The Pensions Advisory Service (TPAS) is an independent
non-profit organisation that provides free information, advice and
guidance on the whole spectrum of company, personal and stakeholder
schemes. We also help you understand how state pension issues
interact with other pensions you may have.
We will be closed on 25
August for the Bank Holiday and will open on Tuesday 27 August
at 9am.
With the increased interest in pensions following the Budget
announcement, we have had a number of people contact us to report
that they have received cold calls saying they have received their
details from the government and that they are government backed to
undertake pension reviews.
This is not
a legitimate claim.
What the government has done is recently introduced a personalised
telephony service, helping those reaching State Pension Age soon
after the New State Pension rules come into effect to understand
the changes to the State pension. This is a pre-arranged call
back service, offered to those who have already contacted the
Department for Work and Pensions for advice. If you receive a cold
call offering this type of service, or a service offering pension
reviews, we would strongly advise caution.
Your pensions are valuable assets and it is recommended that you
check the organisation before releasing information.
We collected the opinions of 1,000 women and have published our

Chris Rock is one of the world's most successful comics. Now he says the secret to stand-up in front of 15,000 people is to channel the inner Freddie Mercury. Click here to read the entire article
On stage Chris Rock is pure comic electricity. His stand-up is loud, vulgar, taboo-skewering, unfailingly funny, wildly popular. He once proposed how gun violence in America could be reduced by simply raising the price of bullets to $5000 apiece. This would not stop the killing, he argued, but the overhead would at least ensure there would be no more innocent bystanders. Click here to read the entire article.
A new article about Chris from the Herald in Dublin, Ireland has been published today. Click here to read the article.
By BOB ELLISON Conventional wisdom suggests that standup comedians don't fare well abroad, but Chris Rock proved them wrong this year, pulling off 2008's biggest international tour, a $23 million affair with 141 shows in eight countries ranging from England to Australia to South Africa. "The idea of a whole extreme culture of differences is a myth -- a gigantic myth, an excuse!" insists Rock, who also saw toon sequel "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" earn more than $165 million worldwide.
Hundreds of screaming fans have welcomed Hollywood funnymen Chris Rock and Ben Stiller at the Australian premiere of Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa.
The sequel to the 2005 animated hit Madagascar premiered at Sydney's State Theatre on Monday night.
Check out the Gallery to see new pictures from this event!
November kicked off in a big way this past weekend with the number 1 debut of DreamWorks' "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa".
Madagascar reunites the voice cast of Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Jada Pinkett Smith, David Schwimmer, Sacha Baron Cohen and Cedric the Entertainer, with their popular talking animals crash-landing in Central Africa.
Kill The Messenger will be released on DVD on Jan. 20th. You can pre-order the DVD here or click here to order the 2 disc collector's edition!

All of the loveable characters are back "" Alex the lion, Marty the zebra, Melman the giraffe and Gloria the hippo, King Julien, Maurice and the penguins "" in Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. They find themselves in the wildest place of all "" the vast plains of Africa "" where our zoo-raised crew encounter species of their own kind for the very first time. While discovering their roots, they quickly find the differences between the concrete jungle and the heart of Africa. Despite long-lost relatives, romantic rivals and scheming hunters, Africa seems like a great place...but is it better than their Central Park home? The film opens nationwide Nov. 7th.
Hello my name is Chris Rock aka the only black at the concert. This year has been one my busiest concert years of all time. So far this year I was the only black guy at the Van Halen concert, the only black guy at the Cure concert, and the only black guy at the White Stripes concert. And later on this year I'm sure I'll be the only black guy at the Radiohead concert.
This week my assignment was to see Coldplay at Madison Square Garden. Now being the only black guy can sometimes be dangerous like the time I was the only black guy at an ACDC concert in Prague. There not use to seeing black people at all in Prague, but a black guy singing "Hell's Bells" was just a little to much for them to take. Now I didn't know what to expect from a Coldplay concert, but I figured I wasn't gonna get stabbed in the middle of "Yellow." Anyway the concert was pretty good. I thought it was a perfect mix of old and new songs and I gotta say that when they did something from the new album, Chris Martin was smart enough not to say the words you hate to hear the most at a concert; " This is something from our new album." That's like saying this is a good time to take a shit.
Anyway when they did a new song they just did it and it seemed to fit right in with the old stuff. I didn't know the names of any of the new songs, but the white people next to me seemed to know every word. If I have any complaints I thought Chris Martin might have mentioned the fact that the concert was free a few too many times. I thought it was a little obnoxious. If you pay for dinner just pay for it, don't say to me you like that free food. Free food is good, ain't it. Again the white people seemed happy with it, but as the only black guy there I thought he might be talking to me. My other complaint was the use of pre-record music and drum machines. At one point I thought they were gonna sing Rhythm Nation, but other than those two things I thought it was a great concert. When they went into the crowd and did a stripped down version of "Yellow" I thought that was the highlight of a great night. Music critics like to compare Coldplay to Radiohead and that's not fair. Coldplay is no Radiohead and Radiohead is no Coldplay. You can understand every word to a Coldplay song the first time you hear it. Nothing wrong with that. If anything, Coldplay kind of reminds me of a British Hall and Oates. In the eighties what did a pop record song like? It sounded like Darryl Hall. And now what does a pop record sound like? It sounds like Chris Martin. Any way I don't know when the next concert is and I don't know where it is but don't worry you'll see me because I'll be the only black guy there.

