FLOTUS: Better Vote Early in Case Your Toilet's Overflowing on Election Day
Filed Under Politics | 40 Comments
Originally I hadn't planned to mention this but then I remembered that my parents always taught me to never look a gift election metaphor in the mouth, so here goes:
"On Monday I led by example: I mailed in my ballot early," she said. "I voted for Barack Obama. And I did it because I want to spend Election Day really working to turn out the vote, and that's something that you may want to think about doing."
Mrs. Obama continued: "Early voting is important because it gives you that convenience, truly — especially students with busy schedules, families with busy lives.
"You wake up on Election Day — you might have a cold, babysitter gets sick, it's raining, car broke down, I mean I could go on — toilet overflowing," she said, to a laughing audience. "There are so many ways to mess up a day when you don't have a lot of time."
The pitch has gone from "Change We Can Believe In" to "In Case Your Sh*tter's Clogged" in just four short years.
Hopefully November 6th brings about an epic flush.

O/T but an update on the Yahoo polls. Anything political has been REALLY trending towards a conservative point of view. Now here is Yahoo's newest trick. It appears that Yahoo is limiting the answers when the trend is getting out of hand so a notice pops up that says they are experiencing "difficulties". Yaaaa righhhhhttttt!!!!!

Toilets do tend to get clogged when they get too much Obama in them. The economy is suffering from more crap than it can handle too.

Bet it sucks to be you right now, mamabama. From free world travel on AF-1 and free five-star hotels on the American taxpayer's dime to bending over the dumpster and pumping loafs with a plunger. It couldn't happen to a more deserving lump of lowlife flesh.
How far they have fallen. One might almost pity you but, NOT!!
If over one billion dollars pilfered and stolen from the U.S. Treasury and other ill-gotten gain couldn't buy four more years in the WH, does your ego really think you'll make a difference on the last day?
You're a deal breaker, mamabama, and we'll give The Donald the last word re you and your weasel: "You're …!"

I am thinking Trump has something to the effect that Ozero enrolled in college as a foreign student. I just hope he doesn't make an a$$ out of himself over something that we already know and throw support to Ozero zombies.

The political poll they had up today had "problems" all afternoon. I looked at the poll results and the conservative view had a 10 pt. lead. At 6pm they had changed the poll question.
I find it very amusing when the Yahoo poll does not get the desired result and drops it like a hot potato!!!

Once again – we have an alternative to the debate tonight here in Michigan. The last couple of debates – our Detroit Tigers were battling for a spot in the World Series. Tonight the Detroit Lions will be up against the Chicago Bears. Hopefully they can kick some Ozero a$$ on the football field (although there is no difference between the cities – they are both democrat/socialist strongholds) still – gotta root for the home team. And will do so and occasionally peek in on the debate. I can read all about Ozero's "unexpected", "unbridled", "absolute command", "unfettered command" and what other BS to describe his big "win" on foreign policy debate over Mitt. When, in real time, all Ozero is going to brag about is – I killed BinLaden. End of story. Liberal media rejoices!!!!

And what does that say about the ECONOMY her hubby GAVE these people!? Right Mamabama, millions find after the last 4 years their lives are so tentative a flat tire repair would be about all it'd take to blow their budget.

Speaking of "epic"; loyal listeners to Glenn Beck`s radio show have heard Pat Grey sing "Happy Days Are Here Again" with his trademark modifications to fit the dem losers on the days after elections. He did it after the 2010 elections and then when Scott Walker won re-election. 11-7-12 should be EPIC !! I can`t wait !! I know my sides will be hurting !

I was joking to myself yesterday that, I'm happy to have the right to vote, but having to drive 19 hours to the voting booth seems excessive and a possible attempt at voter disenfranchisement! I'll have to see about early mail in voting.

On the ground report:
At McCollum Park, at the 128th Street Exit in Mill Creek, WA, there were at least 10 cars dropping off ballots at noon yesterday, including 2 votes for Romney, McKenna, Baumgartner, and Koster
Hopefully, Romney wins WA state by at least 2 votes. Hope springs eternal, I guess….

