text: After the defeat of Proposition 75, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's failed attempt to limit public unions' ability to engage in political activity, Ron Senger decided to ask about how his union dues were being spent.Senger, a streetlighting engineer with the Department of Public Works and a member of the Engineers and Architects Association (EAA), went down to the City Clerk's Council and Public Services Division and asked to see EAA's financial reports, which are required by the city administrative code to be filed within 60 days of the end of each fiscal year. A clerk told him that EAA had not filed a report since 2003. He then called EAA and told a representative that he wanted to come by and look at the books.Senger was dismayed, he says, when EAA staff coordinator Angel Calvo invited him into a room and talked at length, but declined to show him EAA's balance sheet from last year. Senger became incensed, he says, when EAA's assistant executive director Patricia Loparo entered the room, told Senger the meeting was over and threatened to call security if he did not leave."Calvo was a nice guy, kind of like a used-car salesman, but he kept insisting that no one really wants to see how the sausage is made," Senger said on Tuesday, adding that he is considering legal options, including filing an unfair labor practices action with the Employee Relations Board. "I don't know what all the secrecy is about."Complicating matters is that EAA, which has been without a contract since June 2004, has been threatening to strike if the city does not pay its members the same as the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 18, whose members earn up to 60 percent more than other city workers. About 90 EAA members demonstrated at the airport on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. On Tuesday, 300 EAA members picketed at the Department of Water and Power headquarters, where 95 percent of the employees are IBEW members. Senger, who has worked for the city for 15 years, said he supports parity with IBEW, but he sees a disconnect between EAA and its members, a white-collar work force of more than 8,000 that includes police crime lab workers, airport runway supervisors, management analysts and computer technicians. "They are trying to represent people who are trained to ask questions, but they don't want to share information," he said. "They want us to rally and wear strike T-shirts. Yet they communicate through propaganda." EAA's executive director Robert Aquino did not return calls for comment. Nor did Calvo or Loparo. Last Friday, after the Weekly reported that EAA members and city labor leaders were questioning Aquino's credibility and being skeptical of his bargaining methods, EAA president Michael Davies lashed out: "Talking to a journalist is one thing, but a gossip columnist is another," he said, when invited to discuss his concerns on behalf of EAA. On Tuesday, Davies declined to answer calls for comment on Senger's experience.Doug Collins, former head of the Employee Relations Board and now a private arbitrator in Hermosa Beach, says he is not surprised by Senger's experience or the reaction by EAA's president. "With most unions the books are open," Collins said. "Ever since this new crowd has taken over EAA it's been quite different. You can speculate about reasons, but it's obvious there is a small group of people in charge and they want to maintain control."Prompted by Senger's report of his experience, the Weekly visited the city clerk this week to see whether EAA had filed its financial report for 2004. The file contained a letter from City Clerk Frank Martinez to the EAA, dated March 17, 2005, stating that EAA is "delinquent in filing its information" required by Section 4.820 of the city administrative code. The last time EAA filed a financial report was July 30, 2003, after receiving a similar notice of delinquency on May 29, 2003, from former City Clerk J. Michael Clarey. EAA also had received notices in 2001 and 2002 urging it to file information with the city. Before that, EAA had not filed a financial report with the city since 1997.EAA is not alone. A review of city files on "qualified recognized employee organizations" — unions that collect dues from members and represent those members in collective-bargaining efforts — reveals that most unions flout the legal requirements for providing financial reports to the city. Which means that union members like Ron Senger, if they want to know more about where their paycheck deduction is going, have to confront their leaders and ask for answers.Of the 20 union files reviewed, only eight contain current financial reports. Almost all contain letters from Martinez sent out in March, reminding union leaders of their overdue obligation to file financial reports. IBEW Local 18 and Service Employees International Union Local 347, two of the city's largest and most influential unions, filed financial reports in the last 12 months. All-City Employee's Association Local 3090 filed a current financial report as well. Teamsters Local 911 is up-to-date. So is the Los Angeles Police Command Officers Association and the Los Angeles Port Police Association.Some notable delinquents include the Los Angeles Police Protective League, which doesn't have a single financial report on file with the city. The United Firefighters of Los Angeles Local 112 last filed a financial report in June 2003.Then there's the Los Angeles City Professional Medical Employees Local 2006, which has not filed a financial report since 1990, according to city files. The International Union of Operating Engineers Local 501 last filed in 2003 after receiving a delinquency notice, and before that it had not filed since 2000. The Los Angeles Airport Peace Officers Association has not filed since 2003, when it filed a financial report from 2002, but it offered an excuse: "Due to the high alerted security status at Los Angeles Airport, our response has been delayed," states a July 10, 2003, letter from union president George Jarvis to Konrad Carter in the City Clerk's Office.Asked why so many unions ignore the law, Collins says, "Because they can get away with it. No one has ever rigorously enforced the law." City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo and City Clerk Frank Martinez did not respond to requests for comment. Assistant City Administrative Officer Royce Menkus told the Weekly, "This dates back many years, and we've never come up with an enforcement mechanism. We assume unions complied unless we're told otherwise."The information gap has its limitations. Employees can opt out of paying dues and instead pay an agency fee that is supposed to be less than union dues. State law requires unions to disclose financial information to employees who pay agency fees.But along with union dues come voting rights and, theoretically, the right to participate in what the union is doing with its members' money. Collins says one of the biggest lies of the Prop. 75 campaign was to tell union members they could choose not to pay dues intended for political purposes. "The only way to do that is to leave the union," he said.For now, people like Senger have a choice: pay dues and take what information the union offers, or opt out of union dues and receive financial reports as a nonmember — provided the union complies with state law better than most do with city law. Senger says he wants to remain a member; he just doesn't want his money spent on political campaigns he doesn't support.That battle is over, however. If Senger wants to fight a new battle, he'll have to take it up with the Employee Relations Board.

