Former MP Craig Thomson sentenced to three months' jail
- From: Herald Sun
- March 25, 2014
HE has been found guilty and jailed but Craig Thomson still maintains he didn't do it.
The former federal MP will spend three months in jail for spending union funds on prostitutes, porn and personal expenses.
Thomson was today sentenced to 12 months' jail, with nine months suspended for two years.
He was granted bail and will appear in the Victorian County Court on November 24 to appeal both his conviction and sentence.
Walking from the Metropolitan Remand Centre Thomson, where he spent two hours in custody, Thomson told a waiting media pack he was unhappy with today's outcome.
"I have always maintained my innocence to the charges I've been convicted of which is why we've appealed," he said.
"Despite some misreporting, there has never been admission of facts in relation to this.
"We look forward to going ahead in terms of the appeal.
"It is inappropriate for me, or for anyone else…to be making comment in relation to this matter."
Thomson thanked his wife, ex-wife, family and friends for their support since he was charged last January.
He did not take questions from reporters.
Thomson has surrendered his passport, but is not required to report to police.
Thomson, 49, was found guilty of 65 dishonesty charges over the misuse of $24,538 while the national secretary of the Health Services Union (HSU) and a Labor MP.
Magistrate Charlie Rozencwajg was scathing of Thomson's conduct.
"The offences exhibit a brazen arrogance and sense of entitlement when dealing with the funds of union members for your own personal needs," he said.
"It matters not that many of the offences relate to the payment for sexual services but that does go to highlight the selfish personal ends for which these offences were committed.
"Nothing has been put before me to suggest that these offences were committed for anything other than greed."
He said while the offences did not require planning or organisation, they were committed in a way that showed Thomson's lack of concern for being accountable to the union.
"In fact accountability in the national office of the HSU is not something I saw much of in the evidence led before this court.
"For this blatant dishonesty to continue on a regular basis over a period of years says much about the lack of accountability.
"I can only conclude that you were well aware that you had little to be concerned about as far as being brought to account for the commission of these offences."
Mr Rozencwagj said Thomson's gross breach of trust was not lessened because he was not an MP at the time.
"As the national secretary of a union funded by the fees paid by members from their wages you were charged to protect and advance the interest of those members in the industrial sphere.
"To use those funds in the manner in which you did represents a breach of trust of the highest order."
Thomson's lawyers argued he should be spared jail as he has a major depressive illness and can never again enter public life because of the case.
The former Dobell MP was last month found guilty of 65 charges of obtaining property by deception and theft, after he spent more than $5500 on escorts and made cash withdrawals worth $6250 between 2002 and 2008.
Thomson has agreed to repay the misused funds and has been formally ordered to do so by the magistrate.
Mr Rozencwajg stressed during sentencing that it was important the equal justice applied to all people including politicians.
The sentencing comes five years after allegations Thomson siphoned hundreds of thousands of dollars of HSU funds for personal use were first made public.
Whistleblowers Kathy Jackson and Marco Bolano are in court to watch Thomson's sentencing.
Thomson persistently denied the allegations of dishonesty, accusing others of using his union issued credit cards and arguing he was the victim of an elaborate setup by union rivals.
In an impassioned speech to Parliament Thomson hit out at the media for unleashing a "lynch mob" and talked of "phone cloning" to explain how records linked his personal mobile to escorts.
Even after he was charged with more than 170 offences in January last year, he continued to publicly deny the allegations.
They were denials he had a hard time convincing the public were plausible.
He had a harder time proving it in court.
During a lengthy contested hearing dozens of witnesses gave evidence against Thomson.
They came under cross-examination by his lawyer, prominent QC and former NSW Supreme Court judge Greg James.
They almost all agreed that there were no written policies for how union funds should be used while Thomson was in charge between 2002 and 2008.
But it was widely accepted that union funds were only to be used to help members.
It was something one former HSU colleague, Nurten Ungun, said Thomson had instructed staff on.
"Mr Thomson told us it was for work-related expenses," Ungun said.
Ungun said Thomson had once reprimanded her for using a credit card on flights and accommodation for a personal trip.
Ungun said she repaid the money to the union before resigning the following day.
HSU bookkeeper Belinda Ord said Thomson later told her to write guidelines on credit card usage after another staff member had signed up to an astrology service.
Some of the most damning evidence against Thomson went unchallenged.
Dozens of statements were tendered by agreement between prosecutors and defence counsel, and did not come under cross examination.
Among them was one from a former prostitute who detailed a string of meetings with Thomson.
"The only times we met was when he wanted a sexual service," Mary Smith said.
Smith, who used the name Misty while working, said she met Thomson on a string of occasions while she was working at Room Services Escort agency in Sydney's Surry Hills between 2007 and 2008.
He had introduced himself as "Craig", a solicitor from the Central Coast of New South Wales.
The only ever met for either late night or early morning encounters, and he was not kinky.
"Sex always occurred on the bed and he would shower before and afterwards," she said.
"On the occasions when Craig and I met as part of my services he started by offering me a glass of champagne.
"From memory he already had the champagne ready in the room."
Ms Smith said she met Thomson on a number of occasions before he asked for her direct number so he could bypass booking her through an agency.
She said while she felt uncomfortable with the proposition, she agreed. They met on about six occasions, she said.
"He was a person who I noticed did not wear a wedding ring and did not speak of having a wife or whether he was in any form of committed relationship," she said.
"He was one of three men who I would have called a regular client."
Ms Smith said Mr Thomson would regularly extend her booking time, but would never have sex twice in one booking.
"This was often just for the purpose of talking," she said.
Ms Smith said after leaving the sex industry in 2008 she was shocked to see Thomson denying using escorts on TV.
"It was only after seeing his appearance on TV ... I realised the Craig I had been seeing as an escort is definitely Craig Thomson the politician," she said.
"I was shocked to see this situation occur but I have seen him on TV and in the media deny that he used the services of prostitutes.
"He is lying. I am in no doubt that the Craig I performer a number of sexual services for over a period of time is Craig Thomson the politician."
In the fallout of the allegations Thomson lost his electoral seat of Dobell at last year's federal election.
It is just one in a string of devastating blows to Thomson's life, his lawyer told a plea hearing last week.
His family had suffered an endless invasion of privacy and he had no prospects of a career.
Thomson's sentence is unlikely to be the end of the sordid affair with a Federal Court action on foot and HSU officials vowing to try and recover almost $400,000 from him.

