Product Description
Kenmore Pro 30" Dual Fuel Range - Cooking Versatility
The Kenmore Pro dual fuel range combines a gas-powered cooktop with an electric convection oven for the versatility of a professional kitchen in the comfort of your own home. The 30" dual fuel range cooktop features a beautiful corrosion-resistant finish and stylish heavy-duty control knobs, while the oven's true convection uses a fan and hidden third heating element for evenly baked and browned foods, and succulent roasts with sealed-in juices. Heavy-duty ladder racks with handles easily adjust to 13 positions to produce precise baking results, and they're designed for quick removal and easy cleanup, making even challenging meals effortless.
*This dual fuel range requires both a 220/240v cord to power the electric oven and a gas line for the cooktop*
- True Convection combines a powerful fan with a hidden heating element to spread heat evenly, helping bake, brown and crisp everything from turkeys and roasts to brownies and pies.
- By combining the instant heat of gas burners with the cooking accuracy of an electric oven, Dual Fuel ovens deliver added flexibility for frying, searing and baking to perfection.
- Heavy-duty ladder racks move to a combination of more than a dozen heights to make space for roasts and pans of nearly any size.
- Heavy duty cast metal knobs offer precise control while bringing the look and feel of designer quality to your kitchen.

I have had this range for 4 years and have already had two major repairs. The motherboard had to be replaced the first time and now less than a year later it needs another expensive repair. It's a lemon!
via sears.com
Owned this range since 2010. Liked the performance overall. Great power from the burners and used the griddle feature often. However, the oven took a full 25 minutes to heat to 350 which was frustrating at times and the biggest problem is that the whole unit would shut down when I used the self cleaning feature. It did clean, however - it would trip the system and the whole thing needed to be pulled out in order to press the reset button. Other than that I loved the look and performance of oven and stove.

I have owned this range for two years. It looks fantastic and has all the right features. I bought it at Sears Outlet and got a great price too. The issue I have is with it's quality. When I used the self-cleaning oven, it blew a fuse, which required removing the back of the stove to reset... Next, the knobs are very cheap plastic. They deform/melt when cleaning the oven and/or using the broiler and they also break off very easily. I hope you have a better experience.

Kenmore thought of everything when designing this Pro Dual Fuel range. First of all, it is attractive and looks as good as any Wolf or Viking out there. Secondly, it has all the BTU's you could want in a cook top for the gourmets out there, including the bridge on left that allows you to put a large roasting pan across it as I did on Christmas to make the gravy. It heats up the whole pan, middle included. The bridge comes with a griddle for pancakes, grilled cheese, etc., and a grill top that fits over it to do steaks when it's too cold to grill outside. Plus, you can use the bridge side as regular burners, too, if you don't need the middle burner lit. The oven is amazing, too. It not only has a bake, broil and warm feature, it has convection bake and convection roast. I roasted a 16.6 lb. turkey on Christmas 2 1/2 hrs. using the convection roast and it was the most tender, moist turkey we've ever had! It has very precise oven temperature settings. It moves like a dial to the exact temp you desire. Last but not least, it cleans up easily, too, and unlike a lot of other high end professional style ranges, it has the self- cleaning feature. BTW: I didn't notice that the fan was that loud. It does go off after your heat rises to the selected setting. A couple of things to be aware of that we learned after purchasing: we needed to upgrade our electrical since we didn't have the proper amperage from the low end cook top we replaced but the gas line was there. Since we were replacing a cook top with a range, we needed a professional installer to remove the cook top and the cabinet below. At the end of the day, it was worth every penny to purchase and have installed. Watch for sales on this item at Sears. We did and then it went down again in price and Sears made the adjustment. Also, it is a little frustrating because Sears doesn't have it in their showroom to see ahead of time. We did see the look of it (awesome big dials) from their Kenmore Pro oven but we had to buy sight unseen; however, Consumer Review gives it high marks. That was enough for us along with all the features we were looking for: dual fuel, professional style/look, convection baking, high BTU's, self-cleaning, etc.

Out of the box missing propane conversion kit was supposed to be included. Now I have to wait another week for kit. Turned on oven to bake a pizza a noisy fan came on and never shut off.... Turned off the oven 30 minutes ago and the fan is still running. I guess I will need a service man!!!

