162/365 - can you fix this?
Originally uploaded by mere2007
...that was all that was running through my head as I (clumsily) mended katie's top tonight. because of course I know how to do that (clumsily, but it would've been way easier and neater if I'd had a sewing maching instead)...but I realized there are so many things on that list. and honestly, I'm glad I know almost all of them (and hoping I can be sure katie does too...before july!)
Curious about thoughts from others - but here is my quick attempt at a top 10 list in no particular order:
1. sew on a button, mend an underarm seam or a hem.
2. clean the kitchen and the bathroom. (yes - I'm into cleanliness and I really believe that a clean kitchen and a clean bathroom is really all you need, but I suspect my mom would add "dusting" to this list and I am, or at least used to be, a pro at that!)
3. do laundry without ruining anything (meaning no running colors, no shrinking)
4. unplug a toilet (I'm really only so-so good at this - but it's a much needed skill in a house of mostly girls)
5. open a bottle of wine that has a cork.
6. balance a checkbook (bouncing a check is just not cool)
7. hang a picture. straight.
8. make coffee.
9. make dinner (doesn't matter what it is, everyone needs to have one meal they can pull off on their own)
10. write a thank you note.
of course all of this is really secondary to the important stuff, like being a good person, loving others and being loved...but you get the gist...

And here are two male Red Breasted Grosbeaks and one male Baltimore Oriole. They are so much fun to watch.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I can only imagine how difficult a decision that was for your family. Your Michigan home is lovely and you sure won't miss our heat! Looking forward to seeing more of your garden!ReplyDelete
Oh, so sorry about Tyson. :( It's so tough to lose a beloved pet, and he was part of your family for so long! I agree regarding the birds, Diane. Every year we seem to have different ones visit. I've never been successful at attracting the Orioles before, but the oranges did the trick about a week ago as they were migrating through. I hope we'll see more in the weeks ahead! Welcome home to the Midwest for the summer!ReplyDelete
I've never seen a Baltimore Oriole! I'll send you a million sparrows for a few of your birds. :o) I am so really sorry about Tyson. I know how hard that is. I always plan on emptying my dogs ashes into the garden but can never bring myself to do it.ReplyDelete
I am sorry to hear you lost Tyson. I had the same happen to my Akita, where he could barely walk or stand up. I know how you must have felt losing him. You had a very long drive. I got back from PA after a ten hour drive (that should have taken less than 7 hours) so I bet you were very glad to pull in the driveway. Grosbeaks!!! I like how you captured them, a shy bird too. I cannot believe how they are showing up everywhere. Where were they before? We now have a male and female oriole pair. It must mean they are nesting nearby and that too is unusual. I am keeping them with the grape jelly. Such sweet-beaks I guess!ReplyDelete

In picture: Mallika at her very "first rugby match", almost blending in with the beefcakes in hot pants
We haven't seen much of Mallika Sherawat after her last film, Kismat Dilli Love Paisa, got flushed down the box office toilet.
But she's made sure she's on everyone's radar by tweeting incessantly about her escapades abroad.
She is going out of her way to make us believe that she is straddling both Bollywood and Hollywood with ease when, in fact, we believe the truth may not be as glamorous.
But who are we to deprive anyone of their dreams (delusions?). So we bring you a roundup of what Mallika says she's been keeping busy with!

The day after Miles' big party was his actual birthday, 21 December. While Mama celebrated the occasion by getting her hair done, Daddy took Miles on the merry go round.
Miles was a bit pensive at first.
But then started to have some birthday fun!
Here is a video of the occasion we thought was pretty funny (yes we are finally entering the modern world of blogging!):
Happy birthday little Miles Leroy!

The one thing I'm so thankful for out of this Haiti insanity is that Miles is too young to remember any of it.

UPDATE 12/17/2015, 12:30pm - Response from the NJSIAA regarding the new Wrestling Skin Check Procedures.
"At this time, with the season now upon us, we will hold of for now on having Athletic Trainers perform skin checks at weigh in prior to a wrestling match. For this season, skin checks according to the rule previously stated will be performed by the referee assigned to the match."
For the full letter from the NJSIAA, please click here.
The Executive Council had been working diligently with NJSIAA and the SMAC for this positive resolution.
Thank you for your concerns and your patience.
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
As many of you are aware, the NJSIAA and the Sports Medicine Advisory Committee (SMAC) published guidelines with regard to skin checks for high school wrestlers. The ATSNJ leadership was pleased to be included in discussions around the guidelines as it is our strong desire to represent our members in any area that impacts their practice. While the ATSNJ is neither the authority charged with promoting such guidelines nor do we have the ability to change them on our own, we do believe our role is the advancement of the profession and promotion of the highest level of care for our athletes, and as such we believe that the new skin check guidelines are appropriate in concept. However, we also believe that the current form in which they have been presented may lead to unintended consequences for our members, the athletes for whom they care, and other stakeholders. We have shared our concerns in dialogue with the NJSIAA and in a letter that you can find at the bottom of this article.
We realize that many of you are concerned as the wrestling season is upon us. The ATSNJ has recommended that these guidelines be tabled until the 2016-2017 wrestling season. We hope to have a formal answer on these guidelines from the NJSIAA tomorrow as to whether they will be tabled for this season.
Thank you for your continued support of the ATSNJ, and for allowing us to represent our profession on your behalf.

