Adapted from a recent online discussion.
Dear Carolyn:
My husband and I fight about food, constantly. I grew up with fresh food. He grew up with chips and a candy bar as an integral part of every meal.
It wasn't a big deal when we first got together, but I've since changed a lot (vegetarian, but I'll cook meat for him), and he believes he's the one making all of the compromises. That's true, but since they're for health reasons, I think he should do it and stick around another 50 to 70 years.
Oh, and our young kids are now VERY aware of what's on Daddy's plate vs. theirs.
I know I'm being a pain, too, but I'm sick and tired of Husband complaining about what I'm cooking, and the kids screaming for what's on Daddy's plate. I don't have the energy to make two dinners every night. Any suggestions? Both of us are at healthy weights but have a lot of diseases in our families that are helped by healthy diets.
Food Fight
How about a deal: You back off on the crap he eats, and he doesn't eat it around the kids.
That leaves the problem's roots intact, but since your husband apparently doesn't buy into healthy examples for children (!), you have to anticipate his being too far gone to accept reason. So, surface will have to do — and if you must settle for one goal, your kids' relationship with food is the best one.
Re: Food fight:
Let me get this straight: Wife didn't have an issue with Hubby's diet before, he's at a "healthy weight," she's (now) a vegetarian, and he's the one who's "too far gone"?
I applaud you for "allowing" hubby to eat what he wants, but Wife seems to have pulled a bait-and-switch. I would have thought you'd tell him to cook his own meals — and let her cook for herself and the kids.
Anonymous 1
Sure, if it were about meat. But chips and candy bars?
The arrival of kids trumps any bait-and-switch. Plenty of people grant an adult the right to [bad habit], and even marry that adult knowing [bad habit] comes in the package. But when kids arrive, so do new priorities. [Bad habit] is now a terrible, potentially harmful example for the kids — so adult has to either shape up or take [bad habit] outside.
If his bad habit were smoking, I doubt you'd be crying "bait-and-switch."
Re: Food Fight:
A piece of chicken with some veggies can also be a pretty healthy meal. I'm surprised you did not call her out for being a domineering, sanctimonious bully.
Anonymous 2
When the kids clamor for what's on Daddy's plate, it's safe to conclude it's not chicken and veggies, ya?
Re: Food Fight:
Wow, this could have been me. We finally resolved it this way: Mom cooks one menu for everyone. Anyone may refuse food, but no complaints allowed. If you don't like it, don't eat it and wait till the next meal. Dad can eat what he wants, in private, if he buys it for himself, or he can cook a square meal of his choosing, any time. It was a fair deal, and eventually he came around.

Venus and Serena Williams are without question the poster children for Olympic tennis.
The sisters guaranteed that they would both become the most decorated U.S. tennis Olympians in history with four medals with their 7-5, 6-4 semifinal win Saturday over Maria Kirilenko and Nadia Petrova of Russia at the All England Club at Wimbledon.
Prior to the 2012 Olympics, Mary Joe Fernandez and Vincent Richards were tied with Venus Williams with three total medals. Fernandez, the 2012 U.S. women's Olympic coach, won two gold medals in women's doubles in 1992 and 1996 (with Gigi Fernandez) and she also won bronze in singles in 1992. Vincent Richards won three medals at the 1924 Olympics – gold in singles and doubles and silver in mixed doubles.
The Williams sisters have each won two doubles gold (2000, 2008) and each have a singles gold medal (Venus in 2000, Serena in 2012) and now they are guaranteed at least another silver in women's doubles, giving them a total four total medals. If they win gold in women's doubles Sunday against the Czech team of Andrea Hlavackova and Lucie Hradecka, they will become the first tennis players in history from any country to win four gold medals. Only Kitty McKane of Britain, who won one gold, two silver and two bronze medals for five medals total, has won more Olympic medals than the Williams sisters. They are to Olympic tennis what Michael Phelps is to Olympic swimming.
In men's doubles, another set of siblings – Bob and Mike Bryan – won Olympic gold in the men's doubles for the United States, winning their second Olympic medal as an upgrade from the bronze medal won at the 2008 Beijing Games. The identical twins defeated the French team of Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Michael Llodra 6-4, 7-6 (2). The win also completed a "Career Golden Grand Slam" for the twins, who have also won five Australian Open, one French Open, two Wimbledon and three US Open titles in men's doubles. Julien Benneteau and Richard Gasquet won bronze, also for France, defeating Feliciano Lopez and David Ferrer of Spain 7-6 (4), 6-2.
In mixed doubles, Britain's Andy Murray and Laura Robson continued a magical run through the mixed doubles tournament, reaching the final with two victories in decisive match tie-breakers on Saturday. The British duo beat the Australian pair of Lleyton Hewitt and Sam Stosur 6-3, 3-6, (10-8) and then the German pair of Chris Kas and Sabine Lisicki 6-,1, 6-7 (7), (10-7). They will face the No. 1 seeds Victoria Azarenka and Max Mirnyi of Belarus in Sunday's final. Murray will be guaranteed of two medals as he also plays Roger Federer in the men's singles gold medal match Sunday.
This year marked the return of the mixed doubles competition to the Olympic fold after an absence of 88 years. Tennis as a whole was absent for 64 years from the Olympic program from 1924 to 1988, but was one of the original sports played at the first modern Games in 1896.

