Amy M., Aliesha K., & Melissa M., this is like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife. Only, you know, in an ironic kind of way.

LOL and that first one didn't know how to spell "teachers" either, haa TeaTchers. :D The "Peter," cake now that's just horrible!! Poor little kid! Let's hope that's not why his parents named him that. What an awful cake!

Makes me proud, damned proud, to be a teatcher.
- January 22, 2010 at 9:40 AM
Special people indeed!
And Peter, poor poor Peter. At least he won't notice the inappropriate-ness of his cake. Untill he is older and sees pictures and the pieces of his life all seem to come together...

re: cw#3 - peter may only turn one once, but wait until he turns eleven!!!
the poor kid. - January 22, 2010 at 9:43 AM
Is it me, or does the penmanship on #1 (heh!) look suspiciously like the penmanship on the "Under Neat that" cake???
The original wreckorator strikes again!!! - January 22, 2010 at 9:43 AM

I think two of those were sickly deliberate. But the "are" that looks like "one" is not.

I don't have words for 'Peter'. I am speachless.

- Trevor said...
Really? Do you think the last one is SUPPOSED to be a 1? I think not!
These are total classics. Thanks, Jen, for bringing a big smile to me on a day when I really needed one. I know I can count on CW for that! - January 22, 2010 at 9:49 AM

Oh my gracious!!!
- January 22, 2010 at 9:54 AM
I think "Peter's" dad is a little proud of his "boy"
and I wonder what "special" people "vaulanteer" for. clinical trials perhaps? - January 22, 2010 at 9:54 AM
Well, at least Peter isn't old enough yet to get the joke.... lol
- January 22, 2010 at 9:55 AM
Anyone think Peter's future career as a Chippendale dancer? or something similar? Especially if he goes to the same school where the teatchers cake was celebrated. Poor peter.

#1 & #2. Apparently these wreckerators graduated from the LOLcat Academy.
#3. I've heard of blue balls before, but never the whole dang thing!

Is the photo of Peter's first birthday going into the baby album??
I can just see it sixteen years hence: his mom opens the album for his prom date. "See how cute and goofy he was? Oh, and here's his first birthday cake!" - January 22, 2010 at 10:01 AM
And I have definitely found my status for the day... Special People Vaulinteer!
WV: Commythy- where the vaulinteers go. - January 22, 2010 at 10:02 AM

Maybe cake #2 is a play on words, honoring the wonderful unpaid helpers who work on a horseback riding vaulting program for handicapped kids. Or maybe that's a stretch....
- January 22, 2010 at 10:07 AM
Um, wow.
- January 22, 2010 at 10:10 AM
Peter might only turn 1 once but I think 10 if given the right twist can be quite a wreck.
- January 22, 2010 at 10:13 AM
Had a good laugh at the cakes today. Poor Peter...I honestly thought it was a joke porn cake until I saw the candle.
- January 22, 2010 at 10:13 AM
The cakes gave me a good laugh today. I honestly thought that poor Peter's cake was a joke porn cake until I saw the candle.
This is my second try, so I'm sorry if both show up. - January 22, 2010 at 10:16 AM
I have never laughed so hard as I did on the "Peter" one.

What do special people volunteer for? Hmmm?
- January 22, 2010 at 10:51 AM
Not completely related, but you do know that Alanis was blasted for her "irony" not being actually ironic, but simply unfortunate, right?
Then again, maybe that was what you were going for since, really, misspellings on this site aren't really "ironic" at all. Expected, actually. ;) (which is the best part of this site!)
The Mithspellings always make me laugh (and cringe!) But the Vaulinteers has to be the best! Hahahaha.
WV: tharid - I think we should tharid of these cakes before someone sees them! - January 22, 2010 at 10:54 AM
- Karen Valinda said...
I had to go back and try to see the word "are" on the first cake... that's what happens when you read comments before posting your own!
I was going to be a Math Teatcher when I grew up, maybe it's just as well that fate intervened. There is NO hope for Peter if that picture goes in the photo album... - January 22, 2010 at 11:01 AM
- Jules AF said...
You'd think cake decorators would own dictionaries and utilize them. But on such an easy word like teacher, should it be necessary?!?
- January 22, 2010 at 11:04 AM
- Melissa (& Billy) said...
The first one: LOL! It looks like 'one #1'--I had to look closely to make it turn into 'are'. Ah, that'll bring a tear to a teacher's eye. (and not in a good way!)
The second one: I agree--the only thing to say is *headdesk*
The third--Wow. Hopefully his parents won't want to put THAT picture in his senior yearbook. (at my HS the back of the yearbook was reserved for 'congrats' for seniors, often with childhood photos. Yikes!) - January 22, 2010 at 11:12 AM

That "vaulanteers" cake looks like it's made of wax! I've never seen frosting that weird color...
Awful. Just awful. - January 22, 2010 at 11:12 AM
- Terry Lee said...
there is nothing, absolutely nothing that i love more than misspelled wrecks.
unless it's misspelled wrecks with a big ol' dose of irony.
the "teatchers" cake reminds me of my days as a school nurse. more often than not, our school marquee would contain misspells, backward letters or incorrect grammar, etc.
after pointing out the mistakes (which i found embarrassing for an educational facility) several times to administration ... and receiving either blank stares or icy cold responses, i started snapping pictures of our marquee and sharing them with friends and associates. hmmmph.
favorite post of the week! thanks, j & j! - January 22, 2010 at 11:16 AM
My best friend would get a kick out of the Longwood "teatchers" cake since she went to Longwood. Thankfully her spelling is better than that. :P

Love the blog!
Echoing the above commentator, the past two days my RSS feed has only showed the email/facebook/digg/twitter links but not the full post. I don't mind clicking over, but having everything in one place is nice... - January 22, 2010 at 11:46 AM
LOL! The Peter cake is peter-shaped.
- January 22, 2010 at 11:46 AM
- WideAwakeWife said...
I think the Peter cake may be my new favorite. Subtle yet hilarious!
- January 22, 2010 at 11:56 AM
OK, I also saw "one #1" and assumed the Teatchers "won" something and are therefore #1.
wv - menty: a shade of green much beloved of wreckerators - January 22, 2010 at 11:57 AM
Oh my goodness, the Peter cake is one of the funniest you've posted in awhile!

