Mark Kirk's New TV Ad: Endorsed by Every Major Paper in IL-10 (UPDATED)
UPDATED: A longer version of the "endorsed" ad is available at Kirk's website. I hope and assume that we'll see both versions of the endorsement ad in heavy rotation on TV over the weekend and up til the election.
20 comments:
This is a nice ad, but remains a campaign that should never have been competitive, but is because of a lack of sound communications and political strategy.
There are deep fundamental political issues here locally that Mark has refused to address and which deeply threaten his ability to retain this seat if he wins or to get it back if he does not.
As the local party leader he owes it to the Republicans here who fight hard for him to show some skin and get re-engaged.

I'm only going to say this once.
This is a Kerry +4 District and hasn't gotten any more conservative since 2006. The DCCC has poured $2 mil into this race, and Seals has raised $2 mil or so on his own, I believe. And there's the little matter of the Anointed One from our own backyard to contend with.
The fact that Mark Kirk is doing as well as he is, is a credit to his outstanding qualities as a Congressman and a work ethic that puts 99.99% of other politicians to absolute shame.
So, Anon 5:42, you want to improve leadership among the local GOP, show up to the Central Committee meetings (4th Monday every month at GOP Headquarters in Libertyville, 7:00 p.m.) and we'll put you to work.
Quit ragging on Kirk on my blog 5 days before the election.
'Nuf 'Sed.

Look TA, I've spent several decades working my tail off for ogilvie and rumsfeld and percy and kathy parker and porter and edgar and thompson and now Mark and gone to the conventions and done the whole bit with coffees, fundraisers ect. No one is going to tell me, that I can't be pissed off that here we are dealing with a nut with a cat and an intern without a job to protect our congressman who's better than 99% of the people in d.c. and should have been in leadership 4 years ago over those flakes putnam and granger.
This Republican Party in this state is in a serious period of neglect and we, the yard sign planters are owed better by the people we elect who have the influence and power to get things done, chief among them Mark Kirk.
When Mark doesn't go full throttle for the party, he is hurt, people like Tim Stratton and Brenden Appel are hurt and the state suffers, and yeah that's how we get to a point where crackpot also rans like Terry Link and Lauren Beth Gash, and Jan actually influence things.
Shutting up isn't worth continuing to put up with this.

Anon 5:42/7:34- Look, I commend you and thank you for your dedication and service to the party.
But there's a time to gripe, and this ain't it. If you have problems with Team Kirk's members, or the Lake County GOP, there will be plenty of time to work at improving things after the election. We can start on Nov. 5th if you like, although I wouldn't mind a few days off. But the first order of business is to send Mark back to Congress and win as many local races as we can.
Once we get that little item out of the way, I'll be happy to help you in a GOP-improvement program.
- October 30, 2008 at 8:16 PM
Good deal TA, we will go into 72 Hours mode and beat the snot out of Karen May and Elaine Nekritz, and Daniel Biss and the pup and comrade gash and the rest of the economy destroying corruption enabling goons.
That said, I'm still deeply disappointed with where things stand. At our pay grade you can not come up with the new ideas, rapid response units, political strategy and corporate coalitions to start kicking out the legs that stand up the heinous democratic group that runs our state.
We can not have leaders who hide from their Republican identity are afraid to take on the democrats. You can win win as a vocally proud moderate Republican.

Looks like Creamer will go to jail again...
- October 30, 2008 at 10:03 PM
i will say the kirk campaign has done the best job it's ever done on rapid response communications...seems like the pup has never been able to get anything going -- that fact check page is always one step ahead.
- October 30, 2008 at 11:00 PM
Are you serious? All I see on tv is Kirk=Bush. How is Kirk spending his money to counter the implication that he is responsible for Iraq (which he is, rather you agree with it or not)? Nobody cares about the newspaper endorsements. The papers' decisions are political and more or less predictable.
- October 30, 2008 at 11:37 PM
Hey Anon 11:37, if newspaper endorsements don't mean a thing, why would Seals and his team have bastardized every endorsement that Mark Kirk received in his slimy tv piece? He wants everyone to think that he receieved them. And as for Mark being responsible for Iraq. Get a grip. He and most in the House and Senate voted that way. I think you belong over there with the vicious catwoman and her ever-loving cat. We're not buying what you're selling. We're damn proud of Mark Kirk, we also understand that it is not predictable that he gets the endorsements of every major paper and the most influential organizations. In short, Mark Kirk is a winner, a leader we all support. Stop tearing down our guy and go where you belong.

