Deepak Obhrai Calgary East, AB
Mr. Speaker, GlobalFest is a very popular summer event held in my riding of Calgary East. I am delighted to announce that this summer GlobalFest will celebrate its 10th anniversary.
GlobalFest celebrates Calgary's cultural diversity and artistic excellence, with six nights of multicultural festivities and spectacular international fireworks. Each night features a different country's display.
This event is unique in the world and offers an inclusive cultural experience meant to promote engagement and understanding in the community.
Every year, over 100,000 people attend this event. This year, GlobalFest will be held from August 16 to 26.
I want to congratulate all those who have been involved in bringing us this fantastic event in the past 10 years. I wish them the best of luck for GlobalFest 2012.
Finally, I invite all members of the House and all Canadians to visit Calgary this summer to experience GlobalFest.
Bill C-38
Statements by Members
2:05 p.m.
Wayne Marston Hamilton East—Stoney Creek, ON
Mr. Speaker, the current Conservative budget, Bill C-38, not only goes far beyond simple changes to tax and monetary measures but, due to the non-monetary parts of Bill C-38, it takes away the ability of MPs to effectively do the due diligence required by the institution of Parliament to ensure and protect the rights of Canadians.
Bill C-38 has dozens of changes in policy areas, including the environment, natural resources and human resources, which demands that these changes be reviewed by the other committees of Parliament responsible for these files.
The would bill repeal the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act. It would change the Fisheries Act. It would scrap the Office of the Inspector General at the Canadian Security Intelligence Service. In the shadowy world of CSIS, independent oversight is essential. It would remove the oversight of the Auditor General from a dozen government agency. Was that because the Auditor General released less than flattering reports on the government's record on fiscal mismanagement?
The bill should have been called the eliminating transparency and settling old scores act.
Alberta Beach Lions Club
Statements by Members
2:05 p.m.
Rob Merrifield Yellowhead, AB
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize an outstanding accomplishment of an organization in my riding of Yellowhead. T
his coming Saturday, June 9, in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, the Alberta Beach Lions Club will be receiving an award at the International Snowmobile Congress 2012.
This group's great work has been recognize by the Canadian Council of Snowmobile Organizations, which has bestowed upon it a national excellence award for outstanding promotion and development of snowmobiling in 2011-12. This promotion of snowmobiling by the club is done with the common goals in mind in respect to the environment, conservation, access, education and accountability.
In Canada, there are over 603,000 snowmobiles registered and the industry has $6 billion of economic impact annually.
I am very proud of the Alberta Beach Lions Club for its hard work in promoting activities that are not only fantastic and fun, but also ones that bring family, people and communities together.
Trinidad and Tobago
Statements by Members
2:05 p.m.
Hedy Fry Vancouver Centre, BC
Mr. Speaker, I stand to pay tribute to the land of my birth, Trinidad and Tobago, on its 50th anniversary of independence.
A small country of 1.3 million people, Trinidad and Tobago punches well above its weight in the Commonwealth and in the world.
Trinidad and Tobago is the original multicultural nation, its rich cultural diversity spawning renowned author like Vidya Naipaul and Nobel Prize poet Samuel Selvon; bringing to the world calypso, limbo and the only new musical instrument of the 20th century, the steel pan.
Through effective long-term management of its natural resources, this little island is now one of the wealthiest countries in the Americas. It was recently removed from the OECD's list of developing countries and named the third best place in the Commonwealth to raise a female child. I am one female grateful for the excellent opportunities Trinidad and Tobago gave me as a child of poor parents.
On behalf of the Liberal caucus, I congratulate my fellow Trinnies on their 50th anniversary and echo the last verse of the national anthem:
Here every creed and race find an equal place and may God bless our nation.

