This page explains:
A Compliance Schedule is required for buildings that are not used wholly as a single household unit if the building has a specified system i.e., automatic sprinkler, back flow prevention, fire alarm, etc.
Compliance Schedules are required for buildings used wholly as single household units only if it has a cable car attached to it or servicing it.
It is the owner's responsibility to ensure that their building is safe. If your building has any specified systems the Building Act requires that you have a Compliance Schedule (issued by Council).
A new compliance schedule can be obtained by contacting email@example.com.
There is a cost to issue or amend your Compliance Schedule.
You will need to provide the street address of your building and (if known) the Compliance schedule number. You can find this on the Compliance Schedule near the top of the document.
You should send Building Warrant of Fitness on or before origin /issue date (example date only).
A Building Warrant of Fitness (BWoF) is a statement supplied by a building owner, confirming that the systems specified in the Compliance Schedule for their building have been maintained and checked in accordance with the compliance schedule for the previous 12 months, and that they will continue to perform as required.
It is an offence under section 108 (5)(aa) of the Building Act 2004 not to supply a BWoF and a person who commits an offence is liable to a fine not exceeding $20,000.
You are required to display a Building Warrant of Fitness in a prominent place that is accessible to the public (this maybe the foyer or reception area) of your building.
A BWoF must be supplied on Form 12 of the Building (Forms) Regulations 2004. It must include generic information as well as the following.
The Building Act 2004 requires that:
The territorial authority will review the BWoF and the IQP documents provided. There is a fee charged for this review. This fee is set by Council every year and is published on Council's website.
Where any recommendations have been made by an IQP, Council will determine whether the compliance schedule needs to be amended, based on those recommendations and advise you or your agent of the outcome.
The Act requires Council to proactively check a building to ensure a BWoF is correct, and that IQP reports are correct. We may write to you to request an appointment for a site audit.
We now charge for this audit/inspection.
Council will strive to remind you at least a month prior to when you Building Warrant of Fitness is due. With this reminder there is a form that allows you to update any contact details, which you should compete and send back to us as soon as possible.
You should however not rely solely on this Council reminder but ideally diary the activity at least a month prior to your Building Warrant of Fitness due return date.
A Building Warrant of Fitness is also required.
You should ensure that you have arranged all the inspections and maintenance required prior to the due date.
This reminder includes a blank form 12 (BWoF form), a change of detail form, and the form 12A.
To allow us to provide a better and more responsive service please fill this form in and include contact phone numbers and email addresses. This will allow us to quickly contact you if there are any issues. Council can also provide a compliance schedule for your building. Please apply to email@example.com.
Please take time to read about some important changes to the BWoF regime managed by Porirua City Council.
If a complete BWoF is not provided to the Council by the due date, a Notice to Fix (NTF) will be issued to the building owner, which will incur an additional fee. If you are sending your return by email, please send to firstname.lastname@example.com. You will receive acknowledgment of receipt. Note you should include evidence of the renewal payment being made to avoid it being returned unprocessed. You should pay the fee when you submit your BWoF return.
The annual renewal fee is displayed on the Council web site.
Please note: You should ensure that relevant 12A forms are attached and all the information on the BWoF must be correct.
If the renewal fee is not paid the debt may be sent to a debt collection agent.
Section 219 of the Building Act 2004 allows the Council to recover costs for performing functions under the Building Act 2004, including costs for processing BWoFs. In accordance with section 219, the Council will not process a BWoF if a renewal fee is not paid.
If you make an electronic payment please ensure you clearly identify that the payment is for the BWoF by including your unique CS number as a reference on the transaction record. Please include evidence of any payment that you have made when you submit the BWoF to the Council.
Where a BWoF is overdue, incomplete, and or incorrect, a Notice to Fix will be issued to the building owner. If a building owner does not comply with the requirements of a Notice to Fix, an Infringement Notice will be issued.
Please note that the infringement fee for the Infringement Notice is $1000 and may be enforced by the District Court.
If any amendments to your contact details or agents contact details are required please fill in the enclosed change of details form and return it to the Council with your BWoF documentation.

What's Your Favorite Heinlein Novel, David Drake?
My parents gave me a subscription to an SF magazine for my 14th birthday, September 24, 1959. Rather than to choose the magazine themselves or to spoil the surprise by asking me, they bought the current issue of each SF magazine on the local newsstand and gave them to me so that I could pick the one I wanted. The October, 1959, issue of F&SF was among the options.
October, 1959 was F&SF's tenth anniversary issue; possibly the best issue of what I now believe was (during the '50s) the best SF magazine of all time. There was a lot to like in it, but the first part of Heinlein's Starship Soldier (the serialized version of Starship Troopers) was what convinced me that I wanted a subscription to F&SF.
In 1973 I was writing what became the first story in the Hammer's Slammers series. (I didn't intend it as a series at the time.) I had arrived at opinions about society which were different from those which Heinlein advocated; and I knew things about ground war which Heinlein, whose military service was that of a peacetime naval officer, would never know.
Due to what was probably a subconscious warning, I picked up a paperback copy of Starship Troopers and reread the opening chapter. I then went back over my story to make sure that none of it was flatly plagiarized from Heinlein.
I don't know how obvious it is to anyone else, but it was extremely obvious to me: I could not have written The Butcher's Bill had I not read Starship Soldier so long before.

I'm partial to JOB: A Comedy of Justice.
July 19, 2010 at 8:32 pm
I'm not 100% sure when I started reading RAH – certainly before 1960. Chosing a favorite is difficult, but i'd have to go with either Starship Troopers or Podkayne of Mars
July 20, 2010 at 5:09 pm
I still remember finding "Starship Troopers" in the junior-high library and wondering why the helmet on the cover art had bolts going into its ears.
And, incidentally, I *wish* that someone would bring out an English edition with the Miyatake illustrations. Those were sweet!
July 22, 2010 at 8:14 am
That's a remarkably hard task. I own every Heinlein novel in hardcover, so you can imagine how hard it would be to choose just one. Heinlein was a forerunner in that he led the way to a number of great ideas. He was on the money on a lot of things that we live with now and a lot of the moral and ethical questions technology poses. But for a favorite? Wow.
All books fall into a few categories. One of my favorite types is the cinematic novel; a story that becomes a mental movie. These books and stories are the best source for movies, by the way. Heinlein did a few of these (Starship Troopers was NOT one of them)like "All You Zombies" and "The Unpleasant Profession of Jonathon Hoag", but my favorite is "Star Beast". This is a book that should have been filmed by Speilberg in his prime.

The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. If you don't cry when Mike the computer dies, you have no soul.
August 6, 2010 at 10:59 pm
If he dies. Arguably Mike simply ceased communicating with those stupid humans, once the safety of his computer body on the now-liberated Moon was secure.
August 16, 2010 at 12:51 pm
Starship troopers is the best. I liked all of Heinlein's until he tried to be a sex writer instead of a science fantasy writer. He had no equal as a science fantasy author as Asimov in true science and science fiction.
September 7, 2010 at 11:47 am
What can I say, from Starship Troopers to Stranger in a Strange Land to Number of The Beast. I love them all. RLH simply the best SF Writer of all.
September 8, 2010 at 1:01 pm
My favorite Heinlen is: "The Moon is a HArsh Mistress"!
It is a great conbination of technology & a very human story !! (Plus its not preachy" as some of R.H.s later novels trended).

