The Word in and out of Season
Full Product Description
In the fourth volume of his popular series, veteran pastor and educator Richard Viladesau has written a collection of homilies for the seasons of Christmas and Easter. These two seasons "pose particular difficulties for the preacher because these feasts -- especially Christmas -- have been adopted into our culture in a secularized form that has little to do with their original religious meaning", contends Viladesau.In addition to homilies for the Christmas and Easter seasons, there are homiletic reflections on the Christian significance of birth marriage and deaths. The homilies, of three to four pages in length, make an engaging connection between Christian faith and contemporary existence in a secularized world.
The Word in and out of Season by Richard Viladesau was published by Paulist Press International,U.S. in January 2000. The ISBN for The Word in and out of Season is 9780809139828.

This review is from: GIGABYTE SUPERB GE-P450P-C2 550W ATX12V V2.3 80 PLUS Certified Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply
Pros: This psu is very quiet. It also has passive Power Factor Correction circuitry. That is what I was looking for in my media pc build. My uninterruptible power supply is a Non Sine Wave type and in a power outage the load being transfered to the UPS (conflicting opinions about this) will be more consistant coming from a passive PFC than an active PFC.
If you use a pure sine wave UPS then an active PFC power supply transfers the voltage waveform just fine.
Cons: None really ~ I could see if you had a huge towering pc chassis, then maybe a couple of the cables could be a little short.
Other Thoughts: Perfect PSU for my drum computer build.

text: Hi guys I'm new to this so please have patience with me. I've just finished what I believed was 22 years in the Infantry only to have JPA phone me and tell me yestreday afternoon that "You're one day short of qualifying for a pension." I was told that the matter is being looked at by a "Major in Worthy Down" who is emailing Kentigern House to try and resolve the matter. JPA's hands are tied and there is "nothing we can do". They can't give me contact details for the "Major in Worthy Down" neither can they tell me what date I should have finished or indeed what dates they have for my start and end of service. The ironic thing is that they also say that I was paid for four extra days beyond my run out date and they will be writing to me to ask to to return that money, I can't confirm these extra days as I have not received a pay statement detailing this payment. I'm at a loss as to how this happened I did have broken service but my pension qualfying date was amended to be 27 May 1985 until the 26 may 2007 this information was recieved from JPA by my regimental clerks and thus my leaving dates were arranged as a result of this. I have spoken to these clerks and they say they wil look at the matter on Monday so it looks like a worrying weekend for myself and the family. Does anyone have any advise or has anyone heard of a similar incident.

This Lent, take a 40-day devotional journey with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Click here to sign up.
This is a reason of what was said in the foregoing verse. 1. The sacrifices of the wicked are an abomination to God, not for want of some nice points of ceremony, but because their way, the whole course and tenour of their conversation, is wicked, and consequently an abomination to him. Sacrifices for sin were not accepted of those that resolved to go on in sin, and were to the highest degree abominable if intended to obtain a connivance at sin and a permission to go on in it. 2. Therefore the prayer of the upright is his delight, because he is a friend of God, and he loves him who, though he have not yet attained, is following after righteousness, aiming at it and pressing towards it, as St. Paul, Phil. 3:13.

It is the Year of the Pets.
You know when you ask someone what kind of music they listen to and they say "rock" and you're like, "Right, but what kind of rock? Garage rock? Hard rock? Punk rock?" and they say "yes" and you say, "But rock from the 70s? The 90s? Modern rock? What?" And they again say "yes." Well, either you are speaking to the foreign guy who doesn't speak any English or to a fan of Hector's Pets.
The Brooklyn band brings all kinds of rock elements into create a fuzzy, lo-fi rock supersound. Their new record Pet-O-Feelia dropped this week on Oops Baby Records (cassette coming soon on Burger Records) and it comes pre-loaded with all kinds of warm, thick guitar riffs. Check out their video for "Teenacher" below. Then pass it on to your new foreign friend. He'll love it.

