Young's Literal Translation (YLT) | New International Version (NIV) |
29 And the multitudes crowding together upon him, he began to say, `This generation is evil, a sign it doth seek after, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet, | 29 As the crowds increased, Jesus said, "This is a wicked generation. It asks for a miraculous sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah. |

How the Queen of England Beat Everyone to the Internet
- Tuesday December 25, 2012
Peter Kirstein is the man who put the Queen of England on the internet. In 1976.
Peter Kirstein is the man who put the Queen of England on the internet. In 1976.
Larry Roberts calls himself "the founder of the internet" — and for good reason — but he was building on the work of Leonard Kleinrock.
The world's first internet transmission occurred on October 29, 1969. At least, that's what some people believe. Others say that it happened more than eight years later, when a repurposed delivery van equipped with a wireless transmitter sent a message from San Francisco to Norway and back to California by way of satellite.
Who invented the Internet? Wall Street Journal columnist L. Gordon Crovitz took a stab at this question on Monday and settled on Xerox — the copier company whose research and development group, Xerox PARC, invented just about everything people like about the personal computer. But PARC says otherwise.
All Van Jacobson wanted to do was upload a few documents to the internet. Unfortunately, it was 1985.
This article is not about Steve Jobs. Here are 11 other technology giants who left us this year, and the amazing legacies they left behind.
Paul Mockapetris and Jon Postel run the first successful test of the automated, distributed Domain Name System. DNS will lay the foundation for the massive expansion, popularization and commercialization of the internet.
2000: Half of United States households have internet access, according to Nielsen/NetRatings. Nielsen is best known for measuring the popularity of a certain other mass medium that went viral a half-century earlier. How fitting that this paradigm shift came with fin-de-siècle serendipity to a millennium that had already witnessed staggering technological advancement. Not since television […]

Ayers Rock, Australia
My Rating
Very good photo opertunities and no better way to see the rock . It is a pitty the resort charges like a wounded bull, I will not take any more of my visitors for an overnight experience because of the excess charges. $30.90 for a T bone steak, and you have to cook it yourself, what a rip off. Yes you have full control of your resort but not full control of locals bringing their guests to the rock

Like many people, I associate all books about dogs or horses, let alone fawns, with loss and heartbreak. "Old Yeller," "Black Beauty," "The Yearling" — these are not novels I want to return to, even if they are classics. At the end of this memoir, Donald McCaig summarizes the famous story about the Welsh prince Llywelyn, who owned a beloved hound named Gelert. One day, the prince returned from hunting to find his baby son's crib empty and the excited dog covered in blood. Horrified, the prince slew Gelert. "Moments later he discovered his unharmed son, next to the corpse of the wolf Gelert had killed protecting the child." Even as I typed that sentence, I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes.
Happily, "Mr. and Mrs. Dog" is an exception to the "heartbreak rule" about animal books. In this account of McCaig's run-up to the World Sheepdog Trials in Wales, all the main characters are alive at the end. Border collies Luke and June — the Mr. and Mrs. Dog of the title — perform well, sometimes superlatively well, at various field events. It's usually their handler — Donald McCaig himself — who makes the mistakes that sometimes cost them points.

Re: David and Goliath
Not that it makes much difference in these arguments at this point. (The design has been rejected and all.) One of my first derby entries was a character dancing much like Calvin from C & H. Now, I drew my character different than Calvin and changed more than just his costume but I was rejected because it was too similar to Calvin. Doesn't matter if you were inspired by Watterson or not. Don't copy his style to the letter and you shouldn't have a problem in the future

I love this! My boyfriend is a writer and we are both fencers, so we both got a kick out of this!
Re: Hamster vs. Microwave
I think some of these responses are kind of ridiculous. I thought this design was hilarious, and I would definitely buy it. How is it "inappropriate" or "tasteless"? Do those who object to it do so as hamster-lovers, or hamsters? PETA members maybe? The shirt isn't condoning cooking hamsters-- it's a cartoon. It humanizes hamsters, if anything. It's only IMPLIED that the hamster will be cooked, and as someone else pointed out, it's not as if the microwave is shown to be plugged in. Furthermore, the hamster is holding a white flag...it's only cruel if you assume no one will comply with his offer of surrender.
Re: Pet food vs. People food
I wish I had been paying attention. I would have definitely voted for this one. I LOVE it!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOO I wanted this shirt soooo badly. Why didn't it WIN!?! T___T
Is there a way i can buy this Manos, the Hands of Fate i realy like it
Love the shirt however I immediately thought of South Park

The question was of why would fukishima need active cooling when passive cooling is so "easy" to do.
That's like asking why the Ford Model-T couldn't do 200mph since a modern Ford Mustang can.
The answer is because the Fukishima Reactor wasn't designed to be passively cooled, the AP1000 is.

that is isn't quite so clean and neat when you're compiling a program that must work on millions of systems other than your own
But I would have thought they were already doing that. While going from 32bit to 64bit doesn't magically make everything faster, it does generally add a tiny bit of speed simply because of the extra registers Intel and AMD add for 64bit operations.
Even if it were only a few points, I would think that building as much as you know they must, ANY tiny bit of speed improvement would add up pretty fast (even if only 1% or 2%).

Re:Stealth rockets (230 comments)
Bad shape, try completely in ruins.
The problem with all these doom and gloom stories regarding the United States -- and this is something you touched upon quite correctly, I might add -- is that "debt" is just numbers on a piece of paper if you can do nothing to enforce it, that's the chief difference between nations and your household budget.
If you had a First World Army to back you up, Chase would be a lot more interested in dickering with you come loan refinance time.
Getting back to China...if China were to suddenly stop purchasing U.S. Government paper...decided to be real bad asses ("cash only", etc.) -- the net result would be an economic depression for the United States, follower quickly by the rest of the World. The net result for the country of China, a country were the bottom 90% are dependent on the Government for simple day to day existence (healthcare, food, etc.) would be an outright collapse of the Communist State and an almost inevitable Civil War to fill the power vacuum.

