What to do After a DUI Arrest in Michigan
What should you do when you are released from jail after being arrested on a drunk driving charge? You might think that my answer to that question, as a Michigan DUI lawyer who handles cases from Chesterfield and New Baltimore, across to Rochester Hills, down to Dearborn, Dearborn Heights and Westland, and throughout every other city in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb Counties, including Clinton Township, Roseville, Saint Clair Shores, Shelby Township and Sterling Heights, would be something like "Call me first!" It's not. This will be a serious article about the first few things you should do to take care of yourself in the aftermath of a DUI arrest, and what to do in order to make things better, including how to find the right lawyer for you.
This is an important starting point: If one of the primary goals is to find the right lawyer, then we must begin with the idea that you want the right lawyer for you. It goes without saying that the right DUI lawyer for you must be a good DUI lawyer, but not every good DUI lawyer will be right for you. And what must be considered here is a running theme throughout this article, and really is a guiding principle for any lawyer you hire: Do your homework. Whatever else, almost every step in the DUI process is important, and nothing should be done without careful thought. Sure, I'm in business to make money, but even if you have landed on this page having been referred to me in the most glowing terms by someone, what kind of "adviser" would I be if I didn't tell you that you should read what I have written, read what other lawyers have written, and then do some honest comparison shopping?
In the interest of shameless self-promotion, I will go so far as to point out that I am unique by giving the "shop around" advice. I try to be a good consumer and learn what I can before I make any significant purchase, and I expect that anyone making a decision as important as spending several thousand dollars on legal services will (and absolutely should) do the same thing. I don't fill my website, nor my articles, with loads of scary information and then prompt the reader to "Call now!" Nor, for that matter, do I identify myself with the tired old descriptors "tough" and "aggressive." Those are minimum starting qualities for any DUI lawyer, just like having good vision is necessary for an airline pilot. Instead, I try to provide as much helpful information as I can, with an eye toward letting the reader get a good feel for who I am. If you take the time to read even just a few of my articles relevant to your situation, you can certainly get an accurate sense of my "voice" and an idea of what I am all about. So we begin with the idea that you should put in some worthwhile time and effort looking for the right DUI lawyer...

Seattle mayor supports bill to lower speed limitson October 17, 2011 @ 8:46 am (Updated: 8:53 am - 10/17/11 )
A revolutionary new idea is in the legislative hopper to improve roadway safety and reduce the number of deaths on the streets of Seattle and other cities.
It's so controversial that drivers are sure to revolt. A bill ready for introduction in the state House would make it easier for cities and counties to reduce the speed limit on residential streets and in business districts.
For example, the speed limit on non-arterial roads could be cut from 25 miles per hour to 20 miles per hour.
According to KOMO-TV, it's an idea that Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn is pushing to improve safety for bicycle riders, but it's considered a safety measure for drivers and pedestrians, too.
House Bill 1217 would allow municipalities to set a lower, 20 miles per hour speed limit without jumping through a lot of bureaucratic hoops. Right now, lowering a speed limit requires time-consuming and expensive engineering studies.
The rationale, according to bicycle advocates and others, is simple statistics and physics. Statistics provided by the Bicycle Alliance of Washington indicate that a car traveling at 40 miles per hour will hit a pedestrian with four-times the force of a car traveling at 20 miles per hour. At 20 miles per hour, the chance of death in a crash with a car is about five percent.
Of course, the impetus for this legislative change is a rash of fatal bicycle crashes in the Seattle area in the last few months. The crashes prompted Mayor Mike McGinn to call for a road safety summit in Seattle which is scheduled for next Monday night, Oct 24, at City Hall.