Many Houstonians will remember Thom Marshall who was a Chronicle columnist for several years. He is retired and was living in Kansas the last I heard. Thom once wrote a column about his skin color that I really liked.
What gave him the idea, he was doing some house painting, or maybe having it done, and one day he found himself studying a fan of color samples. I don't know the proper name of such an object. It consists of a multitude of cardboard strips of various colors. The samples open up like a fan. You see them in paint stores, where people are choosing what color to paint the living room.
Thom, who had been calling himself a white man all his life, tried to match his skin color to one of those paint samples and discovered, as he said, that he was not white. I don't recall what color he matched but it wasn't white.
What got me onto this today, I was looking in a closet for something I'd lost and found one of those paint sample fans. Didn't know we had one. It got me thinking about my old friend Thom and that column he wrote. I tried to match my own skin and found out I'm also a long way from white. The closest I came was a strange color called yellow squash. That's the color of the inside of my forearm. In other places I match up with colors like cloudy gray and even strawberry yogurt. I held the samples against my partner's forearm. She matches up with mystic beige.
This color fan has dozens of shades of white, but not one comes close to matching my hide anywhere.

Tank-Side Skimmers
Tank side coalescing oil skimmers sit outside the tank and, unlike belt or disk skimmers, remove emulsified oils as well as the free floating oils. They can run continuously without overflowing, keeping the coolant moving and aerated. Over time a tank side oil skimmer will remove more oil than a belt or disk skimmer. Coolant Consultants offers three different brands of tank-side oil removal systems: Keller, PhaSep, and Zebra.
Keller offers three models of the TKO Tramp Oil Skimmer which rapidly sweep out tramp oil, cleaning and aerating entire sumps.
Keller magnetic frame, in-line bag filter, additional inlet devices, and replacement filters
Positive coolant flow, superior float design, and simple oil separation are key success factors of the PhaSep Coalescer Tramp Oil Removal Systems. PhaSep Coalescers are designed with all steel construction; no media to replace or dispose of!
The Zebra Muscle™ Flexor™ Coalescer Z17 tramp oil separator will aerate, filter, and separate coolant from tramp oil so that your coolant lasts longer. Can be run 24 hours a day - 7 days a week without overflowing tramp oil container!
Zebra Z17 Muscle™ Flexor™ intake attachments, drum dolly, and accessories

The Cape may get another microbrewery if all the approvals go through for Barnstable Brewery planned for 485 W. Main St., Hyannis. The brewery got its first approvals Jan. 19 from site plan review for its plans to convert the former building of Cape Cod Commercial Linen Service.
Owner Peter Connor and his engineer, Dan Ojala, agreed to all the recommendations of the committee involving the building exterior, such as drainage, lighting, parking, fire truck access and landscaping. The next step will be an application for a conditional use special permit from the zoning board of appeals, which has not been submitted.
The plan calls for converting the 5,800-square-foot building for producing hand-crafted beer and a small tasting area with seating for 12. Interior plans will be reviewed by the health department later in the process. Connor, who has had a home in Yarmouth Port since 2000, has not set an opening date for the business.

