Council Approves Living Wage Amount and 2014-15 Council Calendar/Workplan
Friday, 02 May 2014 15:21
By 12th Moon,
Council President
Council held our monthly meeting on Tuesday, April 8 in The Classrooms @ GreenStar with ten of our thirteen members, five staff members, two member-owners, and a very sweet and cute three-month-old present. Our number on Council has been reduced to thirteen after Colin Meeks, one of two staff members on Council, resigned for personal reasons. Many thanks for your contributions while on Council, Colin; we will miss your input.
During our announcements period we learned that Ithaca is a very busy place. On Thursday, April 10, as an example, Council held a Member Forum in the West-End store meeting room, while GreenStar Community Projects held their eighth networking dinner/meeting — this one focused on local food business entrepreneurs, and Building Bridges hosted a presentation by two organizers from Virginia Tech who explained the college's Civic Agriculture and Food Systems minor program. Our Spring Membership Meeting was also set to be held on Friday, April 25.
General Manager (GM) Brandon Kane brought the first item of business, the monthly GM Report. Brandon reported that staff was all moved into the new Central Kitchen and Bakery, working out the kinks and stretching out into a beautiful new space, and would soon be finalizing catering offerings and The Space @ GreenStar rental specifics. He also told us to expect to see a member-owner survey offered on our website and at both stores during May. Participants can win one of three $150 gift certificates. He also said that a reusable bag program called Bring Your Own Bag, Use It For Good would begin at both stores in April. This program promotes the use of reusable shopping bags, boxes, or other containers. Those who reuse a bag at the register are offered a wooden token worth a five-cent donation to one of three local non-profits. Brandon expressed much appreciation to all staff for both the group effort to move into the new kitchen and their continued involvement in the Open Book Management weekly meetings and trainings.

Council Extends West-End Lease; Begins General Manager Evaluation Process
Thursday, 03 April 2014 18:47
By 12th Moon,
Council President
Council held its monthly meeting on Tuesday, March 11 in the Classrooms @ GreenStar, with twelve of fourteen Council Members, five employees, and one member-owner present. Council has had a full contingent of fifteen members until recently, when Angela Zhang resigned for personal reasons. We will miss her contributions to Council, but as you will read later she has applied for a Member-at-Large seat on our Finance Committee, where she has served for the last two years.
After agenda review and announcements we received the General Manager's monthly report from our GM, Brandon Kane. Brandon informed us of the schedule for the transition to the new central kitchen facility. We have received the Certificate of Occupancy for the building, and staff will be training on new equipment, then moving into the new space very soon. We expect that obtaining the needed licensing for the Community Room/Space @ GreenStar will take a few more weeks. By May we should be able to rent the Space out for events. Brandon also reported that the work being done by staff doesn't stop there, as plans are being made for renovating the Classrooms and then reconfiguring the Dewitt Mall store and the Deli/former classroom area of the West-End store.
Brandon updated us on the Open Book Management implementation progress. He reported that staff members across departments are engaged in the necessary financial training, and the weekly meetings have fostered a positive understanding of the relationship between departments and of their labor and financial differences. The report also showed the continuing success of the FLOWER program and the well-received U-Pick 10% Off member appreciation day.
We next received the GM's B.1 4th Quarter and Year-End 2013 Financial report. We accepted the report as being in compliance with policy. The report showed that GreenStar is healthy and stable even with all of the renovations, kitchen design, and furnishing expenses. We ended 2013 with gross sales of $18.25 million. Job well done, staff.

