Couple the lack of willpower to the uncertainty of the future and we can find plenty of excuses not to set any New Year goals. We live in a fast pace and ever-changing world. No one knows what will happen twelve hours from now much less twelve months. The scriptures even bring up the question, "What do you know about tomorrow? How can you be so sure about your life? It is nothing more than mist that appears for only a little while before it disappears" (James 4:14 CEV). If the future is filled with uncertainty then why waste energy today trying to change tomorrow?
Uncertainty of the future keeps many of us from participating on the journey of change. Life is filled with uncertainty. As a parent you try to create a household with structure and predictability but when you got four or five different personalities living under the same roof there is always an element of surprise. Marketplace changes at such a rapid rate that we are fearful of keeping our jobs. Relationships can leave us disappointed. If you are a college student it is unclear if there is a job out there waiting for you when you graduate. Uncertainty creates fear. Fear pushes us back.
It is not that we lack the desire to change. All of us could look back at this past year and wish there were things we could change. There are situations we wish were different. Relationships that was deeper. Finances that was more solid. Spiritual life that was more grounded. What if I told you that you can change? What if I said there is a way to make changes in your life in light of all the uncertainty? What if 2013 could be different from 2012? What would you say if I told you it took only focusing on one word?
In Genesis 12 Abram is asked to leave his country, his community, and his family to go to a place that God will show him. Talk about uncertainty. God is saying to this man who should be thinking about front porches and rocking chairs leave everything. Leave everything that makes you who you are, that gives you meaning, that enables you to feed and care for your family and come with me. God tells Abram, "Come with me but I am not going to tell you where we are going until we get there." Abram is asked to leave everything that is familiar and journey to something entirely unknown. Journey from what he knew to what he did not know, from what he had to what he did not have, from the comfortable to the strange and unpredictable.
Abram is being called out into nothing but a promise. As Abram journeyed out of the safety and comfort of his home to an unfamiliar territory it was the promise that kept him walking. It was the word promise that kept him moving forward. When a drought came and they had to hang out in Egypt it was God's promise that remained. When it looked like the land was not a possibility it was God's promise that held his faith. When he couldn't figure out how he was going to be a father to a multitude it was the promise that kept him going. Abram acted whole heartily without absolute certainty because of a word. The word for Abram was promise.
We too can face an uncertain future by making the journey about one word. We can experience growth in life by concentrating on one word. If we are going to write a better story in 2013 we must deal with uncertainty. But how? We listen for a word. We pay attention to what is God's word for us this year.
Imagine if we all focused on our one word. Imagine if we took seriously God's word for our life. In life we can afford to be uncertain, but we cannot afford to be unclear. Life is full of uncertainty. Ask Abraham about uncertainty. But that doesn't mean we have to remain unclear. By focusing on God's word for us we are turning our attention on what we want for our future instead of what we don't want. Let your one word guide you into a better year even in the face of uncertainty.
What is your word for 2013?

There are a few certainties in life: Taxes suck, we all die, Alabama will always play defense and run the ball, and, so long as Sarah Patterson has blood in her veins, the gymnastics team will advance to the NCAAs.
As Aaron Suttles (rightly) states:
Not one time since 1983 has the Crimson Tide failed to make it to the Championships. Not one time has Alabama slipped up. Not once has it fell short. Not once has UA not been competing for it all at the end of the season. *** That, my friends, is remarkable. Patterson doesn't need me to extol her coaching legacy. That has been set for a long time. Her accomplishments as the coach of the Crimson Tide speak for themselves
(ed. Besides 28 straight appearances in the NCAA championships, Patterson has won 4 NCs at the helm of the Bama squad, AND single-handedly exposed Suzanne Yoculan for the hydra-headed Shelob she truly was, thus hastening her departure to Tartarus*) .
Hats off to Patterson and good luck to the #3-seed Alabama Crimson Tide in Gainesville on Thursday as they try to bring home our 5th title.
*I despise that woman: She was like the old-school Steve Spurrier of collegiate gymnastics. Check this out "(Patterson) gets all my quotes and blows them up," Yoculan said. "She spends so much time worrying about me. She needs to worry about her. Maybe then she'll beat us."...Hell, she even got reprimanded by the Conference for this quote, when Patterson complained about the Dawgs not using the new bars, thus screwing up our shorter girls, " Losers make excuses; winners make adjustments,"

Not all rumors are false. It's a rumor to you until you know for sure whether it is true or false. Therefore it was a rumor to those people until they got your confirmation. You probably aren't the center of attention and people are not expected to know your sexual preferences.

Amid the hubbub of trying to single out a nominee for the 2012 presidential election, some are thinking of a bigger picture — who the candidates' potential cabinet members will be. Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) has been his state's executive for a decade, so some of his longest-standing advisers would surely garner consideration for cabinet seats if he were to be nominated and elected.
The man who could end up in a powerful seat is Perry's long-time top environmental head, Bryan Shaw — a climate-change skeptic.
Mother Jones reported that Shaw, the Texas A & M engineer who has headed the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality since 2007, has made statements doubting climate change and allying himself with pollution-creating industries.
Shaw and the TCEQ are in charge of issuing permits to energy plants in the course of "protect[ing] our state's human and natural resources consistent with sustainable economic development."
Shaw said during his confirmation hearing that he doesn't "believe [climate change] is fully vetted."
Texas ranks first in the nation in carbon dioxide emissions.
Perry, together with Shaw, has used climate change skepticism to block environmental laws with potential to curtail airborne pollution such as smog, and instead favored politics and economic savings.
Jim Marston, head of the Texas office of the Environmental Defense Fund, told Mother Jones that Shaw is "aggressively anti-health" and "hostile to the environment."
"He just spouts anti-science ideology."