"The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way." – Marcus Aurelius
Broken Back Games began eight years ago when I fell down a nine metre hole and broke my back. Was an horrific event, but last year I decided to turned it into something more than an horrific event and create Plummet Free Fall. Plummet went a great success and the game became a worldwide #1 hit.
Chasing innovation and disruption propelled by naivety and ego, I took the process I used to create Plummet of crowdsourcing and outsourcing to start the Gamestarter project. One hell of journey and six months later Broken Back Games and I were penniless. Gamestarter was canned and BBG very nearly followed it.
But we survived completely changing it's operating model to a partner focused model and the vision to create games on real stories and help others turn their game dreams into reality.
Now Broken Back Games runs a very lean process to determine a project's success and is testing ideas in gamification for the logistics industry , virtual reality and game creation process.

|By Gingalover
|Part of the Avatar: New Universe II continuity.
Harlem is Azula's other form during the Slenderman event. Harlem came to be from Azula's capturement and brainwash, thus making Azula into Harlem. Harlem shares many similarities from the regular Azula but she has a scar sliced on her side and had even lost an eye. She even has her own unique false history so she doesn't get so easily recognized. Her past consists of Zuko killing her father, and was the one who scarred her for life (though the truth is Switchblade scarred her). She wanted revenge purely on Zuko for his false actions.
She is able to firebend and lightningbend much like Azula but her lightningbending is much more controlled, as she is able to direct and redirect it much more easily than regular lightningbending.
This form "appears" when Azula returns from being captured and brainwashed and had convinced Penelope to join the SCP. Ever since the attack on Azula, Harlem was in control and was the one who keeps trying to kill Team Avatar when they return from the Cooper World. She especially wanted to get even with Zuko for the longest time and when it finally came to the Agni Kai, she insists on finishing Zuko off. However, Zuko eventually wins and it was thanks to Azula's deceased mother, who showed Azula her true history, that Harlem disappeared from memory.

This package contains the following programs:
Hip Flexors Flexibility
How to know if this program is for you. For many people the use of this program is it's patented Zaichik Streching techniques and their difference from standard stretches. One of the large problem with mainstream stretching techniques is that, if you can't stretch, you don't know what is holding you back. In terms of the hip flexors, it can be Sartorius, Rectus Femoris, Tensor Fasciae Latea, Pectenius, Psoas or Illiacus. It can also be upper Adductors or even Gluteus Minimus. If one is tight, the rest will not move. Zaichik Stretches allow you to get each one by itself and lengthen much faster, once you know where the problem is
Core Extension
Core Flexibility is an important factor in many sports. Although commonly called "Back Flexibility" Hyper extension of the spine is the flexibility of the anterior structures. In very deep ranges structures supporting the spine get stretches. For most people however being able to stretch back, requires the flexibility of the rectus abdominis, psoas minor and oblique's.
Hamstrings Flexibility - Intermediate
In this DVD you will learn everything that you need in order to get your hamstrings flexible! If you can touch your toes this is the DVD for you! This is a full follow along workout for fast hamstrings flexibility for intermediate studentsf.
Foot and Ankle
Flexibility of the lower leg is often overlooked. Most athletes don't go much past the standard calve stretches.In reality any athlete can become more mobile and agile with increased flexibility of the lower leg muscles and joints. While this applies mostly to skills, which involve ground reaction forces, others can benefit as well.Like all the other Zaichik Stretching programs, the foot and ankle flexibility program takes each movement apart into the participating muscles. There are various muscles that points the toes and pulls them in. Each one is worked on individually. Using the principles of action vs action stretches for the same muscle groups, the pain of stretch reflex is avoided. This allows for faster flexibility gains. Together with the stretching exercises, the strengthening exercises protect the joints and allow long term flexibility retention.
Adductors Flexibility and Strength Training
Exercises such as straddle and butterfly are common adductors stretching techniques. These exercise are helpful yoga postures. However they target many muscles at the same time. Zaichik stretching approach is different. Each muscle is targeted individually. At the same time using action vs action approach, stretch reflex is avoided. Avoiding the stretch reflex allows to eliminate the pain of stretching. Moreover Zaichik Stretching allows the practitioner to pinpoint the problem. In other words, if only one muscle is tight out of the group, all the athlete has to do, is focus on that muscle and release it. Many people found that Zaichik Stretching to do the trick for them. Allowing them to break through the wall, where traditional stretches have stopped working.

