Managing procurement of your energy and other business utilities
According to the ISBA's website, a bursar's responsibilities consist of twenty aspects within 'Finance and Accountancy', nineteen in 'General Management and Administration' and a further nine under 'School Buildings' and ' School Grounds' - a total of forty-eight.
However many of these duties encompass a much wider brief, and the total is more likely to be closer to one hundred! Thus the role of bursar requires considerable experience within these different areas including finance, administration, purchasing and legal matters, building maintenance, repairs and energy, personnel and health and safety. This is why the ISBA states, "Nobody can be expert in all these topics and one of the secrets of success is to know when to ask for advice and where to obtain that advice".
In March this year, the press featured many articles on the situation in private schools throughout the U.K.
Clearly, more and more schools are finding it necessary to manage their costs in the most effective way – not subordinating quality and/or service, but ensuring the best value for money. So perhaps at this critical time in the economy, the topic where bursars most require advice is in the field of cost and purchase management.
Schools, like all other organisations, have to spend money to carry out their work. Premises costs, communications, energy, water, waste management, business consumables, finance and insurance are just some of the essential operational overheads incurred, without which they cannot function.
Traditional cost reduction programmes focus on headline prices and short-term savings, but this approach overlooks many of the issues that affect the real cost of purchasing business overheads. Just because a supplier offers you a low price it doesn't mean that you will maintain quality and make meaningful, long-term savings. After all, how do you know if it's the best price? What if their prices go up next month and you're tied into a long-term contract? Will they apply minimum charges that push your costs up rather than down? Do you have time to monitor your prices constantly and check your bills? And so on.
Even bursars who are aware of the need to control their costs, struggle to achieve meaningful savings because they lack the time and resources to drive cost reduction programmes. In a recent surveyª accountants KPMG concluded, "Businesses are under constant pressure to reduce cost, yet many find it hard to do so in a sustainable fashion. Nine out of ten cost reduction programmes fail to achieve their targets, and the gains that are achieved appear to be short-lived".
All schools want to meet their aims and really need to focus on managing their costs consistently and diligently rather than making on one-off savings. This is the true function of cost and purchase management. According to one of the leading consultancies in this field, many schools are turning to providers of this service to give them access to the latest developments.
Take one very expensive item – insurance. Anecdotal evidence suggests that many organisations tend to rely on their current broker for the lowest premium. However, it pays to research the marketplace thoroughly, especially in the light of the latest trends in the marketplace. A leading broker reveals, "There has been a soft market for the last five years, but now many insurers are in trouble and rates are increasing". One school turned for advice to an independent cost management consultant who had reviewed their energy bills. The result was a saving of some £30,000.
A smaller matter perhaps? What about schools with foreign students and their cheques from a variety of banks? Well, they normally take seven weeks to process with all the ancillary costs. However, your consultant can introduce you to a foreign exchange company who can reduce these costs by up to 80% and shorten the processing time by more than four weeks.
However, as in any other profession, there is best practice in cost management. Bursars should always check exactly what they are going to get! For example, one of the most important things to consider when employing an outsourced expert is their auditing procedure. Best practice review processes should include the following:
Achieving the projected savings (and rebates for overcharges in the past) should be just the beginning of the job. The consultant should continue to assess current expenditure against new tariffs and services as they become available, to ensure that benefits continue at optimum cost efficiency across all essential business outgoings.
Most schools would naturally prefer ethical business solutions (often referred to as Corporate Social Responsibility), as they recognise the need to be accountable for the impact of their activities on the environment and society. So choose someone with the same ideals!
Whilst reducing costs is vital, there are several other advantages for a bursar. With a firm handle on costs within the school, bursars are more able to:
By choosing the right consultant, many bursars have found a trusted and valued adviser who will provide them with all the support they require to help keep their ship afloat during its many voyages!

