Marriage and Divorce Rates
Remember when your spouse and you first decided that you wanted to make your commitment to each other official? You were young and in love! Your whole life was ahead of you and you were walking on air. Maybe your parents had a successful marriage or maybe they didn't and you were convinced that you could learn from their mistakes and make a better go of it. Either way, love could overcome all obstacles, right? As you plotted out your future in your mind, the pros far outweighed the cons. You were fully committed and you believed that your soon to be partner in life was as well.
Unfortunately, despite all of the elements that bring a couple together and lead to the decision that they should be together, sometimes it is just not to be. A popular quote that seems to apply to struggling marriages is; "Women often marry men thinking that they can change the things they don't like about them while men marry women thinking that they will always remain the same". Marriage and divorce rates continue to fluctuate as years go by,this being especially true when significant events occur that alter lifestyles. If we are to examine how events in our country's history have influenced marriage and divorce; then we can see when many begin and others end.
In the past,we have seen that marriage rates are often directly linked to events, the economy, traditional values and other external factors. For example; marriages have been known to skyrocket during and immediately after a war. This is not a coincidence. The reasoning behind this stems from couples either not wanting to be apart again after a forced separation caused by the war or their fear that they might not ever see each other again combined with a desire to show a commitment to one another. Pre-deployment marriage proposals are frequently driven by hope and a need for comfort. During both World Wars I and II it was noted that there was an increase in marriages before and after the conflicts. The rates drop off a bit in the years following, but marriage is driven by other factors during times of peace. The years following WWII between 1946-1964 were full of hope, promise, prosperity and a greater appreciation of life and its simple pleasures such as family relationships by those who had lived through the fear and horrors of the war. In recent years, there has been a shift away from traditional values such as marriage but the institution is far from dead. If you disagree, just consider how many successful television programs are built around purchasing wedding dresses and preparation for the ceremony!
Of course, divorce is nowhere near inevitable. There are many extremely successful marriages that lead to strong partnerships and lifelong happiness. Many of these come after a first foray into the institution ends in divorce and much more thought and consideration is put into the next relationship. Divorce is an unfortunate occurrence that can be caused by a multitude of factors. Mistakes are made or one person is more dedicated to making it successful than the other. Either way, don't be discouraged and don't lay down and forfeit your finances, custodial rights or the potential for success in your next relationship because you've had a bad experience and are feeling despair or discouragement. Divorce postpones the idea of spending your life with someone, but should not eliminate it. The previously mentioned statistics that highlight marriages in the US also illustrate a corresponding increase in divorces that follow but the numbers are still considerably lower for divorces than they are for marital unions Just remember that a happy, healthy and successful relationship can be yours in the future but it is imperative that you take great care in the dissolution of unsuccessful relationships. Seeking guidance and help from those who love and care about you as well as experts and professionals who can use their experience to guide you through a tough situation can set you on a course to find true happiness in the future.
Divorce and IVF
It is common for long-time couples to discuss future plans such as marriage, home owning, and ultimately raising a family. These plans come with a lot of "what-ifs"— and the unknown can make taking big steps challenging. In particular, having children is one of the most significant decisions a couple can make. But what happens when infertility is an issue?
Fortunately, science has discovered numerous alternatives in fertility technology. One of these options is In Vitro Fertilization (IVF): the process of combining an egg and sperm in a lab and then transferring the embryo to the uterus. In some cases the embryo is frozen and stored for future implantation. When choosing to undergo IVF, divorce is usually the last thing on the couple's mind.
Frozen embryos, while not common in divorce cases, can create significant and unique challenges to reaching a divorce agreement. A common example where this instance would present itself is with the diagnosis of cancer and the treatment may potentially cause infertility. In this scenario, the couple would undergo IVF and store the embryo until carrying a pregnancy is safe. Unfortunately for some couples, the relationship ends and both parties disagree on what should be done with the stored embryos.
In the recent cases of Lee v. Findley and Szafranski v. Dunston, both females were diagnosed with cancer and the respective couples went through IVF to ensure they would be able to have biological children post-treatment. Both relationships ended and now the fates of the embryos are at the center of an ongoing debate.
In the California case, Lee v. Findley, the two are embroiled in a divorce. The ex-husband is requesting that the embryos be destroyed. The ex-wife and her attorneys have argued, "that destroying the embryos would destroy an infertile woman's ability to realize the fundamental and constitutionally protected bond of a parent and a child." The ex-husband fears that if she was to go through with the in vitro that he would be responsible for financial support. She has argued that she would not involve him in the child's life.
When initially starting the process of IVF the couple signed documents presented by the "UCSF that included provisions for destroying the embryos under various circumstances, including divorce, and those agreements are a binding contract." The husband testified to this, assuming the decision would be ruled by this contract. However, the exceptional circumstances of this case requires evaluation and a decision from the courts.
While the case continues, the UCSF is arguing that one cannot simply change their mind after signing the documents that clearly state the destruction of the embryos in accordance to certain circumstances. Divorce turns out to be one of those circumstances. However, Lee did go through IVF with the purpose of preserving the embryos knowing the result of her infertility due to cancer.
The recent advancements in IVF have made treatment more affordable and accessible to people facing challenges with fertility. Because IVF has become a first choice for many couples, it is likely that these issues will become more common in divorce proceedings. The court's decisions in both Lee v. Findley and Szafranski v. Dunston may set a precedent regarding frozen embryos as part of a divorce—and lay the foundation for how these cases are handled in the future.
Should I Move Out?
Coming to terms with the idea that you and your spouse are wanting, and/or needing, to end your marriage is never easy. When property and children are involved it makes the split more complicated and more stressful. For many men, moving out as soon as possible is an attempt to minimize the stress and potential conflict that comes with divorce. Unfortunately, this is one of the most common mistakes men make when faced with the dissolution of their marriage. Leaving the marital home without evaluating the consequences, or having a strategy in place, can create a significant disadvantage throughout the rest of the divorce process.
In no way should a man feel obligated to leave property if his name is on the title. The division of the marital home is often a significant piece of a divorce case and moving out too soon can create additional obstacles. These obstacles include: establishing a financial precedent that may be unsustainable, eliminating access to important documents, and minimizing parenting time.
Being the first to move out can establish a "new normal" that can be difficult to overcome and significantly impact your relationship with your kids. It is imperative that you remain active and involved in the day-to-day details of their lives throughout the divorce. This active involvement is not only important for helping the kids adjust to the divorce, but will be a factor in any custody issues that may arise. Moving out without a parenting plan in place can limit your ability to spend time with your kids and can impact the court's decisions regarding custody and support.
An often overlooked, but vitally important piece of divorce is the paperwork. Financial information like bank statements, credit card statements, and retirement accounts will all need to be submitted to the courts. Additionally, important documents like wills and insurance policies can be required for your divorce. Moving out of the home without obtaining these documents can add significant cost and time to the divorce process.
When it comes to divorce, moving out too soon can set a financially unsustainable precedent. The courts may assume that because two households have been created and supported, that the ongoing support of two households is reasonable. What often starts as a temporary solution (sleeping on a friends couch, or moving in with parents/family members) becomes the status quo.
Committing to moving out of the marital home, before you have evaluated the repercussions and created a strategy, can be detrimental to protecting your rights and assets. The tense atmosphere in the home can be overwhelming, but it is in your best interest to understand all the variables before deciding on a course of action. Attempt to make arrangements to stay in the home until you have spoken with an attorney and mapped out a plan for your divorce.
Is Facebook Ending Marriages?
Social media as it relates to divorce has recently been garnering a fair amount of attention. A recent study, funded by a UK law firm, has sparked the conversation by inquiring what role social media can play in the demise of a marriage.
Although the study was conducted in the UK, the findings can be extrapolated to apply to couples in the U.S. Some the key findings of the report include:
- One in seven said they had contemplated divorce because of their other halves activities on Facebook, Skype, Snapchat, Twitter or What'sApp.
- Nearly a quarter of the 2,000 married Brits asked, said they had at least one argument a week with their partner because of social media use and 17 percent said they rowed every day because of it.
- The most common reasons for checking their partner's social media accounts were finding out who their partner was talking to, keeping tabs on them, checking who they were out with, and finding out if they were telling the truth about their social life.
Our managing attorney, Zephyr Hill, was recently asked by HuffPost live to weigh in on the role social media plays in a divorce case. You can watch the segment in the clip below.
Social media is a powerful tool for building and maintaining relationships; but with great power comes great responsibility. For all the benefits these platforms provide, there is an equal opportunity for intended (and unintended) pitfalls.

