A hearse is the name given to the vehicle that's used to carry a coffin from the family or funeral home, to the funeral service, and then onto either the cemetery or crematorium.
Our Promise is to make sure that every aspect of your loved one's funeral is personally tailored to them, and that includes their final journey.
Whether they preferred discreet and minimalistic, or loud and flamboyant – we understand that everybody is unique and requires a personalised service.
Traditional hearses
We have a beautiful fleet of traditional black hearses and in some regions our silver hearses have become even more popular than the black.
Our traditional hearses are smart yet modest, and we take great pride in making sure they're maintained to a very high standard.
We have a variety of makes available including Jaguar, Mercedes, Ford, Volvo and Vauxhall.
The standard hearse varies across the country but if there's a specific make that you'd like, just let your Funeral Director know and they'll do their best to accommodate you.
Alternative hearses
Increasingly more and more families are choosing to personalise their funeral by creating a unique tribute reflecting the life of their loved one, through their choice of hearse.
A recent survey we conducted, revealed that one in five people would want their final journey to take place in a vehicle that reflected their favourite hobby or pastime, with horse drawn and bicycle hearses topping the list.
We've also conducted funerals using a lorry, motorcycle hearse, tandem bicycle, milk float, bus, quad bike, tractor and trailer, ambulance, a converted steam train, a fire engine, and many more.
Find out more about our alternative hearses survey.
We will always try to accommodate any requests for alternative hearses – you'd be surprised about what we can arrange for you!
Keep a look out to see what county shows we're exhibiting at near you during the summer, so that you can see a selection of our alternative hearses for yourself.
Click below for some further alternative hearses that we have available:
- Land Rover Hearse
- Japanese Buddhist Hearse
- 1972 Mercedes Hearse
- Motorcycle Hearse
- Tandem Cycle Hearse
- Horse-drawn Hearse
- 1953 Vauxhall Wyvern Hearse – "Rusty"
- 1933 Austin Hearse
Funeral procession
The traditional funeral procession is still popular but is becoming more personalised as families are choosing the route the funeral procession takes.
If you're driving behind the hearse as part of the funeral procession, turn on your headlights and keep a close but safe distance to the car in front, allowing adequate braking distance.
To help keep the procession together, we can provide cortege markers and flags for the vehicles following the procession to alert other motorists.
If you're using satellite navigation, please note that the route we use may not be exactly the same one as shown on the satellite navigation system.

The recent gullywashers and gales that have struck the region have been hard on the thousands of miles of roads in the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest.
"We have a number of small slides, downed trees and plugged culverts on all of our districts right now," said forest spokesman Paul Galloway. "We have crews out now clearing them as they find them."
Travel into some areas of the forest may be delayed because of the road restoration work, he cautioned.
While the entire forest has been affected, the Gold Beach Ranger District has been hit the hardest, he said.
Portions of Chetco River Road, Hunter Creek Road and Mt. Emily Road in that district are impassable and have been barricaded because of storm damage, officials said. It is unknown when those roads will reopen.
"We are encouraging the public to report any road problems they encounter while out cutting Christmas trees or doing other things in the forest," he added.
But he cautioned forest visitors to drive cautiously as they negotiate the mountain roads. They should also let someone know where they are headed and when they expect to return, he said.
"With these big rain events like this, drivers need to be prepared to encounter washouts, erosion problems and mud," he said.
When venturing out, forest visitors should have warm clothing, blankets or sleeping bags, food, water, flashlight, shovel and chains, officials said. They should also begin their journey with a full tank of gas, they add.
"With the snow line coming down, things can get treacherous real fast," Galloway said.

Thinking about starting your search for an active adult or senior living community? Prepare to immerse yourself in the experience. Communities love to show off and welcome home hunters. As a potential resident, you have the opportunity to try before you buy, at open houses, lunches and dinners, even overnight stays. These events are a great way to determine whether a community is the place for you, all in a low-pressure environment.
Active adult communities are known for offering free day passes and overnight or multi-day stays at fully furnished homes. (Some charge a small fee for the overnights.) For example, the day pass at Del Webb communities includes a meal, a fitness class, and use of the facilities. Overnights include use of a golf cart to tool around the community like a resident. More freebies might be offered once you get there.
It is important to approach these visits with an eye to the future, says Amy Goyer of AARP. "You want a community where you can see yourself living there today and also 10 years from now," she says. This is particularly true of baby boomers who may be independent now but want a place that will work for them as they age.
"Many times you get excited about the amenities but you don't think about your actual life," she adds. "Many retirees are still working. Is the community conducive to their work? Is there a home office? What about proximity to their network of family and friends? Is there shopping nearby? These are questions they should answer."
Independent living communities such as Willow Falls in Crest Hill hosts a big open house every July (though they skipped this year). It showcases the community to the public in the small town atmosphere of Crest Hill.
"We always have entertainers come in, such as singers and bands. We serve hot dogs, ice cream, and popcorn, and there is a car show," says Julie Brewer, community relations director. "It's fun because everyone who lives in the area loves to come and they can take a look without having the pressure of scheduling a visit. We have always had a great turnout, both outside and inside the building."
Besides just being fun, Brewer says the event works. "People see it and they want to come back and learn more. We have had people move in because of the open house," she says.
Willow Falls does not offer overnight stays, but potential residents are invited to return for lunch and bring family along.
One notable opening this fall is The Admiral at the Lake, a continuing care retirement community in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood. The lakefront high rise was completely rebuilt over the past five years. The grand opening is set for October but open house events have already started. Appointments can be made anytime, including overnight stays.
"At open houses we try to balance a tour of the building with exposure to the community," says CEO Glenn Brichacek. "It's an opportunity to interact with people who have already moved in. That is the best representation of what the community is like. You cannot get that from a website or brochure."
Brichacek says it is important to find out who owns a community, and who is actually running the community. They might not be the same.
"Some organizations outsource management, sometimes in a different place," he says. The Admiral is now affiliated with The Kendal Corp., which helps senior communities operate efficiently and govern themselves independently. That means decisions about most resident matters are made locally at The Admiral.
Brichacek says this arrangement allows problems to be dealt with directly. "Residents know this is a place they can call home and they can trust the people who are guiding the way their home is being operated," he says.
If you're looking at a CCRC, don't forget to check out all the levels of care in person, not just the one you need now, Goyer says. "[Baby boomers] might not look at the assisted living, because right now they are independent. But there are specific things you have to look at when considering assisted living and skilled nursing care." ]
You can find a good list of things to look for in an CCRC at AARP.org in the Home & Family section.

