A Saint on Death Row: The Story of Dominique Green (Hardcover)
On October 26, 2004, Dominique Green, thirty, was executed by lethal injection in Huntsville, Texas. Arrested at the age of eighteen in the fatal shooting of a man during a robbery outside a Houston convenience store, Green may have taken part in the robbery but always insisted that he did not pull the trigger. The jury, which had no African Americans on it, sentenced him to death. Despite obvious errors in the legal procedures and the protests of the victim's family, he spent the last twelve years of his life on Death Row.
When Cahill found himself in Texas in December 2003, he visited Dominique at the request of Judge Sheila Murphy, who was working on the appeal of the case. In Dominique, he encountered a level of goodness, peace, and enlightenment that few human beings ever attain. Cahill joined the fierce fight for Dominique's life, even enlisting Dominique's hero, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, to make an historic visit to Dominique and to plead publicly for mercy. Cahill was so profoundly moved by Dominique's extraordinary life that he was compelled to tell the tragic story of his unjust death at the hands of the state.
A Saint on Death Row will introduce you to a young man whose history, innate goodness, and final days you will never forget. It also shines a necessary light on America's racist and deeply flawed legal system. A Saint on Death Row is an absorbing, sobering, and deeply spiritual story that illuminates the moral imperatives too often ignored in the headlong quest for justice.
About the Author
THOMAS CAHILL is the author of five volumes in the Hinges of History series: "How the Irish Saved Civilization," "The Gifts of the Jews," "Desire of the Everlasting Hills," "Sailing the Wine-Dark Sea," and "Mysteries of the Middle Ages." They have been bestsellers not only in the United States but also in countries ranging from Italy to Brazil. He and his wife, Susan, also a writer, divide their time between New York City and Rome.
Praise For…
"There are many ways to tell the tragic story of America's death rows. Tom Cahill has chosen to show -- through the extraordinary life of one man -- that God is always working everywhere and can bring the most beautiful soul to maturity in even the most horrifying circumstances. If you read his story, you will never forget Dominique Green, nor will you ever feel the same way about our courts, our prisons, and our criminal justice system. This book is a life-changer."
—Sister Helen Prejean, author of Dead Man Walking
"Dominique Green was a wonderful man whose life demonstrated the power of God to heal and transfigure even the most unlikely people and places. Who could have expected that Texas Death Row would be made into an avenue of divine grace? -- which is exactly what happened through Dominique's instrumentation. Though this is a book that ends in death, it does not end in despair. Read it and discover how even the obscenity of capital punishment can be transformed into an occasion of light and peace."
—Desmond Tutu, Archbishop Emeritus of Cape Town, South Africa
"A tremendously moving book--all the more effective because of the tempered voice with which Cahill narrates an unspeakable injustice. Dominique Green's personal and moral triumph, prior to his execution under the benighted legal processes of Texas, is portrayed with so much sensitivity, and the racial factor that Cahill emphasizes is conveyed so forcefully, that I expect A Saint On Death Row to become a classic in the growing struggle to cleanse this nation finally of the sin of the death penalty."
—Jonathan Kozol
"A deeply moving narrative about a man transformed as he faced an unjust execution."
—James H. Cone, author of Black Theology and Black Power and Martin & Malcolm & America: A Dream or a Nightmare?
"A Saint on Death Row is not the first book blasting the Texas criminal justice system, and it won't be last. But Cahill's book is one of the most compelling."
—San Antonio Express
"Cahill stimulates deep thought about good and evil, and he is an intelligent, engaging historian…. A Saint on Death Row is an affecting book."
—Dallas Morning News
"A Saint on Death Row tells, on one level, the Kafkaesque particulars of one young black man's transmogrifying journey through the justice system to its ultimate punishment. On another level, the book is the story of how a young black man held in solitary confinement 23 hours a day helped inspire a movement for an international moratorium on state-sanctioned executions, helped inspire a U.N. resolution against the death penalty, hosted a pilgrimage by South Africa's Archbishop Desmond Tutu to death row in Huntsville, Tex., and helped transform the lives of the other men with whom he shared death row.
Most powerful, however, is the story of redemption and forgiveness contained in this slim volume. In stunning testimony of the human heart's capability for forgiveness, Bernatte and Andre Lastrapes, the wife and son of the man Dominique Green was executed for allegedly having killed, spoke out about the injustice of Green's trial and bore witness to both Green's personal apotheosis and the inexorably tragic meaninglessness of his execution.
Cahill, author of the popular 'Hinges of History in the Western World' collection (including How the Irish Saved Civilization and The Gift of the Jews) does not write as a polemicist, an expert on the law, or as courtroom dramatist. With deceptively casual prose, Cahill writes of how he came to be personally involved with Green's case and, more deeply, with Green himself. More like a set of extended reflective journal entries—indeed, Cahill's prologue is him quoting from his own written first impressions upon initially meeting Green—the voice in A Saint on Death Row is without the bathos or plaintiveness of a mere death-penalty partisan. It is the voice of a layman looking on with growing disbelief at the machinery of the state as it moves toward taking the life of a young man….
Thomas Cahill's excellent book allows readers to meet Dominique Green and suggests that no one deserves to die like he did."
—Baltimore City Paper
"[P]repare for your level of disturbance to be pushed up a quantum step or two by Tom Cahill's new book, A Saint on Death Row, which mounts a powerful challenge to any notion that all is more or less OK with the administration of criminal justice in the US. Known for books like How the Irish Saved Civilization, The Gift of the Jews, and other charmingly erudite excursions into cultural history, Cahill has produced a very contemporary piece of reportage and observation in his new book. At the center of it is the 'saint' of the title, one Dominique Green, who, once you've gotten to know him in Cahill's pages, is not likely to slip very quickly from your memory.… [I]t's impossible to read Cahill's quiet, straightforward, entirely unforced portrait of Dominique without being moved by it."
—The Daily Beast
"You pick up a book that clocks in at 160 pages and you naturally assume it will be an easy read. But the story of Dominique Green is so tragic, so overwhelming and powerful that I'm not sure Cahill could've padded it even if he'd wanted to…. [T]his is not merely an academic account of miscarried justice. It's a person with a voice lending that voice to someone who has been dehumanized, debased and locked away in a cage to rue the steadily loudening drumbeat of his impending execution…. Cahill's central question lingers like the burn of stomach acid in the back of one's throat: What did we gain—what?—by killing him?"
—Paste Magazine
"An impassioned, very personal plea against racism, poverty and the death penalty."
—Publishers Weekly

