Time for Illinois residents to start checking the pockets of their old jeans…
Spring is allegedly upon us, and with it, the season of music festivals commences! America's highways will be crowded once more with the telltale white 15-passenger vans pulling trailers covered in stupid stickers. Every spring, bands of sometimes-talented, sweaty, malnourished, 20-somethings (and the 40-somethings who are still interested in the shenanigans of the 20-somethings) take to the open road to prove their worth to performatively disinterested teenagers and soak in the ambiance of the plain states.
You might be asking yourself, "What the crap does this have to do with me? I'm an improviser!"
After a year on the road living in a van with a band, I have discovered a lot of common ground. Here are 6 ways improvising is a lot like touring with a band.
6. You don't traditionally "grocery shop."
Band Member: You've got no time to get groceries like a regular person and nowhere to prepare food but your lap (it's frowned upon to use the band's computer as a countertop I'M SORRY ABOUT THE MAYONNAISE). No matter how sweaty your thighs are on that pleather bench seat, they cannot properly bake a potato. This leads to optimistically reading the ingredients listed on a packet of Corn Nuts in search of nourishing elements like corn, or nuts (nope), and a belief that V8 and a Slim Jim is a well-rounded (Paleo!) meal.
Improviser: Your diet is a happenstance assemblage of found items, snacks procured at Walgreens where you went to buy a tie/pantyhose, and fast food outposts you've grown to hate ("brown rice, both kinds of beans, and no meat, please"). Any instance of you getting it together and actually making it to the Jewel is celebrated by binge-eating foods of interest on your way home from the Jewel and regrettably throwing away a ton of rotting vegetables a couple of weeks later.
5. You perform unspeakable acts of public restroom hygiene.
Band Member: Out on the open road, you've not only taken– but very much looked forward to– a bath in a McDonald's sink while your bandmate(s) stood guard outside the bathroom door. Those bottles rolling around on the floor of the van… are… lemonade. But we're saving them, so maybe just leave them alone and don't think about it.
Improviser: You've performed at least a couple (dozen) "too-far" acts of personal hygiene in the Piper's Alley bathroom. If you're a lady who hasn't been at least momentarily barefoot in there, I want to know your secret. You've also wondered who's allowed to use that shower in the Skybox faculty bathroom.
4. You've got to roll with the group's (bad) choices.
Band Member: Your bassist decided the tour would be a great time to try The Master Cleanse.
Improviser: A member of your Harold team is no longer going to smother his armpits in cancerous deodorant.
Both of the Above: Did you know that shampoo is actually totally unnecessary?! These people are your strange, chosen family. And like only family can, they make your life (smell) terrible and provoke some of the weirdest fights ever with their senseless personal choices.
3. Your destination is the loudest, most neurotic place on Earth.
Band Member: Rock concerts are loud, and musicians are often fragile wildflowers. Duh. But never is this more evident than at large festivals like Coachella, Bonnaroo or Lollapalooza. Meandering about any of these grounds is like trying to scale a wall of indecipherable sound shellac-attacked with slick, palpable desperation.
Improviser: Ask yourself, "Hmm, where in my improv journey have I encountered such an environment?" If you don't immediately answer "Piper's Alley. 4th floor," then you're the one doing "PLEASE GOD, SOMEBODY LOVE ME!" bits at an 11. WE NOTICED. Now knock it off.
2. You play ridiculous venues with zeal.
The Whole Band: Of COURSE we want to play a secret show in the dressing rooms at Urban Outfitters! Are you kidding me?! DREAM COME TRUE! This is why we traveled hundreds of miles in an un-airconditioned van with a tape deck!
The Whole Improv Team: Of COURSE we want to play a midnight, mid-week show at a bar in Humboldt Park! This is why we moved to Chicago! WE'RE DOING IT! Who's going to call their parents first?!
1. You're most comfortable when you're completely uncomfortable.
Band Member: From your wistful memories of really great van sleeping positions (the secret is to put your legs to sleep first, then fold them up in the seat belt and string 'em up like a ham) to firmly believing that peanut butter just tastes better when it's spread on a tortilla with a broken CD, you find that the comforts of home can't compete with your new longing for the discomforts that come with being a Legendary Road Dog (#pleasesomeonemakethisvideogame) in an almost-famous band.
Improviser: We, too, have become addicted to discomfort. It leads us to all of the best places! I started the scene by saying, "Hey mom, I hope it's okay that I brought a friend for dinner." And Nancy (the friend I was referring to) said, "Yeah! I'm Camille! I'm a chicken!" Was it uncomfortable? Yes, especially since I almost ruined my pants. Did it turn out that my chicken friend Camille sang a stirring song of longing culminating in being adopted into my family? Did the house unravel into crying laughter? Absolutely. Standing in front of strangers with no idea what we're going to do or say while deeply hoping that they will laugh at us is uncomfortable.
Both of the above: And it feels like home.