A pair of modified coelenterazines has been created that enables convenient, sensitive real-time measurement of Renilla luciferase in living cells. One modified substrate generates very stable luminescence, allowing for the monitoring of dynamic cellular events in situ. The other substrate generates very intense luminescence in cells expressing Renilla luciferase, up to 3 or 4 times brighter than unmodified coelenterazine, and more than 10 times brighter than firefly luciferase with luciferin. These new modified coelenterazines were used to monitor Renilla luciferase activity in a CRE-responsive reporter-gene system, an RNAi-control system, and a BRET system (Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer). For each system, conclusions derived from experiments using the new modified coelenterazines were consistent with those from the standard assay for that system, and the data was easier to generate because of the simple add-and-read procedure.

Ongoing protests in Yemen
Online reports of the violence in Yemen. British web users inspired by the Royal Wedding. And a photographer has filmed the germination of an acorn over an eight month period.
Ongoing protests in Yemen
Yemen's opposition warned the government on Thursday that violence against street protesters could derail a draft deal on political transition. According to the cyber activists who uploaded these images onto Facebook to denounce the repression, dozens of people were killed and many others wounded in violence on Wednesday.
These bloody clashes came at the end of a day of nationwide protests. This amateur video appears to have been filmed in Taiz in the south of the country, where tens of thousands of people took part in protests against the resignation deal, outlined by the Gulf Cooperation Council, which would grant the President and his family immunity from prosecution.
This sequence appears to have been shot in the capital Sanaa. According to the person who filmed these pictures, we see snipers, positioned on roofs, fire live ammunition at the crowd to disperse the protesters.
This other video is thought to show the violent clashes which broke out between protesters and supporters of the regime.
The opposition is accusing the government of paying supporters to attack protesters. This video, which is currently circulating on the Internet, is thought to show the respective camps during their lunch breaks. The first part of the video clip appears to show the distribution of small portions of food to protesters, and in the second part of the film we see what appears to be much heartier meals served in a camp set up by the government.
Web users inspired by British royal wedding
The big day has arrived for Prince William and Kate Middleton, the British Royal Wedding takes place in London today. The event has sparked great interest worldwide and also appears to have inspired web users. As the ceremony approaches, tributes and parodies are pouring onto sharing sites.
This British woman has written some poetry for the royal couple which she is reciting in this video. In this entertaining poem she wishes them a successful marriage and all the happiness in the world.
The Legoland theme park in Windsor is celebrating the royal wedding in an original fashion by recreating the ceremony in Lego. It's an impressive model and nothing or no-one has been left out, not even the queen and her colourful dress…
But William and Kate's wedding is also a source of inspiration for online comedians; numerous animations and satirical songs have emerged online. Here the words to the famous Grease track have been changed… and in this revised version of a Lady Gaga hit, a group of men are pleading with Kate to marry them instead of William.
And finally, this web user has imagined the Queen's intense training sessions as she practices her dance moves in the run up to the ceremony. This wacky video is no doubt inspired by a telephone operator's viral marketing campaign, which has enjoyed huge online success in recent weeks.
Storify, new tool for web journalists
« Make stories using social media », this is the slogan adopted by "Storify" which was officially launched on the 25th of April and aims to help web users and online journalists sort through information found on Twitter, Flickr and also YouTube and use it in articles. The site appears to have understood that social networks have become a veritable source of information that help us understand current affairs from different angles.
Fundraising website lets web users create custom art mashups
The British 'Richard House Children's Hospice' supports families with children suffering from a terminal illness and has come up with an original way of raising money, by teaming up with marketing agency 'The Partners' to launch a site on which web users can create and then buy custom art 'mashups' generated from works of 120 artists. 64 000 combinations are possible, providing a whole host of ways of supporting this charity.
Video of the day
Neil Bromhall, a British photographer and nature lover undertook the massive project of filming the germination of an acorn over an eight month period. Web users can see the results in this educational video, made using the time-lapse technique.