Our anonymous friend does have a point which will need to be placed on our agendas after this election. I hope our anonymous friend steps up and brings his issues to the table because they do need to be discussed and acted upon.
The Democrats have religiously stayed on a message (Kirk-Bush, McCain-Bush) which includes "no more continuation of Bush policies." They are running against George W. Bush and trying to take down as many Republicans as they can, including the fine ones like Kirk. Cynical? Yes. Effective? Seems to be.
To them, it doesn't matter that Kirk is more independent than the average congressman. It wouldn't matter to them if Kirk won the Nobel Peace Prize. Even during debates and interviews, the pup repeated his message in a robotic fashion. Neither the pup, the catwoman, or any Democrat will credit Kirk for anything. Credit is not part of their message.
For all the talk of rebuilding the GOP party, the State GOP offered no leadership on Con-Con (they took no position on it) and other than a few of us grass root types individually trying to revive or rebuild township organizations on a volunteer basis, throwing a few hours in a week for that purpose, little support has been forthcoming, from regional GOP offices, phone banking, offering internships to local college kids, or any type of coordination. They are probably struggling for money.
Voter vault is a nice tool, but bodies and money to use that tool effectively are still missing. I have to compliment some of my elected township committeemen for their efforts in spite of the lack of resources. But when you feel like the 300 Spartans who fought the thousands of Persians invading Greece during antiquity, and you find yourself in the same situation or fight over and over again during several recent election cycles, then something has to change.
Our candidates further down the ballot are underfunded, poorly assisted and must be completely frustrated. Some big time fund raisers were held for McCain in our backyard and serious money was donated to him. McCain raised several million $$$ in Illinois, but McCain signs and literature have been scarce and he didn't bother to campaign in Illinois. That money should have been invested in our local candidates and would have been put to a better use.
Obama has been running ads unopposed on Chicago TV and radio and McCain hasn't. The ads may be designed for Northern Indiana and Southern Wisconsin. The message? "McCain-Bush. End the Bush policies. McCain doesn't support you!"
While McCain got the big bucks from our area and then vanished, Tim Stratton is a phenomenal candidate who has been mostly neglected and underfunded. Two years earlier, William Griffin was a phenomenal candidate who was mostly neglected and underfunded. The result? Karen May. We have other excellent candidates for office in Keith Gray, Anderson and Daniel Segrue to send to Springfield. All struggle for cash and attention to get their message out.
The Democrat candidates all were given seed money and cash from established Democrats already holding office. Ours weren't. Ours do get newspaper endorsements and pats on the back. But pats on the back do not win elections.
In parades, the Democrats march together in one large group. We don't.
Our countywide candidates are also struggling for cash and really do not seem to be campaigning as a slate. The only coordinated effort I see are from our county board candidates who are mostly outside the 10th Congressional District, who are also outgunned financially.
After 11/5, some more changes will be needed. And a different attitude needs to be put in place.
Our State Party, our county central committees, our GOP clubs and organizations all need to remember that all politics is local. Keep the money local. Fund and support your local candidates. And if we don't rebuild locally, we will continue to frustrate ourselves each election cycle.
So let's get out there and make our final push for the good guys this weekend.
And after this election, we have some serious issues to take on and solve.

All good points, Lou. The fact is that the GOP, at least on a national level, is a somewhat tarnished brand, so much so that it overwhelms to a great extent the tarnished brand of the state Dems, and limits our candidates ability to get behind the elephant and run on Republican 'principles'.
Once the novelty of the BarackStar is out of the way, for better or worse, we will all need to regroup and place greater emphasis on teamwork.
Don't forget, though, that the local GOP has made some great strides forward with the quality of many of our new candidates- Dan Duffy, Keith Gray, Dan Sugure, our judicial candidates, and numerous others. These people are the future of the party and we need to get behind them to help us rebuild.

Just moved to the Wilmette from Chicago and came across this blog. One more vote for Kirk. I paid extra to be north of Lake Avenue so I could have finally have representation (Republican) in Congress! The fact this race is considered a tossup is very concerning. IMO, Mark needs to go negative on Seals in at least one place. I liked the mailer linking Seals to Rangel. I would extend that to include Chicago Democratic operatives who are driving his push into the 10th. No one likes a carpetbagger - so that theme should resonate. Because if I was strictly going on mailers, Mark comes across as just neutral nice guy (i.e. trying to avoid losing), while Seals is on offense. Need to show there is a downside to Seals. JMHO
- October 31, 2008 at 11:27 AM
I don't think the local GOP would be very receptive to my opinions yet, but that might change if this election cycle turns out as poorly for the Republican Party as many people predict.
The GOP needs a full blown overhaul--an ideological purge. Organizing to deliver a message more effectively won't help if the message is wrong. The GOP needs to take responsibility for the last 8 years, admit that backing Bush has equated to abandoning most things that should rightfully/rationally be considered "conservative," apologize, and regroup.
The main problem right now for Mark Kirk is that all the things the Seals campaign is saying about him are generally true. He has voted for all of Bush's ridiculous budgets, he has voted to dump hundreds of billions into Iraq, and he has voted with Bush on every major issue. He's done good things too, but people tend to remember the bad (especially when your opponent is all over the television and in the mail).
Kirk's defense is to state that he is considered one of the most independent members in congress, but those things are not mutually exclusive. When most people are voting 98% along party lines, voting 90% makes you RELATIVELY independent. In the absolute sense, he is as off base as the rest of the 20% approval rate having federal legislature.
Of course, all the things the Kirk campaign is saying about the dishonest idiot carpetbagger who is Dan Seals are also true, but it doesn't matter.
If local Republicans want the GOP to return to prominence, local Republicans need to advance a winning platform, and the Bush agenda that Mark Kirk has supported is a proven loser.
The good news is that 2010 might be like 1994. We're about to have two years of Democratic freespending and incompetence, and that bring traditional conservatives back into office next cycle. But the neo-cons are out. I say, "Good riddance."

