The cabin is small, and the bathroom is smaller. I would book something bigger if you are tall or large. We aren't but our traveling companions are 6'5" and 5'8" and he didn't really fit in the shower because he couldn't bend over to reach his legs.

Buslady| about 4 years ago
Drivers should never have family members on the bus, to prevent that sort of situation that if their family member got into a fight. My aunt asked me what would I have done if it was my son who was getting clobbered, well of course I'm going to tear into the schmuck who's beating my son, that's mother's instinct. With that aside.... The driver did what he should have. Told them to stop and called for help. If he got into it, and was whacked unconscious, then who's going to protect the rest of the kids? It puts them all in danger.

Summer 2016
All summer courses are open to dually enrolled high school students, college students, and guests. See below for admission. Calvin offers both undergraduate and graduate courses during the summer. Students can generally take up to three regular courses throughout the summer using the calendar below.
Calendar for summer 2016
Traditional 3 and 4 semester hour compressed day-time modules:
- Session 1 (3 hours) - May 24 through June 14 (3 weeks)
- Session 1 (4 hours) - May 24 through June 21 (4 weeks)
- Session 2 (3 hours) - June 22 through July 13 (3 weeks)
- Session 2 (4 hours) - June 22 through July 20 (4 weeks)
- Session 3 (3 hours) - July 25 through August 12 (3 weeks)
Calvin also offers some half-summer evening options.
Online Courses
In addition to the regular on-campus courses, undergraduate online courses are being offered during 2016 summer school. The start and end dates for online courses vary according to the course.
Refund Schedule -- For all online courses, we are planning to use the below scale for determining a student's eligibility for a refund. As you can see, this schedule is based on calendar days counted from the first day of class. So, if a student drops a course during the first 10 days, she would be eligible for a full refund.
1-10 calender days = 100% refund
11-24 = 80%
25-31 = 60%
32-38 = 40%
After 38 days = 0% (No refund)
Drop deadlines -- During the fall and spring semesters, we generally allow students to drop courses until the end of the 9th week of class, which is about 70% of the term. Using a similar formula, we have determined that the last day to drop all online summer courses is Tuesday, July 5, 2016. This is also well coordinated with our refund schedule above.
Requests to drop -- Given the variable nature of the online summer courses and term, please let me know if you hear from students who request to drop your courses. We can evaluate each situation on a case-by-case basis.
Class schedule
The Summer-2016 schedule of courses is posted on Februrary 1. Most will meet from 8:30-11:50 AM, but some will have alternative times.
Admission and registration
Registration for Summer 2016 begins on March 1, 2016 for all students.

Trying to replace rear window defogger relay. Can access panel on drivers side but can't figure how to remove relay. N0 power to rear window and indicator light and heated mirrors.
I've never had to replace this relay, but I presume it's with the power loc k relays I've replaced several times. If that's the case, you may be able to go through the switch panel and grab it with bent needlenose pliers. Ot herwise, you may need to take the left lower dash panel off to access bette r.
On a related note, have you checked the 30A rear defogger fuse in the under hood relay box. That's a much more frequent source of the issue.
replying to hyundaitech , yenoocpb wrote:
-- Yes , the 30 amp fuse as well as the 10 amp fuse for the heated mirrors is good. The rear defogger relay is on same mounting as lock relay. Relay clicks , but no power through it, so was looking for information on moving, or dropping mounting for fuse panel, relay.
thanks for reply

I've testing every option before releasing the update and yes, over here i can change my virtual pro stats. And yes the height and weight changes as well as soon as i'm gonna switch through the tabs but if i save the character immediatly after using the feature, it's saved correctly.

The first two games of the Panthers season brought us hope for the future.
Every pass Cam Newton threw seemed to bury any of the remains leftover from the awful quarterbacking of Jimmy Clausen and Matt Moore.
Every blitz drawn up on defense seemed to be a big middle finger to the conservative drop back coverage schemes that John Fox had implemented over the years.
Every third and eight that was not a draw showed us that the team was not going to give up at the snap of a finger.
But even though the Panthers are doing a lot of things to bury their past, they are still losing like it is September 2010. This team seems to have caught the 2010 Bills disease of giving fans hope by finding a different way to lose just about every week.
But in the first two weeks of the season the Panthers played potential division champions who were supposed to destroy them. This week the Panthers play a team they are better than and a team they are supposed to beat.
Here are four reasons why hope will finally turn into results.