Rich, Eggy, Sweet: Easter Breads Around the World
Recipe Roundup
Rich with tradition, symbolism, and treasured ingredients, Easter breads figure prominently in many cultures' celebrations. From Russia to Spain, these yeast-risen breads are often laden with ingredients like eggs, butter, sugar, fruits, nuts, and spices – rewards following the period of Lent leading up to Easter Sunday. We had only intended to round up a few recipes but were so struck by the beauty and deep tradition of these breads that we had to share this gorgeous gallery of 15…
Will you be enjoying any of these breads for Easter (or just for fun)? Or perhaps one we haven't shown here? Please share your own traditions and recipes with us in the comments!
• 1 Armenian choereg – A braided loaf flavored with mahlab (a spice derived from sour cherry seeds) and sprinkled with sesame seeds.
• 2 British hot cross buns – Spiced buns filled with currants or raisins and marked with a cross made by slicing the top or adding dough or icing. Some believe the buns predate Christianity and were served at pagan spring festivals.
• 3 Bulgarian kozunak – An eggy bread flavored with raisins, nuts, and lemon zest. May also be braided, shaped into a round loaf, and studded with eggs.
• 4 Croatian sirnica – A sweet bread perfumed with rosewater and citrus zest.
• 5 Czech Houska – A braided, eggy loaf featuring raisins, nuts, and citrus zest.
• 6 Dutch paasbrood – A sweet bread packed with sweet almond paste, raisins, and candied citrus.
• 7 Greek tsoureki – A sweet, braided bread often flavored with mahlab (a spice derived from sour cherry seeds), anise seeds, mastic, or citrus peel. Red colored eggs represent Christ's blood and rebirth.
• 8 Italian pane di pasqua – One of many Italian Easter breads, this one is braided with an egg nestled in the center.
• 9 Italian gubana – From the Friuli region, a dense bread with a filling of nuts, raisins, chocolate, and grappa.
• 10 Lithuanian velykos pyragas – A sweet loaf dotted with raisins.
• 11 Portuguese folar de páscoa – A sweet or savory bread often decorated with eggs.
• 12 Russian kulich – A cylindrical, iced sweet bread often flavored with saffron, cardamom, raisins, candied citrus, and nuts and served with pascha cheese.
• 13 Slovenian velikonocni kruhki – Sweet buns flavored with cardamom, citrus zest, raisins, and nuts.
• 14 Spanish hornazo – A savory bread stuffed with egg and sausage.
• 15 Ukrainian babka – Flavored with raisins and baked in a coffee can, this sweet bread was made by Kitchn reader Karlynn Johnston (thanks for sharing!).

June 20 may be the most bittersweet day of the year for gardeners. It's the summer solstice, and while it's the longest day of sunlight for gardening, it also means those precious hours are about to get fewer and fewer. But with green ways to light the garden, you can stay up gardening (or partying) with the moon.

The 10-inch-round, weather-resistant Soji Originals lantern has a solar panel on top that powers two small LED lights inside, creating an ambient glow. Hang it from a tree or use the included base to set it in the garden. Available in seven colors.

I bought this fryer and was getting ready to use it for the first tine and it shorted out a whole electrical line. We couldn't fix the problem by flipping the circuit board. We have to call our landlord to get the problem fixed. I was stupid and threw the box away, so my only recourse is to ask a friend who is knowledgable about electronic devises and hope he can work it out.

The outlet could have caught fire when something internally shorted out in the fryer. I bought this one after the one I had fo3 3 years had shorted out too. I sure hope I can return this thing or at least use warranty.
Johnson City, TN
I got this as a gift from my husband. He bought it because of the Kenmore name. I have never been so disappointed in a product in my life! I only used it a few times and each time I did it took forever to fry something because it kept shutting off. It shut off when I tried to set the temp. or the timer, it shut off if the cord just barely got touched. I thought the reason that the fryer kept shutting off was because the breakaway cord was ultra sensitive; however, that is not the case. There must be a flaw in the design because after only a few uses it stopped working all together. I tried to return it but even though this fryer has a 2 year warranty they refused to take it back. They did offer to trade it for another fryer, BUT, they wanted me to take one that was much smaller, and well less than half the price. Please whatever you do, do not buy this fryer it is not worth the money or the trouble.

