Three years into her recovery from a devastating knee injury, skier Kelly VanderBeek remains focused on competing in the 2014 Olympics in Sochi.
The 29-year-old Kitchener native, who finished fourth in the 2006 Olympic Winter Games super-G event, tore three ligaments in her left knee when she crashed during a training run on Dec. 17, 2009, in Val-d'Isere, France.
Her recovery has involved multiple surgeries and a great deal of patience, but it hasn't kept her from looking ahead.
"The goal is to be fast in Sochi," VanderBeek says. "That's the No. 1 goal and that's what we've been trying. To find a timeline that could work on that ultimate goal."
VanderBeek, a member of the national alpine ski team, originally returned in January to compete in four World Cup races, finishing no better than 38th place and at least six-seconds back of the leader.
It was an achievement just to race again after such a devastating injury, but she knew she was still far from her former self.
"I was able to do it, I was able to get down the mountain, but I just realized the pain I was in was far too high for me to be able to race fast," VanderBeek says. "If I want to be fast again, I needed to try a different approach."
VanderBeek and husband, David Ford, a member of the Canadian National Kayak Team, moved from Chilliwack, B.C., to Canmore, Alta., this fall.
The move allows VanderBeek to take full advantage of The Canmore Nordic Centre Provincial Park, home of Canada's national Cross-Country ski teams, and all of the professional teams' trainers and medical staff.
"It's bizarre, you turn left and you see an Olympic gold medallist, you turn right and you see a world champion, you turn another direction and you see an Olympic and world champion," VanderBeek says. "It's a pretty cool environment to be around."
She started working more on the strength and balance in her knee. One of her first goals in Alberta was to be able to jump on her left leg without feeling pain. It took longer than expected but she successfully managed it in September.
Also, instead of pushing through pain during workouts in the gym like she had in the past, she started avoiding any discomfort and focused on building the muscles around the knee.
VanderBeek continues to do a lot of cycling and has begun using the Burdenko Method, a form of water therapy that can help rehabilitate injuries and increase overall fitness.
"Once I find a balance or can figure out how to train without aggravating the knee, that's going to be the first piece of the puzzle," VanderBeek says.
Although she didn't have the chance to ski in the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, VanderBeek worked with CTV as an analyst for the alpine skiing events.
In 2012, she returned to CTV for the London Games and hosted a television series called Raising an Olympian where she spoke to the mothers of Canadian Olympic athletes.
VanderBeek enjoyed the experiences but isn't ready to hang up her skis for a position in the media.
Having not raced since February, she just started skiing again three weeks ago, alternating one day on, two days off. Her knee continues to feel better but she will wait until the new year to make any decision regarding another comeback.
"For me, I really want to get back to racing but I don't feel like I've wasted the last three years, I truly don't," VanderBeek says. "I feel like the process, like with any other athlete, there's never any guarantee.
"Just because I was rehabbing isn't any different than an athlete whose been struggling and maybe not getting the results they wanted."
The recovery period has been trying, but it hasn't deterred VanderBeek's motivation.
"I'm still here, I'm still a fighter," VanderBeek says. "I look forward and am excited for whatever's next to come in life because it's an interesting process and an interesting journey."

text: Destroyed by Occupiers, LA Unveils New $550,000 City Hall Lawn Print article Send a Tip by John Sexton 17 Jul 2012 post a comment When Occupy LA took up residence in the park around LA's City Hall in 2011 the building was surrounded by a well-maintanined lawn. Months of camping at the site reduced it to a filthy, barren landscape where only the trees survived (and some of them had been damaged too). The campers were removed by LAPD in late November. Fences went up and maintenance workers spent months repairing the damage. Thursday the fences around LA's City Hall will come down and visitors will get their first glimpse of the new $550,000 greenscape. KPCC public radio reports that total was supplemented by donations from "Scott's, Home Depot, a turf company, and the Metropolitan Water District." Occupy LA has been relatively quiet since the camp was cleared but they are not gone. Just last week the group tagged along with something called Art Walk by recommending people chalk the sidewalk and walls in something they called "Chalk Walk." The result was a melee/riot in which several protesters and police were injured. With the former home of the Occupy LA camp reopening this week, it's natural to wonder if the group will once again choose to occupy it. Rules about overnight camping prevent anyone from setting up a tent or sleeping anywhere on the refurbished site, but the same rules were in effect last year. As Occupy demonstrated then, rules only matter if the authorities in charge have the courage to enforce them. Last year it took Mayor Villaraigosa three months to go from tacit support of the camp to full scale LAPD raid. Will we see a repeat this year?