Afghanistan: How the West Lost its Wayby Tim Bird Alex Marshall
In October 2001, NATO forces invaded Afghanistan. Their initial aim, to topple the Taliban regime and replace it with a more democratic government aligned to Western interests, was swiftly achieved. However, stabilizing the country in the ensuing years has proven much more difficult. Despite billions of dollars in aid and military expenditure, Afghanistan remains a nation riddled with warlords, the world's major heroin producer, and the site of a seemingly endless conflict between Islamist militants and NATO forces. In this timely and important book, Tim Bird and Alex Marshall offer a panoramic view of international involvement in Afghanistan from 2001 to 2011. Tackling the subject matter as a whole, Bird and Marshall weave together analysis of military strategy, regional context, aid policy, the Afghan government, and the many disagreements between and within the Western powers involved in the intervention. Given the complicating factors of the heroin trade, unwelcoming terrain, and precarious relations with Pakistan, the authors acknowledge the ways in which Afghanistan has presented unique challenges for its foreign invaders. Ultimately, however, they argue that the international community has failed in its self-imposed effort to solve Afghanistan's problems and that there are broader lessons to be learned from their struggle, particularly in terms of counterinsurgency and the ever-complicated work of "nation-building. " The overarching feature of the intervention, they argue, has been an absence of strategic clarity and coherence.
A Blade of Black Steelby Alex Marshall
The sequel to Alex Marshall's A Crown for Cold Silver, an outstanding, game-changing epic adventure featuring an unforgettable warrior. After five hundred years, the Sunken Kingdom has returned, and brought with it a monstrous secret that threatens to destroy every country on the Star. As an inhuman army gathers on its shores, poised to invade the Immaculate Isles, the members of the Cobalt Company face an ugly choice: abandon their dreams of glory and vengeance to combat a menace from another realm, or pursue their ambitions and hope the Star is still there when the smoke clears. Five villains. One legendary general. A battle for survival.
A Crown for Cold Silverby Alex Marshall
"It was all going so nicely, right up until the massacre."Twenty years ago, feared general Cobalt Zosia led her five villainous captains and mercenary army into battle, wrestling monsters and toppling an empire. When there were no more titles to win and no more worlds to conquer, she retired and gave up her legend to history. Now the peace she carved for herself has been shattered by the unprovoked slaughter of her village. Seeking bloody vengeance, Zosia heads for battle once more, but to find justice she must confront grudge-bearing enemies, once-loyal allies, and an unknown army that marches under a familiar banner.FIVE VILLAINS. ONE LEGENDARY GENERAL. A FINAL QUEST FOR VENGEANCE.
How Cities Work: Suburbs, Sprawl, and the Roads Not Takenby Alex Marshall
Do cities work anymore? How did they get to be such sprawling conglomerations of lookalike subdivisions, megafreeways, and "big box" superstores surrounded by acres of parking lots? And why, most of all, don't they feel like real communities? These are the questions that Alex Marshall tackles in this hard-hitting, highly readable look at what makes cities work. Marshall argues that urban life has broken down because of our basic ignorance of the real forces that shape cities-transportation systems, industry and business, and political decision making. He explores how these forces have built four very different urban environments-the decentralized sprawl of California's Silicon Valley, the crowded streets of New York City's Jackson Heights neighborhood, the controlled growth of Portland, Oregon, and the stage-set facades of Disney's planned community, Celebration, Florida. To build better cities, Marshall asserts, we must understand and intelligently direct the forces that shape them. Without prescribing any one solution, he defines the key issues facing all concerned citizens who are trying to control urban sprawl and build real communities. His timely book will be important reading for a wide public and professional audience.
The Surprising Design of Market Economiesby Alex Marshall
The "free market" has been a hot topic of debate for decades. Proponents tout it as a cure-all for just about everything that ails modern society, while opponents blame it for the very same ills. But the heated rhetoric obscures one very important, indeed fundamental, fact-markets don't just run themselves; we create them. Starting from this surprisingly simple, yet often ignored or misunderstood fact, Alex Marshall takes us on a fascinating tour of the fundamentals that shape markets and, through them, our daily economic lives. He debunks the myth of the "free market," showing how markets could not exist without governments to create the structures through which we assert ownership of property, real and intellectual, and conduct business of all kinds. Marshall also takes a wide-ranging look at many other structures that make markets possible, including physical infrastructure ranging from roads and railroads to water systems and power lines; mental and cultural structures such as common languages and bodies of knowledge; and the international structures that allow goods, services, cash, bytes, and bits to flow freely around the globe. Sure to stimulate a lively public conversation about the design of markets, this broadly accessible overview of how a market economy is constructed will help us create markets that are fairer, more prosperous, more creative, and more beautiful.

