Altering Touchwiz by rooting
I've been looking to change the set up of my S3. Does anyone know how to change the buttons on Touchwiz that allow users to move from homescreen to homescreen without swipping. I want to change not only the position of the buttons but also their appearance. Anyone know how this would be possible through rooting or by any other means?
Thanks. - 11-30-2012, 04:48 PM #2

A multilevel house teeming with monsters and ghosts is one of the most terrifying places you could be. But on Pitch Black nights at 13th Floor Haunted House, things are even scarier. That's because each group enters the spooky abode with a single glow stick as their only light on a quest to find an exit from the house, which has no predetermined paths. The rest of the time 13th Floor and its companion house, Groundup, are less intense, though only slightly: gory animatronics and creepy actors lurk around all corners. The two eerie dwellings even contain a handful of spine-tingling live creatures, including rats, spiders, and dogs dressed up like giant spider-rats.
Starplex Boerne Cinemas 11 adds a little extra shine to every screening with modern technology and screening rooms. Viewers are thrust right into the action of the film by 3D projectors, and 100% digital systems create crystal-clear views of the movie industry's dazzling special effects. Luxury leather chairs—stacked stadium style—envelope audience members in plush comfort while also providing them with the unobstructed sightline required to see every production assistant's name in the credits. Other welcome amenities include automated box-office kiosks, an onsite specialty café, and an expanded concession stand that serves the theater's signature $1 hot dogs.
While some would look upon a timbered field and see possible farmland or a housing development, Shane Heffernan and Regan Land saw a potential paintball battleground. Rolling up their shirtsleeves and soliciting the help of friends with promises of cupcakes, the duo hauled in obstacles such as industrial-size cable spools, oil drums, and stacks of tires to construct five fields, including two woodsball fields and a full-size PSP course bedecked with inflatable obstacles. A picnic area offers players a place to relax between games, and Adrenaline's staff anticipate visitors' questions on a FAQ page.
While donuts and bagels are delicious morning treats, they simply can't support you like an inner tube can. After you park for free at the float starting point, you'll board the donuty vessel for an adventure of earth sights, sounds, smells, and gentle watery caresses. With river levels sitting high, you're guaranteed an abundant body of crisp water to ferry you down the river. As you float amid the big sky and shimmering water, you'll be closer to nature than you've been since your life form rose from the fertile soil and materialized on your mother figure's porch step. You can choose the route and length of your float, including an optional repeat performance of the first one-hour leg after an epic three-hour odyssey. When you've reached your endpoint, a Whitewater Sports shuttle will be waiting to transport you back to the parking and tube drop-off.

They like to take people with them on their adventures, too, teaching PADI dive courses to get fellow adventurers trained and certified. On long trips or minor outings, they take care of all the details, from helping their patrons in and out of the water, to transporting and rinsing down tanks and other cumbersome equipment. They sell all the essential gear for any trip out of their brick and mortar location, carrying such brands as Genesis, Akona, and Sherwood.

Kick and Stretch
This is tough but just wait. Is it time? How about now? Just wait.
All along I have been saying the same thing, there will be more news and that it makes sense to wait until the yield curve normalizes.
This is not to say anyone should be zero weight. I am and have been underweight for a couple of years, a touch longer actually. Of the five stocks I own as across the board holdings in the sector, two of them have been pasted, one is down 10%, one is up a little and the fifth one is actually up a lot since June (it is Canadian so the loonie has helped with this one).
That two of them are down a lot is less important than the weighting they have in the portfolio. The decision to underweight, which I have been writing about for ages, is, IMO, where lagging is spared. Further, as the two in particular are down a lot, from this point forward more selling in the sector will have less impact than three months ago as the weighting has now reduced itself.
The future work is getting back in and where to get back in. The when, for me, is clear; when the curve normalizes.
Clearly there are better ways to have navigated this but it could have been worse too.
Yeah, the picture has no relevance but it is funny and I have wanted to use it for a while.