3 Things Divorcing Dads Should Do Every Day
The upheaval and change that comes with divorce can make finding your bearings difficult. Changes in schedules, living situations, and finances often create uncertainty and stress as you try to navigate through the dissolution of a marriage. Doing the following three things everyday can help create structure and consistency for both you and your child(ren) during the divorce.
Spend quality time with your child(ren)
Remaining an engaged and involved parent is critical during a divorce. Kids want to hang out with their dad and setting aside time everyday to spend time with your kids can have far reaching benefits.
Actively finding ways to engage with your kids on a daily basis can provide emotional reassurance. Setting aside time for your child(ren) everyday will allow to you continue to play a principal (and indispensable) role.
Daily quality time with your kids has the secondary benefit of exhibiting to the court the importance of your role as a father. This can have substantial impact on how parenting time is allocated in the divorce. When evaluating a proposed parenting plan, the courts seek to create the least amount of disruption to the child(ren). Establishing a status quo of involvement demonstrates the irreplaceable and essential nature of your relationship with your child.
The logistics of spending time with you child(ren) on a daily basis can be challenging for many fathers. Getting creative will work in your favor. Even if circumstances don't allow you to physically be in the same place as your kids, you can find alternate solutions for staying connected.
Some resourceful solutions we have seen include:
•Virtual sports game—scheduling a time to Facetime/Skype/Google Hangout and watch a sports event together
•Phone call bedtime story—Buy two copies of your child's favorite story and call them each night at bedtime to read the book together over the phone.
•Virtual homework help— using whatever technology works best for you, connect with your child each night to provide help with homework.
Find ways to manage stress
Even the most amicable divorce is stressful. Finding constructive outlets for stress is important for maintaining your sanity throughout the process. Unexpected issues will arise and conflict with your ex can be common. Having a plan in place to deal with the detours can help you manage your ability to keep your goals and needs in focus. Getting caught up in the emotional hurricane can hijack your ability to protect what is most important.
Additionally, having a plan for managing stress will allow you to stay focused on adapting to co-parenting. Having the tools to handle difficult conflicts and avoid volatile situations that may have a negative impact on your parenting time is another added benefit.
There isn't a one-size-fits-all solution for managing stress. Every divorce is unique and finding strategies that work for you and your situation is often an exercise in trial and error. A few common strategies we have noticed:
•Working with a therapist to address emotional issues
•Increasing physical activity. Running, playing team sports, or going to the gym can provide a plethora of stress relieving benefits
•Joining a single-dad's support group
Be accessible
Your kids want to know that you are there for them when they need you. Being accessible to your child(ren), their caretakers, and even your ex, demonstrates your commitment to being a permanent fixture in your child(ren)'s life.
Returning emails, texts, and phone calls (unless there are explicit reasons for limiting contact) in a timely manner is a solid first step in successfully co-parenting. Being available for last minute opportunities is also helpful. Things like picking up your child from school if they are sick, or picking them up from daycare (at mom's request) if mom can't make it.
Accessibility is important, but it there is a fine line to walk. You want to be available for your children and be respectful of your ex's parenting time. Without proper communication, well-intentioned acts can be misconstrued as a violation of temporary orders.
Maintaining your relationship with your child(ren) through the divorce might have its challenges, but it is worth it. Divorce and custody issues can be complicated and confusing and getting accurate answers can be difficult. If you have questions about divorce, custody, or any other family law issue, we are here to help. We are happy to answer your questions over the phone at no charge and no obligation.

