Back Door Business at Forney City Hall –The Final Facts
Denise Bell
Post Managing Editor
In October 2012, The Forney Post researched and then revealed that Forney Mayor Pro-tem James Hatley and Forney City Manager, Brian Brooks, have for sometime been conducting "back door business" in direct violation of the Texas Government Code.
And like countless times in previous years, Forney City Manager, Brian Brooks, believes that if he can just spin it fast enough the taxpayers will again believe his rhetoric and again ignore his actions.
However, it simply does not matter how City Manager Brooks or Mayor Pro-tem James Hatley dance around their actions or explain away their reasoning, nor does it matter that Brooks has recruited a local website to operate as his mouth piece, the facts are still the facts and they are really very simple.
Fact One:
The Mayor Pro-tem of Forney, James Hatley, has financially benefited from his position on the Forney City Council since May 12, 2006, and in the process he has repeatedly violated Texas Government Code Chapter 171 which establishes the standard for determining when a local official has a conflict of interest that would affect his or her ability to "discuss, decide or vote on a particular item."
Fact Two:
According to City Manager Brooks, James Hatley signed a Conflict of Interest Questionnaire acknowledging his employment relationship with J C Graphics on January 10, 2009.
However, in his endless rush to spin the facts, City Manager Brooks failed to explain to the public that The Forney Post has been supplied dozens of invoices that show payments to J C Graphics starting in May of 2006.
The City Managers office issued the first check to J C Graphics on May 12, 2006 and this would be three years before Mayor Pro-tem Hatley signed the Conflict of Interest Questionnaire, and at a time when the City of Forney was being managed by former Mayor Darrell Grooms and former City Secretary, Odessa Moore.
Fact Three:
Invoice after invoice show print deliveries made by James Hatley to City Hall personnel providing substantial proof that City Manager Brooks is complacent in the arrangement. Brian Brooks repeatedly approved checks payable to J C Graphics in the three years prior to obtaining Hatley's signature on the 2009 Conflict of Interest declaration.
Many City of Forney employees such as Human Resource/Finance Director, Leigh Corsons and Assistant City Manager, Gina Nash, are well aware that City Manager Brooks and Mayor Pro-tem Hately have for years been conducting business and they and many other City Hall employees have been aware for sometime that Mayor Pro-tem Hatley repeatedly continues to "deliberate, discuss and vote" upon issues that he ultimately benefits from.
Mayor Darren Rozell and former Mayor Darrell Grooms were also well aware that James Hatley worked for J C Graphics and although payment after payment was delivered to Hatley, no one at City Hall, not on the Council nor within city administration, ever questioned the legality of the City doing direct and continuous business with an elected Council Member.
And even now that these individuals surely comprehend City Manager Brooks and Mayor Pro-tem Hatley's ongoing business dealings, they continue to remain silent and complacent to the unethical management style of City Manager, Brian Brooks.
Fact Four:
An unsubstantiated article written by an author that does not have enough gumption to claim his own work will not create spin enough to fool the taxpayers of Forney or the authorities of the State of Texas.
As defined by the Texas Government Code, Mayor Pro-tem Hatley has a "substantial interest" in J C Graphics. His substantial interest is determined by the fact that his "income interest is more than 10% of his gross income for the previous year". As a salaried employee he derives more than 10% of his income from J C Graphics.
Fact Five:
Mayor Pro-tem Hatley and City Manager Brooks have repeatedly broken the laws of the State of Texas, as defined by Texas Government Code, Chapter 171, and they could indeed be prosecuted for these violations.
The Texas Government Code specifies that a government official can be prosecuted for "failure to file an affidavit noting a conflict". Mayor Pro-tem Hatley did not file a Conflict of Interest
form during the time period from May 2006 to January 2009 but none the less he conducted business with the City of Forney.
The Texas Government Code also clearly explains that "participating in discussions regarding items for which there is a conflict is prohibited under Local Government Code Section 171.004". Mayor Pro-tem James Hatley has repeatedly violated this section of the Code more times than may be countable.
Ultimately the decision to charge Mayor Pro-tem James Hatley or City Manager, Brian Brooks with violating the Texas Conflict of Interest Laws is at the discretion of Kaufman County District Attorney, Mike McLelland, who is well informed on these violations.
And finally, the undisputable fact is that each and every violation of the Texas Government Code is a Misdemeanor offense that is punishable by a $4,000 fine and/or up to one year in jail.
The average citizen committing a misdemeanor offense would be arrested. And should the average citizen repeatedly commit the same crime, willingly and knowingly, the authorities in the State of Texas would arrest and prosecute the offender.
But then again, how often are politicians or government officials held to the same standard as average citizens?
The below invoices were obtained by Public Records requests directly from the office of City Manager, Brian Brooks.

Do they go after all servers, or just those with high bandwidth?
seemingly, all
Even if it's 500,000 hits of text pages (no graphics)?
even if it's for 1 hit of 1 text page.
They claim that they're not crazy aggressive on the casual servers. But 500,000 hits is a lot of traffic, small pages or not. They'd take you out for that.
Hmm... total transfer a month: 300mbThat's what 500,000 hits amount to... 300mb... not even half a movie, that people share on kazaa and the sort.
Ive uploaded about 2 gigs in 24 hours --...:::M.A.U.1.0.8:::...
what if you put the webserver on another port?there is no way of tracing that then is there?unless they do a full port scan...
said by xRAGEx:what if you put the webserver on another port?there is no way of tracing that then is there?unless they do a full port scan...
how often do they do these scans?
I have ran an FTP on Shaw first, then on Rogers, on a high port 54XXX I have never had a problem. and I used to use a LOT of bandwidth. Not for the past year though, its mostly for me if I want to get to my files from anywhere else. Right now serving off an FTP on 192k cap is useless anyway hehe...--Crunch for »www.team-discovery.com/
Found this posted over at RBUA.
quote:On February 22nd, Peter Hope-Tindall ( a RBUA senior member) and Chris Weisdorf (President and Technical Director RBUA) met briefly Rogers management on the server issue. Dermot O'Carroll (SVP of Network Eng. and Ops.) and Nancy Cottenden (Manager of Media Relations) were there in person, with Vic Pollen (SVP of Customer Care) and Taanta Gupta joining in via conference call. It was explained to us (RBUA: Weisdorf/Hope-Tindall)that running servers were misinterpreted and that their policy of allowing casual servers to operate has not changed. Only abusive servers are at risk for disconnection. Everyone else is safe.
Interesting. So running an anonymous FTP on port 21 wouldn't get you a call from Rogers? hehe...--Crunch for »www.team-discovery.com/
loli used to run a huge ftp on port 21 like more then a year ago... no1 ever said nothing... i uploaded around 15gb/mo and downloaded like 20i did get trojaned or hacked... my computer got shut down or it somehow opened a site... like www.nopiracy.com or something like that... i remeber it was agaist piracy... then i got a firewall and i still got shut down... but i logged the ip and the port they were connecting to and blocked it... it was a french ip tho, not rogers...

