5 Ugliest Blackout Situations in the NFL
San Diego Chargers
Number of blackouts: Four
Ownership wants a new stadium, taxpayers don't want to pay for it.
That's what it boils down to in San Diego, where a Chargers team that sold out 48 straight games through 2010 now blacks out home games annually. The Spanos family of owners has threatened to move the team to Escondido, Chula Vista or, more seriously, Los Angeles and has made it clear they'll go wherever they can get a new stadium and a shot at hosting the Super Bowl.
San Diego voters, meanwhile, have responded by electing former U.S. Rep. Bob Filner as the city's mayor after he vowed not to publicly subsidize a new Chargers stadium. His thoughts on the matter during the campaign were fairly clear. "Enough of the extortion from our sports teams, whether they be the Padres or the Chargers," he said at the time.
The team hasn't done a whole lot to combat Filner's "extortion" claims either. The Chargers just finished their first losing seson since 2003 and, just before their last blacked-out game, tried to sell tickets on Groupon (GRPN) for a whopping $8 less than their $72 face value. It's getting ugly in a hurry for the Chargers, who just seem to be counting the days until they can pack up the trucks and take I-5 North to their new major-market home.Oakland Raiders
Number of blackouts: One
The other team in the Los Angeles sweepstakes is no stranger to either blackouts or stadium squabbles. The Raiders tried Los Angeles once before, but headed back to Oakland in the mid-1990s. Since then, Raiders fans have dealt with dozens of home-game blackouts that made the Oakland Coliseum a black hole for its stadium of painted crazies and television screens across the area. The Raiders' lease at O.co Coliseum ends next year, which has given management an excuse to go house hunting. The team considered joining the 49ers at their new stadium in Santa Clara and weighed building a stadium in Dublin, Calif. But new owner Mark Davis is invested in Oakland and even accepted the 85% attendance threshold for lockouts.

Heartland Recreational Vehicles LLC v. Forest River Inc
Filing 125
MOTION for Extension of Time to File Expert Report on Financial Issues by Defendant Forest River Inc. (Attachments: # 1 Affidavit Rule 37 Certificate)(Fountain, Ryan)
Heartland Recreational Vehicles LLC v. Forest River Inc Doc. 125 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT Northern District of Indiana South Bend Division HEARTLAND RECREATIONAL VEHICLES, LLC, Plaintiff, v. FOREST RIVER, INC., Defendant. ) ) ) ) CASE NO.:3:08-cv-490 ) ) ) JURY DEMAND FOREST RIVER'S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME FOR FILING ITS EXPERT REPORT ON FINANCIAL ISSUES Forest River requests a two week extension of time in which to file its expert's report on financial issues in this case. That report was due to be filed today and would be due on October 15, 2010 if this motion is granted. This motion is opposed by Heartland. A proposed form of Order is forwarded to chambers concurrently herewith. Background Facts of the Case: On October 22-23, 2008, Forest River held a private trade show for specially invited RV dealers next to Forest River's corporate offices in Elkhart, IN. Forest River arranged for hotel accommodations, etc. for those RV dealers at its own expense in Mishawaka, IN while those RV dealers were at the show. Incident to preparations for this trade show, Forest River created and periodically updated a Master List having a compilation of information therein, such as the identity of which dealerships would be attending and which specific hotels each dealer representatives would be staying at. 1 Dockets.Justia.com Approximately two weeks before that trade show, Heartland obtained a copy of the Master List by deliberate and calculated deception.1 Heartland used that list to contact RV dealers identified on the list to attempt to disrupt the trade show and to take RV sales away from Forest River. Heartland also used that list to engage in the "Hotel Action" previously referred to in this lawsuit. In addition to causing pecuniary loss to Forest River, Heartland was unjustly enriched by obtaining and using the Master List. Forest River's expert witness with respect to financial issues is Christine Lauber. The primary focus of Ms. Lauber's report is measurement of the economic impact of Heartland's use of the Master List. There are several different measures available for that purpose, but one that is presently the focus of discovery issues between the parties stems from 15 U.S.C. §1117(a). Briefly, Forest River asserts that the proper way to determine Heartland's "profit" from using the Master List is to add up all of the RV sales Heartland obtained from using the list and then subtract all of the RV manufacturing expenses that Heartland incurred in manufacturing only the extra RVs it sold as a result of using the Master List (these are referred to as "marginal incremental costs" in accounting). Forest River would not allow Heartland to deduct those expenses which Heartland would have incurred anyway even if Heartland had not taken the list (these are referred to as "fixed costs" in accounting). Forest River would also not allow Heartland to deduct those "expenses" which are in reality "constructive dividends" to the shareholders of Heartland.2 In contrast, Heartland asserts that More specific details of this deception are set forth in the Complaint of Case No: 3:10cv-409 of this Court. That lawsuit was filed to encompass the issues raised by information discovered about the events of October, 2008 since the present lawsuit began, and it is Forest River's intention to consolidate at least that case and this case into a single proceeding. A constructive dividend is a payment to a shareholder that is made in excess of fair market value as a way to disguise distribution of profits. For example, if shareholder "rents" the 2 2 1 it is entitled to deduct from the sales revenue what it considers to be its "normal" expenses amortized over all RV products - in effect making Forest River share the burden of Heartland's manufacturing overhead. Heartland also denies that it has made any constructive dividend payments to its shareholders so that no allowance