Council Approves Joining Business Coalition of Gas-Free Seneca; Welcomes Member at Large
Friday, 28 February 2014 15:55
By 12th Moon,
Council President
Council met Tuesday, Feb. 11 at 6:30 pm in the Classrooms @ GreenStar for our monthly meeting. After announcements and amending the agenda to include an application for a Member-at-Large seat on one of our committees, we received the monthly General Manager's (GM) report.
Our GM, Brandon Kane, reported that the renovated Space @ GreenStar and the Central Kitchen are on schedule for a mid-March move-in. The Space is currently housing the Winter Farmers Market on Saturdays from 11 to 2, and visitors have been very appreciative of the renovations. We also learned that the National Cooperative Bank closed on a loan to GreenStar and that those funds are now available to us for the renovation projects; further, the process for acquiring all of the licenses and permits for being able to rent out The Space is underway but likely to take some weeks.
Brandon also told us that the placement of How Good product-rating tags at the West-End store is about 25 percent complete, delayed by a busy beginning of the year, and that the change to a U-Pick 10% Off day has made everyone happy and less stressed on the tenth of each month (though I do miss the themed costumes of the staff).
Our next agenda item, which was approved, was a change to our Annual Council Calendar to move all four yearly B.1 quarterly and year-end financial reports back a month. The financial reports prepared for Council have become more detailed and are often difficult to prepare on time for the agenda packet. For the 4th Quarter and Year-End 2013 financial reports, we will have the reports go to our Finance Committee first and then come to Council for a vote, rather than having Council refer the reports to committee and receive them back the following month.

The New York Islanders have acquired Tim Thomas from the Boston Bruins in exchange for a conditional second-round draft pick in either 2014 or 2015.
TSN's Bob McKenzie notes the Bruins will only receive the pick if Thomas reports to the Isles, or if they trade his rights.
Thomas, 38, has not played this year after taking a sabbatical from hockey to "reconnect with friends, family and faith" in early June.
The former Conn Smythe and Vezina winner said he planned on returning for the 2013-14 season, but that he only wanted to play for Boston.
Prior to the trade, Boston had been stuck with Thomas' cap hit, though it did receive some financial relief by suspending him, meaning the Bruins didn't have to pay his salary.
Thomas will also play a role in New York's financials as well.
"We have acquired an asset for our organization," Isles GM Garth Snow said of the trade. "This acquisition allows us flexibility with our roster moving forward."
New York, currently operating with the NHL's smallest payroll (just over $49 million), already has two goalies under contract — Rick DiPietro ($4.5 million cap hit until 2021) and Evgeni Nabokov, who carries at $2.75 million cap hit this season.
Thomas has one year remaining on the four-year, $20 million deal (average annual cap hit of $5 million) he signed in 2009.
Here's more, from Newsday's Arthur Staple:
Move is cap-related — #Isles needed to be over the floor by tomorrow, needed insurance against not being cap compliant the entire season.
— Arthur Staple (@StapeNewsday) February 7, 2013
With the NHL's salary cap floor at $44 million, bringing Thomas' salary on board could allow the Islanders to move other players (via trade, perhaps) and still clear the floor.
Earlier today, defenseman Lubomir Visnovsky was added to the active roster, but has repeatedly tried to block his move to the Islanders.
Over the weekend, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun passed along a rumor that the Isles would be willing to part with defenseman Mark Streit — should they fall out of playoff contention.
Visnovsky and Streit are both impending UFAs with a combined cap hit of $9.7 million.
— McKenzie also notes the Isles can "toll" Thomas' contract to next year (something the Bruins had the option of doing), or they can let it expire at the end of the year.
— Staple reports the Islanders are unlikely to toll the contract, as they want financial flexibility going into the offseason.

LONDON (AP) - A representative for actor Michael Douglas now says the actor doesn't blame his throat cancer on oral sex.
RELATED: Most expensive celeb engagement rings
The Guardian newspaper published an interview Monday saying that Douglas attributed his illness to the HPV virus from oral sex. When asked about his cancer, Douglas said "without wanting to get too specific, this particular cancer is caused by HPV (human papillomavirus), which actually comes from cunnilingus."
RELATED: Most awkward people on the red carpet
But spokesman Allen Burry said later that Douglas never said that was the cause of his cancer. He said Douglas was discussing what causes oral cancer during the interview.

