now.
"This squad reflects that. We get 10 days to prepare so there won't be massive changes.
"The message is, let's focus on ourselves and do the things we do and do them well.
"Success will be being competitive in every game. We are not in the position where we can have high targets right now.
"We are going in the direction of the 2015 World Cup and we are having a look now.
"But we want to be competitive, we don't want to fall off in games. If we are still in the game at the 60-minute mark it can go any way.
"The reality is that if we start focusing on the finishing line without the process being in place, we will never get where we want to go and I am all about trying to get to somewhere and having the right process in place.
"This team needs to understand what it needs to do well and keep working hard and if they do that, trust me, we will get a competitive rugby team and if you are competitive all the time you will win more than you lose."

There is a new Souleye album (the one from VVVVVV).
Unbelievably awesome.

OK, two more because she was so awesome posting just the two would be silly. For what it's worth, there is not a single person in current pop music that has anything like what she had. Beyonce is a pale imitation. Sasha Fierce, indeed.

This has just made me realise there is a large Etta James shaped hole in my record collection. Of course there are many obvious holes in my record collection but listening to these reminds me that it's one that most definitely should be filled.
Her version of I Just Want to Make Love to You is of course absolutely brilliant, particularly her delivery of the opening line.
With Etta James I basically heard a few songs, fell in love, and listened to every single thing I could find. There are plenty of amazing singers from that time but she is at the very top of my list. Ella Fitzgerald and Irma Thomas run her close, though.
Any recommendations for albums to start with, or which are the best compilation albums (because if I am buying to fill a gap I often resort to greatest hits, largely because I'd run out of money way too fast otherwise!)?
Yeah I think for artists from that era, compilations are the way to go because singles dominated and you might as well get a collection of the best ones. The Very Best Of Etta James: The Chess Singles is a great deal, stupid amount of songs for cheap.
Recommending albums is a bit harder because she sang so many styles it comes down to your taste. I'd go for At Last! and Tell Mama along with the live album Rocks The House if you want to ruin your tolerance for any other singers live shows.
Then if you want even more get Etta James: Who's Blue? Rare Chess Recordings Of The 60s and 70s for all the awesome b-sides and rare tracks.
Also, I hear you about money. There's just too much sometimes. That compilation would be ideal I'd say, plus Rocks The House because it will 100% guaranteed put a huge smile on your face.
Right now I listen to the lonely island album. yes some of the songs are quite funny, but on the other hand I did not need to listen to a full album of them.

Got the Chess singles collection, so much great music! Will look into the live album as well.

Bill Jensen's Paintings Are Totemic Abstractions
Bill Jensen's paintings are overpowering. They don't apologise. They're powerful abstractions, often signified by unconventional compositions and a profound sense of colour, his surfaces saturated and densely worked, primordial, totemic, borne out of the unconscious.
It has been said that Jensen has spent his artistic life swimming against the tide of what the public expect of a painter and in that sense he is a painters painter, there is no sense of style, no care for the industry, the market, the profit. No, Jensen seems oblivious to it all, he is determined to follow his own path, his own calling; to create a painting that captures the moment when his artist's impulse converges with his material's properties, a clarity that may never happen, may take years. Either way Jensen's paintings reflect that search and he has been doing so for over 50 years.
When it comes down to it Jensen is an old school painter, it is about the craft – he makes his own paints and tools – and the process. After all without process there is no result.

