Though the form Aser uniformly appears in the Septuagint, Vulgate, and Douay versions, an inspection of the original text clearly shows that the correct form of the name is Asher.
I. Aser was the eighth son of Jacob, born to him in Paddan-Aram. He was the second son of Zelpha, the handmaid of Lia, Jacob's wife. His name is derived from the root Asher , to make or declare happy . His mother bestowed this name on him; for she declared that through her childbearing "women will call me blessed " ( Genesis 30:13 ). In the Bible there are recorded of Aser four sons and one daughter called Sara ( Genesis 46:17 ). The descendants of Aser are enumerated ( 1 Chronicles 7:30-40 ).
II. One of the twelve tribes of Israel, being descended from Aser, the son of Israel. Its tribal territory is described in Josue, xix, 24-31. It stretched along the Mediterranean Sea from Mt. Carmel northward to the river Leontes, the modern Nahr el-Quasimiyeh. Its eastern boundary was an irregular line, dividing it from Zabulon and Nephtali. Its farthest eastward boundary was the city Ahalab, most probably the modern El-Djich. The land of Aser held twenty-two cities, with their villages; but the Aserites did not drive out the inhabitants of these cities but dwelt among them. Their land was fertile, as was foretold by Jacob : the bread of Aser was fat; he yielded royal dainties ( Genesis 49:20 ); he dipped his foot in oil ( Deuteronomy 33:24 ). The numerous valleys of the land are well watered by the wadys El-Houbeichiyeh, El-Ezziyeh, Ez-Zerka, Ker Kera, El-Kourn; and the rivers Nahr Mefschoukh, Nahr Semiriyeh, Nahr Namin, and Nahr el-Moukhatta, the ancient Cison. Aser's littoral was irregular. Its northern portion has a mean width of less than two miles. At Ras en-Naqurah, the ancient Scala Tyriorum , the mountain plunges its wall of rock out to the water-line. Southward from this point the littoral broadens until, at Ez-zib and on southward to Saint Jean d'Acre, it is sometimes more than ten miles in width. This great plain and the valleys extending inland produced for Aser an abundance of wheat, barley, and other cereals. Even in the present decadent state of the land, the region is rich in cereals. The slopes of the hills, now covered with thick brushwood, were, in the days of Israel's prosperity, covered with olive-trees, fig-trees, and vines. The fertility of the land gave rise to the saying, that in Aser oil flowed as a river. The valleys, the slopes of the hills, and the high places are covered with Chanaanean, Jewish, Byzantine, and later ruins, showing a sort of stratified succession of the civilizations that have flourished in the land. In the history of Israel the tribe of Aser plays an unimportant part. When the first census of Israel was made at Sinai, Aser numbered 41,500 men that were able to go forth to war ( Numbers 1:40-41 ). Their chief was Phegiel, the son of Ochran. In Num., xxvi, 47, this number had grown to 53,400. When the warriors of the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron to make him King over Israel, there came out of Aser 40,000 soldiers [I Par. (Chron.), xii, 36]. Aser's offering for the first altar dedicated by Moses in the desert is recorded in Num., vii, 72-77. In the tribe of Aser there were four Levitical cities: Masal, Abdon, Helcath, and Rohob, with their suburbs. When Zabulon and Nephtali exposed their lives unto death in war against Jabin, King of Chanaan, "Aser dwelt on the seashore, and abode in the havens"; hence it is chided in the Song of Debbora ( Judges 5:17 ). It redeemed itself somewhat from this reproach by marching with Gideon against Madian. When Ezechias invited the men of the northern kingdom of Israel to come to the house of the Lord at Jerusalem to keep the Passover, some of the tribe of Aser came ( 2 Chronicles 30:11 ).---Anna the prophetess was of Aser ( Luke 2:36 ).
III. Aser, a frontier village of the cis-Jordanic territory of the tribe of Manasses; most probably the modern Teiasir.
IV. Aser, an erroneous rendering in the Vulgate ( Exodus 6:24 ), of the name Assir, the son of Core. In the Vulgate text of 1 Chronicles 6:22 , the same person is called Asir.

Designed to present its readers with the full body of Catholic teaching, the Encyclopedia contains not only precise statements of what the Church has defined, but also an impartial record of different views of acknowledged authority on all disputed questions, national, political or factional. In the determination of the truth the most recent and acknowledged scientific methods are employed, and the results of the latest research in theology, philosophy, history, apologetics, archaeology, and other sciences are given careful consideration.
No one who is interested in human history, past and present, can ignore the Catholic Church, either as an institution which has been the central figure in the civilized world for nearly two thousand years, decisively affecting its destinies, religious, literary, scientific, social and political, or as an existing power whose influence and activity extend to every part of the globe. In the past century the Church has grown both extensively and intensively among English-speaking peoples. Their living interests demand that they should have the means of informing themselves about this vast institution, which, whether they are Catholics or not, affects their fortunes and their destiny.

Adoremus, Society for the Renewal of the Sacred Liturgy
Cardinal William Keeler's November 1, 1994 statement on NRSV and RNAB Scripture texts for liturgical use
In the interest of clarification of the status of the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV) and Revised New American Bible (RNAB) scripture texts for liturgical use, Cardinal William Keeler, president of the United States bishops' conference, made this statement on November 1, 1994. (Cardinal Keeler's statement was originally published in Origins: November 10, 1994, p 376.)
See related article, "Confusion About Scripture Translations for Liturgical Use", AB March 1996
"Last week in Rome, Archbishop Geraldo Agnelo, secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, confirmed that a letter addressed to me on July 27, 1994, constituted the congregation's communication to us of the withdrawal of the permission to use the New Revised Standard Version for liturgical purposes.
"An official of the congregation had informed Msgr. Robert N. Lynch, NCCB/USCC general secretary, at a private meeting on Oct. 5, 1994, that the July letter was the official response on the matter. Subsequent press coverage, however, seemed to indicate to the conference's staff in Washington that perhaps a new letter had been prepared and mailed.
"Because the July 27 letter did not bear the characteristics of a formal decree, my presumption was that it was a continuation of correspondence that had begun earlier last summer. Also, at the time of this correspondence, the preparation of the Revised New American Bible (NAB) Lectionary was the more immediate concern for us in the United States. Following receipt of correspondence from the Congregation for Divine Worship, those working with the Revised NAB Lectionary in this country began preparing a response to the observations received from the Holy See. These were completed recently but have not been forwarded to the congregation.
"Last week in Rome, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, kindly met with me and, following the review of the situation, agreed that it would be very helpful if members of the Pontifical Biblical Commission residing in Rome could meet with some of our bishops and scholars who are working on the Revised NAB Lectionary to discuss and clarify principles for translation. It is in the context of the review of the Revised NAB Lectionary that the confirmation of the permission for liturgical use of the NAB Psalter has been withdrawn, as was also indicated in the July 27 letter. Because of the foreseeable modifications in the Psalter, permission was withdrawn so that two versions of the same psalter not be in use.
"The use of either the NRSV or the revised NAB for reading or Bible study is not at issue. Both translations are properly approved for these purposes.
"What is at issue is liturgical use, the public proclamation of the Word of God in the living tradition of the Catholic Church. One of the points which I believe the scholars would want to discuss is the application of the apostolic constitution Scripturarum Thesaurus of April 25, 1969, and the decree of the Congregation for Divine Worship and for the Discipline of the Sacraments issued on Jan. 21, 1981, as guides, especially for liturgical translations.
"The continued collaboration between the congregations of the Holy See and the committees of our conference should help us soon to have a Lectionary which will be both faithful to the tradition of the Church and serve the urgent needs of our people for a lectionary in the English currently used in our country."

