Rated: R
Time travel is a tricky matter in fiction. How it is handled can range from simple and sublime to complex and convoluted. 'Looper', the third film from director Rian Johnson ('Brick', 'The Brothers Bloom'), leans towards the former, presenting a futuristic tale about a mundane thug planning for a future that has other plans for his present.
Our titular criminal simply goes by Joe, played by a prosthetics-affected and semi-unrecognizable Joseph Gordon-Levitt ('50/50', 'Premium Rush'). Joe is a looper, one of a group of guys who are cleaners for crime syndicates 30 years down the line from Joe's current timeline. As noted in his voiceover early in the movie, time travel does not exist … yet. Once invented, it is locked down severely. Criminals are the ones who use and abuse it, taking advantage of it to dispose of unwanted bodies. This where we find Joe at the outset of 'Looper', performing this fairly boring task. Between his work, and occasionally spending time at a gentlemen's club, life in the despondent and depressing 2044 presented to the viewer is pretty straightforward for Joe. Once in a while, things get exciting, such as when one of the looper's targets makes a run for it. When it happens to Joe's best friend Seth (Paul Dano, 'There Will Be Blood'), Joe is presented with a quandary about assisting his friend. The problem is that Seth was supposed to 'close his loop', and kill himself sent back from the future, leading to his retirement. Instead, he let him go.
The film's pacing picks up when Joe is confronted with a similar issue, but old Joe (Bruce Willis, 'Die Hard', 'Moonrise Kingdom') fights back and escapes. The local crime lord, Abe (Jeff Daniels, 'Dumb and Dumber', 'The Squid and the Whale'), does not take this news well, with a city-wide hunt ensuing for both men. While Joe wishes to retire gracefully, and get back into Abe's good graces by capturing himself, old Joe has an ulterior motive for returning.
Rian Johnson's first film, 'Brick', was a classic hard-boiled crime noir set in a modern high school. Johnson once again delivers a very noir-like movie, but sets it 30 years into the future. Comments are even made to jest about why people in the future still dress like 20th century folk, noting the anachronisms of a classic crime tale told out of time and place. Additionally, but setting it in the middle of Kansas, both the past, present and future are once again mingled and juxtaposed well with the time travel aspect of the film. Thankfully, the science and logic of time travel in 'Looper' is not heavily explained in exposition, which can lead to many plot holes and conundrums; one of the characters even laughs off trying to explain it, that it would take '10 hours..' to tell that tale. In most cases, less is more, and Johnson follows that tenet well.
Gordon-Levitt, as in most anything he acts in, shines again, doing his best Bruce Willis impressions while also donning makeup to help complete the persona. The rest of the cast is impressive, yet reserved, as well, from Willis as the older Joe, to Emily Blunt ('The Adjustment Bureau', 'The Devil Wears Prada'), who plays a woman who reluctantly helps Joe against his older self.
Science fiction, especially hard (see: realistic) sci-fi, is a difficult trick to pull off. Few recent films, such as 'Moon' and 'Children of Men', have pulled it off. Most sci-fi movies decide to use too much CGI, as it is much cheaper to create in the modern era, and, therefore, can become a director's crutch. Johnson decides to utilize CGI, but sparingly, and only when needed to remind us that this is not the world of 2012 in 'Looper'. Instead, he delivers a smart, exciting story that uses a number of classic sci-fi tropes in a clever, imaginative manner.

Chiltern top for punctual trains
9:30am Tuesday 12th March 2013 in News
Chiltern Railways has been named the most punctual rail operator in the UK.
Figures from Network Rail show the company which operates services to London via Banbury and Bicester show 86 per cent of services were on time over the last year.
That compares to 69.7 per cent for First Great Western and 46.8 per cent for CrossCountry services.
Andrew Munden, operations and safety director at Chiltern Railways, said: "We're delighted to maintain our position at the top of the league table. However, it's important not to be complacent and we are constantly looking at ways to further improve and give passengers the best service possible."