Five Reasons Why It's Lonely at the Top
By M. Ena Inesi of London Business school and Adam D. Galinsky of Kellogg Graduate School of Business
Power is coveted, sought, and tightly held onto. From the animal kingdom to all human societies, power is the currency of success.
However, the very nature of power and its psychological effects often leave the powerful feeling lonely at the top.
We list five ways in which power perverts, contorts and undermines a number of psychological processes that normally nurture close connections and form the foundation of healthy relationships.
1. Power alters our beliefs about others' generosity. When people do nice things for us, we automatically devise an explanation for their behavior: Why did they go out of their way to help me? What is their motivation?
Often this process is so quick and automatic that we don't even realize we are doing it, but despite its subtlety, it has dramatic implications for how our relationships develop and how close or connected to others we remain.
Typically, our theories for why people do nice things for us reflect well on the giver and portend good things for the relationship. We often think: "Because this person really likes and cares about me. Because this is a kind and trustworthy person." Thus, we often see others through a beneficent lens.
However, one's own power represents a compelling alternative explanation for what appears to be another person's generosity.
When individuals have power, they know they are more likely to be the target of opportunists, who use kind words and seemingly selfless acts not for altruistic reasons but to further their own selfish goals.
It is this alternative explanation that always exists for the powerful and leads them to become more suspicious of others' seemingly generous acts.
Of course this jaundiced view of other's intentions can be functional–who wants to develop a relationship with a selfish sycophant?–but those in power often over-apply this principle and become more suspicious of any kind acts they are offered, irrespective of the source.
In one study, we asked people to recall the most recent favor they had received and who had done it for them. Most people wrote about favors from friends or family, such as a ride to the airport or taking care of a child.
Importantly, there were no systematic power dynamics described in these descriptions.
Then we randomly assigned half the participants to complete an exercise that would make them feel powerful and half to complete a neutral exercise. When we then asked everyone to think back to the favor they had described earlier and report why they thought the favor-giver had acted thus, we found that feelings of power dramatically altered reactions to the favor.
Simply making people feel powerful made them more likely to report that the favor had been selfishly motivated. Those in power saw, for example, a friend's favor through a cynical lens, as being driven by more opportunistic and conniving intentions.
2. Power affects our responses to the kind acts of others. Our beliefs about the motivations behind the actions of others ultimately drive disconnection because they inform our responses to gestures.
One of the most basic and critical responses to others' generosity is to reciprocate with generous gestures of our own. Reciprocity, the social norm that people should do unto others as others have done to them, has been identified as a key component of relationships – from Roman times by the philosopher Cicero to more recently by sociologists such as Alvin Gouldner – and even of a stable society, because it creates social equilibrium and cohesion.
However, we only reciprocate favors that we think were done for our benefit and not for the favor-giver's ulterior motives. For example, if a work colleague stays late to help you out on a joint project that was important to her own success, you will feel less compelled to reciprocate than if that colleague had stayed late to help on a project she wasn't part of and thus wouldn't personally benefit from the project's success.
Those in power are less likely to reciprocate because they tend to believe that the favors they have received were selfishly motivated. If we return to the work example, and add our knowledge from point 1 above, then we may begin to see how the powerful can become the architects of their own loneliness.
Let's say a colleague stays at work late to help you on a project that she's not associated with. She saw you could use some help and offered to stay a few extra hours. Our findings suggest that – even if this person's motivation in doing the favor is completely benevolent, only driven by true generosity – this person's hierarchical position in the organization relative to you will affect your response. If this person is junior to you in the organization, you will be less likely to reciprocate than if this person were a peer. This lack of reciprocity means that if a similar situation emerged sometime later you would be less likely to help this junior person in a similar situation.
Because of the cynical attributions that power inspires. Your power over the junior person makes you more likely to believe she did the initial favor for selfish reasons and therefore is less deserving of reciprocity. Moreover, by failing to reciprocate the favor, you will be keeping distance between yourself and your more junior co-workers.
3. Power reduces trust It has been said that love makes the world go around, but when we speak of the quality of our relationships with others, it may be more accurate to say that it is really trust that is the engine of effective social relationships.
When we trust someone, we believe that the person will act in our best interest, even when we are not there to monitor their behavior. At work, interpersonal trust can be hugely beneficial, not only because it feels better to work with people you trust, but also because it saves time and effort. For example, if you trust that your co-workers are not working on their own agenda and to your disadvantage, you don't need to obsessively attend to their communications with others.
Trust doesn't just happen though; it develops. By exchanging small vulnerabilities back and forth–a favor received, an embarrassing disclosure revealed–two individuals build a relationship characterized by ever greater trust.
Power puts a wrench in that process by creating a reason to mistrust others' kind acts. The powerful generate cynical attributions for others' kind deeds and fail to reciprocate with actions that display their own vulnerability, thereby stunting the possibility for a trusting relationship to develop.
4. Power reduces commitment. The word commitment, as it applies to interpersonal relationships, generally brings to mind images of romantic attachment. To demonstrate that our theory affects not only work interactions, but also personal relationships, we looked at how power may create loneliness in marriages.
We asked married individuals to think about a specific favor that their spouse had done for them, to answer why they thought the spouse had done the favor, and then to report how committed they were to the relationship.
At the end of the study, each married participant indicated who earned more income: the respondent, the spouse or about the same. Income has been cited across many literatures as a source of power, both inside and outside marriages.
Indeed, we found that spouses who earn more felt more powerful in their marriages compared to those who earned the same or less than their spouse.
Consistent with our theory, participants who earned more than their spouse, and thus had more power in the relationship, were more suspicious of their spouse's motives in offering the favor.
Remarkably these cynical attributions, which appear to be part and parcel of having power, led the high income earners to feel less committed to their marriage relationship. Thus, the very state of being powerful causes individuals to feel less connected to others, even to one's own spouse.
5. Power damages relationships in the very moments when they have the greatest potential to develop. The dynamics we have outlined above present the possibility that powerful people are just generally suspicious of others. Whether instrumental or beneficent, those who interact with power-holders will be perceived as having more suspect motives.
Interestingly, this doesn't appear to be the case.
In one study, we asked participants about a peer or a subordinate who had either done a favor for the participant or just done required work. It turned out that participants trusted subordinates less than equal-powered peers only after receiving a favor, but not after receiving required work.
These results mean that those in power are not necessarily walking around every day feeling suspicious of their colleagues. Rather, it is in the very moment that someone tries to establish closeness through generous acts and unsolicited favors that power gets in the way.
Overall, power weaves a jaundiced and cynical psychological web. In the face of favors, the powerful see selfishness, refuse to reciprocate, strangle trust, and ultimately feel less committed. It is these psychological and social processes that leave the powerful sitting ever more alone at the top.
What can you do about this?
Many of these psychological processes occur outside of conscious awareness and it can be difficult to reign in. However, one potential step is to increase awareness of the different spheres and roles you take on in your life—manager, colleague, parent or friend—and the different psychological states you inhabit in each.
Instead of instinctively and unconsciously drawing cynical explanations, take a step back and try and to truly discern where the generosity came from. Look for patterns in this person's behavior—are they generally generous or do they only help me just before the want something from me?
By bringing more conscious awareness to the situation, individuals have greater capacity to differentiate the generous from the sycophantic.
It is also important to note that favors motivated by selfish intentions are not necessarily to your disadvantage in the short term. So while you still may want to exercise caution in exposing your own vulnerabilities to such favor-givers, reminding yourself to say "thank you" and showing your appreciation in small ways can do wonders to create a more positive working relationship.
Another key solution is to avoid carrying feelings of power from one context into another in which one's power is less relevant.
We know whenever people feel powerful, even in the absence of actual power they demonstrate greater suspicion of the favors of others. Therefore, a conference call from home with a subordinate, in which power is relevant, may affect your behavior with your children or your spouse just after you hang up.
Create cues that remind you to shake off one role and engage in the mindset appropriate to the current context. A brief pause to remind yourself of this process, or thinking of a memory with your children or spouse, can often do the trick.
Awareness of this psychological lens that power provides can be the key to feeling socially connected without leaving oneself overly exposed to selfish sycophants. By doing so, the powerful can sit at the top, neither lonely nor vulnerable.