12/13 Cubs and Sanchez – UPDATED
Anibal Sanchez apparently has decided to stay with the Tigers. The Cubs were one of the teams to make an offer to the free agent pitcher, but he agreed to a five-year, $80 million contract with Detroit. According to Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports and MLB Network, the Cubs did discuss a five-year, $75 million deal, and apparently raised the salary figure to $77.5 million early Friday. Sanchez, 28, would have given the Cubs a more competitive rotation next season. However, he had to decide whether to join a team still in rebuilding mode or stay with the defending American League champions.
— Carrie Muskat

ah nards!! i wish it was true that the Cubs did sign Anibal Sanchez, it would have given us a good starting rotation. hope it still happens though!!
with this offense there is pretty much no way we stay out of 90+ losses… 100 if we sell at the deadline like we did last year. Especially if we trade Soriano bc whether you want to hear it or not he is the best run producer on this team right now… granted Rizzo could take a step forward and produce big time but as of RIGHT NOW… Soriano is our best run producer.
I am going to suggest a trade with the Tigers…. Castro for Rick Porcello, Aviel Garcia, Brendon Bosch, Jhonny Peralta and Danny Worth. The Cubs improve immediately. They need depth and the Tigers need a shortstop…..

CORVALLIS — Obum Gwacham struggled to fall asleep during the week leading up to Saturday's season opener against Eastern Washington. The Oregon State wide receiver often lay in bed until 2 or 3 a.m., pondering plays until the fatigue finally set in.
Then the dreams started. Gwacham saw himself catching passes, winning games, racking up big-time numbers.
For the most part, that's where the impact performances have stayed the past three seasons: Gwacham's dreams. The 6-foot-5, 224-pound redshirt junior boasts an NFL-ready frame and mind-boggling hops. But Gwacham has only recorded 10 catches and one touchdown since arriving in Corvallis in 2010.
And after delivering yet another disappointing showing against the Eagles on Saturday, Gwacham may have a tough time realizing his enormous potential this season. Redshirt sophomore Richard Mullaney, Gwacham's chief competition to replace now-NFL rookie Markus Wheaton at starting split end, has taken notable strides toward officially securing the gig in recent weeks.
Mullaney impressed Beavers coaches with his Mike Hass-like hands throughout fall camp, and he did nothing to temper expectations Saturday. The Thousand Oaks, Calif., native played the majority of the game, finishing with four catches for 48 yards. He also blocked well for OSU's running backs, a skill wide receivers coach Brent Brennan wanted to see from Mullaney.
"I thought Mullaney went in there and did a really good job," Brennan said. "He continued to show us that you can throw the ball up in his vicinity, and he'll come up with it."
Gwacham, meanwhile, showed the opposite. Early in the second quarter, quarterback Sean Mannion targeted him on two consecutive plays. On the first one, Gwacham overran his route and dropped the ball. A defender deflected his second — and final — opportunity of the day, forcing OSU to settle for a 33-yard field goal.
The miscues proved that Gwacham is "just not quite where he needs to be to be a big player for us at that position," Brennan said. So it's no surprise Mullaney, who entered the game first Saturday, is listed above Gwacham on the Beavers' latest depth chart.
"I feel like I am (ready to start)," Gwacham said. "I mean, maybe sometimes I'm overthinking it. But I felt good Saturday. It was really two plays that I kind of wish I could take back. But that's football. It's not always going to be perfect."
He should know. Fans probably best remember Gwacham as the guy who entered the Washington game last October and dropped several passes. The coaches replaced Gwacham midway through the third quarter with Mullaney, who nabbed a 45-yard pass to give the Beavers a first down.
But will those gaffs against the Huskies ultimately serve as Gwacham's legacy at OSU? Brennan hopes not. He has seen the track star make highlight-caliber grabs in practice. And he has appreciated Gwacham's relentless desire to improve.
"Obviously he's a big guy," Mullaney said. "He's really good at getting off the line and using his strength to his advantage, and he puts in the work."
Gwacham was the last player off the practice field Tuesday. He worked with coaches for more than a half hour on refining his pass-catching abilities. But "the hard thing about major college football," Brennan explained, is "it's a results-oriented business. You've got to play well to continue to run out there."
If Gwacham doesn't start catching the ball consistently on Saturdays, he may never get the chance to prove he can become a critical part of OSU's offense.
He may have to settle for dreaming about impact performances.

...will the machine pick it up? I finally figured this really hard math problem out and just as I started bubbling the proctor called time up...arghhh

So why didn't you just finish it...

if you bubbled half of it im pretty confident that the machine will pick it up.
|By Simei (Simei) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 12:43 am: Edit
thx Needhelp06~ now i feel better~
Crypto86~ i was sitting in the front row and the proctor was just glaring at me...plus that this kid went over time for like 30 seconds when we were taking wirting so she speicifically warned us that she'll report anybody who does that again~
|By Neelesh (Neelesh) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 12:48 am: Edit
wow. ur proctor suxed ass..
i dont no if it picked it up. because, in the book
UP YOUR SCORE, they say that the computer figures out a pattern in your bubbling, like if u do a slash in every bubble, it will count it. so if you break the pattern, it will not read it.
this is just a theory, and i do not know if they are correct or not. so hope it picks it up!
|By Altf4 (Altf4) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 12:53 am: Edit
lol, my proctor...was ahem ahem ahem yea, not paying attention, didn't even look around the room during the hour
i hate how erasures are misscored that just pisses me off, b/c there's only a certain extent to which u can remove the "blackness" that ur pencil has left behind without tearing up the paper. i had to erase one thing today, i just hope it scored it correctly cause the one i changed it to was the correct one, 100% positive
|By Simei (Simei) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 12:56 pm: Edit
*sigh* really hope it'd pick it up...and I have like three eraser marks, too! I guess I'll just see how my score turn out to be...if it's too unusual I'll just have them hand-score it
*goes off to check out info about hand-scoring*
|By Altf4 (Altf4) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 01:09 pm: Edit
wait, after the official scores are sent, u can still have them hand score it still?
|By Simei (Simei) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 01:09 pm: Edit
omg~ i just went to collegeboard.com and I can't find the little section about hand-scoring anymore...does anybody know if they still offer that service? how exactly does it work?
|By Simei (Simei) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 01:11 pm: Edit
if i remember correctly...it used to say that if u received ur score and feel that something's not right , u can have them hand-score it...of course it takes some $ and then it may take up to 6 weeks or months or something i can't really remember
|By Foreignboy (Foreignboy) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 01:12 pm: Edit
You can pay them to recheck if you think the machine scoring messed up. I wouldn't really worry about it too much though. You should have seen my 2C... it had smudges and black marks all over. Still got my 800 though. Ha.
|By Zbjz15 (Zbjz15) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 01:30 pm: Edit
Yea, I was wondering how good they are with eraser marks. I had 1 or two and would hate to get penalized because of machine error. I know the scantron at our school always makes mistakes, I hope they have a super one for the SAT.
|By Tired_Student (Tired_Student) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 01:41 pm: Edit
doesnt it take like half a second to finish filling in the bubble, unless you fill bubbles with and up and down motion instead of a circular motion. But seriously, those SAT bubbles are pretty huge, thats why i bubble with 5 minutes left, since its faster to go down a page bubbling then stopping after every question.
|By Altf4 (Altf4) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 01:52 pm: Edit
it would suck if i did what i think i did, even though i ended up on the right no. at the end- i might have misaligned the answers..
there's no way to prove that i did or did not
how common is this mistake of misalignement?
|By Needhelp06 (Needhelp06) on Sunday, June 06, 2004 - 04:20 pm: Edit
i was pretty messy about my bubbling on the SAT I Math. Like I had tons of eraser marks and I bubbled outside the bubble line. I didnt miss any so I doubt the computer is very picky about the way you bubble things in. Half a bubble is enough to be picked up, and I would be surprised if it wasnt.

