Posted March 20, 2005on:
Who among each of us does not have problem? I believe that none of us is free from this am I right? I tell you why.
Problem is there to strengthen our faith to God because in every time that we overcome problem it strengthen our faith to God. That is, if you know that our God is the only one who can help us in times of troubles.
You should know also that God cannot give a problem to us it is SATAN who gives this problems, to test us how big is our faith to God. And on time that you loose faith to God Did you know that Satan is very happy. Because he again proves to God that man cannot make refuge to God. You might be interested on the story of Job of the Old Testament see how Job overcome those problems given by Satan to him and what comes after he overcome those problems. Try to find it on your bible. Remember that a bible will not be the words of God not unless you read it. It will just be an ordinary book lying around the corner of your house. Just pray to God to tell you His revelation to you
And always remember this.
Don't tell God how big is your problem but tell your problem how big your God Is.
I pray to God that this will be a light to whoever out there that is now leaving in dark. God bless all of you.

Rare Madagascar tortoises seized at Mumbai airport
Indian custom officials say they have seized 146 endangered tortoises from an abandoned bag at Mumbai airport after noticing a strange smell.
Customs officials said the 139 Radiated and six Angonoka tortoises had been "wrapped inhumanly" in plastic bags.
Two Radiated tortoises were found dead, with broken shells, but the rest were alive, officials said.
The tortoises were being smuggled from Madagascar to Nepal, with Mumbai as a transit point, they added.
No arrests have been made so far.
Assistant Customs Commissioner Kiran Kumar Karlapu tweeted that only 600 Angonoka tortoises are left in the wild.
Angonoka tortoises, also known as Ploughshare, are highly prized for their distinctive gold and black shells and fetch exceptionally high prices on the international black market.
Officials said the tortoises would be sent back to Madagascar in accordance with Indian laws.

Can you go from a US Work Permit to US Permanent Residence?
We get many inquiries about whether it is possible to transfer from a US Work Permit to a US Green Card or US Permanent Residence. In some cases, a US Work Visa to Green Card transfer is indeed possible. This all depends on the nature of the US Work Visa in question.
How to transfer from a US Work Permit to US Permanent Residence
For instance, if you are working in the US on an H-1B Visa or L1 Visa, you may be eligble to apply for a US Permanent Residence though what is known as the Adjustment of Status (AOS) Process. The AOS process is complicated as it involves the completion of many immigration application forms and the collection of supporting documents. Also your US employer has to be willing to Petition for you for the Green Card.
Not all US Work Permits can act as a "spring board" to US Permanent Residence. TN Visas and E2 Visas for example do not allow for a direct transfer to Green cards through the AOS process. In many cases, individuals wishing to apply for US Permanent Residence who are on TN Visas or E2 Visas, consider applying for H1B Visas so they can "adjust their status" for US Permanent Residence.
It is therefore important to consider what your long terms plans are for the US when considering what type of US Work Permit you want to apply for. If you have questions about transferring from a US Work Permit to US Permanent Residence, contact a licensed immigration lawyer.

Decides to focus on domestic market, starts releasing 75,000 bales a day
The Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) has decided to put its plans to float a global tender for sale of cotton on the back burner. Instead, responding to the demand made by the country's textile industry, the government agency has decided to release more cotton into the domestic market.
" We are in readiness for exports. However, we have decided not to go ahead with the plans for the global tender for cotton sale since the domestic market is picking up," BK Mishra, CMD, CCI, told FE.
CCI has been placing 50,000 bales on a daily basis for the past 10 days on board for e-auction and around 80-90% of this has been picked up by mills, he said.
CCI has therefore decided to increase the quantity of cotton for sale on board to 75,000 bales a day. On Monday, of 75,000 bales placed for auction, buyers picked up around 61,000 bales. CCI has so far sold around 7 lakh bales in the domestic market.
According to Mishra, the global tender is likely to result in panic in the domestic market and could send out a wrong message. "CCI has been putting 50,000 bales a day for sale since the offtake has not been much. However, with the market picking up now, we shall increase the amount of cotton put up for sale," he said.
Earlier, Mishra had said that CCI does not intend to offload huge stocks immediately, as it could worsen an already glut-like situation in the market and hurt realisations of farmers selling cotton. The agency is holding stocks worth around R16,000 crore now and has procured around 86.09 lakh bales. The agency has stopped procurement of cotton from farmers for the current season on account of prices moving up. Cotton prices have increased marginally by R50-100 per bale resulting in market prices of R4,100-4,150 per bale both in Gujarat and the South.
Mishra pointed out that the textile millers have been complaining that CCI has not been placing sufficient cotton up for sale and therfore decided to increase the quantity. Millers are now offering a better price of R100-300 more per bale than the prevailing market price, he said. The prevailing market price is around R32,000 per candy to R33,000 per candy.
The textile industry has been urging CCI to start releasing cotton into the market, to ease supply stating that the industry is passing through a serious situation due to non-availability of cotton in abundant quantity, on account of the stop-go policy of CCI, in spite of holding a high level of stock.
According to top officials of the Cotton Textiles Export Promotion Council (CTEPC), CCI has only released 0.3 million bales of its total procurement. "It is releasing a negligible quantity of between 3,000 and 5,000 bales a day which is resulting in a steep rise in prices, beside creating a shortage of good-quality cotton for the textile sector, which in turn is adversely affecting the export of yarn, fabrics and made-ups. CCI should start releasing at least 50,000 bales a day for 100 days, through e-auction," RK Dalmia of CTEPC had said.
Southern India Mills' Association has also urged the textiles minister Santosh Gangwar to direct CCI to immediately commence selling the commodity directly to the actual users by e-auction, with liberal credit norms.
