Thanksgiving doesn't deter graffiti removal guy
By Denise M. Baran-Unland Correspondent December 9, 2012 6:48PM
Jan Nahorski, graffiti abatement officer for thecity of Joliet, spent part of his Thanksgiving Day removing graffiti from a resident's property, so she could enjoy her holiday company without embarrassment. | submitted photo
Updated: January 11, 2013 6:12AM
The turkey was roasting in the oven and Jan Nahorski, graffiti abatement officer for the city of Joliet, was driving to New Lenox to drop off some tables for a holiday party when he received the frantic phone call.
A woman preparing for a large family gathering at her home woke up to find her house, fence and car plastered with graffiti, some of it gang-related and some of it extremely sexually explicit.
Even worse, her parents were dining with there that day. She had small children in the house. Could Nahorski come right over and remove it? Please?
So Nahorski donned work clothes, picked up his gear and spent several hours restoring her property to its former condition.
Nahorski said he didn't receive holiday or overtime pay but that wasn't the reason he delayed his own Thanksgiving celebration.
"I just did it because I believe in the mission entrusted to me," Nahorski said, "and that is to make Joliet a better place to live by making it as graffiti-free as I can."

Defeated Sanity
Psalms Of The Moribund
What we have here is technical death/grind falling somewhere between early Suffocation, Barnes-era Cannibal Corpse and Cryptopsy. Defeated Sanity are high on the speed and brutality but low on subtlety and dynamics, so if you can't get enough of fast, brutal, American-style death metal then Psalms Of The Moribund will most likely satisfy, though more discerning fans may wish to look elsewhere.
Production-wise, Psalms Of The Moribund has a similar sound to Suffocation's Pierced From Within and Cryptopsy's None So Vile, and for me that's a good thing. Both the individual sounds and overall mix are solid. The drumming is at the forefront a lot of the time, and while the double-kicking and blasting is mighty impressive, the patterns do become repetitive and rather exhausting in their relentlessness. Vocally there's nothing much here to rave on about. The growls and gurgles of Jens Staschel are in the 'cupped-hand' styling which Suffocation's Frank Mullen made his own all those years ago, though not imbued with the same level of emotion or character.
The early songs on Psalms Of The Moribund blend into each other a fair bit - especially on first listen - and it's not until about halfway through that Defeated Sanity begin to open it up a bit and let the songs breathe more. The triad of "Butchered Identity", the title track and "Engorged With Humiliation" is where the album peaks for me. All three tracks are more dynamic structurally, with the drums sharing centre stage with the guitars more. There are some excellent slow passages on offer, and the guitars have added texture with effective use of harmonics and discordant riffing.
While Defeated Sanity are enjoyable enough and a strong proposition musically, they remain too derivative to warrant extended listening. Psalms Of The Moribund simply doesn't have the songs to match those of the band's influences, but the torch is definitely there for them to pick up. Hopefully this lack of originality will be rectified on future releases and see Defeated Sanity carve out a sonic identity of their own.

The Left Learned Wrong Lessons from Nazism
The only way to understand what is happening to America in our time — and for that matter, in Europe since World War II — is to understand the left. And one way to understand the left — and its enormous appeal to many decent people — is to understand what it learned from World War II and the Nazi experience. The lessons people draw from history go a long way toward explaining how they view the world and how they behave. Unfortunately, virtually everything the left learned from the unique evil known as Nazism has been wrong. The first lesson was that the right is evil,...

Dear stacey,
I made it to California late last night. I will reach the Bay area tonight.
The last four days I have been in constant movement, no time to be still. It still sometimes feels like I am just on a long adventure, after which, I will return home to Atlanta. I don't know that…

A truck crashed into the Old Town Playhouse on the corner of E. Eighth and Cass in Traverse City.
TRAVERSE CITY -- A vehicle driving through a red flashing light is blamed for causing the driver of a truck to veer into the Old Town Playhouse in Traverse City.
It happened around 5:45am Thursday.
Traverse City Fire Department Chief Jim Tuller tells 7&4 News the truck was heading east on Eighth Street. As the driver of the truck approached the yellow flashing light at Cass, another vehicle went through the red flashing light. The driver of the truck veered in the other direction to avoid a crash, hit the curb and ran into the north wall of the Old Town Playhouse.
No one was injured and there is no damage to the building.
Chief Tuller warns drivers to remember you must stop at a red flashing light. He also says to approach intersections with caution, especially when roads are slippery.

