In a Bloomberg report McConnell basically rejected every major policy that Trump ran on, including building the wall, major tax cuts, significant budget cuts, and even rejecting a boost to infrastructure spending. From Bloomberg: Even before the Comey memo was reported, McConnell laid out an agenda that explicitly rejected more and more of Trump's major priorities.

Looks like Juventus and Chelsea are on a run to take each others' players next transfer window. Latest reports from Tuttosport suggest that Antonio Conte will be rebuilding the whole Chelsea squad next season, thus, the axe will surely fall on a lot of Chelsea players, including Oscar. The Old Lady outfit are following Chelsea's 24-year-old, £24million Brazilian midfielder whose contract ends in 2019 with the Blues.
Oscar has consistently risen to fame since he joined the club in 2012 from Internacional. The Brazilian playmaker is a very mature player and has an acute understanding of the game. Oscar is not one of the most aggressive players but surely does know how to control the game.
Oscar has managed 739 passes this season with 81% passing accuracy, 73% of which are forward passes*. It won't be hard for a player like him to fit in Juventus' dynamic style of play.
Oscar has not been very happy at the Stamford Bridge this season. No surprise, The Special one left many players unhappy at the club, compelling Conte, the person expected to manage Chelsea next season, to slash many players and get fresh legs on the pitch. Juventus are most likely to have what they want.

The other day, apropos of nothing and seemingly out of nowhere my son asked, "Hey dad, did you know that if you scrape the frosting off of a cupcake it becomes a muffin? It just doesn't taste as good." That may be so, but just try putting some frosting on a bran muffin and selling it at a youth group fundraiser as a cupcake.
I have to admit I've been disappointed in my weight loss the last two weeks and pondering what may have changed. I went home last evening a little bit angry with myself and ate that way. I attacked an innocent spinach salad as if it had insulted my mother. "Take that," I said as I stabbed a cherry tomato that had been provoking me. "Hey chicken strip, you wanna piece of me? Don't you eyeball me olive," I snarled.
It occurred to me on the way home from this morning's workout at Spiece that it was OK to be disappointed but I needn't be angry, I just need to isolate the issue(s) and address it (them). So here is what I have surmised. While remaining under my calorie goal over the last couple of weeks I have been bumping up against the maximum more frequently. Maybe I'm not drinking as much water as I had been or need to either, but as far as getting additional exercise, I've been doing that. Trust the program. Trust but verify. What's different? Hmmm.
Over the weekend I constructed a small storage shed for my beloved riding mower. Ahhh, there's nothing like the smell of freshly mown grass wafting up to olfactory bulb of the cowboy in the saddle of a finely tuned Simplicity. Wait a minute, could that be it? Could the difference in the last few weeks have been the result of mowing the lawn sitting on my tush versus going bipedal? Has the debate been settled in the favor of the Toro? I don't know, but I suppose it couldn't hurt to try again. Either way the grass will need to be mowed again soon. Perhaps I'll try scraping the frosting off that cupcake.

The Dichotomy That Is Israel
Blum, Albert A., Contemporary Review
THE first time I visited Israel was shortly after the end of the Six-Day War. My host, proud of the victory, took me to the Golan Heights. I noticed, with admiration, the difference between the land that had once been Syrian and the land that continued to be Israeli: the former was brown, with no vegetation; the latter was green, replete with vegetation. But I also noticed something else: the land so lovingly cared for and so bitterly conquered was covered with garbage, casually dropped by Israeli tourists.
This is an example of the dichotomy between the dreams and the reality that is Israel which has also troubled me during my subsequent visits and assignments in Israel and which trouble me far more today. And I am not alone. I increasingly have company among other Jews in the diaspora as well as among Israelis themselves.
I had become conscious of the dichotomous nature of Israel long before there was an Israel. While eating my salami sandwiches in the cafeteria at the City College of New York (an urban campus for bright students), much of my time was spent arguing with a host of different types of young Zionists who also ate their salami sandwiches in the different alcoves of the cafeteria. I could not understand how this group of idealists could talk about socialism, the brotherhood of man, and the co-operative and loving nature of the kibbutzes and, at the same time, preach a fervent nationalism -- demanding for themselves a piece of land for which they had a deep and anthropomorphic feeling -- namely, Palestine, but which already had other people living on it who did not want to leave it.
I was unimpressed by the Zionists' nationalistic arguments but, at the same time, was impressed by their idealism and sincerity, and by the urgency of the case, given Hitler's holocaust. The arguments for the state of Israel thus had my grudging sympathy until its formation, and then, after 1948, my grudging support.
From afar, I watched with growing admiration what appeared to be the fulfilment of the dreams of my former classmates. Israel had become the haven for the victims of the holocaust. A democratic socialist movement was bringing equality to Israel's inhabitants; its kibbutzes were experimenting with shared relationships and shared outputs; its land was changing colour as it became fertile despite its being an island of democracy surrounded by people dedicated to its destruction. And these enemies were and still are authoritarian (usually too inefficient to be totalitarian), corrupt, and unconcerned with the real needs of the masses of their people for food and democracy. Israel became the Arab leaders' opiate for its masses and thus relieved them from the need to do anything that might raise economic and political standards of their people and thus weaken their power.
But then I went to Israel for the first time in 1968 and my sense of Israel's dichotomous nature returned. I have been back for varying periods of time since then, although not recently, and my troubled feelings concerning Israel's confused purposes persist. In fact, they have steadily become even more pronounced.
I started this discussion with a minor example -- garbage at the Golan Heights. What troubled me as I saw this junk, as it has at other times when I have had to wade through soda cans and banana peels, for example, while walking through Tiberius toward the Sea of Galilee was the intense love of the land that I felt as I talk with Israelis but who, at the same time, did not hesitate to soil that very land with the rubbish they casually drop on it.
I became aware later of another dichotomy. This one deals with learning and scholarship. Israel is a good antidote for a Jewish boy who grew up in New York of immigrant and uneducated parents, was placed in special schools for bright children, and went on to City College and Columbia University. And who did he find in these places set aside for bright youths but mainly Jewish boys and girls, from similar backgrounds, who not only shared his love for Kosher salami but also for books, learning, music, politics, and arguments. …

