text: Suited for the more modern player who stays upright for as long as possible. The Hi rebound foam on the inside provides enhanced rebound control that contributes to fast, long clears. The Hi control foam used on the outside wing of the leg guards enhance the goalie's control of ball deflection. These pads are wider than traditional leg guards, giving a bigger area against attackers. ROBO is specifically designed for the elite level goalie. This is the leg guard most Olympians rely on for performance, style, protection and complete confidence. OBO foam is specially designed with a much tighter cell structure than foam from other companies. For goalies, tighter cells mean the foam lasts much longer and maintains a consistently high level of rebound over time.

Muscles remember past glory
Extra nuclei produced by training survive disuse
Pumping up is easier for people who have been buff before, and now scientists think they know why — muscles retain a memory of their former fitness even as they wither from lack of use.
That memory is stored as DNA-containing nuclei, which proliferate when a muscle is exercised. Contrary to previous thinking, those nuclei aren't lost when muscles atrophy, researchers report online August 16 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The extra nuclei form a type of muscle memory that allows the muscle to bounce back quickly when retrained.
The findings suggest that exercise early in l

Digital prints as close as you can to a pro lab
We live in a world where moments didn't truly happen unless they're caught on camera and shared with the world. We never want to miss a moment without having a permanent reminder to hold on to. The fact that more photos were taken in the last year than there has been in the rest of history combined should show just how obsessed today's society is with taking photos. But gone are the days where photos end up in a box under the bed and that is where digital printing comes in.
The next step is deciding on what to do with your photos. Most of you settle for uploading your images to social media, or making an album on your laptop and you never look at them again. Printing photos may sound extremely old fashioned in this day and age, but with our digital printing services you'll soon see how the technology has changed with the times.
With our digital printing services you get high quality prints on a wide variety of products. The possibilities are endless with what we can offer and you can do it all without even getting up. From the comfort of your own home, you can send us your photos with our quick and easy uploading process and we'll do the rest for you. No more trips to the chemist to have your photos developed and there's no waiting until next week for them to arrive either. Digital printing is a speedy process, with next day delivery available if you need your products as soon as possible.
The interesting thing about digital printing is that it can achieve so much more than printing out your favorite memories. The applications of our printing services could do wonders for your professional life as well as your personal life.
You can print your images onto just about anything you can think of: stationary, business cards, bags, fliers, anything that will get the word spreading about your business or service. Digital printing is cheap and we offer brilliant deals that make this the perfect investment for you.
There's no limit to creativity when it comes to digital printing. It doesn't just have to stop at photos.
Another hugely popular use of digital printing is to create memorable gifts. In a world where people have just about everything, gift buying is both stressful and often very expensive. However, digital printing has created a form of gift giving that is both thoughtful and inexpensive. Everyone will know someone who has welled up at gift with pictures of their loved ones (or maybe that someone is you?). From cushions and calendars, to mugs and personalized cards, you're guaranteed to find the perfect gift for that special someone. And the best part about it is that you've created something truly unique, a one of a kind object, making it the perfect gift.
Digital printing is increasing in popularity as it's become revolutionary from a personal and professional aspect and we understand there's a lot of competition out there. With prices coming down and efficiency and creative options on the up, we know there are plenty of places you can go to get what you require.

I'll be on the road again tomorrow and probably be camping out in AZ somewhere. The con has been a nice "relax-o event." Al and Dex showed up on Thursday and were able to move right in. From that point on, it has just been fun to sit in the lobby and watch the con go by. Planting yourself in one spot lets you observe all of the fursuiters and other con attendees passing by. I absolutely love the massive ballrooms where events take place as well as the massive space of the Dealers' Den. I purchased a bunch of comics and a vore sleeping bag. It's a large whale shark that you climb into via its mouth. It was much more reasonably priced than the Chum Buddy great white shark which has been available online for years. I also introduced Al and Dex to the Black Bear Diner which was met by 2 enthusiastic thumbs up. Of course our Reno breakfast standby is Peg's Glorified Ham and Eggs. So yummy! So overall it has been a nice time. It has been nice to see some old faces and catch up. That's about the only reason to come to a con. Of course it's hard to find a lot of good quality time to spend with folks. Such is the nature of the beast.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Diversified holding company Nacco Industries Inc. later today plans to complete the spinoff of its Hyster-Yale lift truck division by giving each of its shareholders a share of the new Hyster-Yale stock.
On Monday, Hyster-Yale Materials Handling shares will trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the "HY" ticker symbol.
Both NACCO and Hyster-Yale are headquartered in Cleveland.
Hyster-Yale is by far the largest portion of NACCO, making up nearly 80 percent of the company's sales and profits. The rest of the company is the Kitchen Collection series of retail stores, Hamilton Beach small appliances and the company's core North American coal businesses.
When NACCO announced its plans to spin off Hyster-Yale in June, it told shareholders in a letter that the forklift and lift truck business had been run as a standalone division within NACCO, so the spinoff was not expected to create and administrative or management challenges.

