Hello All!
I am a system administrator of some CentOS 5.6 system where we want to replace imagick with gmagick. I installed the freshest package GraphicsMagick.x86_64 (Version 1.3.14) from repositories and the freshest GraphicsMagick-devel.x86_64 and GraphicsMagick-perl.x86_64 which are installed with GraphicsMagick.x86_64 by yum automatically. I installed gmagick 1.1.0RC3 beta by pecl. A developer replaced imagick with gmagick in the configuration of the test application. After that, we got the following error:
Exception information:
Message: alpha transparency not implemented
The developer says that alpha transparency is implemented in gmagick and we need just to tune it to make it work. Can we really tune it to make alpha transparency work or we need to do anything else?
Thank you if you answer.

I just meant that the delivery was so bad and monotone that the audience couldn't tell if it was supposed to be serious or sarcastic. Very, very sad.
|Dec 13 2009, 09:43 PM Post #342
But it provoked SUCH a conversation and debate! :D
|Dec 13 2009, 09:53 PM Post #343
Okay, I'm back to a "no" on the sarcasm, thanks to that video. Thanks, IMA. Now, it's entirely possible that the line was supposed to be sarcastic, but it didn't come through in the delivery.
On the quoted section, huh? I know you're being sarcastic calling Rafe mean (so I'm not incapable of detecting it lol), but the discussion of whether or not Rafe was serious about driving isn't a bash on him. It's exactly the same as us wondering whether EJ really thought commercial was better, or if there's more to it. B-)
I think Nicole has shown that she's not a match for EJ. While ejole could've been a dark partnership, that's not what it was. It was Nicole cowering when she got on EJ's bad side, and putting on a saccharine facade for him that he bought even when it didn't make sense. Even before the miscarriage, Nicole was stepping back and letting go of her true scheming, nasty, nature to create a happy little picture for EJ.

Much prefers sweevil, snarky EJ over Father Figure Fucktard Eejiot.
I honestly do see why many thought EJ and Nicole had great potential. But for me, they were ruined from the start because of how they started. Nicole entered in to the relationship knowing full well that EJ was head over heels in love with Sami. He told her so repeatedly - so it's not as though she was just unaware. Yet they moved forward when EJ very clearly settled for her after finding out she was pregnant and extending one last opportunity to Sami at the cabin to give him any indication there was hope for a future for them. And then to have Nicole proceed with all the lies and deceit just compounded the issue. Even at the point that she miscarried I do think TPTB had the opportunity to make EJole the rooting couple - if she had been honest with him and he had stood by her regardless. Had those things happened I know in my heart I would have lost all hope for EJami. But since it didn't play out that way and EJ was basically lied to, manipulated and made to look like such a doofus it ruined any chance I might have found to root for EJole.
I love the character of EJ and it was awful, for me, to watch him be sacrificed so completely for this storyline. So as much as I think both Ari Z and James Scott are fantastic, sexy, talented, funny, etc - I just can't root for their characters to wind up together based on the history that already exists between them.
No doubt that is exactly how many feel about EJami - that their history hinders any opportunity for them to be a viable pair in the future - and I get that. But for me, the history be damned with EJami. I wanted them before the worst of it happened, and I wanted them more afterward. So clearly, we all want what we want for whatever reasons...and that's why TPTB have such an easy time of it stirring the fan base wars and making us all half crazy with frustration. :lol:

|I honestly think EJ wanted to fly commercial so it would give his henchmen and Anna more time to steal Sydney and get away before Nicole was found. What about it?
|Dec 13 2009, 10:55 PM Post #346
I loved EJole from the moment they got drunk together at the bar and mean old, buzzkill Sami had to stop it.
And like all Days couples, they were good and managed to become so fucked up that I hardly recognize them anymore.
But as history of EJ and Nicole, Nicole knew that EJ was hung up on Sami...even during the drunk bar scene, she was trying to get EJ to get Sami jealous...and she knew what she was talking about because that is a big reason why EJami kissed/slept together in the first place.
But after that, Nicole made it plenty clear that she did not want to be second choice to Samantha, stopped talking/flirting with EJ because she knew he was hung up on Sami, and he promised her that he and Sami were done. Even when she was pregnant, he broke up with Sami during that awesome phone call, said he was the happiest he had ever been, praised Nicole as the best mother (that seems to be his bullshit line though).
Nicole was adamant at first about not being EJ's second pick...and EJ promised her that she wasn't. And aside from the baby drama, he did marry her and make promises.
But that is neither here nor there for many people and their love for their couples. Like you said, history of EJole, and hell EJami be damned. I think that the best potential for a powercouple even now with all that has happened is EJ and Nicole. They are very similar in character and have some major angst...however, EJ needs to do some seriousl groveling before I ever want that asshat near Nicole again!
|Dec 13 2009, 11:04 PM Post #347
I disagree with your assessment of how the EJole relationship was developing, which I consider at a minimum incomplete, and it was certainly more complex than you describe. You're leaving out EJ's pursuit of her and Nicole's reluctance to get too deeply involved. I think the writing was actually initially very clear that EJ was moving away from Sami--as was Lucas; I seem to recall both of them essentially mocking Sami because I remember thinking it was about time they realized she wasn't worth pursuing. Had the show not decided to greenlight writing AS's pregnancy in, I think we would have gotten a very different EJole relationship. It's funny, though, that even writing in another EJami pregnancy really hasn't gotten EJami closer; Sami shut out EJ of the second pregnancy and the only voluntary one she had by him, picked out a new baby daddy and is currently as far as I can tell completely in love with that man.
I still don't see any love between EJ and Sami--not him for her and most certainly not her for him--but the way EJ's been acting Sami's welcome to him. They can scream and be obnoxious hypocrites together and I'll use my FF button liberally.
And I still think EJ being the kidnapper makes the most sense. I like the idea of Sami being behind it because it would prove she meant what she said that she would keep her child from EJ again if given the chance, but that Sami's been gone for years. Not only that, I don't think she'd have had that dream or whatever it was about Sydney.
ETA: Alligato, I guess we were sharing a brain again.

