...no, not exactly? I mean yes, were you to follow suit, there would have been two outcomes; Misnomer posted the right thing, you copy, you look good, OR Misnomer posted the wrong thing to see if he could catch people out, you say the wrong thing, he calls you out. We reach a familiar scenario; you could have then said that you were merely trying to continue the falsehood to catch scum out, or you could have said he was the one who was wrong and we'd be in the exact same place we are now with the roles reversed by oh gog that was a ridiculously long and unclear hypothetical that did absolutely nothing to make me happier with the idea of you being scum well done me.a-wan wrote:If I'm scum, then wouldn't I know that Misnomer got it right and just follow suit?
It's fine, but not foolproof, because you assume you would have been blocked because it was obvious who you were going to target. You had to assume. With Misnomer, you didn't. So why did you not switch to a from-your-point-of-view certain mafioso? Am I missing something?
If I'm scum, then wouldn't I know that Misnomer got it right and just follow suit?
...I really need to stop making these posts in bed, because I never get the chance to actually sit there and think about it. As far as I'm concerned, though, despite Lorenz saying that receiving notification of a failed action is "farfetched", I'm wondering what I would do in EP's shoes and to be honest unless I fancied having a handful of rather bemused people asking whether or not I forgot their action, I'd probably tell them. It's the sort of info you'd think we'd oughta get as well; Minsomer would never have known that his supposed kill had actually failed if he hadn't been told, given that he targeted the otherwise deceased jayhsu. I probably should stop trying to read the mod's mind, but at least you can see where I'm coming from, right?
The lack of input from softchews is beginning to get annoying
If I'm scum then:
1. Misnomer is town
2. Lorenz is town
3. softchews is town
4. Sruixan is town (he didn't say this, of course, but it's implied)
Well yes, that is exactly what I was really rather hoping for and was trying not to state outright so as not to plant a seed in a scum softchews's mind. As it happened, that turned out not to be the case, which means it's back to the drawing board.a-wan wrote:Oh, I guess he thinks that softchews did it? Convenient that softchews hasn't claimed yet, then, isn't it?
Lorenz wrote:So now someone else can go ahead and tie the vote? You should vote a-wan to avoid someone tying it?
Lorenz wrote:Mod: if the doctor didn't guess both targets correctly (in case she decided to try), did the doctor fail completely?
Lorenz wrote:I trust sruixan because they have acted in a townie manner, scum-hunting and making coherent posts all the time, and I haven't found any faulty logic within them.
My assumption of him being town also lead me to the conclusion that both a-wan and misnomer were scum, which came true, and it also lead me to shoot e_e. It's like playing Sudoku and taking a guess, if you're wrong you're eventually going to get your assumption disproven. That hasn't happened.
I don't think I have anything more to comment until the rest of the claims.
Don't agree with this. Just because you have 'if Sruixan is town, then a-wan and Misnomer are scum', doesn't mean that if a-wan and Misnomer are scum, Sruixan is town.
Btw, do you think it's more likely it's 2-2 or 3-1? I obviously fail at counting based on my earlier post, but I see no good reason to assume either.

Dec. 26, 2012 – Ah, here we are again — it's Christmas Eve, and I'm enjoying it already.
Later this evening all around Susanville and Lassen County, the little ones will be rubbing their eyes — trying to stay awake — hoping they might actually be lucky enough to hear the noisy clatter of reindeer hooves on the slippery rooftop, the heavy footsteps of a jolly, bearded, old saint clad in black boots and a red and white suit or his belly bursting, "Ho, ho, ho!" ringing out across our snow-covered desert. Maybe if they're really lucky they might even catch a glimpse of this gent and his team sailing across the Christmas moon (that good old Waxing Gibbous) as they lumber off in their present-laden sleigh to visit other homes in Standish or Litchfield or Doyle or Herlong. They know they will have to have been really, really good all year long to even have a chance of meeting Santa Claus on Christmas Eve. Still, they'll rub their eyes hard and wish and wish and wish.
Yes, when bedtime comes they'll begrudgingly crawl beneath the covers in their cozy pajamas and cling to their pillows, dreaming of those wondrous wonders hidden inside the brightly colored presents they'll find all ribboned and bowed and wrapped beneath the Christmas tree when that long, thin dawn cracks the morning sky and the sun finally pokes its blazing head over the Skedaddle Mountains on the eastern edge of the Honey Lake Valley.
They know as they lay their heads down to sleep Christmas morning will come — one way or another — no matter whatever else might happen.
Downstairs, Mom and Dad and Grandma and Grandpa and the rest of the old ones will finish all the preparations, making sure everything will be as perfect as can be when the little ones kick off their blankets and run to the tree with a yell and a shout at the first morning light.
Christmas is a day for families, a day for love and joy, a day for giving and receiving. And we shouldn't forget the real reason for the season — the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
As you and yours gather for your own holiday celebration, I'd like to wish you all a very Merry and Happy Christmas.

