3-month suspension for cityÆs RTA projects
In the wake of a Pikes Peak Rural Transportation Authority (RTA) vote Dec. 9, the Colorado Springs Engineering Division has eliminated 13 staff positions and is
ōcompetitively selecting a private-sector consulting firm to manage its PPRTA capital projects,ö according to city spokesperson Sue Skiffington-Blumberg.
In the meantime, the financially strapped city is ōtemporarily suspendingö its RTA transportation projects, she said. The delay is expected to last about three months. That's the time needed ōto go through the RFP [request for proposals] process and hire a firm,ö Blumberg elaborated. ōSo mid-March to late March is the target.ö
The city's list of projects on hold includes two Westside safety projects at Highway 24 intersections: at 21st Street (which was to have started in late 2009) and at 26th Street (2011).
An RTA board majority, believing the agency's administrative costs should not be expanded, narrowly rejected a request Dec. 9 that the RTA pay the city's roughly $1.2 million RTA-related project-management costs in 2010. With the city no longer able to cover that expense from its general fund because of budget cuts, City Engineer Cam McNair advocated continued use of his staff as the most cost-effective RTA strategy. Otherwise, he said the job losses and project delays would occur.
Project managers work with contractors on such issues as budgets, schedules, communications, permits, legalities and technical specifications.
A list of suspended projects citywide also includes Proby Parkway, Austin Bluffs Corridor (Nevada Avenue to Academy Boulevard and Barnes Road to Old Farm Drive), Fillmore and El Paso streets intersection, Vincent Drive Bridge at Cottonwood Creek, Vincent Drive Extension and Hancock Avenue Bridge at Templeton Gap Floodway. Others are safety projects at Platte Avenue (between Hancock Avenue and Union Boulevard), the Eighth Street/Arcturus Drive/Ramona Avenue intersection and the Las Vegas and Royer streets railroad crossing.
The RTA project suspension does not affect the Woodmen Road project since the majority of that funding is from the federal stimulus program, the release states.
The RTA is funded by a 1 percent sales tax that was approved by voters in 2004.

wow that looks like a 1966 Introduction to Decimal Currency scarf, note the 50c pieces were originally ROUND (AND real silver).!

...on the 14 day of february 1966!
Do you remember the decimal currency song??
- April 25, 2011 at 7:40 PM
It was sung to the tune of Click Go The Shears.
The Decimal Change Over Song:
In come the dollars and in come the cents
To replace the pounds and the shillings and the pence
Be prepared for change when the coins begin to mix
On the fourteenth of February 1966.
Clink go the coins, clink, clink, clink
Change over day is closer than you think
Learn the value of the coins and the way that they appear
And things will be much smoother when the decimal point is here.
In come the dollars and in come the cents
To replace the pounds and the shillings and the pence
Be prepared folks when the coins begin to mix
On the fourteenth of February 1966.

I'm so with you, Anon x 2... the people involved in this blog know about everything!! (Not like me, with my Ken Done one-track 1980s mind...)
Lyndel: I'm not worthy... I just thought the designer of the scarf was taking the 'easy' route with a round 50c!! You are so *smart* :-)
Anon x 1 and James: That song! Hilarious! Well, almost as hilarious as wearing Ken Done for 300+ days ;-)

From the sudden explosion of hub bub on my Twitter and WordPress feeds I have reached the conclusion that Blizzard has just released their Warlords of Draenorpre-expansion patch on the live servers.
I have not talked about Warcraft in a while, and certain not as much as I used to, since I have cancelled my subscription little more than a year ago. To celebrate this patch going live I decided to revisit some of my favorite WoW news sites, sit down, and read through the most recent patch notes to see what has changed. After reading them all I understand almost none of it. So much stuff has changed since I left, and so much of this patch has changed that changed content that it feels like going back to my old High school, I know the basic layout, but so tiny subtle things has changed, and all the people I knew moved on that it is completely different place compared to when I used to attend. I do understand that the ancient WoW player character models did get a revamp and the fire Mages did receive a buff to their spells so Patch 6.0.2 have earned my approval.
I did read up on the Blizzard's traditional pre-expansion event to entertain and excite the players between now and actual expansion drops. After skimming through the videos and I will say that Blizzard has learned from their butchered Mists of Pandaria pre-expansion content with an actual in-game event with quests, story, and a special dungeon that actually takes place in the virtual world and does not exclusively resides in one little scenario queue. (Be MOP #110)
I also read that Blizzard has rolled the Mists of Pandaria expansion pack into it's basic game which is, i believe, the quickest Blizzard has ever rolled their past expansion into the main game. Which is really big of them, nothing more to say there but hats off to Blizzard for that move.
I would also use this time to give my thoughts about the next expansion on a whole but because I have been out of the WoW news loop for months I have no idea where to start. Should I talk about the main plot, the player stat change, the change in Blizzard's game direction? I just do not know. Although I will say that while I was reading through the patch notes now there was a part of me that was making a mental note of all the World of Warcraft/Be MOP posts I could write between the now and when the actual expansion goes live. I did not keep an official count, but I know that was so potential blogging content there that was there could have lasted me months.
As I mentioned in my most recent World of Warcraft post, Be MOP #375, there is nothing in this expansion or in the next one that will ever bring me to Azeroth from a combination of a lack of a social network or guild to go back to and I have moved on from World of Warcraft to greater things in life. But I will always remember the adventures, the fun, and the gaming, writing, and communication skills I picked up along the way with Blizzard and WoW.
Find me on Google+ for updates on this blog
Be MOP focuses on the world of videogames with my own reflections about the current news and developments that happens throughout the gaming industry. Updates Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays

The same works for enblend. I don't have an answer for you, unfortunately. I just thought I would mention that in general programs running under Wine can execute additional programs with no problem. I use an engineering program, where a GUI frontend executes a series of separate executables. And the gui sends and receives data from the programs via pipes. The difference from your example is that my program does not open terminal windows to do that. So I am guessing that your program is trying to run cmd.exe, and probably does not find it. I believe there is a Wine equivalent to that somewhere, though I am not sure what it is. So probably there needs to be a way, when a program tries to execute cmd.exe, to run the Wine equivalent.

