Creating a fairer Britain
The Trans Research Review, a review of evidence on inequalities conducted for the Commission (Mitchell and Howarth 2009) (1) reminds us that:
'it is only in the last decade that trans people have been accorded rights and given protection in law from discrimination. There is growing recognition of the discrimination, inequalities and social exclusion that trans people face by policy makers and the public. Much of the progress achieved in the last decade can be attributed to successful campaigning by trans groups such as Press for Change.'
'The qualitative and quantitative evidence that has been collected to date (see, for example, Whittle and colleagues, 2007) leaves no doubt that trans people experience severe discrimination and frequent infringements of their rights across a broad spectrum of areas of life' (Alkire et al 2009).
The trans review highlights the inequalities and high levels of discrimination trans people face including: attitudes towards trans people; housing; education; crime; economic status and employment; health and social care; media, leisure and sport; family life and relationships; community and citizenship (Mitchell and Howarth 2009).
Existing evidence suggests that trans people experience, and are badly affected by, transphobia, in a wide range of forms. This includes bullying and discriminatory treatment in schools, harassment and physical/sexual assault and rejection from families, work colleagues and friends. For example, Morton (2008), found that 62 per cent of respondents had experienced transphobic harassment from strangers in public places who perceived them to be trans. Whittle et al (2007) also found that a majority of respondents had faced harassment in public spaces. They noted that '73 per cent of respondents experienced comments, threatening behaviour, physical abuse, verbal abuse or sexual abuse while in public spaces.' Tackling transphobia must be a priority.
No major Government or administrative surveys have collected data by including a question where trans people can choose to identify themselves. Publicly collected data on trans people is virtually non-existent, though there is some evidence on attitudes towards trans people, for example in the 2006 Scottish Social Attitudes Survey 50 per cent of people said they would be unhappy if a close relative formed a relationship with a transsexual person (Bromley et al, 2007) and in the Commission's Who Do You See? attitudinal survey in Wales, the figure was 47 per cent (EHRC, 2008).
At present, there is no official estimate of the trans population. The England/Wales Census and Scottish Census have not asked if people identify as trans and do not plan to include such a question in 2010. GIRES, in their Home Office funded study estimate the number of trans people in the UK to be between 300,000 - 500,000, defined as '..a large reservoir of transgender people who experience some degree of gender variance' (Reed et al 2009) (2)
The absence of public data raises significant concerns for populating the Equalities Measurement Framework, in order to map the changing face of inequality for trans people. There are a number of important sensitive methodological and ethical issues that need to be addressed when collecting public data on trans people:
We have relied on the good work of key individuals and organisations like: Press for Change, GIRES, a:gender, and the Scottish Transgender Alliance, amongst others, to develop the evidence base on trans people. However, it is vitally important that key public bodies and a wide range of organisations come together to support this work, and we move forward the appropriate collection of public data on trans people. Evidence is the key to making services reflect everyone's experiences and meet their needs.
(1) The review was closed early 2009, therefore will not include recent evidence.
(2) 'The adults who present emerge from a large reservoir of transgender people, who experience some degree of gender variance. They may number 300,000, a prevalence of 600 per 100,000, of whom 80% were assigned as boys at birth. However, the number would be nearly 500,000, if the gender balance among transgender people is equal. Service providers and employers need to be aware of this large group, who, whether or not they present for medical treatment, may still experience discrimination and be vulnerable to bullying and hate crime.' (Reed et al 2009:4)

Madeira Beach, FL 33708
Alcohol Consumption After Eating Reduces Insulin LevelsPosted: Wednesday, November 26, 2003
"We know that drinking alcohol can affect the body's production of insulin," lead author Dr. Anna Kokavec said in a statement. "However, researchers in the past have obtained mixed results and it is only now becoming clear that the effect of alcohol on insulin may depend on the presence or absence of food."
In the current study, Dr. Kokavec and Dr. Simon F. Crowe, from La Trobe University in Bundoora, Australia, measured plasma insulin and glucose levels in eight non-diabetic subjects who consumed a test meal and then drank three standard units of wine (30 g of alcohol). Levels were measured before and after the meal and during and after wine consumption.
Drinking just half of the total alcohol amount caused a significant drop in insulin levels. In fact, this level "was similar to the level of insulin usually seen before a meal," Dr. Kokavec noted.
The fall in insulin levels was "accompanied by a similar lowering of the blood-glucose level and, in some individuals, to a very dangerously low level," she added.
In addition to health implications for alcohol consumers, the new findings highlight the need to control for nutritional status when conducting alcohol research, the authors conclude.

A new publication from the Strategic Society Centre, with support from PwC as well as BUPA, Age UK and Tunstall, seeks to provide a long term vision for adult social care funding. This is the first of a series of publications on the funding options for social care in the UK.
"A Vision for Adult Social Care Funding", November 2010, is a deliberately ambitious document. It defines in clear and specific terms those outcomes that a new settlement on the funding of social care and support should seek to achieve, and provides a 'checklist' for stakeholders, defining key outcomes that could be sought from a new settlement on long-term care funding.

