Legislative Update
October 20, 2014
In this update:
On Capitol Hill: McConnell Seeks Clean Slate for 2015
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Kentucky) wants to get all must-pass legislation completed in the lame-duck session so Senate Republicans will have a clean slate at the start of 2015 if they control the upper chamber.
According to Senate GOP aides, McConnell would prefer to pass an omnibus spending bill or a year-long stopgap funding measure that would keep the federal government operating until the end of the fiscal year on September 30.
Included could be a package extending a variety of expired tax provisions. Some House Republicans would like to delay action on the so-called tax extenders package to 2015 and others are seeking to extend some expired provisions indefinitely, like the credit for business research. Aides say the Senate GOP is open to that approach, but want to finish off an extenders package before 2015.
The biggest question is what to do about legislation funding the government. Republicans are divided over whether it should keep federal departments and agencies operating through the end of the calendar year or only until the late winter or early spring. A short-term funding stopgap would give the expected Senate Republican majority a chance to reshape spending priorities mid-year, something GOP lawmakers demanded after their party captured the House in the 2010 midterm election.
New Rule to Strengthen the Clery Act
The Obama Administration has announced the publication of the final rule implementing changes made to the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act) by the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 (VAWA). That law and the new rule strengthen the Clery Act to more effectively address, and ultimately reduce, sexual violence on college campuses, including, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking.
The Clery Act requires institutions of higher education to comply with certain campus safety- and security-related requirements as a condition of participating in the Federal student financial aid programs authorized by Title IV of the Higher Education Act. Under the Clery Act, an institution is required to disclose crime incidents that occur in one of three geographic categories: on campus, on public property within or adjacent to the campus, or in noncampus buildings or property owned or operated by the school.
The final rule requires an institution to record incidents of stalking based on the location where either the perpetrator engaged in the stalking or the victim first became aware of the stalking.

Warner and Gillespie Final Debate
Senator Mark Warner (Virginia) and Republican challenger Ed Gillespie faced off for the "People's Debate" in Richmond on Monday, October 13. The event was organized by the League of Women Voters and AARP and broadcast on TV stations across Virginia. Bill Fitzgerald, anchor for WTVR CBS-6, served as the moderator. Warner and Gillespie discussed ethics, taxes, social programs and Ebola. This was the pair's third and final campaign debate.
McAuliffe Unveils Cost-Cutting Measures
Governor Terry McAuliffe has unveiled cost-cutting measures in response to a projected budget shortfall. The steps are intended to partially address a previously announced multi-year deficit of $2.4 billion. In addition to job losses concentrated in the state prison system, the state will mark up the price of liquor, sell an old state police airplane and wait longer than usual to fill some jobs. Those actions will take effect immediately.
The administration also plans to cut $100 million next year as well as $150 million over two years from higher education and funding for local governments. On December 17, McAuliffe will reveal a new budget projection and plan for how to save $536 million in fiscal 2016.

Support Costs & Staffing at Virginia's Higher Education Institutions
Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission (JLARC) has released a draft report entitled, "Support Costs & Staffing at Virginia's Higher Education Institutions." Directed by the General Assembly, JLARC is currently studying the cost efficiency of the state's institutions of higher education to identify opportunities to reduce costs. Interest in this topic was spurred by increases in tuition and fees in recent years and the debt load of Virginia students. The report, which is the fourth in JLARC's higher education series, focuses on support functions, including information technology and procurement (HJR 108, 2012).
To view a copy of the report, visit http://jlarc.virginia.gov/reports/Rpt460.pdf.
Children's Services: CHIP Sign-on Letter
Children's Hospital of Richmond at VCU and VCU Health System, have signed onto a letter with more than 1,400 organizations asking Congressional leaders to take action in the upcoming lame duck session to provide continued funding for the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). The letter, generated by First Focus, urges Members to include a four-year CHIP funding extension in the next legislative vehicle that is moving at the end of this session. Congress must act this year to stabilize the CHIP funding stream to ensure that states can continue to operate their programs without interruption. The letter will be sent to Senators Reid, McConnell, Hatch, Wyden; and Representatives Boehner, Pelosi, Upton, and Waxman.