should be made for not deducting its hidden profits. Background Fact of the Discovery Process: Forest River has long sought the documents needed to determine Heartland's marginal incremental costs for the extra RVs it sold via use of the Master List. For example, on July 1, 2009, Forest River served the following document request on Heartland: Request No. 26: Forest River will be seeking damages under 15 USC. §1117(a) for the total of Heartland's sales obtained as a result of the "hotel action" referred to in ¶79 of the Amended Answer in this case. Unless Heartland stipulates that it will not seek to reduce that damage amount by claiming any allowable costs or other deductions, provide all documents sufficient to: a. indicate the amount of the cost or deduction to be claimed by Heartland, b. indicate when that cost or deduction occurred, and c. describe in full the nature of the cost or deduction. Heartland refused to provide the items requested at that time. Forest River was forced to then file a motion to compel (Doc. No. 96). That motion was granted and on March 31, 2010 this Court land a business is using back to the business, but then charges an amount far greater than the normal rental fee to the business. Constructive dividends are, for example, used to avoid double taxation - the business would normally be taxed on its profits, and then the shareholder would be individually taxed on the dividends the business pays after taxes. 3 Ordered Heartland to produce the documents (Doc. No. 112). Heartland produced bits and pieces of documents related to what was ordered over July and late August 2010, but never the full amount of what was required. Further, and once again, some of what Heartland produced was mutually contradictory with other documents,3 which required Forest River to seek reconciliation documents as well. In the meantime, Forest River served supplemental and more focused discovery requests, such as: Request No. 45: To the extent not previously requested from Heartland, documents sufficient to show the nature and amount of the actual expenses incurred as "Manufacturing Expense," "Selling Expense," and "General & Administrative Expense" for each of the monthly periods of time referred to in document Heartland/FR 0005114 under tab "MfgSelling-Admin." Heartland's response was due on August 2, 2010. In response, it provided none of the documents requested. Also, on August 20, 2010, Forest River served an additional and very focused set of discovery requests to get this marginal incremental vs. fixed cost information, including for example: Request No. 47: Except to the extent previously produced in this form, the Cost of Goods Sold Statement for RV trailers sold between August 1, 2008 and February 1, 2009 (or, if that was not prepared by Heartland in the normal course of business, all of those regularly kept business records from which that Cost of Goods Sold Statement can be accurately and 3 For example, Heartland provided some, but not all, of the actual RV invoices for the time periods in question. Those invoices stated the actual amount of the discounts given to RV dealers for the RV sale on the invoice. However, the monthly and quarterly "income statements" Heartland provided which supposedly summarize those invoices show the invoice discounts that Heartland gave to RV sales at less that 10% of what the invoices show. Which is accurate? 4 completely derived according to normal accounting practices), including the specific details of material costs, overhead costs, and labor for the actual trailers sold between those dates. Again, Heartland provide no documents in response. Forest River did not limit itself to "paper discovery." To get directly to the point on these accounting issues and get Ms. Lauber the information she needed, Forest River served a notice of deposition of Heartland under Fed. R. Civ. P. 30(b)(6) on July 19, 2010, asking for deposition on August 2, 2010 on the following topics: 1. The creation and content of the financial records of Heartland which have been provided to Forest River in this litigation. 2. Heartland's sales of products as a result of obtaining the list of Forest River dealers who were planning to attend the private Forest River trade show in October 2008, including the revenues received from such sales, the actual costs of producing those products, and the marginal profits obtained by Heartland from such sales ("marginal profits" meaning profits without allowance for costs or services which would have been incurred regardless of those specific sales). 3. The financial condition of Heartland during the fourth calender quarter of 2008 in comparison to its financial condition in the years immediately prior and following. 4. Heartland's accounting and financial record keeping practices during the fourth calendar quarter of 2008, including it criteria for selecting the amounts listed in its general ledger and financial reports. 5. Heartland's revenues received between August 1, 2008 and February 1, 2009, as well as actual cost of goods sold, actual fixed overhead expenses, actual inventory, actual 5 payments to related business entities having any common ownership interests, and actual marginal and net profits during that same time period. 6. Heartland's discounting practices during the fourth calendar quarter of 2008, including the criteria for and amount of discounts made to dealers at that time. 7. The amounts, if any, which Heartland is claiming as allowable deductions under 15 U.S.C. §1117(a) in this litigation incident to Forest River's Production Request No. 26, including the actual and specific basis for any such deductions and identification of all regularly kept business records which support any specific basis for such deductions. However, would not attend the deposition on that date, and the earliest date Heartland would agree to produce a witness was Friday, September 24, 2010, only one week before Ms Lauber's report was due to be filed. In an effort to move discovery forward as best it could, Forest River agreed to that late deposition date, conducted the deposition, discovered that Mr. Dennis Donet (Heartland's designated witness) was not prepared to discuss certain topics even after all that time to prepare. Of