As the latest version of a possible Packers' dynasty continues to expand, coach Mike McCarthy could be sprouting a coaching tree.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Tulane has interest in offensive coordinator Joe Philbin.
Philbin, as Schefter explains it, may be more interested in waiting for possible NFL opportunities. But given the league rules regarding hires made from other coaching staffs, Philbin will be tied to the Packers until the 2011 season ends.
Then there's the fact that McCarthy generally is perceived as being the catalyst of the offense, with the rest of the coaching staff on the offensive side of the ball getting less credit for the team's success.
Philbin joined the Packers in 2003, as assistant offensive line coach. He was retained when McCarthy arrived in 2006, and McCarthy promoted Philbin to offensive coordinator in 2007.

The two Virginia Beach plastic surgeons combined their focus and experience to offer returning and new patients a wide range of minimally invasive treatments and plastic surgery procedures in Virginia Beach
VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA--(Marketwired - December 01, 2016) - For more than a decade, Dr. Ben Hugo has headed up the patient-focused staff at Ben Hugo Plastic Surgery. Virginia Beach-area patients have come to know his practice as a welcoming and efficient home for a range of cosmetic services, including noninvasive CoolSculpting®, minimally invasive BOTOX® injections, and such surgical options as facelifts, liposuction, and breast augmentation. As of August and September, patients have been finding that they now have even more choices, all of which continue to be based on the foundation of quality medical care and compassion originally established by Dr. Hugo.
Dr. JoAnne Lopes of Virginia Beach's Cosmetic Surgery Center is bringing her particular skills, experience, and focus to the practice, offering a woman's perspective of aesthetics coupled with an accomplished and board-certified plastic surgeon's rigorous education and training, as well as years spent building and growing her own practice.
Like Dr. Hugo, Dr. Lopes emphasizes the human side of plastic surgery, working to ensure patients are informed and feel heard and understood throughout the entire process, from setting up the consultation to follow-up care. While she is well versed in surgical techniques for the body, breasts, and face, she also has a particular interest in skin care and health.
Together, the doctors are writing a new chapter at Ben Hugo Plastic Surgery for all of Virginia Beach and beyond. Longtime patients of Dr. Hugo's will continue to interact with familiar and knowledgeable staff they feel comfortable with and trust, and will also benefit from the fresh perspective, techniques, and talent Dr. Lopes provides. Now, they are operating together under the name Cosmetic Surgery Center.
Dr. Lopes graduated from Eastern Virginia Medical School, then performed her internship and residency in general surgery at University of Connecticut. Her fellowship at Medical College of Virginia focused on plastic surgery, while a subsequent fellowship at Eastern Virginia Medical School focused on cosmetic. She is licensed in the states of Maryland and Virginia, is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, and is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, an active member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, and more.
She opened her own practice at the Cosmetic Surgery Center in Virginia Beach in 2001.
Dr. Hugo attended medical school in Cape Town, South Africa; had his general surgery training in South Africa, England, and Scotland; and had his plastic surgery training in South Africa, London, and Pennsylvania. He has certifications and memberships with about a dozen boards, colleges, societies, and associations across three continents.
Contact Dr. Ben Hugo and Dr. JoAnne Lopes to learn more about their new approach to cosmetic treatments and plastic surgery in Virginia Beach. Visit benhugo.com or call the Cosmetic Surgery Center at (757) 496-4801.

A sign on one of the bedroom doors at the home of Rex and Vernolis Siebert of rural Marion reads, "This place is a zoo. Enter at your own risk."
On the other side of the door is a roomful of many sizes of stuffed bears and a variety of bear décor.
Vernolis said her collection began at least 40 years ago when Rex bought her a Snuggles bear. Since then, the collection has grown to more than 500. Some were gifts from friends and relatives; others were purchased by the Sieberts themselves.
"I'd see one I loved, and I had to buy it," she said.
The collection includes a musical, animated cowboy, a limited-edition Disneyland bear, Smokey the Bear, and bears for every holiday. A girl bear and boy bear have their own framed birth certificates. The smallest bear is less than a ½-inch tall.
The bear theme carries over into many other forms, such as a wall hanging, throws, pillows, quilts, and a lamp. Even the light switch has a bear-themed faceplate.
Vernolis' grandson, Laramie Siebert, a military man, gave her a soldier boy wearing camouflage, which means a lot to her.
Another favorite is a bear-head wall plate fashioned out of wood pieces. A friend created it.
"I cherish that," she said.
Two singing bears given to her by daughter Linda Campbell of Salina are also special.
"You just don't see them anywhere," she said.
The bedroom holding her collection is her favorite room in the house. At 93, she has given a lot of thought to what will happen to her collection after she is gone. She said she has decided to pass it on to the couple's two little great-grandchildren. Their mother, Laramie's wife Alea, has an interest in it, and Vernolis is confident she will preserve it for them.
"What they do with the bears after that I won't know about," she said, smiling.

What is a Psychic?
July 10, 2013
Share it now!
A psychic is someone who can perceive information that one is not usually aware of through the normal senses. This is sometimes called extra sensory perception. A psychic will tune into an energy of an object or a person and will intuitively be able to explain or read that energy. It is quite different to mediumship where the information will usually come from the realm of spirit where a psychics information will usually be coming from their own intuition, thoughts and feelings. There are many people in the world who are quite psychic and don't actually know it. They usually get thoughts or feeling when something bad is about to happen, they can tell when someone is telling lies to them or sometimes they can always feel what mood a person is in when they are around them.
There are people who do realize there gifts and develop them on a regular basis. They also sometimes use them to make money and devote their life to being "spiritual councilors". Many people get much help from psychic's as they can sometimes pick up on any negative situations they are going through and intuitively point them in the right direction.
The word psychic is derived from the Greek word for soul, there are many critics for modern day psychics as it is hard to prove in modern day science.
Famous psychic's include Uri Geller who is said to have worked for the US government in top secret operations. The US government have done much research into the psychic phenomenon, some that we know and some that we don't.
Psychics are not always mediums, most mediums are psychics's. What is a medium?