- Ella said...
I'd say the Longwood Teatchers have some spelling lessons to conduct, starting with the bakery staff. I'd like to say they added the extra "t" for visual balance, yep, I'd like to say that...
lol! How does basic design keep eluding these people?
Special People Vaulinteer? Is this some discount version of a volunteer? Get your value with a vaulinteer? Wonder if they're anything like a Mouseketeer?
Normally people are horrified when their significant other is shown nude baby photos of them. Peter may be equally horrified when the pics of his 1st birthday cake is shown. If they go with the same bakery on his 11th birthday, that might embarrass him too. On the other hand he might get a kick out of it & strive to live to the ripe old age of 111. - January 22, 2010 at 11:59 AM
- Amy said...
HouseofEstrogen, I agree - up until yesterday I was always able to view full posts in Google Reader, but now it's only showing the title.
These cakes today are hilarious!

His 11 cake will be bad? Try his 10 cake!
- January 22, 2010 at 12:13 PM
- Amanda Mac said...
Oh, my... took me a good thirty seconds to realize that the, er, Peter was supposed to be the number one and not something else.
Poor kid. That brings blackmail photos to an entirely new level. I can only imagine when he's a pimply 16-year-old on his first prom date and Mom whips out the first birthday pictures! - January 22, 2010 at 12:17 PM
- whitneyvegan said...
What about when Peter turns 11?
- January 22, 2010 at 12:20 PM
- Felicia said...
The upside is that Peter will probably find this hilarious when he turns 18 or so!
- January 22, 2010 at 12:23 PM
A blue peter is a flag flown on a ship in harbor announcing that the ship is getting ready to leave and all hands should return. [Bridge borrowed the term; I'm not an old salt.] That's all the third cake is: a blue peter flag. There's nothing to gawk at, keep moving.
- January 22, 2010 at 12:56 PM

Peter will look back on this years from now and laugh at the unintentional wreckage...unless it turns out the 1 represents his size downstairs.

Can't wait for Peter's birthday #2... hehehe
- January 22, 2010 at 1:23 PM
Peter's parents FINALLY get what everyone was warning them about, and now he goes by his middle name, Richard.
- January 22, 2010 at 1:24 PM
Doesn't a kid named Peter have enough problems these days without paying someone to spell it out in cake?
- January 22, 2010 at 1:28 PM
- Nil Zed said...
I don't suppose it's worth mentioning that the RSS feed problems were explained yesterday, because people who don't actually read the text of the blog surely can't be bothered to read comments that were posted after their own.
But, I feel better. - January 22, 2010 at 1:33 PM
C'mon, what makes you think that last one is a birthday cake?
Maybe it's just an homage to the #1 Peter! And the candle is also symbolic. Or just adding a bit of inspirational light.
It's got nothing to do with a birthday, if you ask me. LIly - January 22, 2010 at 1:34 PM

But look at the pic, there are cookies and what seems to be part of a party hat.
Hopefully he'll find this funny one day - January 22, 2010 at 2:00 PM
- Little Lovables said...
poor poor Peter, the blue phalic depiction of his poor poor name... oh peter, so glad he is not in high school.
I seriously hope is last name is not something embarressing - January 22, 2010 at 2:01 PM

Blue Peter is also a children's show on the BBC. I don't think that's what the wreckorators were going for, though.

So, my sister in law has that same "1" cake mold and when she made the cake for her son's birthday I made some crack about how phallic is looked...she cried. Ooops. I mean, dude, you made your baby a penis cake. Not my fault! Regardless, I stole the cake mold and have been using it for bachelorette parties ever since. Love it!
- January 22, 2010 at 2:26 PM
Heh-heh....I had a principal who would send out directives to staff and letters to parents that contained blatant spelling and grammar errors. She was an English major for pete's sake! I used to entertain myself during faculty meetings by circling all her mistakes on the agenda. So it's not just those wreckerators who don't know how to spell. LOL Thanks for a great post today.

Hahahahaa...I will have to point the Austin cake show volunteers to the volunteer cake and promise not to make them one as an additional perk (they already get discounts on t-shirts and class/dinner tickets).
WV: minden: as in, no one is minden their speeeling on thees cakes! - January 22, 2010 at 2:50 PM
This is really disappointing. Not having a working RSS feed is the same as not having a blog at all. I mean, it's bad if someone else is copying your content -- but this is the Internet; that's gonna happen whether you supply it via RSS or plain, unvarnished HTML. Watermarking the pics is the only way to passively combat it; deactivating the feed just means you're losing real readers. And that's quite a shame; I just discovered the blog -- through Google Reader, I might add -- a couple of weeks ago. :(

I have often wondered if Alanis Morrissette is having the last laugh. If she intentionally wrote a song where she called a whole bunch of stuff ironic when it wasn't, knowing it was indeed ironic that she was misusing the word ironic.

