Nike Lunar Empress Golf Shoes for Ladies - Turbo Green
Made with a no-sew upper and Dynamic Flywire support, the Nike® Lunar Empress Golf Shoes for ladies help keep you comfortable while locking down your feet with an adaptive fit. Lunarlon cushioning is made with a soft, resilient foam core encased within a supportive foam carrier for ultra-plush cushioning, springy response, and support. This innovative lightweight foam—30% percent lighter than traditional Phylon—allows the force of each step's impact to be more evenly distributed and helps reduce painful pressure points on your foot. Dynamic support in the shoe's midsole provides the stability you need; more soft foam on the lateral side provides cushioning on impact, and more firm foam on the medial side provides enhanced support. Flywire, which gets its strength from thin nylon fibers strategically placed on the upper of the shoe to hold the foot in place, helps provide ultra-lightweight support and comfort. Because they're made of lightweight fibers and used only where they're needed, Dynamic Flywire support allows for a significant reduction in the overall weight of the shoe. Ladies, get your Nike Lunar Empress Golf Shoes and enjoy their streamlined fit and custom comfort during every round. Imported.
- No-sew upper for a lightweight fit and minimal distractions
- Full-length Lunarlon midsole for springy, responsive cushioning
- Dynamic Fit with Flywire bundles for lightweight support and adaptive comfort
- Full-length sockliner for enhanced comfort
- Rubber outsole with integrated traction for durability and a great grip
- 1-year limited waterproof warranty

I've found sometimes the limit is tolerated, other times it is not.

Camby On Trade to Clips 'Lowest Point of My Life'
After spending the last six seasons in the cold of Denver, you'd think Marcus Camby would be overjoyed at the idea of moving to sunny Southern California as a member of the Los Angeles Clippers. You'd think, but according to the BOSTON GLOBE who caught up with the former UMass star, you'd be wrong.
Camby who was dealt to the Clips on July 16th in exchange for a second round pick in the 2010 draft says, "With everything I've been dealing with off the court, this is the lowest point of my life." Ouch! Sure, the Clippers are considered by many to be the worst franchise in all of sports, but they just added Baron Davis and more importantly you'll be living in Hollywood.
I don't know if Marcus is aware of this, but they shoot American Idol in Hollywood and all those kids say "It's a dream come true," when they get picked to go to Los Angeles. Why you so down on the Clippers, Camby? Read more…

Brian Sanches Outrighted; Roy Halladay Returns
Posted by Ian Riccaboni, Tue, July 17, 2012 03:41 PM | Comments: 45
Joe Savery can breathe easier tonight. He'll be a Phillie for a bit longer, afterall.
In the corresponding move to Roy Halladay being activated from the DL, Brian Sanches was outrighted to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. Sanches was ineffective in 6.1 IP, posting a 9.95 ERA and allowing 4 HR in his second tour with the Phils. Halladay will start tonight against the Dodgers in LA.

Here its OK for Howard to hit vs a lefty in the 8th.
In other cities they dont just send players up aimlessly to fail.
They play to win.
SF benched Zito and Rowland simply to beat a team like the phillies.
Here we have our stars and they hit 1 3 and 4.
Regardless of anything else they will hit.
Charlie, Ruben, the fans and the orginazation stand behind this.
I am horrible for even pointing this out.

AFW, can you tell me which of the following get pinch-hit for vs. lefties? I honestly don't know, but it sounds like you do…
Andre Ethier? .605 OPS vs. LHPs in 2011-12
Justin Morneau? .396
Adam Dunn? .514
Carl Crawford? .570
Eric Hosmer? .576
Ichiro Suzuki? .584
Jason Heyward? .624
Cameron Maybin? .641
Nick Markakis? .646
Shin-Soo Choo? .667

Adam Dunn?????????
That was a total pull the pants down for me. I said youd trade them all for Dunn and they wouldnt.
With the 122 average last year.
Ryan Howard would not hit for me in a close game vs a lefty in the late innings.
He wouldnt.
Id send up a pitcher or anyone else.
A woman from the stands.
Why would you send him up?
What belief do you have?
Not even so much tonight or in the regular season.
But if the miracle happened and they made the playoffs.
If 700 year old Arthur Rhodes threw 7 000 000 pitches the big contract wasnt hitting any of them.
Why do I want to win and you dont?

Andrew –
Obviously there is a statistical argument for what you say. But put into context. The Phils are locked into Howard – whatever you say about the decision that is a fact. So the Phils need to get what they can which means they need a motivated Howard. Pinch hitting for a star late in the game will have a negative effect on his pysche. It will, how much I don't know. These are human beings not statistical models.
Another point is that you after you pinch hit for him he is gone. So if the close game becomes tied and you have to go around the lineup again there is no Howard and perhaps the lefty is out of the game.
When you add those two together you will tend to keep in your left handed challenged start. Which gets back to Schmenkman's question and why the answer is none. What these manager's know is that these are people and you have a limited bench.
We all want to win but there are lots of way to win AND lots of ways to lose.