FWIW (nothing), I dipped my toe in with a little XLF this morning. Truth be told, I don't know if this is the capitulation part or the start of a big leg down. For that reason, I've kept the bet small.
- RW said...
I've been riding SKF and SRS since May but have lightened up recently since there is so much bad news already baked into the Financials and Real Estate cake. That said I will continue to maintain a net short position in both sectors because I still see the potential for bad news; e.g., bond insurance cos and commercial re
I wish I had a dollar for every time someone has called a bottom in Financials and RE but by the same token I'm taking some extra care to avoid making these sector ETF shorts a habit; it's easy to pay attention to short positions where the carry and opportunity costs are highly visible (as they usually are) but that's not as easy to see with products like ETFs
I remain net long overall (hedged of course). - 10:34 AM
- Roger Nusbaum said...
the ambac interview was interesting. based on what he said we shoudl conclude the selling is way overdone.
prices for these assets can go down a lot without necessarily impacting solvency but even so this scares a lot of people. very few of the actual bonds will default but the risk lies with the pools of capital that own them, especially when the lever up. - 10:44 AM
- Leisa said...
Regarding these guarantors, it's worth reading the Moody's etc (yes, it will make your eyes glaze over) reports. The issue is not the stock price, but rather the capital requirement ratios relative to expected losses. Some of these (e.g. Radian) were cutting it a little close then--which would explain alot their merger that was not to be with MTG. Anyway....the risk curve has shifted to the left and has become steeper. (Losses coming sooner and are higher).
It is the shift of the loss curve and the narrowing capital cushion that is the potential problem. I'm not smart enough to know if it was overdone or not. - 11:07 AM
- Roger Nusbaum said...
these companies tend to have what sound like a good amount of capital until you see how much they are insuring, as you say.
while the numbers do seem out of whack it is also true that the bonds very very rarely default. Maybe the ratios are not so good but the lack of default needs to figure in somewhere.
Of course the Black Swan idea would probably disagree with the thought process.
To be clear I am NOT a buyer. - 11:13 AM
- RW said...
I'm expecting an oversold bounce here but strongly doubt we have seen the end of the deleveraging play or its impact on security prices; some of the problems in finance are clearly structural and repairing the system while dealing with the bad cards it has already dealt itself ('pier loans,' ABS, bldg inventory, etc.) is not going to be accomplished without some more bumps in the road IMHO.
David Einhorn provides a good summary of the main issues here ( at http://tinyurl.com/2phqel) for those who haven't had a belly-full yet ;->
Among a number of other issues Einhorn points out that bond insurers don't have nearly enough to cover in a serious default environment but in the case of municipals at least it probably doesn't matter because muni's are chronically under-rated by rating agencies (they generally behave as higher-rated bonds do WRT default rates). - 11:23 AM

But of course in order to make money on Wall Street one must buy low and sell high. And no one can guess the very bottoms or tops. To buy and hold long term maybe it's time to consider pulling the trigger on some battered stocks.
Bill Miller is doing it now:
Perhaps that's why value funds outperform. People tend to over-sell in panics and the value funds snap them up in multiple buys as bargains. Then hold them long term and collect the dividends while waiting for the inevitable. When last years bad sectors become the next good sectors. Cha-ching.
But I'm a chicken, and am going to wait a little longer for financials and home builders. I did pick a half position (half of the stock number I want) on REIT's last week though.

Guarantors redux...What would be interesting is to read the surety/bond indenture agreement. I suppose that if I were an insurer, I would be (doggedly!) searching for an angle from which to have my exposure negated or at the very least reduced. So the invocation of fraud, negligence etc (I'm not an attorney) would be foremost on my "To do" list if I were on the guarantor side. (I'm sure they are doing that now! Oh the attorneys will get so rich from this.. . .it's a field of green to be plowed and plowed!)
As the investigative journalism on any of this has been lacking, I doubt that we'll see anything credible written. Accordingly, we can just wring our hands. It would make a terrific story, though, and it is worth a follow up by some journalist should they grace your blog and read comments.
ONe of the other things to worry about with the bonds is that there were excess collateral requirements for many of these securitizations. For many, these are not being met due to increased defaults--think about it as "self-insurance" and the guarantor being on top of that. So it is there where I think there will be some room for discourse between the guarantor and whomever, and it is there that there will likely be an exit or at least a virulent argument strategy to be had.
Regarding past default rates on bonds...I think that it is an an apples to oranges to comparison. And the current oranges are frostbitten and bitter. I don't think we've seen wholesale failure of issues to meet their stated requirements for overcollateralization. AND....many of the default rates were based on historical information--and they were far below what is currently realized. - 3:08 PM

Jim Rogers is still short financials.
On bloomberg he used the terms level 3 acounting and level 3 securities interchangibly when warning about banks. I think only one of those terms are valid. He seems to belive there will be a lot of talk about level 3... starting next year.
Is this all about mark to myth? Will Banks need to come clean soon? - 4:15 PM

Fort Belvoir welcomes a new commander
Thursday - 6/21/2012, 10:03am  ET
Kathy Stewart, wtop.com
WASHINGTON - Fort Belvoir is getting ready for a changing of the guard as Col. John J. Strycula prepares to step down as commander Thursday. He will be replaced by Col. Greg Gadson, who lost both legs in Iraq in 2007.
"The change of command ceremony is a longstanding Army tradition," says Don Dees, a spokesman at the Army base.

