Chrome OS Almost Complete?
In a twist of fate Chrome OS has hit the limelight once more. It's been a month or so since we've heard any major news about Google's pet project and I have to admit; this was becoming a concern for many. It has almost been a year since Google announced their plans to release Chrome OS but the Internet giant …
Acer working on Chrome OS netbooks and tablets – to ship 3rd quarter!
In an interview with Bloomberg, Acer has moved it's Chrome OS netbook release to third quarter rather than the perceived second quarter of 2010. The pioneering Netbook producer has also spilt the beans on its upcoming product line and the news seems very good indeed:
Qualcomm announces Google Chrome OS support
Qualcomm have announced that they are now adding Google Chrome OS to their list of supported platforms, with CEO Paul Jacobs revealing the news on-stage at CES 2010 this morning.
CES 2010 – Any Chrome OS surprises to come?
CES 2010 is only a few days away and we are all anticipating leaks and announcement from all the world technology leaders. The big questions remain though, at least questions that we are concerned with.
Google's Chrome OS Netbook Specs Leaked!
We've already seen that early builds of Google's Chromium OS can be hacked onto existing machines, but those Chrome OS netbooks that the software giant has planned for next year have remained curiously elusive until now.
A Google Branded Netbook?
Google seems to be going all out this year. It seems like they have a lot more planned for their upcoming Chrome OS Operating system than once thought.
This week we heard the most fascinating news yet that Google may actually be partnering with a select number of companies to provide what the news media is calling a "Google Branded NetbooK".
The laptop of the future?
As we are all currently celebrating the newly announced Chrome OS for the netbook market; I thought it would be fitting to take a sneak peak into the future of netbooks and laptops. After all, if the operating systems are becoming more complex and user friendly, wouldn't it be fitting to take a gander into what hardware might become?
HTC Hero running Android 2.1?
Are these screenshots of the HTC Hero running Android? Well I certainly think so! Google seems to be working on a new minor upgrade of their current Android 2.0 and shown above is a screenshot of what is believed to be the upcoming Android 2.1. More is yet to come but this is certainly exciting. It's still early days so the screenshots are still to be confirmed as authentic.
Getting and Building a Chromium-Based OS
Our goal here is to give you an idea of how to get started.
Note: For all instructions, make sure you download the client into a local directory. Placing the source and compiling on a network partition will drive you nuts.
Google Wave Overview
Google wave is probably still the most mysterious of Google's upcoming software releases. We've all heard much about the anticipated Chrome OS, and we do have a relatively clear idea of what it's going to do.
I thought it would be great to hear from the Google team, and what they feel the software will be most useful for
Chrome OS Beta available for download!
Hey all, there seems to have been a huge surge of downloads available on the internet for Google Chrome OS Beta. For those of you interested in trying it out, here is the download. I don't know what the legality of this is due to the fact that Chrome will be free and is based on an open source Linux platform anyway. Just in case, only download and try this out at your own discretion.
Google Wave Developer Preview!
This video was released in may this year but a lot of people hadn't seen it yet.
For myself, I think Google Wave is the most amazing peace of software yet from google. We are all waiting for it with much anticipation. Just like any other piece of software only time will tell how great or aweful it may be. As for now all we have to go by are previews and leaks like the one below.

Battle of the Colonial Tyrants
King George III of England
At the time, George was the longest serving monarch in English history, serving for 59 years (only Queen Victoria has served longer).
His reign was marked by frequent problems with the American colonies. First, he fought a long war with France over control of the continent in the Seven Years War. Next, angry Bostonians threw his tea into Boston Harbor. Finally, Benjamin Franklin called him "a cotton-headed ninny-muggins."
The most famous document in American history, the Declaration of Independence, is basically a long list detailing why George could never find friends to hang out with on the weekends. Choice excerpts: "He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people."
George once called the Napoleonic Wars his favorite military conflict: "How refreshing! A war on our own continent, and such an adorably short leader!"
In 1810, George went insane. The Prince of Wales took over as regent for the final decade of the king's life. By the end of his life, George spoke nothing but incomprehensible gibberish. Kind of like our current president.
Leopold II of Belgium
In the 19th century as now, Belgium was a fake country. Essentially a forced merger between French-speaking Wallonia in the south and Flemish-speaking Flanders in the north, Leopold's father was installed as king in 1831 simply because the country needed one. Leopold II followed in this hallowed tradition.
Leopold had no interest in art, culture, or even diplomacy. He had one goal his entire life: he wanted a colony to call his very own. Since Belgium was a small country without the wealth of its larger European neighbors, Leopold decided to make up a colony on his own. He sent explorers to central Africa, into the region of the Congo, and simply took over.
The Congo region exported large amounts of ivory and rubber, which Leopold extracted by turning the his African subjects into slaves and brutally working them, often through aggressive and vicious measures like kidnapping the wives and children of unproductive men and burning down villages that were thought to be insolent. Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness famously chronicled colonialism in the Congo at this time.
Leopold was not very popular with his family, either. He disinherited all three of his daughters and at his death left much of his fortune to his mistress, a French prostitute.
Advantage: Leopold. While George looms large in the American Creation Myth, Leopold was a true sadistic monster: under his watch half the population of the Congo, about 10 million people, are thought to have died.

