So, the holidays are coming up; and holiday parties are always a must. I wanted to give back to everyone who has attended, or helped me host events this year. The best way to do that is to offer a nice place to get a drink, have a bite to eat and have a great night of fun conversation.
Since this is so important to me, I could only trust The Social House with it. A lot of people use them, and there's a good reason for that. They are always so good to Meetup, and go out of their way to make the night special for us. And since the last time I had almost 150 people show up, they've opened up a lot more space to use for this event!!
They've been kind enough to give us BOTH bars to use. So we will be in both the side bar, and the back bar. There should've been enough space for anyone who wanted to come out this night. But we are on a waitlist now. I've opened it up for everyone to be able to bring some guests. For those who don't know, the side bar is to your right after you walk into the restaurant. The back bar is…well…in the back. They are connected by a lounge of couches so wecan move from one to the other. Very nice place.
The night will run from 6pm-10pm. If anyone cares to stay afterwards, they bring out a DJ @ 10:30 PM, clear out the tables and open it up for dancing. There will be a mix of different genres..so there should be something for everyone. No one has to stay, but people are always looking for an after party. Well…no need to leave if you don't want to. They will be open until 2AM.
As always, there are specials….and as always they've extended the Happy Hour for us until 10PM.
So for all you late comers, you will be set. Here's the happy hour specials:
$3.00 wells
1/2 off select appetizers
1/2 off all pizzas
1/2 off specialty cocktails
1/2 off crown and downs
$3 off any entrees
$1 dollar off any draft beer
$2 off any wine by the glass
They have a huge selection of beers on tap, as well as wines and liquors. If it sounds like I like the place…I kinda do. Check out Yelp's reviews if you've never been there.
Finally, I just wanted to thank everyone I've met through this group. This really has been a great place for me when I needed it after a horrible time in my life. I'd personally like to thank another Organizer (Chris Baken-yes I just called you out), who took that guy who was really nervous, and helped him fit in. If I've done any good as an organizer, it's watching other people build friendships through the events I run. The talking, the interaction and the smiles…..that's my reward. And I've met so many great people who I count as friends…But I've decided I'm going to step down as an organizer after this event. There are other things I want to do, and different groups I'd like to work with. This has been coming for awhile, and now seems like a good time to go ahead and bow out on a good note.
I want to thank you all again for your support and attendance at my events. Please come and have a good time, because that's what the holidays are about. If there are any people I've just never had a chance to meet...please come out. It would be awesome to see you!
**Since we're definitely going to go to a waiting list, please just remember people change their status a lot. Especially the day of the event. So don't be surprised if you find a spot open for you to come!!! **
Have a great day and take care!!

I'll be wearing khaki slacks, a blue button down shirt, with green suspenders and a matching bow tie. I'll have my Santa hat on too, so I should not be hard to find at all. Please introduce yourself if we haven't met. And if you're nervous at all just find me or Naveen, and we'll make sure you're comfortable. That's kinda how we roll here. Can't wait to see everyone. If you need anything, just text me at[masked], or Naveen at[masked]-9344.
It will be a really fun night!!

Hey everyone. Wow! Such a good crowd for tomorrow night. Please be considerate of others on the waitlist, if you or your guests can't come. @ Jason, I can't stop anyone on or off a waitlist from coming to a public bar. I know from past experience that people will begin changing their status. Especially on the day of the event. Some people will simply "no show" without doing anything. A lot of people on the waitlist will be able to get in. And I make a judgement call the day of the event to see how many are waiting, and if it's not too big I open it anyway. You want to be comfortable in the space you have, and have enough staff. That's the reason for the limit. Hope that helps!!

In the meantime, file for unemployment. Again every state is different, but must will let you collect even if you were fired. There may just be a penalty period.
Also as suggested before, call your local health department and they can advise you of sliding fee OBs in your area. Maybe Medicaid is an option too?? Not sure what it takes to qualify.
I know in Nevada, they can just fire you for what ever. No reason needed. :( Good luck.

This just does not make sense. You need to contact your HR department. I smell a lawsuit.
Unless you were on a trial period with that company, no company has the right to fire an employee based on the fact that they were sick 3 times. If they fired you for other reasons, then they were supposed to tell you what those reasons were and unless their reason was for something serious, they normally give you a warning before firing you.
As many others have said, it depends on the laws in your state, but because you were a probationary employee, you are likely out of luck. The best thing to do it start looking for another job. Good luck!