Dave Van Kesteren Chatham-Kent—Essex, ON
Mr. Speaker, last month, the foreign affairs committee travelled to Ukraine to study the state of democracy as well as the status of projects funded by the Canadian International Development Agency.
We were privileged to have Taras Zalusky from the Ukrainian Canadian Congress, Borys Potapenko from the League of Ukrainian Canadians and Bob Onyschuk from the Canadian Ukrainian Foundation accompany us and assist us with our task to help Ukraine move from a socialist system into a free market system, with free and fair elections.
In Canada there are 1.3 million Ukrainian Canadians.
Canada supports Ukrainians as they struggle to achieve the longing of their collective souls for a free Ukraine, free from servitude, free from corruption, free from the horrors of the Soviet past and free to live and prosper as an independent Ukraine.
This government stands with Ukrainian Canadians as they work in their churches, in their community organizations and as individuals in contact with relatives, to bring true democracy and freedom in Ukraine. We challenge the Ukrainian government to have a free and fair election next fall.
No Makeup Day
Statements by Members
2:05 p.m.
Rosane Doré Lefebvre Alfred-Pellan, QC
Mr. Speaker, I proudly rise in this House wearing no mascara or lipstick, and not even a hint of foundation. Today is the third edition of Quebec's No Makeup Day—the Journée sans maquillage.
On this day to raise awareness of self-esteem, all women are encouraged to leave their makeup cases behind for 24 hours and to go natural. The event encourages women to feel naturally beautiful in their own skin. This initiative started in 2010, when Canal Vie and ELLE Québec presented a documentary and special issue dealing with some women's obsession with makeup. The event has been gaining in popularity every year since then. High schools, artists and well-known Quebeckers have decided to participate.
Today I encourage all women, young and old, to go without a layer of makeup and to show off their natural beauty. I thank my colleagues who are participating in this event.
Plunkett Foundation
Statements by Members
2:10 p.m.
Ed Holder London West, ON
Mr. Speaker, I rise to pay special tribute to Steve Plunkett, a constituent who is the epitome of community leader. Steve is the president of the Plunkett Foundation, which provides support in areas of medical research and equipment. Through his profound generosity, Steve honours his parents, Dr. Earl Plunkett, an internationally renowned and respected physician, and his mother Corinne Plunkett. To date, the foundation has delivered $4 million to support critical and innovative health care initiatives.
Their flagship event and biggest fundraiser is the annual Fleetwood Country Cruize In, held this past weekend in London. In its eighth year, it is the largest outdoor car show in Canada, with 3,000 plus vintage cars, hot rods and custom specialty vehicles on display. In the past he has included four air shows in conjunction with the car show. He brings in world-class entertainers. All of this is hosted on his private estate, with two museums open to the public and incredible live concerts. They bring in the most famous cars and celebrities in the world, all in London, Ontario, all to support many local charities. Steve is the most passionate volunteer at the event.
I am proud of Steve and London is proud of Steve. I thank him for caring so deeply.
Canadian Human Rights Act
Statements by Members
June 6th, 2012 / 2:10 p.m.
Brian Storseth Westlock—St. Paul, AB
Mr. Speaker, tonight every member of the House has the opportunity to vote for freedom. For far too long every Canadian's fundamental right to freedom of expression has been needlessly suppressed by an overzealous bureaucracy armed with section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act, a vague and highly subjective law operating under the cloak of ambiguity. While section 13 may have been implemented with well-meaning intentions, its implications reach much further, chilling free speech and stifling the growth and development of free expression in our society. It is time to take back our right to freedom of expression as the bedrock upon which all other freedoms are built and repeal section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act.
It is time to take a stand for the rights of Canadians and our future generations. It is important that all members of the House take a moment to consider what we, as a free and democratic country, will lose if section 13 continues to be allowed to erode our freedom of speech.
Thank you Mr. Speaker and God bless.

Peter Stoffer Sackville—Eastern Shore, NS
Mr. Speaker, 68 years ago today, Canadians woke up to know that their heroes were landing on the beaches of Normandy with their allies the Americans, the Brits, the Poles, the Australians, the New Zealanders and many others, to fight against the terrible scourge of Nazism that was going across Europe.
Our heroes like Reid Myers of Fall River, Nova Scotia, landed on the beaches of Normandy. Murray Knowles operated a naval gun, and while he was doing that on June 6, his son was being born in Nova Scotia at the exact same time of the landing on Normandy. Harold Chuck Elliott, one of the heroes, landed as a paratrooper at midnight that night behind enemy lines.
These are three examples of the thousands of brave men and women who sacrificed everything for the freedom of Europe and the world.
On June 6, 68 years later, we stand in the House of Commons and thank them and honour them. We say "God bless their memories" to them and their families and God bless Canada. To a free Europe and to a free world, they truly are Canada's greatest heroes.
Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada
Statements by Members
2:15 p.m.
LaVar Payne Medicine Hat, AB
Mr. Speaker, yesterday the leader of the third party for the first time in quite a while stood in the House of Commons to talk about the economy. After seeing the job he did with Ontario's economy in the 1990s, it is no wonder the leader of the Liberal Party and former premier of Ontario has not spoken about the economy in quite some time.
While the leader opposite was the NDP premier of Ontario, he devastated the economy, raised taxes, ran record deficits, opposed trade, saw unemployment almost double. Clearly, the government will not be taking advice from the leader of the third party.
Our government has a proven track record of creating jobs and creating economic growth. Over 750,000 net new jobs have been created since July 2009.
We will continue on this path, and we call on the leader of the Liberal Party to support our positive plan. We also call on the leader of the Liberal Party to return the $40 million the Liberals owe Canadians.
Jordan's Principle
Statements by Members
2:15 p.m.
Carol Hughes Algoma—Manitoulin—Kapuskasing, ON
Mr. Speaker, many in the House are familiar with the story of Jordan River Anderson from Norway House Cree First Nation.
He was born with complex medical needs, but bureaucratic in-fighting about home care fees kept him hospitalized. Jordan died at the age of four, never having spent a day in his family home.
Maurina Beadle of Nova Scotia faces a similar jurisdictional battle as she seeks help in caring for her 15-year-old special needs son, Jeremy, but thanks to Jordan and the principle that bears his name, she is fighting back.
Along with Pictou Landing First Nation, she is taking the federal government to court for failure to implement Jordan's Principle, a child first private member's motion unanimously supported in the House in 2007. It calls on the federal government to pay medical bills first and determine who pays later.
Maurina Beadle's landmark court case set for next week could create the legal precedence to entrench Jordan's Principle in law so that sick kids are no longer caught in the middle of jurisdictional squabbles.
Today I salute Maurina in her quest for justice, not only for her son but for all first nation children.
Human Trafficking
Statements by Members
2:15 p.m.
Wai Young Vancouver South, BC
Mr. Speaker, human trafficking is a despicable crime that preys upon vulnerable women and children.
Our government has taken strong action on this file, such as supporting the private member's bill put forward by the member for Kildonan—St. Paul to implement mandatory minimum sentences for those who are convicted of child trafficking, as well as supporting the RCMP in their "Blue Blindfold" campaign to raise public awareness.
However, we can do more, which is why we committed during the last election to delivering significant resources to combat this terrible crime. We are working to ensure that young female immigrants who arrive in Canada alone are protected from illegitimate work. We are supporting organizations that provide assistance to victims and we are implementing a national action plan to combat human trafficking.
I am very pleased today to see the Minister of Public Safety announce a $25 million national action plan, which will help to finally put a stop to this terrible crime.
Canadians can count on our government to always put victims, especially those who are among our most vulnerable, first.

