Lawsuit Raises Red Flags For Government Cloud Users
Karen Evans,
KE&T Partners
Tuesday, March 25, 2014
A California lawsuit suggests the federal government must take stronger steps to protect government data from data mining and user profiling by cloud service providers. In the technology-rich world we live in, it's critical for everyone to understand how their data is processed and used. For the government, it is arguably even more important, given the massive amounts of sensitive citizen data it possesses and stores.

Coretec Partners with PerspecSys to Provide Australia's First Managed Cloud Data Residency Service
BusinessWire, Wednesday, December 04, 2013
For many businesses and government agencies in Australia and New Zealand, the barriers to cloud computing adoption are actually increasing. While security is still paramount, data privacy and residency (i.e., control over where sensitive data and documents reside) are key concerns, especially in light of strict new laws and regulations. Coretec Solutions, a leading Australian Salesforce solutions consultancy, and PerspecSys, the global leader in cloud data protection solutions for the enterprise, have partnered to create a solution to address these issues: the Secure Local Data Residency as a Service (Secure LDRaaS).

The NSA Disclosures and the Cloud
Paul Rosenzweig,
The Chertoff Group
Thursday, October 24, 2013
The seeming flood of disclosures about the National Security Agency's (NSA) activity sometimes threatens to overwhelm the observer. More to the point, the flood often does more to conceal revelations than it does to expose them. The important things get lost in the wave of less relevant information. That's particularly true of new information about the NSA's encryption and interception activities and how they will affect cloud service providers.

Guiding Principles For Law Enforcement's Transition To Cloud Services
International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), Thursday, January 31, 2013

Seventy-five years ago, a St. Louis widow named Irma Rombauer took her life savings and self-published a book called The Joy of Cooking. Her daughter Marion tested recipes and made the illustrations, and they sold their mother-daughter project from Irma's apartment.
Today, nine revisions later, The Joy of Cooking -- selected by The New York Public Library as one of the 150 most important and influential books of the twentieth century -- has taught tens of millions of people to cook, helped feed and delight millions beyond that, answered countless kitchen and food questions, and averted many a cooking crisis.
Ethan Becker, Marion's son, leads the latest generation of JOY, still a family affair, into the twenty-first century with a 75th anniversary edition that draws upon the best of the past while keeping its eye on the way we cook now. It features a rediscovery of the witty, clear voices of Marion Becker and Irma Rombauer, whose first instructions to the cook were stand facing the stove.
JOY remains the greatest teaching cookbook ever written. Reference material gives cooks the precise information they need for success. New illustrations focus on techniques, including everything from knife skills to splitting cake layers, setting a table, and making tamales.
This edition also brings back the encyclopedic chapter Know Your Ingredients. The chapter that novices and pros alike have consulted for over thirty years has been revised, expanded, and banded, making it a book within a book. Cooking Methods shows cooks how to braise, steam, roast, sauté, and deep-fry effortlessly, while an all-new Nutrition chapter has the latest thinking on healthy eating -- as well as a large dose of common sense.
This edition restores the personality of the book, reinstating popular elements such as the grab-bag Brunch, Lunch, and Supper chapter and chapters on frozen desserts, cocktails, beer and wine, canning, salting, smoking, jellies and preserves, pickles and relishes, and freezing foods. Fruit recipes bring these favorite ingredients into all courses of the meal, and there is a new grains chart. There are even recipes kids will enjoy making and eating, such as Chocolate Dipped Bananas, Dyed Easter Eggs, and the ever-popular Pizza.
In addition to hundreds of brand-new recipes, this JOY is filled with many recipes from all previous editions, retested and reinvented for today's tastes.
This is the JOY for how we live now. Knowing that most cooks are sometimes in a hurry to make a meal, the JOY now has many new dishes ready in 30 minutes or less. Slow cooker recipes have been added for the first time, and Tuna Casserole made with canned cream of mushroom soup is back. This JOY shares how to save time without losing flavor by using quality convenience foods such as canned stocks and broths, beans, tomatoes, and soups, as well as a wide array of frozen ingredients. Cooking creatively with leftovers emphasizes ease and economy, and casseroles -- those simple, satisfying, make-ahead, no-fuss dishes -- abound. Especially important to busy households is a new section that teaches how to cook and freeze for a day and eat for a week, in an effort to eat more home-cooked meals, save money, and dine well.
As always, JOY grows with the times: this edition boasts an expanded Vegetables chapter, including instructions on how to cook vegetables in the microwave, and an expanded baking section, Irma's passion -- always considered a stand-alone bible within the JOY.
This all-new, all-purpose anniversary edition of the The Joy of Cooking offers endless choice for virtually every occasion, situation, and need, from a 10-minute stir-fry on a weekday night to Baby Back Ribs and Grilled Corn in the backyard, or a towering Chocolate Layer Cake with Chocolate Fudge Frosting and Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream. JOY will show you the delicious way just as it has done for countless generations.