I should have listened to the reviews! The reviews stated the power cord does not stay plugged into the unit. This is true. The cord does not stay plugged in. I threw this unit away after 5 months of use. It was a waste of money! I wound up buying a conventional round deep fryer and it works great!

This product is awesome regardless of what some of these other reviews say! My husband and I use this all the time and have had Zero problems!Its the best fryer that i have ever used!

When I first got this unit it quit after only 1 use and would not heat any more. Being an electronics engineer I took it apart and found the design mistake and corrected it. After that I have used it for the last several years with no problem. Unless you are an Electronics engineer stay away from this one.

Works great, so far I did onion rings, french fries, & I fried 2 pork chops in there, and they fry perfect with the timer, nothing gets over fried, comes out nice and crispy...

This was bought for me as a gift. While I really love the idea and the gift part, the fryer is cheaply made and feels like junk. I am so disappointed with Kenmore and Sears products anymore, everything we buy from them is junk. The lid does not fit properly, you have to hit a button that says "cancel" to start the timer!! How stupid it that! It says CANCEL, but that is the button you hit to start it. The filter the have in there is a complete joke, it wont stop any odor's at all, the plug to the back of it is VERY short, and it is magnetic and is a pain to use. The dual basket is a joke, I don't see any reason anyone would use the smaller one, ever. So I consider it a single basket. Clean up is not so bad, but removing the oil and filtering it and storing it is a pain, but that is not the Fryer's fault, but it would be very nice if they had a filter system like some other fryer's for the oil, especially in this model's price range! Sear's and Kenmore used to make good product's.
Great Barrington, MA
via kmart.com
The controls are bad, the basket doesn't have a way of locking above the oil like most other fryers, the lid doesn't fit properly and it started falling apart after a week. Do yourself a favor and avoid this clunker.

Job Stories and Tales
Read stories from the job front shared by your fellow working world folks.
employee # 26[Name removed] has got to be hands down the most inane waste of sperm this earth has ever encountered. he is an easy to anger, frustratingly ignorant, absurdly arrogant, lies through his freaking teeth, idea stealing son of a bitch. comfurtcompany is the worst company to work for and hands down the most backwards thinking place of employment that I have ever had the misfortune of working for. I hope it goes belly up if only for the very reason to save other poor souls from ever having the misery of employment there. Add a ReplyLink:
stop complaining to MEAs a female employee, this is going to sound sexist but I just don't care. I hate working for women. Women. All women. I work for a department full of women. It's hormonal and it drives me insane. Estrogen battles are constant in this office. She did this, they did that, blah blah blah blah. Shut the hell up and just do your job.
You don't like the program we're using? Well, unless you can find a better software at the contracted price we have, I suggest you suck it up and LEARN THE SYSTEM. Not just half-ass learn it, but learn it inside out like the back of your hand. When you get frustrated about it not doing this, or that, or blah blah blah, your whining and complaining doesn't do except adding to the mounting personnel problems we have here. I'm just the work minion okay? SO WHY THE AM I DOING ALL OF YOUR WORK THAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING. Don't ask me to do MINUTE things that YOU have access to. Plus YOU'RE NOT MY BOSS. Oh, and you need to stop writing emotionally charged emails to everyone because no one APPRECIATES THAT CRAP.
You want to come to work impaired? That's fine, but if you keep coming to work all MESSED up, someone's bound to notice. WAIT A MINUTE. TOO LATE. Sauce it up AFTER you leave work, there's plenty of time for you to get wasted when you get home.

