NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- People would be hard-pressed to find a comedian who was named after his mother's lesbian lover.
That is the story of J Lamarr, a new comic growing in popularity around Middle Tennessee."People always have to digest that when I tell them that I'm named after my mother's girlfriend," said Lamarr, whose real name is Ja-kay Matheny.Lamarr was born and raised in Gary, Ind., also the birthplace of Michael Jackson. He says the entire city went crazy on the rare occasions when the King of Pop returned to his hometown."I remember when I was a kid, he (Jackson) went to Kentucky Fried Chicken. We all skipped school to see Michael Jackson go to KFC. Unfortunately, I didn't see him but I laid eyes on the vehicles as it drove away."From an early age, Lamarr knew that comedy was a way to escape physical and mental pain. When his mother whipped him, he would make silly noises and crack jokes so she would stop and drop the belt."When she laughed, she dropped the belt and that's when I knew it was over," Lamarr recalled.Similarly, he explained that dark times are what inspire comedy for many comedians."Most of us use humor so that no one can see our pain," he said. "The truth hurts or it becomes comedy. Your pain is going to be funny to somebody."Lamarr has only been a professional comedian for a little less than a year."It is ridiculously hard when you're starting out," he said. "You're driving to a city where no one knows your name. No one knows who you are."After routinely making his friends, family and co-workers laugh, Lamarr says the moment of truth is when he grabs the microphone on stage."Early in the beginning you don't even know if you're funny. You have to stand up in front of a bunch of people who really don't care about you. They're not going to laugh just to spare your feelings." Said Lamarr, who is also quick to explain how endurance is a key factor in comedy just as much as the jokes.Comedians have to have a lot of jokes on standby and also remain prepared for hecklers."If you don't have endurance you won't make it," said Lamarr.Another dark part of comedy is the wind-down after the show."After the show is over, you're back to just being you. You just had the spotlight and a great time getting laughs. Because of that, you don't want to leave the club. I don't want to say it's depressing after a show, but it's odd."Lamarr has been perfoming in Shelbyville, Madison, Murfreesboro, Cookeville, Nashville and other cities in Middle Tennessee. He's become known for his rather strange humor, which he calls "humor of an odd black guy.""If you hear some of my stories, it's not normal," he said. "What other male you know is named after his mother's girlfriend? A lot of stuff about me is weird. I married my mother's girlfriend's daughter. My humor is odd. It's not what you expect to hear."The 28 year-old comedian is inspired by many other comedians, including Martin Lawrence and Chris Tucker. But he relates the most to Kevin Hart, who isn't shy about telling jokes about his family."I got married early and had kids in high school," Lamarr said. "When I heard Kevin Hart and other comedians talk about their families, it made me laugh."Lamarr is known for his lack of eyebrows, something that people never fail to bring to his attention."I didn't even notice until the sixth grade," he recalled. "I caught the bus to school. I had a baby picture as my ID picture. And this one boy looked at me and told me I didn't have eyebrows. All of a sudden people started calling me names. They called me a Ninja Turtle, Kermit The Frog and every other animal that doesn't have eyebrows."Lamarr doesn't mind joking about himself during his comedy routines. In fact, he says a comedy secret is to joke about himself and then about others."It eases the crowd when you talk about yourself first," he explained. "Then you can joke about people you see in the audience. Otherwise people perceive it as a personal attack."The young comedian is always looking for opportunities to perform."If you know anybody that needs a good comic, let me know," he said.

text: I apologize for the cross-post, but I am in need of help. Using moab server version 5.1.0p9 (snap NA) (rev. 8933) and torque 2.3.0 Here is what has happened. We have a group using the cluster that needs 16GB RAM. We added RAM to a compute node, and brought the node back up. Torque sees the node, and pbsnodes reports the RAM at 16GB. This group was happy to submit a job and know that in about 24 hours the job would run on the node. To facilitate that I created a rolling reservation with a lead of 24 hours. From reading the documentation, I added the following lines to moab.cfg and recycled the scheduler: #Rolling reservation for rokaslabs SRCFG[rokaslab] HOSTLIST=vmp001 ACCOUNTLIST=rokaslab GROUPLIST=*rokaslab SRCFG[rokaslab] FLAGS=BYNAME SRCFG[rokaslab] ROLLBACKOFFSET=24:00:00 SRCFG[rokaslab] PERIOD=INFINITY moab reports that the reservation was created. Showres shows rokaslab. 4732 As a test I had the user add the following lines to his pbs-script #PBS -l mem=10000mb #PBS -l advres:rokaslab.4732 checkjob reported that reservation rokaslab.4732 could not be found. Right enough, showres showed rokaslab.4733 So, I had the user resubmit with #PBS -l advres:rokaslab.4733 and checkjob reports that rokaslab.4733 could not be found. showres showed rokaslab.4734 I had the user resubmut this way: #PBS -l advres:rokaslab Now the job in question appears in the idle queue; it shows that the job has acquired a reservation for vmp001; however checkjob gives the following output: checkjob 552072 job 552072 AName: pbs_velvet_21_2runs_Agambiae_10gigs_2 State: Idle Creds: user:gibbonjg group:rokaslab account:rokaslab class:all WallTime: 00:00:00 of 4:00:00 SubmitTime: Mon Oct 27 10:44:10 (Time Queued Total: 1:00:08:26 Eligible: 1:00:08:09) Total Requested Tasks: 1 Req[0] TaskCount: 1 Partition: ALL Memory >= 5000M Disk >= 0 Swap >= 0 Opsys: --- Arch: --- Features: x86 Dedicated Resources Per Task: PROCS: 1 MEM: 10000M Reserved Nodes: (23:59:43 -> 1:03:59:43 Duration: 4:00:00) [vmp001:1] BypassCount: 293 Partition Mask: [base] Flags: ADVRES:rokaslab,RESTARTABLE Attr: checkpoint StartPriority: 2680 EstimatedStart: H: -86786 R: -518 B: 54214 PE: 11.01 Reservation '552072' (23:59:43 -> 1:03:59:43 Duration: 4:00:00) rejected for Features - rejected for CPU - rejected for Memory - rejected for State - NOTE: job cannot run in partition base (idle procs do not meet requirements : 0 of 1 procs found) idle procs: 420 feasible procs: 0 Node Rejection Summary: [Features: 214][CPU: 1][Memory: 121][State: 288] So, vmp001 is acquired, but I get the "NOTE: job cannot run in partition base (idle procs do not meet requirements : 0 of 1 procs found)" Moreover, showstart reports that the job will start in 24 hours.

Clearly, I am missing something, or the reservation is mis-configured, or I haven't given Torque sufficient info to report the available RAM, or all of these. I would really appreciate some help; the users are beginning to get impatient.