Brown's point man on water came to Bakersfield Tuesday to try and shore up support among water contractors for the administration's proposed "twin tunnels" project to route water through the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. I don't think he hit his mark SHARE My Yahoo Print RELATED INFO 'First Look' Lois Henry appears on "First Look with Scott Cox" every Wednesday on KERN 1180 AM from 9 to 10 a.m. The show is also broadcast live onwww.bakersfield.com. You can get your two cents in by calling 842-KERN. Jerry Meral, deputy secretary of the Natural Resources Agency, was an engaging speaker who gave a lot of information about this complex subject. But he couldn't give audience members what they really wanted: How much water could contractors count on via the tunnels? And how much will it cost? Which was odd, because Meral started his talk acknowledging that those are the burning questions for water contractors. Even more odd, he seemed to issue a warning, of sorts. Or maybe he meant it merely as a nod to how integral the contractors in the room are to the proposal. "It will not be the opposition that stops this project, or lawsuits," he said. "If it fails, it will be because of the unwillingness of the people who would use it to write the checks." That struck an off chord. "I thought, 'C'mon Jerry, if we're unwilling to write more checks, it's because the fish agencies and environmentalists have made the project untenable,'" said Eric Averett, general manager of the Rosedale-Rio Bravo Water Storage District. "What are you trying to do? Guilt us into it?'" Let's hold up a second and get some background here. Most ag water districts in Kern County, and many urban districts here and throughout the state, rely on water from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. If you think this doesn't affect you, think again. Most city dwellers rely on ground water, a very finite resource. The less imported state water farmers have, the more they'll pump from the ground. That is an absolutely unsustainable situation, which could eventually hit you right in the tap. Getting water out of the delta has become much less reliable as declining populations of the endangered delta smelt have crimped the amount of water contractors can take. For the past six years a process called the Bay Delta Conservation Plan (BDCP) has been underway to try and find a middle ground where the smelt is protected and everyone gets at least some water supply. The BDCP is basically a habitat conservation plan, which could include the twin tunnels, depending on the outcome of a final environmental impact report. The studies underlying the BDCP haven't come cheap, about $240 million to date. And the water contractors have footed the entire bill. Now, contractors are being asked to pay the cost of building the twin tunnels, estimated at $14 billion. Which is why just about every ag district in Kern was represented at Meral's talk on Tuesday, hosted by the Water Association of Kern County. Meral's best advice was pretty weak, frankly. He said each water district should calculate for the worst case scenario and see if the numbers made financial sense to them to continue investing in the process. The tunnels might yield 4.6 million acre feet (the worst case) or 5.3 million acre feet (the best case). He promised to have better numbers in the fall. Even the best case scenario only gives contractors a little more water than they're getting now, Averett pointed out. Not only that, the state's own economic analysis shows the project would mostly benefit urban areas. That's because urban districts like the Metropolitan Water District can spread the cost of the water over a much larger number of users. I spoke with Meral later about the unease water contractors have with the vague twin tunnel numbers. Some local districts have already opted not to continue funding the BDCP process any longer. And others are teetering in that direction. While Meral said if the entire Kern County Water Agency dropped out, it would be "devastating" to the project, he downplayed concerns over one or two districts dropping out. He couldn't imagine that if one district dropped out, another district wouldn't pick up that open share. Despite all the unanswered questions, he was fairly certain contractors would come to the table and make a deal. Without another game in town, he could be right.

The darling Mrs. was fast forwarding through commercials during Bones and I yelled:
I saw a silver on black version of the A-Team logo.
"AW CRAP! That can only mean they are making a movie!"
I had her rewind.
Liam Neeson as "Hannibal"! Bradley Cooper as "Face"! "Fook" from District 9 as Murdock! Some UFC guy that pulls off Large and Mean with a side of cheese as well as Mr. T! DUDE! I'm so giving this a chance!
OK… OK… it's got Jessica Biel whose acting talent is as over rated as her looks. But if Liam could make Phantom Menace bearable, surely he can more than cancel out Biel's stage presence, or lack there of. Hey, at least it's not Megan Fox.
As a side note, when I was looking for the trailer on Youtube, I found this. Enjoy.

These are Mary's hot cross buns and they ARE gorgeous – really fruity and beautifully spiced with cinnamon and mixed spice. They look fab as well with the golden syrup glaze. I would recommend them but only if you're having a relaxing day at home, enabling you the luxury of lots to time to revisit the kitchen several times. They're not difficult, just take some time but very lovely and worth the time.
Makes 12 large buns or 18 medium-sized
What you need…
1 x electric mixer fitted with a dough hook!!!!
2 x baking sheets, lined with Bake O Glide/ baking paper
1 x piping bag fitted with a fine 3mm nozzle (for the crosses)
40g butter
300ml milk
500g strong white flour, plus extra for dusting
75g caster sugar
2 teaspoons mixed spice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Grated zest of 1 lemon
10g salt
10g fast-action dried yeast
1 egg, beaten
200g sultanas
50g chopped candied peel
Olive oil for greasing
for the topping
75g plain flour
100ml water
2 tablespoons golden syrup
What to do…
In separate saucepans, gently melt the butter and also warm the milk, just to tepid.
Meanwhile, into your mixer, chuck the flour, sugar, spices, lemon zest, salt and yeast. Put the mixer onto a slow speed and blend the ingredients together.
Add the melted butter, half the warm milk and the egg and mix until all the ingredients are blended. Add a little milk at a time now and keep checking the blend – the dough needs to come together and be on the wet side, rather than dry. You might not need all the milk. I reckon I had about 50mls that was not required.
Once you're happy with the dough, add in the sultanas and candied peel and let the mixer do its thing on a low speed for 10 minutes, at which point the dough will be silky and elastic. Turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface and give it a couple of kneads, just to get it into a ball shape.
Smear olive oil all around the inside of a nice roomy bowl, pop in your dough, cover with cling film and then leave it somewhere warm for 1½ hours or until doubled in size. (I put mine underneath the kitchen radiator).
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes. Return to the bowl, re-cover with cling film and leave in your chosen warm place for a further hour.
Turn the dough out again onto your floured surface and divide into 12 or 18 equal parts, depending on whether you want large or medium-sized buns. Shape each 1 into a ball and pop them onto the baking sheets, flattening them slightly.
Slip the baking sheets into a large polythene bag (I used large shopping bags) making sure that the bag doesn't touch the buns – they'll stick! Leave for a further hour until the buns have doubled in size.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 220°c / 425°f / gas 7.
To make the crosses, mix together the water and plain flour to make a paste; then spoon into the piping bag.
When the buns have risen, remove from the bags and pipe a cross on top of each one. Pop the buns in the oven bake for 15 – 20 minutes until pale golden brown (I overdid mine a bit!)
Finally, melt the golden syrup in a pan and, whilst the buns are still warm, brush the top of each one to give them a lovely – sticky – shine. Cool on a wire rack and then dig in to your Easter hot cross buns – they are lovely and worth the return trips to the kitchen!
Inspired by…
Mary Berry
How easy…
They are not difficult at all, particularly if you have an electric mixer. But they do tie you to the house for quite a while so your schedule needs to be such that you can pop back into the kitchen to complete the 3 stages. Absolutely worth it if you have the time.

