God vs. man
How arrogant is man to think he can know the mind of God? Man, who bleeds, gets sick, can be wounded, and die... how can he think he can possibly know the answers only God knows? The answer is PRIDE! Man thinks he can figure out what only God knows. For God holds not only all the answers but he holds the very atoms of the universe and our existence between His fingertips!

MP, Cynon Valley
MP, Cynon Valley
See our much more detailed, easier-to-read analysis of votes on health, welfare, foreign policy, social issues, taxation and more.
Ann Clwyd occasionally rebelled against their party in this parliament
What about the workers at Remploy? We heard all the arguments for shutting Remploy and getting rid of many disabled workers. I understand that very few of them have found alternative work. What about them?
I am sure my hon. Friend will agree with me that the situation of disabled people in the valleys is particularly bad. We have the highest proportion of disabled people compared with other parts of the United Kingdom. Those people will be especially badly hit by the continuing cuts in welfare. Disability attendance allowance and housing benefit form part of a list of things that impact on...
Will the Home Secretary confirm whether the Wanless review looked at the situation in Wales? Did it consider the role of North Wales police and the work of the Wales Office at that time? I tabled an early-day motion in 2012, just before the Waterhouse review was set up, which made it clear that "the police have lost the confidence of the public by their apparent failure properly to...

Kate Winslet is a beautiful British actress with an outstanding list of film credits to her name. Nominated numerous times for a Best Actress Academy Award, Winslet finally won in 2009, for her work in The Reader (2008). This best Kate Winslet Movies list of all time celebrates the actress and highlights the top films that Winslet has starred in.
This best Kate Winslet movies list features the top 5 best Kate Winslet films of all time including only films that she acted in that have already released.

Author discretion is the final criteria used to distinguish the films.
Top 5 Best Kate Winslet Movies List
5. Finding Neverland (2004) – The beginning of a trend in which many of the best Kate Winslet movies feature a powerful male co-star. This top Johnny Depp movie offers a fictional depiction of how the Peter Pan author drew his inspiration.
4. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) – Winslet proves her quirkability in this odd romantic film that is also among the best Jim Carrey movies. The plot centers on a relationship turned bad, which leads an erasure procedure to help the characters get past their turmoil.
3. The Reader (2008) – Hard to dispute this as one of the top Kate Winslet movies of all time when she owns an Oscar for it. Ralph Fiennes co-stars in this post-WWII story about a man finding a former lover when she is defending herself in a war-crime trial.
2. Revolutionary Road (2008) – A very compelling drama in a reunion between Winslet and DiCaprio. Riveting, intense, and quite disturbing in the end.
1. Titanic (1997) – Long before billion dollar movies were a routine occurrence, Titanic set the mark as the top grossing film of all time shortly after its release. A romantic drama set aboard a historical tragedy with the sinking of the Titanic. Also, an establishment of a great on-screen duo, as Winslet shared the screen in some of the top Leonardo DiCaprio movies as well.

Story Courtesy Bold Nebraska
The Senate voted today to reject a bill forcing approval of the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline.
"Today's defeat of Keystone XL should send a strong signal to the incoming GOP-led Congress that farmers and ranchers will never back down to their oil soaked intentions. We call on Pres. Obama to stand up and reject Keystone XL now," said Jane Kleeb of Bold Nebraska.
In spite of heavy pressure from the oil industry's friends in Congress like Sen. Mary Landrieu, key Senators held strong against the dangerous project, recognizing that the pipeline would not be in our national interest because it would threaten our land, water, and climate while bringing no economic benefit to the American people.
Today's vote is yet another blow to the pipeline's prospects, as recent momentum has shifted against approval of the controversial project. Recent polling showed that as Americans have had more time to learn about the Keystone XL, support for the pipeline has waned. President Obama has also made it clear that he has serious reservations about the project, telling reporters last week that the pipeline would "[provide] the ability of Canada to pump their oil, send it through our land, down to the Gulf, where it will be sold everywhere else. It doesn't have an impact on US gas prices." The president has also reaffirmed his commitment to evaluating the pipeline based on its impact on climate, which experts agree would be significant.
LINCOLN – The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission invites the public to attend informational meetings regarding studies completed on the Niobrara River.