Now that the Carmelo Anthony trade to the New York Knicks is finally completed, we can finally focus on what the rest of the teams will do at the NBA Trade Deadline. The Anthony saga was very clearly holding up any potential movement that would occur. Now that it's over, we can start to consider which teams may be active this week.
Here is Part 5 of a team-by-team breakdown of what we should expect as the NBA Trade Deadline draws near. We already discussed the Atlantic, Central, Southeast and Southwest Divisions. Now, let's move on to the Northwest, featuring a young team that's being way too conservative, an older team being too aggressive, a desperate team trying to keep its superstar and, oh yeah, the Nuggets.
Oklahoma City Thunder
Record: 35-19, fourth in the West.
Priority: Contend and maintain the young core.
Holes/weaknesses: Center, interior defense, toughness
Trade assets: Morris Peterson and Nenad Kristic's expiring contract, Jeff Green, James Harden, Cole Aldrich, Eric Maynor, 2011 first-round pick, 2012 first-round pick from the Clippers.
Other pieces involved in rumors: N/A
Targets: N/A
Summary: The Thunder are once again quiet at the trade deadline, and this time, it's getting a little ridiculous. They desperately need size, and would be an ideal fit for Nene, for example, but they haven't popped up in any trade rumors involving him. They seem to be content to let their young core continue to grow, except the honeymoon stage is going to run out at some point . They have a chest of assets and two great players, but have to make some sacrifices to upgrade right now. However, they seem content to stand pat and hope natural progression pushes their core further in the playoffs.
If I were GM, I would ...: Start trading for some veterans. They, and not the Rockets, should be leading the chase for Nene. They should look around the league and see if there's any size available. They should also try to cash in on Jeff Green now instead of having to overpay him in the summer. I'd also look for a shooting guard upgrade on Thabo Sefolosha, who remains an excellent defender, but is a self-check on offense.
Portland Trail Blazers
Record: 32-24, fifth in the West.
Priority: Unclear. They could try to go for upgrades now, or they could rebuild. A recent winning streak may indicate the former strategy wins out.
Holes/weaknesses: A penetrating wing player who can create offense, point-guard defense.
Trade assets: Joel Przybilla's expiring contract, Andre Miller's semi-expiring contract (non-guaranteed next year), Greg Oden's expiring contract, Rudy Fernandez, Dante Cunningham, Patty Mills, $2.29 million trade exception, 2011 first-round pick, 2011 first-round pick from New Orleans.
Other pieces involved in rumors: Marcus Camby
Targets: Devin Harris, Gerald Wallace, Troy Murphy, Ramon Sessions, Anthony Morrow
Summary: The Blazers are being typically active, though it seems like they just pop up in rumors that have little substance. Still, they're in an interesting spot. A recent winning streak, coupled with the emergence of LaMarcus Aldridge has likely convinced the team they don't need to blow it up in the wake of devastating injuries to Brandon Roy and Greg Oden. They've been interested in Harris for years, and are rumored to want him again.
If I were GM, I would ...: Make the trade for Harris. The Blazers need a point guard that can get into the lane, and Harris is the best one available. They were talking about sending Miller and Przybilla to the Nets, which would be a steal for the Blazers.
Denver Nuggets
Record: 32-25, seventh in the West.
Priority: Rebuild, now that Anthony is gone.
Holes/weaknesses: N/A
Trade assets: J.R. Smith's expiring contract, Kenyon Martin's expiring contract, a bunch of the guys they just got from New York.
Other pieces involved in rumors: Nene (player option for $8 million next year), Al Harrington (four years, $27 million remaining), Raymond Felton (one year, $7.5 million left)
Targets: Draft picks.
Summary: The Nuggets finally traded Anthony. Now, they want to rebuild, and need to decide on some keepers. They are committed to keeping Nene around, which is a smart move even though he's not getting any younger. Otherwise? Everyone except Ty Lawson is potentially available. The Nuggets could move recently-acquired Danilo Gallinari, Raymond Felton and Timofey Mozgov for draft picks, and they could elect to move Arron Afflalo and Wilson Chandler before they become free agents this summer. Expect them to remain active through Thursday.
If I were GM, I would ...: Keep Lawson, Nene and Gallinari (don't trade him), and commit to moving everyone else for draft picks. New Jersey has several picks, and they may need Felton if they trade Devin Harris.
Utah Jazz
Record: 31-26, tied for eighth in the West.
Priority: Contend before Deron Williams skips town.
Holes/weaknesses: Outside shooting, defensive rebounding, interior defense.
Trade assets: Andrei Kirilenko's expiring contract, Gordon Hayward, two small trade exceptions (under $1.5 million)
Other pieces involved in rumors: N/A.
Targets: N/A
Summary: The Jazz are stuck in a rough spot. They are struggling, their star player could flee elsewhere and they don't have much to trade. Kirilenko's expiring contract could fetch them a long-term piece, but he's also a key player right now. They have no pick either, since it went to Minnesota in the Al Jefferson trade.
If I were GM, I would ...: Wait until the offseason. Alternatively, do the trade SBNation.com colleague Evan Dunlap proposes and bring in Rip Hamilton for Kirilenko.
Minnesota Timberwolves
Record: 13-43, last in the West.
Priority: Add young talent
Holes/weaknesses: Everything
Trade assets: Had cap space, but used it to acquire Anthony Randolph at the cost of taking on Eddy Curry; 2011 first-round picks from themselves, Utah and Memphis.
Other pieces involved in rumors:
Targets: Danilo Gallinari.
Summary: The Timberwolves continue their perpetual rebuilding, playing the role of the money broker while acquiring yet another raw forward in Anthony Randolph. Acquiring Randolph cost them the cap space needed to acquire players in a salary dump, and Randolph, a great talent that has flamed out in two up-tempo settings already, was their only reward. They do have a lot of draft picks that could be used to acquire young players.
If I were GM, I would ...: Trade those latter two draft picks for established young talent like Danilo Gallinari, Marcus Thornton or others.

