My feeling is that if the OP's parents knew about this guy's behavior and how he was treating their daughter over the years yet kept inviting him over anyway, then that's just tough beans if they get the brunt of the consequences.
Why doesn't Hortense rein in Hector? She presumably knows what a perve her husband is, why isn't SHE keeping an eye on him at parties and making sure he doesn't harrass women?

She presumably knows what a perve her husband is, why isn't SHE keeping an eye on him at parties and making sure he doesn't harrass women?Good point. Hortense may well be a lovely person but she is also enabling Hector in his perverted and anti-social behaviour. If she's going to stand by while he harasses people then I have little sympathy for her when there are consequences to that, eg. social invitations drying up.
This hits very close to home for me.I was assaulted two years ago. When DH and I told my parents we were engaged some time later, they insisted that I invite the responsible parties to the wedding. That was, I'm sure you'll understand, not at all negotiable. But, from their point of view, it would look bad (small town and all) if these people weren't there due to the close family relationship they had.This was one of the last few straws that lead to a cut. To say the process was unpleasant would be a horrendous understatement. I had counselling for almost a year.I understand how sticky and tense this situation must feel, and how it can be awful to accept that maybe, no matter what you do, someone will be upset. If that is how it turns out, then please just remember: this is your engagement. Of all the events in life, this is one of the few where you don't have to feel guilty about not doing something that makes you understandably uncomfortable.Hortense understands how her husband is. Depending on how close you are to her, could you ask her in person if she'd be offended or unable to attend if you didn't invite lecherous Hector as well as her? If she was fine with it, then you'd make your parents and yourself happy.If your relationship isn't one where this would be feasible, then don't invite them. Part of being a unit with someone else is taking what comes with it. "For better or worse" and all that, if you like. I'm sure Hortense is lovely, but you won't be able to relax during your own celebration if Hector comes along and leers or makes sexual passes at children.Moreover: the whole point of being a good hostess is doing what is best for your guests. Inviting Hector hardly fits the bill here. It would be a far better thing, hostess-wise, to not invite someone who will upset half the guests and make disgusting, sexual comments at young girls who should never, ever be subjected to such a thing. Allowing this would not be the mark of a good hostess at all.If somehow not inviting the couple isn't possible either, then you might have to scale back the event, sadly. Unless you feel that having Hector harass your guests is a better option, which I don't.
Pen, I'm so sorry this happened to you. Nothing you post about your parents surprises me anymore, unfortunately. I'm sorry to delve into past trauma, but would it be OK if I asked:1) Did you end up inviting the responsible parties to the wedding? (Did they attend?)2) Did your parents acknowledge the assault at all or was it a case of the "yeah, buts" as in, "Yeah, they hurt you horribly, but they have to be included in one of the most important days of your life because we'll be embarrassed otherwise."

And it's fine to ask. In response:1) No. As I said, it was not up for negotiation. I am not ever again willingly spending time with someone who assaulted me and showed no remorse or gave any indication that it wouldn't happen again. We had a registry office thing, so the time and date were not made publicly available and they had security who were very helpful when we explained things to them anyway as a precaution. If unwanted people had shown up unexpectedly, there or anywhere else, we would have called the police. If someone knows you don't want anything to do with them and they actually want to change that, they don't do it by showing up uninvited and imposing themselves upon you. I'd assume the worst for safety's sake, if nothing else.2) I was told twice, "Get over it." Once I was told, "Sweep it under the rug." I received a very unpleasant email which explained why, "Family comes first," means that despite what I did to the attacker (how dare I make someone attack me and then call the police!), I need to still do what they want because what the family wants trumps my silly notions of safety. There was never even a, "They hurt you but <justification>" because they never even mentioned that I was hurt at all, even when I first spoke to them about it. I recall, not an hour after the attack, being curled up in the foetal position crying on the floor while my father berated me for having the audacity to be upset. Not once did they ask if I was alright, or how I was doing, or anything. What my parents did hurt me a great deal more than anything else. I don't think they even realise that, even though myself and several other people made it very clear to them. Nothing was acknowledged and nothing was apologised for, unless you count the, "I'm sorry you're so stupid," I got at one point.Safety is not something that should ever be compromised on, no matter what. There are no excuses. Not acknowledging Hector's horrendous behaviour is a disgustingly low thing to do. He's not attacking anyone (that we know of) but hitting on children is in the same category of inhuman and intolerable. I'm interested in how the OP ended up handling this. Anything worth updating, OP?

