A Yuletide meal at an expensive restaurant is disturbed when a woman starts screaming. 'My son's choking! ' she cries. 'He's swallowed the sixpence in the Christmas pudding! Please, anyone – help!'
Without speaking, a man stands up at a nearby table, and walks over nonchalantly. Smiling pleasantly, he grips the boy by the gonads and squeezes: the boy coughs, and out pops the coin.
'Thank you so much!' beams the relieved mother. 'Are you a paramedic?'
'No,' replied the man, 'I work for the Inland Revenue.'

Managing your network in the era of the 'internet of everything'
Over recent years, network devices have evolved way beyond their traditional role of just 'directing traffic'. This whitepaper argues that the convergence of different technologies within the same device calls for new thinking about network management. • The introduction of new devices and advanced infrastructure has made the work of enterprise network management teams more complex • Servers, storage, operating systems and applications were the responsibility of other teams, but thanks to the converged infrastructure and new technologies, the roles of teams are blurring • Getting and keeping today's application performance systems optimally tuned calls for high levels of network, hardware, software and application skills

Christine asked we start the threads tonight. I think we set a new record with our last post lol. Probably time for a new thread before our old one bring down the system!
I think most of us are all trying now so just going to call it TTC chat again but those waiting of course feel free to post as normal!

CD5 for me... still spotting a little... and since I don't have a normal anything... anyhow, sorry if it's TMI but I am horny as all get out... maybe it's the shift from the lack of hormones.

Christine- Sorry about AF
Mandy- what a mean trick of AF to play on you. That happens to me every cycle since I had Grey. Weird!
Kate- hope you're taking advantage of the unexpected side effect! Heehee
AFM- I'm having a bad couple of days. I woke up feeling crummy yesterday, had a long school day, then I found out a friend (former colleague) and her 3 children (1 was my student years ago) were murdered. The whole thing is so horrifying and shocking. My heart aches and I can't stop reading news articles and facebook comments, trying to figure out a why. There just isn't a why... Its a horrible thing that happened. I am praying because although I liked and very much admired my friend and thought highly of her sweet children (at least of the two I knew) I know my own heartbreak is nothing compared to their family and close friends. I just wish I wasn't so far away and could hug our friends and grieve with them.

Caroline Rules
Will I Regret Not Having More Children?
As fate would have it, I wasn't pregnant, but I would have accepted and loved this child with all my heart. On the flip side, I was relieved! This made the decision to stop at three children very clear to me.
So my answer to you is that both you and your husband should look clearly at the pros and cons of expanding your family. Look inside yourself and really ask yourself what you want. Don't let your decision be affected by outside influences, such as your friends, your mother-in-law or your boss. There will never be a solid yes-or-no answer, so just be comfortable with whatever choice you ultimately make.
Do you have a question for Caroline? Send it to email@example.com and it may be selected for an upcoming column!

MS are playing a long game here, a several years long game. They can't compete with Android or iOS yet, and current apps frankly work better on Win 7, but they are betting on their dominant position to make TIFKAM the GUI people use at work, and the one they see in high street PC vendors over the next few years.
Personally I don't think it *deserves* to work, because they have put the GUI ahead of the applications (you know, the thingies most people actually use a computer for). But I fear it *may* work, due to their close, almost incestuous relationships with corporate/retail customers. Like IBM in the '70s, no-one will get fired for buying MS.

Microsoft halves Surface RT production orders - report
Re: And to think they broke a nice, functional desktop interface for this.
But it's the nature of the beast. The MS business model requires users to constantly "upgrade" (am I the only one to still use keyboard shortcuts because I can dig them out of my memory before I can find what I want in the &!@#ing ribbon?) Incremental change (sometime called "improvement") just won't persuade us to buy the same things again these days, so we have to be *made* to want completely new things every few years.
The lesson for MS is that unless they change that business model, they must eventually be history. Perhaps not this time, but surely one time soon.