Anon 10/30 5:42: you really need to keep your pants on!
- October 31, 2008 at 10:16 PM
Hey Lou - maybe you didn't notice the state party mail in lake county and other collar counties or the 7 phone banks they funded around the state - it's easy to miss because it's easy to point fingers when things are tough. And btw, these are things that have NEVER happened before... And a position on Con Con? What were you looking for? A coordinated campaign that took the focus off the dozens of candidates in competitive races. Sounds great but that's not the job of the state party nor is it the job of the state party to solve everyone's problems. If Mark Kirk waited for a state party to help him win elections we'd be dealing with congressman dan seals a long time ago. But in conjunction with a well oiled machine (which is what the kirk campaign is) the state party can effectively compliment candidates who are willing and able to do the heavy lifting themselves. J.C. Watts was famous for saying that "the only helping hand is at the end of your wrist". You have a reputation as a hard working dude but you might take a moment and think about what we all need to do to help rebuild this party. Because personally, I plan on building this place from the ground up - I'm not going to wait to get my marching orders from the top down.
- October 31, 2008 at 10:32 PM
To the two Anons,
Not taking any position on con-con makes us look silly. The Edgar commercials being anti con-con and urging voters to vote the bums out that caused the mess in Springfield is a MESSAGE! And it's actually a good one for us. Why aren't we using it?
A position pro con-con saying the state needs to be fixed is a MESSAGE! And it is also a good one.
The last second radio spot by the House Republicans telling folks if they want change in Springfield, then vote the Democrats who control it out is a MESSAGE! And it is a good one!
The State party message? Silence. When asked, McKenna bluntly said they had no position. I'm not anti-McKenna, but really! Silence?
Giving candidates some seed money would help at the start of a campaign. Coordinating their websites the way the Democrats coordinate theirs is a good idea. Some basic nuts and bolts assistance to them is only sporadically given right now. There is no state party mail in my part of Lake County.
I'm a grass roots guy but I also recognize that the ditch diggers of any organization need a foreman to tell them where to dig, a planner to show them the way and an idea man who dreamed it all up. If you are going to put up a building with a strong foundation, you need an architect or a group of architects to draw up some plans, otherwise you are just digging aimlessly and erecting something that may not be inhabitable.
Are we a party with a bunch of ditch digging shovelers shoveling in no particular direction? When did that happen?
And sorry. Blowing up the party apparatus and starting over sounds nice, but isn't very practical.
Kirk will win this thing in my opinion. I'm not knocking the Kirk campaign. It is extremely well organized, focused and funded.
My complaints go towards the lack of support that a bunch of fine candidates should have received for Springfield and county wide races. Drives me crazy that folks will attend a presidential candidate fundraiser and drop $5,000 and $10,000 per fundraiser, then give the local guy running for State Representative $50.00. Something is wrong with that picture.
I've tossed out a couple of ideas that I feel can be solutions. There are more out there.

Wow - you need to talk to the state party more because you need to get caught up on what they've been doing.
First, the lake county website was designed and hosted by the state party - so have a bunch of others around the state - free of charge.
Second, I'm not the biggest fan of McKenna, but he was the FIRST person to even mention Con Con during their reform tour over a year ago. This same reform tour included the first mention of Recall, first mention of tax reform and the first discussion of ethics bill before any new spending. But whatever...
And a radio ad with NO money behind it ONE WEEK before an election in the Chicago media market is similar to shooting an elephant with a pellet gun.
I agree with you though...the anti-rod, springfield is broken message is good... and it has been employed by smart campaigns months and months ago.
But putting out a hail mary pass like a radio ad ONE WEEK before the election is Cross trying to hide the fact that he was a close ally of Blago. Just look at Madigan coming after him as proof... Madigan looks further from Rod than Cross does and it has hurt incumbant Republicans as a result.
Finally, just because you didn't get the mail doesn't mean it didn't happen... I got mine. Just go check it out.
Like I said. You are really respected but you have to take a closer look at what's going on...

Information (Click for more details): Picked Upload
This is a picked upload! It showcases some of the best talent and creativity available on MTS and in the community.
Camdice is a contemporary luxury home equipped with all basic amenities and lots of potentials to suit your Sims lifestyle. It is designed with a warm and inviting, flexible layout to adapt to changes in your Sims family needs. The front yard has a pleasant, charming landscape with two large parks that include a fish pond, outdoor games, sitting and relaxation areas.
The backyard comprises of a large swimming pool with built-in hot tub and sitting area; ideal for pool parties. It also offers a fireplace patio, billiard corner with mini bar, foot massage and game corners, large BBQ grill park, and lots of sitting/relaxation areas.
There are four bedrooms on the second level; a master suite and guest room on the right wing and two bedrooms on the left wing.
The open floor plan on both wings of the first level offers spacious living and dining areas, kitchen, main bar, and study.
This mansion is ideal as a vacation home where your Sims can retreat in a calm, soothing atmosphere and forget about the burdens of life (at least temporarily). You can also use it as a family home; the choice is yours.
I used standard spiral stairs with no railings from the base game and built-in tables in the living rooms and pool area. You can download any spiral stairs with curved railings on the web and/or use any movable table of your choice if you plan to modify for your own use.
TV - watching TV on the left wing's living room is not possible because I placed it above ground level which suits my design style but I couldn't find any forum/mod addressing this issue (sad). Alternatively, you could decorate the wall to suit your Sims style by placing paintings, mirrors, etc. on it or delete the platforms and place the TV on ground level if desired.
Fish pond - there are two stairs on opposite sides of the pond to help your Sims up the platform otherwise your Sims might refuse to fish.
As always, building structures are base game but you will need Late Night, Showtime, 4 SPs, and store contents (buy mode) to make it look exactly the same. Built with "cfe and move" so place on a flat lot for optimal result. Tested in game.
If you encounter any issue, I'd be glad to help.
Have fun!