Divorce Month
The New Year has made its appearance, but while some are focusing on resolutions and ultimately bettering themselves; others are focused on changing their marital status. Spouses begin to have complications in their marriage at all different times of the year; but the holiday season is often a catalyst for change. Family and financial obligations, and the accompanying disagreements, can be the final straw for many couples.
January brings resolutions and decision making. According to Findlaw, (a free consumer-focused legal information site):
"searches for "divorce" and related phrases such as "family law" and "child custody" jumped 50 percent – from just over 10,000 in December 2010 to nearly 16,000 in January 2011, and continued to surge through March. "Divorce" has been the No. 1 searched term on FindLaw.com since January 2010."
Although many people make the decision to divorce in January, it is common for couples to wait until March to file and begin the divorce process. According to the same study cited above, January sees an increase in divorce filings; but that number doesn't peak until March.
If you have found yourself considering filing for divorce in the new year, you are not alone. Divorce is a big decision that should not be taken lightly. It is imperative to understand all your rights and options before you file any documents with the court. If you have questions about your situation or how your circumstances might affect your divorce, please give us a call.
Social Media as Evidence in Family Law Cases
A moment of frustration can easily turn into a legal headache when social media is added to the mix. The combination of social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook and the ability to instantaneously post personal thoughts or frustrations can later cause a huge uproar with those it may personally affect. When it comes to family law, these incidents can unravel a whole other dimension to a case and can be used against the other party.
Security and privacy settings can provide a false sense of safety. Every post made to the internet is recorded and is never completely out of sight or out of mind. Even services, like SnapChat, that are designed to self destruct messages, have proven that they are not infallible. The only way to guarantee your thoughts or comments won't live on in social media infamy is to refrain from posting them at all.
Another common misperception is that the only way to access posts is to have an account on the particular platform (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, etc.). The reality is search engines (such as Google or Yahoo) can uncover accounts and often posts from a variety of social channels. Even though your account may say private, that is not entirely the case. There is often little protection from your followers taking screenshots of your posts and reposting as public content. Additionally, situations can arise where some information that one may have deleted forever has come back to haunt them.
Once again, there is no privacy when it comes to the internet. It is a network primarily used to share and store information. Social media posts are easy to publish, easy to save, but hard to erase. It is advised that no action or response to divorce or family law matters be posted on your social media. This will eradicate any evidence that could be used against you. If you are facing a family law situation, the best course of action is to refrain from sharing any information on social media until your case has concluded.