Moisture Alarms for Bed-Wetting - Topic Overview
Moisture alarms for bed-wetting are worn on the body and make a sound when urine first touches the child's underclothing. The child is encouraged to try to "beat the buzzer." When the alarm sounds, the child:
- Gets out of bed and disconnects the buzzer.
- Goes to the bathroom to finish urinating (even if the child no longer feels any need to).
- Changes clothing and reconnects the alarm.
- Changes the linens or puts a towel on any wet spot.
- Resets the alarm and goes back to sleep.
At first, parents may need to help the child with all of the above steps. Children younger than 10 may not hear the alarm, but the treatment still works if parents hear it and wake the child. Also, the parent or child may keep a chart or calendar of dry, wet, and wet-spot nights to encourage the child.

Moisture alarms are the most successful treatment for bed-wetting. The treatment is most successful with older children who can hear the alarm and wake themselves. Moisture alarms may be used with other treatments, such as motivational therapy, as needed.
A child is less likely to return to bed-wetting after using a moisture alarm if:
- Treatment is continued until the child has been dry for 4 weeks. It can take up to 4 months to see results.1
- The child drinks extra liquids during the day to stretch the bladder toward the end of treatment.
Moisture alarms are inexpensive, safe, and fairly simple to use. But the child and the parents need to be trained in how to use the alarm.

Despite a 911 operator's urgent pleas, a staffer with CPR training at an elderly living facility refused to perform the procedure on a resident who had stopped breathing.
The reason for the refusal? Glenwood Gardens in Bakersfield, California, has a policy against its employees providing medical care.
Lorraine Bayless, 87, died.
Shocking? Does this all sound just plain wrong?
Well, medical professionals, lawyers and those who work in the world of elderly independent living say it's much more complicated. While all states have so-called Good Samaritan laws aimed at protecting people against legal liability if they jump in to perform CPR on someone who needs it, few people know about the laws.
And Good Samaritan laws have been fiercely challenged in courts across the country, leaving the average person unclear about just how protected they may be.
"In America where there's a lawyer behind every defibrillator, there's worry that some people have 'Am I going to get sued?'" said Arthur Caplan, a medical ethicist at New York University.
Last week, shortly after Bayless' death, the family said they were satisfied with the care she received, according to KGET.
"I never said I was fine with that," daughter Pamela Bayless told CNN Monday before hanging up the phone. "That was completely taken out of context, and I have no further comment."
From a "medical ethics point of view, I think if you call 911, and 911 says, 'start CPR,' you have to do it," Caplan said. "You are under an obligation to do it. You've started that process and you must follow through.
"The policy on paper may make sense," he said, "but policy be damned when someone's life is at stake."
The 911 call
When Bayless collapsed in a dining room last Tuesday morning, someone at Glenwood Gardens called 911, and Bakersfield Fire Dispatcher Tracey Halvorson answered.
A Glenwood Gardens employee gave the phone to a nurse who identified herself as Colleen.
During the call, Halvorson tried to reason with Colleen to start CPR, and when she said her boss won't allow that, the dispatcher asked her to hand the phone to someone nearby, or anyone the nurse could flag down who was not beholden to the facility's policy.
"I understand if your boss is telling you you can't do it," the dispatcher said. "But ... as a human being ... you know ... is there anybody that's willing to help this lady and not let her die?"
"Not at this time," Colleen answered.
In the last three minutes of the call, Halvorson said, "OK. I don't understand why you're not willing to help this patient."
Colleen: "I am but, I'm just saying that ..."
Dispatcher: "OK, I'll walk you through it all. We, EMS take the liability for this, Colleen. I'm happy to help you. This is EMS protocol."
Colleen is then heard asking someone nearby to call a supervisor.
"Can you get (unintelligible) ... right away," Colleen said. "I don't know where he is. But she's yelling at me and saying we have to have one of our other residents perform CPR. I'm feeling stressed and I'm not going to do that, make that call."
The nurse asked the dispatcher when the fire department would arrive.
"They're coming as quick ... they've been on the way all this time. But we can't wait. This lady is going to die," the dispatcher answers.
Colleen replies, "Yeah."