The weekend brings another chance of rain – possibly during Saturday's Husker game, but more likely on Sunday, when about 10,000 people are expected to participate in the Omaha Corporate Cup.
Runners take note: The Corporate Cup will go on rain or shine.
Josh Boustead, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service, said there's a slight chance for rain Saturday before and during the game. It wouldn't hurt, he said, to bring some rain gear, but fans could very well dodge any weather issues. Skies are likely to be cloudy. Temperatures at the start of the game are expected to be in mid-60s and then rise to the mid-70s by game's end, he said.
Conditions are likely to change overnight, though. Boustead said the chance for rain and storms picks up after midnight.
A storm front could move through Omaha at about 6 a.m. or 7 a.m., meaning there's a good chance that Omaha Corporate Cup participants will see rain, he said.
The National Weather Service pegs the Saturday night odds of rain at 60 percent and Sunday odds at 40 percent. Rain chances linger into next week.
Lisa Sypal of the American Lung Association said the Corporate Cup will be held rain or shine. If lightning is a problem, the race will be delayed, she said.
The 10K run begins at 8 a.m at Aksarben Village, and any weather-related announcements will be made on site, beginning at 6:30 a.m.
Boustead, a runner, said Corporate Cup participants can expect a humid morning. With temperatures forecast to be in the 60s, any rain might feel cool, but not bone-chilling, he said.
Sunday's rain is likely to come in the form of light or steady showers, with only a few scattered storm cells.
Rainfall amounts are forecast in the 1/3- to 1/2-inch range, while areas directly under thunderstorms will see higher totals.

First time clients. Not to be combined with any other offer.
Since moving to the west coast I never dreamed it would be difficult finding a stylest that has mastered the art of Blondes. That is until my boss reccomended Alamode Hair salon in California. My friend and I decided to take the long trip (4 hrs) and turned out it was well worth it. The team at the salon took the time and focus to ensure that my friend's extentions were perfect and that my hair color was the most amazing, unique shade of blonde with absolutely no damage! I know nothing about doing hair, but what I do know is that I have never left a salon so satisfied! To thumbs up for Alena and her awesome team at Alamode Hair Salon!
I had a horrible experience at this salon. It was actually my first time dying my hair and i wanted to get it done professionally so that there wouldn't be any mistakes a few days before a major event i had coming up. Alina did my hair and did NOT understand what i wanted, instead she did what she thought was suitable which was about 5 stands of highlights which did not make a difference in my long hair and charged me $98. I came out the salon feeling ripped off and my hair did not look any different then when i walked in. I ended up buying a box of color the next day and dying it myself and got better results. Not professional, way too overpriced, just overall not happy with my visit. save yourself the annoyance the money and the time and go somewhere else.
my new favorite salon – I live in Glendale, but had been trekking over to trendy Silverlake to get my hair done. I just couldn't find the time to get over there, so I finally went to Alina. What was I waiting for?! The salon is sooo close to my house, has plenty of parking and is in a beautiful upstairs loft with views of the mountains. Alina really took the time to listen to what I wanted in a haircut and then gave me just what I wanted and needed. I've had so many compliments! The salon was very busy that day, so like a good restaurant, I think a busy salon is a sign of a good salon with happy customers. I'll be going back soon : )
Thank Goodness! – Thank Goodness for A la Mode Hair Studio and Maria Blankevoort! I am a new client here and for the past 20 years have been going to the same salon in Glendale, when my stylist decided to move! (How dare she! hehe) I was very sad to see my stylist move because it's so difficult to find someone that you love and trust to do your hair.
I am an older woman, and the older I get the more picky I become about my hair and who styles it, so naturally I was a little hesitant to try someone new after 20 years but Maria was HIGHLY recommended by my old stylist and so I trusted her opinion and went. I was PLEASANTLY surprised. She is a young, sweet girl and listened to my needs and was very patient with me. I know it's hard being the new stylist when a client is so set in their ways, but she surpassed every expectation and I must say I will be a returning client. I couldn't be any happier!
The Salon itself is clean, and they offer snacks and drinks and made me feel very comfortable in my first experience there. Great Salon and talented stylists. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Great Atmosphere – I have been coming here over a year and my experience has been awesome. The girls are very friendly and professional. Alina has been taking care of my highlights and extentions. People give me so many compliments on my hair. Love, love this salon. I would definately recommend this place & my hair stylist Alina to anyone.
DO NOT GO TO MARIA! HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE! – I am absolutely disgusted by Maria Blankevoort actions at this salon.
She didn't listen to what i wanted, she destroyed my hair, and on TOP of that, she offered to fix it, and then flatly changed her mind! so unprofessional! she left me with fried, ugly hair! COMPLETELY HORRIBLE!!
the cut is bad, the color is muddy, dingy, and whacked, and NOT WHAT I WANTED!, and literally makes me cry.... as a friend said, my hair is now: 'a hot mess' what a terrible experience, on every level. I am truly devastated.
As the owner of the salon I would like to appologize for the experience you had! Knowing Maria, I know she does amazing work, not sure what must have gone wrong...I am sure there is a good reason for the experience you have had! If there is anything you would like to discuss further, please call me at the salon to resolve this issue! I am sure your hair is fixable to a point where you can be happy :)
Owner/Master Stylist
Arsineh is awesome!!!!! – You have to ask for Arsineh! I've been going to her for many many years now and followed her everywhere and when she landed here, it's an awesome salon!!! I've never met a such talented hair dresser like Arsineh. You tell her what you want and she'll give you her opinion and you go with it. Love the way she cuts, color makeup and styles my hair. She does amazing job .A La Mode hair studio is located in the right spot. Go get your hair done and go shopping after!!! And to top it off everyone there is so friendly and happy all the time. And to top it off they have a great selection of hair products! .. Love it!!! Love it!!! Love it!!!! Remember ask for Arsineh!!!!!
Lovely – The moment you walk into A'La Mode, you know that you're not in any typical hair salon. The space is goregous. It really matches my aesthetic. I was referred here by a close friend because the place I had been going to closed down. (btw there seem to be a hundred different hair salons in Glendale).
My stylist was Maria. I needed the whole deal. I needed to touch up my roots, I need some highlights and a cut. It had been a couple of months since I had my hair done.
My hair turned out great. I didn't have one complaint about how it looked. Maria did a fantastic job and she was so nice. I spent a pretty penny at the salon and that was the only drawback that I could find. I'm not really used to paying so much for my hair. I do have to say they did a fantastic job.
Maria works her magic! – Maria did an absolutely AMAZING job on my color and extensions. She is very professional and skilled at what she does, and it definitely shows in her work! The salon was very nice and had a positive, upbeat atmosphere, which made my experience that much more enjoyable! I have never received so many compliments on my hair before! It's extremely hard to come by a stylist that you are constantly happy with the results you get, and Maria always delivers! Could not be more content! Thank you Maria for making me beautiful!
Lindsey Spray's Facials are a sweet treat! – Getting a facial from Lindsey was relaxing, rejuvenating and FUN! Not only does Lindsey give you the ultimate treatment but she also uses products that are all natural and smell delicious. I left feeling so well taken care of of took home with me the oatmeal scrub that she used on me by SIAN. Lindsey is so attentive and thorough with her treatment I highly recommend you see for yourself.

