MDC welcomes Victorian Government rail announcement
Mildura Development Corporation (MDC) is very pleased to welcome the fantastic announcement at Yelta today by Premier, the Hon. Daniel Andrews MP, Minister for Regional Development, the Hon. Jaala Pulford MP, and Minister for Public Transport, the Hon. Jacinta Allen MP, that the Victorian Government will fund both the upgrade and standardisation of the Mildura rail line.
Firstly, the Victorian Government has committed an initial $30 million for the rail upgrade (stage 1), with $5 million being released immediately for this financial year and $25 million being released for the next financial year.
Secondly, the Premier also gave a commitment to standardise the Mildura rail line under the Murray Basin Rail Project (stage 2), with the aim to complete this within the Government's first term (by 2018). The final route for standardisation will be determined and then announced in coming months following the release of GHD's Business Case in March 2015 and further input from local stakeholders including MDC.
MDC CEO, Chris Crewther, applauded the Victorian Government's announcement, stating: "The Murray Basin Rail Project will be transformative for the Mildura region and result not only in increased freight productivity, but also growth in industry, jobs and exports from the region, from Mildura right down to Geelong and Portland."
"Importantly, today's announcement by the Victorian Government also recognises the significant grass-roots rail advocacy that has been undertaken by various groups and individuals over many years. We are very excited about this project going ahead and thank the Victorian Government for their funding commitment today".
Following this announcement, MDC will continue to advocate on the best route for standardisation, with further detailed information already having been sent through to the Minister for Regional Development, the Hon. Jaala Pulford MP, yesterday on the preferred route for standardisation, being a combination between option 3 and option 4 presented in GHD's initial project report released July 2014.
This route would include the Mildura line from Yelta to Geelong, the Sea Lake and Manangatang lines, the Ouyen-Murrayville line, and the upgrade of the standard gauge line between Ararat and Maryborough, with at least 23 tonne axle loading being preferred along the main Mildura line and on the Sea Lake and Manangatang lines.
This combination route is also supported by groups including the Rail Freight Alliance, Central Murray Regional Transport Forum (made up of seven Councils), Wakefield Transport Group and others.
MDC will individually and collectively continue to advocate to ensure this is the chosen route for standardisation and once again congratulates the Victorian Government on their important announcement today.

MDC welcomes enhancements to irrigation modernisation
Mildura Development Corporation (MDC) welcomes the announcement yesterday of further enhancements to irrigation modernisation in the Mildura region.
MDC CEO, Chris Crewther, said that
"We particularly welcome further enhancements to irrigation modernisation under the Sunraysia Modernisation Project.
"Mildura Development Corporation developed the original Sunraysia Modernisation Project Business Case – from which followed the initial $103 million funding announcement by the Federal Government – and had recommended the extension of 365-day service to all of K Area West, so we are pleased that further construction of pipelines will now occur to facilitate 365-day access for both this area along with T Area South."
These enhancements will be achieved under the current $103 million budget for the Sunraysia Modernisation Project and, as a result, year round access to irrigation water will be extended to many more irrigators in Mildura South.
Chair of MDC, Jenny Grigg, added that
"From a development perspective, these irrigation enhancements will greatly assist irrigators to the south and east of the Benetook Dam storages in terms of production capability, certainty, profitability and growth prospects"
MDC thanks the Federal Government for its commitment to these enhancements and will continue to work to see further infrastructure development opportunities to assist irrigators into the future.
MDC Launches Online Community Profile
Mildura Development Corporation (MDC) is pleased to launch its online Community Profile for the Mildura-Wentworth region, which is useful resource containing detailed demographic statistics relating to the region and the community.
CEO of MDC, Chris Crewther, noted that the online Community Profile is an important community resource, stating that:
"The website will be a terrific resource for people across the region and beyond, including students, teachers and those in work. It serves to bring all of the important data relating to our community into one easily accessible place."
The website features statistics on population, education, employment, personal income, housing, family characteristics and citizen migration. The data is set out in easily readable tables and charts, with a number of different options for the user, allowing ease-of-use for people of all levels of computer literacy.
"The content of the website not only provides a great overview of the community, but also specific information on the nature and structure of the region as a whole. For example, it outlines the prevalence of different religious communities, housing statistics, and even the amount of rent people are paying, all of which can be compared to Victorian and New South Wales State averages,"
said Mr Crewther.
MDC is confident that any person seeking information on the region will find the website useful and accessible, with the website being updated with the latest available statistics on a constant basis. Users can also continue to access MDC's online Economic Profile as well through the same website. The website can be accessed through the following link:

The Liverpool boys tennis team improved to 3-3 on the season when it put together a 5-2 win over Cortland in non-league play on Wednesday afternoon.