There is already a review of I Cant Believe Its Not Butter Fat Free Spread here on Iateapie.net. I tried it and had the same ill feelings that Lizabeth did. Still the lure of a 5 calorie butter made me go back for round two. This time around, I am singing a different tune.
Gone is the weird 'water' that pooled around the top of my last tub. Yes, the artificial yellow coloring is still the same, but I can look past that. The flavor seemed much different - in a good way. This butter spread seemed thicker and the butter flavor seemed more pronounced, and more salty than last time (not overly so, but in a good way). It was actually pretty similar in taste to real butter. Looking at the packaging, I noticed that the packaging was also different. This new tub has a slightly different label than I remember. Maybe they reformulated their product along with the new packaging (although there was no marketing that stated this).
I am envious of the $1.50 price tag from the last review as this cost me $3.00! But let me tell you, this 5 calorie wonder was worth every penny. I am now a fan. I am so glad I decided to give this product another shot. I am dreaming of all the things I can now dip into my 5 calorie tub of wonder! Imagine the possibilities! And yes, I know that the ingredients are ... everything was made in a lab I'm sure, but this is something I'm willing to put up with in a condiment.

On a recent spring morning, three AmeriCorps members with the Iowa DNR caught the attention of a pair of trumpeter swans as they were organizing and leading a volunteer service project.
Many state, national, and private programs like the Iowa DNR and the Trumpeter Swan Restoration Committee exist to increase awareness and provide conservation efforts for the magnificent birds.
One of the known nesting locations for these swans lies just a few blocks east of Clear Lake in northern Iowa. The small pond sits adjacent to Clear Creek Elementary School and provides local school children with a rare opportunity to view wild swans at a close distance.
In the last decade, however, the pond had become overgrown with invasive plants, shrubs and trees making public viewing difficult. More importantly, the area was becoming unsuitable for nesting swans. Realizing the need for habitat restoration around the pond, three AmeriCorps members, Vaughn Wassink, Ryan Wilcke and Ryan Murphy, teamed up to organize a volunteer service project to clear invasive species from the land around the pond.
More than 20 community volunteers helped to cut and pull invasive plants and shrubs from the land surrounding the pond. The pair of trumpeter swans watched intently as AmeriCorps members and community volunteers efficiently cleared the area of any damaging plants and trees. The land around the pond was restored to a healthier, more suitable habitat in only a few hours.
"The volunteers did a great job, working hard and enjoying a little bit of swan biology and recovery history," said AmeriCorps member Vaughn Wassink. "We were very happy with the outcome. It was the first time this area has been totally cleared of invasive species for about 10 years or more."