Legislator views samples of CMSD reform
The vice chairman of the Ohio House Education Committee visited Cleveland on Thursday and learned how CMSD is trying to change the District's culture, provide students and families with high-quality options and raise achievement at low performing schools.
State Rep. Andrew Brenner
, a Republican from Powell in Central Ohio, said he had intended to come for months but was spurred, in part, by a
recent Plain Dealer/cleveland.com editorial
that issued him an invitation.
Brenner drew criticism after he suggested privatizing struggling schools.
CMSD officials
showed him samples from a portfolio of school options available to parents, regardless of where they live. Schools that rival those in the suburbs, fill niches or follow creative strategies to improve.
Brenner watched as seniors at the
Cleveland School of Science Medicine
signed ceremonial letters of commitment
(read story, see video)
to the colleges and universities they will attend in the fall, including Ivy League institutions.
The school, one of three high performers that make up the John Hay Campus in University Circle, waived dress-code restrictions so the seniors could wear hooded sweatshirts promoting their colleges. Happy parents looked on as class President Kia Holt told her classmates to "wear your hoodie with pride."
John Hay's schools have admissions requirements, but District Chief Executive Officer Eric Gordon said the students had to keep working to reach this milestone.
"This school is different for one reason -- that reason is you," he told the seniors before they put pen to paper. "You are here today because of what you contribute to your education."
Next, Brenner toured
Washington Park Environmental Studies
, a career-technical center in the Slavic Village neighborhood. The school, equipped with what Principal Donald Strinka says is the largest school greenhouse in Ohio, specializes in horticulture/landscape design and animal science.
Strinka is recruiting students under the increased autonomy that
The Cleveland Plan
, CMSD's sweeping, state-approved blueprint for reform, extends to schools. Washington Park had 180 students as of Thursday, but 215 are enrolled for fall, and Strinka expects to add about 20 more.
Brenner's last stop was
Marion-Sterling PreK-8 School
at East 30 Street and Central Avenue. Marion-Sterling's struggles recently brought designation as one of CMSD's
Investment Schools
. The school is showing signs of progress even before beginning intensive, customized intervention.
Gordon, Brenner and others talked over a box lunch in the Marion-Sterling media center. The gathering included Colleen Grady, a former Strongsville and state school board member who now serves as education policy adviser to the House's Republican majority.
Gordon touched on various reforms under way throughout the District, like the
"wraparound" community services
being provided at Investment Schools.
With assistance from the United Way of Greater Cleveland and other agencies, outside providers are being enlisted to supply tutoring and social services that are tailored to each school and can help children overcome barriers to success. Gordon pointed to medical clinics at Mound K-8 STEM School and Lincoln-West High School, two of 20 that the MetroHealth System expects to eventually open.
Gordon said
The Cleveland Plan
's requirement that parents and caregivers have face-to-face contact with schools drew 70 percent of them to conferences, open houses and meetings in the first year.
He noted that he has scheduled meetings with parents who pushed back against changes in their schools and that an advisory committee of 250 high school students helps him keep tabs on concerns in their buildings.
Grady said she came away with the realization that CMSD is giving culture change and community support as much attention as academics.
The District seems to be making good progress on providing choices for families, Grady said. She said Cleveland also gives evidence that the state should avoid a one-size-fits-all approach in attempting to spread the wraparound concept.
Brenner, who has proposed a framework for wraparound schools, credited CMSD for "trying innovative ways" and for beginning to "take ownership" of its problems.
"They're trying to get the kids engaged, to get the community engaged," he said. "That's what they do in the suburbs. That will turn the schools around."

Hi everyone,
I'm looking to give our outsourced help-desk a way to reset AD passwords from a web-based app. Preferably I'd like to find a free app that requires authentication and doesn't have a limit on users. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Niagara Technology Group (NTG) is an IT service provider.
I have an even better idea... use what Windows has built in designed for this task ;)
Sep 12, 2009 at 1:17 UTC
Thanks for the reply. Certainly a step in the right direction I think. Never even heard of that function before.
The documentation I'm seeing so far talks about allowing users to change their own passwords. Does it also allow someone with elevated rights to look up a user and change their password?
Sep 12, 2009 at 1:21 UTC
Niagara Technology Group (NTG) is an IT service provider.
Oh sorry, I misunderstood, I thought that you wanted the users to reset their own. Now that I reread your question I see that that is not what you asked.
Hmmm... that's a bit more challenging. Most likely can be done in a similar way but I am not exaclty sure what would have to be changed.
Sep 12, 2009 at 1:44 UTC
Yeah, it looks like others have tried it but there is no real way to secure it outside of a domain. Thanks for the suggestion though.. :)
Sep 12, 2009 at 2:37 UTC
Here is a free program, I have never used it so I cannot speak to its functionality or quality. The free version evidently will allow you to manage up to 100 users.
Sep 12, 2009 at 5:35 UTC
Why not just set-up a machine with the admin toolkit installed and allow your outsourced helpdesk to remote desktop into it. As long as they have rights on the login they use in AD to access this machine they can reset passwords.
Sep 14, 2009 at 7:14 UTC
I've used the JiJiTechnologies program befores. Works ok, but each agent was limited to making only one password update per day as I recall.
Sep 14, 2009 at 7:52 UTC
Are they members of your Active Directory domain or is this an external company with no direct access to your network?
If they do have access and accounts in Active Directory you could use delegation. Here's more info:
As for a web-based app it is possible but it will require either a commercial app or writing your own code. A google search might help you with the first. As for writing your own here's some good info to get you started:
Sep 14, 2009 at 8:05 UTC
IT Journey, LLC is an IT service provider.
NameScape makes a product that allows for end users to update their Active Directory information (name, address, phone, etc). The password reset feature they have isn't free but is an option that you can get.

Why not just set-up a machine with the admin toolkit installed and allow your outsourced helpdesk to remote desktop into it. As long as they have rights on the login they use in AD to access this machine they can reset passwords.
Easiest way by far. As long as it doesn't violate business agreements, this is what I would do.
Create a limited account just for this purpose and give them AD rights to just change passwords. You can give them access to the DC itself. Just turn auditing on (if you haven't already) for peace of mind if you need to.
Sep 14, 2009 at 8:42 UTC
Thanks everyone. We are using remote desktop right now but we need more than two people able to be in it at the same time. I think we might set up a VPN in the short term and look at writing our own web-based app. No one wants to Spend money. :)
Sep 14, 2009 at 1:01 UTC
Scott - thanks for the tip on this...we have a need to do something like this for our users who don't log in interactively (shared account), but need to change their password for OWA access.
I know this isn't directly related to OP, but I wanted to say thanks nonetheless.
Wait. Aren't you traveling?
I've tweaked my page a little to flow with our visual style here (see attachment)
Regarding this: http://www.jijitechnologies.com/product/passwordreset/PasswordReset.html
I tried this out and while yes, it does work, it does limit you after a period of time to how many people can be administered by the password reset tool.

Just got back home. Takes roughly 20 hours to go from Osnabruck to Peekskill!

Not free, but Rove Mobile Admin allows for password resets and much more (server resets, changing AD information, managing Exchange, and lots more), either through a web interface or a mobile device. It does cost per admin that uses the system. May be cheaper than spending the hours programming it yourself.