I wonder if Peter's last name is Johnson? :P

On a side note, thank you so much for supporting the Gwendolyn Strong Foundation on Facebook and Twitter. My dear friend Rita emailed you, and is ecstatic that Cake Wrecks, her favorite blog of all time, supported us. How awesome is that?! In case you didn't get the news, GSF came in 6th out of 100, which means a $100,000 grant to help fund research and awareness for Spinal Muscular Atrophy. YOU have a part in that, and we so greatly appreciate it!
Way to go Cake Wrecks!! <3

As a middle school teatcher, I wish you'd leave the "peter" posts separate from the great teatching moment posts, aka the spelling and grammar mistakes.
I love to use your site in the classroom, but not when it gets racy. I like the racy posts, too, but they don't make it to the smart board. - January 23, 2010 at 1:56 PM
The people who decorated these cakes must not have had good teatchers.
- January 23, 2010 at 3:30 PM
Could some of the misspellings be due to the customer writing out the message for the decorators when ordering the cake? It seems like some are the result of poor handwriting.
- January 24, 2010 at 1:29 AM
@ Middle School Teacher--
If you are in a district with the money for Smart Boards in your classroom (really?!), you need not whine to CW because they somehow get up in the morning without your lesson plans in mind. Your life is already rich and blessed enough, it would seem.
Jen has been kind enough to organize her archives for easy access to what you're looking for, so why not go take a look around in there, if your grammar mistakes must be served with cake? - January 24, 2010 at 5:27 PM
Special people vaulinteer
Really special people become cake wreckorators - January 24, 2010 at 7:44 PM
- shikishinobi said...
Poor Peter! It looks like... a phalic symbol. Maybe they were wishing him a large endownment when he gets older.
Enough dirty talk.
I'm not sure what was more ironic; running out of space for 'special people' or misspelling valunteer. Maybe the special people can offer their 'vaulinteer' services to the wreckorators. - January 25, 2010 at 12:32 AM
- Kate said...
I went to Longwood University for 3 semesters. I took some classes with some education majors. I reassure you that "Longwood Teatcher's" (possessive, mind you) "one #1" doesn't surprise me in the least.
- January 25, 2010 at 2:27 PM
- Hannah said...
Anyway of knowing if that first cake is from Longwood University? I was the pastry chef there until about 6 months ago, so my replacement would have been the one making this...that is WAY too funny!!
- January 25, 2010 at 8:58 PM
- Rita W said...
Okay...the last cake is my favorite wreck of all time now. Awesome!
Poor Peter. Hopefully his parents don't share his 1st birthday pictures with the first girl he brings home. - January 26, 2010 at 12:07 AM

Somehow, the Peter cake reminded me of a gravestone. It wasn't until I read the comments here that I realized what else it looked like. I have a clean mind.

- January 26, 2010 at 2:07 PM
I just want to say that your blog is SO funny- I really laugh myself to tears every time I take a look!!! And while the cakes are funny on their own, it's your comments that make me LOL to the point that my kids will say "she's looking at those cakes again...(eye roll)"-
thank you!

That first cake is especially bad to me as I am a Longwood graduate. Yes from the education department no less. Never expected one of these to hit so close to home.
- January 27, 2010 at 1:12 PM
The peter cake is especially funny for me because I have a friend named Peter Johnson...His father's name is Richard (commonly nicknamed "Dick".) We have group conversations about what he should name his first son to continue the tradition...Maybe he can also give his kid a similar cake on his 1st birthday lol.

I'm thinking maybe a shaped cake waasn't the way to go for Peter's first birthday.

I was told a story about the former minister of my mother's church. He and his wife are lovely and intelligent people. But, apparently not well informed on the changes in slang.
They named their first child Peter. This wasn't really a problem until he started school. Suddenly their happy little boy was sullen, and getting into fights.
So, they called the school to speak with his teacher, who said, "Well, Mr. and Mrs. Dick..."
(yes, really. I'm not making it up.)
wv: sconch. Sure there's enough room! Jes' sconch it all on there. - March 22, 2010 at 10:59 PM
hey that 'Vaulinteer' picture is mine..hmm...wonder who stole it and put it on here! It is hillarious though!
- April 7, 2010 at 8:51 AM
Oh and the problem with the spelling on cake #2 was that we were stationed in Germany and the volunteer appreciation luncheon was for the Chaplain's office there on post. Well the cakes are ordered through the commissary and then shipped off to the local German bakery for the writing. So it really was an honest mistake on their part, but hillarious on ours! :)
- April 7, 2010 at 8:53 AM

What's a Wreck?
What's a Wreck?
A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.
Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)

Where's the book?
We don't have any copies of Cake Wrecks for sale here, autographed or otherwise. We decided the shipping and handling costs would be too high to make it worth your while. So instead, buy your copies locally or online and then order personalized bookplates: it's cheaper, easier, and I think even looks a bit nicer.

Brands can explore different strategies to keep consumers engaged. One popular tool is branded entertainment, or creating some sort of social game for the user. The benefits of such a platform include submersing the user in the brand's content. Users will be more likely to absorb and not grow tired of advertisements if they are, for example, embedded in the game as opposed to a bothersome pop-up ad.
Social media, as a modern marketing tool, offers opportunities to reach larger audiences in an interactive way. These interactions allow for conversation rather than simply educating the customer.
Piter Till
Digital media, which includes Internet, social networking and social media sites, is a modern way for brands to interact with consumers as it releases news, information and advertising from the technological limits of print and broadcast infrastructures. Digital media is currently the most effective way for brands to reach their consumers on a daily basis. Over 2.7 billion people are online globally, which is about 40% of the world's population. 67% of all Internet users globally use social media.
Mass communication has led to modern marketing strategies to continue focusing on brand awareness, large distributions and heavy promotions. The fast-paced environment of digital media presents new methods for promotion to utilize new tools now available through technology. With the rise of technological advances, promotions can be done outside of local contexts and across geographic borders to reach a greater number of potential consumers. The goal of a promotion is then to reach the most people possible in a time efficient and a cost efficient manner.
Bottom line
Mass communication has led to modern marketing strategies to continue focusing on brand awareness, large distributions and heavy promotions.

