The Narrative
V-Com Partition Destroyer
aka Partition Commander
RSI / CTD / CTS / tendinitis / carpal tunnel tips
Summary Judgment Motion Hearing
Counterclaim & answers [Round 2]
In May of 1995, I was diagnosed with tendinitis. Over the next year, I had submitted to drugs, occupational and physical therapies with little success. In May of 1996 my treating physiatrist had recommended three to four weeks acupuncture. But this acupuncture treatment would require my being out of work, or the treatment would not work. MSI (now part of Mattel) had asked me to wait until the three weeks after product released. I waited until after some of the release dates had passed and kept delaying my treatment as my condition was completely debilitating. Then after delaying my treatment for over 4 months, MSI stated that they had no release date for the product. I could not keep delaying my treatment, so I went on the date that they had me commit to. MSI knew I had a serious medical condition; MSI has received documentation that this was work related; MSI received multiple medical reports stating that time off was needed for treatment. MSI was warned that this would be violating the American with Disabilities Act and Massachusetts Workers Compensation Laws. Even though they have been warned, MSI fired me. MSI used a rule for unapproved absences that they admitted that they did not enforce, even though another employee disappeared from the office for over a day.
I am afflicted with tenosynovitis, a form of tendinitis. Tendinitis is a repetitive stress injury (RSI), or cumulative trauma disorder (CTD), which is in the same category as Carpal Tunnel. This condition arose from working long hours at the keyboard in a bad ergonomic situation and under much stress. When I followed my treating doctors' recommendations, the management at MSI fired me. When I requested reasonable accommodations, they refused. Management claimed that the doctor's statement of "I would recommend three weeks of intensive therapy, including acupuncture, while away from work" was too vague to be followed. Though MSI claimed the instructions vague, MSI refused to follow the law in getting this clarified. MSI still is using software that belongs to me, without my authorization. They have, so far, refused to remove my personally owned software from their systems.
MSI was projecting a CaLANdar 4.0 release for early July of 1996. I was trying to wait until after this release before taking an unpaid medical leave.

New Additions to Criminal Minds Drinking Game
As some of you may know, we are drinking game fans, as well as Criminal Minds fans. I just posted something about a drinking game about our favorite show, yet I don't think they give enough opportunities to drunk. Here are some more potential rules that Erika and I (the drunk slutty slut, Hazel) have come up with:
– every time Reid spits off a crazy fact (relevant or not)
– every time you see someone you wanna fuck
– every time you sympathize with an unsub (mental disorder, due to abuse, etc)
– every time you see one of Morgan's tattoos
– every time Elle is overtly sexual
– every time they jump to a conclusion
– every time Hotch talks to his son
– every time the unsub is a member of a police force
– every time the unsub threatens to kill their current victim
– every time the victim tries to negotiate with the unsub
– every time a BAU team members' child in in danger
– every time there is a conflict with another government agency (foreign or domestic)
– every time they reference social media
– every time you get your heart broken
– every time they say "[wait] I think the unsub is a woman"
– every time Garcia makes a sexual comment when answering the phone and it wasn't Morgan who called
– every time there's "something they've never seen before" or something "unheard of"
– every time you recognize an actor that plays in another movie/show
– every time you aww at how much of a family the BAU team is
– every time you want to personally murder an unsub
– every time Morgan takes off an article of clothing
– sexual tension
– every time Garcia wows the team with her skills
– every time it's near a college campus
– every time you notice that JJ has a new haircut/style
– every time Reid references chess/another game
– every time you wanna fuck Morgan (JK you'd get alcohol poisoning)
As you might tell, we like drinking. Get ready to get thraaaaaaashed

or, as in Erika's phone: Hazel newly single drunk slut
Criminal Minds Drinking Game
Tonight, Erika and I (still drunk Hazel) drink heavily to deal with recent pains. I just got rejected, and while people say that it's not my fault, i can't help but think that I'm the one that fucked it up hard core. I'm sorry this isn't fun, but I'm really kind of hanging onto the fact that he said that he liked me and we should take it slow and be friends for a while… maybe meaning that later we wouldn't just be friends? I don't think it was just a rebound, but maybe it is. I'm honestly more upset than our ending than me and my ex ending things… I'm just kind of in a state of hating myself. Maybe this means I can just have more drunk slutty sex and focus more on school? Yet I still don't feel good. I feel drunk, but no where near good. Anywho, here are the rules to the criminal minds drinking games, although I don't think they give enough enough opportunities to drink… Just wanna hide away forever
The Sex Diaries (Volume I, Part II)
Dear readers,
I've received some requests about post topics, and I've decided to post about bruises.
I'm all for rough sex, but it can be hard to deal with the post-sex marks/bruises that may have been made. When dealing with rough sex, it's really important for you to set boundaries about what you would like:
– spanking?
– choking?
– tying down?
All of these are very important for you (and your partner) to know about, as it can be vital to your safety and comfort. As said in my last post, communication is key!
Another important aspect to think about is the possible lasting signs of rough sex–bruises. While rough sex can be fun, it isn't always fun to explain bruises all over and bite marks to coworkers, family and friends. In scenarios like these, it's important to make a game plan: either ride out the rough sex and deal with the explanations, or you and your partner can reach an agreement on what to do (any rough activities won't leave bruises/less rough sex/etc.)
Essentially what I'm saying is that if rough sex is your thing (and gosh I don't blame you), then it's important that you stay safe, keep communication with your partner and make sure that you do what's best for you–both in the moment and for your future! The last thing you want to have to explain is black eyes and bite mark bruises to sexual health professionals, so make sure you all stay safe and keep riding it rough!
Lube is for the weak
– Hazel
3:30 PM Wednesday update by Hazel
2.5 shots of shitty tequila sure go down smooth on afternoons like this.
I work at 6:30 AM tomorrow.
I like a boy and he likes me yet I'm perpetually scared that he'll flake out.
I'm a little too obsessed with Pink Floyd.
Yes, the alcohol is kicking in.
I gave myself a nick name last year: still-drunk Hazel. I plan on keeping the legacy going.