Divorce Statistics
Several recent news articles have cited correlations between the costs of a wedding (or the cost of the engagement ring) to divorce rates. The theory is that the more expensive the wedding (or ring) the more likely the couple is to divorce.
Here is the cheat sheet on the statistics listed in a recent article from The Wall Street Journal:
- Men who spent between $2,000 and $4,000 on an engagement ring were 1.3 times more likely to divorce than those who spent between $500 and $2,000. In the paper's language, that pricier ring is "significantly associated with an increase in the hazard of divorce in the sample of men."
- Couples who spent $1,000 or less on their wedding were not as likely to get divorced in the samples of both men and women.
- Among women, marriages that began with weddings that cost $20,000 or more were 1.6 times more likely to end in divorce. (Messrs. Mialon and Francis suggested expensive weddings could lead to stress from possible debt, which has been found as one reason behind divorce.)
- What characteristics were common to longer marriages? Relatively high wedding attendance, going on a honeymoon, having relatively high household income, regularly attending religious services and having a child together.
These recent articles and their correlations sparked a few conversations around the office and resulted in researching a variety of divorce statistics. We compiled these statistics into the infographic below.

Codebreaker - Most Recent
New Instagram is, surprise, more Facebooky
It's no surprise, really. If Facebook bought a dog, the dog would become more Facebooky too. Start encouraging other dogs to share more about themselves, post ads in the poops it leaves in the yard. That kind of thing.
The latest update on the Instagram photo sharing app, famously acquired by Facebook for a billion dollars earlier this year, features a lot more geolocation capabilities, aimed at getting people to share share share.
From GigaOm:
In the new version you can select photos you wish to make public and they get pinned to a location. For instance, if you have ten photos from Helsinki, Finland, they all get clustered together. These clusters are visible as collections on a map. You can see many collections on the map and can tap to zoom in (or out) to get a closer and more contextual view.
GigaOm also proposes that Instagram is positioning itself as an alternative to Twitter for the young people who like the shiny new things. It's also an alternative to Facebook, even though it's owned by Facebook:
This scale of growth – hundreds of photos uploaded per second and a total of more than 4 billion photos – the company is starting to look like a rival to Twitter as a place for social conversations. Today, Twitter is much bigger, but Instagram is growing at a rapid clip. Instagram has become popular with youngsters who are bypassing Facebook and Twitter and instead communicating via photos and comments on Instagram.
Verizon spectrum deal approved by the DOJ
The Department of Justice has signed off on Verizon's purchase of huge piles of broadcast spectrum from various cable companies. The deal was opposed by other wireless operators as well as plenty of people kinda spooked by how enormously powerful Verizon is about to become. As expected, there were strings attached, specifically having to do with the joint marketing agreement between Verizon and the cable operators that was part of the agreement.
From TG Daily:
It also places a time limit - December 2016 - on a proposed deal whereby Verizon will resell cable companies' services to customers in areas where Verizon sells DSL Internet service. It also places time limits on a proposed technology joint ventured.
"By limiting the scope and duration of the commercial agreements among Verizon and the cable companies while at the same time allowing Verizon and T-Mobile to proceed with their spectrum acquisitions, the department has provided the right remedy for competition and consumers," says Joseph Wayland, acting assistant attorney general in charge of the Department of Justice's Antitrust Division.
Next up is approval of the deal from the FCC, which is expected.
So. Everyone's happy, right? NOT AL FRANKEN, the senator from Minnesota, who says the restrictions don't go far enough and that the deal will hurt competition.
"Without meaningful competition for broadband, the cable companies will be able to charge whatever they want—and drive consumers to purchase expensive bundles of services they don't want or need in order to get Internet service. The Department of Justice has addressed some of the worst parts of this transaction, but I don't think it has gone far enough," he said.
Twitter further restricts API
While Twitter is plenty popular among various Kardashia (that's the plural of Kardashian), it's making web developers grumpier and grumpier. The company has probably angered those developers yet more by placing new, tougher restrictions on its application programming interface (API), which is the information that lets people build new products using the guts of Twitter. The Twitter developers blog says the changes, which go into effect next year, will include things like per-hour limits to the API and tighter authentication requirements.
But here's the part making everyone mad:
If your application already has more than 100,000 individual user tokens, you'll be able to maintain and add new users to your application until you reach 200% of your current user token count (as of today) – as long as you comply with our Rules of the Road. Once you reach 200% of your current user token count, you'll be able to maintain your application to serve your users, but you will not be able to add additional users without our permission.
So if your app gets twice as big as it was to start, you aren't allowed to grow it any further.
Twitter's coming to a crossroads here. Its popularity as a platform is extraordinary and that might be at odds with the growth or even interests of the company that is trying to hard control
Tech companies doing better on use of conflict minerals
A new report issued yesterday from the Enough Project says the situation with big tech companies using conflict minerals in Africa is generally improving, although with plenty of room still to go. Those minerals are at the heart of civil strife, especially in the Congo, that has resulted in the millions of people dying as a result of armed conflict or starvation. But again, improving.
Says CNN:
That's thanks in part to the fact that tech companies like Intel, HP, Dell, Microsoft and Apple have made efforts to trace the source of metals used in their devices. An auditing system for smelters, the industrial facilities that process raw metals, also has been put in place. A certification system is in the works that would allow companies to certify some metals from Congo as "conflict free."
Not everyone scored well. Nikon, Sharp, Canon, and HTC scored exceptionally poorly. Worst of all? Nintendo, which the Enough Project says does not seem to have made any effort to avoid these minerals whatsoever.