About Squirrels
Gray squirrels are approximately 18 inches in length, which includes their 9 inch tail and they weigh about 1-1.5 lbs. as an adult. Their coloration is usually a grayish colour, however they can have tan hairs in the fur as well and they usually have a white belly. Their winter coat is grey above with a white underside and their summer coat is shorter, sleeker and more brownish grey Red squirrels have red/brown upper parts in summer but may show some grey on the back in winter, which can sometimes lead to some confusion.
Red squirrels are smaller, lighter, have ear tufts and prominent in the winter coat and brown on the legs and tail. Their natural habitats are wooded areas in tree cavities, and they can also be near hardwoods like oaks and hickory trees. They will also construct feeding shelters out of leafs. They generally have 2 litters a year, 2-4 young per litter and they normally breed in midwinter and late spring. Gestation is about 44 days. Their diet consists of bird eggs, insects, berries, fruit, vegetables, nuts and nestling birds, squirrels also like to hoard their food.
The Gray squirrels are most active during the day, and can inhabit the attic areas as well as crawl spaces. They like to enter the attic areas from your gutters and nearby trees and bushes. Installing gutter guards, or down spouts with screen may prevent them from climbing up to the roof through a down spout.

Stolen Property Being Returned to Owners
LENOX, Mass. — The items held as evidence in the case against burglary kingpin Stefan Veremko are being released to their owners.
The Lenox Police Department has been holding hundreds of items seized in November 2009 from Veremko's home, vehicle and areas where he had discarded the property. Veremko's monthslong spree across three states ended when an off-duty officer spotted him fleeing a building - with a pillowcase.
Multiple police agencies were investigating the break-ins, which stretched from Southern Vermont to South County. As a result, Veremko and accomplice Tara Malloy were arrested. The recent conclusion of the case convicting Veremko and giving him five- to seven-year state prison sentence allows police the opportunity to return the seized evidence to the many victims involved with this case, said Chief Stephen E. O'Brien.
Many people came to the Lenox Town Hall on Nov. 19, 2009, to view the vast array of items. Some were able to identify items that indeed belonged to them. While conducting this process, during the exit interview, these victims were asked to provide a phone number at which they could be reached at the conclusion of the case.
Within the next several days, the victims who identified property will be receiving a call from the Lenox Police to arrange for the release of their property. All of the property that was identified will be returned to its rightful owner. For victims from the states of Vermont and New York, their property will be released to the police agency having jurisdiction over the crime. The out-of-state agency will make a determination if that property may be released or if it will remain held pending future criminal action against Veremko and Malloy in their states.
"We are asking for everyone's patience as we attempt to relinquish property in an orderly fashion to be certain that each and every victim recoups their loss," said O'Brien. "We also thank everyone involved for their patience as this case made its way through the criminal court system."

Crime Watch Page Created for North Adams
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — There's a new crime watch page on Facebook for city residents.
The page was created by Jennifer Breen Kirsch, a local attorney who's become active in crime prevention after her parents' home was broken into days after Christmas. Kirsch, working with the city and local organizations, has spearheaded the community watch group.
The community effort has been prompted by a wave of break-ins that came to public attention last fall after a number of break-ins in Clarksburg and Stamford, Vt. A suspect believed to be the culprit in the majority of them — and dozens of others through Berkshire and Bennington (Vt.) County — was arrested and charged. However, several of those burglaries have not be resolved and numerous others have occurred in Williamstown, North Adams, Adams and Cheshire over recent months.
North Adams held a community meeting on Thursday night at City Hall to discuss crime and neighborhood action to prevent it.
The new Facebook page states:
Please join the new Neighborhood Crime Watch Group sponsored by Mayor Dick Alcombright, the NAPD through Officer Mark Bailey and Commissioner E. John Morocco, community representative Jenn Kirsch, and the NBCC, through Ashley Benson and Al Bashevkin. To find out more, please post questions and we will quickly reply. Our goal is to reduce the crime rate, as a community, in conjunction with City Hall and the NAPD. We need volunteers and neighborhood captains to run meetings. If you are interested, Officer Bailey, along with members of the team, will conduct a meeting for you and your neighbors, at your home. Let's unite under this common goal to reduce crime in our city! |

