BYU's Holmoe announces Marriott Center renovations, addresses other issues
Provo • In a candid and far-ranging discussion on Friday, BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe announced substantial renovations will begin inside the 41-year-old Marriott Center on May 1. Holmoe also said BYU and Utah are still trying to extend their football series beyond 2012 but haven't contracted any future games yet, and proclaimed that football independence treated the Cougars relatively well their first year. But he shed little light on how long that will last or whether the program will be in a conference within a few years.
Holmoe addressed myriad other issues in the 65-minute round-table chat with reporters, including the importance of the school-owned television network (BYUtv) to the athletic department, his opinion on how potential changes to the Bowl Championship Series will affect BYU, and how BYU fared and is faring in its first season in the West Coast Conference for most sports except football.
But the biggest news concerned the Marriott Center changes. Most notably, the building that houses coach Dave Rose's highly successful men's basketball team will go from seating 22,700 to 20,900 as benches on the north side are replaced by chair seats. Also, a new sound system will be installed in the arena, and the men's and women's basketball locker rooms will be renovated.
Holmoe acknowledged that many BYU students will not like the change because the student seating section will be moved from mostly center court to behind the west basket. The new seats on the north side sections 21 to 27 will be padded and will be blue. Holmoe said plans to construct a basketball practice facility on campus are being discussed and feasibility studies are being conducted, but he couldn't give a timetable for those.
Other odds and ends from Friday's media summit:
• Holmoe said talks with Utah athletic director Chris Hill are continuing regarding extending the BYU-Utah football series beyond 2012's game at Rice-Eccles Stadium, and that as long as the two are talking he is confident agreements can be reached, most likely two games at a time.
• Regarding conference realignment and whether BYU is still a candidate to potentially join the Big 12, Holmoe said that "for the most part, I think [talks] have kind of died down," but said communication channels are open and BYU is still receptive to giving up football independence if the right opportunity comes along.
"We continue to have discussions, although to say that they are earth-shattering would be wrong," he said. "We are continuing to try to determine what the best pathways are going to be for BYU in the future."
Holmoe said BYU would not give up its policy of not playing on Sundays, but might be willing to give up other demands that don't compromise its mission as an institution sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
"I think that all the other topics have been discussed," he said. "And I think they are all things that can be worked out."
• Holmoe said BYUtv is not a roadblock to potentially joining another conference and called the network that reportedly reaches 60 million homes an overwhelmingly positive thing for the school.
"I think we have by far the best advantage of any school in the country by having BYUtv," he said.
• Holmoe said school officials are watching potential changes to the BCS closely, and admitted that the process "scares him," to some degree.
"Some of their proposals would probably be fine for us, and we could go on as an independent and plays as an independent and get into whatever the series is going to be. But depending on what the entry [requirement] is, into the BCS, could determine whether or not we would need to be affiliated with a conference, sure," he said.

A closer look
Highlights of BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe's Media Summit:
• Renovations to the 41-year-old Marriott Center will begin May 1 and will include upgrades to the locker rooms, a new sound system, and chair seats replacing the benches on north side's lower bowl.
• Talks with Utah to extend the football series beyond 2012 are still going on, but no contract is in place yet.
• BYU is willing to compromise on some of its demands to get into a major conference, but will never give up its no-Sunday-play stance.