Christina Hendricks has injured herself by falling down stairs.
The 'Mad Men' star was wearing a onesie when she tripped and fell, leaving her bruised and embarrassed.
"I was walking down the stairs in pyjamas and I slipped," she said.
"I bounced down and had bruises from my bum down to my ankle. It was really painful and unattractive."
While Christina favours comfort when she's at home, she admitted to recently splashing out on an extravagant Alexander McQueen cape.
"I treated myself to an Alexander McQueen cape recently. I went into the shop intending to court a pair of pants but I walked out with something way more extravagant. I wear it pretty much every day."
The 37-year-old actress is famous for her red hair but when she started her career she was advised not to dye her naturally blonde locks.
"When I first started modelling I was blonde. Then I got a job and they wanted to do my hair bright red.
"I'd always wanted to, but the head of my agency was like, 'You look terrible, it's so ugly, you cannot have red hair'.
"I came back as a readhead and couldn't get my hair back to blonde for two days - in the meantime I had to audition.
"I booked two or three jobs, because were a lot fewer redheads than blondes, and I was like, this is working for me, I'm keeping this."

MOBILE, Ala. -- Gov. Bob Riley appointed Mobile-area scientist Bob Shipp, who was critical of oil dispersants at the Deepwater Horizon well, to the state's Conservation and Natural Resources Advisory Board.
Earlier this week, Shipp, of the University of South Alabama, said he felt ignored when he expressed concerns about more than 655,000 gallons of dispersant chemicals used almost every day since the rig exploded April 20.
Riley said at a news conference this afternoon that he wanted more expertise among the state's conservationists about chemicals being used on the massive oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico. The board helps the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources create policies.
"We hear one day that dispersants are bad, the next day we hear that they may not be bad," Riley said. "We've got to make some very, very critical decisions and that is a great example of what we're going to recommend. ... What we want to do is get someone in this position who can give us scientifically based advice that we can depend on."

Giovanni Antonini talks knowledgeably about jazz greats like Charlie Parker and Steve Lacy, improvises on a pencil-thin wooden instrument that resembles a child's recorder and leads a Grammy-winning band that has toured to five continents. But don't expect any blue notes to sound when his group, Il Giardino Armonico, comes to Tulane University on Monday, Feb. 28.
Instead, Antonini's ensemble will dip into the archives for a program of 17th- and 18th-century music by Vivaldi and other Venetian composers.
Il Giardino Armonico can field up to 25 instrumentalists, but will perform as an octet at Dixon Hall, using a mix of antique and reproduction instruments: two violins, viola, cello, bass, lute, harpsichord and flute. (For details and tickets to the 8 p.m. show, go to the Friends of Music website or call 504.895.0690).
"This music was written for performers who knew how to improvise," Antonini said. "You can't get to its essence simply by using period instruments, by re-tuning, or using gut strings, or deciding to play with less vibrato. It takes an act of imagination because the scores leave so many choices open to the players."
By Antonini's estimate, baroque scores include only about 60 percent of the information needed for a performance. Tempos, dynamics, bowing and other details are generally unspecified. Soloists are often asked to perform improvised cadenzas. Supporting players can push the music in fresh directions, too, by adding their own harmonic choices to the music's foundations, an ongoing musical commentary akin to the "comping" of jazz pianists.
"The performer is more important than the composer in baroque music," Antonini said. "In that way, I think it's very similar to jazz. There is a hidden code that the performer must discover to give back the true quality of the music."
Antonini helped to found Il Giardino Armonico in 1985 — a time when such period bands were still viewed as a scholarly sidelight by many in the classical music establishment.
Times have changed, however.
Il Giardino Armonico launched its current U.S. tour at Carnegie Hall. The group landed a 2011 Grammy Award for a collaboration with Cecilia Bartoli — a bankable, "mainstream" opera star with a passion for early music. This winter also saw the release of Il Giardino's splendid recording of a long-lost Vivaldi opera, "Ottone in villa," from Naive records. That visionary, Paris-based company has recruited top period bands from Spain, Germany, France and Italy in a critically praised effort to record 450 neglected Vivaldi manuscripts that survived in an Italian archive.
"Incredible discoveries are being made by early music performers," Antonini said. "Listeners are in for some big surprises if they only know Vivaldi through some old recording of 'The Four Seasons.'"
The earliest pieces in the Tulane show were written by Dario Castello before 1650. The newest works, written by Baldassare Galuppi, date from the late 18th century. The show also features compositions by Tarquinio Merula, Giovanni Legrenzi and three Vivaldi concertos.
"With Castello, you get to hear a composer come to grips with the violin. It was still a new instrument then — one mostly associated with popular dance music," Antonini said.
Castello and his successors began to write violin music that used the human voice as a model. They pushed a virtuoso instrument to new extremes, establishing its long ascendancy in the concert hall. By the next century, things had gone so far that Vivaldi would find his operas being criticized for forcing singers to negotiate fast, complex, arpeggioed passages — in effect, to behave like violins.
Opera also provided an organizing model for many instrumental scores in an era when large-scale musical forms were not yet well-established, Antonini said. The Tulane program provides a digest of the baroque style: small contrasting sections, sudden mood shifts, dramatic musical gestures, and a desire to evoke character in an almost-theatrical manner.
"Baroque music celebrates disorder and surprise and startling the audience with novel effects," Antonini said. "It's a philosophy of the moment, a spontaneous discipline, a way of creating and living in the moment. It helps us avoid the greatest peril for classical musicians, which is simply repeating ourselves, being content with a very high level routine. That's the death of art. We struggle against it at every concert."

