In spring training, hope sprang eternal for all teams as well as season prop bettors. At the beginning of the 2012 season, we gave you a bet for every team with our world famous ball four-cast. With roughly 100 games left in the season, it's time to check in on how those heavy hitting predictions are doing. In this segment, we look back on the AL Central preseason predictions.
Detroit Tigers Justin Verlander over 17.5 wins
Detroit has limped out of the gate this year and although Verlander picked up a few wins early, his overall success on the year has tapered to a 5-4 record. That means we need 13 wins the rest of the season to grab a victory in this prop bet. Verlander has started 13 games this season and his average the past 2 seasons has been 33 games started which means we'll need a 13-7 record or better down the stretch…doable but asking for a lot.
Kansas City Royals under 80.5 wins
The Royals were once again supposed to contend this year with a roster stocked full of high draft picks ready to cash in on their potential. As it sits, K.C. is 26-34 and 7 games out of first place…on pace for 70 wins. After going 71-91 last year, I thought this total seemed high and as it stands it looks like history is repeating itself.
Cleveland Indians under 79 wins
Besides Baltimore, the Cleveland Indians have been the surprise success of the American League. The Tribe is currently 32-29 which has them 1.5 games out of first place and on pace for 85 wins. A nice losing streak would help our outlook on this particular bet.
Minnesota Twins over 72.5 wins
Much like the Twins, I whiffed on this one. I thought Minnesota would have a resurgence year with some superstars finally getting healthy. Those players are healthy…just bad. The Twins have been mired in not only last place in the AL Central, but the entire Major Leagues for most of the season. Their 25-36 record has them on pace for 66 wins on the season so we'll keep a watchful eye on every Twins series from here on out…even though it qualifies as cruel and unusual punishment.
Chicago White Sox Paul Konerko over 25.5 Home Runs
The White Sox have come out of the gate roaring, even under a new manager in Robin Ventura. A big reason for that success has been Paul Konerko. Paulie has benefited from Adam Dunn's 21HR, 47 RBI start to post numbers of a .366 batting average and 12 HR which puts him on pace for 31 dingers in 2012. Barring injury, a slump, or Adam Dunn having a freefall we should be alright on this one…that's a lot of things to avoid though.
With about 100 games left, we might need some help to be profitable in our AL Central prop bets.

Software as a Service (SaaS) is a software sales model when the developer provides a customer with access to an application through the Internet. The main advantage of the SaaS Model for the customer is that they don't actually receive the software itself, but get all the functionality implemented by it. In this case the client does not pay for possession of the program, but merely renting it. While using SaaS the customer avoids expenses connected with the deployment of the software in the company, as well as all expenses related to the maintenance of the hardware the software is installed on. Responsibility for all this falls on the SaaS provider.
The TeamWox business management system is also sold a SaaS version which provides remote access to the collaboration system via a web interface. The program is not installed on the customer's hardware, but on the servers of MetaQuotes Software Corp. or the servers of other SaaS providers. This eliminates many potential problems and expenses:
Avoids serious financial investment for the purchase of collaboration software under the traditional licensing scheme
- Reduces the deployment time for software installation and groupware introduction
- Eliminates the need to purchase hardware, thereby providing trouble-free operation of the business management system
The SaaS model makes it much easier to deploy the application as the customer does not actually receive the software, but only the business functionality that it provides, which is essentially all the client needs. This also avoids the the substantial cost associated with purchasing the software under a standard licence scheme (with local installation) – The SaaS application is paid for in the small increments for each period of usage for the application. In addition it is possible to eliminate the purchase all the hardware that would be needed to run the application on enterprise level server infrastructure.
All you need to do is pay for access to TeamWox Groupware SaaS installed on our servers or those of other SaaS providers. The system can be accessed through your favorite web browser.
Advantages of the TeamWox SaaS:
Clients receive all the business functionality they require for running their business, without needing to buy an entire groupware software package.
- The whole system benefits from a Fast Start which gets you up and running quicker.
- The SaaS subscription price includes all customer support and all system updates.
- With SaaS you don't need to install or set up any software or track the release of updates and install them. This is all handled by the SaaS provider.
- Administration, maintenance and the stable operation of the server is also the SaaS provider's responsibility.
- Confidentiality and information security are guaranteed - none of the SaaS provider employees will have access to your data.
- The number of possible users is unlimited - you can have as many employees using your collaboration system as you need.

