Emanuel talked directly to gov: source DEEPER ROLE? | Pushed Jarrett for Senate seat
December 18, 2008
BY NATASHA KORECKI Federal Courts Reporter email@example.com
President-elect Barack Obama's incoming chief of staff Rahm Emanuel had a deeper involvement in pressing for a U.S. Senate seat appointment than previously reported, the Sun-Times has learned. Emanuel had direct discussions about the seat with Gov. Blagojevich, who is is accused of trying to auction it to the highest bidder.
Emanuel talked with the governor in the days following the Nov. 4 election and pressed early on for the appointment of Valerie Jarrett to the post, sources with knowledge of the conversations told the Sun-Times. There was no indication from sources that Emanuel brokered a deal, however.
A source with the Obama camp strongly denied Emanuel spoke with the governor directly about the seat, saying Emanuel only spoke with Blagojevich once recently to say he was taking the chief of staff post.
But sources with knowledge of the investigation said Blagojevich told his aides about the calls with Emanuel and sometimes gave them directions afterward. Sources said that early on, Emanuel pushed for the appointment of Jarrett to the governor and his staff and asked that it be done by a certain date.
At least some of the conversations between Emanuel and Blagojevich were likely caught on tape, sources said.
After Jarrett took herself out of the running in mid-November, Emanuel submitted a list of suitable names to the governor's camp that didn't include her name.
Emanuel, who has refused to comment on the issue, is not accused of wrongdoing.
In portions of conversations released in a criminal complaint against Blagojevich, he can be heard complaining that Obama wouldn't give anything in return for a Jarrett appointment.
Contributing: Fran Spielman
The stupidity of the Obama team on this is staggering. Why didn't they just look at the reporter and say "Of course we are working together on who will take my seat, it's important because I want someone I can work with in Congress, and I wanted my opinion heard." If he had come out and said that then just throw the idiot who talked money with him under the bus while claiming ignorance and it's over with.
I agree. Obama is playing this really badly, unless there is more to the story.
From what we've heard so far, Blago was complaining because he wasn't getting any firm promise of anything from Obama. Which means Obama is in the clear. So why does he act like he's guilty?
This is similar to the birth certificate fiasco. It seems to be a personality trait; he insists on acting guilty.
I don't know if it's Blagojevich who is leaking. Maybe it's someone in the US Attorney's office who doesn't like the way that Fitzgerald is whitewashing Obama.
IMHO, I bet 'Bama's '04 senate seat was bought and paid for....this, afterall, is the Chicago Way...
Unless they've got something to hide -- or think they do.
The best case for Obama's team is that they're clean, but didn't want to leave even a perception of wrong-doing with a governor who (by then) they should have known was dirty. But as you point out, that's easily disposed of, simply by telling the truth.
It think that this option is no longer on the table, as the Sun Times has pretty much shown that Obama's team is lying about this.
Which pretty much leaves the CYA angle. The question remains -- whose A is being C'd?
I can see Rahm Emanuel making a side-deal on the appointment, for example, and he would therefore have a good motive for hiding his own involvement. That wouldn't necessarily implicate Obama -- perhaps Rahm really was trying to pad his own nest.
True or not, I'm guessing that Obama's team will probably try this tactic next -- they've demonstrated a great willingness to throw anybody under the bus who makes them look bad.
I think, however, that if Rahm was not acting on his own, Obama's team will probably fail on this count, too. Rahm Emanuel would have serious incentive to sing. And Rezko and Blago already have incentive to sing.
In these days of financial uncertainty, I believe that Popcorn is the only rational investment. Many, many folks will be buying it as this case continues to unfold.
Another "Deep Throat" - worked once, could work again.
Ab, you could not be more right. I have said this all along. Just admit your role and move on. It is the same with the birth certificate. Come out with it and say here is my birth certificate, now leave me alone.
I agree complete, this is going to be so interesting to watch unfold and to see which theory pans out. I am going long on butter myself, corn is down now and margarine just isn't as good as the real thing on popcorn.
Here's hoping Jamie Gorelick, David Kendall, Sydney Blumenthal and all those other jerks find employment in this administration.
If anybody on earth knew who originally hired Craig Livingstone, we could track him down for a gig too.
And just as importantly . . . they simply can't remember everything they've discussed with him -- even normal, innocuos things -- on the phone during that time.
I still hold out some hope that one or more of these characters (Emanuel or Blagoyabitch in particular) can be heard uttering all sorts of terms like "n!gger" on these tapes.
Blame the weed. It often inspires paranoia.
I think you are on to something there.
I'm not a fan of Rahm Emanuel by any stretch of the imagination, but I doubt he was speaking to the gov without Obama's input. The question is, what did Emanuel offer to obtain his favorite's placement in office?
It's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. I don't see Emanuel or more importantly Obama being safe by any means.
Actually, the explanation is probably much simpler than that.
It's not uncommon for folks who know (or think they know) really juicy information to want other people to know that they know. I'd bet there's a real rush in knowing that your inside information has made national news.
In Obama's mind, it only adds to the myth of the man. To me, he exhibits classic signs of narcissistic personality disorder.
Not directly. However, that would taint Obama big time. If he really did not know, he is an obvious idiot and not in control. If he really did know, he is a corrupt liar. People will need to choose which of those to believe. Not good for Obama.
I believe Obama already has hired her, see Sec of State.
Sculimbrene is the one witness whose testimony is backed by unimpeachable documentary evidence, which irrefutably links First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton to the hiring of Filegate's central character, D. Craig Livingstone, once head of White House Security. Her Livingstone connection ties Mrs. Clinton to one of the worst abuses of presidential power in the history of the republic.
In FBI parlance the key evidence is called an "insert"; a short memo thought to be of no consequence when Sculimbrene wrote it in March 1993 as part of his background investigation into Mr. Livingstone, then a new White House hire. At the time, Agent Sculimbrene was so highly trusted that he was the only member of the FBI's White House detail with a special SCI security clearance (Secret Compartmentalized Information), which allowed him access to highly classified material.
The highly trusted agent wrote the following, which became part of the then-obscure Livingstone's own FBI background file:
"BERNARD NUSSBAUM, Counsel to the President, advised that he had known the appointee for the period of time that he has been employed in the new administration. He had come highly recommended to him by HILLARY CLINTON, who has known his mother for a longer period of time...."
Of course, though, I knew she (or one of her close minions) hired him. I was being facetious.
Some wonderous media we have though, they completely accepted the concept that nobody remembered who hired Livingstone, including even Livingstone himself!
Imagine such a ludicrous lie being accepted from Sarah Palin, George Bush, Dick Cheney, etc.
After the "money for senate seat" story broke, Obama said they had not negotiated with Blago about filling the seat. Of course they had, as admitted by David Axlerod. There is actually nothing wrong with that (unless $$ was discussed), but...
Obama's denial (and contradiction of Axlerod's statement)shows "guilty knowledge." He and his people knew that Blago was selling the seat, but did not report it as they are ethically obliged to do.
Now they will "tell the truth slowly" (a la Clinton) in hopes that the story gets blown out of proportion for a long time and then the truth becomes a letdown.
It's merely a story about Obama's lack of ethics. It's not a surprise to me (a native Chicagoan). However, he tarnished the image that the MSM and Obamabots have deluded themselves into believing.
Bingo. If Obama had come right out and admitted that they had had dozens of contacts with Blago about filling the seat (which would be truthful), then the next questions would be exactly what was said in those conversations, why did you continue to be in contact with Blago about the seat when it was clear he was selling it, and why didn't you go directly to the FBI and report what you knew?
Obama answering truthfully that there many contacts and so what, doesn't close the door on the issue. Instead, it just starts the process of opening more and more doors.
The additional doors will be opened in time, but Obama is not going to do ANYTHING to help things along. At this point, a slow drip, drip, still harmful, is much preferable to a deluge. You can build a levee high enough over time, but you can't build one overnight.
The important thing is for Obama to get a win early over the media. That sets the tone for the next few years. If he can prove he is Teflon, the media won't press him too much.
Reporters don't want to be called into the editor's office for asking too many questions. You don't want to waste a lot of time on a story that will have to be spiked.
Recall during the House Gov. Ops hearings, Livingstone going round and round with an answer to the direct question, "WHO hired you?" It was stupefying!
In the end, it was, with little credibility, laid at the feet of the "breathy" Cheryl Mills, though as pointed out, the only valid testimony was the documented evidence of the FBI agent.
The leaking spin from both sides is starting to make me dizzy...lol.
Yeah .. me, too. I'm wondering how they're getting
all this inside info, allegedly.

