Fishing trawlers banned up to a distance of 10 km. from the coast
Olive Ridley turtles have started to arrive for mating in sea near Rushikulya rookery in Ganjam district of south Odisha.
Adequate security arrangement has been made for protection of these endangered turtles. According to Berhampur Divisional Forest Officer (DFO), S.S.Mishra during past few days sporadic mating of Olive Ridleys was being observed in sea near the rookery. At present, on an average, around 30 to 40 mating turtle pairs were being observed in the sea. Mating of Olive Ridleys picks up in this area in last week of December and January.
As precautionary measure fishing by trawlers in the sea near the rookery up to a distance of ten kilometres from sea coast has been banned from Nov 1 till end of May. This has been done to enable safe mating, nesting of Olive Ridleys and secure return of turtle hatchlings after they hatch on the Rushikulya rookery coast.
Forest department has started using two boats to patrol the area to check illegal entry of fishing trawlers into this region. One of these boats was of forest department while the other trawler used for patrolling purpose had been hired. As per the DFO during patrolling some trawlers from Andhra Pradesh had been rounded by the forest department patrols in recent past. They were sent back after warning as they were not found to be fishing. "If after this any fishing trawlers were located in the area where fishing has been banned they would be seized," said the DFO.
With the arrival of Olive Ridleys to this coast, some carcasses of these marine turtles have also started to float down to the Ganjam coast line. According to forest officials, till now they had located twenty carcasses of the turtles on this coast. Most of them had died of natural causes. Forest officials were too cautious about the fishing trawlers as they were major cause of death of these turtles.
Forest department was also arranging for a floating jetty to be established near Purunabandha village to help in patrolling and vigil of the sea during the mating, nesting and hatching time of the turtles.
Usually the males return after the mating season. But the females stay near this coast till nesting. They come down to the coast for mass nesting usually from last week of February. But their sporadic nesting starts from end of January. After laying their eggs and burying them in sand, the mother turtles also return. The eggs incubate on their due to the heat of sand and they hatch after 45 days. The newborn hatchlings return back to sea without any assistance from their parents.

WASTE MONEYSubmitted by SAD (not verified) on Tue, 05/12/2009 - 1:24pm.
The post office is just like the government , they waste money and then raise taxes, or in this case raise stamps. I think it is ridiculous that the post office has been caught red-handed for buying houses from postmasters, some over 1 million dollars, and not being able to sell them. (Sound familar, GM, Crysler,etc.. same concept)