October 23rd, 2012 11:55 am
WOW! On Rasmussen, Romney hits 50%!
I'm a believer in this: As long as you're above 50%, it doesn't matter what the undecideds do. This is the first step… and at the right time. Last night, the line about "we have aircraft carriers now" was the clincher. I think a lot of people will think this guy is desparate.
I knew Joe Biden. Mr. President, you're no Joe Biden.

That would be nice, but I am not holding my breath. You know as well as I do that the morons in Seattle and Olympia (and most of the surrounding suburbs) will decide the direction of the state.
I am pleased to see that Obama is now in single digits in WA ST (down from the 14 point lead he had about a month ago), but it would take a lot of work and way more than 2 votes (that would easily be made up in post election shennanigans by KC elections) to ensure a GOP victory.
Truesoldier__ on
October 23rd, 2012 1:08 pm
I think Romney is at the 50% margin in large part because the undecideds have decided they have had enough of Obama.
This is pretty big news as Rasmussen has been the pollster closest to the actual outcome of the last couple of elections.
Truesoldier__ on
October 23rd, 2012 1:14 pm
Here is a pretty good article of why one reporter sees Romney as the winner and has a very good chance to win in 2 weeks. The last paragraph sums it up nicely:
We also have to judge this debate as part of the narrative arc of this season. Romney won the first debate by a mile. Because Romney's win was so decisive, it sparked an image change: Americans started to think of him as presidential material. That's why Obama winning the second debate by an inch made little impact – people were watching Romney not to see him land punches but to see how well he could take them. He won the third debate because, by the end of the night, his and Obama's positions in the narrative arc had switched. Romney now looks like the President and Obama looks like the challenger.

Yeah, I don't trust "Registered Voter" polls, but I do "Likely Voter" ones.
However, in this election, I think the likely ones that are in the R camp may be more likely than those that are in the D camp, like in 2008.

When you want to settle a dispute without going to court, you may benefit from the services of an arbitration lawyer. In an arbitration setting, you and the other involved party select a neutral third person to serve as an arbitrator. Acting in the role of an informal judge, the arbitration lawyer listens to both sides of your dispute. Unlike a court proceeding, arbitration involves no formal procedural rules and gives you a chance to tell your story in your own words. After hearing the arguments, the arbitrator makes a final binding decision. The decision is legally enforceable if someone later tries to renege. The arbitration process is very similar to court litigation but is more casual, flexible, and private—and less expensive and time-consuming.

Today I helped a customer who had been using Data Rescue 3 to try to recover some lost images that she had taken recently. She had ran a Deep Scan on her hard drive and her camera cards but was not able to find the RAW images that she had accidentally deleted. She had a new Canon camera that produced .CR2 files that was specific to that camera and Data Rescue 3's File Module for .CR2 was not able to recognize the updated file type.
FileIQ learns the unknown file type
She decided to try the FileIQ feature to see if Data Rescue 3 needed to learn the specific .CR2 file type that her camera produced in order to find these files. After adding the new File Module using FileIQ, she ran the scan again on her hard drive but was not sure where to look in the Scan Results. I spoke with her and guided her to look in the Reconstructed Files folder of the Scan Results, this contains the User Defined folder where she could find the folder for her recently added File Module. She then recovered all of her files to another drive and was glad we were able to help her.

I came across this item today while searching for coin purses:
I was looking for something a little classier, but I have to admit I was intrigued by the thought of a cane toad coin purse. Turns out that Pete's Bizarre Bazaar has a whole line of cane toad (Bufo marinus) leather products, from cell phone cases to baseball caps. The company is based in Australia, which has had great difficulty controlling burgeoning populations of the toads since their intentional introduction in the 1930's.