The committee also directed Superintendent Russell Mayo to restore 14 full-day kindergarten classes next year -- one for each elementary school building -- something that he had proposed be eliminated to save costs.
In light of long-range projections that predict a $17.4 million budget gap by 2017, and a fund balance $40 million in the red by that year, several board members said the cuts Mayo proposed in the $234.9 million budget do not go far enough.
"We're like an airship going down, and we need to start throwing everything out that we can to survive," said board member Scott Armstrong. "Just looking at these numbers, that tells the story."The full board will vote on a preliminary final budget next Thursday. But Trevor Jackson, the district's chief financial officer, stressed the final budget is not set in stone until June 28 and is subject to change until then.
By shrinking the tax increase and restoring the full-day kindergarten classes, the budget deficit will increase from $3.4 million to $4.1 million, Jackson said.
The district originally expected to plug the $3.4 million gap with its fund balance. It will not have to dig deeper into that fund balance or seek further savings elsewhere in the budget.
But that deficit assumes the state will restore a $1.5 million grant that was originally expected to be eliminated. Jackson said it remains unclear whether that grant will be restored, and whether the state will restore even more revenue or keep it level.
It was Board President Robert Smith Jr. who proposed the budget amendments that reduced the tax hike and restore the full-day kindergarten classes after a lengthy discussion by the board committee.
"If we do not act, I believe we are not fulfilling our duties as board members," Smith said.
As the committee discussed the budget, the members also discussed a five-year projection that finds district revenues could rise by $45.29 million between fiscal years 2013 and 2017, while revenues may only rise by $31.29 million in that time.
Board member David F. Zimmerman said if Mayo cannot identify further cuts before the final budget is passed next year, the district may be forced to make even more painful changes next year, on par with those implemented last year.
"It's a no-win situation," Zimmerman said. "Either we make drastic cuts now, or when we look at next year, we'll have to look at another redesign of the curriculum to change things around, like we did last year."Debra Tretter, president of the Allentown Education Association teachers union, said the district cannot continue to put their financial burdens "on the backs of the teachers."
"You can't keep cutting the people who do the work of the school district; that's all there is to it," she said. "They have to explore other areas that don't have to do with the teaching and learning of the kids."Last year, facing a $27 million budget gap, the district cut 204 teaching positions and seven administrative jobs, resulting in 112 furloughed teachers. Elementary school libraries and programs like art, music and physical education were particularly hard hit.
This year's budget -- a final version of which will not be passed until June 28 -- eliminates 38 positions, including 18 teachers, but all are through attrition. Mayo has said there will be no layoffs this year.
But some board members said not cutting deeper is unrealistic, especially because the five-year projections predict the district's fund balance could drop from its current $20 million to negative-$6.5 million by fiscal year 2015.
And that already assumes the district continues to raise taxes about 4 percent every year, Zimmerman said.
"It seems to me 2015 is the year of real reckoning," he said. "How are we going to operate with a negative fund balance of $7 million? What are we going to do then if we continue business as usual the way we are?"Mayo has preciously announced several cuts and savings in the current budget proposal, including $1 million in special education cost savings, a $1 million reduction in funds for future roofing projects, and $250,000 from an administrative staffing reorganization.

Week four of "Dancing with the Stars" brought about a first for the show, in the form of four new dances. Two I knew, the country two-step and the Charleston, and two I didn't know, the bolero and the lambada. I'm not sure I still understand what the bolero is, as it just seemed like a rumba to me, plus none of the men wore those hats with the little balls hanging off of them, which I thought was the "bolero uniform." And my non-"Lambada" watching self would come as a surprise, from a person who up until this weekend has never seen "Dirty Dancing" (though I have to admit, that sweatiness, as Patrick Swayze was throughout the movie, must be "hereditary" for people born on August 18), even to me. So how did the remaining 11 couples perform doing these new dances, some never danced by the professionals before? Here's a rundown, dancer by dancer, in order of appearance (with judge's scores for each dance in parenthesis):
Chuck Liddell & Anna Trebunskaya (17): This was the first in a series of the "guy walks around while his partner keeps on twirling (and twirling… and twirling)" dances of the night, and was pretty disappointing. You'd think that the country two-step would be a dance that Chuck would be able to adequately perform, and I'm not sure if it was just the so-so choreography or Chuck, but this dance failed to impress. If it wasn't for his personality (which belies his hulking look), Chuck would probably have been asked to exit the rectagon by now. Melissa Joan Hart & Mark Ballas (28): Wow, what a difference for the usually robotic Melissa. I've been looking for Sabrina to "disappear" since week one, but with this performance, I've been proven wrong. Dancing the Charleston, Melissa finally let go of whatever insecurities were holding her back, and combined with the always-stellar choreography of Mark, Melissa proved to be the bee's knees. The only question left is will she be able to build upon this "10" (from Bruno), or just fall back into the pack again?
Natalie Coughlin & Alec Mazo (24): The couple's bolero, after the peak of their rumba last week, was a disappointment. Natalie looked great (and would've picked up the coveted "Best Dressed award, if she didn't wear the EXACT SAME THING last week), and Alec's choreography was top-notch, but the couple brought very little heat to the dancefloor, with Natalie on the fence during rehearsals about the difficulty of the routine. Adequate enough to make it through until next week, but this seems like a couple that keeps drifting back and forth over the superior/average line. Aaron Carter & Karina Smirnoff (18): I'm starting to feel a little bad for Aaron, who has gone from the top of the leader board all the way down to the possibility of being voted out. This couple has slipped each week, and the first lambada of the night was forbidden, but in a bad way. After hugging it out with Michael Irvin after last week's post-dance breakdown, Aaron looked primed for a comeback, so it will be interesting to see if his confidence now is so shot that he stumbles even farther next week.
Mark Dacascos & Lacey Schwimmer (22): Just like I hope that Lacey will post to my Facebook page how much she enjoys my blog (or my photos, of me), I hope that Mark really begins to improve quickly enough to keep the couple around for a few more weeks. I still believe that Mark has what it takes to make it to the final three, but his two-step was only adequate (however, Lacey, as always, killed). Mark threw in a few tricks, and his dance was much better than Chuck's earlier rendition, but this couple has yet to have the "wow" breakthrough dance. Kelly Osbourne & Louis van Amstel (23): Kelly continues to build up confidence, as evidenced by the couple's "Cabaret"-inspired Charleston, but every time I watch her I worry that one little mistake is going to throw off her performance. I have to believe that Kelly is a top-vote getter, so even with a couple of low scores, she'll be safe for awhile. Kelly needs to heed the advice of the Master of Ceremonies from "Cabaret" (a movie I actually have seen): "Leave your troubles outside! Life is disappointing? Forget it!"
Joanna Krupa & Derek Hough (26): Now I know what I'm missing! If "Lambada" or "The Forbidden Dance" is anything like this couple's lambada, I have been missing something my whole life! Dancing a dance not suitable for children's eyes, and not only because Derek was sans-shirt, this fortunately, has already been deemed the Results Show's encore performance by Len. This time, maybe I can keep my eyeballs in my head (and Derek can hold the final pose, instead of prematurely releasing Joanna). Donny Osmond & Kym Johnson (24): Dancing a dance made for an entertainer, Donny performed the Charleston, but didn't reach the heights that Melissa hit earlier. Thus, the couple's Charleston was kind of a disappointment. Donny will be safe once again, but right now, he's seems to have hit a plateau.
Michael Irvin & Anna Demidova (16): Part two of the three-part "watch me stand while you dance" series was evident in the couple's bolero. With low score after low score, there is no doubt that the red light will shine bright on Michael and Anna (who probably won't be asked back for the next cycle of "Dancing" due to her sub-par choreography) tonight. On the "plus" side, Michael picks up the "Worst Dressed" award for his pleather shirt. Louie Vito & Chelsie Hightower (16): This couple concluded that three-part series with their two-step, and I fear that this cute couple will find themselves under the red light tonight. It was a boring dance, and Louie's non-movement was only amplified by the constantly spinning Chelsie.
Mya & Dmitry Chaplin (28): The best dance of the night, the couple's less-sexed-up-than-Derek-and-Joanna's lambada was sophisticated and technically sound. Doing Melissa one better, the couple scored two "10's" with Len, who was hoping he was "going to get a bit more" from them, scoring them two points lower than the other judges (which seems to be his m.o. with this couple). Unfortunately, Mya goes on to share that "Worst Dressed" award with Michael, for matching her makeup to her very colorful dress. And I mean matching it, like pattern-for-pattern. So, with both Michael and Louie being the predicted bottom two tonight, I have to believe that it is Michael & Anna's turn to take that last dance. The couple has performed below average week-after-week, and although Michael's personality might be missed, his poor dancing definitely will not. I broke my 11 votes up tonight with five going to Mark & Lacey for the men's side, five going to Joanna & Derek for the women's side, with my wild card going out to the Liza & Joel. I mean Kelly & Louis. And I'm sure you're asking yourself "who picked up that 'Best Dressed' award tonight?" None other than my usual fashion punching bag Samantha Harris, who rocked a gorgeous Midnight Blue frock, complete with boobage and some feathered hair. Well done Samantha! Well done!