Sanderson 'very happy' with Falcons result
Saracens coach Alex Sanderson was pleased that Saracens secured their second win of the weekend, as they brushed off the Newcastle Falcons at Allianz Park in the LV=Cup.
"I'm very happy. Getting back to back wins at Allianz Park this weekend is very pleasing," said Sanderson.
"We prepared for today like we would for any other game in the Premiership, we gave them due respect and really put the work in and I think that showed in the second half. In the first half there was a bit of rustiness, but we came through. In the first half we lacked a bit of execution but in the second half we were much better.
"We knew that the intensity and energy was there, that work rate was there in the first half so it was just a case of maintaining those levels of intensity and energy and we would get our just rewards, and we did" he added.

Collaboration is often cited as the key to accelerating innovation and challenging conventional thinking to find a new direction and expertise. This is certainly true of the relationship between Camira Fabrics, the Fashion & Textile Group Training Association (Textile Centre of Excellence) and Develop-U, a leading training provider offering bespoke and nationally accredited training programmes.
Award winning Camira Fabric's mission statement, 'we design and manufacture the most innovative, adventurous, environmentally sensitive fabrics in the world', reflects their proactive, outward facing approach to business. With over 600 employees across their Meltham Mills, Huddersfield HQ and Lithuania, it is Victor Smyth's, Camira's Continuous Improvement Manager, responsibility to co-ordinate lean deployment across the business.
"Lean manufacturing is an umbrella term for processes improvement and looking at ways to improve product quality by encompassing new technology and training opportunities," said Victor.
It was with this mandate that Victor embarked on aligning with a training provider to deliver the NVQ Level 3 in Business Improvement Techniques to existing employees. "We wanted to get Lean more embedded into the business with our employees and enhance their workplace skills as well as giving them the ability to monitor their own progress," said Victor. "We asked staff to volunteer and from those who expressed an interest, we selected 27 from across the company in areas such as manufacturing, admin, sales and accounting."
Victor's choice of Develop-U, based in Rotherham, was due to their clear vision on how to deliver the training. "We chose Develop-U because they stood out in terms of softer management and leadership skills," said Victor. "What swayed it for me is that they had a different and original take on delivering lean deployment."
Sam Morris, Managing Director at Develop-U said "The training provider, client and all agencies working in a true partnership massively affects the success of any programme," said Sam. "One of the things I say to every client we work with is that we need to work in a true partnership arrangement, with senior management involved in regular interviews. We need to work with our clients in an inclusive style and Camira were totally committed to this from the initial stages and have remained so throughout the process."
Delivery of the NVQ started in May 2013 with a five-day intensive tools and techniques programme. This progressed to a knowledge based programme completing with exams in June 2014. Develop-U's team has been available to all staff participating in the NVQ both inside and outside of the training programme. "We work differently to many of our competitors in that we employ a coaching function within our assessor role. We see this as essential to convert learning into improved performance and we are always available for advice and guidance," said Sam.
Sam is very clear that communication is vital for the success of any training programme. "Victor's communication strategy has been one of the best we have seen and we have worked with top players," said Sam. "His methodology has been phenomenal and that has been instrumental to the success of the programme."
The Textile Centre of Excellence, home to the Fashion and Textiles Group Training Association which provided assisted funding for the NVQ, proved "invaluable in their support" according to Victor. Sam echoed this and added, "The Textile Centre of Excellence was always professional, collaborative and co-operative. They are easy to talk to and work with making the operational side very accessible."
The success of the NVQ is evident in the feedback from participants. Richard Calvert, Lean Leader, said, "A fantastic programme which has provided the basics of lean management. I would like to gain further qualifications as a result of this training."
Bill Green, Lean Leader was equally impressed with the training, "I picked up a lot of news skills such as problem solving, process mapping, action planning and more about communicating, listening and leading teams," said Bill.
"The programme is increasing and enhancing the knowledge of the teams," said Victor. "A number of people have said that they wished they'd volunteered for the NVQ Level 3 as they can see the benefits to their work colleagues. This is positive affirmation in going forward with Develop-U and building on the success of our training programmes."
Sam is clear that Camira's success is due to their ability to address the shortfall between UK manufacturing and global manufacturing which has moved them towards textile excellence. "If you don't want to be left behind in a world that is changing rapidly you must be brave enough to embrace change. Choosing your training partner and working together to tailor the programme to suit your individual circumstances is hugely important. With effective planning of the programme delivery you can minimise the impact on production and maximize the transformational change," said Sam. "Most companies know they need to change but often resist the pain and inconvenience of changing. Camira has adopted a positive and proactive approach to training and this has clearly been a contributing factor in their marketplace success."

August 2002
Juror Responsibility
On the Internet at: http://www.americanradioworks.org/features/deadlydecisions/index.html
Every day, in courthouses around the country, tens of thousands of Americans are called for jury duty. It's generally not something most Americans look forward to. It's an inconvenience. It means interrupting our normal routines, missing work, and getting paid next to nothing to sit around a courthouse, hoping you won't be seated on some trial that will last for the next month and a half.
Surprisingly, most Americans who serve as jurors find it a positive experience by the time it's over. But jury service can also be extremely stressful, even traumatic. This is especially true in violent criminal cases, and above all, in death penalty cases. In the 38 states that have the death penalty, jurors who reach a guilty verdict must also decide if the defendant will live or die.
For this American RadioWorks special report, correspondent Alan Berlow examines cases in which death penalty jurors misunderstood, even disobeyed the laws designed to guide their decisions over life and death. And he found that jurors may be influenced by their own fears and prejudices when they sentence people to death.

