Is the Kardashian family having crisis talks?
Family matriarch Kris Jenner, as RadarOnline.com has previously reported, has urged her daughter Khloe Kardashian to divorce her cheating and drug plagued husband Lamar Odom.
And now, fans are wondering if the family members are getting together to discuss the troubled situation, as Kris shared a mysterious Keek video on Twitter which she titled, "family meeting."
During her video, posted on Friday night, the momager didn't say why they were having a family meeting, but had gathered together her kids Khloe, Kim, Rob, Kendall, Kylie, Kourtney, and stepson Brody Jenner. But Kim's baby daddy Kanye West and Lamar are nowhere in sight!
EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS: Kardashian Kids Never-Before-Seen Childhood Photos
Kris panned the camera to show the rest of the gang and said, "This is what a family meeting looks like in my house, ladies and gentleman.
"Nobody's paying any attention to me. Nothing ever changes. I have no control."
Then a male voice, which sounded like Rob, shouted, "Turn it off!"
PHOTOS: They Really Did Say It! 50 Outrageous Kardashian Quotes
But what can't be turned off is the continuing Kardashian family crisis surrounding Khloe and Lamar!

The Pelican Inn
Edit Page Last Edit: 3 years 6 months ago
Pelican Inn is a British pub in London that appears in the very first scene of the game. Nate and Sully get into a brawling scene in this compact-spaced pub where they fight off Marlowe's men. As you wonder around the pub after you've defeated the thugs, you can really appreciate what Naughty Dog has brought to the table. Naughty Dog has captured the essense of a British pub, it is highly detailed filled with little small things such as dart board, flag, and pictures on the wall, making you feel like you're in a real pub.

The abundance of weather information available to today's pilots can make it difficult to screen out non-essential data, focus on key facts, and correctly evaluate the risk from a given set of circumstances. This Guide uses the Perceive Process Perform framework to help general aviation (GA) pilots develop skills in obtaining appropriate weather information, interpreting the data in the context of a specific flight, and applying the information and analysis to make safe weather flying decisions.
The goal is to:
Perceive weather hazards that could adversely affect your flight.
Process this information to evaluate risk and identify options.
Perform by acting to mitigate or eliminate the risk.
The guide is organized by the three phases of flight:
Preflight is the time for making overall strategic decisions. The pilot obtains weather information, evaluates its potential impact, and develops a weather flying plan.
During the in-flight phase, the pilot monitors the actual weather, evaluates the need for changes to the weather flying plan, and implements tactical weather decisions to avoid adverse conditions.
The post-flight phase is the time to review various weather aspects of a just-completed flight, and identify "lessons learned" about weather and safe weather flying.

Former Orkay Mills midfielder and a resident of Vasai, Vinod Philip suffered a cardiac arrest and died at the age of 63 while playing in a veterans' tournament in Ambernath on Saturday. Vinod is brother of Premnath Philip, who is former India international.
The 63-year-old did not have health problems as such and his death came as a shock to his close friends Prakash Shetty and Santosh Lucas, who met him minutes before the match.
"Santosh met him after a long time and they were recalling old times before the match. He looked out of shape like most aged footballers. None of us expected him to play. I think he got carried away seeing so many old and known people," said Shetty, his teammate at Orkay.
"I remember him having some health issues three or four years ago but it was nothing major. He was a hard working footballer," said Lucas, who played alongside him for seven years.
Philip's career began with Madras Regiment Centre as a midfielder and then, he also represented Services in the 1980 National Championship. Later, Orkay Mills – which had one of the best teams those days — roped him in.
"He was a versatile player. Though he was a midfielder, you could play him anywhere. I remember one outstanding match he played against JCT Mills in the Federation Cup in Coimbatore in the early 1980s. His passing was out of the world but we had lost the match, I can't recall the exact scoreline," recalled Shetty.
Philip stopped playing in 1984. Currently, he was coaching kids at Vidya Vikasani School, Vasai. He is survived by his wife and a son.