Posted by haterlover on 08/03/2013:
StuckHey Y'all.... It's me again. I know it's been awhile.
I've been at my contractor office job for about three and a half years now. Granted, I'm treated reasonably, fairly compensated, and not harassed. You'd think it would be a virtual paradise, right? Nope.
See, I'm also an art student. I'm a thirty-something that didn't understand her talents until one day somebody suggested doing art for video games. I've been on a mission to do that ever since. So, I'm a little older than my classmates, and my resources are limited because I'm married and have a mortgage to pay.
Art is my existence. It is my BEING. I can't go long days of drudgery without doing it and progressing in some way. I've been an Admin assistant or in a similar position for probably 10+ years. I'm tired. I'm tired of doing this. Day in and day out. It's frustrating. I feel like I die a little every day because instead of doing art, I'm banging on my calculator and keyboard all day, pretending to be nice to people that walk into the office, and all that other general office stuff. I feel like a damned ornament sitting there up front. I feel like I'm not fulfilling my real value being there. Problem is, I'm stuck. I can't leave. It's a guaranteed paycheck. It helps me pay for school. I'm too comfortable, though. And my husband has come to rely on my steady income (as well as the benefits), as his has peaks and valleys season to season. He's a personal trainer with a steady client base, but even those die-hards sometimes have to take short breaks.
You'd think that in this economy I'd be grateful to have a job at all. I am, but I'm also miserable. It's hard to be grateful for misery. :P
Also, last year my boss quit and took another job, and her replacement is almost worse than she is. She's an absolute nutcase and she makes it really hard for me to be at work sometimes. I'll have to tell you guys stories about her later...
I did apply to an admin position at a nearby gaming company some weeks ago, but I haven't heard from them and there aren't many game companies around here. Moving isn't an option, so I have to be careful not to turn any of them off of me.
Also, all my teachers want me to apply to this super-awesome super-duper-expensive nearby art school and I'm not sure how I'll be able to afford it without already going into massive debt. I've already got a mortgage. I don't need more financial obligations.
To boot, the kinds of art jobs I wish to do don't necessarily require a degree, really, so to me going to an expensive school (which I would honestly LOVE to do), is sort of pointless. A positive AND a negative.
I have so many things weighing on me and it's making me crazy and depressed. I'm awful to be around as of late and it's making me feel like isolating myself and then hating myself for it, and then feeling sorry for myself because I'm lonely and depressed.
I feel like I'm strung up in a web of things I wasn't entirely on board with, and now I have to suffer so others don't have to. I feel like I'm dying. I don't like that feeling, and I don't like entertaining thoughts about driving my car off a bridge.
I don't belong at my job. I just don't belong there. I don't fit in with the general culture (I'm weird to them), I can't relate to anybody there, and when I try to join in on their sports conversations (one of the very few points I can relate on) they all run away or change the subject. I know they don't hate me, but I get the impression they're weirded out by my wanting to discuss sports with them, and that really bothers me.
I just want to get out. Somebody please just shoot me.

CulturalI was hired for my years of experience in Human Resources...for a foreign based (start up)company.
Get this...final benefits for this company who hope to attract and retain skilled workers.
10 days vacation for first five years of employment no rollover from year to year.
no sick time at all
no bereavement at all
no jury duty recompense at all, in fact this should be addressed after hours....LOL. Tell that to the federal government.
you must call in and ASK permission to stay home if you are sick regardless of illness or contagious factor.
you must pay for all company travel and business expenses
When recruiting the applicant must be willing to start the next day without notice given to your previous employer. however they are trying to enforce a necessary two week notice when you leave their employment other wise they instruct me not to pay out their vaction or final pay for hours worked.
When I explained legalities involved I was told "we worry about it if we get caught"
Needles to say...I am looking.....and on my way out...I am calling IRS...EEO...OSHA and Immigration, they have people working on visiting visas...