DEA Forgot College Student In Holding Cell For 5 Days Without Food Or Water On 4/20 Day!
Description: "Chong said he was at a friend's house in University City celebrating 4/20, a day many marijuana users set aside to smoke, when agents came inside and raided the residence. Chong was then taken to the DEA office in Kearny Mesa. He said agents questioned him, and then told him he could go home. One agent even offered him a ride, Chong said. No criminal charges were filed against him. But Chong did not go home that night. Instead, he was placed in a cell for five days without any human contact and was not given food or drink. In his desperation, he said he was forced to drink his own urine.". S/o @tapdizzle

Proposed plan for former CONSOL property tabled
Proposed plan for former CONSOL property tabled
At the request of the developer, on Feb. 21, the Upper St. Clair Township Planning Commission tabled action on a master plan for development of the former Consol property on Washington Road.
According to Scott Brilhart, director of community development for the township, the developer has submitted a traffic impact study and is working on updating the study to address comments from the township traffic engineer.
There are 33 housing units on the proposed plan, including 12 townhomes and 21 patio homes at the development being called Siena at St. Clair, Brilhart said.
A 39,000-square-foot Whole Foods Market is proposed along Washington Road, with some underground parking beneath the market, in addition to surface parking.
A drive-through coffee shop is being proposed on the site, but the developer did not reveal a tenant at the Feb. 21 meeting.
There is one entrance off Washington Road proposed for the development, and one proposed on Fort Couch Road as a right turn in and out only, Brilhart said.
The 28-acre property was the focus of several well-attended public hearings in 2011 by the planning commission and the board of commissioners regarding a zoning text amendment sought by the developers that would permit multi-family housing units on the site, as well as a list of more than 20 commercial uses that were not previously permitted there under the current Special Business District zoning.
Hundreds of residents packed the meeting rooms at the township's Community & Recreation Center for the meetings, which had to be moved to the larger venue from the municipal complex due to the level of public interest in the subject. At that time, residents expressed concern about the potential effect on traffic, property values, the impact on schools, and buffer zones separating their homes from the property.
Within the last six months, a two-level Dick's Sporting Goods store opened directly across Route 19 from the site, as well as a new Bonefish Grill restaurant. A new Target store also opened this week.

oh ya right.......exactly....
hi Maiya
means it has an 'argument' of theta measured anticlockwise from the positive x axis.
Using this
Hello anonimnstefy....
That is called an Egyptian fraction.

And just as dford i'm stuck with
Hello everyone
Hi dford;
Yep that was my dream. If it turns out to mean something I'd be happy.
hi Don
Doesn't ring any bells for me but maybe you have stumbled upon a new and significant constant. Let's call it dford's constant.
The 'math stuff' is called Latex. Have a look at

Next: Bracket Expressions, Previous: Escape Sequences, Up: Regexp
You can combine regular expressions with special characters, called regular expression operators or metacharacters, to increase the power and versatility of regular expressions.
The escape sequences described earlier in Escape Sequences, are valid inside a regexp. They are introduced by a '\' and are recognized and converted into corresponding real characters as the very first step in processing regexps.
Here is a list of metacharacters. All characters that are not escape sequences and that are not listed in the table stand for themselves:
It is important to realize that '^' does not match the beginning of a line embedded in a string. The condition is not true in the following example:
if ("line1\nLINE 2" ~ /^L/) ...
if ("line1\nLINE 2" ~ /1$/) ...
. (period)
In strict POSIX mode (see Options), '.' does not match the nul character, which is a character with all bits equal to zero. Otherwise, nul is just another character. Other versions of awk may not be able to match the nul character.
[^ ...]
The alternation applies to the largest possible regexps on either side.
The '*' repeats the smallest possible preceding expression. (Use parentheses if you want to repeat a larger expression.) It finds as many repetitions as possible. For example, 'awk '/\(c[ad][ad]*r x\)/ { print }' sample' prints every record in sample containing a string of the form '(car x)', '(cdr x)', '(cadr x)', and so on. Notice the escaping of the parentheses by preceding them with backslashes.
awk '/\(c[ad]+r x\)/ { print }' sample
Interval expressions were not traditionally available in awk. They were added as part of the POSIX standard to make awk and egrep consistent with each other.
Initially, because old programs may use '{' and '}' in regexp constants, gawk did not match interval expressions in regexps.
However, beginning with version 4.0, gawk does match interval expressions by default. This is because compatibility with POSIX has become more important to most gawk users than compatibility with old programs.
For programs that use '{' and '}' in regexp constants, it is good practice to always escape them with a backslash. Then the regexp constants are valid and work the way you want them to, using any version of awk.2
Finally, when '{' and '}' appear in regexp constants
in a way that cannot be interpreted as an interval expression
(such as
/q{a}/), then they stand for themselves.
In regular expressions, the '*', '+', and '?' operators, as well as the braces '{' and '}', have the highest precedence, followed by concatenation, and finally by '|'. As in arithmetic, parentheses can change how operators are grouped.
In POSIX awk and gawk, the '*', '+', and
'?' operators stand for themselves when there is nothing in the
regexp that precedes them. For example,
/+/ matches a literal
plus sign. However, many other versions of awk treat such a
usage as a syntax error.
If gawk is in compatibility mode (see Options), interval expressions are not available in regular expressions.