The Marler Clark attorneys are constant advocates for food safety. All of our lawyers have published articles and opinion-editorials on the topic of food safety or food safety litigation. Read published articles written by or about the lawyers at Marler Clark:
Raw Milk: An Issue of Safety or Freedom?
Attorney Drew Falkenstein wrote "Raw Milk" An Issue or Safety or Freedom" for the April 2013 issue of the Journal of Environmental Health. In it he asks, "Is there any one food that is as frustrating as raw milk? Is there any other food that is a subject of so much passion, politics, and attempted persuasion? Have you ever wondered whether sale of the product could simply be outlawed entirely—or, for that matter, legalized everywhere?"
The Rights of Environmental Health Specialists to Conduct On-Site Inspections
In the September 2012 issue of the Journal of Environmental Health, Colin Caywood writes, "While every state law is different, environmental health specialists should feel comfortable in carrying out their job duties knowing that they have legal authority to perform their inspections and that refusal of access by a regulated entity has firm legal consequences."
Depositions 101
Patti Waller's article in the June, 2012 Journal of Environmental Health focuses on what environmental health professionals need to know about depositions in the event that they are required to appear and testify as a witness in a foodborne illness lawsuit.
What Is a Deposition? A deposition is part of the process of assembling evidence before trial in a lawsuit. It is called by an attorney for one of the parties to a lawsuit and takes place away from the courtroom. There are several reasons to depose you as a witness. A deposition allows attorneys to evaluate how you will do as a trial witness and establishes what your testimony will be.
Public Health Records That Stand Up in Court
David Babcock begins his article for the April 2012 issue of the Journal of Environmental Health, "An environmental health inspector is writing up his or her restaurant inspection report. An epidemiologist is logging food history with an ill member of the public. In either case, the possibility that the document may someday be held to close legal scrutiny may be the furthest thing from their minds. But, while an exceedingly small percentage of food poisoning cases become legal matters, it does happen. And when it does, the documents generated by local health agencies are often front and center."
Why the Retention of Public Health Records Matters
Andrew Weisbecker wrote this article for the Journal of Environmental Health. In the article, Mr. Weisbecker addresses the need for public health agencies to put in place effective records and information management programs, establishing retention requirements based upon records' legal, fiscal, administrative, and historical requirements and values. He writes, "Without such requirements, organizations either destroy records that should be retained or retain everything, thereby taking a legal risk or assuming unnecessary costs."
Lawyers, Microbiologists and Safe Food
In his article for the June 2010 issue of Microbiologist Magazine, Bill Marler describes how his career in law has developed to encompass microbiological food safety. He explains the ways in which microbiology features in his day-to-day life as a plaintiff's attorney at Marler Clark.
Legal Issues for Food Safety: What every food professional should know
In William Marler's article, which appeared in the Food Law & Guidance section of Food Safety & Quality Magazine, he states: "Preventing an outbreak is not only better for consumers but helps protect a company's image and bottom line. In addition to the cost of defending against civil lawsuits, there is significant damage to business, including lost revenue, bad publicity and loss of future sales. To make matters worse, in some cases there might be criminal penalties. Understanding liability, minimizing risk and taking precautionary measures will help to safeguard a company's future."
Contaminated Fresh Produce and Product Liability: A Law-in-Action Perspective
Denis Stearns wrote "Contaminated Fresh Produce and Product Liability: A Law-in-Action Perspective," in Microbial Safety of Fresh Produce: Challenges, Perspectives, and Strategies, an IFT Press publication to be released in 2009. According to the publisher, "[the book] covers all aspects of produce safety including pathogen ecology, agro-management, pre-harvest and post-harvest interventions, and adverse economic impacts of outbreaks. The book examines the current state of the problems associated with fresh produce by reviewing the recent, high-profile outbreak sassociated with fresh-produce, including the possible internalization of pathogens by plant tissues, and understanding how human pathogens survive and multiply in water, soils, and fresh fruits and vegetables."
New Kid on the Block
Colin Caywood wrote about his experience as a first-year associate at Marler Clark for the January 2009 issue of the King County Bar Association's Bar Bulletin. In it, he points out that every new lawyer's experience is different since every law practice is unique, then draws parallels between himself and his peers who are beginning new careers and are familiarizing themselves with the day-to-day aspects of being an attorney that law school does not prepare students for.
Intentional Contamination: The Legal Risks and Responsibilities
Denis Stearns wrote this article for the Journal of Environmental Health. In the article, Mr. Stearns addresses who is legally responsible for injuries sustained after a person becomes ill after consuming a product that was intentionally contaminated before it was purchased. He wrote: Beyond the political implications of the use of food products as weapons, there is also the legal question of whether a company can be held liable for the criminal acts of an employee who decides, for whatever reason, to contaminate food products that then go on to make a number of people sick. To answer this question, we need first to discuss the rule of vicarious liability, or, as it is also known, respondeat superior—which is Latin for "let the superior make the answer."
Food Safety and the CEO: Keys to Bottom Line Success
William Marler's article for the October/November 2007 issue of Food Safety Magazine begins, "Foodborne illness has, of course, been around as long as there has been food. But the identification and diagnosis of these diseasesis an emerging science that is changing all sectors of the food business, and those chief executive officers (CEOs) and senior level directors and managers who do not keep up are bound to be at a significant disadvantage when making critical decisions about their businesses".
It's Not Just Montezuma's Revenge Anymore . . .
Dave Babcock wrote this article, which was published in the November, 2007 issue of the Journal of Environmental Health. The article begins, "ast night you attended a catered function for your favorite charity. Now, 24 hours later, you are feeling less than charitable. In the past hour, you have vomited five times. Your head is pounding, your back aches, and you have a fever. Just before the diarrhea begins, a friend from the charity's board calls to see how you are doing. She informs you that several others who attended the function are sharing in your misery." The focus of the article is Norovirus outbreaks and whether victims of such outbreaks, whether they were infected by consuming Norovirus-contamianted food or through environmental contamination in an institutional setting such as a nursing home or assisted living facility or on a cruise ship, can recover damages for their illness.
Class Action Foodborne-Illness Claims
Published in the Journal of Environmental Health, Andy Weisbecker's article focuses on the elements of a class action lawsuit, certification of a class, and gives reasoning to the decision behind bringing individual lawsuits on behalf of victims of foodborne illness: Because individuals injured in a foodborne illness outbreak sustain varying degrees of injuries, a class action lawsuit typically is not the most effective - or fair - way to compensate victims for injuries sustained after eating unsafe food.
Alumni at the forefront of food poisoning litigation at Marler Clark
Lawyer, the Seattle University School of Law publication, featured Marler Clark in the summer 2007 issue of the magazine. In an Alumni Profile piece, Richard Farr focused on Marler Clark's food litigation, and the firm's ties to Seattle University. Partners Bill Marler and Bruce Clark both graduated from the Seattle University law school, as did associate Drew Falkenstein. Denis Stearns received his undergraduate degree from Seattle University, and Andy Weisbecker attended the university for his first three years of undergraduate study. Dave Babcock's wife, Catherine O'Neil, is a professor at the Seattle University law school.
Cryptosporidiosis: A Recreational Water Threat That Hasn't Gone Away
An article written by Bruce Clark for the Journal of Environmental Health that focuses on recreational water safety and the Cryptosporidiosis outbreak at the Seneca Lake State Park spraypark in 2005. He writes, "Given the poor public recognition of crypto symptoms, the likelihood that an infected person will be promptly diagnosed and will avoid behavior that could lead to transmission of the parasite is low". Thus, Cryptosporidiosis deserves significant consideration in the operation of any spray or water park.
