Re: [UC]Judicial Elections 2005
sage advice Jim Cummings On Apr 1, 2005 11:17 PM, Anthony West [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My personal recommendation -- as a former political editor who used to specialize in Pennsylvania judicial politics, but also as a busy voter with little time to research and decide about these individuals, about whom it is impossible to learn much -- is as follows: Always vote NO on judicial retention. Every single judge, every single time. NO. The reasoning is that the cards are immeasurably stacked in favor of judges' winning retention races. If any judge has EVER been defeated for retention, I can't remember it. So if you vote NO on retaining a judge who happens, unbeknownst to you, to be great -- relax, it won't hurt him. The only way your NO vote could actually have an impact on a race would be if a judge were so outstandingly abominable that he had actually overwhelmed voter apathy and ignorance with his awfulness. If yours was the deciding vote that pushed such a clod off the bench -- well, it probably would be a good thing. So from now on, make your voting task easier. Just say NO to judges. It's the right thing to do. -- Tony West -- Jim Cummings J. W.

[UC] claw foot tub
Hi, I have a claw foot tub that doesn't have any feet. Anyone have some claw feet laying around? If not, anyone know where one might purchase feet for a claw foot?

[UC] University City List Butt Survey
In a message dated 4/1/2005 4:37:43 PM Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I thought that if you had to publicly postphotographs of say, your ass, on a weekly basis it might get you into thegym and back into fighting shape. Piggybacking on J Cass's excellent suggestion, I have inaugurated the University City List Butt Survey. This will work in a similar manner to the previous University City List Age Survey. UC List subscribers will send a jpg of their butts to the list, or, if squeamish, to me personally. I will post all entries on the University City Butt Survey page: http://rosslynnbender.org/ucbutt.html I've already received over a dozen entries. Understandably most subscribers will wish to keep photos of their butts anonymous, so I have in some cases erased the faces of overeager, exhibitionist submitters. Also, be aware that I will *not* post pictures of butts calculated to arouse prurient interest. So discretion is advised. Now this could work in a number of ways. We could have a contest to "Guess the UC Butt", although on second thought this might have unfortunate effects, as some of the rowdier list members would probably make insulting suggestions just to try to have a bit of fun. Perhaps a better idea would be simply to have a vote on the "Best UC Butt". As I receive more entries, I'll try to devise a fair and equitable way to conduct such a vote on the list.

Re: [UC] Slavery Disclosure Bill
I'm thankful for the history lesson this string has generated. However, slavery in modern times was also mentioned, by Brian Siano, I believe. By some estimates, there are more slaves alive in the world today than there have been at any point before in history. Many of them are used in difficult /or dangerous mining or harvesting operations. There is also the sex slave trade, of which many, if not most, could be classified as children (since 21-year-olds have more rights). This trade exploded with the fall of the Berlin Wall, with poor and desperate people trying to get out of Eastern Europe and into the golden West. Sex slavery in the West is different than in the East; virginity is not the commodity in Senator's sex toys in North America that it is in Bangkok. By the time some CEO has paid $35,000 for a slave, she has been systematically drugged, underfed, beaten and raped repeatedly, until all she (or he) has the energy to do is obey orders. It's scarcely surprising that such a slave's working life is only two years (and they're unlikely to live much longer), and there are tens of thousands of more slaves being taken every year. It is my belief that this practice will only fade slowly, as simulacra and virtual reality slowly reduce the demand, and as politics reduce the supply. As it is now, there are too many people in power who benefit fom it, both here in the US and in Mexico, as well as the Eastern European cartels that supply the slaves. So if you wanna stand up on your soapbox and work for justice, I would start there. Jed McKee. PS Much of my specific info on this is from a January 25, 2004 New York Times Sunday Magazine article, and and interview on WHYY radio Fresh Aire program on Monday of that week. (My specific dates may be a little off, but they're close to that.) --- John Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Salutations, gentlefolk, Mr. Siano mentioned sanctions against 'collaborators with the British during the Revolution'. The turth, however, is even stranger. Many Tories - King George III's partisans - had their property (including a good chunk of downtown Philly) confiscated during the revolution, and sold to finance the Continental war effort. In the Treaty of Paris (the US copy is in the American Philosophical Society library on 5th St) we promised to compensate them. Congress, however, never appropriated the money for this. Foward two hundred years or so, and in the Helms-somebody Act we insist that the Cubans must pay up for what they nationalized in '61. Of course the United Empire Loyalists (think Daughters of the American Revolution, turned inside out) have been keeping close track of the amounts due their ancestors, plus interest. Will a future Film Festival see a remake of Passport to Pimlico set in our neighborhood - but this time a documentary ?
