One of many reasons that we home school.

Anyone who thinks that this event and recent similar ones won't result in some added gun restrictions is whistling past the graveyard. Rather than denial, I think the most constructive things we could be doing is trying to find an approach we can advocate that may help mitigate future mass shootings, but would not unduly penalize gun owners. I think that something is an outright ban on possession of high cap magazines. To me they serve no useful purpose in civilian hands and prohibiting them would not unduly infringe on the Second Amendment. i realize I may be the only person on the forum who feels this way, but so be it.

I expect Obama to try to push an AWB, and have it fail in congress. Then he will blame the Republicans for partisan gridlock and say we can't wait for them to get their act together, we must act now. He will issue an executive order for some sort of new restrictions, and we will see how far we have strayed from the constitution. Will his illegal power grab go unchecked, or will our "representatives" finaly stand up and say enough? Or will the SCOTUS finaly slap him down and remind him about separation of power?
While it may seem like these things are happening all the time, if you consider the size of our population, and the deteriorating state of the societies mental health, these incidents really are pretty rare. They just get massive media coverage when they do happen, which then draws more crazies to follow their lead to gain notoriety.
When the anti's argue that armed citizens will never actually stop a psycho, we should look to Isreal and their population and schools.
Walk softly ...
It does sound like terrorism, and I've wondered for sometime why they haven't attacked more of our "soft targets" like schools, theaters, and shopping malls. They're (Radical Islamists) streaming across our southern border in largely unreported numbers, and they aren't coming to America to pick oranges. We must secure our borders, and our soft targets before more of this happens. God bless the little children and all the innocents caught up in this senseless violence.

This is incredibly sad. I can't imagine what those families are going through right now. There is no way to make sense of something like this.
"Hell is truth seen too late."
My prayers go out to those that have lost loved ones. I hope that they do not have a rash response like more extreme gun control.
I think that we should respond on the offensive by allowing firearms in those areas that are now hazard free for senseless killers like Mr Lanza.
Yoda, I am, yes.
Far better, IMO, to start with having a perimeter, hardening that perimeter, starting with having decent doors and LOCKING them. Far too many schools have doors essentially "swinging in the breeze," allowing just anyone to walk right in. And there are essentially no "safe" areas in schools, eliminating any effective retreat option for those caught inside. And there are no armed folk inside most schools, despite the administration/faculty having the responsibility over the lives of the children all day long. The Beslan attack hasn't taught many in the USA the simple reality, here. Attacking mere tools won't cure any of what makes such places "fishbowls" for anyone with the desire to lash out.

Some "expert" on CNN talking about how to determine early warning signs of lunatics like this just rattled off "being at a shooting range" along with all sorts of other alarming behaviors as one of the signs. Oy vey. Some people are just programmed, apparently. Its too bad they have a public platform. crazy, is crazy, can we stop ignoring these folks now and try to get them some help?

Please, for five minutes, let both sides quit standing in the blood of the victims... And quit proselytizing over how we should stop this madness, whether it be with more regulation or less....
And just think about, pray for (if you're so inclined), the victims.
We can engage our battle later...
Let us be the better people here, and have respect and reverence for the victims.
It could be worse!

I'm sure you've heard that Facebook got themselves into a little hot water recently. Apparently it was manipulating newsfeeds of a pool of users, showing them friends' posts that contained "positive" buzzwords, and then seeing how that pool of users was affected based on their subsequent status updates & posts. It was an unethical psychological experiment on unaware subjects.
Yet I'm intrigued as to if they actually found out anything more than what they're sharing (which is it had "minimal" effects).
Because I, for one, really am so happy and excited for all my friends who are getting married and having babies. Truthfully, I am! (I promise!!)
And yet I'm exhausted.
From following all the relationship status updates, looking at photos, reading sweet posts to each other, clicking through links to their registries, to their Huffington Post articles about how marriage is so awesome, lists on how to be a better wife, or comparing different breast pumps.
NO ACTUAL, PHYSICAL INTERACTION WHATSOEVER ON MY PART. I have literally attended five weddings in my life and only held one baby in the last three years.
So why, at 26, do I feel like I'm falling behind?
I consider myself to be a successful person thus far. I have two college degrees. I lived in Europe for four months. I enjoy my job waiting tables (seriously!), I pay my bills without much hassle and/or worry, and I am so unbelievably grateful for the professional musical theatre opportunities I have already experienced and that I have coming up. I personally am not ready to trade or compromise where I am in life for a family right now.
Yet I bawled like a baby reading this birth story on Carrots N Cake. There's nothing sad or even out of the ordinary about it, but just the beautiful simplicity of her story was so moving; how she was so excited to meet the little guy who'd been growing inside her for nine months.
And that's what gets me. You grow a PERSON for NINE MONTHS inSIDE of you, and yet you don't know anything about them. A WHOLE HUMAN BEING. That you are in charge of 100%. You will shape them, and help them create their morals, their memories, their whole lives. You get to watch them grow up and have personalities and experiences and skinned knees and pride in their every accomplishment. And that moment of finally getting to meet them must be one of the most amazing things a woman can experience.
And I know, at 26, that it's perfectly natural to feel that way about babies because my uterus is totally like "GIRL. Get it toGETHER. You need a BABY all up inside you YESTERDAY!"
But then, it all comes back to this question: how much of that feeling is actually natural, and how much of it is perpetuated by Facebook?
I was talking with the roomie about this a while ago, about how we feel outside pressure that marriage and a family are what we are expected to strive for. How those are the Ultimate Goal. The Facebook Ideal. As soon as we obtain a handsome husband, pop out an adorable tiny human, and have a picturesque, matching sweater Christmas Card (/Facebook Profile Pic!), we've succeeded at all things. But is that it?
And yes, I'm sure people had those feelings in the pre-Facebook days. But I strongly believe that Facebook helps to sustain those feelings, and magnifies them tenfold. Same with Twitter! And Instagram! And blogs! And Pinterest! (Let's be honest, what girl *doesn't* have a wedding Pinterest board?)
I admit, I find myself feeling down about it too often; it honestly makes me feel like I'm behind. But when I really sit and think about it though, I am NOT sad to be single. I have even done the online dating thing, and have met & dated enough guys to realize it's just not worth settling for someone who doesn't fit or who's too low to round up to my ONE. (<–Dan Savage video link!)
(Also his Price of Admission video is great, too, on a similar "there is no The One" idea…and on we go…)
Since Fall 2006, I have always been either:
-In a relationship
-Rebounding from a relationship
-Pursuing someone to date
-In an unhealthy FWB situation with whom I usually wanted to be dating…awkward.
September 2013-March 2014, I didn't go on any dates. Totally abstinent. And it surprised me how FREEING it was.
My Friday nights? I could go out with friends OR watch Netflix until 2am…I didn't have to check in with anyone. That 3 mile run? I started doing it for ME, not because I wanted to look better naked for someone else. That super cute dress I bought? I didn't need anyone to tell me I looked good in it, because I felt great in it. That third beer and 5th Christmas cookie? Fuck off, I do what I want!
I, all of a sudden, was not defining myself by my relationships. I was just defining myself, and I was allowing myself to just BE. Happy. Sad. Excited. Loud. Joyful. Angry. And I felt glorious.
While the "I don't need anyone else" realization happened years ago (another story), this was the first time I'd truly been alone in seven years. And this is not to discredit or put down any kind of relationship I have ever had; I am still on good terms with many of them, close friends with a few, and learned a lot from the ones who are no longer a part of my life. But having a chance to sit back and be alone, I saw that I was so often getting completely sucked into that other person; my moods mirrored theirs, I was so affected by the little things, and I would start to question everything I said or did. I would start to question myself. And it would escalate (comedically) quickly.
"Did I say the wrong thing? Does he think I'm mad? Is he mad?? Why isn't he responding immediately to my text???"
"Is he judging me for eating that second cookie? What if he feels my pudgy stomach during sex, and remembers that second cookie, and judges me for it THEN, when I'm already naked and can't hide it?? Does he even find me sexually attractive???"
"Will he hate me if I don't go out with him and his friends? Will he think I'm lazy if I don't feel like putting on a bra & make-up, and just want to watch Netflix by myself tonight? Can I have a bottle of wine?? Will he think I'm a lazy alcoholic if I tell him I'm drinking a bottle of wine by myself tonight while I sit around and watch Netflix???
"I probably shouldn't have even told him I mentioned our date to my parents…now he thinks that I think he's The One…now he's gonna go running for the hills just like all the rest of them…"
THOSE ARE ALL SUCH STUPID THINGS THAT I NEVER WORRY ABOUT WHEN I'M SINGLE. I rarely think those things about my friends. So why should I worry about them when I'm in a relationship??
Yet I have absolutely thought all of these sorts of thoughts with EVERY.SINGLE.GUY. These thoughts are all red flags that I often overlook and suppress until there's a sea of red and I'm forced to come to terms with the fact that he is, in fact, not someone I'd want to spend the rest of my life with. Normally that realization happens after a box of tissues and a lot of ice cream, as I've already been dumped by him, usually because I held out for waaaaay too long, hoping that it would all work out.
So why do I get into the habit of forcing something that obviously isn't working? I really believe it all comes back to the Facebook Ideal. I start to think that maybe this is it for me; maybe this guy is the guy I should end up with, that I should settle for. The idea that I should want, that I should need, that perfect Facebook Profile Picture with a Stud Muffin, a Big-Ass Diamond Ring, and a Fucking Adorable Tiny Version of the Two of Us (and maybe even A Dog) to feel good about where I am in my life. Because Facebook shows me that marriage and relationships are easy and fun and perfect and the ultimate WIN. That that's what I should be striving for. That, yes, I am successful if I land a great role in a dream show, but I am MORE successful (& worthy of a $20,000 celebration) if I'm walking down the aisle in a white (ha!) gown.
I want that. Someday. I know so many great people (younger, older, my age) in truly happy marriages & relationships, some with beautiful children, being kickass parents & partners, WHO MAKE EACH OTHER BETTER PEOPLE, and they're still doing what they love. Their relationships are strong, but hard work, and while everyone hits rocks occasionally, they deal with the rocks and keep on sailing. That's love, and it's just not worth settling for anything less than that.
Am I ready for a serious relationship with someone that I could eventually have that with? I think so. And I am so excited to someday decide to spend the rest of my life with someone, and to someday hold MY adorably tiny human for the first time. But I'm really gonna try to stop letting the outside world make me feel that I am not successful until I have those things. Because I AM happy AND fulfilled AND worthy AND successful. And it took me a long time to realize, accept, and relish that.
So now I'm off to spin class so I can enjoy checking out my own butt in the mirror later. 😉