Phillies receive poor grades from Sports Illustrated
Those of us with far less optmistic worldviews had our fears confirmed when Sports Illustrated released the team's off-season report card.
Phillies receive poor grades from Sports Illustrated
Justin Klugh, Assistant Sports Producer
Some people have convinced themselves that Chase Utley, Ryan Howard, and Roy Halladay will bounce back and have healthy, productive years; that Michael and Delmon Young will provide cheap, adequate power in the middle of the order; that somehow, through a combination of willful ignorance and changing the channel, the Phillies' defense will work itself out.
Those of us with far less optmistic worldviews had our fears confirmed when Sports Illustrated released the team's off-season report card and saw a big red "D."
"Though the trade for Revere gives the Phillies a cost-controlled centerfielder to grow on, they've taken steps backward with most of their other moves," the article states. "[The Phillies] are more likely to repeat last year's middling showing than contend in a division where the Nationals and Braves have upgraded in impressive fashion."
Sure, this was just one media outlet's opinion. But by using "information" and "facts" to back their arguments, SI painted an inarguably hideous picture of Amaro's winter tinkering.
On Delmon Young: "The money is inconsequential enough, but it looks like an overpay for a player who hit .267/.296/.411 with 18 homers last year with a −0.9 Wins Above Replacement Player mark even while being limited to just 31 games in the field, all of them in left."
On Michael Young: "He'll take over third base in place of Polanco, who to be fair is a year older and about half as durable, but at least able to do something besides imitate a matador at the hot corner."
On Ben Revere: "Amaro did actually acquire some youth in the form of speedy 24-year-old center fielder Ben Revere, who stole 40 bases last year but hit a thin .294/.333/.342 with just 19 extra-base hits..."
Grim stuff.
Perhaps there are others in the media who took a more sympathetic angle, or were at least not paying as much attention.
"[The Phillies' defense] Could be comically bad. Howard? Michael Young? Delmon? Domonic Brown? My lord." [David Schoenfield, ESPN]
"I get why the Phillies think they can still compete. I don't get why they're punting half of their defense and adding more offensive question marks to a growing pile." [Grant Brisbee, Baseball Nation]
"Amaro might have been wise to pass up on overpaying for an outfielder, but unless Young bounces back into the player who led the American League in hits and finished eighth in MVP voting in 2011, a sizable hole remains in the middle of the lineup." [Ryan Lawrence, The Daily News]
"It has been a different kind of offseason for the Phillies, and it's impossible to say that they caught the Nationals and Braves based on where the teams finished last season and what they've done this offseason." [Bob Brookover, Inquirer]
"On paper, it seems the Phillies will once again be unable to contend with the two teams they finished behind in the standings last season. While the Braves and Nationals got better, it's hard to argue that the Phils did the same." [Phillies Nation]
At least one man has both faith in the Phillies and the means to share his opinion with a large audience.
"I better not say a whole lot about it, but at the same time I know Ruben is really working hard and trying to improve our ballclub, and anything that goes down I think will help us." [Charlie Manuel]
Of course, that was back around Christmas. According to Sports Illustrated, the Phillies' GPA has taken a few hits since then.

The answer alone begs the question, who is this moron working for? Certainly not the interests of fans who want to win.....who is then, Tony Soprano:-) daystrum- daystrum
"Many silly Phils fans rejoin their compatriots in Cleveland, Houston, Miami, and Kansas City and practice denial ...." warbiscuit- mentzertopps
I like the Phillies, I don't hate the Philles. Ruben is the GM, Charlie is the manager, they're Phillies today. I guess that's where I differ with some of you guys. CallisonTaylorRojas- Pete60

Amaro had no budget to work with this year? When they unloaded Pence and Vic, they said it was to "position themselves" for this season (to free up money to make moves). What did we get? An injured, malingering right fielder who is apparently going to be handed a job when he returns from his Danny Tartabull vacation.
And stop minimizing the negative aspect of the Qualls deal. Sure, he was acquired as a bullpen fill-in, but he was personally responsible for blowing many games last season, enough losses to have made a difference at the season's end. jman
B- (Revere; in relation to the $$ spent; needs to bat lower in order)
C (Lee; D- for trading him and an B for resigning)
C- Lannan
D- Durbin
D Qualls
C (Mike Adams - too much $$ for a guy who doesn't pitch much)
C (Papelbon)

F (Ryan Howard extension)

