Consortium on Negotiation and Conflict Resolution
Lessons Learned
Mandated implementation without buy-in has ramifications.
The Regents' Blue Ribbon Committee, although peopled with individuals interested in ADR from across the System, did not include a representative from every institution; nor does the Advisory Committee. While the decision to structure the committees in this way was made with good reason, it creates challenges in ensuring commitment from stakeholders at every institution. Looking back, we would attempt to find ways to involve stakeholders in the initial development or ongoing support of the Initiative.
Too much flexibility in design principles can overwhelm designers.
Hoping to allow the unique characteristics of individual institutions to drive the development and implementation of their conflict resolution systems, the drafters of the Initiative provided only general guidelines rather than detailed directions on dispute resolution system design. ADR liaisons and committees were provided a guidebook and resource manual including references to books and other materials on dispute systems design. Instead of turning to these materials for their education, the designers, many of whom had little or no knowledge of or experience in conflict resolution, preferred training as an introduction to conflict resolution.
The CNCR elected to use basic mediation training as the introductory course. Mediation training provided a strong foundation of knowledge and skills for participants; however, it also tended to narrow the thinking of system designers, overwhelmed by the broad concept of ADR, who appear to have adopted mediation as their definition of conflict resolution. As a result, many institutions have designed their dispute resolution systems around mediation, automatically incorporating it into their grievance procedures and offering mediation on their campuses, ignoring other potentially appropriate prevention and resolution tools. The CNCR is responding to this lesson by providing training in dispute systems design as an integral part of training in evaluation.
Institutional readiness for culture change should be assessed.
Even in the best of circumstances, culture change is extremely difficult for a large, complex organization. Georgia's Initiative was implemented across the system without regard for the environment, or readiness for cultural change at individual institutions. At some institutions, factors such as leadership changes, implementation of other initiatives requiring significant resources, etc. made it difficult, and in some cases impossible, to embrace the conflict resolution initiative.
Unfunded mandates create numerous obstacles.
As previously discussed, leaders within the university system have history dealing with unfunded mandates. They have learned from experience that unfunded mandates are not always permanent. They are loath to commit valuable resources to implement an initiative which may not be a priority the next year. Recognizing this, the Advisory Committee to the Chancellor's Office has recommended offering matching grant funds to institutions which submit compelling proposals for program development and implementation. The Chancellor's Office is in the process of estbalishing this program.
Systems have a tendency to implement without adequate planning and assessment.
Of the six system design steps, assessment is very possibly the most important. Still, most of the institutions in Georgia which have designed and implemented conflict resolution systems did so with little or no assessment. Whether this is the result of lack of knowledge about assessment, or the belief that mediation is the only conflict resolution tool available, is unknown. The CNCR plans to address this "Ready, Fire, Aim" phenomenon by focusing more specifically on dispute systems design in future education and training.
Education and training is a key to maintenance.
Many of the lessons outlined above can be addressed through education, training and continuous sharing of information. Stakeholders need to be made aware that high level administration recognizes the long term value of implementing the Initiative. Those responsible for designing and implementing a conflict resolution system need education on the phases of system design including assessment, design, incorporating tools and techniques other than mediation, implementation and evaluation. As systems are designed and implemented, individuals need to be trained to provide the services offered by the program. Establishing a strong education and training infrastructure to meet these needs on an ongoing basis is critical to the success of an Initiative such as this one.
Develop data collection systems beyond initial stage of implementation.
The Initiative has been in place for years, and the time has come to begin evaluating its effect, not only at the individual institution level, but also at the System level. The CNCR is encountering difficulty in performing an evaluation because ongoing data collection systems were not established as institutions developed and implemented their systems. As a result, no baseline exists for comparison in evaluation. Given the opportunity too start again, the CNCR would develop and disseminate sample data collection systems to ADR liaisons and committees in the initial phases of the Initiative.

How do you ask someone to explain something in very simple words, understandable by everyone from general public? In Russia we say something, that can be translated like "explain on fingers". What's the correct English for this?
| |||||||||||||
For clarity, some of the phrases given as answers have more of an "explain it succinctly," than an "explain it simply" connotation. Others have more of a give me the essentials meaning. Here's some more of each (there is some overlap): Succinct Simple Essential | |||||||||||||
You could say CliffsNotes are short synopses of longer literary works, usually used by students who don't want to read a whole work Or you could try: This is used in business a lot. The idea is that you are asking someone to pretend that they happen to get on an elevator with a prime customer and they only have the time between when the doors close and they open on the customer's floor to sell him on a product or an idea. I especially like the phrase Denzel Washington's character used again and again in the film Philadelphia: | |||
If speaking to someone you are comfortable with you could ask them to "explain it in twenty five words or less". This is quite informal. Otherwise you could ask for something to be explained "in simple terms". | |||

Sorry for the double post, but #1, you are incorrect. The Senate is needed only to convict, and you are probably correct that they won´t.