Nigel Farage refuses to rule out shock RETURN to Conservatives
NIGEL FARAGE has refused to rule out whether or not he will be rejoining the Tories once UKIP elects its new leaders.
The Brexit-architect appeared evasive on Tuesday when he was asked if he would once again join forces with the Tories under Theresa May's leadership now that Britain had voted to leave the European Union.
Mr Farage, who had been a life-long supporter of the Conservatives, quit the party in protest in 1992 when then Prime Minister John Major signed the Maastricht Treaty.
After abandoning the Tories, the out-spoken politician made it his life mission to once against see Britain free from Brussels' rule and become one of the founding members of Ukip in the early 1990s.
From 1994, Mr Farage campaigned for UKIP in European and Westminster Parliamentary Elections unsuccessfully until he was elected MEP for South East England in the 1999 European Parliament election – a position he has held ever since.
Nigel Farage appeared evasive when asked if he would rejoin the Conservative Party
And 12 years after helping to create the anti-establishment party, Mr Farage was elected leader of Ukip in 2006.
Despite being ridiculed by both the liberal media and major political parties in Westminster, the party's momentum grew and grew culminating in June's historic vote to leave the EU.
Having achieved his life-long long goal of regaining Britain's sovereignty, Mr Farage resigned as Ukip leader on July 4 this year.
Mr Farage, who is functioning as interim-leader of Ukip until it elects its new leader, has now refused to say whether or not he will be rejoining the Conservative Party in order to help with the Brexit process and its dealings with new US president Donald Trump.
We'll have to see what happens
Speaking to Sky News he said he still had reservations about Mrs May's ability to make good on the vow that "Brexit means Brexit" after she failed to deliver on her promises as Home Secretary to reduce immigration to the UK.
Mr Farage said: "Well no, I'm not totally convinced they are actually going to deliver, let's see what happens.
"Look, I wish Mrs May well as Prime Minister, I really genuinely do.
"My slight concern is that she was Home Secretary for six years, made a series of big promises and even bigger speeches about immigration numbers and yet presided over almost record numbers coming into the country."
He added: "So we'll have to see what happens."
The Eurosceptic's refusal to answer if he will be rejoining the Tories came as he blasted the government for not wanting to use him in its dealings with President-elect Trump.
Mr Farage became the first foreign politician to meet with the President-elect over the weekend.
However, Mrs May has made it clear she does not what the Uk interim leader involved in any dealings with Mr Trump and the US Government.
Speaking to Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid on Good Morning Britain on ITV, he said: "I supported Mr Trump through thick and thin in that campaign, I was loyal to him and that is why he saw me.
"Now, I am not in the government but I do have a relationship with him and some of his team."

On June 15,2009, the claimant, age 98, was a patient in a nursing home in New Bedford Massachusetts. On this date , the claimants family took her outside the facility for lunch. Prior to leaving the nursing home the family requested that the staff disengage the chair alarm that was attached to the claimant's wheelchair so as to prevent the alarm from activating while they were outside the facility. Upon the family's return, they notified the staff that the alarm was disengaged and that it needed to be reactivated. The staff failed to reattach the alarm. Several hours later the claimant fell out of her wheel chair and fractured her hip.
Brian Cunha & Associates filed a claim against the nursing home alleging that the facility committed malpractice when they failed to engage the wheelchair alarm and to provide proper supervision. The case settled within three weeks after the law office of Brian Cunha & Associates submitted their demand for settlement.

We need to speak out against child abuse
Child abuse is the physical, sexual, emotional mistreatment or neglect of a child. Child abuse can occur in a child's home or in the organisations, schools or communities the child interacts. There are four major categories of child abuse: neglect, psychological/emotional abuse, and child sexual abuse.
Child abuse is occurring in Jamaica right under the noses of the relevant authorities, yet nothing of any substance is being done to prevent these acts. Almost everywhere you go in and around the streets of Jamaica one will see these acts being played out. Women can be seen begging on the streets with a child in tow, or even having the kids walking around selling bag juice and other stuff.
Young teenage girls are being abused sexually on a daily basis by some of those who are employed in the public transport sector. The main perpetrators are the route taxi drivers and minibus crews. Apart from being sexually abused, their lives are also put at risk when they are crammed into these taxis and buses for maximum gain.
The very powerful song Concrete Angel is sung by Martina McBride and is a very touching one indeed. The main theme of the song is child abuse. The song tells a story about a little girl (named Angela Carter in the music video) who's trying to deal with abuse from her alcoholic mother. Some people, including the girl's teacher, seem to notice signs of abuse, but just try to ignore it. Ultimately, the little girl is killed when her mother beats her to death in a drunken rage.
Situations like this happen regularly and will continue to occur if the relevant authorities keep sitting around waiting for someone to lodge a report. Teachers, in particular, need to be more aware and sensitive to any unusual cuts and bruises that children go to school with. Any sign of physical abuse should be reported immediately to the police or the Child Development Agency.
The police should start cracking down on paedophiles who go around parading as legitimate providers of public transportation. Family members and neighbours should begin to report suspicious activities to the authorities, where children are concerned. Most sexual abuse offenders are acquainted with their victims; they are relatives of the child, most often brothers, fathers, mothers, uncles or cousins. There are other acquaintances such as friends of the family, babysitters, or neighbours. Strangers are often not the offenders in most child sexual abuse cases.
Child abuse is a complex phenomenon with multiple causes, and understanding the causes of abuse is crucial to addressing the problem. We owe our children an obligation, whether they are ours or not. Until children are fit to function as self-supporting and informed adults, we have an obligation not to take advantage of their defencelessness so as to inflict damage, or to demand their submission to acts that are not in their best interests.

today they were supposed to upgrade equipment to get
min 5 meg down speed, or max 20 meg down, if I want. They
changed appointment to next Friday, or sooner if equipment
gets in. Rhino communications bought the towers in this
area from my old ISP. I've been barely getting by with about
1.5 to 2.0 meg down speed for years, which isn't terrible, but
needs to be better.
They have an antenna on top of the house, aimed at a tower
10 miles or so away. I'll see how good the 5 meg down speed
does and then decide if I want to upgrade further to 10, 15,
or 20 meg. Each additional increase is $10.00. I can hardly
This type of internet could work for a lot of areas. Yesterday,
I read a story about an area, where a realtor had to lower
the price of a house by $60,000.00 because the ISP wouldn't
extend coverage 200 feet, and buyers wanted high speed
Would you be happy with 5 meg down, or would you want

Re: Upgrade from ISP
Very interesting! I certainly hope your results are different from
mine. I have a wireless ISP (sounds like what you are describing) but
the prices are ~$50/mo for 3 MB down, ~$100/mo for 5 MB down..... I
have the 5 MB plan, but seldom get even 3 MB measured. The only
alternatives are satellite (I had HughesNet since before it was called
that) and it was sometimes slower than dialup; or 4G cellular which is
very expensive if you use > 10 GB/month.
Right now the ISP "says" they're moving some users off the device I
connect to on the tower so my service should improve. (I'm about a
mile away from the tower, heavily wooded.) There's no way we could get
a signal 10 miles away. Probably not even 4G cellular.
The service my ISP recommends for speed checks is
(just in case you want to see if your service improves or not).

And for this crappy service I'm paying just over $100 / month!
I'm seriously considering 4G cellular as an alternative which will
raise my cost to about $160/month.

Re: Upgrade from ISP
We don't have many trees in this area, so there are some
people who have antennas pointed at towers 18 miles away.
Maybe your ISP will be bought out. ERF used to tell me they
were taking some people off the tower so mine would be faster.
Hopefully, you can get a better ISP soon.
I've thought about getting Virgin Mobile Broadband to go,
for when I drive. It's no contract.
Hughes SUX. I didn't always feel that way. Back in the 90's,
I had one way Hughes, before they got duplex. Everything went
good for a few years, then, the LNB went out.
It's a long story, if I told you everything that happened over
three months. Long story short, the technicians refused to let
me speak to a supervisor, until I had to threaten to drive to
Germantown, Penn. and start beating the crap out of everyone
who works for Hughes. Finally, I was able to. He said (Hell,
they sent me the wrong LNB, and I should have stayed on the
original satellite).
I told them where they could stick it, and quit Hughes for good.
I don't know if you can tell, but I'm still pissed. When a
company goes to that much trouble to piss me off, I don't
get over it.
Right now my download speed is almost the same as yours
Download Speed: 792 kbps (99 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 640 kbps (80 KB/sec transfer rate)
Latency: 176 ms
I used to have ERF wireless.
Now my ISP is Rhino Communications
Rhino Communications charges $43.26 for 5 meg, then additional
$10.00 for each increase, 10, 15, 20 meg.
They don't list prices on the web.
we have a 4g ISP called Fuego Wireless
Max 3 Mbps for $58.95
There's a new wireless company in town
Prices are listed on website. They want a big deposit,
depending on contract length.

