Facilitation for Attorneys
This course is designed to help students develop an understanding of the practice of facilitation in the legal context and to develop skills as facilitators. As the practice of law becomes more complex, it includes more and more situations where groups of people need to work together. Common examples include: planning complex legal strategies, developing firm policies, coordinating work among attorneys and staff, working with corporations or other multi-person clients, shareholder meetings, public commissions and councils, corporate and non-profit Board of Directors meetings. Countless hours are spent in meetings - a typical lawyer in the United States can expect to spend at least 10,000 hours in meetings during his or her working life. This course will help students improve the quality of both the processes and products of meetings, as a facilitator, leader, or meeting participant. Class Schedule dates: Sunday Oct 26 from 8:30 - 5:30, Friday Oct. 31 from 1-6, and Sunday Nov. 9 from 8:30 - 5:30. Elements used in grading: Class attendance, participation and final paper.

Biography (Beacham's Guide to Literature for Young Adults)
Born October 17, 1934, into the working class at Alderley Edge, Cheshire, in northwestern England, Alan Garner was chronically ill for most of his first ten years, suffering from spinal and cerebral meningitis, diphtheria, pleurisy, and pneumonia. But these early bedridden years were formative for the future author. Forced to entertain himself, he invented stories, inspired by the irregular walls of his room, which he viewed as a fantasy landscape.
When he was eleven, Garner's health greatly improved and he quickly demonstrated outstanding abilities at the local school in Alderley Edge and at grammar (high) school in Manchester as a student and an athlete. He was so fiercely competitive as a sprinter, he said that he would have quit the sport the moment someone beat him in a race, but no one did. Garner went on to Magdalen College, Oxford, where he studied classical Greek literature and archeology and developed an interest in acting. He left Oxford without a degree after deciding that the numbing routines of academic life were not for him. The turning point, he explained, came soon after he realized that his professor never smiled once in two months of lecturing on Aristophanes, one of the greatest comedians of all time.
After leaving Oxford, Garner served as an officer in the Royal Artillery and then turned to writing after reading William Golding's Lord of the Flies in 1954, a work that deeply affected him. Returning to Cheshire,...

Maven's Morning Coffee: Wendy Greuel to release education plan, LA gets transit dollars, a deputy shooting in Lancaster
Photo by superterrific/dana byerly via Flickr Creative Commons
Wendy Greuel will be at a Granada Hills charter school this morning to release her plan for education.
Good morning, readers. Welcome to the Maven's Morning Coffee -- a listing of the important headlines, news conferences, public meetings and announcements you need to know to fuel up and tackle your day.
The Maven's Morning Coffee is also available as a daily email. Click here to subscribe.
Today is Thursday, April 11, and here is what's happening in Los Angeles:
Education is an important issue in the mayor's race and both Eric Garcetti and Wendy Greuel agree that they should debate the issue. What the two can't agree on is when to debate. On Wednesday, Greuel gave Garcetti a two-hour notice to show up for a debate. Garcetti declined, saying they're already working to schedule an education debate in May. KPCC, Los Angeles Times, Daily News.
Meanwhile, the principal of Camino Nuevo Charter Academy, the site of Wendy Greuel's proposed debate, was not pleased to see the school used for negative campaigning, according to the Los Angeles Times. "In retrospect, Greuel might have wanted her staff to do a little better advance work, because Garcetti is well liked at the school — Camino Nuevo Charter Academy — which he helped get a $700,000 grant to help build a new soccer field," reports The Times.
Pro-Garcetti PAC focuses on direct voter contact in LA mayoral election
Mayoral candidate Wendy Greuel rebooted her campaign Tuesday with a speech that defended her support from City Hall unions and attacked her opponent, Eric Garcetti, as someone who "is good at handshakes, but who won't stand by his work or his commitment."
While the Eric Garcetti and Wendy Greuel campaigns have spent millions of dollars in the race for L.A. mayor, independent political action committees are spending millions more. The PAC supporting Eric Garcetti, "Lots of People Who Support Eric Garcetti for Mayor 2013," is focusing its resources on making direct contact with pro-Garcetti voters, particularly Latinos.