Cosmo has come up with a fat-torching plan that really will subtract up to 5 pounds from your bod in seven days without starvation, bizarre supplements, or cutting out entire food groups. How? It's all about small sacrifices combined with specific techniques. And rather than giving you a one-size-fits-all regimen, we figure you're more likely to stick with the plan if you pick the eating and exercise strategies that fit your lifestyle.
So choose at least four of the nutritionist- and fitness expert-backed tips that follow, and vow to work them into your schedule for seven days straight. If you feel ambitious, tack on a few more. The more you pick, the more weight you'll lose. If you start now, by this time next week, you'll look and feel way lighter.
A sports or energy drink, fruit smoothie, or light beer each serving contains about 100 calories. Yet these beverages don't satisfy you the way 100 calories of food does, so they're a waste. Other liquids may be high in sodium and carbohydrates, which trick your body into retaining water, puffing you out.
Water, on the other hand, has zero calories and carbs and little to no sodium, making it the perfect slim-down drink. And strangely, it actually helps flush out excess water weight as well as jump-starts your metabolism. If it's just too boring, add lemon wedges or mint leaves.
These days theres more than one way to feed your Cosmo fix. You can get your subscription to the print magazine as you always have, or if youd prefer to get it sent to you as a digital edition to read on your iPad, tablet, or Nook, weve got you covered. And, when you just cant get enough Cosmo, well give you even morecheck out our Sex Position of the Day app for your iPhone or Android-enabled device. Now hows that for a turn-on?
Whether you've just met your man or are long-term loves, this guide deciphers the meanings behind his actions.

I was also so touched by the Letters to the Lost segment in Glamour - there was also a beautiful article in the very beginning of Vogue September by a survivor. So emotional, so strange to relive it all and see how it has effected everything around us.
On a lighter note though, that is an adorable graphic tee, missy :)

4WD SuperCab 142' Lariat
Starting at $34,625 | Starting at 0 MPG City - 0 MPG Highway
Provided by NADAguides.com
The 2011 Super Duty F-350 is the largest Ford pickup available with a single rear-wheel configuration. Coming in a XL, XLT, Lariat and King Ranch Crew Cab for 2011, the Ford Super Duty F-350 SRW standard features included on all trim levels is air conditioning, a configurable cargo bed, Trailer Sway Control and AdvanceTrac stability control. 2011 Ford Super Duty F-350 SRW Lariat as well as the King Ranch Crew Cab models upgrade with leather-trimmed leather seating, Ford SYNC, reverse vehicle sensor aid and integrated trailer brake control. Rear-wheel and four-wheel drive, a new set of engines sets in the 2011 Super Duty F-350 SRW in motion. A standard E85-compatible, 6.2 liter V-8 engine provides a very usable 385 horsepower and 405 foot-pounds of torque. For more power, a new 6.7 liter V-8 Power Stroke turbodiesel presents 800 foot-pounds of torque. The Power Stroke turbodiesel is also equipped to run B20 bio-diesel fuel.
For 2011, Ford has taken its F-250 (three-quarter-ton), F-350 Super Duty (one-ton), and F-450 pickups and infused them with even more of the things owners hold in high regard--namely powerplants. Super Duty trucks are ideal for towing and hauling, and a host of new features such as Hill Ascent and Hill Descent Control, make the task even easier, while giving drivers added piece of mind.
Ford's Super Duty F-Series trucks are refined and refreshed for 2011, with an emphasis placed squarely on power. The front end is bigger and bolder in its design, including the grille, which boasts a Blue Oval emblem more than a foot across. The hood has also been reconfigured to make room for two newly available engines--a 6.2L gasoline V8 and a 'Scorpion' 6.7L Power Stroke turbocharged diesel--each of which boasts more power than its predecessors. Both are mated to an all-new 6-speed automatic transmission.
Ford has always offered its pickups in an array of configurations to suit every taste, need and budget, and the 2011 Super Duty trucks carry that thinking forward with three cab styles--regular, SuperCab and Crew Cab--and two bed lengths. The Super Duty utilizes a fully boxed front frame section, and Ford claims to use the thickest-gauge steel of any pickup in its frame.

MAY 2012 - Africa Progress Report 2012
Jobs, Justice and Equity: Seizing opportunities in times of global change
The 2012 Africa Progress Report, launched today by the Africa Progress Panel, warns that Africa's strong economic growth trajectory – which will see the region increase the pace of growth well beyond 5 per cent over the next two years – is at risk because of rising inequality and the marginalisation of whole sections of society.
Kofi Annan, Chair of the Africa Progress Panel, states in the report that, "Disparities in basic life-chances – for health, education and participation in society – are preventing millions of Africans from realizing their potential, holding back social and economic progress in the process."
MAY 2011 - Annual Report
Africa Progress Report 2011
This year, the Africa Progress Report is dedicated to the transformative power of partnerships. While the idea of pooling a range of actors and their energy, creativity and resources around specific development challenges is hardly new, too few success stories are replicated or brought to scale to effect lasting structural change. Against this backdrop, this year's report identifies partnership models that have already proven their transformative potential and assesses how to create the policy framework and incentive structure needed to spur further collaboration for progress. The report argues that all actors, including governments, international organizations, the private sector and civil society, can do more to facilitate the spread of successful models across sectors and countries, and that doing so is in their self-interest. It also argues that much work remains to be done to convince all sides of the inherent benefits of partnering for progress. This is the main purpose of this report.