Not sure what that works out to total but it's probably around a C-. Sam Crow

What Is It?
Gout is a disorder characterized by too much uric acid in the blood and tissues. In gout, crystals of uric acid are deposited in the joints, where they cause a type of arthritis called gouty arthritis. They also can be deposited in the kidneys, where they can cause kidney stones.
There are three main causes of the high levels of uric acid that lead to gout:
Obesity or sudden weight gain can cause high uric acid levels because the body's tissues break down more purines.
In some people, gout is caused by a combination of these factors. People with a family history of gout are more likely to develop the condition.
About 90% of patients with gout are men older than 40. Gout is quite rare in younger women and typically occurs in women many years after menopause.
The first attack of gouty arthritis usually involves only one joint, most commonly the big toe. However, it sometimes affects other joints, such as a knee, ankle, wrist, foot or finger. In gouty arthritis, the joint can become red, swollen and extremely tender to the touch. Typically, even a bed sheet brushing against the joint will trigger intense pain. After the first attack of gout, later episodes are more likely to involve several joints. Sometimes, if gout lasts for many years, uric acid crystals can collect in the joints or tendons, under the skin, or on the outside the ears, forming a whitish deposit called a tophus.
Your doctor will ask you about your medications, diet, alcohol use and about any family history of gout. Your doctor will examine you, and he or she will look at your painful joints and search your skin for tophi.
Your doctor may use a sterile needle to remove a sample of fluid from your inflamed joint. This joint fluid will be examined in a laboratory for microscopic uric acid crystals, which confirm the diagnosis of gouty arthritis. Your doctor also may order blood tests to measure the level of uric acid in your blood. Depending on your history and symptoms, you may need additional blood tests and urine tests to check how well your kidneys are working.
Expected Duration
Without treatment, the pain of gouty arthritis usually lasts for several days, but it is most intense during the first 24 to 36 hours. The interval between attacks varies a lot. Some people have them every few weeks, while others go years between attacks. After several gout attacks, a joint may take longer to improve or stay inflamed and painful.
To help prevent gout:
For most people with gout, dietary restrictions do not seem to help much, but you should avoid any foods that seem to trigger gout attacks.
To treat an attack of gouty arthritis, your doctor usually will begin by prescribing a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), such as indomethacin (Indocin), ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin and others) or naproxen (Aleve, Anaprox, Naprosyn and others). Aspirin should be avoided because it can raise the level of uric acid in your blood (although low dose aspirin for prevention of heart disease or stroke has little effect on gout). If you cannot tolerate an NSAID, or if these drugs don't work for you, your doctor may suggest a corticosteroid. Corticosteroids can be given orally or injected directly into the affected joint. Another option is an injection of a compound called adrenocorticotrophic hormone, which directs your adrenal gland to make more cortisone. A drug called colchicine sometimes is used, but it tends to cause unpleasant side effects (nausea, vomiting, cramps, diarrhea) in about 80% of people.
To prevent attacks of gout, your doctor may prescribe a medication to reduce the blood level of uric acid. Medications to lower uric acid are usually recommended when:
Allopurinol (Aloprim, Zyloprim) and febuxostat (Uloric) lower uric acid by reducing the body's production of uric acid. Febuxostat is much more expensive than allopurinol (which is available as a generic). However, for people who are allergic to allopurinol or cannot tolerate it, febuxostat might be a good alternative.
Another medication that can lower uric acid is probenecid (Benemid, Probalan). This medication lowers uric acid by increasing its removal in the urine. This medication should be avoided by people who have had kidney stones in the past and it tends to work poorly in people with kidney disease.
It may take a number of weeks for the full effect of these treatments to be reflected in the blood uric acid results.
Medications to lower uric acid levels -- allopurinol, febuxostat or probenecid -- are usually taken indefinitely. If discontinued, the uric acid level will rise again and attacks of gout are likely to resume.
When your doctor prescribes a medication to reduce uric acid in your blood, he or she also should prescribe a second medication to prevent a gout attack. That's because any change in uric acid levels, up or down, can trigger an attack. These preventive medications include a low dose of colchicine or a low dose of an NSAID. Once the uric acid is lowered enough for a prolonged period (about six months), the preventive medication can usually be stopped.
When To Call a Professional
Call your doctor whenever you have pain and swelling in a joint. If you have had gout in the past, your doctor may suggest you have NSAIDs available so you can take them at the earliest sign of an attack.
More than 50% of people who have had 1 attack of gouty arthritis will have a second, usually within 6 months to 2 years. For people with more severe disease, long-term preventive medication is highly effective at lowering uric acid, which can prevent attacks and, over months to years, cause tophi to resolve.