Fuxian Lake (fǔ xiān hú 抚仙湖) is located in the area connecting Chenjiang (chéng jiāng 澄江), Jiangchuan (jiāng chuān 江川) and Huaning (huá níng 华宁) counties. It is about 60 kilometers from Kunming (kūn míng 昆明). The total area of Fuxian Lake valley is 1,084 square kilometers. Here, the land is fertile and abounds with various local products: rice, wheat, broad beans, tobacco and rape-seed. It is the well-known center of Yunnan tobacco in China. It is a glittering pearl in the Yunnan-Guizhou plateau.
Located at the foot of the Yinshan Mountains (yīn shān 阴山), and on the bank of the Yellow River, Baotou (bāo tóu 包头) is the largest industrial city in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The city's Mongolian name means "place with deer", and an alternate name in Chinese is "Deer City" (lù chéng 鹿城). map
Temples is the symbolization of the long history and rich culture of China, and are regarded as valuable art treasures. Generally speaking, temple is not only related to Buddhism. However, in Buddhism, there are many kinds of titles for temple: such as "Temple", which does not refer to Buddhist temple. Official residences were known as Temple since the Qin Dynasty (qín cháo 秦朝). In the Han Dynasty (hàn cháo 汉朝), the living place of the monks from the West also known as Temple. From then on, temple has become professionals of Chinese Buddhist architecture gradually. It also can be said that when Buddhism spread to China, Chinese people called t the Buddhist architecture as temple so as to show respect for Buddhism.
Vaccination Requirements
Currently there are no required immunizations for travel to China, but check with your local consulate to make sure this policy has not changed. Depending on how long you are staying in China and whether you will be spending your time in urban or rural areas, there are different vaccinations that are recommended by travel health specialists. Discuss your travel needs with a doctor that specializes in travel medicine. Universities often have travel clinics that provide a less expensive way of getting your vaccinations. The most useful vaccinations for China are hepatitis A, hepatitis B, tetanus/diptheria, Japanese encephalitis, and typhoid fever. Some doctors also recommend getting a rabies shot and taking malaria pills.
For up-to-the-minute information on vaccination requirements and disease information, call the International Traveler's Hotline in Atlanta at (404) 332-4559, which is sponsored by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. This service regularly updates its recorded message for each country.

Looking for a recipe that uses a *lot* of Parmesan
- t
- Tom from Durham Nov 14, 2004 08:40 PM
Unbeknownst to each other, the missus and I both picked up big honking hunks of Parmesan cheese on recent shopping trips. We're talking two 1.5 pound slabs, more than we can reasonably use for grating on soups, salads, pastas, etc. I want to transform this into an opportunity, so I'm looking for recipes that will help me take advantage of my unplanned bounty. Suggestions for any course from appetizers to dessert will be appreciated.
re: foodfiend
Yes, I was thinking along the same lines--that way you can really savor the parmesan flavor. I believe that those type of bites are very good served before dinner w/ a chilled glass of champagne...
Or check out this recipe from marthastewart.com for a savory parmesan shortbread that is served at London's Savoy during tea--YUM!
Here's a recipe that uses 3/4 cup and is quite good...Parmesan Polenta with Ham...pretty tasty. Link below.
re: Sara Z
These "chips" are great! Try adding a little cracked black pepper, or smoked paprika, or other spices to bring the chips to an even higher level.
Pesto's a good way to use up Parmesan, though finding fresh basil may be difficult at this time of the year (or a little expensive). However, I've made parsley pesto for pasta with good results!
re: DeeDee
Hey Deedee,
I think the best answer to that would be, "whaddya got?" Cheese and wine is really a personal preference. Here is my basic rule of thumb (it has worked well in the past) Cheese I have on hand + wine I have on hand = always yummy! One notable exception is marble cheese with a bottle of Matteus some one brought to my house, yuck! They weren't invited back.
All joking aside, I love cheese and with parm, I would recommend a good Chardonnay over a red. To make sure I wasn't way off base I checked on www.gourmetsleuth.com (very useful).
re: DeeDee
Well I generally have this at the end of a meal, so I am finishing off whatever we had with the main.
Typically a good Barbera, or some type of Nebbiolo, or an Amarone,would all work. But not Chianti, IMHO. I had an excellent red (Inferno??) from the Valtellina the other day which would have been great with some Parmesan.
I have a fantastic recipe for Chicken Breast Piccata Florentine out of the Whole Food Market Cookbook. The recipe creates this wonderful thick crust around the chicken. It calls for 3/4 cup of grated parmesan for two breasts. I think I doubled that.
2 eggs
3/4 cup parmesan
2 cups of chopped spinach
2 teaspoons italian herbs
2 garlic cloves (I used more)
2 teaspoons of salt
1 teaspoon of pepper
2 whole boneless breast, cut in half and pounded
Dredge the breasts in flour and then mix the rest of the ingredients and dip the breasts. Fry in olive oil (3 minutes per side). Keep in a warm oven. They are fantastic. Rich, but wonderful. Good luck!
How about cacio e pepe(sp?)...I know that it's traditionally made with pecorino romano, but I've parm. on occasion & it makes an interesting variation. Just toss hot pasta with grated cheese & lots of freshly grated black pepper.
Minestrone (sorry the measurements eldue me, but you can't mess this one up too bad):
melt a lot of butter and olive oil over low/medium heat, add (in order as you prepare them) diced onion, then carrot and celery, then shredded cabbage and diced potato, then canned whole tomatoes (squish them w/ your hands). Cover with water, and bring to a boil, and let simmer over low heat for a while, just bubbling. Add chopped green beans and/or red kidney beans. Simmer some more. 2-3 hours total is best. A few minutes before serving, stir in a whole lot of grated parmesan. (You can also add elbow macaroni). Salt and pepper to taste, serve with some crusty Italian bread and a good red wine, and some more grated parmesan on the side, and possibly some chopped italian parsley.
This is also a good recipe for using old parmesan rinds (which keep in the freezer), add one or two when you add the water.
Even better the next day.
My favorite uses for Parmesan cheese are:
Fettucine Alfredo
Spaghetti Carbonara
Fricos - I love making a bunch and folding them like a taco shell as it cools and then stuffing it with salad.
I also like to bread chicken tenders with a mixture of grated parm. and bread crumbs and then pan fry them. It even works with chicken parm.
My Favorite Pasta Salad
1 lb Rigatoni
2 cups fresh tomatoes, chopped
1/2 c vegetable oil (I use a little less)
1/2 c Seasoned Rice Wine Vinegar
1 tsp oregano
3/4 tsp ground pepper
1/4 tsp salt
handful or two of Marianni Julienned Sundried Tomatoes
8 oz shredded parmesan
4 tsp fresh basil
2 cloves finely chopped garlic
Cook pasta, mix in other ingredients, adding the basil last. Place in the fridge and let flavors meld. This tastes better the next day or at least after some hours of melding in the fridge.
make cheese chips..alton brown demonstrated on his food network show on cheese..
place small mounds of grated cheese on a cookie sheet covered with a non-stick mat. add whatever herbs you like. don't have the exact recipe..all recipes from shows on food network website..
looked delicious..can cook and save for later..