A Legal History of Raw Milk in the United States
Marler Clark partner Andy Weisbecker began his article for the Journal of Environmental Health with a quote from Winston Churchill: "There is no finer investment for any community than putting milk into babies." He then continued with an account of milk safety and the laws and regulations that have evolved to protect consumers from becoming ill from drinking milk produced in unsanitary conditions. He finished by saying that although laws and regulations are in place, "The sale of raw milk continues to be legal, in some form or another, in almost half the country's states, and the attendant risk of raw milk–related outbreaks therefore also continues to be present."
Legal Implications of Zoonotic-Disease Outbreaks at Petting Zoos and Animal Exhibits
E. coli O157:H7 outbreaks associated with attendance at fairs and petting zoos garnered significant media attention in recent years after outbreaks were traced to fairs in Oregon, North Carolina, Texas, and Florida. In this article written by attorney Dave Babcock for the November, 2006 issue of the Journal of Environmental Health, he addresses questions regarding responsible parties when an E. coli O157:H7 or other zoonotic disease outbreak is associated with a petting zoo, animal exhibit, or fair.
Searching for the Source: One Family's Story
Marler Clark epidemiologist Patti Waller and Barbara Kowalcyk, whose son Kevin died after contracting an E. coli infection in 2001, co-wrote this article for the January/February 2006 issue of the Journal of Environmental Health. It describes the Kowalcyk family's struggle to find the source of Kevin's illness and public health agencies' responses to Barbara's and Marler Clark's requests for information. The article's authors make it clear that not every person with a foodborne illness is so "lucky" to benefit from a multi-agency investigation into the source of their illness.
The Use of Public Health Documents in Foodborne-Illness Litigation
Attorney Dave Babcock authored this article, which appeared in the September, 2006 issue of the Journal of Environmental Health. How public health documents are used in foodborne illness litigation is a popular topic among environmental health and health department audiences, and this article provides background for all public health audiences. Mr. Babcock explains, "Environmental health data may be used in conjunction with epidemiologic data to establish the liability of a defendant."
Where's the Meat? The Need for Full Public Disclosure in Meat Recalls
Epidemiologist Patti Waller and attorney Denis Stearns wrote this column for the Journal of Environmental Health's June 2006 issue. The article focuses on the USDA's proposed rule on changing policy regarding public disclosure of the names of retail outlets that received potentially contaminated meat during a meat recall. The authors argue, "The revised recall policy proposed by USDA represents a commonsense approach that balances industry concerns and the public's right to know. It is thus deserving of widespread public support."
"A Future Uncertain: Food Irradiation from a Legal Perspective"
Marler Clark principal Denis Stearns wrote this chapter for the Institute of Food Technologists' book, Food Irradiation Research and Technology. The book's publisher states: Food Irradiation Research and Technology appeals to a broad readership: industry food scientists involved in the processing of meat and fish, fruits and vegetables; food microbiologists and radiation processing specialists; government and industry representatives involved in the import and export of food commodities; and industry, local, and state officials involved in educational efforts regarding food irradiation. The book was published in early 2006.
The Legal Implications of 'Toxic' Mold Exposure
A column written by Marler Clark associate Dave Babcock, which appeared in the April issue of the Journal of Environmental Health. The column includes a discussion of what toxic mold is, where exposures are occurring, legal claims resulting from mold contamination, and how to prevent mold exposure. It ends with practical information regarding toxic mold concerns: Landlords, building managers, and contractors should be aware of the risks presented by mold. Common sense would seem to dictate designing and constructing buildings with reduction of the likelihood of mold infiltration in mind. When mold does appear, early removal efforts are more likely to be the least costly in the long term. And, like homeowners, those responsible for the building and its inhabitants should know where they stand with respect to insurance coverage for mold-related claims.
Recouping the Costs of Outbreak Investigations and Prevention
Marler Clark associate attorney Dave Babcock wrote an article on whether Environmental Health Agencies and Health Departments should seek reimbursement for costs involved in outbreak investigations and prevention in an article for the January/February 2006 Journal of Environmental Health. In the article, he addresses two key issues that influence a public health agency's decision to seek reimbursement: Replenishing the agency's budget to continue its primary functions and the fear that seeking reimbursement could lead to decreased cooperation from the entity responsible for the outbreak.
Tracing Mad Cow Makes Litigation Unlikely
Marler Clark associate attorneys Dave Babcock and Drew Falkenstein co-authored an article on litigation resulting from bovine spongiform encephalopathy (mad cow) contamination for the March 2006 edition of the King County Bar Association's Bar Bulletin. The authors address the question of whether Mad Cow litigation is imminent head-on, stating, "It is difficult, at least in part due to the lengthy incubation period of the disease, to accurately assess the threat that BSE presents both in the U.S. and globally. Litigation to address individual cases of BSE is not imminent, and frankly can only come too late for the individual involved."
Immunities and Defenses for Allegedly Negligent Inspections
This article, written by Drew Falkenstein, appeared in the November, 2005 issue of the Journal of Environmental Health, and was a follow-up to his previous article, "An Introduction to Liability, Negligence, and All Things In Between." In this article, Drew addresses different states' laws regarding liability of environmental health professionals. He encourages environmental health professionals to find out whether your state is a "public-duty-doctrine" state or a pure "immunity" state. Then determine what exceptions apply.
An Introduction to Liability, Negligence, and All Things In Between
Marler Clark associate attorney Drew Falkenstein wrote this article for the Legal Briefs column in the September, 2005 Journal of Environmental Health. In it, he breaks down elements of a legal claim, including liability, negligence, duty, breach, and causation. He concludes, "For now you have, in nutshell form at least, the tools to assess virtually any situation in which a plaintiff files a negligence lawsuit against a defendant."
How to Keep Your Focus on Food Safety
Printed in the June/July 2005 issue of Food Safety Magazine, an article written by Bill Marler about the food industry's reaction to claims of foodborne illness after the "discovery" of a finger in a bowl of Wendy's chili, which was later found to have been placed in the chili by the woman who "found" it. He addresses the treatment of legitimate and non-legitimate claims, and tells food companies, "If a claim has merit, treat the customer fairly and learn from your error. This will help you keep your eye on your bottom line as opposed to looking for the finger in the chili."
Intentional Contamination: Liability for the Criminal Acts of Employees
One of a series of articles written by Denis Stearns that address the legal risks faced by manufacturers and distributors of food products. In this article about whether an employer is liable if an employee intentionally contaminates a product, Mr. Stearns explains that, "The employer is vicariously liable for the negligence of its employee while on the job, which is to say the law treats the employer as if it committed the act itself. Employees or agents are merely an extension of the employing company, and that acts of one are the acts of the other." The article appeared in an online newsletter for ID Access.
Product Distributor Liability: Some Different Scenarios
In an article for ID Access, Denis Stearns addresses liability for product distributors. He uses examples to further illustrate product distributor liability in practical scenarios such as in the case of when a distributor transports E. coli-contaminated lettuce or ground beef from a producer to a retailer. Central to his writing is the concept of a pass-through statute, of which he writes: What pass-through statutes do—when they work as intended—is help the plaintiff to find out the identity of the manufacturer in situations where that information might otherwise be hard to learn. The statute also protects non-manufacturing defendants avoid the cost and disruption of litigation, or at least most of it.