Top 5-Year CD Continues at Mountain America Credit Union in UT, NV, NM & AZ - Easy Membership
Mountain America Credit Union still has a competitive 5-year CD and IRA CD rate. It's now 2.80% APY. The rate has gone down since my last post, but it remains competitive compared to what other banks and credit unions are offering. For example, the best 5-year CD from an internet bank has a yield 2.75% APY (at Sallie Mae Bank). The credit union's CD has a minimum deposit of $500. This yield is listed in the credit union's current rates page as of 10/19/2010
The credit union used to offer some competitive shorter-term CD rates, but these are no longer noteworthy. It also used to have a very mild early withdrawal penalty. They made changes to their website, and I could no longer find any mention of the early withdrawal penalty. In August I emailed the credit union, and I found out that they have increased the penalty. According to the credit union rep, the "penalty for early withdrawal on a 5 year term deposit is 180 days worth of interest."
Credit union membership is open to members of the American Consumer Council. Council membership costs $12, and is open to anyone. This council is listed in the credit union's SEG Affiliated Associations page. For more ways to qualify for membership, please refer to the credit union's Become a Member page. In my recent email to this credit union, I mentioned that I was interested in becoming a member via this council. Here's the reply I received:
We would be happy to take a membership application for you. If you have a branch near you please visit them with your picture ID. They will need $25.00 to get the account open and going. If you plan on opening a checking account that will require a minimum of $100.00.
If you are not near a branch location you can apply online or call us at 1-800-748-4302.
Large Branch Network
For those who prefer to open a CD at a branch, Mountain American has many branches in the western states. Branches are located throughout Utah. Also, branches are located in Mesa, Arizona; Las Vegas and Sparks, Nevada; and in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
The credit union has an overall health score at DepositAccounts.com of 3 out of 5 with a Texas Ratio of 32.05% (above average) based on June 2010 data. Please refer to our financial overview of Mountain American Credit Union for more details. The credit union is federally insured by the NCUA (Charter # 24692). It's a large credit union with $2.8 billion in assets.

Politics is Money
Former and current BN leaders have admitted that UMNO and MCA have used money in questionable ways during internal and legislative elections, according to a new report on political financing.
"There can be no escaping from the fact that politics is money. You see, without money you just cannot move," said former premier and UMNO president Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
He was speaking in an interview last year with Transparency International-Malaysia (TI-M), which published this in a report Reforming Political Financing in Malaysia, launched last Sunday.
Because of the inherent link between politics and money, Mahathir said UMNO has had to raise money from members of the public, resulting in rent-seeking behaviour.
"People in Malaysia don't need much persuasion. They believe if they contribute, they might get some leverage," said Mahathir, who headed UMNO for 22 years.
"So when election comes, people just come… and the money taken is sometimes without receipt. "So, it depends on whether you're going to be honest or not." Mahathir went on to claim that vote-buying has been prevalent during the party's triennial elections and accused "practically everyone" elected into the supreme council of using such means.
"So you can say that UMNO central committee is actually made up of corrupt people," he said. Mahathir then related his own experience in 2006, when his bid to become a delegate to the party AGM that year was allegedly thwarted due to vote-buying by his opponents.
He was referring to his failed attempt to be voted in as one of the seven delegates from the Kubang Pasu division, which he had led for more than three decades.
"I lost. Because UMNO headquarters sent money to pay all those people not to vote for me. The division leader got RM2,000, each member RM200. I was disgusted, you know? RM200, I'm so cheap?" Mahathir said tongue-in-cheek.
"How much can you buy with RM200, how much food, how many plates of mee? You sell the power to determine the leader for RM200?"
Warlord Contractors
The TI-M report includes excerpts of interview with former finance minister and UMNO treasurer Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah, who spoke on how the party has fed rent seekers through government contracts.
He argued that, because the contracts usually have to change a number of hands, profits would trickle down. This has led to shoddy work in infrastructure projects.
"All these hospitals cracking up, stadiums collapsing, are all the result of warlord contractors," he said.
"It's not always a result of corruption. They could be due to bad design, etc, because there's little margin for contractors to make because the top has been creamed off by these greedy politicians. It breeds itself.
"If you just became a warlord, and you don't give money, they are not interested in you. You want to amass funds, illegally, to feed your followers."
MCA leader Dr Chua Soi Lek, when he was party No 2 last year, revealed that many BN candidates spend more during a general election than the ceiling stipulated in election laws.
"The limit on candidates' election expenses is RM200,000, but the official accounting does not reflect the true spending," he said.
"Usually a candidate spends between RM500,000 to RM1 million during campaigning."
In the 234-page report,TI-M criticised UMNO and its BN allies for its business interests as well as its control of media organisations.
It also made 19 recommendations to stem corruption and improve transparency of political financing.

The ECU men's and women's basketball teams start their 2013-14 campaigns on Friday at Minges Coliseum. The Lady Pirates play Virginia Intermont at 12 p.m. and the men host NC Wesleyan at 7 p.m.
Last season was one of the most exciting and successful years in ECU basketball history.
The men had their first 20 win season since 1954 and won the CIT, but this season you might have to temper those expectations because it's all new faces. In fact, 80 percent of the ECU scoring and rebounding from last season has either graduated or left the team. Among those noticeably absent, Miguel Paul and Maurice Kemp.
No doubt things are different, in fact coach Jeff Lebo told us Thursday his new look team is struggling to put the ball in the basket. That shouldn't be a problem in their first couple of games though. The Pirates play NC Wesleyan, UNCG and Chowan in their first three games.
"My message to this team is; what happened last year is last year," said ECU men's basketball Head Coach Jeff Lebo. "This is a new team, new expectations, new goals it was fun last year but last year is last year. Our focus now is on what we need to do to get better this year."
The ECU women's basketball program is in a similar situation to the men. After a WNIT bid the ladies lost a lot of talent to graduation. But Conference USA Coach of the Year, Heather Macy, is ready to lead her new look Pirates.
They play Friday and Sunday in Greenville and we'll have all the highlights from both games here on 9 on Your Side!