I think you're missing the point of the book. Sure the events are mostly from WC3, but from playing the game, I didn't get a sense of why he did what he did. He just seemed to turn evil overnight. The book did an outstanding job explaining his character development little by little, and how he could, for a moment, justify burning Stratholme, etc. Things are not as black and white as we see in the games (WC and WoW), but much more complicated than that, and the book explained it well.

Always thought I was but I was so so wrong. I`ve been taking loads of chill pills and absconded for a couple of weeks, now I`m back.
Two weeks ago my youngest daughter and her best friend were attack, both received head injuries in what the police are calling a motiveless random attack.
Its been a harrowing experience, and I went into shock a few days later.
I seem to still be suffering from what I can only describe as anxiety attacks so I`m still off work and taking loads of meds.
That's terrible Paul. Really sorry to hear that mate.
Get yourself well again.
I hope your daughter and her friend are ok and I wish you a speedy recovery.
Thanks, both the girls are doing ok.
My daughters going to have a nice 2 1/2" scare to the side of her head.
Thats appalling so sorry to hear of this mindless attack but you have brought to the fore the fact that it is not only the girls who are suffering but those close to them aswell. Hope you all get over this as well as you can in the shortest time you can. Thugs never see what the end result is do they?
Quote: It's surprising how often these type of attacks are happening
Yes all the time now.
All I can do now is wait and see what comes of this, the police are working very hard.
Sorry to hear about this Paul, hope you're all well soon.
My eldest son went to a pub on New Year's Eve years ago, and got into a scuffle and the bouncer wouldn't let my son's 2 friends outside with him, so he ended up outside with 3 guys after him. He had the orbital bone around his eye shattered and required extensive plastic surgery, and he still has nerve damage in his face, and a plate in his skull. 16 witnesses kept the bastards there till the police arrived, and they all gave statements. When it got to court, not one witness showed up. The surgeon was there with videos of all the treatment he did, but the judge said no crime was commited. Turns out the bouncer was a cl;ose friend of the guys that beat my son. Wtf can you do?

A video that I made for Scott Mickelson of the band Fat Opie.
Please take some time to head over to Locks Of Love to find out how you can help. They need more than just our hairs.
Clair knew that she shouldn't have responded to the craigslist ad that said "Looking for attractive cupcakes for a free photo shoot." The hungry eyed photographer said that he was trying to build his portfolio of head shots but inside she knew that in just a few tense moments he would begin to insist that she take her wrapper off. She knew that he would compliment her on her sprinkles, tell her she was delicious, he would say anything in the world if he thought that it would help him to take her cherry.
Earl heard the cheap camera flick away behind him and knew that it was time to start the show. Finny always said that she would catch him in the shower one day, so as he peered over his shoulder, water pooling at his feet, he knew what he was going to do next. Drop the towel Earl… Drop the towel and dance.
Some live sketches that I made at the last shut-up songwriters meet-up.
Sketches from our most recent Meet Up. by Tom Rhodes.
My normal approach to releasing songs is to write them, tinker with them in live performances, go to the studio to record them, and then put them out on a record. It seems to me that there are far too many steps between my heart and my mouth in that process so I am going to try it a different way for a bit. This is a new song that I wrote, recorded, and shot a video for in just a couple of days. It's not as polished as I am used to but it sure feels good to get music out quickly, whether or not this new process sells songs is still up in the air.
This song is called "Timeless Love" and the star of the video is Barkley.

Yesterday I ran my first 10k. Actually it was my first race of any kind ever, but it happened to be a 10k. This photo was taken seconds after finishing, and I couldn't have been happier.