High vs. Low: Personalized Silhouette Artwork
I'm loving silhouette artwork right now. It's classic, timeless and very personal. Traditional black and white is pretty, but why not make them a little more contemporary by showcasing the silhouette in a bold color like in the mom and dad silhouettes used in a design by Lilly Bunn Interiors below?
I originally saw bold silhouettes used in the Carter Kustera Portraits from Jonathan Adler. These cost a pretty penny at $750 each, but they are hand painted in gouache on large 15″x19″ paper, and this does include a custom frame and color.
I really like the color, font options and size of this print, but it was still lacking some of the personalization that was so charming in the Carter Kustera print.
While working on a current project, I came across this similar design by Love and Victory, which is a lovely blend of the two. These silhouettes are a little more unique because they are cut-outs not prints; a framed 9″x11″ is $78.
They can even be hand personalized with the child's name and age like the Carter prints.
Jasmine C.
I dunno but silhouette just never appealed to me.Sure, I love looking at them hanging on other people's walls, but I don't think I'd like one in my own home.
They're cute, especially when you use really cool paper. @jasmine: Actually, I feel the same way, too. I am not too excited about this kind of art on my own wall, but I don't quite dislike them on others'. maybe it's because I just like framed photographs more.
I have silhouette art on my wall. I love it because it really looks like me even if it's just an outline of my profile. And it's done in my favorite shade of blue.

You guys gotta be kidding. Trains haul stuff EVERY DAY and NIGHT much
more dangerous than crude oil or fuel. Like CHLORINE for instance. Try
being around for one of those tank cars to bust open. Crude oil is
nothing, Bob Burnitt Ellis County Texas..
Published December 31, 2013
A fiery train collision in North Dakota has rattled the residents of a state experiencing both the benefits and pitfalls of an oil boom. (See related photos: "Bakken Shale Oil Boom Transforms North Dakota.")
A 112-car train carrying grain derailed on Monday and collided with a 106-car eastbound train carrying crude oil, outside Casselton, North Dakota. The collision set off a blaze that engulfed at least 21 cars, according to the operator of both trains, BNSF.
The accident points to the dangers of rail transport of crude oil, sometimes overlooked amid a U.S. debate over the wisdom of building oil pipelines through the Midwest. The collision follows a deadly oil train tragedy earlier this year in Canada.
In the North Dakota accident, 19 cars carrying crude oil derailed, along with one "buffer car" carrying sand to separate the locomotive from the crude tankers, according to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). The accident occurred one mile west of Casselton, a town of about 2,400 residents near Fargo and the state's eastern border (map).
No injuries had been reported, but residents of Casselton were forced to evacuate as plumes of black smoke rose and spread from the crash. Two other townships near Casselton were encouraged to evacuate as well.
Authorities said the fire would need to burn off, because the blaze was too dangerous for firefighters to approach. The NTSB, Federal Railroad Administration, and Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration have sent teams to investigate the cause of the crash.
Too Close for Comfort
In just a few years, North Dakota has become the nation's number two producer of oil behind Texas, thanks to the rise of advanced fracking, or hydraulic fracturing, in the state's Bakken shale. Output from the region was set to top one million barrels per day in December, a more than fivefold increase from five years ago.
The boom has drawn thousands of workers and contributed to a significant rise in population, but the state still ranks 47th among U.S. states in population density, according to the latest figures from the U.S. Census Bureau.
The area's low population density may have been a blessing in Monday's crash, but the incident increases worries for those who do live in the region. "There have been numerous derailments in this area," Casselton Mayor Ed McConnell told The Associated Press. "It's almost gotten to the point that it looks like not if we're going to have an accident, it's when. We dodged a bullet by having it out of town, but this is too close for comfort."
Rail is the primary mode of transport for crude coming out of North Dakota, which is producing more than its existing pipeline network can carry. Overall, rail transport of crude increased 44 percent from 2012 to 2013 alone, according to the Association of American Railroads. And analysts say that because the longevity of the Bakken boom is still not clear, it will be years, if ever, before pipelines are built to accommodate the bounty. (See "The New Oil Landscape".)
BNSF alone has seen an increase of 7,000 percent in the volume of Bakken crude it is transporting, and idle railways that had been built to deliver grain are being refurbished to deliver oil. (See related story: "Oil Train Revival: Booming North Dakota Relies on Rail to Deliver Its Crude.")
Earlier Accident
The Canadian town of Lac-Mégantic, Quebec, illustrates with devastating clarity what can happen when an oil train malfunction occurs near a population center. In July, parked unattended tankers carrying Bakken crude detached from their locomotives and rolled into the town of 6,000, killing 47 people.
The town resumed train service in December, banning the transport of hazardous substances, including oil. (See related stories: "Oil Train Crash Probe Raises Five Key Issues on Cause" and "Oil Train Tragedy in Canada Spotlights Rising Crude Transport by Rail.")
The Lac-Mégantic incident prompted the U.S. Federal Railroad Administration to issue an emergency order with new requirements for securing unattended trains, but the agency acknowledged in that same order that it did not have adequate resources to inspect more than a small percentage of trains for regulatory compliance.
In any case, observance of those rules would not have prevented an accident like Monday's in North Dakota. The NTSB's Robert L. Sumwalt said in a briefing Tuesday, "I think our biggest challenge right now is that the fire is still burning, and we're not able to get up close and personal to the wreckage until the fire has gone out." Sumwalt said the NTSB could issue urgent safety recommendations if its investigation warranted them. (See related photos: "Ten Biggest Energy Stories of 2013.")