Planet of the Apes
1968 science fiction monkey movie
Rating: 16/20
Plot: A spaceship from earth crashes on the titular planet where intelligent simians rule and mute people are just around to have their brains experimented upon. The lone survivor among the crew tries to figure out what's going on and escape from the apes' clutches.
There were a few different posters to choose from including one that had a giant Tom Hanks head, but I had to go with this one that spoils one of the most iconic endings in movie history. They might as well have included a tagline, something like "The maniacs blew it up! Moses was on Earth the whole time! #punked." Of course, they wouldn't use a hashtag, and the poster doesn't spoil anything because everybody--even people who haven't seen this movie--know the ending. And that's an iconic ending, ladies and gentlemen--one that you know even if you haven't seen the film. What other endings would be in there? King Kong? Anything else? This is co-written by Rod Serling which makes sense because it's a lot like an extended Twilight Zone episode except with color and less ventriloquist dummies and no guy with slick hair introducing the whole thing. The movie's not close to perfect. The sets are cheap; the apes, at least when you watch them from the 21st Century, look ridiculous; there's an awful lot that happens from Point A to Point B that really doesn't matter at all; and Charlton Heston can't act. That's right--I said it. Charlton Heston is awful in this movie, awful to the point where he's actually pretty hilarious. And here's a big shocker for you--his character wanted a gun in this movie. But boy, you really feel Heston's character's pain on that ship when he says, "I feel lonely." I long, by the way, for a time somewhere in the near future when smoking cigars on a spaceship makes sense. I don't know why NASA's not made that happen yet. Also, on the ship, there's a great scene where Heston gives the snoozing Dianne Stanley, the only female member of the crew, a lascivious look before he climbs into his little glass thing to start working on his beard. What a tough image to wake up to, by the way--a bearded Dianne Stanley. She was a looker when he turned in and he probably, knowing what we know about his character, had X-rated dreams about her, but he wakes up and she's got a beard. I'm not a scientist or anything, but I'm wondering if Stanley's beard makes any sense at all here. Also--shouldn't Heston and his two males buddies have had more beard when they woke up? Later, we get to hear a whole bunch of lines from Heston that only Charlton Heston could have gotten away with. And he shouldn't have gotten away with them.
"We're in the soup."
"That's when the groceries run out." (I have my doubts that the word "groceries" will even exist in 2,000 years. I'm not a linguist or anything though.)
"There is only one reality left--we are here and we are now." (Ok, that one's not so bad. It sounds like something straight out of Yoda's diary or something actually.)
"To hell with the scarecrows!" (A line that leads to late-60's shaky cam and that skinny-dipping scene that you were wanting from the second this movie started. And yes, I played it back 12 times and never did see Heston's little pistol although the little Charlton had to have been close to making an on-screen appearance.)
"Take your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape!" (Yeah, I know that's as iconic as the ending of this movie. But think of how the line is delivered and then listen to most of Charlton Heston's other lines. Most of them are delivered with that identical tone. It's like Heston's got one gear in this movie.)
"It's a madhouse! A maaaaaaaaaaaaadhoooooooooooouuuuuuussssse!" (Beautiful.)
"You cut up his brain, you bloody baboon!"
Here's another question that I'll put here because I just thought of it--why don't the other human characters have beards? I'm not a scientist or a barber, so I really need somebody to explain that to me. Surely, they don't shave.
Back to Heston--the guy looks a little old in a few of the action shots. Of course, he was lying in a glass tube for a long time, so maybe there was some muscle atrophy. Watching him flee from the apes--clumsy themselves--or try to evade their nets is often a little embarrassing, especially with his nipples being as droopy as they are. He does get one great action shot where he kicks an ape off the stairs and then provides us with a taint shot while an awesome ape-kid exclaims, "Look! It's a man!" Heston's best scene, an epic moment that--to me, at least--is just as important as seeing that withered Statue of Liberty involves Heston laughing at a flag. The character's really kind of an asshole, isn't he? He's misanthropic, pervy (check out the scene where he's staring down cave people and looking slightly horny), and pessimistic. He reminds me of myself. And it turns out he's a Hoosier which sure makes me proud. Speaking of pervy, how about that Zira? And kinky! She's all about collars and leashes, and there's one scene where Heston is disrobed where Zira's nose twitches. Twitches with lust! Speaking of those monkeys--I know I sort of made fun of their appearance up there, and their clothing looks like it's made out of plastic like 1980's action figures' clothing. The monkey's sort of look like people wearing masks; however, I'll definitely take that over the CGI monkeys in that prequel, and I really hope that doesn't hurt Gollum's feelings. Or King Kong's. Zaius has a cool strut and an even cooler jacket. That's Maurice Evans, Hutch from Rosemary's Baby, a classically-trainer actor who did a bunch of Shakespeare but died being best known for playing an ape in a poop-colored jacket. Roddy McDowall's Cornelius might, if you'll excuse the hyperbole, be the greatest performance ever by a guy playing some kind of monkey. Really, I like most of what they do with the apes in this, definitely taking advantage of the absurdity of the idea to inject a little humor into the otherwise serious and depressing sci-fi movie. Their use of sugar as a reward for the humans is a perfect sneaky bit of satire. A very quick scene in a museum is kind of a neat touch. My favorite shot in this that doesn't involve the Statue of Liberty might be a shot of an ape sitting back, cross-legged and smoking. The first shot of the apes has them on horseback which reminded me of when I saw a monkey riding on a dog at a rodeo, one of the highlights of my entire life. I'll tell you what though: Those pictures where the apes are posing with people they've hunted down are bound to piss off people on social media. I thought a see-hear-speak-no-evil pose of the tribunal was a little too cheesy. I also sort of hate Dr. Zira's nephew Lucius. He pops in the movie like he doesn't belong, almost like the character was added because Heston or director Franklin Schaffner had a friend who wanted his son to have a part. Lucius can't even walk right and says stupid things like, "What do you expect--an ape's new suit?" What a dumbass character. Of course, the best character of all is Nova played by the lovely Linda Harrison. See, I'm not even sure why Charlton Heston spends this movie growling all those lines at the apes. What does he have to complain about? He gets this great-looking gal to spoon with, and although it's not shown, I assume he hits that at some point. Of course, there are the constant threats of castration and all the hose-spraying, both which could be boner kills.
Some of the sets look silly in this. Do they live in caves? What's with the doors made out of fake wood? However, I do think the "scarecrows" are a cool image, and the spaceship scenes that make it seem like Heston and his buddies are in a discotheque are cool. Oh, and I like how they check the atmosphere on some spaceship device that has a barbershop pole inside it. I like the spaceship crash scene, but let's think about the setting a little bit. Now, I'm not a geologist or anything, but I can't figure out how the landscape would change so much that New York would be a desert in that amount of time. Would the Statue of Liberty really be next to a big rock cliff? Am I missing some science here? I also like the Jerry Goldsmith score, weird sort-of-orchestral music that sometimes incorporates monkey sounds.
This has a lot of B-movie elements and definitely isn't perfect, but it's stood the test of time, survived a bunch of ridiculous sequels, and is filled with classic movie moments. I think I will watch some of the sequels before that new prequel arrives on dvd. I might have to watch that first prequel, too. This is a franchise that has interesting stories to tell even when they're told imperfectly.
Here's a hint for those of you who got this far: This isn't part of the Mystery Fest, but I think I could have legally included it. Actually, I could do anything I wanted because nobody cares. But this fits in a strange way. It begs the question--are there Zubaz two-thousand years in the future? If not, I definitely don't want to be around.

