How Does a Court Decide Whether an Employee's Whistleblowing Caused Termination?
In our last post, we discussed the case of Wiest v. Tyco, in which the Third Circuit held that an employer's investigation of unrelated wrongdoing by an employee insulated it against the employee's Sarbanes-Oxley whistleblower retaliation claim. Now, we tackle another piece of the Wiest decision: the court's holding that Wiest's protected activity did not contribute to the adverse action against him.
To establish a Sarbanes-Oxley claim, an employee must show that there was a causal connection between his or her whistleblowing and an adverse employment action. If the employee can't show that link, then he or she can't prevail. In the Wiest case, the court assumed that Wiest did in fact engage in protected whistleblowing activity. But it held that Wiest didn't have evidence to show that the whistleblowing caused the employer to take action against him. Read More ›
Investigation Insulates Employer Against Sarbanes-Oxley Retaliation Claim
An employee who has blown the whistle on wrongdoing is not immune from discipline or termination simply because she has engaged in protected activity.
The Third Circuit's recent decision in Wiest v. Tyco Electronics provides a good example of how an employer can terminate an employee without legal repercussions, even when it is undisputed that the employee was protected against whistleblower retaliation. Read More ›
Sixth Circuit Upholds Financial Planner's Sarbanes-Oxley Win
Section 1514A of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act shields a whistleblower from retaliation if he reports "conduct [that he] reasonably believes" violates certain laws, including Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. Last month, the Sixth Circuit held that the question of a whistleblower's "reasonable belief" is a "simple factual question requiring no subset of findings that the employee had a justifiable belief as to each of the legally-defined elements of the suspected fraud." Rhinehimer v. U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., No. 13-6641 (6th Cir. May 28, 2015). Based on this principle, the court affirmed a $250,000 verdict in favor of the plaintiff, Michael Rhinehimer.
According to the Court's opinion, Rhinehimer was a financial planner for U.S. Bancorp who helped his elderly customer, Norbert Purcell, set up a trust and a brokerage account. In November 2009, Rhinehimer went on disability leave, and asked a colleague not to conduct any transactions with Purcell. The colleague didn't follow the instructions, and instead put Purcell into investments that Rhinehimer believed were unsuitable. (Unsuitability fraud under the securities laws occurs when a broker knows or reasonably believes certain securities to be unsuitable to a client's needs, but recommends them anyway.) Rhinehimer complained about the trades, but his superiors warned him that he should "stay out of the matter" and stop criticizing the colleague. After Rhinehimer hired a lawyer, he was placed on a performance improvement plan and fired after he failed to meet it. Read More ›
L'Oreal Lawyer Claims Company Fired Him When He Wouldn't Pursue Problematic Patents
After firing its head patent attorney, Steven Trzaska, L'Oreal is now under fire from Trzaska in New Jersey federal court. On April 16, 2015, Trzaska sued L'Oreal, claiming that his firing violated New Jersey's Conscientious Employee Protection Act ("CEPA").
In his complaint (available at Law360), Trzaska alleges that L'Oreal had a quota for its New Jersey office of 40 filed patent applications in 2014. But, Trzaska contends, an outside consultant had previously found that many of L'Oreal's patent applications were purely cosmetic, saying that "the vast majority of its inventions were of low or poor quality." Trzaska alleges that his superiors pressured him to file applications to meet the quota. However, he told them that "neither he nor the patent attorneys who reported to him were willing to file patent applications that the attorneys believed were not patentable." Soon after, L'Oreal terminated him, saying that it was hiring a new "head of patents of the Americas." Trzaska claims that this explanation was pretext and that the company in fact fired him because he refused to file applications that were not patentable.
How do Trzaska's claims line up with CEPA? Read More ›
The Inbox – This One's for the Birds
Craig Watts, a chicken farmer from North Carolina, recently brought a whistleblower complaint against Perdue, claiming that the poultry seller retaliated against him for bringing certain animal welfare claims to light. Mr. Watts owns the farm on which the chickens are raised, but, according to the Government Accountability Project, the terms and conditions of the farm operations are strictly governed by the poultry giant. The Food Integrity Campaign (a program operated by the Government Accountability Project) filed the action on behalf of Mr. Watts, defending his right to speak out about the conditions on the farm, which Watts claims run far "afowl" of Perdue's marketing claims of "cage-free" and "humanely-raised" chickens. After publicizing the conditions on his farm, Watts was placed on a performance improvement plan and is routinely subjected to surprise audits of his farm.
A former executive at L.A.'s Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising is seeing red over the school's termination of her employment, which allegedly came after she demanded more diverse branding in the school's publications. Tamar Rosenthal filed a civil rights complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court alleging that the school, seemingly interested only in shades of white, opposed her attempts to showcase student diversity on the website and explicitly advised her not to showcase gay, black or non-white students in any school publications. According to My News LA, the complaint further alleged that Ms. Rosenthal's supervisors created an "ultra-conservative, anti-Arab and anti-Muslim political atmosphere in the school's front office."

