It Can't Happen Again? Says Who?
Amid this season of contemplation and reflection, as the fifth anniversary of the Panic of 2008 fast approaches, you should be wary of people saying that another Lehman-like collapse isn't in the cards, or can't happen.
Why? Because five years ago, with Lehman on the verge of its historic collapse, most advisors were selling "more or less the same story," Mark Hulbert said this morning on the MoneyBeat show.
He went back and looked at what advisers were saying in August and early September of 2008, and found that most of them were "remarkably sanguine."

Definition of cylinder head in English:
cylinder head
The end cover of a cylinder in an internal combustion engine, against which the piston compresses the cylinder's contents.
Example sentences
- Very small roller cam followers are installed in the cylinder head to operate the valves instead of the conventional bucket-type tappets.
- It is equally important for the engine parts to be functioning in excellent condition - from the cylinder head to the crankshaft, the valvetrain, the pistons and the piston rings.
- The bolts are torqued in a special sequence to draw the intake manifold and its molded rubber gasket on to the cylinder head.

"If you are looking for the all-american boy, that is Dalton Hudspeth."
Those are the word's of Louisville theatre teacher Julie Etua, but opponents of the Wildcat football team would certainly have a different take. Hudspeth was part of an elite group of receivers that guided Louisville to a perfect 16-0 season and the 3A state championship.
"That's something that you dream about ever since you were a little kid," said Hudspeth. "I mean, you can't replace going undefeated and winning the ring."
Though he calls his fellow receivers more athletic, Hudspeth is only being modest, because when he's not catching passes, he's the cather for his school's baseball team.
He'll play for ICC next Spring.
"He exemplifies what every coach would want in a catcher, not only mentally but physically also," said Louisville baseball coach Charlie Smith. "He's an outstanding hitter."
But during his time at Louisville, Dalton discovered he had another talent: acting.
"I taught him in acting, and he took to it like a fish to water," said Etua. "He's very popular with all the other kids. And as we were doing plays in theatre class, they loved him. Everybody wanted to be his partner, because he's so good and he's very sensitve to the other kids."
Dalton told us he competed in several competition plays outside of class, so we asked him: Which made him more nervous? Football or theatre?
Theatre... because in theatre, there's so much more thinking that's got to go on. And you've got to make sure you do everything exactly right. In football, you're not the only person that's being looked at," said Hudsepth.
"Before theatre competitions, I've been far more nervous than I was before any football game."

Corporate Advocacy Program™
My family and I are located in Spotsylvania Va. We are currently involved with LitVin Law group in a foreclosure situation. This has gone on for several months and we have paid thousands of dollars to this firm. We are getting little to no feedback from
this firm in regards to this matter, our emails are ignored and our request for phone interviews are also ignored. Not only are we in fear of the loss of our home but could be out thousands of dollars as well. We have had recent contact with a Virginia Beach Law Firm that is affiliated with LitVin that has been somewhat helpful but still no real concrete information in regards to our situation. We have paid them some five thousand dollars and gotten hardly any information. I have been advised to contact your office in the hopes that someone there could help us. Its as though we are being milked until the date
to leave is given for my family and I and we are asked to vacate the property. Of course, any Lawyer will tell you that there are no guarantees of which we have heard many times from the LitVin Firm.
I must add that we were contacted by an organization called (Reaching you) network, (Freedom Legal Plans) dba (American Legal Plans) in October 2011. Our first Mortgage at that time was in fair shape and had been recently modified but Citi Mortgage refused to Modify our second that went on for over 2 years with, (yes we can modify), (no we can't modify). Records were lost time and time again by Citi Mortgage on the attempted Modification of the second. We were at one time told by a Citi Reprsentive to not pay the second, then we would be of interest to them to modify it. We sent them tons of
documentation over and over again for over 2 years.
We were advised by the organizations listed above to stop payment to Citi and to pay the Firm for their legal services and did so. It is our belief then and now that Citi had mislead us, so we decided to go with what we think to be legal assistance. It seems we were scammed by our Mortgage company and now by LitVin Law (American Legal).
We have been involved with American Legal Plans/Reaching U/ Freedom Legal for 8 months now, we have paid them $6000.00 to date, the same story I have read over and over again on this site to the word is happening to us. I do not live alone; I have a family with a wife and children. We need and want our home. We got in this situation due to very ill parents on both sides of our family that required my wife to be off from work caring for them for nearly a year and of course the economy has not helped us any. Its a shame that they are all con artist to include Citi Mortgage. They drag their feet and
tell you lies while taking your money, then claims it is all in the sake of helping you. $750.00 was taken from my checking account for the 9th time today. There is a lot that goes with our story, to much to print here. It starts with Citi and ends here. It is our hope and prayer that some one out there reads this and can help us before we lose our home and lots of money.