North Dakota Oil Train Explosions:
It Could Have Been Us
TAHOLAH, WA--The massive oil train explosions in North Dakota, which caused caustic black smoke to engulf the town of Casselton, provide yet another example of the danger we face in this region due to increased transportation of oil by rail, says Fawn Sharp, President of the Quinault Indian Nation.
"It could have been us," said Sharp.
"This is one of the very real dangers the Quinault Nation and others have been consistently warning people about," said Sharp. "The smoke from such fiery accidents is poisonous and deadly, particularly to those with asthma and other respiratory ailments. But the danger of such spills does not stop with the smoke. Oil from such accidents can cause major destruction to land and water, leaching into ground waters, as well as rivers, streams, lakes and marine waters wreaking havoc on fish and wildlife habitat," she said.
"Industry officials, port officials and others who have been pushing for the increased oil traffic into Grays Harbor County have advocated increased traffic on the basis of benefits to employment and the economy. The folly of that argument becomes crystal clear in the wake of these accidents," said Sharp.
"The fact is that these accidents can happen anytime. Such spills cause major jeopardy to health, the environment and the economy. People hunkering in their homes or evacuating areas because they fear breathing the air, drinking the water or depending on a healthy ecosystem do not contribute to a sustainable economy," said Sharp.
The mile long train carrying crude oil from the fracking fields of North Dakota set off a series of huge explosions yesterday, causing officials to direct thousands of nearby residents to stay indoors as they waited for the resulting fires to subside. Businesses remained closed and homes appeared evacuated, according to local reports. The accident, which occurred near Casselton's ethanol plant, fortunately has not resulted in any reported direct deaths so far.
"But 47 people died in a separate oil train accident in Quebec this summer, and the fact is that each oil train entering our region risks lives, property and the environment," said Sharp.
North Dakota oil regulators say they expect that up to 90 percent of that state's oil will be carried by train in 2014, up from 60 percent, matching a growing national trend. The number of crude oil carloads hauled by U.S. railroads surged from 10,840 in 2009 to a projected 400,000 this year.
"Industry officials and other advocates of increased oil traffic typically point to the number of oil shipments that don't result in accidents to support their claims of safety. But the fact is that there will be accidental spills. The accidents we have seen, from transport of oil by train as well as truck and ship, provide ample proof of this," said Sharp.
"Any such accident is one too many. The health of our people and the environment that sustains our health, and our economy, are far too valuable to allow our region to be swayed by industry rhetoric," she said. "The number of jobs jeopardized by increased oil traffic far outnumber those to be gained from good stewardship. Moreover, vast increases in oil production, and transport, take us the absolute wrong direction as we endeavor to stand up to the very real danger of climate change and ocean acidification," said Sharp.
Build the Keystone pipeline, but wont be OK'd by this admin.
Do you actually think that a 90 ton car or a car carrying combustible oil made any difference to the 47 victims in Canada or to their loved ones? Any car hauling inhalation hazards, flammable/combustible material, or poisons is a dangerous car no matter how you slice & dice it. The problem is that the Class 1 RR's, AAR & FRA are all chummy with each other & the RR's have appropriately seeded their fields to guarantee their unhindered growth. Profitability is the #1 priority of each & every RR & not safety as each would have you believing. Case in point: Jan. 05, 2005 in Graniteville, SC. A derailed NS train hauling chlorine causes death & the immediate evacuation of the town. The people of the town are in my opinion unfairly taken advantage of by NS agents who hand out checks & have the residents sign waivers not to take legal action against NS. Those people never knew what hit them. They might as well had signed over their soul to the devil. More important is how did NS resolve to avoid any future accident of this magnitude that literally destroyed a town? You would expect the FRA to mandate a requirement that takes advantage of the technological advances that would dramatically increase the safety of the crew as well as the civilian population. The cutting edge solution to this was a piece of paper called SPAF which stood for Switch Position Awareness Form. No matter if that form had been implemented before the Graniteville tragedy, it still wouldn't have prevented the train from departing the main line track to an industrial track because a switch leading into the industry wasn't restored for the main line. The form worked out so well that the FRA discontinued its use. This is such an egregious act by the FRA & NS that puts NS in the same spot prior to Graniteville.
The RR's are not concerned for your well-being nor for their own employees because the RR has no conscience or moral compass for that matter. It is far more profitable for the RR's to pay for casualties, deaths, & clean up, than it is to vest money in sure-fired safety technology. The current accident & future accidents, injuries, fatalities have already been calculated by BNSF's actuaries plus any litigation involved all have dollar amounts.
Casselton will be yesterdays news because BNSF will bury you deep just like every Class 1 railroad quietly buries their accidents & the people involved. Maybe BNSF agents have approached the "displaced" evacuees & will make things right by giving them a little something something for the "inconvenience". A word of advise to those temporarily displaced who think they'll pursue litigation against BNSF: their tactic is starvation & discovering all your assets i.e. do you own your home, do you farm your land, how many acres do you own, do you have stock, do you have an IRA, how my acres of your property has trees, do you own your vehicles, how many? They're measuring you to see how long you can weather the storm. The list goes on & on & the sad thing is that you're a victim & not the perpetrator.
You guys gotta be kidding. Trains haul stuff EVERY DAY and NIGHT much more dangerous than crude oil or fuel. Like CHLORINE for instance. Try being around for one of those tank cars to bust open. Crude oil is nothing, Bob Burnitt Ellis County Texas
I posted a comment on the day of the Casselton derailment after I read the article "TEN BIGGEST ENERGY STORIES of 2013." After a few days of time to reflect, I now know the "challenge" in "THE GREAT ENERGY CHALLENGE." It would be the development of conscience. Signed-a concerned North Dakotan.