The staff of the "Lots of People" PAC includes a lot of veterans of President Obama's re-election campaign. The PAC's campaign director, Mary Jane Stevenson, ran the Obama campaign in California. The PAC is also borrowing a key Obama strategy: It plans to spend nearly $2 million putting paid staffers and volunteers in direct contact with Latinos supportive of Garcetti.
Jan Perry endorses Curren Price for South LA council seat
Jan Perry
L.A. City Councilwoman Jan Perry has endorsed state Sen. Curren Price, who is hoping to be elected to the seat Perry has represented for a dozen years.
State Sen. Curren Price's city council campaign was endorsed Wednesday by Councilwoman Jan Perry, who cited promises of economic development in South Los Angeles as the reason for her support.
Perry is termed out of her Ninth District seat after 12 years in office. Price and Ana Cubas are running to replace her in the May 21st runoff.
"Curren has pledged to right the disparity that has resulted from redistricting and will work to restore the revenue connection between the southern portion of the district and downtown," Perry said in a statement. "This connection will ensure the economic future of our neighborhoods and is an important promise that will help support the people of the Ninth District today and in the future."
During the most recent round of redistricting, the Ninth District was stripped of almost all of its downtown assets. The councilwoman has frequently said downtown developments were crucial to South L.A. because they generated jobs as well as dollars for public housing projects.
CA's High-Speed Rail Authority needs loan to mitigate legal delays
A State Assembly budget committee voted Wednesday to approve a loan for the High-Speed Rail Authority.
The $26.2 million would cover operating costs for the agency that's building California's bullet train while it seeks to resolve legal challenges over its use of voter-approved bonds.
In 2008, Californians approved Proposition 1A, authorizing the state to issue $9 billion in bonds to build a bullet train that speeds riders from Los Angeles to San Francisco in less than three hours.
But critics say the High-Speed Rail Authority's latest plan for the project won't provide that fast of a ride.
"They are claiming that they can still meet the two hours and forty minutes, but they don't have any evidence to show that," said attorney Stu Flashman, who's suing the state on behalf of various cities and environmental groups to stop the project.
Eric Garcetti avoids schoolyard tussle with Wendy Greuel
It had all the hallmarks of a playground throw down: Meet me in two hours and we'll settle this...
On the heels of Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa calling on the two mayoral candidates to step up and communicate their education platforms during his State of the City address Tuesday night, Wendy Greuel stepped up with a challenge to Eric Garcetti.
In a press release emailed at 12:12 p.m. Wednesday, Greuel's campaign invited Garcetti to meet her for a debate at 2:15 at Camino Nuevo Charter High School, where she already had an appearance planned with LAUSD Board President Monica Garcia.
A spokesman for Garcetti declined, saying he would keep his previously scheduled 2 p.m. news conference.
"This is another political stunt from [City] Controller Greuel," said campaign spokesman Jeff Millman, "just like her claim to have found $160 million in waste, fraud and abuse. Let's end the political games and get serious about education."

I see,
when I look at her that
everything is so smooth and
without hindrance
taut, I suppose
whereas when I try
like that
I am crooked and unappealing
there is no equivalent in
my world that can compare
to her
i could never be
appropriately pretty
for you
Well, I finally stated the truth. "idk I'm just tired of it, this drunkness is false happiness." glares up at me as I look about my room. Broke my painting, my sunglasses, wrecked my arm, my liver. Shaking and quivering from too much to drink to the kitchen sink. I think it's time to stop.
Light headed, wandering unknown
through a world that has grown
molded around new hearts
and intuitions.
Floating above an era towards something more
spirits soar, becoming lost in a
In a world so perverse, becoming crystallized forever
Within its own coffin of abstract love these machines
march synchronized. Following a manual preset
to live out tired lives.
Each detail, each texture lit upon a soft petal
is ignored. The eyes of children are no longer innocent.
Who knows more of the world than anyone will know?
Yet determined of self-destruction we kill our pathos
We dissolve into a world unbeknown to its fate.
Then let us perish together at once
And feed upon the greed and hatred of those once noble men.
Let us suckle at the breast of ignorance and fan the flames of madness.
