Goof: Right after Beka says "Oh spare me Rommie, you only know what you are programed to", Lexia Doig (Rommie) visibly fights to keep from laughing.
Rhade (reading Harper's sign): Happy Anniversary!
Harper: You CAN read!
Trance: (Trance on how to make The Abyss leave Beka's brain) ...And that is to make her unappealing.
Rhade: Dead is unappealing.
Rhade: Well, Sir--Trance is a mystery, but she understands the Abyss in ways none of the rest of us do. I even suspect she may have been a part in defeating it before. Can she defeat it in Andromeda's VR? I wonder. The question becomes: Can you risk losing Rommie, Beka and Trance and survive with only Harper and me? I think it is a mystery that answers are found--you must trust the only remaining source of it in order to save the whole.
Dylan: Rhade--permission to speak freely more often--once we have more oxygen.
Dylan: Beka, breathe. (no response from Beka) Breathe, Beka. (still no response) Breathe, damn it! That's an order!
(Beka suddenly takes a gasping breath)
Dylan: I keep wondering what it must have been like for you.
Beka: Being posessed by the Abyss? Strange. But also beautiful.
Dylan: Beautiful? Well that's a disturbing surprise.
(Beka leaves Command to take a shower)
Rhade: Maybe that shower idea isn't so bad. (Dylan and Rommie stare at him.) Alone!
Beka: I'm here. I'm cold..
Dylan: Let me take you to safety.
Beka: I can't. I'm not free.
Dylan: You can fight this. Remember how tough you are?
Beka: Where are you taking me? No! Something's wrong. (her eyes turning black) None of this is right.
Dylan: There's that old sparkle in the eyes I recognize.
Beka: (drawing her force lance) You can not defeat me.
Dylan: Just because it works doesn't make it the right thing to do. Beka is still in there somewhere.
Trance: So is the Abyss.
Beka: Harper? You wanted to see--
Harper/Trance: Surprise!
Rhade: Surprise.
Beka: Anniversary?
Harper:: We needed something to celebrate, and guess what? You're it!
Beka: Harper, you're insane, you know that?
Harper: Ah hah, but you're smiling!
Harper: All right, sleeping beauty, here's a good one. Remember when we caught the fluorescent leeches? You dared me to eat one, not thinking I actually would. Remember how sick I got all over the Maru? You probably don't want to remember that, but me? I just can't stop thinking.
Beka: It's odd...you know, my time in the dark helped me see the light.
Dylan: Of course. It's the law of polarity. It's like good and evil, the two are mutually exclusive and then you're forced to choose between them.
Beka: I've made my choice.
Dylan: We have a battle ahead of us, and you, are at the helm.
Beka: Aye aye, Captain Hunt. (Dylan looks surprised that she spoke with proper military protocol) Yeah, I said it.
Trance: I have it with me. We will defeat you. Light. Illumination. Creation. There is no place where light can not be born.
(The Abyss growls violently at her)
Trance: Bring it.
Rhade: I used to think that either you were born unpleasant, or something made you that way. I find you confusing at best. But I came here to learn. And I think the real Beka has much to teach. So, if you can hear any of this, you might want to consider waking up. Even if just to say 'I told you so'.
Harper: Boss, there must be some mistake!
Beka: Yeah, like have I ever lied to any one of you?
Harper: Well--
Beka: Don't answer that.
Cast your eye upon the changeling,
then look for the origin of change.
Perhaps it is in the eye.
Luna, "Catalog of Companions"
Excerpts Written By Ethlie Anne Vare, Larry Barber and Paul Barber, Naomi Janzen, Emily Skopov, and Robert Hewitt Wolfe.
In the trailer of this episode, Beka's voice (in the simulation) can actually be made out as her own, while in the episode itself it is completely different, just as Trance's was in "Dance of the Mayflies".
International Airdates:
-This episode aired in Canada on March 6, 2004 on Mystery and Global.
-This episode aired in the UK on April 13, 2005 on Sci-Fi.
-This episode aired in the Australia on July 23, 2005 on Fox 8.
This episode contains a lot of flashbacks to previous episodes.
Stargate SG-1:
In the simulation of Beka's consciousness, the sound effect used for the voice of the Abyss is the same sound effect used for the voice of the Goa'uld in Stargate SG-1, of which Peter DeLuise is a regular director.

Let's Wine It On
With all of the untapped potential in the "sexy wine" market, we've decided to take our wine-selling in a new direction.
Maybe you've noticed our Phat Goose sale in the Woot Plus section of Wine.Woot. Seeing Fat Gus every day has surely stimulated your lust for wine. It's also made us realize something: there's a lot of sexy wine out there.
The Arcadian Vineyard 2006 Stolpman Syrah, for example, is oozing with sexy flavors. Described as "Fleshy and smooth, with sweet red and dark berry flavors and gentle tannins," this wine is perfect for special occasions -- awwww, yeah. It's even got a "building note of sexy, sweet oak spices." Need we say more?
Then there's the 2006 Purisima Syrah, full of erotic scents of violet, boysenberry, olive tapenade, and hot, hot, HOT cracked pepper. It also includes red and dark berry flavors and notes of olive, floral pastille and sultry, peppery spices.
See what we mean! These wines are downright sexy.

Fireworks retailers optimistic - Hawaii News
There are 21 comments on the Honolulu Star-Bulletin story from Dec 27, 2009, titled Fireworks retailers optimistic - Hawaii News. In it, Honolulu Star-Bulletin reports that:Fireworks retailers are still expecting sales to pop despite the sagging economy.

