it might mean we had the same mother
All the above is probably true in my case, but I haven't wanted to kill myself since September, that's pretty good.
sometimes low self-esteem and inferiority complex lead u to become lazy and incompetent..bt its nt necessary in all the cases....there are some people naturally having this kind of nature...
Actually alot of things depress me these days , I can't find any major motivation, Now I feel even more demonized by society cause of the current events., I sometimes lay in bed waiting to die silently to make this pain go away, But the little things in life and my family & few friends I have are what fuels my desire to see more days. I have to live for them.
i'd say so and perhaps even with a low selfesteem

Coffman, Lamborn work to ban gay weddings from military facilities
Colorado Republican Reps. Doug Lamborn and Mike Coffman joined Rep. Michele Bachmann and 83 other members of the House as signers of a letter to the U.S. Senate urging that body to pass an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act that would prohibit gay members of America's Armed Forces from using military facilities for marriage ceremonies.
The Department of Defense, in the wake of the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, has indicated that it will allow chaplains and same-sex couples to use facilities on a "sexual orientation-neutral basis," something Republican members of the U.S. House oppose.
The letter was authored by Republican Rep. Todd Akin of Missouri and was signed by 86 members of the House.
"The Defense of Marriage Act was passed by a bipartisan vote in Congress and signed into law by President Clinton," Akin said in a statement. "Unfortunately, this current administration is now directing the Department of Defense to ignore this law and perform gay marriages on military bases. I think this is wrong, which is why I offered an amendment to the House-passed defense bill making it clear that DOMA applies to the DOD. This letter calls for the Senate to add a similar amendment to their version of the bill. The Department of Defense should not be allowed to simply ignore laws they do not like."
The House members complain that guidance by the Department of Defense General Counsel would make resources available to all members of the military. The general counsel guidance said that the "use of DoD real property and facilities for private functions, including religious and other ceremonies, should be made on a sexual orientation neutral basis."
"This clear and deliberate violation of established U.S. law sets a dangerous precedent," the letter states. "[The Defense of Marriage Act] makes it clear that for purposes of the federal government, marriage is defined as between one man and one woman. The use of federal property or federal employees to perform anything but opposite-sex ceremonies is a clear contravention of the law."
The letter comes as same-sex couples in the military filed suit to overturn DOMA on Thursday in order to secure military benefits denied to them by the federal government.

Rent it Right
If the rent is high compared with the concession (for example, the concession is only one-quarter of the rent), the market is glutted with rentals like this, and if other landlords are offering deep concessions, you may have been justified in thinking that a $500 concession was an intentional marketing decision.

The pitfalls of the Congressional legislative process briefly threatened to derail the proposed FIRE Act in a House subcommittee, until veteran fire service lobbyists came to the rescue and prevented what could have been a near-fatal accident. It's a story worth telling because it shows the value of experience and why it's necessary to have a unified effort and a strategic plan when it comes to passing legislation.
Known as the Pascrell bill or FIRE Act, the official title of HR-1168 is the "Firefighter Investment and Response Enhancement Act." It was introduced by Rep. William Pascrell Jr. (D-NJ) and calls for the federal government to provide $5 billion in grants to local fire departments over a period of five years.
The bill won support from the major fire organizations after some modifications were made in the original draft. It also has picked up 112 sponsors, including 20 Republicans. But many more GOP sponsors are needed if a big-spending bill introduced by a Democrat is to have any chance of being passed in a Congress controlled by a Republican majority.
Potential trouble came from out of nowhere when the Basic Research subcommittee of the House Science Committee met for a hearing on the U.S. Fire Administration's (USFA) reauthorization bill. Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-TX), apparently thought it would be a good idea to make FIRE Act an amendment to USFA's $46 million reauthorization bill.
FIRE Act's supporters were caught by surprise, because Rep. Pascrell had told the fire service leaders that he wanted his bill to go through the process on its own merits. They feared that an amendment costing more than the bill it was attached to would most certainly be killed in committee, and it would look as is the Democrats were trying to pull an end run on the Republicans. "Any big-money bill introduced by Democrats is bound to arouse suspicion in Congress," a fire service lobbyist explains, "which is why we have to get more Republican sponsors."
Legislative experts from the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) and International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) moved quickly and quietly behind the scenes to correct a tactical error. Rep. Johnson withdrew her amendment and the FIRE Act now is waiting for various committees to schedule their own separate hearings. Meanwhile, the bill's supporters are hustling to get more Republicans on board.
There have been some encouraging signs. Rep. F. James Sensenbrenner Jr. (R-WI), chairman of the House Science Committee, expressed his intention to hold a full hearing on the problems facing firefighters. Rep. Nick Smith (R-MI), chairman of the Basic Research subcommittee, also is a member of the powerful House Budget Committee and said he would work in the budget process to find money for the FIRE Act. Furthermore, the USFA's reauthorization bill - which calls for an $18 million increase in spending - sailed through the subcommittee with no trouble.
However, FIRE Act still has a long and tortuous road to navigate. "It's tough to push a Republican Congress on anything that involves big spending, especially for something that is primarily a local responsibility," another fire service lobbyist points out. But he adds that there seems to be new "fire-friendly" mood on Capitol Hill and, in his view, Pascrell's bill may have a realistic chance of being passed.
Also encouraging is the fact that several senior Republican members of the Science Committee have a history of support for the fire-rescue service. They include such stalwarts as Sherwood Boehlert (NY), Connie Morella (MD) and Curt Weldon (PA), who is the GOP co-sponsor of the FIRE Act. A showing of strong grass-roots support from firefighters around the country would do a lot to help other members realize how much the fire service needs this bill. It's up to you to let them know.

