When do they get their voting rights?
Lawsuits to Declare Animal "Persons" Coming Soon
"Animal standing," that is, the drive to allow animals to sue, would be the ultimate weapon allowing animal rights ideologues to destroy animal industries and eventually outlaw all animal domestication. To do that, some believe, at least some animals need to first be declared "persons" by a court–particularly given that whale lack of personhood was the reason stated by the judge that refused to grant them protection under the 13th Amendment in the recent PETA lawsuit against Sea World.
Most people remain somnolent in the face of the threat. Not me. I keep banging the pots. My latest attempt is in the Weekly Standard. From "Animal Desires:"
It has already started. The European Court of Human Rights agreed in 2008 to hear the appeal of an Austrian Supreme Court ruling denying personhood to a chimp. More such cases could soon be filed in the United States. Law professor and animal rights activist Steven Wise was quoted in theNew York Times recently promising to file lawsuits starting in 2013 with the goal of using "the latest science to help persuade state court judges that such creatures as whales and chimpanzees should be accorded common law personhood and rights."
Wise runs the Nonhuman Rights Project, where, since 2007, he and 50 other activists have busily researched the most likely jurisdictions for a ruling that at least one animal "has the capacity to possess at least one legal right." It would be easy to roll one's eyes and dismiss this as simply what radical lawyers do, to little effect. That would be a mistake. "Animal personhood" has become a respected idea in philosophy, the life sciences, the academy generally, and among some within the highly politicized science establishment.
I point out that the idea of animal personhood has caught on among some in philosophy and the life sciences.

I just want to wish everyone a happy "Re-Elect Obama Day". I hope everyone has a safe and joyful holiday!+6
I hope George doesn't sue me for a larger pasture and more grain.
Of COURSE we have one of these extreme animal rights nutjobs appointed by obamarxist: Cass Sunstein (Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs)+3
I smashed a sick or injured bat in my driveway with a shovel the other day. It was totally pre-meditated. Go ahead and sue me.+3
The left is only too happy to blenderize babies, but animals are people too?+7
@bitterclinger, exactly! The extreme left eco freakos are always whining about babies being bad for the environment!+4
This is only the beginning…. when animals achieve personhood, intermarriage with other species is the next step.
(Some folks already leave their assets to their pets in their will, don't they? The pets were the life partner…)+6
With things as they are my Lab would be a far better person that what passes today. Kevin has never rioted over the outcome of a basketball game and has certainly never ransacked a Walgreens.+9
No animal should have rights, I don't care how long the Occutards protest,…..now my dog yes, the occutard animals no.+6
on a 2nd note, that means the right to marry then too. You heard the occutards say they should be able to have sex with animals, then why not marriage?
I'll bet the muslim men will be happy likewise.+6
Well, this is finally some really GREAT news for Rachel Maddow, Rosie O'Donnell, Randi Rhodes, etc. Finally a way to call then people! At last!!+8
Have these nutjobs thought about what happens after all animal industries are destroyed and domestication of animals is outlawed? What happens to all of the animals who were formerly under the protection of their human owners? For instance, if all horse industries and horse ownership are outlawed, what do they do with all of the horses? Let them all "run free"? They would starve. So, eventually there would BE no more horses. These animal activists are complete kooks.+5
"I now pronounce you man and chimp."+4
@conservative cowgirl — It's called the Tradgey of the Commons. You can websearch that. When the buffalo were on public land, they were hunted close to extinction. But then some people raised them on private land and their numbers grew.
The libtard answer? Well, just outlaw hunting on public lands. Actually, just outlaw hunting altogether. Read this speech by Michael Crichton called Complexity Theory and Environmental Management. The discussion about the mismanagement of Yellowstone is the key.
It's the law of unintended consequences. Liberals just don't believe that socialism has any.+2
Another class of "people" that won't be able to figure out how to get a photo ID so they can vote?
Obviously. this is just the left looking to grow their voter base. "Pet Sematary."+2
Wait one minute …all animals have there place……
On the plate, next to the potatoes!+1
Wait this could be good, If a racoon attacks me, I'll be able to sue him and take his home.
I always wanted a tree house!!!!!!!+2
It is all from this kook – Cass Sunstein
Lets see, Sunstein sunstein, that is Jewish – no?0
Animals have the RIGHT to be EATEN. I reserve the right to go back for SECONDS.+3
Are they including wookies here?0
Too Much Time
TY for the link for Michael Creighton's speech. I love his work.0

