i am going to fill in holes and prime. should i apply a thin mixture of compound using a 1/2" nap roller and then paint over that or use one of the texture mix with the paint instead?
Yes you can apply drywall mud with a roller. You can thin it with water or even mix flat latex paint into it. I would experiment on some scrap wallboard to make sure it looks like you want it to. Once you have textured the wall you can then paint it with two coats of flat wallpaint.
I have textured walls as well, and I hate them! If we do skimming, is it likely that the thin coat of dry wall will crack? It seems it would take a great amount to cover the texture. I don't know why anyone ever did this to these walls. Also, sometimes when I touch the wall, it shocks me-Is that indicative of lead paint? Thank you!
Yea my walls are textured but covered with a layer of paint/gloss i dont think i can even scrap it off because i cant get any leverage/grip on the texture.....is the idea of breaking the walls fown and putting up new sheetrock a bad/expensive idea?????????
Recently, I allowed friends to help me texture my walls. I had spent hours and days smoothing and sanding, but they were going to need light texture. I finally had it primed and ready to texture and when I came back to see what they had done they had textured it so haphazardly and extremely thick. Some parts were even an inch and a half thick. They then decided to paint of the dry wall texture mud, making the sanding process all the more difficult if I wanted to smooth it out again. I'm lost. I know that it will take me hours of more sanding and grueling labor, but I guess I was hoping if anybody knew any tricks to make it easier. I'd be grateful for any suggestions