Following last month's executive shakeup at Current TV in which CEO Mark Rosenthal abruptly resigned and was replaced by co-founder Joel Hyatt, the fledgling cable network has hired veteran news executive David Bohrman as president. Bohrman, who starts immediately, will be based in New York and San Francisco and will oversee programming, production, broadcast operations, digital and technology, working closely with co-founders Hyatt and Al Gore as well as Current's Chief News Officer Keith Olbermann, the network says. "Current's mission has always been to shine a light on important issues, to spark debate and to speak truth to power," Gore said. "David Bohrman passionately shares our vision. He has innovation in his DNA, and he has the unique qualifications and relationships to take Current to a whole new level in programming and production." For the past decade, Bohrman was CNN's SVP Programming and Washington, DC bureau chief, and in May of this year, he became CNN's SVP and Chief Innovation Officer Worldwide. Before that, he executive produced NBC News' special news events from 1993-1997 and was part of MSNBC's launch team, where he created The Site and Imus in the Morning. For 13 years before that Bohrman was at ABC News, where he was a senior producer and part of the launch team of Nightline and executive producer of World News Now.
David Bohrman Named Current TV President
3 Comments
The only thing "Current": about Current TV now is the smell of the shit they currently are programming. They used to have interesting programming but all that was flushed away.
Current TV lost me when they dumped Bryan Safi. Good luck in the mainstream, Current TV.
omg… it wasn't abrupt. amazing how a mistake just repeats itself online until it becomes fact.
it was known the dude was leaving. there was no chaos or upheaval.

About Team Honduras
"The Intersections of Voluntourism, Conservation and Livelihoods: Strengthening Approaches to Conservation in Utila, Honduras"
Utila, Honduras
Team Honduras, comprised of Team Leader, Suzanne Kent, and six supporting team members will be working on the Honduran island of Utila to contribute to ongoing efforts to address environmental degradation and potential livelihood disruptions. In part due to the country's emphasis on tourism development as a source of foreign revenue and relatively moderate land prices, the extremely fragile, small island of Utila has experienced rapid urbanization and deforestation. Team Honduras' project seeks to develop action plans for Utilian conservation NGOs to strengthen voluntourism arrangements in ways that: (1) help ensure volunteer activities contribute to the conservation and sustainable development goals of the organizations, and (2) the plans are informed by an analysis of both the tensions and continuities between conservation and livelihoods on Utila. Collaborators include the Coral Reef Alliance, Kanahau Research and Conservation Facility, and the Bay Islands Conservation Association (BICA), all located in Utila, Honduras.
Team members:
- Suzanne Kent, PhD., Senior Teaching Appointee, Colorado State University (CSU), Colorado (Team leader)
- Luis Chévez Contreras, M.A., Scientific Station Coordinator, Iguana Research and Breeding Station, Utila, Honduras
- Andrea Albergoni, MSc., Projects Coordinator, Kanahau Research and Conservation Facility, Utila, Honduras

John Kerry is one step closer to becoming secretary of State and managing the United States' economic 'frenemy'—China.
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee unanimously approved Kerry's nomination on Tuesday, which puts his candidacy before the entire chamber. Getting approval wasn't much of a heavy lift for Kerry, who has represented Massachusetts in the Senate since 1985 and just so happens to be chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee.
"More than ever, foreign policy is economic policy," Kerry told the committee. The Democrat added that his goal—and presumably that of his future boss President Obama—was to strengthen the relationship with China, even if that means some occasional bits of friction.
"China is, you know, the other sort of significant economy in the world and obviously has a voracious appetite for resources around the world, and we need to establish rules of the road that work for everybody," Kerry said.