Gadson will be the first double amputee to command an Army installation, according to Dees.

Add/View Comments (0)Response to Thomas and Baker: the structural adaptation of the brain to training
Arne May1, and Christian Gaser2
1 Department of Systems Neuroscience, University Clinic Hamburg Eppendorf (UKE), D-20246 Hamburg, Germany
2 Departments of Neurology and Psychiatry, University Hospital Jena, D-07743 Jena, Germany
In their letter to TiCS, Thomas and Baker rightly raise the question of whether training has a causal effect on adult brain structure [1], given that, to date, the question has only received an indirect answer. Although animal [2] and human data [3] strongly suggest that this is the case, the causal relationship has not yet been demonstrated [4].
Specifically, Thomas and Baker discuss three critical issues: (i) replication of findings; (ii) the reliability of voxel-based morphometry (VBM) as a method for investigating structural brain changes; and (iii) the biological nature of the changes in brain structure that are reported.
We agree with Thomas and Baker on the last issue, in that the answer is simply not yet known; hypotheses concerning the morphological cause of brain structure changes observed using VBM form a substantial part of the original review [5].
Regarding the first point, however, we note that Driemeyer et al.[6] included an analysis that reported the combined results of the data sets in Draganski et al.[7] and Driemeyer et al.[6]. A mean effect analysis was used for this purpose, which allowed the authors to combine data from different scanners. This was the first time that two independent cohorts exhibited transient gray matter increase in the exact same area. Moreover, the variability map of Thomas and Baker is not the appropriate approach to summarize the findings of different studies. Their coordinate-based method uses only the location of the peak findings, which might be misleading compared with image-based approaches that make use of the full statistic image [8]. To demonstrate the consistency and robustness of the three juggling studies by May and colleagues, we performed a conjunction analysis comprising all three studies [6,7,9]. We found a consistent cluster in all the studies (Figure 1) that corresponds to the cytoarchitectonic map of the right area hMT/V5 [10], as well as to the average peak of the area hMT [11] that was cited by Thomas and Baker. We note that this finding across different scanners and even different field strengths supports the consistency and reliability of these previous results.
It is important to note, however, that the comparison of MR morphometry studies done at different research centres is currently almost impossible owing to scanner- and site-specific properties. Moreover, at this time, there is still some ambiguity around when morphometric changes can first be detected (days or months) and how long the changes last. Also missing is the validation of studies that analyse the functional impact of these morphometric results.
In summary, we entirely agree with Thomas and Baker that the interpretation of any results using morphometric methods deserves careful consideration. As long as these central issues remain unanswered, information based on clinical-pathophysiological research remains limited. One of the great challenges in the future is the validation of morphometric methods as well as the development of reliable means that allow the pooling of data from several scanners and centres. With the application of these methods, MR-based morphometry will become an extremely powerful tool for multicentre and therapeutic trials of several brain diseases.

Trimeric autotransporters: a distinct subfamily of autotransporter proteins
Trends in Microbiology, Volume 13, Issue 5, 1 May 2005, Pages 199-205
Shane E. Cotter, Neeraj K. Surana and Joseph W. St. Geme
AbstractAutotransporter proteins are a large family of Gram-negative bacterial extracellular proteins. These proteins have a characteristic arrangement of functional domains, including an N-terminal signal peptide, an internal passenger domain, and a C-terminal translocator domain. Recent studies have identified a novel subfamily of autotransporters, defined by a short trimeric C-terminal translocator domain and known as trimeric autotransporters. In this article, we review our current knowledge of the structural and functional characteristics of trimeric autotransporters, highlighting the distinctions between this subfamily and conventional autotransporters. We speculate that trimeric autotransporters evolved to enable high-affinity multivalent adhesive interactions with host surfaces and circulating host molecules to take place.

Harris D. Bernstein
AbstractAutotransporters are bacterial outer membrane proteins that consist of a large N-terminal extracellular domain ('passenger domain') and a C-terminal β-barrel domain ('β domain'). The β domain was originally proposed to function as a channel that transports its own passenger domain across the outer membrane. Results of recent structural, biochemical and molecular genetic studies, however, have challenged this idea. Here I describe an alternative model in which translocation of the passenger domain is mediated by an exogenous factor (possibly a newly identified factor necessary for assembly of outer membrane proteins called 'Omp85/YaeT'), whereas the β domain only targets the protein to the outer membrane and serves as a membrane anchor.