Landon Donovan is back on American soil, ready to help lead Major League Soccer into a new era. Well, at the very least, he's looking to keep the form he found at Everton and parlay that into success for LA Galaxy. And let's be completely honest here, most American soccer fans wanted Donovan to stay in the Premiership to hone his skills in advance of this summer's World Cup. Now that he's back in the States, we'd prefer him encased in bubble wrap for a few months. And maybe someone else should drive him around for a while.
⇥"It's kind of weird when you're driving, then all of a sudden you see someone coming right at you," Donovan said. "It was actually interesting coming back here and driving for the first few times with people in the car and they were like, 'What are you doing?'"During his stint at Everton, Donovan proved he can play – and thrive – at the highest levels of the international game. And it's good, if you read his comments since coming back to America, that he still has a little chip on his shoulder.
⇥"I don't live under a rock – I'm not stupid. I know things that people say. I also understand when people say those things they have their own issues and there's nothing you can do about it.⇥
⇥"I'm not a revengeful person, a vindictive person. I think what was most important for me was to prove to myself I was capable of that. That was the most validating."⇥
From PR Newswire:
⇥Visa's Financial Soccer is an educational video game that combines the world's most popular sport with a high-quality financial literacy curriculum to create an innovative approach for helping children and adults learn about personal finance. In addition to helping create educational questions for the soccer-themed personal finance game, Donovan also appears on the game's cover and website. ⇥⇥Donovan unveiled the game, which he reportedly helped develop, at Venice High School. Visa also donated computers for the kids to play the game and "for other academic uses." And who knows, maybe Donovan employed the folks at Financial Soccer to help resolve the MLS labor dispute.↵
⇥A FIFA Partner since 2007, Visa has been working to roll out Financial Soccer in over 25 countries in the months leading up to the 2010 FIFA World Cup™. This multilingual game is available at www.financialsoccer.com. Financial Soccer is part of Practical Money Skills for Life, Visa's free, award-winning, financial education program.

Haskell wants more from England
ESPN Staff
June 25, 2012
James Haskell enjoyed a strong return to international rugby © Getty Images
James Haskell insists England can show further improvement following their spirited showing during the recent tour of South Africa.
England lost the Test series 2-0, but showed signs of progress from the 2011 World Cup and the Six Nations earlier this year. Haskell, who made an impressive international return in Saturday's14-14 draw in the final Test, believes the team must continue to move forward.
"To draw or win against a southern hemisphere side is pretty special, especially on their own turf," he said. "Moving towards the autumn internationals, hopefully this has been a big step, but I think we have got to be a bit more creative in attack. We have got to test teams a bit more.
"We have got the physicality and the ability to finish. We have just got to be a bit smarter, get the likes of (Chris) Ashton and Manu (Tuilagi) running through holes rather than at people."
England will play the Springboks again during their autumn international programme this year, as well as facing Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. Haskell expects the culture created by Stuart Lancaster will continue to bond the squad.
"In terms of culture and character, this has helped as well," said Haskell. "You can look back and say that in the heat of the battle, in the fire of Port Elizabeth, we came together and we didn't take a backward step.
"We didn't have the polish we wanted but we were certainly positive. Every time you take to the field you gain a bit more knowledge about what it takes to win in international rugby.
"I think we will be a bit more settled. To push South Africa like we did in all these games, we have got to be pretty positive about that."
Haskell did not play in the Six Nations and had to bide his time after being called into Lancaster's 42-man touring squad. He sat out the first two Tests but an injury to captain Chris Robshaw allowed him to return to the international stage.
"When you are in the system and loving life you take it for granted a bit," he said.
"But when you are on the other side of the world and have been written off, and when you get that chance to pull on the England shirt again, you don't want to leave anything out there."