Re: Floyd Mayweather - How will it end?
Not for me.
Martinez is good, very good actually, but he's not really been able to prove his dominance over the 160lb class due to ''politics'' - basically other ''champions'' preferring to fight bus drivers instead.
It's a fight I'd advise Floyd to take at 160 - the welterweight champion defeating the middleweight champion is huge, in any era, the achievement will only be cheapened by doing it at 154 anyway.
Pac.... he's slipped - I'd rather not see that fight now to be honest. Beat Bradley and retire would be my advice to him. Watching him be made to look silly by Marquez was sad - I wanted Marquez to win but not like that.
Floyd had all the opportunities and chose not to take them, which reflects badly on him - Margarito was hyped and in good form - he chose Baldomir. Cotto likewise - he ''retired''.
Beating guys like Ortiz just isn't enough, he's not a ''proper'' fighter IMO, he's just a creation of the GBP/HBO alliance, I'd stick Frankie Gavin in with him tomorrow to be honest. Floyd had nearly two years off and took the **** out of him, forcing a shocking meltdown in the end.
Still, Ortiz got what he wanted - out with his cheque, taking as little damage as possible. If he'd gone the distance he'd never have fought again.

The Perils of Pregnancy Brain (don't judge--there IS such a thing)
Prior to getting knocked up, I'd heard about this condition called 'Pregnancy Brain'. People say you get forgetful and essentially say and do dumb things thanks to hormones and the baby literally sucking away your brain power. But I figured I could get away without this if I got a lot of sleep and tried to stay healthy. Not that I've been eating healthy at all.
I've recently come to realize I am no exception to this humiliating condition. Some stuff I'm not even aware I'm doing until third parties point it out ("Hey, I'm pretty sure what you just said wasn't in English"), but there have been a few notable moments so far that have been quite embarrassing.
1. At a recent presentation I went up to the whiteboard to do some math calculations (a bad idea at the best of times), and I completely blanked. I sheepishly asked someone else to calculate what $20 X 40 was.
2. I've almost entirely forgotten how to spell. I find myself looking words up in google like "despicable" (dispikable) and "awkward" (akward). And just forget about my gramer.
3. I have sent some shameful emails. (see point #2)
4. I wrote the wrong date down for a meeting. The person confirmed the correct date with me prior to coming, I agreed to it, but then when they showed up at the agreed time I was really confused and surprised.
5. I wore my underwear backwards for an entire day. It felt weird when I put them on in the morning, but I figured my butt was expanding and what can I do about that? It was only midway through the day that I realized that itchy tag at the front didn't belong there.
If you think any of these are bad, I'm told it's only the beginning. Some people have it worse. When googling my condition I found this amazing blog post on Pregnant Chicken. It's a must read.
Can anyone relate?

Oh my gosh, that is too funny!
Your stories are all too funny! I just had my latest moment. I called a client to check in how they felt about our last campaign together. It went something like this:
I completely relate! When I was pregnant with my son, I went out for dinner with my pants on backwards. I felt strange but thought it was the expanding belly however when I went to the bathroom, I was mortified.
I totally relate, i'm 36 weeks now and just went on leave at work. I think all my coworkers thought I was a crazy my last week there LOL i was misplacing everything! I'm home now so I can't get in any more trouble.
Because of this article I will now make a conscience effort to be more aware and understanding of those who may be experiencing pregnancy brain :)
mommy2be i promise i'll post when *my time* comes :-) I'll need all your support just like I do now (http://www.chickadvisor.com/chickchat/health/health-goalshelp/).. good men are gems, and as hard to come by. But nothing, absolutely NOTHING replaces girlfriends. xoxo
Oh, I love you all so much!
I love Pregnant Chicken. It's a totally awesome blog!!
Can't relate yet, but #5 just made my day. Thank you. I about spit out my yogurt granola as I read it during a work break.
oh right, undies backwards .. that is really nothing!! You know the Reitmans "original comfort pants"? The one with no zipper or buttons? You can see what I mean here:

Search engine for personal files to be bundled in PCs
- Related Stories
A virtual vault for personal dataJuly 20, 2005
PCs bundled with the company's application will appear before the end of the year, said CEO Tom Garland, though the company wouldn't say which computer makers will include the program. Lexar is putting it on USB drives.
EverNote will also release a mobile version of its software before the end of the year. A new version of the desktop software will come out later this month.
The company's application lets consumers search a broad array of files on their desktop: PowerPoint slides, Excel pages, Word documents, handwritten notes and even photographs. An integrated optical character recognition tool translates road signs and other words in photos for the search engine.
A search on "mustard," for instance, turned up a photo containing a jar of Heinz mustard. A search on a person's first name turned up a photo with a conference badge, handwritten notes containing the name, and e-mails containing the name in type.
The trick is that EverNote doesn't search everything on a hard drive. Consumers have to tag the items they want to save and be searched later. Thus, even heavy users may only have a few hundred items in their EverNote database.
Microsoft, among others, has for years tinkered with desktop search. These search engines search entire hard drives, which makes the task significantly harder. EverNote defends its practice of only searching a small subset of hand-selected data by noting that individuals, in most circumstances, will not want to search the mass of stuff on their hard drive.
"You wouldn't want to search all of your spam," said Stepan Pachikov, president and chief product architect at the company.
Consumers can attach descriptive terms to a saved item to make it easier to find later. The application, however, will automatically classify the document by type (handwriting, e-mail, photo, a clip from the Web, etc.), date, location where it was created and other factors.
Time, it turns out, is the most important bit of identifying information, Pachikov said. People generally remember when they took a photograph or had a meeting. Thus, they often search by an approximate date.
"The second most important is location," he said. "If you met me and wanted to find a photograph, you wouldn't think, 'Was it France or Australia?'"
Third, people rely on the type of media, which means they will start a search by focusing only on handwritten notes if they remember the information was taken down by hand.
Another future version of the product will be for the Web. Consumers will clip what they want to save and post it to a Web site, sort of like a collage.

- Kinda useless for home users...
- ...and numerous other places, come to think of it.
Everywhere else? *nix users can use the built-in (nowadays) utility known as [i]locate[/i] (which is a mini search engine in and of itself... it uses a database to save time and I/O while searching).
Windows and OSX users I guess may have a use for it, but really... isn't this just a utility for people too computer-illiterate to use what's already there?

- tagging
- Desktop search has been around much longer. The earliest I can recall is Digital's AltaVista, which was almost exactly the same thing that Google does now (build an index by pre-searching files of a familiar format, search the index at runtime). The key difference is that Google's desktop search uses Google's proprietary search algorithms.
The key to the article is that this app supports tagging of items to be searched. This allows a user to 'search' items that were typically excluded by other engines since other engines require data be represented in a format supported by the engine. For instance, imagine that I want to locate a song I really like that I've dumped into my mp3 collection. I might tag it as 'mom's favorite song.' Later, when I search for stuff related to mom, this song pops up.
Of all the files on your disk, it turns out that your desktop search engine only supports indexing / searching a fraction. Evernote claims users don't care about searching through most of the stuff on disk anyway.
The problem with this app is that *users* are required to do their own tagging - something that will never happen. This is a problem with the new 'web 2.0' search engines that allow users to build a catalog of items to be searched - something that probably won't catch on either.

The newly created Senate Judiciary Committee's subcommittee on Oversight, Federal Rights and Agency Action held today its first hearing. Witnesses described the toll on public health and safety when the regulatory process is paralyzed by powerful interests and required analyses with no proven benefits.
A construction industry trade association in British Columbia urged the province's regulatory body to issue a proposed rule to protect silica-exposed workers. The proposal was issued this month. Where's the U.S. equivalent of a group of high-road construction employers insisting on rules to protect workers' health and safety?
Waiting for Obama Administration to deliver on new worker safety regulations, probably shouldn't hold my breath
Spring 2013 looked like it would be a banner season for progress by the Obama Administration on new worker safety regulations; not so much anymore.
The AFL-CIO's "Death on the Job" report shows why U.S. workers deserve much better protections than they are getting.
Representatives of U.S. foundries met with White House officials behind closed doors to complain about a not-yet-proposed OSHA regulation. It was the group's second such meeting. But they wouldn't be necessary if the White House would simply allow OSHA's public hearing process to take place.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — Illinois agriculture officials say there have been hundreds of cases of a deadly pig virus in Illinois.
The (Springfield) State Journal-Register reports there were 360 cases of porcine epidemic diarrhea in Illinois through March.But hog farmers weren't required to start reporting the illness until last week.PED has killed millions of pigs in 27 states since showing up in the U.S. last May. Illinois is among the hardest-hit.The disease has been blamed for recent increases in bacon and pork prices and farmers have struggled to control the virus, because little is known about how it spreads. Piglets are most at risk.The virus doesn't affect humans.The Illinois Pork Producers Association says the virus has spread throughout the state and is impacting large and small farms.___Information from: The State Journal-Register, http://www.sj-r.com