Livingston Lures feature Electronic Baitfish Sound Technology, (EBS), which is embedded on a smart chip in the internal sound chamber of each lure. This EBS Technology produces natural biological sounds mimicking baitfish that bass, walleye, pike, redfish, striper, perch and all predatory fish feed on. Natural baitfish sounds call fish from beyond their sight, including in dark or dirty water. Once fish are called and are in sight range, the sounds trigger instinctual survival strikes. The technology is activated when the lure is submerged in water & automatically turns off when out of the water and completely dry. This realistic-looking lure will get down deep (20 to 30 feet!) with ease, and is great for either casting or trolling. With wild side-to-side wobble and irresistible biological baitfish sounds produced by EBS. The Interceptor is an excellent lure for catching all predatory game fish such as walleye, salmon, trout, bass, musky, pike and more!

Affordable and a nice area and place to live.
Hall ways are dirty and smell bad. Very noisey!..
Thank you
The retaliation against me is off-the-charts. I thought this apt. complex was the same as it was 6-7 years ago. After I move in I notice my (shared wall) neighbor did not like it when I called the police on her for have 2 little kids alone in the apartment with gas stove. I found out because they were banging our shared wall and a few pictures fell off the wall. I went to talk with my neighbor...not there. By the time the police arrived she was there...She climbed back in through her bedroom window. This same woman use to be able to sit in the common area and smoke a bunch of cigarettes and leave her butts and ashes all over. Yes, I am a smoker...but the cigarette receptacle is 3 steps from where she throws her buts. She can no longer park her kids bike outside her door...this never bothered me. They were not in my way. So now she has not act like a normal tenant and respect other tenants. She retaliates by ponding on our shared wall. Plays her music extremely loud...not like before...she opens and closes her door 'banging it' 3 times sequentially several times a day. The kids stand outside my door and SCREAM. The response from management is that this is normal noise and I need to get over it. Yes...I have saved all my papers from Emily, Angel and Maureen. Don't try to improve Hyde Park Apts by obeying the rules or reporting to the office that these kind of things go on. Oh no...because you will get retaliation from the tenant that is made to follow the rules....and Management will do nothing about it. I can hardly wait until my lease is up.

Home > WORDWAYS > Vol. 3 > Iss. 1 (1970)
Article Title
In the May 1969 issue of Word Ways, David Silverman discusses Word Cycles. He says that "cycles of three ... are harder to come by, and cycles of two, e.g., BOAT HOUSE, are downright scarce". This is the kind of statement that immediately raises my hackles and sends me to the dictionary in search of a refutation, particularly when the problem seems so trivial.

Dear Bianca,
I've been dating this girl for about a year, off and on. Our relationship has been like a roller coaster the entire time. We break up, make up, and get back together, only to break up again a few months later.
When we fight, we hate each other. But as soon as we break up and get a little time a part, we can't stand to be away. I don't know anyone else with a crazy relationship like this, but it seems to work for us.
My friends have been encouraging me to find another girl and move on. They're tired of hearing me whine every time we break up. I can understand where they're coming from, but I really love this girl. And I think she loves me.
Is it okay to stay in this crazy relationship? Or should I pack up, move on, and try to find someone a little more stable?
-- Happy for Now
Dear Happy for Now,
It sounds like you're not ready to leave this situation just yet. But if the pattern continues, this roller coaster of a relationship could cause serious problems in the future.
What if you two decide to get married. Say you stay together long enough to knock the lady up, but you start to fight again after the kid comes. I once knew a couple who had a similar relationship pattern of breaking up and making up, and their pre-teen daughter was often stuck right in the middle. Today, that daughter is all grown up and still dealing with her parents' on-again, off-again drama.
It's possible that things aren't working out because you're not compatible with this girl. Maybe you do love her, but the key to making a relationship work is not just love. It's compatibility.
If, however, you're not looking to settle down anytime soon, then staying in the relationship might work for you. If the good times are worth a few bad times here and there, go for it. But don't expect to build a life with this lady.
Got a problem? Email Bianca at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Browse these personal chefs with great ratings from Thumbtack customers in Elizabeth.
My company hired Ellen to prepare a breakfast spread for a client meeting we were having last week, 20 people total. Ellen was fantastic, she went above and beyond our expectations and the food she served was delicious. Everyone was very happy with how it turned out, we would absolutely recommend Ellen for any personal chef needs!
My husband gave me a great 50th birthday party gift of a personal chef to have a summer evening handled by Chuck with 9 of my friends. The food was fantastic, presented well and my friends raved! What I loved most was how easy Chuck was to work with and how accommodating he was. On time, prepared and best part was my kitchen and home were left in tip top shape. We were so happy- Chuck and his wife Maria were attentive yet unobtrusive at the same time. I absolutely loved my evening and would have Chuck come back for more parties!
Bad boy celebrity chef Chris Nirschell is a rising star! My co-hostess and I hired Chris to be the personal chef for a small very select social group in NYC. The food was delectable, mouth watering and fabulous! His butternut squash? Puree based, no cream? It was wonderful. We also had a wonderful fall harvest salad and wild caught salmon as the entree. All (again) simply mouth watering! The last course was a mango fosters. Almond gelato and homemade whipped cream. Sweet and light. We had a wine pairing with all four courses. Chris plated the meal with artistry; he announced and described each course and was knowledgeable about the wine with which we paired each course. We will use him again. I hope our group is grandfathered into his reasonable rates for the future!! Thank you Chef Chris!
I found Bacco Caterers on Thumbtack. I was impressed with the five stars and the reviews, so I contacted Chef Lauren to begin to see if she was the caterer for usand was she ever! Joyce and I wanted to include our friends and family in our marriage anniversary celebration in our Brooklyn home. We are novice Open House hosts and Lauren advised us re details we would never have thought of, including in our menu selections. Her staff, chef Amanda and sous chef Laura, created freshly made hors dhoeuvres in our kitchen as the party occurred, superb finger food that was varied, interesting, and delicious! People, including us, loved it. The servers Karen, Tony, and Kevin, and bartender Elroy were unobtrusively attentive and friendly to our guests. Our party took place on two floors and the yard, and the staff kept the food appearing and the empty glasses disappearing with seeming effortlessness. Many guests commented on how comfortable they made everyone feel, contributing to the general sense of joyousness. In spite of our request for no gifts, or perhaps because of it, many of our 50 guests brought flowers. As soon as I was handed the bouquets, Tony would appear and would arrange them in vases I had directed him to when flowers first arrived. I was free during the whole party to visit with my friends and family. I, who am not a party-person, enjoyed myself fully during this celebration, and I am grateful to Chef Lauren and her staff for the many ways (including a fantastic clean-up) they helped make that possible.

