Some time ago the owner of Café Y offered to make a point of sale for Malaak in the café, so we put up a little stand and it sits by the cash register. I'm there 3-4 time a week so I top them up when necessary, and the staff slips me my earnings every time they make a sale.
The other day I walked in with M, went to the cashier to order, and the guy immediately handed me some rolled-up money. M gave me an amused look:
"Your protection money, right?"

In port the next two weeks.
My ship will be dry docking in Algiers at the Bollinger Shipyard for two weeks beginning in a day or two.
Not sure how much time I'll be allowed off the ship... but if I am I was wondering if there was anything cool around the waterfront there to do, or any cool folks who want to hang with a sailor.
Or more importantly any dangers to avoid around there.

I have a friend who has 7 rabbits, 2 adults, 5 very young (weeks) kits. One was just diagnosed with Pasteurellosis (Snuffles). I know very little about bunnies but from the little I know and from what I looked up I recommended this:
* Isolate the sick
* I would bottle feed the sick ones so that they can't spread it via nursing
* Treat all the exposed rabbits
* Make sure their bedding/cage is very clean
* Have the vet culture one of them (if that wasn't already done) because you want to make sure this particular strain is susceptible to Baytril, if its not, you might need to switch antibiotics.
Does anyone else have other recommendations? Or is anything I recommended not advised?

LOST--Brown Female Pitbull/Lab mix--Bywater/Marigny
Large Brown Female Pitbull/Lab mix, lost July 3 night. REWARD if found.
9 years old, spayed, somewhat overweight. Will answer to the name "Hoochie Mama" or "Hooch." Please say her name before you approach her, as she is skittish. We miss her very, very, very much, and she's never been out on her own. We think the pre-4th of July fireworks in the neighborhood may have scared her.
Thank you.
Please call

Quandary
So, I'm moving back to New Orleans (finally!) on September 1st. I'm in Illinois at the moment, counting down the days. And I'm apartment-hunting.
I found the most beautiful apartments I've seen in any state in years, except it's in the middle of freaking nowhere on the West Bank.
I am willing to compromise on the lack of proximity to public transport if I can get three questions answered:
1. Is it a fairly nice neighborhood?
2. How did that area get through Katrina?
3. So what is around there, anyway?
I used to live Uptown near the streetcar and I'd love to live in something like this up there, but 2 bedrooms under $900 and cat-friendly in that quality of apartment is pretty much impossible.

Fireworks
9th ward.
Would you like to know how the citizens of the 9th ward were treated tonight? The harbor police and military police, prevented us from access to the river.
Mazant and Chartres has always been a tradition. We go to the river to watch the fireworks.
Officer Washington, kicked us all off the river tonight and we were forced to watch the fireworks from behind a chain link fence.
The citizens of New Orleans, stood behind a fence, in jail, prevented from access to their own riverfront.
We were prevented from every tradition that is this city and treated like criminals while watching fireworks. They say we are citizens of this city. Are we?
Or are we just part of your plan to take over all beauty that is the 9th ward? Jailed behind fences, treated like criminals, prevented from access to OUR riverfront.
His name, officer Washington in the harbor police, he said we couldn't be there, we were criminals in our neighborhood, during our own traditional celebration.
We stood hundreds strong, watching the fireworks anyway. We celebrated our freedom behind a fence.

Goodbye Boss man :(
My boss's last day was yesterday. He managed to get a job at a hospital working as a manager over their non-medical helpdesk.
After he left yesterday it really hit that in 87 days, I won't have a job. I'll be living off severance for 4 months. I really hope I have a new job lined up at the end of the 90 days. The severance package is just too good to leave early. Especially considering the health care continues for 4 months after I get laid off...
I'm going to miss my casino job. :(

Jillian Michaels kicked my ass. I can't do a modified pushup. What is sad is I have been working out for a month. I have cardio bootcamp in a week. I am just want to do a pushup!
Does anyone know how many points the first workout is in Jillian' Shred dvd?