Bob Rae Toronto Centre, ON
Mr. Speaker, on the evening of June 5, 1944, the skies over the English Channel in northern France cleared enough to allow General Eisenhower to order the largest flotilla in human history to cross the channel and land on the beaches of Normandy.
They were young, courageous and even fearless. They came from all over. Canadians and the other allies knew that this attack was the only way to liberate Europe. June 6, 1944, is a day that will forever be etched in the memories of all those who know that democracy and freedom sometimes require extraordinary sacrifices.
Onto the beaches they came and through northern France, Belgium and Holland. A generation that fought for Canada fought and, in too many cases, died for freedom and a cause that was truly just. Then they came home and helped to build a country. They have been called our greatest generation. A grateful country pauses each year on this day to remember, to mourn, to celebrate and to remain ever vigilant and mindful of their courage and of their marvellous example.
Statements by Members
2:15 p.m.
Eve Adams Mississauga—Brampton South, ON
Mr. Speaker, today Canadians from coast to coast mark the 68th anniversary of D-Day. On this fateful day, allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy to begin the liberation of western Europe. Before dawn on June 6, 1944, 450 Canadians parachuted inland where they engaged, harassed and confused the enemy.
A few hours later, 15,000 Canadian soldiers landed and fought on Juno Beach.
By evening, the Canadians had made it further inland than any of their allies. At the end of D-Day allied forces had landed as many as 155,000 troops in France. The Atlantic wall had been breached. The victory on D-Day was not without cost. German defences were heavily fortified and inflicted significant casualties on the allied forces.
Today, we remember their sacrifices.
We remember the courage, valour and patriotism they displayed and the example they left for us to follow. Let us never forget.

Australian Woman Gets 16 Stitches After Being Caught in Drake-Chris Brown Crossfire
Details of the bar brawl between Chris Brown and Drake are still hazy. While initial reports said that Drake was leaving the club when the actual fighting started, the New York Daily News' sources claim the NYPD is focusing on Drake as the instigator.
But let's talk about Hollie C., the Australian woman who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. She's pointing fingers at both Brown and Drake.
The reason why I have 16 stitches on my head, on my face, is because of some stupid famous people having a fight over a girl.
The fight was allegedly over Rihanna — although more recent reports have contested that as well.
Regardless of what exactly happened that night, someone owes Hollie C. an apology and some financial compensation. Maybe a bottle of champagne, too, as long as it's delivered the proper way and not hurled across a crowded room.

Eviction can prove to be stressful time as the person may be facing the fear to lose their home. In case if the reason of eviction is failure to pay the rent, it can lead to severe consequences in the long run. The eviction stays on your credit report up to almost 7-10 years as per the policy of the state. It's a black mark at your record and can make things difficult when you have to rent apartments tampa fl in future or if you plan to get mortgage or any other loans. Different tactics are there that you can apply in the quest to remove your eviction from the records; however, it's not guaranteed to get results in your favor.
The first thing you can do to get eviction out of your rental records is paying off any balance from what was owed to the landlord. Do it if possible for you...Read More

|In response to Re: Leak from shower faucet
: I am having a problem following your description of the faucet and therefore the problem. I do not think epoxy will work, but you should probably call a plumber before you do something to make the unit unrepairable.
: : Greetings. My mobile home is a 1996 Northridge by Patriot with original water fixtures and pipes. I have a leak coming from my shower faucet. There is a knob for hot and a knob for cold on a horizontal fixture. The leak is coming from under the fixture and runs down the shower wall. The stream of water is about 4 inches wide, and is luke warm. The temperature of the leaking water leads me to believe that both the warm and cold water is leaking. My father-in-law took it apart and said he thinks that the leak is coming from the middle of the horizontal pipe from three or four holes where the cold and hot water mix. I don't know what my pipes are made of, but he says they are plastic. He also wants to put some epoxy glue on the pipe to stop the leak. I'm questioning whether I should let him glue it or if I should have the pipe replaced. Is the glue method a fix or a patch? If we choose to use the glue, will the pipe be at risk to eventually break?
This is a test

The shoe looks great with jeans, but has a thinner sole than some shoes (casual and sneakers), so pants hang a little past the bottom of the shoe. This is my only "complaint" if that is even a complaint; probably not.The leather has a very good color; not too dark and durable. After wearing for several weeks, they still look nice. I imagine they may scuff easily if scraped, as they leather is "raw" and not shiny/finished/protected like some leather shoes. We have sprayed them with the DSW water proofer/weather proofer for added protection and so far it seems to have kept them looking new."

