How can you economically and effectively settle the single-family construction defect case? In a recent mediation involving a homeowner, contractor and 15 subs, the participants used the following practices, which resulted in 16 signed settlements at the end of one day:
To read on to section 4. Have decision-makers present and prepared and more, please read the full article, Make the Most of Your Mediation: The Single-Family Construction Defect Case, from Law.com.
By Barbara A. Reeves Neal, Esq. and Kenneth C. Gibbs, Esq.
There is much that can go wrong in any large construction project: improper installations, defective products, errors and omissions made by designers, unexpected site conditions—the list is long. Insurance coverage or a performance bond often means the difference between compensating injured parties and a nightmare of litigation and financial distress. Unfortunately, insurance carriers often choose to wait while parties take their disputes through lengthy, expensive litigation, often adding yet more delays to the project. Getting insurers to the table before litigation would save all parties significant time and money. This article is a case study in one method of bringing insurers into settlement discussions early on through cooperative non-binding arbitration among the parties, followed by mediation with the insurance carriers.
The main problem for parties seeking insurance coverage in complicated construction defect cases is that there are too many variables. There is often a tangle of liability issues, as well as confusion over which party the insurer is obligated to pay. Further complicating matters, defective construction claims may involve (1) builder's risk insurance (first-party coverage), (2) liability insurance (third-party coverage) and (3) a performance bond and the responsibility of the surety behind the performance bond. Sorting this out can cause significant delays, particularly if a carrier takes the position that it does not owe coverage or that it is reserving its rights and refuses to come to the table for settlement discussions until after the other parties have fully litigated liability.
A recent case illustrates one solution to these problems. It started when a mixed-use commercial/residential high-rise project took too long, cost too much and sprung a leak. Normally in such a case, the owner would consider options to seek insurance coverage directly on a first-party basis under its property, or all-risk-type, policy, or to sue the contractor and product supplier pursuant to a third-party commercial general liability (CGL) policy. However the owner decided to proceed, the next step would be for the parties to ask their respective insurance carriers for coverage and/or protection in and from a lawsuit. The carriers would then answer yes and grant full coverage, answer no and deny coverage or answer maybe and agree to defend under a reservation of rights to later deny or accept coverage. The latter two answers, of course, will likely to lead to protracted, and expensive, litigation as the parties sort out liability.
The parties in this dispute, however, tried a completely different option. The owner, contractor and subcontractors agreed to submit their claims to non-binding arbitration, with an agreement that the arbitration award would become binding 30 days after issuance if no party rejected it. To expedite the proceedings, they agreed to submit their evidence through written presentations, largely from experts, with cross-examination available at the hearing. All parties agreed that there was some degree of liability on the parts of one or more defendants, although they disagreed about the amount of damages. However, all their efforts to date to involve their insurance carriers in meaningful settlement discussions or mediation had failed. Thus, the parties entered into the arbitration with the expectation of an award in favor of the plaintiff/claimant, albeit in an unknown amount.

By Barbara A. Reeves Neal, Esq.
If you have ever remodeled or built a house, you can begin to understand a significant issue that has generated both litigation and legislation arising out of defective construction: Do comprehensive general liability ("CGL") policies provide coverage for construction defects?
Contractors typically purchase performance bonds to cover their work, but these bonds generally have higher premiums than liability policies. While it is not surprising that consumers would prefer the availability of the lower-priced coverage if provided by CGL policies, the cost of those policies may increase if courts and legislatures mandate constructive defect coverage under CGL policies.
A CGL policy covers potential liability for property damage caused by an "occurrence," typically defined as an "accident," including gradual accidental harm. In construction defect coverage, courts across the country have handed down opinions with varying interpretations of the "occurrence" issue, with most being divided on the issue as to whether coverage is available for construction defects.
One approach takes the position that defective construction work—and resulting damage—is not covered under liability insurance policies because neither was the result of an "accident" (i.e., an "occurrence"). Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Arizona, Ohio and Kentucky courts, among others, have adopted this position, while courts in Colorado and Hawaii were split within the state. The analysis is that construction defects are the natural consequence of performing (substandard) work and liability policies do not protect against foreseeable business risks. They conclude that CGL policies are not performance bonds and liability insurers did not sign up to be guarantors of a contractor's work.
Other jurisdictions, including Florida, Wisconsin, and Alabama, among others, have held that faulty or defective workmanship is considered an "accident" and therefore an "occurrence," or that even if the defective construction work itself is not an "occurrence," the resulting damage is covered because it was fortuitous and unintended. ("Your substandard work may not have been an accident, but the resulting mess was.")