CommuniCare to begin construction of Woodland health center
- Kathy Robertson
- Senior Staff Writer- Sacramento Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn | Google+
It has been a long time coming, but CommuniCare Health Centers will start construction on a $9.3 million health center in Woodland next week.
Construction is expected to take about 10 months, with move-in projected for late 2013 or early 2014.
The nonprofit will consolidate its Peterson clinic with its John H. Jones Community Clinic into the new, 21,000-square-foot clinic as it prepares to offer integrated services to more low-income Woodland residents in one convenient downtown location.
CommuniCare bought the land at 215 West Beamer Street almost two years ago. The lot is the former site of Yolo County's Health Department and Department of Drug, Alcohol and Mental Health. The buildings were closed and demolished in 2008.
The county sold the 4.32-acre site as surplus property to CommuniCare in March 2011. The price: $282,268. Plans have been in the works ever since, but CommuniCare is a federally qualified health center and it took a while to get the feds to sign off on the project.
A federal grant of $5 million was approved last May. The balance will come from other sources, including a local fund-raising goal of $3 million. A bank loan and building permit were approved in October.
"We've been ready locally to begin construction, but we needed go ahead from the federal government," CEO Robin Affrime said. "It's exciting to start construction and begin to see the new facility we've needed for a long time."
CommuniCare served 26,514 patients in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the last data available. That's up from 23,280 patients in fiscal 2010.
The nonprofit operates clinics in Davis and West Sacramento in addition to the two clinics in Woodland and a dental clinic in Esparto. CommuniCare reported net income of $851,123 on revenue of almost $16.6 million in fiscal 2012.
Construction partners have been lined up for some time. They include Hibser Yamauchi Architects Inc., Unger Construction Co., Cunningham Engineering and Wallace Kuhl & Associates.
Kathy Robertson covers health care, law and lobbying, labor, workplace issues and immigration for the Sacramento Business Journal.

All of Milwaukees festivals are held here. Great place for music and just plain fun. Right by Lake Michigan its the best spot for fun. Summerfest is here also and it has great food and great music
This is one event I like ...Mainly because the weather is usually awesome this time of year, the food is awesome , the people seem very under control for the size of crowd and polite . The music I think really sucks. a bunch of washed up bands only the drunk appreciate...no good R&B or Country bands ...but all in...
It's a summer-long string of festivals, the best of which is Summerfest. Food and music extravaganza. There's no reason NOT to go. I haven't been to many of the cultural festivals, but if you're going to check one out, make it Irish Fest. The dance and music are great. The major downsides to Summerfest are: #1, the massive crowds at...
This is the home for Summerfest, the biggest music festival in the world, presented the last couple of weeks in June and first week in July every year. Also the home of numerous ethnic festivals on weekends throughout the summer including such festivals as Germanfest, Festa Italiana, Irish Fest, Polich Fest, and more. Definitely worth a visit when in Milwaukee.
Henry Maier Festival Park is named after a former Milwaukee Mayer who many years ago had a great vision. The Summerfest grounds blossomed from muddy fields to a world renowned entertainment destination where top musical acts and food of every possible origination all reside on the same grounds. It possesses a heartbeat all it's own with variety in every direction...
Summerfest is the culmination of the music/food/fun time. Plus the grounds is also host to a different ethnic festival every weekend throughout the summer, such as Fiesta Mexicana, Irish Fest, African World Festival, Germanfest & many more.
Everyone needs to experience Summerfest at Maier Festival park once in their lives. I have been to Ravinia, New Orleans Jazz Festival and music festivals in California. None can compete with this wonderful park with over 19 music stages and whatever food you desire. Located along Lake Michigan with easy access from anywhere. Great people watching and comfortable. This is...
Summerfest is THE music festival. Eleven days. Eight hundred bands. Around 800000 visitors. Nothing compares. I love being able to see the hottest new up and coming bands, and great classic bands all in the same day for less than $20. Doesn't get better than that.
This is a great park for many events. It has several concert stages with a very beautiful open air stage that looked out on Lake Michigan behind the band. Of course this park is nothing without the festivals that seemed to be every week of the summer. We attended several days of Summerfest, German Fest, Irish Fest and the Frommes...
I like the way they are always adding and updating the festival grounds. I also appreciate the different types of music they have represented. Lots of different food. They do a good job at keeping things clean.

