West End reno labour of love
Ex-carpenter refurbishing Furby block for housing
A local carpenter-turned-developer is spending more than three-quarters of a million dollars to refurbish a vacant, century-old apartment block on Furby Street.
Although Chris Welham has more than 20 years of experience in the construction and residential-renovations business, the top-to-bottom refurbishing of the three-storey walk-up at 432 Furby is the first large-scale reno his five-year-old numbered company has tackled on its own.
Welham said in an interview he's enjoying the experience so much he plans to make from-the-ground-up renovation projects his full-time focus.
In fact, he's already negotiating to buy an old warehouse in Wolseley and convert it into apartments. Although that 100,000-square-foot building is nearly 10 times bigger than the one he's working on now, that doesn't seem to worry him. He said he relishes the challenge.
He said the Furby project also has been challenging because of the age of the building, the fact it had been vacant for about three years and because of Furby Street's past reputation as a bit of a rough area.
What gave him the confidence to proceed were some of the big developments the University of Winnipeg has been undertaking in the area, including its $30-million science complex and the McFeetors Hall student residence and university daycare centre.
Both are located within a block of his building.
"Just seeing that they're backing the neighbourhood and believe in it makes a huge difference," Welham said.
The executive director of the West End Business Improvement Zone said it's made a huge difference to the entire West End renewal effort, which has been underway for more than five years. "We're definitely in an upward, positive, revitalization mode, and it's largely because of the university expanding to the west," Gloria Cardwell-Hoeppner said.
"Everywhere you look in the West End there are students. They're living, working and studying here, and are very much a part of the community."
She said new businesses are also moving into the neighbourhood, property values are escalating, run-down houses are being renovated and developers are breathing new life into old apartment buildings like the one on Furby and a three-storey block at 582 Agnes that was converted into affordable condominiums.
Welham's apartment units will be specifically targeted at U of W students. He said he talked to U of W housing officials and they assured him there is a need for more student housing in the area.
Sherri Pchajek, the university's manager of campus living for housing, said in an interview Welham's 15 units will be a welcome addition to the area.
"The vacancy rate is 0.6 per cent, so his units are going to get snapped up quickly."
She said she's also impressed with Welham, whose daughter attends the U of W's high school, and what he's doing with the building.
"He's not doing this on the cheap. I get the sense from talking to him that it's a real labour of love for him. He's very invested, and I love to see developers who are personally involved in what they're doing. They're not just in it to make a buck."
She said the location is also ideal for U of W students because it's close to Portage Avenue and a four-minute walk from the main campus.
Welham said he bought the building from another construction company that bought it a few years ago, started to renovate, and then stopped.
He said the city was threatening to seize the property, so the company sold it to him.
"It was quite a mess when I bought it. But it's a solid building."
He said that's one of the things he loves about Winnipeg.
"There are just tons of these old character buildings just waiting for someone to pick them up and do something with them."
He said his firm has renovated a number of duplexes and other small, multi-family complexes, and more than 20 single-family homes. It also built a 26-unit condominium complex last year in Gimli. He said one of the reasons he's comfortable with taking on bigger renovation projects is because, with more than 15 years' experience as a site manager with his own firm and other construction companies, he can act as his own general contractor.
He estimated that shaved 35 to 40 per cent off the cost of the Furby Street project.

No small undertaking
HERE are some more details about the renovation project at 432 Furby St.:
-- The brick structure was built in 1910.
-- Developer Chris Welham took possession of the building last December and is spending about $850,000 on a top-to-bottom renovation.
-- The work includes gutting the interior down to the bare studs, installing new insulation, electrical wiring, plumbing lines, drywall, flooring and windows. The kitchens and bathrooms are also being redone, the steam-heating system is being replaced with electric baseboard heaters and a new security system will be installed.
-- A new vestibule also will be added to the front of the building and an enclosed fire escape will be built onto the back.
-- Work got underway in January and is to be completed by late summer.
-- The apartments will include one-, two- and three-bedroom units. Monthly rents will be $700 for a one-bedroom, $800 for a two-bedroom, and $900 for a three-bedroom suite.

