rachel2012 Review
I am a petite female and prior to this month(March of 2012), I never assembled any furniture in my life. Because of all the horror stories on this website about the assembly of this product, I almost did not buy it.ALMOST. In the end,I decided to take my chances because I liked it too much.I was fully prepared to bite the bullet and pay for return shipping because I wouldn't be able to put it together right.Anticipating that this would be the DIY project of the century, I had it shipped to my previous landlord James' house because James is hands down the handiest guy I've ever known. Even so, I made an appointment with him to make sure that he wouldn't just attempt taking on this coffee table monster by himself. I figured two people putting their heads together would have a better chance of deciphering the notorious wordless schematic drawings. On the day of the big coffee table assembly event, I told my bf not to come over to my apartment that night because I thought I would be home late. I was so WRONG. The assembly process took a whopping 30 minutes. 40 minutes in total time spent, including the time for James to set up his work bench, getting all the pieces unpacked and laid out on the padded floor and then cleaning up afterwards. There are ONLY 6 steps in total. I was involved every step of the way. The drawings are very EASY to understand. The wood pieces are ALL labeled, and labeled Correctly! The hardware pieces were easy to tell apart because..well...they were in individual packaging. No pieces were missing or damaged in any way. The only discrepancy between the assembly instructions and my actual product is that at step 3 (or 5,can't remember), the schematic shows that I need a wood peg when in fact either they forgot to drill two holes or decided that was unnecessary. It doesn't matter though because it really is unnecessary. Every piece came together perfectly. The finished project is in NO way wobbly, unstable, or one side heavier than the other. The color and style are perfectly to my liking and matches my living room furniture nicely. It's a perfect size for an apartment, not huge, but not tiny either. IT's not very heavy(I was able to carry it to my 2nd floor apt), but it seems quite sturdy. I don't know why people had so much negative stuff to say about the assembly. Maybe they improved their schematics after so much negative feedback on that?? In my case this was the EASIEST to piece together out of all 5 pieces of furniture i bought online this month. Granted we used a power tool, which saved a bit of time. And two people are faster than one. However, had I not enlist James' help, I would definitely still have been able to do it myself, albeit maybe spending 60 to 90 min instead of 30. This is totally a one-man(or woman) project, no heavy lifting or trying to hold 4 pieces with 2 hands. If you are wondering if you should buy because the assembly sounds so daunting, don't hesitate, buy it! It's so very simple. In short, I am so very happy with the coffee table.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Matches very well
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Very good quality
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Accurate

Jefferson Hinkley is back in the newest thriller in the Dick Francis tradition, this time on a special mission to the United States to investigate a conspiracy involving the biggest horse races in the country.
The richest prize in racing. The perfect motive to commit a crime.
Jeff Hinkley, a British Horseracing Authority investigator, has been seconded to the US Federal Anti-Corruption in Sports Agency (FACSA), where he has been asked to find a mole in their organisation, an informant who is passing on confidential information to fix races.
Jeff goes in search of answers, taking on an undercover role as a groom on the backstretch at Belmont Park racetrack in New York. But he discovers far more than he was bargaining for, finding himself as the meat in the sandwich between FACSA and corrupt individuals who will stop at nothing, including murder, to capture the most elusive and lucrative prize in the world: the Triple Crown.
©2016 Felix Francis (P)2016 Recorded Books
"Music annoying"
Good book, true to Francis performance but recording of music makes it annoying but still good
"ALWAYS Love a Francis Novel...BOTH Father & Son!!!"
Well Done Felix. . . love that you're carrying on in the meaty world of Racing & BEYOND...Always a well twisted plot...no cookie cutters for you! Thank you!
"Slow start"
I generally love Dick and Felix Francis books. But I found this one slow to get into. I usually like all the background information and for the first time I was a bit bored. I have liked other Jeff Hinckley books, with his sister's illness etc. But this time there was little about him.
"The Ending Could Have Been Better"
It has a good Outline Good Story But what happened to The End.
No Word on His Girlfriend.
I know it was Rocky at the Start.
"too rough"
too much violence and not enough plot. convincing details of US customs about finance and horse races..
"Very interesting book"
Nice to hear part 2 in the story about Hinckley look forward for part 3
"Excellent narration, very good story."
The return of Jeff Hinckley, this time in the USA, produces a well paced story with a very good story line. Martin Jarvis provides an excellent narration. The story develops well, and has an interesting twist at the end. My single disappointment is the length of time the lead character took to recognise the major clue. But this may be less apparent to a layperson.