Games out this week include Minecraft: PlayStation Edition (PS3), which finally brings the magic of crafting, survival and amateur architectural design to PlayStation 3 owners; spooky survival horror sequel Slender: The Arrival (Xbox 360, PS3) proves that you can have too much of a good thing, its scares and mildly frustrating gameplay stretched to breaking point in an attempt to turn a free game into one you'd pay for; Killer Is Dead has had its PC release pushed back a week to 23 May – its messy combat, disjointed plot and mystifying sexism make it well worth ignoring. Due for release in November, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare will star Kevin Spacey as the messianic boss of a private military contractor, its near-future setting providing an excuse for invisibility cloaks, personal exoskeletons and hover bikes, in yet another simulated invasion of north America.

About the one I'm looking for...First of all in any relationship, you have to have respect for the other person.This goes hand in hand with a good relationship.I would like a person to be trustworthy and loyal. I like a man that is romantic and affectionate and has a good sense of humor.Being attractive and neat is good, too. One that takes good care of his health (non smoker) and is active.My ideal date would be to meet someone and immediately feel the chemistry and go to a small restaurant for a candle-lit dinner and talk, make a connection and get to know one another, while sipping our wine. What can I say, I an a romantic.
I would like to add that I am a Christian and I go to church and it would be a bonus if the one I was in relationship with was a Christian, too. It would be nice if we could take walks, and just have fun doing things together. Laugh a lot and enjoy life.

Roaf Inducted Into NFL Hall Of Fame
The broadcaster didn't call his name an awful lot but you certainly could tell when he was and wasn't on the field. Former Saint Willie Roaf was a force to be reckoned with whenever the New Orleans Saints offense was on the field.
Yesterday Willie Roaf, or Nasty, as he was nicknamed on the field became the latest member of the Hall of Fame to enter wearing Black and Gold. Rickey Jackson joined the Hall of Fame as a Saint in 2010.
Roaf joined the Saints as a draft pick that was acquired in a trade with the Detroit Lions for then Saints star Pat Swilling . Roaf played his college ball in Ruston at Louisiana Tech, he was presented into the hall by his father Clifton, who only missed one home game of Roaf's college and professional career.
Also not missing Roaf's induction was New Orleans Head Coach Sean Payton who was allowed the special contact with the team while he is serving a one year suspension from the league. Willie Roaf was one of six individuals enshrined in the Hall of Fame in Canton in yesterday's ceremony.
Tonight in the annual Hall of Fame football game, the traditional start the NFL season. Roaf's former team the New Orleans Saints will take on the Arizona Cardinals. That game can be heard on the radio at our sister station Sports Radio ESPN 1420 with pregame coverage beginning at 5pm.

Thanks for the link to the article.
However, I disagree with the Euro or US centrism
of an article that doesn't include a wider perspective:
how does that bear on the EA which the first people
from Central America, South America and Carribbean
America (outside of English influence) come up with?
We have ONE possible ancestor who may have been an
English or Scots slave and who probably was born circa
1730 if not before, ONE... She is eight generations
back in my father's mother's line (crisscrossing from
male to female lines three times over the centuries.
I don't see how that one female can give me 24% EA when
I was expecting none - rather around 25% to 30% NA
(Native American, not North!)
I suggest we need an international study that includes
many nations of non English background and especially
the Latin American countries who still hold most of
the first people of the hemisphere and their heavily
mixed breeds...
Still unsatisfied... elpadre

I had Botox injection of total 70 units at both my masseter muscles to reshape my face, but there was no significant result after half year passed and the doctor suggested me having a second try by increasing to 80 units (40 units per side). I wonder if this is a high unit? How many units do doctors usually use to reshape face? Please give me some ideas and thanks in advance for your advice.
Higher Botox Units for Face Reshaping?
Doctor Answers 2
Botox for face re-shaping?
Botox temporarily decreases movement in muscles into which it is injected. It really doesn't do much to specifically change facial shape. The lack of performance may have told you that already.
Botox for face re-shaping
If you did not see a significant result, you simply need more units - as much as 50 units per side, or more. Furthermore, the full effects are noticed after a series of injections for about a year so you will need to be patient. I hope the higher doses work better for you.
Good luck.

After an amazing 18 years, City Hall New York has closed.
For the past 18 years we have been blessed with the opportunity to feed hungry New Yorkers, and visitors to our great city.
City Hall Restaurant became a landmark in lower Manhattan. We reopened immediately after the tragedies of September 11, to feed our first responders, our partners in government, and our neighbors.
We managed every day to be an important part of the fabric of our community. We were a "hall for the City."
We have been honored to work with a team of poised professionals who were committed to the hospitality of our craft. Our responsibility was always to source sustainable products, and to partner with passionate farmers and artisans.
It has been an amazing chapter in our lives.
This chapter has ended.
We are ever so grateful for your love and support. We will always appreciate your generosity of spirit, and kindness.
We shed a tear, and raise our glass to say thank you. Nothing will ever replace our love of City Hall.
There will be a new chapter, Lore Wine & Spirits opening at Westfield World Trade Center this summer.
Chef Henry Meer and the City Hall team.

Weekend Project: Trophy Wine Corks For Champion Winos
If you're anything like us, your wine-drinking skills probably merit a trophy or two (examples: Most Improved Pallet and Best Balancing of Wine Glass On The Edge Of The Bathtub), so why not give yourself that trophy you deserve, in the form of a quirky DIY wine cork? If you still have your t-ball participation trophies floating around the attic, great, but if not, you'll be able to find cheap (and delightfully flamboyant) trophies at your local thrift store for a buck or two. The only other supplies needed are a fresh cork and superglue. Oh, and some Merlot to sip while you get crafty. [Country Living]

Ask Experts & Get Answers to Your Questions - ASAP
It's probably best not to talk about this at all. Just accept who've you told and ask him if he can just not tell anyone else. You can tell them you went on a short vacation or an educational seminar. Your husband is trying to prevent everyone knowing you had a facelift but knowing you lied is much worse and there is nothing wrong with a facelift.
I would just sit down and ask him if he could not talk about it or just tell people someone else. He may not realize what will happen once people realize that he lied.

When Mr. Carson notices that "things are changing," you can bet that means things are really changing.
Downton Abbey has just released this quick teaser to remind us all (as though we could forget!) that the next season, Season 5, is coming, and will likely be airing in the U.K. in the fall and in the U.S. in January 2015.
New cast members for Season 5 are Richard E. Grant, Anna Chancellor, and Rade Sherbedgia. Perhaps most importantly, Downton Abbey has said there will be no deaths this season.