The Council and City Manager are to be commended for holding this meeting to inform the citizens and obtain their input BEFORE beginning negotiations.
Hopefully the citizens will respond to this wonderful opportunity.

This alert analyzes the legal positions taken by the Presidium of the Russian Federation Supreme Commercial Court ("SCC") in its recently published review of commercial court practice in cases concerning the application of public policy as a ground to refuse to recognize and enforce foreign court decisions and foreign arbitral awards (the "Review").
Russian court practice in applying the public policy concept has periodically led to contradictory positions being taken and the courts tend to interpret the scope of this defense broadly. It is therefore, the SCC summarized a number of typical situations in which issues of public policy may arise and examined situations in which the enforcement of arbitral awards may be considered contrary to Russian public policy.
We hope this alert will prove useful to you in identifying situations where the Russian courts do not have the right to refuse to recognize and enforce foreign arbitral awards.

KEROAÄN is a musical artificial intelligence developed by Ian M Fraser and Reed Evan Rosenberg that performs by implementing various non-standard synthesis techniques. The synthesis is played in real time by the KEROAÄN program. Pushing and pulling between sections of hard noise, singing glissandos, jagged melodic scribble and other sonic curiosities, the program liberates the computer from its position as a mere tool of hyper-productivity and transports the machine into a state of creative and performative being. Operatic in scope, a live diffusion of KEROAÄN features lasers, strobe lighting, and fog synched to both audible and structural qualities of the music as an infinitely morphing chorus of digital voices croon, cry, scream and everything in between.
Keroaän – "Bairal-Jin Similarity" C-10 cassette
Keroaän – "Daunting In It's Variousness: First In A Suit Of An Indeterminate Number Of Pieces" – Copy For Your Records hand-stamped fan cd-r // edition of 100.
"Keroaän is a musical A.I. program developed by Ian M. Fraser and Reed Evan Rosenberg using XENAKIS'S Dynamic Stochastic Synthesis… Non determinist "music" on a Fixed state machine- tricky… The subject is complex and 'quite' large, even to the idea of describing the sounds so produced, more than human / human description, I cant help wonder though i know Heidegger would disapprove, how any Dasein is authentic by nature of biology, a hence human air born auditory systems. This I'm exploring elsewhere, music – should it be limited to human auditory systems? Regardless this is a sound work, though its significance for me is much more in the move into territories outside of the correlationist's ear. Here using A.I. and stochastics. One criticism (which is a positive generation arising from such work!) I have lies in the ontologies of Stochastics Vs those of k-multicombinations, i.e. multi sets or bags, in simple terms the totality of 'all possible' rather than the non totality of probables. Probability has for me a possible emptiness in infinities, which is obvious in my own work. I prefer the pedantic algorithm to the stochastic chimp, though this is not to be seen a pejorative description, the play of probabilities offers much, its potentially an embracing field (it includes Meillassoux's future God!) and it strikes me as something more in my personal psychology to prefer "bags" to great apes. The whole project is commendable in its openness and the placing of so many themes on the table, it's a pity I can't explore more here. Possibilities, probabilities, infinities and time! What we hear is 10 or so slabs of noise and tones, drone like oscillations which rise and fall, the first signs of a colossus. A release which has not only sonic interest, one that should open up a discussion for anyone interested in music or sound art, and one way around or out of any HNW nihilism or correlationist's circle."
(jliat – vital weekly)
" Crazy computer noise that borders on unlistenable, except for the fact that it's totally fucking listenable. Sounds of all sorts in here, helium struggling to escape from balloons, metal coins scraping against hard plastic, hail storms & train wrecks, avalanches & atomic bombs, DIY prop plane motor whir, NES consoles aflame, ancient computer hardware disintegrating before your eyes, even a brief techno interlude. Absolute aural destruction."
(Justin Snow – Anti-Gravity Bunny)
"Geek duo from Philadelphia. About Reed Evan Rosenberg (Reed Evan Rosenberg) I wrote earlier in connection with his solo work, but Ian Fraser (Ian M. Fraser) for a new "modern music" people. Together (and separately) they are engaged in the generation of the sound on the computer using mathematical formulas and so on. In this case, they have written based on the ideas of Yannis Xenakis (Iannis Xenakis) software, which made this release. Who cares, learn how it's done. And is it related to music?