MSR WhisperLite Universal Stove Named Backpacker Editors' Choice
The MSR WhisperLite Universal stove has been honored as a recipient of a 2012 Backpacker magazine Editors' Choice Award, the most prestigious award in the outdoor industry, given annually to products in recognition of their outstanding innovation in design, materials and/or performance. Backpacker Editor-In-Chief Jonathan Dorn and his staff of editors and testers presented MSR with the award for the WhisperLite Universal stove at the annual Outdoor Retailer Winter Market in Salt Lake City, Utah on Thursday, January 19th. The Backpacker Editors' Choice Awards, bestowed annually since 1993, honor the products thatBackpacker editors have chosen as the best of the year based on months of trail testing by teams of highly experienced hikers and climbers. With no set categories for the awards and no set number of recipients, the products and the testing process drive the award categories. The MSR WhisperLite Universal Stove was one of only 13 innovative products that have been honored with a 2012 Backpacker Editors' Choice Award. The new stove is MSR's first hybrid-fuel stove and combines canister and liquid fuel capabilities into one comprehensive package. Fuel-specific jets and fuel source couplers let it burn just about anything, from white gas and kerosene to unleaded gasoline, while an inverted canister improves performance. "BACKPACKER gear reviews have many imitators, a few competitors, and no equals," said Editor-in-Chief Jonathan Dorn. "That's because no other magazine or website conducts in-depth field-testing as vigorously or impartially as the crew led by Gear Editor Kristin Hostetter. With a core team that has several centuries of combined trail time, along with first descents, decades of retail experience, and expertise in every backcountry discipline, Kristin puts new products through an unprecedented level of real-world abuse in every terrain and weather imaginable. She also oversees a transparent process that has earned an unrivaled amount of trust from readers, retailers, and manufacturers. The results are reviews that lead consumers to smart, durable products that consistently prove their worth with years of best-in-class performance." "Since MSR's inception in 1969, we've been committed to quality, local manufacturing and innovation. The WhisperLite Universal is the result of years of hard work and, at long last, easily…

CAPE CORAL, Fla. - Delta Family Counseling in Cape Coral has a new way you can help children devastated by the disaster in Japan.
They were contacted by Play Therapists from Japan, asking for toy donations, rather than money. The toys will not only give the children something to smile about, they will also play a key role in helping them process and work through the emotions of the traumatizing event.
"Toys are phenomenal for the kids," Tara Moser from Delta Family Counseling said. "Play is the language of children and the language of everybody. We just forget to play sometimes. Children can play out what is going one without even having to use words, and those toys can provide that."
They're asking for all types of new and gently used toys. They already have one box ready to be shipped to Japan.
For more information and to see a list of toys, go to: http://www.deltafamilycounseling.com/helping-the-play-therapists-in-japan/

Uninformed Lyrics - Unseen Terror
Behind closed doors secrets told,
deals are struck and bargains broke,
as darkness strikes a victim dies,
cover up a bunch of lies,
unanswered questions, hidden truth,
broken promises, no real proof.
Freedom of speech doesn't have a say,
uninformed the price we pay.
Authority makes decisions and keeps us in the dark,
transactions never told - it's not for us to know.
Mass unemployment a problem of today,
inflation on the increase but do we have a say ?
Wealth divides majotiry, money hides the truth,
for a price a deal is struck abusive to our youth.

« Ministering in the Wake of Tragedy | Home | The Porn Plague »
Going Back to Prison, Voluntarily
By John W. Kennedy | April 23, 2009
Steve "Gator" Gaede is an unlikely person to be ministering to inmates every Friday at Maricopa County, Ariz., Jail. Born with a severe facial deformity, he spent a haunted childhood undergoing numerous experimental operations and being taunted by other children because of his double cleft lip and palette. Understandably, he grew up angry and mean. He didn't speak intelligibly until age 15. By that time he already had been sentenced to a juvenile center, his first stop on a road to being a seven-time felon.
These days, Gaede, 52, goes to prisons and jails in the Phoenix area several times a week — as a staff pastor of Church on the Street, the Dream Center-sponsored ministry of Phoenix First Assembly of God. Gaede graduated from Church on the Street's boot camp 15 years ago.
On a recent Friday, I saw him interact with inmates at the county jail. About three dozen prisoners filed into a narrow nondescript room designated as the chapel. Those incarcerated must wear black- and white-striped uniforms, pink socks and pink undershirts.
Gaede preached a little and sang a lot while playing guitar in the service. Wearing a black cowboy hat, blue jeans and cowboy boots, Gaede crooned rockabilly gospel songs such as "It's Finally My Day," "Don't Give Up This Time" and "I Shall Not Be Defeated." Inmates sing along from the "My Life Was a Shambles" songbook Gaede distributed. He composed 35 tunes in the book.
The inmates, mostly in their 20s, respond to Gaede, some even calling out requests for him to sing their favorite song from the collection. Clearly, the ever-smiling Gaede demonstrates that he has real compassion for these men who have messed up somehow. With cornball humor amid serious stories, Gaede effectively conveys how God's grace transformed him after years of alcohol and drug addiction.
The service is a bright spot for many at the jail. As the men exited the room, another group of shackled inmates waited in the hallway to enter.