Citizens Rolls Out Property-Insurance Clearinghouse
A program aimed at shrinking billions of dollars in liability from Florida's state-run insurance company launches Monday, Jan. 27.
Citizens Property Insurance is widely known as Florida's insurance company of last resort. In actuality, it's become a major player in the insurance marketplace. State lawmakers felt that Citizens' $500 billion of risk was too much for Floridians to shoulder. So they've been trying to shift policyholders from Citizens into the private market.
The Property Insurance Clearing House is part of a sweeping reform of Citizens passed by the Florida legislature last year. The computerized system would allow insurance agents to match homeowners with private companies offering the same or better coverage than Citizens.
The roll-out was originally planned for Jan. 1, but was delayed to allow for more testing. A privacy issue was also raised by one particular question in the online questionnaire: "Will you or will you not agree to have a credit report ordered by the participating company?"
"Frankly, we wanted to make absolutely sure that by asking that question, Citizens was not putting itself in a situation where we were creating privacy concerns," says Citizens' CEO Barry Gilway.
Gilway says Citizens waited for approval from Florida's Office of Insurance Regulation before including the question.
In the last 18 months, Citizens has reduced its number of policies from about 1.5 million to less than 1 million.

IMHO all messaging protocols should be done away with and replaced with Jabber.
That way we could have independence from IM companies, move freely, keep all contacts intact, etc etc...
Much like emailing you know...
I think the status quo in IMing is horrible.

Trillian does that now for all protocols. Sadly no WP client I'm aware of, but it works well.
Skype is totally unreliable for text messaging, all it's got is syncing messages between devices and computers.
That's the only thing that's cool in my eyes. Apart from that I actually hate messaging in Skype.

To me the problem with the modern UI app is just that you can't use it in the background. For video maybe its cool but for voice I wouldn't touch it.
The Modern UI app is just ridiculous too. A huge amount of screen estate gone to waste. They just desperately need quality control both back and front ends.

LF a permanent raid spot Currently 2/6 Heroic MV have experience far into fights such as garajal, spirit kings and feng cleared everything else on reg. would prefer a raid group that has atleast cleared 16/16 normal leave info if interested.
We would love to speak with you and see if we are a good fit for one another at Realid: firstname.lastname@example.com
*We are 2/6H and 4/6N
<Livid> (lv25) was formed by 6 members and officers of a US 367 guild late in the cataclysm expansion. We founded <Livid> because we felt as though our old guild was becoming too casual and we were looking to maintain and expand upon our hardcore raiding beliefs. We are proud to have obtained 3 Server-Firsts during MoP Launch and wish to continue pushing raiding progression throughout this expansion.
Weekly Guild Activities: Each week we have an Alt raid on Saturdays at normal raid time. We also have a Rated Battleground group that runs earlier in the day on Saturday. We have several inter-guild 2s, 3s, and 5s teams as well that go at various times. If you are a talented PVPer or enjoy raiding on an alt, we have activities for you! We also do challenge modes on Friday evenings when there is enough interest by guildees.
About us: We offer a mature raiding environment, with officers that have plenty of real life and in game leadership experience. We believe in pushing players to be the best they possibly can be without demoralizing them or putting them down. Min/Maxing is not an option for <Livid> players, but rather a norm. Attendance to raids is mandatory and non-negotiable. We use mumble exclusively because of the small benefit it provides in real world speech lag (it's faster than Ventrilo).
Raid Schedule: Tue/Wed/Thur. Raid Times are: 6:00 Server – 9:00 Server. With invites going out at 5:45 Server (server is on Pacific Time).
Our Raid Times in Other Time Zones:
7-10pm MST
8-11pm CST
9-Midnight EST
Our Server: Velen is a medium population PVE server with slightly more Alliance than horde (60/40). The economy is strong and AH prices are quite reasonable. Velen is in the New York Datacenter.
Loot System: Loot Council with each raider getting a vote on who gets loot. The GMs make final decisions should there be a tie vote.This system has been a drama free loot system thus far.
Expectations of All Raiders: Must have an exceptional understanding of your class and spec. Flawless raid attendance; raiding must be a top priority for you. We expect correct gemming, glyphing, speccing and reforging as well as the proper addons to manage your DPS/HPS/Uptimes, etc. We also require that your main raiding toon have leveled professions that are non- gathering professions. Pre-potting is expected on any boss encounter. Lastly, we require you have a stable internet connection and a computer capable of easily running World of Warcraft. We are an 18+ guild, prefer 25+. We do not allow trolling in trade chat or on the realm forums of any kind.
What we Provide to Raiders: Feasts are Free (You MUST level cooking in your main area pre-5.1 patch drop) Guild Repairs are provided and we provide potions and flasks when we can. We also provide all Enchants and have ALL MOP Enchants unlocked. Extra guild bank funds are used to purchase BOE weapons for raiders. Anything we can do with guild bank funds to improve our raid team is done.
How To Apply:
If you would like to ask any questions or want any more information, please do not hesitate to contact our lead recruitment officer and co-GM, Paticakes, in Game- Real Id: firstname.lastname@example.com or MoP Beta/Diablo Battletag: Paticakes#1823