Almost unnoticed in Obama's budget for 2014 is a strong commitment to the Land and Water Conservation Fund and, with that investment, the hope that this successful federal program will be renewed beyond its current expiration date in 2015.

Have you made this pattern?
Share with the Craftsy community.
This matching 8ply Bib and Washcloth are worked in a lovely lacy rib stitch. With only two rows to the pattern, it is deceptively easy to work.
My Bib and Washcloth set has been worked in 8ply yarn but this pattern can easily be adapted to suit other yarns.
Please note that this pattern is protected by copyright and you do not have permission to copy or resell this pattern. You may, however, sell the knitted product.
26.5 sts and 26 rows to 10cm over patt, using 4.00mm needles.
My mum taught me to knit when I was just four years old and I have been addicted ever since.
I now work (if you can call it work!) as a pattern writer and technical editor, both for companies here in Australia and for my own business.
I love the creative process and using a simple ball of yarn and a pair of needles to make something gorgeous yet practical.

Victor and Tanya Shevtsov specialize in preparing most talented students for performing careers. Piano lessons with Victor and Tanya encourage students to develop their musical talent to the peak of its potential. A unique teaching method, based on the Russian piano tradition and extensive piano teaching experience help Vitta Piano students achieve outstanding results in RCM exams, local, National and International competitions.
All students of Vitta Piano participate at the annual Studio Recital. Students, which show the most impressive progress in their studies have a unique opportunity to perform at the annual Young Stars Festival or Wonder Child Showcase Concert, organized by Vitta Piano. These concerts have already became famous and take place at Vancouver's most prestigious concert venues.
Our Little Pianist. First Steps books focus on learning correct hand position, flexibility and freedom of movements and good playing habits. The results are amazing! The Method gives young children such a remarkable jumpstart, that our students complete 8 Grades of Piano (RCM) after only 3 years of studies. The most talented of our students usually achieve Grade 10 – ARCT levels after 5 years of studies. For the best results we recommend to start learning piano at the age of 5 and in certain cases 4 years old.
We believe that all children have a potential to achieve very advanced level in playing piano if they have an opportunity to use and enjoy the right way of learning.

Blackalicious are interviewed by Vancouver Province
Even more than the 200,000-selling Arrow, the new CD establishes the act as aces able to move in both underground and mainstream turf with a fans ranging from hardcores to hippies.
"We've been able to build that following without a mega hit, brick by brick and I'd rather have done it like this," says Gift Of Gab. "Now we can tour anywhere, anytime we like and they're there for the journey."
Those who've travelled with these guys before know that the present configuration includes Gab, DJ Chief Xcel, and live musicians and back-up singers. As though inspired by working with the likes of George Clinton and others, the goal of the show now is to prove there ain't no party like a B-funk party and a b-funk party don't stop.
"Money and economics have really dictated how underground hip hop can be presented as an art. That's what it is first, but if you watch a lot of videos, you might think it can only be presented in one predictable way, "For us, live musicians in concert were required to forward our art right now."
By next tour and CD, it might be robots. Part of DJ Shadow's Quannum Projects collective, Blackalicious and its associates are always advancing the cause of West Coast hip hop.
"All of us continue to push ourselves, studying and incorporating other music; be it funk, jazz, opera, world and rock 'n' roll into the mix. We don't ever want our sound to become predictable. If it's different, something we've never done, but it still sounds somehow universal than we're doing it right."
Busy tours to South Africa, Brazil, Australia, Europe and Canada have been very good to the Quannum stable. Gab says the newest signee is Sino-Brazilian S�o Paulo MC Curumin. Recent releases from tourmates Pigeon John, Lifesavas and Fatlip with Omni are all moving him as well, but the real rush is working on his second solo album.
It's due to drop in the fall.

