Health Savings Accounts
Here's the basic idea: Instead of purchasing traditional health insurance through one's employer, an employee purchases a high-deductible health plan (usually $1000 deductible for a single employee) through his employer. Because of the high deductible, such a plan involves a smaller monthly cost to the employee. This savings is then "passed through" before taxes to the employee's very own HSA. Each year, the employee can deposit up to the amount of his deductible ($1000 in the above example). So, for example, if our employee needs health care services costing less than his $1000, he may pay those amounts out of his pre-tax HSA dollars. Additionally, it should be noted that HSA funds can be spent on any legitimate medical expense, this would even include things like Tylenol or Nyquil. If our employee really gets sick and uses up his entire $1000 deductible, then the high deductible health insurance plan takes over. But the beauty of the HSA is that if our employee remains healthy and doesn't incur many medical expenses, any amount in his HSA after the end of the year remains his and may continue to grow.
An HSA, like an IRA, is merely a tax umbrella, and an employee's HSA funds can be stored in different types of accounts (such as money markets, bonds, or stock index funds). Accordingly, if a healthy 25-year old employee invests his HSA money in a high growth stock index fund, after thirty or forty years, his HSA account will likely have a substantial sum of money in it after growing for so long in a tax deferred account. In retirement, the HSA is treated just like an IRA, so if our employee wants to spend it on non-health care expenses, he will finally pay taxes on the money. HSA's, also like IRA's, are transferable to the account owner's beneficiaries upon death.
Now that I've whet your appetite, go read more on HSA's here at the U.S. Treasury Website. And if you're still not convinced, feel free to keep throwing your money away on high monthly premium health care plans. In 40 years, when my HSA is bursting with money, I'll try not rub it in.
Also, see this article at NRO. The following paragraph is what initially prompted this post:
Full tax deductibility of health-care spending would accelerate the use of Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), which are probably the best thing to happen to health care in a generation. Created by both President Bush and the Republican-led Congress, these accounts allow individuals to create tax-free nest eggs to cover routine out-of-pocket medical costs. Were HSAs to be used more commonly, the same dynamic that determines how most people spend their money  trying to obtain the highest quality at the lowest price  would finally come to American health care. That would reward the best doctors and hospitals, and squeeze inefficiency out of the system.

I met Judge Neilson several times during her visits to the law school, often to lend her time and talent as a moot court judge. She was a lady in every sense, and clearly enjoyed interacting with the newest members of her profession. The legal community -- not to mention the community as a whole -- was bettered by her time here on earth.
May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

Sticking it to The Rich
Donald Luskin of National Review Online, however, explains that the actual effect of the capital gains tax cut was an increase in capital gains revenue. In other words, despite a reduction in the rate of taxation on "the rich," "the rich" ended up paying more overall in capital gains taxes.
To appreciate this story, we have to go back in time to January 2003, before the tax cut was enacted. Table 3-5 on page 60 in CBO's Budget and Economic Outlook published in 2003 estimated that capital-gains tax liabilities would be $60 billion in 2004 and $65 billion in 2005, for a two-year total of $125 billion.
Now let's move forward a year, to January 2004, after the capital-gains tax cut had been enacted. Table 4-4 on page 82 in CBO's Budget and Economic Outlook of that year shows that the estimates for capital-gains tax liabilities had been lowered to $46 billion in 2004 and $52 billion in 2005, for a two-year total of $98 billion. Compare the original $125 billion total to the new $98 billion total, and we can infer that CBO was forecasting that the tax cut would cost the government $27 billion in revenues.
Those are the estimates. Now let's see how things really turned out. Take a look at Table 4-4 on page 92 of the Budget and Economic Outlook released this week. You'll see that actual liabilities from capital-gains taxes were $71 billion in 2004, and $80 billion in 2005, for a two-year total of $151 billion. So let's do the math one more time: Subtract the originally estimated two-year liability of $125 billion from the actual liability of $151 billion, and you get a $26 billion upside surprise for the government. Yes, instead of costing the government $27 billion in revenues, the tax cuts actually earned the government $26 billion extra.
CBO's estimate of the "cost" of the tax cut was virtually 180 degrees wrong. The Laffer curve lives!

A Dubious Prominence: Murray on Bush and the Decline of the Right
The pride of place George W. enjoys among many of my colleagues on the Right is frankly stunning, for he is not just tolerated or grudgingly accepted as the (slightly) better of two bad choices; on the contrary, Bush is readily identified with and enthusiastically endorsed. This raises some alarming issues: is the Right dead? Does it have no principles? Does it not realize when those principles are violated? Is it really all about hating the Democrats after all (a worthwhile endeavor to be sure, were it not for the fact that the Republicans increasingly resemble their putative enemies)?
Judging from his recent contribution to NR, Charles Murray must be similarly bewildered. The following excerpt appeared in the 50th anniversary issue, in the very the heart of what has become the "Courtier Right" (I imagine only someone with Murray's longstanding credentials could have pulled it off):
"From the founding of Nationa Review—an opening date that I nominate without fear or favor—through the presidency of Ronald Reagan, the intellectual vigor of the [conservative vision] grew. Then, during the 1990s, we discovered how much the vigor of the [conservative vision] depended on competition. With the Left intellectually moribund, politicians of the Right began to take the easy way out. It is understandable, because advocating the policies of limited government is psychologically uncomfortable. It requires a politician to say he wants to do things that will cause pain—cut benefits for young women with babies, scrub regulations that putatively protect the environment, or end affirmative action… In the aftermath of the Reagan ascendancy, when running and winning as a Republican became so much easier, we got more and more Republicans who wanted to be nice guys. George W. Bush is their leader. And so we have watched a Republican-controlled government take a giant step toward federalizing public education through No Child Left Behind; add a major new unfunded entitlement to Medicare; and last summer, demonstrate that Republicans in power love pork as much as the Democrats ever did. We are watching what happens when Republicans have forgotten the constrained vision of the nature of man and replaced it with a fuzzy desire to do good."
Prescinding from the question of the war, I note that Murray, as a libertarian-conservative, omits two other violations which readers of this page would normally find egregious: Bush's endorsement of gay civil unions and his heralding of a Greater Hispania. But hey, what's the hurt in a little man love or some gangland violence?