About Shining Force:
Established in 1998, with roots in gaming dating back even further, SF has made its mark on many games of various genres. Throughout our diverse history, a few defining traits have emerged which have since been held dear to the hearts of our leadership and members. As you'll read on our main splash page, we live by a code of loyalty and honor. However clichéd this may sound, these traits along with our higher than average guild age, have resulted in our always being amongst the small circle of the most respected guilds and clans in each game we play. We established our World of Warcraft chapter early during the beta and have been killing huge dragons and other nefarious creatures ever since. We strive to challenge ourselves as a guild by progressing through the newest tier of raid content. As a result, we are always in search of exceptional players who are looking for not just another WoW guild, but a multi-gaming guild with a rich and expansive history that they can be a part of and contribute to for several years to come.
An Ideal Applicant:
Meets minimum gear requirements for current progression content.
Has the desire to raid consistently and progress through current content.
Understands that attendance and commitment are two key factors to successful progression.
Has a long history of raid experience under his/her belt.
Actively communicates when needed, knowing when to speak and when to not.
Researches and reviews personal performance and works to improve flaws in their game play.
Wants to raid and progress solely for the thrill of progression while understanding that loot is a mere bonus.

90 Pandaren Monk
Blood Sweat & Tiers ( 16/16 Normal, 4/16 HM ) is an established 25 man guild that was built by veteran progression raiders who were unhappy with what they were giving up in terms of guild culture in order to down content. We all believed that a guild could be progressive and STILL maintain a professional, mature teamwork oriented atmosphere. The officers and most of the guild are older, working professionals who want to have a focused raid environment coupled with a rich guild environment, all in a three day raid week.
We succeeded in our short term goals for Cataclysm; we built the guild at the end of Firelands, and ended Dragon Soul with Deathwing killed at 15%, all while improving our roster with an eye towards Mists of Pandaria. Now we are close to meeting our goals for Mists of Pandaria, but we are short a few exceptional players to enable us to raise the bar and push even more progression in our limited schedule. Exceptional raiders looking for a chance at an active role in the shared success of our endeavors are encouraged to apply.
Blood Sweat & Tiers is a guild for experienced raiders committed to downing all content in a Tier while it is relevant, including the Meta Achievement, we are looking people who feel just as strongly that missing those goals is NOT an option.. Blood Sweat and Tiers has all the prerequisites of a stable, long lasting guild:
* A track record of progression
* An energetic, committed, unified and experienced leadership team
* A clearly articulated vision for the guild
* A commitment to recruiting standards to support that vision
* A balanced approach to achieving short term goals without sacrificing the long term
What we are looking for:
* Accountability - we are looking for team players who admit their faults, drop the excuses and perform.
* Experience - we want to know you have the stamina for progression, and min/max to achieve goals
* Dedication - we are looking for 90+ percent attendance raiders.
* Situational Awareness - can you do your job without standing in the < insert flame, slime, etc here
* Reliability - good gaming system, good internet connection, etc
* Focus - Our raid schedule is 3 nights a week, yet we expect to clear all content competitively
* Forum Participation - This where we discuss strats, theory craft loot, and provide our Weekly Battle Plans, and Raid Reviews.
* Teamwork - you will spend a lot of time with this team
In return we offer:
* Adult raiding - Our average raider is over 30, there is no yelling, no berating, but we demand accountability without drama.
* Experience - Officers have experience leading guilds and raids since early BC, and have been playing since release.
* Consumebales - Flasks, feasts, enchants and guild repairs for all raiders in good standing