The New York City music scene is vast and diverse. There's so much going on weekly, sometimes daily, that it's hard to keep up with. But there's something of merit coming from New York right now that will be worth your attention: Secret Weapons. It's an apt name for a band that hasn't released any music as of yet and is biding their time until the distribute it to the public. It's also apt because what they have is under wraps, but it will blow your mind. An offshoot of the band Night Fevers, Secret Weapons is comprised of Danny Rocco and Gerry Lange. Earlier this month, Lange and Rocco gave us a sneak listen to their new music and Rocco talked a little bit about Secret Weapons.
AA: What were you doing before Secret Weapons and why did you move on from that?
SW: We were in a band called Night Fevers before this. We did some good things. We had some licensing placements and did some things and got them on MTV and things like that. The band was a little stale at the end though. I wasn't a big fan of the music. Gerry and I wrote everything and then it kind of got watered down by the end of it. We toured and we had some decent buzz in the city. It just wasn't working out so we decided to do our own thing and that's where we are a year later.
AA: How long has the new music been in the works?
SW: We've been working on this secretly for the past couple of months. We've made this link to reach out to a few people and see what the response is before we throw it out to the rest of the world. I think we're going to take two or three of the best ones and then put them up on YouTube and see what happens. We're just going to try and get the word out as much as we can. We don't have a team right now, we're just doing this D.I.Y. We recorded this in my apartment and that's basically the strategy that we're going with.
AA: It's just the two of you right? Who's the other guy in the picture?
SW: There's two of us. Gerry and I. In the picture our live drummer Will Tully is there too. This is really a duo with making the music. We wrote, recorded, and produced everything on our own but Will helps us out with shows.
AA: What have you been able to do with live show so far?
SW: We've been rehearsing for months and months. We've learned a lot from being in bands here in the city before. We want to put on the craziest show possible. We want to take the best parts of a Coldplay concert and all of the best parts of an EDM show - all of our favorite parts - and put them all into one. The live setup will be crazy, we'll be running around and hitting stuff that we set up all over. We just booked a bunch of shows in June to get our chops up and hopefully we'll book some bigger shows in July.
You'll have to wait a few more weeks until the music from Secret Weapons surfaces. When it does, we'll have it for you right here on Alternative Addiction.

She has been awarded the Qantas Spirit of Youth Award and a Churchill fellowship. In an interview with Stated Magazine, Leav revealed that "writing is my first love […] and will usually display one [poem] alongside a painting" or "incorporate my poetry into the actual works".

The shampoo really makes your hair feel clean and revitalized, while the conditioner ensures the most touchably soft locks.

I'm not going to try this on my own machine (today's a work day), but couldn't you 'force' a reinstall of 10.4.3 by deleting the receipt for it (in /Library/Receipts) and then relaunching the 10.4.3 updater?
Obviously this does not help people who already are running 10.4.4, but for those still on 10.4.3 (dare I call them the 'smart ones'?) this should do the trick.