Skip to comments.Recall divides rural Wisconsin
Posted on 01/07/2012 3:06:57 PM PST by afraidfortherepublic
PLATTEVILLE At Eds Café, a table full of old-timers finished their coffee and ribbed a fellow member of their lunch bunch about fixing his truck.
It was all good-natured fun at this Platteville truck stop, popular among rural residents and people passing through on U.S. 151.
But when the talk turned to politics, as it tends to do at Eds, the group of men grew stone serious.
They had plenty to say about what they see as the terrible state of affairs in Wisconsins divided political climate, just nothing they wanted to share with Wisconsin Reporter at least for attribution in a story.
Like many rural Wisconsin residents, these men said they are not happy about the barrage of recall campaigns that have hit the state for the better part of the past year, including the latest effort to oust Gov. Scott Walker and Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch.
Ben Cargill, 27, a cook at Eds, wasnt shy about expressing his disdain.
If you ask me, I think its a waste of time and money, he said, adding that recall supporters should have to pay the bill for the cost of recall elections.
Unlike many of his Platteville neighbors, Cargill said he thinks Walker is doing a fine job, balancing a state budget once bogged down by a $3.6 billion shortfall.
Cargill said his father, a retired baker at University of Wisconsin-Platteville, has an entirely different view of a governor who led the effort to reform collective bargaining for most public employees. Walkers budget repair bill also requires public workers to contribute more to the cost of their health insurance and pensions.
Along the rolling hills of U.S. 151, from just north of Dubuque, Iowa, through Iowa County, signs speak for or against Walker, even though the recall story doesnt often seem to be told in Wisconsins rural reaches.
While the images of protests and petition signing from Madison, Milwaukee and the urban parts of the Badger State often make headlines, small-town Wisconsin could have a big say in the states political direction.
Grant County, home to Platteville, the largest city in far southwest Wisconsin, helped Republican Walker beat Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, a Democrat, in the 2010 governors election. Walker received 52 percent of the votes in Grant County, mirroring his statewide election numbers.
More than 52 percent of voters in nearby Lafayette County supported Walker.
But heading north along U.S. 151, in Iowa County, neighbor to Dane County and the Madison metropolitan area, support for candidate Walker fell off to 44 percent of the vote.
Little town split
Mineral Point is a dividing line.
This historic little Wisconsin city founded on mining and defined, in large part, by its artisan community is like a lot of Badger State communities split over the recall question.
Chuck Bennett, a Mineral Point resident whos proud to be 50, asserts the math works out closer to 65 percent to 35 percent, with Walker on the short end. His front yard sports a bold red Recall Walker sign, and a few other signs are in his neighborhood.
Bennett asserts Mineral Point is divided because of Walker.
My biggest issues are, along with a lot of people I know, is what he didnt reveal in his campaign and what he came out and did, Bennett said, noting Act 10, the bill dismantling collective bargaining that Walker rolled out in February. Its just another way of lying.
That sentiment is common among Walkers opponents, repeatedly espoused by the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, leading the recall campaign.
Bill Spevacek, 77, a member of the Democratic Party of Iowa County, said he and his wife have signed the petitions and support Walkers recall for the same reasons.
The closest word I can come to it is criminal, Spevacek said. He didnt tell us anything about knocking off state employee unions.
The cancer survivor said he joined his son and 12-year-old grandson at the Capitol in February, among tens of thousands of people protesting Act 10. Spevacek joked that his part in the demonstrations at least qualifies him as Time Magazines Person of the Year, which heralded 2011 as the year of the protester.
Walker, in my estimate, has been a total failure, and the quicker we get him out of office the better well be, he said.
In an interview late last month with Wisconsin Reporter, Walker said the charge that he had Act 10 in the bag is patently false. He said this charge mainly comes from big union bosses who cant get their hands on union dues anymore.
Did I plan the bill? No. But I laid out the parameters, he said.
The irony of all ironies with whats transpired, particularly of late these last few months, is most people in Wisconsin and across America get upset with politicians who break their promises, Walker added. Ive actually fulfilled my promises, and Ive got people who dont like that. Thats fine. Theyre right to do that, but it does kind of run contrary to where most people get their outrage. Its usually because someone did something they said they wouldnt do.
Jim and Patricia Johnson advertise their political convictions in their front yard
The Johnsons are fans of the governor, a fact betrayed by the blue Walker We Support You sign on the lawn of their home along Mineral Points U.S. 151.
Jim Johnson, a 79-year-old former executive with Wisconsin Power & Light Co., a subsidiary of Alliant Energy Corp., said Walker has done some positive things in his year in office.
Johnsons brother, Ken Johnson, 79, also of Mineral Point, has debated politics with his big brother for years. Ken, a strong union man who worked as a machinist for 29 years, said he would never vote for Walker.
I feel state workers should pay more for their retirement and for their health care, they should pay their fair share, he said. But I dont think in any way (Walker) had the right to step in with collective bargaining. Let the people bargain.
The brothers Johnson do agree on one political point: The governor should not be recalled.
I believe when you elect a man for his term, he should serve his term out, Ken said. If you dont like it, go back and vote against him the next time. All theyre doing is opening a can of worms with this recall.
And they both agree that civil discourse has too often broken down in Wisconsin politics.
Youre not going to get everything you want in life. You have to give and take, Jim said. I think the give-and-take process right now is in deep trouble with the Republican and Democratic parties.
« 2012 off with a bang in Wisconsin
Wisconsin Recall in Rural Areas Ping
If you want to be on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list, just FReep Mail me and it shall be done.
Somehow we've got to get the word out to these rural areas. Walker campigned on every one of thee changes -— in fact talked about them for 5 years before the election. Don't forget that he was running for the governorship back in 2006 before Green entered the race and Walker dropped out at the behest of the National GOP and Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner.
I talked to 2 teachers in a bar before Christmas. They told me about the land they had just purchased up in the UP of MI and their new home. They drove a Lexus. They were very angry that Walker wanted them to pay something for their Health Insurance.
The obnoxious lady in Appleton who asked me to sign the Recall Petition and could not understand my "no thank you" response - she drove off in a Saab convertible.
Having another beer after work, protesters against Walker came in to the bar and were ordering $9.00 pints of beer and talking about how they first tried this brand of beer during a trip to Europe.
I work about 60 hours a week. I have never been to Europe. I can't afford a Lexus or a Saab. Then again, I pay for my health insurance and my retirement plan.
I like Gov. Walker. I hope there are more people like me than the greedy public union folks I have met.

I drive a company service vehicle around the state, between one and two thousand miles per week. I have a "Reward Walker" bumper sticker on my van that my employer thankfully allows. I get far more positive feedback than negative, but that probably doesn't mean much.
I notice on my drive to work that a car sporting an Obama sticker is usually a foreign made car...go figure.
La Crosse, WI, recall people. There was another group close by with about the same amount of people. In all, there were about 25 people at the height of the screaming and drumming in La Crosse today.
Our fabulous Lt. Gov. spoke at our campaign office gathering and she was on fire.
Where'd you get the bumper, gorush?
Rebecca is the best! I've met her and heard her speak many times. We are lucky to have her in our corner. She may be petite but she is dynamite and a huge defender of the Constitution and Scott Walker.
My BIL's friend had a bunch of them made. I haven't seen any others, however, probably out of fear of vandalism...that's the beauty of a company vehicle. :{)
Absolutely! She's a wonderful lady and quite unafraid.
Those recall people sure look lonely. Can't Mickey Mouse and Elvis come by and pitch in?