An ability attributed to Veela and those of Veela heritage. It is used to charm males, much like the Sirens in The Odyssey with this power Veela are stunningly beautiful and magically captivating who put men into a trance when singing or dancing it's unknown if Male veela descent have the same powers as only female have been properly desypled in the Series
Some wizards seems more immune to this than most others, though the first time exposure would have a stringer effect. Men who are exposed to it over a period of time become more resistant to it, although the Veela charm takes full effect if the Veela surprises the man. As no men of Veela descent have been portrayed in the books, it is unknown whether they would also have this ability. Veela are always, and under any circumstances, physically perfect, graceful and flawless, without anything that would make them look unattractive or distract from their presence. They are perfectly aware how to increase their appeal by apparel, action or choice of words, but even these are simply details to enhance their natural appeal

On August 13, 2013, James Edward Hall, age 75, of Eldridge, Iowa, was sentenced by United States District Judge John A. Jarvey to 15 years in prison for production of child pornography, announced United States Attorney Nicholas A. Klinefeldt. Judge Jarvey also sentenced Hall to a life term of supervised release.
On November 12, 2012, Hall knowingly induced a minor male to conduct certain acts while Hall recorded the activity. On December 5, 2012, pursuant to a search warrant, a search was conducted at Hall's residence. An onsite preview of Hall's computer was conducted, and the video of the minor was found on the computer. Hall was interviewed and admitted that he had recorded the 15 year old juvenile male in Hall's residence.

***** The Secret History of MI6: 1909-1949. By Keith Jeffery; published by Penguin Group, www.penguin.com; 832 pages; $20.
A piece of intelligence touted as a "smoking gun" turns out to be a forgery. Improper pressure is exerted on an intelligence analyst to reach the "right" conclusion. Exiles use sophisticated schemes to distribute bogus intelligence to further their own ends.
While reminiscent of allegations that arose in the runup to Operation Iraqi Freedom, these events all occurred decades prior. They are detailed in Keith Jeffery's authorized history of the first 40 years of Britain's Secret Intelligence Service, commonly known as MI6. The book ably demonstrates that many key challenges of intelligence gathering are constant.
While the book ends at the beginning of the Cold War, it contains many incidents with contemporary echoes. The "smoking gun" was the notorious Zinoviev Letter of 1924. Allegedly sent by Moscow, it called on the British Communist Party to "stir up the masses of the British proletariat." Purportedly written by a Bolshevik and obtained by MI6, the letter was leaked by unidentified parties to the media, creating a public uproar thought by some to have contributed to the fall of the first-ever Labour Party Government. After demonstrating that the letter was "almost certainly…a gross forgery," Jeffery concludes: "the whole affair shows how an almost obsessive and blinkered concentration on one target can dangerously influence the exercise of sensible critical judgment."
Jeffery describes the case of Vladimir Orlov, a Berlin-based former Tsarist intelligence agent who, echoing the modus operandi of some Iraq-related sources, was well known in "intelligence circles for running a factory for creating and circulating reports, which, if not forged, were mostly from dubious sources." Orlov was not alone. Members of the White Russian diaspora produced "mutually corroborative fabrications, which purported to be from different sources, but all too often were not."
Fans of Ian Fleming's James Bond will find some amusing references, as well. Jeffery describes how an MI6 agent was inserted into Nazi-occupied Netherlands in 1941. He was put ashore near a seaside casino in full evening dress, wearing "a specially designed rubber oversuit to keep him dry" so he could immediately "mingle with the crowd" inside. Some drops of cognac were sprinkled on him to "strengthen his party-goers' image." There is no indication whether, upon entering, he ordered a martini "shaken, not stirred."