EJ and Nicole were ruined for the sake of plot. IMO, they are a much better fit, in theory, for this whole 'bad ass supercouple' thing I have in mind versus Ej and Sami. But even with Ejole, when they were together, it was the same as any other couple...the emotion, the drama etc. Both schemers, yet never an opportunity to scheme together...
It's really too bad, EJ and Nicole had a ton of potential.
|Dec 13 2009, 11:20 PM Post #349
People can say that they can never accept EJole because of what both have done to each other in less then a year, yet they CAN stand the torture that EJ put Sami and her family through for 3+ YEARS! That to me, will never make any "soap sense?" Whatever floats your boat, I guess???
ITA about Nicole pushing EJ away. This is why I liked her. She was attracted to EJ from the beginning, but wasn't willing to put up with Sami. She even said that she would raise their child by herself. But she fell hard for the fool, and got burned!
I still believe in their love and EJ wouldnt of been as hurt if he didnt FALL IN LOVE with her. Nicole, I think lost herself in him. Too obsessed in keeping the secret of Sydney. Now, with everything out (well at least Nicole's part...EJ, not so much) I think they can work their way back to that flirty and sexy couple that people of Salem love to hate!
Hey, maybe they can get back that love when they find out that Sydney's the EJole baby....cause this is DAYS, and there's bound to be a twist to get this SL to 2011! LOL
|Dec 13 2009, 11:41 PM Post #350
Much prefers sweevil, snarky EJ over Father Figure Fucktard Eejiot.
Which was exactly the point I made. That for all the many reasons I could never support EJole (as much as I love EJ and James and Ari, separately) I understand that others have nearly identical reasons for not liking EJami.
We can all go on until the cows come home about the chemistry between the actors, the potential between their characters, etc. But at the end of the day - we like who we like. I thought the drunk scene with EJole was cute - it showed a side of EJ we'd never seen. But I also hated much of the things about them that you guys no doubt loved.
I probably shouldn't have brought it up - it probably looks like I was picking a fan war fight and that wasn't my intention. Just simply saying I get why many people found things they liked about them - even though they weren't for me. Our own biases sometimes make it hard to see any potential in another pairing, but the quality of the actors gave EJole more impact and potential than I would have imagined in the beginning.
|Dec 14 2009, 12:26 AM Post #351
I wished the same LOL.
I remember when EJ first showed up and he had scenes with Carrie. I seemed to recall her saying she thought he looked familiar or she knew him from somewhere. I think that got people thinking he may be a son of Tony and Anna's. I would've loved that because EJ reminded me so much of 1982-1985 Tony early on.

|^ That was either a dropped story, or it was explained that EJ was "famous"...sort of.
|Dec 15 2009, 12:56 AM Post #353
I just watched the video of EJ and NIcole getting drunk at Chez Rouge. I wasn't watching Days at that time, and I've read the comments about what a great scene that was! The chemistry/acting was unbelievable!!!! So hot and sexy! I'm still lost for the story around that time up until recently. It's a shame JS has put on weight/bulk whatever you wanna call it, it has aged him and removed a percent of insane handsomeness.
That being said for my first post, I want to compliment this site, along with fellow members, the great posts, insights and comments are all very fun! Much funner than sleeping which is what I should be doing actually.

Much prefers sweevil, snarky EJ over Father Figure Fucktard Eejiot.
Welcome to the site! :wave:
I just wanted to chime in to say that I agree with your comments about how the added bulk seems to have aged JS. Particularly in his face - in my opinion, he looks puffy and tired on screen. Interestingly, though, I didn't think that was the case in the DOD pictures and videos we've seen or during the Thanksgiving Day Parade, so it's almost as if they are intentionally giving him that look for DAYS. I realize EJ has been through a lot these past months - but if Kate and Chloe can go through major illnesses and comas in full make up I don't see why there would be a need to de-sexify EJ. :-/
|Dec 15 2009, 09:01 AM Post #355
^ I recently watched a clip of EJ and Kate from his first few months on the show, and I wholeheartedly agree. He was slim and shaven and looked so young and hot.
The bulk has definitely aged him and the constant stubble makes him look years older than what he is. Not sure why he felt the need to do that. I thought it was because between GG and EM, he wanted to be ripped like that too, but back in the skinny day, the man had the best body there was. Long and lean. I would really like to see him without his shirt on to see what he looks like...where is Celeste with a sceance when we need it.
But I always said if he lost the long greasy hair, I wouldn't complain about his looks anymore....so I have nothing to say. LOL! :)
|Dec 15 2009, 10:14 AM Post #356
|I also don't care for how the extra weight has effected his face. From the neck down he looks great (loving the occasional peek at how defined his pecs look) but his face doesn't look so good. Sometimes he looks like he is in his late 30s and knocking at the door of 40. What is funny is that all those months earlier this year and part of last he was long haired, unkempt and greasy looking just to make him look older at the behest of TPTB but he looks years older with his hair cut and an extra few kilos on his frame. The moral of the story - TPTB should have just sent him to the barber and fed him meatball and ham sammiches.
|Dec 15 2009, 10:34 AM Post #357
I think Ej and Nicole have a lot of potential, I don't think they are finished though. I do think that with time and a bit of reflection Ej will realize what Nicole did and how it in fact helped him know his daughter, raise her for the first 6 months and she was able to connect with him. While Sami was convinced on keeping her from him at every expense. I really believe when Ej realizes that Brady loves Nicole, he'll be mad and jealous. I liked Nicole with Ej because she was as bad as he was....and she accepted him for who he is without wanting him to change on her account. Nicole was the perfect mob wife, devoted to her husband.
If you ask me....I still think this is all going to be a bad nightmare that Nicole will wake up from when AZ comes back from maternity leave. Notice how this entire story has been all about Nicole's feelings, how she miscarried, how she felt after and why she did the switch...how we haven't seen Sydney bond with Sami...isn't that weird? Why not keep the kid around after Sami found out she was her daughter...keep her around for the holidays and then let Nicole take her the week after xmas....no...why? I think when AZ gets back we will see a scene with Nicole waking up in bed...the camera pans over and we see Sydney in her playpen and Ej hovering her....Nicole then tells Ej she just had the worse dream.....that she did all these awful things...and Ej comes in for a kiss and tells her..."ah..you would never do that".....we later learn that Grace was Sami's child and she did die of meningitis...and Mia gave Baker her kid and he sold it in the blackmarket.....baby switch done...enter the new storyline Brady/Arianna/EJ/Nicole....in her dream Nicole did admit to loving Brady and Brady to loving her...this has just been too weird...to anti-climatic and frankly not about EJ and Sami's baby at all but about Nicole's feelings, wants and needs.....