Bohemian rhapsody

Blooming marvellous ... La Boheme the opera.
Photo: Steven Siewert
Simon Phillips says he had two choices when the La Boheme gig landed in his lap: go traditional or risk the ire of purists and go trashy modern.

When: Until October 29

As director Simon Phillips tells it, he had two choices when the La Boheme gig landed in his lap: go traditional and set the opera in the late 1800s, or risk the ire of purists and go trashy modern.
Phillips is a director renowned for taking the odd risk. It usually pays off with glowing reviews - he was the man behind the revered 2003 Opera Australia production of Lulu.
No surprises for guessing which road he took in choosing a setting for Puccini's beloved tale of passion among the penniless.
The freezing garret of boho blokes Rodolfo and Marcello is now a grotty share flat with dirty dishes overflowing in the sink. A glimpse of Act III reveals a stage littered with wheelie bins and an overflowing industrial skip, along with a tortured Rodolfo singing with a takeaway coffee in his hand.
Perhaps the most alarming moment for the purists comes at the end, when the consumptive Mimi draws her final breath while lying in a beanbag.
"You can't get past the fact that when Mimi enters in Act IV, she has to recline on something in which she's going to die," Phillips says.
"It's described literally in the libretto as a little bed, but that means that Mimi is actually lying down and that's a bit tricky for the singer. If you use a bed, you end up using a ridiculous amount of pillows to prop them up. The beanbag solves the problem because she can recline and sit up to exactly the right degree. I get two things out of the beanbag - it's also a fabulous prop in the scene before Mimi comes in, as the boys use it a lot."
Phillips's thoroughly modern take on Boheme has already played in Brisbane, where there were "no silly titters" from the audience over the beanbag scene. But does Phillips dread laughter over some of his other contemporary touches?
"It would be a shame if Boheme was laugh-free anyway," he says. "Laughter of recognition is at least laughter of recognition. It means that [audience] interest is sparked up and they're alert. But I'd find it distressing if it happened at a moment that was an absolute heartbreaker."
(Puccini suffered this ignominy when his Madame Butterfly opened in 1904 in Milan - after a mishap with Butterfly's costume the curtain came down to fits of laughter, prompting Puccini to hide in a dressing room afterwards.)
Phillips hopes his take on Boheme will help to break down preconceptions about the art form.
"Some people have a view of what Boheme should be like and they come and go, 'I like my Boheme to be in nice frockcoats,'" he says.
"But I think a young person who's coming to Boheme for the first time will definitely get something out of this version that's to the great advantage of the likelihood of them loving opera for a long time.
"Hopefully it's something they can connect with a bit more easily than a period production of it, but getting past the ticket price is more of a thing."
Phillips admired Baz Luhrmann's take on La Boheme, which was set in the 1950s and was so popular it played at the Opera House for three seasons during the 1990s, but he steered clear of re-casting Boheme in yet another nostalgic era.
Not so Simon Dow, artistic director of the West Australian Ballet, who is bringing his 1930s-style La Boheme to town. Many operas have been turned into ballets over the years - such as Carmen, The Magic Flute and Madame Butterfly - but Dow set out on the daunting task of being the first choreographer to transform La Boheme into a work for feet.
"You're changing something that people feel great reverence for in its current form," Dow says.
"I think what gave me courage was to think that Puccini himself took the story from another work - it had been a book, a series of stories at the time, that were very popular in France. And I thought, 'Well, if he can do it perhaps I can as well.'"
Dow was also attracted to Boheme's story, which differs greatly to the many supernatural and fantastical stories that populate the ballet repertoire.
"Most of the famous ballets are really not about human stories," says Dow, who premiered his version of another lustful and tragic tale - Dangerous Liaisons - in Perth in May.
But for Dow, who has even added a tango to his Boheme, settling on the 1930s was a practical decision.
"The late 1800s is a difficult period to realise in a realistic manner because the women particularly would have had great difficulty moving," he says. "They wore long, bulky dresses, so by bringing it to the 1930s there was a lot more freedom in the fashion."