4.16/5 rDev -9.6%
First had: on tap at Earth Eagle
This was really interesting. The beer was labeled as an "imperial gruit," and was supposedly inspired by DFH's World Wide Stout. Gruits tend to have unconventional ingredients relative to your more "typical" beer styles, but unfortunately I can't seem to find any info on what particular specialty ingredients were used to make this one.
This poured a deep dark brown, almost black and nearly opaque, with a very thin layer of off-white head that dissipated almost completely. Lots of spice in the nose, maybe ginger, nutmeg, licorice, sarsaparilla, to name a few. Taste was rich and quite unique, even compared to other gruits I've had. I'd be willing to bet that there is most likely sarsaparilla in this beer, as that flavor jumped out the most on my palate, nutmeg, anise, allspice, cola, maybe a bit of vanilla and cane sugar, and some dark malty chewiness in the background. Body was about medium, and quite appropriately so, carbonation was medium to low, the higher alcohol was quite well-hidden. A very interesting brew overall, and one of the best I've had from the state of New Hampshire.

With the 2014 Winter Olympics kicking off in Sochi, Russia, people in southwest Montana have their eyes on future Winter Olympics. FOX Montana's Cody Butler tells us the Big Sky Committee is hoping Bozeman might be in the running to host the Winter Games of 2026.
The Big Sky Committee for the Winter Games headed up by Jon Greenspon is hoping to bring the Olympics to southwest Montana, specifically Bozeman and Big Sky Resort. The committee's website states it proposes having three venue centers, the Mountain Cluster and Valley Cluster. It says the Mountain Cluster is where the snow events would take place while the Valley Cluster would be home to the ice events and award ceremonies for the games.
Bozeman Economic Development Director Brit Fontenot says the city has not been approached by anyone wanting to host the Olympics, but says it would be great for the area.
"Bozeman hosting a Winter Olympics would have an enormous financial impact for the community, billions of dollars turning over in the town," says Fontenot.
Big Sky Resort officials are aware of the committee and say they have the terrain, but couldn't comment any further.
The host city for the 2026 Winter Games will be announced in 2019.

UMD law students travel to Haiti on fact-finding trip
August 23, 2013
Note: This is an excerpt from a piece written by Irene Scharf, director of UMass Law's Immigration Law Clinic, and Justin Steele, executive articles editor of the UMass Law Review. The piece was featured in the Standard Times; find a link to the full text article below.
The mission of UMass School of Law, the only public law school in Massachusetts, is to create "justice centered lawyers." It was therefore no surprise that many students jumped at the chance to witness the treatment of Haitian immigrants in the Dominican Republic during the 2013 Spring Break. The trip meant relinquishing a week of relaxation, something precious to law students, and traveling to a poor country where most of us had never been. But guiding us the whole way were the Director of the UMass Immigration Law Clinic, "Doña" Irene Scharf; and Fred Rooney, a Fulbright Scholar and now director of the International Justice Center for Post-Graduate Development at Touro Law Center in New York.
The trip began with a flight that arrived at the Santo Domingo airport at 3 a.m., followed by an 8-hour van ride to the seaside town of Pedernales. We spent a few days there learning about the problems plaguing Haitians in the Dominican Republic. One of the most striking events was visiting a prison filled with Haitian immigrants. It was cramped, dark, and hot. There was no running water, no functioning bathroom facilities, no right to food or water, and no right to communicate with the outside world. More

20 Tough Questions For the Fire Chief: Question 7
Many of the installments of this series refer to the new challenges that have been placed upon the fire service and, more specifically, how to pay for those services. Many government agencies – federal, state and local – are critically examining their...

It may make sense, based on the topography and layout of your community and the location of stations, to respond with smaller vehicles.
Based upon your review you may find it beneficial to send smaller trucks, with less people to minor events, but will this be more efficient and save money? Let's look.
One argument often cited is that smaller fire apparatus cost less to operate than larger apparatus. Generally, this would be an accurate statement when comparing the initial cost of both vehicle types. Additionally, we need to measure and report the day-to-day operating costs. Below is an example comparing two years of data gathered during a trail evaluating a change in response protocol; reducing the usage of larger apparatus on certain types of calls.
Type Allocation (yr) Part/Labor Fuel Cost Miles/Hr. Operation Cost Mile/Hr
Eng. 21 $37,000 $11,461 $5,375 11,159 $1.51
$45,000 $10,231 $6,788 11,664 $1.46
Utility 21 $2,446 $11,461 $1,130 4,310 .53
$2,778 $10,230 $1,868 3,257 .54
Source: City of Plymouth,MN, Public Works Department, 2012
A comparison between two different apparatus types is shown. Metrics can help when evaluating changes to response protocol. RED data indicates fleet data for both Engine 21 (1,250 gpm/500 gal) and Utility 21 (four-door extended-bed pickup) for 2010. Black indicates data for 2011.
It's important to know the significance and limitations of your data. For example, fuel costs tend to fluctuate as well as increases in allocation fees due to labor cost and inflation.
Consideration should also be given to the type of vehicle in which to respond when evaluating smaller vehicles staffed with less personnel. Technology and engineering available in today's fire apparatus allows for the effective use of smaller vehicles in multi-mission roles. An example may be a mini-pumper equipped with a compressed-air foam system (CAFS).
Determining what type of response to send the smaller vehicle too largely depends upon a thorough review of your call volume, event type patterns, staffing and expectations. Also, consider outcomes – not all calls for service require four responders. Identify which types of calls could be effectively handled with two responders. A sample matrix is provided. Such protocols should account for local circumstances and following a risk assessment. This is not a one-solution-fits-all proposition.
This operating guideline establishes procedures for responding to calls for service, type of response and response mode. Responders shall conduct an ongoing risk-vs.-benefit analysis for every call – minimizing risk through analyzing and matching call type to response mode and resource allocation. Conditions, time of day and call information, staffing and crew integrity shall be considered when responding to a call for service. A "routine" (non-emergency) response is preferred due to the reduced risk of accident. The officer may upgrade or reduce the response based upon prevailing information.
Innovative solutions
When evaluating changes to response protocols it's important to give consideration to the culture of your organization. If your department has a history of continuous improvement through self-evaluation, such changes will be taken in stride as an expected response to economic pressures.
Where members are stuck on traditional models and modes of thinking it can be difficult to try new approaches. This subjects them to criticism of being inflexible and stuck in old ways of thinking and operating. Fire departments with cultures that foster innovative solutions to challenging problems will prove they are resilient and responsive to the tough questions from elected and appointed officials.