From my family's crash course in elder care, I've learned that every day is an improvisation and every plan needs its own plan B. I've also learned that I can be a feisty advocate, and an ineffective one too.
After my 96-year-old Nana sustained a treacherous fall, my mother and I visited her in a Florida hospital, where she stared at the ceiling and remarked on the spectacular mosaics above her.
"This is such a gorgeous room," she said. "I don't think I've ever been here before."

Never miss another 'VivaSantana' show
"This seven piece band take you through the Santana years with a stunningly emotive show. From Santana 1, Abraxas and Moonflower to the recent hits from Supernatural, Shaman and All That I Am. It's all here, from the powerful 4 piece rhythm section that creates the heartbeat of the band, to the infectious Cuban piano and haunting Hammond organ wizardry. Put this together with soulful vocal melodies sung in the native languages of the Americas and you experience the excitement and raw emotion of a Santana concert."
Info provided by the Event Organiser
This phenomenal 6 piece Latin rock explosion continues to amaze fans wherever they present their celebration of the music of the legendary Carlos Santana. It's all there, from the powerful 4 piece rhythm section that brings the heartbeat of the band that is congas, timbales, drums and bass, to the infectious Cuban piano and haunting Hammond organ wizardry of a truly gifted keyboard maestro.
The famous soulful vocal melodies complete what was recently described by Classic Rock Magazine as 'One of the top 5 must-see tributes in the UK', though the tag of 'tribute band' just doesn't do this group of musicians justice.

text: They say perfect is the enemy of the rideable. Such was the axiom of the '86 Sportster known affectionately as 'The Roach.' She was the kind of bike you needed when the enemy was in the wire; when they had breached the perimeter; when they were a fixed bayonet away from the command and control hootch. The Roach liked these times the best. Superficially patinated with the neglect of three decades, her rusted tins belied her pristine guts. Oversized forged pistons, clearances cases, and back-cut tranny gave her both the lungs and legs of the finest thoroughbred. Though originally crafted for the asphalt, the Roach had become quite adept doing dirt. 19″ rims, shod with virtually unobtainable Maxxis DTR1s, let her easily blur the line between civilized and savage. And in these 'endest' of days, the blurring of lines is what it is all about.