'Expert' Detractors on California Prop 37 are Shills for Big Biotech
All eyes are on California where Proposition 37, which, if passed, would require labeling of foods produced using genetic engineering. It will be put to voters on November 6th. In recent weeks, the battle over GMO labeling has taken an ugly turn. In a true David versus Goliath battle, the opposition will apparently stop at nothing to defeat the measure.
What are they so afraid of?
A common corporate tactic, well-honed by the tobacco industry, is to hire "third-party experts" to bring your message to the public, especially through the media. The idea is that academic types carry much more credibility than the likes of Monsanto when it comes to defending genetically engineered food.
University of California at Monsanto?
It's no accident that the "No on Prop 37" campaign has many academics on its side at the University of California at Davis. The school enjoys millions of dollars in research grants and other largesse from the biotech industry.
A 2004 story in the Sacramento Bee1 describes UC Davis as a research incubator for Big Biotech:
"You name it, and biotechnology companies help pay for it at UC Davis: laboratory studies, scholarships, post-doctoral students' salaries, professors' travel expenses, even the campus utility bill."
According to Bill Liebhardt, former director of the UC system's sustainable farming program:
"'The public is having a hard time figuring out where the corporate door ends and where the university door begins.' And UC Davis cell biologist Eduardo Blumwald says that biotech companies 'are influencing the way we do research.'"
That would certainly explain why so many UC Davis professors profess support for the "No on 37" campaign.
One article, co-authored by University of California at Davis professor Colin Carter,2 not only defends genetically engineered (GE) foods, but also makes unsubstantiated claims while mischaracterizing the language of Prop 37, as Tufts professor Parke Wilde pointed out in August.3 Another pair of UC Davis professors were paid by the "No on 37" campaign, which released their report4 with this dramatic headline:
"UC Davis Professors of Agricultural Economics Release New Report that Shows Proposition 37 Will Increase Costs for California Farmers and Food Processors by $1.2 Billion."
The Los Angeles Times5 reported that the No campaign paid UC Davis professors Julian Alston and Daniel Sumner at least $30,000.
"This article would never stand to peer-review scrutiny, which explains why the report isn't published anywhere but on the 'No on 37' website,"6 he says.
Professor Alston is no stranger to Monsanto largesse. According to the Sacramento Bee:7
"In July 2002, UC Davis farm economics professor Julian Alston found a patron in the private sector: Monsanto, one of the world's five largest crop biotechnology firms. The official announcement came in the form of a letter. 'Dear Dr. Alston,' it read. 'Please find enclosed a check for $40,000 that represents an unrestricted gift in support of your research program.'"
Next, UC Davis Professor Kent Bradford penned a curious op-ed in the Woodland Daily Democrat8 opposing Prop 37 that listed talking points bearing striking resemblance to the "No on 37" campaign's arguments.9 That similarity just might be explained by Bradford's deep ties to Monsanto. According to the Sacramento Bee,10 Branford is "director of the Seed Biotechnology Center at UC Davis, and a leader of Seed Central, a university-led initiative to attract seed industry to the Davis area." He recently trumpeted Monsanto's $31 million expansion at the Woodland, California campus, saying the investment, "capitalizes on UC Davis and the research capacity of the companies."
Most recently, two UC Davis professors appeared on an episode of the Dr. Oz show defending genetically engineered foods.11 One of them, Martina Newell-McGloughlin is director of the University of California Biotechnology Research and Education Program,12 while the other, Alison L. Van Eenennaam, has worked for Monsanto.13
It's no wonder the funders of "No on Prop 37" would keep dipping into the UC Davis deep well of alleged academic experts. They obviously made an excellent investment, and it's payback time.
Monsanto Expert, Henry Miller: "I am Not a Stanford Professor, But I Play One on TV"
"No on Prop 37" has been putting Henry Miller front and center of its campaign. Miller has a long and sordid history14 of defending toxic chemicals such as DDT, in addition to working for Big Tobacco. He also tends to misrepresent himself quite a bit. As the Los Angeles Times15 reported, a "No on 37" ad had to be pulled off the air because Miller was identified as, "Dr. Henry I. Miller M.D., Stanford University, founding dir. FDA Office of Technology." Behind him in the shot was Stanford's recognizable vaulted campus walkway.
Just one problem: Miller is not a Stanford professor but a research fellow at the Hoover Institution, a conservative think tank that happens to be housed on the Stanford campus. Adding insult to injury, Stanford has a policy to not take positions on candidates or ballot measures, and does not allow political filming on campus.
Oops. The campaign admitted its error and edited the ad.
But the Stanford deception did not end there. Recently, the "Yes on 37" campaign complained16 that Stanford's policy was being violated once again, this time in at least two different "No on 37" flyers sent to California voters that identify Miller as, "Henry Miller, MD, Stanford University." The campaign claimed it wouldn't happen again... Right.
False Claims and Misrepresentations Used to Mislead Voters
The "No on 37" campaign has been caught using fraudulent misinformation to confuse voters again and again over the past several months. For example, on October 18, the "California Right to Know Yes on 37" campaign requested the U.S. Department of Justice conduct a criminal investigation of the "No on 37" campaign "for possible fraudulent misuse of the official seal of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration." According to the press release:17
"'The Justice Department should investigate this fraudulent dirty trick perpetrated by the 'No on 37' campaign,' said Gary Ruskin, campaign manager of 'California Right to Know Yes on 37.' 'They are running a campaign of lies, deceit and trickery, and some of it may be criminal.'
The 'No on 37' campaign affixed the FDA's seal to one of the campaign's mailers. Section 506 of the U.S. Criminal Code states: 'Whoever... knowingly uses, affixes, or impresses any such fraudulently made, forged, counterfeited, mutilated, or altered seal or facsimile thereof to or upon any certificate, instrument, commission, document, or paper of any description... shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.'
The letter also provides evidence that the 'No on 37' campaign falsely attributed a direct quote to the FDA in the campaign mailer. The quoted attribution, which appears below, is entirely false and fabricated. The FDA did not make this statement and does not take a position on Prop 37."
According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (the world's largest organization for food and nutrition professionals), "No on 37" also misled the public about the Academy's stance on genetically engineered foods in the Secretary of State's Official California Voter Information Guide.
The press release18 issued by the Academy reads in part:
"...the California Official Voter Information Guide regarding Proposition 37... inaccurately states that the Academy 'has concluded that biotech foods are safe.' The statement is false... We are concerned that California voters are being misled... Voters need accurate information in order to make an informed choice."
Fuzzy Logic Used to Confuse You on the Basic Issues
The anti-choice campaign likes to claim that Prop 37 was written by trial lawyers in order to hit small grocers and growers with lawsuits. The truth is that "Yes on Prop 37" is a grassroots effort, started by a concerned California grandmother who saw that there was no way of avoiding genetically engineered foods even if we wanted to, since they didn't have to be labeled.
The labeling campaign is about having the right to know what's in your food – just like you're informed about the nutritional content, and the presence of peanuts (important for those with allergies) and other food additives. Whether genetically engineered ingredients are good or bad for your health is really beside the point. Aspartame is not good for you, yet it's on the label, and people have the right to consume it as they please. That's all this is about – just state what it is on the label.
The Monsanto campaign claims Prop 37 is "anti-science" and would ban safe foods. This is nonsense, as Prop 37 doesn't ban anything. It simply requires the label to state whether the food contains genetically engineered ingredients or not. You're still free to sell it and buy it.
