About Home Restaurant - Silver Lake
Located on the eastern edge of Silver Lake in the space that used to house Rudolpho's, Home is an aptly named restaurant that specializes in homemade, down-home American comfort food. The restaurant features a full bar and a tree-lined outdoor patio, which is a tranquil oasis with its bubbling fountain and koi pond. The indoor bar's four large television screens are dedicated to round-the-clock sporting events. The decor is a melange of old-time photos, Dodgers posters and carhop culture, and the inside bar blends wood paneling with brick walls. Like its sister location in Los Feliz, Home is a "a kid and pet friendly" restaurant all day and night. Home also features Happy Hour Sunday through Friday from 3pm-8pm with All Night Happy Hour on Sundays and Mondays and a Late Night Happy Hour on Friday and Saturday nights from 9pm-midnight. Street parking and valet parking in an adjoining lot are available.

Home Restaurant - Silver Lake Ratings and Reviews

This is our new favorite spot!! Outdoor patio allows dogs and they also had heatwarmers. We went there for Thanksgiving dinner/lunch, and then went back a few days later for burgers. Service was great! Everyone that works there is so nice! Loved the food!

I made a reservation to meet a friend for a Happy Hour/early dinner before a concert at The Greek Theatre. It was a fairly quiet Thursday evening. We had a reservation, which wasn't needed on this specific night, but it's always best to have one. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. We arrived in time to enjoy the Happy Hour prices, which last until 8:00 pm (SCORE!). We selected several appetizers to share. I recommend the calamari and mac & cheese bites. Several drinks, as well as beer and wine choices, were also available at Happy Hour prices.

The Service was horrific,I had a party of 14 people.they didn't sit us down until like 2pm when I had made reservations at 1pm. I had to get up few times to ask for silverware and water and for them to send someone to pick up dishes. Just BAD!
We went for brunch on a Sunday at 11:15. ...
We went for brunch on a Sunday at 11:15. The food was excellent: chicken fried steak with country gravy and poached eggs was a delicious indulgence. And the cocktails are very good. My friends loved their bloody marys.
However, service was lacking. Our waiter showed up immediately when we were seated, was very friendly and took our order. However, it should not have take 15 minutes to get a cup of black coffee. Yes, it was a Sunday morning. But the coffee is already brewed. Surely someone could have poured it in a cup and brought it over. My cocktail came from the bar before my boyfriend's coffee did. We ended up flagging down a different waitress to bring the coffee. While waiting for the coffee, we asked a man refilling water glasses if we could have waters. He said yes, but never returned.
Our waiter appeared again 20-25 minutes after placing our order when our food arrived, and to drop off the check. Maybe he was having an off day, but the coffee thing was pretty terrible.
The food is great, but I don't want to have to be aggressive to get service. I will return another time to see if the service improves.
Had a lovely time at the restaurant, sit ...
Had a lovely time at the restaurant, sitting outside in the shade despite the heat. We went for Sunday brunch and had sparkling wine or mimosas with our meals. We also parked along Riverside rather than paying for valet, hence had a slight trek, but only a minute or so. Our meals were very good - this isn't the cheapest place, but the quality is very good. I had to have a sandwich as I couldn't find one salad that worked for my palate (which is amazing as they have a lot of them), but maybe that's just me. (I wanted chicken and avocado but not with quinoa and toasted sunflower seeds.) Only slight oddity was that although we checked in with the host by name and were seated right away they marked me as a "no show" for some reason. However, once I replied to OpenTable's email this was corrected, so it all worked out in the end. (Given the number of no-shows OpenTable probably gets, their email was very politely worded, starting off with an apology and a link to use if I'd actually kept the reservation, to kudos to them.)
Food good but service fell short. Serve ...
Food good but service fell short. Server was exceptionally pleasant but she wasn't 'on it'...appetizers way late and temperature was simply warm as if they had been sitting (had to ask her to check on them). Barely attentive...swear we didn't see her around foe a good 20 minutes at a certain point.
Will I go back? Most likely...have been an occasional client for years...but definitely will avoid 'her' section.

We were pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed our first visit to this restaurant. We are looking forward to going there again in the near future. Our guests from Argentina also enjoyed their time spent at the Home Restaurant.

The staff was great. Came here as a hoodbye event because I got a new job. They were very helpfully and kind to my friends. The staff made me have a great last day with them. Thank you for taking care of a group of over 15
Food was good, however, a little disappo ...
Food was good, however, a little disappointed by service. Although staff was overall friendly, using Open Table was extremely problematic. Although we were told everything was fine using the app, they took a long time processing the payment. After processing, they chased us out the door claiming it didn't go through. We paid with another card, only to find we were charged twice. Upon presenting this issue, we were told our second charge would be reimbursed quickly. This was never done. I am still in the process of disputing this charge. A $30 meal has now turned into a $60 charge.
Trying to get someone to take your drink ...
Trying to get someone to take your drink order in the bar is a challenge. My friend and I waited for 15 minutes (morning, no less). , when we gave up and went outside to wait for our table. Our waiter outside was terrific.

