DEER TALES: The 'Polish Condominium Deer Stand'The stand stands out, and so does its name. It's been called the "Polish Condominium Deer Stand." Not only has it held a hunter or two, but years ago, it also held hundreds of chickens.
Sylvester "Syl" Duray, who farmed all of his life near Warsaw, N.D., wasn't a hunter, but deer season was — and still is — a tradition for family members and friends who gather on the land. Duray was 90 when he died last Nov. 12, and one of his children, who wishes to remain nameless ("the story's about the land — not me") penned this article about a deer stand on the family property.
In this Polish community near Warsaw, N.D., you will find many deer stands as you drive along the country roads, but few are more unique than this one.
The stand stands out, and so does its name. It's been called the "Polish Condominium Deer Stand." Not only has it held a hunter or two, but years ago, it also held hundreds of chickens.
The chicken coop is from the late Sylvester Duray's farmstead. The neighborhood hunters mounted it on an old combine that was used to thresh grain years back.
The deer stand is nestled in a grove of trees by the family farm. The building may have moved, its use may have changed and the combine no longer runs, but the deer stand remains on the prairie as a monument, of sorts, to a different time.
Today, most of the farmsteads are empty, places once inhabited by Polish neighbors, families with names such as — to name just a few —Ebertowski, Popowski, Gerszewski, Slominski, Babinski, Lizakowski, Perkernoicv, Grabinski, Osowski and Grembowski.
These Polish settlers passed down their land. They made a way so their descendants could hunt on the land today.
For us who remain, it's not about the hunt so much as it is about the land we hunt.
Now as then, we also have the gorgeous sunsets that stretch across the prairie sky — beauty for all of us to share.
And we all know who to thank for that.

Former Gov. Mark Sanford said when the 1st Congressional District seat he once held was vacated by Tim Scott's appointment to the U.S. Senate, he did not expect to seek it.
"For all the obvious reasons, I thought my time in politics was over," he said.
Those obvious reasons include the way his second gubernatorial term ended, specifically the scandal he created when he left the country in 2009. His staff said he was hiking the Appalachian Trail, but Sanford was actually meeting his mistress in Argentina.
The incident helped end his marriage to Jenny Sanford, the woman who helped guide his political career and led to scrutiny of his travels and his payment of a record $74,000 ethics fine.
But Sanford said once the seat opened up, he got calls from several people, including his old friend and ally, Sen. Tom Davis, R-Beaufort, urging him to run.
"You were talking about debt and deficit spending in Washington 15 years ago when people weren't really focusing on it," Sanford recalled Davis telling him.
As a three-term congressman from 1995-2001, Sanford did not get many bills passed but developed a reputation as a taxpayer hero for his opposition to federal spending and his concern over the stability of entitlement programs such as Social Security. He even slept
"You were talking about debt and deficit spending in Washington 15 years ago when people weren't really focusing on it," Sanford recalled Davis telling him.
As a three-term congressman from 1995-2001, Sanford did not get many bills passed but developed a reputation as a taxpayer hero for his opposition to federal spending and his concern over the stability of entitlement programs such as Social Security. He even slept in his office to save money.
Sanford said he agreed to run again because he feels the nation is at "an incredible tipping point" if it doesn't rein in its debt.
Sanford has been accused of running "an apology tour" on his current campaign, but he also has described how his downfall has an upside.
"Part of what I bring is a newfound level of humility that I think is absolutely vital in forming relationships and having conversations in a place like Washington, D.C.," he said. "One of the reasons things don't get done in Washington is everybody is so absolutely certain of their viewpoint they're not going to listen to somebody else's viewpoint."
"I have my deficiencies, and they're all laid out now, but I also have my strengths," he added, "and one of them has been conviction."
Those strengths also include an in-depth knowledge of issues and a polished speaking style acquired during his six years in Washington, as well as his eight years in Columbia.
He is campaigning on his record as governor, including his backing the first cut in the state's marginal income tax rate, his being the nation's first governor to turn back federal stimulus dollars and his support of preserving rural land through the state's new conservation bank.
While Sanford backed term limits his first time, he now is pointing out that he would have more seniority than 60 percent of current GOP congressmen if his three earlier terms are counted. That could pay off in terms of committee assignments, he noted.
If elected, Sanford said he would tackle the debt by addressing entitlements — where most of the federal spending is. He said he favors moving to a block grant system for Medicaid and changing Medicare along the lines of U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan's plan and using individual retirement accounts.
He has been received politely by voters on the campaign trail, though opponents have taken more shots at him than any others in the 16-candidate field.

2-way File Sharing?
I have a MacBook Pro and an iMac - both with the latest versions of Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5.2). Both are connected to the internet via wireless network.
I can connect my MacBookPro with the iMac, but if the same strategy is applied the the iMac I get an error message. "The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "afp://192/168.1.64/" could not be read or written. (error code -36).
The MacBookPro connects to the iMac, no problem - what do I need to change on my MacBookPro to give my iMac access?
Sounds like a read/write permission. On the 'Book, go to System Preferences, Sharing and look at the folder you want the iMac to see. Sometimes the confusion is with user names, make sure that they match.
Oh, and welcome aboard!
1 Attachment(s)
Hi Sherman, that's indeed what the error message indicates.
But that's apparently not the case. I have attached the print screen of my File Sharing menu. Everyone has read & write permissions
Oh and thanks for the quick response and welcoming. Got a faster response from you than from the official Apple Support forum...
By the way, the iMac does not give me the possibility of entering a username and password - as the Book does