Pakistan Tour of India 2012-13 Live Streaming: India vs Pakistan 2nd ODI Cricket Match 2013 Live Streaming
Wrecked by Pakistani seamers in their opening ODI match, India's under-fire cricketers will have to pull themselves up against the arch rivals when they clash in a must-win second cricket One-dayer, in Kolkata, on Thursday, with the form of their top-order batsmen a concern.
Pakistan pacer Junaid Khan had sucked the life out of Indian batting when his fiery spell of four for 43 in Chennai mopped up the top order and eventually set up a six-wicket victory for his team.
None of the top five batsmen could even reach a double digit figure and if it would not have been for skipperMahendra Singh Dhoni's heroic unbeaten 113, things would have been more embarrassing for the hosts who are trailing the three-match series 0-1.
Another defeat on Thursday would mean India's second series loss in less than a fortnight after England recorded their first Test series win (2-1) on Indian soil in 28 years.
With odds heavily stacked against them at Eden Gardens, a struggling India will be under tremendous pressure to keep the three-match series alive.

Survey: How to Finance Independent Animation
Three things motivated this survey.
1. During the last 12 years or so Ive seen too many student animation films become an epitaph rather than a prelude.
2. There SEEMS to be less state support for non-commercial culture, yet there are more independently produced animation works being made now than at any other time in the history of animation.
3. A N.Y. subway jaunt with Steven Dovas.
Clearly folks are finding a way to make film, but how? I decided to ask a bunch of em and find out.
Ive always plowed money from commercial work back into independent work.
Credit cards and savings are my magical answer to funding, also I worked as an illustrator to fund my films: telephone books in the deep south funded Mrs Matisse and a book called I love you because funded Everybodys Pregnant.
I have a problem applying for grants as they are in artspeak, a language I never learned. And for me to delineate the parameters of a film beforehand messes with my creative process and actually steers me off the track. I say if you want to make it fund it yourself.
Debra Solomon, U.S.A.
Financing of Ring of Fire: Andreas Hykade, Germany
Complete Budget: 300 000
Prize Money: 20% (We put all the prize money weve got for We Lived In Grass into the project)
TV-Presales: 10 % (because we wanted to be independent, we didnt do a TV co-production, but just presales. Its less money, but more freedom)
filmfund: 60% (The filmfund MfG put most of the money into the project, because they wanted young filmmakers to stay in Baden-Württemberg. You have to spend 100% of the money the filmfund gives you in Baden-Württemberg)
Own money: 10% (which doesnt mean wed put the money in the project literally. We just paid ourselves less)

Windows Computers Still Under Major Threat from Trojans
Personal computers continue to be vulnerable to Trojan threats with the "Trojan.Clicker.CM" the top infection spreading across the internet in June.
The general public are either just not aware of the threat of Trojans and Viruses or have no idea how to adequately protect themselves.
Common sense also plays a big part in preventing infections.
You should never open an attachment from someone you don't know. Even if you do know them, an innocent looking Powerpoint Presentation (.ppt file) sent by your mother could instantly infect your computer through a vulnerability.
What to do
Unless you absolutely need to see that attachment, you really shouldn't open it. In fact, don't!

"Workers' compensation toughened as carriers raised prices or rejected the business," said the Council of Insurance Agents and Brokers. Based on a market survey for the first quarter of 2012, workers' comp rates were up 7.4 percent -- more than any of the other commercial property/casualty insurance lines.
The survey questioned brokers about rates changes for the first three months of 2012. It showed an average increase in workers' comp rates for the fourth consecutive quarter.
"Sixty-eight percent of brokers responding said workers' compensation prices increased 1 percent to 10 percent in the first quarter of the year," according to the CIAB's report. "A broker in the Southeast commented, 'workers' compensation was up with any kind of losses or up just a little even with no losses. Certain classes were not being accepted like they were.'"
In response to the question, how much have premium rates changed over the last three months, the majority said for workers' comp it was an increase of between 1 and 10 percent. The overall responses were:
Pricing for the commercial property/casualty market as a whole rose 4.4 percent for first quarter 2012 compared to 2.7 percent in the previous quarter.
"We've been cautious up to now about declaring a market turn, but I think it's reasonable to say that the market has made a hard turn after two quarters of price increases and tighter underwriting," said Ken A. Crerar, president/CEO of the CIAB. "It's difficult to predict length and severity, but the market has turned."