If you live in Waipahu, you have fire works every day and night of the year. We have people who set off these things that sound like bombs every night. Nothing is done about it. I am all for professional fire works, not fire works for idiots that set them off every night up until 11 pm. This is just another reason why fire works should be done away with !!!!
United States
#2 Dec 27, 2009
Don't ban fireworks. Just impose a very high tax rate on them. We could use the funds now.
#3 Dec 27, 2009
The poor and ignorant always waste what little money they have on things of no value. I don't quite find the fascination of exploding illegal fireworks from a communist country. Here are some novel concepts High School Mensas:
Open a bank account
Pay off your debt
Keep up with your child support payments for your
illegitimate children
Save for your children's college fund
No, you can't use EBT cards for Roman candles
Get a job, stop drinking, and fathering b-a-s-t-a-
r-d children
Is any of this possible; probably not
#4 Dec 27, 2009
Those which have been exploding since Halloween are obviously illegal. All it takes is one nobody trying to be noticed, to ruin it for miles around.
HPD has special units out looking for them, was quieter last night so may be working.
Hope for pouring rain New Years eve.
Casinos are quiet, enter by choice, annoy nobody, but the other 48 states who legalize it and collect taxes are wrong. It would be just plain stupid to even consider legal gambling, just think of the huge amount of money raised by fireworks permits. No need any more. LOL
#5 Dec 27, 2009
Island mokes love to spend what little money they have on fireworks.
#6 Dec 27, 2009
Very true. Section 8'ers with Nissan Titans, no job skills, illegitimate children, live with their girlfriends illegally, no future, no ambition, no education, ex-con father, and plate lunch eating neanderthals who suck society dry.
#7 Dec 27, 2009
You Californians are always sticking your fork tongues in Hawaii's problems. Why don't you take care of your own hauna problems? Drugs are pouring over your borders to find its way to Hawaii. I glad those cartels haven't started killing on our streets. OH by the way since you like to RAG on our poor, what about your illegal immigrants and their sneaking across the border to break your social services? No wonder you guys are broke A S S. YES we have problems but compared to you people this is still a paradise.
#8 Dec 27, 2009
So sensitive Hoss! No doubt the illegal Chicanos here are a massive drain on social services. Your state ain't got nothing on our poor. There is however enough land here so they are not in your face on a daily basis. Well, if there wasn't a demand for drugs there wouldn't be a drug problem I presume. The state is definitely broke; however most states are. Paradise you say? Those days are long gone for us all.
Since: Dec 09
#9 Dec 27, 2009
"I like the loud kind stuff," Hey, what about your neighbors? What about those of us who have to work the next day and can't sleep because you "like the loud kind stuff". Grow up please.
#10 Dec 27, 2009
It is amazing to us also how many on the mainland are always giving us advice like we live in caves. One of the worst is from Ill. thinks we cannot even read maps.
Then there is the group constantly telling us how wonderful rail is, as if we cannot figure out they have their bags packed to come here and work.
Also amazing that even the drunks and brain dead all over town at least know that they are better off here. Unfortunately we are forced to care for them dragging our state down also.
Since: Dec 09
#11 Dec 27, 2009
Yup and making ALL fireworks illegal will make it easier for the HPD to enforce. Get caught with ANYTHING and you are sighted/arrested. These firworks maniacs have zero consideration for their neighbors. I treat them accordingly. What comes around goes around!
United States
#12 Dec 27, 2009
I'm surprised that the large chains carry fireworks. There should be a class action suit against them if some little ckfu blows his hand off.
#13 Dec 27, 2009
I swear I think I no longer live in one of the United States of America when I hear the bombs going off all hours of the day! Hawaii has become a war zone with the local-kine terrorists blowing off sh*t for the past 4 months steady. I fully agree with making all fireworks illegal. I'm so tired of hearing it. If these jerks want so much to blow stuff up, go enlist and get your butt overseas to enjoy the real bombs which you love so much! What happened to the Aloha state? OOps, it just got bombed even as I write this!{BOOM!}
#14 Dec 27, 2009
word to the wise...dont be stupid....save your money.
#15 Dec 28, 2009
I can't believe that the SB is promoting more fireworks. Geez.
#16 Dec 28, 2009
Ban fireworks and cigarettes.
People who are addicted to both are selfish individuals who have no respect for law or other people.
Theie weak reasoning for this addiction is over ruled by their of breaking the laws, littering the aina and causing health issues for the non participants.
Politicians are weaker because they don't have the guts to effect a ban. Can votes be that important over what's good for the majority? So far the answer is a resounding yes. Sell outs!
#17 Jun 6, 2010
You may get your wish soon.
#18 Jun 6, 2010
Flame out; nose dive.
#19 Jun 6, 2010
4 kids, 16, 19, 23, 24 years old none of them have jobs, single mother on welfare, cop boyfriend...
No need to say anything more...
OMG, fireworks all year long from that house.
#21 Jun 6, 2010
Ban fireworks..mokes don't know how to use them and they are a danger to themselves and us.

Help For Overcrowded Jails?
 Miami Judge Steve Leifman will try to reduce the number of mentally ill people in the criminal justice system. Every year, an estimated 70,000 people with serious mental illnesses are booked into jails statewide.
Alachua County Sheriff Sadie Darnell estimates at any given time there are about a dozen inmates that shouldn't be in jail at all. She says rather than be locked down, they need to be living in places where they can get better.
"They need to be in a treatment facility that is trained and experienced and has the type of medications to help their specific illness," says Darnell. "If they are in jail because of an offense and have a mental illness, they are high maintenance."
Darnell says the county jail isn't equipped to give mentally ill inmates the treatment, the medication and the care they deserve. She says the appointment of Leifman is a move long overdue.

With the Stage 1, can you change tunes on the fly (like with the Stage 2)? Is there any loss in driveability or BMW smoothness with the BMS Stage 1?

TxF10, thanks for the willingness. I always thought it is silly the trunk button on the remote and by the driver's side can't close the trunk.
Sorry to hear about the delay Miamiboyca. Maybe you can ask if they will give you a loaner car until the car comes in. If you paid for the vehicle, you should be able to have one to drive around!
This Saturday should be great driving/show weather for C&C! I hope you guys are ready to make it out. Ramble and I met at the Target parking lot on 635/MacArthur last time.
The tune has adapted and the driveability of the car is the same. Just has a little more power to it across the board.. And there is no map switching for thw stage 1 tune. To be honest I really don't see the need for one, this tune is not so powerful the next person who drives the call will not be able to handle it. This just give the car some extra kick.
And yes I am going to go with the Megan exhaust at first and see how I like that one and go from there.

Thousands of bacteria lurk in college dormitories, but students are not following proper hygiene routines to help protect themselves from serious illness, according to a study released today from the Simmons College Center for Hygiene and Health in Home and Community, sponsored by an educational grant from LYSOL® brand products.(1) Despite growing concerns about influenza A (H1N1) on college campuses and recent study results estimating that of the ways influenza infection may be contracted, contact with contaminated surfaces may account for thirty one percent (31%) of the infection risk, only sixty three percent (63%) of students polled had cleaned their dorm room in the past week.(2) Eighty three percent (83%) had never cleaned their light switch and seventy three percent (73%) admitted they had never cleaned their dorm room door handle, one of the most frequently-touched surfaces and a conduit for germ spread.(3)

Melisa Bester is a part of our Hills Campus at Hillsong Church. She has sung on a number of Hillsong Kids albums and has now turned into a teenager with some serious talent… now I'm not saying I made her what she is today and that if it wasn't for the opportunities to lead worship she had years ago she may not have even made it this far… 🙂 just remember me when you're famous Melisa!
The compare vitamin prices reality is, she has a gift from God and her family have nurtured it and developed it.
Here is her first music video Wanna Be Free
Her album is out soon… or may be out now… can't seem to find anywhere to buy it?
I love seeing our kids grow up with confidence and pursuing their dreams!