Last week, we were talking up Proficient's GS10 subwoofer. Well, they actually have a little buddy. The company says that those subs pair very nicely with the newly announced GL6 cabinet loudspeaker.
As part of the Proficient Signature Series, the GL6 is designed for both two-channel and larger home theater systems. This flagship model has two 6.5-inch woofers and one 1-inch tweeter packed inside a seven-layer glossy black cabinet.
Proficient says that the dual Injected Molded Graphite woofers can create a focused vertical output and wide horizontal dispersion pattern. That basically means higher output and better detail, with lower distortion than your typical single-woofer system. That tweeter adds in high-frequency reproduction, thanks to its dome shape and silk material.
"We really owe our acoustics engineers for this one. Both are committed, career loudspeaker devotees who came up through the ranks in recording studios and tour sound. They took an aggressive set of performance criteria and turned it into a truly formidable loudspeaker," said Keith Marshall, Proficient's president. "Their efforts are obvious and the results are outstanding. The GL6 loudspeaker will sit at the very top of our brand."
Proficient will start shipping the GL6 sometime in the fourth quarter of 2011. Backed by a 10-year full warranty, it will have an MSRP of $750 each.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

This guy drag-racing his T-Top-equipped fourth-generation Chevrolet Camaro has no idea that it could be the end for his very precious roof - that one miscalculated move could end it all with a loud explosion and flying debris. The driver remains completely unharmed, but not everything comes away unscathed.
A GoPro camera attached to the glass T-Top panel catches the mayhem in all its high-definition glory, which you can check out in the video below. Consider this a cautionary tale of what not to do while drag-racing your T-Top Camaro.

I have been using the Grass Pig in the Chartreuse Silver Flake and Swamp Gas colors for Red fish in the grass with very good results. It has the weight to fall through heavy grass and has great action.
After filming and fishing with Doug Stange with In Fisherman television and magazine and being introduced to this product I was definately hooked on there effectiveness for catching big Walleyes. I live and fish on the great Lakes and catch big Walleyes using many different baits and presentations but this bait was one of my favorite new baits this year accounting for many big Walleyes. I generally fish them from 15 to 25 FOW on a 1/2 to 3/4 oz jig head swimming them close to the bottom. So for all of you walleye anglers out there give this bait a try this up coming season.

Loyal Safeway shoppers may see a few subtle changes in the upcoming months.
It was announced on Thursday, March 6, that Albertsons had purchased Safeway for $9.4 billion. The merger is expected to be completed by the end of the year.
Phone calls and emails to both companies' corporate media relations offices seeking comment on possible changes — including whether the Sedona Safeway would become an Albertsons — were not returned.

Did You Hear About Whitney Houston's New Movie Sparkle?
"Whitney loved this movie very much. This was her idea."- Debra Martin Chase producer
By OnTV Publisher
Apr 03, 2012 - 1:45pm WAT
A remake of the 1976 original, "Sparkle" stars Houston as the mother of three girls who form a singing group and struggle with fame and drug addiction. The trailer displayed the daughters, including "American Idol" winner Jordin Sparks, in performance. Houston is prominent throughout, at one point singing the classic gospel song "His Eye Is on the Sparrow."
She also tells one of her daughters: "I always knew you had the gift. It makes me feel like I did something right. Don't lose it."
Debra Martin Chase, who is a producer of the film, said she had mixed emotions with the trailer's release; the movie is scheduled for release Aug. 17.
"On the one hand, I'm so excited about the movie and we're really happy with how it turned out," she said in a phone interview Monday. "(But) just to have it said yet again that this is Whitney's last performance, it's hard. It's hard."
Houston is listed as the executive producer of the movie, which had already finished filming in Detroit when the superstar died Feb. 11 at 48 in Beverly Hills, Calif., on the eve of the Grammy Awards. An autopsy has shown she accidentally drowned in the bathtub, with heart disease and cocaine use listed as contributing factors.
There is no mention made of drugs in the trailer, and Chase declined to say whether it would be a focal part of the movie as it was in the original, saying she didn't want to talk specifically about the plotlines until closer to the movie's release date.
She also added that the movie was not altered to increase Houston's time in the film in the wake of her death.
"She is an integral, very much an integral part of the movie, but she's not one of the girls," she said. "She plays an important role, she's throughout the movie, but she's not one of the main characters."
Chase echoed other people involved with the movie who praised Houston's professionalism on the set. The movie was seen as a comeback vehicle for the star, whose career had waned over the years due to battles with drugs and alcohol.
"She was healthy, happy, on time every day, hung out on set when she wasn't working because she loved the cast," said Chase, who also declined to talk about the circumstances of Houston's death. "She had fun, her spirit buoyed everybody every day."
Houston had worked to get "Sparkle" to the screen for 12 years. It was her first movie since 1996's "The Preacher's Wife" and 20 years removed from her debut in the blockbuster movie "The Bodyguard," which was rereleased for one night last week.
"Whitney loved this movie very much. This was her idea," Chase said. "The great thing for me as her friend and her producing partner is that this movie will be an essential part of her legacy. ... It's the best performance of her life; she knew it at the time. She looked beautiful on camera and she enjoyed every minute making the movie."