Favorite brunch spot! Fabulous savory dishes, such as smoked salmon or crab benedicts, equally creative sweet dishes, like red velvet pancakes. They can also substitute soyrizo for chorizo upon request. Friendly service. They have a huge, covered patio, so most of the tables are outdoors without being too exposed to the elements. Great place for foodies but not pretentious. Highly recommend!
Great menu for groups - vegans and meat ...
Great menu for groups - vegans and meat eaters can easily coexist, and they accommodate other dietary needs as well. Many food choices, so allow time to read the menu :) Value for the buck - generous portions. Fun atmosphere. Little dim inside, but not in a bad way. Feels like a lodge. If you want a bright experience, dine outside. Very Very friendly staff. Busy on weekends - so make a reservation esp if it's a large group. You can valet, but if you allow time, you often can find street parking on Riverside Drive.
A nice hidden spot
The neighborhood though being technically Los Feliz is not so engaging, right along I-5 but once inside the restaurant, with its nice and secluded patio, the atmosphere is really intimate and cozy.
No frills very good food, and our server - I unfortunately do not remember her name - was extremely nice and welcoming.
We'll be back !
The only negative point would be the totally useless valet. There is a parking lot on the restaurant premises, and we had to pay $5 to a valet who literally moved our car 10 yards away.
Thoroughly Mediocre
I would only come here if there were nowhere else to go. The food is just awful - the breakfast burrito is bland, the vegetables in my friend's dish were virtually raw when they had been described as "grilled", and the waiter was unwilling to assist with my allergy restrictions. Don't waste your money.
Better luck if there is another time. Go ...
Better luck if there is another time. Got early reservations in the morning for an early breakfast. Arrived at the restaurant at 8am. First time there so was unfamiliar with the entrance. Ordered the chicken and waffles and French toast. We were the first order placed in the kitchen. The waffles came out cold, so cold the butter couldn't melt on the waffle. The French toast was a tad warm. Heard great things about this place. Very disappointed.
Home feels like home . . .
The food at Home is really great. This is a little gem of a restaurant that isn't overly crowded but offers a great list of delicious cocktails. The dishes range across the board from super healthy to absolutely indulgent, but all of them are very well done.
I love the multigrain salad - I've had it with no protein, with chicken and with tuna - all are great. The ceviche tacos which are seasonal are excellent. The chicken piccata is excellent.
The scene is super casual and yet also very hip. I only wish I lived closer - love this spot.

James Cameron's hit movie "Avatar" showcases one possible future for today's social networks, writes Daniel Terdiman. As technology improves, people will want sites that combine immersive, "Avatar"-style virtual worlds with the connectivity of Facebook and Twitter, he argues. "The Second Lifes of the world missed an opportunity to give mass numbers of people the kind of personal connection they really wanted," Terdiman adds. "The key is to find a way to mix the virtual and the real."

The EU has reportedly opened an informal investigation into Ireland, Luxembourg and Holland over assurances that they may have given to multinational corporations about how their tax affairs would be treated.
The probe comes amid a furor over how major companies such as Starbucks (SBUX) and Apple (AAPL) use the three countries to limit their global tax bills. The EU is looking at whether any tax breaks that firms may have been offered breach state-aid rules.
If Brussels finds wrongdoing, it could force the countries to collect lost revenue from any unlawful deals.

Henri Billet
Daily Forecast for December 10th 2016
Henri Billet is a male celebrity.
He was born on Friday February 3rd 1882, in Chateauroux, France,.
During December 10th 2016, Henri Billet's momentum slows. He faces disappointment in his career, mixed with emotional turmoil.
Henri is moody today, coupled with lack of drive and persistence.
For Billet, today is a good day for hugging and kissing, and focusing on people rather than on material things.
While studying the color and flavor of the day, it is a good practice to keep in mind the greater meaning of December and the master plan of 2016 in Henri's life.
You and Henri
About Henri's Numerological Forecast & Personal Day Cycle
Just as Henri Billet evolves through a nine-year cycle and experiences the nine-month cycle, he is also subjected to nine-day cycles, even though their impact is subtle compared to the Personal Year and even Personal Month cycles. The Personal Day cycles proceed according to the same pattern - 1 through 9 - that the Personal Year and Personal Month cycles do. The numbers within the daily cycles have a similar impact on Henri to the yearly and monthly cycles - though less pronounced.