Standard Air Filter and Code reset
So my radio stopped working on 2008 328i and i took it in to have it diagnosed. And when i did the dealer said it was 85$ to diagnose the problem and said that i also need to replace my air filter and need to reset my code (for maintence schedule).
He said to replace the air filter that it would be 125$ + to reset the code another 64$. Is that normal? I have about 43k miles on my car.
Also could i get this done somewhere other than at a BMW dealership?
Air filter replacement is a simple DIY, and you can re-set the service interval display yourself. There are loads of 'how-to' guides on YouTube.
I can't remember how much a replacement air filter was on my 330i but no where near that price I also think the reset the clock "code as they call it" can be done via the OBC or idrive depending on the system you have. Yes, the air filter is kinda a PITA to replace in its location. The $85 to have them just hook the car up to the computer and see the code for the radio issue sounds about right.
It might be time to find a indy BMW repair place now that the warranty is up on your car I would assume.
My dealer charges about $140 to change the A/C Microfilter and $50 (perhaps less) for the engine air filter. Both can be bought off of Amazon or other websites for considerably less money and install easily yourself. The A/C microfilter is a 5 minute job, the engine air filter perhaps 15-20 minutes. I wouldn't let the dealer change any of these unless they do it for free under the maintenance plan. :)
Again, both filters can be bought for $20-$30 each online. These are just easy money makers for the dealer to keep the Starbucks flowing...
Filters are about 25 to 35
Filters are about 25 to 35 mann filters are used commonly.
You will need a T20 or T25 driver for the engine air filter most
already have a metric socket set.
You can do the job yourself and reset the CBS recall yourself.
The Diy's to do this are found in the these sub forums
I would be doing them every 30k and if you and checking the Engine air every 15k.
If you are in an extremely dirty environment every 15k.
All the CBS recalls can be reset from the one of the levers on the steering wheel takes less than a minute probably 30 seconds
when you familiar with the procedure.
Do you know which stereo system you have is it Hi Fi , L7 or stereo.
If they want to replace and amplifier, you might want to consider and aftermarket solution
because it will be way to expensive for what you get.

Dr. Eric London, co-founder of NAAR, introduced a new NAAR award at this year's Annual Awards Dinner – the Science Service Award for Outstanding Dedication to NAAR and the Autism Community.
Dr. Manny DiCicco Bloom was honored to accept this new award. Dr. DiCicco-Bloom has been associated with NAAR since 1996. He is a pediatric neurologist and Associate Professor of Neuroscience & Cell Biology and Pediatrics at NJ's University of Medicine and Dentistry
at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.
Although his expertise is in the basic mechanisms of brain development, he had not really considered autism to be within the domain of his research. In 1996, he attended a research lecture on the state of the science of autism at Princeton given by Dr. Marie Bristol-Powers, then with the NIH. Discussions that day led him to rethink autism as a disorder of brain development—his area of expertise-- and also led to an invitation to serve on NAAR's Scientific Advisory Board. He served at NAAR's very first Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) meeting in December 1996 when there were only 27 proposals to review (!) and has participated in every meeting since as the number of proposals annually for NAAR funding has reached more than 250. Last year, and again this year, he chaired some of NAAR's review sessions, orchestrating the often impassioned and always stimulating discussion amongst over 30 or so reviewers.
Over the past few years, Dr. DiCicco-Bloom has contributed ever increasing amounts of time to NAAR as his own research interests focused more and more on the developing brain and the impact of environmental factors. In addition to serving on the SAB, he became an ad hoc member of our Scientific Advisory Committee, helping shape NAAR's strategic direction and overseeing the implementation of our scientific initiatives. For the past several years, he has worked with Dr. Eric London to make sure NAAR's grant application process maintains the highest standards of excellence—spending dozens of hours, including many evenings and weekends reading grants and identifying reviewers with the needed expertise. He has attended many neuroscience conferences as NAAR's representative and has recently been appointed to NAAR's seat on the NJ Governor's Council for Autism. In these and countless other ways, he has demonstrated an unsurpassed devotion and commitment to NAAR and its mission.

JAZZ 96, TRAIL BLAZERS 94: Alec Birks had a team-high 18 points as host Utah closed out the season with a fifth straight win heading into its first-round playoff matchup with the top-seeded San Antonio Spurs.
The Jazz rested many of their starters having already locked up the eighth seed in the West. Derrick Favors started at power forward in place of Paul Millsap, who was given the night off by coach Tyrone Corbin. Leading scorer Al Jefferson was limited to just 10 minutes of playing time.
NBA Slam Dunk champ Jeremy Evans threw down an emphatic one-handed jam to put Utah up 94-88 late in the fourth quarter.
After Portland trimmed the lead to 96-94, Wesley Matthews missed a 3-pointer at the buzzer that would have won the contest. J.J. Hickson led all scorers with 20 points.
The Trail Blazers closed out the campaign on a season-high seven-game losing streak.
The Jazz swept the four-game season series with Portland for the second time in three years.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Trail Blazers starting point guard Raymond Felton (right Achilles), and reserves Jamal Crawford (knee tendinitis) and Nicolas Batum (left quad) didn't play. ... Twelve Utah players saw action in the season finale. ... The Jazz finished the season 25-8 at home.

|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Ah, the East. Where you can be .381 and still make the playoffs. Where #5 and #6 can both be better than #4. And then there's the West. Where a team that would challenge in the East is middle of the pack. Meanwhile, Dallas has built up 10 straight wins to challenge the Spurs, who did the same (12 straight, actually) earlier in the season before dropping a game to the very same Dallas Mavericks. The Celtics have built a 1.5-game lead over Orlando out East behind seven straight wins, thanks in no small part to Kryptonate stepping up with Rondo out. The East's #8 spot is a tie, while the West's is within a game, so without a clear pecking order, let's look at what would happen if the playoffs started as of Wednesday, December 8, before the day's games:
9-2 at home, and 8-1 on the road? The Spurs are back in the driver's seat, looking for another title. Never mind that their one road loss was to the Clippers: they have beaten New Orleans since, Phoenix is 5-7 on the road, and San Antonio already won in Phoenix. The Suns may make it more interesting than the Spurs would like, but this is San Antonio's series in the end.
The Thunder are 14-8, 7-4 each at home and away, and they have Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, but the Mavericks have been that much better. Don't listen to Francine Smith; Dirk Nowitzki is not soft, and Ron Artest isn't even a power forward. This was supposed to be Durant's MVP year, but the Thunder have been struggling to differentiate themselves from last season. The Mavericks are having no such problems.
The Nuggets are an NBA-best 10-1 at home, which can only mean they're abysmal on the road (3-6) to be at #6. Unlike Denver, the 16-6 Jazz can win easily at home or away. It looks like the Carmelo Anthony trade talks have ruffled up a few feathers with Enos Stan Kroenke.
Since starting at 8-0, the Hornets are 5-7. And much like them, the Lakers are an excellent home team, but mediocre away. And since L.A. has home-court advantage, they'll be going places yet again.
16-4 vs 8-13. Do I really have to say why Boston will destroy Charlotte?
The Magic most recently hosted Atlanta, gave up just 80 points, and lost. And before that they lost in Milwaukee. However, they've already won in Indiana (twice if you count the preseason). And not only is Indiana just barely over .500, but Orlando is significantly better than that (perennially).
Seriously, how did the Knickerbockers win five straight to earn a better record than Chicago? And that's despite being 4-5 at home. Atlanta already won at MSG, but is only 7-5 at home in their own right. Atlanta had a tough time against Milwaukee in the last 1st round, and with New York's road record, this could be the big upset of Round 1.
After five straight wins, could the Heat finally be starting to live up to the hype? Talk to me again when that streak reaches 20. Though two of those five wins were in Milwaukee and Cleveland (I know, big deal). Chicago is 7-2 at home, but due to records, Miami has the home-court edge. If Miami keeps up their winning ways, they could regain their status as favorites.