This is Eucalyptus leucoxylon 'Rosea' at the Chelsea Physic Garden. I love the tassel-like flowers - they're kind of burlesque and cheeky.
The Physic Garden is one of those special London spaces - positively bursting with historical gems: over 300 years old, it's the cradle of botany and has features like the Grade II listed, oldest rock garden in Europe (surely that must be the world? does anyone know of an older one?), not to mention some gorgeous plants for both medicinal and pleasurable purposes. It feels like a million miles away from the city, once you're inside the walls. And now it's open until 10pm on Wednesday's through til the end of August which makes it the perfect after work venue for the plant fetishist. Favourites on this latest visit were the camouflage bark of a Luma ariculata, the coal black stems of a giant New Zealand tree fern; oh and the fabulous collection of salvias.
And as with all good garden visits, you can have a drink and eat there too. The Physic Garden has a great reputation for mouthwatering cakes. Even better, on evening openings, you can have dinner there too. The food is great, with an ex-River Cafe team doing a set menu for £23 (antipasti, lobster and sicilian lemon tart- yum). You have to be a member to book - but it means it never gets too crowded. A perfect summer night out in the city.

The role of The Rowan Organisation is to provide support, advice and information to Direct Payment recipients. This includes supporting to recruit suitable personal assistants to meet the needs of the individual recruiting.
It is sometimes the case that applicants are unsuccessful in their application for a specific job. This is usually due to a high quality of applicants or the hours that the person is or is not able to work do not meet the individual's needs. There are also times when a personal assistant requires some additional hours. As a result of this the local team has created a database to hold the information of these applicants who have completed, agreed to and signed the enclosed form. This enables us to support Direct Payment recipients with their recruitment process.
If you decide to join this database we will contact you by phone or email to notify you of suitable vacancies as and when they appear on the website, to enable you to apply online for any posts that interest you.

Antenatal classes
From their book 'You and Your New Baby' by Christine and Peter Hill.
It is not quite as easy as it might seem to make straightforward points about antenatal classes. At one level they are obviously a good thing, yet what one course offers is quite likely to be different from another. If you are in the fortunate position of being able to choose which ones to go to (which probably only applies to people living in cities or large towns) then it pays to think about what they can do for you. Then, by asking around, you can find out what goes on and choose accordingly.
Hospital classes are generally sound, though sometimes unexciting, and have the advantage of familiarising you with names, faces and the building where it's ultimately all going to happen.
The main point of antenatal classes is to educate people so that they are not frightened during labour. They will also explain how to recognise the onset of labour; when to go into hospital; what is going to happen there; the language used by health professionals to describe the processes involved in childbirth; how to manage contractions; what forms of pain relief are available; and how to help the midwives deliver your baby. Whatever else the classes do, they must cover this ground.
Some classes go further. The better ones provide a framework for understanding the process of birth in terms of the female anatomy and physiology. They will also explain when and why medical interventions may be necessary. The best take the whole process beyond the birth (which of course is not the finale) and discuss current feeding techniques and basic baby care as well as the potential problems that are likely to arise when caring for a new baby.

Hi: 6° Lo:3° 7 day
NANDO'S is set to open a restaurant in Leamington next summer, we can exclusively reveal.
After a job vacancy advertising an assistant manager's role at a new site in Leamington appeared online, we contacted the chain – famous for its peri-peri chicken – who confirmed they will be opening premises in the town midway through next year.
The prospective site is currently listed on the Nando's website as being in the Campion Hills area of the town but it is expected the chain will open in a North Leamington location.
Founded in 1987, Nando's operates in thirty countries on five continents and specialises in chicken dishes with either lemon and herb, medium, hot, extra hot or extra extra hot peri-peri marinades.
In 1992 the chain expanded into the UK opening its first restaurant in Ealing, London and there are currently more than 250 other Nando's nationwide.
A Nando's spokesperson confirmed to the Observer: "It's true, we're actively pursuing a site in Leamington Spa, and we hope to open a restaurant there next summer!"
The chain is hugely popular across the country. (s)

Silver and platinum futures fell sharply yesterday amid perceptions that this week's cut in interest rates would spur neither an economic recovery nor a rise in inflation.
Silver for delivery next month fell 7 cents on the Commodity Exchange in New York to $3.998 an ounce, the contract's first close below $4 since Sept. 11.
December gold dropped $1.10, to $354.70 an ounce on the Comex, while January platinum deliveries tumbled $6.20, to $358.80 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
The selloff followed a weak performance by the precious metals on Wednesday after the Federal Reserve and large American banks lowered key lending rates in hopes of stimulating an economic recovery.
Some analysts said the failure of precious metals to rally strongly on Wednesday signaled a lack of confidence in the economy and set the stage for yesterday's selloff.