Top 10: Traits Of A Real Man
Do You Have The Traits Of A Real Man?
Page 2 of 3
Trait No. 4: A real man doesn't gossipA real man follows omerta; he keeps his mouth shut. He shelters information and rations his words. A real man does not reveal more than he has to and doesn't engage in girlie talk about others. A real man doesn't discuss things he doesn't know about or people he has never met.
Trait No. 5: A real man's word is his bondWhen a real man makes a promise, he keeps it. If he can't keep a promise, he doesn't give his word. A real man would rather die than break his word. A real man knows that his words are as powerful as his actions, and that they must be taken at face value. That is why he rations them (see above).
Trait No. 6: A real man strives to be a role modelA real man respects himself and others at all times, unless, of course, he has been disrespected. A real man sets an example for his disciples, and especially for his children. I never bring my work home, so my children only know me as their father and not as a waste management executive. You should do the same; a real man sets the tone for his children and keeps them from discovering that he has weaknesses.
Trait No. 7: A real man makes his own fortuneA real man doesn't settle for handouts or charity when it comes to his personal fortune. A real man isn't satisfied with papa's money. He spits on Lady Luck and decides his own destiny. A real man who inherits goods from his forefathers takes his inheritance and turns it into 10 times what it was.
Trait No. 8: A real man doesn't look like a womanA real man doesn't have piercings and long hair, and he doesn't shave his chest. Manicures, however, are acceptable. Massages from female attendants are also tolerated. A real man knows that, outside of his barber, all his personal hygiene needs must be taken care of by a woman.
A real man has at least three suits (with a mandatory pinstriped one) that cost more than a roomful of escorts. A real man wears a suit at least three times a week. Any man who doesn't know how to tie a tie should hand in his testicoli immediately.
Trait No. 9: A real man keeps his house in orderHave you ever been inside the boss' house? There ain't no pizza boxes sitting around, there ain't no undershirts on the floor, and there sure as hell ain't no unpaid bills being used as beer coasters. No ruler can rule over a territory if he isn't already the master of his own home.
This means you lazy pinheads out there need to stop using machismo as an excuse to live like a bottom-feeder; keep your sty spotless, keep your documents in order and — listen up on this one — clean your freaking suits.
See what you've done? I'm turning into freaking Moses over here. Here's the last trait of a real man...

This resort has had us jump through hoops for 8 years. As a retired, disabled vet. I would think that my fellow citizens would show a little respect. Not this company, they show no mercy. They will lie to your face.
Since 2005 we have been insulted and tricked to go from points to weeks and back with RCI. Nothing works. All we have been trying to do is a have a week each year on our anniversary. After 8 years and 4 contracts we still cannot get what we want.
We have fallen for the developer week lies as well. Our 2012 salesman, Patrick promised us 2 Developer weeks to bring us $3400/year to help with a payment we were already struggling with. We told him we needed a June week and he gave us an off-season one.
When we went back to fix this earlier this year Amy Wear said that Patrick lied to us about the developer week and the company no longer even deals with them. She said we had to go after Patrick about the income he promised independently. We were shocked and furious when she said this. Contacting him was a dead end of course.
Amy only made things worse too. She took us back to one week every 3 years just to save on fees and charged us $6000 more dollars. I think it will take a while for $6000 to make up for fees we saved.
Do not do business with these people. We are taking our contracts to the government and authorities for assistance. These guys need to be stopped. I am a retired, disabled vet on a fixed income and this company is bleeding me.

In Charge and Therefore Large
The figurative big man on campus may think he's a literal big man, too — and your boss may overestimate her height.
To study the effects of power on perception, researchers measured the height of 100 male and female participants, gave them a bogus test purportedly measuring leadership ability, and then assigned them to serve as either a manager or an employee in a role-playing task. The assignment was random but the participants were told it was based on leadership potential, and the role-playing task never actually happened. After this set-up, participants gave personal information, including their height.
There was no difference in the actual height of the two groups. But the "high-power" participants rated themselves as taller than they actually were, and they provided estimates larger than those given by the "low-power" participants.
In a related experiment, 98 other people were either asked to think about a time when they held power over someone else or when someone held power over them. Then they chose an avatar to represent themselves in a video game. Controlling for the participants' actual height, people who had thought about wielding power chose taller avatars.
All sorts of follow-up research projects suggests themselves, the authors of this study write:
An interesting direction for future research would be to determine whether associations between power and size extend to other self-perceptions and self-categorization. When individuals elevate themselves physically, they not only shape how observers view their level of power relative to other individuals' levels of power … but also, as our findings suggest, shape their self-views as powerful people. Thus, researchers could investigate the possibility that people who are short of stature might attempt to capture a sense of personal power by seeking out opportunities to physically elevate themselves relative to other people … By extension, controlling individuals' physical positioning may be a relatively inexpensive and non-intrusive way to empower them and thereby fundamentally transform their psychological states. Hence, it may also be possible to situate people in higher places (e.g., an office in the top floor of the building) to raise their psychological sense of power.

Rio de Janeiro ATTRACTIONS See all
Rio Niteroi Bridge
Officially named for former Brazilian president Lucio Costa e Silva, the bridge rises to 236 feet at its highest point and was the world's second-longest span when it opened in 1974, trumped at the time only by Louisiana's Lake Pontchartrain causeway. While not as picturesque an experience as the ferry link across the bay, the views from the bridge heading west into Rio are still stunning, with downtown Rio, Sugar Loaf, and Corcovado all striking a picture postcard pose. Scores of low-flying jets landing at nearby Santos-Dumont airport every few minutes also add to the spectacle.