Top tennis world not as glamorous as it seems
Ana Ivanovic will take on Katarina Srebotnik of Slovenia today.
Photo: Vince Caligiuri
I HATE to shatter everyone's illusions, but I can reveal that being a professional tennis player isn't half as glamorous as it may seem. I am extremely lucky to be doing what I love and I enjoy many benefits off the court, but for me by far the most enjoyable thing is competing.
If you look through the WTA Tour player guide, or the ATP version for that matter, you will see that most players list "shopping", "listening to music" and "watching DVDs" as their interests it's pretty boring, I know, but it's true. The work I do on court is very intense and very tiring. Then there are off-court responsibilities, such as promotions and interviews. I try to devote myself fully to each activity and because of this, I like to relax as much as possible during my "rest days" such as yesterday.
I had practice at midday, lunch on-site then returned to my hotel. I relaxed by watching Prison Break and watching the Nadal-Simon match. I'm really living it up, huh?
It's not just a case of needing to rest physically in order to be in peak shape for my matches; the mental energy required for a three-set match is tremendous.
I admit that occasionally my focus can wander, but it's not very often, and when it does I pinch myself to regain concentration. A match situation is intense, and you must focus completely on what you are doing, even during the change of ends.
Every player is different and have to find their triggers to focus properly. I think about my footwork "Am I going around the ball or going straight to it?" and I ask myself: "Am I watching the ball closely enough?" Obviously that takes a lot out of you mentally, and after a tough three-set match I sometimes find myself completely empty.
Shopping is one of my favourite things, but I always save that until after the tournament. As all women know, you need lots of energy for a proper shopping trip, and I can't afford to waste that while I'm still involved in competition.
Even something like sightseeing can be energy sapping, so I also save that for after the tournament. It's tempting to do something fun on a rest day, but basically I am here to try to win the tournament and I will do everything possible to maximise my chances.
At the US Open in New York last year, my favourite thing to on off-days was to visit book shops. I would relax with a coffee and a book.
During the off-season I was able to do a few more exciting things, for example I attended a film premiere, went to a soccer match in London, and had a big birthday party in Belgrade.
Of course, if I was playing doubles I would have less time to recover and relax between singles matches. That is why I stopped playing. It was a lot of fun, but it means that you don't have proper rest days.
Most of the highly ranked singles players take doubles less seriously. They see it as something fun and a nice change to singles. Even arranging who to play with is quite informal.
Often you will receive a text message from a player a few weeks before a tournament. The tour even has an online list you can sign up to if you are looking for a new partner.
Ana Ivanovic is No. 3 on the WTA Tour world rankings. A donation to UNICEF charities has been made for this column.

Before we get to to the topic of these yummy little bites.. Have you entered the $300 Target Gift Card Giveaway yet? If you are already a fan of The Well Floured Kitchen, you can earn a free entry!
After a cold rainy spring thus far, it's finally warm here in the Northeast! Just in time for Memorial Day. And do you know what that means? Berries, Berries and more Berries! Bring on the healthy! We can finally relax and enjoy these superfoods without breaking the bank.
Raspberries have that cute little pocket and it is just screaming to be filled up. Plus it makes the snack a little more filling, since a little half pint only goes so far. Whipping the cream cheese makes it soft and fluffy and easy to pipe into the berries. Oh and did I mention there are walnuts in the filling- a bit of crunch and healthy to boot.
The way I remember the P in this little berry is to always use the phonetic pronunciation. So if you come for a visit, you may be offered some raspberries. Perhaps on a Wednesday. That concludes my spelling tips for the day. How were you taught?
I originally intended to post these as frozen honey cream cheese stuffed raspberry bites, but we enjoyed them so much fresh that I had to share it this way. However on a hot summer day, don't hesitate to pop them in the freezer for an icy cold treat.
- 1/2 Pint Raspberries
- 4 Oz Cream Cheese, softened
- 1 Tablespoon Walnuts, Finely Chopped (Optional)
- 1 Tablespoon Honey
- Beat cream cheese and honey until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Mix in walnuts. Place mixture into a small ziploc bag and snip the corner. Pipe into raspberries.