Jameika Hoskins liked the view from the bench Tuesday night. Opponents of the Aberdeen High School girls basketball team shouldnt be comforted, though, because Hoskins doesnt figure to spend much time there this season. The senior forward had a seat on the sidelines because she was recovering from flu-like symptoms and first-year coach Latorrence Bivens wanted to give her time to recover. The Lady Bulldogs didnt miss a beat without Hoskins and starters Michelle Stewart and Dayana McGee thanks to the play of Janee Hodges and Regina Barker
CALEDONIA Its only one game, but Brandon Webber showed Monday night he just might have what it takes to challenge Taylor Chisolms scoring record. Webber kicked off the 2009-10 season in style by scoring three goals to lead the Caledonia High School boys soccer team to a 3-1 victory against New Hope in the season opener for both teams.
VERNON, Ala. The playoffs are a chance to shine. Lamar Countys Marcquis Plant was the latest Bulldog to have his night in the spotlight, and it came at the right time.
Theres something magical about the fourth quarter for Jaquez Johnson and Chuck Tillery when the Starkville High School football team plays Columbus. A year ago, Johnson connected with Tillery for two touchdown passes to help the Yellow Jackets score 22 unanswered points in the fourth quarter in a come-from-behind victory. On Friday, there was more riding on the outcome, which made the fourth-quarter heroics even sweeter.
VERNON, Ala. Undefeated Lamar County High School had posted back-to-back shutouts entering its game against Red Bay in the opening round of the Class 2A playoffs. Coach Ken Adams said he wasnt worried about getting a third shutout in a row Friday night as long as Lamar County won. Adams didnt have much to worry about as the Bulldogs rolled to a 42-0 victory.
REFORM, Ala. Top-seeded Pickens County needed to re-establish itself in the first round of the Class 2A playoffs coming off its first loss of the season to rival Gordo in its regular-season finale. The Tornadoes did just that, lighting up the scoreboard for 43 first-half points in a 57-24 victory against Keith..
MACON It wasnt the prettiest game in the history of the Noxubee County High School football program, but coach M.C. Miller will take it. The Tigers surrendered their second-most points in a game this season, had more 100 yards in penalties, and committed three turnovers, but mustered enough offense to defeat New Albany 36-17 Friday night in the first round of the Mississippi High School Activities Association Class 4A North Half State playoffs.
WEST POINT After routing its fourth opponent in a row, the West Point High School football team is ready for its first challenge of the Mississippi High School Activities Association Class 5A North Half State playoffs. We just want to take care of business each week, regardless what the competition is, West Point coach Chris Chambless said West Point completed a 7-0 district march Friday night with a 37-7 victory against Hernando.
LOUISVILLE There was some question going into the Louisville High School football teams first-round Mississippi High School Activities Association Class 4A North Half State playoff matchup as to whether sophomore wide receiver C.J. Bates would play. The Warriors of Pontotoc High School left the turf of Louisvilles R.E. Hinze Stadium on Friday night wishing he had not. Bates caught seven passes, including one for a touchdown that led to LHS tying the game late, and intercepted a pass on the last play of the game to spark the Wildcats to a 28-21 double-overtime win.
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. Winning football championships has become contagious at Victory Christian Academy. Victory Christian won its second-consecutive title, and third in four years, Friday by beating Tuscaloosa Christian 49-6 in the Christian Football Association championship game. Parker Eaves completed 9 of 11 passes for 320 yards and threw four touchdown passes to lead Victory Christian (10-0) to its second consecutive undefeated season.
INDIANOLA Terrance Dentry rushed for 155 yards and scored both of his teams touchdowns Friday night to lead the New Hope High School football team past Gentry 14-0 in its final game of the regular season. New Hope (9-1, 6-1 Class 5A, Region 1) scored all its points in the first half as Dentry scored on a 24-yard run in the first quarter and on a 3-yard run in the second quarter. Dentry finished the regular season with 1,010 yards.
The timing is right for East Mississippi Community College. At 2 p.m. Saturday, the No. 7 EMCC football team will take on two-time defending state champion and No. 3 Mississippi Gulf Coast C.C. for the Mississippi Association of Community & Junior Colleges (MACJC) state championship at EMCCs Sullivan-Windham Field. If EMCC President Dr. Rick Youngs dream comes true, the Lions would be able to play host to playoff games and future state title games at a new multi-sport stadium on campus.
Bubba Davis and Bill Lee have playoffs on their minds. Unfortunately, only one mans team could get to realize those dreams. That will be the storyline at 7 tonight when Davis Columbus High football team plays host to Lees Starkville Yellow Jackets. Starkville and Columbus enter the game at 3-7, but the Yellow Jackets are 3-3 in Class 6A, Region 1, District 2 and the Falcons are 2-4. All Starkville has to do is win and its in the playoffs.
WEST POINT Tommy Keys and his defensive linemates dont need an elaborate answer to explain their success. Like their counterparts on the offensive line, Keys and the rest of the West Point High School defensive linemen have a one-track mind and they explode from there. Youve got to want to first, Keys said. Everybody else relies on us because if we get blown back everybody else is going to get blown back.
ABERDEEN Fred Ward and Channing Ward dont want people to forget about the Aberdeen High School football team. At the beginning of the season, the Bulldogs were the talk of the area and the state. Many people thought they were going to run the table and secure an easy road to the Class 3A state title game in Jackson. An injury to starting quarterback Aaron Andrews played a role in an opening-season loss to Class 6A Columbus and a loss to Class 4A Pontotoc in week three, but the Bulldogs have regrouped and are ready to make their playoff run.
CALEDONIA Everything came together last season for Morgan Mansfield and the Caledonia High School boys soccer team. The first-year coach needed time to mold a senior-laden team into form, but things took off when the pieces solidified. This season, the Confederates will have to find a way to replace six seniors who played key roles in a 14-5 school-best season and a trip to the Class 4A North Half State title game. Even though Caledonia wont be as experienced as it was last season, Mansfield is excited about what his team can accomplish this season.
Bruce Allsup likes his mix of players. Sometimes coaches have the luxury of dealing with senior-laden teams that can adjust to nearly every situation. Other years, coaches have to take a step back and start fresh with inexperienced squads. This season, Allsup figures to have a mix of both with his Heritage Academy girls basketball team. Seniors Madison Ford, Morgan Lott, and Carolina Borland will lead a 12-player team that features four juniors and five sophomores.
Everything came together Friday night for Trevor Eaves. It was motivation enough that Eaves and the Central Academy football team had to face archrival Kemper Academy on Senior Night in their regular-season finale. The game carried added motivation because Kemper Academy knocked Central Academy out of the playoffs last season. To make matters even bigger, the Vikings needed a victory to help force a tie atop the Mississippi Association of Independent Schools eight-man District I standings.
A variety of weapons has helped the Victory Christian football team overcome an assortment of obstacles this season. Like many of the other teams in the state of Mississippi, the Eagles have dealt with enough rain to last five seasons. The rain has left Victory Christians home field as well as many of its opponents fields a soggy mess.
Lamar County High School football coach Ken Adams thinks its an accomplishment that his team made it through the regular season with an undefeated record. But Adams and the Bulldogs want more.

