McDonald's: It's time to do the right thing and pay people enough to LIVE!
My name is Connie Bennett, and I can't live on the $8.30/hr poverty wages I am paid by McDonald's. I've worked at McDonald's for eight years and have received only one raise. I still just make one nickel more than the minimum wag. That's not fair and it's not right. I make so little, I've never seen my grandchildren because I can't afford to travel to Virginia, where they live. I need to work 6 days a week and pick up every shift I can to get close to full-time hours - and it's still not enough. My take-home pay averages $206 per week - and over half of that goes to rent alone. This is not the American dream. As a grandmother, it's especially disheartening that I have so many obstacles blocking me from making a decent wage. Women in our country are paid just 77% of what men are paid, and that gap widens as we age. Organizing into a union is one of the best ways women have to advocate for equal pay. Women workers in a union make on average 14% more than women without the protections of a union. And we're 26% more likely to have health insurance.You don't have to look further than other countries to see the union difference. In Denmark, fast food workers make $21 an hour. Why? Because they have a union. Workers from Denmark, France, Finland, Switzerland, New Zealand, Germany and Norway have all joined together to fight for a living wage, and they won. So that's what I am doing. I'm calling on McDonald's to pay a fair wage and respect my right to organize without interference. Let McDonald's know that you stand with me, and with all women. Help me make history.

Ban Monsanto's toxic Roundup herbicide on federal land
America's federal lands are some of the most pristine and beautiful parts of our country, yet the use of toxic herbicides on federal lands by our own government is contributing to the steep decline in one of our nation's most iconic species. Monarch butterflies are paying an enormous price for the overuse of herbicides like Monsanto's Roundup and others that use the toxic chemical glyphosate. In just two decades of skyrocketing glyphosate use, monarch populations have plunged to record lows—estimated at just a tenth of their average numbers.[1] At this rate of decline, we are in real danger of losing a marvel of nature, the annual monarch migration in our lifetimes. We must act now to urge the U.S. government to cease using glyphosate-containing herbicides, like Monsanto's RoundUp, that are completely destroying monarch habitat on federal lands. Monarchs migrate every year from Canada to Mexico and back. In 1996, an estimated 1 billion monarch butterflies migrating to forests in central Mexico covered nearly 50 acres. But in 2013, they only covered the area about the size of a football field. This dramatic decrease is due to the loss of their primary breeding habitat and food source -- milkweed. These plants that are so crucial to the monarchs' survival have been nearly eradicated on their migration path. It is estimated that as much as 165 million acres of habitat has been lost since the 1990s.[2] Like many other plants, milkweed has been destroyed in great numbers in the Midwest due to the widespread use of glyphosate on corn and soy fields. That is why we are asking the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture to restrict the use of RoundUp and any other herbicide that uses glyphosate. We are also asking both departments to formally encourage the planting of milkweed and other native plants to restore monarch habitat. Recovering monarch butterflies before they vanish completely is an achievable goal, and one that future generations should expect of us. We can begin to take steps to stop this extinction by restricting the use of glyphosate and working to bring back milkweed. -- References [1] http://switchboard.nrdc.org/blogs/sfallon/glyphosate_and_monarchs.html [2] http://www.biologicaldiversity.org/news/press_releases/2014/monarch-butterfly-08-26-2014.html

Tell the Media: It's Time to Expose the TPP
The Obama Administration is negotiating a massive new trade agreement called the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) that would threaten American jobs and rewrite laws governing our food safety, access to medicine and intellectual property rights. Yet the negotiation has been shrouded in secrecy. Special access has been given to corporate lobbyists, but the American people and Members of Congress have been shut out. The television news media should be playing a vital role in informing the American people about the far-reaching and troubling implications of the TPP, but a recent study by the public watchdog group Media Matters found that there has been virtually no televised news coverage of the TPP in the past six months. Given the secret nature of negotiations and the virtual blackout from television news networks, the American people remain largely unaware of the potential legislation and its effects on our country. Our nation must have a thorough public debate before voting on another NAFTA-style trade deal. It is vital that the mainstream television news networks provide full and balanced coverage of this major legislation so that the American people are informed about the potential impact of the TPP. Recently, a bill was introduced in Congress to give the Obama Administration so-called "Fast Track Authority." If approved, Fast Track Authority would prevent Congress from fully debating or amending the TPP before a required up-or-down vote. So far, the Obama Administration is facing stiff opposition to their proposal from Democrats in the House and Senate. Proponents of Fast-Track embarrassingly could not find a single Democrat to co-sponsor the measure in the House. Meanwhile, Senator Harry Reid has joined me and 150 of my Democratic colleagues in declaring our opposition to Fast Track Authority. While Democrats have been joined by 23 House Republicans, there is still a chance that proponents can push Fast Track Authority through. As some in Congress contemplate their position on Fast Track, it is more important than ever that their constituents be informed of this legislation and their representative's stance on the issue. Join me in urging the mainstream news media to use their unique position as a trusted source of information in order to inform the American public and allow democracy to work its will.

The heroic revelations made by whistleblower Edward Snowden have let the world know: The NSA is watching you and has undermined the fabric of the Internet. Its overreaching surveillance creates a climate of fear, chills free speech, and violates our basic human rights — your Fourth Amendment right to privacy.
But a movement is building to change all this.
The Libertarian Party was among the first groups to join a growing coalition of organizations operating under the umbrella Stop Watching Us, which aims to stop the National Security Agency's (NSA) mass surveillance of Americans.
The coalition will hold a rally in Washington, D.C., on Oct. 26, 2013, on the 12th anniversary of the signing of the Patriot Act. Thousands of people from across the political spectrum are expected to unite in Washington, D.C., to demand: Stop watching us.
Speakers at the rally will include 2012 Libertarian presidential candidate Gov. Gary Johnson. A march before the rally, music, and other festivities are planned for the day.
Show your determination to stop government surveillance and come to Washington, D.C., on Oct. 26.
Would you blow your whistle on kleptocrats? Do you have a news tip, firsthand account of political corruption, or reliable information about a government foul-up? Please send your scoop to Basil Venitis at firstname.lastname@example.com for publication in http://venitism.blogspot.com
Stop Watching Us is a coalition of more than 100 public advocacy organizations and companies from across the political spectrum. We came together in June 2013 to demand the U.S. Congress investigate the full extent of the NSA's spying programs. Go here to read our letter to U.S. Congress demanding accountability and reform.