Tamara is simply AMAZING! She is not only an extremely capable and very talented chef, but is also a consummate professional. She knew exactly the type of food that would lend itself to our organization and the event. We had nothing to worry about. Tamara catered a 300 person event for us and people are still raving about her delicious and creative food items. She is a joy to work with and helped make our Benefit an incredible success. Thank you Tamara!
A perfect experience. I would recommend these chefs to anyone. I used it for a 1 year wedding anniversary and absolutely loved it. Don't think twice at hiring these guy!
From planning the menu to executing the dinner and service, Chef Daniel was very accommodating and professional. His chef services were exactly what I was looking for to add a special touch to my sister's bachelorette weekend. My guests and I continue to rave about the food!
Do you want to know the definition of Excellence? Hire Luisa c/o De Cicco's Event Planning! I have never worked with a more professional, friendly company. Luisa has a way of catering to her client's and making them feel like they're at the top of her priority list. If you need her, drop her an E-mail and she IMMEDIATELY gets back to you. Need a personal Chef to teach you how to cook? Luisa can connect you with top of the line quality professional's that KNOW what they're doing in the kitchen. I'm currently taking lesson's from her Chef and I went from being a novice who's food was either bland, burnt and completely un-edible, to a person who can now chop, dice and make a meal so good, my family calls me asking me to cook for them again. Luisa and her staff are so friendly, so welcoming and very attentive to the needs of the client. Luisa has done a fine job in picking her staff and Im extremely happy I hired her company because it was worth every penny.
Just paid a deposit to book Melissa for my event next weekend. Yay!!!!!! This is the 1st time I have hired a professional chef to cater for our monthly dinner party and had a lot of questions and concerns before going into it. Melissa has been extremely prompt, professional and patient in addressing all of my issues and I am really looking forward to working with her. I am confident my event will be a great success and I will be sure to post some more reviews/photos thereafter.
Amazing meal and easy to work with. I have hired many chefs but Aless was one of the best. All my guests were impressed.
Alana is an outstanding Chef, she is professional, committed and passionate. She created an amazing buffet-cocktail menu for our event. We recommend her as she is one of the best chef in town.
Melissa was great. We had an in-depth conversation up front about our dietary restrictions including a shellfish allergy, a gluten sensitivity, and a dairy sensitivity within our party. Overall, we were aiming for a vegan meal. She worked with us and gave us multiple suggestions on dinner options based on our likes and dislikes. She even came by the house to provide samples of her dishes before the event. The night of the event, she did a great job executing appetizers, dinner, and dessert. The food was delicious and she left our kitchen in better shape than she found. I highly recommend Melissa as your next personal chef!
EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME! I was celebrating my 10 year wedding anniversary and I wanted to surprise my wife with a private chef. I have a hard time keeping a secret from my wife but everything worked out perfectly. Chef Gregory was prompt and the food was delicious. The presentation of his food was off the chart! He prepared my favorite dish and my wife's favorite dish. The portions were great and we had enough for the next day to enjoy. I definitely look forward to hiring him again.
Peter is not only a very talented chef, but also a lovely man and a pleasure to be around. Peter has prepared meals for myself and my family regularly over the last year and has been a huge success with us all. I unreservedly recommend anyone to try Peter's excellent work. You will be extremely happy. :)
My parents had a lovely 3-course meal and were truly surprised and delighted by having a private chef come tho their home! I highly recommend Francis for a special event or to give someone a nice, unexpected surprise.
What a crew! The chefs, waiters, bartenders were all knowledgeable and attentive to my guest's needs. Starting with the spring fling cocktail to the grilled watermelon dessert, all of the food and drink was superb.
We were looking for an authentic Louisiana chef and Chef Rob fit the bill.....the food was amazing.....fit right into our mardi gras theme......it was delicious and everybody enjoyed it......even had people ask for MORE when there wasn't any!!!!! Fabulous
JP catered a party for us of about 40 adults and 20 kids and we had a great experience working with him - highly recommend his services! He was responsive and flexible during the planning phase, able to modify his gameplan day-of when our rooftop venue got rained out :( and prepped and served the food efficiently, beautifully and notably, without needing anything from us as hosts, letting us truly enjoy the party. On top of all that, all the guests loved the food itself and several have inquired about contacting JP for their own events. I'm happy to make those connections because JP is truly a great chef and a consummate professional!
Chef Nirva catered a small engagement for my staff of 15 for a brunch party. Nirva curated a special menu designed on everything I enjoyed in a brunch event. One of my favorites was the homemade French toast with a nice brioche bread and topped them off with fresh passion fruit and strawberry reduction. She also provided a fresh egg station, where she had a fresh egg station from fried and scrambled eggs, but I really enjoyed her omelette with spinach. Overall my experience was excellent from her attention to detail, presentation, and friendliness.
Anne handled the food service at two holiday dinners for us. She is professional, skilled, responsive and an absolute pleasure. We'll definitely use her again in the future and highly recommend her. Thank you for a job well done.
John has worked for me on multiple occasions from large 100 person cocktail parties to 10 person formal dinners. He is an exquisite chef, who can cook any kind of food. His careful sourcing of food makes him truly exceptional. He is a joy to work with, humble, funny and great to have around. I would and do hire him over and over again.