Volt is 'go' for Oz as charging-point deal unveiled
Following on from its antipodean appearance at the Australian International Motor Show in Sydney, the Chevy Holden Volt is coming to Oz. And Australian power company AGL is going to put in charging infrastructure. We're a little saddened that the Outback may soon cease to reverberate to the bellow of V8-engined Holden Commodores …
Better Place - Terrible Branding!
The infrastructure has always been the second most problematic hurdle faced by alernative power vehicles so to a certain extent it is good to see it finally being addressed. Ive never been comfortable with the poor reasoning behind the likes of Better Place to be honest; just like a fuel station this should be a service open for all. To operate restrictions is to screw yourself through lower usage, and using the mobile phone argument doesn't work as the connection and payment can be done in different ways.
I had wondered when someone might get around to considering the improvements in the infrastructure that will be necessary to handle (a) generating and (b) distributing the back-of-the-envelope-estimated 50kWh per car per day * 20 million cars = 1TWh over and above what is normally used - a mere 340GWh according to the BERR http://www.berr.gov.uk/whatwedo/energy/statistics/source/electricity/page18527.html
It's hard to see how that's going to be generated by any non-CO2 emitting process that doesn't involve Cherenkov radiation...
Environment ruins classic film
Mad Max dystopia no longer possible, disappointment for thousands.
Not gonna work outside the south-east of Aus
A few examples of driving times in my area:
Buy a pack of cigs: 45 minute round trip
Local council offices: Three hours round trip
Nearest cinema and curry house: Five hours round trip
State capital: 48 hour round trip
National capital: 108 hour round trip
The above is actual time behind the wheel not including rest stops. And how many times is some minimum wage, spotty-faced forecourt worker going to damage the bodywork during battery changes on a long trip?
good, bring it on!
why all these "trials"?
why not just do it..?
screw these oil pigs holding us back..ok, so i know these "plug ins" have a iddy-biddy generator in the boot, cos our battery and leccy tech has had it's development arrested by the oil pigs, but that should at least give them something to supply in the decade or two it will take to get off oil..
p.s. stuff and nonsense: http:www.eupeople.net/forum
re: Environment ruins classic film
Don't worry, I hear they're remaking it in Swindon with Sinclair C5s.
Charging points
In the colder parts of Canada, every parking space has an electric outlet so you can plug in your engine block heater. Indeed, the presence of such outlets defines "colder parts of Canada".
No, I don't know what wattage block heaters are, but since ignorance has never stopped me from babbling like a fool, I'll hazard a guess that it's on the order of 10 watts.
Good for the environment?
Given that about 85% of Australia's electricity is generated from burning coal, can someone tell me how this is any better than cars running on petrol? Until a greater percentage of their electricity generation is happening from renewables this smells suspiciously like greenwash...
Fine in somewhere like New Zealand where the electricity is mostly from hydro.
Yeah right!
Like to see how one of these underpowered streaks of piss travels when you have to go outside of the major cities. Somehow I think the typically lame range of these things won't fare too well in a country of such magnitude. You can drive for hours here and still get virtually nowhere. Christ, low sulphur diesel (the type modern cars can actually use) was only mandated by law in around 2002 and I've never seen 98 RON fuel on sale in the 2 years I've lived here. Five minutes outside of a city and you'd be poked. As for anywhere off of the East coast, long range tanks would be the norm.
Green? Right... maybe try some research....
I don't know if anyone noticed, but us Aussies use more (and dirtier) coal per head that anyone else in the Known Universe, including China!
So, an electric car powered by coal-produced electricity at frighteningly low effiency due to our ageing power stations, and crap long-distance lines and lack of any large scale solar, wind, sheep farts or other renewable energy supplies (we have a drought, so the hydro schemes sort of DON'T WORK) works out to be.... just as polluting as petrol.
The car companies make more money though, as they are a 'premium product' that can put huge markups on because only very wealthy black-t-shirt wearing, apple-users with rectally inserted ipods are going to fork out cash for it.
(dont) forget perth
looks like the infrastructure isnt coming to the other side of the country. i guess thats ok tho, sounds like a bit of a sham to me with the locked in provider, and im sure the distances involved outside of Perth wouldnt promote the car either - coming from the person who doesnt know the specs of the car at all.
and who'd want to drive a small car from holden anyway? look like a tool haha.
@Not gonna work outside the south-east of Aus
Considering the driving times I would have guessed the NT or the kimberley region, but after the fucked up drive into work this morning on Sydney roads, you could just as easily be living in the outer Sydney metro area.
Great! my tax dollars are going towards another "green" scheme that is worse for the environment that the original problem. You've upset me now.
Of course even if the leccy was generated from renewable sources, we like our big v6's and v8's and our big 4wds here in Oz (especially in the outback), so it's still going to be a flop. Who really wants to pay a premium for a tiny car that is slower than a normal car, and has a range of only 30km, not to mention that the leccy will probably end up costing more than petrol anyway.
Big FAIL as far as I'm concerned.
It's about time
I've been hoping that we'd be giving up on fossil fuel burning autos for a long time, but for some reason hadn't until now noticed anything about any corporations with the marketing savy to begin to set up a network of "filling stations". For Personally I hate cars, and would much rather walk or ride a bike, but I think the time has come to slow down our polluting. I hope the batteries on such beasts would not be landfill items at the end of their lives.
If we can't get out of the mode that we all must drive around in our own private vehicles, at least the idea of minimizing the damage they cause to the environment is a good start. But what would it take to move us from getting our heads wrapped around public transport instead of roughly 80 percent (in Canada anyway) of the traffic on the road being in private vehicles only carrying the driver?