Fourth Circuit Upholds Jury's Sarbanes-Oxley Award of Emotional Distress Damages to Fired CFO
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act's whistleblower protection provision, 18 U.S.C. § 1514A, allows a wrongfully terminated whistleblower to recover "all relief necessary to make [her] whole." 18 U.S.C. § 1514A(c)(1). The statute then goes on to say that compensatory damages include reinstatement, back pay, and "special damages," including expert fees and reasonable attorneys fees. In an opinion issued this week, the Fourth Circuit held that Sarbanes-Oxley damages don't just include these enumerated damages. Rather, an employee can obtain other compensation for harm, including emotional distress damages. Jones v. SouthPeak Interactive Corp. of Delaware, Nos. 13-2399, 14-1765 (4th Cir. Jan. 26, 2015).
The plaintiff in the case, Andrea Gail Jones, was the former chief financial officer of SouthPeak, a video game manufacturer. According to the opinion, in 2009, SouthPeak wanted to buy copies of a video game for distribution, but didn't have the cash to buy the games up front. Instead, SouthPeak's chairman, Terry Phillips, personally fronted Nintendo over $300,000. When SouthPeak didn't record this debt, Jones raised a stink, eventually telling the company's outside counsel that the company was committing fraud. The same day, the company's board fired her.

Supreme Court Holds That TSA Whistleblower's Disclosure Wasn't "Prohibited by Law"
Last November, we covered the Supreme Court oral argument in the case of Department of Homeland Security v. MacLean. As a refresher, MacLean was an air marshal who was fired by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) after he blew the whistle to MSNBC on the agency's plan to cancel marshal missions to Las Vegas. After the argument, Prof. Steve Vladeck of American University predicted that the TSA would lose the case.
He was right. On Wednesday, the Supreme Court issued its opinion, in which it held in favor of MacLean. The TSA argued that it could fire MacLean because his disclosures were "specifically prohibited by law" in two ways: first, it had adopted regulations on sensitive security information, which applied to the information MacLean disclosed; second, a provision of the U.S. Code had authorized TSA to adopt those regulations. Chief Justice Roberts, writing for the Court, rejected both arguments.
As to the regulations, he wrote, Congress could have said that whistleblowers were not protected if their disclosures were "specifically prohibited by law, rule, or regulation," but did not. Thus, its choice to only use the word "law" appeared to be deliberate. Further, interpreting the word "law" broadly "could defeat the purpose of the whistleblower statute," because an agency could insulate itself from liability by promulgating a regulation that prohibited whistleblowing. And as to the argument that Congress-passed "law" prohibited the disclosure, Chief Justice Roberts wrote that the statute in question did not prohibit MacLean's disclosures. Instead, it was the agency's exercise of discretion, not the statute, that determined what disclosures were prohibited. Read More ›
Five Issues in Executive Disputes to Watch in 2015
In our last post, we counted down our most popular posts of 2014, from A-Rod to Walgreen. Now it's time to take a look at the issues in executive disputes that are likely to draw plenty of attention in 2015.
1. Dodd-Frank Bounties and Whistleblower Litigation on the Rise
In November 2014, the SEC released its annual report on its Dodd-Frank whistleblower award program. The theme of the report is that Dodd-Frank is paying off – both for the SEC and for whistleblowing employees. The SEC reported that it issued whistleblower awards to more people in its 2014 fiscal year than in all previous years combined, including a $30 million bounty to one whistleblower in a foreign country. The number of whistleblower tips received continues to increase, and we expect news of more substantial awards in 2015. Meanwhile, litigation over various Dodd-Frank issues, such as whether a whistleblower claim is subject to arbitration, whether the shield against whistleblower retaliation applies overseas, and whether a whistleblower must report to the SEC in order to bring a retaliation claim, will continue to percolate in the federal courts.
2. The Supreme Court Weighs in on Employment Issues
A couple of key Supreme Court cases will address employee rights that apply across the board, from the C-suite to the assembly line. In Young v. United Parcel Service, the Court will decide whether, and in what circumstances, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act requires an employer that accommodates non-pregnant employees with work limitations to accommodate pregnant employees who have similar limitations. And in EEOC v. Abercrombie & Fitch Stores, Inc., the Court will address whether an employer can be liable under the Civil Rights Act for refusing to hire an employee based on religion only if the employer actually knew that a religious accommodation was required based on knowledge received directly from the job applicant.

