Inside Tomlin's style: Humility, words matter for Steelers coach
Inside Tomlin's style: Humility, words matter for Steelers coach
By Jarrett Bell, USA TODAY TAMPA Iron sharpens iron. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/footb...in-cover_N.htm That's shop talk, courtesy of Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin, who has stretched much mileage from a few choice words on his rapid ascent up the coaching ladder. "I've probably heard that one at least 150 times this year," Steelers defensive end Brett Keisel says. "It's kind of monotonous, but we get the point." There is serious brainwashing at work. Like advertising executives on Madison Avenue whose memorable jingles are hammered home on a campaign, Tomlin embraces verbal repetition. A wide swath of material is fair game. He quotes from books, movies and even Robert Frost poems. He sprinkles in pop-culture buzzwords and clichés alike when speaking in team meetings and on the practice field. More grounded, more humble, more selfless makes us more opportunistic. Steelers players have heard that mantra throughout the postseason, and some might utter it reflexively, summoned from their unconscious mind as if they were oversized parrots. It can be like whistling a song suddenly stuck on the brain. "You'll catch yourself, like, 'Why did I just say that?' " quarterback Ben Roethlisberger says. The man has options. "If he were not a football coach," defensive tackle Chris Hoke says, "he'd be a shrink." Tomlin, 36, isn't sure what he'd do for a living if a whistle weren't dangling from his neck. In lieu of psychology, he knows exactly what he is at the moment: In his second year at the helm, he is the youngest coach to guide a team to the Super Bowl. It seems fitting that Tomlin a married father of three who played receiver at William and Mary can make history at Raymond James Stadium. He got his first NFL job in 2001 on Tony Dungy's staff as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive backs coach. Yet this isn't a sentimental journey, even though his wife, Kiya, with a circle of friends in the area, came to town two days before the Steelers arrived Monday. "I'm not one," Tomlin says, "that buys into the notion that it's destiny." It also is compelling that former Steelers assistants Ken Whisenhunt and Russ Grimm who also were in the running to succeed Bill Cowher as Steelers coach in 2007 will be on the opposite sideline Sunday. Tomlin downplays this juicy subplot, although he acknowledges that Whisenhunt has insight on how the Steelers were built and the subtleties of their players. "This game," Tomlin says, "is going to be decided by those who play it on the field." Favorite phrases The time's coming when we're going to have to ante up and kick in like men. That's a memorable line from Glory, the 1989 film about an all-black Civil War infantry. That Glory ranks among Tomlin's favorites he estimates that he has seen it 25 times flows with his appreciation for history and other forms of non-fiction. A favorite book is the best-seller Flags of Our Fathers by James Bradley, the son of one of the World War II soldiers who raised the U.S. flag at Iwo Jima. "Now I don't try to draw parallels between military combat and football," Tomlin says. "But it was an awesome learning experience from a leadership standpoint." Tomlin also loves a good biography. "I'm not a fiction reader by any stretch," he said. "I read for information." And insightful catchphrases. It's a 5-Star Game, because we're in it. Tomlin began to incorporate verbal bouquets into his coaching philosophy four jobs ago, when he coached defensive backs at Arkansas State in 1998. He felt he needed to find a way to get his coaching points to resonate with players. "People aren't very good listeners, by nature," he says. "Part of being a good communicator is recognizing and understanding that and trying to make the complex simple. I try to capture a concept, an idea or a moment in a few words. If they remember it, job done." I'll tolerate you until I can replace you. Jermaine Phillips remembers this one. Phillips, a Buccaneers safety, was one of Tomlin's first NFL pupils. Earlier this week, it was the first Tomlin quote that popped into Phillips' mind when asked about his former position coach. "It's simple, but it has so much meaning," Phillips said. "It's the essence of the NFL." The Steelers got a whiff of Tomlin's straight talk from Day One. In his first team meeting as coach, he addressed Grimm, telling players he understood the former assistant had popular locker room support to land the job. At the same time, Tomlin established himself as the new boss with methods that did not exactly endear him to his players. Last season, Tomlin had his team practicing in pads in December. When the Steelers folded with a playoff-opening loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, some pointed to the physical demands down the stretch as draining. This season, Tomlin backed off on the padded practices late in the season and has helped some veterans, including Hines Ward and Troy Polamalu, stay fresh with off days from Wednesday practices. He slacked only so much. In training camp, Tomlin put Casey Hampton on the physically unable to perform list until the overweight defensive tackle got in shape. After rookie wide receiver Limas Sweed dropped a sure touchdown pass in the AFC title game, then flopped to the turf with a bruised ego costing the team a timeout as he lay on the turf until trainers arrived Tomlin instantly chastised him on the sideline. Willie Parker, the running back who battled through injuries this season, drew Tomlin's public wrath after criticizing running back strategies. "Every morning when I come to work," Tomlin said at a mid-December news conference, "I walk past five Lombardis, not five rushing titles." Ward says it was immediately obvious that a confident Tomlin was intent on being his own man. Never mind that several of Cowher's assistants, including defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau, remained under Tomlin. Says linebacker Larry Foote: "He ruffled a lot of feathers. He still does. But he doesn't blink. That's his way." Tomlin also couldn't care less about glowing praises from his players. He snapped during a recent news conference, when a reporter brought up as much. "I'm not interested in evaluating my performance, and particularly I'm not interested in my players' evaluations of my performance," Tomlin said. "I'm paid to evaluate them. How's your editor?" Newport News roots Tomlin grew up in Newport News, Va., where he attended Denbigh High School. He and his brother were raised for several years by a divorced mother, Julia, who married Leslie Copeland, a stepfather Tomlin refers to as "an all-pro dad." In Tomlin's office at Steelers headquarters, there's an aerial photo of downtown Newport News, which reminds him of the place where his mother, grandfather and uncles all retired from the shipyards. "I used to pick my mom up from work," Tomlin recalled. "I'd watch everybody spill out of those gates, trying to get on those buses and get out of there. It's a very blue-collar town. But being from there, you have a great amount of pride in it. We are hardened when we come from there." Perhaps that's why Tomlin has been such a good fit in Pittsburgh, with its deep blue-collar roots. Yet Tomlin, who accents his coaching attire with designer shades and keeps his thin sideburns trimmed, is considered extremely cool for an NFL coach. Foote says, "He drives an Escalade, but I can see him in a Lamborghini or Bentley." Tomlin is not too cool, though, for Kiya's honey-do list. "Are you kidding?" he says. "She says she can always tell when it's a big game, because I'll forget to put the trash out on Tuesday morning, on the way to work. She'll leave me a message: 'Must be a big game. The trash is by the garage instead of on the street corner.' " Steelers president Art Rooney alludes to Tomlin's "presence" as a swing factor during the interview process. But this was not without impressive substance. Tomlin, hired after one season as Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator, brought a half-dozen binders to his Steelers interviews. They were filled with detailed plans for how he would handle a role with a franchise that had two coaches Chuck Noll and Cowher in the previous 38 years. The first binder outlined core beliefs and philosophies. Another dealt with training camp. Another addressed news media relations, the training room and travel. A plan that covered essentials for the chance of making the Super Bowl? "When we made the Super Bowl," Tomlin asserted. Yes, there's a binder for that. "I don't know if we got to that in the interview, though," Tomlin recalls. "I had a lot of things that we didn't get to." That binder might fetch a good price on eBay. "It's not for sale," Tomlin shot back. "I've got to compete." Find this article at: http://www.usatoday.com/sports/footb...in-cover_N.htm |