Recently reports in the news shows how insulin therapy may be a treatment for Alzheimer's. Basically, a low dose of insulin has been found to suppress the expression in the blood of four precursor proteins involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease, according to research by University at Buffalo endocrinologists. Paresh Dandona, MD, PhD, University at Buffalo is a senior author on the study.
I am very interested in insulin therapy for Addi and Cassi and I have been looking into this along with a drug called Rosiglitazone. I wonder if I am already doing insulin therapy by giving the twins the sugar compound cyclodextrin into their bodies and brains? I think I'll email Paresh Dandona about it.
Addi and Cassi have major disruption in glucose metabolism in their brains. Dr. Harry Chugani and his team at Children's Hospital of Michigan discovered this a few years ago in the twins and it is spreading out of control based on our last PET scan. Dr. Chugani and team are publishing a paper about the glucose metabolism PET based brain biomarker in Niemann Pick Type C disease.
For over a year, I have been looking into whether or not hydroxy-propyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPBCD) might have some sort of effect on insulin and glucose metabolism in the body and brain.
I found these very interesting references:
I have been asking our researchers to see if they can conduct microPET on the Niemann Pick Type C mice to see if they can find a hypometabolism issue in the brains of the mice like they find in my identical twins. If found, researchers could give the NPC mice the cyclodextrin and test as to whether or not it has an effect on insulin and glucose metabolism in the brain. If so, this could be a very important finding that could bolster the University at Buffalo's work.
Also, one of the things I find really interesting is there is a rare disease called Ataxia – telangiectasia that I think provides further clues to neurodegeneration. In Ataxia – telangiectasia, there are issues with glucose and insulin receptors: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/651946
Both Niemann Pick Type C and Ataxia – telangiectasia there is massive loss of Purkinje cells in the brain loss of Purkinje cells in one of the first signs in NPC disease. Why the massive loss of Purkinje neurons in Niemann Pick Type C and Ataxia – telangiectasia? What is the connection point causing loss of Purkinje neurons? I think it might be glucose metabolism or insulin utilization.
Given the glucose metabolism issue we have found in Addi and Cassi's brains and the ataxia which is one of the first symptoms of the disease, maybe glucose metabolism and insulin issues are a core issue in NPC? I read that the cerebellum is largely fueled by glucose and the cerebellum is where Purkinje neurons are located!
Steve Walkley's work shows that cyclodextrin rescues Purkinje neurons in the NPC mouse model – could it be acting on glucose metabolism or insulin? Could cyclodextrin rescue Purkinje cells in Ataxia – telangiectasia?

Kanye West On The Offensive Once Again. Offensive Lyrics That Is
Once again, West spoke and people were offended. This time, Parkinson's sufferers were on his radar
Picture: Kanye West and Kim Kardashian - The 32 year old was not due to give birth until July (13) but reports suggest both...
Kanye West might be on top of the world right now, what with him becoming a father and his sixth studio album Yeezus getting snatched off the shelves (ok, off online retailers, whaterver) at excessive speeds, but he seems to have gotten himself into quite an awkward situation with some of his lyrics. The line "A monster about to come alive again / Soon as I pull up and park the Benz / We get this b**** shaking like Parkinson's." has gotten a UK charity, dealing with sufferers from Parkinson's disease, quite riled up.
Parkinson's UK Chief Executive Steve Ford has criticised the rapper over his 'On Sight' lyrics, saying that West has "shown an inexcusable level of stupidity and cruelty towards people living with an incurable condition".
He added, via the Mirror: "Life with Parkinson's is difficult enough without becoming fodder for insensitive celebrities who should know better, looking for their next big hit. People with Parkinson's have to cope with intolerable social discrimination on a daily basis - often to the point where they are afraid to go out in public - and this sort of thoughtless, callous comment can only serve to make things worse."
Apparently, even when Kanye tries to be mature and grow with his musical direction, trouble seems to stick to him like the paps do to Kim Kardashian. And the bit that makes this story painfully ironic – one of Kanye's biggest inspirations, boxer Muhammed Ali, is a longtime Parkinson's sufferer and has been battling the disease for over 30 years.
If you thought this kind of news would cease once Kanye became a dad...
You were wrong.

I applied through college or university. The process took 7+ weeks – interviewed at Progressive Business Publications in November 2013.Interview Details
Contacted in late October about coming in for interview. Set up interview for early November. Interview lasted an hour, before being moved to another interview for another hour-long question session. Three individuals I interviewed for were nice, interesting people who worked at Progressive Business Publications to support their real writing passions. Deep looks of longing and heavy sighs complemented my questions of how much they enjoyed their time spent at PBP. Nobody works here for the betterment of the company.
After this initial interview, I spent three weeks working on a 200-word assignment. This was not due to my own editing process, but because of the time PBP spent critiquing the assignment and interviewing candidates. I realize the vetting process must be thorough, but three weeks to critique a 200 word assignment is an unfair and unprofessional way to string along prospective employees. I met the standards PBP required for the assignment and scheduled another interview for a week prior to Thanksgiving.
At this final interview, I was asked why I wanted to work at PBP and why my background in journalism met their standards. I gave the "correct" answers and hate myself for it. I spoke of "great reputations" and "charismatic employees" when, in reality, the past month of waiting and critiquing allowed for extensive Googling and research on PBP.
Please, for your sanity and morals, Google "PBP scam." A world of F's and complaints from the BBB, Ripoff Report and consumer affairs awaits you.

Tom Devine, Government Accountability Project Legal Director and '80 alum, was quoted in The Washington Post on the new film, "War on Whistleblowers: Free Press and the National Security State."
"There's a schizophrenia within the administration," said Tom Devine. "It's been Obama versus Obama on whistleblower policy. Until recently, there was a virtual free-speech advocacy for whistleblower job rights that's unprecedented, more than any other president in history.
"At the same time," Devine added, "he has willingly allowed the Justice Department to prosecute whistleblowers on tenuous grounds."

