The Spirit of Community Organizing – When Corruption Gets Treated As A Manageable Risk
You can always trust the government. They practice morality on a much higher plane than the money-mongers grubbing for the filthy lucre down in the private sector. It's a good thing they exist to be morally pure and impartial to all sides. Oh, Wait! They don't. They are just as likely to be corrupt, duplicitous, and falsely self-seeking in the name of the commonweal. In Iowa they have mechanized corruption so that it happens efficiently as a manageable risk of governance.

The Des Moines Register reports that for five years ending in February 2011, the Iowa Civil Rights Commission shook down landlords for "voluntary contributions" in exchange for dropping discrimination complaints. The Register obtained copies of 27 settlement agreements involving about $20,000 in contributions.

Can't Buy a Thrillby Steely Dan
View All Available Formats & Editions
Walter Becker and Donald Fagen were remarkable craftsmen from the start, as Steely Dan's debut, Can't Buy a Thrill, illustrates. Each song is tightly constructed, with interlocking chords and gracefully interwoven melodies, buoyed by clever, cryptic lyrics. All of these are hallmarks of Steely Dan's signature sound, but what is most remarkable about the record is the way it differs from their later albums. Of course, one of the most notable differences is the presence of vocalist David Palmer, a professional blue-eyed soul vocalist who oversings the handful of tracks where he takes the lead. Palmer's very presence signals the one major flaw with the album -- in an attempt to appeal to a wide audience, Becker and Fagen tempered their wildest impulses with mainstream pop techniques. Consequently, there are very few of the jazz flourishes that came to distinguish their albums -- the breakthrough single, "Do It Again," does work an impressively tight Latin jazz beat, and "Reelin' in the Years" has jazzy guitar solos and harmonies -- and the production is overly polished, conforming to all the conventions of early-'70s radio. Of course, that gives these decidedly twisted songs a subversive edge, but compositionally, these aren't as innovative as their later work. Even so, the best moments ("Dirty Work," "Kings," "Midnight Cruiser," "Turn That Heartbeat Over Again") are wonderful pop songs that subvert traditional conventions and more than foreshadow the paths Steely Dan would later take.

Fresh Cut Christmas Trees, Wreaths and Handmade Crafts from Pine Valley Farm in Oconomowoc, WI
Welcome to Pine Valley Christmas Tree Farm! Located in Southeastern, WI, offer a fine selection of fir trees and white pine, and we have recently started growing Concolor Fir which is a blend of Frasier Fir and Balsam Fir. This has the deep green of the Frasier and the wonderful smell of the Balsam Fir. Our trees are sheared yearly to provide a uniform look and strong limb to hold ornaments.
Take a drive out to the countryside of the Milwaukee area, visit the farm, find that tree that was meant for you. Cut it down yourself, or we can cut it for you. Many folks value the experience as a yearly family holiday tradition and bring the kids along for photo shots of dad cutting their tree down.
Our wreaths are made from the trees that did not meet the standard for Christmas tree form and the boughs that make them are cut late in the season so the sap has set. This assures that there will be very little needle loss well into spring. We use mix greens of fir and white pine for the wreaths which give the wreath a full and soft look.
Don't miss our selection of hand made crafts. We create crafts, not just for Christmas, but for the whole year, and especially for the holidays during the year.
Our goal is to give your family a taste of yesteryear with a fine quality product at a fair price. The sound of Christmas carols playing adds to the holiday atmosphere, and we have a pot of hot cocoa simmering with home made cookies for our guests!
Unfortunately, we had long term damage during the drought of 2012, and we will not be able to cut trees this year. We do have a good supply of wreaths and crafts! Have a very Merry Christmas!