The girls wheel their helpless friend Hanna back into her home, where she'll be on bed rest for a few more days before returning to school. There, Hanna quickly discovers the wads of cash that Ashley's been hiding from her mini-heist, which her mother plays off as a "loan."
Elsewhere, Emily convinces her parents to have Maya over for dinner, and get to meet the girl who's won her heart in the hopes of melting Pam's. And Spencer's relationship with Alex is going well...until "A" sneakily submits Alex for a tennis summit in Sweden, causing a rift between the two. Meanwhile, back at school, Noel begins to use his knowledge of Ezra's clandestine relationship with Aria as a bargaining method for better grades.
Toby is released from jail due to insufficient evidence that he in fact killed Alison, but with one caveat: an ankle monitor, keeping him all too close to stepsister Jenna, who confesses that she turned him into the cops, not the girls.
Mona, feeling guilty for dumping Hanna the night she was hit, decides to throw her a surprise, welcome home party. Unfortunately, Hanna is clueless about the party and it doesn't turn out well. Not only does Noel show up... but Lucas drinks too much. He's still upset from Hanna refusing to be more than friends and makes a big scene. By the end of the party, Ashley's hidden loot is stolen with a note from "A" left behind. If Hanna wants her momma's money back, she's gonna have to earn it.
At the end of the episode, Spencer discovers a Hilton Head tag on Ian's luggage, clueing her in to the fateful summer before Ali disappeared where she spent time in the same location, at the same time.

I wonder when people are going to realize that cops aren't put on this earth to help you, they are put to work to create revenue so that they can pay their own salaries. There are some good cops but they are few and far between so any smart citizen knows better than to engage a cop in even a friendly conversation. The problem is positions as an officer of the law don't pay well so police positions rarely attract America's best and brightest, so you end up with more Farvas and Barney Fife types than you do Walker Texas Ranger types. It's sad but even in Fairhope the last person I'm calling if I need help is a cop.
thebernreuter why do you have such a loyalty to Mike Davis? He backed into the coach of the year award last year with the last of Mike Anderson's players. No matter what you or anyone else thinks the buck stops with Mike Davis. He has constantly under performed. We have been on a slow decline ever since Mike Anderson left. Anderson showed what could be done at a school like UAB and now Mike Davis has made everyone forget, you obviously have if you're defending the job he has done this season. He needs to be fired after this season, period end of discussion we deserve a better product than this.
Because none of you Bammers would have a job or our 2 Billion in Revenue to siphon towards your frat houses and athletic facilities without us.
Fairhope is eclectic; yes unfortunately Fairhope was exposed to a large influx of Snow birds when it landed on multiple "great place to retire" lists. But Fairhope has a lot of different people like artists of all types and families of all shapes and sizes. But yes Fairhope has a bad infestation of Yankee snow birds.
I agree secjohn86 but in the end the only thing that matter is W-L, and at a school that only has Basketball to cling to you better start out better than 1-4 with only 1 of the losses being excusable. I mean Tenn-Martin really???!!!! really??!!
Also I haven't thought Tim Kant has been a strong leader as mayor, but I am glad he is making me eat crow when it comes to his position on this issue. Good job Tim!
To many rich snow birds migrate to my home town because, on top of the mild climate, they all claim to supposedly "love" the welcoming blend of southern culture mixed with the art culture Fairhope posses; but at first sign of any form of art that's not sterile enough for (music loud enough to make you want to dance, art that includes nudes, etc etc...) their old folks home they think the city is theirs' to sterilize. FAIRHOPE IS A COMMUNITY BUILT ON THE ARTS, MUSIC INCLUDED DEAL WITH IT!! I wonder if Jimmy Buffet got a noise ordinance thrown at him the first time a local bar gave him 85 decibels plus to use to sing his songs about Mobile Bay.
Your going to the NIT Davis, but atleast you managed to complete your yearly check list:
Win 20 games to keep job: check
Blame it on everyone else when you don't go to the tourney: check
Fail at the conference tourney: check
Annual "Get UAB fans hopes up just to let them down" moment: check
Congratualtions coach Davis on another season of almost!!!
AJ we love you and everything you have given to this program, thanks for four great years!!! It was a pleasure to watch you become the best PG in the nation!
ECU is a horrible loss in the middle of March, everyone was already looking for a reason not to include us in the Big Dance, We have more impressive losing streaks than wins ex. Memphis, the first round of the conference tourney..., and that is why we will all be at Bartow in a couple of weeks cheering on AJ, booing Mike Davis, and praying that somehow we get a new BOTs.
Mike Davis is horrible, he does just enough to win the regular season title and keep his job but just like always loses when it matters. The only reason I'm even considering coming to any NIT games is to cheer on AJ, no matter what you say he deserves nothing but praise, and boo Mike Davis.
I hate Mike Davis, can we rehire Mike Anderson?
Mike Davis did enough to save his job again, congratulations Mike!! NIT here we come, at least they spared us the misery of losing to Memphis again. NIT NIT NIT NIT!!!
Wow, I knew Mike Davis had it in him, NIT here we come!!! Davis did just enough to save his job again....
Auburn is more than welcome to Davis he has out stayed his welcome with most UAB fans
Hudzilla, yes he should be gone this year but he won't because of what the team did at the start of the year. It sickens me that new UAB fans think Mike Davis's performance is acceptable, it's not he always lets you down.
I also think it is "interesting" that Mace didn't have the gumption to make these comments to Sledge before he passed, this article is classless.
I'm not going to say what I think about Mace's comments out of respect, but it sounds like his motivation is founded in the fact that he didn't have the idea as Sledge did to write down his experience and later create a manuscript from it. If you want to doubt the validity of Sledge's recollection you should remind yourself you are questioning the documenting of a scientist that never wanted any of the publicity just to document the truth for future generations. Maybe he should read the book to see how easy it was being a Mortar man. I'm really holding back here and if you doubt the brutality and the deaths check the record books. The writer of this article wouldn't know accurate good work if it slapped him in the face.
Mike Davis= 0 and 4 for NCAA, what a let down, he has to go!!!
If the inside would have been exposed our three point shots probably would have been better looks thatn they where. The sad thing is Davis did enough in the begining of the season to keep his job so they could lose out the rest of the season and he would still keep his job.