Noor Ali stars in Afghanistan innings
Noor Ali produced a wonderful half century to help Afghanistan set India a victory target of 115-8 after the Afghans had been reduced to 29-3.
Having been put into bat by the Indians, Afghanistan got off to a solid start against one of the favourites to win the tournament.
After enjoying a fairy tale rise through the cricketing pyramid the Afghans were full of confidence as Noor Ali and Karim Sadiq saw off the first over from Praveen Kumar.
Just to years ago the war torn country was playing in Division Five of the ICC World Cricket League facing associates like the Bahamas, Botswana and Germany.
Reality was brought home in the next over by Ashish Nehra who highlighted the vast gap between the test playing nations and the top associates like Afghanistan and Ireland.
After bowling a couple of full balls Nehra drew Karim Sadiq (0) into playing at a short ball which the batsman gloved through to wicket keeper MS Dhoni to male the first break through.
With the early loss of Karim Sadiq the Afghans needed to remain calm and not panic but in his next over Nehra struck again to remove Mohammad Shahzad (6) with a similar dismissal to that of Karim Sadiq.
Although Shahzad felt he never touched the ball umpire Marais Erasmus was more convinced raising his finger to leave the Afghans 22-2 after 3.3 overs.
Afghanistans fairy tale journey started to turn into a nightmare when skipper Nowroz Mangal (5) was dismissed by caught by Gautam Gambhir to leave the Afghans 29-3 after Ravindra Jadeja struck.
With three early wickets Afghanistan could have quite easily collapsed in a similar fashion to Ireland last night but Noor Ali played a composed innings partnered by Asghar Stanikzai to build a valuable partnership of 68.
During the middle overs of their innings the pair prospered against the Indian slow bowlers with Asghar Stanikzai in particular very effective smashing three sixes as their 4th wicket partnership started to turn into an important
Noor Ali reached his half century in the 16th over but his dismissal by Nehra two balls later was the break through India needed as Afghanistan lost 5 wickets in the space of 21 as the 2007 world champions regained the initiative.
The loss of Asghar Stanikzai (30), Mohammad Nabi (0), Samiullah Shenwari (7) and Hamid Hassan (6) will have been disappointing for the Afghans, with the exception of Stanikzai the batsman all failed to build on the excellent innings by Noor Ali to leave India very confident of chasing down the target.

Jason Terry promises backups will deliver
|Posted by shawn cassidy on November 6, 2012 at 7:00 AM
I think what Terry needs is freedom. I think he works best off a leash. Kind of like Rondo. I think Terry is trying to fit in, and that's great, but he needs to be himself,and I'm not sure he's been given the chance to. Here's a clip of Terry at his best, and some comments from yesterday's practice.
"Oh, that's frustrating," he said. "But again, I take that squarely upon my shoulders, and this is a new week. I'm looking to go this week and hopefully we can get three consecutive games of outscoring [the opponent's] bench, and we'll see what happens. But that's the goal, and we try to take it game-by-game, but hopefully we'll take it week-by-week, and last week was a disappointing one for us, but this is another opportunity and that's the beauty of it."
"No question, we thought it would be a lot smoother, but, again, it's not as easy as you think a lot of the time," said Terry. "It's good. It's good that we're going through it, and what we're going to do is look back upon this journey and say that we had to go through something. This is definitely challenging. I know for me, myself, I got higher expectations for my performance, but I'll get there."
"I just think everyone is starting to figure out that, to be a good team, you have to actually work at it," said Rivers. "And it's hard work. You just don't show up because you have good names on a piece of paper and become good. You have to work at it, and you have to work hard at it. And it's exhausting."
"Again, it's a work in progress," said Terry. "I'm going to stay optimistic. I'm a scorer. I'm going to figure it out. Believe me when I tell you, I'm going to continue to shoot the ball and I'm going to take advantage of every opportunity."