Constitutional Law
This is fascinating. Our conservative Supreme Court is saying that restraints upon trade which are wholly anathema to all known concepts of capitalism, may be ok if some judge says it's ok. As Judge Breyer points out, WalMart will not suffer as they pretty much dictate market price of the products it sells, but the small businessman, who cannot compete on that basis, will have to price the product not based upon market forces-capitalism's basis-but upon the might of the mfg. Ok, while that might simply mean that any mfg. can restrict who sells its product, which is also a capitalistic notion, the Supreme Courtis ignoring every known antitrust law on the books,and is taking an activist role, which has been the bane of the conservative wing of the Court. What's going on? For those fans of George Orwell, it seems the face of the enemy is changing…the activist judges are now conservative and conservatives in Congress are raising taxes. Am I the only one who's confused?
One of the main reasons why manufacturers seek to have price floors on their products is to prevent those products from being commoditized (and the brand value diminished) by too much retail discounting. These price floors don't prevent competing products from entering the market. Indeed if there are viable competing products, the OEM will be forced to differentiate their product better or accept commoditization. In other words, price floors don't hinder competition or market pricing, but are more of a calculated marketing risk. Not arguing legal theory here, just common sense from a business playing field view.
Lee -
the "small dealers and worthy men" argument consistently loses in antitrust, as well it should. if every mom and pop store goes out of business, well, so be it – they can't compete with walmart. If you're worried about them, lobby Congress: don't rely on antitrust to bail you out.
Further, RPM stimulates competition at the retail level by forcing merchants to compete on point of sale services. this prevents free-riding, a form of economic waste.
i hope this clears up your misconceptions about what the court did.
It appears to me that we have entered the next age of the Robber Baron. Supported by the so-called conservatives, the Titans of Industry have just been given a free pass to artificially restrict markets and create the haves versus the have-nots. Or in another way of stating it, he who has the gold makes the rules.
I wonder what the triggering event will be to move the pendulum away from the elitist mentality? Perhaps gas price floors?
Great day to be a mogul or a segregationist.
Fort Worth 3L, price floor agreementss have existed for a long time, the court was simply upholding such structures; not granting them anew. That they have existed for so long without the dark scenario you portray ever actually materializing pretty much shoots your assertion down. Take some business classes while your in law school.
Consider this as well: Has the exclusive, premium nature of Harley-Davidson motrocycles prevented competition in the motorcycle industry? No; in fact it's increased it as the other manufacture seek to copy Harley's success formula. Look at all the Harley look-a-like bikes available now!
The "free-riding" argument is absurd.
I don't understand the logic of the so-called conservatives who support RPM — it is a price control. If wage minimums and rent minimums are bad as a distortions of the fee market, how is this different? There is no consistent conservative principles behind RPM's supporters – they support the outcome and the beneficiaries at the expense of the underlying economic and legal structure.
Seller X offers for sale a widget at $50, and he offers in-store demos, instruction, advice, etc. These services (provided by workers in X's store) cost X money.
Buyer sees the widget in X's store and loves it, thanks largely to the demos, etc. Without RPM, Buyer goes next door to Seller Y who does not provide such services. Because Y has lower overhead, Y can sell the widget for $45.
Buyer has therefore received the value of X's services, but paid for Y's good. Seller X and his employees have gotten the shaft. Seller Y is free-riding off X's efforts.
The whole "conservative" thing is absurd: with RPM, Seller Y can't sell for less than $50. Therefore, Buyer will buy from Seller X and X won't have to fire his employees. So, RPM is stimulating competition among retailers AND keeping people in jobs. I thought it was the libs who look out for the "little guy."
Next time, try actually making an argument.
the "free rider" argument is bogus
This decision will make it more difficult for small or Internet retailers to sell products at a lower price and that will hurt consumers. As a result of the decision, competition among retailers will decrease. At the same time, the decision bolsters the ability of manufacturers to tell the retailers what to do and have more control of prices. This will also ultimately hurt consumers. No matter how you cut it, the decision does not increase competition and does not help consumers. Once more, the Court decided against competition and for the monopolists.
Free riding sounds great in theory but if you read any cases you'll never see any concrete examples of it. For one, except for the rare once a decade purchase like a car or a house, research shows consumers are unwilling to schlep from store-to-store to get that in-store demo then go somewhere else for price. Two, there's the internet where the sophisticated buyer will turn for reviews, advice rather than going to get an in-store demo from a salesperson. Three, the argument does not apply to fungible goods – meaning most of the stuff you buy, like toothpaste and toilet paper. (However, minimum price maintenance will now apply to these fungible goods. Colgate to consumers – we can't let Wal-Mart sell toothpaste for less than $3 a tube because you probably got inticed at the better-staffed Target up the road.) Finally, here's a real-world example that debunks free-riding. Apple initially began selling ipods in new york only at their store, where there were substantial services like demos and advice. A couple years later it had an internal debate about whether to allow other stores (that do not provide those services) like circuit city to sell them. A question was whether allowing the other retailers to sell it would 'cannibalize' the Apple's store's sales. The result – no. The free rider theory is like the Sasquatch – it does not exist.
There are some solid economic arguments for minimum rpm, but the free-riding theory is not one of them.
The Court says "it is a flawed antitrust doctrine that serves the interests of lawyers." In fact, it is quite the opposite. The old rule was a "per se" rule, i.e., it applied without qualification and there was not too much to dispute. The Court now imposes a "rule of reason" approach. This means that every case will be argued in detail. This will generate tremendous new business for antitrust lawyers and consulting firms. THANK YOU Justice Kennedy!
