Discover the nightlife scene and famous areas to go out in Madrid, Granada, Salamanca and Cadiz. Check out the cities with the best nightlife in Spain.
If one thing characterizes the Spanish people it is their appetite for going out at any time. The millions of foreign tourists that visit our country (or "the bull's skin" as the locals call it) every year are surprised by the hours of Spanish cities; especially on the weekends when Spaniards normally wake up late, take naps after lunch and go out at midnight or even later…
The bars, restaurants and nightclubs are true social gatherings. There, Spaniards get together to chat and have fun while drinking beer, wine or after dinner drinks.
Check out the cities with the best nightlife in Spain.
Andalusia in southern Spain is where you will find the city of Cadiz. The city is famous for its mild climate, beautiful beaches and fun atmosphere.
As with most Spanish cities, going out in Cadiz usually starts in tapa bars where you can enjoy fresh fish and sherry wine. After eating, you can head towards the clubs located in the La Punta, where the nightlife peaks at 3 in the morning, although you can dance until the break of dawn.
A typical breakfast of Spanish churros before going home will hold you over so that you can sleep all morning long.
If you visit Cadiz in the summer time, check out the beach promenade where thousands of people enjoy the fresh sea breeze. Another good time to visit is during Carnival, when the city fills up with tourists who dance and sing throughout the streets 24 hours a day.
The capital of Spain, Madrid, never sleeps. It is a city to enjoy. Madrid is home to some of the best restaurants in Spain and the "oldest restaurant in the world" called Botin, located next to the Plaza Mayor. Don't miss out on the tapa bars serving delicious calamari baguette sandwiches. Attention: the cafes usually close around 10 pm!
In the Malasaña, Chueca or Callao-Gran Via areas you can a nightlife scene suitable to anyone's taste. In Malasaña, an emblematic zone from the Madrilenian groove scene, you can walk through neighborhoods that appear in Almodovar movies.
In the super famous Paseo de Castellana (Castilian Promenade) there are a wide range of popular bars with outside seating where you may run into someone famous.
Granada, in addition to Salamanca, is a university city known for its excellence. At nightfall the city fills with students, both Spanish and foreign, that swarm the bars to indulge in drinks and free tapas. Eating several tapas serves as dinner and is also a great way to enjoy the succulent Spanish gastronomy.
After dining the nightlife heats up around Granada where you can dance or attend live flamenco shows. Definitely check out the La Elvira, Campo de los Príncipes and Paseo de los Tristes neighborhoods.
Malaga is one of the most touristic cities in Spain and the birthplace of Antonio Banderas. The traditional restaurants and tapa bars in Malaga will give you a great introduction to traditional Andalusian cuisine.
Malaga is home to a large number of flamenco bars, an art not to be missed. Check out the Miguel de Cervantes Municipal Theatre, located behind Merced Plaza, where you can enjoy theater and dance by famous performers.
On Lazcano Street you will find the best nightlife in Malaga. Be warned; the dancing starts at about 1 am and lasts until the sun comes out.
The University, Plaza Mayor and Gran Via are the most emblematic areas of Salamanca. The city is small and one fourth of its 200,000 habitants are young people. Yes, 50,000 students fill up the nightclubs and bars of this beautiful city. The people here describe the city as being "a bar, a church, another bar, another church…"
Around midnight, after enjoying tapas in Van Dyck or around the Plaza Mayor, people head to the Plaza to meet up with others under the clock. The city starts to fill with movement as groups of friends head off to their favorite bars to get the party started.
The Gran Via area is full of some of the oldest disco bars in Salamanca that feature Spanish music. On Iscar Peyra Street, one of the most popular in the city, some of the best nightclubs are located just meters from the Plaza Mayor.
These are just some of the examples of the active Spanish nightlife scene, where you can find a good time on just about any corner.

So yesterday was an exciting day for all of us at Adventure Alternative. Our MD, founder and captain of the AA ship, Gavin Bate, was sat in a packed audience of over 500 tourism professionals, media, ministers and officials. The room was hot and he looked slightly uncomfortable in a shirt (he's more at ease in a down jacket on a snowy knife edge ridge), the room lights dulled and the stage lights ignited as the compare announced the
These awards are highly regarded within the industry and are competed for globally. We were over the moon when Adventure Alternative made the shortlist in the 'Best for Poverty Reduction' catagory, but we didn't expect to win…… But we did! Suddenly Gavin, who prefers the quiet, solitude of the mountains found himself on a stage with a million watts glaring at him, the music pumping and his mug shot on the big screen. Meanwhile in the various AA offices around the globe whoops and cheers went up as the @RTAwards twitter feed announced the winner as Adventure Alternative!
What the Judges wanted: The Best for poverty reduction category is one of the longest standing categories of the World Responsible Tourism Awards. With this category we are looking for holiday providers that offer memorable experiences that support their activities in seeking to reduce and prevent poverty in a local community.
Judges reason for winning: "We have previously awarded Gavin Bate, when he won Best Personal Contribution in 2009, but the judges felt that the extent to which he has expanded the operation of Adventure Alternative and increased the flow of benefits to the local communities with which the company works, deserved further recognition. Over twenty years, Adventure Alternative has developed companies in Kenya, Nepal, Tanzania, Malaysia, Morocco and Russia using responsible tourism and equitable contracts to create sustainable livelihoods and help people out of poverty. The judges were impressed by the wealth of detail that Adventure Alternative provided on their impacts and the way in which it is building self-reliant locally owned businesses".
Gavin Bate, the founder of Adventure Alternative, is a man who climbs mountains. And moves them too, by knowing clearly what he wants to achieve in tourism. Which is to take tourists into extraordinary, rural mountain landscapes in developing countries and, in doing so, pull the local people who host them out of poverty and into wealth creation.
For all of us in the AA family, whether in the offices in Portstewart, London, Nairobi, Moshi, Kathmandu, Moscow, Kota Kinabalu or working out in the field or on treks or peaks it was great to be given this recognition. Our business model is purposely designed so that tourism positively impacts on everyone involved. Sustainable and reponsible tourism is our DNA and it's great that other people outside of the company / our clients also appreciate and recognise the difference that can be made if the right approach is taken.
And today, heavy heads in the office? No, we're busy as usual planning more trips and we hope to launch our new website very soon with even more stories about the wonderful people and communities with whom we work around the globe!