TOPEKA — Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt says the state's official anti-human trafficking group is meeting for the first time this week in its newly minted role.
The Kansas Human Trafficking Advisory Board was recognized in a new law passed earlier this year as the state's official group dedicated to fighting human trafficking. It was first organized in January 2010 as the Attorney General's Human Trafficking Advisory Board.
The board will meet at 1:30 p.m. Friday at the Department for Children and Families Learning Center in Topeka. Members include representatives of the governor's office, attorney general's office, cabinet agencies, law enforcement and social service organizations.

Hello all,
First time user here, and I've got a question on a sentence in the very first chapter of Roma Aeterna. Here goes (from page 11):
...qui 'lacus Curtius' dicitur a nomine equitis cuiusdam qui se armatum cum equo suo in voraginem ibi factam praecipitavisse narratur.
I think it says:
... which is called "Lake Curtius" from the name of a certain knight who it is said that he fell headlong into the chasm made there armed with his horse.
My frustration mostly comes with narratur and how to construe the rest of the line in light of it. Is the subject qui or an impersonal "it?" Another option, I suppose, is "...who is said to have fallen headlong into the chasm made there armed with his horse. I think I might like this second option better because it gives qui something to do.
Also, "armed" for armatum sounds a bit funky. Any suggestions?

Seasoned professionals also benefit from Woodworkers Safety Week 2009.
By Marc Spagnuolo
Pages: 68-69
From the June 2009 issue #176
Buy this issue now
Did you know that May 4th, 2009 marks the second annual Woodworker's Safety Week? It began last year in an effort to raise awareness of woodshop safety. And with the accelerated growth of the Internet woodworking community, it is vital that we provide a solid foundation for all the new woodworkers just coming onto the scene.
The entire Internet woodworking community came together in an unprecedented way to make Safety Week 2008 a huge success, but perhaps the best part of all was the content itself. Gone were the days of boring recitation of safety guidelines from a manual. Instead we shared experiences, tales of nearmisses and accidents that truly made the message poignant and effective.
Regardless of your experience level, it never hurts to review the basics. In fact, I believe there are a number of standard safety items and practices that not only help keep you safer in the shop, but also could very well improve the quality of your work.

[This post was originally published in March 2007]
Earlier today I posted a poll [and I republished that poll yesterday] challenging Cognitive Daily readers to show me that they understand error bars — those little I-shaped indicators of statistical power you sometimes see on graphs. I was quite confident that they wouldn't succeed. Why was I so sure? Because in 2005, a team led by Sarah Belia conducted a study of hundreds of researchers who had published articles in top psychology, neuroscience, and medical journals. Only a small portion of them could demonstrate accurate knowledge of how error bars relate to significance. If published researchers can't do it, should we expect casual blog readers to?
Confidence Intervals
First off, we need to know the correct answer to the problem, which requires a bit of explanation. The concept of confidence interval comes from the fact that very few studies actually measure an entire population. We might measure reaction times of 50 women in order to make generalizations about reaction times of all the women in the world. The true mean reaction time for all women is unknowable, but when we speak of a 95 percent confidence interval around our mean for the 50 women we happened to test, we are saying that if we repeatedly studied a different random sample of 50 women, 95 percent of the time, the true mean for all women will fall within the confidence interval.
Now suppose we want to know if men's reaction times are different from women's reaction times. We can study 50 men, compute the 95 percent confidence interval, and compare the two means and their respective confidence intervals, perhaps in a graph that looks very similar to Figure 1 above. If Group 1 is women and Group 2 is men, then the graph is saying that there's a 95 percent chance that the true mean for all women falls within the confidence interval for Group 1, and a 95 percent chance that the true mean for all men falls within the confidence interval for Group 2. The question is, how close can the confidence intervals be to each other and still show a significant difference?
In psychology and neuroscience, this standard is met when p is less than .05, meaning that there is less than a 5 percent chance that this data misrepresents the true difference (or lack thereof) between the means. I won't go into the statistics behind this, but if the groups are roughly the same size and have the roughly the same-size confidence intervals, this graph shows the answer to the problem Belia's team proposed:
The confidence intervals can overlap by as much as 25 percent of their total length and still show a significant difference between the means for each group. Any more overlap and the results will not be significant. So how many of the researchers Belia's team studied came up with the correct answer? Just 35 percent were even in the ballpark — within 25 percent of the correct gap between the means. Over thirty percent of respondents said that the correct answer was when the confidence intervals just touched — much too strict a standard, for this corresponds to p<.006, or less than a 1 percent chance that the true means are not different from each other, compared to the accepted p<.05.
Standard Errors
But perhaps the study participants were simply confusing the concept of confidence interval with standard error. In many disciplines, standard error is much more commonly used. So Belia's team randomly assigned one third of the group to look at a graph reporting standard error instead of a 95% confidence interval:
How did they do on this task? Once again, first a little explanation is necessary. Standard errors are typically smaller than confidence intervals. For reasonably large groups, they represent a 68 percent chance that the true mean falls within the range of standard error — most of the time they are roughly equivalent to a 68% confidence interval. In fact, a crude rule of thumb is that when standard errors overlap, assuming we're talking about two different groups, then the difference between the means for the two groups is not significant.
Actually, for purposes of eyeballing a graph, the standard error ranges must be separated by about half the width of the error bars before the difference is significant. The following graph shows the answer to the problem:
Only 41 percent of respondents got it right — overall, they were too generous, putting the means too close together. Nearly 30 percent made the error bars just touch, which corresponds to a significance level of just p<.16, compared to the accepted p<.05.
When error bars don't apply
The final third of the group was given a "trick" question. They were shown a figure similar to those above, but told that the graph represented a pre-test and post-test of the same group of individuals. Because retests of the same individuals are very highly correlated, error bars cannot be used to determine significance. Only 11 percent of respondents indicated they noticed the problem by typing a comment in the allotted space. Incidentally, the CogDaily graphs which elicited the most recent plea for error bars do show a test-retest method, so error bars in that case would be inappropriate at best and misleading at worst.
Belia's team recommends that researchers make more use of error bars — specifically, confidence intervals — and educate themselves and their students on how to understand them.
You might argue that Cognitive Daily's approach of avoiding error bars altogether is a bit of a copout. But we think we give enough explanatory information in the text of our posts to demonstrate the significance of researchers' claims. Moreover, since many journal articles still don't include error bars of any sort, it is often difficult or even impossible for us to do so. And those who do understand error bars can always look up the original journal articles if they need that information. Still, with the knowledge that most people — even most researchers — don't understand error bars, I'd be interested to hear our readers make the case for whether or not we should include them in our posts.