Jury selection in Drabek-Chritton trial scheduled for Monday
Drabek-Chritton charged with child abuse, neglect, false imprisonment
MADISON, Wis. - A controversial and heavily-followed child neglect case will once again take center stage this week in Madison.
Jury selection is scheduled for Monday in the trial of Melinda Drabek-Chritton.
Drabek-Chritton is charged with child abuse, neglect, and false imprisonment.
She was arrested after her badly malnourished step-daughter was discovered last year, claiming that she was being held against her will in a basement.
Drabek-Chritton's trial, scheduled to last two weeks, should begin Tuesday.
Drabek-Chritton's husband, Chad Chritton, was found guilty last month of two counts of neglecting a child.
But the court also declared a mistrial on four other charges after the jury remained deadlocked.
If the District Attorney demands it, Chritton could be re-tried.
But the judge says a re-trial would have to wait after the trials of his wife and stepson, Josh, who faces sex assault charges in this case.

Comfy for the height
"I got these shoes and think they're really cute. The heel is a little loose, so I think I should have bought the 7 1/2 instead of the 8. It's hard to tell in the photo - but the straps really are a blue/grey. Great shoes that will go with jeans or dressier outfits."

By SEN. ORRIN HATCHUtah and Washington D.C.
Last night (Jan. 2), under the scrutiny of naysayers and the glare of the national spotlight, Coach Kyle Whittingham and the University of Utah proved they belong among the nation's elite college football teams. The Utes played with poise, passion and precision and made a mockery of those who said they could not match up against an outstanding Alabama team and were not worthy to play in a BCS game or of national championship consideration.
Utah beat Alabama more convincingly than Florida did, despite playing the Crimson Tide in what essentially amounted to a home game for the Southeast Conference powerhouse. Moreover, the Utes beat Oregon State, which defeated the University of Southern California, and Texas Christian University, which bested a very good Boise State squad. Impressive victories over Brigham Young University and Michigan further underscore just how good Utah is. Regardless of what happens in the Florida-Oklahoma game, the outcome will not change the fact that there is only one undefeated team in Division 1 college football: the University of Utah. For the second time in four years, the BCS-busting Utes have gone undefeated and yet uninvited to play for a national championship. That needs to change because the system is broken. The BCS is fatally flawed and, until it is fixed, will continue to produce a flawed college football champion.
The Mountain West and WAC conferences should receive an automatic bid to the BCS as does the SEC, Big 12, Big 10, Pac 10, Big East and ACC. The current system runs counter to the principal of fair competition and Americans notion of fair play. Unfortunately, Utah doesn't get a shot to play for the national championship this year. But the fact the Utes won't wear the official BCS crown won't change what Alabama's players and everyone who saw the Sugar Bowl know in their heads and in their hearts: The Utes are champions - and I could not be more proud of them. I join with Utahns and football fans across the nation in saluting the champion Utes and their coaching staff for an outstanding season.

Endless Grand Canyon
Photograph by Barry Tessman
The red of cactus blooms pops in a Grand Canyon valley. Cut by the Colorado River over millions of years, the Grand Canyon is considered one of the finest examples of arid-land erosion in the world. The immense canyon is 277 miles (446 kilometers) long and averages 4,000 feet (1,200 meters) deep, but it is only 15 miles (24 kilometers) across at its widest.
Ethiopian Highlands
Photograph by Michael Nichols
Sheer basalt towers rooted in flood-carved gorges mark the Simen Mountains in Ethiopia. This harsh landscape, sometimes called the African Alps, is the only home of the endangered gelada baboon. The monkeys find protection from jackals, hyenas, and leopards on the canyons' sheer cliffs.
Colorado River Bed
Photograph by Wilbur E. Garrett
Water rushes around rocks as the Colorado River continues to cut its way through the Grand Canyon. It takes two days by foot or mule to get to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back, and at least two weeks to complete the journey through the canyon by raft. In 1963 the Glen Canyon Dam was completed upstream of the Grand Canyon, radically changing the flow of the Colorado.
Rio Grande Border
Photograph by Bruce Dale
With Mexico on the left and the United States on the right, the Rio Grande forges a clear barrier between the two countries. On the U.S. side the river winds through the Santa Elena Canyon in Texas' Big Bend National Park. Towering 1,500-foot (460-meter) cliffs of solid limestone mark the canyon.
Arizona Slot Canyon
Photograph by Bill Hatcher
A slot canyon scores the Arizona desert, just one of many dotting the state's border with Utah. Slot canyons are comparatively short and unusually narrow canyons that can be several hundred feet deep. A region needs a special combination of rainfall and geographical features to make slot canyons possible. Rainwater and snowmelt cut and rubbed the red rock of this region for eons to form these slots.
Grand Canyon Waterfall
Photograph by Michael Nichols
A waterfall cascades down the sheer face of the Grand Canyon in Arizona. In addition to the mighty Colorado River running through the canyon, water—a vital resource in the arid Southwest—exists in the form of springs, streams, and seeps.