Re:Not first strike! (230 comments)
Historically, the USA has not 'struck first. Especially in the 20th century. They have waited until they or their allies had been attacked.
Veitnam war - the French were fighting there for over a decade before
Wrong, wrong, wrong. The french were long gone from vietnam when the US got into it. Unless you want to consider attacking anyone who ever had a war with an ally not a first strike, in which case, almost any nation would be fair play. Why not invade Spain? They've had wars with England our ally! Why not invade England? They've had wars with France our ally! etc... etc... Besides, you say "allies were attacked" . Where the french attacked in indochina? Wouldn't it be more accurate to say they were resisted?
Iraq war was a continuation of the Gulf War part 1 see above
WTF???? a continuation? what's that? a decade later? in which international accord is that NOT a new war?? btw, the US didn't formally declare war. If any other nation other than the US had done it, their leaders would have been prosecuted as war criminals for "fighting a war of agression", same charge was used against nazi leaders.
what about Grenada 1983? Panama 1989? Dominican Republic 1965? Honduras 1912? Bay of Pigs?
Which, as an American, I can say "it's good to be king!"

Re:Idiot (745 comments)
Oh! So now we're going to shift our conspiracy from generic off-shore drilling (which was clearly what you're first post was claiming) and shift the conspiracy theory to a tiny piece of off-shore drilling in the Gulf of Mexico.
But that's OK, I'll move with you in this conversation -- name a single proven find of oil that's been abandoned in the United States? Off-shore, on-shore, feel free to search both places.
I'll admit that I'm sending you on a snipe hunt because you won't find one. As much as politicians would have you believe otherwise, you don't have to do anything but listen to private industry to hear the truth. Conoco-Phillips just signed an export agreement with the new Libyan Government. Exxon-Mobil ABANDONED it's shale oil attempts even with all the money the Government tried to shove in their pockets.
It doesn't take a crystal ball to see the true state of oil in the United States -- it's not going to get any better. If we're lucky, we'll be able to buy ourselves more time with developments like Bakken, like the proven reserves off-shore, etc. Any belief that we'll ever return to the glory days of being in charge of the Petroleum Market is nothing but a pipe-dream (if you'll excuse the phrase).
Coincidentally, that's also why everyone (Government AND Private Industry) is pushing so hard for the Canadian Pipe-line deal. Do you honestly think anyone would spend the money and expend the political capital on such a project if their magically existed huge petroleum reservoirs within the borders of the United States?
Re:Idiot (745 comments)
Here's an interesting article for ya.
"Can the U.S. return to its long-gone throne as the world's top producer of crude oil? A Goldman Sachs report, quoted in the Sunday Times of London recently, contended that shale plays and new technologies could push total production to 10.9 million barrels per day by 2017. "
Yep...and it's such a great opportunity that not a single private company has any interest WHATSOEVER in developing it.
Same goes with the "oodles and oodles" of oil supposedly sitting just off the coast -- not one single member of Exxon-Mobile, Conoco-Phillips, etc. has made any demand or claim on any of the land POLITICIANS claim is so full of oil.
These pipe-dreams are created by Politicians, cooked by the media, and eaten up by individuals like you so absolutely terrified that you may have to change how you do things that you're willing to grasp at any straw within reach.
Re:Lovely piece of nature? (745 comments)
"Lovely piece of nature" is a complete lie. The place is a cold, barren, dark, mosquito-infested wasteland. It's one of the least hospitable areas on earth.
Why are you spreading falsehoods about it?
Also, the part they want to drill for oil in is ecologically insignificant.
The arguments against drilling there are all essentially "I hate oil" and "I don't care about the people who would benefit from drilling there. Screw them."
I'm more swayed by the people who actually live there who are fighting tooth, nail, and claw to PREVENT drilling...but thanks for the typical "everyone who doesn't agree with me is a whiner...and probably a libural!" schtick (as made popular by talk-radio).
P.S. -- I could care less what people think who DON'T live there...it isn't for the people who do to sacrifice just to subsidize every 10mpg SUV driver who's too stupid to see the writing on the wall (even when it's directly in their face).
Re:The future is here at last (417 comments)
I am not sure about the recent part, there have always been miracle cancer cures just around the corner for as long as I have been old enough to read the news.

While you are current (same with "free energy" contraptions), HIV/AIDS is different than Cancer in that it is a Virus in the classic sense. One hell of a smart virus, to be sure -- but a virus none the less and ALL viruses can be defeated (even if the solution initially evades us).
Simple as evolution itself, really.

While toxicity was an issue, (they were called "zip fuels") the main problem they could never overcome was the fouling of the engines by the boron-gunk left behind.
During the 1970s, Northern-Pacific Railroad had a similar problem when they tried powering their extensive live of turbine-engined Freight Locomotives with Coal-slurry rather than fuel oil/diesel.
Re:Importance of Hydrogen (152 comments)
The only problem is that Hydrogen has more lifting potential than Helium. Doesn't mean it couldn't be made to work, but you can't just exchange Hydrogen with Helium and not make changes elsewhere (shedding weight, etc.)

The government takes about $200 billion dollars a month, of that $20 is debt service. That leaves $180 billion. They problem is that government spends more than it takes it. It's going to have to cut $150+ billion a month. Smaller government is not a bad thing.
Also, Obama has no plan, he just criticizes other. And Obama says we all have to sacrifice, what about the 47% of tax payers who don't pay any? When are they going to sacrifice. The top 10% of taxpayers pay 70% of the taxes and 47% pay nothing. The is the travesty.
This is a crisis created by Obama and the Democrats and their obsession to spend. Obama running up huge deficits and now blaming the conservatives who want to restore the financial credibility. Obama deserves all the negatives from this.
In other words -- "it's all Obama's fault, and the Democrats fault...any anyone else who doesn't agree with me!"
The Republicans spent themselves into bankruptcy in order to take control of the House of Representatives, that means son they own EVERY SINGLE THINGS that happens right along with Democrats and Obama. This "it's the last guys fault!" crap didn't cut mustard when Democrats "blamed Bush" IT DOES NOT CUT MUSTARD WHEN REPUBLICANS WANT TO BLAME DEMOCRATS.