December 2013 at The Hungry Cyclist Lodge
A dense white fog consumes everything. Days come and go but the mist remains. Village bells and passing cars break the complete silence and brittle shards of frost cling to the limbs of trees and leaves shrubs.
When the mist does lift the landscape is brilliant white under a crisp blue sky. Wine makers still tend to their crop, cutting away the branches that held last years' vintage, before burning them in homemade braziers that billow white smoke high over the landscape. On days like these a morning on the bicycle is a perfect tonic. Sharp air fills lungs, cheeks redden on steep down-hills and the hot stew and red wine that awaits at home have never tasted better.
Alas the ground is solid at this time of year so work in the garden is impossible. Instead it has been slow cold progress inside The Hungry Cyclist Lodge and a break for the holiday season could not have come sooner.
The Christmas cards have been posted, the presents wrapped. My first year in Burgundy has come to an end and as ever below are a selection of images taken in Burgundy and at The Hungry Cyclist Lodge in December.

12 Queer Comics You Should Know
By Alex Panisch
Amy Schumer's hilariously raw sketch comedy show Inside Amy Schumer returned to Comedy Central last night. And, of course, it made us laugh. In honor of one of our favorite funny ladies, who also relies on the humor of gay women and men for some of her best material, we've compiled a list of 12 queer comedians—new and old—who we continue to make us crack a smile. And before you ask: No, we didn't include everyone's fave, Ellen DeGeneres, because, well, what else is there to say?

Be part of our growth - Become an LPIA Officer
A word from our President...
It is my sincere pleasure to welcome you to our Louisiana Private Investigator Association's home on the web!
Over two decades ago, in 1987 to be exact, a forward thinking group of professional private investigators formed the Louisiana Private Investigators Association… the LPIA. Members of the LPIA are afforded the opportunity of associating with other licensed private investigators from around the Bayou State that subscribe to the highest standards of practice and professionalism. Our members promote the ideals of honesty, ethical investigative techniques and ethical behavior.
We realize that we represent not only ourselves and our companies, but also our clients. When you choose an LPIA member, you can do so with confidence! You'll know that you are hiring an industry leading investigator who subscribes to our "code of ethics", the most stringent in the business.
Since several members have asked me about looking into having the LPIA take a more active role in community projects and charity, the LPIA Board is considering several areas where we can impact our community and State; both through the fruits of our labor as well as our time and professional skills. This will be a different path than the LPIA has ever followed in its 26 year history, and we will seek to involve both members and non-member private investigators for a better tomorrow for our clients and the citizens of Louisiana. Even if you are not interested at this time in membership, but would be interested in participating in our charity or community project goals, you are invited to sign up for our newsletter that will provide more details as they are planned and scheduled.
On behalf of the officers and members of the LPIA for 2013, I thank you for your interest in our association. LPIA members have always enjoy valuable benefits and are always on the leading edge of the industry. This year we will also strive to be on the leading edge of LPIA's history!
We have several membership categories to accommodate you; please consider joining us. Even if you are not a member yet, you are invited to sign up for our newsletter.

You should be able to go online and check to see if the facility is in-network. You can also call Cigna member services and ask if the facility is in-network. Keep asking for a supervisor until someone gives you a straight answer. I would NOT risk having to pay out of pocket for a birth. Not only because it would be expensive, but God forbid your baby have complications, they may deny the baby coverage because the birth wasn't covered. NICU can run $100,000 a week. I think it's best to check this out thoroughly.
P.S. I have experience in the health coverage industry.

Rap-Up TV: J. Cole Talks Jay-Z, Trey Songz Collaborations
In Part 2 of our interview with J. Cole, the Roc Nation star explains how he finally decided on the title of his debut album Cole World: The Sideline Story after weighing several options.
"I actually wanted to do Cole World for the second album title, but by the time people started suggesting it, it just kinda went all the way out the window," he told Rap-Up TV. "When I came up with an album title that I actually liked, it was The Sideline Story. But it felt incomplete. I felt like, 'Oh man, let's make it a series and make Cole World the Star Wars [with sub-titles].' Cole World is something that my fans recognize and they love and I love it too."
The "Work Out" rapper went in the studio with Stargate and Shea Taylor, but No I.D., Danja, and Brian Kidd will make the final cut come September 27. He also has a song picked out for Jay-Z, which he produced, and is just waiting for his mentor to bless it with a verse.
Additionally, Trey Songz appears on another record. "That song is a very, very good song and it's fun," shared Cole.

