If you think lawsuits against businesses only happen to big corporations, think again. According to statistics released by Bolt Insurance Agency, more than half (57 percent) of lawsuits affect companies making less than $1 million in revenue, and one out of every three small business owners has been sued or threatened with a lawsuit.
Even if your small business is not at fault and wins the suit, the cost of defending yourself can seriously deplete your business bank account or, in some cases, even be enough to put your company out of business. According to the statistics cited by Bolt, small businesses' out-of-pocket costs related to lawsuits top $35.6 billion annually. Aside from the financial costs, nearly three-fourths of small business owners (73 percent) report that a lawsuit hurt their reputation and creditworthiness; 74 percent say it led to an increase in the cost of their products or services; and 71 percent say it forced them to cut back on hiring.
What if the worst happens and you actually are found liable? The average amount that juries award to plaintiffs in a consumer product liability lawsuit is $279,309; in a commercial product liability lawsuit, it's $725,000; and in a medical, industrial or construction product liability lawsuit, it's more than $1.25 million.
One area of particular concern for small businesses is employment-related lawsuits. The number of harassment claims (related to issues such as age, sex and disability) has risen by 25 percent since 2006.
The reality is, no matter what your business does (or doesn't do), you are at risk of a lawsuit. How can you lessen that risk? Of course, buying liability insurance is one good way, but Bolt offers some other tips:
- Be prepared. Don't assume a lawsuit can't happen to you. Honestly assess risk areas in your business. (An insurance agent, your attorney and/or your HR team or consultant can help here.)
- Put things in writing. Don't close deals on a handshake. Always have signed contracts in hand before starting work for new clients. Also create employment contracts for use when hiring new employees.
- Don't ignore employee complaints. When a minor grievance between employees turns into a harassment claim, it's often because the boss doesn't take the complaint seriously. Investigate all complaints by your employees and document what you find. Talk to your attorney if you have concerns about a situation escalating.
- Don't be penny-wise and pound-foolish. If you're trying to save money by not buying insurance, or by not having your attorney create contracts or review documents, you could pay the price later.

How To Get Your Man Back From Another Woman
Posted by: admin In: How To Get Man Back
It is never easy and simple to move on with your life after a terrible break up with your ex boyfriend. You often have to cope with all of the weird emotions of sadness, anger, and loneliness while still handling other daily responsibilities in your life. In addition to this, you may actually still be in love with your man and your feelings for him can be very overwhelming at times. The typical reaction to these feelings is to give up on the relationship and move on with your life. This is especially true if your ex boyfriend left you for another woman. However, it will be difficult to move on if you feel that both of you are meant for each other and have a future together. If you want to learn how to get your man back from another woman, then here are a few tips you can apply to your situation.
Now, the first tip I suggest you follow may sound very confusing and a bit alarming to you. In order to know how to get your man back from another woman, you must first accept the fact that the relationship is over. Your ex lover has moved on with his life and may actually be in a new relationship. Although this may be the case, it does not mean that you and your man's relationship is far from being reconciled. If you show him that you are strong, independent, and self confident then it appears that you have moved on and your ex doesn't have as strong of an influence over you as he used to. Appearing needy and desperate may feed his ego and cause him to believe he still has control over you. If your man still loves you, like you love him, then seeing this will not sit well with him and he may try to do something about it.
One of the best things to do in learning how to get your man back from another woman is to try to remain as close to his friends and family as possible. Doing this will cause you to gain favor with the people that are the most important to him. They may even put in a good word for you and pressure your ex to get back with you. However, don't use your relationship with them as an opportunity to uncover information about his personal life. If he finds out that you have been asking for detailed information about his life, then he may view that as a violation of his privacy and may resent you for it. But if his friends and family happen to freely reveal information about him, then listen and use it to your advantage.
The third tip you must apply in knowing how to get your man back from another woman is to never be a stalker or harass them. Don't intentionally try to be at the places he frequently visits or send anonymous messages to him. These actions may reinforce to him the reasons why it was good for him to end the relationship with you. It is also not good to show up in the places him and his girlfriend are visiting. If you want to win him back into your life, you must be patient and love him from a distance.

Chennai based Sagar Computers (SACO), one of the leading manufacturers of end-to-end laptop accessories, has planned to inaugurate a 'saloon' which will serve as a center for stylizing laptops and ensure their aesthetic appearance.
Speaking to The DQ Week, P Suresh Khanted, CEO, SACO, said, "A suitcase worth Rs 4,000, which is used rarely, is maintained by investing around Rs 300. Then, for a laptop, which is worth around Rs 30,000 and is used throughout the year, customers must concentrate on maintaining its health and beauty. Maintenance of laptop is like a small four-member family where the screen, top, keyboard, and mouse pad are the key areas to be taken care of for maintaining the long life of a laptop. Our saloon will groom laptops brought to us," he said, adding further that SACO has a wide variety of products to ensure that the laptops look healthy and beautiful.
"The typical attitude of any customer towards anything, be it a product or a relationship, is that they want it for a long time. Our products are well tuned and help customers towards maintaining their laptops for a long run," Khanted said. He further added that the awareness of laptop accessories is growing and the demand for such products is also increasing simultaneously. "We are having channel partners across the country and we are getting very positive responses," informed Khanted, saying that the margins in these products are very supporting for the channel partners, as they will get to sell a lot of numbers in the market because of the growing demand.

Colorado storm dumps far less snow than predicted
DENVER (AP) _ A storm that moved across Colorado dumped far less snow than forecasters initially predicted, but it was powerful enough to force the cancellation of more than 600 flights at Denver International Airport.
National Weather Service meteorologist Kari Bowen tells The Denver Post (http://bit.ly/ZvyGJW ) a lot of the snow that fell Saturday didn't stick because of warmer-than-expected temperatures.
Some forecasts called for as much as 18 inches of snow, but Bowen says most of Denver received between 4 and 5.5 inches. Some areas in the foothills got about a foot of snow.
The Colorado Department of Transportation says conditions improved overnight and roads are mainly wet or dry with some icy spots across the Front Range. Several highways on the eastern plains remain closed.
Meanwhile, DIA officials didn't expect any major delays Sunday.