How to Make Your Dumb Phone Smart
As of last autumn, more than half of the people with a mobile phone in this country use a smartphone. By August of next year, smartphone users are expected to make up 80 percent of the market. The writing is on the wall in an extremely legible typeface: Those of you pathetic luddites still trudging your sorry way through life with a non-smartphone, with a goddamn dumb phone, you guys are on the losing side of history, and you're destined for the same scrap heap as your lame, embarrassing phones that you can't even use to read the news or track your stocks or check if the L train is running properly.
That's certainly the message of the gadget-cult evangelists, for whom the planned obsolescence of modern technology is a feature rather than a bug. But not everyone is convinced that the only people who deserve mobile access to information are the ones willing to drop hundreds of dollars on a new iPhone. The developers of the Dumb Store, for example, are working to make dumb phones smart.
The Dumb Store is a project that allows people to access a variety of information usually reserved for those with smartphones using nothing but the voice and text capabilities of a humbler dumb-phone. Text "weather" and your zip code or city and state to 646-666-3536, and the Dumb Store will text back to let you know if you need a sweater or a raincoat. You can also convert currency, read Google News headlines, check the most recent tweets, and, thanks to Is The L Train Fucked, learn whether the L train is fucked, all via text or telephone call.
"With all the stuff we can do in the Internet, why can't we make all these Internet things available to everyone?" says Allison Burtch, a graduate student at NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program, who developed the Dumb Store along with Ramsey Nasser. "I think that everyone should be able to access information that they need, and that shouldn't be dependent on whether they have a smartphone or limited access to the internet."

There was a time when the rulers of the universe actually provided some of the functionality the Dumb Store is trying to restore. You could text Google for directions or calendar appointments. But the "Don't Be Evil" empire, now in the smartphone business itself, yanked that service earlier this month, provoking plaintive yowls from those who had come to rely on it.
Burtch and Nasser are hoping to replace and expand on the old SMS functionalities Google shuttered, preserving the utility and lifetime of perfectly good phones. "This is kind of a resistance to the planned obsolescence of devices," Burtch says.
The Dumb Store is open to any developer who wants to add a new capability, and already volunteers have added new apps. Burtch says a big one is in the pipeline as well: an app that lets you call in and have your e-mails read to you.

Wednesday, September 12, 2012
I couldn't understand why I couldn't write today. I had a few stories floating around in my brain, but when I sat at the computer...blinking cursor. Hoping for inspiration, I grabbed the leash to take Snowy for a stroll on this crisp pre-fall morning. I came back inside, sat in front of the computer...crickets. And then it happened, a cool breeze wafted in through the open patio door. I looked out and up to the swaying treetops and cloudless blue skies. And then I remembered. I looked down at my date calendar, September the 11th. The weather was eerily like the morning of the tragedy in New York City when the terrorist flew their planes into the World Trade Center, Pennsylvania and the Pentagon killing nearly 3000 people.
It almost feels sacrilegious to write about anything but the tragedy or at least memorialize it today. While sitting back and thinking of that morning, little tidbits of recent inconsequential moments start to append. The beautiful scarf I saw with the label made in Vietnam this week, Anne Frank's diary and a Dixie Chicks CD.
I realize as a nation and part of the human race. We forgive. As I touched this beautiful hand-woven scarf and saw the label ~Made in Vietnam~ I had goose bumps crawl up my arm. I recalled the documentaries and movies of the bloody battles and maimed bodies the Vietnam war left behind. A war indecisive in years, documented by most to span 20 years. Yet in 2010 we were trading with Vietnam to the tune of $376 million a year. According to Economy in Crisis, The United States was the second largest importer of Vietnamese shrimp in the world in 2010. Let's see, then there was Japan and Pearl Harbor. According to Wikipedia Japan-United States-relations, The United States has been Japan's largest economic partner, taking 31.5 percent of its exports, supplying 22.3 percent of its imports, and accounting for 45.9 percent of its direct investment abroad in 1990.
Today, although US participation in the war in Afghanistan is over, we still have infantry and national guardsmen fighting Taliban forces and trying to stabilize the country. July 22, 2012 KABUL, Afghanistan -- This year's pullout of 23,000 American troops from Afghanistan is at the halfway mark, U.S. Gen. John Allen, the top commander of U.S. and NATO forces, said Sunday in an interview with The Associated Press HERE.
Yet at the same time on the same soil, their brothers in arms are refabricating the infrastructure of Afghanistan by re-building schools, providing drinking water and medical assisting. The healing has already begun.
The greed and lust for power of a few doesn't necessitate hating a whole nation. I thought of the beautiful words written in the diary of holocaust victim Anne Frank "How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." And it has already started.
Then, there's this CD. I sifted through a box looking for a lost business logo. What's this? The Dixie Chicks. I packed their CD away when I tired of the mud slinging and controversy that ensued after Dixie Chick's (Natalie Maines) controversial statements about our US president on foreign soil and feuds with Toby Keith on opinions and positions on the war in Iraq. I realize now that it had less to do about what their opinions were and more to do with the fact than I just wanted to begin healing without the bickering. If I had owned a Toby Keith CD at that time, I would have done the same with his.
I buy music for music's sake, not for the personal lifestyle and opinion of the artist. My music collection would be quite sparse, especially considering that the list of wayward , outspoken opinionated musicians goes way back.
I pop the ~Chicks~ Cd into the player. Those gals were incredible. I see a neighbor strolling past the patio near the pond and fight the urge to turn the volume down. I realize we have come along way and then again..not. There's a stigma attatched to the CD that time will have to erase. But darn they were good. I guess this makes me a closet Chick.