Tay-Sachs disease is a rare inherited disease. The most common form of this disease starts in infancy. Babies with this disease are born without an enzyme called Hexosaminidase A, or Hex A. This causes fatty proteins to build up and damage the baby's ability to see, hear, move, and develop.
Other forms of Tay-Sachs disease are very rare, and not as severe as the infantile form. Symptoms can appear in childhood, adolescence, or adulthood.
There is no cure for Tay-Sachs disease.
A baby can only have Tay-Sachs disease if both parents carry the gene that causes the disease. This gene is most common among certain ethnic groups, such as Ashkenazi Jews, French-Canadians, and Cajuns.
A baby born with Tay-Sachs develops normally for the first 3 to 6 months. After the first few months, the baby starts to lose the ability to see, hear, and move. The child will stop smiling, crawling, turning over, and reaching out for things. An eye exam can be done to check for a cherry-red spot at the back of the child's eye. By the age of 2, the child may have seizures and become blind, deaf, and paralyzed. Death usually occurs by the time the child is 5 years old.
Tay-Sachs disease is diagnosed through a blood test to check the level of Hex-A. A follow-up DNA test may be recommended.
Couples in the ethnic groups at risk for the disease can get screened for the Tay-Sachs gene with a simple blood test. Pregnant mothers can have their unborn babies screened for a lack of the enzyme that causes the disease. This can be done with chorionic villus sampling, or CVS, in which a small sample of the placenta is drawn into a needle or a small tube for analysis. A pregnant woman can also have amniocentesis, in which a needle is inserted into the mother's belly to draw a sample of amniotic fluid.
Medical care can help to relieve pain, manage seizures, and control other symptoms. There is no treatment that keeps the disease from getting worse.
In many cases, families are unable to care for a child with Tay-Sachs disease without help. In some cases, home healthcare may allow you to keep your child at home. In other cases, the best choice for your child may be a supervised living facility. Family counseling may help your family cope with your child's disorder.
For more information, contact the National Tay-Sachs & Allied Diseases Association at http://www.ntsad.org/index.php/tay-sachs or call 800-906-8723.

The Metrodome's days are numbered. The Minnesota stadium authority will shut it down, They're just not sure on the date.
"Although there is a question whether 2014 will still be maintained at the Metrodome. We don't quite know until we get the final design of the stadium," Michele Kelm-Helgen, Chairwoman of the Minnesota Stadium Authority said.
Events like the Monster Jam will be looking for a home. Kenna Conway who works with Monster Jam says, the events are responsible for finding their own venues.
"Hopefully they will have us back but right now we don't know where we are going on the hiatus," Conway said.
40,000 fans are expected at the Dome for Monster Jam. That's $130,000 in ticket sales. That does not include all the revenue generated at restaurants, parking, hotels and shopping.
The event also contributes to the Minneapolis economy by contracting with local businesses like the trucks that brought in all the dirt, the heavy lifters plus the 40 crushed vehicles that are brought in for the Monster Jam are from a local salvage company.
We found out a possible venue for Monster Jam may be the Xcel Energy Center. This afternoon a representative told us they would be delighted to have the event.

Since we got hacked a few months back, my life on a technical level has been a nightmare. It's taken months to begin to get the Tentmaker Site back on line and reformatted. The Tentmaker Resources section is still down, this blog has not been able to upload images — it's just been a nightmare for me for some time. I've been trying to get this WordPress blog program to load images for months and we haven't been able to figure out what has been the problem. We thought perhaps the hackers left behind some code that keeps messing things up. Well, it looks like Karen, (who has been working behind the scenes for years at Tentmaker keeping things moving along), got the techies at our hosting company to change some permissions that allowed images to appear again. Hopefully it won't corrupt again. So I tested the feature uploading an image from my computer to the image library on the server. Looking for a picture on my computer to test the uploading feature, I came across a picture of my son, Scott, who passed away almost 3 years ago. God, I miss him!!