special disappointment was Mr. Donat's lack of information about the marginal profits. Nonetheless, Forest River paid for an expedited transcript of the deposition and attempted to resolve the discovery disputes as expeditiously as possible. For example, on Tuesday, September 28, 2010, the undersigned counsel sent the following email to David P. Irmscher, Heartland's counsel: Dave: [items omitted which are not relevant to this motion] 3. I have just recently received the transcripts for last week's depositions and will be reviewing them this week. I assume you are doing the same. As a result of what was revealed last week, Forest River is planning to file: a. A motion for contempt for Heartland's failure to comply with the Court's March 31 Order on discovery, 6 b. A motion to compel other discovery served upon Heartland since but not complied with, c. A motion to compel a Rule 30b6 witness for the second topic listed in the notice, d. A motion to consolidate discovery at least as to financial matters between the first and second lawsuits, and e. A motion to amend the pleadings to conform to the evidence disclosed thus far based upon the analysis presented in the attached draft Complaint and upon the admissions made by Denis last Friday as to predatory pricing. 4. As soon as you have gone through those deposition transcripts sufficiently, I would like to have a Rule 37 conference to see if we can reach agreement as to some of these motions. Please let me know when you are available to do so. Given the number of issues, I suggest we set aside at least an hour. 5. To assist in preparation for the Rule 37 conference, I have attached a copy of Chris Lauber's memo about the documents still needed. If you have any technical questions about this we should probably include Dennis and Chris in our conference so that perhaps they can sort out directly what documents will do the job most efficiently. [ items omitted which are not relevant to this motion] Ryan No response has been received to this email and no dates have been offered by Heartland for the Rule 37 conference. The substance of the memo of Ms. Lauber referred to in the email above which sets forth the need for the missing documents is set forth below: Reasons for needing additional information as requested Given: · Monthly Income Statements for period 07/26/08 to 08/01/09 · Sales of Units by product line without names of customers 07/19/08 to 04/04/09 These two items are not enough information to do a proper analysis for the following reasons: 1. To determine amount of sales that were stolen a. Requires that we have a sales ledger with customer names by product for the relevant period b. Requires historical sales by customer to distinguish regular customers sales volume from stolen sales 2. To determine value of stolen sales a. Requires knowledge of financial condition of the company and this is reflected in the Balance Sheet 7 b. Requires knowledge of financial constraints under which the company operates, therefore need to know loan covenants, working capital requirements as reflected in the borrowing base certificates. c. Requires knowledge of how cash was functioning in the operation and therefore the stresses from economic conditions, this is reflected in the Statement of Cash Flows. d. Requires knowledge of other obligations of the company that could use cash and therefore put pressure on sales, these items are reflected in the Balance Sheet and the Statement of Cash Flows. e. Requires knowledge of inventory levels, which is reflected in the Balance Sheet 3. To determine the value of marginal cost a. Requires clarity of manufacturing costs. Books are kept on the accrual basis and the income statement has revealed that some accruals were reversed, therefore need the Balance Sheets to apply the reversals retroactively to the correct time period. b. Requires accrual work papers to understand the timing of the expense so as to apply to the correct time period. c. Requires payroll records to determine difference between base pay and performance pay 4. To determine effect sales had on financial condition and valuation of the company a. Requires Balance Sheets b. Requires copies of any valuation studies done before, during and after period There has been no response back from Heartland with respect to Ms Lauber's memo either. Granted, Heartland may be preoccupied with its recent and widely publicized sale to Thor Industries, announced on September 17, 2010. Indeed, Forest River is concerned that Heartland may not even have possession of or title to the documents Forest River had previously requested any more. Forest River's email to Heartland's counsel of last Friday, September 24, 2010 on exactly that issue also remains unanswered, so perhaps Heartland itself does not even know if it currently has the documents or if Forest River must seek them from Thor Industries. The Merits of the Present Motion: Discovery in this case has been unusually slow, but the delay is not due to any fault of Forest 8 River. The expert report of Chris Lauber was planned well in advance, and Forest River requested all of the discovery it would need for that purpose. Forest River served those discovery requests in good time for Ms. Lauber to complete her analysis and prepared the report by the October 1, 2010 deadline. However, Heartland withheld much of that discovery until late in the game and failed to produce much of the discovery at all even now. The discovery disputes need to be resolved and the documents and testimony provided by Heartland in order for Ms. Lauber's report to be finished. At present, we do not even know when Heartland is willing to have a Rule 37 conference as to those disputes, but Forest River assumes that will be accomplished sometime early next week. Even though the undersigned counsel will be out of town all of next week, he stands ready to confer on those issue via telephone if Heartland is available. If that conference is successful and if the documents are provided to Ms Lauber next week, her report can be finished within the two week extension requested herein. Accordingly, there is good cause to grant this motion. Dated: October 1, 2010 Respectfully submitted, s/Ryan M. Fountain ___________________________ Ryan M.