Many of you will have heard by now that the Globe and Mail has decided not to continue its annual student survey, which we at HESA ran for the last three years. The newspaper will continue publishing the annual Canadian University Report, but will now do so without any quantitative ratings.
Some institutions will probably greet this news with a yawn, but for a number of others, the development represents a real blow. There were a number of institutions who based a large part of their marketing campaigns around the satisfaction data, and the loss of this data source makes it more difficult for them to differentiate themselves.
When the survey started a decade ago, many were skeptical about the relevance of satisfaction data. But slowly, as year followed year, and as schools more or less kept the same scores in each category year after year, people began to realize that satisfaction data was pretty reliable, and might even be indicative of something more interesting. And as it became apparent that satisfaction scores actually had a reasonably good correlation with things like "student engagement" (basically: a disengaged student is an unhappy student), it also became apparent that "satisfaction" was an indicator which was both simple and meaningful.
Sure, it wasn't a perfect measure. In particular, institutional size clearly had a negative correlation with satisfaction. And there were certainly some extra-educational factors which tended to affect scores, be it students' own personalities, or even just geography – Toronto students, as we know, are just friggin' miserable, no matter where they're enrolled. But, when read within its proper context (mainly, by restricting comparisons to similarly-sized institutions), it was helpful.
Still, what made the data valid and useful to institutions was precisely what eventually killed it as a publishable product. The year-to-year reliability assured institutions that something real was being measured, but it also meant that new results rarely generated any surprises. Good headlines are hard to come by when the data doesn't change much, and that poses a problem for a daily newspaper. The Globe stuck with the experiment for a decade, and good on them for doing so; but in the end, the lack of novelty made continuation a tough sell.
So is this the end of satisfaction ratings? A number of institutions who use the data have contacted us to say that they'd like the survey to continue. Over the next week or so, we'll be in intensive talks with institutions to see if this is possible. Stay tuned – or, if you'd like to drop us a note with your views, you can do so at, email@example.com.

Our Green Project
At City Recital Hall Angel Place we're all very aware that it is our responsibility to play a role in combating climate change. As individuals and as an organisation, we're committed to working towards a vibrant, healthy and clean environment in which to live and work. We understand we will be judged by our actions and so we are seeking to:
- Improve energy and water efficiency
- Reduce demand for natural resources
- Reduce waste and increase recycling
- Reduce pollution and emissions to air, land and water
After a lot of consideration, we've chosen internationally respected, Australia-based, carbon reduction and management company Climate Friendly™, to help implement a long-term carbon footprint measurement and offset strategy.
"By measuring and offsetting their carbon footprint, City Recital Hall Angel Place is demonstrating its commitment to a triple-bottom line approach to business, where the planet, our community and profits are equally important".
Climate Friendly CEO, Freddy Sharpe
As part of our strategy to offset our emissions we have allocated a proportion of the hiring fee to the purchase of renewable energy carbon credits. This allows our hirers to offset the emissions generated by their event.
We believe that hirers can gain significant advantage through proactively communicating their climate change action to stakeholders. We actively encourage customers to develop a communication activity around offsetting emissions associated with their business or event.
We are going to continue to work with Climate Friendly to benchmark our carbon footprint reductions through carbon accounting and regular measurement. The graph above shows how many green house gas emissions we have offset to date (click on image to enlarge).
If you'd like to play a role in combating climate change, why not off-set your own personal emissions? Climate Friendly can help: https://climatefriendly.com/shop.