The liberal Catholic journal Commonweal has an editorial explaining its view that Judge Alito's "narrow and troubling judicial philosophy should be rejected."

Alito Clears Judiciary Committee
Today's latest vote further entrenches the notion that Senate Democrats will oppose any conservative nominee to the Court based solely on political and ideological reasons and regardless of the nominee's high qualifications. The Democrats' current treatment of Judge Alito is a far cry from the 90-plus bipartisan votes used to confirm President Clinton's nominees Justice Ginsburg and Justice Breyer. So be it.
Judge Alito will be confirmed and Democrats have further exposed their ideological litmus test for the Court. Republicans must be sure to remember this the next time a Democratic President nominates a liberal to the Supreme Court. Regardless of qualifications, Republicans should invoke the "Alito precedent" and vote against the nominee.

Maybe American Boys Should Bleed for Them, Too.
Or maybe not. But they are, afterall, products of the same democratic process we are dying for in Iraq.
It often appears that enthusiastic supporters of Bush and the Iraq fiasco are so far off the reservation that it is probably useless to argue with them. Nevertheless, in the spirit of charity, I offer the following from Buchanan's latest "American Conservative":
"No greater folly has been committed by President Bush than his midlife conversion to the notion that America was put on this earth to advance some 'world democratic revolution' and no non-democrat can be a friend of the United States.
"From Louis XVI, who helped us win our Revolution, to Alexander II who sold us Alaska to keep it out of the paws of the British Lion, to Franco in Spain, Diem in Vietnam, Salazar in Portugal, Marcos in the Philippines, and, yes, Pinochot in Chile during the Cold War, this has been true, while democrats like Olof Palme in Sweden, Trudeau in Canada, and Nehru and Krishna Menon in India were often less than useless.
"Reagan recognized this. Why can't Bush?
"And as we look around the world and see Chavez in Venezuela, Kirchner in Argentina, Morales in Bolivia, Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Chirac in France, we note they have two things in common. All either hold power or are advancing to power through free elections, and none has a nice word to say about the United States of George W. Bush."
Of course, Buchanan's point does present some problems for the current administration. We'd have to find another rationale to ship Americans thousands of miles from home to die. And guess what? Al-Qaida ties and WMDs won't work, either.

Annual March for Life in Washington, D.C.
Though I have attended numerous Marches for Life, perhaps the most memorable was five years ago in 2001. In addition to being my first March for Life, that year's March also permitted me to attend the inauguration of President George W. Bush, a man I voted for and whose presidency I awaited with great hope.
Much has happened in the past five years, and all of my hopes for the Bush presidency have certainly not been realized. Nevertheless, with the confirmation of Chief Justice John Roberts and with the coming confirmation of Justice Samuel Alito, I believe that the President has done a real benefit to the pro-life movement and I expect to see a shift in the Supreme Court's abortion jurisprudence in the coming years.
Let us continue to fight in defense of the unborn and in recognition of the inherent dignity of all human life. We must not let the confirmation of Justices Roberts and Alito become the high-water mark of the pro-life movement. Instead, we must continue to advance the cause of life and truly bring about a Culture of Life.

Not buying it.
And, what, pourquoi, was the United States doing, on February 26, 1993, when Al-Qaeda set off a bomb in the basement of the World Trade Center; on August 7, 1998, when Al-Qaeda bombed the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania; on October 12, 2000, when Al-Qaeda bombed the U.S. Navy destroyer USS Cole in Yemen; and September 11, 2001, when Al-Qaeda crashed two commercial passenger jets into the World Trade Center, one into the Pentagon, and caused one to crash in rural Pennsylvania? So far as I can tell, nothing---except making his relatives rich by buying oil from the Saudis. If he attacks unprovoked, why then should we believe that he would honor a truce, especially if it allowed him to recover his former strength?
Osama felt depressed from not having the Soviets to kick around after they withdrew from Afghan country in 1989. He had a fanatical army, but no one to use it on. So, he figured he would pick a fight with the only other superpower in town, the very ally who supported him in Afghanistan. But, this time it isn't going so well. And, despite his claims of success in the most recent speech, the tide is not turning; Iraq is, in the midst of violence, voting. Hence, his truce.
No worries, Binny, we will trace back the chain of custody from this latest tape and kill you just like we are killing every other Al-Qaeda terrorist.