I saw a post on CL - 85L f1.2 II selling for $1775.
Condition according to seller:
1. Like new in term of funtionality and cosmetic. ( I did saw the pictures from seller, the lens looks new)
2. No dust, B&W filter is included
3. Date code UA(2012)
4. Comes with everything box, foams, etc....original receipt from best buy. Warranty is just expired
5. Reason for selling: seller wants 50L. 85L is little to tight.
I spoke to seller over the phone and we agreed @ $1550 cash.
Question: Would you go for it if all conditions above are true?
Thanks guys...I'll inspect and test out this lens this weekend. I'll keep everyone updated. Hope everything will go smoothly.
Another question: How do you identify refurb lens?
Not really a good way if the guy is clever, but refurbs come in a different box -- not the typical retail box that you are used to. The refurb box is mostly white and doesn't have the typical product markings on it (i.e. generic). You can also look for the warranty card -- new will be the 1 year that you're used to; refurbs have a piece of paper that detail the 90 days.
Thanks Random Orbits for GREAT info.

PEORIA, Ill. -- A group of area bikers are going above and beyond to fight breast cancer here in central Illinois.
The group "Bikers for Ta-Tas" presented the Methodist Foundation with a check for $38,000.
The funds were raised by the annual "Bikers for Ta-Tas" ride. More than 1,200 riders participated in this year's event.
In its first year, the group raised just $150. Now in its 5th year, the ride raised $38,000 for breast cancer treatment and prevention.
Bikers for Ta-Tas Founder Nancy Borum said the leap in donations comes from members of the biker community who are ready and willing to give back.
"We really enjoy the biker community," said Borum. "They're really generous people and they do a lot for great causes. It's our way of volunteering and showing our support. It's not just a bar hop, it's a really great ride."
This year's donation goes toward keeping the Methodist MammoVan moving throughout Central Illinois to give women access to breast screenings.

Greater Sage-Grouse Draft Environmental Impact Statements
The 90-day comment period for the Greater Sage-grouse draft environmental impact statements and land use plan amendments for Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming have all ended. The total number of substantive comments received was 7,360. We received comments from individuals, state and local governments, and stakeholder groups. The Forest Service and the BLM are analyzing the comments received and will be developing Response to Comment reports that will be included as appendices in each final environment impact Statement/land use plan amendment.
The Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management will be analyzing the substantive comments received, revising the draft environmental impact statements, and publishing final environmental impact statements, which will include Response to Comment reports. A Notice of Availability for the Proposed Land Use Plan Amendments and Environmental Impact Statements is expected to be published in the Federal Register in the fall of 2014.
The Forest Service published a Notice of Intent on May 21, 2014, announcing the agency's intent to prepare an environmental impact statement to amend the Dakota Prairie Grasslands Land and Resource Management Plan. The scoping period commenced on May 22, 2014, and will end on July 7, 2014. This effort will analyze approximately 140,400 acres in the planning area and identify management direction to conserve, enhance, or restore greater sage-grouse habitat by reducing, eliminating, or minimizing threats to that habitat. A Forest Service draft environmental impact statement is expected in November 2014, and the final environmental impact statement is expected in June 2015.
Public involvement is essential and a required part of the planning process. The scoping process guides development of the environmental impact statement by helping to identify the relevant issues. The scoping document is posted on the Dakota Prairie National Grasslands website. Comments can be submitted in writing to Dennis Neitzke, Grasslands Supervisor, 1200 Missouri Avenue, Bismarck, ND 58504. Comments may also be sent via email to: email@example.com or via facsimile to: 701–989–7299.
Global climate change is altering forest and grassland ecosystems. These lands produce services such as water, clean air, wood products, recreation, wildlife habitats, etc.
The Pando Clone is an aspen stand encompassing approximately 106 acres on the Fishlake National Forest. This clone (based on DNA testing) is thought to be the largest organism in the world.
The Dixie National Forest is the lead forest for three power line projects that will potentially impact all Utah forests. The Forest Service is not the lead agency; BLM is the lead agency.
The Forests to Faucets Project identifies areas that supply surface drinking water, have consumer demand for this water, and are facing significant development threats.