A patient's-eye-view of nurses
- Posted on March 11th, 2014 filed in Newspaper
Lynn Babington, Ph.D., RN, professor and dean of Fairfield's School of Nursing, posted a comment on this intriguing article by Lawrence K. Altman, M.D., about Dr. Arnold S. Relman, the eminent former medical educator and editor. In it, Dr. Altman wrote, 'Despite decades as a medical educator, researcher, author and editor of The New England Journal of Medicine, Dr. Relman confesses that he "had never before understood how much good nursing care contributes to patients' safety and comfort, especially when they are very sick or disabled." Dr. Babington responded: Dr. Relman, a national leader in medical education, in a recent article about his experience as a patient, writes about his recent discovery of the importance of nursing care to the safety and recovery of patients. He specifically states, he "had never before understood how much good nursing care contributes to patients' safety and comfort, especially when they are very sick or disabled." He also noted, "What personal care hospitalized patients now get is mostly from nurses. When nursing is not optimal, patient care is never good." In fact, nurses go beyond making suggestions to physicians in the care of patients. Nurses, especially in the acute care setting, are in the best position to observe changes in patient's conditions, make decisions and provide interventions to not only prevent physical decline, but to augment healing and recovery. In nursing education today, students study physical assessment, pathophysiology and pharmacology, along with the basic sciences, so that they can recognize changing patient conditions and either implement immediate interventions to respond to those conditions or call in the patient care team, including the physician, to change the course of treatment for patients. Many patients and families do not recognize the importance of those very specialized assessment skills that nurses use every day. For example, a post operative patient may be progressing as planned, but when the nurse is speaking with the patient, she (and most nurses are women) may recognize that the patient has begun sweating and displaying agitation. The nurse will take the patient's blood pressure, check the heart rate and respiratory rate and note any changes from the last time these were recorded. She will check the wound site for redness, tenderness and any changes. Based on her assessments, she will contact the patient care team, including the physician, to discuss these findings (a potential infection or drug reaction) and seek appropriate interventions to prevent the patient from deteriorating. Nursing knowledge and assessment skills, along with communication skills, are essential to the safe recovery of patients. Nurses are at the bedside 24 hours a day, while physicians typically "check in" on a patient once or twice a day. The collaboration of the entire team has never been more important.

Coupling Corporation of America is a leading and innovative manufacturer
of shaft couplings, flexible shaft couplings and keyless hubs for
large rotating machinery and other shaft coupling applications.
Since 1968, CCA has been making shaft couplings by focusing on
the driving and driven machines, and then designing couplings
to complement them. Our shaft couplings come standard, with clamp
hubs, for a strong shaft connection with no keys, heat, or hydraulics.
Coupling Corporation manufactures the coupling industry's most
flexible steel coupling called the UltraFlexx
Coupling. Its unique "strut" design offers the most
flexibility and the lowest spring rates of any flexible shaft
couplings presently available. The FLEXXOR
couplings and the UltraFLEXX coupling's exceptionally light-weight
design does not compromise performance or reliability since they
are engineered for the most demanding applications. No maintenance
is required for our shaft couplings and no lubrication is needed.
Power plants, refineries, and large process plants use our flexible
shaft couplings for applications which include gas turbines, pumps,
auxiliary drive turbines, feed rollers, compressors, marine applications,
generators, motor drives, high misalignment areas, and high thermal
growth equipment.
Corporation's patented Anderson Clamp Hub is a keyless
hub that transmits torque through friction via a mechanical
shrink fit. The Anderson Clamp Hub works with most shafts –straight
and tapered, rough or smooth, keyed or keyless. It has many advantages
in lower cost, easier installation and maintenance.
For applications where quill shaft
soft couplings are required, Coupling Corporation designs
quill shaft couplings with flexible diaphragms so that the pulsations
from motors or engine drivers can be smoothed out to reduce stresses
in the driven components. These quill shaft
soft couplings, or quill shaft couplings, are also beneficial
for virtually eliminating vibration problems.
Corporation of America manufacturing plant is located in South
Central Pennsylvania and its technical sales representatives,
with engineering backgrounds, can be found throughout the United
States. Our highly trained engineering staff is available to solve
your particular shaft coupling and hub joint requirements.

BRADY, TEXAS -- This company has very unethical business practices, they offer a "free" trial offer - just pay shipping and handling of 4.95. Sounds great but if you don't scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the terms and conditions link, which is usually broken, you will be charged a 149.95 in 20 days if you don't cancel your membership, which the only place you find this is in the "terms in conditions". They make it very hard to find any info such as address or direct line contact info. If anyone has had any success with this getting their money back, please let me know.
MISSOURI -- I received an e-mail I thought was interesting today. Pure Energy Products maybe under different name now, NexgenlabsUSA.com and they offer free pills too. So beware consumers.