Hello! This is Viron from Seraph. I've been trying to get these mitts for awhile now and have not been very successful. I mananged to get the offering, and found some people willing to help me out (Huge thanks to Ringoko (75 SMN), Desiree (70 PLD), Panacea (70 SMN, now 69), Scarey(75 RDM, now 74), and Legendofzion (60 SMN)). However everything did not go as planned, firstly we expereinced many deaths trying to get through the granite door (I happened to get aggro at a very bad time), and it went down kill from there. When we got to the fight it went ok to start with but we ended up wiping. I just wanted to say thank you to the above mentioned for helping me out, and that I'm really sorry that in the end I ended up wasting your time and exp.
I was also wondering if anyone would be able to give me a hand with attempting to do this again. I'm thinking if we had more people, the fight would go better. If you could give me a hand give a tell in game if I'm on, or leave a reply. Thank you for your time, and sorry again to Ringoko, Desiree, Panacea, Scarey and Legendofzion.

Company | Profile
Amazon is a cloud computing giant and the largest American e-commerce company. It was founded in 1994 by Jeff Bezos.
Originally known for selling books through its website (and later digital versions via its Kindle e-reader), Amazon has built up a customer service, inventory, and shipping empire that allows the site to offer everything from clothes to lawn furniture to janitorial supplies. It also sells digital content like movies, music, and apps. Its Amazon Web Services arm is a multi-billion-dollar provider of cloud-based services for millions of business customers around the world, including government agencies and universities. And it's a major player in consumer electronics—not only by offering devices such as Fire tablets and TV boxes but also via its Alexa AI assistant service, which made news at the CES 2017 gadget show by being built into everything from LG refrigerators to Ford cars.
Amazon is even a Hollywood player, taking home two awards at the 2017 Golden Globes. Yet the basics of Bezos's business philosophy—focusing on long-term customer loyalty over short-term profits and never-ending expansion into new businesses—have been surprisingly consistent over the years. And Amazon's obsession with efficiency explains why it's now delivering products in just two hours via its Prime Now service, and why it hopes to be among the first e-commerce companies to deploy its own fleet of drones with Amazon Prime Air, a future fleet of autonomous aerial vehicles that will deliver packages under five pounds.
In an interesting twist, Amazon opened its first brick-and-mortar bookstore in Seattle and plans to open more in 2017. The stores are substantially different from the hundreds of traditional bookstores that it has obliterated since entering the market: The Amazon stores are largely showrooms and include machines that allow shoppers to read online user reviews for each item.
Top perks for employees:
Amazon is well known for not indulging in much in the way of flashy perks. But it does pay 95% of tuition for employees who takes classes in in-demand areas such as nursing and aircraft servicing—even if they have nothing to do with someone's responsibilities at Amazon.

Mobile Sidewalk Theater Connects City Dwellers [My Ideal City]
Stairway Cinema is a portable structure that can transforms stoops in to a pop up cinema.
Stairway Cinema is a mobile movie theater created for urban environments that converts an ordinary building stoops into a pop up cinema. Created by the experimental design collective, OH.NO.SUMO from Auckland, New Zealand, the micro-theater can be grafted onto the front steps of a building so that the stairs become seats for films and other visually-rich content.
Around the world, architects and planners are experimenting with temporary venues designed to be quickly deployed and assembled to host temporary events like performances and films. In addition to providing entertainment, Stairway Cinema doubles as a refuge from rain, and as a place for random social encounters between city dwellers.
PSFK.com reached out and spoke to Patrick Loo of the experimental design collective Oh.No.Sumo to get his thoughts on how pop up cultures can impact urban environments:
Pop-up projects offer the potential to engage with complex ideas quickly and often cheaply, allowing for rapid developments in thinking and increasingly efficient feedback loops, as well as providing testing grounds for experimental ideas.
Another good example of pop-up culture is Hot Tub Cinema which is a unique event which sets up inflatable hot tubs on London rooftops and screens films for patrons. The event is staged on regularly on different rooftops, and draws a loyal crowd of viewers. In a similar vein, the Bike-In-Theater reinvents the classic drive-in theater by inviting guests arrive with and ride their bikes in the venue.
These pop up culture experiences connect with an ever-changing audience, while highlighting locally sourced content and bringing cultural enrichment into people's lives.
Q. What cultural experience would you like to see pop up temporarily in your city?
Submit your answer now at the MyIdealCity site – or tweet your suggestion using #MyIdealCity and #
Over the next 6 months, PSFK and a team of experts imaging the future of a city will be asking you what you envision as 'My Ideal City'. Tweet us your ideas using the hashtag of the week and view all the submissions at the MyIdealCity site.

5 Tips for the BEST Last-Minute Halloween Party
If Halloween snuck up once again on you this year (like it did to me) you have no need to panic. I love throwing a Halloween party, but I am seriously the worst planner. Sound like you? If so, I have five tips to throw the best Halloween party without pre-planning weeks in advance.
1. Food: Don't make everything homemade…this is IMPORTANT! I love making things from scratch for my own bragging rights, but you can make delicious food without taking hours and hours to do so. This Real Simple page features 13 easy Halloween party recipes that will be sure to make your guests love you.
2. Decorations: The very best part about late planning is that most Halloween decorations are now on major sale. Head over to Target or your favorite store and stock up on Halloween decoration essentials. Make sure your house is decked out with things like spider webs to create the Halloween mood. Also, to set the mood play some creepy music or have classic Halloween movies playing on your TV!
3. DIY Costume: If you don't want to go as detailed as some DIY costumes, I have an even easier route. Dress up like something as easy as a cat. I promise you can find everything you need in your own closet. Throw on some black skinny jeans, a black shirt, black heels or boots and some cat ears. This is a cute, but super easy costume.
4. Drinks: You need good drinks for a good Halloween party. This Food Network webpage features tons of "creepy cocktails" and non-alcoholic Halloween beverages as well.
5. Make it SIMPLE: This is my last, but most important piece of advice. You need to make sure you simplify things. The best Halloween parties I have attended are not incredibly detailed, just make sure you have great food, good drinks, some themed music and some creepy decor and I promise you it will be perfect!

