2014 NFL combine: Manziel must melt Johnny Football persona
There was something different about Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel when he met the media Friday. He claimed a new view as a professional, but what face will he show NFL evaluators?
More Draft: NFL Mock Drafts | Prospect Rankings | NFL combine workout results
INDIANAPOLIS -- Under the watchful eye of his quarterbacks coach, Johnny Manziel took the podium at the NFL combine on Friday and did his best to transition from short-fused college athlete to singularly focused professional athlete.
Agents are not allowed in the media workroom at the combine, but George Whitfield was sitting in the middle of the second row among more than 100 journalists peppering Manziel with questions. Whitfield, the renowned quarterback guru who has been working with Manziel in San Diego for the past six weeks, had to be pleased with the well-rehearsed responses in the question-answer session.
"I have an opportunity now moving into a professional phase," Manziel said of his growth in the past year. "This is life now, this is a job for me, taking it very seriously and I'm really excited about the future."
Where that future will be could hinge largely on how Manziel handles himself throughout this week.
Agent Erik Burkhart convinced his client to pass on Sunday's throwing drills, whereas UCF's Blake Bortles has decided to participate. With NFLDraftScout.com analyst Dane Brugler calling it a "coin flip" between the two at this stage to be the No. 1 overall pick to the Houston Texans, Manziel is making a significant gamble to skip the drills and an opportunity to compete alongside his main competition.
Manziel said the competitor inside him wants to participate Sunday, but he's listening to his advisers and continuing to fine-tune his mechanics with Whitfield in advance of his March 27 pro day. Past No. 1 overall picks Andrew Luck and Cam Newton followed a similar strategy.
Manziel welcomes the opportunity to work out for teams individually.
"From what I've told every team, if they want to work me out privately, any throw they want to see me make at my pro day, any interview, any question they want to ask me, any throw they want to see me make at any time, I'm more than willing to do that," said Manziel.
The most polarizing prospect in this draft class, Manziel's game film generates vastly different projections from NFL teams. Those who believe his skill set is suited to success in the NFL likely don't need to see him compete toe-to-toe with Bortles and Louisville's Teddy Bridgewater. The bigger question is where Manziel is at mentally and whether he is prepared to become the face of an NFL franchise.
Is his next team getting Johnny Manziel, the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner, or Johnny Football, the trademarked wealthy party boy prone to social media rants?
"Johnny Manziel is a guy, I'm from a small town of Kerrville, Texas, 20,000 people," he said. "It gets lost in kind of the people who make me out to be a big Hollywood guy, really I'm just still a small-town kid.
"Sometimes you get caught up in certain things, but at the same time I'm continuing to learn and continuing to adapt to everything that's going on in my life. I'm not saying it's always easy, but continuing to be who I've always been is a big thing for me."
He denied reports that he saw a counselors last year for alcohol use and anger management, but acknowledged he did sit down with an "in-house guy" recommended by Aggies head coach Kevin Sumlin over the past two years. Manziel declined to get into specifics about the relationship, continually steering his answers back to his transition to preparing for the NFL.
Manziel is confident in his ability to take the next step.
He views himself as a leader on the field who his teammates trust with the ball in his hands, and a fiery competitor who will battle until the game clock reads zero.
The most important view right now, however, is held by the Houston Texans. While Manziel said Friday it would be "extremely cool" to stay in state as the top pick in the draft, he also ruffled some feathers with a perceived dare to the franchise last week when he told the Houston Chronicle that passing on him would be the worst decision the Texans have ever made.
Manziel took issue Friday with how that quote was packaged, and Texans general manager Rick Smith didn't appear bothered by the comment.
"He's a colorful, confident guy," said Smith. "You have to appreciate that."
If Smith and the Texans pass on Manziel, it will be a significant gamble with division rival Jacksonville in need of a franchise quarterback two picks later. Jaguars head coach Gus Bradley is in his second season since coming over from Seattle, where head coach Pete Carroll built a Super Bowl champion rife with bold personalities.
"You need to have confidence. It's one thing to have confidence and another to have humility," Bradley said when asked about Manziel. "Can you have confidence and humility? Why is that important? Because if you have humility, you can talk about your weaknesses and that's how you improve.
"That's what I'm excited to talk to him about in our meeting. The confidence is great and all that, but are you willing to get better and challenge yourself like Peyton Manning and all the great quarterbacks? Can he challenge himself in a way that's he open to being coached and self-evaluate the areas he needs to improve?"
Beyond his off-field persona, the biggest question about Manziel remains his height, listed at 5-11 3/4 on Friday. While short of the 6-foot mark, it's still an inch taller than Russell Wilson, the Seattle Seahawks' Super Bowl-winning quarterback.
"I feel like I play like I'm 10-feet tall," said Manziel. "A measurement to me is just a number."
He also is working hard to debunk the notion that he is more of a talented improviser who will struggle to succeed -- or stay healthy -- against NFL defenses.
"When you start comparing quarterbacks, and for us it is a comparison business when you start doing the draft and everything else, (it is) who has been successful with these measurables, what intangibles does he bring," said Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians. "With those guys, I go back to Doug Flutie and it took Doug a long time to be a very successful quarterback at that size and athletic ability.
"[Manziel] is a little bit different player than Drew Brees, who is a little taller. Russell was extremely successful this year. You are starting to see guys you can compare him to. But when you start, there are a bunch of 6-5 successful guys who are athletic. The 5-11 guys, it has to throw a question mark out there."
While Arians' team isn't in the market for one of this year's top quarterback prospects, his take on Manziel's skill set is no doubt shared by many NFL teams. And that is Manziel's main job in Indianapolis this week -- convincing the Texans, Jaguars and Cleveland Browns (owners of the No. 4 pick) that he's more Russell Wilson than a frightening combination of Doug Flutie's stature and Ryan Leaf's personality.
"I'm probably one of the most competitive people on the face of this earth, whether it's sitting here playing tic-tac-toe or rock, paper, scissors or whatever it may be, I want to win," said Manziel. "It's something that really dating back all the way to being a kid, I don't like the taste of losing, leaves a really sour taste in my mouth. I'm an extremely competitive person."

