I am already spayed, up to date with shots, and good with cats.
You can call the shelter for an appointment to meet me, or come to PetSmart in Conyers or Bethlehem for a meet and greet.
None of us are exactly at our very best at PetSmart, but that's just because we're used to having lots of love and fun at our shelter home and going to PetSmart with all the loud noises and bright lights is a little scary. Still, you can see how handsome I am and that I'd be really great as your new forever best friend.

It's not hard to see that despite Kulemin's struggles in Toronto how he could have a fairly good shot at turning his game around here and becoming a nice addition to our forward corps. I think the same could be said for Setoguchi, Stewart, and a slew of other players who may be on the move.
When you're a complimentary forward (i.e. a forward who needs a good player to produce - others may call it a leach), that player will never produce if they are not paired with the right linemates. Kulemin really has never had anything like we have here in Toronto. Setoguchi did have a comparable player in San Jose, and that's when he put up a huge year.
Ideally, I'd like to see Shero get Kulemin to play on Malkin's left, Seto to play on Sid's right, and Dupuis replacing BearManPig on the 3rd line next to Sutter. I really liked Sutter-Cooke-Dupuis yesterday night.

Do a have a case for compensation??
I agree with the other answers. Bottom line is call a personal injury attorney.See question
No contact nor other information that states this is policy.
As the other attorneys indicated, some additional facts are needed. However, if you were injured on the job and you have restrictions as a result, you may qualify for wage loss. If the employer cannot accommodate your restrictions you may qualify for temporary total disability. The key is to find out if you have an allowed BWC claim. I suggest you contact an Ohio attorney who handles BWC claims. You may be entitled to an injury award as well as having your medical bills paid by the BWC.
I strongly suggest you contact an attorney in order to discuss your claim. The initial consultation should be free. A phone call seeking initial information should also be free.

Under current Ohio law, workers' compensation claim over-payments can only be recouped from future money paid in that claim or any other claim that an injured worker has or files into the future. Therefore, in the absence of fraud, the BWC has no authority to attach bank accounts or property for any existing overpayment.
However, if you are stating that the 'lien' is related to failure to pay premiums in related to a business you own, then that is different from the above statement. In that instance you should consult with an attorney that practices in the area of Collection Law.
Your question, unfortunately, does not give enough information to respond with anything other than generalities related to overpayment of compensation in a workers' compensation claim.See question
Turned down by KNR because I didn't have a referral at the time I called them.
You should call other Personal Injury attorneys. KNR is not the only firm that practices in that area. Your question does not provide enough information to give a concise answer. You should at least make a few telephone calls to speak with attorneys. Keep following your doctor's advice regarding medical treatment and follow up.

In my opinion, there is NO BWC claim that should be settled without advice from an attorney. There are many components to consider in your claim that I'm pretty sure you have not considered.
The BWC normally will not contact you to settle your claim. I strongly suggest that you contact an attorney for a review of your claim. You might be surprised at all of the additional compensation you may be entitled to.
When you state you have no remaining issues, you discuss that you will never have feeling back again. How does that affect your life, etc. It would seem that you do have remaining issues that need to be evaluated. Also, have you obtained your permanent partial disability award yet?

It is unusual that it would take any longer than 14 days from the date of approved surgery to start getting temporary total disability.

2) Your doctor has not completed a MEDCO-14.