^Oh, do I wish that were true!
However, I still think that Sydney could be Nicoles. Notice how Sami hasnt had the chance to bond with Sydney. The GA has mostly seen SYdole and there's a lot of support for them. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE it if after AZ comes back, they find this out. I dont get why Sydney out there when they could have wrapped this SL up with Samis Xmas miracle? I think theyre waiting on AZ to come back! Just speculating!

I was about to say the same thing. I used to get distracted by his oily bangs flopping around when he'd start yelling and gesticulating, and kept hoping someone would kidnap EJ and not let him leave until he took a bath and got his hair cut. IDK why they thought a greasy hair helmet would be a good look for him.
|Dec 15 2009, 11:43 AM Post #360
^^ Yep that is why I think that it will be revealed that Sami isn't Sydney's mother and it's Nicole. Plus they haven't wrapped up the kidnapping around xmas....there is some sort of a vigil but I don't think a xmas miracle since scenes where taping just last week that showed the kidnapper with the baby....remember Casey's twitter pic? They are waiting for sure for Ari to come back from ML to close the chapter on the switch.

A few years ago, if you would have asked John Sparrow, the director of adult education, where Marion County ranked in GED attainment for Kentucky he wouldn't have been able to tell you.
"We didn't have these sort of rankings back in the day," Sparrow said.
Once the state started providing the rankings by county, Sparrow said he was pleasantly surprised.
For the month of June, Marion County ranked No. 1 for GED attainment, No. 2 for the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC) attainment, and No. 3 overall.
The Marion County Arts and Humanities Council's week-long art camp will kick off on July 11.
Each year, the council works with the camp educators to devise an interesting program for the students to experience.
Marion County was well-represented during the 20th Annual National Junior Beta Club Convention recently.
Lebanon Middle School's Zachary Brady, the Kentucky State Junior Beta Secretary, was elected the 2016-17 National Junior Beta Secretary.
Lebanon Middle School students Gabe Nelson, Nick Martin and Abigail Adams placed fourth in the national special talent contest.

Cruz's TD is Giants' lone highlight
There haven't been many highlights for the Giants this season, but Victor Cruz's 69-yard touchdown temporarily gave the Big Blue faithful a glimmer of hope.
In the second quarter, quarterback Eli Manning took the snap, stepped back in the pocket and lofted a pass down the right sideline to Cruz. Chiefs cornerback Dunta Robinson was beaten deep on a double move, and the third-year wide receiver hauled in the pass.
It was all for naught, however. The play was the Giants' only score of the game, as they fell to 0-4 with a 31-7 loss against the Chiefs.

JASMINE M. TELLEZ, PLAINTIFF,v.WAUKEGAN ILLINOIS HOSPITAL COMPANY LLC D/B/A VISTA HEALTH SYSTEM, DEFENDANT.
Plaintiff Jasmine Tellez (hereinafter, the "Plaintiff" or "Tellez") filed a two-count complaint against her former employer, Defendant Waukegan Illinois Hospital Company LLC d/b/a Vista Health System (hereinafter, the "Defendant" or "Vista"). In Count I of her Complaint, Plaintiff alleges sexual discrimination based upon her pregnancy. In Count II, Plaintiff alleges interference with, and retaliation for, exercise of her rights under the Family Medical Leave Act (the "FMLA"). Defendant now moves for summary judgment on all counts, and also moves to strike portions of Plaintiff's responses and affidavit. For the reasons stated below, the Motion to Strike is granted in part and denied in part, and the Motion for Summary Judgment is granted in part and denied in part.
Plaintiff Jasmine Tellez was hired by Defendant in May 2002 as a patient registrar, and she worked both in the emergency room and outpatient sections of the hospital. In that position, Plaintiff received training about the proper access and disclosure of protected health information. Tellez also signed both the Vista Health Confidentiality Agreement and the CHS Code of Conduct, in which she agreed to access and use patient information only when necessary to perform her job.
In July 2006, Defendant determined that Plaintiff had accessed a patient's medical records for reasons unrelated to her job duties. Tellez provided an explanation for her conduct and disputed any conclusion of wrongdoing, but Vista nonetheless issued an Employee Disciplinary Action Notice on August 11, 2006, stating that Plaintiff's improper access of confidential patient information was a serious violation of hospital policy. It further stated that the notice was a final written warning and that "any further... policy infraction or unprofessional behavior will result in [Tellez's] termination." Vista presents evidence that it investigated three other registrars for similar misconduct and provided each with similar final written warnings.
Shortly after receiving this final written warning, Tellez discovered that she was pregnant. (Though the parties dispute whether she found out August 15 or September 21, 2006, both sides agree that Tellez's pregnancy was unknown to both Plaintiff and Defendant at the time of the August 11 disciplinary notice). Tellez informed her immediate supervisor, Ellen Anderson ("Anderson"), about the pregnancy as soon as she found out, and Anderson told Tellez to fill out FMLA paperwork if she wanted to take leave for the birth of her child. Tellez had a certification form filled out by her doctor on November 9, 2006; she submitted her paperwork on November 11; and her request for FMLA leave was granted November 17.
The FMLA approval was dated back to September 28, in order to encompass two periods of absence (September 28 through October 1, 2006 and October 10 through October 16, 2006) resulting from complications with Plaintiff's pregnancy. Tellez believes that other absences and instances of tardiness during October and November were also due to complications with her pregnancy, but she fails to identify specific dates for which complications were the actual cause of her absence, or provide medical documentation of such absences. Yet, Plaintiff's FMLA doctor certification form does note the possibility of intermittent absences, and Tellez claims she advised Anderson that she might need to be late in the future due to such complications. Plaintiff further claims (but Defendant disputes) that she made a request for light duty in November 2006, which was granted periodically, but then removed after a period of a few weeks, or on occasion after just one day.