On 21st, April 2016 when HM The Queen reaches her 90th Birthday she's in fora big surprise – a huge, dedicated, digital Birthday Book celebrating and commemorating her remarkable life.
Inside she'll discover page-after-page of heartfelt good wishes, fond memories, personal stories, plus photos, film and videos from her subjects and admirers throughout Britain and the Commonwealth, as well as friends across the world.
The book is being created here at The Online Book Company where, in 2012, we produced a digital book for The Queen's 'Jubilee Hour' Campaign, in recognition of 60 years of Her Majesty's reign. We simply asked people to pledge 60 minutes of their lives in a charitable act – one minute for every year.
To our absolute delight, in excess of 2.75 million hours were pledged, deeming it the largest volunteer movement since WW2, and HM The Queen was said to be delighted!
Inspired by this success, we couldn't help but get involved in HM's 90th birthday celebrations and share some of the incredible goodwill and public affection that Her Majesty's landmark year will certainly produce.
With Morrells Wood Finishes Ltd being a Royal Warrant Holder we are reaching out to offer yourselves, your colleagues and your families the opportunity to leave HM The Queen a birthday message completely free of charge at www.thequeensbirthdaybook.com. Additionally it would be lovely if you would like to extend this opportunity to your customers.

The Freezer Diet
Is cooking really not your thing? Can't tell a saucepan from a frying pan? Does your refrigerator hold an old bottle of catsup and maybe something furry on the bottom shelf that resembles the cat you've not seen in a week? Or, maybe you're just pressed for time.
Never fear, the frozen food case could be the answer to your all-thumbs cooking and a hurry-up lifestyle. It also could undermine your health and waistline. It all depends on what you choose.
Frozen foods have several advantages over from-scratch cooking. They are super convenient, save you from messy kitchen clean up, and they stay fresh for months. They also are a great way to cook for one, since you can store anything from chicken breasts to orange juice concentrate in a use-as-you-need fashion. Without a doubt, portion control is their strongest asset. Portions have ballooned up to 10-fold in the past few decades, especially for calorie-packed foods like refined grains and meat. Frozen entrees, if chosen right, is one way to reign in those portions and help manage waistlines.
That's exactly what researchers found at the University of Illinois, Urbana. In their studies, adults followed diets based on the Food Guide Pyramid, with one group planning two of their three meals around frozen entrees, while the second group ate similar calorie ranges from self-selected foods. After eight weeks, the people eating packaged entrees had lost significantly more weight than other dieters (up to 23 pounds). The secret? Frozen entrees took the guesswork out of portions, while try as they might, even the most conscientious dieter overestimated self-selected portions, adding extra calories to the day's total.
6 Freezer-Food Rules
Of course, the freezer case also offers many calorie and artery-clogging items, especially if the food is breaded, pre-fried, in a crust, or prepared in sauce, or is a dessert, such as the frozen cakes, pies, cookie dough, and regular ice cream. Here are six basic rules that can help you navigate the freezer aisle, followed by healthy options for every meal, including dessert.
Rule #1: Count Calories: You want a meal that will satisfy for a realistic – not too much and not too little – calorie load. For example, a 210-calorie entree has fewer calories than a cup of fruited yogurt – that's a snack, not a meal. True, almost seven out of 10 Americans battle the bulge, but no one's diet should drop below 1,200 calories a day. If people ate a third of their calories at each meal, that means at least 400 calories. For main-meal items – from pancakes and burritos to entrees – aim for about 100 to 150 calories less than 1/3 your total day's calorie allotment. That leaves room for extras, such as milk, vegetables, or a salad.
Rule #2: Limit Total Fat: Look for foods that contain no more than 3 grams of fat for every 100 calories (example – a 350-calorie item should have no more than 10.5 grams of fat). Beware: Claims of "fat-free" or "low net carbs" doesn't necessarily mean low-calorie.
Rule #3 Cut Saturated & Trans Fat: Choose items with no more than 1 gram of saturated/trans fat for every 100 calories – less is better. Don't be fooled by size. Many frozen foods squeeze ladles of saturated fat into those itty bitty plastic trays. Stouffers Macaroni and Cheese, for example, is dripping with 14 grams of saturated fat or 70% of your day's total allowance. That's frozen fat, not frozen food!
Rule #4 Stay Sodium Savvy: One of the biggest challenges when choosing frozen foods is not going overboard on sodium. Some entrees supply more than 75% of your entire day's maximum allotment for sodium of 2,400 milligrams. Choose items with no more than 200 milligrams of sodium for every 100 calories (i.e., 600 milligrams sodium for a 300-calorie slice of pizza). If you select a food that is too high, then cut back on sodium elsewhere (unless you have high blood pressure, then all choices should be low-sodium).
Rule #5 Think Fiber & Protein: Whether frozen or fresh, choose foods that contribute 2+ grams of fiber per serving toward your daily goal of at least 25 grams. A general rule for main-course lunch and dinner entrees is that they provide at least 15 grams of protein.
Rule #6 Shop Beyond the Case: You can't live on freezer food alone. Plan to venture into the produce and dairy aisles to round-out any meal. Even these items needn't take much time to prepare. For example, add a glass of nonfat milk or a side of thawed berries to compliment your frozen breakfast, a piece of fruit, frozen fruit juice, or handful of baby carrots to accompany your frozen pizza at lunch, and an instant salad made from bagged lettuce along with a microwaved sweet potato or steamed frozen vegetables to accompany a frozen entrée.

The Latest Must-Read Nutrition News
1. De-Pressurize with Fish Oil: The omega-3s EPA and DHA lower blood pressure, according to a study from the University of East Anglia, UK. In this double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study, 312 adults with hypertension were given either placebos or fish oil supplements containing either 0.7 or 1.8 grams of EPA and DHA. Fasting blood pressure and blood vessel function were monitored. At the end of eight weeks, both fish oil supplemented groups showed significant reductions in blood pressure.

2. More Women Are Overweight: More American women than ever are well-above their ideal body weight, state researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta. According to the study, 40% of American women and 35% of men are obese. Among children, 17% are obese, while almost 6% are extremely obese. Overall, 38% of American adults are now classified as obese and almost 8% are extremely obese.

