Select Local Merchants
The Salt RoomRead MoreMartisa and Stan had a problem with sinus pressure and congestion. When they discovered how much salt therapy helped that, they started dropping by regularly. They're joined by clients seeking treatment for respiratory and skin conditions that range from asthma to ear infections. While at The Salt Room, visitors lounge in a tranquil chamber whose walls, like Liberace's favorite kitchen apron, are entirely covered with sparkling salt crystals. To multiply the therapeutic effects, state-of-the-art halogenerators emit a breathable saline dust made from pharmaceutical-grade salt and fresh, filtered air. As guests inhale deeply, NASA-inspired, zero-gravity recliners lift their feet slightly above heart level, reducing the strain on their spines as they nap or read. A children's room entertains little ones with art and toys as they absorb the beneficial effects, and a third chamber hosts yoga classes. Deep-tissue and Thai massages enable clients to take in the rooms' healing properties as the tension in their backs ebbs away. Outside of its therapy rooms, The Salt Room continues to guide guests on their path to wellness with acupuncture sessions and skincare treatments. These rely on exfoliation, extractions, and vitamin-C peels to cleanse skin without relying on licks from salt-hungry deer.1804 North Mills AvenueOrlando, FL US

Elase Medical SpasRead MoreLed by board-certified plastic surgeon Jorge Gonzalez, MD, Elase Medical Spas' team rejuvenates clients with medical-grade laser procedures, skin treatments, and cosmetic injectables. As an academy for laser technicians, Elase unleashes an arsenal of advanced laser equipment upon a host of epidermal conditions. Sagging visages spring back to a more youthful state after laser skin tightening with a Candela ND:YAG laser, which helps rebuild the collagen and elastin scaffolding that keeps skin supple and plump, and supports the body's crew of construction guys. Laser hair removal eradicates unwanted strands, VelaShape helps firm up physiques with radio-frequency energy, and vein therapy reduces the appearance of veins on the face and legs. Elase also offers treatments that tackle problem areas without a light show, such as cosmetic injectables—including Botox, Radiesse, and Restylane—which relax or plump up wrinkled areas. Alternatively, medical facials swathe skin in clinical-grade salves selected according to each skin's type and astrological sign.4680 Millenia Plaza WayOrlando, FL US
Planet Beach Contempo Spa OrlandoRead MoreA wildly successful alternative to traditional day spas—its more than 300 locations blanket 36 states and half a dozen countries—Planet Beach Automated Spa is a futuristic relaxation station where state-of-the-art machines administer all the spa and tanning services. These friendly automatons sometimes replace familiar treatments, as in the Red Light facial, a light-based service that delivers blemish-busting results similar to those of a conventional facial but can rejuvenate and reduce fine lines. But other equipment maps out new spa territory entirely: the Hydro-Derma Fusion chamber moisturizes the whole body with nutrient-rich steam in order to offset the effects of a dry climate or a rear-end collision with a salt truck. Other machines detoxify the body, spray tan skin, massage muscles, and burn calories. Planet Beach operates on a membership system where members purchase packages or pay flat monthly rates. As members spend more time at the spa, they get to know the helpful assistants who are always on hand to demonstrate how to use the equipment without activating its ability to cry.4859 New Broad St.Orlando, FL US
Shala Salon & SpaRead MoreGrowing up as a child in Iran, it wasn't unusual for Happy Farshid to see Turkish baths known as hammams. But when he came to America, they, like people who actually liked soccer, became significantly harder to find, according to the Orlando Sentinel. So Farshid decided to open one at his own spa, Shala Salon & Day Spa. Shala's traditional Turkish bath surrounds guests with blue mosaic tiles imported from Italy, Moorish arches, and a domed ceiling. Guests take in their opulent surroundings while basking in the hammam's relatively gentle steam and lying down on a heated tile slab in the center of the room, where they typically receive a thorough massage and an exfoliating body treatment. These immersive escapes are only one of the many options available to Shala's patrons. Stylists are also on-hand to design flattering new haircuts and weave honey-colored highlights into tresses. And aestheticians perform everything from waxing and basic facials using Éminence Organic Skin Care products to skin-rejuvenating photofacials and cellulite-reducing Endermologie procedures.7722 W Sand Lake RdOrlando, FL US

TV Show
Top Chef Duels
Top Chef Duels season finale recap: 'Finale'
Watching any competitive reality food show is a strange exercise when you think about it. Taste is supposed to be a subjective thing; who's to say what the "best" dish is on any given night? Sure, the judges' palates are refined and trained, but one person's sensitivity to salt, proclivity for pickling, or secretly preferred protein could be the difference between victory and defeat.