Thanksgiving is almost upon us, potentially the most anticipated meal day of the American calendar year and I'm here to help you make those last minute decisions and drop a little wisdom on you to help you maximize your Turkey Day potential.
Lets start with the bird. Now this post is going up on Wednesday morning, and if you're reading it and you DO NOT have a thawed turkey in your possession, go fix that. Now.
The Bird
- Thawing: A good amount of you might be procurring frozen turkeys today, and if you think that it's going to thaw in your fridge in one day, you're gonna be all over Boston Market come Thursday. To thaw your frozen bird find a container big enough to hold it, then fill the container with cold water. Then let a steady, slow, stream of water run into the container for an hour or two. The bird should be thawed in no time.
- Brining: Turkey might be the ultimate meat to brine. Make sure you have a water tight container, with a lid, big enough to hold the bird. Start with a gallon of Ginger Ale. Stir in 1/2 c of sugar and 1/4 cup of salt (check to see if your turkey is already seasoned, look for the words "brine" or "injected" on the packaging, if so then cut the salt down to 1/8 cup). Add in some aromatics like fresh or dry Thyme, Rosemary or Sage. A few quartered onions, some celery, and a few smashed cloves of garlic will polish this brine up nicely.
- Storing: Can't fit the brined bird in your fridge? Check the temperature outside. Is the daily high 41 or below? If the answer is "yes" then the world is your cooler! Stash your contained turkey outside, up off the ground, making sure the container its in is completely water tight, as to keep the elements from being a bother.
- Frying: Frying your turkey? (I highly recommend you do if you can) Do it outside, in the grass. Not on the deck, not on the patio, on the driveway or in the grass. If things go wrong you'll thank me. Make sure the turkey is 100% thawed and dry. If you brined, marinated, or just recently thawed your bird take some paper towels and dry it off, inside and out. Loose excess moisture is what causes boil overs, have a thawed dry turkey will help prevent that.
- Frying Temp: If you brined your turkey youll want to fry the turkey "relatively" low. That's about 275 once the bird is in raise the heat to get to 325 (300 if you're dealing with a particularly large bird) and keep the oil temperature there until the bird is cooked. The sugars in the brine will cause the skin to burn if you hit to hot, to fast. If you didn't brine it or otherwise introduce sugar to the equation then start at the same 275F but bring the oil temp up to 375 (35o if you're dealing with a particularly large bird)
- Is It Done Yet: Go buy a decent meat thermometer. Cook till your get a reading of 1 60 from the thickest part of the breast.
- Resting: Once your turkey is cooked (whether you fried or baked it) Let it sit for about 20 minutes, lightly draped with a cover of foil (not to tight, you dont want to hold steam in)
- Keep your Mashed Potatoes simple, but good. Dont skimp on the butter, its Thanksgiving, Paula Deen that shit.
- Find a good stuffing recipe
- Errbody likes sweet potatoes
- Dont used canned corn, get fresh frozen corn and toss with melted butter, salt, and pepper. Lay it out on a sheet pan and roast in the oven for about 10 minutes at 350F. Mix in some caramelized Red Onions for good color and amazing flavor.
- Use French Onion Soup and a little heavy cream, instead of cream of mushroom, for a Green Bean Casserole (especially good if you're allergic to shrooms as I am)
- Knock together an easy homemade gravy. Melt two sticks of butter, whisk in 1/2 a cup of flour over low heat slowly. If the mixture starts to get to thick add a little olive oil to thin it back down. Cook the roux over low heat, stirring constantly. Slowly pour in 2 quarts of room temperature low sodium chicken stock whisking vigorously. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Add in one beef bullion cube, 1 tbsp of dry thyme, a tiny splash of Worcestershire sauce and a big pinch of black pepper (to taste, I like a lot of pepper). Simmer for 15 minutes. Adjust the thickness with more stock (to thin it out) or a little cornstarch mixed with water (to thicken it up) . Add 1/2 cup of heavy cream once its finished.
Hopefully some of these last minute tips have helped make your Turkey Day a good one. Eat well, and cook on.

On a home value of $230,000, it appears costly to add my name to the deed. Ideally our goal is to insure right of survivorship for each of us.
This may seem to be a simple question; however, it raises a number of issues concerning estate planning for both yourself and your husband. The house is most likely only one of your assets that you should consider with regard to a thoughtful estate plan.
If you only consider the home, you can convert it into community property by recording a deed to your husband and yourself, using the correct deed. This does not have to be very expensive. Additionally, you and your husband can execute a Community Property Agreement. Care should be taken that this agreement is prepared carefully and recorded appropriately. Additionally, the risks of signing a Community Property Agreement should be carefully considered.
I recommend that you and your husband consult with a lawyer experienced with estate planning and real estate issues.See question
I'm a psychotherapist and I'm getting mixed information about whether becoming an LLC really limits my liability. Limiting personal liability is often touted as a benefit of an LLC, but if I am the only member of the LLC and the (hypothetical/futu...
I generally agree with the other answers. Under Washington law, a professional limited liability company (PLLC) or professional services corporation (PS) will not limit your personal liability for acts of professional malpractice. You can reduce your personal liability by acquiring professional liability insurance (malpractice insurance).
If you are engaged in the practice of a profession that requires professional iicensure, then you must operate as a PLLC (if you choose to form and do business under a limited liability company).
I recommend that you consider forming an LLC to limit your personal exposure for other business debts and liabilities.See question
Quit Claim Deed was signed 3 months ago and notarized but not yet recorded. Owner died this week. Can it still be recorded and will it be an issue with the will when it is filed? Will not recorded yet and Probate not started.
Your first question is whether the quit claim deed can be recorded. I am assuming that the owner of the property is the one who is the "grantor" in the quit claim deed (that is, the one who is granting the deed and who is conveying an interest in the property, or clearing title to any interest in the property). Generally, the answer is yes, the deed can still be recorded; however, every deed recorded in the state of Washington must be accompanied by a Real Estate Excise Tax Affidavit. The Affidavit must be signed by the grantor or an agent on behalf of the grantor. That agent will be the personal representative under the terms of the will (if a valid will exists). If no valid will exists, then the agent will be an executor who qualifies to administer the deceased owner's estate under Washington's intestate succession laws. So, if no Real Estate Excise Tax Affidavit was prepared and signed by the grantor (owner), then the deed cannot be recorded at this time. One other point-in the event that the quit claim deed does not qualify for exemption under the applicable Washington real estate excise tax regulations, then interest and penalties may accrue if the deed was not delivered to the grantee (the recipient) at the time of execution of the deed (see below).
The second issue is whether the deed was actually delivered to the grantee. If it was not delivered prior to death (which will require an analysis of the facts surrounding the execution of the will), then technically the deed will not be valid to convey an interest in the real property. Whether there will be an issue when the will is admitted to probate depends upon the facts and circumstances surrounding the owner's estate and the provisions of the will.See question
I live in WA and am looking ti buy property in NJ. So I will collect rental income from NJ. I think I do but I just wanted to confirm. Thank you for your help
Have you made a determination that you need to own the rental property in a limited liability entity such as an LLC? I typically recommend to my clients that they do so, but an analysis of the costs and benefits should be performed first before going to the expense of forming the LLC.
If you want to own the rental property in an LLC, then you need to make a separate consideration as to whether the LLC should be formed in Washington or New Jersey. If it is formed in Washington, then you will most certainly need to register the entity in New Jersey as a foreign LLC (I'm not aware of a "foreign agent" registration; I believe you probably mean a foreign entity or foreign LLC registration). If formed in New Jersey, then no need to register the entity as a foreign entity. You should consult a New Jersey tax advisor to determine the tax consequences associated with owning rental income property in New Jersey.See question

