Cubs end 7-game losing streak, beat D'backs
PHOENIX – For one afternoon, Cubs manager Dale Sveum could laugh about his team's travails on the basepaths.
"We're like a vitamin – one a day," Sveum said after actually watching two runners get thrown out Sunday in a 7-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks.
"You don't teach it. You don't see it. Strange stuff. It's unbelievable."

Love the style, very oversized and cute
Love these glasses, they're so chic & cute. It's a little on the heavy side for me because its well made but looks & feels very durable. Love the oversized round look and I really wanted to keep it but it's just a little too big for my slender face. I still give it 5 stars because the glasses itself is very unique and cute. It just didn't work for me personally because I wanted something slightly smaller, but I'd definitely recommend it for other fashionistas who want to make a statement with their glasses. Definitely not for the conservative dresser, but for trendy, edgy people who love the retro look. This'll work great for people with larger faces, it has a way of making your face look tiny.

Maine's highest court heard arguments on Wednesday on whether suspected johns in the Kennebunk prostitution case who were recorded without their knowledge have a right to privacy.
A trial judge dismissed 46 invasion of privacy counts against Mark Strong Sr., who is accused of viewing sex videos featuring men who were unaware that they were being recorded with a woman, Alexis Wright, who's accused of using her former Zumba studio as a front for prostitution.
Prosecutors are seeking to reinstate the charges.
The prosecution argued that anyone who takes their clothes off in an intimate setting, regardless of whether they pay for it, has a reasonable right to privacy.
Strong was not in court Wednesday, but his attorney, Dan Lilley, said the right to privacy does not apply to someone committing a crime.
In his first argument before the justices, Prosecutor Patrick Gordon said the suspected johns did have the right to expect privacy.
"Like bathrooms, like changing rooms, places people are often disrobed, no one would argue for a minute that the person didn't expect privacy there, so why would it be any different if money changed hands?" Gordon said.
But Lilley argued the men were engaging in a crime -- prostitution -- and therefore have no expectation of privacy.
"I think you've all asked my questions, and that is reasonableness on the expectation of privacy, on the expectation that is paying a prostitute for sex," Lilley said.
Wright's attorney, Sarah Churchill, also filed a brief Wednesday that supported Lilley's argument.

December Happenings
♫ Monday, December 13th, 2010I'm the type that likes to be busy so this December's wild and wooly pace really suits me just fine. We are 2/3 of the way through the Celtic Trio's Christmas tour. This is my second year participating in this ensemble with longtime American/Irish Contemporary Celtic duo Jeff Johnson & Brian Dunning. So far we've been to the San Juan Islands, Seattle, Eugene, Corvallis, Albany and Portland playing to a lot of full houses. Check the schedule at Ark Music for remaining dates!
Our new CD Under the Wonder Sky was recently chosen by John Diliberto, host of NPR's Echoes program as the CD of the month for December. Our interview airs December 14th. You can listen online and read the online review by clicking here.
When I return from tour, I'll be presenting two concerts of my own—the 7th annual Acoustic Christmas Concerts with Wendy Goodwin & Friends. Joining me this year is a wonderful and eclectic cast of musicians including Violinist Alexandra Kazmierowicz, Cellist Ashley Peck, Bassist Nolan Staples, Mandolin Virtuoso Jacob Jolliff (home on Christmas break from a national tour with Joy Kills Sorrow), Guitarist Nate Macy, Pianist Bryan Clark, Percussionist Bill Nippoldt and vocalist Bethany Cibolski. That's a total of nine people including myself: woooooo—hooooo!
Tuesday, December 21st
Cloud Seven Cafe (NW 10th & Johnson—Pearl District, Portland)
Concert is Free. Desserts, espresso drinks and local wines available for purchase.
Wednesday, December 22nd
West Chehalem Friends Church (16700 NE North Valley Road, Newberg) MAP
Concert is Free—family friendly and all are welcome.
I'm still teaching my private students too whenever I land for a moment back in town. I have a few little ones who are on the verge of completing Suzuki Book 1… I keep telling them "before the sun sets on December 31st you WILL complete Gavotte!" It's fun having concrete goals to shoot for. I am so proud of my kiddos.
Last night I was able to join vocalist Tasha Miller for a private party as a part of her "Educated Band." It was a real privilege to share the stage—er the fireside room—with pianist Kerry McCoy, Bassist Kevin Dietz and Guitarist Dan Balmer. Tasha knows how to entertain… decked in a red taffeta party dress and standing in 5 inch heels the lady had the room captivated with sassy renditions of Santa Baby, gospel infused Silent Night and some folk and jazz standards.
It would be easy to get a little crazy with all of this coming and going, different music to prepare and all, but I just keep reminding myself to just enjoy every new experience and not to take myself too seriously!
How is your Holiday season shaping up?