Celebrate Saving Trestles by Tying One On. Or Two. Or a Dozen
The little surfer girls and boys feel like hoisting a few in honor of the U.S. Commerce Department deciding against overturning the California Coastal Commission's previous rejection of the Transportation Corridor Agency's proposed toll-road route through San Onofre State Park and too close for comfort to the world-class surf breaks of Trestles. Scores of water lovers from Surfrider and other groups came out to a boisterous Commerce Department fact-finding hearing at Del Mar Fairgrounds in September.
In fact, Friday, Feb. 6, is the one year anniversary of the Coastal Commission vote to strike down the Foothill/South 241 toll-road proposal, so that calls for a second round. Then there was this from yesterday about the TCA's shaky bond ratings, which should further prevent any urge to splurge on a Trestles-wrecking road, so bring us a third, barkeep. And there was the TCA deciding at a recent board meeting not to pursue legal action against the federal government and instead reach out to "stakeholders" for a different traffic solution, and should that traffic solution not involve mucking up Trestles or carving through a state park, why that deserves yet another round. Heck, let's just have it and assume it'll be a Trestles-friendly route. It's not like they can afford to build it without bond financing.
Woooooo, now I'm feeling woozy. There may not be a road to ride on, but can somebody be my designated surfer, er, driver?

NARRAGANSETT—Run! Run! Run!
It was a simple message West Warwick coach Richard Grenier had for his players Wednesday as the Wizards ran, ran, ran past Narragansett for a 57-30 victory in the opening round of the Narragansett Summer League playoffs.
"Our game at West Warwick for as long I've been there is to just push the tempo and run as fast we can up the floor," Grenier said. "We've done a very good job of that. We've been very consistent with our fast break and we've been very unselfish the entire summer."
Dan Doyle did his best to keep the Mariners in the game – dropping a team-high 19 points in the process – as Narragansett only trailed 25-18 heading into the break thanks to a 10-4 stretch from the junior point guard to end the first half.
"We wanted to slow them down the best we could and we were able to do that once we started moving the basketball," said Jay August, who coaches the Mariners' junior varsity squad in the winter. "Kids were good with the basketball and it started to open things up, so we were able to keep it close."
A quick bucket out of the half got the Mariners to within five but that would be as close as the Wizards allowed their opposition to get.
Kody Greenhalgh and Brad Young combined to score 23 of West Warwick's next 27 points as the top-seeded Wizards opened up a commanding 52-25 advantage over the Mariners with seven minutes left to play.
"That man defense kind of got us a little flustered," August said. "They were able to get a couple key turnovers. We had a couple opportunities, couldn't finish on a couple layups that we had but I'm pretty happy. The kids work hard and I can't ask for anything more than that."
Greenhalgh scored a game-high 20 points, while Young finished up with 15. The Wizards only needed three points from Austin Paygai, who was a disruptive force defensively and spearheaded West Warwick's up-tempo style.
Next up for the Wizards will be a match-up with Providence Country Day – who escaped with a one-point victory on a buzzer beater in overtime in the game prior – Monday at 8 p.m. at Christofaro.
West Warwick has yet to lose a game this summer, which is a bit of a scary thought for the rest of the league heading into the winter as it has been without one of its best players in Trevor Lawton.
As for the Mariners, Wednesday's game marked the end of an interesting summer to say the least.
Narragansett equally divided its talent and leadership amongst two summer league teams, all the while without knowing who its head coach will be this winter with Dave Gee leaving the program.
Even still, August says both Mariner squads achieved their goal of gaining familiarity with the other players and flat out improving their skills.
"Once we got going – I'd say after that first game, the first game for both teams was tough – the kids worked hard," August said. "[It was] exactly what I was looking from them.
…They got better in the summer and that's all I can ask. It's not really about winning summer league. They came out here, they competed, they worked together [and they did] all the things that we need to get better at to compete in Division II next year."

Motorists warned of Dalek invasion by hacked road sign | Naked Security
We've reported in the past about road signs that have been hacked to warn about zombies, of an invasion by the British, and even to spell the word "POOP".
Now, according to media reports, a road sign is warning of an interstellar invasion – all the way from the planet Skaro.
The Daleks, the extermination-loving tin pepperpots from British sci-fi TV show "Doctor Who", have clearly picked up on the programme's growing popularity in the United States, and allegedly invaded Denver, Colorado.

