Skip to comments.Today I Learned That Unions Are Like the Mafia
Posted on 03/26/2011 1:28:59 PM PDT by MikeMerritt
Let me first put it out there that, unlike some of my fellow conservatives/libertarians, I dont believe unions are inherently bad, or at least the larger labor movement isnt. In the past, it was a force for good, producing some much needed reforms at a time when some companies were beyond corrupt.
However, I also believe that absolute power corrupts absolutely, and many, if not most, unions have gained absolute power wherever they set up shop.
Take Philadelphia, for example, where the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America is trying to give a business a bad name. Not because they make their employees work backbreaking long hours. Not even because they wont negotiate better wages or benefits. No, its because their landlord wont hire from within their union to do construction work on the building.
Apparently, you hire only union workers in Philly or face the consequences.

He must be a slow learner.
Yes, they are.
Maybe tomorrow you'll learned that unions ARE the Mafia
So you were just born today? Welcome to the world. BTW the unions are like the Mafia because for decades the Mafia literally ran the unions. Jimmy Hoffa and the Teamsters ring a bell?
It's not most union members but the leadership and the thugs that follow them. Unions are communists organizations that will bring America further down than it is now.
>>Let me first put it out there that, unlike some of my fellow conservatives/libertarians, I dont believe unions are inherently bad, or at least the larger labor movement isnt.<<
When your premise is wrong your argument must fall.
There are more than a few that ARE the mafia
And union members fund these communist organizations.
What if, in order to work in a certain place in a certain career, you were told you had to fund Al Qaeda or Hamas? What would you do?
They started out fighting the capitalists and will end up in pure capitalism....communism.
Today I Learned That Unions Are Like the Mafia.
What foul slander of the mafia.
Why? You don't need to excerpt your own work unless you are trying to get hits for your site.
Communism is the purest form of Capitalism. Complete monopoly by the elite party members.
Not exactly. Someone on FR (I don't know who, or I'd give credit) put it this way: Under capitalism, the rich become powerful; under communism, the powerful become rich.
Another way to say it is that Communism is free enterprise for the apparatchiks.
Total control no competition. Pure capitalism.
"Nice place youze got here. Nice family. Be a shame if something should happen t' them. Youze should have protection. Let me have Bruno here tell youze how much youze gotta pay."
Mike, you might want to try reading and posting on a few threads you didn't start once in a while, too. Otherwise we might get the impression you are just on FR for the site traffic.
That pure, unbridled capitalism is actually what we call 'communism' today.
LOL What a title. They are mob.
Right. The few at the top run the show and dole out the pittance to the masses. The funny is the morons railing against capitalism while not knowing it is what they are promoting.
That implies that monopoly is the ultimate ideal of capitalism. Maybe that's true for many of the individual actors, but it is not the global goal. Capitalism includes the idea of competition and price discovery; the singular condition of monopoly does not.
You are thinking free market capitalism.
Most of those who live in the Philly area know this -- which why sane business will avoid the Pennsylvania Convention Center like the plague.
Great blog, btw.
Its very simple, Unions want the automatic pay deduction that comes out of each pay check!
The Democrats want the support and money from the Unions!
Well, self-aggrandizing idiots come out of the closet all the time. No need for a headline. I'd hide my stupid a$$ back in the closet if I were you.
I had a little chat with a firefighter outside a polling place about 20 years ago. After that conversation I have viewed the firefighter unions as a bunch of flippin Nazi`s. From that day on I have always voted down their pay raises ( when I was able to actually vote for them ) and have also never given a dime to a fundraiser they sponsored. I have a few friends who are firefighters as well, and have told them my story and they have never refuted my opinions on what I was told or felt that day.
And by the way, I was a member (by force) of the Teamsters for 3 years. The Union leadership will sell out members in a heartbeat if the more senior members can line their pockets with more cash and benefits. I experienced that firsthand.
What you will find is consistent terrorist bombings before there were any Muslims anywhere, Marxists, and murder. That's pretty much it.
Oh, no denying this. Most union members are good folk; no doubts about that.
The leadership is something else.
Unions ARE the Mafia. Mine was in the '80's. I belonged to the Laborers. My local, Local 59 of the Mason Tenders District Council of NY was controlled by the Gambino Crime family.
I've found that this is a very real problem when it comes to Islamic charities. It's very hard in that case not to make some connection to a terrorist group (because, how better for them to gain followers than to be charitable?).
Thank you.
LOL. Your tag line is almost poetic irony for this thread. This article is about Philadelphia running aground. Only prudent thing to do is....destroy it.
With tongue firmly, (or not,) in cheek, I tell you that we, in Southwest PA, would hardly miss it and wish it was part of New Jersey.
Better than liberals who never learn.
Check out the Triangle Fire history from 100 years ago exactly yesterday.
OK, there was a need for something to thwart abominable business practices against working people 100 years ago.
But please, the Public school teachers, Policemen, Firefighters, Trash Collectors are oppressed workers?
In 21st century America?
I was not born last night.
I suppose so. How foolishly idealistic of me.
Philly unions were worse than NY City.
Then I must not understand your definition of capitalism. Or, maybe, your definition of communism.
Then I must not understand your definition of capitalism. Or, maybe, your definition of communism.
I usually play it safe by not giving my money to either Islamists or Communists — and I will not, even when they try to extort it from me as they do the union membership. Nobody ever put a gun to a union members head and said "pick this career!", "live in this state!", or "do this job!". Union members FUND THE COMMUNIST MOVEMENT IN AMERICA and have done so since unions began. This is not new. Any union member whose union leadership uses union funds to advance communism (i.e., most unions) contributes to the overthrow of the U.S. government as founded and seeks its replacement with communist totalitarianism either WILLINGLY or through UNFATHOMABLE (willful) IGNORANCE.
Absolutely right! The Communists were involved in the union movement from the very beginning. What do the mafia, the unions and the communists have in common? Despite what they say is their reason d'etre, those they claim to be supporting get little but the ones at the top live like kings.
The same is true of the civil rights movement, the feminists movement and now the push for homosexual rights. The Left is behind it all.
To me Capitalism is the manipulation of money. Simply making money with money. It can be good or bad.
Free enterprise is the free bartering of goods and services. Money is the medium of exchange for those goods and services.
I learned that in 1980, when I had to join a union in order to get a particular job. Actually, I knew it in 1976 when I was working part time in a car wash, paying union dues even though I wasn't represented. Seems the teamsters had some leverage in the industry in those days.
Yes. And only a fool would open a business in the city.
Yeah, back when people were forced to work for companies.
Unions are like being in an abusive relationship.