My dad and I both love Dick and Felix Francis and look forward to September each year. Dad got first read this year and he was underwhelmed. I got second read and I was underwhelmed. Dad isn't the world's best literary critic but he said "They always grab me and I can't put them down but this one doesn't" - he was right, I could take or leave it. It didn't grab me from the start then there was a whole lot of narrative with heaps of technical information that just seemed to keep on coming, none of the short sentences, action packed plot that characterised older books. Dick rarely repeated his heroes but we have had several now with Jefferson as the hero and he's wearing a little thin - there wasnt even a decent love contact this time. Sorry, disappointed with this one.

…Someone you never would have guessed, perhaps not even heard of. This year saw no shortage of villians, from the obvious choices in ISIS, Al-Queda, Putin, the terrorist shooters in Paris and California, or the soon to be nuclear armed Iranian rulers. One could also look at these characters' enablers, such as President Obama, the European leadership, the mainstream press, or your western leftists who will excuse any crime committed by people of a certain religion. There has been the sad indictment of the MSM for lacking basic reading comprehension skills when they tried to brand a Supreme Court justice a racist. And we've seen the hyserical fascist mobs of #Black Lives Matter and crybully uprisings on campuses across the nation. Actually, our villian of the year comes from where these last two groups intersected.
It's easy to spot and label villains who watch from their towers as their band of Orcs raze the land or in the worm-tongued toadies who support them. But sometimes being a villian is doing the wrong thing, especially when one has the chance to help someone about to make a terrible mistake that will heavily impact their future, and encouraging that person to make the wrong choice. Ladies and gentlemen, your villain of the year is… Gary Pinkel.
Who? You've probably heard about the student protests at the University of Missouri, of which Robert Stacy McCain gave a great summary if you need the background info on the 'Systemic Racism,' Anarchy and Incipient Totalitarianism at University of Missouri. One subset of the protests is that some of the members of the Missouri football team threatened to walk off of the team if the university's President failed to resign for showing insufficient enthusiasm for the protesters' grivances. I suggested that not allowing the football team to walk off and accept the consequences of their actions was a missed teachable moment. And this might not have happened had the team's head coach stood up been a leader to his team – that man is Gary Pinkel. One important element of this story is the coach's health – via Ace:
Pinkel resigned, citing non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. I won't offer any speculation, but the timing is curious. I didn't expect he'd be retained as the coach after this escapade, and I think he'd have had a hard time recruiting after all this. A few people have pointed out that you could make a reasonable case to fire him with cause, and I'll let you make up your own minds on what happened.
Pinkel was asked about this on a sports talk radio interview, and while he didn't implode as Dailywire's Amanda Prestigiacomo suggests, he didn't of a very good job of defending his position. Alex Martin Smith at SEC Country also points out that the team was not as united in this walkout either as you may have been led to believe.
But there is apparently a large contingency within the Mizzou Athletic Training Complex that wants to get back on the field.
"As much as we want to say everyone is united, half the team and coaches — black and white — are pissed," an anonymous player told ESPN.com's Brett McMurphy. "If we were 9-0, this wouldn't be happening."
If Missouri is forced to cancel this weekend's game vs. BYU (scheduled to be played in Kansas City), it would owe Brigham Young $1 million.
Up to this point I've just given the background info, but you are probably wondering why I'd label Pinkel a villain in all of this. It's not so much his actions or or intent (of which we'll probably never completely know), but rather the impact of his decisions and how it will affect the lives of these young men who engineered the threatened walkoff. People in positions of authority that deal with young people, whether teachers, coaches, or bosses to varying degrees have some impact on the kids they're mentoring. It can be as significant as taking on some role that an absent/negligent parent did not, or as simple as a rebellious teenager needed to hear things from a perspective other than his or her parents. As any fan of Spider Man knows, with great power comes great responsibility. And that is where Coach Pinkel's role comes into play.
These young men were ready to walk off of their team over a childish protest against some unspecified grievance. They were ready to abandon the commitments they had made to their school, their coaches, and their teammates, not to mention any stakeholders potentially harmed by potentially cancelled games (such as local venodrs or people counting on extra income from working at those games). In this day and age, The Internet never forgets, and what they have done is something that (unless each player did a good job of ensuring that his name is not specified in any stories) will make getting any kind of job outside of higher education or being a professional social agitator damned near impossible. When a potential employer googles the player's name and sees participation in this protest, what do you think the initial reaction will be? Will it be "Now there's someone of outstanding charcter who stands up for his beliefs!", or "Ah, we have a candidate who has already demonstrated that he has no problem ignoring commitments, regardless of what burden that may place on those around him. Not to mention that I could also potentially be hiring a ticking discrimination lawsuit waiting to happen"? Over the years I've probably interviewed a few hundred job candidates, and I have learned the hard way that if there is even the slightest doubt as to whether or not to hire someone you err on the side of caution. For any of you lefties reading this who say you would gladly hire any of these players, are you willing to do so if you bear the full responsibility for the hiring decision and whatever happens once the employee is on board?