Voting is under way in Poland's second round election runoff to choose a new president following the death of Lech Kaczynski and many other senior officials in a plane crash in Russia on April 10.Sunday's vote pits Kaczynski's twin brother Jaroslaw, the eurosceptic leader of the main right-wing opposition party, against Bronislaw Komorowski, the candidate of the ruling Civic Platform.
The vote will help decide the speed and scale of economic reforms and set the tone for Poland's ties with its European Union partners and with Russia.Polling stations opened at 6am (04:00 GMT) on Sunday and exit polls showing the final estimated results are expected as soon as voting ends at 8pm.
Around 30 million Poles out of a total population of 38 million are eligible to vote.
Tight race
Turnout in the first round was 54 per cent, but the Komorowski camp fears that the timing of the election, in mid-summer, combined with unusually hot weather, will play to Kaczynski's advantage as Komorowski voters, who are generally younger and wealthier, are more likely to take holidays and not vote.
Still, opinion polls have mostly predicted a Komorowski victory, although Kaczynski has been narrowing the gap in recent weeks and lagged by just five percentage points in the first round of voting on June 20.
A final slew of polls published on Friday, the last day of campaigning, showed the candidates either on level terms or Komorowski with a small lead.
Financial markets favour a Komorowski presidency, expecting him to work smoothly with the market-oriented government of Donald Tusk, the prime minister, as it tries to rein in a big budget deficit while keeping a fragile economic recovery on track.
"Only co-operation can guarantee that money will be spent rationally, only co-operation can guarantee that Poland will take the path of development," Komorowski said on Friday.
In Poland, the government led by the prime minister sets policy, but the president appoints many key officials, has a say in foreign and security policy, and can propose and veto laws.Conciliatory tone
Investors fear that Kaczynski, who opposes cuts in public spending and privatisation, would use his presidential veto to block reforms, just as his brother Lech did before his death.
However, Kaczynski, known in the past for his acerbic nationalist rhetoric, has struck a conciliatory tone on the campaign trail in an apparent bid to win over middle-of-the-road voters.
"As president I would want to convince people to co-operate for the common good, for the development of Poland," he said on Friday, on a final swing through rural Poland, heartland of his conservative supporters.
Kaczynski is opposed to joining the euro any time soon and is distrustful of the EU, Russia and Germany.
Komorowski, the speaker of parliament and the country's acting president, shares Tusk's vision of a Poland firmly anchored in the European mainstream.
He favours working closely with Germany and other EU partners and trying to improve long troubled ties with Russia.