The complexities of the tax rules are easily avoided by utilizing only out-of-the-money covered calls. For conservative investors, this makes good sense even without considering how federal taxes affect the strategy. It can and does affect planning if you intend to create a forced sale using deep in-the-money calls ("deep" means more than 5 points below strike price). Under the definitions in the tax rules, that would convert all stock sales to short-term because the options would be nonqualified.
Rather than seeking forced exercise, most conservative investor prefer to keep ownership of the stock and use options to maximize short-term income, hopefully in a repetitive fashion. So, exercise avoidance is a far more attractive strategy for most people. In some instances, a stock's trading range remains narrow enough that option profits can be achieved with little effort or lost opportunity risk; relatively low price volatility means there is little chance of exercise. However, a stock's price can exceed the strike price, which makes it a viable conservative strategy to avoid exercise.

Creation, True Science versus Evolution: Conclusion
by Eferovo Igho

We must always agree with Francis Bacon, the father of modern science, that there are two indispensable books – the book of nature and the Bible. They are inseparable. Science will always launch out to 'discover' nature only to come back to discover that whatever discovery it hits out there is actually or impliedly accommodated in Scriptures. True science cannot discover anything that is not already imbedded in Scriptures. Interpret Bible properly and you get it there! Ask Galileo.
And going away from the age of Bacon and Galileo, we must again recall Sir John F. Herschel (1792 – 1871), the British astronomer who mapped over 525 new nebulae and star clusters told all ages: "all human discoveries seem to be made only for the purpose of confirming more and more strongly the truths that come on high and are contained in the sacred writings (the Bible)". You can go on and on reiterating the position of world acclaimed scientists and astronomers on this.
But all that would mean nothing if there are no evidence. And so, besides presenting the concurring views of world acclaimed scientists over the ages on this, we have gone further to present findings of science and how they affirm Scriptures. Yes, there is innumerable evidence. In Chapter Two we saw just enough for a small work as this. The findings of true science align with Scriptures. True science and its findings 'cry loud and clear' that there is a Creator, an Almighty and Super Intelligent Being out there. He puts the world together. Let quacks and false scientists fantasise if they will, but we wish they be humans; for it is human to know that there is God. Evolutionists and all atheists only deny their Creator to their peril.
God made it all! Evolution is mere fantasy; false science and bundle of confusion! It is only masking as science. It is far from being it. The Bible speaks of science so-called. This is one.
Beyond creation, we have seen the place of the Bible and civilisation: God drives what He created. He drives civilisation. The Bible is our compass. He drives the world. God drives creation through all eternity. And we have also seen the place of Israel and the Church, God's two special plantings in His larger planting called earth, in this. In the face of unparallel Satan's propelled onslaught on Israel and the Church of Christ in history let evolutionists and atheists look at the resilience of these two indelible signatures of God on earth and know that there is God Almighty: THE CREATOR of all, including atheists!
The God of Creation is also the God of Eternity. Evolutionists and Atheists beware!

Day 8, Friday 3rd Feb 2017
Today we prepared for our 4th game of bowls during our Tasmania trip, Bicheno RSL Bowling Club.
We spent the morning touring the region and exploring the fishing town of Bicheno, some travellers took a ride in a glass bottom boat to view the marine inhabitants, others meandered about town.
After lunch we proceeding to the Bowling Club.
The non bowlers enjoyed the afternoon walking along the scenic foreshore before settling down to enjoy some wine tasting.
The panaramic views from this club while bowling were quite distracting, as they were breathtaking.
The locals were short of a few bowlers, so some of our bowlers were happy to play in their teams against WPH.
After a great afternoon of Bowls, Ross thanked the Bicheno RSL Bowling Club president Mark Oliver for hosting us and presented a plaque of appreciation.
We were treated to a fabulous gourmet roast lamb dinner with all the trimmings. All cooked and prepared by club volunteers. A wonderful effort.
Tasmania continues to surprise and delight us.

I am a writer and tour guide in Copenhagen, Denmark. Though I originally come from Colorado, I left the US when I was eighteen and I haven't lived there since.
More permanent stops on my travels have included Switzerland, Wales and Denmark. The arrival of a Danish husband has somewhat cemented my living situation, but I get my travel in smaller doses these days. It's my goal to travel once a year to a place I haven't been before.
I like to write fantasy, mostly, though I dabble in soft sci-fi. My short stories are more adult, my novels more YA.
I've studied history, archaeology, and writing. I like to take my inspiration from historical events, and the more unknown and inspiring the event, the better. If my blog manages to be as disorganized as my mind, I'll consider that a compliment.
I am represented by Kurestin Armada of P.S. Literary.