"Hello, boys and girls, I am Bola, and this is my little sister Lemon. " "Hello, my dear friends, I am Lemon, we are two figures in this story, and we come from China." "Well, this is a juvenile scifi (science fiction) story about alien, asteroid, outer space, sorcerer and sorceress, giant panda and superman, as well as Tibet and China." "Are you interested in the Chinese traditional culture ?" "Do you want to know something about Chinese traditional culture ?" "Did you ever read some adventure stories from China ?" "Have you ever heard some stories about any SUPERMEN who especially came form China ?" "Do you ever plan to travel around the world even though you always stay at home ?" "Well, when you read this story, my brother and I will take you to travel some beautiful places around the world and to discover some interesting things with us in this story. " "The Chinese ancient work 'Journey to the West', which was written in Ming dynasty in China about more than almost four hundred years before, is very famous in China, and the monkey king, one of the figures in the ancient work 'Journey to the West' is well-known and very popular for those children in China. We Chinese boys and girls love to read those stories about the monkey king very much." "Now, in this story, Bola and I, we came back to 2036 from 2046 by a way of almost Time Machine, and then we met with the monkey king just now in a toy store beside an amusement park. The monkey king told us that there is a very crisis mission which would need us to go to accomplish urgently, it is to rescue the whole world from the aliens invasion ... ..." "Right, that's just ten years before 2046, it's just in the future of some years later, it's not so far." "Well, boys and girls, shall we go now ... ..." "Let's go to accomplish the urgent mission right now ... ... " "Lemon, wait, please wait for a while, I have something to do firstly... ..." "You, you, you are going to the washroom once again? Bola, you are really so troublesome ... ..." They are the two central figures of Bola and Lemon in this story, they are talking to you, yeah, just to you, my dear readers. Just for all of my dear children's adventure fiction lovers in the world, to travel and to discover, to get to know a lot about the world. -- Renhe Zhang
About Renhe ZhangHello, boys and girls, I am your friend, I am Renhe Zhang, I live in China right now. I wish I could create some interesting stories for you - my dear readers. In this work, I am so pleased that I am creating two new superstars for all the children in the world as well as those adults who love to read the children adventure stories. I am trying my best to do this work so that I would not make you feel some disappointed to read these stories. Now the elements or the components of Chinese culture sometimes often appear in some Hollywood blockbusters, so I just want to show what a Chinese superman in my mind looks like. Saving the earth, healing the world, loving peace and upholding justice are the theme of my project. I wish my readers may get pleasure or some fantastic feelings from my works either. As you know, China has a population of almost 1.4 billion, it's about a quarter of the whole population in the world, it's really a vast cultural market in China, so I think there should have a SUPERMAN or SUPERSTAR coming from China at present era. I just wish and try to create a superman who is coming from China for all the people in the whole world as well as the Chinese people themselves either, I just try my best to dream that it would be very popular in the whole world as well as the Chinese cultural market in the coming future. I believe the elements or components of Chinese traditional culture should have strong vitality among those human civilizations in the world either. I know how well-known the ancient famous work "Journey to the West" is in China. I know what the Chinese people want to watch and read. And now I just wrote some stories rising from some of the traditional Chinese culture elements. I wish it would be accepted easily by my readers either. I suppose perhaps the whole world is expecting to see a superman coming from the Chinese traditional culture, and another side, regarding the cultural field, maybe the Chinese literature markets themselves are looking forward to being able to see a NEW superman from their own Chinese traditional culture elements either. Thanks so much for you love to read my writings, and wish you could get so much pleasure and enjoyable feeling from my works, I am your sincere friend. - Renhe Zhang.

Use these to pass it on:
You know how we at FR used to bemoan the deluded state of the sheeple and wonder if ANYTHING would ever wake them up? Well......at least a reasonable share of them may well have come out of their Rip Wan Winkle state after 9/11. A terrible way for it to have to occur, but at least it may well have happened. And remember, we didn't need to wake up ALL the sheeple, just a good share of them to get our points across.
Wierd, I was thinking the same thing. "Let them eat cake!"
Oh, and by the way: BTTT
Right on target! BTTT!!!
(The Right Stuff is a bonafide Florida FReeper!)
Florida FReeper FRegards!
Of course she will. After all, she assured us she was a Yankee fan before the election. And, naturally, she can get free tickets. Why wouldn't she go?
In addition, she had her husband pardon the Puerto Rican terrorists who blew up the police in order to get the Puerto Rican votes.
It was her fault she got booed. Not the fault of right wing radio as her worshipers claim.
I absolutely PRAY Hillary the Great will attend a World Series game. If she's going to, I hope to see notice of it on FR in advance so I can watch the pre-game stuff just to see what will happen. I doubt she will try this, though, especially after the WTC Benefit Concert appearance. But, I am still hoping she will so I can watch and savor the moment.
Appreciate correct usage of the past tense for this verb. You don't see it too often. Jennifer, if you're not lurking here, you should be.
Maybe we'll hear from her. I'll let you all know if she replies to my e-mail.
Oh, yeah, and BOOOOOOO HILLARY!!!
PLEASE post it if you do. Thanks :)
The NYC firemen and police really are heros.
Queen Hillary I was SGA president at Wellesley. How could these commoners know anything. Queen Hillary I knows what is best for them. They should all just bow down to kiss her elitist fat butt.
Hopefully, she'll quit showing up so much.
If she appears in public where free speech is "permitted" by such despots as our Founding Fathers, she gets hammered: where fire fighters, police, freepers and other people who actually perform value added work can boo her and challenge her.
Her complete lack of any earned respect shines through for all to see when she is outside of an artificially cocooned environment.