Homage of such sweet sorrow
LES MISERABLES Claude Lelouch (18); Director Claude Lelouch has paid a Christmas card tribute to Hugo's epic novel. By Adam Mars-Jones
Thursday 01 February 1996
Lelouch's recasting of Hugo sounds at first almost post-modern: scenes from the original are cut into the story of the Fortin family over two generations, which provides variations on Hugo's themes. It turns out, though, that Lelouch regards Les Miserables as a sort of inventory of character types that recur down the years. Anyone who is both hospitable and inhospitable, for instance, is a "Thenardier", any orphan at such a person's mercy is a "Cosette". Jean-Paul Belmondo plays Jean Valjean in the dramatised excerpts from the novel, and also Henri Fortin, wrongly imprisoned, like Valjean, except that his incarceration begins in 1900. But Belmondo's major role in the film is as Fortin's son, also called Henri, who though illiterate falls in love with Hugo's novel. He's always asking people to read it to him, and comes to identify with its hero. He interprets all his experiences in that light. Lelouch makes a half- hearted attempt to link Fortin junior with the cinema - the first thing we're told about him is that he is as old as the cinematograph (born in 1895) and he is forever watching films, but they always turn out to be earlier versions of Les Miserables.
The cragginess of late middle-age doesn't detract from Belmondo's charisma, but our first sight of him in Les Miserables makes him look like an actor out of his depth. Lelouch starts the film at a moment of crisis in Hugo's story, when Valjean secedes definitively to the cause of virtue, except that he doesn't give us any of the context. All we see is Belmondo trying to cry, awash with glycerine, shouting every now and then for a little chimney sweep to come back and forgive him. Lelouch holds the shot, almost cruelly, for a long time. For the rest of the film, Belmondo can't be said to give nuanced portraits of three different people (the main differences between the characters are of hair colouring and style), but after an inert start he is never again less than dynamic.
Lelouch's visual style, ever since A Man and a Woman, has been notorious for prettiness. In Les Miserables he makes intermittent attempts to throw off his insipid reputation, and with some success. Watching his recreation of the Normandy landings, you could almost think you had the makings of an action director, if it wasn't for the insufferable romanticism of the music. Often in the film, Lelouch seems to be apologising with a sweet sound for a harsh image - not setting up an irony but trying to take away the nasty taste of reality. Perversely, Lelouch commissioned music to be ready before shooting began, using no fewer than five composers (notably Francis Lai and Michel Legrand). So we can't pretend that the anaemic soundtrack represents a last-minute failure of nerve: compromise is integral to Lelouch's vision.
In any case, his cinematic instincts remain lyrical, and whenever the story calls for a big moment he produces a lyrical one, whether it fits or not. When Fortin senior is put in "the cage", literally a cage, only tall enough for him to stand at one point, in dead of winter, the scene looks like a Christmas card for all that, with snow falling slowly and luxuriously. You can almost feel the plump flakes melting on your tongue.
Lelouch conveys the excitement of the Liberation from the perspective of the girls in a convent school, who have been having a cushy time of it, frankly, under the protection of a beaming Mother Superior who looks like a refugee from The Sound of Music. The camera tracks down the cloisters, revealing piano after piano in an endless line, each one occupied by an angelic girl hammering out "It's a Long Way to Tipperary". When parachutes start dropping on the school ground, the girls "ooh" and "aah" as if at a fireworks display.
Once in the film the prettiness of Lelouch's imagery does seem to have the required resonance. Andre Ziman (Michel Boujenah), a Jewish lawyer fleeing the Nazis with his wife, is betrayed by the guide who is supposedly leading them to safety in Switzerland. Wounded and separated from his wife, he looks up at the trees and we see what he sees: superimposed frozen branches spinning madly in and out of crisp focus, a rapturous image of despair and letting go.
When Ziman comes to, he has been rescued by a farmer and his wife. These are Lelouch's version of Hugo's Thenardiers, but he takes only the idea of inhospitable hospitality, and explores what is for him a highly uncharacteristic territory, full of moral ambivalence and black humour. At first the couple are intoxicated with their own bravery, and pleased simply to have a break from routine. The farmer jokes, as his wife brings Ziman a tray of good things to eat in the barn where they hide him, that he wouldn't mind being injured if he got a breakfast like that now and then. His wife doesn't quite know where to look. It helps that she's played by the great Annie Girardot, and her husband by Philippe Leotard, who makes the farmer's baffled and slow-growing jealousy rather real.
These Thenardiers live up to their own good intentions for a long time. Even when Ziman asks the farmer to go to Geneva and collect money from there, greed isn't a factor in his going. But when Ziman gives his hosts the money, and says he wants them to have the same sum every month, things begin to change. It isn't even that they spend much of the money - it sits there in a pile, in the ice-box of their fridge. Then when the farmer's wife makes a touchingly desperate pass at Ziman, and their rapport is spoiled, the money starts to matter after all. What if they persuaded Ziman to take out all his money? What if they told him that Hitler is in London? That he's invaded America? That Ziman may be the last Jew on earth?
Les Miserables is a long film, at nearly three hours. If Lelouch had only had the confidence to turn this section of his film into a self-contained chamber drama, he would have offered audiences a much more intense experience. He would also have found an unusual way of addressing the French bad conscience about the Occupation, through the story of these characters who are so slow to exploit the power of their situation, but who are unable in the end to be better than they are. The story of Ziman and the Thenardiers is worthy of a greater Claude than Lelouch, worthy of Chabrol.

