A Tale of Unraveled Fortune
By JOSEPH B. TREASTER
Published: May 25, 1997
EVANSVILLE, Ind.— AS Robert Z. Morris was building a fortune in southern Indiana grain and Florida real estate, his mind often flashed back to a scene from his youth. It was the middle of the Depression and his father was desperately trying to borrow money to keep his farm and grain elevator going. Finally, he turned to his life insurance policy. Mutual of Omaha came through with $500, and the family business was saved.
That powerful lesson left the younger Mr. Morris with a deep faith in the value of life insurance. As the years rolled by and his own business empire flourished, he became as addicted to insurance as some investors are to the stock market. In 1934, he started with a $5,000 policy that named his wife as beneficiary. From then on, he snapped up policies ''off and on for all of my life,'' he said, believing he was buying protection for his family and an investment vehicle for passing on his wealth. He ultimately acquired nearly 100 policies that he expected would pay roughly $30 million on his death, squirreling them away in an office vault. To keep track, he had a secretary draw up a list of the policies in longhand on a pale green ledger sheet.
But 12 years ago, Mr. Morris entered into a deal that undermined his confidence in the insurance industry and wiped out a large chunk of his wealth. In the process, he became one of tens of thousands of people who say they were burned by an industry marketing push in the early 1980's to hold onto policyholders' money -- a push that has since resulted in a barrage of lawsuits and hundreds of millions of dollars in fines and compensation payments.
But the unusual combination of his wealth, his passion for insurance policies and his readiness to pay a stream of unexpected bills totaling millions of dollars with barely a peep of protest makes Mr. Morris's story one of the most spectacular financial follies of recent years.
Now 82 years old and fighting Parkinson's disease, Mr. Morris is embroiled in a bitter dispute to get some of his money back.
And the insurance companies that provided the policies -- the Manufacturers Life Insurance Company and the American General Life Insurance Company -- as well as a Michigan agent who handled the transaction, James W. O'Neill, are not budging. They say the deal was fair and square and that Mr. Morris was showered with details.
''This is a not a situation where an insurance agent goes out to Ma and Pa Kettle on the farm on one visit and sells them a bill of goods,'' said Brent R. Weil, an Evansville lawyer who represents Mr. O'Neill. ''This is a transaction that involved at least 10 visits to Mr. Morris over the course of nearly a year and volumes of projections were generated. Mr. Morris is a very financially sophisticated person.''
At the time Mr. Morris made his move, interest rates were soaring, and millions of Americans were either abandoning or borrowing from their low-yielding whole-life insurance policies -- those that accumulate a cash value over time -- and moving the money into higher-yielding money-market funds and certificates of deposit.
To stanch the flow, insurance companies urged customers to convert their old policies, with returns of 4 to 5 percent, into new ones that paid twice as much or more. At the instigation of his agent, Mr. Morris did just that. After reviewing all of Mr. Morris's insurance holdings, Mr. O'Neill reduced the portfolio to about 60 policies. In his most striking move, he converted about 30 of the old policies, with death benefits for the Morris family of $6.4 million and annual premiums of $326,012, into 15 policies with death benefits of $10.1 million.
It was almost like waving a magic wand and doubling your money. Best of all, the projected interest on $2.28 million that was being shifted into the new policies, mainly as loans from the cash value of the old policies, was expected to pay all future premiums. It seemed a rather painless way for a 70-year-old man to make his money grow for his heirs.
That, at least, is how Mr. Morris says the agent explained it to him. In truth, such a happy outcome depended on the very unlikely event that interest rates would stay in double digits indefinitely. If they fell, however, Mr. Morris would have to make up the difference. All of this was explained in the fine print, but savvy as Mr. Morris was in his own business ventures, he says he never read the fine print. He says he didn't think he had to; after all, his absolute trust in insurance companies had been ingrained for more than half a century.
Besides, he said, ''You could put 100 people on the witness stand and ask them if they'd read their insurance policies, every word of them, and you might find one.''
So it came as a bit of a shock when, just a year after he made the switch, he received bills totaling roughly $300,000 from the two insurers. Puzzled, he dialed the toll-free number that each company had listed on its premium notice, he said, and, in each case, spoke with a woman whose name he did not catch. Both representatives, he said, told him the payments were necessary to bring his policies up to a point where no further premiums would be required.
THOSE brief telephone conversations were enough to satisfy Mr. Morris. His belief in the integrity of the insurance industry outweighed any doubts. He wrote both checks.