A news story last week: "Religion can be good for your mental health." Professor Dan Cohen of the University of Missouri says: "Our research shows that the medical health of people recovering from different medical conditions appears to be related to positive spiritual beliefs, especially congregational support and spiritual interventions."
Yes, it is the silly season, otherwise the professor might not have got a look in. And this is not so much a news story as a reiteration of what is surely by now a truism. I could fill this newspaper by citing research that says the religious nexus – belief, churchgoing, performing altruistic acts – is psychologically beneficial. In his book Affluenza, the psychologist Oliver James identifies religion as an antidote to the "virus" of materialistic competitiveness: "... the scientific evidence has long been there: much to the consternation of social scientists, on average, regular churchgoers suffer less depression or unhappiness than unbelievers."
Smoking is bad for you, therefore most people I know have given up smoking. Religion is good for you... and yet most people I know think I'm very peculiar for going to church.
Cards on the table: I'm Church of England, and I go about once a week, preferably to a Communion service with the Book of Common Prayer. About 20 years ago, I found myself jealous of people who went to church, and then I thought: "Wait, I can go myself!" I was confirmed 15 years ago, and the process was a function of ageing. I wanted to avoid the fate of so many of my immediate predecessors, the baby boomers. They thought the point of life was to be in the Rolling Stones, and when they got to 35 and realised they weren't in the Rolling Stones, it was downhill all the way.
If you want to borrow a tenner off me, catch me coming out of church. "Serene" is not an adjective commonly applied to me, but I have moments of serenity in church or for a while afterwards. And I only ever give to charity, or act in a communitarian manner, within a churchgoing context. (Not much of the former, I fear, and I include in the latter such minimal engagement as hanging around for coffee after service). My wife knows it works for me, and when I'm under stress and behaving badly, she has been known to shout, "For God's sake, Andrew, go to church! Now!" Holidaying in Britain, I've seen her agitatedly leafing through a local paper, looking for a service for me to be directed towards.
My eldest son has noticed all this, and, the other day, he beadily remarked, "You want to go to Heaven don't you?" This did rankle, because my father (an atheist) thought the same of his own father who gave a lot of money to the church in the last years of his life. But I think my grandfather may have been influenced by observing his own father, who from middle-age onwards regularly mowed the lawn and did other odd jobs free of charge for a rather plush alms house/old people's home in his village. His idea was to ingratiate himself so he would be offered a berth there in his declining years, but having done all that work, he died before reaching the age of eligibility for the institution. So he had built his house on sand.
For the record, I do not want to go to Heaven. Actually, I'd better modify that just in case it's invoked against me at the Pearly Gates. I never think about going to Heaven, and have no conception of it. I go to church partly because I like going to church. I like the aesthetics of a good church, and a good service. I look for everything to be in the best possible taste – nothing low. My favourite service would be Choral Evensong at York Minster. One Sunday I turned up too late for that, and went over the road to a church called St Michael le Belfrey, which is, or was, low. The place was packed, and I had to say many excuse-me's and sorry-but-would you-mind's as I filed my way to an empty seat. I then glimpsed a man up near the pulpit strapping on an electric guitar, and I had to say my excuse-me's and sorry-but-would-you-mind's all over again as I filed directly out.
To me, a good church service is like a visit to a lecture, a concert and an art gallery combined, only with more point. Regarding the concert and art gallery elements, I am familiar with the line taken by such as Salman Rushdie: art is his religion. We can all agree that Rushdie is allowed to be excused conventional religion, but what puts me off revering art is knowing a few artists. It is the very neurosis caused by being in a "creative" profession that I seek to assuage in church.
So it is more than a matter of admiring the rood screen. I go to church in order to subscribe to the view that the world is (and I quote Michael McGhee, philosopher) "dependent, contingent, created". If that is the case, then your life has a purpose, and the purpose is to be kind. Do I actually believe that? I try to. Of all the clever and amusing things Boris Johnson is supposed to have said, I begrudgingly admit only one as fitting the bill. He said his religious faith was "like the reception of Magic FM in the Chilterns – it comes and goes". Me too. "But you're denying rationality!" people wail. "It's a scientific impossibility!" I might just mention some of the people a lot cleverer than my interlocutor who have faith, such as the Archbishop of Canterbury, or the many eminent scientists. Or I refer them to a remark of Stephen Hawking's: "The actual point of creation lies outside the scope of presently known laws of physics."
Do I believe in a literal virgin birth and a literal Resurrection? Well, I am not equipped to make that leap of faith, although I wish I could. But if my friends ask me whether I "believe in God" I say yes, partly to start an argument about what can be rationally explained.
Most of my friends are left-liberal atheists, and they provoke me because I don't think they give religion its due. By and large, foreigners are allowed to be religious, but not their own social peers, and they can be very rude in asserting as much. An acquaintance was proposing a trip to York, city of my birth. He planned to visit the Minster, and I said, "It'll cost you £6, unless you go to a service – that's free." "I won't be doing that," he positively snarled, and it annoyed me that his atheism trumped even his parsimony. It's not as if religion isn't the basis of his political philosophy, whether we're thinking in terms of William Wilberforce, the Chartists, Octavia Hill, Gladstone, Seebohm Rowntree, the Webbs, Kier Hardie. Yes, what has happened is that the political philosophy arising from Christianity has displaced the actual Christianity – government has replaced God – but you'd think people would be a bit more respectful of the source.
On a local level, religion is still socially and philanthropically important. The best schools, apart from private schools, in my middle-class part of north London are run by Catholics and Jews, and they are the main practitioners of what David Cameron might call the Big Society. Given the utility of religion, I personally would find it heartening if more people came out and said they went to church or had faith. But in the case of people sympathetic to the C of E, there's usually a caveat, if you read the small print. (Melvyn Bragg: "I am still unable to cross the River of Jordan which would lead me to a crucial belief in godly eternity.") But are the stroppy atheists happy or even remotely content in themselves? By their fruits shall ye know them.