ProsFlexible scheduling and the ability to work from home
Decent benefits, including generous personal holidays and vacation time
Intelligent, hard-working colleagues who really care about the work they do and who want to be successfulConsConstant reorganizations throw teams and divisions into turmoil every 6-12 months, impacting productivity.
The constant threat of layoffs has driven morale to an all-time low. The annual performance evaluation process is archaic and only forces talented people out of the company. Due to the bell-curve like system, managers are forced to rate a certain percentage of their teams as low performers, even if those people don't deserve that ranking. Now many of those people are losing their jobs. The executives in charge should be subject to the same unfair rating scale as the rank and file.
Salary increases are nonexistent. Only the top performers can quality for annual bonuses, and the pool of top performers shrinks every year because the rating system is flawed, so the bonus remains out of reach for the majority of people, despite successfully taking on more and more responsibility.
There is no opportunity or incentive for external training or continuing education to develop new skills, unless it comes out of your own pocket. Internal training and development consists of webinars, videos, presentations and electronic books.
IBM is late to the game in many new technologies, including Cloud, and this is evident by the consistent loss of revenue and lucrative contracts to new competitors like Amazon. This once innovative company no longer knows what it wants to be and suffers from an identity crisis--ask most people what IBM does, and they simply don't know. Until IBM has a clear plan for the future that involves more than reshuffling employees and changing the names of its business units, its long-term survival is in jeopardy.Advice to ManagementAdviceIBM's most valuable asset is its people. They are smart, driven, hard-working and want this company to succeed. Many of us are also shareholders. But until you recognize this and treat employees with respect, rewarding them for their service instead of trying to appease the board of directors and major stockholders, the company will continue to bleed money and talent.

I'M IN LOVE WITH BOMAYE - Gifty Finally Falls
After weeks of speculation and survival tactics, Gifty is finally down. The queen of gossip as she has come to be known by many finally took a bow from the house leaving behind the four last contenders. She explained at the interview that gossip was a necessary way to pass time when you do not really have much to do. It was perfectly fine as long as it was not malicious.
We got a glimpse of what could be coming our way when Bomaye's mother came to visit. He had told his mother that Gifty certainly was not the one, perhaps they will make better friends than lovers. It was obvious that she was not going to go much further in the competition.
Strange as it may sound, it was Promzy who later broke into tears for reasons that are hard to explain. The two have not been much of friends and when the factionalism happened, they had been on opposite sides of the divide.
Another interesting development was when the king offered Chichi two thousand dollars to go home and be with the people she loves, giving up on the competition. She did not hesitate to refuse and choosing to stay in the competition as it nears its climax. Whiles the reason behind the king's proposal is unclear, it has at least given Chichi the chance to prove her love for the king.
With four maidens left in the house there will probably be no need for nominations anymore. The favorites are still in the house but at this point, if what the king has said to his mother was anything to go by, Favor is likely to be the next casualty. The king has pointed to her intellectual weakness as making him feel superior and he does not believe that a good relationship will thrive on that.
Nevertheless, she seemed to have raised her game as far as the competition goes, spending quality time with the king and going as far as discussing children that they could have and how they will live.
Chichi is also expected to pull a surprise with her Nigerian votes. In a nutshell the competition just got more serious. Less maidens, harder choices to make on the part of the king. The coming week will probably be the most interesting week yet.