* Loot - We use Loot Council to distribute loot, and track it using EPGP addons
* Transparency - guild management is open about all guild business, guild membership is in charge of various aspects of guild maintenance.
Our Raid Schedule:
We have avoided Tuesdays due to patch problems, mod updates, etc.
* Thursday, 6:00pm - 9:30pm PST
* Sunday, 6:00pm - 9:30pm PST
* Monday, 6:00pm - 9:30pm PST
All times are server/pacific time, although the server is physically in Chicago for lower pings country wide
Please contact us at http://BloodSweatandTiers.com
You can contact us also via email or RealID at firstname.lastname@example.com
We look forward to meeting you
We would love a ret paladin in our 25m raid group!
We just left old guild to reform for 25s last night and we're looking for more amazing players to polish off the roster. Desiring people who can do the following:
- Follow directions
- Call out things if needed over mumble (means you need a working mic)
- Take less damage than the tanks
- Moves out of wind bombs and cleave and other such ground related badness
- Look up encounters or read the posted forum strats prior to raid time
- Come prepared
- Gem and Enchant all gear to be raid ready.
If you think you meet this criteria, please add me!
Sieara#1968 or Reprisel#1109
We raid T/W/Th 8-11 EST so finding top notch players who can down content in a timely manner is going to be critical. We have a few but we really need more!
90 Blood Elf Paladin
Oops, I didn't see that Obliv had already posted for us. We could certainly use a good plate dps so check us out!
90 Night Elf Hunter
Currently 4/6Heroic MsV 6/6N HoF 4/4N Terrace
Greetings, are you experienced in upper-level content but tired of dealing with long hours of wipes to break content or ridiculous drama over loot or egos? Look no further.
We Know Girls is a tight-knit raiding guild on Arygos. Founded in the early days of MC, we have a long and rich history. For nearly six years we have avoided the typical tribulations common to high-end raiding. Having a good laugh is very important to us. But make no mistake that we are serious about what we do in raids. We are all competitors and strive for the highest level of success.
While we have a small roster, we have many Friends and former Members that still hang out, so guild chat is lively and there is often stuff going on outside of raids. So if you enjoy occasional BGs, some arena, gearing up alts, or running some heroics, we do all of that in abundance.
If you like being around skilled, humorous, intelligent number-crunching players; if you dislike psychopathic leadership, crazy schedules, and unnecessary drama, check us out!
Does We Know Girls interests you? Visit our website: WKG.ARYGOS.US
Post an application! For a private app, PM Messar on our forums.
Looking for:
Any player that does what it takes to come out on top.
Views progression as a competition.
Views 2nd place as unacceptable failure.
Exceptional players are always welcome!
Further highlights:
1. Members are expected to meet 70% of our raid times. We raid four days a week, from Sunday to Wednesday (7-11 PM EST). We take the start time and the end time seriously. Note, however, that initiates may be expected to attend off-hours events like 10 mans/Heroics for evaluation. Also initiates are expected to make 90% of raids.
2. Hybrid DKP/Loot Council system. DKP reset for new tiers.
3. Small core of raiders to maximize usage of loot and consistency in learning and defeating encounters. We do not have a bunch of benchwarmers, and never have.
4. Rather than brute-forcing content, we compensate for our limited raid schedule through meticulous recruitment, planning, and the officers present the strategy for new content fully outlined with roles. If we don't have the comp or numbers we will call the raid, not waste people's time.
5. Individuals are expected to be adept at their own classes Theorycrafting. Do not apply if you do not know the subtle aspects of your class mechanics and gear choices.
Or add
Threats of violence. We take these seriously and will alert the proper authorities.
Posts containing personal information about other players. This includes physical addresses, e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and inappropriate photos and/or videos.
Harassing or discriminatory language. This will not be tolerated.