Jim Ingraham: Browns' win changes everyone's outlook
They didn't just beat Coach Einstein's New England Patriots. They dictated the terms of the capitulation: a complete and total unconditional surrender — the backup quarterback taking a knee at their own 1-yard line as time ran out.
No mas. Start the bus. Let's get out of here!
Browns 34, Patriots 14.
Belichick Belichumped.
This changes everything. This changes what you've thought of the Browns to this point of the season. This changes what you think of the Browns now. This changes what might be possible for the remainder of this Browns season.
"This," said Coach Eric Mangini, "is how I envisioned Browns football."
Mangini was so happy after Sunday's New England slam powdering that he actually — get this — smiled. A lot.
Mangini was downright Mangiddy after his team smash-mouthed its way to the signature win of his turbulent tenure as Browns coach — arguably their most impressive win since the Browns returned to the NFL — with about as thorough a dismantling and beatdown of an opponent as NFL rules will allow.
The win over the Saints two weeks ago was done with smoke and mirrors, and a touch of special teams voodoo gumbo.
Not this one. Continued...
The Browns won this one by punching the Patriots in the nose, elbowing them in the gut and Peytoning them in the Hillis.
When the Patriots got up off the ground, the Browns knocked them down again. And again. And again. For four bruising quarters.
"It was," said Patriots coach Bill Belichick, "just a total victory by Cleveland in all phases of the game, everything you can measure."
Don't look now, but Browns football is fun again.
In the last two games, they've developed swagger, attitude and, most important of all, victories.
Running a three-game gauntlet of opponents and venues perhaps unmatched by any Browns rookie quarterback ever in his first three games in the league, Colt "The Jolt" McCoy is 2-1 against three teams — the Steelers, Saints and Patriots — who combined have won six of the last nine Super Bowls.
Chops? He's got a few.
McCoy is now 2-1 lifetime vs. Ben Roethlisberger, Drew Brees and Tom Brady. Sunday, he actually out-Bradyed Brady ("He's still the real No. 12," said the rookie).
McCoy completed all but five of his 19 pass attempts. He had a 16-yard scramble for a touchdown. No interceptions. No fumbles. No broken plays. Quarterback rating: 101.6.
"I like the way he managed the game," said Mangini. "For the most part, he made really good decisions and he managed the team really well. He just hasn't been fazed." Continued...
McCoy's touchdown run came at the end of a masterful 10-play, 72-yard, 7-minute drive in the Browns' first possession of the second half, a possession that seemed to indicate to Belichick and the Patriots that they were going to need a bigger boat. Sixty-nine of the 72 yards on that touchdown drive came on passes or runs by McCoy and 250-pound sand blaster Peyton Hillis.
With the exception of one trick play that went for a touchdown on an 11-yard misdirection run by a camouflaged Chansi Stuckey — I believe the Marx Brothers scored on that very same play, Chico hitting paydirt, in the movie "Horsefeathers" — the Browns went mostly with their anvil offense, featuring the indefatigable Hillis doing his impression of a runaway truck.
That allowed the Browns to control the ball for most of the game, including the first quarter, in which the Browns outgained the Patriots, 132 yards to 21. Brady was less a factor in the game than former Conehead Zoltan Mesko, who now — who knew? — punts for the Pats.
The Browns' swarming defense held New England to 68 yards rushing, only 14 by BenJarvus Green-Ellis, who at the very least should have caused New England to be penalized for too many names on the field.
When the dust and the debris had settled, the stat sheet, and your eyeballs, suggest the Browns are a team that has perhaps turned the competitive corner. Their running game was unstoppable. Their defense smothered New England's running game. They are making big plays on both sides of the ball. The play-calling the last three games has suddenly become much more creative. The Browns' rookie quarterback continues to play like a veteran.
Given all that, the remainder of this Browns season has suddenly become more interesting — dare we say "tantalizing?" — than we originally thought.
"At this point in our season, we don't care who we play," said Josh Cribbs. "I just feel like we're so reckless right now, with the way we're going out there and playing, we're leaving it all on the table.''
While kicking opponents under it.