Propellantless Space Drive Called "EmDrive" Made in China
Tiffany Kaiser

Sender E-mail
(Source: emdrive.com)
It's a a propellantless microwave thruster that defies Newton's laws of motion
Chinese scientists have taken on a heavily criticized space drive idea that could one day launch satellites, deep space probes and even flying cars.
The research team hails from Northwestern Polytechnic University in Xi'an, and was led by Yang Juan. What they developed was a propellantless microwave thruster called EmDrive, which is a controversial idea because it goes against Newton's laws of motion -- and many have claimed to create a "propellantless" thruster before and failed.
Newton's laws of motion are all based on the idea that firing propellant out of the back at a high speed will push a craft forward. While
solar cells offer infinite power
, thrust is limited by propellant. Many have tried to get around this, but several scams have made this particular field a joke in the scientific world.
While space drives tend to rely on Newton's laws of motion, the EmDrive is a closed, conical container that has a net thrust toward the wide end when filled with resonating microwaves. This goes against Newton, who said that no closed system could have a net thrust. However, EmDrive works because the microwaves have a group velocity (the speed of a collection of electromagnetic waves) that is greater in one direction than the other -- which is where Albert Einstein's theory of relativity comes in.
British engineer Robert Shaywer, who began looking at the concept of a propellantless thruster when he opened his own company called Satellite Propulsion Research in 2001, is the original creator of the EmDrive. He made demonstration thrusters to prove it could be done, and even made sure the test results were accurate (meaning, the results weren't affected by friction, ionization, air currents, electromagnetic effects or interference). The first, made in 2003, had a thrust of 16 mN. This was enough to show it could be done.
However, he received a ton of criticism for his idea and was ridiculed in his own country. But the Chinese team at Northwestern Polytechnic University believed in his research and took the project head on to author the latest study, "Net Thrust Measurement of Propellantless Microwave Thruster."
The Northwestern Polytechnic University team was able to create the EmDrive with 720 mN of thrust with a couple of kilowatts of power.
So what purpose does EmDrive have? It could halve launch costs of satellites because as much as half
the launch weight
of these objects are attributed to propellant.
Shawyer is even working on a superconducting thruster that could be ready as soon as 2016. It would boost the Q value of the cavity, which determines the amount of thrust produced. He said it could be boosted by a factor of several thousand, possibly equating to a tonne of thrust per kilowatt of power.
"The whole principle [of censorship] is wrong. It's like demanding that grown men live on skim milk because the baby can't have steak." -- Robert Heinlein

My New Favorite
"I am ordering a 2nd pair of these because I love them so much that I want a new pair for next summer! I am on and off my feet 8-10 hours a day at work and they are perfect for dresses or to wear with black slacks. The leather is soft and supple, the embellishment looks classy, and I am getting lots of compliments. I love wearing a low stacked heel because they are stable and a little more dressy than some sandals, I am 5'8" so I don't like anything too high. I didn't have to break them at all, they provided all day comfort from day 1!"

After finishing tied for first place in the Castle Valley Association league, the Canyon View Cougars lost the coin toss and were seeded second.
In the first round, the Cougars played arch-rival San Rafael who came out tough and played outstanding defense for the entire set. Canyon View won a hard fought first game 25-17 behind excellent serving of Haylie Hansen and Camille Fehlberg. In game two, the Bulldogs came back and won 25-23. Canyon View then reasserted itself in game three and four behind the hitting of Rachel Rasmussen and Brandie Wilson.
In round two, the Cougars took on Mont Harmon who was the first seed. They had a very talented team who played a lot of club ball this summer. In our first meeting, they swept us in three straight which caused us to work twice as hard. This time CV swept them 25-20 behind the superb passing ad Lacey Erickson and the hitting of Meagan Pearson.
I would like to thank these young ladies for their hard work. They made it look easy as they really played as a team. Camille Fehlberg was our defensive star being everywhere on the floor. Haylie Hansen is our best offensive players, she can do it all, serve, set pass, spike and dunk with prowess. Rachel Rasmussen and Meagan Pearson were our kill leaders and Brandee Wilson was in my opinion our MVP in the tournament. Our bench was made up of Shianne Nicholes and Britlee Ward who made significant contributions in almost every game. I would also like to thank my assistant coach Misti Jensen Bagley who is a fundamental specialist.

Great Pedal

About Me Avid Cyclist
I had been using Time iClic pedals, which had a much narrower profile. Even though I was using carbon fiber soled bike shoes, there was persistent pressure on the left side of the bottom of the foot, causing me constant pain. This is much better with the Shimano Dura-Ace pedal.