4 posts tagged "Bernhard Willhelm"
Mykita Takes Manhattan-------
Tonight, Berlin-based eyewear label Mykita will open its debut American outpost in New York City. But first it has to grapple with the Northeast's heat wave. "We are trying to find a way to cool it down!" said creative director Moritz Krueger.
Krueger needn't worry: Mykita's modus operandi—from its product design to its retail formatting—is inviolably cool. "We conceived the store in-house. It comes from one hand; it's very personal. We try to create our own world," he explained. In New York, that universe is lent an industrial twist via stark white walls made of perforated steel beads, flight-trolley storage units, and a fluorescent lighting scheme that tracks the space's original sprinkler system. Mykita Manhattan also boasts a special laboratory rendered in partnership with Carl Zeiss—one of the world's leading optical research firms—in which clients may consult with on-site optometrists for bespoke frames and lenses.

Bernhard Willhelm's Fashion Fiesta-------
Chaos and confusion were the order of the day at Bernhard Willhelm's Mexican-fiesta-themed presentation at Paris' Kogan Gallery yesterday evening. But, according to the rambunctious German designer, who came dressed for the occasion in a sombrero and a coconut necklace, that was precisely the point. "The theme is 'You'll Never See What You Have Paid For,' and then we went Mexican, but the collection is not Mexican," said Willhelm. "It doesn't really make sense, but that's the only way to describe it."
Models caused a stir on the street as they shimmied in front of the gallery window wearing cutout frocks printed with collaged human eyes, two-toned leggings, and retro trainers. Characteristic of Willhem's conceptual perspective, the runway was an installation by New York-based artist Christian Holstad. Wrapping around the gallery, it featured totems made of discarded fashion magazines, hanging sculptures crafted from vegetables, fruit, and plastic wrap, and what appeared to be Styrofoam cakes spinning on old record players. The models, with their radioactive-pink lips and shredded-paper pigtails, effectively merged with the artwork: One girl smashed a cake against the window while showing off her tribal-print black and white tunic, while another incorporated a watermelon-topped umbrella into her strut.
Most of the designer's playful street-cool looks were paired with metal MYKITA glasses with XXL cut into where the lenses should have been. "It means live large, even if you only have a little money," explained the designer. Judging by the models' lighthearted runway behavior, as well as the laughing, if not rowdy guests, Willhelm's point was well taken. And perhaps, in these pressed times, his collection's message makes sense after all.
Bernhard Willhelm Prefers "Funny Feet"-------
Camper, the Majorcan footwear company, is known for its casual kicks, but the label also keeps a bead on the weird-is-wonderful market. With its bottom line attended to by sensible shoes, the company is free to indulge its taste for artful oddity with the collaborative Together line. Not that they've stinted on the trappings for the project. Together's collaborators have included the industrial designers Jaime Hayon and Hella Jongerius and German fashion designer Bernhard Willhelm, now in his fourth season with the brand. Willhelm, fresh from a show on Friday where he dressed models in Japanese shibori-pattern sheaths and surf-punk graphic tees to weirdly Dada effect, kept the beach bum vibe strong for Camper. His multicolored, hiking boot-inspired trainer with an open "wave" sole gave even Camper's ingenious, Barcelona-based design department pause (they eventually figured it out). Perhaps in celebration of that accomplishment, the brand threw Willhelm a party last night at its Faubourg Saint-Honoré shop. "I wanted a pair of shoes to make you feel like you're standing on a wave," Willhelm explained of his design. "I suppose my favorite place to be is somewhere between good taste and bad. And I'm sick of slick high heels, now. I prefer funny feet."
paris fashion week: bernhard willhelm's runway snacks-------
If there's one thing that you can count on during Paris fashion week, it's that the Bernhard Willhelm show will be a spectacle. Not because, like Jean Paul Gaultier, he has a troupe of ballet dancers as an opening act, or because, like Giambattista Valli, he has a myriad of celebrities in attendance, but simply because of the sheer absurdity of the characters both on and off the catwalk. A confused superhero (Superman outfit, Spider-Man mask), a robot, and a Germanic-looking Smurf were just a few highlights from the audience at Thursday's show. Luckily, Wilhelm had permeated his Spring '09 collection with enough eccentricity to compete: He showed clay jewelry modeled on his favorite German delicacies. Oversize pretzel brooch or a wurst necklace, anyone?