Child star is action hero in 'Kung Fu Kids'
By BOY VILLASANTA and REYMA BUAN-DEVEZA
Child actor Jairus Aquino is living many a Pinoy boy's dream: playing a high-kicking, speed-punching action hero.
But being one of the child heroes on ABS-CBN's newest kiddie series Kung Fu Kids," is not just fun and games.
Jairus told abs-cbnNEWS.com that the martial arts sequences could be quite physically demanding.
Medyo mahirap po kapag mayroon pong fight scenes (Its quite difficult, when Im doing the fight scenes)."
Jairus shared that one of his preparations for the series is to learn martial arts, karate in particular.
According to Jairus's mother, Carrie, she's always on the set watching her son train and to keep an eye out for him during the fight scenes.
"Actually he is enjoying because kids love karate, at first of course it's hard because of their young age, but afterwards when they already know what to do, everything turns okey and they are really enjoying it."
Jairus, who stole viewers' hearts as "Jomar" the loyal and lovable sidekick of Super Inggo in the eponymously titled TV series, now takes on the lead role for "Kung Fu Kids."
He plays Lembot, a sickly young boy who is derided by his own father for being a weakling. Lembot learns kung fu to defend his younger sister and himself from bullies, and to measure up to his fathers expectations.
Lembots desire to learn martial arts lead him in the middle of an ancient battle until everyone close to him, his family and friends, are placed in danger.
According to director Malu Sevilla, she auditioned a lot of child stars but Jairus fits the role to a T. We considered the features of the actor to match the character traits of Lembot and Jairus unanimously got the plum role, attested the lady director.
Even his costars were all one in saying Jairus is the best actor among the four other male kids namely Paul Salas, Kristofer Dangculos, Joshua Dionisio and Andre Garcia.
Sevilla didnt find it hard to motivate the children because she knows how to handle child psychology. Kailangan, once in a while, magiging bata ka rin. (It is needed once in a while that you go back to childhood), chuckled Malu.
Kids like them who go to school are coordinated by the production with their respective teachers and school officials, emphasized the lady director, to avoid getting low marks or worse, failing grades.
Nag-a-absent din po ako pero nag-aaral naman po ako. (I absent myself from school but I study my lessons very well), Jairus said.
The Kung Fu Kids are the countrys most talented child stars like Maria Flordelunas Eliza Pineda, Paul Salas, Jane Oineza, Kristoffer Dangculos, Joshua Dionisio and Joseph Andre Garcia.
Kung Fu Kids also stars Sid Lucero, Gerard Pizzaras, Wowie de Guzman, Allen Dizon, Matteo Guidicelli, Erich Gonzales, Kian Kazemi, Cheska Billiones, Jhong Hilario, Arlene Muhlach and Christopher Roxas with the special participation of TV host and Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Season 2 Edition guest-housemate Mariel Rodriguez and talented actress Jodi Sta. Maria-Lacson.
Kung Fu Kids airs nightly on ABS-CBNs Primetime Bida starting this Monday, January 28, 2008.

Is there going to be a triangle between Eliza, Joshua, and Kristofer's characters? I get that vibe from the teasers, and also beause I'm probably thinking about Flor and Boyet on Maria Flordeluna
who is the guy in the beginning of the trailer no shirt facial hair and doing all the martial arts?
i'm super excited to watch this!!...go BENJO and JAZZ!!..:P

BusinessFinanciers mull bid for Man Utd Investors discus possible takeover despite US owner's claims club is not for sale. 02 Mar 2010 16:41 GMT Malcolm Glazer's 2005 leveraged takeover has seen the club's debt rise to $1.1bn [AFP] "A group of high net worth individuals, who support Manchester United, met in London yesterday [Monday]," the Red Knights said in a statement. "This group is supportive of current management, but are looking at the feasibility of putting together a proposal to be put to the Glazer family regarding the ownership of Manchester United." True colours The discussions, which are in their early stages, are being led by Keith Harris, a football deal broker and the chairman of investment bankers Seymour Pierce, and Jim O'Neill, chief economist at Goldman Sachs. The group's statement said they saw the Manchester United Supporters Trust (Must) as the a key to success in their takeover attempts. The United supporters group has stepped up its campaign in recent week to force the Glazers out of Old Trafford, notably by getting fans to wear green and gold - the colours of Newton Heath, the club's original name. Duncan Drasdo, the Must chief executive, said on Tuesday: "Initially the Red Knight Group has effectively set a challenge to Manchester United supporters to demonstrate they wish to see an alternative ownership proposal developed. "In the first instance supporters are being asked to do this simply by joining the free online membership of the Supporters Trust and swelling its ranks to an initial target of at least 100,000 [members]."