The autotransporters, a family of secreted proteins from Gram-negative bacteria, possess an overall unifying structure comprising three functional domains: the amino-terminal leader sequence, the secreted mature protein (passenger domain) and a carboxy-terminal (β-) domain that forms a β-barrel pore to allow secretion of the passenger protein. Members of this family have been implicated as important or putative virulence factors in many Gram-negative pathogens.

Obama energy policy is political fantasy
March 8th, 2012, 5:30 pm by walexanderHUNTINGTON BEACH, Matt Van Gorden: When President Barack Obama suggests that new, unproven technologies can solve our energy problems, his analysis is strictly political, not scientific at all. While I'm no expert, I'd expect the smartest, most powerful man in the world today to at least try to make as much of an effort to solve our energy problems as he does to get himself re-elected.
Just answer for yourselves how paying more for energy will lead to lower prices for energy. His suggestion of using algae to produce fuel would require oil to be above $200 per barrel to be financially viable. Battery technology will be at least 10 years, probably longer, before we get a battery that will power the average car 300 miles on a charge and then be re-charged in 5 minutes, not five hours or more. Let's not even talk about the toxic waste produced from making and disposing of the batteries themselves. Wind and solar may work in the future but presently the technology is expensive and unreliable.
Tuesday the president said that lowering demand for oil would lower the price at the pump. So he's given us a choice: We can lower our personal consumption of oil or we can pay more for other energy or technology to lower demand for oil, lowering the price of gas at the pump. Hmm, who is going to be the first to go for that deal?
What the president misses in his analysis is that commodities are ruled not just by demand but also by supply. If the president were to say today that he was opening all drilling sites previously put off-limits by his current administration that alone would put the speculators at bay without a single barrel of oil making it to the surface. Combine that with a North American partnership with Canada and Mexico to produce and use the available oil in our hemisphere and we not only bring down the cost of oil but secure our supply for the next 100 years regardless of what happens in the Middle East or China. By then the other technologies would surly be viable without costing us our lifestyle in the process. [More letters on energy]

New Senior Vice President of Development Joins Habitat
AMERICUS, Ga., August 1, 2002 - Habitat for Humanity International has named Anthony DiSpigno as senior vice president of development in charge of all fund-raising and resource development at the nonprofit organization.
"Habitat is a great organization. I am a firm believer that to solve some of society's ills, you have to start with a house," said DiSpigno. "I look forward to working with many of the generous individual and corporate sponsors who will help us in our goal to eliminate poverty housing."
DiSpigno most recently served as vice president for university relations at the University of Portland and previously as a manager with E.F. Hutton in New York City. The University of Portland recently completed a campaign under DiSpigno's leadership to raise $116 million.
He will be responsible for reaching Habitat for Humanity International's five year goal of raising $500 million for the More Than Houses Campaign as well as for annual resource development to include gift planning, direct marketing, individual donations, foundation giving, cash products, corporate gifts and employee volunteer participation. In FY 2001 overall donations totaled $142 million. DiSpigno is a 1983 graduate of the University of Notre Dame, with a bachelor's degree in business administration. He also has a master's degree in business administration from the University of Portland.
Habitat Founder and President Millard Fuller said the organization is fortunate to have someone with DiSpigno's expertise on board. " I am exuberant about Tony DiSpigno joining Habitat for Humanity International as our senior vice president of development. He is very capable and full of energy and experience. This man is going to make a difference in this ministry."
DiSpigno said the best thing about Habitat is the look on a new homeowner's face when they receive the keys to their new home. He added, "Habitat volunteers see the tremendous difference they make in peoples' lives."
For more information about Habitat for Humanity International, log onto our website at http://www.habitat.org [1].
Habitat for Humanity International is an ecumenical Christian ministry dedicated to eliminating poverty housing. Founded by Millard Fuller, along with his wife, Linda, Habitat for Humanity International and its affiliates in more than 3,000 communities in 83 nations have built and sold more than 125,000 homes to partner families with no-profit, zero-interest mortgages.