Just for the heck of it I tried your link. Measures me at 38 Gbps down
and 10 Gbps up. My (cable) ISP account is rated at 'up to' 50 Gbps but
I've never gotten close to that. Still, I feel for you guys. I'd hate

I also had plans to make a wall hanging for myself and have yet to do ever do it. So I'm taking the advise of a dear quilting friend Donna (aka Quilt Pixie) who said that this year I really should make something for myself and not keep pushing this project to the back burner. So I have pulled out my fabrics for my Bird of Paradise Convergence Quilt. I'm leaning on going with the brighter orange fabric but I may end up cutting both orange fabrics and testing both in the design to see which one really is the best.
I likely won't actually get started on cutting fabric until the weekend, but will do the prep work (ironing and starching) before.
Another long time friend and recent quilter Sue from Long Island and I have decided to attend the Ricky Tims Quilt Seminar being held in Hyannis, MA at the beginning of Sept. The seminar also includes Alex Anderson from HGTV's Simply Quilts and Libby Lehman a well known machine quilter and author of Threadplay. http://www.rickytims.com/seminars/
I did a blog search to see what other people had to say about these seminars especially after my disasters last fall and it sounds like these were a good hit. I didn't find any negative comments and I think it will be a nice change just to be able to go and listen to 3 experts and not have to buy a ton of fabric, then drag a sewing machine and a ton of supplies. It will be a refreshing change from the regular quilting seminars/conferences and fun to get together with a friend that I haven't seen in awhile.

Plantus Labellus Ikealloides
Plant labels are annoying things. Flimsy bits of plastic that get lost, break, or become illegible, or just blow away. I'd like to have lovely slate ones, or nice pretty wooden painted ones, but like so many other things I'd like, I just never get round to making them and I certainly don't want to be paying out the money charged at fancy garden shops for them. So I was very pleased with myself when I came up with the idea of re-using something which would otherwise have been binned.
I recently installed a new venetian blind**in the bathroom, and since it came from Ikea, where everything is one size, it was miles too long and I had lots of slats leftover. The slats seem to be made of some kind of wood, or mdf, or but are thin enough to be reasonably easy to cut. They are white and about two inches or so wide, so ideal for large, legible, garden labels. I was worried that they might disintegrate in water so I tried cutting one to size, and have soaked it in a glass of water for a few days and so far it looks ok.
So hopefully, this year, no more peering at illegible bits of plastic and wondering whether it was peas or beans I sowed in that bed last week.
**We are very lucky to have views from our windows onto open fields, with nothing more than the odd dog walker passing by. However this applies to our bathroom windows as well, which are clear glazed, not frosted as most modern bathrooms are, I suppose because no one went past the garden hedge when the house was built. But the village has grown and there are more people about than there used to be, and a not insignificant number of dog walkers pass through the field on the other side of our hedge, especially first thing in the morning. Anyway, to avoid giving an inadvertent surprise, not to say a heart attack, to Major Fanshawe as he passes a gap in the hedge whilst taking his early morning constitutional, a venetian blind seemed to be the solution.

This blog is an employment resource for professionals seeking jobs in the emerging field of agricultural and food law. It emphasizes non-traditional employment opportunities instead of legal practice opportunities. The LL.M. Program in Agricultural & Food Law at the University of Arkansas School of Law is pleased to offer this service. These posts are for informational purposes only; we do not make any representations regarding the employment offered.

Executive Director, University of Arizona Natural Resources Users Law & Policy Center
The University of Arizona College of Agriculture & Life Sciences (CALS) and James E. Rogers College of Law have partnered to create the University of Arizona Natural Resources Users Law & Policy Center (NRULPC). The center will include a Law Practice Group to address the currently unmet legal needs of ranchers, farmers, miners and others whose business involves the use of natural resources and whose business often takes place on "working landscapes." The Center will also support research, education and outreach to the resource users community. The Executive Director will report to the head of Cooperative Extension for all non-legal functions and the Dean of the College of Law for all law related functions.
Duties & Responsibilities
Implement, manage and provide leadership to the NRULPC, in three phases:
Phase 1. Engage stakeholders and the full range of CALS and university experts in natural resources to determine priorities for the NRULPC. The NRULPC will provide private and public lands natural resource users information and assistance when they face complex legal environments. The Executive Director will be tasked with determining which issues to focus on first based upon the needs of the industry.
Phase 2. Hire a Legal Director to establish a Public Interest Law Clinic within the Center that will offer College of Law and CALS students experiential learning opportunities by providing legal services and policy advice to resource users. The clinic will serve as a foundation to seek external funding to expand into the second phase.
Phase 3. Work with the Legal Director to establish a Law Practice Group, which is akin to a law firm, that will employ post-graduate legal fellows who can provide more advanced representation as full time lawyers and who will become a new source of legal expertise for the commercial world in this broad area, as well as CALS students whose expertise can inform policy work and research—this will be a clear contribution to Arizona's and the nation's economic development.
Collaborate with stakeholders, internal and external to the University.
Design and implement a consultative structure to ensure regular feedback and input from intra- and extra-mural stakeholders.
Report quarterly to intra- and extra-mural stakeholders.
Work with the Development teams in Law and CALS, develop and implement a fundraising plan so that the NRULPC is self-sustaining within three years of inception.
Travel will include face-to-face meetings, conferences, law/policy meetings, workshops, etc. The person will coordinate and attend face-to-face meetings with stakeholders such as Mining, Ranching and Forestry businesses. Plus attend law/policy meetings with the following types of agencies: Farm Bureau, Family Farm Alliance, Agribusiness and Water Council, Arizona Cotton Grower's Association, the Arizona Cattleman's Association (travel will be state-wide, but also throughout the West, and perhaps DC). Selected candidate should provide their own transportation.
Other duties as assigned.

Not the devils but the landing party.