This is a great colour for applying on the crease but also for applying lightly over the lid for a dark eyed look. I was afraid to buy it because the photos on MUA made it look reddish but when I went to look at it at the store, it actually looked like a dark bronzy chocolaty brown with the tiniest bit of red that doesn't even show up on me. So yes, I love this colour and I would repurchase.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Initially I was a little afraid to try this colour as I thought it may be extremely red and dark on my fair skin. But it's actually the most beautiful medium shimmery chocolate brown colour with a hint of bronze on me. Kind of neutral with a kick, the reddish undertones are actually (not to mention surprisingly and thankfully I might add) very subtle and just give it a bit of dimension to make it a little more than your 'basic' brown. I would imagine this shade would look gorgeous next to any eye colour and could suit many skintones as well. This shade looks fab partnered with Naked Lunch for an everyday look imo.
One lippie off as the texture of this e/s really isn't the best. I've never really liked MAC's Velvet texture and this is no exception. If you over apply the colour can look too dark, muddy/dirty and it can be hard to blend properly. I find you have to play around with Mulch quite a bit to get it to look just right. If it doesn't look right initially don't give up! But applied lightly to the crease, on the lid or wet as a liner this shade is gorgeous imo.
Would definitely repurchase. :)
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I find myself using this eyeshadow quite frequenty.
It's a Warm golden brown that looks great against my eye color.
It looks great in the crease, but I just apply it all over my lid for an easy smokey eye look.
This is one of those shadows i love in the pan and on others but just doesn't seem right for me. It makes my undereyebags stand out like crazy and i had trouble with the payoff. Prefer MAC bronze for example
I bought this at the urging of my daughter and I'm so glad I listened to her. This is a gorgeous shade of brown with gold flecks. It's a colour I never thought I could wear but the flecks are more "illuminating" than they are frosty or harsh. A great colour that would probably flatter anyone, whatever their skin tone or eye colour.
Not much to say really, an essential eyeshadow for me, love it basically :)
Gorgeous dark brown flecked with gold.

One of my favorite eyeshadows. It looks great on any skin tone when used correctly. My favorite part about this eyeshadow is that it works for every occasion. Use it subtly for everyday use, or heavily for a smokey eye / dramatic look. Perfect for any time any place any day. :)
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Its not an eyeshadow i reach for everyday, i find you have to apply it heavily in order for it to show up. I don't think i would buy this one again.
If you asked me to name my favorite MAC eyeshadows, I probably wouldn't think of this, and yet I use it all the time. It's just a workhorse dark brown shimmery shadow. It goes with so many looks. It's not too red, not too gold, not too chunky (like Tempting, which is another favorite, but a little harder to work with). I've hit pan on this and will definitely repurchase.
More reviews by ImYourFavoriteDrug
Beautiful warm brown laced with gold. I love how it brings out my green eyes. I will wear it in the crease with either All That Glitters or Satin Taupe on the lid. Patina is also beautiful with Mulch on the crease.

Robinson, a 6-foot-5, 300-pound Texas commitment, has spent all week in San Antonio practicing with some of the best players in the country in preparation for the 2013 U.S. Army All-American Bowl.
Kickoff is set for noon today at the Alamodome and will be nationally televised on NBC (KXAS/Channel 5).
"I'm excited, it's an honor to play in a game like this," Robinson said.
"I've been hanging out with the players and getting to know them. I got to know most of my team, we've just been joking around and laughing."
Robinson said his favorite part of the week has been the practices.
"We've been joking around but when it comes time to practice, we're practicing hard," Robinson said. "It's been pretty physical but not too physical. We're not trying to hurt each other."
The Arlington Heights standout wasn't the only Fort Worth native taking part in the activities this week.
Staff Sgt.Marshall Brown served as one of the U.S. Army Soldier Heroes paired with players for a variety of activities throughout the week.
Brown, who has served in the military for 12 years, lived in Fort Worth until the age of 14, when his family moved to Aledo. He eventually became a Bearcats linebacker on the 1998 Class 3A Division I state title team.
"We got to spend a lot of time Wednesday with the high school football players, got to know them, which is why we're here," said Brown, who was awarded the Air Medal with Valor in 2010 for his heroic actions in Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. "We get to speak about things that matter and get to mentor the kids."