Asked to comment on its export plans, Mishra said the agency is in readiness for exports but will focus on the domestic market for now due to upward movement in prices. "We have spoken with a number of buyers in Bangladesh who were keen on purchase of Indian cotton," Mishra said adding that the agency is also in talks with buyers in Vietnam.

OPINION: It's now or never for former Auckland Mayor John Banks, who wants his old job back.
When I first heard this I thought it all feels a bit back to the future.
But he can't sit still and wonder what could happen if he tried.
This guy is a political animal. The best ones can never sleep, they always wonder if they can do it again and Banks hasn't stopped wondering. He feels he's not dead yet and has more to give.
An announcement by Banks could come as early as Friday. I believe his only reluctance is if surveys and focus groups show him to be widely out of favour with no show of beating Goff.
But from what I've seen inside the Banks camp people are interested in a competition or a fight.
Banks won't stand if his private research shows he has no chance - he doesn't want humiliation, he wants his old job back.
Goff has a fight on his hands. Everywhere he looks, there's a John wanting his gig. Tamihere. Palino. And maybe even a Banks. First John, second John, will there be a third?
It could be a battle of biblical proportions.
Standby Phil, your worst nightmare might just be about to say "game on".
Duncan Garner is host of The AM Show.

Zang Named Regional Blavatnik Post-Doctoral Award Finalist
Dr. Yaping Zang, a postdoctoral research scientist in Prof. Latha Venkataraman's group, was selected as a Regional Blavatnik Post-Doctoral Award Finalist. She was recognized for "Innovatively using electrochemistry and electrical fields in conjunction with Scanning Tunneling Microscopy techniques to drive single-molecule chemical reactions, providing deeper mechanistic insight and opening new avenues for electro-catalysis."
Dr. Zang is a physical chemist working in the interdisciplinary fields of molecular electronics and chemistry, and has developed novel methodologies to study electrically driven chemical reactions at a single-molecule level. Using electrochemistry or electrical fields instead of toxic or expensive reagents to promote chemical reactions can potentially revolutionize the way compounds and materials are synthesized. Dr. Zang has developed an innovative methodology to electrically manipulate chemical reactions of individual molecules utilizing a scanning probe microscope. With this technique, Dr. Zang discovered a range of reactions which can be driven electrochemically or by strong electric fields. In particular, one of her significant achievements was the coupling of two anilines (a precursor in the manufacture of polyurethane) to form an azobenzene compound. The large variety of anilines which can be coupled together by this technique give rise to a whole family of azobenzene derivatives, which are important chemical intermediates in industry. This research pushes the frontier of our mechanistic understanding of electro-catalysis and paves the way towards environmentally friendly synthesis of industrially relevant materials.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT DATING From some old "Good News" magazines, published by the Worldwide Church of God, before they moved into theological apostasy. The series started in January 1987 - (Keith Hunt). Unmarried people in every age group face a bewildering array of choices in personal relationships. Yet few possess right knowledge about dating. Beginning this issue a major series of Good News articles will examine this subject. By Greg R. Albrecht Family life in the Western world is crumbling. Broken marriages, mate and child abuse, juvenile delinquency, sexually transmissible diseases, frustration and loneliness affect millions! Yet the very foundation of any stable civilization is a solid family structure. Today's civilization, with its foundation disintegrating, is on the way out! Why this crisis in family life? Nothing in this world is more important than a happy home life, with father, mother and well-taught, happy children - a close-knit family. The human family was designed by God to picture God's own spiritual Family. We are made in God's image (Genesis 1:26). But Satan the Devil, the god of this world (2 Corinthians 4:4); hates God's plan and purpose. He does everything possible to thwart and pervert what God intends. Thus, in this end time, the family is under attack from every side. The institution of marriage itself is no longer cherished as the basis of family life. Where does that leave dating, which, in its proper context, is a basic key to success in marriage? Most people today do not date for the right reasons. They have no idea what dating is supposed to accomplish. What do you expect from dating? Why do people date? What is "date"? Whether you are a teenager, a younger single, person re-entering the dating scene after previous marriage or the parent of a young person who need to be taught the right way, it's time you asked yourself questions like this! Dating should be a fresh, exciting, constructive activity that is mentally stimulating and physical upbuilding. It should lead to positive personality development. It should be, at the right time and the right way, the basis leading to a strong, happy marriage. And dating should be plain fun - the kind of fun that is fun not only today but tomorrow too. That kind of dating is what this series of articles in The Good News will be about. Traditional values discarded Dating, traditionally a part of the courtship process, has undergone great changes in the past few decades. New generations of young people have redefined the concept and practice of dating. These new directions in dating have produced a bewildering world of personal choices for the unmarried. When should young people start dating. What about "going steady"? Is there anything wrong with sexual experience before marriage? What about dating a member of another race? What about age differences? Religious differences? What if parents don't approve? How does one go about choosing a good future wife or husband? Today traditional values are discarded in favor of "modern," more permissive ideals of behavior. But look at the results! Today's world is filled with widely differing alternatives, opposing forces and values. The teenager as well as the older unmarried single deal with a confusing blur of concepts, ideas and sexual choices. One young adult put it this way: "You know the blender in the kitchen that we use to make juices, soups and mixed drinks? It's like all the beliefs I've heard about at home, in school and at church have been dumped in and blended together. I don't know what I believe." Listen to a senior editor for a major magazine: "Conditions are changing so fast that the established moral guidelines have been yanked from our hands. No single authority rules our conduct. No church lays down the moral law for all... We are heading into danger. We are in the midst of a moral crisis - because the majority... no longer can be certain what is right and what is wrong." Coming - a time of reeducation The Bible prophesies that the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to the earth will usher in a time of renewal and restoration (Acts 3:20-21). What will be restored to the earth is the perfect government of God! At that time Satan will be dethroned and God's law will begin to be enforced around the world. The Worldwide Church of God is actively involved in preparing for this "restoration of all things." We are commissioned to warn this world about where its evil ways are leading us, and to announce the good news of the coming Kingdom of God (Matthew 24:14). This world has no greater need than right knowledge about family relationships - about dating, courtship and marriage (Malachi 4:5-6). Right dating is a rare art that must be recaptured. Dramatic changes Let's survey several dramatic changes in dating and courtship that have