Grand Canyon of Yellowstone National Park
Photograph by Norbert Rosing
Rock formations jut from the floor of the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone National Park. Floods from melting glaciers helped carve this canyon, deepening it and removing most of its sand and gravel.
Canyon de Chelly, Arizona
Photograph by Bill Hatcher
Carved rock stretches as far as the eye can see in Canyon de Chelly National Monument in Arizona. Canyon de Chelly is unique among U.S. national parks—it is composed entirely of Navajo Tribal Trust Land, which remains home to a Navajo community. According to Navajo beliefs, a deity named Spider Woman lived on top of Spider Rock, the sandstone monolith in the foreground of this picture. She devoured children who misbehaved, and their bleached bones turned the top of Spider Rock white.

Mission Point Resort Reviews and Testimonials
"On behalf of my husband and myself and the whole family (all 22 of us), we'd like to thank you for your coordination of all of our events. The breakfast buffet was incredible and the view fantastic! Our dinner was delicious. We appreciate the chef accommodating our personal menu selections. Your attention-to-detail to any and all of our needs is greatly appreciated and made all of our activities more enjoyable. You certainly made us feel very welcome and very special. It was a pleasure meeting you. This was everyone's first visit to Mission Point Resort but certainly not our last."
Susan H.
"Our Family stayed at Mission Point Resort the 10, 11, 12 of October and we had a great time. The resort was very helpful in suggesting activities on the island and our room was great and the staff were excellent and courteous. The resort is also child friendly as my 4 year old had a great time in the pool and had many activities to participate in. I suggest this to any family with small children. We stayed in a family suite that consisted of 2 bedrooms and 4 adults and 1 child had plenty of room. I suggest on your next stay at Mackinac Island you too try Mission Point Resort."
Gloria C.
"My husband and I went to participate in Mackinaw's first "Oktoberfest" celebration, and knowing in advance that Michigan's weather is unpredictable, we went with our eyes open (along with warm clothing).Our stay was WONDERFUL to say the least!!!Along with Oktoberfest at Mission Point that weekend was (3) weddings, (2) family reunions and a pumpkin judging contest from the different departments. It was great how the "Point" involved the guests to be the judges of a fine display of talent and imagination.Our accommodations were ready on time for check-in, no problems checking-out, dinner and brunch both were delicious, but most of all, it was the attitude and approachability of the staff that made it an easy stay.Staff is friendly, responsive to your needs and pleasant. I would like to thank them the most, and Mission Point for being savvy enough to hire such a find group.Return??? you bet!!!"
Ken Y.
"We vacationed at Mission Point on 8/17 & 8/18/03. The hotel grounds were meticulously cared for with flowers everywhere. The resort is on the water and the views were fabulous! I was pleasantly surprised at the friendliness and attentiveness of their employees (especially "Kim" at the front desk and "Michael" in the Bistro Cafe). Also, don't miss dining at the outdoor Bistro. The food is fantastic!We have stayed at other hotels on the island and this is our favorite!We look forward to future visits at Mission Point!"
John L.
"I just returned from a conference on Mackinac Island and we stayed at Mission Point Resort. Friendly staff, Large, beautiful lobby, and very tasteful rooms. Beautiful views, short walk to all the shops and FUDGE. I would recommend the resort to any wanting to visit the Island. Can't wait to return!!!!"

^to watch video
Employees at the Anderson Municipal Business Center said they're seeing ghosts. They said the sightings started last month, with the latest sighting happening Thursday morning.
Security guard Rob Colbert said he was working late when he saw something move out of the corner of his eye.
"So I stopped talking and I went back, and checked it, and when I saw it I said, 'Huh,'" Colbert said.
He said he saw movement on the surveillance camera in the credit union office when no one was there.
"Just like a little ghostly figure, walking around," Colbert described.
The video shows a white blur, sometimes two, floating around the room to a chair, sitting down and disappearing.
IT Director Mark Cunningham, who oversees the surveillance systems for the Municipal Business Center, said he checked the cameras and found nothing out of order.
"Like I said, we really have no idea what it could be," Cunningham said.
The staff said they tried to come up with explanations for the blur. They tried closing the blinds, thinking it might have been a reflection from outside. But they said, it showed up again and looked even clearer than before.
They said they cleaned the camera lens and resealed the camera cover, but the image reappeared.
They said they see the image only in the credit union office, and it doesn't cause any trouble.
"If it is a ghost, maybe it's Casper the friendly ghost," said Frances Parham.
The staff is calling the image Claire, for clairvoyant.
Employees said they don't have an explanation for why a ghost would haunt the building.
The Municipal Center is brand new, and the building that used to occupy the lot was a service station