Square 1
The entitlement of starting Oswalt over Worley in game 4 last year is why we are here.
Entitling the old guys is 100% of every problem.
I start Worley in game 4.
And I sit Howard and hit Worley 4th.
Worley pitches and plays first.
Guess what. It couldnt have been worse.
And I bet Worley would have run to first on a fair ball.
Unlike Rollins.
Hes locked up though. So you can be happy.

Hey Andy from WalMart. The Phils stunk without Howard in the lineup in case you missed it.Ty Wig and AAAAberry didn't cut it. They won 102 games last year with Howard carrying them. Utley bats third because no one else on this team can. You are right about JRoll leading off though.
You do know repeating the stuff all the times means you're stupid.

I just want to clarify this for all you Ruben Amaro and Charlie Manuel lovers.
The next time Pence looked at a ball wrong
Not an error not a misplay
He catches the ball.
He looked wrong
Id put him on the curb and hed walk back home.
From houston or LA or wherever it was.
Just like Rollins should have when he didnt run to first in game 5 and Howard should have when he was swiinging away 3-0.
There are no repurcussions . Not in this land.
Let Andrew from Waldorf manage the team.
I bet they run to first. ??????
Or Id cut them and thier 150 million dollar contract and id eat it.
0-162 but they will run to first. They wont laugh at a loss.
This is not acceptable but to a few of you.
They can hit 10000000000000000000000000 home runs for a losing team.
A winner runs to first.
You Charlie and Ruben accept this.
I do not.
Carry on

I agree. You are a major league baseball player. You get paid zillions of dollars. I get paid squat and I still try my best. If you can't run hard to first base than you are a dog, a canine, a mutt. I decided last year when Brown didn't run that ball out that I was done with him. I want him in CF for the rest of the year to build his trade value but I don't want him on my team. A guy not running a ball out is kinda like what they say about dogs: A dog can be the best dog in the world until he bites. Then you take him out and shoot him. A guy not running out a grounder is despicable and it is a glimpse into a man's heart. Word.

Damn, Dipsy, I hope I never kill anybody and have you on my jury. You gave the guy life for that 1 incident?
I guess if I actually killed somebody, it'd be fair to have you on my jury. Maybe if I were falsely accused, or had good reason, like the killee was a Mets fan, I'd prefer a different juror.

Oh, okay, then I'll go out and kill somebody then.
But seriously, I hate that, too, and I know the game has many, many players who don't need to learn from that experience, and I wasn't too thrilled with it either, but I'm still naive enough to hope his athletic talent translates to baseball success, including a killer instinct. Maybe I was read too many fairy tales as a kid, but that's my hope

One thing about this here blog, it's all Phillie fans, whether views are similar or not.
So I don't mean to cross lines by a couple mentions of other clubs that might inspire anti- feelings, but a couple things on individual notes catching my attention on the out of town scoreboard as we are t minus less than an hour until The Doc.
First, Decline alert. Albert Pujols has raised his average to .279 and homer total to 16 with a 3-3 effort against Detroit. Pujols has been in decline for about 3 years. He continues to reinforce it.
Same game, Trout alert. Mike has upped his average to .354. He's now on top of the mark needed to become the first 20 year old to hit .350 since Ty Cobb. Ty Freaking Cobb. That is huuuge when your baseball skills or ahievements are mentioned with Cobb. One irony of the Angles situation is that Pujols is like the greatest player of some measure of time or competition by reputation. He's only a rook, with a long way to go, but wouldn't it be ironic if the greatest whatever he is in Pujols is actually playing with the greatest in his yet to be determined category in Trout.
Lastly, in no way, shape or form am I comparing the situations, but there's another quality pitcher making his 2012 re-debut tonight, and in his case sans any rehab against actual competition. CC Sabathia. 6 shutout innings, 4 hits, 6K, 1 walk versus a Batistaless Jays.
squad. Let's see how close Doc comes to approaching those impressive results.

21 pitches that inning, seemingly a lot of them more stress than not.
And the Dodgers turned the lineup, which figures to be to their advantage.
Be nice to see some mid game groove before the Doc's night is done. At this point, 5 innings looks like the max, which was about what was expected, but even pitchinjg better, 4 might be the way to go.
It's only his 1st start back, so we're not looking for miracles.

I certainly share your opinion of T4, but T3 was nothing but a remake of T2 with the ending reversed. It wasn't bad, it had just been made already 12 years earlier.