Well, readers. Here we are. It's November, the leaves are falling off the trees, and not a one of you has offered to come rake my yard. I slave on this blog for you, and you don't even offer to help me out once in a while. I guess I should expect it though. I've been pouring my soul out for you for two and a half years, and when I meet some of you, you don't even believe that I am the Gentle one. Whatever. Anyway, here's some stuff to do this weekend. Fair warning, the third one is a religious thing and I may say some things to offend. So, if you are unaware of how ignorant people are of Islam, maybe don't read that one. I'm not in the mood for a ton of comments about how I'm burning in hell. Trust me, I know I'm burning in Hell. We have a Lost Ogle suite reserved and we're all going to be roommates.
Anyway, here's your Friday Night in the Big Town.
November 9: Live on the Plaza 90's in November
Full disclosure, here, readers. Some of the last few things acquired for my wardrobe were flannel shirts and a pair of Doc Marten's. I love that fashion is cyclical, and also that my old pair of Doc Marten's from the sixth grade still fit so I'm like some kind of rich kid with two pairs now. If the Marisa who constantly listened to a Coolio cassette tape could only see me now, I think she would be proud.
Do you like the 90's? When you say the name of this event did you automatically start singing this song from Portlandia? Do you like dressing in 90's gear, trivia, art shows, photo booths, live music, food trucks, open houses, and the almost guaranteed possibility that you will get so soused at Saint's that you'll have to do a walk of shame the next day wearing 90's garb? Then please, get yourself to the Plaza District.
If I were to ask you what type of person lives in the house pictured above, there's a good chance you'd say either a drug addict, anarchist or weird man with prison tattoos who really wants people to know his street address. Any answer would be correct.
Via NewsOK:
Police found a pipe bomb and various chemicals used to make explosives Wednesday in a southwest Oklahoma City home after they arrested a man whose bond was revoked in another criminal case.
Roger Lee Sherman, 51, was arrested about 8 a.m. Capt. Dexter Nelson said police served a search warrant at his home at 2833 SW 79 last week and found firearms and drugs. Sherman has an ongoing criminal case involving numerous drug and weapons charges. Nelson said the judge in that case revoked Sherman's bond.
After police arrested Sherman on Wednesday at another location, they went back to his house to search again.
"On this second warrant, they found what they believe to be a pipe bomb in the house along with an assortment of hazardous chemicals," Nelson said.
Nelson said the chemicals found at the house could be used to make explosives. Firefighters and bomb squad technicians worked for hours to determine what the chemicals were and how to safely remove them from the house…
Sherman was being held Wednesday at the Oklahoma County jail on the revoked bond, but Nelson said numerous other charges likely will be filed based on the materials police found at his home Wednesday.
Seriously, what's up with all the street addresses on that property? There's one on each side of the curb and another hanging over what used to be a garage. You would think the Una Bomber fanboy would be a bit more discreet. Oh well, it least they didn't find human skin on the walls or a room in the back called "the Chamber."
Anyway, if you think the house looks bad, check out a pic of the dude who lived their making bombs and nightmares. Not surprisingly, he looks like what would happen if an extra from Sons of Anarchy mated with a fair carnie:
If you're one of the few people who admit to watching Channel 5 on a regular basis, you may have noticed a new pretty face in their lineup. The face belongs to Erielle Reshef. She's an Oklahoma City native and finishing up her first week at Oklahoma City's ABC affiliate. She comes to KOCO after being an anchor / reporter for IBA News in Isreal
From a November 5th update to her Facebook Page:
Hey Everyone,
Tomorrow I begin a new and exciting chapter in my career as Reporter/Anchor for KOCO Eyewitness News5 in OKC, OK.
I am unfortunately unable to make changes to this account due to the high volume of followers (of course I'm truly grateful for that) so please follow me on Twitter @ErielleReshef.
I plan to set up a new updated Facebook page ASAP. Be sure to stop by. I'll post on this site to let you know where to find me!
Wow. When it rains, it really does pour. About a month ago we landed Miss Wisconsin at KSBI, and now we got a hot Oklahoma Jewish girl at Channel 5. That's quiet a unique combination. It's like cheese latkes or something, which I hope is not offensive. I ran it by three of our Jewish Moles — Phil Bacharach, Ryan Drake and Mordechai Schechter (or as they are collectively called, the "Mews") — and two of them said it was a perfectly fine reference. One even mentioned that he'd like to take Erielle and some Matzah balls and do you know what with them. I don't even know what that means!
In addition to being attractive, there's a good chance Erielle is wealthy. Her dad is prominent OKC fertility guru Dr. Eli Reshef. He's the guy that helps insane people intentionally have children. Thanks to him, News 9 got a good year of solid material from Amanda Taylor's pregnancy. He is also one of those hardcore tort reform (a.k.a. corporate immunity) guys. Take that for what it's worth.
Unfortunately, Erielle is married. Or at least we think she still is. According to the OKC Friday, she's married to some corporate douche from San Francico named Daniel Hans Frankenstein. I'm not making that up. Daniel. Hans. Frankenstein. I heard they met when he saw Erielle throwing flowers in a pond. And wouldn't having "Hans" or "Frankenstein" as part of your legal name be a deal breaker?
"Thanks for the drink. What's your name?"
"Daniel Hans Frankenstein."
"Thanks again. Have a nice night."
Anyway, we'd like to welcome Erielle back to OKC. We hope she enjoys KOCO, wears a bikini and spends time at the lake. Also, lets also hope she's not rude and catty like Mean Dueweke. Here are some more pics for you:
As a loyal Ogle Mole, you're probably aware that our State Fair Photo Contest is one of this site's more popular features. This year alone, our three contest posts received about 30,000 pageviews and over 10,000 total votes. The winning pic was Beauty and the Corn Dog.
It looks like a local media organization has noticed our contest's popularity. Channel 9 launched their first State Fair Photo contest this year. Here are the details:
State Fair Photo Contest
News 9 and Bedford Camera & Video want to see your favorite fair photos. Send us your craziest, funniest, most unbelievable photo of the fair and you will be entered to win a gift certificate to Bedford Camera & Video!
How To Win
Win a $500, $200 or $100 gift card for creating the best picture at the state fair! Entries are now closed.
Bedford Camera and Video
Putting the customer first since 1974, and offering great prices, Bedford Camera & Video in Oklahoma City sells the best camera brands, all the accessories a shutterbug requires and offers photofinishing and digital imaging services including a convenient kiosk area for ordering prints, gifts and more. Official Rules
Yeah, I know what you're thinking? What type of crazy, funny, "most unbelievable" photos would News 9 viewers submit to this thing. Well let me tell you. The answer is "kids," and lots of them. I'd guesstimate that 80% of the contest entries are pics of kids just hanging out at the fair. That's cool if you're that kid's parent, grandparent or a sicko, but no one else wants to see a pic of your kid at the fair petting zoo. It's like someone took every annoying kid picture of your Facebook timeline and vomited them all over the News 9 website.
That being said, there were some photos of non-kids. I selected my 10 favorite photos, published them, and criticized them in the name of "fair" use (eh?) after the jump.
Remember, all these photos are real entries to the News 9 contest.
So, I was surfing the web for an image to accompany this post about brown water spewing out of faucets in El Reno. I first googled "brown water." After looking at a couple of pics I quickly closed my browser and stabbed my eyes with needles. After recovering from that, I googled "El Reno." This pic was the fourth Google image result:
Hey, it's a redneck El Reno girl in a swimsuit holding a sign in a blizzard! Yeeeeeehaw!!! She's kind of stripper/country hot, but that's still cool. Trust me, it sure beats looking at images of brown water.
Oddly enough, the pic is located at KOCO.com. It's one of those user submitted "Rick's Pics" or whatever it is now. The two KOCO user comments that accompany it make YouTube comments seem profound. They are "Girls gone wild is on another website" and "CRAZY girl!!!! You have lost your mind!!!"
Anyway, couple of thoughts:
1. During our next Winter Snowpocalypse, we need to have a "Hot Girls in Swimsuits in the Snow" photo contest. Who wouldn't like that? Maybe our friends at Patricia's can sponsor it.
2. I kind of forgot about this, but some lady in El Reno is having to deal with brown water. Sucks to be her.