come in this 20th century. Until this time, limited mobility allowed greater parental involvement and family interaction. Most courtship took place within the home and family. Modern transportation, namely automobiles, changed all that. Cars not only increased mobility, but removed dating from the home and parental involvement. Cars, sad to say, became bedrooms on wheels, with obvious impact on dating and courtship. Thus, in one generation, technology supplied people with the ability to act out the revolution in morality that had been espoused by European scholars and philosophers during the 18th and 19th centuries. Young people developed a high degree of independence from parents, casting off traditional restraints. Of course, other factors besides modern transportation contributed. This 20th-century approach toward dating was made possible by a drastic change in the approach to God and His inspired Word. While new technology - actually, the misuse of it- opened the floodgates, the free-thinking professors and scholars of permissiveness continued their assault on traditional values. The assault on morality Fundamental beliefs had been the target of liberal scholars and philosophers for centuries. The offensive against belief in God and God's authority was spearheaded by Charles Darwin and his followers, who popularized the myth of evolution. European "theologians" quickly followed this onslaught by loosening yet an other brick in the wall of traditional values. Building on the works of recent and contemporary philosophers, these men applied the scientific method of rationalism, and then positivism, to the Bible. Previously accepted as the inspired word of God, the Bible was subjected to critical analysis based on the assumption that it was nothing more than the writing of men. Eventually the Bible was "debunked" and "de-mythologized" by the method of higher criticism. All statements that could not be proved by physical science were rejected. Healings, miracles, angels, demons and all supernatural events were discarded. But the apostle Paul long ago predicted that this very rejection of God and God's authority would occur! Notice Romans 1:22, 28: "Professing to be wise, they became fools ... and even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting." These great "thinkers" rejected the fact that humans are made in the very image of God (Genesis 1:26) for the purpose of qualifying to enter the God Family. They reduced man, in their false teachings, to the level of the unthinking beasts, acting on nothing more than brute instinct, having nothing other than this physical life to look forward to, with no authority over them other than their own drives and desires. Thus was the groundwork laid for the anything goes, how-dare-you-judge-me, late 20th century in which we live! The 20th-century slide The 20th-century revolution in dating and courtship began with increased mobility, independence and greatly curtailed parental involvement. This movement was supported by attacks on the existence of God and the validity of the Bible. The result of the attack against these two fundamental beliefs was an erosion of authority. The end of World War I provided a further impetus for the rising mood of permissiveness. New voices began to speak of right and wrong in the area of marriage and the family. Traditionally, religion teamed with the home as authorities on dating and marriage. But after World War I, psychology and sociology provided a respectable, scientific vehicle through which the new voices could publish and teach their ideals. Millions believed and followed the teachings of Sigmund Freud, Margaret Mead and Alfred Charles Kinsey. These and other authorities continued the quest to replace God and His inspired Word as the authority in human conduct and in relationships between the sexes. The eternal laws and principles of the Bible began to be replaced by studies and surveys that revealed what the practices of a "normal" individual were. Those who followed "arbitrary" standards of church and family were compared unfavorably to those who pioneered in changing public opinion and promoting public acceptance of the "new" morality. Marriage was proclaimed obsolete. Trial marriages; open marriages and progressive and permissive monogamy were all advanced as acceptable alternatives. Dating as an institution designed to lead to lifelong marriage was obviously irrelevant if marriage itself was obsolete. Thus dating began to be spoken of by the new "authorities" as primarily a socialization process between the two sexes. Dating came to consist of nothing more than "having a good time" - spending time together - rather than a broadening, constructive, educational, recreational, enjoyable activity designed to improve the whole person. What people do on dates, and how they do it - where they go, and with whom, and why they go there - all became secondary considerations to the mere expediency of "being together." The rise of feminism With the advent of the 1960s and 1970s, dating as socialization was redefined again by the feminist movement. Building upon earlier concepts that had promised freedom from marriage ("marriage is slavery," went one popular concept), feminism promised a new agenda. According to this agenda, women were seen both as victims and as self-styled saviors from their own victimization. Traditional male and female role needed redefining. Women no longer would accept the leadership of men. Women were seen to need "liberation" and "equality," which, translated in the minds of many, meant that women instead of men would now hold the power (Isaiah 3:12). It is this dilemma over male and female roles that affects dating and courtship. Both men and women are tentative. Homosexuality is celebrated. "Straight" men and women wonder how to act and react toward members of the opposite sex. Men have become more passive and women more aggressive. And yet, in the midst of all this "enlightenment" the "war between the sexes" seems to be escalating. Men have been the most obvious casualties of this war. Single women plead, "Where are the men?" Now - this generation This world needs to be totally reeducated regarding the purposes of dating. Decades of wrong teaching have sabotaged our approach to this vital prelude to happy marriage. Happy marriages don't just happen. They are prepared for and planned for like other major decisions such as career choice. Ironically, young people are often given a great deal of education preparation to help them toward the world of work but little or no training in how to choose a mate. Millions change marriages as quickly as others change careers. Millions find that they were ill-prepared for marriage. Millions find that they made their choice of a mate primarily on the basis of fantasy or emotional impulse, or because they were forced to by premarital pregnancy. When man abandoned God and His inspired Word, this world lost its spiritual focus. God's laws leads to happiness and fulfilment. They provide a guide to help us chart the course through the troubled and confused times in which we live. The Good News proclaims a return to biblical values in every area of life, and in coming issues will look more closely at what the Bible specifically says about dating and courtship. We will cover the instruction on dating, male and female roles, problem of infatuation, singles and mate selecting. The good news is that dating and courtship will undergo a dramatic change at the return of Jesus Christ, But you can start now to practice the biblical values concerning dating. (To be continued)

I've never been a big coupon guy….Oh, who am I kidding, I have always been a big coupon guy. I loved the Entertainment Book with all the coupons for hotels and restaurants. I love the coupons that Macy's sends in the mail. I love saving money, and I hate spending money that doesn't have to be spent. So, I was overjoyed when I went to Macy's and found some sport coats on sale that I was also able to use my coupons for. Being a man mostly of leisure now, sport coats are the thing!