I had to drop from Palo Duro after three of the four 12.5 mile loops through the canyon. The first two loops were pretty routine, but the third was difficult with multiple issues (bonking, cramping, uneasy stomach) that had to addressed and dealt with. Often issues like these come one or two at a time, but to paraphrase Queen Gertrude in Hamlet, who ought to know, sometimes troubles "come in battalions."
By the time I had sorted out all of the issues I was feeling better again and my pace had improved, but I had lost a lot of time and there was no reasonable hope of making the checkpoint cut-off times for the 4th loop, so I dropped after 37.5 miles.
After the initial disappointment, I didn't feel too badly about things. This sort of thing can happen every so often in ultras, and there is really no use in trying to second guess my effort or my training. I did everything in similar fashion to last year's successful Palo Duro finish, and was in arguably better shape with cooler weather for this year's attempt. Some days are just some days.
What a beautiful day in the canyon, though. If you get a chance to visit Palo Duro Canyon, don't hesitate. It's a unique place and will stay with you long after.

Because of the cost I expected this to be well made and easy to use ... I never installed it to the computer because the sound quality was so poor ... sounds like the speaker is broken ... but doesn't look that way ... I am returning it and expect a full refund ... would not recommend this to anyone.

Audacity audio recording/editing/conversion software provided does not work with Windows 7 have to go to website to download and it also does not offer a lot of clear assistance with the recording conversion or editing features. Assumes knowleged where none may exist. Unless you have experience with audio software this one is a bit confusing.

Orphans at risk in sub-Saharan Africa: evidence on educational and health outcomes

Get AccessAbstract
Based on comparable data for eleven sub-Saharan African countries with especially high rates of orphanhood, we examine how orphanhood affects children's educational and health outcomes. Using household fixed-effects to control for influences at the household level, we show that orphans do not only fare worse than non-orphans because they tend to live in poorer households, but that they are also at a disadvantage compared to non-orphans within the same household. They lag behind in education and are more often malnourished and stunted. (The coefficients on the health outcomes are only statistically significant for some of the countries and some of the health measures, however.) Moreover, we show that non-orphaned children not living with a biological parent are also worse off compared to biological children of the same caregivers. Educational gaps are particularly evident for children whose mother is deceased or absent. The additional effect of paternal death or absence is rather modest or insignificant in most countries.

The Obama administration is pressing for what would be a fourth round of international sanctions on Iran over its nuclear program, which Western powers suspect is aimed at delivering a nuclear weapon. Clinton is expected to use her UN visit to lobby Security Council members to approve tough new sanctions on Iran.
But she is no doubt aware that Ahmadinejad's high-profile visit to New York and a fiery, us-little-guys-against-them-bullies speech from him risk winning some sympathetic support in an international gathering with many small and relatively powerless countries.
Declaring on "Meet the Press" Sunday that Ahmadinejad would "try to divert attention and confuse the issue" in his speech, Clinton added, "We're not going to permit Iran to try to change the story from their failure to comply" with NPT obligations.
Ahmadinejad unapologetic over Iran's secrecy
Iran has failed to allow UN nuclear inspectors into all of its nuclear sites and last year revealed previously unknown underground sites only after word of their existence began to surface.
But Ahmadinejad remains unapologetic about Iran's nuclear program. He signaled his intentions to stay on the offensive at the UN in comments he made before leaving Tehran Sunday. Noting that the US is the only country to have ever used a nuclear weapon against an adversary, the Iranian president said that "unfortunately" the NPT has failed at nonproliferation and disarmament.