The Golden Age of astronomy
Suvi Gezari
- John Hopkins University
In this Golden Age of astronomy, when youre trying to investigate a problem, you dont have to just go about it with one telescope or in one wavelength region of light. You can use a whole array of telescopes and really study the problem from many different angles.
Ground versus space-based telescopes
Suvi Gezari
- John Hopkins University
The age of ground based telescopes is not over, even though we have wonderful satellite telescopes that detect x-ray radiation and ultraviolet radiation.
How I became an astronomer
Suvi Gezari
- John Hopkins University
I really got involved in astronomy research in college doing summer research programs and thats when I really decided that I wanted to do astronomy as a profession.
Light spectra
Suvi Gezari
- John Hopkins University
Light comes in a spectrum of energies and wavelengths.
Alternative techniques of studying distant black holes

- John Hopkins University
So what about all the other super massive black holes that are sitting there? How can we figure out how big they are and how theyre affecting the rest of the galaxy if theyre not producing any radiation from swallowing gas?

Alumni Spotlight: Aminta Ossom '09, Crowley Fellow in International Human Rights, Leitner Center for International Law and Justice at Fordham Law School
April 25, 2014 | 2 Comments
Aminta Ossom '09 is the Crowley Fellow in International Human Rights at the Leitner Center for International Law and Justice at Fordham Law School. With an ongoing interest in international issues as a first generation American, Ossom was inspired to pursue a career in human rights after taking an undergraduate course in religion and foreign policy that profiled faith-based human rights campaigns. She entered law school knowing that she wanted to work in the public interest but was torn between pursuing a career in international human rights or domestic civil rights law.
After completing internships working on children's rights issues with the International Justice Mission and the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice, Ossom committed to a career in international human rights work. She enrolled in the Harvard International Human Rights Clinic (IHRC), conducting research and advocacy for its West Africa projects as a student. Her positive experience with the IHRC led her to pursue a Frank Knox Memorial Traveling Fellowship in London, where she studied African politics for a year while volunteering at Amnesty International. Her experience there was so fulfilling that she applied for and received a Satter Fellowship to return to the organization as a legal fellow the following summer.
Ossom's Satter Fellowship allowed her to research the national justice systems of Sierra Leone and Ghana. Living and working in both countries, she interviewed government officials and local legal experts to outline the domestic legal framework for trying crimes under international law in their national courts. Amnesty International uses the reports Ossom drafted as part of its national and international advocacy.
Ossom's experience at Amnesty International led to her current position at the Leitner Center, where she spends most of her time organizing research and logistics for an overseas documentation project, meeting with students, and coordinating a speaker series on international human rights law. Ossom takes pleasure in working directly with students and connecting them to other professionals that work in human rights law. She also appreciates that her job allows her to travel abroad frequently; she enjoys adjusting to other cultures and environments and loves learning how the people in other countries live their lives.
Ossom recently had the opportunity to teach a seminar on disability rights for a select group of students preparing to research access to education for people with disabilities in Rwanda. This experience was particularly rewarding because it allowed her to combine her passion for student mentoring with her desire to work directly with communities suffering from human rights abuses and amplify their voice.
Ossom also advises law students to think of each job as a learning experience and to view their career development as a lifelong journey. Ossom emphasizes that students today will likely take many different jobs in a variety of practice areas over the course of their careers, and may not find the job that is the right fit for them immediately after law school. She also advises that students take advantage of any opportunities to reach out to people who work in their interest areas. For example, students should go to speaker events or lunch talks given by professionals who work in their field of interest and shouldn't hesitate to approach the speaker afterwards to make connections and learn more about their work. In fact, Ossom recommends that you email interesting speakers after the event both to thank them for speaking and to stay abreast of relevant opportunities as you begin your career.
Ossom notes that without significant field experience, entry-level positions or opportunities for recent graduates in international law are limited. Participation in clinics and extracurricular activities, such as the Human Rights Journal, will go a long way in strengthening your resume for potential employers after law school. Finally, Ossom reminds students that they should pursue work that they truly want to do, and not to hesitate to give interesting opportunities a try.

