Working In These Times
No Pressure Drop: After NATO Summit, Chicago Labor, Community Groups Protest Rahm and CME
CHICAGO—As anti-NATO protesters left the streets of Chicago last week, union members filled them again, in anticipation of decisions expected this week by the state legislature on a budget that will harm the public welfare.
They were fighting attacks on public workers and public services, some related to budget crises deepened by the lingering effects of the recession, others stemming from politicians' deference to the threats and more insidious influences of big corporations and financial institutions.
On Wednesday, May 23, nearly 5,000 teachers in bright red Chicago Teachers Union T-shirts and supporters marched through downtown streets, protesting the contract demands of Mayor Rahm Emanuel and his school board. In front of the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), in the heart of the city''s financial district, they met up with 1,000 marchers from Stand Up! Chicago—a union-community coalition initiated by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU)—who were part of a day-long series of protests against tax cuts won earlier this year by the hugely profitable CME Group, which owns both the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and CBOT.
Stand Up! Chicago linked the tax cut to the threatened reductions in state funding for childcare for the coming fiscal year, which will make it more difficult for many needy parents to work.
The turnout was so large that organizers did not have space for a planned "die-in" in front of CBOT, intended to symbolize the effects of austerity public policies.
The following day, about 250 members of SEIU and community groups from the service areas of four hospitals heavily dependent on Medicaid to reimburse expenses for patient care protested a $1.7 billion cut in Medicaid spending for the next fiscal year. Legislators approved the cuts later, despite right-wing Republican objections to provisions allowing Cook County—which includes Chicago and some suburbs—to enroll additional Medicaid patients at no cost to the state. They argued the move essentially began implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
The day of actions against the CME Group started when 20 protesters—some in wheelchairs—linked arms in front of the CBOT entrance in protest of both a proposed $210 million cut in state funding for home care for elderly and disabled people and the tax cut for the group controlling the exchanges that handle the majority of futures trading in the United States. Fifteen were arrested as 200 others showed support.
Later in the morning, children, parents and child care providers marched at the state of Illinois office building in the Loop, objecting to child care cutbacks.Then in the afternoon, a delegation of about 60 protesters—stock shares in hand—overwhelmed the CME Group's annual stockholder meeting. Anticipating their arrival, CME Group CEO Terrence Duffy opened the meeting with a defense of the company's threat—successfully deployed by several other corporations as well—to leave the city and state if it did not receive the state tax break. He said CME Group only demanded what other companies already had received.
Worth about $77 million in its first year, the specially carved loophole will cost the state at least $1 billion over a decade, conservatively assuming 10 percent growth (though CME has racked up 19 percent annual growth for three decades).
In the annual meeting, CME tried to limit questions on its taxes to the final minutes and removed everyone who tried to speak earlier and then began chanting "give the money back" and "pay your fair share." But Iraq Veterans Against the War member Alejandro Villatoro—trading his desert khakis for a dark suit and tie—managed to speak in the final session.
"I said I was glad the company was doing well, but I was concerned about our country," Villatoro said later. "It seems the board members had forgotten that we're in the midst of a war, and that everyone in American society was carrying a burden, and they had to carry some burden."
"They're just concerned about their profits and benefits and aren't relating to the rest of us," he said.
At a rally afterwards, retired police officer Charles Brown, from the largely black Englewood neighborhood, said, "you should see how decimated our neighborhood is. CME made millions of dollars last year, and they give nothing back to the communities." And Karen Leyra told of how both her brother and sister had died recently in their forties because of shortcomings in medical care available to them. "It's too late for my brother and sister," she said, "but it's not too late for CME to give back its tax break."
As the spirited group marched down LaSalle Street, past banks and government buildings, they chanted, "corporate welfare has to go," and carried signs with messages like, "Our money, our banks, our CME, our Chicago."
On the other side of the Loop, Ron Barbercheck, a former banker, was also marching. Now a third-grade teacher with a Harvard M.A. in education and 14 years experience, Barbercheck said the big turnout showed teachers "stand united for respect and dignity."
As a result of the unilateral changes in school practices, a denigrating stance towards teachers, and a tough line on contract talks from Emanuel, Barbercheck said, "Morale is low, people feel disrespected." Nobody wants a strike, he said, but "people have had enough."