Good afternoon -
We at the Factory of Sadness have a new owner in Jimmy Haslam, and he's brought along Joe Banner to transition into a team CEO role, working with Mike Holmgren through the end of this season when Holmgren retires. As Banner was with the Eagles for many years, some of us are curious about how he goes about his business. What in general can we expect from a Joe Banner-run team? Can he work with Tom Heckert?


text: May 21, 2012Recent grad's article raises provocative questionsDid esteemed jurist Learned Hand truly make a "rookie mistake" in an important 1911 patent case, as Hamline Law grad Jon Harkness, JD '11, argues? Students of patent law are taught that purified or isolated products of nature possessing utility can be patented because—essentially—"Learned Hand said so" in a case about adrenaline: [E]ven if it were merely an extracted product without change, there is no rule that such products are not patentable. Takamine [the inventor] was the first to make it available for any use by removing it from the other gland-tissue in which it was found, and, while it is of course possible logically to call this a purification of the principle, it became for every practical purpose a new thing commercially and therapeutically. That was a good ground for a patent. Parke-Davis & Co. v. H.K. Mulford Co., 189 F. 95, 103 (C.C.S.D.N.Y. 1911) Briefs in the current—and potentially landmark —AMP v. Myriad "gene patent" suit are thoroughly sprinkled with references to this language, and all four judicial opinions that have been rendered to date in Myriad have discussed this aspect of Learned Hand's 1911 adrenaline opinion. But it seems that no one had taken a close look at what actually happened in the 1911 case and its possible implications relative to Myriad—until Harkness came along. In addition to his J.D., Harkness has a Ph.D. in history of science from the University of Wisconsin and has held appointments in history of science programs at Cornell University and the University of Minnesota. As a newly registered patent attorney, he is embarking on a career in patent litigation. He also has an insatiable intellectual curiosity. "In the spring of 2011, I decided to quench my curiosity by visiting the New York branch of the National Archives to examine approximately 1,000 pages of records from Parke-Davis held there," said Harkness, whose interest in the case began as part of a Seminar course, IP Stories, taught by Professor Sharon Sandeen. "Coincidentally, my first day in the archives was the same day that the Federal Circuit initially heard oral arguments in Myriad." Some of that research has since been published as an article in the Journal of the Patent and Trademark Office Society (JPTOS): Dicta on Adrenalin(e): Myriad Problems with Learned Hand's Product-of-Nature Pronouncements in Parke-Davis v. Mulford, 93 J. PAT. & TRADEMARK OFF. SOC'Y 363 (2011). The major policy point of Harkness's article is that "those concerned with patent law should no longer view Learned Hand's product-of-nature language in Parke-Davis as flowing from the pen of a jurisprudential giant who had weighed vigorously debated points and counter-points on a challenging legal question. In reality, what we have are poorly informed musings of a young district court judge grappling with one of his first patent cases." Harkness's article was published within weeks of the Supreme Court's announcement in March that it wanted the Federal Circuit court to reconsider Myriad in light of another recent decision. However, many court-watchers, including Harkness, expect it to find its way back to the Supreme Court. The Federal Circuit will hear oral arguments on July 20, 2012. Harkness's article has received much attention and Harkness would not be surprised to see it cited in the Federal Circuit reconsideration of the Myriad case. "The journal in which I published (JPTOS) is one that the Federal Circuit cites quite frequently," he said. "In fact, two of the three opinions cited articles from JPTOS in the initial round of Myriad at the Federal Circuit." According to Hamline Associate Dean Ed Butterfoss, what Harkness has accomplished is remarkable. "Law professors spend their entire careers trying to discover a novel take on court decisions and influence courts dealing with cutting edge issues—and Jon has done that before the ink has even dried on his diploma." Professor Sandeen added that she always encourages her Seminar students to work with her during or after the course to take their papers to the next level and pursue publication opportunities. Harkness said he uncovered two revelations while conducting his research. The first was that the prosecution of the Adrenalin patent application, between the fall of 1900 and the spring of 1903, involved an extended debate on the product-of-nature problem. Perhaps his most important finding is that this debate took place within the bounds provided by an 1889 case, Ex parte Latimer, in which a patent on the isolated fibrous core of a pine needle had been rejected as constituting unpatentable subject matter. 1889 Dec. Comm'r Pat. 123 (1889). Relatively early in the Adrenalin patent application process, the applicant, Jokichi Takamine, and his attorneys acknowledged that Latimer provided "the official interpretation of the doctrine involved." Thus, Takamine was forced to argue that his product was chemically different than the hormone—not just purified or isolated. (The arguments were somewhat abstract because the applicant did not know the precise chemical formulae for either his medical product or the naturally occurring hormone.) The second major revelation is that—by contrast to patent prosecution for Adrenalin—the patent litigation between Parke-Davis and Mulford had nothing to do with Adrenalin being an isolated or purified product of nature. Harkness said, "It was basically a protracted priority/novelty dispute. None of the briefs submitted to Learned Hand mentioned the product-of-nature issue. And here's some especially striking evidence: each side had a top-notch expert witness, and during a combined total of 53 days of depositions neither expert was asked a single question on the issue of whether Adrenalin was an unpatentable product of nature. Perhaps most significantly, Latimer was not mentioned in a single brief, and Learned Hand—who was less than two years removed from a Wall Street law practice when he wrote his Parke-Davis opinion—seems to have been completely unaware of Latimer—as is implied by Hand's blanket assertion that there was 'no rule' against patenting 'an extracted [natural] product without change.'" Hand's dicta from Parke-Davis essentially lay dormant until 1958, when it was relied upon by Fourth Circuit judges grappling with the patentability of vitamin B12. Merck & Co. v. Olin Mathieson Chemical Corp., 253 F.2d 156 (4th Cir. 1958). By 1958, Learned Hand had become a living legal legend. According to Harkness, his judicial colleagues did not recognize that, 47 years earlier, a 39-year-old district court judge had made an under-informed mistake in Parke-Davis. In the years since 1958, Hand's Parke-Davis pronouncements have ascended from obscurity to conventional wisdom. And Harkness's revelations have potentially important implications for the outcome of Myriad. The significance of this historical analysis is, perhaps, further amplified because Judge Kimberly Moore acknowledged that her recent Federal Circuit swing vote in Myriad was largely determined by a history of "settled expectations," which she identified as starting with Parke-Davis. As for Harkness, he says if the Federal Circuit—or, later, the Supreme Court, or even Congress—should decide that granting patents on isolated sections of DNA is legitimate, this would not change the historical reality that Learned Hand misstated the law as it existed in 1911. "However," Harkness said, "we may need to reclassify his error as a lucky mistake." Harkness will be watching the Myriad proceedings closely knowing that his work may yet play a role in the case. Even if it doesn't, he is pleased with what he uncovered and the response his research has received. One of his proudest possessions is a personally signed letter he received from United States District Court Judge Robert W. Sweet thanking him for the article. "It certainly fortified me since we share the same view of Judge Hand's opinion," wrote Judge Sweet. "[T]he article is a great piece of work for which I'm grateful." For a copy of Harkness's full article, send an email request to firstname.lastname@example.com.