McAnuff wants Royal progress
Jobi McAnuff has urged Reading to emulate the template for survival in the Premier League produced by Stoke.
Last Updated: 15/08/12 4:00pm
Jobi McAnuff has urged Reading to emulate the template for survival in the Premier League as set by Stoke City.
Stoke and Reading were both promoted in 2008 but whereas the Potters have maintained their top-flight status ever since, the Royals had to endure a spell in the Championship.
Under Tony Pulis' guidance, Stoke are now an established Premier League club who continue to develop.
And it is an approach the former Jamaica international concedes he admires.
He said: "The way they have done it has been a gradual approach.
"I think if you look at them now to when they came up it is chalk and cheese, but I think if you break that down in the seasons gone past it has been a gradual process and they have added bit by bit.
"You now look at the players they are attracting and they are an established Premier League team now.
"Going up into the Premier League that is a model we can look at, hopefully achieve what they have done and go beyond that. I'm sure that is the aim with everyone at the club."
Meanwhile, Reading's new owner Anton Zingarevich has praised the work of Chairman Sir John Madejski for the level of service he has given the club over the years.
Zingarevich completed a takeover in May and has promised to improve Reading's facilities as they try to establish themselves as a Premier League outfit.
"He has done great things for the club," Zingarevich told the club's official website.
"He is the reason for much of the club's success and I have a lot of respect for him. He understands what I'm trying to do, I enjoy working with him and we have a good relationship.
"Because I'm not going to be there all of the time, it's important to still have someone there who is so dedicated."

Bob Mathis, Rafer Johnson and Bruce Jenner are known to previousgenerations as great decathletes.
But what about Dale Ford and Anai Ramirez?
While the first three gained fame by winning Olympic gold medals, the other two are returning medalists in the Academic Decathlon, which began Saturday and continues next Saturday at Corona High School.
Ford, who earned two medals for Great Oak High School last year, and Ramirez, who medaled for Elsinore High, joined their teams in competition with 15 other schools seeking the Riverside County championship.
Other Southwest County schools in the competition are Lakeside, Temecula Prep, Temecula Valley and Temescal Canyon.
In the Academic Decathlon, which is sponsored by the Riverside County Office of Education, high school students compete as individuals and as team members in a series of 10 academic tests and demonstrations.
The local schools are gunning for Hemet High, which has won the competition nine years in a row.
Elsinore had the best showing of local schools last year, finishing fourth out of 22 teams. Great Oak was fifth, Temecula Valley 14th, Temecula Prep 15th and Temescal Canyon 17th.
The theme of this year's competition is the Civil War. Students will give a speech on the era and then answer Civil War-related questions in subjects such as mathematics, economics, art, music, language/literature and science.
Decathletes must also write an essay, participate in a panel interview and give prepared and impromptu speeches. The competition ends with the Super Quiz, a game show-style event.
Academic Decathlon is not a competition for the students with the highest grade-point average on campus, but one where teams field three students each with A, B and C averages.
The Elsinore program is competing for the third time.
"We're hoping for improvement," Elsinore coach Ryan Klopp said. "We know it's going to be a tough task to knock off Hemet. We understand being relatively new kids on the block we have our challenges."
Junior Anelah McGinness said she won't be disappointed, no matter what the outcome.
"Naturally, we want to win," she said. "(But if we don't) I wouldn't feel it was a great waste of time. I learned some interesting things."
Returning senior Brandon Gamboa said the team is working harder this year.
"Last year, we didn't meet after school as often," he said. "This year, it's every single day and we study individually at home. Hopefully it will all pay off."
The Elsinore students have been studying together since school started in August. For the last month, they have met up to 2 1/2 hours per day after school and at lunch.
The team members say the hard work is worth it.
"I enjoyed finding other people who enjoy learning as well," said Ramirez, a senior. "And we can have fun."
Klopp, who competed in Academic Decathlon when he was in high school, brought the program to Elsinore when he joined the staff two years ago.
"I felt any self-respecting high school in Riverside County should have an Academic Decathlon team," Klopp said. "Also, having competed myself, I have a passion for it.
"We're still kind of building our program. We're looking a couple years down the road. We know what direction we want to go."
Great Oak will also compete for the third time.
Coach Don Skaggs said his students have been studying since May, when they learned about the topic.
Like Klopp, Skaggs competed in the event in high school.
He said camaraderie among teammates is the best benefit.
"These kids become good friends," Skaggs said. "They quiz each other. They like the challenge. They're a pretty polished group of kids.
"My kids are pretty confident they can give Hemet a run for the money this year."

[First question after brief opening announcement]
QUESTION: Jamie, there are credible reports of a severe round-up of Baha'is in Iran. While you're looking for moderation in Tehran - we're told that 32 professors and teachers, who already were barred from teaching in universities and schools, but were teaching their own people, have been rounded up in 14 cities. And you know sometimes that isn't the end of it - they sometimes get killed. And I wonder if you could confirm that and if there's anything the State Department's got to say on this subject?
MR. RUBIN: Yes. It's not only the round-up, but the imminent prospect of a death sentence that concerns us. We understand that two individuals of the Baha'i faith currently in prison in the Iranian province of Khorasan have had their death sentences confirmed and are in imminent danger of execution for nothing else than the free exercise of their religion.
The two individuals were arrested in October 1997 for violating a ban on religious gatherings. The United States urges the government of Iran to exercise restraint and not to carry out these death sentences.
As you know, in July the United States strongly condemned the Iranian Government's execution of a Baha'i charged with converting a Muslim to the Baha'i faith. As you indicated in your question, we are also aware of other recent official acts of persecution against the Baha'i, including the arrest of 32 faculty members of the university operated by the Baha'i community, as the Islamic republic does not allow Baha'i's to enroll in public universities.
We have urged publicly, and will continue to urge publicly, that the government of Iran protect members of the Baha'i faith and we have also urged the government of Iran to ease restrictions on the practice of religion and to recognize and uphold the fundamental human right to freedom of conscience and belief. We've urged that in the past and we are urging it again today.

Jobs for Immigrants at Oslo University
I found an interesting statement on an Oslo University job ad today:
The University of Oslo has a goal of recruiting more women in academic positions.
Women are encouraged to apply. The University of Oslo also has a goal of recruiting more immigrants to Norway in academic positions. Immigrants are encouraged to apply.
This was in English, plain to see for all immigrants (especially immigrant women). So if you are looking to live and work in Norway and have an academic background this is your lucky day! However, I wouldn't trust the ads 'resources':
For further information, see http://www.hf.uio.no/ifikk/english/
and PSBio¿s homepage, see http://www.hf.uio.no/ifikk/forskning/forskningsprosjekter/psbio/index.html
It's much better to go to the front page yourself and click on 'Vacant Positions'. Better still, you can click on this and I'll take you to the front page myself ;D
Good luck!

