jim delaney

we've known about this for several days and chose not to post about it. jim delaney or "stud" as he's known to his friends was real good friends with our late grandpa and late uncle.

stud and our uncle grew up together at pollock in grant parish, louisiana and were life long friends. all three hunted many, many ducks together from our grandpa's duck blind on catahoula lake.

that stud has dementia is news to us. we saw him this past thanksgiving day at our aunt's home, sat across from him at the table and had a pleasant conversation with him. since then we've crossed paths a couple of times at super 1 grocery store in kingsville. the last time just a few weeks ago.

some locals may remember him as the long time manager of acme brick in alexandria.

all we know is that his car was discovered earlier this week in a rural area near the pollock prison and flagon creek.

3rd circuit court of appeal affirms astounding 40 year sentence for cottonport bank robber

noreply@blogger.com (wst...) — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 16:22:00 +0000

we agree with chief judge ulysses g. thibodeaux in his dissent.

[disclosure: we attended high school with mike gordon]

excerpt:

Considering that the trial court and the majority, in an effort to support the imposition of the forty year sentence, cited cases that had lower sentences but more aggravating circumstances, I find the sentence of forty years at hard labor without the benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence is a needless infliction of pain and suffering compared to other cases in this jurisdiction and other jurisdictions.
[...]
The legislature created a sentencing range for armed robbery of no less than ten years and no more than ninety-nine years—an eighty-nine year spread.

The vast spread was because there are multiple and varying circumstances involved in the crime of armed robbery as noted above, and the trial courts are granted much leeway in which to impose punishment.

For the reasons previously articulated, Defendant’s sentence makes no meaningful contribution to acceptable penal goals and is, therefore, constitutionally excessive in this case.

For the foregoing reasons, I respectfully dissent.

louisiana college latest publicity stunt: sues feds over a part of obamacare

noreply@blogger.com (wst...) — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 14:11:00 +0000

first off, we're opposed to abortion in whatever form; from the moment of conception onward.

on the other hand, birth control devices, such as condoms, which are supposed to prohibit fertilization/conception outright are another matter.

unlike animals, human beings can have sexual relations practically at any time. did god intend that each time human beings have sex that the result would be a baby?

obviously not because each month a woman is able to conceive only for a short period of time. so is it contrary to god's law or sinful to use birth control devices that prohibit conception? we're unsure about that but we do know that it is sin to murder a baby.

unfortunately, nowhere in louisiana college's complaint do they mention or complain about current interpretation of the commerce clause, wickard vs filburn or the more recent (2005) supreme court opinion in gonzales vs raich.

it is the federal government's position that the commerce clause due to outright treasonous interpretation of it by the supreme court such as in wickard and gonzales that since everything you do affects commerce -- they, the congress, can regulate it.

then house speaker, nancy pelosi even stated that obamacare is legal due to the commerce clause.

we predict that after the initial flurry of publicity that this complaint will disappear never to be mentioned again.

if louisiana college was truly interested in helping to create a better world for the unborn then they should use their resources to file suit and have the three (so far) unconstitutional and immoral, in perpetuity sales taxes that rapides parish children will have to pay and collect forever; with no say whatsoever thrown out.

mayor roy's sparc wealth transfer scam to focus on bolton avenue

noreply@blogger.com (wst...) — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 23:24:00 +0000

according to today's gannett/the alexandria daily town talk, in about two months, work on the $2,500,000.00, streetscape project on bolton avenue will begin.

while bolton avenue could definitely benefit from some sprucing up, one of our objections to the mayor's sparc wealth transfer/social engineering scam, is that a portion of the bond money that is financing it all is guaranteed by an unconstitutional and immoral "in perpetuity" sales tax that stupid, pathetic alexandrians voted on themselves which was bad enough and what's worse is that their children not even born yet are bound and liable to have to pay and collect this tax and never have a say on it.

new york banksters and bond holders love "in perpetuity" taxes and so do local "elites" who now have a guaranteed revenue stream to steal from and dole out to their cronies ... forever.

anyway, below is a video clip we shot back on 24 august 2011 of a portion of bolton avenue to jackson street out to the extension (jackson street extension).

h. brenner sadler & provosty, sadler, delaunay, fiorenza & sobel answer chrystal landry thompsons' malpractice; fraud lawsuit; jury trial ordered

noreply@blogger.com (wst...) — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 00:29:00 +0000

h. brenner sadler and the provosty, sadler, delaunay, fiorenza & sobel law firm recently answered chrystal landry thompsons' malpractice and fraud lawsuit according to image documents recently posted to the rapides parish clerk of court website.

in our opinion, after a very cursory reading of the answer, it looks pretty much like a standard denial as compared to other pleadings from different cases that we've read.

one interesting strategy that mr. sadler and the provosty firm are attempting to deploy is the invoking of estoppel.

it seems that mr. sadler and the provosty firm are saying that any harm that ms. thompson received is her own fault for not tending to or looking out for her own business in spite of the fact that she must have thought that she was hiring mr. sadler and his firm to do just that for her.

now mr. sadler alleges that it wasnt his job.

will the court or perhaps more importantly a jury buy that defense? do you? time will tell ... stay tuned ...