Massage therapy goes to the dogs
Vet clinic touts services for $60 a pop
Mike TaylorI've never paid for a massage for myself, let alone one for my dog, so when a flyer arrived in my mailbox from my vet announcing this new service and listing the therapeutic benefits of canine massage, I initially viewed it as a case of extreme anthropomorphism.
Right up there with sunglasses for dogs. Or Frosty Paws frozen treats for dogs. Or baseball caps for dogs. Or dog food in tantalizing shapes and colors for dogs – which really only entices the humans paying for it.
Just because people like massages, does that mean our four-legged best friends do, too? I mean, how can you tell if a dog is enjoying having his shoulders and legs rubbed in a vet clinic, as opposed to merely tolerating it?
"When they fall asleep on me I figure that's a good sign," said Chris Houghton, the massage therapist at Campus Veterinary Clinic in Southeast Denver.
Houghton, who first became certified to give horse massages 12 years ago, explained that the purpose behind her massages for horses and dogs is different than massages for most people.
"It tends to be more of a therapy than, like, with people who go and listen to the waterfall with the candles and all of that," Houghton said.
Houghton, 38, has been a certified veterinary technician at Campus Vet Clinic for 11 years. She became certified in equine massage therapy through the Equine Sports Massage Center while attending Bel Rea Institute of Animal Technology, where she earned an associate's degree in 1997.
Houghton, who has a horse and three dogs of her own, says she worked her way from horse massage to canines from continuing education through Colorado State University and the Canine Rehab Institute.
Eight weeks into the new dog-massage service at Campus Vet Clinic, Houghton had seven massage-therapy clients, plus a few clients that she sees on her own. Some come once a week, some every other week. She's trying to get one dog who is recovering from knee surgery down to a visit every three weeks. Another recent patient was a dog recovering from a stroke.
"You can see a difference when dogs go too long (between visits) and then the owners are calling," Houghton says. "If I can get them out to every three weeks or so we'd like to do it, because it is an expense, but that third week is when you start seeing them slowing back down again."
Houghton says another niche that could use her services are dogs that participate in organized athletics such as flyball and agility events, so she's planning to attend a flyball tournament in the next few weeks to prospect for clients.
The cost for a dog massage seems to be about in line with what it costs a human: $60 per visit. A session lasts 45 minutes to an hour. Houghton performs the massages in a room with a big dog bed, and she says, "I've got a CD for animal healing that we play during it, and we use essential oils and flower essence as well."
I asked Houghton about giving massages to dogs that are resistant to the therapy, especially aggressive dogs.
"Those you pretty much don't do," she said. "Because when you get to the ones that don't want to be there and that are that set against having it done, you're not accomplishing anything. It's just not worth it. When it comes a point that you have to muzzle the dog to give it the massage, it's kind of lost the therapeutic benefit you're going to be giving to it, because now it's stressed out and fighting. You're not making any progress with it."
Getting owners to fork over $60 for their dog to get a massage would seem to be an even harder sell in this recession. But that could work both ways. Could dogs be feeling their owners stress of this economic uncertainty and hardship?
"Oh yeah, Houghton said. "Have you ever owned a dog? They can tell when you've had a bad day. They know. They'll take on whatever you're feeling. So sometimes you have to say, 'OK is this really what the dog's projecting, or is this what I'm projecting onto the dog?'"

The introduction of digital cameras that strived to match or exceed film negatives' capabilities and of UHD displays that support the explosion in home viewing have set in motion a re-evaluation of the professional entertainment supply chain. New practices, technologies and standards are being proposed to address image quality, the creative process, storage and transport roadblocks, the audience experience, and more. But are the major opportunities and challenges being addressed? The time is right to take stock of the progress to date, to examine and evaluate the solutions on the table to and to prepare for the future.
Filmmakers, display manufacturers, senior executives, and technologists from the content supply chain at studios, networks, and post-production/distribution companies and vendors participated in an interactive 360° forum examining the 4K supply chain options that will further the artistic and business interests of the entertainment and CE industry while delivering a demonstrably improved viewing experience. Among the topics of focus were resolution, high dynamic range (HDR), high frame rate (HFR), post and distribution workflows, new compression and color space solutions, UHD TV innovations, refresh rates, and other settings.