Ayotte Ruling
How so, Ryder? Isn't the court forcing the NH legislature to carve out an exception where none is desired? We'll see. The law was drafted too loosely, and now NH has an opportunity to tighten up the procedural aspects of the statute.
I think the much more devastating aspect of this ruling, from the perspective of Planned Parenthood et al, is that it spells the end of "let's run to the courthouse with a facial challenge and keep this law from ever being enforced," which admittedly has been one of their most effective tactics over the years. Lower courts will be far less likely to invalidate an entire statute such as the parential notification requirement passed in NH, given today's ruling.
And to think, we were worried that this one might need to be re-argued after Alito is confirmed.

"Catholic" Democrats Berate Alito on Abortion
"Catholic" Democrat Senators Ted Kennedy, Joe Biden, Dick Durbin, and Pat Leahy are so rabidly pro-abortion that they have raised the topic of abortion numerous times in an attempt to pin Judge Alito's position on the subject. Of course, the only answer that is acceptable to these "distinguished legal scholars" is that Judge Alito promise to uphold Roe, a decision which at best is constitutionally dubious and at worst is an outright fraud that has been responsible for the slaughter of over forty million unborn children.
The actions of Kennedy, Biden, Durbin, and Leahy are scandalous. Thank God that these men are in the minority and that another prominent "Catholic" Democrat, John Kerry, was not given the opportunity to appoint the replacements for Justices Rehnquist and O'Connor.
Perhaps equally as scandalous as the behavior of these Democrat Catholic Senators is the flaccid position taken by the U.S.C.C.B. and many of America's Catholic bishops during last year's Presidential Election. Unfortunately, the U.S.C.C.B. is likely to conduct a repeat performance during this year's federal elections.
Thankfully, there are numerous faithful Catholic organizations (American Life League, Priests for Life, Catholic Answers, EWTN, Fidelis, etc.) that have picked up the slack and will be once again ready to fight on behalf of the unborn during this year's elections.

Bishop Gumbleton Abused as Child
Auxiliary Bishop Thomas Gumbleton of Detroit, arguing for more time for sex abuse victims to sue the Roman Catholic Church, says he was abused by a priest 60 years ago.
Gumbleton, 75, told The Washington Post in an interview published in Wednesday's editions that he was "inappropriately touched" by a priest in 1945 when he was a ninth grader at Sacred Heart Seminary in Detroit.
He is believed to be the first U.S. bishop to disclose that he was a victim of clergy sexual abuse and also the first to endorse proposals in several states to remove time limits that have prevented many victims of sex abuse from suing the church.
"I don't want to exaggerate that I was terribly damaged," Gumbleton told the Post in a telephone interview. "It was not the kind of sexual abuse that many of the victims experience."

It may not be our church property, but it's still our Church
Under civil law, parish properties across the United States are registered in at least four very different ways (corporation sole, religious corporation, various trust models, and fee simple). But to complicate unavoidably an already complex situation, under canon law all parishes are "juridic persons" (1983 CIC 515). Thus, regardless of civil registration forms, Catholic parishes canonically own the assets assigned to or acquired by themselves (1983 CIC 1256). Pastors, who administer parish assets (1983 CIC 532, 1279), and bishops, who exercise vigilance over property belonging to juridic persons in their territory (1983 CIC 392, 1276), are sworn (1983 CIC 833) to act in accord with canon law in the performance of their duties lest, among other things, their actions be null and they themselves be derelict performance of their duties (cit. omm.). The stage is now set for a classic "free-exercise" conflict.Read the article. What do you make of what Dr. Peters has to say? Are you among those who think individual parishes and schools should not be touched because a) the parishioners have given to their parish (and have frequently built the parish) with the understanding that it is a local entity distinct from the diocese, and/or b) to do so might end up treading on Canon Law and render meaningless the juridical status of the parish? Or are some of us just called to suffer because we may live in a diocese which will lose one or more parishes/schools because the diocese had its share of priest molesters and kept its corporate structure centralized? Have a different opinion?
I'm with those who believe we may be called to suffer (more) as a result of poor decisions that have been made by our bishops and cardinals on so many levels. In many ways, this suffering has begun in spades. Most obviously, the victims themselves have suffered immensely...and many of them will never see a penny for all that they have been through. The good priests in this country, too, have suffered: from losing the right to minister to the faithful due to a false accusation, to the everyday snickers and dirty looks, these men have endured and carried on. I know one priest who is now so sensitive to the stereotypes that he refrains from even hugging his juvenile nieces and nephews. Too much? Try walking a day in his shoes. Another priest I know -- my college roommate for three years -- can no longer invite me to his room at the rectory to have me look at something, say, on his computer there. Nor can he put his old roommate up for a night in a spare room at the rectory, as he did in the past when I was visiting, because of the zero-tolerance policy now in place in his diocese. Although the policy has only minor impact on me, it is something he has to deal with every day.
And the Church Militant as a whole will continue to suffer the temporal consequences of the sins that have been committed in this scandal. It will suffer the inconvenience of having to travel further for mass, of having fewer options as to where to place children in Catholic school, and it may even lose nearby church buildings and be forced to improvise and rebuild. Without wanting to oversimplify these unfortunate circumstances, I think those who experience them would do well to offer them up for the real Church Suffering...the souls in Purgatory whose pain is such that we'd go back to actual catecombs for mass before swapping places with them.
While in Austria recently, I visited the cathedral in Salzburg -- the Dom -- which was bombed (by the Allies, no less) during WWII. There was extensive damage to the cathedral and the dome itself collapsed as a result, but it was completely rebuilt by the Austrian faithful. If memory serves, the restoration took from the end of the war until 1959. But rebuild they did, and so will those of us who lose our churches to the spiritual battle that was fought and lost in the hearts of so many severely misguided priests...and the hierarchy that enabled them for so long.