Kessler Pondering Move To 175, Against Tavoris Cloud?
By Per Ake Persson
After weeks of rumors and speculation, Sauerland Event finally canceled the super middleweight clash between WBO champion Robert Stieglitz and Danish superstar Mikkel Kessler (44-2, 33KOs), which was set for April 14th at Parken in Copenhagen. The fight was first scheduled for November 5 but Kessler had to withdraw due to a broken finger. The same injury is still causing problems for the Viking Warrior, which forced Monday's withdrawal.
With Kessler out, Stieglitz will defend the title against his mandatory challenger, British champion George Groves. As BoxingScene.com reported earlier, Steiglitz's promoter, SES Boxing, won Monday's purse bid and plan to stage the fight in Germany, with a date and venue being announced shortly.
As for Kessler, he returns on May 19 in Copenhagen with the opponent to be announced next week.
In an interview with the Danish media, Kessler's promoter, Kalle Sauerland, disclosed one possible option for the May 19th event. According to Sauerland, Kessler might possibly move up to light heavyweight to challenge IBF champion Tavoris Cloud (24-0, 19KOs).
Kessler was last seen in June of last year where he stopped overmatched Frenchman Mehdi Bouadla and his last major fight dates back to the spring of 2010 when he beat Carl Froch and then had to pull out of the Super Six tournament due to eye problems.
Another exhibit as to why there is no reason to take Mikkel seriously when he plans a fight.Comment by Ringlife on 03-12-2012

Disappointing drop out. But actually quite an interesting fight. If he won it clearly, he'd really make a statement, largely because Clouds American, it'd be in America, is well knownish. He's better off at LHW in some ways, than he…Comment by Scrubber on 03-12-2012