The Big Red never fully overcame a flat start, and again got outplayed by the smallest of margins down the stretch in a 68-66 loss to New Hampshire. It was an opening-round game at the Richmond Downtown Marriott Holidays on the Hardwood Classic at the Verizon Wireless Arena.
The loss was Cornell's eighth straight, and leaves the Big Red at 2-9 heading into Thursday's consolation round game against the loser of Wofford and tournament host Virginia Commonwealth. Six of Cornell's eight losses have come by margins of five points or less.
"We're not (expecting) to win," Cornell coach Bill Courtney said. "Until we expect to win, we won't be successful."
Ferg Myrick converted a three-point play with 31 seconds left to give the Wildcats the lead for good at 66-63. Cornell had three chances to tie the game, but Max Groebe and Drew Ferry missed shots from the three-point arc.
Courtney was happy with the looks, which just didn't fall. He said defensively, "we couldn't get the stops when we needed."
"We got terrific looks," Courtney said. "Max got a wide-open 3, Andrew got two wide open 3s, so we had chances."
New Hampshire then went up 68-63, and Chris Wroblewski's 3-pointer with 2.7 seconds left too little time on the clock to complete a comeback.
Errick Peck, who scored 17 of his 19 points in the second half, had an opportunity to give Cornell the lead with just under one minute remaining and the game tied at 63. His jumper missed, and Myrick capitalized at the other end for the go-ahead bucket.
Peck sat out the bulk of the first half with two fouls, but played well in the second half.
"With him on the floor, we're an entirely different team," Courtney said.
Cornell managed just five points over the first eight-plus minutes of the game, and trailed by as many as 12 before producing a run. The Big Red used a 16-3 spurt to take its first lead, 27-26, on a Wroblewski jumper.
But Cornell suffered a letdown in the final two-plus minutes of the half, and a Brian Benson 3-point bank shot in the final second gave the Wildcats (6-5) a 33-27 lead.
Cornell took multiple one-possession leads in the second half. Its largest, 58-55 with 5:38 remaining, came after a three-point play by Peck.
Cornell shot 6-for-23 from the 3-point line. Both teams had four double-figure scorers. Wroblewski had 14 points and six assists, and Aaron Osgood had 12 points and seven rebounds.

The UNH lead grew to as many as 12 before a 14-1 Big Red run got Cornell the lead at 27-26. Wroblewski hit a 12-foot fallaway jumper to give Cornell its first lead of the game with 2:27 left in the half. The Wildcats scored the final seven points of the half, including a 30-foot trey by Jordon Bronner as time expired to take a 33-27 lead into the break.

Wroblewski scored six points and dished off three assists despite shooting 1-of-6 from the floor and missing all three of his 3-point attempts. The Big Red shot just 35 percent from the floor, but rebounded from a huge early rebounding hole (8-1) to get within 16-13 on the backboards. Dane DiLiegro scored nine points,while Tyrone Conley chipped in eight. Ferg Myrick scored five points, ha dfour assists and grabbed three rebounds in 14 minutes off the bench. The visitors on the scoreboard shot 52percent from the floor, but ended the first 20 minutes by missing eight of its last 11 shots after hitting 8-of-10 to open the game.
The second half lead for UNH ballooned up to seven against at 42-35 before Osgood scored four straight to get back within three, followed by a jumper by Wroblewski with his foot on the line to get back to 42-41. Cornell finally equalized at 50-50 when Peck hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key with 8:27 left. Peck's driving basket a minute later put the Big Red up, but only for a few seconds as Myrick raced down the court for a layup. The game would feature seven ties over the the seven minutes, the last coming at 63-63 when Peck hit a short jumper with 1:16 left. The decisive possession came on the ensuing Wildcats' possession. It ended with a scoop layup by Myrick and Osgood's fifth foul on the play to put UNH up 66-63. Three consecutive good looks from 4-point range riummed out and New Hampshire got a run-out basket to put them up five with six seconds left. Wroblewski drained a long 3-pointer with 2.7 seconds left and fouled immediately, sending Conley to the line for three free-throws leading 68-66. Both shots rimmed out, with Mark Coury gathering the last shot and firing ahead to Max Groebe. The senior caught the ball and flung it toward the hoop, but it landed well short as time expired to send the Big Red to the consolation game.

RICHMOND, Va. – Sophomore Ferg Myrick (Philadelphia, Pa.) led four scorers in double-digits with 14 points as the University of New Hampshire men's basketball team earned a 68-66 win against Cornell University in the opening game of the Richmond Marriott Holidays on the Hardwood Classic on Wednesday evening at Virginia Commonwealth University's Verizon Wireless Arena at the Stuart C. Siegel Center.
The Wildcats snap a three-game losing skid to improve to 6-5 on the season and are now 3-1 all-time against Cornell. The Big Red are now 2-9 and have lost eight straight.

Errick Peck led Cornell with 19 points in just 19 minutes.
With the game tied at 63 with 31 seconds to play, Myrick drove to the hoop and converted an up and under while drawing the foul. Myrick completed the three-point play at the line to give his team the 66-63 lead. After the 'Cats made a stop on the defensive end, Rhoads threw the ball ahead to Benson, who finished with a two-handed fast-break dunk to open UNH's lead to five with 6.4 seconds on the clock.
Chris Wroblewski then knocked down a 3-pointer from the right wing to slice it to two, but that is as close as Cornell would get as the Wildcats improved to a perfect 5-0 in games decided by less than six points.
UNH opened the game on a 12-2 run that was ignited by a Rhoads trey just 24 seconds in, and then capped with a one-handed slam by senior Dane DiLiegro (Lexington, Mass.) at the 13:32 mark. After a Drew Ferry 3-pointer, back-to-back baskets by Myrick made it 16-5 with 11:23 remaining in the opening half.