Traders condemn new parking charges in Cumbrian town
Last updated at 11:59, Thursday, 24 July 2014
Traders in Whitehaven have condemned plans to charge £1.80 an hour to park on six town centre streets.
Parking meters will be introduced, with Lowther Street, Market Place, Queen Street, Duke Street, James Street and Church Street proposed as locations.
Businesses say it will "kill trade" and one trader is asking councillors to have the "courage of their convictions" and stand up for the town.
Details of the streets, charges and restrictions in Whitehaven will be confirmed at Cumbria County Council's Copeland Local Committee tomorrow.
Gerard Richardson, of Richardson's of Whitehaven, said: "If money had been managed in the right way for years the county would not be introducing these charges now.
"People are used to these parking spaces being free. The reality is that if people nip into town they won't want to pay £1.80 per hour for parking. If this is being looked at by county councillors from Copeland, they need to stand up for this area. It's down to our councillors to have the courage of their convictions."
Whitehaven is one of 11 towns across Cumbria to have the new charges introduced by the county council. The authority, which is facing severe spending cuts, calculates on-street parking county-wide will generate £350,000 in the first year and £700,000 afterwards.
It says it aims to reduce congestion levels by encouraging long-term parkers to use off-street car parks, "thereby maximising the turnover of existing on-street car parking".
But Allan Mossop, of West Cumbria's Federation of Small Businesses, said: "We [the FSB] are totally against it. We are fighting to that end county-wide. We hope the council will make alterations to the proposals."
Andrew McDowell, of Market Place Post Office, said: "It will kill trade. It's a cheap way of getting revenue but it will hit shoppers and shopkeepers hard. It's a big charge."
Michael Moon, of Michael Moon's Bookshop, said: "They might as well close Whitehaven and tell people to go elsewhere. I would imagine that 50 per cent of businesses will pack up or think about leaving.
"We should be congratulating people on finding Whitehaven and shopping here, not putting them off."
The proposals would see hourly on-street parking charges of £1.80 – 30p more than off-street parking charges set by Copeland Council. As a comparison, proposed charges for on-street parking in Keswick are £1.40 per hour.
Motorists are set to face further parking problems as fewer spaces will be available with the influx of 1,000 workers into Albion Square.
The multi-storey car park will be reserved for permit holders only during the week. People who use the facility on a casual basis and want to pay on the day will have to find elsewhere to park.
Heated debates have been held across the county by councillors on the proposed charges. At Allerdale's local committee meeting last week, members refused to approve plans.

Favorite brand of Mexican hot chocolate?
On a side note, what's everyone's favorite brand of Mexican hot chocolate. The only thing I've really found locally is Ibarra, which is tasty, but very, very difficult to break apart.
Here in Patzcuaro we have a handmade chocolate tablet called Amargo. It's excellent.
Chopping the chocolate on a cutting board is easier that breaking it.
We really like Ibarra. If you have a heavy chef's knife, use steady pressure and the little triangles should come apart. I'm interested to hear about other brands, though!
Mexican tablet chocolate is really hard, I don't think there's any way around that. I also like 2 scored pieces for my mug of hot chocolate, so, breaking the large tablet into 4ths works well, and is relativley easy to do. Ibarra's flavor is the best, IMHO. I bought Abuleta, and there's a slight hint of flavor i'm not fond of. I know, I should give it another chance- that way I can pin-point my issue with it. Carlos V is pretty good, as well.
re: Honeychan
Have you tried microwaving it on a very low setting? Trial and error, since you can burn it if you have it in too long or too high, but that usually softens it up enough for me.
Ibarra is widely available and very good. I prefer it to Abuelita. Another brand that I've found readily and that I like is Popular (pronounced in Spanish pop--oo--LAHR, or close to that). Popular is sold in thin slabs about the size of a large Hersey's bar and is easier to cut.
You can also buy a more boutiqey Mexican chocolate through Zingerman's of Ann Arbor, MI. Some Americano in Oaxaca is mixing it up and selling it from what I understand.
The tablets shouldn't be too hard to slice with a good knife... and if they aren't too old. Find a market with lots of turnover. Of the mainstream, industrial brands... Ibarra, Abuelita etc., all mediocre. The best of the lot would be Mayordomo from Oaxaca (they also make decent moles).
But no self respecting, chocolate foodie in Southern Mexico (the cradle of chocolate) would drink the tablet stuff... it must be made from whole cacao beans.
Of course... I am not willing to put in so many hours & hard physical labor for a morning cup of xocolatl... so my short cut, for higher quality using readily available ingredients in the U.S.:
> quality cacao powder such as Vahlrona or similar brand
> or a decent baking chocolate bar
> 70% + chocolate bar
> high quality dark chocolate chips
Mix the chocolate with water... bring to an almost boil, simmer. Add your preferred combination of spices (high quality vanilla from Veracruz, true cinammon sticks, dried chile peppers, allspice etc.,)... sweeten to taste & voila.
If you want to recreat the Abuelita / Ibarra flavors well then you need milk, sugar & cinammon. I like making a more traditional hot chocolate with good vanilla & just enough sugar so that it isn't excessively bitter. Another variation I like is the just add Xtabentun (Mayan honey annissette liquer).
I found this website ...looks interesting ... i'll place and order and give an update in the next two weeks ... http://www.kakawachocolates.com/index...
From the website:
Elixirs are divided into two categories:
• Mesoamerican drinking chocolate and
• Historic European, Jeffersonian American and Oaxacan Drinking Chocolate.
Each wafer/ball makes a 6 to 7 oz demitasse drink. These are sold in packages of 3 and come with preparation instructions and a brief history description. These spiced chocolate wafers/balls make a rich, strong, bittersweet, aromatic and spicy elixir that is unlike any hot chocolate drink available commercially. They are made with a large portion of very flavorful high quality full chocolate and contain spices, herbs, nuts, vanilla and other natural flavorings in various combinations. They are sweetened with evaporated cane sugar or raw, unprocessed cane sugar, which gives the chocolate drink an authentic flavor. They are all non-dairy, which is traditional. One grates or shaves the wafer/ball into hot water to make the chocolate drink.
re: lilygirl
I am quite impressed by that site. They beat me to the concept.