There is no way this movie should work, and there is no way Ben Hur/Moses should be a part of it, but it does and he is. Heston took on some REALLY strange roles around this time but the weird thing is they work and the movies are iconic. It's like he took them on a dare or lost a bet with his agent, and then must have been shocked that he ever acted again.
"Planet of the Apes" is ridiculously watchable. Part of it is sheer campiness, but mostly because it is just fun. You never know what's going to happen, and everyone plays it so straight. What a bizarre idea, but at the end you still feel moved and your thoughts are provoked. I would give this a 17 just for the audacity of the concept which unbelievably is kind of believable.

So you think you want to cyclocross...
park chambers
With 'cross season just around the corner, we reached out to Katy Salinas of Swift Racing for some pointers for beginners interested in trying cyclocross. The Blind Date at the Dairy (Wednesday nights starting September 7) is a race series that attracts riders of all skill levels with an exciting on- and off-road course at the Alpenrose Dairy (and home of the velodrome). Blind Date and Swift share our love of bicycles and the community they can build, and we're proud to continue sponsoring both organizations in the coming season!
So, what is cyclocross?
· Cyclocross is a form of bicycle racing on a course with tight corners, obstacles, varying terrain. The race is measured in time instead of distance - racers complete as many laps in the race time as possible.
Can anyone race cyclocross?
· Just about! You need a bicycle, helmet, race entry fee, and the ability to ride for 30-45 minutes. If you have all of that and are ready to have fun, you can race cyclocross!
Can I race any bicycle?
· There is a type of bicycle specifically for cyclocross racing, but a mountain bike will also work.
Do I need to do anything special to get my bike ready to race?
· Basically, make sure it's in good working condition: tires inflated, drive train and brakes work. your local bike shop can get you squared away, but don't wait until the last minute. Also, 21st Avenue mechanics will be at Alpenrose for the Blind Date series for your race-day needs.
· Remove the commuting gear (racks, fenders).
· Mount a front light if you are racing in the evening.
So how do I enter a race?
· Check the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association calendar for race dates and info.
· You need to buy a license—annual or single day. A 2016 Cyclocross membership is only $20, or $5 for single day.
· Register at the race or online (this involves a waiver and entry fee)
And it's race day! I'm super nervous, anything else I should know?
· Come well fed and hydrated so your body is ready to race.
· Pin your race number on your jersey according to the model at registration.
· Find out where the start is and get there about 10 minutes before your race.
· Almost all the racers want you to have as much fun as they do, so please feel welcome to ask questions.
And for any beginning women interested, there will be a skills clinic offered before each of the first four Blind Dates, 5 PM at Alpenrose. Look for the Swift Racing tent and get ready to have fun!

investigation start!
My first impression is, this train leads to the land of the dead, you get a train ticket when you die, and Marietta is about to run into some problems because she's not qualified to be a passenger.
But if it were me, I'd be DYING to ride such a fancy-looking train
Heh, I see what you did there.
Does she have ticket?
Not that we've seen so far, but she does have a soul which they can take as payment :-s
the Passaway Express is such a great name for a ghost train
A name which screams "Uh Oh!!!"
i think you forgot to add the "to" in the last panel, kay.
Pretty sure it's correct as-is.
It's correct because it says "aboard" which replaces the "to"
Are those floating orb things the tickets? How do you stamp a ghost? I guess you have to be a ghost too?
Dude that transition is BEAUTIFUL. The serious tone vs Marietta's face is A+
YOU MESSED UP THE DEATH PUNS! your DEAD to me!
Whoops auto correct.That was a GHASTLY mistake.
That's okay. As long as it's in the SPIRIT of good fun
Looks like she's in the DEAD CENTER of the situation, dontcha think?
Your killing me with that pun.
The regret suddenly sets in.
Regret level…rising….
I like how that guy's ghost suitcase is phasing through the railing
Call of the Sentinel
Cucumber Quest
Devil's Candy
Fauna Fairest
Glass Scientists
Last Halloween
Lost Nightmare
Not Drunk Enough
Solving Xandra

IRVING, TEXAS -- Hair products shoved into a purse again and again.
A Chi flat iron hidden inside of a waist band all while employees at a Texas Armstrong Mcall were diverted.
"She was off filling her purse while he was chatting. The sad thing is that they used the little girl kind of as a pawn."
Jane Levinski is the store manager that could be seen in the surveillance video.
She said the family was friendly.
"They were in a couple of times," she recalled.
But they never bought anything.
"The third time that they came in my employee said, 'Something is wrong.'"
Managers said they noticed the product was flying off the shelves but weren't sure how. That is until they checked the cameras.
"I was sick. You feel like a fool, because here you have chatted and been kind and they've robbed you blind."
More than $1,000 worth on three different occasions.
Officer James McClelland said the trio is known to authorities as they hit possibly seven other stores dating back a year ago.
"There may be many more out there that we don't know about."
Authorities said they are concerned about the child's safety and behavior.
In one video, the little girl was seen taking product off the shelf and handing it to the woman.