This is an organization that supports protection of the unborn child, the terminally ill patient and the person who has become a burden to society.
The Pro-Life committee supports the spread of the culture of life by calling the parish community to prayer that seeks the intercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe with the Holy Spirit to effectuate the conversion of all those involved in anti-life activities.
Specific activities include sponsoring both daily rosary recitation Monday through Friday at 6:50 a.m. and 7:15 a.m. and the Sunday night of Adoration at 8:00 p.m., all in the Abbey Church. Learn More about the Rosary Crusade for Life
We coordinate and support the activities of the Archdiocesan Pro-Life Committee. Our annual Candlelight Dinner has raised substantial support for projects of Birthright. And we have assisted Pregnancy Resource Centers with the acquisition of two ultrasound machines and support for staffing their services. We believe that anyone can help us accomplish great things through prayer for conversions.
If you would like to join us, please call Fred Sauer, Chairman. He is listed in the Guide Book.
Rosary Crusade for Life: "Among all the devotions approved by the Church, none has been so favored by so many miracles as the devotion of the Most Holy Rosary" ~Pope Pius IX
Our Lady of Guadalupe Cenacle for Life
As the New Year approaches, our efforts are increasingly focused on the Rosary Crusade to protect embryonic human life. Our need for God's help is overwhelmingly apparent as we come to grips with the consequences of the deeply deceptive stem cell research Amendment 2 and what is has done to the Missouri Constitution.
Among other things, it provides:
- The constitutional right to clone human embryos
- The constitutional right to kill human embryos to harvest their stem cells
- The right to implant an embryo from in vitro fertilization and abort him or her at any stage of development to harvest stem cells.
- The right to obtain embryos from fertilization clinics to manipulate in the lab
- The right to pay women to surrender their eggs for experimentation, at the possible risk of their own health
- That all Missouri laws, statutes, and regulations must be construed in favor of cloning and cannot discourage cloning or create disincentives to cloning in any way
- A constitutional entitlement to ever-increasing taxpayer funding of cloning and the destruction of embryos
- A constitutional entitlement to ever-increasing taxpayer funding of private institutions that even associate with stem cell research, even if such funding has nothing to do with any such research.
- That any restrictive action by the legislature will be resolved in the court system where all laws must be construed in favor of cloning
- That cloners will be free from any meaningful oversight, control, regulation, deterring penalties, or judicial review
- That private institutions with endowments measured in billions of dollars can force Missouri taxpayers for cloning and the destruction of human embryos.
In 1531, the Image of Our Lady of Guadalupe was impressed on Juan Diego's cactus-fiber tilma, which remains, essentially undiminished by the passage of time, in her Basilica in what is now Mexico City, where she conquered the most heinous practice of human sacrifice.
We believe that imploring God's help in confronting this most grave evil is the most important thing we can do. Anyone is welcome to join us.

Sarah Iannarone
Portland is changing rapidly right before our eyes. It's a time of great opportunity, but the growing pains are intense. We must ask ourselves, how can we be a world class city without losing what makes Portland unique?
We are facing a future with serious issues such as a housing crisis; the aging infrastructure of our streets, schools and parks; and deep rifts within our community. I believe Portland is equipped with everything we need to solve these problems — the Portland way — through visionary leadership, innovation, and collaboration.
The challenges we face right now are not for the faint of heart. We need a brave leader to step up, think big, and unify Portland for a strong future.
My name is Sarah Iannarone (eye-ann-uh-roan). My bold vision, global expertise, local experience, and collaborative, community-based approach make me uniquely qualified to be Portland's next mayor. Read more about me and my vision for Portland's future here.