Duck Tape Package Winners! by Admin
Congratulations to…
Margaret P
Elaine K
Kristen D.
Sara P.
Crystal M.
Dee M.
Nikk M
Thanks for all your great comments and duck tape ideas! I copied some of my favorites below. Now we're on to our next giveaway for Halloween! Enter to win Orange and Black Office Supplies!
- Make bracelets and folders
- Mend boots, tents, seats and camping gear. The kids love the patterned one to apply to their bikes and craft projects.The clear package sealing tape is sturdy and easy to use for all of our mailing needs.
- Make Hair Bows
- We use it for everything. Reinforcing boxes, closing up leaks in our house, fixing tools and toys.
- I currently use it on my passenger side door to keep the molded plastic inside piece of the door attached to the frame (the stupid little tabby things broke off and I'm not spending $100′s to fix it when I open that door maybe 4x a year). It works like a charm! I even made sure to get tape that almost matches the door so you can't really tell
- I use duck tape to cover sharp edges on my husband's hospital bed and wheelchair as well as other sharp edges that can harm him.
- My husband is a photographer so duct tape is always handy for taping a branch out of the way, or adjusting an ill fitting dress or costume. It's also great for sticking up a backdrop in a hurry.
- I use white colored duct rape on the rubber gasket of the hotel commercial washer door so that it does not leave black stains on white sheets.
- A few of us have used it to repair shoes. It makes them last a very long time! If you wrap it all the way around the soles, it is even better traction for hiking
- Daddy always said "If it moves and it's not supposed to, duct tape it!"
- I have also used the clear tape to make tape transfers (transparencies) for my collage work.
- Colorful duck tape great for marking your luggage
- Seal a leaky tent, tape down signs that were flapping in the wind, make an impromptu handle for a shopping bag
- I have used duct to patch the butt of a co-workers jeans when they ripped.
- We need tape to keep our 3 yr olds diaper on

"A few months before my mother actually died, I contacted my good friends at Nashville Funeral and Cremation Service, for advise on how to plan the funeral arrangements. Mother had been in a nursing home for almost two years and on more than one occasion I received calls that the end was in sight. In her 91st year of life, I intellectually knew that this was a time of passage: I just wasn't ready to let go. Prior to calling Nashville Funeral and Cremation Service, I visited the funeral home that handled my Dad's funeral some 7 years earlier. I had asked them to pull his records and review the arrangements so we could plan for Mother's. I was shocked by the inflationary increases over those few short years. After talking with Nashville Funeral and Cremation Service, I was surprised to learn that their industry had not experienced that kind of economic impact and it opened a discussion on the quality of funeral services that would indeed be "our choice," not just be a repeat customer. After careful thought and discussion with my siblings, we knew Mother would love to have the visitation at the church where she and our Father attended for the 59 years they were married.
When the end did indeed come, Nashville Funeral and Cremation Service was there to take over the helm and gently guide us through the planning of every detail. It was lovely, peaceful and dignified; just like Mom. We all still miss her today but the send-off was blessed. Thank you Nashville Funeral and Cremation Service."

About me
I teach law students at the University of California, Berkeley. School of Law (Boalt).
I was hired in the late nineties by Federal Judge Jeffrey White to teach his civil law students the skills of courtroom presentation. I have been working with advocacy students using a one on one coaching method ever since. Guest judges who preside over our student final trials say they are more effective than the professional lawyers who come into their own courtrooms!
I also coach practicing attorneys individually and in classes at firms like Cooley Godward and Orrick, Herrington and Sutcliffe. I also work with politicians, business people,teachers and actors.
I have been an award winning theatre director for 23 years.