Fox's Starnes Baselessly Speculates That Churches Will Be Punished For Opposing Same-Sex Marriage
Blog ››› ››› LUKE BRINKER
Fox News Radio's Todd Starnes revived the right-wing canard that churches will face lawsuits and even criminal charges unless they begin performing same-sex wedding ceremonies.
In a July 15 column for FoxNews.com, Starnes continued his push to frame LGBT rights as a dire threat to religious liberty, quoting a pastor who warns that "it's just a matter of time" before it's a crime to preach that homosexuality is a sin and that marriage should only be between a man and a woman:
Joe Carr believes a day is fast approaching when pastors will be charged with hate crimes for preaching that homosexuality is a sin and churches will face lawsuits for refusing to host same-sex weddings.
"It's just a matter of time," said Carr, the pastor of Waynesville Missionary Baptist Church in Georgia. "What's happening in Europe - we're going to see happen here and we're going to see it happen sooner rather than later I'm afraid."
Starnes failed to cite a single example of a pastor facing sanctions for preaching against homosexuality in the U.S., nor could he come up with any instances in which a church incurred the wrath of the state for not performing same-sex wedding ceremonies.
Instead, his column included a laundry list of cases which ostensibly prove the danger LGBT rights pose to Americans' religious liberty:
American pastor Scott Lively was sued in a United States federal court for preaching in Uganda that homosexuality is a sin. Sexual Minorities Uganda accused him of inciting the persecution of homosexuals during a 2009 mission trip to the country.
And a number of Christian-owned companies have come under legal attack for their opposition to homosexuality.
Hands On Originals, a Lexington, Ken. t-shirt company, was investigated by the city's Human Rights Commission after they refused to print shirts for a local gay rights group.
The state of Washington is suing a small flower shop after the owner declined to provide flowers for a gay wedding.
Arlene's Flowers in Richland, Wash., is facing thousands of dollars in fines and penalties for allegedly violating the state's Consumer Protection Act.
For a column titled "Churches Fear Lawsuits over Gay Weddings" these are some curious examples to cite. None of them have anything whatsoever to do same-sex marriage laws and their consequences for churches.
Starnes' claim that Lively was sued merely for "preaching ... that homosexuality is a sin" is a blatant falsehood. Lively was an enthusiastic backer of proposed legislation that would have made homosexuality punishable by death in Uganda.
The Kentucky investigation, meanwhile, stemmed from an apparent violation of a non-discrimination law - not a marriage law. It's a similar story to the Arlene's Flowers case in Washington state. The state's Consumer Protection Act prohibits businesses from discriminating against consumers based on sexual orientation, so the refusal to provide flowers to a same-sex couple would still have constituted illegal discrimination even if Washington did not have marriage equality.
In reality, marriage equality laws are about extending the full rights of civil marriage to same-sex couples - something entirely different from religious marriage ceremonies. It's a distinction that seems entirely lost on one of Fox's most rabid homophobes.

Connecticut Wrongful Termination Laws
Have you recently lost your job? If so, you might be wondering whether you have grounds for a wrongful termination lawsuit. In Connecticut, as in other states, employees work at will. This means an employee can generally be fired at any time and for any reason, or for no reason at all.
But there are some exceptions to the at-will rule. If your Connecticut employer fires you for discriminatory reasons, in violation of an employment contract, or in retaliation for exercising your rights, for example, you may have a legal claim against your employer for wrongful termination.
Every state's laws on wrongful termination are different. This article covers some of the common legal grounds you might have for suing your employer in Connecticut for wrongful termination. But it's not a comprehensive list of Connecticut employment rights, which can change as courts issue new rulings and legislators pass or modify laws. To find out the full extent of your claims, speak to an experienced Connecticut employment lawyer. To learn more about Connecticut employment law, contact the Connecticut Department of Labor.
Discriminatory Firing
Under federal law, it is illegal for an employer to fire an employee based on a protected characteristic. Federal law prohibits employers from firing employees based on race, color, national origin, sex, pregnancy, religion, age (if the employee is at least 40), disability, citizenship status, or genetic information. However, only employers of a certain size must comply with these laws. For most types of discrimination, the law applies to employers with 15 or more employees. However, the prohibition on age discrimination applies to employers with 20 or more employees, while the prohibition on citizenship discrimination applies to employers with four or more employees.
Connecticut law prohibits discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age (any age), ancestry, disability (including present or past physical, mental, intellectual, or learning disability), marital status, gender identity or expression, genetic information, sexual orientation, or HIV/AIDS. In Connecticut, employers must comply with these laws if they have at least three employees.
These laws also make it illegal for an employer to retaliate against you for asserting your rights. For example, if you complain to your company's HR department that you believe you were passed over for promotion because of your age, your employer may not discipline or fire you for your complaint. Likewise, your employer cannot fire you for participating in an investigation of a discrimination complaint (no matter who made the complaint), testifying in court, or making other efforts to stop discriminatory practices.
Before filing a discrimination or retaliation lawsuit, you must file a complaint with the appropriate government agency. In Connecticut, state discrimination laws are enforced by the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities. Often times, state fair employment practices agencies will record your complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the agency that enforces federal antidiscrimination laws. However, you should check to make sure. If not, you may also have to file a complaint with the EEOC; you can find contact information for the nearest office at the EEOC's Field Offices page.
Breach of Contract
If you have an employment contract promising you job security, you may not be an at-will employee. In Connecticut, an employment contract may be written, oral, or implied. In the first two types of contracts, your employer makes oral or written promises not to fire you for a certain period of time without good cause. In an implied contract, your employer doesn't make express promises, but acts in a way that creates a reasonable expectation that you would continue to be employed. For example, if your employee handbook states that employees will be fired only for good cause, that may create an implied contract. If your employer fires you without good cause, you have a legal claim for breach of contract.
Wage and Hour Issues
In Connecticut, employees have the right to minimum wage of $9.15 per hour. Employees also have the right to overtime pay when they work more than 40 hours in a workweek. And, employees who work in restaurants (including those in hotels) must receive overtime for all hours worked on a seventh consecutive day. Employees in Connecticut who work 7.5 or more consecutive hours are entitled to a 30-minute unpaid meal break. The meal break must be scheduled after the first two hours of work and before the last two hours of work. It is illegal for employers in Connecticut to fire employees for asserting their wage and hour rights before the state's wage board.
Time Off Work
State and federal laws give employees the right to take time off work for certain civic obligations and personal responsibilities. Employers may not discipline or fire workers for exercising these rights. In Connecticut, these rights include:
- Military leave. Under federal law, employees have the right to take up to five years of leave to serve in the military, with the right to be reinstated when they return to work. (This law also prohibits discrimination against employees based on their military service, protects employees from discharge without good cause for up to one year after they return from military duty, and provides other protections; see Nolo's article Taking Military Leave for more information.) Connecticut law extends these rights to members of the National Guard who are called to service by the governor. Connecticut law also gives employees who are members of the state's armed forces the right to take time off to perform ordered military duty, including meetings or drills, that take place during regular work hours, without loss or reduction of vacation or holiday benefits.
- Jury duty. Full-time employees are entitled to earn their regular wages for their first five days of jury service. Employers who fire or penalize an employee for jury service are subject to criminal penalties and special damages in a wrongful termination lawsuit.
- Family and medical leave. Connecticut employees are protected by the federal Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). The FMLA requires employers with 50 or more employees to provide eligible employees with up to 12 weeks off, unpaid, every year for the following purposes: to receive treatment for and recuperate from a serious health condition, to care for a family member with a serious health condition, to care for a new child, or to handle certain practical matters arising out of a family member's military service. Employees can take up to 26 weeks off in a single year to care for a family member who is seriously injured while serving in the military. Employees who take FMLA leave must be reinstated to the same position they previously held once their leave is over. Connecticut also has its own family and medical leave law that applies to employers with 75 or more employees. Under Connecticut's law, eligible employees may take up to 16 weeks off in a two-year period for their own serious health conditions, to care for a family member with a serious health condition, or to bond with a child. Connecticut's law covers the same family members covered by the FMLA, as well as parents-in-law, partners in a civil union, and children of a partner in a civil union. Connecticut's laws also provide time off for other purposes, including pregnancy disability leave and leave to care for a family member who is seriously injured while on active military duty. For more information, see Nolo's article Family and Medical Leave in Connecticut.
- Sick leave. Connecticut has a paid sick leave law, which provides service employees with the right to up to five days of paid time off per year. The law applies to employers with 50 or more employees.
Other State Claims
- Workers' compensation. Employers may not retaliate against employees for filing workers' compensation claims or otherwise exercising their rights under workers' comp laws.
- Work safety. Employers may not discipline or fire employees for reporting workplace safety violations or cooperating in an investigation into workplace safety violations.
- First amendment. Employees have the right to engage in free speech without fear of reprisal from their employers, unless the speech substantially interferes
- Whistleblowing. Employers cannot fire, discipline, or take other negative action against employees who report suspected illegal activity by their employers, or for participating in an investigation or legal proceeding connected to such illegal activity.
What to Do Next
If you believe you were wrongfully terminated, you should speak to a Connecticut employment lawyer right away. A lawyer can evaluate your claims and walk you through your options, whether it be negotiating a settlement, filing an administrative claim, or moving forward with a lawsuit. A lawyer can also inform you of other state or local claims that you may have in addition to those listed above.

