There's nothing wrong with other locationsSubmitted by Commonsensenotc... on Wed, 05/11/2011 - 5:21pm.
I don't care where you've done it. I'm older and can probably top you in a contest of weird places to have had sex. There is only ONE location we're talking about here - a toilet in a bar. We're not talking about on your girlfriend's clean bathroom counter, we're talking about a typical bar with a typical bathroom and all the typical atmosphere of any bathroom used by lots of drunks. Lemme preach it again, breathren....YUUCCCCKKKKKK!!!!! »

Businesses operating in regional, national, and/or global markets typically divide their operational responsibilities into specific areas or territories. The state or territory manager of general operations oversees the entire regional sales force and manages assignments for sales representatives in the field; they must ensure salespeople are able to operate effectively, work with an optimal number of existing customers, and reach as many potential customers as possible. Territory-level managers also exist in retail settings, where they are tasked with the high-level management of all stores in their districts, ensuring that stores are meeting or exceeding expected sales figures.

The TBG is a volunteer-based organization that relies upon volunteers to help run our many programs and events and to meet our goal of delivering horticultural information and services. We highly value our volunteers and could not run our many quality programs and events without them. Our volunteers take a great deal of pride in their many contributions to our organization. They strongly support our goals and are members of the community that we serve.
All of our volunteer roles involve representing TBG to members of the public, and are for individuals who like meeting people and who have good communication skills. You also need to be comfortable with email and using on line scheduling systems. Roles often involve working with other volunteers, and many rely on specialist skills/experience and/or need a commitment of at least 6 months. Training is provided, tailored to the role. Some volunteers assist in multiple roles and there is a wide variety of roles to assist us, something for everyone! Please read on for more information.

Not to forget all the hours the volunteer committee put into the planning and organizing for this event. All roles were fulfilled with a superb degree of professionalism, energy and good humour!
On behalf of TBG thanks for making a difference!

Volunteer roles with Toronto Botanical Garden
Many of our volunteer roles are unique, the result of finding a volunteer with the particular skills and background to meet a specific need. If you don't see the role you want listed here, it's still worth giving us a call! Our main volunteer roles are listed below; all our roles are accompanied by the appropriate training.
Interested in seasonal hands on gardening?
Volunteering in our beautiful gardens: Volunteers assist the head gardener in the care and maintenance of our beautiful gardens. This is a physically demanding role requiring good physical fitness, including the ability to bend, lift, kneel and function outdoors in all weather conditions! Volunteers are asked to commit to a regular weekly four hour shift (Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday) for the gardening season (April to September, recognizing that vacations/other commitments may require flexing this schedule from time to time). Training and supervision provided.
There is an orientation session on Wednesday, March 25th for all volunteers interested in this role. This is mandatory to attend as it covers practical details of how the role works, together with important safety information. We hope the gardening team is then in place for the gardening season. If there is a need to "top up" members by mid-summer an additional orientation session will be scheduled. Watch for news on this on this website.
Children's Education
Our Children's programs are among our most physically demanding programs: good physical fitness, including the ability to bend, lift and walk up steep slopes is necessary. Volunteers require the ability to relate to children of all ages, as well as having patience, creativity, excellent communications skills and a passion for nature/horticulture. The programs take place both indoors and outdoors throughout the year. Programs run from Mondays to Fridays; many special events take place on the weekend.

This role is typically evenings and weekends and most classes are free for the course assistant in attendance.

There are opportunities to work with groups of seniors as well as visiting school groups with curriculum linked tours on offer for the latter.

Your help will be much appreciated.
Occasional help is also needed with the following:

Volunteer graphic artists, writers, editors, photographers and proofreaders produce our members' magazine, Trellis. We occasionally have positions available to assist this team and if these do arise they will be posted on this website and in our ENews.
In addition to helping TBG the benefits of volunteering for us include special volunteer rates for applicable TBG programs, special volunteer discount at the TBG Garden Shop as well as volunteering in beautiful surroundings!