'SNL' Promos: Melissa McCarthy Pitches New Super Bowl Names (Video)
The actress, who heads back to Studio 8H for the third time during Super Bowl weekend, also falls for an Olympics-sized scam.
Melissa McCarthy returns for a third time to Saturday Night Live -- with the Super Bowl and the Olympics the topics of the hour.
Because the Super Bowl isn't being broadcast on NBC (it's on Fox this year), the Mike & Molly star was forced to use NBC's pre-approved alternative terms for the big game. Rooting for the Seattle Seahawks or the Denver Broncos in the Live Ball War: The Game? Curious how the teams will fare in the cold weather during the Televised Man Battle With Ball? McCarthy and SNL regular Kenan Thompson seem to think one of these terms will catch on.
STORY: Colin Jost Named New 'SNL' Weekend Update Co-Anchor
In another promo, McCarthy did her Sochi Winter Olympics due diligence (NBC begins coverage Feb. 6) with a joke about the Olympic torch. An out-of-breath McCarthy showed off the torch (really just a bunch of newspapers) someone had scammed her into buying -- complete with a lighter! "First of all, I know because I'm a big Olympian fan and I think somewhere on here he said it says 'Olympic Torch Certified.' And he gave me a little card," McCarthy says. Thompson breaks the news that it's just regular newspaper. "Yeah, Olympic newspaper -- and I got it," McCarthy excitedly says. "I guess I start running?"
PHOTOS: From Live TV to the Big Screen: 12 'SNL' Sketches Made Into Movies
Other promos highlighted McCarthy's third time as host, but things got violent when the actress believed Thompson alluded to her first two SNL stints as being substandard; a song riff on Imagine Dragons' name; and a not-so-impressive McCarthy-Thompson dance-off.
Grammy-winning rock band Imagine Dragons, who performed with Kendrick Lamar at the Jan. 26 awards show, is this week's musical guest. This weekend's episode also marks "Weekend Update" co-anchor Seth Meyers' last episode before he debuts on Late Night on Feb. 24.
Saturday Night Live airs Saturday at 11:30 p.m. PT/ET on NBC.

Our vision is to transform the underutilized land below Miami's MetroRail, from the Miami River to Dadeland South Station, into an iconic linear park, world-class urban trail and living art destination.
The Underline will connect communities, improve pedestrian and bicyclist safety, create over a hundred acres of new green space with restored natural habitats, encourage a healthy lifestyle, provide an easily accessible place to exercise, create a mobility corridor that integrates transit, car, biking and walking, provide a 10-mile canvas for artistic expression, attract development along US1, and generate significant economic impact.

The 10-mile Underline will be Miami-Dade County's first mobility corridor integrating all modes of transit. The Underline will connect to downtown on the north and to the proposed Ludlam Trail and the existing South Dade Trail on the south. This map shows many other proposed connections.
The Underline will be the spine of this future network of 250 miles of trails.
University of Miami School of Architecture
The University of Miami School of Architecture devoted a Spring 2014 studio class of ten students to create a concept plan for The Underline. The class was directed by Professor Rocco Ceo and assisted by Arquitectonica's Raymond Fort. Each student was assigned a 1-mile segment of The Underline's 10 miles.
Master Plan
Through a competitive process, James Corner Field Operations of New York City was selected to create the master plan for The Underline 10 mile linear park and urban trail. After substantial community engagement, we will proceed with design plans and secure funding for construction. Join now to become a Friend of The Underline so we can keep you up-to-date during the design process.
Friends of The Underline is a nonprofit organization with 501(c)3 status.
We share the common goal of making our community more connected while growing our future economic base.
We have partnered with the Miami-Dade County Parks and Recreation and Miami-Dade County Transit departments. Our committee includes preeminent architects, designers, urban planners, biking advocates, marketing experts, legal and accounting professionals, real estate developers, and more.
Be a Friend
Join now to be a Friend of The Underline to get updates on events and other important news.
No. The University of Miami School of Architecture generously offered university resources for the development of a conceptual plan for the initiative. We have engaged a professional design team for master planning of the 10 miles and detailed plans for the Brickell area and an additional site.
Future construction documents, construction and project management will require professional teams.
Projects with similar vision and scope have taken a decade to complete. You can help us build it in less time by supporting the initiative and donating to the cause www.theunderline.org
We are fully-funded for our master planning. Funders include the cities of Miami, Coral Gables, and South Miam and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, the Miami Foundation, the Health Foundation of South Florida and the Mitchell Wolfson Foundation.
We are currently seeking funding from both the public and private sectors for construction and ongoing maintenance.
One of our top priorities is getting the community involved. Please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com with your design comments.
User safety is one of our biggest concerns. Currently the MPath, the bike path underneath MetroRail, has limited lighting or amenities, and needs wider and safer crosswalks. All of these, and other safety issues, are being addressed.

Friends of the Underline is a 501C3 non-profit organization. Your donations are tax-deductible and will be used to help us advocate and promote The Underline and administrate our organization. We really appreciate your support.