Recently my wife, Myra, received a call letting her know that one of her best friends in the world had died in her sleep. Earlier in the summer she and this friend had spent a day together at this woman's home, talking, laughing, riding four-wheelers in the pasture and catching up on the latest news in each other's lives. That it would be their last time together came as quite a shock, and we were both deeply saddened by the tragic loss of this fine woman.
Amid her own tears, Myra said that her friend had occasionally talked about death. She had even gone so far as to say that "when I go, I want to go quickly and in my sleep; I can't stand the thought of a prolonged exit." Of course at the time, death was the farthest thing from either of their minds, but even so, they had talked about how sometimes, we confuse life's quantity with its quality.
This woman lived a quality life, enjoying her tenure here on earth. She was a devoted wife, a loving mother, an adoring grandmother and a thoughtful friend. She had a quick wit and laughed easily. She wasn't the type of person prone to anger, nor did she hold grudges. Hers was a life well-lived and in her passing I was once again reminded that the quality of a life isn't measured in its duration. What is evident to me is that a life that touches so many in a positive way has been an unqualified success.
Myra's friend lived her life with love, happiness, the ability to forgive and forget, and she took the time to do the things that she enjoyed. Her last day on earth was filled with the laughter of her grandchildren splashing about in an above-ground pool on the family farm. Knowing it would be hot at harvest, she had thought the pool would be a fun way for everyone to stay cool. If a person were scripting their final day, it couldn't have been more perfect.
And isn't that ultimately what we should be hoping for? When we are at the end of our days and are surrounded by those with whom we've shared this journey, it is my suspicion that there won't be a single one amongst us that is fretting about the tasks that weren't completed, or the financial opportunities we let slip away. We won't be thinking that "I sure wish I would have spent more time with my nose to the grindstone," or that "I wish I had taken fewer vacations and spent less time with my kids."
I'm not suggesting that we "live for the moment," meaning that we abandon the notion of planning for the future. It is, of course, imperative to plan for the future, but there has to be some type of balance. American poet Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "We are always getting ready to live but never living." We can't spend our days waiting to "live our lives" sometime in the future. While planning for the future, it is important that we "live IN the moment" because tomorrow just isn't guaranteed.
If this week were to be your last on earth, how would you live it? Are there people in your life that you've been neglecting? Is there someone you need to forgive that you're still holding on to the anger and withholding that forgiveness? Is there a book you've been meaning to read; a friend you've been thinking about calling; a place you've always wanted to visit but just haven't seemed to find the time to do so? If this were to be your last week on earth...
So how do you know it isn't?