Apparently Some People Think Hipsters Are Annoying & Ought To Be Taxed
Guys. We don't mean to alarm you, but: Americans don't like hipsters. Of course, Americans aren't really sure what hipsters are or, perhaps, no one likes hipsters (not even hipsters), but it appears that most people don't like hipsters, and republicans really don't like hipsters. According to a recent Public Policy Polling study, 16% of Americans have a favorable opinion of hipsters, while 42% have an unfavorable opinion of hipsters, and 43% aren't sure. (Maybe that last group seems to still be digesting the new Vampire Weekend album. We get it, we are, too.)
Other hard hitting questions the PPP asked pollees (most of which, it should be noted, were white), was whether or not PBR was a good beer — 21% said yes, while almost half of the responders said no. (As an aside: In non-cosmopolitan America, PBR is still quite cheap and still very much along the lines of Schlitz or Bud.)
Perhaps most mind-boggling was the question wondering whether or not hipsters made any sort of cultural contribution, with an answer actually being provided as: "They just soullessly appropriate cultural tropes from the past for their own ironic amusement." Which is, ironically, a kind of hipster suggestion, right? Is the PPP making a meta-point about their own hipsterism? Is asking about hipsters a hipster thing to do? What is more hip, the hipster, or the one who isn't hip on the hipster?
We might not be qualified to answer these hefty questions, but any time someone feels a smug sense of self-satisfaction, Americans tend to chafe — even if that self-satisfaction comes from some sort of gesture at sustainability or a decision to shop locally and sport mustaches. Fortunately, even though Americans aren't fans of cheap beer and irony, they don't think hipsters should pay for being obnoxious — only 27% think they should be taxed for being "annoying."

I currently have a silverlight app designed mainly in expression blend, using a border with a drop shadow effect encircling a rounded rectangle control. When I embed this application into a page, there is a white background around the object. I want to make this background either transparent so the page background color (defined in css) shows through, or somehow change the silverlight app to have the blue background instead of the white.