Message from Top Management
Providing Solutions for Our Customers and Society by Strengthening ESG Efforts
Tetsuji Ohashi
President and CEO
In the mid-range management plan, "Together We Innovate GEMBA Worldwide: Growth Toward Our 100th Anniversary (2021) and Beyond", which we announced in April 2016, we uphold the three strategies of "Growth strategies based on innovation," "Growth strategies of existing businesses," and "Structural reforms designed to reinforce the business foundation", and work toward the goal of achieving long-term growth by strengthening our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) efforts.
Komatsu has been undertaking efforts focused on ESG in the past. However, I have expressly included ESG as keywords in the mid-range management plan, because I have personally felt that there are ever growing needs for ESG initiatives in the course of repeated dialogues with a variety of our stakeholders.
For example, I have found ESG to be one of the common topics of discussions whenever I visit our mining customers. I feel that the number of occasions has been increasing, in which they express their interest in collaborating not only to improve sustainability and safety at their jobsites, but also to work together for human resource and community development by incorporating our know-how accumulated through business.
With this background, we held the ESG meeting with investors in December 2016. We introduced Komatsu's history centering on ESG based on our founder's management principles of Globalization, Quality First, Technology Innovation and Human Resource Development. In this Report, I would like to share with you the philosophy and passion, which has been handed down through generations and honored by our employees for almost 100 years.
Efforts to Reduce Environmental Impact
In terms of CO2 emissions throughout the life cycle of construction equipment, our major products, about 90% is emitted during use by customers. By providing products and solutions designed to reduce CO2 emissions, we will make significant contributions to the reduction of environmental impact.
Over the years, we have continued our efforts of proposing fuel-saving machine operations based on analyses of KOMTRAX (Komatsu Machine Tracking System) data and have introduced hybrid hydraulic excavators. Furthermore, we believe we can offer an important solution to customers by developing and proposing new construction methods which emit a smaller amount of CO2.
Since 2015 we have been promoting SMARTCONSTRUCTION in Japan as our DANTOTSU (unrivaled) solution designed to achieve safe and high-productivity jobsites of the future. SMARTCONSTRUCTION not only enables automated operation of intelligent Machine Control models, but also connects all aspects of jobsite operation data, such as survey, design and work progress data through ICT. As efficient machine operations shorten the period of construction, SMARTCONSTRUCTION reduces CO2 emissions per work volume.
Support for Sustainable Mining
Against the backdrop of increasing global population and rate of urbanization, we can anticipate that consumption and production of major minerals will continue to grow in the mid to long range. In mines, safe and low environmental impact operations are urgently needed. As mines are in operation 24hours, 365days, in such demanding jobsites the main challenge is to prevent operational man made errors and minimize the risks of accidents. At the same time, development of a seamless and stable operation for improved productivity is a requirement.
In response to these challenges, we have developed the Autonomous Haulage System (AHS) as a solution. We have succeeded in remote operation of super-large dump trucks with the maximum payload of 300 tons from the control room about 1,500 km away from the mines by taking full advantage of high-precision GPS, obstacle sensors, wireless networks and controllers mounted on the vehicles. In addition to dynamically enhanced safety, we have also confirmed improved fuel consumption and prolonged tire life thanks to stable machine operations.
With AHS, we will continue to propose more comfortable and attractive ways of working for jobsite customers and provide solutions designed to make jobsite operations safer, more sustainable and productive into the future.
Actions based on SLQDC as a general rule
Companies are expected to play more important roles in society today. Each and every employee must fully understand corporate social responsibilities, and comply with the so-called Rules of the Business Community in addition to compliance with the laws and regulations in a narrow meaning. This is indispensable for companies to gain trust from society.
I have repeatedly asked Komatsu Group employees to decide and act according to the priorities of SLQDC, when they cannot easily make decisions. SLQDC stands for Safety, Law (compliance), Quality, Delivery and Cost. Safety comes first, the order is never reversed.
Komatsu believes that its corporate value is the total sum of trust given to it by society and all its stakeholders. Under this policy, as we are looking ahead to March 2019, the target year of our mid-range management plan, 2021, our 100th anniversary year, and beyond, during which we will further strengthen our ESG efforts. We are also going to fulfill our corporate responsibilities as a global company, as we engage in the initiatives of the United Nations' Global Compact and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD).

I know that it's been a while, but there's just SO. MUCH. GOOD. STUFF. happening right now, I have to gather it somewhere like a greedy literary squirrel. Happy writerly summer, everyone!
Deborah Reed's new novel Olivay is one week old today, and I highly recommend that you pack it into your carry-on, Europe-traipsing backpack or oversized pocket on your upcoming journey. This suspenseful, unpredictable story confined by urban fires and terror is exactly what you need to jump-start the heart.
Have you been waiting for the incomparable Jill Talbot's new memoir, The Way We Weren't? I sure have. She's one of my favorites, and this is currently on its way into my hands. Get on it!
Amanda Miska is the new editor-in-chief of Split Lip Magazine, so impeccably good work is on tap for the summer issue. Be still my heart for Katie Martin's essay and Georgia Bellas' video project!
In a turf war for the ages, The Mondegreen also released their new issue today featuring Aubrie Cox, Jim Warner, and if you look hard enough, some Bobby Flay fan fiction.
The Stir Journal poem series by Susan DeFreitas, eulogies for victims of the Charleston massacre, are a poignant and heartbreaking tribute.
This new video game column on Alternating Current by Justin Daugherty and Joel Hans gets all my wholehearted YES.
Kevin Maloney is interviewed on Hobart, and Killian Czuba drew the things!!!
Okay, I have to go make dinner. But big hugs, light kisses to you all.