OverviewAlthough Jumpluff both deals and takes hits about as well as a cotton ball, it manages to retain its role as one of the premier annoyers of the tier due to its excellent support movepool and almost unrivaled Speed stat. If it manages to switch into play safely, it will find itself in a good position against a number of opponents, being able to use Sleep Powder, Encore, or Stun Spore to disable them, or set up a Substitute and abuse Leech Seed if the opponent switches out. In most cases, Jumpluff will be able to move before the opponent and will thus be able to steal the opponent's momentum with its plethora of supporting moves. Furthermore, Jumpluff's access to the Chlorophyll ability means that in sun, it outspeeds every single Pokemon, including many with a +2 boost. With proper team support, it can hence interrupt even Choice Scarf and Rock Polish users before they have a chance to attack. Overall, these aspects allow Jumpluff to be an excellent disruptor, getting in the way of the opponent's plans with ease, and giving your team the momentum it needs to seize an advantage. Don't expect it to take damage nor deal it out; if all you ask of Jumpluff is to get in the opponent's way, you should be more than pleased with it.
The standard fluffball aims to switch into opponents on a Ground-type attack or after a teammate has been killed and proceed to disable, annoy, and harass them as much as possible. Against Pokemon that don't pose much of a threat, such as Wartortle and Alomomola, Jumpluff can set up a Substitute to block status and resisted Scalds, and then use Leech Seed to recover HP more quickly than the opponent can deplete it, eventually stalling them out or forcing them to switch out. The ability to stall out field effects such as Rain Dance, Reflect, and Light Screen with little effort can also be useful. Leech Seed is used primarily for healing residual damage taken from Stealth Rock and any attacks that get past Substitute while slowly whittling down enemies over time. As for more immediately threatening opponents, such as non-Choice Scarf Sawk and Rotom-S, Sleep Powder has a good chance of shutting them down, letting you switch in a Pokemon that can set up on them. If you expect the opponent to switch out as soon as Jumpluff enters the battlefield, Jumpluff should fire off a Sleep Powder immediately, for a 75% chance of disabling their best response to Jumpluff for the rest the game. Encore completes the set by allowing Jumpluff to set up against a greater variety of opponents; if it comes in on an Skuntank using Sucker Punch, a well-timed Encore ensures that Skuntank won't be able to touch Jumpluff until it's set up a Substitute, Leech Seed, and possibly Sleep Powder as well. Encore also allows Jumpluff to set up more easily on offensive Pokemon that use Earthquake and Superpower, such as Golem and Braviary, and lets Jumpluff deal with the users of moves such as Stealth Rock, Rapid Spin, and Heal Bell, preventing them from achieving anything useful until they switch out or run out of PP. Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
When the sun shines, Jumpluff becomes the fastest Pokemon in the tier bar none, and its numerous support options let it make great use of this ludicrous Speed. Because of its ability to outspeed most opponents, its decent bulk, and its array of disruptive moves, Jumpluff finds plenty of opportunities to set up Sunny Day, whether midway throughout the match or in the lead position, making it a reliable choice as a sun supporter. What sets Jumpluff apart from most of its counterparts is its access to rare and useful support moves. Sleep Powder is a staple on any Jumpluff set, allowing it to remove threats to the rest of the team with ease. For instance, instead of a check to it, a sleeping Altaria is setup fodder for Shiftry. Encore remains useful on this set as it allows Jumpluff to disrupt opponents in situations where using Sunny Day would give the opponent an opportunity to kill Jumpluff. Furthermore, under sunlight, Jumpluff can Encore opponents such as Altaria and Fraxure into Dragon Dance even after they've accrued multiple boosts, letting its teammates kill them before they can strike back. Memento is one of the best options for the final moveslot, as it allows Jumpluff to exit combat immediately after using Sunny Day. You can then switch in a sweeper with no risk of having it KOed by an incoming attack; it can proceed to make the most of the remaining six turns of sunlight. Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Yes, you read that correctly. Although Jumpluff's base 55 Attack stat might seem beyond help, Jumpluff has many traits that make it a good endgame sweeper regardless, and it has the potential to sweep any offensive team that gives it the opportunity to set up. One important aspect that aids Jumpluff as a sweeper is its base 110 Speed, as only Swellow and Choice Scarf users can land a hit on Jumpluff before it can retaliate. If your team can provide it with Sunny Day support, even these become shaky checks as they are forced to take a hit before striking back. Secondly, Jumpluff can force a lot of switches by bluffing the traditional support set and threatening to SubSeed, and it can use Sleep Powder to incapacitate potential checks even after its cover has been blown. Finally, while it sorely lacks raw strength, the combination of Flying Gem and STAB Acrobatics provides even the fluffball Jumpluff with the power to OHKO bulky opponents after a Swords Dance boost. Meanwhile, Seed Bomb provides an extra STAB attack and good neutral coverage within the tier, whilst also hitting popular physically defensive opponents such as Golem and Regirock super effectively. All in all, Jumpluff is able to threaten a sweep after a Swords Dance boost despite its relatively low power, as it excels in many other aspects of a good sweeper, such as unpredictability, the ability to remove checks in advance, and good coverage. Regardless of what your opponent might say behind a stifled laugh, Jumpluff can decimate an offensive team that isn't prepared for it, and can overwhelm its enemies with sheer awesomeness. Team Options & Additional Comments >>>Other OptionsJumpluff has many other useful support moves, but it lacks the space to run many of them alongside its other moves. Aromatherapy is useful on any set to remove status from teammates, but it can conflict with Jumpluff's purpose of disrupting the opponent. Synthesis provides Jumpluff with a reliable recovery option, especially in sunlight, but the listed moves are generally more useful. Cotton Guard and Amnesia are interesting stat boosting options that can make Jumpluff's Substitutes unbreakable, but despite Jumpluff's excellent Speed stat, it is setup fodder for other boosting opponents while using these moves, and phazers thwart this strategy too. Stun Spore can be used alongside Sleep Powder for a double powder strategy, and can be very useful when combined with Encore to disrupt the opponent in a different way. Jumpluff can use Toxic to bolster its ability to actually stall opponents out with Substitute and Leech Seed instead of just annoying them, but it's generally a better idea to use a setter of Toxic Spikes, as all Jumpluff's moveslots are valuable to it. Worry Seed can be used to remove abilities such as Sturdy and Guts, which can be very useful when you're trying to take down the last Pokemon on your opponent's team, such as a Toxic Orb Swellow or a Calm Mind Duosion, but it conflicts with Sleep Powder and does not help Jumpluff fill its role as a disruptor in the majority of situations. Finally, if you're desperate for Jumpluff to deal some damage, Giga Drain can deal with opponents such as Seismitoad and Golem, whilst Hidden Power Flying hits Grass-types that attempt to switch into Leech Seed without the repercussions of Bounce or Acrobatics. The Infiltrator ability is beyond useless, as Light Screen and Reflect very rarely conflict with Jumpluff's aims, and it excels at stalling these moves out anyway. Checks and CountersOffensive Pokemon will struggle to outmaneuver Jumpluff a lot of the time, but there are ways of dealing with it decisively and effectively. Taunt completely shuts support Jumpluff down, but most of its users will be outsped by Jumpluff. All Grass-type Pokemon can switch into Leech Seed with impunity and thwart Jumpluff's attempts at stalling out opponents. Serperior is a particularly good counter as it outspeeds Jumpluff naturally, can use Taunt to prevent Jumpluff from doing anything, and can proceed to set up Calm Mind or Coil with impunity. Likewise, Pokemon with the Vital Spirit ability, such as Electabuzz and Magmar, in addition to Sap Sipper Miltank, Zebstrika, and Sawsbuck, can switch into Sleep Powder with no repercussions and force Jumpluff out with their powerful attacks. Sleep Talk users also don't mind being put to sleep, and can switch into Sleep Powder preemptively to let other teammates deal with Jumpluff more effectively. Choice Scarf users such as Rotom-S, as well as Swellow, can outspeed Jumpluff and force it to retreat, while possibly stealing momentum of their own with Volt Switch and U-turn. While the Swords Dance set admittedly deals with the Grass-type Pokemon that block the SubSeed set with ease, Probopass and Bastiodon aren't bothered at all by its attacks, and can set up on Jumpluff with impunity if it's already used Sleep Powder on another opponent. In general, any physically bulky Pokemon that resists Acrobatics and isn't decimated by Seed Bomb makes a good check to this particular set. |