3rd circuit court of appeal denies cleco & public service commission writs in opelousas overbilling suits

noreply@blogger.com (wst...) — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 22:06:00 +0000

the alexandria, la. mayor and city council, who settled their fraud suit against cleco and especially the alexandria, ratepayers probably dont want to read this.

This case involves the consolidation of four writs into a single writ opinion.

Two of the writs, numbers 11-348 and 11-349, were filed by Cleco Corporation and Cleco Power, LLC (“Cleco”).

The other two writs, numbers 11-391 and 11-392, were filed by the Louisiana Public Service Commissioner (“the LPSC”), as intervenor in two separate class action suits which have been filed against Cleco by a putative class of utility ratepayers (“Ratepayers”) in the City of Opelousas.

Ratepayers seek reimbursement for alleged overcharges for electricity for a period of nearly twenty years.

In response to both lawsuits, Cleco filed exceptions of lack of subject matter jurisdiction, prematurity, and improper venue.

Following a hearing, the trial court denied Cleco’s exceptions.

We find no error by the trial court and, thus, deny these writs.

guest post:

I sincerely appreciate and am profoundly humbled by the outpouring of public support Slabbed New Media has received over the last 24 hours in response to the takedown of Slabbed.Org by two libel tourists connected to former Jefferson Parish President Aaron Broussard.

I am committed to continue covering the unfolding corruption scandal in Jefferson Parish via Slabbed.org.

Along those lines we are actively working to bring the investigative blog back online, fully shielded from that specious Canadian defamation judgment pending resolution of Slabbed New Media’s Declaratory Action against Trout Point Lodge, Limited, Charles Leary and Vaughn Perret in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi under the SPEECH Act of 2010.

Please bear with us while we execute our plan and I look forward to seeing everyone back home on Slabbed.Org very soon.

Slabbed.Org has been disabled due to Libel Tourism

To: all regarding the inquiries about Slabbed.Org and selected Bloggers/members of the media:

Charles Leary of Trout Point faxed a Canadian court order against me personally to Blue Host, my new webhost yesterday.

They knee jerked and disabled the domain.

Webhosts as a general rule do not like to be in legal pissing contests but I am holding their feet to the fire couching this as Free Speech and Journalism in the Public Interest.

This represents the line in the sand for Slabbed and comes at a time when our reporting on the major political corruption scandal in Jefferson Parish has borne fruit, especially our exploration of the defamation case filed by Aaron Broussard business associates Charles Leary and Vaughn Perret against Louisiana Media Company LLC aka Fox 8 New Orleans which has exposed several conspirators involved in the ongoing Federal Investigation.

This is uncharted legal area for US based web hosts.

They know they can not act without a domesticated court order but they really do not want to end up in a legal pissing contest.

Blue Host is in consultations with my lawyer and are hopefully having second thoughts as I have not violated their Terms of Service.

There have been several people that have taken it upon themselves to call Bluehost.com at (888) 401-4678 to complain. The TOS department is option 5.

I am on twitter in the interim @slabbedblog.

Also Ignatius Reilly has created a free speech in exile page for the Slabbed Nation.

http://ignatiusjeffreilly.wordpress.com/free-speech-in-excile/

He has also posted on the Slabbed takedown:

http://ignatiusjeffreilly.wordpress.com/2012/02/13/public-sevice-information-spot-on-free-speech/

You can help by calling Bluehost and politely registering your displeasure. Also you can help by getting the word out to your readers and trusted associates.

I have been in communication with Blue Host Legal and we hope to have this matter resolved today.

In any event I will be filing for a TRO ASAP as part of my Complaint for Declaratory relief under the SPEECH Act of 2010 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi.

Unfortunately Slabbed may be down in the interim until I can get a court ruling on the TRO motions.

"the abduction of psyche"

noreply@blogger.com (wst...) — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 12:02:00 +0000

click picture to enlarge"the abduction of psyche"
william-adolphe bouguereau (1895)

The painting The Abduction of Psyche (which is also known by the French title Le ravissement de Psych ) is one of artist William Bouguereau's most recognizable and famous works.