Teen celebrates first birthday since life-saving transplant
Updated On: Mar 22 2013 11:57:42 PM EDT
A teen who received a liver transplant last year and who doctors once said had hours to live is celebrating his 15th birthday.
Adam Snow survived acute liver failure and was just hours from death when doctors found a life-saving donor.
"I got lucky. I just was really lucky and was able to make it to my 15th birthday," Snow said.
Just a few months ago, his parents didn't know if he would make it to his next birthday.
Needless to say, they are overjoyed.
"It was kind of nice waking up today knowing Adam was turning 15. Three and a half months ago, we didn't really know he was going to live past being 14," said Adam's mother Linda.

Your patron saint for 2014!
It's that time of year again! I used my week of being under the weather to touch up the Saint's Name Generator, so it's all set for another round of saint choosing. For those of you who aren't familiar with it, the Saint's Name Generator is a simple program I created to choose a saint's name at random. I like to use it to find saints to for each year, as well as for other causes and events for which I could use some extra prayers. There are about 300 names in the database, so it's a great way to discover... Read More
A saint for the year
It's that time of year again! I just used my little Saint's Name Generator program to have a saint chosen at random to be my patron for the year. So, umm, should I be concerned that this is who I got? St. Michael the Archangel Patron of (among other things): people in danger at sea, ambulance drivers, bankers, dying people, the sick, swordsmiths (What on earth does God have in store for me this year?) Click here if you'd like the generator to choose a saint for you! Note that you have to click twice to get your saint (I wanted... Read More
Forgiving the unforgivable: A conversation with Dawn Eden
For many of you, Dawn Eden needs no introduction. She's a popular blogger, a former rock journalist, Catholic convert, and author of the bestselling book The Thrill of the Chaste. I recently had the honor of interviewing her for the National Catholic Register, where she spoke for the first time publicly about her own experience as a victim of childhood sexual abuse. When I talked with her for that interview, I was overwhelmed by the amount of wisdom Dawn has gained on the subjects of healing and forgiveness. It was immediately clear that there... Read More
The Saint's Name Generator
Check it out! I used some of my holiday free time to create a little program that will choose a saint's name at random. (Yes, writing code is how I relax. Yes, I am a hopeless nerd.) Why would you want to choose a saint's name at random? I got the idea from the "saint for the year" devotion, where people have a patron saint for the new year chosen for them at random (usually by a priest or religious, who prays over each choice). I've had saints chosen for me this way before, and it's always been a great experience.... Read More
Finding home
The ride home from the airport after we picked up our Kidsave child Rita was a little tense. We quickly found out that when they said in her bio that she speaks some English, by "some" they meant "not a single word." A Colombian social worker named Maria was with us as well, and she didn't speak much English either. "Is hot too where you live?" I asked in broken Spanish. They barely managed to nod and smile. They had arrived a day late after getting stuck in Atlanta overnight, and were too exhausted to strain... Read More
A name for baby Joy
As I mention in #2 here, my older children insist that the new baby's name is "Joy." It was the strangest thing: my four-year-old son got it into his head one day when I was still pregnant that that was the baby's name, and has not backed down since then. When guests refer to her by her real name, he or my two-year-old will adamantly correct them that she is to be called "Joy." They've been so insistent that our family has just given up and officially given her that nickname. Meanwhile, her real name is... Read More