I have finally talked hubby into building a woodie at our home but the space we have is only about 10.5'x 11' with a 6'3" ceiling. am I wasting our time and money? If we do it, I would probably put a 10x8 at 45deg (with a 6" kicker) on one of the 10.5 wall which will come out about 6' on the ceiling and then a 8x6.5 30deg on the opposite wall, I will have about a foot on the ceiling between the 2 walls which I will put a couple of roof jugs on so I can go up one wall and down the other. I will probably get the HIT system for the 45 wall but I am not sure how many I can fit on it with the low ceiling. you comments are much appreciated.
I'm no expert, so I don't take my own opinion too seriously, but if I were you I would go for it.
Sounds like a reasonable plan. Be sure to consider the possibility of swinging back and hitting the wall behind you if your feet cut while climbing the 45. Free advice: skip the hit strips. They're too juggy for real training, IMO. I think you'd be better off buying some matched sets of holds or other system holds instead.
ChuiSan, take some big bedsheets and mock it up. Tape the sheets to the walls and ceiling where you anticipate the woody will be. This will give you an excellent idea of whether or not the space is too small. If it feels too small, just make a less steep wall and incorporate smaller holds.
Lanky & kBobby - Thanks for the advice about hitting the wall and setting up bedsheets. Re making it less steep, that would mean less climbing area and less upward movements with the low ceiling :(
No, it's not too short! My home wall is in a basement with a 7 foot ceiling and when you put the wall angle at 45 degrees I can consistently set boulder problems with 5-10 moves. Make some plywood volumes and just get some decent 1/4 pad and 1/2 pad handhold sets and realize that the wall is to develop power and finger strength, not endurance. Good Luck
Thanks Old Timer, that's reassuring even though your ceiling is a whole 9" higher than mine :D (my friends didn't think I could do more than a couple of moves on an eight foot long wall). What size kicker do you have? I think I will go for it, off to search for t-nuts ...
Thanks Andy. That t-nut list was very helpful, I think cheapholds has the best price now for 1000 with the 15% off and free shipping. Do you think putting around 200 per 4x8 is a bit overkill?
200 sounds about right. My favorite pattern is a 4" x 8" grid offset every row by 4" beginning 2" from the edges. (row 1:2",10",18",26",34",42" . Row 2:6",14",22",30",38",46").You end up with a 6" spacing diagonally between T nuts and can still use 16" OC framing. If you go with a 6" t-nut spacing you always have at least 2 rows that conflict with the framing no matter the offset, and 4" spacing is a bit overkill. As for drilling, stack all the sheets and screw/clamp them together at least 4 at once. Buy a cheap drill press attachment for your corded drill and a decent brad point drill. Set the limit stop on the drill press to drill about 1/2 way through your bottom sheet. Now you only have to do your layout once, and you can use your bottom sheet as a template for the rest of your sheets. You also only have to worry about drilling one unbacked sheet(use scrap 2x4 to drill into).
Small space = small woodie
Yes, 4" horizontally between rows( typically lay plywood panels horizontally) with 8" between t-nuts vertically. I have built a couple walls with 4" spacing both ways, if you have the t-nuts then go for it. It is a lot more drilling though. Realize that the top of your top panel does not need the last row of t-nuts drilled to 2" from the edge as you usually want jugs at the top. If you are building two sides that join with a small roof panel you may want to frame and sheath both of your big walls then add sleepers(horizontal 2x4's layed flat) to mount your roof panel to. This will let you only have to do any tapered cuts on the roof panel to meet up with the main walls. If you make these cuts with a 45degree bevel you get a nice tight joint. Depending on the orientation of your rafters/joists realize you may need to have both of the top plates sitting on sleepers already. If you haven't yet I would recommend looking at the How To guide on the Metolius website for building walls. It is the best guideline I have found. Over engineering a wall really does not add much to the cost, I would frame your 45 wall with 2x8's, and hang the stringers(joists) from joist hangers.
I have used a hammer drill to make my own holds from real rock. 3/16 hole for countersunk deck screws. Then you can put the holds wherever you want and are not limited by the T nuts. I would even be willing to sell a few if you want to check them out. Here are a few I have made:
If you go through the effort to paint your wall you should add some shark-grip or other non skid additive. More than texture they help keep the paint from sticking to your holds and peeling off when you move them. Use a good 100% Acrylic floor paint for maximum durability. I prefer the look of raw or polyurethaned walls but the toe drag marks from beginners can look pretty bad after a while.
Reply to Woodchuck ATC: They are Fountain Sandstone which is very hard. I have also used Phonolite which is like the stone of Penetente canyon. My experince is if they make it through drilling they are OK and won't break. I have a couple hundred that I have been using for over 10 years and have never had one break after drilling.
Personally, I wouldn't spend the time or money for such a small space...not so much the L x W dimensions, but the height. Unless you live a long ways from a gym, I'd take the money you'd spend on wood, holds, and t-nuts and buy a gym membership instead. The only people I know who've built woodies and continued to use them over time are the people with enough space (and some pysched training partners) who didn't have a gym nearby. For my own needs, anything less than about 10' of buildable height isn't worth the effort. YMMV of course. For me, to be psyched on home woodie training, I'd need to go the Moon School Room board route, where you can easily replicate problems other people have designed at consensus grades, or with something very small like you are proposing, I'd go the symmetrical layout route and train mirror image moves/sequences instead of trying to set unique "boulder problems" on the board. The Hubers did something similar in their early training. It would be more boring than regular bouldering type work, but hangboarding is insanely boring and I don't have a problem doing that season after season, year after year.