I have been working at ADP full-time (More than 5 years)RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEORecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEO
ADP is big and powerful, with offices in just about every state. They are a Fortune 500 company with billions in revenue, and have one of the best and most innovative IT departments in the world with superior senior and executive leadership. There is great emphasis on building your skills and helping you succeed. The people who work for this company have great pride in their positions and take things VERY seriously. Most noticeably, there is a lot of mutual respect between departments. This cannot be said for a lot of other companies I worked at where tournament-style wars were waged for promotions, gossip and backstabbing were prevalent, and upper management was littered with unqualified individuals. This does not happen at ADP. The company is far too large to engage in such trivial matters.
ADP seems to attract top talent. Our particular team has transplants from Nike, Charles Schwab, MetLife, and General Motors. The pay is substantial here compared to other companies, with entry-level software engineers in being paid very comfortably, while Directors and VPs are paid lavishly. The work/life balance is also fair here, with many employees having the option to work from home if the project load allows it, though it's not wise to always do so.
The on-boarding process can be a little daunting. Higher-level employees are expected to learn things on the fly and this can lead to a little bit lag in projects being completed. ADP is always growing, and new personal are always being hired, so it seems like a solution to this situation would be a priority. Just in discussion with other ADP employees, it takes a good month or two to truly grasp what you are required to do and how this massive ADP machine operates. Once you figure this out, working here becomes much more enjoyable, but it saddens me how many employees recoil and fear how quickly this company evolves.
A concern for more youthful employees is being interested in the product they are working with. Payroll and Services aren't the most appealing subject matter to be grinding out hours on, so ADP is more appealing to the upper-level director/manager level employee who has sowed his/her proverbial oats with more stimulating projects at their last employer and is looking to command and drive projects mainly for the big paycheck. These people are easy to spot here.
Advice to Management
Thanks for the opportunity! I'm happy to work for such an awesome company.

Some of the best people I've ever worked for and with. Getting the right tools to get the job done right was never an issue. Management's expectations were very high, and when the work was done well, credit was given where credit was due.
Inconsistent workload. You were either killing yourself working around the clock trying to meet last minute deadlines, or you were twiddling your thumbs wondering why this time wasn't being spent learning how to better manage our time and resources so we didn't have to deal with the last minute deadlines.

WASHINGTON -- Brian Rowe conceded a goal late, but the 26-year-old goalkeeper was pleased with his showing in the LA Galaxy's 1-0 defeat to D.C. United last week.
Filling in for Jaime Penedo who was away on international duty, Rowe made two saves as he kept a clean sheet until Chris Pontius' goal in the third minute of stoppage time gave the Galaxy their first defeat of 2015. Although United forced just two saves, the Galaxy back-up needed to make several last ditch stops as the wind and cold nearly led to several miscues that forced Rowe to recover.
LA Galaxy Notes: Bradford Jamieson IV starts in U.S. Under-20 loss; Academy sides pick up mixed results in Texas
LA Galaxy Homegrown Player Bradford Jamieson IV earned a start as the U.S. U-20's were defeated 2-1 by the England U-20's in Plymouth on Sunday morning.
Neither side threatened early on but as the match wore on, the Americans began to find their footing against the English side. Jamieson nearly helped the Americans pull ahead in the 43rd minute when he won a foul that set up a dangerous free kick for Rubio Rubin who just missed a chance to give the U.S. the lead.
Tab Ramos' side was punished for failed to finish their chances just before half as John Swift gave the English the lead. Kwame Thomas doubled the Three Lions' advantage in the 68th minute with Swift assisting on the goal. The Americans pulled one back in the 74th minute with a goal from Maki Tall, but were ultimately unable to complete their comeback.
The U.S. U-20's will convene next month for an Austria-based training camp that will feature friendlies against Qatar and Croatia.
The LA Galaxy Under-18's were defeated 3-0 by Japanese club Ryutsu-Keizai in their first match in the Gordon Jago Super Group at Dallas Cup on Sunday. LA's U-18's will continue their participation in the tournament on Monday with a match against the Everton Academy.
Andrew Perez scored as the LA Galaxy U-16's picked up a 1-0 victory over Mexican side Tigres UNAL in their first match at the Generation adidas Cup.
LA Galaxy captain Robbie Keane started and went a full 90 minutes as the Republic of Ireland earned a late 1-1 draw with Poland in their Euro 2016 qualifier in Dublin on Sunday.
After a tentative start from the Irish, the Poles pulled ahead after 26 minutes when Slawomir Peszko put the Polish squad ahead of their Group D rivals. Keane's play was vital for the Irish as they looked for their equalizer, with the Galaxy forward coming close on several occasions to notching his 66th international goal. The closest such attempt came in the 72nd minute when Keane nodded a James McClean cross into the upright. Ireland finally got their goal in stoppage time from second half substitute Shane Long who scored from close range to give the hosts a point.
The Republic of Ireland now find themselves in fourth place with eight points in Group D play after five games. Poland remains the group leader with 11 points while Germany and Scotland remain tied for second with 10 points apiece. The Irish squad will convene again in June for a friendly against England in Dublin before hosting Scotland in a Euro 2016 qualifying match.
The LA Galaxy will renew one of the original MLS rivalries on Saturday when they take on D.C. United at RFK Stadium.
Both teams have rich tradition of winning, but what has made the teams so successful over the years? I spoke to A.J. DeLaGarza, Robbie Rogers and Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena to find out.