text: HOW TO TEST RELIGIOUS TEACHERSIn Matthew 7:15—18 Jesus gave this important teaching, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. You shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit." This scripture suggests the theme to be pursued in this message. I want to discuss with you the subject, "How To Tett Religious Teachers". Jesus said in the plainest terms, "Beware of false prophets." The apostle Peter saw fit to deliver a similar warning in 2 Peter 2:1, "But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction." The apostle John called upon Christians to carefully test all religious teachers in I John 4:1, "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world." Since Jesus warned us about false prophets, it is logical to ask first, "What is a false prophet7 It also raises the question, "Do we still have prophets in the church today? A false prophet was a teacher or preacher who acted the part of a divinely inspired messenger of God but uttered falsehoods. For personal advantage of some kind, he refused to faithfully communicate God;s word to man. The word prophet means one who announces or brings a message from God. While the prediction of future events was a definite part of their work, their chief function was to serve as religious and moral teachers of their own day and time. Most of their teaching was aimed at calling God's people back to obedience and faithfulness. The prophets received supernatural revelations from God by means of visions, open calls by a voice, dreams, and silent inspiration in which the Holy Spirit worked silently upon the thought processes. Tempted by the love of money, the love of the world, and worldly power, some of these prophets became unfaithful to God. When this happened they would not faithfully communicate God's message, and this made them false prophets. In Bible times, the human race had a difficult time distinguishing a true prophet from a false prophet. This was due to the fact that most any good thing can be counterfeited. There are no prophets in the church today because God no longer reveals divine truth to mankind. All inspired truth from God is now complete and has been committed to writing in the sixty six books of the Bible. The office of prophet ceased to exist, along with all other miraculous gifts, with the close of the first century A.D. Any person who claims to be an inspired prophet today is a false prophet because supernatural messages from God no longer take place. There are no prophets in the church today, however the work of ancient prophets is now carried on by teachers and preachers of the Bible. Consequently, the human race is having the same problem today with preachers that the ancient world had with prophets. it isn't always easy to distinguish a true Bible teacher from a false Bible teacher, but Jesus has revealed an infallible method to identify a false Bible teacher. Jesus revealed that we can detect a false Bible teacher by using the fruit test. The Lord said, "Ye shall know them by their fruits. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit"(Matthew 7:16). When Jesus classified Bible teachers figuratively as good trees or bad trees, the reference was to their character. A Bible teacher with a good character will produce good in people's lives like a sound, healthy fruit tree will produce literal fruit. On the other hand, a Bible teacher with a defective character cannot produce holiness in people's lives, even as a diseased, unsound tree cannot produce what it was made to produce. A preacher with a good character cannot be a false Bible teacher, and a Bible teacher with a bad character cannot be a true Bible teacher. This is a rule given you by Christ; write it on the tablet of your mind and hide it in your heart. The key to the whole matter is character or integrity. Character is the secret that will eventually let the~t out of the bag on any Bible teacher or preacher. But how does one go about testing the character of a teacher of religion? It is a recognized fact that all Bible preachers teach some truth and accomplish some good. Furthermore, most Bible teachers in Christendom and the denominational world profess more or less to believe the Bible. Nevertheless, the acceptance of these fundamental truths can ~be very deceptive, and the fact that one preaches and teaches right out of the Bible does not necessarily mean that this person is a true Bible teacher. A false Bible teacher must teach some truth, otherwise he would have few followers. What we need to know are the marks of character that will show the person to be good or bad. In Matthew 7:15—20 Jesus revealed two decisive tests of character pertaining to a religious teacher. The first is the morality test. Jesus made this remark in Matthew 7:21— 23, "Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is inheaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity. This is passage speaks of Christians who were inspired prophets and others who had miraculous gifts, yet Jesus said He would reject then at the day of judgment because they had worked iniquity in their lives. His words, "I never knew you" mean He never recognized or endorsed them as being true Christians. In their every day lives they were not good, moral, and upright. Morality, chastity, and uprightness are essential elements in Christian morality. A Bible teacher who is loose in personal morals cannot be a true Bible teacher. This is necessarily true from what Jesus said. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit. God is a holy and moral Being, and a Bible teacher cannot sincerely serve the holy God of the Bible when his own personal morality is consistently defective. Any religious teacher who will not practice what he preaches is insincere and lacks personal integrity. If a Bible teacher has shown himself to be weak in morals, this disqualifies him to teach others. Even if he would teach correctly the truth which he does not practice, it would not change the picture. A preacher who will not practice what he preaches is dangerous, insincere, and a very poor religious counselor. It can be safely concluded that his heart is not in his work. This is not to say that a Bible teacher is above sin and never commits it. No one is sinlessly perfect. David was one of the great religious teachers in Bible times, but he commItted the sin of adultry. However, he was filled with shame and remorse, repented of the sin, and corrected it.never read of him committing that sin again. Bible teachers can and do sin, but if honest and sincere, they will