Diabetes Discrimination Lawyers
Locate a Local Employment Lawyer
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal law that gives civil rights protections to individuals with disabilities. It was designed to give disabled people the same level of respect and opportunity as everyone else enjoys. But an important thing to realize is that anything that substantially impairs your life can be considered a "disability" under the ADA, which includes diseases like cancer, AIDS, and diabetes.
What is a Disability Under the ADA?
The term "disability" has 3 definitions under the ADA:
- a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of an individual's major life activities;
- a record of such an impairment; or
- being regarded as having such an impairment.
Lately the courts have ruled that these definitions only apply after any mitigating measures are taken. What this means is that if you have terrible vision, which would normally qualify you as disabled, but you can wear glasses that correct the problem, the court will NOT recognize you as disabled.
For people afflicted with diabetes, the courts are required to do an individual assessment of each person, looking at how diabetes affects him/her after the impact of any treatments, like insulin and oral medication, are administered.
Does Diabetes Qualify as a Disability?
Diabetes generally qualifies as a disability under the ADA, even after treatment, since it often interferes with your "major life activities" like eating, the metabolism of food, sleeping, reproduction, and elimination of waste. Should your diabetes substantially interfere with any of these things, it will almost certainly be found to be a disability. However, if your diabetes is mostly symptom-less or doesn't really affect your day to day life, then it will probably not be found to be a disability.
Can an Employer Ask About Whether I Have Diabetes?
No, he cannot. Unless the employer has a direct reason to believe that your condition is posing a direct threat to safety of you and/or others, an employer may not ask questions about your medical condition nor require you to have a medical examination before he hires you. This means that an employer cannot ask you questions such as the following:
Not Allowed:
- whether you have or have ever had diabetes
- what medications you are on
- whether you have ever taken leave for surgery or medical treatment,
- or how much sick leave you have taken in the past year.
However, an employer may ask you how you are feeling if you appear to be sick, or he may ask you questions pertaining to your ability to do your duties:
- whether you are able to lift certain amounts of weight
- whether you can stay awake for certain shifts
- whether you are able to travel.
In addition, If you need a reasonable accommodation in your work, such as a refrigerated place to store insulin or being allowed to eat on the job (see below), then you will have to disclose some information about your condition and why the accommodations are necessary. You are NOT required to give anymore information than is necessary to explain the accommodation, however, and making such statements will not "open the floodgates" and allow the employer to ask otherwise impermissible questions.
Reasonable Accommodations
If you qualify as disabled under the law for diabetes, your employer is required to make reasonable accommodations that will allow you to work. The accommodation must be provided unless doing so would cause "undue hardship," defined as an action requiring significant difficulty or expense.
The reasonable accommodations that people with diabetes usually need are things like short breaks to check blood glucose levels, eat, take insulin, and store diabetes-related supplies at the workplace. These things are not particularly expensive to an employer, and so usually are allowed. However, even when extensive modifications are needed (like changing the work schedule, or allowing you to transfer to a different department) the employer still must provide these accommodations unless it can show "undue hardship."
I Have Been Discriminated Against Because of my Diabetes
Diabetes discrimination cases are a fast growing body of law. Consulting with an employment discrimination attorney will help you realize what remedies are available to you, and how best to proceed. If you have any reason to suspect that your (OR a member of your family's) condition was behind your employer's employment action, or if he has leaked information about your condition to anyone, you should contact an attorney as soon after the incident as possible.

We Drive Some Folks Wild – Hank III & Assjack Live at the Roxy 3/26/10
For the uninitiated, Hank Williams III (grandson of the legendary Hank Williams, son of Hank Williams Jr.) puts on one of the most exciting live sets in music right now. Reaching deep into the roots from whence he came, he plays almost an hour and a half of unadulterated outlaw country complete with banjo, fiddle and pedal steel guitar. He segues into a more rocking form of country that he refers to as "Hellbilly" music, adding electric guitars to the mix and dialing up the volume. And then finally, eschewing the country base, Hank III (as he commonly refers to himself) returns with his co-lead singer Gary Lindsey and his metal group Assjack. All told, the man performs a staggering set nearing three hours in length. On a brisk night in West Hollywood at the Roxy, a sold-out crowd was primed and ready for this and more.

Quoted Text wish there was a chart for non secretors at my fingertips.
Quoted from gardengirl I no longer have "goosebump" skin. I used to have it on the back of my arms and upper thighs. I will still get breakouts around my mouth which isn't acne but more like blistering if I stray too much. It turns bright red when I eat the wrong foods - (sugar, dairy and potatoes cause the quickest reactions for me) then they dry out and leave me with raw peeling skin. I also have psoriasis but it's really not much of an issue for me anymore.
Quoted from Spring I remember reacting so badly to white potatoes that my hands would burn and break out as soon as I started pealing them. Instead of realizing that this was something I definitely needed to avoid, I simply started baking them after a good scrubbing!! Of course, I was only around twenty years old when that was going on!
Quoted from gardengirl My skin issues really cleared up when I started fish oils. Forgot to post that. Totally cleared up my psoriasis. Eat a lot of greens, that also helps me a lot. I made kale chips to munch on today. I see a lot on betonite clay - I will have to look that up. I also started bitters drops recently, and yep, they are just that!
Quoted from tolondontoparis http://helpware.net/other/health/NonSecretor.htm
Quoted from tolondontoparis Yeah! I thought fish oils were really benefical, but on the nonnie list they are an avoid http://helpware.net/other/health/NonSecretor.htm
Quoted from ABJoe You realize that the information on this site is 6 years old... I don't know how many changes took place during that time, but it is better to get current information from the source.http://www.dadamo.com/typebase4/typeindexer.htm
Quoted from Mrs T O+ I think I have shared this before somewhere, but I had those bumps on the back of my upper arms from my teens to my 20s. I found that more vitamin A & sunlight got rid of them.I love potatoes, but avoid them. But in Oct. & Feb. when we were traveling, I had large portions of McDonald's fries with not outward adverse reaction. But I bet if I started having them every week or month, it would be bad. I still stay away from them as a general rule.
Quoted from ruthiegirl The sprite might have done more damage than the bourbon- all that sugar and/or corn syrup isn't good for anybody. You may have corn syrup as a neutral, since you're an A, but it's still a concentrated source of sugars and too many sugars weakens the immune system.
Quoted from tolondontoparis It seems pretty up to date still though! it links right to the type 4
Quoted Text Us nonnies just have to be tip top to be super lovely
Quoted from runningyogagal I have "goose bump" skin too! The technical name for it is Keratosis Pilaris, or KP. It is hardened keratin (like in fingernails) than we can't metabolize as the skin renews itself. So your hair follicles get all clogged. Manual exfoliation and moisturizers with alpha hydroxy acids like glycolic acid. (Alba has a good moisturizer you could get at any health food store but the glycolic acid in it is not very strong. I would recommend manual exfoliation, like dry brushing, with the Alba moisturier.)More info on kp: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keratosis_pilarisIf you are sirous about maintaining it, then microdermabrasion from a professional is worth it. That's what I do with mine when I have free time at work (I'm and Esthetician). Here's some info on microderm: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microdermabrasion#MicrodermabrasionI had heard too that it is a vitamin A deficiency. I took some vit A supplements for awhile but never had any change. I was more toxic then and it's possible that by gut lining wasn't allowing the vitamin in. I'm curious to see how it would work now. I really hope mine goes away soon! It's embarrassing when clients ask about it if I forget to put makeup on it.I also was pretty toxic as a teen after about 18 and my skin was horrible!!! Cystic acne and breakout all on my face galore! My skin is so clear now! Thanks to swami and lots of greens! My triggers are sugar, wheat and certain kinds of dairy.I tell my clients about healing the body holistically first and eating for your blood type FIRST and then you will have great skin by default..then skincare and regular treatment. I send people to the website constantly and lots of them ER4TheirT now... I laughed when I seen this, tolondontoparis..so true!
Quoted from tolondontoparis I just want clear healthy skin, so that I won't be afraid to have my boyfriend touch me! I hate this!
Quoted from Possum Just had a thought - does your boyfriend wear cologne/aftershave? I react to those sort of things & after even a brief half hour visit from a friend (especially if we have hugged & kissed as a greeting - which is pretty usual, as I only see him every few weeks) I will usually break out, especially if I have a patch/spot that is almost healed (& worse so, if it is not yet healed) In that situation I do find drinking bicarb in water & taking a hista calm afterward helps... I'd take it before, if he'd only tell me when he was dropping by Not sure if the rising cortisol factor with us nonnies comes into it?! For me anxiety/excitement do seem to affect things more, so might well be a factor, as with you, emotions/excitement would be involved even more!!