The Collector's Guide to Cluster Puzzles
of the 1960s and 1970s by Kelvin Palmer
Puzzlers have described them as tough, funny, unique, odd, ingenious,
weird, a trip, Suess-esque and "the most unusual puzzles I've ever seen".
Having observed that a growing number of collectors are discovering or
re-discovering these fun and interesting items, I have written and published
"The Collector's Guide to Cluster Puzzles of the 1960s and 1970s".
Quite simply, the book is THE authoritative source of Cluster Puzzle history and
detail. I am uniquely qualified to tackle the subject, as my father, Alex
Palmer, is the inventor, artist and designer who created Jumble-Fits and Cluster
Puzzles in the early 1960s.
These creative and unique "puzzles with every piece a picture" were first produced and marketed by my father under his Tek Method Company name in 1964. The Cadaco Company began marketing the products in 1966. Dad created the six small puzzles titled Animals, Figments, Sports, Make-Up, Doodles and Whimsies and one large "Unlikely Story" puzzle titled "The Amazing Discovery of Alec Zandimer Plerp". The puzzles were challenging enough to assemble that each was supplied with a humorous "Hint Card".
The fifty-page, all-color book contains two parts. The first is the story of Cluster Puzzle development and evolution. The story includes brief background on my father, tales of my family packaging and marketing Cluster Puzzles from our home prior to the Cadaco company involvement, insight into how each puzzle theme came about, detail of the Cadaco years and the eventual demise of the products.
The second part is a technical guide to Cluster Puzzles including detailed descriptions and photos of the various versions of puzzle packaging, quality color reproductions of all the puzzle artworks and hint cards, unit production estimates, vintage trade advertising examples, purchasing tips and more.
More below
The Amazing Discovery of Alec Zandimer Plerp
Here are pristine examples of the last, largest and rarest Cluster Puzzle created. Titled "Unlikely Story NO.1: The Amazing Discovery of Alec Zandimer Plerp" and sold by Cadaco in 1967, this puzzle was later marketed in small numbers by my father directly. It assembles to nearly twice the size of the original six smaller Cluster Puzzles and contains 48 pieces. The "hint card" reads in the form of a continuous story, differing from the style of previous Cluster Puzzles in the series. These ARE NOT reproductions or reissues. The puzzle pieces, story card and labeling are all "new old stock" manufactured in the 1960s. The cartoon character graphics and color quality are amazing. Only limited numbers of these original materials still exist.

We have had an unbelievable lot of fun and effort, but now we are ready.
We are really exited to present our latest project to you.

It is available as free download for everyone as a contribution to the community.
We do hope that you will like it as we do.
Again it is a joined project of Immi and Apfelbluete, which has been
worked out and aligned via emails only. Feel free to let us know what you think about it.

elegant-impressions, would it be possibly for you to write instructions and I could translate them on google translate? If not I understand. I'm just considering making this for a wedding and wasn't sure if I'd be able to figure it out. :)
AMAZING dress by the way. :) Y'all are great. :)
Jan 2, 2011, 05.39 PMby elegant-impressions
Hi DixieQueen!
Sorry about the missing instructions but we are both women who are working in full time jobs. We are glad if you understand that we don't feel like writing instructions?!
Saw your etsy side – I am convinced you could figure it out, how to sew the dress! Try it, it is a simple basic dress pattern with this special collar and with cuffs.
There are some instructions to the elsa-pattern which is based on the same basic pattern – you could have a look!
Thanks for the compliments!

Interview With Chef and TV Star To-Be Andrea Curto-Randazzo, Part One
Categories: Chef Interviews
|So is she the Top Chef or not?
We sat down with Curto-Randazzo just before the 1,000-plus-seater Water Club opened (two weeks after she returned from filming Top Chef) to get the insider scoop. Looking cool and totally collected in jeans and a black T-shirt printed with a skull and bacon crossbones, she shared with us just how tough she and her family can be.
New Times: How do you describe Water Club?
Andrea Curto-Randazzo: It's ridiculously huge -- about 27,000 square feet. There's a huge pool, outside bar, boats can pull up here. Then there's the main dining room, wine room with about 2,000 wines -- huge screens outdoors...
Will it be like its predecessor at the site, Shooters?
I remember this as the old Shooters. It was always busy. This location was much more food-oriented than Fort Lauderdale, which was about drinking and partying. Fine dining is only a price point. You deserve the best food at that price.
So do you get the sense that the locals are looking forward to what Water Club is all about?
People who live around here are anxiously awaiting it. They say they used to come here all the time. I'm looking to take business away from Houston's.
What do you expect will be the menu highlights? Will fans of Talula be able to tell you two are in the kitchen?
We've got the best burger in town. And we have our lobster bisque. It isn't progressive, but a good lobster bisque is hard to find. We'll also have a lot of local fish [and] steaks on the high-end and low-end. Many entrees are less than $20.
Some dishes you'll see Frank and me in, like the crispy fried oysters with blackened corn salsa. This seems the perfect place to have it. And I insisted on microbrews.
And how will Talula stay afloat?
Talula is always my baby. We've held up for a really long time. A lot of my staff has been there from the beginning. They're awesome and they're loyal. And my sous chef has been there for, like, five years. Frank has been running around like a freak in my absence, between the catering company and here and Talula. But that's what he's good at.
How is it that you two work so well together?
We balance each other out. He's the numbers and business guy. And he's an awesome chef.
So why did you jump from fine dining with Talula to a monster space with a pool?
Something that happened with Talula that was frustrating when everything went in the shitter with the economy was that we became a "Happy Birthday!" restaurant -- an occasional thing. This is an everyday place. It will please everybody.
How can you logistically handle this place and Talula AND a catering company?
I don't know yet. We're just kinda "make it work" people. We can wear many hats. Frank is at the catering company more. He's grown that company since we bought it. We wanted to conquer this now.
What happened with Chef Chris Sepe who we reported was taking over Water Club's kitchen a while back?
I don't even know what happened with the other chef, honestly. I don't even know the guy.
[Editor's note: Managing partner John Neilson explained that permitting issues caused numerous delays and, over time, the owners changed direction with regards to their priorities. Understandably the staff they originally hired couldn't wait for the delayed opening and he began to search for a new chef. Neilson recalled meeting Curto-Randazzo at Talula in 2007 and convinced her to become part of Water Club just a few months ago.]
On Monday, we'll cover her experience on Top Chef, thoughts on the Beastie Boys versus Travolta, and why she's got beef with green peppers and foam.

