The Chicago office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations today formally announced its joining the launching of a coalition supporting Chicago Hotel Workers in a breakfast ceremony at the signature room, tomorrow morning.
Cafe Finjan is a series of interfaith arts exchanges, begun in 2004 by the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs (JCUA) as part of its Jewish-Muslim Community-Building Initiative post 9-11. The goal of the series is to establish points of contact and nurture a greater understanding between Jews and Muslims of Chicago by creating spaces for Jews, Muslims, and others of diverse backgrounds to come together and give voice to their identity and experience as part of a larger community.
Born in Belarus and raised in Buffalo Grove, surrounded by Jewish immigrants like himself, Jacob Katz grew up knowing little of Islam and less of Muslims.
The message Sunday from a politician, a clergyman, a rabbi and a Muslim activist to a Jewish congregation in Uptown that saw its synagogue recently defaced by anti-Semitic graffiti was the same: A hate crime against one group is a crime against all humanity.
A prominent national Islamic civil rights and advocacy group today urged Americans of all faiths to pray for the safety of 13 West Virginia coal miners trapped underground since early Monday.
The Hanania household has a curio cabinet adorned with a menorah and Torah, doorways with hanging mezuzahs (a tiny scroll for blessings and luck) and an elaborate ketubah marking a Jewish marriage.
The high holidays are behind us, together with their emotional and spiritual peaks. Whether these peaks occurred in a synagogue, outside in a Sukkah, or on a street filled with dancing Torahs, they have all left their mark. How they will shape our year remains to be seen.
Attendants of the Chicago Interfaith Gathering Symposium hope to explore and build toward solutions to this question at this year's gathering at the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago Augustana Chapel, Nov. 10-11.
In the spirit of unity, people of many cultures gathered Oct. 5 to experience an evening of Muslim tradition. Officials and residents from Burr Ridge, Darien, Willowbrook and Oak Brook met at Ashton Place in Willowbrook for a meal and program hosted by the Muslim Educational and Cultural Center of America.
CAIR-Chicago's Executive Director, Yaser Tabbara, spoke today at the Muslim Educational and Cultural Center's (MECCA) third annual interfaith Iftar (breaking of the fast) marking the first day of Ramadan.

This is a somewhat belated tribute, to yet another star of the silver screen. Aussie actor Rod Taylor (January 11, 1930 – January 7, 2015) arrived in Hollywood in the 1950s, and though he never achieved the fame of fellow countrymen like Errol Flynn (and, much later, Hugh Jackman, Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe, etc), he did star in several big films, including Hitchcock's The Birds, The Time Machine, Young Cassidy, 36 Hours (and, his last outing, Inglourious Basterds, in which he played Winston Churchill).