A Rash Decision
My husband made me swear that I wouldnt go to a tanning salon before our wedding. But I wanted to have a nice glow, so I bought a package of tanning appointments. I went a few times, and he didnt notice that I was getting progressively more bronzed. Then five days before the wedding, I squeezed in another trip to the salon. Unfortunately, I stayed in the tanning bed for too long and turned cherry red. So when I came home, it was obvious what Id done. I lied and told him Id only gone once, but he was still angry. Any normal person would never go back after that. But after a couple of days, my color had faded, so I booked one last appointment. I ended up with a rash. Of course, I blamed it on that first tanning session. Olivia, 31
Two-and-a-Half Men
My fiancé thinks Im so sweet and innocent, but he doesnt know I have a wild past. In college, Id hook up with different guys every weeka couple of times, Id even see two guys in the same night. And thats not all: During our first few months of dating, I was seeing my ex-boyfriend on the sly at the same time. Mary, 27
The Bridal Wars
When it came time for me and my husband to create the guest list for our wedding, his little sister handed us the names of about 20 girls, most of whom we didnt know. I threw a fit and told my guy she had to cut some people. She, however, pulled the little sister card and got all her friends secured on the list despite my protests. My husband told me to just let it go. I still had the last laugh, thoughI secretly threw away the invitations for all her friends. When she began questioning why her friends never received them, I told her they must have gotten lost in the mail. My guy suspects I had something to do with it, but Ill never confess to him. Irene, 26
Miami Vice
Ive been dating my fiancé since high school, and he knows everything about me. Well...almost everything. A few years ago, during a trip to Miami with a group of friends, I had too much to drink and ended up grinding with a random guy at a club and making out with him. My friends had to pry me away and practically carry me back to the hotel room. Veronica, 27
Till Dress Do Us Part
After months of stressful wedding planning, I thought I was going to come to blows with my future mother-in-law. I didnt want my fiancé to know that I couldnt stand her, so I pretended everything was fine. Meanwhile, I devised a sneaky way to take out my aggression. She asked me to look at her choices for mother-of-the-groom dresses, some of which were more expensive and fancier than my wedding gown. She told me I could make the final decision, so I picked the ugliest one of the bunchit was a hideous banana yellow and looked like a tacky prom dress. Nora, 27