My innocence died with him. I don't know if that's something I should be happy about. Sometimes I feel grateful...coz nobody can now make a fool out of me. I can read people like books. I know their every intention. And I am extremely careful not to let them play with my emotions or take advantage of me. And when I see them taking advantage of someone, I try my best to protect them. People here are amazing. Sometimes I feel it's not a Bschool but a Dschool (Drama School :D ) with so many drama queens, drama kings and attention seekers, having an amazing talent.
But there are also some innocent ones, who are being exploited to the level that leaves nothing in them, who do not see anything beyond the superficial. Can't blame them. They just don't realize. Who their true friends are! I feel I should give up and let them realize on their own. After all, I did not believe when I was warned. Maybe that's the most wonderful thing about relationships. They don't come with a Danger sign. Your heart just chooses one and tells you – THAT should be your best friend or boyfriend or girlfriend. Then there could be circumstances that would make curse your heart for making the wrong choice.
Today I am missing my innocence. The way I used to trust people with no strings attached. Not thinking and analysing every word that comes out of their mouth. Just loving, loving and loving :(
P.S: In the whole post, I might be talking about one person. :P

4Pure: Inspired by the Journey
My life is rooted deeply in the trees. Born in the bustling city of Mississauga, Canada, my childhood adventures in fact unfolded beneath the Maine sky, set against a backdrop of mountains frosted with trees. Chasing streams that fed into stunning lakes, surrounded by majestic woodlands and wildlife, I was blessed to observe and to absorb the world unbound by walls.
My hometown was part of the thriving paper industry, and my family was an earnest force in the regional machine. For over four decades, my grandfather was an Electrical Engineer at Great Northern Paper Company, while my father owned and operated a timber-harvesting operation. Growing up, I watched vast acres of land stripped bare of their wood to feed the demand for paper pulp. Even as a boy, I felt torn by a loss I couldn't quite place — the trees were my private playground, my sanctuary; and yet, their destruction was the lifeblood of so many American families.
Over the years, the majority of Maine's paper mills have been shut down, and environmental awareness has filtered into mainstream conversation. I've found my own perspective about the environment evolved as well. New career experiences and insightful colleagues have challenged me to consider my own power to influence the future of nature's fragile resources.
In 2005, I entered the beverage industry and cut my teeth on spring water. As I educated myself on the manufacturing standards of Big Food, I was shocked by the prevalence of chemicals, coloring agents and modified food ingredients used in everyday foods across every category. In 2011, I created the first reduced-sugar juice in the USA catered to kids and the public school system. Always hungry to shift the status quo, I continued to study the beverage set for gaps. I've always been drawn to the inviting nostalgia of real lemonade — unfussy, affordable, an American classic. Researching the competitive landscape, I found dozens of nutrition panels laced with high fructose corn syrup, dyes, stabilizers, artificial flavors and preservatives; all pale imitations of the tangy treat my mother made for three thirsty, growing boys.

The pool at the Gansevoort Hotel is unknown by few New Yorkers, but actually getting your name on the list and past the pool doorman is the caveat. This rooftop pool is the mother of them all and unless you're the requisite hotel guest, being someone or knowing someone is your only chance of lounging at the top. At one point, my ultra-bronzed Manhattanite neighbor (who comes here when she is so over The Hamptons) asked me, "Who do you know to get you in?" Enough said.
Aside from the actual scene here, the pool itself is fabulous. Its home in the Meatpacking District offers 365-degrees views and 45-foot pool is actually big enough to swim. Beautiful people and meaty-bachelor party-types down $15 signature cocktails in the water where music is actually piped in below. The service is spotty and my cocktail waitress was suddenly charming when my company switched from my pretty gal-pal to a pair of Brit boys. But you go to the Gansevoort for the scene, not the service.

Ostensibles e.V. is a theatre group that welcomes drama fanatics from all walks of life to either watch our twice yearly performances or even take an active part in the production.
The name "OSTENSIBLES" signifies something like "(the) apparent (ones)". That echoes the main goal of the group: like every theatre company, we seek to stage fictional, but plausible performances. However, the name also points to the unique feature of this amateur group: we are an Osnabrück-based English language group which puts on its productions in English - hence, OSnabrück's Theatre in ENglish.
Our aim is to promote education and culture by means of English language amateur theatre in and around Osnabrück. The group regards itself as the civilian successor group to Osnabrück Amateur Dramatics Society (OADS) which was established in the barracks of the British Garrison in Osnabrück.
The Ostensibles work in conjunction with Haus der Jugend where we rehearse and meet. Our performances take place in the Haus der Jugend.