By Terry Houston, PP Emerita, 2012-2013 Chair, NALS Ethics Series Task Force
The NALS Ethics Series is taking a new tact this year, redirecting its focus to current ethics issues that apply to everyone employed in the legal industry, lawyers and nonlawyers alike. What has been interesting about the research for this article is the recognition that the concept of ethics is an ongoing and evolving consideration, a concept that does not always relate to the viewpoint of "new." Our ethical guidelines have been with us long before the American Bar Association (ABA) first proposed its Canons of Professional Ethics (Canons) in 1908, which were revised in 1969 as the Model Code of Professional Responsibility, and revised again in 1983, 2002, and 2007 as the Model Rules of Professional Conduct (Model Rules). The original canons and the modifications that followed are the ABA's effort to concisely define the concept of ethics and to describe it in words that we can all understand.
Ronald Rotunda offered insightful comment in the preface to his eighth edition of Professional Responsibility (a NALS-designated study volume for PLS and PP candidates): "It is said that the future will bring us not only more change but also an increase in the rate of change." We can appreciate the wisdom of his remark when we note that the initial version of the Canons was observed unchanged for 61 years but, once they were revised in 1969, there was seen a need to revise them again after only 14 years, in 1983, into the current form of the Model Rules. Those revisions were observed intact for 19 years until the ABA revised them in 2002 and again five years later in 2007. Since 2007, revisions have been adopted nearly every year.
After having seen the need for two sets of changes in 2009, then ABA president Carolyn B. Lamm established the Commission on Ethics 20/20 (Commission) "to perform a thorough review of the Model Rules and of the United States system of lawyer regulation in the context of advances in technology and global legal practice developments."1 As of May 2012, the Commission had proposed changes in six primary areas of the Model Rules:
- Technology and Confidentiality
- Technology and Client Development
- Outsourcing
- Practice Pending Admission
- Admission by Motion
- Model Rule 1.6 (Detection of Conflicts of Interest)
In August 2012, at the ABA's Annual Meeting in Chicago, the ABA's policy-making House of Delegates voted to approve changes in all six areas. Here is a brief digest of the changes involving technology. We will review other changes in future editions of "What's New in Ethics."
Rule 1.0 Terminology. The word "e-mail" has been replaced by the phrase "electronic communications" in Subsection (n):
(n) ''Writing'' or ''written'' denotes a tangible or electronic record of a communication or representation, including handwriting, typewriting, printing, photostating, photography, audio or video recording, and electronic communications. A ''signed'' writing includes an electronic sound, symbol, or process attached to or logically associated with a writing and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the writing.
The word "materials" has been replaced by the phrase "information, including information in electronic form" in the conflicts screening subsection:
To implement, reinforce, and remind all affected lawyers of the presence of the screening, it may be appropriate for the firm to undertake such procedures as a written undertaking by the screened lawyer to avoid any communication with other firm personnel and any contact with any firm files or other information, including information in electronic form, relating to the matter, written notice and instructions to all other firm personnel forbidding any communication with the screened lawyer relating to the matter, denial of access by the screened lawyer to firm files or other information, including information in electronic form, relating to the matter, and periodic reminders of the screen to the screened lawyer and all other firm personnel.
Rule 1.1 Competence. The phrase "including the benefits and risks associated with relevant technology," was added to Subsection [6] requiring lawyers to keep abreast of changes in the law and its practice.
Rule 1.4 Communication. The sentence "Client telephone calls should be promptly returned or acknowledged" was replaced by the sentence "A lawyer should promptly respond to or acknowledge client communications."
Rule 1.6 Confidentiality. Subsection (c) was added: "A lawyer shall make reasonable efforts to prevent the inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure of, or unauthorized access to, information relating to the representation of a client."
The accompanying commentary Acting Competently to Preserve Confidentiality was significantly augmented to ensure the safeguarding of client information from unauthorized access by third parties:
[16] Paragraph (c) requires a lawyer to act competently to safeguard information relating to the representation of a client against unauthorized access by third parties and against inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure by the lawyer or other persons or entities who are participating in the representation of the client or who are subject to the lawyer's supervision. See Rules 1.1, 5.1, and 5.3. The unauthorized access to, or the inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure of, confidential information does not constitute a violation of paragraph (c) if the lawyer has made reasonable efforts to prevent the access or disclosure. Factors to be considered in determining the reasonableness of the lawyer's efforts include, but are not limited to, the sensitivity of the information, the likelihood of disclosure if additional safeguards are not employed, the cost of employing additional safeguards, the difficulty of implementing the safeguards, and the extent to which the safeguards adversely affect the lawyer's ability to represent clients (e.g., by making a device or important piece of software excessively difficult to use). A client may require the lawyer to implement special security measures not required by this Rule or may give informed consent to forgo security measures that would otherwise be required by this Rule. Whether a lawyer may be required to take additional steps to safeguard a client's information in order to comply with other law, such as state and federal laws that govern data privacy or that impose notification requirements upon the loss of, or unauthorized access to, electronic information, is beyond the scope of these Rules. For a lawyer's duties when sharing information with nonlawyers outside the lawyer's own firm, see Rule 5.3, Comments [3]-[4].
Rule 4.4 Respect for Rights of Third Persons. Subsection (b) was amended to include the phrase "or electronically stored information" with regard to documents:
(b) A lawyer who receives a document or electronically stored information relating to the representation of the lawyer's client and knows or reasonably should know that the document or electronically stored information was inadvertently sent shall promptly notify the sender.
The accompanying Commentary was also significantly augmented to encompass electronic information:
[2] Paragraph (b) recognizes that lawyers sometimes receive a document or electronically stored information that was mistakenly sent or produced by opposing parties or their lawyers. A document or electronically stored information is inadvertently sent when it is accidentally transmitted, such as when an email or letter is misaddressed or a document or electronically stored information is accidentally included with information that was intentionally transmitted. If a lawyer knows or reasonably should know that such a document or electronically stored information was sent inadvertently, then this Rule requires the lawyer to promptly notify the sender in order to permit that person to take protective measures. Whether the lawyer is required to take additional steps, such as returning the document or electronically stored information, is a matter of law beyond the scope of these Rules, as is the question of whether the privileged status of a document or electronically stored information has been waived. Similarly, this Rule does not address the legal duties of a lawyer who receives a document or electronically stored information that the lawyer knows or reasonably should know may have been wrongfully inappropriately obtained by the sending person. For purposes of this Rule, ''document or electronically stored information'' includes, in addition to paper documents, email and other forms of electronically stored information, including embedded data (commonly referred to as "metadata"), that is subject to being read or put into readable form. Metadata in electronic documents creates an obligation under this Rule only if the receiving lawyer knows or reasonably should know that the metadata was inadvertently sent to the receiving lawyer.
[3] Some lawyers may choose to return a document or electronically stored information unread, for example, when the lawyer learns before receiving it that it was inadvertently sent to the wrong address. Where a lawyer is not required by applicable law to do so, the decision to voluntarily return such a document or electronically stored information is a matter of professional judgment ordinarily reserved to the lawyer. See Rules 1.2 and 1.4.
In their report to the ABA House of Delegates, Commission co-chair attorneys Jamie S. Gorlick and Michael Traynor commented that though advances in technology have enabled lawyers in all practice settings to provide more efficient and effective legal services, some forms of technology present certain risks, particularly with regard to clients' confidential information. One of the objectives of the Commission has been to develop guidance for lawyers regarding their ethical obligations to protect this information when using technology and to update the Model Rules to reflect the realities of a digital age.
In addition to recommending these modifications to the Model Rules, the Commission also recommended asking the ABA Center for Professional Responsibility to work with relevant entities within the ABA to create a centralized user-friendly website with continuously updated, detailed information about confidentiality-related ethics issues arising from lawyers' use of technology. These resources are now available to ABA members at http://www.americanbar.org/groups/departments_offices/legal_technology_resources.html and http://apps.americanbar.org/dch/committee.cfm?com=EP024500.

SCOTUS: Guantanamo Detainees' Rights
by Ashley Grashaw
Hear this
This text will be replaced
Explore this
Reported by
Ashley Grashaw
Today the Supreme Court heard arguments about whether detainees held at Guantanamo Bay, the U.S. base in Cuba, have the right to challenge their imprisonment in federal court. Back in October of 2006, Congress passed a law which said that federal courts do not have jurisdiction in detainee cases. So as it stands now, detainees face indefinite detention with no concrete way to challenge their status as enemy combatants. About three hundred men are being held at the base, and many have been there for as long as six years. This case represents an attempt to balance prisoners' individual rights with the desire to prevent terrorism. We'll hear from both sides of the argument today on the show. So tell us: what rights should detainees have?