Harsher still were CalBuzz's Jerry Roberts and Phil Trounstine, who wrote an excellent piece on eMeg's mishandling of the situation:
First decrying the negative ads that both sides have run - which, Lauer emoted, have created a "bloodbath" (puh-leeze) - he asked:
"Would either of you, or both of you, be willing to make a pledge that you would end the negativity? [Big cheer] Would you pull your negative ads and replace them with positive ads and talk to the surrogate groups as well [which would be ILLEGAL, you jackass, which is why they're called independent expenditures] and express that to them, that you want only positive message out there to give the people of California a break and let them decide what really matters. Would either of you accept that?"
It was a totally inappropriate question and actually unfair to Whitman, who is behind in all the public polls and has no choice in a tough campaign in which she's invested $140 million of her own money, but to try to pull voters away from Brown. In any event, that's her decision. And Lauer had no business sticking his scrawny ass into the campaign and trying to broker some deal because he thinks that's how the game should be played. If he knew anything about politics in general and California politics in particular he could not have asked such a dimwit question.
And later:
Lauer broke in and got up on his high New York know-nothing horse: "There's been enough slurs and housekeepers. We know you are both flawed people. Everybody in this room is flawed But what is going to accomplish what Gov. Schwarzenegger is talking about - taking California to the next step, financially in particular, is going to be your strengths not your weaknesses. And I'm asking again, will you both pledge? I'll give you 24 hours because I know the wheels of a campaign don't stop overnight," he said, as if he actually knew anything about how campaigns operate.
In fairness to Lauer, he is Matt Lauer, co-host of the Today show, and Whitman might have been wise to see this kind of campfire sing-a-long coming. But the defense rests there.
While we lament the explosion of slapdash misleading negative campaign ads, negativity in general can serve a purpose, particularly for Whitman, whose opponent has a long history in office from which to draw, and whose last hopes rest on a negativity blitz. That's the game; you can't disqualify her from playing. Lauer's was a cheap trick question; a stunt that belied an ignorance of politics on his part and demonstrated for all of us the tricky territory national journalists face when diving into a race they've only glanced from afar—particularly when the journalist is prone to hokey-ness at the outset.
And frankly, if you are going to ask the question, you might want to follow up a little more pointedly than the "think of the children" riff. Brown got off easy here. As he was jumping on Lauer's white unicorn to Togethernessville, the journalist might have asked this: Do you think it's easy, Candidate Brown, for you to decry negative campaigning now, after embracing it so readily when Whitman's undocumented employee came out of the woodwork?
That would have been a cheap trick question, true, but one worth asking.

Power of One took on a whole new meaning when Fort Hays State University President Edward Hammond announced Friday at the annual President's Dinner the Power of One Scholarship Campaign had exceed the $8 million goal.
The announcement was made public Tuesday.
The campaign began in December 2013 and aimed to raise the goal amount by December 2014. More than $8,268,392 was raised in the first six months.
"Within a couple weeks of (announcing my retirement), I announced we would use this as an opportunity to raise money for the students," Hammond said. "Increased scholarships is the most important need we have."
FHSU hadn't raised more than $2 million during the course of a year. It represents a 400-percent increase from normal scholarship fundraising expectations.
"It's a horrible thing to waste an opportunity, and we have more than half the year to go," Hammond said. "Our new goal is to raise $1 million a month. As I step down as president, this gives me something to do."
Hammond and the FHSU Foundation hope to raise $12 million by the end of the campaign.
"What we have found is many people have been very supportive of this effort," Hammond said. "They understand the importance of supporting our students."
Additional support was revealed during the President's Dinner when Don and Chris Bickle, along with Bob and Pat Schmidt, announced a contribution of $500,000 in support of establishing the Dr. Edward H. Hammond Endowed Chair.
"What we've really seen and are experiencing today is the beginning of a legacy," said Tim Chapman, president and CEO of the foundation. "We will forever attach Hammond's name to the presidency of this institution."
Recently selected president Mirta Martin will be the first Distinguished Hammond Chair.
"These families honored me with an endowed chair," Hammond said. "I'm humbled by their generosity and support of FHSU."
Hammond said the state of Kansas is required to match the amount of the endowed chair.
The funds will go toward supporting new and existing scholarships.
"We'll be long on our way to trying to make FHSU not only the most affordable place," Hammond said, "but also an institution where we can reward especially good students who have financial needs with additional resources to help them become Tigers in the future."

The New Hampshire Department of Education (NHDOE) has partnered with the Center for Collaborative Education (CCE) and the National Center for the Improvement of Educational Assessment (NCIEA) to develop capacity in school districts for the use of performance assessment to build and measure student mastery of college and career ready competencies. The NHDOE policy requiring all high school courses to be aligned to local competencies is one step the state has already taken to foster new practices of assessment that promote and assess "deeper levels of understanding important academic content and skills."
As a part of this work, the NHDOE is developing a state-wide performance assessment system that will balance local control with state-wide accountability and comparability. This system, the Performance Assessment for Competency Education (PACE) option, will build on New Hampshire's competency work, including the development of statewide college and career ready competencies, and will be one component of the New Hampshire student assessment system.
PACE will include:
As an early step in this process, the PACE option will be piloted by a group of self-selected school districts.
The foundational principles of this initiative are:
NH Performance Assessment Network Institute Trainings
The NH Performance Assessment Network is an exciting new multi-year initiative that engages New Hampshire's school districts in building and implementing valid and reliable performance assessments aligned to NH state and local competencies. Performance assessments are multi-step assignment tasks with clear criteria, expectations, and processes which measure how well a student transfers knowledge and applies complex skills to create or refine an original product.
We currently have 3 cohorts, comprised of K-8 and HS practitioners, who have completed year-long professional development institutes. We are currently recruiting two additional cohorts (K-8 and HS) to participate during the 2014-2015 school year.
Cohorts 4 & 5 (2014-2015): Districts that wish to have their schools join a K- 8 and/or a high school cohort, beginning summer 2014 may apply electronically by Friday, June 20, 2014 via survey monkey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NHPA14-15. We will seek to enroll teams that represent the diversity of the state's schools/districts.
In 2014-2015, the 5 days of institute training with school/district teams include a two-day statewide summer institute on July 23-24, 2014, and three days during the school year conducted regionally. A North Country institute on July 7-8, 2014 will also be offered. Regional meetings are hosted by participant schools, with sessions focused on sharing the host school's approach to integrating performance assessment into teaching and learning.
Opportunities for additional support and sharing on different aspects of creating, administering, and using data from quality performance assessments occur through the online NH Network Platform (Eduplanet21), as well as regional sharing visits, and telephone/email consultation.