The only thing it prohibits is the mislabelling of GE foods as "all-natural," a term that many tend to associate with more organic standards – which GE crops cannot comply with. You're currently paying a premium for "all-natural" foods that actually use GE ingredients, thinking you're getting something better than conventional! THAT'S hurting your wallet. Accurately labeling these foods will not.
As for their argument that genetically engineered foods have been around for many years without health problems, this is another nonsensical claim, as there's no way of tracing any potential health problems back to the food without labelling! The potential truthfulness of their claim in fact hinges on GE foods remaining unlabeled. Without labelling there's simply no way to know, because there's no way to track or trace side effects like people can now do with aspartame, or any other food allergy.
Science Media Centre aka Big Biotech Spin Control
A related tactic to hiring academic experts one at a time to do your bidding is to corral them all into one really important sounding organization; often, an "institute." The Tobacco Institute was an arm of Big Tobacco that according to its own description,19 acted "as official spokesman for the industry, always reflecting official [strategy] position agreed upon by all members."
Moreover, spinning science through a sophisticated public relations campaign was paramount. The institute's main mission was:
"[P]ublicizing scientific research funded by the industry which produces counter evidence to unfavorable findings or, at least, helps to keep the question open."
Sounds unbelievable now, but for decades this strategy was so effective that it delayed policy action while millions died. Enter the Science Media Centre.20 Headquartered in the UK, there is also a US-based outlet.21 Their mission (like their name), sounds innocuous enough:22
"Our aim is to ensure that when a major science story breaks, we can quickly offer news desks a list of scientists available to comment, a summary of the main scientific points involved and details of which press officers or web sites to go to for further information."
They also provide handy tips in this document23 called, "Communicating risks in a soundbite: A guide for scientists," on how to respond to media questions by downplaying problems. For example, if a reporter asks, "Is it risky?" the scientist should get the journalist to instead ask about the benefits by replying, "the benefits outweigh the risks." Another suggested answer: "It is a very small risk. So small that I believe it is safe."
Why would a "science media center" put words into scientists' mouths?
Just take a look at the sources of funding, which include:24
- Bayer
- Biotechnology & Biological Sciences and Research Council
- CropLife (pesticide and biotech trade group)
- Monsanto
- Novartis
- Syngenta
Not exactly players with an objective view of science. This might explain why the center pounced25 on the recent French study showing organ damage and massive cancer tumors in rats fed GE corn. This was the first lifetime feeding study that has ever been conducted with GE food, so it was sure to be a major embarrassment to Big Biotech.
The very same day the French report was published came a press release26 from the Science Media Centre claiming "anomalies throughout the paper" despite the authors having been through the usual peer review process.
The main statement from the center was authored by Professor Maurice Moloney, head of Rothamsted Research, which was the target of a protest earlier this year.27 (A counter group formed at the time, calling itself "Sense about Science." This is a common tactic, to portray those who object to tinkering with nature as anti-science luddites.) Moloney is certainly not an objective scientist when it comes to genetically engineered foods, as his Porsche license plate with the letters GMO indicates.
Image Courtesy of SpinWatch.org
His bio28 includes working at biotech incubator Calgene (which was later bought by Monsanto), "where he developed the first transgenic oilseed plants using canola as the model crop," which became the basis of Monsanto's Roundup Ready and Liberty Link canola products."
How nice. So the man who gave us Monsanto's premiere product – Roundup Ready – doesn't think an independent study demonstrating harm from eating genetically engineered food is valid? Why am I not shocked?
Have You Fallen for Falsehoods?
Here is what should be shocking: that it's so easy for opponents of GMO labeling to insert such obviously biased scientific spin into the public discourse. According to GM Watch,29 Moloney's critique was picked up in numerous media outlets, at times, just attributed to unnamed "independent scientists." Mission accomplished.
In addition to using experts for hire as spokespeople, the "No on 37" campaign has engaged in numerous other underhanded tactics, getting caught each time.
For example, the "Yes on 37" campaign recently sent letters to the U.S. Department of Justice requesting a criminal investigation for possible fraudulent misuse of the official seal of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.30 "No on 37" included the FDA logo on a mailer31 sent to California voters, along with a quote falsely attributed to FDA saying the agency was opposed to Prop 37.
"No on 37" has also misrepresented the positions of several health and nutrition organizations,32 even going so far as to deceive Californians in the official voter guide.
How sad that Monsanto and friends must stoop so low to keep consumers in the dark about what they are eating. What are they trying to hide?
Passing Prop 37 is Key to Expanding Sustainable Agriculture in North America
It's quite evident that we have no real champions for food safety and labeling of genetically engineered foods within the federal government. As I recently reported, the last three U.S. Presidents and Presidential-hopeful Mitt Romney all have something health related in common – they all insist on 100% organic diets for their own families while promoting unlabeled GE foods on the rest of us.
But right now we do have a great opportunity to change this situation by circumventing Monsanto's posse entirely. Americans are becoming very aware of a significant problem with our food, and that starts with transparency.
Although many organic consumers and natural health activists already understand the importance of Proposition 37, it cannot be overemphasized that winning the battle over Prop 37 is perhaps the most important food fight Americans – not just Californians – have faced so far.
But in order to win this fight for the right to know what's in our food, we need your help. Please remember, the failure or success of this ballot initiative is wholly dependent on your support and funding! There are no major industry pockets funding this endeavor. In order to have a chance against the deep pockets of Big Biotech and transnational food corporations, it needs donations from average citizens.
So please, I strongly encourage you to make a donation to this cause. You can also contact EVERY person you know that lives in California and encourage them to view some of these videos and get educated on the issues so they can avoid succumbing to the propaganda, as Monsanto and company are paying tens of millions of dollars to deceive the voters in California. We need EVERY vote we can to win on November 6.
It's important to realize that getting this law passed in California would have the same overall effect as a national law, as large companies are not likely going to label their products as genetically engineered when sold in California (the 8th largest economy in the world), but not when sold in other states. Doing so would be a costly PR disaster. So please, I urge you to get involved and help in any way you can, regardless of what state you live in.
- Whether you live in California or not, please donate money to this historic effort, through the Organic Consumers Fund. If you live outside of the United States, you can still donate! For International Donations, please call (218) 353-7651!
- If you live in California and want to get involved, please contact CARightToKnow.org. They will go through all volunteer requests to put you into a position that is suitable for you, based on your stated interests and location.
- No matter where you live, please help spread the word in your personal networks, on Facebook, and Twitter. For help with the messaging, please see CARightToKnow.org.
- Talk to organic producers and stores and ask them to actively support the California Ballot. It may be the only chance we have to label genetically engineered foods.
For timely updates, please join the Organic Consumers Association on Facebook, or follow them on Twitter.