After the Wildcats nudged the gap to three, a layup by Aaron Osgood and a jumper by Wroblewski gave the Big Red their first lead of the contest at 27-26 with 2:27 to go.

Transporting Flowers Over A Long Distance
Decorating By candycakes51 Updated 7 Oct 2014 , 1:18am by candycakes51
Haven't been on for a while but I have a situation that I need some assistance with and I know one of my fellow Cake Central experts can give me some guidance in this.
I am transporting a wedding cake over 200 miles that will have a large number of flowers placed on it, mostly daisies since that is the bride's favorite. I will be assembling the cake upon arrival. Time constraints mean I have to make the flowers here then transport them to the wedding for assembly on the cake. I am worried about breakage, especially the petals on the daisies. I will be traveling by car.
Any suggestions?
wrap each one lightly in a kind of wadded up paper towel -- fully encased in the towel but not tight -- and place in a sheet cake box one next to the other so that even if the box slides the flowers inside do not slide -- add extra wadded up paper towels to ensure nothing slides -- a set up like this gives me no worries on at all on delivery day -- they are so light weight and packed so that nothing can hurt them --
sometimes you have to bend the stem 90 degrees to get everything to cooperate -- or roll it up a bit -- worth the extra effort for the peace of mind --
traveling mercies for you
i remember watching reality tv where cakes were being delivered in new york city often in cabs -- and they would carry the flowers all open and with the wires stuck in foam clickety /clacketing together all the way wherever they went -- trotting down the stairs with them all the way in the cab getting out at the venue, blowing in the breeze -- omg each click and clack gave me another heart attack -- but they made it somehow and that girl's cakes were awesome -- and while it worked for them i would never carry flowers like that --
ATo hold the flowers gently you could line a box with a very plush folded towel. Dent where you want to place the flowers and each will have it's own little soft nest. Will help insulate with bumpy roads.
I've carried delicate flowers--gum paste & royal icing--in cars & on planes. My very favorite packing material is the cheapest toilet paper I can find.
I take a large box, unravel a roll of paper to cover the bottom, I wrap each flower lightly [but well] in the TP and is it in. Once I have a layer of flowers done that way, I unroll another roll on top and do it all over again until I have filled the box.
It'll weigh nothing, but those flowers will survive the trip.
I used to watch that show too, and thought the same thing!!
Thanks for the great suggestions everyone. These flowers won't be on wires so I think I will try Maybenot's suggestion. Sounds like a good one!!

Re-visited episode 540, the scene below triggered sense of deja vu...
Hmm... Jinbe and Arlong, sibling rivalry... now where have I saw that before??? Oh yes, the all-time running gag of our favourites : Zoro and Sanji
Then again, there was another one of such epic sibling rivalry years ago (OP time) - the almighty Shank and the sweet lovable ol' Buggy
It appears that over a few pirate crew, there exists such love-hate relationship (no yaoi thinking please!) between two members within the crew. Do you know of any more of such, two members within same pirate crew who has a strong bond of love-hate relationship among them? Tell me...
And its interesting to note that this seems to be one of Oda's many story-telling techniques which he uses time and time again with successful results (readers does not seem to mind nor annoyed with the repeated cliche).