Suits by Suits' Greatest Hits of 2014
Who doesn't love the year-end countdown? We're here to offer you one of our own – our most-read posts in 2014 about executive disputes. The posts run the gamut from A (Alex Rodriguez) to Z, or at least to W (Walgreen). They cover subjects from sanctified (Buddhists and the Bible) to sultry (pornographic materials found in an executive's email). Later this week, we'll bring you a look at what to expect in 2015.
Without further ado, let the countdown begin!
8. The Basics: Dodd-Frank v. Sarbanes-Oxley
This post is an oldie but a goodie. It includes a handy PDF chart that breaks down the differences in the Dodd-Frank and Sarbanes-Oxley whistleblower laws. Each of these laws continues to be a hot-button issue for plaintiffs and employers.
7. When Employment Relationships Break Bad
America may have bidden adieu to Walter White and his pals on Breaking Bad, but employment relationships continue to spin off in some very unpleasant ways. Such was the case with Stephen Marty Ward, who ended up in federal prison after he threatened his employer with disclosure of its trade secrets, as we covered in this post. Read More ›
Fired for Taking the Fifth: Part 1 – The Private Sector Employee
Recently, in a government investigation by the civil division of a United States Attorney's Office, an employee of a private company was deposed pursuant to a Civil Investigative Demand (CID). The employee, on the advice of counsel, refused to answer questions on certain topics and invoked the Fifth Amendment right against compulsory self-incrimination (she "took the Fifth" in common shorthand). Several days later, she was fired by her employer for taking the Fifth. (The employer claimed that it wanted to show cooperation with the government's investigation and taking the Fifth is viewed as being non-cooperative.) When I recounted this story to my non-lawyer fiancée, he was outraged and wondered how could her employer do such a thing? Wasn't this retaliation? Didn't she have a clear wrongful termination claim against her employer? Good questions. While most, if not all, states (and the federal government) have enacted provisions to protect employees who blow the whistle on illegal activity from retaliatory discharge, is there any protection from discharge for an employee of a private company who chooses to keep mum to protect herself?
The short answer is no.
In our Bill of Rights, No. 5, it is written that "[n]o person … shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself." Although the text limits the right to stay silent in a criminal case, it is generally accepted that a witness may assert the right in any context in which the witness fears his/her statements may later be used against him/her. Thus, as an American I have the right to refuse to answer questions or offer information which I fear could incriminate me. [A full discussion of the scope of Fifth Amendment protection is beyond the scope of this post. To learn more about the Fifth Amendment protections against self-incrimination, I refer the reader to The Privilege of Silence, authored by my fellow Zuckerman Spaeder attorneys Steven M. Salky and Paul B. Hynes and available here.] Read More ›

Froch Not Impressed: Groves Has No Chance To Win
Carl Froch insists he is taking George Groves seriously, but has dismissed his chances of victory in the big super-middleweight showdown on November 23.
Froch is preparing to defend his WBA and IBF titles against Groves at the Phones 4u Arena in Manchester, live on Sky Sports Box Office.
The Nottingham fighter has fought at world level for a number of years and holds wins over big names such as Mikkel Kessler, Jermain Taylor and Lucian Bute.
Groves has been handed his first shot at world title and Froch doubts whether the 25-year-old is ready for such a major bout, despite his unbeaten record.
Froch told Sky Sports News: "He's unbeaten in 19 fights and he's got 15 knockouts so that in itself speaks volumes in terms of a record. It's a very good record, he's unbeaten, but you have to look at the opponents he's fought to get to that level and who he's beat and how he's beaten them.
"When you look at his resume he's not boxing the best. He's not boxing the top 10 in the world. He's all of a sudden coming up from the Championship straight up to the Premier League now and a lot of the time if Manchester United play Scunthorpe, there's only going to be one winner. That's usually the case in boxing.
"On paper and as far as I'm concerned, George Groves hasn't got a chance of beating me, but that's not just because he's not fought anyone at my level. He simply isn't good enough in my opinion.
"He's going to try and give himself belief and think he is going to do the business and he'll come and have a go. That in itself poses a threat to me. I've got to be ready for him and I am. I'm very ready."
Froch avenged his defeat to Mikkel Kessler in his last fight, defeating the Dane on points and is keen to face Andre Ward, who inflicted the only other loss on his record.
Mexican star Julio Cesar Chavez Jnr and fearsome puncher Gennady Golovkin have also been mentioned as future opponents and Froch believes some exciting fights could lie ahead.
"Potentially it's a fight people keep talking about. A rematch with Andre Ward, the only guy on my unbelievable resume that I haven't beat," said Froch.
"Andre Ward is a strange one, he's been injured for a while and now he's talking about doing light-heavyweight. It's difficult for him to get fights because he's so effective at what he does.
"He's a very, very awkward fighter. He knows how to win. I'm not going to say he's not a good fighter, he's beaten me, but he's not exciting. The TV broadcasters haven't quite got hold of him. HBO in American don't really get excited when they talk about Andre Ward.
"Unless that changes, after I have beaten George Groves that is definitely and option for me but there's Julio Cesar Chavez Jnr, a young wild kid. Chavez was a legend, his dad, he's a big name in Mexico so that's a massive fight.
"There's also a guy who is quite frightening looking when you watch him fight, Gennady Golovkin, triple G, he's a middleweight looking to come up to super-middle. So there's Chavez, there's Golovkin and there's potentially a rematch with Ward."