text: Francesca's Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. Another earnings short-squeeze prospect is specialty retailer Francesca's ( FRAN), which is set to release numbers on Tuesday after the market close. Wall Street analysts, on average, expect Francesca's to report revenue of $84.92 million on earnings of 30 cents per share. The current short interest as a percentage of the float for Francesca's is extremely high at 45.6%. That means that out of the 34.79 million shares in the tradable float, 15.86 million shares are sold short by the bears. This is a stock with a very high short interest and a relatively low tradable float. Any bullish earnings news could spark a monster short-squeeze for shares of FRAN post-earnings. From a technical perspective, FRAN is currently trending below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bearish. This stock has been trending sideways for the last month and change, with shares moving between $24 on the downside and $28.46 on the upside. A high-volume move above the upper-end of its recent range could trigger a near-term breakout trade for shares of FRAN post-earnings. If you're bullish on FRAN, then I would wait until after its report and look for long-biased trades if this stock manages to break out above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $27.16 to $28.46 a share and then once it clears more resistance at $29.25 to $29.79 a share with high volume. Look for volume on that move that registers near or above its three-month average action of 950,244 shares. If that breakout triggers, then FRAN will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $32 to $34 a share. I would avoid FRAN or look for short-biased trades if after earnings it fails to trigger that breakout, and then drops back below some key near-term support levels at $26 to $23.92 a share with high volume. If we get that move, then FRAN will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major support levels at $22.31 to its 52-week low at $20.93 a share. Prev 4 of 6 Next

Our last full day in Mar Del Plata
... Joel had seafood again and I had chicken (shocker!). We then headed south to the downtown area. After finding a parking spot - with a similar mafia style parking to Buenos Aires, we went to Mar Del Plata's Modern Art Museum - with a large statue of a sea lion made from wrappers of a local favourite treat, the alfajores by Marta Minujin. Inside a few of the exhibits were closed due to the film festival events. I bought a nice pair of ear rings in ...
Tourista day!
... In front of these buildings are two statues of sea lions - the symbol of Mar Del Plata. We then headed back to the hotel. We are getting a great calf workout in this city because our hotel always seems to be UP no matter what way we come to it. We got into Cecilia's car, and headed farther down to the port. There was a restaurant that Martin had found that came highly recommended. We found a parking spot close, but there was a 40 minute wait for a table so we ...
Road trip!
We were up early this morning to get ready to head to Mar Del Plata. Martin texted around 11am that they were on their way from his apartment so we headed out to the street. Quickly packed our bag in the back and headed to the highway. The trip to Mar Del Plata was about 400 kms and we passed through a few toll booths - mostly inexpensive, but the roads were good. The scenery is so much like home. If the billboards were in English I would of thought we were ...
Elephant seals fighting, penguins mating & whales!
... could have been right down on the coast line, but several of the breeding pairs were right up next to the path - or occasionally on the path. One popped up out of it's nest to our shock right in front of a lady crouched down taking a photo!!! At this time of year the penguins are all coming back to shore to mate, the men dig the nest and wait for the females' approval before she will let him do the deed. There must have been a lot of good nests as there was a lot of ...
Founded by Welsh, made famous by Whales
... close to the seafront. I misjudged just how far, and ended up walking for about an hour. I found the tour company whose leaflet I brought with me. There was a sign in the window saying they were not open on Tuesday 24th August. Also, they only go out at 12.00 everyday, so it would be impossible to get here in time on the bus. Wonderful! There was really nothing else in Rawson. The seafront was nothing special. I couldn't see why anyone ...

Marketing and Collaboration, Department of Energy Resources (DOER)
Schools across the Commonwealth have designed programs that include energy and environment-related themes ranging from energy efficiency to recycling to renewable energy. These initiatives − which include extensions to mandatory K-12 science curricula – are making students an increasingly important part of Massachusetts' clean energy initiatives.
Last May, Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) Secretary Sullivan, on behalf of the Secretary's Advisory Group on Energy and Environmental Education (SAGEE), honored Massachusetts schools, students, and nonprofit organizations from 24 communities across the Commonwealth for their outstanding achievements. Later in May, another group of students and teachers were recognized as Massachusetts and national winners of the NEED (National Energy Education Development Project) Youth Awards. This time EEA Undersecretary for Environment Phillip Griffiths did the honors.
Here's a sampling of the NEED projects undertaken by these students and their advisors:
- Energy saving lighting retrofit that saves $33,000 annually, an energy jobs program, and elementary school student mentoring program – Boston Latin School
- Outreach and education about solar power for municipalities – Sandwich High School
- "Power-Down" program to raise awareness about energy conservation within the school, which led to a 5.5% reduction in energy consumption – Acton-Boxborough Regional High School
- "Energy Savers" education for school staff, students, and the community about ways to conserve energy – Bourne Middle School
- Energy experiments, poems and essays shared with other students, the Sandwich School Committee and community (via local TV) – The Forestdale School, Sandwich MA
- Energy carnival that included a challenge to families to create an energy efficient house from a box , a club for first grader energy education, and an engineering club that built a solar oven – Eastham Elementary School
- "Energize for Our Environment" to raise energy awareness: turning the school parking lot into an idle-free zone and selling CFL's to town citizens – Harwich Community Learning Center
These projects and programs certainly raise literacy among young people. Our hope is that these students will also share this message with their parents and communities: responsible energy use is critical to Massachusetts' future. The SAGEE and NEED youth programs can help spawn a new generation of forward thinking clean energy movers and shakers.
With the new school year beginning, we look forward to seeing what clean energy initiatives students create this year!