Learn a Little Lit—mystery / crime thrillers
Learn a Little Lit—mystery / crime thrillers
Thursday, 19 July 2012 09:09
Do mysteries
and thrillers make good book club reads? More important, do they lead to good discussions?
Take a stroll
through any bestseller list; you'll find thrillers and detective stories at (or near) the top. I love suspense mysteries (
them)! But here's my suggestion—read them on your own time. They don't necessarily inspire great book club discussions, primarily because characters are short on development...and plot discussion boils down to "what did you know and when did you know it?"
There are
, of course, exceptions. A number of recent authors have jumped the genre ... moving the mystery/crime thriller into "literary fiction." What's that mean?
When critics talk
like that about a crime thiller—specifically the new Gillian Flynn
Gone Girl
...or Tana French's
Broken Harbor
—they're talking about wonderful, often witty, prose; solid character development; and the exploration of philosophical ideas.
Kate Atkinson
is another writer who's moved the genre into high literary gear.
The three
—Flynn, French, and Atkinson—are not only terrific suspense writers...they've been singled out as writers who probe deeply into character, motivation, how the past impinges on the present, and the nature of good and evil. They get us to ponder our own relationships, as well as the untenable choices life sometimes gives us. In other words, they make us
...and thinking always makes for good book conversations!
On top of
good writing, two other requirements exist for great mystery/thrillers:
The author must let the line out slowly, knowing precisely when to withhold—and when to release—information. It's a plot technique known as "suspended revelation,"—mysteries depend on it; in fact, it's their defining characteristic. (
See LitCourse 6 on Plot
The clues should be burried in plain sight—yet so cleverly that the reader won't pick up on them. Great mysteries stand up to a re-read, which only then reveals how, when, and where the author hid the clues.
If neither of those conditions is met, the story turns predictable, losing the element of surprise—the very thing that makes mysteries and thrillers so satisfying.
2012-08-13 14:39
I agree that it is sometimes hard to find a Mystery which works well in a book discussion. Laura Lippman's I'd Know You Anywhere made for a great book discussion as well as Anita Shreve's Weight of Water (though not strictly a mystery). I think there are many fiction books which are also considered thrillers/mysteries, you just need to broaden your search a bit. I will be sugggesting both of Catherine O'Flynn's books (What Was Lost and The News Where You Are) for upcoming mystery book discusssions. I could go on and on, but you get the idea.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICAv. MAGISTRATE SAAIM ASLAM
ORDER FOR DEFENDANT'S CONDITIONAL RELEASE AND NOW, this 7th day of March, 2013, upon hearing arguments from both the Government and Defendant regarding the Defendant=s detention status pending his appearance in the Eastern District of Texas on Criminal Case No. 12-cr-75-06 (E.D. Tex., filed Feb. 14, 2013), it is hereby ORDERED that the Defendant shall be released pending his appearance in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division, subject to the following conditions:
1. Defendant shall post $225,000 to secure his appearance in the Eastern District of Texas in cash or real estate security;
a) The Court will accept as part of that security, the property owned and pledged by Mohammed M. Kamal and Atika Kamal, at 106 Peach Street, Avenel, New Jersey;
b) The Court will further accept that the property has a fair and reasonable market value of $160,000 based upon a real estate appraisal report prepared by Joseph Fisher, IFA, dated March 5, 2013 and presented to the Court on March 6, 2013;
c) Counsel for Defendant has represented that the property is free of liens of any sort, including judgments. The Court acknowledges that representation, but defers to the Clerk of Court to confirm that such is the case. Any liens or encumbrances upon the property that may appear shall be deducted from the Court's accepted value of $160,000.
d) The remaining $65,000 shall be deposited as cash or cash equivalence with the Clerk of Court.
e) At least $25,000 of that sum shall come directly from the Defendant. f) The Defendant shall be confined to the 106 Peach Street location and be electronically monitored by GPS and by means and methods of implementation to be determined by United States Pretrial Services. Defendant will not, however, be released from custody until such time as Pretrial Services has verified that there is a working land-line telephone at the 106 Peach Street location.
g) The defendant shall be deemed to be in the custody of Mohammed M. Kamal, his uncle, who has agreed to undertake custodial responsibilities over the Defendant. Following a colloquy with Mr. Kamal and the Defendant in open court, the Court is satisfied that Mr. Kamal, a naturalized U.S. citizen and a professional physical therapist, will undertake those responsibilities properly and fully appreciates that any violation of these conditions will not only subject the Defendant to be remanded into custody, but will bring about the forfeiture of the security posted.
h) Upon notification of the United States Attorney of a court date for the Defendant's appearance in the Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division, the Defendant, together with the custodian, shall commence travel to Sherman, Texas by automobile and, on or prior to that hearing date, report to United States Probation, United States Courthouse Annex, 200 N. Travis Street, Sherman, Texas 75090, at which time the Defendant shall have his monitoring device removed, be remanded into custody of the U.S. Marshal to secure his appearance in court.
i) The custodian shall maintain contact with Pretrial Services to be certain of the date, time, and location of that court appearance and report as directed. Defendant will not commence travel to Sherman, Texas until such time as he is given specific permission to do so by Pretrial Services.
j) The Defendant may be permitted to leave the residence in New Jersey only for treatment of a serious medical issue or to consult with counsel. Should such an event occur, Defendant shall provide prior notice to Pretrial Services as they direct and shall be accompanied by the custodian.
2. The Defendant shall surrender his passport and any other travel-related documents to United States Pretrial Services;
3. There shall be no weapons in the location where Defendant shall take residence; 4. Defendant shall avoid contact with witnesses and/or victims and/or alleged co-conspirators of the alleged committed conduct;
5. Defendant shall allow United States Pretrial Services access to his lines of credit and bank accounts; and
6. Defendant shall not commit a Federal, State, or local crime during the period of release. The commission of a Federal offense while on pretrial release will result in an additional sentence of a term of imprisonment of not more than 10 years, if the offense is a felony; or a term of imprisonment of not more than 1 year, if the offense is a misdemeanor. This sentence shall be in addition to any other sentence.
It has been reported to the Court that the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Texas intends to take an appeal of this Order. Upon motion of the Government, we FURTHER ORDER that the implementation of this Order be delayed until the close of business on Monday, March 11, 2013, East Coast time, to permit time for the Government to pursue its appeal.