I need some fingers
I'll admit I'm desperate right now. I need an icon of fingers snapping. I know Forrst isn't really the place to ask something like this, but I just hope that someone in this awesome community could create or find me an icon of fingers snapping. There will be, of course, be compensation.
Icon specs:
- Vector if possible, in AI format
- Black and transparent
- Simple Fingers snapping
So yeah, I need some fingers snapping. If you make it yourself, there will be a compensation, like 10$ or something.
I don't know vector, and I'll do a terrible job if I try to do it myself (I did try). For someone who's skilled, trace a photo of fingers snapping, scan it, and vectorize it.

Foodie News: Zen Tara Tea, Ri Ra Irish Pub to Close
Restaurant news from around Montgomery County and adjacent Washington, DC, neighborhoods.
Get caught up with the food scene in Montgomery County and adjacent Washington, DC, neighborhoods with 1 Meat, 3 Sides. This week, the closure of two popular Bethesda businesses takes center plate. One meat: Bethesda tea shop Zen Tara Tea is shutting down operations later this month, citing the sluggish economy, disruptive construction nearby and the loss of nearby parking as the main reasons for closing up shop, Bethesda-Chevy Chase Patch reported. Nearby, Ri Ra, an Irish pub in downtown Bethesda, will close in early September. "The popular gathering spot, which opened 10 years ago, is not renewing its lease, confirmed bar manager Paul Corey," Bethesda Magazine reported. Three sides: The popular Korean food truck Seoul Food DC will …

I saw a video of a ripped gym junkie getting pounded by a slightly smaller guy (read: smaller than the gym junkie, but still relatively big). Not something I'd like to see nor get involved in, but still funny to see these extremely "masculine" men, get beaten on. The gym junkie was your typical bogan, skinhead, commodore.
Really? I thought this forum would have had a more open mind. What suprises me the most is that this guy hasn't been praised for not acting out and hitting the guy back and the guy who started the fight has been glorified for taking on a "gym junkie skinhead"
Yes he has Tattoos, yes he has a terrible haircut, big deal, in this situation HE was the bigger man by simply protecting himself (arms in front of the face etc and ducking and weaving the punches).
He stated in his interview that he had been in trouble with the law before and was trying to change his tune, we don't know the full story, perhaps this is true, perhaps he's on a good behaviour bond and couldn't throw a punch if he didn't want to end up in Gaol, all I know from the video footage is that he did not act violently when he was getting the crap beaten out of him. It takes a bigger man to cop the hits than to swing them. I say good on him and we should stop judging people merely on their appearance.

I'm a British journalist living and working in São Paulo, Brazil. Unless linked or credited otherwise, the photos here are mine.
In Cairo filming a documentary on women's rights in Egypt, the British journalist was subjected to a prolonged, mass sexual assault in the midst of the crowd at Tahrir Square, and narrowly escaped with her life.
She has written about here, on her blog. It's harrowing reading but essential reading, thanks to Smith's clear prose and bravery, reporting just the way a good reporter should on world events, even when they drag writers into the story – in this case, in the most horrific manner imaginable.

I'm honestly not truly enjoying Eastern. I feel like I just came here because it was my only last option at a true college experience. The campus is pretty dead on weekends because most students go home. I usually just go home on the weekends. Even though some say there are things to do over the weekends, there really isn't much to do at all.
» Read MoreThere are a lot of things to do on campus you just have to know how to find them, they have a calender on their home page with events that are going on around campus each and everyday, even on the weekends!
» Read MoreDefinitely. Close to home, good schedule. Very nice staff so far.
» Read MoreI love being at Eastern. The campus is really nice and the people are really friendly. It's easy to make friends, especially in the freshman dorms. I sat in the common room of my dorm last year and became great friends with the other girls on my floor. It was great.