I had the exact sport coat before and I couldn't remember if I got a large or an extra-large, so figuring that buying with the hope that I would lose weight was a bad strategy, I opted for the extra-large. When I got home, I realized that my old jacket was a large, not an extra-large and even though I tried them on at the store, I got the extra-large anyway. The coats were boxy, and the cuffs hung too low, I felt like someone in a tent. So, I thought, hey, maybe a tailor could help?
In the city, there are tailors on every street. It's unbelievable! How can that be? How do they compete? Well, I went to the one closest to me. A nice, older gentleman with a quiet smile, and an interesting backstory coming to this country and making a life. I felt in good hands. He measured, he adjusted, he pinned. All the things a good tailor should do. And then I left feeling like I made the right choice.
A week later I went back, but he informed me that he was still working on the last jacket. No problem, I said, and oh, by the way, how much will it cost? You see when we first met, I neglected to ask this question, and now was curious. I did not have a ticket like a normal dry cleaner, he simply took my name and number. He turned and looked at me with that sweet smile and said the jackets were a lot of work, much sewing and cutting, and that the work would be $360. I quickly remembered that I had only paid $210 for all three jackets with my coupons and looked at him in astonishment. I told him how could that be? I paid $140 less to buy them brand new. But I was told that there was much cutting and sewing! I walked out dazed.
I rolled it over and over in my mind every time I went to the bank to take the money out to pay this Thief of Baghdad. And then I would walk away from the bank. Finally, I realized, why pay this guy $360 when I can buy new jackets in the size I should have gotten in the first place for $210. So, when the Thief called, I told him to keep the jackets and that's when I learned that $360 was only a starting point. This was how he did business; so, I said $200, he said $300; I said $200; he said $250; I said $200; he said $210; I said done. Whew, I was exhausted. I didn't like this haggling. I felt like I was in some Turkish bazaar. All I wanted was my damn jackets tailored, which should have cost about $75.
In the end, I picked up the jackets and my tailor friend, he's a genius, he smiles and says he's going on vacation and looks forward to helping me in the future! I looked at this sweet old man who had out-negotiated me soundly and wished him a good vacation, and secretly whispered to myself to never go to this place again. The price was definitely not right!

|This article is about the series. You may be looking for the digital download release.
The second series of Thomas & Friends premiered on 24th September 1986 in the UK. Ringo Starr narrated all twenty-six episodes in the UK as well as seventeen of them on Shining Time Station, with George Carlin later re-narrating all of the episodes for the US.
The majority of the stories were originally written by the Reverend W. Awdry. However, Christopher Awdry was commissioned to write a new Railway Series book as source material for the second series. Two stories from More About Thomas the Tank Engine provided additional roles for Bertie the bus and Harold the helicopter. The episode Thomas and the Missing Christmas Tree was a one-off story written by Christopher Awdry. According to the original end credits for Thomas and Trevor, the episode is "based on the story by Christopher Awdry from original material by Britt Allcroft and David Mitton".
According to Robert Gauld-Galliers, "Gordon Goes Foreign" was originally intended for production, but it was not filmed because its production costs would have gone over-budget. Another episode called The Missing Coach, based on a story from The Twin Engines was due to be filmed. The model crew had gone as far as filming scenes on the Tidmouth Station set with Thomas arriving at the station before Britt Allcroft decided to cut the episode, citing a lack of action and a storyline which was too convoluted for young viewers to follow, so it was replaced by Thomas, Percy and The Coal. "Percy's Promise" and "Double Header" were originally considered but were dropped and replaced by Christopher Awdry's new stories.
(Note: * means that an episode was not narrated by Ringo Starr in the US and was only narrated by George Carlin in the US).
(Note: ** means that an episode was narrated by George Carlin in the US but was never re-aired on Shining Time Station and was only released on VHS or DVD.)
(Note: *** means both reasons.)
(Note: **** means that an episode was reused for Mr. Conductor's Thomas Tales).

I'm not sure if I did this exactly as the mini-assignment intended, but these photos demonstrate how I often obtain photos of moving objects (like birds). I spotted the Turkey Vulture soaring above the trees at Whitesbog and tried to guess where it might glide next. Happily, I was positioned so that the trees made a perfect frame and, luckily, the Vulture decided to glide between them.