text: STATE OF MAINE MAINE LABOR RELATIONS BOARD Case No. 91-03 Issued: January 31, 1991 _________________________________ ) TEAMSTERS UNION LOCAL NO. 340, ) ) Complainant, ) ) v. ) DECISION AND ORDER ) TOWN OF ORONO, ) ) Respondent. ) _________________________________) The questions presented in this prohibited practice case are whether the Town of Orono (hereinafter referred to as "Employer") violated 26 M.R.S.A. 964(1)(A), (C) and (E) through certain statements made by one of the members of the Orono Town Council to a bargaining unit employee represented by the Complainant, Teamsters Union Local No. 340 ("Union"). We hold that the Councilman's statement violated the Municipal Public Employees Labor Relations Law ("Act"), 26 M.R.S.A. Ch. 9-A (1988 and Supp. 1990). We will, therefore, fashion an appropriate remedy to redress such violation and to effectuate the policies of the Act. The prohibited practice complaint was filed by the Union on July 10, 1990, pursuant to 968(5)(B) of the Act. The Employer filed its answer on July 27, 1990, denying that the statement complained of was uttered by a person who is a public employer within the meaning of the Act, denying that the Employer transgressed any provision of the Act, and moving to dismiss the Union's complaint. A prehearing conference on the case was held on August 16, 1990, Public Chair Peter T. Dawson presiding. On August 21, 1990, Chair Dawson issued a Prehearing Conference Memorandum and Order, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Prior to the evidentiary hearing and in compliance with the Prehearing Order, the parties each filed a written memorandum briefly outlining their factual and legal positions. -1- A hearing on the merits of the case was conducted on September 28, 1990, by the Maine Labor Relations Board ("Board"), Public Chair Peter T. Dawson presiding, with Employer Representative Thacher E. Turner and Employee Representative George W. Lambertson. The Complainant was repre- sented by Carl Guignard, one of its business agents, and the Respondent was represented by Thomas C. Johnston, Esq. The parties were given full oppor- tunity to examine and cross-examine witnesses, to introduce documentary evidence, and to make argument. The parties filed posthearing briefs, the last of which was received on November 15, 1990, which were considered by the Board in reaching its decision. The Board met to deliberate on the case on December 3, 1990. JURISDICTION The Complainant, Teamsters Union Local No. 340, is the certified bargaining agent, within the definition of 26 M.R.S.A. 962(2) (1988), for a bargaining unit composed of all full-time Police Sergeants, Patrolmen and Police Detectives employed by the Town of Orono. The Respondent, the Town of Orono, is the public employer, within the definition of 26 M.R.S.A. 962(7) (Supp. 1990), of the employees whose classifications are included in the above-named bargaining unit. The jurisdiction of the Maine Labor Relations Board to hear this case and to render a decision and order herein lies in 26 M.R.S.A. 968(5)(C) (1988). FINDINGS OF FACT Upon review of the entire record, the Labor Relations Board finds: 1. Teamsters Union Local No. 340 is the certified bargaining agent, within the definition of 26 M.R.S.A. 962(2) (1988), for a bargaining unit consisting of all full-time Police Sergeants, Patrolmen and Police Detectives employed by the Town of Orono. 2. The Town of Orono is the public employer, within the definition of 26 M.R.S.A. 962(7) (Supp. 1990), of the employees whose classifications are included in the bargaining unit mentioned in the preceding paragraph. 3. The most recent collective bargaining agreement between the par- -2- ties for the unit noted in paragraph 1 hereof expired on June 30, 1989. 4. The parties have been involved in direct negotiations and have particiated in mediation in an effort to reach a successor agreement to that mentioned in the preceding paragraph. 5. The Orono Town Council is the general legislative body of the Town of Orono and consists of seven elected members. 6. The Town Council's role in collective bargaining is: to select the chief negotiator and bargaining team that represents the public employer, to determine the parameters of the management team's negotiating authority, and to review, ratify or reject, and fund the final tentative agreement reached at the bargaining table. 7. During the current round of negotiations mentioned in paragraph 4 above, the Town Council has met in executive session with the chief manage- ment negotiator to discuss the progress of the negotiations. During such discussions, the Council members have reached a consensus on the employer's position on the various issues outstanding between the parties at the bargaining table. 8. At all times relevant hereto, Scott Thomas has been a duly-elected member of the Orono Town Council. 9. Frustrated with what they perceived to be a lack of progress in the negotiations between the parties, off-duty employees, including members of the bargaining unit mentioned in paragraph 1 hereof, engaged in infor- mational picketing in front of both the Orono Town Hall and Mr. Thomas' insurance and real estate office, which is located across the street from the town hall. 10. While engaging in picketing, the employees shouted to passing motorists such things as "honk if you support [the employees]," "give us a contract," and statements to the effect that the employees couldn't afford to pay a portion of the premium for health insurance. 11. On one occasion, Scott Thomas drove past the picketers in his car, a Saab, and someone on the picket line shouted "how much does a Saab cost?" Shortly thereafter, Mr. Thomas' wife, Susan Thomas, drove by in her car, -3- also a Saab, and someone shouted "how much do two Saabs cost?" 12. On several occasions, the town employees engaged in handbilling. The employees also carried their picket signs into a meeting of the Orono Town Council. 13. While he was a member of the Orono School Committee, Scott Thomas initiated the order for building a "creative playground" in the Town of Orono. Mr. Thomas was involved in the playground project throughout its planning and actual construction. 14. The playground was constructed by volunteers, working under the direction of a consultant from New York. During the construction phase of the project, Scott Thomas worked as a "foreman" and he chaired the tools and materials committee. 15. On June 13, 1990, prior to 8:50 p.m., Scott Thomas and others at the playground site loaded a trailer that was attached to Susan Thomas' car, with twelve-foot long 2 x 6 dimensional lumber. The lumber was going to be stored on the trailer overnight at the Thomas home so that it could be cut on a heavy-duty saw at the University of Maine, early the next morning, for use at the playground. 16. The trailer was heavily loaded and some of the 2 x 6's were extended beyond either the front or the rear of the trailer in order to balance the load. 17. Prior to Ms. Thomas' driving away from the playground area with the trailer in tow, Scott Thomas told her to go very slow and to go straight home with the loaded trailer. 18. At approximately 8:50 p.m. on June 13, 1990, Patrolman Roger Gray was standing in one of the doorways of the truck bay of the Orono Fire Department and was talking with a group of people that included a fire- fighter, two call firefighters, and a couple of other persons. 19. Patrolman Gray observed a black Saab convertible, with the top down and towing a trailer, on Goodrich Avenue approaching the intersection with Main Street, U.S. Route 2. 20. Although the traffic light controlling traffic approaching Main Street on Goodrich Avenue was red, Patrolman Gray observed the car mentioned -4- in the preceding paragraph enter the intersection at approximately 10 miles per hour and turn left onto Main Street. 21. Patrolman Gray got into his police cruiser, caught up with the black Saab, and pulled the car over on North Main Street, approximately one-quarter mile from the Goodrich Avenue-Main Street intersection. Throughout this time, the Saab was travelling at approximately 10 miles per hour. 22. The Saab was being driven by Susan Thomas and the Thomas' 9-year-old son, Michael, was riding in the right front passenger seat. 23. When Susan Thomas' car was stopped by Patrolman Gray, no registra- tion plate was displayed on the trailer, the trailer had a rear light out, and the load on the trailer was unsecured. 24. Patrolman Gray issued a court summons to Susan Thomas, charging failure to stop for a red light in violation of 29 M.R.S.A. 947(3)(A). 25. When he returned home after a Town Council meeting on June 13, 1990, Susan Thomas told her husband that she had been stopped by a police officer for passing a red light and that, based on something Michael Thomas had said, she might not be guilty. 26. On the morning of June 14, 1990, in response to his dad's request that he describe what he had seen, Michael Thomas said that he had been looking up at the traffic light and he saw it turn red just as the car was passing under it. This was the same thing Michael had told his mother shortly after she received the traffic summons. 27. Scott Thomas began his day's work at the creative playground on June 14 at 7:00 a.m. At some point during the morning, Mr. Thomas walked over to the police department, met Captain Green and asked the latter whether it was permissible to speak with Patrolman Gray about the traffic summons. Captain Green said that Mr. Thomas should speak with the officer, who was not on duty at that time, and Mr. Thomas asked the Captain to have Patrolman Gray contact him when the officer came on duty. 28. The volunteers who worked on building the creative playground were fed dinner in the truck bay of the fire station every evening of the week -5- during which the construction occurred. 29. Patrolman Gray reported for duty at approximately 5:00 p.m. on June 14, at which time Captain Green told him that Scott Thomas was working at the playground and wanted to speak with the officer. 30. At that time, Patrolman Gray knew that Scott Thomas was a member of the Town Council, having previously delivered a council agenda and other municipal documents to Mr. Thomas' home. 31. Patrolman Gray proceded directly from the police station, located downstairs from the fire station in the Orono Town Hall, to the creative playground. Upon arriving at the playground, Patrolman Gray was told that Mr. Thomas was having supper at the fire station. 32. At the fire station, Patrolman Gray saw Scott Thomas eating with other people who had been working on the playground. Gray used the fire department paging system to request that Mr. Thomas meet him in the dispatch area. 33. Mr. Thomas walked over to the dispatch area, met Patrolman Gray and said that he had some information that he wanted to relate concerning the red light incident the previous evening. Thomas stated that he was eating at that time and asked whether it would be convenient to talk later or was the officer going out on patrol. Gray said that he was going on patrol and the two men proceeded to an office alcove in the quarters area of the fire station. 34. Mr. Thomas began the conversation by saying that he was not asking the officer to "fix" the ticket and that he was not going to discuss the matter with either the police chief or the town manager; however, he had relevant information for the officer that might persuade him that the sum- mons should not have been issued. 35. Mr. Thomas told the officer that, prior to Susan Thomas' departure from the playground with the trailer the previous evening, he had urged his wife to drive straight home and that, perhaps, she had misinterpreted his statement as meaning that she should not stop for traffic control signals on the way home. -6- 36. Mr. Thomas also stated that his wife and son had perceived the attendant circumstances differently than had the officer and proceded to relate the substance of Michael Thomas' observations concerning the traffic light, as reported in paragraph 26 above. 37. Patrolman Gray stated that, in addition to the citation for passing a red light, he could have issued summonses to Ms. Thomas for the unregistered trailer, for having a rear light out on the trailer, and for towing the trailer with an unsecured load. Mr. Thomas explained the size and distribution of the load by outlining the facts reported in paragraphs 15 and 16 hereof. Second, the trailer was registered, although no registration plate was displayed because the tailgate had been removed. Third, the burnt out light was only one of several on the back of the trailer and the issuance of a defect card, not a summons, would have been an appropriate response. Patrolman Gray responded that, despite all of these explanations, he could have issued a summons for each of the problems noted in this paragraph. 38. Patrolman Gray then stated that, in addition to himself, there were three witnesses who saw Susan Thomas pass the red light. Mr. Thomas asked who the witnesses were and, upon being informed of their identities, said "[i]sn't that convenient?" 