In that must we find solace
And within our own fortress seek our own version of purity.
Submit to the will of what we cannot control
And in the end smile because we are finally
I didn't realize that the moments I shared with you, would have to be tucked neat and pretty into the crevices of my heart. I didn't realize that I would be left to remember for the both of us, or that the friend that I should have been was nowhere to be found. I'm sorry. I know in comparison to others you knew, it doesn't matter. My memories are slim, and fleeting glimpses. But I wanted to know you better, more, I wanted to be a sounding board and instead I let your secrets fall from my mouth like stolen gems. There's no one else here to blame. God, you are so brave, I can barely stand it.
There is a stillness that catches me
In middle of the last hours of Summer
Catching me from the inside
Adrift, in the memory of haunted
Centuries that are no more
I hear low voices in the horizon
Chanting syllables of dust
Nothing moves but Autumn's approach
Time is lethargic and artificial
I can feel the low sky vibrate
Inside my heart, each hour feeling
Larger, more spacious and more fleeting
In an acceleration where memory
Is lost in a whirlwind of sensations
And I promiscuously must harden myself
To survive these faceless moments
I have unlived today's suffering
Until I escaped memory itself
And the idea that I was conquered by
Mortal hours that had no light to return.
I despair for the future of this country
It's been run far too long by such fools
Who have taken away adults power
And given the children no rules
We really need discipline back in schools.
I shudder to think where we're all going to be
If grown ups respect can not gain
The behaviour of children so insane
This country's heading straight down the drain.
Can be
So slippery -
Always ready to start
Little avalanches
Lead to
The corporate sports shop has erased the swim section with snow sports
and I can't find those jagged ear plugs I like there
must go back local to where I got half a wet suit
made by O'Niel, the inventor from my home town
and I remember a friend who was a great skier and even
better ski bum, and he hung out with Tommy Moe in Wyoming and
he almost put his eye out going down a Black Diamond slope stoned
and maybe that's brave, but I don't think so really because true bravery in
my mind is rarely physical, and most commonly, but perhaps rarely mental
as I see the Christmas shoppers like every year doing the same things and dysfunctional
families everywhere pretending to get along when they'd rather kill each other
understanding why, like Freud first tried to show us, in his strange 19th century way
has led to a situation where everyone could understand why, what really drives them
and so few do, because it is scary and expensive and long term and frustrating and you have to go back
over and over and realize you are doing the same damn thing over and over and it's worse than
school when you were a kid, when it was just over and over and a teacher blaring at you until
you finally got it and moved on, because that can really happen. You can get it and move
on and you won't need the salve of the alcohol or the forty big screen TVs or endless ballgames
watched as if they held some kind of key to a special universe and if just one more game, like one more quarter in that slot machine, and what you are really running away from is yourself and your pain.
And I am different, it is true, because that inner journey to understanding is essential to me and
psychology is amazing, how the mind tries to protect us from ourselves by creating more distraction
when we all have that Black Diamond Slope to go down and it is scary and frustrating
and we may fall but in the end we will understand. And that is the most important thing.
Our republic died today;
i wonder who noticed?
Very few, i am certain,
since most were busy trying
to survive in this economy,
or feed their children,
or worried about healthcare (still),
or trying to escape this reality,
but something fundamental is
different now.
The Senate took away the
teeth of the filibuster today.
Simple majority rules now,
no more consensus building.
So? I don't care about politics or politicians.
That is a shame, because they
care about you. In fact,
they are counting on you.
To stay distracted.
To think tyranny is only for distant lands.
To think that today's reform won't be
tomorrow's crushing defeat.
Black America:
What if tomorrow the House of Representatives
passes a law to make you all slaves again?
LGBT Americans:
What if tomorrow the House makes it a law that
all of you be imprisoned for being who you are?
Women Americans:
What if tomorrow the House takes away the
abortion option, or worse?
All of you are outnumbered.
Remember...majority rules now. The Senate won't slow it down.
Be careful who you piss off.
Because debate and careful consideration
are no longer valued in this Democratic
It interferes with their agenda.
Petty tyrants don't just rule in
Third World countries.
Not anymore.