Africa Progress Panel members Kofi Annan, Peter Eigen, Linah Mohohlo and Olusegun Obasanjo launched the Africa Progress Report 2010 on 25 May 2010 in Johannesburg. The landmark publication analyses the continent's progress and issues key recommendations to African leaders and its international partners. The report was launched in coordination with the launch of ONE's 2010 DATA Report

JUNE 2008 - Annual Report 2008
Africa's Development: Promises and Prospects
The Africa Progress Panel's report, was launched in June 2008 by Kofi Annan, Michel Camdessus and Tidjane Thiam in London. The report states that the world food crisis "threatens to destroy years, if not decades, of economic progress" as "100 million people are being pushed back into absolute poverty". "Unless some way can be found to halt and reverse the current trend in food prices there will be a significant increase in hunger, malnutrition, and in infant and child mortality".

DaisyDisk scans your disks and presents their content as interactive maps where you can easily spot unusually large files and remove them to get more free space. The map gives you an overview of your data, so you always know what your hard disks are filled with.
No matter how large your disks are, the amounts of data you store on them grow too fast. You can ease your life for a while by using one of automatic "cleaners" to save a few hundred megabytes or even a few gigabytes but very soon you'll face the same problem. We propose a better solution: find out real space wasters and remove them. Fast and easy. DaisyDisk scans your disks and display them in a form of the interactive visual map, so you can find out where the space have gone, preview and delete large files and folders you no longer need. You can find out a long ago forgotten virtual machine image, huge cache file or a DVD movie rip you wanted to see during last year's vacation. It's way more efficient than spending hours on manually sorting downloads folder or guessing how come your Mac drive has no free space when you need it most. There're much better uses to your disks than carrying useless data.
DaisyDisk is not only visually appealing, it's also very easy to use. Once scanned, your disk is displayed as sunburst map, a very visual representation of all your files and folders. We have put many efforts into improving original sunburst map and the application's interface to ensure it leaves competition far behind. Consistent coloring and familiar navigation makes sure you won't get lost in data debris, fine-tuned disk map provides relevant information and preview is right when you need it. Animated transitions are not just eye candy, they improve navigation. There's much more than meets the eye.
DaisyDisk gives you a perfect overview of all volumes currently mounted, be it internal disk, USB thumbstick, FireWire drive, network or even virtual disk mounted with FUSE. Mount disk images, attach external drives and they're immediately displayed in DaisyDisk's list. Add, delete files, unmount disks... all the changes are real time, so you always know which volumes are mounted and how much free space you have on each of them. You can also get volume info and eject volumes from within the application.
Modern hard disks can be as big as several terabytes and contain millions of files and folders. Scanning such amounts of data can take significant time even on modern hardware as disk speed cannot catch up to the growth of the capacity. We have fine-tuned our scanning engine so disk analysis runs as fast as possible. As a result, DaisyDisk outperforms competing products in scan speed by up to 50%. Hey, DaisyDisk won't even choke on Time Machine disks which causes many "disk scanners" to freeze or crash.

Hide custom toolbars Currently when I create a toolbar, it is always visible. I would like the following enhancements, if possible:
1) The ability to hid a custom toolbar. 2) The ability to hide/show a custom toolbar depending on the configuration. In case there's a better solution, what I'm trying to handle are some macros that are only relevant to a particular type of file, and I'd like to only see them when necessary. Solution #1 is to do that manually. #2 (preferred) would be do that automatically. |

Friendship is Magic Wins Cablefax Award for Best Animated Series
To all the people who are have worked on the show, you guys/gals really have pulled off something amazing. I don't think anyone thought a My Little Pony revamp would be this epic a year ago.
Onward to more awards! We will take over the world at this rate!

Well, there are times to be modest but this was expected by most of us here. Let's reach higher now folks!
Props to the guys working on the show by the way, should never forget about them. - October 18, 2011 at 6:09 PM

This is how we'll end up watching ponies on prime time spots when the simpsons are gone.
Plus, you can't really say 'a year ago' anymore. - October 18, 2011 at 6:10 PM

pff, obvious award is obvious. Why hasn't MLP won every single award on that category yet?

I dunno quite how much this means. The other finalists were Archer (which I had never even heard of until now) and Transformers Prime, which FiM couldn't possibly lose. No idea how many initial entrants there were or if it included other cartoons with actual popularity like Adventure Time.
I mean, I feel it deserves second-best cartoon in the past 5 years easily after Avatar: The Last Airbender, but it'd mean more if Cablefax actually took the category seriously and rounded up some actual competition. - October 18, 2011 at 6:14 PM

And it goes to whom it rightly belongs. I can't think of any other animated series that has happened this year that has impressed me as much as MLP.
- October 18, 2011 at 6:18 PM

If simple passing it on telling MLP:FiM is SO AWESOME, then let them win awards such as this to be known.
We knew that this was going somewhere, bout time the team gets some credit =)

Actually Archer is a very good show, but a complete 180 from MLP. I highly recommend checking out the first season, it is full of some great one-liners. However, the best definitely won here!