Obama is dragging his feet and maintaining a coverup until the Electoral College casts their votes no later than Christmas Eve. He is not the President elect until the votes are opened in early January. If Benghazi were to blow wide open and confirm gross negligence and perhaps a treasonous cover-up, would electors change their votes? I want answers before they cast their votes in mid December.

It takes 67 in the Senate to convict. It will never happen. I think it´s something even worse than impeachment they fear. I think they´re afraid a NATO ally, Turkey, was complicit in an attack on American soil which resulted in the deaths of 4 Americans. That´s why they don´t want to investigate.

The Benghazi "Annex" was a warehouse of arms which the CIA had illegally provided to the Libyan "rebels" (Muslim Brotherhood).

#12, I believe it requires a 2/3 majority vote in the Senate to convict an impeached president and remove him from office. Unless 2/3 of the citizens of the U.S. want him removed from office and are willing to vote accordingly in the 2014 elections (or in even greater numbers to counteract the inevitable Democrat voter fraud), then we cannot get rid of Obama this way.

Thank you #3 and #4. You are correct about the HOR does the Impeaching (a la Clinton) but the Senate does the convicting (they didn´t convict Clinton). Also until the Electoral College does their formal vote, he is only the supposed winner of the 2012 election. This is probably why he is dragging his feet.If I were in the HOR, I would push for articles of impeachment. Obama is setting a very dangerous precedent for our country by being allowed to disregard the Constitution. The House must uphold it now, or we are lost. I have my doubts that the Supreme Court will do anything to help to rectify the criminal actions by our fraud in the WH. Click Here if you Like this Comment

Poster #4, I searched for an answer, only 24 states don´t have the requirement that Electors vote the way their states has them pledged.

About Me
I am 13 year old girl, in 8th grade. I got my first blemish in 5th grade and thought nothing of it, but then in 6th grade the blemishes got persistent. I hated it so much, and still do. It wasn't until seventh grade that acne really got to me. In 6th grade, I would constantly have pustules around my chin area. Most of the time, I popped them because I didn't know any better, but they never scarred. But it 7th grade, it spread to all over my face but mainly my cheeks and forehead. I would get at least 1 pustule a day and I stopped popping them, but they would pop on their own and now most of the skin on my cheeks are all red and scarred up with hyper pigmentation. Towards the end of 7th grade, I started getting hard red papules that would turn into pustules and they would scare really badly. Currently (7/21/13), my skin is still like this. I am on vacation and entering 8th grade next month. Let me tell you about my skin type.
I have EXTREMELY oily skin. It's disgusting. Within 2 hours of cleansing, my skin is already oozing with oil, it's ridiculous. My skin currently still gets hard, red papules that turn into pustules. And more forehead had small, pesky blemishes that don't bother me too much, but I would still want them gone. They make my skin texture looks gross. Right now, my skin is doing pretty good. I about 4 days ago, I started a new routine and I only have 2 active blemishes (pustules) and the small blemished on my forehead but they seem to be diminishing. See my latest topic for my new routine. I'm not sure how this new routine is going to work to prevent blemishes, but we'll see. My main concern now is the hyper pigmentation. If I had no red marks, and only have the active blemishes that I have right now, my skin would look relatively clear. But the scars are just, ugh. They make life hell.
I also have bad body acne and many scars on my shoulders, back, upper arms, and chest. I don't even know what to do about it at this point. It seems like a lost hope, so I don't even try anymore. I will never wear anything with an exposed back/upper arms.
I may have sounded like my skin is fine now and the blemishes are under control, but they're really not. It may seem like it's finally getting better for a day, then BAM.. spoke too soon. I have at least 1 blemish on my face at any time. Anyways, I've joined this site to see if others can help me, or maybe I can help some of you. Thanks. And PS don't treat me differently because I'm only 13. I don't mean this in a bragging way, but I am VERY mature.

I am working on a simple plugin that randomizes images… The only problem is caching… I had to turn that off via the admin in order to get my plugin to randomly display a new image.
Is there a better workaround for this? I would like to keep caching turned on, but that kills my plugin. :(
Has anyone found a "fix"?