By Dave "D-Struction" Sturchio
The winter storm to kick off 2017 didn't stop WrestlePro from putting on their first show of the year. WrestlePro was a massive success in its first year of 2016 and continued the momentum heading towards its massive role in "WrestleCon" 2017 in Orlando at the end of March.
Match 1: CPA vs Habib – Round 2!
In a rematch from November's "Final Deletion" where it found CPA to be the victor, Habib was granted the rematch he wanted. This match started off with a battle for Habib's famous squirt bottle ending in a few key sprays leading up to CPA taking control early. CPA showed more agility once again by performing more unassisted rolls in the middle of the ring to the confusion of Habib. The mind games started early. The tide turned quickly when Habib hit his patented spinning wheel quick and sent CPA to the mat. Just when we thought Habib had the match in hand using his speed and agility, CPA found his opening again to try his famous top rope (and quickly turned middle rope) splash but couldn't connect. Habib takes advantage of a reeling CPA for a roll up 1-2-3. This series is tied at 1 and the rubber match will take place.
Winner: Habib!
Match 2: The Beach Bums vs Team Espanikos w/ Coach D
The last we saw Team Espanikos they were continuing their winning ways with a huge upset victory over Reality Check. On that night also, we thought we saw the last of Coach D, as he was on the receiving end of Kevin Matthew's "Ego Driver" that practically broke Coach D in half. We were wrong! Coach D lead his red hot team down to the ring to take on one of our rookie Trios teams of the Beach Bums! I think we were all caught off guard by the teamwork and fire used immediately by the Bums. We also saw a 3 way "surfs up" style maneuver that had the Union crowd fully invested and behind the Bums! As expected, though, Team Espanikos turned the tide and reminded all of us why they've been on such a winning streak. Jose A and Jose B have gelled since their start at WrestlePro but the addition of the vicious Nikos Rikos has really upped these three's game. Team Espanikos was in full control for the majority of this match. Once both teams found themselves on the mat, in came TJ with the hot tag and just sitting at ring side I could see a massive improvement from this kid in just a few months time! Just when we thought Freddy IV and his Bums had Union ready for an upset, a quick distraction by the diabolical Coach D gave Jose A the opportunity to hit the one of the bums with a LOADED PLAYBOOK! Team Esapanikos steals one here and continues their winning ways!
Winners: Team Espanikos
** We were then greeted by WrestlePro owner Pat Buck. Buck came out to address the crowd about what had transpired at "Final Deletion" with Dan Maff exploding on WrestlePro security and our very own ring girl. Before Buck can get into detail he was interrupted by Shining Edward Jackson and the EJ5. Ed goes on to tell Buck that the WrestlePro Tag Team Champions (RyBuck) hadn't defended their tag belts in over 100 days! Eddie knew that Ryback wasn't in the building and told Buck he had to be the "stand up owner he is" and give the Heavenly Bodies their rematch TONIGHT! Out came Create-A-Pro New York's own Kip Stevens! Kip said he was sorry to interrupt but wanted to throw his name out there to support Buck and name himself his tag team partner to defend the tag team belts. While Buck respected the offer, he told Kip that if he could defeat Buster Jackson in the next match, that he would be a suitable teammate!**
Match 3: Buster Jackson vs Kip Stevens
One guy who has really made a full reversal in luck since joining the EJ5 is Eddie's nephew Buster Jackson. He's added size and even more quickness and agility to his game that he already had previously. He came out swinging early and thought to make quick work of Kip. A back and forth effort by both competitors here but leave it up to Shining Edward Jackson to pull Kip's feet from under him while attempting a suplex and helped Buster get the victory 1-2-3. In Kip losing, Buck had til the end of the night to find a suitable partner to defend the WrestlePro tag team titles.
Winner: Buster Jackson
Match 4: Dirty & Durable (Donovan and Blake) vs Amazing Grayson's
Donovan and Blake, under a new name, gear, and apparently attitude cut a promo prior to the match saying that 2017 was going to be a new and better year for the seasoned vets. The Amazing Grayson's came out to change that fortune quickly. The WrestlePro tag team division was greeted by a fresh team (Grayson's) and they showed pretty quickly that their not to be taken lightly. One thing is for sure; the statement that D&D made prior to the match was taken VERY seriously early on as both Donovan and Blake showed a viscous side we haven't seen from these two. For the Grayson's, however, their speed and youth helped them in the early going but eventually they ran out of steam. Towards the end of the match the Union crowd was behind these young Grayson's but unfortunately for them, the tag team experience of Blake and Donovan showed as a quick distraction was all it took for Donovan to hit a HUGE spinning sit out Power Bomb for the victory.
Winners: Dirty and Durable
Match 5: Johnny Clash vs Swoggle
Johnny Clash didn't have the greatest 2016 in singles competition. In fact, he didn't win one, one on one matchup. The only taste of victory he experienced was when he tagged up with former DX/nWo member, X-pac. Clash grabbed the mic from David Adams and said it was time for that to either change, or it was time for him to go. He said that if he couldn't defeat Swoggle on this night that he would retire from wrestling. Swoggle came to the ring to a massive roar from the Union crowd and used that momentum in the match that lasted all of about 25 seconds. Swoggle hits the tadpole splash for the 1-2-3! Bye Bye , Johnny.
Winner: Swoggle!
**Prior to the match, Mario Bokara was announced as the special guest time keeper**
Match 6: Fatal 4 Way- Chris Payne vs Lio Rush vs Joe Keys vs Delroy Alexander
This match was fantastic. We saw the debut of Lio Rush and he was out to prove that the hype was real, and well, it was. Payne and Delroy separated themselves at first inside the ring as Keys and Rush chased each other around the ring early on. Lio Rush was showing the type of speed that WrestlePro hasn't seen yet. A very innovative offense for sure but just as we thought his speed was going to catch everyone by storm, Chris Payne made sure he welcomed Rush in the only way he knows how, and that's catching the lighter star on one of his dives and slamming him into the ring post! Chris Payne showed some new innovative offense of his own and showed even more aggression than we've seen in prior months to the satisfaction of one Edward Jackson on the outside. Don't forget about Delroy! In previous months, we've seen "The Black Stallion" in some seriously hard fought matches against Bokara and Colt Cabana. Delroy showed more power and promise in this match than he did in his previous two. He hit a huge spine buster on Payne that I'm pretty sure he's still feeling today, days later. Payne then found himself in control again and hit a HUGE torture-rack type spinning bomb on Lio Rush. It's as if Payne was out to make a statement heading towards some bigger events in the next coming months.. But, as Payne and Delroy took themselves out of the ring, Lio Rush was able to take advantage of the one on one with Joe Keys and his a massive spin out powerbomb for the win!
Winner: Lio Rush
**After the Match**
Mario Bokara left the time keeping table and entered the ring to introduce himself to Lio Rush and congratulate him. Surprisingly, Rush tried to brush off Bokara. Mario wasn't having this. He spun Rush around to try and confront him about his blatant disrespect. Rush and Bokara went face to face in which in turned into an all out brawl. Ring security had to separate the two in which Mario continued to yell "NOW YOU KNOW ME!". Immediately following this; WrestlePro announced that Mario's one on one match vs Cody Rhodes has now been turned into a triple threat with LIO RUSH!