Women's Council Honors Long-time SLU Supporter
The Women's Council renamed its scholarship fund the "Women's Council Mary Bruemmer Endowed Scholarship Fund," in honor of Mary Bruemmer who has been with the University for more than 60 years.
|Mary Bruemmer speaks during the Women's Council at which the council board honored her by renaming their scholarship fund the "Women's Council Mary Bruemmer Endowed Scholarship Fund." Submitted photo
During last week's Women's Council meeting, the board announced it had renamed its scholarship fund the "Women's Council Mary Bruemmer Endowed Scholarship Fund," in honor of Mary Bruemmer, a long-time employee, supporter and friend to Saint Louis University.
"I am very humbled and grateful for this special honor," said Bruemmer, 92, who has been with the University for more than 60 years. "My many years with the Women's Council has provided me with many dear friends and acquaintances. And I am extremely pleased that a renewed focus has been placed on this scholarship and the assistance it continues to provide SLU students."
Bruemmer graduated from Saint Louis University in 1942. She returned to SLU in 1956 and received her master's degree in 1960. Since then she has remained at SLU, serving in a number of positions from dean of Students to full-time advancement volunteer.
Roisin Hughes, president of the Women's Council, said she is thrilled the council moved forward with this initiative and changed the scholarship to honor Bruemmer.
"The applause from the crowd confirmed the high regard and love these ladies have for Mary," Hughes said.
During the presentation at the meeting, Dottie Gorman, past council president from 2006-2008, made a few remarks about Bruemmer and her dedication to the Women's Council and Saint Louis University.
"In some way, each of us has had Mary Bruemmer put her arms around us, whether figuratively or literally speaking. Mary means so much to our council - she is our greeter, bylaws authority, provider of program ideas, historian and passionate champion," Gorman said.
"We all agree that the heart and soul of the Women's Council is Mary Bruemmer. For Mary, everything is always about SLU and the students."
At the end of the presentation, Bruemmer committed a personal gift to the scholarship fund, which led other members to also give to the fund.
The Women's Council was established in 1958 by Paul Reinert, S.J., as a way to keep women in the community informed of the programs and initiatives happening at Saint Louis University. At that time, Bruemmer was the director of Women's Housing and asked to be a part of the council.
In 1984, the council established the Women's Council Endowed Student Scholarship Fund. To date, the fund has provided assistance for many SLU students.
Bruemmer has been fortunate in her years at SLU to have constant interaction with students, she said. But through her involvement, she has also gotten a chance to get a deep insight into the financial struggles that many students have.
"We attract the most wonderful students from all over the country," she said. "But if we can not provide them with the assistance to attend this University, many of them cannot afford to become Billikens on their own."
To make a gift to the Women's Council Mary Bruemmer Endowed Scholarship Fund, go to giving.slu.edu or call 314-977-3475.

Hello my Friend.
I hope this note finds you and your loved ones well. The weather in the northeast is turning cooler. The leaves will soon turn into the most beautiful shades of red and yellow. I believe fall to be my favorite season of all.
How I miss my family in Norway , and the coast. Sometimes it feels like my throat closes. And my heart threatens to break. Thank God, I have my daughter, which helps me with the rare but searingly painful moments.
Wow, She just started her Junior year in Highschool and works her first Job. How did this happen?
Time flies, I remember her birth just like it was yesterday.

Well we are getting new uniforms complete with new shirt colors. We will be blue and our pants are going to be black. I am suprise they decided to get us a complete uniform. We all know that the budget is out of wack since we had the murder last year. It is still unsolved. This one was pretty grisly. The poor kid was just walking home from work and was nearly beheaded. We really haven't had to many murders out in Ashland. I hope they catch the person soon.

freezep thinks I am an imposter. I can guartee that I am not. I may not wear blue or carry a gun like you, but I still get called names. I still walk and can have people arrested it. (drunk people). I do not write tickets, but I do the job I was trained for. I also train new people for footpatrol
well they had a forenics expert come in from Erie Pa. to determin what kind of weapon was used in the murder. The poor kid was almost beheaded. It was pretty bad. We have never had anything like this before, but other agencies in our area are helping us with extra patrols on the bike path. I do hope they catch this person or persons soon.
the two people killed in 2004 was from someone they knew. I do hope they catch the person soon. The citizen have been warn not to let their children on the bike path alone. The killing happened less them 200 yards from one of our elem schools and middle school. Crime like that does not happen that often. We usually get break ins and shop lifting.
Well we had our first homicide in 7 years on sat. 19. This one the det. think is a stranger on stranger stabbing. The other two killings were in 2004

A last-minute try from Campese Ma'afu helped Cardiff Blues to a 34-18 bonus-point victory over Treviso at the Arms Park on Saturday.
A last-minute Campese Ma'afu score helped Cardiff Blues to a 34-18 bonus point win over Treviso on Saturday.
Returning full-back Dan Fish's jinking run to the line added to Rhys Patchell's early penalty, as the home side put in a strong first-half showing.
Although Kris Burton scored what turned out to be Treviso's only first-half points with a penalty on seventeen minutes, a Jamie Roberts try on his first start of the season put Cardiff 17-3 ahead.
Visiting forward Robert Barbieri was sin-binned soon after the restart, giving Patchell the chance to add to two conversions and first half penalty.
Treviso's best opportunity came with an interception by Giulio Toniolatti in his own 22, who raced on, but was caught by Patchell in good time. The ground made on that run led to a sustained period of Treviso pressure on the Cardiff line, as Tobias Botes was held up with the ball.
After returning to the fray, Barbieri finally made the breakthrough to squirm past Sam Warburton and Fish to start a comeback for the Italians, with Burton adding the extras to take his side into double figures.
The visitors kept the pressure going, and a Burton penalty brought Treviso back to within a converted try, as the game entered its closing stages.
But Jason Tovey was the hero of the hour, taking his opportunity to race through to score on his debut, giving Patchell the chance to convert once more, putting the Blues 27-13 ahead.
With ten minutes to play, Blues lock Bradley Davies was yellow carded for repeated offence.
Barbieri benefitted straight away, diving over for his second try of the night after his pack had taken him to the line. Burton failed to convert, so Cardiff still had some breathing space.
It was another debutant, Ma'afu whose driving score on the final play led to confirmation of the result, gaining the Blues their bonus-point win that moves them provisionally second.