I am planning to create a website that will curate selected posts from around 30 blogs in a specific niche and organize them into a detailed hierarchy that makes it very easy for visitors to access all the content on any given topic or sub-topic. There will also be a range of tools that make it easier to discover related topics within the hierarchy.
The site database will only store the title, the URL and a short excerpt from each contributing post. When the visitor selects a post to read, she will not be redirected to the original post. Instead it will be displayed in an IFRAME below a simple Twitter-style header bar that includes widgets for rating and sharing the post. The branding of the original page and all its links will be left intact, enabling the visitor to navigate directly to the source in a single click.
My goal is not to plagiarize other peoples' content, or even to disguise its origin, but simply to organize it in a manner that yields more than the sum of the parts, together with tools for collectively rating it
Does anyone have any views about the ethics of this approach?

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Sergio Garcia thinks it won't be long before Tiger Woods returns to tournament play.
Woods is taking an indefinite break from golf since his Nov. 27 car accident in Florida and subsequent revelations of extra marital affairs.
Woods has not been seen in public since the crash, and there has been no word on a date for his return.
But Garcia says he has "the feeling that it's going to be earlier than what everybody thinks."
Garcia, who has been a top rival of Woods on the PGA Tour for 10 years, says the "best thing for Tiger at the moment is to get on the course and do what he knows best."
The Spaniard spoke Tuesday before the Abu Dhabi Championship.

Influential MPI Task Force Outlines Forward-Looking, Pragmatic Vision to Strengthen Competitiveness for U.S., Mexico, & Central from Migration Policy Institute on Vimeo.
D.C. Event Audio
This final report by the Regional Migration Study Group outlines the powerful demographic, economic, and social forces reshaping Mexico and much of Central America and changing longstanding migration dynamics with the United States. The Study Group, co-chaired by former Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo, former US Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez, and former Guatemalan Vice President and Foreign Minister Eduardo Stein, offers a forward-looking, pragmatic agenda for the United States, Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras — focusing on new collaborative approaches on migration and human-capital development to strengthen regional competitiveness.
The report caps a 2 ½-year initiative that focused on extensive consultations with policymakers and civil society in the region; produced more than two dozen research reports, policy briefs, and briefing papers; and involved extensive deliberations by Study Group members. The final report offers 14 findings and recommendations for policymakers in the region, some focused on the current US legislative debate, others directed at Mexico and Central America.
The report notes that there have been no systematic conversations about what a regional approach to migration might look like since discussions initiated by Presidents Bush and Fox were derailed by the 9/11 attacks. Yet few issues shape and define the US relationship with Mexico and Central America as much as migration. And with an estimated 14.3 million immigrants from Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras living in the United States — representing more than one-third of the foreign-born population overall and nearly three-quarters of unauthorized immigrants — US immigration policy has significant regional implications.
Getting migration and related issues right is vital to the region's long-term economic growth, prosperity, social order and security — and, in many ways, its competitiveness in a fast-changing, interdependent global economy.

Mexican Migration to the United States: Underlying Economic Factors and Possible Scenarios for Future Flows By Daniel Chiquiar and Alejandrina Salcedo The recent history of Mexican migration to the United States is one marked by high flows during the 1990s that reached a peak in 2000 and then dropped, plummeting sharply with softening of the US construction sector in 2007 and onset of the recession the following year. What will migration from Mexico to the United States look like in the future? This report by two economists examines economic factors that have influenced contemporary flows and offers scenarios on how such flows could evolve over the next several years.

Strengthening Health Systems in North and Central America: What Role for Migration? By Allison Squires and Hiram Beltrán-Sánchez International nurse migration is a multibillion-dollar global phenomenon. Historically, Mexicans and Central Americans have not played a significant part in the migration of nurses to the United States. This report examines the health care sector in El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and the United States, reviewing their health care systems, demand for services, epidemiological profiles, and demographics. Using migration to meet health care demand is complex; it does, however, hold the potential for benefits to health care systems, economies, and patient outcomes.