Registration Periods
Registration open dates: Registration opens for a term as outlined below and then remains open until the end of the regular Drop/Add period for the Part of Term in which the course appears.
Note about "Late-start" Courses: Most courses that fall within a term but begin after the start of the full term ("Late-start" courses) have registration open at the same time as the full term dates. Online adding and dropping for Late-start courses is usually possible during this time and up through the end of the Regular Drop/Add period for the full term. After that, registration usually remains open for a late-start course until the Regular Drop/Add period for the Part of Term in which the particular course appears; however, online adding and dropping is no longer possible, which is why a Late-start Registration Form is required for manual processing at that time. As long as registration is officially open, only the student signature is required, and both adding and dropping is still permitted.
Online Registration: Please remember any online registration activity takes place in Self Service (www.rowan.edu/selfservice) and is only possible between 7AM and 11PM each day and up until the end of the Regular Drop/Add period.

Photos: Stars journey from Television to Bollywood
It is a known fact that entering Bollywood without a godfather or godmother from the film industry is almost as difficult as trying to reach for the sky using a ladder. Millions try and fall. Very few succeed and survive.
One other way to enter Bollywood seems to be through television. Many good actors have been successful in their transition from television to Bollywood. Few of the popular and recent such actors are Shahrukh Khan, Vidya Balan, Rajeev Khandelval, Madhavan, Ram Kapoor and so on.
All these actors made their mark as good actors on various television shows and slowly moved into making Bollywood movies. They had to work hard and persistently and only then did they succeed as known actors.
When we consider all the Bollywood actors, almost all of them are from movie background. Hrithik Roshan, Abhishek Bhachchan, Ranbir Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Imran Khan; actresses like Kareena Kapoor, Rekha, Sonakshi Sinha, Kajol, Karishma Kapoor and the list goes on endlessly.
Here are the Bollywood actors who started their careers in television.

The idea for a wooden tower is really nice, I am also working on a wooden watchtower along the water.
I was working on it, and then I saw yours. Looks like we had the same idea.

Not Your Usual Date Bars
Total Time
Prep 30 mins
Cook 25 mins
This is my adopted recipe as of Feb. 2005. This is pretty darned good if I do say so. I changed the recipe to use 1 1/2 cups dates as suggested by the reviewer. This is more like cake than date bars. I didn't bother with the icing.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄2 cups dates, chopped
- 1⁄4 cup milk
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 2 cups flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 cup butter, softened
- 3⁄4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3⁄4 cup sour cream or 3⁄4 cup plain yogurt
- 1⁄2 cup nuts, chopped
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1⁄4 teaspoon vanilla
- In saucepan cook dates, milk and cream cheese over medium-low heat until dates are soft and mixture is blended.
- Cream butter and sugar, add eggs, vanilla and sour cream or yogurt and mix well.
- Mix baking soda and salt with flour and add to mixture, mixing well.
- Stir in by hand, slightly cooled date mixture and nuts.
- Spread in greased 15x10 jellyroll pan.
- Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes until lightly browned.
- Brown the butter on low heat, be careful not to burn.
- Stir into remaining ingredients, beat until smooth.
- Add small amount of milk if icing is too thick; spread over warm bars.
Most Helpful
Well....you should have tried them as they are VERY good. The only change I will make next time, and there will definitely be a next time, is to add a few more chopped dates. Probably 1 1/2 cups instead of 1 cup. Thanks for sharing.