Indemnification, Contribution, and Allocation of Fault: Shifting the Blame
In one of a series of articles written by Denis Stearns that address the legal risks faced by manufacturers and distributors of food products, he writes about indemnification. Mr. Stearns explains how an indemnity agreement works: "In contract, it is because you have a written agreement from a manufacturer, or your supplier, to pay damages you incur as a result of the product, often including attorney fees. In equity, the right to recover is because the law deems it unfair for you to be liable for anything but your own negligence." The article appeared in an online newsletter for ID Access.
Chain of Distribution Liability: Tag, You're It
In one of a series of articles written by Denis Stearns that address the legal risks faced by manufacturers and distributors of food products, he explains chain of distribution liability in simple terms: If you had a role in the distribution of a defective product that ends up causing an injury, in half of the states you can be sued and held liable, even if you were nothing more than a conduit that moved an unopened box from Point-A to Point-B. The article appeared in an online newsletter for ID Access.
Product Liability: How It Turned Strict
Mr. Stearns addresses the concept of strict product liability in one of a series of articles for ID Access that address the legal risks faced by manufacturers and food distributors: "Under the new rule of strict liability, to hold a manufacturer liable, a person injured while using a product need only show that: (1) the product was defective; (2) it was used as intended; and (3) the defect caused the injury. The care used in the manufacture of the product is irrelevant to the determination of liability. The only issue in a product liability case is the defectiveness of the product, not the manufacturer's conduct in somehow allowing the defect to arise. As a result, proof of negligence is not required to recover damages."
Product Liability: A Brief History of Its Early Origins
Denis Stearns begins a discussion of product liability law with a brief explanation of its origins: Product liability law evolved from contract law, with the first decisions strongly favoring manufacturers. For a very long time, the "general rule" was that a manufacturer could not be sued, even for negligence, by someone with whom he had no contract. This was called the "rule of privity," and it was most famously set forth in an 1842 case that is bane of every first year law student's existence—Winterbottom v. Wright.
An Introduction to Product Liability Law
In Denis Stearns' first article for ID Access, he introduces readers to product liability law and the concepts behind it, beginning with: When a person is injured by a defective product that is unreasonably dangerous or unsafe, the injured person may have a claim or cause of action against the company that designed, manufactured, sold, distributed, leased, or furnished the product. In other words, the company may be liable to the person for his injuries and, as a result, may be required to pay for his damages. That, in short, is product liability; and, not surprisingly, the law that governs this kind of liability is referred to as product liability law.
Separating the Chaff from the Wheat: How to determine the strength of a foodborne illness claim
A paper presented at the May 2005 Defense Research Institute meeting on food liability written by Bill Marler and Dave Babcock. In the paper, Mr. Marler and Mr. Babcock use case studies to provide examples for how legitimate foodborne illness claims can be distinguished from illegitimate, or "bogus" claims. The attorneys provide information on tools used to evaluate claims at Marler Clark.
Food Claims and Litigation
Written by Bill Marler for the February, 2005 Food Safety In-Sight newsletter by Environ Health Associates, Inc, Bill's paper on foodborne illness and tort begins, "In a perfect food safety world, operators of food facilities would place the health of the consumer above all else. Science-based foodborne illness prevention systems would be in place from farm to table and government in partnership with industry would effectively monitor the food supply so unsafe conditions could be detected and quickly corrected. In a perfect world, food safety would be a given."
How to document a food poisoning case
In an article printed in the November, 2004 issue of Trial Magazine, written by Bill Marler and Dave Babcock, the attorneys explain: As a general rule, food poisoning cases are products liability cases.2 In other words, they are brought forward under the doctrine of strict liability. Since it does not require great legal argument to establish that a sandwich contaminated with Salmonella or some other pathogen is "defective" under statutory or common law definitions, the battle is fought in proving that the food your client consumed was in fact contaminated, and therefore the source of the client's injuries.
An E. coli O157:H7 Outbreak at a Chain Restaurant
"An E. coli O157:H7 Outbreak at a Chain Restaurant: A Case Study on How Easily Legal Liability Can Spread to a Franchisor" was written by Denis Stearns for the February 2004 Law Journal Newsletters' Franchising Business and Law Alert. Mr. Stearns concludes his article, "Insurance can be purchased to cover the risk of litigation, to hire attorneys, and to pay the cost of settlements and verdict. But there is no insurance against lost sales and a battered public perception—that is, except, to prevent the outbreak from occurring in the first place."
An Introduction to Product Liability Law
When a person is injured by a defective product that is unreasonably dangerous or unsafe, the injured person may have a claim or cause of action against the company that designed, manufactured, sold, distributed, leased, or furnished the product. In other words, the company may be liable to the person for his injuries and, as a result, may be required to pay for his damages. That, in short, is product liability; and, not surprisingly, the law that governs this kind of liability is referred to as product liability law.
Why Hepatitis A Vaccinations are Bad for (My) Business
This article by Denis Stearns appeared in the July/August 2002 issue of Food Quality Magazine. Mr. Stearns begins the article, "Let's be honest: as an attorney who makes a substantial portion of his living by filing lawsuits against restaurants, it's not in my financial interest to have the National Restaurant Association (NRA) change its position on mandatory hepatitis-A vaccinations for food-handlers," and goes on to argue that food handlers play a large part in hepatitis A outbreaks and that, if food handlers were vaccinated against hepatitis A, Marler Clark would represent fewer clients in claims against restaurants that are the source of hepatitis A outbreaks.
E. coli Lawsuit Results in a $4.75 Million Jury Award for Injured Children
"E. coli Lawsuit Results in a $4.75 Million Jury Award for Injured Children: A Case Study in How Not to Learn About Food Safety" is article about the Almquist, et al. v. Finley School District E. coli O157:H7 litigation, written by Denis Stearns. In the article, Mr. Stearns argues that, "Indeed, if there is but one lesson to be learned from this case it is that no foodservice operation should assume, like the School District here appeared to have done – that its procedures are safe and adequate simply because no one has ever been made seriously ill."
The Courage to Criticize
Denis Stearns wrote a commentary on foodborne illness outbreaks and the key role criticism from the right people could play in preventing them. In the commentary, he discusses responses to particular outbreaks, including the public outcry, then states, "Notably absent, however, was any outcry from the juice manufacturing industry, the National Restaurant Association, or the public health officials involved in the outbreak investigations. And while I am not surprised at industry silence, I continue to be surprised when health department officials allow themselves to act as apologists, leaping to a company's defense before an outbreak investigation has begun, or is completed."
Preempting Food Safety
Denis Stearns wrote, "Preempting Food Safety: An Examination of USDA Rulemaking and its E. coli O157:H7 Policy in Light of Estate of Kriefall ex rel. Kriefall v. Excel Corporation" for the Fall 2005 issue of the Journal of Food Law and Policy. The article uses the Kriefall decision to examine USDA rulemaking, and briefly describes the development and implementation of the USDA E. coli O157:H7 policy as a reaction to the 1993 Jack in the Box E. coli outbreak as well as the USDA's move to a science-based HACCP model.
Commentary on USDA rule-making process
In his 2002 commentary for the July/August edition of Food Protection Report, Denis Stearns writes about the Federal Meat Inspection Act and USDA's rule-making process. In the commentary, titled, "USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service Should Say What It Means, Mean What It Says—and Say It Clearly," he concludes, "[I]f federal law is going to sweep aside state law, then let it do so solely in the interest of the public health, and not as a way for the meat industry to avoid responsibility for the sale and distribution of unsafe products."