I don't see what the Apple example proves. Apple uses RPM – I defy anyone here to find an iPod on sale from a merchant at a lower price. The fact that some people bought from Apple and others from Circuit City proves nothing because there was no price difference. If Circuit City could have sold for less than what Apple did, then I'm sure that (i) Apple wouldn't have let CC sell and/or (ii) Apple would have been cannibalized. As for fungible goods, it's unlikely that any manufacturer would use RPM for exactly the reason you note – demand is too elastic. RPM is most useful on more expensive goods for which substitution is unlikely. See, e.g., iPod. I guarantee that if Walmart could sell and iPod for $20 less than Target could, people would "schlep" to Walmart over Target to get it.
Anyone who equates this to price fixing is seriously misinformed. This only allows an individual manufacturer to set the price of his individual good. Just because some hoity toity handbag designer wants $400 for her handbags does not in any way set prices in the industry. Anyone who wants to can sell a similar bag at whatever price they please. This is nothing more than freedom of contract and the freedom to sell your good at whatever price you deem fit. If I want to sell my new invention at $1000 and no one wants to buy it, then I won't make any money, but it should be up to me, not some third party merchant, what price I want consumers to have to pay.
And anyone who thinks the free rider problem doesn't exist should immedeately nominate himself for this years Darwin Award.
To "Disappointed Conservative": This decision will NOT make it any more difficult for small (e)retailers to sell merchandise since this decision didn't grant any new powers, but merely upheld existing business practices. It allows the status quo to continue and changes nothing, and to assert otherwise is nonsense. These arrangements have existed for a long time without creating monopoly power. Monopoly power is when there's only one manufactured brand of something. That Colgate may restrict sales of it's toothpaste to no less than $3.00 per doesn't prevent another brand from selling a competing product wherever they want for whatever price! If you think these arrangements take so much power away from retailers and puts it in the hand of OEMs, then why don't we see more vertically integrated sales channels?! The idea that this decision would stifle competition is patently absurd – don't they teach basic econ in schools anymore?
3:40. I think you too easily dismiss the "some third party merchant" as an unimportant part of the maker, seller, customer triumvirate. These merchants are, however, the ones who have have bought the good from you – the maker – and have possession over it. So I see less freedom from this ruling, as I think is natural from most price controls. (However, I do agree with you that there is a fundamental difference between minimum RPM and government-mandated price controls, i.e. wage controls). What this rule will do is tell those merchants is that they don't have the freedom to do what they want, even if market conditions have turned and their inventories are rising.
Harley Rider, I'm not following you. Did you miss the part about this decision overturning existing law? Maybe it's the Harley example, which are only sold through vertical channels (I think)? Just trying to understand what you mean by calling the new law the "status quo."
To Harley Rider: Obviously you are wrong in stating that the decision "changes nothing" — the Supreme Court would not issue a decision reversing the appelate court if it changed nothing. This decision will reduce competition in retailing and give more power to manufacturers. It may lead to more vertical integration in the future — not in the past as you state.
Minimum resale pricing agreements have been happening for decades regardless of the law. This ruling merely removes possible legal challenges to them in the future, but it doesn't change existing practices and thus won't change market balances. Harley dealerships are independently owned and operated, not by The Motor Company, and they aren't franchises. Same set up as the car business.
This decision is an abomination and not inline at all with modern retail realities. The supreme court has just made it impossible to find a bargain (intra-brand), even though the internet and new technologies that allow a customer to compare prices by scanning a product's bar code. And doesn't bargain shopping promote economic efficiency by allowing consumers to put greater resources into things they value more? This decision is an example of conservative principals being coopted to justify narrow interests- in this case, the interests of a few large manufactures.
Note that any benefit to working people (presumably product demonstrators) that may arise from eliminating free riders (one result of RPM agreements) will quickly disappear when those same product demonstrators need to pay more for goods due to the RPM agreements.
The ruling does not "remove possible legal challenges" to resale pricing arrangements. Instead, it states that each case will be examined in detail on its merits. It is great for my business but terrible for small businesses who will now have to pay much more in legal and consulting fees to challenge a manufacturer.
Anyone knows that RoR analysis effectively damns any antitrust case. It is a fiction that they can be won when examined on a case by case basis. The per se rule is really just burden shifting. It may always be rebutted by D showing a pro competitive effect. Yet, a per se case is the only antitrust case that can be won (in most instances), as a RoR plaintiff almost always loses. The fact that most manufacturers could not rebut the per se presumption is proof that RPM does not generally have a pro-competitive effect.
The decline of antitrust law under the current (and previous) administration(s) and lax enforcement have led to a level of consolidation/concentration in the market not seen for 100 years (back when Dr. Miles came down). At the present level of concentration, large manufactures, aided by RPM, can ensure that consumers are "trained" to pay full price always, and thus they will be "trained" not to wait for discounts or to seek out volume sellers/low overhead sellers (i.e., those retail sellers engaged in fierce competition). The result? More consolidation/oligopolistic coordination and less money in your pocket as a consumer. Say good bye to Costco (which does sell cheaper iPods BTW) and discount retailers that sell name brand clothes. Now nothing stands in the way of "elite" brands using advertising to create a separate market for their products, in which they can set price. The casual consumer, who would prefer to buy more for less, will be tricked out of ignorance into buying less for more. Monopolistic dead weight loss will result and we all will lose out.
