The Basics of Bond in Virginia
In the moments after being arrested and charged with a criminal offense, many defendants are singularly focused on one question: when will they get out of jail?A lot of confusion exists among defendants and their families over the bond/bail process and what can and cannot be done by the defendant, their attorney, and the court. A basic understanding of how bond works in Virginia can alleviate a lot of that confusion, and place defendants and their loved ones in the best position going forward.
To begin, while they are often used interchangeably, the terms "bail" and "bond" do have different meanings in Virginia:
Bail is the pretrial release of a person upon certain terms or conditions set by a judicial officer.
Bond is the actual posting or promise to pay a specific sum as ordered by a judicial officer to assure a defendant's compliance with the … Read More »
To Plea or Not to Plea?
That Is the Question for Many Criminal Defendants
The world of criminal defense has been abuzz lately regarding a unique plea deal that was struck last month in Shenandoah County, Virginia. In that case, the defendant, Jessie Herald, was facing five charges: felony child endangerment, felony hit and run, misdemeanor failure to provide medical attention to an injured child, misdemeanor driving on a suspended license, and misdemeanor driving after forfeiture of his license. In exchange for dropping two misdemeanors, he agreed as part of his terms of probation to get a vasectomy. The defendant had fathered multiple children and the prosecutor deemed it would be in the Commonwealth's best interests for him to have a vasectomy. The decision has been controversial among the legal community of where the line should be drawn in what is acceptable in a plea deal.
While most … Read More »
Supreme Court Requires Warrants for Cell Phone Searches
In our highly politicized and pluralistic world, consensus often comes with a shock. Debates are argued not necessarily by the brightest advocates for a position, but by the loudest or most intense. Legislation always feels like it is passed by party line. And popular convention extends the same to the United States Supreme Court: that there are four justices who all agree one way, four who agree inapposite, and one deciding swing vote every time. If you just observe superficially, every Supreme Court decision is a 5-4 affair. So when the justices return a 9-0 decision, it comes as a shock to many. And the same superficial observation has us give a 9-0 ruling more weight than a 5-4 decision. On June 25, 2014, the Supreme Court issued one of these seemingly rare unanimous decisions, answering a question of utmost importance: whether … Read More »
Seeing Starrs: Deferred Dispositions in Virginia
The criminal bar has been abuzz with the recent decision by the Virginia Supreme Court in Starrs v. Commonwealth, 287 Va. 1, 752 S.E.2d 812 (2014). In the Commonwealth of Virginia, just as in our federal system, two separate branches of government have the power to effect change in our laws and often wrestle with each other over the implementation of that power. On the one hand we have legislators in our General Assembly who make the laws, and on the other hand we have judges who interpret those laws and make daily decisions about how they apply to defendants.
Deferred dispositions are one area where these two sources of power disagree over where authority ultimately lays. A deferred disposition is simple enough in the abstract. In Virginia, the guilt phase and the sentencing phase of adjudication are two separate events. A defendant … Read More »
Supreme Court Approves Traffic Stop Based on Anonymous 911 Call
On April 22, 2014, the Supreme Court issued a decision in Prado Navarette v. California, 572 U.S. ____ (2014) that will have a significant impact on DUI and other traffic stop cases nationwide. In a 5-4 decision, the Court found that a police officer has reasonable suspicion to stop a driver based on an anonymous 911 call complaining of reckless driving behavior.
In this case, the defendants (Lorenzo and Jose Prado Navarette) were driving a Silver Ford F-150 down a California highway. An anonymous 911 caller reported that the F-150 ran them off of the highway. Approximately 15 minutes later, a state patrol officer made contact with the F-150 and, after observing the vehicle for five minutes, pulled it over. Upon approaching the vehicle, the officers smelled marijuana—and then discovered 30 pounds of marijuana in the bed of the truck. The defendants … Read More »
New Virginia Criminal Laws in 2014
In Virginia, March Madness carries multiple meanings. For most, at least in recent years, March Madness has been the time for our "mid-major" universities, George Mason and Virginia Commonwealth, just to name two, to shock the nation and make runs at the Final Four, while our major universities disappoint. In 2014, the University of Virginia appears poised to reverse this trend, and perhaps make a deep run in the tournament.
But madness in the month of March also means the end of the Virginia General Assembly session. The Virginia system of governance, with our part-time citizen delegates and senators, always provides ample fodder for water cooler discussion. Each Virginia delegate can introduce or "sponsor" an innumerable number of new bills, many of which could make an appearance on one of those desk calendars with a crazy law for every day of the … Read More »
How Criminal Trials Are Like MMA Fights
Mixed Martial Arts ("MMA") has been a sport for about 20 years, but in the last several years, it has gone from being a fringe spectacle to a mainstream sport covered by ESPN and airing matches on major networks. An initial glance at a singular fight might illicit myriad emotions from the viewer, ranging from excitement to disgust. You might view fighters as thugs or beasts, or you may see them as noble gladiators or elite athletes. Whatever your opinion, there is one undeniable fact: the fifteen or so minutes that make up the fight are just a fraction of the time, preparation and work that goes into an MMA contest.
The criminal trial process is extremely similar to an MMA fight, much more than you might realize. Criminal lawyers are often judged based upon their performance in the courtroom, but the … Read More »
How to Help Your Criminal Attorney Protect Your Immigration Status
Being charged with a criminal offense can be an anxiety-causing event for anyone. But immigrants charged with crimes face not only potential criminal punishments but also the potential impact on their immigration status from a criminal conviction. If you are an immigrant charged with a crime, here are four ways to help your criminal attorney protect your immigration status from the very beginning of your case:
Identify Your Status. It is crucial that you identify your immigration status for your criminal attorney as soon as possible. The immigration consequences of a criminal conviction can vary greatly depending on whether you are a lawful permanent resident, asylee, non-immigrant visa holder, completely without status, etc. If you are unsure of your status, make sure you bring copies of all immigration paperwork with you to the initial consultation with your criminal attorney. Immigration status should be the … Read More »
When Are Juveniles Tried As Adults in Virginia?
While most juvenile criminal offenses in Virginia are resolved entirely within the Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court (JDR Court), there are certain circumstances where cases are transferred and certified to the Circuit Court for resolution. Cases transferred and certified to Circuit Court result in the juvenile being tried as an adult, and resulting convictions can have substantial and lifelong effects on the juvenile.
There are three different ways that juvenile charges can be transferred to Circuit Court for adjudication in Virginia. They are commonly referred to as Section A, Section B, and Section C transfers based on their corresponding provisions in Virginia Code § 16.1-269.1. Section A transfers can theoretically originate from any felony charge, whereas Section B and Section C transfers can only occur when the juvenile has been charged with certain serious felonies. For any transfer, the juvenile must be … Read More »
Five Things to Expect When Your Child Is Facing Criminal Charges
It can be an unsettling process when your child faces criminal charges. Many parents worry about the consequences for their child's future and are confused by both the process and the terminology surrounding the juvenile justice system. Unless you have been intimately involved in the juvenile system for a long period of time, it is very difficult for you to predict what will happen in your child's case. Having realistic expectations on what you as a parent will face in the juvenile system will ease the stress on your family and put you in a better position to protect your child's future. Here are five things to expect when your child is facing criminal charges in Virginia:

It should be no surprise that for many juveniles facing criminal charges, it is not the first … Read More »

Same-sex couples living in England and Wales can for the first time register for a legal wedding today, with the first ceremonies being held on 29 March this year, reports the BBC.
The UK Parliament voted last year to legalise same-sex marriages as they passed the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act 2013. The Act legalises same-sex marriage in the UK for the first time.
Same-sex couples who had to travel abroad to marry will also, from today, be able to have their foreign marriage legally recognised in the UK.
In future it will also be possible for those who entered into a legal 'civil partnership' to convert their relationship status to one of marriage.
Churches will be able to decide whether to opt-in to conducting same-sex services; however, part of the terms of the deal to legalise same-sex marriage saw the Churches of England and Wales locked out of performing such ceremonies.
Both churches are subject to a quadruple lock, making it illegal for them to conduct same-sex marriages, and making it impossible to challenge the inequality of this provision in UK law.
The Catholic Church will not permit same-sex marriages either.
The BBC interviewed one same-sex couple who married in Canada and who fought to have their marriage recognised by UK law for many years. Professor Celia Kitzinger, said the UK had been slow to adopt the law.
"We're the 15th country in the world, so it's been a bit slow and behind countries you would be quite surprised about," she told the BBC.
Scotland has also legalised same-sex marriage, and ceremonies are expected by the end of the year.