Oh for God's sake I think you all should put your boxing gloves away, all the guy was doing was making a point about an order. I'm in the same boat, but I'm waiting on an entire aircraft, the difference here is I DO manage to get a hold of someone on the phone, don't get ANY help here, and they keep telling me "next week" since late December. Called last week so I suppose so they wouldn't have to hear from me they told me "two weeks", and the really funny thing about it is it STILL says it will be available "early January 2013", which has LONG since come and gone. Soooo, after the end of this week, I'll call yet again, only to be told "next week", and I'll bet dimes to donuts Nancy here will tell me the same damned thing, and I do believe the trouble here is Banana Hobby Customer Service is NOT on the same page as Shipping/Receiving is, or the latter just enjoys stringing people along. And with all the complaints I do see on the RCGroups Banana Hobby thread, I really am surprised Nancy hasn't quit, or let someone else deal with all the complaints...

Hello pilots.
Matiac is right. Please put the boxing gloves away.

Just to follow up on this thread, I am in the process of trying to sort out a delivery from Banana Hobby that I ordered on Nov14. Apparently they shipped it to themselves? That's right, USPS advised me that it was delivered yesterday to South El Monte Cal. The shipping address I have on the order is Wellesley Is. NY. I have made arrangements and rented a car to pick up this parcel and 2 others tomorrow and now, this one from BH isn't there. I have sent 3 emails and still no response.I can only hope to hear from someone as I have paid for the parts.

Foreign Minister Says Iran Is Open To Talks With U.S.
Originally published on Sun February 3, 2013 5:24 pm
Iran's foreign minister on Sunday welcomed Vice President Joe Biden's comments that the U.S. was willing to hold direct talks with the Islamic republic over its nuclear program.
"We have no red line for bilateral negotiations when it comes to negotiating over a particular subject," Ali Akbar Salehi said at a security conference in Munich, Germany. "If the subject is the nuclear file, yes, we are ready for negotiations but we have to make sure ... that the other side this time comes with authentic intention, with a fair and real intention to resolve the issue."
Biden spoke at the same conference on Saturday, and spelled out the conditions for talks with Iran.
"We have made it clear at the outset that we would be prepared to meet bilaterally with the Iranian leadership, we would not make it a secret that we were doing that, we would let our partners know if that occasion presented itself," Biden said. "That offer stands, but it must be real and tangible and there has to be an agenda that they are prepared to speak to. We are not just prepared to do it for the exercise."
Here's The Associated Press on the state of negotiations involving Iran's nuclear program:
"Meanwhile, talks involving all five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany have made little headway, while several rounds of international sanctions have cut into Iran's oil sales and financial transactions.
"The next round of talks with the six powers will be held Feb. 25 in Kazakhstan, Salehi told the Munich Security Conference."
The West accuses Iran of developing capabilities for a nuclear weapon; Tehran insists its nuclear program is peaceful, non-military uses.