3 Godfathers (1948)
There are two traditions I've maintained on this blog ever since I began blogging. One is to celebrate my birthday with a pertinent post (coming up in two weeks' time). The other is to, for Christmas, review a Christmas-themed film (of which there are examples aplenty). For once, though, the Christmas film I've chosen is one with a difference. It's a Western, and – while it doesn't have any actual blood and gore shown – there is death here. It's not a sugary film, and even though the first half has its share of humour, the final impression is one of a bittersweet story of a world that isn't quite black and white.
Dynamite (1929)
This post is a consequence of the last film review I did: that of the 1966 Dharmendra-Rajshree starrer, Mohabbat Zindagi Hai. A 'marriage of convenience' theme about an heiress who must marry in a hurry in order to inherit the wealth due to her—and chooses a man on death row as her husband, so that she can legally get her money, but is conveniently widowed. Only to find that things don't quite work out the way she'd expected.
The connection with Dynamite, made nearly 40 years earlier, by the legendary Cecil B DeMille? This film, DeMille's first full-length sound feature, has several similarities to Mohabbat Zindagi Hai: the rich female lead; the clause in a dead relative's will requiring her to marry in order to inherit; the down-to-earth coal miner who is accused (and convicted) of murder and is chosen by the heiress as a temporary husband so that she can get her money…
The Last Time I Saw Paris (1954)
Looking through the blog posts I've published over the past few months, I realized what a long time it's been since I reviewed one of those Hollywood classics, the type of film that people tend to recognize the name of, even if they've never seen it, or even if the film didn't win any awards. Or wasn't, eventually, as in this case, all that great after all. But I wanted to watch The Last Time I Saw Paris for two reasons: one, it stars Elizabeth Taylor, one of the most mesmerizing faces in 50s' Hollywood.
Flower Drum Song (1961)
A very belated tribute to an actor I've actually seen only in a couple of films, but whom I like a lot: James Shigeta. The Hawaiian-born Shigeta passed away on July 28 this year, and it came to me as a shock a couple of days ago when I discovered that he was gone—and that no newspaper and none of the sites I occasionally visit—mentioned it. The news, however, made me remember the first film in which I saw James Shigeta: Flower Drum Song, one of his earliest films. Very different from his debut film (the superb The Crimson Kimono, one of my favourite noirs), but enjoyable in its own way—and an interesting commentary, both deliberate and unwitting, on immigrants in the US.
Lilies of the Field (1963)
And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
-Matthew 6: 28-29, King James Version
I am very familiar with this passage from the Bible (part of the Sermon on the Mount, this passage is part of one of my favourites—a beautiful little piece of scripture on how futile it is to worry), but when I first heard of the name of this film, the relevance of its title didn't strike me. When I started watching it, I realized: yes, the lilies of the field are impermanent, evanescent, depending on no-one and yet not even doing anything very visible to keep themselves alive. But they—like all the flowers of this world, especially the wild ones, with no-one to care for them—are amongst the most beautiful of God's creations.
Not an exact parallel with the protagonists of this heart-warming and sweet little tale, but close. And with some subtly-put messages about being content with one's lot, yet pushing on, working hard.
Only the Valiant (1951)
Someone once told me "I don't watch Westerns and war movies. Too much blood and gore, too little character development, and no message to take home. Nothing but guts and glory."
True, if (and this is a very big, very emphatic if) the only war films or Westerns you've ever seen are the straightforward action types (and even among those, old films tend to be far less gory than their newer counterparts—modern Westerns and war films like The Thin Red Line, Saving Private Ryan, True Grit, etc are, on the whole, far more graphic than their predecessors). But there's nothing to stop a film—irrespective of genre—from also being well-written, from having good characterisation and character development, and from being something more than a battle of "let's see who's braver". Some of the best films—in fact, even the films that I've found affirming virtues like humanity, peace, equality, and so on—I've seen have been war films or Westerns: Paths of Glory, La Grande Guerra, The Searchers…
My point being, there are films out there that may seem, at first glance, deceptively run-of-the-mill genre film. Then, at closer inspection, they turn out to be something more.
Alexander's Ragtime Band (1938)
The other day, scrolling through previous posts, I realised I hadn't reviewed any Hollywood films for a while (to be honest, I've not even watched many Hollywood films over the past couple of months). I also realised that it's been ages since I watched any films starring Tyrone Power, one of my favourite Hollywood actors. Time to amend that, I decided. So I got out a Power film I hadn't watched before. An Irving Berlin production, replete with good songs and plenty of Ty candy.
The Egyptian (1954)
…and it's a historical, again!
Frequent visitors to this blog would probably by now have realised that I have a weakness for history and historical films. Give me a sword and sandals epic, a Mughal extravaganza, or just about any film set in the ancient, medieval, or even early modern world, and I'm happy. Even happier when it's a somewhat unusual setting. And more when the film maker has spent two years researching the film.
The Egyptian is set in the Egypt of 3,300 years ago. The main story plays out as a flashback, the memories of old Sinuhe (Edmund Purdom), who looks back on his life.
Christmas in Connecticut (1945)
Aka Indiscretion, which doesn't sound quite so Christmassy (in fact, it sounds rather more like a Hitchcock film) but describes this one better. Because this film, while it is about an eventful Christmas in Connecticut, is more about an indiscreet little bunch of lies, and the amount of hot water they land their perpetrators in.

Trapped by Loki, The God of Mischief
While still sitting in some murky waters, Journey into Mystery improves once again this week, this time providing our Norse God with some trouble in the form of his pain in the neck brother (though this relation is never acknowledged here) Loki. It's the third book in three months, making it the fastest published title at the time, and being penned by Stan's younger brother, it has a definite fresh feel to it despite seemingly being rushed out.
With that said, there are still problems abound in the writing itself—Loki's origin story is perhaps the most disappointing yet simply because it sets things up brilliantly before resorting to a ridiculous Deus-Ex-Machina (seriously, it took Loki that long to poke someone in the eye? And surely that sort of tear wouldn't count—are magical contracts not without their fine print?), and everything seems kind of underdeveloped no doubt due to the 12 page limit restriction within this anthology title.
Despite such flaws however, this Thor guy, and his human counterpart are something I look forward to reading about. This time acknowledging Thor's mythological background with Loki and Asgard itself in a couple of pages, plus Thor lifting a train track while the train goes over it, there are some great moments here. Which is more I can say for Bruce Banner who, even with 25 pages, continues to bore every other month.