Coach Pinkel should have known better, and should have talked to his team. Missou is not having a good season, and as you saw earlier this issue only divided the locker room. If a number of players wanted to leave the team, he should have gathered them and explained the potential consequences of doing so. Or better still, get the entire team together, explain the consequences, tell them that whatever the players choose to do he would support them, but that whatever choice they made to do it as one team. And then gather the rest of the coaches and leave. The players might be too young to fully appreciate the impact that today's actions will have on their lives, but he can give them the guidance to make a very important adult decision. And if they make the wrong choice, at least they were given some guidance to think through the impact of their choice and will be better prepared to face the outcomes.
While taking the path or least resistance by capitulating to the loudest voices is hardly the most vile or sinister action that happened in 2015 (see opening paragraph), turning away from someone in need who is about to hurt themselves when you may be the only one who can help them is a terrible act. And if you find yourself in such a situation, don't be like Coach Pinkel – take responsibility. It doesn't always make you popular in the short run, but if more people did there would be less oportunity for the true villians of the world to rise.

If a ship was ruined for you by it's shippers clap your hands
If a ship was ruined for you by it's shippers clap your hands
Do you ever have those NOTP's where you don't really mind seeing them on your dash you just don't ship it but it doesn't really affect you? And then you have that one NOTP that causes a visceral reaction in you like your eye kinda twitches and you can feel the rage flowing in your veins and a rant on the tip of your tongue?
Frustrated or triggered because of that one tag/ship/fic/author that keeps showing up while you browse ao3? Here's step-by-step guide to blacklisting à la tumblr savior on Archive of our Own.
"if stiles was a girl sterek would already be canon"
sweetie if stiles was a girl youd all hate her and ship derek with scott instead
If you don't ship it, that's okay.
If you hate it, that's also okay.
If you go around telling other people who like it or ship it that it's a bad thing or how disgusting you find it, that is so not okay.
"Tyler Posey is homophobic"
"Scott isn't important to the plot"
"Tyler Posey is a terrible actor"
"No one cares about Scott"
"More Sterek"
"Scott is a boring character"
" they should just kill him off"
"Anti Scott"
What she says: I'm fine
What she means: I really don't understand how Kira, a female Asian lead, had her powers revealed and develop in the last season and was literally fucking BOOTED off of Teen Wolf while Peter, a piece of shit character that should be rotting in hell right now (and who literally does NOTHING and DOES NOT contribute anything to solve ANYONE'S problems) was brought back. It's literally like throwing a diamond away for an ugly ass, deformed rock with dog shit on it.
you come into MY dashboard and you recommend blogs with MY notp??!
The fact that fandom is more concerned about Posey calling a fictional ship with fictional characters bizarre and twisted than they are about the inherent racism in the show and fandom, and the jokes Holland makes about rape and transgender people says a lot about the state of this fandom.
The fact that fandom thinks it's okay to refer to people of color as colored, that they think it's okay to claim to live in a color blind society, that it's okay to misconstrue and shit on a character because they're watching this to see two white boys touch dick, and they deserve a pass for that, and get outraged when an actor sees through that bullshit? That they want to bring up their hurt feelings while they hurt the feelings of others, because they deserve some pass for being tricked into the show by a ship that does not exist, and hasn't shared a single scene all season? It says a lot.
Nobody gives a shit about your hurt feelings. It is a crack ship. The actors are not obligated to soften the blow of their utter disinterest (just like you said they weren't obligated to give us the kind of representation we want). The show has a lot of crack ships, but not a single one of those crack shippers are threatening to quit watching, because apparently they're watching for the wrong reasons. You are entitled, and selfish, and a bunch of fucking cry babies, and you are watching for the wrong reason. And Jeff Davis has taken that very reason away from you, for the last how many? Eight episodes? And you still somehow make every single development about sterek, even when there is no sterek in the equation. You are watching it for the wrong reason. And I don't have a single fuck to give about how that impacts your fandom experience, because you guys are dicks. You guys have been telling us that we're watching the show wrong if we don't ship sterek since the first season.