Anti-Empire Report, March 3, 2008
The Anti-Empire Report
Read this or George W. Bush will be president the rest of your life
March 3, 2008
by William Blum
How could they have known? It wasn't on Oprah or Fox News.
Hillary Clinton and many other members of Congress claim that their support of the invasion of Iraq was based on faulty intelligence reports. How could they dispute the research and analysis of all those experts, so well trained and experienced in their fields?
Well, apart from the fact that American intelligence agencies and their reports were by no means of one opinion (one well-publicized CIA paper, for example, predicted all manner of devastating consequences which could result from an invasion and occupation) ... [1]
Apart from the fact that there were several public statements, including some on American TV, from Saddam Hussein's deputy prime minister, and other statements made by Iraqi scientists to American media and to American intelligence that Iraq no longer had any weapons of mass destruction ... [2]
Apart from the fact that UN nuclear inspectors had determined before the war that Iraq did not have a nuclear weapons program ... [3]
Apart from the fact that Colin Powell, speaking in February 2001 of US sanctions on Iraq, said: "And frankly they have worked. He [Saddam Hussein] has not developed any significant capability with respect to weapons of mass destruction. He is unable to project conventional power against his neighbors."[4]
Apart from all that, this question must be asked: What did the millions of Americans who marched against the war before it began know that all those members of Congress didn't know? At a minimum, they knew that nothing the Bush administration had told them came anywhere close to justifying dropping bombs on the innocent people of Iraq. They also knew that nothing the Bush administration had told them could be trusted. All it took to reach this advanced stage of awareness was not being born yesterday.
As I've written before, the same phenomenon attended the Vietnam War. The anti-Vietnam War movement burst out of the starting gate back in August 1964, with hundreds of people demonstrating in New York. Many of these early dissenters took apart and critically examined the administration's statements about the war's origin, its current situation, and its rosy picture of the future. They found continuous omission, contradiction, and duplicity, became quickly and wholly cynical, and called for immediate and unconditional withdrawal. This was a state of intellect and principle it took members of Congress and the media -- and then only a small minority -- until the 1970s to reach. And even then -- even today -- our political and media elite viewed Vietnam only as a "mistake"; i.e., it was "the wrong way" to fight communism, not that the United States should not be traveling all over the globe to spew violence against anything labeled "communism" in the first place. Essentially, the only thing these "best and brightest" have learned from Vietnam is that we should not have fought in Vietnam. And I'm afraid that the present generation of "leaders" will learn very little more than that we shouldn't have invaded Iraq.
A Mecca of hypocrisy, a Vatican of double standards
On February 21, following a demonstration against the United States role in Kosovo's declaration of independence, rioters in the Serbian capital of Belgrade broke into the US Embassy and set fire to an office. The attack was called "intolerable" by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice,[5] and the American Ambassador to the United Nations, Zalmay Khalilzad, said he would ask the UN Security Council to issue a unanimous statement "expressing the council's outrage, condemning the attack, and also reminding the Serb government of its responsibility to protect diplomatic facilities."[6]
This is of course standard language for such situations. But what the media and American officials don't remind us is that in May 1999, during the US/NATO bombing of Serbia, then part of Yugoslavia, the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade was hit by a US missile, causing considerable damage and killing three embassy employees. The official Washington story on this -- then, and still now -- is that it was a mistake. But this is almost certainly a lie. According to a joint investigation of The Observer of London and the Politiken newspaper in Denmark, the embassy was bombed because it was being used to transmit electronic communications for the Yugoslav army after the army's regular system was made inoperable by the bombing. The Observer was told that the embassy bombing was deliberate by "senior military and intelligence sources in Europe and the US" as well as being "confirmed in detail by three other Nato officers -- a flight controller operating in Naples, an intelligence officer monitoring Yugoslav radio traffic from Macedonia and a senior [NATO] headquarters officer in Brussels."[7]
Moreover, the New York Time reported at the time that the bombing had destroyed the embassy's intelligence-gathering nerve center, and two of the three Chinese killed were intelligence officers. "The highly sensitive nature of the parts of the embassy that were bombed suggests why the Chinese ... insist the bombing was no accident. ... 'That's exactly why they don't buy our explanation'," said a Pentagon official.[8] There were as well several other good reasons not to buy the story.[9]
In April 1986, after the French government refused the use of its air space to US warplanes headed for a bombing raid on Libya, the planes were forced to take another, longer route. When they reached Libya they bombed so close to the French embassy that the building was damaged and all communication links knocked out.[10]
And in April 2003, the US Ambassador to Russia was summoned to the Russian Foreign Ministry due to the fact that the residential quarter of Baghdad where the Russian embassy was located was bombed several times by the United States during its invasion of Iraq.[11] There had been reports that Saddam Hussein was hiding in the embassy.[12]
So, we can perhaps chalk up the State Department's affirmations about the inviolability of embassies as yet another example of US foreign policy hypocrisy. But I think that there is some satisfaction in that American foreign policy officials, as morally damaged as they must be, are not all so stupid that they don't know they're swimming in a sea of hypocrisy. The Los Angeles Times reported in 2004 that "The State Department plans to delay the release of a human rights report that was due out today, partly because of sensitivities over the prison abuse scandal in Iraq, U.S. officials said. One official ... said the release of the report, which describes actions taken by the U.S. government to encourage respect for human rights by other nations, could 'make us look hypocritical'."[13]
And last year the Washington Post informed us that Chester Crocker, former Assistant Secretary of State and current member of the State Department's Advisory Committee on Democracy Promotion, noted that "we have to be able to cope with the argument that the U.S. is inconsistent and hypocritical in its promotion of democracy around the world. That may be true."[14]
Like pornography, torture doesn't require a definition. You know it when you see it. Or feel it.
With all the media coverage of "waterboarding" and all the congressional questioning of government officials about their views on the subject, I imagine that by now many people think that waterboarding must be the worst kind of torture that the United States has engaged in, and that if waterboarding is in fact not torture then the idiot king is correct when he says: "We don't torture." This is the way myths are born, so let's try and squash this particular one while it's still young.
Here in capsule form is a sample of some of the acts carried out in recent years by American military forces, their contract employees, and the CIA against detainees in one or another edifice of the sprawling global prison complex maintained by the United States in occupied Iraq, occupied Afghanistan, occupied Cuba, and various other secret prisons occupied by the CIA around the world. It may be torture to read but the point needs to be made. Lest we forget.