What is leadership, anyways? Would you recognize it if you saw it? Leadership isn't a title or a position. It's about stepping over a threshold. It's about making a difference in your own life, the lives of others, in your community or organization, or in the world at large. It's about living and acting by example and in turn, affecting others.
Bottom line, a leader is "in relationship" 24/7, and it's not just with humans, anymore.
There's another alternative to traditional mentoring. The design is so simple that we've failed to see it because it's all around us. It's nature. We've turned traditional mentoring on its head by using four of the nine laws of nature. Find out what the results is…
Many of the changes happening today have big stakes associated with them—both for the future health of our communities and organizations, and for the way we approach some of the most important social and public issues of our time. The outcomes matter a great deal, but the way we get there matters too. How are you energizing change?
You've probably been asked on more than one occasion to describe your strengths. Often our answer is a well rehearsed recitation, that serves the listener not us. But by opening yourself up to a fresh inquiry of what is most alive for you now, you can use this question to your benefit. Are you use using your strengths to tackle problems that matter to you? Find out!
It's clear, now more than ever, that the world needs our best dreaming, our best thinking and our best actions. Now is the time to connect, with nature, our inner knowing, and with a community of like-minded and supportive friends and colleagues.

Critic Reviews for Zarafa
All Critics (17) | Top Critics (5) | Fresh (13) | Rotten (4)
In trying to tell an epic tale over just 78 minutes, the filmmakers sacrifice anything that might have made their film memorable.
This hand-drawn French adventure is a children's story in the routine template of many friends-and-villains quests, but with a fresh historical setting and a serenely subdued look.
Since there are giraffes in Parisian zoos, there necessarily had to be a first one, and Rémi Bezançon and Jean-Christophe Lie's Zarafa is a beautifully animated and often moving telling of how it arrived there in the early 1800s.
While the gorgeous widescreen landscapes have a pencil-and-aquarelle quality, the characters themselves are literally rougher-edged, a clever reminder of the hand-drawn, sketchlike quality of traditional animation.
A colorfully compelling kids flick with darker historical undertones, Zarafa reps a smart and successful freshman animation effort from writer-director Remi Bezancon.
Gently told, but with wild flights of imagination involving hot-air balloons, nomads and spectacular scenery, it's a charming adventure, undercut with wise observations about big themes ...
Audience Reviews for Zarafa
This started off so well and the animation is beautiful. But the film loses steam halfway through as you start to realize there is no real point to this story. Beautiful art, bad story choice.

Uncommon Sense: "Tell My Friend about Her Bridesmaid's Bad Behavior?"
Give your best advice! Write your best answer to this problem in the comments below, and we might use your suggestion in a future issue.
I was the maid of honor in my best friend's wedding, and there was one bridesmaid—a cousin of the bride—who was causing drama constantly. The bride was none the wiser to her behavior, but I'm still reeling. Do I tell the bride how awful her cousin was or keep my mouth shut? —Miffed Maid

