Me and my incredible knack for scheduling trips over the World Series (think: the whole Deserts-of-Africa-in-NYC-deal last year) are going to be vacating the Bay Area for the next week or so. In between the City of Angels chewing me up with long tan legs and spitting me out with bleached blonde hair (exaggeration? Yes. Mostly certainly yes. But still…) I will attempt to watch the World Series and blog.
So. Roadtrip Time!
And yes, Darren Holland rulez with a z. With that fabulous win, the world is back at rights and my nightmares have disappeared.
Hasta la vista, Bay Area. I can't say I'm sad to be leaving, what with the million and a half earthquakes you've thrown at me the past week. And anyway, I never liked you as much minus my Giants.

The word of the Lord first revealed to Samuel. (1-10) God tells Samuel the destruction of Eli's house. (11-18) Samuel established to be a prophet. (19-21)
Verses 1-10 The call which Divine grace designs shall be made effectual; will be repeated till it is so, till we come to the call. Eli, perceiving that it was the voice of God that Samuel heard, instructed him what to say. Though it was a disgrace to Eli, for God's call to be directed to Samuel, yet he told him how to meet it. Thus the elder should do their utmost to assist and improve the younger that are rising up. Let us never fail to teach those who are coming after us, even such as will soon be preferred before us, ( John 1:30 ) . Good words should be put into children's mouths betimes, by which they may be prepared to learn Divine things, and be trained up to regard them.
Verses 11-18 What a great deal of guilt and corruption is there in us, concerning which we may say, It is the iniquity which our own heart knoweth; we are conscious to ourselves of it! Those who do not restrain the sins of others, when it is in their power to do it, make themselves partakers of the guilt, and will be charged as joining in it. In his remarkable answer to this awful sentence, Eli acknowledged that the Lord had a right to do as he saw good, being assured that he would do nothing wrong. The meekness, patience, and humility contained in those words, show that he was truly repentant; he accepted the punishment of his sin.
Verses 19-21 All increase in wisdom and grace, is owing to the presence of God with us. God will graciously repeat his visits to those who receive them aright. Early piety will be the greatest honour of young people. Those who honour God he will honour. Let young people consider the piety of Samuel, and from him they will learn to remember their Creator in the days of their youth. Young children are capable of religion. Samuel is a proof that their waiting upon the Lord will be pleasing to him. He is a pattern of all those amiable tempers, which are the brightest ornament of youth, and a sure source of happiness.
1 Samuel 3:1-10 . THE LORD APPEARS TO SAMUEL IN A VISION.
1. the child Samuel ministered unto the Lord before Eli--His ministry consisted, of course, of such duties in or about the sanctuary as were suited to his age, which is supposed now to have been about twelve years. Whether the office had been specially assigned him, or it arose from the interest inspired by the story of his birth, Eli kept him as his immediate attendant; and he resided not in the sanctuary, but in one of the tents or apartments around it, assigned for the accommodation of the priests and Levites, his being near to that of the high priest.
the word of the Lord was precious in those days--It was very rarely known to the Israelites; and in point of fact only two prophets are mentioned as having appeared during the whole administration of the judges ( Judges 4:4 , 6:8 ).
there was no open vision--no publicly recognized prophet whom the people could consult, and from whom they might learn the will of God. There must have been certain indubitable evidences by which a communication from heaven could be distinguished. Eli knew them, for he may have received them, though not so frequently as is implied in the idea of an "open vision."
3. ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of the Lord--The "temple" seems to have become the established designation of the tabernacle, and the time indicated was towards the morning twilight, as the lamps were extinguished at sunrise (see Leviticus 6:12 Leviticus 6:13 ).
5-18. he ran unto Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me--It is evident that his sleeping chamber was close to that of the aged high priest and that he was accustomed to be called during the night. The three successive calls addressed to the boy convinced Eli of the divine character of the speaker, and he therefore exhorted the child to give a reverential attention to the message. The burden of [the Lord's message] was an extraordinary premonition of the judgments that impended over Eli's house; and the aged priest, having drawn the painful secret from the child, exclaimed, "It is the Lord; let him do what seemeth him good." Such is the spirit of meek and unmurmuring submission in which we ought to receive the dispensations of God, however severe and afflictive. But, in order to form a right estimate of Eli's language and conduct on this occasion, we must consider the overwhelming accumulation of judgments denounced against his person, his sons, his descendants--his altar, and nation. With such a threatening prospect before him, his piety and meekness were wonderful. In his personal character he seems to have been a good man, but his sons' conduct was flagrantly bad; and though his misfortunes claim our sympathy, it is impossible to approve or defend the weak and unfaithful course which, in the retributive justice of God, brought these adversities upon him.

US Secretary of Defence Leon Panetta will meet Afghan President Hamid
Karzai on Wednesday after arriving in Kabul to reaffirm America's
commitment to Afghanistan.
The Pentagon chief, who says violence is falling in the country where the
United States has been at war with the Taliban for 10 years, will also
meet Defence Secretary Abdul Rahim Wardak and pay a visit to US troops.
Panetta's two-day visit comes as Washington starts to withdraw combat
troops and hand over security to Afghan forces, who are due to take full
control by the end of 2014.
It also comes after America's fragile alliance with Pakistan plunged into
further crisis when NATO air strikes killed 24 Pakistani soldiers near the
Afghan border on November 26.
Arriving in Kabul on Tuesday Panetta said he believed 2011 would mark a
"turning point" in Afghanistan where "troops have been able to reduce the
levels of violence".
A senior US defence official speaking on condition of anonymity said the
meeting with Wardak would focus on the increasing role of Afghan security
forces as transition moves forward and they begin to take the lead.
Panetta met General John Allen, the US commander in Afghanistan, on
Tuesday who said US troops would increasingly turn to a more advisory role
as security is handed over.
"We are going to probably see the introduction, timely yet to be
determined, of some advisory forces to support ANSF (Afghan National
Security Forces) formations from inside," Allen said.
The United States has announced the withdrawal of 10,000 of its roughly
100,000 troops by the end of the year, while 23,000 others will leave the
country by the end of September 2012 after the summer "fighting season".
The number corresponds to the 33,000 "surge" troops ordered in by
President Barack Obama in late 2009 in a bid to reverse the Taliban
insurgency, defeat Al-Qaeda and quicken an end to the war.
Panetta said it was important to reach out to Pakistan, where US officials
want Islamabad to dismantle Afghan militant havens.
Pakistan shut the US supply line into landlocked Afghanistan after the
November 26 attack. It said the blockade could last weeks longer, and
forced Americans to leave an air base widely reported to have been a hub
for CIA drones.
US officials have accused Pakistan of supporting the Afghan Taliban and
its Haqqani faction, whose leaders are based on Pakistani soil.