Not saying its goo or bad, but S&P has its own weighting methodology for tracking the 500 leading publicly traded US companies. It has become a bellwether for the US stock market and a benchmark for most equity funds, but in theory it is no different than any mutual fund that trades based on an algorithm. Index funds are only as good as the underlying index methodology. There are plenty of actively-managed funds that have beaten index mutual funds and index ETFs. JMUEX, since 1996 (as far back as Yahoo had historical prices), has annualized returns of 7.19% with dividends reinvested. SPY and VFINX have 7.13 and 7.15% respectively. That is with all fees included. Additionally, JMUEX has 9.09% annualized returns over the last 10 years compared to 7.74 and 7.70 for SPY and VFINX respectively. Just do your research.

[Chrome, Firefox] Declutter webpages with Evernote Clearly
Posted By Joshua On October 5, 2012 @ 7:59 PM In Browsers | 1 Comment
[1]If you look at lots of articles on the web, often you don't want to see content outside the article like the tabs, other articles, and what not. If you are this type of person, then Evernote Clearly is for you.
Main Functionality
Lets you get rid of everything around the main article so you see the only article, which is not only useful when surfing the web but also when printing.
The following demo video by Evernote shows Evernote Clearly in action:
Many people that use Windows usually use one of two browsers if they care about their browsing experience: Firefox or Chrome. And because most people do not like to go cross-platform, they stray away from Apple's Safari… not to mention that Apple no longer supports the Windows version of Safari. However, if you do have Safari you already something have called 'Reader' which basically does the same thing as Evernote Clearly. However since we don't care about Safari or Reader, let us get onto the rest of the experience of Evernote Clearly.
[2]Most people that use Firefox or Chrome use it because they love to customize it. And Evernote Clearly is no different. By going to your Add-ons Manager and then clicking on the option button for Clearly, you can get to all of the different options that include: keyboard shortcuts, page color, font and size, and the width in between the words. With all of these customizations you can really feel like your web browser is yours.
Another plus for using Evernote Clearly is that it is environmentally friendly. You may be asking how this addon is environmentally friendly. Simple: when printing you no longer print all the junk stuff you don't want, meaning you save paper and ink. Also, back in the old days, we used to print out articles so we could read them later without all of the extra things that most websites have on them (like in book format); with Evernote Clearly you no longer need to physically print articles to get rid of the junk or to get that book format.
In addition to be able to view articles in your web browser, you can can also clip articles to your Evernote account and make life so much easier. When you clip it to your Evernote account you can then view it on your Android, iOS, or web browser on any machine.
As with all software, sadly there are some downsides to this product. The first one is you have to sign into your Evernote by clicking on the little lamp symbol that is in the right hand corner of your browser (if you have not made any prior adjustments). This is really just a little inconvenient — automation would be better. And the second problem with this addon is: in order to change the background color, font color, or link color, you need to know HTML color codes (hex color codes). If you don't know hex color codes by heart (no one does…), you can go here [3] to find them.
Overall this is a great addon and I love it. I have been using it for the past couple of days and have been loving it. While there are many great addons that do basically the same thing, this one really takes the cake. I especially like how you can sync your articles across multiple devices and how everything works great.
Price: Free