NEW YORK (AP) — A group led by Starr Investment Holdings said Monday that it is buying MultiPlan Inc., which helps manage claims for large health insurers.
The purchase price was $4.4 billion, according to a person close to the deal, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the companies did not publicly disclose terms.
Starr and Switzerland-based Partners Group said their group had agreed to buy MultiPlan from private equity firms Silver Lake and BC Partners.
Starr is part of C.V. Starr & Co., which is led by former American International Group Inc. CEO Maurice "Hank" Greenberg.
MultiPlan says on its website that it has nearly 900,000 health care providers under contract and processes 40 million claims a year for payers in health care and other markets.
Private equity firms like Silver Lake typically make investments for a short period, perhaps three to five years. Starr and Partners Group are taking a longer view and believe that there will be growth in the business of analyzing and managing claims at a time of rising medical costs.
Starr had connections to MultiPlan. According to the person familiar with the deal, Greenberg has a long-standing relationship with MultiPlan CEO Mark Tabak, and a member of the Starr investment team worked at Carlyle Group when that private equity firm owned the health care services company.
Carlyle and another firm sold MultiPlan to Silver Lake and BC Partners in 2010. Published reports at the time valued that deal at $3.1 billion.
The sale announced Monday included financing from Barclays PLC and J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. It is expected to close by the end of the first quarter.

The General's Highway Athletic Association, Inc. (also sometimes referred to as GHAA) came into existence in 1997. Prior to this time there were a number of athletic organizations named after the Rolling Knolls community, including baseball, girls lacrosse and soccer. These organizations banded together under the General's Highway banner in order to better serve the emerging communities along and around MD-178, which is better known as General's Highway. The earliest of the Rolling Knolls organizations is girls lacrosse, founded in 1985 with the first season in 1986, and therefore General's Highway roots go back to this time.
General's Highway is a non-profit organization registered with the State of Maryland and the US Government. While continuing to solely make sure the lacrosse fields at Rolling Knolls elementary are playable, the organization also works with the Anne Arundel County Recreation & Parks department to maintain General's Highway Corridor Park on Crownsville Road. The lacrosse, soccer and baseball organizations make use of the fields at this location.
The first President of General's Highway was Dale Dandy who also happened to be the Commissioner for Rolling Knolls Baseball at the time. He was President for at most two years. Since then we have had several presidents serving the General Highway community. Currently Mike Hicks is serving as the Generals Highway Athletic Association President.
Under his leadership, we are offering Basketball, Baseball, Football, Soccer, Girls Lacrosse and Environmental Projects for Generals Highway.

MARANA, Ariz. (AP) - And then there was one.
One day after Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods went home, more top seeds followed Friday in the Match Play Championship. Masters champion Bubba Watson was the only player from the top 10 remaining at Dove Mountain.
Watson, the No. 8 seed, missed two short putts that would have won the match before he finally put away Jim Furyk in 22 holes. It's the first time since 1999 that only one top-10 seed was remaining after two rounds.
Scott Piercy hammered third-seeded Luke Donald, Robert Garrigus beat No. 4 Louis Oosthuizen and fifth-seeded Justin Rose fell to Nicolas Colsaerts.
Shane Lowry became the first No. 64 seed to make it to the third round. The Irishman who beat McIlroy had no trouble getting past Carl Pettersson.