More Directors Face Yearly Votes
More U.S. corporate directors are getting ready to face yearly re-election votes.
This proxy season, an unusually high proportion of companies have accepted activists' demands that all board members stand for annual elections by shareholders, replacing staggered terms for directors that typically last three years. Proponents of the popular corporate-governance measure say it boosts a board's accountability on key issues like acquisitions and executive pay.
Classified boards, or boards whose members usually have the staggered three-year terms, discourage hostile takeovers. It is tough for outsiders to alter a board's composition when only a third of the directors are up for re-election each year.
The Florida State Board of Administration and the Nathan Cummings Foundation, advised by Harvard law professor Lucian Bebchuk, recently dropped half of 28 resolutions seeking yearly elections after 14 of the big companies they targeted agreed—ahead of a vote—to support the change at 2011 or 2012 annual meetings. Among them are Life Technologies Corp. LIFE -2.12 % and Eaton Corp. ETN 1.83 % , whose boards now want investors to approve the switch at their annual meetings later this month.
The institutional investors had separately identified the 14 potential targets among companies where they hold shares. Cummings had never introduced a declassification resolution before, and the Florida agency hadn't done so in nearly 20 years
Investors rarely withdraw annual-election resolutions because the company decides to endorse their idea. Fewer than 25% of such proposals offered by stockholders between 2005 and 2010 failed to reach a vote for any reason, including negotiated settlements, according to ISS, a proxy-advisory firm. "The shift reflects a changing culture in the boardroom and directors' increased efforts at bridge building," says Stephen Davis, head of the Millstein Center for Corporate Governance and Performance at Yale University's School of Management.
Staggered boards began to stir an investor outcry a decade ago. Nonbinding measures favoring annual elections garnered majority support, on average, every year since 2000, ISS says. The number of Standard & Poor's 500 companies with classified boards has fallen to 139 from 303 in 1998, according to research firm FactSet SharkRepellent. Among them: McDonald's Corp. MCD -1.45 % , Best Buy Co. BBY -1.49 % and Juniper Networks Inc. JNPR -0.46 %
But now, some companies are embracing annual elections without the impetus of a vote on a shareholder proposal, partly because board members already feel vulnerable: Many major corporations recently adopted rules requiring, for instance, that directors in uncontested elections win a majority of votes cast.
A majority-vote rule at Life Technologies influenced its endorsement of annual elections following talks with Cummings, the investor that submitted this year's resolution at Life Technologies and 13 other companies and won commitments from half of them.
"You can't make a decision about annual elections without taking into account the broader evolution of corporate governance that's taking place" such as majority-voting rules, says John Cottingham, chief legal officer at Life Technologies. However, he cautions, directors "are not governing the company worried about their re-election."
If annual meeting attendees clear the change April 28, the entire board of the life-sciences concern will face yearly re-election starting in 2014. The same timetable looms at Eaton, another target with which Cummings succeeded. The diversified manufacturer holds its annual meeting April 27.
"A classified board may contribute to diminished director accountability," Eaton said in its latest proxy statement. "Many investors believe that the election of directors is the primary means for shareholders to influence policies."
Lance Lindblom, president and chief executive officer of Cummings, believes annual board elections "are a big deal because they really affect other governance issues."
Mr. Bebchuk and a colleague at American Corporate Governance Institute LLC, a new research and advisory group Mr. Bebchuk heads, helped Cummings and the Florida agency so each institution could identify 14 businesses for annual-election proposals. The agency, a veteran activist investor, oversees public-employee pension funds with assets of about $150 billion.
Board declassification "could be expected to benefit shareholders by improving firm value and performance," Mr. Bebchuk says.
The Florida agency's resolution "was a catalyst" for Biogen Idec Inc. BIIB -1.27 % directors after it previously rejected declassification, recalls Naomi Aoki, a spokeswoman for the biotechnology business. Shareholders will vote on the idea June 2.
If it wins shareholder support, every director will stand for a one-year term starting that day. Their immediate election would be "an even more accelerated time frame than the state of Florida had proposed," Ms. Aoki notes. Three of Biogen's 12 directors represent Carl Icahn, a wealthy activist investor.
This year's push for yearly elections didn't go very smoothly at CME Group Inc., CME 0.58 % owner of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Terrence A. Duffy, executive chairman, and Daniel Glickman, chairman of the board's governance committee, conferred by phone with Cummings and ACGI officials about the resolution in early January, according to a person close to the situation.
Negotiations lasted two months. During that time, CME asked the Securities and Exchange Commission for permission to exclude the proposal from this year's ballot.
The board discussed the declassification resolution and agreed to seek shareholder approval of yearly director contests at the 2012 annual meeting, a CME spokesman says. He declined to comment on who participated in the talks with Cummings and ACGI. The SEC had yet to act when CME settled with Cummings.
EBay Inc. EBAY -0.28 % met Cummings halfway. The online-auction company refused to endorse the foundation's 2011 measure. Its board instead expects to complete a review of its classified structure by July, says Kathy Chui, an eBay spokeswoman.
In Mr. Cottingham's view, wider acceptance of annual elections appears inevitable. "Classified boards are going to disappear because that's what shareholders want," the Life Technologies executive predicts.