Cooperstown Crier
---- — History is something you never stop learning. The more you know the more you realize you don't know the half of it. The civil rights struggle in this country is a good example of that. No matter how rough race relations come across in textbooks, novels and movies, there is always another story to leave you shaking your head in disbelief.
Larry Colton is a writer and former professional baseball player. He has a unique ability to find an undiscovered piece of history and turn it into a spellbinding story. He achieved his bona fides with "No Ordinary Joes," his amazing biography of four U.S. Navy submariners who survived capture and internment by the Japanese during World War II. It was a side of the WWII that few people were aware of and Colton told it with incredible passion. If anyone could provide a provocative twist to the civil rights movement it would be Colton.
Combining his love of baseball and his knack for a good story, Colton came upon the ideal tale to explore race relations in the Deep South in 1964. A new minor league was being established that was to be called the Southern League. Included in the league were the Birmingham (Alabama) Barons, a squad that included two African Americans and three Hispanics, and was the first integrated team in the city's history. Colton's review of that season in the midst of the civil rights movement resulted in his new book, "Southern League: A True Story of Baseball, Civil Rights, and the Deep South's Most Compelling Pennant Race."
It was the ultimate experiment in racial tolerance since Martin Luther King considered Birmingham the most segregated city in America. It was the home to Bull Connor, the Birmingham commissioner of public safety, who infamously ordered police dogs and water hoses to be turned on peaceful civil rights protesters. Alabama's governor was George Wallace, whose best-known quote was, "Segregation today, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever!" Birmingham was also the city where four young black girls were killed when members of the Ku Klux Klan set their church on fire.
To understand just how intolerant Birmingham was at that time, the Ku Klux Klan was still popular, lynchings still occurred, separate water fountains were the rule, and "white" hospitals would not accept black patients. The landmark Brown vs. Board of Education decision integrating public schools was being resisted, and the 1964 Civil Rights Act was being debated in Washington. Forced change was on the horizon and whites were not happy about it.
"Southern League" opens with a vignette about pitcher John "Blue Moon" Odom. Odom would go on to achieve stardom with the World Series champion Oakland A's in the early '70s but in 1964 he was just out of high school, signed to a huge bonus, and assigned to the Barons to start his professional career.
Odom was driving his brand new Ford Galaxy and was pulled over by a white cop for some minor infraction, but more so because he was a black teenager driving an expensive new car. Fortunately, the cop had heard of him so he let Odom go but advised him to stay in the "black" (he used a stronger word) part of town. It was Odom's initiation into professional baseball in the Deep South. Fame and fortune didn't change how you were treated if your skin was the wrong color.
Colton tells the story of "Southern League" through the eyes of four players (two black and two white), the manager and the team owner. He intersperses the events of the era with the baseball season to give the reader a feel for the ongoing tensions of the era. It's a tribute to the players, both black and white, their manager, and even their owner that they truly bonded as a team.
The book is technically about the Barons' season and their efforts to win the league title. But it's really a history lesson about the end of the Jim Crow era in the Deep South, the indignities African Americans faced, and the whites' resistance to change. Colton hit a home run with "No Ordinary Joes" and hits another with "Southern League."

Local clergy believe some good can come from the controversial and tragic death of young Trayvon Martin. They point to the passions expressed about the case and the possibility some of that energy can be redirected toward protecting young people, especially at risk-youthRev. Derrick Rice of Sandkofa United Church of Christ said that the death of the 17-year-old Florida teen should signal an alarm for adults with regard to protecting and engaging young people. "If you are in anguish about what could happen to your child, what are the churches or basketball leagues or crews that are about building up strong black men, that create a hedge of protection if you will, that allows us to know the outside still has the dangers that will be unless some policies are implemented," Rice said.Rice presides over a small congregation which borders where young black men attend college says what is required is hands on guidance from adults. "I will…suggest that there are organizations and we are using the language loosely, but there are organizations that consistently do work that is tied to keeping what took place with Trayvon from happening," Rice said. Rev. Dr. Joanna Adams of First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta discussed the Florida case on a recent appearance on "Good Day Atlanta." "Expressed one solidarity with the Martin family, just with the whole tragedy, so I think free expression is a big deal. However, if and when the demonstrations turn violent, then that is not a good thing," said Adams.Adams said be concerned and passionate but do not be destruction.