Take away his instantly recognizable roles in blockbuster franchises like 'Harry Potter' and Christopher Nolan's Batman, and Gary Oldman would still be treasured as a bona fide cinematic icon. Frankly, how could the 53-year-old British actor not be, considering how many iconic characters—from Sid Vicious to Beethoven, Pontius Pilate to Count Dracula—that he has distinctively co-opted and burned into our memories?
In "Let the Right One In" director Tomas Alfredson's elegantly thrilling, period adaptation of espionage master John le Carré's Cold War-era novel "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy," Oldman again takes charge of a beloved persona that had long been associated with Sir Alec Guinness in a 1979 TV miniseries of the same name. Featuring a who's who of British talent including Colin Firth, Mark Strong, John Hurt and Tom Hardy, the new film stars Oldman as retired spymaster George Smiley, a mild-mannered man of few words, fewer tells and cunning observational skills, who has been called back into service to suss out a traitor within his former foreign-intelligence agency.
The Playlist sat down with Oldman to discuss the film, while also addressing reports of appearing in upcoming "Arthur & Lancelot" and "Akira" projects ("Rumors. There's nothing set."), his thoughts on Warner Bros. rebooting Batman after "The Dark Knight Rises" ("I've never heard of that… Keep the goose alive that lays the golden egg, but it won't be with Chris Nolan."), and casting his co-star Firth in his long-awaited directorial follow-up to "Nil by Mouth" ("That's another rumor. I'm not directing him.").
The Playlist: George Smiley is a much-loved character through le Carré's novels and the miniseries. Did anything carry over from those previous incarnations to your take on the character?
Gary Oldman: Well, of course, the book is the Holy Grail. Whenever we were in doubt, one always went back to the book. It's not like it's an okay book, or someone's beefed up a screenplay. It's literature, and it's great, great stuff. I remember the series, but I didn't re-watch it because I didn't want to be contaminated by it. But Alec Guinness and I now are mining the same material, so there will be things that we both arrive at.
The reason I ask specifically is because Smiley has such an internalized personality…
Great watcher, great listener.
As a character who's practically an actor himself, how do you try to externalize that in this medium?
Fortunately, you've got a camera that can get here, first of all…[motioning to a close-up of his face]…and can pick up on a thought process. If it's close enough, you can see that hopefully, the mind working. The clues, the secret to him. It's interesting to be the motor of a scene, but from a very restrained, almost passive place. Some of the work is done for you by the other characters.
There was a passage in the book that was the key, to me, to unlocking the door. It was a description of [Smiley's wife] Ann, who described him as a swift. She said that Smiley could regulate his body temperature to the room of a situation he was in. Almost like a reptile, just lowering the heartbeat. That was a real jewel. You know when you hit gold, because it informed the way I spoke, the stillness of the character came from that. Then you're looking for other things. He's a bit of a sadist, George. He can be quite cruel, but that's him doing his job. I used to call it "the tickle." You know, he's just giving someone the tickle. He's very aware of the filth, the ugly side to the job and what it entails.
Beyond the source material, do you research for a film like this since it takes place in such a specific environment and point in time, some of which is purportedly inspired by true events?
Yeah. I'm told it's the most autobiographic of his books, that it's a very personal story. I know for a fact that it was John le Carré's first wife who killed the owl. Now, he's put it in a classroom. An owl got trapped in the fireplace and caught on fire, but it was the wife who took care of it. That's a detail just from his life. I didn't work much outside of the book and I had access to le Carré, who was a spy and lived through that time. It was one-stop shopping.
Espionage has changed so much, and the way people do it, because of the Internet and Google and all that. The way we swap information. This is a very analog world on the cusp of becoming technological, but it's still a file in a cabinet, and knocking on walls. That was the world that John knew, so I basically wanted to ask him questions. Like I say, everything you want to know about Smiley, you don't have to work much outside the book, really. But I wanted to find out a little more about him in the field as an agent, and recruiting prior to when you meet him. That's where John was useful. Various missions and assignments that he had worked on, he spoke specifically about the level of paranoia. It was so intense having your cover blown, waiting to hear the footsteps on the stairs.
Because of digital footprints and other consequences of technology, that paranoia must be amped up even higher. Do you think today's espionage agents do more harm than good as they now spy on and interrogate themselves?
They serve a purpose. I think we still need them. Certainly recently with the capture of Saddam or Osama bin Laden, that was all covert. We're never going to get to the bottom of that. We know torture goes on. Is it necessary? These [North Korean] girls were certainly worked over in this period, but they didn't have a comrade or someone with them who was going to take a picture of them on an iPhone and then send it to the government. I don't even know, you would have to be so incredibly undercover. I go to the store and there's a picture of me in Us Magazine. I never saw anyone, you know?
How you would even get about in this day and age [as a spy], I'm sure it's all changed. But we connect with the world because ultimately it's a story about friendship, love lost, betrayal, loyalty and all of those things that we as people connect to. The Cold War is a backdrop to these very lonely, fractured people. I'm sure it's the same in the corporate world. It really works much the same.
As the film shows, loyalty can get you killed. This may sound glib, but is it an overrated virtue?
Loyalty? In that world, perhaps. No, I happen to believe it is one of the fundamental things. I'm not a fan of disloyalty, infidelity, secrets and lies. I don't think I'd make a very good spy. I've got too much of a conscience. I'd feel too guilty. I can't do that.
You've collaborated with so many gifted filmmakers, to which we can add Tomas Alfedson. Did you glean anything about his process that stands apart from others you've worked with?
The lovely thing is he's very confident. I like his decisiveness. I'll give you a for-instance. When we were shooting the private house where [two associates] meet, there's a scene where I listen to them arriving, where [Alfredson] just plays it in on me and they're coming up the stairs. I take the mint. When he said he was going to shoot that just on me, I thought, "What do you mean?" He says, "I'm going to do a close-up on you, and then I'll put sounds in and have you reacting to it." Now, another director, they would've cut to the hand on the doorbell, the feet going up the stairs, the close-up of the briefcase, the cars coming in, and maybe even shot an alternate. In editing maybe, if it didn't work… Tomas knew it was going to work. He didn't shoot other stuff. I really admired that. That's what separates the men from the boys. That's working with a real artist. He's very confident in his taste and choices.
Last but not least, you're known for your musicality. Have you had time in recent years to make any music?
No, I used to have a bunch of guys I played with, but I haven't really done that lately. I play at home. I'm really into the ukulele at the moment. It's easy to travel with, and you can do a lot. And my kids are getting into music now. My son plays trumpet. But I haven't had a minute, really.