Louisville, Ky. -- Having just led his outfit to a win over a Top 15 foe, his school's first such thing since 2002 (or when he was 12), Ryan Nassib was asked about lessons learned. And as he stood in a storage-room area of the Carrier Dome eight evenings ago, the kid pondered not at all.
"Now," said Nassib, the Syracuse University quarterback, "we know what we can do."
The SU club, sort of channeling Don Larsen, had very nearly tossed a perfect game at West Virginia, dominating the 11th-ranked Mountaineers on offense, defense and special teams in its eventual 49-23 fanny-kicking. More than mere clarity, the triumph had provided Nassib and his mates -- heretofore, an inconsisent bunch prone to close calls and unnecessary drama -- with an unfettered view of a campaign's possibilities.
But the victory had produced this other bit of fruit, too: Doug Marrone, the Syracuse head coach who'd wanted "the people in this community to walk out of that stadium for a night and feel good about themselves," had been satisfied. This, because the bulk of those 45,265 in attendance had, in fact, left the Dome like so many 100-watt bulbs. That is, beaming.
The Orange was 5-2. The Orange had won for the 13th time in 20 starts. The Orange had made its loudest statement in . . . what? A decade? The Orange, in other words, was relevant again.
Which according to Marrone is all fine and dandy, but . . .
"I'm totally focused on just Louisville," said the big man who'll forever fret the frame more than he'll appreciate the portrait. "Whatever happens. The cards go and the chips fall. I know people have to write stories and do those other things, but my job is to get this team focused on a team that we've never beaten. And that creates greater challenges for us than maybe we've seen all year."
In other words, Nassib was right. Now that SU knows what it can do, it has to do it. Again. And again. And again.
Which brings us to this afternoon's affair here at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium where Marrone's boys will take on Louisville -- a young-younger-youngest group that is 3-4 and starts six true freshmen and two more of the red-shirt variety -- in what amounts to a near-elimination game for the loser.
No, dropping to 1-2 in the middling Big East Conference with four league dates remaining wouldn't amount to a trip to the bottom of the football sea for either side, but it would move the Orange or the Cardinals closer to the BBVA Compass Bowl (whatever that is and wherever it is played) than the BCS. And so, this scrum does have its intrigue.
Importantly, for Syracuse, the contest amounts to an opportunity even greater than the official bowl eligibility that would be attained with success.
The truth of the matter is that Louisville, despite its gaudy defensive resume that has been built at the considerable expense of such relative bonbons as Murray State, is like every other Big East collection -- eminently conquerable, as Florida International and Marshall (not to mention North Carolina and Cincinnati) have demonstrated.
The Cardinals have manufactured only 33 second-half points all season, or 4.7 per game after intermission. They are 114th in the country (out of 120) in scoring, 100th in total offense, 93rd in rushing and 83rd in passing. They've tried eight different guys along the offensive line and two at quarterback, including Teddy Bridgewater, today's starter who was in high school at this time last October.
So, these folks, who've committed 24 more penalties than their opponents to thus sit at No. 118 in that dubious national category, do not a fortress make. Not this season, anyway.
The Orange, then, would be well advised to pounce. Or, anyway, to heed its bellwether, Chandler Jones, the junior defensive end who returned to the Syracuse lineup against West Virginia like a rock through a window with six solo tackles (including two sacks) and a batted-down pass.
"I just tried to do anything I could do to help," explained Jones, who'd missed SU's previous five tilts with a "lower-body injury," so mysteriously deemed by the ever-artful Marrone. "I just try to execute. The coaches tell me to jump; I say, 'How high?' I do what the coaches tell me to do."
They'll likely tell young Chandler to reflect upon his smashing work against the Mountaineers, and then rinse and repeat. And they'll hope that his buddies -- on defense, yes, but also on offense and special teams -- follow suit.
After all, having waxed West Virginia eight evenings ago, the Orange now knows what it can do. Beginning this afternoon, the idea is to belly once more up to that bar, not limbo under it.
The kickoff awaits. Opportunity, too.

Fire District benefit charge to be decided Nov. 19
On Tuesday, Nov. 19, Woodinville Fire & Life Safety District (WFLSD) will establish the district's benefit charge to be levied on all owners of real property within the district's 36-square-mile boundary. The meeting is open to the public and will be held at 7 p.m. at the downtown fire station, 17718 Woodinville-Snohomish Road NE.
The benefit charge, though not classified as a "property tax," appears on annual property tax bills.
When voter initiatives capped the amount the fire district could collect via property taxes, WFLSD realized it wouldn't be getting enough money to run operations.
A measure granting the fire district permission to collect a benefit charge was passed in the April 24, 2001, Special Election.
According to WFLSD Fire Chief Steve Smith, the benefit charge, in addition to money received from regular tax rolls, covers expenses.
The district intended to decide the benefit charge at its Nov. 4 meeting, but Chief Smith said they had not yet received the 2003 assessed property valuations needed to calculate the fee.

Something I've noticedComing from a government background...
The scariest thing to an gov employee is public oversight. As soon as you add oversight then there is no room for error...or bribes in some cases. There are only a few good reasons that the public should not know about the governments dealings.
1. When public disclosure endangers lives of operatives.
2. When public disclosure truly weakens national security.
3. When public disclosure impedes on the rights of citizens.
There are laws in place for these exceptions...everything else is just a pain in the public ass.

Re: Something I've noticedI'm interested in an example of public disclosure that impedes the rights of citizens?
As to the other two, I can buy into the operative thing. But I have never been able to agree with point two.
If something is a matter of national security, shouldn't the populace be aware of the threat and/or what is being done? I suppose the only reason to agree with point two is to avoid or minimize paranoia. Then again, if flight schools knew in advance that terrorists were considering slamming planes into buildings, they may have paid closer attention to their students.

At least it has stayed sort of secret hereAt least here people had to go through due process and work out what has happened.
In the UK if a court order keeps something secret the papers just run the story without the identifying facts and say a court is banning them printing them making a farce of the whole process.

What if publicizing a secret exposes a technique you used to elicit an opponent's secrets? Perhaps a source he didn't know you had? Or a hole in his security you were actively taking advantage of? If that exposure caused that opponent to close that hole, or eliminate that source, that could "endanger national security", couldn't it? If what we were watching was potentially dangerous, like Iran enriching uranium... or terrorists making bombs...
I could think of lots of reasons that publicizing a piece of information could do harm to our very secret efforts to keep an eye on those that dislike us or actively plan things to hurt us or attack us.
As for number one, if one has a surveillance effort, and you have been watching certain citizens that are alleged to be involved in treasonous activities, you wouldn't want ALL of that surveillance information to be publicized - much of it would be irrelevant to your investigation (probably hours and hours of it), and there would be nuggets of very private information that could harm that person if exposed, such as banking information, or perhaps information that he/she was involved in an affair - that could even harm a third party.
Use your imagination - Ann Landers would tell you that whatever you can imagine couldn't possibly be as interesting or likely as what people really are doing!!