Nice breakfast not clean next to front door
staff availability I booked a Business room but I found a room that needs a strong renewal in all parts: chair fabric were broken, bathroom more suitable for a service station instead of a 4 stars hotel (broken tile, very small basin, etc..). It is not enough a nespresso machine to justify prize and room typology
All details worked. Parking average.
Fantastic restaurant to the city square.
I liked being close to the cbd. The square is a great location to be stayin, close to bars, bus transport. Oh the staff where always courteous and helpful. This was the second occassion that I stayed in your hotel. The first room I stayed was at the rear facing though had a/C. The second time my room faced the old square. Great view overlooking the square on Sunday night u needed to leave the window open as there are no fans or a/C. Monday night was the problem as again it was very hot, the bars down on the square where open till late. Then bars settled, the cleaners came into clean up the square. So very little sleep. I suggest a/c in rooms overlooking the square as h receive the full sun! That's my only gripe
Hotel atmosphere and location. The room was nice but toilet/shover room was quite small and plain.
Staff was very kind and helpfull, breakfast very good
At rommet var rent og delikat i fargene, og frokosten var god og peronalet var veldig hjelpsomme. Nei.
Heggelig betjening, veldig bra frokost, god seng og lite, men funksjonelt bad Litt lytt til gangene
Venligt personale Svært at hitta
Stille og rolig i og rundt hotellet.OK frokost. Hyggelig vertskap. Grei parkering
Enkelt og hyggelig.
Problemfritt Ingen mulighet for å kjøpe noe å drikke (som vi fant) på kvelden, heller ikke i hotellets omgivelser.
Likte alt . Fin belligenhet, hyggelig personale og bra pris. Kjempe bra å kunne parkere i bakgården på hotellet slik at bilen slapp å stå langs vegen.
jeg fikk bytte rom ettersom opprinnelig rom lå på gateplan og jeg fikk rom i andre etage istedet. meget god service. nei
Gode senger,god mat og hyggelig personale.. nei
Hotellet ligger i/ved en park i rolige omgivelser. Fint å bare rusle der og slappe av. Kort vei til sentrum av byen med butikker og restauranter. Også et godt utgangspunkt for turer i nærheten, f.eks. Vadstena. Ingen spesielle ting å klage på.
Bra service og beliggenhet Deler av hotellet virket noe slitt
personalet er fantastisk hyggelig. alt for varmt på rommet. går ikke å skru ned temp
This hotel looks really great from the outside as well as from the inside. Rooms are spacious, even the single rooms, and are very tidy and clean. Beds are comfortable but, being more than 2mtrs tall, slightly short for me. The entire hotel is decorated in a traditional style which looks really nice. Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful and it's just a 5 minute walk to the center of the city, with it's many restaurants. Breakfast is really good!
good place for budget travelers and short-term stay. Decent breakfast, helpful staff, good value for money not the best location -- away from the city center, but still at walking distance. No elevator, so one needs to carry all his/her luggage through the stairs (one or two floors).
Very kind staff No airconditioning
Professional Staff. Feels almost like home.
Charming country location...Must have gps to locate...10 km from Linkoping. Pleasant hosts. Breakfast marginal but adequate. Very simple furnishings. No curtain in bathroom window!!!! No in-room refrigerator...a microwave but no utensils of any kind, including glasses. Seems to us to be high-priced for what is offered...but charming location makes up for it somewhat.
It was extremely relaxing and totally stressfree. The surroundings are absolutely impeckable. You get the feeling of country living with a French flair.
Good size room, wireless internet, wonderful setting in open countryside, close to Linköping town Cleaning of wardrobes can be improved. Lot of dust on some (not all)lower shelves.
Charming location. We did not want to stay in an impersonal hotel chain. I had called to check whether the hotel could serve a light dinner. By all means, it had BBQ along with a small buffet with salad and potato grati, some cheese and fruits. Wine by the glass at a light price. You will at home. It is a bit out in the middle of no where but with a good GPS you will find it. Very friendly atmosphere and charming owner. We slept in one of the 2 barns. Great room and very clean but the noice insulation is light and therefore you can hear the TV program your neighboor is watching. Yet it was summer and several families stayed here so no noise after 22.00. That was the only down side if this can be categorized as such.
Wonderful ancient building and lovely decorated rooms. An oasis of recovery!

Mercedes-Benz E430 4MATIC Questions
Get answers to questions about your Mercedes-Benz E430 4MATIC at RepairPal. Find solutions, diagnose problems and get back on the road.Refine by vehicle
Tried replacing the headlight socket but it still would not work.
I'm I suppose to reset something.
no computer codes.
Is there anything I can do that would permit me to install it?
When I parked it everything was fine. Got min it and started it but I couldn't get it out of park. What do I need to do or reset?
my E430 will not go into gear after it warms up. The shifter displays R and D but will not display the gear numbers when toggled manually. This seemed to start after I accidentally knocked it out of gear while driving.
Bulbs are fine.
Just stopped working, when it was working I noticed that I could only control the AC temp for passenger side but not driver side and was hearing a slight hissing sound when I would kick the AC on. Just purchased car 2 wks ago, 149,000 miles, 1 owner and in perfect condition. Any ideas on what I'm looking at as far as problem and price? Please!
I cant figure out where it is coming from. Its been raining almost every day here. Can you offer up any suggestions. Recently I had a transmission gasket replaced? Pleas Help
This happens most often, I believe, around banks and military locations. I live in San Diego, Ca.. This happens up to 3-4 times a day or until in frustration and near by complaints I just leave it unlocked.
Usually on slow reversing
mechanic had to pull computers out to replace rs upper control arm,car ran fine before now wont go over 10 km/hr runs rough and stalls they think its a wiring problem but the only thing they pulled out were the computers in the engine bay to get at the bolts. could they have damaged the computers?
Had a bad experience with mechanic. Claimed the heads cracked resurfaced them. When he returned car a vibration under hood, we looked and when you put foot of gas left side of engine lifts up out of the car
Mechanic says the valves in the intake manifold have carbon on them. He put some cleaner in the motor through the purge valve to clean it but still have the noise Whats up? What do you think? The car is real nice looking but it is embarassing when the car is idleing and it sounds like an old junk box.
After my driver side went out, I tried to replace it and the new bulb wouldn't turn on. I've tested the same bulb on the opposite side and vice versea, the bulb works fine but the headlight still wouldn't come on. I have a theory that it might be a fuse but im not sure if 02 model have them. Help me out folks. Thanks.
I have a problem with the the spot on the timing cover where the bypass hose (oil cooler)connects to the water pump. i have the cylinder shaped bypass hose but wondering what else connects to the bypass hose to the water pump.
Empty light for gas comes on randomly while driving while i still have enough gas. When you shut the car off and turn it back on the lights off but soon again comes back on. Any ideas how to fix it or what it is?
When I insert my key in the ignition, it will not turn. I cannot start the car. If I hold down the unlock button on the remote sometimes it will allow me to turn the ignition. I have been stuck at gas pumps, etc.... What can I do to fix this?
I can't switch my AC from EC to recirculating mode on the control panel. The compressor guage low side reads 70 psi and will not engage. Is it possible that my EC sensor under the dash is bad? Please help.