Commanding magnificent views of the Pacific Ocean, Stone Manor is nestled within three acres of coastal gardens along "Lover's Lane" in Malibu, providing the perfect setting for a romantic wedding or two.
When Lance Lindsay was a young man growing up in Southern California, Malibu was still just a 21-mile stretch of rough coastline where the mountains tumble into the sea. His family would often go horseback riding among the hills, or collect shells along the beach, at a time when the sleepy little town was just beginning to blossom as a surfing mecca.
Born of a long line of inventors and designers, Lance is the son of John C. Lindsay, one of the foremost architects of his time, who specialized in the mid-century modern style, with a number of signature buildings scattered throughout Southern California. When his father passed away, Lance inherited quite a number of doors from his father, including two big front doors which he found inspiring. Although he was only in his twenties and finances were tight, he paid to keep them preserved and stored, promising himself that one day he would "build a house around them."
In 1987 he got his chance. The stretch of land known as "Lover's Lane", treasured by the locals for its view of the ocean in the moonlight, came up for sale through the grandparents of some friends. Lance leapt at the chance to purchase it, even though no utilities had been brought in, and it wasn't easily accessible. Diving into the project, he developed the land and utilities were brought in for Stone Manor and five other properties along a private road.
With his background in design, inventing, and film production, Lance and his wife Aime designed the home to show off the stunning location and view, setting it up intentionally for photo shoots and professional filming. Built in an "L" shape, the home tracks with the sun, providing bright California sunshine to the interior of the home all day long. And since the view is exquisite, the home is oriented to provide a sweeping lawn with a view straight out to Catalina Island. With a slate aisle down the center, and a border of green hedges, it has an "infinity garden" look that draws the eye outward, while keeping the atmosphere intimate.
Because the area was still unincorporated land at the time of building, they were able to add features to the home that are unusual by today's building standards. Four massive stone fireplaces provide not just heat but ambience and structural beauty to the home. A lot of natural spaces within open directly to natural spaces without, giving the home fresh breezes when wanted, and subtly bringing the outdoor feeling inside all year-round. Lance added beautiful water features and elegant self-designed light fixtures to the landscaping.
The interior design was largely done by Aime and Lance themselves, though they admit to being inspired both by European travels and by some of the ideas of the professional crews that have come in to convert a room overnight for productions and product launches. Two crews in particular came from Restoration Hardware and DirectTV, and Aime was so impressed she hired them to consult with her on the interior décor. The result is like a garden home that is both comfortable and indulgent, with charming details set in a natural environment. "It's always very validating," Aime says, "when very discerning celebrities come in and say, 'This is us. This is perfect.'"
Lance and Aime put all their creativity and expertise into the home and the grounds. The outdoor spaces are coveted by gardeners around the world, and have been featured in magazines such as English Home and Garden and American Horticulture. Lovingly designing their own ecosystem, they have created a breathtaking outdoor garden around the home, enhancing the natural wonder of the property.
There are long pathways set up as perfect backdrops for bridal photos, a softly lit waterfall in the front drive, and private paths leading to secret retreats and intimate nooks. They even have their own grove of coastal redwoods, one of the largest in the area. In the lower terrace the landscaping truly shines, lit by Lance's own designs of copper and brass fixtures which showcase the blooming flowers and leafy fruit trees. This is a favorite socializing site, ideal for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres.
And of course, the big dream of using Lance's inherited doors was realized. One of the great sights of the home is the entrance, where the front doors greet visitors from the courtyard. Surrounded by 20,000 square feet of golden stone and lit by thousands of Tivoli lights, it is a private, peaceful enclosure that is the ideal setting for wedding receptions and evening celebrations.
As soon as house and grounds were ready, (before the trees were even four feet tall!) production companies and luxury brands began to ask if they could use the home and the landscape for product launches, fashion shows, print ads, and commercials. Everyone from Martha Stewart to Audi, The Bachelorette, to ESPN, wanted to take advantage of the singular beauty, and ideal setting, of Stone Manor. Before long, word spread, and the Lindsays found themselves fielding wedding requests by the dozen.
Surprised and delighted, they found that they loved it. "It's an Enchanted Garden" Aime Lindsay says, "in the first season alone we did thirty-three weddings." Already intimately familiar with the services of local professional chefs, photographers, and event planners, they had every connection in place to give wedding families and guests the most seamless and enjoyable experience possible. Stone Manor's reputation has continued to grow over the years such that now they rent the home out for other events and to vacationers as well.
The list of visitors to Stone Manor is impressive. Celebrities, performers, athletes, politicians, and wealthy business people come to take advantage of not just the impressive views, but the red carpet treatment of guests. With five bedrooms and six bathrooms (four en-suite) it has room to sleep ten guests. The kitchen features high-end appliances, but the outdoor grill and al fresco dining area often draw people outside. Whether guests are craving an hour on the putting green, or a glass of champagne in the Jacuzzi, great care has been taken to ensure everyone gets what they want.
Though the private drive provides security and a "Paparazzi-Proof" location, downtown 'Bu is only a few minutes away. Los Angeles is 40 minutes away by car, if you'd like to see Rodeo Drive or Sunset Boulevard. And, of course, if you love the beach, there are many world-renowned beaches nearby to choose from.
The town of Malibu has grown up through its "Surfin' USA" years to become a high-end, chic destination, frequented by international travelers, and inhabited by plenty of celebrities. The "groovy' little town has become the ideal location for a West Coast wedding, anniversary, or vacation. And in the entire coastal stretch, you will find only one property with the perfect combination of serenity and glamour, the Stone Manor.

Thomas I'll offer you my 102 at least it still works

Oh My God! That is a point of reference all right! Don't mean to be rude but the idea of listening to that thing brings back real bad memories! I got fired from a HiFi store for syaing what I thought of the sound of that thing when it came out. Everyone else there bought them! That reminds me of the thread today about the annoying sounds that drive audiophiles nuts!