The guy at CPAT orientation said there are roughly 1200 taking the test. I guess he was talking physical test......
Anyways, he said out of that number, some will fail the PT, the run, other parts of the hiring, and some just wont show for the test, and also won't show up for the academy. He said the number will drop from 1200 to roughly 600, then from that number they will get the 300-320.
I don't know where he got those numbers from, just relaying what he said.
As we say in the Army, "Hurry up and Wait" is the name of the game. No surprises here.
Guys, it's really early to worry about the life of the list. No one knows what the hiring ratio is going to be. This list is going to be the source of proby classes twice a year until sometime at the end of 2016/early2017. That's a long way off! Stop worrying!
Wow if first OC class doesn't go in until next July looks like my best bet is Ems/next promo exam with my list number
Being that I almost made 2043 (List #mid 5000s) and got dicked from 6019 (list# in the 700s), I can say that the list moves quicker than you would think. Focus on preparing for every step of the process so that when your list # is reached, you just breeze right through it.
Also, after seeing what theyre asking for proof of residency, lots of guys on the list are being pushed back. Heck i almost lost my spot for a second until i rememberedmy old bank account with chase. Thank goodness for that. Guys who will have it the easiest will be those youngens who still live at home.
Whether or not the list starts now or in January actually makes a huge difference for those of us out on the bubble. If the list doesn't count as established until they start the first hire off of it, then they could put a class of promos/PHs in this summer and then do 8 or 9 classes entirely off the list from jan14-jan18, or they could put in 1/3 of a class worth of OC guys now and hire 7 or 8 more full classes off the list until july17. To the guys up front it's just a matter of how long you gotta wait, for the guys further down, that could be an extra 1000 list numbers that get called.
I'm not rooting against anyone, or saying I have any idea what's gonna happen, all I'm saying is it makes a big difference!
I told my investigator that some of these requirements will be impossible for many people, almost to the point where it seems as if there's some sort of conscious effort to take away points from as many people as possible. She said she agrees and that she's glad she's not the one who made the rules on this one. Even NYPD was'nt this riduculous with residency. Very few people would actually have 12 months worth of bills stuffed in the closet from 3 years ago; and something tells me that they know that. But hey...
I think that there will be some oc candidates in the July class, why process over 700 people if your applicant pool was already upto the desired number. While I don't think they will come close to 720 on the oc list this summer at least people in the top 100 should be physically,mentally and financially prepared. My list is low 200s and I honestly don't think I will be reached because all the guys in the low numbers are less likely to differ. All I can do is hope there was a lot of 18 year olds that have to wait
Shouldn't matter much to you guys, you're going to have to get processed sooner or later.
As far as residency goes, I used my W-2's, my bank account and my college loan billing statements. I don't believe you necessarily need to have utility bills. It would be impossible for me to prove that, being both of the places I've lived, my utilities were included in the rent cost.
I also had my tax returns going back to 2009 and credit card billing statements. For my banking and credit card statements, I called my bank and they sent me the statements for that time period. Same for my college loan billing statements.
For those that are worried, one of the documents I have listing the acceptable forms of proof says something like 'can accept other documents in lieu of...' Or something of that nature. Meaning if you have legitimate forms of proof, they can chose to accept it.
I simply take it one step at a time, especially with the last several years, I don't expect anything until I'm actually there, participating in that step of the process.
As far as how many people it will take, I think there are too many variables to tell how the numbers will come out. Just be ready for when they come calling.
But of course we're raising questions. These people want you to prove residency TWICE. First to retain the 5 points, which is when u have to show every piece of goddamn mail youve ever recieved in your entire life, and second to prove CURRENT residence before appointment, which can be achieved by simply showing any 3 pieces of mail recieved within the last 60 days which REFLECT ACTIVITY at that residence. Its mind boggling to say the least, and definetely redundant.
Like i said, the only thing that saved my *ss was that checking account i just happened to have with Chase from 09-11. Without that, i wouldve been on the Sanitation website today lol.

Foliage just pops
Many of us were impressed with miclino's "Little Honey Hydrangea".
Well today I took a shot of one of my "Aralia Sun King". It is quite hardy having easily survived this past tough winter.
The foliage is quite dense and not yet July 1st and this specimen has already grown to 3 feet in width and 2 feet in height.
It is in significant shade and it just glows as I hope the picture shows.
What perennials do you have that light up your shady corner?
This post was edited by rouge21 on Wed, Jun 26, 13 at 7:15
Nice! I really like gold and chartreuse foliage as long as it's healthy. The contrast between the bright gold or green-gold and a dark green just lights up the garden. My gateway plant was a gold Hakone grass, but I've since added a variety of gold plants throughout my gardens. I might just have to try one of these.
I have several yellow-green hostas that light up shady areas: Sun Power, Sum and Substance, August Moon, and Gold Drop. These are all older varieties. I'm sure there are many more newer ones available. I have a yew with yellow-green spring foliage, even a native elderberry with yellowish-green new leaves. If you like that colour (as I do), there are many choices that range from cheap to more expensive.
For sure there are many hostas that very much brighten up a shady location but I when I started this thread I was more looking to non hosta plants as there are some of us that are not as enamoured to the ubiquitous hosta.