A leading transpersonal psychologist reveals the unexpected secret to a happy life: behaving with kindness.
Piero Ferrucci calls it "global cooling," a phenomenon of chilly human relations. Communications are hurried and impersonal. The drive for profit and wealth has become a cherished value. And warmth and genuine presence have all but dissolved into a sea of materialism and self-interest.
The Power of Kindness is a stirring examination of a simple but profound concept. Piero Ferrucci, one of the world's most respected transpersonal psychologists, explores the many surprising facets of kindness and argues that it is this trait, and this trait alone, which will lead not only to our own individual happiness and the happiness of those around us, but will guide us in a world that has become cold, anxious, difficult, and frightening.
Not an ordinary self-help book, The Power of Kindness is instead a blueprint. Being kind, Ferrucci argues, does not mean becoming a human doormat or a cloying handservant. And "Heaven save us from the fakes," Ferrucci writes-self-interested politeness, calculated generosity, superficial etiquette, and even kindness against one's will.
Instead, kindness is composed of many elements, including qualities not immediately associated with it: flexibility, honesty, a sense of belonging, gratitude, attention, forgiveness, and more. In eighteen interlocking chapters, each devoted to a single aspect of kindness, Ferrucci moves seamlessly from tales of myth and legend to personal anecdotes to scientific research and philosophical treatises. He reveals that the kindest people are the most likely to thrive, to enable others to thrive, and to slowly but steadily turn our world away from violence, self-centeredness, and narcissism, and toward love.
Writing with a rare combination of sensitivity and intellectual depth, Ferrucci shows that, ultimately, kindness is not a luxury in our world, but a necessity for us all.
Piero Ferrucci, a former student of and collaborator with transpersonal psychologist Roberto Assagioli, is a staff member of the Psychosynthesis Institute of Florence, Italy, and the International Federation of Medical Psychotherapy. He is the author of The Power of Kindness, What We May Be, Inevitable Grace, and What Our Children Teach Us, among other titles. He lives in the Tuscan countryside with his wife and children.

"Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it's at the end of your arm, as you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others."
"To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others."
"I have learned silence from the talkative, tolerance from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strangely, I am ungrateful to these teachers"
"The way we communicate with others and with ourselves ultimately determines the quality of our lives"
"To be aware of a single shortcoming within oneself is more useful than to be aware of a thousand in somebody else. Rather than speaking badly about people and in ways that will produce friction and unrest in their lives, we should practice a purer perception of them, and when we speak of others, speak of their good qualities."
"All we really want is otherness, tossing from side to side, and greeting every toss with shouts of welcome, and of contempt for the previous toss"

See what people are saying about our shows...
"LBCC was a blast! You guys do such a terrific job of putting on a convention. This is my 4th LBCC and as long as you keep doing what you're doing, I'll keep coming back. Everyone there is super friendly and it's so easy and well organized, which makes it a lot of fun. My favorite thing to do is meet comic book creators, get signatures and get sketches in artist alley. I love that you have well established names as well as lots of fresh talent to discover. Seriously, from top to bottom, you all do a great job with the show. Kudos to everyone on your staff!"
- Chris Kiefer
"My husband and I really love attending your convention. We have been attending since the first Long Beach Comic Con and it has become our favorite comic book convention. Since we are from San Diego, we take a "mini vacation" in Long Beach. We are super excited for this year's event. You have created a really Awesome comic convention!"
- Rachel Fogg-Lara & Ramon Lara
"I had the opportunity this last weekend to walk the Long Beach Comic Con. The past 3 years I have attended as a budding young (well old) artist and enjoyed my time in the Artist Alley. From the veteran creators of the comic industry to the new faces looking to tell their own stories, there is an overall drive of creativity, energy and passion for the comic medium. The diversity of styles, content, ages and viewpoints just show how much people love comics."
- Chris Waterman for Bleeding Cool.com
"Long Beach Comic Con treated the pros and the fans to a real treat. I especially enjoyed the relaxed surroundings and actually got to spend some time with some real special people as well. This is the kind of show we will keep coming back to year after year. congrats to everyone that made it happen."
- Jimmy Palmiotti
"Intimate enough to mingle with the artists, yet big enough to inspire awe.... the LB Comic Con started something that will hopefully continue to grow and inspire year after year!"
- Jim Lujan
"It was a pleasure to attend the Long Beach Comic Convention. What I liked best was how easy it was to get to the convention. The best part of this comic convention was it was about comics!!! The main reason I attended was to browse Artists Alley. I saw all my favorites and noticed a few new ones. I think the venue was perfect. Downtown Long Beach offers a beautiful view to go along with the shopping center around it. Thanks for a great time and I can't wait to attend next year, and many more to come."
- Jarrod Kawashima, Geoffrey's Comics
"A Comic Book Convention with more comic books on the vendor floor than anything else! How refreshing! I loved that I could speak with comic book artists without feeling overwhelmed by humongous crowds."
- Rachel Bieber, City of Torrance Reference Librarian
"You could not have asked for a better comic con, than the Long Beach Comic Con. It being the first year of the show, we (Fiction House Mafia) had no idea what to expect. We had heard the buzz of guests that would appear. J. Scott Campbell, Jeph Loeb, Jim Lee- to name a few. One of the best things about the show is that it was well rounded. Where some of the shows you don't really get the chance to converse with your favorite creators and they managed to pull it off. It was awesome!!! If you're an independent creator take into consideration this convention, because the focus that they put on their booths, artist alley tables, is really second to none. We had an artist alley table and sold out of every book we took."
- Albert Morales (Artist, El Mystico), Fiction House Mafia
"I had such a blast at Long Beach Comic Con! There was a wide variety of things to see and do and a great lineup of guests. As a creator it was a great chance to network with other creators but I also had fun attending the show as a fan!"
- Brendan Creecy