Word processing is certainly not new to computers. In the 1990s, it was one of the biggest reasons people bought computers. Today, word processing continues to be one of the biggest reasons many people own computers. For many, OpenOffice.org Writer is an excellent word processing solution.
Like Microsoft Word, OpenOffice.org Writer is part of an office productivity software suite. Unlike Word, however, Writer is freely available (for commercial and non-commercial use) and, consequently, can be downloaded from the OpenOffice.org web site.
Writer includes many features, some of which are fairly common, and others that are unique.
Like many word processors, Writer has a built-in spell checker and thesaurus. It also contains an "AutoSpellcheck" feature, which highlights mis-spelled words on the page with a red, wavy underline, so they can be easily spotted and corrected.
Writer also comes equipped with a customizable "AutoCorrect" system, which attempts to repair spelling, punctuation and typographic errors on-the-fly. For example, many people commonly mis-spell "the" as "teh." AutoCorrect will detect the mis-spelling as it is typed and instantly correct it.
AutoCorrect also provides a word completion feature, and will make suggestions as the word is typed. To accept the suggestion, the user simply presses Enter. If the suggestion is wrong or undesired, the user simply continues typing and ignores the suggestion.
Like any modern word processor, Writer also supports tables, hyperlinks (web addresses), lists, indents, word wrap (around graphics, frames (objects that can contain other objects), forms, etc.
Many types of graphics can be imported into Writer. Graphics can be linked (so the location of the graphic on your computer is remembered) or embedded (a copy of the graphic is stored inside the document). Also available are the word wrap options, which allow text to flow dynamically around the graphic.
One of Writer's great features is its stylist, which can be displayed (or hidden) by pressing F11, or using the stylist icon (the first icon on the formatting tool bar). Various types of styles are supported: character, paragraph, frame, page and list. Any property that can be manually applied can be set in a style.
Styles come in handy when the same formatting needs to be applied to multiple elements. For example, suppose there are 12 headings in a document, and each one needs to have a font size of 16, bold and underlined, and the font face "Amerigo BT." Without the stylist, the font formatting would have to be repeated on every element. Instead, by applying a style that contains all the proper formatting information, all the formatting is done instantly.
Writer also sports a PDF export feature, which makes a copy of the current document in PDF format. The PDF can then be opened in Adobe's Acrobat Reader or any other program that can read PDF files.
Although Writer boasts good interoperability with Microsoft Office file formats, those that frequently exchange files with Microsoft Office users may want to change Writer's default file format to "Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP." This will ensure that all new files are automatically saved as Microsoft Office files. This option can be found by clicking on "Tools" and then "Options." Once the options dialog appears, expand the "Load/Save" section and select "General." The selections on the bottom will allow you to set those preferences.
A simple overview such as this won't adequately describe what the program is capable of. Download it, and see for yourself what this word processor will do.

Living with Yoga
I went to my first yoga class in eight weeks last night, and remembered that we are broadcasting our program with Seane Corn this week, which we originally produced about a year ago. At that time I was in the local Bikram yoga studio three or four times a week, sweating and smiling at the instructor's injunctions to "struggle harder!" I love the arduous athleticism of Bikram practice.
But I had foot surgery over the summer, and am still nursing it eight weeks later, my right foot three sizes larger than the left. It's healing nicely, but it takes a long time, and the Bikram heat just isn't the right thing for a swollen, healing appendage. That has meant no yoga for the first few weeks, and then being restricted to some basic stretches and breathing execises at home. I miss the community, the sense of building on other peoples' energy and strength that I get in group practice, and I was nourished to join the teacher and two others holding long, slow, challenging poses in an extended floor series last night.
During my hiatus, people told me to do any yoga I could manage — even if it was just mindful breathing at my desk at work, or listening to recordings of asanas while lying still on my mat. One tool I turned to was this video of Seane Corn, which I watched in my early recovery, when I could barely hobble to the kitchen.
Corn reminds us that the yoga we do on the mat is only part of the story, and that yoga is not only for beautiful, young bodies. That's a message also underscored by our program with Matthew Sanford, who was rendered a paraplegic at the age of 13 after a car accident. His unique experience of the mind-body connection, and the lessons about inhabiting his entire body, is related in Waking: A Memoir of Trauma and Transcendence.
Even a temporary disability like the one I am now impatiently enduring has an effect on one's sense of self, of one's personal power, and one's vulnerability. The "spiritual technology" of yoga, these teachers help us understand, gives us a way to be more fully ourselves, whatever our physical strength or limitation might be.
What's your practice? How do you bring body, mind, and spirit into alignment?

This traditional cheese from the Veneto is wrapped with grape skins before they are completely crushed giving the cheese a fruity wine flavor all the way through. Before it's wrapped, the cheese is immersed in a grape skin mash for up to a month which enables it's bold wine flavor yet keeping a yellow semi-soft texture for the cheese inside. Notice the skin which is encrusted with Italian grape leaves. Cut fresh to order, sold in a one pound piece. Imported from Italy. Delicious.