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT)- The "Stop the Hunger" campaign took the campus of UNCW by storm Saturday.
Hundreds of people poured into the Hanover Gymnasium to help bag and box rice to send overseas.
The event featured volunteers from local civic groups, churches, and the UNCW student body.
"I think this really gives people a chance to have a direct impact," said Bill Anlyan who oversaw the event. "I mean actually what they're doing here, is they are packaging food that's going to go into a shipping container and will be sent to an area and there will be people there who will benefit from this immensely."
Anlyan said that volunteers at the event are also collecting canned goods for the food bank and donations for a Philippines relief fund.

We wrote yesterday that Chase was waiving bank fees for hurricane victims. Huffington Post reports other banks are following suit…
Citibank is closing branches in "flood-prone areas of New York City" and will drop out-of-network ATM surcharges for customers, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Wells Fargo closed most of its branches in Maryland, Virginia, Washington, D.C., Delaware, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, Ruben Pulido, a bank spokesperson, told the Jacksonville Business Journal on Tuesday. The bank is offering relief from late fees from October 29 through November 1 and waiving out-of-network ATM fees for customers in affected areas, according to CNBC.
Bank of America — which closed all of its branches in the New York area on Monday, according to the Charlotte Business Journal — announced that customers who incurred late fees because of the storm should contact the bank to have these fees dropped. Bank of America's spokesman Mark Pipitone told Time: "We will even refund fees for customers using other banks' ATMs to withdraw cash in the hardest hit states if contacted."
Not all banks are being proactive or generous about it. Capital One is only waiving fees on a "case-by-case" basis, and TD Bank customers have to request fee waivers. But whatever your bank, it can't hurt to ask.

BERLIN, November 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
The documents for tax returns have been sent, documents are sorted and there will be a recalling of invoices paid: It's all done automatically, reliably and securely. This is what the young business "Smarchive" is promoting for its Cloud-Archive. Financial Times Deutschland reported that their idea has impressed large-scale industry so much so that the telecommunications giant Telekom has invested in the start-up. On a small-scale, this has displayed something of interest for many companies. The outsourcing of financial processes of companies is one of the themes of the 7th Annual Shared Service and Outsourcing Woche 2012 in Berlin. Experts from Germany Trade & Invest will be on site from November 20 to 23.
"The outsourcing of accounting and financial accounting is not so well established in Germany. Although the recent trend study of PAC (Pierre Audoin Consultants) has shown that one in six companies in the DACH region - Germany, Austria and Switzerland - have outsourced. However, over the next three years, a growth of around 15 percent is expected in this area," said Dr. Josefine Dutschmann of Germany Trade & Invest.
According to a study, the main reason for reluctance is due to a lack of experience with financial service providers. Of particular importance is that the company would offer individualized services. In contrast, high savings for many in the German market are not that important. Consequently, the outsourcing of services to low-wage countries is not necessary and is therefore counter-productive, as the study participants would prefer local service provisions.
"This shows that even in this sector, investing in Germany has its advantages. The Annual Forum will discuss the latest trends as the German shared services and outsourcing community meets in Berlin," said Josefine Dutschmann further, "there is no better opportunity to meet the market than this."
Germany Trade & Invest is the foreign trade and inward investment agency of the Federal Republic of Germany. The organization advises foreign companies seeking to expand into the German market. It supports German companies that seek to enter foreign markets, with foreign trade information.

shay wrote a review of Hydro Photon SteriPEN Adventurer on July 24, 2007
flawed idea?
So far this little pen has worked great for our outdoor program except for one thing about the idea of it.
How do you fill up a container from a stream without contaminating the lip of the container? Other than that, works great.