A shark is equipped with an extraordinary array of sensors, probably the most diverse of any known predator. Low-frequency sounds tend to travel great distances underwater, so a shark's auditory system could be the first sense to pick up an interesting target. Rapid, irregularly-pulsed, broad-band sounds at frequencies below 600 hertz, similar to those made by injured prey or a group of spawning fish can alert a hunter such as a bull shark from over 1.6 km (1 mile) away.
At a distance of 0.5 km (1/3 mile), it is able to smell blood in the water and follow a trail back to the source. It can detect one part of fish extract in 25 million parts of seawater, the equivalent of ten drops of blood in an average-sized municipal swimming pool. At 100 m (330 ft), the shark's lateral line system kicks in. This row of fluid-filled sensory canals on either side of its body responds to pressure changes and movements, so a shark can almost feel the presence and location of something moving in the water--a kind of 'touch-at-a-distance.'
At 25m (82 ft) in relatively clear water, the shark can spot movements. It can see even in very dim light, for sharks, like domestic cats, have a tapetum lucidum, a layer of shiny plates behind the retina at the back of the eye that reflects light back onto the retina's light sensitive cells. It ensures that the maximum amount of available light falls on the retina, enabling the animal to see almost in the dark. In sharks, the tapetum can be masked. A curtain of melanin-filled cells, known as melanoblasts, migrates into channels that cover the reflective plates. Using this, a shark is able to rise rapidly from the dimly-lit depths into the bright light of surface waters without being blinded. Not all sharks have the screening--deep-sea sharks have a tapetum but no melanoblasts, an adaptation to a world of inky darkness where the only light is often from bioluminescent fish and other marine creatures.
The most extraordinary sensory system is one that discerns electricity. In the snouts of most sharks are small, jelly-filled pits, known as the ampullae of Lorenzini, and in each pit is a sensor that detects minute electric fields associated with contracting muscles, such as those in a pumping heart. The system is remarkably sensitive. A shark is able to detect a change in intensity of a hundred-millionth of a volt per centimetre, the equivalent of a flashlight battery creating a field between two electrodes set 1600 km (1000 miles) apart. In this way, a shark is able to detect muscular activities in its prey, even if the target is hiding under the sand or gravel of the sea bed.
Hammerhead sharks of the genus Sphyrna have their electrical sensors spread across the width of their curiously shaped heads. By sweeping its head from side to side, like a person with a metal detector, a hammerhead is able to scan a larger area of the sea floor and more accurately locate any flatfish, skates or rays buried in the sand. The great white shark uses its electrical sense not for locating prey but in the moment just before contact. In order to protect its eyes from the claws or teeth of seals and sea lions, it swivels them back into special sockets and is effectively swimming blind. The electrical field generated by the seal's muscles guides the shark the last few centimetres to its target.
Having taken a bite out of its victim, a shark may then use its sense of taste to determine its palatability. Taste receptors are located on swellings in the mouth and gullet, and it is with these that a shark decides whether to swallow or spit. Great whites sometimes spit out human flesh. They prefer animals that are insulated with a thick layer of high-energy fat, and even the most obese amongst us do not have sufficient blubber to interest a great white. So as long as a major artery is not severed and there is not too much loss of blood, some attack victims at least survive an assault by an extremely powerful predator that is quite capable of biting us in half and swallowing the pieces whole.
A blue shark employs its integrated sensory system to detect and then feed on a shoal of anchovies near San Diego, California, on the Pacific coast of the USA. (Image: Richard Hermann/Seapics.com)
While a tiger shark, the ocean's garbage collector, will take a chunk out of virtually anything, including humans, most other sharks prefer to eat fish, squid, crabs and lobsters, sea urchins and marine worms, eating whatever is abundant locally. The diet of populations of smoothhounds of the genus Mustelus of Tomales Bay on the US Atlantic coast, for example, is determined by which part of the bay an individual lives in. Those near Hogg Island seek out slender crabs and small fish, while others at Indian Beach feast on yellow shore crabs and polychaete worms.
Some shark species have a preference for particular foods. Australia's sicklefin weasel shark is an octopus specialist, while the great hammerhead has a penchant for stingrays--and an unusual way of catching them. It pins them down using the front of its head, and then turns rapidly to take a chunk out of the ray's 'wing.' The immobilised ray is unable to escape, so the shark can take leisurely bites out of its quivering body until it has swallowed the lot. One individual was seen to have 96 stingray barbs stuck in its head--surely a world record.
When food is concentrated, such as a whale carcass or a tightly packed shoal of fish or squid, many sharks must feed together and, while feeding frenzies (when sharks bite at anything and everything including others of their own kind) have been initiated by artificial feeding, in the wild there is some degree of order amongst diners. There are rules in shark society. Generally, small sharks defer to large sharks, but there is more to it than that.
Baby sharks receive little or no parental care when they enter their perilous underwater world, so shark mothers ensure they receive a good start in life before they are born. Unlike some bony fish that produce millions of eggs and larvae that are left to the mercy of the sea, sharks produce relatively few eggs and embryos (in most species less than 100) and protect them well. They do so in one of two ways: by protecting their embryos within egg cases that are deposited somewhere safe; or by retaining their embyros inside the body.
The more primitive system is oviparity, meaning 'born from an egg', which is adopted by the dogfish, the nursehound, the swell shark and the Port Jackson shark. Each of their eggs is enclosed in a tough capsule known as a 'mermaid's purse.' Other species are viviparous, meaning 'live birth'. The embryos develop in the uterus (a shark's uterus is divided into two branches), and obtain their nourishment directly or indirectly from their mother. A hammerhead shark embryo, for example, relies on a yolk sac for food at first but later the sac begins to grow branches that fasten to the uterine wall, like a placenta, and extract nutrients directly from the mother's blood system. The most bizarre form of viviparity must be that of the sand tiger shark. When the embryos have used up their yolk sac they take to eating each other. Two dominant babies eventually survive, one in each uterus, and they are fed yolk-rich unfertilised eggs until the two intra-uterine cannibals are born.
Great white sharks, for example, were once thought to be solitary nomads but it is now recognised that they are probably more social animals showing complex relationships with other individuals. Pairs or small groups of sharks of roughly the same sex and age return to the same area each year. Off the Farallon Island, to the west of San Francisco, two recognisable females, known to local shark researchers as 'The Sisterhood', always turn up in the same patch of sea each winter to stake out the breeding rookeries of northern elephant seals and California sea lions. They arrive at the same time, patrol the same bays and are present at each other's kills. They appear to communicate not with sounds, as whales and dolphins do, but with a body language of movements and postures. This behaviour is shown dramatically by another species, the grey reef shark.
Grey reef sharks patrol the drop-off into deep water at the edge of coral reefs and atolls, and they have a clear way of expressing their displeasure. When approached too closely, a shark will perform a distinctive threat display accompanied by exaggerated swimming movements. Its back is arched, its pectoral fins point downwards and its snout is raised with its jaws slightly open. It swims in a rather stiff and awkward fashion following a figure-of-eight loop. If the perceived threat fails to back down, the shark then attacks, slashing at the offender with the teeth in its upper jaw. The Galapagos shark and silky shark perform similar threat displays. The bonnethead, blacknose shark and great white shark have been seen to adopt the arched body and raised snout posture, but do not swim so erratically as the grey reef shark. These revelations must mean that there is a complete shark body language waiting for researchers to unravel.
At some point in their lives, sharks must meet to procreate. Courtship and mating behaviour is rarely observed in the wild, but it is thought receptive females release pheromones (natural chemical stimulants) into the water to attract males. At Cocos Island, in the eastern Pacific, female whitetip reef sharks have been seen pursued by gangs of eager males. At Cape Hatteras, on the US Atlantic coast, sand tiger sharks are a little more reserved. They gather in groups of five or six, each shark stacked one on top of another. Both males and females hang motionless in the water until the time comes for them to mate.
Mating in sharks can be a violent affair. The male grabs a female by her pectoral fin or the skin behind her head and hangs on tightly. The female's skin is thicker than the male's (in some cases as much as three times as thick) so he inflicts less damage. Once he is firmly attached, and the other males have drifted away, he introduces his sperm into her cloaca using one of a pair of sausage-shaped claspers, each a penis-like extension of the pelvic fin. A spur or a bank of terminal ridges at the tip prevents it from slipping out. The sperm is then transferred in a jet of seawater squirted out by a pair of muscular-walled siphon sacs in the male's abdominal wall. Mating complete, male and female part company.
There are 27 km of specimen shelves in the Darwin Centre - the same distance as between the Museum and Junction 6 of the M1.