Bezaleel and Aholiab are appointed and qualified for the work of the tabernacle. (1-11) The observance of the sabbath. (12-17) Moses receives the tables of the law. (18)
Verses 1-11 The Israelites, who had been masons and bricklayers in Egypt, were not qualified for curious workmanship; but the Spirit who gave the apostles utterance in divers tongues, miraculously gave Bezaleel and Aholiab the skill that was wanting. The honour which comes from God, is always attended with a work to be done; to be employed for God is high honour. Those whom God calls to any service, he will find or make fit for it. The Lord gives different gifts to different persons; let each mind his proper work, diligently remembering that whatever wisdom any one possesses, the Lord put it in the heart, to do his commandments.
Verses 12-17 Orders were now given that a tabernacle should be set up for the service of God. But they must not think that the nature of the work, and the haste that was required, would justify them in working at it on sabbath days. The Hebrew word /shabath/ signifies rest, or ceasing from labour. The thing signified by the sabbath is that rest in glory which remains for the people of God; therefore the moral obligation of the sabbath must continue, till time is swallowed up in eternity.
Verse 18 The law was written in tables of stone, to show how lasting it is: to denote likewise the hardness of our hearts; one might more easily write on stone, than write any thing good on our corrupt natural hearts. It was written with the finger of God; by his will and power. God only can write his law in the heart: he gives a heart of flesh; then, by his Spirit, which is the ( 2 Corinthians. 3:3 )
Exodus 31:1-18 . BEZALEEL AND AHOLIAB.
2. See, I have called--Though the instructions about the tabernacle were privately communicated to Moses, it was plainly impossible that he could superintend the work in person, amid the multiplicity of his other duties. A head director or builder was selected by God Himself; and the nomination by such high authority removed all ground of jealousy or discontent on the part of any who might have thought their merits overlooked (compare Matthew 18:1 ).
by name Bezaleel--signifying "in the shadow or protection of God"; and, as called to discharge a duty of great magnitude--to execute a confidential trust in the ancient Church of God, he has his family and lineage recorded with marked distinction. He belonged to the tribe of Judah, which, doubtless for wise and weighty reasons, God all along delighted to honor; and he was the grandson of Hur, a pious patriot ( Exodus 17:12 ), who was associated, by a special commission, with Aaron in the government of the people during the absence of Moses. Moreover, it may be noticed that a Jewish tradition affirms Hur to be the husband of Miriam; and if this tradition may be relied on, it affords an additional reason for the appointment of Bezaleel emanating from the direct authority of God.
3-5. I have filled him with the spirit of God--It is probable that he was naturally endowed with a mechanical genius, and had acquired in Egypt great knowledge and skill in the useful, as well as liberal, arts so as to be a first-class artisan, competent to take charge of both the plain and ornamental work, which the building of the sacred edifice required. When God has any special work to be accomplished, He always raises up instruments capable of doing it; and it is likely that He had given to the son of Uri that strong natural aptitude and those opportunities of gaining mechanical skill, with an ultimate view to this responsible office. Notwithstanding that his grand duty was to conform with scrupulous fidelity to the pattern furnished, there was still plenty of room for inventive talent and tasteful exactness in the execution; and his natural and acquired gifts were enlarged and invigorated for the important work.
6. I have given with him Aholiab--He belonged to the tribe of Dan, one of the least influential and honorable in Israel; and here, too, we can trace the evidence of wise and paternal design, in choosing the colleague or assistant of Bezaleel from an inferior tribe (compare 1 Corinthians 12:14-25 ; also Mark 6:7 ).
all that are wise-hearted I have put wisdom--At that period, when one spirit pervaded all Israel, it was not the man full of heavenly genius who presided over the work; but all who contributed their skill, experience, and labor, in rendering the smallest assistance, showed their piety and devotedness to the divine service. In like manner, it was at the commencement of the Christian Church ( Acts 6:5 , 18:2 ).
12-17. Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep--The reason for the fresh inculcation of the fourth commandment at this particular period was, that the great ardor and eagerness, with which all classes betook themselves to the construction of the tabernacle, exposed them to the temptation of encroaching on the sanctity of the appointed day of rest. They might suppose that the erection of the tabernacle was a sacred work, and that it would be a high merit, an acceptable tribute, to prosecute the undertaking without the interruption of a day's repose; and therefore the caution here given, at the commencement of the undertaking, was a seasonable admonition.
18. tables of stone, written with the finger of God--containing the ten commandments ( Exodus 24:12 ), called "tables of testimony," because God testified His will in them.

Some more shots from that scene....
Add me on Kik Messenger for a chat - danny.mo.89
Gotta LOVE those scenes!!!!!
thanks lover....look what youve done to me
He's very good looking, unfortunately I'm not really interested to watch The Vampires Diaries.
I'm just kinda sick and tired of the whole vampire romance craze thing.
"What the Hell. When did he get so muscular?" - My thought when I saw him on the episode. It's changing his face though.
Piranha from 2010 was on cable tonight. Terrible movie, great shots of SRMcQ.
I bet Piranha was a mess in production. It's as if they started to make a horror flick but decided it was laughable so they tried to switch it to a comedy but couldn't decide if it should be just physical comedy, so they tried a little of everything, but couldn't find a good editor, so they tried more cocaine, but that didn't work either, so they added more T&A, unfortunately none of it Steven R.'s ... The cast is an amazing mash-up of has-been's and wanna-be's, who must have needed the money: they probably had to chip in for the coke.
^dude thats harsh...its a fun movie with some awesome gore and humor
As luck would have it, STEVEN R MCQUEEN SLASH SERIES has been updated with Episode 2 : The Colleague
He's still so pretty Give me him as a boyfriend and I'll die happy.