I agree with the prior answers, and would like to add one more comment: If you are forming an entity (for example, a corporation or a limited liability company) to operate the business, and the name of the entity is not identical to the name of the business, then you will need to register a trade name before you can operate the business in Washington. I recommend that you research trade name registrations at the following website: http://bls.dor.wa.gov/addtradenames.aspx.See question
I do IT consulting for companies, some of them have been customers for years. The work is varied, and could not realistically be fully captured into a contract scope, outside of general language. Many of these relationships are based on a hand...
I agree with Ms. Jordan's answer and also would like to note the saying that an "ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" (and perhaps it is worth a ton of cure in the contract setting). I have numerous clients who have business relationships based on verbal agreements. While those agreements may very well be perfectly enforceable and may work out fine, those clients have certainly come to appreciate a written agreement (drafted with their interests in mind) which sets forth the rights and obligations as between the parties.
For example, in Washington state, the general rule in a contract breach situation is that each party bears their own legal fees and costs in the event of a dispute. However, the burden of paying attorneys' fees and costs can often be a significant challenge in the event that one of your clients chooses not to pay you over (for instance), if the amount in dispute is less than or equal to attorneys' fees and costs. In those cases, having the ability to enforce the right to have the other party (who has breached the agreement) pay your attorney fees and costs can be a significant point of negotiating leverage to resolve the dispute. This is called a "prevailing party" attorney's fee provision.
If your agreement is verbal, it may not have covered the payment of attorneys' fees and costs to the prevailing party, and if it does, then it may be very difficult or impossible to enforce.
The prevailing party attorney's fees and costs provision is but one of a number of defensive contract provisions that I recommend to my business and consulting clients. Defining in writing the scope of work is also a critical contract provision to include, which will help to prevent future disputes.See question
We are about 50% through on a $1M remodel. I want to be sure at the end, the sales tax I'm advancing is not just going into the contractor's pocket with the state coming after me for the tax. I could put the money in escrow or tell him I'll pay s...
Washington Department of Revenue regulations require that prime contractors collect retail sales tax from the landowner on the gross contract price (without deduction of costs incurred), except in the cases of speculative construction or other unique circumstances. Billing invoices must separately state the sales tax. If the contract requires retainage, sales tax must be computed before deducting such amounts. Your desired options at the end of your question are not legal options under Washington state law.
Does your construction contract address the issue of retainage or holdbacks? Your contract may also provide some other mechanisms for ensuring compliance. Additionally, you can find out some general information about the contractor's tax registration and status at http://www.dor.wa.gov/content/doingbusiness/registermybusiness/brd/.See question

With regard to your question concerning unpaid taxes, the answer will depend upon what type of taxes are owed. For some taxes, you may face personal liability as a responsible individual by reason of your role as a manager or member of your company.

I'm opening a bar/restaurant with two other partners. My concerns are drug and alcohol abuse and fraternization with the staff leading to trouble. Also one of the partners is responsible for the build of the bar and I worry he will not be able to ...
Although you ask about specific precautions concerning two certain areas, your question raise a number of issues that will need to be addressed by an attorney experienced with business operations, entity formation and management and employee issues. I see, at the outset, the following issues:
1. Ownership structure and management issues (for example, if you are owning this business through an entity, such as a limited liability company, I recommend that an operating agreement be executed by the owners to address the partnership/ownership issues)
2. Agreements between the entity/partnership and the partner/owner who is performing services related to the construction/build of the bar
3. Employee policies and manuals to address your concerns regarding alcohol/drug use and abuse and other employee issues
Your desired industry carries with it a somewhat high degree of risk compared to other industries (both from a financial and legal angle). You will need to carefully analyze the risk points and take appropriate steps to reduce the exposure. For example, it will be very important to obtain properly issued insurance coverage for the business. Additionally, the business may need to borrow money, or sign contracts, which may involve personal guaranties (another risk area for the owners).
I advise you consult with an attorney experienced in these areas to decide which specific precautions can be incorporated into your formation and operational documents, in order to get the business properly started.See question
I have a DIY Certificate of Formation for our LLC. Now we want to add 2 new members. Do we have to change our Certificate of Formation?
I agree with Mr. Michels concerning the amendment of your Certificate of Formation. Depending upon the information in your existing Certificate, you may need to amend (such as changing the management provision). However, your existing Certificate may contain other information that may need to be changed. Finally, I recommend to my clients that an Operating Agreement is very important to have in place between multiple members of a limited liability company. You should consult an attorney experienced with limited liability companies to assess changes that may be necessary as well as other issues that may need to be addressed with new members being admitted to the LLC.See question

EDITORIAL >>Satire hits target
Both the John McCain and Barack Obama campaigns condemned the magazine for the cover and there were calls for a nationwide boycott of the magazine and its advertisers. The cover, which was typical of thousands of satirical cartoons that have draped the great magazines front since its inception in the 1920s, portrayed Sen. Obama and his wife as Middle Eastern terrorists.
Many people, though probably few of the magazines sophisticated clientele, thought it an insult of the likely next president of the United States and his wife and believed that it was designed to harm his candidacy. It may indeed have that effect, but if the artist and the magazine had a political motive at all it was almost certainly exactly the opposite. The cover satirized the right-wing campaign to demonize the couple as secret radical Muslims bent upon harming the country.
Satire is The New Yorkers stock in trade, and its covers and interior cartoons have been lampooning the social order and political puffery with such regularity that it is dull and almost conformist. The July 21 cover is a pictorial counterpart to any of a score of Stephen Colbert shows on the Comedy Channel. Colberts schtick is to pretend that he embraces even the most absurd right-wing dogma as he tears into authors and liberal intellects who consent to come on the show and engage in fierce tongue-in-cheek combat with him. But no one calls for Colbert to be banished for the deadpan bigotry that falls from his lips.
The studio audience howls. Everyone there and presumably the national audience understand the real message.
New Yorker readers will have the same appreciation for the ridiculous. The controversy spreads the cover to a much wider and less discerning audience, some of whom may view it as confirmation of the dastardly rumors spread by political enemies of the Democratic nominee for president. But satire always carries such risks. There no doubt were people who believed that Jonathan Swift, whose pamphlet A Modest Proposal was published in 1729, advocated that poor Irish families boil their year-old babies for food. Three hundred years should not have left us less cosmopolitan.