My veh temperature gage will rise quickly when the veh is idled in traffic. The fans do NOT come on to cool the vehicle either. Could this be a result of the thermostat being bad? The vehicle recently had repairs to the front end as well.

The first song from the much awaited movie, 'Ek Villain' is out now! Shot beautifully, capturing the hues of nature and some breathtaking underwater scenes, the video surely stands tall. It has a magical spell and proves that director Mohit Suri is a master of his craft! And not just the visuals of the song are unmatched but so is the lead pair. Shraddha looks incredibly cute with the very hot Siddharth Malhotra and the romancing on the melodious track by Ankit Tiwari surely make them more desirable. The lead pair has a stamp of match-made-in-heaven all over it.
While the music is soothing, tinkling your heartbeats from the starting, dialogues by Shraddha are sure to make you go weak in the knees. The track has all the potential to make it to the top of your Romantic Playlist, and Ankit Tiwari's voice is worth the anticipation for the song. The guy, who was shadowed by Arijit Singh in 'Aashiqui 2', proves his worth. If Arijit had won your heart in 2013, Ankit can win your 2014. His voice has a powerful impact to melt one's heart and the lyrics are superb too. You would surely fall in love with this one and lovers can surely been swearing by this song, singing it walking hand in hand.
However, what's shockingly surprising thing about the track is that it marks the singing debut of Shraddha Malhotra. First it was the soothing voice of Alia Bhatt in 'Highway' that stole our heart and now it's the 'Aashiqui 2' babe casting her spell. The girl surely wins your heart.

Which Burger Joints Can Homophobes Trust?
Don't laugh. This is a serious question for Reverend Wiley Drake, pastor of the First Southern Baptist Church in Buena Park. Early Sunday morning, Drake, with assistance from the American Family Association (AFA), launched what he hopes will be a nationwide boycott of McDonald's.
Its sin? The company refused an AFA demand that it remove its name from the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce website and—in a senseless salute to Satan—also allowed "an openly homosexual" McDonald's executive to sit on the chamber's board of directors.
"This boycott is not about hiring homosexuals, or homosexuals eating at McDonald's, or how homosexual employees are treated," Drake wrote in an e-mail. "It's about McDonald's, as a corporation, choosing to put the full weight of their corporation behind promoting the homosexual agenda, including homosexual marriage."
(I wonder if the AFA will reprimand Drake for gross incompetence: He crammed the word "homosexual" a mere five times into two sentences.)

This situation prompted Drake at 7:40 a.m. on Sunday to declare that he will "personally send a $5 gift card from Burger King to each person that [sic] sends a complete [anti-McDonald's] petition with 10 supporters of the boycott." And he offered to give any individual or organization that joins the boycott "priority to come on any of my five world wide radio shows to share the Lord's leading in your life."
How about that, Mr. Snerdly?
But by 4:49 p.m. that same day, someone named "Nedd" notified Drake that his Burger King slap at McDonald's was ill-conceived: "You might wish to know Burger King gave between $5K and $10K to the Gay & Lesbo [sic] Task Force back in February."
Say it ain't so! Burger King too? Part of the Lavender Empire that's scheming to takeover schools, sports, the military and now corporate America! Isn't there any national fast food burger joint willing to openly spurn gays? Wiley, your gaydar is off. Here was your hint . . . [see image].
Dejected but still determined, Drake sent another e-mail. "Might have to change to a Wendy's gift card," he wrote. "Anyone have any suggestions?"
Holy cow, Wiley. Are you seated on a cushioned church pew? In May 2006, Wendy's caved into the dark side. The company announced that it had added a nondiscrimination policy with written protections for gay and lesbian employees.
Perhaps Dairy Queen has gift certificates.

Separating Fan and Light Switches
In all 3 bedrooms of my house, the fan and light are controlled by a single switch. I would like for the light and fan to each have their own switch (reaching for the chain in a dark room to turn on the light is a pain). I checked the breaker box and each bedroom runs off its own 15 amp circuit which includes the fan/light and 4 outlets (5 for the master). 15 amp circuits use #14 wire right? The power comes to the switch (for all 3) and then goes to the outlets. So in each switch box there are 3 cables entering/leaving the box (1 from the panel, 1 to the outlets, 1 to the fan/light).
Here's what I think I'm supposed to do:
-Shut off power to circuit at breaker
-Replace the 14/2 wire going to the fan/light with 14/3 wire (easier said then done, attics arent fun to be in during Louisiana summers)
-Enlarge hole in wall and replace box with "remodel" type 2-switch box
-Run two #14 wires from hot junction to each switch
-Connect black wire of fan light cable to one switch and red wire to the other
-At fan/light: Connect red wire to black wire of light, connect black wire to black wire of fan, connect white wire from both fan and light to white wire of cable, connect grounds from fan and light to ground wire of cable.
Let me know if this is correct. Thanks!
That is how it is done. Like you said, hot attics make for hard projects.
Sound like you have a handle on the task at hand. Be patient and carefull, leave yourself plenty of time and get plenty of liquid working in that attic will be no joke.
An alternative would be to install a fan remote control ($20 to $30). This will give you seperate light and fan control. Plus give you light dimming and fan speed control.
You have it correct and start work very early in the morning before it gets too hot in the attic.
Its DIYer like this i don't mind helping out, they think and research there project out to the fullest and then ask if there is anything he missed. So to the OP good job, this project is a bit more advanced and you have it worked out to a tee. Take your time and do it once.
I hate when people come on here wanting us to tell them how to do everything for them.
Thanks for the positive feedback guys. I just wanted to make sure I was doing it right because I've never tackled an electrical project of this magnitude, only replaced a few worn outlets and light switches.
A few more questions though:
-All of the bedroom circuits run off of a 15-amp circuit, but the living room and dining room run off of 20-amp breakers. Why is this so? Why not run 20-amp minimum on all circuits? The house was built in 1978, maybe they do it differently now?
-Also, last night I pulled off the cover plate to a 3-switch wall box in my living room, all of which are on the same circuit. I noticed that each switch has its own cable running to and from it (6 cables total entering/leaving box). I'm guessing the split in the circuit (from 1 to 3) is taken at a junction box somewhere in the attic instead of the switch box. Is there a code that prohibits taking a split in the switch box instead of in a junction box? Or is this just done to have less wires in the switch box?
The is no code about splitting in the switch box. They could have brought one power feed into the box and then three switched lines out to the lights. In fact that is how I would have done it. No need for three power feeds from the same circuit in the same box.
Follow Up
I replaced the fan in my master bedroom and ran new 14/3 wiring as well as added the second switch about a month ago and it has been working fine since. Now I want to do the same with my other two bedrooms. In both rooms, when I opened the switch box I noticed that both switches were middle-of-the-run switches (wire coming in and going out to another receptacle) just like the master, no difference there. However, unlike in the master, the switch itself was being used as the hot terminal instead of using a wire nut. In other words, both the screw terminal as well as the push-in terminal on the switch are used for the incoming hot and outgoing hot so you have 3 wires connected to the switch. Only one wire nut in the outlet box for the 3 white wires. My question is...can I practice this same technique when I add another switch? I would do as follows: Connected incoming hot wire to push-in terminal on light switch, connect hot jumper wire from screw terminal on light switch to screw terminal on fan switch, and connect outgoing hot wire to push-in terminal on fan switch. There would be no change in the red and black wires going to the fan and light.
You could do it that way, but to me a pigtail would work best.
I agree with JB. The only thing I'd hook to the switch is the 'hot' pigtail and the load.
"In all 3 bedrooms of my house, the fan and light are controlled by a single switch."
That is the worst type of wire planning to construct homes. I have lived in my homes which has the same type of fittings.