I only recently found out that slash fiction exists. I had no idea it was as big as it evidently is. Who is the other character in the slash?
HOT Jeremy!
Great episode tonight. Prolonged shots of Jeremy (Steven) shirtless. Chewy nipples, nicely muscled, trim body. First time in years he's shown lots of skin. He's worked hard on that body. I respect him greatly for that.
LOVED that ending! He's SO Beautiful!!!
Great pictures ^
Thanks for them, with that said, I'll be busy for the next 15-20 minutes
Sent from my iPhone using Forum Runner
If only the CW had an X-rated partner channel that aired the "directors' cuts" of these shows.
Yum! Been waiting on him to show some skin, and it was more than worth the wait.

It's never too early in the year,

to spread some goodwill cheer!
I don't think I'd care for a X-rated version of The Vampire Diaries. Only if Matt and Jeremy banged. They're the only two men on the show I find attractive. Especially if the former is wearing glasses!
Also disappointed I had to watch the entire episode up to the last minute to see him rip his shirt off!
Oh dear lord.. Tonight's episode.. It started so well with Jeremy shirtless.. but the end.. The Vampire Diaries is making big mistakes right now... Losing their two hottest guys and probably killing off their only witch (haha little off topic^^)... I get the feeling that season 4 will be the last season I'm watching.
Jeremy got really buff for this season because of all the shirtless scenes that were to happen with the 'emerging tattoo" storyline. Let's just say that if I had been told how that tattoo story was gonna play out, I think I would have had said, "go to hell, catering bring me some doughnuts NOW".
One rule on this show, nobody stays dead for long.
haha but there were some spoilers SPOILER: so someone from season 1 is going to die, and it's going to be permanent.. and it's one of the main characters, so either Jeremy stays dead or Bonnie will die ^^ Since the event is going to be "show changing" I don't think it will be Matt... talking about Matt.. I want some sex scenes of Zach Roerig!! Maybe with a good look at his ass :P
Steven is so fucking HOT!! damn
anyway can you pm the slash series you are talking about? i have no idea what that is
thank you
FUCK THAT.....im so over vampire diaries for what they did last night.....i cant even tell you how fuckin pissed off i am

Enter Dissociative: Pushing Against the Norm
In November 2013, WSU Shift Space hosts Dissociative: Pushing Against the Norm, a regional MFA candidate exhibition juried by Jodi Throckmorton, Curator, Ulrich Museum of Art, Wichita State University.
The exhibition seeks artworks in all media investigating the concept of dissociation by transgressing boundaries. What do we do to reject, remake, or reinvent the world around us? "Dissociative" can be innovative and/or disconnected, run against the grain, cross boundaries that seemed initially impenetrable, not go with the flow. What are you pushing against? Is this action cultural, emotional, formal, individual? This exhibition seeks to explore the risks and rewards that come with challenging and reinventing. Artists are encouraged to interpret the theme creatively. A Juror's Selection of $400 will be awarded to one entrant. The fee is $15 for up to five entries; entrants must be currently enrolled in an MA or MFA Studio Art graduate program in KS, CO, NE, MO, OK, SD, WY, NM, TX, IA, or AR.

Pants Party 2 is one month away!
milwaukee brewers June 16th, 2012
We are now one month away from Miller Park Drunk's Pants Party 2 and somehow there are still tickets available. I don't know why. It's a great deal and you get to drink with some of the coolest people around (and Tyler.) We're drinking, we're eating, we're playing games and we're giving a ton of stuff away in a raffle. It's going to be a good time. So why aren't we sold out?
Well, I have a theory. You see about a year ago I broke up with my girlfriend and somehow thought writing terrible blog posts would get her back. (It didn't. Thank god.) What I didn't think of at the time was that I sounded like a total pussy and a year later nobody would want to come to my Pants Party because they think I have no balls. Seriously, look at this:
Not trying to get too "inside baseball" here, but the truth is that when you stop being yourself you stop being someone that people like to spend time with. Being "the" Miller Park Drunk all the time was a stupid goal and I've changed in a way where that isn't what I want to do anymore, but that doesn't mean that I want to stop having great times at Brewers games.
(Excuse me I have to stab myself in the eye with a lead based pencil a few times. Be right back.) Read the rest of this entry »