Crying because I can't follow God's will…or my will?
A couple months ago I got it into my head that I was called to go to daily Mass. I'd been going to Adoration a lot and had repeatedly felt a strong prompting that I needed to receive the Eucharist more than just once a week, so I decided to try it. It sounded really difficult to pull that off while in the third trimester of pregnancy with three kids under five, but it was also kind of exciting to feel called to do something so unusual and challenging. I'd also heard about the great graces that my friend Abigail had seen after taking... Read More
Knock, knock. Who's there? A clue.
My post from Friday about St. Frances of Rome was supposed to be up on Thursday. After a fun but completely mentally and physically exhausting day, Thursday afternoon I put the kids down for their naps and flopped into my desk chair for my daily quiet time. It was like a taste of heaven itself to sink into the comfy chair and experience the placid silence of the house. All the cares of the day melted away as I opened up a new document to share yet another way in which God has worked in my life. As usual, the practice of putting the words together,... Read More
Anxiety is easier
Last week St. Francis de Sales and some bad programming at Google Maps led me to one of the biggest realizations I've had this year: that anxiety = not trusting God. For a long time I knew that stress about certain individual matters was due to a prideful insistence that I had the best plan for how this or that situation needed to turn out. But it has been quite stunning to realize that every single time I am anxious, it is due to a lack of trust in God. So, as I've mentioned, I've been trying to work on this by making a conscious...

St. Monica
I am taking the name Monica as my confirmation name, after St. Monica, mother of St. Augustine. Because of my spiritual immaturity, I felt like it was important to choose someone who was also a mother and lived in the world. I occasionally grouse that I could be a whole lot more saint-like if I lived in a convent, if I weren't surrounded by the demands of being a wife and a mother and life in the world. I chose St. Monica so that she can remind me always that these are just lazy excuses and there is absolutely nothing about my station in life... Read More

Freeflys Review > Freeflys.com at first sight
After joining Freeflys.com, I've received emails with offers, mostly coupons and discounts. The emails don't consistently come daily, sometimes they are daily and sometimes every few days.
Today's email says "new samples available!" I clicked the ad, and went to a page where I see offers to join newsletters, take surveys, but no free samples. I signed up for Kellogg's newsletter, hoping Freeflys will see me as an attractive candidate for free samples. It worked. Once I took the Kelloggs offer, I was taken to the web site where I could get free samples.
Note: as I move along these offers, there's a message at the top, "You will be presented with a list of free samples shortly. First, review these free offers selected especially for you."
I could have gone directly to Freeflys' web site, instead of through the email directing me to the offers I didn't want.
On the web site, the free sample links might direct me to a brand's web site where I can complete a form, a brand's Facebook site where I can "like" the brand to get the sample, a sweepstakes (where I could win a free sample, but I won't get one otherwise), and other methods.
I'll add more to this review as I go back to the emails and web site.
The information on your website is good. looking forward for more postings.
I agree, many thanks to the author. Thanks for taking the time to share this,Great blog post. Thanks..
It's a Very informative article , all the informations are given very clearly.