Top Chef Duels recap: 'Kevin Gillespie vs. Art Smith'
The American South has a culinary history all its own. Temperate climates have bred a bounty of distinctive local ingredients from collard greens to crawfish, and the blending—or Creolization, if you will—of cultures has cultivated a cuisine that is uniquely "American" in its multiplicity. Dishes are generational, cuisine is comfortable, and food is a way to look back home in the South, where the past always informs the present. But this week on Top Chef duels, generations do battle as the historic traditions of the Southern old guard draw knives against the new.
Top Chef Duels recap: 'Stephanie Izard vs. Kristen Kish'
If it were up to Stephanie Izard, the first female winner of Top Chef, she says, she'd stop talking about the fact that she's a woman and focus instead on her food: "Why don't we just talk about me being a chef?" she asks during this week's duel.
While I'm sure she's deservedly sick of hearing about her gender, the fact is that she is not "just" a chef; she is a female chef. And, of course, in a business that has traditionally had problems with women in the kitchen, there's nothing wrong with celebrating that.
Top Chef Duels recap: 'Nyesha Arrington vs. Jennifer Carroll'
Swagger. Noun. "A way of behaving that shows confidence."
During each Top Chef season, there is a customary sizing-up in the early episodes. "You worked where? For whom?" chefs ask. Over its 11 seasons, the brand has grown, attracting higher-caliber chefs looking for a big break and the cave-aged cash of celebrity chefdom. By the time they button their chef coats for the first time, some chefs boast Beard Award nominations. Others show stars courtesy of Michelin.
And some chefs just have swag.
Top Chef Duels recap: 'Tiffani Faison vs. Dale Talde'
Being a jerk is a valuable skill on reality television. From Juan Pablo to Puck, jackassery has taken plenty of forms since people "stopped being polite" decades ago and produced high-water marks of a now-flooded genre. Everyone knows that evil has some serious currency when networks want compelling TV—you get more camera time when you're being an ass.
Top Chef Duels recap: 'David Burke vs. Takashi Yagihashi'
For a "reality" show, there isn't any real dramatic hook this week on Top Chef Duels. Neither contestant has harmed the other in any grievous way. Neither is sniping at the other from the closed confines of the stew room. There's no beef—Kobe, wagyu, or otherwise. That's because there doesn't need to be.
Top Chef Duels recap: 'CJ Jacobsen vs. Stefan Richter'
CJ Jacobson occupies a strange space in the history of Top Chef. He's always been a solid-if-unspectacular cook: he finished sixth during the show's third season as he was undone by an infamous broccolini side that ranks among the show's worst dishes. At 6'10", Big Ceej is certified giant, but he maintains an everyman's insecurity that endears him to viewers, even if his food never really endeared him to the judges in any significant way.
Top Chef Duels recap: 'Mike Isabella vs. Antonia Lofaso'
There's an old saying in sports—a tie is like kissing your sibling. There was always going to be a winner on this week's episode of Top Chef Duels, but with the series reuniting its resident kissing cousins, Mike Isabella and Antonia Lofaso, in an Italian family style duellare, there was also going to be some familial baci before the end credits rolled.
Top Chef Duels recap: 'Shirley Chung vs. Brooke Williamson'
To date, 181 chefs have drawn their knives, buttoned their chef jackets, and vied for the title of Top Chef. Only 11 have won.