Yarnell Fire Chief Jim Koile Quits
Yarnell Fire Chief Jim Koile announced at a fire board meeting yesterday that he's quitting.
Some local residents pointed the finger at Koile after the Yarnell Hill Fire destroyed many homes in the small community. Local residents have also been raising the issue of Koile's 1974 manslaughter conviction, especially after this deadly fire.

-Prescott Fire Chief Dan Fraijo Shown the Door
Koile was in a similar situation with citizen complaints back in 2001, but not after a fire such as the Yarnell Hill Fire. Koile had been the chief of the Williamson Valley Volunteer Fire Department, and citizens alleged mismanagement, and brought up his manslaughter conviction.

Prescott's Daily Courier pulled the court records in 2001, as Koile -- who was a Mesa firefighter back in the early '70s -- was in charge of watching his then-girlfriend's 3-year-old daughter.
From the Courier:
Koile said he spanked and pushed his live-in girlfriend's 3-year-old daughter, and she accidentally hit her head on the edge of her crib, according to court records.
He said he tried mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and cardiac massage but thought Carla Kay Dahlstedt had died and, panicking, he buried her in the desert.
So, when his girlfriend came home, Koile explained that someone must have abducted her. Six hours later, after police questioning, Koile admitted that he buried the girl in the desert, according to the report.
Police dug up the child -- alive.
The girl died at a hospital the next day from brain damage, according to the report.
Koile ended up getting a sentence of probation for involuntary manslaughter, and five years later, a judge granted Koile's request to have the conviction dismissed.
Sure enough, the Courier reiterated this information in a story on Sunday, and Koile resigned two days later.
In a letter to the fire board obtained by New Times, one citizen who's leading the charge against Koile noted this manslaughter conviction, as well as other complaints about Koile's history, and asked Koile to leave in order to prevent a recall election of the entire fire board.
Yarnell residents have alleged that Koile also failed to continue a program to manage the "fuels abatement program" which was operated by the previous chief, which could have helped protect the small town from the Yarnell Hill Fire.
That citizen's letter to the fire board has also blamed Koile for not putting out the fire when it was small.
"On Friday afternoon (June 28th) when it would have been easy to put the fire out with either a couple of small aircraft drops OR six men/women with shovels--he simply was not around to put up a fight for Yarnell. Had he done so, we might not have had the tragedy of the '19' on Sunday," the letter states.
According to a Courier article on Koile's resignation, he'll keep the post until November 30. The only reasoning he submitted was that he "recognize[s] that the fire department and community of Yarnell are now at a point where a younger fire chief with high energy and progressive ideas is required."

Never give up and do your best
By : Kirsten York
Discovery Middle School wants everybody to do there best so they succeed, that could be in many different things,but first they have to succeed and do their best in school.
Student of the month means a lot to this school since it preservers people to do there best and try to get on the board of student of the month. Because of that board people do there best for each month and preserver to reach that goal.
I know that people work hard to do there best and they work hard in school to get far in life. I know that because I was one of the recipients for November, I worked hard and got it with everyone else.
I found out that out of nine people seven people said that they work harder, one out of nine people said that they don't work harder, and one out of nine people said that they are going to start working harder. That means that at least some people are trying there best and are doing the right thing to get student of the month.
Honoring students for there hard work can change how they think about things, and because of that they might get farther in life because of that.

Petes PC Repairs is an IT service provider.
are you using remote collectors or are there different email addresses for different states (what im asking is there a defining attribute that distinguishes the type of call/email from utah and colorado ) if so set up tickets rules to forward the concerned emails to the correct party
Dec 6, 2010 at 4:23 UTC
The users and workstations are in separate OU's and Groups in active directory, and in different subnets, but that is about it...

create a custom attribute say site or department
then create a ticket rule that when the attribute is set it gets assigned to the right admin

Jimmy Graham couldn't hang on, and neither could his New Orleans Saints to a potential playoff berth.
Graham was stripped of a potential touchdown late in the third quarter of Sunday afternoon's 30-14 loss to Atlanta, a score which could have allowed the Saints to rally from a dismal three quarters of play at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in an NFC South showdown full of playoff implications.
Instead, officials refused to change the call, allowing Kemal Ishmael's strip of Graham inside the 1-yard line to stand.
"After reviewing the play... the ruling on the field stands."
From Mike Pereira, rules analyst at FOX Sports and former vice president of officiating for the NFL via Twitter: "Re Graham play: Again, I thought there was enough to overturn. But if there's any element of doubt, the stats show calls won't be overturned."
Drew Brees' second interception, a pass thrown behind Nick Toon with less than three minutes remaining, sealed the loss. Robert McClain made the play for Atlanta, setting up Matt Bryant's 32-yard field goal.
Time expired as Osi Umenyiora scored after recovering a sack-fumble of Brees on the game's final play from scrimmage.
The Saints, which end their regular season next Sunday at Tampa Bay, lost their five consecutive home game for the first time since 1980.
On an afternoon where neither offense looked crisp, it was the Falcons (6-9) which did enough to take the lead in the division, thanks to a sweep of the Saints (6-9) in 2014.
Matt Ryan threw for 322 yards and one score, Matt Bryant converted two field goals (44, 50) and in the third quarter, Devonta Freeman's 31-yard TD run through the middle of the Saints defense created a 20-7 deficit.
Graham's 13-yard reception offered the Saints a chance to rebound from their previous blunders. But the Falcons defense, ranked last in the NFL, played far above the rating, sacking Drew Brees five times, rushing and knocking him to the turf many more times.
Brees finished with 309 yards on 29-of-46 passing.
Atlanta entered Sunday with a league-low 16 sacks.
With 5:48 left, Graham scored on a four-yard TD, trimming Atlanta's lead to 20-14, but the Saints were short on scores and time.
Jalen Saunders gave the Saints plenty of momentum to start Sunday's game, returning the opening kickoff 99 yards. On the next play, Mark Ingram scored from one yard.
The Saints would not score again until the fourth quarter.
Still, it wasn't enough. Too little, way too much Falcons.

Magpies duo to learn from gaffe
By Tom Adams
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Pavel Srnicek and Peter Ramage are keen to move on from their error against Bolton.
Pavel Srnicek and Peter Ramage have both stated their desire to move on and learn from the horrible blunder which contributed to Newcastle's 2-1 defeat to Bolton on Boxing Day.
The Magpies were winning 1-0 when Ramage headed back to his keeper whilst unaware that Srnicek had already advanced out of his goal, and saw the ball cross the line for a comical own goal.
Nicolas Anelka went on to compound the North East club's misery with the winning goal, and Newcastle boss Glenn Roeder claimed after the game that Ramage had been pushed by Bolton skipper Kevin Nolan at the crucial moment.
Whilst Ramage admits he was unaware of any push from Nolan, the 23-year-old defender did signal his desire to put the gaffe behind him and learn from his costly error.
"Football is all about learning and I am still a young man learning my trade. And not only will I learn from this but this will make me stronger," Ramage told The Evening Chronicle.
"The ball came over and I turned to head it back to Pavel Srnicek not realising that he had already come out.
"People are now telling me that the TV replays are showing that I was pushed in the back by Kevin Nolan, but I have to be honest and say I wasn't really aware of this.
"And while hindsight is a wonderful thing, I know I should have dealt with the situation a lot better."
The humiliating turn of events wrecked Srnicek's first Newcastle start since 1997 after returning to the club, and the Czech shot-stopper was also keen to put the incident behind him following the defeat.
"I didn't call for the ball because I was waiting for Rammy to do something," explained Srnicek.
"Then in the end I thought I'd try to get it but it ended up going on. It was a mistake between us and we have to move on from it and learn from it."