Friday, December 1, 2017
The often sleepy political goings-on in the village of Poland were awakened by Sam Moffie, who will be a councilman starting next month.
I've known Moffie for close to 20 years and the sometimes controversial figure has already shown that when he sees something questionable, he's going to say something.
Case in point: Moffie contacted The Vindicator to correctly point out that village officials were letting Marc Cossette continue to serve as a councilman even though he moved out of Poland in mid-October and is living in Lake Milton.
And village officials had the nerve to dig in their heels even though the law is clear on this issue.
Cossette should have immediately resigned when he moved out of the village, and when he didn't, those in village government who knew about it should have said something and demanded he leave his post.
Cossette was appointed by village council in May to fill the unexpired term of Robert Limmer, who died a month prior. The term expires at the end of this month.
Vindicator reporter Jordyn Grzelewski asked Cossette a week ago about resigning and was told that he was committed to finishing his term.
"I just wish Mr. Moffie would back off and let me do this," he said. "I'm not doing anything illegal. I've got council's blessing, and I intend to finish."
So much for his intentions. He ended up resigning two days later.
But before that, village Solicitor Jay Macejko somehow came to the conclusion that Cossette was allowed to continue to serve.
He said: "I have no reason to believe that Marc is not in compliance with the requirements to be on council."
That Macejko could make such a statement is inexcusable.
As Mahoning County Prosecutor Paul J. Gains, who had to step in and threaten to go to court to remove Cossette from council, wrote section 3.15 of the Ohio Revised Code is clear on matters such as this.
It reads: "Each person holding an elective office of a political subdivision shall be a resident of that political subdivision." It also states that it "applies to persons who have been either elected or appointed to an elective office."
Before Macejko stopped talking to The Vindicator about this issue, he said the statute "talks about qualifications to become an elected member, so I don't think we're dealing with that statute at all."
An interesting aspect of this matter is Macejko and Gains don't like each other.
Macejko unsuccessfully challenged Gains for county prosecutor in 2012 in a bitter and close Democratic primary.
That race included the revelation of a derogatory text message about then-President Barack Obama allegedly exchanged between Macejko, who was Youngstown city prosecutor at the time, and an assistant city prosecutor as well as a religious discrimination lawsuit against Macejko and the city.
The issues were played out in the pages of The Vindicator.
Macejko has apparently not gotten over it.
In a Sunday email exchange between Gains and Macejko over the Cossette issue, the prosecutor wrote: "I have found nothing indicating that residency is not required if one is appointed to an elected position. In fact, a plain reading of R.C. 3.15 can only be interpreted that residency does indeed apply to one appointed to an elective office. If you have law to the contrary, please forward it. If I do not hear from you, I will assume you have found no statute or court decision in Mr. Cossette's favor."
Gains added: "Since you had earlier indicated that the facts as set forth in The Vindicator article may not be entirely accurate, please advise if Mr. Cossette has not moved from Poland Village. However, it is my understanding he is living in Lake Milton with his girlfriend, and that he informed Mayor Sicafuse that he had moved his residence from Poland to Lake Milton several months ago. I was also advised by the Vindicator reporter that Mr. Cossette had acknowledged directly to her that he had moved to Lake Milton. Please let me know if Mr. Cossette will resign from office on Monday, November 27, 2017, effective on that date. If I do not receive confirmation that he is resigning, I will file for a writ of quo warranto and request an expedited hearing on the matter. I would really appreciate a response no later than Monday morning. Please advise."
Macejko fired back: "Relax, Paul. It should not come as any surprise that I do not read The Vindicator. I also have not spoken with them since we began communicating and I have no intention of doing so. Whatever was in there was some regurgitation of past articles. It is my understanding that Mr. Cossette has submitted a resignation to the mayor. However, I have neither heard that from the mayor nor seen anything myself. I expect some communication with the mayor tomorrow."
He added: "Whatever sense of urgency or compulsion that you feel is both unnecessary and misplaced as this issue may have already resolved itself."
Gains then thanked Macejko for the "prompt reply," and was looking forward to the email that would come the next day.
On Monday, Macejko emailed Gains to inform him that Cossette had resigned the previous Friday.
"Given this development, your concerns should be put to rest and this concludes the business between us," Macejko wrote.
While Cossette is gone, the question remains: why was he allowed to remain in office for more than six weeks before Moffie raised the question of his residency?
Also, it's obvious that if Moffie had said nothing, a Lake Milton resident would have continued to improperly serve on the Poland Village Council through the end of the year.

The third wave brought us the last tag teams ever released in a two-pack: the Legion of Doom and the Nasty Boys. Interestingly, the Nasty Boys were never released in Spain, so I saw them first only a few years ago.
The Legion of Doom is my favourite tag team from all that Hasbro made, the figures look really menacing and have great features. Unfortunately, they're quite fragile and the spikes of their vests tend to break. If the figure felt from a middle height in the wrong position, spikes would jump off very easily.
HAWK (Joseph Michael "Joe" Laurinaitis)
ANIMAL (Michael Hegstrand)
The Nasty Boys were also a very good tag team, and I remember them from an epic battle against the rockers. The figures are ok, although a little boring in my opinion with the same outfir and very similar casts, except that one has black hair and the second one is blond, but isn't it the same for all tag teams… My theory (I think I explained it other time) is that the tag teams in which the figures were very similar were sold together, to avoid mistakes when buying the second figure.
It is also a known thing that children are attracted to figures that are very different to other figures they already own, that's why in most action figure collections, figures tend to have different colours, even in toylines like G.I.Joe, which is supposed to be military, so if a kid bought for example Ax from the first wave, it is less probable that that same child would choose Smash among the other 11 figures from wave 1.
FACTS and FIGURES:
- Name: LEGION OF DOOM and NASTY BOYS TAG TEAMS
- Toy Line: Official WWF (Wave 3)
- Year: 1992
- Company: Hasbro (U.S.A.)
- Size of the figures: 12 cm

It was a small group of people," Liz Phair told Rolling Stone, sitting high up in the Palms Hotel in Las Vegas during the weekend anniversary celebration for Matador Records, which released her acclaimed 1993 debut, Exile in Guyville. "This was when you really felt there was a mainstream music culture that we wanted to fuck with. We felt we were making better music than the stuff you heard on the radio." She has a new album, Funstyle, set for release October 19th (on Rocket Science), but was in Vegas to reconnect with old friends, including the Matador art director who wandered into the nearby wilderness during the cover shoot for Whip Smart and, apparently, barely survived. "It's intense — everyone is coming together. We've all been dispersed, the culture has moved on. [But] it's alive, it's still happening. Thank God Matador did this. They made a weekend that I'll remember forever."

A Number of Things...A number of things...
Doesnt mean anything, just thought it looked cool. Me messing around on photoshop with various filters.
I have seemed to be on a downward spiral of ongoing laziness (you may have noticed my blog is seriously lacking anything new...) I will start my posting pursuits again at a time that I see fit... (soon!!)
Followed thereafter by...
With all the recent talk of revolution and mutiny at the WITS Archi Dept, I felt I should follow the trend and rant a bit:
The simple task of blogging can often become a serious challenge at the Archi Computer Centre, let alone the not so simple task of plotting and the like! It seems there is always many complaints from students, im keen to start seeing results!!
Drawing boards... Need I say more?? Actually, i'd settle on a chair to sit on for now...
Visit Ryan's blog for many valid rants and raves about WITS etc. Leave comments, leave complaints about WITS, leave a pretty picture, lets just start getting things done!
I really like Ryan's idea of a Wits Archi Underground Movement. I'm keen to dedicate some effort to this as it is exactly what us Archi Students need.
To everyone enjoying The Architectural Student Congress '06 in Pretoria, think of us unlucky ones who couldn't go. I'm looking forward to the pictures from it!