In Southern Piedmont/Charlotte, NC
Media contact: Janet C. Hart, APR, CFEE, Fellow PRSA (704) 927-8617 officeCHARLOTTE, N.C. -- One of the most frequent New Year's resolutions that people make is to join a gym. If you resolve to get in shape in 2014, the Better Business Bureau has information to help you get fit, without getting taken. Each year, the BBB has received hundreds of complaints about fitness clubs and exercise programs. The most common complaints that consumers have focus on two areas: contract disputes and billing issues.
"After weeks of holiday parties and big meals, many people resolve to join a gym and lose weight," said BBB President Tom Bartholomy. "Given that the New Year is the peak time for gym membership sales, the BBB encourages consumers to read the fine print before signing a fitness club contract."
While some complaints regarding billing are basic billing errors, the majority of billing complaints center on being billed after the member felt their contract had expired. Many consumers either assumed their contract would not be renewed, or filed the appropriate paper work to cancel their membership, but continued to have fees withdrawn from their bank accounts. Contract disputes vary, but typically involve disagreements over promises made by the salesperson versus what the membership actually included.
"If you are looking to join a gym, you should do your research before you sign a contract," added Bartholomy. "In the last 36 months, the BBB has received thousands of inquiries about gyms and fitness clubs."
The BBB has six steps to help you get fit without getting taken:

Pleasantly surprised!
I accidentally ordered the Balance N Highlight instead of my regular Balance N Brighten. I love Balance N Brighten as a quick foundation. It works well on my combo/oily skin. The Highlight is beautiful! Subtle, but makes my face glow. I am shocked at how much I love this. I don't do highlighters, because they just make me look greasy or highlight imperfections on my skin. This one does not.