I don't know what the laws are in every state, but about three weeks ago I talked to an assistant DA that told me that "bounty hunters" have no right or authority above private citizens, 1872 law or otherwise. The ADA said something about some false information about that law being floated around at "bounty hunter trainings or something" some years ago. I can't find anything in our penal code, but if anyone has anything I can read otherwise, lemme know. I've heard all kinds of rumors about this law, but never really seen it. "THEY SAY." Never do anything that only "THEY" say is okay. "THEY" don't get into trouble very often for what THEY tell everybody to do.
That might explain why we seldom deal with them locally. A few bondsmen have shown up with people in tow (cuffed even) that they had dropped bond on at the PD and turned them over to us. Not folks that were resisting or even upset about it. Mostly, they just call us and say, "Hey, there is a guy with a bond forfeiture warrant at 123 Crook Street, I'm watching his car now" and we'll go arrest them if they are there and we can confirm a warrant. In one call I went on, the guy had a copy of a warrant, guess we confirmed first...but, we knocked on the door and nobody answered and we had no reason to enter. The bondsman, bounty hunter, or whatever, said he had the right to kick in the door and go after the guy. We told him kick away, we were going back to the car to clear the call. He fumed, he didn't kick in the door, he left, we left.

Assessing U.S.-China relations
As 2013 draws to a close, where does the complex and consequential relationship between the United States and China stand? Relations between the two nations are enormously broad now, with hundreds of policy issues from agriculture to zoology joining American and Chinese interests. Even when we look to some of the key issues, no convincing pattern emerges.
On the security front, 2013 was decidedly mixed. Washington and Beijing worked side by side when it came to the negotiations over Iran's nuclear program, and China supported the breakthrough six-month interim deal with Tehran. On North Korea, there was less daylight between the U.S. and China than in years past, and in September, China announced a prohibition on exporting to its neighbor a long list of equipment and chemicals that could be used in weapons.

Syria unrest: Hama legal chief 'resigns over killings'
A man claiming to be the top legal official in the central Syrian city of Hama has announced that he has resigned in protest at the crimes against humanity committed by security forces.
In a video statement, Hama governorate attorney-general Adnan Bakkour said he had evidence of more than 70 executions and hundreds of cases of torture.
It is not clear when he was filmed.
Syria's state news agency, Sana, says Mr Bakkour was kidnapped by "terrorist groups" and forced to lie at gunpoint.
It quoted the Hama Police Command as saying the attorney-general, his driver and a bodyguard had been abducted by gunmen in the village of Karnaz on Monday. There have been no other reports about Mr Bakkour since then.
Naming namesIn his statement, which was posted online on Wednesday, Mr Bakkour said he was resigning because of the "al-Assad regime and his gangs".
Mr Bakkour gave the reasons for his decision as:
- The killing of 72 prisoners in Hama's central prison on 31 July 2011, including peaceful protesters and political activists
- The burying of more than 420 victims in mass graves in public parks by security forces personnel and the pro-regime shabiha militia; he said he was told to report that the victims were killed by armed gangs
- The arbitrary arrests of peaceful protesters; he said there were approximately 10,000 prisoners in total
- The torture of prisoners at branches of the security services; he said approximately 320 people had died under torture
- The demolition by the army of homes with people still inside in his district of Hama, al-Hadima
Mr Bakkour said he would make documents supporting his allegations available later, but in the meantime would name "criminals" who he said had massacred unarmed protesters.
They included the local heads of the interior ministry, police, military intelligence, air force intelligence, and the General Security Directorate. He also accused several named officers of torture.
'Dirty game'But the Sana agency quoted an official source who said Mr Bakkour's statements were "lies about completely false practises," and that he had been forced to make them.
Despite rolling protests in Syria over nearly six months, the government has so far remained almost completely united. If the YouTube video is correct then Mr Bakkour would be the most senior official yet to break ranks with the Syrian regime.
In Libya, by contrast, Colonel Gaddafi faced defections from his inner circle at a relatively early stage. His foreign minister and former intelligence chief Moussa Koussa, for example, slipped away to London in March this year.
There was no sign of Mr Bakkour being under duress in the YouTube video but the government's statements about his having been kidnapping are vehement and unequivocal.
It will be impossible to be sure exactly what happened until either he reaches a foreign country or, perhaps, the government releases him from captivity.
The official also said the news about the attorney-general was "another dirty game by al-Jazeera" - referring to the Qatari-owned pan-Arab news channel.
The publication of the video came as troops backed by tanks raided houses in Hama searching for activists behind the protests calling for the overthrow of President Bashar al-Assad, residents said.
On Tuesday, at least seven people were shot dead by security forces as thousands took part in impromptu demonstrations nationwide after prayers marking the end of the Islamic month of Ramadan. Activists said six were killed in the southern governorate of Deraa, including three in the town of al-Harra.
Later, the human rights group, Amnesty International, published details of 88 people it believed had died in police detention. It included videos of corpses with signs of beatings, burns, electric shocks and other abuse.
The UN has said more than 2,200 people have been killed since pro-democracy demonstrations began in mid-March. Syria's government has blamed "armed criminal gangs" for much of the unrest.
Access to Syria has been severely restricted for international journalists and it is rarely possible to verify accounts by witnesses and activists.