The straightforward design of this sterling silver Holy Spirit medal makes it both appropriate and meaningful for young men and women to wear. The dove in the center of the medal is symbolic of the Holy Spirit, and the three sides of the triangle surrounding it represent the Holy Trinity. The sterling silver Holy Spirit medal measures 3cm x 3cm and comes on a continuous (no clasp) 24" chain.

|I fell in love with the design of this pendant the moment I saw it. I will wear it all of the time now as a reminder of what the Holy Spirit has done in my life and as a way to spark conversation with others about how the Holy Spirit can make their lives so much better. Thanks for the great service and for offering unique choices!

Edward ScissorhandsDirector: Tim Burton
Cast: Johnny Depp, Winona Ryder, Dianne Wiest
View All Available Formats & Editions
Tim Burton's Edward Scissorhands opens as an eccentric inventor (Vincent Price) lovingly assembles a synthetic youth named Edward (Johnny Depp). Edward has all the essential ingredients for today's standard body, with the exception of a pair of hands. For what is initially thought to be a temporary period, he is fitted with long, scissor-like extremities that, while able to trim a mean hedge, are hardly conducive to day-to-day life. When the kindly inventor dies, however, Edward is left lonely and cursed with some very heavy metal for hands. He is eventually taken in by Peg Boggs (Dianne Weist), an Avon lady who takes pity on him after seeing his bleak existence. Edward, in spite of his inherent ability to slay anyone he comes across, is a gentle soul whose only wish is to be loved. His impromptu family has, at best, a limited understanding of Edward, but he finds himself drawn to Peg's weary but sympathetic daughter, Kim (Winona Ryder), who is dating Jim (Anthony Michael Hall), the neighborhood bully. Meanwhile, Edward finds himself a local celebrity after the town realizes that his talents include creative hedge trimming and an unrivaled ability to cut hair. His so-called friends are proven fair-weather when Edward is accused of a crime, after which his only supporters are Peg and Kim. ~ Tracie Cooper