Alumni Spotlight: Michael Bahar '02 – General Counsel to the Minority Staff of the House Select Committee on Intelligence
February 20, 2014 | 4 Comments
Working as the General Counsel to the Minority Staff of the House Select Committee on Intelligence gives Michael Bahar '02 the opportunity to contribute to our country's national security mission on a daily basis. As the grandson of Holocaust survivors, Bahar knew he wanted to pursue a career in public service from an early age.
When Bahar first arrived at HLS in 1999, he explored a variety of opportunities available to students. He enrolled in the Prisoners Legal Assistance Project, became involved in the Ethics Law and Biotechnology Society (ELAB), directed the Parody, and served as a Teaching Fellow at Harvard College. Shortly after 9/11, during Bahar's 3L year, security law issues rose to the top of the national agenda. Bahar chose national security law as a path to public service. "I was always interested in military service," he says. "With events at the time, national security work seemed like the most tangible way to directly serve the public."
Before he graduated from HLS, Bahar was commissioned into the United States Navy Judge Advocate General's Corps (JAG). He began basic training the morning after he sat for the New York State bar exam. While waiting for his Active Duty service to begin, Bahar was a Litigation Associate at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton, & Garrison LLP in NY City for ten months. His first JAG Corps post was as a criminal prosecutor in Jacksonville, Florida. Bahar then deployed to the Persian Gulf and the Horn of Africa as the Navy lawyer for the USS Nassau Strike Group, where he advised on the law of naval operations and conducted anti-piracy operations. Bahar was later stationed twice at the Pentagon, first serving as Aide to the Deputy Judge Advocate General of the Navy and then as Deputy Legal Counsel to the Vice Chief of Naval Operations, both times working administrative law issues. He was then stationed in Virginia Beach with Naval Special Warfare Development Group, during which time he found himself jumping out of planes and advising on cutting edge legal issues involving the use of force.
Bahar's time with the SEALs was cut short by a call to work at the White House. Between 2010 and 2012, Bahar served as Deputy Legal Advisor to the White House's National Security Staff. Bahar advised President Obama's National Security team on a broad array of issues, including foreign relations law, presidential emergency and war powers, intelligence law, information safeguarding and security, ethics, and congressional oversight. He weighed in on the executive response to some of the most pressing events in recent years, including the 2011 Egyptian Revolution, the Fukushima nuclear disaster, and the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill. Dealing with such a wide range of issues gave Bahar broad expertise.
Less than two weeks after leaving the White House, Bahar deployed to Afghanistan. There, he advised a Special Operations Task Force, working closely with his Afghan counterparts to improve their special operations systems.
Bahar left Active Duty in 2012 for his current position as General Counsel to the Minority Staff of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. He describes leaving Active Duty as a very difficult career decision, but he enjoys being in the Reserves. In his current position, Bahar provides legal advice to Democratic committee members charged with overseeing seventeen elements of the U.S. intelligence community. As in his previous positions, Bahar does not shy away from hot-button national security challenges. His committee has recently addressed terrorism in North Africa, cybersecurity issues in U.S.-China relations, and the leaks to the NSA programs.
Bahar recommends that HLS students interested in national security work consider joining the military. "It's the best way to break into the field," he argues, "because military duty will help you build much needed credibility and substantive expertise. "National security is a small, specialized field, and it's based largely on trust," Bahar says. Although entering such a tight-knit field can be difficult, Bahar encourages students to relentlessly pursue opportunities because "once you're in, it is far easier to move within the field–the first national security job you find will not be your last." And there are many personal and professional rewards. "Your work will always be fascinating, important and humbling," Bahar remarks.

Alumni Spotlight: Allison Elgart '05, Legal Director at the Equal Justice Society
January 30, 2014 | 1 Comment
Allison Elgart '05 currently serves as the Legal Director of Equal Justice Society (EJS), a nonprofit focused on establishing more safeguards and legal protections against racial discrimination. Elgart's work in impact litigation, education, and community organizing is central to achieving EJS' mission. EJS works to challenge the Intent Standard, which requires that the complainant in discrimination cases prove that the defendant intentionally discriminated against the plaintiff. Since EJS believes that bias is often unconscious, structural, and unintentional, they argue that plaintiffs should not have to prove intent.
While Elgart always knew she wanted to pursue public interest work, she found a passion for civil rights law at HLS. By her 3L year, Elgart was the Editor-in-Chief of the Harvard Civil Rights- Civil Liberties Law Review and a member of the Harvard Legal Aid Bureau. "My interests were broad, but I had a pretty good sense I wanted to pursue employment, housing, education, or immigrant rights law," she says.
After a year-long judicial clerkship, Elgart began work as an Associate at Lieff, Cabraser, Heimann & Bernstein, LLP, a national plaintiff's firm. There, she litigated class action employment discrimination and consumer protection cases on behalf of employees and consumers. Elgart highly recommends working at a private public interest firm to students interested in pursuing civil rights law. "The valuable litigation experience you earn will take you a long way," she says.
After almost five years at Lieff Cabraser, Elgart was interested in finding a position where she could apply the litigation skills she learned at Lieff to a mission-driven nonprofit organization focused on issues of racial justice. She found a posting for a Supervising Attorney position at Equal Justice Society in OPIA's weekly Alumni Jobs Digest e-mail. EJS seemed like a good fit; Elgart wanted to work in an organization that partnered with leading racial justice or civil rights groups and had a collaborative, dedicated staff. EJS is driven by a "mission to change constitutional law so that it better protects people of color." Elgart started as a Supervising Staff Attorney and then became the Legal Director. Her day-to-day duties include meeting with allied civil rights organizations, performing legal research and writing or editing memos or briefs, and strategizing about legal theories to challenge the intent doctrine. As a supervisor, Elgart oversees young attorneys and law clerks. "Mentoring is one of the most rewarding parts of my job," she says. "I enjoy helping attorneys who are deeply committed to civil rights move along on their career paths."
Elgart's advice for HLS students and alumni interested in civil rights is to demonstrate to potential employers that they are passionate about the field. "Do a one or two year fellowship at a nonprofit. Semester-long internships and clinics are also great. Even if you are already at a corporate firm, take on the pro bono cases available and volunteer in your free time," she advises. Elgart also stresses the importance of networking and informational interviews. Talking to practicing civil rights attorneys and asking them about their experience will help you learn how to succeed in your job search, she says. Lastly, Elgart argues that making a good impression at a job interview is essential. "That's how applicants stand out in my mind," she says. "Let your enthusiasm, commitment, and passion for civil rights come across."