Decomposing composers, or: Why WordPress starts to get on me nerves.
Sunday, May 1st, 2011Sometimes, having an easy install routine sucks ass. To wit, WordPress blinds you with "it's soooo easy!" while making it fucking complicated to simply move your fucking blog to where it's supposed to go online.
Yes, you have to change only two lines of code. Theoretically. But then, you might be working with subdomains which makes the whole thing go haywire.
Dudes, seriously. If you market with ease-of-use and lack-of-shitpants et al please make your bloody configs easier to understand if you want to go one step beyond™. I'm talking one step here, not the bloody Camino de Santiago.
You want to be easy-going? Then be simple and don't go the Apple way. Thanks, guv.

2. | Metal Gear | ||
A gigantic nuclear capable bipedal tank. Designed to be able to launch a nuke anywhere on the planet thus giving its user an great advantage in undetectable first strike capability. Often terrorist seize these powerful weapons and have to be stopped by the player (Solid Snake, Raiden, Big Boss).
Featured in the games Metal Gear (MSX, NES, Commodore 64), Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (MSX), Metal Gear Solid (PS, PC), and Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty/Substance (PS2, Xbox), Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes (GC) and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS2). "Metal Gear is nothing but nuclear equipped walking death mobile!"
-Solid Snake "Now you shall bear witness to the demon weapon that will drag the world into the 21st century!" -Liquid Snake |
1. | metal gear | ||
The best video game series of all time. That's just my opinion.
3. | metal gear | ||
1. Popular video game.
2. Used as a mocking expression (spoken in a rough manly voice) when someone repeats what another person just said as a question (Much like solid snake does in the metal gear series). Person #1
"It's called Metal Gear" Snake: "Metal Gear?" or Person #1 "Hey look, a Plane" Person #2: "A Plane?" Person #1: "Metal Gear?" |
4. | Metal Gear | ||
A bipedal tank, capable of launching nuclear missles from anywhere on the face of the planet. Its earliest incarnation was the Shagohod, a tank which, using rocket boosters and about 3 miles of runway, was designed to launch ICBMs. This was destroyed in 1964 during Operation Snake Eater. Metal Gear as we know it today surfaced in 1995 in Outer Heaven, ironically in use by the man who destroyed its earlier model, Big Boss. After being destroyed, another Metal Gear appeared in Zanzibar land. After Solid Snake destroyed it and killed his father, he retired, until 6 years later, the US government decided to build their own model, REX. Liquid Snake and the rest of FOXHOUND took control of the Shadow Moses facility until Solid Snake destroyed it. After that, various models began turning up around the world. Metal Gear! It can't be!
5. | Metal Gear | ||
A nuclear equipped walking death mobile.Origanally designed to shoot down nuclear missles.For defensive purposes of course LIAR! I already know that Metal Gear is nothing but a nuclear equipped walking death mobil!
6. | Metal Gear | ||
Term applied to bipedal tanks, designed primarily to launch ICBMs from any point on Earth, thus rendering the concept of nuclear deterance moot, as well as eliminating the need for expensive silos or nuclear subs.
Metal Gears also serve the role of assault, artillery, anti-vehicle, anti-personell, escort, theatre-missile-defence, as well as numerous other functions with their heavy armaments. The numerous models over the decades have been armed with heavy machine-guns, rockets, hellfire missles, laser systems, rail-guns, hydro-cannons, and various other conventional and unconventional weapons. In addition to carrying ICBMs, Metal Gears have been known to carry cluster-bombs, cruise missiles, and various other assault payloads in its missile tubes. The Metal Gear is a fictional weapon-system. No government has stepped forward for the nuclear attack, and no nation can be accused. NATO suspects that a Metal Gear was involved.
7. | Metal Gear | ||
A nuclear-equipped walking battle tank also equipped with state-of-the-art conventional weaponry such as missiles, heavy machine guns, and lasers. It's main selling point was its ability to launch a variety of nuclear warheads toward anywhere on Earth from any location. It had the ability to more independently and instead of using a standard nuclear launch module, it was equipped with a weapon, which allowed it to launch a nuclear weapon with no external support. Since it could operate from regions, which were up to that point not on the world's nuclear strategy map, it was a weapon that destroyed the sensitive balance of nuclear deterrence and represented an enormous threat to the entire world. You would really not want to be standing in front of Metal Gear Rex if it had a pilot who was unfriendly towards you....