SOOOOO excited! It only took ~30hours but my knife drawer is finally done!!! (Well, not all done. Still need to paint the unfinished wood but that's INside the door, so you can't tell when the door is shut). Reminder: We renovated our kitchen, familyroom, and keeping room for 6months, then took a 6month break due to renovation exhaustion. --> Will we be done before the 1 year anniversary of demo (on Sept 14)? Thanks for letting me share my excitement. Amanda Sorry no finished pictures, but here's a sneak peak (sorry for poor quality, taken w/ phone): |

Now that's just cruel, to post such a teaser of what is obviously a beautiful space ;-) Can't wait to see the rest! |

That is so beautiful!... I love everything about this space...I especially love the lights |
Beautiful! |
Love those windows - but not fair to take a picture that leaves us in suspense! |

Tease! Looks great! Do you love having the faucet handle in the front as much as I do? Even DH hasn't figured out how to make a mess yet! Makes me smile and think if GW every time :-) |
Oh my, that is so beautiful!!! Wow, wow, wow. Love those lights and counters especially. |
Looks like a beautiful space. I can't wait to see your finished pictures !!! |
That fabulous long counter run - I sigh in appreciation every time I see it :) I know what you mean about real friends not understanding. I was very much taken aback when one of my best friends had no interest in the tour, the first time she came over. As a reminder, I'm on the North Shore of Boston and I'm on vacation this coming week; would love to come see your fabulous kitchen if the offer still stands and it's convenient for you. PM me if you would like to try to arrange something. Best, oldbat2be |
That is stunning! Love all the windows and the sconces are to die for! GORGEOUS!!!!! I want to see more! |
It looks like those lights were created specifically for your counters and cabinets, SO perfect! |
I would also like to see a close up of the lights. It looks beautiful in there! |

I like the pulls; what are they? |
That's really gorgeous. But it all pales in the face of that happy, excited smile. Perfect accessory for a really beautiful kitchen. It wouldn't be the same without it. |
So true. You're the perfect accessory for that wonderful work counter. I love what you're doing. |
Gorgeous so far! |
Oh thank you everyone for your kind/generous words. I didnŌĆÖt mean to tease with just 1 picture, but I am sure that I would have gotten more posts asking for at least 1 picture. 'üŖ Dbfirewife/taggie/aktillery/kksmama/deedles: about the sconces: Williamsem: Handle in the front = much less splashing. Olbat2be: ThatŌĆÖs why: YES, my offer for a tour for anyone nearby is definitely open. ŌĆ£friend had no interest in the tourŌĆØ: FUNNY! I get rather taken back also when my friends (who have not seen the kitchen) just say ŌĆ£NiceŌĆØ, and then move onto enjoying their drink or sitting down and start yakking about a blouse they just purchased or something. Like that blouse is important?!?! What about my use of my 4ŌĆØ filler (for my cutting board)? Or what about how my beloved Vitamix easily slides away when IŌĆÖm done w/ it? DonŌĆÖt you want to know about my spice jars? Bookworm: pulls = Ikea Varde, w/out the little round ŌĆ£rosetteŌĆØ. I wanted something simple, quiet, and doesnŌĆÖt catch on my clothing, so these were perfect for us. Again, thank you very much: for the compliments and mostly, for all your help in so many things. IŌĆÖve learned so much from GW. My kitchen would have never been as fantastic if it werenŌĆÖt for GW. Amanda |
Like that blouse is important?!?! What about my use of my 4ŌĆØ filler (for my cutting board)? LOL. I agree completely! The teaser pic is stunning. More, please. I'm glad that I'm not the only one who wonders why others aren't as excited about my kitchen as I am. That's why I still hang around here. |

The Message (MSG) | New International Version (NIV) |
6 But he didn't kill the sons of the assassins. He was obedient to what God commanded, written in the Word revealed to Moses, that parents shouldn't be executed for their children's sins, nor children for those of their parents. We each pay personally for our sins. | 6 Yet he did not put the sons of the assassins to death, in accordance with what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses where the LORD commanded: "Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor children put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sins." |

The Queue: PVP, player models, and applying to WoW Insider {WoW}
Oct 24th 2011 1:40PM Thanks both of you for the comments. I was hoping I missed it and Blizzard said something directly on point.
I'm really excited for new content and the expansion. My only concern is spec specific choices (like these 2 optional play styles) which don't seem to fit with the current structure they announced. There is a long way to the release date, though, so anything can happen.
The Queue: PVP, player models, and applying to WoW Insider {WoW}
Oct 24th 2011 12:32PM I was wondering if anyone at Blizzard said how they will handle what are currently "sub specs" (other than the druid change) while doing away with traditional talents.
The best PVE example would be the Disc Priest. Currently, you can be an atonement disc priest or a shield-based disc priests. This was one of my favorite parts of Cata, but it seems like now you won't have that choice.
In PVP it happens with many specs. Are all spec now going to get PVP talents by default without forgoing any PVE viability?
Spiritual Guidance: The basics of shadow priest PVP {WoW}
Jun 30th 2011 10:22AM This does not work anymore. You only can get the +400 resilience from 1 of the 2 sets, not both. As someone pointed out about, the healer set is better than the DPS set. The added bonus of having your shield give you a 4 second immunity to movement impairing effects is awesome.
Breakfast Topic: Are you satisfied or disappointed with minor glyphs? {WoW}
May 24th 2011 9:44AM For my shadow priest I have always wanted a minor glyph to make my PW:shield look more shadow-ish. In PVP I cast it a lot as a shadow priest.
The Queue: Day Man {WoW}
May 17th 2011 12:22PM Shadow Priest, hands down.
A warlock is evil. Quite clearly they call on demons to do their bidding. But you know a warlock when you see them. The demon stench on them alone gives them away. They don't hide their chosen art from the world.
A shadow priest is far more sinister. Still able to heal and protect, they can toil away in the church or rectory, seeming to be a source of good. In reality, they can hide within the shadows, harnessing the would be good energy to do their evil bidding. And what is their course of attack? They go into your mind. Far from the run of the mill evil of sending a fire ball or the lunacy of a demon minion, a shadow priest will slowly torture you with their a long winded pain, they will infect your mind causing you to run in fear or drop your weapon while you pee your pants and will take control of your body and have you run off a cliff. And not to be outdone, they can call upon their own fiend to eat your sole. Then they can pop out of the shadows and welcome you in church the following week, probably taking money from you to add insult to injury.
To quote Vincent Antonelli "Some people they take your money, but these people...they take your HEART"