On the InDefero website, you can see at the top a series of links to access the different parts of the website. In my case, I wanted to improve the percentage of people accessing the page with the plans.
Before my tests, my data from Google Analytics gave me for the month of July:
I got everywhere that just changing a link in your website could drive the conversion up, so I decided to follow the same approach and used the base case plus 2 alternatives for my link to the plan page from the homepage:
And the results are really nice!
Every morning, my AB/Testing framework is sending my an email report with the status of my tests, this test is the first real test, so I was eager to get the first statistically relevant results. It came this morning:
Test: (1) Link to plans
Alt: (1) Link to plans - Free Hosting
Raw: 186, 42
Conversion rate: 22.58%
Recommended sample size: 210, 585, 5268
Alt: (1) Link to plans - Pricing and Signup
Raw: 91, 25
Conversion rate: 27.47%
Recommended sample size: 162, 450, 4056
Z-Score: 0.87
Confidence: 80.91%

Conversion rate: 34.38%
Recommended sample size: 117, 325, 2933
Z-Score: 2.06
Confidence: 98.01%
As I have a high level of conversion anyway, I do not need to run the test for too long to get meaningful results. What is really important is:
The next step is to use this alternative all the time and to improve the sign up page. If you are interested, you can do some split testing statistics here.

Travel Channel host Andrew Zimmern has made a name for himself devouring bizarre foods around the globe, but there's one thing this gustatory daredevil can't stomach. "A walnut will never cross my lips," Zimmern told a crowd at the Chicago Theatre on Wednesday. He was part of a presentation to media buyers and advertising honchos about upcoming programs on the Travel Channel and its sister networks, including HGTV and Food Network. Zimmern's "Bizarre Foods America" returns to the Travel Channel in July with new episodes, but don't expect to see any walnuts. "They're soapy," he said in disgust.

"Once again, a police dog's name will be added to the capitol K9 honor memorial, killed by the incompetence and neglect of his policeman partner."
"Tom Patterson's article in the EVTribune 9/9/12 edition talks about transfer payments to our needy citizens, but ignores the enormous government transfer payments to the wealthy — whether individuals or corporations. He is right that we will need moral fiber to change our situation: In a society where a person's standing is determined by his or her wealth, convincing those who have amassed large amounts of money, assets and power to share the cost of the government which protects them and creates economic opportunity for them will be difficult in the extreme."
"To the Venter who suggested on Friday, 9/7, that Mitt Romney has a problem connecting with women due to his Mormon faith believing that women are "subservient to men" — you apparently are not familiar with the Mormon faith. One of their most prominent documents 'The Family: A Proclamation to the World' states: '...fathers and mothers are obligated to help one another as equal partners.' So try again."
"The Venter who thinks Mormon women are subservient obviously knows very little about Mormon teachings or our history. LDS women have always been considered equal partners with their husbands and our doctrine has always strictly warned husbands against being domineering. Women have always had an equal part in the sustaining votes of church leaders and Utah was the second state to allow women to vote in civic elections."
"In response to the Venter who claims that if 'one were familiar with the Mormon faith' they would know that the women are subservient to the men, I say this: Obviously this one isn't familiar."
"Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan claim more unemployed people have just given up on looking for work. The only people who have given up on work are the GOP's own fact checkers!"
"What has the Republican Party done to help the economy the last four years besides pass voter fraud laws, pass trans vaginal ultrasound laws, try to repeal Obamacare several times and turn the pre-existing dogs loose on children, strengthen the NRA so more innocent people can be slaughtered, weaken labor unions that provide safety, health care and retirement for millions, cut funding for education at all levels, sign a pledge with lobbyists undermining the Constitution, and vote against equal pay for women. It's like they want to take us back to a time when J.P. Morgan ran this country with a monopoly."