An individual who wishes to remain anonymous has provided the Daily Mail with files containing the personal and financial details of 2,000 Barclays customers. The data is apparently only a small part of the 27,000 customer files stolen from the financial institution and sold to brokers.
Barclays has been notified by the Daily Mail and an investigation is underway. The organization could face massive fines as a result of the data breach.
The leaked information includes details on earnings, savings, mortgages, insurance policies, health issues, and even passport and national insurance numbers. Each of the files could be worth as much as £50 ($82 / €60) on the underground market.
The whistleblower said he obtained the information from the head of a brokerage firm who had already used it for his own benefit. More precisely, between December 2012 and September 2013, he had utilized the information to trick around 1,000 people into buying some rare earth metals that in reality didn't exist.
Customers gave Barclays the data contained in the files during meetings with a financial adviser.
"Our initial investigations suggest this is isolated to customers linked to our Barclays Financial Planning business, which we ceased in 2011," Barclays representatives told the Daily Mail.
The former broker who exposed the shady practices has revealed that the 27,000 files are "pure gold" to brokers. That's because the information they contain allows them to manipulate their targets.
One of the impacted customers has told the Daily Mail that someone claiming to be from Barclays contacted him about an alleged attempt to hack his account. In reality, the caller was actually a scammer "fishing for information."
The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is also investigating the incident.

It's been a typical Annette day. [This was actually written yesterday.] (Or not-so-typical, as these days don't seem to happen as much anymore.)
Work was good. I had a 3 1/2 hour meeting about nothing, my projects, biking through France, pedometers, and other nonsense. My superiors seem to be very happy with the work I've been doing so far. That's good.
And then I came home.
Okay, so you have to understand some background on this. My cell phone started dying the day I got it from Sprint a year ago. It would randomly turn itself off, stop receiving calls, et cetera, et cetera. So I finally had enough and had Charlie get in contact with Derek for me (aka – super Sprint man) to see if he could hook me up with a new phone. He put me in contact with a new program they have called Employees Helping Customers (imagine that…), and I've been in communication with Judy there ever since. Keep in mind through all this that Judy and I keep about the same work hours, and I typically don't answer my phone when I'm working, so we're playing phone tag throughout this whole escapade.
That was about two months ago. After telling Judy my situation, she gave me $150 towards a new phone. Plus, after I whined, she gave me free mobile to mobile calling. Good, done. I just have to go to a Sprint store and get a new phone.
No. Sprint's going through some database restructuring and so on and so forth, so Judy calls back and says I need to order the phone through her instead. I do, and a week later, my phone arrives. Except that it's not the phone that I ordered. It is, in fact, the exact same model that I already have. So I call Judy back. "Judy… you guys sent me the wrong phone." So I make sure she has the right address in Columbia, and she sends out another one. And it goes to Virginia. Nice. I have my mom mail the phone to me, and tell Judy she needs to give me some sort of credit for all the nonsense, plus for the shipping costs. She eventually gives me a $90 credit, and yesterday my phone arrived from my mom. Good.
Then I plugged it in to charge it. It beeped every minute it was charging, for no apparent reason. Charlie has the same phone (except in silver; mine is red — aww, aren't we cute), and his phone doesn't do that. Oh well, maybe it'll go away after it's fully charged for the first time.
So I call Sprint to activate my new phone. It's 5:30 on a weekday, so I wait on hold for 20 minutes. Finally I get through, tell the girl my number, and she asks if I have another phone I can call her from. What? You have to call from a different phone to activate your phone. So I have to own two phones to activate my phone? Yes. Charlie is still at the office working on the Living Reflections book, so I don't have access to another phone. And you can't just call me on my old phone? No, because we have to activate your new phone.
Agh. So after waiting 20 minutes to talk to a human being, I have to hang up.
I go back to trying to prepare dinner for myself and my wonderful love. I'm going to make mashed sweet potatoes, and it's going to be wonderful. Except that the kitchen is a mess, there's no clean space to work in, Charlie's roommate keeps messing up the kitchen after we clean it, there's a fruitfly, there's a housefly, and WHY WON'T THIS KNIFE CUT SWEET POTATOES?!
Charlie gets home. He gives me a hug and tells me sweet things. Then he sets out to clean the kitchen and call Sprint. Sprint is overloaded, so he gives up and goes back to cleaning. I'm still struggling with the sweet potatoes. Charlie apparently knows me well (or something), because a few minutes later he asks, "What are you making?" "It's going to be mashed sweet potatoes." "And now that you're partway into it, is that still what you want to make?" "NO!"
"Okay, then why don't we make something else? Here, let's make pasta. I'll make it." Flies are landing on my sweet potatoes. "BABY, KILL THEM!" "Oooookay, let's put those away." We don't have a big container to put them in, so let's just cover them in plastic wrap. I pull down the plastic wrap from the top shelf, and manage to knock over a whole stack of plastic containers which come crashing down over my head, bouncing off the stove, counters, and floor. I cry.
Charlie leads me by the hand and puts me in bed. He pours me a glass of wine, brings me my laptop, and tells me to stay put. He cleans the kitchen, table, makes dinner, and afterwards takes me out for ice cream.
That, boys and girls, is the most wonderful man in the world. Yep, he passed the test. He's a keeper.