39. Patrolman Gray then stated that, if Ms. Thomas didn't like the charge, she could go to court. The conversation then proceded as follows: Mr. Thomas: I realize that we can go to court--but you know and I know that you know who I am, you know what my name is, you know that I'm on the council. I know that there are--and we both know that there are tensions between the town and the contract employees and there's no contract and all that." Patrolman Gray then leapt out of his chair and raised his voice, stating: "Are you insinuating that I misused my power?" Mr. Thomas: "Let me say this: it's not beyond the realm of possibility." Patrolman Gray: "Well, you better see my chief." Mr. Thomas: "I am not going to see your chief. I am going to see the District Attorney, Chris Almy." -7- 40. Patrolman Gray terminated the conversation and left the room and the fire station. 41. Mr. Thomas did not attempt to have Patrolman Gray disciplined as a result of the converstaion reported in paragraphs 34-40 above and the officer has not been disciplined as a result thereof. 42. On August 16, 1990, Susan Thomas, acting through her attorney, entered a plea of guilty to the charge of failing to stop for a red light in the Maine District Court and paid the fine assessed for the infraction. DISCUSSION The first issue presented is whether Scott Thomas was a public employer at the time that he uttered the statements that are the subject of this case. The Board's prohibited practice jurisdiction is limited to pre- venting public employers, their representatives and agents, public employees, public employee organizations and their agents, members, and bargaining agents from engaging in any of the conduct prohibited by 964 of the Act. 26 M.R.S.A. 968(5)(A) (1988). In determining whether an individual charged with having committed a prohibited practice is a public employer, the Board has held that public employer status exists if the charged conduct " . . . arose out of and was performed [by the individual] in the course of [his or her] official duties with the [public employer] . . . . " Auburn Firefighters Ass'n. v. Valente, No. 87-19, slip op. at 2, 10 NPER ME-18017 (Me.L.R.B. Sept. 11, 1987); Teamsters Local Union No. 48 v. Eastport School Dept., No. 85-18, slip op. at 2, 8 NPER ME-17003 (Me.L.R.B. Oct. 10, 1985); Pullen v. Town of Winthrop, No. 85-17, slip op. at 2 and 8, 8 NPER ME-17002 (Me.L.R.B. Aug. 13, 1985). At the outset, we note that the public employer is not liable for all of the statements or actions of the persons who serve as its municipal officials, officers, employees or agents, unless the relationship between the conduct at issue and the individual's status with the public employer described above is present. It was established at the hearing that it is common and proper for a private citizen who has received a traffic summons to discuss the citation with the issuing officer. A person who, for some purposes, is a public employer does not forfeit the right to have a similar -8- discussion merely by virtue of his/her employment. In the instant case, the portion of conversation between Mr. Thomas and Patrolman Gray reported in paragraphs 33 through 38 of our findings of fact is typical of such a discussion. Had the conversation at issue been limited to these and simi- lar matters concerning the circumstances of the red light incident and the issuance of the citation, the event would have been a "purely personal mat- ter" between Mr. Thomas and Patrolman Gray. Scott Thomas changed the tenor of the conversation by explicitly referring to his membership on the Town Council and by suggesting that Officer Gray's motive in stopping Ms. Thomas and issuing her the citation might be connected with the negotiations problems between the Town and Officer Gray's bargaining agent. In collective bargaining, the Town Council selects the chief management negotiator, determines the nego- tiator's bargaining authority, and reviews, ratifies (or rejects) and funds all final tentative agreements reached at the bargaining table. By men- tioning his status as a Town Councillor and referring to the on-going negotiations--a subject with which his sole connection is his council membership--Mr. Thomas brought the conversation into the scope of his posi- tion as a public employer, within the definition of 962(7) of the Act. Second, the Employer has argued that Scott Thomas was not "acting on behalf of" the Town of Orono at the time of the exchange at issue because he " . . . did not receive prior approval or ratification of his actions." Main brief on behalf of the Employer at 3. We rejected a similar averment in an earlier case where we stated: The District does not dispute the fact that the statements were highly improper but instead urges in essence that the Superintendent is solely responsible because the trustees were unaware that he intended to make the statements and did not authorize the making of such statements. This contention does not absolve the District because it is responsible for statements and actions of its agents and representatives made in the context of employee relations matters. See, eg., Bridgton Federation of Public Employees [v. Hamill, No. 81-54, slip op.] at 9 [, 4 NPER 20-13013 (Me.L.R.B. Nov. 19. 1981)] (Town is responsible for the "personal opinions" of its Chief of Police and Road Commissioner.) In addition, there is no evidence that the trustees made any effort in front of the employees to repudiate [the Superintendent's] state- ments clearly and unequivocally. -9- Teamsters Local Union No. 48 v. Rumford/Mexico Sewerage District, No. 84-08, slip op. at 7, 6 NPER 20-15008 (Me.L.R.B. Mar. 12, 1984); accord, Teamsters Local Union No. 48 v. Town of Bar Harbor, No. 82-35, slip op. at 12-13, 5 NPER 20-14004 (Me.L.R.B. Nov. 2, 1982). Both of these cases stand for the proposition that a public employer can avoid being adjudicated of being in violation of the Act, as a result of the conduct of a person with apparent authority to act on the employer's behalf, by effectively disa- vowing the individual's violative conduct and correcting any effects flowing therefrom, promptly upon learning of such conduct. In the instant case, Scott Thomas is a member of the Town's general legislative body, in which all of the powers of the Town are vested, and, as we have held, the statement at issue arose out of and was uttered within the scope of Mr. Thomas' status as a public employer. At the latest, the Orono Town Council learned of Mr. Thomas' statement when the Town was served with the instant prohibited practice complaint. Although there was no evidence in the record that the Council ever ratified the statement in contention, there was no evidence that the Council ever repudiated or otherwise divorced itself from Mr. Thomas' comments. In the circumstances, we conclude that the Repondent Town of Orono is responsible for any prohibited practice adjudicated as a result of the statement at issue. Turning to the merits of the case, the Complainant has charged that Mr. Thomas' statement that he was "going to see the District Attorney" violated 26 M.R.S.A. 964(1)(A) (1988). The essence of the declaration at issue is that Patrolman Gray may have misused his authority as a police officer and that Mr. Thomas would seek prosecution of such alleged official malfeasance. The officer's alleged transgression inherently involved union activity because Mr. Thomas was suggesting that Patrolman Gray may have been motivated by the on-going negotiations problems between the parties in stopping Susan Thomas and issuing her the citation for passing a red light. The standard that we apply in considering alleged violations of 964(1)(A) is as follows: A finding of interference, restraint, or coercion does not turn on the employer's motive or on whether the coercion succeeded or failed, however, but is based on "whether the employer engaged in conduct which, it may reasonably be said, tends to interfere with -10- the free exercise of employee rights under the Act." NLRB v. Ford, 170 F.2d 735 738 (6th Cir. 1948); Teamsters Local 48 v. Town of Oakland, MLRB No. 78-30 at 3 (Aug. 24, 1978). Maine State Employees Ass'n v. State Development Office, No. 84-21, slip op. at 8-9, 7 NPER 20-15017 (Me.L.R.B. July 6, 1984), aff'd, 499 A.2d 165 (Me. 1985). Applying the above analysis, the fact that Patrolman Gray testified that he felt intimidated as a result of Mr. Thomas' comments is not dispos- itive herein. Neither is Patrolman Gray's apparent continued adherence to the union nor his refusal to withdraw the traffic summons. Union mem- bership and representation and participation in collective bargaining are at the core of the rights protected by 963 of the Act. To a person in Officer Gray's position, a natural and reasonable consequence of the con- versation at issue would be to blame the threat of possible prosecution on the continuing collective bargaining difficulties between the parties; i.e., had it not been for the bargaining dispute, Mr. Thomas would not have questioned Officer Gray's motive in issuing the summons and the threat would not have been made. It can reasonably be said that Mr. Thomas' statement tended to disparage the statutory right to engage in collective bargaining and to discourage participation therein. Second, in considering the reasonable likely impact of Mr. Thomas' statement, we note the relationship between Mr. Thomas and Patrolman Gray. The Board has recognized that public employees are economically dependent on their employers and, because of that dependence, employees necessarily tend "to pick up intended implications of [statements by their employers] that might be more readily dismissed by a more disinterested ear." Maine State Employees Association v. State of Maine, No. 82-01, slip op. at 5, 5 NPER 20-13020 (Me.L.R.B. Apr. 5, 1982), aff'd sub nom., State of Maine v. Maine State Employees Association, No. CV-82-185 (Me.Super.Ct., Ken.Cty., Oct. 30, 1984). The Orono Town Council is the ultimate employer of all of the Orono employees. A charge of official misconduct, directed to one of the municipal employees by a member of the Council, carries with it a threat to the employee's continued employment. Third, as Mr. Thomas' testimony suggested, stories about the conversation were rampant among the municipal employees; therefore, the negative impact thereof on the exercise -11- of statutory rights was not limited to officer Gray. We hold that, in the circumstances, Mr. Thomas' statement tended to interfere with Officer Gray's exercise of the rights guaranteed by the Act and violated 26 M.R.S.A. 964(1)(A). The Employer's final argument concerning the conversation at issue is that Mr. Thomas' statement is protected by the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. The act of verbally protesting an arrest, including the use of crude and vulgar language, is constitutionally protected speech. State v. Janisczak, 579 A.2d 736, 739 (Me. 1990). It is undisputed that the first amendment also protects the right of a citizen who has received a traffic summons to discuss the matter with the issuing officer. While per- sons do not forfeit their first amendment rights merely by virtue of being public employers, The Teachers Association of S.A.D. No. 49 v. The Board of Directors of M.S.A.D. No. 49, No. 80-49, slip op. at 6, 3 NPER 20-12005 (Me.L.R.B. Nov. 18, 1980), statements that violate 964(1)(A) of the Act are not constitutionally protected. Id.; Council 74 AFSCME v. Bangor Water District, No. 80-26, slip op. at 11, 3 NPER 20-12008 (Me.L.R.B. Dec. 22, 1980). The bulk of the discourse between Mr. Thomas and Officer Gray, as described in paragraphs 33 through 38 of our findings of fact, is constitu- tionally protected; however, the statement that violated 964(1)(A) was beyond the protection of the first amendment. The Complainant's second major contention was that the Employer's con- duct violated 26 M.R.S.A. 964(1)(C) (1988). We have stated repeatedly that this section of the Act prohibits the public employer from providing " . . . too much financial or other support of, encouraging the formation of, or actually participating in, the affairs of the union and thereby potentially dominating it." Teamsters Local Union No. 48 v. City of Calais, No. 80-29, slip op. at 5, 2 NPER 20-11018 (Me.L.R.B. May 13, 1980); Oxford Hills Teachers Association v. M.S.A.D. No. 17 Board of Directors, No. 88-13, slip op. at 45-46, 12 NPER ME-21000 (Me.L.R.B. June 16, 1989); Council 93, AFSCME v. City of Portland, No. 90-14, slip op. at 15-16, 13 NPER ________ (Me.L.R.B. Oct. 18, 1990); Teamsters Local Union No. 340 v. Portland Housing Authority, No. 90-13, slip op. at 9, 13 NPER __________ (Me.L.R.B. Dec. 3, 1990). There was no evidence in support of the Union's averment; -12- therefore, it is dismissed. The Union's final charge was that the Employer failed to negotiate in good faith, as required by 26 M.R.S.A. 965(1)(C) (1988), in violation of 26 M.R.S.A. 964(1)(E) (1988). While there are numerous ways in which to violate the duty to negotiate in good faith, there was no evidence suggesting any such violation in the record. The failure to bargain charge is dismissed. Having held that Mr. Thomas' statement violated 964(1)(A) of the Act, we will fashion a remedy that will effectuate the policies of the Act. In considering the appropriate remedy, we note that the violative statement arose spontaneously as the conversation between Mr. Thomas and Officer Gray became somewhat heated and said declaration was not part of any established pattern of violative conduct by the Employer. In the circumstances, we will order the Employer and specifically Council Member Scott Thomas to cease and desist from groundlessly threatening bargaining unit employees with possible criminal prosecution.