Glenda Park
I can't say my partner didn't warn me. It's not that I didn't believe him. I believed, but did not know for myself, though I thought I knew.
Then the morning came when upon opening the pantry door I was confronted with black where white ought to be; movement where ought to be stillness.
Ants! Made frantic by the discovering beam of light from the door opening they ran in all directions. I was semi prepared for this sight (a) having been warned and (b) having had a previous similar discovery some days before but to a much lesser degree. Hence thinking I knew it all. On that first occasion a few ants were found near a bag of sugar, traces of which sugar were on the shelf. How smugly did I move to put a stop to their little game, transferring the sugar to a plastic container and checking the packet of shortbread biscuits for tiny marauders – none were found.
Each following morning my triumph continued as only one or two foolhardy ants were spotted by my vigilant eye and swept up by my merciless hand. So confident was I that chocolate chip cookies were left in their packet, the open top of which was (I thought securely) rolled over in the accustomed way of when I was back in temperate Timaru. Then came the above mentioned morning of rampant black movement and it was clear that this packet was the epicentre of the outlaws' activity. Picking it up with two fingers I conveyed it swiftly across space to the sink, liberally scattering little bodies to all surfaces in between including my hands and arms. May I advise you at this point, not to follow my example? Into the sink went the bag; all over the sink and bench top, under the microwave, up the wall, on to the windowsill went the escaping offenders. I didn't know where to start but figured I'd best forge on so went back to the pantry and its scene of spreading black dots, found another concentration in yet another open packet of sugary biscuits. This packet received the same treatment of transfer to the sink with the same result. They do say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result and perhaps this proves it. Turning on the tap on to the whole "shebang" wasn't terribly smart either as was learned later when scooping the soggy mess out of the sink.
Abandoning the largely futile attempt to stem the various lines of resistance issuing from the sink, I turned my attention to the pantry. Grabbing the "Di-San Pre-wash Stain Remover" from the laundry cupboard, my only form of chemical warfare, I began the spray and wipe operation which really only took up the next half hour. Or 40 minutes.
I resented this workout before breakfast. Feeling thoroughly rattled and seeing teeny fleeing shapes for the rest of the morning convinced me something had to be done and immediately. By the way, the shortbread? Not touched. Is this a good thing? I've chosen to think that the reason must be that they are of low sugar content, not that they lack all nutrition. It has nevertheless taken enjoyment out of them knowing as I bite into them that they're not considered worthy of an ant's desire.
Actions taken in the subsequent warfare included buying an appropriate biscuit storage container, a no-brainer it is to be admitted. The tour de force though was the purchase of Ant Rid and its application. Seriously, is it a fair contest? I couldn't help but feel a tinge of guilt as I put drops of this innocuous-looking ant-attractant upon tin foil scraps which I had laid across my combatants' little routes in and out of the pantry. Us human occupants of this dwelling made ourselves into giant fiends, looming with ghoulish interest over the spectacle of tiny creatures lured to their sweet death; marvelling at the way they gathered at the edges of the droplets to drink, much as animals do at a pool of water.
As if the ant invasion wasn't enough for one day, my partner also discovered a nasty and large cockroach, thankfully outside. Being immediately crushed by his shoe this produced a sickening mess which I insisted be not left on the patio but scraped into the bark garden and the patio flushed with water. What did I see not long after this, when I ventured over for a look (don't ask me why, I was drawn against my will), was my old antagonists the ants, hard at work cleaning up the cockroach remains. Horrid, but commendable effort, chaps.
As I said to my sister in our later telephone dissection of these events, "If it was me that died and fell in the garden, the ants would eat me". In this vision I both justify my murder of ants and also acknowledge that they do perform a necessary and welcome function. I'm a little conflicted towards the presence of ants. Good, bad, what are they? If I could just explain to them, I don't really want to kill them, would just prefer they leave my food alone. My sister passes on the interesting "fact", that ants and cockroaches too do not like bay leaves or cloves. This is information I wish I had possessed before my killing spree.
Now when I open my pantry door not only do I see biscuits protected in their sealed plastic tub, and white shelves unspoiled by moving black specks, but also I smell the faint fragrant scent of bay leaves and cloves. Once again I hold a belief in a fact, but do not know the truth of it, yet.