About the hotel
The Angel is a historic village pub surrounded by farmland, next to a 600 year old church, and yet it is ideally situated two miles from Bristol city centre and its business heartland and fifteen minutes drive from Bristol Airport. Half an hours walk away is the newly developed waterfront. The Angel has a high reputation for its food, and has won many recent awards for its ales.
The good news is that it is now able to offer five rooms for bed and breakfast accommodation. Very close are some of Bristol's finest features, including the Avon Gorge with Brunel's famous suspension bridge and the SS Great Britain, Ashton Court, Clifton Downs, several golf courses, and many more. The Angel dates from 1495, and has been the village pub in Long Ashton for several hundred years. It is a family run pub, and since Sian took it over in 2003 has earned great popularity with both the locals and the business community. It is often used for business meetings, weddings, dinner parties and other celebrations. For bird lovers it is a listed breeding site for swallows who reside and nest in the adjoining barn between April and October every year.

Lovely accommodation and really cosy pub!
We really enjoyed our one night stay at this pub.
Our room was located towards the back of the pub, so we barely heard the happily drinking visitors below. The room itself was spacious, had lots of character and provided everything we needed. The (very dog friendly) pub itself has a wonderful atmosphere and really friendly staff. The food was fabulous and the crackling fireplace gave the place a particularly cosy touch. Exactly what we were looking for on a windy cold night. A mere 10 minute walk away you can find a huge park with lots of deer, fantastic for a relaxing morning walk. The connection to town also couldn't be better, with the bus stop located right in front of the pub. Long story short, we would definitely recommend the place to anyone and would go back there anytime!

Cosy & pleasant
Great location with countryside feel.
Bus stop just outside the pub with fast & easy access to Bristol town. Room was large enough for us with 2yr old daughter who had fun playing around in the room. Shame about no wifi in the room only have to go downstairs in the bar to get connected. Friendly staff & served good food. Parking is not a problem on street but be caution of the lorries using the narrow road to access the farm.