Textpattern doesn't cache pages in any miracle method. Actually it's just Last-Modified header
that is then threated as browser likes.
One way to fix this, is to write plugin that updates the Last-modified time in txp_prefs table. But if you use random images, then it's quite hard to do, as it's based on page loading. So, if you update the last-modified time on every page load, then it's just same like turning the caching completely off.
Althought, you could add to you random image function the last-modified updater, in example: safe_update('txp_prefs','thefield_which_name_i_dont_remember',"now()")
and so-on. But it just nullifies the "caching" for those pages/sections/articles where you use that plugin.

Hi Gocom!
Thanks for the quick reply, I really appreciate it. :)
Great info too!
Hmmm, I may just shelf my plugin for now… Kinda seems like a JS solution could be more suitable — I like caching. :D
Back to the drawing board for me!
Thanks a billion Gocom!
fwiw, I have the same problem with smd_random_banner. When displaying random images, sometimes it just doesn't do it with a simple refresh. When I use it, I always turn off send last modified header but sometimes I'd prefer not to.
I have thought of implementing an optional feature into the plugin to add a cache-buster on the end or do what Gocom suggested in prefs, but at the end of the day it seems most people would rather save download bytes than worry about an image that appears twice in succession on the same page. If anyone has any other thoughts on this, I'd be interested to hear them in case there's something I've not thought of yet.

Txp Builders – finely-crafted code, design and Txp
Here's the random image function I use at a site I manage. I'm not sure it does what you need and I never notice any problems with caching but maybe I'm not paying enough attention. The function queries the image table for images in the "Random-Images" category and then builds an image tag. Perhaps it's not the most flexible solution but that's all I needed it to do.
function ccc_random_image() { $homepath = "http://".$GLOBALS['prefs']['siteurl'];
$things = 'id, ext, w, h, alt, caption'; $where = "category = 'Random-Images'"; $imageArray = safe_rows($things, 'txp_image', $where);
if ($imageArray) {
$randomNumber = time() % count($imageArray); $randomImage = $imageArray[$randomNumber];
$out = ''; $out .= ''."\n"; $out .= '
'.$randomImage['caption'].'
'; }
return $out; }
Thanks Gocom, Bloke, and jdykast — I really appreciate the help. :)
Thanks for sharing the code jdykast, that gives me some good ideas.
Have a great day all!
I use wet's great wet_for_each_image plugin to get random images. It's intended as "Yet Another Gallery Plugin," but it actually does for images what article_custom
does for articles. As such, you can just set the sort
attribute to "rand()"
to get a random item:
<txp:wet_for_each_image sort="rand()" limit="1" category="thingies" form="some_misc_form" />
Like jdykast, I haven't noticed any caching issues. But like jdykast, I may just not be watching close enough.
for a few years now i've been using a random image script for the front page of hblack.net. It seems that – from my end at least – there no caching issues.Anyway… here's the script
//the directory
//this is just the alt tag on top of the image
$your_alt_tag="helene black";
// /*
********************* ThE SCRIPT ***********************************
function displayAaPHPrandomImage($dirname, $alt){ $dirhandle = opendir($dirname); while (false !== ($file = readdir($dirhandle))) { if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && !@is_dir($file)) { $filelist[] = $file; } }
closedir($dirhandle); if(sizeof($filelist) ==0) { echo "No file was found in the directory!"; exit; }
srand((double)microtime()*1000000); $picnum = @rand(0, sizeof($filelist) - 1); $imageName=$dirname.$filelist[$picnum]; $imageSize = getimagesize($imageName);
$result="$imageName"; return $result; } ?>
neme.org | neme-imca.org | hblack.net | LABS
Old thread, but I figured I'd post my really simple random image script:
function randImg($dir) { $dir = dir($dir); $img = array(); while(($file = $dir->read()) != false) { if (($file != '.') && ($file != '..')) { array_push($img, $file); } } $dir->close(); shuffle($img); $randKey = array_rand($img);
return $img[$randKey]; }
// for txp use - randImg(hu . $GLOBALS['img_dir']) echo '';
jm, where do I put this code? in the html default page?
should I create an folder for the random images?