Ehline Law – Cruise Lawyers
As the evening news exposes cruise lines more and more, it is being revealed that hundreds, and even thousand of passengers suffer various types of injuries on luxury liner cruises each year. In addition to losing their luggage, more severe injuries like being raped by a cruise ship employee, or slipping, tripping and falling would be easy cases to settle if they took place in Miami, Florida, or Los Angeles, California. When these travelers arrive home, they typically convalesce, and unknowingly sleep on their rights. After several months or more pass, some victims attempt to hire unqualified counsel, and soon discover that there are very few, true "cruise ship accident attorneys".
Some attorneys think that most cruise ship cases must be filed in Florida federal court, which is not always the case, or that they have a year or more to file a notification claim, which is also incorrect. Local, inexperienced lawyers are known to blow the claims provisions of the carriage license altogether, or to commit some other form of legal malpractice, destroying the rights of the victims to sue in court.
You see, the passage contract, international law and treaties severely restrict the rights of passengers, like where they can sue, that they would take for granted as citizens of the United States. For example, some lawyers may attempt to file your case in Miami, Florida, and get the case rejected by the court clerk for improper jurisdiction and venue. Often times this places your right to sue in jeopardy due to passage of time. Our trial lawyers are intimately familiar with that fact that cruise ship accidents claims are part of the law of the sea that exclusively involves cruise ships.
We have victoriously represented individuals from states like Georgia, Ohio and Florida who have been been sexually assaulted, had weight stacks fall on them while working out in the gym due to the ship violently rocking, or slipped and suffered head injuries where wet areas meet dry areas with slick decks. Many of our clients require life long counseling, surgery, and time off work. Many of our clients had taken a cruise for their very first time and had no idea of all the problems that could pop up. Some were injured on port tenders, or tourist shore excursions, and falsely assumed that they had to sue the defendants in their home countries. All of them needed help from an expert.
Michael P. Ehline, has been recognized with numerous awards, and is also a former "Cruise Ship Attorney of the Year". He has filed cases in federal court, as well as California state court, and is a licensed, high profile attorney. When you hire us, Ehline and his staff of assistants will be leading at the helm. We will be the captain of your case in the fight against the big, multi-national corporations, and their high paid legal sharks. Ehline Law is the great equalizer for cruise victims. In fact, in every case that we have filed, we have gotten a payout to our clients.
Even though much of the general admiralty maritime law generally applies to cruise ship related matters, there are many special laws that apply only to cruise ships claims. For instance, cruise lines sometimes insert special provisions into their passenger boarding passes that are legally allowed under U.S. laws. This means that prosecuting these types of actions is an arduous and more complex process than an ordinary negligence case. Other rules may apply if the tragedy or injuries were sustained in a location such as California territorial waters, or U.S. coastal waters.
Ehline Law is leading the fight against existing laws that favor the cruise ship companies. Our lead attorney, Michael Ehline was voted Cruise Ship Attorney of the Year, and also lobbies congress, along with the International Cruise Victims (ICV), to strengthen the "Passenger's Bill of Rights". But in the meantime, you have to jump through hoops to get a case like this off the ground, and we have the technical expertise to make it happen. For example, most attorneys don't even know that when on a cruise, you are under the law of the foreign flag the ship is sailing under, not United States laws. Thus substantially effects your legal rights, duties and obligations.
So if the standard flying on the vessel is Norway, this indicates that the your legal rights are probably primarily governed under Norwegian law(s). If the vessel is flying a Bahamanian flag, you are in the Bahamas with the exception of the treaty, or flag is Panamanian, you are in Panama. If the flag is Bahamanian, you are in the Bahamas. There are very few exceptions to this rule, such as a convention, or if the vessel is sailing in state or federal U.S. waters at the time of the disaster. On a more positive note, in California State Court, and other jurisdictions, cruise lines are common carriers, with a non delegable duty to keep their passengers safe. This means that We are ready assist both American, and international cruise victims and have a proven track record for doing just that. We really do "make it happen" Let us be the champion in your corner.
Los Angeles Cruise Ship Lawsuits
Ehline Law Firm PC offers experienced cruise ship claims lawyers to injury victims all across the world. Michael P. Ehline, Esq., is a prominent, recognized legal advocate (Read CNN Article), and he also works hand in hand with Miami cruise ship lawyers for cases needing to be filed there. Our local law firm is experienced in tour boat passenger claims against, Carnival, Royal Caribbean and Canaveral cruise liner injuries and others.
As California cruise ship injuries claims attorneys, we handle Princess Cruise Liner cases in Los Angeles and San Pedro Courts, because claims against this entity must be made in these jurisdictions under the passage contract. [1. Passage Contract-Princess Cruises]
(B) Forum and Jurisdiction for Legal Action:
(i) Claims for Injury, Illness or Death: All claims involving Emotional harm, bodily injury, illness to or death of any Passenger whatsoever arising out of or relating to this Passage Contract or Your Cruise shall be litigated before a court of competent jurisdiction located in the County of Los Angeles, California, U.S.A., to the exclusion of the courts of any other country, state, city, municipality, county or locale. You consent to jurisdiction and waive any objection that may be available to any such action being brought in such courts. (Read more here.)
Unfortunately, many cruise ship vacations are not always a smooth sailing affair, and may depart from Miami and arrive in California. Shipboard calamities involving injuries at sea can ruin your vacation, and result in grievous bodily harm or worse, the graveyard.
A wreck or mishap at sea can result in the tragic loss of loved ones. It could be a man overboard, or a rape and murder.
You, yourself, may have suffered an infectious disease on a cruise ship. Unsuspecting passenger victims like you are left out at sea without a paddle unless you retain experienced advocates to help recover damages for your bodily harm. You may have been the victim of a stomach virus like norovirus, Norwalk-like viruses or even guinea worm disease from when you were a passenger in the Western Caribbean, for example.
These are some of the other afflictions that can occur aboard ship:
- Sickness from food poisoning or negligence in exposing passengers to communicable diseases.
- Sexual assault or rape by a crewmember or passenger.
- Negligent medical care, medical malpractice or inadequate medical personnel
- Accidental death, wrongful death and missing passengers
- Injuries due to collisions at sea, in port or due to defective equipment
- Personal injuries including slip and fall accidents or swimming drowning.
Getting the Right Legal Advice is Mandatory
Without proper legal advice, liability may be hard to establish against the corporation and/or crew–thus pouring salt water in a tort victim's wounds. Many horrible things happen on cruise ships to weary travelers that necessitate legal counsel. Tragedies on the high seas are all things seen a lot in the news lately, but little is known about the legal inner working of these types of cases. The best rated attorneys, such as Ehline should be able to help you navigate your maritime case.
If you or a loved one departed from a California port on a cruise ship vacation and were injured, look no further. We help victims who reside in Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego, as well as tourists from around the world.
The result of a wrongful injury case from a cruise ship accident will depend on where the affliction occurred. If the injury occurred more than 3 miles away from the California coastline, maritime law will apply. However, if the devastation actually happened within 3 miles of the California coastline, California State Law will apply. If a wrongful injury has occurred to you or a loved one while on a cruise off the California coast, contact our lawyers today. This is a lot to know right? Well your not alone. Even some heavyweight PI Lawyers don't understand this specialty area of law and shy away from these types of claims.
Death and Other Interesting Facts for Passengers
If someone is involved in a wrongful death while on a cruise ship, the Death on the High Seas Act is applied, and this involves a different set of laws than maritime or even California state laws. If you lost someone close, such as a lover, friend or family member, while they were on board a cruise ship vessel, contact our luxury liner accident lawyers to find out more about how the different laws apply and how you can receive compensation for your loss.
Please note, that cruise ship catastrophes must be acted upon quickly due to statute of limitation rules that limit the time period in which one can file a wrongful injury or death lawsuit. If you or a loved one have been wrongfully injured while on a cruise, you may be entitled to monetary compensation for your injuries such as your pain and suffering as well as all your medical expenses.
How Do I Get Money For My L.A. Venue Cruise Ship Claim?
You may also need to get money for missed work, or work limitations and retraining, or even a lifetime caretaker. This is all big bucks. Ehine Law Firm PC takes steps to be your rainmaker. From start to finish, we will lead your case, hire the right investigators and experts as necessary, and provide you with the confidence and security any wounded person would need during your convalescence and attempt at rebuilding yourself, mentally and physically.
If you were searching for local cruise ship accident lawyers, look no further. Passenger ship injuries almost always require the help of and expert in admiralty, maritime law and understanding of treatises when your are seriously injured aboard their sea vessels.
Read the Passage Contract and Get a Lawyer
The big multi-national corporations that own the ships are not your friend, and they are allowed to use passenger tickets to limit the normal two or three year statute of limitations and other significant rights. For example, they are allowed to use a forum selection clause making the port of departure the only legal venue for an injury claim to be litigated. Most of the major ocean liners are based in Los Angeles, California, designate Los Angeles, California, as the legal venue where a cruise line may be sued.
This means that if a passenger sues a shipping line somewhere else, in a far off jurisdiction like Florida for example, and ignores the forum selection clause, the law suit will typically be dismissed. If that happens, and the one year statute has already expired, the passenger will be left with no legal recovery against the cruise line at all! If you have suffered a misfortune on any kind of cruise ship vessel, don't delay -contact us right now! Our people are not just professionals, we are movers and shakers. We will move immediately to protect your legal interests! Call the Ehline Law Firm PC 24 hour hotline for cruise ship claims now at 888-400-9721.