How do you make 'work' more fun for middle school students? It can be quite the challenge! My middle school students function at an elementary school level in many areas, but as they've gotten older, they aren't as interested in board games as they once were.
Using dice has come to my rescue on more than one occasion when dealing with disinterested middle schoolers! Of course, elementary school students will love these games, too!
The basic, open ended game can be used for almost any goal. It is so easy to keep around and pull out when students are refusing to work. All you have to do is divide a sheet of paper into 6 sections and number each box.
The students can even do this themselves, choosing their color paper and deciding which of their targets will go in each box. Besides the fact that giving students choices can make them more willing to participate, the act of deciding gets them thinking and talking about what they have been learning in speech. Each student can be giving different types of responses and still play the same game!
In the photo, the student on the left is practicing /r/ in the final position with pictures from Rainy Day 'R'. To get even more productions, have the student say the word the number of times that is rolled! The student on the right is using pronouns to tell about the pictures from Articulation & Language Games: Talk About 'SH.'
Cover a die with red and green paper on the sides and put tape over it. Students roll the die and keep producing words with their sounds until they make a mistake or roll a stop. Then it is the next student's turn. While they are waiting, they can place checks in the boxes, color or dot them if you keep track of how many productions they did. The first student to get 100 correct productions wins!
I made this into a freebie for you! Get it here.
This is a great visual way to build math skills for co-ordinates and quadrants and your students won't even realize it! Pictured in the photo are my Homonyms: Multiple Meanings D Bingo cards, but you can use any bingo game.
After responding about the target in the matching box, they write their initials in the box. Any time that they fill in an adjacent box, they connect them. The person who connects three, or has the most pairs, is the winner.
In the photo, you can see vocabulary for friendship qualities from my Social Skills: Friendship Rules packet. You can use this idea with any kind of work, though!
Use any pictures that contain some story elements and will get your students started. In the photo, you see some Spring actions from my Spring Adapted Book and Activities Set. Students roll the dice and tell the information they want to add to their story. Orally, I have done this to help my students practice formulating correct sentence structures, but you could have students write their answers and form a written narrative, too. When they have figured out all of the elements, it is time to tell the story!
You can see how quick and easy it is to do this in the photo that shows this activity from my Homonyms: Multiple Meanings B set. I had them figure out the word when given the definition and then use it in a sentence to show that meaning.
The photo shows this idea using action photos from my Spring Adapted Books & Activities packet along with a question spinner, found in my Articulation & Language: Talk About 'SH' set. Students roll to get the picture to use and then spin the spinner to ask or answer using that question word about their picture.
My students often need thinking time before responding, so I like to do one round where everyone rolls and another round where they take turns giving their answers. It may take a little more time, but I have found that the added co-operativeness and willingness to do the activity for longer compensate for the extra time! Do you use dice in therapy?

Dear Roseola:
I had to write and let you know how much Evie and I enjoyed your stay with us. Your unexpected arrival at 2am last Monday morning was indeed a surprise, foretelling of your unpredictable but exciting nature. You do like to boldly sound your arrival, don't you! We agree that presenting Evie with a 102 degree temperature was just the thing to start things off.
Right away I knew you would be formidable company, sure to keep Evie and me on our toes. Not content with our usual guests' gifts of Tylenol and cool cloths, your insistence on something more robust was an impressive challenge, to say the least. Luckily, you were content to amuse yourself with our meager offerings until the Motrin arrived. I'm so glad we were able to finally satisfy you! After all, it's always been a top priority of mine to keep my guests comfortable.
And what a treat to find that Evie simply adores having a Tylenol dropper jammed down her throat and a thermometer thrust up her bottom every four hours! I could tell she enjoyed it so by the way she completely and thoroughly eschewed all protest. Surely that experience is stamped indelibly in her memory, for it is in mine!
I have to say, Evie's and my favorite part of your visit was the way you weren't afraid to "go all out" to entertain us by ramping Evie's temperature up to 104 degrees by Monday afternoon. You do understand that I just had to call our pediatrician's office to boast about the fun we were having. I couldn't keep it to myself! Evie hopes you will excuse her rudeness that afternoon, though. She was so overwhelmed by your talent, her only recourse was to slump lethargically against my chest and suck her thumb. I was truly amazed at her flushed little face and unfocused, glassy eyes – what a show!
How quickly the time passed, and by Thursday you were gone. Your parting gift of a rash on Evie's neck and torso was indeed generous and we loved the seasonal red color you chose! And how thoughtful of you to make it non-itchy. We were so touched and commented several times that it's just like you to think of small but important details like that.
And, after happy retrospection, we've decided to completely agree with you that four long nights of fitful, broken sleep is almost like Christmas morning!
We humbly request that you turn your thoughts to us for an instant as you travel onward. We do so fondly and often think of our time spent together with you. Dear Roseola! How the mist does gather as we remember those days…
As always, we remain your –
Katie and Evie
P.S. Please tell your dear friend Chicken Pox that we will keep an ample supply of Motrin on hand for his visit. We know now how to please!
P.P.S. Kiss our ass, Roseola.

Episode 03 (6/10 Good)
I'm getting pretty bored. There's hardly ever anything interesting to see; the shots are plain and far away. The backgrounds are even worse. The director has no skills when it comes to making the story exciting through manipulating the look of the show. Baseball could have several exciting shots if the right techniques are used. Ookiku Furikabutte was excellent at that! The creators should watch that anime and learn a thing or two. I am glad Koume has a potential love interest; though, they could have done more with the rendezvous condition.

Being a nanny was my dream job. I loved playing with kiddos and watching them grow up and learn more and more things everyday. I see the progress they make and I fall in love. Kids amaze me. They become such smart independent mini geniuses and it astonishes me. Being a nanny is the most rewarding job in the world and I would love the opportunity to do it again.

I started my first job babysitting for a family friend at age 12 for a 2 year old next door. I continued babysitting for a few years and then I decided to nanny. I continued to nanny onward for years and also took on a second job as a teachers assistant at a corporate daycare for a little while. I also now have my own little one about 9 months old and she is my little angel. All in all, I have a very detailed background with children and would love the opportunity to watch over yours.

Beautiful Condo! Excellent service from My Vacation Haven! Will book with MVH next spring! Special thanks to Marina and Brittany!
We had a super time! The condo was very clean. Service was wonderful and responsive to address a few missing kitchen items.
Would highly recommend.
Condo was very clean and views of the ocean were great
The Layout Of This Condo Is Very Nice And I LOVED The Fact That Ours Had 2 King Beds In Both Bedrooms. Plus There Was A Half Bathroom Coming Off The Dining/Living Room Area Which Makes It Convenient. The Kitchen Was Open And Great In Size Not Giving You A Claustrophobic Feeling...Which I Loved! Only Complaint - Ice Dispenser Didn't Work But They May Have Not Been Aware So I Did Leave A Comment For Them To Get This Repaired. We Had Access From The Living Area And Master Bedroom Area To The Balcony. The Condo Was Nicely Decorated As Well. I Would Definitely Stay Here Again!
Thank you, Mark, for a lovely place to stay during our vacation. The place was all it was advertised to be. Great view, comfy beds, and clean. The pool area was beautiful and always well-kept. The hot tub was very popular. Easy private access allowed us to take our quiet am walks on some of the most beautiful beaches on the Gulf. Have recommended your place to our family and friends. And will most definitely love to stay there again.
Our family stayed the week of 9/20/09. The condo had a great kitchen and unit was spacious for our family of 4 adults. Great view from our balcony, the Gulf had beautiful water and Westwinds location in Sandestin Resort was the best in Destin.
Perfect condo, we would be happy to stay again. Do
you have any 3 bedroom condos that you rent out
because our condo was the nicer of the 2 we rented
the other from someone else and we would be
interested in a 2 and 3 bedroom for a week next year,
as close together as possible. Please let us know