Argos fall to Delta State in 10-inning thriller at GSC tournament
UWF looks ahead to NCAA tournament selections on Sunday
CARROLLTON, Ga. - The No. 11 ranked West Florida baseball team held two leads early in the game and came back and tied the game with three runs in the ninth, but their efforts were not enough as No. 5 ranked Delta State escaped with an 8-7 win in 10 innings in an elimination game at the Gulf South Conference tournament at West Georgia. The loss knocked the Argonauts out of the GSC tournament, and they will now wait for the NCAA tournament selections to be announced on Sunday.
The Argonauts (35-12) were down by three runs in the top of the ninth, but they rallied to tie the score 7-7. After tying the score UWF had a bases loaded situation with one out and Max St. Hilaire (Largo, Fla./St. John's River State) at the plate, and St. Hilaire was hit by a pitch. After the Argos appeared to have scored a go-ahead run, St. Hilaire was called back to the batters' box and the umpire ruled that the pitch hit the bat and was a foul ball. The Argos were then retired to end the inning, and DSU won it in the 10th on a walk-off single by Tyler Aldridge.
"First and foremost, I was proud of our team's fight to stay in the game," said UWF head coach Mike Jeffcoat. "We had a lot of heart, a lot of fight and a lot of will, there's no question about that. We just came up on the short end of the stick there in the end."
UWF was first to score, as shortstop Josh Allen (Fort Meade, Fla./State College of Florida) brought in a run on a single in the fourth inning. DSU (40-8-1) responded with three runs in the fifth thanks to a double by Carlos Leal and a sacrifice fly by Sam Kidd.
The Argos had a three-run inning of their own in the sixth to take a 4-3 lead. Second baseman Kaleb Barlow (Florence, Miss./Chipola) hit his ninth home run of the year to lead off the inning, and the Argos added runs on a triple by first baseman Cliff Covington (McIntosh, Ala./Alabama Southern CC) and a squeeze bunt by Chase Kiefer (Pensacola, Fla./Pensacola Catholic HS).
UWF starting pitcher Drew Bryson (Cullman, Ala./Wallace State) lasted 6.1 innings, and he didn't allow a run until the three-run inning by DSU in the fifth.
"We got a solid performance by Bryson," said Jeffcoat. "He kept us in the game and left with the lead."
The Statesmen took the lead with three runs in the seventh and one in the eighth, but the Argos' ninth inning rally tied the score again. Covington doubled to lead off the inning, and the Argos loaded the bases after an infield hit by Kiefer and a walk by pinch hitter Austin Southall (Baton Rouge, La./Chipola). The first run came in on a walk by center fielder Dustin Saulmon (Panama City, Fla./Alabama Southern CC), and right fielder Drew Prichard (Mobile, Ala./Troy) singled in two more runs to tie the score.
With the score tied 7-7, Barlow then drew a walk to load the bases. St. Hilaire then came to the plate, and after the contested pitch that was ruled a foul ball he struck out for the second out. DSU reliever Garrett Pickens then struck out a second batter in a row to end the threat.
Tyler Aldridge's walk-off single in the 10th came off UWF reliever Ben Bridges. Bridges (2-1) lasted 2.2 innings and was credited with the loss. Pickens picked up the win for DSU (3-0) after striking out all five batters he faced.
The NCAA tournament field will be announced on NCAA.com on Sunday, May 12 at 9 p.m. CT. The top six teams, including automatic qualifying conference champions from the GSC, SIAC and SSC, will earn bids to the NCAA South Regional. UWF was ranked No. 5 in last week's NCAA regional rankings.

Is Going Over the 'Fiscal Cliff' Necessarily the Worst Outcome? >
Going Over the Fiscal Cliff Is Bad Policy—and Bad Politics Too
The country can't afford major fiscal reform right now
November 16, 2012
Even though the so-called "fiscal cliff" is really a fiscal slope, going over it could still produce significant harm to an already weak economy, and should be avoided.
Many Democrats think they can win the political game, by letting the Bush tax cuts expire this year, and then pressuring the Republicans to join them in voting early next year for the reinstatement of the Bush tax rates except for those brackets above $200,000 ($250,000 for joint filers).
But this may be bad politics, overestimating the willingness of the embittered and radicalized Republican right to compromise in order to avoid holding middle class tax cuts hostage to low tax rates on the rich.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the fiscal cliff.]
And even if it is good politics, it is bad policy. While going off the cliff would not lead to immediate disaster, it would produce plenty of harmful effects—the abrupt end of the payroll tax cut for American wage earners, cuts in unemployment benefits, and budget uncertainty for private businesses and public agencies alike.
A "grand bargain" that attempts to combine major long-term tax reform with long-term entitlement reform is not necessary. What is needed instead is a "mini-deal" that defuses various ticking time bombs for the next few months. Only when job creation and growth are stronger should we take up major fiscal reforms. In this situation, kicking the can further down the road is the most responsible option.