Personally, 90% of the time these are not even good enough reasons to hide policy from the American people (in my opinion).

Re: Re: Something I've noticedHow about the right to a private life?
Or their right to a life at all?
Or their pursuit of happiness?
Of course you only have those rights so long as they don't infringe on someone else's rights. Which makes the whole self defense killing thing more than just a moral argument.

Bringing it all in@#3 The Privacy Act of 1972 is the major law that is used to justify personal info being withheld...think of what can be done with your personal info, all of it
@#6 These are 90% of the legitimate reasons that can be used. If the office has the ability to classify data...they can just throw a sticker on it and BAM! Request can be out and out denied...or filled whilst utilizing the magic of black sharpie! Policy can rarely be blocked this way...just day to day procedure. Actual Policies are not easy to block in a FOIA.
@#10 This is occasionally problematic. The is why, for the most part, Freedom of Information Act requests are processed by multiple people. If the FOIA rep does have traces of megalomania running through him/her...Then try again one office above him.
There are good reasons that these laws are in place. These are some of the few laws that can be EASILY justified as actually for the public good.
I wish more Americans would use FOIA requests to LEARN THINGS. Like how their gov't operates and possibly to through a tad bit of oversight into the process.
I don't know...maybe I just spent too much time seeing shady shit done in the name of the greater good...

Taiwan News, Staff Writer
President Ma Ying-jeouŌĆÖs insistence on allowing the import of beef from the United States containing residues of the lean-meat drug ractopamine immediately after his re-election in early 2012 set off months of political confrontation.
The MOEA move would also affect other Canadian meat products from cattle under 30 months of age and would go into effect after the completion of administrative procedures. In practice, the ban might be lifted in mid-February, after the Lunar New Year holiday, reports said.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the same strict border controls would be in force for the Canadian imports as for the US beef, and that the agreement to open up borders also included a clause allowing Taiwan to send inspectors to beef suppliers in Canada for checks. Packages coming into Taiwan might be opened for random inspections with samples sent to laboratories, while local health authorities could investigate restaurants.
The accord also covered frozen and fresh lips, ears, tails and other parts of beef, but for some an import permit would have to be applied for. As some of those parts from the US were still banned, the new deal with Canada would also be extended to similar beef products from the US, reports said. Eyes, brains and innards would still remain blacklisted for both North American countries.
As soon as a new case of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) or mad cow disease was reported in Canada, its government should notify Taiwan, which then could consider slapping a ban on the import of Canadian beef by executive order, the Food and Drugs Administration said.
Canada registered 18 cases of BSE between April 2003 and February 2011, but the situation was now deemed to be under control. The list of 57 countries which allowed the import of Canadian beef also included South Korea, reports said. Doctors said that because the BSE cases were so recent, it was still too risky to consume the imported beef parts from Canada, but the health authorities rejected the risk.
Economics Minister Chang Chia-juch said that since the agreement with the US to import its beef products, pressure from Canada had increased by a significant margin. Since the country was a member of the TPP, TaiwanŌĆÖs move showed it was serious about joining the trade association, Chang said.
Economics Vice Minister Francis Liang described 2014 as a key year for regional economic integration. Every single move by Taiwan would decide whether the country was allowed to play in the competition to attract foreign trade and investment. He predicted that Taiwan and Canada would soon sign a double taxation avoidance agreement.
Boneless beef from cattle under 30 months of age has been legally imported from Canada since 2007.
According to official data, 46.09 percent of beef on the Taiwanese market is imported from Australia, 24.76 percent from the US and 23.23 percent from New Zealand. Only 6 percent is provided by domestic cattle farmers.
Government representatives also visited the Legislative Yuan Friday morning to explain the latest changes.
The latest move met with disapproval from consumersŌĆÖ rights activists. The government was using the publicŌĆÖs health as a playing card in a game of international trade, the Homemakers United Foundation said. The group questioned the sudden decision by the government and its ability to conduct thorough tests to prevent problematic meat from entering the country.

The Chicago Sun-Times takes a dump on Toronto
It's tough growing up, especially when the big kids get jealous they're no longer in charge. With that in mind, Neil Steinberg at the Chicago Sun-Times took the news that Toronto recently surpassed the windy city's population (therefore calling into question his city's very soul) particularly badly yesterday evening.
Chief among Steinberg's gripes is that everyone north of the border seems to understand that Chicago actually has a more populated metro area and if it weren't for amalgamation we would be nowhere close to competing in terms of numbers. Toronto just isn't bellowing at other cities often enough, he scolds.
Steinberg goes on to knock our "donuts" (whoa, easy) and our skyline, whose "only noteworthy element is a TV antenna." Also in the crosshairs are the city's monument to multiculturalism outside Union Station (he can't believe it!) and our insecurity about whether we're "world class" (ok, so maybe that one's accurate.)
"Let us know when you can make a decent pizza, or build a building that bears a second glance. Or when somebody writes a song about Toronto. Or shoots a movie in Toronto that actually takes place in Toronto. We'll be here, waiting, humming 'Chicago.'," he finishes.
Ouch. Can't we just be friends? We could, of course, mention Chicago's crime rate, the Cubs' World Series drought (longer than the Leafs!), or the bland Midwestern attitude that so many Chicagoans sport, but why engage in such hostility?
We're not the ones suffering from envy — for once.

Hasn't he seen 'Videodrome'?
I guess they are cooler because they have Bat Man (Gotham City is based on Chicago).
A great place to get murdered.
At least like Toronto, the Chicago media know an ass of a mayor when they see one:
"If I was the 500th important person in Chicago that would probably make me the 473rd fattest person in the United States. You can definitely have your Largest City title all you want.
....Oh by the way, I think the most famous thing about your Skyline was the fact that it was featured in the tv show Family Matters. Oops. Did I do that?"
Let's have a toast for the douchebags,
Let's have a toast for the assholes,
Let's have a toast for the scumbags,
Every one of them that I know
Let's have a toast for the jerkoffs
That'll never take work off
Baby, I got a plan
Run away fast as you can from all the haters.
Mr. Steinberg, stop taking cheap shots and write a substantial article that we Torontonians can give a fuck about. =)
We drove through the downtown core of Chicago and actually feared for our lives. We couldn't leave fast enough.
A safe place to walk ALONE gives Toronto superiority over that cesspool.
And to respond to ZKTXO, we ate deep dish pizza growing up on the southwest side of the city, and we loved it. It's definitely celebrated by Chicagoans. But we like thin crust too.
But they say you've got to live there for a while
And if you got the money you can get yourself a honey
With a written guarantee ta make you smile