Exclusive Erik Grant is in for a surprise with fellow exclusive Sal, a sex-crazed Latino nympho can`t wait to devour Erik`s hot cock. Ripping off Erik`s jeans, Sal begins to moan as he deep-throats him. Screaming and skin-slapping, Sal gets viciously fucked by Erik until he can barely control himself. Sal continues to get plowed over and over again like a machine that needs more! Erik finally cums over Sal`s open mouth.
Tags: location:362 videos
Erik loves sex. "What's not to love?" he says with a wink. As a student in Philadelphia, he enjoys bike riding, working out, and chillin' with friends. It's his love for being in front of an audience is what lured him into the business. Michael Lucas certainly noticed that, and he noticed just how hot this stud looks when on camera.
Sal was a brave man to take on two of the biggest dicks in the industry -- those owned by Chad Hunt and Ben Andrews -- and it can all be seen in "Encounters: Flash Point." But to the envy of many, he took them on with fervor and impressed everyone with his spunk and, shall we say, flexibility. The reason why this professional chef first got into porn? "The art behind it," he says.

What We Can Insulate
No matter what your home is constructed of, we can help - our USA Premium Foam® insulation can be used in brick, block, stucco, shingle and wood houses, in addition to houses with vinyl or aluminum siding. Plus, it also provides an effective moisture and thermal barrier in basement walls.

Wood and Steel Stud Walls
USA Premium Foam® is ideal for use in both interior and exterior wood frame load bearing wall systems, as well as steel or wood stud party wall partitions. A small hole is drilled into the wall and our injectable insulation is pumped into wall spaces in a liquid form with the consistency of shaving cream, where it flows freely throughout the wall cavity. The foam squeezes into every crack and crevice, and gets in and around wires and pipes unlike any other insulating material. It expands and hardens to form a high-density insulating material with an R-value (insulating effectiveness) of up to 35% higher than other types of insulation. The holes are patched with matching material so that it is virtually invisible.
Brick/Veneer Masonry
USA Premium Foam® can be foamed-in-place between the brick veneer and cement blocks in existing homes. A small hole is drilled in the mortar between the brick/block. The foam is injected into the wall cavity through a foaming hose. As soon as the cavity is filled, the hole is patched with a dyed-matched mortar. The foam reduces infiltration and fills all voids and cracks while easily flowing around all obstructions. It is considerably less expensive than rigid types of insulation. Foundations on homes are insulated by using this process as well.
CMU Block Applications
USA Premium Foam® can be easily and efficiently installed in new or existing masonry construction, either during construction or upon completion. It is the most cost-effective way to increase the thermal performance of this type of construction—more than both core inserts or pour-in products. The total thermal resistance is more than doubled over conventional insulations. Premium Foam meets the requirements and codes for heat loss factor (U value) for wall structures adopted by many State and Federal Agencies. The heat loss is reduced through the mortar joints as well as the block. This is not the case with block inserts.

Melusine (1988)
by Lynne Reid Banks
No current Talk conversations about this book.
With a new cover & jacket blurb, this could be re-released as a paranormal mystery adventure and would likely be a hit. I'm generally not much of a fan of mysteries or 'ghost' stories, but this had interesting characters & some rich, fairly complex ideas. I really liked how the climax wasn't the ending - all the loose ends had to be dealt with in a fully fitting fashion, and some of them, in the interests of verisimilitude, had to be left untied.
By the author of The Indian in the Cupboard books; I didn't read this one when I was younger, but I enjoyed it belatedly!