The Queue: The origin of Ghostcrawler {WoW}
Apr 19th 2011 11:43AM @noyou
When they introduced epic gems in LK, did they up the JC only gem stats? At the end of LK, the JC only gems gave an advantage consistent with the advantage gained from BS, LW, etc. So were the JC only gems just out of control good at the beginning of LK (when there were no epic gems) or did they improve the JC only gems to compensate for the epics?
The Queue: The origin of Ghostcrawler {WoW}
Apr 19th 2011 11:19AM Question for the Queue: Has there been any announcement for how JC will progress in the expansion?
I've seen some blogs/forums discussing releasing epic gems/cuts other than chimera's eye. If they do this, they will weaken the JC crafters bonus (currently + 81 INT vs. using 3 brilliant inferno rubies, for example), unless they also release or augment the current chimera's eye cuts. Is this something that occurred in other expansions?

College of Law › About the College of Law › News, Events, and Multimedia › News › Chapman Charitable Trusts Announce Major Gift Benefiting The TU College of Law
Tuesday, January 12, 2010
The Chapman Charitable Trusts announced a major gift benefiting The University of Tulsa College of Law during an event held January 12 at the law school.
The gift has established the Dean John Rogers Endowed Chair for the College of Law and will fund a major renovation of John Rogers Hall that will allow future facility upgrades.
"The Chapman Charitable Trusts have been a bedrock of support and a continual source of opportunity to TU for more than 50 years," said TU President Steadman Upham. "They have provided essential funding for our programs, facilities and for an expanding family of faculty and scholarship endowments."
The Dean John Rogers Endowed Chair for the College of Law honors the legacy of John Rogers Sr., a former trustee of the Chapman Charitable Trusts and influential figure in the history of TU, the College of Law and Tulsa. During a seven-decade legal career that began in 1914, Rogers served as general counsel for the Chapman-McFarlin-Barnard interests, founded the Rogers and Bell law firm, was named Tulsa's Man of the Year in 1945, and was elected to the Oklahoma Hall of Fame in 1951.
Rogers played a vital role in the growth and progress of TU, where he served on the Board of Trustees for 34 years. Additionally, he was instrumental in establishing the TU College of Law and served as dean for seven years without drawing a salary. John Rogers Hall, which is home to the TU College of Law, is named in his honor.
The Chapman Charitable Trusts have long supported the TU College of Law, including gifts that established the Chapman Distinguished Chair in Law (currently held by Judith Royster). Chapman endowments support the operations of John Rogers Hall and the Mabee Legal Information Center, and provide for vital acquisitions for the law library.
John Rogers Jr. and his wife, Georgette, created the multimillion-dollar John and Hazel Rogers Memorial Scholarship for Law endowment to honor Rogers' parents by funding more than 15 scholarships each year. The elder Rogers was a founder of Rogers and Bell Law Firm and attorney for Tulsa philanthropist James A. Chapman.
"I am pleased we could establish this endowed faculty position in honor of John Rogers," said Sharon Bell, individual trustee of the Chapman Charitable Trusts, member of the TU Board of Trustees, and TU College of Law alumna (JD '85). "He is now remembered with an administrative chair, a group of scholarships, and through the home of the law school, John Rogers Hall. Such a diversified tribute is a fitting response to the deep affection that he had, not only for TU, but for the entire community as well."
The earnings generated by the newly announced endowment will ensure that the College of Law will be able to secure and support talented leadership by providing salary compensation for the sitting dean. The endowment also will support research and other professional activities.
Additionally, the gift will fund asbestos abatement in John Rogers Hall, which will allow the university to proceed with further facility upgrades that were previously not possible.
"This gift will allow us to reallocate salary funds at a moment when every dollar is especially dear," said Janet K. Levit, dean of the TU College of Law. "Endowing the chair assures that the College of Law will have permanent resources to attract and retain future leadership. It helps ensure that our work today becomes the foundation for progress, for building positively upon our rich history and continuing John Rogers' legacy of institution-building."
Levit becomes the inaugural Dean John Rogers Endowed Chair for the College of Law. She was named the TU College of Law's 17th dean on July 10, 2008. A widely recognized scholar in the areas of international law and international commercial law, Levit first served as a visiting assistant professor at TU from 1995 to 1997 and later joined the TU law faculty as an assistant professor in 2002. She became a tenured faculty member at TU in 2004.
Levit earned her law degree in 1994 from Yale Law School. She earned a master's degree in international relations from Yale University and an undergraduate degree from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University. Following law school, Levit served as a law clerk for the Honorable Stephanie K. Seymour, then Chief Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.

'Sexual harassment' dropped from 6-year-old boy's record
The change was made after the boy's parents and the principal met to discuss the issue.
The girl's mother, Jade Masters-Ownbey, told the Canon City Daily Record on Wednesday that the school district did a great job protecting her daughter from repeated harassment from the boy.
First-grader Hunter Yelton was given a two-day suspension, with a sexual harassment infraction on his discipline record. The boy's mother, Jennifer Saunders, insists the punishment was too harsh.

Hello, I"ll very much appreciate if you can give an advice on a situation with our patio. We live in the old house (Bay area,California), which has a concrete patio. Many years ago it has been probably only a patio, then the pool was added, and some extra layers of cement has been added (so it is 4" next to house and 8" at the outside edge of the patio), then pool has been apparently removed, and now there are the 5"*6" blocks of old cement with 2" wooden strips between them (still almost OK). The top of the cement is about on the same level as the edge of the sliding patio door frame. The concrete is more than 50 years old and looks ugly, and we want to have a wooden patio there. We thought about putting 2*4"s on a top of the concrete, and 1" hardwood decking on the top of it, but it will cover the frame and deck will be on a door level. We also thought about removing the concrete and building the wood frame for the deck in a standard way. But in this case (cement is about 4"thick next to the door ) the decking will be too close to the ground? Or it is OK? Or nothing will work, and we should simply put a tile over that cement? May you, please, suggest what to do? Thank you, Isabella |

OMGoodness - that is LOVELY. Did you color your mortar to get it so pretty, or is it just colored grout - and if so - what color is it? Hope it's some that I can get here. I've never wanted to change from charcoal grout, but this changes my mind. I absolutely LOVE this. Makes me want to mosaic the concrete birdbath I have. WOW WOW WOW - how pretty is that, girlie. You knocked this one outta the park. |