Tiny Drone Reveals Ancient Royal Burial SitesBreaking News
A miniature airborne drone has helped archaeologists capture images for creating a 3-D model of an ancient burial mound in Russia, scientists say.
Archaeological sites are often in remote and rugged areas. As such, it can be hard to reach and map them with the limited budgets archaeologists typically have. Scientists are now using drones to extend their view into these hard-to-reach spots.
"There are a lot possibilities with this method," said researcher Marijn Hendrickx, a geographer at the University of Ghent in Belgium....

Issued at 1254 AM CDT WED JUL 20 2016 See below for an updated aviation forecast discussion. UPDATE Issued at 921 PM CDT TUE JUL 19 2016 No changes made to the forecast this evening. && .SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Thursday Night) Issued at 231 PM CDT TUE JUL 19 2016 The main concern in the short term continues to be the heat affecting the region. Temperatures will top out in the 90s to lower 100s and only fall into the upper 60s to 70s overnight. Forecast highs for Wednesday will be the hottest with actual temps ranging from upper 90s in the east to around 105 across central SD. Winds will also be lighter on Wednesday. A sfc low will work its way across the Dakotas on Wednesday and Thursday. H7 temps ranging from +15 to +18 will prevent any convective development on Wed. Overall, the short term is simply dry and hot. The excessive heat warning remains in effect, expanding to include the eastern counties on Wednesday. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Tuesday) Issued at 231 PM CDT TUE JUL 19 2016 The long term portion of the forecast begins with the last, hot and humid day across the region. High temperatures on Friday will likely warm into the 90s and 100 degrees. Sometime Friday afternoon, or more likely Friday night, a strong cold front and upper level shortwave will track across North Dakota. This system should break the cap with thunderstorms possible, especially for northeast SD and western MN. Much cooler and less humid conditions will filter into the region on the back side of this system with temperatures near normal for the weekend. The weather pattern becomes active beyond the weekend with several chances for showers and thunderstorms. Based on the 12Z GFS and ECMWF, Superblend`s pops look good early next week. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday Night) Issued at 1254 AM CDT WED JUL 20 2016 So far, short term guidance has yet to latch on to the stratus clouds developing/streaming up over the prairie coteau (KATY) early this morning. Per satellite trends, sub-vfr stratus will likely be sticking around at KATY well into the morning. Not sure if the stratus will expand over to include KABR for a few hours this morning, but will continue to monitor. Otherwise, expect VFR conditions to prevail across the area through the day Wednesday. && .ABR Watches/Warnings/Advisories...

Category: Do You Need Some Attention?
Claudia Jordan Says She Was Talking Out Of Her Ass About Jamie Foxx And Katie Holmes
If you didn't know who Claudia Jordan was, you learned who she was yesterday when she made WORLDWIDE HEADLINES for confirming that Jamie Foxx and Katie Holmes are bumping nipples. Claudia (who was in The Real Housewives of Atlanta was Briefcase Model #1 on Deal or No Deal) is friends with Jamie, and on the Allegedly podcast yesterday, she earned a dozen thirst points by saying that he's very happy with Katie Holmes. But somebody (read: Suri) must have gotten to Claudia and told her to fix it, because now she's backpedalling so hard that she's probably developed six-packs on her calves.
After Claudia said that Jamie and Katie are very happy, she told Entertainment Tonight that she had no idea what she was talking about. If there was video footage of Claudia on the Allegedly podcast, you'd clearly see her spreading her ass cheeks open in front of a mic to let her b-hole do the talking, because that info about Jamie and Katie has as much weight as a fart. Claudia told ET that she has no idea if FoxHol is real, she's never seem them together, Jamie has never told her that they're together and she "misspoke." The clip is actually kind of funny, because Claudia keeps repeating herself and wants to nail it into our brains that she knows nothing about FoxHol. If you looked into her head, you'd see her brain jizzing from a camera being on her, but you'd also see her praying that Jamie Foxx doesn't kick her out of his entourage.
Or maybe it wasn't Jamie or Katie who got to Claudia. Maybe just maybe Katie has some weird agreement with Tom Cruise and Scientology to not let her relationships go public. Maybe it was Tommy who got to Claudia. I mean, Claudia does look like she's trying not to laugh while remembering the moment when Little Lord Tommy got in her face and threatened her while standing on a stack of phone books on an apple box.
And since I brought up Claudia's ass, here it is in an old bikini photo shoot a few years ago:

Prepare To Be Shocked: Demi Lovato Has Returned To Twitter
One day – ONE DAY – after she dramatically announced she was quitting Twitter and Instagram in an attempt to stop herself from "sayin shit", Demi Lovato is back. I honestly thought she'd at least be able to make it to Friday, but no. Clearly the only thing worse than negative attention was the thought of getting no attention.
Literally 24 hours after she blew her goodbye kisses to the crowd from the metaphorical balcony, she hopped back on Twitter to announce that "the haters" couldn't stop her from tweeting whatever nonsense her fingers felt like typing. It's just like everyone's wise old grandfathers used to say: If you stop being a mess on social media, then the haters have truly won.
Fuck this.. I'm back bitches. And I'm coming back more honest than ever

I love my Lovatics too much to leave them over some lame ass haters.. What was I thinking?! 😝😂
— Demi Lovato (@ddlovato) June 22, 2016
"More honest." Watch out, other famous people – Demi's shit-starting quest continues! I can't wait to see who Demi comes for next. My money is on either Meghan Trainor or that famous Instagram dog whose tongue is always hanging out.
Okay, let's see if I can't get this straight. Demi quit Twitter and Instagram because she finally realized she kept saying stuff that was getting her into trouble and that bad internet strangers were bothering her. But then she returned vowing to say even more stuff that will inevitably get her into trouble. You know, for the good internet strangers. Does anyone know how to get Demi's number to Iyanla Vanzant? Because this feels like a real Fix My Life situation. You know your life needs some SuperSoul Sunday-levels of fixing when you're crying wolf about quitting Twitter.

Iggy Azalea Has Found A Way To Get Herself Involved In This "Becky With The Good Hair" Business
Hot on the heels of fellow How Is She Still A Thing? club member Rita Ora, Iggy Azalea has decided to get herself a lil' slice of attention pie by uttering this week's phrase that pays, "Becky." That's right, Iggy Azalea wants you to know that she definitely is NOT a Becky with good, bad or any other kind of hair. She is not a Becky at all and doesn't want you calling her that.
Attention Seeker Seeks Attention, As Usual
Because self-awareness and dignity are not things Kris's Kadets learn, Kimmy Krapdashian surprised no one when she tried to make last night about her. Kimmy, Kimmy, Kimmy… The waxed ball of butt implants decided to post a bunch of thirst trap pictures to Twitter and number them countdown/art serial number style while Beyonce's Lemonade was airing on HBO last night. Koincedence? I think not. The black and white snaps are close-ups of legs and tits and her face, basically what comes to mind when you think of her. They're also just krappy pictures kropped krappily with a black and white filter thrown in to try and make you think Kim is entering her "artist" phase.
Well, Well, Well, Look What Happened Yesterday
I'd say this is the first sign of end times, but this is an event far unholier than any of that. I'm pretty sure even the Four Horsemen are nervously thinking, "What's happening? I'm scared", as the sound of Kris Jenner gleefully cackling echoes around them.
Yesterday afternoon, in what was probably an attempt to yank some attention away from His Majesty Prince (or at least try to distract our eyes from that beautiful video of him kicking her older sister off stage), Kylie Jenner posed for some social media selfies with Blac Chyna. That's right – Kylie Jenner just so happened to make friends with the kurrent biggest kramp in the Kardashian's rubber asses and her sworn enemy on the day a legend died.
Kanye West Has Been Talking About Taylor Swift Again
I guess going all of six weeks without seeing his name in the news accompanied by the words "… started ranting about (insert name of famous person)" was irritating Kanye West's attention-hole, because he recently dragged a famous person into a rant. This time it was his on-again/off-again enemy Taylor Swift. Billboard says that Kanye once again got into his never-ending messy relationship with her during a concert in the Philippines on Saturday.
And On The Next Keeping Up With The Kartrashians….
It's been approximately 45 seconds since Blac Chyna squirted out that THOTful Instagram post where she made it clear that she's bumping her humongous stress ball ass cheeks against Rob Kardashian's FUPA. Since then, Pimp Mama Kris has really made the most of this family "scandal" by probably leaking stories about how Kylie Jenner is mad about her brother doing her boyfriend's baby mother and how the Kartrashians think that Blac Chyna is using Rob. They're pissed because only they are allowed to use a ho for cheap publicity!
But really, I guess Rob finally picked up a script, because today he posted that note and SANS FARDS picture of Blac Chyna on Instagram. Handymen are probably busy loosening the Botox in Kim Kartrashian's mug with chisels so that her cry face looks sort of natural when she shoots her response to that Instagram post for the season finale of Keeping Up with the Kartrashians. TMZ also posted a pro-Blac Chyna story that claims she's helping him lose the chunk and get healthy.
Sources close to the unexpected couple tell TMZ, Chyna has been a positive influence on Rob because she's helping him get back in shape.
We're told Chyna introduced Rob to her personal trainer about a month ago, and since then they've done several intense workouts together.
So let's see, Blac Chyna is the enemy of the Kartrashians who is healing Rob's sugar-filled heart and is helping him once again rebel against his family of fame whores. I see that Pimp Mama Kris is blatantly stealing storylines from soap operas now. Let's hope that she steals her next storyline from One Life to Live and her entire family gets trapped in an underground city far away from civilization!
"Um Hello? I'm Rebounding With Another Musician Too, You Know"
Not content to let her ex-husband cause a massive nationwide drought with his latest thirst-quenching stunt, Miranda Lambert – seen above snuggling some sort of Brooklyn Bill Gates impersonator – decided to get in on the action too. And frankly, I'm SHOCKED it took this long. Shortly after Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton took their marriage out behind Pa's barn and gave it the Old Yeller treatment back in July, rumors started going around that she practically had an air traffic controller directing dick to her coochie. So naturally I assumed she'd be the first to rebound.
Sadly, I underestimated the power of a desperate publicity team and it turned out Blake would beat her to it with Gwen Stefani (who are currently gunning for an ENOUGH ALREADY!!! Achievement Award). Miranda, however decided to take a much more subtle and traditional approach: she threw up a picture of herself and her new man in matching floppy hats to Instagram with the caption "The snuggle is real." No public FaceTime chats? No shameless pop/country crossover duet? How positively quaint.
According to People, the hipster elf snuggling under Miranda's blanket is a 27-year-old R&B singer named Anderson East. My initial response to that was to side-eye Miranda for breaking the half-your-age-plus-7 rule, but apparently she's only 32. In which case, get it girl! Get that fresh five-years-younger rebound dick!
Speaking of quaint, here's one-half of Stefon (I know, how DARE sully Stefon's good name like that) doing her weekly pap walk at the nail salon with her phone screen in full view. And for once in what seems like forever, there isn't a crystal-clear FaceTime call with Blake Shelton on it. But…but she always has a public FaceTime call with Blake Shelton open on her phone! Something is very wrong here – there's clearly a disturbance in the attention whore force. Hold me, I'm scared.