About 7% of 4-year-olds in Norway meet criteria for a psychiatric diagnosis
Question: How common are psychiatric disorders in preschoolers in Norway?
Population: 2475 children born in 2003 or 2004 who attended the regular community health check-up for 4-year-olds and whose parents consented to take part in the study. Of the 3456 children born in the city in 2003 and 2004, 71.6% participated.
Setting: General community, Trondheim, Norway; 2007–2008.
Assessment: The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) was used as a screening tool to identify behavioural and emotional problems. On the basis of SDQ score, children were stratified and a random sample drawn from each strata for a structured diagnostic interview, with a higher proportion of those with more problems selected (37% of those scoring 0–4 selected; 48% of those scoring 5–5; 70% of those scoring 9–11; 89% of those scoring 12–40). Of the 1250 children selected, the parents of 995 completed the Preschool Age Psychiatric Assessment interview to assess the past 3 months. Assessment of disability relating to the symptoms was based on the World Health Organisation International Classification of Functioning, Disability …

Appeal from the Circuit Court of McHenry County, Nineteenth
Judicial Circuit; the Hon. WILLIAM M. CARROLL, Judge, presiding.
Reversed and remanded with directions.
The plaintiffs filed this action to recover for personal injuries and for property damage to an automobile, allegedly suffered by reason of the negligence of the defendant in failing to maintain, repair and preserve River Road in such manner as to provide a safe surface thereon for the passage of vehicles. This action was brought against the "Highway Commissioner of Marengo Township," as defendant. The plaintiffs alleged, in the various counts of their complaint, that the defendant had the duty to maintain the road in question in a state of repair sufficient to permit safe travel by the general public and by plaintiffs; and that the defendant breached this duty.
The defendant filed a motion to dismiss, solely on the ground that the named defendant does not have legal capacity to be sued as it is neither a natural nor artificial person, but rather, an office or description of an individual person elected to such office. The court granted the defendant's motion and ordered that the complaint be dismissed. Apparently, leave was not sought to amend the complaint, nor was it granted.
The plaintiffs have appealed from the order dismissing the complaint, and have presented to this court the single issue of whether or not the "Highway Commissioner of Marengo Township" has the capacity to be sued.
At the outset, we must answer the defendant's contention that there was not a final order from which an appeal could be taken. The defendant points out that the order merely dismissed the complaint; that the plaintiffs were invited to amend their complaint to name the particular highway commissioner in office at the time of the incident, or his executor in that he had died prior to the bringing of this action , and that the plaintiffs refused to do so.
We believe that the decisions recently rendered by this court in Martin v. Masini, 90 Ill. App.2d 348, 232 N.E.2d 770 (1968), and Peach v. Peach, 73 Ill. App.2d 72, 78, 218 N.E.2d 504 (1966) sufficiently answer the defendant's contention. The order, in the case at bar, terminated the litigation between the parties and finally determined, fixed and disposed of their rights as to the issues made. It was final and appealable and the appeal properly brings the issue in question before this court.
With reference to the merits of the appeal, we are of the opinion that the defendant has the capacity to be sued. The relevant statute provides that the highway commissioner "shall" perform certain functions, among which are: determine the taxes necessary to be levied on property within his district for road purposes, and separately state the amounts to be levied for the construction and maintenance of roads and bridges, the purchase of machinery and repairs thereto, and for other items; lay out, alter, widen or vacate roads; direct the expenditure of all moneys collected in the district for road purposes and draw warrants therefor; "(C)onstruct, maintain, and repair and be responsible for the construction, maintenance and repair of roads within the district"; have "general charge of the roads of his district, keep the same in repair and to improve them so far as practicable"; and have authority to purchase or lease highway construction and maintenance equipment. (Ill Rev Stats 1965, c 121, pars 6-201-201.17 incl.)
Section 6 of Article V of the Township Organization Act (Ill Rev Stats 1965, c 139, par 49) provides that in all suits by or against town officers, in their name of office, costs shall be recovered as in other cases and that "(J)udgments recovered against a town or against town officers in actions prosecuted by or against them, in their name of office, shall be a town charge, and when collected shall be paid to the person or persons to whom the same shall have been adjudged." Section 6-402 of the Roads and Bridges Act (Ill Rev Stats 1965, c 121, par 6-402) provides that Highway Commissioners "may be proceeded against jointly by any parties interested in such bridges or culverts, for any neglect of duty in reference to such bridges or culverts, or for any damage growing out of such neglect." And, section 6-412.1 of the Roads and Bridges Act, as well as section 3.24 of Article IV of the Township Organization Act (Ill Rev Stats 1965, c 139, par 39.24) authorize township highway commissioners to purchase liability insurance for themselves, their agents and employees against any liability or loss resulting from the wrongful or negligent act of such officer, agent or employee while discharging and engaged in his duties or functions.
These statutes are in pari materia and should be construed together. People ex rel. Bell v. New York Cent. R. Co., 10 Ill.2d 612, 621, 141 N.E.2d 38 (1957); Bronson v. Washington Nat. Ins. Co., 59 Ill. App.2d 253, 260, 207 N.E.2d 172 (1965). The implication of the foregoing sections is that the "highway commissioner" is both the office and the officers and that he can sue and be sued.
In Euziere v. Highway Com'r of Town of Rockville, 346 Ill. 131, 134, 136, 178 N.E. 397 (1931), where the highway commissioner was sued as an entity, the court referred to some of the above powers and duties conferred upon the commissioner of highways by statute, and treated the office as a quasi-public corporation with implied powers to do those things necessary to exercise the powers conferred and to perform the duties enjoined upon it by law.
