Grasso Lawyers Ask Appeals Court to Bounce Justice Ramos
WSJ reporter Paul Davies attended a hearing at New York state court this afternoon concerning the civil case brought by Eliot Spitzer's office against former New York Stock Exchange chief Dick Grasso. He filed the following dispatch:
Attorneys for Grasso argued two key appeals today: that the major dispute over his pay should be decided by a jury instead of a judge; and that the judge overseeing the lawsuit, Justice Charles E. Ramos, should be removed from the case.
One of Grasso's attorneys, Gerson Zweifach of Williams & Connolly, called Ramos's decision to hold a bench trial on the pay issue "an abuse of discretion." But an attorney for Spitzer said Grasso isn't guaranteed a jury trial under state law on the pay issue because the state isn't seeking damages, just re-payment of funds.
Spitzer, who will become Empire State governor in January, sued Mr. Grasso in May 2004 alleging the $187.5 million compensation package amassed by the former Big Board chief was excessive under state's not-for-profit laws.
Since then, the case has grown increasingly messy. No fewer than six separate legal claims have been made against Mr. Grasso, and several appeals are ongoing. Last month, Justice Ramos ruled that Mr. Grasso should give back as much as $100 million. Mr. Grasso's attorneys are appealing that order as well, but arguments on that appeal have yet to be heard.
Zweifach also argued that Justice Ramos should be removed from the case in part because the judge twice sought to join the NYSE's board of directors. He said comments made by the judge during settlement talks also signaled that he might be biased against his client.
So what did the appeals panel make of the arguments? It didn't make any rulings, but seemed inclined to keep Justice Ramos on the case. Associate Justice David Saxe, one of the judges on the panel, said removing Justice Ramos for comments made during settlement talks could send a "chilling effect" to judges that attempt to resolve other cases before trial.
Grasso attended the hearing but didn't speak. After a hearing, he seemed inclined to comment but an aide quickly pulled him out the door toward a waiting car.
From this reporter's perspective, the highlight of the hearing was the courtroom. The Appellate Court in Manhattan is one of the most beautiful courtrooms around. It feels more like an old cathedral than a court: The bench is dark wood panel, the walls are marble, there's lots of stained glass and a gold leaf ceiling. Very impressive.

Tonight's estimated Lotto jackpot
First things first I'd take a holiday. Then maybe buy a boat and throw boat parties all the time
edit: And what do you think your immediate reaction would be while watching the draw?
I think I'd be something like: "please please please please" (x100) during the draw, then stunned silence for around 10 seconds after I've matched every ball, then about a thousand OMGs, then go and make some toast while I gather myself
What would you do if you won £7,100,000?
|Posted on
7 million isn't enough for the things I want to do.
Buy a chair and a cat and stroke the cat while sitting on the chair.
Nice house, nice car, a villa abroad with a big pool, go travelling to some cool places, maybe set up a little businesses and hire people to do the work
oh well, back to reality..............
Ban these threads which seem to appear every single day getting the same predictable boring responses (including the one I have just written)
... and then buy 30 houses for £150,000 each, rent them all out and buy a ferrari
High interest bank account
and travel
Count it...
Yes I'm weird like that
Have someone fill my baths with £50 notes.
Always wanted to travel to a non-developed country and help out. Yeah I know I don't need 7 mil to do that, but it'd mean I could help with aid etc. Pay off my student debt and buy my mum a house. Oh yeah
EDIT: Negged for wanting to help. Only on TSR :P
Replace my boobs with ones made of gold.
Put it on red.
Buy a house with a pool. Fill said pool with cash. Pretend to be Scrooge McDuck.
invest 7 mill. spend 100k on cool ****. then finish my A levels and go travelling
if there's a big euro millions rollover, I buy three and a half million tickets
play your rushes
Buy a kindle and an ipod
Move to a nicer student house closer to central london.
Buy my mum and dad new houses.
Figure out which charities to donate money to.
Book a holiday
Save the rest.
Donate some (I don't know how much) to Leukemia/Lymphoma research. Buy my parents a house in the mediterranean somewhere so they can live there when my dad retires. Set aside around 75k for my brother so he can go to university and not worry about fees or other costs. Probably set aside around the same amount for myself to get through university and then maybe postgraduate if I decide to do that. Then I'd probably put the rest in savings until I need it. Leave university with hopefully a good degree, get a good job and buy a house with the money. I'd probably just keep the rest for the future, maybe invest in property or use it to go on holidays if the salary I earn wouldn't allow me to do that at least once a year. I would try and save a lot of it for retirement. I guess if I invest most of it over 40 odd years then I'll have plenty by the time I retire. Then I might travel the world and yeah.
Probably collapse and die of shock before I get a chance to spend it
Take it to an area with a field and high middle aged population/any LabourLiberal voting constituency, put it in a pile and set fire to it. Every last penny. Then hop on my push bike to escape the angry mob wearing a V for Vendetta mask

Eric Holder Vows to Investigate Trayvon Martin Shooting and Combat Stereotypes

In speech today, U.S. attorney general promises to pursue a federal investigation into the case.
49Ers Quest For 6: I'm a conservative because I believe in fiscal policies, socially conservative behaviors, and a strong national defense. However, conservative values have gotten twisted so badly. Racism is an extremely sick behavior and has nothing to do with conservative values. There is no reason a truly conservative candidate needs to alienate other races or religions. Also, just because I'm conservative doesn't mean it means wasting money on wars overseas. It means we save money and get out of debt by not increasing our defense dollars budget. And national Defense doesn't mean National Offense. We should just focus on defense capabilities and not drone strike or bomb third world countries. What has happened to Lincoln's party? Now conservatism means being a bigot, wasting money, and being a war hawk. No thanks. The conservative balance that this country needs is gone. It used to be a healthy balance between liberal and conservatives.. Now it's a battle between two money wasting, war mongering, uneducated meme reading, and complaining parties. God we need help.