Funny Groom Speeches always go down well with the audience so I can recommend adding a few funny jokes or stories to your Groom Speech. It's your day as well and you don't want the best mans speech to get all the laughs!
The best thing about telling a few funny stories is the laughter relaxes you and gives you confidence. I'm not a natural speaker and without the Wedding Speech Examples and funny stories I told I doubt I would have made it through the speech.
In all seriousness I think sprinkling your speech with a bit of humour helps you and the rest of the guests to relax and enjoy the day. I'm sure you would agree that any totally serious Wedding Speech seems to drag on and on.
Funny Grooms Speech – Keeping The Guests Involved
I found that adding some jokes and stories kept the audience involved and held their attention. However there are some rules you must follow as I found out when I read Groom Wedding Speeches before my big day.
First of all you still want your Grooms Speech to be heartfelt, so I think it is best to start with something serious and finish with something poignant. You can sprinkle the middle of the groom's speech with some funny stories and jokes.
Be careful not to offend anyone, particularly the bride or any of her family, otherwise your Wedding Day will be memorable for all the wrong reasons!
Making Fun of Yourself
The funniest Groom Speeches are when the Groom also pokes fun at himself, this always goes down well with the guests. I also followed this technique and it stopped me getting too emotional on the day.
Remember to involve the audience, making sure you don't fix your gaze in one place. It is always best to look around the room which will keep the guests focused on you and your speech.
When you are delivering your Grooms Speech make sure you deliver it in a friendly way. Remember this is not a work presentation so stay relaxed. A great tip I got from one of the Wedding Speech Examples I got was to talk to the audience as if I was talking to a friend at a bar. This helped relax me and I'm sure it will do the same for you.
One of the little jokes that went down well in my Groom Wedding Speech poked fun gently at the bride and got a good laugh. You can use it but remember to change the names!
"I must confess I tricked (bride's name) in to marrying me… (long pause) I told her she was pregnant".
This little joke was one that was non offensive and appealed to the whole audience, feel free to use it.
I'm sure these little tips will set you on your way to having a funny grooms speech, to really help you on your way you might want to try a few wedding speech examples, they practically wrote my speech for me. You can visit the site of the groom speech examples that helped me by CLICKING HERE.

Cougars Rally Past Pirates, 3-1
Oct. 31, 2009 HOUSTON, Texas - The East Carolina volleyball team won the first set of its match against Houston Saturday night, but could not hold on, falling in four sets (25-22, 10-25, 15-25, 12-25) at the Athletics/Alumni Center. The Pirates dropped their fourth-straight contest and are now 9-16 overall and 2-11 in Conference USA play while the Cougars improve to 9-19 in 2009 and 6-7 in league action. Houston edged ahead 6-3 in the first set and led by as much as 14-11 before ECU mounted a comeback, scoring eight of the next nine points to hold a 19-15 advantage. The Pirates then out-scored the hosts 5-3 to earn their first set point at 24-18, but the Cougars were not done. Houston took the next four points but East Carolina used a Kelly Derby kill to close out the frame. The Pirates were never in the second interval, allowing the Cougars to score 17 points before they even reached four. ECU would put just six more points on the board, allowing Houston to even the match at one set a piece. After the intermission, the Cougars took a 6-5 lead and would extend it to 12-9. The Pirates scored the next point to pull within 12-10, but a Houston 8-3 run made the score 20-13 before the Cougars closed out the set with a 5-2 stretch. East Carolina notched the first point of the fourth frame, but Houston took the next 10 of 13 points to establish a 10-4 advantage. The Pirates could not recover, as the Cougars cruised to the contest win. Senior Stephanie Turner and junior Lizzy Bruin turned in eight kills each to lead the ECU offense while Turner also produced a squad-best 12 digs. Redshirt freshman Briana Fleener continued her strong play at the net, recording eight blocks assists and has 26 in her last four outings. The Pirates continued to struggle offensively, hitting just .027 in the four sets while Houston showed at .309. The Cougars also held the decided advantage in kills (57-30) and digs (60-39). East Carolina did out-block Houston 11-9, marking the 16th time this season that the Pirates have out-done their foes in the statistic.
ECU, having closed out its road schedule for the season, returns home for three matches to end the regular season. The Pirates host Memphis on Friday, Nov. 6 at 7 p.m. in a contest that will be shown on CBS College Sports tape delay basis on Nov. 10 at 7 p.m. |