The scene yesterday in the Chantilly West Ballroom at the Winter Meetings would be one of the greatest fantasies a baseball fan could ever have. Each year, all 30 Major League managers gather for a special reception and lunch with members of the Baseball Writers Association of America. Standing within a couple thousand square feet are the Who's Who of big league skippers. Joe Madden, sporting a pair of his distinctive eyewear and a slick sports coat, is at one end of the room, sharing an anecdote or two with a national baseball writer. A's manager Bob Melvin, certainly no stranger to this annual event, having experienced two previous managerial stints with Milwaukee and Arizona, is surrounded by two other Northern California-born managers in Cincinnati's Dusty Baker and Dale Sveum, the new field general of the Chicago Cubs.
Over at the drink line is former Yankee great Don Mattingly, the Los Angeles Dodgers' manager, talking to an old friend, Buck Showalter, the Baltimore Orioles' skipper. And, of course, there's the man in perpetual motion, new Marlins' manager Ozzie Guillen, who has already generated as much buzz for the re-born Miami franchise as the signing of Jose Reyes, Heath Bell and Mark Buerhle during these meetings. Even for someone as jaded as me, who has worked in professional sports for three decades, I find the managers luncheon to be a true spectacle. Where else can you find 30 high-profile leaders in one location outside of a NATO or U.S.-European Union Summit?
Yesterday reminded me of the first time I had the privilege to attend a private dinner in Cooperstown, hosted by Jane Forbes Clark, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Baseball Hall of Fame. It was held prior to the induction ceremonies that particular weekend. It was a wonderful affair, and like any life-long baseball fan, I felt like the proverbial kid in the candy store. All of my childhood heroes had come to life, with Hall of Famers standing in the buffet line ahead and behind me. It was baseball's version of the movie Night at the Museum. Former stars tended to flock together by team. There at one table were former Baltimore Orioles, including Brooks Robinson and Jim Palmer. Meanwhile, I was in the food line discussing entrée choices with Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan and Tony Perez of the Big Red Machine. Sometimes we take things for granted, but when you are dropped in the middle of living and breathing Hall of Famers, you quickly realize this is a pretty fun gig.
As for A's Assistant GM David Forst, subbing for Billy Beane with the Bay Area journalists, he seemed to have a little fun himself in bantering back and forth. Only the past few hours, Twitter posts were coming in at a dizzying pace, noting multiple teams that allegedly have shown interest in some of the A's top pitchers. Forst would not confirm any specifics, but he did acknowledge there was significant interest shown by teams he or Billy had spoken with earlier in the day. While David said, point blank, that there would be no deals consummated last night, he did say they have a better idea of the current landscape than they did when they arrived in Dallas Sunday.
This morning, us remaining A's staff members attended the Rule 5 Draft, and will soon board flights and be on our way home. Thanks for following our blog this week. I hope it gave you some insight on the proceedings. Pitchers and catchers report to Phoenix in 41 days. The season nears.

B.C. NDP candidate Marji Basso resigns in Boundary-Similkameen
The B.C. NDP has lost its candidate in Boundary-Similkameen due to "personal reasons".
New Democrat provincial secretary Jan O'Brien announced today (January 21) that Marji Basso has informed the party she is stepping down.
"We accept Ms. Basso's resignation," O'Brien said in a news release. "We will be working with the local NDP constituency association to begin the candidate nomination process as quickly as possible."
Basso's resignation follows the B.C. Liberals' decision to prevent Boundary-Similkameen MLA John Slater from running for reelection under that party's banner due to "personal issues".
On January 14, Slater announced he was leaving the B.C. Liberal caucus to sit as an independent.
Today, Slater confirmed he won't run in the upcoming election and blamed the "politics of personal destruction".
"We have reached a profoundly disturbing point in our politics in British Columbia. Instead of a campaign about positive ideas, good policy, and what is best for British Columbians, we are instead witnessing a campaign based on fear and smear. B.C. deserves better," Slater said in a statement.
"I cannot put my family or myself through the continual barrage of innuendos and smear which have been launched against me, and which will continue until I withdraw as a candidate in the upcoming provincial election. So I say, 'Enough.'"
The next B.C. election is scheduled for May 14.
Personally, I don't care if John Slater can represent 'the Party'. John Slater was elected to represent his constituents not the party executive.
Why an NDP candidate would favor a toxic project put forward by the BC Liberals is beyond me, especially given that no cost benefit analysis was ever presented on that issue. Just promises of untold economic benefits. There would be "no risks whatsoever", and hapless South Okanagan politicians were sucked in, imaginary dollar signs reflecting in their eyeballs.
Surrey and Kamloops mayors have stated in the media that BC provincial prisons have brought social and economic negatives to their large cities. How will wee Oliver, not to mention other small communities in the area, survive those impacts? Do their social service agencies and police forces need even more caseloads?
Oliver has panache and promise as a wine capital, a place with far more economic potential from agriculture, tourism, and recreation. It could become a prosperous "edge town" like Canmore, Alberta, if a National Park happens. But then, the politicians who are worried about the park are, in some cases, the ones who are excited about the jail. Bizarre, isn't it?
At the project proposal's public meeting in Penticton, BC Corrections officials admitted that this facility is being built to federal maximum security standards, and that it could be turned into a federal prison at any time. Is that what's planned for Slater and Basso's Oliver area?
Hopefully the NDP and BC Liberals will find new candidates who have the intellect and courage to tell their leaders that this region is not the place for a gigantic prison. Sure, we should deal with our fair share of inmates, but not 21% of all inmates in BC for Pete's sake. This regional district has only 1.4% of BC's residents.
The BC Liberals' poorly thought out decision for a prison location is a sack of snakes for the South Okanagan, and the NDP should take a stand on this that reflects its party's perceived aims of social justice and a sustainable economy.
The BC Liberals give Vancouver a free Convention Center and half a billion bucks for a Stadium upgrade. Their elected reps here think a prison that nobody else wants is a BC Liberal "gift" to us. Hopefully the NDP does not agree. There is still time for them to question this as no construction contract has been signed.
Please be more specific.