A new pope has been elected: Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, archbishop of Buenos Aires in Argentina. He is the first non-European elected to that office in over 1000 years. He will be the 266th person to hold that office. He is taking the name of Francis (the proper form being Francis, not Francis I, as I posted earlier, since the first of that name is not given a number until there are others that need to be distinguished from each other).
I can't believe that there has been no other pope named Francis, St. Francis being such a notable saint. (See this for the possible significance of the name.) At any rate, the election of this first South American pontiff is surely something of a surprise. The top prospect lists of prospective popes that I saw earlier didn't mention him. I did find one that did, which I'll quote after the jump, along with a video of Pope Francis. [Read more…]

African Union: Right Steps toward Comprehensive Settlement in Sudan
September 21, 2014
By: Gamal A. Adam
The efforts that African Union has recently started making through its High-Level Implementation Panel (HIP) led by former president of South African, Thabo Mbeki, regarding a comprehensive settlement to the disastrous situation in Sudan, constitute a first endeavor toward the right direction in the history of conflict and peace in the country. These efforts really deserve the support of Sudanese as well as that of non-Sudanese observers who really want a united, peaceful, stable and prosperous Sudan in the future.
I have made it clear on many occasions that the Sudanese problem is one and needs to be settled all at once without any segmentation. Many opportunities were missed and resources squandered from Addis Ababa agreement in 1972 to recent attempts by Qataris (Doha Document for Peace in Darfur in 2011) and African Union (various meetings between Sudan People's Liberation North (SPLMN) and the al-Bashir regime in Addis Ababa earlier this year). In particular, the Naivasha peace talks that resulted in the "Comprehensive Peace Agreement" (CPA) in 2005 would have settled the problem of the country entirely and saved its unity, probably with a first non-Arabized Nubian Christian in its presidency. However, the racism of those in power, self-centeredness and/or opportunism of some in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), including individual rebels, and geo-political interests of mediators gave birth to a partial solution. The irony is that they named it a "Comprehensive Peace Agreement" despite its exclusiveness.
Helping the government, movements and political parties "representing" various components of the Sudanese population is the only way toward a viable comprehensive solution and it is what the African Union is trying to do this time. Nevertheless, there is a lot of work waiting on the way before reaching the negotiations stage. The Sudanese society today is more fragmented than it has ever been and the alliances (i.e. between different factions of rebel groups, between the latter and political parties, and between political parties themselves) are rather tactical than strategic and based more on individual leaders' interests than on the salvation of the country. For example, the political bodies such as National Consensus Forces and political-military bodies such the Sudan Revolutionary Front are all tactical bodies and, as a result, their leaders failed to come up with a convincing national program that would rally most of the Sudanese masses behind it. Therefore, the Sudanese opposition (both civil and military) has to overcome the myopic goals aiming at serving individual leaders' interests, find a way to quickly unite itself, and come up with a comprehensive program that will put the unity of country and the wellbeing of its people above all religions, races/ethnic groups, and cultures that exist in Sudan.
The biggest problem is the NIF regime. By his National Dialogue Speech of January 27, 2014 which he and his supporters call al-Wathba (literally, a big leap) and which most of the Sudanese people refer to as "al-Kazba" (lie), President Omer al-Bashir and members of his government are only looking for means to reduce the pressure they are experiencing in all fronts. According to several Sudanese media sources and African Union website, it seems that President al-Bashir promised the chair of AU's High-Level Implementation Panel, President Thabo Mbeki, during their September 10, meeting in Khartoum, that the AU would host inclusive meetings toward a comprehensive peace deal for Sudan in Addis Ababa. It also seems that al-Bashir promised Mbeki that the cessation of hostilities in all parts of the country, most particularly in Blue Nile, Darfur and Nuba Mountains, must precede the prospective comprehensive peace talks in Addis Ababa. However, a week later, the same Sudanese news sources reported al-Bashir's most prominent presidential aid, Ibrahim Ghandour, saying that there is no such a thing as cessation of hostilities, talks outside Sudan, or transitional government. He even went further to describe the AU's High-Level Implementation Panel's efforts toward finding a comprehensive settlement to Sudan's problem as defective and detracting to al-Bashir's initiative. Ghandour stressed these issues in a rally, which his party organized in 'Atbara, Northern Sudan. Ghandour (http://http://www.sudantribune.comwww.sudantribune.com, 20/9/2014), Mukhtar al-Asumm (http://http://www.sudanile.comwww.sudanile.com, 20/9/2014) and others in al-Bashir's NIF regime further continued reiterating that their regime will go ahead with the 2015 election plan and that the national dialogue will never postpone it. These statements reflect the NIF regime's position and the al-Wathba initiative is only a lifejacket its leaders are using to survive in the turbulent sea of pressures in which they have put themselves. Therefore, the Sudanese people are right by considering al-Wathba dialogue as one of the regime's habitual lies which they have been hearing for over a quarter of a century.
The African Union is now facing the problem of bringing to a negotiation table an incompetent and fragmented opposition and a racist regime whose leaders are trying everything they can to stay in power forever. Therefore, the organization needs to adopt new mechanisms that will enable it to put pressure on both sides equally and then rally its member countries as well as other organizations and countries behind its initiative. One of the reasons why the NIF regime is adamant in the pursuit of its destructive policies and violating every single agreement it signs is the endless support its leaders received from the African Union and individual African countries in the international arena. Yet, it has become common knowledge that the regime's racist plans aim at cleansing Sudan of entire groups simply because they are not Arabs. There is a ray of hope that the opposition will unite with a help from mediators, but the regime will continue to be the main problem until the African Union puts the security and wellbeing of Africans ahead of criminal regimes that victimize their own people for no reason.