North Adams Urging Crime Watch
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The city is hosting a community meeting on Thursday, Feb. 11, at 6 p.m. at City Hall to discuss neighborhood safety and crime watches. Mayor Richard Alcombright, whose home was burglarized last spring, talked a little about the issue at Friday's Northern Berkshire Community Coaliton forum.
The call for a crime watch is prompted by a spike in burglaries in the city and other parts of Berkshire County and Southern Vermont. The first indication of a rise in the area began last fall with a series of break-ins, many of which police say are linked to a Pittsfield man, Stefan Veremko. More recently, homes in North Adams, Adams, Cheshire and Williamstown have been broken into, including the parents of Jennifer Breen Kirsch.
Kirsch, a former Middlesex prosecutor, criticized the handling of the case and is now spearheading efforts to develop local crime watches.
"I think it's a bold attempt. We're going to bring the city, we're going to bring the private citizen, the Community Coalition together and, hopefully, folks will show up and consider the neighborhood watch as a solution to stopping crime in their neighborhoods," said Alan Bashevkin, executive director of the coalition, of next week's meeting.
Public Safety Commissioner E. John Morocco urged residents to contact the police about starting a neighborhood watch.
"Call us up. We'll show you [how] and we'll guide you through it," he said. "And we won't just leave. We'll show up every month at your meeting. ... But it takes a neighborhood to start a neighborhood watch program it takes somebody to step forward and say 'we're going to do this' and get the neighbors to show up."
In any case, said Morocco, "don't leave your car unlocked, don't leave your house unsecured."
Breaking and enterings, or B&Es, happen anytime, he said. "The recent rash were more bold, daytime, but they happen all times of day and night."
The commissioner said about 85 to 90 percent of all crimes - domestic violence, child abuse, larceny - here and nationwide can be attributed to substance abuse.
Liz Shiner of the Elizabeth Freeman Center, said domestic violence has increased and that the county's rate for retraining orders is 40 percent above the statewide rate. The center would be willing to teach neighborhood crime watches how to deal with domestic violence, she said.
Morocco shared some interesting information about how Veremko allegedly plotted the numerous burglaries across the county and into Vermont over the past year.
According to Morocco, Veremko kept a notebook with a list of likely houses. He'd case the house and look up the phone numbers, call and track when they weren't home. "He'd do his homework," said Morocco. "He was probably the most sophisticated burlglar I've ever seen."
Veremko is being held on $250,000 bail after being arraigned on numerous charges relating to the break-ins.

Veremko Arraigned, Held on $250K
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Here's a name familiar to many in Clarksburg and Stamford — Stefan Veremko.
Veremko was arraigned in Berkshire Superior Court on Monday afternoon multiple charges related to numerous burglaries across the county between last June 1 and Nov. 19, 2009. The Pittsfield man is suspected in some of the break-ins and attempted break-ins in both Clarksburg and Stamford this past fall. He's also facing charges in the Bennington, Vt., area.
The 28-year-old had not-guilty pleas entered on his behalf for 15 counts of breaking and entering in the daytime with intent to commit a felony; 14 counts of larceny in building; 11 counts of malicious destruction of property worth more than $250; 15 counts of receiving stolen property worth more than $250 and single counts each of possesion of ammunition without a firearms identification card, cruelty to animals and being a common and notorious thief (we'll have to look that one up).
Judge John A. Agostini ordered that he be held at the Berkshire County House of Correction on $25,000 cash or $250,000 surety bail. He also was ordered to stay away from the many victims, as well as to have no contact with them if he posts bail.
As most will remember, Veremko was arrested after an off-duty probation officer said he saw him fleeing a building in Lenox with a full pillow case. Veremko allegedly stopped and switched license plates but the officer noted the number and he was arrested at his Dartmouth Street residence.
The investigation was conducted by members of the Lenox, Pittsfield, Dalton, Lanesborough, Stockbridge, West Stockbridge, Williamstown and Clarksburg police departments and state troopers assigned to the Lee barracks.

Clarksburg Crime Watch Offers Reward
The Clarksburg Crime Watch wants to catch a thief and is putting up $1,000 reward to find him or her.
The town was hit by a half-dozen burglaries from September to the beginning of November; most are believed to be the work of Stefan Veremko, a Pittsfield man charged recently in connection of string break-ins running from Southern Vermont to South County.
A number of Clarksburg residents, however, are convinced Veremko wasn't working alone or that a second burglar was working the same territory. Several members of the crime watch, who want to remain anonymous, are offering the reward in hopes of catching the person or persons - and returning residents' peace of mind.
The reward will be given to anyone who comes forward with information leading to the arrest and conviction of any person or persons responsible for committing the recent break-in and burglary crimes, particularly one on Mountain View Drive that occurred on the afternoon of Oct. 31.
Residents are asked to call 413-663-7795 with any information they can provide to solve the remaining break-in case (possibly cases) not solved.
In order to claim the reward, you must (1) provide information to the law-enforcement agency that leads to the arrest and conviction of the party responsible for the crime and (2) submit a claim for a reward to Police Chief Michael Williams, who will contact the community watch members on your behalf.
In the event that two or more individuals provide information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for said crimes, the reward will be apportioned between them as determined appropriate by the watch group. The reward expires on Oct. 31, 2010.
"The Clarksburg Community Watch extends its deepest appreciation to those community members and individuals who have offered this reward. We encourage people to come forward with any information. Please help your community!"
Find out more at the town's Neighborhood Watch site.