To get that color from a vine/ground cover, I love sweet potato vine. In z5 (pretty sure) you'd have the luxury of not worrying about where you put it, no permanent commitment, maybe good for a new areas waiting for perennials to fill in, to pep up CL fence. This color goes so well with purple/red foliage, they make each other POP, to my eye. I don't do much with plain green leaves.
Heucherella might appeal.
This two are just doing a great job in this shady area. They are Leucothoe Rainbow and Bowles Golden Sedge. This can be a VERY wet area, as the rainwater runs into this area, so it can stand with inches of water until it soaks in. These two are not only taking all of the water runoff, but thriving here. This is their first year here and they haven't missed a beat, so far. So glad I decided on the Leucothoe for this area.
Creeping Jenny is bright yellow/green. I have it growing in about 3 hrs of afternoon sun.
Dgregory--creeping jenny is a favorite of mine too but mine seems to be brighter than yours. I have it under a huge maple tree where it thrives. It really brightens up that dark space. The nicest thing about it is it's easy to control. I t's fairly shallow rooted. I just grab handfuls and pull then smooth out the rest and you'd never know I did it.
May I suggest Lamium 'Lemon Frost' or maybe Lamium 'Anne Greenway', if you want yellow accents. And we haven't even got to Lamium 'Pink Pewter' or 'Orchid Frost', if you want silver.
Why wait to split it? It's Lamium, it roots easily As an experiment - take a small chunk and cut the tops off. Stick them into an annual basket, keep moist and in the shade. Right next to the rest of the Lamium. Three weeks and you're cooking. Or even just stick them in the ground next to your patch.
I'm messing around trying out L/F next to plants.
Lemon Frost - Obsidian, Green Spice, Peach Flambe, Gold Zebra and Solar Eclipse.
Rogue, don't you just love those plants which help out that way? But I know how you feel, Gyr...when a plant looks yellow, you just want to "help" it.
This spring I've put in some Key Lime Pie heucheras and a few coleus. I'm surprised the coleus aren't doing too well, just sitting there not growing. I thought they were fool-proof.
Last February the euphorbia put forth a beautiful lime green bloom. I was so surprised, had no idea it would bloom then or like that. I was just glad for the greyish foliage. A few little seedlings have popped up, so I hope to snag an extra plant or two. Here's a picture from Feb. It's called Wulfenii Shorty.

Retailers' Descriptions
Here's what other sites are saying:
Dagger brings you a paddle full of excitement with the Zydeco 11. 0 Kayak. This easy-riding boat holds you and all of your gear, tracks like your Bloodhound, and barely makes a dent in your bank account. First-time paddlers will savor the stability and seasoned river rats will relish its ability to handle moving water. Longer than the Zydeco 9. 0 and with more dry storage capacity, you'll be able to enjoy overnight fishing and river camping trips without sacrificing any essential gear. Lightweight and stable, the Zydeco will bring a song to the lips of first-timers and experienced paddlers alike. On the bottom, the bow keel bleeds into a flat and channeled midsection, and tapers to a built-in skeg at the stern. Steering is sweet, accelerating across the flats doesn't require an all-out effort, and navigating tight lines won't leave you feeling on edge. The generous cockpit lets you enter and exit with grace, regardless of whether you're shaped like a prima ballerina or a 10-year veteran linebacker for one of those midwest teams that seem to play most games in driving snow. The Comfort Fit Seating outfitting gives you on-boat adjustments when you need to tweak the seat. Cushioned pads attach inside the cockpit if your knees are particularly knobby, or on the outside to protect your thighs when you're paddling with a purpose. The stern hatch and bulkhead storage give you gear-toting capacity for water-based climbing trips or full-day fishing forays. Keep your rain gear within arm's reach using the bow or stern on-deck bungee rigging storage system.

Gardner hopes seeds of fiscal restraint will bloom
The Colorado Statesman
Republicans heard from U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner about congressional efforts to create jobs, his own legislation to stimulate domestic energy production and his thirsty daughter during a luncheon thrown by the state GOP on Thursday at a downtown Denver restaurant.
Gardner was the speaker at the October Capital Club gathering, a consistent draw for about 100 donors every month at Maggiano's Little Italy restaurant since Republican Party Chairman Ryan Call launched the monthly fundraiser this spring.
Cop chief is priority for Mayor
The Colorado Statesman
As Denver Mayor Michael Hancock approaches a decision on hiring a new police chief, dozens of residents let the mayor know what kind of chief they'd like him to pick at a town hall on Monday night at Manual High School.
"We hope the person you select will have sensitivity to all the communities you represent in Denver," said the Rev. Timothy Tyler, pastor of the Shorter Community AME Church, one of about 20 residents who trooped to a microphone to tell a selection committee what Denver needs in its new top cop.
Obama fights for jobs bill as 'warrior for the working class' in Denver visit
The Colorado Statesman
President Barack Obama brought the campaign for his jobs bill to a sun-drenched parking lot outside Abraham Lincoln High School in southwest Denver on Tuesday.
Calling himself a "warrior for the working class," a peppy Obama repeatedly urged Republicans in Congress to "pass the bill," a $447 million proposal he said combines tax cuts for working families and small businesses with increased spending on infrastructure and government jobs, including teachers.
SoS, Pueblo spar over inactives
The Colorado Statesman
In a series of terse letters exchanged this week between top election officials in Colorado and Pueblo County, Secretary of State Scott Gessler and Pueblo Clerk and Recorder Gilbert Ortiz accused each other of misinterpreting the law when it comes to who should receive mail ballots. By week's end, both sides were threatening to take the other to court over the question of sending ballots to "inactive" voters serving abroad in the military.
GOP Official instills hope for 2012
NRCC's Rep. Pete Sessions heads Republican dinner in Colorado Springs
The Colorado Statesman
COLO. SPRINGS — There was a little bit of Texas swagger on stage in Colorado Springs last Saturday night as U.S. Rep. Pete Sessions — the Dallas Republican who heads the National Republican Congressional Committee — told a statewide GOP fundraising dinner that it's up to Republicans in Colorado to make sure President Barack Obama doesn't serve another term.
Colorado gets a 24-karat donation to cover the State Capitol dome in gold
The Colorado Statesman
The State Capitol's iconic gold dome will once again be clad with gold mined in Colorado, and the shiny stuff won't cost taxpayers a cent.
That's because Anglo-Gold Ashanti, owners of the Cripple Creek & Victor Mine in Teller County, is donating 72 ounces of the precious metal to a state preservation effort under way to restore the dome.
Gessler sues Denver clerk
Secretary of State wants to prevent mailing ballots to inactive voters
The Colorado Statesman
Secretary of State Scott Gessler on Wednesday sued Denver's clerk and recorder to stop her office from sending mail ballots to inactive voters, saying the plan would violate state law and would raise questions about statewide results in the November election because other counties are only mailing ballots to active voters.
Denver Clerk and Recorder Debra Johnson, a Democrat, countered that Denver reads state law differently than Gessler, a Republican, and says she intends to fight the lawsuit.
Prop 103 foes roll out campaign
Tax hike to fund schools at issue
The Colorado Statesman
Opponents of a statewide ballot measure that would raise an estimated $3 billion in new taxes to fund education launched an attack against the proposal this week, claiming it will cost Colorado 119,000 jobs after five years and deal a "crushing blow" to the state's struggling economy.
But backers of Proposition 103 charged that opponents don't understand how to interpret their own data and countered that it's cutbacks to school funding, not higher taxes, that will harm the state's economy.
Colorado Remembers 9-11
The Colorado Statesman
They brought flags, picnic lunches and deeply seared memories to a downtown park on the afternoon of Sept. 11 to commemorate the same day 10 years ago when everything changed.
By turns mournful and festive, the 'Colorado Remembers 9/11' event included patriotic speeches delivered by the state's most prominent elected officials, mighty Air Force jets flying overhead, and a rousing concert by the Beach Boys, but the stars of the occasion were the roughly 500 military, police, firefighters and other emergency responders honored for their courage and standing for their fallen brethren.