Website "challenges"
by Robert Stewart, Director
In case you haven't noticed, this website is not functioning quite right. We are trying to restore it to full functionality, but in the meantime, please bear with us.
Background: Last Friday we learned that our service provider had "gone out of business." We had not been informed about this, so hadn't had the chance to make other arrangements.
We're continuing to work on recovering all of the files and the database of content from the old site. Check by now and again to see where we are in the process (and wish us luck!).

I have heard that even if you pay off a collection account, that it does not make a difference in your score. Is this true.
In 99.999% of paying them off it makes no difference. It is not supposed to. FICO sees a collection as a collection, it doesn't score for the pay status.
In some cases something will not be coded correctly and may change your score. Not necessarily for the good.

Wikis are at the center of the world we know as Web 2.0. In just a few short years, the wiki has become one of the most popular tools on the Internet, thanks to a few very high profile projects and many smaller sites that are helping millions of users communicate and stay organized. The wiki's open approach, where anyone can post and edit, makes it the perfect counterpart for another famous tool of the new Internet known as the blog. Wikis offer an easy and intuitive means for collecting and editing content.

Definition: What is tsundere?
Posted by Neko Kyou in Defining on August 8th, 2007
It's debatable whether Suzumiya Haruhi is a tsundere, but from my point of view, she's more a tsuntsun type character
Deredere is the opposite of tsuntsun. A deredere character is often uncertain and needs a push to get going. Nerine from Shuffle! and Mikuru from Suzumiya Haruhi can be considered as deredere characters.
Come to think of it, Sakura is also a deredere type character...
Now we have tsundere, the combination of both tsuntsun and deredere traits. A tsundere is a person who starts off with a tsuntsun type personality but ends up with a deredere personality. They are the serious, highly ambitious and confident type but slowly develops or shows signs of deredere, usually developing feelings for another character and dropping the tough front.
Tsundere's are usually female lead characters, but the term itself is not gender specific. Some of the more popular tsundere characters includes -
- Hiiragi Kagami (Lucky Star)
- Narusegawa Naru (Love Hina)
- Shana (Shakugan no Shana)
- Tohsaka Rin (Fate/Stay Night)
- Tendo Akane (Ranma 1/2)

Tsundere is actually a term derived by fans to classify a type of anime character that is becoming more common, usually a female lead. It is the combination of two words

Joanna Pacitti, the American Idol season 8 hopeful who was shown advancing to the top 36 on Wednesday night's telecast (click here for the full recap), has been booted from the competition and replaced by 26-year-old Felicia Barton. "It has been determined that Joanna Pacitti is ineligible to continue in the competition," stated a Fox press release sent early Thursday morning announcing the show's full roster of semifinalists.
For the last several weeks, Pacitti has been the subject of Internet chatter regarding her former deal with A&M Records, which yielded the single "Let It Slide" (embedded below), and more recently, for her rumored close relationship with a pair of 19 Entertainment executives. Specifically, Star magazine reported that Pacitti lived for a time in the same apartment building as 19's Michelle Young and Roger Widynowski, even referring to the former exec as her "best friend"; 19, of course, is the production company behind Idol.
Barton, meanwhile, was shown getting eliminated by the judges during Wednesday night's final Hollywood Week telecast, although a brief clip of her singing "Put Your Records On" during the Louisville, KY, audition round had created a decent mount of buzz among Idol watchers. (Read our recap of that episode, including a mention of Barton, by clicking here; and check out a YouTube clip of Barton covering Alicia Keys' "No One" embedded beneath Pacitti's video.)
Check back later tonight and tomorrow morning at EW.com for further updates.