Standing or kneeling or forced into contorted, painful positions for many hours ... in leg shackles and handcuffs with eyes, ears and mouth covered, exposed to extremes of heat or cold ... stripped naked, led around with a dog leash ... deprived of sleep, kicked to keep them awake for days on end, subjecting them to a 24-hour bombardment of bright lights or blaring noise ... guards staging races of detainees in short leg shackles, violently punishing them if they fall ... withholding painkillers and other medications from the injured ... sensory deprivation, with all human contact cut off ... made to lie naked on a sheet of ice ... fake blood smeared on Muslim men when they are about to pray, telling them that it's menstrual blood.
The Iraqi general "was put headfirst into a sleeping bag, wrapped with electrical cord and knocked down before the soldiers sat and stood on him. The cause of death was determined to be suffocation."
Chained to the ceiling, shackled so tightly that the blood flow stops ... shackled to the floor in fetal positions for more than 24 hours at a time, left without food and water, and allowed to defecate on themselves; a detainee found with a pile of hair next to him; he had apparently been literally pulling his own hair out throughout the night ... wrapping a prisoner in an Israeli flag ... use of unmuzzled, growling dogs to frighten, in at least one instance actually biting and severely injuring a detainee ... burn marks on their backs ... detainee left at an Iraqi hospital, comatose, with massive head trauma, burns on the bottoms of his feet caused by electrocution, bruises on his arms ... more than a hundred detainees have died during interrogations ...
The death of two captives in Afghanistan: one from "blunt force injuries to lower extremities complicating coronary artery disease"; an autopsy showed that his legs were so damaged that amputation would have been necessary; the other captive suffered from a blood clot in the lung that was exacerbated by a "blunt force injury" ...
Kicks to the groin and legs, shoving or slamming detainees into walls and tables, forcing water in their mouths until they could not breathe ... He had his hands handcuffed behind him and was suspended by his wrists -- "His arms were so badly stretched I was surprised they didn't pop out of their sockets." ... forced to masturbate while being photographed and videotaped ... seven naked Iraqis piled on top of each other in a pyramid ... detainee punched in the chest so hard he almost went into cardiac arrest ... forcing naked male detainees to wear women's underwear.
The report by General Taguba found that between October and December of 2003 there were numerous instances of "sadistic, blatant, and wanton criminal abuses" at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, including breaking chemical lights and pouring the phosphoric liquid on detainees, threatening male detainees with rape, sodomizing a detainee with a chemical light and perhaps a broom stick, raping female prisoners ...
Eighteen days naked and alone in a cell, often with his hands and feet bound together, frequently beaten ... "He locked his arm under mine and holding the back of my head he beat my head against the doors of the cells" ... his hands and feet were pushed through the metal bars of the cell door and then tied together.
Six weeks after his release, he says he has lost the will to live. He is too ashamed to be seen by his friends and family and has not seen or spoken to his fiancée. The wedding is off. "I was a man before, but my manhood was taken away. Since this happened to me, I consider myself dead. My life feels over."
Iraqi prisoners were forced to crawl through broken glass and wear women's sanitary products ... two drunken interrogators took a female Iraqi prisoner from her cell in the middle of the night and stripped her naked to the waist ... an Iraqi woman in her 70s was harnessed and ridden like a donkey ... detainees were pressed to denounce Islam, or force-fed pork and liquor ...
Jamadi died an hour after his arrival at Abu Ghraib in early November 2003; he had been beaten while in CIA custody and then hung by his wrists, with his arms crossed across his back. US Army guards at the prison then packed his body in ice and posed with the corpse in mocking photographs.
"They forced us to walk like dogs on our hands and knees ... and we had to bark like a dog, and if we didn't do that they started hitting us hard on our face and chest with no mercy." ... "Do you believe in anything?" the soldier asked. "I said to him, 'I believe in Allah.' So he said, 'But I believe in torture and I will torture you'."
Taken out and tied to a post, rubber bullets were fired at them; made to kneel in the sun until they collapsed ... "They tied my hands to my feet behind my back. My left hand to my right foot and my right hand to my left foot. I was lying face down and they were beating me like this" ... inmates kept in wire cages with concrete floors and no protection from the elements.
"They actually said: 'You have no rights here'. After a while, we stopped asking for human rights -- we wanted animal rights" ... crosses shaved into their scalp or body hair ... dislocated his arms, beat his leg with a bat, crushed his nose, and put an unloaded gun in his mouth and pulled the trigger ... Six Kuwaiti prisoners said they were severely beaten, given electric shocks and sodomized by US forces in Afghanistan ...
The Afghan detainee had been captured in Pakistan along with a group of other Afghans. His connection to al Qaeda or the value of his intelligence was never established before he died. "He was probably associated with people who were associated with al Qaeda," one US government official said. ... numerous suicide attempts ...
And here's George W. in 2004: "The world is better off without Saddam Hussein in power. The world is better off because he sits in a prison cell. Because we acted, torture rooms are closed, rape rooms no longer exist."[15]
Brian Whitman, spokesman for the US Department of Defense, 2005: "The United States treats all detainees in their custody with dignity and respect."[16]
It should be noted that the CIA has been treating (real and alleged) opponents of American imperialism with similar dignity and respect ever since the Agency's founding.[17] Police and prisons within the United States have been torturing for even longer.[18]
Now for the good news: The Bush administration, trying to shore up support for its military-trial procedures, has cabled US embassies with instructions that evidence obtained through torture will not be allowed. But evidence obtained through treatment considered "cruel, inhuman, and degrading" is to be allowed.[19]
George Bernard Shaw used three concepts to describe the positions of individuals in Nazi Germany: intelligence, decency, and Naziism. He argued that if a person was intelligent, and a Nazi, he was not decent. If he was decent and a Nazi, he was not intelligent. And if he was decent and intelligent, he was not a Nazi.
I suggest the reader make the obvious substitution: "Bush supporter" in place of "Nazi".
That oh-so-precious world where words have no meaning
In December, 1989, two days after bombing and invading the defenseless people of Panama, killing as many as a few thousand, President George H.W. Bush declared that his "heart goes out to the families of those who have died in Panama".[20] When a reporter asked him: "Was it really worth it to send people to their death for this? To get [Panamanian leader Manuel] Noriega?", Bush replied: "Every human life is precious, and yet I have to answer, yes, it has been worth it."[21]
A year later, preparing for his next crime against humanity, the invasion of Iraq, Bush, Sr. said: "People say to me: 'How many lives? How many lives can you expend?' Each one is precious."[22]
At the end of 2006, with Bush's son now president, White House spokesman Scott Stanzel, commenting about American deaths reaching 3,000 in Iraq, said Bush "believes that every life is precious and grieves for each one that is lost."[23]
In February 2008, with American deaths about to reach 4,000, and Iraqi deaths as many as a million or more, George W. Bush asserted: "When we lift our hearts to God, we're all equal in his sight. We're all equally precious. ... In prayer we grow in mercy and compassion. ... When we answer God's call to love a neighbor as ourselves, we enter into a deeper friendship with our fellow man."[24]
Inspired by such noble -- dare I say precious -- talk from their leaders, the American military machine likes to hire like-minded warriors. Here is Erik Prince, founder of the military contractor Blackwater, whose employees in Iraq kill people like others flick away a mosquito, in testimony before Congress: "Every life, whether American or Iraqi, is precious."[25]