By modern experimental – yes, definitely has. And if the hard dense loud sound more could be associated with harsh noyzovoy scene and its attendant brutality of the listener, then the structure of the mini-album will resemble rather something from the world of academic. Can not say exactly how the duo made a pause in real time it was written, or it is cutting pieces after. Essence is – pause to listen to configure a completely different way. Paying attention to all the sound and only him. Let the computer do it, even by accident, but it is so in the spirit of the time, as far as possible.Writing a brief break and then unleash a barrage of twists synthesized noise worthy to voice them, say, the next coming to Earth Transformers. "
(Ilya Belorukov – CMMAG translated by Google)
The diametric opposite of calm and serene is that strange inhuman noise offered by Keroaän, on a mini-CDR called Daunting In Its Variousness: First in a suite of an Indeterminate Number of Pieces (COPY FOR YOUR RECORDS CFYR03). This crackling and human-crushing diabolical noise may have had its origins in computer code, if the notes are anything to go by; they refer to Keroaän artificial intelligence, developed by Ian M. Fraser and Reed Evan Rosenberg. The actual music of course is performed by Keroaän itself "without any human intervention whatsoever". Give yourself time to work through the unfamiliar and near-painful sensations afforded by the gritty surfaces here, and eventually you may be rewarded with near-musical swipes and unearthly screams of complaint issuing from the bowels of this huge chunk of code as it passes through the functions of a media player. The performance is also chopped apart into segments that incorporate heart-stopping silences in among the grunckering brattlements, acting in a grotesque parody of conventional musical dynamics. It may seem stilted and unnatural at times, but the achievement here is the glorious impossibility of it; no human being could ever bring themselves to the point where they might conceive of making noise music in this way, let alone have the courage to execute it. Proof once again that the machines are taking over, and they will win. Fraser and Reed may one day manage to write a machine-readable script that acts as a simulacrum for a virtual Merzbow. Note also the use of the Cagean term "indeterminate", and the painterly brush work on the disc adding a splash of fine-art loft-scene vibe. From 16 January, another nifty slice of marginal New York experimentism.

Drought level 3 near; lakes down
County OKs continuation of burn ban
As area lakes dwindle ever closer to levels that will kick off more stringent water use restrictions, Wichita County Commissioners vote to keep a burn ban in place.
Both are signals that a stubborn drought refuses to loosen its grip on the region.
The city of Wichita Falls reported Monday that Lake Arrowhead's water level declined to 43.3 percent of capacity while Lake Kickapoo dropped to 42 percent. The combined level of the city's two primary water reservoirs is 42.9 percent, a small drop from the previous week when rain actually bolstered the levels by one-tenth of a percent.
If the combined level declines to 40 percent, the city will enforce stronger water use restrictions than those currently in effect under the stage 2 drought warning. Lake Kemp, whose water also can be used by the city, had fallen to just 28.65 percent of capacity Monday.
Meanwhile, Wichita County Commissioners voted Monday to uphold the county's burn ban.
Emergency manager Lee Bourgoin said a number of county residents are anxious to burn brush piles and trash that have accumulated on their property.
He said he polled fire departments in the county and found they were about evenly split on lifting the ban. Some were concerned about the availability of water to fight fires if necessary.
Bourgoin said now might be the best time to lift the ban at least temporarily to give them a chance to do so.
Pct. 3 Commissioner Barry Mahler argued for keeping the ban.
"I think it would be irresponsible to lift the ban at this time," he said.
Mahler said he knows many stock tanks are dry and predicted the drought that grips the region is likely to worsen.
"It's too treacherous," he said. "Not a lot of relief is in sight."
The four commissioners voted unanimously to keep the ban in place.
As of Monday, Wichita County remained in an Extreme Drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor.
Wichita Falls has received 16.66 inches of rain since the beginning of the year, more than 5 inches less than normal. A slight chance of rain enters the Wichita Falls forecast on Thursday in Friday.
In the meantime, very warm and windy conditions are predicted to persist.