Protesters carried a Mexican flag stained with fake blood in the country's capital this week -- a symbol, they said, of President Felipe Calderon's six-year term.
Just a few hours later, Mexican television broadcast video of the outgoing president brushing his hand across a pristine flag as triumphant music played in the background.
The images showed two drastically different interpretations of Calderon's legacy: a fed-up public that has grown weary of a brutal drug war; and a president who maintains that his fight against organized crime was necessary and, by some measures, successful.
"I leave having accomplished my duty and responsibility to serve Mexico," said Calderon, whose term ends this week. "I have worked to leave a stronger, healthier country, with a better justice system and a solid economy."
But activists offered a much harsher assessment, staging a protest in Mexico City dubbed "A Recounting of the Damage: A Six-Year Term of Death."
"Felipe Calderon leaves as a traitor to the country, as the president of devastation and contempt," the Movement for Peace with Justice and Dignity said in a statement, slamming Calderon's "clumsy attempt to reduce crime."
Calderon: We had to make 'difficult decisions'
In his farewell address, broadcast Wednesday night, the president thanked the country's public officials, military and police for "defending Mexican families."
Calderon noted that his government had passed universal health care and kept Mexico's economy stable in the face of the global financial crisis.
But he did not explicitly mention the controversial six-year crackdown on drug cartels that began in 2006, when he deployed federal troops to fight organized crime.
The battle became a hallmark of his tenure, and has sparked mounting criticism in recent years. Government statistics estimate that 47,500 people have died in drug-related violence since Calderon took office.
The Mexican government has not released official figures since January, and others estimate a much higher death toll.
Officials have repeatedly said that brutal battles between rival cartels fueled the violence.
And in earlier speeches, Calderon has noted that 25 of the country's 37 most-wanted drug traffickers were killed or captured during his tenure.
"Thanks to all Mexicans for your understanding before the very difficult decisions that we had to make in order to face so many complicated challenges," Calderon said in his address. "Beyond my capabilities and limitations, I assure you that I have put all my willingness and understanding to work toward the common good of Mexicans."
A recent national survey by the Mexican firm Gabinete de Comunicacion Estrategica (Strategic Communications Office) revealed that nearly 66% of Mexicans questioned believe that drug traffickers were winning the organized crime fight. In that same survey, 52% of the 2,000-person sample questioned said they approved of Calderon's approach to combating cartels.
Analysts offer different assessments of whether Calderon's drug war strategy worked.
Some have argued that the president entered the battle without realizing the enemy's capabilities.
"I think the adversary was larger and more harmful than we thought," security expert Eduardo Guerrero told CNN en Español in 2010. "It was much more capable of responding to the government's strategy, and getting stronger."
Others have said Calderon had no choice but to move forward.
"When Calderon came to power, it was already going on. The only option was to use the army and the federal police. If he hadn't done it ... in no time you would have organized crime controlling the country," Jorge Chabat, who studies security at Mexico's Center for Research and Teaching in Economics, said last year. "If he had waited until the army and police were prepared, Mexico would have more kidnappings, more extortion. He had no other option. It was a bad option, but the others were worse."
But critics, like the peace movement that protested Wednesday, have said Calderon's administration hasn't done enough to help the drug war's victims. And activists have accused his government of turning a blind eye to human rights abuses committed by police and troops fighting the drug war.
In his September state of the union address, Calderon defended his approach, and said abuses by authorities combating cartels were the exception, not the rule.
"And far from hiding them," he said, "in all the cases that were brought to light, action was taken against those responsible."
This week, in his home state of Michoacan, where Calderon first announced his crackdown on cartels, banners with farewell messages addressed to him hung from prominent bridges.