** In Ring Segment**
Dave D-Struction entered the ring to fill the Union crowd in on what had transpired with Anthony Bowens down at NXT. He directed the attention of the audience to the screen where they re-lived what had occurred. Dave then announced Anthony Bowens to the crowd and he was greeted by a huge standing ovation. Bowens went on to say that he did indeed suffer a severe concussion at the hands of the NXT talent and he was still not medically cleared to participate in any in ring wrestling. He did however issue two challenges (That have now officially been signed) for February 10th at the Starland Ballroom vs Chris Avery Queling and February 11th in Brooklyn, New York for the WrestlePro heavyweight championship in his arch rival, Bobby Wayward in his title rematch! From there, Wayward made his way to the ring shouting at Bowens and taking his focus away from the entrance way. Out ran Chris Avery Queling from the back and completely clobbered Bowens with his devastating left armed lariat to the back of a concussed Bowens knocking him out cold. Wayward instructed the ringside security to remove Bowens from the arena and they followed the orders leading us into our WrestlePro championship match of the night…
Match 7: WrestlePro Championship Match- Bobby Wayward © vs Sonjay Dutt vs Alex Reynolds
Sonjay Dutt came out hot to start this one. His ring experience alone made him a favorite to win this match and shock the Union crowd. Wayward eventually cut off this steam and heard it from the crowd. Wayward was proving to everyone why he was voted, 2016's most hated wrestler of WrestlePro. Alex Reynolds who was making his return to the WrestlePro ring showed why he is also a former heavyweight champion on the independents. Alex was hitting Wayward and Dutt with everything he had in his move-set and at one point worked WITH Dutt to try and take out the champion. Just as we thought that Alex Reynolds was set to make the shock and upset of the night, out came the same referee from "Final Deletion" ! This referee pulled out senior referee Keenan and shoved him to the ground. Alex had the match won and Bobby's shoulders to the mat for the 1…2… It Happened again! This slimey referee looked at the time keeper's table and said that Wayward had gotten the shoulder up! Clearly it didn't! Reynolds quickly realized something fishy was going on and tried to corner the ref. Wayward made his way up and shoved Reynolds into Dutt to take him out of the ring and then rolled up Alex for the fastest 3 count of the night! Wayward steals ANOTHER one!
Winner: AND STILL, WrestlePro champion: Bobby Wayward
Match 8: Beatrice the Barbie Killer vs Nikki Adams
Beatrice definitely caught the Union crowd off guard by her slow and somber entrance to the ring in which she was carrying a dolls head and had the audience very uneasy. Nikki Adams came out quick like a house of fire and started her WrestlePro debut off hot! Beatrice tried to retreat several times to the outside but the ring veteran, Adams, followed and caught up to her a few times. Beatrice, though, wanted and needed to make her impact on the women's division and delivered a massive power bomb to try and regain control of the match and surprisingly enough, Beatrice hit a massive innovative back breaker for the upset!
Winner: Beatrice The Barbie Killer
Match 9: Apple Corps vs Taboo Crew w/ Gino Gotz
We've seen a lot of crazy things in this night already but what Union, NJ was not ready for was the IN RING WRESTLING debut of GINO GOTZ! Early on in this match, Micah Jenkins and Valerio Lamorte started off with some chain wrestling. Both of these guys continue to impress month after month. On paper, Matt Macintosh's boys had this match in their favor as we didn't know what to expect out of Gotz. Macintosh showed his aggressive side again as he's stated time and time again he was tired of the over the top gimmicks of WrestlePro. Something I can say about the Apple Corps is that in just a few months of working as a team, they have gelled completely and are to be taken very serious in 2017. Just as we thought Craig was going to get the hot tag in, Gino put his hand in front of Craig's and tried to get in there and show what he had! Which in turn, well, wasn't much as he found himself on the receiving end of a few tough moves. Just when Macintosh and his corps thought they had the match in hand, Macintosh was once AGAIN distracted by Hot Dog Starkes who had appeared in the crowd. Macintosh had enough as he hopped into the masses and made their way to a different area of the arena and The Taboo Crew took full advantage and hit's the Taboo Driver! Craig then takes a lifeless Gotz and puts him on top, 1-2-3! Scoring the pinfall, GINO GOTZ!
Winners: The Taboo Crew
Match 10: Matt Striker vs Fallah Bahh
This match, to me, was one of the more entertaining of the night. Two COMPLETELY different styles of wrestling here had clashed. Fallah was having a lot of fun with the crowd and had them all chanting along, "Bah! Bah! Bah!" and it completely caught Striker off guard. After a big corner splash miss, Striker, being the smarter of the two took advantage of this opening and tried working on the big man's leg. Fallah eventually regained his balance and hit Striker with a huge "E. Honda" like striking combo sending Striker to the mat. Fallah then told the crowd he was going to bring Striker back to the "WWE" in which he then a 5-Bah-uckle-Shuffle, a R-K-Bah out of nowhere, and capped it off by telling Striker to "Bah it!" and hit a massive Bah-digree! 1-2-3!
Your Winner: Fallah Bahh
Match 11: Bear Bronson vs Beefcake Charlie w/ Jay Enterprise
The night was full of great wrestling, fast wrestling, and funny wrestling. However in this match, it was time to add the POWER wrestling to the recipe for a successful night. Bear Bronson has come into WrestlePro and has quickly turned a lot of heads. Beefcake came out to the familiar "Aesthetic Males" theme song and his fun loving self had the crowd clapping along once again. This match went back and forth. It was hard to move each other as both were complete forces. Just when Beefcake thought he saw a wide open opportunity to hit his huge second rope moonsault (In which he missed prior in the match), we saw the shocker of the night! Jay Enterprise struck beefcake with a shovel that he had brought out in his entrance and knocked the big man off the second turnbuckle and Bronson took advantage for the 1-2-3. Why did Jay Enterprise do this? Poor Beefcake was left lifeless in the ring.
Winner: Bear Bronson
Match 12: MAIN EVENT! WrestlePro Tag Team Championship Match: Buck and ??? © vs. Heavenly Bodies
The Heavenly Bodies were set to go in their entitled rematch for the tag team titles as they entered first and awaited Buck's entrance. Pat came out first holding both tag team titles and pointed to the entrance as out came KEVIN MATTHEWS! Kevin and Pat being best friends outside of WrestlePro, everyone was very excited to see that Buck had found a very suitable tag team partner to defend the belts. Kevin then said to make things interesting, Buck & Matthews made this a NO DISQUALIFICATION Match! This match quickly turned brutal! Kevin and Justin were the first to leave the ringside area and made their way through the crowd. Kevin used every weapon at his disposal and then even encouraged fans to throw their garbage on a down Gigolo Justin. In the ring, for a brief moment before joining the outside action, Buck and Dustin went back and forth with each other. After about 5 minutes on the outside and Buck and Matthews in firm control brought back the Bodies to finish them off inside the ring. Just when we thought we were going to see the champions retain, out came DAN MAFF! Maff Cleared house! He hit a huge cannon ball in the corner on Kevin Matthews and then handcuffed him to the bottom rope taking him out of the match! Maff then grabbed Buck and launched him onto his shoulders and hit a HUGE Burning Hammer and yelled to the owner, "I DID THIS TO YOU!". He pulled Justin on top of Buck, Kevin was restrained and couldn't do anything to help even if he wanted to! 1-2-3! WE HAVE NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!
Winners: AND NEW! WresltePro Tag Team Champions, Once again, THE HEAVENLY BODIES!
** After the match Buck grabbed a microphone and apologized to the Union crowd for not sending them home happy. He went on to say he doesn't know why things have been happening as of late but issued a massive challenge for the Starland Ballroom. He told Dan Maff to find ANY PARTNER OF HIS CHOOSING to take on himself and KEVIN MATTHEWS! **
What a night of action. We want to thank those who attended this show in the middle of a small snow storm and look forward to hosting our WrestlePro fans on February 10th at the Starland Ballroom, February 11th in Brooklyn, New York! Til Next Time!