By the Numbers: LA Galaxy seek to earn points on the road against D.C. United without a trio of starters
WASHINGTON -- The LA Galaxy will face off against their old foes D.C. United on Saturday evening at RFK Stadium.
The Galaxy will take on United without the services of starters Robbie Keane, Jaime Penedo and Gyasi Zardes due to international duty. In the latest edition of LAGalaxy.com's "By the Numbers", we look at the Galaxy's record without Keane since his signing in 2011.
Check it out below.
The LA Galaxy announced on Friday that they have signed goalkeeper Trey Mitchell.
The signing of Mitchell comes after the announcement that Brian Perk will miss the 2015 season due to an ankle injury. The Alta Loma native will serve as the backup goalkeeper for Brian Rowe during Saturday's clash with D.C. United.
CARSON, Calif. – Goalkeeper Brian Rowe will step in the net for the LA Galaxy for a third time this season when LA take on D.C. United with the full confidence of the team's coaching staff.
With incumbent starter Jaime Penedo away on international duty, Rowe will make his third start of the season. In two appearances this season, Rowe has compiled a 1-0-1 record with three saves and only two goals allowed.
Ahead of the match against United, Rowe is confident that the Galaxy can get a result at RFK Stadium despite missing three starters due to international duty.
"I feel good. … Moving forward, we're just trying to fine tune a little bit and get into more of a rhythm," said Rowe. "It's fun working with this backline because they do a great job of defending as a team, and make it fun for me. We're going to try to go into each game and get the most out of it."
According to Galaxy boss Bruce Arena, the fact that Rowe has already seen considerable time in goal this season, will only benefit him when he suits up at RFK Stadium.
"It was very important. He's comfortable now," Arena said. "He's prepared to play in this game and that was good. This was all part of the reason that he played in the first game."
The LA Galaxy and the Angel City Brigade announced on Tuesday that they have worked in collaboration to lift the sanctions levied on the group levied on the group and the restoration of their full supporters' game-day privileges for the remainder of the 2015 MLS season.
ACB will have their full privileges restored for the club's next two matches on the road against D.C. United (March 28) and Vancouver Whitecaps FC (April 4). The group's first home match with full privileges will be the Galaxy's April 12 fixture against Seattle Sounders FC.
CARSON, Calif. – Jose Villarreal has blossomed into one of the bright spots of the LA Galaxy's 2015 campaign, and now that has placed the midfielder back on the radar of the U.S. National Team's U-23 squad.
The Galaxy have two representatives on Andres Herzog's U-23 squad as defender Oscar Sorto and Galaxy II forward Ariel Lassiter made the roster, but Villarreal confirmed that he was initially on that list as well, but declined the opportunity in order to focus on solidifying his role with the Galaxy.
"I spoke to Bruce and said that I just wanted to stay and work with the team because [international call-ups] will come eventually," Villarreal told LA Galaxy Insider on Monday ahead of the team's D.C. United this weekend. "I personally wanted to stay because I didn't want to kill the rhythm that I have with the team, and have to come back and need to win my spot again.
"[International play] will come with the way that I've been playing," he added. "I just have to keep being consistent with the form that I have. The U-23s are a tough group to get into, with a lot of talented players, but I think that if I keep improving then I can make that team."
After a difficult 2014 season, Villarreal has regained the swagger that made him one of the brightest young talents in MLS just a few seasons ago, even declaring that "there's no going down from here."
"There's nothing that you can ask for other than working hard on the field other than hustling and busting your ass on the field," said Villarreal. "That's what most players want from the youngsters so you have to do that no matter what."

Product description
From the bestselling author of "The Egyptologist "and "Prague" comes an even more accomplished and entirely surprising new novel. Angelica is a spellbinding Victorian ghost story, an intriguing literary and psychological puzzle, and a meditation on marriage, childhood, memory, and fear. The novel opens in London, in the 1880s, with the Barton household on the brink of collapse. Mother, father, and daughter provoke one another, consciously and unconsciously, and a horrifying crisis is triggered. As the family's tragedy is told several times from different perspectives, events are recast and sympathies shift. In the dark of night, a chilling sexual spectre is making its way through the house, hovering over the sleeping girl and terrorizing her fragile mother. Are these visions real, or is there something more sinister, and more human, to fear? A spiritualist is summoned to cleanse the place of its terrors, but with her arrival the complexities of motive and desire only multiply. The mother's failing health and the father's many secrets fuel the growing conflicts, while the daughter flirts dangerously with truth and fantasy. While "Angelica "is reminiscent of such classic horror tales as "The Turn of the Screw" and "The Haunting of Hill House," it is also a thoroughly modern exploration of identity, reality, and love. Set at the dawn of psychoanalysis and the peak of spiritualism's acceptance, Angelica is also an evocative historical novel that explores the timeless human hunger for certainty. ""Angelica," Arthur Phillip's spellbinding third book, cements this young novelist's reputation as one of the best writers in America, a storyteller who combines Nabokovian wit and subtlety with a narrative urgency that rivals Stephen King" -"Washington Post" "From the Hardcover edition."