(from less high to highest of the high)
10. Shumpy on Fallon! - Those of you who have been around for awhile know Shumpy. On a trip to NYC this summer, he went to the Jimmy Fallon show to catch Jimmy Buffett's performance. He ended up being chosen for an audience participation segment--Rush Limbaugh karaoke. Fallon made a big deal about the name "Shumpy"--repeating it almost 20 times! While HNT didn't get mentioned, it was still cool to see one of "us" on national TV! And he won the prize, too!There you have it. My "Highs" for 2009. Many of you are probably already at parties as I'm posting this. I hope that everyone is having a safe but fun NYE! I'm off to bed early so that I can be on the road at 0-dark:30 to catch a flight to Nashville. Be sure to check back for some reports on that! Looking forward to a great 2010!!
9. Symphony/Summer - Our annual mid-summer concert at the college was once again a huge success. An estimated 16-17,000 people showed up to hear music and songs by Rogers & Hammerstein. It was a gloriously beautiful night, the production end of things went quite smoothly, and I didn't get injured! I always wonder at this time of year what the next concert will involve...
8. No Smoke! - Those of you who don't live in the northwest or California can't truly appreciate what it's like to be able to breathe clean air in the summer! There were relatively few forest fires around, and as a result, the skies were sunny and blue for most of the season. There was a smallish fire just west of town that caused a really bad day, but the winds blew that out. Nothing at all like the smoke and fires of 2006 or 2007!
7. "We're on a mission from God..." - We put the band back together (well, everyone but the drummer) for a wedding gig in January. After having not played as a group for over 15 months we weren't sure how it would come off. Well, it came off pretty damned well, thank you! The horns went in cold, not rehearsing at all ahead of time. It's like we had just played a couple of nights before. Everything absolutely clicked! And planted the bug again. We've got another wedding gig this coming Labor Day. We're not going to make any money by only playing once every year and a half, but we're going to have fun! The picture here is during a non-horn song. Hard to get a full band shot when you're playing!
6. Health - In spite of my recent health scare, it's actually been one of the best things to have happened to me in awhile. When you're told that if you continue to do the things you've been doing, it'll kill you, and you've almost experienced that, then quitting those things becomes much easier! I've lost weight, but could lose more. I'm eating healthier and smarter. And I'm actually doing some exercise! Not much, but compared to the past, it's quite a bit! I'm wearing clothes I haven't worn in at least 8 years. I got my cholesterol numbers back last week. I used to average between 185-200. In the hospital, they found it to be around 267. Last week's results have me at 100. Sure, it's a combination of meds and diet, but it's a far cry better than what I used to be!
5. Droid - Verizon's insistence that I upgrade my phone finally broke me down. There's no immediate plans for Verizon and Apple to reconcile so that the iPhone will break into the Montana market, so why not? Why didn't someone tell me years ago how cool having a smartphone would be??? I love everything about it, and I'm still learning! Granted, I'll get the iPhone when it becomes available around here, just because I'm a Mac guy. But it's going to have to do some impressive tricks!
4. Weekend at Rachel's - I finally took the trip up the Flathead to go see Rachel. We spent time driving through the magnificence of Glacier Park. We ate huckleberry licorice. We drank beers. Other than the one night where she left me at a bar (see the "Lows" down below), it was wonderful! We hadn't spent more than 30 minutes in each other's presence since she moved up there. It was wonderful to reconnect!
3. Friends! - I got to meet some bloggerfriends for the first time this year. And some old friends too! Some came here, some I went to see, and one happened totally unexpecedly! They were Lori, M, M's sister, Living Diary, NY Diva, Sista Diva, Vixen, Wendy, DH, Dana, Amber, and Dave from Greater Falls. Of course, Moose, Rachel and Kamey. You can check out who most of these people are in my sidebar---------->
2. Obamacare--NOT! - I have mixed feelings about this. I was ready and willing to pay what I could, when I could, for my hospitalization and medical bills. It's the right thing to do. But frankly, when I got the letter from the hospital telling me that they'd adjusted my bill at 100%, I was elated. Then I got the same feeling I got when I first enjoyed unemployment benefits--I'm not one of "those" people. I'm not homeless. I'm not destitute. I live in a relatively nice apartment and enjoy my cable and my internet and my wireless phone. I obviously haven't starved to death. My car is paid off. But you know what? I AM one of "those" people. I'm in a situation where health insurance isn't offered. I don't make the sort of money that would allow me to substantially pay my medical bills and still live my life. I'm not as concerned about getting free insulin from the pharmaceutical companies. They get a nice tax write-off from "those" people. It's humbling. But as one social worker told me, everyone in the medical field knows that individuals can't possibly afford medical care on their own. Programs exist to help them, and should be taken advantage of. So I am. Do I feel like I'm taking a handout? A little bit. But I'll get over it!
1. Indy '09 - I was a bit prophetic when writing last year's "Highs", as I wrote about how good the Elton John concert in Missoula was, and that I couldn't wait see Elton and Billy Joel to get back together on a tour. About a month later, I learned that they were, so I got ahold of M, who is a big Billy fan. I asked if she wanted to go if I could find a close concert. As luck would have it, Indy was the place! We hadn't planned on getting together with anyone, as it was mid-week, and I wouldn't be in town too long. Then I realized that NY Diva was celebrating her birthday a couple days before then. I'd catch hell if she found out I'd been there without letting her know. And Living Diary worked literally a block or two from where we were staying, and I'd catch hell all over again if she didn't get to see us. So we had a great time together. Lunches, dinners, beers, and M and I got to see a fantastic concert! You can click the link to read all about it. This is the trip where I got to see most of the ones listed in #3, too!