This bush poem is the story of a real person, my good friend Graeme Thomas. A quiet achiever, a jack of all trades and a decent human being, he doesn't believe he deserves the title "legend". This poem puts an end to that!
The Legend of Graeme Thomas
On those cold, crisp nights 'round Gunning when the dingos' calls are clear,
You can hear the truckies yarning over campfires, drinking beer.
The stories told are many, the story tellers few;
Though listening may be agony, the yarns they spin are true .
One night a truckies convoy set up camp to cook some steak
Off the freeway out of Woy Woy, to have a well earned break.
Graeme led the trucks in line to their favourite parking station;
He'd led these rigs a thousand times across this mighty nation.
In singlets blue like truckies suits they laughed and joked around,
While rubbing hands and stomping boots on the cold and frosty ground.
They'd barely started sizzling the bangers, steaks and chops,
When some of them started grizzling about "Those fuckin' cops!"
Before the other truckies there yelled "Shut ya fuckin' mouth!"
A sound broke through the still night air coming from the South.
The sound was like no other rig these men had heard before,
Of gears that screamed like a tortured pig, the exhaust like a dying whore!
Two headlights pierced the gloomy night as the truck rolled up right there,
It slowed to a crawl then pulled to the right as the brakes rent the still night air.
The big rig clattered, it jumped and shook as it idled down to a halt.
Then with a belch of thick, black soot the engine stopped with a jolt.
The battered truck leaked grease and oil, Its paint was chipped and scratched,
The chrome was peeled from too much toil, its tyres were bald and patched.
In silence stood the phantom Mack as mist rolled round its rims;
No sound came from the darkened cab, no movement from within.
A truckie raised a shaking hand to point at the driver within,
His ashen face was pale and bland, his voice was cracked and thin.
"Of all the rigs from sea to sea, from the cities to the outback;
I've prayed he'd never come for me, the Devil's big black Mack!"
The truckies glanced at one another, some soiled their short black dacks;
One whimpered softly for his Mother while most stop dead in their tracks.
For all who drive to earn a buck know when their time is due,
When Old Nick winds up in his truck he's come to transport you!
Now Graeme was a legend within the truckies clan;
They say one night he flattened two-Bob Cobb and broke his hand.
But Graeme's knees were trembling at the sight of the big black Mack,
His mind was fast remembering when he went to Hell and back.......
He'd stripped a lousy retread one night on Highway One;
It's the thing long distance truckies dread, but soon the job was done.
Then as he packed his gear away he heard a familiar sound,
A big old Mack diesel's bray made him turn around.
A big black truck was bearing down, slowing as if to stop.
The sight of it made Graeme frown and caused his heart to flop.
The legend of the phantom rig came to his mind once more...
"The gears scream like a tortured pig, the exhaust like a dying whore!"
The black paint sucked the feeble light that came from the moon and stars;
The colder air, the darker night, no buses, trucks or cars.
Then from within the darkened cab there came an evil voice;
"Come on in, me truckin' lad, ye' haven't got a choice!"
Graeme knew the stories well, and of the Devil's calling;
But Graeme wasn't going to hell, he found the thought appalling!
"Get thee hence!" he cried aloud, "You phantom highway drifter!
Fuck off now or how'd you like a piece of ten inch shifter?!"
Graeme lunged at the ghostly cab like a vengeful fighting machine.
"Piss off, you driving demon scab!" and smashed the Mack's windscreen!
He knew the truckies legends well and that the driver's prison
Was there within his small black cell from where the Devil had risen.
A blinding flash, an eerie sound was all that Graeme recalled;
He barely remembered feeling the ground when back to his truck he crawled.
But he knew this night would someday come, 'twas the Devil who set the dates;
But not when his chops were almost done, and not in front of his mates!
So there in the parking station off the freeway late that night,
We saw the confrontation 'twixt the Darkness and the Light.
We were all too scared to run or yell, but then, through the swirling mist,
Came Graeme for the truck from Hell, with his shifter in his fist!
From deep within the Devil's lair there came a rumbling sound,
A filthy stench filled the cold night air as he wound the window down.
A pustulant, gnarly, wrinkled fist emerged from the truck from Hades,
Attached to an arm of rotting grist with the middle finger raised.
Then the engine from the truck of death roared loudly in the night,
In fear the truckies held their breath and clenched their butt cheeks tight!
"I'll get you yet, you son of a bitch!" cried the Devil, "On one of your voyages!"
"Ahhh! Go and bite your arse, ya prick!" replied Graeme as he pricked his sausages.
The big truck shuddered and almost stalled, but then picked up its pace,
The truckies cheered, they were all enthralled as they watched it leave this place.
They stuffed themselves with chops and beer, there'd be no truckin' tonight!
For this was a night of grace and cheer, it was Graeme's night, alright!
So now you truckies on Highway One can travel both safer and swifter,
Be courteous, kind and never be glum, and carry a ten inch shifter!
The Devil's gone with his Hellish rig, we'll hear that sound no more,
The gears that screamed like a tortured pig, the exhaust like a dying whore!