Construction going on at this hotel. Breakfast area is temporarily located in a conference room. Not inviting at all. I'd wait until the renovation is completed before staying at this location. We did not learn of the construction until after we arrived, lobby around 430p was full of construction crew. One construction individual was swearing as we turned the corner for the elevator. I'm glad I didn't have my grandchildren with me.
I feel hotels should be required to advise of renovations and or constriction before they take your credit card information.
We have stayed at this location numerous times and it always has been wonderful. We will visit again, however I will inquire in the future before confirming reservation about renovations.

message from the president
Dear AMAC Members and Friends:
Recently we witnessed a momentous event with the opening of the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC). Called "a museum that seeks to understand American history through the lens of the African American experience," the NMAAHC helps us all understand what it means to be an American. It reminds us of the strength and survival of a people who are "optimistic, spiritual and resilient."
AMAC celebrates these very American values every day. Throughout our organization's history we have seen proof of these qualities reflected in AMAC members of all cultures. We are proud of our stellar membership and we enjoy highlighting their successes at every opportunity.
In my message today, I want to shine the spotlight on AMAC member Thompson Hospitality, the largest minority-owned food service, and one of the largest retail food and facilities management companies in the country. Among its facilities are restaurants in airports all across the country.
Thompson has been awarded a 10 year contract to provide food at the NMAAHC. The contract is in partnership with Restaurant Associates, which runs most of the cafes on Smithsonian properties.
"We can promise you that no one will ever leave the Sweet Home Café at NMAAHC hungry," Benita Thompson-Byas, Senior Vice President of Joint Ventures for Thompson told me.
She also said that when the ribbon was cut at the Café opening, there was not a dry eye in the house.
Chef Carla Hall has crafted a menu that reflects the history of African American culture as well as new more healthy classics, Benita noted. "Our food reflects history, culture, family, struggle, truth, endurance, and memory. And, it tastes good too."
She's right! The Café has been getting rave reviews. Take a look at this one: http://theundefeated.com/features/sweet-home-cafe-national-museum-of-african-american-history-culture/
Congratulations Thompson Hospitality and the Thompson family. We wish you good luck and continued success!

catalyst Award winner courtney thornton
For Courtney Thornton, winning an AMAC Catalyst Award has special meaning and poignancy. The award helps her to carry a torch that a mentor and dear friend passed to her more than 18 years ago.
Thornton is an attorney who, since 2014, has served as Vice President of Partner Relations and Business Diversity for the Hudson Group, a travel retail powerhouse. She manages diversity and business partner relationships across the country for the company.
But, before joining Hudson, Thornton served as In-House Legal Counsel and Deputy Director of Legal Affairs to the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport for 16 years.
"When I started at the airport, I was in my 20s," she recalls. "I'd practiced law for a few years in various capacities, but this was a big responsibility. I relished the challenge."
At that time, Justice Revius O. Ortique, Jr. was serving as Chairman of the New Orleans Aviation Board which oversees the airport. Ortique, who died in 2008 at age 84, was winding down a distinguished career as a public servant, with a long list of "firsts" under his belt. Among many other achievements, he was the first black member of the Louisiana State Bar Association's House of Delegates; the first black Civil District Court judge; and the first African American to win election to the state Supreme Court.
Ortique took Thornton under his wing and shared with her his passion for equal opportunity advocacy.
"First thing, he insisted that I attend a conference in Washington, DC for AMAC," she recalls. "He told me that this was an organization that was doing great work leveling the playing field for minorities in the aviation industry."
Over the years, Thornton's commitment to AMAC grew and evolved. She served on the Board for four years as Southwest Regional Director, helped bring the annual conference to New Orleans after Katrina in 2010, and served as AMAC's 2015 National Conference Chair in Fort Lauderdale.
Meanwhile, she was gaining visibility and credibility as a savvy and assertive industry lawyer who didn't shy away from advocating for small businesses at the New Orleans airport. She not only had the skill set and training to play that role, but, she says, "I was passionate about building relationships and opening lines of communication for the good of all."
Hudson operates numerous retail establishments at the airport and her energy and successes did not go unnoticed by the company's leadership. They invited her to apply for the position she now fills.
"I was attracted to the company not only because Hudson Group is the best retail concession operator in the industry, but because I respected the company's powerful record of giving back to the communities in which they do business, like New Orleans. Hudson Group has an impressive track record for corporate social responsibility," she says. "I knew I could count on them to support my work on behalf of small businesses nationally."
And, it was a position that allowed her to fulfill her commitment to her mentor, Ortique. "I felt like I was following in his footsteps as an activist on behalf of equality," she says.
Thornton received the 2016 AMAC Chairman's Award. This award honors a change agent from inside or outside the organization who has helped AMAC transform itself by focusing on such matters as organizational effectiveness, improvement, and development.
"Many years ago Justice Ortique was honored by an AMAC award," Thornton notes. "My receiving this honor brings us full circle."