Causey's Spicy Chicken Rub
Spicy Chicken Rub is a ready-to-use dry cooking spice blend that is true to its name. Sprinkle on meat for a little heat and beautiful red-brown color. Rub a small amount into the surface of the meat and let it sit for a few minutes or overnight before cooking. Place a little Spicy Chicken Rub in the cavity of a bird for a more intense flavor. JC has always used Chicken rub in his restaurant and now you can get the same flavor at home.

The Buffalo Bills head into the 2013 season the same way they have for the past decade and a half — with lots of questions.
New Head Coach Doug Marrone has made his way west down I-90 to take control of Upstate New York's NFL team after four season's at the helm of New York's college team (Syracuse), reestablishing the program as a legitimate power in the Northeast.
One thing Marrone didn't have to compete with during his time at Syracuse was the New England Patriots. The Patriots have won the AFC East nine of the last ten seasons — only failing to accomplish the feat when Tom Brady went down with a knee injury in Week One of the 2008 campaign.
If Marrone is going to get the Bills back to the top of the AFC East, he'll have to beat Brady, Belichick and the Patriots to do so. A young roster with stars scattered throughout will provide a solid core for the new coach to build around, but he'll need some of his own guys to truly carry out his vision.
That's where the 2013 Draft comes into play. Here are five guys Doug Marrone and the Buffalo Bills should be targeting heading into April's annual player selection meeting.
Chance Warmack, G, Alabama — The Bills need to be stronger on the interior of the offensive line in order to establish an effective run game with the likes of C.J. Spiller. Warmack was an absolute stud at Alabama and has been compared to first-ballot Hall of Famer Will Shields. If he's available when Buffalo picks at No. 8, it would be a crime to pass on him.
Ryan Nassib, QB, Syracuse — There may actually be riots in downtown Buffalo if the Bills don't stop this revolving door that has been the quarterback position since Jim Kelly retired. I mentioned that Marrone was going to need his own guys — well, Nassib IS Marrone's main guy. The Syracuse quarterback ascended to the top of the collegiate ranks under Marrone's tutelage. Taking him in the second round, where he should still be available, makes perfect sense.
Khaseem Greene, LB, Rutgers — If you are going to beat Tom Brady and the Patriots, you have to limit their scoring opportunities. Greene specializes in open-field tackles and beating backs to the edge. He's the perfect anecdote for New England's dangerous screen game. He also might be the most effective defender in the draft when it comes to forcing fumbles. He'll be available in Round Three.
Jordan Hill, DT, Penn State — Hill is an athletic, versatile interior lineman that could provide Buffalo's front seven with a huge spark. He has rare sideline-to-sideline speed for a defensive tackle and is extremely effective of batting down quarterback's passes at the line of scrimmage. He's a solid prospect that Buffalo can grab in the 4th Round and could see immediate playing time.
Jake Stoneburner, TE, Ohio State — Stoneburner is not a prototypical tight end, however, he'll line up at the position and cause mismatches against slower linebackers. He has a niche for getting open and piling up yards after the catch — sort of resembling an over-sized slot receiver. Coach Marrone would never run out of creative ways to get this guy the ball, much like New England does with Aaron Hernandez. Stonerburner is undervalued by many and as such, Buffalo should be able to land him in the later rounds.

I just bought the Linear in 5 speed manual and when I test drove the car, they only had an arc in a 5 speed. Anyways, I really want to throw a bigger turbo into my Linear. I figure I have time to wait around and hope to find one out of a wrecked saab (comments?). Also have any of you upgraded turbos in the Linear and what else will need to be adjusted if I do this?? :) :) [/u]

The Tories have been accused of suppressing a report that calls for two new garden cities to combat the housing shortage.
Liberal Democrat party president Tim Farron suggested Conservatives were concerned that the proposals could alienate voters in their southern heartlands.
The report was initially commissioned nearly two years ago after Prime Minister David Cameron gave a speech supporting the idea of garden cities.
It is believed to float two potential sites in Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire - where Mr Cameron's own Witney constituency is.
Earlier this week Lib Dem deputy prime minister Nick Clegg signalled his continued support for new garden cities, saying he hoped plans would be published as soon as possible.
Mr Farron told the Daily Telegraph: "It is time to break the log jam. This report needs to come out now and come out quickly. The Tories are displaying a Nimby attitude towards garden cities.
"We need to grasp this nettle and turn all these warm words about housing into action. For a growing number of people, the aspiration of home ownership, with all the security it brings, has become a distant dream. We need to do much more to help people realise their dreams.
"Garden cities offer a real chance for us to help tackle this problem and boost the economy."

Terrorist boy scouts?
Posted on 07/25/2007 11:04:48 AM EDT by AmericanHunter
Terrorist Boy Scouts?
Let me say up front: I am not making this up.
There's a Boy Scout camp in Colorado where they've taught gun safety and target shooting for years. Well, when some newcomer neighbors complained about it, the county sheriff there likened the place to a "Hamas training camp."
Elbert County Sheriff William Frangis, who's testified in favor of gun bans in Denver on multiple occasions, now has the Boy Scouts in his sights.
So, what were the Scouts doing that caused all the commotion?
Shooting sporting clays during a two-day fundraiser.
Yeah, I know: So what?
The Peaceful Valley Scout Ranch has had a shooting range for rifles and pistols for years. No one ever complained about it before.
But as the anti-gun granola crowd has moved out of the cities to find trees to hug and people to boss around, the Boy Scouts of Peaceful Valley have found themselves under attack.
Instead of doing the neighborly thing and going directly to the Scouts with their complaint, these new busybody neighbors complained to the cops. And, being that Sheriff Frangis seems to hate the Second Amendment, he was only too happy to help.
So when the Scout camp tried to get a permit from the county commissioners to continue shooting on the range, Sheriff Frangis-and those nay-saying neighbors-were there to shut them down.
Frangis warned of lead shot. He spoke ominously of seeing people smoking cigarettes near so-called "stockpiles of ammunition."
One activist said, "It was like World War III had started."
Who are these people?
A county sheriff ought to know that, as far as environmental hazards go, the lead on a shooting range isn't much of a threat.
A county sheriff ought to know that shotgun shells won't suddenly explode in a fireball just because somebody is smoking a cigarette nearby.
A county sheriff ought to know that the Boy Scouts are an important organization that does a lot of good for our country and our kids.
And he shouldn't liken them to terrorists just to grab headlines for his own anti-gun agenda.