Yet another season has come and gone for Arsenal, and an all too familiar empty feeling is once again in the hearts of the Gunners faithful.
Going on its sixth straight trophiless season, the North London side could see a number of familiar faces depart this summer in the transfer market as a massive overhaul of personnel is arguably due for Arsenal.
Manager Arsene Wenger has reportedly been promised a "large sum of funds" this summer and may deviate from his preferred style of buying and developing young players to now exploring the market for big-name talent.
With that being said, there is a good possibility that some familiar faces could be departing the Gunners this summer.

Maybe you're using a great home stereo system, but even with a large-screen HDTV and buttered popcorn, you might not achieve the "movie theater" effect. That's because sound systems in movie theaters use surround sound technology. And without that, you're just watching plain old TV.
To create dimensions with surround sound, audio is split into multiple channels so that different information can be supplied to different speakers. Information for these channels may be found on a soundtrack or created by processing in an audio receiver.
The number of full range channels is indicated by the first digit in figures like "5.1" or "7.1". The ".1" refers to the Low Frequency Effects channel. A 5.1 orientation is supported by audio technologies like Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro Logic II – formats found on most DVDs and Blu-ray discs – and you may occasionally find formats supporting a 6.1 orientation. Recently, new technologies such as Dolby Pro Logic IIz and Audyssey DSX have further expanded surround sound to seven or more channels.
Ultimately, the orientation you choose will depend on your listening preferences. So, while a 5.1 receiver will give you actual surround sound, if you have space for more speakers and are willing to spend more for a more realistic soundstage, you might want a 7.1 or 7.2 receiver.
For those who want to enjoy true surround sound at home, Denon has created the DHT-1513BA Home Theater System. It comes with our AVR-1513 3D Pass-Through 5.1 Channel Receiver and a premium surround sound speaker system from Boston Acoustics. The discrete circuitry of the receiver enables the faithful reproduction of surround sound while built-in audio technologies from Audyssey optimize your system's sound quality and performance. It is also equipped with an array of decoders including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio.
Realizing that 7.1 surround sound is fast becoming the studio and home theater standard, Denon has developed two excellent home theater receivers that allow you to recreate the cinematic audio experience at home. The AVR-1913 7.1 3D Pass-Through Networking Home Theater Receiver with AirPlay comes equipped with a built-in upscaler for HD and all the surround sound decoders found in the AVR-1513 plus Dolby Digital Surround EX and Dolby Pro Logic IIz. With powered zone-2 capability, you have the option of reassigning power amps to use the additional channels for audio in another room.
Our AVR-3313CI 7.2 4K & 3D Pass-Through Home Theater Receiver gives you an additional subwoofer output for optimal bass performance, more watts per channel for even more dynamic surround sound, an advanced 4K upscaler, Audyssey DSX technology, three-source, three-zone capability, and a whole lot more.

