Robert Olian works primarily on contested matters involving compliance and civil or criminal enforcement proceedings. Mr Olian also has experience in managing complex legal projects, such as environmental impact statement proceedings and the siting of new facilities in environmentally sensitive areas.
Mr Olian is a fellow in the American College of Environmental Lawyers, and is admitted to the Trial Bar in the Northern District of Illinois. He belongs to various environmental committees or sections of the Chicago and American bar associations and has written and lectured on a variety of topics related to environmental litigation. He headed Sidley's Chicago environmental practice group and was co-leader of the firm's national environmental practice from 1994-2014.
Mr Olian's representations include: a refinery in federal class action and state court jury trial alleging property value diminution resulting from underground contaminant migration; a refinery in negotiations with state and local governments to establish parameters for brownfields redevelopment of refinery property; a waste disposal company in class action jury trial alleging health impacts (including cancer), fear of cancer, and property value diminution; and two industrial clients in EPA debarment proceedings arising out of criminal pleas to violation of environmental laws. On appeal of an adverse decision for one client, the debarment period was halved; a pre-decision presentation on behalf of the other client led to an EPA decision not to pursue discretionary debarment of the client or its exchange-listed parent.
Mr Olian joined Sidley upon graduating from Harvard Law School and the Harvard Kennedy School in 1977. Admissions include: US Court of Appeals; various US district courts; and Illinois.

BlizzCon 2009 Opening Ceremony liveblog
Here we go again with another liveblog kiddos. This time it's BlizzCon 2009.
Be sure and come back to this space for the Opening Ceremony of BlizzCon, and maybe, just maybe we will hear more about the rumored Cataclysm expansion for World of Warcraft, updates on StarCraft II and Diablo III – and who knows – Blizzard may announce its secret MMO.
One can only dream.
The schedule says that doors open for attendees around 10:00am PST/1:00pm EST – that's around 6:00pm for the UK and things will get started around 11:30 PST/2:30 EST/7:30 UK.
So, throw on a pot of coffee and join us for up-to-the-minute liveblogging of the Opening Ceremony after the break.
Sometimes we include links to online retail stores. If you click on one and make a purchase we may receive a small commission. For more information, go here.


text: When you send notifications of problems on a site, could you include a link to the updates page? I have several sites that I manage and it would save me a lot of time and make it much more likely that I will address the issue when it crops up rather than putting it off. Typing in a URL on my smartphone is slow enough that having a link in the email would be loads faster.

USDA's research agencies have some GAO recommendations for improvement. (Stock image)
The United States Department of Agriculture's two principal research agencies need to strengthen collaborative planning and reduce duplication in the face of increasingly tight budgets, according to a Government Accountability Office study released in April.
The study was the culmination of a lengthy investigation into USDA's internal and external research agencies – the Agricultural Research Service (ARS) and the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), respectively – which both play critical roles in supporting agricultural science and human nutrition. The agencies collectively spend close to $1.2 billion annually. USDA economists estimate that each dollar spent on public agricultural research returns an estimated $10 in benefits to the economy, with even greater returns predicted by university researchers.
Read the report
In the past, the agencies have made use of existing safeguards on the books to avoid potentially duplicative projects, including panels of independent external scientists who review projects, professional norms like peer reviews and USDA's Current Research Information System (CRIS), a database containing project-level information about all ongoing and completed research projects.
Yet GAO found several shortcomings that limit the effectiveness of existing safeguards against duplicative efforts. Chief among them is outdated information, with information in CRIS on ARS projects typically a minimum of six months out of date, undermining the effectiveness of the database.
In addition, GAO said one-third of NIFA's competitive grants are not subject to CRIS duplication checks. NIFA does not do its own research, but gathers it by awarding grants to individuals, institutions, and organizations, through increased education to improve scientific and agricultural literacy, and through its extension networks.
Finally, GAO found that high-level collaborative planning processes could be "more systematic to make the best use of limited agricultural research resources," suggesting joint meetings between department heads on at least an annual basis.
"The nation's increasingly tight budget environment underscores the need for federal research agencies to set priorities carefully and make effective use of limited research funding," the report states. "At both ARS and NIFA, national program leaders are responsible for setting the agencies' research priorities; obtaining input from stakeholders in industry, academia, and elsewhere; and identifying gaps in agricultural research. As agency budgets continue to tighten, pressure increases on program leaders to ensure that dollars go to the highest-priority activities and that research projects are complementary, rather than unnecessarily duplicative."
Other recommendations made by GAO in the report were generally agreed to by USDA, which cited overall agency benefits for three of the four total recommendations.
GAO recommended ARS issue formal written guidance that it should update research project data "at least quarterly" to ensure new projects aren't duplications, and directed NIFA to instruct its national program leader ensure staff check the entirety of its competitive grant awards against CRIS for duplicative efforts. GAO also instructed USDA to investigate whether other systems might be more effective and efficient than CRIS and revise its internal methods for identifying duplicative research projects.