Ripe with Change: Evolving Farm Labor Markets in the United States, Mexico, and Central America By Philip Martin and J. Edward Taylor Mexico is in the transitional phase of being both farm labor exporter and importer: serving as the major supplier of hired labor to US farms but increasingly also relying on farm workers from Guatemala. This report examines the labor market dynamics of the region, focusing on changes in the volume and composition of production, the supermarket revolution in Latin America, training and education changes, and more. It assesses the implications of these changes on workers and migration. Download Report | Spanish-Language Brief
Manufacturing in the United States, Mexico, and Central America: Implications for Competitiveness and Migration By Peter A. Creticos and Eleanor Sohnen The manufacturing sector is a significant source of employment for workers from Mexico and Central America's Northern Triangle — with an estimated 17 percent employed in manufacturing in Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador, and immigrants from these countries making up 8 percent of the US manufacturing workforce. This report examines how aggressive manufacturing-attraction strategies have benefited the economies of Mexico, and to a lesser extent, the Northern Triangle. Yet the achievements of the maquiladora development strategy have masked important flaws that threaten to stymie the promise of even greater economic growth. The report outlines the need for the regional workforce to gain the skills to compete with counterparts in advanced manufacturing regions such as northern Europe and Japan, as well as for credentialing standards, training systems, and outcome measures that are comparable to those in industrialized economies.

Crime and Violence in Mexico and Central America: An Evolving but Incomplete US Policy Response By Andrew Selee, Cynthia J. Arnson, and Eric L. Olson Amid dramatic increases in crime and violence in Mexico and Central America, the US government has significantly increased its attention to public security issues in the region since 2007, with the Merida Initiative and the Central American Regional Security Initiative. The US policy response has been hampered to an extent, however, by US and regional obstacles. The authors suggest the policy emphasis has begun to shift in important ways, with more attention paid to addressing the citizen security crisis — a move away from the earlier near-total focus on combating drug trafficking and transnational crime.

If baby artichokes are not available, use two regular artichokes and simply trim and remove chokes, cut each into eighths and follow the recipe as written for baby artichokes.
12 baby artichokes (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 can (14 to 14 1/2 ounces) chicken broth
1 package (16 ounces) bow-tie or farfalle pasta
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1/3 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves, cut into thin strips
1. Trim baby artichokes: Bend back the outer green leaves and snap them off at the base until leaves are half green (at the top) and half yellow (at the bottom). Cut off stems and across top of each artichoke at point where yellow meets green. Cut each artichoke lengthwise in half.
2. In nonstick 12-inch skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook 7 minutes; add garlic and cook 3 minutes longer.
3. Add white wine, salt, red pepper, and 1 1/2 cups chicken broth; heat to boiling over high heat. Add artichokes; heat to boiling. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer just until artichokes are tender, about 15 minutes or until knife inserted in bottom of artichoke goes through easily.
4. Meanwhile, in saucepot, prepare pasta in boiling salted water as label directs.
5. In cup, mix cornstarch with remaining chicken broth; stir into artichoke mixture; heat to boiling over high heat. Boil 1 minute.
6. Drain pasta and place in large serving bowl; toss with artichoke mixture and basil.

Jack Edwards Is At It Again!
Last week, we had the distinct pleasure of sharing with you the 13 craziest clips of former SportsCenter anchor and current Boston Bruins announcer Jack Edwards. His greatest hits range from bizarre German accents to bizarre speeches to bizarre yelling to bizarre American history lessons. Come to think of it, all of the clips are bizarre... but definitely entertaining. I don't even think you can classify it as either "good" or "awful" announcing... it stands on its own, unique merit. Regardless, Crazy Jack is swiftly becoming one of AA's favorites. He was at it again after Boston's Game 7 OT win over the hated Canadiens. Congrats if you spun the Jack Edwards Roulette Wheel Of Insanity and landed on American history lesson. You're a winner tonight!

The chartered Zarathustra Company had it all their way. Their charter was for a Class III uninhabited planet, which Zarathustra was, and it meant they owned the planet lock stock and barrel. They exploited it, developed it and reaped the huge profits from it without interference from the Colonial Government. Then Jack Holloway, a sunstone prospector, appeared on the scene with his family of Fuzzies and the passionate conviction that they were not cute animals but little people.
This is the book that let me know a story could be both cute AND smart! I love it. It's one of the few books I'll read again and again with the same level of enjoyment as the first time.
In LITTLE FUZZY by HENRY BEAM PIPER, a frontiersman mining "sunstones" encounters a hairy little creature that piques his curiosity. After adopting one "little fuzzy," Pappy Jack Holloway quickly finds himself attached to a whole family of them. Pretty soon he is convinced that they are not just animals, but also intelligent beings. This creates a problem for the company that is systematically mining the planet and harvesting its resources. If an intelligent species is discovered, then the company's… (more)