This image is 1.5MB. Webkit and Trident—that is, 75% of the browser market—cannot render any more than the first frame, which is only about 11KB worth of data. There are 274 frames in this image, and the vast majority of users can only see the first one.
This file is 645KB, less than half the size—because there are lots of good tools that can optimize GIFs. It works in every single major browser. It has the same amount of color information—contrary to popular belief, GIF is only limited to 256 colors per frame, not per image. The framerate is wonky because, well, I have no way to tell what it should be: there are barely any tools for working with APNGs. The best I could do was dump all the frames and stitch them back together at an arbitrary constant framerate.
APNG was invented because Mozilla needed animations with translucency for Firefox's UI. That's all. It's not a recommended standard. It's not the wave of the future. It was rejected by the PNG group. Nobody has any reason to implement it, especially when there was already a format that does the same thing.
If you want to use something nobody can see as a push for support, you could always jump on MNG! At least Konqueror can render those, I think.

Maven – good or bad for Clojure
I won't be wrong if I say clojure's official build tool is Leiningen (http://github.com/technomancy/leiningen/) . Leiningen uses maven for dependency management. Maven has always been an controversial topic in Java word. Some people like it and some don't.
We all know this joke
"Q: What's the difference between Ant and Maven? A: The creator of Ant has apologized."
To be fair, I have worked with Maven in only project and it was not a good experience. I am still not sure whether it is fault of Maven or the way we used. I want to understand. I love Clojure and I am going to be using Clojure for sometime. I want to make sure we learn from what has been done before and make correct choice esp for a build tool. If Maven is bad, then we should re think about Leiningen using Maven.
The idea for this blog is not be give a conclusion, rather to gather information to make a better choice.
For Maven:
"If you're on a project that is similar to a single Apache project (a single distributable with a single set of unit tests) then you've hit Maven's sweet spot."
"Using Maven, instead of having a lib folder per project, you have a "local repository" (just a bunch of files in a particular directory structure) instead where your jars can be used by multiple projects. Each project defines it's dependencies in a sensible declarative way and Maven sorts out the classpath for compiling the code, running the tests, or even packaging everything into a self contained executable jar with all dependencies. "
"Having the project's dependencies specified in the Maven way means that you only need this information in one place."
"Maven is like a set of sensibly written Ant targets which can be used with hardly any effort as long as you use the standard Maven directory structure. Things like compiling, running the unit tests and creating a war. It also provides a suprisingly large number of more advanced build related things, like running code coverage or pmd reports – also very easy to use without having to write a load of stuff."
"build lifecycle, standard project layout"
"reusable plugins, repositories"
"Dependencies are downloaded automatically"
"There is some benefit from Metcalf effects. If everybody assumes that everybody else is using maven, the tools get written with that assumption, the IDEs support it and so forth."
Against Maven:
"For something that is supposed to save me time, I sure as hell am wasting a shit load of time on making it do what I want and watching it do what it does (or not), and fixing the way it works. "
"Few people around me dare to touch pom files. It's like magic and I hate magicians myself. When it doesn't work they look at me to fix it."
"Maven is not capable of remembering the history of what you did and what has changed since the last time you ran it so like any bureaucrat it basically does maximum damage to compensate for its ignorance."
"Maven is brittle as hell. Few people on your project will understand how to modify a pom file. So they do what they always do, which is copy paste bits and pieces that are known to more or less do what is needed elsewhere. The result is maven hell."
" You'll be stuck with no longer needed dependencies, plugins that nobody has a clue about, redundant profiles for phases that are never executed, half broken profiles for stuff that is actually needed, random test failures."
"When one team is producing a number of artifacts, you find yourself needing to work around the Maven structure, often with resorting to "Pom Inheritence". You have to do ugly things like maven installs before hand."
"If you need to do anything more complex than the standard build, then you start to obfuscate the build process. Strange things like different processes running under different profiles (whether or not the build is running on a build server or not) can be very confusing for lots of people."
"Maven adds more complexity to your development environment as you rely on either a public artefact server, or need to set up an internal one. Whilst this seems simple, it is yet another environmental factor that affects how you develop, and its external nature adds variability to projects that often cause false negative build failures."
"We're building a very large and complex product consisting of over 75 projects which in all have over 400 pom files! Maven just can't handle it. When it doesn't try to download dependencies and plugins we didn't specify, it fails to clean the build directories before building, or confuses SNAPSHOT with release build numbers! Not to mention the lack of backward compatibility from one Maven version to another, from one plugin version to another. Plugin Hell!"
"Total productivity loss counts in man-months to clean up the mess every time."
"Maven is broken and wrong if it behaves differently on my laptop at the office and at home. Maven is broken and wrong if it requires an internet connection to delete a directory."
"Maven's broken dependency management is also a gaping security hole, since it is currently impossible in Maven to determine where artifacts originally came from and whether or not they were tampered with. Artifacts are automatically checksummed when they are uploaded to a repository, and Maven automatically verifies that checksum when it downloads the artifact, but Maven implicitly trusts the checksum on the repository it downloaded the artifact from."
"Maven advocates claim their tool embraces the principle of Convention Over Configuration; Maven advocates are liars. The only convention Maven supports is: compile, run unit tests, package .jar file. Getting Maven to do anything else requires configuring the conventions."
If I missed out something, let me know I will update.