Some states are more patriotic than others when it comes to buying cars and trucks from domestic automakers. Here's a look at how they stack up.
General Motors and Honda announced an ambitious joint venture they hope will allow them to transform the fuel cell from a scientific curiosity to a mass-market reality.
The two automakers plan to team up in an effort to bring zero-emission hydrogen fuel-cell technology to the mass market by the end of the decade.
Ford is rolling out a new version of its popular F-Series truck. The Ford F-150 Tremor is a regular cab pickup with a short wheel base and Ecoboost engine.
With some states either banning or considering a ban on vehicles being sold directly by an automaker, Tesla Motors is petitioning the White House for help in swaying opinion.
The country's top-selling vehicle, the Ford F-150, has a new title: "Most American." The Cars.com American-Made Index ranks the F-150 in the top spot, replacing the Toyota Camry.
GM surged to the top of the charts in the 2013 J.D. Power Initial Quality Survey, the most influential measure of vehicle quality during the first months off the showroom lot.
Ford plans to add 800 more white-collar workers by the end of 2013 after already signing on 2,200 so far this year. It's another sign of surging domestic demand.
A new study shows drivers who use hands free cell phones to talk or send messages while on the road are more distracted than those not using a cell phone behind the wheel.
A decade after the Toyota Prius became a hit as the first hybrid to attract large numbers of buyers, sales of the popular car need a charge.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened an investigation into 320,000 Honda minivans to determine if they should be recalled for airbags that spontaneously deploy.
The auto industry is about to go on a hiring spree as carmakers and parts suppliers race to find engineers, technicians, and factory workers.
The Japanese automaker delivers a bolder design, more room, and better mileage with its 11th generation Corolla.
Japan's benchmark stock index moved out of bear market territory on Friday following comments by Japan's Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF) that shook Tokyo financial markets minutes before the close of trade.
A new study shows airlines worldwide set a new record in 2012 racking up $27.1 billion in ancillary revenue. The 19.9% increase in money collected from non-fare revenue sources shows airlines are expanding how they generate profits.
Peer-to-peer car sharing is only a few years old and as this new business model expands, it's running into a few roadblocks. Some states are asking questions about liability issues.
In a highly unusual move, Chrysler is fighting a request from the federal government to recall 2.7 million Jeep vehicles over concerns the fuel tank may leak.
Americans eager to drive a new car or truck have rediscovered leasing deals. In fact, leasing hit a new high in the first quarter according to Experian Automotive.
Manufacturing contracts; car sales improve; Apple execs head to court in an e-books price-fixing case, while the company's shares may head higher.
America's resurgent housing market, along with strong demand from the booming energy sector, are pushing pickup truck sales to their strongest levels in six years.

PORCH - from BRICK to WOOD
We had a 30 foot long porch in front of the house. THe floors was concrete and the siding was brick.
The support under the concred was not build well and we decided to take it out and replace the porch with a wood porch.
As we took out the concrete porch and the brick we realized that under the porch was filled with dirt (georgia red clay). I guess the clay was used as support for the concrete floor of the porch.
As we built the wood deck we did not remove the dirty.
A day later the termites inspectors from Orkins came by and said they will cancel our service unless we remove the clay.
It would cost my alot to get that moved out.
Is there a real danger for termites if we dont remove the clay?
What type of lumber did you use to build your deck? Pressure treated? How close is the deck to the ground?. In my area the termites don't live in our adobe clay but hopefully there will be someone along who can comment on Georgia clay.

Desert Hills Premium Outlets adding 50 new stores
CABAZON, Calif. - More than $100 million later, the Desert Hills Premium outlets in Cabazon can finally show off its full expansion.
"In November we opened up the parking garage the size of three football field and now on Thursday we have our expansion celebration," Liz Perkovich said.
Get ready for 50 new high end outlets.
"For the first time in north America - Alexander McQueen. Helmut Lang, Belstaff, Frette, Maxmara and many many more," Liz Perkovich of Desert Hills Premium Outlets said.
The addition opens up the outlets to not just the usual shoppers.
"I believe we'll be able to pull in the LA client and I think there is more men's wear available now, too," Robert Graham employee, Karla Alanis, said.
There will also be a Disney Outlet, and Alanis said that will create a more family-friendly atmosphere.
With this major expansion came 300 construction jobs and 400 permanent jobs for store employees - and they're still hiring.
"Palm Springs has always been known for many years and there is more of a resurgence going on. And we tie into that. So many people like to shop and then go to Palm Springs and shop, and we look at ourselves as a major attraction to the valley," Perkovich said.
Forty of the outlets will open this Thursday, the other 10 by the summer. For a complete list of stores coming to the outlets, visit www.premiumoutlets.com/deserthills. To find out about job openings, call the specific store you are interested in.

Study raises alarm on suicide risk for UK soldiers
By Michael Kahn
LONDON (Reuters) - Young British men who have left the military are up to three times more likely to kill themselves than people in the general population or those remaining in service, researchers said Monday.
Men younger than 24 years of age who served a short stint and had a low rank were at the highest risk of suicide, according to the study published in the Public Library of Science journal PLoS Medicine.
The findings come after a serving holder of Britain's highest military medal accused the government last week of failing to provide enough care for soldiers suffering mental trauma after fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Lance Corporal Johnson Beharry, awarded the Victoria Cross for saving the lives of comrades in Iraq, said the government had not done enough to help soldiers suffering from severe combat stress, depression and mental breakdowns.
Nav Kapur of the University of Manchester and colleagues said their study highlights the need to offer suicide prevention programs for young men who may be more likely to kill themselves after leaving the military.
But the researchers cautioned these young may have had problems before joining the military, and the increased risk may not have anything to do with their armed forces experience.
"Young men who leave the British armed forces were at increased risk of suicide," they wrote. "This may reflect pre-service vulnerabilities rather than factors related to service experiences or discharge."
The stress of transitioning to civilian life or bad experiences while serving might also play a role, they added. Continued...