A.W. McCune, Pres. David Eccles Vice Pres. W.L. Hoge Secty. C.W. Nibley, Treas. R.C. Lund. Jos. F. Smith. Richard Mackintosh. Thomas D. Dee } Directors UTAH & PACIFIC RAILROAD CO. MODENA 40 niles from Milford Via. Lund, Utah,Feby 23rd. 1899 1899. Hon. David Eccles Esqr. Vice Prest. U. &. P. R. R. Dear Brother: Ellerbecks leter is just recd, wherein you suggest the purchase of Saunders of sufficient water from the Mountain Springs to supply the Lund Station. I would say that I have made several trips to the said Springs and also made several triangulations to ascertain their exact distance from the track and find them to be too far away to be utilized without very heavy expense. They are at least ten miles from LUND and seven and a half by actual measurement from the nearest p point on our line. I therefore abandoned the idea long since of trying to utilize them. As to water for sheep shearing pens, I think we can get along with what little the well now supplies by sinking a few open wells out from the Station a mile or so on which to hold the sheep until required. Several wells of the kind exist from which water is drawn with a horse and large flocks of sheep watered. I do not think therefore that this need stand in the way of shearing here altogether although the obtainment of a good flow of water here seems imperatively necessary for our Engines and other purposes. 0ur water bill last month was about an hundred dollars and with each mile added to our road the demand will increase. For this the 0. S. L. demand the cash. I am to meet a lot of sheep men tomorrow at the little mountain East of LUND to discuss the question of shearin pens and on Sunday go to Cedar on the same business. I wish I could get an experession of your views on the subject soon as there is already a movement on foot by the Par-owan people who are opposed to all the Cedar does apparently,to build shearing pens at MudSprings, a point toward Milford and from which we would have to break our rate to compete with team haul. We must forestall this if possible. Referring again to the Mountain Springs owned By Saunders would say that same are nearest our line at a point seven miles and a half West of Lundwhere it is 7 l/2 miles distant. I have had another letter from the Southworth Bros, about two cars of three inch plank that they offer cheap and about which I wrote you several days ago. Will you please let me know as soon as you can what answer to make to them. Also please send me the deed to my home so that I can give it to my wife before I go in. Yours Truly P. S. Ellerbeck has Just written me that he has made a rate on beer in car shipments of 12 cts. Milford to Lund or forty two cents St. Lake to Lund in connection with the 0. S. L. Our regular rate is 17 cts. I wrote him that I considered it too low as beer could not be shipped by team from Milford at any price, as the wagon haul would spoil it. and even if it could the teams could not meet our regular rate of 17 cents and hence there was absolotuly no necessity for the rate to be thus cut up. Now I dont speak of this with a desire to be finding fault or raising a disturbance with Ellerbeck, but simply to call your atten tion to the necessity for the rate making authority to be lodged in some certain one person, and that person to be in touch with the conditions of the country and trade. Now you may ask why I dont call in down to which I can only say that while I have voluntarily offered to assist in making rates I havent been given any authority by the Board or any one less to take exclusive charge of these or any other matters outside of what appertains to the office of Chief Engr Otherwise I would be as mandatory upon this and other matters as you, could wish. Parties here want to furnis h us some cedar ties but cant afford to do so for less than 55 cents, I think them a cheap tie at the price and as they are not apt to get out very many anyway would ot not be best to give them 55 cts for what they can furnish.