In 2004, Lindsey Wolko was traveling with her dog, Maggie, who was in a harness in the back seat, when she had to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident. The tether of the harness turned out to be too long to keep Maggie secure on the seat. So when Wolko hit the brakes, Maggie went flying and hit the back of the front seat. She was injured and terrified but fortunately survived.
"As a pet owner, I thought I was doing everything right," Wolko told Vetstreet. "From that moment forward, I started to look at these products and say, 'So that injured my dog.'"
Fast-forward to 2013, and years of sampling and testing pet safety products have finally paid off. Wolko, who founded the nonprofit Center for Pet Safety in 2011, embarked on a landmark study on pet harness safety, which was sponsored by Subaru. Last week, CPS released the results. Out of the 11 harness brands tested, only one — the Sleepypod Clickit Utility harness — passed crash safety testing.
Through its 2013 Harness Crashworthiness Study, CPS hoped to not only identify the top-performing harness brands for consumers but also create a standard protocol for manufacturers. Unlike human car safety restraints, there is no government oversight or safety standard for pet harnesses.
To determine which harness brands were the safest, the Center for Pet Safety sampled 11 pet harnesses that claimed "testing," "crash testing" or "crash protection."
Although there are no sizing standards for pet safety harnesses, most of the manufacturers' harnesses are available in sizes small, medium and large. CPS created crash test dummy dogs to represent a typical small (25-pound) dog, medium (45-pound) dog and large (75-pound) dog.
Before each harness brand could go through crash testing, it had to pass a preliminary test in which a harness secured on a static, standard-size crash test dog had to maintain structural integrity while being pulled by a machine that puts force on the harness for a five-second hold period. If the harness broke or allowed the dog to become a projectile, it failed and did not go onto crash testing.
Of the 11 brands in the study, seven passed preliminary testing, and four failed.

text: I have an idea...this is kinda RPG like, but I think you'll like this idea... We each pick a planet (listed below), a leader (probably the person who picks the planet) and a senator to represent theirselves in the senate (once again, most likly the person who picks the planet)...all planets have some kinda bonus(listed below)... Now, I guess you're wondering, 'What do we do'...every once in awhile, the senate (us) meets...we discuss matters in the FF, the Star Wars Galaxy and whatever If you get particulary ticked off at someone, you may attack their planet, but be carful, cause if the senate meets and decides how to handle the situation, you might be attacked by the Republic...you can also succeed from the Republic, you will not be able to attend the regular senate meetings ,unless you are invited, and the Republic will not assist you if you fall under attack. To decide who wins the attack, each planet will get a initial attack number (i.e. 3)..when that planet attacks another(or vica versa) the outcome will be determined by that attack number...you can increse that attack number by building up your forces, which you must get the senate's approval to do...building up your forces will cost resources, each planet will have a final resource points (i.e. 30) you can increase your attack points by 1 for every resource point you have..(I know..this is getting complicated )...you can also ask for resource points from the senate, how many you get will be decided then and there...If you attack a planet(or get attack), and lose, you must subtract your attack points the number of attack point from the attacking (or attacked) planet...the diffrence you come out with we be your remaining forces...if it's 0 or lower, your planet is destroyed and you must find a new one. Any other planets that are not listed below may be added by request...only real planets...from real SW sources (games, books, movies) Endor: Owner: ??? Leader: ??? Senator: ??? Bonus: 5 Ewok bodyguards Initial Attack points: 4 Resource points:30 Bespin: Owner: ??? Administrator (leader): ??? Senator: ??? Initial Attack points: 11 Resource points: 27 Bonus: 30 Tabania(sp?)