Hey guys, I am fairly new to HBing, but I have done about 6 brews already so I am learning quickly. SWMBO likes my beers, but she doesn't like hoppy beers like I do. My question is, she has asked me to make her something she can enjoy, and I made her a mexican style Coopers kit (no hops), but I would like to also start some else to keep her going for a while. What is a good extract kit (not into AG yet) that I could use with WLP041 yeast I have in the fridge? Thanks in advance for any SWMBO pacifing ideas!

Orfy's Mild would be a good choice. It's a Dark Mild with a hint of chocolate.

The Ecosystem Marketplace's Forest Carbon News Tracking Terrestrial Carbon
—The Ecosystem Marketplace Team
If you have comments or would like to submit news stories, write to us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Forest Trends' Fundraising Challenge
Forest Trends' work doesn't grow on trees – we rely on readers' generosity to help keep them standing.
Now through December 5, (and for the cost of a typical lunch!), donations to Forest Trends' Crowdrise campaign could leverage up to $1 million in matching awards through the Skoll Foundation's Social Entrepreneurship Challenge. Help Forest Trends expand our vital services to communities and experts on the front lines of ecosystem conservation. $10 will go a long way!
In recent months the Nature Conservancy and Blue Source launched Working Woodlands, a model forest conservation program that aims to protect forests and fight climate change through market-based incentives that reward landowners demonstrating exceptional forest management practices. Designed to eliminate out-of-pocket, up-front costs for landowners, the program works on two fronts: the Conservancy will provide services for FSC certification, and Blue Source will provide financing for carbon credit development. The resulting offsets will be added to Blue Source's portfolio and marketed to companies interested in purchasing forest carbon credits to help manage their net greenhouse gas emissions.
To learn more about Working Woodlands, click here.
This briefing paper provides a summary of the recent REDD-plus negotiations in Bangkok. The briefing paper then considers the resumed seventh session of the Ad Hoc Working Group on Long-term Cooperative Action under the Convention (AWG-LCA7) in Barcelona, followed by a section on references to REDD-plus in non papers that deal with other issues than REDD-plus. In conclusion the briefing paper provides a short section on the resumed ninth session of the Ad Hoc Working Group on Further Commitments for Annex I Parties under the Kyoto Protocol (AWG-KP9) in Barcelona.

The Forest Carbon Portal provides relevant daily news, a bi-weekly news brief, feature articles, a calendar of events, a searchable member directory, a jobs board, a library of tools and resources. The Portal also includes the Forest Carbon Project Inventory, an international database of projects including those in the pipeline. Projects are described with consistent 'nutrition labels' and allow viewers to contact project developers.
Ecosystem Marketplace is a project of Forest Trends, a tax-exempt corporation under Section 501(c)3.

Pioneer. Congressman. Martyr of the Alamo. King of the Wild Frontier. As with all great legends, Davy Crockett's has been retold many times. Over the years, he has been repeatedly reinvented by historians and popular storytellers. In fact, one could argue that there are three distinct Crocketts: the real David as he was before he became famous; the celebrity politician whose backwoods image Crockett himself created, then lost control of; and the mythic Davy we know today. In the road-trip tradition of Sarah Vowell and Tony Horwitz, Bob Thompson follows Crockett's footsteps from the Tennessee river valley where he was born, to Washington, where he served three terms in Congress, and on to Texas and the gates of the Alamo, seeking out those who know, love and are still willing to fight over Davy's life and legacy. Born on a Mountaintop will be more than just a bold new biography of one of the great American heroes. Thompson's rich mix of scholarship, reportage, humor, and exploration of modern Crockett landscapes will bring Davy Crockett's impact on the American imagination vividly to life.