Skip to comments.Iowahawk: Kofi Talk
Posted on 12/12/2006 8:23:58 PM PST by IowaHawk
[ed. note - found in a remodeling dumpster at 48th and FDR Drive: first draft of Kofi Annan's valediction]
Nearly 50 years ago, when I arrived in Minnesota as a student fresh from Africa, I had much to learn. For example, the concept of connecting flights, because I was actually supposed to be going to California. My cab had already plowed through several miles of Minneapolis snowdrifts before I realized my horrible mistake, but I decided to make the best of it. Over the next few years I adapted to the quaint arctic customs of the indigenous Minnesotans -- wearing their colorful earmuffs, training my gag reflex to against their cruel lutefisk. Still, lesson learned: I vowed, with God as my witness, that I would never fly coach again. All my life since has been a learning experience. Now I want to pass on five other lessons I have learned during 10 years as secretary general of the United Nations, as well as CEO of KofiCo Oil Vouchers Ltd.
First, in today's world we are all responsible for each other's security. Against such threats as nuclear proliferation, climate change, global pandemics or terrorist accountants plotting UN audits from their safe havens in failed superpowers, no nation can make itself secure by seeking supremacy over others, and their private financial records. Only by working together can we hope to achieve lasting security for ourselves, and perhaps a nice comfortable villa in Switzerland. Lets just say that you scratch my back, Ill scratch yours.
But when we look at the murder, rape and starvation still being inflicted on the people of Darfur, we realize that our teams of fun-loving security back-scratchers can sometimes be a PR headache. Thats why we must also summon the political, economic and marketing muscle to keep ahead of the news cycle. Boys will be boys, and in the grand scheme of things, do a few rambunctious UN troops really matter when all the planets children are under the looming threat of climate change? I mean, what's with that? Do you people hate the planets children or something?
.... for the rest of the Kofi klatch, Click Here
Take care, pal, and keep doin' it!.................FRegards
(laughing out loud ....)
Great !!
Loved this.
Dang it, Hawk, coffee on my monitor and I can't tell anyone around here why... BTT.
I dont see anything in the news about a nuclear holocaust or asteroid strike: which is to say, whered everyone go?
One of your best!

December 2016 Community Meeting
Welcome to the last Deis Community meeting of 2016! We've had a busy year. Together, we finished moving Workflow from CoreOS Linux + Fleet to Kubernetes, shipped a stable Kubernetes Helm, have started working towards a Kubernetes-native service broker in Steward, and launched our full portfolio of service and support options for Kubernetes.
Paired with the explosion of Kubernetes over the last year, the Deis mission has never been more exciting:
- Deis Workflow: The best way to manage 12-factor applications on Kubernetes
- Helm: The best way to manage Kubernetes-native applications
- Steward: The best way to find, provision and use on and off-cluster services
In short, Deis open source projects make Kubernetes easy to use.
Focusing on Workflow, let's take a closer look at what the last month has brought us:
Workflow 2.9 Release
Workflow 2.9 release is the first release on our new monthly release cadence that we discussed in the last community meeting. A few release highlights for 2.9:
- New
deis labelscommand (thanks @zinuzoid!) lets developers add arbitrary Kubernetes labels to their applications
- The Postgres component now makes a full backup on container shutdown, decreasing recovery time
- Non-routeable apps no longer need to specify a PORT if the app isn't using a port
The Kubernetes health dashboard included in the grafana setup is a bit fancier now
All base images have been rebuilt with latest security fixes
As part of continuing to consume and produce more community projects, the Deis Docker registry proxy has been submitted upstream.
The complete Workflow 2.9 changelog is available here.
Good night Helm Classic. Hello Kubernetes Helm!
Now that Helm has cut a stable release the recommended installation method for Workflow is via Kubernetes Helm. The 2.9 release is the last release that will include charts for both Kubernetes Helm and Helm Classic.
If you installed Workflow with Helm Classic, we also created a migration tool that will transparently import your Workflow resources into Helm. After running the migration tool, clsuter operators will be able to manage and upgrade Workflow using Kubernetes Helm.
For documentation and examples, check out the migration tool on GitHub.
Wrapping up Deis v1
Deis Workflow saw its first stable release in June of 2016. The team has been hard at work adding new features, simplifying administration and management.
Deis v1 will see its final release the Week of Feb 13, 2017. If there are any patches the community would like to see included in the final release, file an issue and make sure to cc @mboersma.
Meet the Community
It is always fun to meet folks from the Deis community! In a no-notice, pop-quiz style, Seth Goings invited some new faces to introduce themselves and talk a little bit about how they are using Deis projects. Thanks to Jeremy Shimko, Matt Knox, and Jetsada Machom for saying hello!
We had a blast, and will make sure we keep a meet and greet section in the Agenda for next month.
Click Play
Until Next Time
Going forward, we want to re-focus the monthly community meeting on Deis Workflow and its roadmap, so join us Thursday, January 5th, 2016. If you like calendar reminders, click, click, click!
See everyone in January 2017!

The Disciplinary and Standards Committee (DSC)
The DSC was established by the TPO Council to deal with the small number of member agents who breach the relevant Codes of Practice and/or fail to meet their obligations as TPO members in other ways.
A range of disciplinary action can be taken including expulsion from the Ombudsman scheme.
The Ombudsman refers cases to the DSC where she has found a serious breach of the Codes of Practice or where a registered firm fails to pay an award, following unsuccessful efforts made to explain their membership obligations.
Other referrals come from TPO's Membership Compliance Unit and sometimes from the media, regulators and professional bodies.

I had run into the craft store for a few supplies (we recently moved to Frankfurt so I was craving something familiar.) and I came across the felting section. I quickly snapped up a foam block, a few needles, and an assorted bag of wool. (all for less than 15 euros) That next day (Sunday) I felted the entire day. I didn't really start out with a plan I just looked around on Pinterest for some "pinspiration" and started felting.
Now first of all let me say...I'm totally not an expert in needle felting. That said, this little project turned out so much better than I could have hoped for.
|The Wonky House
It also helped me see where I might have gone wrong before. So here are a few felting tips based on my (totally unprofessional) experience.
1. Use the material. Seriously. Last time I remember thinking "I don't want to use too much wool" and that was totally stupid. You're supposed to use it. Quit being cheap!
|Interior detail.
2. If you're making something 3 dimensional with walls and you think they're thick enough...they're not. Double the thickness and you may come close. With this house I realized after I attached the walls to the base that they were not thick enough. I "cheated" this by making another wall section and adding detail for the inside and putting those layers together. It would have been waaaay simpler to just make them super thick to start with.
|Two walls stuck together.
3. Use quality wool. Now, I'm not saying you should spend a fortune here (my wool was only 7 euros) but you want it to look like it came off an actual sheep. The roving I had purchased in the US was not the same quality I bought here. It was too shiny and too "perfect". This stuff LOOKS like it came of a sheep and was dyed funky colors. I could have totally imagined this but the wool here looks less processed.
4. The more you mess with it...the worse it looks. Less is totally more with this free form stuff. I like tightly felted beads as much as the next guy, but structures look better with less felting. (again my unprofessional opinion)
|I really like the furry little details.
5. I think the most important thing to remember is that you'll probably suck at first. How unfair would it be if you were just great at everything on the first try? Try it again. And again. And again if you have to to get the hang of it. The wool really isn't that expensive.
Those are really the main lessons I learned with felting. It was so much fun and I can't wait to get more wool (my house needs furniture). And I'm thinking I want to try one of those play mats too. I'll keep you posted of course.
Oh and don't poke your finger!