mission report filed here on the RL boards as follows:
As we all know, Star Wars Reads Day turned out to be HUGE and requests came flying in from everywhere.
Obviously, there are not enough of us to go around and many Bases (I am certain) tried to accomodate as many requests as possible. Here in Illinois, we also had dozens of events throughout the State. I was able to attend two events.
The first one was in Braidwood IL, a rural community south of Chicago. Though small, those who attended were very enthusiastic. All of the participating members in this photo belong to Nar Shaddaa Base - regardless of the costume they are wearing.
This event was a true mingling of the groups as the 4 costumed people in attendance were all members of NSB and the Midwest Garrison. In addition, I represented both The Jedi Assembly AND the R2 Builders in addition to NSB and the MWG....
so we had 4 groups represented.
For our efforts at Braidwood, the Library sent a $100.00 check to Make A Wish AND we had a collection bucket out for our Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk that comes up on October 14th and $15.00 was deposited in our collection bucket.
Braidwood Library:
After the Braidwood event, we all hopped into our "transports" and headed to Plainfield IL for the second event. We were joined at Plainfield by two more members of NSB and Darth Vader was handled by a local man with a very nice Vader costume...but he was not a member of the 501st.
This event was crazy busy as the crowd was estimated at over 400 people throughout the 2 hour event.
More photos:
Participants at both events:
Vadersblade - Captain Rex
Zombie Bunny - Princess Leia
Schph Gochi - Jedi
Artoo Gochi - Astromech
At Braidwood:
Kurodor - TK - Kurodor was also at Plainfield but not suited up.
At Plainfield:
Woulff - TK
Janqui - Jedi
Huge thanks to all of the Rebels who came out on Saturday...
as noted...
All members at both events were Nar Shaddaa Base members...

Mission Report filed:
We have been at it for months....fundraising for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. Team members for the "501st Legion and Rebel Legion United" Team have been pestering their friends, families and co-workers. We have done events and asked that the donation for our appearance go to our MSABC Walk.
Today we walked! Our team ended up in 3rd place for total donations for the Fox Valley Illinois MSABC walk. We raised $4,285.00 for breast cancer research.
Rain and thunderstorms were in the forecast so activities were moved inside the Chicago Premium Outlet Mall's protective cover. Where it is still an outdoor mall, the inner walkways do have a cover. Normally, all activities are held outside in the parking lot....last year it rained also...and we all got very wet.
Many thanks to all of our participants....

There are times when even the most rebellious Rebels need to fall to the dark side...
Such was the case Saturday as Woulf, Kurodor, I donned our Imperial best to present Katie (the little girl who got bullied at school for being female and liking Star Wars) with her dream of her own TK armor.
Kudos to Woulf - Steve Mamman for being part of the team that built Katie's armor...he and 4 other members of the MWG cut and assembled Katie's armor with donations of parts and money from the First Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment.
you guys did an AWESOME job!

A little late on posting some of these, but better late than never!
October 6, 2012 I found myself with 3 troops in the Champaign, IL area! I was the only Rebel, but I did Nar Shaddaa base Proud!
First up was the Buddy Walk for Downs Syndrome!
Followed by Star Wars Reads day at Barnes and Noble!
Taking a time out from fighting to read a good book!
Even the Death Star has a Starbucks!
Finally we had a Cancer Charity walk to attend. We got to lead the memorial lap for a young trooper who sadly passed away from this terrible disease. Was great to be there with his friends and family

On October 28, 2012, the MWG and I went to Miller Park Zoo in Bloomington, IL for their Halloween Spooktacular!
I found myself with some reinforcements from these young Padawans! This will even the odds!
Most recently, we had a small troop on November 3, 2012 at a birthday party for a 7 year old. His parents were kind enough to make a donation to St. Jude's in our name just for coming out!
That's it for now from my adventures in Central, IL! Stay tuned for next weekends pics from Chi-TAG in Chicago and more from the middle of a cornfield!

NSB was out in force (no pun intended) yesterday at Brookfield Zoo to trim the Midwest Garrison/Nar Shaddaa Base tree...
Many thanks to all the Rebels who came out on Sunday:
Samantha - Queen of the Universe
Luke - Rebel
Ashley - Ewok 55
Steve - ID3052
Dave - Kurodor
Me - Schph Gochi
Woulff was there on Saturday with his youngling too...
The weather was beautiful...
The guy at the gate who took my ticket saw my costume...and said...
"Oh, the motorcycle riders have arrived"
Does an RFT Costume REALLY look like something a "bikder" would wear?

November 15th, 2012
Family Reading Night
Greenman Elementary School.
Aurora, IL
The school put on a space/Sci Fi themed event to try and encourage their students and children from the community to get into reading. We were asked to interact with the children and take photos. The school was extremely happy to have us and treated us great with water, pop, and pizza. We were given our own classroom on the 2nd floor away from the activities to change and store our tubs in. Once changed we were led downstairs and out into the main group of fans. Our contact did an excellent job of reigning in the masses of children and parents and had a line form up so the children could get their picture taken with us. The school also had a photographer taking shots of all the children as well as the parents. Once the event was over we went back to our classroom and suited down. It was a nice little troop that went very smoothly. They have told me they will definitely be looking for us in future events for the school.
For an added bonus, our contact had put out a donation jar for us being there, and I was just told that $100.78 was collected. We selected the Red Cross as the charity, so it will be donated in the name of MWG and NSB.
4 troopers for 1.5 hrs each
$100.78 donation to The Red Cross
Attendees: All 4 of us are RL NSB members, some of us being under-cover of imperial armor

Misson Report filed as follows:
Members of Nar Shaddaa Base representing:
Outlaw Squadron
Renegade Squad
Ranger Squad
My sincere thanks to all who came out to this event to raise funds for Children's Treasure Chest for Pediatric Oncology. This is the 9th year in a row that Nar Shaddaa Base and the Midwest Garrison have teamed up and done this event and it has become a favorite for many of us.
The organizers of Toy Con hold 4 toy shows per year, but this last toy show of the season is for charity. Anyone bringing a toy gets into the show free and all toys collected are then packed up in a u-haul and sent off to the Children's Treasure Chest facility in Orland Park where they are then distributed to not only local hospitals but hospitals across the country. When the toys reach the hospital they are given to children undergoing many types of treatments. The intent is to take the child's mind off his treatments and give them something to enjoy.
We as a group are invited out to take photos with people at the show for a donation. Donation dollars are then used for gift cards for older kids.