Tudors: The Complete Second Season, The (UK - BD RB)
Marcus Doidge takes a step back in time with the Tudors on Blu-ray Disc
I'll start by saying that I'd never seen either of first two seasons of The Tudors and more so I never had any inclination to. So when I got this, the second season of the internationally popular show, I went in feeling a little daunted. Firstly for the fact that this was the second season and I wasn't sure how lost I'd feel having never seen a single episode, and secondly this was for a review, so I couldn't even walk away from the show if it failed to grab me, and believe you me, I'm a hard TV viewer to grab, especially when it comes to period dramas.
The Tudors season two deals primarily with Henry VIII's (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) struggles with the Church. Not only in regards to the amount of control that he has over his Kingdom, but because he has recently hooked up with Anne Boleyn (Natalie Dormer) and ditched his first wife Katherine (Maria Doyle Kennedy) for this younger, hotter model. The Church aren't taking too kindly to the talk of divorce and Henry struggles to keep control of the religious sect of his kingdom as well as his decreasing popularity with all of the rest because of the recent split with Queen of Hearts, Katherine.
Initially this was a lot to take in. There was no 'Previously on The Tudors...' style introduction, which I was hoping for, and the show's opening sequence was a hard one to make out, what with its super camp slow motion headshots of the cast and its modern sensibilities. Once the show got underway and I watched the first on many debates between Henry and the church leaders, it felt as if I'd been dropped into the deep end of a swimming pool, struggling to follow what the hell was going on and what the arguments were actually about, but I persevered, as I do with all TV shows the first time I see them. I place a lot of faith in a screen writer's skill to create an entire episode that pays off, rather than forming an opinion on a flashy or dull introduction. Thankfully by the end of the first episode I felt comfortable within this period piece and felt a little happier about continuing, despite the fact I wasn't sold on the show.
Moving through the following few episodes I really began to get into some of the story arcs. Despite the fact I'm not a royalist or even a fan of this era in history, the dramatic themes that the show plays with are all classic: a leader losing control but ploughing onward despite the obstacles, secret love affairs, behind the scenes scheming, assassination plots, lusting after power and characters standing by their beliefs. It's all played out with grace and with a lot of good actors who can really sell it, which isn't as easy as it sounds considering just how many layers there are to this King Henry vs. the Church feud.
The Tudors isn't just about politics and period costumes though, it brings along some sex too, and the show has picked up quite a bit of word of mouth because of it. As I said before, I'd never seen the show, but I was well aware of its reputation for bringing the steam to the period drama. Now before all you viewers with a corset fetish start placing your orders, this isn't half as mucky as they'd like you to believe. This is basically a little T&A with a lethal dose of suggestion and in all honesty a lot of it feels a little tacked on to keep up appearances sometimes. There are a handful of cast, mostly mid thirties men, with fashion hair and designer stubble that always seem to end up alone with some hot housemaid or handmaiden and just as it gets to where they spend far too much time hinting at, it fades out or cuts to some other fully clothed bearded man on his way to talk to the church leaders or an executioner. The sex stuff certainly brings a welcome break from the many conversations, but let's just say it isn't exactly Californication.
So what of the cast? The character I liked from pretty much the get go was Anne Boleyn and not just because she's played by the cute Natalie Dormer and her Elvis lip. She's probably the most interesting character here because of her position in the ongoing butting of heads around the King. Her presence alone is the catalyst to many of the supporting casts' story arcs, whether it be their dislike of her as a person, her muscling in on the monarchy, or that they just want to get her in bed. Much of the entire second season has Anne Boleyn at the source of what keeps this show going, a hell of a lot more than the show's lead Jonathan Rhys Meyers has as Henry VIII anyway.
Meyers' portrayal as Henry is a weird one. For starters his accent and general demeanour is so much like Joaquin Phoenix's Commodus from Gladiator that it takes a good three or four episodes for it not to be distracting. Once I got past that I had real problems trying to work out how the lead character of a show could have the least to work with. What I mean by this is everyone else has two roles to play. The public, well spoken, very typical period drama role, and when they are in their homes or with friends or family, a softer or indeed harder edge emerges. These characters get to air their true feelings or darkest secrets and it's this element that I feel really brings The Tudors to life because you get a real sense of the conflicts going on above and below the surface, but with Henry it's all so one note. Meyers plays Henry in exactly the same way in every scene. He's stern, formal and once in a while he throws in a slimy grin. I guess it could be argued that as King, Henry's got nothing to hide or is confident enough in his decision making and bull headed enough in his power that he can be this guy 24/7 and hide it from nobody. Either way, I found the character really uninteresting, despite have a strong presence on screen and found he was only really there to throw out situations for the other more interesting characters to respond to.
As for the supporting cast, I really enjoyed Cromwell (James Fain) as a character doing what he's told by the King down to the letter, but playing a subtle sense of conflict under the surface. Peter O'Toole's portrayal as Pope Paul III was a lot of fun. O'Toole playing the persistent absurdity of the church with a glint of fun in his eye. He obviously loves playing this character and considering he is basically used as a tool (no pun intended) to update the audience with a quick overview of the situation in England in case they'd lost track, it was great to have it delivered by someone with this much charisma. I was also completely won over by Sir Thomas More (Jeremy Northam), who initially struck me as a villain, but through the courage of his convictions becomes the character who ultimately brought about the closing story arc for the final episodes that was the real key for me to enjoying The Tudors.
The Tudors wasn't the hard slog I thought it would be and after about five or six episodes, it had me wanting to know what would happen next. It has a well handled pace across the ten, hour-long episodes and subtly builds up to the eventful last episode where all of the hard work laid down in the build up comes to a head in a pleasing and rewarding climax.
With a great deal of The Tudors being shot on interior sets and a lot of that lit by fire light, I was immediately impressed by the warmness of the image. Everything bathes in a welcoming orange glow and it really adds a lot of drama to the show. However on closer inspection there is a thin layer of grainy mist separating the viewer from a truly great HD image.
This is all the more noticeable when we get exterior scenes and the mist disappears. The video really plays on its HD transfer in the bright lit courtyards or forests, with bright natural colours popping off the screen from the dense trees and gardens or brightly decorated Tudor clothing but even in the best of circumstances there's one noticeable issue: softness. The image is just that bit too far away from being sharp and because of it, much of the detail is underwhelming. In fact the only really noticeable detail was on some of the exterior sets, which showed old castle walls as art department facades.
Admittedly, I've not seen any TV show in HD at this point so have only movies to compare this to, but I'd hope that when my Lost season four box set arrives it'll be a lot more impressive than this was or my impressions of TV on HD could turn out to be very lukewarm.
As a show that is heavily based in the conversations of its characters, I'm glad to report that the dialogue here is presented in exactly the way needed. It's clear, crisp and comes with just the right amount of power to sell the depth of some of the characters' voices.
Atmospherics are also very good. The crackles of the large open fires were always impressive and great mood setters. In the many social get-togethers in the show, the sense of a lot of people in a room was always believable and each of the many different locations always seemed to capture the right atmosphere.
There are never any 'big' moments to really put the audio to test but for the style of the show the mix is a good one.
The first thing you are asked to do when selecting the first episode is to enable the Blu-ray to remember where you are up to, so it can resume from the same spot every time you come back for viewings. All very clever stuff.
As for actual featurettes, there are three. 'To Capture a King' (07:43), focuses on Jonathan Rhys Meyers' portrayal of Henry VIII from a historical standpoint, discussing how well he'd captured him physically as well as in attitude.
'To Play a Pope' (08:49) has Peter O'Toole's discussing his performance method as well as his knowledge of the church's history. It's good to get this straight from O'Toole as he can make anything sound interesting.
'Love & Passion in Tudor Times' (08.25) looks at the sexy side of The Tudors and how historians are glad this element plays such a part in the show.
All in all these struck me as little segments that turn up on TV when promoting the show and are essentially EPK's to get across what the show's about.
Finally there's a bunch of trailers for Vantage Point, 21 and Sony Blu-ray discs.
So I guess I could say that I enjoyed The Tudors. It's a well plotted, multi layered well written piece of entertainment that was a hell of a lot more accessible than I'd ever imaged it would be.
The last episode is the show working at its absolute best and a great season finale, but I can't say that it's made me want to go back to season one or indeed that it's got me excited about seeing more in the forthcoming season three.
These ten episodes made for a good weekend of watching and I'm sure fans of the show will enjoy the Blu-ray a lot, despite the lack of real in depth features. As for you non fans, give it a go. You never know, you just might end up enjoying it.