In early November 2003 I paid a brief visit to Crater of Diamonds State Park near Murfreesboro AR (link). Visting the "Crater of Dirt" was a bit of a waste of time and money; I went there on the state highways and if I'd just gone from Hot Springs south along the interstate I could have saved myself at least an hour. The park is basically just a big field that looks like it's been plowed. As in fact it has, by thousands of visitors who come here looking for diamonds. While the rules and regulations might have changed, at the time they were just charging a $5 entrance fee, which let you go in and dig to your heart's content. I don't recall it at the time, but a recent news report says you can't sell any diamonds you find (link).... (read more)

Africa is home to only one fully fledged democracy
The African continent is home to only one fully fledged democracy, Mauritius, according to a recently released index from the Economist Intelligence Unit. The list, which takes into account things like electoral procedures, civil liberties, and political participation, classified seven African countries as "flawed democracies," 13 as "hybrid regimes," and 23 as authoritarian regimes.
Meanwhile, North Korea, Syria, Chad and the Central African Republic were among the EIU's authoritarian regimes.
Sub-Saharan Africa's overall "democracy" score on the index has remained flat for the last five years, according to the EIU index. Improvements in political participation and frequency of elections have been counteracted by crackdowns on civil liberties and media suppression, the report notes.
Though democratic elections were held in almost a dozen African countries last year, most citizens still see their governments as corrupt. African countries were among the lowest ranked on a new corruption index by Transparency International. Sub-Saharan Africa averaged a score of 31 on a scale of 0 to 100 where 100 is seen as "very clean." The score, based on citizen attitudes, was much less than the global average of 43, and down from last year's score of 33.

SEGUROS "ILLIMANI" S.A., EMPRESA NACIONAL DE FUNDICIONES, DERBY Y CIA, INC. AND S.W. SHATTUCK CHEMICAL CO., PLAINTIFFS,v.M/V POPI P, HER ENGINES, BOILERS, ETC., NIMIPET CORP., LINEAS NAVIERAS BOLIVIANAS, COMPANIA SUD AMERICANA DE VAPORES AND CHILEAN LINE, INC., DEFENDANTS. COMPANIA SUD AMERICANA DE VAPORES AND LINEAS NAVIERAS BOLIVIANAS, DEFENDANTS AND THIRD PARTY PLAINTIFFS, V. UNIVERSAL MARITIME SERVICE CORP., THIRD PARTY DEFENDANT.
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Milton Pollack, Senior District Judge.
DECISION and OPINION
Having heard and seen the witnesses and considered all
documentary evidence and having evaluated all of the facts and
circumstances herein, I decide and find as follows:
The Carriage of Goods by Sea Act (COGSA) 46 U.S.C.App. §
1300, et seq., applies to the shipment and the loss of the tin
ingots involved therefrom.
The shipment could not be mistaken to be other than a
shipment of 600 packages or bundles into which 8,996 ingots
were packaged. The bundles or packages, each consisting of 15
ingots (except one package of 11), were each separately bound
by steel straps. The two containers herein involved 67 packages
or bundles containing 1,005 ingots, packaged as mentioned, and
were shipped that way. The bills of lading and their content
must be read and understood in the light of the clear intent
that 600 bundles in total were involved which is supported by
the collateral evidence that the quantity references in the
bills of lading were intended to embrace packages or bundles
wrapping 15 ingots per package or bundle, and individual ingots
were not intended to be individual, separate packages.
The ingots were aboard the rail cars referred to in the
evidence; were initially stored in Warehouse No. 5 at Arica,
Chile; were packaged into 600 bundles or packages; were
delivered to and stored in steel strapped packaged or bundled
groups and placed in 18 containers; all bundles or packages
were separately strapped with steel bands around each bundle;
were all loaded on the Popi at Arica, Chile; remained intact
during its voyage to New York; were off-loaded from the ship
intact and placed intact in the custody and control of the
stevedore, Universal Maritime Services Corp.; that 67 packages
of ingots shipped and so off-loaded involving a total of 1,005
ingots were found to be missing; the container had been opened
and invaded without breaking the seals; the packages of ingots
were removed and not delivered to the consignees in New York as
a result of the fault of the stevedore. From the evidence
presented and the legitimate inferences therefrom, I find that
the plaintiffs and third-party plaintiffs have sustained the
burden of proof that the removal of the ingots occurred while
the containers were in the custody and control of the
stevedores. The evidence of the third-party defendant did not
satisfactorily or credibly meet or overcome the prima facie
proof of the third-party plaintiffs that the loss occurred
while the containers were in the possession or under the
control of the stevedores. The issues of credibility involved
with respect to the loss are resolved in favor of the
plaintiffs and third-party plaintiffs against the third-party
1. Jurisdiction
The claims against the ship, carriers and charterers fall
within the scope of this Court's admiralty jurisdiction.
See 28 U.S.C. § 1333(1).*fn1 However, any claim against
Universal Maritime arose while the cargo was on land and is
grounded on state law and is not within federal admiralty
jurisdiction. See, Roco Carriers Ltd. v. M/V Nurnberg Express,
899 F.2d 1292, 1294 (2d Cir. 1990). The validity of
jurisdiction over a third-party defendant is grounded in the
concept of pendent party jurisdiction. The Second Circuit has
recently reaffirmed the availability of pendent party
jurisdiction in admiralty cases even in light of the Supreme
Court's holding in Finley v. United States, ___ U.S. ___, 109
S.Ct. 2003, 104 L.Ed.2d 593 (1989).
In light of the broadly worded jurisdictional
grant over admiralty cases and the "strong
admiralty policy in favor of providing
efficient procedures for resolving maritime
disputes," In re Oil Spill, 699 F.2d [909] at 914
[(7th Cir. 1983)], we see no reason at this
juncture to depart from the established rule of
this Circuit that pendent party jurisdiction is
available in the unique area of admiralty.
Roco Carriers, at 1297.
a. Applicability
The Carriage of Goods by Sea Act (COGSA), 46 U.S.C. App.
§§ 1300-1315, governs the rights of the parties while the cargo
is on the ship.
The plaintiffs argue that COGSA should not limit its recovery
in this case if the loss occurred before loading or after
Paragraph 2(a) of the bill of lading states:
If this Bill of Lading is issued exclusively for
the carriage of goods by sea the carrier shall be
responsible subject to the provisions of the
Carriage of Goods by Sea Act of the United States,
approved April 16, 1936 in case of a carriage of
goods from ports of the United States, or, in case
of a carriage from ports of Canada, subject to the
provisions of the Water Carriage of Goods Act of
Canada, approved August 1, 1936, and the said
provisions shall be deemed to be incorporated
herein. The provisions stated in the said Acts
shall also govern before the goods are loaded on
and after they are discharged from the ship,
however, restricted to the time when the goods are
in the actual custody of the carrier. The carrier
shall not be liable in any capacity whatsoever
while the goods are not in his actual custody.
Plaintiffs argue that the bill of lading only extends COGSA to
cover these periods in voyages from the United States.
When read in conjunction with COGSA, however, it is clear
that ¶ 2(a) extends coverage on all voyages. COGSA requires
bills of lading for voyages from the United States to contain a
statement expressly including COGSA's terms.*fn2 The first
sentence of ¶ 2(a) does exactly this. The second sentence then
states at what other times COGSA will apply. The plaintiffs'
argument that the first sentence modifies the second is not
persuasive. The second sentence states that COGSA "shall also
govern" before loading and after discharge. (Emphasis added).
It is an additional term, not one dependent on the sentence
before it.
The bills of lading also contain a so-called "Himalaya"
clause extending coverage to "servants, employees and agents of
the carrier as well as of such independent contractors
(including their servants, employees and agents) whose services
the carrier from time to time may engage in the operation of
the vessel or any other means of transportation including
loading, discharging and all services in connection herewith."
Stevedores are included in the term "independent contractor."
Whether a bill of lading extends limitations of
liability to stevedores depends on whether "the
clarity of the language used expresses such to be
the understanding of the contracting parties."
Robert C. Herd & Co. v. Krawill Machinery Corp.,
359 U.S. [297] at 305 [79 S.Ct. 766, 771, 3 L.Ed.2d
820 (1959)] . . . Two circuits have recently held
that a bill of lading mentioning independent
contractors clearly includes stevedores. Bernard
Screen Printing Corp. v. Meyer Line, 464 F.2d 934,
936 n. 1 (2d Cir. 1972), cert. denied, 410 U.S. 910
[93 S.Ct. 966, 35 L.Ed.2d 272] . . . (1973);
Seacrest Machine Corp. v. S.S. Tiber, 450 F.2d 285,
287 (5th Cir. 1971). The language of the district
court in Bernard Screen is instructive:
To exclude "stevedores," who are independent
contractors, from the scope of the more
inclusive term would, in effect, be holding that
parties by using
the more inclusive term had accomplished the
opposite result.