This song expresses his appreciation of someone he loves so much that everything about her shines bright and it is yellow.
In brief, I feel like he's saying she's an angel to him, beautiful both on the out and inside. Her light has influenced him and "it was all yellow," whatever he does seem to shine yellow too.

In reply to Just never mind any of this, it doesn't matter, posted by Happyflower on January 18, 2007, at 20:06:48
I hope you don't give up Happyflower.
Maybe your T told you to take care of yourself and not go places where you get hurt. That's one way to handle situations, and if Babble is hurting you, I wouldn't want that to continue.
But sometimes, when I feel hurt and upset about things here, and say that I'm not coming back-- which happens-- my T thinks I can stay connected and handle the situation, and find ways to protect myself, within this place. Even if something happens that hurts or jars me-- or I feel out of step of sympathy, or disrespected, or whatever it is.
Sometimes, I've learned that I can survive and be okay even if I feel those things-- I can contain the feelings, and move on-- and let them recede. It's amazing sometimes, how over time, things that seem overwhelming and somehow unacceptable are dwarfed and become insubstantial and hard even to reimagine fully.
The pressure you feel might stem from someone else-- but it also is internal pressure-- and that part could shift-- and if you stick around, or come back, you might realize that it's safer here than you think.
You make a great contribution, and your leaving would be a loss. And this place might have good things to offer you.
I hope you can work through the feelings and come back, or --even better, from my perspective--stay.

There's no other road or street course event on the 2012 IZOD IndyCar Series schedule quite like Long Beach. The 38th edition of the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach sets the standard for excellence among all street races, and since IndyCar took over sanctioning at the track from Champ Car in 2009, it hasn't been a race dominated by the usual suspects from the top two teams in the series.
Here are some of the contenders capable of putting pause to Team Penske's powerful start to the season.
MAYOR HINCH'S BEST WIN CHANCE – After an excellent yet almost unfulfilling start to the season, James Hinchcliffe enters this weekend's race at Long Beach with his best chance yet at his first victory.
The fourth and sixth place results are good, yet could have been better. Slow pit stops at Barber, particularly with the rear tires, cost him what should have been his first podium. He ran primarily second and third throughout the day.
Hinch's record at Long Beach from his junior formula career and his first IndyCar race at the track last year is fairly impressive. A year ago, he used Oriol Servia's backup car after a mechanical issue on his own car. He then qualified 11th and improved to fourth by the flag for his first career IndyCar top-five finish. Coming through the ranks, he won from pole in Indy Lights in 2010 (RIGHT), and also has two more podiums at the track, split between his first Lights and Atlantic starts there (2009 and 2006).
It doesn't hurt he's driving for the team that's won here the last two years, either. Andretti Autosport has been stellar in terms of setup, with Ryan Hunter-Reay and Mike Conway delivering surprise but welcome victories. Hinch or RHR would be a good bet for success at "the beach."
Hinchcliffe's charge may be compromised by having a 10-spot grid penalty for an engine failure in testing on Monday at Sonoma. Still, as Simon Pagenaud proved at St. Petersburg, recovering from that position is not impossible. There will be extra motivation for the Canadian to get the most out of his weekend.
CONWAY LEADS FOYT RESURGENCE – A year ago at Long Beach, Conway qualified third, fell to the back early, but then silently and stealthily snuck through the field – culminating with a pass on Ryan Briscoe for the lead at turn 6. After winning his first career race, Conway looked and sounded like he'd barely broken a sweat.
Driving for A.J. Foyt, Conway wants not only to revitalize the team's efforts on road and street courses, but also buck a disturbing trend involving Foyt's recent full-time hires. Vitor Meira (2009-11), Darren Manning (2007-08), and Felipe Giaffone (2006) have not garnered another full-time IndyCar ride after they parted ways with Foyt, and Conway is at a point in his career where a year or two of poor results could spell the same fate.
However, the signs are there that this won't be the case. Conway surged into the Firestone Fast Six at Barber last race, for Foyt's first top six start on a road or street course since Manning at St. Petersburg in 2007. He felt disappointed with a seventh place result, this after also showing promise at St. Pete this year but retiring late with mechanical woes.
Larry Foyt has worked to change the staff and reputation of this team, and the Conway and Don Halliday (lead engineer) pairing on this car has the potential to work more wonders going forward. A top-five or even another podium might not be out of the question for Conway this weekend.
JR'S ACHIEVEMENT – Another one in the "results don't tell the whole story" camp through two races is JR Hildebrand of Panther Racing. Compared to last year when Panther's road and street course setup failed to match the more developed, established contenders, the new car has provided a fresh start for Hildebrand and the crew led by engineer David Cripps to find new footing and begin making their mark.
"It's been a little bit of a tough start from (a results) perspective," Hildebrand said. "We've put a pretty high priority on improving our road and street course program. Through the last two weekends, at least from a pace standpoint, we've showed that.
"We're quite happy with the improvements we've made and feel like we're way further ahead in terms of our competitiveness on those types of tracks going into this season. Although it doesn't really show it on paper, we feel pretty good about where we're at."
Late fuel pressure issues negated a potential sixth place finish at St. Pete, while at Barber, a run to the Firestone Fast Six was the team's best qualifying result on a road or street course since 2005. Long Beach was where Hildebrand kick-started his run to the 2009 Indy Lights title, with a win from pole, and he seeks a complete weekend this time around.
The team itself has also launched its media guide this weekend, complete with a comic book-esque cover showcasing Hildebrand in his "Captain America" nickname finest – an artistic masterpiece which the team's PR ace Mike Kitchel should be proud to distribute (RIGHT).
NEW COLORS, NEW FORTUNE FOR TK? – Tony Kanaan enters Long Beach after two forgettable races. An early DNF at St. Pete and a subsequent 21st at Barber leave the ebullient Brazilian stone last in the standings.
Kanaan, who won his first career pole at Long Beach in 1999, looks for a shift in luck this weekend as he'll make his first of four starts in a new blue livery thanks to primary sponsor Mouser Electronics. Mouser, an associate on the GEICO yellow-and-green car that has started the year, had its first full race livery last year in Sonoma on board Ho-Pin Tung's car.