I wish I could take pictures that could better capture the insane layers of flavors in this simple and crowd / lover / belly pleasing dish.
Now, this is one of my favorite recipes of all — the kind of recipe where there is no realllll recipe. Your tongue is the recipe. Your tongue calls all the shots here so just blindly follow it! Trust the tongue. Folding the parchment might seem intimidating, but it's not…it's not like this is an origami lesson and you're going to get quizzed later. You just have to make sure the parchment is sealed tight, so the fish can steam up in there and cook to perfection. How you get there? That's your business.
Shall we begin? Let's begin…
I know. That's a lot of parenthesis/not a lot of numbers for an ingredient list but it's important for you to know that the possibilities are endless here. I have done this recipe a couple times and I will say this… do MORE than you think of everything and your tastebuds and nose will be soooooo pleased when you tear open that paper. I promise.
First things first:
If using dried shiitakes, bring some water to a simmer on the stove top. Use about twice as much water as you will mushrooms. Once the water is hot, remove from heat, toss in a handful or so of shiitakes and press down with a spoon to submerge. Right now, you are making a nice little mushroom broth that you will lightly spoon over the fish before baking. Let them soak for 30 minutes, then squeeze out the excess liquid and reserve both the mushrooms and the liquid. You can either use THESE mushrooms from the broth in your recipe, or cut up your fresh shiitake to sprinkle over the top. I like the broth the dried shiitakes makes, but prefer to use fresh as the ones I'm eating. Make sense? I know. I'm rather long winded here.
Let this sit as you prepare your veg.
Mince or garlic press your garlic — I think for one long filet I did 6-8 cloves, for real. Peel and finely mince or grate your ginger. Enough to match what you've done with the garlic, or slightly more if you love ginger like me. Finely chop the serranos. Thinly slice the green onion. Slice zucchini about 1/4 inch thick.
Prepare your parchment. Make sure it's cut large enough to accommodate your little fish friend! you'll need a few inches around the border to make room for the height of the fish and the wrapping up of the sides. Keep it rectangular, cut round edges, make a heart, a star of david. Who cares. Just make him a nice little home he can be wrapped up in!
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Lay the parchment onto a sheet pan and add your sesame oil in a freeform splash, making sure it covers around the same surface area as your piece of fish (meaning the fish will lie on a bed of sesame oil)! I was more than a little heavy-handed here — blotted a bit off post-photo.
Add the ginger, garlic, chillies, scallions, and then arrange the zucchini on top in an angled single layer. Heavily season with salt and pepper….heavily. Remember, we are going for flavor country here. The garlic and ginger will look like a lottttt of garlic and ginger but go with it! It'll be delicious.
Oh, it looks good.
Next, lay your fish on top. Season again with salt and pepper. If you have white pepper, do a dash of that too. Because god, white pepper is awesome and this is like a tiny little UPS package of everything awesome.
Now take a small little dish and add some spoonfuls of that mushroom broth to it (of not, add some water). Then add a little splash of mirin and some salt and pepper. I know. More salt and pepper. Cut up your mushrooms (the fresh, or the dried if you chose to use them — the dried shiitakes have a naturally more rubbery texture, some people love this). My photo shows the first time when I used the dried, but the second time I used fresh. I prefer fresh and only used the dried mushrooms to make broth.
Put the sliced mushrooms on top of your fish and spoon a couple spoonfuls of the broth / mirin mixture on top. Also add more of the chillies, green onions, ginger and garlic if you have any left!
Time to wrap! There is surely a technique to this, but not one that I am great at. As with anything, you'll get better the more you do this. I didn't leave enough room because I'm stupid and I just like telling other people to leave enough room. Since the technique is kind of hard to type out, here! I found some random lady on youtube doing it. click for random lady.
Bake for about 15 minutes. Smaller, thinner fish = less time. Something half this size is probably around 6-8 minutes. Don't overcook! We are just steammmmming this little beauty.
I'm sure that you, like me, will eat this and come up with a few little alterations of your own. Me, I obviously love salt, super spiciness, garlic and ginger. I find the criminal sin of the home cook is to not season (salt and pepper) at nearly every step. I season everything. Everything gets love. EVERYTHING.
Also did you know that a pinch is basically 3 of your fingers coming together, saying 'let's do this, bitches' to each other and grabbing as much salt as they possibly can? Before school, I thought a pinch was how I pinch John's booty — thumb and pointer. No. Get that middle finger involved too. Menage. A. Trois.
Anyhoo, make it once, make your changes. I'm sure a nice little squiggle of sriracha before baking would be the tits on this.
What other flavors do you wanna try ? Curious to hear, as this technique is gonna be a staple in my home. Well a staple when I'm pseudo-dieting / trying to be somewhat healthy at least. I mean it's great. REALLY great. But fish….well, it ain't no fried chicken.