Some of my favorite gifts growing up were the gifts designed to make, build, and create. I will forever remember the happy hours spent designing and building wooden ornaments (a DIY woodworking project my dad came up with), handcrafting ornate letters with my Hello Kitty stationary set, and sewing pillows with my sewing kits. Check out these 10 great kits to buy or for inspiration to DIY your own kits this holiday season.

30 Beautiful Kids' Desks & Workspaces
Back to School 2013
Sometimes the kitchen table will suffice, but if you're tired of cleaning up math books and stray pencils every time you want to eat dinner, it may be time for a dedicated work space for you little one. Not only will it provide a home for their burgeoning backpack, it will give them a space to focus on that homework, complete that art project, and write in that journal. And for a little inspiration, here are thirty of my favorites:
Garage Sales: Do You Let Your Kids Keep Their Profits?
Garage sale season is in full swing, and our household is gearing up for a major moving sale. We're going through the house room-by-room and culling everything we no longer like, want, or use. This includes many things that belong to the 7-year old, and as I saw visions of dollar signs dance in his head, I wondered what the best way to handle the situation would be...
Best Reusable Snack & Sandwich Bags for Kids
Back to School 2013
I don't think I need to convince anyone that reusable sandwich and snack bags are a win-win. Buying fewer plastic bags saves you money over time and is an earth-friendly gesture. I use them to take snacks to work and my son uses them for his preschool snacks and what we call "go snacks" (snacks for the car or the playground). I'm definitely stocking up before he goes off to kindergarten next month.

This chicken paprikash recipe is a short-cut from Pasta-Roni. Since I've been sick, any short-cut is so valuable. This one uses my favorite variety, pasta alfredo. I usually just make this one the way it is in the box, but having guests and trying to fix something extra special can be tiring. It's really delicious, believe it or not.