As some of you already know, I am running for the Governor's Council seat in District 3 as an independent. The Governor's Council, also known as the Executive Council, of Massachusetts is a popularly-elected board which must give the governor advice and consent with respect to nominations of judicial officers, appointment and removal of notaries public and justices of the peace, and issuance of pardons and commutations.
If you didnt know this, you're not alone. Most people, even the most politically astute, dont know this. This is a huge problem. The current Governor's Council make absolutely no effort in outreach and trying to educate the "people" as to whats going on in the Governor's Council. They may talk about it with their friends, but not with the general public. This lack of communication leads to a lack of transparency, mistrust and eventually divisiveness. We're seeing it in the Governor's Council as we speak.
The Governor's Council is set up to be a "checks and balances" on the governor's recommendations. Over the years, the Governor's Council has been "rubberstamping" applicants. They have only rejected one applicant in the past two years, thats 80/81 applicants accepted, they need to do their due diligence on every candidate properly. Some positions are lifetime positions and can only be interviewed once, so the Governor's Council can't afford to make a mistake with those positions.
As an Independent, and an independent thinker, I promise to thoroughly interview and vet each judicial candidate vigorously and ask the right questions. After all, if we consent to the wrong candidates, it's likely that we would have more guilty people walking the streets and more innocent people in jail.

The council gives the Govenor advice, which he promptly ignores,,, Why don't you run for a local board to help your community. This is a waste of time. Your to be commended and admired for wanting to get into a public office, But this is all hack...

Thanks for commenting Earnhardt, but I'm not sure I follow. Can you comment with the links to the articles you've found that show the Governor ignores the advice of the Council, or that the Governor's Council doesn't have other duties that they need strong candidates for? Thanks!
10:36 am on Thursday, June 14, 2012
Let's ask this instead: name one thing the Governor's council has done to change your life. Just 0ne. See, I can't think of anything on my end. Parole recommendations? there's a joke! And how much does the job pay? Again, I have no clue so enlighten me. Wouldn't running for a local board in your town or city benefit more? wouldn't it at least make positive changes in town? Resources are best spent there. The Govenor is going to do as he wants anyways. You know it and I know it. These are great guys wanting to change things for the better, But let's face it. a new face on an outdated council is not going to change anything. Kind of like putting an extra lifeboat on the Titanic.

The Governor's Council approves judges, and judges affect the laws in this state. Our state could be different if we had had different judges and justices when issues like same-sex marriage and aspects of Massachusetts' universal health care law came in front of the judiciary. Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massachusetts_Governor's_Council) tells me that Councilors made $26,025 each in 2008. And of course local boards make changes in towns, but if Tom Sheff wanted to run for a local board, I presume he would do that instead.
You're free to start a blog on Patch, as well, just as Tom Sheff did, and outline your opposition to the Governor's Council (or write on any subject you want). Just go to your Patch home page, scroll down below the 1 big picture and 3 small ones, click "Start a Blog," then "Post on Patch" and follow the directions from there. You may find that lots of people -- maybe even me -- would agree with you once you lay out your argument with facts, figures, and alternate proposals.