Just breathe: why meditation is going mainstream
Chavie Lieber, Racked.com: Cruise through the posh Los Angeles neighborhood of Brentwood, and you'll drive past all the hot spots: the local farmers' market, a smattering of spinning studios, a boutique coffee shop—and a new trendy meditation spot, Unplug.
Four months ago former Glamour editor Suze Yalof Schwartz opened Unplug, imagining it as a "modern meditation studio" where guided classes are easy, soothing and accessible.
"I want Unplug to be the Drybar of meditation," Yalof Schwartz told Racked. "There needs to be a place to just pop in and meditate, not take eight-week programs that cost $1400 and are in the middle of nowhere." …

Uniquely designed Jabra STONE2 'Talks' to Users; offers complete Hands-free control
At S$198, Jabra's newest Bluetooth standout wins 'Best of Innovations' award at CES 2011 in Las Vegas
With a unique form factor unmatched by any other headset in the worldwide market, Jabra STONE2 makes its Singapore debut at the IT Show 2011 on 10 - 13 March, Suntec Singapore when it will retail for S$198 exclusively at Booth 6731 (Level 6) and Booth 8236 (Level 4). Post-IT Show, Jabra STONE2 will be available at Challenger, EpiCentre, Nubox stores and other authorized Jabra resellers for S$198 (RRP).
Building on the revolutionary design and shape of the successful Stone – a curved, flexible headset that comes together with its round, portable charger and turns into a fascinating 'stone' that fits into the palm of your hand – the Jabra STONE2 sports a new leather finish and packs in new advanced features that bring new levels of usability to Bluetooth headsets. Jonathan Tang, Jabra's regional managing director said, "With the first Jabra Stone, we set out to create a headset so different and unique in look and design that it would appeal to all types of users. The STONE2 takes it a step further with an innovative Voice System, multimedia capabilities and optimization with a wide variety of voice enabled applications."
Voice Control "Call Pizza"
Taking the concept of hands-free communication to a new level, Jabra Stone2 features an innovative all-new Voice-Control System that allows users to make outgoing calls and answer / reject incoming calls by simply saying so. All you have to say, "Call Taxi", "Answer", "Ignore".
Voice Guidance tells you Caller's Name
With Voice Guidance feature, users can hear the name of the incoming caller being said through the headset, for e.g "Mum Cell" or David Tan Work", exactly how you have the caller programmed into your phone. If the caller's number isn't saved to your phone, or if your phone does not support PBAP (phonebook access profile), then the voice reads out the phone number.
Voice Guidance also provides audio alerts like "Connected"
Get Your Messages Read Out to You
Yet another new feature of Stone2 is its support for Jabra's third-party apps at the Jabra World of Apps portal. Users have a choice of top worldwide apps that have been rigorously tested to work with Jabra's hands-free devices. Find the best apps that suit your lifestyle needs, including voice-enabled music and entertainment apps and voice-to text apps to:
• Read email messages
• Update status on social networking sites (Twitter, Facebook)
• Notify users of missed calls etc
Choose the app that fits your needs (and not let the app choose you), mobile software and headset-friendly apps at the portal include Vlingo, Voice on the Go, Voice Assist, Dial2Do, slydial Voice Messaging, mVoice Productivity and many others.
Eargels for Personalised Fit
With a shape like no other headset on the market, the Jabra STONE2 elegantly wraps behind the ear to combine style and functionality, and amazingly-free of the standard on-face microphone. With a new and improved fit, the STONE2 includes a choice of four "comfort-tested"
Key features and specifications of the Jabra STONE2 include:
• Effortlessly connect two Bluetooth enabled devices at the same time with advanced MultiuseTM capabilities

I love to develop relationships with clients, earn their trust and help them through one of the most important events of their lives. Talk about rewarding!
In college, I studied journalism and Spanish and then worked in commercial radio sales for many years before joining the Commerce Home Mortgage team. One of the highlights of my job is that I get to help my clients save money. The specialized lending platform CHM offers allows me to help first time homeowners find the best deal on their new home loan and to help established homeowners refinance into a lower rate and thus improve their financial lives. My colleagues are experienced professionals who help ensure our clients close on time and feel completely satisfied. My intention is to build long-term relationships with my clients.
When I am not working, I spend time with my husband and two adorable, active kids. I sing in two rock cover bands too. Balancing my love for the mortgage industry with my love for my family and music keeps me busy and content.
Stephanie works as a Mortgage Advisor out of our Berkeley, CA, office. A friend recommended Commerce Home Mortgage to Stephanie, and once she met us, she couldn't resist joining the team.
We chatted with Stephanie one afternoon between helping clients fulfill their dreams, running errands with the kids and band practice. You read that correctly – band practice.
CHM: What's your position at CHM? I'm a mortgage advisor. I help people who want to become homeowners secure their loans. I also help current homeowners buy a second home or refinance their existing mortgage.
CHM: What got you interested in the home mortgage business? I'd worked in sales in radio and tech my whole career. I had lots of friends and family in the mortgage business. I watched them do the work and I loved the pace and how things were always changing. They were also always meeting new people and helping them through one of the most difficult transactions of their lives. I found that to be very interesting. I love meeting people.
Each transaction is different. It's about the furthest from a stagnant, repetitive job that you can get. I'm a mother and a wife, and working as a mortgage advisor gives me lots of flexibility. I have 2 kids. My daughter's eleven and my son's seven. She's a swimmer and he's a soccer player. I get to spend time with them and still have an exciting career.
CHM: How did you come to work for Commerce Home Mortgage? A friend of mine told me about Commerce. After meeting with Commerce I knew there was no other place for me. The company has a fantastic reputation and I loved the people. We all really support each other. Everyone here has helped me learn more about the business. They're always there for me and they help me get it done. It's such a pleasure to work in a tight real estate company. It's like having a second family. I recently had a show, and my office mates, including my boss, his wife, and even the company president came to the show.
CHM: What kind of show? I sing in three different cover bands. The band they came to see is called Crisis. All of the band members met at a karaoke party. We got to talking and discovered that we all loved music. We're all of a certain age, so do the math and you'll understand why we picked Crisis for the name. We play everything from school fairs to corporate events. It's a great creative outlet and helps keep me well rounded.
I also sing in the Tightwad Hill Band. All of the members went to Cal (University of California, Berkeley). Tightwad Hill is the nickname for the hill that overlooks the California Memorial Stadium. People can sit there and watch games for free. The five awesome musicians heard me sing and asked me to join them. We play harder rock in the bar scene in the East Bay and sometimes San Francisco. Those crowds are so much fun.
CHM: Does being a musician influence your work at Commerce? Being in a band is about commitment. When you're helping people get a loan, you commit to them. It's the same being on stage. You commit to the music and engage with the crowd. It's ultimately about the people.
It's also about being true to myself. I am who I am all of the time. I'm a very engaged person, That's true when I'm with my family and it's the same when I'm helping people secure a loan.
CHM: We're happy that Stephanie brought her act to Commerce Home Mortgage. We can hardly wait for the next show!