SCIO, NY (WKBW) -- The water has finally receded in the Southern Tier after dozens of roads were flooded and closed over the weekend.
The Village and Town of Wellsville had more than 25 roads closed and even declared a state of emergency. All roads but one have been reopened.
In Scio, Route 10 has been reopened but officials warn they are still trying to repair many streets that were flooded and are asking drivers to travel with caution. "Black top torn off, and some debris in the road that needs to be watched for," Pete Farwell, the Scio Highway Superintendent, said.
"Just trying to get these roads passible, could take weeks before we get all the damage taken care of," Dan Fleming, the Scio Town Supervisor, said. "The ditches along the side took so much water...just washed {roads} right out."

Goa gears up for Lusofonia Games
The much awaited Lusofonia Games 2014 will kick off at Fatorda stadium in South Goa Saturday evening as the event, spread across 12 days, will feature 12 countries namely Angola, Brazil, Cape Verde, East Timor, Equatorial Guinea, Guinea- Bissau, Goa (India), Macau (China), Mozambique, Portugal, Sao Tome and Principe and Sri Lanka.
Athletes from these countries will compete in nine different sporting disciplines - Athletics, Basketball, Beach Volleyball, Football, Judo, Table Tennis, Taekwondo, Volleyball and Wushu. Over 800 athletes and officials are expected to participate in the Games.
The Games and the action will be thrown open to the people of Goa and the Lusofone world at a glittering ceremony at the Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru stadium at Fatorda on Saturday, January 18th where over 2000 artistes will perform acrobatics and dances amidst a spectacular light show and other eye-catching events.
Considered as the biggest sporting event in the state's history, it will be held across six key venues including the two newly renovated at Fatorda - the venue for the opening and closing ceremonies and Tilak Maidan stadium in Vasco.
Three other state-of-the art venues include the Multi-Purpose Indoor Stadium at Peddem, which will host Judo, Wushu, Table Tennis and Taekwondo disciplines. A new stadium dedicated to athletics at Bambolim will host all track-and-field events, while another new facility called the Dr Shyam Prasad Mukherjee stadium located on the Goa University Campus in Taleigao, will host Basketball and Volleyball matches.
The organisers say that a modern temporary facility erected at the beautiful Miramar beach will be the venue for the Beach Volleyball matches that are expected to add sizzle and attract a lot of attention during the Lusofonia Games 2014.
The Lusofonia Games 2014 is the third edition of the Portuguese Commonwealth Games. The first two were held in Macau (China) 2006 and in Lisbon in 2009.

We did something fun, and we are in for more!
FYI, there are photographers, stylists, graphic artist, videographers in this team. Go figure what we're up to ;)
From earlier today with some of my favorite people. Gotta love growing and working with this bunch!
The three of us have this thing of spoiling ourselves once we find a valid reason. Christmas and New Year are perfect reasons to have, so why not? :)
It's nice to talk to someone who shares the same ideas as you have. We laughed about our pasts, rant and shared what we love about our careers, and laid out a timeline for ourselves and us three; over a bottle of red wine and Korean dish.
I know, we sound old. Well we are not getting any younger,
hence our young faces may fool people, so why not do aging with class. Yeah?
Gelo having fun knowing about "Vangie" of iPhone 4S. Haha! Real Vangie app soon please?
Kars showing off his baby bangs to match his wrinkled nose. :| You should have bangs as well Gelo! XD
And yes, I trimmed my own bangs.
Let's continue to laugh off our problems together, as we claim our goals like it's a walk in the park. Cheers! :)
Last Wednesday after work, me and my buddies off to meet up at Kyss for a certain boy.
The traffic from The Fort to Makati. And it's not even Friday night!
Gah! I love that the place is screaming with color RED! :D
[Photos below are from RP Events]
The whole gang all present for the boy in blue shirt. Belated happy birthday dear Ken! :)
Last weekend was spent moving out from one flat to another plus attending one of my first friends from college, Sheena's wedding held at San Rafael Bulacan.
Kars, April and me, all giddy the moment we settled ourselves at the backseat.
At North Luzon Express way. That's Ken and Bianx in front.
With April and Ken, while Bianx was asking a random "animated" guy for directions.
Brand new Philippine Peso bills, from April's purse. :)) How come I never received one EVER? /pft
Too bad we weren't able to make it to the Church. We were too lost and too late. Boo.. :(
This was the one who hello-ed to us at reception venue. B-E-A-U-tiful!
April, me, Ken and Bianx :D
Bianx and I planned on wearing summer maxi dresses for the wedding! Matching outfits is like!! XD
Finally! We were able to steal Sheena from everyone and her hubby Ian! :)) We haven't seen her in ages, and this was the first wedding we all attended from college. Yay!
We are super happy for you Shinx! We will see you soon, right? ;)
After running for Nat Geo and swimming, off we go to pig out at Mercato! Hooray for Sunday's best!!! :D
The whole gang: Audrey, Kars, Ken and Bianx ♡
This is how me and Kars wait for our orders while hungry.
[From top, clockwise: tuna crunchy maki and gyoza from Red Kimono; chocolate malted turtle from TGIF; and my empty plate]
Met up with my college loves. Hooray hooray for finding time to be together! Next time, let's be somewhere quiet for more awesome chit chats. Yes? /like
That's Tian-Di. Has a residential front, a restaurant slash buffet inside and has a club underneath.
Yep, you got me right. Underneath. Cool? Wait until I share to you guys how to get there: Upon entry a cozy feel of the resto will welcome you, walking thorough will lead you to a comfort room = dead end, sit on the chairs nearby and wait for someone to open the passage. Kidding! You can do that or open the blank white wall yourself that will show you the stairs leading you to the underground club! :D
Left: Charlotte and me at the spa section of the club. Yes, there's a spa in this club, plus a jacuzzi too! Awesome right? ● Right: With one of my lovies hanging out for fresh air at the venue's foyer.
Welcome to the underground club!
Left: With my blockmate from college, Marvs! I haven't seen him in ages! ● Right: My schoolmate from high school to college, Therese. I believe we are neighbors now!
No other way to make Pam's birthday celebration any more funner, is to play Jenga! Guys, let us have another Jenga night please? :)
Right: Pam the birthday girl and Kars the soon to be birthday boy.
Some of the the two three fruity gang: Marvs, Me, Pam, Bianca, Ara, Therese and Charlotte.