For this American RadioWorks special report, correspondent Alan Berlow examines cases in which death penalty jurors misunderstood, even disobeyed the laws designed to guide their decisions over life and death. And he found that jurors may be influenced by their own fears and prejudices when they sentence people to death.
Jurors' Trauma
Brenda Barrett, a gentle, soft-spoken woman, and her husband Jim, a leather-skinned former Marine officer who did two tours in Vietnam, live on an idyllic patch of Virginia farmland 50 minutes south of Washington, D.C. Mr. Barrett boards, breaks and trains horses at his Oak Leaf Stables.
"I'm gonna let you ride the palomino," explains Jim, " the new palomino that I got. But when you first get on her, you gotta take a deep seat and a long rein... Just sit there calmly and talk to her. She don't know the word walk. She just trots."
Mrs. Barrett, an obstetrical nurse, delivers babies. In 1993, she and 11 other jurors sentenced 27-year-old Lonnie Weeks to death for murdering a Virginia trooper, Jose Cavazos. To this day, Mrs. Barrett finds it difficult to talk about the trial.
"I don't think there's anything you can compare it to, because I've never been asked to take the life of someone else," says Brenda Barrett.
Simply stated, this is the fundamental reality of a capital murder trial. There is, in fact, nothing more onerous that an ordinary citizen is asked to do, by his or her government, than to contemplate taking the life of another human being.
"You know when you're on a case like this," explains Brenda Barrett, "you see the blood, you see the photographs of the dead body and where the bullets entered, you see a layout of the crime scene. It becomes a reality to you. It's not something you just read in the paper, but it's something you pick up, you touch, you look at, you see you smell, you know, you become part of it."
Other jurors who have served in capital cases express similar feelings. David Dobyns builds houses in Northern Virginia. He was the foreman of Brenda Barrett's jury.
"It was an emotional roller coaster basically, for a full week," says Dobyns. "I consider myself a Christian. I don't want to put anyone to death, but this was just a very tough decision. It's one of the hardest things I've had to do."
But what happens to ordinary citizens when they're operating under that kind of pressure? Charged by their government with this momentous decision, do they think clearly? Do they follow the law? Do they get it right?
The Cruz Case
Audio from a TV Newscast: "A jury in Rockford tonight sentenced 26-year-old Rolando Cruz to death, despite the pleas of his mother. It was the same jury that found Cruz guilty yesterday of the abduction, rape and murder seven years ago of Jeanine Nicarico of Naperville."
The 1983 murder of 10-year-old Jeanine Nicarico in Illinois precipitated a classic case of a capital murder prosecution gone awry. Two separate juries found Rolando Cruz guilty of the murder, and Cruz was twice sentenced to death. But the police had no physical evidence implicating Cruz, and DNA largely excluded him as a suspect. On top of that, a police officer lied under oath while testifying, and the prosecution suppressed a confession from a man who very well might have been the killer.
Michael Callahan, an insurance broker in Lombard, Illinois, lives about 10 miles east of where the little girl's body was found. Callahan was a member of the first jury that found Cruz guilty and led to his death sentence by a judge. Callahan says this trial in which Cruz was tried with two co-defendantswas a "gut-wrenching" experience, and that the jury deliberations got off to a particularly bad start.
"There were probably eight jurors that I was satisfied made up their minds, before the trial started, that someone's going to pay for what they did to this little girl," describes Callahan. "As a matter of fact, the first recess, the first day of the trial, the gentleman who was elected subsequently as the jury foreman, he said, 'Well, they're here, they sure must have done something.' And I thought, you know, that's the wrong way to start out a trial."
Callahan says these preconceived notions about the guilt of the defendants were carried into the jury room two months later at the conclusion of the trial.
"We go into the jury room," recalls Callahan, "we get the instructions from the judge, we take the vote to elect the jury foreman, this guy's elected foreman, the first words out of his mouth are, 'Well I guess this will just be a mere formality.' He kind of thought, hey fine, they're guilty, let's sign it and be on our way. And I said, what do you mean a mere formality? I said, we just spent two months listening to a whole bunch of people and as far as I'm concerned, this isn't an open and shut deal. We need to discuss the evidence."
Callahan says the state's evidence was very weak, "I can remember vividly when the state's attorney rested his case, the thought in my mind was, 'This is all we're going to hear? I mean, this is it? This is the evidence? I was just aghast. And I really started to feel uncomfortable."
Plagued by doubts about the guilt of the defendants, determined to stand up against those jurors who'd presumed the defendants had killed little Jeanine Nicarico, what did Callahan do? Well, he went into the jury room and voted to find Cruz guilty of first-degree murder.
But why? Why would a juror with such serious reservations about the guilt of the defendants risk allowing them to be sentenced to death? What about establishing guilt, as the law requires, "beyond a reasonable doubt"?
Callahan explains, "My thoughts were, OK, I know what's going to happen. There's going to be an appeal. So I'm going to find these guys guilty. OK? I'm not totally happy with that. But I wasn't happy letting them go. I'm not totally satisfied that they were involved. However, there's enough evidence if it were to be believed that, yeah, maybe, maybe, maybe there's something there. So on that basis, I thought, yeah, I'll find 'em guilty. Not going to give them the death penalty. Never do that. But sooner or later the truth is going to come out."
Callahan may have been unwilling to sentence Cruz and the other defendants to death, but it didn't matter, because the elected judge in this highly politicized, high profile case showed no such reservations. Callahan was right about one thing, however. The truth did come out about a decade later. Cruz had nothing to do with the murder. He had lost nearly 12 years of his life, most of it on death row.
The Milgram Experiments
Of course, jurors are not supposed to assume that someone else will somehow sort out the mess they're presented with when a case is appealed. In fact, the law is supposed to make jurors feel a huge weight of moral responsibility for these life or death decisions. No doubt, many jurors do. When they don't, however, the result can be catastrophic as the Cruz case suggests. Why they don't assume responsibility may be explained, in part, by one of the classic experiments in social psychology.
Sound from an old audio recording: "Let me out of here. You have no right to keep me here. Let me out. Let me out. Let me out."
In 1961, Stanley Milgram, an assistant professor of psychology at Yale University, conducted what have become known as the "Obedience Experiments." Milgram persuaded ordinary people to give painful electric shocks to people they had only just met.
The subjects, known as "teachers" were told to increase the strength of an electric shock given a so-called "learner" each time he made a mistake in memorizing a series of word pairs. The subjects believed they were part of a study to ascertain whether negative reinforcement could motivate learning. In reality, Milgram wanted to test whether ordinary people would obey an authority figure even to the point of being sadistic and cruel. To make the experiment even more provocative, the "teachers" were led to believe that the "learner" they were shocking had a heart condition.
Sounds from the Milgram experiment: A buzzer.
Sounds from the Milgram experiment: A buzzer.
In reality, the "learner" was not being shocked, and was deliberately giving wrong answers. But the subject or "teacher" didn't know this. Eventually the "learner" with his heart condition would stop screaming or banging on the wall and fall silent, leading the "teacher" to believe he'd lost consciousness.
Sounds from the Milgram experiment:
Sounds from the Milgram experiment:
Although the "teacher" was clearly uncomfortable giving the electric shocks, goaded by the experimenter and assured that he was not personally responsible, the teacher eventually gave the unconscious "learner" more than 400 volts. In fact, half of the subjects in Milgram's experiment administered the maximum punishment. Nearly all the subjects gave the maximum voltageif they were part of a group, and led to believe that they were simply going along with a majority or unanimous decision.
Skirting Responsibility
Indiana University Law Professor Joseph Hoffman says jurors confronted with the "anguishing moral dilemma of a death sentencing decision" seek to avoid personal moral responsibility for the decision much as the subjects in Milgram's experiment did. A former clerk to Chief Justice William Rehnquist, Hoffman researched this phenomenon for the Capital Jury Project, a consortium of law professors, psychologists, criminologists and other social scientists. The project has interviewed more than 1200 capital jurors during the past decade. Hoffman says some jurors he interviewed simply denied that the death sentence they handed down was their responsibility at all.
Hoffman explains, "We've had jurors say, for example, that they believed that the judge had told them that they should come back with a death sentence when, in fact, we have transcripts of the trial and no such thing was actually said. But the jury members, for whatever reason, interpreted the judge's instructions in that way."
In the case of Virginia cop-killer Lonnie Weeks, juror Ted Trynock, says several women jurors became highly emotional during discussions over the death sentence, and the judge repeatedly reassured them that they were not responsible for the sentence.
"Whenever the ladies were crying," recalls Trynock, "the judge came back into the quarters, where we were at, and the judge, he told them that 'your job is just to find him innocent or guilty, OK. I do the sentencing.'"
The judge said that?
"Yeah. Uh huh," says Trynock.
If the judge actually said that, his behavior was not only highly unethical, but also entirely misleading. Virginia judges have never had authority over death sentencing. Yet taking that burden off the jurors may have made it easier for some of them to vote for death. Weeks was executed two years ago.
In the past quarter century, 120 people were executed in states where judges rather than juries were allowed to make critical sentencing decisions. In June, the Supreme Court ruled that the laws in five of those states violated the constitutional right to a trial by jury. Yet three states still allow juries to recommend death sentences, leaving a final decision to the judge. Whether these statutes will also be found unconstitutional remains to be seen.
Professor Hoffman says that the experience of being asked to "kill someone" is so "alien and so overwhelming" that jurors will frequently shift responsibility to the defendant, the appeals process, the judge or the law itself.
"Jurors will say things like, well, I think the law basically was pointing us in the direction of a death sentence in this case," says Hoffman. "Or in some cases, the other way: the law was telling us that we should come back with life in this case. That's not what the law is supposed to do. It's not what the law is trying to do. But it's how the jurors interpret that legal guidance."
Hoffman says the law should make jurors feel responsible and behave responsibly. But, he says, to have a functioning capital punishment system, jurors cannot be made to feel that they are entirely responsible for the "violence" they tell the state to carry out. Hoffman says that if the law goes too far in emphasizing that the defendant's life rests in the jurors' hands: "You may produce a situation in which no jury would ever impose a death sentence."
Defense lawyers have long argued unsuccessfully as it turns out that capital jurors should be given graphic details of the execution process itself to drive home the weight of their decision and of their moral responsibility.