39 thoughts on "Uncommon Sense: "Tell My Friend about Her Bridesmaid's Bad Behavior?""
Look back from past and you will see how you enjoyed your friend's wedding and made it spl. for her OR you can see how everyone else was enjoying n you wer caught up in mentoring a bridesmaid!
PS: whats weddings without some family drama!
It was one event; a few hours out of a day. What purpose does it do by informing the bride?
Keep it to yourself and be glad she isn't YOUR cousin.
Wedding's over – let it go. You'll probably never have to spend time with the cousin again. If you do, you can politely decline, and tell your friend that you and her cousin didn't hit it off, and leave it at that.
to Miffed Maid: Your best friend's wedding day wasn't about you. If she was none the wiser concerning her cousin's behavior, keep it that way. Perhaps YOU are the only one reeling.
Comlaining to your fruend is not a good idea at all… Talk to her directly instead.
The key word is "was"; why would you want to initiate negativity into your best friend's memory of her most special day to date, by bringing up something that is over and she was "none the wiser" to? Ignorance is bliss, so if you're a true "best friend", allow her to be blissful. Alison Bennish
Keep quiet! – Do not live in the past – what is done is done and if you want to remain friends with the bride(newly-wed) then remain quiet. Otherwise you will stir up trouble with an "I said, she said" and YOU WILL LOSE a friend or maybe more than one!
Seriously? When you graduate from grammar school and move on in life, you'll be able to discern what is important and what isn't. This isn't. Move on.
The wedding is over. Allow yourself one eye-roll and head shake. Then forget it and move on. Ruminating about it is just hurting you.
Some things are better left unsaid. If her cousin is not included in your close knit circle of friends, why sweat it the small stuff. You may never see this drama queen again. Look at the big picture,it's all small stuff. Continue being a friend to your friend, while her cousin grows up. Life is so short. Let your friend have memorable moments of her wedding. Don't you bring the drama to her. Always remember what I have told my own children, :don't start no stuff, won't be no stuff.
The past is just that – PAST. Your best friend has fond memories of her wedding, and is proceeding with her married life. It is in the best interest of all involved if you take some deep breaths, release your concerns about the bridesmaid's behavior, and live in the present moment. You will enjoy life more, and so will your friend.
If the wedding is over, what good will it do? It's not like you and her cousin are going to be spending any time together anymore. There's no reason to say anything, most likely that will cause more issues than she apparently does.
You being angry today cannot change ANYTHING that happened before, in the past. I wouldn't bother saying a word, for 2 reasons; 1) it's a family member of your best friend that upset you, and no matter what, blood is thicker than water, and 2) it won't change anything. So, I'd swallow this one, even though it still makes you mad.
Who's causing drama now? It's over, let it go!
I'd keep my mouth shut unless she requests you deal w/ cousin for another huge social occasion, like hosting a baby shower or milestone birthday party/ anniversary. She'd just get defensive & hurt & can't do anything about it now. If it still keeps bugging you, why not journal your feelings or talk to a trusted counselor or clergy member bound by confidentiality about it? You may also want to consider whether her cousin is really what's troubling you or if real issue is jealousy or fear of growing apart from BFF now that her life has changed, esp. if you're still single & wish you weren't.
Before you say a word, ask yourself, will it matter five years from now?
Please keep quiet on the issue. You are the one who is overreacting. Since they're related, I'm sure the bride already knows about the issue. Even so, why would you want to ruin your friend's happy day? Get used to the fact that there will always be a drama queen somewhere. So please, keep your friend's best interests in mind and move on like nothing ever happened.
Do NOT tell your friend about her annoying cousin. The wedding is over and you can't change history!
Just to make sure I understand – the bride was none the wiser, her day went off without a hitch and she had a great wedding – and NOW you want to tell her about her drama-causing cousin? Girl, why are you trying to start drama?
To Miffed Maid. The wedding is all about the bride and groom. If the Bride was none the wiser, to her cousins behavior, she should remain that way. She obviously has a close relationship with this cousin and there would be no good reason to say something that could harm that relationship or cloud the brides memory of her most lovely day, her wedding. Be thankful that you were a friend who was important enough to the bride to be included in her wedding and remember the good time that you had and let go of the things that were out of your control. It is in the past so it cannot be changed. If that is the worst thing that ever happens to you, you still have it made!
Although it's tempting to tell, its probably not worth it. Better to let the drama-causer dig her own hole rather than have your friend be disappointed in you for "tattling".
As her maid of honor, you are there to keep her wedding day as stress free as possible. And surround her with all the good memories of the day. She knows her cousin and may have been "forced" by family to include this cousin. Let it be. Stay her maid of honor so on their 50th anniversary, you will be there to celebrate and remember the great wedding with them
Dear Miffed Maid:
Who made you the Wedding Police? The bride was appropriately involved with her new husband and enjoying her wedding and her guests. That she was unaware of any supposed drama is exactly as it should have been. You need to keep your silence: you would be no friend to the bride by pointing out any problems YOU thought had occurred at the wedding.
First of all, kudos for being a great Maid Of Honor and not bringing this up before or during the wedding. But why stop there? Ask yourself if anything good or productive, for you or your best friend, could possibly happen as a result of bringing this up now. You would be doing both of you a favor to just let it go.
Let the bride stay "none the wiser" and be glad her cousin isn't yours.
Just because the bride appeared to be "none the wiser", doesn't mean she didn't notice. However, it was her day and whether she noticed it or not, she didn't let it ruin her day. Why are you letting it ruin your memories of your best friends happy occasion? Either way, there is no point in saying anything when the deed is done. Telling your best friend that her cousin was a drama queen on her big day could very well upset her. That day is over, the bride was happy, why bring it up now? Think how you would feel if the tables were turned. I don't understand why it bothers you so much, it wasn't your cousin, and the bride was happy. Let it go. Move on.
Dear Miffed Maid, A wedding day belongs to the bride and if the bride herself was not aware of her cousin acting like a drama queen then it is best to keep your mouth shut and let her remember her wedding day with just happy thoughts. No good can come out of you telling her after the fact except you hoping that it might make YOU feel better. Keep in mind "blood is thicker than water" and if the bride was none the wiser to her cousin's behavior then I suggest trying to get past this reeling feeling you are still having. Spilling the beans may jeopardize your friendship so you have to think about whether her cousin is worth that.
Absolutely not. Just suck it up. Like parents who doesn't want to hear from the babysitter all the irrelevant things their kids did while they had a date, the bride does not need her special day spoiled by something that's over and done.
Why would you rehash something that's over? The weddings done, and most likely you wont have to deal with this person again. It should be out of site out of mind. By you addressing it, most likely you would stir up drama. It could also put a damper between you and your friend, because no matter how close you are, family always comes first. If you ever come in come in contact with this cousin, and she starts causing drama again, than I would address it. Most likely if she did it once, she will do it again.
There isn't any reason to tell your friend anything negative about the wedding. As you say, (Keep your mouth shut).
Who got married here? you or your so called friend? Exactly!! You answered your own question twice. 1st- the bride was unaware of this behavior. 2nd- your last four words were right on the money. Why would a "Friend" wish to shine a bad light on a beautiful day? Self gratification maybe? Shame on you!
Dear Miffed,
Your concern for the bride is admirable. Do you say something or do you keep silent? If the bride was none the wiser, you might question why you are so upset? Did the bridesmaid push some of your buttons by just being herself? Was she intentionally causing drama? If you watched the movie, Greek Wedding, it goes without saying, it is not uncommon to have drama at a wedding. My advice- take a little time to determine why it bothered YOU so much and let the bride enjoy the memories of a happy wedding.
The event(wedding)is over. Now you need to get over the issue,also. If you have a problem with someone you need to address the individual. I would ask myself, what is your motive for telling the bride now. Move on and keep the happier memories of wedding in mind. You will be the bigger person.
Thank goodness the bride was "none the wiser." It was the bride's day after all, not yours. Nothing was to be gained by pointing it out then and ruining the day for the bride, and nothing will be gained by pointing it out now. Repeat after me: Let it go…
If it didn't bother the bride, then it is water under the bridge. She probably already knows what her cousin is like, and chooses not to acknowledge bad behavior.
Part of the duty of a bridesmaid is to facilitate the momentous occasion for the bride. In your efforts to shield the bride from the dramatic behavior of her cousin, you fulfilled that duty splendidly. Now that the event is over, there is no reason to dwell on one person's bad behavior unless your goal is to taint the opinion of one cousin to another thereby creating a new drama for all involved.
Ask yourself: Would sharing this help your relationship with the bride? Would it hurt it? No matter how close you are to the bride, family is family and bringing this up to the bride (who most likely knows her cousin's drama-queen tendencies) will not help your relationship. In fact, it may cause a divide between the two of you. Time to turn around and put the past behind you.
Why would you even want to tell her and stain your best friends special day? It sounds like YOU are the one causing drama!