The Pizza Man, and the Parrots
By Nancy S. Mure´
Bare trees and a cloudy, January sky meant one thing in New York: snow. Above the attached houses and garden apartments of Brooklyn, Mr. Martinelli, a local pizza man, looked up and saw a big green parrot perched on an electrical wire. And then he saw another and another. At the very top of the pole, Mr. Martinelli saw a huge nest built near a warm utility box where another six or seven parrots rested.
On this cold winter afternoon, Mr. Martinelli counted a dozen parrots--tropical birds--living in Brooklyn! Amazed at how adaptable they were, he watched others as he passed all the food shops on Atlantic Avenue. He listened to their unfamiliar sound as he walked: "GLAK, GLAK, GLAK."
Perhaps they are hungry, Mr. Martinelli thought as he opened his pizzeria for lunch.
He went inside, then emerged with bread crumbs, and scattered them along the sidewalk.
Pigeons and seagulls swooped down to eat the crumbs, but the green parrots didn't come down from the electrical wire.
"Oh well," Mr. Martinelli muttered. He went inside to make his pizza pies. It would be another very busy day.
As he closed for the day, he noticed the birds still perched on the wire, grooming and kissing one another. Some purred and their feathers were fluffed.
The next day as he opened his pizzeria, Mr. Martinelli saw the parrots watching him from above. He splattered bread crumbs for them, but they just looked at him and then each other. They cocked their heads as the Pigeons and seagulls pecked at Mr. Martinelli's offering and remained on the wire.
"Mangia, eat!" he hollered with his arms open toward the colorful parrots on the wire.
Later as Mr. Martinelli was taking out the trash, he heard the parrots chattering, singing, and talking among themselves. He heard one say, "SQUAWK, rice balls, SQUAWK!" "Huh?" Mr. Martinelli gazed around, puzzled....