Okay now I'm impressed. Epic battery on the MAXX, promising battery-friendly specs, the 10MP shooter with the Moto X camera app so it's very close to that particular device. Great screen to phone ratio, no logo junk or unused space, kevlar build.

Zooey Deschanel Quotes
Love is individual to each person and I don't think you can define it before experiencing it because it isn't going to be the same for everybody. — Zooey Deschanel
I don't really like to go out very much. I'm not scandalous. I'm not, like, in this to be famous. I also find it so embarrassing when you read about people and it's like they were so trashed at Skybar and stumbling around. I don't want to be that person. That's just so embarrassing to have that written about you. — Zooey Deschanel
It's such an amazing feeling to look out and see all these people singing along to my melodies. Now that I've experienced what it's like to stand up there, I just can't imagine wanting to do anything else. — Zooey Deschanel
I love old music, old movies, screwball comedies, vintage clothes and basically I'm an old-fashioned gal. — Zooey Deschanel
I'm blessed with a lot of energy and stamina. I can't stand sitting still. I went to a spa once with my mom and I was like, 'Get me out of here!' — Zooey Deschanel
You have to keep reminding yourself it's not about money, because there is a lot of money to be made in this business if you're willing to do whatever. But that's not what I'm thinking about. I continue only to take movies because I love the script and because I really want to do it. — Zooey Deschanel

Note: Per Bangbros, there are no longer any download restrictions.
To understand all the info above, check out our Site Facts Glossary.
Grades have no direct impact on the overall score.
Bangbros Network has been around for more than a decade and they have a huge collection of exclusive hardcore reality-style porn. These guys were probably best known for BangBus which was one of the leading sites in the reality porn craze from years back. The network has continued to grow with dozens of sites in the mix, thousands of total episodes, and updates are continually made on a daily basis. For this style of video episodes and reality style networks Bangbros has a lengthy track record and quite an archive of content.
Network of Exclusive Hardcore Reality/Video Content, Fun Stuff.
Bangbros was one of the leaders of the reality porn craze but their network incorporates that style of content along with more straightforward hardcore themes. It's a network that covers hardcore, BJs, amateur, milfs, big dick, anal, and other popular themes along with more specialty niches like gloryhole and party/CFNM. It's just a fun crazy database of porn that is all exclusive.
Huge Collection, These Guys Have Been at it for Years.
There are thousands of total episodes here reaching back to 2001-02 when they got some of their sites going. The largest of the bunch included BangBus, Monsters of Cock, MILF Lessons, MILF Soup, Ass Parade, Big Tit Cream Pie and Big Mouthfuls. Each of those is well into the hundreds of scenes. Sheer amount of content is one of the network's best attributes.
Several Years of HD Videos, Solid Download/Stream Options.
Essentially these guys got specs upgraded to HD in 2009 so the content since then features MP4 HD 1280x720. They also have standard-def in that format along with a standard WMV for download and an in-browser Flash player. All of these have full-episode files and clip segments. The Flash player has a nice preview box that pops up when you mouse-over the status bar. Download speeds have always been high for me with this company whenever I've looked at their sites.
Continues to Update Daily, All Scenes are Date-Stamped.
The network hub has a recent updates page and they add two or three new episodes daily. Across the network as a whole all the episodes are date-stamped which is quite useful since the content spans more than ten years.
Other Good Stuff:
Some Sites are Small and/or Are No Longer Updating.
The network has its better site that have hundreds of scenes along and then there are some mid-range ones with around 50-150 episodes along with some less impressive sites that never really got going. There are some with just a dozen or two scenes or even less. The updates do vary from site to site with a good number being in-active without any additions in some time.
Video Quality Varies, Lower Level Older Scenes.
Heading back into the archives the older content here from before they went to HD has just standard specs available. This constitutes a significant chunk of the content since they were around for a number of years before the high-def upgrade. Movies here are more like 852x480 or 640x480.
Limited Trial & Ads, Lots to Pay Attention to on Pricing.
Aside from the basic monthly recurring membership there are quite a number of items to note on the pricing. The trial is limited access and there are some cross-sells on the join page. The member's area is also pretty packed with ads for other sites, personals, cams, etc.
Minor Negatives:
Bangbros is a network that is full of exclusive crazy video/reality porn.
Bangbros on par with the better networks when it comes to their content database, exclusivity, and entertainment value. They really have a wide range of content that is downright fun. The network itself does have both individual site browsing and network-wide tools but the main drawback here is the fact that there are a lot of upsells and ads that start from the limited trial and cross-sells and continue on thru the member's area pages. It's not as easy to just enjoy the content since you have to keep part of your focus on those items whether you are or aren't interested in them.