The peasants in Wi will be brought to heel by their social betters.
The liberal machine has had free reign for at least 3 decades in that state. It's not going to go down without a vicious fight - a fight they are currently winning (thanks for not caring.)
Sounds like most of the school employee parking lots here in MN.
Wellstone ,Franken and/or Obama stickers still on them and 100K miles less and 10 years newer than my car.
But they're always bitching. Then they disappear for the summer to their 2nd home they call a cabin.
So the recallers here in Wisconsin think it's better to force workers to be union members even if they don't want to, allow collective bargaining to be a very expensive and restrictive offering for municipalities and school districts, protect teachers even though they are not doing their jobs and are not providing a good education to our students, allow the unions to run the Democratic Party and thus the state, lay-off teachers and other union members to fight budgets while giving union workers free perks or very inexpesive perks as they must be so special in comparison to the non-union taxpaying worker, increase taxes on business, industry and those evil corporations which of course is passed on to the consumer, raid funds unlawfully as Democrat Gov. Doyle did as a budget trick to make things look better than they were (Gov. Walker had to clean up that mess), increase state taxes by $1 billion in the middle of the night after only 24 hours of discussion and allowing NO public input, and on and on and on. Get a life people!
Was anyone signing?
I swear that they've given up in Ozaukee County. I don't see anyone out soliciting signatures, and I know of nly ONE yard sign out in favor of the recal, There were 2, but one of them has been flat in the ditch for 2 weeks with nobody making an attempt to put it back up.
I think you should expand this into an article and get it published. Great work.
I think you should expand this into an article and get it published. Great work.
I agree with The Shrew. This would make a terrific Letter to the Editor of your local paper!
The Wisconsin Governmental Free Scheisse Army (GFSA) is MAD! They're really MAD!!!
I don't speak 'DRUM'
Get some folks together and set up a stand of your own, far enough up the road so they don't see you. Collect your own recall signatures. Most people (I hope) won't stop to sign again when they reach the real recall supporters.
If you do encounter one of the other groups, offer to turn in their signatures for them. Mighty neighborly of you.
Before Walker took office, the Dem governor, Jim Doyle, was continuing the long Dem Party tradition of spending the state into a deep hole. The privileged state public union workers didn't have to contribute anything to their health and retirement. When Walker took office one year ago and started cutting into the three billion plus deficit, the Dems howled from here to Mars. Now, one year later, the deficit is no more, and we are now running a three hundred million surplus. As usual, the Dems claim we'll have people dying by the hundreds of thousands (I exaggerate slightly) because of Walker's cuts. Baloney.
I agree with all you say. All I can think is that the Dems and unionistas (essentially one and the same) think that were all stupid. If they didnt know Walkers plan before the election, they werent paying attention.
teachers in this country are the biggest pigs and waste of resources going.
The pic of the petition folks looks like the groups I saw here in NW WI for a few weeks. 3-5 people with signs, but no one ever seemed to be signing anything; it was just the campaigners standing there talking among themselves. Haven't seen even that sort of group since early Dec. or so. I almost think it's just a facade to make people believe the signatures they submit are real.
There are maybe three or four recall signs around here. I just noticed a marquee-type sign outside a local appliance store and propane dealership that said "God bless Scott Walker for lowering my taxes". I need to order propane on Monday. I may just call them instead of my usual dealer (although I doubt they're pro-recall either).
I don't know. I was inside the GOP headquarters, listening to Rebecca. The protesters were across the street from the HQ.
Didn't y'all also put an end to union dues being collected by employers out of staff paychecks? That's what's really killing the rats.
I learned all this after stepping outside to take a picture of the guy's truck, which had a recall sign on it. I kid you not, this is how the conversation went with this guy.
These people are lying, he was clear about what he was going to do.
LOL! That could be considered fraud.
Yes! Now, dues have to be collected by the unionistas and the members don't have to give them permission. The scary thing is that the unionistas need to get the people's bank info in order to set up the auto-deduction. Can you imagine giving some guy you barely know your bank account info so he can deduct money out of there on a regular basis?
I am an introvert and I try to be sociable to people because I know it's the right thing to do. This is the thanks I get. LOL!
Couldn't happen to a nastier bunch of miscreants.
God, I'm glad I live in a right-to-work state.
The apparatchiks are entrenched, have got their early retirement, yearly raises, full ride bennies and perks, and have no intention of giving them up.
They have the CPUSA and their allies the Democrat party behind them, weak opposition from the right, and appear to be unstoppable.
If they succeed in Wisconsin it will be the fault of the National GOP and the RNC.
If you are with the government whether it be state local or federal you are on easy street.
The rest of us are suckers who had better shut up, pay for some useless bureaucrats early retirement and salary on top, and like it.
That son of a bitch Warren in US Vs. Brown threw out the provision in Taft Hartley that required union leadership to sign affidavits that they were not communists.
As a result, union leadership is comprised of nothing but.
We are getting ready to hit the CPUSA and the communist American labor movement so hard that they wont have time to crawl back under the rocks they came out from.
No worker in the US should be held hostage to unions period, compulsory union dues are unconstitutional under the first and 14th amendments, and the unions need to be stripped of their ability to steal money from workers paychecks on a national level.
If the workers love unions so much they will be happy to voluntarily send them dues.
Criminalize Government employee unions, blatantly illegal mechanisms for raping taxpayers by bribing leftist politicians with money and votes in exchange for unsustainable compensation and benefits.
Theres nothing patently illegal about a POTUS issuing an executive order immediately ending withholding of union dues nationwide, and ordering the National Labor Relations Board to get a Federal Court Order enforcing the Presidents decision
Lets fight it out in the courts, and lets make it a campaign issue, with the promise to end compulsory withholding of union dues one of the first acts of the new GOP Administration.
Its stupid to allow the left (Communists) to use the same mechanism the IRS uses to fund themselves.
U.S. Supreme Court UNITED STATES v. BROWN, 381 U.S. 437 (1965) 381 U.S. 437
UNITED STATES v. BROWN. CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT. No. 399.
Argued March 29, 1965.
Decided June 7, 1965.
Respondent was convicted under 504 of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, which makes it a crime for one who belongs to the Communist Party or who has been a member thereof during the preceding five years wilfully to serve as a member of the executive board of a labor organization. The Court of Appeals reversed, holding 504 violative of the First and Fifth Amendments. Held: Section 504 constitutes a bill of attainder and is therefore unconstitutional. Pp. 441-462.
(a) The Bill of Attainder Clause, Art. I, 9, cl. 3, was intended to implement the separation of powers among the three branches of the Government by guarding against the legislative exercise of judicial power. Pp. 441-446.
(b) The Bill of Attainder Clause is to be liberally construed in the light of its purpose to prevent legislative punishment of designated persons or groups. Cummings v. Missouri, 4 Wall. 277; Ex parte Garland, 4 Wall. 333; United States v. Lovett, 328 U.S. 303 . Pp. 447-449.
(c) In designating Communist Party members as those persons who cannot hold union office, Congress has exceeded its Commerce Clause power to enact generally applicable legislation disqualifying from positions affecting interstate commerce persons who may use such positions to cause political strikes. Pp. 449-452.
(d) Section 504 is distinguishable from such conflict-of-interest statutes as 32 of the Banking Act, where Congress was legislating with respect to general characteristics rather than with respect to the members of a specific group. Pp. 453-455.
(e) The designation of Communist Party membership cannot be justified as an alternative, shorthand expression for the characteristics which render men likely to incite political strikes. Pp. 455-456.
(f) A statute which inflicts its deprivation upon named or described persons or groups constitutes a bill of attainder whether its aim is retributive, punishing past acts, or preventive, discouraging future conduct. In American Communications Assn. v. Douds, 339 U.S. 382 , where the Court upheld 9 (h) of the National [381 U.S. 437, 438] Labor Relations Act, the predecessor of 504, the Court erroneously assumed that only a law visiting retribution for past acts could constitute a bill of attainder, and misread the statute involved in United States v. Lovett, 328 U.S. 303 , which it sought to distinguish from 9 (h), as being in that category. Pp. 456-460.
(g) The legislative specification of those to whom the enacted sanction is to apply invalidates a provision as a bill of attainder whether the individuals are designated by name as in Lovett or by description as here. Pp. 461-462.
334 F.2d 488, affirmed.
Solicitor General Cox argued the cause for the United States. With him on the brief were Assistant Attorney General Yeagley, Nathan Lewin, Kevin T. Maroney and George B. Searls.
Richard Gladstein argued the cause for respondent. With him on the brief was Norman Leonard.
Briefs of amici curiae, urging affirmance, were filed by Melvin L. Wulf for the American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California et al., and by Victor Rabinowitz and Leonard B. Boudin for the Emergency Civil Liberties Committee.
MR. CHIEF JUSTICE WARREN delivered the opinion of the Court.
In this case we review for the first time a conviction under 504 of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, which makes it a crime for a member of the Communist Party to serve as an officer or (except in clerical or custodial positions) as an employee of a labor union. 1 Section 504, the purpose of which is to protect [381 U.S. 437, 439] the national economy by minimizing the danger of political strikes, 2 was enacted to replace 9 (h) of the National Labor Relations Act, as amended by the Taft-Hartley Act, which conditioned a unions access to the National Labor Relations Board upon the filing of affidavits by all of the unions officers attesting that they were not members of or affiliated with the Communist Party. 3 [381 U.S. 437, 440]
Respondent has been a working longshoreman on the San Francisco docks, and an open and avowed Communist, for more than a quarter of a century. He was elected to the Executive Board of Local 10 of the International Longshoremens and Warehousemens Union for consecutive one-year terms in 1959, 1960, and 1961. On May 24, 1961, respondent was charged in a one-count indictment returned in the Northern District of California with knowingly and wilfully serv[ing] as a member of an executive board of a labor organization . . . while a member of the Communist Party, in wilful violation of Title 29, United States Code, Section 504. It was neither charged nor proven that respondent at any time advocated or suggested illegal activity by the union, or proposed a political strike. 4 The jury found respondent guilty, and he was sentenced to six months imprisonment. The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, sitting en banc, reversed and remanded with instructions to set aside the conviction and dismiss the indictment, holding that 504 violates the First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. 334 F.2d 488. We granted certiorari, 379 U.S. 899 .
Respondent urges - in addition to the grounds relied on by the court below - that the statute under which he was convicted is a bill of attainder, and therefore violates Art. I, 9, of the Constitution. 5 We agree that 504 is void as a bill of attainder and affirm the decision of the Court of Appeals on that basis. We therefore find it unnecessary to consider the First and Fifth Amendment arguments. [381 U.S. 437, 441]
Bipolar people are interesting because they can give you their life story in three minutes (unlike say Gump, who took 140 minutes and a bunch of flashbacks to get it done), and they seem genuinely appreciative if you listen to it. And then I usually get the hell away.
That's about how it went but it took him 20 minutes. However, he was very nice and he hugged me twice.
I talked to 2 teachers in a bar before Christmas. They told me about the land they had just purchased up in the UP of MI and their new home. They drove a Lexus. They were very angry that Walker wanted them to pay something for their Health Insurance.