I'm glad I started the discussion, but my point was not that in some instances it may help someone, but that the Supreme Court is taking an activist role where it benefits big business, but decries activism in civil rights, personal freedoms and those less cash-driven areas. Anonymous caught it, this decision overruled Miles, which precluded price-fixing. Simple. Congress could have changed it, but didn't. The rule of reason in price fixing is similar to the rule of reason in breaking any law. Our courts will have to examine the facts and Happy Antitrust Lawyer will have a field day. He's honestly going to take advantage of this huge judicially created hole in very clear law. Sorry, but we're in for a lot of trouble if we think this will help consumers. I agree that mom and pop stores may have to fold and maybe that's what capitalism is about. But if mom and pop folds because of a judge's ruling, that makes me wonder what is the market force? By the way, I am an attorney with an undergrad degree in economics. As an economist and an atty, this seems outrageous. Both fields require some consistency and this just isn't it.
This decision gives firms the freedom to ensure quality service.
Inter-brand competition will increase.
Lee: who were you econ professor?
How can you not understand: "what is the market force?"
While this might not affect Wal Mart as it currently exists, what will it do to the next retailer that figures out a cheaper way to get goods to consumers? That retailer now needs a judge's permission each time they want to discount another product. The point is that Wal Mart could never have grown from a small discounter to the largest retailer on the face of the planet under this rule.
I am a small retailer of a "mom and pop" store. Of the many manufacturers we sell, a handful of them have required us to sell goods at their MSRP. We comply because we like to carry those brands; they sell well at the MSRP, our customers appreciate the extra services we provide (and there are many). When the items are past season, or discontinued, we are allowed to offer them on sale at a discount. FYI when you see discounters such as COSTCO selling "name brands" they are selling either last seasons or last years offerings, or a special version of the designers let's say jeans; a version made up especially for COSTCO. Could also be manufacturers' overruns, etc. If a manufacturer engages in contract price floor agreements, then theoretically discounters like COSTCO cannot get the product. Of course exceptions do occur; third parties sell under the table, so-called "gray market" goods can appear, etc.
No one HAS to buy designer goods.
Leegin/Brighton although by far does most of its business on a wholesale basis, also operates its own retail stores which carry only their product. Isn't that the conflict?
No one knows exactly how this will shake out. At first blush, manufacturers have more control because they now can impose min RPM. But many were already doing that through Colgate policies and MAP policies. In markets with powerful retailers, they now could ask manufacturers to impose min RPM to enforce a price-fixing scheme. It's also not clear that many manufacturers will respond. Min RPM is still per se illegal under NY state law. Where min RPM is subject to the RoR, some manufacturers will avoid antitrust challenges by retailers by maintaining their Colgate policies and MAP policies instead of adopting min RPM. Will our happy antitrust lawyer get more business? Probably at least in consulting as manufacturers try to figure out what to do. Will consumers benefit? Only if the increase in retail prices (which overall will probably happen) can be offset by the benefits of additional retail services. The S.Ct. has thrown retailing into a soup of uncertainty.
Modern Economics
I had several econ professors, as that is usually the way things work at college. That's the place where you learn stuff. My most influential professor was Paul Vail, Senior Emeritus Professor of Economics, Miami University,whose passing in 1999 certainly dealt a blow to the academic world. I can promise you he would turn over in his grave at the notion that "market forces" include judicial fiat. By the way, if reading is something you're into, the Sherman Antitrust Act is a pithy work that has withstood the test of time…until this week. It has a lot of neat concepts, most of which have been lost on a Court hell bent to bring conservatism to its knees in favor of Bushian Dogmocracy.
I do agree with Small Retailer and Uncertain Soup, who I commend on a shrewd understanding of the fact we don't know if there will be any short term economic effects. However, this is a Law Blog and I am certain there will be very grave short and long haul effects of a Court that will reach any goal it wishes regardless of the laws and facts. I see no uncertainty there.
Maybe I'm dense, but doesn't this mean Toyota Motor Corp. could legally require its dealers to sell its NEW vehicles at Toyota's MSRP. Toyota Dealer competition on price for these units would become non-existant.
The court is justifying this action with the logic OTHER brands are out their willing to discount; therefore this action by Toyota would be acceptable.
Sounds like the Large successful manufacturer is being rewarded by this anti-consumer "Majority" that is happy to reward those who have the $$$$$$$ and are able & willing to pay the PRICE for ANYTHING they DESIRE!
I sincerely hope the Progressives on SCOTUS keep breathing until the outraged public selects a Progressive President who won't appoint more Roberts & Alitos to the bench.
America the land of "The Rich"
Parity –
your outrage assumes that Toyota has some kind of monopoly, which it does not. Yes, Toyota could say to its dealers, "sell at "X" price," but that doesn't mean (i) it will or (ii) that people have to buy it. If Toyota were the ONLY seller of cars in the USA, then, yes, this could be troubling. But do you actually think Toyota would require its dealers to charge higher prices when they are already beating their competitors with their present pricing scheme? I think your anger is a little premature and off-base. Remember – this decision DOES NOT LEGALIZE PRICE FIXING: it merely says that each RPM agreement will be looked at on the merits under rule of reason analysis. God forbid government actually lets people act and think for themselves!! What will the libs do without big brother guiding all aspects of life?!?!?
I disagree with your statement that this "does not legalize price fixing". It most certainly does legalize it, as long is it is reasonable. The Miles decision was clear. No price fixing deals, period. Now, no price fixing arrangement is illegal, it only needs to be tested in court. This means that judges will be deciding the economics of a business arrangement. This means also that both sides will bring in expert witnesses who will say it's side is right. That also means more work for Happy Antitrust, and me too, as I'm one of those nasty trial attys a lot of you want to go out of business. That also means more jury trials, and..you know how bad they are. Did you stop and think that your position allows me to make more money? I swear I would give it up if it meant our Supreme Court would be consistent.