I didn't have a lot of time to frame the shot, so I centered the area between the trees and took the top photo. Back home, I cropped the photo to obtain a nicely framed Turkey Vulture positioned near a Rule of Thirds sweet spot. This is pretty typical example of how I photograph birds, particularly those in flight. Let me know what you think.

3 Zodiac Signs That Won't Couple Up During Cuffing Season, So Don't Expect A Commitment
This morning when I woke up, my house was cold for the first time in months, and I thought (in my best mental Sean Bean voice): "Cuffing season is coming." Personally, I love the colder months. All the best holidays happen in fall and winter and I welcome the onset of cozy clothes and festively flavored coffee drinks with open arms. But along with all those benefits is an annual mass winter migration of singledom to coupledom, as folks begin to "cuff" up with the nearest warm body. Unless of course, you're one of the zodiac signs that won't couple up during cuffing season because, let's be honest, some signs just really do prefer to ride out the winter months free and single.
Not everyone feels the need to nest and stay close to home (Taurus, I'm looking at you) or treats the months of October through February like one long excuse to stay under the covers with their winter boo (ahem, Pisces). Nope, some are far too busy off on winter wonderland adventures or just not that interested in settling down in a short-term relationship regardless of what the weather report says. If that sounds familiar, then you're probably one of these zodiac signs who won't be doing any cuffing of any kind this winter.
Virgo (Aug. 23 To Sept. 22)
If there's one thing you'll never hear about perfectionist Virgo, it's that they're willing to settle for less than what they expect in a partner. This is a sign with extremely high standards, so the need to settle down with someone who normally wouldn't be right for them — or go back to an ex — just really doesn't appeal to Virgo. The one exception may be if they already have their sights set on someone and for whatever reason are hesitant to pull the trigger on a DTR conversation. In that case, the onset of cold winter weather may help give them that last final push they need to commit.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 To Nov. 21)
The cold winter that drives most signs indoors and subsequently into someone's arms doesn't really have the same effect on Scorpio. That's because this sign tends to really love the winter — it's their favorite season. They actually want to exist in the winter wonderland, so the season doesn't really have an effect on their social life in the way it does for less cold-weather loving signs who prefer to hibernate when the temperature drops. Now don't get me wrong, Scorpio won't be spending the season alone; they have no problem keeping things hot on those long, cold winter nights — they just won't feel the need to cuff up to do so.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 To Dec. 21)
Ever the restless spirit, Sagittarius has never even considered tying themselves down for the season by cuffing up. This is a sign that settles down only when they're ready, and that's set by an internal and personal clock — not by meteorological forces. In fact, the one force stronger in nature than Mother Nature herself might just be Sag's determination to never be held down. Besides, why would they want to stay indoors with the same person everyday when they could be out in nature enjoying all the new exciting things to do and see that winter brings? Nope, don't expect to see cuffs on these hooves any time soon
Obviously, there are exceptions to every rule. Some Virgos, Scorpios, and, yes, even a few Sagittarians may settle down with someone special over the winter. But chances are, if you find yourself cozied up to one of these signs, it's very likely for reasons that have nothing to do with cuffing up, and it's just as likely they will stick around long after the spring thaw.

United States District Court, D. Hawaii
February 13, 2018
RUTH-ANN SPRINGER, Plaintiff,v.FFICER BRIAN HUNT, ET AL., Defendants.
Michael Seabright Chief United States District Judge.
the court is Defendants Hawaii County Police
("HCP") Officer Brian Hunt ("Hunt"),
HCP Sergeant Wakita ("Wakita"), HCP Sergeant
Tingle ("Tingle"), HCP Officer Shaine
Tavares[1] ("Tavares"), and HCP Officer
Kenneth Ishii's ("Ishii") (collectively, the
"HCP Defendants") Motion to Dismiss pro se
Plaintiff Ruth-Ann Springer's ("Plaintiff")
Complaint.[2] For the reasons set forth below, the
Motion is DENIED.
Procedural Background
On June
8, 2017, Plaintiff filed a "Complaint for Violation of
Civil Rights" ("Complaint") against the HCP
Defendants and realtor Lori Henbest ("Henbest")
(collectively, the "Eviction Defendants"), and
State of Hawaii Judge Harry P. Freitas ("Judge
Freitas"), ECF No. 1, and an Application to proceed in
forma pauperis ("IFP Application"), ECF No. 4. On
June 23, 2017, Plaintiff filed a Motion for Temporary
Injunction. ECF No. 9. On July 11, 2017, this court granted
the IFP Application, dismissed the Complaint in part for
failure to state a claim, and denied the Motion for Temporary
Injunction (the "July 11 Order"). ECF No. 11. The
July 11 Order dismissed claims against Judge Freitas without
leave to amend, dismissed Plaintiff's conspiracy claim
with leave to amend, and determined that the remaining claims
against the Eviction Defendants could proceed. Id.
at 15-16.
August 1, 2017, Plaintiff filed a document titled
"Complaint: Write of Error is of the District of the
Hawaii Federal: Title 42, " which the court construed
as a First Amended Complaint ("FAC"). ECF No. 14.
On August 4, 2017, the court dismissed the FAC without leave
to amend for failure to state a claim and directed service of
the original Complaint against the Eviction Defendants. ECF
No. 16.
November 8, 2017, the HCP Defendants filed the instant Motion
to Dismiss. ECF No. 37. The court set Plaintiff's
response deadline for December 29, 2017. ECF No. 38. On
January 3, 2018, the court ordered Plaintiff to state whether
she intended to oppose the Motion to Dismiss and if so, why
she failed to meet the December 29, 2017 deadline to file her
Opposition. ECF No. 50. On January 5, 2018, Plaintiff filed a
"Notice of the Counter Claim of the Stay of the
Defendants Motion, " ECF No. 49, which the court
construed as both a response to the court's January 3
Order and an Opposition to the Motion to Dismiss, ECF No. 50.