Hi :)
I'm looking for one or more slideshow plugins, or "slider" or gallery plugins or any terminology that covers ideally:
Supporting the core "[gallery]" shortcode, so that I can have "gallery" type posts that WP will recognize and handle as such, and also so that I can automatically generate galleries on user-uploaded content.
Will be responsive and mobile-friendly. It will show images in fullscreen (not Jetpack Carousel "fullscreen" with padding) with no padding or margins, and any controls overlayed directly on the images.
If it could also support scale-to-fit, or crop-to-fill or whatchmacallit, it'd be awesome. That is, if a phone user views a 16:9 image in portrait mode, i.e. on a 9:16 viewport, she won't see a ton of black background and a tiny letterbox of pixels in the center, but rather a cropped image. Here it would be fantastic if the plugin would have dashboard support for the admin to specify allowed and optimal crops, so that one could ensure parts of an image would never be cropped off.
Does this make sense? Does anyone of you know of any such plugin or plugins? I'm wading through sliders and gallery plugins and slideshow plugins and whatnot, but I'm not getting much closer...

Searching for Treasures at TIFF: A Top Dozen List
Hey Everyone. Amir here to preview the Toronto International Film Festival. There's less than a month to go before opening night. Those of you who follow the festival's news regularly probably know that yesterday marked the completion of most of the festival's strands, so we can officially start salivating all over the program book. Making a "Most Anticipated Films" list is a fool's errand; TIFF's lineup is so vast that the list would basically equate to everything that's left to be screened in 2012 and then some. Titles like The Master, Anna Karenina, Argo (the latter of which I'm anticipating and dreading) and Cloud Atlas will feature on everyone's list. There are also Cannes leftovers such as Rust & Bone, Reality, No and The Paperboy to be excited for, but I'm dedicating this list, to the pleasure of discovery which is the lifeblood of festivals.
Last year Nathaniel made a similar list of sixteen potential gems in advance of the festival. Some of those were films I would not have watched had he not suggested them, and I'm glad to say that one of them ended up not only as my top film of the festival, but the best film I saw all year. Here's hoping we can strike gold again with any of these:
12. A Liar's Biography/The Suicide Shop
Yes, I hate "ties" as much as you when it comes to list-making but I wanted to round things out with an animated film and couldn't decide between them. We've got a 3D fictionalized telling of Graham Chapman's life through the perspective of the Monty Python gang or a Patrice Leconte musical about a family who help people take their own lives. Can you blame me for the indecision ?!?
The Midnight Madness program is the one I've attended the least over the years, mostly because I see too many films in a day to have the energy at midnight. Yet this omnibus film seems like the perfect campy end to a festival day. Twenty-six directors from all over the world (including Ti West and Ben Wheatley) give us twenty-six alphabet inspired ways to die in a horror film.
10. Barbara
Barbara already screened at Berlinale to terrific reactions, but given that it has no Canadian distributor I'm watching. Director Christian Petzold netted a Silver Bear in Berlin and Nina Hoss, terrific in his last two films, returns to star in a third consecutive. The 80s-set story concerns a scientist forced to stay in a rural hospital as punishment by the East German government.
Isabelle Huppert, Terrence Malick, and Seven (or more) Pyschopaths after the jump.

WASHINGTON -- Three years ago, consumers stated they purchased chicken over other proteins because of its versatility and convenience. In 2002, the same reasons prevailed -- an indication that poultry continues to dominate those product attributes in the meat case, according to an updated survey released by the National Chicken Council. The poll, conducted by PKS Research Partners, Ewing, N.J., and released during this summer's Chicken Marketing Seminar, queried this year a panel of ...

As you'd expect from the Hakkasan restaurant group, Sake No Hana is well designed and has slick service: a combination that means the striking yet serene dining room plays host to many a business lunch from the Economist's offices round the corner. On a midweek lunchtime visit there were also a number of well-heeled families enjoying the range of contemporary Japanese dishes.
A four-course 'Taste of Sake No Hana' (£29) proved a filling meal, with miso soup, a choice of sukiyaki, tempura or grilled dish, a handful of sushi and a dessert. Arriving sizzling at the table, its earthenware cloche still in place, our tofu toban-yaki came with a pleasingly tangy ponzu dressing and slices of shiitake and eringi mushroom on the side. A coating of tempura batter pieces added interest to an avocado and red pepper inside-out roll; and a selection of ice-cream mochi wedges, presented in a circle like the petals of a flower, rounded off the meal well.
There's also plenty for wine and saké buffs to get stuck into. Don't forget to glance upwards while you're dining; the sculptural wood slating above your head definitely deserves a look.

Had a great time at Sake No Hana - the signature tasting menu was mostly fabulous with a few dishes that weren't full to our taste. The service was brilliant, I don't recognise the feedback from other reviewers one bit. Will definitely go again sometime!
Poor service, very mediocre food. Miso soup tasted of MSG, from a packet, horrible 'dumplings' floating in it. Tofu pieces in the 'hotpot' were coated in gloopy cornstarch that had started to solidify. Sushi did not taste freshly made, the rice very compacted, fillings uninspired (avocado and red pepper, salmon and avocado). Tempura was heavy and greasy. Service unhelpful, and rather brusque. Very poor value for money, there are much better Japanese restaurants in London.
Appalling place: booked a table for 8.30pm at 9.20pm it was still not ready. The chubby redhead non English speaking hostess was rude and not remotely apologetic - never again
Fabulous lunch, sumptuous flavours and textures, attentive discrete service, what amazing Sake! Very highly recommended.
No mention of our star deal so we just ordered off the menu. Same dish came twice which we had to send back. Our 3rd dish was the wrong one and we were told that the dish we ordered would take another 30 mins to prepare, it was 10.45pm by this time! No apology was given or any suggestion made as to an alternative. We had 3 different waiters serving our table who seemed new and confused, one had to come back and reconfirm our order twice. Poor service and ambience, food was average. Would not recommend, cant believe it is part of Hakkasan.