3. Multi-Vitamins Lower Heart Disease Risk: Men who take daily multi-vitamin supplements for years have lower risks for serious heart disease issues, according to a study from Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. The link between supplement use and heart disease risk was compared in a group of 18,530 men aged 40-years-old and older from the Physicians' Health Study. The men were free of heart disease and cancer at the study's start, and no differences were noted between those men who already were supplementing and those who were not. At the 12.2-year follow-up, those men who had been taking a multivitamin for 20 years or more prior to the study's start showed a 44% lower risk for serious heart disease problems, such as nonfat heart attack, nonfatal stroke, and death from heart disease. They also were less likely to require bypass surgery (called cardiac revascularization).

Food & Mood Tip – Feed Your Brain
Your brain is a nutrient-needy organ, entirely made up of what you choose to feed it. Diet is the only place the brain gets the building blocks to run its highly sophisticated computer system, which in turn runs the whole body. Eating very healthfully will reduce inflammation, improve blood flow, protect against aging and disease, provide all the necessary building blocks for making and rejuvenating healthy brain cells throughout life, enhance brain cell communication, and maximize energy use. Trust me, don't take your diet lightly – even one fatty meal has a subtle influence on your brain for up to 180 days! A grease-bomb burger also lowers testosterone levels in men, leaving them more interested in the recliner than the bedroom.
It goes even further than that. If you don't adopt a healthy diet (and exercise program, you can expect about a 5% decline in memory every decade after your 20s. A study from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland found that people who did not take care of their minds in their 20s through 50s were three times more likely to develop Alzheimers in their 60s and 70s. In contrast, seniors who eat right, move more, and live well react and problem solve just as quickly as people who are decades younger. If you don't want to be walking down Memory Lane in the future, you'd better start taking care of your brain now.

Your Nutrition Questions Answered
1. I know there are about 40+ nutrients that I need to get from my diet. Do my needs increase as I age?
Yes and no. Some nutrient requirements increase as we age, such as for vitamins B6 and D and calcium, while a few actually decrease, such as chromium and iron (for women). The rest stay constant through adulthood. However, most young and middle-aged people are already not consuming optimal diets packed with recommended levels of all the vitamins and minerals, so enter the latter years nutrient compromised. The solution? Throughout life take a moderate-dose multi vitamin and mineral that supplies 100% of the Daily Value for a wide variety of nutrients. Postmenopausal women should take a multi with less iron.
2. How much water should a healthy person drink every day?
The old adage to drink 8 glasses of water a day has been tossed out. A person's need for water depends on a number of factors, including age, activity level, how much that person perspires, environmental temperatures, gender, and more. The best bet is to drink enough water throughout the day that your urine is pale yellow. Dark yellow urine is a sign the body is dehydrated and is attempting to conserve fluids.

Food Finds/Food Fails:
Food Finds:
1. Seapoint Farms Dry Roasted Edamame: They are low in fat (more than half the fat of peanuts), very low in saturated fat (only 0.5 grams per 1/4 cup serving), pack in 7 grams of fiber, 14 grams of protein and a few nutrients, such as iron and calcium, all for only 130 calories. What a great snack! Yes, they have sodium, but the Spicy Wasabi helps pack an extra wallop of flavor. They are great sprinkled on Thai and Asian dishes, too!
2. Balsamic Vinegar: You can seriously cut your intake of sodium and sugar, as well as save a few dollars by switching from bottled salad dressings to just plain olive oil and balsamic vinegar. In Italy, that is all you will find. The salad comes to the table dressing-free, and the bottles of olive oil and vinegar are on the table, alongside the salt and pepper, for you to add as you see fit. For a touch more flavor, sprinkle with the sodium-free Trader Joe's 21 Seasoning Salute before tossing.
Food Fails:
1. Coconut Milk: Coconut is a fad the cycles around every ten years or so. It is not a health food. The "original" milk is sweetened with "organic cane sugar," which is exactly the same as table sugar, it is high in saturated fat, and has no added vitamin B2, a nutrient supplied in ample amounts from regular dairy milk. If you are determined to drink coconut milk, make sure it is at least fortified up to 25% of the Daily Value for Vitamin D, calcium, and vitamin B12. Personally, if I was lactose intolerant and couldn't drink regular low-fat milk, I would choose soymilk over this fad.
2. Love Grown Foods Oat Clusters Toasted Granola: This granola comes in a variety of flavors. Let's just talk about the Sweet Cranberry and Pear and the Cocoa Goodness. This brand is another example of why you should never believe a food is healthy just because it is sold in a Health Food store or because it has words like "natural" or "love" or "organic" on the label. The recommended serving is 1/4 cup. That is four measly tablespoons or about the size of an apricot. Apparently, you are not supposed to fill your bowl with this granola, but rather sprinkle a few grains over another cereal, such as Shredded Wheat or Grapenuts. For that tiny serving you consume 130 calories, 5 grams of fat, and almost 2 teaspoons of sugar. But hey, it' is "evaporated cane juice" and "apple juice concentrate," which sounds healthy, but actually is just plain old concentrated sugar. Save your shopping dollars. The best granola I've found so far is Oat Cuisine (manufactured in Alameda, California) and KIND granolas.

Wearable patch claims to keep mosquitoes away for 48 hours
Kite Patch, a new wearable patch claims to make you "invisible" to mosquitoes for 48 hours, is shown in this Vimeo screengrab. (Screengrab/Kite Patch)
Published Wednesday, July 24, 2013 11:16AM EDT
Just in time for mosquito season, a new wearable patch claims to make you "invisible" to mosquitoes for 48 hours -- all while helping to battle malaria in the developing world.
The Kite Patch -- backed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the U.S.-based National Institutes of Health -- launched an Indiegogo campaign this week with the goal of raising $75,000, which it raised in just four days.
As of July 23, the company had raised more than $150,000, with 38 days of the campaign remaining.
The patch works by blocking mosquitoes' ability to detect carbon dioxide in our breath, which is the bugs' primary way of finding you.
Best part, it's nontoxic: the company says the active ingredient is considered safe by the US Food and Drug Administration and can be used by young children and pregnant women -- populations most affected by malaria in many countries.
"It will provide a new level of protection for children in Uganda, for young families in South Africa, and hikers in Seattle or Wyoming or Florida seeking a safer, socially-responsible solution," Grey Frandsen, chief marketing officer at ieCrowd, the company behind the patch, said in a statement.
"We built Kite to be simple and affordable -- a small colorful sticker that will appeal to children and adults and survive the rigors of extreme climates, play time, or outdoor recreation."
Meanwhile, Australian researchers announced earlier this month that they were closing in on a potential vaccine against malaria, with a study showing their treatment had protected mice against several strains of the disease.
Details on how much the patch will cost consumers and when it will be ready for mass distribution are not set yet, only that it will vary from market to market, tech blog Gigaom reports.