And now you're telling us we're bullies because we don't see how sterek factors into a single thing happening on screen, and you're taking to twitter and shitting on Posey, and calling other people the bullies. Fuck you guys, seriously. I hope you quit watching (because tumblr and the fans over seas doesn't actually help ratings in the least, surprisingly), because it means we won't have to deal with your bullshit meta, and your bullshit erasure in fandom anymore.
Thank God for Tyler Posey, seriously.
Tyler Posey on Sterek
The fans are hoping for a little Sterek action. What are your thoughts on that-? I know fandom is fandom but how do you guys feel about that?

FRANKLIN BROOKS, JR., APPELLANT,v.BOARD OF REVIEW AND SIERRA SALES COMPANY, INC., RESPONDENTS.
On appeal from a Final Decision of the Board of Review, Department of Labor, Docket Nos. 87,984 and 92,684.
Submitted September 26, 2007
Before Judges Lisa and Lihotz.
These are back-to-back appeals, consolidated for the purpose of this opinion. Franklin Brooks appeals from final decisions of the Board of Review (Board), which affirmed a determination by Appeal Tribunal determinations finding him ineligible for the receipt of unemployment benefits, N.J.S.A. 43:21-5(a), and requiring him to refund $5,030 in benefits paid, N.J.S.A. 43:21-16(d)(1). In light of our standard of review, we conclude that the final decisions of the Board were properly premised upon facts in the record and that its determinations were consonant with relevant statutory provisions.
Brooks worked as a salesperson for Sierra Sales Company, Inc. (Sierra). He resigned on June 10, 2005. Brooks stated "there was no room for growth in the company because of the economy, competition, and his inability to receive contracts in a timely manner." These factors impeded his ability to meet higher sales targets and achieve eligibility for sales bonuses. Brooks also cited his health as a basis for his departure. In 2002 and 2003, he had been involved in automobile accidents, for which he was receiving chiropractic treatment for neck and back pain. Sierra had denied Brooks's request to reduce his travel assignment because the request was not supported by medical verification.
On August 7, 2005, Brooks applied for unemployment benefits. A Deputy Director of the Division of Unemployment and Disability Insurance (Deputy) granted the request. Brooks was awarded and collected $5,030 in benefits for the period August 13, 2005 to October 15, 2005. Sierra appealed from the Deputy's decision.
On October 18, 2005, after a hearing, an Appeals Tribunal (Tribunal) reversed the Deputy's decision. The Tribunal determined Brooks voluntarily left his employment "without good cause attributable to the work" and, therefore, was ineligible to receive unemployment benefits. N.J.S.A. 43:21-5(a). Additionally, the Tribunal rejected the claimed medical cause as a basis for Brooks's departure because he provided no medical documentation beyond 2003 to justify "good cause attributable to such work."
The Tribunal remanded the issue of whether Brooks was liable to refund the benefits previously paid, to the Division Director. Without further hearing, the Director mailed Brooks a demand to refund the $5,030 previously paid. Brooks appealed. On November 23, 2005, after a telephonic hearing, the Tribunal affirmed the Director's demand for a refund because Brooks had been disqualified for receipt of benefits. N.J.S.A. 43:21-16(d) and N.J.A.C. 12:17-14.2.
Represented by counsel, Brooks filed an appeal to the Board of the Director's demand for reimbursement, and separately filed an appeal from the Tribunal's October 18, 2005 determination that he was ineligible to collect unemployment benefits. On December 9, 2005, the Board dismissed the latter appeal as untimely, pursuant to N.J.S.A. 43:21-6(b)(1), after noting that Brooks failed to show good cause for the late filing. On March 24, 2006, the Board affirmed the Tribunal's determination requiring Brooks to refund all benefits previously paid. Appeals from these two final decisions of the Board followed.
Brooks maintains that he was not provided with a transcript of the Tribunal's October 11, 2005 hearing, which would support his position that he left his employment for reasons attributable to his work. Also, he argues that Sierra failed to properly pay him for an account he handled. He suggests that the amount of the unemployment benefits "represented far less than [he] could and should have earned" on that account, justifying retention of the benefits paid. Finally, Brooks asserts he collected unemployment benefits "in good faith," making no misrepresentations, thus obviating the requirement for repayment.
The limited nature of our review of administrative decisions is well established. Brady v. Bd. of Review, 152 N.J. 197, 210 (1997). In analyzing the Board's determination, we remain mindful that "[t]he grant of authority to an administrative agency is to be liberally construed to enable the agency to accomplish the Legislature's goals." Gloucester Cty. Welfare Bd. v. N.J. Civil Serv. Comm'n, 93 N.J. 384, 390 (1983). A "strong presumption of reasonableness accompanies an administrative agency's exercise of statutorily-delegated responsibility," ibid., such that we defer to "[t]he agency's [statutory] interpretation . . . provided it is not plainly unreasonable." Merin v. Maglaki, 126 N.J. 430, 437 (1992).