Democrats willing to risk tax hike for all
WASHINGTON Democrats are going all-in in a fiscal game of chicken, saying they'll let everyone's income taxes rise on Jan. 1 and slash defense spending amid 8-plus percent unemployment if Republicans continue to balk at raising taxes just on those making more than $250,000 a year.
The brave face is being adopted as President Barack Obama and Congress come to grips with the possibility that gridlock and stalemate will result in the government careening off a fiscal cliff in January with automatic tax increases, spending cuts and an approaching exhaustion of borrowing ability.
"If we can't get a good deal, a balanced deal that calls on the wealthy to pay their fair share, then I will absolutely continue this debate into 2013 rather than lock in a long-term deal this year that throws middle-class families under the bus," Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., said in a speech Monday.
Murray's salvo was the latest in an almost daily back-and-forth between top Republicans and Democrats over the one-two punch facing the economy in January: expiration of the Bush tax cuts and the imposition of $110 billion in automatic spending cuts, half coming from defense.
"They're ready and willing to go right off the fiscal cliff if they don't get their way," said Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. "Because they think it will make it likelier they'll get their way."
McConnell was an architect of the automatic spending cuts, which were designed to prod a deficit-reduction supercommittee to reach an agreement rather than actually take effect. The supercommittee failed and the idea of automatic cuts is now an unpopular one.
The gamesmanship also includes votes in the Republican-controlled House and Democratic-run Senate over the next two weeks on competing one-year extensions of former President George Bush's 2001 and 2003 tax cuts.
The GOP version extends the full range of the Bush tax cuts.
A plan circulated Monday by Senate Democrats would keep income tax rates where they currently are for families earning below $250,000 a year and individuals making less than $200,000, as Obama has proposed. But the tax cuts enacted a decade ago on income above those limits would expire, with the top income tax bracket rising to 39.6 percent.
Democrats are bolstered by opinion polls that show voters favor increasing taxes on the wealthy. But they also risk sharing the blame for a broader tax increase and sudden spending cuts that economists like Congressional Budget Office Director Doug Elmendorf say would probably throw the economy back into recession next year.
It's a risk they seem willing to take so far.
"If middle-class families start seeing more money coming out of their paychecks next year, are Republicans really going to stand up and fight for new tax cuts for the rich?" Murray said. "I think they know this would be an untenable political position."
Defense contractors are already bracing for the cuts and warn that the Pentagon is likely to slow the pace of spending this fall and harm the economy even before the bell tolls in January. Contractors like Lockheed Martin say the law requires them to issue warnings of possible layoffs 60 days before Jan. 1 - meaning they'd arrive just days before the election.

USP: Welcome to a world of green
IndEco's Lake Forest Hotel seems miles away from civilisation with creeping black pepper plants adorning the trees, tall silver oaks, the occasional waft of eucalyptus and the distant croaks and buzzes of its inherent animal life. But the hotel lies right at the heart of the hill station.
A five-minute walk from the lake, what I like about the place are the rooms; quaint cottage-like suites set at different heights nudged between tall trees, shrubs and stone hedges. The reception is a 19th Century British bungalow, built by the first owners of the coffee plantation in which the hotel is situated. The wooden bungalow retains its old-world charm.
I decide to take a walk before I go to the room and realise the winding roads and stone steps that I go through are canopied by green on all sides, with small wooden benches and sit-outs. The seating area outside the reception has tables and chairs crafted in old wood, an antique cycle and some other curiosity items.
The furnishing is minimal but tastefully done with antiques. A wooden cupboard, a desk with a mirror, a bed, refrigerator, dining table and TV and a couple of chairs in the balcony make up the room with large, airy windows. Even the flooring is red-oxide with painted patterns. While the food is only average (there is a menu in every room from which you can order), the ambience and prompt service make up for it.
I open the old-style handle to the balcony to find the morning mist blanketing the stunning view and the rich green taking on a shade of grey. It slowly regains colour as the morning progresses and the dewdrops begins to drop down like drizzle. I turn to close the door when a small insect whizzes past me into the room. I suddenly remember the small plaque outside my door, "The insects that come into your room don't know they are not supposed to."
How to get there
Yercaud is 35 km from Salem, which is the closest town by rail or air. There are also a/c buses to the hill station from all major towns and cities. The hotel is located right at the entrance of the town, at Ondikadai Post, just off the road to Pakota Point.
Things to do
Yoga and meditation, trekking, estate visits and sight-seeing.
There is a recreation room with carom boards, pallankuzhi and some exercise equipment.
There is also a play area for children with swings and a trampoline.
Or you could just take a walk or look out your balcony for a stunning view.
A Bungalow Suite costs Rs. 4,000, English Suite costs Rs. 6,000, Royal Suite costs Rs. 10,000, Eastlynn Garden costs Rs. 15,000 and an extra bed costs Rs. 950.
The charges vary for other nationals.