Charity chief begins 230 mile cycle ride from Exeter

THE chief executive of the national charity Rethink Mental Illness today launched his bid to cycle 230 miles to raise money for the charity in Exeter .
Paul Jenkins will cycle from Exeter to Lincoln in four days to fundraise for the charity and raise awareness of mental illness. Before he set off this morning, Mr Jenkins visited the charity's project in Exeter, which helps people in with mental illness achieve a better quality of life.
Ian Bowden, who works for the charity in Exeter and is cycling with Mr Jenkins part of the way, said: "We're delighted that Paul visited this project which gives people with mental illness an alternative to residential care or hospital.
"Our staff support people either in their own home or in our residential houses, to integrate back into the community. They do this by providing emotional and practical support, such as help with socialising, money management or shopping."
Mr Jenkins is aiming to raise £5,000 in total. He said:"I'm delighted to have visited our project in Exeter. The staff here work tirelessly to support people with a mental illness become an active part of their community.
"Severe mental illness can be devastating but Rethink Mental Illness is there to make a difference, whether through offering information, advice and peer support, campaigning for better services or changes in attitudes or through providing mental health services.
"As a charity, we are lucky to have so many dedicated supporters and members who push themselves to the limit to raise money for us. As the CEO, I wanted to do my bit by getting on my bike to support the cause I'm passionate about."

"Chamber Music of the Masters," the 2013-14 classical music series presented by Englewood Arts Presents, will open at 2 p.m. Oct. 5 with a benefit for the Up Close and Musical ensemble, UCAM, a local nonprofit that offers concerts to area elementary-school children who might not otherwise have an opportunity to experience professional concerts.
Eric Bertoluzzi is founder and conductor and musicians are primarily from the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, where cellist Bertoluzzi was a member for 40 years until his retirement this year. He also heads Englewood Arts Presents.
The concert season will showcase Colorado Symphony members and other professional area musicians in a smaller ensemble chamber music repertoire in Hampden Hall, in the Englewood Civic Center.
The opening concert will honor Penny and Joe Shoemaker.