Middle East Owner Signals Early Exit From Leeds
March 20, 2013 11:03 by Reuters
The Middle Eastern owner of Leeds United has signalled that it is in talks to sell the former English Premier League soccer club it bought only in December.
Dubai-based GFH Capital purchased the club from majority shareholder Ken Bates at the end of last year after negotiations that lasted for several months.
GFH Capital board member Salem Patel told a news conference at the time that it would not spend "crazy money" to restore the Championship (second division) club to the elite Premier League.
Accounts published last month by GFH Capital's parent, Bahrain firm Gulf Finance House show that the new owner is preparing a swift exit.
"The Group has an active plan to sell its stake in LUFC Holdings Limited, and accordingly, the asset and liabilities acquired were classified as held-for-sale and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position," Gulf Finance House said in end-year financial statements dated Feb 21, 2013.
It added that it had begun negotiations related to the sale of its stake since the end of last year.
The accounts show a net cash payment of $33.226 million to buy the business last year. Reports in December said the cost of the Leeds deal could be up to 52 million pounds ($78.6 million), but that figure was not confirmed.
In its accounts, Gulf Finance House booked a goodwill gain of $10.369 million on the deal, and said "the bargain purchase was due to pressure on the sellers to exit their holdings due to change in their business plans."
Leeds, which last won the English league title in 1992, are currently in 10th place in the Championship, outside the play-off spots for a lucrative Premier League spot.
Contacted by Reuters, GFH Capital deputy chief executive David Haigh declined to comment, referring queries to the club.
The club declined direct comment but pointed to an article published in the Guardian newspaper last month which said the new owner was seeking investors and would prefer to sell a 30 percent stake. It would consider selling a majority if the buyer had the funds to bring success, the report added.
In a message to fans on Leeds' website dated Feb. 10, GFH Capital said it had rejected an offer for a majority stake in the club.
"Although we continue to seek strategic investors, we will only bring on board those who we feel can make a positive contribution to the sustainable success of Leeds United."

Trauma and Creativity
Karen Finley is known for incendiary and emotionally complex works that span the mediums of performance, music, photography, video, and installation. Her raw, transgressive pieces have provoked controversy and debate on themes of social injustice, sexual politics, and family dysfunction. In 1998, she was the plaintiff in a contentious Supreme Court case Finley v. NEA that focused on public funding and the arts—a situation that brought her work to wide audiences and unexpected contexts.
San Francisco–native Basil Twist has established himself, over a 20-year career, as one of the foremost puppeteers in the United States. His productions have toured the world and new projects have been commissioned by Lincoln Center, New York; Japan Society, New York; and Spoleto Festival, Charleston, South Carolina. Twist is renowned for having advanced new techniques and genres of performance that bring puppeteering into the realms of contemporary theater and visual art. Through both technical innovation and poetic force, his works conjure iconic worlds on the stage.
Note: This event has been moved from Tuesday, April 8 to Monday, April 14
A pivotal figure in American experimental filmmaking for over 40 years, James Benning's primary subject is the expansive and complex American landscape. His most recent work centers around two cabins that he replicated on his property in the Sierra foothills: Henry David Thoreau's shelter from Walden Pond and Ted Kaczynski's plywood shack—iconic American structures that seemingly represent utopian and dystopian poles. Benning's film Two Cabins (2011) layers perspectives and articulates intoxicating connections between the two structures.
Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle is an internationally recognized conceptual artist known for his activist-inspired public works. Producing across multiple media, Manglano-Ovalle creates technologically advanced pieces that crystallize complex political and cultural narratives into iconic, beautiful form—a thundercloud, an iceberg, Mies van der Rohe's architecture, or the fictitious Iraqi mobile biological weapons truck. His work prompts singular experiences from inverted utopias, refabricated images of war, and the insurgence of Modernism.
Throughout his career, John Miller has pursued an ambitious and cross-disciplinary investigation into so-called middlebrow culture and artifice-laden consumer societies. His recent relief sculptures and installations feature gilded junk—found Styrofoam, plastic objects, and discarded wood tables overlaid with gold leaf. The works reference the decadence of our current moment and speak to the instability of cultural and economic excess.
"When painting, I'm being pulled along like those strange attractors in chaos theory. The work makes demands and I respond until the work has a life of its own and feels somehow complete." –Terry Winters, The Paris Review
Terry Winters is widely regarded for paintings which translate systems of information—and the ways we think of them—into pictorial space. His forcefully made works combine physical gestures and cognitive images, which result in paintings that are rich in ambiguity and allusion.
Karin Sander's conceptual works range from barely-there interventions to vibrant, encompassing installations. Her discursive practice focuses our attention on seemingly inconsequential aspects of the exhibition site and to the hidden systems that surround gallery visitors. For Wall Pieces (2004), a section of plaster wall in the Guggenheim was polished to a high sheen—a work only visible from specific angles and nearly unphotographable.
Trafficking in a subtly surreal sense of illusion, British artist Alice Channer makes hard materials, such as marble and steel, appear malleable and fluid, and brings a complex sculptural presence to flat images. Her works, which often take the form of photographs printed on long narrow bolts of fabric, cascade from ceilings in cavernous rooms or undulate on the floor. As they take on architecture, the pieces address various industrial processes, from the machining of metal to the manufacture of beauty products.
Simone Leigh engages in an object-based, sculptural exploration of black female subjectivity. Her work is structured as an ongoing ethnographic practice, informed by both ancient African and African American object-making, and bridges abstracted forms with iconic images. Leigh's recent series of terracotta and porcelain female busts are noted for distorted features and delicately crafted ceramic roses that sprout up in place of the face or hair. Leigh's work has recently been presented in a solo exhibition at The Kitchen, New York.