The two possess such a strong platonic love for each other that they are incapable of loving anyone else. When Margaret travels to London to live with France, he picks out beautiful Swedish student Fred (Sven-Bertil Taube) to be Margaret's lover. For himself, he selects American girl Manny (Leigh Taylor-Young). As they spend their holidays traveling in Spain, the countryside of England, and Sweden, the foursome communicate with each other and try to discover the meaning of love. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

George Jones, Kenny Rogers and Joe Nichols are just a few of the artists who have recorded tunesmith Mike Dekle's songs over the past three decades or so, but his own output as a singer is pretty slim—and as Tributes demonstrates, that's a shame. The loose concept of the album is simple and unpretentious: Each song is a salute to someone or something that Mike likes. That includes everything from Bob Dylan ("Ode to Bob Dylan") to metrosexual rednecks ("Rub-a-Bubba") and, naturally, songwriting itself ("Lost Without Music"). Fresh and optimistic, Tributes demonstrates the virtues of looking on the bright side of life.

A Bob vs. Bob Horse Race — Alton's After-Showby Maria Russo in Shows, July 19th, 2015
It's true what they say: Bobs have more fun. On tonight's brand-new installment of Alton's After-Show, two of the Cutthroat Kitchen Bobs — the guys in charge of demoing and deconstructing host Alton Brown's seemingly never-ending loot of sabotages — faced off in a diabolical yet hilarious horse race, all in the name of explaining to judge Jet Tila just what three chefs endured in Round 1's biscuit breakfast battle.
Propped up on inflatable horses, the Bobs took their marks at the front of the arena and bounced around the kitchen for a full lap, much to the delight of Alton and Jet, who watched the mayhem unfold. "Coming around the gate it's the kind-of-sort-of-bald-headed-skinny Bob taking the lead over the bespectacled Bob, who better catch up," Alton said, narrating the race in his best announcer voice. In the end, Alton declared the match a draw, though "the bespectacled Bob" lost his balance at the very end, toppling to the ground on his side so the bouncy horse was belly up for a moment. "Great sabotage," Jet said after realizing what challenges these horses held for the three sabotaged chefs.