A homeowner sued the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation [Freddie Mac] for breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty.
Freddie Mac had purchased the homeowner's mortgage from the loan originator on the secondary
market. The loan originator continued to service the loan and failed to pay the insurance premium
from an escrow account which caused the homeowner's insurance to be cancelled. The federal district court dismissed the complaint against Freddie Mac. The Ninth Circuit affirmed because the
homeowner "expressly agreed in the mortgage contract that a subsequent purchaser of the loan would
not assume any servicing obligations." (Johnson v. Fed. Home Loan Mortg. Corp. (Ninth Cir. July 14, 2015) 793 F.3d 1005.)
An adverse possessor obtained a lis pendens but failed to mail it to the address shown in the assessor's roll, an address known to be invalid. The Court of Appeal found the lis pendens void, stating: "[U]nder the applicable statues, the lis pendens had to be mailed to the [property owner's] address as shown on the assessor's roll, regardless of whether that address was actually valid; because this was not done, the lis pendens is void." (Carr v. Rosien (Cal. App. Fourth Dist., Div. 2; July 14, 2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 845 [190 Cal. Rptr.3d 245].)
A social worker, who was not assigned to the then-15-year-old foster child volunteered to transport the child to his new foster home. The transfer was completed without incident, but the social worker went back to the new foster home after hours and picked up the child. He took him to a liquor store and then back to his apartment where he sexually attacked the child. The child thereafter brought an action against the County, relying on the holding in Mary M. v. City of Los Angeles (1991) 54 Cal.3d 202 [285 Cal. Rptr. 99, 814 P.2d 1341], a case involving a female motorist stopped late at night by a city police officer who raped her, which case held the woman could sue the city under a theory of respondeat superior. In the present case, the trial court granted summary judgment in favor of the County. Expressing doubt that Mary M could be applied beyond the narrow context of an arrest performed by a uniformed, armed police officer in the normal course of that officer's duties, the Court of Appeal affirmed, finding the
undisputed facts here take this case out of Mary M.'s reach. The appeals court noted the attack
took place several hours after the social worker finished his shift and that he had already
delivered the child to the new home without incident. (Z.V. v. County of Riverside (Cal. App.
Fourth Dist., Div. 3; July 16, 2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 889 [189 Cal.Rptr.3d 570].)
Plaintiff, who is disabled, was denied service at defendant's restaurant due to presence of plaintiff's service dog. After hearing various motions, the trial court concluded plaintiff could assert a claim under the Disabled Persons Act [DPA; Civil Code section 54055.3], but not under the Unruh Civil Rights Act [Civil Code sections 51, 52]. Plaintiff voluntarily dismissed his action,
which ordinarily does not result in an appealable judgment or order, but the Court of Appeal permitted the appeal, stating that "appellate courts treat a voluntary dismissal with prejudice as an appealable order if it was entered after an adverse ruling by the trial court in order to expedite
an appeal of the ruling." Noting the DPA specifically states its remedies are nonexclusive, the Court of Appeal reversed, stating plaintiff could proceed under both statutes. (Flowers v. Prasad (Cal. App. Second Dist., Div. 4; July 17, 2015) 238 Cal. App.4th 930 [190 Cal.Rptr.3d 33].)
Plaintiff purchased a used automobile from a private party, and thereafter sued Ford Motor Co. alleging violations of the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act [Civil Code section
1790 et seq.]. Ford's motion for summary judgment was granted because Civil Code section 1791(l)
requires the seller to be a "retail seller" engaged in the business of selling or leasing
consumer goods to retail buyers. However, after the motion had been filed, plaintiff sought leave
to amend to allege violation of the federal "lemon law" under the Magnuson-Moss Act [15 U.S.C. §
2301], but the trial court denied the request. The Court of Appeal affirmed the grant of summary
judgment, but reversed and remanded on the amendment request, finding the trial court abused its
discretion. (Dagher v. Ford Motor Co. (Cal. App. Fourth Dist., Div. 1; July 17, 2015) 238
Cal.App.4th 905 [190 Cal.Rptr.3d 261].)
In a dispute involving construction of a condominium project, defendants failed to file a responsive pleading after the court denied defendants' petition to order the matter into arbitration. The trial court entered a $1.7 million default judgment. Defendants moved for mandatory relief pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 473(b), which the trial court denied because the attorney declaration was "not credible" and "too general." Weeks later, defendants renewed their motion with a more detailed declaration. Several times the trial court stated the more detailed explanation was not credible, but granted relief nonetheless. The trial court also expressed that, although the renewed motion did not meet the requirements for a motion for reconsideration under Code of Civil Procedure section 1008, it felt bound to follow Standard Microsystems Corp. v. Winbond Electronics Corp. (2009) 179 Cal.App.4th 868 [102 Cal.Rptr.3d 140], a decision that held Code of Civil Procedure section 1008, does not apply to a renewed Code of Civil Procedure section 473(b), motion for mandatory relief. After declining to follow the holding in Standard Microsystems, the appellate court reversed and ordered reinstatement of the judgment, concluding the trial court lacked jurisdiction to consider the renewed motion as Code of Civil Procedure section 1008, requires action within a short period of time. (Even Zohar Construction & Remodeling, Inc. v. Bellaire Townhouses, LLC (2013) 215 Cal.App.4th 277 [155 Cal.Rptr.3d 321] –NOT CITABLE.)
The California Supreme Court stated the Court of Appeal is correct. The high court held Code of Civil Procedure section 1008, governs renewed applications under Code of Civil Procedure section 473(b), for relief from default based on an attorney's sworn affidavit attesting to his or her mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or neglect. The court stated that because defendants concede their renewed application did not satisfy Code of Civil Procedure section 1008, the Court of Appeal's decision vacating the superior courts order granting relief from default is affirmed. (Even Zohar Construction & Remodeling, Inc. v. Bellaire Townhouses, LLC (Cal. Sup. Ct.; July 20, 2015) 61 Cal.4th 830 [189 Cal.Rptr.3d 824, 352 P.3d 391].)
Family Code section 771, subdivision (a), provides that earnings and accumulations of a spouse while living separate and apart from the other spouse are separate property of the spouse. In this case, the couple was separated but still living in the same home. The Court of Appeal concluded Family Code section 771, subdivision (a), requires the spouses to be living in separate residences in order for their earnings and accumulations to be their separate property. (In re Marriage of Davis (Cal. Sup. Ct.; July 20, 2015) 61 Cal.4th 846 [189 Cal.Rptr.3d 835, 352 P.3d 401].)
In a special verdict, a jury found two defendant motorists were negligent but concluded only one of them was a substantial factor is causing injuries to a bicyclist on a sidewalk. Thus, only one of the defendants was held responsible for plaintiff's $3,751,969 in damages. On appeal the defendant who was left on the hook claimed the verdict was inconsistent. The appellate court disagreed, holding the jury was entitled to conclude the other defendant only slightly exceeded a reasonable speed and was not a substantial factor in causing the injuries to plaintiff. The remaining defendant also argued on appeal that she is entitled to a new trial on damages because there was insufficient evidence of the reasonable value of the uninsured plaintiff's medical bills. She contends plaintiff's experts, who testified the medical bills were fair and reasonable, needed to do more to establish that their testimony was rooted in the "market value" of medical services. The appellate court rejected this argument, noting plaintiff's experts testimony was based on the medical costs incurred as well as on the experts' own experiences treating patients. (Bermudez v. Ciolek (Cal. App. Fourth Dist., Div. 3; July 20, 2015) 237 Cal.App.4th 1311 [188 Cal.Rptr.3d 820].)
A California lawyer telephoned an Arizona lawyer to inquire about title and ownership of equipment the California lawyer's client was contemplating buying from a Texas company. He left a voicemail message, and the Arizona lawyer returned the call. The Arizona lawyer represented he was the lawyer for the Texas company, and that his client was the sole owner of the equipment. Based on the Arizona lawyer's representations, the California lawyer advised his client to go forward with the equipment purchase. As it turned out, a New York bank also had an interest in the equipment, and the purchaser brought a legal malpractice action against the California lawyer. The California lawyer cross-complained against the Arizona lawyer for equitable indemnity, negligence, intentional and negligent misrepresentation and concealment. The trial court granted the Arizona lawyer's motion to quash, finding the Arizona lawyer did not purposefully avail himself to benefits in California, commenting: "It seems just such a random attenuated and insufficient contact to establish specific jurisdiction." In reversing, the Court of Appeal stated: "Clark personally availed himself other benefits of California when he reached into California to induce Moncrief's client to complete the equipment purchase." (Moncrief v. Clark (Cal. App. Sixth Dist., July 21, 2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 1000 [189 Cal.Rptr.3d 864].)
In a criminal matter involving drugs being smuggled from Mexico into the U.S., the defendant was precluded from testifying about the "favors" a friend in Mexico had asked of him. Defendant's contention was that in granting his friends "favors," he had been manipulated into smuggling drugs across the border. One "favor" was a request defendant drive someone to the DMV in San Ysidro, about eight miles north of the border. Another "favor" was to drive someone to a tire shop in San Diego. Government lawyers objected to the proffered testimony as hearsay and the federal district court sustained the objection. In affirming, the Ninth Circuit noted that as a general rule, a party is prohibited from introducing a statement made by an out-of-court declarant when it is offered at trial to prove the truth of the matter asserted. Here, defendant argued he offered the testimony, not for its truth, but to show its effect on the listener. The appeals court, however, found the proffered questions fell within the realm of hearsay, even though sometimes questions may constitute non-hearsay. The court stated: "[Defendant] offered the questions for this intended implied message to show it was [the friend] who was calling the shots and who unknowingly set him up on the drug importation scheme. Thus, [defendant] offered the statements for the truth of the defense asserted." (United States v. Torres (Ninth Cir.; July 22, 2015) 794 F.3d 1053.)
In a marital dissolution action, Judge #1 ruled an agreement was not enforceable. Judge #2 reconsidered the matter over three years later, on the court's own motion, and ruled the agreement was enforceable. On appeal, the wife asserted Judge #2 erred in granting reconsideration of Judge #1's ruling. In reversing, the Court of Appeal found Judge #2's actions were not covered by any recognized exceptions to the general rule that one trial judge cannot overrule another trial judge. Rather, the appeals court found the record reflected that Judge #2 disagreed with the ruling of Judge #1 and overruled Judge #1. (In re Marriage of Oliverez (Cal. App. Sixth Dist., July 24, 2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 1242 [190 Cal.Rptr.3d 436].)