I'm a first or second-year student. What should I be doing now to plan for off-campus study?
First you should attend the Off-Campus Studies (OCS) Informational Meeting for new students held during Opening Week and the Off-Campus Studies Fair, which is usually held in late October or early November. Then you should attend an OCS First Step Meeting no later than the first semester of your sophomore year. These are small group meetings intended to help students get started with planning for study abroad. Please note that if you plan to major in the sciences, music or theater, it is often advisable to begin to take courses in your intended major during your first year, if you wish to go abroad. Check with your academic adviser about whether you need to begin taking courses in your intended major.
Can I earn full credit while studying away?
Most students who participate on an off-campus study program through Whitman earn a full semester of credit, usually 15-16 credits. In order to earn transfer credit from off-campus study, you must have pre-approval from Whitman and earn a C- or better in the courses. To obtain pre-approval, you must complete the Whitman Off-Campus Study Application.
I have not studied a foreign language. Do I have to study abroad in an English-speaking country?
Whitman College offers a number of study abroad options in countries where English is not the main language spoken in which students may begin foreign language study and take elective courses in English. Currently such Partner Programs are located in Austria, Germany, Greece, India, Israel, Italy, Jordan, Korea, Spain, Thailand, and Vietnam. These programs are excellent for students who wish to immerse themselves in a foreign culture but have not yet developed proficiency in a foreign language.
How many semesters of a foreign language do I need before going abroad?
Most of Whitman's Partner Programs in Germany, France, Spain and Latin America require that students have completed four or five semesters of college-level courses in the relevant foreign language or the equivalent. This usually means that you need to have completed at least the 206-level language course at Whitman or one semester of a third-year language course before going abroad. Most programs prefer that students enroll in a course in the target language the semester before going abroad to ensure that their language skills are not rusty. It is generally advisable to take as much of the target language as possible before going abroad.
When is the best time to study off-campus?
Because many programs require that students have completed at least two years of their college education to participate, and because Whitman has senior examination or thesis requirements in the majors, Whitman expects that students will study off-campus during one or both semesters of their third year of college.
What OCS programs are recommended by my Major Department?
Off-Campus Studies and the Major Departments at Whitman College have worked together to produce new Off-Campus Studies Advising sheets for each major. The purpose of the new OCS Major Advising sheets is to provide students information that will help them decide when and where to study off-campus and how this might fit into their major program at Whitman. The Major Advising sheets list recommended programs, provide guidelines on course loads, and describe the major department's philosophies towards off-campus studies, including how the department views OCS experiences as potentially integrating into the major. The new Off-Campus Studies Advising Sheets for each major can be found at Off-Campus Study by Major.
Can I get major credit for courses taken off-campus?
Whether or not you may apply off-campus study credit toward your major requirements is up to your major adviser or your major department. Most major departments at Whitman are willing to approve transfer credit toward the major quite readily if the course is suitable. Whitman students must take at least two-thirds of the courses in their major on the Whitman campus. Most departments at Whitman allow a maximum total of 8-12 transfer credits (including both foreign and domestic transfer credit) to be applied toward the major.
Do I have to study on a program that is related to my major?
It is not always necessary to study off-campus on a program that is related to your major, although it is often highly recommended. Many students find it interesting to take courses off-campus in their major field, as it gives them insight into how that field is approached in other parts of the world.
Can I earn distribution credit during off-campus studies?
If you take off-campus courses in the appropriate fields, you may apply them to the relevant distribution requirements at Whitman. The advisers of Off-Campus Studies (OCS) can offer you guidance as to which courses are likely to apply to certain distribution areas. The final decision regarding distribution credit rests with the Whitman Registrar.
Will my grades from off-campus study count?
Grades from off-campus study do have an impact on your academic record. If you attend a Partner Program during the academic year, your off-campus course grades will be posted on your Whitman transcript. However, they will not be averaged into your Whitman cumulative grade point average. Graduate schools and employers often want to see all college transcripts with grades, so off-campus grades can have an impact on future opportunities.
I'm a transfer student. Can I participate in an off-campus study program?
Transfer students are often able to participate on an off-campus study program through Whitman, but it does take careful planning. Keep in mind that you must study at Whitman at least one semester before you can apply to an off-campus study program. This means being enrolled at Whitman at least two semesters before you participate in an off-campus study program. Also, remember that the maximum total number of credits that you may transfer from any institution (including study abroad, domestic colleges and universities, AP and Running Start credit) and apply toward your Whitman degree is 70 credits.