Esme Glass Lamp by Jane Gray for Stray Dog Designs
Stray Dog Designs offers unique lighting, furniture and accessories with a distinct personality and quirky charm. Constructed from quality and recycled materials with creative flair, use of eye popping color and desire for design that is altogether different.
We love the Esme. We happen to think she's particulary stunning in her simplicity. That grass green on the tole shade is a knockout when paired with the the clear gourd base and ball finial. The shade is trimmed in gold, and the inside is painted gold. Esme has 2 bulbs in a sideways S configuration with a pull chain on each one.Please note, this product is wired for use in the US, Canada and most countries in Central and South America. If you are purchasing this lighting item for intended use in another country, it may not be compatible with the typical voltage requirements of that country. Some of our light fixtures can be re-wired by the designer to meet the needed voltage requirements. Please contact our customer care team before ordering.

The 37th bi-annual B.O.W. (Becoming an Outdoors-Woman) event recently took place at the Alabama 4-H Center in Columbiana, Alabama.
On the weekend of March 1, 2013, the event brought together an array of women who share a passion for the outdoors. They traveled to Alabama from neighboring states and even Canada.
Hunting industry instructors, Dawn Singleton and Tes Jolly, had the pleasure of instructing several of these amazing ladies in archery and bowhunting.
Besides lessons in the basics of archery, the women enjoyed target shooting, learning how to climb treestands and safety, estimating range on game, and they even had a friendly 3-D target competition on an archery range in the woods.
Not only did they learn those outdoor skills, but also had wonderful fellowship with other women who share the same passion for the outdoors.
B.O.W. events are for women of all ages, and the March event was blessed with participants ranging from 18 to 84.
Becoming an Outdoors-Woman is held twice each year at the Alabama 4-H Center near Columbiana in Shelby County, Alabama. The cost for the weekend adventure is $225, which covers meals, lodging, program materials and instruction. All instructional equipment is provided.
Please visit our website and pick out which adventures you would like to explore. We would LOVE to have you join the fun!
The 2013 fall workshop is scheduled for October 4-6, 2013. We hope to see you there!

Classic Macintosh Pen Holder: The Mac is Mightier than the Pen
February 19th, 2013
It's been nearly 30 years since the original Macintosh hit the scene, so that definitely makes me feel old. But despite being ancient technology, I still love the little computer that smiled at you when you powered it on, and frowned when it crashed. And while I'm currently working on a 2011 iMac with a 27-inch screen, I've finally found a way to keep a classic Macintosh on my desktop.
Thanks to Technabob friend, artist, and all around good guy Metin Seven, we can now have a happy Mac to hold on to our pens! It measures about 2.6″ x 2.6″ x 3.3″, and is perfect for holding onto all of your pens, pencils, X-Actos and other long and pointy desktop objects. Thanks to the miracles of 3D printing tech, you can get your grubby little mitts on this classic Mac pen holder for about $53(USD).
Just don't try cramming a 3.5″ MacPaint disk into that tiny drive slot. It'll take way more than a paper clip to get it out of there if you wedge one in there.

A lot has changed in the four years since we last heard a new Fuck Buttons album — the band has explored side projects, been played at the Olympics, and now seems to have finally gained the confidence to record an album without an outside producer. Slow Focus is now streaming here on Pitchfork Advance, and it's really worth the listen. Much of what you could infer from the previously released "The Red Wing" reflects the album as a whole, but that was just a short edit, and the band's scope is far wider once you hear the record as a whole. Clearer than their first album, and with a bit less shine than Tarot Sport, their third album has taken the band's typical energy and stretched it out like taffy, while intensifying their menace. Slow Focus — it's a pretty fitting name. With the increased space and slower feel, the caustic sounds just hit even harder, and I can't wait to hear what this will all sound like live. Look for the album in stores on 7/23 via ATP

I remember listening to Street Horrrsing in the library back in college and having the most profound existential experience. When I took off my headphones everyone seemed so quiet and mundane. On first listen this is fucking amazing.
It took me a second before the headline coalesced from a string of random words into something that made sense. I wish my office mates were enjoying this album as much as I am.