The sexiest thing a man has ever said to me was,
"I love that I can still smell you on my beard."
This drove me wild. The thought that he could smell me on his face the day after putting it between my thighs made me hot, it made me want him to want more.
The day before was something that I think only happens very few times in a person's life. A day where it is spent doing only what they love, and given to them by someone who does not necessarily mean the world to them, but that can offer it. A pampering of sorts, and oh it was good.
We both loved to ski so we spent the day exploring the local ski resort, being playful and thinking we were exhausting one another with real exercise on the cold mountain. It was intimate, in a public sort of way. We would rush down the mountain, following one another but not speaking. We would let each other warm our hands up on the lift by putting them inside one another's jackets. He would whisper in my ear how much I surprised him with my skills on skis, and how sexy that was.
This man was much older than me, I felt like a goddess being wanted by someone almost 10 years my senior. It was not like the men my age, it was so sophisticated and romantic; even with snot running down my frozen face in 10 layers of waterproof clothing that was still soaking wet.
The day had turned to dusk and my legs were jello from trying to keep up with him, and I was starving. He treated me to tacos and sangria, and then offered me one last thing. A movie, at his place, "So we can warm up".
When we arrived to his house, I immediately asked for something dry and warm to put on. I could not stand my frozen ski pants any longer. He handed me a t-shirt and I locked myself in the bathroom. I ran hot water over my toes and hands while I thought about the day... about him.
His name was Zacc, he was 27 going on 28 and I was barely 18. He seemed so put together, a house, a car, a job, money, and a whole future.What did he want with me? Did I excite him? Did I, give him company? As I slipped into the oversize t-shirt I realized, that was all I had. That and my panties... however, I was not embarrassed.
When I walked down the stairs after not finding Zacc upstairs, I found a plethora of blankets on the floor in a makeshift bed with too many pillows and a little tray of lemonade and hot cocoa. Zacc was hunched over what seemed to be a few different movies he could not decide between. I giggled at the sight and felt like a princess jumping onto the blanket bed.
"I was not sure if you liked hot cocoa so I also grabbed some lemonade!"
I thanked him and peeked at him over the rim of my cup as I sipped the warm chocolate and closed my eyes as I let it sink down into my belly. I could still feel his eyes on me, so I sighed and expressed my gratitude. He seemed pleased.
Before the play menu appeared for whatever movie he had selected, we were already engaged in a wrestling match with our tongues and limbs. He was so warm and his beard scratched at my skin as his lips moved furiously about my body. Pulling hard at the t-shirt collar to get to my neck and moaning deep into my collar bones. I felt wild.
As I grabbed at his sweat pants, he pulled away and looked at me with eyes the color of storm clouds. I was lying back on my elbows, legs spread from where he was between them grinding his pelvis against mine. We were both breathing heavy, slowly catching our breath as we sat in silence. I let my elbows down and went to say something... but before the first word escaped my lips, Zacc grabbed me by my hip and pulled me high onto his chest so that his face was nestled between my thighs. He put his mouth against my panties and sighed a heavy hot breath on my mound. I gasped and lost control of my body.
He held me tight against him, I was shocked at the position I was in. I had never had a man handle me this way. He was rough, but considerate, and hungry but caring. He continued milking me over my panties till he teased me about how soaked they were.
"I can see through them now..."
He proceeded to kiss and tease my hot spot, paying attention to my reactions and teasing me relentlessly. After my panties had been removed, he continued to taste me. Moving so slowly and pleasuring me for what seemed like hours.
The light outside was gone now and all I could see was his masculine build outlined by the static of the TV from the inactivity. I felt drained, my body was like water. I could have lived in that moment forever. Zacc came back with a large cup of water, and a snack. We laid in that makeshift bed until my sea legs were gone and I was ready for round 2. I did not want to go home. This felt so good.

Friday evening has been reached once more. Here we are and yet again I am left curious as to where on earth the hours and days of this week have gone. Clearly they've disappeared right before my eyes but not because they've been wished away; I've been living... And to live with the knowledge that time is vastly passing one by quicker than ever before is both frightening and awakening at the same time. It is a reminder to both speed up and slow down. Curious. And even more-so to be aware that somewhere not too far away, there are people on the opposite end of the scale. A person who wishes time away in a place where each hour seems an eternity. Two people experiencing the same quantifiable space in an entirely different way. And not necessarily two people - perhaps even one person at different stages of life. I have certainly experienced those parts of life where wishing time away by counting down the hours and the days and making lists is the only way to gain a sense of meaning and productivity. The meaning is not a healthy meaning at all, but it is a meaning nonetheless.
So as I oddly remind myself to both speed up and slow down and live in the process, I attempt to figure out if this is even humanly possible. If one was to ever work this puzzle out and conclude, would it be known as 'balance?... This week has been filled with various happenings. Child and youth studies conference, work, more work, glorious sunshine, my first placement interview, and attempting to begin my new project, which I anticipate will take quite some dedicated practicing (the new 'skill' shall be revealed to my friends at New Years... hence the mystery). I have also been making time for people; catching up with those important to me, contacting family, and saying goodbye to a very wonderful and influential tutor.
I got some jobs done this morning and then made the most of my day off by spending the afternoon and evening with my sister - going on a road trip, picnic-ing, doing what sisters do. It's been a really relaxed afternoon. Of course the guilt kicked in and I decided I must go running this evening as it was too late and the gym was closing, but it turns out this was a really great call. I had the best and most enjoyable run yet. It was quite late evening and the cool breeze was perfect. I absolutely notice the difference in my body strength and stamina. To say a month ago I struggled to run 2.5 miles, yet tonight I ran 5 miles, thoroughly enjoyed each minute, and could have run more if the sun hadn't completely gone down! I may see no physical results - I see myself no thinner and no leaner, but something internal must be working based on this vast improvement.
Below are a few snaps from this afternoon with my dear sister. Plenty of sunshine, iced coffee, and love.

Fading fast here, feeling so fatigued and stuck in my chair again. Lightheaded and dizzy and when I move my eyes it feels like they are wobbling in my head. Have spoken with my GP and I am having a home visit BUT not until Monday.
Was talking with a lady on the Hashi 411 site on Facebook and she said she had the wobbly eye dizzy thing when she wasn't on enough t4. I am on 75 Levo and 10 t3 and even though it seemed to be OK when I was on that dose a few weeks ago, I am wondering, because of my high cortisol levels, whether it's just floating around in my bloodstream this time and not getting into the cells. I did have unbroken sleep last night.
Why I am feeling like this I don't know but I can barely stand. It's either because I am undernourished or it's the t4/t3. Am doing the 24hr urine collection test on Sunday which will tell me what the t4 and t3 is doing ie. whether just sitting in the blood or actually getting into my bloodstream. Am reluctant at the moment to alter dose because it might skew results
Just weighed myself and I am now underweight due to not feeling able to eat properly because of the anxiety/nausea from the high cortisol. Seriously think I am malnutrioned. My Thorne B Complex arrived today so have had one.
Someone on the Hashimoto's 411 page just recommended this to help me through. What do you think please before I order it>


text: |This was taken a few minutes before the official closing ceremony of UNIRAZAK Community Service at S.K. Libang , Ranau began. This dead plan (yup, plant. Not tree.) got my attention as I was taking pictures of the students lining up with our national flags in their hands for our Minister of Tourism, Dato' Masidi Manjun (if I'm not mistaken) The weather was hot and taking many shots of this just to get this angle was tiring but worth it. (and yeah, many students and teachers was wondering why the hell I was shooting a dead plant too lol but they were interested when I showed them the outcome which is this picture.) :)