It's that time of the year again. Not only is the holiday season quickly approaching but it is also the time that many federal contractors and subcontractors update their affirmative action plans (AAPs). If your company prepares AAPs on a calendar year, you should begin preparing for your 2015 AAP update.
In order to develop your annual report, you'll need to gather data that will be analyzed in the plan. Below are different types of data you'll need:
- Employees: This is a listing of your current employees at a point in time
- Hires: A list of employees hired in 2014
- Applicants (internal and external): Applicants who applied for positions filled in 2014
- Promotions: A list of all promotions that occurred in 2014
- Terminations: A list of all terminations for 2014
Additional information you should review and update as you prepare the AAP include:
- Targeted outreach and recruiting efforts
- EEO/Affirmative Action policy
- Ensure subcontracts and purchase orders contain EO Clause and specified language
- Ensure employment openings are listed with the appropriate state employment service
Additionally, you should ensure you have implemented the requirements of the regulation changes for protected veterans and individuals with disabilities:
- Provide applicants the opportunity to self-identify as an individual with a disability or a protected veteran. This solicitation should occur both pre-job offer and post-job offer. Data on applicants and hires must be reported in subsequent AAPs.
- Include utilization goals for individuals with disabilities. This seven percent goal will apply to each job group within your AAP. If you have fewer than 100 employees, you may set a goal for your workforce as a whole. Assessments on meeting these goals will occur in future AAPs.
- Include hiring benchmarks for protected veterans. The hiring benchmark data provided by the OFCCP is 7.2 percent. The hiring benchmark is set for the AAP location as a whole.
You'll also want to notify vendors and suppliers that your organization is an affirmative action employer and that because of that they may be covered by the affirmative action laws.
For more information on affirmative action and the recent changes within it, please be sure to sign up for our free one hour webinar Affirmative Action 101: The Basics on December 2, 2014.
For helpful tips and information on preparing your affirmative action plan, please sign up for our full day affirmative action program – AAP: What it Takes To Prepare a Compliant Affirmative Action Plan – scheduled for December 12, 2014.

An Estate Seller's Year in Review: Liquidation Earnings
As a coach, there are three questions I'm asked often about liquidation earnings and income:
- How much money can you make as an estate seller?
- What kind of revenue can you expect when you open an estate sale company?
- Can an estate liquidation business replace my full time job?
I always answer your questions and share the nitty gritty with you. So here is my real 2015 year in review. Yes, a case study of the real actual numbers from my estate sale business.
25 Estates and $218,228 in Gross Sale Revenues
In 2015, my estate sale company (Expert Estates LLC) handled 25 estates, how could I coach if I'm not out there holding sales too? I would quickly become out of touch with all the current trends and developments because the industry changes quickly.
My sale tally for the year is $218,228.69, with an average sale of $8,729.
This tally doesn't include sales from my store or online sales. Typically an estate liquidator doesn't have a store and may or may not also do sales on eBay and Etsy or other online sale venues, so I don't want to throw off the numbers.
Since our third baby girl was born in July this year, we had several weeks at a time occupied with family visits and without holding any sales. So this was actually a slower year for me than 2014. But it is an example of the kind of year you can have within one or two years of opening your estate sale business. The numbers are pretty close to my numbers for my second year in business. I was averaging about 2 sales each month. As you can see, there are months I did one sale or no sales, some I did three or four in a month. There were two estates that I did for two weekends each in 2015. Of course, even when I was traveling or when we had visitors, I still had to stay on top of incoming leads and handle consults. This is not a 4 hour work week, lifestyle industry. I do have supporting staff but your estate sale business won't run itself or provide passive income.
What Kinds of Estates and How Many Sale Days?
My heart is happy when I help as many people as possible, I take in large estates and small ones as well. Even people with a small estate can seek and need our help. But I am a business owner not a charity, I will take a small estate sale job as long as:
- The client seems easy to work with
- There is a benefit to helping them (I won't just break even or lose money)
- The seller agrees to a one day sale with a $1500 or $2000 minimum commission (depending on the labor that will be required)
- It is a good neighborhood where I can pick up new customers, grow my list and generate leads
- I have room in my calendar for the sale.
I do just a single day or a two day sale for smaller estates and I take those jobs only if they are going to be easy to set up involving little work. Small sales that require lots of organizing and cleaning are not worth the time invested. When there is too much work for a sale to be profitable, I will offer clean out and donation assistance to the client instead of an estate sale.
I typically do a three day sale but at times I hold a four day or a sale over two weekends. Every sale is unique and I customize the days and hours depending on what I think we need.
Best Sale Days
Our year round tally on our main sale days came out as follows:
- Friday $63,683.62
- Saturday $67,733.63
- Sunday $52,809.06
Typically when we had a three day Friday-Sunday sale, Saturday was our lowest sale day, but Saturday appears higher here due to holding an occasional Friday-Saturday or Saturday only sale. Once in a blue moon Saturday will beat out both Friday and Sunday - every sale is different.
My sales usually run 9am-3pm. Over all the years we have been open, generally (unless there is a weather issue keeping people home) no matter what time we open, the sales peak one hour after opening, they dip down at around 1pm and then surge up a bit again an hour before closing.
Commissions - The Real Scoop
We work on commission, the more we sell, the more we bring home in liquidation earnings.
If you have on average a 40% commission rate, this year's tally brings $87,291 in commissions.
At a 35% commission rate, it brings in $76,379.
My commission ranges between 35-50% once in a while I charge more if there is a lot of work or for other unusual circumstances.
For example, I charged a higher commission for an estate with a lot of good inventory but that had been owned by a smoker. We did get the smoke smell out, but I disclosed the smoking in my ads and charged less for the inventory to ensure sales, especially on the upholstered items. The commission should be higher to make up for the lower sale prices and all of the extra work to clean smoke odor and stains. And in 2014, I charged a 60% commission for a person who needed a last minute sale. Not only was it last minute, but also, I already had two sales booked for the only weekend the client could have the sale due to her closing date. Taking the job meant a very long workweek and required that I hire and train more staff. I explained what my commission would be normally for the sale and what I needed under the circumstance. They called me back the next day and agreed to the higher rate. Though that was a long week for me, I was earning more too.
The Cost of Doing Business
Our commission is not the end of the story, we have business expenses to factor in. Your liquidation earnings need to cover all of these expenses and leave you money as your take home pay. Some of these costs can be offset or billed back to your client - some sellers split or charge clients for expenses like:
- credit card processing,
- advertising
- labor.
Some sellers absorb them preferring billing with just commission. But a commission can't be one size fits all unless every sale you take requires the same work and yields about the same in revenue.
Here are the things to track and consider:
- Staffing
- Advertising
- Credit Card Processing Fees
- Cash Deposit (you'll go over the allowable amount for cash deposits, shop for the bank that lets you deposit the most cash each month for free)
- Other Banking Expenses
- Business License
- Promotional Materials
- Signs
- Supplies
- Insurance
- Bonding
- Mileage
- Equipment
- Software
- Web site
- Hosting
- Accounting
- Legal Fees
- Taxes
Additional Earnings
In addition to my commissions, I charge extra for add on services. This provides additional income and helps cover some of these expenses on many sales. I add on options and get entire jobs for liquidation related services such as:
- donation oversight,
- packing,
- full home cleaning,
- trash hauling
- written appraisal reports
- liquidation consulting.
I am really looking forward to another great year liquidating estates in 2016. For me, one of the things I love about being an estate seller is that I can adjust my schedule and work as often as I want. I can stay busy for a month or a year and then dial back the schedule if I want or need a break, a vacation, or just more quality family time.
If you aren't reaching your goals or if your liquidation business is not supporting the lifestyle you want yet, I would love to book a free discovery call with you to see if I can help you achieve success. You can get there on your own, but I'll share my tips, the exact steps to take and solutions that work when we work together. Get where you want to be now instead of learning by trial and error. What will things be like for you if you can achieve your goals now instead of years from now?