1. Re: customer serviceMylenium Feb 25, 2009 10:46 PM (in response to (chaletart))Sorry to hear. Unfortunately there is nothing anyone could do. Even the developers and documentation people that pop in here every now and then have no direct relation. Sales is an entirely different department. If it's really that important to you, you will have to stretch your credit card and buy the replacement, then compensate the debt with the refunds. I know it sucks, but it's the way it has to be. At best, you could probably do the order by phone, mentioning your other case and they may have a way to flag things and speed up processing, but I don#t think there's anything in it beyond that...
2. Re: customer serviceteetime17 Feb 26, 2009 4:57 AM (in response to (chaletart))chaletart, I had nearly the same experience except in my case my online order got flagged as "download media" and I wanted "box set". I called customer support to get them to change the order. CS told me there was no way to change the order, I would have to cancel the order, and place a new one. And I was told it would take up to two credit card billing cycles for my refund to show. During the course of this I talked with 3 or 4 different people at customer services and found them to be generally not very interested in providing customer service.
I ended up cancelling the order, and reordering instead from Videoguys. Their price was actually a little cheaper than Adobe's discounted price, and my experience with them has always been good.
To Adobe's credit, I did get the refund back on the card in about two weeks, not the two billing cycles previously "promised".

Full Name
Michael Bradley
Michael Bradley found guilty by the juries of one count of rape, one count of attempted rape and two counts of indecent assault the first on a girl under 12 and the second on a girl aged between 12 and 16.
The facts of the matter as I say have been canvassed over two trials and you were found guilty of indecent assault at the first trial with the jury failing to agree on other counts. At the re-trial you were found guilty of rape, attempted rape and a further count of indecent assault.
[3] The victims of these charges are sisters. They are the children of former family friends. The proven facts in each case are set out in the Crown's submissions.
[4] The sister who was the victim of the rape was only nine years old at the time. The evidence in my view suggests that there was only vulval penetration. I mention that because it is raised in counsel's submissions and I will deal with it later.
[5] The same weekend that you raped the younger sister you also committed the first of the indecent assaults on the older sister then aged under 12. Later you attempted to rape her following taking off part of her clothing during an incident in your own home which was described at trial. She was able to struggle and get away from you. You later endeavoured to indecently assault her when she was in the kitchen of her parents' home, that assault is perhaps of a technical nature.
[6] There was further evidence at trial relating to allegations of your making sexual suggestions to the children, showing the older child a pornographic photograph and an occasion where you appeared naked before her and offered her money to touch you.
[7] I have the benefit of a probation report. You are aged 57 years. You have no previous convictions except for one driving conviction which I simply put aside for the purposes of this sentencing.
[8] Your background and personal circumstances are set out in the report. You come from a good upbringing, you seem well educated and with a good work ethic. Your wife is estranged from you but she supports you in your present predicament. It was apparent at trial and the probation report mentions that you have strong religious beliefs which you continue to maintain. There is no evidence of substance abuse. You maintain your denial of the offending and accordingly and understandably you are not prepared to express any remorse.

One of the things we're working on here at Grunder Landscaping Company is trying to teach our leaders to praise their followers more. The praise needs to be specific and memorable. We don't want to heap so much praise on our team that it means nothing or gets diluted. We'll be talking more about this at GROW! 2013 in ten days. (Are you signed up? Why not?) In preparation for our discussion on the power of praise at GROW! 2103, here's a well-written piece from the research giant Gallup. Yes, it's a little heavy and full of some big words, but if you read it a couple times, I think the lesson is clear and will show you some ways to impact your bottom line with praise. So, read on… and, by all means, tell us what you think below.
Thanks; see you at GROW! 2013.