In late November 2006, a patient contacted Vista to complain about her interactions with Tellez during a recent emergency room visit. Ginger Johns ("Johns"), Director of Patient Access, states that she investigated the matter by interviewing Tellez, all other registrars, and the patient complainee. Plaintiff, by contrast, claims that Johns refused to let Plaintiff tell her side of the story before imposing discipline, and that her interactions with the patient were entirely appropriate. Johns completed a Corrective Action Form dated November 29, 2006, noting the patient's complaint and Tellez's episodes of absenteeism and tardiness. Although Johns only intended to issue a warning, she was informed by human resources of Plaintiff's earlier final written warning, and Vista made the decision to terminate Tellez.
Following her termination, Tellez proceeded with Vista's internal grievance process. During that process, Vista removed the notations of absenteeism and tardiness from the Corrective Action Form "so they would not be improperly interpreted as a basis for [Tellez's] termination, as several of the episodes could have been related to Jasmine Tellez's pregnancy." Vista treated all of Tellez's absences and instances of tardiness as excused, but upheld Tellez's termination on the basis of the August 11 final written warning and the subsequent patient complaint.
A. Motion to Strike
The majority of Defendant's motion to strike attacks responses by Plaintiff which are merely conclusory or unresponsive. Responses such as these, which dodge the actual statement presented, or provide a kind of "yes, but" explanation, are clearly impermissible under Local Rule 56.1(b). See Flores v. Chicago Transit Authority, 2006 WL 2868904, at *1 (N.D.Ill., Oct. 4, 2006). But they are not uncommon. (Indeed, Defendant commits the same transgression). The Court has ample experience identifying such unresponsive answers and deeming the unrebutted facts admitted. The above statement of facts fully accounts for the Court's review of the parties' submissions, and no further explication of these factual statements is necessary.
While unresponsive answers result in a statement of fact being deemed admitted, the Court should strike the affidavits upon which those answers rely only if the statements in the affidavit are inherently contradictory to the affiant's prior deposition testimony. See Bank of Illinois v. Allied Signal Safety Restraint Systems, 75 F.3d 1162, 1169 n.10 (7th Cir., 1996). Very few of Plaintiff's responses meet this standard of actual contradiction.
For example, in paragraphs 14, 45, and 49, Defendant seeks to bind Plaintiff to her earlier acknowledgment of the existence of disciplinary notices and the reasons stated therein. Yet, the actual language of those paragraphs reaches much further, by claiming that the discipline was "for," "in order to," and "based on" underlying conduct which Plaintiff disputes. Plaintiff's earlier acknowledgment of Defendant's stated reasons does not bind her now to admit that such underlying conduct was the actual basis or motivation for the discipline imposed. Her responses, and the corresponding portions of her affidavit that set forth her version of the facts, do not contradict the limited acknowledgment of her deposition, and they need not be stricken.
Only Plaintiff's response to paragraph 33, and Plaintiff's corresponding affidavit testimony, reach the level of actual inconsistency. Defendant's statement that Tellez understood FMLA to cover "any problems with [her] pregnancy" is clearly supported by Plaintiff's deposition testimony, and brings into question Plaintiff's current assertion that she did not understand that FMLA would cover unforeseeable complications. Plaintiff's affidavit does nothing to demonstrate any ambiguity in the deposition question or any misunderstanding on her own part. Her broad admission that she understood FMLA to cover any problem with her pregnancy therefore stands, and the response and affidavit statement to the contrary are stricken. The Motion to Strike is granted to this limited extent, but otherwise denied.
B. Motion for Summary Judgment
Summary judgment is inappropriate where the evidence is sufficient to allow a reasonable jury to return a verdict in favor of the non-moving party. See Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 248 (1986). The Court therefore views the evidence in the light most favorable to the non-moving party and resolves all factual disputes in her favor. See Abdullahi v. City of Madison, 423 F.3d 763, 773 (7th Cir., 2005). However, the opposing party must go beyond the allegations and denials of her pleadings and identify specific evidence which demonstrates a genuine issue of material fact. See FED. R. CIV. P. 56(e)(2); Mills v. First Federal Sav. & Loan Ass'n of Belvidere, 83 F.3d 833, 840 (7th Cir., 1996). If Plaintiff fails to produce evidence sufficient to establish an essential element of her case, that failure "necessarily renders all other facts immaterial." Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 323 (1986).
1. FMLA Interference
The Family Medical Leave Act (the "FMLA") provides an eligible employee up to twelve weeks leave for the birth and care of a child, and guarantees that she is returned to the same or an equivalent position upon her return. See 29 U.S.C. §§ 2612(a)(1)(A), 2614(a)(1). It also permits either intermittent or extended leave for a serious health condition which makes the employee unable to perform the duties of her job. See 29 U.S.C. §§ 2612(a)(1)(D), 2612(b)(1). To enforce these substantive entitlements, the Act prohibits an employer from interfering with, restraining, or denying an employee's rights under the FMLA. See 29 U.S.C. § 2615(a)(1).
To prove a case of interference, Plaintiff need not make any showing of discriminatory intent on the part of her employer. See King v. Preferred Technical Group, 166 F.3d 887, 891 (7th Cir., 1999). She simply has to show that she was denied a benefit to which the Act entitles her. See Burnett v. LFW Inc., 472 F.3d 471, 477 (7th Cir., 2006). Accordingly, Plaintiff must demonstrate that: (1) she was eligible for FMLA's protections; (2) her employer was covered by the FMLA; (3) she was entitled to leave under the FMLA; (4) she provided sufficient notice of her intent to take leave; and (5) the employer denied her FMLA benefits to which she was entitled. See id. Defendant does not dispute the first two elements, and, at least for purposes of summary judgment, Defendant has conceded the adequacy of Plaintiff's notice.
Nor does Defendant raise a serious defense regarding Plaintiff's entitlement to leave. The FMLA doctor certification form submitted by Plaintiff clearly confirms Plaintiff's pregnancy and the complications thereto. It further notes the possible need for intermittent absences, and Plaintiff alleges that many of her absences throughout October and November 2006 were, in fact, due to such complications. Indeed, Defendant itself acknowledges that some of Plaintiff's absences "could have been related to [Tellez's] pregnancy." This is more than enough to raise a genuine issue of material fact regarding Plaintiff's entitlement to leave.