The wounds from the tragic events of June 30 are still fresh. Our city continues to grieve the loss of 19 of our finest men, the Granite Mountain Hotshots.
From the first moment the news broke, the city was overwhelmed with heartfelt calls and letters filled with sympathy and support for the families of the men and our community. There is no way to personally recognize and thank everyone for the tremendous outpouring of support.
Firefighters and uniformed officers from more than 200 agencies and organizations in Arizona and around the country rushed to Prescott to join the Incident Management Team. They worked tirelessly around the clock to meet the needs of the families, our Fire Department and our community.
The 100 Club of Arizona was one of the first groups on the scene to provide the families with direct financial assistance. The Phoenix Fire Department stepped up, arriving in full force to bolster our Fire Department and establish a donation account for the families. Their help, along with firefighters from around Arizona and the country, freed up crucial time to allow Prescott firefighters to be with the families and attend the memorial and funeral services.
Donations to help the families continue to arrive. They are much needed and appreciated.
The Arizona Diamondbacks led the way, raising more than $700,000. Seven-year-old Ava Kleinman and her family's bake sale raised $25,000. Numerous local businesses in Prescott and throughout Arizona have contributed large sums to help. The donations from out of state have simply been incredible. The community of Bakersfield, Calif., and the Kern County Fire Department raised more than $125,000.
Whether a substantial check or a dollar placed in a local donation boot, every bit helps. To the thousands of groups and individuals who have donated and deserve to be individually recognized, we apologize for not being able to mention each and every one of you.
The City Council is especially grateful to our Fire Department and other city employees, who in the midst of so much anguish stood tall and excelled under the most difficult of circumstances. Through the worst kind of tragedy imaginable, the world learned of Prescott's best, and Prescott has received the best from the world.
Important work is underway to fulfill our pledge to honor these men with the highest distinction.
We must honor them in the same way we honor others of our country who have led by example and, in doing so, made the ultimate sacrifice.
The fallen Granite Mountain Hotshots will never be forgotten, nor will the generosity and compassion which has been bestowed upon our community by so many people.
Marlin Kuykendall is mayor of Prescott. Charlie Arnold, Steve Blair, Alan Carlow, Chris Kuknyo, Jim Lamerson and Len Scamardo are Prescott City Council members.

The Angels' summer concert series continues Saturday with Ludacris, who is a rapper your mom has heard of (Crash!) but has never actually heard, and whose CDs your mom would take away from you if she ever did hear them. Those songs are dirty.
But, as my coworker Dan Woike pointed out to me, Ludacris is probably hard at work right this moment cleaning all those songs up, and replacing the naughty words with baseball-themed lyrics, so that your child will be safe. Using a recent set list for a Ludacris show, here's a guide to what he's got to clean up.
(Warning: Moderately veiled bad words ahead. No kids allowed until ALL the bad words have been replaced in ALL the songs.)
Number One Spot
Offensive lyrics: "Neighbors catch contacts, from the blunts that I've rolled."
Replacement lyrics: "Aybar makes contact on the bunts that he's rolled."
[Note: See how it works? I'm sorry this is happening.]
Area Codes
Offensive lyrics: "I've got h**s (I've got h**s) in different area codes, area codes."
Replacement lyrics: "I've got holds (I've got holds) in different area codes, area codes."
How Low
Offensive lyrics: "Yeah I think you a superstar with an a** like that you gotta blow"
Replacement lyrics: "Yeah I think you a superstar but with a runner on second and nobody out you gotta bunt, or at least hit a grounder to the right side of the infield, sorry, that's just the way the game is played."
Everybody Drunk

The Daily Scope
Serendipity will find you today. It might be that you discover a shared passion while talking to a friend. Or at work you might suddenly find yourself in the spotlight. Whatever happens, you're up for it and feel delighted by the unexpected.
Week of May 13–May 19
Mercury, the planet of the mind, will fly into airy Gemini on Wednesday, where he holds court with all his brilliance for the following fortnight. Mercury is the ruler of Gemini, so when in residence, he invites us to share in the excitement of his sparkling, witty world.
For the next two weeks, Mercury will be at his most versatile and charming, so we can expect dazzling conversation as well as absorbing discussions and debates. In Gemini, the sign of the twins, Mercury takes a special delight in duality, being equally fond of the elegant, eloquent poet and the swift, smooth talking salesman.
Deeply impressionable, Mercury relishes the richness of variety and is drawn to constant stimulation. But if his insatiable curiosity is not satisfied—if he grows restless or bored—he will turn his twinkling eye to trickery, inciting all manner of mischief and mayhem for sheer amusement.
In Gemini, Mercury inspires us to be lighthearted, and this week will be infused with humor—whether scatterbrained, screwball, or sophisticated. Mercury is happiest when we are laughing, and he is intent on filling the world with felicity and flirtation.