You people really need to get satellite radio. I did, and I don't have to listen to this garbage. Armando and Ian are awful.
when his partner repeatedly said positive things about Grudens last interview with the reporters admitting his mistakes and playing the players more this year in the exhibition games and going to the shotgun Beckles said I DONT CARE WHAT HE DOES EVER SINCE HE DISRESPECTED ME A FEW YEARS AGO I CAN'T STAND THE MAN!! Well its about time Ian, instead of all the time finding fault with everything he did blaming him for all the dropped passes and errent throws and the players getting hurt...isn't that better just telling the truth that you had an agenda ever since you were let go doing the Gruden show over 2 years ago.Of course you now lose all credability and objectivity when speaking about Gruden ever again because you have admitted no matter what your gonna get on his case win lose or draw . Gruden was responsible for getting all the old players together for a reunion no other coach paid any respect to the vets before not even Dungy ....and thats why nobody wanted anything to do with you that day you lazy no talent has been.
forget talk radio ... ROCK N ROLL dude! I too stopped listening to that station in the middle of the 05 season. I could go on and on with why I think they suck...but that would be beating a dead horse.

A Mahogany tea box with walnut and banding accents. I had never worked with Mahogany so I wanted to try to make a box out of the wood I had obtained. I also obtained a small board of Spanish cedar and used this for the dividers. The top of the box was actually a mistake as I was going to have a raised panel for the center of the lid, but due to a miss cut ( I was having one of those days), I ended up using a Walnut inlay to off set the mistake in the top. The box is somewhat large and heavy for a tea box, but will redo another sometime in the future. Finish is lacquer and the bottom is lined with red felt. Thanks for looking

Great looking and crafted box. They say the mark of a good craftsman is when he can turn his mistakes into assets and you sure did that here on the top panel.

Love the box and the nice details the top panel turned out well and adds to the box design .

Great tea box. I would suffice that you could put other things in it too but you made this especially for different types of tea. :)

I enjoyed the, Honest, description. Went back and took another look, could not see where you had not planed that top to be that way all along.

