The latest news and events from Tiger Roar
Saturday April 25th 2015
Connor Thompson
opened scoring
Harry White
lovely finish
It's not often you can come away from a game where you've scored six goals and not feel bad about it.
Despite City's decent recent form it was always going to be a tough ask to turn over AFC Fylde, a team who would've won the title with this result had Barrow not won at Lowestoft.
Connor Thompson gave the Tigers an early lead when Mike Green got around the back and sent in a wonderful cross to the near post. The winger got himself between the defender and goalkeeper to bundle the ball in. It was short lived though as the home team scored with a deflected free kick and then a soft penalty which Harry White was booked for pulling their player over.
Chris Knowles thumped in a header at the far post from Billy Jones' sumptuous corner just before the break but within seconds of the restart Fylde were ahead again when a beautiful cross from the right wing travelled across the six-yard box before being tapped in at the far post.
Fylde had scored two quick goals in the first half and City did it in the second; White beat two defenders and curled a lovely shot inside the far post before Nick Wright beat the offside trap but was brought down by a combination of defender and goalkeeper. Jones made no mistake from twelve yards.
Two points of note from that. One was that I was sat next to the worst kind of home fan who described Harry's goal as poor defending, despite his skill and finess to get in a goalscoring position and then put it away. Then there's the fact that Harry has had his critics, but now that he's got his feet under the table at City he must stay next season and make that number nine shirt his own. He'll score twenty goals.
The scoreboard at Kellamergh Park looked good with City ahead but it wasn't going to last. They scored three more, including another penalty but it was for nothing as Barrow won and they had to face the lottery of the playoffs.

Harry White in control at AFC Fylde
Saturday April 18th 2015
Harry White
two goals
Harvey Rivers
Where did this ridiculous run of form come from? All that stress through the season and now we manage to go unbeaten for over a month and but for a blip at Gainsborough we'd have won our last six games.
In previous seasons it hasn't gone as close to the wire as this one so it was a weird feeling going to Whaddon to watch a dead rubber and the result almost didn't matter to me.
The one thing that I liked about today was our opponents. We've played the likes of Halifax and Chester but those were pheonix clubs. Stockport are THE Stockport County that we remember from the olden days; Kevin Francis, Danny Bergara et al. They've had a remarkable fall from grace and won't be too keen to be reminded that we've now beaten them twice!
That said, they were shite and didn't really up their game until the latter stages of the second half, by which time Harry White had scored two tap in's and spurned at least another couple of chances to grab a hat-trick.
His first came when Billy Jones seemed to mis-hit a cross and with Nick Wright having an air shot at the near post the Stockport goalkeeper was wrong footed and White beat Sam Avery to the ball to bang it into the roof of the net. The second was all about Femi Orenuga and his wing wizardary as he cut in from the touchline and laid off a simple ball for Harry to slot home. When our wingers do their job we win, it's that simple.
They pulled a goal back with ten minutes to go when they scored after two efforts had been cleared off of the line. It was the only blot on debutant goalkeeper Harvey Rivers' long awaited debut.
Onto AFC Fylde to piss on their promotion parade next Saturday!

Harry Williams
There are wins and there are wins but there was more to this one.
It wasn't because it continued our recent excellent form. It wasn't because it secured our place in the Conference North for another year. It wasn't even because Tyler Weir joined the wrong club. It was because it kept up this fantastic record of straight wins against our "local" rivals Worcester.
Backed by around a hundred and fifty travelleing fans City took an early lead when ex-Worcester man Nick Wright found winger Femi Orenuga with a delighful pass behind Weir and as Nathan Vaughan's usual gung-ho style of rushing off his line it gave Femi a perfect opening to roll the ball into the far corner. That said, how both Worcester defender Anthony Charles and Harry Williams failed to get a touch is a mystery.
Both teams had half chances to score but the home side were presented with a perfect opportunity to level matters when Mike Green got a hold of Mike Symons' shirt in the area. It's not like Symo's game is mostly played with his arms but the referee was far too keen to award a spot kick and City keeper Paul White had no chance as Sean Geddes rifled the ball home.
The Tigers had to weather the storm in the second half as Worcester looked to arrest the terrible run they're having against is but they were out of luck as Tim Harris' men netted what turned out to be the winning goal.
White sent a drop kick up field for striker Williams to chase. Another former Tiger, Kyle Haynes couldn't stop him and a clever ball through to Wright saw the shot blocked and as the ball lopped up into the air Williams strode past a static defence to score.
We are staying up!