corridor through 14z before lifting to VFR for the rest of today.
Considering these broken MVFR ceilings should be intermittent,
have chosen to handle them with a tempo group while prevailing
scattered cloud decks for the I-35 taf sites. Southerly winds will
become more southeasterly this afternoon sustained to 10 knots
with gusts up to 20 knots. Isolated showers and thunderstorms will
remain well east of I-35, but an upper level disturbance from the
east will increase rain chances for the I-35 taf sites just beyond
the end of the period tomorrow afternoon.
Previous discussion... /issued 358 am CDT sun Jul 24 2016/
Short term (today through monday)...
an earlier and more widespread return of stratus early this
morning indicates slowly increasing moisture across south central
Texas. With the subtropical ridge nearby, similar high
temperatures as Saturday are expected. Dewpoints will not mix out
as efficiently making heat indices a degree or so higher. Values
of 105 to 108 are expected along and east of I-35, as well as in
few spots along the Rio Grande. A few spots near the coastal
plains will flirt with heat advisory criteria with values of 108
to 110 for an hour or two. Will issue a Special Weather Statement
to cover this. Due to the increasing moisture, the seabreeze will
become more active with isolated showers and thunderstorms late
this afternoon into early evening near the coastal plains.
A significant change in the pattern develops on Monday as the
subtropical ridge erodes to the west allowing a weak upper level
trough currently over the lower Mississippi Valley to drift to the
southwest across eastern Texas. An outflow boundary generated by
early in the day showers and thunderstorms will push into south
central Texas during the afternoon. This boundary and solar
heating will interact with an increasingly moist airmass with precipitable waters
approaching 2 inches to generate isolated to scattered showers and
thunderstorms across The Hill Country to along and east of US
Highway 281 as the afternoon progresses. The rains and increased
clouds will "cool" high temperatures slightly, except across the
Rio Grande plains. Some heat indices in the 105 to 107 range are
still expected east of I-35 and across the Rio grange plains.
Long term (monday night through saturday)...
the former Mississippi Valley trough and the surface boundary
will drift across central Texas into Mexico Monday night into
Tuesday while an upper level trough currently over Florida moves
across the Gulf of Mexico and across Texas Tuesday night into
Wednesday. Moisture levels increase further with precipitable waters in the 2 to
2.3 inch range. Expect most showers and thunderstorms to be driven
by additional surface boundaries, an enhanced seabreeze, and solar
heating with greatest areal coverage during the daytime hours of
Tuesday and Wednesday. Due to the higher pws, some locally heavy
rains are expected with isolated rainfall amounts of 2 to 3 inches
possible. Weak shear and minor cape could allow for gusty winds
with the strongest storms. The showers and thunderstorms should
wane with loss of solar heating allowing coverage to become more
isolated at night. However, the European model (ecmwf) maintains upward forcing at
night as a weak upper level jet passes over our area and the low
level jet strengthens. For now, will side with the model consensus
and only go with slight chances, although the European model (ecmwf) would result
in higher chances at night. The former Florida trough moves off to
the west by Thursday with an upper level shear axis lingering over
central Texas late this week into next weekend. Will introduce
slight chance probability of precipitation for Thursday and these may have to extended
into Friday and Saturday as the ecwmf keeps the trough in the
vicinity of The Big Bend while maintaining deeper moisture than
the model consensus. Daytime temperatures will actually be below
normal for most areas Tuesday and Wednesday due to clouds and
rain. The last time they were below normal was in early June.

The Stepford Wives
- Studio: Paramount Pictures
- Release Date: Jun 11, 2004
Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
A Frankenstein's monster of a movie: clumsy, patched together from parts that don't align properly, desperate to be loved, destined to be chased by mobs with pitchforks - those will be the critics - until it stumbles into its grave.
If the film is to work on any level, even a comedic one, it's necessary for the viewers to sympathize with Joanna and Walter. However, the script and scattershot performances keep them at arm's length. Nicole Kidman is in full scenery-chewing mode, and Matthew Broderick hasn't been this invisible since Ferris Bueller had to go back to school.
Close is the best and worst thing about the film, delivering a performance that upstages even Christopher Walken (!), taking her over-the-top Cruella de Vil turn to its saccharine-sweet opposite.
The movie takes a desperately wrong turn about 45 minutes in, and you can almost hear the great sucking sound as the whole thing churns down the drain in a swirl of narrative contradictions.
None of it appears to be well thought out, or thought through, and it's consequently never remotely believable.
The story and themes behind The Stepford Wives are way past their time. Theyre products of the 1960s.
Rudnick is a wit, and his script allows everyone a decent one-liner or two. But the problem with one-liners is that they only last one line, leaving a whole movie around them that needs filling in.
Lured to the project with John Cusack as her original co-star (cruelly replaced by Matthew Broderick), Nicole Kidman phones it in.
The film contains so many endings that it's hard to tell what impressions the filmmakers want us to leave the theater with. Buy a copy of the book instead. It remains an excellent read.
So god-awful it falls into the category of needing to be seen to be believed. A purported satire of the 1975 camp horror classic, it succeeds in failing on almost every level, including knowing what it's actually satirizing.
There is no tonal consistency from scene to scene, swinging from domestic drama to farce. Most of the actors -- especially Matthew Broderick -- look lost.
Misbegotten is the only way to describe this remake of the 1975 film based on Ira Levin's cultural-zeitgeist novel.
A pitiful shambles of a remake, The Stepford Wives might have qualified as a rethinking of the 1975 original if there were any trace of coherent thought in the finished product.