Yesterday was one hell of an interesting day in regards to Reddit's public image. In the morning, BuzzFeed ran a glowing profile piece on founder Alexis Ohanian, "Why is this man running for President of the Internet" lauding him for his efforts in helping squash SOPA. Ohanian stood infront of a podium adorned with the motto "Making the World Suck Less."
It's not clear how Ohanian was making the world suck less when encouraging, benefiting from, and ultimately protecting the actions of a man who posted photos of underage girls for perverts to leer at. And that's a fact that Gawker's Adrian Chen raised loudly and clearly when he published what is, in my opinion, the best depiction of Reddit's success to date: Unmasking Violentacrez, the Biggest Troll on the Web. If you read nothing else on Gawker, let it be this.
Now, in case you haven't been following along prior to today, many Reddit subforums had already begun banning Gawker links days in advance, in preparation for Chen's article. In fact, their was an outpouring of support for Violentacrez, real name Michael Brutsch, despite his habit of posting 14 year-old girls their bikinis. Apparently creating and moderating boards like /r/creepshots, /r/jailbait, and /r/picsofdeadjailbait were just fine but when a journalist chose to reveal VA's identity, this was somehow a gross violation of his privacy.
With how much work Reddit staff goes to portraying themselves in a humanitarian light, calling themselves "the front page of the internet" and "a force for good in a bad world," it's important that we all remember that they knew of Violentacrez's habits of posting exploitative photos and simply looked the other way. As long as they could benefit from the traffic he brought to the site, they did nothing to stop him.
Some may argue that since Violentacrez is largely portrayed as a troll, that he doesn't really mean any of the things that he says or does — that he's pushing the boundaries of what's permissible by law in order to protect free speech. And given his "free speech" shield he has drawn support from those who say things like, "I may not agree with the things you say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it." The hypocrisy here is staggering. Violentacrez and all of those who participated in /r/creepshots and boards like it knowingly violated the privacy of the girls and women who's photos they posted without their consent. And because the moderator who enabled this activity had his own privacy compromised that is somehow worse?
Free speech issues aside, it's interesting to note that at no point in Chen's article does Brutsch ever refute that anything he said or did on the site wasn't an honest portrayal of who he was in real life. On the contrary, he insisted to be exactly who he represented himself as: a man who once performed oral sex on his own step-daughter, and regularly posts pornography to Reddit in front of his own wife.
As the former and original community manager of Know Your Meme, I'm no stranger to the amount of work it takes to delete exploitative, illegal, and disturbing content from a popular site. It seems like every day we were assaulted with a flood of material that you'd just wish didn't exist in the first place. The workload became too much for our team, every bit as small as the Reddit staff, and so we too turned to community moderation. But the key difference is that we didn't act like the volunteer mods were capable of self-policing. We didn't cling to lofty notions of free speech and libertarianism. We were, for lack of a better word, a benevolent dictatorship. We knew we could never expect our moderators to act independently. It took great amounts of oversight. Now, I left Know Your Meme nearly two years ago and I've barely done more than lurk in recent months, save for the occasional forum name-changing prank. (But that's an entirely different story.)
Personally, I'm done with Reddit for good. I was already banned from Reddit a while ago, but now I'm truly done condoning anything to do with the site. Outside of Reddit there's a larger web of complicity at play. For smaller websites, like the one you're reading this article on, Reddit can be a huge boon for referral traffic. Understandably, there are many sites that are reluctant to so much as mention that the story is going on. When your livelihood is tied up in the pageview-based economy you don't want to risk pissing off one of your largest sources of hits. But the story is finally getting loud enough that no one can responsibly make the decision to ignore it. Given the now-public knowledge that Reddit staff protected and encouraged Violentacrez means that any endorsement of Reddit is also an endorsement for the systematic exploitation of young girls.

Forums >Gears and Wears>Used treadmills
I fly.
I'm going to look at one this afternoon. Any advice on questions I should ask or what I should look for in a used treadmill?
Bring it on.
Menace to Sobriety
I've never bought a new or used TM, but I'd apply the same logic that I apply to buying any type of used machinery. Plan on running on it, at the speed you intend to use it for for a few minutes, at least. Make sure the acceleration and deceleration is smooth and the belt doesn't slip. Operate the incline, use all the controls, etc. Pay attention for any strange smells or noises, look underneath for debris from abnormal rubbing. I think a little fine dust is normal, our Y TMs seem to have some and they're rarely broken. Another good rule of thumb when I buy a car or boat if I'm at the seller's house, is to look at the rest of their stuff. If everything you see seems to be in some state of disrepair or otherwise screwed up, if may give you a clue as to how they've taken care of the TM. Ultimately, anything used is a gamble and perfectly well cared for stuff can blow up the week after you buy it. You just have to use your best judgement. Good luck.
Has Broken Parts
Only buy a used treadmill from someone that is overweight. That way you know that they bought it as a New Year's resolution but didn't actually use it.
I never thought of this, but this is some good advice.....
Champions are made when no one is watching
I'd look for one that has absolutely no dust on it, but perhaps some faint water spots. That was you know it was only used as a clothes line.
Cool Jump Suit
I bought one back in 2001 that lasted until 2010.....I got around 5,000+ miles out of it. The big thing was maintenance. We had a service tech come out and change the rollers and lubricate it as necessary. So, I would just test it out and ask about what maintenance is has been done and find out the total miles it has. Oh, and ask them if the motor was turned off after every use. When I bought the one in 2001, they told me to be sure I turned off the base of the treadmill, not just pulled the key out to turn off the display/controls. I was told that gave a longer life to the motor. Good luck!
Free, like a river ragingStrong, as the wind I'm facing.Chasing dreams and racing father time.
I actually scoured Craigs list and scored an amazing treadmill, barely used for 300$ & it's worth a good 2,000$ ... I had to be patient & look & take the time to go check it out but it was SO WORTH IT. It has never given me a problem and I saved A TON of money. Worth checking out!
mileage hound
if you know the model ahead of time, many models have a key combo to give you total miles or hours used and you can look the instructions up online.
2013 goals: Somehow get healthy again.
"If you want to be a bad a$s, then do what a bad a$s does. There's your pep talk for today. Go Run." -- Slo_Hand
"Determined is what I am. Maybe a little sick in the head? Ok who am I kidding ALOT sick in the head" -- rockenmamaof5
If you were closer, I'd give you mine. I finally realized it's silly to have a TM where I live because the weather is good for running outside 99% of the time. And now DH stores junk on it.

(Redirected from Auguste François Biard)
This article does not cite any references or sources. (February 2010) |
François-Auguste Biard (June 30, 1799 – June 20, 1882) was a French genre painter.
Born at Lyon, he traveled around the world, sketching on the way. He was particularly successful in rendering burlesque groups like in Sea Sickness on a British Corvet (Dallas Museum of Art).
His painting, Scenes on the Coast of Africa, depicted on the right, was the inspiration behind Isaac Julien's short film The Attendant (1993). Biard was a known abolitionist against the Atlantic slave trade.