Re: Uncanny Avengers 4
Good question; I don't know if the "current day" ever caught up to that. And since Remender isn't writing the book any more, I wonder if that will ever be followed up on?
It may end up being a divergent future, but who knows?

After opening Firefox and going to YouTube to test Flash, I noticed that Firefox was not recnogizing the Flash installation from kubuntu-restricted-extras. It prompted me to install it from within the browser, which I did. After that, YouTube videos started working; they are, however, choppy. In addition, websites are recnogizing the installation as an outdated version of Flash; which means I cannot watch embedded YouTube videos (among other things). I have verified that flashplugin-installer is installed. This happens in every browser I have tested it in. Does anybody know what's going on?

Wiretap Evidence Leads Chicago Pimps to Plead Guilty
Image by Ira Gelb at Flickr Commons
10 people recently pled guilty to trafficking 16 girls in Chicago. This case broke in 2011, never went to trial, and the last of the offenders only recently pled guilty.
The pimps didn't really see another option, considering there was video evidence against them. There was also an audio recording of one of them whipping a victim with his belt.
All this recorded evidence was due to a wiretap investigation. Actually, Cook County State's Attorney Anita Alvarez called this the first wiretap Illinois-based investigation. (I assume she means the first wiretap investigation against traffickers. I can't imagine it's the first time Illinois has used wiretap as evidence in general.)
It's a new approach to taking down traffickers—one that wouldn't have been possible a few years ago due to previous laws.
In the past—up until 2010—the wiretap evidence wouldn't have been allowed.
So in the past, the victims would have been asked to testify in court against their traffickers. It's notoriously difficult to get victims to testify against their pimps.
Why is that? Why wouldn't a victim want to testify against the person who sold her and abused her multiple times a day? The process of victimization entails a lot of psychological breakdown that can leave a victim fearful of her pimp, yet reliant on him for things like food and shelter. And what if she's afraid he won't actually wind up in prison, or won't be there for that long? If she speaks against him, and he goes free, then he'll come after her.
Psychological trauma and brainwashing like this has even led to cases of victims testifying FOR their pimps, in the pimps' defense.
The girls who were trafficked ranged in age from 13 to 19.
According to an article in the Chicago Tribune, the pimps physically and mentally abused the girls regularly, threatening them with death, beating them, tattooing them (pimps often tattoo girls with marks of ownership, like brands), and locking them in car trunks for hours to drive around Chicago. The pimps took all the money after sex encounters.
This kind of treatment sounds pretty standard, from the research I've done on sex trafficking. (It's a common misconception that pimps split money with "prostitutes"—and these girls were not prostitutes, they were trafficking victims. Part of the process of psychological breakdown entails dehumanizing the girls and taking away all their resources.)
In some of the video footage, one of the girls is seen bowing to three of the men who sold her on a street in Chicago's West Side.
Without the wiretap evidence, "We would have expected these young women to testify against these guys," Alvarez said. "I think we can all understand why that wasn't an easy thing to do, and why, many times, they refused to testify."
But with the wiretap evidence, it was a different story. The pimps saw the evidence prosecutors had against them, which would be used in court, and took their best option: pleading guilty to aggravated trafficking in persons.
All of the offenders were convicted and sentenced to prison time between 6 and 20 years.
At a news conference at her downtown Chicago office, Alvarez said, "Our goal is to make these cases victim-centered rather than victim-built."
To read more about this case, check out the Chicago Tribune article.

In Support of Recreational Hunting & Fishing on Federal Lands
As a supporter of gun rights and recreational hunting and fishing, I am pleased to cosponsor HR 1825, the "Recreational Fishing & Hunting Heritage Opportunities Act of 2013". This bill requires land managers at the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management to facilitate use and access for hunting, fishing, and recreational shooting activities on federal lands, making access easier for the sportsmen in the 1st District of Oklahoma. The bill, however, does not include National Park lands as hunting grounds.
This bill eliminates the red tape that sportsmen encounter, often needlessly. As an Eagle Scout, I know the value of the great outdoors for building character and teaching skills to our young people. The federal government should open up its vast tracks of lands to sportsmen consistent with public safety. The outpouring of support for this bill among my colleagues is encouraging, and I hope it passes the House swiftly.
HR 1825 has the support of many outdoors and sportsmen's organizations, including the Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation, Ducks Unlimited, National Rifle Association, Rocky Mountain Elk Association, Ruffed Grouse Society, Safari Club International, the U.S. Sportsmen's Alliance, and many more. Sportsmen across the country would be thrilled with the passage of this legislation.

By Tahanyee Clendinen, A&E Writer
An exhibition of paintings by famous artist David Roholt provoked a strong and positive reaction from the crowd during the gallery opening Oct. 17.
Originally from Salt Lake City, David Roholt's work has catapulted him into worldwide fame. According to his website, http://davidroholt.com, "he has been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Canada, Denmark, England, Germany, Nicaragua, South Korea, and the United States."
"The atmosphere is very opinionated," sophomore Katie Wentzel said. "The art is very expressive."
Roholt's art consists of bright colors and harsh lines. Some paintings feature sizzling oranges and reds as the main focal point. Others have sultry, yet calming blues and purples.
The subject of his paintings, however, is not always immediately clear. Roholt's art dwells on a blurred line between appreciating the abstractness of art and embracing the modern use of color and lines.
"I like the abstract qualities of his paintings" sophomore Jessica Guns said. "He uses a lot of color and texture in his art."
Other students at the gallery opening appeared to enjoy Roholt's art as well.
"The art is very modern and provokes a lot of communication," sophomore Alexandra Steves said.
During the opening, there were many active and spirited debates all over the room. People zoomed from painting to painting with their views plastered all over their faces. From jubilant smiles to scowls, the communication came from all directions in every form.
All in all, Roholt's gallery wasn't a typical stuffed shirt event. There was room for discussion, laughter and the art seemed to motivate sincere emotion in its audience. Roholt's exhibition is available for viewing from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. and will run in Ingram Hall's University Gallery until Nov. 13.

This presentation was given by Betty McGrath, a social research executive in the North Carolina Department of Commerce's Labor and Economic Analysis Division. She gave the presentation at the Forum on New Jersey's Education, Higher Education, and Workforce P20W Longitudinal Data System on December 1-2, 2016 in New Brunswick, New Jersey.
The forum convened a wide range of national and state experts and policymakers as well as New Jersey K-12 educators, postsecondary educators, workforce development and labor representatives, civic and nonprofit organizations, legislators, business leaders, members of the philanthropic community, and researchers to mark the public launch of New Jersey's P20W State Longitudinal Data System. Attendees heard presentations and shared their perspectives on how educators, policymakers, and qualified researchers can use state administrative longitudinal data to enhance state policy-making and program evaluation.