AMAC Issues Request for Examples or Documents
Used to Pre-Qualify Contractors
AMAC is seeking examples and/or documents used for a pre-qualification process from both airports and contractors.
We are looking for documents that can assist in improving the language for a pre-proposal process. Please either forward documents or links to documents that can assist our efforts to email@example.com.
In an effort to identify the most responsive and qualified contractor or service provider to bid or propose on airport projects, some of the airports have used a pre-qualification process.
In the early days of the DBE/ACDBE (formerly M/WBE) program, the pre-qualification process was one method airport management used to assess the completeness and quality of the prime proposer's response to inclusion of women and minorities in their proposal. The method of pre-qualifying addressed the airport's concern that a lower bidder may not be selected if their response to participation of women and minorities was incomplete or poorly structured.
In effect, the two-step process permitted the airport to affirm that all those approved in the first phase, an acceptable DBE/ACDBE plan, would be permitted to propose in the second phase – the dollar amount.
From time-to-time airports also use a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) process. The RFQ process has permitted the airport to assess which proposers are qualified to propose on certain projects.
Thank you in advance for your assistance with this urgent matter!

Sexual harassment and assault can happen anywhere, but another layer of complexity is added onto an already difficult situation when students are confronted with these issues while studying off-campus. We hope that thinking through the topics described below will help you to make safe and informed decisions while abroad. It is important to recognize, however, that even if you follow every recommendation, sexual harassment and assault can occur.
What Others Perceive
One challenge students may encounter abroad is how others perceive them. Our nationality, gender, sexual orientation and other aspects of who we are may lead others in the host culture to make assumptions or misread our desires.
Before you leave, talk with others about what local beliefs and stereotypes may apply to you in the host country. Some helpful resources include past program participants and faculty with regional experience. Upon arrival, continue the conversation with program staff, local peers, etc. Understanding how others interpret your presence and your actions will help you communicate more effectively in the host culture.
What We Perceive
Studying abroad requires learning new ways of communicating. Non--verbal communication – the way we dress, where we choose to spend time, the ways in which we move our body – is important to keep in mind. Observe your local peers to understand what messages you may be communicating to others intentionally or unintentionally.
In the United States, people generally speak frankly and openly. This is not necessarily the case elsewhere. In other parts of the world, people may communicate based on societal expectations, even if the message does not reflect their actual opinion. Because of this, misunderstandings may occur with potential sexual partners. In many societies, it is unacceptable to show interest in a sexual relationship, particularly for women. Because potential partners will often say "no" to sexual advances, even when interested, prospective partners often disregard what is said. Saying "no" does not ensure that the other person understands "no." Talk about this with people you trust – local peers, friends, home stay family members, program staff, etc. If necessary, devise a plan to communicate "no" when the word itself is not enough.
What We Can Do
Here are some specific things we can do to promote clear communication and personal safety:
Acknowledge what factors put us at risk:
- New to the host country and may not speak the local language well
- Traveling to new places, usually by public transportation, and meeting new people
- Curiosity about the host culture
- High visibility in the host culture
- Lack of knowledge about danger cues and how to effectively communicate our desires
Inform ourselves
- Learn about behavior of local peers. How do our peers interact with potential partners, dress, etc.?
- Are there places we should avoid? Does this depend on the time of day?
- What is considered "normal" behavior between men and women our age?
Reduce our risk
- Establish relationships with hosts, neighbors and program staff
- Notify program staff of travel plans
- Travel with a friend and restrict night travel
- Project certainty of route i.e. look like you know where you're going instead of looking like you're lost
- Carry only sufficient amounts of cash in a safe place (money belt)
- Be aware of surroundings. Demonstrate vigilance or "street smarts"
- Moderate alcohol consumption Choose taxis and drivers carefully
Specific Ways to Avoid Unwanted Sexual Interactions
Many students experience some form of unwanted sexual attention while abroad. Some may encounter sexual harassment; others may be raped or sexually assaulted. Despite our best efforts, these unfortunate events may occur. This is true whether we are at home, on Macalester's campus, or studying abroad. Here a few tips to keep in mind:
Avoid eye contact and/or smiling – Many interpret eye contact or smiling as an invitation to interact.
Avoid engaging in conversation when necessary – Sometimes ignoring a person or pretending you don't understand what they're saying are the simplest ways to get someone to leave you alone. Even saying, "I'm not interested," is a form of interaction.
Mimic your peers – Observing how your local peers interact will help you to understand what is "normal" in the host culture.
Buddy system – It may sound trite, but being with a friend can help deter unwanted advances and situations. This may be particularly true when walking in public places or when alcohol enters the picture (e.g. night clubs, parties, etc.).
Listen to your instincts – We may try to second guess our instincts and tell ourselves, "This doesn't seem right to me, but maybe it's normal here." While we should try to adapt to local cultures, we should not do so at the expense of our own well--being and safety. If you feel that you're in an unsafe situation, get yourself out of there.
Please keep in mind that even if you follow every piece of advice exactly, sexual assault can occur. If you are a victim of sexual assault or harassment while abroad, we encourage you to share your experience with someone. For many people, the first step in the healing process is to talk about it.
From our experience, most students have extremely positive interactions while abroad. Keep yourself as safe as you can while making the most out of your semester.
Even while you are abroad, you remain an important member of the Macalester community. You can always contact one of the people or offices listed in the Resources section below to help guide you in your decisions or support if you should experience sexual assault or harassment.