Curnan is a professor of Social Policy and Management at the Heller School, Brandeis University, chair of the MBA and MPP concentrations in children, youth and families, and longtime Director of the Center for Youth and Communities, one of the nation's premier evaluation research and capacity building centers dedicated to preparing young people for education, work and life. A graduate of Yale University with advanced degrees in policy and management, Curnan joined the Brandeis faculty in 1983. Read more about Susan's work at the Heller School here.
Throughout her career, Professor Curnan has worked in all three sectors of society, with all states and commonwealths from Alaska to Puerto Rico, and in more than 200 communities in the USA; she has traveled to South Africa, Europe and Southeast Asia to consult on education, workforce development, management and policy issues.

Since he left the Trojans, Pete Carroll's reputation has taken, well, just a couple hits.
He's generally now considered just another college football cheat or, to believe his version of the truth, the most oblivious head coach in the history of the sport.
Today, we'd like to mark another fast-approaching milestone in Carroll's post-USC tenure, a milestone that, to him, probably feels more like a kidney stone.
Carroll's Seattle Seahawks lost to Dallas on Sunday, 23-13, dropping their record to 2-6.
Halfway through his second season in Seattle, Carroll's record is 9-15. During his nine seasons in Troy, the Trojans were 83-19 (post-sanctions).
So, unless the Seahawks turn things around dramatically, Carroll will lose more games in two Seattle seasons than he lost his whole time at USC.
Fight on, Pete.

Former meter aid faces charges for defrauding state
WATERBURY — A former city parking meter aid was arrested by state police this week after they claim she committed forgery and stole more than $33,000 in state assistance funds.
Christine L. Hancock, 36, was served with an arrest warrant at her Watertown home on Monday, but state police were unable to confirm the charges until Thursday.

text: Toro Rosso: We are progressing steadily from race to race 28 June, 2013 Team and drivers review the first day of the British Grand Prix weekend, Round 8 of the 2013 Formula 1 World Championship, at Silverstone. Daniel Ricciardo (STR8-04): First Practice Session Best lap: 1:54.249, pos. 1st, 10 laps Second Practice Session Best lap: 1:33.171, pos. 6th, 34 laps "I decided to do quite a few laps in the rain this morning, as I felt the track was safe enough and you can always learn something in those tricky conditions and I think it pleased the fans as well! This afternoon, we were pretty good in the dry, getting a good run on the Hard compound and improved further on the Medium. However, I had hoped our long run would be better, so we definitely have more work to do overnight, but generally a positive day." Jean-Eric Vergne (STR8-03): First Practice Session Best lap: 1:57.891, pos. 7th, 4 laps Second Practice Session Best lap: 1:33.290, pos. 7th, 38 laps "This afternoon, as soon as I left the garage, I could tell the car felt very good. It was easy to push and my lap times were good. That doesn't mean we're going to relax, far from it and we will be working hard tonight to look at all the data to see how we can improve. I feel we have a chance here to do well over the rest of the weekend. Coming to this track which is so different to the last two ones we have raced on, I would say today's performance has been a pleasant surprise." Laurent Mekies (Head of Vehicle Performance):"This has been another good Friday for us. The morning session was held in very wet conditions, but we still felt the need to go out on track to check the car in this situation: lately we have had quite a lot of running on Intermediates, but less so on Extremes, so it was a useful exercise. In the afternoon, we had to squeeze our programme to make up for the lost time in the morning. We had a few new aero parts to evaluate, as well as trying some changes on the mechanical side. We shared the workload between the two cars. The results from today would indicate we are progressing steadily in relative terms from race to race. Now we must study all the data, knowing we can expect rather different and drier conditions for the next two days, so tonight we will try and put everything together to continue to move forward tomorrow."

I needed a really large rug to go under my king size bed and wanted it to come out about 3 feet on all sides. I have hardwood floors and a really tall bed and I did not want my dogs doing splits everytime they jumped down. However, rugs the size I needed were really expensive. So I bought 3 of these and out them on all sides. They work great, are soft and attractive.
After reading all the terrific reviews, I decided to go with this carpet. I don't think it is all that great. It is not as fluffy and nice as it looks in the picture. I don't hate it, but would have gone for something else if i didn't base my decision so much on the reviews.
I ordered two of these, the second one not quite as "thick" as the first. All in all very happy. Very thick and comfortable under your feet. I added rug pads to keep in place. Love these runners!
I love it although I had wanted something a little lighter...less brown and more beige
Great runner - nice and plush. Good purchase for the price!
I'm very happy with the quality of this rug!