2005 Kia Sedona • 100 miles
Severe vibration upon accelerating. First tonight was out of alignment, second was tires. Now have no clue. Check engine light has come on then gone back off again a few times. Not sure what the problem is. Any help you can lend around be ever so appreciated
March 1, 2013.
March 1, 2013.
An alignment problem won't cause a vibration. When tire belts have been ruled out, and since it occurs when accelerating, a likely suspect is a worn inner cv joint housing. That will mostly be felt in the steering wheel, and it will go away when cruising or coasting. Often the problem shows up right after anything is done with the engine mounts that moves the engine a little to one side from where it was. That makes the rollers in the inner cv joints roll back and forth in a different spot so they go in and out of the worn areas. Those worn parts cause the rollers to bind and not roll smoothly under load. Since the joint can't change length freely with each rotation, the shaft pushes back and forth on the spindle, and that gets transferred to the steering linkage and steering wheel.

AUGUSTA, Maine — Republican gains in the Maine Statehouse will give Gov. Paul LePage a stronger hand as he pushes a second-term agenda that will likely include further changes to welfare programs and another attempt to pass right-to-work legislation.
Maine Republicans on Wednesday were celebrating not only a victory over Democrat Mike Michaud in the hotly contested three-way race for governor, but a likely majority in the state Senate and the first GOP congressman in the 2nd Congressional District in two decades.
"It was a really good day for Republicans in Maine," said Assistant Senate Republican Leader Roger Katz of Augusta.
The party benefited in part from conservatives turning out in large numbers in rural areas to oppose a ballot question that sought to ban the use of dogs, traps and bait hunt bears, observers said.
Yet, Republicans contend that they were successful because they offered voters a change from years of Democratic policies they argue have hampered Maine's economic recovery.
Residents are "simply tired of not having jobs," said Bruce Poliquin, who defeated Democrat Emily Cain, becoming the first Republican to represent Maine's vast 2nd Congressional District since moderate Olympia Snowe.
Republicans came out on top in midterm races across the country Tuesday, taking control of the U.S. Senate and winning governor's contests in traditionally liberal-leaning states like Illinois and Massachusetts.
Cain, who conceded to Poliquin early Wednesday, said the country saw a "national wave of frustration with a Congress that has refused to come to the table to solve problems."
"People have a right to be upset," Cain said in a statement. "I hope that Washington listens to the message that was sent and puts aside partisanship and politics and starts putting people first."
Legislative leaders said unofficial results show that Republicans have gained five seats in the state Senate to wrest control away from Democrats and added 10 seats in the 151-member Democratic-controlled state House. Recounts are expected in some races, so the results could change.
Katz said Republicans hope to use their gains to make strides in cutting government spending, lowering taxes for working people and eliminating unnecessary red tape.
A Republican majority in the Senate will be a big boost for LePage, who saw many of his proposed policies get killed by Democrats, who swept back into the majority in both chambers in 2012.
LePage has expressed interest in making another push to make Maine a right-to-work state, meaning that union members wouldn't be required to pay dues or fees. His administration also has said that it wants to enact more changes to welfare, like requiring more of recipients to be tested for drugs.
"It's not like (LePage) is going to be able to just completely push exactly the agenda he wants in the Legislature," said Ron Schmidt, a professor at the University of Southern Maine. "But his hand is definitely stronger than it was before."
Democrats did see some wins Tuesday.
In addition to remaining in control of the state House, the party was victorious in the in the 1st Congressional District, where Chellie Pingree easily defeated Republican challenger Isaac Misiuk and independent Richard Murphy.
But Republicans said that they're now focused on maintaining a "long-term, sustainable majority in Maine" and expressed confidence that their successes this year will be repeated.
"We built an apparatus of winning elections that will go beyond this cycle," said David Sorensen, a spokesman for the Maine Republican Party.