The aim of rehabilitation is to restore the health of victims so that they can take up their former occupation or an alternative one and participate as fully independent members of society. Rehabilitation thus represents all concrete measures that are suitable for reinstating victims in the personal, vocational and social roles that they played prior to their accident or illness.
There are thus three different aspects of rehabilitation:
- medical
- vocational and
- social rehabilitation.

Independent Contractors/Agents, do not work for this company if you expect to get paid what you have rightfully earned. This company will continually find reasons to pay you less than what you should be paid based upon the commission schedule but of course there will be no documentation. They will pull at least 10% out of each of your paychecks for an alleged escrow account they will not provide any statements for and if you leave before you have received commissions due, it is highly unlikely you will ever receive them.
Employee's double check the hours you have worked vs. the hours you have been paid for every time.

Without a doubt, smart phones have dramatically changed the workplace. But has it been for the better?
Perhaps most people would say yes. Not that long ago, stepping out of the office meant going off the grid. The cell phone made it easier to stay in contact, but it wasn't much help when it came to reviewing documents or accessing websites.
The smart phone was the real game changer, making it possible to carry on a lot of daily work from just about any location with service coverage, including the home. Many people might grumble about the so-called "digital leash," but most would agree it was a necessary evil.
But is it even necessary? Earlier this year, California Gov. Jerry Brown proposed taking away state-issued mobile phones from most employees, saying they represented an unnecessary cost. Some FCW readers agreed. Although some government positions require constant access, most don't.
"Just because most people nowadays can't seem to function without a cell phone does not translate into its necessity to do the job," wrote Olde Sarge.
But other readers see it in simpler terms: They say they aren't being paid enough to be accessible at every hour of the day, every day of the week.
"So I say, take back the BlackBerrys, take back the cell phones, and if you're not going to pay us fairly for our talent and effort, give us back our lives," one reader commented.
Even John Berry, the director of the Office of Personnel Management, sees a downside to constant connectivity. In a recent speech, he encouraged managers to spend less time checking their BlackBerrys and more time talking with their employees.
"Hear, hear!" readers replied.
"It is not just a curse of managers," one reader commented. "I've been in several 'working groups' with people who start looking at their electronic toys when colleagues are directly addressing them. Why anyone thinks this is not rude is beyond me."

Part of my job is to 'stay connected' to my home office as well as to motivate my clients to reach their goals.This takes a heck of a lot of texts, emails, phone calls.Its a lot of work, but TREMENDOUSLY SATISFYING
I also have our doctors, physiologists and rest of the team a text or email away whenever I need their advice on a case. No one on my team or even my clients have ever abused having my cell number. I have over 100 clients.
I'm very passionate about this work and when I get a text at 6am that says "I just ran 5 miles for the first time and I feel fantastic!!", it really makes my day.
I think, in the end, those who have access to employees with digital leashes should use more discretion in using them, so as not to abuse the privilege and sour the work relationship.
A Curse.While it does not affect me (wireless devices are a security hazard in my workplace), I was visiting my sister who works for an agency that has to have a lot of flexibility since the bad guys never take time off when you do. Her first line tasking manager (not directly the boss) is a micro manager who insists that trivial tasks that he sends over the phone be immediately responded too, nothing to do with even the lowest levels of threats (sort of like me being asked the status of a 120 day program that is due in 119 days at 9 PM on a Saturday night). She has to check the phone since it could be a real threat that she has to address, which interrupts family activities or even sleep.Just glad I work in a job where when the 9 hours are over I am gone, and do not have to answer the land line phone if I suspect it is a work call. No stress, no fuss, no muss.......no cell phone (at least that I acknowledge).

*Stephanie at Throwing Marshmallows had the same reaction I did when I read a recent NY Times article about Michael Phelps and expresses her thoughts in About That ADHD Serving a Purpose Thing. I appreciate the hope that his story gives to parents and students, but his experience in school highlights how the educational model that is so common in our school system is not a good fit for all students. I agree with Stephanie:
"My belief is that all kids have their own gifts and I feel that homeschooling is an excellent way to help kids explore and find their passions. Because I can tailor our approach to how my kids learn, we can focus on their strengths. This does not mean that we ignore their weaknesses, just that they are not the sole focus of our schooling."
*In 19 Can-Do Nature Walk Variations, April at Bringing Up Learners shares some great ideas for making the most of nature walks. You would think that growing up on a farm and playing outside and climbing in trees for such a considerable part of my childhood would make nature walking seem natural to me, but it isn't. (Jane Claire Lambert's seasonal nature studies provide more ideas.)
*See my previous post, DIY for Kids, to find out about the kids' projects offered at Lowe's and Home Depot on weekends. (Here's a photo of the Lowe's Build and Grow project my daughter made a few weeks ago. A pipe cleaner is enough to keep her younger sister out of the locker!) A similar program for arts and crafts has just started at Michael's—The Knack, which aims to inspire creativity in kids with craft projects designed just for them. According to the web site, "kids ages 5-12 will create their own fun craft for only $5 per child, including supplies. The Knack Saturdays have 30 minute sessions at 10, 10:30, 11 or 11:30 am." Michael's also has free family events and demonstrations. Some of the upcoming classes and projects look fun!