text: Share This As an aspiring secondary education history teacher during his senior year at Wheaton College, Dave Teune '74 received a last-minute reassignment. Originally scheduled to be a student teacher at Wheaton Central High School, he was instead put in charge of a class of seventh-graders at Monroe Middle School. "I like to say it was seventh grade that sent me straight to law school," says Dave, who quickly became disillusioned when he discovered that most of the 12-year-olds under his tutelage didn't share his passion for knowledge. So Dave decided to change career paths. He took the Law School Admission Test and went on to study law the following fall. Dave graduated with a J.D. from Chicago's John Marshall Law School in 1977 and earned his LL.M. in taxation from I.I.T. Chicago-Kent College of Law in 2008. After practicing law in Chicago and Northbrook, Illinois, for five years, Dave returned to Wheaton College in 1982 as planned giving counsel. Though he describes himself and his Wheaton friends as "a cynical bunch, like many other college students in the early seventies," he says. "It was the ethos of Wheaton—the intellectual, Christian environment—that made it an attractive place to return to." In 1983, he transitioned to the College's Investment and Trust Department as associate investment manager. He became investment manager in 1984 and served as legal counsel from 1992 to 1994. In 1994, Dave returned to the fundraising arena as director of Wheaton's Gift Planning Services. In 2000, he also assumed the roles of director, general counsel, and secretary for the Wheaton College Trust Company. As director of Gift Planning Services since 1994, Dave has been instrumental in expanding Wheaton's historically robust planned giving program, serving in both administrative and fundraising capacities. He has proven to be a highly regarded resource to donors, administrators, and fundraising staff with a singular gift for creatively coaching them through complex gift and estate planning strategies. Law has indeed proven to be a good fit for Dave. Lenore Callahan, who serves as office coordinator in Gift Planning Services and has worked with Dave since 1997, says he seems content when ensconced in his office, surrounded by piles of law books. Over the years, Dave has appreciated the opportunity to see Wheaton's commitment to furthering Christ's Kingdom lived out through the lives of students, alumni, parents, and friends. He feels privileged, for example, to have witnessed Wheaton's mission at work within the life of his own daughter, Molly Teune Denton '09. "I could see the growth in my daughter's faith and intellectual development," he says. "I could appreciate the incredible young women around her, who will be her lifelong friends—young women whose faith puts mine to shame." Similarly, Dave enjoys interacting with Wheaton alumni and friends. "Contact with our donors really refreshes me," he says. "They're interested in the same things I'm interested in—integrating faith and learning, being a witness for Christ. It's very inspiring." Recently, for example, he met with a California couple who, after discussing supporting Wheaton via the eventual sale of their rental building, spent an equal amount of time in animated dialogue about ways to apply Christian apologetics to contemporary culture. This kind of interaction has encouraged Dave in his work at Wheaton. It has also helped him get through times of personal struggle when he found himself questioning his place at the College or his effectiveness in his role. "The freshness of these relationships has helped reignite my enthusiasm at low points," he says. Dr. R. Mark Dillon, vice president for advancement and alumni relations, has worked with Dave since arriving at Wheaton in 1994. He appreciates—and knows that Wheaton's donors also appreciate— Dave's uncompromising integrity and commitment to excellence. "Fundamentally, those who want to give to Wheaton know that Dave is looking out for their best interests," says Mark. "They have a deep level of trust in his knowledge base and integrity." Lenore Callahan agrees. "Dave always works hard to find the best option for the individual. He is never willing to separate the gift from the giver," she says. Trustworthy, knowledgeable, and humble—these are a few of the words that colleagues and donors consistently use to describe Dave. "Dave's humble spirit is apparent to all who have worked with him," says Dr. David Johnston '65, who worked at Wheaton from 1977 to 2009, most recently as senior vice president for finance. "He has worked mostly behind the scenes, where he has not sought personal recognition for his significant accomplishments." Brian Oxley '73, M.A. '75, an entrepreneur, businessman, and Wheaton donor since 1997, says Dave isn't the stereotypical lawyer. "He is patient, understanding, humble. He's a great sounding board who always listens. And that's remarkable, because I think I've given him more Wheaton College lectures than any professor there." Like Brian, Dr. Barrett Anderson '50, an orthodontist who has sought out Dave's assistance with a number of complex sales and charitable trust donations over the years, appreciates Dave's competence and personable approach. "Dave is very bright, very trustworthy," says Barrett. "Over the past 15 years, my wife, Regis, and I have felt we were working in total harmony and trust with him; we have felt like we've had major-league-level advice at every point. Wheaton has a gem in Dave Teune. Clearly, his work for Wheaton is his ministry for the Lord." An instrument of Christian ministry, Dave's work has even served as a vehicle of matrimony. In 1979, Lenore Callahan's mother, Ruth Carlson, employed Dave via a local law firm after her husband's death that year. She liked him so much that she engineered a plan to introduce Dave to Mary Wilterdink, a fellow choir member. Ruth convinced Mary, who lived in the same apartment complex as Dave, to deliver him a plate of homemade cookies. Dave jokes that Mary brought the cookies by on Christmas Eve, hoping that he wouldn't be home. But he was indeed home, and the two were married in 1982. In addition to Molly '09, they are parents to an adult son, Jonathan. As for Dave's career at Wheaton, his three-decades-long investment promises to leave a lasting legacy. "Dave has a strong sense of Wheaton's key place in today's culture," says Mark Dillon. "He thinks holistically about the mission of Wheaton College. Because of his diligence and care for hundreds of alumni and others, Dave's impact will be felt at Wheaton College for many years to come." O God with Us, Come! >

Explore a new resource that looks at the campaigning techniques of the suffragists and suffragettes.
The Suffragists
In 1866, a group of women organised a petition that demanded that women should have the same political rights as men. The women took their petition to Henry Fawcett and John Stuart Mill, two MPs who supported universal suffrage. Mill added an amendment to the Reform Act that would give women the same political rights as men. The amendment was defeated by 196 votes to 73.
In the wake of this defeat the London Society for Women's Suffrage was formed. Similar Women's Suffrage groups were formed all over Britain. In 1897, seventeen of these individual groups joined together to form the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (NUWSS).
The NUWSS adopted a peaceful and non-confrontational approach. Members believed that success could be gained by argument and education. The organisation tried to raise its profile peacefully with posters, leaflets, calendars and public meetings.
Steps towards equal rights came with the Married Woman's Property Acts of 1870, 1882, and 1884 (amended again in 1925). These enabled women to keep their property and money after marriage, where previously it was the automatic property of their husbands.
The denial of equal voting rights for women was supported by Queen Victoria who, in 1870 wrote, 'Let women be what God intended, a helpmate for man, but with totally different duties and vocations'.