Motion to Dismiss Format for the State of Tennessee document sample
Davidson-S-Resp-DM088 IN THE CRIMINAL COURT FOR KNOX COUNTY, TENNESSEE DIVISION I STATE OF TENNESSEE ) ) v. ) No. 86216 B ) LEMARCUS DAVIDSON, ) ALIAS ) STATE'S RESPONSE TO MOTION TO DISMISS INDICTMENT FOR VIOLATION OF MR. DAVIDSON'S CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS AS A RESULT OF THE INTERCEPTION OF ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGED COMMUNICATIONS Comes now the State of Tennessee, by and through the District Attorney General for the Sixth Judicial District, in response to the Defendant's Motion to Dismiss Indictment For Violation of Mr. Davidson's Constitutional Rights as a Result of the Interception of Attorney- Client Privileged Communications and says the motion should be denied. The Defendant argues that the interception of a letter to his attorney in this case is a per se violation of his constitutional rights requiring automatic dismissal of the indictment without regard to actual prejudice. The State respectfully submits that prejudice cannot be presumed in this context. In fact, the evidence will demonstrate that the Defendant has suffered no prejudice. While the State is mindful of the Court's authority to fashion an appropriate remedy under the circumstances, dismissal of the indictment would be contrary to both applicable law and the need to preserve society's interest in the administration of criminal justice. 1. Anticipated Proof The evidence will demonstrate that the Defendant has not suffered material prejudice in this case. The proof will show that on or about April 23, 2008, officers with the Knox County Sheriff's Department pulled one incoming and three outgoing letters for Lemaricus Davidson for 1 Davidson-S-Resp-DM088 closer inspection. The letters were copied and made available shortly thereafter to the Knox County District Attorney General's Office. At the time, neither the Knox County Sheriff's Department nor the District Attorney's office were aware that a letter addressed to Defendant Davidson's attorney had been intercepted. The District Attorney's Office electronically scanned the letter into digital format along with many other letters to or from Defendant Davidson, Co-Defendant George Thomas, Co- Defendant Letalvis Cobbins , and Co-Defendant Vanessa Coleman. These scanned letters were then provided to counsel for Defendant Davidson on June 28, 2008. No employees of the District Attorney's Office reviewed the letters at the time they were scanned. In 2009, an employee of the District Attorney's Office was asked to review all of the intercepted mail for Defendant Davidson in order to determine if the mail contained any statements by Defendant Davidson that might be introduced at trial. The employee was asked to tab any potentially useful statements for further review by the prosecutors assigned to this case. One page of the letter to defense counsel now in question was tabbed. Undersigned counsel reviewed the tabbed pages from all of Defendant Davidson's inmate letters and determined the tabbed portions contained no information of benefit to the State. Undersigned counsel was not aware during this review that any tabbed portions came from a letter addressed to defense counsel. No additional evidence was directly or indirectly obtained as a result of the State's review of the letters. The State's trial strategy was not altered in any way. Because the tabbed portion of the letter in question contained no useful information, undersigned counsel did not check to see to whom the letter was addressed. The State subsequently notified counsel for Defendant Davidson that it would not seek to introduce any of his letters at trial. 2 Davidson-S-Resp-DM088 The State was not made aware that a letter to defense counsel had been intercepted until October 7, 2009 during a meeting with a defense counsel. At that meeting, defense counsel furnished a copy of the letter to the undersigned prosecutor and Assistant District Attorney General Takisha Fitzgerald. The contents of the letter were not reviewed by either prosecutor at the meeting and have not been reviewed since the meeting. Instead, the letter furnished by defense counsel and the original copy furnished to the District Attorney's Office by KCSO were sealed without further review. 2. Communication must have been made with intention of confidentiality. Before the Court determines that a constitutional violation has occurred, the Court should first determine whether the intercepted communication contained privileged information. Bryan v. State, 848 S.W.2d 72, 80 (Tenn. Crim. App. 1992). For the attorney-client privilege to apply, the defendant has the burden of showing that the communication was made in the confidence of the attorney-client relationship. Id. That is, not only must the communication have occurred pursuant to the attorney-client relationship, it must have been made with the intention of confidentiality. Id. (citing Hazlett v. Bryant, 241 S.W.2d 121, 124 (1951)). If it was the defendant's intention that the substance of the communication be disclosed to others, the attorney-client privilege does not come into play. Id. While it is certainly likely that the letter contained privileged information given to whom it was addressed, the State is not presently aware of the contents or the purpose of the letter. If the Court reviews the letter and determines that it does not contain privileged information or that it was intended for a third party outside the attorney-client relationship, no constitutional violation has occurred. See id. 3 Davidson-S-Resp-DM088 3. Defendant must demonstrate actual prejudice. The Defendant cites United States v. Levy, 577 F.2d 200 (3d. Cir. 1978) for the proposition that no showing of prejudice is necessary when the government has improperly interfered in the attorney-client relationship. However, the United States Supreme Court has rejected this categorical approach