Top Chef Duels series premiere recap: 'Richard Blais vs. Marcel Vigneron'
Over the course of 11 seasons, countless spin-offs, and an empire that has produced a series of cookbooks and an online culinary school, Top Chef has outlined a set of culinary cardinal rules: Don't volunteer to be executive chef during Restaurant Wars. Don't overcook the risotto, undercook the bacon you're wrapping your scallops in, or put anything inedible on the plate. Don't touch another chef's mise en place or, for that matter, another chef. And be careful with dessert.

Safety is not guaranteed for the fourth Jurassic Park, coming from director Colin Trevorrow. But the filmmaker wants fans of the dinosaur franchise to know that he's treating his installment in the franchise with the utmost care and respect.
"We are very aware of how much a certain generation especially cares about this movie and we talk about it all the time and really the conversation is: It's not about us, it's not about our careers, it's how do we make something that can stand with the first one," Trevorrow said in an interview with Schmoes Know.
To that end, he has a very valuable tool at his disposal: original Jurassic Park filmmaker Steven Spielberg, who is very much on board with helping the fourth film move along at the right pace.
"It's incredible to have Steven, who's done this for decades and has such an incredible filmic knowledge and just understands the language of the story in a way that for us is very refreshing," Trevorrow says. "It's not like getting notes from a studio executive, it's really just trying to crack this and make it the best it can be."
The director wouldn't speak to Jurassic Park 4 plot rumors, but made it clear that "we definitely want to honor what came before us."

Ah, the great push cart debate. Well, it's not really a debate at all, but PGA Tour players have turned it into one on Twitter … kind of.Related Link: Pulling a Cart Can Be Tough, So This Robotic Cart Follows YouPlayers during the 2014 NCAA golf championships have been using push carts during their rounds, most notably the Stanford Cardinal team. Players have their own reasons for using a push cart, be it an injury or attempting to increase stamina, but the reason behind it doesn't seem to affect the opinions of some.Gotta love how the NCAA champion uses a push cart pic.twitter.com/KWYDXVMhR1— Brian Wallace (@briswall) May 27, 2014 Stanford's Cameron Wilson used a push cart, likely due to a previous back injury, during the championship, and won the individual title in a playoff over Georgia Tech's Ollie Schniederjans. Coincidence? We may never know. While it may not be much of a two-sided argument – because most pros are against using them in tournament play – it does make for an interesting conversation:It's the original fitness fanatics vs the push cart this afternoon!! #GoPokes— edward loar (@BigEinBigD) May 27, 2014No dog in the fight, but you can't win NCAA with a pull cart. C'mon man— Kevin Kisner (@K_Kisner) May 27, 2014Agreed 100 %RT @TDESPN: @bovanpelt Push carts are a BAD look for these kids. C'Mon Man, how can a college kid not be carrying his bag?— Bo Van Pelt (@bovanpelt) May 27, 2014Seeing that dob kits and long putters weren't allowed on trips because they didn't fit in approved luggage – no push carts in OSU future— Bo Van Pelt (@bovanpelt) May 27, 2014@BigEinBigD @OSUtjaka OSU golf got made fun of when they brought out bags with stands. Push cart probably is smart but I just couldn't do it— Bo Van Pelt (@bovanpelt) May 27, 20142 things not right as I'm watching the NCAA golf 1 that its televised so extensively and http://t.co/us7LstJj8D events get none 2 pull carts— Kris Blanks (@krisblanks) May 26, 2014Can only imagine what Coach would of said if we wanted to use a push cart!! @bovanpelt @OSUtjaka— edward loar (@BigEinBigD) May 26, 2014@BigEinBigD I can't remember ONE guy EVER using a pull cart in college. That's one step away from retirement, not the PGA tour. #soft— Arron Oberholser (@ArronOberholser) May 26, 2014 If these pros have a problem with using a push cart, I'd hate to hear what they'd have to say about this robotic cart that follows you around the course … or maybe I'd love to hear it.The NCAA Championships continue through Thursday, with LSU and Alabama squaring off in one semifinal match, and Stanford and Oklahoma State in the other.Related Link: Which Colleges Produce the Best PGA Tour Pros?Other Hot Links: - Alabama Leads Top Seeds Into NCAA Championships- Report: Golfers Leaving Game at Alarming Rate- Phil Mickelson Sees Multiple Olympics, U.S. Open Wins in Future- Video: Lucy Li Was Better Than You When She Was 8- Trick Shot Tuesday: Defying Physics- The Fringe: Dufner Comes Up Short, Scott Just Too Good Looking

KU class angers 'design' advocates
Oh crap, it died, and Dr. Mirecki is leaving. It was a truly great idea. Dr. Mirecki should come back to Harvard where great ideas are tolerated.