Harry Williams
glanced header
Tom Webb
what more can be said
Most of us who follow this football club are grown adults and whilst there may not have been too many of us at Gainsborough on Monday to feel that absolute dagger in the heart that the late goals thrust into us our wounds were certainly healed by Tom Webb's superb last minute winner against Chorley here today.
It's ridiculous the emotions that "only a game" puts us through.
After Webby's goal there were chants of "We are staying up" from the T-End. It's not mathematical yet but it should be after we beat Worcester at Aggborough on Tuesday evening.
Chorley are decent mind and they came here today with a six-game winning run behind them. To their credit they didn't waste much possession and after they took the lead through a soft penalty when an attacker ran into Sam Avery and went down it looked like it might be a long afternoon for the City fans.
However, lovely skill out wide by Nick Wright made room for a cross which Harry Williams got something on and the ball looped high over goalkeeper Sam Ashton before going in off of the top of the post. I don't know who was more surprised!
Wright had a great chance to give City the lead having got his head to Mike Green's cross but his header glanced narrowly wide of the post.
The Manchester team grew into the game in the second and the Tigers did well to get men behind the ball and restrict them. Former Halifax man James Dean, who'd given them the lead from the spot had their only chance of the half but plundered his shot over Paul White's crossbar.
Jim Bowen smashed a shot into the crossbar and when substitute Harry White was denied by a great block by Ashton late on we thought it was all over, but it wasn't. Tom Webb responded to shouts of "Gamble" from the City bench and beat a host of defenders before hitting a sweet left footed shot low into the bottom corner from outside the box.

Nick Wright
two goals
I don't think we're going to go down now but if we do we'll look back at these last five minutes at Gainsborough today in the same way that we recalll those at Ninian Park twenty-five years ago.
We were so comfortable. Two goals up going into the games final throes and then Chris Knowles gives away a free kick, their goalkeeper punts it into the area, Paul White is thinking should I stay or should I go and is caught in no mans land when Darryn Stamp pwers a header over him. Two minutes later a cut back from inside the area on the right hand side and Stamp has the ball in the net via a deflection.
I know that they say it's only a game and all that but it's hard to put into words how pissed off that made me feel. And then we had a long trip home.
Both halves had started so well too. Nick Wright might've scuffed his first goal in but they all count. His second was decent mind. Jim Bowen found him with a ball over the top and he ran in from the left hand side before lashing him a shot with the outside of his right foot. The keeper had no chance.
The ending to the story though perfectly sums up why we are where we are.

Saturday April 5th 2015
Sam Avery
For once we've managed not to foul up a six-pointer!
OK, it might not have been the best spectacle; City didn't play the best football in the first half, even though they did take the lead when Sam Avery powered home a header from Billy Jones' corner. The set piece was perfection itself which leads me to ask why haven't we scored more goals from corners? We get enough!
When we lost 1-4 at Leamington earlier in the season it was Adam Connolly who got our consolation goal. It was fitting then that he got on the scoresheet again. His go up there was a stunning strike, this wasn't as good but it still counted. A free kick was half cleared and he took his time to curl a shot in from the left hand corner of the penalty area.
The third came from youngster Harry Williams. Tom Webb had shrugged off the challenge of a wrong-sided defender and laid the ball off for Williams who took a touch before shooting between his markers legs with the keeper rooted to the spot.
To Leamington's credit they didn't lie down and die, the got one back when Nick Wright made a late run into the box for a defensive corner and haplessly deflected a clearance beyond Paul White. They followed that with an unbelieveable miss from in front of the goal before they were denied a penalty late on.
These three points were very handy indeed.