This Allegorical tale about judgment and selective hearing is sure to haunt you and charm you. Edward's story id told with superb acting and passion. This funny/sad film is (in my opinion) Tim Burton's best!
Tim Burton's second best film, the first being Nightmare Before Christmas. This film captures anti-social, depressed, feel like you're going to destroy everything individual. This is Tim Burton's most involved film. The DVD is widescreen, great sound and a cool menu in which a book folds out to a castle. If you're a Tim Burton fan, I highly recommend you buy this DVD.
The story-line for Edward Scissorhands exeeds all expectations that one may have. Tim Burton again shows another great performance. Johnny Depp is also a great addition to the movie.
This moved me in a way few other movies have. The meaning of the movie is profound. The performances by Johhny Depp and Winona Ryder are absolutely phenomenal. The imagery is moving in this very beautiful movie. It is so emotional and wonderful. I highly recommend it.
This movie is really amazing. It's Tim Burtons version of Beauty and the Beast meets Pinnocio(however it's spelled). This movie is one of my favorites
This movie made me look at someone that was different and say''there's nothing wrong with them.'' This movie gave thrills and spills. Even though this movie made me cry it was really inlightening.
Edward Scissorhands is based on the story starring Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder. An inventor decided to make a man, but died before Edward, the man he invented, could have hands. Edward was left with scissors for hands. This movie is a very great movie. It has a mixture of love scenes, also, some funny parts, and some sad. I like this mainly because of Johnny Depp is in it. Also, it has a mixture of emotions.
It is really funny, sad, and romantic at the same time. It is the kind of movie that you can't help but like!If you like Johnny Depp, you'll love it. It is Depptastic!!!!
This movie was soooo great! It made me cry and it was hilarious at times. I watched it four times in one day. I love johnny depp and I thought alan arkin was funny too. I would recommend this to everyone!!!!
I remember watching this movie as a little kid,maybe 8-years-old,and I vividly remember the part where Edward is sitting alone on a curb when the town is searching for him and a shaggy dog comes and sits next to him,Edward reaches over and clips the hair from the dog's eyes,and the dog licks him in the face,that part made me really sad,I almost cried at the end. And Johnny Depp is so young in this movie compared to the deep tan and bumbling words in Pirates of the Carribian,this movie brings out the softer innocent side of the A-list badboy Depp,bolth movies he did an astounding job!I absolutly love him! I know he's in alot of Tim Burton's films,a good actor for them indeed!
This movie touched me like no other has ever, I'll never forget Edward Scissorhands, he is my reason for living. Tim Burton is a genius and Johnny Depp's performance was truly touching. This movie will always ALWAYS have a place in the dark and shadowy space I call my soul...
This is the first movie I saw Johnny Depp in and I immediately feel in love with him.I've seen every movie he's made but this is definitly my favorite!He's so innocent and vulnerable it just makes him even cutter.This movie definitly has a special place in my heart. What makes this movie so great(besides Johnny)is it's not a sappy love story, and has great actors!
In Edward Scissorhands we see how the world corrupts the innocent. Edward is a magnificent creation and symbolizes how fragile humans truly are. If you enjoy learning about life and are intouch with your emotions you would be proud to say you've seen this movie.Johnny Deep is a talented actor and brings life to his misunderstood character. While Winona Rider finds her self in love with the sheldered man of mystery. Edward Scissorhands is a work of art, and you can obviuosly see how creative of a mind Tim Burton has.
I've seen this movie when I was younger and I just saw it again about a month ago and I don't know what I would do without this movie. Tim Burton is one of my favorite directors and this movie is very typical of him. Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder were amazing together. This movie shows you what its like to be different and descriminating against others because of the way that they look which is a huge problem in our society. I think that Tim Burton has outdone himself with this movie. The costumes and makeup is amazing, along with the whole cast from the mother, to Edward himself. THis movie is one that would appeal to audiences of all ages, whether you like a little drama or a comedy this movie would be recommended for you.
Incredible. Thats what this movie is. I watch this movie every christmas eve. Even though it is a little weird i do it any way. It is so great. This movie is so fantastic i could not get enough of. Johnny depp and wynona ryder are awsome.
This movie is one for all ages. Tim Burton can make good movies and this might just be the best he's made in my opinion. Johny Depp also suits the role for Edward perfectly,just the man for the job! Not just Johny but the rest of the actors are very good also.