KU class angers 'design' advocates
This is perfect. All religion is mythology, which is precisely why ID does not belong in the science classroom.
Of course 'Evolution' is a theory - but it is not 'merely' a theory. A theory is a hypothesis that has been repeatedly supported by factual evidence. All science that is taught is theory. The theories that comprise the body of science provide a logic-based roadmap that enables talented minds not only to expand our knowledge of the physical and bilogogical universe, but to make valuable discoveries and inventions, and to solve myriad problems that plague humanity and the world. The once-hypothesis, and now-theory, that vascular neogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels) is essential to the growth and invasive potential of a cancerous tumors, has led to the development of antiangiogenic cancer therapies that are revolutionizing the treatment of cancer to a degree unimaginable just a few years ago. This is just one tiny example of the power of a single scientific theory.
'Intelligent design' is not a theory, and its only byproduct to date is a wave of pseudoscientific idiocy that threatens to undermine the education of potentially brilliant young minds. At best it is a hypothesis, one that has been supported by exactly zero scientific evidence - you know: experiments, data; science. We do not teach hypotheses in science classrooms. We teach the concept of a hypothesis, and the scientific process whereby hypotheses may or may not be elevated to the important and noteworthy status of theory.
Mythology is where intelligent design belongs, along with studies of Zeus, Apollo, Vishnu, Brahma et al.. KU's move to incorporate intelligent design into a religious mythology course is appropriate, if not brilliant strategy.

Gun Control: We really don't want to say it, but we have to because it's true: The Democrats aren't letting a tragedy go to waste — they are pushing a firearms ban on top of the victims of the Newtown shooting.
Led by the once pistol-packing Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, the Democrats have put forth legislation that would outlaw more than 150 types of weapons, from rifles to pistols to shotguns.
They are calling it the "Assault Weapons Ban of 2013."
But it's more like the "Second Amendment Violation of the Century."
Included in the exhaustive list are all types of AR-15s. As almost everyone breathing now knows, it was the AR-15 which was used in the recent Newtown, Conn., and Aurora, Colo., shootings.
But as almost no one knows, it is nothing more than a scary-looking (to the elitists) semi-automatic hunting rifle that also has a record for successfully being used for personal and family protection.
Also banned are a number of machine pistols and shotguns, among them the Streetsweeper and Striker 12, which, again, have frightening appearances yet chamber the same 12-gauge shells that are used to hunt birds.
The last time Congress rushed a major bill through, America ended up saddled with the nightmare of ObamaCare. Now we have another hastily forged, ill-considered piece of legislation that won't do what its authors promise, which, according to Feinstein, is saving "thousands and thousands of lives."
Did she not read our editorial earlier this month in which we point out that only 323 Americans were killed by rifles in 2011? That the number of rifle homicides is falling? That knives, blunt instruments and the human body itself were responsible for more than nine times as many homicides as rifles in 2011?
Of course not.
Instead, Feinstein, who admitted in 1995 that she "carried a concealed weapon" and was determined that "if somebody was going to try and take me out, I was going to take them with me," is playing to public emotions.
She and her Democratic allies are saying that it's time we did something about useless firearm deaths in America and, by gum, we're doing ... something.