Devils to keep '13 first-rounder, forfeit '14 pick
Apr 29, 2013, 2:32 PM EDT
Hours prior to the first-ever NHL Draft Lottery — in which all participants have a shot at the No. 1 pick — the Devils announced they're keeping their first-rounder.
On Monday, New Jersey GM Lou Lamoriello confirmed the organization will participate in the opening round of 2013 NHL Entry Draft which, of course, will be held in Newark, N.J. on June 30.
That decision means the Devils' 2014 first-round selection will be forfeited, as per a salary cap circumvention penalty for signing Ilya Kovalchuk.
The penalty was announced in Sept. 2010 ($3 million, 2011 third-round pick, future first-rounder) with the understanding it was up to the Devils to decide which year — '11, '12, '13 or '14 — they'd give up the 1st.
The club opted to hold onto its 2011 first-rounder (selecting Adam Larsson) and, curiously, also decided to keep their 2012 first-rounder — the 29th overall pick, with which they took Stefan Matteau.
Why curious? Consider this take from Yahoo!'s Neate Sager:
The franchise, which was stripped of a first-rounder after the NHL ruled it circumvented the salary cap while signing Ilya Kovalchuk, was widely questioned for even using its first-rounder in 2012.
What was the point of hanging on to second-last pick of the first round in a weak draft year, then rushing him to the NHL to perform in spot duty, disrupting a crucial development season?
Taking Matteau also painted the Devils into a corner where they likely going to have to give up their first-rounder in the fecund 2014 draft.
Missing out on a possible shot at an elite youngster such as the Barrie Colts' Aaron Ekblad, Kootenay Ice's Sam Reinhart or Kingston Frontenacs' Roland McKeown is a hefty price to pay to take a player who seems to be struggling with some maturity issues.
The draft lottery will be held tonight (8 p.m. ET, NBCSN), and the Devils hold a 2.7 percent chance of capturing the first overall selection.
Florida (25 percent), Colorado (18.8) and Tampa Bay (14.2) hold the highest odds.

About me30something female whose two great passions are the esoteric and books. Works well together, doesn't it? I work in a university library, am starting to work on my MLS degree, read voraciously, spend too much time on the internet, blog at Livejournal and Wordpress (ask for now, I may link later)
About my libraryI used to work in a bookstore and during the time got hooked on buying books. Now my focus is on reading them and culling things I may never read. I've also become a huge proponent of library use (both where I work and my town's public) and am trying to keep from buying books I don't intend to keep. What will be here are what I own now.

DETROIT (Reuters) - General Motors Co will idle the Michigan assembly plant that makes the Chevrolet Volt for four weeks from the middle of September to the middle of October, plant suppliers and union sources said on Monday.
It will be the second time this year that the plant, which straddles the border of Detroit and the city of Hamtramck, has stopped making Volts.
GM confirmed the plant idling, saying it will continue to "match supply with demand" for both the Volt and the Chevrolet Malibu sedan that is also made at the plant. The automaker declined to specify how long the plant will be closed.
During the shutdown, GM will do some retooling and other work to prepare for production early next year of the 2014 Chevrolet Impala sedan. The plant will begin building preproduction prototypes of the redesigned Impala this fall.
The 2013 Impala is now made at a GM plant in Oshawa, Ontario. Production of the current-model Impala will continue in Ontario through the second quarter of next year, GM said.
The Volt is "doing great" and gaining sales each month and GM officials expect to report strong August sales as well, said GM spokesman Dave Darovitz.
Sales of the plug-in hybrid car are up 272 percent since last year, but are below initial expectations when GM launched the Volt in late 2010, followed by its near-identical version for Europe, the Opel Ampera.
Some 1,200 hourly workers at the Detroit-Hamtramck plant will receive unemployment compensation during the four-week shutdown period, which amounts to about 90 percent of their normal pay, a union source said.
The plant's single 10-hour shift works four days a week. That single shift will be suspended for four weeks beginning September 17, supplier and union sources said.
GM would not say whether the number of workers will rise once Impala production has fully shifted to the Detroit-Hamtramck plant.
The idling of the plant was reported earlier by the Automotive News.