Skip to comments.(Illinois)Federal appeals court tosses state ban on carrying concealed weapons
Posted on 12/11/2012 10:40:49 AM PST by Lockbar
In a huge win for gun-rights groups, a federal appeals court in Chicago on Tuesday tossed the states ban on carrying concealed weapons and gave Illinois Legislature 180 days to craft a law legalizing concealed carry.
The debate is over. We won. And there will be a statewide carry law in 2013, said Todd Vandermyde, a lobbyist for the National Rifle Association.
(Excerpt) Read more at suntimes.com ...
How about NYC?
Im glad for your enthusiasm but I suspect the fight is only just begun. There's nothing to prevent the lefties from writing a may issue law. This effectively maintains status quo.
I live in Will county but commute to the hellhole by the lake mon - fri to work. Was out for a walk during lunch break when I heard the news on wls talk radio. Now that news put some pep in my step!!!
Agreed. The best is "Constitutional Carry," as we have in AZ: No license required for concealed carry (The law in AZ, AK and VT, of all places). Second best is "Shall Issue," which IL will probably be one of the last in the nation to pass. There will be "May Issue" after the dust settles, and the gang-bangers will be comfortable in their cribs in Chicago.
But they better not take their crap to a more rural county, because "May Issue" permits tend to flow more freely there.
LOL!!! In my case they don't have to wonder, I AM carrying and have been for years now when I come I to the city. As I tell my wife, I'd ather be in jail explaining why I had to defend myself than having her ID my body at the morgue.
I don't want to get too optimistic but it seems while DC is content to wrap itself in additional layers of statism, there are local and state issues/elections that would seem to to represent a reversal of the death-by-a-thousand-cuts legislation passed over time.
In Missouri the legislature passed Concealed Carry over the governor's veto in September of 2003.
Before permits were issued a St Louis judge issued a restraining order. In March of 2004 The Missouri Supreme Court threw out the restraining order and permits started to be issued with the exception of St Louis, Kansas City and perhaps one or two other anti-gun cities
St Louis and Kansas found a technicality about funding and held up issuing permits for an additional 14 months.
It was approximately 20 months AFTER the legislature passed the Concealed Carry bill until citizens in those blue cities started to obtain CC permits.
I hope you fare better than Missouri as far as the time factor.
BTW Missouri is a Shall Issue state.
A "may issue" law will be subject to Seventh Circuit review.
Congratulations! Hell just froze over.
Even a may-issue law won't be the status quo. In rural counties, may-issue will practically equate to shall-issue. And if someone gets issued a permit in, for example, Bovine County, that person will almost surely be able to legally carry into Chicago.
Then you can start the good citizens of the Chicago suburbs asking: Why is it that Barry from out in Bovine County gets to carry in Chicago to defend himself against these thugs, and I live here and can't do the same?
Wyoming also has Constitutional carry.
My bad
St Louis and Kansas City found a technicality about funding and held up issuing permits for an additional 14 months.
California will be next, right? /s
Libs will continue to sue. Chicago will sue.
They don't stop.
They also get to "craft" the legislation and can like some other states make it virtually impossible to get a ccw license, especially in certain areas where one person can deny them.
It's a mindset we all must adopt - you never give up, you just change the venue and fight style to where it shifts.
Well, yes, however, if you can afford a lawyer just about any law can get judicial review. That doesnt mean youll prevail and in this case I think it would be very difficult.
You are correct Sir!
Hope it works out for IL gun owners, really. I dont think though the lefties are just going to roll over w/o a big fight. Really may issue depends on the obstacles put in the way.
In this instance, you would not be starting from scratch. The court has already issued an order, with a time limit. The law has to meet the court ordered criteria, and the court gets to decide if they have met it.
It is not as if someone has to bring a new lawsuit. It is more like the Kansas case, where the court ordered a school district to do certain things, and then judged whether they accomplished those things or not.
That is how it appears to me, with the limited information about the case that I have read.
Not perfect yet, but getting better year by year.
Jason Whitlock must be crying in his diapers.
OK, fair enough. Would be interesting to see what the court ordered and what the pols come up w/. Even so look at Heller vs DC. Although not identical its similar in nature. I think it was some time before DC kinda sorta did something toward what the court ordered. It seems to me the pols could keep this tied up in court for some time. That is, the pols have little respect for court orders unless it fits their agenda.
I hope to see it completely green some day.
Then they made their new law tremendously burdensome, and it is being appealed the old way, because the court did not order them to pass a new law, they just ruled the old law unconstitutional.
This ruling is better, because it tells the legislature to pass a new law that meets the court's requirements. I do not think the legislature will be the problem here. They have already been willing to pass a much improved law. Even the Chairman of the Chicago Black Caucus is on board. The problem will be Governor Quinn, who is a fanatical anti-freedom activist.
Don't get excited. It's a cinch that the Demoscum running IL will craft a new bill prohibiting people from concealed carry anyway.
Strange... not a word on DumpsterUnderground.com... 8*)
"...With every little victory, I smile...."
This is more than a "little" victory, my friend.
This is a giant middle finger from a judge on behalf of every gunny in the country to the former senator from Illinois...
So don't just smile now...big ol' cheesy grin is more apt. Show 'em dem dare pearly whites!!!!
Jason Whitlock must be crying in his diapers.
LOL! Lookin' like a FOOL with his pants on the ground!
Oh, I'm sure they'll fight as hard as they can.
But unless they can get it overturned (and I don't think they can) it's kind of hard to fight against a court ruling that says the state MUST put in place a carry law.
Well hotdog! I hope it goes well, very well!! Are you from IL by any chance?
No, Arizona. I am appalled by the corruption in Illinois, but every state has a large number of politicians that simply ignore their oath to defend and protect the Constitution.
If a flying saucer landed on your front lawn (near Chicago), it would contain an illegal alien or one with an unlimited visitor visa, looking like Rahm Emanuel, wearing a Pink Tutu, and asking for directions to the welfare office.
But the IL Legislature (aka Madigan's Lackeys) have 180 days, six months, to screw with us. And you can bet the rent they WILL try.
'Hopefully' enough down-state Blue Dog gun lovin' Dems (yes they exist) will tell the Chicago and Crook County Pols (Madigan's Puppets) to go take a flying ..... leap. And anything that does pass and becomes law mirrors the recent Concealed Carry Bill that (cough) 'almost passed'(1).
And in NO WAY comes close to the bullshiite that 'prisoners in Chi' have to go through just to have a legal gun in their house. It's one big Catch-22, they pretty much can't comply with the law. As in 'impossible'.
(1) IIRC; Basically if you have a valid IL FOID CARD you pretty much already qualify. Just pass a Certified Training program and you're good to go.

SLU Celebrates Dr. King's Legacy
Eight community leaders were recognized during the annual event that honors the life and influence of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

More than 200 members of the local and University community joined Saint Louis University for its annual tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Jan. 10. The event celebrated the life and accomplishments of King with music provided by the Jeffrey Hardin Band, prayer and the recognition of eight St. Louis leaders who've demonstrated a commitment to diversity, equality and civil rights.

Patty Haberberger, interim vice president for Human Resources, kicked off the event with words of welcome, and Paul Stark, S.J., vice president of Mission and Ministry, delivered the invocation and benediction. Michael McMillian, president and CEO of the Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis, once again served as master of ceremonies.
The event's keynote address was delivered by the Michael Jones, pastor at Friendly Temple Missionary Baptist Church. Jones spoke on the life of King and encouraged those in attendance to live their life with same drive and purpose as the late civil rights leader.
As part of the celebration, the university honored SLU and community leaders who have worked to promote equality in the St. Louis community. Those recognized were:
- Norman White, Ph.D., associate professor and director of the criminology and criminal justice undergraduate program, received the Don Brennan Humanitarian Award Norm has worked extensively with the researchers to examine the role of educational performance on the development of antisocial and delinquent behavior. His community work in youth violence prevention has fostered collaborative relationships with local organizations, stakeholders and political leadership.
- Frankie Muse Freeman, J.D., attorney and the first woman to be appointed the United States Commission on Civil Rights, received the Civil Rights Award. Freeman won the landmark NAACP case Davis v. the St. Louis Housing Authority, which ended legal racial discrimination in public housing. In 2007, Freeman was inducted to the International Civil Rights Walk of Fame at the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site in Atlanta.
- Donald Suggs, DDS, oral surgeon and publisher of the St. Louis American, received the Education Award. Suggs was the first African-American associate clinical professor at SLU's School of Dentistry. Suggs is the founder of the St. Louis American Foundation's Salute to Excellence in Education Scholarships, which is designed to increase the recruitment and retention of undergraduate students who typically are underrepresented at institutions of higher education.
- Melanie Dileo, Missouri state director for Citi Community Development, received the Civic Leadership Award. Under Dileo's leadership, Citi's businesses work closely to leverage Citi's financial and human capital in addressing community needs, such as community outreach and marketing events. Dileo believes that investing in neighborhood communities is a cost-effective means of delivering quality care to underserved communities.
- David and Thelma Steward received the Corporate Leadership Award. David Steward, founder of World Wide Technology, Inc., and his wife Thelma Steward have demonstrated exemplary leadership in community advancement. They have been praised and received numerous acknowledgements for their civic and philanthropic involvement in the St. Louis community.
- Maxine Clark, founder of Build-A-Bear Workshop, and her husband Bob Fox, founder of New Space Inc. and Casa de Salud, received the Community Leadership Award. Maxine Clark and Bob Fox set the bar in terms of community involvement , service, and leadership in the St. Louis Community. Casa de Salud provides free health care services to more than 12,000 members of the community each year.
The Martin Luther King Jr. memorial tribute was sponsored by the Human Resources MOVE committee.