With the #3 pick in the 2015 draft, your Indiana Pacers!
Wow the arena is empty...
Hope he is ok.
ok this is hilarious....blahahahahha
Dc y do u take those shots!?
There is no energy in this game on the court or in the stands.
Bad shot there, DC.
i hope tyler can keep up the energy
Paul already with 2 fouls
It's a quite bad game, though.
this game is sloppy as
put tyler in there just from an energy standpoint
Why is Lance playing shooting guard when he never shoots?
This was a nice aggressive move by Hayward.
I love the new Roy...
Really Danny? Hayward?
If I saw Gordon Hayward in public I would not even assume he was a basketball player.
Nice pass, Lance. Well, decent enough for Roy to score
holy moly DC is fast
Looks like we have the DC vs. Harris and Roy vs. Jefferson show here.

Why Worms In the Toilet Might Be a Good Idea 124

4$ per flush. That's pretty steep!
Have you ever priced out the cost of your civilized flush?
If you start with the cost of pipes in the ground and end with water treatment plants, it adds up fairly quickly,
though the infrastructure can be amortized across tens or hundreds of thousands of users and tens of years.
Taxes are what we use to buy civilization.

"It's just simply more economical to dig a hole in the ground"
until the next guy digs one up.. seriously. had the same problem in my yard with the dog. burying it worked for a while, but eventually ran out of new places to dig. buried shit stays around for a while. eventually had to get one of these: http://www.energystead.com/doogies-dooley-pet-waste-composter-2000/ [energystead.com]

it's not like they have signs advertising worms. looks like any other campsite throne.
http://phys.org/news/2012-10-turd-eating-worms-air-canadian-toilets.html [phys.org]
Earthworm castings (earthworm shit) are worth about 1.50 a dry pound retail.
I'd also just point out that earthworms eat the shit in outhouse pits when the uses don't dump a ton of lime into it. All the outhouses need is solar powered positive pit ventilation.
Hell most of Africa just needs an adult in the village to enforce outhouse digging. Avoid having the outhouse being the commons.
Most people don't realize it, but the humble, ubiquitous earthworm is an invasive species in North America. Though you might think of it as useful and beneficial to the soil, in the forests of north America, the earthworm is causing a lot of damage. So I get a bit concerned when they start talking about throwing in "imported worms."