I am curious. What is an interchangeable track? My view is that "The way it is"..is a departure from what got this band to where they are. Nothing before the "Cover" was like that. I think they should do more of what got them here. If retro is why it happened, why revert to the present and be influenced.

Unfortunately, the only show I could make it to in Munich (I live near Stuttgart) is on a weekend I'm away skiing.

I've been so frustrated with how music has been the past decade and have anxiously been waiting for hick boys as yourself lol I mean that with all respect.

Another fine album.
Another fine album.
Unfortunately, your Dec. 18 show in Kelowna lacked the quality that your music deserves. The sound man had the bass and drums cranked up so high that we couldn't hear the vocals. That's a crying shame, because Ewan Currie's vocals and the band's harmonies are simply superb on the albums. All we really got in Kelowna was thump-thump and some soaring, searing guitar solos. So, find a sound man who's not deaf, guys! I must admit that a lot of testoserone-driven guys in the audience lapped it up, but I suspect that they were operating to some extent on imprinted Sheepdog songs heard (and no doubt memorized) from hundreds of listens on their earbuds.
Just saw you guys perform in
Just saw you guys perform in Thunder Bay, Dec 10th 2012. Best show I have been to. I love the feel of your music, the vibe you give out to your fans, and the high quality of music you produce. Keep it up! this is what the music industry needs, good original rock!! Don't ever change your groovy rock sound!!
Would have love to have you
Would have love to have you come to Knoxville or Nashville,Tennessee. I think you were in Knoxville but I had to work. Love your music and always requesting your songs to be played in second life. Who knows maybe you will do a concernt there haha.
These guys played Sat night
These guys played Sat night 12/1 at the Tin Roof in downtown Indy and f'n roooooooooocked. And it was free! We Hoosiers love you guys! Like these guys below say, keep coming back to the Midwest. You're exactly what we want - classic rock with face-melting guitar and mind-blowing jams that make you want to shake your ass, get drunk, and smoke somethin'!! I'm sure this will be the last time I get to see you guys for free. Keep it up, stay true to your roots, and don't go ruin yourselves when you become big stars (like the f'n Kings Of Leon).
Hey Hoosiers, an Indiana boy
Hey Hoosiers, an Indiana boy myself yet 30 years removed. Saw these guys in Florida 1 year ago at a freebie in the panhandle. If guided correctly, a US tour as the lead is a possibility. Will that will happen? "I Don't Know"
Get down to Indiana and play
Get down to Indiana and play some shows...Hit up bloomington or Indy. You will blow up in the Midwest.

We hope that you, our lovely followers, have been enjoying the new (and hopefully improved) FY!Seattle, and we're definitely enjoying the submissions we've been starting to receive (and all our new members — thank you!), but we're going to momentarily don our mod hats and put forward some guidelines for making submissions to us.
- If you're submitting pictures or movies, please submit either original pictures/video or Creative Commons-licensed pictures/video, and indicate who created the picture/video. Obviously we ourselves prefer to post images with attribution anyway, but we'd much rather prefer to use images that we have clear permission to use for this noncommercial purpose. We will consider posting interesting unlicensed material, if there's a creator credit, but if the creator asks us to take something down we'll comply.
- Please also indicate in text what the picture/video is of and where it was taken! While we love Seattle desperately, we're definitely not Seattle experts, and it's not always clear to us (or other followers) from the picture what we're looking at. We definitely don't expect paragraphs of prose like we sometimes provide (see the recent History Theme Week!), but a sentence or two would be great, and will bump your stuff to the top of our list. Also, we're willing to go a little beyond the city limits to capture things that capture the essence of Seattle! (Though we also recommend fuckyeahtacoma and 42ndstate for more PNW/Washington goodness.)
- We're also thrilled to endorse/support local photographers/musicians/etc, for as much as our endorsement and support is worth, so if you're a local artist or supporter who wants a little bit of bandwidth bump, send us your info! We're much likelier to post your event submission if it's something locally run — for example, we'll probably toss, say, a Cirque du Soleil ad in the bin, but a show by local bands or a benefit art show for 826 Seattle would be right up our alley.
- If you're sending in something — be patient! We're busy people, and while we do check messages at least once or twice a day we can't always reply immediately, and since we use the queue for most of our content it might take a while for something submitted to appear. We're generally posting submissions on Fridays, but if we start building a backlog we'll post them more often. If something you're submitting has a relevance deadline (it's an event, it's pictures of Seafair or the cherry trees at UW), please say so in your submission, and we'll definitely respect it.
While we took over this Tumblr because we love and wanted to celebrate Seattle, we also do this for you, because you love Seattle, too. Show us what you love about our favorite city! Please keep submitting and sending your feedback!
Love and drizzle,

Thanks for the submission, lolalongbottom! We won't normally post pictures without knowing where they were taken, but we liked this so much we had to share it with our followers. Does anyone know where this was taken?