text: Teamsters Local 340 and Town of Sabattus, No. 82-UD-02, affirmed by Board decision No. 82-A-01. STATE OF MAINE MAINE LABOR RELATIONS BOARD Case No. 82-UD-02 [Issued: July 27, 1981] ______________________________ ) TEAMSTERS LOCAL UNION NO. 48 ) ) and ) UNIT DETERMINATION REPORT ) TOWN OF SABATTUS ) ______________________________) This is a unit determination proceeding, initialed on June 22, 1981 when Teamsters Local 48 filed a petition for unit determination. As a result of the filing of the petition, a unit determination hearing was held pursuant to 26 M.R.S.A. 966 on July 23, 1981 in Augusta, Maine. Present at the hearing was Walter J. Stilphen, Secretary-Treasurer of Local 48. Also present as witnesses were Richard Pinard, Patrol Sergeant for the Town of Sabattus, and Bryan Doyle, Patrolman for the Town. No representatives or witnesses were present on behalf of the Town. Subsequent to the hearing Peter Garcia, attorney for the Town of Sabattus, telephoned the hearing examiner to state the Town's position with regard to the unit determination petition. Local 48 seeks by its petition formation of a bargaining unit composed of the Patrol Sergeants and Patrolmen employed by the Town of Sabattus. The Town objects to inclusion of the Patrol Sergeant in the unit on the ground that he functions as an Assistant Chief and therefore is a managerial employee. The hearing examiner finds pursuant to 26 M.R.S.A. 966 that a bargaining unit composed of the Patrol Sergeants and Patrolmen employed by the Town is appropriate for purposes of collective bargaining. The Town of Sabattus is a "public employer" as defined in 26 M.R.S.A. 962(7). The Patrol Sergeant is not a "confidential" Assistant Chief excluded from the definition of "public employee" by 26 M.R.S.A. 962(6)(C) or by any other subsection of Section 962(6). The test for determining whether an employee is a Section 962(6)(C) managerial employee is whether "the employee is permanently involved in collective bargaining matters on behalf of the public employer or [whether] the duties performed by the employee involve the formulation, determination and effectuation of the employer's employee relations policies." Waterville Police Department and Teamsters Local 48, [-1-] ____________________________________________________________________________________ MLRB Report of Appellate Review at 3 (Oct. 4, 1978) [78-A-06]. Testimony at the hearing shows that the Patrol Sergeant is not permanently involved in collective bargain- ing matters or in formulating and effectuating the Town's labor relations policies; for example, the Patrol Sergeant does not have the authority to hire or fire employ- ees or set the Department schedules. There is no evidence that the Patrol Sergeant is elected by popular vote, appointed to office pursuant to statute or resolution, is a department or division head, or falls within any other of the exclusionary categories set forth in Section 962(6). The fact that the Patrol Sergeant is second in command does not by itself mean that the employee is a "managerial" employee excluded from collective bar- gaining rights. The purpose of the labor relations statute is to provide employees the right to join labor organizations and be represented in collective bargain- ing, and the Section 962(6) exclusions "must be held to mean what [they] declare plainly." Maine Office of Employee Relations v. Maine Labor Relations Board, Docket No. CV-77-135 (Kennebec Cty. Super. Ct. (Oct. 10, 1980). The Patrol Ser- geant does not fall within any of these exclusions, and accordingly must be held to be a "public employee" eligible for inclusion in a bargaining unit. Since the Patrol Sergeant shares a clear and identifiable community of interest with the Patrolman, the hearing examiner concludes that inclusion of both positions in the same bargaining unit is appropriate. The description of the bargaining unit is: All Patrol Sergeants and Patrolmen employed by the Town of Sabattus. Dated at Augusta, Maine, this 27th day of July, 1981.

Teachers and staff at Charlton-Pollard Elementary School in Beaumont are encouraging their students to perform "Acts of Kindness" and then recognizing the good deeds of their young charges.
Earline Mitchell, counselor at the school, said, "At Charlton-Pollard Elementary School, we know that one small thoughtful gesture can make someone else's day. Kindness is contagious and we want to pass it around. We are teaching our students that their greatness is measured by their kindness."
The Beaumont Botanical Gardens got a solid addition to an already beautiful scenic area in Tyrrell Park after a local Eagle Scout built and donated three stone benches in the park's pond area.
Caleb Hughes, 16, of Beaumont's Troop 117 at Trinity United Methodist Church, built the three benches with the help of his stonemason grandfather, Conroy Hughes Jr., and said the project was a much-needed addition to the park, which was badly damaged after Hurricane Ike.
Did you ever hear of a project that just made you feel happy? Recently, I was introduced to the Giving Field garden project. What a wonderful testimony to the volunteer efforts of our community once again!