You Kan Always Kount On Kim Kardashian To Bring Plenty Of Klass And Sophistikation To An Event
Looks like we can add another ensemble to Tim Gunn's "Don't Wear This" list of vulgar fashion atrocities.
The fifth annual LACMA Art+Film gala was held last night, and Kim Kardashian was there, which makes total sense, because Kim got her start in film. No, it's because she's a high klass lady who goes to high klass film galas. Also because Kris Jenner would go absolutely apeshit if she found out her top money maker passed up an opportunity to get dressed up in her "LOOK AT ME" finest and serve up some half-asleep FACE for the cameras.
We all know that Kim Kardashian has a severe allergy to good taste, so it's really no surprise that she would show up to the LACMA gala in a cheap-looking Leg Avenue body stocking with her tits out. I mean, she had to do something to get some attention; she went a whole 24 hours without all eyes on her, thanks to her mother selfishly stealing the spotlight with her million-dollar
Great Mediocre Gatsby birthday party yesterday. So really, it's more of a shock that she didn't double-down and try to make up for lost attention by showing up totally nude while her intern (Kylie Jenner) followed closely behind, spritzing her plastic parts with Crisco.
Here's more of Kim looking like a Living Dead Doll of a knocked-up zombie stripper at the LACMA Art+Film gala last night, as well all the other famous types who were there, like Reese Witherspoon, Goopy Paltrow, and Jared Leto, who is still working the malnourished methhead Joker look, I see.
Jennifer Lawrence, NO!
"Hey girls, meet your new sister – Katniss Kardashian! Yes, she's about 28 lbs too light in the ass, but I'm sure a couple visits to the Kardashian Khompound's In-House Rump Plumper will take care of that."
Sometime late last night, Satan's right-hand hooker and reason for upgrading his phone plan to include call display, Kris Jenner, wrapped her hooves around America's Fart-Ripping Girlfriend Jennifer Lawrence, summoned one of her minions to take a picture, and released to the internet. I've seen The Exorcist, I know what's happening here – this is what it looks like the moment before you're about to be possessed by a dark-sided social-climbing demon. (Crosses self, reaches for the holy water) I'm going to need an old priest, a young priest, and an extra-large pepperoni pizza. Back away from the legitimate celebrity, Kris!
Kris threw up the picture (which was apparently taken by the Kronk to her Yzma, Corey Gamble) to Instagram with the following caption:
"Happy Birthday you piece of shit… God I love you #Jenniferlawrence thanks for making this night a night to remember…..even if we did get caught… I love you Happy Birthday Gorgeous!!! #Bible #momager #doll"
Somewhere in a giant pile of unsold socks, Pimp Mama Kris' lowest earner Rob Kardashian read the words "you piece of shit" and got a little jealous.
I still have no idea what Kris Jenner and Jennifer Lawrence were doing in the same picture. I guess the only explanation I can come to is that a hungry hungry JLaw uttered the words "I'd do anything for a dozen deep-fried donut-glazed chicken wings" in her kitchen one night, at which point Lucifer appeared through a firey hole in her kitchen floor and hissed "I think I can arrange that. The only thing is, you're going to have to do some truly despicable shit for them." Then Lucifer escorted JLaw to a hotel room containing an iPhone and the Pimp Mistress (who took one look at JLaw, started thinking about how much attention she was about to receive, and nearly blew out the load-bearing beam in her nose by hyperventilating too hard). You know JLaw was probably like "Is it too late to sell you my soul instead?"