Hormonology uses hundreds of scientific studies to show you how your hormones impact you in virtually every way every day of your monthly cycle. The Hormone Horoscope is a nifty little way of dispensing this information daily. To get started, find the week you're on in your monthly cycle (you can use this easy guide if you're not sure), then read your Hormone Horoscope for today!
Which week are you on
in your monthly cycle?
Find out what it reveals about
what your day has in store:
Week 1
Day 1 (first day of period) to Day 7
Estrogen and testosterone rise
Today's Hormone Horoscope: If it's the first half of your Week 1, chances are low-but-rising estrogen has you a bit on the quiet side, so you're less likely to pipe up in conversation or talk someone's ear off. If it's the second half of your Week 1, anyone within a 5-foot radius is fair game for your verbal volleys. That's because a higher level of estrogen is inspiring you to talk up a storm and a higher level of testosterone is making you more confident about what you have to say, so you're more likely to share what you think.
Week 2
Day 8 to Day 13
Estrogen and testosterone rise till they peak
Today's Hormone Horoscope: You're likely to let out your naughty side today, for instance, by sending risque pictures to your sweetie, playing practical jokes on friends, letting curses fly toward someone who irritated you or breaking a rule you know you really shouldn't. Credit for your bad-girl ways goes to high estrogen and testosterone, which make you bold, daring and impulsive.
Week 3
Day 14 (or ovulation) to Day 22
Progesterone rises; estrogen and testosterone drop for half the week, then rise again
Today's Hormone Horoscope: You may feel a bit more sentimental today as rising progesterone gives your heartstrings an emotional tug. As a result, you may get the urge to book a vacation to a spot you enjoyed visiting with loved ones, call an old classmate out of the blue to say hi or look up old pals on Facebook to see what they've been up to all these years.
Week 4
Day 23 to the end of your cycle
Estrogen, testosterone and progesterone plunge
Today's Hormone Horoscope: For me, my worst premenstrual day is Day 23, the first day of Week 4, when virtually anything can set me off into a vocal cord-snapping screamfest that deafens all within a 10-foot radius (not that I'm bragging). After that, my irritability kind of subsides and maybe rears its head a couple of times, but far less intensely, till the end of my cycle. I bring this up because, for you, your worst premenstrual day may be a different day during Week 4, irritability and the blues may rise and fall throughout the week or, if you're one of the lucky ones, you may have no moodiness at all. My point is that PMS is not a one-size-fits-all experience, but it is a time to be aware that plunging estrogen has the potential to bring down good feelings and make you lose your cool, so try to avoid triggers that you know would set you off.

Summary: Together, you and your child can recite an evening prayer to God. This is a bedtime story that doubles as a prayer book.
Type of Reading: bedtime story, family reading, read aloud book, learning to read
Recommended Age: read together: 3 to 8; read yourself: 7 to 9
Interest Level: 3 to 8
Age of Child: Read with a 3-year-old child.
Young Reader Reaction: Although we selected the book several times, this never became a requested item. Months later, though, after s/he began to recite an evening prayer herself, she would 'read' it to her stuffed animals.
Adult Reader Reaction: This is a nice prayer, well suited for the toddler/preschool set. It helps to set the tone and create a pattern for saying prayers before bed.
Pros: The prayer's cadence is soothing (making it great bedtime read in its own right) but also specific about its purpose.
Cons: None.
Borrow or Buy: Borrow or Buy. Although it is a nice prayer book, it is only one prayer, and its value as a 'prop' for starting a prayer routine was limited. It may, however, be valuable again as a learning-to-read book.

Next stop: Iowa.
With the midterm election now in the books, Democrats are poised to begin searching for their 1992 presidential nominee. Common de cency toward voters, activists and fund-raisers, alternately disgusted and exhausted by this year's struggle, will compel the Democratic hopefuls to wait a little while before setting out on the road that leads to the first contest in Iowa, 15 months from now.
But only a little while. "People won't be thinking about 1992," said Democratic pollster Mark Mellman, "at least for a couple of weeks."
Actually, many Democrats heard in this fall's rallying cry of tax fairness the opening of the 1992 campaign. And with economic anxiety and anger at Washington driving down George Bush's approval rating from its stratospheric height, optimistic Democrats believe the road back to the White House may be finally rising to meet them.