I needed a sturdy runner to place on top of our white carpet in front of the fireplace and had been looking in stores and online at various styles and thicknesses until I saw this one. This is much more than a rug - it is a heavy - dense high quality shag carpet cut to runner size. The binding and finishing quality are excellent. The weave is dense and the color mix in the fibers (cream, tan, white) are evenly distributed so that when we drop pieces of firewood debris on it they can't be seen. It is soft and cushiony and is perfect for sitting on when we want to be close to the fireplace hearth. This product is priced well below what you would expect to pay for this quality. I am very pleased with this purchase.
So soft and so pretty. Blends really well with any color scheme.
To me the colors were as shown and exactly what I wanted. The rug is thick and comfortable. It lays flat on my bedroom carpet and so far there has been no matting. I would recommend this rug to anyone and I can see it being used in any room in your house.
This rug looks expensive and is very soft and plush. Very easy to take care of. I like that it isn't a solid color, and the color variations make it rich looking.

Mystery continent spotted
Sharp-eyed tipster Fontane sent us this very interesting screenshot today. This is a picture of a book open on the table by the Argent Dawn emmisaries currently set up in Shattrath. What does that look like in the circled area? To me, it looks like a map of Azeroth: Northrend at the top, Kalimdor at left, Eastern Kingdoms at right, and the Maelstrom in the middle. But what's that at the bottom? Could it be a new continent?
Sure, it might be a bit early to speculate about the third expansion, given that the second isn't even out yet (five days!). But I'm going to do it anyway; we do know they've got more planned.

Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie organized a Notary Public Study Group to examine Minnesota's statutes regulating notarial acts and to develop recommendations on potential changes the Minnesota Legislature should consider making to our laws.
The Notary Public Study Group included representatives from a variety of organizations including state and local government representatives, the judiciary, legal and banking/mortgage interests, notaries public organizations and other groups who provide or rely on notarial services.
The Study Group agreed upon recommendations amending Minnesota Statutes 358 and 359, which has been introduced in the House as HF 4226. The proposed legislation can be found by clicking here.
To view the document containing all of the Study Groups Findings and Recommendations click here.
Interested parties are invited to click here to comment on the proposed legislation through a Website survey tool. These comments will be considered by the 2009 Legislature.
House File 4226 - Notary Study Group Recommended Changes to Notary Laws
Section 1M.S. 357.021
Transfers collection of $80 of the $100 fee currently received by the county for recording the commission. The $80 is currently forwarded by the county to the commissioner of finance. In section 6, the secretary of state is directed to collect this $80 fee and forward it to the commissioner of finance along with the $40 application fee collected by the secretary of state for processing the notary certificate.
Comment: The current process is confusing to notaries because the state collects a fee and the county collects both a state and county fee. This will consolidate all state fees at the state with no change in overall state or county revenue.
Section 2M.S. 357.171
Set the maximum fee that can be collected by a notary public at $5.
Comment: The current fee of $1 is felt to be insufficient to recover the costs to the notary in providing his or her service. This would allow them to charge a higher amount, but does provide for a cap of $5.
Section 3M.S. 358.15
Establishes the format which city and county officials must use in their capacity as an ex-officio notary public for authenticating official acts and also provides that certain ex-officio notaries must use an official notarial stamp in conjunction with the authentication.
Comment: The current law gives no direction to city and county officials on how to authenticate a document and the change would give that direction. In addition, without having a seal on the authentication, it is often confusing to recipients of the documents as to the authority that the authenticator has to act in that capacity. It was felt that a stamp would clarify the official nature of the ex-officio notary's act.
Section 4M.S. 358.47
Clarifies that the name on the official notarial stamp, the jurat /certification and the signature of the notary must all be the same. Requires that the certificate of the notarial act must be in English.
Comment: In some cases it has been observed that the notary signs the jurat/certification using a nickname or other abbreviation of the name they have on the stamp which causes some confusion if it is not apparent that the two names are the same.
The section also deals with the problem that exists when a notary is asked a jurat/certification in a language he or she cannot read. This change would make it clear that the jurat/certification, not the document itself, must be in English in order for him or her to be able to complete it properly.
Section 5M.S. 359.01
Expands the ability for all qualified people from adjoining states to apply for appointment and serve as a notary public in Minnesota rather than limiting it to those from adjoining counties in those adjoining states. Provides that these adjoining state residents must designate a Minnesota county in which to record their Minnesota notary commission.
Comment: Increases the number of people an employer can consider for service as a notary public in their operation to include people who are commuting from an adjoining state but live further away than an adjoining county. Makes it clear where they must record their notary certificate in these cases.
Section 6M.S. 359.01
Directs the secretary of state to collect the $80 filing fee deleted in section 1 which is currently collected by the county and forwarded to the commissioner of finance. Makes clear that the secretary of state also forwards the fee to the commissioner.
Section 7M.S. 359.01
Requires all applicants for a notary commission to authorize a criminal background check which the commissioner of commerce will request if he or she determines one is necessary and provides a citation for the authority the commissioner has to deny an application.