Open Meetings (Sunshine Act)
Misconceptions about the Sunshine Act
Misconceptions about the Sunshine Act abound, Part 1
PNA's legal department receives hundreds of hotline calls each year about citizen access to official information. Every day a novel problem or question seems to arrive on our doorstep, thanks to the resourcefulness of reporters and the seemingly limitless imagination of public officials and gadflies.
On the other hand, the legal department receives many hotline questions that are distressingly familiar, particularly with respect to the Sunshine Act. Some of the questions refer to technical requirements of the Act that are difficult to remember or understand. The repetitiveness of these questions is understandable; most reporters need not commit the Act's finer points to memory.
Other questions reveal patterns of misconception about the Sunshine Act's basic requirements. Reporters who regularly cover local government meetings have probably encountered some or all of the misconceptions, which seem to have become routine in certain quarters.
For the benefit of the uninitiated, the legal department is starting a series of articles in this week's Legal Update about the most common misconceptions with regard to the Sunshine Act. And there's no better way to begin than to get the most common and insidious one of all. It's the one we call, "It wasn't a meeting, it was a (insert any other noun here)."
When an agency as defined in the Act (for example, a school board or a board of supervisors) has a prearranged gathering attended or participated in by a quorum of its members, the gathering is a meeting. You can call it a work session or a conference or getting together at the diner after the meeting or a fact-finding session, but it's nonetheless a meeting in the eyes of the law. The gathering place is a matter of complete indifference under the Sunshine Act's terms. A meeting can happen anywhere inside or outside a government building.
Meetings may or may not be open to the public. Whenever a meeting occurs for the purpose of deliberation or taking official action, it must be open to the public and all the formalities associated with a public meeting - notice, public participation, minute-taking, etc. - must be observed by the agency. Deliberation is defined in the Act as discussion for the purpose of making a decision about agency business. Official action is also a defined term, and it encompasses a broad range of activity including making recommendations or decisions, creating policy and voting.
The Act also gives agencies the authority to hold "executive sessions," which are meetings open only to agency members and, in some circumstances, other people whose presence is necessary to conduct the business of the meeting. Training programs arranged by State or Federal agencies for local agency members, called "conferences" in the Act, are also meetings that do not have to be open to the public.
Although the Act clearly defines the elements that combine to create a "meeting," our hotline calls reveal a widespread misconception that an agency may avoid the requirement of the Act by calling a gathering of its members something besides a meeting. Reporters who learn of an evening gathering at an agency member's house are told that it wasn't a meeting, it was a "pre-meeting planning session." When members meet unannounced and in private with a contractor to discuss agency building or procurement plans, they defend their action by calling the event a "discussion session" that is outside the scope of the Sunshine Act.
The definition of "meeting" is the most important element of the Sunshine Act. For that reason, it is too important to be misunderstood or dismissed with wordplay. Moreover, the definition is the foundation on which all other elements of the Act stand. In future installments of this series, we'll examine other vital parts of the Sunshine Act and the misconceptions that seem to shroud them.
--Newsroom Legal Update (November 2, 1999)
Misconceptions about the Sunshine Act abound, Part 2
Last month, Newsroom Legal Update looked at the most important defined term in the Sunshine Act, "meeting."
The Sunshine Act generally requires agencies to hold meetings open to the public whenever they take official action and conduct deliberations. However, the open meeting requirement is subject to some exceptions.
Conferences - training programs or seminars designed solely to inform agency members about their official responsibilities - may be closed to the public. Caucus and ethics committee meetings of the state House and Senate are also closed. A board of auditors does not have to open its working sessions to the public as long as the board's official action with respect to the records being audited is taken at an open meeting.
The exception that generates the most litigation and frustrates more reporters and citizens than all other exceptions combined is the executive session exception - the subject of this month's installment on misconceptions of the Sunshine Act.
The Act defines an executive session as "[a] meeting from which the public is excluded, although the agency may admit those persons necessary to carry out the purpose of the meeting."
Based on the PNA legal department's hotline calls, the greatest misconception about the executive session is that it can be invoked whenever agency members believe it would be in their best interest to resolve a matter in private. After watching some agencies at work, one could be forgiven for assuming that executive sessions are the meeting norm and open meetings are, in fact, the exception to that norm.
Fortunately, the Sunshine Act clearly establishes that the legitimate purposes of an executive session are fairly limited. First and most importantly, official action on matters discussed at an executive session must always take place at an open meeting. In other words, an executive session at which agency members take a vote, establish policy, decide agency business or make official recommendations is an unlawful meeting. Given the incidence of hotline calls regarding decisions made during executive sessions, it seems that many officials are unaware of this limitation as well as the statutory admonition that an executive session shall not be used "as a subterfuge to defeat the purposes of [the open meeting requirement]."