When the Minister Blows the Whistle: CEPA and the Ministerial ExceptionDecember 4, 2017 – Articles New Jersey Law Journal
The New Jersey Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA) is one of the strongest whistleblower laws in the country. Notwithstanding the law's strength, it remains unanswered whether CEPA claims against religious employers are barred by the ministerial exception. This common law doctrine holds that religious employers should be free from government regulation in making employment decisions concerning ministerial staff because such determinations necessarily have a theological underpinning. The doctrine accordingly bars claims by ministers under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII) and the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (LAD), for example. But how should courts address CEPA claims asserted by ministers who blow the whistle on their employers?
The New Jersey CEPA
The New Jersey Legislature enacted CEPA to "protect and encourage employees to report illegal or unethical workplace activities and to discourage public and private sector employers from engaging in such conduct." Dzwonar v. McDevitt, 177 N.J. 451, 461 (2003) (citing Abbamont v. Piscataway Twp. Bd. of Educ., 138 N.J. 405, 431 (1994)). The statute is viewed "as a reaffirmation of this State's repugnance to an employer's retaliation against an employee who has done nothing more than assert statutory rights and protections and a recognition by the Legislature of a preexisting common-law tort cause of action for such retaliatory discharge." Lepore v. National Tool & Mfg. Co., 115 N.J. 226, 228 (1989) (internal quotation omitted). No published case has yet tested the ministerial exception against these robust protections.
The Ministerial Exception
New Jersey courts have recognized that the First Amendment bars review of disputes over religious doctrine or ecclesiastical polity. See Elmora Hebrew Center v. Fishman, 125 N.J. 404, 413 (1991) (citing Watson v. Jones, 80 U.S. 679, 728–30 (1871); Chavis v. Rowe, 93 N.J. 103, 105 (1983)). In ruling on the ministerial exception,the court inPetruska v. Gannon Univ., 462 F.3d 294 (3d Cir. 2006) dismissed a university chaplain's gender discrimination and retaliation claims against a Catholic college under Title VII. In doing so, the court found that the ministerial exception "operates to bar any claim, the resolution of which would limit a religious institution's right to select who will perform particular spiritual functions." Petruska,462 F.3d at 307. The plaintiff's claims challenged the college's decision to restructure — a decision, the Third Circuit held, that was inherently based on "who would perform spiritual functions and about how those functions would be divided." Id. at 307-308. Applying Title VII would violate the Free Exercise Clause and, as such, the ministerial exception compelled dismissal.
In Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church & Sch. v. E.E.O.C., 132 S. Ct. 694 (2012), the U.S. Supreme Court adopted the ministerial exception for the first time. There, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission brought an action alleging retaliation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) on behalf of a "called teacher" (and a commissioned minister) at a Lutheran school, whose employment was terminated due to insubordination for refusing to comply with a school directive. Hosanna-Tabor, 132 S. Ct. at 700. The plaintiff's job duties were unquestionably ministerial — propounding the Church's message to lead others to "Christian maturity" and teach faithfully about the "Word of God, the Sacred Scriptures" as ordained by the Church. Id. at 708. In dismissing the lawsuit, the U.S. Supreme Court held that a "ministerial exception" grounded in the Establishment and Free Exercise Clauses of the First Amendment bars suits brought on behalf of ministers against their churches claiming termination in violation of employment discrimination laws. Id.at 707.
The holding was limited to challenges by a minister in "an employment discrimination suit." Id. at 710. Notably, the court held that "[w]e express no view on whether the exception bars other types of suits, including actions by employees alleging breach of contract or tortious conduct by their religious employers." Id. The rationale underlying the decision, however, may be extended to whistleblower claims, including those brought under CEPA.
Whistleblower Law and the Ministerial Exception
Only two courts — neither from New Jersey — have reported on the application of whistleblower statutes under the ministerial exception. Both are instructive.
In Archdiocese of Miami v. Minagorri, 954 So. 2d 640 (Fla. Ct. App. 2007), reh'g denied, cert. denied, 555 U.S. 1102 (2009), a principal of a Catholic school was terminated after complaining about being assaulted, battered and verbally threatened by her immediate supervisor. Plaintiff filed an action under the Florida Private Sector Whistleblower Act, which protects employees from retaliatory action for objecting to or refusing to participate in activities, policies or practices that are in violation of a law, rule, or regulation. Citing to a line of cases where courts dismissed, pursuant to the ministerial exception, claims under Title VII, the ADA and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as well as state common law and statutory anti-retaliation laws, the court saw "no reason why the ministerial exception should not be applied" to the statutory whistleblower claim. Id. at 643.
In Weishuhn v. Lansing Catholic Diocese, 287 Mich. App. 211, 213 (2010), a Catholic elementary school teacher filed an action against her employer under, inter alia, the Michigan Whistleblowers' Protection Act (WPA), after her employment contract was not renewed. Having already dismissed the plaintiff's state discrimination law claim under the Michigan Civil Rights Act (CRA), the court explained that both the WPA and CRA, while distinct statutes, "have as a common purpose the prevention of discrimination in employment on the basis of statutorily recognized facts rooted in public policy" — similar to the analogy between CEPA and LAD. Id. at 221-222. In dismissing the WPA claim, the court relied upon a series of decisions including Petruska and Minagorri that dismissed employment claims under the ministerial exception. As the court explained, "termination of a ministerial employee by a religious institution is an absolutely protected action under the First Amendment, regardless of the reason for doing so." Id. at 227 (citing Petruska, 462 F.3d at 307, 309).
The Ministerial Exception Should Trump CEPA
While no reported New Jersey decision has addressed this specific issue, the ministerial exception should similarly extend to ministers who blow the whistle on their religious employers under CEPA. Like discrimination laws, CEPA regulates the employment relationship and, therefore, courts cannot resolve CEPA claims without disturbing the inviolable divide between church and state. To do so would require courts to examine the rationale behind theologically based personnel decisions and thus unconstitutionally encroach upon religious doctrine. As the U.S. Supreme Court has explained, the ministerial exception "ensures that the authority to select and control who will minister the faithful — a matter 'strictly ecclesiastical' — is the church's alone." Hosanna-Tabor, 565 U.S. at 195 (citation omitted).
Notwithstanding its important policy functions, CEPA should not hold a special place vis-à-vis the ministerial exception simply due to the law's remedial purposes and robust provisions. LAD too has bold public policy goals including, as opined by the New Jersey Supreme Court, "to eradicate the cancer of discrimination." Jackson v. Concord Co., 54 N.J. 113, 124 (1969). Nonetheless, LAD, like its federal corollary Title VII, is also subject to the ministerial exception.
The ministerial exception does not relieve religious institutions from criminal liability or cooperating with law enforcement. Neither does the doctrine exempt employees of religious institutions from their obligations under the New Jersey mandatory reporting statute to report child abuse or neglect (even though the ministerial exception would likely trump the immunity from adverse employment actions afforded to those who make "good faith" allegations under the statute). N.J.S.A. § 9:6-8.13. As the court held in Weishun, "Our ruling does not reduce or immunize statutory reporters who are ministerial employees of religious institutions from the consequences if they fail to meet their mandatory reporting duties because they fear retaliation for which there would be no civil recourse." 287 Mich. App. at 225.
In short, the ministerial exception is narrow — it only applies to claims that challenge a religious institution's discretion as to who will lead the flock. See Petruska, 462 F.3d at 305. Constitutional rights must be respected, even in the face of noble legislative goals like those embodied in CEPA. See Weishuhn,287 Mich. App. at 225 ("Although we recognize the unfairness of the position, we lack the power to alter the legislative reporting requirements and the Legislature cannot trump the United States Constitution."). Such an interpretation is consistent with the way courts have applied the doctrine to other employment claims brought by persons charged with fulfilling an institution's theological mission, and should also be followed by courts in New Jersey.
Extending the ministerial exception to CEPA claims would consist of a two-part analysis. At the outset, courts should confirm that the claim at issue is actually brought under CEPA rather than a separate and independent cause of action exempt from the ministerial exception, such as breach of contract or tortious conduct. If a court determines that a CEPA claim has been asserted, courts should ask whether the whistleblower's duties constitute those of a "minister" (e.g., the performance of spiritual functions). Where it is determined that a minister has brought a claim under CEPA, courts in New Jersey, like those in sister jurisdictions, could then apply the ministerial exception doctrine to immunize religious employers from liability for any personnel actions taken against the complainant.