THE CITY OF BELLEVILLE, PLAINTIFF-APPELLANT,v.M.W. KESLER, DEFENDANT-APPELLEE. — THE CITY OF BELLEVILLE, PLAINTIFF-APPELLANT,v.M.W. KESLER, DEFENDANT-APPELLEE.
APPEAL from the Circuit Court of St. Clair County; the Hon.
THOMAS M. DALEY, Judge, presiding.
Plaintiff, city of Belleville, appeals from the order of the circuit court of St. Clair County finding its ordinance regulating signs to be unconstitutional.
On March 5, 1980, defendant, M.W. Kesler, was charged with two violations of the city of Belleville's sign code. He was charged with having a free-standing sign in a B-1 (multifamily) district, in violation of section 53.34, chapter 53 of the ordinances of the city of Belleville (Belleville, Ill., Sign Code, ch. 53, art. IV, § 53.34 (1977)). Defendant was also charged with allowing a free-standing sign to project into a public right-of-way and allowing a free-standing sign to be closer than five feet to the side lot line, in violation of section 53.23(a) and (b), chapter 53 of the ordinances of the city of Belleville (Belleville, Ill., Sign Code, ch. 53, art. III, § 53.23(a) and (b) (1977)). Defendant's motion to dismiss the charges on the grounds that the sign code was unconstitutional was granted, and plaintiff appeals.
The record indicates that defendant was the owner of certain property located at 409 Mascoutah Avenue in Belleville, Illinois. He purchased the property in October 1979. At the time he purchased the property, a sign advertising the previous owner's business was located on the lot. Kesler took a sign from his previous business, painted it to indicate the change in business location, and erected the sign on the Mascoutah Avenue lot in November 1979. Under Belleville's sign code, the sign on Kesler's property was defined as a "free-standing sign," that is, "a street graphic supported by one (1) or more uprights, poles or braces placed in or upon the ground; or a street graphic supported by any structure erected primarily for the display and support of the street graphic." Belleville, Ill., Sign Code, ch. 53, art. I, § 53.02 (1977).
In December 1979, the city of Belleville passed a new zoning ordinance for the area in which Kesler's property was located. The new zoning ordinance changed the area from commercial zoning to multifamily (B-1) zoning. The sign code does not permit commercial advertising or free-standing signs in a B-1 district. Section 53.34 of the sign code provides in pertinent part:
"In any A-2 (two-family residence) or B-1 (multi-family residence) zoning district street graphics may contain only identification information, not commercial advertising. Non-exempt street graphics in these districts shall be either window graphics or flushmounted."
In the trial court, defendant urged that the sign code was unconstitutional because it deprived him of property without due process of law. He contends that the passage of the zoning ordinance purported to make illegal certain signs which previously were in conformity with the sign code. Defendant further contended that plaintiff was without authority to regulate defendant's sign because it was not located upon a vacant lot nor upon a building. Defendant relies on section 11-80-15 of the Illinois Municipal Code (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1979, ch. 24, par. 11-80-15), which provides:
"The corporate authorities of each municipality may license street advertising by means of billboards, sign boards, and signs and may regulate the character and control the location of billboards, sign boards, and signs upon vacant property and upon buildings."
The trial court entered an order finding the sign code unconstitutional as it applied to defendant. The court found that an owner of a building being used for lawful business has a right to continue the business in its present location, including the right to affix a business sign to the building. The court further found that many of the specific requirements of the sign code pertaining to sign dimensions, height, square footage, and location were unreasonable. The trial court concluded that, taken as a whole, the sign code was arbitrary and unreasonable and not related to the public health, welfare, and safety.
Plaintiff appealed, contending that the sign code is constitutional and that it was improper for the trial court to rule on the constitutionality of the entire sign code when the constitutionality of only a portion of the code was in issue.
• 1-3 It is a well established axiom that "one may not complain of a statutory provision which does not affect him." (Spalding v. City of Granite City (1953), 415 Ill. 274, 283, 113 N.E.2d 567, 572), and that a court may not "determine the constitutionality of the provisions of an act which do not affect the parties to the cause under consideration" (Rosewood Corp. v. Fisher (1970), 46 Ill.2d 249, 259, 263 N.E.2d 833, 839, cert. denied (1971), 401 U.S. 928, 28 L.Ed. 209, 91 S.Ct. 924. (Cf. Kujawinski v. Kujawinski (1978), 71 Ill.2d 563, 570, 376 N.E.2d 1382, 1385.) Accordingly, the trial court erred in declaring the entire sign code unconstitutional when only sections 53.23(a) and (b) and 53.34 were at issue.
• 4 Plaintiff next urges that defendant's reliance on section 11-80-15 of the Illinois Municipal Code is misplaced due to the fact that plaintiff enacted the sign code pursuant to its home rule authority under article VII, section 6 of the Illinois Constitution. We agree. Plaintiff's sign code, of which the trial court took judicial notice, was expressly enacted under the city's home rule authority; plaintiff's enactment of the sign code which is the subject of this controversy is a proper exercise of the city's power of regulation thereunder.
Additionally, we do not agree with the trial court's conclusion that plaintiff's sign code was unconstitutional because it was arbitrary, unreasonable and not related to the public health, welfare and safety.
• 5 Sign ordinances and zoning ordinances regulating signs have been held to be a constitutional exercise of a city's authority when related to a public interest. (State Street Properties, Inc. v. Zoning Board of Appeals (1973), 12 Ill. App.3d 98, 298 N.E.2d 239.) Here, defendant's sign is alleged to have projected into the public way, creating a potentially hazardous situation which the city has an interest in eliminating. (Cf. State Street Properties, Inc. v. Zoning Board of Appeals.) Therefore, we conclude that section 53.23(a) of the city of ...