Windows 8: here come the reviews
And the judgment is.... KINDA MIXED!
The huge new operating system has been fiddled with and the embargo has been lifted. Now, various publications are passing down their verdicts on Microsoft's latest universe.
Microsoft makes an aggressive, forward-thinking and bold statement statement for the future of PCs with Windows 8, and vast security and speed improvements more than justify the $40 upgrade price.
Gizmodo said it was not quite incredible but not bad:
Should You Buy It? Many of you won't have a choice. This is the operating system that will come pre-installed on your PC for the foreseeable future. And that's a good thing! If you're thinking about upgrading, well, that means you actually care about this thing. And if you care about this thing, you should definitely give it a try. Especially for $40 flat and $15 if you bought a PC recently.
Infoworld hates it:
Sometimes engineering achievements are appreciated only by the engineers. From the user's standpoint, Windows 8 is a failure -- an awkward mishmash that pulls the user in two directions at once. Users attracted to the new touch-friendly Metro GUI will dislike the old touch-hostile desktop underneath. By the same token, users who rely on the traditional Windows desktop will dislike having to navigate Metro to find settings and apps they intuitively locate in Windows 7. Microsoft has moved the cheese.
Not everyone is running a big review since this is still technically a preview edition but the consensus is that nothing one would notice will change between now and the 10/25 launch date. Good luck, Brancaccio!
OMG! LPRs make us LOL nervously
LPRs you ask? License plate readers, like the ones found on the two sole roads leading in and out of Tiburon, Calif., that can feed police a list of plate scans at up to 60 per second. Police use the scanners to spot stolen cars or people who might be wanted, but privacy advocates are raising concerns about everybody else. Tiburon has been using LPRs since 2009, and now similar readers can be found all over the country.
In late July 2012, the American Civil Liberties Union and its affiliates sent requests to local police departments and state agencies across 38 states to request information on how LPRs are used.
Law enforcement officials in Tiburon say crime has dropped one-third since the cameras have been up and running. The nation's capital sports the most densely packed area of LPRs, sporting more than one every square mile. A major privacy concern that keeps popping up is data retention. Again from Ars:
"I want to give law enforcement all the tools to catch the bad guys, but I don't want to yield to [a] Big Brother state," Utah State Senator Todd Weiler, a Republican, told Ars. "There has to be a happy medium, but part of the happy medium is showing how long you need to store the data."
So far, lawsuits challenging LPRs are being upheld.
Germans: they love David Hasselhoff and are wary of Facebook
Facebook's use of facial recognition software has always been a bit off putting for a lot of people since it associates faces with names and can display your name without you saying that's okay. Facebook says its software is fully compliant with European Union privacy laws but German Data protection commissioner Johannes Caspar isn't so sure. He says it breaks the rules for Facebook to accumulate a database of images of users' faces without the users' consent.
From the BBC:
The database is used to power its Photo Tag Suggest feature - a function which works out who someone in a picture is based on previously gathered photographs of that person.
Users can then choose to tag their friends, who are then notified that a new picture of them had been uploaded.
The feature, like many on Facebook, operates on an opt-out basis, an approach heavily criticised by Mr Caspar who has demanded that the database is destroyed.
He argued that it was gathered without users' consent and therefore illegal.
The German government has now re-opened an investigation of Facebook's practices. The investigation had been suspended while similar complaints from the Irish government were being investigated.
Flash for Android is dead
Adobe's Flash program is on its way to becoming kind of a computery version of the coelocanth: so sparse in population that while it will exist, many will believe it to have become extinct. As of today, Flash Player is gone from Google's Play store and Flash's parent company, Adobe, says it has halted developing it for Android devices. The decision to pull it was Adobe's and it did so even though it was a well-reviewed bit of software among Google users.
From the BBC:
But Adobe said it was removing the option to install the plug-in because it was likely to exhibit "unpredictable behaviour" when used with the latest version of Android, known as Jelly Bean.
It also suggested that smartphone owners who had upgraded to the latest system should uninstall the Flash Player if it was already on their device.
All signs now point to HTML5 being the standard for animation on web sites, a standard that YouTube is now adopting as well. Apple, famously, has never allowed Flash on its iPhones and iPads saying it was too heavy a product that burdened devices more than it helped them. Adobe says it is confident that Flash still has a big future on PCs. Don't stop believing, there, Steve Perry.
Here's the iPad Mini, probably
Remember when people were surprised by Apple announcements? Like, the company rolls out... a phone! (spit take) What?! Where did that come from?! Now, we see the train coming a mile away. A number of sites, while still citing anonymous sources, say they are confident that leaked images of the iPad Mini are the real thing and that this is what we will be seeing at the Apple launch event on September 12th.
The link there is from 9 to 5 Mac but there is also much the same information from Apple devotee John Gruber who thinks it will resemble the iPad more than a middle point product between the Pad and the Phone. Gizmodo did its own mockup based on what was being widely speculated.