Pakistani Taliban Kills Three Foreign Christian Aid Workers
Kidnapped relief workers had come to provide aid to victims of massive flooding
08/27/2010 Pakistan (CDN)- Authorities on Wednesday (Aug. 25) recovered the bodies of three Christian relief workers who had been kidnapped and killed by members of the Pakistani Taliban in the flood-ravaged country, area officials said.
Swat District Coordination Officer Atif-ur-Rehman told Compass that the Pakistan Army recovered the bodies of the three foreign flood-relief workers at about 7 a.m. on Wednesday. An official at the international humanitarian organization that employed the workers withheld their names and requested that the agency remain unnamed for security reasons. Military sources who withheld news of the deaths from electronic and print media to avoid panicking other relief workers granted permission to Compass to publish it in limited form.
"The foreign aid workers have been working in Mingora and the surrounding areas," Rehman said. "On Aug. 23 they were returning to their base at around 5:35 p.m. when a group of Taliban attacked their vehicle. They injured around five-six people and kidnapped three foreign humanitarian workers."
Pakistan has been hit by its worst flooding in decades, with the United Nations now estimating more than 21.8 million people have been affected. Foreign aid workers are involved in relief activities across the country, including Swat district in Khyber-Paktunkhwa Province in northern Pakistan. At least 8 million people require emergency relief, with hundreds of thousands reportedly isolated from aid supplies.
An army Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) source said rangers have been deployed in Swat and other potential target areas to help provide security for relief workers.
"The Taliban had warned about attacks on foreigner aid workers and Christian organizations," the ISPR source said. "All the international humanitarian organizations have been notified, and their security has also been increased."
Rehman noted that the Taliban also has been trying to bring relief to flood victims.
"The Taliban are also trying to support the flood victims, and many other banned organizations have set up camps in southern Punjab to support the victims," he said. "They intend to sympathize with the affected and gain their support."
The president of advocacy organization Life for All, Rizwan Paul, said the bodies of the three relief workers had been sent to Islamabad under the supervision of the Pakistan Army.
"We strongly condemn the killing of the three humanitarian workers," Paul said. "These aid workers came to support us, and we are thankful to the humanitarian organizations that came to help us in a time of need."
Pointing to alleged discrimination against minorities in distribution of humanitarian aid, Paul added that Christians in severely flood-damaged areas in Punjab Province have been neglected. The majority of the effected Christians in Punjab are in Narowal, Shakargarh, Muzzafargarh, Rahim Yar Khan and Layyah, he said.
"The Christians living around Maralla, Narowal, and Shakargarh were shifted to the U.N.- administered camps, but they are facing problems in the camps," he said. "There are reports that the Christians are not given tents, clean water and food. In most of the camps the Christians have totally been ignored."
Life for All complained to U.N. agencies and the government of Pakistan regarding the discrimination, but no one has responded yet, he said.
"There have been reports from Muzzaffargarh and Layyah that the Christians are living on the damaged roads in temporary tents, as they were not allowed in the government camps," he said.
In Sindh Province Thatta has been flooded, and around 300 Christian families who tried to move from there to Punjab were forbidden from doing so, a source said. Meteorologists are predicting more rains in coming days, with the already catastrophic flooding expected to get worse.
Kashif Mazhar, vice president of Life for All, said that in the northern province of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa conditions for Christians are better as there are Christian camps established, and Garrison Church in Risalpur is also providing aid to victims.
"It is discouraging to see that the Christian organizations are wholeheartedly supporting the victims regardless of the religion or race, but in most of the areas the Christians are totally ignored and not even allowed to stay," Mazhar said.
Foreign targets are rarely attacked directly in Pakistan, despite chronic insecurity in the nuclear-armed state, which is a key ally in the U.S.-led war on Al Qaeda and the Taliban in neighboring Afghanistan. On March 10, however, suspected Islamic militants armed with guns and grenades stormed the offices of a Christian relief and development organization in northwest Pakistan, killing six aid workers and wounding seven others.
The gunmen besieged the offices of international humanitarian organization World Vision near Oghi, in Mansehra district, of the North West Frontier Province. Suicide and bomb attacks across Pakistan have killed more than 3,000 people since 2007. Blame has fallen on Taliban and Al Qaeda-linked militants bitterly opposed to the alliance with the United States.
The U.N. decided last year to relocate a limited number of its international staff from Pakistan because of security concerns. Its World Food Program office in Islamabad was attacked in October last year, with five aid workers killed in a suicide bombing.
Then on Feb. 3, a bomb attack in the NWFP district of Lower Dir killed three U.S. soldiers and five other people at the opening of a school just rebuilt with Western funding after an Islamist attack.