Interviewer: Did you take any prop home? Did you keep something?
Tom: I don't think I did, I mean all my props are kind of like, enormous. But there was one day where I kind of ran amok at lunch break and I stole the shield and the hammer, and we were in these underground tunnels in Cleveland, and I literally had the shield in my hand and I was holding the hammer aloft in my arm. And I sent pictures to Chris and Chris, I was like "Guys, I'm not giving them back." [x]

Acer today signaled a significant change in the approach the company will be taking to the ICT Industry. The new vision will enable Acer customers to seamlessly integrate their PC and mobile devices for accessing data — anytime, anywhere — through Build Your Own Cloud (BYOC™). Acer will also enhance its own designed apps for BYOC to improve the customer experience. This vision sets a new milestone for Acer to transform from a hardware company into a "hardware + software + services" player as it prepares to embrace new opportunities in the era of cloud technology.
Acer has partnered with Advanced Info Service (AIS), Thailand's largest mobile operator, to offer the Acer Liquid Z3 smartphone with AIS' 3G Super Combo package at over 950 AIS dealers and 7,000 branches of 7-eleven stores nationwide. 300,000 units have been sold since August.
Acer announces that its Board of Directors has elected the company founder, Stan Shih, as Chairman and interim Corporate President with immediate effect. Shih shall serve as Acer's Chairman until the end of his term on the Board. Chairman & CEO J.T. Wang and Corporate President Jim Wong have both stepped down in light of the company's recent performance. The Company will hand over the Corporate Presidency to the appropriate candidate as soon as possible.
Acer is preparing to launch a comprehensive global marketing campaign "A Touch More" to highlight its product range and innovations. This new campaign is designed to re-energize Acer's premium brand positioning through above and below-the-line activities, including public relations, social media marketing, in-store and out-of-home advertising.
Always a supporter of research and the education market, Acer is proud to jointly announce with Taiwan's National Cheng Kung University (NCKU) a revolutionary system design for high performance computing. Making user of Acer's Altos R380 F2 with two Intel Xeon Phi cards per node, this new architecture uses a daisy-chain design and intelligent networking to do away with the need for expensive switching technology. In so doing, this architecture eliminates the bottlenecks which are often associated with fat tree, switch-based topologies, and can help some of the costs associated with parallel computing.
Acer announces that the resignation of J.T. Wang, Chairman and CEO, has been approved by its board of directors. Wang shall remain in chairmanship until the end of his tenure next June. The Board and The Search Committee also agreed that Corporate President Jim Wong will succeed Wang as the new CEO from January 1, 2014. A comprehensive restructuring plan has been formulated by the Acer management team, and without delay, the Board will commence with its corporate transformation.
Acer's financial results for Q3 2013, approved by its Board of Directors, are: Consolidated Revenue of NT$92.15B (US$3.11B), up 3.1% quarter-over-quarter and down 11.8% year-over-year; an Operating Loss of NT$2.57B (US$86.61M). In addition, due to a non-cash related intangible asset impairment of NT$9.94B (US$335.12M), profit after tax was NT$-13.12B (US$-442.19M), and earnings per share was NT$-4.82.
Acer announces that the Liquid Z3, a 3.5-inch compact-size Android smartphone built with essential communication features, has been honored with the Good Design Award, further consolidating Acer's position as an innovator in product design.

Acer Smart Cloud Builder has been chosen by Thailand's Rangsit University to host its administration and research applications. With this private cloud, the institution expects to further enhance operational and academic efficiency, minimize the resources needed, and lower total cost of ownership (TCO). The solution also provides the flexibility to scale up for future expansion needs. Acer's cloud builder solution is already installed and is fully functioning at Rangsit University.
Acer's financial results for 1H 2013, approved by its board of directors, are: consolidated revenue of NT$181.35B (US$6.02B), down 18.9% on year; operating loss of NT$585M (US$19.4M); PAT of NT$171M (US$5.68M); and earnings per share of NT$0.06.

Many thanks to Robert and Denise for sharing part of your culture and life with us. A real experience where we felt welcome and we gained an insight into genuine maori culture and history.
Many thanks to Robert and Denise for sharing part of your culture and life with us. A real experience where we felt welcome and we gained an insight into genuine maori culture and history.
This was the highlight of our cruise to New Zealand. We felt immersed in the culture and tradition of the Maori and learned so much by watching and experiencing things first-hand. Everyone made us feel so welcome and it was evident that these wonderful people were very proud of their culture and eager to share with us. Wonderful experience -... More
This was by far the most memorable of our shore excursions during a 16-day cruise of six ports in New Zealand and four ports in Australia. At Hakikino were treated like extended family members, warmly welcomed and included. This tribe's concern with preserving their cultural heritage gives their tours a unique genuineness and an intimacy that is deeply meaningful. DJ,... More
We really enjoyed our visit to the Arch of the Ancestors. This is not a Disneyland type experience, instead it is an experience where a true Maori extended family shares their history and traditions with you. I felt very touched by this experience.
A place where I experienced real maori culture with it's great food and their awesome people. A mysterious site where I could feel the century long history. The walk through the assembly area put us in the shoes of the maori ancestors and the introduction of the music instruments enabled us to picture their lifes.
Our tour at Hakikino was truly authentic and interesting. We learnt so much about their culture and history but also felt the emotional pride they have, this bought tears to my eyes. the whole experience they offer is professional but also real - they are not just doing this for tourists - you can see it's also for the benefit...