According to new research, many women who are diagnosed in their 40s with breast cancer, unfortunately lack knowledge as to what many well-known risk factors are for this disease. This can potentially add power to the debate as to whether or not preventative screening is necessary for this age group.
This surprising study discovered that few of the 136 women who were diagnosed with breast cancer after mammogram had a family history of the disease or dense breast tissue. Dense breast tissue or a family history is often one of the determining factors as to whether a woman between the ages of 40 and 49 is screened for cancer with a mammography.
Dr. Elissa Price stated that ìstrong family history was only present in 12% of the young women.î Dr. Price is the University of Californiaís Director of Clinical Breast Imaging Operations in San Francisco.
Dr. Price continued to state that ìonly 14% of those diagnosed had extremely dense breasts.î
If screening were limited to women who had risk factors, screening-detected cancers would be reduced by more than 75%, she stated.
Dr. Priceís findings were scheduled to be presented Tuesday to the Radiological Society of North America during their annual meeting held in Chicago. Typically, studies which are presented during medical meetings are viewed as preliminary until they become published in a peer reviewed journal of medicine.
Unfortunately, many women in their 40s receive conflicting advice regarding mammograms from varying organizations. The US Preventive Services Task Force released recommendations in 2009 that younger women in their 40s have conversations with with their doctors regarding the pros and cons of routinely scheduled mammograms. These recommendations take into account the situations of individual women, known risk factors, and their own personal values.
The beliefs of the task force were that the potential harm of screening, including false positives, far outweigh the benefits gained in younger women. This recommendation is currently under review and in the process of being updated.
The American Cancer Society, as well as many other organizations, are strongly recommending annual mammography screening for women who are at least at average risk, starting at age 40.
The American College of Radiology stated that the findings of this new research ìwould appear to echo previous evidence.î This previous evidence concluded that risk based screening would miss the vast majority of cancers.
Dr. Carol Lee, who is a spokeswoman for the American College of Radiology said that roughly 75% of women who are diagnosed with breast have no prior risk factors including family history.
A very strong family history basically means that someone has a direct relative (mother, daughter, or sister) who was diagnosed with breast cancer, prior to being age 50, Price stated.
If breasts are considered to be extremely dense or dense, then those risk factors will make detection by mammography much more difficult to detect.
This new study reviewed 136 different breast cancer patients who were diagnosed between 1997 and 2012 as the direct result of a mammography. The researchers stated that half of these cancers were invasive while the other half were noninvasive and early stage.
The cancersí hormone profiles were also evaluated in order to determine whether or not the cancers needed estrogen to grow. These hormone requiring cancers are known as ER-positive cancers.
This research goes to further support routine screening of younger women as more than 90% of them were known to have excellent survival rates, Price stated.

(202) 512-4800
GAO discussed the budget and management problems facing the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), focusing on the: (1) long-standing management deficiencies and HUD progress in addressing them; (2) problems in public and assisted housing programs; (3) challenges that HUD faces in restructuring its programs; and (4) questions that should be addressed in considering future housing and community development policies. GAO noted that: (1) HUD has long-standing management deficiencies including weak internal controls, an ineffective organizational structure, an insufficient mix of staff with the proper skills, and inadequate information and financial management systems; (2) HUD efforts to address its deficiencies are still in their early stages; (3) HUD needs to address public and assisted housing problems including minimization of mortgage loan defaults, backlogged housing rehabilitation needs, increased vacancy levels, declining tenant incomes, and spiraling costs of providing housing subsidies to lower-income families; (4) HUD has recently proposed a major change in its program delivery mechanisms through its Reinvention Blueprint, which requires major legislative changes and places more responsibilities on states and localities to implement programs and develop performance measures; and (5) questions that must be addressed in reexamining federal housing and community development policies include deciding which policies best meet the needs of the people HUD serves, how these policies should be implemented, and what levels of government should deliver program services.