Calling On the Governor
WorldPeace wages telemarketing terror in his quest for office
AAA Comments (0) By Mark Donald Thursday, Jan 3 2002
You've come home from work -- late as usual. Dinner is done; your wife is frustrated; the kids are out of control. It's time to get them to bed, but they haven't even been fed. The phone rings and you pick up, hoping for a pause in the disaster. Although the prospect of a pushy telemarketer seems oddly quieting, what you hear instead is downright disturbing.
The caller identifies himself as John WorldPeace, and you're thinking Hell, another charity solicitation. Then the voice says he is running for governor of Texas as a Democrat. You try to interrupt but realize it's an automated message. You start to hang up, but don't, drawn in by his Texas twang and the venom he suddenly spews.
"The Texas Democratic Party is in peril because 60 members of its executive committee have endorsed 'Don' Tony Sanchez as its gubernatorial candidate four months before the primary. This is the same Don Sanchez who laundered $25 million in drug money through his Tesoro Savings and Loan and then cost the taxpayers $139 million to clean up the mess after he sent Tesoro into bankruptcy." Talk about defamatory. "This is the same drug-using, Mafia-friendly, Vietnam-era draft dodger and Republican turncoat Tony Sanchez who gave Bush $350,000." Talk about your quick kill. "It is time to cut the Sanchez cancer from the Democratic Executive Committee…It is time to send the likes of Don Tony Sanchez to jail, not to the governor's office…God save the Democratic Party in Texas. Vote for WorldPeace."
Yeah, more like WorldWar.
You have just had your first exposure to the scorched-earth gubernatorial campaign of John WorldPeace, father of four, trial lawyer, spiritual seeker. Although the Sanchez campaign brands John WorldPeace "a crackpot" and his messages "fraudulent, misleading and complete lies," it should not mistake the man's resolve. But how can a candidate with no money, no name recognition, no party backing and no political experience have a chance of winning a contested statewide primary? Houstonian John WorldPeace is banking on two tactics that seem oddly incompatible: autodialed messages intended to savage his opposition and a funky name intended to convince voters to visualize WorldPeace -- at least for governor.
Texas politics has certainly had its anomalies, those unorthodox few who have defied the odds and become serious candidates. There was convicted perjurer Don Yarbrough, who claimed that God told him to run and who became a Texas Supreme Court justice because voters confused him with famed Senator Ralph Yarborough. There was unpopular Dallas Judge Charlie Ben Howell, who had a habit of suing his opponents and whose perennial candidacy finally numbed voters into electing him into office. And in more recent times, there was Victor Morales, the everyman candidate for U.S. Senate who captured the Democratic nomination by running a no-frills campaign out of his pickup truck.
Enter John WorldPeace (the lawyer formerly known as Kenneth Edward Wolter), whose name smacks of a publicity stunt but was legally changed 14 years ago, he says, after much spiritual soul-searching. "I determined that if I changed my name to WorldPeace, that when people said or read or heard my name, they would have to think about world peace for just a second, and that would increase peace on the planet."
World peace, however, is the last thing WorldPeace thinks about when he enters the courtroom. "I am extremely tenacious and aggressive and irritating," he says. "I am not a pacifist. I am willing to get down in the dirt and fight."
He did some legal work for Houston businessman Dan Kerr, who owns OneNet, one of the largest automated phone dialers in the country. Kerr has done "political dialing" for many successful candidates -- Kay Bailey Hutchison, Phil Gramm, Jeb Bush -- but mostly during "get out the vote" drives in the waning days of a campaign. Never had a campaign been run solely on autodialing until Kerr persuaded WorldPeace to run for governor.
"I told him, 'With a name like WorldPeace, people are not going to forget you,' " Kerr says. "I suggested the governor's race because Texans like to elect ordinary people -- not career politicians -- as their governor." And this political season would be anything but usual. "George Bush moved to Washington and took all the heavy hitters with him. And the Democrats have been in shambles for ten years."
With Kerr as his campaign manager, WorldPeace signed off on an unconventional race, one that would rely extensively on Kerr's sophisticated autodialing technology. "All political consultants believe that the only way to get elected statewide is to build your name ID by spending millions on radio and TV buys," Kerr says. "But I can call the entire state of Texas" -- five to seven million phones -- "every two weeks to get our message out."
Approximately half the prerecorded calls are answered by machine, and a high percentage of those answered in person result in hang-ups. "Even if they do hang up, the message is structured so they first hear my name and what I am running for," WorldPeace says. Since announcing his candidacy on his Web site in January, he has made 15 million "connects" with Texas households, incorporating nearly 30 blistering messages, which can be immediately changed to respond to the shifting political scene.
"Our strategy was to get his name out there," Kerr says. "And to take out any competitors in the primary by disabling them so heavily they become a walking shell."
Aside from the "loon" factor (any guy named WorldPeace has got to be an aging hippie, a head case or both), there is also the possibility of backlash by going for the jugular even before the January filing deadline. "It's the ultimate irony, a bomb-thrower named WorldPeace," says former Dallas County Democratic Party chairman Ken Molberg. "In Democratic circles, they don't speak about him much, and when they do, it's not favorable."
The Tony Sanchez campaign refuses to even acknowledge that WorldPeace is a legitimate candidate, dismissing his phone harangues against Sanchez as "so misleading they are laughable." Sanchez communications director Michelle Kucero maintains that her boss was cleared of any wrongdoing in the Tesoro Savings and Loan collapse by three governmental agencies years ago.
But that's just the kind of denial that WorldPeace will incorporate into his next prerecorded message to slam Sanchez at the rate of 200,000 calls a day. "If we are hitting an opponent correctly -- hitting them hard -- there is no way for them to respond to the dialers," Kerr says. "Traditional media take too long, and by then we have anticipated what their response will be and changed our message."
WorldPeace believes autodialing levels the playing field, enabling him to compete with Sanchez and his millions of dollars. It can also be irritating, and unless you put a face with the voice, it's far too impersonal to impart a good sense of the candidate.
At 53, WorldPeace, who calls himself a "blue-dog Democrat," knows he eventually will have to step out from behind his dialers. He feels confident the positive parts of his message -- peace-loving, drug-free, justice for all, regular guy -- will prevail. "When people see my name on the ballot, they will not be able to resist," he says. "I mean, psychologically, who can vote against WorldPeace?"
Disbarred lawyer found to be in contempt of court