By Ms. Brittany Carlson (IMCOM)March 22, 2011
STUTTGART, Germany -- Adapting to change and recovering from adversity are vital skills that service members and their families can learn.
To help foster resilience in the Stuttgart military community, the U.S. Army Garrison Stuttgart Religious Support Office hosted an in-service training day for professionals working with military populations March 4.
The training, titled "Strengthening Resilience in Soldiers and Families," was funded through combined chapel tithes and offerings.
The class was taught by Dr. Becky Powell, director of religious education for the USAG Baden-Wuerttemberg Chaplain's Office, and guest speaker Dr. Paulette Martinez Bethel, founder of Land On Your Feet, LLC, a consultancy dedicated to helping military and expatriate families successfully adjust to new cultures and environments. Powell has also provided resiliency training to USAG Kaiserslautern for three years.
The training provided professionals with resources and skills "to reach out and provide support, information and knowledge; to rebuild [resiliency] if it's been lost; strengthen it, if it's already there, and overcome adversity," Bethel said.
Thirty-four people attended, including school psychologists and counselors, parents, Military Family Life Consultants and leaders in religious education.
"Most of the people at the workshop work with adolescents," said Jim Sciegel, USAG Stuttgart religious education director. "That became the focus - how [to] help kids work with resiliency. It's a critical topic for us."
During the class, Bethel and Powell discussed practical ways for participants to help children become more resilient.
One method is to build "social scaffolding," also known as a support network, Powell said.
Trusted adults can impact a young person's "scaffold" by investing in their lives and introducing them to positive role models and friends, she added.
The practical application was important for training participants Corrie Butz and Cody Salomon, who work with Child, Youth and School Services.
Butz, the director of the Panzer School Age Services and Youth Services, said she learned the importance of reaching out to other organizations for help.
"If I see a youth who is struggling, I can connect [him or her] with a Military Family Life Consultant or school counselor ... instead of just keeping it within our own organization," Butz said.
Salomon, a CYS Services child and youth program assistant, is already planning to adjust the way newcomers are greeted. "We get a lot of teens just coming to the center; they walk in to look at what we have to offer," he said. "One quick thing [I can do] is take them and introduce them to beneficial friends ... people that can help them hold up."
On March 5, trainers Bethel and Powell also gave a presentation to 15 youth ministry workers from throughout Europe.
Nick Laurenzana, one of three USAG Stuttgart chapel youth leaders in attendance, said the training gave him a new perspective on the emotional and psychological stress military adolescents go through during a move or a parent's deployment. "It's just a lot of weight," he said.
He also said he realized how youth ministry helps teens become more resilient by providing a setting in which to talk to trusted adults, peers and God.
"What we do has a bigger impact on a student than just spiritual impact," he said. "We're giving them tools for post-traumatic growth during some of the most difficult times in life."
Due to the positive feedback from the event, Sciegel said the RSO will provide the training annually, and plans to add more content for parents.
"At this point, we've made a commitment to Dr. Powell that next year will be Season 2," he said.

Gigabyte 8N-SLI Royal, the other SLI alternative
While the nVidia nForce 4 Intel Edition SLI isn't the newest chipset on the market, it's now a more affordable solution, thanks to the introduction of the nForce 4 SLI x16 chipset as the high performance model. This now gives motherboard makers the option of using the older chipset to make a cheaper Intel nForce 4 based motherboard.
Recently we took a look at the 8N-SLI Quad Royal from Gigabyte, the flagship of the nForce 4 Intel SLI line with four PCI Express x16 ports for Quad SLI. While this does look and sound interesting, it's not really practical as a full features SLI setup, as there are limited expansion options. When Quad SLI makes its market debut, this motherboard will shine, but for now we need a mainstream board to handle the more sane hardware enthusiasts out there and this is it.
Today we take a look at the Gigabyte 8N-SLI Royal - maybe the next best thing to a Quad Royal? Let's have a look and see what's on offer.