Read J.J. Abrams' Heartfelt Note to the 'Star Wars: Episode 7′ Cast and Crew as Filming Begins
Director J.J. Abrams and the cast and crew of 'Star Wars: Episode 7' have an uphill battle ahead of them as they launch the new trilogy in the 'Star Wars' franchise. How do you motivate your team when you're embarking on one of the biggest and riskiest cinematic ventures in recent history? Well, as filming began on Friday, J.J. Abrams wrote a note to inspire everyone working on the film (and, it might just get 'Star Wars' fans excited too).
'Star Wars: Episode 7′ Officially Begins Filming, Plus Your First Official Photo From the Set!
The force is almost with you. 'Star Wars: Episode 7,' which opens in theaters on December 18, 2015, officially began filming earlier this morning and we already have our first official photo tweeted from the set!
'Neighbors' Review
It's hell getting old. You're overworked, underpaid, get grey hairs, everything hurts, there's barely time for sex, you fall asleep on the couch watching 'Game of Thrones' and, unless you're George Clooney, you're just not cool anymore. You either hike up your pants and accept it, or you wage all out war. It's the latter that highlights the uproarious Seth Rogen and Zac Efron comedy 'Neighbors,' which just might be the funniest American movie since ... well, since Seth Rogen's last movie.
Has the 'Star Wars: Episode 7′ Title Been Revealed?
The 'Star Wars: Episode 7' casting hasn't even been completed, with roles both major and supporting still left to be announced, so it seems a bit premature to already have the new 'Star Wars' title, but has it leaked online in advance of an official announcement?
Find Out Who's Who in the 'Star Wars: Episode 7′ Cast Photo With This Handy Graphic
Yesterday, the 'Star Wars: Episode 7' cast was announced, revealed alongside a group photo of the assembled team at the first table read in London. At the time, we only had a Facebook-sized photo, which made it somewhat difficult to parse who's who. Now, we've gotten our hands on a big, hi-res version and we've added some annotations so you clearly see who was in attendance.
'Star Wars: Episode 7′ Announces Cast, Original Stars Confirmed to Return
'Star Wars: Episode 7' has finally announced its cast after a long process that has spanned months of speculation and rumors. The stars of the original trilogy - Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and Kenny Baker - have finally been confirmed, and they'll be joined by newcomers to the franchise Oscar Isaac, John Boyega, Max von Sydow, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Andy Serkis and Domhnall Gleeson.
Original 'Star Wars' Cast All Spotted in London as 'Episode 7′ is Set to Begin Filming
Listen, we all know 'Star Wars: Episode 7' will bring back Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford. It has yet to be confirmed by Lucasfilm or Disney, but it's perhaps the worst-kept secret in Hollywood. But, if you need some additional confirmation ahead of the official 'Star Wars: Episode 7' cast announcement (rumored to be taking place on May 4), we do have word that all three of the original cast members were spotted in London this weekend as filming is set to begin.
'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' TV Spot Premieres During 'The Walking Dead' Season Finale
A new 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' TV spot aired during the 'Walking Dead' season finale and if you missed it, a) it was awesome, and b) we have it for you right here in HD.
Ellen's Oscar Selfie Was Part of a $20 Million Samsung Ad Buy With ABC
Did you think that bit at the Oscars where host Ellen DeGeneres wandered into the audience to tweet a selfie with A-listers like Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep, Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper was a refreshing moment of spontaneity in an otherwise scripted affair? Wrong. The viral photo was actually part of a $20 million Samsung advertising campaign designed to promote the Galaxy Note 3, the phone that took the picture.
President Obama: "We're Building an Iron Man"
President Barack Obama spoke at a Manufacturing Innovation event on Tuesday and announced two new public-private manufacturing innovation institutes – in Chicago and Detroit - with a surprising revelation: "I'm here to announce that we're building Iron Man."
Jimmy Fallon Kicks Off 'The Tonight Show' With Will Smith, Tina Fey, Seth Rogen and Tons of Special Guests
Last night, Jimmy Fallon officially ushered in a new era of 'The Tonight Show' and, besides a move to New York City, already made the show his own. Can you imagine Jay Leno ever doing The Humpty Dance in a "The Evolution of Hip-Hop Dancing"?
'Anchorman 2′ Now Has Its Own Line of Ron Burgundy-Inspired Underwear
We've seen some odd product placement/endorsement deals in our time, but this one just might take the cake. With a slogan that reads, "Give your little Anchorman the support he needs," 'Anchorman 2' and Jockey have teamed up for a series of Ron Burgundy-inspired tighty-whiteys. Except they're not white and come in colors like "Sex Panther Red" and "Beard of Zeus Blue."

Google: How It Could Hit $1,000
On the earnings call, Google said viewers are watching 4 billion hours of videos a month, and that's translating to advertising revenue, with advertisers increasing their spend 50% from 2011 to 2012. The top 25 advertisers now spend over $150 million each per year on YouTube, helping Google's move to mobile.
The bear case on Google has always been that mobile does not monetize as well as desktop, be it search or ads, but recent trends suggest differently. Kirjner notes that Google Sites revenue grew 20% year over year. That takes into account PC search, mobile search and YouTube. If PC search growth is declining with the overall PC decline, than perhaps mobile is monetizing better than people think.
Kirjner places heavy importance on mobile, and others on Wall Street agree. Following Google's earnings report, J.P. Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth wrote that he feels better about the mobile transition going forward. "As the business continues to shift toward mobile and advertisers think holistically about clicks rather than about which devices they're coming from, we think the Street will as well, and that bodes well for Google," he wrote, in a research note.
As mobile becomes more prevalent in day to day life, the fear is that apps would hurt Google's core business, specifically e-commerce. Amazon (AMZN - Get Report) and eBay (EBAY - Get Report) account for almost a third of all Internet e-commerce, but so far, that has not affected Google's search revenue. Kirjner believes that Google gets 20% to 25% of its search revenue from e-commerce, but if every user shifts to apps, "the impact on Google search revenue growth will be material but limited." As Google continues to diversify and move into other revenue streams, Kirjner believes there's a chance for innovation from these streams, such as the aforementioned Google Glass. Aside from YouTube, there's also the display business and the device business (which includes Google's Nexus lineup and the Motorola offerings), as well as Google Play. Recent rumors suggest that Google could launch its own retail stores to show off the new hardware attached to the Google name, but according to sources close to the situation, the rumors could be overblown. Google is growing at such leaps and bounds, with years of research and development starting to pay off. It almost seems that a share price of $1,000 is inevitable, as long as the company continues to execute on its plan. Not bad for a company that started out of a Stanford lab. --Written by Chris Ciaccia in New York >Contact by Email. Follow @Commodity_BullCheck Out Our Best Services for Investors