On January 16, 2018, the HCP Defendants filed a Reply. ECF
No. 51. On January 22, 2018, Plaintiff filed a
"Statement and Proof for Not Dismissing the
Defendant's (sic) Hunt, et al. Claims: Case# 17-00269
JMS-KSC." ECF No. 52. A hearing was held on January 22,
Factual Background
action arises from a State of Hawaii foreclosure and
eviction, and subsequent criminal proceedings. As alleged in
the Complaint, on January 15, 2016, the Eviction Defendants
removed Plaintiff from her home on the Big Island of Hawaii
pursuant to an expired writ of possession. Compl. at 6
("3 Officers, 2 Sargent's, [(sic)] and a
Real-estate agent, using an old writ of possession that the
statute of limitation had run out . . . took possession of my
property."). Hunt allegedly "took down the KAPU
sign that was . . . protecting [Plaintiff] on her
land." Id. at 9. The Complaint further alleges
that Plaintiff "was home, " and when Hunt went to
move her from her seated position, she "raised both
arms and hands in the air and told [O]fficer Hunt, 'I
know you are arresting me. I am cooperating with you. I am
not resisting so what do you want me to do.'"
Id. at 11; see also id. at 9. Hunt arrested
Plaintiff. Id. at 9, 10; see also Id. at 11
("Officer Hunt made a personal decision to make it a
criminal matter."). Plaintiff was then detained,
subject to bail. See Id. at 7 ("I was detained
without my consent for violating a statute, I have just been
kidnapped."); see also Id. at 11 ("[T]he
prosecutors and Sargent Wakita set the ransom for my liberty
. . . [and state court] Judge Freitas confirmed the charges
and the ransom[.]").
Complaint alleges that during the course of Plaintiff's
Officer Hunt assaulted me . . . tearing my rotator cuff when
he grabbed my right arm and jerked me up from where I was
sitting. After hand-cuffing me, he picked me up by my hands
that were cuffed behind my back, forcing me to bend my body
in half to ease the pain in my shoulder joints. I begged him
to stop hurting me and that I was not resisting arrest. . . .
My arm has limits of motion that cannot be fixed. . . . Also,
when Officer Hunt was finger-printing me, he grabbed at my
fingers and squeezed hard. I complained because my fingers
are very sore and hurt when touched because of my
osteoarthritis disfiguration.
Id. at 9-10.
at some point during the eviction, Henbest "assaulted
me by shoving [me] into the hall wall hard enough to knock
the wind from me." Id. at 10. The Complaint
alleges that Henbest had the locks replaced on the home and
removed Plaintiff's possessions. Id.
"[B]anks and the real estate agent allegedly sold
[Plaintiff's] home." Id. at 9.
Subsequently, "people were moved into my home and after
the case was dismissed, my property was never
returned." Id. at 11.
remainder of the Complaint is filled with nonsensical
opinions, assumptions, conclusory allegations, and
pronouncements.[4] As a result of the foregoing, Plaintiff
allegedly suffered severe mental anguish and depression,
physical injuries, had a nervous breakdown, lost everything,
and became homeless. Id. at 11, 12.
Complaint asserts 42 U.S.C. § 1983 claims against the
Eviction Defendants in their individual capacities only,
[5] for
violation of, and conspiracy to violate, Plaintiff's
statutory and/or constitutional rights, particularly those
protected by the Fourth Amendment. Id. at 4-7,
The Complaint further asserts state-law claims for assault
and battery, and intentional and negligent infliction of
emotional distress. The Complaint seeks (1) compensatory
damages for permanent injuries to Plaintiff's shoulder;
(2) $2, 785, 750.00 in compensatory damages for the lost
property and the toll on Plaintiff's physical and mental
health; (3) $6, 913, 002.00 in "actual material
losses"; (4) $25, 000, 000.00 per violation (12
violations) of Plaintiff's rights protected by the United
States and Hawaii constitutions;[7] and (6) the incarceration of
all Defendants for five years, and forfeiture of all they
own. Id.
evidenced by documents publicly filed with the State of
Hawaii District Court of the Third Circuit, Puna Division,
and attached to the Motion, [8] a non-judicial foreclosure was
conducted against real property at 15-1784 13th Avenue,
Keaau, Hawaii 96749 (the "subject property"),
resulting in (1) a February 28, 2012 Judgment for
Possession[9] in favor of the Federal National Mortgage
Association and against Plaintiff (and two others), and (2) a
Writ of Possession, effective February 27,
2012.[10] See Exs. A, B, ECF Nos. 37-3,
37-4. The Writ commanded the removal of Plaintiff (and her
two co-defendants), and their personal belongings, from the
subject property. ECF No. 37-4.[11]
not provided by the parties, the court also takes judicial
notice of the state-court docket in the underlying
foreclosure action which shows that also filed on February
28, 2012 was an "Order Granting Plaintiff's Motion
for Summary Judgment and Writ of Possession" (the
"February 28, 2012 Order"). See Hawaii
State Judiciary's Public Access to Court Information
gov/#/case?caseId=3RC111000287 (last visited Feb. 7, 2018).