Are you sensation thrown and out? Do you perceive even worsened once you aspect in the mirror? Cosmetic surgeons give an account us you are not alone. They say the quality of trueness television shows approaching ABC TV's "Extreme Makeover" has led to an augmentative thunder in ornamental medical science. You may be one of the some population who are not jubilant near the way you gawk. Look in the mirror right now and transmit me what you see. Do you see flabby thighs, a droopy feature or a podgy tummy? If so, after liposuction could be just what the gp serial.
Liposuction is too acknowledged in the learned profession arena as lipoplasty or "lipo" for epigrammatic. Lipo surgically removes overegging the pudding fat from deposits below the covering in various areas of the body. The custom sounds close to it hurts. Surgeons use a hollow untarnished steel cylinder titled a tube. The tubing is crooked up to a vacuum. It is inserted into an impression in the covering. Fat deposits are next benignly sucked out of the unit.
"It didn't injured at all," says 25-Year old Jenn Rogers. Rogers is the parent of 3 twelvemonth old crystal. She settled to have lipo to get her appointment child abdomen wager on. She says, "I well-tried so rugged through exercise and diet to do it. But, nil I tried would hard work." Liposuction is briskly comme il faut one of the most having mass appeal forms of nonfunctional medical science for that vastly intention. It targets the areas of fat we'd like to sprout away. It is ordinarily utilized to downsize fat in the abdomen, hips, butt, thighs, chin, neck, back, pectus and weaponry. Can you allow that doctors also use lipo on the knees, ankles and calves? As you can see, liposuction will career on honourable give or take a few anyplace you see fat and impoverishment to secrete it!Post ads:

It sounds look-alike it hurts, doesn't it? Well, the amount of hurting depends on delicate lot. Liposuction can be achieved painlessly by provincial or broad physiological condition. However doctors see liposuction a kind surgical requirement. It is performed victimisation a common or district anesthesia. A beefy IV physiological state is likewise used in whatsoever cases. Recent advances have through a lot to effortlessness the agony. Doctors can now truthfully mark fat areas which relieve to moderate recovery times. Despite the recent popularity, lipo has in actuality been in circles for much than a period. "I had my freshman liposuction in 1992. It was before anyone even knew astir it. I desired to lessen the signs of aging in my face," says inactive institution teacher, 69 Year Old Rebecca Long. The grandparent of cardinal has had iii superfluous procedures since consequently. She laughs, "People now upset my daughter beside anyone my female sibling. I don't cognize if that's nifty for her, or bad!"
You may be wondering whether liposuction is for you. Some kindred illustration if they have the greenbacks consequently they can do it. But, whether you have the economics to pay for it is lately one of the factors you should wonder about. It is significant that a sawbones be pane certificated for the method that they are active to use. You'll deprivation to appearance at his or her experience and condition copy.
Liposuction is not hazard exonerate. There are plentiful property that can go unsuitable. Complications can pass due to a underprivileged view on the cut of the gp. The larger taught you are on the procedure, the greater you probability of staining a snag before it occurs. You should be attentive roughly disfiguring facial appearance irregularities that can come about if the operating surgeon tries to purloin too a great deal fat away in one form. The use of a walloping tube can likewise affect the resultant of your practice.Post ads:

Large cannula's displace fat without delay. However, they are more than promising to pb to leather irregularities after littlest cannulas do. Small cannulas are less than 3 millimeters in diameter. There's a brawny karma you'll call for a titanic tube depending on the amount of fat you demand understood away. Surgeons use the slight cannula's during the Tumescent Procedure. The American Medical Association says this method once used beside local anaesthesia is the safest. Under this method, the dilute local anaesthesia lasts for work time reducing the entail for drug headache assuagement. Doctors say in attendance have been no reportable deaths low this activity. In addition, even if it's utilized near at large anesthesia, Tumescent Procedure is innocuous if there's no thumping fat expurgation.
There is other surgical manoeuvre that utilizes a custom-made altered copy of the Tumescent Procedure. This qualified magazine combines local physiological condition with unspecific physiological condition or IV physiological condition. General physiological condition and IV physiological state may be harmful once nearly new alone, a short time ago dream of the difficulty once they're put both. As a result, an anesthetist essential be on mitt to toy with the regime.
You'll besides poverty to craft in no doubt that you don't have any new medical procedure procedures the same day as your liposuction. You'll poverty to abstain from perennial permanent status exposure to anesthesia because it's self-destructive. Taking away a colossal magnitude of fat can metal to sincere complications. Also, removing an immoderate magnitude from too more areas can likewise be insidious. You'll too impoverishment to sort certain that you don't have any another surgical procedures the aforementioned day as your liposuction. Healing can pass off like greased lightning appreciation to all the advances in liposuction.
Liposuction salvage present time are shorter present than a twosome of decades ago. You can rush back to a middle-of-the-road modus vivendi inside cardinal after surgery with furthermost procedures. However, a diminutive bit of provincial insensible filtrate in your set of contacts. It is next enthralled into the blood tributary. Would you agree to that exhausting the insensible medication out of your imprint in fact speeds your rate of healing? It also reduces expansion and harmful after medical science.
Drainage is as well speeded up by going away the incisions interested instead of last with sutures. Your doc can also produce midget holes in your skin to social unit drainage. Your doctor may too provoke you to fabric clothing to further more than drain. Your doctor can besides cesspit it done absorbefacient pads that are set complete your incisions. Despite the surgical concerns, liposuction is changing lives approaching Jenn and Rebecca's. It can meliorate unit bodily property and model ultimately principal to a happier, healthier, you.