MOSCOW: Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukraine's president-elect Petro Poroshenko met Friday during D-Day events in Normandy and called for an end to bloodshed and violence on both sides, Putin's spokesman said.
"Putin and Poroshenko called for the soonest possible end to bloodshed in southeastern Ukraine, and to military operations on both sides -- both by the Ukrainian armed forces and by supporters of the federalisation of Ukraine," Dmitry Peskov was quoted as saying by Interfax news agency.
"They also confirmed that there was no alternative to resolving the situation with peaceful political methods," Peskov said.
Peskov said the Ukrainian and Russian leaders held a brief "standing up" conversation along with French President Francois Hollande and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, among leaders marking the 70th anniversary of D-Day in northern France. (AFP)

I came across a recipe on Pinterest for Fried Pretzel Coated Chicken with Honey Dijon Sauce. Now I'm from Philly and we have an unhealthy love for soft pretzels in this city. But we also have a love Hard Pretzels as well. And I love Chicken. So it just seemed like a no-brainer for me to try this. However, I opted to bake the chicken instead of fry it. Trust me, I wanted to fry the chicken. But I'm trying to cut down on calories and make some healthier choices (a girl has to save her calories for cupcakes!) so I decided to bake them and see how they turned out.
I made these Baked Pretzel Coated Chicken Strips before going to Orlando, FL for Food Blog Forum Orlando. There were so many other fabulous food bloggers there and I had the opportunity to meet Angie of Eclectic Recipes! It was a pleasant surprise since I didn't even realize she'd be in attendance. It was so nice to meet her and I look forward to trying out many more of her recipes in the future!
So back to the Pretzel Chicken…let's do it!
(I used this recipe and made a few changes to it)
- 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 2 eggs, whisked
- 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper
- 2 cups pretzels, ground in the food processor (until they are the consistency of bread crumbs)
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
Combine mustard and honey for sauce. Mix well and set aside.
Preheat the oven to about 400 degrees. Combine eggs with spices in a large bowl. Whisk together until everything is incorporated and it looks like scrambled eggs (before you would cook it!).
Using a food processor or Vitamix, turn the Pretzels into crumbs. I think next time I'd probably make them a bit finer, but it still worked well the way mine turned out,.
Dip the chicken into the egg mixture, and then place them into the pretzel crumbs. Make sure that you coat all sides of the chicken in the pretzel crumbs. I like the press down on all sides to make sure it sticks.
Place the pretzel breaded chicken on a greased baking sheet leaving a little room between each strip. I like to cover my baking sheet with foil to make for an easier clean-up!
Bake in a preheated oven for about 25 minutes or until the internal temperature is at 165 degrees.
Remove from the oven and enjoy!
I thought these were pretty good! I would also like to try them fried (how Eleclectic Recipes made them) to see how the baked strips compare, but I thought they were quite tasty for being a lower fat option. I think they'd be a little crunchier if they were fried, but we still enjoyed them. The Honey Dijon Sauce was a lovely addition! I want to try some of these in a wrap with some cheddar cheese, lettuce and ranch!

Ending in Litigation

As one of the many Floridians forced to use Citizens Property Insurance as a last resort, I find the company's practices reprehensible, including the aggressive nature of its defenses against claims.
I have been fortunate enough not to have had to file a claim so far, but others who have not been so lucky have had to not only have their damages repaired out of pocket in order to remain in their homes while awaiting their claims being litigated, they have to engage attorneys at their own expense to fight for their claims.
Now it seems, we are being assessed additional fees (premiums) to pay attorneys to fight against us, adding insult to injury.
If Citizens spent $16 million paying attorney fees because litigations were decided in favor of the claimants, it suggests that too many claims were erroneously denied.
I suggest that Citizens should investigate itself to answer these questions:
Why are so many claims ending in litigation?
Why are so many claims being awarded to the claimants?
Who is responsible for the policies and procedures that created these additional expenses?
I further suggest that Gov. Rick Scott give Citizens a very specific period in which to answer those questions or appoint a legislative committee to perform such a review.

Donald Shanks
Jul. 5, 1940
Queensland, Australia
Apr. 8, 2011
New South Wales, Australia
Opera Singer. He shall be remembered for numerous bass roles both comic and serious. Raised in Queensland, he learned to sing in church choirs, made his professional bow in a 1964 Opera Australia production of Gilbert and Sullivan's "The Mikado", then was to remain with that Sydney-based company throughout his 40-year career. Shanks' signature pieces were to be comedic, Dr. Bartolo from Rossini's "The Barber of Seville" and the title lead of Donizetti's "Don Pasquale" though he portrayed a wide variety of other characters including Oroveso in Vincenzo Bellini's "Norma", Pimen from Modest Mussorgsky's "Boris Godunov" (he was also occasionally Csar Boris), Baron Ochs of Richard Strauss' "Der Rosenkavalier", The Commendatore from Mozart's "Don Giovanni", and Colline in Puccini's "La Boheme". He was to sing several Verdi roles including Banquo in "Macbeth", Zaccharia from "Nabuccho", Pistol in "Falstaff" and Ramphis in "Aida", and was also to assume the bass leads of Richard Wagner's "Tristan und Isolde", "Tannhauser", and "Lohengrin". Besides Opera Australia, Shanks was a regular at Lyric Opera of Queensland, gave performances at Covent Garden, London, was heard at the Paris Opera in the late 1970s, and earned praise with the Canadian Opera during the mid 1980s. He retired in 2004, singing his final performance as "The Mikado". Shanks was designated Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 1975 and was named Officer of the Order of Australia (AO) in 1987; he died of a heart attack. Some of his characterizations are preserved on DVD.