US defence boss makes unannounced Afghanistan trip
KABUL, Dec 13 (Reuters) - US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta arrived in
Kabul on Tuesday for an unannounced visit at a time of persistent
violence and as the United States and its Western allies are reducing
troop levels in Afghanistan.
Panetta's visit comes on the heels of bomb attacks on Shi'ite Muslim
ceremonies in three Afghan cities. Afghan President Hamid Karzai said
the attacks killed 80 people.
NATO commanders say that a "surge" of more than 30,000 U.S. troops in
2009-2010 helped push the Taliban out of some areas of its southern
But the United Nations and other groups say violence nationwide is at
its worst since U.S.-backed Afghan forces toppled the Taliban from power
in late 2001.
Afghanistan's future remains unclear as the government and its Western
allies race to train and expand the national police and army while
foreign troops start heading home.
The Obama administration plans to withdraw its surge troops by the end
of next fall, leaving about 68,000 American soldiers.
Most foreign combat troops are expected to leave by the end of 2014,
when the Afghan government is due to have complete control of security
across the country.
The gradual transition to Afghan control began this summer, and a second
phase announced late last month will mean more than half the population
is living in areas where security has been handed over officially.

By Josh O'Gorman
Staff Writer
CHITTENDEN — An attorney representing a local family who have had a series of confrontations with their neighbor is looking for a way to take away the neighbor's guns.
Attorney William Meub has filed a lawsuit in Rutland civil court on behalf of Christopher M. Clark against Clark's neighbor, Glenn H. Delpha Sr., seeking unspecified damages. The dispute between
Delpha and the Clark family did not begin in civil court, but in criminal court following a series of escalating incidents this past winter.
On Christmas Eve, according to records filed in Rutland criminal court, state police responded to Ice Pond Road, which is shared by both Clark and Delpha. Affidavits state Delpha had blocked Clark's vehicle in another neighbor's driveway and was preventing Clark from leaving.
Affidavits also state Delpha struck Clark's vehicle multiple times with a shovel. According to police, Delpha told police he owns Ice Pond Road and Clark was trespassing.
Police returned for a second conflict in January for a standoff between Delpha and Clark after Delpha prevented Clark's family from visiting him, claiming Clark was the only person allowed to use the road, records state.
For the two incidents, Delpha was charged with two counts of disorderly conduct and a single count of unlawful mischief, but those charges were dismissed last week in Rutland criminal court after Judge Theresa S. DiMauro found Delpha was not competent to stand trial.
"My clients have abandoned their home," Meub said. "They're not out there because the system will not protect them."
The Clarks have since rented a home in Proctor, Meub said.
"This lawsuit is not about money. It's about how the system is not protecting people," Meub said. "Glenn Delpha was charged with a violent crime. He has threatened people in the past, but because he is mentally incompetent to stand trial, he has no criminal record."
And because Delpha has no criminal record, Meub said, the criminal court lacks the authority to take away his guns. His clients have a no-stalking order against Delpha, but Meub would like to see a change in the law to prevent further escalation of violence.
"We need a law that would permit state police to take away his guns and prevent him from buying any more," Meub said. "In light of the Naval attack, and all of the other attacks, this is something we need to bring to light."
While Delpha was declared incompetent to stand trial, he has not been found incompetent by the state, meaning the state currently has no authority to take away his guns.
And while he was declared incompetent to stand trial in criminal court, he is competent enough to represent himself in civil court.
Repeated attempts to reach Delpha by telephone were not successful.

Map It!
Founded in 1936 as Sugar Kake Cookie, the Tonawanda plant was acquired by Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. in 1998 and included in the company?s Bremner Food Group. The facility produces traditional sandwich cremes in various flavors.
As a part of Ralcorp Holdings, Inc.?s Bremner Food Group, the Tonawanda manufacturing facility has benefited from participation in energy reduction programs from the plant, division, and corporate levels. Key to this coordinated reduction initiative has been the ability to share in new ideas across multiple facilities and business units. This effort has resulted in successfully implementing projects that replaced existing lights with energy-efficient lighting, motion-sensor lighting controls in non-manufacturing areas, and improved energy efficiency of oven burners. In addition, the plant has been able to upgrade equipment on various plant utility systems, which has further improved its energy efficiency.
The employees of Bremner Food Group?s Tonawanda facility are proud to be one of the plants earning the 2010 ENERGY STAR certification, which is the first year that commercial bakeries have been eligible to earn the certification.