Good but nothing extraordinary

Purchased at iHerb
Don't know why everyone here says it's pink. It's not pink. And not coral either. On me it looks nude - peachy beige colour. Or brown with golden shimmer. Glides on smooth and nice. What I didn't really like - toooooo much shimmer in it. When the colour wears off (and its very fast) you get only shimmer on your lips. The packaging is cheap, the bullet won't go back, so twist up a tiny amount only! I didn't like the smell, but it disappears at once. And - it's veeeeery small! All in all - nice but I'll try something else next time.
Not what I hoped for

It has a scent that reminds me of something I had when I was a kid. It's not a good scent. Too sweet and sickening smell. The color is not coral, it is darker, more maroon. Otherwise it works OK for everyday use, but it wears off quite fast unfortunately.

I have pale lips and was hoping for a natural looking pink flush. But this color is too pale and shimmering and is not pink enough. I find the scent too overpowering. The 2 stars are for the vegan and cruelty-free formula.

Second Helpings: Birrieria Zaragoza
New menu items?! Noooooooo
I've long been a fan of Birrieria Zaragoza on Pulaski and their more recent outpost on Lake Street in Melrose Park. I am infatuated with their stewed goat, and I think it's kind of cool that this one meat dish is pretty much all they serve.
Sitting down to lunch with Norma Zaragoza last week, she announced that they had some "new menu items."
An electric jolt of fear ran down my spine: Please, oh please, I thought, don't stray from the basic "just birria" menu of the past. I've very much enjoyed the fact that this place makes basically the one thing – slow-cooked goat – and so I sat in freezing fear that Norma would announce that now they'd also be serving pizza puffs, Chicago hot dogs or some other sop to the masses that would dilute the purity of their current offerings.
Apparently, owner John Zaragoza's brother was visiting the restaurant one day, and "he had a taste for goat, but he also was in the mood for a quesadilla," Chihuahua cheese warmed in tortillas. So the kitchen made him kind of a "mini-goat pizza," with both goat meat and cheese between two tortillas. When John's brother was served this innovative Mexican sandwich, another guy sitting at the counter said, "Hey, I want one of those, too." Thus a new menu item was born. We had one; it was excellent, and I'm now okay with this menu addition.
For lunch, we had the usual and pretty much the only thing they serve here: goat meat in a plate of highly flavorful consomme. I'm touched that whenever I visit the Zaragozas, they always honor me with La Pistola, the curved goat bone that looks kind of like a handgun and is the preferred macho menu item. The meat near the bone is so soft, and the outside of the meat beautifully crusted with spice and drier meat.
There's a practice among some food enthusiasts to carefully watch for what the restaurant staff is eating…and then get some of that. We asked Norma what the staff was eating that day and she brought us out some of the staff lunch: a complex mole over chicken. "We cook it for two days," said Norma, and although I liked it, I'd hate—as I said – to see Zaragoza serve any main courses but goat. Goat doesn't get the attention it deserves, and the Zaragoza family does goat right.
As the weather gets cooler, a big platter of roasted goat seems more and more appealing. This is one delicious lunch…and make sure if you stop by, come early: Birrieria Zaragoza closes at 7PM most days.

I have been studying the films of the unfolding Hunger Games saga as a revealingly successful effort to reflect the attitudes and opinions of the teenagers and young adults in their target audience. And, in a manner that is both fascinating and annoying, this new film offers additional insights into the minds of America's future leaders.

2014: A Grand Ole Odyssey: A Review of Interstellar
It requires considerable courage to make a film that, as I will argue, undertakes to both emulate and refute 2001: A Space Odyssey; and while I ultimately found its argument unpersuasive, the film is still provocative and, one might say, intelligently misguided in ways that are unfortunately rare in today's filmmaking marketplace.

"A Hunger for Games?": A Review of The Maze Runner
The Maze Runner, as one hardly needs to say about any major film that achieves wide release, is a fast-paced, involving adventure with excellent special effects, and there are even hints of an imperfectly realized effort to achieve a sort of profundity not found in the novel.