Joe Wolverton, II, J.D.
Man Arrested in Mass. Suspected of Being OKC "John Doe No. 2"
There are credible indications that a man arrested earlier this week in Quincy, Massachusetts is the infamous "John Doe No. 2" named in the investigation following the 1995 bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City.
Arizona Shooting & the Assault on Rights
No sooner had news vans arrived to broadcast from Tucson than the lobbyists and legislators began the shameful molding of this massacre into a pawn in their partisan chess match. The chorus sang in unison of the need to confiscate guns and clips so that scenes as heartbreaking as this never need be witnessed again. Guns, they cried, are the cause of this mayhem and the eradication of them will prevent future recurrences.
Tucson Shooter Held Without Bail After Initial Appearance
Jared Loughner, the 22-year-old man accused of killing six people and wounding at least 15 others, including Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, outside a grocery store in Tucson, Arizona, has been denied bail and was formally appointed an attorney.
Christie Commutes Aitken's Gun Possession Sentence
On Monday, Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey signed an order commuting Brian Aitken's sentence from seven years to time served.
Aitken was convicted in early 2009 in New Jersey for illegally possessing two handguns, a "high capacity magazine," and hollow point ammunition, all of which he purchased legally from a Bass Pro Shop outlet in Colorado.
Testimony in Hearing of Accused Ft. Hood Shooter Begins
The Article 32 hearing in the case of army Major Nidal Hasan, the man accused of killing 13 people at a readiness center on Ft. Hood, Texas, commenced on October 13 as a judge overruled a request by Hasan's defense team for a continuance.
Drug Money Props Up Banks During Recession
"The secret of grand fortunes without apparent cause is a crime forgotten, for it was properly done." These are the words of renowned French author, Honore de Balzac in his book, Pere Goriot. While Balzac is often quoted, never were the words so timely as those quoted above. In an astonishingly overlooked article published in the U.K. newspaper, the Guardian in December 2009, the head of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime declared that billions of dollars in illicit drug money sustained the global financial system during the zenith of the worldwide recession.

BMW has been named the most sustainable automotive company in the recent Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) results. This is BMW's seventh consecutive year at the top of the charts in the Automobiles and Parts sector.
The DJSI ranks 2500 of the world's largest corporations according to their environmental impact and in terms of of economic, environmental and social criteria. The rankings were introduced in 1999, and since then, BMW has been the only automotive manufacturer to appear in the list of indexes for every subsequent year.
BMW first introduced an environmental officer specifically to guide BMW into environmentally-friendly paths, and was regarded as the first manufacturer to hire such staff in the world at the time. In 2009, BMW introduced the Sustainability Board, which consisted of all members of the Board of Management at BMW. Dr Norbert Reithofer, chairman of the Board of Management of BMW AG, recently said,
"The success of the BMW Group is built on a long-term approach and responsible action. We are pleased to be recognised by the renowned Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes.
"Being ranked sector leader for the last seven years underscores our corporate strategy and approach. I would like to thank all of our company's 95,000 employees whose day-to-day work makes this progress possible."

Town Planning and … Cycling
Transport planning is decided within the realms of local and national government within a long timescale of 5-10 years, so knocking on the door with a request to put in a new cycle lane is not going to meet with any hurry to do anything. National policies lead into local policies which lead into local plans. These get or don't get treasury funding, plus there are housing plans and developer proposals to be dealt with.
On the whole, there are a lot of plans for transport infrastructure – many of which were committed to, and funding earmarked, several years ago.
Priorities have been set to encourage both walking and cycling. After people with disabilities cycles and walkers are supposed to get the 2nd highest priority in road design. Indeed, when you add up all the signs, street furniture, asphalt and paint related to cycling, you can see cycle related things nearly everywhere in town. However, it is mainly aimed at warning motor traffic that cyclists exist, the lanes themselves are very patchy and do not allow you to go where you want to go in a direct line.
On the positive side there are several routes from outside Worcester which bring you in through some suburbs, such as Lower Wick, Hallow, Henwick and Perdiswell, and an "orbital pedway", from St Peter's around to Warndon. It's quite good for a pleasant leisurely ride around the suburbs, but not from where you live to where you work – which would cover 2 out of the daily average of 3 trips we generally take.
The good news is that there are plans to run 3 new cycle routes!
- City Walls Rd to County Hall – via Wylds Lane and Perry Wood
- Arboretum to Warndon & Trotshill, via Tunnel Hill and Gorse Hill
- Broadheath to Sabrina Bridge
These are some of the aspects of Sustainable Transport inWorcesterthat we shall be covering in our next meeting on 20th October. Please come along…

Lavrov said the coalition leader should "realize it would be in his own interests to hear our analysis directly from us."
Lavrov rejected the opposition claim that Russia's continuing weapons supplies to Assad's regime make it responsible for mass killings in Syria, saying that Moscow bears no responsibility for the Soviet-era weapons in Syrian arsenals. He said that defensive weapons such as anti-aircraft missiles that Russia has continued to supply to Damascus couldn't be used in the civil war.
"We aren't providing the Syrian regime with any offensive weapons or weapons that could be used in a civil war," Lavrov said. "And we have no leverage over what the regime has got since the Soviet times."
Georgy Mirsky, a leading Mideast expert with the Institute for World Economy and International Relations, a top foreign policy think tank, said President Vladimir Putin's stand on Syria is rooted in fear that joining international calls for Assad's resignation would make him look weak at home.
"It would look like an inadmissible concession to America, a virtual surrender. The Kremlin would lose its face, look like a loser," said Mirsky.
He wrote in his blog that Putin is resigned to Assad's eventual collapse and the loss of any Russian influence in a future Syria, but firmly opposes international sanctions. That stand allows Putin to tell his domestic audience that Russia has defended its ally until the end against overwhelming odds, said Mirsky.