The Turkish Mediterranean Coast region
About Side Holiday Resort in Turkey
Side is a beautiful coastal town situated in Southern Turkey. The word 'Side' means "Pomegranate", the symbol of fertility.
Occupying a narrow peninsular on the sparkling Mediterranean coast, its history stretches back thousands of years. The resort is surrounded by stunning ruins and historical sites, including the waterside Temple of Apollo and a well preserved Roman amphitheatre, which still hosts colourful performances. Side's archaeological importance means there are strict local planning regulations, which has helped the town maintain its charming character. Strolling down the pedestrianized main street brings you to a harbour filled with pleasure boats and overlooked by restaurants and bars, where you can enjoy a relaxed sunset drink. The town's long sandy beaches are some of the best on the entire Turkish coast and have established the resort as one of the country's top tourist destinations. Paragliding, diving, jet-skis - every kind water sport is available - while many prefer just to laze in the warm Mediterranean sun.
Side is at the centre of a beautiful and very diverse region where the Taurus Mountains descend to the Pamphylian Plain. The unspoilt Sorgun forest, just east of the resort, offers walks or horse riding along its sandy trails. There is a new links golf course only 15 mins drive away from Side as well asnumerous courses in Belek, which is only 30 minutes away. Indeed, with over 30 courses planned for the Antalya region over the next 10 years, Side promises to be at the centre of Europe's most exciting new golfing area.
Nearby Aspendos has a fantastic Roman theatre, which hosts a dazzling annual festival of breathtaking opera, ballet and musical performances during the summer months.
The waterfalls on the jade green Manavgat River are another popular local attraction. Further into the pine-forested mountains, a Roman bridge spans a rushing river in the Koprulu Canyon National Park, which is one of Turkey's premier white water rafting venues.

I would highly recommend this apartment.It has a lovely morning sunshine terrace with pretty table and chairswhich are very comfortable, so you can enjoy the sun until midday. The apartment itself is clean and airy with a lovely middle east feeling interior and touches to it. When we arrived we had no problem getting the key from the security and there was everything you would need such as toilet paper, drinking water and kitchen roll to start you off. The beds are really comfortable and Sue had left very useful information about the Side area and the local people.The apartment had the comfort of a home with everything you would need in it. The swimming pool outside is gorgeous and it is surrounded by beautiful gardens.There is lots of history and good weather in Antalya region and Side itself. Dealing with Sue was a pleasure as she is very helpful and cares about her tenants.
Thank you Sue!

My professors come in with their own experiences they've had on the job, and talk us through handling situations that they know we'll encounter during our internships and after graduation. So the preparation I'm getting is really outstanding." Jackie Ciocchetti, Criminal Justice Highwood, Illinois As a student at Marian, you'll bring knowledge to life in ways most can barely imagine. We call it applied liberal arts… which means you'll take the theoretical foundation of what you learn in the classroom—from your studies of the humanities, business, science, and the arts—and find meaningful, innovative ways to use that knowledge to solve problems and impact lives. It might be in a lab. Or an elementary school. A health clinic. A local business. Or in service to a community half a world away.

Real-World Learning Marian students engage in a broad range of real-world learning and working experiences. In many majors, these experiences are part of the curriculum, offering you the hands-on training that will position you for success after you graduate. Some of these include: • Clinical rotations • Internships • Practicums • Research • Service learning • Study abroad Inspired Community Giving back to our community and to the world isn't simply a part of who we are at Marian. It's the heart of who we are. That's why our people devote more time to volunteer and service work each year than those at most other colleges and universities. It's in our DNA. Of course, by participating in service learning and volunteer opportunities students develop the kind of perspective and key skills that will benefit them throughout their careers. But more importantly, it's a way for us to improve lives and demonstrate the spirit that makes Marian, Marian. A Catholic Tradition Each year, in the Catholic tradition of service to the community, Marian students volunteer and participate in service learning projects at a wide variety of locations and organizations. Last year alone, here are some of the groups with whom our faculty, staff, and students worked: • Autism Speaks • Big Brothers and Big Sisters • Fond du Lac YMCA • Fond du Lac Food Pantry • Fond du Lac Humane Society • Friendship Corners, a mental health drop-in center • Home and Hospice Advantage • Loaves and Fishes • Salvation Army • Solutions Center Warming Shelter • St. Agnes Hospital • St. Mary's Springs Academy Childcare Center • St. Vincent de Paul • Waters Elementary School 24,194 The number of service hours conducted by the Marian University community in 2012–2013. "Community and being involved is such a big part of Marian University, especially service learning. For one project, I went to work at a homeless shelter, and there was a gentlemen there that I spent a lot of time with. I learned a lot about his life story, and it really opened my eyes. When you participate in something like that, you're obviously making a positive impact, but at the same time, it makes an impact on you." - David Memenga, Nursing Ripon, Wisconsin Sabre Athletics At Marian, you'll enjoy the action of NCAA Division III intercollegiate athletics—either from the stands, or on the courts and fields yourself.