New York Philharmonic

It's something serious when the philharmonic has to leave Lincoln Center to put on a show. The occasion this time is truly remarkable: a rare NYC performance of Karlheinz Stockhausen's epic Gruppen for three orchestras (they play simultaneously). This is not just the most exciting thing on the philharmonic's schedule this year; it should also prove to be a contemporary-art event, full stop. The theme of the evening is music prepared with "spatial" concepts in mind—and so the 55,000-square-foot Armory will be put to use for a staging prepared by director Michael Counts. Expect cacophony, expect disorientation, expect a scene. Park Avenue Armory, 643 Park Avenue, nyphil.org
Roomful of Teeth
June 30
Did you know that Pazz & Jop 2011 winner Merrill Garbus, a/k/a tUnE-yArDs, knows how to write notes down on paper? At the behest of New Amsterdam Records organizers William Brittelle and Judd Greenstein, Garbus has contributed music to a vocal ensemble called Roomful of Teeth. That debut record, new Garbus music included, is scheduled to be released later this year, but this free show presents an opportunity for an advance hearing.

Morton Subotnick
July 8
Subotnick pioneered electronic music in the '60s with albums like Silver Apples of the Moon, as well as at the San Francisco Tape Music Center, which he co-founded (and where he co-commissioned the first synthesizer from Don Buchla). This "composition-improvisation" performance of "Energy Shapes," presided over by Subotnick, will see him feeding vocals into the Buchla 200e model, manipulating and spinning them out via his own patented process into a work that will probably be hard to describe, other than as a product of Subotnick's inimitable style.

Dirty Projectors and Wye Oak
July 10
For one of the benefit concerts to support the Celebrate Brooklyn! festival, the indie-rock group will tout the release of their new album, Swing Lo Magellan, which is due to be released on the same day. The addition of Wye Oak—whose most recent effort for Merge Records, Civilian, represented a career high—gives this lineup the slight edge over Wilco (who take their turn celebrating the borough on July 23 and 24).

This singer-songwriter brings her bottomless vocal technique to the free Lowdown Hudson Blues Festival. Case doesn't have a new record to promote, but so what? The concert will be a top draw simply on the basis of her six-album solo songbook. One evening earlier, Buddy Guy will take care of the guitar side of the blues.