Spring 2010 Trend Report: Primal Prints
At the hands of Belgian fashion designer Dries Van Noten, mixed prints and layers of contrasting fabrics somehow make sense when paired with graphic jeweled cuffs and oversized neckpieces. Diane von Furstenberg took a more bohemian approach to the tribal trend for spring—with armfuls of bangles and printed maxi-dresses—while Frida Giannini and Nicolas Ghesquière fell hard for the urban warrior.

'Empowerment room' yields results
Swihart Industries to hire five or six
- Joe Cogliano, DBJ Staff Reporter
At first glance, management gatherings within Swihart Industries Inc. seem more like tactical planning for a military operation than a meeting at a manufacturing firm.
Twice a week, department leaders at the Harrison Township precision machining business get together in a small room — dubbed the "empowerment room" — lined with dry erase boards that contain a jumble of information.
The boards track everything from safety, scrap and maintenance problems to quality issues and customer concerns. The moderator role rotates among managers, any of whom are free to blurt out suggestions and comments as the meetings roll along.
The idea is to spot trends and get to the root of problems as a way to improve areas such as the rate of defective parts and boosting on-time delivery stats.
Steve Swihart, president and founder of the company, credits the empowerment room for driving growth and opening new opportunities by making the company stronger than its competitors.
"It shows our shortcomings, our bottlenecks, our constraints," Swihart said. "That communication, that systematic discipline of coming together, that's powerful."
The meetings have helped empower Swihart's sales.
For the first five months of this year, revenue at the company has increased 28 percent compared to the same period in 2010. In addition, Swihart Industries has hired six people this year, bringing its employee roster to about 30, and looks to hire another five people during the next six weeks.
Swihart Industries churns out parts, such as hubs used by the trucking industry. Its clients are typically direct suppliers to truck and auto manufacturers.

GCU Vice Chancellor Professor Dr Muhammad Khaleeq-ur-Rahman was the Chief Guest on the occasion, while Dean Faculty of Sciences Professor Dr Islamullah Khan, WWF Pakistan representative Najmul Huda Khan, University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences Dean of Fisheries and Wildlife Professor Dr Muhammad Ashraf and EPS Advisor Dr Tabinda were also present there.
Vice Chancellor Khaleeq-ur-Rahman, in his address, urged the students to take part in the social activities to save the environment. "Being citizens we have forgotten our responsibilities and to make Pakistan a developed country, we must follow the disciplines of a society decided by the Islam," he said.
Professor Dr Muhammad Ashraf, in his lecture pointed out those wetlands was not only much important for a country's environment and biodiversity but also for its economy. He said that any water area having 6-metre depth is called wetland. He said that Wetlands Day had been marked since 1971 when the Convention on Wetlands or Ramsar Convention was signed by 18 countries on February 2 in the Iranian city of Ramsar. He said that the main wetlands of Pakistan include Astola Island (country's largest wetland), Chashma Barrage, Drigh Lake, Haleji Lake (Asia's largest bird sanctuary), Hub Dam, Indus River Delta, Jiwani Coastal, Jubho Lagoon, Kinjhar Lake, Miani Hor, Runn of Kutch, Tanda Dam, Taunsa Barrage, Thanedar Wala, Uchalli Lake and Deh Akro-II Desert Wetland Complex. Najmul Huda Khan said that WWF has added glacier lakes and floods in the definition of wetlands.