Polygamist Jeffs Sentencing
August 9, 2011 by staff
Polygamist Jeffs Sentencing, Polygamist leader Warren Jeffs was sentenced to life in prison Tuesday for sexually assaulting two minors who had followers as brides in what his church considered "spiritual marriages."
The head of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints remained silent as the jury's decision was read Tuesday Texas. He received the maximum sentence in both cases.
Attorney Eric Nichols had asked the jury a sentence of life imprisonment, saying the case was "a process to protect people." The jury deliberated less than half an hour.
The Jeffs 55 years of age, which had insisted on acting as his own lawyer during the first part of the trial, was sentenced on Thursday. He left the sentencing phase in protest after reading a statement, which he said, was from God, promising a "whirlwind of trial" in the world if "humble servant" of God was not released.
During the trial, prosecutors used DNA evidence to prove Jeffs had a son with a girl of 15 years and played an audio recording of what it said was sexually assaulting a 12 years old. They played other movies in which Jeffs was heard instructing as much as a dozen young wives on how to please him sexually – and therefore, he said, God willing.
"If the world knew what he was doing, I would be hung from the tallest tree," Jeffs wrote in 2005, according to one of the thousands of pages of notes seized along with audio recordings of his ranch in Texas.
Jeffs claimed their religious rights were being violated. On behalf of himself after burning through seven high-powered lawyers, who routinely interrupted the proceedings and chose to be silent in front of the jury for nearly half an hour during his closing arguments. He called one witness for the defense, an elder of the church read from Mormon scripture.
The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a radical brand of Mormonism believes that the current that polygamy brings exaltation in heaven has over 10,000 followers who consider Jeffs became the mouthpiece of God on Earth.
He spent years evading arrest – crossing the country like a fugitive who finally made the FBI Ten Most Wanted before his capture in 2006, said prosecutor Eric Nichols.

Television journalist Alison Reynolds has been ousted from her job in Los Angeles in favor of a younger woman. In her mid-forties, Alison faces not only the end of a lucrative career, but the end of a ten-year marriage to a cheating studio executive. Escaping to Arizona, Alison begins blogging for therapy, and to help others deal with being cut loose--from marriages, jobs, life. Her writing soon touches a chord with many women, but threatening posts start to haunt her and the death of a friend may not be what it seems. When the woman who replaced her on TV is mysteriously murdered, Alison recognizes that she must find the killer before she is cut loose once and for all.

State Route 20 clean-up efforts to last through the weekend
RAINY PASS – A team of two dozen Washington State Department of Transportation maintenance workers and contractors are working to clear a six mile stretch of the North Cascades Highway (State Route 20) that was buried by a series of eight mudslides this past weekend.
With more rain in the forecast, crews are preparing for the possibility of additional landslides that could prolong the closure of the North Cascades Highway. Methow Valley-bound drivers should plan to take an alternate route at least until Monday, Aug. 19. WSDOT crews will continue working through the weekend and provide updates as information becomes available.
Assuming no new slides, WSDOT maintenance and contractor crews still have about 20 football field's worth of soil, boulders and trees to remove. Once the road is cleared, additional drainage work as well as guardrail and pavement repair must be completed before the road can be reopened to drivers.
Alternate route information
Drivers looking to head across the Cascades should use either US 2 Stevens Pass or Interstate 90 Snoqualmie Pass, and stay up to date on current conditions.
Heavy rain, hail and high winds caused eight mudslides between milepost 149 and 155, just west of Rainy Pass. Portions of the highway were buried in debris at depths ranging from 3 to 25 feet.

The One who created an icon
The One who created an icon
2016-03-16 - In April we are recording an interview with Max Barenbrug, the chief designer at Bugaboo. And we want YOU to ask the questions!
What would you ask the inventor of Bugaboo strollers?
Max Barenbrug is the co-founder of Bugaboo: the man who invented the first Bugaboo stroller in 1994, while he was still a student of the Design Academy in Eindhoven. This design was his university thesis – and it's been the prototype for every single Bugaboo stroller made ever since…
Max graduated with honors, but unlike his contemporaries he didn't go out and get himself a design job. Instead he sacrificed everything to work from a tiny attic space in Amsterdam, to try to turn his graduation project into a real product. Which he eventually did, with his friend and co-founder Eduard Zanen.
Max's perseverance and belief in his idea has turned Bugaboo from a sketch into a multinational company with more than a thousand employees, whose products are sold in over 50 countries, worldwide. More than that, his idea is now used by hundreds and thousands of parents all over the world.
- And guess what? Max still works at the office every single day, working on innovative new designs to help people move freely through their world.
Wouldn't you like to know how he did it? This is your chance to ask him your questions!
Send in your questions, with your name and where you are from to email@example.com

Park Plaza Hotels in Central London
Park Plaza Hotels Listed & Compared in Central London
View From Park Plaza Westminster Bridge
Park Plaza hotels in London are at the moment small in number but rapidly growing. Not so long ago there was just the Park Plaza at Victoria, just around the corner from Victoria Station.
4 & 5 Star
|Overview Of Market
In recent times four large modern Park Plaza hotels have been opened within a few minutes walk of each other by the River Thames opposite Westminster.
The odd Park Plaza hotel out in terms of location and building type is the Park Plaza Sherlock Holmes. This is a much older building acquired and upgraded on the other side of town to all the other Park Plaza hotels in London.
Three of the Park Plaza hotels, the Park Plaza County Hall, Park Plaza Westminster Bridge, Park Plaza Waterloo and Park Plaza Riverbank are all with a few minutes walk of each other. These hotels are all on the south bank of the River Thames close to the London Eye and Waterloo Station.
These hotels are very popular with people going on cruises out of Southampton with several direct trains each hour from Waterloo Station.
Not a traditional area for hotels, five or six large hotels have now opened in this area. You can walk across Westminster Bridge to Big Ben, Houses of Parliament into an area where many of London's sightseeing icons are located.

Text Field is greyed out after clicking complete in SafariAsked by ptimpone on February 04, 2015 at 12:25 PM
I am currently testing out JotForm for the institution I work for and have run into some issues.
The first is that I am using Apple Safari browser and I have noticed that after I add a text field and enter my information when I click the complete button instead of closing the text field down it gets grayed out and allows me to move the field on the form.The other issue is that I have test out the notification email function three times and I have not received an email yet.
Thanks in advance.

See examples of how to create random designs from manipulating and stretching the available parameters on a star object.
Take a small shape and easily duplicate it as lace trim around another larger shape. This is done in Path Effect Editor using "Interpolate Sub-Paths".
This is a different and unique way to turn text into an Path, and draw it along a curved line using the pencil or pen tools. The technique can also be used with any other shape, like stars, spirals, or your own creation.
Don't Stroke the Selection, Stroke the Path
This video shows you how take the selection of a circle (or square, text, or other shape) and draw the outline from that selection. First create a path from the selection, then remove the selection, and finish by stroking the path you created.