The packaging makes it sound enticing. However it doesn't slice well for sandwiches, too crumbly in texture. The flavour was not bad, although we mostly used it crumbled up on gratins and cheese sauces. Don't think we'll buy it again, unless I have the above intentions in mind.

Decent family cheese
I think the reviews are too harsh! This cheese has some flavour but not too strong for kids. We have eaten loads in sandwiches, wraps, omelettes etc this summer.

Independent agencies, which are not subject to an executive order, may still adopt the voluntary standards and apply them to sectors they regulate, officials said. In some sectors, the administration may already have the authority to impose mandatory cybersecurity standards. One issue being debated as part of the executive order is whether the administration should use that authority.
Some national security experts said the voluntary approach misses an opportunity. If the administration does not mandate standards in some areas, "they're timid," said Richard A. Clarke, a White House counterterrorism and cybersecurity adviser under the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush administrations.

Housing group transfers 112 homes to local landlords
Southern Housing Group (SHG) has completed the first batch of its "stock rationalisation programme", transferring 112 homes in Kent and East Sussex to local landlords.
SHG – which owns and manages 25,000 homes in the South of England - has transferred the homes to two separate Registered Providers: West Kent Housing Association and Town & Country Housing Group, raising approximately £6.5 million.
The transfer, which represents the first of four batches in SHG's 2011-2014 Stock Rationalisation Programme, was completed on 13 February 2012 following a successful competitive tendering process facilitated by Faithorn Farrell Timms.
Stephen Ross, Reinvestment Director at SHG, said: "The successful conclusion of this first tranche of disposals marks the realisation of our stock rationalisation strategy to gain efficiencies from reducing the number of Local Authority areas in which we operate to target resources in our heartland areas.
"The strategy will, over time, reap benefits for our residents in terms of long-term investment in their homes and the development of new housing."
Stuart May, Head of Housing Consultancy at Faithorn Farrell Timms, said the transfer represented "a successful result for all three parties, while also achieving excellent value for money with the residents transferring to more locally-based landlords".
He added: "The internal resources and commitment required to deliver these detailed and sensitive transfers should not be underestimated and SHGL has reacted with an excellent collaborative approach.
"This sale has paved the way for the wider disposal programme and we are looking forward to pushing forward with the next batch."
The second phase of the programme will see 800 homes from SHG's stock transferred to several landlords.

DENVER, Colo. - Southern Utah University gymnast Rochelle Bernier has been named the Western Athletic Conference specialist of the week after recording a 9.900 on vault at Utah State last week.
Bernier's mark is the sixth highest in school history and also represented a career best for the Edmonton, Alberta native. The 9.900 came after a fall on the balance beam, where she scored a 9.125, showing her ability to bounce back from adversity. The sophomore also appeared on the uneven bars for the Thunderbirds, scoring a 9.700 and finishing in the top five on the event. Southern Utah will be back in action this week with the team's home opener against Utah State set for Friday night at 7:00 p.m. Fans can follow the meet via live stat and live video links anticipated to be available online at www.suutbirds.com.