Friday Law Report: No general immunity for advice to settle
18 December 1998 Arthur J.S. Hall & Co (a firm) v Simons and other appeals Court of Appeal (Lord Bingham, Lord Chief Justice, Lord Justice Morritt and Lord Justice Waller) 14 December 1998
The Court of Appeal all-owed three of four appeals which had been listed and heard together, but dismissed the fourth.
The following questions of law had arisen on the appeals: the extent and circumstances in which a lawyer's immunity from suit in relation to the allegedly negligent conduct of a case in court protected him against claims for allegedly negligent acts and omissions which had taken place out of court; whether a lawyer, if not otherwise immune from a claim in negligence by a client, became so when the court approved a consent order, particularly in matrimonial proceedings in relation to ancillary relief; and whether, in such circumstances, it was an abuse of the process of the court to claim damages against a lawyer for alleged negligence leading to the making of a consent order.
Rupert Jackson QC, Norman Wright and Sian Mirchandani (Weightmans, Liverpool) for Arthur J.S. Hall & Co; Andrew Edis QC (Hill Dickinson Davis Campbell, Liverpool) for Mr Simons; Martin Pointer QC and Stephen Trowell (Cooper Whiteman) for Mr Barratt; Lord Meston QC and Rupert Jackson QC (Reynolds Porter Chamberlain) for Woolf Seddon; Mr Cockbone appeared in person; Rupert Jackson QC and Christopher Critchlow (Wansbroughs Willey Hargrave, Leeds) for Atkinson Dacre & Slack; Peter Duckworth and Nicholas Bowen (Stephens & Scown, Exeter) for Mr Harris; Rupert Jackson QC and Jeffrey Bacon (Bond Pearce, Exeter) for Scholfield Roberts & Hill.
Lord Bingham CJ said that the main features of the law in a case where a legal adviser sought to restrain further prosecution of proceedings against him by a plaintiff for whom he had acted in an earlier case, and who claimed that his negligence had led to an outcome less favour- able than the plaintiff would and should have achieved but for the negligence, were as follows.
The first question was whether the plaintiff's claim represented an abusive collateral challenge to the earlier judgment of the court: if it did, the claim would ordinarily be dismissed or struck out.
In deciding that question it was aways necessary to consider the nature and effect of the earlier judgment, the nature and basis of the claim made in the later proceedings, and any grounds relied on to justify the collateral challenge, if was found to be such.
Where the later proceedings did constitute a collateral attack they might, and ordinarily would, be an abuse of the process unless the plaintiff could properly allege a breach of duty which either deprived him of a reasonable opportunity of appreciating that better terms were available whether on settlement or at a contested hearing, or placed him in the position of having to accept a settlement significantly less advantageous or more disadvantageous than he should have had.
A plaintiff seeking to mount a collateral challenge to an earlier judgment or order would be required to explain why steps had not been taken to set aside or challenge the judgment or order complained of in the original proceedings: it would never be enough that the plaintiff was suffering from post-settlement remorse.
Pending reconsideration of Rondel v Worsley [1967] 3 All ER 993 and Saif Ali v Sydney Mitchell & Co (a firm) (P, third party) [1978] 3 All ER 1033 by the House of Lords, the ratio of those cases was binding on lower courts.
There could be no general rule that a lawyer was or was not immune from liability in advising a client to settle a case, and immunity did not depend on when or where such advice was given. All depended on the advice given, the reason for it and the complaint made about it.

"Forget the Sound Effects!"
Overall a good book..........will probably go back and read the first one in the series. A bit impausible in spots.............a General participating in a "breaking and entering" to help out a friend????
Sound effects were annoying but most of all, the female voices were beyond irritating. Each one was worse than the last one. I have heard other narrations by Orlagh Cassidy where she is using her natural voice and they are fine......obviously she has a problem with multiple characters.

Pictures of Paris Hilton Celebrating Kyle Richards's Birthday With Lisa Vanderpump
Paris and Nicky Celebrate Their Aunt Kyle's Real Birthday!
Paris Hilton put away her bikinis and threw on a sweater to celebrate her aunt Kyle Richards's birthday in LA last night. Kyle got started celebrating her big day by getting lunch at Villa Blanca with her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills buddy Lisa Vanderpump — the restaurant, owned by Lisa, made their cast-mate Taylor Armstrong's list of her favorite places in the city! The girls kept the party going with a mariachi-filled dinner at Frida, and Lisa apparently helped herself to a few margaritas and may be feeling the aftereffects today. The guest list at the meal also included Nicky Hilton, her photo-taking boyfriend, David Katzenberg, Paris's man, Cy Waits, and Kyle's hunky husband, Mauricio Umansky. Nicky, though, wasn't thrilled with the live music at the restaurant! Paris sent a special Twitter shoutout to her aunt following a long day at a Vogue shoot with Terry Richardson, writing, "Love you so much! So happy for you and so proud of you!" The relatives share a common link of their success in reality TV, and there's lots more Kyle drama to come on her Bravo series this season considering her ongoing feud with Camille Grammer.