The biggest issue as I see it was a lack of planning and forsight by the RNC and RCMP regarding our heightened economy brought on by OIL. It seems Danny gave the RNC the money but they didn't know how to use it. The current day police officer is too busy tryning to find ways out of doinfg their job. Its the courts fault, they let the bad guys go. Its your fault becasue you never had a proper lock. Its everybody's fault but the police. The fact is there are too many incompetent police officers out there wearing a uniform. They want the glamor and the high pay but they are afraid to do their jobs. The safest placdes right now are the doughnut shops and restaurants where you will always see a cop. Why is it that the management in the police force can not see this? Probably becasue they themselves did the same thing.I have zero confidence in the RNC or the mounties for that matter. The way they handled Bay Bulls a couple of years ago said it all. They had the place surrounded and let a gun man get away.

Recently I was stopped at a crosswalk to allow some teenagers, both male and female, to cross the street on their way back to school from lunch break. Suddenly a few of them started pounding on the front of my car and looking at me laughing. Very, very slowly I started to drive my car back into a drugstore parking lot. A couple of them screamed that I had run over their feet and said they were taking down my license plate number and phoning the police. I was so upset that I came straight home and called the police telling them about the situation, but mainly to find out if anyone reported to them that a female driver had run over his foot. I'd be devastated if I had. I even called the hospital emergency rooms because I was so concerned, but no one had showed up. This was right smack in the middle of the day and at least a dozen or more teenagers having a great laught at my expense.

I have spent literally years, in range of time, and hundreds of hours, in depth of time, trying to get some answers from the higher ups in the police, both local and federal, re two incidents to which I was inadvertent witness. I reported the first one to a bank officer as the incident took place in a bank, and the RNC got in touch with me, and the detective who talked to me gave me a lot of information concerning the man I had seen in the bank (who died in police custody two hours after I saw him). Because the detective said, "I could lose my job over this," I said nothing for years, although I noticed that the young man's death was not reported in the press. Strange, considering that the detective also told me that the young man had been interrogated "three or four times" in the Dana Bradley investigation. I've tried to see Chief Robert Johnston...no luck...and the RCMP don't answer any questions...rather the opposite: they put up obstacles. Why? The second incident relates to ten people on an Air Canada jet exhibiting very suspicious behaviour over several hours...the plane was less than half full and very quiet...the individuals bore striking similarities to the number and culture of individuals involved in "9-11", After reporting this to the stewardess and being interviewed by the pilot, the latter asked me to send in a report the same day to Transport Canada. Very odd, no one has ever mentioned this incident from that day to this, and I've been in touch with every security force both national and international. So, people...do you trust the highter ups? Well, I do not. They are not competent nor honest, sometimes, as in these two incidents. The policeman on the street and who do the day to day jobs are courteous and competent for the most part but their bosses are busy covering up. Why???

What kind of crime do I fear the most? Any kind of crime! Our adult apartment building is suppose to be secure. Tenants are suppose to be the only ones that have a key. Anyone visiting has to buzz the tenant to have the door opened. However, there are strangers coming and going all the time. Even with this so-called secure system, I am still nervous to answer my door, and most times won't. I don't go out after dark any more in recent years, except to go to Church. So sad to realize that our little Province is following the modern day lifestyle of violence, drugs, excessive drinking, etc., and the consequences to innocent people as a result. I realize that our parents and the Nuns were overboard with their discipline, but there got to be some kind of degree of discipline. Make the laws tougher. Make the punishments tougher. Sometimes I look at a program on T.V. called "Scared Straight". That's what every teenager who commits any kind of crime should have to go through to, hopefully, bring them to their senses before it too darn late. Parents, for heavens sake, take back control and be the parent.

Steve, If citizens do what you suggest, no matter how much we would like to do it, then we end up in court or jail. Consequently, the ball keeps going around and around ending up nowhere, except getting bigger. Most parents and teachers are actually afraid of their teenagers these days, and can even be brought up on abuse charges in some situations. A child's behaviour has to be nipped in the bud at toddler age, pre-school age, and elementary school age. It's too late when they reach high school.

To the last poster "J", Your last sentence is sarcasm, or a joke, right? You can love your children/child to no end, but when they get out on their own, or in with the wrong friends, or peer pressure, or any number of reasons, some do turn down the wrong road of crimes, alcoholism, drugs, etc. And our so-called justice system needs to get tougher, thus some may change their way of living before it's too late.

What we need in Canada is the Castle Doctrine. The problem is 40 years of Liberal rule have brainwashed people into thinking they shouldn't be allowed to defend themselves or their home. The Police are not reliable and I really wouldn't count on them to ensure the safety of my family. It probably takes them 5 to 10 minutes to get to your house and this an eternity when some has broken into your house while you and your family are in it. Put some judges on the bench that will start dishing out some sentences. Set a few examples. But, don't blame the criminals, they weren't hugged enough as children...

The reason the criminal scum are getting brave is there there is a resounding lack of people willing to take a shovel and beat the living crap out of these punks. Until you're ready to grow a pair and take out these drugged up criminal freaks then you deserve to feel unsafe.

Well I am reading these comments and people are going on and on about how they feel, what they can or cannot do and so on. What does it accomplish? What we need is Punishment to fit the Crime. Wake up people and lobby your lawmakers - its time criminals got more than a slap on the wrist. If the punishment was severe enough the rest of us would get back our right to safety and freedom. Our veterans fought for freedom and now on a local level we are letting a few punks take that from us! Rise up! Do something about it. we have democracy.

Marg, there are a lot of places more dangerous than the area you speak of. I know from experience. I go to the convenience store, only a couple of minutes away, before dark, and now even the supermarket because I am nervous that someone will grab my purse, or worse. There are concrete steps leading to a parking lot near where I live, and teenagers are there practically every night, even school nights, drinking. When I was in school, we had to be in by seven and spend at least two hours at homework.