Fewer Models Of Color Work New York's Fashion Runways
LatestAfter tracking diversity on the runways for several seasons, we took off last September because we thought the fashion industry was finally coming to its senses. Models of color were getting booked! How disappointing, then, to tally this season's numbers.
As I watched the New York shows last week, I noticed that the casts were dominated by white models. An ethnic face might pass by here or there, alone in a lineup of 30-some looks — but the overall impression I got from my Z-row seat was that what's gonna big for fall is being a white person. (Also: fur.)
It turns out this impression wasn't just anecdotally true: it's a plain fact. The New York runways were less diverse this season than last time we checked in.
Fashion week had been becoming more diverse — it was only in the fall of 2007 that fully one-third of shows in New York had 100% white casts. Two years later, we calculated that 18% of spots in show lineups were booked by models of color — a real improvement in the representation of black, Latina, and Asian faces in the crucible where the beauty standard is forged.
This season, fashion took a step back.
We counted the number of spots in each of the 122 fall, 2010, shows held in New York that were covered by Style.com. (Why Style.com? Because the online home of American Vogue strikes a good balance of breadth and noteworthiness in choosing which shows to cover, and it's good about putting models' names in its slideshows.) We counted how many of those spots went to models of color.
The numbers, as you can see, were not encouraging. Of 4,095 turns on the runway, only 662 went to models who weren't white. That's barely 16%.
Black models, at 323 bookings, were used the most of any single ethnic group, aside from whites. Asians were second, with 264. Latinas were a distant third, with 61 trips down the catwalk. Fourteen times during this fashion week, models of other races were used in a runway show.
It's important to note that we were counting instances of a model being used in a show — not individual models. (A lot fewer than 4,095 models did the fashion week rounds.) Models who are popular with designers and casting directors were booked for multiple shows, and many shows send each model out in two or more looks from the collection. We counted not each model but each runway look — ie, the total number of opportunities for women of color to be included on American fashion's biggest platform, and in the fashion week that kicks off the world's ready-to-wear collections, which continue right now in London.
Most of the shows that took place used some models of color — just three designers, A Détacher, Alice + Olivia (full disclosure: an old client of mine), and Preen, chose exclusively white casts — but many used very few. Well over 60% of the shows, in fact, used casts that were 85% white, or more.
Nineteen shows used only one non-white model. Those designers included taste-makers like Calvin Klein, blockbuster commercial labels like Diesel, and the Olsens' well-regarded line, The Row.
Eighteen designers booked just two models of color. That list included both Donna Karan and DKNY, Jill Stuart, Rag & Bone, and Nicole Miller.
One of the worst offenders was Max Azria. At his three high-profile New York fashion week shows, BCBG Max Azria, Max Azria, and Hervé Leger by Max Azria — each attended by virtually every important fashion editor, and worked by one of fashion's most exclusive casts — diversity was practically non-existent. BCBG had one black model, Shena Moulton, and one Asian, Shu Pei Qin, out of a 29-look lineup. Hervé Leger had only the same two girls of color, in a 32-look show. For his eponymous line, Azria showed 36 looks, and used just one model who wasn't white: Shu Pei.
It must be said that some models of color worked a lot.
The Chinese model Liu Wen, pictured here on the top left in an editorial for Teen Vogue, walked in 22 of the shows that we looked at for the purposes of this post, and Shu Pei, seen on the bottom in a Benetton ad, and Tao Okamoto, seen here in a Dazed & Confused editorial, each walked in 21. Those are excellent showlists for a single fashion week, and these models will almost certainly continue their strong runs during the European collections. But why weren't there more models of color overall? None of the fashion shows I went to was even as diverse as the crowd that assembled to watch them.
Fashion week's top black model, by number of shows and presentations booked, was Rose Cordero, pictured above on the March, 2010, cover of Paris Vogue. (Cordero is the first black model to be granted a solo French Vogue cover since Liya Kebede, in 2002.) The 17-year-old Dominican national was in 16 shows. Second, with 15 New York shows under her belt, was Joan Smalls, a Puerto Rican, shown below Cordero. On the upper left is Texan R'el Dade, who nabbed third place in a tie, with 12 shows.
Black models Sedene Blake, right, and Moulton, left, tied Dade's tally.
Because as we all know "Latina" is an ethnicity, not a "race" — and since race is, after all, a social construct — it would be pointless to pretend that the models we counted as "Latina" were a comprehensive group. Where a Latina model was black, like Cordero, or the Brazilian Gracie Carvalho, we counted her as black. Where a Latina model was white, like the Brazilian Raquel Zimmerman, or virtually every other famous Brazilian model you can name, we counted them as white. So the "Latina" category we made up for the purposes of this analysis was necessarily gerrymandered; in fact, the only Latinas we counted as "Latinas" are models of mixed race and/or of indigenous descent. We did this because we wanted these categories to reflect the diversity of New York fashion week at the most superficial, visual level: during a show, did the girl walking by appear to be other than white? On the short list of things that casting directors take into consideration when choosing (or rejecting) a model, what passport she bears or culture she represents — those are not present. The color of her skin — that is.
We certainly wish that Peruvian Juana Burga, top, who walked in 10 shows, Bruna Tenório, a Brazilian of indigenous descent, pictured bottom left in a Neiman Marcus catalog, who walked in 8, and Daiane Conterato, who was fashion week's third most popular Latina model, with four shows — and women like them — had been better represented at the collections in New York.
Tara Gill, left, a Canadian who is part Native American, and the Moroccan Hind Sahli, right, walked in four and five shows, respectively. Their combined efforts comprised the less than 1% of the total runway spots that went to girls of other races. Why doesn't fashion have a bigger place for faces like these?
The importance of this issue can hardly be overstated. The United States is only around 75% white, and according to the Census Bureau's most recent figures, New York City is only 44% white. And many of the least-diverse labels, like Calvin Klein, Diesel, and Donna Karan, are international brands. Wouldn't they want their potential customers to recognize their own forms of beauty in their runway shows? The aesthetic standards set by the fashion industry affect all of our lives. Making a sample size that models don't have to die of anorexia to get into seems to be a real head-scratcher for some designers, but validating the beauty of models who meet every one of the industry's other restrictive standards, and also happen to be non-white, should be a no-brainer.
Certain shows were relatively very diverse. Tracy Reese and Sophie Théallet — who won last June's Council of Fashion Designers of America Award, and Michelle Obama's favor — both had majority-minority show casts, casts that reflected in some way the diversity of the city those designers call home. Diane von Furstenberg showed 16 of her 43 collection looks on models of color. Ports 1961 was as diverse as always, with five different Asian models, three black models, and Hind Sahli all walking in its Bryant Park show. Fully one in three of designer Rachel Comey's looks was presented on a model of color. Daniel Vosovic, a designer whose show we did not include in our tally only because Style.com didn't cover it, showed his collection on an all-Asian cast. Fellow Project Runway alumnus Christian Siriano opened and closed his show with a black model, Sessilee Lopez — and was one of only seven designers to choose to give a coveted opening or closing nod to a model of color. These designers, at least, are among those who see the value in a runway show that in some way tries to reflect the diversity of the wider world.
Maybe we should ask Max Azria — not to mention Francisco Costa — why he doesn't.
Jezebel interns Madeleine Desmond, Lucy Zhihui Zhu, and Noorain Khan contributed invaluable work to this statistical report.