No question about it — Annie Novak has given new meaning to the term green thumb. As co-founder of Eagle Street Rooftop Farm, a 6,000-sq.-ft. organic vegetable farm in Brooklyn, N.Y., and founder and director of Growing Chefs, a nonprofit that teaches culinary skills, Novak has dedicated herself to healthy agricultural practices. Now she's been tapped as a Bogs brand ambassador. And the partnership makes sense, she said, as shoes are a farmer's key tool, protecting feet from rocks, mud and other hazards. "[My footwear] can't be too heavy because I'm walking all the time," she said. In her new role at Bogs, a division of Weyco Group Inc., Novak hopes to encourage people to become more knowledgeable about the foods they eat. "I have a passion about plants and bugs and the community that evolves out of that." Novak's story is told on Bogs' website, and a video highlighting her work will debut in the spring. According to David Cook, Bogs' director of marketing, Novak helps bring the brand to life. "People will [now] be able to relate to the brand a bit more," he said, citing its collection of waterproof footwear.
Last vacation: "Visiting my family back home in Chicago. It's always the best vacation. Lake Michigan is my lifeblood, and my sisters and mom are my favorite people in the world."
If I believed in reincarnation, I'd want to come back as ... "An elephant. I already have their endurance, craving for kinship and temper tantrums."
Perfect Sunday afternoon: "That's Rooftop Farm's market day. It's great to work alongside our volunteering neighbors, and I love talking to people about our produce."
The vegetable I hated to eat as a kid was ... "Beans. I was a peas girl, all the way. Now I love both."
Traits I attribute to my mother: "Everything I am today is because of my amazing mother. You always end up becoming your mother."
Favorite season: "Agriculture makes me love each season for its own character. Spring is a season of optimism, energy and zealous overwork. Summer brings long hours and sweet fruits. Fall has my favorite smells: ripe tomatoes, baking squash, dead leaves. Winter is, at last, rest."

Cotton Open-Neck Sweater
Low Quality
Cheap material. I was very disappointed and think it is over priced.
December 17, 2014
Fun and flattering
I ordered tan and pink stripe and it is perfect for cool summer nights. Will wear it in Florida later this Winter. It is a light weight sweater and will probably have it dry cleaned to keep size, which is just how I want it to be.
November 28, 2014
Interesting stripes
What an interesting combination of colors. The darker pink and the dark natural make this a 3 season sweater, which adds to the value. I am wearing it tomorrow (Oct 7) with jeans. Quite happy with this purchase!
October 7, 2014
So far, so good
I'm happy with the material, color & fit. The weather in Texas permits me to wear this well into the winter months if desired. Unsure about the washing instructions, but will wash it on delicate & put in the dryer for 5 min before laying flat & hope for the best.
October 3, 2014
Nice lightweight sweater
Loved the yellow and tan, nice sweater to transition from summer to fall.
September 18, 2014
The best at a great price
I loved this sweater the moment I saw it. I followed the size guide and it fit perfectly.
It s blueberry season in Maine and the first time I wore it, I spilled blueberry sauce all over the front. Try as I did, I could not remove the stain (Maine blueberries are well known for the strength of their staining power). I felt very fortunate that the sweater was still available and re-ordered it immediately. I will be very careful with this second one.

Pontiac Bonneville Water Leaks
Posts: 2
in Pontiac
I have a 2000 Bonneville SSE-I and we just got a huge amount of rain here in Cincinnati and my rear driver floor board is accumulating water and no where else.
I can not find wet spots on the roof or door area. Get this I vacuumed it up this morning at a Car Wash paid a couple bills maybe 15 minutes later AFTER cleaning it real good BAM again an inch if water same area and no water marks anywhere.
I know under the driver and passenger seats there are vents maybe from there please give me some light on this.
Thank you,

imidazol97 Crossroads of America: I70 & I75Posts: 18,660Those leaks seem to be related to
1) door seal inside door which is a plastic sheet held by a butyl-like sticky caulk that sometimes loosens or is not replaced during a repair and lets water in
2) sunroom drain lines not draining properly and water gets into floor area
3) a trunk leak
I have sent some more information about leaks to your carspace email account here on Edmunds. Click on the grey bar word "Mailbox" in the top of this page and read the email from there. -
patval4582 Posts: 2I am dumbfounded by this issue because I do not see water stains anywhere and get this all the seals are beautiful because before I got it was a garaged car so the seals and whole car look brand new.
I did not get an email from you I opened the email box and the pop screen came up I pressed check email and nada.
Thank you,

steve167 Posts: 3Recently purchased 2003 Bonneville SLE. Discovered rear floor on driver's side was wet. Dried it out completely. Took it through the car wash a couple of times, had a little rain, never saw evidence of leaking anywhere. Rear floor again extremely wet!! Front slightly wet. Removed drivers seat, took all carpet out, the floor slopes to the back. No obvious holes or cracks in floor. Can't figure it out. Has happened three times in the last month.
Would appreciate any suggestions. -
imidazol97 Crossroads of America: I70 & I75Posts: 18,660You're right about sunroof. Sunroof drains can block up. They come out behind the front wheels IIRC from another site where this is discussed a lot.
Also, the water shield inside the front doors can be loose especially if the door has ever been serviced for window problems. The plastic is glued to the metal frame with a butyl caulk. This lets water through that drains into the door around the windows and then it gets onto the floor. Also check the rubber seals around the perimeter of the door.
Do you have water in the bottom of the trunk in the spare well? -
imidazol97 Crossroads of America: I70 & I75Posts: 18,660If you have a sun room pour water into the trough and watch for it to come out under the car or back up as you pour it in rather than go through one of the 4 drains.
If you have possible door leaks, spray them with a garden hose and then inspect for water running down the plain metal at the bottom of the doors.
I have picture help for both of these. I can send articles to your carspace email address here on edmunds if you activate those. Or you can send an email to my address in my profile. Click on the use name that shows who posted to see their info and profile; one of my emails is there.
Or send to my carspace email which is my user name plus the "at" sign and carspace.com -
steve167 Posts: 3Found the problem-after removing carpeting and wiping up the floor, I ran the hose on the sunroof and water came in the car right behind the emergency break pedal. Becauase of the slope of the floor to the back it runs down the channels in the floor pan and pools on the back seet floor. The sunroof drain tube comes down the left side of the windshield behind the plastic molding, through a hole in behind the dash. It's supposed to drain outside of the car but wasn't.
So far no water in the spare well.
Thanks for the info! -

raelu Posts: 1I have a 1994 Bonne and for the past several months has had water accumulating in my trunk. It's gotten so bad lately that I have puddles on my floor in back though not as yet in the front. What can I do? I think it might be my seals. I'm new to car ownership and at a loss as to the best way to go about fixing this problem.
Thanks for any help. -

elsia Posts: 1I also have water pooling under my drivers seat in my 2000 bonneville. When putting a garden hose on your sun roof you are suppose to have it shut right? This probably sounds silly but i don't know how to figure this problem out and it has caused electrical problems with the wires under my seat. Three windows and three door locks stopped working. Dealership said the electrical harness had water corrosion on it and charged me $400.00. Windows and doors work now but there is still water coming in. HELP
imidazol97 Crossroads of America: I70 & I75Posts: 18,660While it's most likely to be a disconnected sunroom drain next to your parking brake area...,
don't forget to run water around the window on the driver's door so it can leak around the slide seal where it goes up and down and get in on the passenger side and look for water on the metal around the inside of the door toward the driver.
Water that gets inside the door is kept out of passenger area by a plastic shield which is caulked to the perimeter of the door. But that caulk ages or is not replaced correctly if someone took off the inner panel to do work, such as window motors.
And the water can drip into the interior. It comes in under the door trim but outside the metal.
Check your carspace mailbox for some more info on these leak problems. -
apaxson Posts: 1I am new on this web-site and it looks like you might have all the answers I am looking for. I have a 2000 Bonneville with no sunroof that leaks water into the interior with every rainfall. It pools on the floor in front of and behind the drivers seat. I've noticed that you have sent pictures and etc. to other owner regarding this situation..........can you please help me out.
Al -
imidazol97 Crossroads of America: I70 & I75Posts: 18,660I did what you asked.
The butyl caulk that seals the plastic liner to the metal of the door ages and lets the water drip on down the door and it drips inside the car. The butyl makes the water go back into the door where it drips out drains on the bottom of the door that are outside the rubber sealing strips so the water ends up outside the car.
There are some other leak problems around taillights into the trunk and the spare tire storage well and around the spoiler wings. -