repent and receive God's forgiveness. On the other hand, if the preacher's life continues to be sub—standard and sub—Christian, he cannot be a true Bible teacher. Another important test of a Bible teacher's character, as revealed by Jesus, is the doctrine test. This is expressed in Matthew 7:24—27, "Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, who built his house upon a rock: and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: and the rain descended, and the floods caine, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fells and great was the fall of it." Jesus stated that a person who hears His teachings and obeys them is a wise man, but one who hears His teachings and does not do them is a foolish man." The meaning is that the only way a person live a life acceptable to God and be saved is by hearing the true teachings of Jesus and practicing them in his life. However religious the life may be, if it is not founded on the true teachings of Christ, God will not accept that person. Since we must hear the teachings of Christ, understand them, and obey them, a true Bible teacher will teach strictly what the New Testament says and not something else. We are saved by the true teachings of the New Testament and not church manuals, human creeds, and church traditions. To hear, believe, and obey religious teachings which disagree with New Testament teachings is to build your house on the sand. The Lord's teaching about a wise man building his house on a rock and a foolish man building his house on the sand is given in the context of warning people to "beware of false teachers." If you build your religious life on the religious teachings of a false teacher, you will not pass the judgment. People seldom rise above their teachers in knowledge and understanding. A true Bible teacher will not knowingly teach contrary to New Testament doctrine. This is perhaps the most important test of a true gospel preacher. This is a rule which must be remembered and never forgotten. A true Bible teacher will not teach doctrinal error. But what if the preacher is teaching error and doesn't know it? Ignaance is no excuse for a gospel preacher; it is his responsibility to know the truth. God calls no man to preach error. If he is uninformed, he has neglected to study. He is obligated to come to a knowledge of the truth which God has revealed about conversion, worship, and Christian living. There is absolutely no excuse for a preacher to be in error on matters that pertain to eternal salvation. I am not speaking of difficult subjects hard to be understood in the Bible; I am speaking of basic, New Testament doctrines which can be understood. If indeed a preacher is sincerely in error in his teachings, when the truth is presented to him he can no longer claim sincerity, if he persists in his doctrinal unsoundness. Whatever desirable abilities and characteristics a preacher may have, he cannot be a true Bible teacher and be doctrinally unsound. When a preacher teaches contrary to clearly revealed New Testament truth, do not look at what some call charizma, his dynamic personality, his great speaking ability, his popularity, his great following, or his fund—raising ability. One can be possessed of all these desirable characteristics and still be a false Bible teacher. False teachers are deceiving millions of people today with these special talents. Remember the words of Jesus, "Beware of false prophets.."Although the religious teacher may be of the highest moral standards, a good family man, and a respected citizen in the community, if he is doctrinally unsound, he cannot be a true Bible teacher. For the sake of your soul and your eternal salvation, you must accept this rule by faith and walk by faith in this matter of identifying false religious teachers. Moral character will not atone for erroneous religious teachers. For example,if if a teacher claims that the Bible does not condemn sex before marriage, extra—marital relations, and homosexuality, this man is a false teacher whether or not he personally practices these vices. Moreover, if a religious teacher refuses to teach faithfully what the New Testament says about the plan of salvation, the punishment of hell, the divinity of Christ, the inspiration of the Bible, and scriptural worship, then that person is a false religious teacher. All who listen to them are building their houses on the sand, and Jesus said such a life will not pass the judgment. If we will use the morality test and the doctrinal soundness test, we will not be in danger of being deceived by false religious teachers. But people who think that one preacher is as good as another, who thinks one church is as good as another church, who blindly accept the religion of their parents, people who hold rigidly to the traditions of their ancestors, these people are going to be deceived by religious teachers. God will hold you responsible for any religious deception you fall into. In conclusion, Jesus gave us this final warning on the subject of false religious teachers: Enter in at the strait gatei for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it"(Matthew7:l3—l4). Jesus meant that there are so many deceptive religious doctrines in the world it is extremely hard to find the right and true religion. The narrow gate in the passage refers to the true teachings of Christ on conversion, and the narrow way represents the true teachings of Jesus on the subject of Christian living. You must start according to His teachings, and you must live your entire life according to His teachings. You must become a christian exactly as Jesus taught, and you must live your life as Jesus taught. False teachers have always used the deceptive argument that we should be broadminded and not judge other preachers, churches, and religions. One of the most dangerous of all false religious teachings in the world is that it doesn't make any difference what you believe as long as you are sincere. But Jesus didn't leave any room for broadmindedness when he said, "Enter in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction." Every accountable person has but two choices: the broad way which leads to destruction or the narrow way which leads to eternal life. There are but two ways a human being can travel, and that is as broadminded as any one dare to be. May God help you to find the narrow gate by which you become a Christian and enter into God's spiritual family the church. After one becomes a Christian, he must live a faithful Christian life which Jesus called the narrow way which leads to life.—4—