Femi Orenuga
star man
It's been a good week.
A point at in form Bradford on Monday night followed by all three here at Solihull today has moved City out of the bottom three. Can we just end the season now please?
Solihull barely threeatened. Paul White was called into action a couple of times and did his job well and there was a goalmouth scramble in the second half which caused a few hearts to flutter but overall the Birmingham team were second best as City earned a deserved win.
Inept refereeing created the first goal; Tom Webb had made a surging run when he was fouled. Everyone said it was inside the area but the ref bottled it and gave a free kick outside. Not even a word with the defender let alone a red card owing to him being last man. Billy Jones' free kick was cleared but on the attacks second wave Femi Orenuga went down under the challenge of a defender giving the referee no option but to point to the spot from which Jones made no mistake.
Femi got the second at the start of the second half. He beat two defenders to the ball after a great move involving improving winger Jim Bowen and new striker Nick Wright.
A great win, now we need to build on it by beating Leamington at Whaddon Road on Saturday.

wonder goal
A point is better than nothing I suppose but again having taken the lead City couldn't hold it as Bradford equalised to deny the Tigers a much needed victory.
Defender Matt Williams had given Tim Harris' men a half time lead with a superb strike on the run before Chib Chilaka grabbed the leveller midway through the second half.
The point lifts City out of the relegation zone.

City scorer
Let's just forget that this happened and concentrate on the eight Cup Finals we've got between now and the end of the season eh?
Our destiny is in our own hands, albeit against some very good teams and it might all end with an away game behind a pub in Lancashire with one team needing to win to stay up and the other to win the league!
We took the lead today; Harry White rifled home from close range after a scruffy game of pinball in the six-yard box but Paul White spilled a free kick and was punished before they won the game late in the second half.
Let's just put it all behind us.

Saturday March 14th 2015
Sahr Kabba
hit post
As much as last week's results went our way the precarious nature of our position was highlighted by Colwyn Bay's shock win at home to Tamworth as we fell to an unlucky defeat at the hands of Boston United.
Boston have takken teams apart at their will. They didn't do it to us but they still won. And we lost.
We played well. Worked hard and frustrated a team who always seem to do well and are themselves heading towards a berth in the playoffs.
City pretty much had six at the back to try to cope with them and the offset of this was a lean afternoon for the strikers. The closest we came to scoring was a great turn and shot by Sahr Kabba as half time approached.
Boston were restricted to few chances too but having been denied by a great save from Paul White in the first half Boston striker Mark Jones wasn't going to miss when James Bowen mishit a clearance into his path.
Super. Smashing. Great.

Boston Goal
Saturday March 7th 2015
Adam Connolly
shot from distance
This could've been so much worse. Harrogate has never been somewhere that we've done well, despite their constant failure in the face of spending loads of money they always seem to beat us up there as they did today.
Despite playing well and creating chances the home side took a two goal second half lead before Sahr Kabba pulled one back as he slotted home the rebound from Adam Connolly's shot.
However, the defeat was effectively rendered meaningless with everyone except bottom placed Hyde losing meaning that we're one game closer to the end of the season with that five point cushion intact.
It does now mean that the game at Stalybridge in a fortnight will define our season!