Can I apply to attend two different off-campus programs - one in the fall and one in the spring of the same academic year?
Typically, the OCS staff advises against this as it is usually best to stay on one program for the year to take advantage of immersion into and understanding of the host country's culture. Whitman students who wish to study on two different off-campus programs in one year must demonstrate an extremely compelling academic reason for wanting to do so by writing an additional essay as part of the Off-Campus Study (OCS) Application. This essay and complete application will be reviewed carefully by the Off-Campus Studies Committee to determine the academic merit of this study plan and approval will only be granted in exceptional cases as justified by extremely compelling academic goals. Please note that there is no guarantee that students applying for two different programs in one year will be approved.
Can I apply for Semester in the West during the fall semester of my junior year and for off-campus study during the spring semester of my junior year?
Students who are accepted to the Semester in the West program during their junior year may consider applying for study abroad for the spring of their junior year, if it complements their academic program at Whitman. However, because you would be studying away both semesters of your third year, this will take careful planning in terms of completing your major and general education (distribution) requirements. Moreover, your choices of study abroad destination countries will be somewhat more limited because the process for applying for a student visa to enter some countries must be started well before Semester in the West ends. For example, it is usually not possible to study abroad in France, Spain, Italy, Chile or Austria the semester after participation in Semester in the West because those countries require in person applications by the student at the host country's Consulate when Semester in the West is still in session. We recommend that students interested in combining participation in Semester in the West with off-campus study in their junior year, attend an Off-Campus Studies (OCS) First Step Meeting no later than spring of their first year. OCS First Step Meetings introduce students to off-campus study programs and the OCS application process. After attending a First Step Meeting, students may schedule an individual advising appointment with an adviser in the OCS Office.
How will my financial aid be calculated?
Students attending Whitman's Partner Programs are eligible to apply their Whitman need-based aid and merit scholarships to the fees of the program. Whitman's Office of Financial Aid Services will recalculate the aid awards for students who study off campus and have need-based aid based on the total basic cost to attend the Partner Program. Typically this will include Whitman tuition, program room and board, visa fee, and an estimate for out-of-pocket expenses including airfare, local transportation, books and personal expenses. If the total basic program cost is higher than the on-campus budget, then Whitman's Office of Financial Aid Services will recalculate the student's financial aid award according to the higher cost of the program. Conversely, if the total basic program cost is less than the on-campus budget, then the student may be eligible for less aid than they would on campus.
Students who are not currently receiving need-based aid but believe they may qualify for aid when they study off campus because of the higher cost of the OCS program may apply to Whitman's Office of Financial Aid Services for consideration of financial aid for their OCS semester/year. Students must submit a current FAFSA and CSS Profile, and parent tax returns to apply for consideration. The deadline to apply is October 1 for spring semester OCS participants and May 1 for fall semester and full-year OCS participants.
Work study students should note that work study is not available outside the U.S. and students may need to borrow more funds in loans to cover the work study portion of their aid award.
Any student with financial aid who is considering off-campus study and has questions about how it will impact their financial aid is encouraged to schedule an appointment with one of the staff members in the Office of Financial Aid Services.
How will Whitman merit scholarships be handled?
Students who receive Whitman merit scholarships can apply them directly to the fees of Whitman OCS Partner Programs. Merit scholarships are typically not recalculated when a student studies off campus unless the merit scholarship exceeds the total basic cost to attend the OCS program.
Are there special Outside Scholarships for study abroad/off-campus studies that will help me defray costs?
Yes! Many study abroad program providers offer both need-based aid and merit scholarships. In addition there are national scholarships such as the Gilman, Boren NSEP, and Freeman Asia that offer study abroad scholarships. We expect students who receive financial assistance from Whitman to apply to all outside scholarships for which they may be eligible to help make off-campus studies more affordable. For a list of outside scholarships, please see Fees and Scholarships. For specific advice about your eligibility for scholarships, please consult with Barbara Hoffman, Assistant Director of Off-Campus Studies.
If you receive an outside scholarship from a study abroad program provider or national study abroad scholarship, you will typically receive the entirety of those funds to help defray the cost of your off-campus studies fees. Receiving an outside scholarship will not reduce your Whitman scholarship, except in the rare case in which your combined Whitman financial aid and outside scholarship exceeds the total basic cost of your off-campus studies program.
Any outside scholarship you receive could also reduce your loan eligibility. It is possible that you might qualify for less subsidized loan as a result of the additional scholarship due to your expected family contribution from completing the FAFSA.