Human Rights and Impact Litigation at the Legal Resources Centre in South Africa
January 16, 2014 | Leave a Comment
Last summer, Caroline Sacerdote worked for the Legal Resources Centre ("LRC") in South Africa. Most of her time was spent working on domestic impact litigation, but she also had the opportunity to work in international human rights. Caroline's summer at the LRC showed her how the law can be used as a tool to solve social problems.
At the LRC, Caroline worked closely with an attorney focused on women's and children's rights. She conducted legal research and drafted memoranda on topics including indigency law and special schools. Caroline carried out fact-finding, creating a questionnaire to discover how policies were being implemented, and did follow-up interviews with community stakeholders. Her research uncovered problems with the implementation of laws, and she was able to see how impact litigation begins and discuss strategies for how to tackle problems.
Caroline also analyzed testimony for the Marikana Commission, which is mandated to investigate the events at the Lonmin Mine, where 34 people were killed and more than 70 people were injured during a strike in 2012. She synthesized and coded testimony for the attorneys to use in their closing arguments. Additionally, Caroline participated in a civil society meeting critiquing South Africa's draft report on women's rights for the Maputo Protocol and worked on both the LRC's commentary and shadow report.
At HLS, Caroline has sought ways to develop her knowledge on a variety of public interest issues, with an emphasis on gender and sexuality. Her work at the LRC helped narrow her focus to LGBTQIA and reproductive rights issues. It also solidified her desire to work in impact litigation. An aspect of the LRC's work that Caroline particularly admired is how connected the Centre is with the people it serves.
Caroline enjoyed working at the LRC. The staff was extremely driven but the atmosphere was friendly, casual, and non-hierarchical. She was given leeway to manage her own workload, and her supervising attorney provided ample feedback on her work. She enjoyed sitting in the copy room with another intern and a legal researcher. Instead of being a distraction, Caroline liked the steady flow of people, which allowed her to get to know her co-workers very well.
One of the best parts about working in South Africa is the newness of the country's constitution. The jurisprudence is so new, and there is a strong focus on human rights issues embedded directly within the constitution.
Caroline would recommend the LRC for anybody interested in substantive public interest issues, international law, and/or impact litigation. She was able to get hands-on experience that has inspired her to pursue impact litigation as a career. This summer, Caroline will be interning with the Center for Reproductive Rights in New York as a Summer Ford Fellow.

Building a Career in Environmental Law
December 12, 2013 | 1 Comment
Meg Holden, a 3L, is deeply interested in environmental law, which she hopes to build into a career in environmental litigation and policy work. Prior to attending law school, Meg worked for two years for an environmental NGO in New Delhi, India. She came to law school in large part to prepare for a career focused on protecting the environment, both at home and abroad.
Last summer, Meg interned at the National Resources Defense Council (NRDC) in Washington, D.C., where she supported the organization's environmental litigation and broader policy efforts. Meg loved her experience; she particularly enjoyed the autonomy that she was given in determining her areas of focus, as well as the diversity of her assignments (her work covered a wide variety of topics related to climate change and international policy). One of the highlights of her internship was helping to research/write a brief for a case before the U.S. Supreme Court.
During her 1L summer, Meg worked in the Environmental Crimes Section of the U.S. Department of Justice. Throughout the summer, she worked on criminal litigation in which the defendants, typically corporations, had broken laws aimed at protecting ecological and wildlife resources. Meg really enjoyed the work and found that it provided her with a more nuanced appreciation for the demands of environmental litigation. She particularly valued the opportunity to work on substantive assignments alongside a team of such high-caliber attorneys.
As someone planning a career in litigation, Meg found her 1L summer experience in litigation particularly valuable. She also underscores how important it is to network before, during and after 1L summer.
Meg will be clerking in Washington, D.C. next year and eventually hopes to continue to work on environmental litigation and policy.