Rough Terrain Hydraulic Crane: A crane mounted on an undercarriage with four rubber tires that is designed for pick-and-carry operations and for off-road and "rough terrain" applications. Outriggers are used to level and stabilize the crane for hoisting. These cranes offer the perfect combination of power and traction for travel on rutted, muddy job-sites.
These telescopic cranes are single-engine machines, with the same engine powering the undercarriage and the crane, similar to a crawler crane. In a rough terrain crane, the engine is usually mounted in the undercarriage rather than in the upper.
Another critical characteristic of the forklift is its instability. The forklift and load must be considered a unit with a continually varying centre of gravity with every movement of the load. A forklift must never negotiate a turn at speed with a raised load which can result in a disastrous tip-over accident. The forklift are designed with a load limit for the forks which is decreased with fork elevation and undercutting of the load. A loading plate for loading reference is usually located on the forklift.
A typical counterbalanced forklift contains the following components :
Motor Grader : A motor grader, also commonly referred to as a road grader, is a construction machine with a long blade used to create a flat surface. Typical models have three axles, with the engine and cab situated above the rear axles at one end of the vehicle and a third axle at the front end of the vehicle, with the blade in between.
In civil engineering, the grader's purpose is to "finish grade" (refine, set precisely) the "rough grading" performed by heavy equipment or engineering vehicles such as scrapers and bulldozers.
Graders can produce inclined surfaces, to give cant (camber) to roads. They are also used to produce drainage ditches with shallow V-shaped cross-sections on either side of highways.
Graders are commonly used in the construction and maintenance of dirt roads and gravel roads. In the construction of paved roads they are used to prepare the base course to create a wide flat surface for the asphalt to be placed on. Graders are also used to set native soil foundation pads to finish grade prior to the construction of large buildings.

Subject: Concerning Disruptive Technologies
Date: Fri, 09 Jun 2000 12:49:35 +0900
From: Steve McCarty firstname.lastname@example.com
Organization: Kagawa JC, Japan; World Association for Online Education
I don't know, but I'm dubious about articles like the one at <http://www.compaq.com/rcfoc/20000529.html#_Toc483752489> which hype the wireless Internet access here in Japan via iMode phones and so forth. From what I've heard, they access about 7,000 Websites -- in Japanese and selected for them. Commercials are also planned. So it could easily develop into something like Japanese TV, almost all in Japanese and controlled by economic interests in Tokyo. The Internet can be used for Intranets and other closed systems. 7,000 sites are not the open World Wide Web. We could try to program our Japanese language Websites also in the compact html for tiny screens, but how will users in Japan arrive at them? Not likely through English sources like the Japan WWW Virtual Library or the Japan Window. Even our sites listed with Yahoo! Japan among a multitude of others may not necessarily be found or among the chosen ones. Even now it is difficult to reach Japanese readers through the Net, and dotcoms from abroad are liable to have a harder time than expected. Now one quite possible scenario is that journalists and wannabes now hyping this wireless trend will be crying protectionism in a year or two. I hope I'm wrong, but in the wrong hands these could be disruptive technologies indeed.

USA TODAY caught up with the 29-year-old at a recent stop on his just-wrapped Move Live on Tour.
He shared the "leading lessons" from his book (Taking the Lead: Lessons from a Life in Motion), along with how they apply to his daily life.
Derek and his sister, Julianne were raised as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (commonly called "Mormons"), but I am not sure that they are active in the church at this time. They have both been featured as professional dancers on Dancing with the Stars.
Answer Derek and Julianne Hough are Mormons (members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints).
Leading lesson: Failure can't live in the company of perseverance."I was this scrawny little guy in Utah, and I would get punched in the face. I have a sense of 'Wow, wonder where they were in their minds?
An October report from indicated that the 19-year-old Mota and her 29-year-old dance partner may be falling for each other. I was watching the package for the first time and I'm seeing her cry and get emotional, so I walked over and gave her a hug." After the trip, Derek Hough also had plenty of praise for the influence that Bethany Mota has with her fans.
During that cold winter day they were warming themselves up not only with cups of coffee or tea, but with their lady friends too.
A new Derek Hough girlfriend seemed really happy for having an opportunity to snuggle with the famous celebrity.
Derek Hough and Mark Ballas are good friends from the very beginning of the TV show called Dancing with the Stars.
They were heading downtown when the paparazzi managed to take few pictures of them walking all four together on their double date.The report came after Bethany Mota tweeted a picture of Derek carrying her luggage as the pair prepared for a trip to Australia together. Look how sweet @derekhough is carrying my luggage #Team MOTOUGH is back!!! Derek also had great things to say about Mota in his blog for , during a week in which he swapped partners and hit the floor with Sadie Robertson. "I went to Sydney and I saw the impact of what she makes on all these young girls, they call themselves the Mota-vators," he said.