Hi Earnhart,
To answer your first post about me doing work locally, go to my web site at www.tomsheff.com and I think you'll see I have an extensive resume on work I've done locally...I'm very active. What frustrates me is running for elective office in Newton is very frustrating. I ran for mayor in 2005 and my platform consists of 3 main issues: zero based budgeting, having our budget audited by a neutral 3rd party and consolidating cities and towns for lower healthcare costs. We just voted in a new Mayor 3 years ago, he started the policy of zero based budgeting , which I talked him into doing and it has saved the city of Newton over 8 million dollars in the firtst two years of his office.
My idea of an independent auditor look at our books for cost savings, due to the costs of the audit, morphed into creating a commission of financial professionals to look at out books for cost savings. Six months after the election, the Blue Ribbon Commission was a group of financial professionals to look at our books for cost savings. They came up with ideas that saved us millions anywhere from having energy audits to ideas to save money in healthcare.
I feel very strongly that the further I get from Newton, the more I can help out. The more my type of thinking is accepted. I care how our tax dollars get spent and the dems in this city dont. I feel compelled to help, due to it's how I was brought up. I hope this answers some of your concerns.
Tom Sheff
11:43 am on Thursday, June 14, 2012
Earnhardt, on your second post, in reality the wording advice and consent is misleading. The real wording should be acceptance/rejection. If the Governor's Council votes against an applicant, the Governor has no recourse to change that. The Governor must go to his second choice. Only one applicant in two years has been "rejected".

Im wondering now myself,
What is the pay for this position, its public record is it not?
What benifits come with this job? A car? travel budget? meals? perhaps 100% state paid medical? a goverment funded pension plan?
Tom Sheff
11:52 am on Thursday, June 14, 2012
MS Resident, I can only respond to pay, not sure about benefits. I'm not running for the pay or bene's but it has come up in conversation.. The pay is $26,000 per year (500/week).
The Troll of Northborough
1:25 pm on Thursday, June 14, 2012
Thanks for the answer Tom :)
I see now in another post that answers the same thing :)
it would seem its more, $500 a day, as the charter states " The Council generally meets at noon on Wednesdays in its State House Chamber, next to the Governor's Office. Pursuant to the Massachusetts Constitution"
Im sure there are times you may meet more than once a week, and other times theres no meeting. With 8 Council members meeting, that means every Wednesday it costs $4000 for just them alone.
Perhaps a bill can get introduced to allow the use of skype or cisco meeting rooms to make this morte efficent and reduce the cost. Id think $208,000 to have 8 people offer advice could really be used better else where, vs have the governor ring up a few peopel on skype if he wants a sounding board on something
Tom Sheff
2:56 pm on Thursday, June 14, 2012
Hi MS Resident,
I'd have no problem with that, but it would mean that there would have to be a change in the laws, as you suggest. My understanding is that the cost of the GC is a bit more than the $208,000, because there is staff that is attached. It's easy for me (and the other district 3 candidates) to get to the state house, but some of the GC members from other districts have to come from springfield or further. We are just 10 miles away...hop on the T even.
8:55 pm on Thursday, June 14, 2012
KAsey and Tom let me respond in this way: The Govenors council is unknown for a reason. Tom as much as you would love to change things you will not be able to. You know it, and I know it, The council recommends appointments doesn't it? So let's say you recommend someone for Notary Public, But someone with a little connection wants Lets say thier Nephew to be a notary,,, GUess what happens? You make Parole Board reccomendations on the council. That has pretty much been a disaster in the past, I can pretty much guarantee thats never going to change, Judges? Again its all politics, And KAsey I do have a blog. I use it often. So I do not need to "Create" a blog. And Kasey if you really think Tom will change the council for the better. Lets see your facts. Things would be different how exactly Kasey? Same sex marriage would have paseed no matter who was in the chair. Notary publics and parole boards would still all be a game of politics, Tom I admire you for running for public office, You are a better man than I am. But I still think your ambitions would be better served locally. You lost the mayors race? Run again. why move to run for a useless council? Step up and run again, Then your ideas and your voice will be heard!
Tom Sheff
10:28 pm on Thursday, June 14, 2012