Again, let's focus, Anonymous is saying that he decries gov't intervention because it does not allow people to think for themselves, but when a court does the very same thing, it's ok? Sorry, you cannot to blame the liberals for the Sherman Antitrust Act, and let the conservative judges off the hook when they overrule it. It is not that the Court is allowing us to think for ourselves, it is that it is giving big business the right to break laws if they can find an expert to say…well, just about anything. Think of it this way, if there is a law you don't like, do you violate it? Our Supreme Court just said that is ok, if it is reasonable. I know, you're saying some laws can't be violated, like murder or allowing illegal immigrants a free pass. So who will make the decision on which laws made by Congress shall be ignored? I would rather not have to be the one decide. But as an atty, I may be a judge someday. So, attys like me may be given that job. Are you ok with that? Remember civics, the Congress makes the law, the Executive branch carries them out and the Judicial branch interprets. The Sherman Antitrust Act says there shall be "no restraint of trade". Is that so hard to figure?
if we gave the sherman act your reading, then all non-competes, etc. would be invalid PER SE. there has always (at least since the Court got a clue regarding economics) been a "reasonableness" standard under the sherman act. the per se rule is too rigid – it blanketly outlaws that which can actually be of benefit too the manufacturers, dealers, and consumers. i really don't see how overruling Dr. Miles is going to change anything for the negative.
First of all, the per se rule has always been the law as to price fixing. If you read the opinion, especially the dissent, you will see that Dr. Miles stood for the proposition that per se applies to all price fixing. I am unclear how you can say that in light of 100 yrs of precedent to the contrary. Second, my reading of the Sherman Antitrust Act has nothing to do with non-competes, which, if reasonable, have always been upheld absent a state statute to the contrary. Note that the fact a state can make such a law means Congress did not preempt the field by passing Sherman, it only set up some very strict rules regarding price fixing and other clearly monopolistic tactics. If I go to work for a company and they want me to sign a non-compete, I can chose not to go to work for them or sign the agreement and take my chances that it will later be held invalid. But, Sherman applies to restraints of trade, not to a company's desire to protect it's trade secrets and/or employee investment. If Congress had passed such a law, we could have a different discussion. It did not and you are simply incorrect. You also noted that "since the Court got a clue regarding economics" it has relaxed per se. As I mentioned above, that is wrong, but my point is that it is not the Court's job to focus in on economics. If we gave Sherman your reading, which is the way the Court is viewing its duty, then any law, no matter how clear, is subject to being overruled because the Congress didn't have the same brilliant insight the majority proclaims rules the day. Would that mean that our immigration laws should be ignored as the economics is that the entire produce industry benefits by illegals? Without them, and the present state of the law is that they must be deported, prices of fruit and vegetables will go up. But that is for Congress to decide, not an activist Court. Finally, you and I agree on one thing, you don't see how overruling will change anything. I do, and it uclear who is correct. If WalMart forces suppliers to sell only to them, any judge could allow it. Who knows? While that may have no short term effect on prices, as the competition disappears, it may cause prices to raise. But the Court doesn't need to address that, if the lower court decides the contract is not designed to restrain trade, it will be ok. I really don't want to engage in soothsaying, only that this decision indicates what this Court will do in the name of economics, but will not do the name of humanity. So when you say we don't want activist judges or more trial lawyers using the system to change laws, remember this decision and how it will do precisely what you don't want.
there are really only two justifications for per se RPM illegality, neither of which hold water in practice: (1) the fear that RPM will enable manufacturing cartels. However, in order for this to ever be a valid concern, the manufacturers must be an oligopoly AND the manufacturers would need identical RPM agreements, which would allow the manufacturers to detect "cheating" on the cartel. The chance of this happening is slim to none, and even if it did, the oligopolisitic use of RPM at the manufacturer level to cartelize could more accurately be characterized as a "facilitating practice," which gets rule of reason analysis anyway. (2) the fear that min RPM facilitates cartelization at the dealer level. This assumes that the dealers have monopsony power against the manufacturers AND monopoly power in the selling market. What are the odds of that actually happening?
While I agree that the rule of law and stare decisis are important concepts, if there is one area of the law where the court has a shaky body of precedent, it's anitrust. I really don't understand how you can say that it's not the court's job to focus on economics in antitrust. That's the court's main job! Antitrust protects competition, Lee, I think you're losing sight of that. don't be suckered into the "small dealers and worthy men" argument, because antitrust is simply not the place for it. this is not constitutional law or immigration – it's court-enforced economic policy, and it always has been.
All I know is I just got back from Walmart and my gallon of milk just went up $1. And that ticks me off because my groceries are a large portion of my meager budget. Stop playing around with the poor and middle class. We are barely getting by!
Perhaps I should say more. While reading this diatribe of anti trust laws and small dealers and worthy men I'm considering what a bunch of idiots we have in this world that are only interested in the dollar that benefits them at their level because that's all they see. They don't see the effect (or is that affect?)whatever, of what happens to the bottom line, my bottom line, the bottom line of the majority of the people in this world who actuall yhave to count their pennies before they can go to the store to buy the gallon of milk just to find out it went up $1 overnight and they didn't bring enough pennies to get it because some one person wasn't making quite enough money and one person was making too much money and oh! poor baby, I bet they get to dring their glass of milk tonight.