Sunday March 1st 2015
Ross Staley
consolation goal
What can you say after such an embarrassing scoreline?
The last time we lost 1-7 at home was against Bedworth in 2001. Make noi bones about it, we were shit back then. We aren't now. Before the game there was talk of a win against Oxford taking us back up into fourteenth place. After the game the table just doesn't look at all pretty.
To be fair the omens were bad. I paid Ł2.50 for a programme and then dropped it into the urinal within minutes. It was a bad start to a bad day.
The team selection was very defensive for a home game, 4-5-1 and to go in 1-4 down at half time probably suggested that it didn't work. We only lost the second half 0-3 and we have goalkeeper Paul White to thank for keeping it to seven. We could've seriously lost by double that.
Ross Staley's glancing header which crept in at the far post saw us equalise within a minute of Darren Pond's unstoppable drive but Tom Winters leathered home an angled drive from the left hand side to put them back in front.
When has Winters not scored against us?
Within a couple of minutes of that goal they scored with a header from a corner, White stayed on his line when in hindsight he might've come out to claim it but what seemed the games turned point happened just before the break. Femi Orenuga was denied by a superb point blank save but really should've scored and they went up the other end and grabbed their fourth when no-one dealt with a centre across the face of goal before it was squeezed in from a narrow angle.
A change of formation at half time probably helped but it still didn't stop them scoring.
However it was the nature of all three goals, each one of them out of the top drawer which would raise concern. Each shot found the top corner giving White no chance and it could've been worse, they had one ruled out for offside too.
We simply have to improve. There are eleven games left and some of those are against better teams than Oxford!

Billy Jones
scored again
Ross Staley
A bit of a disappointing afternoon at Whaddon today with City struggling to create anything against a Colwyn Bay team who seem to have the Indian sign over them, having to eventually settle for a point thanks to another Billy Jones penalty.
Their 1-3 win in Wales in November was the last time that they'd won and when Obi Anouro glanced home a free kick midway through the first half it looked like it might be their next one.
The goal had come minutes after Lewis Hall had been crudely taken out of the game after running three quarters of the pitch by Mike Wilson's body check. Jones' free kick was stright out of the top drawer but hit the bar and bounced down but was cleared away to safety.
Whilst Hall went off nursing a shoulder injury the City fans were given a first look at new signing Ross Staley. He looked good, crossing early with his left foot. We haven't had many wingers who could do that over recent years. Now all it needs is for the strikers to read them!
City improved in the second half and were eventually rewarded when Tom Webb was fouled. It was a strange one because it was simply a kick, with the sound of the challenge accompanying it. Both players went to ground feeling the effects of it as the referee pointed to the spot, from which Billy made no mistake.
Femi Orenuga had a shot turned onto the post late on but some things in life are destined never to be. If Bay fail to improve they'll go down and we'll probably never have the chance to beat them again!

IRVING, Texas -- After a week of trying to find answers, it seems Bruce Carter has found them.
Carter has gotten the bulk of the snaps with the first-team defense at weakside linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys and is expected to start Sunday night's game at the New Orleans Saints.
"So far so good," Carter said after Friday's practice.
Carter was the projected starter at the start of a season that has been filled with ups and downs. He lost the starting gig to Ernie Sims. But after Sims struggled Sunday in Dallas' victory against the Minnesota Vikings, Carter took over in the second half.
It seemed that Carter was still trying to regain the confidence of the coaches and reclaim the starting job he lost after allowing two scores at San Diego.
"I guess you could say that," Carter said. "I don't know. You have to ask them. I'm just out here trying to play ball and play my style."
Carter's struggles have come in the passing game, and the Saints love to spread the ball around. Quarterback Drew Brees has three players ranked in the top 20 in the NFC in receptions: tight end Jimmy Graham and running backs Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles.
Carter might have to cover all three of those players Sunday night.
"They got great weapons, and we're going to try our best to devise something and double-team them," Carter said. "Try to eliminate those guys and make somebody else beat us. But for the most part we got a great game plan, and we have to go out and execute it."