I found some help from the link below but was hoping someone could clarify step by step instructions for me since I have no idea at all what I am doing. How do I make a "symlink"? Or, how do I change the wp_options table? I have no experience in doing this type of thing, so please forgive my ignorance.
Also, I do have a backup of my database....if that changes/helps things. Any help is appreciated:)

Welcome to the Gene Therapy Center
Richard Jude Samulski, Director
The University of North Carolina School of Medicine created the Gene Therapy Center in 1996 with the goal of merging molecular genetics research with healthcare delivery. The Gene Therapy Center provides important resources to academic investigators through two core facilities created to support preclinical and clinical gene therapy studies. These facilities, the Vector Core and the Human Applications Laboratories, were created to ensure that investigators would have promising gene vectors available in the quality and quantities needed for preclinical or clinical studies. Research in the laboratory has centered on the molecular biology of adeno-associated virus (AAV) in order to exploit the unique features of this virus to develop an efficient viral vector system for use in human gene therapy. Continued efforts in understanding the mechanism of viral replication and integration for both wild-type and recombinant AAV are being pursued in order to create more efficient gene transfer vectors. The ultimate goal of the Gene Therapy Center is to facilitate the progression and translation of gene therapy research from the laboratory bench into Phase I clinical trials for the treatment of human disease.

The power status dropdown widget in ubuntu 9.04 disappeared. I'm referring to the one in the corner which (when pidgin is installed) displays user status, and has a dropdown to shut down, suspend, hibernate, etc. The system menu still contains commands to do this, but I'd prefer to use the dropdown in the corner.
How can I get it back?
Edit: The fix was to reset the panels with this command:
gconftool-2 --shutdown && rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel && pkill gnome-panel

An error has occurred; the feed is probably down. Try again later
I have tried the Feedburner and original feeds for all of them. Still can't get them to work.

Not so goodI tried many time following instruction, but lots of bubble. Either I don't know how to do it or it is a product failure. I don't have time to return it. So, I guess I am going to buy another one from local retail store.

Good protectionAll scratchguard screen guards I've bought so far have served their purpose well. Even this one is well cut out and the edges line up perfectly with the phone. Application wasn't a breeze since the screen size of the phone is quite large but I managed to get it on without any air bubbles. I can't comment on whether these can be removed and added back later since I haven't done so myseld. I had to get another one because the first one got a good scratch thanks to a screw driver landing straight on the screen. It blew a nice hole in the screen guard but the screen wasn't damaged at all. Atleast … (Expand)