Trip Start

Trip End
Aug 2010
We are back at the training center and will be here for a few days getting our last round of shots (yeah!) and sitting in on a few more training sessions. And..... on Monday we finally get to find out where our permanent sites will be! There has been a lot of speculation, but none of us really have no idea what to expect. I will be sure to let you all know where Mike will be for the next two years ASAP.
I really don't have much else for you. I got caught in another sand storm. My goat nemesis is still his ornery self. I did, however, want to put up a few photos of Mbalal for you. Mbalal is a small village about 30km outside of Rosso where myself and the rest of the GEE trainees went to for a field trip today. Highlight....I saw my first camel. I was/am pretty excited about that.
Ok. More later. Enjoy the pics!

Within Its First Year, 14 Million Plastic Bottles Recycled Into Haggar Clothing Co.'s LK Life Khaki™ Brand Made With REPREVE®
Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Haggar Clothing Co. announces its one year anniversary of its highly successful LK Life Khaki™ brand. With its modernized design and eco-friendly fabrications, LK Life Khaki pants are made with an innovative blend of cotton and REPREVE® fibers. REPREVE is an essential fabric ingredient that contains recycled materials, including plastic bottles. Each pant contains the equivalent of seven recycled plastic bottles, making Haggar the first menswear brand to bring sustainable options to the mainstream market. Within the first year of production of the LK Life Khaki brand, it is estimated that more than 14 million plastic bottles have been recycled.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121114/DA12364)
"With the LK Life Khaki line, we set out with the intent of reaching a younger consumer by way of new products that fit his lifestyle with the added benefit of being eco-friendly," said Michael Stitt, CEO of Haggar. "Not only did we get his attention, but also a larger share of his closet, which is reflective of the significant growth trend that we are experiencing within this brand."
Designed to change the way men buy khakis, the LK Life Khaki collection features an array of fits including slim, relaxed and straight that were designed for multiple wearing occasions. Men have shown that they appreciate how LK Life Khakis pants can take them from work to a barbeque, a wedding, or even a job interview. The LK Life Khaki line is available in more than 2,200 locations including leading department stores in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, as well as online.
"Our work with the LK Life Khaki brand is an exciting opportunity to educate the consumer that plastic bottles don't belong in landfills; they can be recycled into products like casual clothes, performance apparel, socks and even car interiors," said Roger Berrier, president and COO for Unifi, the makers of REPREVE. As eco-concerns arise, companies like Haggar and Unifi are realizing their need to analyze and reduce their environmental footprint. Haggar's use of REPREVE recycled fibers in the LK Life Khaki collection demonstrates a commitment to the environment.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Ashmore is a village and civil parish in the North Dorset district of Dorset, England; situated south-west of Salisbury. The local travel links are located from the village to Tisbury railway station and to Bournemouth International Airport. The main road running through the village is North Road. The parish has a population of 188 according to the 2011 Census. It is situated on Cranborne Chase five miles (8 km) south east of Shaftesbury. The village consists of a church and 83 old stone cottages and farms, many with thatched roofs. The village is situated on chalk rock which is permeable and therefore dry, and the village is built around a clay-lined dew pond which provided water before pipes were installed. This pond or "mere" is what gave the village its original name of "Ashmere". At over above sea level the village is the highest in Dorset. The village is situated on the Roman road from Bath to Badbury Rings, and the pond may have been significant in Roman times. It is probable that there was a settlement at Ashmore in Roman times, though the village name is Saxon and there is little Roman archaeology in the village. Ashmore is an inhabited place.