HP Thursday put out an x86 server it claims is purpose-built for Big Data.
It says existing architectures aren't designed to handle the specific needs of Big Data workloads such as Hadoop, MPP data warehouses, Big Data analytics and object stores, and that early deployments have returned suboptimal results in terms of performance and cost.
It claims its new wonder will save the user up to $1 million over three years.
As the kind of ultra-dense solution required by these workloads, the new HP ProLiant SL4500 server series is supposed to provide maximum performance, productivity and cost-effectiveness.
It's said to consume up to 50% less space and 61% less power for 31% less money while using 63% fewer cables.
The modular design of the series offers various compute and storage configurations so clients can optimize their infrastructure for a workload-specific application, rather than piece together incongruent hardware for the supporting infrastructure.
The widgetry supports multiple Apache Hadoop vendors including Cloudera and Hortonworks, as well as OpenStack Cloud Software and MongoDB.
The ProLiant SL4500 server series in a single-node configuration is available immediately worldwide for a starting price of $7,643.
HP says current server offerings cannot address the rapidly growing amounts of storage and servers for Big Data, forcing IT leaders to acquire additional expensive data center space. However, the new ProLiant SL4500 server series solves this problem by delivering industry-leading storage density of up to 240TB in a single 4.3 U chassis, or 2.16PB with nine servers in an industry-standard 42-U rack.
The latest member of the HP ProLiant Generation 8 (Gen8) family, the HP SL4500 server series, is uses HP's ProActive Insight Architecture, which embeds intelligence and automation capabilities to eliminate down time and safeguard valuable data.

The basic integration architecture, as defined by ESBs, hasn't changed for more than a decade. Most cloud integration providers still rely on an ESB architecture and their proprietary connectors. As a result, enterprise integration projects suffer from constraints of availability and reliability of these connectors that are not re-usable across other integration vendors. However, the rapid adoption of APIs and almost ubiquitous availability of APIs amongst most SaaS and Cloud applications are rapidly redefining traditional integration approaches and their reliance on proprietary connectors. ...

Michael Orthofer runs the Complete Review – a book review site with a focus on international fiction – and its Literary Saloon weblog.
Final selections
The deadlines approach – well, that one first, big deadline: with the Best Translated Book Award longlist due to be announced March 11 we judges have to decide what makes the 25-book cut. Twenty-five titles seems like a lot, but the procedure is that each of us submits our top-ten list (on March 1), from which the top sixteen vote-getters make the longlist, and then each judge gets to add one personal choice to round off the list, for a total of twenty-five titles. So each of us only gets to select ten+one titles. (Last year, only six of my top-ten choices for the longlist made it (with a seventh then slipping on as the plus-one).)
Since my top-ten/must-have list currently stands at roughly fourteen titles (fluctuating daily, as two or three titles different fall in and out of favor, depending on my mood …) this is proving a more arduous exercise than I had hoped. Twenty-five slots would be easy (well, easier … maybe) to fill), but ten feels really, really tight.
There are half a dozen or so titles that I simply can't not put in my top-ten (which, in cruel-tease-form I won't name here – though I'm probably sufficiently on the record regarding my feelings about them elsewhere …) – because I think they are really the most deserving (and, in some cases, because I worry that they might otherwise be overlooked) – but after that it gets complicated. There are a couple of titles that so many judges already seem to feel enthusiastic about that I'm not sure I need to put my full weight behind them yet – books by recent BTBA winners like Wiesław Myśliwski's A Treatise on Shelling Beans or Krasznahorkai's Seiobo There Below, for example, or Karl Ove Knausgaard's My Struggle II, among others. But it's hard to leave off any title that I truly want in the running: one favorite not making the initial cut is okay, since we each get to add that one personal selection, but likely there will be several that don't get enough votes, making for quite a quandary with that lone personal selection…..
There are a lot of titles at the upper margins, the ones that I think I could make a case for – clear top-25 titles, to me, but maybe not top-ten (though some days I'm convinced title X is, other days title Y …).
There are the big novels my name-authors: Javier Marías' The Infatuations (translated by Margaret Jull Costa), Antonio Muñoz Molina's In the Night of Time (translated by Edith Grossman, The Economist just recently reminding us that: "Its author, one of Spain's leading writers, has been unjustly ignored in the English-speaking world. With this book, he should get the acclaim he deserves" (though Entertainment Weekly (yes, well …) suggests the novel moves at: "the pace of a narcotized elephant" …)), Christa Wolf's City of Angels.
There are the works by authors who have been getting great reviews and quickly gaining large followings, like Robert Walser (A Schoolboy's Diary) and Elena Ferrante The Story of a New Name.
There are translations that have already won translation prizes: Ten White Geese by Gerbrand Bakker, which won (under a different title) the British counterpart to the BTBA, the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize 2013 and Dimitri Verhulst's Vondel Translation Prize-winning The Misfortunates. And I was already on a translation-prize-jury that found Elfriede Jelinek's Her Not All Her to be a worthy winner – the 2011 Austrian Cultural Forum Translation Prize – so how can I not longlist it this time around? (Sure, the competition might be tougher here – certainly there are a lot more titles in the running – but this remarkable piece of work (and the excellent translation) continues to stand out – helped also by the fact that it's different from almost everything else we're looking at.)
There are the smaller works that linger nicely (and often don't seem to have gotten enough attention). Sure, Amélie Nothomb's Life Form is kind of simple much of the way – but in its conclusion totally won me over. Jang Eun-jin's No One Writes Back – among the least-Dalkeyesque of the (many) Dalkey Archive Press titles to consider – has been among this year's most pleasant reading surprises. The same goes for Uday Prakash's The Girl with the Golden Parasol, a rare (okay, the only …) translation from the Hindi we get to consider. And while Yoko Ogawa's Revenge is the rare smaller (paperback original, too) title in translation to get pretty widespread coverage I still think it's widely misread as a story-collection: I find it comes together beautifully and very effectively as a unified novel-whole. And then there's a book like Jan Jacob Slauerhoff's The Forbidden Kingdom, which held me rapt and whose strangeness still haunts me.
Finally, there's than annual search for a worthy 'genre' title – a top-notch thriller, solid sci-fi, or the like. There were certainly mysteries and thrillers galore to consider this year (like every year), but it was not a great year – with the highly touted ones feeling particularly derivative. I suppose Ogawa's Revenge might be considered genre, of sorts (horror). Otherwise, there's only one of these titles in my mix: Ofir Touché Gafla's The World of the End (and not just because of the author's awesome/ridiculous name – touché!), which certainly hasn't gotten the ('mainstream') attention it deserves.
Of course, time is not yet up, the decision doesn't have to be made yet. I still have a few
weeks days of reading ahead of me, a few more books to discover and consider. Part of me hopes to find another gem – but part of me also worries: what then? which book gets knocked off the already too-long list?