colorado weekend riding
Hi there,
Arriving on holiday for first day riding on a Sunday, I've heard of the shitty queues at a lot of the resorts in CO. I have a EPIC local pass so ideally looking at one of their mountains and using free bus service (from Frisco) so either the Breck, Keystone or A basin, or.... I could pay for shuttle to Vail, or pay lift pass for Copper for the day.
I'm thinking A basin would be best option for getting in some decent runs on a Sunday, smaller of course but should be less crowded? And then hit the other big resorts during the week? Am I correct or would I be better off at one of the others? If you have the time, a rating of crowdedness for the resorts above would be great.
Actually Sunday is only busy until about noon after that everyone is fighting to get back to Denver and driving down I 70. Secret is show up early either go up high our out back at any of those resorts then work your way forward as feeding time at the zoo begins. Saturday will be a shit show.
Cool, good to know. Any of those in particular that you mention go high or outback which have good groomed blues and double blues, maybe some mellow park would be awesome.
May sound silly questions, but sometimes hard to get a feel from the trail maps in reality and parks are hardly ever where they say they are. Just its first day of season (summer here) and will be with the wife and, we will have new boards and bindings to get used to, so want to ease into it on the first day
Will be there for the following saturday, so sounds like we should try and time that for a rest day.
Breck you look at the map and that's it. Keystone you look at the map that's it. A basin you look at the map that's it but more wide open.
If you want to ease into it go to Breck and start on Peak 7 or 9. Avoid 8 right off the bat as it funnels people in big time.

America's first and most revolutionary rock musical, "Hair" opened on Broadway in 1968 at the height of the Vietnam War, exploring the counter-culture and anti-war movement prevalent at the time through exciting rock music. This show explores the forces that shaped America in the 1960's including equal rights, sexual freedom and environmental activism. This production contains strong language, adult themes and nudity. This production is rated R.

This is where I had painful results. I had a serious reaction to something in the lipstick (the next morning). It caused my penis to swell 2 times its normal erect width (but it wasn't erect). It was also red, inflammed, and itched badly. To get relief, I had to get a shot in my penis (OUCH!) and put a creme on it. It took about a week before it was back to normal. My advice - avoid these partys!
The results from the rainbow party left me with serious pain!

The more I see and hear out of the big three console makers, the more I'm inclined to believe that this "Next-Gen War" thing will not be won on the hardcore gamer front. I think that Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony are taking that market for granted and clamoring for a different sector to claim as their own.
Could be me juxtaposing what I've read and believe about business onto the situation. Ever since Reggie Fils-Aime mentioned it in a keynote several months ago, I've been a little enamored with a book by the title of Blue Ocean Strategy (and then there's a subtitle, that we won't sweat). Simple concept: instead of duking it out with your competition over the same customers, figure out a different plan, for a different market, and own that market uncontested.
Obviously Nintendo's grabbed that mentality and is riding it as far as they possibly can. They've looked at gamer demographics, and instead of targeting the most popular section (boys 18-25 or whatever), they're looking at age/gender/social status combinations that are considered "non-gamer" and are figuring out what it takes to make them gamers. The DS is the test bed for this theory, and it's proving to work. They've managed to sell non-games like Nintendogs and Brain Age to non-gamers. That's understandably given them the confidence to soldier on with this strategy when marketing the Wii. We've all seen the ads, so I don't need to belabor the point: old people, young people, boys, girls, everyone playing Wii games together. Everything from the design to the interface has been planned to be as simple and nonthreatening as possible, to make it feel completely accessible to everyone.
Sony seems to be directing their focus on a slightly narrower market. While their PR to date has the feel of a slow-motion train wreck, the plan at the very core of this mess is not entirely unsound. The PS3 is no more intended for the diehard gaming audience than is the Wii. Rather, it's positioned to be the high-end home entertainment hub for technophiles. A streaming media center that outputs High Definition video and just happens to let you play cutting-edge video games, online if desired, is the toy for deep-pocketed tech gadget junkies. Many years ago it was big screen TVs. Then it was surround speakers. Then flat panels you could mount on your wall. Then High Definition flat panels you could put on your wall. I'm probably skipping a few items here, but you get the point: There have always been high priced products that people had to have to claim that their home entertainment realm was superior to all others in the land. If the Playstation 3 delivers on its touted abilities (and nothing else gets cut out) then it can take hold in a niche where price really isn't an issue. Look at it: there are speaker sets that cost more than the PS3. Speakers! All they do is make sound!
I'm just surprised that Sony hasn't revealed a prototype for a remote. Or have they and I never saw it? If they're wise, they will, and they'll pack it in every box.
Microsoft... funny that the newest company on the block is the one that's trying the hardest to market to the true blue gamer. Chalk it up to that newness maybe? Either way, it may be a stretch to consider their tactics as being directed to anyone but serious gamers. But I think the direction they're headed with Live Anywhere just might corner the Internet junkies and computer gamers. Think of people who love to chat, to stay in touch. I know I have friends who exist to me only as MSN screen names, and I'm not alone in this. Messenger programs are available to anything that can access the Net now. It's hardly a major leap from MSN name to Gamertag. At least not in the way that Live Anywhere is being pushed. Gamers on Live will pull their non-Live friends into the loop. Like a quasi-pyramid scheme, Microsoft can get its customers to push its product (wonder if there's a referral service in place or in the works?).
These tactics are obviously serving to alienate the foundation of these products' respective successes. Every day there's a complaint from the gaming community about one company or another. Sony's ripping us off. The Wiimote is a stupid gimmick, and no third parties will make good games for Nintendo. Microsoft is raping us with Live microtransactions. Of course gamers won't appreciate it; these strategies aren't directed at them. You'll likely find a much more positive response within the true target audiences. It's only unfortunate that in some ways, the people who would appreciate the latest gaming hardware the most are going to be left in the cold.