Roger, his parents, and twin sisters arrive at this crumbling ruin in the wilds of France, anticipating a holiday that's "different." And so it proves, but not as they'd hoped. The owner, the strange daughter Mesuline, whom Roger first meets tending her father's goats. She is like no girl he has ever seen, with her brusqueness and her expressionless black eyes, and as he gradually befriends her, he begins to realize that there is something very wrong about her, about the chateau, and about her life within it.

I'll be travelling to the communist state of California soon as well, although I am flying. Guess I'll be leaving the protection at home. :\
The ammo needs to be separated from the handgun by a lock. It cant be the glove box. Cable lock the Gun box and put the ammo in the center console. If you get stopped you are transporting the firearm to your hotel. You cant just be out driving around with it.
This is from memory as I'm too lazy to go look it up.

San Diego is not a very gun-friendly part of the state so they aren't used to anyone but the bad guys having the guns. (Well, on their person that is) As you can see, the desert areas of the state and the far north parts are very used to and supportive of gunowners. Not sure where you're going to pattywak but here's a map that shows areas that are better than others.
Rotorblade is correct. And as long as you're traveling with it like he explained, you should be ok even if stopped in San Diego county. Just don't give them any reason to search your trunk.
Thanks for the info. Maybe one day California will be free and become a "shall issue" state and have reprocity with Texas(but I won't hold my breath:) ) because I sure enjoy traveling there and escaping the hot Texas summers.

I can't blame people for making fun of how stupid Calif. is in general, but not all of us are blind out here. Believe it or not, it's getting better. Look at Sacramento County. I was actually floored when I heard that they were going to begin issuing licenses. A couple of days ago I talked to a lady that I know through work. She's in sales and travels up my way about once every couple of months. She said that they actually had to put a hold on issuing licenses due to the overwhelming response from the people who live there. Sac. Co. of all places. Can you believe it?!
Not sure, but doesn't CA also have a 10 round magazine limit that will play into it also?
There are a lot of places I would like to visit in California ,,,,, but regretfully ,,,, I
WILL NOT BE GOING THERE,,,,, it is to much of a communist state.

Dead Rising 2
Question from AnatarX
Head Trauma / Hockey Mask / Melee Weapons?
For the achievement Head Trauma you have to use every melee weapon in the game. Once you've done this you unlock the hockey mask to wear. The question is, is there a list anywhere of all the melee weapons? Does melee weapon just mean anything you can physically swing at a zombie including chairs, signs and plantpots or is it easier and more specific than that? Anyone know, done it or have a list?
6 years ago
well i try everything i can find for Example. use all available weapon on royal flush then go to the next area until you finish all of it. cuz what i did is i get the weapon and trow it at zombie then poof after 6hours of playing it i finally got it lol.

What list if any did you use Shockwave962? Because I have been up and down and still cannot unlock the achievement.

ok thanks. If this list is complete then I think all I've missed is the comedy trophy. I'll do that soon.
6 years ago
Ok I just used the comedy trophy and got the mask. It looks good but the fact that it doesnt have straps to hold it on is just stupid. You shave your head and the mask just sits on your face and without the staps it doesnt look right. I'm pretty sure the mask on the first game had straps.

Broom Handle and Long Stick? if its different than the Push Broom can someone tell me were to get them at?
6 years ago
For people asking about the broom handle, hit zombies with the push broom and eventually the brush head will break off giving you the broom handle weapon. I believe the sharp stick weapon can be found in the large planter to the left of the elevators in the hotel (where you find the undressed girl who makes you change to your underwear).

Remeber you only have to hit the zombie with a melee attack and not kill it.

There is a nice list in the strat guide with every item weapon and location, it even says if the weapon is ranged thrown firearm explosive or melee, really a great guide
6 years ago
Yes, anything that you can melee a zombie with. Which includes the 4-5 types of chairs, the signs, the 6-8 different plants, and of course crap like Cardboard Boxes and the Military Cases(which you can only get to spawn during Case 5-1 and beyond). Thankfully, combo weapons don't count.