and has instructed courts to determine whether actual prejudice has occurred. See United States v. Morrison, 449 U.S. 361, 366 (U.S. 1981)(Absent demonstrable prejudice, or substantial threat thereof, dismissal of the indictment is plainly inappropriate, even though the violation of the attorney-client relationship may have been deliberate); Weatherford v. Bursey, 429 U.S. 545, 552 (U.S. 1977)("[W]hen conversations with counsel have been overheard, the constitutionality of the conviction depends on whether the overheard conversations have produced, directly or indirectly, any of the evidence offered at trial.); Hoffa v. United States, 385 U.S. 293, 309 (U.S. 1966)(Where the government's evidence is not the result of illegal government intrusion into the attorney-client relationship, government not barred from prosecution.") The Sixth Circuit has likewise adopted the approach that prejudice must be established before an alleged interference of the attorney-client relationship becomes actionable. See Sinclair v. Schriber, 916 F.2d 1109, 1112 (6th Cir. 1990) ("In Weatherford, the Supreme Court held that in order to establish a violation of the Sixth Amendment right to counsel ensuing from government surveillance, a claimant must not only show that conversations with an attorney were surreptitiously monitored, but must also show that the information gained was used to prejudice the claimant's defense in his criminal trial."). Moreover, a showing of prejudice is required even where there is an intentional intrusion by the government into the attorney-client relationship. United States v. Moses, 2009 U.S. App. LEXIS 15088 (6th Cir. Mich. 2009)(citing 4 Davidson-S-Resp-DM088 United States v. Steele, 727 F.2d 580, 586 (6th Cir. 1984). See also, Bishop v. Rose, 701 F.2d 1150, 1156-57 (6th Cir. 1983)(Defendants are entitled to relief in connection with the prosecution's improper use of such protected attorney-client information only if prejudice is shown); United States v. Jones, 766 F.2d 994, 1001 (6th Cir. 1985) (same); United States v. Griffith, 756 F.2d 1244, 1250 (6th Cir. 1985) (same); United States v. Clark, 319 Fed. Appx. 395, 400 (6th Cir. Ohio 2009)(same). In this case, the Court may properly undertake to ascertain the extent of the State's intrusion into the attorney-client relationship and the resultant prejudice to the Defendant's. See United States v. Clark, 319 Fed. Appx. 395, 401 (6th Cir. Ohio 2009)(Trial court affirmed after it conducted review of intercepted privileged material and determined no prejudice had occurred). Once the circumstances in this case is reviewed, the State is confident no resultant prejudice will be established. None of the State's evidence in this case was directly or indirectly obtained as a result of reviewing the Defendant's letter to defense counsel. Indeed, virtually all of the State's evidence was obtained prior to the interception of the letter on April 23, 2008. Nor has the State's trial strategy been altered in any way as the result of the letter in question. Undersigned counsel was not aware that legal mail had been intercepted until his October 7, 2009 meeting with defense counsel. Subsequently, the letter was sealed without being reviewed. In short, the proof will not demonstrate prejudice. Absent demonstrable prejudice, the Defendant's proposed remedy of dismissing the indictment should not be granted. 4. Dismissal of presentment is inappropriate. While the State recognizes the Court may fashion remedies for intrusions into the attorney-client relationship, dismissal of the presentment in this case would be highly 5 Davidson-S-Resp-DM088 inappropriate under the circumstances. Tennessee appellate have faced far more egregious intrusions into the attorney-client privilege than the Court faces in this case. Despite the serious intrusions, these Courts have consistently found that dismissal of the prosecution would be highly inappropriate given the importance of preserving society's interest in the administration of justice. The consistent approach has been to deny the prosecution the fruits of its transgression. For example, in State v. Sullivan, 2005 Tenn. Crim. App. LEXIS 59 (Tenn. Crim. App. Jan. 27, 2005), the State intercepted a conversation between a defendant and his attorney by intentionally increasing the volume of the audio component of a video camera located above the defendant and his attorney at the jail. Id. The prosecutors sought to use the conversation for impeachment purposes if the defendant testified. Id. Rather than order dismissal of the prosecution, the Sullivan court ordered that the conversation not be used for any purpose at trial. Id. See also State v. Turner, 713 S.W.2d 327, 330 (Tenn. Crim. App. 1986)("Remedies for the unconstitutional deprivation of the right to counsel should be tailored to the injury suffered. Rarely, however, would the remedy be dismissal of the indictment. In addition, the remedy should not unnecessarily infringe on competing interests."). Federal courts have likewise consistently refused to grant the extreme remedy of dismissal of the prosecution in cases of intrusions into the attorney-client relationship. See Black v. United States, 385 U.S. 26 (1966)(New trial ordered but defendant's request for a dismissal of the indictment denied); O'Brien v. United States, 386 U.S. 345 (1967)(Where law enforcement officers improperly overheard pretrial conversations between a defendant and his lawyer but dismissal of the indictment not ordered); United States v. Morrison, 449 U.S. 361, 367 (U.S. 1981)(Dismissal of indictment not sufficiently tailored remedy even though law enforcement met two times with a defendant in an attempt to gain her cooperation knowing she was represented by counsel.); 6 Davidson-S-Resp-DM088 Bishop v. Rose, 701 F.2d 1150, 1157 (6th Cir. Tenn. 1983)(Dismissal of indictment not required even though government used 14 page privileged document to impeach a defendant at trial).