Monday, December 26, 2011, 09:49 AM - Understanding the CA WC system
What were the top 10 developments in California workers' comp in 2011?2011 was not a blockbuster year in California workers' comp, although a few things do stand out. Here's my list, in no particular order:1. TRANSITION FROM SCHWARZENEGGER ADMINISTRATION TO THE JERRY BROWN APPPOINTED DIR/DWC
In 2011 Brown appointees Christine Baker and Rosa Moran took the reins at the Department of Industrial Relations and the Division of Workers' Compensation respectively. Inheriting a slew of immediate problems including difficulties with EAMS, lack of staffing at some WCAB district offices, and the Medical Unit, Baker and Moran have launched some initiatives to tackle these problems, but with money in short supply, solutions may be incremental. 2011 did not see much activity on the rulemaking front, and a number of the Schwarzenegger Administration's 12-point cost saving measures remain in limbo.
At year's end it was unclear whether in 2012 the DIR/DWC will move aggressively on various systemic cost-savings issues or whether the DIR/DWC will hold back to see if stakeholders can hammer out a deal.
Several bills that Brown signed will require DWC implementation (see below).
Meanwhile, over at the WCAB, Brown appointed Commissioner Ronnie
Caplane to be the Chairperson of the WCAB, succeeding outgoing Chair Joe Miller. As Caplane became chair the WCAB had a number of empty commissioner slots, and at year's end it was not clear how quickly Brown would act to fill those slots.
Injured workers and labor advocates who hoped the Governor would sign significant legislation in 2011 remedying injustices from SB 899 were disappointed.
Brown vetoed bills that would have simplified the job retraining voucher process (AB 211) , prohibited discrimination in apportionment determinations (AB 1155) , allowed workers under specified circumstances to draw more than 104 weeks of TTD if they were recuperating from surgery (AB 947), and have required that utilization reviews be done by California doctors (AB 584).
Brown did sign bills requiring the DWC to develop a voc rehab expert fee schedule (AB 1168), requiring the DWC to develop streamlined notices
(AB 335), requiring the DWC to regulate the allowable costs of compounded medications (AB 378), and requiring proof of workers' comp coverage when renewing a contractors license (AB 397).
In casting his vetoes, Brown specifically noted that some of these changes would be approved only as part of a broader overall reform.
2011 was the first year in which the California Department of Insurance and the WCIRB used a new methodology to determine the advisory "pure premium rate". California Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones adopted $2.33 as an advisory pure premium rate and noted that the
"average filed pure premium rate" in early 2011 was $2.37 per $100 of payroll and the "average charge rate" was $2.38 per $100 of payroll, down from 2003 average charged rates of $6.29 per $100 of payroll.
While rate-setting changes may result in increases for some employee classifications, it appears that rates paid by employers overall have remained very stable at a time that the California economy was weak.
Also noteworthy was news by the WCIRB that the calendar loss ration for the first 9 months of 2011 had decreased from the 2010 calendar loss ratio.
For a link to a post on the topic of rate trends , see "Proof in the Pudding":
http://workerscompzone.com/index.php?m= ... 109-213717
Also adding cheer for California employers was a 28% reduction in assessments authorized by Labor Code 62.5 and 62.6. These assessments fund the Workers' Compensation Administration Fund, the UEBTF, the SIF fund, Cal-OSHA, Labor Standards enforcement and the Workers' Comp Fraud Account. According to the DIR, reduction in assessments were "acieved through fiscal controls put in place by Governor Brown".
At SCIF, transition and turmoil continued. Early in 2011 SCIF announced plans to lay off up to 1,800 workers, a move contested by SEIU Local 1000. Later in the year a severance agreement was reached between SCIF and the union that represents many SCIF employees.
Overall, staff morale at SCIF plunged to new lows as SCIF leadership made moves to trim costs and staff and close various offices.
At year's end SCIF announced a $50 million dividend for policyholders, its first since 2001.
A 2011 study by the California Workers Compensation Institute showed that usage of medical provider networks (MPNs) had continued to rise since 2004.
Meanwhile, an en banc ruling from the WCAB, Elayne Valdez v. Warehouse Demo Services, found that where unauthorized treatment is obtained outside a validly established and properly noticed MPN, reports from the non-MPN doctors are inadmissible, and may not be relied on.
Here is a link to my initial Valdez post:
http://workerscompzone.com/index.php?en ... 420-223325
But despite Valdez, in Southern California many applicant attorneys continue to circumvent MPNs based on carrier non-compliance with MPN regulations. A midyear seminar at the CAAA convention discussed dozens of scenarios where MPNs might be found out of regulatory compliance, enabling applicant to "take control" and choose a non-network provider. Still, at year''s end it appears that Valdez will likely trip up those applicant attorney practice models that routinely attempt to circumvent MPNs.
By statute, California's permanent disability rating schedule is supposed to be revised every five years. In 2010 the Schwarzenegger Administration declined to adopt a revise of the 2005 PDRS, citing the fragile California economy.
Although the DWC may now be allocating some staff resources to the issue, 2011 saw no public leadership by the DIR/DWC on the issue. Various stakeholder groups have met with the DIR/DWC to discuss possible cost savings.
At year's end it was still unclear whether the DIR/DWC would take the lead in outlining its vision of a plan for cost-savings that would fund a PD increase or whether nothing will be done until a stakeholder consensus emerges.
Lien backlogs continued to choke the California WCAB district offices at several California boards, principally in Southern California. The issue has been studied by CHSWC staff, which presented a comprehensive report on the scope of the problem that was adopted by CHSWC in January 2011. The CHSWC report included 28 recommendations for dealing with the problem of liens.
SB 863 (Lieu), a bill to tighten limitations periods on liens, did not make it through the legislative gauntlet.
As 2011 ends it is not clear what the DIR/DWC intends to do on many of the CHWSC recommendations. Proposed rulemaking by the WCAB has not been finalized:
In 2011 the California Supreme Court issued an opinion in Baker vs. WCAB (formerly known as Duncan v. WCAB and before that as the XYZZ case), handing injured workers a defeat. At issue was the proper interpretation of California's COLA statute, Labor Code 4659(c) which applies a COLA to injuries after 1/1/03 where the worker is 70% disabled or above (i.e. permanent total or eligible for a "life pension" as disabled between 70% and 99%). Here is a link to my post on the case:
http://workerscompzone.com/index.php?en ... 811-121111
Advocates for disabled workers scored a win at the California Court of Appeals, First District in the case of Ogilvie v. City and County of San Francisco. The issue was over whether the "adjustment factor" in the 2005 PDRS could be rebutted by vocational testimony and whether the court would uphold the formula for doing so adopted by the WCAB in its en banc Ogilvie II decision.
Under the decision by the Court of Appeals, First District, the schedule can be rebutted by showing a factual error in calculation the rating formula, by showing the omission of medical complications in the preparation of the schedule, or by demonstrating a greater loss of future earning capacity than reflected in the scheduled rating. In so holding, the Court equated the pre SB 899 standard of lack of ability to compete in the open labor market with the SB 899 standard of diminished future earning capacity.
The California Supreme Court declined to hear the case. But since the Court of Appeals, First District had remanded the case back to the WCAB for further factual determination, we may yet hear more about Ogilvie in 2012.
At year's end the meaning of the decision and methodologies permissible under Ogilvie are still subject to debate in the comp legal world.
Moreover, it is thought that advocates of reform will try to take away "the cases" (Ogilvie and Guzman) as part of a deal for a revised benefit schedule.
As 2011 came to a close, a hearing at California's Capitol reminded observers of the huge problem known as the "underground economy".
Testimony by DIR director Christine Baker noted that out of a sample of 1,498 employers identified by EDD , over 25% were found by the Workers Compensation Insurance Rating Bureau to be lacking insurance coverage.
Baker's testimony noted that it appears that many employers are misclassifying or buying just enough coverage to stay under the radar.
Here is a link to my post on the topic:
http://workerscompzone.com/index.php?en ... 210-162217
Notable on this topic is SB 459, which will allow fines of up to $15,000 per violation for willful misclassification of an employee. Penalties of up to $25,000 can be assessed if there is a "pattern and practice" of willful misclassification of employees.
That's my list for 2011.