Skip to comments.Just saw "An American Carol"--hilarious!
Posted on 10/03/2008 10:24:16 AM PDT by raccoonradio
Just saw the first showing of An American Carol; was expecting it to be pretty funny. Actually it was laugh out loud hilarious! And a good positive message, too! I urge you to see it.
As you could tell from the ads, Kevin Farley plays a Michael Moore-like director, Michael Malone. He is recruited by some terrorists to make a training film. He is haunted by ghosts such as JFK, Gen. Patton (Kelsey Grammer), the Angel of Death (Trace Adkins), and George Washington (Jon Voight). Washington shows him the church he used to pray at when New York City was the nation's capitol. Across the street...Ground Zero.
JFK shows him how we should "pay any price, bear any burden" for freedom. Patton shows him war is sometimes necessary--if we hadn't fought the Civil War, we might still have slavery!
The film shows us "the Real America" and the price we have to pay for freedom. There are tons of sight gags and physical humor (think Three Stooges, or the "Airplane" films director David Zucker gave us). The film spoofs A Christmas Carol and shows the folly of Malone trying to ban July 4th. Can he learn the error of his ways?
Anyone who enjoys "Airplane"-like humor will surely like it. (And stop calling me Shirley.) I wonder if libs will attend (after all, that evil Bill O'Reilly is in this...one scene shows Malone and comic "Rosie O'Connell" appearing on O'Reilly's show--and "O'Connell" unleashes a hilarious bit about Christian terrorists. Yes, we wouldn't have to go through airport security if those priests hadn't hijacked those planes!
See it!
I am thinking about bringing some of my kids this weekend to see it, but I am very careful about what they are exposed to in movies and TV. Can you tell me why the movie carries a PG-13? Was there any swearing? How about sex/nudity? (I assume that there is no violence to speak of. If there is and it happens to the Michael Moore character, that would be ok.)
Oh, and there's the protest rally where Malone can't stop the protesters from chanting insipid slogans! Chanting insipid
slogans! Chanting...or the Col. Univ speech where Malone is
to speak, only he's upstaged by professors who reveal why they spread their lefty politics to their students: so they can relive their glory days of "1968"! (Think "Hair"...)
I was going to ask the very same thing. Love to take my daughter with me.
My guys are camping with the scouts this weekend...and I'm going to see this! Thanks for the review!
What makes this movie PG-13? Is it just cussing? Or is it sex stuff? I've got an 11 and 14 year old daughters I'd like to take. I don't trust the rating systwm.
Thanks for the review. My wife and I are planning to see it this Sunday. Freepers, if you want to see more conservative-themed movies coming out of Hollywood, buy a ticket for An American Carol, and hopefully it will be a big success.
Going in about an hour and twenty minutes. I'll buy ten tickets, if there's any left :-)
Thanks! I really, really need a good giggle :)
Going with the whole family on Saturday. Thanks for the review.
Rush was talking about this movie in the first hour of his show today. He urged people to go see it because a lot of people have their necks stuck out on this movie. Should it flop, some conservative people in Hollywood, both in front of and behind the camera might have trouble working in the future.
Needs to get on Pay Per View. In the boonies, we won't get it in our theaters til 2010.
—the S-word and the A-hole word do pop up (the latter
by a kid, actually)
—one scene has two terrorists—who are afraid of getting blown up themselves—in a men's room stall and the noises they make are mistaken for 2 gay men having sex. ("You have to pull it, here...")
other than that fairly clean —cleaner than most movies—
and it's worth it for the message. Take your kids and, well,
"parental guidance is suggested".
Go to Movietickets.com and buy the tickets whether you can go or not.
Support this movie.
This site shows the first 10 minutes of the movie:
Wait for the very end of the ten minutes. The language is a little rough but is a riot anyway.
hopefully you will get it—I think it was supposed to be in 2,000 theatres or so. I saw it in Blue Country, Danvers MA
(though I will admit here on the North Shore of Boston I do
see some McCain/Palin stickers, lawn signs..._you never know)
...they're trying to defuse a bomb...
A PG-13 rating is a sterner warning by the Rating Board to parents to determine whether their children under age 13 should view the motion picture, as some material might not be suited for them. A PG-13 motion picture may go beyond the PG rating in theme, violence, nudity, sensuality, language, adult activities or other elements, but does not reach the restricted R category. The theme of the motion picture by itself will not result in a rating greater than PG-13, although depictions of activities related to a mature theme may result in a restricted rating for the motion picture. Any drug use will initially require at least a PG-13 rating. More than brief nudity will require at least a PG-13 rating, but such nudity in a PG-13 rated motion picture generally will not be sexually oriented. There may be depictions of violence in a PG-13 movie, but generally not both realistic and extreme or persistent violence. A motion pictures single use of one of the harsher sexually-derived words, though only as an expletive, initially requires at least a PG-13 rating. More than one such expletive requires an R rating, as must even one of those words used in a sexual context. The Rating Board nevertheless may rate such a motion picture PG-13 if, based on a special vote by a two-thirds majority, the Raters feel that most American parents would believe that a PG-13 rating is appropriate because of the context or manner in which the words are used or because the use of those words in the motion picture is inconspicuous.
Hey, I'm in Elko, Nevada, and it's on the marquee this morning.
Nope. No conspiracy here. The director, Zucker, didn't release an advance copy to reviewers. He knew it would be a pointless exercise!
From www.movietickets.com
An American Carol
1 hr. 23 min.
(PG-13), for rude and irreverent content, and for language and brief drug material
I'm going to see this tonight...can't wait.
Going tonight just to p*** off the libs...might even buy a couple extra tickets I don't need. Hope it has a great box office weekend and drowns the "W" and Bill Mars' piece of cinematic crap!
Hey liberals: The truth hurts.
Oh sure! Not as much as jumping onto a bicycle with the seat missing, but it hurts!
Subject titles for An American Carol messageboard on IMDB
This movie is anti-american
Wow, so the guy that wanted americans to have better health care is evil
Wanting decent health care is anti-american?
My goodness! They really tapped into the B + C-list pile of crap actors
Michael Moore films will always have a greater impact than this.
This actually is propaganda
.....but patriotism is as dumb as religion.
This Will Be Awesome
Review: 'Easily one of the worst films of the year.'
Do republicans really think this looks funny?
this is going to be the worst film in history
Yeah, I think there isn't a review yet in the (mostly
conservative) Boston Herald. Jim Verniere, one of their
reviewers, is probably gonna hate it anyway. He loves
lib films...
It's been a long time since I was a cub scout but I think they can handle the first ten minutes I saw. They're not babies.
Here's a really good reference site for movie and tv ratings. Gives you a detailed analysis of potentially offensive scenes in categories such as sex/nudity, violence, religious etc.
Since there was no advanced screening they don't have a review for "An American Carol" yet, but they said it will be up shortly. Still, if you're concerned about what your kids are seeing it's a great reference site to bookmark.
Go to Movietickets.com and buy the tickets whether you can go or not.
Support this movie.
Great idea!
Just came back from American Carol. Good movie. On the way there saw a group from "Rolling Thunder" on the road. Fine Americans.
I'm taking my gf's sons and my LITTLE BROTHER (Big Brother volunteer here) to it tonight. It looks funny!!
hopefully will be approved and will stay up but at least there will be some positive remarks, etc.
In the past I've gone onto amazon.com and given good reviews to books like "Michael Moore Is A Big Fat Stupid White Man"
It's really funny. I was laughing so hard. It's just as good as the first Airplane Movie and the first Naked Gun film. I went with about 10 people here and they all loved it.
Howie Carr list PING
An American Carol director David Zucker will be on with
Howie tonight during the 5 pm ET hour (prob during the
5:30-6 pm segment). Listen on stations throughout New
England (and listen in Montreal too; we aren't forgetting you,
"Steve" who tunes to AM 620 in Burl VT) and online
WRKO (have to join talk insiders, free)
Listen Live link at top
WCRN (now back to all four hours!)
(Windows Media, Winamp, or Real Player)
Also if you have Screamer Radio (free), go to Talk
And Comedy. One of the stations listed is WRKO
Cool, thanks! BTW, is Jay Severin still on the radio in that neck of the woods? Been a while since we've been to MA.
Yes Jay Severin is 3-7 pm on WTKK FM 96.9 and they streamcast
Glad you asked about kids. I want to support this movie by taking the whole clan Sat night. I know the little one won't get much out of it but the popcorn, but he's easy. I wanted to make sure it's OK for older elementary age too. I rented that animated one once (can't think of the name but the one with Kim Jong Il "me so ronery") and was shocked at the language, etc.
Can't wait to see it! I LOOOOOVE Kelsey Grammar.
yeah that one was from the south park guys, "Team America
World Police"
We got a babysitter (another mom from our special needs catechism class), and we're going. It'll be the first time we've gone to the theater in years.
Saw the flick and it was AWESOME!!!
It was very un-politcally correct, so the far-left will be all sorts of crying and whining about it!!!
Definitely, a must see movie!!!!!
yeah they're going nuts about it—condemning it as unfunny
and propaganda—at IMDB.com. My positive review, and a lib's negative review, had shown up but for some reason reviews
are not showing up on the site at all now(though messageboard posts are there)
DID you?
I am jealous.
I am going to see it tonight, then tomorrow will go see FIREPROOF, another Conservative choice for us to see.
Oh no, the guys (hubs and kiddo) are off to scouts. This is going to be MAMA'S NIGHT OUT!!!!
haven't had one of those in a while!
Must see this over the weekend