Hi Earnhardt, I totally understand you're frustration....I share it. Matter of fact I became an independant as a statement towards my frustration.
I dont think anyone is or isn't a better man/woman due to running for office, I was just brought up that way and maybe you weren't (I dont know).
The GC is little known due to a lack of effort by the Councl to communicate to the constituents. I plan on communicating through updating my web site (www.tomsheff.com) and writing letters to local Tabs and newsletters. If a person wants to know about whats going on the info will be there and if you dont want to know you can just ignore it(I can't make people become interested).
I dont know Kasey and didnt hear him say he supports me, although I hope he does on November 6th.
As far as me running for running for local office, I've pretty much have given up on that idea. I feel underappreciated in the city and I dont feel my type of logic in finding reform and efficiencies matches the politics of my neighbors. I dont feel I can win an election in Newton and the farther away I get, the better chance I have.
Just some thoughts.
PS the recommendations, as you stated don't work that way, if interested I can go into that with you.
10:47 pm on Thursday, June 14, 2012
Well Tom, I have to admit. you make sense, and as I stated Anyone who is willing to become involved in politics and trying to make change is to be admired,how long a term would you serve if elected? Ill tell you what. Because you are willing to answer and explain yourself, You have my vote, I hope you can accomplish the goals you have in mind. Any change will be a good change, As of now, no one really knows anything about the council. Unless of course you are deep into politics. If you can accomplish even one goal, then you will not have served in vain! Good Luck!
Tom Sheff
11:14 pm on Thursday, June 14, 2012
Hi Earnhardt, Thank you very much.
As far as how long would I serve, it's 2 year terms and I have no intention to stay for over 10 years (5 terms). I dont believe public service should be a lifetime position, I am willing to make way for new ideas and new people for the good of the Council. I also believe that if I can't get done what I want to get done in 10 tears, I probably will never accomplish it.
Last thing, I understand you're frustration on the lack of change in the Council. As far as I know, no one has ever made change from the sidelines...you can only affect the game if you play and thats all I ask from the voters is to allow me to play so I can attempt to make some reforms/improvements.
Earnhardt, I hope one day we can sitdown and talk.
7:29 am on Friday, June 15, 2012
Hey Tom. look me up after you get in. I will gladly sit down with you. Meanwhile, Just do the best job you can OK?
Tom Sheff
10:11 am on Friday, June 15, 2012
Hi Earnhardt,
No problem. What you can do for me is to spread the word. Thanks.
8:34 am on Monday, June 18, 2012
The Council is the ONLY check . we the citizens have on a hack political system. Once the Governor appointee gets past this single check point its history another hack gets lifetime tenure, and with the exception of just one member of the Council its presently controlled by hacks who simply rubber stamp the Governor's appointees.
If we don't get some independent members NOW we're doomed for many years to come.

Location: Dairy Forage and Aquaculture Research
Technical Abstract: In 1990, we found an unknown grass growing on a farm in southwestern Wisconsin. We have identified this grass as meadow fescue, popular in the late 19th century and early 20th century before tall fescue was imported into the USA. The grass was established throughout the Charles Opitz farm by harvesting hay with ripe seed and feeding that hay to cattle during winter. We have verified that, once established, meadow fescue on the Opitz farm is not undergoing further sexual reproduction, so that existing plants are surviving for at least 10-15 years. This is a very winterhardy and drought tolerant grass.

About Me
From Bowling Green, OH to Peru, South America to Boston, MA I have always found the joy and fun in making music. I'm a highly trained violinist who graduated from the Boston Conservatory in December, and since then I've been actively working as a gigging musician in Boston's live music scene.
Music is my way of sharing joy and fun with the people in my community, and I feel that it's the best lifestyle I could possibly have. My students help make that community even better and stronger. Music not only gives them a healthy group to belong to but a creative space to be themselves.
I've set up a student orchestra in Tacna, Peru, played in jazz bands and combos, made music for tango dancers, and performed in countless orchestras and small ensembles. I have taught to all age groups and, after graduating with my master's degree in music performance and education, I feel that I'm ready for any teaching situation!