@Lupus Albus
Archer is one of the funniest shows on tv right now, and Prime is probably the best Transformers series ever.
Neither one comes close to FiM though. - October 18, 2011 at 6:26 PM

I'm betting on 8.

@CharginChuck I WILL FIGHT YOU! ARMADA WAS BEST TRANSFORMERS SERIES...
Starscream is best transformer and Armada had the most "Human" reaction between the Decepticons and the "Kindest" incarnation of Megatron, Armada took the Idea of not Good Vs. Evil but Idealism Vs. Pragmatism for the endless battle between the Autobots and decepticons.
Shattered Glass is a close second with Animated as a less close third.

@DRTJR Sorry I have to stop you here, Armada was one of the worst seasons.
G1 Transformers was and always be the best of the series. Transformers Animated is literally "the" worst season right under the Unicron trilogy.
And congrats to MLP, in the immortal words of Fluttershy. Yay!

I just thought it was awesome that both of my favorite animated shows, MLP:FiM and Archer, both got nominated. Yay, I have taste!
But what makes that pairing so especially interesting is the fact that Archer and MLP:FiM are, in essence, polar opposites. One is an upbeat, beautifully animated bout of family entertainment with strong emphasis upon friendship, morals, and values. The other is a cynical, more rigidly animated piece of mature-themed humor that emphasizes conflict, insults, and sarcastic jabs.
Not to say Archer is a bad show. As mentioned previously, it's one of my favorites. But its focus is more on its dialog and humor than other elements MLP:FiM excels at like animation and world building. They are, and I mean this in the sincerest sense, polar opposites. So it goes to show that even if your show's very foundation is wildly different from others, it won't stop it from being good. - October 19, 2011 at 12:23 AM

Honestly, I can see MLP:FiM winning a Grammy for its soundtrack quite easily. Winning an Oscar for a MLP:FiM movie? That's the award I don't see happening in my lifetime. - October 19, 2011 at 3:37 AM

Well the hypothetical FiM you speak of could win an Oscar in the best animated feature category. The real challenge is a My Little Pony stage show earning a Tony. - October 19, 2011 at 3:11 PM

So, I did some initial research... what do you bronies think of gunning for the Annual Gemini awards? The latest entry that won in the "Best Animated Program or Series" category was Hot Wheels Battle Force 5... there was no nomination for MLP:FiM, but I'm uncertain as to whether the Hub even set forth its collection of shows for judging. Of course, if MLP was submitted for entry and wasn't selected, there's no helping that.
There's also the Banff World Television Awards presented at their World Media Festival in Canada. That'd be cool if we won an award there as well. - October 24, 2011 at 6:48 PM

Reimagine your wallpaper with Ice Cream Sandwich LWP
For all their processor-stressing, battery-draining drawbacks, live wallpapers are still lovely to watch. This one animates the rainbow-esque screen that comes stock on Nexus gadgets and has become associated with Ice Cream Sandwich. Ice Cream Sandwich LWP will let you watch those swirls and bubbles in the wallpaper dance around.
The installation of this app goes smoothly. Most of the knocks against this wallpaper are the same as for any live wallpaper. It sucks your battery charge very quickly and it pushes your phone's RAM more than a wallpaper really should. It's clear that this particular live wallpaper … Read more

From the Editor |
Ask pretty much any contract manufacturer what their medical device OEM customers can do to make their lives easier, and they will say something along the lines of "involve us as early as possible in the product development process." Regardless of how often that point is talked about, it still doesn't happen as often as it should, says Bob Lathrop, owner of Lathrop Engineering (San Jose, CA). "In many cases, contract manufacturers are not involved until the design is set," Lathrop says.
Lathrop Engineering specializes in product develop for instrument and product development. The device above is an example of their handiwork. |
One example of this, in particular, sticks out Lathrop's mind. "I was at a meeting once with [an OEM] to develop a particular device and everybody and their brother was there sitting at a really long conference table," he recounts. "They had a guy from manufacturing and they had all of the people that made it look right. But the manufacturing guy was just sitting there; he wasn't really engaged. Later, when it came time to start placing the tooling, he decided he didn't like flex circuits," Lathrop says. "It was a little late to decide that, when the design was all done and the design had been shown to work!"
Another piece of advice Lathrop offers is to avoid letting the contract manufacturer do early work for you for without paying them for it. "If you think you can just call up and get a quote for free and that is it, you are going to get what you pay for," Lathrop explains.
Ideally, the contract manufacturer's purchasing department should carefully look at your bill of materials and put their own estimates together with as much backup data as they can get. Although the numbers they come up with are clearly not set in stone, as the design matures and parts are firmly selected, the estimates become increasingly accurate. "But if you don't pay them to do that, you are likely to get something of a thumbnail sketch—and you can't afford that," Lathrop says. "It is worth telling them: 'I am going to pay you; give me value.'"
The same principle should apply to your dealings with a manufacturing engineer, Lathrop says. "You have to actually pay that person to lay out how they are going to do the assembly and ensure that there is a quality product coming out."
Quality is also a vital consideration for prototypes. "If a prototype doesn't reek of quality, people don't want to give it a second thought—no matter what the design is," Lathrop says.