In a class action involving a retailer's practice of requesting personal information from consumers during credit card transactions, the settlement agreement between the parties provided the retailer would not oppose class counsel's application for court approval of attorney fees and costs in the amount of $210,000 and payment to plaintiff of an incentive award in the amount of $3,500. The initial complaint listed California counsel as plaintiffs' counsel of record and several out-of-state lawyers with the notation "pro hac vice admittance to be sought." One of the lawyers practices in Illinois, but while an application for admission pro hac vice in California was filed, no order was ever issued because the application was defective. At the time of the motion to confirm the settlement, the court conducted a hearing on a renewed application and denied it because of "the great number of pro hac vice applications" [Rule 9.40(b) of the California Rules of Court states: "Absent special circumstances, repeated appearances by any person under this rule is a cause for denial of an application."] The trial court approved the settlement, awarded $11,000 in fees and $500 as a plaintiff's incentive. The Court of Appeal affirmed, stating "A fundamental principle of California law, enshrined in the State Bar Act (Business & Professions Code section 6000 et seq.), is that no person may 'practice law in California' unless that person is an active member of the State Bar. (Bus. & Prof. Code § 6125.) As a corollary principle, no person may recover compensation for practicing law 'in California' unless that person was a member of the State Bar or admitted pro hac vice at the time the services were performed, or the legal services fall within an exception." (Golba v. Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. (Cal. App. Fourth Dist., Div. 3; July 24, 2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 1251 [190 Cal.Rptr.3d 337].)
A man prepared a holographic will providing that, upon his death, his wife would inherit his estate and that if he and his wife died at the same time, specific charities would inherit his estate. The handwritten will, however, contained no provision addressing the disposition of his estate if, as occurred here, he lived longer than his wife. Finding the man died intestate, the probate court entered judgment in favor of the heirs at law, and the charities appealed. The California Supreme Court held that an unambiguous will may be reformed if clear and convincing evidence establishes that the will contains a mistake in the expression of the testator's intent at the time the will was drafted and also establishes the testator's actual specific intent at the time the will was drafted. The high court stated: "We further conclude that the charities' theory that the testator actually intended at the time he drafted his will to provide that his estate would pass to the charities in the event his wife was not alive to inherit the estate is sufficiently particularized, with respect to the existence of such a mistake and the testator's intent, that the remedy of reformation is available so long as clear and convincing evidence on both points is demonstrated. Therefore, we will direct this matter to be remanded to the probate court for consideration of whether clear and convincing evidence establishes that such a mistake occurred at the time the will was written and that the testator at that time intended his estate to pass to the charities in the event his wife was not alive to inherit the estate when he died." (Estate of Duke (Cal. Sup. Ct.; July 27, 2015) 61 Cal.4th 871 [190 Cal.Rptr.3d 295, 352 P.3d 863].)
In an unlawful detainer action in which the defendant filed a motion to quash contending she was not properly served with the three-day notice to pay rent or quit in a manner prescribed by law. She included evidence the notice was left on the ground in an unmarked envelope on the side of her apartment unit. The trial court denied the motion to quash, twice, once before and once after an alternative writ of mandate was issued directing the court to either vacate its order denying the motion to quash service of summons and complaint or show cause why a preemptory writ should not issue. The second time around, the trial court determined the proper scope and standard of a motion to quash is the same as that of a demurrer and therefore limited to challenging the sufficiency of the pleadings. Defendant asked the appellate division of the superior court to rule that a trial court may consider extrinsic evidence in support of a motion to quash. The appellate division granted a writ of mandate, stating: "Affidavits and declarations contained in the motion to quash together with the verified complaint may be competent evidence sufficient for the trial court to determine the jurisdictional issues raised by the motion." (Borsuk v. Sup. Ct. (La Hillcreste Apartments, LLC) (Cal. Super. Ct.; July 22, 2015) 238 Cal.App.4th Supp. 1, [190 Cal.Rptr.3d 529].)
A Commission in the State of Washington regulates the practice of pharmacy. Violation of the Commission's rules constitutes grounds for revocation of a pharmacy license. The rules require a pharmacist to deliver lawfully prescribed drugs or devices to patients, and a pharmacy objecting to the rules may not refer a patient to another pharmacy. The rules do not require an individual pharmacist to dispense medication if the pharmacist has a religious, moral, philosophical, or personal objection, and a pharmacy may accommodate an objecting pharmacist in any way the pharmacy deems suitable, including having another pharmacist available in person or by telephone. Plaintiffs are the owners of a pharmacy, which declines to stock emergency contraceptive drugs because the owners have religious objections to their use and two individual pharmacists who have religious objections to delivering emergency contraceptives to patients, all of whom challenge the rules under the Free Exercise and Equal Protection Clauses of the United States Constitution. Defendants are members of the Commission and the Secretary of Washington State Department of Health. After a bench trial, the trial court found the Commission's rules were unconstitutional under the Free Exercise Clause. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the judgment, stating: "We recognize that there is a 'trend of protecting conscientious objectors to abortions,' []and that most—if not all—states do not require pharmacies to deliver prescriptions, such as Plan B and ella [emergency contraceptives], in a timely manner. On balance, however, we are unconvinced that the right to own, operate, or work at a licensed professional business free from regulations requiring the business to engage in activities that one sincerely believes leads to the taking of human life is 'so rooted in the traditions and conscience of our people as to be ranked as fundamental.' [] Accordingly, we decline to recognize a new fundamental right. [¶] Because the rules do not infringe a fundamental right, they need only be 'rationally related to legitimate government interests.' [T]he rules meet that test." (Stormans, Inc. v. Wiesman (Ninth Cir.; July 23, 2015) 794 F.3d 1064.)
In an excessive force wrongful death action against police officers, a jury found that two of the three officers did not use excessive force and the third did use excessive force, but, that force was not a substantial factor in causing the death. The court entered judgment in favor of defendants and awarded defendants costs of $66,453.02. On appeal, the plaintiff, decedent's mother, contended the trial court erred in denying her motion in limine to exclude evidence of decedent's cocaine intoxication at the time of the incident, but the appeals court found no abuse of discretion. Additionally, the appellate court found the trial court's failure to instruct on negligence regarding the officers' tactical decisions to be harmless error. With regard to other claims of inadequate jury instructions, the Court of Appeal noted the officer "had to make a series of split-second decisions as to whether and how to detain [decedent] and what degree of force was required…Thus, [the officer] could not be held liable unless he acted with a purpose to cause harm." As to the costs' award, the appellate court rejected defendants' argument a separate appeal was necessary. The court stated: "A cost award that is incidental to a judgment may be challenged on an appeal from the judgment even though the amount of costs was filled in on the judgment after the notice of appeal was filed." Because there was no basis for awarding attorney fees, plaintiff contended that defendants' claim for over $40,000 in paralegal costs should have been rejected, but the appellate court stated: "[T]hese costs reflected amounts the defendants incurred for preparation and presentation of electronic evidence, including videos of deposition testimony, exhibits and excerpts from audio recordings, at trial," and that "these costs are neither specifically allowable under Code of Civil Procedure section 1033.5, subdivision (a), nor prohibited by subdivision (b). They may be awarded provided they are 'reasonably necessary to the conduct of the litigation rather than merely convenient or beneficial to its preparation.'" The court noted that jurors expect the use of technology and the trial court did not abuse its discretion in awarding the cost of that technology. The judgment was affirmed. (Green v. County of Riverside (Cal. App. Fourth Dist., Div. 1; July 29, 2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 1363 [190 Cal.Rptr.3d 693].)
Plaintiff is a stock photography company that serves as a licensing agent for dozens of photographers, authorizing third parties to use copyrighted photographs. Plaintiff brought an action against a textbook publisher it claims exceeded its license by publishing more books than permitted under the license. The trial court ruled that plaintiff, as a licensing agent, lacked statutory standing to bring an infringement suit. In reversing, the Ninth Circuit stated: "Because we conclude the Agency Agreements convey the rights to reproduce, distribute, and display the photographs to [plaintiff] via an 'exclusive license' to grant licenses to third parties, we hold that [plaintiff] may bring an infringement action to remedy the unauthorized reproduction, distribution, and display of the photographs by those to whom it has granted licenses." (Minden Pictures, Inc. v. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (Ninth Cir.; July 29, 2015) 795 F.3d 997.)
Defendant's business arranges for transportation of cargo from the Long Beach and Los Angeles ports to warehouses, and plaintiffs are truck drivers. Prior to implementation of a clean air program at the ports in 2008, truck drivers generally owned their own trucks and worked as independent contractors. After the clean air program was implemented, older higher-emission trucks were no longer permitted at the ports, so defendant purchased trucks to comply with the new rules. But defendant continued to treat the drivers as independent contractors, requiring them to enter into lease agreements for the use of the trucks and deducting lease and insurance payments from their paychecks. Plaintiffs brought this action to recover those deductions on the basis they are now employees and not independent contractors. Both the Labor Commissioner and the Superior Court held the drivers are now employees and not independent contractors. The Superior Court awarded damages to the truck drivers. Stating the principal test of an employment relationship is whether the person to whom service is rendered has the right to control the manner and means of accomplishing the result desired, the Court of Appeal affirmed. (Garcia v. Seacon Logix (Cal. App. Second Dist., Div. 4; July 30, 2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 1476 [190 Cal.Rptr.3d 400].)