Seeing you with your son, Scott, reminds me of how blessed I am to still have all of our children and grandchildren. Even though they live about 2.5 hours away all the more reason to keep them in our prayers and try to see them more often especially since we are not getting any younger. Paula and I are sorry for yours and Michelle's loss. What a tug on your heart to know that he is not with you in this life anymore. Only the Spirit of Christ can heal you of that overtime.
David Goodreau
Dear Gary,
First, thank you so much for all you have done and are doing for the Truth of the Glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ. It has been less than a year since I first heard of the Christian Universalist message (found Boyd Purcell website after a google search for help – have suffered with the fear of hell since about age 8 when I was immersed in the Roman Catholic theology and found pornography in my home and began to think I was a hopeless case – I am now 57 – from Dr. Purcell's info, I found Tentmaker, then Gerry Beauchemin, Charles Slagle, Thomas Talbott) and I am being slowly healed of almost fifty years of toxic theology.
This is a great picture of you and Scott. I can imagine the great pain of loss you and Michelle have been through. Yet, knowing the Truth as you do is a great comfort and knowing that there is an eternity in your future with Scott must bring some serious healing to a broken heart. I expect Scott is waiting for you to show you the best of heaven that he has already discovered.
I have a different loss I am dealing with. I was divorced several years ago and my son, Jonathan, has since decided he doesn't believe anymore. He was brought up in what I thought were really good churches at the time, but now realize he was exposed to a different version of the toxic theology that devastated my life. I feel like I have failed him and the emotional pain of that is really overwhelming at times. Believing the Truth certainly helps, but I pray with many tears that my son would be restored to our Savior and with correct understanding – Jesus, the Savior of ALL men, especially us who believe.
Thanks again, Gary – maybe Scott will invite me to join you on one of his tours of the best of heaven. That is something to look forward to with joyful hearts!

Hi Gary,
I am sorry for your loss of your son Scott.
In Christ,
PS – your article on Sundar Singh was very good
Florian Berndt
What a great picture! Having a son of my own I can not even comprehend how much you must miss him. There are simply no words one could say.

/ Mississippi River Basin Healthy Watersheds Initiative
Loading Tree...
Known as "America's River," the Mississippi River is North America's largest river, flowing over 2,300 miles through America's heartland to the Gulf of Mexico. It is the centerpiece of the second largest watershed in the world. The watershed not only provides drinking water, food, industry, and recreation for millions of people, it also hosts a globally significant migratory flyway and home for over 325 bird species.
Through the Mississippi River Basin Healthy Watersheds Initiative (MRBI), NRCS and partners work with producers and landowners to implement voluntary conservation practices that improve water quality, restore wetlands, enhance wildlife habitat and sustain agricultural profitability in the Mississippi River basin.
NRCS has identified the Mississippi River basin as a top priority due to water quality concerns, primarily related to the effects of nutrient loading on the health of local water bodies and, eventually, the Gulf of Mexico.
The 13-state initiative builds on the cooperative work of NRCS and its conservation partners in the basin, and offers agricultural producers in priority watersheds the opportunity for voluntary technical and financial assistance.
The participating States are Arkansas, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, South Dakota, Tennessee and Wisconsin.
Through MRBI, NRCS helps producers with voluntary conservation practices that conserve America's natural resources in high-priority watersheds while ensuring economic viability of cropland and rangeland.
Conservation practices installed by producers will serve to avoid, control and trap nutrient runoff, prevent erosion and provide essential wildlife habitat. These practices benefit the natural resources of the Mississippi Basin and enhance agricultural profitability through reduced input and enhanced soil health, which results in higher soil organic matter, increased infiltration and water-holding capacity and nutrient cycling.
More than 50 cities and 18 million people rely on the Mississippi River for their daily water supply. The Mississippi River is the main stem of a network of inland navigable waterways 12,350 miles in length.
NRCS is committed to working cooperatively with agricultural producers, partner organizations and state and local agencies to improve water quality and the quality of life for the tens of millions of people who live in and rely on the Mississippi River Basin.
Partners will play a crucial role in encouraging and supporting producer participation. Partners' involvement will be instrumental in a variety of ways, including:
Other opportunities to partner with NRCS include the Regional Conservation Partnership Program, a new program created by the 2014 Farm Bill to further emphasize the focus on building effective partnerships and obtaining meaningful results for key natural resource concerns. One of RCPP's critical conservation areas includes the Mississippi River Basin, directing additional funding to this region.

The 158th Washington County Fair began on Tuesday (Aug. 26) and thousands of locals came out to enjoy the food, rides and shows.
"All the stuff is amazing, the livestock, the horticulture, the photography…just seeing what all these kids do is amazing because I mean there's some talented kids in there," Connie Amos said.
Amos lives in Oklahoma and has come to the Washington County Fair for the last thirty years. She said she enjoyed the exhibits, arts and crafts and all of the opportunities for kids to get involved with the animals.
"Especially if they're from the city, a lot of these city kids don't know what some of this stuff is, and so it's giving them a different outlook on life," Amos said, "I mean there's more to life than just a fenced in little yard in your house."
Legend Kavanaugh, Alexis Fiorentineo and Abi Kelly showed livestock this week at the fair. They said they enjoyed the experience, but they were looking forward to the bull riding the most.
"It's kind of scary if the guys fall off because it kind of looks like the bulls are going to trample them," Fiorentineo said.
Other big attractions at this year's fair included mutton bustin'. Seven-year-old Lizzie Mabry said she was ready when the gates opened. The winner of the mutton bustin' competition received $15.
"I'm going to win this and I'm going to try my best," Mabry said.
Saturday night was Midnight Madness, so the fair was open until 2 a.m.

Comment 11 Jun 2012
I was there, I LOVED IT. My husband was a football coach, my son played college, and now is Coaching it at Dublin Sciota, I so much wanted to hit the pads, run the courses, and of course I brought down Coach Vrable, didn't mean to, but did. Met so many different people and I am getting a team together for next year, watch out. It was an experience I will never forget. I think maybe, we should all do the drill that Coach Marotti taught us with the football team at halftime at one of the games this season with our special Women's Football Clinic Shirts on to promote for next year. What do you say Monique Drayton???? Thanks for the experience

[ This message was posted to the OS/2 2.0 beta test message board on IBM's BBS. OS/2 introduced a new interface called the Workplace Shell that many people did not like very much. One problem that the configuration of every little thing -- except for the things you really cared about -- could be changed radically. Another problems was that the interface often went against industry conventions. For example, running a program by clicking its icon caused the icon to disappear from its folder. When the program finished running, the icon reappeared in the folder. While there is a sort of logic to that (and other aspects of the interface), many people found it difficult to use. Richard Hodges found it so difficult to use, in fact, that he claims to have had the following nightmare. ]