London: Players and pundits have paid tribute to Andrew Strauss, who captained England for 50 Tests, describing him as a "great leader" after he announced his retirement from cricket.
Strauss is among one of nine England batsmen to have scored 7,000 runs or more in Tests - 7037 at an average of 40.91 in 100 Tests.
Reacting to the news on Twitter, Stuart Broad wrote: "Awesome guy, great leader, dependable batsman and a solid 1 slip catcher. Cheers Straussy you``ll be playing scratch golf within a year."
Eoin Morgan wrote: "Sad news that Straussy is retiring but I would like to congratulate him on an amazing career. A great leader and a pleasure to play with!"
Paul Collingwood wrote: "Andrew Strauss should be very proud what he``s done for English cricket and everything he``s achieved, great team man and great leader."
Matthew Hoggard said: "I wish him all the best for the future,"
James Anderson wrote: "Really sad to hear Straussy has called it a day. He``s done so much for this England team not just as captain but also as a player… He will be missed but he hands over to a very fine replacement in Alastair Cook. Best of luck to Cooky and to Straussy in his future."
Geoffrey Boycott said the pressure of captaincy, with the extra workload of dealing with the media and meetings with selectors, had clearly taken its toll.
He said: "I think a lot of people don``t realise that modern day captaining in international cricket is more difficult than in the past, they have so many media obligations. He``s always on call. If his mind is scrambled and tired he cannot bat. You bat with your brain and his brain is tired."
Michael Atherton said: "He was a very good captain held in very hard regard by his team, and that is critical. He led in a manner that has gone down well with the public at large."

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff,v.1.647 ACRES 0.826 ACRES - E STREET CORRIDOR AND 0.821ACRES - F STREET CORRIDOR OF LAND, MORE OR LESS, LOCATED IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY, STATE OF CALIFORNIA; SAN DIEGO UNIFIED PORT DISTRICT; STATE OF CALIFORNIA; AND UNKNOWN OWNERS, Defendants.
M. James Lorenz United States District Judge
before the Court in this condemnation action is the
Government's motion to strike defenses pursuant to
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(f), or in the alternative
for judgment on the pleadings under Rule 12(c). The motion is
fully briefed and decided on the briefs without oral
argument. See Civ. Loc. R. 7.1.d.1. For the reasons
which follow, the Government's motion for judgment on the
pleadings is DENIED. Its motion to strike is GRANTED in part
and DENIED in part.
Government filed this eminent domain action on behalf of the
United States Navy as a part of the Navy Broadway Complex
redevelopment project in order to acquire a fee interest in
one-block segments of E and F streets in San Diego,
California. (Compl. at 2, ¶ 1, 3; Decl. of Taking,
Schedule B). The action is based on 10 U.S.C. §
2663(c)(1), which provides in relevant part,
The Secretary of a military department may acquire any
interest in land that--[¶] (A) the Secretary determines
is needed in the interest of national defense; and [¶]
(B) does not cost more than $750, 000, exclusive of
administrative costs and the amounts of any deficiency
street segments the Navy wants to condemn will be used to
ensure the security of Naval personnel and property located
on abutting lands of the United States; to provide public and
Naval access, including but not limited to subterranean,
surface, and aerial vehicular, pedestrian, and utility
access, to abutting lands of the United States; for use as
public streets; and for such other uses as may be authorized
by Congress or by Executive Order.
(Decl. of Taking, Schedule B).
land in question, along with the Navy's adjoining
property, was the subject of a similar eminent domain dispute
between the same parties in 1990. In United States v.
15.320 Acres of Land, More or Less, in San Diego County,
No. 90-1562 (S.D. Cal. 1990) ("15.320
Acres"), the Government filed a complaint-only
condemnation action. In July 1991, Judge William B. Enright
granted the Government's first motion for partial summary
judgment to quiet title to the land abutting the street
segments. (Gov't Ex. 1 at 14:9-18).[1] In September
1991, Judge Enright denied the second motion for partial
summary judgement and rejected the contention that the
Government already owned the street segments, and could
condemn a fee interest in the street segments solely to
incorporate the land into the Navy Broadway Complex.
(Gov't Ex. 2 at 7:5-8, 11:24-12:4). The Court noted,
"[T]he United States dictated the framework within
which its motion was viewed by asserting that it had the
authority to take the property at issue regardless of whether
it was reopened as a public street or integrated in the
complex itself." (Id. at 11:5-9).
the September 1991 ruling, the Government amended its
complaint to take a perpetual assignable easement of the
street segments, and updated its proposed public uses so that
the street segments would "provide public access,
including but not limited to subterranean and surface
vehicular, pedestrian and utility access, to abutting lands
of the United States." (Gov't Ex. 4 at 2:16-20).
The Government's third motion for partial summary
judgment was granted in December 1991, because the Government
committed to keeping the streets open to the public.
(Gov't Ex. 3 at 6).
the parties entered into a Stipulation for Judgment in which
the Government waived its claim to the fee interest in the
street segments, recognized fee ownership in the San Diego
Unified Port District, and in which, upon payment of $1.00 to
the Port District, an easement covering the street segments
would be condemned to the Government for use in perpetuity
for public street purposes. (Gov't Ex. 5 at 2:4-27).
Judge Enright incorporated the stipulation into the final
judgement issued in December 1992. (Gov't Ex. 6 at
In the
pending action, Defendants object that the taking is: (1) not
statutorily authorized (Cal. Answer at 3, ¶5; Port
Answer at 2, Third Separate Defense); (2) not for a valid
public use and that the United States is precluded from
relitigating that it is (Cal. Answer at 2, ¶¶ 1, 2;
Port Answer at 2, First and Second Separate Defenses); and
(3) barred by waiver and res judicata principles
which Defendants assert are supported by judicial estoppel
(Cal. Answer at 2, ¶ 1; Port Answer at 3, Fourth
Separate Defense). The Government moves to strike these
defenses pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(f),
or in the alternative, seeks a judgment on the pleadings
pursuant to Rule 12(c). Defendants' objections regarding
valuation (Cal. Answer at 2, ¶¶ 3, 4; Port Answer
at 3, Fifth Separate Defense), are not challenged in the
pending motion.
Government filed a motion to strike under Rule 12(c), seeking
judgment on the pleadings as to certain defenses asserted in
Defendants' answers, or in the alternative to strike
certain defenses.
Judgment on the pleadings is proper when there are no issues
of material fact, and the moving party is entitled to
judgment as a matter of law. All allegations of fact by the
party opposing the motion are accepted as true, and are
construed in the light most favorable to that party. As a
result, a plaintiff is not entitled to judgment on the
pleadings when the answer raises issues of fact that, if
proved, would defeat recovery.
Gen. Conf. Corp. of Seventh-Day Adventists v. Seventh Day
Adventist Congregational Church, 887 F.2d 228, 230 (9th
Cir. 1989) (citations omitted).
Government at most requests a partial judgment as to some,
but not all defenses. Even if the Government prevailed on all
defenses, it would still have to prove its case. Accordingly,
by completely prevailing on its motion, the Government would
at best obtain a partial judgment. Partial judgments are
disfavored. See Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 54(b); Reiter
v. Cooper, 507 U.S. 258, 265 (1993) (In light of the
"historic federal policy against piecemeal appeals,
" partial judgments are disfavored.); Wood v. GCC