A novel about a Frenchman with a supernatural ability to distinguish scents has been chosen to represent the city of Leeds in a project to mark World Book Day today.
For no particularly obvious reason, Patrick Suskind's Perfume, set in the 18th century, has been paired with the Yorkshire city traditionally known for its clothing and engineering industries in a project called One Book, One City.
In a cultural experiment that could be repeated nationally next year, the city will mark World Book Day by hosting events relating to the book organised by the publisher Penguin. For instance, at 1pm, in the oldest pub in the city, the Whitelocks, anyone who cares to join in can get together to read and discuss the novel.
Penguin organised the Leeds event after learning of the success of a similar project in Chicago. Leeds was chosen because it has a remarkably high number of libraries, 59, as well as two dozen known reading groups associated with the city's many bookstores. Perfume, which has gained a loyal following and sold more than 600,000 copies since it was first published, was the choice of a straw poll of Penguin staff.
A Penguin spokeswoman said: "We wanted to do something to celebrate reading for World Book Day, and we wanted to do something outside London, as publishing is sometimes seen as being London-based."
At least some cityfolk have embraced the work. In three days, the bookshop Borders has sold 140 copies of Perfume, which has been in print for 16 years – although a special promotional discount price of £2 might have something to do with its popularity.Reuse content

Fiscal Illusion at the Local Level: An Empirical Test Using Australian Municipal Data
This paper seeks to extend the literature on the empirical analysis of fiscal illusion in two ways. First, it provides a simultaneous test of four specific hypotheses subsumed under fiscal illusion, namely the revenue-complexity, renter illusion, debt illusion and flypaper models. And, second, it adds evidence drawn from the Australian institutional milieu to existing empirical work that has an overwhelming North American focus. Using 1991 data from forty-six local government authorities in Tasmania, the results suggest significant support for revenue-complexity, debt illusion, and the degree of indirectness of the revenue system.