I'm not into blu-ray yet. My comment was directed to availability of the show on bluray. The Tudors is a show that might be of interest to have in this format when I do go blu.
I'm sure the more savy blu-ray owners will just order it online. Or if you're close to Canada, it is just a trip over the border after it comes out on Nov 25th.

As a lawyer, I am generally happy to see my fellow lawyers make money. But do they really need help from the government to do it, in the form of "stimulus" payments? I didn't think my opinion of Obama's "stimulus" program could fall any lower until I saw this:
An international law firm, which gave substantial political donations to President Obama and fellow Democrats over the last three campaign cycles, received its own significant stimulus award to advise on a controversial Department of Energy loan transaction with a struggling electric vehicle manufacturer.
The firm, Debevoise & Plimpton LLC, received $1,842,180 in Recovery Act funds to provide legal advice, conduct due diligence, and review documents for two loans from DOE's Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program.
Did you have any idea that stimulus money was going to Wall Street law firms? I didn't. This appears to be another example of the Obama administration's corrupt cronyism in action:
According to data compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics, employees of the law firm gave $199,944 to Sen. Barack Obama for his 2008 presidential campaign, compared to $9,650 for Republican nominee Sen. John McCain of Arizona. Over the last three congressional election cycles (two cycles for the presidency, including this year), Debevoise staff members have donated $746,535 to Democrat candidates and political committees, including $284,420 to the Obama campaign. In contrast, Republican candidates and their support groups received $57,451 from employees of the law firm. Debevoise's media relations manager, Suzanne Elio, is a former Democratic National Committee fundraiser, and top lawyer David Rivkin reportedly served on President Obama's National Finance Committee, even hosting a fundraiser for presidential candidate Obama in his home in 2007.
As of 2010, the average Debevoise partner earned $2.06 million. I don't begrudge them a penny of it, but in a sane world does the federal government pay them $1.8 million to facilitate an unbelievably stupid and corrupt waste of taxpayer money? And then call it a "stimulus?" I don't think so.

Germ 7-10 days (Lagenaria siceraria)
Do you want to captivate the onlookers of your autumn displays and decorations? Then growing this light green colored gourd exploding with blisters will surely bring their attention. Apple shaped, grows to a 9" x 12" size and weighs 4-7 lbs. 25 seeds
Gourd plants are extremely vigorous and require a long, warm growing season, ranging from 95 to 120 days to maturity. Gourds are ready for harvest when the stems dry and turn brown. Harvest before a frost. This is a Lagenaria or hard-skinned gourd and can be dried in a two step process, taking 1 to six months depending on the size of the gourd. First you must clean and dry the outside surface, wiping with alcohol will ensure the surface dries completely. Place the clean gourd in a dark, well ventilated area for about a week, turning and checking daily. Discard any fruit showing any signs of decay or soft spots, do not allow other fruit to touch. After about a week, the outer skin of the gourd should be well dried. Internal drying is the second step and can take one to six months, depending on the size of the fruit. Providing warmth will hasten the curing process and discourage decay. Keep in a dark, well ventilated area and wipe away any mold that appears with bleach. As long as the gourd is hard, it should be fine. Check often and turn so that it will dry evenly. When the gourd is light in weight and you can hear seeds rattling inside when shaken, it is ready for painting, waxing, or shellacking. 25 seeds.
Indoors- Individual biodegradable peat/cowpots 1" deep, 3-4 weeks before last frost with soil temperature at 70 degrees. Transplant after last frost without disturbing the roots.
Outdoors- Plant 1" deep, after last frost, when soil warms to 70 degrees. Plant 2-3 seeds every 18-36" apart, with the large varieties the furthest apart.
Harvest- When the skin is hardening and the stem is shriveled, brown, and dried. Cut the stem off closest to the vine.
Cucurbita Gourds- Harvest mature gourds before cold weather. Frost or freezing conditions causes' injury to skins. Keep in a cool, dark, dry place for curing.
Lagenaria Gourds- Harvest in the fall after light frosts, when leaves die but before heavy frost arrives. Require a long drying period; 3-6 months with good ventilation and the gourds should not be touching each other. Check often for soft or rotten ones, discard them and if mold forms, wipe it off. When the seeds rattle inside and feel light they are dried.
Tips- Vines can grow 15 feet or more. Grow on a trellis for more uniform, straight gourds and for more garden space.