Whitefish Bay girls swim
Paced by another school record from the 200 medley relay team of Foley Van Lieshout, Sarah Olver, Annelise Sprau and Hannah Pasterski, the overachieving Blue Dukes earned seventh in the WIAA State Division 2 meet in Madison on Friday.
"It was like the whole week went," veteran coach Jim Davis said. "They were so calm, so focused on the work, and then when they got to the pool, they just got down to business. I thought they had a chance to make a mark last week and they did."
The medley earned third and clipped close to two seconds off their sectional time with a 1:49.91 clocking as Bay scored 126 points for its spot as Shorewood won the state crown with 255.
Other state medal-winning efforts included Sprau, who was sixth in the 100 butterfly (season best 58.71), and the 400 free relay team of Sabrina Raber, Pasterski, Olver and Sprau, which was fourth (3:39.86).
Three other performances that narrowly missed medals were sevenths from Olver in the 100 breast stroke (1:07.73), Sprau in the 50 free (season best 24.74) and the 200 free relay team of Anna Lauko, Raber, Maggie Colton and Pasterski (two-second season best 1:40.79).
"The 200 free relay was crazy," Davis said. "They moved up from 13th to seventh (based on their sectional time)."
Davis was very happy for Raber, a senior, who qualified for state in an individual race for the first time, and who bettered her time in taking 13th in the 100 free (55.31). He also praised Olver for her effort in the breast stroke and noted that the 400 free relay's time was just great.
"I couldn't have asked for anything better," Davis said. "They swam tough right until the end and worked hard to hold things together. It was phenomenal. I was pleased for everyone."
Seniors on the state team included Sprau, Olver and Raber as the team finished with a solid total of 41 competitors.
Nicolet girls swim
The 200 free relay team of Christa Rumbaugh, Sarah Zelazoski, Gwen Worlton and Jaime Kloehn took more than a half-second off their week-old school record in earning 11th in the WIAA State Division 1 meet in Madison on Saturday.
"It was a pretty good effort all the way around," coach Dwight Davis said. "I was trying to tell them all week that they could try and break 1:40 and that kept them nice and busy."
And the team succeeded with a 1:39.98 clocking.
Rumbaugh had another good meet herself, just missing the school mark in the 50 free, in taking 14th (24.53) and then turning in her second-best time ever in claiming 10th in the 100 free (52.84).
"She wanted a little more," Davis said, "but those were solid performances for her."
Worlton, just a freshman, showed that she will be a force for the future when she took more than a second off her previous best time in earning 17th in the 100 breast stroke (1:08.83). She is now the third-fastest breast stroke in school history and Davis believes that she made the YMCA National meet cut for the event. All told, the Knights scored 22 points, good for 23rd in the D1 field as Waukesha South/Mukwonago repeated as champion with 279.
Davis was very happy with the season as the Knights broke numerous school records. He said the team had a good time in Madison, as about 20 other team members came along to support the state crew.
"It was just hard to move up (in meets this year, because everyone else got tough, too," he said.
The team finished with about 48 swimmers as key seniors included Rumbaugh, Elizabeth Carlton and Elizabeth Meister.
Brown Deer/University School girls swim
Kimberly Roos earned her second state medal in as many years as the junior claimed fifth in the 500 free in the WIAA State Division 2 meet in Madison on Friday.
Roos turned in a time of 5:11.88, which was virtually identical to her sectional time the week before. Shorewood's Ellen Stello won the race in 4:58.34.
Earlier in the meet, the junior Roos turned in a time of 1:59.09 in the 200 free, which was good for ninth. She had been sixth in that race last season.
Those two efforts gave the Falcons 23 points, good for 25th in the D2 field as Shorewood claimed its first title since 2003 with 255 points.
Homestead girls swim
Sophomore Alexandria Petersen broke the Highlanders school record in the 100 breast stroke for the second time in as many weeks with a clocking of 1:05.1, which was good for fifth in the WIAA Division 1 State Meet in Madison on Saturday.
Petersen, who was the only qualifier for the Highlanders, bettered her sectional time by 1.17 seconds as Arrowhead's Lindsay Adamski won in 1:01.98.
Her efforts gave Homestead 14 team points, good for 30th.