The cop thinks he's a very tough guy. But he's about to be broken. The masked wants to make the cop embarrass himself by laughing, giggling and begging like a little bitch. So he tickles him. He oils the cop's pits, foot and stomach to make his fingers slippery and relentlessly tickles him. The officer tries to maintain his composure and succeeds at first, but the man wears him down and soon he's twisting and squealing, laughing in a pathetic, high pitched, panicked voice, sounding like a real lady, so breathless he can't even beg for mercy.

Malta newspapers in review
The following are the page one stories on the Maltese newspapers today.
Times of Malta says the jobs scheme operated by the GWU after a contract with JobsPlus may be stopped if the union's foundation does not make a profit.
l-orizzont says the Archbishop's attack on the GWU about the scheme was 'malicious'.
In-Nazzjon reports how workers in the GWU scheme are paid less than workers doing the same work, but the employment minister had said workers have dignity.
The Malta Independent says a geologist has insisted that no one should walk on or swim under the Azure Window in Gozo.

Consolidated Fire takes as good as it gets from cities
February 5, 2013
Soon to be no longer an employee of Nevada County Consolidated Fire Department, I feel the need to freely comment on some of the comments made by the NCCFD Board Chairman (in the Jan. 26 edition of The Union).
What I find interesting is that while trying to rile up the NCCFD tax constituents regarding subsidizing the two cities, the reality is they help us as much as we help them.
If NCCFD pulls its employees out of Grass Valley Fire Department Station 1 and Nevada City Station 54, NCCFD will have to staff their Station 87 with those same employees. There is no savings to the NCCFD or its tax constituents by doing this.
The GVFD staffs their Station 2 with 3/0 staffing. While they may have to drop it to 2/0 (like all of NCCFD) and move an employee over to Station 1, they could provide essential fire and medical services without the services of NCCFD.
(I)t is my recommendation that NCCFD stop using strong arm tactics and agree to a Joint Powers Agreement with the two cities …
What all of Greenhorn Road needs to understand is Nevada City's Station 54 is the station that is dispatched to our area. If NCCFD pulls out of Station 54, we will have service coming from Station 86 on Banner Mountain. This will add 5-7 minutes to a life-saving response.
If at the same time the Station 86 area has a medical emergency (happens more often then you think), Station 84 would be responding, adding 5-7 minutes to a life-saving response.
Who is left to cover the Station 84 area? This is not a good thing for the tax constituents of NCCFD.
Since a structure fire is required to have 12-15 firefighters, NCCFD will also be calling for mutual aid. NCCFD does not have the ability to down-staff all its stations for that many firefighters. If NCCFD pulls out of the two cities, they will have on any given day 10 firefighters on duty spread out over five stations. Do the math.
The cities would like a Joint Power Agreement and NCCFD wants a Joint Powers Authority. The NCCFD Chairman stated "A JPA is not acceptable."
Why is it not acceptable? Is it the word "agreement" rather than "authority" that is at the heart of the matter?
A joint powers agreement (JPA) is a formal, legal agreement between two or more public agencies that share a common power and want to jointly implement programs, build facilities or deliver services.