Internet-start.net Removal Tips
Internet-start.net is a browser hijacker that suspiciously resembles Google Chrome. Its logo has the same color scheme and this might trick its users into believing that internet-start.net is actually legitimate and not dangerous. However, the reality is different.
This application is not only a browser hijacker, but also a PUP (potentially unwanted program). It has been installed without your permission, and it is important to eliminate all the programs that attack your PC unexpectedly. This useless application should be compatible with Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer: no matter which browser you are currently using, you cannot feel safe from this attacker. As soon as the PUP hijacks your PC system, the default search provider, new tab window, and home page change into something completely different: the website of the hijacker replaces all your options. The users who notice this threat should remove internet-start.net instantly.
Why is internet-start.net considered dangerous?
If you just take a look at your current home page (which is hijacked), you can see that application's interface does not look very dangerous. The fact that it looks similar to Chrome makes users trust the malicious hijacker. However, there are no search options to facilitate your browsing session. There is only a search bar and the links to Help, Privacy, and Terms underneath it. We can see that the browser hijacker uses Google Custom Search engine. Nevertheless, browsing with this PUP is considered dangerous. There can be a lot of advertisements displayed. These can redirect the user to pages that contain viruses. That is because, usually, the commercial advertisements are not checked for malware by the owners of the search engine. What is more, the results are simply filled with sponsored third-party links that are not useful to you. This makes your browsing more difficult because you might not know which links are legitimate and which are unreliable. Also, various non-personal and personal details can be gathered and used by the cyber criminals (for example, they can steal your passwords). Our security team advises you to delete internet-start.net in order to avoid security issues.
How did my PC get infected with internet-start.net?
On the official page of the potentially unwanted program, there is no link that could help you make internet-start.net your home page and default search provider. This means that the only way to spread the hijacker is bundling it with other software. Usually, it is freeware and shareware downloaded from fire sharing websites. We have one recommendation for you: select the Advanced or Custom installation option and read the Installation Wizard so that the infiltration of malware would be avoided.
How to remove internet-start.net from my computer system?
If you have even a little knowledge on computers, you can uninstall internet-start.net manually. The instructions on how to do this are given below. However, if you do not trust your PC abilities, you can use a professional security tool for internet-start.net removal.

BALTIMORE (WJZ) – An early morning fire ripped through an assisted living facility in northwest Baltimore.
Two people lost their lives and four more are critically hurt.
The fire started just after 2 a.m.
Officials say six people were taken to the hospital following the fire at the "Kozy Kottage" on the 2800 block of Lawina Road and Duvall Avenue.
"She was still hysterically screaming and I think she was saying there was still four more people in there. And the fire was so bad," Shauntee Monroe said.
More than 40 firefighters were needed to knock back the flames.
A seventh person was rescued from the home but refused treatment.
"Upon arrival, units found heavy smoke and fire coming from the first floor and the rear of the dwelling," said Blair Adams of the Baltimore City Fire Department.
The names or ages of the victims in this fire haven't been released.

ROGER WHITMORE'S, AUTOMOTIVE SERVICES, INC., and ROGER WHITMORE, Plaintiffs,
LAKE COUNTY, ILLINOIS, GARY DEL RE, GARY STRYKER, THOMAS CRICHTON, ALAN JACK DIAMOND, MAX JOHNSON, AUTO CENTER OF BEACH PARK, INC., WALLY HERMAN, W1LDWOOD SERVICE, INC., KEVIN DEPERTE, KEVIN'S TOWING, INC., EDWARD KOHLMEYER, and A-TIRE, INC., Defendants
The opinion of the court was delivered by: SAMUEL DER-YEGHIAYAN, District Judge
This matter is before the court on Defendants' motions for summary
judgment. For the reasons stated below, we grant all Defendants' motions
for summary judgment in their entirety.
Page 2
This case has been pending before Judge Gottschall for several years
and recently was reassigned to this court. Plaintiffs operate a towing
business in Illinois. According to Plaintiffs, when the Lake County
Sheriffs Office ("Sheriffs Office") needs a vehicle to be towed it
follows one of two alternatives. If the operator of the vehicle requests
a specific towing company then the Sheriffs office will call the
requested company. Otherwise the Sheriffs office calls the towing company
that is assigned by the County to cover the area where the vehicle is
located. Plaintiffs allege that beginning in 1997 the Sheriffs Office
began a scheme to raise money for the Sheriffs campaign for the 1998
Republican primary. According to Plaintiffs the incumbent Sheriff mailed
out donation requests and made requests by phone. In addition officers
allegedly visited businesses to solicit donations. According to
Plaintiffs the Sheriffs Office made sure that only the towing companies
that made contributions to the incumbent Sheriffs campaign received
contracts from Lake County ("County") for a towing area. Plaintiffs
contend that they did not contribute in 1997 to the incumbent Sheriffs
campaign and instead supported his opponent. Defendant Gary Del Re was
the incumbent Sheriff and Defendant Gary Stryker was the UnderSheriff.
Plaintiffs claim that their towing contract area was reduced when the
towing territory boundaries were reconfigured in 1998, fourteen months
after they failed to contribute to the incumbent Sheriffs fund and
supported the Sheriffs opponent. Plaintiffs' second amended version of
Counts I through IV are brought
Page 3
pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1962, Plaintiffs' second amended
version of Count V is a common law conspiracy claim. On April 27, 2001
Judge Gottschall, the prior judge in this case dismissed all claims
against Lake County and on February 19, 2004 we dismissed al claims
against Edward Kohlmeyer. The remaining Defendants have filed summary
judgment motions.
Summary judgment is appropriate when the record reveals that there is
no genuine issue as to any material fact and the moving party is entitled
to judgment as a matter of law. Fed, R, Civ, P, 56(c), In seeking a grant
of summary judgment the moving party must identify "those portions of
`the pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions
on file, together with the affidavits, if any,' which it believes
demonstrate the absence of a genuine issue of material fact." Celotex
Corp, v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 323 (1986) (quoting Fed.R. Civ, P.
56(c)). This initial burden may be satisfied by presenting specific
evidence on a particular issue or by pointing out "an absence of evidence
to support the non-moving party's case." Id. at 325. Once the
movant has met this burden, the non-moving party cannot simply rest on
the allegations in the pleadings, but, "by affidavits or as otherwise
provided for in [Rule 56], must set forth specific facts showing that
there is a genuine issue for trial." Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(e). A "genuine
issue" in the context of a motion for summary judgment is not simply a
"metaphysical doubt as to the material facts."
Page 4
Matsushita Elec. Indus. Co., Ltd. v. Zenith Radio Corp.,
475 U.S. 574, 586 (1986). Rather, a genuine issue of material fact exists
when "the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict
for the nonmoving party," Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc.,
477 U.S. 242, 248 (1986); Insolia v. Philip Morris, Inc., 216 F.3d 596,
599 (7th Cir. 2000). The court must consider the record as a whole,
in a light most favorable to the non-moving party, and draw all
reasonable inferences that favor the non-moving party.
Anderson, 477 U.S. at 255; Bay v. Cassens Transport
Co., 212 F.3d 969, 972 (7th Cir. 2000).
1. Statutes at Issue
Plaintiffs have included a barrage of claims in their amended complaint
and their second amended version of Count I through V. We shall address
identify and discuss the claims below and then will address them more
specifically as they pertain to the remaining counts.
A. RICO Claims
Plaintiffs have brought various RICO claims against Defendants pursuant
to 18 U.S.C.A. § 1962 which states the following: 1962. Prohibited
(b) It shall be unlawful for any person through a
pattern of racketeering activity or through
collection of an unlawful debt to acquire or
maintain, directly or indirectly, any interest in
or control of any enterprise which is engaged in,
or the activities of which affect, interstate or
foreign commerce.
(c) It shall be unlawful for any person employed
by or associated with any enterprise engaged in,
or the activities of which affect, interstate or
foreign commerce, to conduct or participate,
directly or indirectly, in the conduct of such
enterprise's affairs through a pattern of
racketeering activity or collection of unlawful
(d) It shall be unlawful for any person to
conspire to violate any of the provisions of
subsection (a), (b), or (c) of this section,
B. Hobbs Act Claims
Plaintiffs allege that the Hobbs Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1951 was violated
by various
Page 6
defendants. A plaintiff is required to show the existence of a quid
pro quo for a Hobbs claim. See McCormick v. U.S., 500 U.S. 257,
273-74 (1991)(stating that the court "disagree['s] with the Court of
Appeals' holding in this case that aquid pro quo is not
necessary for conviction under the Hobbs Act."); U.S. v, Allen,
10 F.3d 405, 411 (7th Cir. 1993)(stating that an express promise is
required and that "[v]ague expectations of some future benefit should not
be sufficient to make a payment a bribe."). It is not a violation of the
Hobbs Act to give contributions to the campaign of a candidate.
Id (stating that "[t]o hold otherwise would open to prosecution
not only conduct that has long been thought to be well within the law but
also conduct that in a very real sense is unavoidable so long as election
campaigns are financed by private contributions or expenditures, as they
have been from the beginning of the Nation."), There is no evidence that
any Defendants in this case made contributions to Del Re's ...