Michelle: Stay tuned for a how-to on that cake. Within the next week or two I'll have it up. I did a step by step tutorial but am missing the final picture...so, I'm re-making it and will post it SOON! :)ReplyDelete
Love this bow. Can I make it large? By large I mean 5 inches long and 2.5 inches wide?ReplyDeleteReplies
Just print and scale the pattern accordingly. You'll need to use some rolled up paper towels for support until the bow dries.Delete
I totally agree with Michelle and others, you are so talented and more blessed as you give God the glory in your blogs. You will always overflow with talent. My first time on your blog and am stunned!!! really really impressive!ReplyDeleteReplies

An almost-too-late warning mechanism for currency crises
AbstractWe propose exploiting the term structure of relative interest rates to obtain estimates of changes in the timing of a currency crisis as perceived by market participants. Our indicator can be used to evaluate the relative probability of a crisis occurring in one week as compared to a crisis happening after one week but in less than a month. We give empirical evidence that the indicator performs well for two important currency crises in Eastern Europe: the crisis in the Czech Republic in 1997 and the Russian crisis in 1998.

How effective are Electronic Health Records helping doctors diagnose and successfully treat patients?
The US under the Obama Administration stimulus programs is awarding $42,000 to doctors that implement an EHR system. Americans in general and American medicine in particular is very hi-tech oriented indeed.
In some countries like the US, you can sell technology on its merits, while in others you sell it on entirely different criteria, and Sweden belongs in that latter category.
The merits in our case would be how effective an EHR system is at helping doctors diagnose and successfully treat patients both directly and indirectly. It would do it directly by making it easier to understand what has historically happened to a patient and how to proceed along a scientifically sound path both in diagnosis and treatment. It would do it indirectly by collecting data for prospective studies and providing epidemiological warnings.
But in Sweden, this is not the major criterion for development and purchasing of systems, largely due to a politicized organization where the decisionmakers are highly motivated by concerns that have nothing to do with the direct application of medical care, and where the top decision-makers are laymen as far as medical care goes. It's not an environment that is conducive to either good economy, good efficiency, or good healthcare IT.
In Sweden, this results in a lot of projects that have very little benefit for the actual medical care of the patient, but do have all the characteristics of political posturing, such as patient's access to electronic health care records, massive standardization efforts without declared goals, integration of EHR systems over large areas, investment in cross-border electronic prescriptions, you name it. If it's large, international, expensive, and photogenic, it's on.
On the other hand, projects that would, according to the medical profession, seriously increase the direct medical benefit to the patient, such as revamping the EHR to be guideline oriented, better user interfaces for all the different parts of the EHR system, and improved referral systems, are largely ignored. Swedish healthcare IT is, in short, run by a self-serving bunch of laymen bureaucrats who score political hit points by publicly demeaning the needs expressed by doctors and nurses, and that is no way to run something as important as this.
As doctors and as basically well-meaning developers, what can we do to be allowed to improve healthcare, as we know we can? Can we get rid of the bureaucrats? No, it's the oldest profession in the world, and it will not go away any time soon (you can argue if it's older than the other oldest profession, or basically the same, no matter to me), so we have to work around it.
When we can, we have to make a case that they cannot resist, pretending to be on their side (it's a fair assumption they don't read this, they've ignored us so far), or we have to do without them in the form of skunk-works or as scientific projects, which are largely run by other people. We also have to find a way to either eliminate, or go around, or work together with the major vendors that are now the sole beneficiaries of the bureaucrat's decisions. I'm sure they, in their heart of hearts (it's a leap of faith to assume they have one, but I think they do), would really like to do a good job, but they aren't really prepared to risk the goldmine they've found, so it will take some tact and planning.
The next couple of posts, I'll try to suggest a few tactics we can use. If you have other ideas and you don't want to make them public yourself, send me an email and I'll pretend I thought of it.

We are thinking about going with the Ferrari. Does anybody know if there's a special parking lot to leave the car safely?18th February 2013, 16:43 at 4:43 pm #224725
How does the parking of the car work:
- do you have to make a reservation?
- what are the costs?
- how early do you have to park to get a parking spot not too far from the track?

Delighted that finaly the Nurburgring is on for 2013.
I'm thinking about grandstand 4 or 4a (Mercedes). Can anyone tell which one has a better view? Is it best to sit in the top rows or in the lower rows?