A dalek, Postman Pat, skittles, archery and no less than three bouncy castles were part of the fun at a fundraising event for Help for Heroes on Saturday.
Kings Park Road in Boscombe was closed for the event, and residents opened up their gardens to host some of the attractions, which included games for children, a barbecue, a display of classic cars and Harley motorcycles, miniature steam engines, cream teas and bouncy castles for young and old.
The event, which had a VE day theme, was organised by Gill Brewster, who has held the licence for general store Chaos Corner in Ashley Road for more than 30 years, with support from local businesses.
As well as raising money for charity she told the Echo the free event was about "giving something back to the community".
She added: "That's what it's all about. People keep saying the recession is over but a lot of people round here with children haven't got a lot of money. We thought the best way to do it was to have all the games and things free so they can enjoy themselves. It's a party for the community."
Gill's niece Jeanette Kendall, 32, a serving member of the RAF, is climbing Kilimanjaro for Help for Heroes next year and the money raised will go into her donation pot.

It was the last day of 6th grade. That means summer break and then transitioning into Junior High. I was nervous. Having only moved to the district two years before I was still trying to find my clique; oh, I know we shouldn't want to stick with just one group, but think back to that time in your life… if you didn't find a group, you were the lone sheep sitting in an open field, a target for the meanest predator. Good or bad, I just wanted to fit in.
So on the last day, with my t-shirt in hand, I changed from the cute outfit my mom approved and donned a shirt for everyone to sign.
Most of it was your typical yearbook nonsense; stay sweet, stay cool, see you next year. Nothing original, but I didn't care, I fit in and that's what I wanted. But then one of the guys, also new and wanting to fit in, wrote four bold letters across my back. As a way of staying out of trouble he wrote vertically under each letter;
From Us Crazy Kids
It's been nearly 30-years since that happened. I don't remember all the details, like whether I knew what he was writing or which teacher sent me to the office, but I do remember calling my mom. It was the first and last time I ever had to do that. I knew she'd feel obligated to tell my dad, but I was hoping maybe if I called her instead of him I could survive this.
Now, I say survive in jest… a little. My dad was tough. Not mean, not unfair. If anything he was nicer than most and administered punishment with a strict set of rules. I knew when and how I'd be disciplined because he was consistent. But this was out of my character and after two not so great academic years in my new school, I had no idea what would happen.
The one thing I did know was that workers were at our house putting in a pool. That night dad and I were to start filling it and prepping it for summer. It was supposed to be the best summer of my life. And I just ruined it by trying to fit in.
After the call was made, tears shed and the teacher explaining to my mom that I could just change into my original shirt instead of going home, I went back to the classroom. The other kids were outside for the last time on the playground as a class.
I remember standing next to Mrs. Noble's desk. Feeling so isolated and knowing that I had disappointed her I wouldn't look her in the eyes. But she insisted.
"Christine, this isn't you. I know you're struggling to fit in, but you weren't meant to fit in. You stand out because you are kinder than most. You laugh the hardest. And you are very intelligent. I've seen what you can do, so have others, but still you try to hide it. Junior High is harder. Kids will be meaner, and you'll have to make some choices that will determine many things. You are better than this. Don't allow others to pull you down."
With that said she pulled me into her arms and hugged me. The tears I shed before were nothing. This was uncontrollable sobbing and she let me. Patting my back and telling me it was okay. She was that teacher for me; the one who saw more and pushed me to be more. I appreciated her then, but more so now.
She told me to go outside and play, but I was changed. Recognizing the friendships I had formed were ill fated. That none of them really cared about me or the consequences I'd soon face. So I stood back. I looked at them and decided that I'd have to change.
But first the punishment.
When you're a preteen life is always tough. Having parents who set the bar high, that much tougher. My mom was the 'wait till your dad gets home' mom. So I waited. I looked out at the pool, the workers gone, their job completed, and watched as the water hose slowly filled it up. It was going to be the worst summer of my life.
Dad came home, he sent me to my room, and he went to his to cool off, he was angry. My punishment was dealt out, the crying done, now to find out what waited for me over the next 3- months until I could redeem myself with better grades and attitude.
We sat at the table, the three of us, and my dad started to cry. I thought the tears were because of his disappointment in me, so I cried with him. When he was in control of himself he said one word, "Jubilee". Mom looked at him strangely; I just waited for the explanation.
"When I sat in my room I prayed, as I always do before I discipline you. One word kept coming to me, Jubilee. I promised you that if you brought home a bad report card that you'd be grounded from the pool all summer. I've never gone back on my word. But God said Jubilee and I can't ignore that."
I still didn't understanding and he could read it on my face. So he asked if I knew what it meant.
"In a way yes, but mostly it means your debt is paid. When a jubilee took place land debts, slavery, all the stuff that ties us down are released and we can start fresh. That's what I'm giving you, a chance to start over. Your debt has been paid; now show us what you can do with it."
Mom and I both began to cry again, harder than before. This wasn't my dad. He was strict; he didn't go back on his word. As tough as he was though, that was one of the things I most appreciated about him, no surprises, no unexpected anger or yelling. He was steady and this… it was foreign.
I was afraid to ask, but my mom knew what I was thinking, "Does this mean no grounding?"
I looked at him with hesitant hope.
"No grounding. Get your bathing suit on and lets finish setting the pool up."
I think I sat there in shock for a long time, my mom too. Finally we all stood up and as a family hugged one another. I thanked my dad; he gave me that one armed hug with the follow up headlock and knuckles across the head to help release the tension. He's always been good about that.
No matter the punishment, afterwards he'd speak words of love and we'd laugh, because I knew what he did was out of love. I didn't always agree, and now as a mother I don't go about things the same way, but I never once doubted his or my mom's love.
And that day, it opened my eyes to the fact that I could start over even when things seemed bleak. When I knew all the problems around me were my own doing. I could wallow in self-pity or I could ask for a jubilee and start new. It's a promise God made us.
It's one we rarely allow ourselves, always hanging on to those past sins, reliving the mistakes, seeing only the bad in ourselves. He grants us a jubilee… and not just now and then, but always. We just have to accept the gift and start over.

Tata Motors is the owner of Jaguar Land Rover, which is one of the oldest British automobile manufacturers. The luxury car manufacturer plans to grow its base across the world. The British based manufacturer is contemplating a new facility in the United States of America.
Tata Motors had acquired Jaguar Land Rover for 1.3 billion pounds in 2008. Since then, the British manufacturer has witnessed a change in fortunes. They are riding a wave of success and want to move towards more profitable markets.
The United States of America is one of the biggest automobile markets across the globe. If Jaguar Land Rover can set up a factory in the U.S.A., they will be capable of summing up more profits, along with more vehicles sold in the world's second biggest market.
British automobile manufacturer will receive significant help from the state it chooses to build its facility. Jaguar Land Rover will build the facility from scratch. Their goal is to manufacture 2,00,000 vehicles annually from their U.S.A. facility.
Jaguar Land Rover will be inaugurating its latest facility in China soon. They have also signed a deal to build a facility in Brazil, the manufacturer is also looking at its other options. There is also a possibility of Jaguar Land Rover setting up a facility in Mexico.
The new facility in the United States of America will build the entire range of products. This will cut the taxes and duties that currently attract Jaguar Land Rover vehicles. The new facilities around the world are an attempt at achieving sales of one million vehicles within a decade.