Three-quarters of schools and districts implementing mobile devices are doing so in specific grades or content areas rather than as part of 1:1 computing initiatives, according to a new survey from Mimio.
Although 78 percent of respondents told researchers they "anticipate that mobile devices will be useful tools for the Common Core assessments in the 2014-15 school year," most, 74 percent, reported that they use the devices for both instruction and assessment.
Other key findings of the survey include:
"This latest survey confirms that the use of mobile devices is not a fad," stated Manny Perez, president and chief operating officer, Mimio. "It's a real paradigm shift in the way educational technology supports learning. Right now, we're seeing that mobile devices are being used more as test phases or pilots for certain grades or content areas. However, according to 69 percent of respondents, over the next two years we should see mobile-device use expand across school grades and content areas."

Just what is life? What do we really know about God? What do we really know about the universe? Is there intelligent life out there? Are we likely to encounter aliens in our lifetime? Is there more than one universe? Will parallel universes soon be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt? These are just some of the questions that two friend have been asking since we were in grammar school together over 70 years ago.
From its launch in 1920 until its demise in 1951, the magazine Black Mask published pulp crime fiction. The first hard-boiled detective stories appeared on its pages. Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, Erle Stanley Gardner and John D. MacDonald got their start in Black Mask. The urban crime stories that appeared in Black Mask helped to shape American culture. Modern computer games, films, and television are rooted in the fiction popularized by the magazine.

Forex: USD/JPY rises to 91.60, fresh intra-day high
FXstreet.com (Córdoba) - The Yen is falling sharply across the board and extended losses after the release of GDP in the U.S. Also the rally in stocks is not helping the Yen. USD/JPY rose to 91.60 posting a fresh intra-day high and currently trades near the highs at 91.55/58, 1.00% above today's opening price. The pair is recovering from yesterdays losses. Earlier in the morning USD/JPY fell to 90.21, hitting the lowest price in a week.
Michael J. Malpede, analyst at Easy Forex affirms: The Nikkei closed 184 points lower. The decline in the Nikkei initially sparked safe haven flows to the JPY. Japan's economy continues to improve with industrial output reported higher for the seventh month in a row. September output rose by 1.4%. In addition, manufacturing output rose 3.1% in October and 1.9% in November according to METI. Inventories fell to the lowest level in 21 years. These reports will likely encourage the BOJ to soon begin to withdraw stimulus and exit its bond support program. There are reports that the BOJ may end the corporate support plan as early as Friday.