On March 9, 2012, Plaintiff filed a Motion for
Reconsideration of the February 28, 2012 Order, which was
granted on July 13, 2012. Id. The July 13
Order states that "[t]he February 28, 2012 Order
Granting Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment and Writ
of Possession is hereby stricken." Defs.' Notice,
Ex. 1 at 2, ECF No. 55-1. Somewhat confusingly, on December
19, 2012, a "Satisfaction of Judgment for Possession
Filed February 28, 2012" was filed that references the
February 28, 2012 Order and a March 25, 2012 lockout on the
subject property, but not the July 13, 2012 Order.
See Ho'ohiki, http://hoohiki.
courts.hawaii. gov/#/case?caseId=3RC111000287; see
also Defs.' Notice, Ex. 2 at 2, ECF No. 55-2. In
short, although the court takes judicial notice of these
state-court filings, they are confusing and provide this
court with no clear understanding as to the validity of
either the Judgment for Possession or Writ of Possession.
finally, the court takes judicial notice that on February 3,
2016, the County of Hawaii filed a criminal complaint in the
State of Hawaii District Court of the Third Circuit, Puna
Division against Plaintiff for "Criminal Trespass in
the First Degree, in violation of [Hawaii Revised Statutes
("HRS")] Section 708-813(1)(a)(1), " and
alleging that "[o]n or about the 15th day of January,
2016 . . . RUTH ANN SPRINGER knowingly entered and/or
remained unlawfully in a dwelling[.]" ECF No. 37-5.
Rule 12(b)(6)
Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) permits a motion to dismiss
for "failure to state a claim upon which relief can be
granted." A Rule 12(b)(6) dismissal is proper when
there is either a "'lack of a cognizable legal
theory or the absence of sufficient facts
alleged.'" UMG Recordings, Inc. v. Shelter
Capital Partners, LLC, 718 F.3d 1006, 1014 (9th
Cir. 2013) (quoting Balistreri v. Pacifica Police
Dep't, 901 F.2d 696, 699 (9th Cir. 1990)).
a plaintiff need not identify the legal theories that are the
basis of a pleading, see Johnson v. City of Shelby,
Mississippi, 135 S.Ct. 346, 346 (2014) (per curiam), a
plaintiff must nonetheless allege "sufficient factual
matter, accepted as true, to 'state a claim to relief
that is plausible on its face.'" Ashcroft v.
Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009) (quoting Bell Atl.
Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570 (2007)); see
also Weber v. Dep't of Veterans Affairs, 521 F.3d
1061, 1065 (9th Cir. 2008). This tenet - that the court must
accept as true all of the allegations contained in the
complaint - "is inapplicable to legal
conclusions." Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678.
Accordingly, "[t]hreadbare recitals of the elements of
a cause of action, supported by mere conclusory statements,
do not suffice." Id. (citing Twombly,
550 U.S. at 555); see also Starr v. Baca, 652 F.3d
1202, 1216 (9th Cir. 2011) ("[A]llegations in a
complaint or counterclaim may not simply recite the elements
of a cause of action, but must contain sufficient allegations
of underlying facts to give fair notice and to enable the
opposing party to defend itself effectively."). And the
court need not accept as true allegations contradicted by
judicially noticeable facts. Shwarz v. United
States, 234 F.3d 428, 435 (9th Cir. 2000); Heineke
v. Santa Clara Univ., 2017 WL 6026248, at *4 (N.D. Cal.
Dec. 5, 2017) (citing Shwarz).
"[a] claim has facial plausibility when the plaintiff
pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the
reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the
misconduct alleged." Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678
(citing Twombly, 550 U.S. at 556). Factual
allegations that only permit the court to infer "the
mere possibility of misconduct" do not show that the
pleader is entitled to relief as required by Rule 8.
Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 679.
Pro Se Pleadings
Plaintiff is proceeding pro se, the court liberally construes
her Complaint. See Erickson v. Pardus, 551 U.S. 89,
94 (2007); Eldridge v. Block, 832 F.2d 1132, 1137
(9th Cir. 1987) (per curiam). The court also recognizes that
"[u]nless it is absolutely clear that no amendment can
cure the defect . . . a pro se litigant is entitled to notice
of the complaint's deficiencies and an opportunity to
amend prior to dismissal of the action." Lucas v.
Dep't of Corr., 66 F.3d 245, 248 (9th Cir. 1995);
see also Crowley v. Bannister, 734 F.3d 967, 977-78
(9th Cir. 2013). A court may, however, deny leave to amend
where further amendment would be futile. See, e.g.,
Leadsinger, Inc. v. BMG Music Pub., 512 F.3d 522,
532 (9th Cir. 2008) (reiterating that a district court may
deny leave to amend for, among other reasons "repeated
failure to cure deficiencies by amendments previously allowed
. . . [and] futility of amendment").

This bill is not about improving New Hampshire's economy or increasing the freedoms of any worker in the Granite State. Instead it is an attack on all working families by special interests seeking to lower wages for everyone and undermine worker protections. This bill is designed to do one thing and one thing only: limit employees' ability to advocate on behalf of what's best for their families and communities. This bill will silence the teachers who advocate on behalf of smaller class sizes for our children, the transportation employees who negotiate for the equipment they need to keep the roads clear after a blizzard and the police and firefighters who negotiate for the staffing levels they need to keep us safe. It would take away the voices of tradespeople like ironworkers, pipe-fitters and line workers who negotiate the safety standards that keep entire industries safe.When working people aren't able to have a voice in what's best for our communities, we all lose.New Hampshire deserves real solutions to real problems, not attempts to limit working people's voice in their communities. The legislature was elected to advocate for the best interests of all New Hampshire working families, and we urge them to remember that. As the bill moves to the House we'll continue to do what we've always done: Stand with working families across the state to create a New Hampshire that works for everyone." ### CLICK HERE TO TELL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE THAT SO-CALLED "RIGHT-TO-WORK" IS WRONG FOR NEW HAMPSHIRE WORKING FAMILIES!