Problems with CSS float
i am having a problem with CSS.
I have three DIVs that should be placed next to each other within a container DIV. However, the middle DIV should stretch out to fill the whole empty space. The left DIV is floatet left, the right DIV is floatet right.
For some reason the right DIV drops to the next line but i fail to see why, since there would be enough space for it (exactly the right space, actually) to be placed there (where it belongs).
I have create a little graphic to illustrate my problem.
I will also add all according source code (HTML & CSS). However, please be aware that the container ("bottom-corners") which contains the three DIVs ("left","mid" and "right") is, in itself, nested in another container.
The correct result this, should be that the two DIV elements on the left and on the right stick to their sides, resulting in those corners (see image). The middle DIV should stretch out to fill all the space that is left with the appropriate color. I am trying to achieve a rounded corner effect here.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
(Please note: i can not use fixed width on this container. I can not use 100% or any percentage width either)
Code:/* the html */

 /* the css */ .bottom-corners .left { float: left; width: 10px; height: 10px; background-image: url('/img/interface/tr_corner_left.gif'); background-repeat: no-repeat; } .bottom-corners .mid { height: 10px; background-image: url('/img/interface/tr_flow.gif'); background-repeat: repeat-x; margin: 0px 10px; } .bottom-corners .right { float: right; width: 10px; height: 10px; background-image: url('/img/interface/tr_corner_right.gif'); background-repeat: no-repeat; }