The charges against the second defendant accused of dragging her niece with a car and nearly running her over have gone away.
The Hill County Attorney asked the judge to dismiss charges against Gloria Crazyboy, born in 1976, saying the prosecution was not able to contact the niece so she could testify in Crazyboy's trial.
Because some conflicting testimony had arisen, without the niece to testify the prosecution believed it would not be able to convict, the motion to dismiss says.
State District Judge Dan Boucher granted the motion to dismiss the charges.
In May, Boucher sentenced co-defendant Leslie Crazyboy, born in 1979, to three years, all suspended, with credit for 131 days served.
Leslie Crazyboy pleaded guilty in a plea agreement in April to a felony count of criminal endangerment.
The accusations said Leslie Crazyboy drove away in a vehicle after Gloria Crazyboy grabbed a purse belonging to their niece, who was in the area from out of state visiting her relatives, while the neice was struggling with Gloria Crazyboy, who was in the vehicle. The niece told investigating officers she thought she was going to be run over and had to push herself off a tire of the vehicle using her foot.

When I had my 13 week u/s I asked if the placenta was anterior or posterior and they said anterior but it would likely move. I know the placenta can't literally move but as the uterus grow the placenta grows up with it kind of thing.
Anyway, anyone else ever had an anterior placenta? I don't think I had this with either of my boys but I'm kind of concerned now. I've had 2 prior c-sections and I know if the placenta is over the incision that can cause the placenta to grow in to the incision site. I'll ask more questions when I go on the 17th for the big u/s.
Also worried about feeling movement with anterior placenta. I'm still not feeling anything yet (though I am plus size). I felt movement with my oldest around 19 weeks I think and sooner with my 2nd.

Omar Narvaez Decisions Cesar Seda To Retain WBO Strap
By Jhonny Gonzalez
Bahía Blanca, Buenos Aires, Argentina - Hometown hero Omar Narvaez (34-0-2, 19KOs) retained the WBO's super flyweight title with a twelve round unanimous decision over previously undefeated César "Junito" Seda (20-1, 15KOs). The scores were 117-110, 115-112 and 117-110. The fight was certainly closer than the scores would indicate, but Narvaez withstood the early flames to overcome a tired Seda in the later rounds.
Seda stayed true to his word and tried to knock Narvaez out at every turn. He threw high volumes of punches, but at the same time he came in reckless and left himself open to counters. As a result he allowed Narvaez to steal certain rounds with a more accurate punch output. After Seda was unable to complete his plan to secure a win by knockout, there was no Plan B on reserve. He continued to throw in high numbers, but very few of those punches found their target.
Seda was visibly tired in the later rounds, yet he showed a championship heart by continuing to throw punches. Of course, by that point his punches had lost their steam and Narvaez knew the threat of danger had passed, which made him take more calculated risks but he never made the mistake of exchanging punches.

Oh hello beautiful colours and gorgeous models! Not bridal but I'm sure someone out there can and will be inspired by these.
Oh my God this shoot is awesome…it's good for the soul to take a break from wedding overload once in a while and Kelly Moore has given me the perfect excuse to do so.
So I did some hunting around to find out the true story of the fabulous 'Woodstock Wedding' that I blogged a few days ago. Turns out it was a 'fake' wedding and was set up as an editorial photoshoot for French magazine Jalouse…and the Bride & Groom – wait for it – were actually Mark Ronson and his girlfriend Josephine de la Baume!
So these aren't bridal at all but I totally wish they were – please someone be inspired and do something like this for a bridal shoot, how kick ass would that be?!
The model's hat, necklace and dress are all from Frocky Jack Morgan. Store owner, Julia Barbee actually sells her reconstructed dresses to kick ass brides too, so who knows it looks like someone could rock this look for a bridal shoot after all!
Thanks to Alicia & Kenneth for sharing. MWAH!

My friend David McNeil took a trip to Brighton with TV Presenter Jules who needed some new shots for her portfolio. Poles apart from the usual boring head shots, David and Jules went from cute and sweet to full on vamp within a matter of shots which created some really amazing results. As soon as I saw these I know I'd have to share, these could be straight out of a Vogue fashion shoot no problem!

The persistent rumors surrounding a Google "Gphone" have been stoked again, this time by a Wall Street Journal article that reports that Google is courting wireless operators to provide an ad-supported mobile phone service to Google-customized handsets. The Journal article does not directly identify sources of this information, only that it's coming from "people familiar with the plans" and "who have been briefed on it."

Is it possible to just use the regular post categories for EM and not event categories?
Is it possible to just use the regular post categories for EM and not event categories?
you can try this snippet and paste it to your theme functions.php
add_action('init', 'demo_add_default_boxes');
function demo_add_default_boxes()
register_taxonomy_for_object_type('category', 'event');
register_taxonomy_for_object_type('category', 'event-recurring');
Excellent! Thanks Agelonwl
That didn't work for me. I'm using P2 theme. I would like the events to appear as posts as well as in their normal displays.
I should clarify, the selection appears as an option when writing the post. The event lists under the event category (regular taxonomy category that I created) but it doesn't display.
events aren't posts, they are custom posts. You can use standard WP hooks/filters to get custom posts to appear on your homepage, e.g. http://justintadlock.com/archives/2010/02/02/showing-custom-post-types-on-your-home-blog-page
I looked at that code and placed in my functions php what would use for a word to show custom post type for events?
Sorry for opening this thread again, but this is something which really haunts me.
What I've done so far:
I put this code in the functions.php:
add_action('init', 'my_em_taxonomies');
function my_em_taxonomies() {
register_taxonomy_for_object_type('post_tag', EM_POST_TYPE_EVENT);
register_taxonomy_for_object_type('category', EM_POST_TYPE_EVENT);
I put this filter after it:
add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'my_get_posts' );
function my_get_posts( $query ) {
if ( is_home() && $query->is_main_query() )
$query->set( 'post_type', array( 'post', 'event' ) );
return $query;
But the event still doesn't show up on the homepage. Where did I go wrong? Or what did I miss?
Thanks for helping. Problem is my site basically exists only of events. At the monent I have to copy every event to show up as post which is very time consuming.
This topic has been closed to new replies.