A little dream that came after seeing the Workplace Shell.
I started dreaming about driving a car in which all of the controls on the dashboard are stuck on with magnets. Nothing is physically attached. Some of the controls are kept in the glove compartment, and some are actually in a box inside the glove compartment. Even the steering wheel column can move every which way. You can drive from the middle of the front seat if you want. Occasionally, you hit a bump and the controls shift around, maybe a few fall on the floor.
Sometimes, I pull the headlight switch out of the box in the glove compartment and after I turn on the lights, the switch disappears! I open the glove box, then open the little box - and it magically returned! I can make it stay on the dashboard, but then my owner's manual, screwdriver, Kleenex box and everything else in the glove compartment starts piling up on the dashboard.
If I look at the speedometer it gets very large and I can't see anything else on the dashboard. Maybe sometimes I can see something. Everything can be changed except that the gearshift is on the left instead of the right. That cannot be changed.

NUJ members have voted overwhelmingly to take industrial action against compulsory redundancies at the BBC. A number of members were at risk at Pacific Quay in Glasgow, but it is believed that deals have been struck, which are mutually acceptable. Other jobs facing the chop are in the BBC World Service and the union is calling for management to take a similar position to that of their Scottish counterparts and negotiate away from the threat of an all-out strike.
A mass meeting of The Daily Record & Sunday Mail chapel has voted unanimously to ballot for industrial action against the threat of compulsory redundancies. Because of legal deadlines of British employment law, the chapel had to give management seven days notice of their intention to ballot before the introduction of a selection process due to begin in two weeks time.
Despite the union having provided a list of nearly 50 potential redundancies and salary savings, it is not enough for MD Mark Hollinshead. Now management appear bent on moving towards selecting individuals for compulsory redundancy, to achieve their target of 70 job cuts.
Chapel officers are continuing to take part in the consultation process and are looking at proposed rotas and shift patterns. However it is believed that the first viewing has led to widespread consternation, with great concern at the levels of unsociable shifts being suggested.
The ballot papers will be sent out by Electoral Reform Society and should be arriving on members' doorsteps from Friday onwards, with a week to vote and return papers. Members are asked: a) not to throw the envelopes in the bin; b) don't put them in the company internal mail system; c) to vote and return by the deadline.
The Scottish Organiser met with Editor in Chief, Donald Martin and HR Manager Carole Mason on Friday evening to discuss a range of complaints. The grievances emanated from last week's union surgery to review the new contracts being offered to around 210 NUJ members. It is believed that a number of individuals have rejected the new offers and are seeking redundancy pay, while others are considering other options.
It appears to have been a relatively contructive meeting with some movement on behalf of a number of members. Areas where there was some progress included; agreeing flexibility on hours for some people with caring responsibilities; movement on some individuals' status and responsibilities.
It was agreed to let the system bed in for a couple of weeks before re-visiting the concerns about shifts and long hours.
Another major concern among many staff is the lack of movement into the "pay bands" with management claiming there is a clampdown on spending including restrictions on signing off payments over £100. It doesn't look likely that money will be readily provided to address what appear to be dozens of anomalies.
This is a growing concern for the NUJ with an increasing number of companies facing serious cash flow difficulties because of falling revenues.
The main newspaper publisher in the Highlands are not exempt from falling ad-revenues and are looking for members who might consider voluntary redundancies. However MD Roy Fox has told the NUJ Scottish Organiser that he is concerned that too many job cuts could damage editorial quality and is taking a cautious approach to editorial redundancies.
At least the politicians are now realising the problems facing the industry and the Scottish Affairs Committee have invited a number of leading figures to a hearing on March 31. Among those invited are Mark Hollinshead, Trinity MD, Donald Martin Editor in Chief, Newsquest and Paul Holleran NUJ Scottish Organiser.
12.03.09 12:55
Newsquest chapel members demanded action against the latest attacks on their pay and conditions. Over 60 members attended a union surgery to discuss wide-ranging grievances with their new contracts. The issues ranged from unfair use of the pay bands; new shifts and rotas which are far from family friendly; crazy appointments including demotions and promotions; longer hours with no breaks; data protection and many others complaining about the changes in the contracts in general including the drop in holidays and worse sickpay scheme.
Discussion was lively over the potential for individual and collective legal action and the ball started rolling on setting up a new chapel committee and reps.
There was much hilarity as members related their experiences of the new regime and the shambles of trying to get papers out on time at the end of a chaotic shift. However there were serious concerns as to the long hours being worked by some of the senior staff. Others reported on things such as the attempt to put reporting rotas together, including a suggestion by someone who should know better that if they work through their lunch everyday then he would TRY and give them every third Tuesday off in lieu.
Scottish Organiser, Paul Holleran has a meeting with management on Friday afternoon to raise the grievances and see if some of the worst excesses can be re-negotiated before we end up in court.
It appears that ACAS have been called in by management to see if the union is prepared to negotiate settlements on behalf of a number of members seeking redress at tribunals. This is a new approach and we await the initial talks with interest.
The NUJ have invited all their members at Newsquest in Glasgow to attend an all-day surgery to discuss their new contracts and working conditions.
The event will be held in the Holiday Inn (Theatreland) West Nile St. from 9am until 6pm. The union office has been inundated with calls and emails from members, concerned about a host of issues relating to the new contracts.
Scottish Organiser, Paul Holleran met with management on Tuesday morning to register a range of general complaints. However due to traffic problems in the Glasgow area the management team was a bit depleted. Another meeting is planned for Friday afternoon and Paul expects to have a longer list of issues to raise with the Editor-in-Chief and HR manager.
Meanwhile the Daily Record & Sunday Mail chapel are meeting again on Friday afternoon to discuss the progress of consultation over threatened redundancies and merging of titles. The union officers turned up for a meeting this morning only find that their counterpart was in London.
Paul was a bit more successful at his next meeting at BBC Scotland, where some progress was made in talks with managers, about individual cases. However the ballot papers for industrial action will be counted within the next seven days and strike action is on the cards in the fight against compulsory redundancies.
The Scottish Organiser is such a nice guy, we hope the absent managers aren't trying to give him a bodyswerve as there is much to discuss (to say the least).
The union is backing members who are refusing to accept the new contracts being offered by Newsquest. A growing number of staff are contacting the NUJ officials to demand action against the wide range of complaints about pay bands, new shift patterns and demotions among other things.
Rumours are also rife that Newsquest are about to make another interesting offer to staff. It appears they want people to accept a pay cut of around 2.5 hours a week or take a "furlough", which is a North American phrase for a week off without pay.
This is particularly interesting given that Newsquest staff in the Donald Martin Madhouse are already being asked to work another 2.5 hours a week as part of their new contractual paradise.
Have they ever heard of "the straw that broke the camel's back"?
In the meantime the union officers will be meeting with Trinity management on Friday morning to discuss progress on the restructure/redundancy talks. Monday diary page will be dominated by BBC Scotland talks as members wait for ballot papers against compulsory redundancies. Scotsman Publications restructuring talks start again midweek.
The Chinese proverb or curse "May you live in interesting times" was obviously aimed at the NUJ Scottish office 2009.