destiny5 Posts: 2I have a 2004 pontiac bonneville and recently I have been getting water on the floorboard behind the driver and now on the drivers floor. My son checked it out and says the water is coming in by the emergency brake wall.. And it only does this if it is sitting in my driveway front wards. If I park it on the flat or back it in the water doesn't come in when it rains. But I also noticed I have a wet spot on the drivers floor. I NEED HELP. I don't have a sunroof and my son check my windshield for leaks. Can you please help me.
imidazol97 Crossroads of America: I70 & I75Posts: 18,660The water has to be coming in around the door rubber seals or coming through the inside of the door and getting past the water shield that's caulked to the metal frame to direct water inside the door to the drains at the bottom (which drain it outside the rubber seals).
Run water onto the windows with a garden hose with no nozzle and look for drips coming on the inside of the metal showing around the bottom below the inside fancy covering. -
najinski Posts: 1I have a 2005 Bonneville with leaking problems. I do not have a sunroof. I have seen leaking once when sitting at the airport, I saw water coming in on the kick panel in the center of the front door. I opened the door and couldn't find any indication of where the water was coming from. The seals look good. Can you send pictures of the inside door seal? Thanks,

david777 Posts: 1I have a 2001 Pontiac Bonneville and have water leaking on the inside of the doors and onto the floor. Can anyone provide me the instructions and hopefully pictures of the proper procedure to remove the driver and passenger door panels without breaking clips and hurting electical wires. Also what do I need to do to fix the water leak problem?
rsheeder Posts: 1I own a 2000 Bonneville SE that has recently been leaking large amounts of water on the front passenger side floor. This problem has just started in the past month or so, and I have no clue how to fix the problem. Every time it rains, though, I get water on the floor. I have checked the door and can not find the source of the leak, although a subtle water trail has appeared on the plastic that lines the door jam. The trail looks to be in the area underneath the speaker. My trunk has also leaked, but that has only happened one time a couple of months ago. I'm not sure if the problems are related. I noticed people had sent photos of how to fix the problem. If someone could do the same for me, or at least provide me with more information on how to fix this problem, it would be greatly appreciated!
rocky74 Posts: 15I have a '97 Bonneville with a water problem, also. The carpet in the back seat gets soaked. There is no sunroof. Could you please let me know what the fix is? I tried to set up my page here, but it isn't loading. Maybe you could post it since so many of us have the same problem? Thanks

I tried getting on last night. The site must have been overwhelmed. I'll try again in a few days.
I was just interested to know if anyone has signed up for Give A Day Get A Disney Day yet, I search in my area, and it looks like we will have to do a little driving to volunteer (we live in a super small town). So far it looks like a well organized program.

Adults are only kids grown up, anyway. WD
...That's the real trouble with the world. Too many people grow up. WD
"For those who get it, no explanation is necessary. For those who don't, no explanation will do."
I signed up...we looked last night and there are only a few organizations in our area as well...but, the listings are also only for the next 60 days..so in 60 days (for example) it might change...so things may come up closer to you (at least...we're hoping lol)
There are some just a couple of miles from here and I'm thinking about signing up!

I was kind of disappointed in the number of groups that are included. It looks like if an organization is not part of the helping hands network, it doesn't work. And, there are so many volunteer organizations that are out there, it would be nice to see Disney open up to other groups.
The happiest place on earth is where my kids are!
I'm Canadian and I was worried there would be even less opportunities to choose from, but there were more than I expected in my area. Granted, I live near Toronto which is very big, but even then in my much smaller area there were a few. I ended up choosing to volunteer at the coat check at a local theater that performs free plays (mostly for children). I only wish there were opportunites at the local Humane society... although probably better that there wouldn't because I'm sure I would have ended up taking home lots of friends for my puppy!
Does anyone know how long the volunteering lasts? It says on the website that there is no set time (ei. its not actually a "day") and that each organization sets up what they think is an appropriate time for the ticket and that completion of the entire listed opporunity is required, but I noticed that some of the opportunities say they are long term which is defined as "6 months or more". One for instance was being a rep coach for a soccer team... which I can't really see just giving a day to...
There was a lot to offer in our area. It looks like there were a lot of people already signing up. The Humane society is filling up. We wanted to do something with our whole family. Our youngest to participate is 9 which limited our choice. We chose the linus project which makes blankets for ill children. We will probably not be going to Disney this year so we will donate. I think this is a great opportunity to get your foot in the door for volunteering and involve the kids!
There were many opportunities in my area! I was pleasantly surprised because I live in a small town. There was one in a state park near me ( a park ranger rover or something like that) so I signed up for that and I signed up my two teenage sons(they don't know it yet, haha). The volunteer shift is from 9am-1230, on Feb 13th.
Site was overwhelmed, with many technical problems over the last few days. It all seems to working now.
I've signed up to volunteer this month. Almost all the opportunities are a distance from me (thanks to rural New jersey), but there was lots of variety.

being close to Philly gave me an abundance of options I think~

Has anyone been emailed yet after signing up? I'm a little confused... it says you should be emailed by the organization that you're volunteering with within 5 days (its only been 3 days for me) but are you also supposed to be emailed by the Hand on Network? I'm Canadian, so its Go Volunteer instead of hands on, but it should be the same thing right? I just want to make sure that I didn't do anything wrong... the one I signed up for isn't there anymore when I search, but that should be because I signed up for it with my bf and so we took the available spots, right?
I signed up yesterday with the American Red Cross and already received a follow up today.
Maybe you could call the organization and follow up directly with them???

°O°The Key to Happiness is Self Delusion°O°
Hmmm did you get an email just from the organization, or also from the Hands On network? When I signed up it was new years and then the weekend, but I would think someone would have been around to get to me today? I'll give it a few more days... but the disney website says that if you havent heard from them in 5 days to re-sign up for it and the spot is gone already

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Sweet Pea!
Facts about Sweet Pea
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Gray Or Blue (Mostly)
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Sweet Pea's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
Sweet Pea is a friendly 1 to 2-year-old grey girl with white on her chest and paws. She has been rescued from the shelter and is now ready to find her new home. She is litterbox trained, spayed, current on vaccinations, microchipped, and on flea preventative. The adoption fee is only $40 and allows us to help more animals. You may see her at the Weatherford PetSmart Adoption Center, located at the shopping center at I-20 exit 408. Call 817-598-0702 for directions and hours.
Other Pets at Parker Paws
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Sweet Pea, a Weatherford Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Weatherford, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Weatherford.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Weatherford already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Weatherford breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Weatherford paves the way for another one to be saved.