For years and almost on a daily basis, I have walked the streets of this town and have noticed something about it.
The thing is that teenagers have descended upon the streets of this town in a form of transportation known as the skateboard. These transportation devices should not be allowed on the sidewalks in the Downtown area of Boise.
They are not equipped to let the person who is walking know that they are coming up behind them. Now there are areas within, and without, this city called skateboard parks, and should be used for these items of transportation.
I would call upon the mayor and city leaders to ban skateboards from the sidewalks of Boise. It would make walking in Downtown Boise a nice experience for the residents of this town and for visitors.
DAN LAWRENCE, Boise
George Will's obsession with authoritarianism suggests a problem that many members of government as well as the general population have that does more to damage freedom, justice and equality under God as well as a government of, by and for the people.
When a person is educated and matures in an educational or church system that represents a power structure, it's difficult for that person to understand a government that has three branches to moderate each other. President Obama did not invent the capitalist system, he is merely stuck with it. For years there have been concerns about universal health care, but it was always put on the back burner. President Obama took action that many people refuse to accept. Congress is more like the Muslims with their Shiite and Sunni divisions that cannot get along with each other.
How many, I wonder, congressional members, as well as the judiciary, were reared in authoritarian structures? I suspect that most members of government are there more for self aggrandizement as well as the job and paycheck and care nothing about the people.

Merit badges
As a former Scoutmaster (13 years), I really appreciate Justin Peters' efforts in obtaining all those merit badges. I only hope he wasn't just chasing merit badges for the quantity. Congratulations on your achievement, Peters.
In the merit badge (MB) program, there's a "hidden" factor that is not too well known. When a scout selects one of the required MBs, most likely he will be working with people within his troop.
Most all other MBs, the MB counselors are from outside the troop. That means the scout has to call the counselor "cold." The scout is now learning how to talk to strangers: explaining the purpose of his call; arrange for the time and place for an interview and planning; locate where and arrive on time for meeting; and how to talk to a stranger face to face.
The scout might be required to write and submit a summary of the MB, all within a time frame set by the counselor. Some of us adults will find these hard to do. Don't forget, most scouts working on MBs are only 14 years old and up.

Congress and health care
Dave Churchill's "Obamacare & Congress" letter on Aug. 15 is misleading.
How is it "special treatment" to let congressional staffers keep a benefit they've had for decades, a benefit that the majority of Americans also have (employer-subsidized health insurance)?
I've known a few Capitol Hill staffers. One of them, a good childhood friend, was just a regular guy with a family (conservative, no less) who believed in doing the right thing and worked hard. If he were still on the Hill, why should his family have to pay several thousand more a year for health insurance because of what essentially boils down to an administrative mistake in a complex law ... especially since almost everybody else who already has insurance will see very few changes?
I know it's popular to rail against Congress making special rules for itself. This is not one of those instances, and claiming that it is only fans the flames of anti-Congress sentiment unfairly. If you want to fix Congress, either run for office or apply for a congressional staffer's job and see if you can dampen the partisan atmosphere with a good dose of compromise and statesmanship.

Sugar Pie, Honeycomb
The ice cream truck is no longer reason to scream: It the waffle truck now—on tour all the way from Belgium. The Waffle Mania truck parks itself at the Civic Center Heart of the City Farmers Market on Wednesdays from 8 am to 2 pm and the lines can be long. Some have ordered 12 at a time; bloggers protested when the waffle truck was absent one morning; and according to co-owner Derby, Michelle Williams, of the defunct Destiny's Child, is one of their fans.
Unlike some waffles, these hot cakes are made from dough, not batter, making for a crisp crust and a moist center, more reminiscent of a caramelized brioche than a standard US waffle. Derby also credits their appeal to a key ingredient: pearl sugar, which is derived from beets and arrives from the Belgian company, So Good, mixed into the ready-made dough. I think they're best straight-up. When it comes to toppings, take it with powdered, not whipped.
Rumor has it that Waffle Mania will be setting up a permanent storefront at Pier 39 in the coming months.

Amarillo, TX - There are new security measures to be aware of before heading to the airport next month.
The Transportation Security Agency is now allowing airline passengers to carry small folding knives with blades that are 2.36 inches or less in length and are less than 1/2-inch wide.
Passengers also will be allowed to bring onboard as part of their carry-on luggage novelty-sized baseball bats less than 24 inches long, toy plastic bats, billiard cues, ski poles, hockey sticks, lacrosse sticks and two golf clubs, the agency said.
The new policy change goes into effect on April 25.
But not everyone agrees with the agency's decision.
It drew an immediate outcry from unions representing flight attendants and other airline workers.
They say these items are a real threat to passengers and flight attendants.
An internal TSA working group defends their decision and stresses that the items represent no real danger.
They instead want to focus their energy on what they call serious security threats.
There has been a gradual easing of some of the security measures applied to airline passengers over the past few years...
One of the more recent changes is that travelers 75 years and older no longer have to remove shoes or light jackets at airport checkpoints.