Chiefs | L. Johnson in no rush to get new deal done
Fri, 2 Feb 2007 07:53:16 -0800
Randy Covitz, of the Kansas City Star, reports the Kansas City Chiefs have had discussions with RB Larry Johnson regarding a new contract, although the talks are at a preliminary stage. Johnson, who has three more years left on his original contract and is scheduled to earn $850,000 in 2007, says he is in no rush to get a new deal done. "It's out of my hands," Johnson said. "It's the same thing as going in with the deal when I was a rookie. It doesn't bother me. I'm fine. It's more about trying to win the Super Bowl. I'm not trying to win 'Richest Man Alive.' "


text: A new elementary school could be in the town's future if this week's school board discussions gain any traction. But that could mean delaying renovation work at the junior high school. Board members at the meeting agreed that a $38 million project to renovate Coffin Elementary School and Brunswick Junior High School would be too costly for the town to do all at once.

Dorset day care centre scheme
11:00am Saturday 5th July 2014 in News
CHANCERY House day care centre has launched a Friends' scheme.
Chancery House president Monica Burt said: "The idea is that we have somebody that we can go to when we need help, advice, volunteering, specialist knowledge, plus the fundraising."
The popular day care centre has had notice that Dorset County Council will be cutting its funding – but the centre won't know the details until at least August, said Mrs Burt.
She added: "People think we get funding from Age UK.
"We have to do all our own fundraising which can be very difficult, particularly now as we are not getting the same level of funding from the county council."