As safe as a pea in a pod and I pick-up people on George St. all night, what a bunch of wimps people around here have turned into. Anybody remember the wino's downtown years ago, the fights, kids getting beat up, murders etc... there are more people now so there are more incidents, nothing has changed very much only that the downtown patrons don't have as much "Class" as they did in years gone by.

Well Joe, Your drive a cab. You can put your foot on the gas and get away from any situation that threatens you, your probable a guy who can handle himself. The seniors and single women who ARE experiencing threatening situations and even confrontations are not sitting in a car they are sitting in their homes. They are afraid in their own homes. They are not whimps. They are alone and afraid. Not every woman or other vulnerable residents have family around the corner many live alone. I glad you feel safe but you must admit, there is a big difference between a single girl with a strange man trying to beat down her door to that a a fit man with a whole crew of more fit men at the end of a two way radio, sitting in a cab. Your threat level is not the same as a woman dialing 911 and police not showing up. You forget you are not alone you have the protection. We walk alone and there is a target on our backs, no two way radio to call our "buddies" or a dispatcher to contact police on our behalf. If you want to compare threat levels lets drop you off in bear country and have a Moma bear get pissed at you. Can you relate now? Momma bear is about to rip you to pieces, and there's no steel machine to protect you, just you and the bear. How's that safe as a pea pod feeling now?

I feel as safe as Joe, hunting season is here and it is time to head out to the cabin and trust me the bears will run away when we show up there..No wonder some people are afraid with all the hype from the media and their followers about a few property crimes, B.S. drug labs downtown fights which are now called assault. If the media came out everyday and said what a safe place NL is nobody would watch the show or read the paper. So they scour the courts for stories on what ever will get attention they are not quite as honorable as their predecessors..

To Scared Citizen: I hear you sister! I had a similar thing happen to me a number of years ago and the police officer who responded asked why a pretty girl like me would be walking alone anyway.! He made me feel like I had committed a crime by wanting the right to be safe while I walked down my own street. A strange man had chased me home and lurked outside my house, making a racket and terrifying my roommates and I. It is unbelievable that we three young women (might I add, respectable, articulate women who very clearly described what had happened) were treated like we had done something wrong and scolded like naughty little girls. And don't get me started on Water street - I'm not sure how it is that a woman walking down the street wearing sneakers and work-out clothes (who is CLEARLY exercising) could possibly get mistaken for a sex-trade worker. Maybe all those men who drive by reeeaaally slowly or pull over and ask me to get in really do just want to ask me for directions ... right?
- September 28, 2012 - 11:26
The crime that I'm most concerned with is people who insisted on driving impaired/drunk. I lost a loved one to an impaired driver in 2011. He was sentenced to 3 yrs in prison, n now he is eligible for day parole middle of Dec. 2012. The Gov't NEEDS to change the laws now (impaired/drunk driver + vehicle = loaded weapon), n deal with this 100% preventable crime. Change the laws to vehicular manslaughter. The penalities aren't stiff enough. In a blink of an eye, a loved one can be taken, or left with life altering injuries, n the families are left behind to try n pick up the pieces. Anybody that drives drunk/impaired has no respect for themselves or anybody else on the roads, when they make a conscious decision to get behind the wheel n drive in this condition. Go to YouTube n watch the Video TAC Campaign - 20year anniversary retrospective montage: "Everybody hurts", check out MADD Canada's face book page, Dont Drink And Drive facebook page, Families for Justice (Parents out of Surrey, BC who lost their young daughter in 2011, n have a petition to get the laws changed) facebook page. Just remember that when you drive impaired/drunk "the live you take may not be your own". Drive safe n drive sober!!

A few years ago I rented a small 1 bdrm apt in Cowan Hgts. In the early morning hours a drunken and obviously drugged up man started to beat at my door, he yelled, kicked the door, blew smoke, taunted me and laughed through the crack in the window. He became angry and started to kick the door yelling at me to "open the f#*king door for Seamus'. I placed three desperate 911 calls to the RNC but nobody showed. The next morning I walked to the RNC station downtown (as a young single girl my resources were limited so walking was the only option). I cried to person they had speak to me about what had happened as I wanted to file a complaint. Do you know what they did!?!! They sent the responding officer back to my apartment the next evening to explain himself and his actions. He sat at my kitchen table and told me that because it's hard to reach anyone at the RNC station after hours on their regular number that many people call 911 for a faster response therefore not all 911 calls are treated as an emergency. He advised that he picked up the man who attempted to break into my house around the corner (after I chased him away with a butcher knife which still took a lot of effort to make him leave) and drove said man home as he had had too much to drink. He refused to press charges stating that there was no proof the man attempted to break into my house even after I showed him the boot prints all over my door where he had been kicking it. He acted like I irritated him and was wasting his time. He shrugged his shoulders and smirked at me as I cried and pleaded with him to do his job. I have no faith in the RNC and would be hard pressed to call 911 ever again, but I think that's how they like it.
- carogers
- September 29, 2012 - 07:39
I strongly suggest you file a complaint. This is not an appropriate policing responce. Frankly his statement should incite an investigation into reasons why and how many of these non response to 911 call actuallly occur. How much of an emergency do they want? "There's a man kicking in my door" Ther officers attitude needs adjustng as well. Make an effort to get to know your neighbours there's safety in numbers. The butcher knife move worked but could have resulted differently and I do understand you acted in desperation.