We stayed in a hotel in Dubai during the GP in 2011, cheaper and more cool things to do. You can rent a car and drive up to abu dhabi (1 hour).28th December 2012, 19:38 at 7:38 pm #214212
Any news on the tickets?
Does anyone know the price of the Mercedes Grandstand (4a) in 2011?
How is the parking at Nurburg? Busy? Tickets?28th December 2012, 17:25 at 5:25 pm #217722
Spain pit walk will also be my first. But I did the pit walk in Monaco 2012, and it was great fun but very busy. You can see the cars at close range. I think it usualy starts around 15:00.
Try to find a hotel close to the R2 train line, it runs from the airport to the track. We booked our hotel close to Praca de Catalonia. The hotels will be getting more expensive, so it is wise to make a reservation as early as possible. We have bought tickets at grandstand F to have a great view at the first corner to see some overtaking.28th December 2012, 17:19 at 5:19 pm #210035
Hi Jamie,
Spa is really great, we went to the GP in 2011, and we will be there in 2013 (grandstand Gold8 again)
Like many other tracks the best way is by car. If you have GA, it's best to get there really early (I think it opens by 8am), to get the best "seats"). If you have a grandstand, you can get there later. Parking is easy as you can buy a parking ticket along with the F1-ticket. Leaving the track on sunday will take a while (it took us 1,5hours to get to the highway).
Remember: it can be rainy and cold.

Since the germans are making a mess of the German GP 2013, we're thinking about going to Silverstone next year in stead.
Is stand Village B any good for viewing?
I've got the following "demands":
- covered (you'll never how many cats and dogs it is raining in UK, see 2012)
- high chance of overteaking (usually at the end of a long straight)
- good view on a TV screen (to follow qualifying and the rest of the race)19th November 2012, 19:46 at 7:46 pm #180872
We're going to the Barce GP in 2013 and I'm curious about the train line R2:
- the R2 train line runs from airport to the circuit?
- The T10 is really the best option for a 4day trip?
- how busy is it to catch a train? (our flight is at 22:00, is that possible?)
- How does one get tickets for R2?19th November 2012, 19:35 at 7:35 pm #210980
How about seats at F tribune? Are they any good? Is there a good view on a TV screen as well?
In my experience the best stand for watching the overtaking is at the end of a long straight!
G and H look good, but can you see any overtaking there?

Secrets to Success: 10 Smart Tips for Cooking Chicken
Chicken may be a standard dish for most of us, but how often do you really think about how you prepare it? Kemp Minifie, the former Gourmet editor, tackles chicken basics in her Kemp's Kitchen column in the April 6, 2011 edition of Gourmet Live. What steps are you skipping?
Some of the tips (thoroughly wash your hands after handling poultry) are no-brainers. Others are reminders like always choosing chicken by the most distant sell-by date and cooking it within two days of purchase. One tip directly referenced a bad habit of mine: use a thermometer to check if a chicken is done rather than judging by look. I admit to abusing the "cut and check" method because I have a secret fear that I'll overcook chicken by checking its temperature in the wrong place. Since the USDA dropped the safe temperature for cooked poultry to 165 degrees, overdoing the bird isn't as much of a risk as it used to be (former requirements for 180 degrees usually meant a very dry consistency).
Other tips include getting into the habit of making stock (even from store-bought rotisserie chicken) and making your own chicken liver pâté from otherwise discarded chicken giblets. Check out the article on the iPad; it's enough to cure your chicken blues.

Using chicken stock when roasting a chicken is a key to keeping it most, like you would for cooking a turkey.
I nearly always brine my chicken and I recently started making stock in the crock pot (thanks to a post from The Kitchn) and I LOVE it.
I've never used a thermometer, nor the 'cut and check' method to test for doneness. Roast the chicken at 190 degrees (preheated oven and tray), 18 mins per 500g plus an additional 18 mins. So for a 1.5kg bird, that would be 1hr 12 mins approx. Roasting the chicken on its side, then the other side half way, will help to keep it moist. Rest breast down.
I usually include Alice Waters suggestion of salting the bird prior to cooking. Try to at least do it for a few hours ahead of time. The best flavor results are when it is done 24 hours ahead of cooking - but lets face it I am sometimes not that together.
Like you read for Turkeys, roast the chicken breast side down for a very moist chicken breast.