Atoms For Peace took the stage at Roseland moments after my iPad (j/k) lit up with a NYTimes alert about the Pentagon's new limits on when the U.S. can use nuclear weapons.
"For the first time, the United States is explicitly committing not to use nuclear weapons against nonnuclear states that are in compliance with the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, even if they attacked the United States with biological or chemical weapons or launched a crippling cyberattack."
This is potentially a big a fucking deal, and I'd like to think it's why Thom Yorke wore a smile throughout the NYC debut of his newish band, named after Eisenhower's famous speech to the UN General Assembly (and its Eraser namesake).
A4P's setlist was almost identical to what we saw at the Orpheum last fall, focusing heavily on the Radiohead frontman's '06 solo LP, with Thom alternating between piano and guitar. Flea, in a white Minutemen shirt (the rest of the band wore black), still emits boundless energy (and blue hair) at 47. The Chili Pepper hung in the shadows for only minutes before tearing up center stage for the coda of opener "The Eraser" alongside a bracing cameo from NoLa jazz trumpeter Christian Scott. Sorry for the blown out sound of my video, but you have to watch this (skip to 3m25s perhaps):
The encore began with a mellow NEW ballad Thom performed without Nigel, Joey, Mauro, or Mr. Balzary. The fansites are calling this "Let Me Take Control" or "Chris Hodge." Pick a name, fansites! (UPDATE: We're going with "Chris Hodge.") Here's that:
Also in attendance: Michael Stipe (fun fact: it was the 30th anniversary of R.E.M.'s first ever show), David Byrne, Albert Hammond Jr., Chris Taylor, and plenty of other local rockers. Indeed I saw buzzed about opener Flying Lotus, as much as a short dude with terrible eyesight can see someone crouch behind a strobelit laptop from the very back of Roseland. (He went on at 8PM sharp. If you're going tonight don't be late.) FlyLo's much-anticipated Cosmogramma (out 5/4 on Warp) is a chill jazztronica trip on headphones (he samples cuz Ravi Contrane on one track, Thom sings on another), but in concert the DJ brought beats that nearly blew the venue's speakers. The set ended with with a breakbeat "Idioteque." Tease.
01 "The Eraser"
02 "Analyse"
03 "The Clock"
04 "Black Swan"
05 "Skip Divided"
06 "Atoms For Peace"
07 "And It Rained All Night"
08 "Harrowdown Hill"
09 "Cymbal Rush"
10 "Chris Hodge" (Thom solo) [new song]
11 "The Daily Mail" (Thom solo)
12 "Everything In Its Right Place" (Thom solo)
13 "Paperbag Writer"
14 "Judge. Jury. Executioner."
15 "Hollow Earth"
16 "Pulled Apart by Horses"
A cool limited-edition Atoms For Peace tour t-shirt set me back a whopping $40. Knowing Thom (I do not know Thom), W.A.S.T.E. will probably be donating some of this money to fight tar sands.
UPDATE: Here's the set list for Atoms For Peace's April 6 show. They played all of The Eraser:
01 "The Eraser"
02 "Analyse"
03 "The Clock"
04 "Black Swan"
05 "Skip Divided"
06 "Atoms For Peace"
07 "And It Rained All Night"
08 "Harrowdown Hill"
09 "Cymbal Rush"
10 "All For The Best" (Mark Mulachy cover) (Thom solo)
11 "Fog" (Thom solo)
12 "Everything In Its Right Place" (Thom solo)
13 "Paperbag Writer"
14 "Judge, Jury and Executioner"
15 "The Hollow Earth"