I recently obtained an MFA in Creative Writing and am actively seeking employment. I joined HubPages as a way to practice my craft, and hopefully make some extra income, too. I am writing today about other types of employment. I am currently searching for a faculty position at my local community colleges, but wonder if anyone can suggest other appropriate employment avenues? My school loans are rolling in! :-) Thanks for all the feedback! Sharon
sorry sharon
SLC - Get on Elance. It's a very selective job site. Not all writing jobs so you need to get on, pass a test about their policies, which is fairly easy if you've read them, then post your qualifications in your profile. Find your category, writing, and bid on jobs. Tell the poster what you can do for them, sell yourself, bid on the job. It's a very good site.
If you can tolerate teaching at lower grade levels, I hear there's usually a market for substitute teachers. Not a long-term career by any means, but might be a way to stave off some of those impending bills if you're in a bind. Best of luck!
You might be interested in either applying for a position here
Or perhaps enrolling
I'm not the best person to answer this question because I'm a writing major still working a part time job, but I hear that grant writers make a lot of money and proofreaders can qualify for full time positions with benefits. Other than that, try to finish that book you're probably writing and get it published.
Supply teaching is one option; another is to run your own creative writing course at, for example, a community centre.
Otherwise, why not just take any job for now - the first which comes along - just to get some money coming in, and keep on looking for something more to your tastes?

Skarner Build Guide by RoyalBram
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Skarner Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Hello and welcome to my first guide, I hope you learn something of this guide and have fun playing Skarner, The Crystal Vanguard.
Why These Runes?
Greater mark of strength gives additional Attack Damage wich makes you clear the jungle easier and faster.
Greater seal of resilience gives armor wich makes the monsters deal less dmg to you and makes it easier to clear the jungle.
Greater Glyph of Shielding gives Skarner some survivability.
Pros / Cons
- Clear jungle easy
- Gank and pick up kills at lanes with ur teammates
- Save your teammates if you have the chance
- Win the game ;P
- Fail in jungle and have to recall before u killed all 5
- Bad ganking and make ur teammates die
- Get the kill if you have the chance to save ur teammate
- Feed and lose the game
Skill Sequence
- Crystal Slash gives Skarner the possibility to slow, if you follow the first build you can keep spamming this skill and deal a lot of dmg. That's why I choose this skill to max first.
- Crystalline Exoskeleton is very important for Skarner, but not in early game, Crystalline Exoskeleton gives a shield, but the most important is the movement speed, if you are chasing someone, use this skill to max your speed and then slow them or pull them back with Impale.
- Fracture is great for recovering some hp and it can also deal a very nice amount of dmg of you have a lot of ap.
- Impale is the most awesome thing of Skarner, there are a lot of things you can do with it. Here are two:
1. If an enemy is near the turret and the turret isnt attacking minions yet, use Impale and pull him into the tower, while using Impale just spam ur Crystal Slash to slow him and make it impossible for him to get away.
2. If someone runs away with low health, use your Crystalline Exoskeleton to reach him. [For 2nd build] If you cant get Impale in range but your Hextech Gunblade is in ranged, use it to slow him and then use ur ulti, pull him back and spam Crystal Slash and the enemy should be dead.
My item choices of my 1st build is maybe a little bit strange, but it's really great at Skarner, if you look at the movement speed you can see that people cant beat your speed, but with your you will have a lot of speed, maybe you should think: Wtf, attack speed?
But if you take a look at the passive, you see that it would be awesome, you can spam your a lot and they will be slowed for a very long time.
How to jungle as Skarner
Jungle Route:
1. Blue Golems: Always start at the blue buff, get someone to pull the golems and spam your on the golems and if the golems start attacking you use your health potion, if it has 400/450 hp left use your smite.
2. Wolves: Your second group are the wolves, use your health pot and start attacking, so you won't get health problems at the rest of the jungle groups.
3. Ghouls: Your third group are the ghouls, use your shield before you start the fight and first kill the blue ghoul, the rest will almost die by your .
4. Red Lizards: Your fifth group is the Red lizard, it's like the same as the blue, use your shield, attack, use ur health pot and smite at 500 hp.
5. Big golems: The big golems is your last group, they deal a lot of dmg so watch out and use ur shield + potion to survive.
after u got all 5, recall and buy ur stuff and then go kill some more groups, if there are no groups left, go gank lanes, finish targets there and try to get a tower down, after ur done ganking, go back jungling, in mid game, ur supposed to be ganking about whole the time, or stick together as a team to start the teamfights. Just clear the jungle if you have time and have fun playing Skarner
In teamfights u focus on the champions that die fast and if they are running away pull them back with ur ulti. Always save ur teammates if u have the choice to take a kill or save ur teammates, ur off-tank so u always have to help to protect ur team.

Newcastle boss Alan Pardew believes it will be "impossible" for Chelsea to remain unbeaten in all four major competitions this season.
Jose Mourinho's men maintained their unbeaten start to the current campaign by brushing aside Tottenham at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night.
Ahead of Chelsea's visit to St James's Park on Saturday, Pardew hailed the quality of Mourinho's men but said they were bound to slip up sooner or later.
Pardew said: "I think it's difficult – obviously Arsenal have done it and Chelsea have come pretty close before.
"But not in all competitions – that is impossible and I think Jose has admitted that. But they're making a very good job of it at the moment.
"It's the best Chelsea team that I've ever seen and I've watched them since I was about 12 so I know them pretty well. I think Jose is pretty pleased with what he's got."
Pardew is hopeful captain Fabricio Coloccini will be able to make a return on Saturday after missing the best part of a month with a calf problem.
Coloccini has been training with his team-mates this week but Pardew must decide whether he is ready for what is likely to prove one of the toughest possible tests.
Pardew added: "Coloccini has been on the training ground but whether he's got enough fitness levels to play a game of this level I don't know.
"I can't really give a clear message. I'm not trying to hide behind anything but we have had recovery time and I can't really give a clear indication of how the players are."