Yep, a long-awaited update to the tablet Market is definitely in full effect, and it looks nearly identical to the phone Market. This is no coincidence, either-- remember the minor update that El Goog pushed to phones last week? It turns out that is the same exact version that's being pushed to the XOOM. Yeah, that means you can simply download the 3.1.5 apk and install it on your tablet to get the new Market. That's all kinds of win.

Come Again by Erica Rivera is now available from Thought Catalog Books.
The novel follows Eve Roberg, a 29-year-old writer ready to end her dry spell. In the 13th month of a sex detox, Eve accepts a date—and ends up in bed—with one of her readers, an alluring Norwegian attorney named Erik Lunden.
Disguised under a pseudonym, Lunden becomes Eve's favorite fodder for her confessional blog. Hits soar as the relationship unfolds online in real time—but can love survive, much less thrive, under the scrutiny of fans and foes alike?
Come Again is a smart, sexy, edgy story about the perils of dating in the digital age, set in the scandalous city of Minneapolis.
Come Again is Rivera's third book. Penguin published her memoir Insatiable: a young mother's struggle with anorexia in hardcover on its Berkley imprint in 2009. Rivera's second memoir, Man Eater: seductive stories and mouthwatering meals, followed in 2011 as an XOXO e-book.

My Violet Setup
Plants are under six 40 watt T-12 fixtures with one grolux wide spectrum type and one 5000K tube in each fixture at 36 inches above the plant tops. They are in either Oyama pots or Swift Moistrite planters in 1/2 Promix and 1/2 perlite.
Decided I had better post before the heat comes on and they melt!
I want to show your plants on the Russian African Violets web sites fialki.ru and fialki.su because it's very nice an interesting. It's not commercial, just forum like this. If you don't mind maybe you can send me your pictures to my personal e-mail address, please. Let me know.
Beautiful setup and gorgeous violets. I love your setup. What are you feeding them, and how much, how often to get them all blooming at the same time. Do you have others that are not blooming? Is this just your 'show off' shelf. It's quite awesome. I wish mine would start to bloom. I think it's time jto re-pot and give them a boost. LOL
Polina - Please click on my name or go to my page to send me an email.
Ima_digger - I don't feed anything special, just 1/4 tsp per gallon of whatever is on hand. You can see some of the non-flowering plants in the photo above to the right, so not all bloom at the same time!

Hello all.
I don't think that it's too complicated of a question, but how important do you feel that a clear lineage is to the legitimacy of your karate or any martial art? It seems like everybody and their brother takes the time to back their school/club to a name that everybody will recoginize. But as long as your art is effective outside the dojo and is teachable inside, then should it really matter?

I proposed this project to Iain some months ago since the technique features often in Bunkai
There's a lot of people who practise karate, but sadly enough not all of them have a profound interest in the practical application of karate.
It would be nice to have some kind of overview of other bunkai enthousiasts that are in the same area as you. That way you could meet up for training with other people from other clubs, with the same interests.
I've just became aware of these new Mr Bean martial arts spoofs! I like them :-)

Microsoft is looking for a few federal agencies to stress-test the government-centric cloud platform the company unveiled last fall.
The software giant wants agencies to test its Azure for Government cloud hosting platform as the offering awaits formal FedRAMP authorizations. Azure for Government, said Microsoft Chief Security Officer for Federal Mark Williams, is aimed at civilian and defense agencies looking to boost efficiency -- reducing the number of data centers and shortening patch intervals, for example -- without compromising security.
Azure for Government does not yet have FedRAMP authority to operate (ATO), unlike the already-approved commercial version of the platform, which took about seven months to win FedRAMP ATO from federal agencies. Williams expects about the same amount of time for Azure for Government to get an ATO.
In an October blog post, Microsoft Federal Chief Technology Advisor Susie Adams said the Azure government cloud would feature physical, network and logical isolation, with two specially-constructed data centers with logical, physical and network isolation from Azure Public Cloud.
The supporting facilities for the federal cloud, including all data, hardware, and supporting systems will be in the continental United States, with data residing on servers that contain data only from other U.S. federal, state and local government customers.
According to Williams, Azure's capabilities fit well with federal agencies' push to drive more business sense into their operations.
"It allows us to build in features that allow new capabilities to be added automatically," he said. For instance, the two to four weeks it can take to add security patch updates to more traditional systems can be added almost instantly with the platform.
Williams said Microsoft has already talked with a number of federal customers, but is still taking on agencies for the test. Those interested can contact the company at email@example.com to participate.