Of course not!
Journalism is dead, long live blogging! You don't have to have any standards, fact-checking, research or anything at all when you're a blogger. You just post crap left and right and watch the ad money flow in!
The truth is though, for every serious journalist that attempts to publish their writings on a website as a blog, there are 10 of these blogs where the people writing have never been to a j-school, don't have any standards and it just brings the cause of the real blogger down to a level that most people still think of blogs as a joke rather than a serious platform for self-publication that removes the corporate entity from the editorial platform of journalism.
There's a way to provide entertainment while simultaneously not publishing falsehoods and just plain wrong things. Thankfully there are comments that allow people to correct the posters when they do things like this. You don't get that sort of thing in normal journalism so I suppose it balances out in some aspect.

I bred pedigreed cats for five years. The hardest thing about this job is dealing with inevitable tragedies. The best part is that the more you value the animals in your charge - the more valuable they become. It should be noted that people are polarized on the subject of breeding. Some being against it and others for it but very few in the middle. Personally, I think this is irrational and that breeders and animal rescue workers should be able to work together but sadly, this is rarely possible.
Explorers are naturally inquisitive people with a social side. They spend a lot of time in their minds investigating ideas. They tend to be observant and analytical. Though they are very mind-oriented people, they also enjoy team work when the time is right. Explorers spend time creating insights and new ways of expressing ideas, and love to share their findings with others.

Q&A: Is a six-hour plane flight dangerous in early pregnancy?
Is a six-hour plane flight dangerous in early pregnancy?
Most people are concerned about changes in air pressure when flying during pregnancy. But in today's pressurized jet cabins, this is not a problem anymore. What concerns me is the fact that you will be flying for six hours. I have to assume that you'll be flying over water. (Hawaii? Europe?) The problem is that there's a 20-percent chance of miscarriage in any pregnancy. If anything like that were to happen to you in the sky—over water—your only medical care will be what's available on the plane … almost nothing!
I've flown most of the major airlines and an airplane is not a very good hospital (nor should it be.) I've actually been the doctor when the loudspeaker has asked, "Is there a doctor on board?" It's not fun. (The equipment is so lacking on some planes that I now bring my own stethoscope when I fly.)
I would be hesitant about taking a long flight over land, but at least the plane will pass over a large city, a potential pit stop in an emergency, about every hour. But flying over water is taking a risk, not because of the pressure, but because of your distance from medical facilities.

OLE Automation provides a way for Visual FoxPro for Windows to interact with other OLE-compliant applications. Using OLE, the Visual FoxPro program can start a Microsoft Excel session, open a workbook, select a worksheet from the workbook, place data into a cell or range of cells, print a worksheet, save the updated workbook, and close the Microsoft Excel session. This article shows by example how to do just that.
Step-by-Step Example
Examine the Microsoft Excel Help topic "Application Object" and the many topics that are introduced in the Properties and Methods lists of that topic.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is seeking to bar deceptive claims made by websites posing as reputable news sites to entice consumers to buy acai berry weight-loss products. The FTC says these companies are not "news-gathering organizations" and their claims that acai berry supplements can cause rapid weight loss are unsupported. For more information, read the FTC release: "FTC Seeks to Halt 10 Operators of Fake News Sites from Making Claims About Acai Berry Weight Loss Products."
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) issued warning letters to several companies selling unproven products claiming to treat, cure, and prevent sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). These products—such as Medavir, Herpaflor, Viruxo, C-Cure, and Never an Outbreak—violate federal law because the FDA has not evaluated them for safety and effectiveness. Some are marketed as dietary supplements, but the FDA considers them drugs since they are offered for the treatment of disease. More information is provided in the FDA Press Release.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently filed a complaint against POM Wonderful products due to deceptive advertising. POM Wonderful has claimed that its products will reduce (or treat) heart disease, prostate cancer and erectile dysfunction. The FTC says that these claims are not supported by scientific research.
So, what's a health claim and what's considered acceptable advertising as such?
A health claim statement has to have a food substance, food, or dietary ingredient, and a health condition or disease. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved certain health claims that, based on scientific evidence, show a link between a food or supplement and a health condition or disease. Health claims cannot state that a food product or supplement can treat or cure a disease. It may claim to minimize a disease risk; for example, a product advertised as low sodium can state the approved claim that "diets low in sodium may reduce the risk of high blood pressure, a disease associated with many factors."
Health claims shouldn't be confused with structure/function claims. These claims do not have to be approved and reviewed by the FDA, yet they must be truthful in stating that a substance maintains structures and/or functions of the body. We see these claims on many fiber-rich products, like "fiber maintains bowel regularity," or a dairy product stating that "calcium builds strong bones." Unlike health claims, structure/function claims cannot be linked to a health-related condition or disease. Also, an important point to keep in mind: if a dietary supplement label makes a structure/function claim, it must also state this disclaimer: "This statement has not been evaluated by the FDA. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease."
There are also nutrient content claims. These describe the amount of a nutrient in a product. Descriptions such as free, low, high, and rich in are used, or other terms that describe the nutrient content to that of the content in another product, such as reduced, lite, less, or more.
Manufacturing companies want consumers to buy their products. We, as consumers, must be savvy as we try to choose products that are healthy for our families and us. False health claims are used on food products as well as dietary supplements. They claim to help us lose weight, cure diseases, and prevent memory loss. The FDA has not approved claims that focus on the treatment of diseases. They have, however, set forth regulations to authorize health claims after the scientific evidence has been presented and reviewed.
The September 27, 2010 edition of the Wall Street Journal 's Health Blog reports that food giant Nestle' is looking to expand their stake in "functional foods" - foods that might prevent diseases. According to the article, the company is investing over $500 million into research in order to get a foothold into the functional food market. This move comes on the heels of yesterdays news that the Foot Trade Commission (FTC) is suing the maker of a popular pomegranate fruit drink, POM Wonderful LLC, in a widening effort by the government to clamp down on food ads that tout specific health benefits.
It remains to be seen how this will play out.
According to the press release, Nestlé will create a wholly owned subsidiary, Nestlé Health Science, as well as a research body, the Nestlé Institute of Health Sciences, "to pioneer a new industry between food and pharma," the company said in a statement.