HLS alum and Wasserstein Fellow Steven Choi honored for advocacy work
December 6, 2013 | Leave a Comment
Steven Choi '04, Executive Director for the New York Immigration Coalition, was honored at the 2013 Felix A. Fisherman Awards Luncheon on Nov. 21. The award recognized his "progressive advocacy work and commitment to helping others in need at the House of the New York City Bar Association in Manhattan."
An Introduction to Litigation at the Department of Justice's Criminal Division – Fraud Section
December 5, 2013 | Leave a Comment
Last summer, 2L Steven Green worked at the U.S. Department of Justice in the Criminal Division's Fraud Section. In this role, Steven worked on a variety of projects, ranging from legal research and writing to working on search warrant affidavits and other trial-related documents. He also had the opportunity to work on international legal assistance requests regarding investigation materials.
The Fraud section allowed Steven to combine his interests in criminal law, litigation, international law and investigative work. Steven's summer experience shaped his future plans by reinforcing his desire to pursue a career in litigation, and further exposed him to the benefits of federal government work.
The Fraud Section accepts about a dozen interns every summer, creating a collegial and collaborative atmosphere among the intern class. Each intern is assigned a mentor attorney who assigns projects, so the work Steven did closely tracked the needs of his mentor. The atmosphere of the Fraud section was collegial and cordial while also being fast-paced and hard-working. The hours were manageable and allowed for an enjoyable summer experience.
In addition to informing his future career plans, Steven's experience at DOJ also helped improve his legal research and writing skills. These skills have come in handy back at HLS when, for example, he is assisting a professor with research or editing a journal article for grammar and bluebook errors.
Steven recommends the Fraud Section at DOJ for anyone looking "to do high-level, interesting legal work with a real sense of purpose and an enjoyable atmosphere." He recommends the experience for anyone interested in litigation, corporate, or other areas of the law, because the Section covers a wide range of interests by allowing interns to pursue criminal litigation involving business matters.

Alumni Spotlight: Practicing human rights law in Europe
December 4, 2013 | Leave a Comment
Until recently Emma Fenelon was a Legal Project Manager at the AIRE Centre (Centre for Advice on Individual Rights in Europe). She hails from Ireland and earned her undergraduate law degree at Trinity College Dublin. As a teenager Fenelon was drawn to Law because she enjoyed debate and had read about the efforts of figures such as former President of Ireland, Mary Robinson and Senator David Norris, and how they had used law as a tool for progressive social change. During her first summer of undergraduate study, she interned with a senator in Dublin which developed her interest in public policy and spent much of her time at Trinity involved in the College Historical Society, the University's oldest debating student society. A year spent on exchange at Washington and Lee University School of Law in Virginia led to an interest in international criminal law and a summer interning at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in the Hague on the defence team of Radovan Karadzic. This experience made Fenelon realize that she would rather work with everyday public interest law than mass atrocities.
After completing her degree at Trinity, Fenelon spent a year earning her LL.M at Harvard Law School, where she focused on international human rights and the law relating to social movements, studying under Professors Philip Alston, Lani Guinier and Catherine MacKinnon. In addition her experience as a member of the the International Human Rights Clinic, and the supervision of Former Professor James Cavallaro was particularly influential. The summer after receiving her degree she worked on an Irish Presidential campaign and was a legal trainee at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France. This traineeship was a formative experience; Fenelon's interest in European Convention law deepened, and she developed experience that proved useful in her first job at the AIRE Centre a London-based nonprofit that protects vulnerable and marginalised migrants by assisting them in asserting their European Union legal rights, providing legal advice, and representing them before domestic and international Courts.
Funded by HLS, Fenelon joined the AIRE Centre as a Satter Human Rights Fellow and spent her first year working on the Centre's projects in the Balkans. She was responsible for implementing projects in Serbia and Montenegro, including rule of law projects designed to train judges, prosecutors, and other legal professionals in human rights law, especially the European Convention on Human Rights. The following year Fenelon became a staff member, which involved working for the Center's advice service, which provides free advice on EU law in relation to immigration and welfare benefits. In addition to written advice, Fenelon represented low-income, marginalized clients before domestic tribunals and, when under the supervision of the Legal Director, at the European Court of Human Rights. During her second year at the AIRE Center Fenelon also became a Legal Project Manager. In this role she works to identify, condemn, and eliminate discrimination against ethnic minorities in the UK and to empower those minorities, particularly members of the Roma community.
Fenelon spends a lot of time with clients, and finds that working with and on behalf of those who would otherwise be unable to afford legal advice is the favorite part of her job. Fenelon also values the opportunity to make a deeper impact by bringing strategic cases before domestic and international courts; because the Center receives many requests for assistance, it has a comprehensive understanding of the systemic legal problems faced by vulnerable migrants and can select strategic cases to advocate for policy change. During the past few years, working on EU law has allowed Fenelon to engage directly with the immigration debate, a particularly controversial issue in the UK and throughout the Continent.
This September, Fenelon left the AIRE Center for the House of Lords, where she became a Parliamentary Legal Officer for Lord Anthony Lester, a Liberal Democrat Peer who often works on human rights matters. Fenelon hopes that this new position will teach her about the machinery of the legislative process and deepen her knowledge of extra-legal advocacy. Moving forward she plans to become a barrister and continue to work on public interest issues, including human rights and immigration.
Fenelon advises students planning public interest careers to talk to as many people as possible in their areas of interest; these informational conversations and informal chats allow students to get a feel for whether they are suited to particular kinds of work. Those hoping to work for NGOs should realize that paid entry-level jobs are extremely difficult to come by, so it is important to be creative about how to make oneself a valuable, attractive potential hire. Students should apply for fellowships and should choose their internships strategically to maximize the likelihood that they will lead to regular employment. Last but not least, Fenelon encourages students to be open-minded about their early career steps. While she could not have foreseen that she would work in immigration and EU law, she loves her work and the opportunity to both help individual clients and pursue international cases with a broader impact.