September, 2015 Restoration Project Status
Phase 1A – Work is complete at the Wildcat site on the North Fork; Wildcat Diversion Dam and conveyance system (including Wildcat pipeline and canal) were removed in 2010. A fish barrier weir on Baldwin Creek was constructed in 2013. Fish screens and fish ladders have been constructed at the Eagle Canyon Diversion Dam and North Battle Creek Feeder (NBCF) Diversion Dam sites on the North Fork; however, as the result of hydraulic evaluations of these new facilities (in 2012) and physical modeling of the NBCF fish ladder and fish screen (in early 2013), it was determined that modifications are necessary at the NBCF site to improve the canal diversion, fish screening and fish passage, and to address safety requirements. A contract is planned to be awarded in April 2016 to implement these modifications through 2017.
Phase 1B – Construction of an Inskip Powerhouse mile long bypass and tailrace connector on the South Fork was completed at the end of 2012, however, in early December 2012 a significant storm event occurred, which damaged the newly constructed access roads and drainage system, and created erosion at the penstock bypass and tailrace connector outlets. Access road repairs and sediment erosion cleanup occurred in 2013; and safety and facility access improvements occurred in 2014, and are being completed in 2015.
Phase 2 – Design efforts are proceeding and will incorporate 2015- 2016 fish screen and ladder physical modeling results. Project construction on the remainder of the South Fork, and on its tributaries, is planned to occur under two contracts. One contract, to install a fish screen and ladder at Inskip Diversion Dam, construct a tailrace tunnel connector from South Powerhouse to Inskip Canal, and remove Lower Ripley Creek Feeder and Coleman Diversion Dams, is anticipated to be awarded in 2017 and be completed 2020. Another contract, to remove the Soap Creek Feeder Diversion Dam and the South Diversion Dam and conveyance system (including the removal of South canal), is also anticipated to be awarded in 2018 and be completed in 2020.
Adaptive Management
Processes to ensure fisheries objectives and goals are met will occur beyond 2020.
Battle Creek Restoration Project (BCRP) Adaptive Management –The Restoration Project Adaptive Management Plan (AMP) was completed in 2004; its' goal is to implement specific actions to protect, restore, enhance and monitor salmonid habitat associated with FERC Project No. 1121 within the Restoration Project area to guard against false attraction of adult migrants, and ensure that Chinook salmon and steelhead are able to fully access and utilize available habitat in a manner that benefits all life stages and thereby maximizes natural productions, fully utilizing ecosystem carrying capacity.
Coleman National Fish Hatchery (CNFH) Adaptive Management – CNFH is located downstream of the Restoration Project area on the main stem of Battle Creek. CNFH is funded by Reclamation, owned and operated by USFWS, and guided by USFWS policy and other state and federal laws. The CNFH AMP is in development, and will include solutions and processes to support CNFH programs, operations and infrastructure so that hatchery mitigation goals and objectives are achieved and there is compatibility with the Battle Creek Restoration Project. Completion of the CNFH AMP is anticipated n 2016.
Integrated Framework for Adaptive Management in Battle Creek – The Restoration Project 1999 MOU partners; Reclamation, USFWS, NMFS, CDFW, and PG&E, are committed to coordinate CNFH AMP and Restoration Project AMP efforts to form a single integrated framework for adaptive management in Battle Creek. An Integrated Monitoring Plan and a Team Charter are currently in development, and will define integrated Restoration Project and CNFH adaptive management processes for monitoring, evaluation, and decision making.

Twitter, for some professional golfers, apparently is akin to, say, playing the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass — tough to avoid trouble, though with a wedge or 9-iron in your hands it probably shouldn't be.
Web.com Tour player Tom Gillis, 45, who has previously played on the PGA Tour and the European Tour, is the latest golfer to have found trouble via Twitter, with two Tweets that have rankled the membership at Crestview Country Club, site of the Air Capital Classic in Wichita, Kan., and has tour officials investigating. Here are the Tweets:
[#twitter: https://twitter.com/tcgillis/statuses/479663119011049472] [#twitter: https://twitter.com/tcgillis/statuses/479663528387694592]
"I probably made the mistake of lumping everybody at the club into having a high opinion of themselves, when really there was one particular lady that was going to come out and chip balls because she didn't care," Gillis told Scott Paske of the Wichita Eagle on Friday. "She was mad that the tour was here because I heard her say it. She was 10 feet from me."
Tournament director Roy Turner took exception to the Tweets — "I think it's very poor on the player's behalf, and I'm not very pleased. "It hurts. It really does," he told Paske — and made Web.com Tour official Tom Hearn aware of them.
The tour does not discuss disciplinary issues, so we've likely heard the last of it.
Earlier this year, Champions Tour player Steve Elkington found himself in trouble for a Tweet about Michael Sam, a gay NFL prospect. Then another Web.com Tour player, Josh Broadaway, brought unwanted attention to himself for a Twitter rant directed at Nick Faldo for opting to play in the RBC Heritage.
UPDATE: Via Twitter, fellow competitor Colt Knost (though misidentifying the name of the club) came to the defense of Gillis, who apparently did not receive a warm welcome at the raucous 17th hole on Saturday. Gillis, to his credit, downplayed the incident:

Looks like retail is getting slammed particularly hard today. Even ARO is down over 4.5% and it seems to be liked a lot. Think BKE crashes like it did last May?
I'm expecting a decent retail summer. Hear that inventories are tending to be low, expenses cut, consumer doing OK if not great. The funds always have to churn stuff around to make it look like they're doing something, imo.
Man, BKE is getting killed. Down 7% on no news. Gotta love P/E 13.3 if you're a buyer here.

I just got one of these about a week ago as a gift from my good friend John, who knows I'm a crazy fanatic of all things Monkey Island :) I cannot convey how thrilled and excited I was when I opened his gift and found this inside!
This statue was intended as an exclusive from Star Wars Shop but can also be purchased through Symbiote Studios website.
It's made of high quality resin and is much larger than many similar statuettes. It comes in 9 pieces that are held in place with small metal rods. They're fairly loosely set, but I found dabbing a bit of crazy glue onto the poles did the trick for keeping them firmly in place. It comes pre wrapped from Star Wars Shop and packaged in a large box decorated with illustrations from the game.
With just 1000 of these being made and only 200 sold to date, Lucas Arts fans should be excited to take advantage of the discount currently available on this great piece.
Finally, a new game toy for my desk at work:)

Streamlining defence acquisitions: the UK experiment

Streamlining Defence Acquisitions: the UK experiment
Image source: Wikimedia commons
The struggle to control the cost and improve the effectiveness of acquiring defence capability has taxed successive Australian governments—but Australia is not alone. A new UK Government white paper outlines a plan to manage the purchasing of defence capability very differently to most other countries by stating its intention to move to a Government Owned Contractor Operated (GOCO) model for running the Defence Equipment and Support Organisation (DE&S).
It sets out the major reasons the DE&S struggles to provide capability on time and within budget and suggests a variety of possible solutions while noting the Secretary of State for Defence's preference for the GOCO model. Critics of Australia's Defence Materiel Organisation (DMO) will be familiar with the three 'root causes' of underperformance:
ï· the DE&S attempts to carry out too many tasks and many of the capabilities are more highly specified than is necessary (referred to as 'overheating'), compounded by the 'conspiracy of optimism' around cost and deadlines
ï· an unstable interface between the MOD and DE&S in which changes are made to projects at various times during the development of the capability and by various people. The DE&S is not truly empowered to say no when it is unhappy with these changes and
ï· the DE&S lacks the proper range of people with skills in project management as well as commercial and financial expertise and engineers. The report states that these 'have a much higher market value than can be recognised within the civil service framework'.
This move to the GOCO model was first flagged by the Chief of Defence Materiel, Bernard Gray, in his 2009 report on defence acquisition reform. Gray's conclusions were reinforced in a 2011 report which agreed with the previous report and noted the need for system-wide transformation.
If indeed the British Government decides to privatise the DE&S, it would be an unprecedented and potentially controversial move because all acquisition, from procurement to whole-of-life support and disposal, will be organised by a private contractor instead of a government department.
In general, the acquisition of military capability in the US, UK and Australia is handled by the public service. For example, Australian capability acquisitions are organised by two sections within the Department of Defence. Initially, the Defence Capability Group (CDG) researches capability needs. Once a suitable capability has been developed or sourced, the project is transferred to the DMO. The projects are managed by DMO Project Managers who closely collaborate with private contractors to deliver the desired capability.
In a bid to cut costs and streamline processes, the government proposes to transform the DE&S into a GOCO organisation over which the UK Government would retain strategic control, but which has substantial operating freedom and is incentivised through a performance-based contract. Aside from the fact that the contractor might be foreign-owned (provided it is registered in the UK), little else is known about how such a privatised system would work. In a February 2013 report released by the Commons Defence Select Committee, British MPs were highly critical of the move to privatise DE&S and raised 34 points they believed needed addressing.
Moreover, many critics have highlighted that project scope and budgets often change due to shifting requirements and it remains doubtful whether a private company would have the flexibility to cater for such changing needs. However, the UK Government believes that accommodating change has significantly contributed to cost blowouts and is a primary reason for creating a more rigid system. The money-saving element of this initiative is also being questioned, with critics arguing project costs will likely rise and parliamentary scrutiny of public expenditure and accountability will be removed.
The US Department of Defense is also concerned about the GOCO initiative, particularly because US military secrets will necessarily be divulged during the British acquisition of US military technologies and capabilities. The DoD and the UK MoD have established a small interagency team to study the impact of the change and how it might best be handled.
To argue the case for the GOCO model, Gray cites the British privatisation of nuclear weapons development. However, a study released in 2012 by the Royal United Services Institute concluded:
The DE&S acquisition and management function in defence is much more diverse and complex than the development, production and support of nuclear weapons. Thus the GOCO model of the Atomic Weapons Establishment, where industry works under close supervision on a limited range of tasks, cannot be taken as a model.
The same study highlighted that the US had previously unsuccessfully attempted a similar initiative and had returned to the traditional procurement model at great cost and time delays.
The privatisation of DE&S was due to be completed by 2013, but is now expected to be completed next year. Currently, requests for tenders are being advertised for lead companies. Following a cost benefit analysis of the new model versus the status quo, a decision about the future of the DE&S is expected to be made in 2014.