Full detailed profile on Asa Buchanan Played by Philip Carey on One Life To Live Daytime Soap Opera.
Philip Carey
Birthday: 1925-07-15
To Natalie, Asa talks about their similarities and how Natalie is as much a Buchanan as he ever was. Nigel then presents Natalie with a photo of the Buchanan Family Tree to remind her of where she came from – and where she'll always be.
Moving on to Sarah, Asa leaves her his record collection then draws everyone's attention to his boys, who he describes as being his biggest joy, his biggest letdown! After Asa talks about how Clint and Bo used to drive him nuts as children, he admires his sons for their parenting skills then apologizes for not being a good man for them. Nigel brings Clint Asa's gold spurs – to always keep Clint ahead of the race. After Nigel gives Matthew a gold sheriffs star for Bo, Asa talks about the Stetson he's leaving Matthew – the one that Bo already gave Matthew.
Next, after sipping his bourbon, Asa says, "Okay, who's ready for the big ticket items!" Talking about his beloved ranch, and how he built it from nothing, Asa leaves it to the one person who can most appreciate it – Chuck Wilson the third! Although honored, Chuck refuses the ranch, because it's Buchanan property, until Clint makes him realize that he must grant Asa's wish.
With talk of properties, Asa mentions his mansion, and how he's leaving it to a very special woman in his life – a feisty redhead! As Renee smiles at Asa's description of her, she does appear to be surprised to hear he wasn't talking about her at all – rather Nora! Asa leaves the mansion to Nora and Matthew, along with Renee and Nigel! Though Nora says, "This isn't right," Renee reminds her that Asa always promised she'd never be alone – and now he's making sure she isn't!
Suddenly, Asa startles everyone saying he has a special message for his son – one he didn't find out about until it was too late, leaving everyone shocked, Jared included!
At the mansion, while Nora and Matthew are eating breakfast with Renee, Nigel goes up to Asa's room and finds him dead… With no choice, after taking a moment to collect himself, Nigel goes downstairs and says, "Mr. Buchanan is…"
Clint arrives at Asa's and tells Asa, Renee and Nora that Jamie is going to be fine. Later when Nora announces that she'll be moving out of the mansion soon, everyone says how much they'll miss her and Matthew. Suddenly, Renee gets a call from The Palace saying that her bartender thinks a high-class hooker was in the bar, "But now she's not, so he thinks she's upstairs in a room." As Renee rushes out, Natalie comes in and asks to speak to Asa - alone.
When Natalie tells Asa she'd like to work for him at Buchanan Enterprise, Asa welcomes her with open arms.
At Rodie's, when Natalie confronts John about his 'date' with Marty, John says, "You're too good for this petty jealousy." After John reminds Natalie that they started off as friends and that he still has so many feelings inside of him for her, Natalie admits to being jealous of Marty and asks, "Should I be?" John expresses that she has no reason to be jealous, "You broke me up pretty good and I'm not ready to move on." Just then, Asa shows up saying he's there to meet Clint. One look at John and Natalie and Asa says, "You two are getting hitched, aren't you!" After Natalie sets Asa straight, and tells him about Jessica, Asa spots Nora and Lindsey and heads to their table.
John and Natalie have a civil talk and agree to accept their separate lives. "It'll be hard," Natalie says, but she can't give John any tips as to how to make it easier. Although John asks if she wants to have a beer and shoot some pool, Natalie refuses, "It would bring back too many good memories." The two go their separate ways…
At a table across the bar, when Nora asks Lindsey what her motives are concerning Bo, Lindsey says, "I have no interest in Bo other than a friend." Although Nora keeps pushing Lindsey, Lindsey keeps her cool and says that while she's changed, she can barely recognize the woman sitting in front of her. Just then, Asa approaches and warns Lindsey not to even think about putting her hooks into Bo again! In a roundabout way, Lindsey tells them both to get a life, then accuses Nora of still being hung up on Bo! With Asa watching on, Lindsey gives Nora a few choice words, then leaves Asa to tell Nora, "Your love life stinks. If you're not careful, Lindsey could end up being Matthew's new step-mommy!"