Cartagena Sauvignon Blanc 2010
Sauvignon Blanc from Chile
Winemaker's Notes
Pale straw. Bright fresh and lifted. Notes of melon and kiwi. Clean and eminently drinkable. Complex with citric characters and a touch of ulmo honey. Refined with an impeccable pedigree. Seafood, salads and goat cheese
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Greenish-yellow. High-pitched bouquet evokes lime zest, agave, white pepper and a hint of habanero. Dry, incisive citrus and orchard fruit flavors show an emphatically spicy character and pick up a sweet melon nuance on the back half. Offers an intriguing blend of vivacity and richness and finishes with a bright note of lime oil. Excellent Chilean sauvignon blanc. "
Cartagena Winery
Cartagena is a family-owned winery located in Lo Abarca, a sub-appellation of the San Antonio Valley, only 4 km. from the coast. It is currently Chile's closest vineyard to the Pacific Ocean and is also home to some of the country's steepest sites under vine. View all Cartagena Wines
About Chile(CHEE-lay)Long and thin, Chile has a lot of land north to south. The wine region here is a series of districts based near Santiago. The vineyards are protected by the Pacific on the west and the Andes mountains on the east. This could help explain why the climate changes more from east to west than north to south – also why the country has remained phylloxera free. Quite a few wineries in Chile were founded by large French wine companies. Seeing the potential of the country, vineyards were bought and planted by these French folks and the results tell of a smart investment. Some of these wineries include: Los Vascos, Casa Lapostolle and Cousino Macul. And while the inspiration may have been French, but the wines here are quite Chilean.
Photo of the sun break following morning fog over the vineyards of Veramonte Winery (located in the Casablanca Valley)
Notable FactsThe main regions of Chile include Maipo (pronounced MY-poh), known for reds like Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenere; Casablanca Valley, a region producing delicious Sauvignon Blanc, as well as other whites & some reds; Colchaugua, an inland district creating amazing red wines from Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, particularly in the Apalta sub-region; and Rapel Valley, settled right under Maipo and producing the same red varietals. A couple of smaller regions to watch include Limari and Elqui, two valleys further north, producing some delicious cool-climate Chardonnay and Bio Bio, an area further south, which is also focused on cool-climate varieties. Chilean wines are growing in exports and more consumers are enjoying the delicious values coming from the country. Red wines of the region, though they cannot be generalized, make the whole gamut of wine quality – quaffable to collectible. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot & Carmenere are the main players, though Syrah is also making a splash. Some of the best reds are blends of the above varieties. As for whites, Sauvignon Blanc is typically crisp, herbal and racy, while Chardonnay is richer in style with full-bodied texture and tropical fruit flavors.

My son was fortunate to work with Karen whose unique blend of exceptional talent, heartfelt compassion and tireless commitment is a rare treasure to find. While the initial goal was to enhance communication and engagement in a relaxed environment, we also recognized the vital role that artistic expression was assuming in the develop of my son's personal growth and a sense of self. Karen is magical in the way in which she nutures the individual and strengthens self-esteem. We sincerely wish that AFH will be able to expand their reach so others may also benefit.
Karen works with both my children. They love the program, have flourished in it, and have healthier self-esteems because of it. Wonderful program that enriches the spirit.
I had never heard of this truely amazing program until a friend mentioned it. My child has been involved with Arts For Healing for over a year and loves every minute of it. Programs like this are not visible but need to be. I wish the insurance companies could see the benefits of programs like this. Be it music or art my child can't wait for the next visit. The staff are very kind and helpful and make you feel welcome. Thank you Arts For Healing!
My son was diagnosed with being on the Autism Spectrum a few years ago. Arts for Healing is the best non profit organizaion that I could have ever been introduced to. The staff is extremly helpful and understanding to his needs. His love for music has grown so much since he's been going there. He even asked to join the school band this year. Mr. Gabriel is very helpful and patient. Not only did he teach my son to play the piano, but now he is also interested in playing the drums. All of these hidden talents would not have been exposed without his help. I am grateful to Arts for Healing.
My adult son began taking piano lessons with Karen several years ago. She managed to unlock a hidden potential and believed that this was possible. Arts for Healing continues to be an oasis for him and he looks forward to his weekly sessions with Karen. With each piano session he is encouraged and pushed a little harder and he continues to make progress.
My daughter was experiencing bullying at her middle school and Arts for Healing made her feel loved and respected her art work. They made her feel like she was a person again and that she had the right to be in school. I thank them for their work.
This fantastic group has served my two sons with autism for the past 5-6 years. Their office is always full of kids being helped in different ways -- drama, art, music -- always fun, and always at their level. One son has gone beyond music therapy to learning to play music -- what a gift he's been given, that would never have been possible in traditional music lessons!
This program was an exceptional experience for my son Max. He is 6 years old and autistic. The connection with music is huge to him, and it gives him great pleasure to be creative and learn what the different musical instruments sound like. The individuals and therapists that work with Arts for Healing are wonderful without exception. it is fortunate for children like my son Max that such special people exist in the world.
My son Graham looks forward every weekend to see Billy and have his music therapy class. Graham is nineteen years and non-verbal and developmentally delayed. This experience has allowed him to express himself through his voice and through his instruments. He loves the one on one interaction and has expectations that are fufilled each week! I can't say enough about the professionalism amongst the whole staff. We look forward to a LONG relationship with this organization...

5 of the Worst Halloween Costumes This Year
It's Halloween costume time! And since you're clearly going to procrastinate, you'll probably find yourself getting a crappy store-bought costume at the last minute, but please AVOID THESE.
Here's a list of the five worst Halloween costumes we've seen so far this year.
1. Cry Baby Adult Costume
This costume features an oversized tan polyester bodysuit with a large white diaper and a bib that says "Cry Baby." Even someone with a diaper fetish would find this thing hideous.
2. Sexy Oscar the Grouch
Last year "Sesame Street" released a line of sexier adult costumes. Some, like Elmo and Cookie Monster, might be okay. But putting a garbage can lid on your head and wearing a skirt with a garbage can print is not.
3. Big Foot
This isn't Bigfoot, the half-man, half-ape. This is a costume where you're wearing a giant foot. With hairy toes. And it costs $50.
4. The Sun
This costume is just lazy. Basically it's a big yellow felt circle with a few points sticking out. And it costs $40.
5. A Woman's Jumpsuit That Says "Halloween"
It's not even a costume. It's a cheap-looking full-body jumpsuit that inexplicably has the word "Halloween" printed near the left shoulder.