An individual is disqualified to receive unemployment benefits "[f]or the week in which the individual has left work voluntarily without good cause attributable to such work . . . ." N.J.S.A. 43:21-5. We have observed that "[w]hile the statute does not define 'good cause,' our courts have construed the statute to mean 'cause sufficient to justify an employee's voluntarily leaving the ranks of the employed and joining the ranks of the unemployed.'" Domenico v. Bd. of Review, 192 N.J. Super. 284, 287 (App. Div. 1983) (quoting Condo v. Bd. of Review, 158 N.J. Super. 172, 174 (App. Div. 1978)). In defining the circumstances that meet that requirement, we have said:
In scrutinizing an employee's reason for leaving, the test is one of ordinary common sense and prudence. Mere dissatisfaction with working conditions which are not shown to be abnormal or do not affect health, does not constitute good cause for leaving work voluntarily. The decision to leave employment must be compelled by real, substantial and reasonable circumstances not imaginary, trifling and whimsical ones . . . . [I]t is the employee's responsibility to do what is necessary and reasonable in order to remain employed. [Id. at 288 (internal quotation marks and citations omitted).]
This test is fact-sensitive requiring the application of "ordinary common sense and prudence." Ibid. As a result, when the agency's findings of fact are challenged on appeal, we will defer to it so long as there is sufficient credible evidence in the record to support its findings.
Once a person has been disqualified to receive unemployment benefits, the statue requires repayment of any benefits received:
When it is determined by a representative or representatives designated by the Director . . . that any person, whether (i) by reason of the nondisclosure or misrepresentation . . . of a material fact . . . . or (ii) for any other reason, has received any sum as benefits . . . while any conditions for the receipt of benefits imposed . . . were not fulfilled in his case, or while otherwise not entitled to receive such sum as benefits, such person . . . shall be liable to repay those benefits in full. [N.J.S.A. 43:21-16(d)(1).]
Here, the determination that Brooks was ineligible for unemployment benefits because he voluntarily left his employment is amply supported by the substantial credible evidence present in the record. "Absent a contractual obligation on the part of the employer with respect to salary increments, . . . an employee's frustration caused by not receiving an expected pay raise does not constitute good cause within the statutory intendment." DeSantis v. Bd. of Review, 149 N.J. Super. 35, 38 (App. Div. 1977). "[M]ere dissatisfaction with working conditions which are not shown to be abnormal or affect health does not constitute good cause for leaving work voluntarily." Zielenski v. Bd. of Review, 85 N.J. Super. 46, 54 (App. Div. 1964).
Moreover, Brooks, who was then represented by counsel, neither filed his appeal request within the statutorily prescribed ten-day period, N.J.S.A. 43:21-6(c), as noticed nor satisfied the good cause exception, which would allow consideration of an untimely submission. N.J.A.C. 12:20-4.1(h)(1) and (2).*fn1 Thus, the Tribunal's determination becomes final. N.J.S.A. 43:21-5(a).
We find no connection between the late filed notice of appeal and the unavailability of the transcript from the October 10, 2005 hearing.*fn2 There was no denial of due process.
Finally, there is no relationship between monies Brooks perceives he is owed by Sierra and his eligibility to retain the benefits he was erroneously paid. States are required to recoup funds erroneously distributed in order to receive federal funding. 42 U.S.C.A. § 503(a)(9). This policy protects the public and maintains a fund for those who are adversely affected by unemployment, not those who voluntarily choose to leave the workforce. N.J.S.A. 43:21-16(d) mandates full recoupment of "unemployment benefits received by an individual who, for any reason, regardless of good faith, was not actually entitled to those benefits." Bannan v. Bd. of Review, 299 N.J. Super. 671, 674 (App. Div. 1997). "The public interest clearly is not served when the Unemployment Trust Fund is depleted by the failure to recoup benefits erroneously paid to an unentitled recipient, however blameless he or she may have been." Ibid.
Accordingly, we are required to respect the Board's expertise and defer to its considered determinations. Ibid; Karins v. City of Atlantic City, 152 N.J. 532, 540 (1998).

If you are a member of this game, can demonstrate that it is being actively developed and will be able to keep this profile up to date with the latest news, images, videos and downloads, please contact us with all details and we will consider its re-activation.