Application DetailsI applied through a recruiter. The process took 4+ months – interviewed at IBM in October 2013.
Interview DetailsI first spoke to the recruiters at a job fair and everyone was very helpful. I had to submit my resume online which I did a couple of weeks later. After about two months I was invited by email to interview in Baton Rouge. The interview actually had two parts, a technical interview and then a behavioral interview. The technical interview was about java and object-oriented programming in general. The technical interview was really basic. I had only taken one c++ course and was able to use c++ in the interview. The behavioral interview was just about how I work in teams, what would I do in some situations, and examples of good and bad situations in my life, etc.
Interview Questions- Name the eight data types in Java. Answer Question
- Tell me about a time when you worked on a project in a group and it went well/didn't go well. Answer Question
Negotiation DetailsI thought the offer was way too low and I called the recruiter to ask for more money. She was noticeably ticked off, but said she would talk to "leadership". She contacted me a few days later saying that because of my lack of training in java and the world-class java training I would be getting, they wouldn't give me anything more. This is very ironic because they immediately changed me to a different service line that has nothing to do with java. I applied for a java programming job and was switched to a nontechnical position without any explanation.Accepted OfferNegative ExperienceEasy Interview - Interview Details
They moved quickly. Asked very detailed questions specific to the job position. Not necessarily looking for a good candidate but more focused on the closet match in terms of experience
Interview Questions- Pretty much standard questions Answer Question
No OfferAverage Interview - Application Details
I applied online. The process took 4+ weeks – interviewed at IBM in May 2013.
Interview DetailsAfter submitting my resume, I spoke with an IBM recruiter multiple times. I was given ample time to prepare for the interview, and the recruiter gave me suggestions and a ton of help. The recruiter also called many times to check up and keep me updated. Two half an hour one-on-one interviews. 4 other prospective employees were interviewing with different people at the same time, part of many during the day.
Interview Questions- All expected. Questions about programming topics, education and job experience, and behavioral questions. Polymorphism, inheritance, encapsulation, and other topics were covered, and simple programming tasks we're given (loops, sorts, ...) in your best language. Answer Question
Negotiation DetailsNo negotiation.Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview - Application Details
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at IBM in August 2010.

No OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview - Application Details
I applied through a recruiter. The process took a day – interviewed at IBM in August 2010.
Interview DetailsThere was one interview over the phone with the hiring managers. I was considered for two positions - application development and ETL/DBA. I was hired by the application development manager because the other manager was unavailable for the call. Because of the customer orientation of the position, I believe the interviewer was more interested in my communication skills than my technical skills (which turned out to be a correct method of evaluation - the position is half third-tier help desk and half development with heavy emphasis on client interaction). They made their decision very quickly which was a great relief.
Interview Questions- What reporting tools have you used? Actuate, Brio, Crystal Reports? How much experience have you had in scheduling jobs on Unix? Can you write XML and implement it? View Answer

I applied through an employee referral. The process took a day – interviewed at IBM in June 2010.
Interview DetailsThis is just the first round interview and I have not got any feedback. The interviewer was a HR recruiter. She just ask some general questions and wrote them down, and will send them to technical department and wait for feedback. She will not make any decision. The questions includes visa status, relocation, work experience, expected salary, etc.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at IBM in February 2010.

I applied through college or university. The process took 6+ months – interviewed at IBM in May 2009.
Interview DetailsIt was for an internship position and I only had one phone interview. It was relatively low on technical questions since they were looking for someone soon. They did go through some of my previous work and since I had a decent portfolio for an intern the offer was easy to get.
Interview Questions- I wasn't expecting questions about management and team work since it was a technical job. Questions like how did you work with the team when deadlines were not met or working with someone who was not a good collaborator, etc. View Answers (2)

I upgraded the whole of LFS. The phrase "I upgraded all three packages at once in a single rebuild" could also be read as "I upgraded *only* binutils, gcc, and glibc on an existing system" which in my opinion is never a sensible way forward on an LFS-derived system. For most of us, if our base system (LFS, clfs, paldo, DIY, whatever) has gone past it's "best before" date, it is time to build a new system using either a current development version, or the last stable version. If you are a developer and need to try new versions of gcc you can put them in /opt or /usr/local if you have to (although that only really makes sense if your current system uses gcc-4.3 and you want to test 4.4). If you have a special need to support an old version of gcc, keep an old system just for that. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce

- OR - Select an option belowOy vey! What's with these delis serving ham-and-cheese sandwiches? As they sell out to the treif, it's nice to know Ben's has the backs of its kosher-eating clientele. When you crave a steamy bowl of matzo ball soup, hot pastrami on rye, kasha varnishkas (AKA bowties), stuffed derma (don't ask what that is if you don't already know -- just swallow), knishes, gefilte fish, or a tongue omelet (totally tastes better than it sounds) and a can of Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray, there's only one place to be. If your tummy yearns for something more Eastern European, go for items like the chicken fricassee, the broiled Romanian tenderloin, and the Hungarian goulash served on slippery egg noodles. The restaurant's interiors are reminiscent of a New York deli, minus the sound of honking taxis in the background and servers that sound like Woody Allen. Bring home a hunk of corned beef, pickled on the premises. Oh, and expect a wait on Sunday mornings.

SixWordStories Contest - Five 3-Month PMs to win!UPDATE: The contest ends in a couple of days so get your entries in if you want to participate! Please also make sure your entry is in our folder here!A type of Flash Fiction, six word stories are (very) short stories with an exact word count: six words. SixWordStories is the place where, alongside quality, quantity really does matter. Though these stories are so brief in length, they can be as profound, if not more, than the prose and poetry you see and read every day, partly because six word stories can tell us so much and yet contain so little.As a Group, we encourage writers to explore their boundaries with prompts, collaborations and more, but we accept anyone and everyone too! Whether you are a digital artist, photographer, or something else entirely, if you can string six words together into a story, this is the place to be!It has been a long time since we have had a contest, but we have some

May Mixup Madness BEGINS!*dA has glitched with my journal and sent me back in time * Hey guys! I'm sorry for having been so utterly unreliable of late. I hope you have had a wonderful 2013 and that you're all feeling fired up to try something a bit different. I don't know if many of you remember when I ran a challenge called May Mixup Madness a few years ago but we are repeating it this May because, well, we all need to kickstart those creative engines and create something entirely unique.Ready?Ok.May Mixup Madness follows a similar structure to the cento poetic form in that you choose ONE musician or poet and use lines from various pieces of theirs. You can't use more than one line from each piece so if you're creating an 8 line, 2 stanza poem, you will need 8 different songs or poems to draw from. Once you have your musician/band/poet and your chosen lines, all you have to do is stitch them together to create something new and amazing!Choose it, Fi

Challenge: Journal Skin January (Sign Up)Journal Skin JanuaryJournal Skin January is a challenge brought to you by bradleysays which involves the creation of journal skins.The idea is to create a journal skin or gallery skin for every week in January. You will be given a generous amount of prompts to work with - these will include both words and deviations. This means that participants are required to submit four skins in the month of January to successfully complete this challenge.Why?What prompted this challenge? Probably the lack of activity seen in the journal and gallery skinning community lately. It is a sad fact that most of 2013 was quiet compared to previous years.

Every morning the Tramuntanas, those grizzly grey majestic mountains that sport scrubby stubble at their peak and bushy Aleppo pines below, grin at me from my kitchen window, urging me to explore their treasures. And much as I have been lured by their charms on many occasions when I've set off into the hills for a lengthy hike, I am always mindful of the potential hidden dangers lurking underfoot, in the long grasses and in the streams.
Last week three climbers pitched up near the glassy Cuber Reservoir, high in the Tramuntanas, attempting to abseil from one of the lofty crags to a dried out pool below. Unfortunately the deep basin had become bloated with water from recent rains and the party found itself stranded. Luckily the climbers managed to alert the emergency services by mobile phone after failing to winch themselves out of the water to safety. It was a complicated rescue operation and the trio spent 12 hours in the icy water, proving that even experienced hikers and climbers can be caught out by these mischievous mountains.
Once on a long walk with Majorcan friends – experienced hikers all of them – in Mortitx in the far northwest of the island, we suddenly arrived at a vast, barren plain high above the sea that was bald but for tufts of long dry grass and loose boulders. Our leader told us to stop as he went ahead and alone for some distance slowly examining the ground carefully as if for landmines. When he returned he explained that there were deep fissures and huge sinkholes hidden in the rocks that often had sheer drops into caves below. We were instructed to follow him carefully without deviating until a safe, well trodden path came into view. It was our good fortune that we were in the company of an experienced climber and hiker who knew the mountains as old friends but for holidaymakers it could have been a different story.
Back in 2007, Briton Jacqueline Tennant, a fit 45 year-old holiday rep who was a trained lifeguard and for 20 years a member of the Royal Auxiliary Air force, set off for a walk in the Tramuntanas and never returned. The last sighting of her was believed to be around midday in the vicinity of Ermita de la La Victoria in the north of the island and she was striding ahead seemingly without a care in the world. Despite many an intensive search, Jacqueline has never been found, a stark warning to us all that despite their beauty and grandeur, the Tramuntanas can also be treacherous. In fact annually there are between 50 and 100 rescues carried out by the Guardia Civil's mountain rescue group and each year up to five deaths by misadventure recorded.
It's for this reason that I always advise visitors to Majorca to ensure that they map out their walking routes carefully, follow designated paths where possible and make sure that they leave their itineraries at base with friends or hotel staff. It is wise of course to bring a small rucksack with food and water supplies, hat, sun shades, compass and large scale map, whistle, warm fleece and spare socks. A mobile phone can be helpful when there's a signal but a GPS even better. Even for groups of experienced mountain climbers, it's best to call the emergency services in advance giving exact details of the planned excursion. A walk on the wild side is always a delight but as they say, better safe than sorry.