The Abduction of Psyche was inspired by an episode from Classical mythology, and Bouguereau was certainly not the first to be fascinated by the legend.

Indeed, the tale of Psyche and Cupid (or Eros, if you prefer the Greek name for Cupid) has appealed to many painters and poets over the centuries. But the way in which the artist has depicted his version of the myth is what makes this particular image so memorable.

In this painting, the beautiful woman Psyche is being carried by her immortal lover Cupid.

Bouguereau biographer Fronia E. Wissman writes poetically of this piece: "...she [Psyche] is literally being transported by love." And this, in essence, is what the image represents.

Psyche seems lost in a blissful reverie. She is being embraced by the handsome god of love, who, with his elegant wings and idealized features, seems custom made to drive young women into a frenzy of admiration and desire.

The two figures almost seem as one in this work, and together their bodies form a lyrical arrangement.

Floating draperies - delicate lilac for Psyche and muted blue-grey for Cupid - complete the composition and give the painting a subtle but sophisticated diagonal emphasis.

It is also worth noting that the composition of The Abduction of Psyche is similar to one of Bouguereau's much earlier works, his beautifully decorative painting The Dance (which is in the collection of the Muse d'Orsay).~ source

hammond, la. lifts beekeeping ban within city limits

noreply@blogger.com (wst...) — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 23:23:00 +0000

via: twitter @nolanews ||| view tweet

kudos to the hammond, louisiana, city council, the two fourth grade classes at north live oak elementary school in watson and their teachers, the louisiana state bee inspector and local beekeepers and all other proponents for working together to rescind this beekeeping ban.

the times-picayune reports that the ban has been in place for more than fifty years and that it is "unclear why beekeeping had been banned in hammond."

we call on all other city councils, police jury's, governing authorities and especially that collection of freaks, perverts, criminals and lunatics who comprise the organized crime gang which calls itself the loony looziana legislature to follow hammond's lead and rescind all the other unnecessary, inexplicable, freedom killing laws, rules and regulations throughout louisiana wherever they exist.

city of alexandria, la. loses appeal in coughlin saunders performing arts center leak scandal

FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY

This suit involves the design and construction of the Coughlin Saunders Performing Arts Center (hereafter the Center) located in Alexandria, Louisiana, which opened in August of 2004.

On June 29, 2009, the City of Alexandria filed suit against Ratcliffe Construction Company, LLC, who built the Center.

Also named as defendants were the architects of the Center, Ashe Broussard Weinzettle Architects, LLP and Witsell Evans & Rasco, PA (hereafter the Architects).

The City alleged that subsequent to the Center‟s completion, it “sustained rainwater intrusion in several locations, through its masonry wall systems.”

The City contended the rainwater intrusion and corresponding damage was the direct result of the defective workmanship of Ratcliffe Construction and the negligent design of the Architects.
[...]
The City failed to show cause by failing to meet its burden of establishing it could satisfy its evidentiary burden at trial.

Thus, the trial court's grant of summary judgment was not premature.

DECREE

For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the trial court granting the Architects‟ Motion for Summary Judgment is affirmed.

Costs of this appeal are assessed to appellant, the City of Alexandria.

AFFIRMED.

russian navy captures somali pirates

noreply@blogger.com (wst...) — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 22:27:00 +0000

via: email forward

====

The old pirate laws are back in force, at least for the Ruskeys.

This would tend to reduce the number of repeat offenders.

RUSSIAN NAVY CAPTURES SOMALI PIRATES

How about that - The Russians captured the Pirates, tied them up, put them on the boats, then set them all on fire - puff no more Pirates!

NO POLITICAL CORRECTNESS BS HERE! This video shows Russian Navy commandos on a Somalian pirate ship shortly after the pirates had captured a Russian oil tanker.

The Euro Union navy that patrols these waters would not interfere because they feared there could be casualties.

All explanations are in Russian with a single exception of when a wounded pirate says something in English and the Russian soldier says "This is not a fishing boat".

All conversations between the commandos are in Russian. If you don't understand Russian, the pictures speak for themselves.

The soldiers freed their compatriots and the tanker. The Russian Navy Commandos moved the pirates back to their own (pirate) ship, searched the pirate ship for weapons and explosives and then they left the ship and exploded it with all remaining pirates hand-cuffed to it.

The commandos sank the pirate ship along with the pirates and without any court proceedings, lawyers etc. That is, they used the anti-piracy laws of the 18th and 19th centuries where the captain of the rescuing ship has the right to decide what to do with the pirates.

Usually, they were hanged. Russian ships should not be popular targets for future Somali pirates.