A while ago, I won a SkinCeuticals serum from Beauty Crazed in Canada but I didn't review it because I wasn't the hugest fan. It's a preventative serum, so I realize that there won't be any immediate effects, but honestly, the whole thing threw me into a bit of an existential crisis: "How will I know if it worked? What if I'd used something else and it would have worked better? Jesus Christ, what if it makes my skin worse down the line because we really don't have enough research to determine the long-term effects of bottled antioxidants??" I like to think that as a writer of all things beauty, I'm allowed to be that dramatic.
I've resolved to finish the bottle at least, because it's an insanely expensive product -- on Amazon, it's $113/oz. My biggest issue is the way it felt on my face. It's just so sticky. I'm okay with a certain amount of greasiness on my face at night, but it was awkward touching my face after I put this on. Maybe that's a good thing, so I'll stop touching my skin as often, but I like to be fairly comfortable when I sleep. Anyway, I moved onto another night serum and tried this in the morning under a number of moisturizers and I've finally decided on my pairing.
I bought the Vinoperfect Day Perfecting Fluid SPF 15 after I got a sample at an apotheke and I haven't looked back since! It makes my skin feel cushiony. That's a word. I said so. Anyway, one day I was rushing out the door so I put in 3 drops of the Phloretin CF serum. Then I proceeded to kick myself for not thinking of mixing it with something else earlier.
This combination leaves my skin feeling moisturized but not greasy at all. I try to moisturize as best I can in the summer, but it's so tempting not to when your face starts feeling oily less than two hours after applying it. This combination gives my skin that freshly-washed-but-hydrated feeling you get when you use a milk cleanser. I'm almost sad that I don't have a lot of the serum left -- if only I'd figured this out sooner!
I'm so into mixing my face products now. What's worked for you?

DC), the Chicago Art Museum, the McCarter Theatre (Princeton, NY), the Mark Taper Forum (LA), the Asolo Theatre (Sarasoto, FL) Merkin Concert Hall (NYC), Le Grand Palais (Paris), the Belgium Opera, the Berlin Opera, the Market Theater (Johannesburg, South Africa), and a multitude of international jazz festivals....

AwardsThe National Endowment for the Arts, Meet the Composer, The Musicians Foundation, and The International Cite des Arts (Paris). He received the 1999 ASCAP/IAJE Duke Ellington Established Jazz Composer Award, the Chamber Music America's Jazz composer honors for 2003, and the 2010 New York State Council for the Arts Artist Commission award
Colorful, loose and imaginative are meek understatements when describing the sumptuous music on Marionettes on a High Wire. -John Murph, Down Beat
There's a beautiful kind of daring in the music -- a rough tenderness in Carroll's trumpet tone, a palpable spiritual commitment from all the players involved. Carroll and his group unleash a highly adventurous sound...a freshness and multi-dimensionality that is truly rare. -David Adler, All Music Guide
Baikida Carroll, whose balance of bravada and tenderness, facility and understatement mark him as a player to be reckoned with. -Jon Pareles, The New York Times
Baikida is a Bad Motha...! A true disciple of the maintenance and extension of the trumpet tradition. -Lester Bowie, Trumpeter
Jazz Journalists Association Top 10 of 2001 -Williard Jenkins (JJA)
[Marionettes On a High Wire] Phenomenal in both conception & execution...one of the trumpet's most brilliant improvising players ... one of jazz's most rewarding composers ... leads a superb quintet whose music is exciting, subtle, melodious & adventurous. -Lucky Oceans, The Planet, Australian Broadcasting Corporation
Elegantly rendered shifts in meter and memorable melodies, awash with blistering yet finely articulated soloing by the leader...Carroll's latest release equates to one beautifully fabricated production, that imparts a lasting impression. Now, we can only hope that Baikida Carroll sustains fewer gaps between recordings! Recommended!! -Glenn Astarita, All About Jazz
I consider the opportunity to bear witness to the eloquent beauty of Baikida's music a distinct honor. Baikida Carroll is polarized; poised; at a matchless point between lyricism and fire. -Julius Hemphill, Composer/Musician
Carroll is equally comfortable inside as outside...is no stylistic chameleon, and always maintains a strong identity of his own... Finely crafted and brimming over with verve and unselfconscious originality, this new release is a delight from start to finish, and a welcome spotlighting of a too-often overlooked talent. -Steve Holtje, CD Now
Marionettes on a High Wire is in that rare class for me where words like superb, and exquisite get used....tough, swinging, angry, loving, thoughtful and expressive cutting-edge jazz. Don't miss this one. -SD Feeney, Face Magazine
...superb new album ... Carroll sketches out beautifully lyric themes with sensitive arrangements... -Peter Margasak, Jazz Times
[Marionettes on a High Wire] has the verve, the vision and the vitality of the best of mid-sixties and contemporary jazz. -Jules Epstein, Philadelphia Tribune
Baikida Carroll can write any kind of music for the theatre, in any genre, any style, any instrumentation and its power is breath-taking. He is, very simply, the most inventive and emotionally powerful composer for the stage I have ever encountered. - Emily Mann, writer and director McCarter Theatre, Artistic Director
Between Heaven and Earth: The sense of grace that comes with real balance and a sense of direction are what undergird this disc's authority and elevate its creative leaps. -Larry Blumenfeld, Jazziz
A multifaceted gem. Carroll plays the trumpet like no one I know of. He's got chops to burn, which are fabulously on display whenever he solos, but what really strikes me as unique is his tone, which is dark and buttery-slippery, yet somehow perfectly articulated. He gets more warmth from his horn than any trumpeter I've ever heard, yet he's incredible nimble and has perfect timing and pitch. This kind of modern eclectic jazz--hip, worldly wise, yet with an underlying warmth and accessibility--is what many artists strive for but few achieve. In sum, this is one marvelous disc, certainly one of the absolute best of 2001. -Jon P. Dennis, Amazon.com
'Simply breathtaking! A real trust in creative freedom is at the core of Carroll's work... -Bret Premack -Global Music Network 2001
...Remarkable often astonishing. His playing is full of poetry. His tones are beautiful... -Jazz Hot Magazine, Paris, France
Baikida is an exceptional musician and composer, we have been friends for many moons...his music is always unique and soulful. -Oliver Lake, Musician/Composer
A fine trumpeter -The Village Voice
[Carroll's] probing trumpet, with a full, rounded attack and soulful passion is at the core throughout. His lines have a piercing precision, able to transform the singing melodies into soaring abstractions while always retaining the harmonic thread�'a personal approach to improvising that is rich with an understated, complex lyricism. Carroll's writing displays an adventurous melodicism and edgy sense of timing that lets the musicians stretch out with soaring freedom while still maintaining a flowing pulse that swings like mad. -Michael Rosenstein, Signal to Noise
Best New Jazz Releases -Jez Nelson, BBC
2001 Critics' Best -Hernani Faustino, JazzPortugal.net
Baikida Carroll pulls the right strings. This 'freebop' session is fresh sounding without being forced....Carroll's album provides a valuable lesson to those who think that jazz's future is in its past, be it neo-traditionalists or those reliving the early 70's loft scene. The rich history of the music is to be neither imitated nor ignored, but absorbed to help create a personal statement. Carroll and his band mates walk the tightrope between tradition and experimentation with perfect balance. -Dan Polletta, Public Arts Interactive
Marionettes On A High Wire is a comprehensive, deeply moving evocation of creative values. For all the bravura complexity and calculated ambiguity of Carroll's lines, there's a suede elegance to his tone. -Chip Stern, Stereophile
Baikida Carroll is not only a very fine musician; but a very accomplished person in general. -Muhal Richard Abrams, Composer/Musician
If the neo-cons hadn't started to force it backwards 20 years ago, this CD demonstrates where thoughtful mainstream jazz was headed at that time, and what most contemporary mainstream jazz should sound like right now. -Ken Waxman, Jazz Weekly
[Marionettes On A High Wire] Like a drive on a windy mountain road, however, the new vistas peering out on each turn are quite unexpected and beautiful. Take a spin for yourself. -Jack Skowron, Audiophile Voice [ full review ]
[Marionettes On A High Wire] Quite the perfect release - Omnitone once again delivers manna from the heavens. -Downtown Music Gallery (NY)
Baikida Carroll has been one of the more impressive trumpeters in the new jazz for several years now... boast a big sound and firm control in all registers. -Robert Palmer, The New York Times
Carroll is a superb trumpeter - avant-garde in the finest sense; building upon a tradition... and extending it into new territories. -Thomas Albright, The San Francisco Chronicle
I am deeply moved by his compositions... Carroll's work is innovative, fresh and has a magic that takes the listener to another realm of awareness. The lines and textures inspire me to make dances. -Dianne McIntyre, Choreographer
Baikida Carroll is an artist...and one of the preeminent trumpet players of his generation. -Mikhail Horowitz, The Woodstock Times
...It was a pleasure to listen to Baikida Carroll... with his fine, fine sense of melody and his many talents as a composer... intelligent compositional weave, and brilliant instrumentalist. -Edward Sanders, The Woodstock Journal
There is a freshness in the air when one hears Baikida Carroll. A gifted writer. -Dick Bogle, The Portland Scanner
Leader and superb trumpeter ...Carroll with his lovely clear tone, relaxed, multi- faceted lyricism and sudden high spears of power... a much more satisfying soloist. -The Morning Herald, Sydney Australia
Baikida Carroll has long been a leading force in the shaping of contemporary creative music. His influence will be strongly felt as creative music moves into the next cycle. -Anthony Braxton, Composer/Musician
Carroll's fat tone and popping attack...suggest the formidable Lee Morgan. When Baikida bears down on the microphone a sec, the whole room can shake... -Kevin Whitehead, Schwann Inside Jazz & Classical Recommended Jazz -Chuck Obuchowski, New England Jazz Radio Cooperative (WWUH-FM)
He (Baikida) evokes every style of the horn's history and elicits every conceivable, and some inconceivable sounds from it. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't heard it myself. -WXPN Radio, Philadelphia, PA
...the balance of this special recording has the verve, the vision and the vitality of the best of mid-sixties and contemporary jazz. -Jules Epstein, Jazzmatazz
Excellent trumpet player! -Wynton Marsalis, Trumpeter