Thanks a bucket Pam for getting us together!!! Tian-Di experience was awesome!
An out of nowhere meet-up, with two of my favorite people and forever group mates in our four years stay in college; Kars and Issa. ♡
Since it is Friday, why not eat and be thankful for this spontaneous dine-out? TGIF indeed!
Reunited! It has been a while since these two last saw each other. Ayiiii.. Hahaha!
Super happy to hang with her again! I consider her as my little sister, who apparently wears more make-up and dresses sexier than I do. ;)) Stay gorgeous sis!
PS: I need to learn fixing myself more. I look too nene whenever I'm beside my friends! XD
Fried mac and cheese
Seafood platter
Friday's sundae
TGIF's food didn't really amaze me, everything I ate here (even before) were all usual, except for their huge servings of dessert. Yay! I got one more added to my list where to get sugar high!
A night full of laughters, food, reminiscing and pure friendship with endless topics to laugh more about.
Note: This is the best way to beat rush hour on a weekend. Catch up with friends, have a good time, until the terrible traffic subsides. Yes? :))
Thank God it's Fridate! Yay!
Lovelite. Ang takbuhan pag may tawag ng sikmura nung kolehiyo.

When Gavin Escobar was drafted in the second round of the 2013 draft it was assumed he was the future Witten. You don't need to have seen Escobar last year to realize he's not going to compare. He's a different beast to Witten altogether. Escobar's 6-6 frame is longer and leaner than Witten who is 6-5 and heavier at 257lbs. Although Witten isn't a mow them down type of blocker, he does the job. The problem with Escobar last year was he wasn't effectively able to stop his opponent. Escobar has been trying to address his physicality over the break, returning to mini camp noticeably stronger. Jason Witten appeared suitably impressed saying:
"We know he can run the seams and can do some things in the passing game, but we need him to be solid in there. He's worked hard. To see that package grow for him and being out on the field is going to be a lot better because he can now do both…I'm proud of him. I know he's worked hard. It's paying off for him and I think his role will continue to grow. We need that. We need that not only in the slot, but we need that other guy up the middle."
A stronger more forceful Escobar will result in more time on the field, which going into his second year can only be a positive thing. As Cowboys fans we're being unfair in instantly expecting Escobar to live up to Witten's lofty abilities. New passing co-ordinator Scott Linehan acknowledges as much:
"The things he needs to work on, let's work on those things but let's not start with the idea he's not getting on the field until he masters his weaknesses, because he's got strengths"
A rookie from college isn't going to be the finished article. From the first pick to the undrafted guys- they've all got learning to do. Escobar struggled physically last year and has worked to address that, now the coaches must do their job in developing him further. With just nine receptions in his rookie year, Escobar isn't suddenly going to rock into double figure receptions each game in 2014. But if his acrobatic touchdown against Philadelphia Eagles last year is anything to go by we ought to see some progress. Get an improvement on his blocking abilities, then his receiver like skills could flourish. Tight end coach Mike Cope has been particularly complimentary about Escobar's qualities:
"He's got a fly trap for hands, he has tremendous catching ability. He's got those basketball-type skills. He can contort his body and make the acrobatic catches. He's a very, very high percentage catcher. If the ball gets to him, he can adjust to it. And he's very brave running down the field. Because he's a big target, they can hit about any part of the three feet on him. He's courageous."
We entered the 2013 season expecting to see the Cowboys use the multi-tight end 12 personnel package- hence the drafting of Escobar. Only the Houston Texans (42.06%) and the Cincinnati Bengal's (42.32%) used the 12 package on more plays than the Cowboys (37.69%) last year, but you have to question how effectively used it was. Until Escobar gets on the field for more plays, I can't see an increase in the amount the 12 package is used, or it's effectiveness.
Witten is as inspiring off the field as he is on it. He's a hardy trainer, mentally resilient and a quietly inspiring leader. Escobar may not be ready for the every down limelight yet, but who better to shadow then Witten? If as assumed we can have another two-three years of a consistent Witten whilst gradually increasing the plays Escobar. This can soften the blow of losing our future Hall of Famer. Long term Escobar may not be the answer, but as a second round draft investment the Cowboys must do more to coax the potential from him.