The Islamic world has long been wrestling with the danger of extremism and radicalism. Although the number of those attempting to make extremism part of Islam is not large, there are still many people who believe this minority. These people are also portrayed as Muslims in the media. The people in question generally come to the fore with hatred, threats, fear and rage, implement violence and thus manage to remain on the agenda. The word "Muslim" has always brought to mind these people's loveless aspects, and that has always suggested war, hatred and rage.
Extremists who claim to be Muslims proclaim the religion they establish on the basis of their own rules to be Islam. But that religion has nothing to do with Islam. Such people are generally unaware of the error they find themselves in. These people engage in intense activities in order to depict things described as lawful and fine in the Qur'an as unlawful, inflicting lack of quality on the Islamic world and portraying Islam, a religion of peace, as one of war and hatred. Asked about the source of the nonsense they append to the faith, they can never produce any evidence from the Qur'an. Most of them ignorantly violate our Almighty Lord's verse "You who have iman! do not make haram the good things Allah has made halal for you, and do not overstep the limits. Allah does not love people who overstep the limits" (Surat al-Ma'ida, 87) by trying to make delights praised by the Qur'an unlawful. As a result, they produce their own cold religion of hatred, devoid of quality.
The fact is that Islam is a religion of love, affection, beauty and happiness.
In contrast to the false religion of the extremists, Allah states in the Qur'an that Islam is a religion of beauty, quality and felicity:
Islam is based on love:
Allah loves to loves. In the verse "As for those who have iman and do right actions, the All-Merciful will bestow His love on them" (Surah Maryam, 96) our Almighty Lord reveals how Muslims have love in their hearts, not hatred.
There is no hatred for the People of the Book (Jews and Christians) in Islam:
Love and affection for and protection of the People of the Book are fundamental. In verse 5 of Surat al-Ma'ida, Almighty Allah makes if lawful for Muslims to eat food prepared by Jews and Christians. The same verse also permits Muslims to marry women from the People of the Book. In other words, according to this verse of the Qur'an, a Jew or a Christian is not to be hated, she is a Muslim's wife and beloved with whom he will live in the hereafter. In verse 169 of Surat al-A'raf, Allah reveals there are "a group who guide by the truth" among the Jews. In verses 113, 114 and 199 of Surat al-'Imran, verse 52 of Surat al-Qasas, verse 162 of Surat an-Nisa', verse 62 of Surat al-Baqara and verses 12 and 69 of Surat al-Ma'ida, Allah reveals the existence of "Jews and Christians who have a deep faith in Allah." He promises them a fine reward. So according to the Qur'an, the People of the Book, who some radicals regard with hatred, are the friends and even the wives of Muslims.
In Islam, everyone can read the Qur'an in his own language, everywhere and under all circumstances:
In the verse "And remember the Signs of Allah and the wise words which are recited in your rooms." (Surat al-Ahzab, 34) our Lord reveals that the verses of the Qur'an should be read all the time and that their wisdom should be grasped and not forgotten. The Qur'an can be read at all times and in all places. There are no commandments about not touching the Qur'an. The important thing is to understand it. Therefore, everyone must read it is his own language and grasp the wisdom of its verses. According to verse 44 of Surat az-Zukhruf, in the hereafter all Muslims will be asked about the Qur'an, which the radicals hang on a wall and forget or read in Arabic and fail to understand. Therefore, nobody must be led astray by the radicals into abandoning the Qur'an and their acts of worship.
There is no sorrow in Islam:
Islam is a religion of joy and happiness. Allah says that Muslims should laugh and be happy. According to the Qur'an, weeping and sorrow are features of the people of hell. Of them, Allah says, "Let them laugh little and weep much." (Surat at-Tawba, 82) therefore, a Muslim has a responsibility to live in a way that will be pleasing to Allah, by laughing and being happy and joyful.
Quality, cleanliness, beauty, art, science, education, fineness and being well-groomed are important in Islam:
People who have for years claimed to stand for Islam with filthy and badly maintained clothes are trying to make a religious law out of a piece of nonsense. Yet in the verse "Purify your clothes. Shun all filth." (Surat al-Mudaththir, 4-5), Allah advises Muslims to keep their clothes and homes clean. He advises them to reflect and grow in knowledge. The Qur'an describes the palace of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh) as one of the finest examples of beauty and esthetics. For that reason, Muslims must be the best-groomed, best-quality and most cultured people in the world.
Quality is essential to all aspects of life for a Muslim. But those who misinterpret Islam seek to present and live by a conception of Islam that is devoid of quality. For that reason, some people equate Islam with the kind of life these people live and therefore oppose the Qur'an. Because of these people's peculiar ideas, Muslims are exposed to strong criticism in many countries. Because they generally depict an ill-kempt, filthy and ugly life style that is incompatible with Islam and the Qur'an as actually being Islam. They behave with no quality in their eating habits, clothing and speech. And they are determined to maintain that lack of quality. They establish a model intended to totally eradicate beauty and regard it as a sin. They claim that someone who is ugly and ill-kempt is full of takwa. They do not listen to music, they do not like paintings, they avoid people and do not speak, and they never compliment anyone. Because of these strange ideas, they themselves actually detest their lives because of the lack of quality they experience at every moment.
Something comparable in this world to the beauty and quality that Allah creates in paradise is only possible by living by true Islamic values. Compliments, winning people over, altruism, consideration, peace, love, affection, compassion, democracy, freedom of ideas, having fun, joy, pleasant architecture and being attractive and well-groomed all have a place in the true Islam.
Extremists who forfeit all blessing sin this world, who regard the blessing of love as the opposite of Islam and who equate pleasant homes and clothes and living amid blessings with those who abandon Allah seek to portray religion as living in poverty. Yet Allah has made believers worthy of all blessings. He refers to those who try to make His blessings as lawful as follows in a verse:
Say: 'Who has forbidden the fine clothing Allah has produced for His slaves and the good kinds of provision?' Say: 'On the Day of Rising such things will be exclusively for those who had iman during their life in the dunya.' In this way We make the Signs clear for people who know. (Surat al-A'raf, 32)
Beauty, joy, quality, happiness, modernity and affection all exist for Muslims. That is the Muslim model in the Qur'an. The Muslim in the Qur'an is intelligent and educated. He is modern and outward-looking and high-quality. The Muslim in the Qur'an eradicates hatred and brings love. The Muslim in the Qur'an tries to instill love instead of sorrow, and peace instead of conflict. The Muslim in the Qur'an is attractive, well-groomed, well-dressed, pleasant-smelling and lives in a spotless home. That is why they have no need for wealth or to cover or uncover their heads. Beauty, modernity, nobility and quality, immaculate clothes and a well-maintained body, fine language and a loving, radiant face all emerge naturally.
The Islamic world needs peaceful and enlightened people who apply the true Qur'an. The false model that seeks to add nonsense to Islam, that makes lawful things unlawful and that brings rage and hatred to the world must be abandoned. For that reason, true Muslims who abide by the Qur'an must show the world the model of the Muslim in the Qur'an, must be exceptionally high quality and loving and must educate those people who misinterpret Islam. And that is what Allah wants from us.