May 31, 2013The handling takes some time to get used too but once you do that perfect lap no other racing game beats it!! this game is so rewarding knowing that if you win its cause you earned it and if you loose then it was your fault. the graphics are amazing not quite as good as forza 4/horizon but very close. online is where i've had most my fun i can buy cars upgrade them and change decals plus the rival system works a lot like autolog from need for speed series, overall i am very happy with this game it takes some getting used to but its worth it.… Expand
May 31, 2013Great game. Enjoy the whole setup and story line. Not an authentic simulator, but a fun game with great graphics. If you enjoy racing games, you will want to pick this one up.
May 28, 2013Great driving physics, stunning visuals, no but that's ok a great successor to Grid 1.Cars look amazing.Codemasters have done it again.Waiting for Dirt 4
Jun 4, 2013So far, great game if you're looking for something to have fun with. The graphics were, for me at first mediocre, however once I cranked up the sharpness on the TV settings it was visually great, but didn't have the same detail as Forza or GT5. The damage was also pretty decent, however I think some of the car deformities can be a little unrealistic. The lack of a view is a little frustrating as it shows a lack of effort, but I'm not normally a heavy user of it so I'm not too bothered all in all.
The gameplay for me was a lot of fun. Each car has a different way of handling, however there are three main types which the cars are rated by: Grip, balanced and drift. Drift cars are extremely tail happy and the second you hit the brakes, will slide around the corner. Grip is a little more grippy, however not as much as I would have liked as they still have a tendency to start sliding when you hit the brake peddle. I surprisingly liked the handling however, even though I am not usually a fan of the more arcady styled handling.
The sound is fantastic and the story mode has started to pick up speed and get me engaged. Online is brilliant fun and for me the matchmaking has been fairly quick, with no in-game lag. The menu music has been irritating me a little, but that can be turned off so for me it's not a problem.
Overall I have had a brilliant time with this game up to now. The gameplay is fun as far as I'm concerned, but not everyone will be a fan of it. I'd say it's definitely more towards the arcade end of the scale. Although the handling can get a bit too arcady at times with the cars that are supposedly meant to 'grip' and the graphics can look a little blurry in places, it's done the job for me who is not usually fan of the less realistic games. Money well spent!… Expand
Feb 26, 2014GRID 2 is a fine racing game on the track, but it's a questionable package when taken in its entirety.
Jul 11, 2013I enjoyed Grid 2, but much like its predecessor, little about the experience was remarkable or noteworthy when compared to other racers. This is hardly a title that you'll need to drop what you're currently enjoying to check out, but it's something that I'd suggest purchasing when it drops in price. It's certainly worth a rental or demo, just to give you a taste of what Grid 2 brings to the table.
Jul 5, 2013All in all, Grid 2 is a beautiful game that does a spectacular job on the presentation and delivery for an authentic as you're likely to get racing experience. Enthusiasts will find the experience a little too thin for their lacking, but the mainstream audience will find much here to keep their attention if they are willing to put in that initial investment.