Many people are looking for work, while at the same time some employers say they can't find skilled applicants to fill jobs. We're reporting on the "skills gap" this week in our series, Project Milwaukee: Help Wanted.The disconnect between jobs and workers is a relatively new phenomenon in Milwaukee. During the city's manufacturing heyday, from the late 1800s until the 1970s, there were thousands of jobs in the Menomonee Valley alone – and a steady stream of workers to fill them.
Throughout the fall of 1862, Wisconsin soldiers were making a name for themselves for their ferocious fighting in several major battles - most notably the Black Hats of the West gained their better known moninker The Iron Brigade after an epic battle at Sout Mountain 150 years ago last month.
Those of us who ride the bus on a regular basis take it for granted that the man – or woman – behind the wheel is going to get us where we're going safely. But few of us give much thought to the driver and what he or she does, aside from stopping the bus, opening the doors, and accepting fares.
There's been increasing talk lately about the "skills gap" – the phenomenon of employers unable to find skilled workers. WUWM examines the issue in the series Project Milwaukee: Help Wanted.The stories will air all next week on Morning Edition, Lake Effect and All Things Considered. WUWM also will host a community forum at MATC on Tuesday Oct. 30. We'll ask expert panelists and audience members to talk about the role government, educators and other groups have, in connecting workers and jobs.
Sunday's mass shooting at a Brookfield salon has prompted some Wisconsin legislators to call for stricter gun laws. Police say Radcliffe Haughton shot and killed his estranged wife Zina Haughton and two of her co-workers at the Azana Salon, then turned the gun on himself. As WUWM's Marti Mikkelson reports, a national study released today supports several proposals suggested here.

ABS by Allen Schwartz: Dresses for Travel
By Beth Blair on December 4, 2013
Ahhhh, formal night. It's one of the details I love most about cruising. If you've never cruised before, let me explain. Depending upon the cruise line, there are normally two dress codes for dinner: casual wear and formal wear. Casual is basically "look nice". Formal is "look your best". Of the several cruises I've taken I've come to realize that passengers define what their idea of formal is. Some ladies wear cute casual sundresses while others wear extravagant dresses fit for a ball. The same goes for men. I've seen Polo shirts and khakis as well as black tuxes. Most cruise ships have professional photographers on hand ready to capture the special evening for your mantel at home or so you can create your annual Christmas cards. Personally, I enjoy formal nights because, for me, [Read more]

The heading "Arguments over banning guns" that Dispatch Editorial Cartoonist Nate Beeler chose for his pro-gun editorial cartoon in Sunday's Dispatch was misleading, and it oversimplified a complex issue. No one in his right mind is in favor of banning guns.
The Supreme Court has affirmed the constitutional right of law-abiding citizens to own guns. Hunters need rifles, and many homeowners feel the need to protect themselves and their families with handguns. Therefore, the idea of "banning guns" is ludicrous.
The ongoing debate in this country is centered on two questions: Does the average citizen truly need military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines? And why not require background checks at gun shows?
By suggesting that people who favor sensible restrictions are actually seeking to ban all guns, Beeler does a disservice to an issue that deserves honest, thoughtful debate.

The rooms are OK, but the parking lot is very limited and we had to park in a different hotel or leave the car in the street. Plus there was no hot water!Virkelige gjesteanmeldelser
"Very satisfied"
We stayed 5 nights. A young couple, who are the managers, were very attentive and devoted to good service. They are in a continual process of improving the property and doing the best possible job. We were very pleased with the very large room (at no extra cost), comfortable bed, cleanliness, and attention we received. I found out that reserving through […] a hotel's website matches any price on the internet, which best helps their survival. Overall, we highly recommend this hotel and will stay here again.

TRU around here has been stocking the Lost Line wave repeatedly. For the past few weeks all of the figures have been available, even Leia and the Sandtrooper, which seem to go the fastest elsewhere. I haven't seen any evidence of any other waves showing up yet though.
There seems to be plenty of Speeder Bikes and Ewoks at the moment.