Sewing techniques–including cutting, hand stitching, seam and hem finishes, pocket construction, pressing, and finishing–all of the basic garment techniques are explored.
Skills and techniques learned in this workshop will guide students to develop, create and produce a simple couturier dress in woven or woven-type fabrics using industrial or personal equipment currently used in the fashion industry.
- For this course, no sewing experience is necessary. A valid driver's license is required.
Week Two, Joy of Patternmaking–My Little Black Dresses: This course introduces students to the concept of "sloper" (basic pattern blocks), the foundation of all flat pattern creation. A sloper can be created to simulate a garment being constructed for any body shape, enabling designers to make design patterns quickly and accurately. This will allow students to produce effective and accurate industry-standard pattern slopers for individual body types, which results in properly measured garment fit and size samples.
Using specific body measurements, students will draft basic sloper and dress sloper. Using the basic dress sloper, students will develop original dress designs, create patterns and apply proper construction techniques to produce a one-of-a-kind dress.
For this course, basic sewing skills and fundamental mathematical knowledge are required. A valid driver's license is also required.

Respond to Review of Hotel Saravana Bhavan - Janpath
by Batya
Review: I ate here twice in September 2011 and was quite disappointed. The first time, I ordered the Masala Dosa which wasn't terrible but was greasy and not one of the better ones I've had. Still, due to the recommendations this place received, I decided to give it another try and returned a second time. I ordered their special Thali and was even more disappointed. The curd was sour (spoiled sour), the curries were extremely spicy (and I'm used to spicy) & not very good at all. The two American women at the table beside me left their plates after tasting a bite of each item on the Thali plate. Relatively speaking, this was expensive and the food I ate at simple veg. Dhabas was better. I will not be returning here.

It is time once again for the Living History Park to go Under the Crown.
The annual event will be held on Saturday, June 7, and Sunday, June 8. There will also be a dinner on Friday, June 6, with special guest King George III, portrayed by Tim Nealeigh.
Following winter storm Pax and other matters, the park was unable to hold another of its annual events, The Artisans' Fair. Lynn Thompson, chairman of the Living History Park and president of the Olde Towne Preservation Association, said the park looks the best it has in a long time following the cleanup efforts and changes that have been made.
"We have done a lot of improvements that people may not notice unless they're really looking for them," she said. "The buildings have been pressure washed, we worked on the stream, put out a lot of new plants and we cleaned the garden, among other things."
Thompson said there has been extra care put in to make sure the park is safe due to a number of trees that had to come down. For this event, though, all of the buildings will be open and accessible to the public.
Under the Crown is described as being set in 1780, and the colonies are in rebellion. Charleston is under siege and may have already fallen, the rebel forces were defeated at Savannah last year in 1779. The park's website goes on to say "things are not going well for the American cause, but the rebels are not done yet. The weekend will be filled with new ways to learn and experience the history of Augusta and North Augusta. Historical re-enactors will be at the Living History Park to allow a glimpse of the period of the American Revolution."
In addition to King George, Queen Sophia Charlotte, Benjamin Franklin, the slave Kessie, musician Ken Bloom, dancemaster Dana Cheney and the Pumpkintown Primitives will also make guest appearances.
The Living History Park is located at 299 W. Spring Grove Ave. New to the park this year will be the grist mill, which began construction this week.
There are still spots available for the Friday night dinner, and tickets are $50 per person. For more information or to purchase tickets, call Thompson at 803-279-7560 or email her at firstname.lastname@example.com.
As always, the weekend portion of the event has no admission fee.

I love to laugh no question bout that
Clowning and being absurd
D'ya hear the one bout a girl and a sailor
Limericks got lotsa bad words
How is laughter defined in the dictionary
Beside it, there's a picture of Jack
With a cute definition that reads like this
Very nice but a bit outta whack
Sure don't appreciate that nasty last line
May not be an Einstein or a Gates
But still have other redeeming factors
Hot dogs? I can eat twenty-eight
In our local community I'm surely loved
They think there's nobody sweeter
Ride a motorized cart round the stores
Once maimed a Walmart greeter
Bottom line is to this crazy nonsense
No doubt I'm a fun loving jester
But I can get quite belligerent at times
And give you a very rude gesture