The Medina Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol are investigating a fatal two-car crash along State Route 18 in Granger Township.
29-year old Chad Nelson of Columbus died shortly after the crash according to the State Highway Patrol.
A car driven by 20-year-old Gilberto Ralios crossed the center line and crashed into another car, around 5:30 a.m. Thursday morning.
Ralios was alone in his car. Nelson was a passenger in a 1996 Chrysler LHS driven by 34-year-old Eric Kaskevic of Strongsville.
As Ralios' Ford Fusion caught fire, he was freed by two people who stopped to assist at the scene of the crash. Kaskevic was transported to MetroHealth Medical Center where he remains in fair condition.
Both Ralios and Nelson were taken to Akron General Medical Center. There is no word on Ralios' condition. Nelson later died from his injuries at the hospital.
Troopers say alcohol use appears to be a factor in the crash.

Preserving Objects by Brett Kelley (October 2009 Civil War News - Preservation Column)
Even before the Civil War ended, people understood that the war was a turning point in American history, a historic time that should be remembered.
Soldiers would send home mementos, whether a small fragment of a cherished flag or a piece of hardtack to remind them of the hardships they endured. Nearly every physical object connected to the war became a sacred relic. As the generation of soldiers who fought in the war passed, these valued artifacts would become curiosities to be bought and sold among collectors.
Civil War artifacts have always been big business, even during and directly after the war. With each major anniversary of the war, interest in Civil War artifacts grew. The 100th anniversary in 1961 saw the birth of a new generation of Civil War re-enactors who dedicated themselves to keeping the memory of those who fought in the war alive.
As interest in the Civil War grew, so did the demand for artifacts, droving up prices until it reached a fever pitch in the 1990s with the release of several popular films and documentaries.
It was during this time that the concept for The National Civil War Museum was conceived. With interest in the Civil War at an all time high, there was an opportunity to show the people of Harrisburg, Pa., how important their city was to the nation during the war.
Eventually, the concept of a museum about Harrisburg's role in the war was expanded to one dedicated to telling the entire story of the Civil War. The collections of The National Civil War Museum now rank among the best ever assembled for the benefit of the public.
During my years with the museum (starting with the construction of the building itself), I have seen many families and individuals donate their treasured Civil War artifacts into our care. I have had the pleasure of meeting people who have decided that the preservation of their family possessions for the benefit of future generations is more important than selling them for a large profit.
Families have shed tears when I arrived at their homes to pick up artifacts that they have held on to their entire lives as guardians of their family's past. Through these artifacts, they knew, respected and loved the great-great-grandfather that they had never met.
I have come to understand how difficult a decision it can be for a descendant who is so interested and attached to their family and our nation's history to give up that personal connection for the public good.
Some families prefer to keep these treasures in their family for the next generation. While this is a noble sentiment, their descendents may not wish to or be able to appropriately preserve them for the future. Unfortunately, it has become very easy to sell valuable artifacts on Web-based auctions.
Keeping artifacts in the family is a personal decision that should be respected. I always try to encourage donation of artifacts when I am in contact with a potential donor, but I make sure to explain that they are not severing their connection with their family history.
By donating to a museum, they are making a decision to ensure the preservation of their family's history and to share that history. Each donation is then available to everyone who wishes to benefit from it, whether they are part of this generation, the next or some distant generation. It will be there for them to learn from and be inspired by.
Often times, donors feel compelled to donate their artifacts to a specific museum for their own reasons. It may be that they grew up in the area where the museum is located, or their ancestor was from that area, or they may just appreciate the museum.
I tell many of our donors that I am happy to accept their artifacts for the museum, but they need to be comfortable with their decision. I will be just as happy to see their artifacts go to another museum of their choosing because I know it will be safe and I, just like everyone else, will be able to see it there.
When it comes down to food, shelter or artifacts, it is understandable that the wellbeing of a family is more important than holding onto artifacts. In a case such as this, one might consider this as a Civil War soldier providing for his family one last time.
The decisions made concerning becoming a donor are very personal. Whether a collection of artifacts is preserved in a museum or broken up and sold piece by piece, these sacred curiosities will remain in our care until the next generation makes their own decision.
Brett Kelley is Curator of Collections at The National Civil War Museum and was Registrar of Collections until 2004. He served in the United States Marine Corps from 1987 until March 1999 and holds a B.A. in American Studies from Pennsylvania State University. His great-great-grandfather fought in the 2nd Vermont, Co. G.