AP's Bauer, Obsessed With 'Polarizing' Law, Actually Understates the Pension Hit Wis. Public Employees Are Taking
Gosh, I would have thought that someone in Wisconsin's or America's labor movement would have caught Scott Bauer's clear June 15 understatement of the net pay hit many unionized public sector workers in the Badger State will be taking as a result of 2011 Wisconsin Act 10, commonly known as the "Budget Repair Bill," once the law's provisions become effective on July 1. That error is in the following sentence from Bauer's report ("New lawsuit filed against Wisconsin union law"):
The law also requires workers to pay 12 percent of their health insurance costs and 5.8 percent of their pension costs, which amount to an 8 percent pay cut on average.
The AP reporter apparently spent time which should have gone towards getting the facts right to ensuring, as he did in a June 14 story (covered at NewsBusters; at BizzyBlog), that the law was described as "polarizing" as often as possible. Bauer's frequent use of the P-word also seemingly distracted union supporters who read or heard portions of Bauer's report from noticing the error I will explain shortly.
As shown below, Scott's magic word was found in his write-up and in two of his audio teases:
Geez, Scott, we get your blatantly biased point.
Bauer's reporting error is in stating that public sector employees will now pay "5.8 percent of their pension costs." What's really the case is that they will now pay "5.8% of their gross pay" into the State of Wisconsin Retirement System.
That's a big difference. As Bauer presented it, assuming for the moment that employer pension costs average the 18% of pay noted here (see Page 2 of the linked document), that would only be 0.87% of gross pay (.058 x .15), roughly 5% of gross pay less than actual (5.8% minus 0.87% is 4.93%).
While we're at it, Bauer description of Wisconsin Act 10's impact in the quote above as "an 8% pay cut on average" is also incorrect. It's not a pay cut at all, as no one's salary is going to change as a direct result of the law. Act 10's provisions will cause "an 8% reduction in net pay" (compared to gross pay), which is nowhere near the same thing.
Scott Bauer should spend a bit more time working on accuracy and precision and a bit less time inserting "polarizing" words into his reports.

GRAINS Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) communication manager, Kylie Dunstan, recently spoke to Farm Weekly grains writer BOBBIE HINKLEY after a number of WA wheat growers expressed their concerns about the 0.99 per cent Federal Research Levy.
Some growers told Farm Weekly that while an extensive amount of publicity had recently been given to the 22 cent a tonne Wheat Export Australia (WEA) grower levy and the two per cent wool tax, by far the biggest levy expense on a large number of WA farm businesses was the 0.99pc Federal Research Levy compulsorily acquired on a grower's gross grain income.
Seven grain and seed commodities currently have a levy and or export charge in Australia. These included coarse grains, cotton, grain legumes, oilseeds, pasture seeds, rice and wheat.
According to the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry the charges provide funding for research and development, plant health, residue testing and WEA programs for the grains industry.
Bobbie Hinkley (BH): The GRDC is currently contributing to 900 research projects and employing 2500 people. Some growers would argue that those figures are extreme. Is GRDC's grower levy-funded spending being spread too thinly to be able to achieve any industry-changing or tangible kind of benefit for our State's grain growers?
Kylie Dunstan (KD): GRDC receives a 0.99 per cent levy from grain growers. GRDC reports comprehensively to all stakeholders in relation to how these funds are invested to maximise returns to Australian grain growers and the broader community.
Individual growers can make an assessment of the organisation's performance and the return they get on their investment.
Recently 1200 grain growers throughout Australian were surveyed and the attitude towards paying the levy is highlighted (see graph on opposite page).
The GRDC also aims to act as a catalyst in growing and leveraging total grains R&D investment in Australia.
For example, for every dollar the GRDC invested in the Future Farm Industries program, it leveraged $2.6 from research partners.
Every dollar the GRDC invested in the Partners in Grain program, it leveraged $1.4 from research partners.
And for every dollar the GRDC invested in the Mungbean Breeding program, it leveraged $1.7 from research partners.
The majority of the GRDC's investment attracts contributions from either the research partner contracted or other agencies.
The most common sources of leverage are universities, state government departments and CSIRO. Independent economic assessment is also conducted on GRDC's investment portfolio.
In 2010/11 the GRDC undertook impact assessment studies of eight clusters of projects as part of the core business process to evaluate the impact of its R&D and report to stakeholders.
The studies assessed the economic, social and environmental benefits arising from GRDC investments. They were undertaken through an independent consultant in accordance with the guidelines developed by the Council of Rural Research and Development Corporation Chairs.
The previous GRDC investment strategy has delivered great benefits to Australian grain growers.
However in the new strategic direction GRDC aims to tighten the portfolio by providing increased investment in a more focused way.
This will see some consolidation in the number of individual projects with a shift to investment strategies focused in six key areas: meeting market requirements, improving crop yield, protecting your crop, improving your farm resource base, profitable farming systems and building skills and capacity.
BH: A quick glance at the GRDC grower report seems to show that the wheat levy contributes the most money and receives the least funding for research. WA as a contributor and receiver also seems to be short changed. What's the reason for this?
KD: The information provided in the grower report is a high level representation of how the investment portfolio is split across "cross commodity" and also by region.
By far GRDC's largest investment is in cross commodity research which looks at the farming system as a whole, like crop protection and herbicide resistance, soils and other areas critical to the profitability of the whole farming system.
A considerable proportion of this cross commodity investment benefits wheat production however is attributed to farming systems research more broadly.
Having said that GRDC's direct investment specifically in wheat has also declined due to dis-investment from wheat breeding as this is being done by the commercial sector.
GRDC invests in pre-breeding and quality for wheat specifically. In terms of investment by region, the pie charts included in the grower report show GRDC's investment in each region with research partners, not necessarily where the benefit may be had.
The GRDC is also strongly committed to and supportive of the National Grains RD&E Strategy.
RD&E delivery will have national research which can be done anywhere provided it's delivered in the relevant regions, regional delivery and local extension as well as international collaboration. GRDC invests where the best research capacity exists. There is a higher concentration of research organisations on the east coast of Australia than the west coast.
GRDC invests with the research organisations that have the skills and expertise to do the work regardless of where they are located to get the best return for Australian grain growers, for example work done in institutions like CSIRO, Waite campus, ACPFG, the Australian Cereal Rust Control Program may be undertaken in regions other than in the west but the benefits directly contribute to the western region and the results are made broadly available.
Last week GRDC also announced a major investment in AEGIC based in WA with $20m direct contribution over five years.
BH: What major challenges do WA grain growers face in the deregulated market and how do growers make the most of the opportunities presented to them via the GRDC's grower levy-funded investment?
KD: The Australian grains industry has undergone a fundamental change with the deregulation of wheat marketing. The way growers and grain marketers operate in the deregulated environment is completely different. Australian grain growers need to be positioned to take advantage of the benefits as well as mitigating the potential negative impacts of deregulation.
The globalisation of the supply chain brings a big change. Previously the industry was controlled by Australian-owned grower corporations.
Now the increased participation of large multi-nationals will bring increased competition, different demands as well as new skills, expertise and opportunities to the industry.
GRDC's mandate is quite specific and focused on R&D.
GRDC Meeting market requirements theme is focused on producing grain customers wants with quality attributes.
There are a range of activities that specifically support this theme including investments in wheat classification through Wheat Quality Australia and in malt and barley accreditation through Barley Australia, a number of specific investments that will secure the long-term competitiveness of Australian growers in relation to grain quality and a $20M investment in the Australian Export Grains Innovation Centre located in WA.
BH: What's your take on WA growers' attitude to paying the levy?
KD: GRDC is committed to ensuring that the levy investment growers make is the best possible investment they can make. Many farmers have seen the results RD&E has delivered to them on their farm in their lifetime.
GRDC needs to continue to demonstrate and deliver benefits of its investment on farm and is committed to doing that.
The fact that there is such strong support among growers to pay the GRDC levy is a real tribute to research, development and extension undertaken in Australia.