Things were a little slower paced for us last week and early this week I didn't see much of a change. We've been hearing about Bo's visions of Ciara since May, waiting for this story to take off already, and 'SLAM!' the end of the week put us right into the middle of a kidnapping storyline. I'm still not interested. Rafe and Sami broke up and then Johnny's cough came about. Segue way into another storyline or twist for one already happening? Keep watching and we'll find out!
These two provided the week's eye candy at the Kiriakis pool. Arianna spoke with the ex again and was pleased to hear that the big bosses are happy she's doing so well with moving the merchandise. Have you any thought as to who the boss could be? Stefano? Victor? EJ? Somebody new?
We had a Lumi moment, which was fun, as usual. Their banter made me laugh and I love how Lucas still maintains that EJ deserved to be shot in the back and to have died. I'd love to see some Lucas/EJ conflict scenes again.
Oh the drama with these two! Rafe left Sami again. Sometimes I think of this as their dance. Every couple has a quirky way about them. EJ yells screams bloody murder at Nicole and Rafe takes off when he feels cornered. EJ is an energetic, passionate and expressive kind of guy. He's scary! Rafe is the strong silent type. Not as excitable. Confrontation, expressing himself and communicating is difficult for this guy. So he leaves when things get overwhelming. I think we can agree that neither man is perfect, that screaming and walking out are both annoying!
It was hard to watch Safe break-up. Rafe feels she doesn't trust him and that's why she's demanding the truth, and won't let up until she knows. I don't support that. I do think that Sami trusts him and I do think that she deserves to know the truth about his past. It seems to me that he is the one with gigantic trust issues and can't trust in Sami. He worries about how she'll react to his story, and he must think it's really bad, because he refuses to budge, even when his sister, Arianna pushes him.
It was nice to see Sami have people in her townhouse after the break-up with Rafe. Usually she's alone, but she had a visit from Stephanie and Maggie Friday. Good to see and I'd like to see more of these relationships develop.
Nicole's getting too close to Sami. Fans are enjoying their scenes and it's brilliant because the pay off will be even greater when the baby switch is in the open.
Monday was the first time I've seen Nicole finally get a backbone where EJ is concerned. She's slowly realizing that he doesn't want to be happy, that like any good DiMera, he loves to wallow in sorrow and pain and without a vendetta, he's not quite sure how to live his life.
EJ was broody again and suspicious of his wife. I realize Nicole deserves him to be suspicious, however, there is truly no reason for him to mistrust her so and to follow her every move. She let him know she was off to the pub to get food for Johnny and when EJ returned home to find her still gone, he ranted about it to Stefano and called her cell phone. Short leash. I don't see what motivates him other than she seems to be very emotional about Grace's death. I'd like him to catch her at something and really have cause for suspicion. Then, I will accept the short leash.
I got a lot of gratification with the scene between sister and brother, Lexi and EJ. That's what I want to see. Family helping family. He opened up about his feelings for Sami. He didn't really say he was in love with her, but what he did say gave us insight into feelings he has for her that he probably shouldn't, considering he's with Nicole. So does this mean that once he finds out Nicole switched babies, he'll dump her and go to Sami? Will Sami, who we know loves Rafe, even want EJ? We know how EJ feels about betrayal, so it's safe to say he'll do something to Nicole when he finds out. Whether or not he'll put her up in the secret room, dump her or something worse, remains to be seen, but we know it's bad. When he finds out Sydney's his daughter and Sami's the mother, will it make him feel that parental bond much more than he already feels it? Will Sami and Rafe stay split up long enough for EJ and Sami to get close or is this all temporary and will Nicole get caught much sooner? The wheels are spinning!
Stefano's tears in front of Lexi were disturbing this week. He's so emotional lately that I don't recognize him. He made one of his classic mystery calls. That's intriguing. I think it's about Dr. Baker this time, not Rafe. I can see Stefano putting a hit on Baker, but if he does so, it'll be bad for Nicole and I think for him as well, if EJ finds out he knew about this baby switch all along.
Dr Baker:
When did I really start to love him? I'm not sure. I'd forgotten how fun he and Nicole were. We all should remember that Dr. Baker wrote that letter about Nicole and her baby switch. On Friday, some thug came to him, demanding his money. It worried me, because if this guy kills Baker, and the letter is found, the cops will assume Nicole had him killed. I do want the storyline to wrap up, in a sense, but not sure how I want to see it happen or how it will occur. I'm not sure it's possible for this to happen, but I'd like to see Baker stick around Salem. His chemistry with Nicole is great and if he is killed off or leaves town again, we won't see that.
Finally, we're getting somewhere with Bo's vision. He started having this vision about Ciara losing her Tommy Bear May 11. It hasn't caught on with many, because the writers have only given us a glimpse of this vision every other month. They rarely even show Bope, so this storyline isn't as engaging as I'm sure they were hoping for. Let's recap. The mystery man saw Hope's name in the paper. She donated a large sum to charity and unfortunately, it wasn't anonymous as she had wanted it to be. So Mr. Mystery Creeper reads about it and figures he can make five million dollars from a police officer and a police commissioner. Is he on something? Not only are they the cops but they're far from rich. So he lured Ciara away, thanks to Ellen, who obviously had too many charges at the carnival.
Theo saw the mystery man, ("Creeper") kidnap Ciara. I watched his gaze when Lexi was tending to Tracy and he saw the whole thing. Finally! This cutie gets something to do that doesn't have to involve just his Autism! He wrung his hands and said he saw Ciara, but will he be able to share more about the napping?
Chia/Wia et al:
Good to see Mia and Will's relationship kicked up a few notches. We're seeing more of Mia and Will's relationship heating up with the kissing and hand-holding. I think that Mia must have feelings for Chad still, but for now, Will is her guy. Chad and Kinsey are delicious brats, trying to break them up and again, it reminds me of the past story of Shawn, Belle and Jan Spears!
Kate's getting stranger by the day. The fantasies about Daniel are still very sex driven. Many fans seem disgusted by them. I'm not. I find them both attractive people and am enjoying this dirty side of Kate.
This week he tried to save Chloe, but Abe's citizen's arrest (way over the top) put a crimp in Daniel's plans. Abe's head almost blew straight off his neck when he learned Daniel wanted Lexi to take the drug that poisoned Chloe and inject her with it in a smaller scale. That's understandable from Abe's point of view, but he still annoyed me! Though this week, Chloe had a little increase in brain activity, she's not going to wake up soon.
Justin's return:
I didn't watch him back when, so this is my first time getting to know him. He seems as though he could be interesting. I'd like to see him do a few bad deeds. He seems like he could have more appeal bad, rather than good. Obviously, he's a great lawyer. Kate should be aware. The fact that they live under the same roof could make for some interesting times at the Kiriakis compound.
One of my pals on Facebook said she was happy to see another hot 50 year old guy on the show. She's over the puppies, she said. That surprised me. I didn't consider him as hot because he's older, but how silly of me. Age shouldn't matter, right? He looks great, as does Bo, and my pal made a good point. We've loads of younger cute guys on canvas. It's nice to see an older guy around.
No real thoughts on the new DA, Mr. Woods, except it seems as though he has the potential to really cause troubles for Daniel and Justin.
Either she can't catch a break when it comes to dating, or she simply can't catch a break with Nathan. I don't want her with Nathan anyway, so am glad that it's not working out with them. Stephanie seems awfully intrigued by the serious young doctor-to-be, though. He as well seems interested in her. What did he say Friday? He toasted to an uncomplicated relationship. Was I the only one thinking… friends with benefits? Hey, you saw the suggestive look on Stephanie's face!
To wrap things up for the week, I still haven't felt that engaged with the show. I realize many are hoping that bringing back past characters will help push the ratings up but good acting isn't the only thing that'll help the show. Fans won't stick around unless the story is compelling, filled with drama, sex and adventure. Speaking of adventure, I'm off for one this weekend. Cheers and please feel free to leave a comment about your thoughts for the week and follow us on Twitter @soapoperafan!