FRI 07/30/2004 Houston Chronicle, Section B, Page 2, 3 STAR Edition
John WorldPeace, a disbarred lawyer and occasional candidate for political office, was found in contempt of court this week for ignoring a state district judge's order to stop practicing law.
WorldPeace, who legally changed his name from Kenneth Wolter, appealed the verdict to the 14th Court of Appeals.
A jury sentenced him to three months in jail for each of seven instances of acting as an attorney after his disbarment and to six months for 10 other instances.
He also was fined $500 for each violation. If WorldPeace serves jail time, it probably won't be more than 18 months, the limit for contempt convictions, State Bar of Texas officials said.
WorldPeace refused to participate in the trial, saying he was not told of his legal rights, including his right to a lawyer.
He said he was not served notice of the trial until Monday, when he appeared in court after being subpoenaed as a witness.
WorldPeace was disbarred for accepting money from clients without performing legal services, said Jed Molleston, assistant disciplinary counsel for the state bar.
WorldPeace failed to comply with a judge's order last year that he turn in his attorney's license and State Bar membership card.
He also was accused of failing to inform courts in which he had cases pending that he had been disbarred and to return client files.

The free toilet paper saga...I knew someone who got toilet paper from an employer……
Welllllll, so I knew this guy, someone from my past, who once worked for a grocery store over the summer during college.
With each regular grocery truck shipment, the store also got "in store use" store supplies which were generic cleaning, register paper, grocery bags, and other items -not the consumer brands. One of the typical items was the cheapest toilet paper rolls known to mankind. This generic toilet paper was very rough but had far more feet per roll than the usual consumer brands sold by the store. Because of the extra length, this paper lasted a lot longer IF you could tolerate the feel on your nether regions.
Of course, none of the women in the store wanted to use the rough "in store use" toilet paper. And there were always rolls of much softer consumer brands toilet paper roll packages that had been damaged by customers or come open on the shelves due to defective packaging. The female assistant manager would write-off the packages of the much softer consumer paper rolls as "destroyed/discarded" and then put the good rolls from the packages in the ladies' bathroom.
The "in store use" store supply toilet paper rolls kept building up in the janitor closet since the company sent 4 to 6 rolls per week on the freight trucks with other items for "in store use". It never got used very much except to resupply the men's bathroom which still didn't have the same level of use as a ladies bathroom would have had due to obvious reasons. So this guy figured out about this nice, large, source of toilet paper rolls that were not counted in the store's regular grocery inventory. This meant that the rolls wouldn't be accounted for or missed during inventories. And the weasel-like and balding store manager never, ever went in the janitor closet since it was -below- him to do that.
So the guy started to bring about 8 rolls of "in store use" toilet paper out of the store in ~empty~ 2 liter cola cardboard boxes each time he got the "empty" boxes. He was getting the boxes in order to move his belonging to college for his 2nd year. By the time the summer had ended, he had exhausted much of the over flow of "in store use" toilet paper rolls from the janitors closet and this was even while using the "in store use" toilet paper in the men's bathroom all summer long. The weasely-bald manager, as a man, never ever knew that the ladies room had not gotten an "in store use" toilet paper roll put in it for months.
In fact, the guy had gotten 96 (!!!) rolls of the "in store use" store supply toilet paper for him and his 3 college apartment roommates to use. One roommate complained about the rough toilet paper just after moving in to the dorm apartment in September, at the start of the college year. This guy told that roommate to spend money to buy his own soft toilet paper or jump in a lake if he didn't like the free toilet paper. As the complaining roommate was also very cheap, he ended up quieting his complaints and never spent his money on soft toilet paper. The 96 rolls of toilet paper actually ended up lasting the entire college year in that dorm apartment (only with males using it, though) because the rolls were so much longer than regular consumer brand toilet paper. There were still about one or two rolls remaining plus what was in the bathroom when the college year finished in May of the next calendar year!
The guy took the extra rolls with him to his summer rental house down at the beach where he had a different and much cooler summer job than the grocery store job. The grocery store was torn down about 14 years later but the wrecking crew probably found more unused "in store use" toilet paper rolls in the rubble...