Warning: This post is not for the faint of heart. If you are the squeamish type, go elsewhere.
Back last February when we bought chicks I refused to name any of them for fear we would grow too attached to them and they'd die.
We paid for pullet chicks, and got them – for the most part.
But then there was Clyde.
Clyde was a beautiful red rooster with iridescent green and black tail feathers. He announced his presence at around 4:30 a.m. each morning. Sometimes as early as 3:30 a.m. He was a confused bird.
Clyde grew meaner over the last few months. He had attacked Ethan a time or two and he had attacked me.
Yesterday, Greg and I went out to move the coop and Clyde tore into Greg.
Really, it was one of the few times I lost myself in gales of laughter. Clyde was rushing Greg, and Greg was yelling, "Oh, no! He's attacking me, sweetie!"
I was laughing so hard I couldn't move.
After collecting myself we worked to get Clyde back in his pen, but he was having none of it and absconded to the woods behind our house, where he sat two houses down in the thick brambles and crowed loudly. Greg couldn't stand it. He worried about the noise, he worried that Clyde would attack a neighbor child. He's a bit of a worrier.
"If someone approaches that rooster, they deserve it," I said. "And it's not like the neighbors don't know we have a friggin' rooster, what with all the racket he makes."
I figured Clyde would eventually come back to roost, if not before. We discussed what to do when he did, and decided it was probably time for Clyde to go. He'd gotten mean, he was prone to escaping, and he eats a lot of food without producing eggs.
I had mixed feelings about it.
Pretty soon our neighbor came to the door to let us know Clyde was in his yard. And so began a rousing round of Catch the Chicken, wherein the three of us chased Clyde all over the neighborhood with a fishing net ready to throw over him. After several near catches, Clyde was cornered in a cellar staircase. Greg cast the net over him and that was all she wrote.
I carried Clyde back to our house in my arms, and doing so made me really sad because he was so calm – scared to death, I'm sure – and his weight and warmth reminded me of a baby. It's as if he knew we were making The Decision.
Greg and I stood on the back patio for a few minutes debating whether we could really go through with the planned execution. After all, slaughtering a chicken is by nature a very hands-on procedure. I knew I wasn't going to do it. Greg thought he probably could if he had to but I don't think he relished the prospect.
Reluctantly, I made the call to go forward with it.
I didn't really want to watch it, but told myself I had to. After all, I was the one who wanted the chickens and knew at the time this might be part of it. Greg did the deed. I am not ashamed to admit that as Clyde lost his life for no other sin than being a rooster, I cried. I had a soft spot for Clyde, even if he did wake us at all hours of the morning and fight us when we messed with his home.
Then we had to decide whether to eat him.
By the time we got to that point I wasn't in such bad shape. Now I was feeling more adventurous – I'd never slaughtered a chicken before, and now the hardest part was over. At this point it was more a matter of, "Hey, here's something we've never done before, now if we go ahead and do it, we can say we've done it." So we sallied forth with our knife and the book I call the "Chicken Bible" telling us just how to proceed. The Chicken Bible led us step by step through the process, and Clyde is now sitting in the refrigerator downstairs, skinless (we don't usually eat the skin), his meat ageing for better flavor. I imagine that on Thursday or Friday he'll be roasted up or made into chicken and noodles, with a likely casserole to follow.
This morning it was awfully quiet out in the chicken pen. I do sort of miss Clyde. I feel a twinge of regret, but I'm sure that will pass. After all, one reason I got the chickens to begin with was so the kids would know something about how their food arrives. Witnessing this ordeal, they certainly learned a lot about that. They also learned about respect for the dead. When Ethan wanted to chuck rocks at poor dead Clyde, Greg put a stern stop to it with a warning to have respect for the animal who died so you could eat.
Which is more than most kids know.