HOWARD JENKINS, PLAINTIFF-APPELLANT,v.DOMINICK'S FINER FOODS, INC., DEFENDANT-APPELLEE.
Appeal from the Circuit Court of Cook County. Honorable Shelvin Louis Hall, Judge Presiding.
Released for Publication July 21, 1997.
The Honorable Justice Tully delivered the opinion of the court. Rakowski and McNULTY, JJ., concur.
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Tully
The Honorable Justice TULLY delivered the opinion of the court:
Plaintiff, Howard Jenkins, brought this action in the circuit court of Cook County against defendant, Dominick's Finer Foods, Inc. (hereinafter Dominick's), seeking damages for injuries to his foot sustained after stepping on one or two nails on defendant's premises. Following a jury trial, the circuit court entered judgment for defendant and against plaintiff based upon the jury's verdict. Plaintiff filed a motion for new trial which the circuit court denied. It is from that order that plaintiff appeals to this court pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 301 (155 Ill. 2d R. 301).
In October 1988, plaintiff was employed by A . N. Webber as an over-the-road truck driver. On October 3, 1988, plaintiff was assigned to deliver a load of dog food to Dominick's in Northlake, Illinois. Plaintiff arrived at Dominick's at 7 a.m., but was not able to unload his truck until 1 p.m. According to plaintiff, by the time he was able to unload his truck, damaged wooden pallets and other debris were on the ground overflowing from a 55-gallon garbage receptacle in the dock area. As plaintiff was walking around the trailer area preparing to unload his truck, he stepped on some shrink wrap that was covering a damaged pallet with one or two nails protruding from it. Plaintiff claims that one or two of the nails penetrated his shoe and punctured his right foot. Plaintiff allegedly reported the incident to a forklift operator and suggested that they clean up the area before someone gets injured. However, plaintiff did not report his injury to any other Dominick's employees. X.L. Feazell, a Dominick's employee, testified at his deposition that he learned of plaintiff's injury through his co-worker, O.C. Walton. Feazell testified that he recalled seeing an injured man sitting on a stack of pallets examining his foot.
On October 13, 1988, plaintiff developed flu-like symptoms and was hospitalized for six days in Tennessee, in order to receive intravenous antibiotics. Dr. Larry Scarborough diagnosed plaintiff with cellulitis in his lower right leg. Dr. Scarborough also found a recent puncture wound on the bottom of plaintiff's right foot. He testified that, since the puncture wound was in close proximity to the infection, it is assumed that the infection could have come from that wound. However, Dr. Scarborough also testified on cross-examination that plaintiff's hospital chart contained a notation by nurse Evelyn Jacobs referencing a statement made by plaintiff that his foot had been sore with an open wound for years.
In addition, plaintiff testified at his deposition that, while he was hospitalized in Tennessee, he took photographs of his leg which showed redness extending from his ankle to his thigh. At trial, he also testified that someone else had taken photographs of the bottom of his foot during that same hospital stay.
One day after his release from the hospital in Tennessee, plaintiff was again hospitalized for two or three days in South Carolina where he received the same treatment. In November 1988, plaintiff saw his family physician, Dr. Philip Zumwalt. Dr. Zumwalt testified that plaintiff complained of injuries to his right leg and foot and described to him an incident where he had stepped on two nails.
The following year, plaintiff was hospitalized twice after bumping his right leg and developing a fever. He was again placed on intravenous and oral antibiotics. Plaintiff continued to have periods of swelling during the next two years and continued taking medication.
In a separate cause of action, plaintiff filed a worker's compensation suit against his employer, A.N. Webber. A.N. Webber retained a physician, Dr. Joseph McConaughy, to examine plaintiff for purposes of the litigation. In addition to examining plaintiff, Dr. McConaughy recommended that plaintiff be fitted for a Jobst stocking (a custom-fit, thigh-high support stocking), have a venous Doppler examination and take certain medications. Dr. McConaughy also wrote prescriptions for medication for plaintiff. In response to defendant's interrogatory requesting the names and addresses of all physicians who have treated or consulted plaintiff regarding these injuries, plaintiff listed Dr. McConaughy. Defendant chose to use Dr. McConaughy as its expert witness.
At the trial in the case at hand, defendant requested and, over plaintiff's objection, the trial court tendered to the jury IPI 5.01 for plaintiff's failure to produce the photographs of his leg and foot taken while he was hospitalized in Tennessee. The trial court also denied plaintiff's request to bar the testimony of defendant's expert witness, Dr. McConaughy. In addition, the trial court deemed inadmissible as hearsay the statements about plaintiff made by Walton to Feazell. Following the ...