Narrative and the Memory of War
It is a measure of the power of narrative that we publicly grieve more for the deaths of our enemies than those of our allies in a war that is now fading quickly from human memory.
On both the European and Pacific theaters of World War II, Hollywood and the rest of the left have certainly been doing their part in recent years. Regarding the former, recall the 2008 movie The Reader, staring Kate Winslet, Lena Olin, Ralph Fiennes, and Bruno Ganz. The film begins with metaphors of illiteracy and seduction of youth. It concludes in the late-1980s (Spoiler alert!) by contrasting Olin as a glamorous and wealthy Holocaust survivor comfortably ensconced on Park Avenue, versus a heavily made-up Winslet portraying her now elderly concentration camp guard now herself dying in squalor in a German prison. The Reader was a textbook lesson in moral equivalence and tacit apologies for Germany's actions in World War II.
Meanwhile, at the Huffington Post, Greg Mitchell, the longtime editor of the legacy media house organ Editor & Publisher writes, "I happen to believe the [atom] bombs should not have been used against Japan:"
While I respect the views of a range of historians on this matter, and the opinions of the men who fought in the Pacific, I happen to believe the bombs should not have been used against Japan — directly over massive cities — at that time. The war would likely have ended very shortly without it (or a bloody American invasion planned for months later), largely because of the Soviets finally declaring war on Japan — an event long-dreaded by Japanese leaders.
Yes, there was a day when conservatives like John Foster Dulles, columnist David Lawrence, Admiral William Leahy and General Dwight D. Eisenhower — "We shouldn't have hit them with that awful thing," Ike declared — clearly condemned the use of the bombs. They knew that the argument of "saving tens of thousands of American lives" only counted if an invasion actually was necessary. We had demanded "unconditional surrender," dropped the bombs — then accepted the main Japanese demand, keeping their emperor as figurehead.
But the key point for today is this: How the "Hiroshima narrative" has been handed down to generations of Americans — and overwhelmingly endorsed by officials and the media, even if many historians disagree — matters greatly. (And see my piece this week on Truman editing the first Hollywood movie on the bombing, and an earlier piece on the extremely significant suppression of footage shot in Hiroshima by U.S. military film crews.)
Over and over, top policymakers and commentators say, "We must never use nuclear weapons," yet they endorse the two times the weapons have been used against cities in a first strike. To make any exceptions, even in the past — and in certainly a horrid situation — means exceptions can be made in the future. Indeed, we have already made two exceptions, with more than 200,000 civilians killed. The line against using nuclear weapons has been drawn… in the sand.
A medium that can be brushed away and remolded almost as easily as news, opinion, and history itself.
Speaking of which, "Recognize this Photo? Well, Some Professional Journalists Don't."

Neville backs Ferguson for another decade at United
Friday 03 November 2006
Sir Alex Ferguson has not considered retirement once since changing his mind on his decision to leave Old Trafford in 2002, and even on the cusp of his 20th anniversary as Manchester United manager his focus remains fixed on the future - as Gary Neville has emphasised by claiming the 64-year-old may remain in his post for the next decade.
With a prediction that will enthral his followers and appal his detractors in equal measure, the United captain insisted Ferguson is intent on bringing his latest exciting team to fruition in both the Premiership and Champions' League and, with eight League titles, five FA Cups and a European Cup on his CV, had earned the right to depart on a date and in a manner of his choosing.
"Why should he leave? He feels as determined as ever," said Neville. "It is a continual challenge to be at this club and that will keep him young. He knows how to make the club successful. We have been developing a new side with a lot of young players and, hopefully, this season we can bear the fruits of that. It would not surprise me if he went on for another five to 10 years. It would be great to get to the end of my career under one manager."
As a first-team regular for 14 years and a lifelong United supporter, Neville is well-placed to assess the impact Ferguson has had on Old Trafford since his arrival and, while he unsurprisingly cites the treble of 1999 as the Scot's greatest achievement - "Probably the greatest by any club in English football," he claimed - the 31-year-old credits the manager's ruthlessness with transforming the nature and image of the club.
"When he first came here, Norman Whiteside and Paul McGrath were heroes to Manchester United fans but they left soon after he arrived. He changed the culture of the club," said Neville. "There is no sentiment and that has ensured his continued success. He almost sees the end for players before they see it themselves and 100 per cent of the time he has been proved correct.
"What Alex Ferguson did was to take the club to a level it should be at, winning championships and FA Cups and being involved in the European Cup. He will tell you himself that this is the minimum of what this club should achieve. It is disgraceful to think that this club did not win the League for 26 years. It is an embarrassment with the resources available."
Despite their lengthy relationship, Neville admits he is not close to the United manager. Nevertheless, he knows a different side to Ferguson from his gruff public image.
He said: "Certainly as a young player, you are wary of him and when he walks in the room everybody does go a bit quiet. There is an aura about him. But when you have been at United for 14 years, you do recognise the personal side to him. I wouldn't say I am close to him but I know I can go into his office and see him.
"If you are in trouble, that is the door you knock on. You might have something in your personal life and he will listen. That's where he wins respect. People looking in might think he has got performances out of his players through fear but it's more than that. He has been a father figure to his players."