Letters to Juliet: Little poetry in ode to Bard

Letters to Juliet
(out of 4)
Starring Amanda Seyfried, Christopher Egan and Vanessa Redgrave. Directed by Gary Winick. 95 minutes. At major theatres. PG
An enchanted island, a vengeful ghost, cross-dressers — really, there are any number of story devices that William Shakespeare might have used to enliven Letters to Juliet, a listless romantic comedy that purports to honour one of the Bard's most famous characters.
That would be Juliet Capulet, a fictional resident of the real Italian town of Verona. Also real are Juliet's "secretaries," women who collect and answer the letters that lovelorn ladies send to Juliet in the hopes that Romeo's squeeze can somehow alleviate their woes.
In Letters to Juliet, this tradition comes to the attention of another fictional young woman: Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), a fact checker and aspiring writer for The New Yorker who has come to Verona on a pre-honeymoon trip.
Left on her own while her restaurateur-fiancé (Gael Garcia Bernal) searches for wine bargains, Sophie becomes fascinated with this volunteer brigade of advice-dispensers and takes it upon herself to craft a response to a letter that went unnoticed for 50 years.
Sophie's put in a potentially awkward position when the recipient of that missive returns from England to Verona, seeking the lover she regretfully fled so many years before. Claire (Vanessa Redgrave) is convinced that her true love Lorenzo still lives somewhere in Tuscany and Sophie is eager to aid in her search, much to the displeasure of Charlie (Christopher Egan), Claire's skeptical yet not unhandsome grandson.
That Sophie and Charlie take a firm dislike to each other is hardly a surprise. Indeed, their bickering — which, of course, soon gives way to softer words — is one of many aspects of the film that might have been improved had the Bard been around for a rewrite.
As it stands, Letters to Juliet offers little to viewers besides many trite truisms about the ways of the heart, some sumptuous views of the Tuscan countryside and a lovely performance by Redgrave. Still luminous at the age of 73, she has little trouble outshining and upstaging the younger leads. That her real-life husband —Italian screen legend Franco Nero — plays her dear Lorenzo is a sweet touch.
To be fair, Seyfried and Egan can't do much with their thinly conceived characters and sub-sitcom banter. And what with Sophie and Charlie's own romance being a foregone conclusion from the moment they trade their first barbs, it's a challenge to sit through the film's poorly contrived efforts to postpone their happy union.
Perhaps some helpful apothecary has a concoction that would allow moviegoers to sleep during Letters to Juliet's more tedious stretches and rouse them for Redgrave's appearances. Then again, a certain young Capulet would advise against experimenting with potions lest they lead to tragic misunderstandings.