- October 02, 2012 - 06:25

This is not the St. John's I grew-up in.... Our nine-year-old daughter is not permitted to leave our property alone. If we are not outside watching over her, then she isn't permitted to travel outside the plane of view from the front window of our home. When I was nine: I'd walk to and from school (couple of miles away); on the school team - I'd walk to and from hockey games; in summer I was permitted to leave our neighborhood and travel to my grand-mother's house by bicycle. Today,my daughter doesn't go to the store unattended. In our neighborhood.... We had a Domestic Dispute between a young couple. Neighbors placed three calls to the RNC over an hour - No response. Then, the female party attempted suicide by slicing her arm opened. And all this, on a sidewalk on our street @ 5pm in the afternoon, whilst small children were playing. Even inside our home our child is robbed of her innocence. Last November we were out doing some Christmas shopping. The babysitter called us to explain our daughter had been woken from her sleep and was upset. We came home to find our little girl was frantic and very nervous. She said; "Daddy I heard a big bang outside, and when I looked out my bedroom window, I saw the boy next-door with a baseball bat in his hands - Chasing someone up the street. The economic boom is bring much immoral and illegal activity.... How I wish the fishery still existed. My family would likely move out of the metro region to some small community on the south coast, where people still go to bed at night without locking their doors. But here in St. John`s one feels they must keep the doors locked even when you are at home. The legal system is not working. Police Officers are too busy to deal with all the `little calls` in a timely fashion. And when they do show-up it often appears they are unable to deal with the situations ("Oh yes sir, the offender is someone known to us - But, no charges, cause it`ll only be thrown out of court.") And if someone is charged and convicted, they get a slap on the wrist (ie. House Arrest having been convicted with possession of tens-of -thousands- worth of drugs).

thank god for a conservative majority government in ottawa. the government can now pass its crime bills without the liberal/ndp mumble-jumble. the conservatives are getting tough with murderers, rapist, robbers, drug dealers, and so on. just recently the conservatives deported a convicted drug dealer out of the country, and many more will follow. its time you newfies get on board and support this government who will clean up the mess left by those hug-a-thug liberals. you can have a say by giving your liberal/ndp mp's the boot the next election, who put criminals rights first, before the rights of law-biding citizens.

The quality of leadership & policing in the capitol city seems to going downhill. With brazen drug dens being operated out in the open, makes you wonder if their on the take to look the other way. Every other police force in the world has been hit by bribery scandals, I don't think we are immune to such dealings here.

If someone is breaking into your house, call the fire dept. You will have 18 large men with axes in the house withing 3 minutes. Call the cops and you'll have been robbed and or shot before they are done asking you questions over the phone. Best cast scenario you'll get a couple of teenagers show up a 1/2 hour later.

That phoney liberal document? You are an uninformed blow hard that has never seen or read the charter.. It recognizes primary fundamental freedoms (e.g. freedom of expression and of association), democratic rights (e.g. the right to vote), mobility rights (e.g. the right to live anywhere in Canada), legal rights (e.g. the right to life, liberty and security of the person) and equality rights, and recognizes the multicultural heritage of Canadians. It also protects official language and minority language education rights. In addition, the provisions of section 25 guarantee the rights of the Aboriginal peoples of Canada. THE CHARTER PROVIDES ALL THE FREEDOM YOU ENJOY IN YOUR LIFETIME. WOULD YOU RATHER IT NOT EXIST???

- Resident

We see the drug dealers operating with impunity in the parking lot at the corner store. We've seen houses and vehicles destroyed by fires set deliberately. We've reported criminal activity to the police only to have them show up an hour later - it's almost as if they are afraid to get involved. They do show up, but way too late to be of any benefit to the victims. The justice system needs to toughen it's stance against these low life losers. Until they are given punishments to suit the crimes, there will be no let up in the criminal activity in our city. We need a strong and tough police force who are willing to confront these criminals while they are engaged in their unlawful activities. As long as the police turn a blind eye, criminal activity will increase and law abiding citizens will be afraid to venture from their homes.

People who live in quite neighbourhoods, do not realize that living in the noisy area town I live in, has drugs, little children as early as two to three years old roaming the streets. Parent on drugs, and many with alcohol problems, and cops are in this area all the time. There are speeding cars, do not know how any child has been killed yet. With all the kids roaming I'm surprise no pedifiles hasn't got any child in the area yet because it is such a parent free neighbourhood, where the child raise themselves, I guess being street smart is helping them, but I really don't think so. When Child Protection is in the area, I can gareentee they aren't in the street then. Tell me what is wrong with this? Get their money, spend on drugs and alcohol and let their kids roam. Their are a few families down here who actually care if their children are out, and their education is first, sadly not enough. So if you think you have it bad where you live, because of one crime I gareentee you would't be able to live it without being strong and hard.

The economy is going well for 40% of people, but the rest are falling through the cracks.It's getting harder to make a living and survive if you aren't involved in big oil and gas or a tradesman. Some people will resort to selling and manufacturing drugs as a way of getting in on the action and this leads to more crime and problems.

I live on a quiet street in the center of the city and this past spring the house at the end of the street got rented out to drug dealers. The traffic starts on our street about lunch time and its steady until about 5 am. The characters walking the streets here are wild, there sites are fixated on the drug house. I see with my own eyes what drugs are doing to this city every single day and it scares me. We have phoned the police on the activity on our street but nothing has changed. We have our own little neighbourhood watch which is working for us right now.

Its funny people have had troublesome illigal activity all over the downtown. Rooming houses that are not monitored by the landlords, selling hard drugs and constantly drunk causing disturbances at all hours. Many neighburhoods have taken up petitions and presented them to council. Complaints to 311 fall on deaf ears, Residents are told the city sends letters to the landlords but speak to the landlord and they don't know anything about the letter and claim to be unaware of the problem, dispite the fact police are at their rental units every weekend. The neighbours have no peace their children have to kept away from these rooming houses as hanging around the step is common. Prostitutes accompany the men in these houses so this also brings the constant traffic of large trucks after dark on your street. Don't know why that is but large trucks slowing down and trying to get the attention of any walking female on one certain street are a constant problem, used condoms discarded on the sidewalk another hygene issue to add to the mix. There has already been an explosion that blew the basement door off a house about 3-years ago from an illegal lab. But now we have a nice neighbouthood like Albany st become effected by criminal actiivity and its front page news for several days. Not that it shouldn't but problem with neighbourhood criminals is an ongoing issue in many downtown streets. Finally some media attention may get theproblem addressed for all neighbours not just the so called nice ones. If a senior has raised their family in their downtown house the property is owned by them they have their garden and nehbours they have known for years why are they not allowed to enjoy the Canadian Charter rights of "peaceful enjoyment" ? Lawfull residents Charter rights are trampled in every neighbourhood not just the ones with unattached houses.