Santa Baby

|"Santa Baby"
|Single by Eartha Kitt
|"Under the Bridges of Paris"[1]
|October 2, 1953
|July 1953[1]
|RCA Victor (47–5502)
|Eartha Kitt singles chronology
"Santa Baby" is a 1953 Christmas song written by Joan Javits (the niece of Senator Jacob K. Javits) and Philip Springer, sung originally by Eartha Kitt.
The song is a tongue-in-cheek look at a Christmas list addressed to Santa Claus by a woman who wants extravagant gifts such as sables, yachts, and decorations from Tiffany's.
Original recording[edit]
"Santa Baby" was originally recorded by Eartha Kitt with Henri René and his orchestra in New York City, in July 1953. It was released by RCA Victor Records as catalog number 20-5502 (in the USA),[2] and by EMI on the His Master's Voice label as catalog number B 10728. The song was a huge hit for Kitt, and she later said that it was one of her favorite songs to record; she reprised it in the 1954 film New Faces. Kitt re-recorded the song for Kapp Records in 1963, using a more uptempo arrangement (Madonna's popular rendition for the 1987 charity album A Very Special Christmas was based on this latter version). In 1954, Kitt recorded a new version of the song with new lyrics titled "This Year's Santa Baby" to no commercial success. Writers listed did not change.
The song is heard in many films, such as Driving Miss Daisy (1989), Mixed Nuts (1994), Elf (2003), and Boynton Beach Club (2005). It was also heard in the Gavin And Stacey Christmas Special (2008).
Cover versions[edit]
"Santa Baby" has been covered in recorded and live performances by many artists throughout the years, including Megan Nicole, Sharon Feingold, Pink Martini, Maria Muldaur, Everclear, RuPaul, Mariah Carey, Kate Ceberano, Homer and Jethro, Bambi Monroe, Raini Rodriguez, Shakira, Madonna, Jhene, Macy Gray, Natalie Merchant, Cynthia Basinet, Faith Evans, Boney James, Kylie Minogue, Ste van Holm, The Pussycat Dolls, LeAnn Rimes, VersaEmerge, Kellie Pickler, Lynn Anderson, Paloma Faith, Taylor Swift, The Dollyrots, Colbie Caillat, Sugababes, The Swingle Singers, Ariana Grande featuring Elizabeth Gillies, Halie Loren, Debby Ryan, Trisha Paytas and Glee's version by Santana Lopez (Naya Rivera), which was omitted from the episode, but remained on the season 3 soundtrack. It was sung in an Ally McBeal episode by the title character (Calista Flockhart). 1 on disc 1 of The Perfect Christmas 2006 album.
In December 2000, Kylie Minogue's version of the song reached #6 in the UK due to download sales. It was first released as a b-side to her 2000 single "Please Stay" (released in December of that year), which charted #10 a b-side to her version of the Christmas classic "Let It Snow". Both were released during December 2010 on iTunes on A Kylie Christmas. On 23 December 2010, Kylie released the video for "Santa Baby" via YouTube. The song is also featured on Minogue's 2015 album Kylie Christmas. Minogue's version of the song is featured in the 2006 film The Holiday.
In 2011, Michael Bublé sang a slightly modified version for his Christmas album. The lyrics were altered for grammatical gender including "Santa buddy" and "Santa pally".
Internet personality TotalBiscuit covered the song after ThePortraitArt won YouTube's Spotlight Award for 2011.
"Santa Baby" was recorded by American singer Ariana Grande, featuring Liz Gillies. It was released on 10 December 2013 on iTunes and Amazon MP3 through Republic Records.[3]
In late 2014 Jen Kirkman and Rhett Miller performed a live version of the song at the City Winery in New York City.[4][citation needed]
In 2015, Jen Lilley covered the song on her soft jazz Christmas album "Tinsel Time." [5]

Making whiskey at Mount Vernon
In the fall of 1799, George Washington wrote to his nephew: "Two hundred gallons of Whiskey will be ready this day for your call, and the sooner it is taken the better, as the demand for this article (in these parts) is brisk."The whiskey Washington spoke of was produced in his own distillery, at Mount Vernon, and the popularity of the spirit (in these parts) remains. Mount Vernon historians-turned-distillers have been busy making Washington's unaged rye whiskey, following his recipe and manual methods, since early this month and will put 1,100 bottles up for sale in April.The team, led by former Maker's Mark master distiller Dave Pickerell, has perfected the craft since they began distilling at the old mill twice a year beginning in 2009. (A $2.1 million grant from the distilled spirits industry helped fund the project.) And the demand for their product has grown: The waiting list is more than 4,000 for this year's batch....

Bombers kill 31 at Iraq campaign rally for Shiites
BAGHDAD -- Suicide bombers killed 31 people Friday at a sports stadium hosting a campaign rally for thousands of supporters of a militant Shiite group before parliamentary elections, authorities said -- an attack that could unleash more sectarian violence.
An al-Qaida breakaway group, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, claimed responsibility for the attack at the Industrial Stadium in eastern Baghdad, which drew about 10,000 backers of the Iranian-backed Asaib Ahl al-Haq group.
It said on a militant website that the bombings were to avenge what it called the killing of Sunnis and their forced removal from their homes by Shiite militias.
The authenticity of the claim could not be independently verified.
The attack was a stark reminder of the sectarian violence that has plagued Iraq more than two years after U.S. troops ended an eight-year presence that often served as a buffer between the nation's Shiite majority and its Sunni Arab minority.
In 2013, the death toll in the country climbed to its highest levels since the worst of the sectarian bloodshed between 2006 and 2008. The U.N. reported 8,868 people were killed in 2013, and more than 1,400 people were killed in the first two months of this year alone.
The rally was organized to introduce the group's candidates for Wednesday's vote. More than 9,000 candidates are taking part and will vie for 328 seats in parliament. Parts of the Sunni-dominated Anbar province won't take part in the election due to the clashes there between security forces and al-Qaida-inspired militants.
A top intelligence officer and security officials said a senior Sunni politician in the southern city of Basra, Abdul-Kareem al-Dussary, was shot and killed Friday night in what appeared to be a revenge attack for the Baghdad bombings. The resurgence of sectarian violence is in part a reflection of the 3-year-old conflict in neighboring Syria, where forces loyal to President Bashar Assad are battling mostly Sunni rebels.