We select ads that may interest you.
Send us an enquiry with an approximate description of the property or investment project you're interested in.
After clarifying your enquiry, we will introduce you to our partners and/or local agents.
We will help you to select suitable options. Tranio does not charge a commission for this — the property price remains the same as if you contacted our partner directly.
You then view the property or properties you have chosen. Our partners or agents from Tranio's European offices will meet you in situ.
Having chosen the best property, you will sign the sales or investment agreement (for development).
It depends on the country. For example, German banks willingly offer mortgages to foreigners at 1.5-2 % per annum with LTV up to 70%. Spain offers less favourable terms: the minimum rate for foreigners is 2.5% per annum. The situation is different in Greece: although the law does not prohibit banks from issuing loans, in practice, Greek banks don't issue loans to local nor foreign property buyers. You can learn about the mortgage terms in your preferred country by contacting Tranio's local agents.
The purchase procedure depends on the country where you buy property. Generally, after choosing a property you need to sign a preliminary agreement with the seller and carry out a due diligence of the property by checking the relevant documents and the property's technical condition. After that, all parties sign the sales agreement and the notary registers the transaction. As a rule, the purchase registration costs amount to approximately 10% of the property price.
In some countries it is possible. Residence-for-property purchase programmes are known as Golden Visas programmes. Greece, Spain and Latvia offer the most popular Golden Visas in Europe. The Greek residence permit is the cheapest and can be obtained by buying a property worth at least €250,000, while organising all of the documents costs about €19,000. Certain countries offer citizenship to property buyers — for example, an investor can get their hands on a Turkey passport by buying a property worth at least $400,000.
We share the commission, which the buyer or the seller (depending on the country) pays to our partners — foreign real estate agencies. The price of this service is the same as if you contacted the agency directly — this is an important condition and applies to all of our partnership agreements.
The transaction security is guaranteed by the notary who draws up the sales agreement and checks the information on the previous and current owners of the property, any outstanding restrictions, mortgage, and third-party encumbrances. Tranio is not responsible for the parties involved in the transaction.

What does a dog walker do?
We all know our dogs love going on long, adventure-filled walks, but jobs and family and commuting can make it difficult to give them the leash time they deserve. You can hire a professional dog walker to make sure your furry friend gets adequate exercise and outdoor time each day. A professional dog walker may be an individual contractor or work for a dedicated dog-walking company. In either case, you want to make sure the pro has the appropriate insurance in case of an emergency. Some people opt to give the dog walker a key to their house; others to have them pick up the dog from the yard. Dog walking can happen as often as multiple times per day, or just a few times a month as needed. Here are some questions to ask when you are interviewing a new dog walker:
- Will you or someone else be walking my dog?
- Do you have a backup plan if you can't make it for a scheduled walk?
- Will you walk my dog by itself, or do you walk several dogs at once?
- What are your different walk routes?
- When will you pick up and drop off?
- How will we communicate?
- Do I have to commit to a schedule or are you flexible?
- What's your cancellation policy?
- What's your response plan if my dog gets injured or becomes sick?
- How and how often do I pay you?
- Do you offer package pricing if I buy multiple dog walks up front?
How much do dog walkers charge?
The cost of dog walking depends on several factors including length and frequency of dog walks, the number of dogs on the walk, distance to your house, and any additional services you request. The national average cost range for a dog walk is $10-$20, but that price will vary based on where you live in the country and the regional cost of living and doing business.
The longer the dog walk, the higher your costs will be. Dog walkers offer a range of walk lengths, from 15-minute potty breaks to long hikes of 120 minutes or more. For example, a dog walker may charge $15 for a 15-minute walk and $35 for a 35-minute walk. Requesting that your dog be the only animal on the walk will typically mean a higher cost than if you permit your dog to be walked in a pack of dogs. You may be able to get a discounted rate if you have more than one dog to be walked. For example, a professional dog walker may charge $28 for one dog or $33 for two dogs on a 60-minute walk. If you need additional help — like feeding the dogs or giving them medication — dog walkers may be able to provide this service at an additional fee. Dog walkers may charge higher rates for walking your dogs on holidays.

text: Some brake systems use rear drum brakes instead of rear disc brakes. Drum brake components consist of brake drums, shoes, wheel cylinders, and hardware including springs and self-adjusters. The brake shoes sit against the drum until the brakes are applied. Once applied, brake fluid pushes the wheel cylinders against the brake shoes, which in turn press against the brake drum and create the friction required to stop your vehicle. When you let off the brakes, the springs return the brake shoes back to their original position. This self-adjusting system helps keep the brake shoes in position when the brakes are not applied. As the brake shoes gradually become worn, the self-adjuster compensates for the worn area by adjusting the original position of the brake shoe so that it is closer to the brake drum. Because rear drum brakes serve an important role in slowing your vehicle, it is wise to get them repaired and replaced as necessary. During use, rear drum brakes create a serious amount of heat and friction that can degrade brake components over time. Grinding, screeching, or squealing noises signal worn brake shoes rubbing against the brake drum. Worn springs and an insufficiently lubricated self-adjuster can cause brake shoes to wear down quickly. Rapid and excessive wear may also point to problems with other components. Wheel cylinders that do not receive adequate brake fluid and worn springs that are unable to return brake shoes to their original position are both contributors to worn brake shoes and inevitable rear brake repairs. Because driving on worn rear drum brakes can endanger the life of yourself and other passengers, it is important to repair your brakes as needed. Our rear drum brake repair service can help. We cover rear drum brakes and accompanying components--like brake shoes, wheel cylinders, springs, and self-adjusters--to help ensure maximum drum brake performance.