I like Gov. Walker. I hope there are more people like me than the greedy public union folks I have met.
From the keyboards of Freerepublic come great truths . . .
"I talked to 2 teachers in a bar before Christmas. They told me about the land they had just purchased up in the UP of MI and their new home. They drove a Lexus. They were very angry that Walker wanted them to pay something for their Health Insurance."
I have always supported teachers and used to buy into the liberal mantra about teachers being underpaid. Now the story is different, and it will be a cold day in hell before I ever listen to a teacher's complaint again. I'm sorry for the 'good' teachers, but liberals always paint their opponents with a broad brush, and turn about is fair play. At this point, I lump every and all public school teachers into the same category of worthless overpaid public union parasites. Surely there are plenty of teachers who don't deserve to be characterized as such. To them I say, when you open your mouths and fight the parasites in your own unions you will have earned being treated fairly.
The people you are fighting think their world constitutes what is "normal." They are so divorced from the reality of your world it is as if you didn't exist.
Holy cow! He managed all that on one breath? You have my sympathy. No wonder their recall signatures are so funky. They must be signing up all the people who live in their heads.
BTW, your Lt. Governor is kinda hot.
The Regressives were running their recall campaign even before the vote was tallied! Screw em!
Yes, our Lt. Gov. is hot, funny and smart!