My question is about the ITD generation to Enumeration class types.
You Only can generate ITD for Class types.
ROO avoid this behaviour in AbstractItdMetadataProvider method get:
Why ¿?Code:public final MetadataItem get(String metadataIdentificationString) { ... // Cancel production if the governor is not a class, and the subclass only wants to know about classes if (cid != null && dependsOnGovernorBeingAClass && cid.getPhysicalTypeCategory() != PhysicalTypeCategory.CLASS) { produceMetadata = false; } ...
My problem is that I not able to add an ITD to an Enumeration Class or in other cases to another class type that is not a class.
Is there any reason or this could be an improvement ?
Thank you for your time !

Bobby Rush Wins 11th Term in Congress
Within the redrawn 1st Congressional District, Bobby Rush will keep his seat for two more years as suburban voters weren't enough to propel Don Peloquin to a win.
Bobby Rush will continue to represent the 1st Congressional District of Illinois on Capitol Hill after winning his 11th term Tuesday.
As of 10:40 p.m. Tuesday, Rush took in 212,661 votes, compared to 70,903 votes for challenger Don Peloquin, who campaigned as the Republican nominee for the seat. The count was with 582 of 617 precincts reporting from Suburban Cook County, Will County and Chicago.
The new 1st Congressional District now holds a northeast boundary just around Chicago's Bronzeville community, continuing near the Dan Ryan and along I-57, before cutting west, including towns south of I-80, before ending at rural Elwood at its farthest southwest point. The district includes Chicago neighborhoods, such as Hyde Park, Washington Park, Auburn Gresham, Chatham, Burnside, Washington Heights and Beverly.
Past the city, Evergreen Park, Oak Lawn, Palos Heights, Alsip, Blue Island, Oak Forest, Midlothian, Tinley Park, Orland Park, Orland Hills, Mokena, New Lenox, Frankfort, Manhattan and several other towns are now within the same congressional district along with the Chicago neighborhoods.
See which towns are in the new district using this GIS map's red flag setting.
Bobby Rush was not immediately available for comment.
Don Peloquin said the campaign as an experience brought plenty of rewards, even with the loss.
"I'm encouraged that so many people got together, worked hard, went out and became part of the process instead of sitting on the sidelines," Peloquin said, in a phone interview. "The campaign brought different people from different areas together. To me, this is what America is about. I feel privileged to be able to run for Congress."
Rush, 65, came to politics after activism. He grew up on Chicago's West Side after moving from Albany, GA, when he was 8 months old. Rush served in the U.S. Army from 1963 to 1968, and joined the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee in 1966, before going AWOL from the Army. He later was honorably discharged.
Rush then founded the Black Panther Party's Illinois chapter after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination. Following a stint in prison for firearm possession, he established a free medical clinic that began the most widespread sickle-cell anemia testing program in the country.
He holds two master's degrees, one in political science and the other in theological studies. Rush has served as a church pastor and is an ordained Baptist minister.
During his time in Congress, Rush has supported the Telecommunications Act of 1996 under President Bill Clinton, while more recently he supported the Affordable Health Care Act and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. He has also supported numerous gun control laws.
He claims to have brought over $1 billion in funds to the 1st District during his decade in office.
Read on for Bobby Rush's stances on job creation, health care, the federal deficit and other issues.
Rush claims the distinction as the only politician to beat President Barack Obama in an election, doing so in the 2000 congressional primary. In October 1999, Rush's son Huey Rush was killed in a shooting. About five months later, Rush also buried his father.
In 2005, Rush faced foreclosure on his home at the same time he was creating programs to help inner-city residents who were failing on their mortgages.
In 2008, Rush developed cancer of a salivary gland that was later treated through a debilitating combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. He announced he had beaten the disease after five months of treatment.
Rush still engages in activism even while in office. Earlier in the year, he donned a hooded sweatshirt and sunglasses on the House floor to protest the shooting death of Trayvon Martin and was kicked off the floor.
Peloquin served as Blue Island mayor for 27 years, and said earlier in the campaign he will not run for another term as mayor. This was his first campaign for an office other than the city's mayoral seat.
Peloquin said he doesn't see another political move for him on the horizon.
"I'll go back to work," Peloquin said. "I'll continue working with the great mayors around here I've built relationships with. When my term as mayor is completed April of next year, I'll leave with my head held high."