I have only just received this product but having taken other more expensive enzymes in the past these appear to be just as effective. I am very pleased with these especially for the reasonable price. I have worked for two of Dublin's top health stores for 10 years and am now a holistic practitioner. I hope you found this review helpful.

This is a lovely new restaurant, in a neighborhood that doesnt have a lot of good japanese restaurants. The food is very good and pretty authentic. Only problem was that our waiter wasn't able to explain anything on the menu and mixed up the order somewhat. But with time, I think service may improve.
Posted by susan w. on 09/10/2013
This new Japanese restaurant is close to Broadway, but enough hidden (down a few steps) that it doesn't get much traffic. The food is really delicious, fresh, and reasonably priced. The service is attentive. I've had a number of the rolls and they were all excellent, but so far the best dish I've had is the Chicken Teriyaki, which is more modern than traditional. It's so good (with a grain, roast potatoes and vegetables) that I could eat it several times a week. A friend was raving about the Arctic Char, must try that soon. I recommend.

Sprint CEO Dan Hesse triggered a rally in the wireless telco sector after he declared at a Goldman Sachs conference today that the industry is headed for a period of consolidation.
"I do think there will be consolidation," he said. "I would hope and expect that over the long term Sprint will take a very active role in that." As Bloomberg notes, Hesse said Sprint could potentially do two types of deals. One would be a large-scale transaction to gain bulk to better compete with AT&T and Verizon. The other would be smaller and offer quicker cost benefits and synergies.
The remark spurred Sprint shares higher, and also gave a boost to Clearwire, MetroPCS and Leap Wireless – the most likely targets (along with Deutsche Telekom's T-Mobile unit) of any future consolidation in the sector.
In today's trading:
- Clearwire rose 18 cents, or 13%, to $1.56.
- Sprint rallied 37 cents, or 71%, to $5.56.
- MetroPCS gained 56 cents, or 5.2%, to $11.30.
- Leap rose 11 cents, or 1.7%, to $6.56.
- AT&T and Verizon posted fractional gains.

Recipe by Chef John
"If you don't cook fish often, or don't like fish, this broiled red snapper recipe may be just what the doctor ordered. Normally we don't want to cover up the delicate flavors of the seafood, but in this case, we have no choice. It's not like you can't tell you're eating fish, but close enough."

2 tablespoons

1 tablespoon
barbeque sauce

red snapper fillets
salt to taste
cayenne pepper, or to taste
This was pretty good, I would have liked stronger flavors, perhaps garlic?
This is the first time trying this recipe, I had bought some red snapper wanted another way to cook it The recipe was quick and easy to make. My family enjoyed it, I think I was heavy handed on cayenne though, but still tasty
11 Ratings
I used this recipe on a combo of white trout & speckled trout that we caught off of our dock. It was delicious! Our son who does not like fish said that since we will eat fish again he would like it to be made like this recipe and that he prefers this recipe over fried fish. My husband loved the sauce and kept heaping it on. Our other son ate fish until the pan was empty. It was a huge hit at our house. I had some very spicy homemade BBQ sauce on hand that I used and I put a little extra BBQ in the sauce for extra flavor. I do not like my food to be mouth burning so I substituted smoked paprika for the cayenne. The fish turned out wonderfully moist and flavorful.
This recipe was too sweet and too blah for our taste.
This was the best snapper recipe I have tried. Very moist. Really flavorful. This was a hit in our house in would make this again.