I may have mentioned that I studied abroad in Chile for six months. I may have also mentioned that Chilean food, overall, is lacking. My opinion may have been colored by the fact that one time I ordered Chinese food from a Chinese-owned restaurant and received ramen noodles in my Chow Mein. It may have also been colored by the fact that cheddar cheese was extremely difficult to find, and shelf-stable milk grosses me out (I paid for overpriced soy milk instead). I might have been freaked out by the amount of cream used in soups, lard in my bread, and the mass quantities of fried food. I might have also been utterly devastated by the Nestle-saturated ice cream and chocolate market to the point where I paid $8 for a pint of Häagen-Dazs and nearly cried when my mom sent me a handpicked pound of See's Candies. I might have been going through one of my pickier food phases...
There are two things about the Chilean culinary experience that still really stick out for me: empanadas and alcohol. The quintessential Chilean empanada is de pino, filled with chunks of seasoned beef, onions, olives, hard-boiled egg and raisins, and then baked. They are the true representation of Chilean heritage—empanadas being a Spanish creation, and pino being distinctive to the indigenous Mapuche people. My first taste of this comfort food was at the courtyard bodega located on the grounds of La Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile--a place I would return again and again, sitting down for an empanada lunch with my cohorts. It is this empanada I tried to recreate, and surprisingly enough, came close to duplicating (even if I still can't roll dough into a circle, making them a bit lopsided). And though the hard-boiled egg sounds odd, once baked, its creaminess contrasts nicely with the texture of the beef and the sweetness of the raisins.
While Chile is also well known for its oft-imbibed wine (including in a box—their boxed wine is good!), it is most memorable for its Pisco—a brandy-like liquor. Pisco taught me to like hard liquor. In fact, I'd go so far as to say it prepared me for the amount of drink needed to survive Law School. It wasn't uncommon to be served a large glass of pisco with a small bottle of Coke on the side. Nor was it uncommon to stumble over your tongue while you drunkenly told the cab driver that you lived at Echenique y Tobalaba (yeah, try saying that while drunk in your second language). But more often than not, pisco graced my lips in the form of the national drink, the Pisco Sour. So in addition to making a first attempt at empandas de pino, I decided to also make a first attempt at creating this cocktail. Trust me when I say that, due to some home construction, the cocktail was much needed.

2 medium brown onions, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. paprika
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp. black pepper
salt to taste
vegetable or canola oil
10 olives, diced
1/4 cup raisins
3 Tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup of milk
1 water
1. Dice up your meat into small pieces. You can use pretty much any cut of beef (I used tri-tip), and if need be, a lean ground beef will work.
2. Heat oil in a pan and add onions. Saute until translucent. Add garlic, beef and seasonings.
3. Cook until beef is browned on all sides. Add salt to taste. Remove and let cool to room temperature.
|Quintessential Me: makeshift onion goggles--put on glasses,
wrap saran around to ears, & seal out onion vapors.
5. Gradually add water until dough comes together and is not too sticky to touch.
6. Knead on a floured surface for a few minutes. Cover and set aside for 20 minutes. In the meantime, boil your eggs and preheat the oven to 350F.
7. When dough is ready, separate into 12 balls. Roll each ball out into a disc about 6"-7" wide, and 1/4" thick.
8. Add olives & raisins to filling. Then place a heaping tablespoon of the filling on the bottom half of the disc, leaving room around the edges. Add a few pieces of egg and then seal the empanada. Pinch well, or use a fork, and then fold up the sides.
9. Repeat with all of the filling and dough balls, being careful to seal the empanadas extremely well.
10. Brush each empanada with an egg wash (1 egg + 1 Tbsp. water), then poke a hole into the top of each one.
11. Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm.
Also, I'd like to introduce you to my mascot, Tort(e). Tort(e) is a potholder puppet with a terrycloth tongue and button eyes. Tort(e) enjoys wearing dog hair, keeping my hand from burning, and is getting ready to host a cooking video for yours truly.

Great Walking shoes
"These Ryka shoes were great for walking. I put them on the very first day and walked an hour with no problems or pain. They fit perfect the first time I wore them. I even went back to buy a different color to keep at work. I would recommend them for any walker who wants a comfortable sturdy shoe that have a reasonable price."

Love the Style - Hate the Fit
"I have a love/hate relationship with this shoe...LOVE: The style and color of the shoe. Never seen a walking shoe with this particular combination of colors: Brown, Taupe, Cream and Teal. Its simple lines and low-key vibe really appealed to me. Also, the lightness of the shoe is remarkable. It doesn't feel like so many other of those plodding/clodding athletic shoes. It is nimble and light. I love that, too!But...HATE: The fit of the shoe...over time! It just seems like the longer I have worn the shoe, the more uncomfortable it has become. I am a first-time buyer of the Ryka brand, and so am unfamiliar with any vagaries/tips/tricks connected to the brand's fit. I just tried it on in the store in my usual size for walkers. It seemed to work, at least while I was test-walking in the aisles, but since I've brought the shoe home and have worn it regularly now, I have noticed that my toes are frequently jammed together too much in the toe box, even when I loosen the laces a bit to give them some more room. And all that jamming causes some weird things to happen with my gait...so by the end of the day, I feel like I wanna rip these things off my sore feet and throw them at the wall!I did say love/hate, right? ;-)Anyway, my recommendation would be to try at least a half-size larger with this shoe (in proper walking shoe socks, not the disposable nylon footies supplied at the store) than you would normally wear and be sure to save your receipt. (Wish I had done both...) Because if these things are as cruel to your feet as they have been to mine, you may opt to do the sensible thing and simply give up and return them."

Horrible and Uncomfortable
"This was my first time purchasing a Ryka product, but while browsing the store I found the shoe looked nice and felt comfortable IN STORE. However, upon walking anywhere between 1-5 miles in these shoes on three separate occasions, my feet had horrible blisters and were burning and stinging in pain. I had originally bought these shoes with the intention that I would be walking in them around my neighborhood to lose weight for my upcoming wedding, however I can not even walk around the block without coming home and changing into sandals. I will not ever purchase a Ryka product again as I am completely dissatisfied and have wasted my money on this product. NOT RECOMMENDED!!"

Falling apart
"These are only 1 month old and already falling apart. I wear them 5 days a week for work, just walking normally and the stitching on the toe is coming out."