Before You Decide to Divorce, Ask Yourself...
by attorney Howard M Lewis
People come to the question of divorce by many routes. Whatever the reason—anger, frustration, boredom, even infidelity—you owe it to yourself and... more
My ex husband and I was considered prose up in till today when he showed up to a hearing with an attorney that he used for our divorce. I filed a complaint with the FL bar against the attorney because of something he did wrong. The attorney is also the boss of my ex husband's wife's mother. So every time we have a hearing or mediation the mother in law feels that she has the right to be present at everything just because she is the secretary of the attorney. My ex-husbands wife filed false police reports against me for battery in which the case was thrown out at trial by the judge. Now her mom gets to be present during everything just because she is the secretary? I have never seen an attorney bring along his secretary to mediation and to hearings. Is she allowed to be there?
From your description of the facts, there is no conflict of interest. It would be a conflict of interest here if, for example, he had represented you in the divorce and now, in a different proceeding, he represented your ex-husband.
Also, from what you say, the hearings you are a part of are in open court. Thus, anyone has a right to attend, so your ex-mother in law is well within her rights to be present.
Hopefully you have a good attorney on your side for these proceedings.
Felipe Fulgencio, Esq.
(813) 760-0269
I agree with the above answer, that from the facts you provided, it is not a conflict of interest. The court is open to the public, but I am not sure what kind of mediation(s) you have been having or how many. I think if you were uncomfortable with that, you could have asked the mediator the the attorney to have her leave. A mediation is not a public hearing.
Divorce is the process of formally ending a marriage. Divorces may be jointly agreed upon, resolved by negotiation, or decided in court.

Chopped salads are all the rage these days, and it's easy to see why. Any combination of vegetables, cooked meats, cheeses, nuts, or fruits can be tossed with shredded romaine or iceberg lettuce (or cabbage), making these kinds of salads one of the most creative and versatile of concoctions. Here we've borrowed from the classic Greek mixture of tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, and feta cheese. For best results, use a sturdy rather than a soft leaf lettuce, and cut all the vegetables roughly the same size. We like this salad paired with our Herbed Cucumber Vinaigrette.
Just before you plan to serve the salad, place the lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumber in a large bowl and toss to combine. Add the feta cheese, olives, capers, and oregano, and toss again. Add the Herbed Cucumber Vinaigrette and toss to lightly coat the salad. Season the salad with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.

Audello Review – I'm NOT a Fan.
I mentioned before that there would be services that would come into being in 2014 deigned for podcasters. Audello (from Internet Marketer Josh Bratlin) is the latest. It ventured on to the scene with claims that were so outrageous (you can make X amount of money in very little time) that people like John Lee Dumas went "woah". As a podcast consultant I try to base all my opinions on facts, so last night with hours to go before their early bird special ran out I bought the software.
Today here is what I discovered.
1. Their software for the desktop won't event run (I'll put that in another video, I forgot to show it here). I teach technology for a living, so I don't believe it is user error. I've installed software before.
2. The RSS that the system generates for you to give to iTunes is invalid (per feedvalidator.org). The feed will allow you to manually subscribe via iTunes, but I would not recommend submitting an invalid feed to itunes.
3. One of the "features" is the ability to schedule episodes in advance. This can easily be done in WordPress.
4. The pages the service creates are butt ugly, and they contain a playlist very similar to one you can create in WordPress
5. The sound bar is a unique feature that as bat that floats above your website. It also has the ability to have people click and leave audio replies. This is very similar to Speakpipe.com ($7 a month).
6. When I imported one of my old shows as a test, many of the details were not imported.
7. One feature is a smartphone app that allows you to record your show. To this I say, see auphonic (free) and boss jock studio. With Boss Jock studio you can record your episode, and upload it directly to Libsyn and have that episode make a post on your website. That's right, you record with your phone, and it ends up on your website. No computer needed (just the patience to type on your phone or tablet).
One feature that I saw that was different was the ability to put four audio files (basically commercials) and have it rotate the files and track which file worked the best (split-testing). This is for sales. The system really seemed designed with a heavy influence on selling items in your podcast. As the person who authored the book "More Podcast Money" I'm not against making money through your podcast. I just don't know too many people who would tune into a commercial.
When I bought this on Sunday night (I said Saturday in the video) it said I had less than one day to buy the software. Tonight (Monday) it says there are three days to get the discount. That's just a lie.
You don't take your car to the dentist to have it repaired. You shouldn't let an Internet Marketer try to teach you the ins and outs of podcasting. The reason the price is so expensive? Because his affiliate program at Clickbank is paying 50% of your money to people who promote it. How do I know this? Because I originally signed up to promote this. I used Josh Bartlet's video tools in the past. He generates a lot of buzz and I thought if the product was good I could promote it. With this in mind, if you want to waste your cash, please use my affiliate link