Protesters: 'We'll still fight to save Woodlands'
Last updated at 11:32, Thursday, 19 April 2012
THE group campaigning to save Woodlands care home has vowed to continue its fight to keep it open.
Cumbria County Council announced last week that Woodlands in Distington WILL close following a three-month consultation period into modernising care for the elderly in the area.
The other two under threat homes – Park Lodge in Aspatria and Richmond Park in Workington – will remain open.
However, the Woodlands Care and Support Group is furious at the last Thursday's decision and does not plan to give up its fight.
"Cumbria County Council has ditched Woodlands," said the group's chairman William Gray, whose father-in-law is a resident in the home, which specialises in dementia care.
"For the people who live there and their families, and for those who work there, the decision is a disgrace and we will carry on the fight."
The council has started the closure process and will now cease admissions to the home. Officers will also meet Woodlands staff and families before the end of April to discuss the process, although the home will not close until next year.
Woodland has 19 residents (out of a 40 maximum) and 47 staff on permanent hours plus 23 providing relief hours to cover as required. This equates to around 29 full-time equivalents.
A council spokesman said: "The council will work with residents, their families and staff to decide on the most appropriate alternative care and ensure the move from old to new is handled sensitively to ensure the wellbeing of all residents. Depending on the needs of individual residents, this will happen over the next 12 months.
"The council will also work with staff and the trade unions to develop options including redeployment into protected vacancies within Cumbria Care and across the wider council.
"The authority has been protecting vacancies in other county council-run care services across the district."
Mr Gray has expressed concern for the wellbeing of residents if they face the upheaval of a move.
"Woodlands was built in the 1970s as a purpose-built dementia unit; other homes do not have the facilities that Woodlands does.
"There is a safe, paved garden area in the middle for residents to use, and there is a doctor's surgery and ambulance centre on its doorstep.
"Other homes have dementia units on their sites, but are not as specialised as Woodlands. The care residents receive there is outstanding."
Distington councillor Brian Dixon, also a member of the support group, added: "The council is playing politics with people's lives and I am really sad for the residents and their families.
"I don't feel that the council or local county councillors have fought for Woodlands and this is the result."
A county council spokes-man responded: "Any transfers of residents follows best practice guidelines and starts with a full reassessment of need. This will involve a range of professionals from both social care and health.
"This guidance – which involves working closely with residents, families, current staff and the staff at the new location – will ensure that the risk to residents is minimised.
"In previous transfers under the county council's modernisation programme, there has not been any increase in mortality against the normal rates for homes unaffected by such transfers.
"Woodlands is not the only specialist dementia home in the area. Adult social care accesses around 232 residential and nursing dementia beds in Copeland and 280 in Allerdale. Many provide the high level care that Woodlands provides.
"For many years now, the prevalence of dementia has seen the residential care market expand its specialism and it is now commonplace for homes to support those with dementia with a good number providing high-level support.
"The home has served people well in the past but, like all buildings, it has a finite life. The staff are excellent but the building is out of date.
"To make changes would require extensive work and, from assessments done on similar council homes, would have probably involved demolition and rebuild.
"The fact is that we have too much residential provision in the district and we need to redistribute the funds used at Woodlands to support the development of new services particularly which allow people in future to choose to stay properly supported in their own home. This was the basis of the consultation exercise."
Mr Gray added that, in his opinion, the council has failed to invest in Woodlands over the years in favour of other care homes, resulting in it now being deemed "not fit for purpose".
And Mr Gray and Coun Dixon both claimed that the council had already decided to close the Woodlands – and keep Park Lodge and Richmond Park open – before the consultation process was even launched.
"The whole consultation period was deeply flawed," Mr Gray said.
Copeland MP Jamie Reed, speaking when the consultation ended in February, added: "The staff, residents and families associated with Woodlands deserve much better than the treatment given to them by the county council in what is beginning to prove an emerging scandal.
"I have met with families and staff and it's absolutely clear that no consultation worthy of the name has taken place."
The council responded: "This was not a forgone conclusion; the aim of the consultation was to gather people's views on a range of proposals. As we said throughout, no decision had been made and we have taken into account the views that were expressed during the consultation."
Mr Gray said that if three county councillors come forward to support the Woodlands campaign, the decision will be called back in for a council scrutiny committee to re-assess the decision.

August 3, 2015
CHICAGO -- Chicago teachers are suspending a seven-day strike in the nation's third-largest city, a move that will send thousands of students back to classrooms.
The union's House of Delegates voted Tuesday to suspend the strike after learning details of a tentative contract agreement.
A proposed settlement was presented to delegates during the weekend. Sticking points included teacher evaluations and job security, provisions at the core of a debate about the future of public education across the nation.
The union delayed its vote to give teachers more time to assess the contract they'll vote on in the coming weeks.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel had pushed for a quick resolution as parents found alternatives for about 350,000 students. He even went to court to try to force teachers back to class.