General Bankruptcy, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
General Bankruptcy / US Trustee
Calendar Information
Case Information
Creditor (14-19)
What is the difference between chapters?
Chapter 7: Often called the liquidation chapter, chapter 7 is used by individuals, partnerships, or corporations who have no hope for repairing their financial situation. In chapter 7 asset cases, the debtor's estate is liquidated under the rules of the bankruptcy code. Liquidation is the process through which the debtor's non-exempt property is sold for cash by a trustee and the proceeds are distributed to creditors.
Chapter 11: Often called the reorganization chapter, chapter 11 allows corporations, partnerships, and some individuals to reorganize, without having to liquidate all assets. In filing a chapter 11, the debtor presents a plan to creditors which, if accepted by the creditors and approved by the court, will allow the debtor to reorganize personal, financial or business affairs and again become a financially productive individual or business.
Chapter 13: An individual with a regular income who is overcome by debts, but believes such debt can be repaid within a reasonable period of time, may file under chapter 13 of the bankruptcy code. Chapter 13 permits the debtor to file a plan in which the debtor agrees to pay a certain percentage of future income to the bankruptcy court trustee for payment to creditors. If the court approves the plan, the debtor will be under the court's protection while repaying such debts.
More information regarding the difference between chapters can be found in the Bankruptcy Basics Manual.
How do I find out who the trustee is in a case?
The court prints the name of the trustee in Chapters 7, 12, or 13 bankruptcy cases on the Notice of Bankruptcy, Meeting of Creditors and Deadlines. You may obtain the trustee's name by accessing the court's Multi-Court Voice Case Information System (McVCIS) or through Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER). The name of the trustee is also accessible via the public terminals in all divisional offices or you may call the divisional office where the case is pending or was closed.
Where do I get procedural information?
Procedures on our website are divided into three sections: district, division and national. Please see the Rules and Procedures link for further information.
The creditor's matrix is a list of the creditors in your case. It must be filed in the proper format so that it can be used by the court's automated noticing system. Please see Amended General Order 13 for creditor matrix formatting instructions.
What is a 341(a) Meeting Of Creditors?
The meeting of creditors is a hearing all debtors must attend in any bankruptcy proceeding. It is held outside of the presence of the judge and usually occurs between 20 and 40 days after the filing of the petition. In chapter 7, 12, and 13 cases, the trustee assigned to the case conducts the meeting. In a chapter 11 case, a representative of the United States Trustee's Office conducts the meeting.
The meeting permits the trustee or the representative of the U.S. Trustee to review the debtor's petition and schedules with the debtor. The debtor is required to answer questions under penalty of perjury (swearing or affirming to tell the truth) about the debtor's conduct, property, liabilities, financial condition, and any other matter that may affect the administration of the case or the debtor's right to discharge. In addition, the trustee or U.S. Trustee's representative will ask questions to ensure that the debtor understands the bankruptcy process.
The meeting is referred to as a meeting of creditors because creditors are notified that they may attend and ask the debtor questions pertaining to assets or any other matter pertinent to the administration of the case. It is also referred to as a 341 meeting because it is mandated by Section 341 of the Bankruptcy Code. Creditors are not required to attend these meetings and do not waive any rights if they do not attend. The meeting usually lasts only about ten to fifteen minutes and may be continued if the trustee or U.S. Trustee's representative is not satisfied with the information presented.
If the debtor fails to appear and provide the information requested, the trustee or U.S. Trustee's representative may request that the case be dismissed, or may seek other relief against the debtor for failure to cooperate. If the case involves spouses filing jointly, both spouses must appear at the meeting of creditors.
Who do I notify about a possible fraudulent filing? In order to expedite the handling of complaints of criminal violations in the bankruptcy system, the United States Trustee requires that your complaint be submitted in a signed letter, bearing your return address and telephone number. Your complaint will be reviewed promptly upon receipt. If the information furnished establishes a reasonable belief that a criminal violation has occurred, the matter will be referred to the United States Attorney. If the United States Attorney deems the matter to hold prosecutorial merit, it will be referred to the appropriate law enforcement agency for investigation. A clearly written statement containing copies of any available documentation will expedite this process. The following information should be submitted with your complaint:
1. Name and address of the person or business you are reporting.
For more information regarding reporting suspected bankruptcy fraud, please see the United States Trustee's website.
General Bankruptcy / US Trustee
What is the function of the
The Office of the U.S. Trustee is an executive branch agency that is part of the Department of Justice. Its responsibilities include monitoring the administration of bankruptcy cases and detecting bankruptcy fraud. It is also responsible for appointing interim trustees to administer chapter 7 cases from a previously appointed panel of private individuals, lending support to and overseeing the debtor-in-possession in chapter 11 cases, and appointing and supervising standing trustee in chapter 13 cases.
The individuals appointed by the U.S. Trustee to serve as interim or standing trustees in individual bankruptcy cases changes over time. If you would like additional information regarding either the trustee program in general or individual trustees, you should contact the Office of the U.S. Trustee or the Region 17 Office of the U.S. Trustee website..
What is Credit Counseling and Personal Financial Management?
Credit counseling is conducted by a United States Trustee authorized credit counselor and must be completed before you file for bankruptcy. It is a requirement for ALL individual debtors. When you have received your credit counseling, the credit counselor will issue a certificate that must be filed with the bankruptcy court. If you are filing jointly with your spouse, both of you must complete credit counseling. The failure to timely file a properly issued credit counseling certificate will result in the dismissal of your bankruptcy case. If applicable, the credit counselor may issue a proposed budget and repayment plan (if one is prepared, it is to be filed along with the certificate).