When was "The Waste Land" by Alan Paton written and what was it about?
2 Answers | Add Yours
"The Wasteland" was published as part of Alan Paton's collection "Tales from a Troubled Land." This collection was published in 1961.
In this very short story, a man gets off a bus and is mugged by a group of young men. He manages to hit one of them over the head with a large stick. He then hides under a truck.
The rest of the gang come panting up soon afterward. From their conversation, it soon becomes clear that the person the mugging victim hit over the head was his own son, Freddy. Freddy is dead, and his friends take his body and throw it in under the truck, next to his father.
"The Waste Land," published in 1961, is about a man who faces a gang of young men when he leaves a bus with his pay in hand. The man immediately fears for his family and thinks, "His wife could be made a widow, his children made fatherless." He escapes to a wasteland of broken-down cars, and he fears death. While running away from his attackers, he faces one of them with a stick and brings it down upon his attacker's head. He then hides under a truck and hears one of the men address his own son, Freddy, to tell him that his father has gotten away. The other men place the dead body of his son next to him, as the protagonist realizes that he inadvertently killed his own son. Rather than his son being fatherless, he is without a son. He then curses the world and refers to it as a "wasteland."
This story was written during apartheid, or the system or rigid racial segregation in South Africa. The deeper meaning of the story is the way in which this type of brutality destroys the society so that it has become a wasteland. This society has become so devastated that a son attempts to rob his own father and the normal ties of family love are forever shattered.

Perhaps emboldened by the success of his initial endeavor into true crime (AN INNOCENT MAN), John Grisham continues to expand his literary repertoire with his first collection of short stories. Fittingly, the stories document the various interactions of citizens in the fictional locale of Ford County, Mississippi, the setting of several of Grisham's beloved legal thrillers, where disparities, both superficial (race) and significant (class), often overwhelm the more fundamental similarities between people.

The story starts out with some seemingly unrelated business involving Joe(Hackman)out for some innocent hunting,taking notes of some kind and walking away.The scene then switches to the big city where Joe and his crew Bobby(Delroy Lindo),Pinky(Ricky Jay)and Fran(Rebecca Pidgeon)are all heavily involved in quite the complicated upscale jewelery store heist.Once inside the store a snag occurs when one of the employees has failed to be pre-drugged and is up walking around.Joe must Tazer her but in the process he is caught on the security cameras.While his buddies go to work getting the goods Joe desperately tries to gain access to the locked security hardware but fails.
Now facially tagged by the police he believes he must retire out of the business.When he brings the goods to his fence Mickey(Danny Devito),Mickey takes advantage of the situation to bring him back for one more job;to rob a Swiss plane of its gold.Having no choice this is about when Joe says he will stand the job on its ear and we watch as Joe's plan unfolds;using sleight of hand as his play book.As an insurance policy Mickey sends his nephew Jimmy(Sam Rockwell)along as his eyes and ears to see nothing goes awry.During a preliminary set up of the inital plan an "argument" breaks out between all of the conspirators and a seeming break up occurs between Joe and Bobby because of Jimmy's sloppiness and naiveté.Read more ›
Nothing is gratuitous in HEIST, every scene has a meaning the viewer is asked to understand. So, apart of enjoying the story told by David Mamet, I've spent a lot of time, during the movie, wondering WHY the director has chosen not to show certain scenes that would have been obligatory with another director, WHY the movie is literally invaded by all kind of pipes from the first to the last scene, WHY Gene Hackman is smiling at the end of the movie and so on.
I admit it, I simply love the films that make me think, the films that keep me intellectually active. Such movies are hard to find nowadays so let's cherish them when we have this opportunity. Too bad though that the DVD presents no special extras. I would have greatly appreciated a Mamet's interview.
Dr Jacques COULARDEAU
-- Danny Devito, "Heist"
So explains Danny DeVito to Gene Hackman in a phone conversation in David Mamet's latest film, "Heist". The movie (available on Warner Brothers DVD) reminded me of just how much I enjoy going to the movies and watching the lights dim just as the picture begins to roll.
It begins with the vintage 50's logo and music of Warner Brothers (in black-and-white, no less) and we meet Joe (Gene Hackman), an aging crook who just wants to get out of the game before it's too late. He and his wife Fran (Rebecca Pidgeon) and his friends Bobby (Delroy Lindo) and "Pinky" (Ricky Jay) are pulling off what is to be a final stunning jewel-heist in the middle of the city and are bringing the loot to their fence (Danny DeVito).
It's only here that the first double-cross takes place and we learn that Joe's crew will only be paid half of what they were promised. Their fence has a final score to end all scores: he wants them to rob a cache of gold from a Swiss airliner.
The plans are all ready but Joe is sick of the life and just wants what he and his crew were owed. Eventually and reluctantly, Joe agrees to take the job and works out the details with his crew. Everything is set, the gang is all here, and it looks way too easy...
However, we are talking about a film written and directed by the modern-day master of suspense David Mamet and having said that, things are not easy.
This is a FINE film, a homage to past film-noir pieces with Hackman making a wonderful anti-hero in the best sense possible. His character is aging and doesn't want to do the job he is assigned. He tries to run from his fate but keeps getting pulled back into the fray.Read more ›