Growing pains: Chamber to move into new building
After 19 years of leasing space in the Post Office, the Gothenburg Community Development office will move on.
Less than a block away, to be exact.
The office serves the Gothenburg Chamber of Commerce and the Gothenburg Improvement Company.
Once space is remodeled inside a building now owned by Chris Healey, on the northeast corner of Lake Avenue and 10th Street, the Chamber will relocate in mid to late summer, according to director Anne Anderson.
Increased visibility for the Chamber office, more space for supplies and storage and larger surroundings are the biggest reasons for the move, Anderson said.
"It will double the space we have now," she said, "and also offer more visibility for travelers looking for information."
Anderson said the Chamber will only rent part of the building which, once renovated, will include two offices, a reception area, work room and storage. All renters in the building will have access to a conference room and kitchen.
"The ability to have on-site storage is a plus, as well as the additional space," she said. "We have items stored in several different places that are used for banquets, festivals and events, fundraisers and recruitment as well as important documents for the Chamber and GIC."
Another benefit is more room to have a larger visitors center to display information about businesses, community and the surrounding area.
Masseuse Joy Fritton now rents office space in the back of the building. There will be room for additional offices elsewhere in the spacious building.
Anderson was hired as the executive director of the Community Development Office in 2001, but worked in part-time positions for the Chamber and the Gothenburg Main Street Program, beginning in 1996.
Since then, the Chamber has added duties such as leasing the Pony Express Station, and various activities like Magic on Main Street, a beef-and-wine tasting event and more retail functions.
"More activities take more time and more space," Anderson said.
Anderson said she thinks the Chamber can serve members better by having additional space to offer them more.
"We can have more activities within the office," she said. "And I hope we can bring members, and prospective members, into the office to talk about the benefits of membership and outreach."
Chamber president Jim Widdifield said the move will help make the office more of a visitor center than what it is now.
Space to help GIC recruitment will also be a benefit, Anderson noted.
"I think it will also give us a more professional image because we're a progressive community," she said.
Not only will the relocation make the Chamber more visible to travelers but also to Chamber members and the community, she said.
Anderson said the move will also put the Chamber office in the downtown district and closer to events and activities, instead of on the edge like it is now.

Keep crushes to your diaries, girls, it's not fair on teachers
Published 12/09/2013 | 05:00
Schoolgirl crushes on teachers are generally innocent, dreamy events to be discussed with your best friend or indeed your secret diary. But occasionally, they can spiral out of control and turn into dangerous liaisons.
We all know schoolgirl crushes are common. When you have 600 girls stuck in school all day with nothing to distract them, you can be sure a young male teacher will make waves. Big waves.
But I was still taken aback when I Googled 'crush on a teacher' and over 46 million results popped up. There is even a whole Wikihow page on how to make your teacher have a crush on you.
The page advises schoolgirls to compliment their teacher and always remember to keep up their personal hygiene. Apparently teachers don't go for girls with body odour, bad breath, dirty nails or grubby hair.
This seems like slightly alarming and unnecessary advice for young girls. And while most crushes are innocent enough, some can take a more sinister turn. Let's not forget maths teacher Jeremy Forrest who ran away last year to France with his 15-year-old student.
She claims that it was she who pursued him initially. Forrest (31), who was married at the time of his affair with the schoolgirl, was recently jailed for five-and-a-half years after being convicted of abduction and admitting a further five counts of sexual activity with a child.
Many male teachers in girls' school are now afraid of being accused of wrongdoing and leave their classroom doors open. My own five-year-old daughter has a male teacher who said he cannot hug the children if they are upset as it's just not deemed appropriate anymore.
It's sad to think that we have got to the stage where a male teacher feels too afraid to give a crying five-year-old a cuddle. And yet in this paranoid and litigious world he is right to protect himself.
I've no doubt that many teachers are completely unaware of the crushes formed in their classrooms. You have to wonder how Pippa Middleton's hockey teacher Richard Markham felt when he woke up to find his face plastered all over the media because of his famous former pupil's crush.
When Pippa recently disclosed in an article that she used to fancy the 'undeniably fanciable' Markham, she exposed the poor man to a media storm.
I'm sure Markham, like all upstanding teachers, would have much preferred Pippa to keep her schoolgirl crush to herself and not blab it to the world media.
The poor man is now being subjected to all kinds of unnecessary and unwanted scrutiny. Markham has literally been hauled from his cosy obscurity to be revealed as the object of lust and longing for a young Pippa. To make matters worse, Markham has just started a new position as headmaster of a private school in Hertfordshire.
All new heads of schools hope to make their mark in the first few weeks. They aim to impress and influence students and parents alike with their gravitas and experience. Poor Markham, however, will face titters and sniggers as he starts his new job.
Shouldn't schoolgirl crushes stay in the schoolyard, during schooldays and not be splashed all over the newspapers decades later?
Perhaps I'm being unfair. Having gone to an all-girls convent school where no male teachers were allowed on, or indeed near, the premises there was no one to have a crush on.
Maybe if I'd been taught hockey by a fit young male teacher, I, along with all of my classmates, would have formed a crush on him.
But the issue is not the crush. The issue is that Pippa, herself a victim of some fairly vicious and negative press, would so foolishly and naively land her old teacher in this glare of unwanted attention.
Like Markham, most teachers just want to teach and go home. Crushes make them feel uncomfortable and can be difficult to manage. Teenage girls need to keep their crushes to themselves and if they feel the need to write about it, they should do so in their private diary.
And finally girls, personal hygiene should not just be for the benefit of your teacher, your fellow classmates and your family will appreciate it too.