Ah OK thanks for clarifying Wayne. What I am hearing then is that the only way to solve the problem right now is to remove the javadoc plugin, correct? I can open a JIRA for this if there isn't already one out there. On Wed, Apr 10, 2013 at 10:25 AM, Wayne Fay <firstname.lastname@example.com> wrote: >> causing the problem.

You pulled an all-nighter on your latest project. You just got over a stomach bug. You've got the post-holiday back-to-work blues . For whatever reason, you're not at your best, and of all places you could be, you're at the office.
But just because you're not feeling 110%, doesn't mean you have to show it. I used to have a colleague who would say, "You look tired," any day I didn't take the time to put on mascara, let alone when I was actually dragging. Take it from me: It's much more effective to put in the time and effort to be (literally) bright-eyed than to hope no one will notice.
Read on for three ways you can make a great impression, no matter how you're really feeling.
1. Look the Part
You're exhausted, so the smartest thing you can do is snooze and catch a few more minutes of shut-eye, right? Not exactly.
Not only is it true that, "when you look good, you feel good," but when you look exhausted, it's more obvious than you may think. So, taking the time to pull yourself together—picking an outfit that you know earns you compliments, swiping on a bright lipstick—won't just make you smile, it will distract from your lackluster energy and help you make a pulled-together impression.
Need another pick-me-up after a draining lunch meeting? Keep an emergency kit in your desk (Visine included!).

2. Organize Your Task List Accordingly
When you look at your to-do list for the week, odds are there are some tasks that are second-nature and others that require you to marshal your resources and think strategically. Cut yourself a break, and if they're not deadline-specific, save the toughest projects for another day.
Pushing off the demanding tasks not only increases the likelihood that you'll get something done for the day, but also ensures you won't miss something that you would otherwise notice (when you're not feeling short on energy or focus).
Just make sure you're not using this an excuse to give yourself a light day each week: Pushing off the hard stuff should be the exception, not the rule.

3. Go for Thoughtful
Some days, lightening your load is just not an option. You have a major meeting, call, or presentation, and you need to be at your best. Now what?
Remember that there is more than one way to make a "good" impression. Sure, your preference may be to exude high energy and razor-sharp focus, but that doesn't mean you have to let low energy manifest as slow or disconnected.
Instead, focus on looking (and being) thoughtful. Allow yourself an extra moment to think before you speak—which will not only look professional, it'll help you avoid a knee-jerk, overtired response. Done the right way, taking an extra moment to catch up will come across as you taking an extra moment to think carefully and process.
Related: What to Say Instead of "I Don't Know"
No, you won't be your best 100% of the time. But there's no need to get a reputation as the colleague who's not bringing your A-game. Use these tips to look like getting through a tough week is no sweat (and then, seriously, go get some sleep).