Archives Tuesday, July 05, 2005 Canada Day!
One of Canada's remote provinces launches its two fireworks. REGRET.
Yeah, it's a bit late. Canada
Day is really celebrated on July 1, but it's impossible to pay
attention to it until after the July 4th festivities are over. Even
now, I feel kind of guilty discussing Canada Day without having done
more to reemphasize the profound significance of the American
Independence Day. Yet it may be the case that focusing on the Canadian
counterpart will do exactly that. The only possible meaning Canada
represents to the U.S., after all, is as a vivid example of "the road
not taken."
There were British North American colonies in the 18th century who revolted against Britain and colonies who didn't. That is the real distinction between our two countries. The Canadian colonies preferred monarchical despotism to freedom if the price for freedom was war. Ever since, the Canadian colonists and their descendants have had to salve their egoes by pretending that they made the better bargain, which can only be true if there is something inherently better about the culture they fell into by refusing to shape their own independently. The contemporary commentators who are busily looking for the causes of Canada's recent and increasingly strident slanders of their southern neighbor tend to overlook this first, most important explanation of the hostility. It's not that they have become, through a series of passive accidents, more left wing in their politics than the U.S. It's not that their European worldliness and wisdom alerted them in advance to the dangers of a conservative, God-fearing Texan as President of the United States. It's not that their loftier "green" sensibility has given rise to some new conviction of moral superiority over the more densely industrialized nation to the south. It's that Canada has failed in every possible way to prove to us or themselves that they really were smarter to remain in thrall to a king who ruled their lives from an ocean away. And the bitter consequences of that failure are growing more acute and undeniable every day. What does Canada Day celebrate? Not the fierce announcement of separation from the Crown documented in our Declaration of Independence, but a beneficent act of the British Parliament to set them free from afar: British North American politicians held
the Charlottetown Conference and Quebec Conference, 1864 to
work out the details of a federal union. On July 1, 1867, with the
passing of the British North America Act by the Parliament of the
United Kingdom, three colonies of British North America (the
Province of Canada, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia) became a federation
styled the Dominion of Canada. It consisted of four provinces, Ontario,
Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia.
There are three additional points of interest about this history. First, Canadians had attempted armed rebellion against the Crown at least twice before in the 1830s but failed. Second, the province of New Brunswick was originally created because of the influx of American Tories who fled or were expelled from America for refusing to back the American independence movement. Third, the "Canada Day" which now celebrates this largely bureaucratic event was called "Dominion Day" until 1982. The word offers an interesting mix of connotations. Does it mean "Release from British Dominion" Day? Or "At Last We Finally Have Dominion Over Ourselves" Day? Actually, neither one is completely correct, because it wasn't until 1931 that another act of the Brit Parliament accorded Canada a national status equal to the U.K., which status was earned by the United States in 1783 with the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown. It's not hard to see why 'Dominion Day" was officially deep-sixed after a typically Canadian period of inaction. It's ironic indeed that Canada Day happens to fall three days before American Independence Day on the calendar, as if they somehow preceded us into national adulthood. Is this why the Canadians insist on imitating our means of celebrating our Independence Day, with parades and fireworks? (Unless their firecrackers are intended to duplicate the sound of British MPs snapping their valises shut after the critical session of Parliament...?) There may be many Americans who are fooled by this, especially since we are so used to being regarded as a young country by the nations of the Old World with whom Canada has continued to associate itself. But it's worthwhile to remember that as a nation Canada is only 138 years old compared to our 229, which is, by the way, the oldest continuous government in the world, with the sole exception of the U.K. Canada is in reality our ne'er-do-well younger brother. Too harsh, you say? Consider that Canada is the second largest country on earth in terms of territory. Yet it has just over a tenth of the population of the U.S. We grew because we were attractive as a home and a way of life to people from around the globe, who flocked here to make this country the richest and most powerful in the history of civilization. During the same period of time, Canada has not only languished in terms of population but lagged in terms of per capita GDP -- just 75 percent of ours -- despite the boasts of its derivative Brit-Labor-Party style government. And much of the income they do enjoy is a by-product of their proximity to us: 90 percent of Canadians live within 100 miles of the Unites States. Canada is the younger brother we find ways of supporting that he doesn't have to acknowledge so that he can retain his fragile pride. But little brother also has more problems in his homelife. For a quarter century Canada has teetered on the edge of breakup as its French province Quebec intermittently sues for divorce. Canadian unity has not been annealed by a counterpart to the American Civil War, which may have saved some lives in the short run, but the result is that Canada can never be united by a set of founding ideas, as we have been, because their unity consists principally of the geographic accident that its components were the last leavings of the British colonial experiment in North America. In fact, Canada still styles itself as a "confederation," which is the same loose affiliation tried out by the United States before its failure prompted the writing of the Constitution. The metaphor of troubled homelife suggests the image of the unhappy wife. Is it mere coincidence that the carefully compiled list of Canadian celebrities includes the likes of k.d. lang, Joni Mitchell, Alanis Morrisette, Sara MacLachlan, Jann Arden, and Nellie Furtado? Probably. But it's hard not to see some basis in Canadian culture for all those intense "songs about myself" offered up by the sad-voiced girls on their acoustic guitars. And it's not just the women. Who sounds more consistently miserable than Neil Young, Gordon Lightfoot, and Leonard Cohen? Is it any wonder that Canada will seize on every opportunity to badmouth its taller, stronger, happier, and more prosperous older brother? Fredo couldn't help resenting his Godfather brother Michael for dominating his life. He couldn't help betraying him at every opportunity. And when you ally yourselves with the enemies of your friends, some part of their ill intentions will rub off on you. That's the story of one of Canada's more recent betrayals, the subversion of the American military and legal institutions it sponsored during the Vietnam War. A large number of draft dodgers, young
men facing conscription for the Vietnam War, decided to relocate to
Canada rather than serve in the armed forces. Concentrated in Montreal,
Toronto and Vancouver, this group was at first assisted by the Student
Union for Peace Action, a campus-based Canadian anti-war group with
connections to Students for a Democratic Society in the United States.
Canadian immigration policy at the time made it easy for immigrants
from all countries to obtain legal status in Canada. By late 1967,
dodgers were being assisted primarily by over 20 independent and
locally based anti-draft groups, such as the Toronto Anti-Draft
Programme (http://www.radicalmiddle.com/tadp.htm).