This year's weather has not been cooperative. It's been rainy, or windy, or rainy and windy. There have been some hours of sun here and there. The one saving grace is that it's not too hot! The trip to Stingray City was cancelled due to swells and choppy water. The Burgers in Paradise was moved from Rum Point (the destination of the catamaran after Stingray City) to the beach here at the Ritz. The irony of all this is when we left Santa Cruz it was 75, clear and sunny! You'd think that with all that, we wouldn't be having fun but that is far from true. The food is not affected by the weather, neither are the personalities.
We began our journey just like in years past: a wayyyy too long flight, then a wayyyy too long layover, then another flight. We got into our room, changed rooms due to wanting a king and not a queen bed. Finally unpacked and showered off the airplanes and airports and rewarded our travel woes with sushi at Taikun. Hotel restaurants are usually disappointing but not here. Taikun is fabulous sushi. This time we had all the appetizers. All. Keep 'em comin'. Wahoo, local tuna, wakame, conch, local lobster, tuna tataki (my favorite!). Then some nigiri: wahoo, local tuna, hamachi. Plate after plate and it was all so good. Sushi is my post-travel medicine. It's what I crave when I've put my body through anything taxing. The sake helps.
We came in a couple of days early this year and are staying a couple of days later. This was supposed to give us time to swim and snorkel before and after the event. That isn't happening but when the sun comes out we are jumping in the ocean while we can!
Thursday night while the chefs and many guests were at the opening night wine auction dinner, we went to dinner at Blue. Our nine year old, Ben, has been to many a fancy dinner but never done a degustation menu. He's had a plate or two of something while we've done a tasting but has never jumped in and said, "Sure, I'll eat whatever you put in front of me." This was a big moment for him, he trusts Eric Ripert more than me I think ;-) We ordered oysters to start (Ben had 8, we had 4 each) then Eric's tasting menu: Tuna and Foie, Crab Salad, Lobster, Halibut, Striped Bass, Dover Sole, Apple and White Chocolate. Seven courses plus the extras they kept bringing us. Ben ate it all aside from the halibut which he didn't care for and the sole which he had to excuse himself for since nature called. His dad and I ate those for him. He polished off the rest and THEN had 8 more oysters and two more pieces of bread. I am such a proud mom.
The event officially started for us on Friday with Jose Andres at 10am. He's so much fun. Plus burgers on the beach and Daniel Boulud's sand castle instruction. Stay tuned. Report to come.
Right now I have to get ready for brunch, the oysters and champagne are waiting for me.

Reduce Your Risk for Type 2 Diabetes
Shaw's Osco Pharmacy/
Oct 5th, 2018
Pick Fruit to Tackle Type 2 Diabetes
Devil is in the details
To look at potential connections between eating fruit and type 2 diabetes risk, researchers collected information on diet, physical activity, height, weight, cigarette smoking, and history of heart disease, diabetes, or cancer from 187,382 middle-aged men and women. Each participant was followed for between 18 and 24 years, and the study authors noted which people developed type 2 diabetes.
Compared with people eating less fruit, those who ate three or more weekly servings of apples and pears, bananas, blueberries, grapefruit, grapes and raisins, or total fruit were significantly less likely to develop type 2 diabetes. Certain types of fruit seemed to reduce risk particularly well when consumed at least three times weekly, including
- blueberries, which reduced risk by 26%,
- grapes and raisins, which reduced risk by 12%,
- apples and pears, which reduced risk by 7%, and
- bananas and grapefruit, which each reduced risk by 5%.
Factoring in fruit to manage diabetes risk
While this study is observational, and therefore cannot prove cause and effect, it provides useful ideas about which fruit may be particularly beneficial for fending off type 2 diabetes, and it gives us a window into why previous studies, which only considered total fruit, have yielded conflicting results. While this study suggests that total fruit may reduce risk, it is possible that specific types of fruit have a more powerful effect than others.
Still, according to study author Qi Sun, epidemiologist and professor in the Department of Nutrition at Harvard's School of Public Health, "We don't want to leave the impression that there's any magical fruit," because this study only shows associations, not proof that certain fruits are the silver bullet for type 2 diabetes. To protect your health, a multifaceted approach is best:
- Put family first. Type 2 diabetes runs in families, so if you have a family history of the disease, talk to your doctor about how to best manage your increased risk.
- Fruit up. Nutritionists have long advised people to choose whole fruit over fruit juice, and this makes sense. Juice lacks the fiber of whole fruit, and fiber plays a role in keeping glucose levels stable and reducing caloric intake.
- Move muscle. When you move your body, your muscles use insulin more efficiently. Even if you don't lose a pound, you're still improving your odds of avoiding type 2 diabetes. Try 20 to 30 minutes of brisk walking, biking, or most any other aerobic activity daily to improve glucose control.
- Vegetate. Vegetables may be even more beneficial than fruit, because they pack many of the same nutrients—and more—without even close to the amount of simple sugar found in fruit.
- Berry on. Berries are chock full of nutrients known to have beneficial effects on health, so eat blueberries, blackberries and raspberries in season (picking fruit with kids is a fun outdoor activity) and opt for frozen when fresh is not available.

Great article and advice. I will follow it with more berries in my diet. I already eat plenty of vegetables but know they will continue to help.
E Jamison 12/11/2018 at 9:31 pm
I eat fruit everyday and will especially focus on the berries.

If you're so interested in preventing diabetes, how come you sell so few sugar free products, I have to go to Hannaford or Wal Mart to find sugar free pie fillings, Breyer's sugar free salted caramel Ice cream, things like that. I certainly would rather spend it all at Shaw's than having to go elsewhere to find things like that.