It's that time of year when our collective unconscious is focusing on sugar plums, flying reindeer and roasting chestnuts.You deserve such relaxing delights. After all, if you're reading this you survived fistfights at the mall over teaser sales merchandise, copper thieves who hoped to harvest your home wiring, and you're just glad that the Stux worm is slithering somewhere in Tehran rather than coursing through your laptop.
Pat yourself on the back for surviving another year in our hoary culture. Time to put your feet up and think back on the year.
But wait.
There's a little drama left yet in the quickly passing 2011 California workers' comp scene.
It's a drama...a lawsuit actually....given prominent coverage by Workcompcentral's Western Bureau Chief Greg Jones in a recent article on www.workcompcentral, titled "California Lawsuit Alleges Defense Firm Encouraged Fraudulent Billing".
The piece by Jones covers a wrongful termination lawsuit filed against a large statewide workers' comp firm, Adelson, Testan, Brundo & Jiminez.
(my disclosure here: I have worked with an alum of the Adelson firm but have not discussed this matter with that person. Also, at any given time I have probably have at least one or two dozen active applicant cases being litigated against defendants repped by various Adelson firm offices, but I have no inside knowledge about the firm's billing and personnel practices and I respect many of the firm's individual attorneys).
The plaintiff in the lawsuit is Richard Unitan, an attorney who joined the Adelson firm after a decades long career in Southern California.
Indications are that the lawsuit will be a slugfest. Managing partner and firm founder Steve Testan has been quoted as vehemently challenging the allegations of Unitan and his counsel, Jeffrey K. Winikow.
Unitan charges that he was dismissed for failing to bill at a level that "is virtually impossible to achieve with accurate and honest billing practices".
Specifically, Unitan appears to be charging that Adelson attorneys were required to bill a minimum of 3,000 hours per year and that the structure of the firm's billing and timekeeping requirements encouraged attorneys to churn and put "a good deal of fiction into billing statements".
This is alleged to be done in "incremental billing", where lawyers bill at hourly fractional rates in 1/10 of an hour increments.
There are a variety of billing arrangements used by California workers' comp defense firms, including some "flat fee" billing arrangements.
If this case proceeds to trial it may provide a fascinating window into the economics of workers' comp defense practice. But if 3,000 hours is the de facto standard at a firm, that's a lot of hours.
Could it be true that compressed defense billing rates encourage insurance defense firms to pad their bills?
This sort of issue was at the heart of a nasty dispute several years ago in San Francisco, when civil litigation firm Tarkington, O'Connor & O'Neal was accused of billing irregularities and overbilling. The Tarkington firm eventually won a verdict against its insurer over comments that the insurer's auditor had made to the press about the firm's billing practices. The situation was different than the Unitan Vs. Adelson situation, but it's a reminder that reputations are fragile and that it's good to withhold judgment until one has the facts.
In Workcompcentral, Jones notes that plaintiff attorney Winikow claims that Unitan was the victim of a corporate culture that encourages and pressures attorneys to act not in the best interests of their clients to resolve disputes efficiently, but rather in the best interest of the law firm. Testan is quoted as saying that incremental billing is standard in the defense industry and that Unitan was terminated for a number of reasons unrelated to billing requirements.
Keep your eye on this one in 2012.