$900M in Byrne grants for drug enforcement (0)
Recently, U.S. Senator Mark Dayton of Minnesota helped to restore the Edward Byrne Memorial State and Local Law Enforcement Assistance Grant programs . The Byrne grants are used to fund state and local police efforts to combat methamphetamine and other drugs. A portion of the money will be used for the Methamphetamine Hot Spots Initiative that will target meth production and trafficking in Minnesota. It will also be used to prevent meth production by targeting meth cooks and lab, cleanup of meth labs, prosecution of meth cooks and dealers, and expanding treatment options for addicts.

About this project:
Dementia currently affects over 200,000 Michigan residents with over 500,000 Michigan family caregivers providing unpaid care. While dementia is one of Michigan's most expensive healthcare conditions, current systems of care are like a "crazy quilt"- disorganized and poorly connected. Front-line providers typically have no training in managing the illness. When patients get sick and require hospitalizations, they face a nightmare of emergency rooms and hospitals ill-equipped for their needs. Many hospitalizations are "potentially preventable"; better outpatient care could avert these costly and difficult experiences. Improving and coordinating dementia care could reduce costs, and make UM a model program in the state and nationally. Coalescing teams of dementia care researchers from several schools within UM (Medicine, Public Health and Social Work), we will use a lean thinking management process to discover root causes of the status quo, and devise and suggest potential viable and scalable solutions.

How Do The Supercharged Wins Work On Slotty Vegas Casino
Feb 10, 2017 NEWS
Just like the term "Supercharged" sounds, there must be something fascinating about the offer. Well, the concept of supercharged wins is exclusive only to Slotty Vegas Casino. But what exactly is it? For every winning round you make at this particular casino, there are additional funds added to this balance to give you the required boost to play further with confidence. Sounds great, isn't it? Let us take an overview of how it influences your progress!
Bending the Luck in Your Favor
If you haven't found much luck with the wagers placed recently in any of the games offered by the casino, the supercharged engine will take note of that, and bump up your rate to reward you in the next winning rounds, so as to compensate for the unfortunate losses in the past hands. This literally implies that your winnings are supercharged, negating the lost cause to a higher extent.
Elevation in Player Rank
The more loyal you are to the casino, more the chances of grabbing some massive wins in a few spins. As a member, everyone is entitled for supercharged winnings, but if you keep your faith in the system, you are probably going to benefit more in the long term. Be amazed to enter a world full of big wins!
Higher Rates for Selected Games
The games that you choose to play are taken into account for the purpose of offering Supercharged rates, higher in comparison to the others. For example, some of the slots may have the potential to earn you double-fold, given the high rate tagged on them, although the house edge can vary as well.
Promotions and Bonuses
Always keep an eye on weekly or monthly promotions, where you get a chance to grab Supercharged winnings with an increment of up to twice the default value. This could mean a difference between a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars, in case you keep hitting the golden luck.
Adding this lucrative feature to your winning rounds implies that you are entitled for a 30% extra payout on each of the games, as compared to other casinos. You get a chance to play 60% better paying slots, which is difficult to find anywhere else.
It is to be noted that both bonus and real money add towards the Supercharged winnings balance.