Haters keep hating the Comets. Please!
Posted in the Utica Forum
#1 Jun 18, 2013
I've never seen such a buz for any pro hockey team in Utica like there is for the Comets. They have to be close to matching the seaaon ticket sales of any of the Devils teams after just 4 days! I credit all of the haters out there for inadvertently adding to the buz and motivating the believers to go down to the aud and buying season tickets.
Let's go Comets!
#2 Jun 19, 2013
Come on haters keep hating on the Comets. Already over 1,000 season tickets sold. Thanks for adding to the buzzzzzz
#3 Jun 19, 2013
Haters gonna hate ... they root for failure and have miserable, rotten depressed lives. I hope a few of them try to come and protest opening night, cuz I'll effin' drop em' one!!!
#4 Jun 19, 2013
Dunderheads believe the bs of 1,000 season tickets sold. First, 90% of season tickets "sold" have NOT been paid for.
United States
#5 Jun 19, 2013
Ummm, I don't see anyone hating. Just a bunch of retarded obsessed hockey fans looking for haters. Few people care so good luck drumming up some hate to hate.
United States
#6 Jun 19, 2013
You kind of exemplify "retard" I'm sure the "comets" appreciate your spreading goodwill and being a tuffguy on their behalf hockeyman. Save that for you day job beating inmates and koons or whatever people are willing to pay problematic loudmouths like you to do for a living.
#7 Jun 19, 2013
I agree,most of the people who are on this site root for failure because they have rotten, depressed lives especially people who don't live here. They have to be really bored and depressed with their lives. So sad.
United States
#8 Jun 19, 2013
You agree with what? The other 4 posters who agree with eachother that no one cares so you have to pretend everyone hates it so you have something to do and start an "issue" where none seems to exist?
What you mean by all your posts really says "I agree, we need to talk about ourselves and stir up hate because most of the people who are on this site root for controversy because they have rotten, depressed lives especially people who don't live here. They have to be really bored and depressed with their lives."
Well said. Actions speak louder than the words. So far no one is hating on hockey. But we see lots of people who like it acting like haters looking for something to whine about.
#9 Jun 19, 2013
And some just like to babble on and on here because they don't have anyone else that will listen to their nonsense. Is that any better for ya?
Since: Jul 12
#10 Jun 19, 2013
theres no cure for the haters, nothing makes them happy and they love to spread doom and gloom.....
#12 Jun 19, 2013
And how do you know that? Please explain.
United States
#13 Jun 19, 2013
Does this explain why you start threads called "Haters keep hating the Comets. Please!"? You DO see how pathetic that looks right?
Since: Jul 12
#14 Jun 20, 2013
i didnt start this thread, what are you looking at???? theres nothing but love for the comets in the hockey community.
#15 Jun 20, 2013
You need to make the distinction between the Comets and using tax money to support the effort.
I don't hate the Comets. I actually like the idea of having an AHL team here. I'm not rooting for them to fail either. I think they eventually willn not because of "haters" but because economic reality will overshadow the "bandwagon effect" we are seeing now.
What I hate is this. I hate the idea of using tax money to support it at a time when the city, county and state are all in debt and raising taxes every year. In a reality based, logical listing of funding priorities an AHL team would have to be fairly low. That's why the whole Aud funding aspect of this was done in secret and then sprung on taxpayers before they had an opportunity to really think about it and respond.
#16 Jun 20, 2013
Where did you read tax-dollars are paying for it? Please send a link to confirm, because we all read different....(haters gonna hate)
#17 Jun 20, 2013
First, I didn't realize you speak for everyone else in the world.
"A key draw for Vancouver was that the state will be pumping $5 million into the Utica Aud inside and out."
Read more: http://www.uticaod.com/news/x1484774957/Utica...
The AHL has standards and specifications for the venues where they allow their teams to play. Without the improvements/upgrades paid for with tax dollars - no team.
Have you not been paying attention? Your screen name seems very apt given an uninformed comment like yours.
#18 Jun 20, 2013
And without the team those state funds would have went somewhere else. Would you have preferred they went to the glens falls civic center instead? Would you have preferred they were given to binghampton?
#19 Jun 20, 2013
This one may be more no topic because of the source. This is Robert Esche from and interview with WIBX:
"On the total of $5 million dollars in state money that is funding upgrades at the AUD:I know this may fall on deaf ears, but I swear, it was a terrific experience dealing with our politicians. They said from day one,If you can get a team in here long term, well help you out. Esche also indicated the state assistance was a key piece of the deal"
Is there another way to read this than to say that taxpayer money was instrumental in making this happen?
#20 Jun 20, 2013
I would prefer that those funds had gone back to those who paid the taxes in the form of tax cuts that would make this region more attractive to business. If business propers, we all prosper. When we all prosper, we all have more disposable income for entertainment. When we all have more disposable income for entertainment the hockey fans will demand and be able to pay for hockey without taxpayer subsidy.
If that couldn't be done then I would rather see the funds go to education, infrastructure or any of the other civic necessities that saw cuts in the most recent budget.
United States
#21 Jun 20, 2013
I agree. The whole post was clearly started by the troublemaker types looking for a fight. So far no one's stooped to their level lol! This is insanely stupid, even more so the cavalier way they A- Don't realize and had to have a link to show them it did INDEED cost taxpayer money and B- they literally do not recognize the money isn't from a finite source, and think it's better to sit and yell at hockey players than put it into their schools or roads etc.
Classic utica. I am glad they have the team but the whole attitude problem from this crew is getting stupid now.

Worst hotel in India
by Tamara R on August 6, 2016
Skip this place! Do not stay here, not even if you are paying a really cheap price! Probably the worst hotel we stayed in our trip in India. The smell is terrible, rooms and bathrooms not clean, and (don't know why) everyone was screaming at night! The next day, for our check out, they wanted us to PAY EXTRA because we checked in earlier the day before. Something that obviously no one told us at the moment!! Worst experience in India.

Sure it's a world where great causes are often difficult, and deal with horrible issues like poverty, homelessness, or drug abuse. As a result, most efforts at sharing the message of non-profits are deadly serious. But more and more creative non-profit organizations are mining the virtues of humor in messaging, and it's working. Variety Magazine covered a "mockumentary" called "The Majestic Plastic Bag" produced for the Heal the Bay environmental group. It's fabulous. Narrated by Jeremy Irons, it's been a huge success with more than 100,000 views just in the first 5 days on YouTube. To date, it's been seen by nearly 2 million viewers.