'A Black-and-White Movie, in More Ways Than One': A Review of The Giver
While one can complain at length about the ways that the film fails to do justice to Lowry's novel, published for readers in 1993, a film adaptation also has to be considered on its own terms, as an original creation designed for viewers in 2014. And, as it turns out, the film actually has some interesting things to say about the young people who were undoubtedly envisioned as its major audience.

Most of my grass cuttings go to the green-waste collection. Having seen the efforts that went into trying to compost Bowling green cuttings and the failure there of, it took a lot of effort to remove years of black sticky waste and nothing would grow where it had been.If there is plenty of woody or plant material I mix in a thin layer of grass cutting but there is too much to add it all, I also add some uric acid, the human kind collected in a bottle in the garage with the doors shut if you do not want to be arrested. Mix that with a watering can of water and sprinkle it on the compost as you add to the pile. Nitrogen is part of all fertiliser whatever the mix and too much of any of it will burn or kill your plants. It greens up the plants often to the detriment of the plant flowering or fruiting, it will make the plant green and soft. Tomato fertiliser is a mix of Nitrogen Urea Phosphorus and Potassium (Potash) NPK.You need a balance of feed to suit the plant and what it is actually doing, like your own diet a good mix little but often is better than stuffing your gut.If you grow peas beans and other nitrogen producing roots then you have a fertile area for next years rotation crop.
Zoomer welcome home and yes it has rained here for two weeks plus a couple more months just for luck. Our "Rain" posted photo's of her new swimming pool, I think it used to be the road to her house, if you had come to Teesside you would have needed a DUK vehicle, a driver on the ring road thought a pool under the blue bridge was OK and found himself up to his roof. Hartlepool was cut off for a while and I had a pond complete with ducks in the garden I am sure I never put in and I live on a hill.And to think Zoomer you missed all the excitement!!!Today the weather forecaste is solid rain yet we have sunshine and blue sky it was very warm when I put the bins out. The grass is as high as an elephants tail, I can hear growls and grunts in there so better fix a cannon to the lawn mower.Having spent time where the Date Palms grow and discovered the Oasis is not the pristine place complete with maidens in filmy clothes that we saw on the films, I can tell you they take an awful long time to grow and come to fruit, don't hold your breathe.
"Rain" I was on Tospots car park after shopping, lit up with lovely warm sunshine surrounded by the blackest clouds especially over towards the Cleveland Hills and rain drops were falling on my head. It was warm rain and stopped until a while back when we got a shower followed by more sun through the cloud.According to the local weather we are supposed to get continuous rain today and this weather tomorrow, one day they will get it right.
Pears do not need much pruning in the first early years apart from normal leader tipping to give better growth and in the direction you want to go. They are usually two or three years old when bought and will be already partly trained.We had pear trees trained to a West facing wall in a sheltered garden that is the North East of England although the experts say they are no good North of the Trent, they fruited well for us but where already old when I remember them.Try the RHS on line for pruning tips.
"Rain" Osteospermum are perennial, a woody base and will last a year or so.They do not like rich soil but do need sun and well drained soil (constant rain and flooded gardens are our then), take cutting of none flowering shoots in midsummer and bring on in the usual way, we may get some summer for them to grow next year and yes they do open and close with sun or shade.Plants will find a way to the sun. Next door to me put in some Japanese Anemmone some 20 years ago on a North facing fence to my drive. It gradually grew through into my South facing side which was quite arid and stony but it thrived now I have a long clump of it along the drive and he has none.
Teesside "WE HAVE SUN" "err no we have not" "Oh yes we have" oh for goodness sake make your mind up, in or out?? There are some heavy clouds up there and the sun is popping through the holes in it, I need to dry out the lawns a bit to cut them tomorrow.Although it rained all day yesterday the sun came out for me when the Grandchildren arrived for the evening meal, we all sat at the table chatting with them clearing all the tureens, my Daughter asked how I get it all to the table so hot, she does not yet understand cooking is an art you have to concentrate not go off on face book and forget it. Wonder if the sun now out again is here to stay, well ask a silly question?
Geoff is right, I own all the south fence and half of the west fence, the north fence is owned by my neighbour who asked me to remove the hanging pots from it. I did without argument, six months later it blew down in a storm and he asked me to go half. I will leave you to imagine my answer.It would be better to put in some four by four posts at intervals and run trestle or wires, this will give you the freedom to hang whatever you wish on your own posts in your own ground.