The number 1 priority in the offseason for Tom Telesco and the San Diego Chargers was to fix the offensive line issues that haunted us the last couple of seasons. Tom Telesco had to make sure that Philip Rivers would be able to stand comfortably in the pocket and toss the rock out to his receivers. It sure looks like Tom Telesco and have done a good job to get Philip a little more time. Now we will have to see how Philip responds.
The offensive line has some monstorous men holding down the tackle positions. DJ Fluker is a massive rookie, standing at 6-foot-5 330 pounds, on the right side of the line. Now we just brought in Max Starks to take hold of the left tackle position and he is 6-foot-8, 345 pounds. That is some meat on the end of that line.
On the inside we have Jeromey Clary sliding in from right tackle to take over the guard position and Chad Rinehart will be given the chance to be the starter at left guard. At center, we have Mr. Reliable Nick Hardwick holding it down.
Compare the line today against the line at the end of the year last season:
LT Max Starks > Mike Harris/Kevin Haslam
LG Chad Rinehart or a sack of potatoes > Tyronne Green
C Nick Hardwick = Nick Hardwick
RG Jeromey Clary < Louis Vasquez
RT DJ Fluker > Jeromey Clary
We needed to make upgrades and we did across the line and Tom made sure to bring in fresh talent at all positions. Jeromey Clary still has to adjust, but he could be just as good as Louis Vasquez.
For depth and versatility across the line, King Dunlap can play 4 positions on the line and Rich Ohrbberger can play guard or center. Mike Harris will be able to play tackle on either side and Brandyn Dombrowski can be moved all along the line.
All that meat up front should be able to bust a few holes open for Ryan Mathews and Danny Woodhead. The running backs need to become a threat on offense to give Philip even more help. Things on offense are looking up. Hopefully are Philip isn't completely shell shocked and can put up those Pro Bowl numbers again.

hopeless romantic + torch singer + old soul

My dog is collapsed on his side behind my chair, snoring lightly with each little puff of air. Yet, here I am, staring blankly at my computer screen, contemplating as of why I am even still up at this hour. As of early summer, my days have started early. Yes, I know better than this, my head should be heavy a top of my small pile of deflated pillows. Instead, my mind is buzzing with chatter, making it quite difficult to ease into a peaceful slumber.
So much running through my mind…

SEATTLE (AP) — The King County Sheriff's Marine Unit can now impound the vessels of boaters suspected to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
The county council unanimously approved a new law this week giving the sheriff's office the new authority.
Sheriff John Urquhart says the new law gives Marine Unit another tool to hold boaters accountable.
The King County Sheriff's Marine Unit patrols the waters of Lake Washington, Lake Sammamish, the Puget Sound and many other rives and small lakes.
The new law also gives the unit the authority to impound drifting or unattended vessels.

Wife Thought Of A MfmI asked my wife if she ever thought about having sex with 2 men after she left in 2009. We're getting back together now, so there's alot of things I'm asking her. She said, "Oh yeah, definitely!" Just like that. She mentioned there was an opportuntiy once, but nothing happened. Sge said she was open to it alot, and maybe still is. I'm not going to push her, rather I'm going to just let things happen, by planting seeds. She asked if I would, and of course i said yes, but won't touch the other guy. I'm bi-curious, but that hasn't been a goal of mine. Well, summer is around the corner and we already talked about the short skirts, no panties at work for her. Then coming home on the NYC subway, very adventurous, and erotic. The thought that someone might get a peek of her beautiful ***** drives me crazy. That doesn't include going out on a saturday night with no panties. I love this new relationship we have and its getting better.
Smile4Her 36-40, M 4 Responses 4 Feb 15, 2011
Thanks for the hot story! Hope this keeps you two together. Nothing like being in love with a woman who is your best friend!
That is awesome that you have reconnected. Bonus that she has some awesome stories from your seperation to boot!
yeah I was going to ask if you want to be one of the guys in the mmf w/ her! = )
when a relationship opens up as opened, there are a lot of what if's and should i's! the both of you need to lay out your own boundaries and respect the others! it will be a learning curve! be patient and don't expect a lot in the beginning! in time. it will be very rewarding! good luck!

How Doctors Die 646
from the self-healing-fail dept.
Whether you want to see all of the political information on screen or not is one thing, but Starship Troopers turned the political segments into a straight parody of Heinlein's views. You shouldn't piss on the author while making his book into a movie.
As far as his views in ST being fascist, I disagree. They're not mainstream, but not totalitarian either. There was a democracy, you just had to earn the right to participate through community service. I'm not 100% sold on the idea, but it has some merit.
I agree with you. They're not only creating jobs, they're creating jobs for stupid people, which is the hardest kind of job to create.
If his doctor told him to start jogging would the government buy him new Nikes?
Man with hammer sees nail.
IANAL, and you are, but it seems to me that there are two issues here.
What is a reasonable estimation of damages?
Does the statutory damage award have to bear some resemblance to the damages.
Gore and Campbell appear to only address the second question. The first is still very open. I don't think either side is arguing that correctly. To me $21 is just as wrong as $675000(though possibly less damaging to society). The real answer lies somewhere in between, but both lawyers are arguing the interpretation most beneficial to them(probably cause that's their jobs). In my mind the judge should put damages at some estimated seeding ratio * number of songs * punitive multiplier. I think 10*21*3=$630 would be about right. That's enough to be a deterrent to most, but not enough to ruin someones life for a trivial offense.
Google "capitalism" sometime. Its amazing the things people will create to try and make money.
And what if the domain name you wanted wasn't actually available?
I'm particularly not crazy about stem cells being cultivated, and possibly embryos destroyed, for frivolous treatments.
I'm not particularly crazy about you not realizing that this has nothing to do with embryos even though the article summary(not even the article itself), mentions twice that the stem cells don't come from embryos.
First off, not only did you not RTFA, but you couldn't even read the headline. The whole point of the article is that AT&T is *NOT* going to turn off your service without a court order.
As far as them being jerks for sending you a letter, I would think you'd like the heads up that whatever you're doing(legal or not) is drawing the attention of the RIAA. This is about the best policy one could hope for from an ISP.

Kim Kardashian to Piers Morgan: More Money, More Problems!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
While the world's collective jaw remains dropped at how much Kim Kardashian spent on a watch recently, the reality star defended herself to Piers Morgan this week by saying she gives 10% of all earnings away.
"There's a charity that I work with a lot, The Dream Foundation, and my mom has helped create a church [in Calabasas], so we help fund that," she says.
Of course, Kim didn't shut up after that, going on to make an asinine statement about what life is like as a mega rich person: "I get [what they mean] when they say more money, more problems. I definitely get that, but we have a great team of people that help us manage everything."
Note to Kim: Absolutely no one says that. It was a lyric in a Notorious B.I.G. song. Your biggest problem each day is deciding which company to shill for on Facebook.
In the clip below, meanwhile, Kourtney Kardashian is placed on the spot when asked what she'd say tomorrow if Scott Disick proposed:
I did'nt say I hated them,I don't, I don't care enough about them to hate them. I said they were moronic. As for reading about them when we dislike them let me put it this way- it' much like driving by a car wreck, you know if you look at it you might see something that will disgust you but somehow you almost always look anyway.
all the hatred and there are people still writing on here - about people they hate - when i hate someone its like they dont exist - and i'd never read about them or write about them - but HG she's helping you sell your little gossip blog huh?? hmm so who's worse her or you for writing about her when you obviously hate her so much?
id rather have more cash
Between the two of these idoits they don't add up to a 2 digit I.Q. Keep your mouths shut ladies, everything that comes out is moronic.
Boatshit interrogating boatshit within America. Too bad for boatshit that no one watches this show. Very, very bad for them.