Lifestyles of the Rich and Shameless (rmx) LyricsArtist: Lost BoyzAlbum: Legal Drug Money Take a trip into my set How much you wanna make a bet my peoples struggle for the shit they get They steady fuckin' with theses coppers and their scams Me and my man are power moving caravans It's hectic coming up in the gutter When they say they have no work they make you hustle for you bread and butter And everybody's ill I know kids around my way who get a thrill from seeing blood spill Now who's the one to blame my friend For bringing guns into the states and knockin' down my men And keeping them inside the pen until they figure out when To let my people on the street until they frame 'em again Now listen, there's no way to escape I got the test to show the well now you're just what it takes Mr. Cheeks and LB fam illegal drug thugs kid The game was hotter than a flame so out the game I slid Chorus: Lifestyles of the rich see some die nameless all the same game it's time to move a muscle, see the year's nine-five everybody's gotta hustle. This nigga Jack he owns the block Not an ordinary thug around the way or in the drug spot He drives a black Mercedes-Benz Be in the bar with the local drug stars and his lady friends Now understand he's getting cheese His life is all about rollin' dice with G's getting nice flipping keys That's some way to live I guess somebody's gotta do the taking if nobody wants to give Making moves with his peeps outta town Shorty with the work, his man got the four-pound He's getting bigger than his jeans Setting up niggaz for cream, beatin' down crack fiends Lickin' shots at the jam Coming up with ill scams, faking jacks on his man Now how long will that last Until his time runs out and someone gets up in his ass Chorus This chick Yvette was getting cash She had this block up in the smash, her lifestyle was living fast Cocaine, champagne always pop [pop pop] Her and her friends making ends hoe hopping Licking shots down with undercover cops Getting paid helping cops raid drug spots Shorty's on some wild shit Getting niggaz for their chips on some pretty girl smile shit Her downfall was getting nice I heard that crime don't pay but somebody has to pay the price So who's the one to lose Baby girl OD'ed over caine when she blew a fuse You're 'bout to hold your guns and your vest Budda, Cess, may your soul rest Some you win some you lose But that all goes along with the lifestyle that you choose Chorus

Chicagoans packed a town hall meeting Tuesday evening to launch a new social and economic justice agenda for the city. Progress Illinois was there to learn more about "Take Back Chicago."
State officials are looking into the possibility of using the now-shuttered Illinois Youth Center in Joliet as a place to house mentally ill prison inmates, an Illinois Department of Corrections spokesman told The Herald-News.
Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart sat down with journalist Steve Kroft for a "60 Minutes" interview that aired Sunday about the issue of housing inmates at Cook County Jail who have some form of mental illness.
Stigma and misconceptions about people with mental illness can create major barriers when it comes to them accessing housing, employment and other services and supports, according to panelists at a Chicago town hall meeting on the topic Thursday.
Janice Parker, a panelist and assistant director of consumer affairs at the Illinois Institute of Technology's Center on Adherence and Self Determination, said she's suffered from severe depression, anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder due to a previous abusive marriage. She says she has faced discrimination numerous times just due to her illness. For example, when she tried to receive a government-provided medical card when her condition made it too difficult for her to work, she was told, "Well, you don't look sick to me."
But Parker, who is African American, said what's really bothersome is that she's felt stigmatized the most within her own community.
"In our community, women aren't supposed to be tired," Parker said at the discussion, hosted by Access Living. "We're not supposed to be overburdened. [They say], 'Buck up ... Stop being a wimp."
A new mental health center is set to be opened in Centreville after state regulators approved plans to build a $10 million facility at a hospital located in the state's southwest region.
The concept of a social safety net in Illinois is under attack, according to Chicago activists who spoke out at a forum Monday evening regarding threats to public services. Members of the the Alliance For Community Services and other groups offered up various ways to avoid future social services cuts. Progress Illinois was there to learn more.
AFSCME Council 31 is urging lawmakers to support a pay raise for caregivers in community institutions.
More than 100 people participated in the "Going Home" rally yesterday at the Illinois Statehouse in Springfield, calling on legislators to support the closing of state institutions and expand community living options for people with disabilities.
Former State Rep. Robin Kelly of Matteson has won the Illinois 2nd Congressional District's primary election Tuesday to become the Democratic nominee in the race to fill the seat left vacant by disgraced former congressman Jesse Jackson Jr.
Kelly will run in the district's April 9 general election to replace Jackson Jr., who pled guilty last week to misusing some $750,000 in campaign funds.
With more than half of the district's 545 precincts reporting, Kelly won the special primary with 54 percent of the vote. Major contenders during Kelly's campaign were Democratic candidates former congresswoman Debbie Halvorson and Chicago Ald. Anthony Beale (9th).