Defendant's argument for summary judgment rests on its contention that Defendant provided Plaintiff all the benefits to which she was entitled and did not deny any of her rights under the FMLA. Indeed, in many respects, Defendant's conduct was a model of compliance. Defendant encouraged Plaintiff to file FMLA paperwork; granted her request for FMLA leave; backdated Plaintiff's leave to cover two earlier periods of absence; and permitted Plaintiff to return to her previous position following these instances of approved leave. Yet Defendant fails to address the other absences for which it later disciplined Plaintiff-absences which (arguably) should have been deemed FMLA leave. To count these absences as unexcused, and then fire Plaintiff on that basis, clearly denies Plaintiff the fundamental benefit the FMLA was designed to provide her. Nor does Defendant's later removal of the absentee notation require this Court (or a reasonable jury) to find that Plaintiff's rights were not denied. At the time of Plaintiff's actual termination (which Defendant makes clear is the time at which Tellez was provided with and signed the Corrective Action Form), Plaintiff's absences were not treated as excused, and remained a stated reason for her discharge. Plaintiff therefore raises a genuine issue of material fact that she was denied FMLA benefits to which she was entitled, and Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment is denied as to this claim.
2. FMLA Retaliation
Separate and apart from the statutory protections against interference, the Seventh Circuit has found that the FMLA also prohibits retaliation against an employee based upon her exercise of FMLA rights. See King, 166 F.3d at 891. See also 29 C.F.R. § 825.220(c) (prohibiting employers from "discriminating against employees... who have used FMLA leave"). For a claim of retaliation, the intent of Plaintiff's employer is essential, and Plaintiff cannot succeed upon a mere showing that she was denied benefits to which she was due. See King, 166 F.3d at 891. Nor can Defendant's denial of leave be the action which Plaintiff claims to be retaliatory. Defendant's alleged failure to count certain absences as excused leave has been fully accounted for in Plaintiff's claim of FMLA interference, and there is no need to relitigate it under the separate label of retaliation. See Williams v. Illinois Dept. of Corrections, 2007 WL 772933, at *8 (S.D.Ill., Mar. 9, 2007).
Instead to succeed on this claim, Plaintiff must show that Defendant intended to terminate her in retaliation for FMLA leave which was actually taken and approved. She may make this showing using either the direct or indirect method. See Buie v. Quad/Graphics, Inc., 366 F.3d 496, 503 (7th Cir., 2004).
Under the indirect method, Plaintiff clearly fails to carry her burden. To establish a prima facie case, Plaintiff must demonstrate that she: (1) engaged in statutorily protected activity; (2) was performing her job according to her employer's legitimate expectations; (3) suffered a materially adverse action; and (4) was treated worse than a similarly situated employee who did not engage in protected activity. See Scaife v. Cook County, 446 F.3d 735, 739 (7th Cir. 2006). Although Defendant concedes the first and third elements, Plaintiff makes absolutely no showing that she was meeting her employer's legitimate expectations or that similarly situated employees were treated more favorably. Indeed, after incorrectly stating that Defendant conceded the first three elements, and that Plaintiff need only prove the fourth, Plaintiff's brief is entirely devoid of any discussion about similarly situated individuals who were treated more favorably. Nor does Plaintiff's Statement of Additional Material Facts succeed in providing this information. Plaintiff fails to establish her prima facie case under the indirect method, and she must rely instead on the direct method of proving her claim.
Under the direct method, Plaintiff must show either a direct acknowledgment of discriminatory intent by Defendant or a convincing mosaic of circumstantial evidence. See Lewis v. City of Chicago, 496 F.3d 645, 651 (7th Cir., 2007). Circumstantial evidence can include "suspicious timing, ambiguous statements... and other bits and pieces from which an inference of discriminatory intent might be drawn." Troupe v. May Dept. Stores Co., 20 F.3d 734, 736 (7th Cir., 1994). The circumstantial evidence presented "must point directly a discriminatory reason" for the employer's action, however, and be related directly to the employment decision. See Roney v. Illinois Dept. of Transp., 376 F.Supp.2d 857, 875 (N.D. Ill., 2005).
In this case, Plaintiff fails to present sufficient evidence under the direct method to withstand summary judgment. Importantly, the November 29 Corrective Action Form (which resulted in Plaintiff's termination) does not list any of Plaintiff's excused FMLA absences as a basis for her termination. Nor does it make any mention of Plaintiff's future approved leave or the submission of her FMLA request. The notice simply evinces dissatisfaction with the number of Plaintiff's (unexcused) absences, and a decision to terminate her therefor. While these absences arguably should have been treated as excused leave under the FMLA, Defendant's failure to so treat them is a denial of Plaintiff's substantive rights under the FMLA (fully accounted for in Plaintiff's above claim of FMLA interference). The Corrective Action Form does not provide any direct or circumstantial evidence to support a separate claim of retaliation.
The only evidence supporting Plaintiff's claim of retaliation is that her termination was suspiciously close in time to the approval of her FMLA leave. Plaintiff's termination came less than a month after she submitted her FMLA paperwork, and a mere twelve days after approval of her request. But such temporal proximity, standing alone, is insufficient to withstand summary judgment. See Sauzek v. Exxon Coal USA, Inc., 202 F.3d 913, 918 (7th Cir., 2000). Plaintiff must provide some further evidence which ties the adverse action to her exercise of protected leave. See id.
While Plaintiff argues that the two acts of discipline were unfounded and improperly investigated, neither failure points to an inference of retaliation. Indeed, it is clear that the final written warning which put Plaintiff on the edge of termination was issued prior to discovery of Plaintiff's pregnancy or any assertion of her rights under the FMLA. No stray remark concerning Plaintiff's use of FMLA leave exists to connect Ginger Johns' alleged failure to investigate the patient complaint adequately. Nor are there any other bits and pieces of circumstantial evidence which point directly to a retaliatory intent on the part of Defendant. Plaintiff fails to provide evidence of retaliation under either the direct or indirect method, and Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment will be granted as to this claim.