How to Stage a Memorable Banquet
I know, I know. I write on media, faith, and culture, but this time I have to speak out on a topic close to my heart (and stomach). If I have to attend one more poorly planned rubber chicken event for an organization's fundraising, anniversary, or award, I'll slice my wrists. Come on people, banquets can actually be fun, not the torture sessions we usually sit through. So if you have to plan an event in the near future, here's some tips to keep in mind (if you don't want me leaving early):
Effective Videos Can Make a Huge Difference for Your Organization
Social media expert Brian Boyd send me this note on the importance of video in branding and social media. It was so pertinent to our clients and readers, I thought I'd share it:
Is Your Brand Enriching Someone's Life?
Looking out over the horizon, the hottest and fastest growing brands bring value to people's lives. That's why there's a huge opportunity right now for brands that make a difference. Back in 2006, advertising legend Bob Greenberg said, "The real opportunity for brands now lives in finding ways to enrich lives." What about your product? It might be a
Advertising Isn't Just About a Message Anymore
In today's cluttered and distracted world, it takes more than a great message to get noticed. Some researchers believe we're being bombarded with as many as 5,000 media messages per day, so cutting through that massive clutter has become just as important as the message you're trying to deliver. As a result, advertising isn't just about the message anymore. It's about
First Impressions Count
Your mom told you that "First impressions count." In the digital age, mom's advice matters more than ever. With today's technology – email, instant messaging, Twitter, mobile phones, texts, and more, word travels fast, and first impressions matter. In fact – and this is what I want you to remember – when it comes to fundraising and donor development, the way you first connect with a TV viewer, radio listener, supporter, or donor is the way they'll expect you to connect from that point on. In other words – reach them through email first, and they'll expect that to continue. Reach them through direct mail, the expectations are the same. So give a lot of thought to how you want to start the conversation with potential donors, because they get used to it.
How Should Churches, Ministries, and Non-Profits Respond to the Current Financial Dilemma?
Reading the newspaper or listening to the TV news makes it hard not to wonder about the economy. Some say it's getting stronger, while others protest it's in a serious crisis. It takes up the majority of the presidential candidates speech time, and it's pretty much 24/7 on the cable news channels. Whatever is going on, it's important that non-profits understand the connections between the economy and giving. There's little empirical data out there on the issue, but experience is a good teacher, and you need some tools to work with as your consider your strategy for the coming months. Here are my thoughts on the current economic situation and how it could impact your organization. I would encourage you to meet with your team and make sure they understand these important principles:

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I work for a small company that hires employees for full-time positions but does not put them on W-2. I have seen many people become depressed here. All quit or are fired. It is a cycle. The owners create a hostile working environment. Recently there was a threat to fire us all. There is no HR. I fear that if I state the conditions are unfair, I will be fired. They do many things that are illegal yet no one says anything, myself included. Do I have rights? Can I sue this company for abuse?
Yes, you absolutely do have rights and do not deserve to be subject to illegal actions by your employer. A full consultation would be needed to properly advise you. Consult with an employment law attorney.
If you are truly an employee, then you are being misclassified and being deprived of benefits like worker compensation, disability, the employer's payroll tax contributions as well as the protection of the wage and hour laws, i.e. the right to minimum wage, overtime, meal and rest breaks, etc.
You can file a complaint for misclassification of an employee as an independent contractor with the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement online. For useful useful information and a link to the online complaint form go to:
You can also report the inaccurate 1099 online on the IRS website. If you fail to do so, the government will charge you tax on the full amount claimed by your former employer and allow the former employer to take an undeserved deduction in that amount. In addition, your former employer is apparently misclassifying you to avoid payroll taxes and forcing you to pay self employment tax.
You can also consult an attorney, who can assist you and you may be able to recover your reasonable legal fees. Labor Code 218.5
If you are an employee, you have additional legal protections against retaliation for asserting your legal rights.
If you are dependent on your job, you consider considering document your claim and waiting until near the end of the statute of limitations period, which may be three years through the labor commissioner and four years if you sue under the unfair business practices law.
Whether the employer is creating a hostile work environment is a different question, which cannot be answered from the facts presented. A threat to fire all the employees may be bad management, but it is not a hostile work environment. Typically, a hostile work environment must be severe and pervasive as well as motivated by an illegal reason such as discrimination against a protected class such as race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, military service, disability, etc. or opposing illegal conduct.
If you have been improperly characterized as an independent contractor, and you can prove as much, you have all of the rights that an employee would have. That means you may have been entitled to overtime pay and rest periods that you have not been provided access to. However, the problems you post about do not appear to be unlawful. Therefore, even if you are an employee, you may not have any right to complain about conduct that is "hostile" or that depresses you, or that are unfair. Those are not valid reasons for a lawsuit. Only if the conduct is being directed at you because you are a member of a protected class of people, or because you engaged in some form of legally-protected conduct would you have any right to a claim of unlawful conduct.
Many employees do not understand that rude, aggressive, unfair, irrational, mean and even evil conduct is not unlawful. It appears that even though you have the right of an employee to sue even though improperly characterized as a contractor, you do not have a right to sue for "abuse."
Good luck to you.