Last Winter is a survival-horror game with one team who must survive an extremely harsh winter inside the cabin they've been trapped inside of. Players must see how long they can last while things get colder, and people start to go insane...
Last Winter is loosely based on the Shining, but pits a group of people inside the Cabin during the extremely harsh winter, and chooses one player at random to be the "killer". The killer won't be the only threat to the survivors. The weather will freeze them to death if they remain outside for too long. However, staying inside the cabin will also put players at risk of being murdered. The phone lines are dead, and the last hope the players have is the generator running the power, and if that goes out...it's only a matter of time until everyone dies.

NAUTILUS INSURANCE CO., PLAINTIFF,v.DUBIN & ASSOCIATES, INC., AN HON. HARRY D. LEINENWEBER ILLINOIS CORPORATION, AND WILLIE WAKEFIELD, INDIVIDUALLY, DEFENDANTS.
Nautilus Insurance Company (hereinafter, "Nautilus") brought the instant declaratory judgment action against its insured, Dubin & Associates, Inc. (hereinafter, "Dubin"), and Willie Wakefield (hereinafter, "Wakefield"). Dubin has filed a Motion to Dismiss Nautilus' Complaint pursuant to FED. R. CIV. P. 12(b)(1), alleging that Nautilus failed to plead facts sufficient to establish subject matter jurisdiction. For the reasons stated herein, Dubin's Motion to Dismiss is granted. Nautilus is given 30 days from the date of this Order to replead its Complaint.
The following facts are taken from Nautilus' Complaint. Nautilus issued to Dubin an insurance policy (the "Nautilus policy") that was effective from April 14, 2004 to April 14, 2005. The Nautilus policy states, in relevant part:
We will pay those sums that the insured becomes legally obligated to pay as damages because of "bodily injury" or "property damage" to which this insurance applies. We will have the right and duty to defend the insured against any "suit" seeking those damages. However, we will have no duty to defend the insured against any "suit" seeking damages for "bodily injury" or "property damage" to which this insurance does not apply.
In an endorsement, the Nautilus policy contains an "Employee Exclusion" barring coverage for any bodily injury that occurs to "an employee of the insured arising out of and in the course of:
(a) employment by the insured; or (b) performing duties related to the conduct of the insured's business." The endorsement defines "employee" as "includ[ing], but is not limited to, any persons hired by, loaned to, leased to, contracted for, or volunteering services to the insured, whether or not paid by the insured."
In 2006, Wakefield filed a lawsuit against Dubin in the Circuit Court of DuPage County, Ill., under the caption Willie Wakefield v. Dubin & Associates, Inc. et al., Case No. 06 L 860. Wakefield alleges that in March 2005 Dubin was the general contractor for the construction of buildings at 4500 W. Belmont Ave. in Chicago. Asbach & Vanselow, Inc. ("Asbach") and Air-Rite Heating and Cooling ("Air-Rite") were subcontractors on the project. Wakefield, a sheet metal installer for Air-Rite, alleges he was struck and injured by a load of lumber that fell from a forklift operated by an Asbach employee. Wakefield alleges negligent conduct by both Dubin and Asbach. Nautilus, which is not named in the Complaint, seeks a declaratory judgment in this Court to determine whether it has a duty to defend or indemnify Dubin in the Wakefield litigation.
Dubin has moved to dismiss the Complaint for failure to show the existence of an actual controversy. Absent from the Complaint is any allegation that Dubin ever demanded that Nautilus defend or indemnify it with respect to the Wakefield litigation. Nor is there any allegation that Dubin has ever indicated that it intends to make a claim under the Nautilus policy. The question in this case boils down to whether, given the gossamer-thin nature of Nautilus' pleading, it has adequately alleged that a live controversy exists between the parties. The Court finds that it has not.
A. Legal Standard
Here, Dubin's Rule 12(b)(1) Motion attacks the sufficiency of the Complaint, so the Court "must accept as true all well-pleaded factual allegations and draw all reasonable inferences in favor of the plaintiff." Alicea-Hernandez v. Catholic Bishop of Chi., 320 F.3d 698, 701 (7th Cir. 2003). Even so, Nautilus must sufficiently allege the existence of a case or controversy with respect to its duty to defend and indemnify Dubin.
The Declaratory Judgment Act gives federal courts discretionary power to issue declaratory judgments. But for the Court to exercise this power, it must have an independent basis of subject matter jurisdiction. Skelly Oil Co. v. Phillips Petroleum Co., 339 U.S. 667, 671-72 (1950). In this case, Nautilus' Complaint is premised on diversity jurisdiction.