With the Los Angeles Rams going through various plenty of changes over the offseason, the team is looking for a fresh new start heading into the 2017 season.
The same could be said about All-Pro running back Todd Gurley, who is coming off a disappointing second year where he rushed for just 885 yards with six touchdowns while averaging 3.2 yards per
On top of that, he is the first running back since the 1970 NFL-AFL merger to participate in all of his team's games and average as many carries per contest (17.4) without amassing a single 100-yard rushing performance for an entire season. Despite these struggles, Gurley has been able to mentally shift gears past last year's struggles with his focus solely fixated on what lie ahead.
"It's easy. It's another year. I've been playing this game my whole life," Gurley said. "It's just another offseason. Each offseason you want to make it better than the previous year – just focus on getting better."
Gurley already has a completely new challenge lined up before him prior to his third campaign that begins with learning how to implement himself in new head coach Sean McVay's offensive game plan. During the annual league meeting last month, McVay stated that he envisioned the Pro Bowl tail back experiencing a bounce-back year in 2017 as a huge component of the team's offense.
Despite not yet having a great grasp of the new playbook, Gurley is excited to get immersed into what he believes could be a strong fit for him.
"I know he's had successful offenses in the past," Gurley said. "We wouldn't have hired him if we didn't think he was a good coach. Definitely looking forward to it. "
There have been many steps taken in the offseason toward putting together a roster that gives the Rams a better position to succeed. The front office added potential impact players at critical positions in free agency that included bringing aboard two established lineman in former Pro Bowl left tackle Andrew Whitworth and center John Sullivan along with veteran wideout Robert Woods.
These moves along the offensive line could prove to be huge for the running game with Gurley as he struggled to break free at any point last year because of both the team's struggles in run blocking and his inability to make plays. That said, his main focus currently lies with taking it as a day-by-day process.
"Just getting better, just getting better every day.," Gurley said. "Taking it day-by-day and making it a better offseason than I've had in the past."

Book Publishing with WordPress and PressBooks
That book you've been sitting on for years, just won't write itself. In an age of digital everything, social media, and individual brands, how best to write and publish longform content?
WordPress can be a good tool to capture and manage writing and publishing books, longform prose, and other semantic content.
PressBooks is an open source WordPress plugin. You can easily export your books to Mobi (Kindle), EPUB (Apple iBooks, Nook), PDF (print-on-demand), and make a web version of your book.
If you know how to blog, you know how to make a beautiful ebook and a lovely typeset PDF. Many collaborators can work in distributed teams, and your book can be sold through Kindle, Apple iBooks, Nook, and other ebook retailers. It's "one button publishing."
(We might also discuss some not-yet-released apps for collaborative writing and editing semantic content in teams.)
Let's get started with WordPress and PressBooks!

Who ever thought that anyone would get excited about a license? But the GPL is one of those things that people love, and people hate. This presentation will look at what the GPL is and how it works, how it found its way into WordPress, and what it means for you.

2. open source in the wild
3. contributions and company IP
Scoping Projects to Reduce Stress, Anxiety and Angry Mobs From Forming at Your Door
Attention to detail in your code and design work is important – but before you lay down one single pixel, or one single line of code, you need to make sure that everyone (you, your client, your clients client, etc) are on the same page and make sure you are managing expectations on what the desired project outcome is.
You, and your client(s), need to determine which theme framework (if any) are appropriate for the project, which plugins can be utilized to meet the goals of the project and determine which aspects of the project require custom development to account for features that existing plugins do not currently cover.
Managing expectations and properly scoping out a project is key to successful project management, both for you and for your client.
This 30-40 minute covers hard lessons I've learned in a decade of client work – I hope to pass those headaches on to you so you don't make the same mistakes. Q/A welcome, afterwards.

I'd like to explore the different tools we use to handle clients, from the initial lead email/phone call, to the final invoice getting paid, and the different mistakes we've made in the last 3 years doing WP projects for clients of all sizes.
I'll go beyond the basic, "use freshbooks for invoicing, basecamp for PM, etc…" and get into some of the more advanced integrations and reasoning for using a certain tool over another.
I'll pepper in some real stories of how small/large clients responded to certain tools, and what we'd recommend for each.
I'll include some different variations depending on the team size, but most tools will be aimed at 1-5 person shops.