2. Complaint against the Better Business Bureau for dismissing my case
without notifying me.

Tel. 866-4112221
Dear Sir or Madam:
I wish to report America Invents, Inc., and specifically Mr. Bill Seidel, its CEO. I feel that their activities, in relation to me, were clearly fraudulent.
For $11,100, America Invents (AI) promised to do its best to license my patented sleep induction device, and this with great promises of success.
After 3 months, it became clear that Mr. Seidel fundamentally did not understand the product at all. I was astounded to learn, after all this time and my detailed explanations, that he was operating under the (very false) impression that it was a device to be placed on a nightstand. This convinced me that Mr. Seidel spent little time studying the material at hand. How can he seriously market a product when its basic nature is completely misunderstood?
My contract with America Invents specifically stated that they would send me monthly reports of contacts with companies. In six months, only one cursory report was sent, via Email. As nothing was happening after 6 months, I called the companies Mr. Seidel claimed to have contacted. No one had heard of Bill Seidel, nor of America Invents! When I asked Mr. Seidel for specific contact information relative to these companies, he refused to provide it.
In defense, Mr. Seidel claimed that it was difficult to license my invention because it has no research to back it up. Wrong again, because I had provided Mr. Seidel with extensive data from a sleep laboratory which clearly showed its beneficial effects.
I filed a complaint with the San Francisco Better Business bureau. They dismissed my complaint which included a request for reimbursement claiming that my Email address was invalid. This was false, my Email has always been valid and current. Furthermore, the Oakland BBB closed my case without ever attempting to contact me via telephone or regular mail.
In summary, I lost $11,100 via America Invents and Bill Seidel, with nothing to show for it but grief. Most importantly, I lost invaluable time in developing my product.