The interruption is done by revoking the file descriptors (dupping a /dev/null into it) and sending the signal SIGUSR2 to the thread. Even if the dupping doesn't interrupt the file operation, SIGUSR2 does, and on restart it will find that the file descriptor now returns to /dev/null and return immediately. Triceps defines a SIGUSR2 handler that does nothing, but you can override it with a custom one.
For this to work, Triceps needs to know, which file descriptors are to be revoked, which is achieved by registering for tracking them in the TrieadOwner. To avoid revoking the unrelated descriptors, they must be unregistered before closing. The normal sequence is:
- open a file descriptor
- register it for tracking
- do the file operations
- unregister the file descriptor
- close it
The lowest-level calls deal with the raw tracking:
Register the file descriptor (obtained with a fileno() or such) for tracking. The repeated calls for the same descriptor have no effect.
Unregister the file descriptor. If the descriptor is not registered, the call is ignored.
The next level of the API deals with the file handles, extracting the file descriptors from them as needed.
Get a file descriptor from the file handle and track it.
Get a file descriptor from the file handle and unregister it.
Unegister the file handle's descriptor then close the file handle. It's a convenience wrapper, to make the unregistering easier to remember.
The correct sequence might be hard to follow if the code involves some dying and evals catching these deaths. To handle that, the next level of the API provides the automatic tracking by scope. The scoping is done with the class Triceps::TrackedFile.Which is probably easier to describe right here.
A TrackedFile object keeps a reference of a file handle and also knows of its file descriptor being tracked by the TrieadOwner (so yes, it has a reference to the TrieadOwner too). Until the TrackedFile is destroyed, the file handle in it will never have its reference count go to 0, so it will never be automatically closed and destroyed. And when the TrackedFile is destroyed, first it tells the TrieadOwner to forget the file descriptor and only then unreferences the file handle, preserving the correct sequence.
And the scope of the TrackedFile is controlled by the scope of a variable that keeps a reference to it. If it's a local/my variable, TrackedFile will be destroyed on leaving the block, if it's a field in an object, it will be destroyed when the object is destroyed or the field is reset. Basically, the usual Perl scope business in Triceps.
If you want to close the file handle before leaving the scope of TrackedFile, don't call close() on the file handle. Instead, call close on the TrackedFile:
This will again properly untrack the file descriptor, and then close the file handle, and remember that it has been closed, so no seconds attempt at that will be done when the TrackedFile gets destroyed.
There also are a couple of getter methods on the TrackedFile:
$fd = $trf->fd();
Get the tracked file descriptor. If the file handle has been already closed, will return -1.
$fh = $trf->get();
Get the tracked file handle. If the file handle had already been closed, will confess.
Now we get back to the TrieadOwner.
$trf = $to->makeTrackedFile(FILE);
Create a TrackedFile object from a file handle.
$trf = $to->makeTrackedFileFd(FILE, $fd);
The more low-level way to construct a TrackedFile, with specifying the file descriptor as a separate explicit argument. makeTrackedFile() is pretty much a wrapper that calls fileno() on the file handle and then calls makeTrackedFileFd().
And the following methods combine the loading of a file descriptor from the App and tracking it by the TrieadOwner. They are the most typically used interface for passing around the file handles through the App.
($trf, $file) = $to->trackDupFile($name, $mode);
Load the dupped file handle from the App, create an IO::Handle file object from it according to the $mode (in either r/w/a/r+/w+/a+ or </>/>>/+</+>/+>> format), and make a TrackedFile from it. Returns a pair of the TrackedFile object and the created file handle. The App still keeps the original file descriptor. The $mode must be consistent with the original mode of the file stored into the App. $name is the name used to store the file descriptor into the App.
($trf, $file) = $to->trackGetFile($name, $mode);
Similar to trackDupFile() only the file descriptor is moved from the App, and the App forgets about it.
($trf, $file) = $to->trackDupSocket($name, $mode);
($trf, $file) = $to->trackGetSocket($name, $mode);
Similar to the File versions, only create a file handle object of the class IO::Socket::INET.
($trf, $file) = $to->trackDupClass($name, $mode, $class);
($trf, $file) = $to->trackGetClass($name, $mode, $class);
Similar to the File versions, only creates the file handle of an arbitrary subclass of IO::Handle (with the name specified in $class). So for example if you ever want to load an IPv6 or Unix domain socket, these are the methods to use.

Hari Alluri
Hari Alluri, who immigrated to Vancouver, Coast Salish territories at age twelve, is the author of Carving Ashes (CiCAC, 2013) and The Promise of Rust (Mouthfeel, 2016). An award-winning poet, educator, and teaching artist, his work appears widely in anthologies, journals and online venues, including Chautauqua, Poemeleon and Split This Rock. He is a founding editor at Locked Horn Press, where he has co-edited two anthologies, Gendered & Written: Forums on Poetics andRead America(s): An Anthology. He holds an MFA in Creative Writing from San Diego State University and, along with the Federico Moramarco Poetry International Teaching Prize, he has received VONA/Voices and Las Dos Brujas fellowships and a National Film Board of Canada grant. Hari currently serves as editor of pacific Review in San Diego, Kumeyaay land.
The Flayed City
BUY The Flayed City HERE!
Hari Alluri is an author who, according to U.S. Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera, "carries a new, quiet brush of multi-currents, of multi-worlds to paint this holographic life-scape." In The Flayed City, Alluri gives an intimate look into the lives of city dwellers and immigrants, imagining the souls that reside in "broom-filled nights", "skyscrapers for buoys", and under an "aluminum rising sun". The charged poems in The Flayed City sweep together "an archipelago song" scored by memory and landscape, history and mythology, desire and loss. Driven by what is residual—of displacement, of family, of violent yet delicate masculinity, of undervalued yet imperative work—Alluri's lines quiver with the poet's distinctive rendering of praise and lament steeped with "gravity and blood" where "the smell of ants being born surrounds us" and "city lights form constellations // invented to symbolize war."