One of my favorite finds is this great (and affordable) crib bedding from Garnet Hill. I'm eyeing that green and white polka dot.

Blockley Parish lies on upland farm and woodland close to the northern extremity of Cotswold District. It forms part of the boundary between the headwaters of the Rivers Thames and Severn. Significant clay deposits lie between the attractive limestone hills; springs form the main source of the several steeply-falling streams which flow through Blockley, Aston Magna and Draycott villages. By contrast, Paxford village, also within the Parish, lies on more open, level ground drained by the Knee Brook, a tributary of the River Stour.
The human and visual characteristics of Blockley Parish are strongly influenced both by its relatively isolated location in the rural North Cotswolds and by the industrial history of Blockley village, its main centre of population. With a population of about 2000 (in the 2001 census) it is one of the largest parishes in England in terms of area, at about 12 sq miles (30 sq km). The entire Parish lies within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Please note that the date of the next Parish Council Meeting has been changed form Thursday 16th June to Tuesday 14th June.
The meeting will be held at 7:00pm in the Jubilee Hall, Blockley.
Blockley Parish Council have been informed of a planning application reference number 16/01925/OUT at Land Off Park Road, Blockley for outline planning consent, known locally as 'Colonels Piece'.
The application is available to view and comments can be made by 16 JUNE 2016 at http://www.cotswold.gov.uk/planningregister/ or alternatively can be inspected at Customer Services, Trinity Road, Cirencester, Glos GL7 1PX. Comments can be made online or sent to the address below:

At least it has decent brightness compared to the LCD's at skool, and that old CRT i used to have hahaha.
That said:
I can't believe people still use CRT monitors. It only makes designing things like themes, and web layouts that much harder to get right for "all" monitors. Anything medium in brightness looks horribly dark on a CRT.
New Year's resolutions are rarely followed through. if you can't motivate yourself to do these things at any given time of the year, forget about it.
what? you guys have THOSE kinds of resolutions? I still have 1024x768 and a 17' CRT, maybe I should get with the times

Researchers identify Busy Lifestyle Syndrome as new condition that makes you forgetful
- From: bodyandsoul
- December 28, 2012
IS technology and the media to blame for our fading memories?
Can't remember your PIN number? Or the name of that film you love? Or why you just walked into the kitchen? We've all had those moments of forgetfulness, and, quite naturally, worry about what's happening to our memory.
As our lives get more complicated and hurried, recollecting all the things we need to know seems to get ever tougher.
Now Scottish researchers have invented a new malaise to describe this type of memory loss - Busy Lifestyle Syndrome (BLS).
According to doctors at CPS Research, a Glasgow-based clinical trials company, the syndrome is caused by hectic lives bombarded with information overload from mobile phones, BlackBerrys, TV, radio and the internet.
"We believe there are widespread signs of the problem," says spokeswoman Angela Scott-Henderson. "Our attention spans and concentration levels are going down. It's getting to be more common, affecting people at younger ages."
As a result of the clinical trials, drug companies are creating a lucrative new business in "memory pills".
They clearly believe there is a market for people worried about their brains.
But should we be taking powerful new drugs to boost our memory? And is there even such a problem in the first place?
The fact is, forgetting things is normal. Scientific studies show perfectly healthy people can suffer up to 30 mental lapses of the 'Why did I come upstairs?' kind every week.
Finnish psychologist Dr Maria Jonsdottir discovered this by asking 189 healthy volunteers aged between 19 and 60 to record their lapses for a week, and concluded that such episodes "do not mean something is wrong with that person's brain".
In an increasingly frenetic world of mobiles, emails and multi-channel TV, the more things we do and see, the more likely we are to forget things.
So what's normal forgetfulness and what isn't?
With the help of experts, we identify when memory problems are normal, and when they could be a sign to seek medical help.
- Forgetting what you went upstairs for.
- Taking several minutes to recall where the car is parked.
- Forgetting to call a friend back while working from home with misbehaving children.
- Putting things down and being unable to find them soon after.
- Forgetting something trivial a friend mentioned the day before.
- Forgetting the name of someone you've just met.
- Briefly forgetting the word for something - the 'thingamabob' moment.
Why this might be happening?
"Our immediate short-term memory is very easily distractible," says Dr Oliver Cockerell, a consultant neurologist at The London Clinic.
"Your brain knows you're unlikely to need to remember a menial task such as going upstairs to get a book in a few hours, so it erases the memory to make room for more important stuff.
"That's why we all sometimes can't remember why we walked into a room."
So why do we forget trivial information? Dr Marie Janson, director of development at Alzheimer's Research UK, explains: "The brain has to decide whether new information is worth remembering - if so, it'll put it in your long-term memory; if not, it's deleted."
Stress, grief and lack of sleep can also affect memory, as can trying to do too many things at once.
- Multi-tasking becomes difficult - a good cook suddenly finds preparing a Sunday roast overwhelming.
- Problems negotiating familiar places, such as you regularly can't find your vehicle in the car park.
- Forgetting the names of close relatives and friends.
- Problems recognising faces, colours, shapes and words.
- Repeating the same question asked half an hour previously.
- Changing personality, such as a social butterfly who turns reclusive.
- Finding that you've left objects in the wrong place, such as keys left in the lock, and not remembering leaving them there.
Why this might be happening
Many of these symptoms could actually be a sign of depression, stress or a lack of concentration.
However, they may be early warning signs of dementia or Alzheimer's.
"There is a type of Alzheimer's where memory is unaffected, but the part of the brain responsible for visual processing is damaged," adds Dr Anne Corbett of the Alzheimer's Society.
"The patients I see with dementia are those brought in by their worried families who can see something is wrong,"adds neurologist Dr Cockerell.
"Huge numbers come in because they can't remember people's names.
"The bottom line is, if you're aware of your memory problems, you're unlikely to have dementia."
- Asking for a cup of tea, not realising you've just had one.
- Forgetting a grandchild's name, but childhood memories are vivid.
- No idea how to perform everyday tasks, such as washing.
- Finding family structure confusing, such as not being clear which grandchild belongs to whom.
- Impaired judgement, e.g. wearing a thick overcoat in summer.
- Being unable to tell what the purpose of an everyday object is.
- Not recognising friends and family.
- Leaving belongings in strange places, e.g. a kettle under the bed or a wallet in the fridge.
- Feeling disorientated about time and place - frequently visited places are unfamiliar.
Alzheimer's affects the hippocampus, the part of the brain responsible for short-term memory. Long-term memory is usually unaffected.
"People with Alzheimer's can't convert short-term memories into long-term ones, so these die," says Dr Corbett.