Our Mission: Can We Raise $250,000 to Save More Animals?
You may have first seen our family when we kids challenged our dad: if we could get 1 million likes on Facebook, he'd buy us a puppy. He didn't think we could do it, but you proved him wrong! In just 7 hours, we had our million likes. By the time the craziness was over, we had nearly 5 million likes on our pictures and page. Dad came through on his promise, and we adopted Millie (named for her million likes!) just a few days later.
Here's some of the media coverage of our family's remarkable week going viral!
Thanks for giving us a million likes--it was amazing to watch them come in! We saved Millie as a result, but now we want to help save more dogs, cats, and other animals. We're issuing another challenge: how much money can one, dedicated family raise for animal rescue?
We want to raise money for The North Shore Animal League, the world's largest no-kill animal shelter and the place where we adopted Millie. You gave us your "like" and helped us rescue Millie—now give North Shore just $1 (or more if you'd like) to rescue more animals. You can also help by sharing our campaign on Facebook and Twitter.
Note: our family will not make any money from your donations at IndieGoGo. We're working with North Shore (they're providing many of the perks here) and we will give 100% of the money we raise to them.
Though our viral success was quite a surprise, we hope to use this site to do some good for other animals and to teach our daughters how to use a public platform.
About North Shore Animal League America
Animal League America has saved more than 1,000,000 lives. As the world's largest no-kill rescue and adoption organization, we understand that a rescue isn't complete until each animal is placed into a loving home. Our innovative programs provide education to reduce animal cruelty and advance standards in animal welfare. Our staff and volunteers work tirelessly in the pursuit of our vision of a world where all companion animals find permanent homes to end euthanasia. For more information, visit www.animalleague.org.
The money you are so generously donating will be helping to save animals' lives across the country through Animal League America's humane relocation program. Animal League's national humane relocation program is made possible through both established and emerging collaborations with shelters nationwide, in the Animal League's ongoing mission to add to the more than one million lives it has saved since 1944. North Shore Animal League America's national humane relocation program has employed well-equipped, climate-controlled rescue vans and mobile units to transport pets from overcrowded municipal shelters (where many would be euthanized) to the safety of the Animal League since 1991. By doing so, countless numbers of animals have been matched with families and individuals in the New York City Tri-State area, where the demand for these loving pets is great. This humane relocation effort has already been the Animal League's most far-reaching program to date, responsible for saving hundreds of thousands of dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens since the program's inception.

SUMMARY REPORT OF 2nd
The 2nd meeting of the SWPIO TWS Working Group was convened from to ,
Dr. Phil Cummins,
Gaye Downes,
Dr. Laura Kong,
Dr. Stuart Weinstein, PTWC
The following Terms of Reference were discussed and actions reported on:
Summary of
A presentation entitled "Feasibility Study for a Tsunami Warning System in the SW Pacific"
was given in the "Tsunami Training: Warning Guidance" session by Phil R. Cummins of Geoscience
A tsunami warning system for the SW Pacific would likely involve establishment of a regional center capable of acquiring and rapidly analysing both seismic and sea level data. This would require a reliable high-bandwidth internet connection as well as highly-trained staff, and would likely take several years to develop. However, a proposal was put forward for a simple feasibility study that would, for a limited time, use earthquake alerts already produced by international agencies. A regional office would monitor only the sea level data from the SPSLCMP tide gauge network to verify whether a tsunami has actually occurred. This would have the advantage that the process of monitoring earthquake alerts and sea level data could be initiated at relatively modest cost, and potential for reliable and timely tsunami warnings could be assessed. If the results of the study were positive, suggesting that reliable warnings could be issued quickly, this may provide support for the establishment of a permanent tsunami warning system.
5. The proposal generated much interest and was followed on Day 3 of the SPTAW by a discussion session which recommended the formation of a South Pacific Working Group and endorsed the proposal to investigate the feasibility for tsunami warning services. These recommendations were further elaborated upon to formulate SPTAW Recommendations (Objectives, Outcomes, Activities) by the Tsunami Hazard & Risk Identification Working Group in the session that followed. The Workshop Recommendations are being presented for further discussion at the SOPAC
The Tsunami Session currently consists of at least about 8-9 papers, including the following:
Summary of SPTAW (SOPAC,
Historical Database (GTDB/ITDB, Gaye Downes & Hugh Cowans)
SWPIO TWS Feasibility Study/SPTAW Feasibility Study (Cummins & Kaluwin)
PTWC (Chip McCreery)