I just completed your survey, which I thought was poorly thought out. A couple of the questions, such as "what kind of crime to you fear the most" is a bit of a leading question. Most people are going about their lives without thinking a whole lot about crime happening to them, and all of a sudden you're assuming that people should be sitting at home fearing crime. It's the same post-911 hysteria that is resulting in St. John's having to have a giant half-million dollar fence along the waterfront, as if a cruise ship landing in St. John's is realistically going to be a terrorism target. Also, your question about whether the crime rate is increasing or decreasing is quite vague. You don't say whether you mean nationally, provincially, or in our own local areas - the answer could be quite different depending on which you choose. Where I fear this is going is a story saying everyone's afraid of crime, they're getting more and more anxious, and fewer and fewer parents are going to let their kids out to play in the neighbourhood, we'll spend oodles of money on video cameras everywhere, etc. We might get safer, but what are we losing in exchange? We'll be living in a society which is more and more fearful and less trusting. We'll be voluntarily trading our freedom for safety from a largely imaginary foe.

Steve where are you? "largely imaginary foe" I have lived in this city my whole life, I have traveled and retuned and I definately see a difference in the rate of crime in St. John's. It has become more violent, beatings that leave young people with brain damage, stabbings, line ups outside pharmacies for methadone, Hyperdermic needles along the walk way of Tessier Park, homeless people sleeping in door ways. You must live in the country where you aren't exposed everyday street activity.

European Microwave Week, AMSTERDAM, Netherlands (10/29/2012) - Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI), a global leader in high-performance semiconductors for signal-processing applications and leading provider of RF ICs (radio frequency integrated circuits), today announced the release of a PLL synthesizer that offers leading phase noise performance. An upgrade to the widely used 4-GHz ADF4153 fractional-N PLL, the new, pin- and software-compatible ADF4153A PLL synthesizer facilitates improved integrated phase noise in a variety of applications including communications infrastructure, pulse-Doppler and FMCW (frequency-modulated continuous-wave) radar applications, test and instrumentation equipment, microwave point-to-point systems, PMR (professional mobile radio), VSATs (very small aperture terminals) and aerospace systems. The new PLL is showcased this week at Analog Devices Booth 221.
With an RF bandwidth of 4 GHz, the ADF4153A PLL synthesizer consists of a low-noise digital phase frequency detector (PFD), a precision charge pump, a sigma-delta fractional-N divider and a programmable reference divider. When used together with an external VCO, the ADF4153A PLL can phase lock signals up to 4 GHz and can greatly improve the system integrated phase noise compared to the ADF4153, without requiring any significant board revisions. The ADF4153A displays market leading phase noise figure of merit (FOM) and PLL 1/f noise performance for a sub-100 mW part.
Product | Sample Availability | Full Production | Price Each In 1,000 Quantities | Packaging |
ADF4153A | Now | Now | $1.81 | 20-lead LFCSP |
The ADF4153A PLL synthesizer is well-suited to work with ADI's ADP150 low-noise LDO regulator, ADL5801 and ADL5802 RF mixers as well as the ADF4350 and ADF4351 PLL synthesizers.
Innovation, performance, and excellence are the cultural pillars on which Analog Devices has built one of the longest standing, highest growth companies within the technology sector.

Material: Water snakeskin and leather
Brand: Katherine Kwei

Ancient Chinese knot-tying techniques and the It bag of the season may seem like an unlikely combination, but Katherine Kwei pulls it off. Drawing inspiration from her own Chinese heritage, she gives her line of hip handbags a personal twist with gorgeously crafted details like fringing and knotting. And with a background at Louis Vuitton, she's well schooled in luxury. Some of Hollywood's most fashionable celebrities have already caught on: Sienna Miller, Taylor Momsen, and Blake Lively have been spotted out and about with these must-have hobos and satchels hanging off their arms.