Critical Thinking - Native American Style
"Only when the last tree has died; only when the last river been poisoned; only when the last fish is caught; only then will they realize that you cannot eat money." - Cree Indian Proverb
« February 2007 | Main | April 2007 »
"Only when the last tree has died; only when the last river been poisoned; only when the last fish is caught; only then will they realize that you cannot eat money." - Cree Indian Proverb
In an interview with a British journalist, Yoo said this about war:
Look, death is worse than torture, but everyone except pacifists thinks there are circumstances in which war is justified. War means killing people. If we are entitled to kill people, we must be entitled to injure them. I don't see how it can be reasonable to have an absolute prohibition on torture when you don't have an absolute prohibition on killing.
Here is a very solid explanation of the flaws in Yoo's thinking by Professor Dave Glazier from Loyola Law School in Los Angeles via Marty Lederman at the blog, Balkanization:
One of the most fundamental problems with Yoo's logic is that he is simply ignorant of the law of war. Yoo clearly believes that war is essentially a lawless regime, subject only to a few treaties he knows of. In his view, if you can distinguish your situation from those covered by explicit treaty language, then you get to do what you want. What Yoo fails to recognize is that war is far from a lawless regime.
Emotionally clear, and rigorously logical thinking are never as crucial as when we are faced with such critically important moments in history - moments that can alter a society permanently and irreversibly. Moments like when one is considering the long-term implications of going to war.
Such considerations transcend political affiliations, and/or inclinations.
Happy St. Pat's everyone!
So, today's entry isn't really a "tech tip" but it is something tech related and goes along with why it is important to stay on the cutting edge--or at the very least--informed. (See, I'm *not* really wasting my time surfing the web for hours on end! Well, I guess it depends where I'm surfing for those hours on end, right?) Check out this video and I'd love to know if shift happens to you...
This is my first entry, so I've been crawling the web looking for good examples of what I want to do for my first entry. As far as I can tell, bloggers usually give a little bio info (you know, to establish their credibility) and then some background info (to give context to their periodic musings). It's my understanding that you, as dutiful blog readers, should post comments to let me know what you're thinking (about what I said), or to guide me with future topics, corrections, etc.
Here's my attempt at fulfilling my end of the bargain:
Who am I?
I'm 29 years old and live and work in the north San Francisco Bay Area. I am a member of On the Verge Group 4 (and if you want to know all of the goods on me from that angle, you can check me out here). I work as the Coordinator of Education and Employment for a youth Emancipation Center (as in emancipating from Foster Care, Group Homes and/or Probation). As all of us that work for non-profits know that our job duties are not limited to our job title. I also coordinate my non-profit's technology and infrastructure (which includes 7 Intel Processor iMacs/printers, a networked hard drive for shared storage space and a networked copier/laser printer). I'm new to the cult of Mac, but learning (and loving it) quickly. My expertise is in Window's PC's and networking. My computer love began back in the early 90s with a programming class (my love of software) I took in high school and then when I dismantled our family home computer and had to get it back together and working (hardware) before my mom and dad found out. The rest is history.
My Goal
I'll be using this space to share fantastic tech and net finds with you, my fellow non-profit techies (or wannabe techies). My hope is to focus on practical technology that is neither too advanced nor too expensive.
Preview of what's to come
So, you want a taste of the goods I'll share? Bon appétit:
Netfinds (useful sites to share)
Jyngle: "a mobile and online messaging service that helps you easily share information with groups of people."
As someone who works with youth and groups of youth on a regular basis over the past eight years, I've come to learn that the much hyped next generation might be online all the time, but they sure don't check (or reply to) their email very much (well, unless its some JUICY gossip). Solution? Well it may very well be Jyngle—sign up for a free account, and then you can send group voicemail messages or text messages. It's much more likely that the youth you're trying to get a hold of will get your message (their phone numbers change so much less often than their --email@example.com-- email).
Bonus: if you've ever got a song stuck in your head that you don't know, try Midomi.com. Hum into your computer's mic and it will tell you what
Webdef (new lingo you should know)
Web 2.0: any of a host of user-friendly, interactive, "next generation" websites that facilitate collaboration or info sharing, especially among social groups and/or other websites—especially if they use Flash animation/technology. (i.e.: Gmail integrates Google email, calendar, documents and chat; MySpace integrates a whole social community w/ job listings, video, music, chat and, of course, the ability to comment about how cute/dorky your friend looks in that picture) For more on Web 2.0, check out the web2.0 directory.
Until next time.
This bit of historical trivia seems important today in light of what is occurring in one of those commonwealths, notably Pennsylvania, concerning the issue of transportation.
So let's review. A commonwealth is a state governed for the common good, literally for the common weal, or common well-being.
Now let's look at what is occurring in the commonwealth's capital with regard to the transportation issue. In an article in this morning's Philadelphia Inquirer the governor's office has said that there will be no "patch" this time to the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA). No federal highway funds "diverted" to cover the cost overruns in the southeast corner of the state.
But here is the key paragraph:
Legislators representing rural areas of the state, such as Rep. Fred McIlhattan (R., Clarion), said their constituents were reluctant to contribute more money for mass transit, which they saw as benefiting only metropolitan areas.
And to me this is indicative of much that is happening not just in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, but also in the nation as a whole. If the "wifum question" (What's in it for me?) does not have an immediate and concrete answer, many of us Americans just say no. Rural is more and more pitted against urban, with suburbanites squeezed in the middle.
Unless we return to conversations about the common good, the common well being of all our citizens - urban, rural, rich, poor and middle-class, children and seniors - then there is little hope that either our standards of living or the quality of our lives will stay the same let alone improve.
Right now "well-being in common" seems less like a platitude, and more like a good way to live, and perhaps the only way we will survive.

Park Yoo Chun may finally get to sing on TV.
The singer-turned-actor has been pouring his efforts into his scenes for the MBC drama I Miss You, as his official introduction to the drama is coming up with its fourth episode. Recent stills showed Park Yoo Chun surprisingly singing into a mike.
In the stills, Park Yoo Chun is shown holding the mike tightly in his two hands and singing with all his might. His eyes are closed, as he stands in a black jacket.
Fans have welcomed the scene, as his group JYJ is currently unable to perform on TV.
They commented, "I wish he could sing on stage like this too," "I guess we′ll get to see Park Yoo Chun with a mike through this drama" and "He looks really serious."
A rep from the drama shared, "The scene where Park Yoo Chun holds the mike connects the story of the child actors with the story of the adult actors. The clue is in young Jung Woo and young Soo Yeon′s time together. This is Han Jung Woo′s first scene as an adult, so please keep your eyes on what will come next for the drama."

I got the best news on the weekend. My daughter and Peter are engaged. They are a beautiful couple and my son and I have been watching and waiting and hoping they would realise they belong together for a while. I love the way they look at each other. See that photo, there are plenty just like it!
This is the kind of joy and promise of good times ahead that makes life worth living.
I know I talk about engagement a lot – student engagement, community engagement and daughter engagement is the best of all :). I have another son – one specially chosen by my daughter – celebration details to come!

Close supervision is necessary when this appliance is used by, on or near children or individuals with certain disabilities. 3. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by Andis. 4. Never operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped or damaged, or dropped into water. Return the appliance to an Andis Service Center for examination or repair. 5. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. 6. Never drop or insert any object into any opening. 7.