HUNDREDS of lorry drivers fear they could lose their jobs at a Doncaster distribution centre after their contracts were transferred.
Tesco has switched staff at its distribution centre in Middle Bank, at Doncaster Carr, to work for haulage giant Eddie Stobart, which is taking over the running of the operation.
But unions at the depot say the staff are worried about their future as they have received no assurances over their long-term plans.
The centre employs 200 drivers, who deliver to the company's stores across the north of England. They are expecting to have their employment transferred at the end of the week.
Harriet Eisner, official for the union Unite, which represents the drivers, said: "It is a TUPE transfer which is supposed to protect terms and conditions. We've been in talks with Eddie Stobart who have not been able to give us guarantees about what is going to happen after this weekend.
"We have tried to get assurances about what will happen in the medium to long term, a few weeks down the line, but they are refusing to give them.
"Our members are very concerned because they are fearing the worst for their jobs, and Eddie Stobart are doing nothing to reassure them.
"All they are saying is they don't know what's happening."
She said there was concern that, because Eddie Stobart already has its own fleet and drivers, the company may not keep the Tesco staff on.
She said there is also a fear that, if they are kept on, they may see their pay and conditions reduced in the longer term.
Tesco said its other distribution depots had already been transferred to Eddie Stobart.
A Tesco spokesman said: "As part of a recent review of our distribution network, we announced plans to transfer the transport operation at our Doncaster Distribution Centre to Eddie Stobart Ltd.
"This is in line with Tesco's wider distribution network in the region. We are now going through a period of consultation, working with affected colleagues and their union representatives from Unite, to help them through this transition."
No-one was available for comment at Eddie Stobart.
Doncaster Central MP Rosie Winterton ise aware of the situation.