As a junior on the football team, I've always been under the radar. It was always about the seniors. You know, guys and their egos; I'd asked the coach to give me a chance and let me in more games, but he just grunted a negative answer and let me play only a few minutes. What total bullshit...
Let me tell you about myself. My name is Brant. I'm 17, I have brown hair, blue eyes, and I've got a swimmer's build. After two years of doing swimming and football simultaneously, I've had a pretty awesome workout schedule. I've acquired one of those amazing bodies that people always want.
I'd joined the football team my freshman year to be like Jamie, the star. He was only a sophomore at the time, but his talent was simply astounding. Now, let me preface this by telling you that I didn't originally join the team to get closer to him so he'd notice me, or anything like that. I just wanted all the attention that he'd get. I knew I'd be just like him someday. He was so popular and he was unstoppable! He was about 6 foot 2, had short blonde hair, brilliant blue eyes, and one hell of a body. Perfect abs, perfect ass, perfect smile...
I think that's why I fell in love with him.
Anyway, back to my original story:
It was a sunny day at practice that afternoon. We were in good form. Everyone was in a great mood coming off our great win last week. Now, it was the day before our next game. It's a team tradition that we don't go all out before the big game, so we were standing in our athletic shorts and shoulderpads. Most of the guys weren't wearing shirts under their pads. Well, really I only noticed that one guy wasn't wearing a shirt under his: Jamie. My God, he looked amazing...the sweat glistened off of his abs.
The A-team offense was running drills and just preparing for the big game. Since I'm not on any regular offense, or defense for that matter, I wasn't really paying attention. Now, don't get me wrong, I love playing football and I'm really good at it. In fact, last Friday night I broke for over 80 yards and scored a touchdown. It helped us win the game. You think that matters? Apparently not.
Then, coach called for the B-team offense. I'm not even on that one...Jamie jogged over, took a cup of water, and drank. Him standing there in the sunlight was simply beautiful. I was standing there, lost in my own thoughts, when he turned around and looked at me. I let out a small gasp of excitement. He'd never even noticed me before, so when he started walking toward me I couldn't believe it. I turned to look back at the players on the field.
'Hey, Brant,' Jamie said.
'Hey, Jamie, how's it hangin?' I replied.
'You were the guy that ran that 80 yard touchdown last week, right?'
'Uh, yeah. That was me.'
My heart was racing at this point.
'Cool. That was pretty awesome.'
'Uh, thanks.'
My heart was pounding so hard I thought my chest would explode. We stood there, not saying anything for a few moments, watching our teammates run plays. Even though we weren't speaking, he didn't walk away. Soon, he spoke again:
'So, what are you doing tomorrow night?'
'Uh, well, I'm not really sure yet. Why?' I responded, hoping he couldn't here the desperation in my voice.
'Well, I'm having a party at my house tomorrow night, and it's for awesome players. My parents will be out of town, so my cousin's gonna buy us a keg and some other stuff to drink. Wanna come?'
'Well, yeah, okay.'
I was simply amazed. I was extremely nervous, and excited. One of Jamie's parties? They were legendary. As Jamie began explaining how to get to his house, I was just staring at his beautiful mouth and how it worked. Neither of us even noticed the team get called in to take a knee. Unfortunately, coach noticed...
'Hey, Beckman, Nemes, get over here and take a knee with the rest of your team!'
'Shit,' Jamie responded. 'Look's like we're in trouble.'
We ran in and took a knee with our teammates, who weren't even looking at us. I was just glad they hadn't noticed how I was looking at Jamie, or the bulge in my pants for that matter. I didn't hear a word coach was saying. He could have been talking about how to do the Hokey Pokey for all I knew. My mind was miles away.
After we were told to hit the showers, Coach called Jamie and I over:
'So, you boys thought that you'd just have a conversation by yourselves, did you?'
'Well, we didn't realize we were that close to the end of practice,' Jamie said. He spoke forcefully, but with enough respect so Coach couldn't tell.
'You watch your tone, Mister!' Coach yelled, inches from Jamie's face. 'I am your superior, and I deserve respect. You think you're hot shit, don't you Mr. Nemes?'
Jamie didn't dare answer. Coach Kiebach had never talked to Jamie that way. They'd always been close.
'You both need to run three laps around the field. Right now.'
Coach stormed off the field, leaving Jamie and I standing in shock. I was mad at myself for getting him into trouble. Jamie looked sideways at me, his eyes shining with tears, and said, 'Let's get goin.'
He started running immediately. I watched him running for a few moments, wondering why he was close to tears, and then realized that I needed to get going too. The sun was going down, and I still had homework to do. Jamie stayed ahead of me the whole time, but then again, he's a year older than I am and he's had more practice. He finished before I did, and I half expected him to wait for me. But, when he finished, he just went right for the locker room.
'Shit,' I said aloud. I knew he was pissed at me. I'd may as well just forget everything right then. I was finished with my laps as the sun was almost down.
I walked into the locker room feeling almost depressed. I know, it sounds weird, and a little creepy, but let's face it: I loved the guy. So, leave me alone here, okay?
The locker room was deserted. The coaches were even gone. 'Damn, that was quick,' I said aloud to myself. It was strange. Normally guys stay around, talking about girls, horsing around, etc. I walked into the sophomore/junior locker room and took off my shoulderpads. Although it had been an easy practice, my t-shirt was stuck to my skin with sweat. I pulled my t-shirt off with gusto, and tossed it into my bag. I pulled off my shorts and tossed them in as well. Standing in my jockstrap, I checked myself out in the mirror. My abs glistened in sweat, my biceps had come to a nice round shape. I was happy with the way my body had ended up. But, I was still worried about Jamie. I was so upset with myself that I was tempted just to leave then and there, and not even shower. I was so deep in my own thoughts that when I heard a noise from the other room, I jumped about a foot in the air.
Standing there, alone, in only my jockstrap, I was terrified. I began to walk noiselessly toward the senior locker room, not knowing what to expect. I looked into the smaller locker room, and could see a bag, sitting on a bench in the middle of the room. Then, I realized how stupid I must look: standing there in just my jock peeking around a corner. I was about to walk away and just leave, when the shower turned on. I realized that Jamie must still be here, showering. As tempted as I was to look, I knew that if he saw me here in my jock, catching a glimpse of him naked in the shower, he'd beat the shit out of me. I tried to make a quiet exit, but I tripped over a water cooler, sprawling myself out on the ground, and making one hell of a racket.
'Who's there?' I heard Jamie's voice cry out.
I was tempted just to leave forget the whole thing ever happened, when Jamie came around the corner, naked as a jaybird. He saw me there, on the ground, and in my jock. I wanted to just die.
[now, as a side note here, I should just tell you that Jamie was built all the way down...if you know what I mean. I just thought you should know...]
'Brant? What are you doing?' Jamie sounded just, appalled.
'Uh, I was just heading back from the bathroom and tripped over this stupid water cooler,' I lied quickly. As I stared up at him, I could feel my own prick rising steadily. I really hoped that he couldn't see it. I noticed that his eyes kept going over my body as well, but I didn't think twice about it, although his cock was at full attention already.
'Brant, the bathroom's on the other side of your locker room,' he said, slowly. 'You sure you didn't come over here for another reason?'
Oh God, I couldn't tell him the real reason, could I? Wait a minute, the real reason was different from the motive I currently had.
'Alright, fine,' I said with more confidence. 'I was checking on a noise I heard over here. I didn't realize anyone else was still here.'
'Oh, did I scare you?' he said, with a wry smile.
'Actually, yeah. You kind of did.'
'Huh, I've never really scared anyone before,' he laughed a bit. 'You sure that's the real reason you're spying on me in the locker room?'
'Well, I...uh...' I stammered.
'Brant, it's okay. I understand. You really were checking on a noise. I'll admit, I was being noisy. I'm a little pissed off.'
'Yeah, I'm sorry about that. I got you in trouble, didn't I?' I was hoping that he'd say no.
'No, you didn't,' he replied.
'Actually,' he continued, 'I've been expecting Coach to yell at me for awhile now. Yeah, I'm still a good player, but we've been arguing a lot. Everything I do around here is gold, and I'm sick of living up to expectations that not even I can live up to anymore. People expect so much of me.'
Jamie was almost dry now, though there were a few drops of water sticking to his pecs. God, he was so beautiful.
'Well,' I began, 'I'm sorry I've disturbed you, and I'm sorry that people expect so much of you. I'll go now.'
'Here.' Jamie was offering his hand to help me up. I grabbed it, and he yanked me to my feet. But he didn't let go of my hand.
'Hey, what's the big deal?' I asked.
He didn't say a word. He pulled me close to him, and kissed me. I had never been kissed before, and I was about ready to explode. My cock was full up, and I was in such shock, that I pulled myself away. Jamie looked at me, fear in his eyes.
'Why did you do that?' I asked.
'Because I knew you wouldn't. I've been wanting you since you made the team.'
At that moment, I knew that he wasn't kidding. I reached back up and kissed him, even more passionately than before. He opened his mouth and our tongues met, and it was pure and simple bliss. It was then, that he pulled back, looked at me with pure adoration, and then picked me up. It was as if I weighed nothing! He was so strong and beautiful. He took me into the shower, and put me down. He got down on his knees, and took off my jockstrap slowly, and sensually. My cock bounced up and down after the white fabric had come down. He looked at it with lust in his eyes. It was then, when I knelt in front of him, and we kissed again. We were both shaking with anticipation and anxiety.
Jamie then stood up, so his cock was right in my face, standing at a full 8 inches. I began licking the head of his shaft. He uttered a moan of pleasure, and I knew I was doing a good job. I took his full length in my mouth next, and then he held the back of my head down and pushed back and forth. It was wonderful, doing what I had only dreamed of for so long. It didn't take much longer after that. I sat there on my knees, taking his cock in and out while stroking my own. Jamie began fucking my face, and soon he was moaning constantly.
'Ooh, I'm gonna cum!' he screamed.
Not long after, he released. It was wonderful! I took it all, down my throat, and didn't even care! I looked up at him, and he was in Heaven. I could tell. Soon after, I felt the pleasure rising up in my lower region, and I exploded all over the shower wall. I was amazed at how much came out, but I then realized that this was the best I've felt in my entire life. It was a good solid two minutes before either of us spoke. Jamie collapsed beside me.
'Holy shit, dude!' he exclaimed.
'I know.'
'You ever done that before?'
'Nope, not at all.'
'You are amazing. Pure and simple.'
He then looked at me with a strange look in his eye. It was as if he was in love with me, or something. I'd never seen a look like that in a guy's eyes before, and it was toward me! Me! Can you believe it?
'So, I know this is strange and all, but can you not, like, tell anyone about this?'
He sounded strange, as if he was proud of what he'd just done, but unsure at the same time.
'I won't tell a soul, I swear,' I whispered into his ear. 'You think I want anyone else to have you?'
For some reason, I was feeling very confident.
'Ooh, I like that attitude, sir. Very much so.'
And he kissed me again. I was really falling for this guy!
He then stood up, turned off the shower, and went to get dressed. I did the same thing, only I was in another locker room, left with the memories of what had just happened. I put on my boxers, jeans, and hoodie with a gigantic smile on my face, and I knew that it'd be there for a few days.
As I was putting stuff into my bag, Jamie came into the room, also smiling. God, he looked fantastic in his letter jacket.
'Hey you,' he said.
'So, you still coming over tomorrow night?'
'Sure, if you want me there.'
'Are you kidding me? Of course I want you there. Only now, I want you to spend the night.'
Oh, really? And why would you want me to do that?' I asked with a smirk.
'Because I wanna go further with you. See what everything else is like. We have something special, and I'd like to see if this feeling continues.'
'Okay. I'll be there!' I responded with a smile.
We stood there for a few more seconds, and then he walked over and kissed me again. He really meant this one. He backed away, and it took everything I had to stop. He was getting ready to walk out the door when he turned back to look at me, that same look in his eye.
'Tomorrow night is for you,' he said.
'What do you mean?' I asked.
'Well, whenever I do something, score, get a first down, it's gonna be for you.'
He made like he was going to kiss me again, pulling my chin in his strong hand toward his face, and left it there for a moment, our lips hovering close...
And with that, he walked out the door.
'Wow,' I exclaimed.
I knew that this was going to be a great ride. I was enamoured with Jamie, and it seemed like he was with me as well.
Only time would tell.