Recommendation ITSU-XIX.4: Working Group on the Tsunami Warning System in the Southwest Pacific and Indian Ocean [endoresed by the IOC Executive Council at its 37th Session in June 2004]
The International Co-ordination Group for the Tsunami Warning System in the Pacific,
Recognizing that the Southwest Pacific and Indian Ocean has a significant threat from both local and distant tsunamis;
Further recognizing that some areas of this region are not covered by the PTWC;
Noting the interest of Member States in the Indian Ocean and Southwest Pacific regions to enhance their tsunami warning services;
Acknowledges that Indonesia has decided to develop its National Tsunami Warning System with already existing and planned upgrades to seismic and sea-level networks and that the PTWC provides distant tsunami warnings for the Southwest Pacific;
Further acknowledging that there may be mutual benefits to these regions and to the Tsunami Warning System in the Pacific from the establishment of this system;
Decides to establish an intersessional Working Group on the Southwest Pacific and Indian Ocean with the following Terms of Reference:
- to evaluate capabilities of countries in these regions for providing tsunami warning services;
- to ascertain requirements from countries in the Southwest Pacific and Indian Ocean for the tsunami warning services.
Requests Australia and ITIC to prepare a draft prior to the next SOPAC meeting for consideration by the Working Group.
Recommends that the Group be composed of representatives from Indonesia, Australia, Fiji, New Zealand, Japan, Observer from Papua New Guinea and the Directors of ITIC and PTWC and Chaired by the Representative of Indonesia.
Acknowledges that ITSU is the Co-ordination Body for the Tsunami Warning System in the Pacific (TWSP) and encourages non-ITSU Member States to contact the IOC Secretariat to request membership of the ICG/ITSU.
Financial implications:
US$ 5,000 for 2004; US$ 5,000 for 2005.

Mandatory Reporting at William & Mary
General Reporting Obligation - Code of Ethics
The College of William & Mary's Code of Ethics, adopted by the Board of Visitors in 2009, obligates all members of the university community to report any illegal or unethical conduct that comes to their attention, "so the university can investigate and take corrective steps." The Code of Ethics is focused on illegal or unethical conduct by members of the W&M community relating to the W&M community. Examples include:
- Theft of university funds or assets (which can be reported internally or through the Commonwealth's Fraud, Waste and Abuse hotline)
- Refusal by a faculty member to adhere to lab safety protocols, exposing students to unsafe research conditions
- A procurement employee selecting a particular vendor after receiving valuable gifts from the vendor.
Criminal conduct that poses a threat to the safety of the campus must also be reported; these reports should be made to the William & Mary Police.
There are many ways to make reports, file complaints, or otherwise bring to light violations or concerns. The Office of Compliance & Policy has information about the different reporting and complaint mechanisms. The Chief Compliance Officer can accept reports and provide information.
Specific Reporting Obligations
In addition to the general reporting requirement in the Code of Ethics, there are specific reporting requirements imposed on university employees by law and university policy:
- All employees must report suspected child abuse (abuse of a minor),
- Campus Security Authorities must report to W&M Police certain types of criminal conduct ("Clery Act crimes") occurring on campus or W&M-controlled property,
- All employees must report convictions of certain drug or alcohol law violations,
- All employees must report sexual harassment affecting a student, including sexual violence such as sexual assault and non-consensual sexual intercourse,
- Faculty, supervisors, and managers must report any incidents or complaints of discrimination or harassment, under the Policy on Discrimination, Harassment, and Retaliation, and
- All employees must report threats and acts of violence.
University employees in certain positions or who are engaged in certain activities, such as grant-sponsored research, may be subject to additional reporting requirements.
1. Child Abuse - Virginia Law Requiring Reporting of Suspected Abuse of a Minor
Information about this legal obligation is available on the Compliance Resources webpage.
2. Federal Law (Clery Act) and University Policy Requiring Reporting of Certain Criminal Conduct
All university individuals designated as Campus Security Authority are subject to the university's Crime Reporting Policy. Guidance on Campus Security Authorities' obligations is provided on a Compliance Resource page.
3. Virginia Policy Requiring Reporting of Convictions for Alcohol Law and Drug Law Violations
Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Human Resources policy requires self-disclosure of certain alcohol or drugs law conviction. This policy applies to all W&M employees, including faculty.
Employees must report, in writing within five days after the conviction, to their supervisors of any conviction of:
- violation of any criminal drug law, based upon conduct occurring either in or outside of the workplace; or
- violation of any alcohol control law, based upon conduct occurring in the workplace or while the employee is performing university duties, including driving while intoxicated. If you are not on the job or performing W&M duties when you get a DUI or DWI, you do not need to report it.
If you are appealing a conviction, you still need to report it.
Any employee who fails to report will be subject to the full range of discipline, including discharge.
The State Department of Human Resources Management makes available a one-page summary of the policy [pdf].
4. University Policy Requiring Reporting of Sexual Harassment, Including Sexual Assault of a Student, and Requiring Supervisors to Report Other Types of Discrimination, Harassment, or Retaliation
Information about these reporting obligations is provided in the Discrimination, Harassment, and Retaliation Policy and the Sexual Harassment and Assault Guidance for Employees. A checklist for staff or faculty assisting a student who reports sexual misconduct is also available. As explained in more detail in the Policy and Guidance:
- All faculty and staff, except for those who work in the Student Health Center, Counseling Center, and the Haven, are required to report specific incidents of sexual harassment, including sexual assault, affecting students. This means that if an employee becomes aware that a student has been sexually assaulted or otherwise harassed, and is aware of the identity of the student, that employee must bring the incident to the attention of appropriate administrators so that help can be provided to the student. Faculty and staff should use the Full Disclosure Report option.
- All faculty, supervisors, and managers must report all other incidents of discrimination, harassment, or retaliation of which they become aware. As with the sexual harassment reporting obligation, this reporting duty is triggered when the supervisor, manager or faculty member becomes aware of a specific incident involving specific people. The report should be made to the appropriate office as shown in the discrimination poster. http://www.wm.edu/offices/compliance/policies/discrimination_harassment_retaliation/DiscriminationResourcesandFilingOptions.pdf
5. State Law and University Policy Requiring Reporting of Threats
To help William & Mary satisfy its obligation under the Virginia law on threat assessment and to maintain a safe and secure campus community, all students and employees – including faculty – are required to report acts of violence, threats and threatening behavior, under the university Campus Violence and Threat Management Policy[pdf].
The Policy lists university officers to whom reports can be made. Additional information about identifying and responding to threats and concerning behavior is available on the university's violence prevention and education website.