If you were compelled to water your lawn this winter but worry your Santa Rosa sewer bill will soar because of it, fear not.
The city's Board of Public Utilities signed off on a plan Thursday to change the way sewer rates are calculated to ensure ratepayers aren't penalized for irrigating during one of the driest winters on record.
The board unanimously approved a plan to calculate next year's sewer bills using people's water usage from this winter or from last winter, whichever was lower.
The change should appease ratepayers concerned that their sewer bills would spike next year because they watered their lawns and plants during the winter, which in normal years is largely unnecessary.
"We have been getting tons of calls throughout the winter about it," said Patty Kutches, revenue manager in the city's utilities department.
The water flowing into a home is tracked by meters, but wastewater leaving the home must be estimated.
Sewer bills are calculated by multiplying the sewer rate, which is currently $12 per thousand gallons, by the number of gallons of water estimated to be used from the toilet and tap each month, known as the sewer cap.
During normally wet winter months, from November to March, the city assumes no irrigation is occurring at homes and businesses, and sets the average of those months as the sewer cap, which is used to calculate sewer bills for the following year.
If for example, a homeowner uses 4,000 gallons on average in the winter, the sewer usage charge will be $48 per month. If that same homeowner irrigates their lawn and usage increases to 12,000 gallons, their monthly sewer bill would soar to $144 per month.
The utilities department has created a billing program that will automatically compare the two years of winter usage and use the lower of the two to calculate 2012-2013 bills, Kutches explained.
Board member Stephen Gale said the move demonstrates that the board, which has raised water and sewer rates by 116 percent over the last decade, is sensitive to ratepayers' concerns about higher bills.
41 employees at the Water Agency make over $100,000/year with retirement benefits of 3%/year and they can retire at 60.
In fact ALL the f/t employees have that ridiculous 3%@60 vesting for retirement.
Half the employees, (there were 274 employees in 2010), earned $70,000/year or more in 2010.
Here's a story from Portland:
"By mid-2015, they're projected to hit $137 a quarter, likely to push Portland's water bills significantly above the average for the 50 largest U.S. cities. Adding in projected sewer charges, already among the nation's highest, Portland's combined water and sewer bill would total $346 a quarter in five years."
We've already got Portland's worst case numbers for 2015, (which are amongst the highest in the nation), beat by a large margin today!
Don't just guess about salaries. Know what you're posting about.
"Sewer fees are due to the decision to build a pipeline to the Geysers to dispose of tertiary treated wastewater."
Just over the hill, Lake County is pumping secondary treated wastewater into their steam fields. Why treat it to drinking water standards if you are going to heat it up to 2,000 degrees? Santa Rosa has one of the most expensive wastewater systems in the world. Scary thing is the rest of the state is now looking to us as a model.
This link suggests Santa Rosa has perhaps the highest water rates in the US…from the article the average home uses about 300 gallons per day with a monthly bill approaching $150.
Only Santa Fe is over $100/month with a usage of 400 gallons per day.
I'm guessing the average pay and bennies for Santa Rosa water employees is off the charts compared to other cities.
the min is 2.5 people per household
do i get a carbonfoot print credit
or will the the sewer people charge me and my two dogs as three
I understand that the name of "Bear" translates into "sour" in various other languages. Or was it "bitter." Can't remember.
Despite a worsening financial crisis, the City of Santa Rosa is nearing completion on its most expensive building, a $40 million complex to house the workers and vehicles that maintain the city's water and sewer lines.
The first two phases were paid for out of cash reserves from the city's water and sewer fees, while the third required the city to sell $25 million in bonds, which also are repaid though water and sewer rates. Those rates have been on the rise for years, helping the Utilities Department budget to increase 5 percent over the same two-year period that the city's General Fund, which depends largely on sales and property tax revenue, has plunged 22 percent.
At the time The Geysers steam production and reservoir pressures were declining rapidly, the communities of
Lake County, City of Santa Rosa, and other municipalities were trying to find solutions for their treated sewage
waters. From the early 1990s, Lake County started looking into piping its treated waters into The Geysers. Studies
showed that injecting wastewater could achieve two critical objectives at same time: first, as a continuous supply
of steamfield recharge water that could help mitigate The Geysers productivity decline; and second, as an effluent
disposal method that would be environmentally superior to conventional surface water discharge methods currently in use. Slowly they built consensus on the project and a partnership was developed between public and
private sectors.
After two years of construction, the pipeline was formally dedicated on October 16, 1997. The total construction
cost was $45 million, including $37 million for the pipeline and $8 million in wastewater system improvements.
Based on these facts, it should be clear to everyone that Santa Rosa's sewer fees are as high as they are to pay for the Geysers pipeline and that the new Sewer
Palace did not have any part in the higher sewer rates – or maybe not.
You're simply and completely wrong.
Sewer fees are due to the decision to build a pipeline to the Geysers to dispose of tertiary treated wastewater. The wastewater comes from all of the cities in central Sonoma County. It provides a source of water to inject into the steamfields. The ones that produce electricty for you.
Argue the facts, not fantasy.
Santa Rosa sewer fees are egregious. They were put in place to pay for a $40 + million dollar training center for public works employees.
The calculation was typically faulty from the get go. They have raised water and sewer bills 116% over the passed 10 years by their own admission. Only now does that good socialist Stephen Gale, board member, tell us they are sensitive to rate payers.
Where have they been for the past 10 years? I will tell you where, living in the cocoon of an insular board that has too much power to tax and abuse our tax dollars.

by Czeslaw Milosz
Publisher:The Ecco Press
The Nobel Prize-winning poet Czeslaw Milosz began his remarkable A Treatise on Poetry in the winter of 1955 and finished it in the spring of 1956. It was published originally in parts in the Polish émigré journal Kultura. Now it is available in English for the first time in this expert translation by the award-winning American poet Robert Hass.
A Treatise on Poetry is a great poem about some of the most terrible events in the twentieth century. Divided into four sections, the poem begins at the end of the nineteenth century as a comedy of manners and moves with a devastating momentum through World War I to the horror of World War II. Then it takes on directly and plainly the philosophical abyss into which the European cultures plunged."Author's Notes" on the poem appear at the end of the volume. A stunning literary composition, these notes stand alone as brilliant miniature portraits that magically re-create the lost world of prewar Europe.
A Treatise on Poetry evokes the European twentieth century, its comedy and terror and grief, with the force and expressiveness of a great novel. A tone poem to a lost time, a harrowing requiem for the century's dead, and a sober meditation on history, consciousness, and art: here is a masterwork that confronts the meaning of the twentieth century with a directness and vividness that are without parallel.