I agree with Mr. Pedersen and Mr. Kane. There is no such thing as a right to sue for "abuse." Unfortunately, employers have a right to be as abusive as they choose to be, and there is no law against it. They are not required to have an HR department. They can create a hostile work environment if that is what they choose to do, and there is no law against it (unless the environment is hostile based on a protected characteristic, like race, age sex, disability, religion, and some others).
It is, however, illegal to misclassify you as an independent contractor if you are in fact an employee. California has stiff penalties for intentional misclassifications. You will, however, want to have sufficient evidence to show that you are en employee. It would be illegal (if you are an employee) to retaliate against you for complaining about misclassification, but employers do illegal things all the time. Probably the most practical thing for you to do if you're unhappy there is to find another position, and then consider if you want to take legal action. Most likely, you'll have moved on by then and put this experience behind you, have no desire to sue, and that is the best result for all concerned.
I hope this information is helpful to you.

It sounds like a horrible place to work. You are entitled to be paid properly if you've been misclassified as the other attorneys have mentioned. You should talk to an attorney about the other illegal practices going on because you may have other great potential claims that may be a basis for a lawsuit if you complained about them and were terminated for complaining.
Best of luck.

Dovetail Shop & Studio is the collaboration of Margaret & Josh Smith. Dovetail Studio is dedicated to making hand-made, high quality goods that have good design as a top priority.
All of our ceramic ware is designed, constructed, fired and screen-printed at home at Dovetail Studio. We begin with high quality moist porcelain clay and fashion it into the pieces you see here. Each piece is handled numerous times during the process of creating, glazing and adding the screen-printed imagery. In fact most pieces are fired in our kiln no less than three times in order to achieve the final product. All of our ceramic ware is high-fired, vitrified porcelain, food safe and durable for everyday use.
Being an artist is the most challenging thing I could do vs. It was something that was fun and came natural.
Interested in modernism, like modernist shapes and a modernist aesthetic, but a little more loose.
We hatched a collaborative vision of work that we haven't seen out there but that we would like to see, so we worked on making it come to a reality.
It's much more satisfying to make it by hand.
We are Dovetail.

Canadiens 2, Senators 1
MONTREAL David Desharnais and Erik Cole scored first-period goals as Montreal beat Ottawa.
The victory completed a sweep of weekend matinees at home for Montreal (6-2) after a 6-1 victory Saturday over the Buffalo Sabres. The Canadiens have won five in a row at home after dropping their home opener to Toronto on Jan. 19.
Jakob Silfverberg scored for Ottawa (5-3-1), which was coming off a 1-0 loss at Carolina on Friday night. Senators goalie Craig Anderson has not conceded a goal after the first period in eight games this season.
Max Pacioretty was back on the ice only eight days after having his appendix removed and got an assist on his first shift. His return gave Montreal an almost completely healthy lineup and dropped Lars Eller from the first to the fourth line a day after he had three points against the Sabres.
The game was only 36 seconds old when Tomas Plekanec was sent off for goalie interference, and Ottawa used the man advantage to take the lead at 1:38.

text: How to create the biggest mudslide you've ever seenAnnalee Newitz12/20/10 10:30amFiled to: mad sciencegeophysicsearth scienceScienceTop241EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink It's landslide season. Just in time for the mud rampages, a group of geophysicists have released a series of videos showing how to create the worst mudslides imaginable. The key? Water pressure. Advertisement Image by Damian Dovarganes/Associated PressA team of researchers used an outdoor lab called the USGS Debris-Flow Flume, which is a 95-meter-long slide. Scientists send huge amounts of rocks, debris, and water shooting down the flume in order to understand the physics of, well, flowing debris. Lasers and other instruments mounted on the flume measure everything from the flow's speed and mass, to how compact the substance is as it flows. Advertisement The researchers had a simple question: Why do mudslides often speed up and gain mass when they are zooming over a wet landscape? It turns out that the answer is related to why cars hydroplane on rain-slick roads. When mudslides rush over wet ground, the grains of dirt and sand in the flow become very compact, creating millions of tiny pockets of water under extremely high pressure. Like that heavy car careening over a wet road, the mudslide is basically skating over the top of the wet ground on a thin layer of highly-pressurized water. That's why the mudslide gains speed over wet ground, but slows down over dry ground.But unlike the hydroplaning car, the mudslide also gains mass. The same forces that make the mudslide zoom over the ground so quickly also allow it to "scour" its muddy bed, picking up the ground that it's skating over. So as the mudslide's speed increases, so too does its size. That helps to explain why mudslides that pour over a wet mountainside may seem relatively small when they start, but wind up causing enormous damage by the time they reach level ground.Here's a video taken a couple of years ago when the researchers were doing the tests that led to the discoveries chronicled in their Nature publication yesterday. I love the way the lead researcher's introduction sounds completely dry, and then once the mudslide starts, you hear the whole geophysics group whooping and cheering as the watery mixture comes sliding down the flume, gathering speed and mass. (You'll see the mudslide repeatedly from several different camera angles.)You can watch dozens more mudslide videos via the USGS Debris-Flow Flume website.

Archaeology of Time by Gavin Lucas
Book DescriptionIt might seem obvious that time lies at the heart of archaeology, since archaeology is about the past. However, the issue of time is complicated and often problematic, and although we take it very much for granted, our understanding of time affects the way we do archaeology. This book is an introduction not just to the issues of chronology and dating, but time as a theoretical concept and how this is understood and employed in contemporary archaeology. It provides a full discussion of chronology and change, time and the nature of the archaeological record, and the perception of time and history in past societies. Drawing on a wide range of archaeological examples from a variety of regions and periods, The Archaeology of Time provides students with a crucial source book on one of the key themes of archaeology.