Engineer, Heal Thyself!
This is a fascinating article that came to me by way of MAKE Magazine who found it on UK site theEngineer. It involves an engineer in the UK building his own aortic prosthesis to overcome a condition known as Marfan syndrome, an inherited disorder that affects the connective tissue of the body. It was causing this fellow's aorta right below the heart to expand like a balloon to the point where it was at risk of popping and causing a fatal heart attack. The doctors gave him a choice of either risking the sudden catastrophic heart attack or undergoing surgery to replace that section of aorta with a mechanical valve that would lead him taking Warfarin for the rest of his life.… Read the rest
Too Much Stickout Can Ruin Your Day (And Your Cutter & Job!): Use G-Wizard to Check It
Somewhere early in my machining background I internalized the virtues of minimizing tool stick out. I remember very early purchasing a set of screw machine length twist drills just because they were shorter and less likely to flex than the jobber length many are used to from the hardware store. I could see and feel the difference quite easily. I also don't buy many long cutters–they cost more money and you're tempted to hang those lovely flutes out there too far.
But, not everyone has had the evils of excess stickout ingrained. Recently I was reading a post over on PM by a machinist who was unhappy at G-Wizard because he'd broken his endmill after running some feeds and speeds he got from it.… Read the rest
Knowledge-Based Machining Comes to G-Wizard!
Knowledge-based machining comes to the G-Wizard Calculator with the latest release 1.026. The Cut Knowledge Base is now live. It's a special purpose database where you can record your experience with various cutting parameters as an aid to tuning up your feeds and speeds.
"Knowledge-Based Machining" is a popular buzzword in the high-end CAM market today because it involves capturing a shop or machinist's best practices and making it easy to reuse the best practices on all jobs. Every time we make a cut, we have the chance to try something new and perhaps learn from it. If you record the data, it'll be there for you when you need to know what worked and what didn't.… Read the rest

Custom Tool Data for a Sandvik R390 90 Degree Face Mill
G-Wizard has the ability to import custom tooling data so you can set it up with your manufacturer's recommended surface speed and chipload. Our list of downloadable tool profiles is available on the download page. It can make quite a difference. For example, here is a 2 1/2″ wide cut, 0.050″ deep in 4140 with the Sandvik R390 and CT1030 grade inserts:
614 rpm and 14.7 ipm…
The default facemill data for the same cut would have us using running 217 rpm at 9.8 IPM. That's a material removal rate of 1.2 versus the 1.8 ci/minute with the factory data. It pays to set up at least your "big gun" and most commonly used cutters with the factory data to get that little extra performance potential from them.… Read the rest
New WordPress Theme and Migration Plan
I notice the traffic over on the WordPress blog has been picking up steadily. Just so you know what's up with that, it's a copy of the content from www.cnccookbook.com's blog presented with more traditional blogging software (WordPress). The original blog (and I can't tell which one you're reading so the wording is awkward!) has each page hand crafted in Dreamweaver. That's great for the project or cookbook "recipe" pages, but we don't gain much doing that for the blog. Hence I want to ultimately quit hand crafting blog pages to free up more time to do the other stuff (can I get a "Yay"?).… Read the rest

10 Questions You Could Answer If You Had a Cut Knowledge Base
First question you might like to answer is, "What the heck is a Cut Knowledge Base?"
Simply put, a Cut Knowledge Base (hereafter referred to as a "Cut KB") is a way of organizing your notes about what worked and what didn't to make it easy to answer all sorts of interesting questions. All good machinists keep notes and try experiments to see what they can learn and improve on. If you're doing a job that involves a manufacturing a lot of parts, you have an opportunity to do some experiments on successive runs to try to improve your productivity and drive down costs.… Read the rest

This is by no means are whole archive since it ties back to my WordPress.com site that has only the more recent postings. It will grow steadily over time, though as I am committed both to writing new posts (natch!) and to backfilling the WordPress archives until I have it all moved over. Do keep in mind that WordPress is an experiment right now and the www.cnccookbook.com page remains the main event. WordPress is there for me to experiment with layouts (I probably won't stick with the rather dark one that's there as I write this) and to provide folks a place to get an RSS feed for CNCCookbook.… Read the rest
Got a Good Start on a Pig Trough…
But, seeing as how I don't own any pigs, I decided to call it a chip pan for my mill enclosure instead. After getting a note from a reader that got me to looking over my enclosure idea notebook, I couldn't resist getting started. Just a couple of progress photos for now, but I'll write up the whole thing once it's done. My brother runs a picture framing business, so he handles the woodworking end of our projects… Takes a pretty good sized trough for the IH Mill!
You know they'd be happy in that chip pan!… Read the rest
The Short List for Online Marketers at Small Businesses
My other blog is about entrepreneurship in the technology startup world (not to mention Cloud Technology, Mobile Computing, and Social Networks) and I'm a serial entrepreneur who has done 5 companies so far with a sixth (right here, baby!) underway. As such, I follow a lot of small business and entrepreneurship resources–I subscribe to nearly 200 blogs for that information. A number of our readers here at CNCCookbook run a manufacturing business of one kind or another. Some of them are running job shops while some are manufacturing their own products. As a result, I try to pass along a little small business wisdom every now and again, but not so much as to detract from the overall theme of CNCCookbook.… Read the rest
Amazing Projects with CamBam
Some of the lower end CAM programs are capable of some amazing work. Here are some samples done with CamBam: A 747 made from aluminum. Very cool 3D work! Watch chassis with "tabs" for fixturing… Watch part… There is the part installed… CamBam scored pretty well on the CAM Survey (below). I'm starting to see why!… Read the rest
Idea Notebooks
CNCCookbook is nothing if not one big idea notebook, but I keep special pages I call idea notebooks for things I haven't built yet, but expect to and want to collect notes for. I've got a number of different idea notebooks including: CNC Control Panels: What should be on your control panel? Coolant Collars: A handy way to dispense flood coolant that clamps to your spindle. Mill Fixture Plate: Makes modular fixturing and setups a snap. Souping up a Drill Press: Something to be productive on while your CNC mill is chugging away on its own. Press Brake Attachments for your Press.… Read the rest