NBC – America's "fed up". News flash – so am I
Yup, NBC is figuring out that things aren't so great, especially in Obamaville:
To words sum up the mood of the nation: Fed up.
Six in 10 Americans are dissatisfied with the state of the U.S. economy, more than 70 percent believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, and nearly 80 percent are down on the country's political system, according to the latest NBC News / Wall Street Journal poll.
The frustration carries over to the nation's political leaders, with President Barack Obama's overall approval rating hitting a new low at 40 percent, and a mere 14 percent of the public giving Congress a thumbs up.
So there is no question that a majority of Americans (60/40) disapprove of the job the President is doing. About time. What is a question is what will be done about it.
My guess? Not much. I'm not talking about impeachment, I'm not talking about censure – neither are options for the American people as a whole. I'm talking about the next presidential election – will it be another emotional beauty contest, or will the people actually take it seriously? Given the last presidential election, which returned an incompetent and disconnected president to office, I have no real hope they will.
Looking at the Congressional numbers, I only say "what's new"? Their low numbers have persisted through a number of presidencies and yet the same people pretty much run the place. And apparently it is heresy to actually want candidates who see the Constitution as the law of the land and essentially mandating a much smaller government with much less intrusion into the daily lives of Americans.
But, will the people of the US actually choose the heretics? It appears they'd much rather stick with the status quo and bitch about it. I expect nothing much to change in Congress except a few names and party affiliations and perhaps the majority in the Senate. But work toward smaller, less intrusive and less costly government? Address spending and the deficit? You need to provide me with some of the drugs you're taking if you think that will happen.
Nope … just as I believe the West hasn't the backbone to do what is necessary to confront and eradicate radical Islam, I have no confidence that the American people want to do anything more about the current situation than bitch about it.
We've had a succession of wave elections that have put an exclamation point to the findings above. At each election, they're pretty much the same as those above. And what have they brought us? More of the same. I can't imagine this will be any different. Just a different branch of the same establishment group getting the blame.
So who will win in November?
Who cares? If Mitch McConnell is Majority Leader, Harry Reid is Minority Leader and Barack Obama is President, what will really change?
Economic Statistics for 5 Aug 14
June factory orders rose a generally strong 1.1%, led by a big 3.3 percent jump for nondefense capital goods excluding aircraft.
The non-manufacturing ISM index rose 2.7 points in July to 58.7.

Trying to change the argument
The New Republic publishes an article saying, in essence, "see, the ObamaCare increases are nothing to really get excited about". And to emphasize the point, they issue this Price-Waterhouse map (the reason they use it is as an appeal to authority):
If you look at it, you'd likely conclude that they were mostly right … where's the problem? Only Indiana seems to have a real problem and its increases are only around 15%.
And, you know, if Price-Waterhouse says it, it must be true.
Researching it beyond that, well, that would be journalism:
INDIANA: 2015 premiums increases 'as high as … 46-percent' "Initial 2015 premiums filed for the Obamacare exchanges in Indiana ranged from as high as a 46-percent hike to as low as a 9-percent cut." (Indianapolis Business Journal, 5/19/14)
MARYLAND: 2015 premiums could increase up to 30% "Maryland's dominant insurance company, CareFirst, is proposing hefty premium increases of 23 to 30 percent for consumers buying individual plans next year under the federal health-care law, according to filings released Friday."

Cigna Wants To Increase Rates An Average Of 14.4 Percent And Humana, 25.5 Percent." (The Arizona Republic, 6/2/14)
LOUISIANA: 'Double-digit increases' up to 24% possible "Some Louisiana private health insurers filed for double-digit percentage increases in 2015 for policies sold under the Affordable Care Act's health exchange, according to filings this week with the Louisiana Department of Insurance." (New Orleans Times Picayune, 7/15/14)
· "Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana, the state's largest provider, is proposing rate increases of between 18.3 percent and 19.7 percent for policyholders in its Blue Saver, Blue Max and its Multi-State individual health plans.

The average hike sought by insurers for individual plans is 12 percent—but a number of firms serving large numbers of patients want to boost individual premiums by nearly 20 percent. Leading the charge is Excellus Health Plan, which is seeking to sock more than 24,000 customers with a 19.7 percent hike." (New York Post, 7/3/14)
VERMONT: 2015 premiums could increase up to 18.3% "The two companies that sell policies on the state's online health insurance marketplace — Vermont Health Connect — have filed requests with state regulators for big rate increases for 2015. Blue Cross Blue Shield of Vermont has asked for an average increase for its plans of 9.8 percent. … the increases would have averaged 3.3 percent if not for federal and state mandates. … MVP Health Care proposed an even bigger rate increase — an average 15.4 percent, with a range starting at 10.7 percent and rising to 18.3 percent." (Burlington Free Press, 6/3/14)

(The Associated Press, 6/26/14)