William Parker's long career in experimental music hasn't diluted the earthiness of the bassist's Bronx upbringing. His Organ Quartet, which gave its first-ever live performance at Bohemian Caverns on Sunday night, might be described as "avant-garde soul jazz." More often than not, though, it was just plain soul.
Alongside drummer Gerald Cleaver, the 59-year-old Parker spent the set keeping pace with bandmates who were constantly in flux. Yet despite shifts in tempo and form, and even spontaneous changes of tune, they never sacrificed the tight grooves at the music's root. Indeed, they grounded the often abstract sounds erupting from the bandstand.
As the band name implies, however, it was organist Cooper-Moore — not Parker — whose sound was most prominent. Whether accompanying the horn soloists (tenor saxophonist Darryl Foster and special guest trumpeter Lewis "Flip" Barnes) or building his own solos, from blues and gospel licks to psychedelic noise and back again, Cooper-Moore's electric keyboard screamed and growled its way to the forefront. If the noisier portions seemed at times to be heading off the rails, the organist made clear that he knew exactly what he was doing, mouthing along to every note before capping the wild lines with soulful licks and signaling a return to the theme with a glance to the horns.
Foster, an R&B veteran, played eloquent, flowing lines with a sexy edge. Barnes, on the other hand, was a power player; his aggressive staccato attack nearly turned his ax into another percussion instrument. Their freewheeling solos on "Criminals in the White House" (a Parker original composed specifically for the occasion) marked the evening's musical extremes, the trumpet's hard edges giving way to the saxophone's soft center.
But while the rhythm section remained in the background, the performance was so consistently swinging that there could be no doubt as to who was in charge. With Cleaver in close pursuit, Parker visibly willed the grooves into place, his head nodding along beneath his trademark knit hat. The earthy blues that closed the set felt like the natural conclusion.