Following the dodgers, deserters from the American forces also made their way to Canada. There was pressure from the United States and Canada to have them arrested, or at least stopped at the border. In May 1969 the Canadian government ceased its active discrimination against deserters after facing extensive criticism. The population of draft dodgers had an impact on Canadian society. The influx of young, educated, and left-leaning individuals affected Canada's academic and cultural institutions. These new arrivals tended to balance the "brain drain" that Canada had experienced. Canada resented the American policy in Vietnam and Lyndon Johnson's anger at their dissension from his leadership. So they plighted their troth with a set of fugitives who reminded them of their own Tory origins. Yet they couldn't help remembering that fugitives are losers in the long run. This knowledge only compounded their animus against the U.S., which now has to be continually refreshed and rejustified to smother its unwelcome implications about themselves. Can there be any doubt that this is what is going on with the Canadian response to the Iraq War? Nationally, they are so weak they can't field an army of more than 1,000 or so combat troops, and they don't dare test national unity (Quebec!) by attempting a controversial foreign commitment. All that's left is pillorying the United States for its very lack of the weaknesses that so cripple Canada -- particularly the strong national identity shared by Americans. In the United States we have a pledge of allegiance to the flag. In Canada, the flag is a recently adjudicated compromise, not a symbolic embodiment of the country's defining experience, but an irrelevant homage to a species of tree. The red and white used in the National
Flag of Canada were proclaimed
the official colours of Canada in 1921 by King George V. Although the
maple leaf did not have official status as an emblem of Canada until
the proclamation of the national flag in 1965, it had historically been
used as a Canadian symbol, and was used in 1860 in decorations for the
visit of the Prince of Wales to Canada. The 11 points on the maple leaf
have no special significance.
Canadians themselves are suspicious about the validity of their flag, which is why they continue to harbor paranoid fears that the more potent American flag is being smuggled into their currency. It's difficult to maintain a national
identity in a country where nearly all of the inhabitants live within a
few miles of the USA, so you can hardly blame Canadians for sometimes
feeling that Americans are infiltrating every last aspect of their
culture. A tangible expression of this feeling occurred during the
1980s, when every time the Bank of Canada introduced currency with new
designs, somebody managed to find American flags hidden in the artwork.
The fun began with the introduction of
a new $5 bill in May 1986...
The introduction of a new $2 bill in September 1986 brought claims that it, too, depicted an American flag flying over Parliament (a claim which continues to circulate widely on one of those ubiquitous Internet lists of unusual "facts")... Three years later, when the Bank of Canada introduced a new $10 bill, the same old rumor was trotted out yet again (perhaps spurred by the implementation of the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement earlier that year)... The real problem, of course, is the flag itself. Like the weak country it weakly symbolizes, it is, well, weak. There can be no pledge of allegiance to a maple leaf, which is why we have witnessed the sad specter of an unofficial Canadian statement of general national allegiance spawned in a beer commercial: Every once in a while a bit of I am
Canadian! advertising emerges overnight as a definitive piece of
popular culture. That was the case with the Molson Canadian commercial
"The Rant," (aka "Joe's Rant") which debuted in late March 2000.
(Molson is a noted brewer in Canada, and Canadian is but one of this
family of beers, which also includes Golden, Brador, Export, Ice, and
Molson Canadian, a beer lagging in popularity, (got) an instantaneous boost in sales with 19-to-29-year-old men, but the ad established itself with the non-beer crowd as a passionate declaration of national pride. Many have come to see The Rant as a Canadian gospel of sorts, and reactions to it range from choked up to shouting along with its script. The ad is deceptively simple, merely featuring an "ordinary Joe" alone on a stage in front of a slide show of various Canadian backgrounds that cycle while he vents a litany of corrections to common misperceptions about Canadians. The Rant has become a tidal wave of Canadian affirmation. What, you ask, could inspire such fevered adulation? Here it is: Hey. I'm not a
lumberjack, or a fur trader.
And I don't live in an igloo, or eat blubber, or own a dogsled. And I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I'm certain they're really, really nice. I have a Prime Minister, not a President. I speak English and French, NOT American. and I pronounce it 'ABOUT', NOT 'A BOOT'. I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack. I believe in peace keeping, NOT policing. DIVERSITY, NOT assimilation, AND THAT THE BEAVER IS A TRULY PROUD AND NOBLE ANIMAL. A TOQUE IS A HAT, A CHESTERFIELD IS A COUCH, AND IT IS PRONOUCED 'ZED' NOT 'ZEE', 'ZED'!!! CANADA IS THE SECOND LARGEST LANDMASS! THE FIRST NATION OF HOCKEY! AND THE BEST PART OF NORTH AMERICA! MY NAME IS JOE!! AND I AM CANADIAN!!!!!!!! Thank you. Oka-a-a-ay. All those capital letters are obviously aimed at the citizens of the United States: no need to shout them to a fellow Canadian. The fact that this has been described as a unifying cri de coeur for Canada suggests that we are the only buttress they have for a national identity. They are united by their resentment of us. And unfortunately, because that resentment goes all the way back to the War for Independence they never had, it will never go away. In a recent article in Maclean's magazine, Fox News anchor John Gibson ascribed Canadian hostility to envy: When I wrote Hating America, the New World Sport in 2003, the chapter that included Canada (sorry, you shared space with Belgium and South Korea) was called "The Axis of Envy." The Iraq war was fresh. Canadians were sure they only had to yell loud enough to be heard across the border and even the thick-headed Americans would get it. Then came the U.S. election and we notice you haven't had much to say lately. But as you celebrate your national holiday, I suspect the truth about your innermost sentiment still applies: that precious and delicious pleasure called anti-Americanism is as strong as ever, isn't it? I thought so. But I disagree with Mr. Gibson. Envy is about something we think we deserve, or might have had, or should somehow be able to take. The Canadian hostility is deeper than that. The fatal fork in the road was a long long time ago, and there is absolutely no hope that they have the capacity to achieve or steal or blackmail from others (as Belgians and Koreans might still think they can via fair means or foul) what they most lack and most detest in us: Greatness. Happy Canada Day. Their fireworks are their exploded dreams, which still shimmer and glow before their eyes like a vision of long lost paradise. Does all of this tell us anything about ourselves? I believe so. But for the miraculous wisdom and courage of our founding fathers, the United States might be just like Canada, with a population of 30 million enervated Europeans, an incompetent socialist government, a social and cultural history lacking in brilliance or innovation, and a role in world politics as irascible pawn of the United Kingdom. Indeed, we might be several such nations, 7 to 10 million strong (or weak), quibbling and sniping and sneering at one another from sea to shining sea. Look at Canada with fresh eyes. It's what we could easily have settled for, a passive mediocrity destined to be a footnote in the history of man. Thank God for the road we took instead, and the giants who built that road so long ago. POP QUIZ FOR AMERICANS: Quick. Name a famous Canadian political figure besides Margaret Trudeau (NSFW). Does it matter? No. |