Comment: This section is included to have a specific reference to the authority which the commissioner of commerce has in the area of notary public qualification and regulation.
Section 8M.S. 359.02
Makes clear a notaries public commission is valid until January 31 of the fifth year after it is issued and expands the period for renewal to six months prior to expiration from the current two months. Provides that a renewal is valid even if a new governor takes office between the time the application is submitted and the new commission takes effect on January 31st.
Comment: Clarifies the period of time the commission is issued for and expands the period of time to apply prior to the expiration date.
Section 9M.S. 359.03
Requires certain ex-officio notaries to obtain a stamp similar to a notary public stamp to seal documents and oaths they have witnessed. Provides that a notarial stamp and journal are the personal property of the notary.
Comment: Currently when an ex-officio notary completes a jurat/certification it is sometimes unclear to the recipient of the document the authority which the authenticator has to take that action. This change will reduce that problem and also simplify the process for the issuance of Apostilles and certifications for documents being sent to a foreign country.
Clarifies the notary's rights regarding the stamp and the journal so as to minimize the misuse of those tools.
Section 10M.S. 359.03
Provides the specifications for a notarial stamp to be used by a notary public or ex-officio notary and makes it clear that the image of the stamp must be legibly reproducible.
Comment: This section is primarily a simplification of exiting requirements and an expansion of the description of the stamp to include the new stamp for an ex-officio notary.
Section 11M.S. 359.03
Provides the requirements for affixing an electronic seal to an electronic document.
Comment: This section makes the electronic requirements more consistent with those for paper notarization.
Section 12M.S. 359.061
Clarifies that certain counties have designated an alternative office than the court administrator for recording notary commissions pursuant to the authority found in M.S. 485.27. Requires Minnesota notaries with an adjoining state residency to record the commission with the county they have specified in the application. Provides for a fee and certificate format for the county to use in certifying to the official acts of a notary.
Comment: This section is included to have a specific reference to the authority which the county has to assign the duties of the court administrator to other departments, makes clear where an out-of-state notary files and gives specific direction on how to certify to official acts of a notary and what to charge for that act.
Section 13M.S. 359.091
Provides specific directions and authorities for a notary public to use in accommodating a person who has a demonstrable inability to sign in writing, make a mark or communicate verbally or in writing.
Comment: Current law has general provisions in Chapter 645.44, subd. 14 for situations where a person has limitations and this new section in the notary laws would give specific directions about the actions the notary should/may take in dealing with these situations.
Section 14M.S. 359.12
Clarifies the process for removal of a notary by the commissioner of commerce and requires the return of a notary stamp in the event of the removal from office of the notary.
Comment: Makes it clear that the commissioner being described is the commissioner of commerce and provides for the authority to have the stamp turned in.
Section 15357.17 & 359.05
Repeals the current language relating to the notary fees and repeals the directions on how to affix the stamp and jurat/certification language to a document.
Comment: The new fee is now provided for in section 2 and the old fee is repealed. The directions were thought to be duplicative.

To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love. But then, one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer; not to love is to suffer; to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be happy, one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness.Woody Allen

The chief problem about death, incidentally, is the fear that there may be no afterlife -- a depressing thought, particularly for those who have bothered to shave. Also, there is the fear that there is an afterlife but no one will know where it's being held.Woody Allen

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, California -- Applied Natural Gas Fuels (ANGF) has completed the purchase of 31 acres of land in RailPort Business Park in Midlothian, Texas, to build a multi-liquefier LNG production platform.
The platform will consist of up to five liquefiers with a production capacity of 86,000 LNG gallons per day per liquefier and a total on-site storage of 1.5 million LNG gallons.
In addition to formally acquiring the land, the company has executed purchase orders for all long lead items such as storage tanks, production skids and the electric motor and compressor unit.
"Midlothian is a perfect location to build our plant," said Cem Hacioglu, president and CEO of ANGF. "In addition to having all the required amenities to construct a state-of-the art facility, Midlothian's strategically important location will allow us to tap into a wide range of customers in fast growing verticals," added Hacioglu.
The Midlothian LNG plant, which is expected to be operational in early 2015, will focus on end users in the high-horsepower, trucking, E&P, rail, marine, remote power generation and mining markets that currently use diesel fuel and are interested in converting to a lower-cost, cleaner-burning alternative.
ANGF is currently in the process of doubling the production capacity at its Topock, Arizona, LNG plant by adding a second liquefier which is scheduled to come on line in July 2014. When completed, the Topock LNG plant will produce about 172,000 LNG gallons per day. Upon commissioning of all five liquefiers at the Midlothian LNG plant, ANGF' s total production capacity will reach over 600,000 LNG gallons per day.

Ferris School Board tables issue of uniforms
By 06/01/2000 00:00:00
Ellis County Press
FERRIS - Parents had hoped for a decision before the end of this school year concerning possible uniforms at the elementary campus for 2000-01.