I'd like to talk to anyone who'll listen about the dangers of only handling support from a defensive stand point (that is, being reactive to your users and any issues that arise from your code or service).
The defense-only method will leave you scrambling and spending extra time responding to customer problems. Having a pro-active (offensive) approach is a crucial and overlooked component.
By anticipating the needs of your users and providing solutions ahead of time you can reduce customer support requests and spend more time developing your awesome product.
Tools to curate content to your blog
Once you have set up your blog and ready to create your own content, there are many tools to curate content in your own niche to establish yourself as an authority on your subject. We will address easy tools to find content in your niche and easily create it in your blog.
Freelance Primer
I started freelancing full time out of necessity during the dot bomb in 2001. There were no blogs on freelancing, no conferences, but I was deeply blessed to find a mentor who helped me avoid the worst mistakes my first year. While you shouldn't get paralysis by analysis (just get started), certain key tips often make the difference between navigating a successful freelance career and a lot of sleepless nights. Whether you are dreaming about freelancing or in the thick of bootstrapping, be practical and be intentional about running a business and you will be successful.
* Why you ALWAYS get a deposit
* What to spend money on and what to skip
* How to get a business license and what form of business to choose
* Don't be a cowboy, get input from the right people
* Why you should clock your time, even if your aren't paid for it
* Contracts matter – finding a template you can use
* The IRS is watching: separate bank accounts and track your finances
* Planing makes you real money: think about deductions and expenses now
* Avoid the bad projects and evil clients with a project checklist
* 6 months in the bank = freedom to define your terms
* And so much more…
If You Use "Impact", My Heart Will Cry: Font Exploration for your WordPress Sites
You guys, if you want to have a well designed website, fonts make the most impact with the least resistance. That doesn't stop people from using the same old fonts that use Helvetica.
This talk will give some hints about tools you can use to make your websites look most excellent – or at the very least – different from a WordPress default theme. We'll go over:
– Why system fonts can be played out
– Things type designers look for (line heights, spacing, kerning)
– CSS3 properties that make fonts even more awesome
– How people used to do this before: images (boo!), cufon, etc.
– Tools that are awesome: Google Fonts, TypeKit, Typecast, kerning.js
It's All Fun In The Sun Until Someone Gets Burned
I would like to talk about how WordPress sites are compromised, and the steps that are needed in order to properly recover once a compromise has occurred. To do this, I will be showing both the hacking life cycle and the incident response life cycle. I will show a live demo of compromising a site including how attackers maintain access to a site after the initial compromise. Finally, I will show how incident response is conducted including detection, analysis, and recovery (including how to prevent the same thing from happening again).
How to Hire and Manage a Developer
As a seasoned web professional since 1995, I am always interested in hearing stories from individuals who have encountered challenges while working with a developer. I have led several sessions focusing on this topic and I always start by asking the audience what kinds of problems they have experienced in the past. Some of the common threads include:
• "My developer delivered something that was not exactly what I had in mind. I then had to pay them to change it to match my expectations."
• "My developer missed the deadline."
• "My developer has gone AWOL. They refuse to return my phone calls and emails."
• "The costs are spiraling out of control with no end in site."
• "My developer takes suggestions personally."
• "My developer does not understand my industry."
• "My developer does not have the core competencies to complete every aspect of my project."
While the audience always has a good laugh at some of these responses, none of them surprise me. I have heard them all before. The good news is that many of these problems can be avoided up front with proper planning and expectation management.
Developers are a rare breed. Given the barriers pertaining to technical jargon, preconceived notions can ultimately create conflicting ideas of what the finished product should look like. Instructions and objectives can become cloudy – ultimately creating a loss of time, effort and money for the hiring party.
This presentation will cover Interviewing Your Potential Developer, Planning & Project Management, Using a Version Control System, and Bug Reporting. Ii will give the audience a reality check on how to go about working with a developer to get a project built on time and on budget.
Here is a brief list of some of the questions that will be answered in the presentation:
• What questions should I ask when interviewing a developer?
• What are the communication pitfalls that I should avoid?
• How can clients get involved in project management?
• What is version control and how does it benefit me?
• What is the best way to handle bug reporting?
The presentation will also delve deeper into questions that should be asked throughout the various phases of working with a developer, including:
• Will my project be billed as hourly or as a flat rate?
• Once my project launches, is there a maintenance fee?
• Where does my project rank with the other projects on your production schedule?
• Do you have the bandwidth to give my project the attention it deserves?
• What is your procedure when something goes wrong?
In addition to providing appropriate questions that should be addressed, the presentation will also involve examples of common answers and real life examples. It will include suggestions based on years of first hand experience from the developer's point of view.
Child Theming & Customizing Twenty Thirteen for Self-hosted WordPress
Twenty Twelve is the new, fully responsive default theme by WordPress.org. It is lightweight, fast, and is becoming a favorite starting point for developers wanting to create a responsive user experience for their visitors.
My session will cover the basics of the theme, including file structure, how to create a child theme and make it your own, using post formats, how to add more widgeted areas to your functions.php file and more.
Introduction to WordPress Multisite
As an experienced WP designer/dev, I'd been scared to jump into multi-site for so many reasons – yet I manage a server with 40+ installations of WordPress. What was I thinking?
I'd like to present a brief introduction to Multi-site for folks already familiar with WP – how it works, how it's set up, requirements, things to be aware of, how domain mapping works, how to set up development/test environments, even some basic plugins that have been really helpful in developing a network we run.