|In response to Re: Vent Pipe
: I have a Kitchen sink, in a house built in 1925, that was added in 1945 when the home was made into apartments.The sink in question has a direct drain to the basement, which goes into the wall and also has a 3" pipe above the junction going to the basement, that goes upward, which appears to be a vent pipe.
: Here is my cundrum. I am getting rid of that kitchen sink and expanding into the room via knocking down a wall between the kitchen and the other room and am getting rid of sink. Can this vent pipe simply be capped off, as well as the drain in the basement (nothing else is draining into it and appears to be added just for that sink), or do I have to reroute the pipe that is going upward (referred to as vent pipe)
: The vent pipe goes upward, then turns upward at 45 degrees (thats why I believe it is a vent pipe, instead of a drain.

I'm off to read it!
Kishi always manage to surprise me! It's so weird how he can always be that unpredictable! In overall, this chapter was slow in progress, but the pacing was just right, considering the previous chapters.
So, Madara can control zetsu-goo huh? Looks like he turned Obito's zetsu half into black zetsu? So he could control Obito and revive himself with the rinne tensei. Man, this is soo good! But Obito didn't have any of those black rods in him did he?
That last page...he thought of Rin right before, and it seems as though he performed a hand sign. Can someone tell me what happened on the last page? It looks like Obito's resisting, but I'm not sure.
Also, when Madara revives himself, he may be in trouble. He will not regenerate, and his chakra will not be unlimited.
Edit: Or is Madara forcing him to make that hand sign?
Looks like he performs a hand seal, but I don't think it's Obito's free will that does it. I think it's Madara controlling him to do the rinne tensei.
oh shT!!!
- So Madara used his control rods. I guess he did mention their were an extension of his will.
- I think Madara plan may backfire on him a bit since as revived person he will be mortal and not have limitless chakra.
- Obito becomes a sacrificial pawn as to be expected.
shts about to get real!
So, is it safe to assume that this worked only because Obito had been weakened, or that Madara didn't use it before because he really wanted to play while he had the Immortal Edo-Zombie Body ?
Now I wonder who will be revived, kukukukuku.
Oh right, we might actually see Minato flashtepping and balancing that impure will with his own, making Obito revive Rin after all... well maybe :p.
Also, looks like Kakashi made the same decision as Jiraya did. Looks like Naruto will really need to prove that there is another way.
Much better chapter. I was getting bored with the excessive fanservice. Can't wait to see how Madara will force Obito to revive him.
A couple of years ago, I theorized that Tobi was half Obito and half black Zetsu. And now he is! Can't wait to see some Madara and Sasuke interaction!
Overall a great chapter, and much development. Now we can speculate what's going to happen next again
Good chapter, it looks like we now have an answer to why Madara was so confident that Obito would carry out his will. It seems that he had implanted Black Zetsu into Obito from the beginning. The question now is, how much of what Obito did during the time that Madara was dead does Madara know about and how much was according to his plans. We still haven't been told why Obito was working so hard to get Sasuke on his side and develop Sasuke's eyes.
It seems like the story is really moving fast, if Madara is resurrected right here and now, this could potentially be the final showdown. Everything really seems to be coming to a head. Madara is about to reach the height of his power, Sasuke has returned, the Kages are all ready for battle and the Bijuu is about to achieve its final form. All of the villains aside from Madara have either been defeated or apparently reformed. This could potentially be the end of the series. Yet somehow I still feel like something is missing, its just too simple, I feel like there is still enough unknown information that a major plot twist is on its way.
Sasuke's intentions still seem unclear and the same is true for Orochimaru. Both Sasuke and Orochimaru are playing nice right now but their whole demeanor and the situation in general seems very suspicious. Sasuke is helping Naruto but he has said he wants to destroy the current system so that he can build a new one.
It still hasn't been revealed why Orochimaru brought back the Hokages in the Uchiha hideout and it still hasn't been revealed what his true reasons were for wanting to destroy the village. I don't believe that Orochimaru is reformed. There are also still some big plot points that haven't been addressed such as what happened to the Whirlpool village, why was it destroyed and by who. Another big question is, what was Obito's plan for Sasuke and what does he have that massive collection of Sharingan's for? It also hasn't been revealed how Madara survived his battle with Hashirama. There is also the big question of the Rikudou Tablet, Madara seemed to change his plans when he saw the tablet with the Eternal Mangekyou. I think it is very interesting that Sasuke also changed his ways when he was in the Uchiha hideout with his Eternal Mangekyou. We have been led to assume that Sasuke's current attitude was caused by Hashirama but I think Orochimaru brought Sasuke to the Uchiha hideout specifically to see the tablet, otherwise I see no reason for them to have gone there.
Obito's body being rigged is a nice twist... so much for the unsteady dynamic between him and Madara. He really was nothing more than a tool from the get go.
I wonder what state Madara will be in once he's revived. If his current level of power is beyond his prime due to Kabuto's enhancements, does that include his apparent youth? Will Madara be revived with all the powers of his Edo form, barring regeneration/infinite chakra, or will Madara be an old man again?
And what about the Juubi... I expected it to transform again before anyone attempted to become its Jinchuuriki. Obito's dying state really sped things up. I honestly didn't expect Kakashi to land the killing blow so easily / quickly. Guess we'll never see Obito make good use of his Mokuton/Rinnegan in battle. Maybe he showcased the height of his powers.
Can't wait to see the next chapter! All of the side plots are coming together at the main battlefield again, and we're done with the Konoha Rookie filler and the slaughtering of Juubi spawn. It's been a pretty slow few weeks since the Hokages arrived, but the last two chapters have finally got us caught up, and shit's about to hit the fan.