By Patsy R. Brumfield / Daily Journal
HOUSTON, Texas – Before the mid-afternoon break, former Stanford CFO James Davis began to describe mounting concerns that the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission was sniffing around their doors.
It was about the U.S.-based sales program for certificates of deposit sold through Stanford International Bank Ltd. in Antigua.
In 2005, this inquiry apparently is the first documentation that someone thought what was going on was a Ponzi scheme.
(Below is a running account for the final segment of this week's trial of R. Allen Stanford, Davis' ex-boss who's on trial alone for his involvement in a $7.2 billion scheme to defraud the CD purchasers.
For other running reports of testimony, written since the trial's second week, when the Daily Journal began its reports, go to www.djournal.com and click on the Allen Stanford Trial News icon.)
Please forgive the typos and glitches likely when I type as fast as I can … patsy
• • •
4:15 – Judge says looking to end at 5 or close to it. (JURY GETS EXCITED.)
(Shellmach – think we'll end right on time…. To Davis, back to letter from FSRC prepared with RAS and Alvarado … 2nd graph) (Says SEC doesn't have any documentation. King responds by saying … ) FSRC extends to SEC invitation to visit offices to review what FSRC's SIBL reports. As is customary with such a request, memo of understandiing to both must be entered into such a visit. Look forward to successful MOU… would form basis of working together.
(Did come time when talked about letter with RAS?) Yes. (When?) One other time, Feb. 2009. RAS said Alvarado and he had written the letter. (How came up) I shared with him that I had no faith in Alvarado in helping us with the fraud… Feb. 2009, and RAS said he had no faith in Tom Sjloblo, outside counsel. I said Alvarado isn't doing anything but yelling and hollering, no resolution to our problems. He said MY God, Jim, Mauricio wrote the letter! (Mr. Alvarado?) Yes, letter of 2006. (Final days… Hewlett, bank auditor and accountant – had he been hired before you started with RAS?) Yes. (Did RAS say who hired Hewlett?) Yes, RAS.
(What did RAS say about selected Hewlett for bank?) Said saw his shingle hanging from office, that God had led him to Hewlett. (Explain why so fortunate?) Said he could rely upon him to audit the bank, GIB, and not ask too many questions. (Wht did Hewlett firm audit include?) Very similar to other certified auditors. He would verify the amounts listed on balance sheet and subsequent statements, with one excepetion. Not verify amounts in investment section in a comprehensive way. Did't require financial statement from investment house or banks to verify amounts. (What info was he given about bank assets?) He was given the same info that was in promotional materials for the bank as well as govt. reports such as FSRC.
(But was he given any other to back up reports, like acct statements from money managers?) NO. (Did he ask for it?) Yes, he mentioned rquest for a number of years. (Did he ask you for them?) I said yes, you should have them and will. (How long?) 16 years. (Did Hewlett ever raise that topic and threaten to quit?) No sir. (Every year that Hewlett was auditor, did he issue an opinion in annual report that he verified assets of the bank?) Yes, he wrote it and signed it. (Ever told about $2B RAS loans?) No. (Ever given backup info for bank assets invested?) Yes, given info on all assets excluding Tier 3 items, "The Hole."
(Did RAS talk about fees to Hewlett?) (Say paying anything else?) Yes, we talked about that. (What did RAS say about other payments to Hewlett, beyond audit fees?) He said payments above and beyond normal fees. Also in later years, made loans to Hewlett thru B of Antigua Ltd. and other payments subsequent to that loan. (Did RAS say any parrtiular acct. he was using to do that?) Talked to me about fees being paid, I talked to him about fees from slush account directly to Mr. Hewlett. (From slush fund, auditing fees or something else?) These fees were bribes, not recorded on books.
(Why transfers weren't on books?) Basially becaise they were so far in excess of normal charges in those services rendered by Mr. Hewlett. (Davis… draw diagram of payments from RAS to Hewlett?) Davis … draws in flip chart…big circle at top, line down to another circle, line down to another circle. (Was Hewlett paid any other way? Draw that?) Davis puts separate circle out from top circle with line to it. …. (So, walk us thru) Yes sir. SIBL CD money sent two places to Hewlett … one normal audit fees from SIBL, visible. (In addition?) Yes … SIBL CD money to this Swiss acct… money went to Hewlett's personal account in London, England, suburb.
(Why paid in 2 diff accounts?) Hewlett told me that he wanted excess amts in London because didn't want revenue dept. of Antigua to be aware of them.
(What did RAS say payments from Swiss accts to Hewlett's in London?) He didn't tell me frequency. (Understand later?) I told him wire transfer on monthly basis. (Who negotiated?) I did, with RAS' knowledge. Yes, he approve amts. (Exhibit – bank records Societe Generale …letter March 14, 2002… to Blaise Freedly, who was he?) Freedly was SG banking officer in charge of SIBL accts in Switzerland. (Also on SIBL advisory board and paid a fee for that?) Yes. (Amt to Hewlett's acct in London?) Davis – correct something?