text: 2 notes Posted 23, January, 2014 Sci-Fi Greats Issac Azimov and Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry developed a unique relationship during Star Trek's initial launch in the late 1960s. Asimov wrote a critical essay on Star Trek's scientific accuracy for TV Guidemagazine. Roddenberry retorted respectfully with a personal letter explaining the limitations of accuracy when writing a weekly series. Asimov corrected himself with a follow-up essay to TV Guide claiming despite its inaccuracies, that Star Trek was a fresh and intellectually challenging science fiction television show. The two remained friends to the point where Asimov even served as an advisor on a number of Star Trek projects. #azimov #roddenberry #star trek #1960s

Hi, I have looked but can't seem to find the answer. I have a Garmin watch, is there any way I can upload my exercise stats from that into My Fitness Pal please?

Thank you for reaching out to us for support. Currently our only hardware integration is the FitBit pedometer. You can however enter custom exercises by following these directions.
If you roughly know how many calories you are burning via a heart rate monitor, etc., then you can add the exercise in yourself. Just go to "cardiovascular" and then "create new exercise". Since this will be an individual estimate, it will be for your personal database and not the main database.
Or, for a "rough" estimate, you can try substituting a similar exercise already in our database. Again, please remember this will be a rough estimate.
Also please note that our program currently only calculates calories burned via our "cardiovascular" section. Estimating the calories burned from strength training is very difficult because it depends on a variety of factors: how much weight you lifted per repetition, how vigorously you performed that exercise, how much rest you took between sets, etc. Because of this, we do not automatically calculate how many calories you burned from strength training exercises.
If you like, you can try to search for the same or similar exercise in our "cardiovascular" database. If you can not find the exercise, you can do a general search for "Strength training" in the cardiovascular database, please be aware though that this is definitely a rough estimate and can be fairly inaccurate. Or you could also create your own "strength training workout" via the "create new exercise" also in the cardiovascular section.
Hope this helps for now. In the meantime, thanks so much for using the program. Please let us know if you have any additional feedback, problems or questions. We wish you all the success in reaching and maintaining all of your diet and fitness goals.
All the best,
MyFitnessPal Staff