The platelet membrane glycoprotein Ib-IX complex (GPIb-IX) plays an important role in platelet adhesion, particularly in arteries and capillaries. At sites of vascular injury, GPIb-IX interacts with the subendothelium-bound von Willebrand factor (VWF). This interaction not only mediates the physical adherence of platelets to the site of vascular injury, but also initiates signaling. GPIb-IX-mediated signaling leads to the cytoskeleton reorganization and activation of the ligand binding function of the platelet integrin aIIbB3 that mediates stable platelet adhesion, spreading and aggregation. This process is critical in both hemostasis and thrombosis. VWF binding to GPIb-IX also induces release of platelet microparticles that facilitates coagulation. Under certain pathological conditions such as thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), binding of GPIb-IX to circulating ultra-large VWF multimers induces microthrombosis and development of microthrombopathy. The overall goals of this project are to understand the signaling mechanism of GPIb-IX in thrombosis, platelet activation and cytoskeleton organization, and to explore the possibility of developing GPIb-IX-based therapeutic approaches. In the last 3 years'since the previous renewal, we have made significant progresses in understanding the regulatory role of 14-3-3 in GPIb function, developed an in vivo inhibitor delivery method allowing testing the in vivo effects of 14-3-3 inhibitor on GPIb function and thrombus formation, and delineated a novel Lyn-PI3K- Akt1/Akt2-NO-cGMP signaling pathway as an early signaling mechanism leading to integrin activation and stable platelet adhesion under shear stress. Furthermore, we have obtained substantial amount of preliminary data that forms the basis of new hypotheses for the specific aims of this competitive renewal. We propose following specific aims:
Aim 1, to determine the role of GPIb-IX and 14-3-3 in thrombosis and microvascular thrombosis in sepsis and TTP and to explore the therapeutic effect of an inhibitor of GPIb-IX-14-3-3 interaction;
Aim 2, to investigate the role of LIMK1 in GPIb-IX-mediated platelet activation and cytoskeleton reorganization;
and Aim 3, to determine the role of Rac1 in GPIb-IX-mediated signaling leading to platelet activation and microparticle release.
A receptor molecule on the surface of blood platelets, named glycoprotein Ib-IX, mediates adhesion of blood platelets to blood vessel wall, and is important in preventing excessive bleeding when blood vessels are injured. This molecule is also important in thrombosis, that is "clotting" in blood vessels causing heart attack and stroke. This research project is to study how glycoprotein Ib-IX initiates platelet adhesion and "clotting". We will also investigate whether this molecule participates in the formation of small clots in patients suffering from severe sepsis, and develop a new drug that may potentially be useful in treating clotting in patients suffering from heart attack, stroke and sepsis.

Once the steps covered by a plaintiff's legal aid certificate had been accomplished, the certificate was spent and the plaintiff was no longer a legally assisted person protected against an order for costs in respect of any further steps taken in the proceedings.
The Court of Appeal dismissed an appeal by the plaintiff from Judge Ford's decision in the Patents County Court that the plaintiff was not a legally assisted person entitled to protection against an order of costs under section 17 of the Legal Aid Act 1988.
Section 17 provides:
The liability of a legally assisted party under an order for costs made against him with respect to any proceedings shall not exceed the amount (if any) which is a reasonable one for him to pay having regard to all the circumstances, including the financial resources of all the parties and their conduct in connection with the dispute.
The plaintiff, a registered proprietor of a United Kingdom patent, was granted legal aid to take proceedings against the defendant for breach of patent rights,
limited to obtaining further evi-
dence and thereafter counsel's opinion as to the merits and quantum, and to include settling of proceedings or defence (and counterclaim) if counsel so advise.
Counsel was unable to advise on the validity of the patent as he was not provided with details of any prior art but advised that, if the patent was valid, the plaintiff had a good arguable case. He settled a draft statement of case. Without further reference to the legal aid committee proceedings were then issued. The defendant denied infringement of the patent and challenged its validity, relying on prior art. The plaintiff subsequently discontinued the proceedings.
The defendant, who was not given notice of the issue of the legal aid certificate, sought to recover against the plaintiff the costs of preparing and settling a defence to the proceedings. The plaintiff applied for an order that his liability for costs should be limited as if section 17 applied.
Gilead Cooper (Mildred & Beaumont) for the plaintiff; Gregory Chambers (Eversheds, Nottingham) for the defendant.
Sir Thomas Bingham MR said that the appeal raised an issue of considerable practical importance on the legal effect of a legal aid certificate granted to the plaintiff and arose where a legal aid certificate was limited by reference to specific procedural steps or stages.
It was accepted that the issue of proceedings was a step which was outside the scope of the plaintiff's legal aid certificate. The plaintiff had been assessed as having a disposable income of nil and a disposable capital of nil and had not been required to make any contribution towards his legal aid expenditure. The question was whether section 17 protected the plaintiff against an order for payment of the defendant's costs.
The plaintiff did not have the benefit of a legal aid certificate to issue proceedings. The defendant incurred the relevant costs preparing and delivering a defence to proceedings which the plaintiff had no authority from the legal aid committee to issue.
His Lordship could not see how, in relation to those costs, the plaintiff was to be regarded as a legally assisted person. That was exactly what he was not. He had been such for the accomplishment of three clearly defined steps. Those steps had been accomplished. There was strictly no need to discharge the certificate. It was spent. Everything it authorised had been done.
The proposition that a legal aid certificate granted to cover certain procedural steps or stages protected the assisted party against an order for costs until the certificate was discharged was not sound. Littaur v Steggles Palmer [1986] 1 WLR 287 showed that the legal aid certificate did not have to be discharged if it was spent.
So, from the time of the issue of proceedings, the plaintiff held no relevant legal aid certificate. His solicitors were not thereafter entitled to be paid by the legal aid board until a new certificate had been issued. And the plaintiff was not entitled to the protection of section 17. Everything which the current certificate authorised to be done had been done. The appeal was dismissed.
Lord Justice Peter Gibson agreed. Lord Justice Schiemann concurred.