There's not too much to discuss about what is ahead for the day. Prosecutor Kelly told Judge Casper he had two witnesses, one an FBI person from the West Coast who took the guns and money from Whitey's Santa Monica apartment, and another one, whose identity I don't know.
There shouldn't be much to ask the gun and money guy on cross-examination, nor perhaps the other witness. So we can expect the government to end its case today, perhaps even before the morning recess.
Then I expect there will be a legal argument on whether the government has produced enough evidence to support the allegations in the indictments. That can be short or long, depending on the judge but it will be of no moment. The government has well proven most of its indictments if not all. The judge will give counsel time to make their points, deny the motion, and then say: "Mr Carney?"
As you know the defense is under no obligation to do anything in a criminal case. Carney with the consent of his client could stand up and say: "the defense is offering no evidence." He could then argue to the jury, who'd have the same looks on their face as Judge Casper had when Carney suggested to her that Pat Nee had no Fifth Amendment rights, that the government failed to prove its case. But that won't happen.
Keep in mind, Whitey isn't dumb so he knows he'll be found guilty by the jury. He has to switch over to plan B, which is delay. His goal under that plan is to drag out the trial for as long as possible so that he can stay incarcerated at Plymouth. He knows that is as good as it is ever going to be. Carney and Brennan, his lawyers, have gotten the brutal sadistic guards off his back so he doesn't have to worry about the sub-human treatment he had received when he first arrived there - five or more strip searches a day among other things. Don't understand the mentality of these guards who do that. Must have been school yard bullies picking on an 80-year-old defenseless guy.
He is smart enough to know he buried under a landfill of evidence. For all the government's excursions into fields of unimportance, he still knows he has no chance. The evidence is too great even though those who brought it into the courtroom and took the stand are the worst of the worst. The biggest evidence against him - which the prosecutor cleverly points out here and there - is these despicable men are his buddies. The worse he makes them look, the worse he looks. You make Flemmi a pedophile, you look to see who is Flemmi's best friend.
There is no general defense he can offer. He can't claim Jeremiah O'Sullivan gave him immunity to commit the crimes. For what? He says he was not an informant. So what great benefit could he have offered O'Sullivan. Even if he could conjure up something, it wouldn't matter, that defense has been ruled out.
He can't expect the jury to throw everything out on jury nullification type finding. The sense that the government's conduct in bringing this case was outrageous has not come across, at least I didn't feel there was anything close to a huge injustice. The best that can be said is the FBI had a few bad men but the prosecutors have distanced the government from them sufficiently to avoid being tainted by them.
Add to that, the defendant is putting on a case which is usually not done if you expect jury nullification. To get it, I'd think that you must be able to throw up your hands in utter disgust and suggest to the jury that the government's case is so blatantly bogus and corrupt that it would insult them to put on any evidence and if they seek to convict the defendant they will become partners in the government's ill deeds. The jurors may be tired of Wyshak's overbearing whining act but not to the extent they'll want to give Whitey a pass.
Whitey goes into the second part of the case devoid of hope. All he can do is delay his day of demise. Nothing will change. There is one little thing that he can grasp for and I expect he will. It is to tell his story. This is the last chance he'll ever have to speak.
It is as if he is standing on the gallows and watching the hangman adjusting the knot and seeing the man holding the hood walking toward him. The head jailer in accordance with tradition says to him, "ya got any last words ya wanta say? Speak now or forever hold your peace." For where Whitey is going no words of his will emanate beyond the walls of his cell.
The four car state police caravan carrying Whitey, sirens blaring, just passed me in their mad rush to bring him to the courthouse. It's sort of fitting that it did as I'm writing these words.
I did mention the Atlantic Coast, I guess my mind must have slipped over to the Atlantic Coast Conference football, which is about to gear up again. BC will play its first game before the end of next month, by then Whitey's trial will have ended no matter how much delay his counsel can bring about.
I don't expect there will be much happening today that will give you something to think about over the weekend. Tomorrow, rather than a weekly wrap I'll write a wrap up of the prosecution's case.