Michelle Singletary's Color of Money
It used to be that many folks didn't worry when money got tight because the minimum payments on their credit cards were so low.
If you only had to pay as little as 2 percent of what you owed, you might not make much of a dent in your principal but you could at least keep current.
That was then. This is now.
Now many credit card users, suffering from job losses or other effects of the recession, can't even make the minimum payment on their card -- or cards -- pushing credit delinquencies to all-time highs, according to the Fitch Credit Card Index, which measures the percentage of credit card receivables that are reported more than 60 days past due.
The delinquency index has increased 36 percent in the past six months.
"We are in uncharted territory for credit card losses," said Michael Dean, a managing director for Fitch Ratings.
Credit card charge-offs, or uncollectible debt, surged to 8.82 percent in February, a 20-year high, according to the latest report by Moody's Credit Card Index.
For years, legitimate nonprofit credit-counseling agencies have helped people negotiate repayment plans. Creditors have offered concessions including waiving late and over-the-limit fees and reducing interest rates.
The problem is that, for a growing number of consumers who are so deep in debt and don't earn enough, traditional creditor concessions aren't sufficient to help them qualify for the typical repayment plan.
Last year, an estimated 405,000 who were counseled by member agencies with the National Foundation for Credit Counseling or the Association of Independent Consumer Credit Counseling Agencies were turned down for repayment plans, according to Gail Cunningham, vice president of public relations for NFCC.
In an effort to help many families who want to honor their consumer debt obligations, the NFCC has struck a deal with the nation's top 10 credit card issuers to roll out two special debt repayment plans.
"We want to help consumers pay back their debts and avoid bankruptcy," said Susan C. Keating, president and chief executive of NFCC.

Invitation to a Public Meeting during the Site Visit of the School of Audiology by the Council on Academic Accreditation (CAA) in Audiology and Speech‐Language Pathology.
Monday, April 3, 2017; 4:30 pm – 6:00 pm
Pacific University ‐ Hillsboro Campus
711 SE Baseline Street, Intermodal Transit Facility, Room 132, Hillsboro, OR 97123
Attendees will have the opportunity to meet with members of the accreditation site visit team to provide personal observations and experiences related to the doctoral program's compliance with the CAA's accreditation standards.
Program Accreditation Status
The doctoral AuD program in audiology at Pacific University is a Candidate for Accreditation by the Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA) of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, 2200 Research Boulevard #310, Rockville, Maryland 20850, 800-498-2071 FREE or 301-296-5700. Candidacy is a "pre-accreditation" status with the CAA, awarded to developing or emerging programs for a maximum period of five years.
University Accreditation Status
Pacific University is accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU).
Accreditation FAQs
(1) What is CAA candidacy accreditation?
The CAA's candidacy model allows new programs to come into compliance with the CAA Standards for Accreditation in a logical sequence while being closely monitored by the CAA. Programs with candidacy status must submit annual progress reports to demonstrate continued and progressive compliance with the standards, including providing appropriate supporting documentation. Programs with candidacy accreditation may enroll and graduate students.
(2) When will the program apply for full CAA accreditation?
New programs in candidacy status can apply for full accreditation after they graduate their first cohort. We graduated our inaugural cohort on 8/8/15 and will be submitting our application for full accreditation on 8/1/16. (August 1 is our program's annual deadline for accreditation reports and applications). We have an accreditation site visit planned for April 3 & 4, 2017 and then learn that summer if our program has been awarded full accreditation.
(3) How can I get more information about the CAA and its accreditation standards?
More information on the CAA and its accreditation standards may be obtained by:
- Accessing the documents on the CAA's website
- Contacting the CAA office at ASHA's headquarters: 2200 Research Blvd, #310, Rockville, MD 20850
- Calling ASHA's Action Center: 800-498-2071 FREE
(4) Why did Pacific University choose CAA accreditation instead of ACAE accreditation?
The Oregon Administrative Rules for audiology licensure stipulate that the accrediting organization that approves graduate programs is the Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA) of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. At this time, the Accreditation Commission for Audiology Education (ACAE) is not recognized in the Oregon Administrative Rules.
(5) Can I get licensed as an audiologist if I graduate from a program with candidacy accreditation?
We do not know of any issues with licensure based on our program's candidacy accreditation status. Being totally realistic, it's possible that, during the program, a particular clinical site or a particular scholarship requirement may mandate that a student is attending a program with full accreditation but, so far, we have found those situations to be infrequent. It's also possible that a state licensing board, an employer, or a credentialing entity may question the program's candidacy accreditation status. The AuD degree that is awarded by Pacific University, however, is a valid degree and our new graduates have successfully obtained professional licensure and employment as audiologists. Any applicant for licensure needs to take responsibility, of course, to be aware of and meet all of the licensure requirements (e.g., passing score on the national exam, satisfactory background check, etc.) of an individual state in which they would like to practice.
(6) What is the procedure for submitting a complaint to the CAA about a program?
Per the CAA, a complaint may be submitted to the CAA by any student, instructional staff member, speech-language pathologist, audiologist, and/or member of the public. Complaints must:
- Be against an accredited graduate education program or program in candidacy status in audiology and/or speech language pathology;
- Relate to the Standards for Accreditation of Entry-Level Graduate Education Programs in Audiology and Speech Language Pathology;
- Clearly describe the specific nature of the conduct being complained about, which must have occurred at least in part within five years of the date the complaint is filed, describe the relationship of the complaint to the accreditation standards, and provide supporting data for the charge;
- Include verification, if the complaint is from a student or faculty/instructional staff member, that the complainant exhausted all pertinent institutional grievance and review mechanisms before submitting a complaint to the CAA;
- Include the complainant's name, address, and telephone contact information and the complainant's relationship to the program in order for the Accreditation Office staff to verify the source of the information; and
- Be signed and submitted in writing via U.S. mail, overnight courier, or hand-delivery to the following address: Chair, Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology, American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, 2200 Research Boulevard, #310, Rockville, MD 20850.

One New Orleans restaurant is serving up truly authentic local cuisine.
Whatever you do, don't call it Cajun. Chef-owner David Guas's month-old Bayou Bakery, Coffee Bar & Eatery (lunch for two $40) may serve pillowy beignets and slow-cooked jambalaya, but its soul-satisfying offerings (braised-pork-shoulder sausage infused with cayenne, anyone?) plumb the depths of Louisiana's complex cuisine. "New Orleans is another country—and it goes way beyond Cajun or Creole," says Guas. "With Bayou, I'm saying, 'This is what we really eat in my hometown. I hope you enjoy it.'" We can't imagine you won't.