This man has no concern for the suburban areas. After Adam Kinsinger was voted into office the crooked democratic machine ousted him in favor of this black panther representative. I tried to send bobby an email and the reply was that I am not in his district (guess someone forgot to tell him). So, I sent a fax and STILL have not received a reply. What a shame that crooked politicians are in control of our lives.

It is a travesty that a man like Bobby Rush is our representative. Thanks to the creative redistricting, he now "represents" more of us out here in the southwest. I don't think he could find Orland Park on a map, much less come out here. I guess he's afraid of confrontation.
John Greer
7:51 am on Saturday, November 10, 2012
He should be afraid of neo-con racists, don't you think so?
9:29 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Thanks to Madigan and his mapping expertise, we end up with the likes of Rush. It's a joke, what they do to our state in order to keep power. Madigan has to go, along with Rush and please take Jesse Jr. as well.

Amen Stones...And in the last interview I saw on television with Rush, you couldn't even understand him when he talks. He may care about his "Chicago" constituents, but don't give a rats behind about his suburban constituents.
I can only say God Help us for the next 4 years.
John Greer

Did you read that he just survived salivary gland cancer? That is why he speaks like that. Why would you ever care, you never like black people in the first place,
Dave Wagner
9:53 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Then why has he never been out here? It's his District. He is our representative. He hasn't the foggiest idea what our concerns are. And I have tried to talk to his office without success. Besides, I have no respect for an AWOL serviceman no matter who got his discharge changed.
9:56 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Anyone who complains about Mr. Rush, and didn't vote is part of the problem.
9:56 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Wake up LW. A former Black Panther is your representative.

12:43 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
I voted and it was not for Rush. I bet he does not even know where Frankfort is. What a bunch of crap that we are lumped in the same district as the southside of Chicago. The concerns of the Southwest Suburbs citizens are no concern to Bobby Rush. He only cares about his Southside of Chicago citizens. Him and Jesse need to go join thier BFF Former Gov. Blago in prison!!!!!!!
1:46 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Hey Bobby! Let's play a game. See if you can find your way to Elwood for breakfast. Stop in Manhattan for lunch and dinner in New Lenox. Do this with out GPS. Do you know what highway to get on?

2:12 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
The thing I'm thankful for is all the same pieces of crap that put Illinois in the dire situation its in were re-elected. And I'm tired of Chicago politicians representing me. And to be frank, as long as towns in the southwest are lumped with the ghettos, crap like Rush is what we'll always be getting.
7:35 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Michael Madigan and his creative redistricting is to blame for this. He's probably very thrilled with his results.
10:21 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
I don't understand all the concern about Rush. Throughout his life he has shown concern for those less fortunate. His old district has one of the highest crimes rates in the country. He nows has some of the LW area in his district, this will reduce the crime rate. This proves my statement that he shows concern for the less fortunate. His district will no longer be the biggest joke in America. Of course we have a president that is a bigger joke. It's over folks.
Dave Wagner
10:39 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
From what I can determine, he supposedly brought over $1 bil into his district over the last 20 years, and are his constituents any better off? Are more of them better trained for jobs? Are there more jobs available? Is the crime rate lower? Is the graduation rate any better? I don't have all the data that I need, but from what I have I can say that in general, his constituency is worse off. Is it entirely his fault? No, but his party, they run Springfield by the way, has helped to make things worse. Has he fought with them? Nope, a loyal party member, not doing much, just trying to get re-elected. I wish I was wrong.
11:21 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
Dave, you're right on. Drive through the eastern end of our new district. Of course, don't do that between noon and 2am, especially on a hot summer day. The Englewood area is worse than Detroit. This is a good picture of the future for the southwest suburbs. Rush is a sick man, but eventually he will be replaced with another democratic party hack. Our area is now being squeezed by the democrats in Joliet and Chicago. We sat here and watched it happen. We are complicit and I think we are too late to do anything about it. Illinois is going down the tubes and most of us are unable to take the financial hit in selling our homes 50% under market value. It's the worse case scenario for anyone who is a good citizen who has played by the rules all his life. Sorry to be so negative, but the truth is the truth.