In Highway Com'rs of Town of Rutland v. Highway Com'rs of Town of Dayton, 60 Ill. 58 (1871), both the plaintiff and the defendant were highway commissioners and the suit was brought by and against each in his official as opposed to individual capacity. It was there contended that the suit should have been brought in the individual names of the officers. The court disagreed and stated on page 61 that the officers should sue in their official, as opposed to their individual, capacities. Thus, the court recognized the highway commissioners as quasi-corporations.
In McMechan v. Yenter, 301 Ill. 508, 511, 512, 134 N.E. 39 (1922) the court held that in a suit seeking a mandatory injunction to compel the removal of certain tile drains from public highways, the commissioner of highways, in his official capacity, was a necessary party. In remanding, with directions to make the "commissioner of highways of the Town of Ursa" a party defendant, the court noted that when a suit is brought seeking to bind the commissioner of highways in his official capacity, "he should be sued in his official and not his individual capacity." Thus, the court recognized that a decree against a party in his individual capacity does not bind him in his official capacity. Also see: People v. Baltimore & O.R. Co., 322 Ill. 623, 627, 153 N.E. 697 (1926); Euziere v. Highway Commissioner of Town of Rockville, 260 Ill. App. 29, 32 (1931); Illinois Nat. Bank v. Town of Bois D'Arc, 243 Ill. App. 587, 591 (1927).
Black's Law Dictionary (4th ed 1957) defines quasi-corporations as:
"Organizations resembling corporations; municipal societies or similar bodies which though not true corporations in all respects, are yet recognized by statutes or immemorial usage as persons or aggregate corporations, with precise duties which may be enforced, and privileges which may be maintained by suits at law." (Emphasis ours.)
Our courts, on numerous occasions, have recognized a township highway commissioner as a quasi-public corporation, distinct and apart from the entity of the Town or Township, and possessing both the capacity to sue and to be sued. People v. Rice, 356 Ill. 373, 376, 190 N.E. 681 (1934); Roesch-Zeller, Inc. v. Hollembeak, 5 Ill. App.2d 94, 107, 124 N.E.2d 662 (1955); Illinois Nat. Bank v. Town of Bois D'Arc, supra. Also, section 18 of the Civil Practice Act (Ill Rev Stats 1965, c 110, par 18) acknowledges the right to sue a "quasi" municipal corporation, as well as a municipal or public corporation, by providing the manner of service of summons in a suit against a quasi-municipal corporation.
This suit was properly brought against the office of the Highway Commissioner of Marengo Township if it was the plaintiff's intent as it apparently was to seek to bind that office in its official capacity. The plaintiffs could have added the name of the present commissioner, but that would have been mere surplusage. Also, if the plaintiffs had sued a named individual as Highway Commissioner, they would have invited additional procedural and substantive legal problems by virtue of the expiration of the individual's term of office and, as in the case at bar, because of the death of the individual. Highway Com'rs of Town of Rutland v. Highway Com'rs of Town of Dayton, supra, 61, 62. The motion to dismiss the complaint should have been denied.
The only ground raised by the defendant in its motion to dismiss was that it lacked capacity to be sued. We have answered this contention. However, both parties, by brief and argument in this court, also raised and discussed the issue of whether the defendant may be held liable in its official capacity for the tort allegedly committed. This issue was probably considered in the trial court, and undoubtedly will be raised on remand of the case; consequently, we will briefly consider it.
Until the relatively recent case of Molitor v. Kaneland Community Unit Dist. No. 302, 18 Ill.2d 11, 163 N.E.2d 89 (1959), there was little concern over this issue because of the prevailing doctrine of governmental immunity from tort liability. In holding that such immunity should no longer exist, the court stated on page 20 that the underlying concept of the law of torts today is that liability follows negligence, and that individuals and corporations are responsible for the negligence of their agents and employees acting in the course of their employment. The court held that this principle should apply to the school district in question a quasi-municipal corporation. At page 24, the court quoted from Dean Harno (Harno, Tort Immunity of Municipal Corporations, 4 Ill LQ 28, 42), as follows:
"A municipal corporation today is an active and virile creature capable of inflicting much harm. Its civil responsibility should be co-extensive. The municipal corporation looms up definitely and emphatically in our law, and what is more, it can and does commit wrongs. This being so, it must assume the responsibilities of the position it occupies in society."
In Harvey v. Clyde Park Dist., 32 Ill.2d 60, 203 N.E.2d 573 (1964), the court again held that a quasi-municipal corporation a park district was not protected by the doctrine of governmental immunity. At page 63 the court recognized that township and district highway commissioners are fully liable for neglect of duty, and cited Ill Rev Stats 1963, c 121, par 6-402 as authority for such conclusion, which section stands unaltered in the Illinois Revised Statutes of 1967.
The rationale of the Molitor case is equally applicable in this case. We have recognized the status of a township highway commissioner as a quasi-public corporation an entity created for the purpose of, and charged with the duty of, maintaining certain roads and bridges. To the extent that there may be negligence, in some manner, in the carrying out of these duties by the officer, his agents or employees in the course of their employment, the quasi-public corporation, the defendant, may be held liable therefor.
The fact that the agent or employee of the Highway Commissioner of Marengo Township, or the individual holding the office in question, under certain circumstances, may also be personally or individually liable, does not affect the liability which may also be imposed on the quasi-public corporation, the defendant.
We are not expressing an opinion as to whether or not liability in fact exists in this case, in that such question is not in issue before us. We have determined only that the defendant has the capacity, not only to be sued, but, also, to be held liable for the commission of torts.
For the foregoing reasons, the cause is reversed and remanded for further proceedings consistent with the views expressed herein.
Reversed and remanded with directions.