Encouraging community collaboration (plugins / themes)
I'd like to present on various ways to encourage other members of the community to contribute back to your plugins / themes, in the form of code patches, assistance with support, and marketing (sharing the word).
I will present on a lot of the things I have learned from developing / managing Easy Digital Downloads, a popular ecommerce plugin that has a large number of official contributors and even more one-off contributions from members of the WordPress community.
Staying of the Website Threats and Becoming One with Malware
I'd like to provide my friends in Miami a WordPress Security talk like no other. I'd get jiggy with the crowd, talk about the latest threats and things they can do to really help themselves. The idea is to educate and in the process help them gain a deeper appreciation for the underbelly of the web and the realities of the web based malware.
No one cares about your content (yet).
While content as 'king' may not be the best analogy, the importance of well-written, useful, textual content can't be overstated. Tone can affect engagement, keywords can make or break your SEO, length can kill interest—great writing is vital. Content isn't just blog posts or 'About' pages, it's everything that gives information (including the way the information itself is presented).
You've got a great business or cause, but there are countless others just a click away. How do you find the right people to get involved, and how do you make them care?
In this session, we'll refresh how you view your own web content by seeing it through the eyes of the user, and we'll discuss methods of improving UX by employing simple and effective psychology alongside common-sense SEO. We'll also explore how methods of effective in-person conversation can be applied to web content strategy. Then, since better prospects will be finding and reading your content, I'll show you how to target your audience, measure the results, and constantly improve your outreach.
Through being both appropriately satirical and data-driven, I take a unique approach to getting content creators to spend some time in the shoes of their audience, revealing some of the absurdities of our assumptions and demonstrating how to challenge and test them. Data, empathy, logic, and optimization, together, always lead to better engagement. More concretely, we'll discuss:
1. How visitors measure and absorb value when viewing web content (using data, psychology, and theories)
2. How real conversation teaches us how to engage with visitors
3. How to systematically and sustainably empathize with your target audience
4. How to make content memorable through positive emotional interaction
5. How to define and focus on your target audience
6. How to identify and test your assumptions about user interaction
You can also read through attendee feedback and see the slides from previous times I've given this presentation: http://logos-creative.com/noonecares/ and http://logos-creative.com/wcphx/
Why LiveNinja Choose WordPress/BuddyPress
Recommended by David Bissett.
LiveNinja is a videochat marketplace built on wordpress/buddypress and based in Miami, FL . The presentation would cover why we chose wordpress over other cms products as well as HOW we use wordpress, the power of custom post types and different caching mechanisms to build a fast, scalable service in the cloud.
Using WordPress to Generate Traffic, Leads and Customers for Your Business.
I'd like to talk about how I use WordPress with my clients to generate traffic, leads and customers. I'll give concrete examples on how I'm:
Doing on page SEO with WordPress – with concrete examples of what has worked for me.
Creating Blog schedules and keyword targeted Blog Posts – with examples of how weekly blogging has generated targeted traffic for me and my clients.
Creating Calls to Action and Landing Pages in WordPress – the good bad and ugly, what works and why.
From URL to Query
Ever wonder what process WordPress undertakes when someone visits your site? Or how it translates that nice permalink to the database query that ultimately delivers the content your visitors requested? Or what it takes to load the appropriate template from your site's theme?
In this talk, I'll walk through WordPress' loading process and shed some light on the various APIs used. I'll also discuss how these APIs work together to make the software function.
Designing for Development
The traditional workflow of Photoshop comps being handed off to slicing by a web developer is facing challenges by newer techniques, such as responsive/adaptive design. CSS3 has been around for a while but not all Photoshop effects will translate easily.
If you're a designer and you're not aware of these limitations, you may be causing a breakdown in the workflow with your colleagues. This talk will give advice, workflow tips, and a short primer on the WordPress theme structure so you can create comps that developers will enjoy implementing.
Increase WordPress Performance on the Stack
I would be speaking about how to increase WordPress performance on the back-end server. Even though most of the slowness of the web is on the front-end, most of the time, there is still some things you can do like caching the database via Memcached (using plugins like W3 Total Cache), running an HTTP caching proxy like Varnish, or using a faster server architecture, like Nginx with PHP-FPM, instead of running Apache.
I could also get into better server configuration settings, like making sure PHP and your web server is ideal to your server specifications. This would be a speech for the people running on their own virtual/dedicated servers, as on shared hosting, they would not have access to these configuration files.
The Importance of Storytelling in Web Design
With the craft of web design, we often focus on coding methodologies, user interface design, color theory, typography and scripting. While these details are important, we also need to take a step back and apply a more meta approach to the entire design of a website and how it engages end-users. What if we strengthened our creations for the web by building them upon a foundation of Story? Let's explore the growing importance of storytelling in web design, how to communicate Story through all aspects of a website from content, to design, to ux; and how to apply key components of great storytelling in literature to the medium of the web.
Using WordPress as an Application Framework
At WDS, we've used WordPress to build some amazing applications far beyond a standard website. WordPress is a perfect platform for any web based application you can dream of. In this presentation we'll discuss the advantages of using WordPress as an application framework. I'll also demo some crazy applications we've built over the years to get everyone in attendance thinking outside the box when utilizing WordPress for their projects.
Using WordPress in an Agile Environment
I can speak on User Experience, I can speak on the difference between Lean and Agile UX, What I want to do is relate User Experience to WordPress, so ultimately I would like to research and possibly speak on the topic of Using WordPress in an Agile Environment.
Integrating with APIs
An application programming interface (API) is a way for two different pieces of software to communicate with each other. In your WordPress plugins and themes, you'll often want to pull data from or send data to a third-party service that has an API. In this talk, Randy will explain the terminology you need to know to get started, share best practices and techniques for integrating with APIs, and walk through two real-world examples. You'll leave with code snippets to help you get started integrating.