Kadner: Jesse Jackson Jr.'s woes could lift airport near Peotone
By Phil Kadner firstname.lastname@example.com November 12, 2012 5:36PM
A sign marks land acquired by the State of Illinois along Rt. 50 and Eagle Lake Road near Peotone for the proposed third airport Thursday, September 27, 2012. | Brett Roseman~Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: December 14, 2012 6:18AM
U.S. Rep Jesse Jackson Jr.'s legal and personal problems actually might be a boon to his dream of a south suburban airport.
Although Jackson (D-2nd) has been the chief cheerleader for the airport for 17 years, he also had become perhaps the biggest stumbling block to regional unity.
"We have always been willing to reach out to the Cook County suburbs, the state Legislature, anyone who was willing to help us get this airport built," said John Grueling, president and chief executive of the Will County Center for Economic Development. "We would certainly be willing to talk to anyone about a compromise that could lead to regional cooperation."
Jackson, 47, won re-election last week without campaigning. He has been away from Congress since early June, getting treatment for depression related to bipolar disorder.
He was behind the formation of the Abraham Lincoln National Airport Commission (ALNAC), mostly a group of Cook County suburbs that had designs on becoming the governing authority for an airport near Peotone.
But some in Will County, where the property for the airport is located, resented what they viewed as Jackson's interloping. His family history — his father is civil rights leader the Rev. Jesse Jackson — also carried baggage with some in Will County.
County officials and many of the mayors whose towns surround the airport site want the Legislature to create a governing authority to give them control of any airport.
But with House Speaker Michael Madigan (D-Chicago) and Senate President John Cullerton (D-Chicago) now having veto-proof majorities in the General Assembly, the chances of any third airport legislation passing are unrealistic.
"(Former) Mayor (Richard M.) Daley indicated that he wouldn't stand in the way if the airport didn't interfere with O'Hare Airport expansion," Grueling said. "But (Mayor) Rahm Emanuel has been clear, 'No way. No how.' "
Daley was accused of using his influence in the Clinton administration to remove the south suburban airport from the Federal Aviation Administration's list of priority projects. Emanuel, the former chief of staff for President Barack Obama, has much stronger ties to the White House than Daley ever had.
It seems clear to me that if the south suburban airport is going to get built, it will take a united effort by South Cook and Will counties. And even with that there are no guarantees.
While the FAA is studying the state's plans to build the airport, its position has been that it would not give final approval to the project unless a governing authority was in place.
The state of Illinois has continued acquiring land for the airport that would have to be transferred to any airport authority, but Gov. Pat Quinn has given no indication that he's willing to act as Solomon in the dispute between Will and Cook counties.
But members of ALNAC — Park Forest, University Park, South Holland, Calumet Park and Elk Grove Village — have to realize that without Jackson backing them, the commission has lost its opportunity to be that governing authority.
North suburban Elk Grove Village, which initially put up the financing that launched ALNAC, has been another stumbling block. Will County officials don't believe that a community near O'Hare should have a voice in a south suburban airport.
Sources tell me that Elk Grove Village could be persuaded to bow out if a new governing body were committed to constructing the airport.
Another factor that could lead to renewed urgency to get something done is the 2014 gubernatorial election. While Quinn has said the airport remains a priority of his, there's a good chance that a Republican challenger, or another Democrat, would hold a dimmer view of the project.
With Illinois financially struggling, a gubernatorial candidate might well contend that the state would be better off if the land acquired for the airport were sold.
American and United airlines, which have a virtual monopoly at O'Hare, and Southwest Airlines, which is in a similar position at Midway Airport, also oppose competition from a third airport and would exert their political influence.
Finally, Jackson's presence has been something of a unifying force for Will County governments. Once he's removed from the picture, the county government might find itself battling with municipalities for control of the airport.
"I've always been a little skeptical about the ability of a governing body representing 10 or 11 different suburbs to reach decisions," Grueling said. "It has all the makings of a possible nightmare trying to get everyone to agree."
If they don't agree now to join forces to support the south suburban airport, the window of opportunity may soon close for good.
Jackson's sense of ownership of the airport ultimately became an impediment to its construction.
But I've publicly questioned the desire of Will County officials to see this thing through to completion.
If Southland government, business and community leaders really want the airport to happen, now is the time for them to extend their hands in friendship. An intergovernmental agreement is more of a possibility today than it was a few weeks ago.
I believe this project could eventually create thousands of jobs, result in new commercial ventures and generate millions in revenue for Southland governments.
It's not going to happen unless bold leaders with vision step forward. Congressman Jackson is no longer an excuse for inaction and obstruction.
There are people depending on leaders in Cook and Will counties to put aside their differences to create jobs and new economic opportunities.
This is too big a project to be stymied by personal agendas or shortsighted parochialism.