3. Pregnancy Discrimination
Under Title VII, it is unlawful for covered employers to discriminate against any individual because of that individual's sex.
See 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(1). Discrimination "because of sex" is defined to include discrimination "because of or on the basis of pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions." 42 U.S.C. § 2000e(k). As with other claims under Title VII, Plaintiff may prove her claim of pregnancy discrimination using either the direct or indirect method. See Venturelli v. ARC Cmty. Servs., Inc., 350 F.3d 592, 599 (7th Cir., 2003).
Because Plaintiff again fails to demonstrate, or even discuss, the existence of similarly situated individuals who received better treatment, she fails to state a prima facie case under the indirect method. Nor can she establish sufficient evidence under the direct method to withstand summary judgment on her claim. The November 29 Corrective Action Form provides no direct or circumstantial evidence of an intent to discriminate on the basis of pregnancy. It makes no statement about the reason for the absences and makes no predictions about how Plaintiff's pregnancy might affect her future attendance record. Indeed, the notice makes no mention of Plaintiff's pregnancy at all. It simply evinces dissatisfaction with Plaintiff's failure to appear for work, and a decision to fire her for that reason. Nothing in the Pregnancy Discrimination Act prevents an employer from making such a decision, even if those absences are due to complications of pregnancy. See Dormeyer v. Comerica Bank-Illinois, 223 F.3d 579, 583 (7th Cir., 2000).
There must be some further evidence which indicates that the decision to terminate was actually motivated by the fact of Plaintiff's pregnancy, and not merely its effects. See Marshall v. American Hosp. Ass'n, 157 F.3d 520, 526 (7th Cir., 1998). No such additional evidence has been presented here. The timing is not suspicious, as Plaintiff's termination came some two or three months after the announcement of her pregnancy. There are no disparaging or ambiguous remarks presented. Nor are there any further bits and pieces of circumstantial evidence pointing to an intent to discriminate on the basis of pregnancy. Accordingly, the Motion for Summary Judgment must be granted as to this claim.
For the reasons stated herein, Defendant's Motion to Strike is granted as to Plaintiff's response to paragraph 33, but otherwise denied. Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment is granted as to Plaintiff's claims of pregnancy discrimination and FMLA retaliation, but denied as to the claim of FMLA interference.

Originality died with Homer. Everything since then has been fanfiction.
Ah, you can't fool me, it's VMs all the way down!
Given the speeds involved it's unlikely they even felt it.
And yet they're still both negative. This isn't a semantic argument, it's the scientific meaning of the words. Acids are acids, bases are bases. If you are reducing your basic content you aren't "acidifying", you are debasing or neutralising. You only acidify something when you pass neutral.
besides it's all moot anyway. If the oceans warm they can't hold as much CO2 even with a higher partial pressure of CO2 in the atmosphere. This "acidification" of the oceans and global warming are mutually exclusive events.
And then you went away to read about bases, avids and relative ph levels and realised you were fantasizing a great steaming pile of bunk.
The oceans are basic. They have shown a very slight shift towards neutral, but there is a greater difference in ph between the arctic and equator. They are not acidifying in the slightest.
New variation on "if you've nothing to hide" hmm?
Elvish? Klingon? Old hat. Go look up FiM++ if you want real crazy.
Also, I feel I should long point that Arabic odds disconnect from OPs complained-about languages in that it is not constructed, but add-on actual, living tongue.
How, exactly, do words oppress someone?
The right to free speech is precisely what it says: the right to speak. You may exercise responsibility along with that right if you wish, but the right itself is nothing more or less than what it is: we have vocal cords, we can use them. It has no moral or ethical dimension, it is simply an acknowledgement of the natural state of the world. Codified in law, it becomes a requirement that the state not interfere with that right.
Free speech is one of the natural rights (or god-given rights if you're so inclined), also known as negative rights. A negative right has no requirement that others give up their rights to support yours. I can speak freely all day without anyone having to give up anything in order to support that right. No sacrifice of another's rights must be made to grant me my freedom of speech.
Actually, in French (and most european) law the court is part of the goverTment. You're presumably thinking in terms of adversarial separation of powers, a very anglo-saxon idea that just never caught on amongst the continentals.
This has odd results. English courts can set and overturn law by precedent because they function in opposition to the legislature and the executive, whilst Courts in France can't (having no ability to set precedent in the first place), because they acknowledge the supremacy of the legislative assembly and executive power. They function as an arm of government, implementing and enforcing the law. They can overturn law, but the law can simply be restated by the legislature, whereas an English court setting a precedent in an area of law can often force the legislature to abandon future attempts to craft law in that area as the courts would simply deny their legitimacy based on prior precedent.
Of course this all ignores the point the original poster was trying to make, and that he would have made much better if he had replaced "the government" with "the state". Courts form part of the apparatus of The State, along with the legislature, executive, armed forces, police and various other bits and bobs. The State, in this case represented by the Courts, is becoming more oppressive and thus more like the stasi. Though the better comparison would be the entire state apparatus of the GDR rather than just its internal security enforcement branch.
Plants are passé. You can't make a big "We're saving the world!" splash just by waving a tree at people, you have to be technological about it.
It's all a sop to green investment funds and politicians looking to shovel more subsidy at anything that looks even remotely environmentalist, and never mind the consequences. Or the costs. Or anything.
Oddly enough, the greasy finger marks don't show up so clearly on a matte screen.
In settings, check "pinch to reflow text" and there you go. Maybe it's only in ff beta, I don't use anything else.
You can't take this guy from me...
"Brain the size of a planet and you're using me to ask about the weather. Windows were invented for a reason you know. Next you'll be asking me when you should breathe in and out. Humans seem so pointless sometimes."
American? Shows what you know strum.
Perhaps you should go and read up a little on the natural rights of man.
How do you feel about the first amendment, Mooseman? Or the fourth and fifth? Or perhaps the eighth? All of them are over 200 years old. Are they irrelevant now because of that?
Or are you going to start picking and choosing? IN which case you need a better reason than "200 years old" to dismiss these rights.
The security of a free state is no less relevant now than it was then - but that security is not only about borders. A state remains free only as long as its government is beholden to the governed.