Personal financial management is a course that you take, after you file bankruptcy, from an agency authorized by the United States Trustee. It is only required for chapter 7 and 13 individual debtors. Once you have completed the training, you must file Official Form B 23 . If a certificate was provided, this must be submitted at the time of filing the B23 form. In chapter 7 cases, the certificate regarding completion of a financial management course must be filed within 45 days of the first scheduled 11 U.S.C. 341 Meeting of Creditors. In chapter 13 cases, the certificate of course completion is due prior to the completion of all plan payments so that a discharge may be obtained. The failure to timely file the certificate of course completion in either a chapter 7 or 13 case could result in your case being closed without the issuance of a discharge. If this occurs, you will need to pay a filing fee to reopen the case.
Please visit the US Trustee's website for the most recent information on approved credit counseling agencies and personal financial management instructional course providers.
Calendar Information
How do I obtain a hearing date?
Please refer to the procedures, of the judge assigned to your case, for information regarding setting a hearing date.
Case Information
How do I get copies of documents or certified copies?
Copies and/or certified copies can be obtained through the court. Please see the bankruptcy fees page for information regarding payment for certified copies.. For more information regarding copy charges, please contact our divisional offices, San Francisco, Oakland, Santa Rosa, San Jose.
How do I obtain case information?
Bankruptcy cases are public records and are available for viewing in the Clerk's Office where the case was filed. In addition, the court's Electronic Case Filing (ECF) system provides access to court files via the Internet. Basic information about a case is available through the Multi-Court Voice Case Information System (McVCIS) or through Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER). Closed cases that pre-date 2005 may also be viewed at the National Archives Records Administration in How do I find out if someone has filed Bankruptcy? PACER has a national index search tool called the U.S. Party/Case Index. With a valid PACER account, you may search the entire country for a specific debtor. The results will give you the party name, case number and jurisdiction in which the case was filed. The report will allow access to a case's docket.
Is bankruptcy information public information? Can anyone look at it?
The information contained in documents filed in bankruptcy cases are a matter of public record. Documents may be accessed in the Clerk's Office during regular business hours or, for those who have access to PACER, via the Internet 24-hours a day. Unless a document is sealed, all pleadings filed in a bankruptcy case are available for viewing. Debtors should note that filing a bankruptcy may adversely affect their credit rating. Credit reporting agencies regularly collect and disclose bankruptcy data to the public.
How do I get admitted to practice in the bankruptcy court?
Attorneys must be admitted to practice before the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Please contact the District Court for further information.
A business or individual has filed for bankruptcy and owes us money. What do we do?
If you have been listed as a creditor in a bankruptcy case, you are advised to carefully read all information provided on court notices. If and when assets are found, you will receive a proof of claim form. If you have not received a proof of claim form, you may obtain one from any Clerk's Office or via the Internet. You may also send a letter requesting a proof of claim form, along with a self addressed stamp envelope, to the Clerk's Office . Please complete and file the original and one copy of the proof of claim with the Clerk's Office. Please enclose an extra copy of the proof of claim, along with a self-addressed stamped envelope, if you wish to receive a conformed copy of this document. For information regarding when a claim will be paid in an asset case, you are urged to contact the trustee assigned to the case. The trustee's contact information is located in the Notice of Chapter [7 or 13] Bankruptcy Case, Meeting of Creditors & Deadline. Additionally, you may contact the debtor's attorney whose name and telephone number is contained in the Notice of Chapter [7, 11 or 13] Bankruptcy Case, Meeting of Creditors & Deadlines. A proof of claim is not needed for a no asset case. Please note, Clerk's Office staff cannot provide any legal advice. The court strongly recommends creditors to consult with a qualified bankruptcy attorney.
A claim is any right to payment held by a person or entity against a person or entity that filed bankruptcy. The written statement filed in a bankruptcy case setting forth a creditor's claim is called a proof of claim. The proof of claim should include a copy of the documentation giving rise to the claim, as well as evidence of secured status if the claim is secured. In certain cases, the notice of meeting of creditors sent to all creditors listed includes a proof of claim form.
Is there a deadline for filing a Proof of Claim?
If the trustee files a Notice of Possible Dividends in a chapter 7 no asset case, you will be sent a notice of the deadline (bar date) by which a claim is due. In a Chapter 7 "asset" case, the deadline (bar date) for creditors who have claims against the debtor is stated in the Notice of Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, Meeting of Creditors and Deadlines. The date should be not exceed ninety days after the first date set for the Meeting of Creditors.
In Chapter 9 and 11 cases, creditors will receive a specific notice of the deadline (bar date) by which a claim is due.
In a Chapter 13 case, the deadline (bar date) for creditors who have claims against the debtor is detailed in the Notice of Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, Meeting of Creditors and Deadlines. The date should be not exceed ninety days after the first date set for the Meeting of Creditors.
In a Chapter 12 case, the deadline (bar date) for creditors who have claims against the debtor is noted on the Notice of Meeting of Creditors. The date should be not exceed ninety days after the first date set for the Meeting of Creditors.
I am a creditor in a Chapter 7 asset case and received notice that I am to receive a payment from the Trustee. When will I receive payment?
Generally, trustees distribute funds to creditors six to eight weeks after they send out the notice of the Final Report and Accounting, however, the distribution of funds may take longer than the above designated timeline. If you have questions, please contact the Chapter 7 trustee.
I am a creditor in a Chapter 11 case and the plan of reorganization has been approved. When will payments be distributed?
Each specific plan has different provisions pertaining to the time and amounts of creditor payments. Please consult the plan to find out the payment distribution schedule. If you have questions, please consult with your attorney or call the debtor's attorney and ask him when your class of creditors will be paid.
I am a creditor. What should I do if my address changes from the address on my Proof of Claim?