A few weeks ago, I took my grandson to visit someone, and the person asked him the typical questions that one asks a 4 year old: Who is your teacher? What is your favorite color? How old are you? etc.
Nothing unusual about the conversation; in fact it was a very charming conversation, one that both child and adult (and those watching) enjoyed.
Until my grandson decided to cut the interview short. His response to one particular question (a question which I don't remember specifically), was "I'm not telling."
That was it. Case closed. Dialogue ended. He didn't want to "tell." Was it a secret? Maybe, maybe not. But as far as he was concerned, the conversation was over. He wasn't telling. Okay?
I have a hard time saying the above words; I tend to be very open and honest. Someone could ask me a question that I find inappropriate, but before I give myself a chance to process the question as "rude," "NTB" (not their business), or just plain worthy of not answering, I blurt out something that satisfies them.
And later I regret it. Usually the question is not necessarily a personal one . In fact, it could be a very innocent question, but still one that produces that uncomfortable feeling in my stomach, signalling to me to keep quiet, and to change the subject.
And often, I don't heed that signal.
Recently, I had a more satisfying experience with this issue; an acquaintance asked me a question regarding one of my children. The truth was I didn't even know the answer. All of my children are adults and make their own decisions about certain matters. I tried telling the person that I don't know the answer. But the person would not relent. I tried changing the subject. Didn't work.
And then it hit me to say the following:
"Hey, good question – why don't you ask him?" (referring to my son).
That worked. My questioner backed off. (Whew). She wasn't interested in calling my son up and getting her answer. She just wanted to discuss it with me. And I was not interested in going there.
I guess I'm getting better at following the lessons of my grandson – I am learning to convey in one way or another that although I may be an open person to some extent, there is a limit (I hope!)
Whether I use what I heard termed as "non-talk" (basically information that doesn't really answer the question, but is nevertheless polite), or whether I use simply the phrase, "Hey, I'm not comfortable talking about that," discretion is always a good thing.
Just because I am part of what is called the "sandwich generation" – does not mean I have to be privy to every detail of the people around me. Thankfully, I am (usually!) aware of that.
I guess there is nothing more to say on this post. Shhhhhhh.

In recent elections which were held on February 18, 2008, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has emerged as the largest party with highest number of seats in the National Assembly. Pakistan Muslim League of Nawaz Sharif (Nawaz League) is the second largest party in the Assembly. In the beginning Nawaz Sharif openly said that his party will boycott the election. The reason he gave was that elections will be rigged. Peoples Party had also some revservations but decided to participate in the elecions. When Nawaz Sharif saw the situation going into favor of PPP he immediately took a u-turn and said will participate in the elections but they know the elections will be rigged in favor of Pakistan Muslim League Quaid-e-Azam (PMLQ). So much so that Nawaz Sharif himslef, Shahbaz Sharif his brother, Iqbal Hasan and Chaudry Nisar openly and repeatedly said naming the persons, places and times about the plans going on for rigging the elections. And they continued all the way upto February 18, 2008. Even in the early hours when election results were compiled.
My interpretation is that:
Nawaz Sharif and his party were not expecting that they will win to such a landslide.
So they were making a lot of noise about rigging.
Preparing ground for agitation at a later stage.
Other parties namely, Jamat e Islami and Imran Khan etc were also playing the same tune.
Now the question is:
There is no doubt that PMLQ has done a lot of development work. Absolutely clear.
Todays' problems of shortage of electricity for example, stem from the Nawaz Sharif and Benazir era
Nawaz Sharif was outside the country for 7 years. Pakistani nation knows he is a convicted person (that is why his nomination papers were rejected). He also lied openly when he said there is agreement of his pardon deal. Everybody knows about that.
Benazir was out of the country for 8 years. Zardari was allowed to leave the country out of a deal Benazir and Nawaz Sharif when they were out of Pakistan they behavior was anti-Pakistan.
Why the Pakistani nation elected them. That is the discussion point for today.
You can write your comments in the comments section or you can record your comments in Urdu or English.
Primary purpose of the discussion is to bring out what people think about their leaders and how they interpret the political situation. That will also show the maturity level of the nation.
Share with other people what you think.

I loved Mistys face when Ashs saw Giselles picture.. haha
what happened.
A nice episode, it had it's points. Giselle is pretty but she's very arrogant, I think she may be even more conceited than Jessie, glad to see Ash put her in her place. I would love to see Misty wearing one of the Pokemon Tech uniforms she'd look good in it. Nice to see Ash isn't totally oblivious to girls and that he likes them and look at Brock drooling over a younger girl. Anyone else notice that Pikachu's voice was different turns out it was being voiced by Rachael Lillis guess 4kids couldn't get good Japanese audio for this episode.
My Grandmother always said...

I loved this episode, showed that although there are stats, and levels, the anime prefers to fly its yasashi approach true to the end. Funny thinking Team Rocket attended this school, how would jessie afford it though? I like how Brock fits everything in his backpack, and is always totally prepared, and that Ash expects firewood to come out "here firewood!". That poor guy under the tree studying desperately to pass XP Joe was sweet, i wonder Cubone's head must be quite short since pikachu was able to spin the skull around. I always thought its head was similar to the skull shape, but i guess its more like a praire dog and those old cartoons with the cattle skull, resemblance. Anyway good episode, "A simulator is one thing, but this is real life!" good quote from Misty... yup :P
Friend code: 2148 9029 9595
This episode never appealed to me. Although, I love the part when Pikachu gets angry at the treadmill.
I've got nothing better to put in my sig, so I decided to put a bunch of Pikachu! Pikachu rocks!
I love this ep! Some good jokes on Brock's behalf, Misty saying "romantic", and a story that would put obsessive EV trainers to shame completely. I'm surprised this was invented before EVs. Misty's lines in this are amazing, I think. Joe was cute, I really want to ship him with someone, pronto. But not Misty. There's only one true love for Misty. <3
Its funny how they brought up levels in this episode and then pretty much not again. I agree with them not mentioning it anymore though, you don't need that aspect in a cartoon, just have the pokemon evolve after a period of time, as they did show later on.
Gisselle would be a good candidate to come back, great character.
from the first series this episode was one of the ones that i liked less, defending against school bullies is old in movies.
i wierd because they used levels and exp like in the game but i don't know how the trainers know what there pokemon levels and moves are.

Misty day dreaming about Paris only to be interupted by a japanese style slurping of green tea by Ash was done brilliantly, the over dramatic anger with large screaming heads and obvious statement of collapsing on the floor and cascades of worrriment on the side of the head, this stuff I miss, now we're lucky if Dawn farts and makes a facial reaction.
Bring back this style of animation I say!
rant over.
I saw this episode not too long ago, and I just have one thing to say; brilliant.
Pokemon Tech has been one of barely a handful of actual schools discussed in the Pokemon Universe, and with good reason. No other school-centric episode could live up to this one.
The episode had lots of awesome stuff: Pikachu running on a treadmill, Giselle, and lest we forget, great dialogue between Ash and Misty ("Stay out of this, Misty! I don't need your help!" "You're right, Ash. You know, it's pretty brave of you to take on all six guys at once. I'll be over here, on the sidelines, waiting to drag your carcass away...")
Oh, and I almost forgot. This is the only episode in which we have a definite (read: only) listing for girls that Ash finds attractive. Definitely a classic episode.
lord freeza i really need to use the space skype
As others are saying, this is a great, classic episode. Even if it is just a filler, it is probably one of the best examples of what Pokemon episodes used to be like.
lol this one is another with brocks humor that made me laugh out load, where joe shows ash misty and brock the picture of giselle and Brock says: She can violate my rights anytime lol Im sad that eric stuart doesn't do the voice acting for James and Brock anymore
The basic concept of this episode was interesting, though it was rather a disappointing debut for one of my very favourite pokemon. I tell ya, I'm in LOVE with Cubone. His voice, his design, his mannerisms...to me, he easily rates as one of the most interesting and endearing of all pokemon. I couldn't help but feel that this episode gave him something of a negative press. Being an opponent's pokemon is one thing, but it seemed as though Ash took particular exception to Cubone's attack methods - calling bonemerang a "dirty trick" and such. I really don't see how that attack is any more of a "dirty trick" than is Pika's zapping his opponents with Thundershock...both pokemon are simply using the attack methods which come naturally to them. If anything, some of Pikachu's tactics therein are more likely to be considered foul-play - twisting Cubone's helmet and such - since they do not conform to any recognised attacks. Of course, in a sport in which the objective is to beat your opponent senseless, it's difficult to judge what qualifies as foul-play and what doesn't.
EDIT: I assume that Cubone/Marowak's original character arc in the game was considered too dark for usage in the anime?