"5pm appointment 24/3/2015 at GU MED with lovely..."
About: Royal Hallamshire Hospital Royal Hallamshire Hospital Sheffield S10 2JF
Posted via NHS Choices
Sophie,my fiancé, needed to replace her contraceptive implant so we made an appointment at GU MED. We're both very nervous when it comes to needles and blood but knew we wanted to do this so tried to be brave. When the member of staff in question fetched us from the waiting room we were immediately put at ease with their friendly manner and kind smile. They performed the procedure professionally and kept us destracted throughout. Unfortunately due to the anxiety of the situation neither of us caught the lovely person's name name! We really want to thank them again and let them know they are doing a fantastic job and helped us so much. A real credit to the royal hallamshire and the nhs in general. Thank you

Cameron Diaz wants Tom Courtenay to become young again
"(Tom Courteney) who I'm in love with. I need a little big of hocus-pocus magic voodoo to try and get him to be, like, 40 years younger. He's so charming, so much fun - he's got such a great spirit," Elle magazine quoted her as saying. The actress says she does not wish to see his earlier works as it will upset her.
"I don't want to (watch him in a film when he is younger) - my heart would break. Like, literally. I don't want to tease myself (with) what could have been," she said.

We are officially in love with mayonnaise face masks! In winter, it is like this fuzzy blanket that protects your skin from cracking, peeling and drying! And you would be too, if you knew what it can do for your skin!
Mayonnaise is primarily made of soybean oil, vinegar and egg, which together make for a boon to your skin. It stimulates turnover of skin cells, lifts dead skin layer, moisturises the skin and energises it. Plus, it has this uncanny ability to make the most boring of salads into a gastronomical work of art!
Let's understand the DIY mayonnaise face packs closely and learn exactly what they can do to our skin!
Mayonnaise packs a powerful punch of omega-3 and 6 fatty acids, which penetrate deep into the skin layers, repairing damaged skin cells and promoting the regeneration of new cells.
Furthermore, it contains a high ratio of vitamin A, vitamin K and proteins that promote the collagen fibre in skin, thereby improving elasticity and slowing down the skin's ageing process.
To top it all off, we figured, a jar of mayonnaise is an irredeemable part of the Indian kitchen, and it costs fraction of prices of an expensive spa.
So, here are six mayonnaise mask recipes that will make your skin smile!
Hydrating Mask
- Take 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise, leave it in the room temperature for 10 minutes to soften.
- Add a teaspoon of pure honey and mix until it blends well.
- Massage it onto your skin in a circular motion, and leave it on for another 15 minutes.
- Rinse the mayonnaise face mask with a light cleanser.
Facial Scrub
- Grind 1 tablespoon of oatmeal into a rough powder.
- Mix it with 1 tablespoon of sugar and an equal quantity of mayonnaise.
- Add a few drops of honey, whip it until you get a gritty paste.
- Dampen your facial skin and scrub it, using the concoction.
- Scrub for 5 minutes and then rinse it off with lukewarm water.
- If there is excess grease on the skin, blot it out with a tissue paper.
Black Spot Removing Mask
- Take a bowl, add 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon of honey and squeeze a few drops of lemon juice.
- Using a fork, stir it well, until you get a fine paste.
- Apply it evenly on your face, leaving area around your eyes.
- Let the DIY mayonnaise face pack sit for 15 to 20 minutes and then rinse it off with warm water.
- Follow it up by rinsing your face with cold water to close pores.
Skin Repairing Mask
- Take 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise, add 2 to 3 drops of wheatgerm oil and an equal amount of tea tree oil.
- Mix until all the ingredients combine to form a smooth paste.
- Apply a thin coat to your face and neck.
- Let it sit for 15 to 20 minutes and then scrub and rinse it clean with plain water.
Dry Skin Mask
- Take 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise, add ½ a teaspoon of baking soda and mix well.
- Cleanse your face and apply the mask.
- Let the mask get absorbed into the skin for at least 20 minutes, before you rinse it clean.
- To treat dry skin with mayonnaise, apply this mask not more than twice a week.
Skin Brightening Mask
- Mix a teaspoon of mayonnaise, with 1 teaspoon of carrot juice, and a few drops of almond oil.
- Beat it till it blends.
- Massage it to your skin and wait for 20 minutes.
- Scrub, rinse and pat dry.
- Avoid this mask if you have an oily skin!

Petty Enterprises is in discussions to merge its storied franchise with Gillett Evernham Motorsports, The Associated Press has learned.
Multiple people familiar with the talks told the AP on Thursday that the two teams were discussing a deal that would merge Petty's famed No. 43 Dodge with GEM to become a four-car operation. They requested anonymity because the negotiations are ongoing.
SI.com first reported that Petty Enterprises' top operation will not return in 2009. But David Zucker, CEO of Petty Enterprises, said the report was "not accurate."
He would not discuss a potential merger. "We're not going to comment on rumors and speculation," he said.
Petty, the team founded by seven-time series champion Richard Petty, has no full-time sponsorship lined up for next season. The team fields its flagship No. 43 for 2000 NASCAR champion Bobby Labonte and a second car that Chad McCumbee and Kyle Petty shared this season. Kyle Petty was expected to have a minimal role – if any – with the organization next season.
Robbie Loomis, vice president of Petty Enterprises, told the AP nothing has changed with the organization, and the team is continuing to talk to potential partners.
"We're in the same place we were a month ago, when everyone was saying we were going to merge with (Chip) Ganassi," Loomis said. "We're still talking to everybody and seeing what's out there."
Ganassi, which like Petty fields Dodges, instead merged with Chevrolet-backed Dale Earnhardt Inc. late last month.
Drew Brown, a spokesman for Gillett Evernham, said the team would not comment on any potential merger with another team. But it's no secret that majority owner George Gillett Jr. has canvassed the industry looking for a partner that would help his team expand to the NASCAR maximum four cars.
Gillett is believed to have had earlier discussions with Toyota teams Bill Davis Racing and Michael Waltrip Racing, as well as Ganassi. Earlier this year he terminated an agreement with Robby Gordon that would have brought Gordon into his organization as a fourth car.
As potential deals failed to develop, Gillett turned his attention to struggling Petty Enterprises. Richard Petty in June sold majority interest of the family-run team to private equity firm Boston Ventures, which assumed day-to-day control of the 60-year-old operation.
But the new leadership has yet to put Petty Enterprises on solid footing, largely because the economic crisis has made sponsorship very difficult to secure. Numerous teams have reduced their staffs since the Nov. 18 season finale, and Petty laid off 30 employees last month.
Now, if a merger with Gillett goes through, a team that has been in NASCAR since 1949 may cease to exist as it has been known.
"You think of Petty in NASCAR, and you think it's something that will always be together," said four-time series champion Jeff Gordon. "It's something that we all have to take a close look at because this is a big business now. It takes a great team effort on the track to be competitive, but it takes that same amount of effort in the marketing, in the business structure of how you run your team, operate your team and keep it funded and keep it strong.
"It's really unfortunate to see those guys have to do that. But it's a tough economic time."
Leaders from The Big Three automakers asked Congress on Thursday for a $34 billion rescue package they say they need to survive, and United Auto Worker union President Ron Gettelfinger warned that in the absence of action by Congress, General Motors could fold by the end of the month.
Chrysler, Ford and GM – along with Japanese automaker Toyota – heavily support race teams throughout NASCAR, and many team owners are worried about the ripple effects of a manufacturer pullback or pullout.
Kevin Harvick, who drives a Chevrolet for Richard Childress Racing and fields the make out of his own Kevin Harvick Inc., noted the entire industry is doing everything it can to show its support for the automakers.
"You don't see any other athletes in any sport caring about their futures the way this sport does," Harvick said.
Team owner Rick Hendrick, who just helped GM win its 32nd NASCAR manufacturer's championship, said he doesn't expect any manufacturers to end their involvement in the sport as long as they are in business.
"I think they'll always, as long as there's Chevrolet and GM, they'll be in the sport in some fashion," he said. "It works too well for them. It's part of their DNA. If it's a slowdown, we just have to adjust. When things pick up, they'll be back. It's too much of the fabric of Chevrolet and Ford."