SAN DIEGO - Are we enlightened now? Does anyone believe that Americans are better off now than they were before they heard the peculiar racial musings of Donald T. Sterling, the 80-year-old married billionaire who didn't want his 31-year-old girlfriend flaunting her relationships with African-Americans?
WASHINGTON - Barack Obama's 949-word response on Monday to a question about foreign policy weakness showed the president at his worst: defensive, irritable, contradictory and at times detached from reality.
WASHINGTON - This is the time when Americans renew their hatred of Washington and Washington wallows in a bittersweet cocktail of self-love and self-loathing.
The pristine natural world has been gone for a long time; get used to it.
WASHINGTON - Say what you will, but you'd best check for recording devices. Alternatively, you might check your thoughts.
WASHINGTON - Every once in a while a great, conflicted country gets an insoluble problem exactly right. Such is the Supreme Court's ruling this week on affirmative action. It upheld a Michigan referendum prohibiting the state from discriminating either for or against any citizen on the basis of race.
WASHINGTON - The Cliven Bundy spectacle in Nevada has provided a Wild West backdrop for our hottest political issues as we gallop toward the midterm elections.
On Good Friday, President Barack Obama made a bad call. The State Department announced that it would delay its decision on the Keystone XL pipeline until after the Nebraska Supreme Court rules in a case involving the route. The administration insists the decision to punt has nothing to do with politics. Pretty much everyone else thinks otherwise.
WASHINGTON - The word is out that Chelsea Clinton is with child, making the favorite Democratic presidential nominee a soon-to-be grandmother.
WASHINGTON - The debate over campaign contributions is never-ending for a simple reason: Both sides of the argument have merit.
President Barack Obama is right. He told Major Garrett of CBS this week that "Mr. Putin's decisions aren't just bad for Ukraine. Over the long term, they're going to be bad for Russia."
WASHINGTON - The new "agreement" between Russia, the U.S. and our allies is exactly what the former KGB agent ordered.
Last week, the president's lap dog blew his dog whistle.
WASHINGTON - One approaches the race fray with trepidation, but here we go, tippy-toe.
SAN DIEGO - Every state has its challenges. California has drought. Oklahoma has tornadoes. Colorado has forest fires.
The apparently intentional downing of a Germanwings airliner by the co-pilot has us riveted, as commercial plane crashes usually do.
With Ted Cruz announcing and Rand Paul and Marco Rubio soon to follow, it's time to start handicapping the horses and making enemies.
"I don't understand how Jews in America can be Democrats first and Jewish second and support Israel along the line of just following their president," vented Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, on Boston Herald Radio last week.
President Barack Obama has no shortage of chutzpah. His message to Benjamin Netanyahu: Do as I say, not as I have done.
President Barack Obama got it two-thirds right when he said that the delayed confirmation of his attorney general nominee, Loretta Lynch, is owing to Senate dysfunction and Republican stubbornness.
Of all the idiocies uttered in reaction to Benjamin Netanyahu's stunning election victory, none is more ubiquitous than the idea that peace prospects are now dead because Netanyahu has declared that there will be no Palestinian state while he is Israel's prime minister.
I'm standing in the Starbucks line behind 10 other sleepyheads waiting to order my tall skinny cappuccino, otherwise known as a shot of coffee described as I wish to be.
It has been an Iranian tradition since 1979 to end Friday prayers with chants of "Death to America!"
Amid all the verbiage about Hillary Clinton's email, one irrefutable fact emerges: Polls will drive us crazy before the Clintons do.
I knew foster parents were badly needed in Hall County when my husband and I signed up.
Everyone has an idea of what the role of parent means.
About one month after getting approved as foster parents, my husband and I got our first placement.
It's 5:30 a.m. on a Saturday, and my husband taps me.
We got the call at 3 p.m. on a Monday. Two little ones needed a home.

If convicted of class B felony DWI in Missouri are they eligible for DWI court given there is a mandatory two yr sentence in DOC
Most DWI courts require the conviction to be a felony. However, if the charge is a class B felony statute number 577.010 states that the offender must serve two years in prison before probation or parole is granted. The two years would either be associated with a DOC Long Term Treatment Program or it would be a straight DOC sentence for X # of years. I'm assuming that after doing either of these one wouldn't be able to go into DWI court but if anyone can provide clarification or details about this I would greatly appreciate it.
I can't answer this question for every DWI Court in Missouri. In St. Louis County and St. Charles County they will...

I received two years probation with an suspended imposition about five years ago and completed it fine. On a certain application it asks,"have you ever been convicted of a crime, or received a suspended imposition or execution of sentence for a crime in the last seven years?" The answer would be yes but I'm wondering how they could actually find this info out. It is not a government job. What can be found out about me?
That's a good question. Part of what the employer can find out depends on what database(s) they search. At a minimum,...
How do I petition the DMV or court for an ignition interlock removal?

I have already completed 7 months with no violations, paid all my fines and completed all my classes. I really want to get on with my life and having the interlock for another 9 months seems beyond excessive. Should I hire an attorney to petition the DMV on my behalf for early removal?

Have empolyees paid much attn to your paychecks?? Between a bad economy, higher medical deductions, paying freight for some orders, $150 min order policy, rising prices on some products, having to compete with distributors for our own products, etc, our monthly comm really stink. Do you think anyone down in Atlanta mngt really gives a dam about our pay ?
You are falling into thier trap. You aren't getting "PAY". You are getting a commission check. You sold it and they send your commission check - NOT PAY. A fork lift driver, janitor, sect., file clerk, ect. get pay. You are the only one that creates wealth for the company and are not paid, only get your split of the wealth you create. Ask anyone of these "paid" people how they earned money for the company. Don't lit them trivialize just who you "sales people" are. NOTHING GETS DONE, PAYROLL, SHIPPING, BILLING RECORDS, ECT. UNTIL YOU SELL SOMETHING. You are why they are who they are, you pay them.. Don't allow this bunch to make you think you are just another person on the "PAYROLL" Heck , you are the payroll. If this message ever sinks into their thick heads, then sales will go wild. Until then, it will stay flat.
Sounds like someone remembers the words of Mr Z. and Mr M. Zep doesn't "pay" the reps any more than they EARN!! TOO bad our "management" gets pay they DO NOT EARN!!