The script was set. The Montreal Canadiens versus the New York Rangers, two Original Six teams in the Eastern Conference Final. Carey Price versus Henrik Lundqvist in a rematch of Sochi's gold-medal game. It almost seemed too good to be true and evidently it was, but who doesn't like a small twist in the plot now and then.
A collision with Chris Kreider brought an end to Carey Price's series and just like that, the script and the Habs' chances at a Stanley Cup birth seemed to be thrown out the window after the Rangers handed Dustin Tokarski and his team a 3-1 loss in Game 2.
Darlene Tokarski, Dustin's mother, said in an interview with CBC's Hockey Night in Canada that even his grade-two teacher knew there was something special about her son.
This kid has been special alright. Tokarski has been a model of consistency for the Canadiens after recording a loss in his playoff debut and despite losing a heartbreaker in overtime in Game 4 Sunday night.
A tired Andrei Markov and Alexei Emelin couldn't clear the puck in the defensive zone after the Canadiens spent almost the first five minutes of overtime in the Rangers end. Carl Hagelin caused the turnover and sent a pass to a wide-open Martin St. Louis, who buried the puck high-glove past Tokarski to send the series back to Montreal with a chance to close the series out on Tuesday.
A three-to-one hole is not insurmountable, a comeback is definitely possible, just ask the Los Angeles Kings. But Tokarski will have to take his coming-out party to a whole other level if he even thinks about outdueling The King, Henrik Lundqvist.
Despite the outcome of this series, the future of goaltending in la belle province looks bright and if it's any sign of what's to come, this tandem of Price and Tokarksi could be a two-headed monster looking to bring about a reckoning of the Eastern Conference. Before Habs fans can start thinking about that sequel, this script isn't over just yet.

Autonomous Farming
Conceptual illustration of the "farm of the future" that could be enabled by the geodetic infrastructure. The global geodetic infrastructure would provide precise positional capability anywhere in the world at all times for precise agriculture applications, including automated farm machinery and precision seed placement. Soil moisture would be monitored by remote sensing and ground-based GNSS/GPS integrated into GIS, providing accurate management of irrigation. Local GNSS/GPS networks would improve local weather forecasts. Accurate terrain, elevation, and land cover information, integrated with GIS, would enable complex crop management. Farm produce would be transported away in autonomously navigated vehicles.
of InSAR data for the specific regions being monitored. In addition to accurate measurements of surface height, InSAR over wetlands can detect patterns in the water flow. This application will extend significantly the concept of "geodetic imaging" (see section "Future Scientific and Technological Breakthroughs") for better monitoring of coastal wetlands.
The global geodetic infrastructure, even at its current level, has enabled a wealth of applications that have commercial, scientific, economic, national security, and agricultural benefits. To a great extent, this infrastructure has been developed for science or military applications, but the accuracy and robustness of the infrastructure enables society at large to benefit. One of the catalysts for broadening the accessibility of the infrastructure has been the adoption of standards for data acquisition, data formats, data analysis, and data products. These standards have been developed in large part by the international scientific community and have proven so successful that they have been adopted

having a tyre like that repaired, my tyre guy who fits mine said that one of the reasons they wont repair 'performance; tyres is that if you subsequently have an accident,, wether its the tyre at fault or not, the insurer may invalidate your insurance.... and we all know how much they love gettin out of paying!!!

Warsaw, Ind. An undercover operation by Warsaw Police has landed three drug users behind bars.
Monday night, a narcotics officer made a heroin buy at a home in the 500 Block of East Market Street. Police received tips of illegal drug activity inside the home, following an overdose at the address.
Officers arrested 34-year-old Shaun Hinson of Akron, 27-year-old Nicholas Richcreek of Syracuse and 36-year-old Debbie Watson of Warsaw on a variety of felony drug related charges.
They face additional felony charges since the home was across the street from a Warsaw city park that hosts youth football and cheerleading leagues.

As co-founder of The Taylor Family Foundation and Camp Arroyo in Livermore, Barry Taylor spent more than 20 years helping seriously ill and at-risk children be themselves.
On Monday, friends and family remembered Taylor — who died Saturday from a heart attack at the age of 74 — as a compassionate and generous man who never forgot his humble beginnings.
"Every time he saw a kid in need he would find a way to help," said his wife Elaine Taylor. "He always thought of something bigger than himself."
A successful businessman, Taylor started his own office equipment company in the Bay Area, building it into an industry leader with 2,500 employees. He later served on the board of the March of Dimes Foundation, and he and his wife hosted fundraisers in their backyard for children with HIV/AIDS. Together, they started The Taylor Family Foundation in 1990 to fund programs, field trips and other activities for youth living with the disease.
In 2000, the foundation and the East Bay Regional Park District partnered to open the 138-acre Camp Arroyo in Livermore to provide a respite for children with a variety of chronic illnesses, developmental disabilities and emotional challenges in a traditional summer camp setting.
"No longer are they singled out for having an illness," Elaine Taylor said. "They don't have to explain who they are, they just get to be kids."
Located on 138 acres, Camp Arroyo has welcomed 3,000 campers each year from throughout Northern California to swim, play sports and socialize, all free of charge. Since its inception, the foundation has helped more than 40,000 children and 75,000 families. The YMCA of the East Bay helps operate the camp, which also hosts special events and field trips throughout the school year.
The Taylor Family Foundation's signature fund raising event is the annual Day in the Park at Camp Arroyo, The one-day summer event features food and drink from local restaurants, wineries and breweries and silent and live auctions. The August 2011 fundraiser brought in $1.3 million.
Taylor Family Foundation executive director Angie Carmignani, who Taylor referred to as his "fourth daughter," remembered Taylor as an "amazing businessman" with a personal touch.
"He had a way of helping you get out of your box," Carmignani said. "He was an amazing mentor. I could call him at anytime and he would drop just about anything to take the call … It was just part of who he was."
Carmignani added that Taylor's compassion and ideas were the driving forces for building the camp's "community of equality."
"He had a way, and it came from such a genuine place," she said. "My heart is truly broken."
Former East Bay Regional Park District general manager Pat O'Brien, who worked out the purchase of the camp property, called Taylor the "silent strength" behind the endeavor.
"He was a fantastic man," O'Brien said. "He had a gentle way about him, but a strong business sense … It was a privilege to know him."
Prior to his death, Taylor was semi-retired, but still spent a significant amount of time on the nonprofit on fundraising and marketing.
"He was the best visionary I ever met," said his wife. "The Foundation will probably live on forever. He definitely left his footprint on this planet."
The Taylors have made so many dreams come true for my kids and hundreds of others. These lovely people have made such a...