Mark assists clients in corporate and debt reorganizations and distressed mergers and acquisitions. In particular, Mark guides clients in Chapter 11 restructuring proceedings, whether the party is a lender, vendor, debtor or strategic buyer. Although Mark is best known for his work on behalf of asset-based secured lenders and trade vendors, he most recently represented a system of rural critical-access hospitals in a Chapter 11 restructuring proceeding. Mark began his career as the law clerk for federal bankruptcy Judge Frank W. Koger during the Food Barn Stores Inc. bankruptcy in Kansas City, Mo. Building on that early grocery experience, Mark has focused a substantial portion of his practice during the past decade on food industry and agricultural Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. This has involved matters from "field to table" and everywhere along the supply chain, including issues under the Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act (PACA) and the Packers and Stockyards Act (PASA). Among Mark's accomplishments are these: •Reorganized HMC/CAH Consolidated and 12 operating affiliates in Chapter 11 bankruptcy and completed the restructure in 15 months. These rural critical-access hospitals emerged in a true reorganization without a sale or shutdown of hospitals. •Advised Patient First Healthcare and affiliates in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The group of companies included a surgical specialty hospital and physician practices and emerged in a true reorganization. •Represented Associated Wholesale Grocers in the nearly $300 million acquisition of the six operating divisions from the Fleming Cos. bankruptcy. In addition to the food industry, Mark's restructuring experience includes healthcare (surgical specialty hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, physician practices, critical-access hospitals and medical equipment leasing); transportation (trucking and capital equipment and terminal rental adjustment clause leases, also known as TRAC); and energy (oil, natural gas, coal, ethanol and wind; exploration, production and pipelines). Mark is active in the local bar, having served as co-chair of the Bankruptcy and Commercial Law Committee for the Kansas City Metropolitan Bar Association and the Ad Hoc Advisory Committee on Local Rules for the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Western District of Missouri. Mark is board certified in business bankruptcy by the American Board of Certification.* *The American Board of Certification's business bankruptcy certification program is accredited by the American Bar Association. Neither the Supreme Court of Missouri nor the Missouri Bar reviews or approves certifying organizations or special designations.Awards and Recognitions•The Best Lawyers In America, Bankruptcy and Creditor Debtor Rights/Insolvency and Reorganization Law, Litigation-Bankruptcy, 2008-2015 •Kansas City Business Journal, Best of the Bar, 2011-2014 •Missouri & Kansas Super Lawyers, Bankruptcy & Creditor/Debtor Rights, 2006-2014 •Martindale-Hubbell AV Preeminent •The Missouri Bar, Pro Bono Award, 1995Clerkships• The Hon.

Advised surgical specialty hospital and affiliated physician practices in reorganization plan to emerge as a true reorganization without a shutdown or sale of their businesses. •Represented Associated Wholesale Grocers Inc. (AWG) in the nearly $300 million acquisition of six operating divisions from the Fleming Cos. Inc. bankruptcy in Wilmington, Del. •Counseled National Beef Packing Co. LLC as a trade vendor in obtaining payment in full on its claims through a reclamation process in the Fleming bankruptcy. •Represented National Beef as a trade vendor in the bankruptcy of Empire Beef Co. Inc. in Rochester, N.Y., and obtained recognition of the first Bankruptcy Code Section 503(b)(9) creditors' committee in the nation. Also obtained dismissal of the bankruptcy case, thereby avoiding litigation against all vendors over alleged preferential transfers, including National Beef, which was alleged to have received in excess of $40 million in preferential transfers. •Represented AWG as a strategic buyer in the Affiliated Foods Southwest Inc. bankruptcy in Little Rock, Ark. Obtained a Section 363 sale order within five business days of the bankruptcy filing. •Represented AWG as a secured lender and vendor in the Homeland Stores Inc. bankruptcy in Oklahoma City, Okla., where AWG acquired ownership of approximately 44 stores through a sale approved in the Chapter 11 plan. •Assisted AWG in the spinoff of its retail operations of approximately 80 stores to an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP). •Represented the American Baker's Association retirement plan as a creditor in the Interstate Bakeries Inc. bankruptcy proceedings in Kansas City, Mo., where the plan received a substantial distribution as an administrative claim and a favorable ruling with respect to single employer versus multiemployer liability against the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp. •Represented Wells Fargo Bank N.A. as a defrauded lender in the George Young bankruptcy proceedings in Kansas City, Mo. Young perpetrated what was at the time the single largest cattle fraud scheme ever in the United States.

This is a good cat food if your cat is prone to or is at high risk for recurrent UTI's. Helps to balance the urines PH. Cats seem to like the flavor and I have not noted any stomach upset in the cats I have used this food for.

COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho -- A teacher at an alternative school in Coeur d'Alene is charged with raping and sexually assaulting a 5-year-old girl.
Court records released Wednesday in the case against 32-year-old Daniel Abram Taylor indicate he acknowledged touching the child for sexual gratification.
Taylor was arrested Monday and made an initial court appearance Tuesday. His bail was set at $50,000 on rape and two counts of lewd conduct. He told the court he planned to hire his own attorney.
Court records say the girl reported three instances of sexual abuse that began in January 2011 and ended in August 2012. The girl's mother went to police on Dec. 5.
The school district put Taylor on administrative leave.