They work on Capitol Hill and live in the White House.
Enjoy the bliss of Obama's promised transformation of America. The Senate was intended by the founders of this nation to be the chamber of the legislature where tempers cooled down, debate slowed down, and the minority party or parties had a fighting chance to withstand annihilation. But over 200 years of precedent was getting in the way of Obama and the Democrats getting their way, regardless of the rule of law. They broke the law, to change the law, so that they can ignore/bypass the law.
Seriously, be careful who you piss off now. If you saw this on the news happening somewhere else in the world, you would say to yourself that that country was now being ruled by a dictator.
But it just happened here, and that is exactly what they are trying to do to us.
So enjoy your hope and change. I will almost certainly end up in a political re-education camp for posting shit like this, but I don't give a fuck. Somebody has to say it.
Good luck.

Public speaker Becky McCrary speaks to a group of people at the Crowne Plaza in Greenville on Tuesday, February 12, 2013. / MYKAL McELDOWNEY/Staff
Becky McCrary of Simpsonville stuttered until she was 31. Her husband, Scott, tells her she hasn't shut up since.
That's a good thing because now McCrary, 57, gets paid to do just that — speak.
After quitting her job as a credit union branch manager in 1996 and becoming self-employed, McCrary rose to become one of 232 women worldwide to earn the prestigious certified speaking professional designation.
Today, she travels throughout the country and the world sharing her "wit and wisdom" on customer service, leadership and "a little inspiration."
The inspiration for many in the audiences comes when McCrary tells how she went from spending half of her life not wanting to speak to speaking for a living.
When David Crigler, vice president and chief operations officer at Prudential C. Dan Joyner Realty Co., first heard it, his response was, "You've got to be kidding me!"
That reaction isn't unusual.
The way she presents herself, Crigler says, makes it very hard to believe. "She's so engaging and gets her point across very well, but in a fun way," he says. "She's hysterical."
Her daughter, Laura Weymouth, says McCrary's infectious laugh and contagious smile come from "a love of life."
McCrary describes herself as joyful. Happiness, she says, is what goes on around you; joy is what goes on inside you. She believes that she's sharing a gift God gave her to share.
"I do believe now that I have a message, and I know I have a calling," she says. A spiritual gifts-assessment she took in her Sunday school class at First Baptist Church of Mauldin revealed that her first gift is teaching. The second is administration.
Teaching others how to give better customer service and how to be part of a better team is something McCrary loves to do, Weymouth says .
"My parents still can't believe anybody pays me to talk," McCrary says. "It's just very odd because they knew me as the very quiet, introverted nose in a book."
But the former banking executive is never happier than when she's speaking. "You can tell. I seldom shut up," she says. "I can talk for 41/2 minutes before I need a breath."
Lost time
For years, when McCrary opened her mouth, words wouldn't come out, she says. That's the kind of disorder she had.
Her son, Troy, started to stutter at age 9. Not wanting him to suffer what she'd endured, she got him into therapy.
The techniques the therapists prescribed for Troy, McCrary also used herself.
"As I worked with him to gain fluency, I began to gain fluency," she says. "I began to develop techniques to control the rhythm of my speech so that when I opened my mouth, something would come out."
What comes out in her presentations are stories about growing up with four sisters on a small farm in Sumter County.
She grew up breaking corn the week of Thanksgiving, because that's what the pigs were going to eat all winter. She even milked a cow a few times. That stopped when her dad realized it wasn't her gift, she says.
McCrary also talks about her parents, and how her mother instilled the importance of partnership among the girls.
"You're not going to be as fast as the parents are or the older cousin, but you do what you can. You don't just quit. I think that's a lesson that has really stuck with me all my life — doing the best I can and not comparing myself with others," McCrary says.
Her daughter says McCrary's outlook has always been "God first, the church, family and very little selfishness."
"I've had her for 34 years so I've learned a lot," Weymouth says. "One of the big things is that I can do anything."
Recovering wallflower
McCrary says she was the only one among her sisters to inherit her grandfather's "Viking red" hair. She was also the only one with a stutter.
She was teased at school, especially in elementary. Her release was in the library.