Galileo: Applications for road transport
Intelligent transport systems for road transport is the second most important segment of the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) market taking nearly half of it in revenues. The GNSS consumer market in the road sector has really exploded in the last 5 years with more than 60% per year of growth and prices declining. It is still growing rapidly with vehicles to be equipped with a navigation device passing from one third of the market now to nearly 90% in 2020.
GNSS applications in road transport cover much more than in-car navigation: for instance, road user charging with GNSS-based toll collection systems allows a more efficient use of the road infrastructure, reducing both traffic and environmental effects; fleet management and logistics can also benefit from the accuracy brought by EGNOS today and tomorrow by Galileo, by locating in real-time, trucks, buses, taxis, etc. This helps optimise resources, better fleet management and reduces time and fuel consumption.
The eCall programme makes also use of GNSS positioning to implement an automatic in-vehicle emergency call system allowing emergency services to remotely locate vehicles after an accident.
The European Commission contributes to raising awareness among road stakeholders of such technologies and demonstrates the benefits of using EGNOS with a contract aiming at assessing technical and business opportunities offered by EGNOS for road charging and tracking and tracing of persons and goods.
The European Commission will also investigate the possibility of amending EU legislation to benefit from the capabilities brought by GNSS, such as for the monitoring of dangerous goods or long-range coaches, or to be used inside chronotachograph systems (that records the driving and rest times of professional drivers) to improve road safety and ensure fair competition.
With a combination of electronic identification and location of the vehicle, new applications may emerge such as accident reconstruction or anti-theft systems. The European Commission is also investigating the field of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (systems aimed at assisting the driver, examples include collision avoidance systems, intelligent speed adaptation, lane departure warning systems, etc…) using integrity and authentication capabilities brought by Galileo, by coordinating the action for the establishment of a European certification body.

Judge: injunction to halt coliseum demolition still good
But city says appeals court ruling allows continued work
CORPUS CHRISTI - The city of Corpus Christi is moving forward with the demolition of Memorial Coliseum despite a judge's statement Monday that an injunction still is in effect.
County Court-at-Law Judge James Klager said his order halting demolition remains valid until the 13th Court of Appeals issues a mandate.
"My ruling stands until I get the mandate," he said.
Mandates typically are issued by the appeals court after the appellate process has been exhausted.
But City Attorney Carlos Valdez said the appeals court ruling last week that reversed Klager's injunction is enough for the city to continue demolition.
"We're going by the (13th) Court of Appeals," he said. "It's as simple as that."
Kathy Snapka, an attorney for Friends of the Coliseum, a group trying to preserve the coliseum, said the organization is considering its legal options. Those option include asking the appeals court for a rehearing or petitioning the Texas Supreme Court to take up the matter, she said.
The group has 15 days from the appeals court's May 6 opinion to ask for a rehearing.
Snapka said the city clearly is violating the Klager's order.
"The injunction is in effect until a mandate is issued," Snapka said.
Snapka had argued for a new temporary restraining order to keep demolition crews from working during the appellate process.
Klager made no ruling on that issue because he said his original injunction still was good.
Since Friday, workers have been at the site clearing out asbestos, one of the first steps in the demolition process. Demolishing the coliseum could take 90 to 100 days.
The structural demolition is set to begin Friday, which would include tearing down exterior walls, A&R Demolition Project Manager Vernon Carr said.
That's one day before the Texas Historical Commission's state review board is set to discuss the coliseum's application for listing on the National Register of Historic Places.
The board will decide if it meets the architectural and historical significance required for listing.
But commission officials have said a building that is partially demolished and no longer structurally sound won't be listed.
The designation also wouldn't protect the building from demolition, but could pave the way for federal and state grant funding for renovation.

How difficult was the switch, really? (serious question -- not trying to be sarcastic)
Since lots of things are *different*, I'm betting that there were certain challenges, right? Some things that you found difficult, or frustrating? Any old PC habits that were hard to break?
I'm sure you recent switchers know what I'm getting at. Any comments or thoughts you can share would be appreciated.
Oh, and please don't say "Windows sucks" or anything like that. It really doesn't help me. Thanks. :-)

Ive used windows right from 3.1 so used keyboard shortcuts 90% of the time so i had to learn the new ones.
The other thing that was a bit difficult was that there was no "run" command which i overcame by using Quicksilver
Lastly the only thing that bothered me was downloading apps but once you know where to look (versiontracker) i was fine no other real problems TBH

There are some things you'll have to relearn. For example navigating finder can be really clumsy at times, so that will be the one thing you'll have to learn.
I've noticed that since switching to OSX I use keyboard shortcuts to do stuff more often and it really cuts time. I guess you can say that this operating system while being easy to use for average users, can also be extremely efficient for advanced users.
My first impressions:
I unpacked the box, hooked everything up and turned it on. Nothing special. Now generally when I buy a PC i like to reformat it fresh. Just an old Windows/Dell habit i suppose. Anyway, I popped in the cd, and in about 3 or 4 mouse clicks, the computer was on its way to a fresh install of Tiger. During that time a friend called me to pick him up, and laughed all the way to his house. Easy as pie. Even funnier was my trying to relearn 'drag and drop.' I felt so stupid because i didn't know how to do a few things, and i would ask people and they would be like, "just click here, and drag it there" and i nearly died of laughter. It really is how computing 'should be.'
After thoughts: I've had it for nearly a year, no problems, no spam/adware and no antivirus. tis very good.

Funny thing is now when I use my XP systems, I go for the Alt key and try to click on the Left hand side to close or minimize a window!!! hhahahah
Seriously though, I can go back and forth between XP and OSX most of the time without even thinking. I was confortable with OSX after say 1-2 hours usage. VERY EASY to learn. I have been running XP Pro since the first week it came out.