Our life here on earth is a journey of ups and downs. Our spiritual life enables us to rejoice in the good times and sustains us in our struggles. During this retreat, we will examine eight aspects of a dynamic spirituality. Each quality will help us as we progress in our spiritual lives. We will never reach perfection in this life, but God, who is perfection, will always aid us as we grow along the journey.
Our presenter, Fr. Fr. Walter Butor, OMI is a Missionary Oblate of Mary Immaculate. He felt a connection to the spirituality of Native Americans, and has ministered on the White Earth and Sisseton Wahpeton Reservations for eleven years. Much of his ministry has focused on bridging cultural divides, as well as the challenges of unemployment, domestic violence and addictions.

buffer creditsFormally called buffer-to-buffer credit (BBC) spoofing, and also called buffer-to-buffer credits, this is a technology that effectively removes limitations on data throughput for long-distance transmissions in a Fibre Channel storage area network (SAN). Usually Fibre Channel protocols limit the distance between the source and the destination network to within a few kilometers. Using buffer-to-buffer credits makes it possible to use off-site storage hundreds of kilometers away.

Self-Inflicted Wounds
Several recent developments reveal how political and institutional fragmentation in the United States has produced self-inflicted wounds for the U.S. abroad. In all of these instances, America's ability to exercise economic power in the world has been deliberately curtailed through decisions made unilaterally in Washington by American political leaders.

How Women of Color Are Driving Entrepreneurship in the US
Women of color are a principal force behind one of the most important components of America's current marketplace and our nation's future economy: entrepreneurship. Today, women of color are the majority owners of close to one-third of all women-owned firms in the nation. Increased access to business capital—including microenterprises, venture-capital-funded firms, and crowd funding—has helped the number of women entrepreneurs grow substantially. But women of color face significant obstacles in starting their own businesses, leading to the question of why so many of them turn to entrepreneurship. The growth of women of color as business owners is part of a long-term trend, but the question of why this trend is occurring is often left unanswered. Looking at the alternative to entrepreneurship—the traditional workplace—sheds light on some of the reasons.

The poverty of suburban America
During the decade 2000-10 in the USA, for the first time the number of poor people in major metropolitan suburbs surpassed the number in cities. Between 2000 and 2011, the poor population in suburbs grew by 64% — more than twice the rate of growth in cities (29%). By 2011, almost 16.4 million residents in suburbia lived below the poverty line, outstripping the poor population in cities by almost 3 million people.

The ruins of empire: Asia's emergence from western imperialism Moreover, a narcissistic history – one obsessed with western ideals, achievements, failures and challenges – can only retard a useful understanding of the world today. For most people in Europe and America, the history of the present is still largely defined by victories in the second world war and the long standoff with Soviet communism, even though the central event of the modern era, for a majority of the world's population, is the intellectual and political awakening of Asia and its emergence, still incomplete, from the ruins of both Asian and European empires. The much-heralded shift of power from the west to the east may or may not happen. But only neo-imperialist dead-enders will deny that we have edged closer to the cosmopolitan future the first generation of modern Asian thinkers, writers and leaders dreamed of – in which people from different parts of the world meet as equals rather than as masters and slaves, and no one needs to shoot elephants to confirm their supremacy.

Visions of a Viable Future with Inspired Inspiring People
We are the Tasteless Gentlemen

We are not merely three men voicing our opinions of the world and the idiots which comprise it. We are the voices of men the world over. Men who have traversed the battlefield of love and life and returned harder (insert infantile chuckle here), better, faster, and stronger. We are the balls of men who have long since consigned their own genitals to wives, fiances, and girlfriends. We are the assholes you love to hate... and love to love. Why? Because we are men with hearts of gold and balls of steel. Balls hardened by the trials and tribulations of innumerable encounters with the fairer sex. ("Fairer," my ass...) And while we've clashed swords and genitals with many a maiden, we've somehow managed to retain the delicate sensibilities of the innocence and naivete of our youth. A time when girls were nothing more than objects of our affections and desires, and boobs were only something we watched late at night on scrambled channels in our parents' living rooms. It was an age when we believed women were to be admired, respected, and pursued. And we acted accordingly, and perhaps even got laid a few times in the process. But reality quickly set in, and we soon learned these dainty damsels were by no means so deserving of admiration, respect, or pursuit. They were evil beings, capable of ripping our respective hearts out of our rectums.

And so the chivalrous turned chiva"less", and respect became something earned, not given. Our pursuits became our passions, not the desires of an era long forgotten. And the girls we once admired learned to admire the hardened (insert another infantile chuckle here) men we'd become. Because it was they who made us. It was they who took the hearts on our sleeves and buried them in our respective crotches.