I routinely have people ask about the photos I put on our blog. What camera? What tricks I use? What software automatically gives the color, depth, pizzazz and "pop"? (automatically? I wish)
As I was writing this, Abby got a bloody nose out of the blue.
Not sure what that means medically yet, probably low platelets.
But it's a good example of how to turn any scene into a fun
pic. She had the toilet paper in her nose to stop the bleeding, so
of course, Dad had to have some too. I hollered for Mom to
grab that camera, and a few minutes later - presto - pic for the blog.
While some of it is professional equipment, software and years of image editing experience, there are a LOT of great tricks/techniques and free software I could show you.
There are a set of basic of guidelines, easy techniques, cheap-to-free software and simple demonstrations that I can teach anyone, no matter what your experience, or what camera you have (from a decent pocket digital to a professional camera). You can learn to create the same quality images I have on my sites or in the magazine (http://www.seriouslifemagazine.com/).
Would you be interested in a FREE ebook or demonstration on this?
I need to gauge the interest level (I don't want to spend time on something nobody wants). If YES, you are interested, leave your email on the form below, and I'll shoot you a quick reply if I have questions, need to clarify something, or to let you know when it is ready (again, it will be a FREE item; just wanted you to know that so you don't think you are signing up to buy something).
By the way, we NEVER share your email with anyone, EVER. Period.