|Greg A. Vaughan Pathfinder Creative Director, Frog God Games
|8 people marked this as a favorite.
Howdy all!
I was just writing a short post in a nearby thread about folks who actually have the nerve/madness to run their players through the epic campaign The Slumbering Tsar Saga that Frog God Games put out a few years back, and in the process of teasing some of our upcoming stuff my short post became quite bloated. I then realized I was repeating some stuff I had put piecemeal in a few other posts here and there and thought it might be more efficient just to get it all in one place rather than answer the same questions in 9 different threads. So for those of you who have seen this for the umpteenth time, my apologies; I will commence shutting up after this/these post(s). (except to answer questions of course) ;-)
For the rest who may be interested, here is a large part of the proposed schedule of releases by Frog God Games. It is by no means complete and focuses mainly on the Kickstarters I see us doing (which we do for our larger, more-expensive-to-produce products). We try to do around 4 KS a year and then release smaller projects that we can fund with less risk in between or in concordance with those flagship releases. So without further ado:
First Quarter:
Shipment of Sword of Air and Quests of Doom Kickstarters from 2014 are our first priority.
I know Sword of Air has gone to the printers and released in pdf form for backers. The pdf for nonbackers will become available when we get the print copies back and shipped. That is also when we'll put the hard copy version of SoA up for sale for nonbackers as well. This is my understanding of the distribution schedule to get give the backers priority, but Bill can come and correct me if necessary.
Quests of Doom is either at the printers (or nearly so). I know the adventures are all done and haven't heard any panicked discussion from the rest of the FGG crew which is usually a good sign it is either printing or at least going through layout where the capable hands of Chuck Wright can bring all chaos to order. Anyway, I think this one will become available shortly after SoA and will probably be handled in a similar way as far as distribution goes. A great deal of thanks to the patience of all the backers. Between scheduling issues related to the release of 5e rules by WotC and sanity issues related to trying to corral and bring together all of the loose threads of Bill Webb's magnum opus, getting these two projects into print has been a trial and much more time consuming than we originally calculated. But we want to get them right the first time rather than send out a substandard product, so we truly appreciate the loyal backers who have patiently awaited these. You guys are the best.
However, as a result of the slowness in delivery of those two KS, we have made getting them shipped before going onto new projects a priority. As a result none of the other KS scheduled for 2015 will happen until at least one (if not both) of those have shipped to the backers. That said, assuming those begin shipping in Q1 we will do our next KS in Q1. It will be a bit less ambitious and more wallet friendly than SoA to let everyone and their holiday expenses take a bit of a breather. And that KS will be...(more to follow in next post)

Polarization effects in the 2H(3He, tp)p reaction at E = 33 MeV
ABSTRACT Triple-differential cross sections and vector analyzing powers have been measured for the 2H(3He, tp)p reaction at EHe = 32.5 MeV. Data are presented for ten pairs of lab angles in the range θt = 15°–30°, θp = 20°–55°, most of which correspond to the kinematic region in which the quasi-free 3He + n → t + p reaction with the unobserved proton as spectator is expected to be the dominant mechanism. In addition to the usual QFR maximum, most of the energy-sharing distributions of cross section exhibit a smaller maximum at lower energy along the kinematic locus in the Et, Ep plane. The analyzing power is generally negative in the vicinity of the QFR peak, but exhibits a maximum in the region between the two peaks in the cross section. This behavior is reproduced by distorted-wave impulse-approximation calculations which include coherently amplitudes corresponding to the cases in which each of the two protons in the final state are the spectator. The best agreement with the data is obtained when the radial integrals are cut off at a maximum radius of ~ 15 fm. The predicted analyzing powers show little sensitivity to the parameters of the two-body reaction, but rather depend almost entirely on the spin-orbit terms in the distorting potentials, a behavior which is similar to that observed in nucleon-transfer reactions involving a transferred orbital angular momentum of zero.

Article: Breakup of 3He with 59.6 MeV vector-polarized deuterons at dp quasifree-scattering conditions[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The 3He breakup reaction has been studied with 59.6 MeV vector-polarized deuterons at dp quasifree-scattering (QFS) conditions. In the coincidence energy spectra, large bumps corresponding to the QFS were observed. The calculation in the simple plane-wave impulse approximation (PWIA) qualitatively reproduces the energy spectra, but for the absolute cross sections, the ratio of the experimental values to the calculated values in the PWIA is about 0.27. As for the analyzing powers, the experimental values are greatly reduced as compared with the dp elastic-scattering data. The multiple-scattering effect has been investigated by a calculation taking account of the effects of double-scattering terms on the cross sections and the analyzing powers.Nuclear Physics A 06/1995; 588(2):510-520.

Article: Quasi-free inclusive processes in the two-particle splitting of tritons by deuterons with an energy of 37 MeV[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The d + t → d + d + n reaction was experimentally and theoretically investigated at an incident deuteron energy of 36.9 MeV. The experiment was performed on the U-240 isochronous cyclotron at the Institute for Nuclear Research, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. Inclusive spectra of deuterons and their angular distributions in the range of 15° ≤ θd ≤ 52° were measured. Experimental spectra and angular distributions of the final deuterons from the d + t → d + d + n reaction are satisfactorily described in a diffraction approximation that considers interaction in the final state and the correct asymptotic of the wave function of colliding nuclei. The scattered deuterons are the main contributors to the cross section (up to 70–90%), while the deuterons from tritons can be seen well only at low and high energies, at the edges of the spectra.Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences Physics 07/2011; 75(7):925-930.