Im having trouble with this. I kno Ive used everything on the list and still havent gotten it, ive read it doesnt have to be done in one playthrough, and some have said you dont even have to kill the zombie , even though ive been trying to do that...this is driving me crazy and i need some help...i mean serioulsy, killing a zombie with a foam hand? any advice would help, thanks
6 years ago
I don't see the "Funny Painting" on that list, there. You may be missing that. I read somewhere that you needed it for the achievement, but I haven't confirmed it yet, as I'm still trying to get that one unlocked myself. If you're doing the "Father of the Year" thing with it, then from what I understand, you can just throw it at a zombie so you don't wreck the painting and make it unacceptable as a gift for Katey.

Minnesota's Sno-Pac Foods becoming a well-loved brand
Ever done a frozen-pea tasting? Yeah, me neither, until the other day when I fired up every burner on the old Caloric and set four pots of water to boil. I steamed four bags of peas and started sampling, sipping water between bites as if conducting a wine tasting. (No spitting, though—we could all use a few more vegetables in our diets, no?) At one point I became so engrossed in the tasting process that I didn't immediately notice that a flame had started singeing the elbow of my sweater.
That sounds even more ridiculous when I consider what you're thinking: Aren't all frozen vegetables the same? Better tasting than canned, inferior to fresh, and otherwise what is there, really, to say about them?
That's what I thought, too, until I tasted four brands of frozen peas side by side and found a few subtle but distinct differences. One batch was muddy tasting, with thick skins; another was mealy, the flavors flat; a third was okay, but far less vibrant than the fourth, whose juicy pop released a sweet, grassy—practically fresh—pea taste. After tasting subsequent batches of green beans, broccoli, and sweet corn, a winner emerged: Minnesota's very own Sno-Pac Foods bested the standard supermarket stuff: Green Giant, Birdseye, and Roundy's house brand.
Sno-Pac is a family-owned farm and processing plant in southeastern Minnesota, near Caledonia, that has been selling frozen organic produce since long before hippies launched the movement's 1970s boom. More precisely, the fourth-generation family business predates the popularization of farm chemicals and never made the switch. Last summer, Pete Gengler showed me around his family's plant and explained that his forebears had self-certified the farm as organic back in the mid-'50s by adhering to the principles of sustainable agriculture outlined in J.I. Rodale's Organic Gardening magazine. That was several decades before the third-party inspection system, by which they are now certified, came into existence.
But let's back up a little further, to when the Gengler family got its start in the freezing business. In the early 1900s, Pete Gengler's great-grandfather decided to supplement his lumber business income by harvesting pond ice and storing it to ship to hotter Southern climes. As the ice business grew, the Genglers started shipping locally grown turkeys by packing them in shaved pond ice—the "snow" that launched Sno-Pac's frozen-food business. When mechanical refrigeration became available in the 1930s, the family started processing fruits, and later vegetables, grown on its farmland.
Today, Pete Gengler works with his brother, sister, and two nephews to farm about 2,000 acres and run the processing business. Sno-Pac contracts with farmers who till about 1,000 more acres, mostly around the Midwest, to grow organic produce, and distributes its products nationally as well as to Canada and Japan. In addition to its Sno-Pac brand, the company produces product for supermarket private labels and other producers of organic food, including Amy's and Gerber. "We make a lot of baby food," Gengler remarks.
Gengler, who looks very much a working farmer with a face as weathered as his jeans, has been in the fields since he was sent out to pick strawberries as a five-year-old. Gengler keeps close tabs on every aspect of the business; he's constantly walking the floor of the processing facility or out checking his crops. Picking at peak maturity is crucial, especially for vegetables like peas, he says, which can become overripe within a day.
Gengler says the area's rich, mineral-packed soil gives the vegetables their excellent flavor—there's such a thing as terroir for peas, essentially. And research suggests that natural growing conditions may also be a factor, as crops grown using nitrogen fertilizers tend to draw considerably more water compared to organics, thereby diluting the crop's nutrients and sugars, making them less healthful and flavorful.
Sno-Pac's harvest season kicks off with peas in June and finishes with heartier carrots, potatoes, cranberries, and squash in the fall. They process about 15 types of fruits and vegetables, but peas, green beans, and corn are the staples.
The Genglers have been growing edamame long before it rose to popularity alongside the sushi craze of the past two decades. "No one knew what it was," Gengler says. "They didn't want to eat soybeans—they'd say 'that's animal food.'" Over the years, he says, supply and demand for vegetables has stayed more constant than fruit. When blueberries' antioxidant properties were touted a few years ago, increased demand caused their price to double. But Gengler says the biggest spike in Sno-Pac's business occurred in the '80s during the Alar scare, when panicked Americans suddenly turned to organic foods.
Sno-Pac employs about 35 full-time workers plus about 20 part-timers during peak harvest, who, when I stopped by in August, were hard at work processing green beans. One major challenge with growing organic crops is combating weeds, which was evident at Sno-Pac's facility. I watched as the beans were washed outdoors by a large machine and then screened by employees stationed along a conveyer belt who removed weeds by hand, along with inferior beans.
Inside, the beans are cut, blanched, and flash frozen by spending just a few minutes at temperatures around 15 to 20 degrees below zero. My favorite part of the process was watching a video game-like machine perform quality control. As the beans raced along a conveyor belt, the machine scanned their shape and color to distinguish properly cut, unblemished beans from undesirable ones or weeds. When it identified a foreign object, the machine deployed a puff of air to shoot it out of the batch—like playing Space Invaders with button weeds subbing for alien ships. Next, the beans were scanned by a metal detector and then hauled to a nearby packaging facility, where they are sealed in plastic bags. Gengler estimates that Sno-Pac packs more than 10 million pounds of produce a year.
Sno-Pac controls just a few percent of the frozen organics market, overshadowed by the dominant player, Cascadian Farms, which has been a subsidiary of General Mills since 1999. Still, Sno-Pac has a strong presence on local co-op shelves and a loyal following. "It's the most famous and well-loved of the frozen brands I have," says Paul Barnum, who buys Sno-Pac for the Seward Co-Op. "Sno-Pac is the king."
Barnum says local, sustainable foods have increasingly become more important to shoppers than organic certification, and he points out that several of the other frozen organic brands his co-op carries import vegetables grown all over the world. The shipping requirements of that business model start to look a lot like that of large, conventional agricultural operations that co-ops eschew. Both in terms of food miles and bolstering local economies, Barnum says, it doesn't make any sense to buy Chinese-grown edamame when Sno-Pac offers a local product. Plus, "I think [Sno-Pac's] is the best tasting," he says. Nate Oerter, frozen-food buyer for the Wedge, agrees: "Their quality is superior to Cascadian Farms, and their price is better," he says.