Ingredients by
Pasta Vialli
This recipe is my adaptation of one I ate in the famous San Lorenzo Italian restaurant in Knightsbridge, which is apparently a favourite with the Chelsea Football Club players. This particular dish was named after their former Italian manager Gianluca Vialli. Vegetarians might like to know that a vegetarian parmesan-style cheese is available from www.bookhamcheese.co.uk
Serves 2-3
Ingredients |
12 oz (350 g) penne rigate |
1 quantity Classic Fresh Tomato Sauce |
5 oz (150 g) Mozzarella, chopped into ¾ inch (2 cm) cubes |
a little finely grated Parmesan (Parmigiano Reggiano), to serve (see recipe introduction) |
a few whole basil leaves, to garnish |

Equipment |
There is no list of equipment specified for this recipe. |
This recipe is taken from How to Cook Book One.
Start this by gently re-heating the tomato sauce and putting the pasta on to cook. When you are almost ready to eat, stir the cubes of Mozzarella into the warm sauce and let it simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, by which time the cheese will have softened and begun to melt but still retain its identity.
Serve the sauce spooned over the drained pasta, sprinkle with the Parmesan and add a few fresh basil leaves as a garnish.

4. | sticker shock | ||
the pain u experience,when people put a sticker on your skin..and then pull it off... Ouch!..dont give me a sticker shock
1. | sticker shock | ||
May 21, 2010 Urban Word of the Day
A condition resulting from seeing the total price of a bunch of items and realizing the damage is much greater than you originally expected. May cause a person to have second thoughts about the purchase. I wanted to book your mom for 7 days of her "services," but when I realized the total came to $21, I got major sticker shock and decided to bail out.
2. | Sticker Shock | ||
A problem that affects people as soon as they try to buy groceries in Alaska, Hawaii, New York City or San Francisco. Also very common at cheesy 'upscale' nightclubs in nearly every mid to large sized city in the United States. From what I understand there is a seriously acute version of the disease in London too. Not sure if the British variety is contagious. In Alaska everything is imported so prices are higher resulting in early sticker shock. When you start to notice that even products produced in that state (i.e. petrol, weed) are way more expensive than they would be elsewhere in the U.S. the condition moves beyond sticker shock and there is a new word for it: Gouging.
3. | Sticker Shock | ||
The feeling people get when the realize the true price of an item that they initially thought was a bargain or at least a good buy. Often leads to buyers remorse. Many Obama voters are feeling a sense sticker shock now that they are faced with the true cost of his programs and agenda.
5. | Sticker shock | ||
The reaction you has when you discover exactly how young the girl you've been dating really is. "Brian had sticker shock when he discovered that his girlfriend was really 17"

After working together on Love The Way You Lie and Dr. Dre's emotionally charged track I Need A Doctor , Skylar Grey and Eminem have teamed up again for the raunchy single C'Mon Let Me Ride off Grey's upcoming disc Don't Look Down.
Moving from 8 Mile to the Detroit countryside, Grey and Eminem created a tongue in cheek video, complete with a run-down trailer park, tanning beds and lots and lots of sexual innuendos in both the song's lyrics and visuals. Eminem not only performed on the track, but also scores credits as Executive Producer for Grey's 2013 disc.
While most of the material coming from both artists as of late has been heavy in subject matter, C'Mon Let Me Ride is a return to Eminem's playful days of My Name Is and The Real Slim Shady and shows a fun side to Grey.
Check out Eminem and Skylar Grey in C'Mon Let Me Ride below.

The standings in the Suburban League will get very interesting this week.
Wadsworth, Green, Tallmadge and Copley all have 2-0 records.
Revere, Highland, Cloverleaf and Nordonia are 0-2.
On Friday night, Wadsworth will travel to Green to take on the Bulldogs in a game involving two undefeated teams in the Suburban League.
Wadsworth is led by senior tailback Jack Snowball, who has rushed for 948 yards, in 109 carries, and has scored 12 touchdowns. Quarterback Jon Kuss is second on the team in rushing with 302 on the ground in 55 carries. Kuss has scored three touchdowns.
Wadsworth head coach Greg Dennison says if you think the Grizzlies are just a 'three yards and a cloud of dust' team, you would be wrong. Dennison says they have different types of running plays, plus quarterback Jon Kuss has the ability to put the ball in the air to a number of talented wide receivers.
You'll be able to hear Friday night's game between the Wadsworth Grizzlies and the Green Bulldogs on 1590 WAKR beginning at 7 pm.