The legislation and its "elaborately staged" news conference — the Washington Post's words, not ours — is, if we might employ a term used by many others, theater. It is a stunt, a cousin of communist show trials and an insult to Americans' intelligence and liberty.
It is a stomach-turning spectacle and a prelude to a deeper crackdown on gun owners. Citizens need to rise up and say, "Not in America. Not now. Not ever."

You book an exotic trip. You buy a new safari jacket. And you pick up a new camera with visions of National Geographic cover shots running through your head. But after looking at your pictures you wonder if your holiday was really that dull.
For many, buying and using a new camera on a trip can be very disappointing. The ads, the salesperson and the shiny new box always hold such promise and yet the results can often be mediocre.
Take heart, there are a few things you can do to get the most from your camera equipment whether it is the cheapest compact camera to the most expensive SLR.
The first trick for getting the most out of your equipment is to bring it with you. The best equipment in the world is no good if it is sitting in your hotel room. Check out www.jill-e.com for funky camera bags for men and women. Funksion.ca makes a cool and small 'cam clutch'. If you want something more stately, the benchmark remains the British company Billingham at www.billingham.co.uk. There is no rule that you need an official 'camera bag'. Look for a nice leather pouch or bag from a local market - a small silk scarf can provide the padding if necessary.
The next time a friend hands you their camera to take their picture at a party or at the pool, look at the lens and check out the smudges on the lens. It will be there, guaranteed. Keep a microfibre cloth handy (in a small zip-lock) and clean the lens often, every time you bring it out you should check it. If you don't have a special cloth, the inside of a clean t-shirt can work in a pinch. Be careful there is no sand or grit on the surface first or else you will scratch the lens.
A mini-tripod can work wonders. These are cheap and can be found almost anywhere for under $20. With one of these you can avoid camera shake that is particularly important when shooting at night or inside. It will also allow you to be in the photo. Finally, it will force you to really take your time as you frame your shot and you are more likely to avoid those little distracting elements in your picture like a telephone pole growing out of someone's head.
Learn about the equipment you own. Very few people take the time to read the dreary and technical owners manual that comes with the camera. The features that were so interesting in the camera shop and were used to justify the high price tag are instantly forgotten the moment the purchase is made. Take the time to find out how to use the timer and turn the flash on and off. What does that green flashing light mean anyway? Play with the camera a bit and try all the knobs and buttons until you are comfortable with them. If you screw something up, pull out the batteries or press the reset button. You won't lose your photos but you will change the controls back to where they were when you bought it.
Using the flash on your camera can be a very frustrating exercise. For most compact cameras, realize that it takes a little time for the flash to charge, 10 seconds or more between shots is not unusual. The little flash units on those cameras have a very short range as well. 2 to 4 metres is usually the limit for them, after that, things get dark. Too close is also a problem for a flash. Check the manual, it will give you both a maximum and minimum distance for the flash. Too close equals too bright and washed out.
Use the zoom on the lens on a regular basis. They come with the camera so that you can fill the frame easily. A wide angle on your camera gets more into your picture of course but it can exaggerate and distort the image as well making the foreground bigger than it is and making the background smaller. This can add a nice three-dimensional feel to a landscape but can also make a person's nose look like an overgrown potato. Zooming in or using a telephoto lens will be much more flattering to a face and give a more two-dimensional, painterly feel to your picture. It will also compress a scene and can include two objects like a sign and a building with no dead space in between.
From the simplest to the most complicated camera, almost all models now come with various 'scene modes.' These scene modes that usually have cute little international symbols like a flower or a mountain to give you an idea of when to use them. When used, these controls will alter the settings in the camera to give you better results for different conditions.
Use these scene modes whenever possible. One example is the sports mode — usually a running figure. When selected, the camera will automatically engage the vibration reduction if it has it, as well as selecting a large aperture so that the athlete stands out from the background by being the only thing in focus. Most importantly, it will select a high shutter speed that will stop the action. Too slow a shutter speed and the moving figure will be blurry. This is also a useful control for moving boats, cars, horses - anything moving quickly. Try it with a telephoto lens for a portrait and you will love the results.