Mother's Day is May 8th – and that's coming up really quickly. If your mother is a runner and you want to get her the perfect gift on her special day, you have come to the right place. (Alternately, if you're a mom who runs, maybe you'll want to leave this blog open on your computer as a great big hint for your kids. It can't hurt!)
Some of our most popular items are medal and bib displays – and for good reason. Anyone who runs marathons or half marathons worked really hard for those medals and bibs and putting them in a box or a drawer is not going to cut it for the average runner. And that's why runners love our medal and bib displays, including Hooked On Medals Hangers, RunnersWALL, BibFOLIO, MedalART, medal hooks, and the ever popular BibFOLIO Plus, which combines the style and functionality of a BibFOLIO (a place to preserve and display race bibs) and a medal hanger (for all the medals that accompany the race bibs.) For the mother who has everything… except for the proper places to display her running medals and bibs, you cannot go wrong with any of our medal or bib displays.
Purchase the BibFOLIO Plus (shown above) here.
You can also choose any of our other medal and bib displays here.
For moms who love jewelry, we have many styles of of jewelry, including necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and individual charms that will be perfect for Mother's Day. One of my favorites is our Sterling silver necklace with three charms – our stick figure runner, a stamped mom charm, and a pearl. It's a stylish homage to mom being a runner, and how important running is to her life. It's a classic – and classy – way for mom to show how much she loves running… and a reminder she can wear every day that you also care about, and respect her running life.
The necklace shown above can be purchased here.
Our Mother's Day jewelry section can be found here – with many items to choose from.
If there is one thing runners can never have enough of, it's t-shirts. We have a variety of t-shirts that are designed for mothers to show their pride in both being a runner and being a mother. Two very popular styles are the "One Bad Mother Runner" t-shirt and the "Run Like a Mother" t-shirt. They're fun and stylish for any mom who likes to have a little fun with her running gear.
We all have our race and training rewards, and little pairs as well as running and wine. Lots of runners love to relax with a glass of wine after a run, a race, or a long day. Why not combine the two with a more traditional Mother's Day gift, such as wine glasses, but with a running theme? Our inspirational and poetic "MOTHER" wine glass is shown below, but we have multiple styles, including standard wine glasses and stemless wine glasses, as well as beer glasses and mugs.
You can purchase the poetic "MOTHER" wine glass here.Our whole collection of Mother's Day beer and wine glasses can be found here.
The most important thing to remember on Mother's Day is it's a day that's all about moms – and making sure that they're happy. It's about gifts (which can be purchased in our Mother's Day Shop), but it's also about spending quality time together, so… make sure you do that as well. Go for a run with your runner mom – even if you're not a runner yourself. Go through mom's race medals and bibs with her and listen to her stories of all the great races she's been in and how . And give her a great gift. Combined, not only will your mom have a wonderful Mother's Day, but you'll both have a day to remember for years to come. Happy Mother's Day to all the runner moms from Gone For a Run.

Happy Birthday Twin B
aka Brother Bacon
Have a super mega awesome day!
And get on Facebook already like a normal person.
aka Brother Bacon
Have a super mega awesome day!
And get on Facebook already like a normal person.
One year old today. I can't believe it.
I've finally put up some more photos on his site: https://picasaweb.google.com/twinc723/Harry#
Here is KissyFur's book on Amazon, available for pre-order.
It's so beautiful!!!
and Ben Bartelle aka FutureBen, and Jason Cipriani aka The Nautilus (not really), and all of Image Node!
Petit Mal, a long time project of Twin A and teh boyz, won an editor's choice award at the Maker Faire this past weekend!
It was also featured on NBC New York's online slideshow coverage (slide 4).
Hooray!!! Now both he and KissyFur are going to be soooooooo famo!!! (KissyFur has a trilogy of YA books coming out, the first one out next year, and they are going to be GIGANTIC. More on them as they happen.) And Harry and I will lead their entourage!
Or at least I did. I have an excuse this year, right? Now that I have a baby?
HAPPY BLOGAVERSARY!!!!! Five days ago was the five year anniversary of the creation of the Polenblog.
May the kvetches come freely and quickly, and the suckouts happen to everyone else.
And may the other Polenberg twins post more than once a year this year.
Here's a bunch of pictures of our little dumpling.
Our little non-stop-crying non-stop-eating will-not-go-to-sleep-at-night dumpling.
Well, PolenBaby #1, anyway.
Meet Harold Martin Polenberg, aka Harry, born at 7:03 pm on February 17th. He weighed eight pounds, five ounces, and was twenty and a half inches long. Baby is cute and cranky (just like his dad), Mom had to have a c section to get him out and had a rough go of it in general, but is feeling much better. (I would like to blog about the last 48 hours in general, but I think I should clear it with her first in case there's stuff I would want to say that she'd rather not have put on the blog.)
I am stating for the record that while I will likely put up a lot of pictures, there is no way in hell I am blogging about what kind of baby food is his favorite, or how many poops he takes. Not a fricking chance. This blog will continue to be me bitching about poker and work, and funny links, and awesome pictures of Hamilton, who has lately been doing this really cute thing where he sticks his head into a mug and makes a low sound just so it will echo in it - I will have to try and get it on camera. But I digress. I will be a doting father, but not a dolt, at least when it comes to blogging.
I've had about five hours of sleep over the last two nights, so I'm going to go pass out now.
Our last grandparent, Grandma Sylvia, died this afternoon. She was my mom's mom. She had not been in good shape for a long time, but she held on for a while. As Mom likes to say, she was a tough old bird.
Happy Anniversary Polenblog!!!!!!!!
Only four days late.