La Vida es Esperar, or Life Is Waiting
"Waiting for a Train" in Régua, Portugal (photo: Rosino/Flickr, licensed under Creative Commons)
I nearly stood up my very first client on the first day of my first job in social work. Graduate school had not prepared me for the intricacies of the scheduling system at the community health center where I was working. By the time I figured things out, I was nearly half an hour late for the appointment.
Mortified, I found my client, a sixty-year-old woman recently arrived from Puerto Rico, sitting placidly in a folding chair. She didn't say a word when I greeted her; she just followed me back to my office. She sat down opposite me with her coat on, holding her purse firmly in her lap. When I apologized for the wait, she looked at me steadily and said: "La vida es esperar." Don't worry about it. Life is waiting.
Then she told me about all the waiting she'd already done that day: waiting for the bus, waiting for the connecting bus, waiting at the social services office, waiting for a dental appointment, now waiting for me. After this she'd go wait for the bus some more. The upshot was: Did I really think I was so important? I was just another stop in between waits.
Oh, her manner was grim. She had steeled herself to endure the kind of waiting that comes with poverty and it had made her fierce and passive at the same time, if that's possible. She was pissed, she was resigned. I have never forgotten her, because she was right about la vida. But there are other ways to wait.
These days I spend less time social working and more time taking care of my kids, who are five and two years old. Waiting for small children can be maddening. And interminable. I wait for my daughter to tie her shoes with great effort and focus, for my son to walk ever so slowly up the stairs at the store, for the nap to end (or begin!). But the greatest moments of intimacy and love with my kids find me when I can accept the waiting and become present within it. There is no such thing as killing time for little kids, and when I am able to enter into that kind of time with them, I open up to all the possibilities of right now. Waiting with intention helps me to feel the present moment, and all the unexpected gifts it brings.
Advent waiting is like that. It is the opposite of the sort of dehumanizing waiting that my first client described. It is active waiting, a waiting I choose with my whole heart, which makes the world around me new and strange. Intentional anticipation clears a space for the present moment. There is nothing burdensome about it, though it is hard to do.
During Advent, we are waiting for God. But when you start to pay attention, you realize, When aren't we waiting for God? The paradox is that within that yearning, that focused waiting that catapaults you across the open expanse of not yet, you feel God to be always already here. How beautiful. How impossible! I am waiting for God, and while I do, God is waiting with me.
I grew up in a Unitarian Universalist-Jewish family. We observed a whole lot of things, but Advent wasn't one of them. As an adult, I became an Episcopalian. My husband was raised Catholic. We were both religion majors in college. In short: we have a lot of material to work with. Yet when it came to Advent, we weren't sure what our new family traditions would be. I know from experience that waiting for Christmas can feel like the worst kind of torture to a child. I wanted to find ways to wait together as a family that would help us to clear that space, to open ourselves up, and not be afraid of what we are yearning for.
We began with an Advent calendar. After Thanksgiving last year, the four of us made one from squares of felt that we decorated using all the crafting materials I could find in the house. We painted, glued, stickered, and markered the 24 squares, which are covered in lentils, sequins, ribbons, and googly eyes. Once they were decorated, I affixed them to a large rectangle of white felt and set about embroidering a number beneath each square.
I had very little experience with embroidery. I didn't realize how ambitious the project was when I began it; last year I only made it to 7. After Thanksgiving this year, I unrolled the calendar. I sat down in my mother's living room, listening to the sounds of my kids playing and my husband unloading the dishwasher. In that rare quiet stretch, I made it up to 12. That might be it for this year, but I hope not. In letting go of my urgency to get the thing done, I was able to experience the painstakingly slow work of embroidery as a fruitful Advent practice. Each stitch matters.
Plus, you know, waiting for God isn't easy. It's nice to have something for my hands to do. Our developing Advent rituals slow me down and make me a little more peaceful.
It is a gentle time, after all. I feel a new openness as we move into winter, like the birds' nests that are newly exposed now that the leaves have all fallen. There is a stillness in the season, a hush in the air that whispers: don't be scared. Don't be discouraged. Just wait.

Mohammed Saad, Inspector, National Corporation of Antiquities and Museums, Sudan and Amara West Field School participant
I'm currently excavating a grave (317) in Cemetery D. It extends east-west and is around 2.5 metres in length, with a rather small shaft (only about 90cm long) leading to a small burial chamber around 1.2m wide. There are no remnants of a superstructure, and the roof of the chamber has been removed by surface erosion, where a scatter of schist stones suggests the grave was looted in ancient times.
We unearthed skeletal remains and some faience and shell beads scattered in windblown sand in the burial chamber, but below this we found another skeleton, undisturbed and intact. Among the most interesting things about this burial are the plant remains found associated with it, which when studied will tell us more about how the bodies were treated for burial. The individual is rested on the remains of matting made from plant material. Its colour ranges between light and dark grey, but it's very soft and fragile. Wrappings of this kind have been found in other graves at Amara West, but rarely so well-preserved as in this case.
Directly underlying this skeleton, I found another one. This time, it was a completely intact adult male with a bad fracture to one of the bones of the left hand, and covered in the same kind of matting. There were also some objects buried alongside him: a shallow bowl and a small jar, which we think might date to the New Kingdom period, or shortly afterwards.