The manager of the Phillies and his fiancé, Melissa Martin, came earlier and went to a Salvation Army relief center in Ortley Beach to volunteer.
"It was absolutely astounding when you go down and you look and see that it's three months after the storm and how it still looks," said Manuel, who enters his ninth season as Phillies manager.
Manuel has lived in South Jersey for the duration of his tenure with the Phillies. Although he did not suffer any damage to his property, he felt a direct connection and was certainly upset for those who did.
"It is saddening when you look in and see that people had nice homes and definitely enjoyed where they lived and the scenery and the beach." He added: "It's unbelievable to stop and think of the storm like Sandy can be so destructive."
Manuel and Martin boarded a Salvation Army truck and delivered snacks and warm beverages to work crews and residents still trying to recover three months after the storm hit in October.
"I really enjoyed meeting the people that are out there working and the people that are trying to clean up and still got quite a ways to go," said Manuel.
He was pleased he was able to donate his time for service on the Shore, but Manuel added that attention needs to stay on the area and that there is still a greater need for aid.
"I really enjoyed it, but the biggest part about it was that they need help and I think that everybody in the United States knows that."

This 4-Step Coding Process Grabs $125 Extra in Vasectomy-Related Payment
Posted on 10. Jul, 2009 by in Hot Coding Topics
Turn to V25.x for your diagnosis code choice.
Vasectomies are commonplace in most urology practices. But choosing the proper codes to report can prove challenging, starting with the pre-vasectomy "consultation" visit most urologists perform. If you're not billing out each piece of the vasectomy process, you could be costing your practice hundreds over the course of one year. Follow these four steps to ensure you capture all the reimbursement your urologist deserves.
1. Avoid Automatically Assigning Consult Codes for the First Visit
Before a urologist performs a vasectomy, he usually meets with the patient to discuss the procedure and ensure that the patient understands the consequences of the procedure and wishes to undergo this elective sterilization. You'll report this office visit using the appropriate E/M code, says Kelly Young, a coder with Scottsdale Center for Urology in Scottsdale, Ariz.
The coding challenge comes when you try to determine whether you should be reporting an office visit E/M code or a consultation code.
Depending on your urologist's documentation, you'll choose from the consultation codes (99241-99245, Office consultation for a new or established patient …), a new patient (99201-99205, Office or other outpatient visit for the evaluation and management of a new patient …), or established patient (99211-99215, Office or other outpatient visit for the evaluation and management of an established patient …) codes.
See the dollar signs: If you skip reporting the pre-vasectomy office visit, you're forfeiting money. For example, if your urologist performs a level-three new patient visit (99203), you'll earn $91.97 (the unadjusted fee for 99203, 2.55 RVUs, times the 2009 conversion rate of $36.0666) in addition to the procedure code, and if your urologist performs a level-three consultation, you'll earn $125.15 (the unadjusted fee for 99203, 3.47 RVUs, times the 2009...