The US Thanksgiving holiday will be celebrated this year with retailers opening on Thanksgiving and people leaving their homes to shop instead of sharing their day with loved ones.
Thanksgiving I still believe, is about giving, not getting.
Thanksgiving used to be a holiday where several generations of family and friends would be seated around a large dinner table listening as Grandfather said grace, then watching as Dad carved the turkey and Mom brought out the pies.
The kids were sitting quietly at a separate table. It is an image captured in a Norman Rockwell painting.
It is far removed from reality for many today.

The title song to the Frampton Brothers new CD may be the best anti-success ode since the Presidents of the United States of America's "We're Not Gonna Make It." Like that song, "File Under F (for Failure)" has a self-lacerating sense of humor and a really good hook. The Brothers, who are as closely related as the Ramones were—i.e., not at all—namecheck the Kinks as inspiration, and there's a loopy/angry Ramones-Kinks feel to most the album. The band buzzsaws through their songs with high energy and singer-songwriter Ed Masley has a sense of humor reminiscent of Ray Davies. Finally, though, their closest musical kin may be another obscure alternative outfit—South Carolina heroin punks, Honeywagon—who also play power pop with a punk edge.
Tunes such as "Fucked" and "Shit-Colored Glasses" show the Brothers at their most pissed-off, but generally the lyrics are clever, mordant and sometimes very funny. Take "Dressing Room," for instance, about the unexpected success of a bar band: "It's everything you wanted / Free beer and little slabs of meat / Just like Van Halen / Your childhood fantasy's complete." As that song suggests, much of the material here focuses on the ups and downs of life as an indie rocker. There is the girl in "She's Reading All the Wrong Fanzines," who enthusiastically begins her time as a scenester by wearing the coolest T-shirt she'd ever seen, but who comes to realize that "you're only as cool as your latest style." And the band described in "The Beginning of the End of the Fun Years," which drives around in a dilapidated van, breaks up, then gets together again, sounds a lot like the Frampton Brothers.
Frampton Brothers
File Under F (for Failure)
(for Failure)
Nearly all the songs are kicked along at a kinetic pace by the rhythm section of Ray Vasko and Bob Hoag. The fuzz box is always in the "on" position, and lead guitarist Sean Lally, who is technically more adept than most punk guitarists, has a decided impact on the record. There are lots of fills, almost every song has its solo, and in the two mock-metal numbers—"The Devil (or Anyone Else Who's Better Than You)" and "Evil Twin"—it's clear that if the Brothers are, indeed, doomed to mainstream failure, they can always get gigs as a Black Sabbath cover band.
Chances are, File Under F (for Failure), put out by Albany's Cacophone Records, won't be available at your local chain, so it's probably best to head first to their website, www.cacophone.com. By turns ironic, inflammatory, and deranged, the album offers yet more proof that the good stuff often isn't easy to find.

Firefighters Practice Their Skills in Vacant Buildings
Richland and Kennewick firefighters team up for a community training session.
Richland Fire Captain Randy Aust gets permission to train in vacant buildings and creates a scenario for firefighters to work on their skills.
Aust said they work with the Kennewick Fire Department on a daily basis so they invited them to the drill.
Crews trained at a warehouse off Columbia Center Boulevard.
For this scenario crews are dispatched to a commercial structure fire.
They go inside, knock down the fire and ask for ventilation.
Crews simulated cutting a hole in the roof. One of the firefighters in the scenario becomes injured and the crew has to safely get him off the roof.
Captain Aust said they practice using a mixture of basic and complicated skills.
He says they try and do these drill every couple of months.

Diversity and Inclusion
UAA Diversity and Inclusion Team Overview
UAA's mission is to shape, advance, and steward a world-class undergraduate academic experience for students at the University of Washington. We deepen and enrich the learning experience for all undergraduates, recognizing and supporting the unique learning path of each individual student and the commitment of each academic program to excellence in teaching and learning.
The UAA Diversity and Inclusion Team brings together representatives from across UAA to implement activities that guide UAA towards a fully engaged, inclusive community culture. The team's focus is critical to UAA's mission. Students learn better in a diverse, supportive environment—it is part of what makes a world-class undergraduate academic experience. Staff are also more productive and innovative when our programs, processes, and community culture values and respects differences. These qualities in turn help us to deepen and enrich the learning experience for all undergraduates.
This year the team will identify commonalities between UAA programs which relate to diversity and inclusion, and lead UAA in accomplishing 1-3 related goals. The UAA Diversity and Inclusion Team will (1) determine the metrics and process to assess UAA progress on established goals; and (2) develop, sponsor, and/or disseminate resources to UAA that support diversity and inclusion goals. With the support of the dean, directors, and UAA staff, the team will incorporate team recommendations into UAA's work processes. Additionally, the team will serve in an advisory capacity to the Dean of UAA on select matters relating to inclusion and community in UAA.
Membership Details and Expectations
The team membership should reflect all of UAA. Team membership is expected to include staff from across UAA, representing the broad array of programs within our unit.
Members are expected to:
- attend monthly, 1.5 hour meetings,
- complete some work outside of the meetings, and
- update their unit/program on the team's progress, activities, and needs.
Meetings are scheduled to best accommodate team members when possible.
Get involved
We encourage membership from UAA staff who want to deliberately reflect on UAA programs and processes, and lead UAA toward a more inclusive and engaged community. Additionally, members must anticipate becoming actively engaged members of the team (i.e. must be able to attend meetings, have ability to perform some work outside of committee meetings).
Ideal members will possess:
- commitment to an engaged and inclusive UAA community;
- ability to participate as an actively engaged member of the team (e.g. attend meetings, perform some outside work);
- potential for leadership in UAA relating to diversity and inclusion; and
- ability to envision and support new opportunities and positive change within UAA.
If you are interested in learning more or joining the UAA Diversity and Inclusion Team, please contact Anne Browning (email@example.com, 221-0748) or Jodene Davis (email@example.com, 685-5123).
If you have any questions about the UAA Diversity and Inclusion Team, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

Pandas Are Our Friends
Timothy Lavin, a writer for Bloomberg, is suggesting that we don't need Pandas in the world because they serve no purpose.
To that, I say, "Shut up." (I'm clearly using my big girl words.)
www.gettyimages.com Getty Images
Panda bears help keep forests from being overgrown so other animals, that I'm sure Lavin would be just fine with getting rid of, can live.
Since their habitat is slowly going away anyway, you should be happy to know that they will probably die off anyway.
Pandas bring people joy. That's enough reason to keep them in my book. You, Mr Lavin, bring no one joy. Don't be a cranky old man.

UPDATE: "COPS" Crew Member Dies In Omaha Shootout
Omaha Police Chief Todd Schmaderer has identified the armed robbery suspect and the crew member of the COPS TV show who were killed in an officer involved shooting Tuesday night at the Wendy's near 43rd and Dodge.
Schmaderer says three witnesses and the three officers who entered the restaurant thought Cortez Washington's Airsoft handgun was a real gun. Schmaderer believes the three officers involved acted properly and had no choice but to take the action that they did.
He says when the officers entered the Wendy's, Washington pointed the gun at two of the officers and fired it twice. Schmaderer says Detective Darren Cunningham and officers Brooks Riley and Jason Wilhelm returned fire and struck Washington several times.
He was able to flee the restaurant and collapsed outside. One of the rounds also struck 38 year old Brice Dion, a sound technician for "COPS." He collapsed just inside the doorway.
Schmaderer says video captured by the cameraman of "COPS" shows the chaotic situation in the restaurant. That video will be presented as evidence to a grand jury. All three officers are on paid administrative leave.