Cantor to step into private equity
Cantor Fitzgerald is planning to start a private equity fund and has hired former UBS Investment Bank managing director to head the new group.
The fund, to be called Cantor Capital Partners, will focus on middle-market investments. The size of the fund and its sector focus have yet to be determined.
Cantor has recruited Burke Dempsey to head the merchant banking effort. Dempsey has an extensive background in the financial technology sector and has a long-standing relationship with Cantor's chief executive Howard Lutnick, partly because of Cantor's eSpeed Financial electronic-trading subsidiary.
Lutnick said: "In establishing Cantor Capital Partners, we now have the ability to act as both principal and agent in corporate transactions, providing investment capital and advisory resources to our clients."
Dempsey has been a financial institutions group banker all his career, first at Kidder Peabody, then at Lehman Brothers. In 1993, he built the financial technology practice for Montgomery Securities and in 1997 he joined Friedman Billings Ramsey as head of its banks and insurance practice.
Between 2001 and 2003, Dempsey worked at what was then called UBS Warburg, where he advised on the initial public offerings of Instinet and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Since leaving UBS he has advised several wealthy families, including managing principal investmests.
Cantor has been expanding its business in recent months, building up a small investment bank and working on plans for the US flotation of brokerage BGC.

Giving gets entrepreneurial facelift
Philanthropic endeavours are usually one of the first things to fall by the wayside when the wealthy are faced with tougher times.
There are no European-wide statistics on giving. But trends are likely to mirror what is happening in the US, say experts – and there the picture isn't good.
The American Philanthropic Giving Index, produced by the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University, revealed that giving had fallen off a cliff in the first half of the year with a 21.7% decrease.
The index assessment of the giving environment fell to its lowest level since records began in 1998. Lena Schreiber, a senior consultant in the London-based consultancy New Philanthropy Capital, believes that the fall in giving has moved across the Atlantic.
She said: "Professional advisers tell us that wealthy individuals who might have intended to set up philanthropic foundations are delaying this decision, along with other decisions about their wealth management."
Those at the forefront of the industry say many of the wealthy continue to give, but are often looking for a more hands-on approach, demanding greater transparency and a return on their money.
Outright giving is being replaced by social investing and philanthropy is becoming more efficient and entrepreneurial as a consequence.
Mike Packham, head of private clients, enterprise and philanthropy at the Charities Aid Foundation, said: "Since the credit crisis, we've seen more philanthropists turning to alternative ways of helping charities, notably through specialist finance in providing the capital to fund loans to charities.
We expect the market for alternative investment to increase over the coming years as a more entrepreneurial approach to charity is adopted."
James Caan, a prominent British entrepreneur and philanthropist, said those spending the money of the wealthy – the charities – should adopt a more commercial imperative. He said: "Charities need to start running like businesses. Most charities are investing other people's money so they should be much more efficient."
Demands for greater efficiency, and returns, have helped promote the development of venture philanthropy in Europe. At the European Venture Philanthropy Association's annual conference last month in Amsterdam, co-founder Serge Raicher said membership had risen by 10% in the previous two months.
EVPA's membership is made up of individuals and corporations. New members include private banks such as Liechtenstein's LGT Group who are anxious to provide more philanthropic services to their clients.
The UK-based Bridges Ventures, an EVPA member, attempts to deliver social returns by investing in companies in deprived areas. The impact of its investments on the area is reported to investors alongside their financial returns.
Michele Giddens, executive director at Bridges, said: "There was a lot of scepticism in 2001 when we raised our first fund, but five years later, we have a second fund that was oversubscribed and raised £75m. You have to get real financial results as well as social impacts to do this."
So-called charitable bonds are another area gaining popularity among those looking for a different way to give. Citylife, the national charity that issues these bonds, will next week open the East London Bond on behalf of two community-based charities working in some of the most deprived areas in Europe. The East London Bond has a number of supporters, including City of London veteran and philanthropist Brian Winterflood.
Citylife bonds work by paying the investor back in full, but at the same time giving to charity. The bonds are available to purchase for a fixed period. When the offer closes, about 80% of the total is loaned to a social housing provider, while the rest is given to charity. After five years, the housing provider repays the loan with interest, taking the fund to its original 100% level, and bondholders are repaid in full.
In a similar effort to gain greater control over their philanthropic efforts, the very wealthy are setting up foundations in increasing numbers. Rebecca Eastmond, head of philanthropy at JP Morgan, said she had witnessed an increase in demand for foundations in the past year. She said: "They needn't be so expensive to set up. Some can cost as little as £20,000."
Stanley Fink, one of the UK's most vocal proponents of the importance of philanthropy and the former head of hedge fund Man Group, believes a commercial element should play a big part in the giving process. He said: "Entrepreneurs want to be actively involved in charitable work and actually see where their money is going, rather than just writing off a cheque."
Fink and others believe that for philanthropy and social investment to be taken more seriously, it would help if they were considered as part of a portfolio allocation by private banks.
Some wealth managers are adding staff to their philanthropy departments. Barclays Wealth, JP Morgan Private Bank, Citi Private Bank and Coutts have all added resources to their philanthropy units in the past few years.
However, UBS, like many others, has downsized efforts since the departure of two members of staff from its philanthropy department earlier this year.
Giddens said wealth managers still needed to take philanthropy more seriously. She added: "There isn't a clear place for it in the asset allocation table among wealth managers yet. It will be a victory when it is eventually accepted."