...or at least horrifying draft scenarios that will keep me awake tonight.
- Nix said the Bills won't take a receiver. He's also said that he's a pathological liar this time of the year. The first of my nightmare scenarios involves Buffalo going offense at 3 and 34, specifically AJ Green and a sliding Mark Ingram. The defense gets the bulk of the picks, as promised, but only from round 3 onwards. OT gets a lick and a promise.
- Carolina is set on AJ Green and doesn't want to take him at 1. The Panthers call the Bills and ask for 3 and 34 for first overall. Carolina picks up a second rounder and gets the guy they want anyway. Buffalo gets, drum roll, Cameron Newton and no help for the defense until the 3rd round.
- Nix turns down a trade with Cincy or Arizona and makes a baffling selection at 3, like Tyron Smith. (I'm just being paranoid here....Nix didn't reach in 2010.)
- Nix uses picks 34 and 68 to move into the mid-late 20s to reach for a QB instead of sitting at 34 and waiting to see what players are pushed down the board by a QB run.
- Nix mortgages the future by trading 34 and Buffalo's 2012 first round (virtually certain to be a top 10 selection) to Cleveland in order to select Gabbert. I've got nothing against Gabbert but players associated with Buffalo's deals to get back into the first all have a stink about them. The curse could literally be the difference between Gabbert being a bust and an all-pro.
- Nix will inexplicably dither and be late on getting the card turned in. By the time the Bills realize what's going on Cincy and Arizona have gotten their picks in, with Dareus, Miller and Peterson all off the board.
- My internet connection will fail and southern New Mexico will be socked in by the thickest cloud cover ever seen in this part of the world which completely wipes out my DirecTV connection. To complete the horror, the local Verizon cell phone tower will get hit by a drunk and topple over, rendering my Droid impotent.
- Nix will conduct the draft masterfully, leaving me nothing to gripe about.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Tommy Hilfiger celebrated his label's 25th anniversary at the Metropolitan Opera House last night. He's come a long way since 1985, when, as he told us, "I was just starting, and I did everything myself. I designed preppy, all-American clothes with a twist. It was only menswear for the U.S. market."
For the evening's festivities, the usual ushers had been swapped out in favor of a column of male models in khakis and blue blazers that stretched all the way from the plaza outside up to the mezzanine. J. Lo, Neil Patrick Harris, and Kimora Lee Simmons (with her camera crew in tow, of course) made the easy trip over from the Hilfiger runway show next door and proceeded past a topiary American flag on their way up to the next floor, where the Strokes blasted through a mini-set at decibel levels that would have sent most of the Met's regular clientele scurrying.
Over the last quarter century, Hilfiger has converted plenty of fans who didn't grow up wearing polo shirts. "I was the opposite of preppy," Christina Hendricks said. "The only thing I did with my tennis racket was pretend it was a guitar and sing the Go-Go's." Kristen Bell, on the other hand, told us, "I was really, really, really into my blue velour overalls from OshKosh B'gosh, and I had a blue and white striped turtleneck that I wore under them every day. I was forever destined to be Tommy Hilfiger's girl." We're betting the designer likes the sound of that.