Cardinal George laments dissent from bishops on abortion and health care
Catholic World News - November 16, 2010
In his final address as president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Cardinal Francis George of Chicago spoke briefly about Pope Benedict's apostolic visit to the United States, the election of President Barack Obama, and the priorities of the bishops' conference before reflecting at greater length on abortion and the health care reform debate and the persecution of Christians in Iraq.
Defending the bishops' opposition to the health care reform bill over the issue of abortion, Cardinal George said:
Our voice was that of the bishops of our country for the past hundred years: in a good society, everyone should be cared for, especially the poor. The goal of basic health care for all continues to be a moral imperative, not yet completely achieved, but it is not now and has not been up to the bishops to decide the means to realize that goal. We have only very cautiously entered into details of public policy, for this is more properly the work of lay people, as it has been in the health care debate. Universal health care can be delivered using many means: everything publicly funded, everything privately funded or a mixture of the two. Any of these solutions could be moral, and it is up to lay people to decide which are the best means to see to it that everyone is cared for.
But once political leaders and health care experts decided to use government subsidized insurance as the vehicle, the means, for providing more universal health care, it was our moral obligation as teachers of the faith to judge whether the means pass moral muster, whether or not the proposed legislation uses public funds to kill those living in their mother's womb. Consistently, and ever more insistently since the sin and crime of abortion was legalized in the United States, our voice has been that of the bishops of the Catholic Church ever since the first Christians condemned the abortion practices of the ancient Romans. The act is immoral; and the laws that have permitted now fifty million children of our country to be killed in their mother's womb are also immoral and unjust; the laws are destroying our society.
"We should not fear political isolation; the Church has often been isolated in politics and in diplomacy," he continued. In a likely reference to the Catholic Health Association and other Catholic supporters of the measure, he added, "We need to be deeply concerned, however, about the wound to the Church's unity that has been inflicted in this debate and I hope, trusting in the good will of all concerned, that means can be found to restore the seamless garment of ecclesial communion."
Cardinal George also called for orthodoxy without self-righteousness:
In 1990, then Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger quoted now Blessed John Henry Newman that, "the whole duty and work of a Christian is made up of these two parts, faith and obedience; 'looking unto Jesus' (Hebrews 2:9) and acting according to his will." Orthodoxy is necessary but not enough; the devil is orthodox. He knows the Catechism better than anybody in this room; but he will not serve, he will not obey. There can be mistakes in our thinking, but there can be no self-righteousness in our will, for this is the sin against the Holy Spirit.

It is more than a little disingenuous to talk as if the bishops did not lobby hard for Obamacare, only to be bamboozled in a most predictable way. They have wanted publicly funded universal care for years; they shouldn't pretend that they left it up to the prudential judgment of the laity and only passed on the morality of what the political process finally chose. The USCCB did everything it could to influence that process.

So why are the priests and religious who cause the scandal of disunity not dealt with by being removed from positions. Frankly this lay Catholic has had enough words from bishops we need decisive action.

I am heartened that Cardinal George spoke of the dis unity of the church in the presence of the bishops. He is right, and the longer the diunity is tolerated, the deeper the schism will run. Faith and Obedience.