We are all gentlemen at heart... our hearts merely reside in a different location in this day and age. And this, my friends, makes us the Tasteless Gentlemen.
Join me on a journey, exploring some of the most beautiful cities this planet has to offer, and share with you tasty health tips, adventurous travel advice and bucket list worthy #BESTinations.

Isidore won't fill 'the bowl' of New Orleans
By Larry Copeland, USA TODAY
Most New Orleans tourist attractions were shuttered Wednesday
night as heavy rain from Tropical Storm Isidore pelted the city. The French
Quarter was deserted, the mayor had closed City Hall at noon and some streets
were flooded with more than a foot of water.
"We're getting some heavy bands of rain and some squall
rain," said Terry Tullier, director of the Orleans Parish Office of Emergency
Preparedness. "It's going to be like that throughout the night and until about
noon tomorrow. We're asking people to stay out of the casinos, get out of the
malls, go home, uncork a bottle of wine and sleep late tomorrow."
Forecasters originally expected Isidore to be a Category
4 hurricane, which would mean winds of 131-155 mph. Instead, Isidore dropped
to tropical storm status with winds of about 60 mph.
It wasn't expected to regain hurricane strength before
making landfall early Thursday.
"I think things are going remarkably well," Tullier said.
"This could have been the big one, but it's not, thank God."
The Big Easy gets to party on. This time, the bowl won't
Louisiana hurricane experts refer to a massive, killer
storm they say will inevitably hit the low-lying city as "filling the bowl."
"This storm will have minimal storm surge flooding," said
Marc Levitan, director of the Louisiana State University Hurricane Center. "At
the moment, we don't expect to see significant storm surge flooding that would
overtop the levees."
But experts say the city, which is below sea level, might
not be so lucky next time. They say the state's disappearing coastline leaves
it vulnerable to a Category 3, 4 or 5 hurricane that could kill up to 100,000
people and leave survivors stranded on rooftops fighting animal-borne diseases
and chemical-related illnesses.
"We're talking about a $100 billion catastrophe," said
Ivor van Heerden, deputy director of the LSU Hurricane Center and a former assistant
secretary of the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources.
A major reason for the Crescent City's vulnerability is
that the southeastern Louisiana coastline is losing 25-35 square miles a year
of marshland, which serves as the first line of defense against hurricanes.
Marshland protects the city by reducing a storm's wind energy and reducing its
storm surge. Each 1.5 miles of healthy marshland reduces a hurricane's storm
surge by one foot.
Southeastern Louisiana's wetlands began disappearing in
the early 1930s, when the federal government leveed the Mississippi River for
flood protection and sealed off some old natural waterways.
"We don't get the sediment and fresh water and nutrients
from the Mississippi through wetlands," van Heerden said. "As a result, they
have starved to death. We've probably lost half a million acres of wetlands
in the last 70 years. The outer buffer has just disappeared. As a result, the
storm surges are much higher for any given storm."
Levitan said other factors contributing to the loss of
wetlands include subsidence that is, the land sinking under its own weight
because New Orleans was built atop swampland; drought killing off soil-holding
marsh grasses, and the expanding population of nutria, the big rodents that
eat the roots of marsh grasses.

Torchwood ignites Starz, BBCWW pact
Expand Messages
- Torchwood ignites Starz, BBCWW pact
US-based Starz Entertainment and BBC Worldwide
Productions have signed a multi-year
production/distribution pact following the success of Torchwood.
The pair will co-develop and coproduce new
series, comprising one-hour episode dramas that
will debut on Starz's networks in the US and
English-speaking Canada. BBCWW will sell the resulting output internationally.
The pair used the model for the latest season of
Doctor Who spin-off Torchwood, which was stuck in
development hell till Starz came onboard as co-finance partner.
The agreement will see BBCWW Productions lead
production on the new shows, working in
partnership with Starz's Original Programming
team. Details of the new series will be announced
at a later date and, according to the pair, could total more than 100 hours.
C21 first reported that the BBC was considering
extending the Torchwood model in April, when BBC1
controller Danny Cohen said he was interested in using it for more dramas.
BBCWW Productions head Jane Tranter said today
that her unit was "in a uniquely similar place to
Starz" and that Torchwood: Miracle Day (which is
currently broadcasting in both the US and UK) had
a been a "collaborative and invigorating journey."
Starz effectively saved Torchwood when it joined
the Russell T Davies-penned sci-fi drama in June
last year. The most recent episode scored four
million viewers on BBC1 last week, while the
series has scored consistently good ratings for Starz.
Starz CEO Chris Albrecht said his network had
decided that international partnerships would
play a key part in new original programming soon
after he joined the firm in 2009. The BBCWW deal
was "a major step in that direction," he added.
"It will allow us to provide Starz subscribers
more original programming, while delivering
enhanced opportunity across all our domestic
distribution businesses including Anchor Bay and
Starz Digital Media," said Albrecht.
"Our partnership with BBCWW Productions and BBCWW
allows Starz to more quickly capitalize on the
strategic opportunity presented by the increasing
global consumption of US premium TV series,
added executive VP of strategy and business development John Penney.
BBCWW Productions, which began working on
scripted series for the US market two years ago
under Tranter, says it has already sold more than
20 scripted projects to various cable and
broadcast network, and has another 10 unscripted series in production.
Its latest commission is a local version of BBC
docu-reality series The Week the Women for
A+E-owned US cablenet Lifetime. Filming has begun
in Yemassee, South Carolina (population 867) on a
6x60' series. The format sees a town's female
population leaving, handing the males responsibility of running everything.
Jon Kroll, Elli Hakami and Tranter exec produce
along with Lifetime's Collen Conway, Rob Sharenow
and Gena McCarthy. Lifetime first commissioned
BBCWW Americas to produce a pilot of the format back in 2007.
On Friday, C21 broke the news the French version
- Une Semaine Sans les Femmes - had been taken to
series on France 2 after a successful one-off special earlier this year.