Read the rebuttal "Dear Chicago" on Canada.com.
Wow. At this rate I am SURE he will win some award in journalism...
Your food stamp economy in America has gone to shit.
Enjoy your lack of health care and your 3rd world status, America.
Watch out for the syringes on the sidewalk on your way out.
Like I said most of you b#llshitters who say it's just like Toronto, I propose we drop you off in the core and see if you make it out without being mugged,raped,or killed. We could film it for posterity or an interesting reality show.
This was obviously a HUMOUR piece! The fact that no one seems to be able to see past their rose-coloured glasses is actually quite sad, wishing people get murdered and the like... Disgusting.
Give your heads a shake and read the article again. After about two paragraphs it is blatantly obvious. If you've reached the comment about the "TV Antenna" and still don't see it... well, don't think there's much one can do at that point.
don't think there's much one can do "TO HELP YOU" at that point.
NY, LA - for years we've said "get over yourselves!" We'll add Toronto to the list.
And we don't love the Cubbies because they win. We love them because they are the Cubbies. It's Harry Carry singing at Wigley Field. It's Chicago man, and if you don't understand that's cool and I don't expect to you to get it.
And we care why? Oh right, we don't.
If you know what Chicagoland is, you'll know why this is very funny.
Chicago didn't publicize this story. Toronto papers actually asked the mayor of Chicago to comment on the new population difference.
They asked the mayor for comments! Srsly people, get over yourself.
Have we lost the ability to laugh at ourselves?
And for the record, Chicago's downtown architecture is vastly superior to ours. How many Toronto buildings would you classify as beautiful or unique?
Here are the actual stats. If you look up the homicides for Chicago last year, yeah, there are 500 of them. Exactly zero of those happened in the loop. Same story the year before that. Meanwhile, Toronto has had a pretty high number of shootings in its most central and public places. (Eaton Centre, Yonge St, nightlife areas around the downtown, even offices, etc). So like I said, it's all almost extremes. Chicago's unsafe, bad areas are much more unsafe and much more run down than their peers in Toronto. But their downtown is much prettier, much more beautifully designed and actually safer than downtown Toronto. Toronto is just a more balanced place with fewer good and bad extremes (which is rather like Canada vs the US in general).
As satirical put-downs of entire cities go, this is a lot better:
In Toronto, violent crime is random. A stabbing at Yonge/Eg, shootings in the Eaton Centre, the usual stuff in pockets of Etobicoke and Scarborough... In Chicago, violent crime is not random. It is significantly gang and drug related. Not significantly, actually, overwhelmingly.
In any case, I had a feeling of satire when I read this article. Maybe we're taking it too close to heart, and maybe this is all just a joke?
Then there's TV, theatre etc. but who knows? One day, Chicago may pretend to be Toronto on film/TV or mount a musical named 'Toronto'. Maybe there will be a 'Toronto-style' something available in Chicago.. or even, for that matter, in Toronto!
One thing that Toronto definately lacks is the ability to laugh at itself. Massive inferiority complex/insecurity leads to a pathetic longing for attention from the U.S. and an equally pathetic backlash when that attention isn't 100% full of gushing praise.

nuff said!
Come and show me another city with lifted head singing so proud to be alive and coarse and strong and cunning."
People, it's a joke. I can't believe people are actually getting insulted. The column is a joke playing on Chicago's reputation of being a gritty brawler. Like in Carl Sandberg's poem.
Carl Sandberg's famous poem "Chicago:"
"Hog Butcher for the World,
Tool Maker, Stacker of Wheat,
Player with Railroads and the Nation's Freight Handler;
Stormy, husky, brawling,
City of the Big Shoulders:
They tell me you are wicked and I believe them, for I have seen your painted women under the gas lamps luring the farm boys.
And they tell me you are crooked and I answer: Yes, it is true I have seen the gunman kill and go free to kill again.
And they tell me you are brutal and my reply is: On the faces of women and children I have seen the marks of wanton hunger.
And having answered so I turn once more to those who sneer at this my city, and I give them back the sneer and say to them:
Come and show me another city with lifted head singing so proud to be alive and coarse and strong and cunning.
Flinging magnetic curses amid the toil of piling job on job, here is a tall bold slugger set vivid against the little soft cities;
Fierce as a dog with tongue lapping for action, cunning as a savage pitted against the wilderness,
Building, breaking, rebuilding,
Under the smoke, dust all over his mouth, laughing with white teeth,
Under the terrible burden of destiny laughing as a young man laughs,
Laughing even as an ignorant fighter laughs who has never lost a battle,
Bragging and laughing that under his wrist is the pulse, and under his ribs the heart of the people, Laughing!
Laughing the stormy, husky, brawling laughter of Youth, half-naked, sweating, proud to be Hog Butcher, Tool Maker, Stacker of Wheat, Player with Railroads and Freight Handler to the Nation."
Just make sure none of the idiot whiner lefties like Adam Vaughan tag along because granola ain't allowed suckers!
We are better at a lot of things than other cities but still, there is much we can improve upon.
Sorry, but no. Until Harbourfront gets a "bean", or a lawn, this one is not even close.
Argos > Bears
Can't disagree, Grey Cup champions that they are.
Raptors > Bulls
Seriously, no. Not even in the same ballpark, barely in the same galaxy. Even if you counted seasons over .500, even if you counted playoff appearances, not even close.
Ontario Place > Navy Pier
You know Ontario Place is closed now, right? I'd give Navy Pier this for the statue of Bob Newhart alone.
Drake > Kanye West
Maestro > Common
Whatever. Do you honestly think Toronto has in any way anything compared to Chicago's blues and jazz community?
Jays > Cubs/White Sox combined
Unless you are counting non-important stuff like recent playoff appearances, or even more non-important stuff like recent World Series wins, this is another, "not even close" comparison.
Leafs > Blackhawks
See above, times about a million.
CN Tower > Sears Tower
Willis Tower, actually. Costs 18 bucks. CN tower: almost $40. Plus they also have the John Hancock Center.
Again, no comparison.
I bring this up in reference to the Sun author's boasting about total population sizes, and the fact that the amalgamated city of Toronto (630 sq km) is comparable in area to Chicago city proper (606 sq km).
America has only three cities: New York, San Francisco and NEW ORLEANS. Everywhere else is Cleveland.
Tennessee Williams
Overpopulation and overcrowding are hallmarks of third world countries.
As far as lifestyle, quality of infrastructure, personal debt, affordable housing, poverty, living space per person, etc. Toronto is becoming more like Mumbai with each passing year.
Toronto = no identity, an exploited and neglected DUMP
I have absolutely no knowledge of coding however I had been hoping
to start my own blog soon. Anyways, if you have any ideas or techniques for new blog owners please share.
I understand this is off topic nevertheless I just wanted to ask.
Many thanks!
That said, I have always found Chicago even more boring than Toronto. The architecture is overrated, the skyline is tedious, the people have ATROCIOUS accents, its history of political corruption puts New York and Montreal to shame, its violence is shameful. They do, however, have much better museums, but can't hold a candle in that regard to London or New York.
BTW, did you know that the U.S. midwest has an inferiority complex, vs. New York and LA, similar to Canada's vis a vis the U.S.?
What I find utterly ironic (in the colloquial sense) is that the sheet-metal clad Sun-Times building out of which this clot writes is the ugliest building I have ever seen in any city, anywhere!
myself, just visit this web site all the time as it
presents quality contents, thanks
Otherwise Chicago is amazing!!!