Rheumatoid Arthritis: Natural Remedies?
I have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Do you have any suggestions for natural methods of pain management or to control the disease?
Answer (Published 12/13/2002)
Updated on 6/20/2005
Rheumatoid arthritis is one of the most common autoimmune disorders, diseases caused by the immune system attacking the body's own tissues. Autoimmune reactions may be triggered by infection, tissue injury, or emotional trauma in people with a genetic predisposition to them. Conventional medicine treats rheumatoid arthritis (and other autoimmune diseases) with steroids and other immunosuppressive medications, most of which are toxic when used long-term. Try to avoid these strong drugs if you can. Patients who are dependent on them are less likely to respond to natural treatments.

|‡ As per RA 8811, Cabadbaran is the officially-designated capital of the province. However, the provincial government still holds office in Butuan City, pending the actual transfer of provincial offices to the new capital.
Agusan del Norte (Butuanon: Probinsya hong Agusan del Norte; Cebuano: Amihanang Agusan; Filipino: Hilagang Agusan) is a province in the Philippines located in the Caraga region in Mindanao. Its capital is the city of Cabadbaran and it is bordered on the northeast by Surigao del Norte; mid-east by Surigao del Sur; southeast by Agusan del Sur, and southwest by Misamis Oriental. It faces Butuan Bay, part of the Bohol Sea, to the northwest.
|This section requires expansion. (April 2016)
Spanish and American era[edit]
Prior to its creation as an independent province, Agusan, as it was once undivided, was under the jurisdiction of Surigao province during the Spanish colonial period. In 1911, Agusan was separated from Surigao by the American government, creating the Agusan province.[3]
World War II[edit]
During World War II in 1942, the Japanese Imperial forces landed in Northern Agusan.[further explanation needed]
In 1945, Filipino soldiers of the 6th, 10th, 101st, 102nd, 103rd, 107th and 110th Infantry Division of the Philippine Commonwealth Army and the 10th Infantry Regiment of the Philippine Constabulary together with the recognized Agusan guerrilla fighter units against the Japanese forces beginning the liberation in Northern Agusan during World War II.[further explanation needed]
During the war, a unit of the joint Philippine-American defense force were located at Manot, Talacogon, in the interior of the Agusan Valley.
In 1967, Republic Act 4979 divided Agusan into two independent provinces: Agusan del Norte and Agusan del Sur.[4]
On August 16, 2000, the seat of provincial government was transferred from Butuan City to Cabadbaran through Republic Act 8811,[5] although the province is yet to complete the transfer of provincial services and functions to the new capital.
Agusan del Norte is situated in the western section of the Caraga Administrative Region in Mindanao. It is bordered on the northwest by the Butuan Bay; northeast by Surigao del Norte; mid-east by Surigao del Sur; southeast by Agusan del Sur, and southwest by Misamis Oriental. Agusan del Norte has a total land area of 2,730.24 square kilometres or 1,054.15 square miles. When Butuan City is included for geographical purposes, the province's land area is 3,546.86 square kilometres (1,369.45 sq mi). [6]
The central portion of the province forms the lower basin of the third longest river in the country, the Agusan, its mouth located at the Butuan Bay. Consequently, the terrain surrounding the river features flat to rolling lands. Mountainous terrain dominate the northeastern and western areas.[3]
The country's fourth largest lake, Lake Mainit is situated at the northern border between the province of Surigao del Norte.[7]
Administrative divisions[edit]
Agusan del Norte comprises 10 municipalities and 1 component city.
The city of Cabadbaran is the officially-designated capital of the province per Republic Act 8811.[5] The highly urbanized city of Butuan is geographically within but administratively independent from the province.