Onion Weed
Yeah it's a weed, but it's a pretty weed.
There is one little patch of them by the
dog park here. The scarcity of them makes
them seem less like a weed here, but
from what I read on the Internet they
sound difficult to get rid of if you don't want them.
At any rate, The Basset likes
them, so we stop and check them out often.

Posts Tagged 'social network. Queen Bees'
My daughters put a book into my hands several months ago, and I finally sat down and read it.
And recommend it to adults, as well as young people (girls in particular) over the age of 8 or 9.
Amy Goldman Koss''s "The Girls" is the closest read to 'what really happens' that I have come across. Not only is each chapter told from a different group member's point of view, the 'situation' around which the plot evolves is not a big, blown out, 'that would never happen in my life' event.
In keeping with girls' reliance on their social network, the aggression is covert, simultaneously allowing for the maintenance and destruction of relationships.
Put differently: girls rely on their social network as a means of competition (that is, it is a tool for social advancement) while valuing that network as an end in itself (an important resource to be competed for). While the network may be colonized in the service of cruelty, the aggression remains subtle and insidious, ripples on a pond with far reaching affects, while underlying relationships remain intact.
In "The Girls" there was no confrontation, no fight, and only one overtly nasty incident .
Instead, a more likely scenario, centering around the nuances of inclusion and exclusion, was played out. And, it was done in a way which accurately depicts how all members of a group constantly jockey for position, and consequently need to process friendship struggles―as bystanders as well as victims―on an ongoing basis. The book does a wonderful job portraying the ambivalence of bystanders, suggesting their potential to negotiate, if not withstand, the bullying.
For further insight into each of the characters, pair with a reading of Ros Wiseman's "

One erratic and stubborn driver was taken into custody by Estevan Police Service members on Aug. 3 following a chase that didn't end until the vehicle he was driving was brought to a halt near Halbrite on Highway 39.
Police said the man was held in custody pending an Aug. 7 court date.
The misadventure began during the day of Aug. 3 when EPS received a call regarding an erratic driver on the northeast side of the city. The vehicle was located a short time later, but when police attempted to make a routine traffic stop to investigate the situation, the driver failed to comply, resulting in a slow speed pursuit at between 50 and 70 km/h through the local streets and onto Highway 39. At this point the pursuit continued along the highway and members of the Weyburn detachment of the RCMP provided assistance by deploying a spike belt across the road near the town of Midale. The driver, attempting to swerve around the belt was unsuccessful and the passenger side tires on the suspect vehicle were punctured.
The vehicle continued on its westbound track until it approached another spike belt that had been put in place 15 kilometres from the village of Halbrite. This time the driver's side tires were punctured but the vehicle kept moving westbound at reduced speeds for another four miles before it had to stop due to the extensive damages.
After a brief struggle with the lone occupant of the vehicle, EPS members along with the Weyburn RCMP members placed the 44-year-old man under arrest and he was taken to EPS cells where he was remanded in custody pending his court appearance.
Some of the charges that have been laid against the driver include impaired driving, flight from police, driving without a valid licence and possession of a controlled substance.

You may be unable to follow an Employer for the following reasons:
To prevent Freelancers from following you:
You will not be notified if the Employer posted a project or contest. A Private contest or project is designed to protect the Employer's confidentiality, by hiding their project details from search engines and users who are not logged in.
All you have to do to create a poll is select the Launch Poll option on the Contest View page, then select which entries you would like to consider.

If you do not award a winning design by 30 days after the contest closing, the prize money will be automatically shared between freelancers.
If you are unsure how long your project will take to complete, simply select "Not Sure" and Freelancers will provide their estimates on how long it will take. You can then select the Freelancer appropriate for your project.

Note: Employers do not have to accept your request. We recommend requesting Milestones so you can increase your Feedback and Reputation, and be protected in case an issue arises involving the project.