The Fatawa presented in these volumes have been selected from the whole collection of the Fatawa of the learned Shaikh Muhammad bin Salih Al-'Uthaimeen and translated into the English language. These Fatawa are distinguished by their reliance upon the Book of Allah, the Most High, the Sunnah of His Messenger (S) and the opinions of the scholars who are known for their investigative powers.
We hope that these Fatawa will provide the people great help, knowledge and understanding of the finer points of religious aspects.
All praise and thanks are to Allah, we praise Him and we seek His Aid and we ask His Forgiveness; and we seek refuge with Allah from the evil of ourselves and the wickedness of our deeds. Whomsoever Allah guides, there is none to misguide him and whomsoever He leaves astray, there is none who can guide him. And I testify that none is worthy of worship except Allah and I testify that Muhammad is His servant and His Messenger, may the peace of Allah and bountiful blessings be upon him and upon his family and Companions. As for what follows:
Some brothers, may Allah reward them with goodness, have expressed a desire to see some of the questions related to the pillars of Islam which were asked of our Shaikh, the most learned Shaikh, Muhammad bin Salih Al-'Uthaimeen may Allah, the Most High bless him. The hope was for them to be published in the Arabic language and following that, to be translated into many different languages in order to spread the benefit of them. Indeed, these verdicts are distinguished by their reliance upon the Book of Allah, the Most High, the Sunnah of His Messenger (S), and the opinions of the scholars who are known for their investigative powers. So I put the matter to our Shaikh may Allah bless him and reward him for his support for Islam and the Muslims with the best of rewards and he welcomed the idea and encouraged it, since it was a form of mutual cooperation in encouraging the good and forbidding the evil, and of spreading Islamic knowledge.
After His Eminence expressed his agreement and gave his advice, the process of gathering these Fatawa and selecting them from the whole collection of the Fatawa began and continued until the work was completed.
I ask Allah, the Almighty, the All-Powerful by His Grace and Generosity to make this work beneficial and to make it purely for His Noble Face, and that He reward His Eminence, our Shaikh with the best of rewards, and to bless him in his knowledge, his deeds and his life-span. Verily, Allah is Beneficent and Generous. May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet, Muhammad and upon all of his family and his Companions.