Traveling through the Dark
William Stafford
In this eloquent poem, Stafford tells the story of a driver and decision. The driver, who is the speaker in the story, is driving a mountain road at night. He comes upon a dead deer. He stops and gets out of the car, confident that he should roll the animal over the edge of the cliff into the canyon in order to clear the road for other drivers; " It is usually best to roll them into the canyon: that road is narrow; to swerve might make more dead."
However, when he gets to the deer and touches it, he finds that there is an unborn fawn that is still alive; "... her side was warm; her fawn lay there waiting, alive, still, never to be born." The man then seems to have doubts about what is the right thing to do. Should he do what he first thought-push the deer over the cliff to avoid more accidents? Or is there any way to try and save the fawn? "Beside that mountain road I hesitated." He ultimately decides to push the doe off the cliff.
The message that this poem seems to bring is of the age-old conflict between nature and technology. This becomes apparent when Stafford brings in the part about the car. The reader understands that the car symbolizes man\'s world, technology.
Apparent also, is that the car seems to take on living characteristics; " The car aimed ahead its lowered parking lights; under the hood purred the steady engine..." even though the car also brought upon death for the animal.
Obvious too, is the deer symbolizing nature. The fact that a car killed the deer is perhaps Stafford\'s message... that technology will eventually triumph over nature. This is shown through the actions of the speaker. He clearly sympathizes with the fawn, but he clearly understands that a car killed the foe and her baby. Furthermore, he accepts that the safety of other drivers depend on the action that he ultimately takes... a decision which points at the side he believes he needs to protect at that moment... society and man, not nature.

The web.environment module provides a single function named driver() used to obtain an environment driver to setup or remove an environment.
In the context of a PythonWeb application the environment describes the structures in place in the storage medium and mainly relates to the web.auth and web.session modules.
Environments are best explained by an example. If you are using a database environment it means that you will be storing session and user information in a series of database tables. Before you can start using these tables they need to be created. The web.environment module provides tools to setup the database tables needed. If you were using a file environment, you may need to create the necessary directory structure.
Within an environment, applications can share session and user tables and access each other's information. For example if you had two applications named
guestbook and
news, you might want a user named
james to be able to access both of them without having to sign in to both applications. If the
guestbook and
news applications are both in the same environment this is easy since they both use the same session ID and user information.
Each environment has a name. In the context of a database environment the environment name is simply a string which is used to prepend all the environment tables so that multiple environments (with different names) can exist in the same database. This means that you can run all the PythonWeb environments you want to from the same database which is handy if your shared web hosting agreement only gives you access to one database. In the context of a file environment, the environment name might be the name of the directory holding the data files.

If somehow, someway you avoided the internet yesterday in all it's forms, then today you've learned that Khabib Nurmagomedov is no longer fighting Tony Ferguson tonight…
Yes. One of the most highly anticipated, lightweight fights in recent memory, isn't going down at UFC 209 after all. Early on Friday it was reported that Nurmagomedov was having a tough time making weight, and then, at around 11 AM / PT, we learned the devastating news that he wasn't medically cleared to fight.
The incident has renewed / heightened the debate around weight cutting, but Dana White believes that Nurmagomedov's team may have been able to save the fight. While speaking to Megan Olivi on FOX Sports 1, the UFC Presidente said this (quote via MMA Fighting):
"Basically, his team had decided to take him to just some random hospital here in Las Vegas instead of picking up the phone and calling our doctor and calling Brianna [Mattison], who runs all the medicals," White said. "They went rogue and went out and did their own thing. Had they done this thing the right way, the fight probably could have been saved."
We don't know what the thinking was here. Perhaps they thought with medical attention Khabib was going to be okay, and they didn't want Ferguson to know the lightweight had been to the hospital? Hard to say. White also reported that Nurmagomedov got to within six pounds of 155, before things went south. He also said that the undefeated fighter is going to be okay, which is great news.

It's notoriously difficult for Black women to secure funding for their startups. The process is so insular that Jessica O. Matthews is only the 13th Black woman to raise over a $1 million, according to TechCrunch.
This year she raised $7 million to grow her company, Uncharted Play. According to its website, the company develops "energy-generating play products that power and empower communities worldwide" with its patented micro-generator systems, MORE (motion-based, off-grid, renewable energy).
Its first product is Soccket, a soccer ball that transforms kinetic energy generated by playing with it to energy that can power electronics. The ball produces three hours of light for every hour of play. They've also launched Pulse, a jumprope that produces light.
Uncharted Play aims to work with consumer product companies to diversify the range of goods that utilize their proprietary technology.
Matthews feat is a remarkable one. DigitalUndivided's #ProjectDiane found that between 2012 and 2014 on 0.2% of venture capital funding went to Black women founders.
The 28-year-old says she wants to change the tech industry in more ways than one. At the Aspen Institute this year she explained, "I want to build the first billion dollar tech company in Harlem, and I want to reimagine what Harlem looks like."