We were there: Schmidt and Jones Awards makes their best high school actor and actress picks for the national competition
Sorry, Beast. Belle is taking the Music Man to Broadway with her.
Emily McIntyre, who played Belle in Coppell High School's Disney's Beauty and the Beast, won the coveted Best Actress award and Drew Shafranek, who played Professor Harold Hill in Lovejoy High School's The Music Man, took Best Actor honors at Lyric Stage's second annual Schmidt and Jones Awards at Irving Arts Center Friday night.
"I'm so honored and humbled," Emily said, her voice which had been so sure in the event's "Be My Guest" opening number, trembling with emotion as she clutched her award after the show. "It's like a little dream going through my head."
Emily and Drew will be among the 60 teens from around the country competing in the National High School Musical Theater Awards in June, taking workshops at New York University that will culminate in a performance at Broadway's Minskoff Theater. Joining them from the Dallas/Fort Worth area will be DSM High School Musical Theatre Awards winners Emily Emmett of Flower Mound High School and Michael Williams of McKinney Boyd High School and Betty Lynn Buckley Award winners Myles Phillips and Chloe Voreis, both of Mansfield High School.
An excited crowd whooped and hollered as each winner in the 14 categories was announced and rewarded with a $500 scholarship at the Schmidt and Jones Awards. They applauded wildly for performances by the casts of the five nominated musicals and again for The Music Man when it was named best musical at the end of the night. And they were quiet and attentive for the videos. One featured the program's namesakes, legendary Texas composers Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt, who remembered how they wrote "How to Remember" for The Fantasticks. The other video was of the performers who won the all-expense paid trip to New York last year, where they met Broadway stars and compete for national prizes.
Coppell High School swept the most awards — five — for Disney's Beauty and the Beast, nabbing two additional acting awards — best actress in a minor role for Jackie Malish and best female ensemble person for Sarah Bauer, who also won for best choreography.
In accepting her best choreography award, Sarah drew laughs for thanking her director and cast for letting her change the choreography "200 million times." (Evidently the 200 millionth time was the charm.)
Lovejoy High School won three for The Music Man, including the best supporting actress award, which went to Drew's younger sister, Erin Shafranek.
Boswell High School, Nimitz High School, R.L. Turner High School, Bishop Lynch High School, Mansfield Summit HIgh School and North Crowley High School each won one apiece. The full list is below.
Stay tuned as we follow Drew, Emily, Michael, Emily, Myles and Chloe on their Broadway adventure and on the PBS documentary, Broadway or Bust, that will be filmed at the New York High School Musical Theater Awards and is already on the schedule to start airing Sunday nights starting Sept. 9.

Until he married some woman who took him for everything he had or so he would like donors to think.
Now he is begging folks to donate thru Paypal to helphim buy a new RV after his was damaged in a storm.
Problem with this whole story is ole Andy had all kinds of items he could sell as well as insurance funds from his truck to get money for new RV.
His wife has come back and she took all the money so where is the money Andy????
It's a total ripoff and scam being run by a lonely guy who's much younger wife left him and took some moeny but he still has a job and lots of items he can sell,long before he has to beg for money from folks that probably can't afford to help this guy.
Rumor has it,he takes the donations and drinks it up.You be the judge but keep your money people.

SUBMITTED: Wednesday, May 15, 2013POSTED: Wednesday, May 15, 2013
This individual Kevin J**** (prospectorguy) is pursuing a personal vendetta against me for some unknown reason. I do not know this man. I have never had any business dealings with him and I certainly have never taken any money from him.
He has made slanderous, untrue and unfounded statements that he can never prove. He has posted a copyrighted picture of my wife that he stole from my blog and posted it here.
I lost an RV in a horrible hailstorm on Easter Sunday 2013. I asked the readership of my 4 year old blog for help and set up a PayPal account. The DONATE button stayed on the blog for 2 weeks and then it was removed because the goal was met. Every nickle collected via these donations went specifically toward the purchase of a used travel trailer to replace the one destroyed during the hail storm.
Kevin J**** needs to respond to the accusations and prove his slanderous lies.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Toyota Retakes Crown as Asia's Biggest Manufacturer
Fueled by the growing optimism in the Japanese government's economic policies, Japanese stock prices have already been pushed up 45% this year, to their highest level since late 2007.
And among the companies leading the charge is none other than the country's biggest auto maker Toyota Motor Corp—its share price soaring 50% this year.
But has the Nikkei's crown jewel driven past Samsung Electronics to reclaim the title of Asia's largest manufacturer in stock market value?
The good news for Toyota is, yes. Though when exactly it may have happened is a little less clear.
According to data provided by FactSet, Toyota surpassed the South Korean conglomerate on Thursday when the market cap of both are converted to U.S. dollars from their respective local currencies.
Toyota's shares gained around 0.3% to close at Y6,450 a share on Thursday. That grew its market value to about Y22.24 trillion—or $218.120 billion, according to FactSet. It was just enough to skid past Samsung. By $28.9 million, to be exact.
Samsung shares edged up 0.53% to 1.508 million won, bringing its market cap to 243.499 trilion won—or $218.091 billion. The gap had narrowed considerably even from just the start of the week when there was a $9 billion gulf at the end of Monday's trading. In dollar terms, Toyota's market cap has grown 10% since the start of the month alone, while Samsung has fallen 2%.
Meanwhile, separate data provided by S&P Capital IQ shows that Toyota has already been ahead of Samsung for at least a week. In fact, it even jumped a spot late last week past BHP Billiton. According to S&P Capital IQ, as of the end of Thursday, Toyota's stock market value was $200.009 billion, or worth about $23.01 billion more than Samsung. The data provider based its dollar-conversion on Thursday's exchange rate.
The data providers use different sources to calculate the number of the companies' outstanding shares.
Regardless, Toyota's revival comes after coping with a tough bout of challenges. The maker of the Camry and Prius was knocked from its perch as Asia's biggest manufacturer by Samsung in late 2011—just as Japan's export-heavy manufacturers were beginning to battle the Thai floods, the second major natural disaster to hobble global production that year, and the strengthening yen's relentless ascent picked up steam.