– Martin Luther King
Basically sweet potatoes are peeled and then sliced very thinly, and trimmed so the slices will fit into muffin tin cups. The slices are layered in the muffin tin with shredded cheese. (I used the trimmings in the middle of each stack of slices.)
- 1 1/2 pounds small sweet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (I used 2 very large potatoes)
- 1 cup freshly shredded cheese*
- 2/3 cup half-and-half
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 garlic clove, pressed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- * I used a Mexican blend of shredded cheese because I had it on hand and it was delicious. The original recipe calls for either mozzarella or gruyere.
- Preheat oven to 375°. Spray muffin pan with non-stick spray.
- Layer half of sweet potatoes in muffin pan cups. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup shredded cheese. Top with remaining sweet potatoes until each muffin cup is a bit more than full (the stacks shrink when cooked).
- In microwave-safe measuring cup, mix half-and-half, thyme, garlic, salt and pepper. Microwave 1 minute. Pour cream mixture into muffin cups (about 1 Tbsp. per cup).
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake 5 to 7 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly golden.
- Let stand 5 minutes. Lift potato stacks from cups using a spoon or thin spatula and transfer to a serving platter.
- Since the stacks do shrink a bit when cooking, so plan on approximately 2 per serving. I served these with pork tenderloin and a salad and they were enjoyed by all!
- The next morning – leftovers!!

When several members of the Caprock coaching staff traveled to the University of Alabama for a coaching seminar, they came back with more than just new ideas to use on the field. In addition, they also brought in a new attitude that has permeated throughout the Longhorns' program.
In three words: "Roll Rock Roll."
"We're excited about this season," head coach John Gleason said. "Our junior varsity is coming off a winning season. We've had a great off-season with our kids. We've had spring football. And we feel like we have a winning attitude. We feel like we have a group of kids who want to go out winners."
Building a winning attitude is something that has been paramount for the Longhorns during the last several seasons. In each of the last two years, Caprock has been in the hunt for a playoff berth heading into the final weeks of the season.
Marty Eakin: Senior earned all-district honors at linebacker last year.
But whereas those teams had plenty of experience to carry them, the 2001 version of the Longhorns is a much younger unit. Only 13 lettermen remain from last season's team and very few starters are back. Even Caprock's vaunted passing offense took a hit with the graduation of players such as J Fields, Geoffery Ornelas and a veteran offensive line.
While many areas must be addressed, Gleason and his staff are focusing on the basics until his younger players gain more experience.
"We're a young team, so we're trying to get the basic fundamentals down and progress a little bit more in those areas," Gleason said. "We still have kids who can throw, still have kids who can catch and guys who can tackle. I feel we're not going to be limited with the kids we have.
"Sure, we're going to miss a guy like J Fields and some of the other guys we've had here, but we still have kids who can play football."
Steven Contreras: Senior will play a key role at linebacker.
One player who Gleason is expecting to excel this season is senior linebacker Marty Eakin. A rodeo cowboy, Eakin earned all-district honors as a linebacker last season in 3-4A and is one of the team's top leaders.
The same could be said of Steven Contreras and Corey McQurren, players who have been steady influences in the Caprock program for several years. Both figure to be key players at linebacker and defensive back, respectively.
Overall, though, the Longhorns have plenty of positions to fill, many of which will be taken by players called up from the junior varsity.
On offense is where the most noticeable differences will be seen. In each of the last two seasons, Caprock has had a pair of quarterbacks who could throw downfield at will and a hoard of receivers to make plays.
Corey McQurren: Senior will provide leadership on the defense.
Most of those players are gone, although Gleason is excited about 6-foot-5 David Hernandez stepping in at quarterback.
"He's a kid who can throw from one end of the field to the other," Gleason said. "We think he has a lot to offer us."
In the backfield, the Longhorns do have a steady player in senior John White. One of the top returning backs in the district, White led the team in rushing and also proved to be a reliable receiver out of the backfield.
Adding depth to the position, Gleason sees Michael Littlejohn as an