-Getting used to the idea of zooming my windows rather than maximizing them (This gets much better as you learn to use Expose)
-Losing my paranoia when it came to installing most applications simply by dragging the app into the Applications folder (and vice-versa for uninstalling them)
-Getting used to applications usually being in dmgs when downloaded; I never had to use disk images much on Windows.
-At the beginning it feels like you're using your mouse way too much, but as you get better you'll learn the extensive keyboard shortcuts in OS X.
-The lack of the Start Menu absolutely killed me the first two weeks. Spotlight helps alleviate this though, since now I only keep my frequently used apps in the Dock and rely on the very efficient Spotlight for everything else. As a temporary solution until you get used to it, though, press Shift-Command-A while in Finder to open the Applications Folder in a new window. Better yet, put the Applications folder in your Dock so you can just click it there.
-The three buttons being at the top-left of the window rather than the top-right, along with the skewing of the desktop to the right rather than the left like on Windows.
-Getting used to closing windows without quitting the applications
-Playing back my video files in a very enjoyable manner is something I fine tuned up until a few weeks ago. I can share my secrets to success with you if you so desire.
I'd say that about covers it. It usually helps to bring a safety blanket of some kind with you. For me, that was using Firefox as my default browser until I learned to appreciate Mac multitasking, which Firefox seems to be opposed to with its zoom button that acts like a maximize button. The memory efficiency could also be better on Firefox. That said, here are some applications that are essential:
-Adium (http://www.adiumx.com) is the best instant messaging application I have ever used. It is very changeable and supports a ridiculous number of instant messaging clients. And it's freeware based on libGaim.
-VLC (http://www.videolan.org) is a free media player that plays every file type out there except the Real Player files (download Real Player if you just as well) and the WMV files specifically encoded with the WMV3 codec. It plays DVDs also, by the way. Anyway, for those pesky WMVs...
-Flip4mac (http://www.flip4mac.com) is a set of Quicktime components that enables WMV playback in Quicktime Player. It's nifty, and since Microsoft stopped supporting Windows media Player 9 for mac, they generously paid off the Flip4mac team to offer it for free.
-Stuffit Expander (http://www.stuffit.com) will be essential if you want to uncompress anything, and pretty much every app you download will be in a disk image in a compressed file. make sure you get just Stuffit Expander, the free one.
There are also a couple of other things about Media playback in particular I can teach you how to do, like get Quicktime to play in fullscreen (though you can accomplish this with iTunes f you so desire). If you ever find need for those, just ask me. Congrats on the jump.

I'm still scared to death. Scared of the unknown... scared of leaving my comfort zone... and (frankly) scared that after making the switch I'll find that it's not really *that* much of a benefit over Windows, and realize I've made a huge financial mistake.
But, I'm getting closer... much closer. We'll see what happens. :-)

Mac Specs: i dont have no mac's
dmg's (aka disk images)...for example you download firefox, it will come within a disk image that will mount on your desktop, it will look like a white hard drive...inside it will be your firefox application...in order to install it you simply drag the firefox icon to your applications folder
you hit the red x your program does not close. simple as thathitting the red x in the top left of a window closes the window and only the window. to close the program you go to the menubar and select the program name and then click 'quit (program name)'. or you hit command+q
just take the jump....pick up a b&w powermac g3 just to test the waters, you can find them for like 200+ship...
hope everthing i typed was helpful and correct, my eyes are closing from being so tired

No, I don't have an outdoor bread oven. I've been getting good results with a large baking stone. I've seen portable outdoor wood ovens (Laurello's Vineyards makes pizza in one). Zingerman's Bakehouse might also be able to point you in the right direction (ask for Alejandro, as he led the class that built an indoor wood oven for the Zingerman's baking classes). Good luck!
It was a toss-up between making jam and making pie. Certainly jam would have lasted a little longer!

How To Get 1,000 Free Sheets of Printer Paper: Request Someone's File From U.S. Immigration
Categories: Follow That Story

|Five inches of blank pages! Thanks, federal government!
And what a response we got! No less than 1,102 pages of documentation were identified as relevant. However, citing privacy rules, the feds withheld 1,063 of these pages, or 96.4 percent, of the file. BUT THEY STILL SENT ALL THE BLANK PAGES.
We don't fault USCIS for adhering to rules protecting an individual's privacy. In fact, we expected them to do so. But mailing us 1,063 blank pages, apparently at taxpayer expense, does nobody any good. Except in one respect: we might be using them for printer paper. So thanks, in a way, to Uncle Sam!

"We are excited to add Amanda to the Georgia Bulldog Volleyball family," Stemke said. "Amanda is one of the top volleyball players in our state and our region and we are thrilled she will continue her studies and volleyball career here in her home state."
As a senior, Dachs was a Senior All Star selection and was named an Under Armour All-American Honorable Mention. As one of the top players in the 2013 class, she was named to the PrepVolleyball Frosh 59 and was also named to the PrepVolleyball Senior Aces 150.
A first team All-State selection, Dachs was named the Area 7 Region Player of the Year and was a Georgia Gatorade Player of the Year Candidate. She finished her high school season ranked first in the State AAAAA classification in kills with 523, in kills per game, averaging 5.0 and holds 17 top-10 school records.
In addition to her career at Northview, Dachs is a member of the A5 club team where she was named the MVP of the 2011 Junior National Championships.
Dachs is the former teammate of Georgia sophomore Gaby Smiley.

Inside, the transformation from Romanesque nave to early Gothic choir is visible even under the heavy greens and golds of nineteenth-century paintwork. In the choir, the marble columns of the middle triforium level date from an even earlier church on this site, which was erected in the sixth century and housed the remains of the Merovingian kings. The last chapel on the south side houses the tomb of the philosopher René Descartes. In the corner of the churchyard, by rue Bonaparte, a little Picasso head of a woman is dedicated to the memory of the poet Apollinaire.

I'm happy because I had chance to ride a Icelandic horse for the first time on Sunday. A friend of mine own one and she let me ride
her horse. They are wonderful and so kind horses. I plan here that I maybe in the future buy a Icelandic horse. I just loved to ride
the horse.
I am happy and incredibly relieved that things ended on a positive note last night! Thank you, Lord. Your Will be done.
Because I just a gift of $150 bucks, so now I can pay my car insurance and take my wife and daughters out for a fun family date.
Wooohooo, I am happy as I've just bought the cutest little dress that one of our TV Presenters was wearing this morning. I thought it would be far too expensive for little ole me to buy but it was only £69 ($108). Bargain. Hopefully I will look cute in it also.
TWO books by Uncle Steve next year!
Need a better reason to be happy?