AEG Live's negligence allegedly included executives ignoring a series of red flags that Jackson lawyers say should have alerted them that Murray was a danger to Jackson.
Murray was kept on the job despite warning signs that Jackson's health had deteriorated by the middle of June to the point that he could not remember song lyrics or perform trademark dance moves; he was hearing voices and talking to himself; and he was suffering chills during summertime rehearsals, Jackson lawyers say.
Assistant show director Alif Sankey testified that she screamed at show director Kenny Ortega in a phone call after a June 19 rehearsal, begging that he get help for Jackson. "I kept saying that 'Michael is dying, he's dying, he's leaving us, he needs to be put in a hospital,' " Sankey said. " 'Please do something. Please, please.' I kept saying that. I asked him why no one had seen what I had seen. He said he didn't know."
Jackson died a few days later.
Karen Faye, the pop singer's makeup artist, said Jackson seemed "frightened" and was talking to himself, repeating "the same thing over and over again" at that rehearsal.
Tour production manager John "Bugzee" Hougdahl sent an email to AEG Live CEO Randy Phillips the next morning. "I have watched him deteriorate in front of my eyes over the last 8 weeks. He was able to do multiple 360 spins back in April. He'd fall on his ass if he tried now," Hougdahl wrote. "He was a basket case and Kenny (Ortega) was concerned he would embarrass himself on stage, or worse yet -- get hurt. The company is rehearsing right now, but the DOUBT is pervasive."
Ortega sounded a warning the same day in an email to Phillips describing "strong signs of paranoia, anxiety and obsessive-like behavior" from Jackson. "I think the very best thing we can do is get a top psychiatrist to evaluate him ASAP."
Ortega testified that with just a dozen days left for rehearsals before the touring company moved to London for the opening, he "felt that we should stop" the production on June 19, but he was "torn because I did not want to break Michael's heart."
Instead of stopping the rehearsals, getting a another doctor to check Jackson or replace Murray, Phillips met with Murray and put him in charge of making sure Jackson missed no more rehearsals.
Phillips sent an email to Ortega after the meeting saying he had confidence in Murray, "who I am gaining immense respect for as I get to deal with him more. This doctor is extremely successful (we check everyone out) and does not need this gig, so he (is) totally unbiased and ethical."
AEG Live says that Jackson appeared much better on June 23 and 24, the rehearsals that are seen in the "This Is It" documentary. Jackson died on the morning of June 25.
Questions No. 6-13
If jurors get to question six, it means they've decided AEG Live is liable in Jackson's death. The next eight questions would decide a dollar figure for the economic and noneconomic damages suffered by his mother and children.
California law allows Jackson's heirs to sue for the lost earnings capacity -- the amount of money he could reasonably be expected to earn had he not died on June 25, 2009. Since Jackson was arguably one of the most successful entertainers in history, the damage amount could be enormous.
Contrary to what many media outlets have reported, the Jacksons never asked for $40 billion. In fact, by law the complaint does not state an amount. It is something that the lawyers may argue in court based on testimony and evidence presented in the trial.
Even though AEG Live sold out Jackson's 50 London shows in record time and their executives had placed a big bet on Jackson's earning power, their lawyers worked to convince jurors that Jackson was a has-been with limited future earning potential. One of their experts testified that he believed that Jackson might not have earned another dime in his career.
Eric Briggs based his conclusion on testimony by a Jackson sleep expert that the singer was near death from lack of sleep, even if he had not overdosed on propofol. Harvard sleep expert Dr. Charles Czeisler testified he believed that Murray's infusions of propofol robbed Jackson of essential REM sleep that would have eventually proved fatal unless stopped. The drug interrupts crucial REM sleep cycles, depriving the brain of real rest and repair, the expert said.
Jackson lawyers scoffed at Briggs' use of that theory, arguing that AEG Live would still be liable for that eventual death.
Briggs also questioned if Jackson would have been able to complete another world tour because of his health and poor demand for tickets. He testified that "significantly negative headlines, drug abuse and other issues" had ruined Jackson's ability to earn endorsement and sponsorship money.
A Jackson expert concluded that he was reasonably certain the pop icon would have earned $1.5 billion touring the world over the next several years had he not died. He based his estimates on AEG Live's own projections developed when its executives were planning to take Jackson on tour in the year before his death.
Jackson lawyers might suggest to jurors that they add additional damages based on what they think the entertainer might have earned if he had begun making films after completing his world tour. His son Prince and nephew Taj Jackson both testified about his plans to conquer the movie world next.
Jurors would also place a dollar value on the noneconomic damages suffered by Jackson's mother and three children. The jury did hear during the trial that daughter Paris Jackson, 15, tried to kill herself in June. It is not clear if Jackson lawyer Brian Panish will point to Paris' emotional problems, which the lawyers have blamed on the loss of her father, when he argues for noneconomic damages.
Questions No. 14-16
The amount of damages calculated by the jury could be significantly reduced when they reach the last three questions on their verdict form. These ask them to decide how much, if any, Michael Jackson's own negligence was a factor in his death.
Panish has stated publicly that Jackson shares some of the liability for his own demise, but he has not suggested a percentage. Jurors will be asked to assign a percentage of blame to Jackson and to AEG Live. The concert promoter would then be ordered to pay the percentage of the damages that equals its share of blame as determined by the jury.