Grassroots Organizing and Immigration Reform in Oakland, CA
November 27, 2013 | 4 Comments
Current 3L Abbey Marr spent her summer working at the National Domestic Workers Alliance (NWDA) in Oakland, CA. The NDWA and its 45 affiliate organizations advocate for "respect, recognition and inclusion in labor protections for domestic workers."
After working in impact litigation on reproductive rights and education issues, Abbey sought out an environment that emphasized grassroots organizing. At the NDWA, she found a small, innovative umbrella organization consisting of organizers, policy and media staff, and several undergraduate and graduate policy interns. Although at the time the NDWA did not have any attorneys, they may bring on a lawyer soon.
Abbey split her time between researching state labor laws and joining a national campaign around immigration reform. As many states have been pushing for new labor legislation to include domestic workers, the NDWA needed a comprehensive sense of the existing laws. For legal supervision, she turned to the attorneys at the National Employment Law Project, who partner with the NDWA. While working on the "We Belong Together" immigration reform campaign, Abbey analyzed aspects of the proposed bill through a gender lens and suggested adjustments to the legislation to better serve women specifically.
Abbey described the NDWA's Oakland office as community-based, casual, flexible, fun, and occasionally chaotic. NDWA shares its space with one of its affiliate groups, whose members were often coming in and out of the office, and holding English or yoga classes. Abbey appreciated that she could easily talk to domestic workers who were convening at the office, and she sought their input on the proposed nationwide bills that she was analyzing. Although many of the staff members were traveling for the immigration reform campaign throughout the summer, Abbey said she received good project-based supervision from the NDWA staff and National Employment Law Project attorneys.
As the only legal intern, Abbey warns that students in won't get experience in legal representation at the NDWA. But she spoke highly of the NDWA internship for students who want to see how lawyers and organizers work together. NDWA is a dynamic organization that is part of a rapidly growing movement, and Abbey recommends this position for students interested in being at the forefront of organizing low-wage workers.

Exploring Education Law in State Government
November 21, 2013 | 2 Comments
Alison Tong, now a 2L, spent last summer at the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE). She worked in Malden, MA at the Department's Office of Legal Counsel.
Alison was drawn to this internship largely because she wanted to learn more about public interest law. She had also developed a specific interest in education after tutoring and teaching in community education settings. After spending time on OPIA's internship databases and reading previous interns' glowing reviews, Alison decided to apply to DESE.
Alison reports that she had a phenomenal experience at DESE. The Office of Legal Counsel is a small team, and she was one of only three interns. This afforded her many opportunities to get to know the staff members and to learn from their work. She speaks particularly highly of her supervisor, who made it a point to ensure that Alison was getting to work on projects that interested her and was being exposed to a variety of tasks.
The Office of Legal Counsel has a wide scope of responsibilities as the department's in-house counsel, but Alison focused on a few projects this summer. She most enjoyed writing a procedural manual on how to conduct investigations on teachers' licensure revocations because it allowed her to learn about the entire investigative process, from start to finish, and because she knows it will be useful to future staff members and interns. Alison also reviewed collaborative agreements between school districts and put her LRW skills to work in a variety of legal research projects.
Alison will work at a law firm in New York City next summer, but she plans to keep the door open to working in the education field again. She highly recommends an internship at DESE to students looking for substantive work and caring mentors.