Does anyone know of any standards on canning with TVP (textured vegetable protein)? It's a meat substitute used by vegetarians, so it comes in forms similar to ground beef for instance. Any ideas on restrictions, quality, timing? |
Follow-Up Postings:
No personal experience, just things I have read about it on other forums. 1) it would be re-canning already processed foods which isn't recommended with any foods for several reasons - unknown ingredients (fillers, stabilizers, etc), waste of energy, time and resources, etc. 2) it is soy so would have to be canned hot and then pressure canned not BWB canned so resulting quality would be very questionable 3) unknown processing times and no tested recipes available. I won't go into all the arguments and discussions about the health issues and dietary restrictions associated with eating much TVP as all that info is readily available on the web. Dave |
Thanks Dave. I don't think she wants to just can tvp (this is for a friend, not me), but she wants to use it in chili and spaghetti sauce for instance. So the pressure canning wouldn't be an issue, as that was the plan anyway. It's a shame they don't have any testing on this area. Thanks for the feedback. |
- Posted by monique_ca z9 CA mothrlode (My Page) on Sat, Sep 7, 13 at 19:34
I am a veg and MFP too. I would recommend that she make the chili and spaghetti sauce as meatless, following approved recipes, and just add the tvp when she cooks up the meal. |

Seems to me there is loads of misinformation going around about soy products. It seems to me that Dairy councils have been working overtime spouting complete and utter rubbish. How to make TVP Soak soy beans in water for 8 hours blend 1 cup of soy beans with 3.5 cups of water. either simmer this for 20 mins and drain through muslin or similar or drain first and then simmer for 20 mins. You now have soy milk making tofu Add a mixture of 50/50 lemon juice and water or white 5% vinegar and water. Stir and leave for a couple of mins. if does not curdle add a little more lemon/water mix to the say milk until it curdles. Don't add more than a cup at a time until you get used to the amounts. Drain into a cloth, pat square or round or to your desired shape and place a small weight on top of the wrapped tofu curds until firm. You now have tofu ( lots of examples on youtube) To make tvp place tofu in a freezer for 2 days thaw and squeeze water from tofu. crumble into a bowl. you now have moist tvp which can be flavoured and made into shapes. you can air dry this tvp to get the dry stuff you buy in the shops. There are no additives in tvp . I do a lot of canning and store tvp dry and add it to sauces. tvp reconstitutes quickly in water and can be added to any sauce. Using soy will not under any circumstances give you female hormones and as i said is scare stories put about by meat marketing boards and dairy councils. |

"I loved that there were thank you cards that matched the invitation that I chose, however, I would have preferred to have a picture uploaded with it, and this particular invitation/thank you card set doesn't allow you to have a picture"
"The simplicity and high quality of these cards make them perfect for memorial thank you cards. We received them quickly, and they were packed with great care."
"I love the elegant design with flowers that appear almost hand-painted in water colors on both sides and the texture of the paper is very nice. The teal color is my favorite and appropriate for either male or female receivers."
"I bought this for my mother in law, she´s a teacher and the design fit perfectly. These sets of 10 thank you cards are a perfect stocking stuffer."
"I LOVE this post card, it is beautiful and quality is top notch! I wish the card said "Thank you" as that is just what I prefer, "Thanks" sounds as if one is too busy to take more time for the proper "Thank you." ...At the price point I would order the card, again and again. THANK YOU, Tinyprints."

Fire Fighter Vodka packaging makes its alcoholic contents seem extra special, like the sort of drink you'd only crack out on exceptional occasions. The tagline "Use in case of party," is pretty perfect.
Timur Salikhov of Russia conceived a branding concept that looks remarkably different to the way that spirits are usually presented, rather contained within what looks like a genuine metal fire extinguisher canister. A characteristic bold red was used to coat the majority of the beverage bottle and a silver top with a flared cap makes Fire Fighter Vodka packaging resemble one further. A clean and bold white typeface labels the product very simply, as one would find on the home safety device.
It's ready for consumption in the event of a near alcohol outage crisis.