And...for me...there was a special personal moment.
Fellow members of NSB chipped in to purchase a little something I had my eye on....I had posted it as "something to ask Santa for" in case one of our members would want it for their personal collection...it ended up in my hands...
dreams do come true...
Which helmet do I wear....
no contest!
My most sincere thanks to all who kicked in to purchase this remarkable helmet for me.....and I assure you...it is remarkable.
I am going to be the custodian of this helmet but it truly belongs to all here at Nar Shaddaa Base....
know that any time there is an exhibit of Rebel pieces like Discovery World and the Joliet Library SW Day...this helmet will be there.
Also, anyone who wishes to borrow it to wear at an event with their Pilot costume or Farmboy Luke....please lmk and I will bring it along.
If there is one thing I have begun to learn about collectibles is that they are to be seen and enjoyed...
That is why I am working on selling off some of my SW collection that sits in tubs doing nothing. If those collections of action figures don't sell...then they will be donated for events where prizes are needed....
hopefully to be enjoyed by someone...
Again...my sincere thanks...
not only is this helmet a salute to SW...but the base unit is a Vietnam era flight helmet and the Vietnam War was my generation's war....my brother in law died there...so...this helmet has a lot of meaning for me.
My thanks again...
here is a little pictorial of years past....
As you can see...we have done this since 2004 (thanks to Kathy for the 2004 photo!) and next year will mark our 10th Anniversary of doing this event every year...we hope to do something special next year.

And...immediatly following the Toy Con toy drive...2 members of NSB hoped transport and flew to Aurora where we entertained a group of younglings celebrating Conner's 6th birthday. We enjoyed some good ole fashioned bowling ally cuisine, took photos with the children and parents alike, sang "Happy Birthday" to the child of honor as a cake with a striking resemblance to R2-D2 was unveiled. After this we suited down and were given thanks by the parents and also the news that a donation will be made to Make A Wish!

In the wake of yesterday's "Twitter townhall," The Boston Globe put together an interesting infographic comparing Twitter users' #askObama questions with the past two weeks of questions at White House press briefings and gaggles. At his blog, Matthew Yglesias pulled out the most striking discrepancy: while a full 24 percent of reporters' questions focused on negotiations with Congress, only 2 percent of the questions in the Globe's Twitter sample did so. The upshot, Yglesias writes, is that "nobody cares about the press corps' process questions":
Ordinary people don't care about politics all that much. But when they do decide to pay attention to politics, it's because they're worried about jobs or the environment or energy prices or taxes or something. It's never because they're wondering how the president reacted to Steny Hoyer's remarks about Eric Cantor's characterization of the Treasury secretary's statement about the debt ceiling.
Very true! But I want to focus on something else the Globe graphic showed: over the last two weeks, reporters at those White House press briefings asked zero questions about education (including student loans and college tuition) and zero about housing.
That echoes what I found last week when I looked at reporters' questions at formal press conferences during Obama's presidency: those topics, which are central to the economic experience of most American households, are simply not on the radar of the White House press corps.
If you check out the Globe's graphic, you'll see that housing and education weren't highly represented in their sample of 13,000 #askObama tweets, either. But during the townhall itself, moderator Jack Dorsey said that 10 percent of the incoming questions dealt with education, and another 6 percent with housing. Given the diversity of topics represented in the questions, and the fact that neither of those subjects are driving current news events, that's a pretty good indication of interest. Two questions were actually asked about each of the topics, and Obama gave answers that were, if not exactly revelatory, fairly substantial. (He also brought up the housing crisis unprompted, in reply to a question about failures his administration had made in responding to the recession.)
Afterward, Washington Post reporters Peter Wallstein and Cecilia Kang noted how unusual the comments on housing were, writing:
President Obama made a rare admission of a policy misstep Wednesday, acknowledging that his administration failed to provide enough support to struggling homeowners and recognize the scope of the nation's housing crisis.
Obama has not often discussed the housing crisis with much of his time in Washington and on the campaign trail focused on job creation and deficit reduction.
To restate second graf that from a press-critic's perspective, White House reporters have allowed Obama to focus his time on those subjects (which are, to be sure, newsworthy), and on the process questions that flow from them.
One outlet that has stayed focused on the housing crisis is ProPublica, which put out an #askObama question of its own, wondering if, in light of the government's support for big banks, the president thought his administration had done enough for homeowners. The ProPublica team followed that up with a tweet linking to its coverage of the government's mortgage modification program, which is supposed to help stem foreclosures by giving loan servicers incentives to work with underwater homeowners. That page opens with this chart, showing that cancelled trial modifications (the red bar) far outnumber permanent modifications (the green bar):
There are obvious implications there for the individual homeowners seeking relief. But this problem probably isn't distinct from the country's broader macroeconomic and fiscal challenges. Mike Konczal, an economist at the liberal Roosevelt Institute, has argued that to the extent that elevated unemployment is "structural," underwater mortgages are partly to blame; economists at the International Monetary Fund
came to a similar conclusion last year. If that's true, a more effective response here would have put more people in jobs—and that, in turn, would have taken some pressure off state and federal budgets. And maybe it still could.
