These guys are pretty impressive - lots of gobble noises while scurrying after the hens.

I remember in kindergarten we made clay models of turkeys at Thanksgiving...I think I painted rainbow colors on the tail of the turkey...that wasn't anatomically correct.  

To safeguard the future of our increasingly urban species, our cities must be sturdier, healthier and more alive.

Here’s the presentation I gave a few months ago at San Francisco’s awesome Nerd Nite. It’s based on a section of my book about how to make cities more resilient against disasters — and how to prevent cities from becoming an environmental disaster for the whole planet.

But the true dangers of the job are probably less well known. Nagle recounts how Michael Bloomberg, in discussing labor negotiations during his first mayoral campaign in 2001, suggested that “being a sanitation worker in this day and age is more dangerous than being a policeman or a fireman.” The comment was considered a gaffe, and the response was furious. But it turns out he was right.

It's hard to explain what brings a loved one to the point of hating you...when you're an addict. 

Addicts like to lie, steal, cheat, abuse others, violate anyone they can, and then manipulate every situation under the sun. 

Addicts often hurt anyone within an arms length with their self injurious behavior. 

Addicts take advantage of scenarios to fulfill their void. 

Addicts drive others over the edge with lists of distractions and stories to hide their behavior. 

 Ground Hog Day in Cleveland...

Oh Beautiful Cleveland....

Like a set of Capped teeth; Our homes are decaying from the inside out....

We slap some pretty pretty paint on the outside while our roots rot from mold, deterioration, and vandalism.

Like a set of capped teeth; Our people are rotten inside out.......won't be til those caps fall off that we'll see their black insides.

Like a set of capped teeth; our hearts are diseased from the decay that infiltrates our bloodstream.

UPDATE

 Many of the caller's into Tom Ashbrook's "On Point" Public Radio program said they had no problem with being monitored - because "they had nothing to hide".

Ignorance is bliss - for right now, anyway.

Mr. Orwell's 1984 strikes me as a caption for understanding WWII and Mr. Hitler's and Mr. Stalin's pograms.

But that was over a half century ago.  

I don’t know about the rest of you, but that one way trip to colonize Mars is looking pretty damn attractive right now. Infant mortality rates across the United States have increased by more than 35% since the nuclear disaster, according to a court statement by Dr.

.....you'll feel better

Gowdy's voice cracked when he told the story of one of his secretaries, who came into his office after hours to borrow some money.

Under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court order, the Guardian reported, Verizon Business Services must provide the NSA “on an ongoing daily basis” with information from calls between the U.S. and overseas—as well as from calls made entirely inside the U.S. Calls made entirely overseas were not affected. It was unclear whether phones in other Verizon divisions—its regular cellphone operations, for instance—were similarly targeted.

The National Security Agency and the FBI are tapping directly into the central servers of nine leading U.S. Internet companies, extracting audio, video, photographs, e-mails, documents and connection logs that enable analysts to track a person’s movements and contacts over time.

You are not allowed “to know” about it for certain, but you will be allowed “to believe” it exists.

Controlled information leaks are now being orchestrated to help you believe UFOs and ETs are real without giving you actual verifiable proof or established public facts fully accepted and verified by the Controlled Major Mass Media (CMMM), necessary to “christen” or fully legitimize any such story.

ARREST ALL THE MIDDLE CLASS MOTHER FLOWERS........ FOR THE WORKING CLASS PROSTITUTES(WORKERS AT LARGE): The next time you run your mouth about some demographically disadvantaged person to make yourself seem like a big shot who thinks they know something about America---because you're a working class mother flower who doesn't pay attention to politics while you pay taxes----well----kiss my arse! You are the waste of society that allows the politicians to keep on soaking up millions in federal subsidies and benefits while you sit on your arse doing nothing more than yapping.... Screw YOU!

COMMENT: It is more than a lit­tle inter­est­ing to note how many of the street drugs that have ruined the lives of Amer­i­can cit­i­zens (and cit­i­zens of other coun­tries) have their ori­gins with the Third Reich and/or I.G. Farben.

Another Middle Class mother flower talks shit about the little people and forgets about his public servant payroll costs.....keep drinking up buddy....keep avoiding to vote too....and by the way...don't hold your public leadership accountable; just pick on the welfare recipients at the bottom of the rung for all your troubles and disdainful misperceptions about how your tax dollars are being spent....meanwhile; the public servants pat you on the back, smile in your face, and keep sucking up the benefit packages---some are even double dipping...but how would you know???? WOOHOO!

I attended a military reunion recently. Thereafter; someone made a mockery of it. I thought about their idea of "what fun is?" ...and then I laughed at their pathetic (spoiled) existence as an American. To realize that there is such a lacking percentage of Americans who fail to recognize that they are a part of the problem and reasoning associated with why so many veterans commit suicide daily is the hugest sickening thing I have ever come to grips with in my life. You ungrateful, bullying jerks need your citizenship revoked.

 Juvenile Justice Center (cost overruns-toxic), CMHA new headquarters (cost overruns-disasterous "green" design),  Forlani VA complex (indicted on federal corruption charges-see how TIF and Port monies manipulated)

A heartbreaking photo from the funeral of Kentucky K9 officer Jason Ellis is proof of the incredible bond between police dogs and their partners.The 33-year-old officer was killed in a suspected ambush on Saturday and laid to rest soon after, according to the Lexington Herald-Leader.

 In the heat of another insane news week - it may have been lost on some folks that a young man was shot and killed outside of a library in Cleveland.  Another grim statistic.  A boy.

I personally believe that this $75 Million of Grant appropriated funds is the key to understanding how and why Rokakis never got federal time....he had the pen and paper in hand to negotiate the local region getting these funds...and he used it as a tool to stay out of jail....GET OUT OF JAIL FREE CARD...divisively used to build MILLION DOLLAR HOMES for the POOR....wow........If you cannot read between the lines; shame on you! Hey Tax Payers with Attitudes.....Keep voting for these pilfering politicians to sustain our community...

I really like this photo of the interior of one of Gus Frangos' shell LLC properties.  Ceilings caving in with big holes in the walls and floors.  I am not sure what the hell one would call this - some kind of new yuppie art?

A huge asteroid set to sail past Earth on Friday has its own moon, NASA scientists have just discovered.