Saying it's a matter both of science and of faith, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist has decided to back expanded federal funding for embryonic stem cell research.
Frist is a heart-lung transplant surgeon, and opposes abortion. While research is still in its early stages, Frist told colleagues today that expanding it would lead to scientific advances and "bridge the moral and ethical differences" that have made the issue so controversial.
The move puts Frist at odds with President Bush, who has threatened to veto proposals to expand federal support for stem cell research. It also could affect Frist's standing with religious conservatives, amid speculation he could seek the White House in 2008.

It's just sick.
I can't think of another word to describe the performance I saw on Saturday afternoon.
It was a gray, rainy day in Columbia, Missouri, yet that didn't seem to make one iota of difference for Chase Daniel and the rest of the Missouri offense.
Mizzou scored on its first 10 possessions of the game.
That's just not supposed to happen.
Nevada is not a pushover or a lesser opponent. The Wolf Pack is a pretty solid team, consistently finishing in the top half of the Western Athletic Conference. They have a Hall of Fame coach in Chris Ault, and an unconventional offense in the Pistol.
When the schedule came out for this fall, I was actually a bit worried about the Nevada game—and when I saw that the Wolf Pack held Graham Harrell to 19 of 46 for 297 yards and only one touchdown (against two interceptions), I thought that Chase and the boys would struggle.
In the last two games, against SEMO and Nevada, Chase is 39 of 45 for 650 yards, seven touchdowns, and no interceptions. Those are Playstation-esque numbers. That's not supposed to happen.
I know, I know: The offense struggled a bit in the second half of the Illinois game. But they still hung 52 on the Illini.
They hung 52 on SEMO.
They hung 69 on Nevada.
Again, you know I preach a philosophy of tempered optimism when it comes to watching this Missouri Tigers squad. I don't want to get my hopes up too high, and I don't expect them to continue at this blistering rate—not with games at Nebraska and Texas in two of the first three weeks of October.
But even if they only slow down just a little on offense and get some of the communications problems in the secondary straightened out...
No. I'd better not say anything to jinx what's happening. I'll just bask in the simple joys for now.