Americans are so enamored of equality that they would rather be equal in slavery than unequal in freedom.
Alexis de Tocqueville
Climate, changes. It takes a particularly uneducated population to buy into the idea that it's their fault climate is changing and further political solutions can fix it.
The fastest way to become a liberal is to allow envy and resentment to consume you. Then remove any shred of integrity you ever had.
the theme of posts like this is that because there are environmental disasters that result from the transportation of oil, then we need to stop using oil and switch to renewables. it is my opinion that despite these occasional accidents, the goods provided still far outweigh these negatives.
i'd like to know from the posters who are against fossil fuels, exactly how much damage they feel we can tolerate as a society, like a cost/benefit ratio, before a given activity or industry is outlawed. your post suggests that we might agree, as there are a lot of activities that we engage in that damage the environment yet are still legal due to the benefits they provide
Killing one person is murder, killing 100,000 is foreign policy
Subsidies for renewables are bad. Subsidies for oil industry are good. The Chevron, BP, and Exxon lobbyists say so.
Now they're more reliant on browm coal than they were before they started their " energy revolution ".
Since renewables have to be HEAVILY subsidized by the Government ( tax payers ) and consumers ( surcharge ) the German citizens now pay 300 percent more for their electricity than the average American citizens.
And their air is dirtier because they are so reliant on Coal to fill the gaps caused by " renewables ".
No one should take inferior technology seriously.
The New Democratic Party Slogan :
" Return to Power By Any Means Necessary "
Killing one person is murder, killing 100,000 is foreign policy
Killing one person is murder, killing 100,000 is foreign policy
Which is silly BTW, do you think that by calling oil some schoolyard name is going to hurt its feelings or something? Laughable
Americans are so enamored of equality that they would rather be equal in slavery than unequal in freedom.
Alexis de Tocqueville
Think these guys are trying to hurt oils feelings too?
The Hidden Cost of Fossil Fuels
Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—are America's primary source of energy, accounting for 85 percent of current US fuel use. Some of the costs of using these fuels are obvious, such as the cost of labor to mine for coal or drill for oil, of labor and materials to build energy-generating plants, and of transportation of coal and oil to the plants. These costs are included in our electricity bills or in the purchase price of gasoline for cars.
But some energy costs are not included in consumer utility or gas bills, nor are they paid for by the companies that produce or sell the energy. These include human health problems caused by air pollution from the burning of coal and oil; damage to land from coal mining and to miners from black lung disease; environmental degradation caused by global warming, acid rain, and water pollution; and national security costs, such as protecting foreign sources of oil.
Since such costs are indirect and difficult to determine, they have traditionally remained external to the energy pricing system, and are thus often referred to as externalities. And since the producers and the users of energy do not pay for these costs, society as a whole must pay for them. But this pricing system masks the true costs of fossil fuels and results in damage to human health, the environment, and the economy.

Annual Report 2016: We were able to make a significant difference in our over 25 projects in East Africa an Switzerland, which focus on strengthening skills that foster independence and self-sufficiency. At the same time, we could help people make a substantial improvement in their living conditions. Biovision invested more than 6.6 million Swiss Francs in projects and programmes, representing a stable continuation of our entire programme with selected new investment.
Income: Biovision ended the Financial Year 2016 on a successful note, again recording a gratifying income in excess of 8 million Swiss Francs. Donations from private individuals were at a record level. Thanks to the generosity of our many loyal donors, Biovision remains a strong and viable organisation. Particularly welcome was the increase in the income from membership fees. As a result of this financial stability, we can focus on specific innovations, e.g. the widespread rollout of the Push-Pull method in other parts of Africa. It will also allow us to devote more resources to build the capacity of regional partners.
Project expenditures: Our new strategy sets clear objectives for the period 2016–2020 and so we have made certain adjustments to our expanded project portfolio. During the Financial Year 2016, Biovision invested more than 6.6 million Swiss Francs in projects and programmes, representing a stable continuation of our entire programme with selected new investment.
Deployment and source of funds averaged over five years from 2012-2016:
Deployment of funds 2012–2016
81% Projects
10% Fundraising and Communication
9% General Administration
Source of funds 2012–2016
34% Individual donors
9% Donor Memberships Contributions
11% Legacies
28% Companies and Foundations
18% Government agencies
As a ZEWO-certified foundation, Biovision fulfills the accounting regulations for non-profit organisations in Switzerland. Furthermore our financial accounting adheres to the Swiss GAAP FER 21 principles for non-profit organizations and is audited by external auditors.
In its fundraising, Biovision is committed to the ethical guidelines of "Swissfundraising".
Donations to Biovision are tax-deductable in Switzerland, and maybe in other countries depending on tax laws. Biovision has obtained a legal opinion that it is equivalent to a Section 501(c)(3) public charity in the US.

Hailey may soon be set to harness the wind for electricity. On Monday, the City Council held a first reading of a proposed ordinance change that would permit installation of small-scale wind-energy systems.
The ordinance would allow for free-standing and rooftop-mounted wind turbines in the Business, Limited Industrial, Airport and SCI-Industrial zones.
Hailey Planner Mariel Platt told the council earlier this month that Hailey's average wind speeds range up to 14 mph across the town. She said a home turbine in areas where winds average 6-12 mph could cover one-fifth to one-third of average household electrical needs.
Platt addressed concerns that rooftop mounted turbines can cause structural damage to buildings, raised earlier this month by engineer Cal Strope, in a staff report prior to the meeting. She stated that she had found little cause for concern about structural damage on commercial buildings.
"I found the evidence which discredits roof-mounted systems entirely to be minimal," she wrote.
The ordinance would allow for turbines up to 10 feet above maximum building height levels. One turbine will be allowed per single-ownership lot.
The turbines would be allowed on a conditional-use basis, taking into account wind speed readings on the proposed site as well as alternate sites on a particular lot.
If the turbine is not used or goes out of service for any reason, the city could terminate the conditional-use permit.
Building permits, including the stamp of approval from a licensed structural engineer, would be required before installing a wind turbine.
There will be two more public readings of the wind turbine ordinance before it becomes city law.