I need some suggestions on some companion plants to place around hostas-I have ferns and some heuchera. I will be planting numerous Blue hostas and a couple of Yellow ones. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have astilbe and foxglove in with mine along with a ton of coral bells and numerous ferns. |
- Posted by plantgnome 6b//7 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 1, 12 at 19:39
My foxgloves are bending over they got so tall. Did you get shorter ones? Astilbes are a good idea-I have like 100 of them and can move them at will. A few more Coral Bells is a good idea too. Thanks CindyCRNA |
Plantgnome, you should visit the new heuchera forum here. Watch out though...a new addiction could form very easily!! I'm speaking from experience! Karen |
- Posted by plantgnome 6b//7 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 1, 12 at 20:04
I love Heuchera-I have a lot of them-but want more, LOL. I only have two lime green ones-I'm thinking of getting a couple for contrast with the dark blue hostas to light up the area. Thanks for the suggestions. |
Heuchera (Amazing colour choices and some have really nice flowers too) Astilbe (Texture & colour) Masterwort (long bloom time and add an airy feel) Brunnera (slugs leave them alone and they have similar shape to hostas and great flowers in spring), Sedge (I have palm sedge - it looks similar to papyrus) Ligularia May Apple Wood Spurge Jacob's Ladder Lungwort Ferns (Japanese Painted and any other that isn't invasive) Geraniums (not all like shade but some do) Turtlehead (dark leaves and fall flowers) Epimedium Hakone Grass Anemone |
- Posted by plantgnome 6b//7 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 1, 12 at 20:40
OOOHHH-I have Brunnera Jack Frost in a pot and its overgrowing in it. I think I'll transplant out of the pot into my Hosta site. I also have Toad Lilies that have spread quite a bit-I can move some of those. I have Pulmonaria Mrs. Moon which is going totally bananas, I can divide that too (although mine have been having a spider mite problem this year). Thanks, you just saved me a few bucks! |
- Posted by plantgnome 6b//7 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 1, 12 at 21:00
I have several ferns in and near the Hosta site-Autumn Fern "Brilliance", Pewter lace, Holly Fern and a Umbrella Papyrus. Problem being I just in the past two days expanded the shade garden to accomodate more hosta. So the area looks naked, LOL. Thank u for all your suggestions and help. |
- Posted by plantgnome 6b//7 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 1, 12 at 21:09
marquest-is that first photo Ajuga Burgundy Glow? Its very pretty, its on sale right now at Bluestone. think I'll get a couple. Do they spread fast like Ajuga Catlins Giant? |
I have many of those already listed with my hosts so ill pick some I haven't seen listed. Siberian and Louisiana iris, carex morrowsii (may have that spelled wrong), darmera, astilboid, several kinds of lamium, asters veronica's, lupines, skimia, strawberries, candytuft and tickseed. Sorry about the spelling, been a very long hard day and I'm just too tired to look it up. |
- Posted by plantgnome 6b//7 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 1, 12 at 21:46
Thanks alexis 717-I was thinking Lamium Aureum by the dark Hostas, I have carex morrowii Ice Dance all over the place, here it spreads like wild fire. astilboids sound interesting, think I'll try those. Unfortunately, I don't get enough sun in the area I've expanded for tickseed or candytuft. But you've given me a lot of good ideas, thanks again. Hope you have a good relaxing weekend. |

My fault-didn't read the caption above it. Thats really pretty and different-it does resemble Ajuga Burgundy Glow tho. will look into them. |
My companions: Astilbe in the background (mine gets 3 feet tall). Japanese painted fern (looks amazing with blues). Heuchera (stay away from the orangey ones, they tend to clash badly with hosta). Ajuga. Golden creeping jenny. Persicaria Red Dragon (related to the painter's pallet pictured in a previous response). Columbine (there are 100+ varieties). Ostrich fern (gets super tall). And then foundation plantings like bushes and trees. |

Thanks frostynyc I guess I better move my Southern Comfort Heuchera out of there, lol. Other than Heucheras like Lime Ricky, Key Lime Pie and other bright green ones, which would you suggest. I have numerous Ostrich ferns, one called the The King back there. I also have a cimicifuga there. Ajuga is a good idea, I was thinking burgundy glow. I think I'll stay away from Columbine in that area due to their dislike of wet areas. The Persicaria Red Dragon is beautiful-considering that one also. |

absolutely gorgeous. I have deutzia gracilla Nikko in two spots in my yard. I can take some and put it among the hostas, I also have japanese forest grass Aureola that can use some dividing as well as some dark Heuchera. Also a potted blue festuca I can plant in the ground. All these great suggestions-my garden will look good in no time. Thank you. |
Beautiful photos, and excellent suggestions. One that I can add that is not listed yet (I don't think), is 'Bowles Golden' carex. Also, a bit of warning...the brunerra 'Jack Frost' often has foliar nematodes, so be careful placing it around hostas. I learned about if after I planted around five of them. Live and learn. |

hostabuff, Your masterwort is actually an anemone (sylvestris). I have both. :) |
- Posted by plantgnome 6b//7 (My Page) on Sat, Jun 2, 12 at 12:02
Will keep an eye out-mine are Brunnera Looking Glass-do all Brunnera get the nasty nematodes? I also have 3 Bowles Golden Carex and can move one or two over there. Thanks guys! |
Donna, Thanks for the correction on the Anemone. I just purchased Star of Beauty Masterwort and throught my anemone was in the same family. I plan on using the Star of Beauty, which has a pretty purple/pink flower, as a companion plant with the hosta too. |

Hostabuff, beautiful plantings. I really love the Dutzia (have to look this one up) with the Japanese forest grass and H Island Charm. I love when the same colors are repeated with different forms, and those three are terrific. Plantgnome, coleus is an annual in zone 6-7. But without too much bother, you can take cuttings and have some for the following spring. It's a good plant to use while your hosta are growing up. Christine |

Good idea-I have a bright green coleus that I overwinter in the house. Also I have a Itea "little henry" planted where it is dead shade and not doing well-gonna move it to the Hosta garden area, That will add something different. I like how yours looks in there. |
Plantgnome, I staked my all of my foxglove. Yes the tall spires will bend over bit I bought the green wire stakes and that fixed it. |

Very pretty and great color-see I like putting color around the Hosta's also. Today I moved around some perennials from another partial shade garden and started planting them. I put in some shorter Astilbes, two Carex Bowles, two Tiarella candy stripe, two Looking Glass Brunnera, I just moved my Itea Little Henry there, (just got it a couple of weeks ago) I have a green Cimicifuga up front and a Dixie Wood Fern towards the back all like water and my sprink. sys. hits that area. I am going to try potting a couple that I just got recently. one is Queen of the Seas and the other is Fragrant Bouquet. I am going to try to find a mini hosta for a very small area to put next to a Tiramisu Heuchera. Thanks for your pic and your help. |
I don't think anyone has mentioned sweet woodruff or delphinium. My hostas are not mature so I also use dahlias, dianthus,dusty millar, impatience in some spots to add colour and fill in spots. Not a plant but I like large rocks in hosta beds too. |