A Reference Equation of State for the Thermodynamic Properties of Nitrogen for Temperatures from 63.151 to 1000 K and Pressures to 2200 MPa29(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1349047View Description Hide Description
A new formulation for the thermodynamic properties of nitrogen has been developed. Many new data sets have become available, including high accuracy data from single and dual-sinker apparatuses which improve the accuracy of the representation of the surface of gaseous, liquid, and supercritical nitrogen, including the saturation states. New measurements of the speed of sound from spherical resonators yield accurate information on caloric properties in gaseous and supercritical nitrogen. Isochoric heat capacity and enthalpy data have also been published. Sophisticated procedures for the optimization of the mathematical structure of equations of state and special functional forms for an improved representation of data in the critical region were used. Constraints regarding the structure of the equation ensure reasonable results up to extreme conditions of temperature and pressure. For calibration applications, the new reference equation is supplemented by a simple but also accurate formulation, valid only for supercritical nitrogen between 250 and 350 K at pressures up to 30 MPa. The uncertainty in density of the new reference equation of state ranges from 0.02% at pressures less than 30 MPa up to 0.6% at very high pressures, except in the range from 270 to 350 K at pressures less than 12 MPa where the uncertainty in density is 0.01%. The equation is valid from the triple point temperature to temperatures of 1000 K and up to pressures of 2200 MPa. From 1000 to 1800 K, the equation was validated with data of limited accuracy. The extrapolation behavior beyond 1800 K is reasonable up to the limits of chemical stability of nitrogen, as indicated by comparison to experimental shock tube data.
Physicochemical Properties of Higher Nonaromatic Hydrocarbons: A Literature Study29(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1347983View Description Hide Description
Few data are available on the behavior of higher aliphatic hydrocarbons in the environment and especially in relation to hydrophobicity. Sorption to soil and bioconcentration by aquatic organisms are examples of processes that can be estimated from hydrophobicity parameters, such as aqueous solubility and octanol-water partition coefficient. A literature study was carried out on these physicochemical properties of aliphatic hydrocarbons containing ten or more carbon atoms. In general, very few experimental data were found, probably as a consequence of the fact that these parameters are very difficult to determine for these compounds. Reliable data on hydrophobicity parameters, for example, were not found for -alkanes higher than tridecane.
IUPAC-NIST Solubility Data Series. 72. Nitromethane with Water or Organic Solvents: Ternary and Quaternary Systems29(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1342856View Description Hide Description
The mutual solubilities and liquid–liquid equilibria of nitromethane ternary and quaternary systems with liquidsolvents are reviewed. The solvents include water, inorganic compounds, and a variety of organic compounds such as hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, acids, esters, and nitrogen compounds. A total of 107 ternary and eight quaternary systems whose properties were described in the chemical literature through 1998 are compiled. For 22 systems, sufficient data were available to allow critical evaluation. All data are expressed as mass and mole fractions as well as the originally reported units. Similar reviews of gas, liquid, and solid solubilities for other systems have been published in the frame of Solubility Data Series. This is the 72 volume of this series.

J. Mayweather: Algieri Not Impressive, Pacquiao Wins Big
By Edward Chaykovsky
Trainer Jeff Mayweather, the uncle of Floyd Mayweather Jr., sees Manny Pacquiao (56-5-2, 38KOs) retaining his WBO welterweight championship on November 22nd in Macau when he faces undefeated challenger Chris Algieri (20-0, 8KOs).
Algieri had an upset in June, winning a twelve round split decision over Ruslan Provodnikov to capture the WBO junior welterweight crown. The fight with Pacquiao takes place at a catch-weight of 144-pounds.
"Algieri, people act like he did such a spectacular with Provodnikov but I thought that fight could have easily went the other way. I don't think that he did anything spectacular, he didn't show me anything that would make me think that Manny Pacquiao has anything to worry about. I think that it's a great fight for Manny, it will put him back on top and back in the winning column," Mayweather told On The Ropes Boxing Radio.
Jeff expects nothing less short of an impressive victory by Pacquiao. He was not impressed at all with Algieri's victory over Provodnikov, which by far is the unbeaten boxer's biggest win.
"To be honest, I'm just not sold on him. He pulled off a squeaker, a fight that could have easily went to the other guy. It was great that he got the decision, but at the same time, it wasn't impressive at all. There was nothing impressive about him to me," Mayweather said.
"For a guy that was supposed to be a boxer, he didn't do a great job of boxing. Don't get me wrong, I do understand the dynamics of the fight, because he was in a phone booth against Provodnikov. Everything was set up for him to lose but he fought hard and somehow squeaked out a decision."