Please Help an Iowa Cubs Fan out!!
The Iowa Cubs are doing a contest until June 9th for fans to vote for the next Iowa Cubs t-shirt giveaway. Last month it was Jake Fox who won, and they gave away Fox shirts at a game last week. This month, the participants are J.R. Mathes, Bobby Scales, Lee Smith and So Taguchi. As I write this, Mathes has a big lead over Scales. As an Iowa Cubs season ticketholder, I appreciate the great season that Mathes is having right now, and I like him to make some sort of small contribution to the big club sometime this season, but I think that Bobby Scales deserves his own shirt day for the contributions he's made to the Cubs this season. So please help me out here and vote for SCALES! http://iowa.cubs.milb.com/index.jsp?sid=t451

The Beacons of Light Re-minders from Home are presented Live on the internet, transcribed and posted here on the 15th of each month. The next Lightworker VirtualLight Broadcast will be on
From Steve:
At some point in our lives each of us has to stop and ask some basic questions. When I was growing up many of my friends were another religion and that naturally brings up the question "Which one is the right one?" I studies several religions and found a sense of tolerance of other religions built into most. After collecting a few of these 'questions' in my mind I understood that they were all stories told from different tribes passed down from generation to generation from different parts of the world. So that leads to the larger question: What are the common points of all religions? What are they all saying and how do they get that message across? II find it interesting that a supreme being with similar attributes was found throughout. In fact I find it interesting that god in some form managed to surface in our reality no matter where we found ourselves on living on Earth.
I will also point out here that there is a real need being fulfilled here and don't let the use of the word stories make them any less powerful. People in all walks of life need to see their own reflection regularly and religion has been one of many ways that this has been fulfilled on Earth. In this beautiful message the group led us on a journey to see how we find and use these mirrors in our lives everyday. The funny part is that rarely do we see that it is our own reflection in the mirror.
Have a great month and be present.
Big hugs and gentle nudges
Greeting from Home
Point of No Return
All of humanity has reached a level to which there is no return. There is no going backward in vibrational status and this day humans have reached a critical mass level. You knew it was coming. You knew the direction was going this way and we told you recently you had reached another critical mass level where love would actually overpower fear on your planet within the collective. Fear has been the one motivating factor that has been used throughout the planet to self-motivate. Now it may be helpful to find a new motivation.
Today, we would like to take that a step further. We would like to share some of our perceptions of your journey. In the beginning it was small, tiny steps and now you are running at full steam taking these huge leaps to jump as many steps as you can in one simple move. Due to these changes many of the comforts you have set up are beginning to change. It is not that you will be uncomfortable, but simply the fact that what once brought you comfort may no longer. You have cleared a space in order to use your energy to its highest potential. You had created a business or job, clientele, friendships and all the support networks, yet you will soon find that you do not need the support in the same way. All of humanity has just taken a very quiet but very effective and huge step in vibration and it happened very fast. It will continue to do this as long as everyone is in this together, as long as you have some demarcation points where you can measure and see your own growth.
Changing the Game
Why is it necessary to see your own growth in order for you to continue moving forward? This is a game, dear ones. It is exactly that, a game. You know how difficult it is for us to give the Keeper information directly from Home that he has to bring through and actually translate it into messages that fit into your world.
There are some very interesting pieces that are starting to work. Let us ask you a few questions and then we will go through and help to uncover some of the answers or the possible potentials that lay in front of you. Ask yourself what are the belief systems that you hold that empower you? We have talked many times about belief systems in your world. We have talked many times about belief systems being in your way. Many times you make firm, consistent and inflexible belief systems that simply have to crack and fall away. Sometimes they fall away with great drama and difficulty, so that you can move to the next level. We are asking you to consider building flexible belief systems where you are open to new experiences and open to new thoughts and perception because each time you make one of these huge jumps, you are seeing everything from a different perspective and that is huge. Why?
Mirror Mirror
Dear ones, you are creators. You are the ones who are creating every single thought. Every emotion that you have is a trigger that sparks the thought into the universe for manifestation. It is done magnetically through your heart. It is done in connection with every other creator, yet you are a creator in hiding – god incarnate in some way. In order to come here and play the game and pretend to be human, it was necessary to enter the illusion of time, for being infinite on planet Earth does not work. This is a game of pretending to be finite and now you have learned to play it almost too well as your true nature is infinite. In order to create the illusion each of you creates a sacred space of your own. Your own reality within your own little bubble and it works very well up to a point where you start becoming aware that you are not the only creator on planet Earth. That is where the challenge comes from and if you will look at your societies, your businesses, your governments, all the collective vibrations whether they are religions, churches, organizations of any kind that come together to reflect your magic, that is what this is.
Look at all the good things that have come of that. Religions have brought tremendous strength, unity and community based on love consciousness. They have reinforced concepts and ideas which many people have tried on and used effectively. Why is it so wonderful to have something of that nature? Because it is a belief system that can reflect your light. It is something in the way of a mirror. You have many of these mirrors here on Earth not limited to religions. Each reflects your unique magic in some way and is designed to help you re-member who you really are. It is in these spaces that you rejuvenate the spirit within, the god within.
So why do you have so many religions on planet Earth? That is a recent question. The reason for that is very simply that you have different vibrational ranges throughout the world and need representations of each. It doesn't necessarily make a difference which one you use because all of them are a reflection of your light. The challenges come when one god does not make room for the other gods. Most religions have become exclusive and that has caused many problems and wars. Therefore we tell you that you are growing and if you wish to see your true reflection in a mirror find a mirror that is flexible enough to grow with you.
Mirrors of Light
So what is a mirror of light? If we handed you a stone – a little, tiny stone – and we said, carry this beautiful stone with you in your pocket when you leave here and everything will work magically for you from this point forward. Will it work? If you believe it works, it will work. It is a mirror. When you go to a doctor, a doctor will say, "This is common. I can help you fix this problem which is no problem at all. We have fixed many people. We simply give you this pill, get a good night's sleep and you are going to be fine." Will it work? If you believe it does, it will. If you have doubts, if you are wondering if even allopathic medicine is working for you, it will not work the same. These are not hard and fast things that work for everyone. Every individual is individual for that reason. As you grow, the range of diversity will grow larger. What we tell you is that these are reflections of your light. These are the ways in which the little gods have to use their energy on planet Earth. They have to mirror reflect it in some way in order to see it themselves. So we ask you to become consciously aware of your mirrors and we ask you to collect mirrors and get lots of them and set them up in your house and set all these potentials up so that you see yourself on a regular basis. No, we are not talking about visual mirrors here so you can relax. It does not mean you have to fix your hair every moment of seeing yourself in the mirror. What it means, is that you have many flexible belief systems that you can use your power through…that can reflect your light.
There are many healers and teachers that hear our words. We call in many healers and teachers, for this is the energy that we have worked with the Earth for many, many of your lifetimes and we are so excited for you are at the point where you are starting to uncover the veil. You are starting to hear sounds, different pieces behind the veil that you have never heard before. It is your growth, it is changes in your own physical being that are allowing you to do this. This illustrates that you are starting to become aware. This is the illusion that there is only one truth and that all these pieces are meant to reflect your truth. Why am I saying that? Why are we saying that each one of you has a truth when in fact there are so many here on the planet? We have spoken of this before. We have told you that there are two important pieces to re-member. Number one, you are god and you have a responsibility to use your creative powers. Number two and probably just as important; you are not the only god. You also have to use your powers in harmony with the other creators around you. That is the part that brings together the whole collective of heaven to be created on earth. That is what you are moving into – an empowered society- such has never before existed on Earth. You have always had free choice, but as a collective vibration, you have never chosen to fully take your own power. What does that mean? If you are god, does that mean that as god you do not need to play the game any longer?