Deerfield Illinois Library - Library from HellDeerfield IL. Library has the highest turn over rate in the last five years . Why do we ask? The Head of the library is only concerned with herself and the construction of her new Domain. The board couldn't care less . They don't give a crap if they lose some of the best educated employees and dedicated staff.
Remember in less than a year the new Pergander library will be opened and that is the bottom line.Add a ReplyLink:
Thank you for calling the psychiatric hotline.. oh wait...Friday, right before lunch a call came into me. I said my intro and then the voice on the other end just started speaking in tongues. I was getting ready to ask him if he would like a Spanish rep, (although I was not quite sure if that was his language) when he started speaking perfect English:
"There are people out here digging on my lawn all the way up to my house. They are not supposed to be here. They are not the same sewer trucks that were her yesterday. These are the same trucks that were reported stolen to the county. This is a conspiracy, I have written Washington DC about this and I am suing the county"
I got the attention of my teamleader who sits right in front of me. She logged in to my phone to listen. I broke in to his ramblings, trying to contain my laughter. "I'm sorry sir, you have the wrong number." I explained to him who were are and what we do. I then asked him if he took his meds this morning how I could help him.
He yelled, "I already told you how you can help me, you need to call in somebody rich to come get me. This is a conspiracy". I replied, "Sir if you feel like your life is in danger, you need to hang up with me and call 911"
"I told you this was a conspiracy, the cops are in on it too, that's why I can't call them. I explained again that there was nothing I could do to help him. He mumbled something in tongues and hung up the phone.
While I was at lunch, he called back. He got a male representative who reminds me of "The Stapler Guy" from Office Space
So "Milton" answers the phone, and the same guy just starts spewing weights of the trucks and numbers. Milton explained again who we are and what we do. The guy said, "Yes I know who you are I OWN this company." Then he hung up. Next, he calls back and gets the girl that sits right next to Milton. She, too explains that he has the wrong number. When he starts cussing her out, she said "Sir, you do not have to be so inappropriate" My team leader IM'd her and told her to transfer the call to her.
When she did, he starts cussing, my TL out as well. She copied down down his number before he hung up and had our tech guy block his number.
It is quite obvious the guy was mentally ill. I don't think THAT in of itself is funny. I am not making light of mental illness. But the conversation was too hilarious not to share.Add a ReplyLink:
Belk's Department Store - WORKING AT BELKSJust wanted to share a story with you. I have a daughter who is employed by Belk's Department store. She has been employed there for many years. Belk just did reviews on their employees and most of them got a pay cut from 1.00 to their starting pay. The reason for this is they say that if you aren't selling 197.00 an hour or open charges thenit is a pay cut you get. I am totally pissed off with the company and think it is disgusting the way they are treating their employees. Of course it is OK for them to have to be at the store at 12am during the holidays. I cannot understand why the employees don't stick together and tell corporate where to stick it. I know as a customer I will be writing a letter to Belk corporateAdd a ReplyLink:
