USF Gears Up to Give Back for the Holidays
Thanksgiving is around the corner, and Dons everywhere have geared up to give back to those who are less fortunate by distributing food to families, volunteering, and organizing donation drives.
Montray Clemons '16 is still smiling about what happened weeks ago when the Dons forward led basketball drills for a group of typical- and special-needs kids at USF's War Memorial Gymnasium. Every few minutes one of the kids would light up like an incandescent bulb, their eyes beaming because they'd just learned to dribble between their legs or shoot a basket.
Entrepreneur Justin Ohanessian's recipe for launching a successful business calls for two things: a simple idea and abundant determination.
The USF community joined St. Ignatius Church parishioners and San Francisco residents on Nov. 16 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the killing of five Jesuit priests in El Salvador. The priests were murdered in a violent raid at their residence in 1989, for standing in solidarity with the Salvadoran people and opposing the country's military dictatorship.
English Prof. Dean Rader's book of poems about the "99 percent" climbs to No. 1, and Associate Prof. of Teacher Education Helen Maniates is named nonprofit educational partner of the year. Read more recent faculty achievements ...

Gaming's Whacked-Out Week- February 1« Back to Story
Our friends in the Orient boast an unerring commitment to all things trouser-troubling. Where else but the Land of the Rising Wiener would you encounter Ajo and her nigh-obsessive cosplay penchant? This lustable lady, Kotaku reports, weighed over 154 pounds a decade ago, and her first foray into costume-itude wasn't to her liking. She lamented, "In the pictures, my favorite characters had turned all fat... the look of the character collapsed completely." Who the hell wants the look of their favorite characters to 'collapse,' sagging revoltingly like undercooked baked goods or the ancient boobs of a pensioner in lingerie? No bastard, that's who. The whole sorry affair galvanized a ten-year diet regime, so as to enable Ajo to ape the idealized form of the gaming icons she reveres. We've been admiring the fruits of her labor for several hours -with no pants on. As well as a sign on the office door that reads, 'Do Not Disturb. Largely Because I'm Having a Wank. Do I Want My Dick on the Internet (Again)? I Don't.' - and we'd say she has attained her goal.

Sept. 29 (Bloomberg) -- Almost half of tuberculosis patients with a strain resistant to two or more drugs hadn't had the disease before, according to a study at a Chinese hospital.
Of 100 multidrug-resistant TB cases studied at Shandong Provincial Tuberculosis Hospital, 45 weren't previously treated for the lung infection, doctors at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention found. The finding, published in the October edition of Emerging Infectious Diseases journal, indicates "substantial" transmission of the deadly superbug, the authors said.
Many of the affected had the so-called Beijing genotype, which is prevalent in China and has spread to the rest of Asia, the former Soviet republic and South Africa. An estimated 120,000 people catch multidrug-resistant TB each year in China, which has the most cases globally after India.
"The largest amount of people with tuberculosis in the world are in China and India by a long, long way," said Warwick Britton, professor of immunology at the University of Sydney. "And so to really control TB in the world you've got to control TB in China."
Most of the patients in the study were previously treated, lacked health insurance, or less educated, according to the study.
Drug-resistant tuberculosis is spreading in Europe at an "alarming rate," the World Health Organization said Sept. 15.

Why Wok?
Would love some opinions--
I just bought a pow wok from the Wok Shop in San Francisco. I'm excited to get it seasoned and start using it--but my husband just asked, why use a wok? What does it do that our other cast-iron or stainless steel pans can't? I realized that I didn't have a great explanation. Anyone want to help me out?
You may want to post this on the Cookware board
Wiki explains some of them near the end of the page
It's easier to stir fry, because based on its curved shape you create different temp zones (e.g. center is hottest, edges or cooler) which helps in stir frying veggies, meats, and esp. veggies and meats in combo.
Consider finding a copy of Grace Young's Breath of a Wok. She defines so well, why the wok is perfectly suited for the recipes that are in that, and many other , books.
It's the only single pan or pot in your kitchen than can do almost anything. And for all that, it's pretty cheap.
It's got a greater surface area than a saute pan. I hate steamed/boiled cabbage and brussel sprouts. If I fry them in a saute pan, it is too crowded and the greens don't get fried properly.
As chefj allued to, it's about achieving what the Chinese call "wok hei". If you've had any great Chinese food in Chinatown that's been stir fried in a hot wok, you'll know what I'm describing. It's the super high heat from the wok that creates intense maillard reactions on the food.
The problem with wok cooking at home is that most burners are not powerful enough to do the job correctly. Most of the foods we stir-fry release alot of water as they begin to cook, which lowers the temperature of the wok. This means the food stews in the liquid and juices that will inevitably accumulate. The burners in most professional chinese kitchens are really strong and keep the wok temperatures well above boiling point so that moisture never builds up.
That doesn't mean the wok doesn't have other uses and functions in a home kitchen.
A wok functions differently than a fry pan for many reasons. The short answer is that a wok is better for Chinese stir fry. Stir fry is a bit of a confusing term anyway, because Chinese wok cooking involves 8 major techniques, and most people refer only 1 or 2 of the techniques as stir fry.
"The term stir-fry was introduced into the English language by Buwei Yang Chao, in her book How to Cook and Eat in Chinese, to describe the chǎo technique"
Anyway, back to your wok. The curvature of a wok allows you to easier toss foods. If you ever toss foods, then you will find it is much easily to toss and move food in a wok than most other cookware. Remember. Much of the wok surface is not for cooking. It is for maneuvering the food.
The curvature of a wok also allows two other things. First, the heat is concentrated at the bottom. This allows very high heat cooking for short duration as you toss the foods in the wok. The foods will be moving in and out of this very high zone. Second, the cooking oil concentrates at the bottom. This means you can use very small amount of oil to stir fry a relatively larger amount of food.
Finally, it is also a very useful tool for deep fry too. Let's say for some reasons you want to deep fry just a few pieces of chicken. Ordinarily, you will have to use a lot of oil to fill up a sauce pan to do this, but with a wok, you can use much smaller amount of oil to fry a pieces of chicken.
At the end, it is about how you use your wok. You can use it in a way that no cast iron pan can do what a wok does. Or you can use it in a way that any cast iron pan can do the same thing. It has a lot to do how use your wok.
By far, I think the easiest demonstration is fried rice. You can never make fried rice the same way in a cast iron pan vs a wok.
But some of us, sadly, bought older houses with electric ranges in them...it impedes my wokking.
Any tips for better wok use on an electric top? Just had to replace the hot water heater AND furnace this year, so I'm not up to the expense of re-doing the oven/stove to gas (though I'd sure like to as a frequent home cooker).
re: HillsofBeverly
<bought older houses with electric ranges in them>
I have used electric ranges for a long time. It can work. You can either use a flat bottom wok to capture most of the heat, or you can use a wok ring which allows you the full motion of moving foods around a round bottom wok.

Just ordered my first handgun yesterday (the SA XD9 SC) and am looking for suggestions for defensive rounds. I've scoured the web and it seems like if you ask 50 people you will get 51 different answers (depending on the gun, the barrel length, the caliber, personal pref).
In no particular order of preference... I'm looking for:
Consistent mushrooming
I don't want clothing clogging the HP and turning it into a FMJ
I want enough power and velocity to ensure expansion but not so much velocity that overpenetration occurs
It seems like there is just such a science and so many variables that go into choosing what one may consider the perfect defense round for them... I don't know where to start!
And then when you throw in bullet weight, +P & +P+ variants... that all has to add a thumbs up to some of the preferences listed above and a thumbs down to others.
Can people who have a 9mm 3" barrel (and even better if you own the XD9 SC) give some advice on rounds based on the above concerns? What did you choose for your SD round in your 3" barrel handgun and how did you come to that conclusion?