"I remember in the fifth grade, when they would march us all to the library in school and everybody could check out one book, I always got to check out two because they knew — the librarian knew, the teachers knew — how much I read," she says.
Her sense of humor also developed early as a result of her stuttering. She says it was easier to think of a comeback rather than add to a conversation.
"I was listening to what other people said and I could throw them a line, so to speak," she says.
When she turned 30, she realized "Daddy was right. I was a smart mouth, and there was a difference," she says. So, her sense of humor today comes from "just seeing where people are and loving them."
By the time McCrary reached high school, she was surrounded by cousins, sisters and members of her church who also went to her school. She didn't venture outside of that group.
"Sometimes people who love you do it to protect you, but when you're in that shell, you're cut off," she says. "There's no opportunity for personal growth when you're alone."
As a wallflower, McCrary preferred standing alone and observing, not interacting.
"I'm in recovery now, so I make myself go out and speak to people," she says. "But as a child, no. There was never any hope that I could do anything more than, you know, 'That will be $14.83. Thank you.'"
Beyond Sumter
McCrary was a cashier at a dime store when she was 17. She didn't look for life beyond Sumter and work at a local store.
"I thought Sumter would be all that there ever was," she says.
McCrary got married and moved to Columbia after graduation. While there, she worked at Richland Memorial Hospital discharging patients.
Her first marriage lasted just a year. She later took a job in finance and accounting at Fort Jackson, where she met her second husband.
Her son, Troy, was born at Fort Jackson. Her second child, Laura, was born in Heidelberg, Germany. When the family moved back to the States, they lived in Atlanta, where McCrary got a job as a bank teller.
From there, she worked her way up, holding positions such as new accounts rep, consumer loan officer, mortgage loan officer, call center manager and business development manager.
Eventually, she and her second husband divorced. She met Scott, to whom she has been married for 21 years, while working as a call center manager. He was a technician there.
When his job moved them from Sumter to Greenville, McCrary says she walked right into a position as a branch manager at a new credit union here.
'Scared to death'
After 20 years in banking, McCrary realized it was not going to be her lifelong calling.
In a five-year planning meeting one day, one of her colleagues asked her, "'Where do you see yourself in all of this?'
"I said, 'I don't,'" McCrary recalls. She then walked back to her office, called her husband and told him he'd never believe what had just happened.
He didn't ask what, McCrary remembers. He simply said, "You know that our house in Sumter has not sold, and we're paying mortgage and rent."
She said, "I know."
He gently reminded her that Troy was a freshman at USC, Laura was a junior in high school and she had purchased a new car just three months earlier.
He said, "What are you going to do?"
She said, "I don't know."
McCrary says she was miserable. She later asked Scott what she could do well that other people needed, and the first thing out of his mouth, she says, was telephone skills.
He had observed her in the call center, training her staff.
"I quit my job, having never given a speech in my entire life and said, 'I'm going to be a professional speaker,'" McCrary says.
The day she left that credit union job was April 5, 1996, another lifetime, as she puts it.
"It was closing a door and opening another one. I was scared to death," she says.
While she knew what she was going to do, she didn't have a client, a contract or a event a topic.
A proposition
To get started, McCrary sold some stock she owned and bought a computer, overhead projector, an eight-foot screen and a joke book.
"I knew intuitively that people wanted to laugh, but I didn't think I was funny. So I bought this joke book and I read it. I never used one of them because they weren't me," she says. "They weren't appropriate for the topics. I just started telling my stories and for some reason, the more pain I had, the more somebody else laughed."
Her first topic was telephone etiquette, and she thought telephone companies might benefit from her message.
She called three she found in the Yellow Pages and asked them to allow her to speak to their staff and technicians for 45 minutes in exchange for $200 and 20 referrals. All three said "yes."
Within the next 30 days, she'd done three presentations, received three letters of recommendation and 60 referrals, and $600, which she used to get business cards printed and to buy membership to the chamber.
"It's strange, when I began speaking it wasn't about me, it was about the techniques that I have learned working in a call center, how we took service complaints from an average of 60 a month to an average of one a quarter," McCrary says.