D, nice save on the box. It looks great and has a nice finish. The inlay really picks up a plane design and makes it something special…good call. With a box that looks this good I would have mitered the hinges. This is a possible way to do that. As you will see it does involve some tools: Router table, straight cutting bit, straight edge, vix bit, and trisquare. Judging from your work you already have most, if not all, of these tools.
D, it would be nice for us if you worked on your home page and added a some, general location, and some name. Keep boxing and keep posting.

This is a great looking box and a nice design.

As a Brit, I have to admire something that's for tea. A lovely piece; the mahogany figure and inlay work well. As they say, 'there are no mistakes, only design changes.' All the best to you.

Mix: Seagate, NPR, Shuffle Bus, BusinessWeek
Seagate has announced the first 8GB, 1-inch hard drive, which could find its way into the next version of Apple's iPod mini. "The 8GB Seagate ST1 Series can hold up to 200 hours—or 4,000 songs—of high-quality music files (128 kbps), a breakthrough for pocket-size music players and entertainment devices," says the company. This 4,000-song number, however, uses Windows Media Audio (WMA) as its benchmarking format; iPod owners would expect 2,000 songs, instead.
National Public Radio has ended its relationship with Audible.com and is in talks with several companies about distributing its shows. "We have spoken to a number of companies, including Apple, about our next move in offering NPR programming in podcast form," NPR told The Mac Observer.
An iPod shuffle Bus was recently spotted in Toronto, Canada. It appears to have been completely repainted in Apple's lime green with black shuffle icons as a large scale mobile advertisement. [via iPoditude]
BusinessWeek's Peter Burrows says Apple will need to beef up its iPod offerings if it hopes to keep momentum going while consumers wait for Intel-based Macs. "One possibility is a higher-capacity iPod shuffle, or one with a screen. And most analysts expect that the company will unveil an iPod capable of playing video in the coming months."

question: is wma much worse quality than aac? I've just been assuming that is the case, but I don't actually know. Even if wma is a little bit worse than aac it probably is a better compression, because they're so tiny. Of course, there is also this he-aac I have heard about which is supposedly as good as aac but half the size. someone steer me straight.

I used WMA for the longest time before switching to AAC with iTunes. WMA is fine, but like most music files, 64kbps just is not a good option. Even the OGG format which arguably has the best sound 64kbps files still has a lot of artifacts, albiet very discrete ones that are hardly noticable above ambient noise while walking along the street. So while walking through busy downtown with open air headphones, yes 64kbps sounds wonderful, otherwise AAC, OGG, and WMA sounds best at 128kbps or higher, and MP3 sounds best at 192kbps or higher, for portable purposes (best sound vs. space required).

BBC Panorama's site on The Accused has real video footage from the program, an archived forum with reporter Fergal Keane and a transcript of the program.
At a meeting of the Cabinet on 28 September 1982, the Government of Israel resolved to establish a commission of inquiry into all the facts and factors connected with the atrocity carried out by a unit of the Lebanese Forces against the civilian population in the Shatilla and Sabra camps. The Kahan Commission report signed on 7 February 1983 determined that the massacres at Sabra and Shatilla were carried out by a Phalangist unit, acting on its own. It also found that although no Israeli was directly responsible for the events which occurred in the camps, Israel had indirect responsibility for the massacre since the Israel Defence Forces held the area. Mr. Sharon was found responsible for ignoring the danger of bloodshed and revenge when he approved the entry of the Phalangists into the camps as well as not taking appropriate measures to prevent bloodshed.
International humanitarian law is the body of rules which, in wartime, protects people who are not or are no longer participating in the hostilities. Its central purpose is to limit and prevent human suffering in times of armed conflict. The rules are to be observed not only by governments and their armed forces, but also by armed opposition groups and any other parties to a conflict.

MONTREAL, QC - Matt Fraser scored 1:19 into overtime and the Boston Bruins grabbed a 1-0 win over the Montreal Canadiens in Game 4 of this Eastern Conference semifinal series.
Playing in his first-ever playoff game, Fraser's heroics helped the Bruins even this set at two games apiece after the Bruins dropped a 4-2 decision on Tuesday.
Game 5 of this best-of-seven set will be played in Boston on Saturday.