Morgan Lewis insurance recovery lawyers represent policyholders on a national and international basis and provide a seamless, cross-border, and cross-disciplinary solution to clients' needs. We are both advisers and trial lawyers, with experience in insurance law at its intersection with bankruptcy, tax, securities, and transactional law. We act for clients to realize their broad goal of asset protection and recovery. This involves asset preservation as well as asset recovery, including tax minimization or deferral from insurance recoveries. Our insurance recovery lawyers literally "wrote the book"—and recently have added important chapters—on the insurance implications of bankruptcy, including Section 524(g) of the United States Bankruptcy Code; on the use of "private" asset protection and tax-efficient vehicles such as qualified settlement funds or trusts authorized by Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 468B; and on the use of derivatives and security devices to assure long-term insurance responsiveness.
Seamless Teams for Cross-Disciplinary Solutions
The members of our group are full-time insurance law attorneys, most of whom have focused on this area of law throughout their legal careers. As a result, our more senior members have not only studied insurance principles and precedent, but have been instrumental in shaping this area of law as it has evolved over the past three decades. What sets us apart from others?
- We have a truly national and international practice, with policyholder insurance recovery lawyers practicing regularly in 18 of our firm's 26 offices.
- We are trial lawyers, appearing in court on a daily basis and trying several major cases every year.
- We are deal lawyers, structuring long-term, complex, negotiated solutions to insurance disputes, with transactional sophistication equal to that of traditional corporate lawyers, with almost $1 billion in such deals negotiated and entered into over the last year.
- We are sensitive to tax issues, preserving assets and insurance recoveries through Section 468B trusts and qualified settlement funds. (One of our Chambers-rated partners is a member of the U.S. Tax Court.)
- We are familiar with securities laws, knowledgeable about Sarbanes-Oxley and other federal and state securities laws (one of our Chambers-rated partners is a long-time director of a New York Stock Exchange company), and able to use this knowledge in D&O and fiduciary liability coverage disputes.
- We have both breadth and depth, with more than 40 lawyers and 15 partners dedicated to this practice, working together as an integrated team.
- We are "cutting edge" both in terms of our willingness and ability to take risk, and in our desire to advance innovative coverage approaches as the law in our area of practice develops.
Breadth and Diversity
We maintain a multijurisdictional, complex litigation practice that involves an array of physical and legal settings. We take pride in our ability to handle all aspects of insurance coverage litigation, including sensitive negotiated resolutions, trials before juries and judges, and appellate practice. Our cases are geographically diverse—extending from coast to coast—and exemplify the breadth of our practice. For example, our cases involve the following:
- Property policies and catastrophic losses (such as Hurricane Katrina)
- Corporate-owned life insurance losses
- Intellectual property coverage advice
- D&O and fiduciary liability policies, including securities-related losses and options backdating
- Successful reorganization pursuant to Section 524g of the United States Bankruptcy Code
- Use of IRC Section 468B–qualified settlement funds in lieu of bankruptcy reorganization to provide dedicated asset protection
- Long-term structured transactions
- Business interruption loss
- Environmental, silica, and asbestos-related disputes under general liability, umbrella, and excess policies
- MtBE suits
- Derivative liability in the case of insurer liquidation or insolvency
- Coverage for sexual abuse claims
- Collection litigation to enforce settlements
- Coverage for civilian contractor casualties in the Iraq war
Advisory Practice
Many of our clients have asked our lawyers to assist them with due diligence being conducted in connection with corporate acquisitions and other transactions. We bring a unique perspective to due diligence that allows us to analyze a target company's insurance portfolio, review its claims history, and advise our clients as to issues we see that might not otherwise be apparent.
But our advising work is not limited to the transactional setting. We regularly advise our clients on their insurance programs and seek out ways to improve them.

National Youth Leadership Training
"What I got out of NYLT was a reality check. I come from an affluent family and both of my parents are physicians. If it wasn't for NYLT, I could have easily been a spoiled kid unaware of my place in society and living in my own world. For this I am truly thankful." —Faraz Qaisrani, 2008 participant
The National Youth Leadership Training is powering the next generation of leaders. While racism, classism, and oppression affect us all, young people are among the most vulnerable. But with the right resources and adult allies to support them — youth make meaningful change happen.
For youth, NYLT is a life-changing week of adventure, self-discovery, cultural exchange, leadership-building, and service. Adult mentors — the critical connection point between the youth taking charge and the resources provided by the National Youth Leadership Council — gain the skills needed to support these youth in creating a year-long plan of action.
Youth arrive with a range of leadership experiences, and leave with:
- The ability to work together with people of different races, ethnicities, genders, geographies, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
- Adult allies to support their leadership development and service-learning action plan.
- The tools and knowledge to create equitable change in their communities.
- Motivation to take action for the common good.
- An enhanced awareness of social, political, and environmental issues, including the achievement gap.

The two biggest problems with bringing any computer hardware, especially monitors, into the classroom are size and cost. But with Samsung Electronics' new SyncMaster 570vTFT monitor you can have your cake and eat it too, so to speak, getting a compact 15" flat-panel LCD monitor for under $500.
Taking up about a third of the room of a traditional CRT monitor - measuring 15.2" x 17" x 7" - the 570vTFT offers enhanced TFT viewing with a 1,024 x 768 resolution. The 570vTFT offers USB capability via an optional USB hub, a multimedia base with speakers and a microphone jack. It also consumes 30 percent less power than a similar-sized CRT monitor.
A benefit for students is the monitor's built-in plug-and-play capability that allows for easy installation and optimum configuration. This feature will also work with the appropriate hardware and software to automatically configure a monitor with the host computer, selecting the optimum resolution and refresh rates to provide crisp detail, bright colors and razor-sharp images. For instructors, the 570vTFT is designed ergonomically to allow for wall mounting on any standard mounting arm.
The 570vTFT is lightweight at 15 lbs. and its controls are easily accessible at the bottom front of the monitor. In addition, its menu system is easy to navigate, making adjustments simple enough for any student. The monitor's only problem areas are its limited tilting angle and accessibility to its connectors. With the power and signal connectors attached vertically to the monitor through its base, it's difficult to reach the connectors, especially since the screen d'esn't tilt up far enough to gain easy access. But the overall simplicity of the 570vTFT combined with its impressive image quality and affordable price should please everyone.