Product Details – DIY Secondary Glazing Kits By LinkLine.
Our DIY secondary glazing kits consist of three systems of DIY secondary glazing. These systems were designed and developed by Polycell Products ® and became the acknowledged market leader in the 1990´s. The kits are designed to be fitted by an average DIY enthusiast, giving a large saving against professional installation. All kits are supplied with detailed fitting instructions
Vertical Sliding Pane Kits
This is specially designed for traditional sash windows, but is ideal for any window where top or bottom access is required. As with the vertical sliding System the panes may be of equal or unequal size to match your window layout. The panes are held open when required by an ingenious system of ratchets which support the pane in any position. The vertical sliding system is suitable for windows up to 8 feet high (2.44m) or 4 feet (1.22m) wide but no single pane should exceed 12sq.ft (1.12 sq m) in area.
It is normally fitted to the inside of the window recess. If, however , you have no suitable recess, the system may also be fitted directly to the flat wooden surface of the window surround. In either case there should be a minimum flat area of at least 42mm (1 11/16" ) to accept the tracks.
Horizontal Sliding Pane Kits
The horizontal sliding system is available in either aluminium or quality uPVC kits.
The system makes up to give two panes which may be of equal or unequal size to match your existing window layout. The basic two-pane system may be extended to three or more panes by using one multi-pane kit for each additional pane. The panes slide smoothly in tracks which are fitted to the window recess. There should be a flat area of at least 42mm ( 1 11/16" ) all round to accept the tracks. The system is suitable for windows up to 8 feet (2.44m) wide by 6 feet (1.83m) high.
uPVC Kits
Aluminium Kits
Hinged Pane Kits
The hinged pane system makes up to give one hinged pane. It may be hinged from the side or from the top to match your window. The system fits directly to the flat wooden face of the window surround provided it is at least 32mm (1 1/4") wide to accept the fittings.
Where two hinged panes are used on the same window , allow at least 50 mm ( 2" ) where the panes meet.

Over 80 percent of the population will experience some form of back pain in their adulthood. There are a myriad of reasons that may account for this such as poor posture, herniated disks, and osteoarthritis to name a few.
Tight hamstrings, hip flexors, gluteus, and weak abdominal muscles often contribute to lower back pain.
I've tried a variety of programs to relieve muscle pain and tension (and to improve flexibility) such as Bob Cooley's resistance stretching, yoga and SMR (Self-Myofascial Release).
But I always come back to the gentle stretches, described below, when I need to take a tender approach to my lower back aches.
I like this set of stretches because they are performed in a supine (on the back) position which allows you to move from one stretch to another with ease.
For each exercise, hold for 30 seconds and gently release. Repeat 3 times for each leg and up to three times a day if your muscles are feeling really tight.
When these muscles are tight, you are more likely to experience back pain.
Supine Hip Flexor Stretch – The major muscles stretched are the hip flexors – iliopsoas (iliacus and psoas major) and rectus femoris.
Lying on your back, move knee as close to chest as possible while interlocking your fingers under thigh. Keep opposite leg on floor and gently press knee down.
Supine Hamstring Stretch – The major muscles stretched are the hamstrings.
Lying on your back, bend one knee while raising the other leg up towards the ceiling. Keep the raised knee as straight as possible without locking the knee. Use a strap or band to assist with stretch if the hamstrings are really tight.
When you are feeling pain-free, advance the stretch by keeping one leg straight on floor as your raise the opposite leg towards ceiling.
One leg Crossover/Lying Glute Stretch/Figure Four Stretch – The major muscles stretched are the gluteus midius and gluteus minimus.
Lying on your back, with knee bent bring ankle over thigh. This allows your hip to turn out or externally rotate and flex. Reach between the space between the thighs, interlock fingers and gently pull the legs toward torso.
When you are feeling pain-free, advance the stretch by reaching your hands to the opposite leg just below the knee and bring leg towards torso.
Spinal Twist/Croosover – The major muscles stretched are the obliques but several others are stretched as well (glutes, chest, shoulders and spine).
Lying on your back, pull knee towards torso. Place foot on top of opposite thigh. Place hand on knee and slowly turn torso and lower knee to floor. Extend opposite arm to the side at shoulder level. Press shoulder toward the floor.
Need more advice on low back stretches? Please leave a comment…

LIVERPOOL hotel developer and operator Signature Living has brought in Mike Mounfield to spearhead the group's growing food operations.
A former executive chef in commercial catering, he went into hospitality education and became an assistant principal at the City of Liverpool College.
Mounfield (pictured) was recognised by the Master Chefs of Great Britain and has worked in various locations including Malibu, Chicago and Prague supporting the development of those wanting to learn about food, cookery and the industry.
He has also consulted for large companies on kitchen design, work flow and menu design and worked with Cambridge University to reduce food costs at one of its largest colleges.
Following a period in Cumbria, where he was credited with being the creator of the Lakes Hotel School, Mounfield moved back to his home town of Runcorn in 2012 to continue his work in hospitality education.
During this time he developed L20 Hotel School, a concept that saw the industry's elite working alongside those studying food and food service, then moved on to work at the City of Liverpool College as an assistant principal and looked after Visitor Economy.
Mike's new role with Signature Living will see him oversee the group's food operation in Cardiff, Liverpool and Preston, and as other locations open, he will add these to his responsibilities.
"It only felt like a matter of time before I joined Signature Living," he said. "Working closely with the owners Katie and Lawrence and Managing Director David Hughes over recent years has made joining the company an easy decision.
"The role I have is not only exciting but very varied and every day feels like a new project is generated."