Responsibility = The Balance of Power
Well, you have that concept and you have that opportunity but most of you have been here lifetime after lifetime as teachers or healers working to get the planet and all of humanity to the point where you could make this step that is now before you. It is taking place. The veils are coming off and what you are seeing is your own reflection. It is very important that you understand this because along with your incredible power comes a level of responsibility and your power can only be balanced when you take that level of responsibility. Your power can only be increased when you increase that level of responsibility. This is what is before each and every one of you. This is the area that each of you will start to begin to see.
21 Days of Reflected Light.
We will now pretend to play in your illusion of time and will tell you that from this point forward and for 21 days from right now, we will show you yourself. You will see your own power directly reflected back in something you have – an idea, a concept that manifests right in front of you. Watch for the miracles during the next 21 days. You will create many in your life but there will be at least one that will be irrefutable that you will absolutely understand right from your core essence that you have created it. We do this from time to time to give you confidence, to let you know your true nature. You have built a veil that keeps you from remembering Home, it keeps you from remembering your past lifetimes, it keeps you from remembering your advancement as a soul and now what is taking place is that you are beginning to dissolve that veil entirely.
You have placed the veil between the two lobes of your brain. It is the reason you have two halves in your brain. Consider the left one to hold the illusion of time and in the right one, there is no time. So the right brain represents Home, the left brain represents Earth. These are now blending together in a way that has not happened before. The spirit is evolving and the physical being will now evolve to house the empowered spirit. As such many of you are starting to talk to spirit in some way. You are all starting to find parts of yourself where you have direct connections to Home. If you trust it you will learn to bring that energy in to anchor your light. You will ground light, give it a new path to travel and call in your light in a very powerful way.
Each and every one of you is beginning to do this in your own way. If there was one piece that we could give you all, simply by tapping you on the shoulder, it would be confidence. It would be soul confidence because your soul has traveled this Earth many times. Many of you have gone to great lengths and great sacrifice to make it possible for the Earth to take these next steps…and here you are. Some of you are awakening from the dream saying, "Now that I am awakening, what am I supposed to do?" There is a lot of laughter around that because that is the veil in action. We are not here to teach you anything, we are here to help you re-member. We are here to help you reveal that part of yourself so that you can see this reflection for yourself. It is not about showing anybody else or proving your abilities or magic. Then you take it forward and balance it with responsibility and you balance it with harmony with the other gods around you and you learn to infuse everything with light. This naturally amplifies your light. This is exactly where you are moving to and exactly what you are beginning to do right now.
Spreading Light
Take those smiles that you get from time to time and spread them around. Take the gifts that each and every one of you have and find a use for it in some way – even if it is just a momentary grounding of the energy – find a way to use that to where you can see and offer your own abilities to other people. Yes, it can be discouraging sometimes because you go around with your belief systems, "Oh, this person does this over here and this person has this training. If I am going to do that then I must go through the same steps. I must go through the same process and it will take me years to get there." We tell you that you do not need to do that at this point. Your energy is being called by every being out there and we tell you that if you start to move into your energy, into your passion – those of you who need training, who need other pieces of it – will be directed to it very quickly. You do not need to plan this out, you simply need to move in the direction of your heart and let it show the way. Let god come through you. Let yourself reflect that energy and whatever it is, a religion, a healing modality, a book, a statue or a rock, it makes no difference if you believe in it, it works. You are truly the center of your own universe and we ask you to start considering that with every action you create.
It is very difficult for many of you because you have come in with an incredible level of sensitivity in order to do your work. That sensitivity makes you feel everything and right away you are hesitant to put your energy out there because you say, "Everybody will feel that. I have no right to put my energy out there because everybody will feel my energy and it will be invasive to other people." We hope you can consider the opposite of that. Your energy is carried by you because you are the only one that can bring that part of Home to the planet. You are the only person that can bring that puzzle piece from Home and here you are wondering, "Am I good enough to carry this?" Everybody at Home is telling you to go ahead and take your piece out to the game board and play it for all that it is worth for you have earned it.
Missing Energy in the Universe
Many of you do not do things because you think you are invasive to other people or affecting other people and we tell you that you are but it is the opposite,Your energy is what is missing in the universe and if you hold it within, heaven on earth cannot complete. There are gifts that each and every one of you have and hold but your feelings of inadequacy, your feelings of not being good enough are momentary pieces that we hope will go right through you and you will step forward and adapt from there because those blockages will restrict Earth from moving and taking this next step. You will find that the pace is quickening and even over the next year it will quicken even more. Take this as an exciting challenge. Take this as an opportunity. We ask you to paint your energy everywhere. We have given the Keeper an exercise to do it with because you are so sensitive and concerned about your energy being on things, we do not want it to be aggressive so we ask you to use the back of your hand almost as if you were imagining it. You do not need to actually paint your energy on someone but when you do, imagine you are using it with the back of your hand. It is not aggressive, it is simply putting back the energy that you have been in charge of within the universe. You are putting back that flavor of god and it is needed right now. It is not just about one god opening up and remembering their power. It is about a planet of empowered beings awakening from the dream. Dear ones, you have asked to be there and many of you did not even have contracts that were important for you to be in this lifetime at this moment, but you were not going to let this party happen unless you came to be here at this moment and here you are. You have made it. Do not wait. Do not wait for 2012. Do not wait for the 11-11. Do not wait for tomorrow. Start putting it out now. Act as if it is now and let the mirror reflect your magic. Watch what takes place. Enjoy this next 21 days. All of you will get at least one reminder and some of you, many reminders of your magic, of your gifts, of your abilities. You have a unique flavor of light.
There came a time when the Keeper began channeling as he calls it. He was reading a book from the Kryon energy and he asked us, "Do you guys know Kryon?" And we laughed and thought that hilarious because at Home we are not separate from each other the way you are pretending to be separate from each other. We said, "We think this is wonderful but we must share with you that there will come a time when you will pull away the veil and you will find out that you have all been talking to the same entities. You will find out that you have been talking to a portion of you." You are being well-guided through this journey as long as you learn to listen, as long as you learn to push those boundaries. Take each step, run it through your own filters. Just because we speak this is not an adequate reason for you to take this. Like new clothes, new ideas should be tried on first to see how they fit. We hope you play with it and we hope you adjust those pieces that fit for you and throw away the rest because there are no messages that will go out and reach every heart. Take what resonates with you and bring it in. You have been doing this with thoughts, belief systems and ideas. You will now begin to discern light. Light on your planet is changing. It is actually not changing – you are changing and you are starting to perceive a part of light that you have not seen before. You believe light to be photon particles that you receive from the sun or from your devices but we tell you, light in the human body is felt as love and you are about to feel this incredible wave and when you do, reach your hands out and hold each other's hands. That is how you ground this energy. That is how you look in each other's light and see your reflection as a creator being. Hold it proud, dear ones. We are so incredibly proud of you. You are the sons and the daughters of the king and you do not re-member your royal heritage but we do and you are in the right place at the right time. Dance with this light. Play with it. Reflect it first to see yourself then help the other gods awaken from the dream. That is called an empowered society and you are moving in that direction at the speed of love right now. Enjoy the ride.
It is with the greatest of honor that we ask you to treat each other with respect. You are looking in the eyes of god when you do. Nurture one another and open every door that you can for your fellow beings because you are helping the collective take the next step. Understand that you are playing a game and play well together.