My longtime law partner Mike Gerson was awarded a well-earned honor last week: the Barry Williams Lifetime Achievement award, bestowed by the East Bay Chapter of CAAA.Barry Williams was a legendary figure in California workers' compensation before his untimely death. Williams had always been noted for his encyclopedic knowledge of California workers' compensation law and his tenacious representation of workers. Although Williams never received the appointment to the statewide WCAB that he had sought, Williams' career and memory lives on among many of those who had the pleasure of working with him.
Having worked with both Barry and Mike, it was doubly a treat to see Gerson get this award.
Unlike some lawyers who may be in it "just for the money', Mike has always had a passion to represent the underdog and an interest in the development of the law.
Since my office is adjacent to his, I've often had the difficult task of telling Mike to pack up and go home for dinner. As the nights wear on, Mike has often been oblivious to time, caught up in preparing for trial or formulating case strategy.
Time and time again I've seen him achieve superior results, cutting through the legal fog with his wit and persistence.
Thinking about this reminded me of an old newsletter message Mike had written in 1990 while serving as statewide president of the California Applicants Attorneys Association.
Here are some excerpts from that 1990 piece:
"Recently, I trudged my way back from the Board with the worries of the world heavy on my shoulders. The defendants ran the clock on an all-day trial that took 14 months to calendar, and another four months might go by before a new trial date gets set."
"I was fatigued, depressed and frustrated by a system for which I continuously apologize to our clients. representing injured workers has become overwhelmingly distressing. As I heard my office, I thought "My God! I do do good for injured workers!" And as I thought this, I chanted under my breath as I marched, "I do do good". I swung open the office door exalting-"I'm a do-gooder, that's what I am! And I'm proud of it"."
"Enthusiastically, I reached for my 50-or-so messages and the stack of incoming mail, and said hello and good-bye to my secretary as she left for the day. So began my typical work day at 5 p.m."
"This type of work requires commitment, sympathy and compassion for the victims of work injuries, and a passion to help others. You either have this kind of passion or you don't."
It's this sort of philosophy which has distinguished Gerson over the years.
Like professionals and business people who excel in any field, the true leaders in this type of law have a vision and a commitment that is genuine.
It's been my great pleasure to work with Mike over the decades, and I'm thrilled to see him be honored.
Stay tuned. In the coming week I'll be doing a post on the Top 10 Developments in California Workers' Comp.

Workers' Comp in 2011
Wednesday, December 14, 2011, 08:40 AM - Political developments
One of the things I've always liked about the "comp community" is the sense that most of the comp attorneys, QME doctors, and WCAB staff have a sense of loyalty to the system.That sense of collegiality was on display at yesterday's effort in Oakland to help the needy at holiday time. THe occasion was the Oakland Mayor's Toy Drive.
An event at Boxer & Gerson that was co-sponsored by Hanna & Brophy netted hundreds of toys for kids and several thousand dollars which will allow the program to buy more toys.
Embattled Oakland Mayor Jean Quan attended and spoke to an audience of judges, doctors and attorneys about the great need in these challenging economic times. Quan indicated that on the first day for toy program sign-ups over 1,000 Oakland kids were registered.
Quan indicated that Bay Area food banks were considerably down in resources.
A note of special mention and thanks to the folks who worked hard to make the toy event a success: Maria Sager of Boxer & Gerson and Keith Epstein of Hanna & Brophy.
Hopefully the various comp communities at boards around the state can find inspiration in this sort of event to help fill needs that aren't being met.
Also, a word of congratulations here to Christine Baker, who has been appointed to head the Department of Industrial Relations. Baker had previously been serving as Acting Director.
Stay tuned. In the coming weeks I'll be assessing the top developments in workers' comp in 2011 and giving a year end quiz for those who have a crystal ball for 2012.

Rebuilding an Icon: Fort ClatsopThe Lewis and Clark Expedition is a symbol of our nations heritage, of the spirit of discovery and exploration that identifies our past. Seeking to honor the Corps of Discoverys incredible journey to the Pacific Ocean, the community of Astoria, Oregon built a memorial in the form of the Fort Clatsop replica. But on October 3, 2005, flames blazed high in the sky. Local officials and townspeople looked on in horror as Fort Clatsop burned to the ground. A tale that spans two centuries, Fort Clatsop: Rebuilding an Icon tells of the explorers journey to the unknown territory of the Oregon coast; of a community coming together to honor the past, only to see their memorial burned to the ground; and of the incredible spirit that drove them to start anew. In Fort Clatsop: Rebuilding an Icon, read of a community that came together to rebuild an incredible memorial to the past only to create a new symbol of Americas enduring spirit. |
A collaboration between The Daily Astorian and Ooligan Press, Fort Clatsop: Rebuilding an Icon reveals the three lives of the fort. Written in a lively journalistic style, Fort Clatsop brings Oregon history to life by drawing the reader into an incredible story of triumph and hardship, of destruction and rebirth, and of the distant past leading to a hopeful future.