American gymnast spots bee on podium, freaks out
American gymnast Simone Biles was accepting her gold medal at the FIG Artistic Gymnastics World Championship in Nanning, China, when a fellow gymnast warned her that the bouquet of flowers she had just received had a bee in it, and that is when everything went crazy.
Despite her superior athleticism, Biles could not seem to shake the bee, even when she jumped down from her place atop the podium.

Models For Population GrowthBY: Sandhya Anand | Category: Others | Submitted: 2011-03-25 18:30:38

According to Levins, modeling is a balancing act bet.."
Population models form an essential tool to study the dynamics and characteristics of a population. They aim to represent the changes to the population structure over time in mathematical equations. All models, mathematical or otherwise are abstract representations of reality. According to Levins, modeling is a balancing act between three major parameters, generality, realism and precision.
Population models tend to characterize the general properties of the population and are idealized representations which ignore the existence of random variation among the members of the population.
These models are based on two patterns of growth of population namely exponential and geometric population growth patterns.
a. Exponential population growth assumes that populations grow in an exponential pattern. Individuals are added on a continuous scale to such populations. Bacteria and some kinds of insects fall into this group.
This is based on the Malthusian Principle which specifies the change in population density as
dN / dt = rN
The growth of population after t generations is given by the equation
N (t) = N (0) e rt
Where N (t) is the population density after t generations
N (0) is the initial population density
e is the base of natural logarithmic scale.
And r refers to the intrinsic rate of natural increase.
If r = 0 the population is stable. If r>0, then the population is found to be growing and if r<0, then the population will shrink and tend towards zero; i.e. they are facing extinction.
However, the second scenario where r>0 favoring unlimited growth of population is not true in nature. In natural ecosystems, the population growth is limited by other factors of the environment which clearly limits the population growth. In order to accommodate for these variations, a new model was proposed.
b. Geometric population growth models propose a geometric pattern of growth.
They describe the changes in populations across generations as a geometric increase in discrete intervals.
The population density after t+1 generation is defined by
N (t+1) = N (t) λ
Where 'λ' - geometric growth rate
This represents the proportional growth of population
If λ is 0.5 the population density gets reduced by 50 %. If λ is 1.5, the population density will increase by 50%. At λ=1, the population is considered to be stable.
The equation can also be represented as
N (t) = N (0)λ t
Where N (0) represents the initial population density.
When the equation is compared with that of exponential growth, we get the relation between geometric and exponential growth rates of population
As λ = er
Or ln λ = r
BIDE model
Geometric population growth rate is a derivative of this fundamental model and hence the two cannot be considered as separate.
There are four ways in which a population size can be altered, birth (B), death (D), immigration (I) and emigration (E). The change in population size is represented as
Population size after t+1 generation is described as
N t+1 = Nt +Bt +It- Dt -Et
Closed populations does not have immigration or emigration, hence the equation is limited to rates of birth and death in such populations.
Here, It = 0 and Et = 0, and
N t+1 = Nt +Bt - Dt
When the birth and death rates are expressed as per capita rates the accuracy increases.
N t+1 = Nt +bt Nt - dt Nt
N t+1 = Nt + (bt- dt) Nt
Per capita rates are assumed to be constant over generations and this equation thus gives the geometric rate of growth. The difference b-d can be represented as a constant R, since b and d are assumed to be constants,
N t+1 = (1 +( bt- dt)) Nt
Hence, N t+1 = (1 +R) Nt
And N t+1 = λ Nt λ = 1+R
The difference between R, r and lambda is in the biological realm. It determines the type of reproduction in the population (either pulse or continuous), and survival rates (instantaneous or finite)
c. Logistic model
This model was developed by Verhulst in 1838 after the exponential growth models failed to accurately represent the characteristics of the original population, especially at lower values of r.
The model was further developed by Pearl, earning the title Verhulst-Pearl model.
The differential equation is given by
dN/dt = kN (1-N/K)
where K- carrying capacity of the population and N is the population size.
When N is smaller than K, this reaches the exponential growth rates.

Inspectors Interface
Contains a set of Inspector objects representing all inspectors.
Namespace: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook
Assembly: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook (in Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll)
This is a .NET interface derived from a COM coclass that is required by managed code for interoperability with the corresponding COM object. Use this derived interface to access all method, property, and event members of the COM object. However, if a method or event you want to use shares the same name under the same COM object, cast to the corresponding primary interface to call the method, and cast to the latest events interface to connect to the event. Refer to this topic for information about the COM object. For information about the method and property members of the COM object, see _Inspectors. For information about the event members of the COM object, see InspectorEvents_10_Event.
An inspector need not be visible to be included in the collection.
Use the Inspectors property to return the Inspectors object from the Application object.

I know that I already made one post about this contest, but it has been locked (again) so I do it in a way, were I wont break any forum rules... and a odd rule, for the mater of fact...
This is a contest were you make a Comic In 5 Panels. Its were you try to make a parody of a comic by cutting it down to five panels. If you need some inspiration, you could take a look at my 5-panels on Comicvine, or you could take a look at my blog http://www.comicsin5panels.blogspot.dk/search?updated-max=2013-08-17T09:52:00-07:00&max-results=7&start=7&by-date=false
If you want to join, you send me a private mail with a link to your 5-panel. That way I can post it on Twitter to.
There are two rules you HAVE to follow:
No more, no less. You are allowed to use the same panel more than once, and ad pictures, like a photo of yourself.
So if you make more than one, you must decide witch one you want to use in the contest.
You have to October the 17.