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Statistics Canada's payrolls report for November showed a greater job loss than that reported in the agency's earlier Labour Force Survey.
Thursday's non-farm payroll employment data put the number of jobs lost in November at 33,000. Statistics Canada's revised figure from the Labour Force Survey, released on Wednesday, estimated the employment loss at 16,300.
Some analysts consider the Survey of Employment, Payrolls and Hours to be more accurate than the Labour Force Survey, since part of its data comes from direct payrolls data provided by the Canada Revenue Agency. Its main drawback is that the report comes out later.

text: I dont know if you have seen it, but i think its worth for discussing. This inspire 1 crashed after using the auto take off feature (wich i´ve heard caused at least another crash). This wasnt mi inspire (i recieved mine yesterday and ill be updating it tonight and flying on saturday,) anyway whats your opinion of the crash, im not like the best pilot out there but i dont see the need of the auto take off, i mean its when you take off when you start to feel how your copter is working. What do you think of the auto tak off feature i personally wont use it. Here´s the description of the crash video. "Last couple of flights not stable on auto take off - shimming and drifting. wanted to record if it drifted to send to dji to get settings changed or trouble shoot the issues as it crashed earlier in the am - but was fine 2 times after just a lot of shimming and bobbing in the desert in the open or in the subdivision of the house i was trying to film - we went out and checked everything recalibrated the compass again even though we hadn't moved - and this happened with no operator input just in auto take off mode To all the people who say I can't fly wrong I have dozens and dozens of flights -started with a phantom vision upgraded to a Guai 840h ground station you name it - i wanted to use the auto take off feature and learn the camera settings and do a house fly by for real estate the earlier auto take off had issues and the earlier flight the craft was drifting badly - the day before did 4 flights perfectly - the unit was calibrated and triple checked - hit the auto take off button and that's what you see. Maybe if you know anyone at DJI they could email me or call me to offer advice or have me send it in for a test? THIS WAS NOT OPERATOR ERROR - IF IT WAS I WOULD JUST GO BUY ANOTHER ONE! AND AVOID THE HUMILIATION So post here if you are also having any issues or fixes. I love my DJI Products and want to keep flying."