Potential NMX Speakers – Here is Your Target
I've been asked since taking the position of Director of the Podcasting Track for the New Media Expo, what I'm looking for in a speaker submission. It may be easier to define what I'm not looking for. Poor presentations are like spoiled milk, it doesn't take long to identify something is wrong. The packaging seems fine, the milk may (or may not) have a bad oder, but when the lumps came out of the milk bottle you know that the milk is bad.
The Do's and Don'ts of Presenting
Define Your Audience
You know I was going to start here. It always starts with your target audience. We have people who have never recorded a podcast, and we have those who are approaching 10 years of podcasting. Your presentation very rarely will appeal to both sides of that fence. I would prefer a deeper dive on few subjects (with plenty of take always) then to go shallow on a larger number of topics.
If you show up talking about starting a streaming radio station with your podcast, it is somewhat related but most of us love the joy of time shifted content (which a streaming station is not). I don't think that would be a perfect fit like other topics.
Winging It
For the record I've been to a number of different events (some speaking, some not). I see a lot of "Winging it" (especially with panels). In the case of panels it is like those group project in schools where everyone assumes the other people are going to do the work (and then nobody does). When I was on a panel with Daniel J. Lewis and Ray Ortega we met a number of times to first organize our content, and then determine who would deliver what. We timed ourselves so we had an idea if we had enough (or too much) content.
When a submission is accepted, you and I will become friends. I'm going to be working with you to ensure that you deliver the best presentation. I'm not telling you what to present, what to say, or even how to say it, but I may help you shape your focus.
Same Old Song and Dance
I've been to almost all of the New Media Expos. People are spending their money to attend. If you spoke last year, don't submit the same presentation that you presented before.
Remember You're Talking to Adults
This is where my background as a teacher will come in handy. It's not enough to say the Audio Technica 2100 is a great podcasting microphone. Adults need to know why. You tell a child that 2+2=4 and they say, "OK." You say that to an adult and they will start asking questions. The Audio Technica 2100 microphone is a great podcasting microphone because it picks up less room noise than other microphones and it also works as a USB microphone and can be used with a mixer. That is an example of remembering the why.
Back It Up
I can tell you that, "Most podcasters don't make it past episode 7." This (for the most part) is true. However, if I'm saying this in a presentation I'm going to give my source (Todd Cochrane of the blubrry.com). Why? Trust me. Your audience is going to question anything that makes them go, "Really?" I once saw a speaker misquote a stat about podcast listeners and the hallway was buzzing before their speech was over.
If you're talking about your own experience, then feel free to share. If you live what you're talking about, it helps.
Nothing brings value like "behind the scenes" information that you can't get any place else. That makes your audience say, "I'm glad I was there to catch that presentation" (because they can't get that information any place else).
Be Prepared
If you are creating your slides minutes before starting your presentation, you surely haven't spent time practicing this at home. If you're editing (i.e. the perfectionist) that is understandable. Be careful with endless tweaking. By adding, "One more point" you may not leave any time for questions.
Different Levels of Detail
When it comes to different levels of content beginning topics are easy to spot. When it comes to intermediate vs. advanced it gets a little stickier. Here is a way to look at things:
Definition (basic): Twitter is a social media tool
What (intermediate): Twitter is a way to interact with your audience and keep up to date with what is happening.
How: Create a hashtag for your podcast to use so it's easy to find their tweets while promoting your show. Here is how I follow my hashtag, and here what I've learned.
At The End of This Presentation the Audience….
One thing I'm really looking to see is if your presentation will have a "take-away." I'm actually looking for multiple actions for the audience to take away from the conference. These are specific action items, tools, insights, and information. We all love it when we walk out of a presentation with action items on our mind and inspired to move ahead. Make sure you have your audience saying, "I can't wait. When I get home, I'm going to _____." I realize in some cases your presentation will be focused to inspire. How did you get to a position to inspire?
One of the Best Presentations I've Seen
One of the best presentations I've seen was from Tim Paige from lead pages. Tim didn't do a giant sales job on lead pages (because nobody flew across the country to watch a commercial). He said he used to do a daily show. Then he decided to change his schedule. He explained the stats of his show and how they originally dipped and then they came back up. He explained by not doing so many episodes he had more time to create better content. He then explained a strategy of building an email list. It was specific (using videos delivered every three days). He had stats from lead pages to show why it was three days. Yes, he mentioned lead pages. He didn't ask for a sale, he simply explained that they organize all the stats from all of their users to determine the most popular forms and strategies. It seamlessly blended in with his presentation and backed up everything he said.
When I left that presentation I had action items. I didn't have idea. I had step one, step two, etc. all mapped out in my head. I was excited, and I felt I had received information that I couldn't get any place else.
When I think about this presentation it had:
1. Energy. Tim was busting at the seams to talk about this subject.
2. Great Content. He knew his audience, and presented a strategy to help them grow their audience.
3. He Backed it Up. He used graphs to show his data, and explained in plain English what it meant.
4. The Why. Tim often explained why they continued to do something (publishing less frequently left more time for content creation).
5. A Take Away – I had a strategy, with specific steps, I could try when I got home.
What is My Target as the Director of Podcasting?
My target is to have the best content provided by the best presenters with the best insights.
The Best Book I've Read on Presentations
One of the best books I've read on presentations is Secrets of Dynamic Communications: Prepare with Focus, Deliver with Clarity, Speak with Power. It's a great book, and walking through the book will help you focus on your content and help you bring out the best points.
Ready To Submit A Presentation?
The deadline for speakers is 10/24. Submit your session today. That is a HARD deadline.