M&T was established in 2006 by Melissa and Tony Perkins. This shop was originally opened as a part time hobby for Melissa and her husband after they both retired from public jobs. Being located in a prime location for the famous 127 Corridor Yard Sale, they would buy various antiques, collectibles and household items for resale in a store that was only open on a hit and miss basis and during the 127 sale. The hodgepodge country store quickly took off and just a few months later they had normal business hours Thursday-Saturday. It only took one year of being open during the 127 yard sale for the couple to realize they had more than just a part time hobby on their hands. People wanted more from the store and they rose to the challenge. The next year was spent remodeling the current store, adding on a spacious extension and spending lots of time looking for the perfect merchandise for their country and primitive store. Stepping away from the antiques and specializing more in the primitive décor and gifts, M&T has become a big attraction in rural Owen County, KY.
Now, more than five years later, M&T is a favorite of many customers from Owenton and surrounding counties. The 127 Yard Sale has brought many returning customers to the store every year from all over the United States. Many yard salers comment that M&T is one of their favorite stops on the 675 mile stretch of the sale.
M&T carries a wide array of country and primitive décor and gifts including Candleberry Candles, Olde Century Paints, Amish made furniture, lighting, linens, pottery, bathroom and kitchen accessories, pictures, Bella Taylor handbags, bed sets, rugs, seasonal decorations and custom made furniture and accessories by their very own, Tony Perkins. All of their items are hand chosen by Melissa and reasonably priced for their customers.
Owners, Melissa and Tony, enjoy providing their customers with a small town experience when they visit the store. They know all their customers by name and most on a personal level. With their rewards program and birthday discounts for all customers, their patrons feel welcome and appreciated from the first time they walk through the doors. They even ship merchandise to some of their out of town customers that happen upon the store either during travel or on the 127 Corridor route.
From the aroma of the famous Hot Maple Toddy candle to the designing advice youll get from Melissa, M&T is a definite must stop in rural Owen County, KY.

Call 471-6636
I'm a middle-aged woman and I live on Ruth Street. I have nothing against young people and them having fun, but out of respect I think the Department of Public Safety needs to stop the reckless driving, vulgar language coming from the cars and of course, all the noise they are calling music. The children are never in their seats and most of the time they are riding the steering wheel. I've seen an officer go by and never stop any of them. I know your priorities are not to stop people for loud music. Why post the signs? Please Drew Juden, help us out. We don't want to leave our homes. I know you are a very fair man. We're expecting you to do something about this. It is now 3 a.m. and there are about three cars going by my house just booming and booming. There's no way to sleep. I live in the west end and it's getting ridiculous.
Yesterday my child attended her first day of summer school. When it was time for her to come home the bus driver dropped her off at home without checking to see if there was anyone there. He was told that her grandmother would pick her up at Cornerstone Church, to drop her off there with the other children. My mother called me upset that her granddaughter was not at the church drop off and she didn't know where she was. I was in Sikeston with my other daughter at the doctor. She called me and I called the Sheriffs Department in Charleston to get a deputy to go to the bus garage and they told me to call Charleston DPS. I called the DPS and they told me it was the sheriff's problem not theirs. So I called the sheriff back and they said again call the Charleston DPS. If it's not both departments job to help search for a five year old child, then who's is it?
We are concerned parents who would like the person or persons driving up the walkways through the middle of the Sikeston Ball Field to the concession stand during game time to stop. There are always small children playing and running around. Parents and children alike feel like that area is a safe place for playing and having fun. We do understand that the concession stand employee needs to deliver supplies to the concession stand, but since our contributions help pay this employee, deliveries should be done before and after the games. We have noticed that this employee drives through during game times and does not deliver anything. If the employee needs to go from one stand to the other, then they should park and walk. The league needs to enforce this to keep our children safe.
I would like to respond to your column on May 30th. Your caller mentioned maybe voting for Mitt Romney for President. He/she stated that the two most important things to consider for president is character and world view. Caller must not have voted for Bush because his character is, to say the least, shallow and unfeeling and as for his world view, his world is strictly the bubble he is in. I doubt he could name 10 world leaders, much less pronounce or spell their name. As for a "Madam President" being elected; I am a Democrat, but all Democrats haven't decided yet who to vote for. We are going to wait and see what our candidates stand for. It is my opinion that Clinton, Edwards or Obama, our three front runners, each would be a good President. I sincerely hope everyone thinks seriously about who they vote for because the next president is going to have their hands full trying to work our way out of this mess Bush has got us into.