Having grown up in a military family, I have had the great pleasure of calling many places home including Virginia, California, Rhode Island, Florida, and even Germany! I am now doing my graduate studies on historical clarinets and historical performance practice at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Den Haag. After my Fulbright year, I hope to remain in Den Haag to complete my Master's Degree at the conservatoire where my research will be focussed on Transatlantic musical exchanges between Europe, North America, and the West Indies in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. My primary focus is performing on and understanding the historical predecessors to the modern Boehm and Oehler system clarinets that are used throughout the world today. I am honored to be here learning and making music with some of the world's finest musicians in the field. Please contact me at email@example.com is you would like to talk more.
Hallo, I'm Aria. I am from the wonderful state of Oregon, but I went to university in Santa Barbara, California at a small school called Westmont. I just completed two Bachelor's, one in Studio Art and one in Physics. Next year I will begin a PhD in Applied Physics in Boston, Massachusetts. I am currently researching in the Water Management department at The Delft University of Technology. My goal is to create powerful and flexible computer simulations of Managed Aquifer Recharge operations. I hope to be part of long-term, sustainable water solutions.

Hello! My name is Dan and I am from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In May 2016, I completed my bachelor's program in physics at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. I am now working towards my Masters degree in Applied Physics at TU Delft, and hope to return to the US to complete my Ph.D. in physics after my two years in the Netherlands. During my time at Georgetown, I spent a lot of time thinking about science and its role in society. I worked on a group project in which we directly lobbied congressional offices to support a renewable energy workforce bill and to increase National Science Foundation funding. TU Delft is a great place for me to continue exploring these intersectional issues, as it is an international scientific community reflecting many different experiences, perspectives, and priorities. I am happy to talk to your students about American politics and civics, the legislative process and the upcoming presidential election. In my free time I play a lot of guitar, both electric and acoustic, and am hoping to start a student jazz combo! You can contact me at email@example.com. I look forward to hearing from you!

Door de grote belangstelling kan het voorkomen dat de namen op dit deel van de website af en toe wijzigen. De reden is dat wij de studenten niet willen overbelasten met verzoeken te komen spreken. Om dezelfde reden kan per schooljaar slechts éénmaal een student worden uitgenodigd. Ook is het niet de bedoeling dat een school méér dan één student uitnodigt.