This is a game that has been there for a long time and has had very few features changed or added but it still remains one of the best football games. This game now has few hitches unlike the FIFA 10.
Xbox 360
The change you will notice here are like crosses which are more efficient and they are met with more often impressive results, the combination of the tweaked crosses and were introduced in this world cups game. However here the game is taken further by the variety of how the crosses are responded to whether they are an acrobatic volley or an outstretched toe or they are with a hammer-strong header.
This leads to greater chances of attacking, you will find that flanks are attacked and are now open and to score, it will take you more than hitting the ball around until it gets to someone who can put it straight in the goal. You will also notice that finding the back of the net is more difficult in FIFA 11. However it does not mean that just because there are more options it does not obviously follow that you will have more goals.
There is more emphasis placed on the good passes, with the games easier to overpower or under power the ball, also the postponing of a player is important here. You will also notice that there is more focus on individual player attributes than what the whole team does this is highlighted by the new prominence of the players in the team. The key to success in FIFA 11 is knowing each of your teams' players and their strengths. If there is a star player on the other team, the best thing is to mark them out of the game. All these new elements combined, the game is more thoughtful and the best players are expected to think three to two move in advance.
You will notice also that the game is slower and more real and it is likely that some encounters in the field may bubble up. The game initially may lack the steadiness but as you progress and if you can manage to have put in a goal at the last minute, you will be quite excited as there is the excitement just like in a console. There is also the visual upgrade which helps raise the level of immersion, the new improved pitch textures that add life to the game while the key players' resemblance has been enhanced .Sound too has bee upgraded to give an artistic feel to the game.
The crowd makes noises that will are more atmospheric and are tailored to specific regions in the game. For example if you are playing a game in South America, samba drums will be heard. The voices of the ever-present commentarians, Andy and Martin Tyler are also present. The fans' screaming helps to sustain the atmosphere as well. The single player options that have been consolidated to a career mode that does not have some of the statistical disfigurements that were in the previous versions. The excellence of the game is what wins in this version otherwise there is no innovation at all. It is a game you will enjoy playing and the upgrades will make you enjoy the game more.

Rowan Williams is right to tell supposed 'persecuted' Christians
In recent years much of the Christian community in the West has become fixated with the idea of its own ill-treatment, fulminating over any piddling little incident

This Easter, all Anglican eyes will be on the outspoken Archbishop of York in a year when he could reach the pinnacle of his denomination
Oxford University held its first debate on the subject of evolution in 1860, just months after the publication of Darwin's On the Origin of Species. Then, the Bishop of Winchester, Samuel Wilberforce, famously enquired of the biologist Thomas Henry Huxley whether it was through his grandmother or his grandfather that he traced his descent from a monkey.
John Sentamu's journey to the heart of the nation's religious life was completed at 5pm yesterday when a part-legal, part-liturgical church ceremony known as the Confirmation of the Election marked the start of his reign. The ceremony, led by Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury, and six senior bishops, took place at St Mary-Le-Bow in the City of London.
The closing ceremonies to mark the 60th anniversary of VE and VJ Days took place on a day of bright sunshine, but amid a sombre and reflective mood. At a service in Westminster Abbey, Dr Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury, said: "Today of all days, we need no reminder that the spirit of murder and humiliation is still abroad ..."

The Masonry Heater Association of North America (MHA) returned to World of Concrete for its fourth year. MHA members expanded its display of wood-burning appliance construction. Attendees saw how to construct a masonry heater and outdoor pizza oven—from layout through firing.
Masonry heaters are old world heating units using new wood-burning technology. "Homeowners looking to reduce pollutants and wood usage are purchasing masonry heaters in increasing numbers," says Richard Smith, MHA's executive director.
New this year at WOC, MHA volunteer members showed a wood-fired outdoor pizza oven. "Outdoor pizza ovens are becoming very popular and can be easily built by mason contractors," says Smith.
The World of Concrete is only one of the educational and training activities MHA members conduct each year. To learn more about the MHA training programs, visit their website.