Pope Francis' mandate
Mar 20, 2013
On February 11, Pope Benedict XVI announced that he would retire on the 28th. He said he did not have the energy required to reform the church or to clean up the Vatican Bank of its corruption. He apparently knew that a serious fight was looming, one which might take longer than he might live, and so he decided to let another take on the corrupt Cardinals and other church officials.
The Vatican Bank was formed in 1942 after the papacy decided to delete usury from its list of sins. It was accused of money laundering in the aftermath of World War II, as the Vatican provided passports and escape routes to South America for its Nazi and Fascist allies—for a fee, of course. By the 1970's a quasi-Masonic order known as P2 had virtually taken over the bank and was fully involved in laundering money for the mafia and other drug businesses. The Wikipedia reports:
"The Vatican Bank was Banco Amrosiano's main share-holder. Archbishop Paul Marcinkus, head of the IOR [Vatican Bank] from 1971 to 1989, was indicted in Italy in 1982 as an accessory in the $3.5 billion collapse of Banco Ambrosiano, one of the major post-war financial scandals. Banco Ambrosiano was accused of laundering drug money for the Sicilian Mafia, led by Filippo Barbagli, which used Propaganda Due("P2"), a Masonic lodge with alleged Mafia influences as an intermediary. P2 and its Worshipful Master, Licio Gelli, were also involved in financing right wing terror groups during the 1970s. Marcinkus was not tried in Italy, where courts ruled that he had diplomatic immunity. He retired to Sun City, Arizona (US), where he died on February 21, 2006.
"The Vatican Bank denied having legal responsibility for the Banco Ambrosiano's downfall but did acknowledge "moral involvement", and paid US$241 million (£169 million) to creditors."
As for Archishop Paul Marcinkus, who came from Chicago (Mafia City), he ran the Vatican Bank from 1971-1989. He only escaped a jail cell because he had diplomatic immunity that was granted by the Vatican itself.
Some years ago I read a number of books about the history of the Vatican Bank, including In God's Name, by David Yallop. The book gives a full history of the Banco Ambrosiano scandal and how it caused the Savings and Loan bank collapse in America during the early 1980's. Robert Calvi was later found hanged under Blackfriar Bridge, executed as a warning not to lose or steal Vatican money.
Ettore Gotti Tedeschi was the latest to head the Vatican Bank (2009-2012). He was forced to resign in May 2012 over allegations of money laundering. He only lasted three years at the bank. On June 5, 2012 his home was raided by Italian authorities.
"During the raid, the police found 47 binders that Ettori had archived as a memorial with compromising information about the Vatican "in case something happened to him." Some documents were titled "Internal Enemies" and had the names of politicians and powerful clergy; the banker thus decided to collaborate with the Italian judicial authorities, fearing for his life even as it also emerged from several of his telephone conversations intercepted.
"The memorial, therefore, is an annotated chronology of events that the banker has lived since becoming the President of the IOR 2009, until the last days of May 2012 those of his ouster. In the most controversial passages, turns of that troubled relationships that has seen him at the center of internal disputes, Gotti Tedeschi has attached to the memorial documents, emails, among the documents seized by the Public Prosecutor of Naples, and transferred to that of Rome there is also a correspondence between the banker and His Holiness, Pope Ratinzger.
"The Holy See responded that their sovereignty should be adequately assessed and respected by the Italian judicial authority and that the documents should be returned back to the Vatican.
These, then, are the bank scandals that the new pope is supposed to face in his house cleaning efforts. Apparently, Pope Benedict was unable or unwilling to do so. After all, the last pope to try to clean up the Vatican Bank lasted only 33 days. Pope John Paul I was poisoned the night before he was going to fire Paul Marcinkus back in 1978. On the evening before his death, the pope made the mistake of telling his Secretary of State, Cardinal Jean Villot, of what he intended to do the next day.
So Pope Francis certainly has a dangerous job. If he is sincere in his intention to clean up the bank, he will need prayer to protect him from ruthless church officials who have the most to lose. At this point I have been given no reason to doubt Francis' sincerity, by the way. The fact that he is a Jesuit—the first Jesuit Pope, in fact—might mean something, but I am willing to give him time to prove himself. Though I know a bit about the often-sordid history of the Jesuits, I also know that each Jesuit is an individual, and Jesuits are not all created equal.
Furthermore, I suspect that Pope Benedict resigned and Pope Francis was elected on account of our recent prayer campaign. I think we will see results from this. I suspect that the result will be that Pope Francis will try hard to reform the Vatican, but will fail in the end. In other words, I think Francis has good intentions, but the task will prove to be too difficult, because the corruption has been institutionalized for too long.
I also believe that Pope Francis is "Peter the Roman," the last of the popes on St. Malachy's list from the year 1140 A.D. Benedict was the 111th pope in St. Malachy's list. Malachy, the Archbishop of Armagh in Ireland 850 years ago had been given revelation of the next 111 popes, followed by "Peter the Roman," who was to be the last pope before the destruction of Rome itself.
Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio was elected to replace Benedict. Though he is from Argentina, his parents came from Italy. He took the name of Pope Francis, partly to identify with St. Francis of Assisi, and partly to identify with Francis Xavier, a co-founder of the Jesuit Order in 1534.
Francis of Assisi was born Giovanni di Pietro di Bernardone—or Giovanni, son of Peter of Bernardone. As the son of a wealthy silk merchant, young Giovanni (Peterson) later renounced his wealth and determined to live a life of poverty while helping the poor. It was not long before he said he received a vision and revelation, where God told him, "Francis, Francis, go and repair My house which, as you can see, is falling into ruins."
Apparently Pope Francis saw in this his own mandate to repair the Roman Church in the midst of its financial corruption and homosexual scandals. Yet his identification with St. Francis also identifies him as "son of Peter," and thus also Peter the Roman.
Francis Xavier was one of the co-founders of the Jesuit Order in 1534, of which Bergoglio is a long-time member. Xavier is known for posing Jesus' question, "What will it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his own soul?" The question chides those who think that money and wealth is the top priority in life. Many in the Roman church over the centuries have criticized the church for its focus upon money. The current problem in the Vatican Bank is just the latest manifestation of this idea.
If Pope Francis is Peter the Roman, then the prophecy of St. Malachy may give us some clues about his reign:
"In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church there will reign Peter the Roman, who will feed his flock amid many tribulations, after which the seven-hilled city will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people. The End."
This prophecy says nothing about this pope being either good or evil, but many Catholic writers have given him the title of "Antichrist." Perhaps it is because Malachy said he would reign "amid many tribulations." But if those tribulations are God's judgment upon Rome for its corruption, then the fault would lie with church officials in general, not with this pope per se. In years past, men have speculated and prophesied according to their belief about the meaning and cause of "tribulations." But now that we are here, we have only to look at the situation as it exists today to see what it means. No doubt the problem will become worse as time goes on, but right now we have the best picture ever available to any generation in the past.
Prophecy is fulfilled by history. If we are interested in understanding prophecy, we cannot avoid a study of history. It is crucial to study the prophetic stories in Scripture to see how the prophetic patterns were laid down in the past for future generations. Perhaps the most important key of all, insofar as the church is concerned, is to understand that King Saul was a type of the church during the Age of Pentecost (i.e., since Acts 2). The fact that Saul was crowned king on the day of "wheat harvest" (i.e., Pentecost) in 1 Samuel 12:17 tells us that his life prophesied of the institutional church in the Age of Pentecost.
The second most important type of the church was the high priest, Eli. While Saul was a type of the political church, Eli was the type of the church in its priestly function. Eli was unable to correct his sons, because they did not listen to him (1 Sam. 2:25); but Eli was faulted because he did not expel them from the priesthood on account of their corruption.
It was universally assumed in those days that God had called that line of priests forever, and that no matter how corrupt any of them might be, God would never rescind His calling. If anyone questioned their competency or their spirituality, they could always refer them to God's promise to their forefather, Phinehas, in Numbers 25:12 and 13,
12 Therefore, say, "Behold, I give him My covenant of peace; 13 and it shall be for him and his descendants after him, a covenant of a perpetual [olam] priesthood, because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the sons of Israel."
However, 300 years later, a man of God was sent to Eli to tell him that he was going to lose the priesthood in spite of God's promise to Phinehas. He said in 1 Samuel 2:30,
30 Therefore the Lord God of Israel declares, "I did indeed say that your house and the house of your father should walk before Me forever [ad olam]; but now the Lord declares, 'Far be it from Me—for those who honor Me I will honor, and those who despise Me will be lightly esteemed'."
In other words, God repudiated the promise to Phinehas. How could He do that? Did not Phinehas enjoy an everlasting covenant by which he and his descendants would be priests without end? Did God break His promise? The answer is found in the meaning of the Hebrew word olam. It does not mean perpetual (NASB), nor does it mean "everlasting" (KJV). It means an INDEFINITE period of time, not an INFINITE period of time. The Hebrew root word, alam, literally means "hidden, obscure," and when applied to time, it meant that the duration was not known.
Hence, when the promise was given to Phinehas, it was not known just how long his descendants would be priests. Yet when we come to the time of Samuel, we are suddenly told that this so-called "perpetual priesthood" was going to end. God did not break His promise. He only clarified what had previously been hidden or obscure. Even so, it took another three generations before Eli's grandson, Abiathar, was replaced by this new line of priests, beginning with Zadok (1 Kings 2:27, 35).
27 So Solomon dismissed Abiathar from being priest to the Lord, in order to fulfill the word of the Lord, which He had spoken concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh… 35… and the king appointed Zadok the priest in the place of Abiathar.
Both Eli and Saul had legitimate callings, but both were replaced. Eli was replaced by Zadok, who represents the Melchi-Zadok Order (Melchizedek). Saul was replaced by David, a man after God's own heart. We see the same happening in our own time, as the church rulers of the Pentecostal Age are replaced by the overcomers. These overcomers are "priests of God and of Christ and will reign with Him a thousand years" (Rev. 20:6).
In other words, they are both kings and priests. They are kings like David and priests like Zadok. They are, in essence, the Melchizedek Order of King-Priests.
Hence, the words of Jesus about Peter in Matthew 16:18 and 19, which are read at each papal coronation ceremony, reflects the same assumption that Saul and Eli believed—that their papal succession would never end. But Jesus did not say this. He said that the church would not be overcome by "hades." He said nothing about a perpetual priesthood of popes. The church is not the religious hierarchy, nor the organization in the Vatican. The church is the "congregation, or assembly." The New Testament word is ekklesia, which is the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew word kahal. Jesus said that He would always have an assembly of true believers on earth, and that the gates of hades would not prevail against them.
Jesus' words have been fulfilled, for there have been true believers in every generation. But we are drawing near to the day when both Saul and Eli will be replaced, on account of their corruption and refusal to be obedient to God. This corruption has been rampant in the church for many centuries. It did not just appear on the scene when the Vatican Bank was established in 1942. This is well known to all who study church history, including the countless Roman Catholic cardinals, archbishops, bishops, and other writers throughout the centuries, all of whom recorded these things.
The most natural reading of Malachy's prophecy about "Peter the Roman" shows that Rome will be destroyed at the end of the reign of Pope Francis. This is probably also the so-called "third secret of Fatima," which was supposed to be publicized in 1960, but Pope John XXIII did not do so, nor did his successors to this day. In the year 2000 Pope John Paul II revealed only a portion of this "secret." It seems that to reveal its contents would be detrimental to the Roman Church, so no one wants to reveal its contents.
For those who have studied the prophetic types of the Old Testament and are able to compare them with church history, it is plain that the Roman church will lose its power. It will be replaced by the Melchizedek Order, a new priesthood that is distinct from the Roman priesthood, and a new kingly authority that is empowered by the Feast of Tabernacles, as distinct from Pentecost.