That's -- point.
I found that there I'm gonna get the -- a second Scott you're gonna get into this is this is about Bill Clinton okay.
Yeah we're gonna play a major role of this is Democrat national convention he is stepping up to the plate at a critical time for President Obama.
But is it a good strategy when President Clinton has in the past because -- set things like this.
A government that is leaner not meaner and a government that expands opportunity not bureaucracy.
A government that understands that jobs must come from growth -- a vibrant and bottles system of free enterprise.
-- you know -- could be -- accused of overdoing this.
Although obviously pointing -- the president and has a different view a private enterprise and taxation from the current president Barack Obama.
But let's bring in Greg value -- the Potomac research group DC.
Do you think.
That using a centrist.
-- -- president.
To nominate a current leftist president is a good political move for the leftist president.
Not necessarily Stuart good morning -- I think there's a real risk here.
That that the contrasts are so blatant here you've got somebody who.
People do you know universally.
Like thought would get a great job on the economy someone who like business someone who got it someone who read great instincts.
It as opposed to a president whose very cerebral but a little aloof doesn't understand business mean the contrasts as you point out are quite striking.
I agree with you hot idea if this could back -- -- accrued you -- value I've got Scott Rasmussen -- pulse the supreme.
And he said earlier that this could be a pull offs I were Obama I believe it will be a plus for the president.
And the reason I do that is because Bill Clinton is gifted when he has time to work through his message -- will find a way to to get his message and President Obama is insane now.
That won't prevent the president from going off message during -- debate or something else that could change it.
But I believe associated -- Bill Clinton is a plus for Barack Obama at this time.
You -- -- come back on night Greg.
No I I would -- this point guys I do think obviously Bill Clinton wants to keep the Clinton brand alive for 2016.
Have there been polls as Scott knows there was an Iowa poll last week that showed overwhelmingly Democrats in that state would -- Hillary for the nomination 2016.
Not sure it.
If she wants or not but if she wants it it's hers.
And let me express another opinion I think this is a measure of some degree of desperation.
On the part of President Obama to bring in a man who is.
And Bill Clinton not exactly political enemy but certainly a rival I see desperation via a -- Well.
I I think -- Scott knows there's only about eight or ten states that are really in competition and -- so razor thin.
If Bill Clinton can move the needle even a point or two in those states that could make the difference.
Bill Clinton would not be invited to have this kind of -- role -- the Obama campaign did not think they were -- from community health act of desperation.
Laura are gonna bring you into this.
I say this could backfire against President Obama and it is an act of desperation to bring in Bill Clinton and you say I just want to know about the negotiating because we knew that Obama reached out personally to.
President Clinton so did he say well I want to have.
The pulpit to myself.
Cut on my -- night I wanna be interrupted by the vice hits I wanna have my own right time -- if he's the same what I wanted to your point about crafting the message.
What is it going to sound -- and if he's gonna do something he's going to average and suggest well.
You know that tax thing isn't exactly where I am standing but for the good of the nation in the big picture here is that Democrats -- in the -- and -- One other point guys there always -- the -- that he could talk for like 95 minutes and there's always the risk that he could really freelance on I don't think he's gonna give.
His speech to anybody for pre clearance I'll tell you what the hell I'll tell you all the speeches debate Hillary.
Can 2006.
Lousy -- on my Paul but I think you get the point right correct yup.
Yup exactly -- work yeah you could come back on this program more often -- value -- -- -- at -- -- that you -- agreeing with -- is just fantastic.
It's really astonishing is that he's got to get my fifth time though it what do think should do not like it and I'm -- -- everybody he's good -- extra -- -- -- front of my.