Edinburgh have confirmed full-back Glenn Bryce will join the capital club at the start of the 2016/17 season on a two-year deal.
Following spells at English Championship sides Jersey and Doncaster Knights, the 24-year-old joined Glasgow Warriors as an Academy player at the start of the 2014/15 season.
A product of the Alloa, Stirling County and Heriot's clubs Bryce, who is also comfortable at centre and wing, joined the professional ranks with Glasgow at the start of this season, and has scored four tries in 13 appearances.
On signing with the capital club Alloa-born Bryce said: "I feel like the move to Edinburgh presents a real opportunity for me as a player. They're a club going in the right direction and are building and progressing each year.
"I've got some good mates at the club already, and they're always telling me how tight the Edinburgh group is, and that everyone works hard for each other. I'm looking forward to getting involved with the team and getting started."
The former Scotland U20 international joins a burgeoning wealth of young Scottish talent in an Edinburgh backline which already includes 19-year-old full back Blair Kinghorn and recently re-signed wingers Damien Hoyland (22) and Tom Brown (25). Joining the capital backs will be Bryce's team-mate, stand-off Duncan Weir, who is also set to make the move from west to east for next season.
Bryce said: "I'm ambitious and I want to be playing as much as I can, and I'm looking forward to a new challenge and pushing myself as an individual.
"I know Hodgey [Duncan Hodge] well through working with him at the Academy and the age-grade programme. He's a good coach and he's got an attacking mindset, which suits the type of game I like to play."
Head Coach Alan Solomons said: "We are delighted to welcome Glenn to the club. He is a talented young Scottish player, who, I have no doubt, will make his mark at Edinburgh."

'Publish and Perish' Forecast Under Patent Reform Act
By Mari Serebrov
Washington Editor
Washington Editor
Monday, August 27, 2012
Researchers who have acclimated to a publish-or-perish environment are in for a climate change when the first-to-file provision of the America Invents Act (AIA) settles over the land next March. At the front of that change is the Patent and Trademark Office's (PTO) proposed rule to expand the reach of prior art. If the rule is finalized, researchers who publish too soon before a patent application is filed could see the claims perish.

n Koers : Bulletin for Christian Scholarship = Koers : Bulletin vir Christelike Wetenskap - Philosophical foundations of Statistics
The epistemology of statistical science, Mauritz Van Aarde : review
This book is intended to be a contribution to the debate on the philosophical foundations of Statistics, a debate which has continued for more than a century and with many conflicting views. It has been said that the subject of Statistics suffers such strong divisions concerning its foundations because it is so close to the philosophy of knowledge. Indeed, Statistics is concerned with the very difficult and age old problem of obtaining valid knowledge from numerical data.

The Cranial Base Surgery Center at West Virginia University specializes in treating complex medical conditions involving lesions at the base of the skull. These include tumors, congenital anomalies, and infectious or inflammatory conditions. Because of the many important structures located in this area, cranial base lesions have long been some of the most difficult challenges for neurosurgeons and their patients.
Our surgeons are skilled in the most advanced techniques and the latest technologies, and we can offer help for conditions that previously may have been considered untreatable. We take a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment, bringing together the insights of neurosurgeons, otolaryngologists, ophthalmologists, plastic surgeons, interventional neuroradiologists, radiation oncologists, and other skilled professionals to provide the most advanced and comprehensive care.
Conditions Treated
We treat patients with the following types of lesions in the cranial base region:
- Aneurysms
- Stroke requiring vascular bypass
- Pituitary tumors
- Acoustic tumors
- Meningiomas of the cranial base, including:
- Olfactory groove
- Cavernous sinus
- Petrous apex
- Foramen magnum
- Tumors of the clivus including chordoma
- Tumors of the orbit
- Tumors of the nasal sinuses extending toward the brain
Excellent outcomes
WVU surgeons are skilled in the latest minimally invasive surgical techniques and use of endoscopic approaches that provide for safer tumor removal and enhanced patient comfort. The goal is to maximize safe and effective treatment of lesions, while at the same time achieving excellent cosmetic outcomes.
State-of-the-Art Surgical Technology
State-of-the-art technology makes cranial base surgery possible. Our team approach is vital to providing the very best care and achieving the best possible outcomes for our patients.
State-of-the-art diagnostics
Advances in diagnostic technology have greatly increased physicians' ability to pinpoint problems in the cranial base and to develop a precise treatment plan. We use the latest imaging technologies, including PET, 3.0 Tesla MRI, high resolution CT angiography, SPECT, and others that provide highly accurate images of the brain. While in the operating room, computerized image guidance allows our surgeons to visualize the operative area precisely.
Sophisticated neuro-monitoring enables surgeons to carefully follow the brain's functioning even while a patient is asleep.
These include:
- electroencephalography
- somatosensory-evoked potentials
- brainstem auditory evoked responses
- intraoperative microsurgical Doppler
- high-resolution cerebral angiography
Highly advanced treatment
New minimally invasive instruments, some developed by our own faculty, facilitate treatment of lesions in the most difficult-to-reach areas of the brain. The Center offers multi-faceted approaches to treating cranial base disorders, ranging from medical and surgical management to neurointerventional techniques, reconstructive surgery, and advanced radiation therapy including the use of the Gamma Knife.