I get the feeling you've not read the Federalist Papers. These documents discussed the intent of the framers of the US constitution in some detail, and much of that intent was to provide the people with every possible means to overthrow their government if it became tyrannical.
Incidentally, Parliament ignoring old laws that restricted its power are the reason we're in such a cocked-up state right now. Parliament overstepped its legal bounds decades ago by ignoring its foundational documents; the Bill of Rights 1689 (go look it up) and the Act of Settlement placed limits on Parliament's authority and on the King, and restated certain constitutional rights such as the right to move unmolested by agents of the king, the right to bear arms and the right to be free of "unusual punishment", amongst other things. Today these laws are ignored - because they're "old", is the usual excuse, yet they are still as relevant today as they were when they were first drafted, and if they were observed instead of ignored we'd be a much more free and prosperous country.
The US constitution doesn't "give" them anything. The bill of rights is informing Congress of areas where it shall not legislate to restrict rights that were deemed to be the natural rights of man. Those rights boil down to the right to speech, self-defence and property.
These three are the fundamental rights on which civilisation was built. The world progresses when these rights are held inviolate, and regresses when they are proscribed and infringed.
For the record the president is not allowed to legislation per the constitution. Executive orders have always walked a fine line in this regard and many of them were unconstitutional in their scope (especially quite a few of those issued by Bush toward the end of his second term) even if they had been created by the House. The use of an executive order to infringe on the second amendment is opening Obama up to a lot of potential legal difficulty.
The voltage difference between each end will be rather impressive. You could probably prevent most of the issues you're thinking of by using it as a power source.
That logic doesn't even remotely follow. Blaming the judicial system for being the causative agent of his depression is constructive in that it identifies the most likely source of his illness. His parents and his family were not acting in ways that could trigger depression; they were passive participants at best, and unaware of his mental state. The judges and the judicial system were active participants in the events and did not need to be aware of his mental state in order to cause it.
That's the difference.
That's why the judicial system can be asked to shoulder responsibility for the outcome.
AC: Depression often looks nothing like depression from the outside. In fact it can look completely the opposite. Real depression, the serious stuff (not the "oh my boyfriend dumped me and I got a C on my test I'm so depressed!!!" sort) often looks more like exhaustion, cynicism or even a strange sort of joy. When you're depressed you think you've finally discovered the truth about the world.
Blaming the family is not remotely constructive. They probably didn't even know.
Nnnooo, it's making a subtle joke about the article.
As much as any other ISS module. They have a special radiation shelter for a reason.
If the windows can be replaced with a linux distro I'll be all over that thing like a rash.
Bacon fried in butter, one boiled egg and a pile of roasted almonds will cure that hangover right off. Guaranteed.
Given that privacy legislation is a sole EU competence (partially under the lisbon treaty and partially under european human rights legisation that became our human rights act), and given it doesn't allow any subsidiarity in this particular area, it's not so much "hooray for the EU" as "we could have done this years ago if they weren't sitting on it".
Ever wondered why UK privacy reform is so mealy-mouthed and bitty? They're having to work around the fringes of the problem because the EU doesn't allow national parliaments to act on this issue any more, so instead they legislate in areas where they can at least appear to be doing something. That's why were getting loas of bullshit laws criminalising everything and levying fines on everything else.
I remember when everyone claimed these giant squid were just a myth. Happy days.
Have the got a rocket big enough?
Oh of course, they can buoy it up with his ego.
(Don't get me wrong, I like Bill, it's just he's such an enormously easy target...)
Good choice.
The shutter control.
Except, of course, the little problem that is never acknowledged: the European economies had begun making all of the changes necessary to bring about this new peaceful era in the aftermath of world war 2, before even the Coal and Steel union between France and Germany was put into place, never mind the EU, which wouldn't be implemented until the mid 90s. The EU was late to the party, claimed credit for something it had nothing to do with, and in the end spent most of its time fighting over which of its presidents would get to hold the prize certificate and who'd pocket the cash.
The EU and the EEC before it did nothing to create peace in Europe. They rode on the post-war economic boom that was brought about by rapid (and necessary) cooperation and integration between the nations of Europe, then claimed they were responsible for it, when in reality they've done the most to rein it in and crush it with their constant regulation.
And the nobel peace prize wasn't meant to be awarded to organisations anyway. It's right there in the charter for the damn thing.
You should have got in sewer ants against that.
And you have the gall to compare other people to the nazis?
You forgot apple.
I was goig to say "you forgot mirosoft" too, but nobody likes Microsoft.
I thought it was bad when they invented the A* rating at GCSE. Never understand that.
I still don't.
Must be why I get such a snippy attitude on ebay all the time. "Will purchase from this seller again" probably means I want to murder their dog and eat their children these days.
Legitimising systematic abuse of your population through legislation does not make it good.
Perhaps someone said they didn't like paying the licence fee.
Linux is not "fragmented". It is adapted to multiple environments and capable of running the same tools and applications on the vast majority of them. Those environments where you can't run, say, Konqueror are probably not suited for desktop browsing in the first place.
To pick a random example, I could run abiword on my old n900, my desktop computer and, with a bit of tinkering, my router. Okay, a lot of tinkering, and it's probably not much fun running a word processor and all the other bits necessary to make that happen on a router, over a vnc session. It would be a dog.
But that's sort of the point. Linux doesn't fragment. You wouldn't want to have the exact same user experience across divergent devices. By the logic you're employing, Apple is fragmented because it has completely different user interfaces on iOS and OSX and can't run the same applications. It's a laughably stupid argument, yes? So why are you making the exact same laughably stupid argument about Linux?
Merry boxingmas.
> Asus Transformer?
Marvellous machine. Mine is still going strong after nearly two years. I think. I've written an entire novel on it. I'm considering replacing it with a padphone or one of those fancy slender models Asus do, at which point I'll likely start experimenting with some version of Linux + KDE just to see how well it works.
That should be UI, not GUI... oh well. Silly fingers. :D
No, the unix philosophy is one program, one task. Text is the interface. You just made the same mistake as the author, confusing the GUI with the OS.
My only two gripes about Android are the way it manages multitasking and the way Android-based systems are so locked down. I like to get a command-line interface to play with because I'm a tinkerer, but rooting and installing a terminal emulator gives me a lot of options in that regard. The multitasking issue is more fundamental. A few times, to begin with, I lost quite a lot of writing on my Asus transformer because I switched away from the app without saving and came back later to find it had been dumped from active memory and lost all my work.