Allison Crowe heading to the "super"-sized screen
Allison Crowe is heading for the big screen in the upcoming blockbuster Superman film Man of Steel, coming to theatres in June.
Allison, a singer/songwriter from Nanaimo, BC, has made Corner Brook her home for the past few years. Performing in and around town, Allison has also taken on musical direction roles with Theatre Newfoundland and Labrador, including with the upcoming original production of Newfoundland Vinyl – The Flip Side at the 2013 Gros Morne Theatre Festival.
Everyone involved in the Man of Steel project is very tight-lipped about exactly what Allison will be doing on-screen with the Kryptonian superhero, or if she is in the soundtrack of the film, but she can confirm that she was involved with filming:
"The experience of filming on 'Man of Steel' was one of the most fulfilling and INSANELY exciting (seriously) experiences I've ever had – if not THE most! I can't say much about it – and that's part of the fun. My lips are sealed," says Crowe…
"What I can say is – I was so excited I couldn't sleep the night before, and that I am so incredibly humbled and overwhelmed and grateful to be a part of all of this – and it couldn't have been with a lovelier group of people."
All lips are sealed until after the red carpet premier of the film in New York City on June 10. However, comic book rumour website Cosmic Book News posted information back in March 2012 from a Man of Steel call-sheet from October 2011. The scene took place at a location called called "'Cassidy's Roadhouse,' aka The Cassidy Inn Pub located in Nanaimo, British Columbia":
Canadian Singer Allison Crowe has been cast as a singer at the bar. Crowe is originally from the area, who started out singing at local bars and coffee houses. Check out her website to listen to some samples. Crowe's influences include Ani DiFranco, Pearl Jam,Tori Amos and TheCounting Crows. Maybe she will get a spot on the official soundtrack.
Of course, these rumours don't carry a lot of weight, so we'll have to wait until we see the movie to know for sure!

This past weekend I went to my second boot camp class at Warrior Fitness Boot Camp in Manhattan. My preconceived notions were that only people who are trying to lose weight and don't have the self-discipline to push themselves during a workout go to boot camp, but I was proved wrong during both classes. Boot camp is about more than just losing weight–the class helps tone, provides variety, and a sense of being part of a team. Although the instructors are marines and try to push you to the next
level, everyone is in the same boat and gives each other words of encouragement. I also like the fact that the instructors wear army pants with the Warrior Fitness Boot Camp tee shirt that is mandatory for all participants to wear as well. It provides a feeling of unity.
What is great about Warrior Fitness Boot Camp is that there are men and women in all different levels of shape. There are people who are marathoners and do boot camp as cross training, and people who simply want to get in better shape. The layout at Warrior Fitness is perfect to work all different muscles. We run up stairs
(sometimes with weights), there is a small running track circling an obstacle course with monkey bars, hurdles, walls to climb over, a rope to climb up, and a walled tube to climb through. There is also space on the sides of
the track where the team does jumping jacks, pushups, sit ups, etc. It really does have everything for a complete
workout in a relatively small space.
I was sore for two full days after one boot camp class, but it didn't make me want to quit. Quite the opposite in fact–it makes me want to continue to work hard to get in better shape and to transform my body. Warrior Fitness Boot Camp sounds intimidating, but once you're there, you will be given encouragement and you will feel good about yourself afterward even though you'll be sweating profusely and mentally begging for a water break throughout the 60 minute session. It is rewarding. You might even become so addicted you start doing back-to-back classes. Warrior Fitness Boot Camp brings out the warrior in you.
My only complaint is that it's really expensive. It's $60 for 3 introductory classes which is doable, but the cost only goes up from there. Three months unlimited can set you back $1500. Boot camp is highly addictive after you get over the being sore and being ordered around part. If you can afford it, it's definitely worth giving a try. There is no doubt that you will be in shape after attending Warrior Fitness Boot Camp for a few weeks.