It's shaping up as a classic primary showdown: the Snooze versus the Shmooze.
Holtzman, of course, insists there are vast differences between himself and Beauprez. He sees himself as engaged in a battle for the soul of the party, an effort to rescue it from a leadership that's "become detached from reality" and drifted from the "core values and principles" of conservatism. The effort has cost him considerable political capital, but he rejects the notion that he's some kind of spoiler in the race.
"Our problem is with a very small slice of the senior leadership of the party," he says. "I'm not the anointed candidate, but I'm not anti-establishment, either. Every time I have a chance to appear on an equal platform, we prevail. I'm the only candidate in this race talking about issues and ideas, and that's what people want to hear."
Running for statewide office as a dark horse requires bold thinking. Some mavericks rent billboards or saturate the airwaves. Holtzman bought a jumbo-sized recreational vehicle, put his name in big letters on the side and hit the road.
A staffer estimates that the team has put close to 80,000 miles on the Marc 2006 RV in the past year. Holtzman has visited all 64 counties in the state, many of them several times, pressing the flesh at county fairs and backyard barbecues. He's spent more than two months in El Paso County alone, wooing the heart of the state's conservative hardliners.
The road show has drawn both accolades and ridicule. "When you go into small towns like Yuma or Cortez, everybody in town knows you're there," Holtzman enthuses. "We're building enough of a critical mass in our campaign that everywhere we go, we're getting people honking, thumbs up out the window."
He pauses. "We've had a few of the other kind [of hand gestures] as well, but that goes with the territory."
For several months, Holtzman kept a blog of his travels on his website; he says he hasn't had time to update the entries lately. But he doesn't regret the mileage.
"I think it's made me a better candidate," he explains. "I've stayed in a lot of people's homes, and that last hour before lights out, you really learn a lot about what's on people's minds, what they expect from government."
This grassroots, man-of-the-people theme is sounded repeatedly in Holtzman's campaign. His official bio says he was "born in the blue-collar coal country of northeastern Pennsylvania" and saved $25 "from his after-school job selling cameras" to pledge to Reagan's 1976 campaign. Omitted is any mention of Holtzman's affluent background or that his after-school job involved purchasing a million dollars' worth of cameras a year as a buyer for Jewelcor, his dad's national catalogue business. The candidate may be a man of some people -- the kind of people who have a condo in Cherry Creek and a 6,500-square-foot second home in Carbondale -- but he's hardly Everyman.
However inevitable it might be as a piece of strategy, the populist approach seems an ill-fitting choice for Holtzman. What's striking about his precocious rise to White House insider and subsequent successes is his willingness to pursue his own passions and hunches, regardless of the kind of grief he might get from others. How else do you explain a sixteen-year-old Jewish kid, the spawn of Hubert Humphrey Democrats, becoming so obsessed with Ronald Reagan that he campaigned door-to-door for him?
Reagan and his inner circle soon realized that Holtzman was, indeed, a remarkable guy. The 1976 campaign fizzled, but Holtzman became a pen pal of the future president. In 1977 he persuaded his father to hire Reagan to speak at a catalogue-showroom trade show in Chicago, for the modest sum of $5,000. He picked up his idol at O'Hare, and he still recalls the gate number (F6) and other minutiae from that historic meeting: "He was the first one off the plane. I remember grabbing his briefcase, and he carried his carry-on bag."
After that, Reagan chartered Holtzman's father's plane when he was in Pennsylvania, and Marc often went along for the ride. By the time he was twenty, Holtzman was running Reagan's Pennsylvania campaign. After the election, he moved to Washington and began fetching pizza for the future Cabinet. By the time he was 24, he was the executive director of Citizens for America, a conservative lobbying group, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Joe Coors and grabbing photo ops with the Gipper. "Who's that older man shaking hands with Marc Holtzman?" teased a headline in the Washington Times. A 1986 Rolling Stone profile, "Revenge of the Nerd," depicted him as the geekiest of all the young Reaganites.
By then, Holtzman had already made his first stab at running for office himself, seeking a congressional seat in his home district of Kingston, Pennsylvania, a Democratic stronghold. Despite raising a million dollars, he was trounced by a 2-1 margin. He went to work for one of his father's companies, at a time when the catalogue-showroom business was spiraling downward. (Jewelcor would file for bankruptcy a few months after Holtzman left in 1989.) But then he found his real calling in post-Communist Eastern Europe, forging deals between Western investors and Eastern entrepreneurs -- and reaping millions in the process.