God has answered our prayers! I can't tell you how much I appreciate everyone's kind thoughts and prayers. The nurses moved him from ICU to another floor and his lungs are improving even though he hasn't coughed anything up. He looked worse today, but I think it's fatigue. I feel encouraged because I don't think they would move him out of ICU prematurely. Anyway I plan to baby him when he finally gets home.
Again, thank you very much.

Marvin and Reba Hansen have been named grand marshals to represent Elmo Town in the Emery County Fair Parade and for Elmo's Horse and Buggy Days. Marvin was born in Elmo to Ben and Liza Hansen in the same house they call home. Reba was born in Cleveland, Utah to Doyle and Anna Allred. They were married Sept. 17, 1955 at her parents home on the south flat road in Cleveland, Utah. They have lived their entire married life in Elmo. They have raised four daughters and have eight granddaughters and one grandson, in which they are very proud.
Marvin and Reba both worked for Emery County School District driving bus for more than 30 years. They are now both retired. Although retired, they love farming and continue to live a rancher's lifestyle raising cattle and sheep. Often they receive compliments on the good looking sheep surrounding their home. Marvin and Reba try to stay active riding their horses with their beloved collie, Sara. They also love going to Nine Mile Canyon where they take their cows.
Reba's love for playing softball still resides within her. She stopped playing fast pitch softball at the age of 53. Marvin always enjoyed watching her and took pride in her accomplishments. Like all true blooded farmers, they would get up early each summer morning to take care of the chores, hauling hay and caring for the animals so Reba and their girls could play softball. Reba has plenty of first place trophies she proudly displays in her home.
Marvin and Reba both participated in rodeos and still have a great love for going to rodeos. They like to travel to rodeos around the state to watch their grandson-in-law ride Saddle Broncs.
Marvin and Reba are proud to be Americans and always display our nation's flag.
Marvin considers Elmo, "God's Country". Daily you will see him in his truck riding around town. They don't venture far from Elmo, but when they do they are always asked "Where is Elmo?" Recently their grandson presented them with airline tickets to Montana. It was an adventure just getting them on the airplane, but once they arrived the blessings were bountiful.
The Hansen's consider the people of Elmo family. They live a modest lifestyle and are proud to be residents of Elmo. They have been active participants in Elmo Horse and Buggy Days celebration since the celebration began. They are known to carry the flags in the parade and are announcers for the annual Showdeo.
Marvin and Reba's daughters love them and are so very proud of their accomplishments.

Yarn Assortment - Buyer Beware
I was excited about an order I made from Herrschner's online the other day. That has changed since receiving my order today. As you can see in this image above, they are advertising an assortment of yarns. The advertisement says "Assorted Color and Styles". I thought that is what I would get. Boy was I wrong!! The advertisement is misleading.
When I opened the box I got this putrid yarn, 8 skeins all the same color. The purpose of purchasing an assortment was for projects that I will be making in the future and to experiment with some different yarn that I may not be aware of or think about trying. So much for that thought process.
I start doing some research to see how much this ugly yarn costs. They have it for $.99 cents a skein. I paid $11.99 per yarn assortment, purchasing two total. My total cost were $23.98 for both assortments. If I were to have purchased ugly yarn instead of yarn assortment, my cost would have been $7.92 for the 8 skeins. That leaves me a difference of $16.06 and I feel ripped off in two ways. One for the ugly color and two for the price difference. My suggestion is to beware of yarn assortments.
The other question I have is, What was Red Heart thinking in making such an ugly color?
Ugly yarn is getting shipped back for a refund. I will still order from Herrschner's in the future. I spoke with the customer service this afternoon and they have been very helpful.

How terrible!! I'm glad you're able to get your money back. Thanks for the warning!ReplyDelete
That's good to know. Thanks for the heads up!ReplyDelete
I am glad you pointed this out to us. It will make us beware & carefully check out an ad...ReplyDelete
Elsie <><
Yuck! You're right, that is an ugly color! I'm glad you're able to get a refund, they should be more clear on their items... And I'm glad the store was helpful, a lot of times they're rude and unhelpful.ReplyDelete
wow! i am sorry that happen girlReplyDelete
Oh Man, I hate when Yarn places online do that.ReplyDelete
Are they gonna give you the difference back in the cost?
Wow, thats really sad, I thought they were more reputable than that. Sheesh. Thanks for the warning! And I am glad to know they are being helpful with the return. :)ReplyDelete
Actually yarn like this makes a great afghan (I donate them to project Linus) when crocheted in a granny square or in the round format. But you did get ripped of $$-wise and expectation-wise so it's good they were helpful...Thanks for the warning...:-)ReplyDelete
Bummer that you didn't get the assortment you were hoping for, but at least customer service was helpful!ReplyDelete
I'm sorry that your order was not what you expected Teresa. But I'm glad you got your refund.ReplyDelete
I do think the yarn is a nice colour though. It should be very nice if paired with the correct colours for your project.
You posted this a WHILE ago, I'm sure, but I'm a newbie ... I'm HOOKED on their yarns .. however, I buy the 16oz fashion yarn assortments. I've gotten a few of the same, where I order 5, and get only two different types, but I send the duplicates back, and they're real good about sending me stuff I don't have. I've got a HUGE variety now. Their customer service is real good about everything, I've found.ReplyDelete

Calcium Channel Blockers (CCBs) »
"What are calcium channel blockers (CCBs) and how do they work?
Calcium channel blockers are drugs that block the entry of calcium into the muscle cells of the heart and arteries.
- The entry of calcium is critical for"...
(labetalol hydrochloride) Tablets
Trandate (labetalol) Tablets are adrenergic receptor blocking agents that have both selective alpha1-adrenergic and nonselective beta-adrenergic receptor blocking actions in a single substance.
Labetalol hydrochloride (HCl) is a racemate chemically designated as 2-hydroxy-5-[1-hydroxy-2-[(1methyl-3-phenylpropyl)amino]ethyl]benzamide monohydrochloride, and it has the following structure:
Labetalol HCl has the empirical formula C19H24N2O3•HCl and a molecular weight of 364.9. It has two asymmetric centers and therefore exists as a molecular complex of two diastereoisomeric pairs. Dilevalol, the R,R' stereoisomer, makes up 25% of racemic labetalol.
Labetalol HCl is a white or off-white crystalline powder, soluble in water.
Trandate Tablets contain 100, 200, or 300 mg of labetalol HCl and are taken orally. The tablets also contain the inactive ingredients corn starch, FD&C Yellow No. 6 (100- and 300-mg tablets only), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, lactose, magnesium stearate, pregelatinized corn starch, sodium benzoate (200-mg tablet only), talc (100-mg tablet only), and titanium dioxide.
What are the possible side effects of labetalol (Normodyne, Trandate)?
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor at once if you have a serious side effect such as:
- slow or uneven heartbeats;
- feeling like you might pass out;
- feeling short of breath, even with mild exertion;
- swelling or rapid weight gain; or
- nausea, upper stomach pain, itching, loss of appetite, dark urine, clay-colored stools, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes).