Officials from those public agencies formally approve a cooperative arrangement. With a joint powers agreement, a member agency agrees to be responsible for delivering a service on behalf of the other member agencies.
A joint powers agency or joint powers authority (JPA) is a new, separate government organization created by the member agencies, but is legally independent from them. Like a joint powers agreement (in which one agency administers the terms of the agreement), a joint powers agency shares powers common to the member agencies, and those powers are outlined in the joint powers agreement.
I highly suggest you read "Governments Working Together, A Citizen's Guide to Joint Powers Agreements". http://senweb03.senate.ca.gov/committee/standing/GOVERNANCE/GWTFinalversion2.pdf.
Having been intimately involved in the inner working of NCCFD over the past eight years and an additional four years prior to that with 49ER FPD, it is my recommendation that NCCFD stop using strong arm tactics and agree to a Joint Powers Agreement with the two cities as that would be for the good of all tax constituents of the two cities and NCCFD.

Palestine and Israel may have reached a ceasefire agreement, but the feeling of fear and intimidation following six days of massive bombardment still remains in the air. This feeling of fear is quite clearly demonstrated by an image that was recently posted by a Redditorjonscotchon the website.
There are multiple interpretations that can be made from the image. According to some the image shows a Palestinian kid dressed in bunny costume hiding from Israeli Defense Forcessoldiers. On the other hand, some claim that the child is trying to play hide and seek with the soldiers.
One of the redditors named jaclarcame up with the explanation that the image is quite old and from a place which is called 'Eastern Prayer Road' in Hebron/West Bank. He also claimed that the image shows a Jewish kid dressed in a Purim costume.' Others were more willing to side with the Palestinians.
One of them commented, 'Yes, because that's what the IDF does. Hunt down children. I cannot fathom your mindset, where you look at that picture and think "OMG! JEWS ARE HUNTING CHILDREN.'
Another redditorAtroxMaveniasaid, 'This title is fucking moronic. Unless you have some source on this in fact being a Palestinian child, don't make up nonsense propaganda.'

The event on the 29th April will take place in the venue's Jerwood Hall. The one-day conference will look into the future of social work and will deliver a variety of speakers who have worked in and around the industry.
LSO St Luke's Centre Manager, Alison Thompson, says: "We are delighted to be hosting the annual BASW conference. BASW is such a meaningful organisation and it is wonderful that by providing LSO St Luke's we can contribute to their cause."
Guy Shennan, BASW UK Chair, adds: "I am very much looking forward to a day when the British Association of Social Workers (BASW) will be looking to the future of social work and the future of the professional Association for the UK. The scene will be set against the superb backdrop of LSO St Luke's, London. We have high quality speakers in Brid Featherstone, Vasilios Ioakimidis and Faye Wilson, who in diverse ways will be conveying messages of hope and possibility. Members will then have the opportunity to help shape BASW's 2020 vision, thereby strengthening this independent voice of the social work profession. It's a really exciting day in prospect."