Vives Tops Major Competition For Spot In Quarterfinals At ITA Regional Championships
ATLANTA – After first-round losses by his teammates, Jordi Vives (Barcelona, Spain/IES Ferran Tallada/USC) of the FGCU men's tennis team made it his goal to keep the Green and Blue alive in the highly-competitive main singles draw of the ITA Southeastern Regional Championships. Showing an undying determination, Vives topped his competitors from Florida State and Miami to secure a spot in the tournament quarterfinals.
"I'm glad to see my name listed alongside seven of the best players from Florida and Georgia," Vives Said. "I played good tennis today and feel like I have to continue enjoying it on the court if I want to win tomorrow. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for the support I've received this weekend."
Vives entered Sunday's round of 32 matchup knowing he'd have to bring his A-game as he was slated to face Jose Garcia of Florida State. Prepared for the challenge ahead and eager to take a spot in the round of 16, Vives entered the contest with confidence as he jumped to an early lead before claiming the match in two sets, 6-4, 7-5.
Returning Sunday afternoon to play in the round of 16, Vives would oppose yet another high-major opponent in Miami's Wilfredo Gonzalez. After dropping the first set, 6-2, Vives came back in the second and shut Gonzalez out, 6-0. To start the third, Vives fell down quickly, 2-0, but bounced back to take control and lead Gonzalez, 4-2, before ultimately taking the set, 6-4, to win the match and a spot in the quarterfinals.
"What a pair of wins for Jordi," head coach CJ Weber said. "This is so awesome for him and for our program. What an opportunity we have tomorrow!"
FGCU's three other players had a day of fierce competition in the singles and doubles consolation brackets. Facing a player from host Georgia Tech was Lucas Vaz (Sao Paulo, Brazil/Colegio Fleming/Tulsa), who couldn't quite keep up with Colin Edwards, falling 6-2, 6-4. Senior co-captian Dean Tsamas (Lexington, Ky./Henry Clay HS) took on conference rival Simon Pritchard of Kennesaw State. While the first set went back-and-forth leading to a tie breaker, Pritchard ultimately claimed the victory 7-6 (3), 6-1. Meanwhile Tsamas' doubles partner Tianyu Bao (Tianjin, China/Bayshore HS) fell in a similar fashion to Eric Baum of Georgia State, losing 7-5, 6-4.
After facing the No. 2 ITA ranked pair from UGA to open play in the main doubles draw, Bao and Tsamas teamed up again in the consolation draw but suffered an 8-4 loss to Eric Baum and Jannis Koeke of Georgia State.
In day four of the championships, Vives will face Nathan Pasha of Georgia Tech in the main-draw quarterfinals while Vaz, Bao and Tsamas will continue consolation play.

Wisconsin Supremes Mull Case of Lawyer Accused of Lying to Partners (But Not Clients) About Hours
Posted Oct 10, 2012 5:45 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
The Wisconsin Supreme Court heard oral arguments last week on whether to suspend a lawyer accused of lying to his partners about achieving 1,800 billable hours while correctly billing his clients.
Matthew Siderits is accused of lying to partners about his billable hours at Otjen, Van Ert & Weir to qualify for a bonus in 2007 and 2008, according to the Office of Lawyer Regulation and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel blog Proof and Hearsay. A referee has recommended a suspension of 18 months.
Siderits became a partner in 2004 and worked in the area of workers compensation defense. He was the firm's treasurer and typically entered his time into the computer system. After obtaining a bonus, the OLR brief (PDF) says, he deleted some of his hours from the system. He has since repaid the firm about $60,000.
Siderits maintains he was merely writing down or correcting client bills. In one case, his brief (PDF) says, he spotted a typographical error. In another, he realized he should not bill for all the time spent doing extensive research on a case. Siderits maintains he did not violate ethics rules, and if he did, he does not deserve an 18-month suspension.
The case is in the news after a New York Times article ran questioning inefficiencies in the billable hour system. The former partner who wrote the article, Robert Pozen, is now a Harvard business lecturer. He says his expertise worked against him when he worked at a Washington law firm.
"For me, hourly billing was a raw deal," Pozen wrote. "I ran the risk of being underpaid because I answered questions too quickly and billed a smaller number of hours."

Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) says it is now $200,000 in debt. Last summer the organization was $500,000 in the hole. New CIAA commissioner Jacqie Carpenter says she is ready to tackle the issue.
"We've made some additional cuts," Carpenter said. "And have done better business decisions in some of the championships we run."
Carpenter also says fans can help out a great deal to get the association out of debt. She told WBTV out of all the fans who crowd Charlotte streets and pack the parties during CIAA week, only half of them attend games.
"That's quite alarming," the commissioner said. "Because that means they are doing something other that what the whole event is about, and that's basketball."
For the past three years, tickets have been on the decline and CIAA wants to do something about that. So far CIAA reports ticket sales are okay. The organization will now do a better job reaching out to the community to help boost ticket sales.
"Whether it's the education system and teachers," Carpenter said. "Or whether it's members of the local organizing committee of CRVA that may not have access to tickets. We are thinking out of the box. We have to continue to be creative and aggressive."
CIAA also will cut out giving away too many complimentary tickets and invitations to events that cost money. The belief is that will also help CIAA recover.
The new commissioner is also renegotiating contracts the former commissioner signed to see if there are any savings there. She is ready to overhaul the organization.
"It's not to say the former commissioner did a bad job managing it," Carpenter said. "I think the tournament grew, our events have grown, the conference has grown, maybe some things hadn't been adjusted to manage those expectations."
Officials will also target those businesses that are profiting off CIAA and not giving back to the organization.
"We are about higher education," Carpenter said. "And intercollegiate athletics, so when I see events that have inappropriate content or women or men or whatever, and it appears to be a CIAA official event that nerves me terribly."
CIAA is now suing those businesses for using the CIAA's brand for their own use. The organization thinks if they win the lawsuit, it will help CIAA bounce back financially.
"The protection of the brand is extremely important," Carpenter said. "Because if you don't protect it, how can we get more sponsors or people to buy into the product when everybody has access to it."
Tip off for the tournament is February 26th.

CHARLES ROSS, the well known lawyer and democrat of Lillington, has cause to take pride in the quality of his immediate ancestry and his connections by marriage. Blood does tell; there is no earthly doubt about it.
Mr. Ross' parents are Romulus and Ellen (McCulloch) Ross, and they are living at Asheboro, Randolph County, this state. His father was born in Guilford County, North Carolina, in 1851, and in early life moved to Randolph County. The family ancestors came from Maryland and before the Revolutionary war settled at Guilford Court House, Guilford County. They were of substantial Scotch stock, and their descendants have inherited the racial traits in a marked degree. Romulus Ross has been one of the representative men of Randolph County for many years, having served his county and district in the State Senate and as sheriff of the county.
Charles Ross is a thoroughly educated man and well prepared to complete any undertaking which he assumes. His earlier education was pursued in Asheboro schools and at the University of North Carolina. He studied law in Columbian University (now George Washington University), at the national capital, receiving his professional degree, and license to practice in 1912. For some years previously he had engaged in the lumber business, and in 1906 established his residence at Lillington. Since beginning his practice there in 1912 he has become one of the leading lawyers in that section of the state.
A number of years before commencing practice Mr. Ross had become well known as a democratic leader. In the session of 1901 he represented Randolph County in the Lower House of the General Assembly, and in 1910 he was again elected a member of that body from Harnett County. For the campaign in the general election of 1916 he was chosen chairman of the Democratic County Executive Committee, and in that capacity brought his county over from the republican columns to the democracy. Both as a manager and a legislator he has deserved and received high credit from leaders and people.
Mr. Ross married Miss Frances Reid McKay, daughter of the late Rev. Neill McKay, D. D., and Margaret (Murchison) McKay, the latter of whom is living at the old McKay residence in Summerville. Mr. and Mrs. Ross have six children—Charles Reid, Neill McKay, Frances Ramsey, Romulus Rudolph, Margaret Murchison, and Robert Page Ross.
DR. NEILL MCKAY, the father of Mrs. Ross, was one of the state's most notable characters as a minister and a promoter of education. There are few men identified with the progress of North Carolina who have wielded so deep and widespread an influence as the deceased; for he not only poured his spirit and the inspiration of his fine character into the church of his choice, thus influencing for good those of all ages and classes, but fathered with his wisdom and his material assistance the famous Summerville Academy for Boys, which in the many years of its life, sent forth some of the choicest spirits of North Carolina. In his active years Doctor McKay was the leading character in the Fayetteville Presbytery, and the extension of its usefulness is largely due to his ceaseless efforts, forethought and patient leadership. As his home was at old Summerville, it is natural that he should become interested in the Academy or preparatory school for boys; and to become interested in a project, or an institution, invariably resulted in earnest and practical work for its advancement. So that, as the years passed, the good and distinguished doctor became first respected, then honored and finally revered for his faithful brooding and his continuous generosity in behalf of the institution to which he had given his soul, and through which he had started so many of the young generation along the pats of legitimate and Christian honor. The chief patron of the Summerville Academy could not have financially supported it as he did had he not been a successful man of business affairs. For many years he was associated with his brother, Dr. John W. McKay, a physician, but extensively engaged in the turpentine and naval stores industries. This combination in one character of business ability, deep scholarship, intellectual keenness and sustained morality and spiritual elevation, constituted almost a unique personality.
Mrs. McKay was born at Manchester, Cumberland County, North Carolina, and is the daughter of the late Duncan Murchison, who with his sons was one of the wealthiest and most prominent business men of North Carolina. The headquarters of their interests were at Wilmington. The Murchisons have always occupied a very prominent place in the commercial and industrial development of the Cape Fear section of North Carolina.