Poll: Should Charities Be Allowed To Solicit At Intersections?
Many organizations solicit for donations at intersections throughout the Chicago area.
It's a common sight throughout the Chicago suburbs – organizations soliciting donations at high traffic intersections.
Occassionally the practice garners the attention of local municipal governments. In 2010, Homewood voted to ban the practice, despite the fact that the fire department's "fill the boot" fundraiser brought in $25,000 over six years for the Muscular Dystrophy Assoociation, the Chicago Tribune reported.
In banning the practice, village officials in Homewood cited safety concerns and said that roadways were never designed for soliciting, the Tribune reported. However, charities view the practice as a valuable way to raise funds.
In February of this year Mount Prospect also addressed the issued. Trustees voted to limit solicitations to specific intersections, the Daily Herald reported.
In considering limits on such soliciting, Mount Prospect worked with several groups that utilize the practice including the American Legion and Knights of Columbus, the Journal and Topcs reported.

It is a good way to reduce the population of fundraisers.
b garrett

One time per year per "charity". I think several of the I think "legitimate" charities such as the firemen are well worth while. The PROBLEM. Is the "community outreach" that is at most every intersection every weekend. Which has ruined it for everyone else. I highly doubt anyone even knows where the money solicited for that "charity " even goes. Those people walking around at each and every intersection looking at motorists waving smiling looking at you..... Just makes me angry Total rip off I suspect....can't believe it when I see people actually give money! I ALWAYS give to firemen......
5:58 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
It's kind of like "one bad apple spoils the whole bunch". When it was only a few legitimate charities like the Firemen, MDA, and such--it wasn't too bad, but if they are allowed to solicit, how realistically can any other likely non-legitimate so-called charity be prevented from soliciting?
How about allowing no more intersection/street solicitations of ANY kind, but then instead, encouraging the legitimate ones to only be allowed to do so in front of public stores (where the charity has to get the store's permission to do so). I do think it's just a matter of time before someone soliciting in the middle of a street is hit and injured or killed.