Temin and Company is often quoted in print, broadcast and social media on topical issues as well as industry trends.
Following is a list of links to those articles, beginning with the most recent.
Jena McGregor, The Washington Post, November 21, 2014
When Uber CEO Travis Kalanick rattled off a series of 14 tweets Tuesday afternoon, most of the attention was on what he said rather than how he said it. While Kalanick may have intended to apologize for the controversy that erupted after one of Uber's executives suggested digging into the personal lives of journalists, he was chided for the sorry-not-sorry nature of his remarks.
Yet his decision to issue that apology via a "tweetstorm" — a series of tweets on a single subject — was also a head scratcher. Using a series of tweets, rather than a single one that links to a blog post or press release for more information, has become an increasingly popular vehicle for corporate communications. But that might be misguided.
Davia Temin says she generally likes the idea of executives using a tweetstorm: It has a feel of spontaneity and authenticity, and the flood of comments can prompt greater visibility for the CEO's remarks. If an executive is using it to lay out a position or discuss an industry issue, it can be "a brilliant use of the medium," she says. "People report on a tweetstorm more than a blog." [...read more]
American Banker, November 7, 2014

Rob Meiksins, Nonprofit Quarterly, October 9, 2014
In recent weeks and months, there have been a series of crises in organizations ranging from data breaches at Target, Michaels, and Chase to the sexual abuse scandals at Penn State and domestic violence in the NFL. In many of these cases, although the boards of directors were not blamed directly, they often came under fire for not having paid close enough attention to see the crises coming or for reacting too slowly. It is no surprise, then, articles have begun to appear addressing how a board should act before, during and after a crisis.
Forbes' online news outlet has published a list of 10 things boards should do, authored by contributor Davia Temin, who is listed as a leadership and crisis expert. Although her comments address for-profit corporations for the most part, the lessons can also be applied to nonprofit organizations. [...read more]
Ben DiPietro, The Wall Street Journal's Risk & Compliance Journal, September 29, 2014
Since news of the shortfall was made public Tesco has suspended four senior executives and called in outside auditors and attorneys to investigate. It also moved up the starting date for its new chief financial officer, who was supposed to take over in December but who now is starting immediately. We asked our crisis and reputation experts if the actions taken by Chief Executive Dave Lewis—who assumed the top job just last month—are sufficient to quell the negative publicity.
Davia Temin, president and CEO, Temin and Co.: "When companies are this troubled, new issues keep bubbling up, as this latest one seemingly did. And that is in direct conflict with crisis management rule 101–get all of the bad news out right away, don't let it trickle out–so that once it is all in the open, you can focus on the fixes." [...read more]
Jeff Green, Bloomberg, September 24, 2014
It's becoming a time-worn script. Company gets in trouble. Public gets upset. Company hires former head of three-letter agency or former prosecutor to get to the bottom of said trouble in thick report. Public forgives.
The National Football League's decision to hire former FBI Director Robert Mueller to examine its handling of a player's domestic violence case mimics companies such as General Motors Co. and BP Plc in hiring high-profile outsiders to blunt criticism by airing their dirty laundry. Demand for such investigations has spawned a multi-million business as 55 percent of companies last year said they had at least one internal investigation requiring the assistance of outside counsel, according to an April report on litigation trends by Norton Rose Fulbright.
The question is how impartial these investigation can really be -- or, more broadly, how much truth do they want to find?
"It's always a challenge when you're trying to shine bright lights on what's going on in dark rooms," said Davia Temin, head of the New York-based crisis management firm Temin & Co. "The question always is, how far does the public blood-letting go?" [...read more]
Tim Keown, ESPN, September 18, 2014
Roger Goodell has disappeared. In the NFL's hour of greatest need, its leader has decided to remain silent and invisible. Poof! Vanished. For more than a week, as pictures emerge and indictments are filed and news conferences collapse under the weight of doublespeak and obfuscation, Goodell has sealed himself away from the mounting pile of rubble.
Where is he, and why? Is the commissioner himself on the NFL exempt/commissioner's permission list? His retreat from the public realm gives the impression of a boss who is not only inaccessible, but incapable. This isn't going away soon.
New York crisis management expert Davia Temin says she would tell Goodell this: The league must use its reach and influence to devote itself to the issue of domestic violence, including child abuse. It should mandate its players and team employees to complete the strictest and most comprehensive domestic violence training in corporate America. It should buy in wholly and completely, not as a PR stunt. [...read more]
Nathan Layne, Reuters, September 8, 2014
Home Depot Inc is being tight-lipped about its possible credit card breach, the opposite approach to the one Target Corp took nearly a year ago.
Almost a week after security blogger Brian Krebs warned that Home Depot could be the victim of a breach extending to more than 2,000 U.S. stores, the home improvement chain has not confirmed or denied that one had occurred. The company said Tuesday that it was working with authorities to investigate the matter.
"When you have criminal behavior, you don't know right away what all the ramifications are," said Davia Temin, head of a consultancy focused on crisis and reputation management. "It's really hard when you are trying to overcommunicate not to misstate reality." [...read more]

Signs of economic recovery in Greece are beginning to be evident. And although the pace is slow, it is real.
A little more than a month after Greece issued its first sovereign Eurobond since before the financial crisis, another issuer, National Bank of Greece is reportedly set to come to market with a senior unsecured bond issue of its own–one that could be priced at an even lower yield than the sovereign's, thereby attesting to the improved sentiment surrounding Greece.
Of course, Greece's troubles are far from over. Substantial economic growth is still a dream and unemployment remains at record levels.
And yet there is a sense of great optimism, said Davia Temin, founder and CEO of marketing, reputation, and media strategy for Temin and Co., who was recently in Athens as part of the U.S. State Department's Global Entrepreneurship Program's Entrepreneurship Delegation to Greece. [...read more]

Anyone that shares our morbid attachment to old-school French restaurants will be pleased at the news, reported by Gael Greene, that the owner of Le Madeleine may be taking over the space recently vacated by Rene Pujol. According to Gael, there are still a few loose threads investors to commit, the lease to negotiate, but most of the Madeleine staff will be sticking with Toney Edwards, who ran the place for 28 years before losing the lease a few months ago. The two restaurants were similar in spirit during their long coexistence, and so the move makes a lot of sense like Buddy Hackett replacing Jack Carter at a Friars roast, or salmon filling in for chicken at a wedding dinner.

April 25, 2014
Tandem Friends School celebrated their annual Grandparents' Day Friday morning.
Grandparents and special friends of the school were asked to come out and spend the day with students and get the chance to learn a little more about the school.
There were musical performances by students. Sixth-graders also put on a special performance of "Fiddler on the Roof".
"Tandem has always prided itself on being a real family oriented community school, and often the grandparents who might live further afield don't necessarily have a chance to share in their grandchildren's education. So giving them that opportunity every spring is important," said Andy Jones Wilkins, Head of the School.
Founders of the school were also honored during the day's event.