Reforming Labor Law
Block, Richard N., USA TODAY
If the National Labor Relations Board is reorganized, "Employers, unions, and employees can have confidence that each will receive a fair hearing, regardless of which political party is in control of the reins of government."
The 1997 teamsters' strike against United Parcel Service (UPS) was heralded as a sign of the resurgence of unionism in the U.S. The union appeared to have struck over a popular issue--part-time work--and it seemed to have the support of the public. The strike ended in what looked like a triumph for the Teamsters and organized labor.
After the strike, however, unionism returned to bleak reality. Department of Labor data released in January, 1998, showed another year of declining unionization in the U.S. Of all employees over the age of 16, 14.1% were union members in 1997, down from roughly 32% in 1954. Private-sector union membership in 1997 was at 9.8%, below what it was in the 1920s, prior to the passage of any legislation protecting the rights of employees to unionize. While it is true that unionism in many developed market economies has been declining in recent years, the drop in the U.S. is remarkable for its longevity, consistency, and perseverance.
While many reasons have been advanced for the long-term decline--such as global competition, improved human resource management techniques, unresponsive unions, and the increase in legislation protecting individuals--trade unionists and many neutral observers believe that the evolution of labor law under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) is a major contributor. The potential for delays in conducting union representation elections and obtaining employer compliance with National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) orders, the near monopoly of access to employees by employers during union organizing campaigns, remedies that do not deter labor law violators, and employer permanent replacement of strikers have made it difficult for unions to organize and to bargain. Union-supported attempts in 1977-78, 1991, and 1993 to address some or all of these problems legislatively were thwarted by Republican-led filibusters in the Senate.
Given this situation, one would expect the management community to be quite satisfied with the state of labor law in the U.S. Yet, this is not the case. Non-union employers say that the law prevents them from establishing employee participation plans even when their workers have no desire to be unionized. Business argues that the structure and process of investigating and deciding unfair labor practice charges harm small firms that are unable to afford the requisite legal representation when such an accusation is filed against them. Employer advocates point out that the investigation and prosecution of the case are done at public expense, rather than billed to the charging party, while the employer must bear its own legal costs. They maintain that small employers are unable to afford the back pay liability when the NLRB takes an excessive amount of time to decide cases involving unlawful discharge. Employers contend that they are denied the right to argue before the NLRB that a union representation election should be in several of its facilities, rather than in a single one. Finally, they criticize a 1995 U.S. Supreme Court ruling which extended the protection of labor law to job applicants and employees who also are paid union organizers ("salts").
These concerns have been manifested in the legislative process. In 1996, the appropriation bill passed by the House of Representatives prohibited the NLRB from spending funds to adopt a single facility rule. Legislation that would have made it lawful for nonunion employers to establish employee participation plans passed both houses of Congress in 1996, but was vetoed by Pres. Clinton. In the spring of 1998, the House, by a vote of 202-200, passed legislation that would have addressed other employer-expressed concerns.

When to visit the Okavango
Wildlife does vary considerably across the delta at different times of the year, however, peak season is between the dry months of July to October, when wildlife congregates around water sources and the bush is thinner, making animals more visible. However, if you're a keen birder and like trees, November – March is the time to go. May and June are great if you want to visit when it's a little quieter, and are happy to look a little harder for your animals. Some camps close over the rainy season between December and March.

Exactly what I was hoping for! I was very hesitant to order a jacket online, especially for my very picky 14 year old. This jacket was perfect in every way! It looked exactly like it was pictured online, no flaws, no surprises.

Jacket is extremely warm on it's own right, even without a shell exterior. If around pets, hair gets easily trapped in the fury exterior of the jacket. Great for short winter commutes. It is thicker than it looks in a picture.

I guess I didn't know what "high loft fleece" was - this doesn't look like normal fleece, much more fluffy. Also insides tend to cling to my shirts, making it somewhat of a pain to put on - I have to hold my sleeves down. Once it's on, its comfortable and warm, not sure I would have bought it if I saw it and tried it on in a store, but I'll keep it and I wear it almost everday. I was looking for something I could wear during long car drives that wouldn't be too bulkly and yet would keep me warm while the car heated up and wouldn't be too hot once it did warm up - this fits that perfectly.