False report against America Invents and Bill Seidel
AUTHOR: Bill Seidel - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Sunday, July 22, 2012
Gerard Sunnens report of breach of contract is false, fabricated and damaging. It is hard to briefly respond to so many false accusations so Ill provide a brief overview and if you care to read the dirty details, item by item in response to his false report, they follow.
Brief Overview: I first refer you to our former clients conduct as he was found guilty of fraud, lying under oath to the State of New York[1] and drugging and raping his psychiatric patients. He was stripped of his medical license and this is relevant (in addition to being despicable) because he retained us to represent a medical product concept that required medical testing and medical claims. Concealing the revocation of his medical license caused serious credibility issues for our efforts and his concept.
This is an attack against my company and a personal attack against me because I confronted Mr. Sunnen about his criminal record and falsely portraying himself as a licensed doctor.
We responded in detail to his attorney in an attempt to mediate. When we provided the language in the Agreement and the dated e-mails (evidence he lied), his attorney stopped representing him, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) found in our favor and I expect you and your readers will recognize the truth as well.
In this correspondence I provide e-mails from Gerard Sunnen, in his own words that contradict his report to you. These e-mails are dated and state his thoughts at the time. He provides no evidence to support his claims because there is none however we provide his e-mails (below) that prove his claims to be false, in his own words. For example, it is false for him to claim After 3 months, Mr. Seidel did not understand the product when at month 2 his e-mails state, The brochure you sent me is great, I thank you, it describes the product really well. Everything in it is accurate and to the point. I have solid confidence in you.
In our 28 year history, we have achieved a lot of success with $1.5 billion in product sales, we are referred by leading publications and speak at some of the best universities and professional organizations. We honestly do our best to achieve success for every project we accept. We cant succeed with every project but we find out why and we make corrections based on our findings. Often we regroup and redefine the project. If it means appropriate medical testing then we can facilitate that. If it means redesign or additional protection then we can assist in those efforts. But in all situations we must be straight with our clients, even if they dont like it.
If I wanted to compile the worst case of bile and damning evidence against someone I couldnt top what the State of New York already did when they revoked his medical license by saying that he showed, a willful disregarded of the basic fundamentals, a cavalier disregard of appropriate standards and demonstrated an inexcusable lack of insight. We are simply agreeing with the State of New York because he displayed some of the same conduct with us.
After he terminated the Agreement early (breach) he contacted our contacts expecting to structure a deal (breach). Two months later, when that didnt work, he directed his attorney to mediate a resolution. He expressed six concerns, none were true or ever voiced to us. We replied item by item (as I have below) and provided the materials, updates, sited Paragraphs of his breach as well as the relevant e-mail records.
When we responded, his attorney admitted that Sunnen breached the agreement and lied to him as well and he stopped representing him. Sunnen had legal recourse but his attorney advised him that he would lose so he filed a false complaint with the BBB. When the BBB considered the evidence they closed it as resolved. Then he filed a false report with the Ripoff Report. There is only one reason why he would do this rather than seek legal restitution his allegations were false, he had no evidence and he knew he would lose.
Claim #1 Sunnen presents no evidence of fraud nor cited paragraphs of breach in his report to you. There are no e-mails or contract paragraphs that support his claims. In all of his e-mails, calls and correspondence he never voice any concerns and he has no record of concerns during the Agreement.
It is ironic that he would claim clearly fraudulent when he was found guilty of fraud by The State of New York (Order # ARB 96-48)[2]. He also repeatedly lied to the Medical Review Board as he is lying in his report to you.
He breached the Agreement as his attorney affirms, good faith (Paragraphs 2, 10 and 23), prohibited from contacting accounts (Paragraph 2 Appointment, and Paragraph 5 Protection Period), early termination during a non-cancellable term (Paragraph 4 and 19 Termination) and breach of Dispute Resolution (Paragraphs 13 and 14).
We abided by the Agreement, provided print materials to his approval and confidence, provided updates and more than regular contact. We got an audience with leading companies to consider this concept. The feedback was a poor prototype, no testimonials, no medical claims and no tests.
To overcome these problems we went above and beyond the required services and structured a deal with a leading sleep lab who agreed to test and develop the product (at their cost) and publish the studies. All of this met with Sunnens approval in advance. He directly contacted the research lab (breach) and cancelled the Agreement with us early (breach). He had free medical testing, a potential manufacturer and he sabotaged his own project.
Claim #2 - As per the Agreement he signed Paragraph 10 is titled, NO PROMISE OF SUCCESS (in caps). We are very clear that the areas of product development are high risk. For him to make this statement of great promises of success when the agreement he signed and initialed states the opposite, makes his claim false. Paragraph 10 states:
10. NO PROMISE OF SUCCESS. Client acknowledges that due to the inherent nature of technological innovations and the risk associated with bringing such innovations to the marketplace, no prospective licensee or buyer may desire to enter into a license or transfer agreement on terms acceptable to Client during the Term of this Agreement.
Claim #3 His claim is false, he states, After 3 months, it became clear that Mr. Seidel did not understand the product at all when at 2 months we were contacting companies with the print materials he approved. At month two, he stated, I have solid confidence in you. The brochure you sent me is great, (he bolded the copy) I thank you, it describes the product really well. Everything in it is accurate and to the point.
How could we have no understanding of the product concept after 3 months as he claims, when at 2 months he says our understanding is great and accurate? You can see his response on May 20, 2008 (Agreement signed March 19, 2008). His own words prove his report to be false:
From: GSunnen
Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2008 10:48 AM
To: Bill Seidel
Subject: Re: Delta Wave
Dear Bill,
The brochure you sent me is great, I thank you, it describes the product really well. Everything in it is accurate and to the point.
I have solid confidence in you.
The truth is that we understood the product concept very well, as he said. We knew the shortcomings of the prototype, the testing that was needed and the level of interest and concerns from the companies that we contacted. We had a very good understanding of the position in the marketplace for his concept. Dr. Sunnen knew his accusations were false and he maliciously fabricated this false report to you.
Claim #4 Mr. Sunnen canceled the Agreement in the fifth month so there was nothing after 6 months. We provided everything required including five update reports and two detailed reports. When we provided this information to his attorney he stopped representing him.
He knew the companies that expressed interest and he knew the status of the project at all times. He admits contacting these companies (breach) while at the same time he claims we didnt provide the company info. You see below, he has no concern at 3.8 months while agreeing with our strategy and he is satisfied with the progress:
From: GSunnen
Sent: Friday, July 04, 2008 1:24 PM
To: Bill Seidel
Subject: Re: contact information
Bill, good idea about Respironics, contacting Donald Spence. I agree with you about the attorneys there, all they want, it seems, is to protect themselves.
Have a Good Fourth,
As per Paragraph 2, he is to have no contact with any accounts and he admits he repeatedly violated the agreement by contacting these accounts (breach).
"2. APPOINTMENT. . . During the Term of this Agreement, Client shall not deal with any person or potential licensee or buyer concerning the Intellectual Property Rights or Product without express written consent from Agent. His claim to you is again false."
Claim #5 There is no extensive data, (attached is his two page report), it is not from a sleep laboratory and it does not clearly show its beneficial effects. His own report states its, inconclusive, an informal and in-house study, preliminary, a small sample size, no statistical significance and not for the purpose of publication. As a medical product it must make medical claims the claims must be proven and approved by the FDA as a 510(k) medical device. There is no research from which to make medical claims and certainly no extensive research. His statements on your web site are again false.
Claim #6 The Better Business Bureau responds to all complaints by mail as well as e-mail in a concise and administrative manner. The BBB read our response, recognized the evidence and found that he lied throughout. Mr. Sunnen could not and did not reply with any evidence or support for his false claims so the BBB dismissed his complaint and closed the case. It wasnt because the BBB had the wrong number its because Sunnen had no evidence.
Claim #7 The truth is that we offered to accept his project at no cost. It was his decision to reject that offer and pay America Invents. We did a lot of work on this project, he was satisfied throughout the process and we were willing to continue at no cost. In the three years that have lapsed absolutely nothing has happened with his concept. So regarding his lost invaluable time, there is none. His claim to you is false.
Summary: Gerard Sunnen has been proven guilty of fraud and lying under oath to the State of New York. He is angry with us for confronting his criminal record and he retaliates with false and libelous claims. There is no substance to his report and no facts to support his false accusations. If there was any substance to his report he would have real legal recourse instead of false internet accusations.
Mr. Sunnens e-mails contradict his claims in his report to you. It is false for him to claim After 3 months, Mr. Seidel did not understand the product when at month 2 we were using the print materials Sunnen approved and at the time he stated, I have solid confidence in you, Everything in it is accurate and to the point. It is false for him to claim great promises of success when the Agreement he signed states NO PROMISE OF SUCCESS. The report was two pages but no extensive data, not from a sleep laboratory and it does not clearly show its beneficial effects. All you need to do is review the two page study (not research) that Sunnen claims is extensive research and it is clear he is lying, as the study states: it is informal, preliminary, not conclusive and not for publication. It is not extensive data and the only thing it clearly shows is that further study is needed. His report to you is false.
When we provided the language in the Agreement and the e-mails (evidence that he lied), his attorney stopped representing him, the BBB found in our favor and I expect you and your readers will recognize the truth as well.
What Mark Twain said about reading the newspaper also applies today to the internet:
If you dont read the newspaper you are uninformed.
If you do read the newspaper you are misinformed.
I hope this helps to give you a better understanding of America Invents and myself. I thank you for considering the facts of this report on your web site.