Recipe courtesy of Alton Brown
This spicy Cajun gumbo, a stew originating in Louisiana in the 18th century, gains much of its flavor from the dark roux and its characteristic thickness from file, an herb made from the ground leaves of the sassafras tree. Onions, celery and green peppers, the "holy trinity" of both Creole and Cajun cooking, add flavor and substance to the thick shrimp and sausage stew, which is served over a heaping portion of white rice.
Total: 3 hr 30 min
Prep: 1 hr
Cook: 2 hr 30 min
Yield: 6 servings
Level: Intermediate
4 ounces vegetable oil
4 ounces all-purpose flour
1 1/2 pounds raw, whole, head-on medium-sized (31-50 count) shrimp
2 quarts water
1 cup diced onion
1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced green peppers
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1/2 cup peeled, seeded and chopped tomato
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 bay leaves
1/2 pound andouille sausage, cut into 1/4-inch pieces and browned
1 tablespoon file powder
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the vegetable oil and flour into a 5 to 6-quart cast iron Dutch oven and whisk together to combine. Place on the middle shelf of the oven, uncovered, and bake for 1 1/2 hours, whisking 2 to 3 times throughout the cooking process.
While the roux is baking, de-head, peel and devein the shrimp. Place the shrimp in a bowl and set in the refrigerator. Place the heads and shells in a 4-quart saucepan along with the 2 quarts of water, set over high heat and bring to a boil. Decrease the heat to low and simmer for 1 hour or until the liquid has reduced to 1-quart. Remove from the heat and strain the liquid into a container, discarding the solids.
Once the roux is done, carefully remove it from the oven and set over medium-high heat. Gently add the onions, celery, green peppers and garlic and cook, moving constantly for 7 to 8 minutes or until the onions begin to turn translucent. Add the tomatoes, salt, black pepper, thyme, cayenne pepper, and bay leaves and stir to combine. Gradually add the shrimp broth while whisking continually. Decrease the heat to low, cover and cook for 35 minutes. Turn off the heat, add the shrimp and sausage and stir to combine. Add the file powder while stirring constantly. Cover and allow to sit for 10 minutes prior to serving. Serve over rice.

Pine? Fir? Spruce? If you erect a tree in your home this month, does it matter to you which species you select and whether it's thick and cultured or naturally grown? Or is the big decision maybe between real and… blech… artificial? (Sorry, but I have a bias!)
I realize there are people living in some cultures, locations, or situations where evergreen trees are not included in the celebration, but our home is not one of them. While "O Tannenbaum" isn't among my favourite carols, I never feel quite ready for Christmas until our tree is in place. Believe me, the fragrance of fresh cut greenery in the house is better than any scented candle!
Those of us who advocate for a "real" tree often have very strong opinions about what constitutes the ideal one. Many of the trees I grew up with were Lodgepole pines because that's the variety commonly found in the area of our Cariboo property. Their long branches can be a little 'gawky' at times, but I like them, even if I've occasionally referred to one of ours as a 'Charlie Brown' tree.
Identifying the species or subspecies doesn't matter a whole lot to me, as long as I like its looks, but if I were writing about the Christmas tree gracing my protagonist's living room, I'd be in trouble with that attitude. For readers living in pine country, the description might elicit a particular mental image, so it had better be accurate. It's not enough to mention the existence of a generic Christmas tree, either; details are important. And if there are cones being saved for a craft project, they'd better be typical of the species.
Have you ever been reading a novel and come to a grinding halt at some inconsistency – some detail you know is not correct? John Grisham* may be tired of hearing from readers about his incorrect reference to the Inuit living in Newfoundland and a woman "born in an igloo" there, but it's a lesson for all writers. Remember, if you send your characters out into the woods to cut down a long-needled Ponderosa (or bull pine) Christmas tree, the story needs to take place in an area where they grow in the wild.
Does your Christmas decorating include a tree? What's your idea of a perfect one? Do you use specific details like these to enrich your writing?
*The Testament (John Grisham)

I have been thinking about another car for track and drive once in while in town. My options so far are a 2000 vette or a 2000 boxter. Which one do you think will be easier to work on/modify and more affordable ?

Ok so tell us what have you been working on? Could be cars, guns or any other toy. I am still working on my hard top, trying to dial in my tune maybe going with power steering, I almost have all the parts. I just don't know if I can finish before October. I can make it for September dam work. As far as guns I am busy reloading and burning trough 22 I still have a few thousand I can burn before I start getting low.