DRY SEASON is out in paperback on 3rd March, so that's not long either. Conincidentally it's World Book Day on that day – or maybe it's no coincidence? Maybe it's some kind of karma? Y'never know.
And, on top of all that, I've finished reading through the draft of another novel. Phew. It still needs tweaking here and there but it's coming on strong! Maybe it's time to put it down and walk away. I'll circle it for a while, pace back and forth, watch it from the corner of my eye, but I reckon its best left alone for a spell. I'll let it rest before I go at it again with a fresh attack. These novels, you know, sometimes you have to beat them into submission or they'll make you mad.

I met this Asian hottie in a local club. She has nice skin art which is my weakness when it comes to chicks. I paid her a visit at her work but she teased me for a massage.

How do you recommend to do markup for brand pages? EG, for an eCommerce site regarding bathrooms I would have individual product pages for all my products (toilets, sinks, showers, etc). The product pages would have proper schema markup for products, but what if I wanted a brand (information/landing) page for a specific brand of toilets - would the markup below be the proper way of doing it? FYI - the toilets wouldn't be the only brand my site would have. I could also have brand pages for other toilets, sinks, showers, etc.
Source: https://schema.org/BrandCode:<script type="application/ld+json"> { "@context": "http://schema.org/", "@type": "Brand", "name": "NumberTwo", "alternateName": "WizBeGone", "image": "http://www.example.com/NumberTwo-CollectionPhoto.jpg", "description": "NumberTwo toilets are the most luxurious toilets in the world." } </script>
Have I understood the Brand schema wrong? I find plenty of examples regarding articles/products schema markup, but are not able to find anything regarding the brand.
Any answer is appreciated.

I think we can say the Obama foreign policy agenda is a mess. Taliban being let go, Iraq falling apart under the ISIS assaults, and Hillary running around saying all is well like a bad Kevin Bacon imitation.
If no one was getting hurt, I'd laugh so hard I would fall down. Sadly, as usual with our liberal numbskulls, that isn't the case. In fact, our people in Afghanistan apparently "found" one or more of the stingers the Chris Stevens tried to recover, and was killed for his efforts.
The Obama administration isn't only giving the Taliban back its commanders — it's giving them weapons.
Miliary records and sources reveal that on July 25, 2012, Taliban fighters in Kunar province successfully targeted a US Army CH-47 helicopter with a new generation Stinger missile.
They thought they had a surefire kill. But instead of bursting into flames, the Chinook just disappeared into the darkness as the American pilot recovered control of the aircraft and brought it to the ground in a hard landing.
The assault team jumped out the open doors and ran clear in case it exploded. Less than 30 seconds later, the Taliban gunner and his comrade erupted into flames as an American gunship overhead locked onto their position and opened fire.
The next day, an explosive ordnance disposal team arrived to pick through the wreckage and found unexploded pieces of a missile casing that could only belong to a Stinger missile.
Lodged in the right nacelle, they found one fragment that contained an entire serial number.
The investigation took time. Arms were twisted, noses put out of joint. But when the results came back, they were stunning: The Stinger tracked back to a lot that had been signed out by the CIA recently, not during the anti-Soviet jihad.
Reports of the Stinger reached the highest echelons of the US command in Afghanistan and became a source of intense speculation, but no action.
Everyone knew the war was winding down. Revealing that the Taliban had US-made Stingers risked demoralizing coalition troops. Because there were no coalition casualties, government officials made no public announcement of the attack.
My sources in the US Special Operations community believe the Stinger fired against the Chinook was part of the same lot the CIA turned over to the Qataris in early 2011, weapons Hillary Rodham Clinton's State Department intended for anti-Khadafy forces in Libya.
Seriously? We gave them stingers, and those stingers were used to shoot down our helicopters? And just like in the eighties with the Russians, the CIA did it? Dude!
This should be on every show, every day until someone goes to jail. At least in Iran/Contra they weren't shooting the missiles AT US!!!
PS- it does show once again that the liberal in America are those who think intentions are the same as results, were conservatives judge by the outcomes. A lesson the Iraqi leadership is learning the hard way.

Fine Pruning: Ornamental Tree and Shrub Pruning Services
Maybe it's because it is in the name, but Trimmers Landscaping seem to get a lot of calls for shrub trimming. Southern New Hampshire residents are always looking for a landscaping company who offers fine pruning of shrubs. When they've called Trimmers Landscaping, we are happy to say they have found the pros!
For years we have recognized the problem with small tree and shrub maintenance services. These fine pruning services simply don't exist! The choices for many homeowners in New Hampshire who want their shrubs pruned are either hiring a tree company or a lawn maintenance company who also trims bushes. What they often find is that the tree companies in New Hampshire specialized in removing large trees and tend to shy away from smaller pruning projects. Landscape maintenance companies often times do not understand the way shrubs grow. They attack them with shears, creating a green shell that is dead in the middle but flushes out new growth on the tips that has to be cut off every year the same way.
They missed the memo that shrubs do not grow like grass!
Proper pruning techniques take more time per shrub initially, but eventually the growth slows down to a more natural pace, and the plant begins to take on its natural form. While it's true that some shrubs will tolerate shearing, many shrubs like Rhododendrons or Azaleas should never be sheared.
|At Trimmers Landscaping we always try to provide a natural pruning alternative to our clients.
A shrub that has been selectively hand pruned has growth inside as well as out, and an open branching structure that allows airflow and prevents disease. It maintains a balance of flowering buds so that you always have some seasonal color when the shrub is in bloom.
Not only that, but being "up close and personal" with the shrub allows our Horticulturist to inspect for any disease or insect problems that need to be treated.
We are not limited to small trees either. Our aerial lift can remove hanging limbs as high as 50 feet of your property without damaging your lawn. It gives us the ability to shape large hedges as well.
Our Ornamental Tree and Shrub Care program can be implemented as part of your overall landscape maintenance package, or can be provided as a stand-alone service. Ask us about it today so you can have the healthiest, best looking trees and shrubs in New Hampshire!