The body of Joey Holloway, 27, was found around 1 p.m. Saturday about a half-mile from the Camp Merrill campsite on Forest Service Road 28-1, said Lt. Wesley Burnett, spokesman for the Lumpkin County Sheriff's Office.
Before the weekend tragedy, Holloway was arrested last month as a suspect in a string of burglaries in the Clayton community and in April was in a single-car accident that left his daughter and stepdaughters injured.
In a news release Monday, Burnett said Holloway's 26-year-old wife, Sylvia Holloway, reported her husband missing just before 7 p.m. Friday.
She and Holloway and two children had just arrived at the campsite off Camp Wahsega Road the previous evening.
"When they awoke on (Friday), Joey indicated he was going for a walk. Joey never returned, so Sylvia (Holloway) called law enforcement," he said in the release.
Assisted by Lumpkin County Fire and Emergency Services personnel, tracking dogs from Dawson and Forsyth counties, Fannin County Sheriff's Office deputies, Georgia State Patrol units, and the Camp Frank D. Merrill Fire Department, Lumpkin Sheriff's deputies began searching for the man.
Burnett told the Tribune on Monday that Holloway's body was found Saturday afternoon along the creek bank, not in the water, and despite claims that Holloway was fishing near the creek, officials do not believe that to be the case.
"We don't have knowledge that he was fishing at this point," Burnett said.
Burnett said in the release officials do not suspect foul play. He did not disclose further details regarding the condition of the body and the circumstances surrounding Holloway's death.
The investigation was ongoing and autopsy results from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation were pending, Burnett said.
Holloway was the driver in an April 20 single-car accident that injured his daughter and two stepdaughters after he drove off Highway 108 near James White Trail in Waleska and hit a tree.
His 2-year-old daughter was taken to WellStar Kennestone Hospital with a skull fracture and then flown to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite's Intensive Care Unit.
She was released after just five days in the hospital. His two stepdaughters, who were 4 and 7 years old, also recovered from their injuries, their mother, Sylvia Holloway told the Tribune about a week after the accident.
The Cherokee County Sheriff's Office has yet to release the cause of the crash.
"Traffic investigators are still waiting for the toxicology report from the crime lab," Lt. Jay Baker, spokesman for the Cherokee County Sheriff's Office, said Tuesday.
Less than a month after the accident, Holloway was arrested in connection with a rash of burglaries in the Clayton community.
At the time of the arrest, Baker said Holloway was a suspect in two of the eight crimes and was charged with two counts of burglary.
Just a week before the charges, Baker said Joey and Sylvia Holloway had been released from the Bartow County Jail on charges of theft by receiving stolen property.
Baker said the Holloways allegedly sold stolen jewelry from Cherokee County to a precious metal dealer in Cartersville and jewelry was one of the primary targets in the Clayton community burglaries.
Baker said burglars gained access to the homes by kicking in the doors and also took electronics and three guns from the homes.

The Lancers won 6-1 and 9-4 in the sweep, with Emma Holden taking a pair of wins on the night.
CBU moves to 38-6 overall, 21-4 PacWest, staying a half-game ahead of Dixie State in the conference standings. The Seasiders fall to 11-20, 6-19.
"We told the girls that it's never going to be easy and that any team in this conference can beat you on any night," said CBU Head Coach Bill Baber, whose team had won by a combined score of 27-2 against the Seasiders the night before. "We came away with two wins and that's what matters. Sometimes it's hard to come back and play a team after having a night like yesterday, but we hung in there and got the wins."
Holden, who was coming off a no-hitter the night before, pitched yet another brilliant game in the opener, going seven innings and giving up one run to get the victory. Holden struck out 14 batters in the game to run her three game strikeout total to 42.
Holden came back in to replace starter Tory Ferreira in the nightcap, after BYUH pulled within one run at 5-4 in the fourth inning. She entered the game with the bases loaded and proceeded to induce a popout and then struck out Brooke Perriton to end the threat. The Seasiders would not score another run.
Holden tossed 3 2-3 more innings in the late game to pick up the win and move to 19-4 on the season. The senior ace struck out eight batters in that time to move her season total to 230. In Holden's last 21 2-3 innings pitched she has averaged 2.31 strikeouts per frame.
"She just dominated that first game and then came in with the bases loaded and showed no fear in getting out of that jam," said Baber. "I know Tory will be back and be fine, too, she always is. That's why we have two great pitchers like them, so they can pick each other up. Emma was on today and really helped us get these victories."
The Lancers put a trio of two-spots up on the board in the opener, scoring in the second, fourth and sixth innings.
Kailey Willingham was 2 for 3 with two RBI and a run scored, hitting her fifth home run of the season, in the game. She and April Vasquez opened the game with RBI doubles in the second.
In the nightcap the Lancers scored five runs on five hits and one error in the fourth, before BYUH made its comeback. Vasquez opened the inning with a homer to center field.
After Holden came in and once again quieted the Seasider offense, the Lancers scored three in the sixth on a double by Kendall Gorham and a two-run shot by Tina Galinato.
BYUH managed two hits and no runs the rest of the way.
A night after hitting for the cycle against the Seasiders, Mara Rodriguez was 4 for 5 in the game, driving in two runs and scoring three more. She hit her ninth home run of the season in the seventh inning.
"The key from here on out down the home stretch is focus," said Baber. "It's tough to win four in a row against anybody as we saw tonight, but I know we have the team to do it."
The Lancers travel to San Francisco this weekend for a four-game set with Academy of Art before playing a makeup game against Dominican.