I was wondering, is this the only episode in the whole anime what mentions levels?
Of course, since I only followed the anime up until the latter half of Johto, I cannot vouch for the rest of the series.

This episode was always my favorite. For some reason, I really liked the Starmie/Weepinbell/Graveler battles...
I think this episode was good because it showed that if a pokemon is trained right, they can overcome type advantages.
But i feel sorry for Weepinbell

This ep was cool.^^ because I never heard it again about Pokemons levels. Some how the school kids were kinda annoying with that Pikachu couldn't do that attack because he was low leveled.
This episode is very good and special because you will see that Ash fall in love with a girl and is the first time that you will see this and maybe the last.
Even though I haven't seen this episode in a long time, I still loved watching it. Plus, this was the first episode that aired on my Birthday! Though, I cant quite remember what happened during that same day.
I though it was funny of Ash to ask Misty why they can get along like that. And Misty gets all mad. Ahhh...true love. (sort of)
This is the first episode to connect a pokemon battle to the games that gets forgotten sometime in Johto.
Giselle is one of my least favorite characters in the first season and is worst than Gary in bragging.

|METHOD OF PROCESSING A TRANSACTION FOR A PARKING SESSION - Methods of processing payment transactions associated with parking sessions and at least one parking related service. The payment transactions are between the parking supplier, for example, the owner or manager of a parking lot, and a payment provider, for example, a credit card company, on behalf of a user. The methods involve retrieving parking supplier information stored in a memory based on an identifier that defines the location of the parking session, and retrieving payment provider information stored in the memory based on an identifier that defines the user, and processing the transaction, where the amount or cost associated with the transaction is based on the duration of the parking session and whether the user opted to use the at least one parking related services.

ISS Said to Increase Dollar Portion of Loan Deal, Reduce Rate
ISS A/S, the world's biggest cleaning services provider, boosted the size and reduced the rate on the dollar portion of loans it's seeking to refinance debt, according to two people with knowledge of the matter.
The five-year term B portion is increased to $350 million from $300 million, while the interest paid was reduced to 275 basis points more than the London interbank offered rate from a range of 300 to 325 basis points proposed earlier this month, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the deal is private.
The debt, which will have a 1 percent floor on the benchmark lending rate, is priced at 99.75 cents on the dollar, the people said. The financing offers one-year soft-call protection of 101 cents, meaning the company would have to pay 1 cent more than face value to refinance the debt during the first year, they said.
A 330 million-euro ($427 million) five-year term loan A will pay interest of 350 basis points more than the euro interbank offered rate and is priced at 99.5 cents on the euro, the people said. A basis point is 0.01 percentage point.
Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Deutsche Bank AG, Nordea Bank AB and UBS AG, arrangers of the refinancing loans, plan to allocate the loans early next week, said the people.
Copenhagen-based ISS, owned by investors including Goldman Sachs Capital Partners and EQT Partners AB, is raising the debt to replace 600 million euros of second-lien loans. It has also received support from lenders for its request to amend and extend its existing debt as it prepares for an initial public offering, people said.
The company is also pushing back the maturities of loans maturing in December 2014 and April 2015 by three years, offering to pay an interest margin of 400 basis points on the extended portion, according to a company presentation.

BOSTON (MyFoxBoston.com) -- A new report suggests the Registry of Motor Vehicles has allowed so-called "immediate threats" back on the road.
A review by the Boston Herald claims "lax registry rules" have allowed drivers who were involved in fatal crashes back on the road.
The newspaper claims that the RMV revoked more than 1,400 licenses in 2012 from drivers who were dubbed "immediate threats" by law enforcement. They say the registry does not keep track of how many of those drivers apply to get their licenses back or are cleared to drive again.
The RMV told the newspaper it examines each "immediate threat driver" on a case-by-case basis and that they leave it up to a hearing officer to decide if they are cleared to drive.
The Herald's review cites two cases in which drivers involved in fatal crashes were allowed to drive again. They also mention the case of an MBTA bus driver accused of playing "chicken" with another bus driver. Hazel Cannon's license was revoked in June 2011, but was reinstated three months later. Cannon is still listed as working as a bus driver.