The other important limitation is that an executive session may be held only for the reasons stated in the Act. The Act does not give agency members the discretion to hold a meeting behind closed doors because they, the members, have some reason of their own for believing that would be best.
The next installment of this series will look at the authorized reasons for an executive session in detail and the misconceptions about those reasons.
--Newsroom Legal Update (December 14, 1999)
Misconceptions about Sunshine Act abound, Part 3
Last month's installment looked at the exceptions to the general requirement that official action and deliberations by a quorum of the members of an agency take place at an open, public meeting.
The most prominent exception to the open meeting requirement concerns the executive session, which is defined as a meeting from which the public is excluded. This month's article and the following articles will focus on misconceptions about the reasons for an executive session and the statutory requirements for holding an executive session.
The Act states unequivocally that an agency may hold an executive session for one or more of the following reasons: to discuss personnel matters, including the hiring, promotion, disciplining or dismissing of "any specific prospective public officer or employee or current public officer or employee employed or appointed by the agency," but not including filling vacancies in any elective office; to hold information, strategy and negotiation sessions related to collective bargaining agreements or arbitration; to consider the purchase or lease of real estate up to the time an option or agreement is obtained; to consult with its attorney or other professional advisor about information or strategy regarding litigation or issues as to which identifiable complaints are expected to be filed; to review and discuss agency business which, if reviewed or discussed in public, would lead to the disclosure of information recognized as confidential or privileged under law, including the initiation and conduct of investigations of possible violations of the law and quasi-judicial deliberations; and (for committees of the governing board of a state-owned, state-aided or state-related college or university or community college or the Board of Governors of the State System of Higher Education only) to discuss matters of academic admission or standings.
The first reason, commonly called the "personnel exception," is one of the two most frequently cited as justification for holding an executive session. This reason applies whenever an agency meets to discuss a personnel action (hiring, firing, promoting, etc.) regarding a specific person who is a current or prospective employee or official of the agency.
The "personnel exception" does not cover discussions that relate to a general class of public officers or employees or any other matter that does not affect a specific person or persons. For example, by its terms the Act does not authorize an agency to hold a private discussion about creating new jobs or budgeting for general personnel expenses.
Also, by virtue of a recent amendment, the Act does not apply when an agency meets to discuss the appointment of someone to fill a vacancy in an elective office. When, for example, a township board of supervisors meets to discuss the selection of someone to fill a mid-term vacancy on the board, it may not hold an executive session under the "personnel exception."
The public officer or employee who is the subject of discussion has the right to request in writing that the matter be discussed at an open meeting. Although the Act does not expressly say so, it implies that the agency should defer to the officer's or employee's preference for an open meeting.
Some agencies, citing liability or individual privacy concerns, have denied a request for open meeting discussion, but the courts have not definitively ruled on their authority to do so. However, the Act does state that an agency shall not discuss a personnel matter in executive session if that serves to deny any public officer or employee the due process rights granted by law.
The Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court has ruled that the "personnel exception" does not apply when an agency meets to discuss an independent contractor or consultant. Such persons, the court said, are not "appointed by the agency" in the sense that the legislature intended.
Therefore, the "personnel exception" does not permit an agency to meet in executive session to discuss the engagement of an independent contractor, or the termination or extension of an independent contractor's agreement.
Somewhat related to the "personnel exception" is the Act's provision for information, strategy and negotiation sessions related to labor relations. The courts have said that the Act does not require an agency to negotiate a labor contract in public session.
Therefore, an agency may meet in executive session to receive information and conduct discussions about the negotiation of a collective bargaining agreement with its employees. The exception also applies when an agency meets to hold discussions regarding a union grievance or labor relations arbitration.
At the conclusion of this installment, it is particularly important to recall a point touched on throughout this series on the Sunshine Act: An agency may not, under any circumstances, vote or take any other form of official action in an executive session. In the context of "personnel exception" cases, the courts have repeatedly enforced this point of law. For example, a school board's executive session vote to increase its superintendent's salary was declared illegal by the Commonwealth Court.
The same court has said that while an agency may meet in executive session to discuss and narrow the field of candidates for a specific job, it must meet in public to decide which candidate to hire or appoint. The court has struck down an employee promotion decision that an agency discussed and then voted on in executive session. In regard to both the personnel and labor relations matters the principle is equally valid that discussion and only discussion is authorized at an executive session.