Southwestern Historical Quarterly
This view comes across most clearly when Kolodny lets the women
speak for themselves in brief excerpts from their writings. When we
read Mary W. Rowlandson's 1682 account of her captivity by the Nar-
ragansett Indians in Massachusetts, or Caroline M. Kirkland's accounts
of frontier life in Michigan, we are struck by the profound differences
between women's and men's lives on the frontier. In some ways
women's lives were harder, lonelier, less free. Women were often con-
fined to airless, windowless cabins with sick children and back-
breaking domestic drudgery. They neither dreamed about nor ac-
complished mastery over the land.
Kolodny shows that with the movement of the frontier beyond the
Ohio Valley and out onto the open, parklike prairies, women's public
and private documents at last began to claim the land as their own.
From 183o to I86o, women rejected male fantasies in their writings
about the West and set about to establish their own vision.
Mary Austin Holley's promotional writings about Texas were
among the first to do just this. Holley (Stephen F. Austin's cousin)
offered women an attractive domestic view of Texas, where the civiliz-
ing influences of women's homes, families, and gardens were most de-
cidedly felt, and the openness of the prairies gave the " 'appearance of
vast parks, with ornamental trees artificially arranged to beautify the
project"' (p. 97). Similarly, Eliza W. Farnham's writings about Illinois
compare the landscape to a " 'strong and generous Parent' " (p. 97).
It was this view, Kolodny believes, that finally lured more and more
women west and made them more willing partners in the frontier ad-
venture. "For pioneer women . . . the proverbial Garden of the West
pointed not simply to a fertile landscape, but to a complex integration
of home and community made possible by that fertility" (p. 12).