Hills, MI - Camp Jeep(R), one of the nation's
largest and best-attended ownership gatherings, expands
to two locations and dates next year, and will be open to
not only Jeep owners but to the general public for the first
time in the event's nine-year history. New
dates and locations will be announced to consumers on the
website and at 1-800-789-JEEP starting December
Camp Jeep 2003 will be held at the Oak Ridge Estate in the
Blue Ridge Mountains of Nelson County, Va., Thursday, June
26 - Saturday, June 28. Camp Jeep California will be held
at Gardner Ranch in the Santa Inez Mountains north of Santa
Barbara, Calif., Thursday, August 14 - Saturday, August
"Camp Jeep is, arguably, one of the world's greatest
owner celebrations. It's something that only Jeep would
do," said Jeff Bell, Vice President-Jeep Division,
DaimlerChrysler Corporation. "Families come from
all over the world to celebrate the Jeep spirit and what
it stands for. It's only natural to make Camp Jeep available
to both coasts and give people more of what they love about
For the first time, Camp Jeep will open its doors to the
public on the Saturday of each event at both locations.
"People really have to see Camp Jeep and experience
it for themselves to believe it," said Bell. "The
pride our owners have for their vehicles and the fun they
have is amazing. It begins with their passion for the outdoors
and continues with the camp environment and music. We want
to show 'non-Jeepers' what the fuss is all about!"
Camp Jeep recently won international recognition for "Best
Program Generating Brand Loyalty" in the Marketing
Agency Association (MAA) Worldwide 2002 GLOBES Awards. The
event also won in the same category for Promo Magazine's
annual PRO Awards earlier this fall.
One of the most popular highlights of the event is the Jeep
101 courses, designed to teach attendees basic off-highway
driving and safety skills, and to demonstrate capabilities
of the Jeep Liberty, Grand Cherokee and Wrangler.Participants
are paired with experienced guides as they negotiate steep
downhill grades and encounter large rocks, log-crossings,
sand and other off- highway obstacles. Once they have mastered
the Jeep vehicle's capabilities, they can navigate various
levels of 4x4 trails in their own Jeep vehicles. Jeep owners
also can visit the Engineering Village and participate in
roundtable discussions with Jeep engineers and other guests
to learn more about what distinguishes a Jeep brand vehicle
from any other four-wheel vehicle in the world.
Camp Jeep 2003 and Camp Jeep California also will feature
numerous lifestyle and family activities, live musical performances
and a fireworks finale. Details will be released in a separate
Camp Jeep is one of several owner-loyalty programs created
by the Jeep division of DaimlerChrysler. Jeep Jamborees,
which began in the 1950s, are the original off-highway vacation.
From the Maine Mountains to the famed Rubicon Trail, approximately
7,000 owners participate in the more than 30 Jamborees held
each year. The excellent response to Camp Jeep led to the
spin-off of Jeep 101. Jeep 101 driving courses are offered
in cities across the nation to provide owners and prospective
owners basic skills of safe, yet adventurous off-road driving.
Approximately 3,000 vehicles are expected to be registered
for each Camp Jeep location in 2003. To date, approximately
55,000 people from 48 states have attended Camp Jeep.
From 1995-1998, Camp Jeep was held in Camp Hale, Colo. From
1999-2001, Camp Jeep was located at Oak Ridge Estate in
Nelson County, Va. In 2002, Camp Jeep was held at the White's
Bar W Ranch near Branson, Mo. The event has sold out each
People can visit the Jeep website to find more information

December 11. Registration for both events will begin in
2003. Registration fees are $325 per Jeep vehicle for participation
in all Camp Jeep activities and $95 per non-Jeep vehicle
for participation in the Saturday (last day), activities.

Police: Manchester mother led break-in, assault
Staff Report
— Police said they followed a blood trail to the Wilson Street apartment where a city woman, her son and a third person broke into the apartment and the woman announced: "We are going to rob you."
The man who lives in the apartment said that he and his wife are "loosely related" to Melissa Murray, 36, of 244 Wilson St., and her son, Tyler, 19, who smashed a window to get into the apartment.
The male victim, who is in a wheelchair, told police that Murray and her son, Tyler, 19, and a man later identified as Amuri Diole, 20, of 57 Sullivan St., came into the apartment and assaulted them.
The man said he was sitting in the kitchen when he heard a window break and Murray and her son climbed through the broken window, unlocking the kitchen door for the third person, a short, stocky man.
The victim said he told Murray, who is a frequent visitor, to get out and that's when she told him: "We are going to rob you."
He said Murray then picked up a few pieces of glass and threw them at his face, causing cuts, which he said did not require medical attention.
He said his wife then entered the kitchen and began arguing with Murray, Tyler and Diole. She told police that Tyler had a hammer in his hand and was swinging it around and Diole had a small red bat, about a foot long.
The resident said she grabbed Murray's left arm and started pushing her toward the door, with Tyler and Diole following. The woman said Murray had a piece of glass in her right hand and turned around and sliced her on the right arm. A police offier noted there was a piece of skin about the size of a quarter missing from her forearm, police said.
An officer who spotted Murray on the street and attempted to speak with her said she fled to her third floor residence at 244 Wilson St. She was scene through the door, standing in the kitchen bleeding from her left hand.
Officers forced their way in and, after a struggle, were able to handcuff Murray.
In Circuit Court-Manchester District Division Monday, Murray could enter no plea to charges of armed robbery, first-degree assault (2), and burglary, so a probable cause hearing was set for May 7. Trial on two misdemeanor charges of resisting arrest was set for June 4.
A police prosecutor said Murray had convictions in both 2012 and 2013 for resisting arrest and requested $25,000 cash/surety bail. Judge Gregory Michael set bail at a total of $15,000 cash/surety.
Tyler Murray was arraigned on felony charges of burglary and armed robbery and a probable cause hearing was set for May 7. Trial was set for June 4 on misdemeanors of resisting arrest and theft by unauthorized taking and a violation of unlawful possession of alcohol.
His bail is $10,000 cash/surety, but there is a 72-hour probation hold on him in connection with 2013 convictions in Hillsborough County Superior Court North for forgery and receiving stolen property.
The judge set bail at $1,500 personal recognizance for Diole, who pleaded innocent to a resisting arrest charge. Trial was set for June 4.

The last two days have been filled with great experiences. We took a trip to Abbey Road and walked the crosswalk of the Beatles, saw "Bolt" run the 200 m, talked with the U.S.A. super heavyweight boxer, Dominick Breazeale, on the train and watched the Mayor of London,
Boris Johnson, stroll by our blanket as we snoozed after lunch. The Olympic Park is bursting with attendees. It went from being comfortable to overcrowded but we still can't believe what incredible
things we see... so many people in harmony. John Lennon would be proud. — The DeCourcy Family, Wethersfield