There is no need to take a course on photography to take a few holiday snaps but an hour getting a few practical pointers can really help out. There are myriad books on the topic in your local bookstore and library of course. Don't look just for the technical manuals, look also for a discussion of the aesthetics of photography. A great classic is from famed Canadian photographer Freeman Patterson called 'Photography and the Art of Seeing' and can start teaching you to see pictures all around you.
The internet of course is filled with instruction and practical advice. You may be able to find a chat group devoted to your exact camera. The manufacturer at least will have a troubleshooting section of their site. Consider also photography.nationalgeographic.com for inspiration as well as some good practical advice.
And of course from a purely mercenary standpoint, visit www.thestar.com/comment/columnists/542443

A South Dakota House committee has advanced a bill that would make concealed weapons permits valid for five years, up from the current four years.
The Local Government Committee voted unanimously to send the measure to the full House.
The measure's main sponsor, Sen. Larry Rhoden of Union Center, says he had hoped to use the bill to make other changes in South Dakota's gun laws. But he says those additional changes cannot be made this year because additional study is needed.
Rhoden says he eventually wants to change the law so that once people get concealed weapons permits, they would not undergo separate background checks every time they buy a gun. That would require issuing concealed weapons permits based on the same database used to approve gun sales.

Room Service: Les Cinq Djellabas, Marrakech
Bright ideas near the Red City
Saturday 08 March 2014
Les Cinq Djellabas is a boutique hotel of 10 "bungalows" near Marrakech. The term used to describe this luxurious accommodation seems wrong, though; there may be neatly presented lawns and flower beds, but just beyond the perimeter are palm trees and camels, not gnomes and poodles. On the horizon lie the Atlas Mountains, rather than the plains of Argos.
The hotel has a fusion of influences ranging from France to the Philippines, but the dominant theme is Saharan, as the use of adobe walls and thatched roofs suggests. These materials are locally sourced, which is an environmental boon in an area which has not been renowned for its concerns about ecological matters as tourism has increased on an industrial scale.
Les Cinq Djellabas was created by Frederic Velissariou. He is the owner of Le Foundouk restaurant in central Marrakech, which has become a byword in the city for exquisite cuisine served in a traditional Medina setting. But, while Le Foundouk is brooding and labyrinthine, the French entrepreneur and his designer, Thierry Isbnardon, wanted to create in the hotel something different and, well, very light and bright – like the desert itself.
That's not just as a result of the chandeliers illuminating the dark-wood, galleon-like ceilings or the profusion of bulbs hanging in the Kasbah-style reception and clustered around the mirror in your bathroom. The place feels airy, too – almost as if a weight has been lifted off your shoulders. It's far from the teeming Djemaa el-Fnaa and the exotica of the Medina.
A tadelakt (waterproof lime plaster) wall separates the bathroom where there is a monsoon shower with a stone bench Five acres of lawns, groves of olive trees and beds of banana plants are clustered around the huts and a charming green-stone pool with luxurious double loungers. The hotel is equipped with a Foundouk satellite restaurant showcasing the menus of chef Amin – a wide selection of tagines, including the excellent Berber version with lamb shank and a very tasty calamari version that is cooked on the spot.
There are delightful cocktails such as the Morroquito, made from a date spirit called mahia and wine list that provides only Moroccan vintages – the local plonk is decent if a little dry. With a bar being constructed to service the pool – which is only filled once a year in line with the hotel's policy to use water sensibly – and a hamman spa being added during the coming year, those shoulders will feel a lot less tense.
The development is 25 minutes' drive from the centre of the "Red City" and a little more from the airport. It is in "la nouvelle Palmeraie" – the old version of this vast, scrubby palm grove has already been transformed by exclusive hotel complexes and golf courses carved out of the arid terrain. But the new neighbourhood has not yet caved in to sheer artifice and the dirt approach road, past tumbledown shacks and hole-in-the-wall shops retains a sense of authenticity.