Alexandra Sternberg
As an associate at the Ankin Law Office, Alexandra Sternberg is following in the footsteps of highly accomplished parents. Her father is a well respected employment litigator who has made his career defending wrongfully terminated workers in court. Her mother holds a Masters in Business and works on behalf of the employees of her company for over 30 years. With her parents as her role models Allie understands the challenges people face when an employer or corporate system is taking advantage of them.
Allie comes from a Fighting Illini family and followed her parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and sister in graduating with honors from the University of Illinois. With four generations of the Sternberg family living in Chicago-land she returned home to attend law school at Loyola University Chicago. Allie's work ethic inspired by her parents is unparallel and second to none.
During law school Alexandra made dean's list each semester, was published by the school's health law journal, was a teaching assistant for legal writing classes, volunteered as an advocate for low income tax payers in dealings with the IRS, and obtained a certificate in advocacy. During this superior law school performance she worked as a clerk at the Ankin Law Office throughout law school. With Allie's outstanding performance as a law clerk she virtually created her own associate lawyer position at the Ankin Law Office upon graduation from law school.
Allie is passionate about her career as a personal injury lawyer. In a field of law Allie desires to stand out as a woman attorney and set the standard for successful woman litigators. Currently, Allie is preparing several cases for trial. At the Ankin Law Office we know Allie will obtain a top recovery for these clients, but even more, these clients will know that justice was served.

I'm not sure why the mainstream media is making such a hullabaloo about the recent proclamation from Pope Francis that Catholics should take the focus off abortion and put it on poverty issues. My experiences with Catholic churches I've belonged to is that they have been doing that since I started paying attention to issues bigger than who would ask me to the prom.
The Tampa Bay Times PolitiFact.com website writes, "Catholic groups are among the biggest providers of social-service charity in the nation." The article goes on to say that Catholic Charities alone ranks third in the country with their help for the disenfranchised, just behind United Way and the Salvation Army,
As far as the specific topic of abortion goes, support for the sanctity of human life also comes from other Christian denominations. There are now 2,500 pregnancy care centers helping women during and after their pregnancies compared with 1,800 abortion providers.
Twelve state legislatures (all religions) have banned abortion after 20 weeks gestation on grounds that abortion causes great pain to the unborn baby. A recent Gallup poll shows that 71 percent of the U.S. population opposes second-trimester abortions and 86 percent opposes third-trimester abortions.
These folks are either members of churches or not.
Twenty-nine states sell "Choose Life" license plates and 13 more states are poised to begin selling them. This effort, started by two devoted evangelical Christians, has raised $18.5 million for pregnancy care centers and groups promoting adoption.
One thing for sure, regardless of the pope's comments or the misinterpretation of them by the media, abortion promoters are losing ground, and those who support life are gaining.

From George Smiley to James Gordon to....Wiggy the angry taxidermist? You can't say that Gary Oldman doesn't continue to surprise...
The actor is teaming up with Malcolm McDowell, Dominic "Matthew Fox Beats Women" Monaghan and Joanne Whalley for "Monster Butler," which either sounds like a delightful kids' movie, a weird sequel to "Monster's Ball" or a deranged genre flick. Guess which one it is? Well, if you picked the latter, you win, because according to THR the movie will tell "the true story of Roy Fontaine (aka Archibald Hall),a bisexual jewel thief/con man/serial killer who chronicles his personal descent into darkness leading up to his eventual capture."
McDowell is in the lead role, with his character teaming up with Wiggy to commit a variety of crimes. Meanwhile, Monaghan will play Fontaine's Achilles' heel, David Wright. Genre shingle Dark House are producing the pic which will be released by Warner Bros. The movie will roll in front of cameras in Scotland in June, with Doug Rath making his feature debut. But considering it's an expansion of his short film, he's really best guy for the gig.
Will | June 3, 2012 2:37 AM
Dealing with Chris Roe will do that to a career. Just ask Malcolm McDowell.

Why doesn´t he get better offers ???? It will be a mistery for me ,I can´t belive he only takes the bad ones and leaves out the good ones ...so looks like Hollywood has no better offers for one of the best actors ,except a few rare opportunities like Smiley and Gordon .I tought the Oscar nom changed something but sadly .....

The rubber in 18-year old tyres must be going off by now but you are in a better position to judge than us as you are the one riding on them. If they grip - they grip. If they don't, change them.

Welcome danda,the problem is you don`t know the condition on the inside,also you may have weak flat spots with storage.I would replace them because of the weight of the bike.(don`t send me the bill though)

Google tyre storage life and you'll see they're well shot, change them immediately. Although TBF it probably doesn't matter so much on a Harley, you won't be going quick or leaning much.

The tyres on my ZZR1100 are brand new. I , however have been riding for over 40 years. Is it still safe for me to ride. By the way does Schuberth do a Bi-Focal visor.

Sitting Firm for John Lewis Melbury Rocking Chair

- Ratings & Reviews
Product information
On the 30th of March 2010 Dave Green with Designer Chris Eckersley and seven other prospective Bodgers met up at Gudrun Leitz's outdoor workshop in Clissett Wood for six days for the 'Bodging Milano' project.
With no electricity (and therefore no power tools), no computers or drawing boards, and with very little protection against the elements, the group were removed from their comfort zone and quickly had to rethink their way of working. In the world of chair design this is probably as far back-to-basics as you can get! The results were then shown with Designersblock at the Milan Furniture Fair, April 2010.
From here the inspiration gathered momentum to design a new era of Windsor Chairs and so the Modern Windsors was born. Dave Green has created the whole new range for John Lewis by using the same traditional materials and techniques as they would have hundreds of years ago but by bringing them into the 21st Century.
Each piece is named after British woods from where a lot of our timber is sourced and replenished: Melbury Wood in Dorset, Glenmore Forest in Scotland, Packington Wood in Leicestershire and Rushmore Forest in Lincolnshire. The range is made on;y from English ash and British elm.
Please note: Not all of our ranges are on display in our furniture departments. Please call your nearest John Lewis to check before you visit.