Jigsaw is dead, to begin with. There is no doubt whatsoever about that. Old Jigsaw is as dead as a doornail. But if you thought that meant the end of the Saw pictures, then you obviously didn't come of age in the era of A Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th. With four hugely successful installments already on the books and a fifth one almost certainly set to hit theatres next Halloween, Saw is the 21st-century version of those long-running franchises, which have racked up a combined 17 films (18 if you count Freddy vs. Jason) over the past two decades. And while the prospect of a Saw 18 seems unlikely, there's no reason why we shouldn't expect to see Saw 8 or even Saw 10 before the series finally calls it a day, especially now that the producers have overcome their biggest hurdle, namely the death of the central serial killer, John Kramer a.k.a. Jigsaw.
As you may recall, Saw III ended with Jigsaw's throat being sliced open by a contestant who had survived one of his elaborate games. Saw IV opens with the feared killer's lifeless body being dissected in graphic, gruesome detail on a morgue slab. (In case you were wondering how returning director Darren Lynn Bousman would top the extended brain surgery sequence seen in the last movie, here he gleefully shows the coroners cutting through Kramer's skull and lifting out his brain before peeling back his rib cage and removing his organs. Even for a desensitized gore fan like myself, this scene tested the ol' gag reflex.) During the operation, an audiotape is discovered in Kramer's stomach that indicates that Jigsaw's games will continue from beyond the grave. This time around, his target is SWAT officer Rigg (Lyriq Bent), who has spent the past two movies watching his colleagues fall prey to Kramer's schemes.
The rules of his game, as always, are simple—Rigg has 90 minutes to navigate a series of traps and if he succeeds, he'll find his former partner, the long-missing Detective Matthews (Saw II's Donnie Wahlberg), waiting for him. Meanwhile, two FBI agents (Athena Karkanis and Scott Patterson) try to learn more about Kramer—and the person who might be continuing his work—by interrogating his ex-wife Jill (Betsy Russell), who reveals, among other things, that she was once going to give birth to Jigsaw Jr., until tragedy claimed the unborn baby and set John on his path to becoming his deadly alter ego.
Although Saw is on course to match A Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th in terms of longevity, there are some striking differences between the franchises. For one thing, the Nightmare and Friday sequels were largely standalone affairs where the only constant was Freddy or Jason slaughtering a bunch of nubile teens. The Saw movies, in contrast, are fanatical about continuity. Even though new characters are introduced in each installment, the filmmakers go out of their way to establish exactly how they fit into the larger Saw mythology. Likewise, faces previously glimpsed in bit parts are subsequently revealed to be major players. One of the key figures in Saw IV, for example, is a heretofore-unseen character named Art (Justin Louis), who turns out to have been Kramer's one-time business partner. And then there's Detective Hoffman (Costas Mandylor), who appeared fleetingly in Saw III but by the end of this installment proves that he'll be a crucial part of the franchise's future.
Saw fans love the series' attention to detail, but with every new character and plot twist, the overarching story has grown increasingly arbitrary and nonsensical. The absurdity reaches new highs in Saw IV, which asks us to swallow developments that simply aren't logistically possible, never mind realistic. The last ten minutes are particularly baffling, as they require Jigsaw to be in two places at once, suggesting that he's either mastered the art of cloning or has a long-lost twin brother who is also conveniently dying of cancer. But then, the majority of moviegoers aren't returning to Saw again and again for the story—they want to see what new torture devices the filmmakers have dreamed up.
Unfortunately, Saw IV disappoints on that level as well. There's little imagination in this crop of traps, particularly when compared to the key-behind-the-eye sequence in Saw II or the drowning-in-pig-guts stunt in Saw III. As sad as fans may be to see John Kramer go, maybe a new Jigsaw is exactly what the series needs to stave off franchise fatigue. After all, few things are more irritating than a rusty Saw.

The U.S. Department of Education (ED) is responsible for implementing federal education policy. Following are links to recent agency regulatory activities that may impact cities and towns.
Responding to state and local concerns over the rigidity of No Child Left Behind, the U.S. Department of Education (ED) recently released a set of rules and guidelines designed to give states and local education agencies (LEAs) greater flexibility when implementing the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA).
Flexibility is being granted in eleven areas ranging from determining adequately yearly progress, to LEA improvement requirements, support for LEA school improvement efforts and use of "21st Century Learning Centers". Localities interested in pursuing greater school flexibility should contact their state education agencies (SEAs) to determine which actions the state plans to take and how they might work with the state to secure greater leeway.
Documents that explain the Department's proposals and rules for applying for greater flexibility through NCLB waivers can be found at: http://www.ed.gov/esea/flexibility.
In October 2010, the U.S. Department of Education issued a "Dear Colleague" letter to state and local education agencies informing them of their obligations under the Civil Rights Act to address all bullying and harassment, including that based on race, color, or national origin, as well as bulling and harassment that violates Title IX of the Civil Rights Act. The latter protects all students, male or female, who are harassed or bullied because of their sex, gender, or sexual orientation. The letter lays out the agency's position and the requirements that all school districts must follow to address the aforementioned types of bullying and harassment.

Judging by the posts I read in it....it sounds like some kind of meet up?? And it sounds like you are meeting on a certain day at a certain time? I'm lost... but I'm curious to know exactly what it is?? If I am allowed, I think we would like to come (this assuming we are able to afford to renew our passes for year 3, which hopefully will be yes). I think that's neat that you all seem to have some kind of meetup to meet each other in person!! So forgive me for being out of touch with what MF even IS..... :blush: b/c I probably sound like a REAL idiot not knowing what it is but wanting to go anyway :rotflol:
So what is it?? And can I come? :scratchin :cool:

For discussing anything related to both comics and Disney

Pages: 1
I just found out that on some Don Rosa fansite that the identity of Huey Dewey and Louie's father has been revealed. In fact Don Rosa drew him on the family tree. His name is Jamie Hawkins. That really surprised me.
Your confusion is understandable Geo X. To find the website that I was talking about you'll find it on the links page of The D.U.C.K. Man Website.
Roger, I'm pretty sure that's just a fan drawing. The boys' father isn't really named Jamie Hawkins.
Maybe you're right Lars. I always thought it would be something like Daniel Duck or something like that.
If their father were named "Jamie Hawkins", then their names would be Huey hawkins, Dewey Hawkins and Louie Hawkins. Barks always used types of fowl for his names of fowl-like people. So I wouldn't accept that. I assume that their father's name was "Duck", and he was a distant relative of both Donald and Daisy, as well as all the other "Duck people".
Which link is it?
I have always thought that Huey, Dewey and Louie's father looked something like the grown up boys in Don Rosa's drawing with the tombsone of Scrooge McDuck - but that's just what I think...
It's called The Don Rosa Fan Page or something like that Quackberg but I don't think the information is accurate. I think he might be Daisy's brother. I don't think he is related to Donald except by marriage. He is married to Donald's sister Della so that would make him his brother-in-law.
Don't see why the URL should be such a mystery, here it is: http://donrosanews.wordpress.com/2010/0 … es-father/
The image itself: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v728/ … 0_9283.jpg
As for the name, the site itself says "Note that the name of Huey, Dewey and Louie's father is just a name that has something to do with the owner of the drawing." The owner's site (http://geekycarguy.blogspot.com/) says that his name was added to the drawing later ("Now if you look closely under Huey, Dewy and Louie's names and then in the box for their father's name you'll see somthing wrote in. Neat little thing Mr. Rosa does for guys that buy this print.")
While I'm not sure about the name of HDL's father (seems like Rosa is trying to keep it as some sort of mystery), there are some other interesting things in this new version. Most interesting for me is that Fethry is still there while Ludwig von Drake is added and is married to Scrooge's sister(!).
Oh, is THAT all this is? Pfft. Yeah, I've seen that version of the family tree--on the one hand, I do like the fact that Ludwig is present; on the other, a problem stems from the fact that he's current-age while Matilda's still young-version: this has the unfortunate effect of making it look like a kind of creepy May-December marriage.
As for Fethry, when I asked Rosa about that he noted that, given his placement, it would be difficult to remove him at this point. Anyway, them Yurpeans like him, so whataryagonnado?