The Texas Education
Agency (TEA) today released financial accountability ratings for more than
1,200 school districts and charters across the state. The 2013-2014 ratings are
based on annual financial reports provided to TEA by districts and charters
from the 2012-2013 school year. For
2013-2014, approximately 95 percent of Texas school districts passed with a
FIRST rating of Standard or above.

The Texas Education Agency today released a study regarding
the impact of potential school district consolidation in the state's five largest
counties: Bexar, Dallas, Harris, Tarrant and Travis. The analysis reveals
creation of such mega-districts would increase costs and would not improve
student performance as a result of consolidation.

Maybe this one needs a bit of an explination?
I want to thank Momorodent and all his awesome monster girls for inspiring me to do this, especially his candle girl he posted about a few weeks ago or so.
Remember when I was talking about reskins? Well, I figured one of Candlehead's reskins would be one where she IS somewhat more candle-like.
Gothic loli dress.
Dripping wax hair.
Wick in her head.
Yeah, I'm not very good at this.
Wow, this paper is hella-gritty. It looks so pixelated for some reason. =\

If you've never been to a First Friday Artscrawl, well, that's OK. You've been busy. Work, the kids, your biannual attempt to read Ulysses; such is the busy stuff of life. But an Artscrawl is one of the best ways to see a ton of art, eat some cheese and make new culture-loving friends, finally enabling you to ditch your culture-hating ones. Let them stay at home and watch "Ghost Medium"—you've got better things to do. Openings and receptions are not just happening in Nob Hill, but all around the city. Artscrawlabq.org is the ultimate resource for all of the gallery goings-on for this Friday, Feb. 6.
Topdog/Underdog takes place in a room. A one-room apartment, no bathroom or running water, shared by brothers Lincoln and Booth. Younger brother Booth (Travis Sweatte) provides supplies through a gift for the quick steal, but his attempts to improve his lot with three-card monte are ham-handed and loud. It is older brother Lincoln (Darryl DeLoach) who was once the three-card king, and though he also has tried to make a different life for himself through "legitimate" employment, it's the specter of his old life that hangs over the actions of the play.

Stand for Church
Comments about Deflect-O Deflecto Magazine Size Contemporary Sign Stand, Black:
This stand was ordered for a small church to display their church name and service times. It came in earlier than expected. Very easy to put together. The only thing I did not take into consideration was the weight. The pastor is an older gentleman and he has to take it home after each service. Its a little heavy but the durability will be a plus in the long run. Every item that I have ordered from Staples has been exceeded my expectations and I have ordered alot. I would highly recommend this item to others.