Theodore Rexby Edmund Morris
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Theodore Rex is the story—never fully told before—of Theodore Roosevelt's two world-changing terms as President of the United States. A hundred years before the catastrophe of September 11, 2001, "TR" succeeded to power in the aftermath of an act of terrorism. Youngest of all our chief executives, he rallied a stricken nation with his superhuman energy, charm, and political skills. He proceeded to combat the problems of race and labor relations and trust control while making the Panama Canal possible and winning the Nobel Peace Prize. But his most historic achievement remains his creation of a national conservation policy, and his monument millions of acres of protected parks and forest. Theodore Rex ends with TR leaving office, still only fifty years old, his future reputation secure as one of our greatest presidents.
From the Trade Paperback edition.

Boulder's professional orchestra, performing at Macky Auditorium, in our schools, and across the Front Range
Under the vision and leadership of Music Director Michael Butterman, the Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra is celebrating its 57th season of providing outstanding orchestral music in our community. The Boulder Phil is a critically acclaimed professional orchestra, presenting performances nine months out of the year and employing a core of 72 of our region's most highly trained musicians.
Voted "Best Classical Music" in 2013 and 2014 by the readers of Boulder Weekly, the Boulder Phil's main performance venue is Macky Auditorium on the CU-Boulder campus, a historic concert hall which recently celebrated its 100th anniversary. The Boulder Phil's main concert series—broadcast across the state on Colorado Public Radio—features a dynamic mix of masterpieces and promising new works, highlighting both accomplished and emerging guest artists with a special emphasis on Boulder's own creative community.
The orchestra's broad reach in the community includes special events such as the annual co-production of The Nutcracker with the Boulder Ballet as well as performances in Arvada, Beaver Creek, Highlands Ranch, and Lakewood. The Boulder Phil also works to inspire the next generation of music-lovers through its Discovery Concerts reaching 4th and 5th grade students across three counties.
Founded in 1958, the Boulder Philharmonic became a fully professional ensemble under the leadership of Theodore Kuchar, who began his tenure as music director in 1996. Michael Butterman was named music director in 2006, bringing a strong emphasis on education and outreach, as well as a creative approach to programming that includes a focus on collaborations with other local artists. Under his direction, the Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra reflects and fosters all that makes Boulder special―its creativity, spirit, beauty and quest for knowledge. By connecting people to orchestral music, the Boulder Phil strives to be an essential part of our community's cultural fabric.
For more information about the Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra, please contact Patron Services Manager & Artistic Administrator Shelley Sampson at 303-449-1343 x2 or email@example.com, or Executive Director Kevin Shuck at 303-449-1343 x3 or email@example.com.

Millions of dollars have been spent on rallies and ads to court voters in swing states like Florida and Ohio. However, in Mississippi it's a far different story. WLOXs' parent company Raycom Media owns television stations in Biloxi, Hattiesburg, and Jackson. Not one presidential ad has run on any of these stations since the Republican nominee was locked up. Local leaders in both parties were asked about why Mississippi gets so little attention in these races.
While the workers at the Harrison County Democratic headquarters in Gulfport kept track of voting patterns at local precincts, a map on the office wall reminded them of what the party's strategy is nationally.
"What the map looks at is where we have those key swing states," Joe Irvin, Harrison County Democratic Campaign Committee Chair said. "States like Ohio, Florida. States across the country, where there is a high electoral turnout and where the population can go Republican or Democrat. You've got to focus in on those states. We did phone banking to people in Florida."
While Democrats made phone calls, Harrison County Republicans made a call out for volunteers to head to the Sunshine state to help secure its 29 electoral votes for Mitt Romney.
"We in Mississippi send people there to help in those areas that are critical," said Harrison County Republican Chairman Al Hopkins. "That's the system that is in America today and we're going to operate on that system. That is one of the reasons we go to certain states to be sure that we carry those states and so it's the law until it's changed we'll operate under that system. "
The electoral college system means the person who wins the popular vote doesn't always win the election. Some voters said while they find that frustrating, it's not enough to keep them from the polls.
Clinard Davis, a Harrison County voter said he knows how it important it is to vote.
"That's our right to vote. We should vote anyway. You've got to keep voting in order to change things. Nothing is going to change if you don't vote," Davis said.

Preservation Leadership Forum
From their homes and offices, in boardrooms and courtrooms, on site and on Main Street, preservation advocates employ many different tools to save places, change policy, and build support.
Find up-to-date information on preservation practices. Look for case studies, tools, and research in the Info Center. For jobs, training, funding and the National Preservation Awards, visit the Resources tab in the navigation bar.
Already a member? Forum Online, the National Main Street Center, and Partners Central are available through the Memberships tab above.
Info Center
Sustainable Communities: The preservation and reuse of existing resources is essential to ensuring social, environmental, and economic sustainability in our communities. Find information on how preservation contributes to sustainable buildings and neighborhoods, and access the latest research on environmental sustainability.
Saving a Place: Historic buildings, districts, and landscapes often need individualized preservation strategies. Sometimes innovative models are needed to ensure the longevity of a particular group of structures such as historic barns, schools, or buildings from the recent past. Look here for tools and case studies on saving specific places.
Law and Policy: For many people historic preservation means re-caulking windows and stripping old wallpaper. But sometimes saving a place requires a set of legal tools, along with strong advocates. This section provides an overview of legal protections available for preservationists along with key policies (and current campaigns) for advocacy.
Economics of Revitalization: Preservation encourages growth and development benefitting communities large and small -- a benefit beyond the merely aesthetic. Preservation helps shape downtown revitalization and neighborhood stabilization. Find information about heritage tourism, historic tax credits, and other data that support the economic benefits of historic preservation.