IT bods: How long does it take YOU to train up on new tech?
I'm a big fan of data networking blogger Greg Ferro, who writes under the moniker Etherealmind. Greg and I are really on the same page with regards to work/life balance but his latest thoughts on that topic struck a chord with me. Drawn from his latest blog post, the key part says: Why am I focused on work life ? After 25 or so …
You do need to multiskilled.
My main area is Telecoms / Contact Centre design...
But how can you do telecoms these days if you don't know VoIP? How can you do VoIP if you don't understand networking, how can you do networking if you do QoS, how can you don't understand the need for QoS? How can you support the end user and understand their needs, if you don't understand the software?
I'm proud to say I came from desktop support, then network, then old school telephony to cutting edge multinational contact centres, but still retain knowledge in the areas I need.
So I CAN get the bloody software working on a Win8 machine, I can do a Wireshark trace and smack the networking team around the head with a keyboard to show it is their problem and I can understand why the business is getting annoyed because what they want isn't working how they think it should do.
There is nothing worse than someone that is so focused on their "skillset" that they have no concept of the other people involved.
Good article
Good article Storagebod.
There was a recent Guardian article on growing older and ageism in IT,
well wort a read. Sorry I can;t find a link at the moment.
And thankyou for the link to Etherealmind - I happen to be doing som enetwork diagrams at the moment, and his book on Visio network diagramming looks very useful!
I am buying a copy.
Re: Good article
Read something similar about a year ago regarding an IT workers lifespan and it was about 15 years.
Hmm time for a change...
It's all about the foundations
I've always suffered from memory problems, especially when a subject isn't particularly interesting from a spiritual point of view - so for my work stuff (network & firewalls) I always had to delve deep into the understanding of how it all hangs together.
This makes initially learning a 'concept' longer, such as a new area of technology that I haven't worked on before, but once you do this you have created a framework within your mind upon which to hang 'information'.
After a time not working on a particular type of device, I can forget a lot of the details, but the infrastructure (i.e. the fundamental understanding) is still there so it can be picked up again in no time at all.
After a few years of this I discovered that the same infrastructure can be employed to learn new kit in a very short time, even under lots of pressure, a very useful skill to have as a consultant with a new job every 6 months or so.
It came as a complete shock to me a few years back when a colleague in a position of trust for a major company, running their firewall estate, didn't know about subnet masks. He said 'that's just the routing stuff' - presumably catagorised under 'someone else's problem' in his head.
He was surprised to learn that his firewalls were routers. Apparently he went on a firewall course to become a firewall engineer - not moving up through the network support path that I thought was ubiquitous - he didn't even know what the 7 layer model was, let alone what they were.
Mind you, I forgot the name of the interface scanning command* on splat in an interview, even though I could recall all the flags to set - still got the job though :) I guess bullshit is a skill too - as long as you can back it up.
*yes, tcpdump
The wife
Is not happy with the amount of studying/ testing that I do on different projects, mostly because I'm an IT whore-> I'll take on pretty much anything. It's really all the same, just different ways of getting there. I run a consulting/IT bidness, local and small scale, keeps the bills paid. wow, ten years now. huh. Didn't realize that. Copy, run, start baby!
Jack of all trades, master of none. You'll get consistent/varied work in any case.
There is too much emphasis placed on paper certs these days and sadly, today's managers seem not to value experience all that much. Yes, I know the IT world is changing at a rapid pace but the main core (network, servers etc) in general is pretty much the same as it was 15-20 years ago albeit a bit faster.
Some job agencies think that if you don't have Windows Server 2012 MCSE then you don't know anything about IT - even with 15 years experience - I don't like IT recruiters at the best of times, mostly young prats with little or no experience themselves.
Re: Experience
I try and turn the certification requirement issue around and look on it as something for my benefit - if the hirer is adamant that it is important then I know I don't want the job which saves a lot of fannying around.
Recruitment nightmare
Think of it from the side of the recruitment agent. Their job is not to find YOU a job, but to find THE candidate that their paying customer WILL recruit. Quite often they will be limited by how many CV's their customer is willing to accept. e.g "Send us your best 5 candidates..." and they will be in competition with other recruitment agents.
In that environment, where there are candidates with the paper certificates, and those without them, and their customer has asked for people which that qualification, then its a brave recruitment agent to go with experience over paper.
Now as someone recruiting, I know with developers certificates are usually a warning flag. Someone does courses when they are struggling to find a job. Good programmers don't struggle to find a job....
skillset requirements in IT
Sadly - the number one skillset I've seen missing in IT is communications. If you cant explain it to someone in upper management it can be *very* hard to get leverage to solve the problem.
I've been in IT for (aaaaak) pretty much 34 years now. And working with my current employer for 15 of those. I recognize that gives me a huge advantage, knowing history on systems here, but I also get to play with the newer toys when they get here - because I can show a history of having learned new stuff, made it work, and work well. And in the cases where it was appropriate, having stood up, admitted I blew it the first time, and presented a solution to make it better.
I love digging into the new things, and getting a handle on them. Usually I only need a few days to get the basics, a few weeks to get the overall and a month or two to get conversant with the inner workings. IT would be boring without new toys.
I firmly believe if you aren't learning something new fairly consistently, your a prime candidate for being automated (or outsourced) out of a job. But then I'm a screaming cynic.
Back to my hadoop playground.
I buy the stuff to learn about it at home. Then once I know all about it then I resell it to local family or so down the street.
It is normal for a company to buy something and test it for 6 months before it becomes a company standard.
If your company uses tons of app the testing involved is so to confirm maximum compatibility.
Same goes for windows updates. We test all in a private network before it is sent out to users desktops unless it is a emergency security patch.
"I buy the stuff to learn about it at home. Then once I know all about it then I resell it to local family or so down the street."
I'm fairly sure the market for Nexus 7000 devices is fairly small for 'local families' :)
How long?
A lifetime because it's always changing and sometimes not for the best. That's the hardest stuff to learn. Technology that is obviously backward, re-invents the wheel and adds needless complication is hard to grasp because your brain keeps saying "WTF?!".
But learn it you must.
New things are often old things dressed up with new terminology. The trick is to recognise when there really is a difference in the new stuff.
Before I retired I often had to pick up the essential points in components of a system quickly - to diagnose the root cause of a festering problem. It didn't make me an expert on the components - even though I could quickly sound like one. The role was more like being an interpreter between certificated people whose knowledge area was worryingly narrow.
My jaw dropping moment was when a Cisco certified network designer asked me what the prefix "mega" actually meant.
It's the same with software development mostly but as I've found out recently sometimes there can be a seismic shift that takes longer to grasp. This is especially true if it becomes 'formalised' it seems.
In my case after 22 years employment I was cast adrift last September. It was then I encountered WPF. Now I'd heard of it before then but my previous projects had never used it (being either MFC or WinForms depending on age). The shift over to data binding and MV(V)M is a bit mind blowing. I've mostly come to terms with it now but it took a while. Just a little bit too much 'magic' being kept hidden away (supposedly for my own good?).
Another one I came across very recently was 'dependency injection' and had to use some weird framework that seemed designed to hide the truth from you. Then I found a blog that explained it was when you create objects and give them to a new class rather than the new class creating its own objects (usually coupled with an external file that allowed objects to be controlled and linked without recompiling). Oh and look it has all these cool advantages..
Well duh.
It's also amusing to hear how everything I'm catching up on is the ultimate tool that will solve all our problems.
Uh huh.