Until the hotel opens its hammam, you can enjoy the luxurious pampering of the Heritage Spa in the Medina, tucked down a narrow sidestreet but twisting away inside, like a palace of dreams (heritagespamarrakech.com).
There are camel and quad bike rides into the desert from just outside the gates, and forays are organised into the mountains to visit the extraordinary souk at Asni and the lofty Kasbah du Toubkal at the foot of Jebel Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa, where a hearty lunch awaits after a short but steep hike.
The rooms are circular huts with conical thatched roofs that feature a large fan hanging from the cross beam. The four-poster beds are huge and very comfortable. There is an open fireplace, satellite TV and sofa, and the rooms are tastefully decorated with North African artefacts and photographs of Saharan scenes. A tadelakt (waterproof lime plaster) wall separates the bathroom where there is a monsoon shower with a stone bench; luxury suites include claw-foot baths.
The staff are very welcoming and will serve you breakfast in your room or even bring a table to your door so that you can eat outside. Better still, it is served until 3pm if you fancy a long lie-in. Eggs and pancakes are available in addition to the pastries, cakes, fruit and yoghurt.
An open fire blazes away in the restaurant and next to it there's a tartan armchair in which to doze off. You could almost be at the 19th hole of a golf club. Except that, fortunately, there isn't a crazy golf course outside perched precariously in the middle of the desert.

Lawyers & Law Firms
Good I hope football is locked out for 2 seasons. Nothing but a bunch of over paid losers. Stoping giving these idiots all of our money. I love to watch football ands other sports but it's killing the economy.
The players' secret weapon: NFL lead attorney David Boies. Boies has to be the most overrated (and overpaid) trial attorney still practicing. Boies has one skill, putting on a great acting job, plenty of gravitas in his performance. But for Boies, it is all about collecting the fee. In that regard, he is no different than Kenneth Feinberg, who is another phony with a habit of making big promises and coming up short. For total sleaziness, though, Feinberg easily outdistances Boies [refer to Feinberg's promises to expedite the handling of claims against BP at numerous town hall meetings, after which Feinberg took a long nap].
Have none of these high priced lawyers learned how to read a judge? She took it under advisement for 2 weeks to give them a chance to settel it. If they don't at least meet, she is not going to be happy with both sides.
Good post, Police Car. I remember Boies being ineffective in Gore vs Bush. Personally, I think they should take the 1% they're fighting over and give it to charity ($94,000,000 is still a lot of money).
It's good that this Blog focuses on the law and lawyers, not just the dispute
As with most things the guy making the league min is the one the gets hosed here.
Almost all important pieces of labor law comes from the 1930's and 1940's, so of course Bois is citing law from that period. Part of the reason that most of those laws still stand is because they are pretty clear and plain. Which piece of that puzzle are you referring to in particular? Norris-LaGuardia? NLRA? Taft?
This whole thing is Millionaires vs Billionaires, and it is ludicrous! "Hey, I have so much money that I have run out of things to spend it on but I want more!" "Oh yeah, well I have enough money to buy a small island but I want more!" Really!? Shame on you. You are hurting the "little people" in your organizations by taking away their jobs, NOT TO MENTION people in related positions/fields whose jobs and income are affected by whether or not you have games. Also, let's think about Basketball and Hockey owners for a second. Some of them are LUCKY to break even or "only" lose several million a year, but they do it for the love of the game!
I know it is a business guys, but everyone here is making money when you let the season progress, so do what it takes to make that happen, Owners be happy that you have billions of dollars that can be split up between different employees, players shut up, you make plenty FOR PLAYING A GAME FOR A LIVING, and LET'S PLAY SOME FOOTBALL!! GO COWBOYS!!!
Also, good post eplawyer. I don't even work in the field, and I caught onto that!
The judge told the players that the decertification is in bad faith and then told Boies to pound sand if he didn't pound the owners into putting an offer out there for the players to reject if the "union"'s counsel gets too full of himself and tries to outsmart the court. If the two sides don't come back with a deal, if we were the court, we'd say we'd withhold our ruling until right before training camp, say July 31 . . .