Just like our V8 Supercars, the international spectacle of F1 has recently come under fire for awarding consistent point scorers over outright victors in the title race.
The points system was shaken up at the start of the Noughties to give drivers other than Schumi a go at the driver's title. But the FIA heavies have decided the current system - 10 points for first, then scores all the way to eighth place - is still not exciting enough.
The 2009 season will now be scored on wins alone. The placings will still be given a point score as a carry-over 'safety precaution' - in case there is a tie for the title, and to determine the runners-up.
Had this system been in place last year, Massa would have won the championship by a round win...

Last week I wrote about the negative impact that negative employees have on both customers and results, so it is only fitting that this week I focus on the positive impact of happy employees.
Let me ask, have you ever received amazingly good service from an unhappy waitperson? Probably not. Ever been WOW'd by a bored salesperson? I doubt it. That's why the environment you create for your employees directly impacts the customer experience, the employee experience and, ultimately, store results. You're not going to have happy customers unless you first have happy employees.
Here are six key factors to a happy retail work environment:
1. The leader's attitude. You don't often see a miserable staff with a happy leader. Most of the time the leader's attitude and that of the staff go hand in hand. When everything is going well it's pretty easy for a leader to have a good attitude. When things aren't going well at work or home, it's not so easy.
I always tell the managers, owners, and executives I work with to check their problems at the door, keep their personal issues to themselves, and maintain a positive attitude. No matter what's going on, it will soon pass. Even if it doesn't, you don't need an underperforming store or business to go along with it.
2. A leader who cares - and shows it. If a business owner or manager doesn't care about his/her employees, why on earth will the employees care about customers? Engage your employees. Be interested and involved in their growth and development. Help them be better at their jobs. Caring is an action, not just a thought.
3. Praise and recognition. Employees who feel appreciated demonstrate that appreciation in how they treat customers. Taking time to regularly praise and recognize individuals for their contributions and efforts goes a long way toward creating a happy workplace. I meet a lot of leaders who think they give plenty of praise and recognition, but their staffs wouldn't necessarily agree.
4. Take Five meetings every day. Take Five meetings, or huddles as some people call them, are essential to creating a happy workplace. They ensure regular communication, give you an opportunity to praise and recognize, and help everyone get focused for the day. Regular communication and feeling informed definitely contributes to an employee's happiness. I can never stress enough the positive impact of investing a few minutes a day in a Take Five with your staff. If you don't do them, start.
5. Keep work fun. As Ben Cohen of Ben & Jerry's ice cream fame once said, "If it's not fun, why do it?" Don't underestimate the importance of games, contests, and small gestures to keep your staff smiling. Fun leads to happiness, and happiness leads to success.
6. No drama allowed. Gossip and unresolved conflict, better known as drama, directly impacts the staff attitude and impact on results. You may remember that back in early April I wrote an article on creating a drama-free store.
I'm not saying drama is an issue in your business, but the article and accompanying sign to use in the store was downloaded over 1,000 times in the first day. Okay, maybe drama is a bit of a problem. It's vital that a staff be drama-free in order to be happy and successful. You can read the entire article and download the sign here. You can also read how to eliminate current drama in this article.
So let me ask, in which of these six areas are you strongest? In which can you most improve? What actions can you take today to create an even happier workplace?

Balmain Care for Kids offers casual days if there is availability. Unfortunately we do not offer swap days.
When a child is to be withdrawn from care, the parent must give six weeks notice in writing; this can be done via email. During this period, fees are still payable.
When a child is to be withdrawn from care after the start of term 4 of the school year (e.g. October), fees must still be paid till the end of the year.
Notice of withdrawal will be accepted during the normal opening hours of Balmain Care for Kids, but will not be accepted during the centres week close down over the Christmas period. The notice of withdrawal is effective from the date it is lodged with the centre
NB: You only are entitled to receive subsidies; such as, CCB and/or CCR up until your child's last physical presence at the centre. If your child is absent from care on the last day/s of care, Child Care Benefit (CCB) and Child Care Rebate (CCR) will not be paid – This is called Cessation of Care and is mandated by the Family Assistance Office (FAO). Parents will be billed for the full cost of care for this period as per government guidelines for Child Care Benefit and Rebates.