Whatever type of business you do, whatever category your business falls under (solo entrepreneurship, small business or big corporation), as long as you make purchases that are essential for your operations, there's a common denominator that's likely to stay for the long haul – bills and invoices from your partner suppliers. Your ability to properly tackle these invoices in a timely and efficient manner can go a long way, especially in terms of productivity, business continuity and financial bottom line.
The beauty of doing business in today's era is the immediate availability of software that can automate your invoice approval process, especially if the process is carried out by a team. Keeping your data in the cloud and available to all parties involved anytime, anywhere is another huge advantage.
The invoice approval process revisited
In most businesses, invoices received for purchases like bookcases, stationery, copiers, printers, inks, toners, computers and others usually follow payment terms that can be anywhere from 15, 30, 60, 90 days, or whichever term you and the supplier decide to agree upon.
The moment you receive the invoice, it is routed to the concerned department, usually the accounts payable division of the finance and administration department, for processing and documentation. Items and figures listed are verified, checked for possible inaccuracies, and that all required fields for the actual processing to commence are provided, such as tax information, invoice number, purchase quantity, price, date, among others.
For big companies being serviced by multiple suppliers, doing all this the "old school" way, with piles of folders with invoices for verification, can be pretty unimaginable.

Automating the invoice approval process
The invoice approval process, when left manual and paper-based, is slow and inefficient, to say the least, especially when your business has several different offices in different locations. When digitized (automated, that is), besides all pertinent data being stored in a single repository for easy storage, processing and retrieval, automatic updates are conveniently provided to other departments as well, suppliers, too, if your approval protocol allows for that.
That being the case, automating your invoice approval process means:
- saving a good number of manned hours for tracking and delivering invoice-related data here and there
- eliminating the need to create double invoice entries when the original cannot be found because the person responsible is on leave and out of reach
- ensuring that the invoice is routed to the right person at the right time
- fewer supplier inquiries
- no late or inaccurate payments
- taking advantage of early payment discounts
- easy data integration within departments
With the right invoice approval software, you should be able to add and remove fields without much difficulty, despite the lists, forms and other templates being pre-built. As well, even without advanced programming skills, you should be able to design and formulate workflows according to your existing business protocols, like if the invoice exceeds a certain amount, it automatically goes to key people for re-verification and approval.
And then there's an e-mail feature that allows you to link an e-mail address to your invoice approval process workflow. Once a supplier sends an invoice to this particular address, an item containing the invoice number and unique URL is automatically created. After which, the assigned personnel are notified, and the approval process commences.
If you're still manually approving your invoices, you're probably not capitalizing on the efficiency gains an automated invoice approval software can conveniently offer. Given all the points above, if you think this is something that will benefit your business and would like to see it in action in your own unique environment, Comindware Tracker offers a 30-day free trial.

I forgot the location actually. Was it Zevil island for all fights? I was implying that Milluki and Zushi have time to prepare. I think Milluki is much more clever then Zushi, I could see him setting up a trap. Zushi is also much younger on top of being a novice. He is of course incredibly strong and much more agile then Milluki, so I though it'd be a tough call. It wouldn't be a close fight at all, but any 1 factor could swing it in the others favor in a long range battle. Keep in mind folks this isn't a tournament bout. I also assume Milluki was trained properly for at least 5-9 years of his life, before he probably gave up (due to being jealous of the attention Killua got and laziness) so I wonder if any of those skills might help him too. For all we know he has a good hatsu ability, who else thinks he has nen? His category is listed in the 2004 guide book as Manipulation (Same as Zushi)
I really would love to see Milluki show off what level of skill he has left or is capable of on his own. Really its just speculation.
Now the next fight? Having experience on Zevil Island, Leorio punches the ever loving mess out of that teleporting fool. Kastro probably would trick him with a double but he always seemed arrogant and sloppy to me. Somehow Leorio comes out on top. Idk, both Kastro and Leorio seem like hasty rash guys. I think the battle would be an utter mess regardless of who wins!
I think Leorio would end up taking this one, but more because of the pre-emptive strike than anything. If this was a direct fight, I could see it going either way, with the odds in favor to Kastro.
Oh okay I got one.
Zeno Zoldyck vs Morel
I sort of realized that after I said it too Host, but elaborate. How do you think it might go down? I think Morel has one of the best long distance hatsu in the series. And if somehow Morel could get first strike I think he might stand an ounce of a chance. Maybe saying Silva would have been slightly more fair :p. I wanted to make a match up of two characters who we know a fair amount about of their Hatsu, but it still seems like a mismatch.
Yeah, I also agree on Zeno taking this one easily.
Let's see... Kurapika VS Hisoka. Hisoka counts as a Ryodan for the purposes of this fight.
Kurapika takes Hisoka. Hisoka likes to play around, and if he didn't know his ability he wouldn't watch out for it.