FLINT, MI -- After a Detroit Water and Sewerage Department union official told the Detroit Free Press last week that he thought Barnett Jones should lose his Detroit job, several readers are diverting blame from Flint's former public safety administrator for keeping his positions in both Flint and Detroit.
Jones was paid $135,000 per year in Flint, and another $138,750 in Detroit as chief security and integrity officer for the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department.
After Jones resigned his position in Flint, Michael Mulholland, vice president of AFSCME Local 207, told the Free Press, "When he was hired in, they changed the name to the department of security and integrity because they wanted to set a new tone. If that irony alone isn't enough to fire him, I don't know what is."
Jones' contract in Flint did not stop him from having a second job, or make him disclose that he had the Detroit position, and Detroit officials said Jones would keep his job there.
Several MLive commenters point out other issues surrounding the position:
Ted Jankowski calls the position a distraction from the main problem in Flint:
The fact this guy has two payoff positions isn't the issue. This guy was hired as more smoke and mirrors. It was an attempt to appease the citizens of Flint that the powers that be are attempting to do something about crime. When We already know the main problem in Flint is not enough jail space and putting criminals right back out on the street.
burtonguy points out the satisfaction in Jones' job performance:
Jones has a very long history of people being very happy with his work. This seems like a witch hunt against Jones. It seems like the complaint, if there is one, should be with the people who had oversight of him.
biggie9 questions the decisions of the Detroit Water and Sewerage officials:
If they [Detroit Water officials] cannot understand why it is a bad practice to have a leader with split and possibly conflicting interests, then they should not be hiring people, much less running something as important as the water & sewage affecting millions of people in SE Michigan.
And acrosstheoceannow reminds readers where the Flint portion of Jones' paychecks came from:
This is wrong on so many levels. His salary came from the Mott Foundation. We should be very protective of this funding.

HANCOCK - Warming up for its Wing Ding meeting with Houghton later this week, the Hancock High hockey team put together a businesslike showing against Negaunee Monday night at the Houghton County Arena.
The 4-0 HCHS victory came against a goaltender, Anthony Moyle, who was on his game.
"I thought he (Moyle) played really well," Bulldogs coach Dan Rouleau said. "He's a darn good goalie. He squares up to the puck really well ... and does a nice job with traffic in front of him."
Senior forward Brett Lepisto continued his recent scoring streak with a pair of goals for the Crimson and Gold. But junior linemate Hunter Kero aided him ably by picking up four assists.
"Brett Lepisto has been on a nice run and he did a good job again tonight," Rouleau commented. "And Hunter (Kero) did some good work to set up our scoring."
The Great Lakes Hockey Conference game started off slowly as the Bulldogs spent much of the opening period killing off five penalties.
Fact Box
Negaunee 0 0 0 - 0
Hancock 1 1 2 - 4
First period - 1, HA - Brett Lepisto (Hunter Kero) 4:55 (SH).
Second period - 2, HA - Cory Tourtilott (Kero, Wade Hanke) 13:03.
Third period - 3, HA - Lepisto (Kero) 6:41; 4, HA - Zach Ahola (Kero, Jack Fenton) 8:51 (PP).
Goalie saves - NEG, Moyle 37 (14-14-13); HAN, Givens 13 (4-5-4).
In fact, the locals were killing off a penalty when Kero stole a Miners pass and fed Lepisto for a shorthanded marker at the 4:55 mark.
NHS coach Darrel Sleeman felt the physicality of the Bulldogs played a big role in the contest.
"They (Bulldogs) are a big, strong hockey team," he said. "They kind of outmuscled us at times."
The work of Moyle, who made 37 saves in all, kept the visitors in the game before Cory Tourtillott connected at 13:03 of the second period for a 2-0 reading.
And when Lepisto sent home a nice wrist shot a few minutes later to make it 3-0, the 'Dawgs were in good shape.
Negaunee had a couple of decent scoring chances in the final period, but Hancock netminder Jacob Givens was up to the task. Givens had a quiet night with 13 stops.
Junior Zach Ahola removed any lingering doubts about the outcome not long afterward when he fired a shot past Moyle with his team on a power play.
Now 10-6-3 on the season (4-2-2 GLHC), the Bulldogs will meet Houghton on Wednesday.
Rouleau said his team has its sights on the upcoming playoffs.
"It's not far off (three weeks) and you want to be playing your best hockey at this time of the season," he said. "But we're hoping to get some more production out of our chances."
Sleeman, whose team dropped to 5-15 on the season, said scoring goals has been a problem.
"We're having trouble scoring, but our goaltending has been pretty strong," the NHS skipper said. "If you have that, you always have a shot."

The Palestinian President has asked the United Nations Secretary General for Palestine to be accepted as a member state.
After months of speculation, Mahmoud Abbas officially submitted a bid for full membership at the United Nations.
The US and Israel have already made their opposition to the unilateral move clear
According to Ynet, before the speech Mr Abbas said his "final answer" was that the Palestinians "shall not recognise a Jewish state".
The president of the World Jewish Congress today called for the UN not to endorse the statehood bid because it would deal a fatal blow to the peace process.
Ronald Lauder said: "As many world leaders have told us over the past few weeks, negotiations with Israel are the only viable way for the Palestinians to reach statehood.
"The fact that he is now turning to the UN shows that Mr Abbas is more interested in creating a legacy and in personal glory than he is in reaching peace with Israel."

Community leaders, residents and public health officials explore racial and socioeconomic factors that affect health care in a video released today by the Kent County Health Department.
"Differences in health status among vulnerable populations are not caused by individual behaviors," says Teresa Branson, a health educator for the health department. "There is a direct correlation between social, economic and environmental factors and health and equality."
Community leaders discuss how factors such as housing, transportation and discrimination affect individuals' health. One resident notes that living a healthy lifestyle takes a commitment that is difficult for many who are focused on survival.
They also discuss ways to address inequities and improve the health of those most vulnerable.
Shannon Wilson, executive director of the Grand Rapids African American Health Institute, calls for aligning resources.
"This is such a resource rich community that we can align resources and get resources to the point where everyone in the community is able to share in the great wealth of our community," she says.
The video was released in connection with a forum held Thursday on health equity.

As early as the 17th century, species of wood from Quebec were very much in demand and exported by ship to England. Because of the Nordic climate, indigenous trees grew more slowly and the wood harvested was particularly hard. However, in the wake of years of massive export of wood overseas, the government decided to regulate logging and oblige lumberjacks to fell trees 30.48 cm (12 in) or less from the ground in order to optimize the quantity of wood harvested. One can only imagine the effort deployed by lumberjacks who worked with axes and two-handed saws when compared to the much faster harvesting methods of today.
History of Hardwood Flooring
Five hundred years ago, First Nations split logs for use as boards. Ever in tune with nature, Natives sought to optimize their use of natural resources. The triangular-shaped boards sometimes found in very old dwellings bear witness to this habit of making maximum use of raw materials.
Until the 1900s, wood flooring in homes was made of softwood 38.10 mm to 50.80 mm (1 1/2 to 2 in) thick, to which a coating was applied. Hardwood was reserved for prestigious constructions such as manor houses, presbyteries, hotels, etc.
After the First World War, however, hardwood flooring became very popular. Efficient sawmills reduced costs, and hardwood flooring became more readily accessible to a wider range of consumers. Since the technique for making 19.8 mm (3/4 in) boards for walls was well established, sawmills began selling 19,8 mm (3/4 in) flooring boards. This was truly a happy coincidence, since this thickness turned out to be the ideal thickness for flooring boards! However, finished flooring did not exist at the time, and boards required maintenance using waxes and oils. Consumers whose lifestyle had become faster paced then turned to carpeting and linoleum.
In the 1980s, heightened environmental concerns and awareness of causes underlying allergies breathed new life into hardwood flooring board sales. Increasing numbers of consumers began replacing their worn carpeting with 19.8 mm (3/4 in) hardwood boards.
In the 1990s, innovative, high-performance varnishes made their debut and factory-finished flooring boards progressively began to garner a larger market share in the hardwood flooring industry.
By the early 2000s, prefinished flooring boards dominated the market. In a world where speed and perfection are watchwords, these boards offer the ideal solution for installers.