'Parents would like a decision before the end of the school year so they could plan for it during the summer,' said Randee Erickson of the Ferris Elementary School Parents/Teachers Organization. 'Parents are frustrated their voices aren't being heard.'
Unless the Ferris Independent School District Board of Trustees was to call a special meeting, parents won't know until the next regular scheduled session June 20, which would be after the current school year.
FISD Board members voted unanimously to table the agenda item during their recent regular meeting Tuesday night, May 16 at its administration building.
At the previous meeting April 25, the board and Erickson agreed she would conduct a survey with parents voting for or against possible uniforms for the younger grades.
Erickson said each parent was allotted one vote per child attending the elementary campus.
She said 371 parents cast votes. There were 270 in favor of uniforms with 101 opposing. Percentage-wise it was 73 percent for to 27 percent against.
'Some parents said if the you did it district-wide they would be for uniforms,' Erickson said. 'As a school board they [parents] voted for you in good faith and you would do what the majority wanted.'
Trustee Thomas Griffith said the state required the district to buy uniforms for students financially unable to purchase the new clothes.
Superintendent Larry Hairgrove said the elementary school was 'the largest at-risk' school for the district to have to provide uniforms for needy children.
Seventy-three percent of the 552 students enrolled at the elementary school participated in the free-lunch program.
'Many of that 73 percent want this,' Erickson said.
Board President Duane Yee said he didn't realize the number participating in the elementary school's free-lunch program was so high.
'I thought it was around 10 or 15 percent,' he said.
One Hispanic parent asked trustees not to let the cost of uniforms affect their decision regarding implementing such as the dress code at the elementary school. She said even among poor conditions in Mexico school children there donned uniforms.
'I speak on behalf of the Hispanic community,' she said. 'Our goal is our children be educated. We ask you to be in favor of school uniforms.'
Erickson said there could be an 'adopt-a-child' program where parents could purchase uniforms for other children along with their own kids.
She said uniforms could possibly be bought wholesale.
'We could have a room set aside like a thrift store,' Erickson said.
She said Dillard's top brand name was $30 per uniform.
Trustee Wayne Jones pointed out, 'Those little kids are growing.'
Erickson said $30 was the maximum cost.
'That's not Wal-Mart, Target or Dollar General,' she said.
Erickson said stores were equipped with extra-large sizes.
She said the proposed uniforms would consist of Polo or Oxford-style shirts in solid colors of white, yellow, blue and red. Erickson said girls could wear Peter Pan blouses. She said tops would be plain without insignias, except for those promoting the FISD.
Erickson said boys would wear blue khaki pants. Girls could wear jumpers or skorts. She said jeans wouldn't be permitted.
'Parents can put re-enforcements on the inside of the knees,' Erickson said of boys' pants.
'Outer wear for cold weather has not been mandated yet.'
Hairgrove said students could be excused from wearing uniforms for religious beliefs and philosophical differences. He said philosophical differences had to be approved.
Haigrove said there was a lawsuit ending in another school district concerning a student's refusal or being forced to wear a uniform.
'I'd hate to do anything to take focus away from students such as lawsuits,' Hairgrove said.
'Uniforms may be beneficial, I don't know,' Yee said.
'I don't like taking away freedom of what I can wear,' Jones said. 'It's sort of like putting me in prison. Then I've had parents tell me they wouldn't have to worry about what they [their kids] wear every day.'
'The dress code as it is now takes away students' liberties,' Erickson said.
Griffith said he would like to consult with other school districts.
'I'd like for the other board members to be here,' Trustee Lee Longino said.
Trustees not present were Robert Scott Jr., Lori Newton and Bobby Lindsey.
'A lot of teachers have been involved in this,' Erickson said. 'Teachers have said they will dress in uniforms.'
'All of us want to do what's right and what's best for the district,' Yee said. 'Twenty-seven percent don't want uniforms. That's why we're in a dilemma.'
'The uniform dress code would be easier to enforce,' Erickson said.
'Like Lee [Longino] said, I'd like to get the other board members [Scott, Newton and Lindsey] here to get their feelings,' Yee said. 'I'd like to gather more data.'
Griffith said they needed to look a how much the cost would be if the district had to outfit some needy students with uniforms.
'The worst-case scenario would be $90 [for three sets of outfits] per kid,' he said. 'We need to dabble into this lawsuit [in another district] and see what's going on.'
'You've done a lot of hard work,' Yee told Erickson in regard to researching the possibility of uniforms.

Following the earthquake and tsunami that forced the Japanese government to shut down all of Japan's nuclear power plants last March, the country has significantly shifted its energy sources. Today, just two of the country's 50 nuclear reactors have recommenced operations. Prior to the natural disaster, Japan depended on its nuclear reactors for approximately 30% of its electricity and this was expected to increase to nearly 50% by 2050.