In line to vote
Update: An election worker mentioned they had had about 400 voters come through so far by the time we got in line. It took us about half an hour from parking to pulling out. The A-G line was slower than the others for some reason. Slower readers working there, I guess. I had to prompt the one looking up my name to look on the next page. I guess not everyone's all that fast at looking things up alphabetically.

Finally Friday
It seems to have something to do with final exams, and since it's apparently sponsored by a beer company it's probably connected with, or aimed at, the college kids.
UPDATE: According to this local events calendar, today's event is "First Friday." Another is scheduled for June 6. (The first Friday of each month, in case you didn't notice.) For 7/25, 8/29, 9/26, and 10/31, the last Fridays of those months, they have scheduled "Finally Friday." I suspect someone just put up the wrong banners today.
That's what I suspected it was when we saw it from up the street, but the "Finally Friday" banners threw me off.
Post a comment if you have more information, particularly if they swap in the correct banners.

Cafe New Orleans Roof Blows Loose
Cafe New Orleans blows loose in high winds, sending bricks falling to the sidewalk.
EDIT: Here is a supplemental shot, taken with a better camera, of the roof blowing in a gust of wind. You can see a bit of debris blowing loose, and the damage to the brickwork.
By the time we walked off, the police had taped off the entire block of William, no doubt in anticipation of part of the roof blowing loose entirely and flying down the street. We've not yet heard if anything more happened. Please leave a comment if you have any further information.

Oooh these are so beautiful! I love flowers and the colors are just magnificent!
Pretty flowers! I also did a floral collage today. Mine
what pretty colors. are these all from your garden?
mine is HERE w/Linky
hi there! Thanks for linking up with my Tags from Savers; my favorite store.
Beautiful flowers! Love the colors 🙂
Happy WW!
Flowers are my very favorite thing to photograph! Hope you're having a happy Wordless Wednesday.
Hi there! I am co-hosting this week on the Wondering Brain Show Off Weekend Blog Party. Thanks for sharing your creations with us! I hope you found inspiration in all of the terrific posts.
I host a (Not SO) Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop and a TGIF Link Party at my place — A Peek Into My Paradise… http://apeekintomyparadise.blogspot.com/ I would love for you to link up and follow (if you don't already) if you like what you see. =) I follow back – I love making new friends!
I can't wait to see what you link up next week!
Hugs, Cathy
These colors are amazing!
Beautiful! What vibrancy.
Flowers are always too pretty to not photograph. There is something almost magical in their attraction of the eye.
May I offer a suggestion? You may want to consider removing the date stamp on your digital images. Personally, it distracts from the picture. If you are concerned about trying to figure out when a pic was snapped, the file name has that info listed in the property setting. You can always organize your photos in a folder by the date. I do this, plus I'll go an extra step. I will nest my folders, for example: (Main folder) 2013-07. (subfolder1) Smoky Mountains. (subfolder 2) The (subfolder 3) grandparents. (subfolder 4) Flowers. This keeps things in an order that not only makes sense to me, but aids in my memory of where to find what I'm looking for. lol
Thanks for linking up with me on WW. I hope to see you next week!

A brief and petulent outburst.
Fine art.
"It's all about showing the work in context."
We know. We know all about context. We embrace it. We study multimedia. We have a perfect grasp of the form and the function of creative works.
And we know when to put it on youtube.
Being an artist is all well and good but let us factor in the distinctions between what is art and what is design. You are an artist. The pieces made largely for the self, to be viewed by others and appreciated as personal views. The content is yours to decide, as well as the form. You have total control. Your work is viewed by the precious few, in distinct areas.
We are designers. We are trained to read minds, and create wonders from someone else's specification. We have to grasp every available medium and dazzle with our knowledge of various techniques. We're an invisible faceless army, turning the wheels of popular culture. Our work is everywhere you look.
In short, it's pretty tricky. So don't talk down to us when we haven't heard of a Spanish film-maker from the 60's whose influence has spread over precisely 0.2% of planet earth's population.
You make art.
We'll make money.