When determining whether an actual controversy exists under the Declaratory Judgment Act, the question is whether there is a real dispute between parties with adverse legal interests "of sufficient immediacy and reality to warrant issuance of a declaratory judgment" and to ensure that such a judgment is not merely an advisory opinion. MedImmune, Inc. v. Genentech, Inc., 549 U.S. 118, 127 (U.S. 2007)(citing Maryland Cas. Co. v. Pacific Coal & Oil Co., 312 U.S. 270, 273 (1941)). In other words, a party bringing a declaratory judgment action must allege a direct injury or threat of injury that is "real and immediate, not conjectural or hypothetical." Atl. Int'l Ins. Co. v. Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Ry., 938 F.2d 81, 83 (1991)(internal citations omitted).
B. Discussion
Nautilus' Complaint outlines the background of the Wakefield litigation and the provisions of the policy it issued to Dubin. Nautilus alleges that Wakefield was an employee contracted for by Dubin and so falls within the policy's "Employee Exclusion." This, Nautilus alleges, precludes any duty on its part to defend or indemnify Dubin in the underlying litigation. But the Complaint says nothing about any discussions or contact between Dubin and Nautilus about potential coverage under the policy. The Court agrees with Dubin that it is odd that the Complaint lacks this information. Furthermore, neither party has provided any information about the status of the underlying litigation, which is nearly five years old, although a check of the DuPage County Circuit Clerk's Office's website reveals that it is still pending. Office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court, DuPage County, Ill., http://www.dupagecase.com/Clerk/caseNumberSearch.do (last visited July 29, 2011).
In support of its argument, Dubin cites Nat'l Union Fire Ins. Co. v. ESI Ergonomic Solutions, LLC, 342 F.Supp.2d 853 (D. Ariz. 2004). There, the court found that an insurer failed to show an actual controversy between itself and its insured, an advertiser, because the insurer failed to allege that the advertiser disputed its denial of coverage or had threatened to take legal action to obtain coverage. Id. at 862. There, as here, the insurer produced no evidence of any communications between it and its insured regarding coverage. Id. at 863.
In so ruling, the Court relied on the Seventh Circuit's ruling in Atl. Int'l Ins., 938 F.2d at 84, in which the court held that the mere rendering of a judgment against an insured railway did not create an actual dispute with its insurer. In that case, the insurer was one of about 170 insurers for a railway that had been found liable for a violation of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1. Id. at 82. The railway sent letters to its insurers, soliciting their views on possible settlement negotiations and inviting their participation "according to the terms of the policies." Id. The Seventh Circuit found that the letter fell short of being a demand for payment, particularly where questions remained as to whether the railway's liability arose during the insurer's policy year. Id. at 84.
Courts within this circuit have interpreted Atl. Int'l Ins. as standing for the proposition that the duty to defend "does not result in a case or controversy unless and until an insured either makes a demand for defense under such an insurance policy or threatens to make such a demand." Northland Ins. Co. v. Crane, No. 02 C 7388, 2006 WL 305877, at *3 (N.D. Ill. 2006). Nautilus, in asserting that its Complaint sufficiently alleges the existence of a controversy, relies on developments in Illinois law subsequent Atl. Int'l Ins. Specifically, the Illinois Supreme Court has held that an insurer's duty to defend is triggered not only by an insured tendering its defense to an insurer, but by the insurer's actual notice of a lawsuit. Cincinnati Cos. v. West Am. Ins. Co., 701 N.E.2d 499, 504 (Ill. 1998). An insurer has actual notice when it knows of the existence of a lawsuit that potentially falls within the scope of the policy. Emp'rs Ins. of Wausau v. Ehlo Liquidating Trust, 708 N.E.2d 1122, 1131 (Ill. 1999).
Here, Nautilus clearly knows of the existence of the Wakefield litigation, and so it argues that its duty to defend has been triggered and exists until Dubin explicitly tells it that its assistance is not wanted. However, the cases cited by Nautilus do not deal with the pleading standard required to show an actual controversy in order to obtain a declaratory judgment in federal court. At most, they show that Nautilus was on notice that it had to take some action in regard to the Wakefield litigation. Illinois courts have held that the duty to defend in an actual notice situation may be discharged merely by asking the insured whether it desires the insurer's assistance in the matter. Cincinnati Cos., 701 N.E.2d at 504. If the insured indicates that it does not, or is unresponsive, the insurer is relieved of its duty to defend. Id.