Pulphead: Essays, by John Jeremiah Sullivan
Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Maybe we're biased (Sullivan is a longtime GQ correspondent), or maybe we have excellent taste in writers. These essays—half critic-at-large, half southern gonzo—have enviable range, from Christian rock in the Ozarks to Real World alumni in North Carolina, all of it filtered through Sullivan's sparky prose and expert nose for stories.
Sullivan's Pick: Mark Richard's House of Prayer No. 2 (Nan A. Talese/Doubleday): "His childhood was weird, and not in a quirky 'You should write a book!' way. He spent a part of it in charity children's hospitals recuperating from ghastly operations. I used to admire him for fighting the urge to write a memoir. Now that he's done it, and it's unforgettable, I admire him more."

Google's Head Of Search: Google Does Not Give Brands A Bias
Google's head of search, head engineer, and Google fellow, Amit Singhal told Fast Company in an interview that Google Instant does not have a brand bias. Google Instant, the search predictions that Google gives searchers as they type a query, is not influenced by any brand bias, Singhal said. He said, "we didn't want to introduce any bias into the mathematical modeling–our modeling is predicting, given a letter, what's the probability of completion."
This is in response to ComScore search evangelist Eli Goodman sharing data at a recent search summit event that suggested Google Instant results are 15% more likely to have ads because more of the results are brand terms.