The State of Illinois is bankrupt, yet all the same clowns get reelected? Shameful lemmings in this State. Death rate in Chicago higher than last year. I blame the idiots who keep voting for more of the same. More takers than makers in Illinois. Abe Lincoln must be spinning in his grave.
7:24 am on Friday, November 9, 2012
I don't get all the grief Congressman Rush is getting here. I live in Orland Park and the last time we were redistricted, after the 2000 census, I was put in Bobby Rush's district. While I was happy that I was in a Democratic district (yes, I am originally from the SW side of Chicago and a Democrat), I was not overly pleased that it was Rush's district. I was hoping for Lipinski. I was worried that Mr. Rush would not really think about this side of his district.
Over the years, I have written to the Congressman about 10-15 times about different issues and every time I have gotten a response. Not always the response I wanted, but I did get a response. WHile I still believe he pays more attention to his base constituents on the south side of Chicago, he does listen to us out here in the burbs. I have seen him at a forum in Orland Park a few years ago, so he does know we exist here. Give him a chance.
And to the one who was complaining about his speech.. HE is a cancer survivor. He had cancer in him salivary gland. He has had part of his jaw removed and is lucky he can still speak at all.
12:43 pm on Friday, November 9, 2012
Bobbie Rush was voted into office solely based on race. Plain and simple! The entire Districts boundaries give him an unprecedented edge and keep the District in Democrat's control. The District has been represented by African Americans since 1929 and has not elected another party's representative since 1932. The ethnic demographics give them the edge! The district has the highest percentage of African-American residents of any congressional district in the nation. 29.5% White, 65.5% Black, 1.4% Asian, 4.8% Hispanic, 0.2% Native American, 1.4% other. This is Democracy? Tilting the balance of the voting bloc to one specific race! No,,this is designed control by a party to assure a seat! Even up the odd's here so the people have a real choice! Like Illinois,,this district has become a Monarchy. Democracy no longer exists in Illinois, Chicago or Crook County!
Dave Wagner
9:41 am on Friday, November 9, 2012
Give him a chance? He's been in office 20 years. It's like saying we should give Madigan a chance.
9:45 am on Friday, November 9, 2012
Yes, he has been in office over 20 years and yes, I say to the people he is new to, give him a chance to work for you. In the last 10 years, I have had no real problem with him. He has responded to my letters, overall, his voting record is in line more or less with my values. He is not really a bad congressman...or are you one of those who hate him just because he is from Chicago and a Democrat? If so, no one except a suburban Republican will work for you, but if you have an open mind give him a chance and you may just be surprised.
Dave Wagner
10:07 am on Friday, November 9, 2012
My reasons are my reasons. I am not trying to change your mind, and you are not going to change mine. I don't agree with most of his positions. I don't agree with his 'conversion' from Black Panther to legislator. I can't abide he went AWOL. I don't think he has done the right things for his constituents, inner city or suburban. I don't think most of the career politicians, no matter the party, do as much as they can unless you count lip service and throwing more money at the problems. Do you like him just because he is a Chicago Democrat? Why don't you just call me a racist while you are at it. You've apparently made your mind up about me based on my disagreement with your opinions. I was willing to continue to try to have an intelligent discourse until I got to that republican comment. And by the way, Freddie, why be anonymous? Got a last name? And I say this to ALL who opine on a variety of subjects - it is Chicken 'bleep' not to let others know who you are.
11:07 am on Friday, November 9, 2012
yep..i have a last name, but I learned long ago after making comments on another board never to use my full name since I started getting phone calls in the middle of the night from people who disagreed with me.
ANd no, I don't like him just because he is a Chicago Democrat, but being a Democrat does go a long way to my liking of him. Like I said, I am a Democrat. I lived my first 30 years about a mile north of Midway. I, unlike a lot of people I know, as I grew older became more concerned about social issues. As my old companions grew more materialistic and conservative, I grew more liberal. My father, who in the 50's was involved in politics in Stickney township and ran a small Ma & Pa store there for years, told me a long time ago that "Republicans are for big businesses and themselves, Democrats are for the little guy" and in my life, I have seen just that. I am now 55 years old and looking at how the Republican agenda wants to take away the safety nets that people need to survive. I see how the Republican agenda wants to give the Big Businesses more leeway to take away hard fought rights from the workers. I also believe as they say in Church "whatsoever you do to the least of your brothers, that you do unto Me". If you treat the poor and downtrodden poorly, you do so to the Lord. The people who have more, have a moral obligation to help out those not as fortunate. These are values I do not see in the GOP agenda.
11:11 am on Friday, November 9, 2012
Also, I never mentioned race, you brought that up. I just mentioned he was a Chicago Democrat. It seems that you have a problem with someone from Chicago representing you. We are lucky here in Illinois. We have 18 representatives in Congress. At least our rep is from somewhere close to us. Could you imagine being in a state like Wyoming that has only 1 Representative for the entire state? How would you like to try to get your rep to do something for you in your town when he is from a town 500 miles away?
Bill H
12:46 pm on Friday, November 9, 2012
How can you say we are lucky in Illinois? This state is bankrupt. I own a small business and you would not believe the unemployment charges they keep trying to throw at us. We have never unemployed anyone unless they were fired for stealing. It has cost us thousands in fighting unfair charges by State government. As a job provider in this state we are ready to call it quits. After paying more than 1.5 million in taxes and having our income decrease 5% we can no longer afford to keep our doors open. Take a look around. We hung in there longer than most but it cost us dearly. To many takers in this state. Not enough makers or givers. It will get worse, then what? Crime will be on the rise just to survive. But those who voted for it will get what they asked for.
Good luck.