Misconceptions about Sunshine Act abound, Part 4
In last month's installment, we began to look at the subject of executive sessions. This month, we'll continue to look at the statutory grounds for holding an executive session.
Based on PNA's experience, after personnel matters, agencies most often cite litigation or anticipated litigation as justification for an executive session.
The Sunshine Act states that an agency may meet in executive session to consult with its attorney or other professional advisor regarding litigation or issues as to which identifiable complaints are expected to be filed. The courts have held that an agency which is the defendant in a lawsuit related to a services contract may meet with its lawyer in executive session to discuss the allegations of the plaintiff's complaint.
In regard to the "litigation exception," the authorized purpose of an executive session is for the agency members to have a discussion with their lawyer or another professional advisor. Any official action resulting from the discussion or otherwise related to the lawsuit must occur at a meeting open to the public.
One court held that an agency violated the Sunshine Act when it met in executive session to discuss the filing of litigation, and ended the meeting by voting to take that action. The court ruled that the agency should have convened in open session to conduct the vote on the filing of its lawsuit.
This exception exists because if an agency were required to consult with its lawyer in open session, the discussion would be quite limited, if not impossible, unless the agency were prepared to waive attorney-client confidentiality. Furthermore, the agency, and ultimately the public, would be severely prejudiced in court proceedings or settlement negotiations if it were forced to discuss openly with its lawyer all the information relevant to a lawsuit.
PNA's legal hotline calls reveal that many agencies and their solicitors misconceive that any hypothetical possibility of a lawsuit justifies a closed-door discussion. Although the Sunshine Act speaks of "litigation" and "issues on which identifiable complaints are expected to be filed," many local government agencies treat the exception as though it applies to every situation in which a lawsuit could imaginably arise.
Most issues faced by government agencies can conceivably invite or involve litigation. If the General Assembly intended this exception to be interpreted as broadly as it is by many agencies, there would be little justification for any public discussion of agency business. The only reasonable interpretation of the Sunshine Act is that an agency may discuss, in private, information or strategy related to an active lawsuit or a matter as to which an expectation of specifically identifiable litigation by, against or on behalf of the agency exists.
Once litigation commences in open court, the agency can still rely on the litigation exception to discuss strategies or exchange information with its lawyer. However, if a discussion of the litigation does not involve the lawyer or another professional advisor, there is no justification for the agency to meet in closed session.
What does the statute mean by "other professional advisor?" Agencies can seek assistance and advice from a professional other than a lawyer. For example, if the subject of a lawsuit or an expected lawsuit involves a disputed property line, the agency may confer with a civil engineer, registered surveyor or certified property appraiser regarding the facts of the dispute or litigation strategies.
There is no reason to suppose that the General Assembly meant to treat agency employees differently than non-employees in regard to the litigation exception. The agency's lawyer or other professional advisor may therefore be an "insider," such as the agency solicitor, or a professional retained exclusively for the purposes of litigation.
Next month we will take a look at the remaining and less common reasons for an executive session.
-- Newsroom Legal Update (February 22, 2000)
Misconceptions about Sunshine Act abound, Part 5
In this month's article, we'll finish looking at executive sessions, which the Act defines as meetings "from which the public is excluded, although the agency may admit those persons necessary to carry out the purpose of the meeting." Executive sessions are the most common exceptions to the Act's requirement that agency meetings involving official action or deliberation be open to the public.
The two previous articles in this series examined the most common reasons for an agency to hold an executive session, the so-called "personnel" and "litigation" exceptions to the open meeting requirement. The three reasons we'll look at in this installment are less commonly encountered by reporters and editors. Their experience is reflected in the body of judicial opinions that interpret the Act, among which there is little reference to these reasons for a private agency meeting.
The Act allows an agency to "consider" the purchase or lease of real property in executive session. Real property is land or things erected or affixed to land, as opposed to personal property, the broad category of other things that are subject to legal ownership.
Although the term "consider" is not defined in the Act, it's reasonable to assume the legislature intended it to mean, "discuss." Elsewhere in the executive session provision of the Act, the legislature expressly allows "negotiation sessions" (with respect to labor agreements). It does not give agencies similar latitude with respect to the purchase or lease of real property. The legislature apparently chose not to permit agency members meeting as a body to negotiate privately the acquisition of real property.
This conclusion is reinforced by the fact that the "real property exception" does not contemplate the participation of non-members in the executive session. The "litigation exception," expressly permits consultation between the agency members and their lawyer or other experts during an executive session. The "real property exception" does not authorize persons other than agency members to participate in the executive session.
The Act limits the time period during which an agency may meet in private to consider real property acquisition. It states that such consideration may occur "up to the time an option to purchase or lease the real property is obtained or up to the time an agreement to purchase or lease such property is obtained [if no option is involved]." An option is simply an agreement that gives a person the right to buy a property, if he wishes, at a fixed price within a specified time period.
The apparent purpose of the real property exception is to allow agency members to discuss the purchase of property prospectively without alerting the owner or possible competitors who would otherwise gain a negotiating advantage. If an agency has already purchased a property (or the right to buy it), the rationale for private discussion no longer exists.
Confidentiality of another sort is the rationale for the next type of executive session. The Act allows an agency to "review and discuss" agency business that, if discussed in public, would violate "a lawful privilege or lead to the disclosure of information or confidentiality protected by law." The Act includes within the scope of this open meeting exception "matters related to the initiation and conduct of investigations [of law violations]" and "quasi-judicial deliberations."
The purpose of this exception is to allow agency members to discuss information made confidential by law that is pertinent to the agency's business. Pennsylvania and Federal laws make a wide variety of information confidential, including income tax returns, medical records, and public assistance grants. If discussion or quasi-judicial deliberation of such information is required, an agency may hold an executive session for that purpose. "Quasi-judicial deliberations" refers to the consideration of evidentiary facts and legal principles in preparation for the issuance of a ruling regarding someone's rights or liabilities. For example, an agency would engage in such a process after a hearing in order to decide whether to issue or revoke a license.
Surprisingly, this exception is rarely invoked by local government agencies judging by the case law and the questions received via the legal hotline. In order to hold an executive session pursuant to the is exception, the agency must have a need to discuss information recognized as confidential, such as its referral of a possible criminal offense to an investigative agency or the medical records of an employee. Perhaps such information does not routinely come under the scrutiny of local government, or, if it does, it is dealt with at the administrative level.
The final reason for an executive session is really self-explanatory. The Act states that "duly constituted committees" of the governing bodies of state-owned, state-related and state-aided institutions of higher education may meet in executive session to discuss matters of academic admission or standing. Since a student's academic performance is generally regarded as a private matter under current law, it is not surprising that the legislature would allow a college admissions or academic standing committee to discuss such a matter in private.

By Gina Carbone
Retroactively invite yourself to Drew Barrymore's 2012 summer wedding to Will Kopelman by buying their Montecito, CA home for $7.5 million.
According to RadarOnline, Drew and Will got hitched in the backyard of the 2-acre property, which includes winding paths that run through expansive gardens with avocado and citrus trees. Sounds fragrant!
The 6,000-square-foot, two-story home — built in 1937 — has 6 bedrooms, 7.5 bathrooms and a guest apartment. Drew reportedly bought the home in 2010 for $5.7 million, so she's really crossing her fingers to go for $7.5M now.
Check out the home here. It has a sweet old-fashioned feel to it!

U.S. Offers Reward for Capture of Drug-Cartel Leader
By Marco Grajeda
Las Cruces, NM – Drug cartels in Mexico are consolidating their power, especially because smuggling cocaine and marijuana into the U.S. is so lucrative. As KRWG's Marco Grajeda reports, the U.S. is offering a large sum of money for information leading to the capture of a cartel mastermind.