The Freelancer Rewards feature provides you with additional rewards and benefits just for using Freelancer.com the way you ordinarily would. As you complete certain tasks and accomplish certain goals, you will earn experience points (XP) that go towards increasing your Rewards Level. As you advance through the levels, you unlock rewards and perks that boost your earning potential and chances to win projects.
You also earn Freelancer Credits to spend in the Credit Shop, which you can use to purchase free project and promotional upgrades to save you money.
While everyone can accumulate XP and rewards, you can only benefit from rewards and spend credits if you have a Basic, Standard, or Premium membership plan. Visit the Freelancer Memberships page to upgrade.
Earn rewards by increasing your Rewards Level. Your current level and the number of points needed to advance to the next level are displayed on your Level Bar, which you can see at the top of the page next to your username or on your Freelancer Rewards page.
To level up, complete objectives from the list in the dropdown menu next to your Level Bar to earn experience points (XP). When you earn enough points, you will level up.
Experience points (or XP) are points earned for completing actions or objectives when using Freelancer.com. They contribute toward increasing your Rewards Level. The total XP required to level up is displayed on your Level Bar at the top of the site and on your Freelancer Rewards page.
Objectives are found in the dropdown menu next to your Level Bar at the top of the page. They are just a few suggested actions you can complete to earn XP to progress toward the next Rewards Level.
As you complete actions and objectives using Freelancer.com, you earn XP that contribute towards your Reward Level. As you advance to each new level, you earn rewards and bonuses to boost your chances to win and complete projects.
Freelancer credits are a virtual currency you earn for completing objectives and actions on site. You also earn bonus credits when you increase your Rewards Level. These credits can be spent in the Credits Shop on various items, such as free project upgrades, extra bids, faster bid replenishment rates, plus more!
All members will receive experience points (XP) to increase their Rewards Level, unlock rewards and earn credits and badges. However, only Basic, Plus, Standard and Premium members can actually benefit from the rewards or spend their accumulated credits in the Credit Shop. Visit the Freelancer Memberships page to upgrade.
Either you do not have the required amount of Freelancer credits to purchase the required item or you are not on a Basic, Plus, Standard or Premium membership. Visit the Freelancer Memberships page to upgrade.
The Credit Shop is a virtual store where you can spend credits earned in the Freelancer Rewards program. You earn these credits when you complete certain actions or objectives, and when you advance to the next Rewards Level. At the Credit Shop, you can buy items such as project upgrades, extra bids, faster bid replenishment rates, plus much more! New items are added regularly and some are only available for a limited time while stocks last.
Some items are limited in stock and are only available for as long as supplies last. These items are listed as 'Limited' and will become unavailable once stock runs out. These items provide super benefits that are unfortunately too hot to give to everyone. Better grab them before they run out!
Purchased items from the Credit Shop will be transferred to your Reward Inventory, where you can activate them when you're ready. You will receive the benefit of the item after you activate it.
You can see your progress for Freelancer Rewards by going to the Profile menu then selecting 'My Rewards' or by clicking here.
No, your Reward Level has no effect on your reputation. Your Freelancer Rewards Level is a measure of your engagement with Freelancer.com based on the actions and objectives you've completed. While accomplishing the objectives can help you become a more experienced user and allow you to win rewards that boost your chances of winning projects, the Rewards Level does not measure the amount or quality of the work done on the site.
You collect Reward badges when you reach certain achievements on Freelancer.com. There are 3 badge categories - Standard, Pro, and Elite, in order of increasing difficulty. Standard badges are the most common and are the easiest to obtain. Pro badges are a bit rarer but can be obtained with a little effort. Elite Badges are very difficult to earn, accessible to only our most dedicated users. Find out how to earn these badges by visiting the Badges tab.
Badges, unlocked through Freelancer Rewards, are displayed on your profile page under the Badges menu. You can choose which badges to display publicly by using the 'Display Publicly' checkbox option to the right of your Badges tab under Freelancer Rewards.
A Freelancer.com membership is your way to benefit from using Freelancer.com. You can be a Free member or get additional benefits by upgrading to a Basic, Plus, Standard or Premium membership plan starting from $4.95USD! These benefits help increase your earning opportunities and can even reduce your fees!