Installing Tru-Cool
While towing I was hitting uncomfortable temps on my tranny (4R100 in an 01 CC 250). Passed on the 6.0 cooler due to cost & bought the Tru-Cool Max 4739 thinking it was an additional/piggy back system but it appears to be a replacement instead. I have read here of others putting 1, or even 2 T.C.s in addition to the existing.
Question is does the T.C. cooler flow at the same rate as the original allowing them to be installed inline or do they need to be installed otherwise? Anyone that has installed 1 or more T.Cs on theyre truck got any info they can share with me or direct me to an online visual of the procedure? I need to install tomorrow so any help would much appreciated. |

Don't know if this will help or not but you can find a thread in the 6.0 tech files that will help. I will be adding another cooler to mine on Tuesday. Hope this helps you.
Transtar Tranny Oil Cooler Install |
I put the trucool 40 cooler on my truck and mounted it to the back side of the front bumper over the hole where the tag and fog lights would go if I had them. I just took the return line from the factory cooler and hooked it to the trucool and then hooked the other end of the trucool back to the line going to the tranny. My cooler came with a piece of hose, clamps and fittings for like $120. It worked great, really dropped my towing temps. I highly recommend it.
A few years later when my tranny finally died at 200,000 miles I had to replace the factory cooler so Ford would honor the warranty on the new tranny, at that time I bought the trucool 40K cooler that is designed to replace the factory one, it was a bit of a pain to install but I now have 2 trucool 40K's in series and can't get the tranny over 150 no matter how I abuse it. Here are some pics of my setup; This is the one designed to replace the factory cooler, same size but has brackets This is the regular one I chose to mount to the bumper This is the one designed to replace the factory cooler, same size but has brackets This is the regular one I chose to mount to the bumper Last edited by alabamafrog; 05-25-2008 at 09:16 PM. |
I looked at the spot behind the license plate the other day. Did you have to fab any brackets to hold it there?
Oh, and one more thing, you want the fittings on the top so the fluid is forced by gravity to fill the whole cooler before it runs out back to the tranny for maximum cooling. If mounted with fittings on the bottom it may just flow from one side back out the other without getting enough surface area exposure to have a good heat exchange with the air.
Never mind the question. for some reason the pics didn't load on my computer the first time .
Yea, thats me being lazy, I usually post my reply then I can click on my signature link to get to my photo site and I then add them from there. That way I dont have to go find the photo site or log into it. It usually takes me a few edits until I get everything to display right.
Thanks Frog
Great post, just what I was looking for & the part about putting the in/out ports up very useful
I put a tru cool max inline with the stock cooler. 70,000 miles no problems!
my set up goes through the oe cooler, then to a tru cool between the rad and intercooler then to a tru cool right behind the grill. drove it around yesterday for an hr in 75 degrees sunshine and reached a max of 125

Essays in Corporate Finance and Labor EconomicsXiaoyang LiCheung Kong Graduate School of Business August 2, 2011 Abstract: My dissertation is composed of three essays addressing the following three questions: First, how do mergers and acquisitions create value? Second, what role does labor union play in affecting merger outcomes? Third, how do CEOs' career concerns impact firms' restructuring decisions? In the first essay, I investigate the underlying sources of gains from takeovers. Using plant-level data from the U.S. Census Bureau, I show that acquirers significantly reduce investments, wages, and employment in target plants, though output is unchanged relative to comparable plants. Acquirers also aggressively shut down target plants. Moreover, these changes help explain the merging firms' announcement returns. The total announcement returns to the combined firm are driven by improvements in the target firm's productivity. Also, targets with greater post-takeover productivity improvements receive higher premiums from acquirers. These results provide some of the first empirical evidence on the direct relation between productivity, labor, and stock returns in the context of takeovers. In the second essay, I examine the role of labor unions in takeovers. I show that gains to merging firms' shareholders are positively associated with target's union membership. Also, target's shareholders capture a larger share of joint gains when the target's union is weaker. I then analyze the wage and employment outcomes for a large sample of firms that were acquired between 1981 and 2002. I find that after a takeover, target establishments exhibit net decline in wages and employment, especially when target's union membership is high. These results highlight the role of takeovers in unlocking the economic rents previously captured by labor unions. In the third essay, I compare how career concerns affect the real investment decisions of younger and older CEOs. I show that younger CEOs undertake more active investment activities. They are more likely to enter new lines of business, as well as exit existing lines of business. They prefer growth through acquisitions, while older CEOs prefer to build new plants. This busier investment style of the younger CEOs appears to be relatively successful since younger CEOs are associated with higher plant-level efficiency compared to older CEOs.