After a few weeks of quiet and no news, the brakes came off the rumour mill this morning as several sites talked up the imminent announcement of revised Mac Pro and MacBook Pro models. One site said that Apple Stores worldwide were off-line Friday morning, usually a sure indicator that something is afoot, but by the time I'd typed in the URL the store was back to normal. Same old stuff.
The story goes that updates for the MacBook Pro are now well overdue and, according to pundits, the Mac Pro is definitely a candidate for revision in the very near future. Talk is of i5 and i7 processors in the laptop range for the first time and even more wondrous updates for the Mac Pro. Of course, March is often the month for such announcements but there is no doubt that Apple is giving priority at the moment to the iPad launch. So it could be that hardware updates will be put on the back burner for the time being.
I have a vested interest here. Cash is waiting for a shiny new 13in MacBook Pro. I desperately need to get my hands on one for the summer travelling season but I'm not about to part with the cash until the next update, however long I have to wait. I have my 15in Pro (late 2008) and I've been happy with it except in terms of size and weight. Some years ago I made the mistake of buying a 17in model and that was a real monster. Even the 15incher is more than I want to heft around airports. At the time I bought the current laptop the new unibody aluminium 13in model hadn't been announced, but I wish I'd waited.
Waiting does no harm. It extends the anticipation and makes the eventual arrival of the box that bit more exciting. But I've been waiting such a long time and that cash is burning a hole in my pocket. Maybe next week. Apple?

So I went to another etching session last Friday, and continued working on the same Wolf Alice etching plate. This time I learned the sugar lift and aquatint techniques. The technician was also showing another student how to do spit-bite, so now I know how that works as well. The only technique that I have yet to try is hard ground. Saw a student working with that and learned that you can actually work in stages and after adding the hard ground onto an already etched plate, you could still see the previous etching... which allows you to continue working on the same image. Hopefully I can try that this Friday!
The following is the new Wolf Alice print. This isn't complete as I would prefer darker lines and more detail on the trees.

Water Extraction To minimize Damage
An unsafe flood left the lower amount of my home with a lot of water. I lacked the equipment to execute my own water extraction, therefore i called some professionals in the local phone book to eliminate it soon as possible. Others were experiencing the same problem that I had due to the flood, therefore the phone lines were pretty busy. Luckily I used to be able to get an appointment for an extraction within 24 hours that I made the phone call.
Austin water damage restoration
The experts arrived having a large truck, which contained a vacuum cleaner big enough to suck the lake from my home. They covered every inch from the lower level using the vacuum, while using absorbent cloths and mops to trap anything that may have been missed my the vacuum. Additionally they performed a mold test to make sure that there hadn't been any mold growth in enough time it took so they can arrive.
That being said, I was pretty lucky since i didn't get any bad damage from your flood. One of my neighbors includes a basement, and the water collected within it like a pool. By the time his extraction ended, mold had already begun to cultivate.

I have been a fond reader of the Economist for a while, partly for the dry wit and erudition evident in the writing and partly for the fun of discovering what I call the "hook sentences" that go into many of the articles: statements that are tossed out with such carelessness that one is tempted to think they are unimportant but that in truth hold or represent all the biases that the Economist holds dear and from which biases proceeds much of the reporting choices made by the periodical.
For my first post on this thesis, I cherry picked an article from a recent issue that I thought would have a preponderance of "hook sentences," and here's one that's simply a gold mine:
Iran's presidential choice: It could make a big difference
There's so many ways to slice this cake, that it's hard to know what to focus on. Let's just pick this pair of sentences, which are fairly safe to quote out of context: "Wary of the ever-vigilant supreme leader and chastened by past failures to overcome conservatives, … a reformist president would probably shy away from any bold departures in foreign policy. Yet even changes in tone could have a dramatic effect."

Today was a good day. I got to leave early from work so I used that chance to get some projects done. I made a nursing cover for a friend. (Click here for an easy tutorial).
For this P.O.T.W. I wanted to show you guys the crocheted slouchy hat that I made for my friend, but it's not quite done and my hair is dirty so I don't want to show it to you. :)
Instead you can look at this pin from Gleeful Things.
This is basically what my version looks like, but since I use thinner yarn which gives is a different look. I'll try to post a pic soon so you guys can see what I'm talking about. :)

I don't get the point of this thread, the OP just seems to be trying to rub our noses in it. Enjoy your Bolt, but serious who but you cares. Go hangout in the Bolt forums or do something useful instead.
Meanwhile, I'll still enjoy my Leaf and I'll not resent it for all the things it isn't. It's shortcomings, particularly with respect to range, are well documented so why on earth did you buy a Leaf in the first place?
I might get excited about a Bolt when I can buy a used one for less than $10K. Until then, meh.


text: I already explained why this idea of yours does not hold any water whatsoever. You are trying to appeal to the obscurity of many alchemical texts, but that mostly relates to the use of "decknamen" and other literary devices intended to make it less clear for "unworthy" seekers how the Stone was prepared, it does not mean that all alchemical literature is 100% unintelligible. We have plenty of descriptions of the processes and reactions that lead to the Stone, but always concealing the real proper names of the substances involved, and from them we can easily infer that they DO NOT match with the operations for obtaining phosphorus from urine, or with the characteristics of phosphorus itself. Your theory fails. Phosphorus is not the Philosophers' Stone even by a landslide.

Gas Shutoff
Know when and how to turn off your gas meter
If you smell natural gas, it's always safest to leave the area immediately and call us. However, after a natural disaster, such as an earthquake, it could be several days before we're able to reach your home. DO NOT turn off your natural gas service unless you smell gas, hear the sound of gas escaping, or see other signs of a leak. ONLY turn off your gas if it is safe to do so.
Watch the following video to learn how to shut off your gas meter.
If you turn the gas off, LEAVE IT OFF, and call us at 800-882-3377. Do not turn it back on yourself. Appliances and natural gas lines will need to be checked for possible damage before service can be safely restored.
Follow the procedure below to shut off a gas meter:
- Locate the shutoff valve on the riser pipe from the ground to your meter or, on newer meters, the service line going from your meter into the house.
- Use an adjustable pipe or crescent-type wrench to turn the valve a quarter turn in either direction. When the valve head is parallel to the pipe, it is in the OPEN position.
- Turn the valve head crosswise (perpendicular) to the pipe and it will be in the OFF position.
There are also natural gas shutoff valves on lines that fuel individual pieces of equipment. Please refer to the manufacturer's handbook for specific instructions.