I do not know where women get those idea's.Teesside today "Its raining, raining in my heart, on my head, on my garden and on my spirit which is dragging on the ground. It makes you want to turn to a single malt spirit even though we will not see the sun anywhere near a yard arm?""Grrrrr".

FloBear, now I know if a Lady holds a door for me it is you, we could talk about the garden.Trouble is we get so used to doors opening for us I walked into one the other day expecting it to open, luckily my nose acts as a bumper.
Some of my Heuchera are very old species from my Fathers garden they like mainly shade and have deep red spikes. Some of the dark leaved ones like semi shade, they do grow larger and spread more quickly.The older ones have a tendency to push the crowns out of the ground so I mulch them, after two or three years divide them putting them deeper into the ground.They can suffer from leafy gall.

Michigan Many Republican members of the Michigan House of Representatives have managed to fend off challengers in Tuesday's elections.
Longtime U.S. Rep. Fred Upton defeated a nurse from Dowagiac in the 6th District GOP primary in southwestern Michigan.
The 61-year-old Upton of St. Joseph defeated 46-year-old Jim Bussler in Tuesday's primary. Upton has been in the House since 1987 and was widely considered a shoo-in to win the primary.
Before his election to Congress, Upton was director of legislative affairs in Office of Management and Budget from 1981 to 1986. He was an aide to U.S. Rep. David Stockman from 1975 to 1981.
He now faces Democrat Paul Clements in the November election. Clements is a political science professor at Western Michigan University.
In other races, incumbent Dave Pagel beat challenger Jim Walker for Michigan's 78th District for State Representative.
Also, incumbent Al Pscholka won the republican nominee spot against Cindy Duran in the race for State Representative in the 79th District.

Left Justified: What happened? No vote on a sure bet
By Stanley Campbell
We thank god that no vote was taken on Illinois Senate Bill 737, the massive expansion of gambling that went before the Illinois House just two weeks ago. All bills that did not pass by the deadline can no longer be called for a vote. But it's a sure bet the pro-gamblers will try again this year (right, Dave Syverson?).
Rockford Urban Ministries (RUM) thanks all of you for your prayers and persistence in making phone calls to legislators and the governor, writing letters to the editor and for everything you did. It was a miracle, you know. It always is when the rich can't take advantage of the poor.
I asked Anita Bedell of the Illinois Church Action on Alcohol & Addiction Problems (ILCAAAP) why it did not pass. She has been the lone lobbyist fighting gambling interests in the state for the last 15 years. She said:
"We give God the honor and glory for the victory. The bill (which had passed the Illinois Senate with the support of our own state Sen. Dave Syverson (R) just kept getting bigger to satisfy all gambling interests—horsemen, racetracks, existing casinos, video gambling interests, 10th casino license, wannabe casino interests. Governor Quinn raised concerns about the bill being too 'top heavy.' After a very long extended session, Speaker Madigan adjourned at 9:10 p.m. on the last day to pass legislation, and the gambling bill could no longer be called for a vote."
Gambling proponents have already said they will work to get a gambling expansion bill passed in the spring legislative session. (Our own Sen. Syverson will again ask for a Rockford casino.) The people in Rockford must be persistent in their opposition to a casino and not give up or give in.
One of the activists in our network sent me the following quote yesterday:
"If you are a true believer, if the rationale for your political participation lies beyond mere self-aggrandizement, you know that there are no such things as lost causes, just battles not yet won."—David Wilhelm, 2002
ILCAAAP has been working to oppose the expansion of gambling in Illinois since 1992. Galatians 6:9 says, "And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season, we shall reap if we do not lose heart." We pray that others in Rockford will be strengthened to join in the efforts to oppose more gambling. God bless you, Anita Bedell.
A new General Assembly has been sworn in, so we ask for and count on your continued help in this effort to prevent more harm to the families and communities in Illinois. For more information, contact Anita Bedell, executive director of ILCAAAP, at 1132 W. Jefferson, Springfield, IL 62702; via phone at (217) 546-6871; or online at ilcaaap.org.
To sign up locally for the next round, contact RUM at (815) 964-7111 or call the Rev. John Alan Boryk at (847) 376-8779.
It will be a miracle if we keep the gambling interests away.
The Illinois General Assembly won't be back in session until Feb. 1, but state Rep. Lou Lang has already introduced legislation to expand gambling—H.B. 36, H.B. 37 and H.B. 38.
Stanley Campbell is executive director of Rockford Urban Ministries and spokesman for Rockford Peace & Justice.