American Civil Procedure: An Introduction
Yale University Press, 1995 - Law - 230 pages
From divorce proceedings to personal injury disputes to lawsuits over busing, affirmative action, and labor relations, most conflicts in American society may eventually find their way into a courtroom. Such civil conflicts, which do not involve violations of the criminal code, encompass both actions between private parties and public controversies.
This clear and direct book by two distinguished professors of law describes and analyzes civil litigation in the United States. Geoffrey C. Hazard, Jr., and Michele Taruffo discuss both specific details and broader themes of American civil litigation, explaining (without legalese) jury trial, the adversary system, the power of courts to make law as well as to "declare" it, and the role of civil justice in government and in the resolution of controversial social issues. Hazard and Taruffo examine the stages of civil procedure, including the lawyers' role in: preparing and presenting cases; the pretrial, pleading and discovery, trial, and appeal process; and procedural variations. They explore the historical evolution of common law and procedure and compare American civil procedure with that in other modern societies in Europe, Latin America, and Japan. They conclude by discussing the economic, political, and moral constraints on litigation, possible innovations to the process, and the political significance of public access to civil justice.

Kissed By a Fat Waitress(2008)
A collection of poems by Dan Fante
In the not-so-gentle hands of Dan Fante, this book of new poetry is more akin to surgery or the body shop than to the techniques of music and painting. Fante excises whole slices of life and lays them bare for us in inspect. Pain and self-mocking humor are the writer's tools here. He pries open and exposes his heart with the kindness of a hammer or crowbar. Indeed, what could be more ego-sizing than to have all pretense flattened, laying bare the raw self underneath?

- Concrete is poetry in which the typographical arrangement of words is as important in conveying the intended effect as the conventional elements of the poem, such as meaning of words, rhythm, rhyme, and so on. It is sometimes known to as visual poetry, a term that has evolved to have distinct meaning of its own, but which shares the distinction of being poetry in which the visual aspects are as important as the text itself. The term used for this poems seems modern but the idea of using letter in certain arrangements to enhance the meaning of a poem is an old one. It is believed that this style of poetry found its origin in Greek Alexandria during the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC. People being creative, designed the patterns as decoration for religious art-works, including wing-, axe- and altar-shaped poems to enhance their believes. Another precursor to concrete poetry is Micrography, a technique for creating visual images by Hebrew-speaking artists who create pictures using tiny arrangements of Biblical texts organized usually on paper in images which illustrate the text used.
- It is a long tail, certainly, ...but why do you call it sad?" And she kept on puzzling about it while the Mouse was speaking, so that her idea of the tale was something like this:—

Wow Susancnw - thanks for the comprehensive list. And thanks to everyone! I picked up one by Jacqueline Winspear and will try that next. I've joined 2 mystery book clubs in NYC. Fun! We read the mystery and then have dinner in a related restaurant - for example if the book is a Chinese mystery we eat in a Chinese restaurant. Unfortunately, I still can't swallow well, so I can't really eat in restaurants yet. I order food and kind of nibble tiny bits and push it around. But the people are fun and friendly and its very enjoyable.

This chart proves that the geriatric actress Betty White is a central focal point for every major science-fiction movie franchise ever made. Imagine a world without Betty White. We wouldn't have Alien, Transformers or Star Trek. Star Wars wouldn't exist and Avatar would be missing two major actors. Truly a sad world. Thank you Betty White for uniting and bringing us the world of science-fiction.