Lady Gaga fans swindled as 80 pounds UK gig tickets go for 1100 pounds
Submitted by Kiran Pahwa on Sat, 04/14/2012 - 12:52
London, Apr 14 : Fuming fans hunting tickets for Lady Gaga's sold-out UK dates ended up paying nearly 14 times the original value on a website owned by the official seller.
Within 60 seconds of sales opening on Thursday, every ticket for the star's two `Born This Way' gigs had been sold on Ticketmaster.
Fans were directed to the firm's sister company, is a secondary ticket site `Get Me In!', where tickets costing 80 pounds on Ticketmaster were on offer at 1,100 pounds.
Customers angrily condemned the scandal, with ticket organizers poised to profit twice.
Darren Marsden, 44, logged on to Ticketmaster at the exact time sales began to buy tickets for his wife Michelle's birthday, but it quickly became clear they were sold out and he was directed to the firm's sister site.
"Ticketmaster having such a strong hold on event tickets is bordering on a monopoly. The governing bodies should look into how it is allowed to distribute tickets so unfairly," the Sun quoted Company director Darren, of Bolton as saying.
Ticketmaster, the UK's biggest ticket seller and an official outlet for Lady Gaga's gigs in Manchester and London, takes a cut of about 10 percent from all tickets sold.
As owner of Get Me In! it also receives a second cut from re-sold tickets.
Get Me In! is supposed to sell tickets from fans who can no longer attend. But the fact tickets went on sale within minutes leaves that open to question - with many being sold by organised touts. They were going for an average 228 pounds.
"We never divert tickets allocated to it for sale at face value to Get Me In! Tickets on Get Me In! are listed by those who wish to re-sell tickets," Ticketmaster said. (ANI)

Julius Chambers, 76, N.C. civil rights attorney had home, car firebombed in 1965

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Julius Chambers, a Charlotte attorney whose practice was in the forefront of the civil rights movement in North Carolina, has died, his law firm said Saturday. He was 76.
A statement issued by his law firm, Ferguson Chambers & Sumter, said Mr. Chambers died Friday after months of declining health. A specific cause of death wasn't given.
"Mr. Chambers was not the first lawyer of color to try to address the issues of equality," firm partner Geraldine Sumter said Saturday. "He would tell you he had people like Buddy Malone of Durham that he looked to, the Kennedys out of Winston-Salem. The thing that Mr. Chambers brought to that struggle was a very focused, determined attitude that things were going to change."
The N.C. chapter of the NAACP called Mr. Chambers "a man of tremendous courage."
"His home and his car were firebombed on separate occasions in 1965, and his office was burned to the ground in 1971, during the height of some of his most contentious civil rights litigation in North Carolina," the NAACP said in a statement. "When he spoke of these events, Mr. Chambers was typically matter-of-fact, insisting always that you 'just keep fighting.'"
N.C. Attorney General Roy Cooper called Mr. Chambers "a friend who set a courageous example of doing what is right regardless of the cost."
In 1964, Mr. Chambers opened a law practice that became the state's first integrated law firm. He and his partners won cases that shaped civil rights law, including Swann v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education regarding school busing.
The 1971 ruling in the case mandated crosstown busing and highlighted the power of federal courts to intervene when local public school systems hedged en route to full integration. The case came as then-Gov. Bob Scott had just taken office. Although Mr. Chambers won the case, Scott had already pledged that he wouldn't allow state money to be spent for busing.
"Chambers probably, being one of those lawyers rooted in the South, was able to see the inequities more clearly because they were so stark here in the late 60s and '70s," Sumter said.
The Charlotte Observer reports that Mr. Chambers took eight cases before the U.S. Supreme Court and won them all.
Born and raised in Mount Gilead, Mr. Chambers was the third of four children. He came to what was known then as North Carolina College at Durham in 1954 and graduated summa cum laude in 1958. Mr. Chambers received a Master of Arts degree in history from the University of Michigan and studied law at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he received the LLB degree with high honors in 1962 and was admitted to the North Carolina bar.
Mr. Chambers also served as chancellor of his alma mater, North Carolina Central University, from 1993 to 2001.
"His rich legacy will live on forever at this alma mater through the countless initiatives that began during his tenure and continue to thrive today," said N.C. Central Chancellor Debra Saunders-White.
Sumter said Mr. Chambers cared about young people no matter where he went.
"I have never gone anywhere with Chambers where he didn't approach a young person and ask them what's your name, where are you from, who are your people, where are you going to school," she said. "It brought him joy and satisfaction that young black people were doing well and trying to go forward."
Among his survivors are two children, three grandchildren and a brother. His wife, Vivian, died last year.