The cast is actually quite impressive, but they do not do much with their shallow characters - and how could they?? Horrible screenplay, and just a bad film overall... Nicole Kidman is decent in the film, and the overall cast is good. Bette Midler is pretty good and pretty much the most entertaining character in this "comedy." As Kidman said at a press statement once "It's a comedy. We hope." Unfortunately, that hope did not materialise into reality, since there is almost nothing funny about The Stepford Wives. It is not even bad enough to be funny - that's how bad it is! The 2 is truly only out of my respect for the misguided actors and for rather good production design - the costumes and art direction were both very well done. Overall, though, a film that had a lot of potential has been sucked dry of all its originality, charm and, most importantly, its humour. 2/10… Full Review »

THE MARKETS: STOCKS & BONDS; A Call for Sharing of Research Causes Gene Stocks to Plunge
By ALEX BERENSON and NICHOLAS WADE
Published: March 15, 2000
President Clinton and Prime Minister Tony Blair of Britain said yesterday that the sequence of the human genome should be made freely available to all researchers. The statement led to a sharp sell-off in the stocks of biotechnology companies, which hope to profit by creating drugs based on genetic data.
The White House quickly said it did not intend to hurt the fledgling biotechnology industry, but investors who have made biotechnology stocks the darlings of the market were unconvinced. In frantic selling, they wiped away tens of billions of dollars in market value from the industry. Genomics companies, which are racing to produce a database of human DNA, were hit hardest, with some off more than 20 percent.
The drop was not confined to the biotechnology sector. After briefly passing 5,000 in morning trading, the Nasdaq composite index, which is heavily weighted in technology stocks, fell steadily. The index closed at 4,706.63, down 200.61 points, its second-largest point loss ever.
For investors, the drop is noteworthy, because biotechnology and Internet companies have led the stock market so far this year, while most other stocks have languished. Despite falling almost 13 percent yesterday, the Nasdaq biotech index remains up almost 30 percent this year, thanks to investors' belief that a new wave of drug discovery and gene therapy is imminent.
Because of the rapid run-up, the stocks are expensive by all traditional valuations. The joint statement from Mr. Clinton and Mr. Blair, which said the genome data ''should be made freely available to scientists everywhere,'' served as a spark for excitable investors.
Dr. Roy Whitfield, chief executive of Incyte Pharmaceuticals, which shed 28 percent of its market value during the day, said investors failed to distinguish between genome sequences and gene sequences. The genome, referring to the total human DNA, has no commercial value and cannot be patented. The genes, which occupy only 3 percent of the genome, can be. Researchers can work on the sequences of patented genes in academic work and have to pay license fees only if they wish to sell an invention based on the sequence.
The two leaders' statement, which was eight months in the making, is an outgrowth of the longstanding rivalry between a public consortium of American and British academic centers and the Celera Corporation of Rockville, Md., to complete the sequence of the human genome.
The consortium, largely financed by the National Institutes of Health and the Wellcome Trust of London, is posting its findings daily on a Web site open to all. Celera, a unit of the PE Corporation, promises to make its version of the human genome freely available when it is finished, probably this summer. Celera plans to patent some genes, but its principal business plan is to operate a database of the human and other genomes, charging fees for use of the programs that search and analyze the genetic data.
The statement was intended to codify the government position in the rivalry, that the human genome sequence should be made publicly available to all researchers, but it appears to have been interpreted as a challenge both to Celera's intellectual property rights and to those of other genome and biotech companies. A White House official said neither challenge was intended, noting the statement explicitly endorsed intellectual property protection for patents based on genes.
The statement cuts across a complicated two-way rivalry between the public consortium and Celera, and between Celera and its two chief rivals, Incyte Pharmaceuticals and Human Genome Sciences. Both the consortium and Celera aim to sequence the human genome, which means determining the order of the three billion chemical units in the DNA, the genetic information possessed by each human cell.
The strategy of Incyte and Human Genome Sciences is to focus on the genes themselves, patenting as many as possible. The genes, the programming instructions that operate the cell, are hidden in the DNA, with no obvious signposts, and are hard to find even when the genome sequence is known.
Incyte's stock fell $53.50, to $143.50, while Human Genome's stock fell $29.04875, to $123.51625. Meanwhile, Celera fell $39.75, to $149.25.
The government statement adds to the tension between the public consortium and Celera, which last week announced that it had effectively broken off merger negotiations.
Celera and its president, Dr. J. Craig Venter, have long been at odds with the leading scientists of the public consortium, chiefly Dr. John Sulston of the Sanger Center in Britain and Dr. Robert Waterston of Washington University in St. Louis.
Before merger talks broke off, the public consortium proposed that both sides abandon what it called ''the current antagonism and excessive competition.''
The initiative for the statement issued today is believed to have come from the Wellcome Trust, a medical-research charity, in London. Dr. Michael Dexter, Wellcome's director, said the trust's concern was over the general ownership of the genome, which in his view ''is mankind's, and should not be owned by any one company, individual or country.''