I meant a 50% decrease in personal profit above. Cant provide jobs when you cannot make payroll. Thanks Illinois.
Dave Wagner
2:37 pm on Friday, November 9, 2012
Freddie - the last name thing is a cop out. Big business provides the jobs that are necessary. Do you know tha Big Business pays for half of the FICA, and people like me that are in business for themselves pay DOUBLE what employees pay? Where do you think the government gets the money to help the downtrodden and the poor? I'm sure you are smart enough to know they just can't print all they want. Keep raising taxes on the people that provide jobs and sooner or later there won't be enough of them to pay the bill. Give the opportunity to work to most people and you have more kicking into the government. None of this happens overnight. But if you are going to paint all the republicans with the same brush you are showing a certain narrow-mindedness that I don't think you realize.
Dave Wagner
2:37 pm on Friday, November 9, 2012
I said that BOTH are to blame for the problems. I didn't mention that the Democrats have had control of most major cities for years (Detroit, early 60's, Chicago before that, LA and NY about then, etc.) and Illinois in general for nearly 30 years. despite the occasional goveror. How good of a job have thet done? How many businesses have left Illinois and taken jobs with them to other states? Do your homework. Raising taxes is not always the answer. And giving people free stuff for generations is a long slow path to HUGE problems. I have no illusions about the motivations of most politicians. We all know their 1st priority is to get re-elected. But I'd rather see a few people who provide 1000's of jobs get rich than see those same people unemployed and dependent on a bankrupt state and a soon to be bankrupt federal government.
Bill H
4:29 pm on Friday, November 9, 2012
I don't need to get rich. I would be happy to be comfortable and to be able to give more to my employees. The federal and state government led by the Democratic party has taken that decision out of our hands. Too much free stuff with no accountability. Our country is in distress. The sad part is we have a President that does not understand economics. You cannot spend your way out of debt. This was the most corrupt election ever, led by lies and deceitful reporting and adds. The cover up of Benghazi is going to be worse than Watergate if the lying media can be truthful and report without covering up for Obama. It is so strange that Petraus stepped down to avoid the hearings. He will be called to testify. I hope all the liars go to jail. From the top down. If this happened to a Republican the media would be handling this a whole different way. Where the hell is FEMA in NY and NJ? Obama got his photo opp and played Christie like a fiddle . Like I said before SHAMEFUL.

Learn the play book. Play by the rules. The South suburbs should band together and redraw the Cook County boundry so were no longer in, Cook county! Don't fight, educate. Like the Fire District. Why do we continue to have one? Why? What's the advantage? It's twice the cost, or more than a Fire Department. For no good reason. End it! A Fire department can be funded in any manner. The Fire district (a taxing body) can only tax you to death while they enjoy you clothing them, feeding them, housing them, building them a training school, etc. Sounds like raising your children only not quite as lavish. It doesn't have to be this way. You have the power (referendum) to end this mess. Just like any other mess. Use your rights. YOU are the Government.

You demons are STILL at it! Congressman Rush has been fighting, serving and sacrificing for the PEOPLE since before he was getting paid to do so! It is calling PASSION and PURPOSE! MayBe YOU ALL should find yours instead of HATING on this man. YOU ALL sound BITTER and RACIST! A bitter root just doest produce good fruit! You all should be ashamed of yourselves mentioning his sickness! To HELL w/ you cavemen!

On 23rd September David Harmer, the children's writer, visited Trinity to deliver an Able Writers' Day. In total, thirty-four students from five of our feeder primary schools and Trinity enjoyed listening to David perform his work, and then were inspired to write for themselves.
Previous | Next
Able Writers' Day
David has published many collections of poetry, and he lectures in Creative Writing at Sheffield Hallam. He gave the students a firm structure to start their writing, and then lots of encouragement in the writing process. He was fun to listen to but also constructive and challenging in his comments on the writing.
When finished, excerpts of the Trinity students' writing will be online for all to read. Watch this space!
Thanks must go to David for a great workshop, and to the primaries for sparing their students and staff. They were a credit to their teachers and hopefully will spread the good practice back in their schools.