Clojure Start – Easy way to get started with pet clojure projects
I created this new project clojure-start . It is mainly to get started with small pet clojure projects. Just clone from here http://github.com/sivajag/clojure-start
1) Make sure you have leiningen (http://github.com/technomancy/leiningen) installed
2) lein deps
3) lein swank
4) In emacs do slime-connect and start hacking :)
This project already comes with compojure (http://github.com/weavejester/compojure) and example code.
Let me know what you think.
PS: I will keep clojure-start updated with new open source clojure libraries.
Feedback welcome
Debug Repl — debugging clojure code
Lets first make sure we need a debugging tool. I for one believe (addicted) to test driven development. I should not say believe, in fact my mind works better when I write tests. Writing tests force to me to think all different scenarios code could be executed and what should be the outcome. So I have good test coverage and it is easy to debug my code when a test fail. As I will know exactly where the problem is. But when I am running my code in context of some environment it is difficult to find issues. That is when I use poor man's debugging tool (yes I am talking about println) and try to find what is causing issue. So there is a need for a debugging tool …
My friend and colleague George introduced to me to debug-repl. In fact he wrote it. It is so simple to use. Include
(use 'alex-and-georges.debug-repl)
and put
where you want debug repl to start. When you run code, debug repl will stop the execution of code and will start a repl. Now you are free to see what values are set etc.
Check it out …
You can find debug repl at http://github.com/GeorgeJahad/debug-repl
Happy debugging … (but write tests … no excuses)

Heart of My Heart: Amethyst Pearl Pendant Necklace
Hearts were among the most desired jewelry motifs of the Edwardian age and this turn-of-the century pendant displays the design in its entire splendor. Queen Alexandra absolutely loved amethysts; consequently this luscious stone became one of the preferred gems.
A deeply colored amethyst has been faceted, cut in the shape of the enigmatic heart and set within a 15k yellow gold mount edged with a delicate saw tooth perimeter. At the crest of the heart an ionic style scroll takes on the role of a golden halo with ribbons with natural half seed pearl accents caressing the sides. The amethyst is just superb in its depth of color and gives the gem a mystical overlay. It measures 21 mm wide at the widest point and 24 mm high with a weight estimated at 33 carats. Set in the original gold bale are natural half seed pearls in floral form.
The pendant is accompanied by a 9k yellow gold rope chain with patterned barrel clasp. Although most likely not original to the heart, the chain is well suited to the piece.
Measurements: 17-3/4 inches (42.5 cm) in total length. Drop is 1-3/4 inches (4.2 cm) in length by 1-1/8 inches (2.8 cm) in width. Weight of 15.6 grams (10 dwt).
Hallmarks: 15ct for pendant; 375 (for 9k) for the chain.
Condition: Excellent
Date & Origin: Circa 1900 and is English in origin.