Asking the right questions leads to best optical shutter design, writes Vincent's PasquarellaOctober 25, 2014
Electromechanical shutters are vital components in a broad spectrum of optical assemblies and systems. Shutter requirements are sometimes not apparent or considered during optical system design; other times, they need to be expanded upon after the launch of a system. Additionally, requirements may be added by the ultimate end user of a system that necessitate the implementation of a shutter into the design.
The perceived simple nature of a shutter (a device that opens and closes to gate light) leads to a tendency for its consideration to be left until later in the design cycle, or when a prerequisite of the design reveals a specified need. Such scenarios can potentially raise havoc with a product's development cycle, especially if the nature of the design requires significant time to accomplish lifetime qualification, prove new material interactions, and/or develop special test equipment for the customer's ongoing production qualification. For example, doing a lifetime-qualification test of a larger-aperture device such as a 65 mm shutter at a test rate of slightly greater than 1 Hz and a specified lifetime of 2.2 million operations can take more than 25 days to complete even for around-the-clock testing.
This article discusses a few cases where the system integrators/designers did not consider the need for a shutter device during the design pre-stages, resulting in project delays, costs adjustments, and additional testing. However, understanding certain criteria and asking a number of questions of the shutter-design team can help the design engineer to predict the need for a shutter early on and to allow for more consistent development and implementation.