Other than the enforced "save all the time" regime, which is good practice anyway, I have almost no complaints. Now if only I could get jellybean on my phone...
Likewise. I saw a demo of Plasma on the n900 some time back and it looked rather spiffy, albeit a little slow as it wasn't particularly optimised. It did all the necessaries though.
Given a little time it could easily contend with Android for the mobile space.
The writer seems to have an odd view of linux as basically just Gnome + Unity. KDE (yes, yes, I went there) is wonderfully touch-friendly and a very different user experience to gnome. Just as widespread, too.
But then, you see, that still makes the mistake of thinking Linux = UI. Android is Linux. Simple as. It's a fork of the kernel - but it's slowy being merged back into the trunk - sitting under all the same userspace tools, or at least a large subset of them, and it has a fancy Java-based UI on top. In that sense it's no different to Ubuntu, it just has more market penetration in the tablet space.
So the Linux tablet is already here. What we don't have is a gnome tablet, which is an entirely different kettle of fish. I don't want a gome tablet. I'd be rather keen on a KDE/Plasma tablet, but I have an android tablet. And they are all (or would be) Linux tablets.
Now back to the boxing day belly-ache. Turkey sandwich anyone?
I only saw the Captain Scarlet reboot last year but boy, what a nostalgia trip. It was the sort of thing the original Scarlet wanted to be.
Shame the broadcaster cocked it up...
Plastic means flexible and soft. We tend to associate it with hardness because petrochemical "plastics" appear hard in comparison, but they're generally quite malleable.
The question is, were they turing complete?
Computer says no.
Babbage was the only one to work on a true general purpose computer that would have been turing complete if it was ever completed. Shame it wasn't, really. We could have ruled the world.
Example below...
Surely a BSJ would also be 150 feet tall and somehow made from bergamot and rice?
Scum speaks to scum.
You're willing to exploit the deaths of children to "undermine religion".
Were he to exist, his noodly appendage would recoil from you in disgust.

WOMEN IN THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR The fate of the European women who came to the New World in the early days of colonial settlement was a life of endless hard work Many of them who came were already accustomed to physical labor For those who were not they quickly adapted They had survived the first 150 years of colonial life in America by providing labor which transformed the forest into farmland The labor of every able-bodied settler was desperately needed and womens traditional work of providing food clothing and cleanliness was necessary for survival Over the years the women had overcome the test of time climate trials and tribulations and had helped build a country by hand In the year 1776 after many conflicts with the British and the taxation laws America was ready to break free and women were ready to help Many reputable women aided the cause They protested importation taxes by boycotting English products including tea a popular item in America Wherever women lived they contributed to the war effort Women spun and wove their own clothes in addition to making coats and shirts for the American army They gave up their jewelry and cooking utensils so that bullets could be made from them Almost all women supplied food and medical aid and they took over farm work and managed their husbands businesses while they were away fighting The Revolutionary war began and the women like the men were ready to do what they could to help From the times before and even after the Revolutionary war the general thought of the country was that the womans place was in the home Yet judging from the stories and writings of those who lived during the fight for freedom women could have bettered the nation if they had shared political power with men Instead they were relegated to the role of housewife laboring over the cooking and breast-feeding a

California has the tallest (coastal redwoods), biggest (giant sequoia), and oldest (ancient bristlecones pines) trees in the world. One of the gems in the state is the corridor know as the east side of the Sierra Nevada mountains. To the East, along the Nevada border, are the White mountains. They are in the rain shadow of the Sierras which give...
Great experience to see the high sierra and the old living plants on earth. If you want to see both groves expect to spend all day here. Travel from Bishop is easy but does take an hour to get to the visitor center. From visitor center to the patriarch grove is another 45 minutes to hour. The Medusa trail is...
Always good place to visit and explore. Visitor Center is nice and staff are locals. High elevation for those who can tolerate it. We love the serenity of the day use picnic spots.
This has been on my bucket list for years. The realization did not let me down, The self guided trail and the solitude made it a unique experience. A couple of caveats: 1. it can be very windy and cold up there; 2. it can take an hour from the main road to get there; 3. it is at about...
The drive back to the Schulman Grove was a beautiful windy road. Lots of stops to take pictures. We visited in November so the visitor center was closed. We did the Discovery Trail 1 mile loop which was a very pleasant hike - bring water and sturdy shoes. We walked up to the old mining cabins on the Cabin Trail...
You have to go here! Have to...period! The new visitors center is a great place to stop and get some education from "ranger Dave!" An amazing and sometimes other-worldly place - depending on where you hike to.
The beauty of nature does soothe the troubled soul. There is something completely magical about these ancient trees. We hiked the Discovery Trail and the Mine Trail with a picnic lunch in between. Give yourself lots of time to contemplate the Ancients. Do not rush this hike.
We are Midwesterners that came out west to enjoy the scenery. And enjoy it we did! The variety of landscapes you see as you travel up to Schumann Grove is amazing. The road twists and turns as you climb the mountains. The textures of the mountains go from barren, dirt like mounds, to sage covered, and then trees show up....
The oldest living trees? You cannot simply drive by such a thing. This place and these remarkable trees continue to fascinate us. Do the hike if you can, you'll never be sorry.
We arrived later in the evening and camped at the Grand View Campground. Outhouse and no running water, but the most stunning night sky I have seen. There are no lights out there disturbing the view into the sky and we saw so many stars that our necks started hurting from gazing upward. When the sun came up the view...
If you travel there with dogs, they probably can't go on any of the trails? Can you see enough without walking the trails to make it worthwhile?
Would you recommend the 4.2 mile Methuselah trail for 2 adults with a 2 year-old and a 5 month-old worn in infant carrier? If so, how long would it take at a toddler's pace?
How far is the drive from lone pine to where they ! love the road in winter
I will be in Bishop for 2 days next week..curious how the roads are up to see this forest? Is there any part of the road that is closed for winter?
Do the White mountains get much snow? We're thinking about visiting during Thanksgiving week.
See all questions