Winnipeg, MB (SportsNetwork.com) - Paul Maurice's coaching debut with Winnipeg was a successful one as the Jets took a 5-1 victory over the Phoenix Coyotes on Monday.
Following a season-worst fifth-straight loss, a 6-3 decision against Columbus on Saturday, Winnipeg fired head coach Claude Noel on Sunday and replaced him with Maurice, who hadn't coached in the NHL since getting fired by Carolina in November of 2011.
"I think we did a good job of being ready to play tonight," said Winnipeg winger Andrew Ladd. "We have some more work to do in getting down his system that he wants us to play, but we have plenty of time to get it going and make a push for the playoffs."
Olli Jokinen, Blake Wheeler, Devin Setoguchi, Eric O'Dell and Michael Frolik all scored for the Jets, who got 18 stops from Ondrej Pavelec.
Oliver-Ekman Larsson scored the only goal of the game for the Coyotes, who have dropped five of six. Mike Smith allowed all five goals on 38 shots.
"You can start anywhere and we have to show improvement," said Phoenix head coach Dave Tippett. "Our goalies have to do better, our defense has to be better and our top forwards have to do better, it's as simple as that."
Ekman-Larsson scored on the power play at 12:16 of the first to get Phoenix on the board, but Jokinen lit the lamp 36 seconds later to tie the game and send the hosts on a winning course.
The Jets went up for good at the 18-minute mark of the first, as O'Dell beat Smith with a quick snap shot from the slot after grabbing a loose puck.
"Our compete level and energy level of our group," said Maurice. "They did the one thing we had talked about that when adversity came to the doorstep that next goal was huge. The bench didn't get quiet, we stayed positive and that's the start of the foundation of handing adversity over the course of the game and sticking with it."
It was a 3-1 game at 8:49 of the second as Mark Scheifele threw a shot on net from the right boards that was stopped, but Wheeler was in front to tuck in the rebound.
Winnipeg took a 4-1 lead at 4:18 of the third after Frolik's wrister from the left circle fooled Smith, and Setoguchi scored on the power play near the midway point to cap the scoring in the game.

The Top 10 Leadership Articles of 2012
Well, 2012 is officially in the books. As we make editorial plans for the coming year, we were curious: what Leadership Journal articles resonated with readers in 2012? We've listed our Top 10 most-viewed articles below. Here are some themes that emerged:
As always, first-person stories from pastors (#1, #7, #10) were popular. We had pastors getting busted at Mass, befriending pariahs, and pastoring lesbians. These leaders shared the lessons they learned in unusual circumstances, and readers took notice.
A couple of practical teaching articles also cracked the top 10, including articles on the LJ themes of transformation (#4) and outreach (#8).
Pieces from our spiritual warfare issue were also popular, with "Removing the Demonic" (#3) landing high on the list.
Which is your favorite? Take a look below and let us know in the comments.
Without further ado, our top 10 …
#10: Busted at Mass by Gordon Dalbey. What I learned after getting caught crashing Catholic mass.
#9: Seven Habits of Highly Ineffective Leaders by Steven James.Time-tested practices to ensure complete and utter failure.
#8: The Soul of Steve Jobs by Gordon MacDonald. What would it have taken to reach the Apple founder's core?
#7: When Clean and Unclean Touch by Mark Buchanan. Jesus' revolutionary reversal puts transformation within reach.
#6: Why Men Still Hate Going to Church. LJ Managing Editor Drew Dyck interviews David Murrow.
#5: The 5 Comments Preachers Hate Most by John Ortberg. Dealing with post-sermon remarks.
#4: How to Spot a Transformed Christian by Gordon MacDonald. 12 outward signs of the inner reality
#3: Removing Demonic Oppression by Karl Payne.
Steps to freeing those under the unwanted influence.
#2: Christian Denominations are like NFL Teams by Ben Howard. If you don't have a sense of humor, then please don't read the following post (Out of Ur post).
#1: Going to Hell with Ted Haggard by Michael Cheshire. What I learned about grace and redemption through my friendship with a Christian pariah. (This is the most read and shared article in Leadership's history!)

This is who you call to hash out a problem. She'll stay on the phone with you for hours, exploring every angle of a situation (what exactly did he mean when he said that), offering reassurances and just listening when you need to vent.
"This type of friend is like a safety net," says Hylen. "She will catch all of the frustrations or worries that you need to vent about without letting it cause any damage to your other relationships." Just be mindful to give her a chance to talk, or she might end up feeling like you're getting free therapy!

The Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association was pleased to
host the 31st Annual Cuyahoga District and Regional Competitions for teams from
Northeast Ohio in 2014.
Each year volunteer judges and attorneys serve
as competition judicial panelists. At this done-in-a-day volunteer
opportunity, volunteers have the chance to observe the region's finest budding
legal minds in an exciting afternoon of competition. The fictional case in
2014 involved alleged violations of students' First and Fourth Amendment rights
by high school officials in response to student protests over the corporate
naming of the school's football field.
The Ohio Mock Trial Cuyahoga
District Competition was held on Friday, Jan. 31 and the Regional Competition
was held on Feb. 21. Over 360 students from 16 high schools (36 teams total)
participated in two exciting days of competition, with the help of 61
volunteer judicial panelists.
Special congratulations to Orange High
School, whose Team DaVinci finished second statewide in the State Tournament
held March 6-8 in Columbus! Congratulations as well to Team Roberts from Solon High
School, which made it to the final four. Click
here to view a video of the final championship round, featuring Cuyahoga
County's own Orange High School Team DaVinci versus the state champions from
Sylvania Southview High School. For photos of all participating teams and of the
volunteer judicial panelists, please visit the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar
Foundation's Facebook page at www.facebook.com/CleMetroBarFoundation.
This is Ohio's largest academic competition and Cuyahoga County high
school participation is strong – with the help of volunteers from the legal
community in 2013, over 450 students representing 18 local high schools were
provided the opportunity to hone their communication, analytical, and
courtroom skills. Students are judged on their understanding of the case
facts and applicable law, the roles of the attorney and witnesses at trial,
and courtroom procedures and decorum. 74 volunteer judicial panelists –
judges, magistrates, and attorneys from Cuyahoga and Lake Counties – presided
over the trials and scored the events in 2013.
The Ohio Mock Trial
program is conducted under the auspices of the Ohio Center for Law Related Education (OCLRE).
The OCLRE is sponsored by the Supreme Court of Ohio, the Ohio State Bar
Association, Attorney General's Office and ACLU Foundation of Ohio. The
Cuyahoga District and Regional Competitions are sponsored by the Cleveland
Metropolitan Bar Association, with funding support from the Cleveland
Metropolitan Bar Foundation. Want to know what it's like to
volunteer? Click
here for the January 2013 Bar Journal article featuring friends of the
program sharing their experiences.
Thank you to the more than 70 volunteer judges, magistrates, and
attorneys who helped make this program a success for the students who worked
so hard in preparation in 2013. We were proud to host over 450 students
representing 18 high schools in Cuyahoga, Lake, and Summit
Counties. The fictional case asked whether a student under suspicion of arson
and murder was improperly interrogated and detained during the police's
investigation in violation of the student's 5th and 14th Amendment rights.
The Cuyahoga District Competition was held at the Justice Center on February
8, 2013 while the Cuyahoga Regional Competition was held at the Cuyahoga
County Courthouse on February 22, 2013.
Congratulations to the
following teams that advanced from the Cuyahoga Regional Competition to the
State Tournament!

Last week, frog took part in Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, the world's largest gathering of the telecom industry (with a record 70,000 attendees this year) and an increasingly important forum for everything that falls under the rubric "Connected World."
By frog - February 23, 2012
frog will of course be at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona again this year, and we are hosting a variety of events ourselves both at the main site and at the Hotel Arts, all of which promise to be thought provoking, insightful, fun, and often including libations.
By Shrikant Latkar - February 22, 2011
The first thing I experienced when I got out of the airport in Barcelona was Huawei. They had a booth/stall in the airport, as well as huge participation in the show overall. They even had a remarkable size structure that looked like an airplane hanger, which was completely cordoned off and was accessible only to people who had registered with Huawei. I wonder how many millions they spent this time...
By Adam Richardson - February 16, 2011
If the jam-packed Android booth at Mobile World Congress, the ubiquity of the robot logo, and the line of people queuing up 2 hours ahead of Erik Schmidt's (swan song) keynote, then the answer is "yes." The booth actually had a nice vibe to it; though it was crowded, it was also quite easy going and people were enjoying themselves. There was a nice smoothie bar making interesting flavored drinks named after Android releases (Honeycomb, etc.). The entire space was really focused on app and hardware partners showing off their wares (all wearing matching t-shirts no doubt provided by Google - take that fragmentation!)

The message on the second day of Mobile World Congress from the heads of AT&T, Vodafone, Telefonica, China Mobile and American Movil was unambiguous: competition, open-ness and cross-carrier interoperability are what is needed to take mobile to the next level.