Gallery: Recycled POTOGREEN Planters Disguise Parisian Parking Poles as...
Shop owners, children, and other residents are encouraged to purchase and hang their own planter
The planters are made in part from recycled milk containers and fabric recovered from tents that are made by people undergoing rehabilitation at Emmaus, realizing, according to Kingleur, a further two dimensions of the POTOGREEN project; namely sustainable development and economic solidarity. The aluminum inside the milk containers ensures that the planters won't leak, while the exterior canvas keeps them nice and dry. Shop owners, residents, school children, and other citizens are invited to get their very own planter and reclaim their favorite urban space!

The era of pirates is still one of the major attractions in the present scenario. Perhaps, this is the reason why a number of games and films have been composed on the pirate themes. But, before we proceed, it is necessary for understand what exactly the era of pirates is. Was there a specific era, in which the swashbuckler existed? Of course not; as a matter of the fact, the piracy started in the ancient times, and it is still going on in some parts of the world.
But, still there is a time, which we can call as "era of pirates" since the piracy was at the peak during this period. Even, there was a time in-between this era, which we know as the "golden age of piracy". But, the aforesaid golden age can be taken as a small part of this era of pirates. It was actually the renaissance age, to which we can give this name. The renaissance age was the period, when the art and culture were being flourished on one hand; and the pirates were making their culture, on the other. This culture had various aspects, which are popular in the present scenario as well. The pirate clothing is supposed to be the major part of the culture, which is popular today. The pirates would wear the looted clothing in their own way, which is the fashion trend in the recent times.
In addition, the adventurous lifestyles of the pirates are also admired by a large number of men and women today. A number of movies have also been produced, in which the swashbucklers have been depicted fictionally. Pirates of the Caribbean series featuring Captain Jack Sparrow (brought to life by Johnny Depp) is the most famous in the present scenario. Captain Jack Sparrow, the protagonist of the film, is a pirate who is involved in a number of adventures. Besides, some other freebooters of the movies also attract the viewers. Angelica of On Stranger Tides perfectly represents the female pirates of the renaissance age such as Anne Bonny and Mary Read. Besides, the fictional depiction of the real pirate Blackbeard has also been shown in the movie. Four movies of this series have been produced, and the fifth one is in the pipeline. The pirate costumes in the styles of these swashbucklers of this movie are also the part of the fashion world.
Some other films have also been produced on the adventures of the pirates. One more name that we can take in this regard is Anne of the Indies produced in 1951. The movie has a fictional raider name Anne Providence, who is the fictional depiction of the historical freebooter named Anne Bonny. Moreover, the fictional depiction of Blackbeard can also be seen in this film.
There is no doubt that these outlaw pirates have a lot to provide the present day people.

I've been hearing the buzz on The Liaison Capitol Hill Hotel's Tone, Taste, Tan program here in D.C. It's a fun Sunday filled with yoga on the roof, breakfast at Art & Soul (one of my fave DC restaurants) and lounging by the pool.
I'm planning a self-love day in DC next month before my crazy life changes in the fall. This will definitely be on calendar for August. I only hope on the Sunday I choose that Faith will be leading the class. She's a dynamic teacher and the first DC instructor to be on the cover of Yoga Journal.
Reservations are required. I'll see you on the roof.

Ask Shenn
Senior Member
"I see..." He said looking down at the ground for a moment. "I suppose you and Evelynn are doing well?" He said. No one could really tell how he was feeling at the moment, since he was trying to stay as emotionless as possible, but even then it was pretty hard.
Shen noticed her wiping away those tears. Oh wow he felt bad. "I see... I suppose it's just another mistake to learn from. I would know, as you can tell by the state I am in now." He said looking down at his food... Suddenly... He didn't feel all that hungry.
Shen was still looking at his food. "I didn't do this to get away from you..." He said. "I just... Needed some time to think, and gather opinions. When I lost control at the sparring grounds... Lee Sin said I could I be free, and be able to live a life like any other person... Or I could go back to being the Eye." He said. He looked back up at her. "What do you think?"
((Sorry for the late reply I had to do something.)) Shen makes no reaction to her touching her face. "It's not you who is weak. It's me. Years and years of training. All my life have worked for what I am today, and I dropped everything within a day... But... I really do want to ask about your opinion." He then looked back to his food only taking a bit out of it. He then looked back up to her. "Why... Why don't you want me to leave? This was my mistake. It's me who lost control. Sure you may have too but..." He said looking back at down at his food. He couldn't make the words come out of his mouth.

Case | HBS Case Collection | December 2014 Muñoz Group: Sustaining Vertical Integration Through Innovation Jose B. Alvarez and Annelena Lobb Muñoz Group, which supplied supermarket chains and food distribution chains around the world with fruit, flowers, juice and ice cream, was at a strategic crossroads in 2014. CEO Alvaro Muñoz had to choose the best way to achieve profit goals and provide his company with a sustainable competitive advantage. The company had already developed innovative citrus, grape and flower breeding units in efforts to keep its product pipeline on the cutting edge. The company also worked to integrate vertically—to own or control every viable piece of the supply chain—in an effort to manage the flower and produce businesses from plant to retailer. The company's stronghold was its UK and European markets, but it had expanded into North America and also eyed new opportunities in Asia. Muñoz had to decide where to focus his efforts against a backdrop of margin squeezes in the food business, competition for product from the developing world, ever more stringent quality, sustainability, and environmental standards from clients, and perennial hiring challenges.