In early 2011, with 30% of Japan's base energy no longer available, the nation was asked to conserve electricity by as much as 15%. Power companies fired up old gas and oil powered stations and the country worked to secure imported fossil fuels. Despite the country's energy security challenges, and fears of increased energy prices and widespread blackouts, the citizens of Japan united and their demands for a nuclear-free Japan strengthened.
Japan recently announced its new energy policy entitled "Revolutionary Energy and Environment Strategy," which seeks to phase out nuclear power by 2040. To accomplish this, the policy calls for Japan to seek cheaper sources of liquefied natural gas and other fossil fuels. Additionally, the policy focuses on energy conservation, procurement of additional renewable energy sources, and energy saving measures, such as smart metering. Unfortunately, the policy is not without caveats and loopholes and there is also potential for it to be rescinded by the country's next political party. But regardless of how Japan's new energy policy is changed over the coming months the tone has been set: Japan's future will no longer rely on nuclear energy.
It is encouraging to see countries around the world, including Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and now Japan, commit to weaning themselves off nuclear power. At Portfolio 21 Investments we do not support the expansion of nuclear power because we consider the cost of new nuclear installations to be high relative to the environmental and health risks associated with nuclear reactors and waste.
Beth is a Senior Research Analyst with Portfolio 21 Investments. She has 10 years of environmental and social investing research experience.
Thanks very much for leaving a comment.

Friday 12 October 2012
Manager Stuart Pearce has hailed the contribution of Liverpool's Raheem Sterling this week as England Under-21s prepare to host Serbia in the first leg of their 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Championship play-off at Carrow Road.
The 17-year-old has made huge strides since breaking into the Liverpool first team – and the England senior set-up – this season and Pearce has been impressed by the Jamaican-born wide man in training.
"Raheem has been outstanding," the former England full-back told The Football Association's official website. "He's brought his club form into the Under-21s and looks very good.
"Raheem Sterling has been outstanding. He's got his tail up and looks a handful"
Stuart Pearce
"He was given the opportunity to go with the seniors last month, and this time he's got the chance to vie for a place with the Under-21s. He's fitted in really well and he's brought the confidence he's been given by Brendan [Rodgers] with him. He's got his tail up and looks a handful."
Sterling was one of four Liverpool players called, although Jonjo Shelvey was drafted into Roy Hodgson's squad this week, while Andre Wisdom – like Manchester United midfielder Nick Powell – has been forced to withdraw with an injury, leaving Jordan Henderson as the remaining member of Rodgers' squad under Pearce's command.
Other Barclays Premier League players hoping for the chance to help England reach the finals in Israel next year include Norwich City's Ryan Bennett and Declan Rudd, Southampton's Nathaniel Clyne, Craig Dawson of West Bromwich Albion, Manchester City's Jack Rodwell and Connor Wickham of Sunderland.
United goalkeeper Ben Amos, who is on loan at Hull City, Chelsea midfielder Josh McEachran, who is plying his trade with Middlesbrough this season, and Aston Villa forward Nathan Delfouneso, at Blackpool are also in the frame.
There is also a large contingent from Tottenham Hotspur. Defender Steven Caulker, who has been in a rich vein of form for his club having broken into the first team this campaign and started in the back-to-back Barclays Premier League victories against Manchester united and Aston Villa, is one of four Spurs players, the others being Adam Smith and Danny Rose, who is on loan at Sunderland, and Andros Townsend.
"This is a massive couple of games for us," Caulker, who scored his first Barclays Premier League goal against Aston Villa last weekend, told the club's official website. "We'll go into it with confidence as we won a lot of our matches in qualifying, but we know it will be tough."
"We'll go into it with confidence as we won a lot of our matches in qualifying, but we know it will be tough"
Steven Caulker
Caulker has scored twice in six appearances for Pearce's men, who won seven out of eight matches in their qualifying group. But England know they have their work cut out to find a way past an unbeaten Serbian outfit, who host them in the decisive return leg takes place in Krusevac on Tuesday.
"In my first campaign with the Under-21s in 2007, Serbia reached the final with the likes of [Chelsea defender Branislav] Ivanovic in the team," said Pearce. "They are a good side and we are under no illusions about that."
Manchester United's David de Gea and Chelsea's Oriol Romeu started for Spain as the defending champions put one foot in next year's finals with a 5-0 victory over Denmark on Thursday evening.
In the other tie to take place on Thursday, the Netherlands won 2-0 away to Slovakia. Chelsea defender Jeffrey Bruma, who is on loan at Hamburg SV, started for the Dutch.
Italy take on Sweden in Pescara but must do without the services of Liverpool forward Fabio Borini, who was found to have a broken metatarsal in his right foot that is set to rule him out of action for several weeks.
In the other ties Germany are up against Switzerland, who have Aston Villa goalkeeper Benjamin Siegrist in their squad, France play Norway and the Czech Republic take on Russia.
Slovakia 0-2 Netherlands
Spain 5-0 Denmark
Czech Republic v Russia
Germany v Switzerland
France v Norway
England v Serbia
Italy v Sweden