Legendary Chicago sportswriter Bill Jauss dies at 81
BY TONI GINNETTI firstname.lastname@example.com October 10, 2012 1:20PM
Longtime Chicago Tribune sportswriter Bill Jauss died on Wednesday. He was 81.
Updated: October 10, 2012 10:50PM
Bill Jauss was a Chicago legend as a sportswriter, but television made him a national icon, known from coast to coast as one of ``The Sportswriters on TV,'' a group of seasoned experts who gathered at a table to talk sports as if it were the local tavern. It was the first show of its kind and one that spawned the era of sports talk television.
Cigar smoke would fill the room, though Jauss was one who distained it. A beer and lively conversation were more his style.
Jauss died Wednesday morning at his Wilmette home at the age of 81. He had been battling declining health in recent months.
Jauss was an institution in Chicago sports, chronicling the history of wins and losses, the greats and not-so-greats, from prep sports to the elite ranks of the pros. He was an award-winning journalist, but his real heroes were the everyday people who were his readers.
``Never forget the people you are writing for,'' he would remind reporters and editors, young and old. And he would never shy away from engaging in conversation with anyone and everyone who would recognize him. He often said he preferred their viewpoints to those of the ``sports experts.''
Jauss was a graduate of Northwestern University where he played football and later would become a teacher in their school of journalism. He married his wife, Kenmar, in 1953 and spent the Korean War years stationed in Augustana, Georgia. His first newspaper job after the war was at a small newspaper in Neenah, Wisconsin. He came to Chicago in 1955 where he would spend the next five decades working at three of the city's major daily newspapers.
He began at the Chicago Daily News and worked there until the paper's demise in 1977. He went on to the Chicago Today, and then went to the Chicago Tribune after the Today folded.
``Bill spoke for Joe and Jane Six-Pack but he'd sell himself short,'' said Sun Times columnist Rick Telander, a longtime friend and ``Sportswriters'' colleague. ``He spoke for everyone with a heart.''
He covered every major sport, every championship from Loyola's 1963 NCAA national title to the Bears, Bulls, Cubs and White Sox successes, and knew the nation's major sports figures by their first names.
``Bill covered every assignment, whether it was a Cubs or Sox game or a high school baseball game, with the same professionalism,'' former Tribune sports editor Dan McGrath said. ``I remember the obituary he wrote for George Ireland, the legendary coach at Loyola, and how the central point was what a pioneer George was in starting four African-American players on his team in Chicago in 1963 [the national championship]. It was so powerful and I nominated it for awards.
``When he would hold our annual prep awards banquets and Bill was the speaker, I remember how he went to each of the parents to make sure he would pronounce the names of their children right,'' McGrath said.
``My father-in-law was a devoted follower of ``The Sportswriters on TV'' and he once asked me, `is Bill Jauss as good a guy as he seems?' Of course, he was even better.''
Jauss is survived by his three children, Virginia, David and James, and five grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held Monday at 4 p.m. at the First Presbyterian Church of Wilmette, 600 Ninth Street, Wilmette. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the First Presbyterian Church of Wilmette Memorial Fund.

Apple's CEO is disputing assertions by a Senate panel that the company avoids billions of dollars in US taxes by shifting profits to foreign affiliates.
Tim Cook testified at a hearing on Tuesday by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, which released a damning report on Monday on Apple's tax practices.
"We pay all the taxes we owe – every single dollar," Cook said. "We don't depend on tax gimmicks."
Cook, who is more accustomed to commanding a stage in front of investors and techies than facing a congressional committee, took a defensive tone with his opening statement.
"We don't move our money from our foreign subsidiaries to fund our US business in order to skirt the repatriation tax," said Cook.
Phillip Bullock, Apple's head of tax operations testified that the company's subsidiary in Ireland, AOI, received 30 (b) billion US dollars over the last five years, but was not required to pay taxes on it in the United States.
The subcommittee's report estimates that Apple avoided at least 3.5 (b) billion dollars in US federal taxes in 2011 and 9 (b) billion in 2012 by using its tax strategy, and described a complex setup involving Irish subsidiaries as being a key element of this strategy.
But Cook said the Irish subsidiaries don't reduce the company's US taxes at all. Rather, they manage cash earned overseas. If that cash were to be repatriated to the US, it would be subject to US taxes.
Like other multinationals, Apple chooses to keep cash overseas so as not to pay the 35 percent US corporate tax rate. Apple is holding 102 (b) billion of its total 145 billion dollars in cash overseas.
Cook reaffirmed Apple's position that given current US tax rates, it has no intention of repatriating its overseas profits to the US.
Senator Carl Levin, a Michigan Democrat and the panel's chairman, said Apple's use of loopholes in the US tax code is unique among multinational corporations.
Apple uses five companies located in Ireland to carry out its tax strategy, according to the report.
The companies are located at the same address in Cork, Ireland, and they share members of their boards of directors.
While all five companies were incorporated in Ireland, only two of them also have tax residency in that country.
That means the other three aren't legally required to pay taxes in Ireland because they aren't managed or controlled in that country, in Apple's view.
The report says Apple capitalises on a difference between US and Irish rules regarding tax residency.
In Ireland, a company must be managed and controlled in the country to be a tax resident.
Under US law, a company is a tax resident of the country in which it was established. Therefore, the Apple companies aren't tax residents of Ireland nor of the US, since they weren't incorporated in the US, in Apple's view.
The spotlight on Apple's tax strategy comes at a time of fevered debate in Washington over whether and how to raise revenues to help reduce the federal deficit.
Many Democrats complain that the government is missing out on billions of dollars because companies are stashing profits abroad and avoiding taxes.
Republicans want to cut the corporate tax rate of 35 percent and ease the tax burden on money that US companies make abroad.
They say the move would encourage companies to invest at home.