Last week, on the morning of Monday, April 9, a fire tore through the long-vacant Thomas W. Buck Hosiery building at York and Jasper streets, taking the lives of two firefighters, 60-year-old Lt. Robert P. Neary and Daniel Sweeney, 25.
And even the surrounding community felt the heat of those flames.
Swept into the air by heavy winds, hot embers spewed by the blaze settled onto the roofs of homes throughout the area.
"It was raining embers. Some people told us that it looked like the sky was on fire," said Sandy Salzman, executive director of the New Kensington Community Development Corp., which is working to support locals whose homes have been damaged by the fire.
"It melted the rubber off of a roof on Coral Street," she said.
In fact, according to Tom Potts, neighborhood advisory committee coordinator for the NKCDC, as many as six houses on Jasper Street alone had roofs burned off by embers from the fatal fire.
"I walked through a couple of them," Potts said of the houses. "They were in bad shape."
In the aftermath of the fire, NKCDC staffers took to the streets to document damage to homes. The agency is urging neighbors to call with any concerns. (See information at the end of this story.)
The civic agency is especially concerned about homes on Trenton and Coral streets. NKCDC also is compiling a list of area structures like the old Buck building — vacant and decaying structures that could pose a threat to the community if they were the next to burn.
"Then we are going to take it (the list) to City Council and say, 'We need you to do something about these properties,'" said Potts.
"You're always concerned about that next building," Salzman agreed.
In fact, she said, the community has one property that many locals are worried might be the next in danger.
She suggested that if the Buck building fire had been caused by squatters trying to keep warm with an open flame — at this point, the fire department's investigation is continuing, with no official finding as yet — it's possible that vagrants could seek another vacant building for warmth.
Salzman said neighbors fear that the next building at similar risk could be an abandoned five-story structure at 2301 N. Front St.
The building — which locals call the "white elephant" —has been vacant for some time. It is positioned so close to the Market-Frankford Elevated Line that a fire there could cause significant damage to the SEPTA rail system, Salzman said.
Unlike the Buck building, the taxes at the "white elephant" site appear to be paid up. Just the same, Salzman said, such buildings that often are owned by entities from outside the area have a way of making residents of the riverwards just a bit uneasy.
ldquo;I just have to laugh sometimes," she said, with a hint of frustration. "It's like they just don't care about our communities."
In addition to NKCDC's efforts to help homeowners following last week's fire, the East Kensington Neighbors Association has formed a group to pursue solutions to the problem of the long-vacant factories and other buildings that plague the community.
"Right now there's a lot of frustration over this whole thing," said EKNA treasurer Pat McHugh. "Maybe due to this tragedy, L&I (the city's Department of Licenses and Inspections) will be more responsive."
L&I had been working with neighbors for some time to seal the Buck building and bring action against its New York-based owners.
Chris Sawyer, local activist who has made fighting blight and illegal signs in the community something of a personal cause, said that L&I had said in November that it planned to pursue the status of the Buck building with its owners, with a possible sheriff's sale in the months ahead.
While this tragedy is being cited in the community as an example of the dangers posed by long-vacant industrial structures, how can it be prevented?
Sawyer said he'd like to see more transparency in L&I to allow residents better access to the records for properties in their area, thus enabling the public to know whether buildings in their communities are up to code.
As it stands, Sawyer said, much of the pertinent documentation that L&I has on area properties can be obtained only through legal filings. ••
Managing editor Hayden Mitman can be reached at 215-354-3124 or firstname.lastname@example.com
In case of damage:
The New Kensington Community Development Corp. is asking neighbors to check their roofs for damage as a result of last week's fire at the Thomas Buck Building.
Embers can be carried great distances by winds, and even homes outside of the immediate vicinity may have been affected. Owners of homes as far as five blocks from the site of the fire have reported roof damage.
If you have damage to your home and need assistance with an insurance-related issue, contact the Pennsylvania Insurance Department, Bureau of Consumer Services line, at 717-787-3840.