Neil Sogge's translation of Ole Juul's book captures the romanticism that shone like the last lights of civilization in the Dark Age of Hitler's regime that reigned in a pall over Europe. The story is based on Danish freedom fighter prisoner, Michael Lans, who has memories of his love interest, Ruth, his sabotage operation, his wounding, and his capture. Befriended by a guard named Steinz, Michael still faces torture from a bellicose Nazi interrogator, though he remains recalcitrant to the end. The Red Meadows shows how Europe, through the metaphor of the story's character, deserved life and liberty in the end. After the war, this unconquerable spirit was the only thing left that was strong enough to serve Europe on its hard road to recovery. Neil Sogge was born and raised in western South Dakota. He graduated from South Dakota State University in 1985, and on graduate school level received a Masters of Library Science in 1990 from University of California, Los Angeles and an English Masters at Western Washington University in 1995. Later he enrolled in Long Ridge Writer's Group on a correspondence basis and completed the coursework in 2008. Scandinavian languages and their translation is a passion. He lives in Bellingham.

Eliza's Journal is a beautifully illustrated young adult novel that tells the story of one teenage girl's summer of mystery and self-discovery on Orcas Island. Eliza Wolcott has been sent by her parents to live with her aunt and uncle for the summer on the small community of Orcas Island. What she imagines to be a fun-in-the-sun vacation quickly turns into a season of assuming responsibility as she is forced by her uncle to get a summer job. Eliza uses her talent as an artist and applies to be a "natural history illustrator" for the local eccentric Orville Tanner. She documents her time on the island by writing and drawing in her journal, which is the format of the novel itself. Pen and ink illustrations add to the mystery and beauty of this debut book by author Caelyn AB Williams. Debut writer Caelyn AB Williams was born in Oregon and currently lives near Olympia, Washington. She's had a lifelong interest in paleontology, zoology, and particularly Orcas Island in the Puget Sound. She enjoys drawing in her spare time.

Suicide Bomber Kills Five at Israeli Mall
Palestinia bomber exploded himself outside entrance of Israeli town's shopping mall
A Palestinian suicide bomber blew himself up Monday among shoppers waiting to enter a shopping mall in the central Israeli town of Netanya, killing at least five bystanders and wounding more than 30.
The bombing escalated already heightened tensions between Israel and the Palestinians, marked by recent airstrikes and rocket attacks. Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon scheduled an emergency meeting of his Security Cabinet later Monday to discuss a response to the bombing.
Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas quickly condemned the bombing.
Islamic Jihad, a militant group that has carried out several suicide bombings in recent months, claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was retaliation for Israeli targeted killings of the group's leaders.
Police said the bomber blew himself up as he was about to undergo a random security check at the mall's entrance. Avi Sasson, deputy police commander in the northern region, said a guard spotted the bomber.
"Just as police were going to check him, he put his hand in a bag and blew up," he told Israel Radio.
The blast shattered windows and pocked the outside of the brown, multistory building. Pieces of concrete were ripped off the facade, blood stained the base of the building and debris was scattered on the sidewalk.
"I heard a huge bomb. It felt like my head was exploding. I turned around and I saw a red ball of fire, and then I ran," said Masouda Israel, a 67-year-old woman who was in Netanya for a doctor's appointment. "You see these things on TV, but when you're there, it's totally different."
Bodies lay under blankets while emergency workers hurriedly pushed wounded on wheeled stretchers toward ambulances. Ultra-Orthodox rescue crews sifted through debris and police shut down the city, snarling traffic.
Israeli malls have been fortified in the wake of past attacks. Shoppers must go through several security checks, including opening the trunks of their cars and passing through metal detectors, before entering.
Sharon repeatedly has said that long deadlocked peace negotiations cannot resume until militant violence stops, and Monday's attack was likely to set back renewed efforts to return to the internationally sponsored "road map" peace talks.
"The grave attack in Netanya is more proof of the ineffectiveness of the Palestinian Authority under the leadership of Abu Mazen," said Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom, referring to Abbas by his nickname. "Israel will act against the terror organizations with all its might and all the means at its disposal. Israel's response will be hard and painful."
In Ramallah, Abbas promised an especially harsh response by his security forces.
"This operation ... against civilians causes the most serious harm to our commitment to the peace process, and the Palestinian Authority will not go easy on whoever is proved to be responsible for this operation," said a statement issued by Abbas' office.
With Israeli elections planned for March 28, pressure could mount on Sharon for an even tougher response. Sharon left his hard-line Likud to form a new centrist party two weeks ago, saying it would give him more freedom to seek a peace deal with the Palestinians.
Israeli columnist Gershom Gorenberg said Monday's blast was likely to cause Sharon to "emphasize the hardline or the more military side of his personality" ahead of the vote. "In many ways the Palestinians have the fate of the (Israeli) political process in their hands right now," he added.
The Palestinians also have parliamentary elections Jan. 25, and any violence could weaken Abbas' Fatah party, laying bare its ineffectiveness in its race against the Islamic Hamas group.
In a phone call to The Associated Press, Islamic Jihad identified the attacker as Lotfi Abu Saada, from the village of Illar, north of the West Bank town of Tulkaram. A video released by the group showed the bomber posing with a grenade launcher and an assault rifle.

JCWI issues a number of publications. Our main one being the Immigration, Nationality and Refugee Law Handbook. In 2011 we published The JCWI Guide to the Points Based System to supplement the handbook.
Work is in progress for a new, updated version of the Handbook, which unfortunately has been delayed due to the new Immigration Bill currently going through its passage in parliament. Accordingly we aim to publish the new handbook by the end of 2014 or beginning of next year, so that it contains the most recent law.
Please frequent our website where the new publication date will also be publicised when launched.
We also issue smaller pamphlets relating to the policy/campaign work that we conduct. The latest of which is our pamphlet United by Love / Divided by Law written in response to the Home Secretary's changes to family immigration Rules in July 2012. This pamphlet is available for free download below.
We publish a blog on this website which has policy based articles, case notes, campaigning texts and case studies. It is readable and relevant to everyone with an interest in immigration policy and practice, but has a tendency towards catering for legal practitioners at times.