The High-Repetition-Rate Advanced Petawatt Laser System (HAPLS) under construction in the Czech Republic is designed to generate a peak power of more than 1 quadrillion watts (1 petawatt, 1015 watts). The key component to this instrument – the laser "pump" – will be a set of solid-state laser diode arrays recently constructed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). At peak power, this electronic assemblage develops a staggering 3.2 million watts of power and are the most powerful laser diode arrays ever built. Read More
DNAtrax tracks tainted food with molecular bar code
January 11, 2015
According to the US Center for Disease Control (CDC), 129,000 Americans are sent to hospital and 3,000 die each year from food poisoning. Currently, tracing contaminated food is largely a matter of record keeping and detective work, but Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) researchers, in partnership with DNATrek, have developed DNATrax, a DNA-based additive for directly tracking food from producer to consumer.

Nuclear weapons write their own security codes
November 24, 2014
Nuclear weapons are a paradox. No one in their right mind wants to use one, but if they're to act as a deterrent, they need to be accessible. The trick is to make sure that access is only available to those with the proper authority. To prevent a real life General Jack D Ripper from starting World War III, Livermore National Laboratory's (LLNL) Defense Technologies Division is developing a system that uses a nuclear weapon's own radiation to protect itself from tampering.

Earlier this year, we heard about how DARPA (the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) was setting up its new Biological Technologies Office. The goal of that division is to "merge biology, engineering, and computer science to harness the power of natural systems for national security." This week, the agency released details of one of the office's key projects, called Restoring Active Memory. It's aimed at using implantable "neuroprosthetics" to help army veterans and other people recover from memory deficits caused by brain injury or disease. Read More
Imagine materials strong enough to use in building airplanes or motor cars, yet are literally lighter than air. Soon, that may not be so hard to do because a team of researchers from MIT and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have developed new ultra-lightweight materials that are as light as aerogel, but 10,000 times stiffer, and may one day revolutionize aerospace and automotive designs.

LLNL improving the efficiency of 3D metal printing
June 18, 2014
To paraphrase Samuel Johnson, there was a time when 3D metal printing was like a dog walking on his hind legs – it wasn't done well; but you were surprised to find it done at all. Now that laser sintering or Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is used for everything from printing rocket engine components to semi-automatic pistols, the time for surprise may b long past, but the technology still has plenty of room for improvement. That's why researchers at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) are working on simulations to improve the speed of 3D laser printing and the quality of the final product by using higher-powered lasers.

Scientists announce breakthrough in quest for fusion power
February 13, 2014
In a perfect example of beating swords into plowshares, a team of scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's (LLNL) National Ignition Facility (NIF) in California reached a milestone in the quest for practical fusion power using a process designed for the development and testing of nuclear weapons. The announcement in the February 12 issue of Nature claims that the team used the world's most powerful laser barrage to produce a controlled fusion reaction where more energy was extracted from the fuel than was put into it.

Following almost 10 years of development, the Gemini Observatory has debuted an advanced planet imaging instrument and captured a direct image of exoplanet Beta Pictoris b, signifying a breakthrough in our ability to analyze extrasolar planets. Called the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI), the tool uses an advanced optics system with an infrared spectograph to retrieve direct images of young planets orbiting distant stars. Read More
DARPA recently revealed information on its ARGUS-IS (Autonomous Real-Time Ground Ubiquitous Surveillance Imaging System), a surveillance camera that uses hundreds of smartphone image sensors to record a 1.8 gigapixel image. Designed for use in an unmanned drone (probably an MQ-1 Predator), from an altitude of 20,000 ft (6,100 m) ARGUS can keep a real-time video eye on an area 4.5 miles (7.2 km) across down to a resolution of about six inches (15 cm).