Welcome to the PSD Grade 1 Common Core Curriculum ProjectIn first grade, students build on the reading, writing, listening, and speaking that they practiced in kindergarten. As in kindergarten, these units include a section devoted to the CCSS reading foundations. While not a comprehensive reading program, this pacing guide provides guidance for instruction in print concepts, phonological awareness, phonics, word recognition, fluency and some of the writing and language skills. Students should enter first grade with basic decoding skills and familiarity with a range of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. As their reading and writing skills become more advanced, they begin to apply their knowledge to new topics and situations. are exposed to a rich variety "read-aloud" stories, nonfiction, and poems, including stories about animals, fables and other life lessons, stories and nonfiction accounts about contributors to America, multicultural versions of the "Cinderella" tale, and more. They have opportunities to draw interesting connections between literature and other subjects: for example, in the unit "Winds of Change," they consider changes in nature as well as changes in characters' feelings. They explore the arts throughout the year: in one unit they look at paintings by Matisse, and in another they compare masks from around the world. They start to produce writing—journal entries, brief descriptions, opinion pieces, and stories—and to collaborate on simple research projects (such as finding out about an animal). They learn to create short books with a table of contents and numbered pages. By the end of first grade, they are able to sound out and recognize many one-syllable and multisyllabic words, and they have a strong repertoire of sight words.

Research Institution:
AbstractPhased-array radar employing wideband digital beamforming (DBF) offers the potential for detecting and tracking incoming cruise missiles while defeating electronic countermeasures such as chaff, jamming and anti-reflective coatings. A wide instantaneousradar bandwidth is essential for defeating these threats, resulting in improved range resolution and target signature. Digital beamforming may be used to defeat radar jammers by forming precise beams and steering receive nulls in the direction of hostilejammers. DBF may be used on transmit to improve target-to-clutter ratio and reduce the spillover of transmit energy in undesired directions. This wideband DBF approach also lends itself to the use of digital transmit waveforms, which may be used as afurther technique for defeating countermeasures.This SBIR effort will leverage Applied Radar's on-going work in the DBF area and direct it towards missile defense applications of vital importance to US national security. Specifically, we will research ways of significantly improving the bandwidth overthe current state-of-the-art. Our existing MMIC-based analog front-ends are sufficiently wideband. The main bandwidth bottleneck is in the real-time digital data acquisition and DBF processing. We will investigate techniques that move the data acquisitioncloser to the radar antenna array, resulting in improved performance and reduced cost. DBF technology will enable low-cost phased-array radar with better performance than currently available analog phased-array systems. This wideband DBF phased-array radar is directly applicable to current MDA threats. Applied Radar Inc. also has on-goingDBF work with the US Air Force and US Army that could directly benefit from advancements in the wideband DBF processing. Other DoD applications include space-based radar and communication systems, UAV radars, and conformal aircraft antennas. There are alsoa number of commercial applications including cellular base station antennas, commercial satellite communications and ATC radars that would benefit from advancements in DBF array technology.

Plaits: The Perfect Braids For All Hair Lengths
Plaits are a red carpet favourite right now and whatever your hair length, face shape and style, there will be one to suit you.
Maybe your fringe is playing up, you need to tackle a festival or holiday-related bad hair day, or you just want to keep your hair out of your face? Rock a classic boho-look halo braid, like Poppy Delevingne and Florence Welch, for a low-maintenence look or for something a little more spesh, try Anna Friel's double fishtail halo plaits.
Or is your plaited look for the evening? French plaits have been big on the red carpet, with Jessica Stam and Cara Delevingne working them with cocktail dresses. Fishtail plaits, too, are a favourite of the most glamorous stars, with Olivia Palermo regularly working them into her looks.
The award for the most impressive plaited hairstyle goes to Diane Kruger for her intricate 'do at the Oscars, though Blake Lively might have just stolen her crown for 2015 with this amazing braid, by Rod Ordega. Wow.
Check it out, and all the hottest celebrity plait ideas here...