WARNING: During use, do not place or leave appliance where it may be (1) damaged by an animal or (2) exposed to the weather.
Please read the following instructions before using your new Andis Clipper. Give it the care that a fine precision built instrument deserves and it will give you years of service. Plug cord into electrical outlet, operate 120 volt, 60 cycle AC electrical current or as noted on unit. To start clipper move switch button by pressing down on the lock mechanism and moving to the #1 position. To stop, press down on the lock mechanism and move switch button back to original position. After using your Andis Clipper, rewrap cord, and store in a safe place. removing blade set To remove blade set, first make sure your clipper motor is switched "OFF". Push blade release mechanism under blade hinge. While holding down the blade release mechanism, push down on blade, then gently pull the blade forward, and slide it off the blade hinge. If your blade hinge should snap closed and is flush with the clipper, use a small standard screwdriver to pry the tongue of the hinge out. NOTE: Hair may accumulate in the front cavity of the housing under the blade. If this happens, you can clean out the hair by brushing out the cavity with a small brush or an old toothbrush while the blade is off the clipper.
REPLACING OR CHANGING BLADE SET: To replace or change your blade set, slide the blade bracket onto the hinge of the clipper and with the clipper turned "ON", push the blade towards the clipper to lock into position.
USER MAINTENANCE: The internal mechanism of your motor clipper has been permanently lubricated by the factory. Other than the recommended maintenance described in this manual, no other maintenance should be performed, except by Andis Company, or an Andis Authorized Repair Service Station.
Care and servicing of your Andis Clipper blades: Blades should be oiled before, during, and after each use. If your clipper blades leave streaks or slow down, it's a sure sign blades need oil. Place a few drops of oil on the front and side of the cutter blades. Wipe excess oil off blades with a soft, dry cloth. Spray lubricants contain insufficient oil for good lubrication, but are an excellent clipper blade coolant. Always replace broken or nicked blades to prevent injury. You can clean the excess hair from your blades by using a small brush or worn out toothbrush. To clean the blades, we suggest to immerse the blades only into a shallow pan of Andis Clipper Oil, while the clipper is running. Any excess hair and dirt that has accumulated between the blades should come out. After cleaning, turn your clipper off and dry blades with a clean dry cloth and start clipping again. If upon cleaning your blades you find that the blades will still not cut, there may be a few fine pieces of hair trapped between the upper and lower blade. If this happens, you will need to snap the blade off the clipper. Proceed to slide the upper blade to one side, without loosening the tension spring or moving the upper blade completely out from under the tension spring. Wipe the surface between the blades clean with a dry cloth, then place a drop of clipper oil where the upper and lower blades meet and also in the guide slot of the tension spring. Now slide the upper blade to the opposite side of the lower blade and repeat this process. After completing this procedure, slide the upper blade, centering it over the lower blade. Handle or store your Andis Clipper with the blades down so excess oil will not run into the clipper case.
Changing the blade DRIVE assembly: If your clipper blades no longer cut properly (be sure to try more than one blade, since the blade currently being used may be dull), it could be that your blade drive assembly needs replacement. To change the blade drive assembly: 1. Remove blade set. 2. Remove drive cap. 3. Remove blade drive mounting screws. 4. NOTE: Before removing blade drive assembly, note the way it is positioned (this will help you in reassembly). Remove blade drive assembly. 5. Drive bearing should be at its lowest position, if not, move it with your finger to lowest position. 6. Put on new drive assembly, align screw holes and press down. 7. Reassemble blade drive by mounting screws. 8. Replace drive cap. 9. Replace blade.
Caution: Never handle your Andis Clipper while you are operating a water faucet, and never hold your clipper under a water faucet or in water. There is danger of electrical shock and damage to your clipper. Andis Company will not be responsible in case of injury due to this carelessness.

Style: Combat Cuddling--
Not bad Wc I should've prefaced mine that it's all in rhythm Beastie Boys style.
Now here it comes at you, just let me reply
You're a lyrical lamer a bug in my eye.
Down in Miami where the weather is hot,
your punches are straight but we know that you're not.
Take your center-line and your vertical hand,
but when I come at you, you'll be tastin sand.
Cause on the ground is where I own,
and I'll take you down and send you home.
Edit: And a little something for Rudy (hehe) (This is more Jedi Mind Trick's Scars of the Crucifix rhythm)
Rudy Rudy what the **** are you doin,
in the failure of martial world, you're a shoe in.
Coming on here and you're just waistin your time,
wasting the space and wastin our rhymes
Do we gotta take you back to 93
put you on the mat with fuckin Royce Gracie.
With your arm in hand,
Like Moses he led us to the promise land.
Of real skills, real fights, he opend our eyes.
And I don't give a **** if you decry, say it was lies.
Filling the air with your crys, of "steriods did this can't you see?"
It brought us back to earth just let it be.
Everybody complainin about dicks in their face,
Wing Chun tried it out and got put in his place.
Quit looking around looking down, nobody wants your **** it's over now. Go back on home, Get over this ****, Just say one thing and it'll be over quick.
(much love Rudy I just felt like Rhyming hehe)

x2z gives respect to me,
Cause he knows his neck would bleed if he tried to get the best of me,
Though its appreciated cuz, cause I'm here for the lulz,
It's obvious by your lines, that you ain't gotta pulse,
You should stick to rhymes, cause wing chun is false,
No amount of insults will halt the inevitable result,
Of a loss in the ring, it is chuns faults that takes the gloss off your wins,
A jab, hook, cross wiped off that grin,
Cause you know its all dross when you say the chun is king,
Yeah its fun to begin, are you over 18,
Its time to wipe your combat slate clean,
Forget the centreline, stick to angles you'll be mean,
You're already boxing, like a kangaroo,
Wing chun blows like a didgeridoo,
Did ya think you could blue,
Did you think you could tangle,
Sorry dude, if you did your chun'll leave you mangled.
"blue" is Aussie slang for a fight, in case that sounds out of place.

I'll be spittin lyrics when you're dead and gone
But that won't be too long, cause I'm out on your lawn.
I'm gonna stay polite and civil, hell no, **** this,
I'm going to your dojo now to start a ruckus.
Barge into the class just to give them all lip then
flip them till they all **** can Yip Man.
Try to rap battle, you're a clod and reject.
Try to fight me you'll be a quadriplegic.
We start fightin', your face will whiten
You're frightened as you feel my choke hold tighten.
Right then, I've gotta go and get some money.
I'm taking out your girl (you keep the wooden dummy).

I have two from 2007 when I was in treatment. My favorite hats. And a conversation starter. :)