In Fireworks CS5 Essential Training, author Jim Babbage gives a detailed overview of Fireworks CS5, Adobe's software for creating and optimizing web graphics and interactive prototypes. This course includes a detailed tour of the interface, the enhanced PNG format, and the image editing toolset in Fireworks. Critical concepts, such as prototyping for HTML applications and working with symbols, the heart of an efficient workflow in Fireworks, are covered in detail. Exercise files are included with this course.
Blending modes are a hidden gem in Fireworks. We have got a total of 45 of them to experiment with. And Blend modes can be applied to layers or to objects in Fireworks, and the impact of a Blend mode is controlled primarily by the colors in the images being blended, but also by the opacity of the layer or the object. So let's have a look at this from a couple of different perspectives. Now, Blend modes can be used as a corrective tool or they can be used as a creative tool. In this case, here, the photo of the two cyclists, it's a little bit on the bright side, a little bit over exposed. Now, I could experiment with levels and so on. But a real quick way to make a very simple adjustment to contrast and density would be to work with the Blend mode, and I'll show you how we're going to do this.
I'm going to go into my background layer here where the current Bitmap is located, and I'm going to create a duplicate. I'm just going to drag it down to the New or Duplicate Bitmap Object, and that gives me essentially a copy. So I've two versions of the same thing. Now, on the uppermost of these two, I'm going to change the Blending mode. By default, when you start with a new object your Blending mode is always set to Normal. Now, if I click on that dropdown list though, you'll see we have got quite a few to pick from. The one I want to work with though to darken things down and make things a little bit richer is the one called Multiply. If I select this option, you'll see, right away, a significant difference to the overall image, and that's just by working with this Blending mode.
If I hide that object, you can see we've got the original, nothing has been changed. If I bring the object back, we get that extra density and contrast. Now, I'm not just stuck with it as it is. I can also alter the Opacity. That gives me a little control over the impact of the Blending mode. While this has really helped the image overall in terms of punch, it's added a bit more contrast than I like. So I'm going to go to my Opacity setting here, and I'm going to change the Opacity to about 80%, and you'll see that has an impact on the overall effect. Just by adjusting that opacity, I'm still getting a little more punch like let's see the original again.
There is the original. There is the new one with the blended version of the image on top. I'm still getting a bit of exposure correction. But I'm not getting the really huge amount of contrast that I was getting earlier. So that's one thing you can do with Blending modes, as a corrective tool. Now, I've got another image here. We'll just play around a bit with Blending modes in terms of little more creative options. I've got my cyclist. He's done his tour. He's happy. He's done, and I've got my California logo sitting here, and we're going to play with the Blending mode on the logo. So again, right now, the Blending mode is set to Normal.
So if I pass it on top of my cyclist, it just covers them up. What I'm going to do though is I'm going to change that Blending mode. Now, I can change it from the Layers panel. We saw it earlier. I can also change it from the Properties panel down below. And again, there's my whole list of different options. I'm going to choose Soft Burn, and see what happens. You'll notice as I move this around, take a look at what's happening behind the logo. You notice how it's blending in with the background. We're seeing some of the detail of the background scenery, and I can continue to play around with this. I think I'll try - Stamp looks kind of interesting.
And as I move it around again, you'll see I'm gaining basically sort of a semi-translucent look. If I bring it on top of my cyclist, especially in the areas that aren't white, we're getting some really interesting effects going on. So working with Blending modes can open up a lot of options for you creativity-wise. One more note on how Blending modes work with Symbols. Well, they don't. Just to give you an idea here, I have a set of objects that have been grouped together. They have Blending modes applied to them. In fact, if I grab my Sub-selection tool, I can see that the top snowflake has a Darken Blending mode, and the bottom snowflake has a Negation Blending mode.
And if I spend a lot of time experimenting with Blending mode to get just the right effect, and then I decide to convert this to a symbol, we run into a bit of a problem. So I'm going to select my whole object again and choose Modify > Symbol > Convert to Symbol. I'll just call it snowflakes. And you'll notice when I'm returning back to the canvas and my instance is sitting on the actual canvas, the Blending modes are gone. So there is an issue with Blending modes. They aren't supported in the actual instance. Now that's not to say I can't use a single Blending mode on the instance.
But the individual Blending modes I had in the original symbol are no longer available. So just to give you a quick idea, I'm going to increase my canvas size here, and just reposition the one instance and create a copy, and just drag them around so that I have some overlap. Now, with this particular instance, I can go and choose a single Blend mode, and that will actually work. Notice that everything basically is blending with the background and with the other objects. As I move it around, you'll see that the Blending mode works. But the actual Blend modes that were applied to the original symbol, if I double-click on it to edit it, you'll see, there is the original Blending modes.
They are not being applied at the instance level. Just something to be aware of so you don't spend a lot of time doing something like this, and then it trips you up in the end.