Obama nominates ambassadors for key Egypt and Iraq posts
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Thursday he would nominate two career diplomats with extensive experience in the Middle East as ambassadors to Egypt and Iraq.
Robert Stephen Beecroft, who has been U.S. ambassador in Baghdad since 2012, was nominated for the Cairo post, the White House said. U.S. ties with Egypt, a key Middle East ally, have been strained since the Egyptian army's ouster of an elected president last year.
U.S. officials disclosed on Wednesday that the administration planned to nominate Beecroft.
Stuart Jones, who has been ambassador to Jordan since 2011, was picked as the new envoy to Iraq.
The Obama administration is concerned about spiraling violence in Iraq, where bloodshed has returned to levels not seen since the height of the sectarian conflict that followed the U.S-led invasion in 2003.
Both nominations are subject to Senate confirmation.

I booked only on the day of travel and wanted something cheap and pleasant as I was attending a two-day conference in central London which incorporated a Gala dinner, so essentially B&B with late night return. Close to the M1 motorway and simple to find. Golders Green tube station is at the top of the road, just 3 minutes walk away.
Cost of taxi back to hotel from central London after the tube had closed, a rip-off at £35 (to us Northerners), but of course that had nothing to do with the hotel.
Great location, 6 tube stops from Euston station,pleasant surrounding. Cleanliness. Excellent facilities incl. iron in every room and continental power sockets. Fast broadband. Decent breakfast. Helpful and friendly staff.
Good price and location, breakfast was ok as long as you like bread, cake etc. Bathroom was relatively new, and clean, however quite small, a large person would struggle to get in and out the shower due to the door arrangement.
Bed was a real let down, stayed in room 8 or 9 and the bed really needs replacing. There was airconditioning mounted on the wall but no controller for it, when you opened the windows it was quite noisy and there was no way of locking them open to allow ventilation in the day
Quiet location and comfortable bed. Reasonable breakfast.
Rather 'compact room' with just enough room to walk pass the bed. But this is not surprising with the number of rooms they have packed into this suburban house! Not particularly well sound proofed.
Bath and room was good, everything you need and good quality. Breakfast also OK
At the reception wasn't friendly with me. It was strange
Nice staff Couple of steps to the tube station Clean room
Very small toilet
clean (although not perfect) and comfort rooms. breakfast was good, has everything you need. good wifi. fridge in a room was great to keep your stuff.
small bathroom
This is a very well placed property, close to a wheelchair friendly Tube Station with service to central London. The facilities are very good and the staff and breakfast are both very good also. Parking is adequate but tight in an extremely difficult place to find overnight parking.
A little noisy in our street front room.
Silent place
Employees atitude
Most things including great breakfast buffet and being able to open the bedroom window to an obvious fire escape
Friendly staff, 2 min walk to Golders Green tube station, very tiny but very clean room. I would stay here again.
It would have been better if the room was bigger to keep my suitcase open..
A small, nice, clean place very close to the underground. A very good 'value for money' place and I would certainly book there again.
The room was clean, comfortable and recently refurbished.
The Hotel Management desperately need to be Trained in Customer Service. Charging extra fees and not budging on pointless/ strict hotel policies will only mean that customers will NOT return, as I am sure I won't. The hollow satisfaction of few £, only once, can not compare with building a relationship with a customer that has potential to become a regular customer. After all it's the Hotel's Loss.
Staff very helpful especially in view of the parking Breakfast very good. Good choice and availability. Staff very pleasant at breakfast. Room small but sufficient. Big enough for what I wanted but would be a little too cosy for two. Very comfortable bed. Didn't want to get up. Very clean. Congrats to cleaning crew.
Booking.com did not make it clear until the bottom of the booking that parking needed to be reserved. I missed it and when I got to the hotel there was no parking available. The receptionist was very helpful and sorted me out but it could have been tricky.
Service Mind !!! Too much unfriendly !!! Too expensive for using very small room and not so close to the center of London !!!
The room was clean.
When we came in to check in ,the person at the registration area was on the phone and he let us wait for ages which was very annoying!
Neat environment.very endearing interior .i love the location.
Still same London small sizes
The service was good, the personal was friendly. Room had everithing you need(even a tv) and was clean. Location, even though not in the center, still rather good because it's 2 minutes away from underground and large bus station. You can get to the center in 15-20 minutes by underground or in 30 minutes by great red 2-floor bus. Breakfast was simple but good enough, you can get scrumbled or hard-boiled eggs, some fruits, toasts, juice and tea or coffee
The room was under the roof and realy tiny. And by tiny i mean like 8 square meters including bathroom(yep, it still had a prety good bathroom, like 2.5 meters or so). It may seem like a prison cell by its size. But still, it had all you may need during your stay.
Location and staff
room too small
Clean rooms, Comfy beds, Near underground station,Golders Green, Fridge in room.
Some electrical sockets had come away from walls. Air conditioning unit was not working. You need to be aware of the last underground train if returning late at night,they finished just before midnight when we stayed and its not within walking distance from central London. However there are night buses.
Breakfast was good, nice and warm ambiance. location was excellent, close to underground and Bus stand and right in the market.
size of room and bathroom was very small. though all facilities were there

Where they do that at???
Michigan apparently…
According to ABCNews:
People say politicians can't be trusted, but what about when it comes to an eight-time felon running for public office? Brian Banks, 35, convicted of writing bad checks and credit card fraud, is vying for Michigan's 1st House District this November.
The Democrat, whose last conviction for fraud-related charges was eight years ago, won a close primary election. Banks, who did not have to face an incumbent, beat four other Democratic opponents by a margin of only 100 votes. He'll face Dan Schulte, a Republican and Grosse Pointe Shores two-term city councilman with no criminal record.
Schulte tells ABC News of his opponent's record, "I don't think it's a good thing, that's for sure….I was surprised that a felon could even run for legislature in state of Michigan, I don't think it should be allowed."
Banks' first arrest came in 1998 at age 22.The conviction resulted in a misdemeanor for passing bad checks. The following year, he was arrested again and pled guilty to three counts of credit card fraud in addition to one count of check fraud. Banks, who has served jail time for writing bad checks, has since been convicted of passing bad checks a total of eight times in several metro Detroit cities.
Schulte says that he is no stranger to forgiveness but the case of Brian Banks is unusual. "If you do something wrong and you show that you've turned a corner then you absolutely should be given another chance but when he did something wrong eight times and when he is still doing things wrong, that doesn't show that he is sorry at all."
Says Banks about his shady past:
"Yes, I've made many poor decisions, and yes, I have a record, but that's exactly what it is, my past."
You're gonna have to do a LOT better than that if you want to get elected to state office bruh.
Schulte went in even further when talking about Banks' character upon finding out that he won the primary vote:
"I was surprised because I thought the other candidates just appeared to be nicer people." Schulte said. "Banks came off pretty cocky, he seemed very arrogant and he acted like expects to win."
Schulte tells ABC News that even if he wasn't running, he wouldn't want Banks to win. "If he won he would be my state representative and even if I wasn't running, Banks isn't someone that I would want to represent me or my district."
Could you, in good conscious, vote for a 8-time felon even if he said he had "changed his ways"???

CHICAGO – "Drinking Buddies" director Joe Swanberg's latest release of the same star wattage is "Happy Christmas," an even lower-fi story than the Olivia Wilde beer comedy, steered even more by the casting that it was able to assemble. However, with this movie Swanberg doesn't so much worry about having a story that could be confused with a more mainstream romantic comedy if it were to have a bigger budget.
Screenplay Surfaces Online For Oscar-Worthy 'There Will Be Blood' With Daniel Day-Lewis
"There Will Be Blood" is among the best films of 2007. Period. An Oscar-worthy performance by Daniel Day-Lewis helps to make this picture Oscar worthy in its own right.

A haunting supporting performance by Paul Dano ("Little Miss Sunshine," "The Girl Next Door") isn't one you'll soon forget, too.
Aside from his 2005 work in "The Ballad of Jack and Rose," we last saw Day-Lewis in film all the way back in 2002 for his gritty "Gangs of New York" performance.
"There Will Be Blood".
Photo credit: IMDb
"There Will Be Blood" is as worthy as any for him to bring the familiar character out of hibernation.
While you'd be remiss not to see this in theaters, you can read now why director Paul Thomas Anderson (who adapted the film's screenplay from the Upton Sinclair novel "Oil!") deserves your attention.

Anderson also directed "Punch-Drunk Love" and "Magnolia". The full screenplay is below. Warning: This is a thorough spoiler alert.
I downloaded this screenplay from this Paramount Vantage link.

Though the film only opened in limited New York City and Los Angeles theaters on Dec. 26, it will expand in Jan. 2008. Before that, 14 cities are being treated to a midnight sneak screening on Dec. 29.

They seem to have recycled the top half of their page from a broken '80s maze game haunted by the ghost of someone who perished in a bizarre arcade eye-gouging incident, and now this vengeful spirit hates the living and the sighted. Already stocked with "Super Attack Pea," "Turquoise Soccer Ball," "hotdog" and "Avril Lavigne," all rendered in vaguely recognizable form, the site will only improve as it continues to grant requests like "two words...

I probably stood there for a full minute appreciating amenities like a nice fluffy bed, a tv, warm water, carpeted floors and a bath tub. I then went to the buffet line and stuffed myself silly. The entire hotel staff was Filipino and were very friendly to me after I started chatting with me. I ...

This turned out to be a good find. The room we found had slightly more comfortable lounge seats (a bit like pool lounges) and was dark. Apart from the fact some ignorant people kept leaving the door open it was actually fairly quiet. Kayla managed to get a good sleep and I lay back and relaxed listening my ipod.

Why one restaurant succeeds, another fails with South Lake Union crowd
Send this to a friend
- Glenn Drosendahl
- Contributing Writer- Puget Sound Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
One restaurant closes after just 10 months, while one of its closest neighbors prospers. Both have attractive spaces and make an effort to serve good food. So what gives?
It turns out that survival is tricky in Seattle's South Lake Union -- especially now, when the neighborhood is overwhelmingly occupied by Amazon.com workers, and especially around company headquarters on Terry Avenue, a street chock full of fledgling restaurants.
The challenges: Lunch times are crazy busy, competition (including food trucks) is intense and the area pretty much empties immediately after happy hour.
The restaurant that closed last week was Cal's Classic American Kitchen, the second venture by a small startup company headed by former Ram co-owner Jeff Chandler.
"We don't have the resources to continue to operate it," Chandler said via email. "We had an opportunity to sell our space to a well-known Seattle restaurant group that will be releasing plans for the site here shortly."
Meanwhile, less than a block away, Cactus is doing so well after opening more than 18 months ago that owners Bret and Marc Chatalas have changed their idea of what kind of location works for them.
Their first three Cactus locations – Kirkland, Seattle's Madison Park, and Seattle's Alki Beach – all were in residential areas close to water. The South Lake Union restaurant convinced them that a Cactus could succeed in a business area. They opened Cactus No. 5 on June 24 in Bellevue Square.
"We always kind of valued being near the water," Bret Chatalas said, "but being in more of a business district worked really well for us (at South Lake Union)."

New Mexico State University has launched a food safety blog, where people can go to see the latest hazardous food recalls or food safety alerts issued by the federal government.
The Food Safety and Protection blog will post federal food safety alerts for New Mexico, Texas, Arizona and Colorado, NMSU said.
The blog is a joint effort between the Southwest Border Food Safety and Defense Center at NMSU and the New Mexico Food Protection Alliance.
"This site will give the food protection alliances a way to communicate vital information to help them to inform their neighbors of any food safety situations," said Sonja Koukel, a community and environmental health specialist with NMSU's Extension Family and Consumer Sciences department.