As it stands, it is impossible to tell from Nautilus' Complaint whether it made this inquiry of Dubin, what Dubin's response was, or when any of these hypothetical interactions occurred. The Complaint does not reveal when Nautilus learned of the lawsuit or whether it has taken any action in regard to it, such as defending under a reservation of rights or denying coverage. These facts are particularly important because, given the age of the Wakefield lawsuit, the Court must be able to assess whether an actual controversy currently exists between the parties.
In its response, Nautilus says that Dubin has requested coverage from it and that it is currently incurring defense costs in the Wakefield litigation. But neither of these allegations is included in its Complaint, and the Court cannot guess as to the existence of subject matter jurisdiction. So Dubin's Motion to Dismiss must be granted, but Nautilus is given leave to replead its Complaint in regard to its duty to defend within thirty (30) days from the date of this order.
However, the Court notes that any claim regarding Nautilus' duty to indemnify appears premature. While a duty to defend is ripe during the pendency of the underlying litigation, a duty to indemnify is ordinarily not justiciable until after the resolution of the underlying litigation. Cruz v. County of DuPage, 96 C 7170, 1998 WL 832642, at *4 (N.D. Ill. Nov. 23, 1998). Because it appears that Dubin disputes any alleged negligence on its part, it would be premature for this Court to resolve that issue while the underlying lawsuit is pending. Nationwide Ins. v. Zavalis, 52 F.3d 689, 694 (7th Cir. 1995). Although there are exceptions to this rule, none are apparent from the face of Nautilus' Complaint or from its response to the Motion to Dismiss. If the facts are such that a dispute over the duty to indemnify is indeed ripe, Nautilus should so plead them. Otherwise, it should replead only as to the duty to defend.
For the reasons stated herein, Dubin's Rule 12(b)(1) Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's Complaint for Declaratory Judgment is granted.
Nautilus is given leave to replead its Complaint within thirty (30) days from the date of this Order.

2007 AGU Fall Meeting, December 10-14,San Francisco, CA
Assessing U.S Air Quality Using CALIPSO and MODIS Data via Giovanni
1Ana Prados, 2Gregory Leptoukh, 3Erica J. Alston, and 3Irina N. Sokolik
1University of Maryland Baltimore County/JCET/NASA GSFC, Greenbelt, MD 2NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, MD 3School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA
The NASA Goddard online system Giovanni (http://giovanni.gsfc.nasa.gov) provides the scientific community with web based visualization, exploration, and analysis tools relevant to air quality. Relevant data products include MODIS Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD), CALIOP aerosol information, and PM2.5 and ozone surface monitor data. Giovanni services include maps, time series, Hovmoller plots, statistical analysis of one or more data sets for a selected region, and image animations of satellite data. For A-Train sensors, Giovanni is capable of providing vertical profile information for various atmospheric components measured along the A-Train orbit tracks. Additionally, the capability to generate AOD/PM2.5 correlation maps, a research tool for understanding the utility of satellite data for monitoring U.Spollution at various temporal and spatial scales, has been added to the Giovanni system.
We present several high pollution events in U.S based on these Giovanni analysis and visualization tools. On August 1-5, 2007 a combination of local pollution sources, long range transport of smoke from Canada and the U.S northwest, and hot and humid conditions lead to a high PM2.5 event over the eastern half of the continental U.S. CALIOP profile data from Giovanni are used here to analyze the vertical transport of the pollution plumes and to better understand the satellite observations and the relative contribution of the various pollution sources to surface PM2.5 concentrations. In the spring of 2007, large wildfires occurred in Georgia and Florida. During the active burning period, Atlanta experienced seven PM2.5 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) exceedances, most occurring during May. Correctly predicting air quality during a wildfire can be difficult, as shown by the missed Air Quality Index (AQI) forecasts for those exceedance days. We use ground-based and multi-satellite data to characterize the impact of these fires on air quality in the Atlanta metropolitan area. The AOD/PM2.5 correlations in conjunction with data on optical properties of urban aerosols and meteorological conditions are examined to determine satellite value-added information for improving air quality modeling in urban areas.

Welcome to the Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning
Facilitator: Carissa Froyum, Sociology
Learning is an emotional experience for students. When faculty challenge students' old ways of thinking, students often experience discomfort. Discomfort can be not only unpleasant from the students' perspective but create resistance or even hostility in the classroom. Emotions especially run high in classrooms which address social inequalities and other controversial issues. This presentation and discussion draws on the sociological research on emotions, inequality, and power to understand how faculty can manage emotions in the classroom in ways that both encourage learning and challenge students. We will cover: how emotion management is related to power, how faculty create expectations for emotions in the classroom (whether they know it or not), and some practical ways for managing emotions in the classes.