Dear Bucknellians,
I hope this note finds you well and that the winter break afforded you time with family and friends. As we did last year, we begin the spring semester with a profound and meaningful series of events around the legacy and teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Though Bucknell business has taken me away from campus for part of the week, I am grateful for and inspired by the members of our community who dedicated themselves to the weeklong celebration of Dr. King through the MLK Week series Charleston, Rwanda and the Possibilities for Peace. I hope many of you have had the opportunity to take part in at least some of the week's activities.
I write to you today about a topic that has generated a great deal of discussion on campuses across the country during the past two months: the concept of a "sanctuary campus." Although some schools have adopted the label, which on its face may be reassuring, the term "sanctuary campus" lacks a universal definition and offers no legal protection. A common theme underlying the term seems to be a representation that a self-described "sanctuary" institution will prohibit immigration authorities from entering campus unless required to do so by a court-issued warrant. In practice, however, such a prohibition is not feasible. By their very nature, university campuses are open environments where students, faculty, staff and visitors come and go freely. I am confident that "sanctuary" schools in large urban centers, for instance, are not erecting checkpoints along their many miles of streets and sidewalks in order to determine the employment of each individual who crosses onto and through their campuses. In fact, stops of that nature would seem to run counter to our identity as an institution of higher learning.
Additionally, institutions such as Bucknell that sponsor foreign national faculty and staff, or participate in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) for international students and visitors, must agree to permit various federal agencies — including U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and Immigration and Customs Enforcement — to conduct on-site compliance reviews, sometimes unannounced. If Bucknell refused to agree to such obligations, it would lose the opportunity to bring to campus valued and talented individuals who, in turn, help forge a richer, more diverse learning community.
These are among the reasons Bucknell has joined most colleges and universities across the country in not adopting the label "sanctuary campus." We do not need a label to reaffirm our commitment to respecting and protecting the privacy of our community members. Some examples of that commitment include:
• Release of Information – As you may be aware, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) protects the information contained in student education records. Bucknell will not disclose FERPA-protected information in response to a third-party request without either (1) a student's permission, or (2) a properly issued subpoena or warrant. It is important to understand that "directory information" — which includes, among other elements, a student's name, address, telephone number and major — is not protected by FERPA unless a student takes additional steps to request its protection. You can find a complete listing of the categories of directory information at bucknell.edu/FERPA. This link also provides details on how students can block the disclosure of directory information.
If an immigration enforcement officer — or any other individual, including parents and members of the media — were to request (1) anything more than directory information, or (2) ANY information regarding a student who has requested that directory information not be disclosed, Bucknell would first require a subpoena or warrant. Bucknell would provide the student with notice of the subpoena prior to producing the requested information unless doing so would violate a court order.
• Undocumented Status – While Bucknell is required to maintain certain information regarding international students here on student or exchange visas, we do not maintain a record identifying undocumented students. Again, if we were asked by authorities to provide information about students who might be undocumented, we would not comply unless required by a warrant or subpoena.
• Involvement of Public Safety in Enforcement Activities – While Bucknell does not bar federal, state or local authorities from campus for the reasons discussed above, we are not required to participate in immigration enforcement activities. Bucknell's Department of Public Safety does not play any role in the enforcement of federal immigration laws and, again, will not do so without a subpoena or warrant.
While the above points are not new to Bucknell, I have recently directed the appropriate members of my senior staff to review their importance with the University offices most likely to receive requests regarding student information.
I, along with other university presidents across the country, have called for the continued protection of undocumented students, including those currently protected under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) policy. On Nov. 22, 2016, I added my name to the Statement in Support of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Program and our Undocumented Immigrant Students. I have also voiced my support for the Bar Removal of Individuals Who Dream and Grow Our Economy (BRIDGE) Act, legislation introduced on Jan. 12, which would provide work authorization and relief from deportation for individuals with and eligible for DACA status.
I will continue to act on Bucknell's behalf in accordance with a commitment that we, as a community, must regularly reaffirm: the rejection of discrimination and intolerance, and the endless work of fostering a more diverse and inclusive Bucknell.
My best,
John C. Bravman

What they don't tell you about Parenthood is that 99% of the time you will spend it in fear. You will live in fear and you will love in fear. It's an awful way to live but that's Parenthood for you.
The Kid was sick last week and, at first, I thought he had gotten what I had which was the flu. I had to go to the doctor's because I knew I was not going to be able to beat it on my own. Sure enough, The Kid developed a fever, puked and got a runny nose. A doctor's visit cleared him of strep throat as well as the flu so yay. He had the fever for the next few days until Saturday morning when he woke up with a normal temperature. Sunday morning is when he woke up with a rash on his belly and back. Our pediatrician indicated that it wasn't measles and it would go away on its own. What was it? Roseola. You would think that it would have calmed me down but in case you haven't figured this out by now, it didn't. It broke my heart into a billion little pieces watching The Kid smile at me as his belly was all blotchy. Fear. Fear, coupled with anxiety, has taken over my life. Last night, I drifted in and out of sleep as I thought about The Kid and the illness he was going to get as the years went on. I thought about how much anxiety it was going to give me and how I was going to keep cool hand Luking it all, as I have since his birth, while my insides caved into themselves and I screamed a billion screams while I watch my son, my beautiful son, cough and cough because he didn't know you have to cough it up and spit it out. Fear. Mind you, I'm not talking about making sure his new clothes were washed in Dreft and that his water only came from that endless spring in the mountains because I don't do that. Nah. The Kid wears new clothes that I didn't wash first, etc. I'm not trying to raise a child who only drinks Fiji Water. (Unless I had to.) My fear comes from the fact that I was a sick kid. I got the flu about every other month. My bout with chicken pox (where I was covered in it) overlapped with my bout with the measles. I was THAT kid. That kid who got a horrible cough because I went out at night without a jacket. About the few things giving me any kind of comfort are simple facts such as breastfeeding and thus passing on my immunities to The Kid. But, that is of little comfort because anything can happen. I'm hoping and praying that he inherited his dad's knack for avoiding illness since he escaped my flu-demic. Time will tell what side of the coin The Kid will land on.
Despite all the worry and fear consuming my life now, it's that 1% that makes it worth while. I could have an awful day at work and come home to a baby who is all smiles and laughter and my awful day is immediately forgotten. He's is a complete joy despite waking up at 3a today and deciding he just wanted to hang out. That was a first. At least he wasn't up screaming his head off or sick. It's the little things.
Welcome to Parenthood.

Detour: These 'Post-Punk-New-Wave,' Essex boys originally un-buttoned their musical career as far back as 1978, were influenced by bands like Television, Magazine and Pere Ubu, and made one hell of a commotion on stage! They built up a devoted and faithful following in Essex and East London, headlining many great gigs in their own right up to 1982 and supporting the likes of The Birthday Party, Tenpole Tudor, Zounds and The Lemon Kittens amongst others. Serious record company interest grew steadily, but despite finally signing a deal with 'Situation 2' the band did not release any material at the time. Now after 30 years some of the band's finest songs that have all been recovered from long lost cassettes have all been restored to their former glory.