The same Committee reported on the bill [H. R. 29] fixing liabilities of employers for injury to employe, recommending its passage with amendments.
Mr. RYAN moved to amend as follows: "In case the injury received by any employe when such employe would be entitled to recover except for carelessness of some co-servant, such carelessness of such co-servant shall be no bar to such recovery by such injured party." He thought this measure a very unjust one. In cases where the employer and employe are equal, there would be no harm in such a rule, but take a Railroad Company in that case: The employe goes to the service of the employer perfectly ignorant of all the duties and particulars pertaining to that business. The contracting parties are not equal, thus putting the employe on an additional responsibility of dligence. The law as it now reads is to the effect that every individual who takes employment from a corporation or individual, becomes thereby not only the page: 111[View Page 111] guarantee of his own carelessness in the performance of his duty, but is put, by the operation of the rule, the guarantee of every one of his co-servants. Where dangerous machinery is in operation, and a person loses an arm or leg in consequence of carelessness of a servant operating a particular machine, he can recover from his employer, notwithstanding the fact that the machine was dangerously arranged. Every individual takes a position with a full knowledge of the responsibilty, subjecting himself to such accidents as may result, but it is an unjust rule that he should become the guarantee of his fellow-servants. It is for this purpose that the amendment is offered.
Mr. GIBSON believed when a man engages himself he assumes certain responsibilities connected with such employment. He said decisions of Courts in cases of gross negligence were that the road becomes liable, and under this amendment it would destroy what is known as the doctrine of contributory labor, and he did not think the amendment ought to prevail. The passing of this amendment will force Railroad Companies and corporations to compel employes to sign deadline warrants.
Mr. COLE--I think the amendment ought to prevail. Take for instance the case of a fireman being injured by the carelessness of the engineer, where it was not in the power of the fireman to guard against the carelessness of the engineer. I think a Railroad Company or any other Company ought to be responsible for injuries caused by the negligence of other employes. Some body must be responsible; the railroad can use the proper care and diligence, a thing which the sub-employe can not do. They are, as the law now stands at the very mercy of these powerful corporations. In reference to the dead-line warrants, I am in favor of enacting a law, making every dead-line warrant null and void.
Mr. ROBERTS said the law did consider them void, and always considered such documents illegal. He said in case of an accident, the person can collect damages under the existing laws, and he did not see the necessity of such legislation.
Mr. CARTER said in running upon railroads there is a risk, and somebody must assume the responsibility of that risk. This amendment changes it so that the Company shall carry the risk in place of the employe.
The amendment was agreed to.
Mr. COLE moved to amend the bill as follows: "All contracts between an employer and employe by which the rights of the employe under the provisions of this act are waived shall be void."
The amendment was adopted, the Committee report was concurred in, and the bill ordered engrossed.

You are going home with a feeding tube in place. If you normally take any medications by mouth, you will need to take them through your feeding tube. You can make this easier by calling your pharmacist to see whether any of your medications are available in liquid form. If they are, ask that your prescriptions be filled with liquid medications.
You were shown how to care for your type of feeding tube in the hospital. If you did not receive an instruction sheet on caring for your tube, ask for one. This sheet provides general guidelines and steps to follow when taking medication through a feeding tube.
Remember to:
Use liquid medications whenever possible.
Tell all your health care providers that you take medications through your tube.
Don't mix medications with feeding formula unless your doctor says it's okay.
Flush your tube before, between, and after giving medications to prevent the tube from getting clogged.
Here's what you will need:
Measuring cup that is marked with ml or cc (these are the same thing)
Measuring spoon or syringe marked with ml or cc
50 ml (cc) or larger syringe
Bowl of tap water (2 cups or more)
Check the placement of your feeding tube the way you were shown in the hospital.
Prepare each medication the way you were shown in the hospital.
Take your medications in the following order:
Liquid medications first.
Medications that need to be dissolved second.
Thick medications last.
Measure the prescribed amount of liquid medication, or crush pills and dissolve powder in 15 ml (about 1 tablespoon) or more of warm water.
Remove the plunger from the 50 ml syringe. Pour 30 ml of warm water into the syringe and flush your tube.
Pour the medication into the syringe. Do not use the syringe plunger to push the medication into the tube. Let the medication flow in slowly.
Be sure to flush your tube with 5 ml (about 1 teaspoon) or more of warm water between all medications.
Take each medication by itself. Never mix medications together in the syringe.
Flush the tube with 30 ml of warm water after all medications have been given.
Wait before restarting your tube feeding. Some medications don't work when mixed with the feeding formula. Ask your doctor how long you should wait to start feeding after taking medications.
Keep your tube clamped in between feedings.
Make a follow-up appointment as directed by our staff.
Call your doctor right away if you have any of the following:
Trouble breathing during feeding, flushing, or giving medication
Tube that can't be unclogged
Tube that falls out or difficulty telling if the tube is in your stomach
Diarrhea that lasts more than 3 loose stools
Constipation that lasts more than 48 hours