One group had the Walmart in Mt Prospect targeted last week, they had collectors at the end of each aisle in the parking lot - as if Walmart parking lots weren't dangerous enough. I agree with b garrett, some of these collectors don't appear to be with any specified group, just wearing pullovers with "Outreach Ministry" on them. Fireman, American Legion, KoC, I don't have a problem with it, just wish it was done at safer intersections.
Karen Murtha
9:12 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
FYI, that WAS Knights of Columbus last weekend at Walmart. Collecting for the mission of helping mentally and physically disabled children. Standing in the aisle wasn't OUR idea, it was Walmart's. Yes it felt dangerous, as were the shoppers deliberately going out of their way to ignore us...
A Concerned Parent
8:50 am on Monday, October 1, 2012
Good to know, Karen, that it was Walmart's decision. I gave (and enjoyed the Tootsie roll!!).
Frances Murray
9:24 am on Sunday, September 30, 2012
No, this practice should be banned. In addition to these solicitations being wide open to fraud (not all of them, but the cheaters have given the honest charities a black eye), this type of solicitation is dangerous. It's dangerous for the guy with the money can and can be dangerous for the driver who is distracted while digging for money.
1:11 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Absolutely! Being distracted while sitting at a red light is so incredibly dangerous.
Kelly K
9:38 am on Sunday, September 30, 2012
It's way too easy for people to buy a vest with some logo on it, buy a bag of lollipops at Costco and stand there pretending to be with a charity taking people's money! The only charities collecting that way who I give any money to is the firemen (cause they rule) and sometimes the Kiwanis peanut day people. Anyone else is totally suspect to me, in particular those Outreach Ministry people whom I believe are the biggest scam ever in our NW suburbs. I don't believe they are legit even for a second!
Teresa Solis Pedroza
10:32 am on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Misericordia yes, K of C yes, Lions club yes, Firemen, yes, these are once a year events and I know these funds are vital to their bottom line - the "others" are there day in and day out and I highly doubt their legitimacy - who are the folks in the all white uniforms with red stripes?
Guido McGinty
8:51 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Of course you can. I thought we were addressing whether or not there should be a law.
10:44 am on Sunday, September 30, 2012
There is always someone at the Lake Cook overpass stoplight every week. They seem to have a badge on but I'd like to know if they really do have permission from the City of Highland Park. I don't object to their presence but to see them there literally every week is way too much.
irving drobny
11:18 am on Sunday, September 30, 2012
not recommended for intersections & in the streets or curbs. they hinder traffic. o.k. for private commercial area (with permission of course) or at municipal area such as parks, in front of libraries or at sports events.
Frances Murray
11:48 am on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Great idea ! Too bad the gods of power who issue permits never thought of it.
12:02 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Most cities/villages require a permit. Solicitors must be wearing vests. I have done this for several causes and I know that there is paperwork to go through along with being a legitimate charity. People volunteering also sign waivers.
Teresa Caldwell
2:21 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
So you sign a waiver to risk your life for this charity? Is it worth it?
Margaret McCarthy
12:28 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Established charities should confine themselves to commercial or public venues after gaining whatever permissions needed -- it is distracting and dangerous to do this at intersections. However worthy the cause, there are safer areas from which to solicit. I have done stints "begging" for causes I consider worthwhile -- hard work, but important. I would not do it at a busy intersection.
12:29 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
These beggars walk in front of cars and block normal traffic flow. If we dont start driving in a regular situation we can get a ticket. The ones from some drug ministry have cans with big wholes in the tops. Right. They walk all over and we cant make left turns on the arrow.
12:51 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
I am so tired of people asking me for money - intersections, street corners, at the entrance to the supermarket, outside the coffee shop, and on the CTA. I am generous and charitable with the causes I support but I get overwhelmed by the constant and insistent begging.
5:45 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
I refuse to give to anyone soliciting in front of a store. I am there to shop, not give to a charity. I give to charities of my choice by sending a check to the organization. That way I know where the money is going (at least supposed to go).
7:16 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Well said Mr. Kerr. I loathe being approach by kids at the grocery store trying to peddle their popcorn or cookies. I flat out tell them no and hope their parents prepared them for rejection in their desperate attempts to raise money. I'm not heartless, but I cannot afford to buy outrageously priced goods every time I am approached. Years ago in the corporate world, it was insane how co-workers would be going from desk to desk trying to sell whatever it was their kids were supposed to be trying to sell to raise funds. Last year, a co-worker was seeking $25 from everyone to send her 6-year-old daughter to some shallow kiddie beauty pageant. Everyone was caving in out of guilt and not have the nerve to say no. I said no. I said in no way was I going to support her daughter into something I am totally against. Twenty-five dollars, indeed.
Diane Romanowski
1:27 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
and why do those outfits look like band uniforms on the 53 exit at Rand, don't even know the charity and don't want to know, looks bogus
1:53 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
I agree with some of you. I too don't give to the shady ones. Let the ones who serve a purpose to collect, fireman, K of C, The Poppy for the vets, etc......but if you banned these people then you need to ban the Boys and Girls Scout and the bell ringers at Christmas. You can't let some and not let others.
Teresa Caldwell
2:14 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
@LMS - I say ban them all! Especially the ones at intersections! It is dangerous for everyone. We all should have a choice of who to donate too. If people want to help, then help to inform people of the charities by internet and mail, not begging people at inappropriate times and places.
5:06 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
LMS, the Boy and Girl Scouts and the Salvation Army people aren't in the intersections, so they needn't be 'banned' from soliciting donations. They are in front of stores like Dominick's, Jewel, Wal-Mart, Target, and Walgreens, etc. It isn't a village decision if they stand in front of the store asking for donations, it's up to the store.