About Dominic (heart defect)
Dominic is a sweet little boy receiving care at our Anhui Healing Home. When he arrived at AHH, he was very tiny and a little blue due to his heart defect. Dominic recently had his second heart surgery and has now returned to AHH for recovery. He will benefit from the special care, warm environment, and nutritious food at AHH while he recovers during the coming cold months.
Dominic requires a lot of care and needs several sponsors to cover his funding. Sponsors will receive monthly updates and photos of this precious little guy.
Shared sponsorships of $25 per month are also available. If you are interested in a shared sponsorship, please simply change the default amount to $25 per month when making your donation.
On behalf of Dominic--thank you!

Fire races up 'air vent' in Sydney
A witness captures video of a fire racing up the side of a building on the corner of George and Jamieson Streets in the Sydney CBD on Tuesday.PT0M56S http://www.watoday.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-3er65 620 349 September 2, 2014

Around 100 people were evacuated from a eight-storey building on George Street after a fire broke out in its basement on Tuesday.
Firefighters said the fire started in the kitchen of the Emperor's Choice Chinese restaurant just before 4pm and spread to the roof via an outside flue.

"The fire's occured in a downstairs area in a restaurant and has travelled up the chimney, or the flue, up the outside and onto the roof," Fire & Rescue NSW Superintendent Ian Krimmer said.
Huge plumes of dark smoke and a flame on the outside of the building could be seen from nearby office buildings and the footpath on what is one of Sydney's busiest streets.
An office worker who did not want to be named said he saw the fire from an adjacent building and left the area because it smelled "toxic". He said the flame went up in a matter of minutes.

By around 4.30pm the blaze was out, and by around 5pm firefighters were allowing people back into the building.
Superintendent Krimmer said firefighters were on the scene within two minutes and it was due to that rapid response that the fire was quickly contained.
He said there was fire damage to the kitchen and some water damage to the restaurant. They do not know what caused the fire to start.
Witnesses said an external pipe on the building looked to have caught fire. Photo: Troy Knox
The Transport Management Centre said one northbound lane closed on George Street, but by 6pm had reopened.
There was heavy northbound traffic near Margaret St.

to be in Lieu and Discharge of the said Two hundred
Pounds a Year for ever, from Midsummer last past: And