Compile a list: Internet companies that ship to Canada
Hello, I'm in the process of planning a 90 gallon project and finding companies that ship to Canada is driving me nuts. It seems 80% (come on, prove me wrong) of companies can't or won't ship to Canada for a variety of reasons.
So, if you've used a mail order/internet company to ship to Canada please respond. I'll compile the list and any comments you have. Please provide:
1. Internet address
2. Company Name
3. Items purchased
4. Positive notes
5. Negative notes
6. Overall satisfaction rating (1-5)
Thus far I'm aware of:
Mail order pet supply, Your Aquarium Supply Specialists!
Dr. Foster Smith, The Planted Tank - Articles, Forums, Pictures, Links
Big Al's, Big Al's Canada Home Page, the Canadian prices seem a tad high
Petsandponds.com ships from within Canada, seems to have very good prices
AquariumPlants.com Largest online sales / service site for the live aquarium plants community. ships from within Canada, seems to have good prices but expensive shipping.
I've had things shipped from the states (not just aquarium supplies) and the problem is that they often charge an extra fee for international shipping or simply over-inflate the shipping, plus you have to pay duty and sometimes a brokerage fee (if it comes other than by Post). AND sometimes the item gets held up at customs for a long time.
It's hardly worth it, better to find places like those listed above that ship from within Canada, even if the postage seems higher than US companys charge.
I've been happy with plants from Aquariumplants.com, and with orders from Big Al's, Pets & Ponds and MOPS:Aquarium Supplies Category List
www.aquatropique.com its in french but as long as you know latin names and a bit of french for your adress or you can use a translator. they are located i believe in montreal.
wanted to add aquaspot not that i have had any luck with them i was very disapointed and lost alot of money but never the less they do ship to canada and hopefully wont mess any more orders up.
http://www.aqua-digital.com/, based in Canada, deals in digital testing & monitoing equipment
Aqua Digital INC.
Bought a couple of PH monitors, good price,good products, very good customer service, will deal with them again.
On ebay, aquaticmagic sells many plants with free shipping to Canada. I have heard one good referral for them and may try them out myself later on.
This one is Hamilton, Ontario, Canada and is absolutely terrific to deal with ... I mail order from them several times already (and I'm only 1 hour away)
Mail Order Pet Supplies (M.O.P.S.)
Another one is www.JLaquatics.com
Never purchased from them but the prices are competitive and some other people recommended me there.
Harder to find plumbing stuff at seemingly good prices, shipped quick and good service:
http://www.aquariumplants.com ships out of a DC in Winnipeg now, so there shipping isn't bad anymore...But they're terrible at replying to email.
That MOPS.ca website is so antiquated. Do they think that this is still 1995?
Mops has a new site now. Although I think the Canadian and us prices are backwards cause everything is cheaper in Canadian.
not worth it at all, and i've ordered from them in the past without these ridiculous shipping costs. i'll be looking around town for now unless there's a more reasonable option.

City council considers hiring full-time building inspector
Franiuk, Graveman hold differing views on proposal
Mayor John Franiuk and City Councilwoman Kathy Graveman are at odds over whether the city should hire a full-time building inspector.
Currently, the city contracts with Tim Pinnick, who is paid 40 percent of building permit fees to conduct inspections.
The mayor wants to hire a full-time building inspector for about $35,000. Franiuk said he believes that inspector also could enforce the city's recently stepped-up building safety codes. And that person could help with reviews of planning documents.
He said he consistently hears from builders, who are unhappy that the city's building inspector is not available more.
"We need to provide a full-time building inspector for the builders in our community," he said. "That's what we do nowadays: We build homes. That's the service that needs to be improved."
However, at Monday night's city council meeting, Graveman told council members that the matter needs further study. To that end, she provided the council with a brief report she had completed. In that report, she advocates hiring an employee for a higher salary who would wear many hats.
She said she believes a civil engineer, hired for $60,000, could replace the city planner and building inspector and handle some engineering projects currently done by BG Consultants, a Lawrence firm that handles the city's engineering needs.
"I think a town our size needs to consider consolidation of jobs, if that is at all possible," she said.
She said it's possible the city could save between $30,000 and $50,000 annually under her plan.
Graveman based her idea on conversations she had with the chair of the University of Kansas civil engineering department, a head-hunting firm in Kansas City and city engineers for De Soto and Harrisonville, Mo.
She suggested the council defer the matter and study the issue further. She also encouraged council members to seek information on their own.
Franiuk said he doesn't believe a civil engineer would handle the myriad projects he envisions. And he thinks it's possible other issues are at play in this instance.
"I think a lot of people in town have made an assumption that our engineers are ripping us off or sticking us for more money than necessary," Franiuk said.
While Franiuk says BG Consultants is an award-winning firm, he said it's possible the city should review its rates in comparison with other firms.
While several members of the audience on Monday supported forming a citizen committee to review the matter, Franiuk said on Tuesday that he plans to ask council members to approve a full-time building inspector.
"I'm going to put it back on the agenda to hire an inspector," he said. "That's what we need."

Asher Roth is back! Who's Asher Roth? He's the "I Love College" guy. The white rapper with the laconic delivery who summed up the college experience with conceits like "Time isn't wasted when you're wasted" and "I can get pizza for a dollar a slice." Roth's latest incarnation seems to be as a weed rapper. But that doesn't mean he's become lackadaisical. He has a new album that drops this spring; this mixtape is just three months old.
I'm going soothsayer on that backside: Pabst & Jazz will turn out to be superior, more surprising and more engaging for hip-hop fans than his upcoming official release. Certainly, his label is interested in repeating the success of "ILC," but these tracks are created by a man out to prove he's something more than a one-hit wonder. "Get By" demonstrates Roth's lyrical and reliable pop sensibilities. "Running Away" unveils the mindset of a man ruminating on his own hip-hop authenticity: "I've been bordered up by a border / I'mma sort it out in order / ... / Not interested in anybody's listening / Do it for the gist of it." Roth quickly graduated to stardom but it's here that he becomes an emcee.
Asher Roth performs with Black Mask at the Chamberlin Rail Jam at the Big Sky Brewery on Sat., Mar. 10, at 8:30 PM. $23.09, available at railjammissoula.eventbrite.com

North Korea is a mystery wrapped in an enigma of confusion, a land which engages in nonstop uttering of threats and warnings. However, there are reports that China has made clear to its tiny neighbor that neither development of nuclear weapons or engaging in war will be allowed. The North Korean National Defense Commission which is led by our Beloved All Wise Great Leader, Kim Jong-un, has asked for talks with the United States and South Korea in order to reduce tensions on the peninsula. They want high level discussions and are ready to engage in serious discussions.
This might be a ploy, this might be another dodge, this might be another empty promise, but the path to peace is always, "jaw, jaw, not war, war."

Exterior rot area concerns - Seattle, WA
I have serious surface (paint) issue on siding. I do have some area rotting and will need replacement on siding.
Paint company I am thinking of using advised striping 2 sides of house and do normal paint process.
We have original wood windows and need condition of wood frame seems ok. We have 30 windows and can paint job save windows from replacing?
I do have confidence in current paint company on workmanship.
But my most concern is two areas rotting. Cost by paint company wasn't cheap. But they have in house carpenters and will come and repair .
Because we are separating job, seems cost is much more than expected.
Do yo think it is okay to let rot go until spring and do all at once?
Or is it better to address this now?
Seattle weather is wet and we are starting to have rain and how much rain this winter is unknown, but would love to hear some good input from specialist.
Thanks bunch!!
As with many rot repairs, you may open up a can of worms. Find the cause of the rot to make sure the repair doesn't fail.
I would take care of the rot sooner rather than later, think of it as the longer you wait the more it will cost...
if you have confidence in the painting company then let their carpenter's take care of the repairs. Just be aware that with rot repair sometimes there can be unexpected surprises, little bit of extra work that will need to be done.