A fanatical birder blogging about Screech owls in owl box, backyard birding and wildlife in the Northeast USA.
Blue birds: deja vous
3 comments:
- Debbie said...
We used to have Blue birds every year, but in the last two or three, we have been battling English Sparrows. We are waging war this year and hopefully winning. We do have House Wrens in a couple places and Tree Swallows, who seem to be able to hold their own again the Sparrows.

Hi Debbie,
Yes, the Tree Swallows seem to be more tenacious and they just hang around until accommodation becomes available. Having said that, I didn't have any swallows last year because the Blue birds chased them off. This year I spread the space between the boxes a little and the Swallows have been able to breed, although they still get into pretty heavy battles with the Blue birds. I guess it just depends on the personality of the pair of birds that you get. Bear in mind that small birds generally have a very short life span 4-7 years) so we are constantly rotating birds in and out).
I have House Sparrows (just noticed them recently at the feeders), but for some strange reason they haven't ever tried to use any of the boxes. My in laws live around the corner and they have a constant battle evicting the sparrows. I hope the Sparrows don't start using the boxes because they will be evicted in short order. Keep trying for Blue birds, because you may get lucky and get a pair like my feisty ones!

Hey now, that's a shot at me, isn't it?
I'm so envious of your whole feeder/house situation, Owlman. In the summer, I have so much else to do that I must admit I leave the feeders empty most of the time.

Netanyahu OKs building 240 housing units in settlements
Details about new Israeli plans to build over 230 new homes for Jewish settlers in Arab east Jerusalem were emerged on Friday. The move to build some 240 new housing units in the settlement neighbourhoods of Pisgat Zeev and Ramot, was approved late on Thursday by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, AFP cited Israeli press sources as saying.
Israel's settlement watchdog Peace Now said the announcement was likely to further damage efforts to salvage Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations. "The fact is that someone -- either the housing minister or the prime minister -- is trying to make a point: they want to make it harder on peace efforts," Peace Now's Hagit Ofran told AFP.
"Such a decision is going to be a problem for the continuation of the talks and this is exactly what they were trying to achieve."

Worn-out tires pose a potential environmental disaster. Left alone in a landfill, they can take up to 50 to 80 years to decompose. However, most landfills don't want them. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 38 states have banned them. If not handled properly, rubber chemicals can leech into the groundwater. Luckily, there is a huge secondary market for scrap tires, much of it being used for fuel or recycled construction materials.
As useful as rubberized asphalt and rubber bark mulch is, they are nowhere near as pretty as these reborn chairs at the Tire Art Design studio in downtown Memphis, Tennessee. Artist Tad Pierson makes his funky furniture with abandoned tires, steel, commercial fishing nets, foam and hardware all sourced from local companies. The tires themselves are all found littering the streets and ditches of Memphis.
"I don't want to beat people over the head with my political dogma anymore," Pierson writes in the Artist's Manifesto on his Facebook page. "As I get older, my personal actions speak for my beliefs. I'm an environmentalist. I want to take direct action to save the planet. I make very comfortable chairs out of discarded tires that you see everyday glutting the landscape. This is my attempt to sweep up in my corner of the Universe."
"By purchasing a tire chair, you also are taking direct action in helping to clean up the environment. The rivers of America applaud your warrior stance," he adds.
While Pierson likes to paint his treads bright colors, fellow tire artist Young Ho Ji prefers to work in natural black.
Hailing from Korea, Yong Ho Ji specializes in creating tire animal "mutants," using different kinds of tires to represent different parts of the body. More flexible bicycle tires, for example, might be used to make faces. Automobile tires are used for necks and various treads are used to represent muscle groups.
Yong Ho Ji's portfolio is an impressive zoo including: jaguars, lions, tigers, wolves, bears, deers, bulls, rhinos, goats, zebras, spiders, horses, gorillas, sharks, hyenas and even hybrids between humans and various beasts. Perhaps because the roughness of the tires, all of his animals look like they have taken steroids.
Taking a more gentle look at the animal kingdom is Costa Rican artist Erian Herrera Quiros, who carves rainforest creatures out of discarded tires. The masterpiece below is a hanging toucan planter. You can see the rest of his amazing work here.
Although the toucans by Quiros and the bears by Ho Ji might not be replicable by untrained sculptors, creating recycled art is possible for every ability level. Beauty, of course, is in the eyes of the beholder. Check out the folk art tire frog shared below by the fun gardeners at "Two Women and a Hoe," a Michigan landscaping business.
If you'd like to make your very own Folk Art Frog planter, the Women have kindly shared how they did it here.
Happy recycling!