The day you first meet your baby is one of the most important days of your life. It's an amazing experience of strength and love and the most special introduction you will ever have. Let me help you capture those special memories that you might have missed otherwise. Birth can be unpredictable and your focus will be on bringing your baby into the world but I can be there to capture that first contact. The look on your face when you first see your baby, those first cuddles and skin to skin, breast-feed these are such magical moments that you will cherish for years to come.
Why is Birth photography so expensive? Because of the unpredictable nature of birth, we can't always predict when your baby will arrive and how long your labour will take. The cost is an all-inclusive package so on the day all you have to do is focus on yourself and your baby.
If you are having a C-section I will confirm that date with you beforehand, if anything changes please let me know as soon as you can. With natural birth, I will be on call for 3 weeks leading up to your birth. I strongly recommend you put your support person (be it your partner, mum or friend) in charge of making the call to me when you are heading to the hospital. I will be a there in the shadows and will not intrude into this most personal moment, I will not tell people to move or pose.
Birth is raw and beautiful and it's important to not have expectations of how things will go. It's also very important that you get permission beforehand from your hospital, midwife or o.b that I am permitted to attend your birth. This day is probably one of the biggest days of your life, you want to be in the moment with your partner so let me capture these precious memories for you with the most professional photography service I offer.

Were we to review the year in terms of gastronomic controversies, we might begin and end with the debate over chopped cheese. If your life in New York is purposely dull and cloistered, confined to the Caviar meal-delivery service, Showtime and the obsessive monitoring of Brooklyn real estate listings, then the furor over the sandwich — alternately known as chopped or chop cheese — may have escaped your notice entirely. If that is the case, you are, in effect, part of the problem, as disconnected as the reporter who ventured uptown and "discovered" the sandwich, a longtime offering at bodegas in the Bronx and Harlem, with the surprise of someone coming upon a new moon near Uranus.
The story begins early in the year with a video segment produced by the website Insider, featuring a millennial correspondent who sampled the chopped cheese (a combination of chopped ground beef, American cheese and condiments, piled on a hero) and described it as something most New Yorkers had never heard of, a "steal" at $4. This in turn prompted a very funny and popular video by a young comedian, Jeffrey Almonte, mocking Insider's tone-deafness and, by extension, the general dopiness of gentrifiers. What erupted was a conversation about whether the sandwich had been "Columbused" — which is to say "found" — when it had, in fact, existed all along. There were accompanying questions of exploitation, given that the chopped cheese had then become the subject of more extravagant variations in more rarefied places.
Last month, a short documentary, "Hometown Hero: The Legend of New York's Chopped Cheese," made its way online, envisioning, in part, further abuses: Would we awaken one day to find chopped cheese on a panini? Peak horror was reached recently, when the Whole Foods on West 59th Street briefly sold a chopped cheese for $8, out of a cart labeled, "1492," as if to say: "You're worried about Columbusing? We'll give you the Niña, the Pinta and the Santa Maria!" Internet rage followed. The cart, in fact, is a permanent fixture in the store, meant as a nod to its Columbus Circle location. On the day I visited, it was serving up nachos, to no obvious complaints of ethnic thievery.
It is hard to know when or how much to get exercised over culinary cultural appropriation, when the near-entirety of modern American cooking seems dependent on remix and influence. Chopped cheese isn't a cheeseburger, but it is also not substantially different from a cheeseburger, which is of course a riff on the hamburger, whose own origins in America in the 19th century are still awaiting consensus. Do we want to live in a world where we are waging war against Korean tacos?
It is class, rather than identity posturing, that is really at issue. During the past two decades, the increasing physical and psychic distance that has distinguished the relationship between moneyed urbanites and members of the working class has coincided with a tendency among the well positioned to ape the style and tastes of the people they are displacing. It is a warped form of tribute with only self-benefit. Bankers and lawyers move into former manufacturing neighborhoods, spend their weekends in Red Wing work boots and before long find themselves in thrall to the glamorized pilsner; the meatball; the breakfast sandwich of bacon, egg and cheese, which come to clerical assistants and plumbers off a cart on the sidewalk but to the more discriminating via heritage animals and the Berkshires. (Earlier this week, Gustavo Arellano, the editor of OC Weekly, an alternative newspaper in Southern California, was lamenting reports of a hipster bar in Los Angeles selling malt liquor served in brown paper bags, at $15 a bottle.)
You know a New York neighborhood has reached the final stage of its "renaissance" when a Doughnut Plant opens. Doughnut Plant stuffs its doughnuts with rose-water pudding and house-made jams and often organic ingredients, all of which add up to a vague sense of having remade Adam Sandler in the image of Kenneth Branagh doing "Henry V." Having begun on the Lower East Side more than 20 years ago, the company now has outposts in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, and Long Island City, Queens. But really, where does the world of Paula Deen end and Epicureanism begin? On its website, Doughnut Plant boasts something called the Blackout, made from chocolate cake, chocolate pudding, chocolate glaze and a sprinkling of chocolate cake crumbs.
It is the thought of just this kind of foodstuff, when ingested by a young child in the Mott Haven section of the Bronx, that causes mothers on the Upper West Side to quake and tremble and despair over food deserts and rising rates of obesity. There are certain New Yorkers, and certain kinds of food people, who appear to see no hypocrisy in telling the poor what they shouldn't eat as they sidle up to the counter at Shake Shack to order its vegetarian-fed, all-natural Angus beef burgers, and shakes made from milk with no growth hormones. It's never junk food if the price is high enough.