"It was really about that success, telling the stories of when it worked and when it didn't and what I learned from that," she says.
As her comfort zone grew, McCrary began to give the audiences more. "As I told stories about my childhood, people would line up to talk to me afterward and say, 'My older sister told me I was adopted, too. It resonated," she says. "Their comments gave me the courage to share more about what I do."
McCrary still isn't afraid to make cold calls. She also networks. A lot of requests come from referrals and repeat clients.
Teresa Shuler, a local Business Network International chapter director, heard McCrary speak at the chamber a few years ago and invited her to speak during one of their lunch meetings in Greenville.
Shuler says along with the knowledge and expertise McCrary shares, she has an energy, a sense of enthusiasm and transparency that sets her apart.
McCrary has worked with Charles Scales, CEO of Greenville Office Supply since 1998. Scales describes her as "the most upbeat person I ever met."
"She brings a lot of knowledge in her field, in her customer service skills training," he says. "But she relays in a way that's fun and very professional," he says.
Starting over
Among the early challenges, McCrary says, was that the family moved often. Each move was like starting over.
At one point, things were especially difficult financially.
McCrary's husband would kiss her goodbye each morning and, as he left for work, he'd say "make lots of money."
"The first 45 times he said it, it was cute. By the 46th time it wasn't, and I would sit there and I would read through all of this 'how you do it,' 'this is what works,' but I couldn't pick up the phone," she says.
When she would, it would be to make sure there was a dial tone because she expected somebody to call her.
"We've always been a two-income family, and I was not producing what I needed to contribute to our family," she says. So, McCrary went to Godshall Staffing and was booked part time as a receptionist.
She worked part time for $8 an hour, less than what she could make speaking, but she gained time to practice what she preached.
"I used the word choices that I taught others. I really focused on my tone," she says. "I heard from the managers that they had never heard anybody come in and do what I did, that they loved how I talked to their customers, that their customers were bragging on the switchboard operator. I realized if I can do this, I can teach this."
McCrary later applied for and was offered a job as a business development manager.
Before she said yes, she negotiated for five weeks vacation the time off she needed to continue her speaking engagements.
She juggled the two jobs for four years and officially became a full-time speaker according to the standards of the National Speakers Association — a minimum of 20 paid speeches a year.
And 18 months into her business development job, she was recognized nationally as the company's "Business Development Professional of the Year."
"I didn't give up. I worked two jobs to be able to do what I knew I was supposed to do and still be able to contribute financially to our family, to our home," she says.
Making the grade
In 2009, McCrary completed NSA's five-year process of becoming a certified speaking professional. The organization has 580 certified speaking professionals worldwide, 437 nationwide and six in South Carolina, according to Stacey Magneson, spokeswoman for the organization.
McCrary flew her parents and her husband to Arizona to witness the certification award ceremony.
Her father, at the time, had been struggling with kidney failure.
"So for my daddy to be there when we had come so close to losing him was so special for me," McCrary says. "I know that my daddy was proud of me that day."
McCrary says she's often asked if she'll retire. She may, but she'll never stop laughing.
"I spent 20 years in banking. They almost beat the sense of humor out of me," she says. "So, if you meet Becky and she's not laughing, you'll know the aliens have come and snatched her."
Then, she laughed.

Taylor Swift Named EW Entertainer of the Yearby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Talk about an impressive feat: Taylor Swift has been named Entertainer of the Year... for the second consecutive time!
Following the Associated Press honoring the singer with this distinction in 2009, Entertainment Weekly has done the same for 2010.
What has Taylor done to earn this title from EW? Only begin the year with a number-two single debut ("Today Was a Fairytale"), a hit movie (Valentine's Day), and a quartet Grammy wins, including Album of the Year.
She also headlined a series of arena concerts and sold over one million copies of the album "Speak Now."Swift also created a stir for supposedly penning songs about ex-boyfriends such as Taylor Lautner, Joe Jonas, and John Mayer. Her response to that talk?
"Sometimes I would laugh because I would see it in print and it would say, 'This song, which is written about her ex, so-and-so…' And they would write about it as if it was fact. The fact is, I haven't ever confirmed that any song is about any particular person."