Hollis Esquire, or to Sir Walter Earle Knight, or either

disbursed by them, or either of them, upon Account, for
the Safety of the County of Dorsett, and the Town of
WE have, with unspeakable Grief of Heart, long beheld the Distractions of this Our Kingdom: Our very
Soul is full of Anguish, until We may find some Remedy
to prevent the Miseries which are ready to overwhelm
this whole Nation by a Civil War. And though all Our
Endeavours tending to the Composing of those unhappy
Differences betwixt Us and Our Two Houses of Parliament (though pursued by Us with all Zeal and Sincerity), have been hitherto without that Success We hoped
for; yet such is Our constant and earnest Care to preserve the publick Peace, that We shall not be discouraged
from using any Expedient, which, by the Blessing of the
God of Mercy, may lay a firm Foundation of Peace and
Happiness to all Our good Subjects. To this End, observing that many Mistakes have risen by the Messages,
Petitions, and Answers, betwixt Us and Our Two Houses
of Parliament, which happily may be prevented by some
other Way of Treaty, wherein the Matters in Difference
may be more clearly understood, and more freely transacted; We have thought fit to propound to you, that
some fit Persons may be by you enabled to treat with the
like Number to be authorized by Us, in such a Manner,
and with such Freedom of Debate, as may best tend to
that happy Conclusion which all good Men desire; the
Peace of the Kingdom. Wherein as We promise, in the
Word of a King, all Safety and Encouragement to such as
shall be sent to Us, if you shall chuse the Place where
We are for the Treaty, which We wholly leave to you,
presuming of your like Care of the Safety of those We
shall employ, if you shall name another Place; so We
assure you, and all Our good Subjects, that, to the best
of Our Understanding, nothing shall be therein wanting
on Our Parts, which may advance the true Protestant
Religion, oppose Popery and Superstition, secure the Law
of the Land (upon .... is built as well Our just Prerogative, as the Propriety and Liberty of the Subject),
confirm all just Power and Privileges of Parliament, and
render Us and Our People truly happy, by a good Understanding betwixt Us and Our Two Houses of Parliament. Bring with you as firm Resolutions to do your
Duty: And let all Our good People join with Us in Our
Prayers to Almighty God for his Blessing upon the Work.
If this Proposition shall be rejected by you, We have
done Our Duty so amply, that God will absolve Us from
the Guilt of any of that Blood which must be spilt. And
what Opinion other Men may have of Our Power, We
assure you, nothing but Our Christian and pious Care to
prevent the Effusion of Blood, hath begot this Motion;
Our Provision of Men, Arms, and Money, being such, as
may secure Us from further Violence, till it shall please
God to open the Eyes of Our People.
May it please your Majesty,
THE Lords and Commons in Parliament assembled,
having received Your Majesty's Message of the 25th of
August, do, with much Grief, resent the dangerous and
distracted State of this Kingdom; which we have, by all
Means, endeavoured to prevent, both by our several Advices and Petitions to Your Majesty, which have been
not only without Success, but there hath followed that,
which no ill Counsel in former Times hath produced, or
any Age hath seen; namely, these several Proclamations,
and Declarations, against both the Houses of Parliament,
whereby their Actions are declared Treasonable, and their
Persons Traitors: And thereupon Your Majesty hath set
up Your Standard against them; whereby you have put
the Two Houses of Parliament, and in them this whole
Kingdom, out of Your Protection. So that, until Your
Majesty shall recall those Proclamations and Declarations, whereby the Earl of Essex, and both Houses of
Parliament, and their Adherents and Assistants, and such
as have obeyed and executed their Commands and Directions, according to their Duties, are declared Traitors,
or other Delinquents; and, until the Standard set up in
pursuance of the said Proclamations, be taken down;
Your Majesty hath put us into such a Condition, that
whilst we so remain, we cannot, by the fundamental Privileges of Parliament, the publick Trust reposed in us,
or with the general Good and Safety of this Kingdom,
give Your Majesty any other Answer to this Message.

Greg and Laura Norman
The golfer had to give his ex-wife $105 million. Well, at least this marriage lasted a little while. The Normans were married in 1981 and divorced in 2006, so the two split up after a 25 years of marriage.