Hugh Pickens writes "The LA Times reports that Rick Santorum defended his robocalls urging Democrats in Michigan to vote in today's critical primary, a tactic that has come under withering criticism from rival Mitt Romney as a 'terrible dirty trick' and a 'new low for his campaign.' Santorum says he reached out to Democratic voters, who can vote in the primary, to show that 'we can attract voters we need to win states like Michigan,' and noted that the former Massachusetts governor has wooed Democrats in the past and used Santorum's own words endorsing him in the 2008 race on a robocall of his own. 'I didn't complain about it. I don't complain. You know what, I'm a big guy. I can take it.' Romney crossed party lines himself to vote for Paul Tsongas in the 1992 Democratic primary over Bill Clinton in order to cause mischief for the general election. 'In Massachusetts, if you register as an independent, you can vote in either the Republican or Democratic primary,' said Romney, who until he made an unsuccessful run for Senate in 1994 had spent his adult life as a registered independent."

The Eat Like a Man Guide to Extreme Grilling
Eight fantastic new recipes from some of America's best chefs when it comes to a slightly more adventurous cookout this summer. Or whenever, really. Plus: great beers to cool off with this summer.
By Elizabeth Gunnison
As the Fourth of July weekend arrives, you may already be mulling plans that involve you, a pair of tongs, and a more-or-less endless supply of icy-cold ones. We support that, and because we support that, we would like to issue a gentle reminder that your grill can be much more than a steak-and-burger delivery mechanism. Why not make your guests something a little different from the same patties, dogs, and pasta salad this year? Hell, why not put the salad on the grill? There's no time like the present to push the boundaries of your outdoor-cooking routine. We've assembled eight chefs from around the country to show you how. Herein, they share some novel recipes for the grill, from pickles and pizza to that salad (don't worry, it has smoked cod in it). God bless America, indeed.

In the past few years Herb had developed his own site, massapequastories.com in an effort to capture the history of the Massapequa School District through the eyes of the men and women who built it. Herb needed my help in the beginning but once he figured things out there was no stopping him. All of us at the Hall of Fame will miss him dearly

Massapequa educator Pluschau dies at 82
Originally published: June 20, 2012 9:39 PM
Updated: June 20, 2012 9:51 PM
By MARINA VILLENEUVE firstname.lastname@example.com
Herbert J. Pluschau believed so much in the power of education to change society that he became a teacher, serving in almost every position in the Massapequa school district.
Pluschau, who rose from substitute teacher to superintendent in the hamlet, died Monday at St. Joseph Hospital in Bethpage of complications from a stroke. He was 82.
"He loved Massapequa," his daughter Christine Pluschau Cone of Marietta, Ga., said. "I don't understand loving a town. But he loved Massapequa."
Massapequa High School's hall of fame honored Pluschau in 1994 for his decades of service. "It was really unusual for someone to span their whole career in one district," Cone said.
Pluschau stayed active after he retired in 1988. Developing a passion for searching for Massapequa High alumni, he served as president of the hall of fame and organized its annual golf outing charity event, Cone said.
The son of German immigrants, Pluschau was born in Brooklyn and raised in Maspeth, Queens. He played basketball at Grover Cleveland High School, from which he graduated in 1948. He earned his bachelor's degree in education in 1952 from the State University of New York at Brockport. In 1963, he earned his master's degree in education from Hofstra University.
"He wanted to be a teacher because his mother wanted him to be a lawyer, and he never did what his mother wanted," Cone kidded.
In February 1953, Pluschau was hired as a substitute at Massapequa, and in 1956 he bought the house in the hamlet in which his wife of 60 years, Carol, still lives.
"He was hard working, he was dedicated," said his daughter. "It's just amazing how many lives he's touched. He has more Facebook friends than I do. He's a special man."
Pluschau enjoyed his role as one of the school's first physical education teachers and later, as a varsity basketball coach. "He's still in contact with a lot of the players, especially from the 1956 team," Cone said.
For the classes of 1958-1962, Pluschau served as guidance counselor; and he was vice principal from 1962 to 1967. He later served as a district administrative assistant, assistant superintendent, deputy superintendent and finally, superintendent of schools, beginning in 1982.
Pluschau received commendations from the U.S. House of Representatives, New York State Senate, Town o fOyster Bay, Village of Massapequa Park, Massapequa Board of Education, Massapequa Parent-Teachers Association and the Massapequa Federation of Teachers.
Services are planned Saturday at 10:30 a.m. at Grace Episcopal Church with interment at Grace Cemetery, Massapequa.

Emergent Design: The Evolutionary Nature of Professional Software Development
How much design is enough design in software? We know that software which lacks a coherent design can be extremely difficult to maintain, extend, scale, and reuse. We also know that software which is over-designed becomes excessively complex, and as a result is just as hard to work with. The concept of emergence in design is based on the critical principles, practices, and disciplines that remove the risks and waste associated with changing a design as needed, and thus removes the motivation for overdesign in the first place. This seminar will introduce these concepts, and provide a brief demonstration of design emergence through system evolution.

The term "
" is based on the Latin
, which means "past." Preterism understands certain eschatological passages which are yet future as having
already been fulfilled
. All biblical interpreters understand that certain
prophecies have been fulfilled, but preterists differ in that they
interpret a greater portion of Scripture as already having come to pass. There are different
types of preterism resulting from differences in views as to which passages have been fulfilled and what events they were "fulfilled" by.