text: Patience is Certainly a VirtueWhoever coined the phrase "Patience is a virtue" knew what they were talking about.As a tactical person, Loki prided himself on learning the art of waiting and knowing when was the most opportune time to strike.Unlike the warriors of Asgard, who had a tendency to slaughter first and ask questions later, Loki had discovered that if one was patient enough, one could win the battle permanently. Loki had used this tactic in many a fight against his enemies (and a few occasions in which he left Thor on the marble floors of the sparing rooms, shell-shocked and dumbfounded).Oh, but nothing could compare to the thrill of a well laid out plan. Even at a young age Loki had known the importance of being patient when planning out his little ploys. The feeling of anxiety bubbling up as he set his trap into motion, the questions of, "Could this really work?" and, "Will they fall for such a thing?" always flooding through his mind. Then he would hear a startled gasp or scream, a yelp

I was pronouncing non-sequitur as non-se-quee-tur instead of non-se-quit-er, as I had only read it. I was corrected at lunch in front of friends, which I thought was a touch harsh given I was using the word correctly.
DAVID BROOKS is a columnist for the New York Times, a regular analyst on America's nerdiest television channel (PBS), and the author of several books that aspire to explain the details of hard social science. He's definitely at the more intellectual end of the pundit class. So I was a little surprised to hear him mispronounce "cavil" last night, putting the stress on the second syllable. (It should be "CA-vil.") It's just the kind of word the slightly owlish, bespectacled Mr Brooks should love.
I wasn't alone in noticing the slip. Kory Stamper, an editor at Merriam-Webster (with a popular online dictionary), tweets that "cavil" was the most looked-up word on the site this morning. And Peter Sokolowski, one of her colleagues, tweeted "Did you catch his \auto-MAY-tawn\ last week?" I hadn't, and now I was even more surprised.
But the spelling and pronunciation of English is a godawful mess, as everyone knows. And there is little to be learned from looking down on people who mispronounce literary words that are rarely heard aloud. In fact, what would we guess about people who do this frequently? Perhaps that they learned these words from reading, without the kind of friends or education where they would hear the words spoken aloud; autodidacts, in other words, the kind of people we should encourage, not ridicule. This doesn't quite apply to Mr Brooks, who went to a well-known private school in New York and then the University of Chicago. But I'm inclined to be charitable. I realised recently that I'd misread for my entire life the word "uncial", which I had mentally seen and heard as "unical". Thank goodness it never comes up in conversation, unless you need a font for the menu at your Irish pub.
And as the book says, let him who is without sin cast the first stone. As for the rest of you: is there a word you had mentally recorded with the wrong pronunciation for an embarrassingly long time? Were you ever found out, or were you saved by hearing someone else use it correctly first?

I was pronouncing non-sequitur as non-se-quee-tur instead of non-se-quit-er, as I had only read it. I was corrected at lunch in front of friends, which I thought was a touch harsh given I was using the word correctly.
Until I moved to Australia, I spent most of my life pronouncing 'scones' like 'cones' not knowing most people (or at least Australians) pronounce it like 'cons'.
I still insist on my (plainly superior) pronounciation, if only to watch my friends' and colleagues' amusing fits of rage.
Bom-ba-DEEr is perfect for me at least; is it not simply a French word with the emphasis on the last syllable?
Interesting, and it really seems that intelligence is no protection against such offences to the ears: one very bright chap I know pronounces 'tier' as 'tyer', not the 'tear(drop)' I use. I'd love to know what I pronounce weirdly, but then I was once described as 'daunting' so maybe people are too shy to correct me!
On a different tack I've sometimes asked Finns if an English accent in Finnish was attractive or ugly, to get no reply, so I suspect that it's the second....
Which reminds me, when in London a friend wanted to meet near Less-ter Square. I could not find it anywhere. Leicester? Really?
One from just today: ennui
I am not French so I suppose that's why it didn't come naturally.
Vigorous. As a 9 yr old who had only seen (and obviously not read clearly enough) the word in print, I read "Vye-GOR-ious" aloud in class, and still cringe at the laughs and public correction.
Oh, also "Bom-ba-DEEr" for bombardier.
I've read entire books without bothering to say aloud to myself the character's names, so they go on being wildly mispronounced (in my mind) until I have occasion to speak about them, my apologies to the Brothers Karamazov in particular.
Also, ever since a memorable Simpsons episode I now pronounce the Gym as a 'gyme' rather than 'jim'.
Let's not forget the master of names that don't sound like they look, the man who gave us Bertie and Jeeves, P. G. Wodehouse.
Have been forced to hear debridement pronounced de-bride-ment as in get rid of a bride.
or india
When I was younger I thought the word 'awry' was pronounced 'aur-ie', until I heard an MP get heckled in Parliament for saying just that.
As a young child just learning how to read I pronounced Disney as "Disnep". I could not see how the P at the end could be silent.. I blame it on the 'confusing' hand-writing of the Disney logo.
Hyperbole - I once pronounced it "hyper-bole". I still squirm at the memory.
A very well read friend, now deceased, admitted that as a young man, when reading, he always pronounced to himself the word "misled" as "mizzled". "She mizzled me". I do not know how he discovered his error, but I have always felt that his pronunciation was onomatopoeic (or am I using that word incorrectly?).
I have to admit to feeling a faint twitch when I hear 'harrass' or 'cavil' pronounced with the stress on the second syllable but, ultimately, it's not terribly important, and, in the case of 'harrass', pretty much a lost cause.
Words I mispronounced until relatively recently: 'polymath', 'hegemony'.
First time I'd heard the word "ba-NAL", I almost corrected the person, thinking that the correct pronunciation would be "BA-nal". I'm glad that I chose to limit my reaction to a smug smile; that would have been embaRASSing.
I have always held that english is a guttural, primitive language with no rules of pronounciation. Be kind to yourself, learn spanish.
Not so much wrong pronunciation, but more wrong pronunciation for my accent. I was born and bred in London and yet I don't rhyme 'hoof' and 'roof'. Only realised when a friend pointed this out to me. For 'roof' I say the, pretty standard in these parts "r-OO-f", yet for 'hoof' I say "h'FF".
No idea where that came from.
I confess to my sin here in this very forum:
For years I have thought one of my fellow commentators here was called "Garabonicas". I realized only last year that he was actually "Garaboncias"... Many apologies.