(The Wall Street Journal, 5/11/14)
IOWA: 2015 premium increases up to 14.5 percent "About a quarter of a million Iowans would see their insurance rates rise next year should the state approve a request from Iowa's dominant health insurer. Wellmark Blue Cross and Blue Shield announced Friday that it is seeking to raise premium rates for 253,000 policyholders in Iowa. Those rate increases would affect individual policyholders and small businesses. Most — 92 percent — of the proposed rate increases would be less than 5.9 percent, according to numbers provided by Wellmark. … For the remaining 7.5 percent of policyholders — those who have post-Affordable Care Act plans for individuals under 65 — Wellmark is asking for a rate increase between 11.9 percent and 14.5 percent." (Des Moines Register, 6/20/14)
OHIO: "Premiums would increase 13 percent next year for Ohioans who buy health coverage through the federally run insurance exchange, the Ohio Department of Insurance said yesterday." (The Columbus Dispatch, 5/30/14)
OREGON: 2015 premiums could increase up to 12.5% "Moda Health captured more than 40 percent of the state's exchange enrollees this year, with about 95,000 people covered under its plans. The company is proposing to increase prices by an average of 12.5 percent. Only one other carrier proposed a double-digit price increase." (The Hill, 6/11/14)
RHODE ISLAND: 2015 premium increases 'averaging 12 percent' Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island is proposing 2015 premium increases averaging 12 percent for individuals and families, and 8 percent for small groups." (Providence Journal, 5/19/14)
DELAWARE: 2015 premiums could increase 5% "Delawareans could face higher insurance costs under the Affordable Care Act next year under new rate requests from insurers. Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield is seeking average premium increases of 5 percent for individuals who bought insurance through Delaware's exchange."(The Associated Press, 7/15/14)
Premiums would rise an average 13.2 percent for Floridians, according to the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation. But actual increases would vary greatly on families' size, financial circumstances, county of residence and the types of plans they select.
All that said, that's not the argument is it? Wasn't the promise that ObamaCare would save families an average of $2,500 a year?
That's what I remember.
But, you know, it's a great success.
17 trillion in debt and no relief in sight
As the world collapses around us, our borders are overrun, our leaders dither and procrastinate and the world in general thumbs their collective noses at "American power", this sort of stuff could get lost in the shuffle:
When President Obama took office on Jan. 20, 2009, the total federal debt was $10,626,877,048,913.08. As of the close of business on July 30, 2014, it had risen to $17,618,599,653,160.19–up $6,991,722,604,247.11 from Obama's first inauguration day.
By the close of business on July 31, 2014, it had risen to $17,687,136,723,410.59—up $7,060,259,674,497.51 since Obama first inauguration day.
Now the easy thing to do would be to go on a "it's Obama's fault" tirade, but that would only be partially true. He certainly holds some responsibility for doing nothing to stem the red ink, and, in most cases, actually encouraging it. He's certainly exerted no leadership in trying to get the two parties together on a budget either.
But it is Congress that appropriates and spends. Not the executive branch, now matter how bad it is. For the first two years of Obama's first term, it was all Democrats all the time. And they set in motion horrendous spending programs like ObamaCare. And there were a number more.
The fact of the matter is Congress also holds major share of the blame for this – no budget has been passed by the Senate during Obama's entire tenure – and again, the majority of the Senate has been Democrat for these 6 years.
So what had been a horrific 10 plus trillion debt that was piled up over 40 years, became an even more horrific 17 trillion dollar debt in 6 short years – with no end in sight.
Yet most of the idiots who've put us in this fiscal hole will be running for re-election in the midterms and most of them will be re-elected.
Once more, the definition of insanity seems to loom large, doesn't it?

Why is the West so afraid of Islam?
That's the title of an article written by Michael Brendan Dougherty in The Week.
But Ernesto Galli della Loggia, the lead editorial writer for Corriere Della Sera, offered one provocative suggestion for Europe's unwillingness to get involved: fear of Islam. In an editorial titled "The Indifference That Kills," he writes (translated here) that Europe fears what he calls "Arab Islam" and its ability to commit economic blackmail. He writes:
"At the same time, and above all, it fears the ruthless terrorism, the many guerrillas that claim to be inspired by Islam, their cruel barbarity, as well as the movements of revolt that periodically deeply stir the masses of that world, always permeated by a sensibility that is extremely easy to light up and to break loose in violent xenophobia." [Corriere Della Sera]
There is something to this. Consider: When Pope Benedict XVI, in an academic setting, merely quoted a medieval critique of Islam, the result was riots across the Islamic world, including the murder of Christian nuns. There was similar rioting and threats over satirical cartoons in a Danish newspaper that if made about Christianity would elicit almost no reaction beyond a letter or a few digital comments.
He goes on excruciatingly offering reasons that may have some validity but really don't hit on the real reason.
The West fears Islam (that's radical Islam) because it hasn't the intestinal fortitude to do what is necessary to combat it. If you've been watching in horror what ISIS has been doing as it moves through Iraq, or Hamas in Gaza, you understand that with radical Islam, there are not boundaries of decency or humanity that constrain them. They will do whatever it takes to win the day, no matter how many lives it costs on both sides. There is no such thing as an atrocity except the existence of infidels.
The West fears Islam because to do what is necessary to combat and defeat it, the West would have to throw over decades of liberal hogwash about the equality of cultures and how we must respect them. Its a bit like claiming you have to respect and endure a rabid skunk because it is a living being and thus our equal.
Instead of admitting that radical Islam is a rabid skunk that needs to be exterminated, we continue to see the liberal game being played as is. And the results are predictable. Knowing that there's really no downside to their actions (in their terms not ours – martyrdom is martyrdom regardless of how it is achieved) they continue to push the envelope and receive the equivalent of "red lines" that are never enforced in answer.
The West has become a collective of cowards who will be taken piecemeal by this pernicious and unrelenting force who is focused on conquest by any means necessary. As it single-mindedly pursues that goal, the West dithers, argues, laments, has meetings and generally believes that at some point it will be able to reason with a movement which is as savage as any pack of beasts. It won't meet that savagery with equal savagery – something necessary to get the attention of this malevolent movement.
Instead the West will continue to insist on "rules" in a game with no rules, morality from a group who has demonstrated none and eventually capitulate when all of this becomes clear too late to survive the stupidity. The West is either going to have to wake up and act in a manner that will ensure its survival or prepare to be overwhelmed and become a part of the Caliphate. And, as ISIS and others have more than amply demonstrated, the takeover will be horrific.
The West has a real reason to fear radical Islam. Most of it has to do with its own spinelessness. I mean, consider this – me saying what I've said would be condemned by most of the liberal West in no uncertain terms. Yet it is precisely what needs to be done to excise this threat from the face of the earth and ensure the survival of the very people that would condemn my words.