Providing a forum for those who would like to have some rigorous discussion, debate and exchange on some of the big issues in life.
Age requirement is 40 years +. Meets roughly once every 2 months in Elwood, usually on a Saturday evening.
Potential topics:
1. The Way We Live
Clive Hamilton (author of "The Freedom Paradox") suggests that one of the main problems of consumerism is the erosion of human values.
Food Inc (documentary at MIFF '09) showed chicken farms in America where the chickens never see the light of day from birth to death. However some of the labels on the egg cartons show bright sunny farm yards.
Technological revolution - computerisation of society is a recent phenomenon. Given the impact of technology in society, discussion on the pros and cons of people engaging in electronic media appears insufficient in mainstream media. Except for news articles on pedestrians getting run over because they were looking at their iPhone instead of watching for cars when crossing the road.
Internet addiction is a growing area of research.
2. Men and women
Some cultures have monogamy, some have polygamy. Some countries have an indulgent view towards extra-marital affairs, others have the death penalty. Whatever relationship arrangement different cultures have, clearly there is no simple answer to enduring harmony. In some countries marriage is economic survival, in others it is the hope for complete fulfillment. How realistic is "till death do us part"?
3. No Man is an Island.
Studies of places that have a disproportionate number of long lived people ( e.g Okinawa) often report high levels of community involvement and social connectedness, respect for the elderly, active lifestyles, healthy diets.
ABC radio national (621 AM dial, 6th August, 2009) aired a study on loneliness which found that the normal pattern for Western cultures is that loneliness peaks in the teenage years and at old age. The researchers were surprised to find in Australia that the peak was in the age range 25-44 yrs and unrelated to the number of friends that someone reported. The key issue was the quality of the connection and the researchers suggested there could be links with people having increased numbers of superficial connections (e.g. Facebook type) but lacking in-depth lasting friendships. They also suggested that this is an age where there is a high frequency of people changing jobs, location and encountering separation and divorce.
Robert Putnam (author of "Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community") found that more people watched Friends (popular TV show) than had friends.
4. And God is...
Of the 5,489 religions in the world, there are several different interpretations of God. Western culture appears to have largely gone down the "finding peace through affluence" path (buy a house, get a good job, save enough for retirement). Some eastern cultures place an emphasis on the balance of joy and suffering, overcoming the self in the pursuit of a more enlightened existence. Some religions have a unity model of the earth, others see man as the top dog.
5. I am Conscious
Do you believe that you choose or are you an unwitting agent of your unconscious?
Dr Vilayanur S. Ramachandra (eminent neuroscientist) said,"Our mental life is governed mainly by a cauldron of emotions, motives and desires which we are barely conscious of, and what we call our conscious life is usually an elaborate post hoc rationalization of things we really do for other reasons."
Aged 40 years and over.
Open minded, respectful of each other's views, able to have a robust discussion, even in the midst of vehement disagreement.
The whole is greater than the sum of the parts. Hoping that such a group may venture into many topics of mutual interest.
Meetings will have a cover charge of approx $15 to cover Meetup costs ($144 p.a to host a Meetup) in lieu of a membership fee and room hire costs.
Please feel free to use the group Message Board to organise other social activities/gatherings. I'm planning to schedule a Meetup roughly once per month but some people are getting to know each other now and want to organise additional things - terrific, post it and see who else might like to go.
Also happy to take suggestions on ideas for themes for meetings.

text: I just tried to jailbreak my 2g iTouch and I followed the instructions using the QuickFreedom program. Everything worked fine until I tried to load the firmware (shift+restore in iTunes). From there I first got the 1604 error. So I tried it on a computer I had previously restored and upgraded the latest free firmware (2.2.1 I believe). But it turns out that got the 1604 error as well. I have a third computer that I never plugged the iTouch into before and well...this time I can't even get into DFU mode. I tried holding home+power button while it was plugged it and i got either -it quickly restarted itself -it would go black and to turn it back into recovery mode I would have to hold the power+home button for ~20 seconds other problems: while its plugged it I turn it off by holding the power button. But about 2 seconds after I turned on (while its still plugged in) it turns itself back on. So I can follow the traditional instruction of turning off the iTouch, holding power+home button while its off, because when its plugged in it always wants to turn itself back on.