The key elements of OMB's May 2012 requirements for agencies are the prohibition of conferences with costs in excess of $500,000 unless the agency head signs a waiver, establishment of a Deputy Secretary-level review process for conferences with estimated costs in excess of $100,000, and public reporting annually on the costs of these conferences. DOD adopted a tiered approval structure for the senior-level approval of waivers and all conference-related costs. DOD's policy, which cites the department's size and complexity, places the approval authority for conference waivers and for conferences costing less than $500,000 at lower levels than called for by OMB. For example, OMB requires that waivers approving conferences with costs in excess of $500,000 be signed by the head of an agency, while DOD's policy delegates this authority to 23 senior leaders throughout the department. DOD's policy is more expansive as it requires senior-level review and pre-approval of all conference-related costs, compared to OMB's requirement for senior-level review of conferences only when the estimated costs exceed $100,000. DOD's policy also fully addresses OMB's requirement to publicly report conference costs annually and adds a requirement for quarterly internal reporting of conference costs.
In implementing DOD's September 2012 policy (the existing policy when GAO conducted the majority of its review), DOD components--including the military departments--have taken various approaches to reviewing and approving conference requests, all of which are consistent with the policy. For example, DOD's policy allows senior officials within each component to delegate certain approval authority to lower-level officials for DOD-hosted conferences costing $500,000 or less and non-DOD hosted conferences costing $100,000 or less, but the components have delegated approval authority to different degrees. A majority of the 563 conference requests that GAO reviewed addressed and documented key elements consistent with DOD and component-level guidance. In requests that were missing documentation of one or more key elements, GAO found that a specific element was not missing from a significant number of requests. While the components' implementation of the conference review and approval process has generally been consistent with DOD's policy, some officials within the components and military service commands have identified concerns, particularly with the lengthy approval process. The officials explained that requests to attend conferences have to pass through multiple offices and individuals, sometimes taking several months to be approved. In particular, officials raised questions about the efficiency of reviews for requests to attend conferences that incurred no cost or a low cost (under $20,000) to DOD, which at the time of GAO's review went through the same process as higher-cost conferences. Almost 94 percent of the 405 requests to attend non-DOD hosted conferences that GAO reviewed were for conferences with no cost or a low cost to DOD. DOD in November 2013 updated its policy to state that approval is not required for conferences incurring no cost for DOD. However, a DOD official involved in writing DOD's conference policy stated that components still have the option to review conferences with no cost to DOD to facilitate senior leaders' visibility over conference attendance by personnel within their component.
Why GAO Did This Study
DOD hosts conferences and sends its personnel to external conferences for training, professional development, and continuing education. However, concerns about executive agencies' spending on conferences prompted OMB in 2012 to direct agencies to establish policies and practices for conference hosting and attendance. DOD issued its policy in September 2012 to improve oversight of conference costs and updated it in November 2013, citing lessons learned from implementing the September 2012 policy, among other things.
The conference report accompanying the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 mandated that GAO review DOD's oversight and management of conferences. This report assesses (1) the extent to which DOD's conference policy is consistent with OMB's conference requirements and (2) how DOD components have implemented DOD's conference policy. GAO assessed DOD's 2012 conference policy and 2013 update against OMB requirements and reviewed components' implementation of the policy. GAO analyzed responses to a questionnaire completed by officials from 72 components and military commands and reviewed 563 requests for conferences planned for the second and third quarters of fiscal year 2013.
GAO is not making recommendations in this report. In written comments, DOD concurred with GAO's findings and noted that it remains committed to balancing conference spending oversight with the benefits of hosting and allowing personnel to attend conferences.