The Hood College History Department offers a wide array of fascinating courses about the human past, covering periods and subjects from the ancient world through recent American and global topics. Our faculty members enjoy working closely with students in small classes, research projects, internships, and independent study projects.
As a liberal-arts discipline, the study of history prepares students for life and work by training them in critical thinking, research, information literacy, writing, argumentation, and presentation skills. While many history students go on to work in education, museums, or other historical fields, many others find their careers in law, government, business, the media, and the nonprofit sector. Historical study is a broad, flexible training that fits a person for all sorts of roles in a rapidly changing world and workplace.
At Hood, our history students often explore historical topics not only in the classroom but also at local worksites, through internships at such locations as Frederick Historical Society, Harper's Ferry National Historical Park, the Walters Art Museum, the Monocacy Battlefield, the Schifferstadt Architectural Museum, or the National Museum of Civil War Medicine.
For complete departmental information in our online catalog, click here.
Through an integration of the liberal arts and the professions, Hood College provides an education that empowers students to use their hearts, minds and hands to meet personal, professional and global challenges and to lead purposeful lives of responsibility, leadership, service and civic engagement.

Oil men have made a real mess
Published: Thursday, May 18, 2006 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, May 18, 2006 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: It's time to put these oil execs under oath and get to the root of their record profits while we pay record high prices. We need the help of Congress, because with oil men at the highest levels of the White House administration, they will offer only lip service to the "common man" while taking in record profits of their own in the back door.
This all reeks of the corruption, greed and selling out of the U.S. citizenry that this administration has made their top priority. While you're at it, impeach the president, vice president and bring them and the secretary of defense up on war crimes charges for the murder of hundreds of thousands of innocents in an unjust war in Iraq.

I followed Sernarama's suggestion for individual turnovers because I needed an appetizer recipe using squash to bring to a party-Many people won't touch squash if you dared them, but because these were individual turnovers-they popped them in thier mouths and were pleasantly suprised! "I can't believe this is squash-I usually hate squash" was the most common comment. They were the suprise hit of the night
I went on a Greek rampage this week. I made this in individual turnovers to wow my family with something different. The grating was quite labor intensive, I think next time, if I have the time I will try baking it, then scraping. At any rate, it was a huge hit. I served it with Mama's Moussaka one night. I froze half a batch and served them another night with spankorizo for a great meatless dinner!! Fantastic recipe!

The 'Yıldırım Camii' was built in 1382, together with a hamam and a madrasa, ordered by (the future sultan) Yıldırım Beyazıt, who was governor of the region at that time. 1382 was a moment of much building activity, for it is also the date the 'Yıldırım Camii' of Bolu was constructed. This 'Yıldırım Camii' is still Mudurnu's largest historic monument. It has been restored several times: in 1776, 1839, 1900, 1956 for certain (these dates are documented). The prayer hall is covered by a large dome, having a diameter of 19½ m. Its considerable weight is carried by massive walls, 1,60 m thick. The wall paintings were renewed recently in a 16th-17th century Ottoman style, called 'kalem işi' (= work of the pen/paintbrush). Correspondent: J.M.Criel, Antwerpen.

Does anyone know the name/author of the model theory paper where it's proven that you can define the $ < $ relation on $ (\mathbb{Q}, +, \cdot, 1, 0) $?
Every natural number is the sum of four squares, and so you can define the positive rational numbers as those of the form $(a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2)/(e^2+f^2+g^2+h^2)$, where the denominator is not zero, and this is expressible in your language. And the order is defined by $x\lt y\iff y-x$ is positive.

Sitting in his office in Chicago, Neil Bluhm, SugarHouse Casino's chairman, was so disturbed by the financial predictions coming from this week's hearings on a second Philadelphia casino that he flew in Wednesday evening to speak to the state Gaming Control Board himself.
"I felt I had to come down and tell them that if these numbers are right, they're going to have a mess on their hands," Bluhm said after Thursday's hearing.
Bluhm, a Chicago real estate investor who entered the casino industry more than 15 years ago, was referring to the projections of how much gambling revenue SugarHouse would lose if a second casino opened in Center City or South Philadelphia.