Thanks for the reply Tom. I have to say i am finding MFP extremely user-friendly, and have managed to navigate my way round more quickly than I anticipated. I added 'my own' exercise last night and it was very straightforward. :)

submitter's comment: I went to high school with this kid. After graduating I guess he decided he would tattoo people from his house, despite not even having the talent to draw. I wish I could link his album of atrocities he has committed on peoples' skin but after I wrote this he blocked me. I guess that only proves he knows I'm right.

Stink Vessels
Charles Stephenson introduces a plan for chemical warfare in the Napoleonic navy, devised by Thomas Cochrane, Lord Dundonald, the model for Patrick O'Brien's Jack Aubrey.
Many accounts of the origins of chemical warfare claim that the practice was evolved in antiquity, usually citing references from Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War. Later examples of where the method was applied often include the siege of Constantinople in 1453, and attempts to foil Cromwell's miners at Edinburgh Castle in 1650. More modern attempts are rather better documented: for example, the Playfair proposal to utilize 'cyanide of cacodyl' during the Crimean War, various schemes put forward during the American Civil War, threats to utilize 'grand chemical agents of wholesale destruction' during the 1870-71 investment of Paris, and the Japanese use of burning material 'soaked in arsenic' at the siege of Port Arthur.

Great Hold, Adds Body, my new HG of Gels!
6 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer1432146 on Jun 10, 2010
Purchased at iHerb
I have fine hair and this works wonders. I actually stopped using gels for quite some time now but when switching to green/organic products I decided to try this out. It adds body and has a great amount of hold for me when blow drying and/or styling with heat tools. My hair doesn't hold curl well and this helps it to do so. As others have said you need to use a small amount or else it may be too much and make your hair stiff. I use just a small amount, smaller in diameter than a contact and put it through my hair evenly. LOVE THIS GEL!
The best gel ever!

I love this gel for my extremely thin and limp hair. It adds fullness and body. It does not flake or leave a white residue even when I put too much on my hair.
Love it!

I am a hairdresser and use Giovanni products exclusively. They all work wonderfully and don't have any nasty toxins or harmful chemicals in them. Go figure. You don't need that stuff to be beautiful on the outside. My clients use the products too. Enjoy. You won't be disappointed.

Having made the decision to rebuild after the bushfires of 2009, I chose Busby Homes, initially because of the caring and sincere customer service.

The few very minor issues after completion were dealt with promptly and pleasantly. With Busby Homes rebuilding for several families in a small community, I am happy to say that each house design is different and caters for individual tastesand needs.