Wednesday 4 July 2012
OK, I know this is not rugby or Sevens rugby for that matter, but it is such an historic moment in South African sport that we had to include a mention here.
South Africa's Olympic governing body SASCOC today announced the addition of a further 13 athletes to the Team South Africa squad that will carry the nation's hopes at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. These 13 names include that of legendary paralympic athlete Oscar Pistorius (pictured below) who will be making history in London later this month.
Giving South Africa another shot at a possible medal was the inclusion of a 4x400m relay squad. Among those names were Paralympic ace Oscar Pistorius who ran an 'A' standard qualifier in the 400m and will now compete at his first Olympic Games.
Pistorius will be joined by Willem de Beer, Ofentse Mogawane and Shaun de Jager. The South African 4x400m relay team won silver at the IAAF World Athletics Championships in Daegu, South Korea last year.
You're a legend Oscar and we here at BlitzBokke.com salute you for your endurance, tenacity and talent.
Go for gold Oscar!

Anniversary pictures... like the concept Alun. . The swirl of water makes a great foreground, and the rest is pretty good too
A timeless image that's been happening since the dawn of time no doubt.
You can really sense how that water was moving Alun. The light and clarity are perfect.

Personal tax return information will not necessarily provide a clearer picture of who the candidate is, but rather the lengths he'll go to (and the skill of his tax advisors) in order to pay the lowest amount possible.
It's reasonable to believe that he embellishes income and assets to potential investors and/or financial institutions quite differently from how he presents that information to the Internal Revenue Service. But true value and location is probably reserved for only a very select and vetted few.
Limiting income tax iability is a puzzle all citizens try to solve in the months from April through the automatic extension period of October of every year.
This is where business and politics part ways. When it comes to money as it relates to personal wealth and a family legacy, the risk of full disclosure increases as net worth ncreases.
The real question is not necessarily what's being hidden, but who is it really being hidden from?
Perhaps for the mega rich, the penalty of disclosure may bear a far greater risk from business competitors than from Voters' reaction to their actual rate, investments, or charitable contributions over the years.
Apparently, even if it can cost them the Presidency.

"Prison Break" star Wentworth Miller has come out. The actor announced that he was gay via a letter to Petersburg International Film Festival director Maria Averbakh, who had invited him to attend the event in Russia, People Magazine reported on Aug. 21.
Miller, 41, wrote that he was grateful for the "kind invitation," but that "as a gay man I am deeply troubled by the current attitude toward and treatment of gay men and women by the Russian government." This comes as a surprise to many fans whom hadn't known the "Prison Break" actor was gay.
Wentworth Miller continued his coming out letter by saying "The situation is in no way acceptable, and I cannot in good conscience participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live and love openly. If circumstances improve, I'll be free to make a different choice."
In Russia violence against gays has been a reoccurring issue. Recently, a law was passed in the country restricted the adoption of Russian children to countries that allow same sex marriage.
What are your thoughts on Wentworth Miller coming out via letter in support of fair treatment for gay rights in Russia? Were you surprised by the "Prison Break" star's letter?

In reply to rules for physical contact in courting posted by gail on August 05, 1997 at 09:24:28
] In P&P2 Elizabeth and Darcy are first shown to kiss after the wedding. Who knows what the rules were
] for kissing and other physical contact for couples courting in Jane Austen's day?
In an older P&P book, I have a lengthy introduction, critique by one Tony Tanner. The critique is over 60 pages, and he has done a marvelous job on analyzing the times, characters, etc. Among his descriptions of the social norms of the time: It is a society which stresses social control over individual ecstasy, formality over informality, sartorial neatness over bodily abondon, and alert consciousness over the more Romantic states of revery and trance. The schemes and structures of the group -- family, community, society -- tned to coerce and even predetermine the volition and aspirations of the self. ... and some of the dialogue between Elizabeth and Darcy requires a very high degree of alertness and conscionsness. Indeed, this is just the point, that in this society linguistic experience is stress almost to the exclusion of bodily experience. That last statement pretty much sums up their contact. But Mr. Tanner writes more: Intimate physical contacts and experiences, while not denied, are minimized. hands may meet, though it is more likely to be the eyes which come together across a distinct social space. ... Dancing is almost exclusively an occasion for private conversation while in public. It seems most important for one to be able to fully express oneself in language, which, I think is why we love Austen so well.