At last. I can die happy.
What, you ask, has brought about this eternal peace of mind? Elementary, my Dear Watson, I've discovered that Diana Macaulay reads (well, used to read before she found me out) my columns. For those of you born after 1980 so still attached to your mothers by the left nipple, let me explain. For decades (oops, sorry, Di) Diana Macaulay has been the most beautiful, intelligent and empathetic woman in Jamaica. Jamaica's Bo Derek (a "10"); every man's perfect woman; and, like it or not, the subject of every pimply nerd's wet dreams.
SHE's reading what I write? Oh happy day! But, no surprise (like with most Jamaican males), my happiness was premature. My peace much too short.
"A statue in the neighbourhood (What a t'ing!) seems to be misunderstood (yeah man!) I sing about it like I should (Sing yu song!) You know it's my livelihood (Yeah!)"
Now, she says my credibility is shot ("Setting Gordon Straight" October 22). Sob. And all because of two insignificant global dots called Goat Islands.
But the good news is she wants to set me straight. No problem at all. Diana can set me straight (does that mean I'm gay? hmmmmm) as often as she likes. The doors to The Hermit's Hole will be flung wide; the Old Ball and Chain banished to "Gym" who sets her straight daily. With apologies to the great Lloyd Lovindeer for some minor surgery to his lyrics:
"Happy people dey dance and prance way back to de statue at de entrance. It was really quite a sight to see such happiness in there that night. Happiness in de dark. Happiness in de dark."
Peter Espeut, her aide-de camp in the regular crying of environmental "Wolf!" also published a (mild) critique on Friday, October 18 but I'm sure he'll understand if his attention didn't cause the same excitement as Diana's.
Regarding the actual facts about the Goat Islands, although promising they were "setting Gordon straight" it turns out Diana and Peter agree with me. I wrote there were no iguanas on the Islands. Diana wrote "Great Goat Island is the one with the good iguana habitat – and no one has said there are currently iguanas there. What has been pointed out is the GOJ's 50-year plan to make Great Goat Island an iguana sanctuary, as it is there the predators can be effectively excluded."
So, as we sit here TODAY with the proposed port project before us and the financial hangman anxious to proceed, there are no iguanas to protect. Peter confirms this. Who seriously makes inflexible 50 year plans anymore? Iguana habitats can be developed elsewhere in Jamaica or the world and one is in fact being developed in the Cayman Islands.
I wrote fish were long eliminated by overfishing and the lion fish. Peter agrees but writes "With proper fisheries management, the fish stock will recover……………….." Diana didn't even bother to address the issue.
So, as we sit here TODAY with the proposed port project before us and the financial hangman anxious to proceed, there are no fish to protect. Fish sanctuaries can be established anywhere.
I wrote Coral reefs were already destroyed island wide. Peter couldn't contradict but wrote "…if we embark on serious reforestation and enforce our effluent discharge standards, the reefs will recover somewhat." Only "somewhat"? What has "effluent discharge standards" to do with Goat Islands? That must be enforced regardless of whether or not the Port is built. At least the already dead Coral reef will be surrendered to national economic progress not to dynamiting by some wealthy untouchable who needs a wider entry for his luxury yacht. Speaking of "effluent discharge standards" what'd Peter/Diana do to stop the construction of the Old Harbour JPS power plant? How does its "effluent discharge standards" match up to Peter's and Di's ideal?
C.mon man! As we sit here TODAY with the proposed port project before us and the financial hangman anxious to proceed, there's no coral reef to protect.
Diana wasn't so much about setting me straight on the Goat Islands as she was about hyping up the general environmental abuse that ought never to happen. So she produced typically shrill, rabid scaremongering like "By that token, there is no need to fix a sewage plant, in fact, we don't need sewage plants at all, let's just let excrement flow in gutters and gullies, and if there is a bit of a cholera outbreak, so what? The dark and diseased cities of the Industrial Revolution are fine. Rivers can catch fire, as the Cuyahoga did in the United States (US) in the 1960s. Fish stocks can crash, destroying a sustainable source of protein for 2.7 million people, and we should not lift a finger to reverse this trend."
Slow down Di. Breathe. Nobody wrote or proposed any of that. So why waste column inches on red herrings? Can we get back to the immediate issue namely Goat Islands?
As I said, Diana has really got her knickers in a twist about my perceived general opposition to environmentalists' work. She doesn't put up a serious defence of the Goat Islands except her reliance on the "law" that designates the area "protected". Di, the law is often exposed as an ass and in need of repeal or amendment as is the case here where little or nothing is in reality available for protection. Sometimes, protections are erected without need, resulting in extreme dissatisfaction:
"In de park, de statue was erected to remind us that we're emancipated. But they found out not everyone was satisfied with this erection."
Sometimes, protections are promised (like 50 year Iguana habitat plans) but are overcome by present emergencies and the protections one expected to see end up not ever being erected. This can be very frustrating for persons whose lives have been committed to environmental activism but who can't see any real progress or progress as they would want it.
"One frustrated old lady she didn't see what she came to see. She say de statue stood big and tall but she saw no erection at all."
Diana does use plenty space to say I've over-stated environmentalists' general obstructionism. According to Di, environmentalists' "…contention with regard to the Palisadoes Road was cost – it was a loan, not a grant…" But an article by Zadie Neufville in TERRAVIVA (October 26, 2010) reported the concerns of the time as I recall them:
"Scientists and local environmentalists accuse the NWA……and government's environment watchdog NEPA of ignoring likely impacts of planned coastal improvement work in the protected wetlands. The area is said to be home to more than 300 species of plants and animals, including six native species of cacti."
According to Diana, regarding north coast development "The Gran Bahia Principe Hotel was built in an area of wetlands and reefs that had long been proposed for protection and the large size of the hotel was thought to be of inappropriate scale; and that the public consultation was flawed (the court agreed in a ground-breaking and much-cited judgment). This location, by the way, had a very small beach, which was expanded and is now maintained by dredging."
And the problem is……….? Areas "proposed for protection" aren't protected. Didn't Di ask me to start with the law? Who thought the hotel was too big? Why should the hotel care? What is meant by "flawed" public consultation? Would "perfect" consultation (whatever that is) have changed anything? But, some admitted good news: a small beach has been expanded. Yay! The dig at the end "by dredging" means nothing unless the dredging is causing damage to previously environmentally viable reefs.
Both Peter and Diana tend to get carried away with their perfectly admirable environmental activism. Not every environmental downgrade is a disaster. What we need is balance. Fact: whatever the law says and compared to the real worldwide environmental threat, there's little left on or around Goat Islands to protect. What happens at Goat Islands will not add or subtract a tick or cross on the worldwide environmental checklist. We must balance the proposed port's growth potential against its minor environmental cost.
"What she searching for? (happiness) She wanna get it for sure (happiness) What she want out of life (happiness) Why she wanna be a wife (happiness)."
The great Trinidadian poet, Wayne Brown, who honoured Jamaica by living here for the last ten or so years of his life, used to postulate that Jamaicans were better poets than Trinidadians because we took things seriously and treated reverential things with reverence. Well, there's no better example of Jamaicans' ability with poetry than Lloyd Lovindeer (formerly of the Fabulous Flames) but reverence wasn't Lovindeer's strong suit. He isn't in any danger of taking anything too seriously.
Peter and Diana could learn a lot from Lovindeer. We can't spend our lives obsessing about every minor infraction especially at the expense of real economic growth. Here are some of the things Peter and Diana might be lobbying for that could help with what is very much a global crisis in a significant way without affecting Jamaica's chances at economic recovery. They could lobby for a ban on single use plastic bags. Recycling is a joke. These little pieces of plastic find themselves everywhere (food; blood; even into baby mothers' breast milk supply). Carelessly tossed plastic bags have killed more fish worldwide with leaked toxins that Chinese dredgers at Goat Islands could ever dream of matching.
Why won't Peter and Di tell Jamaica that all this fuss over which incompetent bidder should win the right to use more fossil fuel products to provide "cheaper" power is just so much baloney? I hope Peter and Di will join me in lobbying for the use of wind and solar power instead. Don't let any politician tell you it's impractical. Rubbish! It's all around us. Use it.
Peace and Love

I just had to buy this conversation piece
I just had to buy this conversation piece
Not to be rude but why do you think this sign is for Herman Goering St. ?
If it is Hermann Goring Strasse, it is not for the street in Berlin. I believe all of the Berlin street signs were blue with white lettering. There was probably a Hermann Goring St. in every town across Germany.
I would think if it a Street named after Hermn Goering would it no be Goering St ?
Have seen another white one, but with a dash between the words.
With all signs seen it is as Göring, not as Goering!
"Wir sollen auch unser Leben für die Brüder lassen" (1.Joh.3.16):
zum Gedächtnis Wilhelm Schenk. Er starb fürs Vaterland am 13. Juni 1916
For streets named after personalities, either the first name and the surname or just the surname are used, both either with or without titles such as Doktor, Professor, General, Bürgermeister etc. (if applicable).
Which style is used depends on what is customary in the respective municipality or town quarter and/or on which version sounds better or is more practical. (For example, if both the first and the surname are very long, it makes sense to use just the surname.)
In terms of grammar, if the full name is used, it would be correct to hyphenate all components of the street name (for example Friedrich-Schiller-Straße); if just the surname is used, it is either hyphenated or spelt as one word (Schiller-Straße or Schillerstraße). However, these rules are often ignored or used unevenly.
For illustration, here are a few examples of Third-Reich era street names from the 1939 map of my hometown:
- Adolf-Hitler-Platz
- Hans Schemm-Platz
- Hindenburg-Allee
- Ritter v. Epp-Straße
- Schlageter-Straße

Göring or not Göring It will look good in a diorama, street display
Collect ROA, Cossack, Schuma and other WW2 Volunteer militaria.
"Be Humble and kind, for you may find that it was Odin you entertained"
Good points by everyone, I have studied it more carefully now and I´m convinced the street sign is not for "Hermann Göring Str.". If you look at the point of the arrow it´s quite obvious that the last letter in the surname can´t be the letter "g".
I cannot see why not? The height is the same as the 'o' but what is seen is the back of the 'g' tail.
" When you're chewing on life's gristle, don't grumble, give a whistle "
I agree, I cant see why that could not be a g. It could have looked like this;