The game of Go expresses "a psychological essence" of the Far East, according to the British Museum's Dr Irving Finkel. It's ancient, but no-one knows quite how old - the claim that it originated 4,000 years ago is open to question. What's beyond doubt is its place in oriental culture. The remarkable cave of Buddhist treasures discovered at Dunhuang on the Silk Road through China included a 6th century Go manual now kept in the British Library. Miniature Go boards and pieces have turned up in ancient burial sites. In the twentieth century, some of Japan's finest writers turned to Go for inspiration, following major games and probing the psychology of the top players. And, as the first atomic bomb fell, two of the world's best exponents of Go were playing a title match on the outskirts of Hiroshima.
But Go is little known in the West. This is in spite of the efforts of one of the two players in what became known as the Atom Bomb Game, Iwamoto Kaoru, who spent his later years setting up Go Centres in Europe and the Americas.
In Why Go?, Chris Ledgard explores the world of Go, talking to experts in the East and West about the game's history and culture, and examining some its ancient artefacts. Dr Finkel discusses Go's place in the history of games. After Go, he says, "you could argue that the world's board games went downhill." Susan Whitfield, the Director of the International Dunhuang Project, brings the fifteen hundred year Go manual out of storage and explains how it was discovered and what it tells us. Britain's two foremost experts on the game describe how they got hooked, and Chris Ledgard visits Amsterdam to examine Iwamoto Kaoru's legacy and find out why, in spite of all the time and money he spent, relatively few people in Europe play the game.
Go's Chinese name is weiqi, which is often translated as "the surrounding game". It's a game of co-existence. Two players, one with black stones the other with white, place their pieces on the intersections of a board marked with 19 x 19 lines. The aim is to secure territory and the emphasis is on long-term strategy, subtlety, and not bludgeoning your opponent. In Why Go?, Rob Foster, a translator of the Dunhuang manal, describes the game as "a conversation...it's hand talk". And the programme addresses the key question of whether - as some argue - Go reflects aspects of oriental thinking and is a game few western players really understand.

text: The Treasures of Ancient Rome Series 1 - 3. The Empire Strikes Back Share: Play clip Radio Times Review by: Gill Crawford As the golden days of the Roman Empire began to wane in the third century, you might expect the standard of Roman art to do the same, but in the last episode of his fascinating series Alistair Sooke sets out to show that creativity thrived in these tumultuous times. Although he has to go slightly further afield than Rome itself to prove his thesis. Some of the finest mosaics, silver and glassware ever created in the ancient world actually came from the furthest edges of the empire, whether from the cities of Libya, the oases of Egypt or even closer to home here in Britain. You can't fail to be awed by the craftsmanship of the Mildenhall Great Dish in the British Museum. About this programme 3/3. Alastair Sooke examines the fall of the Empire through the art produced during the years of its decline. He visits Libya, where he examines mosaics that have previously never been caught on film as he tours Leptis Magna, one of the best preserved Roman cities in the world. He also travels to Egypt and the northern frontiers of the Republic, encountering paintings of mummies, as well as impressive silver and glassware. Last in the series.

This little oven cooks food to perfection. We loved it !!! We have had to return 3 cookers to Lakeland as they were electrically faulty, and repeatedly blew all the house plug fuses. This happened when we lifted the lid so I think something was wrong with the handle. We were responsible for blowing out fuses on a caravan site, and therefore unable to cook with it on holiday. If I could only get an explanation and a reassurance that this could not happen again I would purchase again.

Cory Bailey finishes 17th in 800-meter run on Day 2 of NCAA III Outdoor Track & Field Championships
By Tim Glon
| NCAA III Championships Site |
CLAREMONT, Calif. — Ohio Northern senior Cory Bailey finished 17th out of 20 runners in the 800-meter run on a chilly, breezy Friday night at the NCAA III Men's Outdoor Track & Field Championships Friday night at Burns Field on the campus of Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Colleges.
Bailey finished fifth in his heat in 1:53.87 and finished just .35 of a second away from qualifying for Saturday's finals.
Bailey entered the meet seeded 20th.
"I was nervous at first," Bailey said. "But once I got started, I just went with it and had a blast. It was a great experience and something I will always remember. I'm happy with the performance, too."
"He ran great," ONU head coach Jason Maus said. "He certainly proved that he belonged at the national meet. He was competitive, ran a solid race and beat a few guys. We are very happy for him."
The third and final day of the championships will be on Saturday.
ONU senior Dan Smith will run in the finals of the 1,500-meter run at 6 pm (EST).