Cisco, Juniper conduct trial of fed's IPv6 tests.
Byline: firstname.lastname@example.com (Staff)The University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory The University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL) tests networking and data communications products. The university established the laboratory in 1988, "with the dual mission of providing a neutral environment to foster multi-vendor interoperability and in July conducted the first trial of the U.S. federal government's new IPv6 test suite on equipment from 10 leading network vendors, including Cisco, Juniper, Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard and Sun.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology National Institute of Standards and Technology, governmental agency within the U.S. Dept. of Commerce with the mission of "working with industry to develop and apply technology, measurements, and standards" in the national interest. (NIST (National Institute of Standards & Technology, Washington, DC, www.nist.gov) The standards-defining agency of the U.S. government, formerly the National Bureau of Standards. It is one of three agencies that fall under the Technology Administration (www.technology. ) is launching a new IPv6 compliance testing program called USGv6 Test Program. All routers, hosts and network security systems must pass the USGv6 Test Program by July 2010 in order to be sold to U.S. federal agencies.
IPv6 is the long-anticipated upgrade to the Internet's main communications protocol, known as IPv4. IPv6 features vastly more address space, built-in security and enhanced support for streaming media and peer-to-peer applications. Available for a decade, IPv6 has been slow to catch on in the United States. Now that unallocated IPv4 addresses are expected to run out in 2011, the pressure is on U.S. carriers and corporations to deploy IPv6 in the next few years.
UNH-IOL UNH-IOL University of New Hampshire-interoperability Laboratory held its test event in conjunction with NIST from July 13-17. The event allowed vendors to pre-test the USGv6 test specifications, provide input to the development of the test specifications and prepare for passing the tests in the first half of next year.
The test event "was to work on the NIST test specifications,'' says Erica Johnson, Director of UNH-IOL. "We were making sure that the test cases made senseC*Another goal of the event was to inform the vendors about the USGv6 Test Program. A lot of the vendors had no idea what the program was and what was going to be required of them.''
The NIST IPv6 test plan covers basic IPv6 functionality as well as related standards such as: IP Security (IPsec), Internet Key Exchange Internet key exchange (IKE) is the protocol used to set up a security association (SA) in the IPsec protocol suite. Overview
IKE is defined in RFC 2407, RFC 2408 and RFC 2409. IKEv2 is defined in RFC 4306. (IKEv2), Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (protocol) Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol - (DHCP) A protocol that provides a means to dynamically allocate IP addresses to computers on a local area network. The system administrator assigns a range of IP addresses to DHCP and each client computer on the LAN has its TCP/IP (DHCPv6), Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv3), Border Gateway Protocol Border Gateway Protocol - (BGP) An Exterior Gateway Protocol defined in RFC 1267 and RFC 1268. Its design is based on experience gained with Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP), as defined in STD 18, RFC 904 and EGP usage in the NSFNet backbone, as described in RFCs 1092 and 1093. (BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) The routing protocol that is used to span autonomous systems on the Internet. It is a robust, sophisticated and scalable protocol that was developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). 4+) and multicast requirements in MLDv2.
Timothy Winters, Senior Manager at UNH-IOL, said the test event participants found that they need to create more test cases for IPv6 features such as IKEv2, multicast and OSPFv3.
"We ran into a lot of configuration issues,'' Winters said. "We ran into a lot of issues related to support for security features.''
Nonetheless,Winters said that NIST is ``more than three quarters of the way there'' with its IPv6 test suite. ``In November, NIST will be able to point to all the different specifications and test cases that need to be run.''

Well, no. Not fishing.
Diamond Girl
Brandon Crawford- aside from the whole looking-like-Zac-Efron-thing – is the kind of guy you want to like from minute uno. His first Major League hit being a massive grand slam doesn't hurt either. So I like B-Craw and I am perfectly happy with seeing him at shortstop when I look into my semi-distant-future crystal ball. But when I look into my not-so-distant-future crystal ball and see him? Hm. Not necessarily so happy.
But sources (who may or may not be the writer's big-mouthed relative posing as a source) say that Sabean et al. are looking around for shortstop option cautiously but like Crawford as a candidate.
My "hm" just became a "hmmmm".
It's not like I'm pressing a knife to anyone's back to sign a shortstop to a million and one year deal. At some point, hopefully soon, Crawford will be ready for the bright lights and all that, I'm just not really willing to trust to that personally.
Would O-Cab be better? Nah. That is, no. But there mightbeprobablyis someone out there who could fill the role nicely, because I'm just not read to put a whole lot of faith in Crawford. While his defense is bee-yoo-tah-ful, he batted .204 last year and was somewhat dismal at more than a few points.
I have one eyebrow raised and my fingers crossed, behind my back.
(Fun fact about me: I once had a clam named Spock. He lived for, oh, 24 hours? Don't call Animal Control, please. We gave him a rocking name, if nothing else.)
Anyhow, maybe me and Sabean would get along after all. We seem to have eerily similar feelings about them young players.
This is creeping me out. No, Brian has not taken over my body and is now operating as me. But I should probably go now and wash my hands anyway.

Papelbon to the Phillies was announced officially today.
(Do I use those eyes too much? Well, of course I do. But then again, I am so bemused most the time that they are the only way to express my emotions. A picture speaks a thousand words and all that.)
It's a boatload of money and a boatload of years. You want specifics? Fine, more specifically, it's four years, 60 million. For Papelbon. Yeah. That makes sense, right? I don't meant to question the wonderfulness of Rubén Amaro Jr. or anything like that, but I personally would pay that kind of money to send Papelbon elsewhere- anywhere else than my team. Still, if he was going to leave, him and dem Phils were probably a match made in heaven. Okay, yes, I kinda really don't dig Jonathan. That much is clear.
But does he like cheesesteaks, I wonder?
(Sorry, terribly, necessary joke.)
Anyhow, my whole thing from last year about being willing to get stuffed into someone's suitcase to go the General Manger meetings still stands true.
I mean, don't endless talks about labor plans and the 'Stros moving leagues- will they? Won't they? Will they? Won't they?- sound absolutely riveting?
(Not, that is.)
Then again, I would dearly love to be there when Jon Daniels is named Executive of the Year.
Because he will.
He most definitely will.
Or else… there will be consequences. Dire ones.
Diamond Girl
p.s. And, oh, Dodgers? Not to question your brilliance either, but do you really- and I mean really- want Kemp for so many billions of years? Think carefully. Yes, there is a right answer. Yes, you are totally being tested.

Let's do a li'l poll today, shall we?
After we went on Daylight Savings, everyone asked, What are you doing with the extra hour? But baseball fans know that after the season comes to a close, the question is, What are you going to do with extra three hours? The three hours you would have spent listening to/watching/following with bitten nails The Game of that day.
Every year it's different for me. As of yet (thankfully) I have not taken up knitting or potholder weaving or anything like, but I have started to actually read things I've been meaning to read for… a while.
Yesterday, as I got to the end of a book, I actually found myself wondering why, after all these months, I was finally reading this book, and then realized that it is, of course, due to the offseason.
But enough about me (okay, it's never enough about me, but let's just pretend it is for the time being).
Or are you just spending a million hours a day on baseball trade rumor websites? Because if so, I'd like to inform you that experts have concluded that is really not good for your mental health, so I suggest you cease and desist on that. Then again, if your Twitter feed becomes overrun with boxing talk like it did for me last night, it might be the only way to stay sane. Paradoxes, paradoxes.