Among other Entertainers of the Year, as shown on various covers below? Rico Rodriguez, Jane Lynch and Jon Hamm.
i can't believ they said shes a good enterer to me she's not she can't sing live and she goes guy to guy to just make a hit songs and write about her life
I think Taylor has done a lot this past year, and I do think her voice is a little better, but she is by far not the best entertainer by any means. She is a good PR person and knows how to go around the world selling her records etc.
I LOVE TAYLOR SWIFT!Go girl!
taylor swift is the most worst entertainer in the worid
@dtmason i agree with you she can't even she in live britney spears is better taylor wift said that she is not in trainwreck in the intoviews just watch one day hit will hit her just like britney at least britney is better now go britney
Is America deaf, this girl is not all that, is because she has blue eyes and blond hair and meets the next door girl image, this industry is soooo full of s--t, There are millions of young women just as talented or more than she is, the public has learned to eat whatever thy are shoveled. She can not SING!!!!!
Taylor SWIFT. PHONETICALLY, now...What does this name say to you?
I think the awards are stuck in first gear,,and need some adjustments,,no way is this award valid,,why on earth would you ignore the talents of someone like Adam Lambert? Just because he has been touring for over 100 days to sold out houses,,does that mean heis not in the running?? Get real and recognize real talent,,
WTG Taylor! I agree that she doesn't have the BEST voice out there today, but she's one talented young lady who seems to remain true to herself and doesn't fall into the "drugs" and "alcohol" trap that so many other young entertainers do. I applaud her and wish her continued success. She's truly a talented songwriter, too!
I think she is adorable and I say - Good for her!!! She's so young and still honing her talent, but to all you haters, I say put your jealousy on hold and just be happy for her. I promise all your rants and hate-filled messages have her laughing all the way to the bank!!! Good for young lady -

Ultimate Romance?
If you feel romantic yourself (or would like to) try this poetry competition. The prize for the best is an 'ultimate romantic weekend' in a Marriott hotel. Don't know about you, but ultimate romance sounds slightly scary to me.

Its the regular appearance on Kudlow tonite: We will be discussing unlikely potential Fed Cuts (a Bullish mantra for some time now); today's Market Reversal, Home Builders and Inflation, from 5:00 til about 5:30 or so.
Its a pretty stellar line up: In addition to your humble narrator, the guests include David Malpass, Gary Shilling and Jim Awad.
What can we discuss?
• The Technical Reversal on pretty big Volume — Dow up 70 to down 90 (as of this writing);
NYSE 3.1 Billion shares
Nasdaq 2.3 Billion shares
Qs did 200 million — the most since Feb 28th (300m)
• Prices plummet, New Home Sales Surge (but double digit monthly gains are usuaally reversed);
• Overstated Job Market Strength;
• Tech Weakness and the ongoing rotation into Defensive names (Utilities, Consumer Staples, Insurance, Pharma, Telco);
• Cult of personality: Why does anyone still pay attention to former Fed Chair Greenspan? His influence of Fed policy is now zero; he was a particularly awful forecastor. So why do people STILL hang on his every word?
UPDATE March 24, 2007 10:31pm
I meet Jim Awad in the green room (nice guy), but I am unable to strike up a conversation — because Kenry Kissinger is in the room.
While Henry the K is on air, I hang around shmoozing with his entouarage, chatting about music. Turns out Henry is okay with photos, so one of his bodyguards uses my phone camera to grab a snap.
Turns out that, yes, you can get around the secret service muscle — if you were just on the CNBC . . .

Quote of the Day: In Defense of Idleness
Like most of my generation, I was brought up on the saying "Satan finds some mischief still for idle hands to do." Being a highly virtuous child, I believed all that I was told and acquired a conscience which has kept me working hard down to the present moment. But although my conscience has controlled my actions, my opinions have undergone a revolution. I think that there is far too much work done in the world, that immense harm is caused by the belief that work is virtuous, and that what needs to be preached in modern industrial countries is quite different from what always has been preached … I hope that after reading the following pages the leaders of the Y. M. C. A. will start a campaign to induce good young men to do nothing. If so, I shall not have lived in vain.