July 2016
This is a wonderful tour that includes many interesting places. We loved seeing a working windmill that could be explained to us by the Miller. Next we went to a cheese factory and heard all about making cheese and as a bonus got to taste many different kinds of cheeses. Next was lunch at a local restaurant. They were waiting and ready for us so it was very efficient. Then the boat ride which gave a little time to relax and talk with other visitors to Amsterdam. Last we went to the wooden shoe factory. It was fascinating. Where else could you try on actual wooden shoes. All in all it was a perfect day.
July 2016
Personable guide. Clean, safe bus. Beautiful views and commentary on countryside and reclamation of land from sea. Best part, though: I never expected to see an authentic windmill actually working up close and inside. A must see. Absolutely fascinating. The host miller ground flax seed with massive mills stones driven by the wind. Everything made of wood and absolutely the way they did it in the old days. Many thanks to the folks who have kept this windmill running.
July 2016
Tour was excellent - the service and information from the guide and bus driver was exceptional. A fantastic day!
July 2016
The tour guides were excellent. Bus was good. There was a full bus of tourists but it went well. Long day but worth it. You do not have to do a tour of an area ie the cheese factory but keep an eye on the time so you can meet the group afterwards. Windmill was included in the price so keep with the group or you pay 4 euros for entrance. Defiantly a good day trip to experience some of Holland outside the city center.
June 2016
We had a wonderful time on our tour and were thoroughly impressed with our guides. We rate it a 10.
May 2016
This is a beautiful tour that is a must if you really enjoy quaint villages , beautiful scenery and getting a true taste of the Netherlands you imagined. The tour guides were excellent! Very informative and very enthusiastic personalities. I would take it again whenever I return to Amsterdam. I took several tours through VIATOR and were all great!
May 2016
It was Well spent Few Hours and Money in Amsterdam . The tour guides too care to look after the bus load of people , keep us informed and entertained well . The Places of visit were magnificent !!
October 2015
Beautiful! A great way to see some neat scenery and history outside of Amsterdam.
October 2015
This tour was extremely well done. The tour guide was knowledgeable and you have more than enough time to see everything. I would recommend this tour to anyone who really wants to see Amsterdam.
September 2015
Was a great overview of the countryside with the story and history behind the draining of the poulders, how clogs are made, how windmills work and the important role played in the history of the Netherlands. Bus tour combined with a boat cruise. Efficient use of time - for a half day cruise it was informative and the pacing of activities and knowledge of the tour guides and presenters at each of the locations was fantastic!! The tour group was not huge and the logistics of managing all the stops and keeping to the schedule of returning to the bus or waiting for stragglers was not an issue.

Jesswrote a review of Patagonia Capilene Daily Crew - Long-Sleeve - Infant Girls' on June 28, 2016
Great Shirt for the Little One
Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
Fit: True to size
I got this as a gift for my friends' 1 year old little girl. They're a super active family & take the baby wherever they go. This shirt is super soft - great against her skin - and provides additional protection from the sun for her sensitive skin. It's also very lightweight, helping her to not overheat in the hot sun.
To echo other reviews, this runs true to size.