I don't have a problem with donating to a legitimate organization when I come out of a store. But this crap in the intersection should be stopped.
5:46 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
I've never seen the scouts or Salvation Army at an intersection.
Jim Dewey
3:09 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
I belong to Kiwanis, one of the organizations that solicits on the streets. We are limited by our organization's rules and local policy to once a year, and we must always secure permission from the town (Palatine). The village limits the street corners we may use, based on security factors. We secure special insurance for the event. It is a well-organized and supervised event. We receive many thousands of dollars in donations, and funnel all the money collected to worthy local causes; the funds stay in the community.
Sometimes people are irritated at us for being at the stop sign or traffic signal holding a bag of peanuts and smiling, but the usual response is a returned smile and a cheerful greeting, with or without a donation. No one is pressured; all donations are free-will.
As long as it is well-regulated and limited by the local government, it is a safe, efficient way to raise money along with public awareness of the work that our organization and others do for the community every day of the year.
6:03 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Sure, it's "safe and efficient" until a street-side solicitor from even an approved charity is hit by a car or hurt. With all the road-rage and poor economy this days, why even RISK getting hurt just to bring in some funds? There have got to be SAFER ways to solicit funds.
b garrett
3:21 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
of course...politically incorrect to say....but; these' COMMUNITY OUTREACH'/WHAT EVER COMMUNITY THEY REPRESENT?/ guys are all black. and of course will scream 'DISCRIMINATION' IF ANY EFFORT TO CONTROL THEM INITIATED.....ANYWAY/ SOON ENOUGH TOO COLD FOR THEM TO STAND OUTSIDE....TILL NEXT SPRING WHEN THEY DESCEND ON THE NORTHERN SUBURBS AGAIN....HOPEFULLY IF PEOPLE JUST STOP GIVING ANY MONEY THEY WILL GET TIRED OF IT AND GO AWAY OF THEIR OWN VOLITION.
7:46 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Excuse me? They're all black. Funny, not all the ones I've seen around Evanston, Skokie, and the surrounding areas, nor the ones I've seen in Wheaton and the Western suburbs. Not politically incorrect b. - ignorant, false, and just plain stupid.
9:50 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
I do give, Lucas, but not at roadsides. However, that really wasn't the point, was it?
Donna M.
3:26 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
I think it should be limited to once a year and to local charities with chapter within 5 miles of the solicitation area.
3:55 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Yes! It makes people feel good to help a worthy cause and non-profits need the support. Permits should weed out who is a legitimate 501(c)3 organization and who is not. I thank the volunteers who give their time to help Clearbrook and other worthy causes!
Jeanne Hanson
4:14 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
U r only partly right, b garrett. Your comment IS politically incorrect, but it won't just be the blacks who will be unhappy; the WHITE folks who collect hundreds of dollars will also scream if the practice is banned. Giving money isn't half as dangerous as talking on cell phones, putting on make up, eating and drinking, reading the paper (yep!) and a host of other multi-tasking distractions I've seen while collecting money for Rotary. Permits ARE required, and charities must have a 501c3 standing. It's a good reminder that every day around the world there are people in need. If you don't give a few coins at least say a prayer.
4:54 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
No, this practice should be stopped. We don't need people clogging the intersections begging for donations at anytime during the day. I don't care how worthy the cause is--it's ridiculous that any suburb does this. Buffalo Grove is too eager to allow this to continue.
Like others posting, I also wonder about this 'outreach ministry' with the white uniforms that look like a band director's uniform or a nurse's uniform. Just how legit are these people?
b garrett
5:01 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Soon enough we will have destitute people trying to wash your windshield at intersections./as in Mexico/ or steal your watch when you stop at traffice lights/ as in brasil/. 0r shoot you and steal your care/ as in south chicago/! Those outreach guys. Probably gang members in all Likely hood
7:44 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Yea, I'm sure that's how the gangs are making money these days.
Gregg Baker
5:13 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
The government will soon put a stop to those people soliciting money at street corners. It is not an issue of safety, but one of competition for our money. The government wants to redistribute our income as they see fit, not as we see fit.
5:41 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
There are already people in the city trying to wash windshields for money. What a rip! I don't think anyone should be allowed to solicit at intersections - anywhere. In the first place it is dangerous. They walk in the middle of the street and almost dare you to hit them. In the second place, how do we know who they really are? They stand out there with a vest on and a bucket in their hand asking every stopped car for money. It isn't like a motorist can ask to see their license or permit to solicit.
8:38 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
As the Republicans attempt to chip away (with a sledgehammer) at community outreach, social services and other methods of helping the mentally ill, disabled and unemployed....you should expect to see more of this should they succeed.
You won't just be turning down individual solicitors, entire families will be out on the street. Oh, I forgot the elderly. Grandma will be out there too.
As you drive or walk by, don't consider that entitled feeling you always to be a virtue....it surely isn't.
b garrett
8:50 pm on Sunday, September 30, 2012
Feel free to give whatever you want to those "community outreach" shakedown artists at each intersection! The more you give the more of them will be coming up from the south suburbs to "collect". For the legitimate occasional charities. I'm happy to give. The general degradation of life styles is directly related to the liberal politicians promotion of food stamps welfare and never ending unemployment benefits. "Redistribution" as mr Obama puts it......

11:58 am on Tuesday, October 2, 2012
All I know is if I was out there trying to raise money to pay my childs medical bills, a police officer would tell me I am not allowed to because it is too dangerous. If I want to donate to them I would. How about create a fundraising event instead of harassing people while waiting for the light to change?