HASKELL — After a year under Dwaine Fishburn as interim head coach, the Benton High School senior boys basketball team now has a full-time leader. Following a 6-0 vote at Monday's Benton School Board meeting, 2006 Benton graduate and current Harmony Grove senior boys head coach Dexter Hendrix was named to the helm of one of the most coveted coaching positions in the state—Benton Panther basketball. "I am very excited to go back to Benton and coach a great basketball program and help it continue to grow and take it to the next level," Hendrix said.
BENTON – After losing half its team and majority of its contributors to graduation a season after making it to the 6A state semifinals, the Benton Panthers mirrored last season with another semifinals trip, only to lose to the 2014 6A State Champion Jonesboro Hurricane (Jonesboro lost 34-33 to Bobby Portis' Hall team in finals last season) for the second consecutive season. But after being picked to finish in the middle of the pack in the 7A/6A South Conference this past season, the Panthers exceeded all expectations to win the conference with a 12-2 record.
HASKELL — The Harmony Grove Lady Cardinals finally got back on the diamond in 5-3A action Monday, playing host to a much-improved eStem squad. After Thursday's rainout, the Lady Cardinals were forced to reschedule and wait until Monday to get back in the swing of things. With LJ Helmich in the circle and bats finally waking up, Harmony Grove strolled away with a 10-1 win, thanks to a big 8-run third inning paced by five walks and a Mets' error.
RUSSELLVILLE – The Bryant Hornets track team competed in the Russellville Cyclone Invitational Friday night, earning a second-place finish in what is regarded as the biggest and most competitive regular season meet of the season in the state of Arkansas.  The Hornets scored 72.5 points to finish behind team champion  Bentonville (82 points).  Little Rock Central (66), Rogers Heritage (55), and Little Rock Catholic (47) finished out the top five teams.  Twenty four teams scored in the meet, which featured 13 out of the 16 teams in class 7A. Â
BENTON – Former Benton Lady Panthers senior forward Allison Reynolds was named to the 6A All-State Tournament Team, but the fact that Benton finished runner-up in the 6A South Conference to El Dorado, only two, not three, Lady Panthers were recognized as all state. Voted by the 6A South coaches, junior guard Braxton Chumley and junior forward Braylee Landreth got the two spots for Benton, but Reynolds was voted by the conference coaches as a top player in the state.
BENTON – The Benton Panthers were down early, but came back to defeat rival Sheridan Yellowjackets 6-2 in 7A/6A South Conference action on Friday at Panthers Field. Sophomore lefty Chase Nix threw five shutout innings of hitless relief to earn the win. "I was real proud of our pitching," Benton Coach Mark Balisterri said. "Brian (Krikorian) was struggling as far as throwing strikes. They hit it hard a couple times. I feel like we could have stuck with him and been OK, but his pitch count was up for two innings for him and we didn't want to burn both our starters on Tuesday.
HASKELL -- After beginning spring break 2014 with a sour taste in its mouth following a 16-2 defeat to Arkadelphia, Harmony Grove bounced back with a statement win over Lafayette County on Saturday, 13-3. To the tune of 10 hits, 13 runs and 11 stolen bases, the Cardinals got back on track just in time for their 5-3A conference opener today at Glen Rose. "It feels good to have a win," Head Coach Brandon Mynhier said. "We didn't think we were going to get to play after all the bad weather so it was good to come back after having a lot of time off and score some runs and hit the ball and win."
TAMPA, Fla. – The Bryant Hornets defeated Rockford, Ill., on Friday morning 10-1 to sweep the Tampa Spring Training Tournament. The Hornets' varsity and junior varsity went a combined 8-0 in the tournament. Junior Jason Hastings started for Bryant on Friday and pitched five innings of one-run ball, which Rockford scored on a squeeze bunt. The undefeated record was just a bonus as the Hornets played a lot of baseball and gained much-needed experience going into 7A/6A South Conference season when the team returns to face J.A. Fair on Tuesday.
BRYANT – Junior pitcher Blaine Knight struck out the first four batters he faced and nine straight to start, to lead the Bryant Hornets to a 11-1 five-inning victory over the Pine Bluff Zebras in 7A/6A South action on Friday at Hornets Field. Knight picked up the win giving up one run on one hit, walking two and striking out eight for the game. The Hornets would strike first early as junior Drew Tipton hit a one-out double to left field and came around to score when third-place batter Chase Tucker singled up the middle for the 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning.
NORTH LITTLE ROCK -- Friday was night full of defending champions and second-place finishers in North Little Rock. The first round of play slated the defending 3A champ Harmony Grove against 1A's victor Taylor Lady Tigers. With two teams looking for a repeat this season, Harmony Grove got in the early shot, punching Taylor in the mouth to the tune of 9-0. "We hit very well today," Head Coach Sammi Massey said. "We played really well. Other than one error on defense it went pretty well."

You probably won't want to pay for a seat on a flight to one of these airports again. Here are the scariest U.S. airports, in no particular order, as compiled by Rachael Prescott.
San Diego International Airport (Lindbergh Field)--The downtown location makes San Diego one of the most dangerous airports in the country. In addition, nearby mountains, Mexican airspace to the south, and strong tailwinds from the west make for nail-biting landings.
Aircraft arriving from the east land at what is called a displaced threshold, located 1,810 feet from the end of the runway. Several obstructions surround the airport, including a freeway, tall trees and a parking structure.
Midway International Airport, Chicago, Ill.--This airport is known for its short runways, which are squeezed into the metropolitan area. Midway's average runway length is 5,495 feet. Newer airports have runways averaging over 7,000 feet in length.
In December 2005, a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 overran the runway and plowed into an intersection, killing a 6-year-old boy and injury a dozen others.
Aspen/Pitkin County Airport, Aspen, Colo.--Pilots must be specially certified to land at Aspen, because landing at the airport requires a fast decent from high altitude. The airport is wedged between two snowy mountains.
A Gulfstream corporate jet crashed on final approach to Aspen on March 29, 2001, killing all 18 people on board.
Telluride Regional Airport, Telluride, Colo.--At 9,078 feet, Telluride is higher than any other North American commercial airport. Touch-and-go landings are prohibited, because a plane may go tumbling down the rocky cliff bordering the airport if the pilot can't get it back up in the air.
Spotting the runway among the sprawling mountains could be a difficult task for pilots landing at Telluride.
John Wayne Airport, Santa Ana, Calif.--Strict noise reduction rules require pilots to ascend at full throttle after take off and then abruptly cut back power to reduce noise over nearby neighborhoods.
View of a neighborhood near John Wayne Airport shortly after takeoff.
Catalina Airport, Avalon, Calif.--This airport is known to have downdrafts and turbulence on approach. The middle of the runway is so raised that pilots on one end cannot see the other.
The view from the cockpit of a plane landing at Catalina shows why the strip was nicknamed "The Airport in the Sky."
Reagan National Airport, Washington, D.C.--Flight paths are carefully plotted when approaching and departing this airport. Reagan National is in between two overlapping no-fly zones. Planes must avoid CIA headquarters, the Pentagon and the White House.
A pilot flying the famous "river visual" into Reagan National. Pilots use the Potomac river as a guide on approach for landing in order to avoid the no-fly zones.
Sitka Rocky Gutierrez Airport, Sitka, Ala.--This airport is located on a tiny island in Sitka Sound, surrounded almost completely by water. Weather is unpredictable and pilots have to watch out for debris that washes up on the runway after storms.
The passenger view from inside a plane seconds before landing at Sitka.
Yeager Airport, Charleston, W. Va.--This airport has one operational runway, which sits atop a flattened mountain. The runway sits between two cliffs, leaving no room for error when landing.
La Guardia, New York, N.Y.--La Guardia is one of three airports that make up the country's largest airport system, so the skies are always crowded. The close proximity to Manhattan requires pilots to make a series of tight, low-altitude turns during the approach to land.