Encore Fellowships are a smooth transitional pathway for our eligible pre-retirees wishing to contribute to the greater good after leaving Intel. It's a new stage of work, with greater flexibility and connection with the local community.
Intel Encore Career Fellowships are aimed at active Intel US employees who are retiring and wish to transition to a new stage of work with local nonprofit organizations, where they help the organization build capacity, operate more efficiently, and, ultimately, have a broader impact on their communities.
The Encore Career Fellowships Program fits exceptionally well with Intel's U.S. Retirement Services' goal of making the important life transition beyond midlife work into a positive experience for its workers and the company. The program offers eligible retirees:
- purposeful and flexible work beyond retirement (includes a stipend);
- a positive connection to Intel and to their local community; and
- a structured introduction to a network of new relationships and new opportunities
Encore Fellowships provide a way for Intel employees to expand their contributions to their communities. Intel has invested a great deal in its workforce and is happy to see that investment pay dividends as retirees work to help improve the quality of life in local communities. Intel retirees offer unique skills based on the depth and focus of their training and management over the course of their career.
Intel retirees bring a wealth of practical experience in communications, process improvement, information technology, planning, operations, administration, performance management, human resources, financial management and engineering – skills that can have a major impact on their nonprofit hosts.
Extending beyond Intel's historical commitment to employee volunteerism, Encore Fellows further strengthen social-purpose organizations in a new and innovative way: by participating in community programs that leverage the talent of an Intel retiree in a sustained manner.

"Leaving Intel at 56 after being so tightly bound to it for so long is like leaving a long, satisfying personal relationship, but I'm ready to jump...Sometimes we have to give ourselves permission to let go. Now I'm very committed to it, very convinced the Fellowship was the right choice to make."

Sonia Hodshire, 2012 Intel Encore Fellow from Albuquerque, NM

"I have a lot of time left and there's a whole other world out there outside of Intel that I want to explore...I kind of think of my Encore Fellowship as graduating from high school or leaving home for the first time."

As an attractive transitional option for Intel's current US employees who are retiring, Encore Fellowships fit well with the new Intel "phased retirement" program. The Intel pilot program is available to active US employees (General Full-time or General Part-time) in good standing who meet Intel's US retirement eligibility criteria and are not on an Improvement Required and/or Corrective Action Plan. Eligible employees must apply, be approved, log their retirement date, and match before separating from Intel in order to qualify.
Eligible Intel employees can apply year-round, but should inquire about the timeline and scheduling preferences of local programs. We will do our best to accommodate your application timing within the scheduling processes of the programs and ask for your support for the time needed to explore a quality match for the Fellow and the Work Host. Intel employee applicants are strongly encouraged to apply several months in advance of their planned retirement date.
The fellowship period itself begins after the Intel retiree has terminated and separated from the company, but the match must occur before separation. Actual start dates and work schedules are based on agreements among the Fellow, nonprofit Work Hosts and local program director. The assignment typically lasts six to 12 months, half or full time, and involves a commitment to 1,000 hours of work. Fellows are paid a set annual stipend of $25,000 and receive 6 months of paid COBRA coverage.
Each program is managed by a local program operator in partnership with Civic Ventures. The program operator develops roles for the fellows and coordinates the application and matching process. Applicants are carefully matched by the Program Operator with host organizations to ensure a cultural fit, skills match, compatibility with work environment and area of interest, position availability, and the ability to make an impact. Nonprofits are vetted for their readiness to apply the talents of the applicant. The matches are based on mutual agreement only and a match is not guaranteed. Intel is not involved in the matching process.
Fellows are embedded as part of the nonprofit staff. This practice allows them to deliver greater impact than the fellows could as volunteers, board members or short-term consultants. Throughout the year, the program operator brings local fellows and nonprofit executives together to share their experiences and offers other networking opportunities.
Intel has partnered with Civic Ventures, the originator of Encore Fellows, to participate in an Encore Fellows pilot for U.S. pre-retirees as part of the new Intel Retirement Services program rolling out in 2011. Video length: 3:03 |
Interested employees are encouraged to speak with the Intel program lead, Rick Henderson (firstname.lastname@example.com) or their local Community Affairs representative. To download an Intel Encore Fellows Program Brochure, click here.
Important Note: Eligible Intel employees must use the links on this page to the special Intel Encore Fellows online application form rather than the general application forms found on the websites listed below.
For more information about your local program and timelines, please contact your nearest organization. Applicants who are interested in Fellowships outside these locations are also invited to apply, but should allow more time for the matching process.