|Sam Walter Foss was NH Poet Laureate for the Common Man
Sam Walter Foss penned his first verses at Portsmouth High School here in NH. He went on to gain popular fame for his comic and philosophic writing. His poem "The House by the Side of the Road" was among the best loved in the nation. His fame has faded, but unlike many poets of his era – his works are still readable and relevant.
POEMS by Sam Foss and others
With two American poet laureates in a row coming from New Hampshire -- Donald Hall and now Charles Simic -- maybe something literary is literally alliterating in our water. Great poets blossom here, and none, for my money, was greater than Sam Walter Foss. He is known today, almost exclusively, for a bit of verse entitled "The House by the Side of the Road." The poem urges everyone to stop being cynical and scornful to their neighbors and "be a friend to man." It is sentimental, honest, proactive and optimistic – essential Foss -- but it is far from his best work. I know because I have a degree in English Literature, which is little more than a license to read books. I know, too, because Foss published five volumes of poetry, and I've read them all. This guy rocks.
Foss was more philosopher than poet. His moral compass was dead on. He carried a healthy distrust for authority. He had no patience for lazy, pretentious or quarrelsome people. A humanist of the highest order, Foss believed entirely in the goodness of "the average man" and wrote entirely for a popular audience that he hoped to inspire with his "homespun" verse. It was his dedication to popular topics and clear writing, one literary critic has suggested, that doomed Sam Walter Foss to obscurity. He refused to write with the "imagist obliqueness" employed by "major" poets of his era. In other words, when Foss wrote, you knew what he was saying.
The world, for Foss, was an incredibly fascinating comic opera. The more powerful and rich men became, he continually points out, the sillier men become. If he wrote about a boy "who was dumber than snowbirds in summer," the boy was likely to grow up to be president. Foss was fascinated by careless commuters who consistently showed up at the railroad station "jest in time to miss the train." His hero is often a humble farmer, artisan or shopkeeper who comes up against local power brokers. He doesn't always win, but he does the best he can.
In "The Logic of the Gun," a farmer posts 200 signs banning hunting on his property, then spots a man carrying a rifle. The farmer points to the sign. "You may have the rights," the hunter says, "but I have got the gun." In another poem, Foss plays the part of a storeowner who tries to join the local church, because he knows that is the best way to attract customers. Unwilling to have him as a member, the church elders stall the merchant by telling him to go off and talk to God. But the merchant returns a few weeks later and tells the shocked elders that he has, indeed, talked to God about joining their church. What did the Lord say? – they ask. The shopkeeper repeats the conversation:
"I'm trying to git in," sez I, "to the church of Elder Ford,
An they won't let me in at all." "Don't worry," sez the Lord.
"You're not the only one," sez He, "they've laid upon the shelf.
I've tried ten years without success to git in there myself,"
Born in Candia, NH in 1858, Foss moved with this family to Portsmouth when he was a young teen and attended the local high school. Then, like so many of his Industrial Age generation, foss abandoned the family farm for the urban landscape. You can take the boy out of the country, as they say, but you can't take the country out of the boy. Foss, like many poets of his era, spent the rest of his life living in the city and writing about the joys of rural life. But unlike most of his contemporaries, the poems of Sam Foss are still fresh and funny and poignant today.
The problem with poetry, as most modern poets know, is that almost nobody reads it, unless the poem is buried in a song lyric, turned into a jingle or rammed down one's throat in school. That was not true in the 19th century when reading and writing poetry was a national pastime. Like many writers, Sam Walter Foss came to poetry through journalism, After graduating from Brown University, he tried to run his own newspaper in Lynn, MA. When a freelance humor writer failed to turn in his column, Foss took a hand at writing comic pieces. His readers loved them. Foss later wrote columns for humor magazines, The New York Sun, The Boston Globe and the Christian Science Monitor. Four hundred of his poems appeared in five popular collections
But Foss never made enough money writing poetry to quit his day job. In 1898 he accepted the position as city librarian in Somerville, MA, one of the most densely populated cities in America. True to his philosophy, Foss used every method available to put books in the hands of average readers. He promoted the revolutionary practice of allowing patrons to take books directly off shelves, without the help of a librarian. He pioneered the use of travelling book collections in public schools, factories, prisons and nursing homes. During his tenure, the Somerville Library was among the most-trafficked library in the nation. Foss held the library position until his death of a liver ailment in 1911. He married the one love of his life, had two children, and died before he was able to write longer, more serious verse. Many of his poems were knocked off for the daily and weekly columns he wrote for local newspapers.
Sam Walter Foss has no biographer. His books are long out of print. But thanks to a high school chum, E. Scott Owen, we have a rare snapshot of the artist as a young man. Foss lived with his family in a small farm by Goseling Road by what is now the Newington Mall. He walked two and a half miles each way, each day, to attend school in the ancient brick building near the modern post office on Daniel Street. He was stocky, deeply tanned, slightly stooped, and wore his curly hair "brushed smooth. Although Foss was witty and likeable, he was neither a scholar nor a leader. He seemed to have no interest in girls, and it would not have mattered if he did. The minute school ended each day a 1:30 pm, Foss hiked up his unfashionably "high tide trousers" and trudged home to the family farm. His school chum remembers only seeing him angry once, when another boy swore at him. He was distinguished, not by his features or deeds, but by his total honesty and dogged determination to go to college.
E. Scott Owen recalls an essay on that Foss wrote for the high school Natural History Society that met during the last hour of class every Wednesday. It really had nothing to do with Natural History, Owen writes in an unpublished memoir, but was a sort of literary forum. Foss wrote and read aloud little humorous poems to the delight of his classmates. One mocked the school "Growlers," who spent so much time complaining about others, that they accomplished nothing themselves. It was a theme Foss often returned to in his later poetry. But when selected to pen "something poetical" for commencement, Foss wrote a bland and serious farewell ode. His friend E. Scott Owen wrote the music. A frail broadside copy of the document still survives. The final somber stanza reads:
So when we close our education,
In the world's great school of strife,
May our second graduation,
Fit us for a higher life.
Foss, of course, is talking about death here, but in fact, he did have a second graduation, and a third. Only two of the 19 Portsmouth High graduates from 1877 went on to advanced schooling. At that time, public schools were not adequate preparation for college. Foss got his Latin and Greek the next year at a prep school in Tilton, NH, before going on to Brown, where he worked his way through and was again, likeable, but unremarkable. When he consistently came up with "C" level work, his Portsmouth teacher reportedly said, "My boy, you know you want to be on good terms with both ends of the class." He was the ultimate common man.
But for Sam Walter Foss, being average was something to be proud of. Average men and women were uncorrupted, hard working, good-humored and resilient. The poet's job, Foss believed, was to speak in an authentic voice that everyone could understand. His mission was not to use language to confuse or impress, but to use it like a bullhorn to call common people to step out of the crowd and perform great deeds. Foss ends his poem 'The Man from the Crowd" this way:
We are waiting for you there --- for you are the man!
Come up from the jostle as soon as you can;
Come of from the crowd there, for you are the man –
The man who comes up from the crowd!

I recently got hold of a copy of Mike Rohde's 'The Sketchnote Handbook: the illustrated guide to visual notetaking'. It reminded me that notes can be fun, and that linear format notes tend not to be that exciting – either in the writing or indeed the review. I'm always looking for ways to stay awake in church (it's the sleep disorder and meds I'm on, not a side effect of the service!) and thought I'd give the principles a go. Here are four examples, in date order, from my first go at the process to yesterday's sermon notes. I say 'first go' – I've been used to note taking, and doodling in the margins, as well as adding illustrations to mind maps over the years… this is the first time I've combined all of them into one method of notetaking.