Disney's Snow White Project Gets a New Director and a New Title
Movie News By Nathan Adams on August 4, 2011 | Be the First To CommentThe saga of the three Snow White movies continues. While most of the media attention has been going to Universal's Snow White and The Huntsman and Relativity's Lily Collins/Julia Roberts starring Snow White project up to this point, that's because they got a bit of a head start in the Snow White game. Disney announced a while ago that they were going to be throwing their hats into the ring and turning this battle of the Snow Whites into a three-way affair, and there appears to be some motion on that front. When last we reported on this film it was going to be called Snow and the Seven, and it was about a 19th century Englishwoman traveling to Hong Kong for her father's funeral, along with seven deadly companions. That concept seems to still be in place, and we also know a bit more about it. This Englishwoman, it seems, is being pursued by an ancient evil, and the warriors accompanying her are not only from an ancient order of fighters, they are also a multi-national group of colorful characters with different fighting styles.
Disney Fires Major Shot in Snow White Fight
Movie News By Nathan Adams on February 2, 2011 | Comments (1)It has been previously reported that both Universal and Relativity are vying to put together competing live action Snow White Films for 2012. Universal has been hard at work on Snow White and the Huntsman which reportedly is going to star Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, and Viggo Mortenson, and Relativity is putting together The Brother's Grimm: Snow White directed by Tarsem Singh, who made 2000's The Cell. This has made Disney very angry. Sensing a couple of upstarts treading on their fairy tale turf, they have hired Oscar nominated Toy Story 3 scribe Michael Arndt to pen a Snow White film of their own called Snow and the Seven. This version of the popular tale will take place not in its traditional setting, but in 19th century China. The story will center on an Englishwoman who travels to Hong Kong for her father's funeral only to find that she has become the target of her evil stepmother's scheming. Oscar winning production designer John Myhre has also been brought on to begin to create the look of the film. While Universal and Relativity will theoretically have the chance to get their Snow White projects made and out to theaters first, this new flurry of activity from the Disney camp can only be sending one message: "Get off of my land!"

Adam Lambert's Fans Are Toying With Him
Some musicians' fans flick their lighters to show appreciation. Followers of American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert have a different approach.
Lambert tells E! Online that his ever-growing fanbase has taken to pelting him with sex toys when he takes the stage.
"Somebody threw onstage a red-leather tasseled whip," Lambert says. "Yeah, and then the next night, I got one that was made out of, like, purple fur. It's getting really S&M."
And the whipa are far from the only naughty accessory that's made it onto Lambert's stage.
"I got some glow-in-the-dark handcuffs," Lambert says. "It's really getting creative. It's exciting. I think they really want me to play with these toys during the number."
So far, Lambert has resisted the urge to put the items to use while belting out his tunes.
"I'm not really into S&M, but it's definitely tempting," Lambert notes.
Go for it, Adam! You could bring new meaning to the term "whipping the crowd into a frenzy."
Let us know in the comments section: What sort of sex toy would you throw at Adam Lambert if you went to see him in concert?

Tereza with a nice chance for some more points to end the year with a decent result. In the first round of a 75k in Dubai she faces some 19 y.o. Philippino lucky loser girl who is competing in only her second professional event (chasing her first pro win), and after that the top seeded Cepelova if everything goes according to plan.
Please don't mess this up Tereza. Good luck!

Paul 46 percent, Conway 46 percent.

RealClearPolitics, a CNN/Time blog itself, calls this an outlier
'even by registered voter polls'.
Most pollsters are now polling likely voters, since the election is so close.
Rasmussen and SUSA (the historically most accurate poll for KY) both have Rand up by 15 points, the RCP poll average has him up by 8.8 points.

Currently at the market site there, they show Rand Paul with an 80+% chance of winning.

Here is why the Rassmussen and this poll is skewed.
Both polls break up the state into 4 areas, the west, the east, the bluegrass, and Jefferson county.
Guess which area has the second most populous voting districts ...
Answer ...
None of the above.
Northern KY is the second most populous and it isn't even polled.
And guess what ...
Trey was from this area and Paul beat Trey handily in this district. And it is the only district that has more registered Republicans than Democrats.
The Survey USA poll is much more accurate. The Louisville Courier Journal sponsored this poll. They polled Northern KY. There catagory is North Central, not Bluegrass. (bluegrass only includes Lexington and Frankfort.)
One additional note: Survey USA polled likely voters as opposed to registered voters.
Check out the numbers and see for yourself. Compare the Bluegrass breakdown from this poll to the North Central breakdown from the Survey USA poll. The difference is stagering.

And it's just starting.
Rand Paul may not be the lightning rod his dad is in politics, but the real powers in place also know that it would be a real chink in their armour to allow Rand Paul to take a senate seat. So watch for all kinds of underhanded tactics, including the outright assistance of the media to report on any fictitous garble they're fed from their wonder boys in power. This CNN/Time poll proves their intent.

agreed, he is still a bit new
agreed, he is still a bit new to everything kinda like how Ron was back in the 70s. Luckily there is some balance in such a big race. Ron has years of experience in this kind of fight. Which the fight being Democrats pushing money and support hard for Jack Conway.

Rand had a 6 point lead three
Rand had a 6 point lead three days ago, that just completely vanished in two days? This shit is fixed.

The poll is obviously skewed
Here is the breakdown
First it appears that very few people between 18-34 were surveyed. Rand appears weaker among older people.
Second, it appears that a significant number of people polled come from Jefferson county ( louisville area) where Rand is weak.
If I were Rand, I would be watching for shenanigans in the poor Louisville precincts.

Could be correct. Why am I not surprised?
Rand shouldn't have cozyed up to his Neocon buddies. Now he is seen by many as just another politician.

Could be divine providence.
those that do not suit bob's mind and his personal bias will suffer divine intervention and punishment. you remind me of those christian wackos, seriously. and you are hilarious.. did you even go to the page where a poll showed rand leading by double digit and making a different excuse to address your disappointment? i've never seen someone willing to go so far to embarrass himself to champion a gripe arising out of his own biased view and misunderstandings.