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
LAWRENCEVILLE - A long-awaited project to create an interchange on Ga. Highway 316 at the entrance to Georgia Gwinnett College is back before the public in a meeting tonight.The project, which would upgrade traffic signal intersections at Collins Hill Road and Ga. Highway 20 to interchanges, was scaled down last year in an attempt to bring it closer to construction. Officials now consider an extension of high-occupancy vehicle lanes along Ga. 316 as a separate project, which has caused the Georgia Department of Transportation to come back before the public for comments. "The whole idea in pulling these apart is to get the interchange built first because of growth in the area and the college," which did not exist when the project first arose, said DOT spokeswoman Teri Pope. "It's a much more efficient way of moving traffic." The upgrade will also improve safety, acting similar to the recent grade separation project for the intersection of Pleasant Hill Road and Buford Highway, Pope said. "The Collins Hill interchange upgrade is a critical project for Georgia Gwinnett College," college Vice President Gordon A. Harrison said in a statement. "With enrollment rapidly climbing, we need to move cars on and off campus as efficiently as possible. The design as presented by the Department of Transportation will help us meet the future needs of the college. We appreciate the visionary approach to resolving complex transportation issues in the area." The original project was expected to cost $240 million, but Pope did not have information on the price of the scaled-down version. Residents can give their input on the project at today's meeting, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the college, or through the DOT's Web site www.dot.ga.gov. To see project information and displays, click on public outreach and choose Gwinnett County. While officials have already begun to purchase land for the project, Pope said the construction period has not been determined. Because of a multi-billion-dollar budget shortfall, officials are currently working on a cost-benefit analysis of every DOT project. Pope said the project prioritization list, which will determine the time frame, may be complete by the end of the year. SideBar: If you go What: Public information meeting on Ga. Highway 316 upgrades at Collins Hill Road and Ga. Highway 20 When: 5 to 7 p.m. today Where: Georgia Gwinnett College, Building B atrium

Rockford teachers' union files intent to strike notice
Staff Report
The Rockford Education Association (REA) filed its official notice of intent to strike with the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board March 12. The move paves the way for a legal strike to occur at any time after a 10-day waiting period. No strike date has been announced.
Karen Bieschke, REA's president, said in a release: "We are very disappointed and frustrated at having to take this step. But we're being forced into this by a school board that simply will not compromise or try to reach a fair agreement. The board is entrenched in unreasonable positions. It has voted to impose its last offer on teachers on April 1. At some point, we have to say 'stop.'"
The REA contends it has already offered many proposals in negotiations designed to protect educational programs for students, save money for the school district and avert a strike.
"Our goal has not changed," Bieschke said. "We want a reasonable agreement that rightly protects the quality of education in Rockford and is fair to all stakeholders, including teachers. Teachers in Rockford have been the only stability in the school district for many years, and despite the current contract disagreements, we've continued to devote our full efforts to teaching the children without distraction. But we can't accept the board's offer of a contract that unfairly punishes teachers, costs teachers thousands of dollars out of their paychecks, and jeopardizes health care for them and their families. That's just not fair."
Negotiations with the school district began last April and have been conducted with the assistance of a federal mediator over the last seven months. A bargaining meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, March 21.