We think that significant moral questions are raised by the universal health debate and would like to christian_new.jpgformulate several for you. Our purpose is not to draw a one-size-fits-all conclusion about the merits of all current health care bills. These raise complex questions and there are reasons to support and/or oppose various pieces of different bills.
The Catholic Church has affirmed for some time a right to a minimum of decent, humane and accessible health care.[1] This does not imply that a nationalized health care system is a good idea, nor its establishment a fundamental right. But it does imply that Catholics should work for some kind of improvement or reform in the current system on behalf of those who cannot afford adequate care. -Read More

Atop the Swiss mountains with ELCA Informatique SA
ELCA Informatique SA has developed a modern online reservation system for the Swiss Alpine Club (SAC)'s mountain huts for managing overnight stays.
Up to now, the Swiss Alpine Club's hut wardens recorded reservations for their huts in a simple paper calendar – from now on, they can manage overnights stays, of which there are more than 300,000 per year, using a newly developed online reservation system.
ELCA Informatique SA, a Swiss IT consulting and services company, has developed a modern reservation system tailored to the needs of the hut wardens and guests. Several employees can now work in the system at the same time, regardless of their location.
Although the basic functions are the same for all the huts, the system, which is available in four languages, also allows hut wardens to make individual configurations to suit their requirements. In future, it will also be possible for huts that are not owned by the SAC to use this reservation system.
Visitors to the huts can use the reservation system at home or while on the move to reserve a bed or a meal at the hut quickly and with ease. The hut wardens as well as potential guests can see at a glance when the hut is fully booked or what the bookings situation is like.
In keeping with the mobile age, the system is mobile and adapts automatically to the end user's device, be it a smartphone, tablet or PC.

Dealing With Other Parents
While out and about it has come to my attention that there are some really bad parents out there (was that rude? I call 'em like I see 'em). While attending a workshop at a museum we noticed a kid rubbing other children. He was touching their backs, necks, shoulders and heads. His mother noticed his behavior and pulled him to the side. I have no idea what she said to him, but he pushed away from her and went over the facilitator to continue his touching.
The woman teaching the class handled it by trying to ignore him, but it was strange watching this child rub all over this adult woman … and the mother didn't pull him to the side again. Um …. wth?
I wasn't sure what to do so He and I just moved our eyes from the happening to each other over and over again. Does anyone have any advice? What should we have done?
Cursing Is Good for Children
My mother not only swore in front of us, she allowed us to curse, as necessary, to express ourselves. We couldn't curse at someone (F*ck you, you piece of sh*t!) but we could curse to express our feelings (This is some b*llsh*t!) when appropriate (no other adults were around). Growing up like that taught me that 1) there is a time and a place for everything and 2) sometimes you've just gotta let it out! Lol
I have an amazing vocabulary and have always spoken well. I also curse like a sailor. I don't mean I curse when I'm upset. I mean that I curse when I'm happy (Ay! Did you see that f***ing thing? It was HUGE! Whoo hoo!), I curse when I'm sad (Wow. I can't believe I'll never talk politics with my mom again. She was on her sh*t. She was amazing.), and I curse when I'm confused (What do you mean you don't sell it anymore? That's some b*llsh*t!).
He wasn't raised like that at all. His parents still apologize to me when they let a curse slip (Oh! Excuse me. *sheepish grin*), so we are not at all on the same page about what we'll allow in our home. I read this article about why cursing is good and I had to share it! Not only does it "prove" my theory that cursing is 1) normal 2) healthy, it also furthers my ideology that cursing helps to create a whole individual.
Number three is my favorite:
It's been suggested (and debated endlessly) that people who swear are more honest and trustworthy.
Yeah! We're very honest. Honest to a fault some might say, but would you prefer we lied? Anyhoo … what are the rules at your house? Do you curse around your children? What happens when they curse around you?

Golf is tough enough without having equipment that doesn't suit your game. Putting styles are unique to every golfer, so a standard putter can not be expected to work for everyone.
Conventional putters have rounded bottoms to hide the fact that the putter may not be flat on the ground. The problem is that the built-in loft of the putter could work against you, starting your putts off line.
Harmonix putters are custom fit to your stance, which ensures that the ball starts out on the intended path.
Gripping the putter too tightly eliminates the benefits of a well balanced putter. Keep a very light grip and you will feel the putter head do its work.
Missing putts on the low "Amateur" side of the hole is a common problem, which causes the ball to roll away from the hole.
Professional golfers play extra break so that if they miss, the ball is rolling towards the hole as it dies.
Slippery, downhill putts, on lightning fast greens can cause you to make a tentative stroke, usually not finishing the swing, causing a missed putt.
Play the ball near the toe of the club to soften the action which allows for a more confident, complete stroke.
How many times does your ball fall off to the side of the hole, just as it was about to go in?
Hit your putts firm enough to get one foot past the hole in order to keep it on line and sink more putts. Remember the saying, "90% of putts that are short, don't go in"!
Golfers that "hit" at the ball when putting are usually very inconsistent.
The putting stroke should resemble a pendulum. And be sure to follow through to eliminate decelerating during the stroke.
Before you can start to plumb bob with your putter, you need to determine what direction the putter head must be facing in order for the club to be hanging perfectly straight down.
STEP 1: Know Your Putter
To do that, look for something to compare with, such as a wall or side of a tall building. Anything that is straight up and down will do.
Holding the putter lightly at the top, raise it to so that the side of the object you are using is lined up with one side of the putter shaft (see figures 1, 2 and 3).
In this example, Fig. 2 is the straightest.
Your results may differ, depending on your putter's characteristics, but now you will know which way your putter head must face whenever using it to plumb bob.
Scroll down to continue...
STEP 2: How To Plumb Bob
Stand behind the ball, keeping it directly in line with the hole. Raise your putter, holding it with the head facing the way you determined above.
If the hole is to the right or left of the putter shaft, that is the direction the ball will break.