Wondering why there are few women in tech? Here's the perspective of someone in tech.
Via Instapundit and Bill Quick, I've noticed discussion about this Forbes article on why females are under-represented in technology companies.
As someone who has spent an adult lifetime in the tech industry, let me suggest an angle that I didn't see in this article, and which I have not seen in other similar articles.
Most jobs of any consequence in tech companies require people to successfully write code at some point in their careers. Writing code is a very unusual human activity. In addition to logic skills and some other cognitive capabilities that the articles usually do touch on, there is one aspect of it most people outside the industry have never thought about: you must be comfortable being wrong and prepared to constantly acknowledge and fix your own mistakes.
You are wrong a few dozen times a day. The computer tells you (via a compiler error or problem in the running program) that you are unambiguously wrong, and you *must* figure out how to fix the mistake before you proceed. The mistake can't be overlooked or ignored. It must be fixed, and to the exacting standards of a machine with no emotions.
And here's where I think the problem results in disparate impact between males and females: the computer is invulnerable to pleading, sweet-talking, eye blinking, hair tossing, lip licking, or any of the other things a substantial fraction of young women have learned to use to get their way in the world, via persuading a male to take care of it or overlook it.
Think, for example, about all those famous stratagems for getting out of traffic tickets, and the jokes about wanting to use one and finding out the cop is female. Whether feminists like it or not, that behavior is common among young women, and it's common because it works in many social situations.
Whether you think it's cultural or genetic, woman are less comfortable in the harsh reality, hard edged world of writing code. I think it's at least partially because it goes against how they have learned to deal with the world around them. Because the computer isn't a person, and certainly not a male, their best social skills avail them nothing. Plus, they have to be completely comfortable being told flat out "you are wrong about this – deal with it" many times a day, every day.
This is hard. No one likes being told that they are wrong. I know plenty of men who can't deal with it either. But I think women, on average, have less experience with it than men.
There is evidence to back that up. For example, there is research confirming that teachers pamper girls in school. So, from a young age, and given our current educational system, I think a male is less likely to have someone overlook their mistakes.
There are certainly amazing and talented women developers. I know some and I've hired some. In fact, I've hired a larger percentage of the women candidates who interviewed with me than men. I just don't see that many of them.
I strongly challenge the idea that the disparate numbers are due to sexism at the level of the technology companies. In the ruthlessly competitive world of tech, we'll take talent where we find it. I don't care about a candidate's gender, race, religion, sexual preference, or anything else irrelevant to the prime consideration: can they effectively write software?
In fact, given the current lop-sided proportion of men in the industry, in many cases a qualified woman actually has an advantage! Men are hardwired by eons of evolution to prefer to look at a woman across a conference table than another scruffy, bearded, overweight male nerd. Male decision makers, in my experience, simply never turn down a qualified woman due to sexism. (I supposed there are Neanderthal male decision makers out there who do, but in a long tech career, I've never met one.)
So, to the extent that gender matters at all, women typically have the better of it. But decision makers can't afford to let that factor override the need to perform. Anyone running a software development team knows the dangers of having someone who can't deal with the harsh realities of being told they are wrong and figuring out how to fix it many times a day. One of the prime characteristics I look for in interviews is defensiveness, which usually indicates an inability to deal with being wrong a lot. Such a person (male or female) not only fails to contribute much, they degrade the overall ability of the team to get things done.
I don't know how to fix this comparative lack of women in the industry, and I would certainly like to see it fixed. But expecting university computer science departments or tech companies to do it is silly. Any solution is going to have to go a lot further back in a female's life than young adulthood, and involve a much bigger effort than just encouraging more girls to enter science fairs.
Assuming rights that no one has
That's precisely what this pediatrician is claiming when he talks about what he has a right to do as it pertains to his patients and guns in the house:
As a pediatrician, I have one, straightforward professional obligation: to safeguard and support the health and wellbeing of my patients. In my case, those patients are children, but you could change the age range of the people coming into the office and apply that statement to any medical provider.
Every question I ask and every part of the physical examination, no matter how uncomfortable or invasive they might sometimes seem, is directed toward that one goal. I don't ask about my patients' sexual habits for the sake of prurience, for example, but rather to assess their risk for problems like sexually transmitted infections or unintended pregnancy.
Asking about guns in the house is no exception. When I ask parents if there are firearms in the home, and if so how they are secured, it is for the sole purpose of keeping their children safe. Given that access to guns in the home has been shown to increase the risk of death from suicide or homicide, to say nothing of the risk of accidental death, these questions are important. I ask because the answer matters.
He won't ask you if you have a pool. Or a car. Or knives. Just a gun.
He assumes a right to ask based on the false notion that it is his job to "keep children safe". Well, it's not.
So when asked by anyone about guns in my house, I will invoke my real right – that of privacy – and look an intrusive bastard like this right in the face and say, "that's none of your 'effing business."
Question asked and answered.