|Population census
of Agusan del Norte
|±% p.a.
|(excluding Butuan City)
Source: National Statistics Office[2][8][8]
The population of Agusan del Norte in the 2015 census was 354,503 people,[2] making it the country's 64th most populous province. It had a density of 130 inhabitants per square kilometre or 340 inhabitants per square mile.
When the highly urbanized city of Butuan is included for geographical purposes, the province's population is 691,566 people, with a density of 195 inhabitants per square kilometre (510/sq mi).
In 2013, the Diocese of Butuan (Catholic-Hierarchy) reported that Roman Catholicism is the predominant religion of the province comprising roughly 79% of the population.[citation needed] The remaining beliefs usually belong to other Christian denominations as well as Islam.
The economy of the province is dominantly agricultural, major crops of which include rice, corn, coconut, abaca, banana and mango.[9]
The province has many beaches in Cabadbaran and the municipalities of Carmen, Buenavista, and Nasipit. Mount Hilong-Hilong, one of the tallest in the province, is located in Cabadbaran.
From the top of Prayer Mountain (Mount Pongkay), visitors can have a panoramic view of Cabadbaran which includes buildings, churches, rivers, and the sea. The Agusan River, the longest in Mindanao and the third longest in the Philippines, is in Butuan City. Looming southwest of the Agusan Valley is Mount Mayapay, a mountain plateau. The ancient Balangay boats were found in Butuan, excavated in the Balangay Shrine across the Masao River from Bood Promontory. They played a major role because of Butuan being a port city. Since its discovery, the Balangays have become an icon of Butuan. The Kaya ng Pinoy, Inc. recreated the Balangay boats and have sailed it as part of their project, the Balangay Voyage.

My grandson Jason gives me ingredient money to make him 3-4 crock pots of soup each month. He works for the state and it's perfect to just grab from the freezer and heat for lunch. I keep back two servings of each too... just for me!
One of his staples is Chicken Taco Soup. It's the easiest one I make and only takes about 2 hours vs. 6-8 hours, plus I make it on the stove rather than the crock pot.
Approximate Time: 2 Hours
Yield: 9-10 cups

This is an inexpensive "dump recipe" - throw it in the pot, stir, then it's done! I had it in my head until I was pressed for time one night. My husband offered to make it, but I couldn't tell him what the amounts were.
Years ago I used to make a taco soup that contained hamburger, taco seasoning, tomatoes, and Velveeta. I can't remember the rest of the ingredients, or the directions. I do know it contained "no" Ranch dressing. I can't stand Ranch dressing! All of the recipes I have found on-line contain Ranch dressing. If anyone has the recipe or something similar I would appreciate it. Thanks.

This recipe sounds close to what you are looking for. If you don't want the canned corn in it, you can substitute a can of beans.

This hearty taco soup is a quick and easy meal that everyone will love! View the full recipe here: 8 Can Chicken Taco Soup
Saute beef in a stock pan with minced onion and clove of garlic, add salt and pepper to taste, drain fat. Add water, start with 4 and add more later if needed.
This is a modification of a standard recipe that reduces the salt and eliminates packaged seasonings so you can vary the amount of seasonings to suit your taste for a fresher, healthier dish.
DH likes for me to throw stuff in a pot and make impromptu soup. Today I decided to brown some ground beef as I would for chili or spaghetti. I usually use canned tomatoes and a small can of tomato sauce and then just start throwing stuff in, such as, potatoes, onions, peas, carrots, etc.
This time I decided to toss in a packet of taco seasoning mix. Voila! Taco soup. Delicioso by the way.

Pour all of the cans into the crockpot, don't drain anything! Add in the seasoning, water and onion; stir. Submerge the chicken breast into the mix and cook on low for 8 hours/high for 4 hours.
I love Mexican foods but dislike soup using chicken. The weather got cold here so I decided to make tacos in soup form.
Combine all in large slow cooker and stir. If you like it hot add 1 chopped jalapeno pepper. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours.
This is so easy and so yummy! It is made of healthy ingredients, makes a lot in a short amount of time, and is very satisfying and filling.
Prepare chicken breasts, or use leftovers. Pour cans of black and pinto beans, corn, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, cooked cubed or shredded chicken breasts, and dash of sugar in a large saucepan. Heat to boiling, and reduce heat to low to keep soup warm for serving.
You can just serve or eat it how it is, or you can put tortilla chips in a bowl, squeeze lime juice on the chips and add shredded cheese and/or sour cream. Pour soup over the top and serve!
If you like taco seasoning, you can add that (I personally like it without!)

I'm a vegetarian so I'll leave out the chicken, but besides the meat, This recipe sounds SO very YUMMY! It was the lime juice that called my name! I love things that are a bit tart. I can't wait to try it. I'll make up a batch and freeze 1 cup portions in zip-lock baggies to microwave later. Thank you for posting it! (04/26/2009)

My family loves this recipe. It's also quick.
Brown ground beef, drain and rinse. Put the ground beef into a large pot. Add the Taco Seasoning, drained beans, canned tomatoes and the can of soup. Add 1 can of water. Heat through and let simmer for a few minutes. Dish into soup bowls and sprinkle with grated cheese. We like ours thick so we can use tortilla chips as our spoons. Yum!