Indecent Perfection
No one else would understand. No one else had to.
AN: Aw crap, damn you plotbunnies.
In case you don't know: an OT3 is a shipping that involves three people. In this instance, it's Gold, Silver and Kris. I love the ORIGINAL Johto trio in any shape or form. Lyra can go to hell and the name Ethan doesn't exist for me.
She could try and change her mind. She could overlook the simple and obvious facts. But no matter how it was looked at, they were a team that was destined to stay together for life. As friends, as rivals, as trainers...
...as lovers.
She had grown up. They all had. Gone were the innocent days of finding out who's better than who in a pokemon battle. The only thing that remained of their childhood innocence were the memories she cherished so much.
She couldn't even remember how it happened, only that it just had. The stages of hormones had reached all three of them and they seemed to rage out of control for them.
One kiss lead to another and so did experimenting.
Not that she minded, but you know, it was a little shocking at first.
They were an unlikely threesome. She was a champion, one of her boys was a trainer with an occasional job at the Trainer House and the other boy was a thief with one hell of a temper. She had grown up with Gold, it just seemed so right that she would end up with him. But then Silver had to come barging into their lives and changed everything from right to wrong.
Even though she knew it was wrong, Kris strangely enjoyed it.
Maybe it was the trust. Or the unique bond they had forged. No matter the case, they were inseparable. Two guys, one girl. One sensitive and yet slightly goofy, one dangerous and cunning and one sweet and brave.
She had gone for Gold first, but Silver was still on her mind. And she hated herself for wanting both of them in her life.
But behind her back, she didn't realize that Gold and Silver wanted each other as well. The discovery was accidental and yet perfect. They could love each other completely without restrictions.
But the secrecy was murder. Kris hated having to hide their relationship, but the media loved to pry into her life for being another child prodigy, even though it had been years since she first became champion. There have been others since then but she still gets benefits, the title, the money, the paparazzi and if word got out she was involved in a polygamous relationship, word would spread worse than the fire on the Burnt Tower with equally disastrous results.
It was indecent. But it was perfection all the same.
As Gold, Silver and Kris lived for the moment where all three of them would be taken to the ultimate pleasures together, they had to thank fate for giving them this chance that not many were blessed to have. To love and be loved to such an extent was a madness they relished in, a madness they didn't want the cure for.
I'm thinking of turning this into a story. It was mostly inspired by the Vocaloid song Imitation BLACK by Gakupo, Len and KAITO. Actually, I tried writing something based off of it with my best friend, but certain circumstances had to cancel it but the idea is still fresh in my mind.
I like OT3s.
And no, it does not have to do with threesome porn.
Shut j00 maofs.

Last night it occurred to me that Mitt Romney hasn't gotten a job in a long, long time. Just how long took some calculating. Romney ran for president last cycle and lost to McCain; he ran for the Senate before that and lost to Ted Kennedy. Of course, he is wealthy enough he doesn't need a job, but that's not much of a qualification for running for president. His claim to the world's most powerful position is based on the strength of his executive experience but the dates attached to that experience are pretty distant: the Bain Capital spin-off that made him rich (or richer) happened two decades ago; the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City that he helped rescue from financial turmoil was a decade ago.
So when did Mitt Romney last succeed in getting a job? Nearly ten years ago, when he parlayed his Olympics success — backed up, as is his habit, by $6 million of his own fortune — into the governorship of Massachusetts. He won that race in 2002 but decided not to seek re-election in 2006; since then, he has been looking for work. What are some other things that happened in 2002? The first American soldier was killed in eastern Afghanistan, the euro became legal tender, WorldCom revealed it had cooked its books, American Taliban John Walker Lindh was convicted, Trent Lott resigned as Senate Majority Leader, and the #1 song was "How You Remind Me" by Nickelback. How long ago does that seem? Too long, certainly, to feel relevant to the current day. As many others besides Romney have learned during the current economic downturn, after that much time out of the job market skills begin to atrophy, metabolisms slow, and you start to look like yesterday's man.
It is a good thing Romney is rich because he is basically unemployable.
The painting above is the official portrait of Mitt Romney when he was Governor of Massachusetts. Painted by Richard Whitney, it provides much to marvel at amid its general Thomas Kinkade-like color scheme but the main curiosity, surely, is the oddly angled head in the mini-portrait on Romney's desk — we trust this is Ann, his high school sweetheart, but it looks no more like her than the larger portrait does Mitt.

1. I love this picture Hazel made for me. Me cooking dinner with Orrin on my hip, Hazel sitting and reading a book to me, our orange light; however, there is no washing machine in our apartment (it's in the basement),s o I'm not sure why that's in there.
2. I got a haircut. It was supposed to be a trim. This is the picture I took to show what I wanted:
Basically I just wanted my hair evened out (since the front was longer than the back) and a few very minimal layers at the very front.
This is how I came out:
Layers all OVER the place. Didn't my stylist realize the 90's were over a decade ago? Now I will get it cut shorter because me no likey all these choppy layers. This always happens to me. I cannot keep long hair! Grrrr.
3. I loved the smell of Orrin's hair today after I gave him a bath this morning. I kept smelling it and loving it all day.
4. Yesterday Hazel said to me, "When you come to my school to bring treats on my birthday in 2012, could you dress nicely?" Apparently I didn't dress nicely enough in 2011.
5. On Sunday we went on a walk by the farm and Ethne wore her flip flops which kept falling off all the time. Once when she was particularly frustrated she yelled, "Idiot flip flop!" It was so funny.
6. I printed off this little "poem" sheet
for Hazel to fill out, and this is what she said.
I am sporty.
I wonder win the world stops.
I hear cow bells.
I see nauter (nature).
I want sonshine.
I am nice.
I pretend i'm a indian.
I feel trees.
I touch grass.
I worry win i'm home alone.
I cry win I hert myself.
I am wild.
I understand nauter (nature).
I say true words.
I dream that I kan fly.
I try my beste.
I hope I have a gud life.
I am kul (cool).
7. I like when there are funny English translations on signs or things here. For instance, on the bulletin board at church there was a information sheet about a service project, and across the top in big red writing was "Your help is mostly welcome." Ha ha ha! And on a toy that I bought the other day—a toy that can be popped— it said, "Caution. To avoid the sharp matter and point." Although with that one I don't think it has anything to do with translation from German to English, I'm pretty sure that came straight from Chinese to English. I see things like that all the time and find them so amusing.
8. The other day I was walking Hazel to her friend's house for a birthday party and we were talking about some of her classmates and things, and I asked her if I was seven years old and in her class would she like me. She said, "Yes. But you would be the only one with red hair." And I said, "…So?" And she said, "Well, that would be not so comfortable."
"Awww- my big sister Hazel. She's always so nice to me."
"My brother Jethro. Whoa."
"Mom, are you seeing this?"