It's a wanna be knockoff Otterbox product. It'd be hard to mess up a hard plastic case with a second, knock/bump resistant sleeve....but this manufacturer did. I wouldn't purchase this product again. When I got it the lack of quality was evident. After putting the phone inside the inner case, I installed the soft silicone skin and the port covers wouldn't stay closed, or would bunch up around the bottom when I tried to tuck them in. I'm not happy and it's really not worth the time, effort to try to return for a refund. There is truth in the old adage "you get what you pay for'. Sometimes there's a product which is close, this isn't it.
this is a cheaply made knock-off of the OtterBox case. shipping was as promised. it was obvious on arrival that the product was cheaply made and not something i was going to use on the phone. there were pieces of rubber still attached around the edges (like from the mold) that needed to be removed. it was all extremely light and, if i had chosen to, i could have snapped the plastic case with next to no effort. we tried it on just to say we did and it was very ill fitted. the plastic part snapped on ok but would have broken easily if put on and off a few times. the outer rubber piece puckered up and created gaps where you could see the plastic underneath. its difficult to describe and i really wish i had taken a picture. i do not think this product would protect the phone from impact damage. we sent it back immediately and i would not recommend this product to anyone. not even as a backup.
It does the purpose. You get what you pay for!! Cheap cheap!!
The case serves it's purpose and protects the phone. However the plastic is not clear and sometimes prevents you from scrolling or you have to press hard to make your selection on the screen. The outer rubber part keeps coming apart from the hard plastic which is annoying. It's ok for the cost of it but I will buy something better quality with a clearer plastic screen next time.
I got this as a spare rugged case. I didnt want to spend the $40+ for the big name brand. For what this sells for it is a good alternative.
This thing could fall apart if you look at it the wrong way! And, unlike the photo of the product, it really looks like a cheap piece of junk. Don't bother.
This seems to be a good case so far. I got it for my wife and she likes it. Nothing fancy, just a decent case
Exactly what I ordered good job.right culler fits good made good
I got this for my daughter tat way she can keep her phone safe :) its a good case:)
The case was bulky and the soft case cover didn't fit properly. The screen saver cover was about 1/8 of an inch off the actual screen of the phone. It was hard to use the phone.

President Barack Obama said in an interview aired Sunday that he would be willing to compromise on a budget deal, but he stood firm on his proposal to raise taxes on households making more than $250,000 per year.
"I'm, you know, more than happy to work with the Republicans," Obama said on CBS's "Face the Nation." "And what I've said is in reducing our deficits, we can make sure that we cut two and a half dollars for every dollar of increased revenue."
The president said deficit reduction cannot happen without a balanced approach that cuts spending and raises taxes on the very wealthy.
"We've got to make government leaner and more efficient, but we've also got to ask people like me or Gov. Romney - who have done better than anybody else over the course of the last decade and whose taxes are just about lower than they've been in the last 50 years - to do a little bit more," he said.
Obama also faulted Republicans, including GOP nominee Mitt Romney, for refusing to budge on their position against raising tax rates as a way to increase revenues.
"Gov. Romney said he wouldn't take a deal with $10 of spending cuts for $1 of revenue increases. And the problem is the math - or the arithmetic, as President Clinton said - doesn't add up," he said, referring to Clinton's Democratic convention speech last week.
Obama's comments come as Congress faces a looming deadline to reach a deficit-reduction plan by the end of the year in order to avoid the so-called fiscal cliff, a massive combination of tax increases and spending cuts set to kick off in January.
The scheduled measures could reduce the federal debt but could also spark a recession with higher unemployment and shrinking GDP, according to a Congressional Budget Office report released last month.
Rep. Paul Ryan, later in the same program, took issue with the president's remarks.
"Well, I had been more than happy to work with him, but he hasn't been acting like that," the GOP vice-presidential nominee said. "You know, what we've learned in this presidency, he says one thing and does another."
Ryan said Obama presented four budgets, "none of which ever, ever proposed to actually balance the budget," and placed blame on the Senate for failing to produce a budget in three years.
"We've passed budgets. We've led," the representative from Wisconsin said. In March, the Republican-controlled House passed Ryan's budget plan, a $3.53 trillion blueprint that includes an overhaul of the nation's tax code and major changes to popular entitlement programs such as Medicare.