I have been enjoying our time at home recently. We do not travel with a Lightworker event until September which means we have the entire summer to enjoy the Las Vegas heat! I am thankful for swimming pools and air conditioning! Being home is not as relaxing as I just portrayed. We are working from home with our on-line seminars and doing various events which keep us very busy. I say working but with anything we do with Lightworker it is not really work because we enjoy it so much. In one way I miss the traveling to many parts of this world every month connecting to loving people but in another way I am happy to be where I am.
What an amazing journey of life we are on. Somehow the beginning of summer makes my playful sides come out. I feel more alive. I remember, as a child, the end of the school years when I danced with excitement with the reality that I had three whole months to celebrate unscheduled time to simply be me. Every day was an awakening to what the day presented with the possibilities of fun and explorations waiting to explore. I choose to create that memory into my existence today. Yes, I have more responsibilities in my life now but I know it is important to connect with my playful self. Not only can this bring more happiness in my own life but the joy will be contagious to all who I connect with.
What really matters in life? This is a question that I will ask myself every day. I know that we are evolving creatures so the question will not always be answered in the same way. Each day presents a new side of who I am and who I am becoming.
Life is a quest that brings us those glorious up moments then turns around to teach us lessons sometimes in a challenging way. Live and savor in the joyful times. Then when the usually unexpected so called struggles appear you will be more prepared to handle them. Life is a teeter-totter of balance. It really is a game. Enjoy playing.
My favorite words from a song James Taylor wrote are "The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time." Isn't this what really matters?
With Love and Light

Electric Vehicle Plant Bringing Jobs to North MississippiBy Daniel Cherry | Published 08 Jul 2012 09:02pm |
A new electric vehicle manufacturing plant is beginning operations in North Mississippi. MPB's Daniel Cherry has more on how local leaders are excited about the potential for thousands of new jobs in the area.
GreenTech Automotive announced they're beginning production of their MyCar, a two-seat, all electric vehicle in Horn Lake. It's a move the company says will create more than 400 direct jobs, and about 74 hundred more indirectly. Horn Lake Mayor, Nat Baker, is looking forward to having more jobs for residents, most of all because they don't have to drive to Memphis to get to work.
"It keeps people at home. The residual income as far as taxes and all is created through buying at the grocery stores and the shopping malls and all. So the city benefits in more ways than just one."
GreenTech officials say they chose Mississippi because the state offered the most aggressive incentive program. Jay Moon, President of the Mississippi Manufacturers Association believes automotive manufacturing is taking off in the state because foreign companies see plenty of opportunity.
"Really, the biggest issue for most businesses is workforce. How do I get the workforce? How do I train the workforce so I can make a world-class product? We have that workforce here in Mississippi."
The company announced they plan to produce 10 thousand of the vehicles in the coming year. Congressman Alan Nunnelee was on hand for the unveiling, and he's glad to see the plant opening up and bringing more jobs to his district.
"Mississippi has what manufacturing is looking for. We've got a stable tax base, we passed tort reform, and we have a great work force. You put all those things together and the future is bright for Mississippi."
The first year's output is slated to be sent overseas to Denmark.