Manufacturing Day Bells Rang in New YorkOctober 4, 2014
Big day of news for our industry yesterday, Manufacturing Day in America!
At an event to celebrate Manufacturing Day at New York Photonics member EMF Corporation in Ithaca, New York with their Congressman from New York's 23rd district (which includes Corning), Tom Reed, and OSA CEO Liz Rogan.
Congressman Reed deserved the wonderful welcome he got at EMF. Reed and Joe Kennedy, (D, MA) cosponsored the Reinvest in American Manufacturing & Innovation (RAMI) Bill that passed the House on September 15th. The bipartisan bill, supported by president Obama is also in the Senate (S. 1468) under the sponsorship of Senators Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Roy Blunt (R-MO), has the potential to create another few Manufacturing Institutes as part of the president's National Network of Manufacturing & Innovation.
Reed deserves to be recognized for his leadership, for his independent initiative, and last but certainly not least and especially significant for his constituents in the 23rd, his championing of manufacturing and manufacturing jobs. His critics can say what they will but this guy supports manufacturing. His questions at EMF showed insight into manufacturer's problems, from workforce development and schools, to tax credits and rare earths.
Thank you, Congressman Reed for your efforts on the behalf of Manufacturers in New York and across the nation.
While we were headed to Ithaca we heard about the forthcoming announcement that afternoon from the Department of Defense (well, actually from President Obama, celebrating Manufacturing himself in Princeton, Indiana) of $200M in funding for a National Manufacturing Institute in Photonics.
This announcement is the result of so much work by so many people that it is difficult to appreciate unless you have been part of the effort. Connect the dots:
- Optics & Photonics: Essential Technologies for Our Nation
- The National Photonics Initiative
- Congresswoman Louise Slaughter's vision and persistence
- Dozens of lobbying efforts by many dozens of individuals (including your own RRPC and New York Photonics representatives and board members) for a National Manufacturing and Innovation Institute in Photonics
These have also been the subjects, sequentially (in case you haven't noticed), of the last four New York Photonics annual meetings.
At her press conference in Rochester to announce the upcoming competition (with a great deal of collaboration, we hope) for a
National Institute of Photonics, Congresswoman Slaughter said,
Rochester is the world capital of optics and photonics, and that's why I've been fighting like heck for over two years to get this investment"
"What the world wants most in optics and photonics is already being developed right here in Rochester. We've got the manufacturing facilities, the research institutions, the highly-skilled workforce, and now we have the public-private investment opportunity that we need to get this industry to the next level. This manufacturing institute will have a transformative impact on our local economy that will help support the thousands of jobs we already have in this industry, and potentially bring many more to Rochester. Our region has been leading the world in optics and photonics for decades, which is why we're going to pursue this competition aggressively."
National Manufacturing Day was a great day for Western New York and for the nation's optics, photonics & imaging industry. A lot of people, to many to list here, deserve credit for their hard work.
Congresswoman Slaughter's Letter to Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary Andre J. GudgerOctober 1, 2014
Yesterday, September 30, 2014, Congresswoman Louise Slaughter wrote a letter to André Gudger, Acting Deputy Assistance Secretary of Defense in the DoD Office of Manufacturing & Industrial Base Policy (MIBP). MIBP's Manufacturing Technology (ManTech) program will stand up two manufacturing innovation institutes that play a critical role in the Obama Administration's national manufacturing agenda. (NNMI)
Slaughter's letter supports the Rochester Regional Photonics Cluster and New York Photonics efforts to establish Rochester in a leadership position for a Manufacturing Institute in Optics, Photonics and Imaging.
The letter is here:
Congresswoman Slaughter was the keynote speaker at the New York Photonics annual meeting on September 3rd. The panel discussion documented New York State efforts to establish a National Center for Optics, Photonics and Imaging technologies.
Photos from the Annual Meeting are here.

Divorce Pension Rights
Locate a Local Family Lawyer
Divorce Pension Rights
Most states have held that pensions and retirement benefits are marital assets subject to equitable distribution by a court. The most important requirement is that such rights be acquired during the marriage. Some states allow benefits to be distributed for pension plans that began a few years prior to the marriage.
Pension benefits that accrue (i.e. gain interest) after the parties are divorced are not considered marital property and therefore are not subject to equitable distribution. A non-employee spouse who asks for distribution of an employee spouse's pension rights before the employee spouse actually retires gives up any right she has to increased payments in the future which might accrue due to increased age, longer service, or a higher salary.
Public Pension or Retirement Plan vs. Private Plan
Generally, rights and benefits under public pension and retirement plans (such as those administered for civil servants and other state or municipal employees) are treated no differently than rights and benefits under private pension plans. They will still be considered marital property insofar as they relate to employment during the marriage.
How Are Pension Rights Distributed following a Divorce?
States deal with the distribution of pension rights in a variety of ways depending on the circumstances. Some of the ways that pension rights are distributed include:
- Determing alimony or child support payments: Pension plans are typically used as a source of payment by one spouse for the support of the other or for child support. A court may award a portion of a pension plan or the entire plan for such purposes.
- As a factor in dividing other marital assets: If a court in a divorce proceeding awards the entire pension plan to one spouse, it will typically balance its value as an asset by giving an equal amount of community property to the other spouse.
Do I Need a Family Law Attorney?
A experienced family law attorney is often necessary to obtain a divorce in the first place, so they should be also able to help you obtain rights in your spouse's pension plan. Make sure you tell your attorney whether or not your spouse has a pension plan and whether he or she gained benefits from the plan while you were married. A lawyer will file all the required paperwork and make sure you receive a proper share of your spouse's assets.