President Obama today argued that the growing gap between the nation's rich and poor poses "a fundamental threat to the American dream," as he outlined a sweeping economic agenda expected to dominate the remainder of his presidency.
Repeating familiar themes, Obama said "a dangerous and growing inequality and lack of upward mobility" is jeopardizing the basic American middle-class tenet that "if you work hard, you have a chance to get ahead."
"This is the defining challenge of our time: making sure our economy works for every working American. That's why I ran for president. It was the center of last year's campaign. It drives everything I do in this office," he said, in remarks he made at an arts and education town hall recreation center in the Anacostia neighborhood of Washington. An official said his remarks preview his State of the Union address.
The president's 50-minute landmark speech was intended to reframe the public debate as he seeks to move past the troubled Obamacare rollout that has consumed Washington for the past two months.
Acknowledging the "poor execution" by his administration, he admitted, "We didn't roll out parts of this law as well as we should have." But he also blamed Republicans and their "reckless shutdown" of the government for why Americans are fed up with Washington.
"Nobody has acquitted themselves very well these past few months. So it's not surprising that the American people's frustrations with Washington are at an all-time high," he said.
To boost job creation and lessen economic disparity, the president reiterated his call for a higher minimum wage, more early childhood education and investments in infrastructure. He did not, however, outline any new legislative initiatives.
The president also continued to tout the economic benefits of the Affordable Care Act, claiming his signature law will help level the inequalities that existed in the broken health care system.
"This law's going to work," he said. "And for the sake of our economic security, it needs to work."
Obama once again challenged his Republican opponents to put forth their own plans to expand economic opportunity, increase wages and reform health care.
"You owe it to the American people to tell us what you are for, not just what you're against," he said to applause. "That way, we can have a vigorous and meaningful debate. That's what the American people deserve. That's what the times demand."

Nikolai Beshkarev, chief of the basketball office of the Soviet Sport Games Department, rarely traveled abroad with the national team. He made an exception to attend a pre-Olympic tournament from June 30 to July 2, 1972, in Munich for the Soviets and three other European squads.
Doug Collins has agreed to a four- year contract to coach the National Basketball Association's Philadelphia 76ers, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported , citing two people it didn't identify.
To Marvin Barnes, an African- American college basketball standout whose run-ins with the law earned him the nickname "Bad News," Tom McMillen was the great white hype.
The Cleveland Cavaliers fired coach Byron Scott while the Philadelphia 76ers announced that Doug Collins resigned, less than 24 hours after both teams played their final games of the National Basketball Association season.
It was more than a routine case of teenage shoplifting.
Philadelphia 76ers coach Doug Collins has resigned after three seasons, the National Basketball Association team said on its Twitter feed.
The Philadelphia 76ers hired Doug Collins as coach, the National Basketball Association team said in a statement.
The Philadelphia 76ers ended their almost four-month search for a coach, hiring San Antonio Spurs' assistant Brett Brown to lead the team through a rebuilding process.
Kevin Garnett had 29 points and 11 rebounds to lead the Boston Celtics to a 92-91 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers in the first game of their best-of-seven National Basketball Association's Eastern Conference semifinal.
"The thing I think about is the amount of work that goes into this."
- Doug Collins on Mar 14, 2014

Crabeater Seal
(Lobodon carcinophagus)
Crabeaters are one the most successful larger mammals. Their estimated population counts forty million seals. They seldom come ashore. They live on the shelf ice and make long journeys around Antarctica. Crabeaters can be recognized by their silver coloured fur. Female crabeaters can reach three meters and can weigh 300 kg. The males are smaller. Crabeaters don't eat crab (by the way crab does not occur on Antarctica), but adore krill and some fish and squid. To catch krill crabeaters have a special set of teeth. There are several tubercles on each tooth with spaces between them that cut deeply into the tooth. The main cusps of upper and lower teeth fit perfectly together. When the crabeater seal closes its mouth, the only spaces are those between the tubercles. This arrangement probably serves as a sieve through which to strain krill, their primary food source. All crabeaters together eat 63 million ton krill a year.
Crabeater pups are born between September and November. During the first four weeks they are nursed by their mother. In this period they gain quickly weight: from 20 to 113 kg. The male defends meanwhile his territory.
Even though there are so many crabeater seals, scientist don't know much about these animals. Crabeater seals live most of the time under the shelf ice which makes observation difficult.