"I thoroughly enjoyed my career at Intel. But as with all things it was time to explore other opportunities. When Human Resources told me about Encore Fellows, I felt that synchronicity was playing a role in my decision to do my part to help people in need. The fact that I had Intel's blessing made it an easier decision to retire and do what my heart felt I needed to do."

RETIREES and over-65s are racking up debt faster than ever and are also failing to make repayments in record numbers.
The default rate for people over 75 has soared more than 200 per cent during the past 10 years. For over-65s it has jumped 150 per cent.
A report from credit rating and research company Veda shows older Australians have become more reliant on credit than ever before as many struggle to make ends meet.
By contrast, Veda found credit cards are falling out of favour with younger Australians.
Card applications for 18-to-20-year-olds fell as they strove to avoid debt.
But it was the financial pressure on older Australians that prompted the strongest reaction from finance experts.
Veda general manager of consumer risk Angus Luffman said most of the defaults centred on everyday living expenses such as utility accounts.
Financial Counselling Australia chief executive Fiona Guthrie said it could be hard to reduce spending once people hit retirement.
"After retirement, some people find that their incomes have decreased but their credit card limits can be quite high," Ms Guthrie said.
"The adjustment can be hard but the more insidious reason is that many older Australian are simply poor. They may be using credit to simply make ends meet," she said.

Awards will upgrade NOAA advanced weather satellites
Raytheon Co. has won two NASA contracts for satellite systems and infrared imaging technology support that have a combined potential value of more than $1.7 billion over eight years.
These contracts were awarded by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center and replace previous government awards worth approximately $1.4 billion, according to a Raytheon announcement released today.
The contracts are specifically designated for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Joint Polar Satellite System, which includes satellites and sensors for next-generation civil weather and climate measurements.
JPSS is the successor to the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System.
The program was created earlier this year when the federal government restructured NPOESS into a civilian portion, JPSS, and a defense portion, the Defense Weather Satellite System, or DWSS, according to the statement.
The JPSS Common Ground System award covers development of the command, control and communications segment; the interface data processing segment; operations and support; and system maintenance.
The contract will result in uninterrupted support for both civilian and defense weather needs, Lynn Dugle, president of Raytheon Intelligence and Information Systems, said in the statement.
"It allows Raytheon to continue the development and evolution of the ground system into an exceptional operational program for JPSS and DWSS," Dugle said.
The second JPSS contract covers the completion of the Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite, or VIIRS, which provides advanced imaging and radiometric capabilities.
"The experience we gained building the first VIIRS instrument has led to efficiencies in the development of the second flight unit," said Bill Hart, vice president of Space Systems within Raytheon's Space and Airborne Systems business unit, in the statement.
Raytheon Co., of Waltham, Mass., ranks No. 4 on Washington Technology's 2010 Top 100 list of the largest federal government contractors.

Not that I am against this type of a union, the price will be paid in the future. As we marginalize fatherhood and motherhood the children will bear the ultimate cost. Just a thought.
I would rather see children growing up to learn that everybody is equal and diversity is a good thing.

- Cuisines: European, Fusion
NileGuide Expert Says:
An equally good spot for lunch with friends or a romantic dinner a deux.
NileGuide Expert tip:
Don't miss the signature dessert - crepes suzette cooked at your table.
- Once a beautiful old chapel, the setting for White Rabbit retains a 19th Century Victorian feel. The restaurant has even preserved the stain glass windows. Inside an adventurous menu echoes Lewis Carroll, with culinary risks that are hit and miss. The Restaurant's signature dishes include Mac and Cheese and Deconstructed Black Forest Cake, but quality varies depending on the chef. White Rabbit also occasionally has live music. Make sure to pack your patience because the wait for food can be painfully long.

How We Shop |
How We Live is is an ongoing look at how life is lived in America today. The series will explore debates about city planning and development, and cover new ideas affecting how we live and work. In this installment, Ray Suarez looks at architect Rem Koolhaas's efforts to reshape the shopping environment to one where the design of the store is as crucial as the merchandise. The Dutch architect recently designed a store for Italian fashion house Prada, which opened in New York in December 2001. The high-tech "epicenter" store is an example of such a design-centered shopping environment. |