Resources for Understanding & Teaching Sustainability
Click HERE for the complete searchable Database
Sustainability Lesson Plans – Crafted specifically for UWO (Click Here)
Why Teach Sustainability?
"Sustainability implies that the critical activities of a higher education institution are (at a minimum)
ecologically sound, socially just, and economically viable, and that they will continue to be so for future
generations. A truly sustainable college or university would emphasize these concepts in its
curriculum and research, preparing students to contribute as working citizens to an environmentally
sound and socially just society. The institution would function as a sustainable community, embodying
responsible consumption of food and energy, treating its diverse members with respect, and supporting
these values in the surrounding community."
– Association of University Leaders for a Sustainable Future
A central goal of a liberal arts education is to broadly train students so that they may become responsible citizens who can understand and respond to the complex issues that they face. Sustainability represents a complex, interconnected and ever-changing set of issues, and the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh has adopted it as an Essential Learning Outcome in its new general education program, the University Studies Program.
The sustainability concept grew out of concerns that post-World War II development efforts were falling short on two fronts: 1) although they were contributing to economic growth, they were performing poorly in improving human welfare in many regions; 2) they were depleting resources faster than they could be renewed or substituted, degrading the environment in many places, pushing global biogeochemical thresholds in unprecedented ways, and undermining ambitious nature conservation efforts.
In this context, sustainability represents the merging of conservation and development goals for the long-term health of human societies and Earth's life-giving processes that support them. Sustainability is now widely accepted as the way forward by governments, businesses, educational institutions, NGOs, communities, and individuals worldwide.
Below are some resources that may be of value as you begin incorporating sustainability ideas into your courses. These resources are part of a Sustainability Reference Database that contains academic and popular articles, books, reports, videos, links, and other resources related to sustainability.

Double V-Neck Bandage Dress
My new FAVORITE dress!!!!!
This dress is absolutely gorgeous!! It's nice on the hangar but looks even better on. It's not like any bandage dress I own. It's not made of heavy material so it stretches well, yet it still sucks in any imperfections. I loooovvvee the shape it gives me and the color compliments my mocha complexion perfectly. I'm thrilled with my purchase and can't wait to wear it :)
February 28, 2013
Gorgeous dress!!
I received this dress today and it is gorgeous!! It fit perfectly on me and accentuates my curves. I paired it with a coral blazer and coral/ cream snake skin booties! It's fab!!
December 11, 2012
Better when you put it on
I just went dress shopping for something that would match the new tan colored lace pumps Bebe got. When i first saw this dress i wasn't too excited bt my mom suggested i still try it on, and i'm glad she did! It definitly looks alot better on. Since the material is a thick bandage material it really holds you in & gives you a nice shape. It looks sexy, without showing too much. I can't wait to wear it to my work party.

This is probably a long shot since it's been so long, but now that the game seems to be taking a turn away from co-op, which I was hoping for, I'd like to print up a version to play using the known rules and cards. There are some gaps that I haven't been able to figure out and I'm hoping that those who were lucky enough to demo the game @ Gencon or other places could help fill them in. I've scour'ed the net and forums and have written up the basic rules and also made a spoiler of sorts. However, some things aren't totally clear from the info I've found.
The questions I have are...
- Reserved draws, do they require exhausting the card?
- Do cards exhaust to 'mission'?
- Developments are just cards under your base?
- Is the amount of influence generated by cards under your base equal to the
number of cards?
- How does playing a second unique (or any card?) on top of another work?
- Difference between Unique and Limited?
- Is mission failure checked when time is increased in the Regroup phase?
- Limit of 3 cards of each type?
- When could pilot'ed ships attack?
- Do ships exhaust to generate influence?
These are the cards I've been able to find so far, are there any that I am missing?
Probe Droid
Imperial Pilot
Imperial Officer
Tie Bomber
Grip of the Empire
Victory-Class Star Destroyer
Stormtrooper Legion
Tie Interceptor
Darth Vader
Heavy Stormtrooper
Imperial Shuttle
Han Solo
A-Wing Interceptor
Corellian Corvette
Over My Dead Body
Lando Calrissian
Rebel Marksman
Combat Reflexes
Tactical Strike
Red Five
Twi'lek Spice Runner
Luke Skywalker
Draw Their fire
Don't Get Cocky
Millennium Falcon
Wedge Antilles
Rookie Pilot
Sullustan Recruit
Admiral Ackbar
Let the Wookie Win
Rebel Trooper
<??a Limited ship that allowed any player to exhaust it for influence>
<?? Imperial ?? Star Destroyer, had you discard all developments from 1 player's base>
Return to Yavin 4
Infiltrate Imperial Outpost
Escape with the Data
Hunt Them Down
Imperial Command
Space Assault
Thanks to all those that did post session reports/overviews of their demo @ Gencon, without that, none of this would even be possible. I do hope that FFG does put out a co-op SW game even if it isn't the LCG.