Our beaten, bloodied and bruise party stood before the gold-trimmed door, attempting to unravel the secret means of accessing the treasures beyond it. Decimated after a fierce battle with skeletal knights, we should be making haste to the nearest healing stone, but we'd caught the whiff of treasure, and there was no turning back.
The battle had taken its toll. Our Minotaur fallen, our Magic-User utterly exhausted, and our sole remaining Warrior on the precipice of death; rest and recuperation was desperately needed, but that door-that glorious door. Surely there would be no harm in taking a peek.
Finally we discerned the secret means of unlocking the portal, and as the heavy doors swung wide our minds reeled with possibilities. Was it treasure? Food? Magical scrolls? The stone slid aside to reveal…
…four more skeletal warriors. And that's how the energy drink got all over my desk.
When I was a much younger man I reveled in the anxious fear that washed over me every time I played a first-person 3D dungeon crawler like Dungeon Master, Wizardry, or Eye of the Beholder. Though primitive, that immediate view and the hint of danger lurking around every corner terrified me in a wonderful way. The thought that—at any moment—my carefully cultivated party of four could be laid waste at the hands of some hideous beast caused more than a few panicked blind runs through dark and musty catacombs.
I thought I was immune to this sort of succulent terror. That delicious tension replaced by the cheap scares of today's more "advanced" titles.
Almost Human's Legend of Grimrock proved me wrong.
As advertised, Legend of Grimrock is an old-school dungeon crawler with updated graphics. You either create or accept a pre-made group of four adventures and delve into the depths of a multi-floored dungeon, putting your party at risk on square at a time.
You put the warriors in the front, the caster and rogue in the back. When monsters appear you hightail it to the nearest dead end to make sure nothing sneaks up behind you. You scan the walls for hitting buttons to solve intricate puzzles. You mix potions to cure poison and heal wounds using items scraped from the dungeon floor. You distribute skill points when your characters level up, unlocking skills and enhancing stats. You feed your party chunks of monster meat to survive.
You save often.
Legend of Grimrock launches on April 11, with good-packed preorders now available at GOG.com, Steam, and the game's official website. $14.99 ($11.99 if you preorder) pays for the just the one dungeon, but the promise of expansions and player-created content should add up to a massive return on a modest investment.

(This is certainly 'food-for-thought'. What do you think?)
This is very interesting and we all need to read it
from start to finish And send it on to everyone.
Maybe this is why our Canadian Muslims are
so quiet and not speaking out about any atrocities.
Can a good Muslim be A good Canadian?
This question was forwarded to a man who worked
in Saudi Arabia for 20 years. The following is his reply:
Theologically - no. . . .
Because his allegiance is to Allah, The moon God of Arabia.
Religiously - no. . .
Because no other religion is accepted by His Allah Except Islam (Quran, 2:256)(Koran)
Scripturally - no.. . .
Because his allegiance is to the five Pillars of Islam and the Quran.
Geographically - no .
Because his allegiance is to Mecca, to which he Turns in prayer five times a day.
Socially - no. . ..
Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to make Friends with Christians or Jews ..
Politically - no. . .
Because he must submit to the mullahs (spiritual Leaders),
who teach annihilation of Israel, America and destruction of Canada , We are the great Satan.
Domestically - no.. .. .
Because he is instructed to marry four Women and
Beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him (Quran 4:34 )
Intellectually - no. .
Because he cannot accept the American Constitution
since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes
the Bible to be corrupt.
Spiritually - no.. . .
Because when we declare 'one nation under God,'
The Christian's God is loving and kind, while Allah
is NEVER referred to As Heavenly father, nor is he
ever called love in the Quran's 99 Excellent names.
Therefore, after much study and deliberation....
perhaps we should be Very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS
in this country. - - - They obviously Cannot be both
good' Muslims and good Canadians.
Call it what you wish
it's still the truth. You had better believe it. The more who
understand This, the better it will be for our country and our future.
The religious war is bigger than we know or understand. ......
Footnote: The Muslims have said they will destroy us from within..

What a great day of worship and time with our family as we celebrated our risen Lord! Watching the Bible on the History channel has really overwhelmed me to see how much of a sacrifice and how much pain Jesus underwent to go to the cross. And how much love!! So thankful we serve a living God!
Our feeble attempt to snap a few pictures as we were running out the door! You can see our concrete that still needs to be stained:/
After church we headed to Nana and Papa's for lunch and an Easter egg hunt.
Macy's silly smile!
Sweet girl waiting on lunch
Papa and Nathan
So sweet to see how much these cousins love each other!
Getting a picture of all the cousins with Nana and Papa. Macy holding Mallory's hand...
Papa holding Nathan and Eden
A few more attempts to get a picture of the girls together...
The Skaggs' boys
Kristin made their ties and they looked so cute!
After lunch, changed and ready for instructions from Nana...
Due to the weather, we hunted eggs in the garage and the kids had so much fun! We let the three little ones go first so they had a fighting chance...
Then we unleashed the big ones!
Nana and Papa had some fun games planned after the hunt: ring toss, pin the tail on the bunny, relay race with eggs on spoons, and Bingo. They put so much into it and everyone had a great time!
As we were getting ready to leave, I found this little stinker in the kitchen sneaking some more jelly beans!
Happy Easter!!

Eugenie Bouchard A Marketer's Dream; Agent Says She Can Challenge Maria Sharapova
Published January 23, 2014
ON THE RISE: In Sydney, Walsh, Swanton & McDonald wrote this Australian trip "has gone spectacularly for Bouchard, and further good fortune befell the Canadian" Wednesday. Her "star is clearly on the rise across Canada," but those in her native Quebec "have been aware of her for a couple of years now." Announced as Canada's Sportswoman of the Year "shortly before she began her Australian Open preparations in Perth, Bouchard spent some of her off-season at home in Montreal" (THE AUSTRALIAN, 1/23).