I tried the Backupwordpress plugin on a few of my blogs. My main domain is the 'domain' and all the other domains are subdirectory/addon domains.
When Backupwordpress ran and backed up the main domain,I thought it would just backup my 'wordpress files', but it backed up EVERYTHING!
My host shut me down until I could contact them and figure out why a backup was being run every 7 days of my entire site of almost 5GB (against the terms).
If you have a similar domain setup using addon domains be very careful about using this plugin!
I would have posted this in the plugin owners forum or contacted him directly, but there is no contact form and his forum registration doesn't work.

The University of
Otago is refusing to respond to criticism from a top lecturer
that it neglects teaching, but many of his comments have been
backed by the union representing academics.
Associate Prof Gordon Sanderson, who at Parliament on Tuesday
night received the country's ''supreme award'' for teaching
excellence, earlier hit out at the university for placing too
much emphasis on research, saying it was ''not very
enthusiastic about teaching''.
The co-president of the Otago University branch of the
Tertiary Education Union, Associate Prof Brent Lovelock,
yesterday backed many of Prof Sanderson's comments, saying
the union would like to see the university give teaching more
''There is a perception among our TEU academic members that
teaching is perhaps given less attention for purposes of
staff promotion and that the real focus is on their research
outputs,'' Prof Lovelock said.
The union agreed the way research was funded through the
Performance-Based Research Fund (PBRF) had diverted attention
away from teaching at many New Zealand universities.
''We have observed a reduction in non-research staff in some
departments, in order to appoint more research active staff.
This national refocus on PBRF has led to many excellent
teachers being lost,'' he said. The union supported a more
''balanced approach'' where teaching, research and service to
the university and community were ''valued and recognised''.
''The TEU strongly supports ways of making sure that good
quality teaching is not just encouraged but is rewarded when
it is present. Promotion should recognise people, such as
Prof Sanderson, who take time and effort in their teaching.''
The union recognised the value research could bring to
teaching and that it could make teaching ''more real and
''We would like to see more use of a range of ways to assess
lecturers' teaching rather than the current strong reliance
upon standard student surveys.
''We believe that lecturers who challenge their students, or
those who teach harder compulsory papers, or those who are
adopting innovative ways of teaching, must also be recognised
and rewarded through a fair system,'' he said.
A reader who commented on the online edition of yesterday's
story congratulated Prof Sanderson for speaking out and
brought up an example from the past year where the university
had laid off a ''magnificent'' teacher from the College of
Education because they did not engage in research.
An Otago University spokeswoman said the university did not
want to respond to any of Prof Sanderson's comments.
Meanwhile, the Southern District Health Board responded to
Prof Sanderson's comments it merely ''tolerated'' the School
of Medicine and did not take full advantage of it.
DHB chief executive Carole Heatly said in a short statement
the board ''highly'' valued its relationship with the School
of Medicine.
''We recognise the university allows us to recruit and retain
staff that otherwise would not be in Dunedin and I cannot
understate how important that is to the community.''

Grover: New Zealand funding of research is much too low. We
spend 1.3 per cent of GDP on R&D whereas the OECD average
is 2.4 per cent. It is true that we have a higher proportion
of researchers then the OECD average (7.8 vs. 6.6 per 1000).
However, almost 45 per cent of our "researchers" are
postgraduate students.
Everyone in education knows that teaching is totally
undervalued in NZ. An example is the fact that the only
nationally recognised teacher is Irene Van Dyk, who is famous
for netball and just happens to be a teacher.
The research funding situation is a valid question though: we
have too many researchers for our population base to support,
and we have chosen not to fund them adequately as a result.
The fact that so much research is known to be a waste of time
doesn't help though: PhD theses that prove sheep are afraid
of cardboard boxes, research into female Maori sexual
experiences, Helen Clark's husband getting millions, the 1080
fiasco where nobody believes any of the official line, the
Agent Orange fiasco, the Gisborne Cancer fiasco, the list
goes on. If research wants better funding, it needs to study
something valid and come clean over the failures of the past.
Part of the teaching sickness is in treating students like
customers, and assessing the pass rate as proof of excellence
and a step in getting more funding. The PC revolution has
impacted teaching more than any profession.