We're reading Mark Levin's "The Liberty Amendments: Restoring the American Republic". http://www.amazon.com/Liberty-Amendments-Restoring-American-Republic/dp/1451606273.
Everyone's debating the pros and cons of his approach. Read the book and join the discussion!
We'll finish up the book for the January 6th meeting at 7PM at the Sump Memorial Library in Papillion. Please bring ideas for the next book you'd like to cover.
Here are the three most important books and three most important documents:
Three books:
Federalist Papers
Democracy in America
Rules for Radicals
Three docs:
Port Huron Statement (Radical SDS paper that has governed much of the left's strategy)
The three books that Ronald Reagan thought everyone should read were:
The Road to Serfdom, Friedrich Hayek
Economics in One Lesson, Henry Hazlitt
The Law, Frederic Bastiat
Here are the links to the Readers Digest condensed versions of the first two books:

Are you participating in the webinar Tuesday evening? We would welcome any comments you have from that even if you can't attend the meetings in person. All of us want to make a difference. Your focus on the Liberty Amendments and there implementation will do so. And, if you change your mind, we will look forward to seeing you again. Everyone else, we will have a great discussion tomorrow night. Keep warm!

Mark has discussed the dif between nullification and the Art 5 convention. I'm still digesting all that, but I shared a link with our Glen to pass around on it. The nub of it seems to be that nullification posits the right of a state to unilaterally reject a federal law. (Obama's good at that.) But Art 5 convention requires 2/3 to propose an amendment and 3/4 to ratify. I thought Lotfi was all over the map in his column. I've gotta say that I would tend to go with Mark's argument over all the competition, but we haven't heard the end of this! It will be crystal clear in no time. :)
Tonight's TeaParty patriots webinar was a good beginning. Pretty basic, but each Tues at 6:30--our time--for the next few weeks they'll cover pros and cons of Art 5 Convention and what amendments should be pursued, etc. Very good initiative.
See ya soon!

In the meantime, just read Levin's latest on Madison rejecting nullification (as practiced by S. Carolina and confederates) http://on.fb.me/1iDiTDM
On Twitter, @TenthAmendment countered Levin: http://bit.ly/JS5Cbl Sounds to me like the term "nullification" got twisted for twisted purposes. Nothing new under the sun. :)

Once Forbidden, Books Become A Lifeline For A Young Migrant Worker
Originally published on Fri May 30, 2014 1:33 pm
In the late 1950s, when she was just 8 years old, Storm Reyes began picking fruit as a full-time farm laborer for less than $1 per hour. Storm and her family moved often, living in Native American migrant worker camps without electricity or running water.
With all that moving around, she wasn't allowed to have books growing up, Storm tells her son, Jeremy Hagquist, on a visit to StoryCorps in Tacoma, Wash.
"Books are heavy, and when you're moving a lot you have to keep things just as minimal as possible," she says.
She remembers a tough childhood in the migrant camps.
"The conditions were pretty terrible. I once told someone that I learned to fight with a knife long before I learned how to ride a bicycle," Storm says. "And when you are grinding day after day after day, there is no room in you for hope. There just isn't. You don't even know it exists. There's nothing to aspire to except filling your hungry belly. That's how I was raised."
But when she was 12, a bookmobile came to the fields where she and her family worked.
"So when I saw this big vehicle on the side of the road, and it was filled with books, I immediately stepped back," she says. "Fortunately the staff member saw me, kind of waved me in, and said, 'These are books, and you can take one home. You have to bring it back in two weeks, but you can take them home and read them.' "
The bookmobile staffer asked Storm what she was interested in and sent her home with a couple of books.
"I took them home and I devoured them. I didn't just read them, I devoured them," Storm says. "And I came back in two weeks and had more questions. And he gave me more books, and that started it."
The experience, she says, was life-changing.
"That taught me that hope was not just a word. And it gave me the courage to leave the camps. That's where the books made the difference."
Storm left the camps when she was a teenager and attended night school. She ended up working in the Pierce County Library System for more than 30 years.
"By the time I was 15, I knew there was a world outside of the camps," she says. "I believed I could find a place in it. And I did."