|Middle school ODE 'School of Promise'
|Monday, March 11, 2013 10:12 AM
DELPHOS — When the Ohio Department of Education officially released its school Report Cards last week, Jefferson Middle School had an addendum attached: "School of Promise."
According to the ODE, the School of Promise program was started in 2003 to help close the math and reading achievement gap for students who represent a range of socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds.
"Being named a School of Promise is an honor," Jefferson Middle School Principal Terry Moreo said. "This award is bigger than one building. It represents the quality of instruction being taught by every teacher in our district."
Getting everyone on the same page is a lot of work.
"We have bi-monthly meetings with teachers to align lessons with state curriculum guidelines to apply to teaching," Moreo said. "Each course of lessons is mapped out monthly."
Finding the students who need the extra help to keep up with their peers is key.
"We do six individual short-cycle assessments with each student. Their success is charted and instruction is adjusted to them," Moreo said. "Our teachers realize that to make educational progress requires change. Daily our teachers making practice of this change."
The school will receive a banner noting the designation later this month.

Mum and sons raise thousands after 20,000-ft jump
2:00pm Wednesday 13th June 2012 in News By Lauren May, Chief Reporter
A mother and her too sons who jumped 20,000 feet from a plane have raised nearly £20,000 for charity.
Anne Waldron, from Wimbledon, joined seven other women for the third annual Breakthrough Booby Birds sky dive over Oxfordshire.
She has already raised £17,000 and is on track to meet her target of £20,000.
She said: "Jumping out of a plane didn't scare me as much as raising £20,000, a huge amount which I never thought I would get to but I have been amazed and truly touched by people's generosity.
"We are yet to get the better of this dreadful disease, but I whole heartedly believe that every penny that I have raised will go direct to Breakthrough's life saving work, and one day soon, we will beat breast cancer for good."
The Breakthrough Booby Birds have already raised nearly £1m in three years for Breakthrough Breast Cancer.

They Went For The Gold, They Went In Gold-------
This summer's athletic champions may have left London in August, but the city's Olympic hangover lives on. Case in point, last night's 58th London Evening Standard Theatre Awards, which, held in association with Burberry, bestowed the Beyond Theatre honor upon Danny Boyle for his eccentric opening ceremony extravaganza. Naturally, anyone who can convince the queen to parachute with James Bond and seamlessly assemble a show with Paul McCartney, somersaulting NHS patients, and an inflatable Lord Voldemort is deserving of recognition. Team Great Britain gold medalist Victoria Pendleton handed the director his award at the Savoy Theatre. But she wasn't the only one keeping with the theme. Burberry favorite Jourdan Dunn, on hand to celebrate along with BFF Cara Delevingne, Mario Testino, and more, was a vision in (Olympic) gold. And though she's second place to no one, Dame Judi Dench picked up her Golden Seagull award—for contributions to global theater—in silver.

Don't tell me the schedule doesn't matter in the NFL. Here's a look at teams that will benefit the most and be hindered the most by whom they play this season.
The Arizona Cardinals have the services of running back Beanie Wells and wide receiver Andre Roberts for Sunday's game against Seattle.||||||| Roberts missed last week's game against the New York Jets with an ankle injury. In his last game against St. Louis on Nov. 25, Roberts had a career-high nine catches.
Roberts had seven catches for 103 yards and a score in the Cardinals' loss to the Vikings on Sunday.||||||| Roberts, who continues to be a hit-or-miss play, ended up with his second 100-yard effort of the season. He also has five touchdowns.
Roberts had six catches for 118 yards and two TDs against the Dolphins on Sunday.||||||| Roberts could be worthy of a look in deeper leagues, especially if Larry Fitzgerald continues to draw more attention from opposing defensive backs.
Roberts caught six passes for a carer-high 111 yards during Sunday's 19-13 overtime win over Dallas.||||||| Roberts' only two career 100-yard efforts have both come against the Cowboys. Fantasy owners shouldn't buy too much into Roberts' big game until he shows he can produce with some consistency going forward.
Roberts had five catches for 110 yards and a TD in Saturday's 27-26 win over Dallas.||||||| Roberts' 74-yard TD electrified the Christmas night crowd at University of Phoenix Stadium. He's a rookie from The Citadel who fantasy owners should monitor.