"Pretty much right when I got back [from Oregon], I looked at Stanford's spring practice dates and I noticed it was the last week of practices," Murphy said. "I wanted to check it out one more time and see how the whole team progressed throughout the beginning of spring practice and how they adjusted to the new coaches."
As the lone Cardinal recruit on campus, Murphy had ample opportunity to get acclimated with Stanford on a deeper level.
"It was only me up there, so I think it was a little more intimate," Murphy said. "I got to hang out with the coaches a lot. I got to hang out with the offensive line coaches, I talked to Coach Shaw for quite a bit, Coach Polian. I also got to sit in one of the classes. I got to sit in a couple of offensive line meetings. I got to see the campus a little more. I got a firsthand look of watching the team workout in the weight room, got to stay with one of the players overnight [Jonathan Martin]. I got a pretty good feel or the whole program and how they do things."
Naturally, Murphy had plenty of opportunity to observe and interact with Stanford's two offensive line coaches, Mike Bloomgren and Ron Crook.
Although Crook was still at Harvard when Murphy previously visited Stanford, the four-star offensive lineman – and his family - know Crook well.
"Me and my family actually have a pretty good relationship with Coach Crook because my brother [plays football at] Harvard," Murphy said. "We knew him because he recruited my brother and we knew him from being the offensive line coach. We knew him pretty well, but it was nice getting to see him again and catching up."
Murphy's meeting with head coach David Shaw focused more on life outside of football.
"Coach Shaw's a really cool guy to talk to, he's real approachable," Murphy said. "We were just talking about his family life a little bit and football-wise why he likes college football and what he likes about Stanford and what he thinks sticks out comparing to a normal college and why I'd be a good fit there and stuff."
Of course a large component to feeling a "good fit" to a program is a good bond with the players. Murphy feels Stanford satisfies that criterion well.
"I like them a lot," Murphy said. "I think I can relate to them pretty well because they're all pretty good students and they're all just normal kids loving football and just having fun.
"I got to pretty much live a day in like a life of a Stanford football player, so it was pretty nice, seeing what they do every day and seeing if I could fit into that and enjoy that for four or five years."
Murphy's comfort could be Stanford's gain, and in a big way. One of the truly elite recruits Stanford is after this cycle, Murphy is currently ranked No. 34 in the nation by Scout.com (and No. 9 in the country by 247sports.com, another prominent recruiting service). Not since 2004, when Alex Fletcher gained five-star designation, has Stanford inked such a touted prospect as Murphy. (Class of 2002 signees Trent Edwards and Julian Jenkins also rank among the most highly ranked players Stanford has signed. Conversely, Andrew Luck and Shayne Skov were were also five-star prospects, but were ranked 47 and 40, respectively, in the country.)
Of course, there will be hefty competition. Murphy has offers from the entire Pac-12, in addition to Florida, Auburn, and Notre Dame. Nonetheless, Murphy currently lists the Cardinal among his top-three choices, although he notes that could change.
"The schools that I've visited so far like USC, Stanford, Oregon, they're all (standing) out to me because of what they have to offer," Murphy said. "That doesn't really say that some other school doesn't have something equal, or even better, than what they have to offer, I just haven't seen it up close yet and haven't been exposed to it.
"Those three sticking out are probably Stanford, USC and Oregon, so far."
Proof of Murphy's regard for the Cardinal lies in his plan to begin Stanford's rigorous admissions process.
"I've talked to one of the coaches who's the big academic/admissions guy and he pretty much told me all I need to do in the classroom, classes for next year for admittance in the school," Murphy said. "He makes it sound like I should be able to be admitted by summer if all goes to plan, so that should be pretty cool.
"I think I'll probably start filling [an application] out pretty soon. There's a few essays on it and a few other steps. I'll probably want to get it pretty soon and start filling it out."
After a relatively hectic travel schedule throughout the late winter and early spring, Murphy now plans to slow down the recruiting process and focus on his top few schools.
"I don't have any more unofficials planned right now," Murphy said. "I might get up to like a USC scrimmage or something just because they're so local. Big trips, I think I've made plenty of those so far. I'm still looking at all these schools, maybe by summer narrow it down to a handful. I'm going to go to a few camps of the schools I'm interested in, kind of get a feel for them and try to get a feel for the coaching staff and maybe go on a few officials next year to check out a place for real and hopefully make my decision then."

Did you know that Utah is home to a thriving population of wild turkeys? Jason Robinson, upland game coordinator for the Division of Wildlife Resources, says more than 25,000 turkeys live in Utah. "It's tough to get a solid estimate," he says, "but based on the number of male turkeys hunters took this past spring, we estimate the state's population at more than 25,000 birds."

A new black bear strategy, started in Utah in 2015, did exactly what wildlife managers hoped it would: it led to government agencies taking fewer bears and hunters taking more. In 2014, hunters and government agencies took a total of 378 bears in Utah. In 2015 — despite putting more hunters in the field — the number taken declined to 370.