The main advantages are:

For Freelancers:
View the complete list of benefits by membership type.
Membership costs are as follows:
Please click here to upgrade your membership.
Your membership will automatically renew at the end of your 30 day subscription, if you have funds available.
If you haven't cancelled the membership, we will try renew your membership everyday for 30 days from the day it ends.
Visit the membership page and select the plan you wish to upgrade to, then click 'Choose Plan'. You'll be upgraded instantly on a new 30 day subscription, plus, we'll refund the remainder of your previous membership plan!
Visit the membership page and select the plan you wish to downgrade to, then click 'Choose Plan'. Your new membership will begin once your current plan expires. That way, you'll still get all the benefits of your current plan until your new plan becomes active.
We'll also save your old membership details, in case you decide to upgrade your membership at a later date.
For Employers who value privacy of their project details, an NDA Project is a great way to list your project and discuss project requirements with Freelancers.
Freelancers must agree to a Non-Disclosure agreement (NDA) before placing a bid on your project. Freelancer.com provides a default NDA though we recommend you should always get legal advice on important documents like this. Otherwise, you may upload your own NDA which Freelancers will sign and agree to instead.
Once the Freelancer has digitally signed and agreed to the NDA, they agree to keep details discussed through private messages and files confidential.
The NDA project option must be selected during the project posting process; it cannot be applied once the project is live.
Note: NDA projects will still display your project's description and project clarification board comments publicly.
These types of project appear with the graphic appearing next to the title of the project.
Urgent projects skip the admin queue and are listed immediately, receiving a faster response from Freelancers to help get your project started within 24 hours!
You can mark your project as Urgent for $9.00 USD. Your project will be listed for bidding for 24 hours and will also be displayed in the Ending Soon table
Our agent will clarify the project with you if necessary and will recommend a bidder based on your project requirements and the online bidder profile. The agent may also invite more freelancers to bid. Conditions apply
This type of project is for hiring a full time or commission-based position (e.g. Sales) and you will save money if you have ongoing work. Fees are only charged on payments if the project value exceeds $5000 USD.
Full Time projects cost $199.00 USD, payable by the Employer and are displayed in the job listings with a label.
Please read more about our Terms of Service.
Freelancer.com will then disburse the Milestone Payment to the Freelancer. If a Employer does not approve of the Freelancer work product, the Parties agree to be bound by the terms of the Dispute Resolution Service.
If an advance payment is agreed upon, we highly recommend using our Milestone Payments system to transfer funds to the Freelancer. In addition to providing more security for both parties, this allows the use of Freelancer.com's Dispute Resolution Services if problems arise.
You can use this form to search Freelancers by skills, country or rating.
When you're ready to select a Freelancer or Freelancers, follow these simple steps:
When the project is accepted, both employer and freelancer commission fees will be deducted from the user accounts and bidding is closed.
For some tips on choosing the best Freelancer, we recommend reading "Four Questions to Ask Yourself When Selecting a Bidder".
Additionally, Freelancers that have been chosen with winning bids will see an icon on the final accept page of whether there are sufficient funds in your account to pay for the project in full or not before they complete acceptance.
To close or cancel a project, please do the following:
Please be aware that we do not refund commissions when the project has been awarded already.
Our project commission is an introduction fee. Once someone's bid is selected and accepted, at that point email addresses and contact details are traded.
It's our part to introduce the two parties but the project's success lies only between the Employer and the Freelancer.
To delete a project, please do the following:
Please note that Freelancer.com recommends making every attempt to resolve any issues before submitting an Incomplete Project Report. If you find it necessary to submit a report, keep your comments at a professional level and refrain from derogatory statements.
Incomplete Project Reports can be submitted on this page.
For more details on finding and obtaining work, see our article entitled "Successful Freelancing with Freelancer.com".

Please read more about Milestone Payments here.
To cancel a Milestone Payment, please follow the instructions below:
Completion rate is a measurement based on the volume of project that have been successfully completed within the agreed time, and the extent to which payments for those projects have been made through Freelancer.com's Milestone Payment System.
To achieve a high completion rate Freelancers should complete projects on time, and ensure they are paid in full through Freelancer.com's Milestone Payment System.Using Milestone Payment is an excellent way to ensure payments are made in full when the work has been completed, and provides the additional protection of the Freelancer.com Disputes Resolution System.
The Dispute Resolution Service is offered by Freelancer.com to users who wish to contest the return or release of an existing Milestone(s). This service is offered only for users who have elected to use the Milestone Payment System.
If an issue arises where you wish to negotiate the return or release of a Milestone, you should file a dispute.
In all circumstances, we encourage users to resolve disputes between themselves rather than use this service; however, it is provided as an alternative of last resort should the parties are unable to reach agreement.
Any Freelancer.com user can file a Dispute against another user, as long as the project has a related Milestone payment.
To lodge a dispute over a payment, mouse over the "Disputes" link at the navigation bar on your Freelancer.com home page and click the "New Disputes" link.
Select the project to dispute and the user; then tick the Milestone Payment you wish to dispute and type down why you want to dispute the Milestone Payment. You are allowed to contest all the Milestones related to a single project in one dispute.
You then need to describe your issue in detail and attach any supporting evidence you may have (from Stages 1 through to 3, you are encouraged to attach any files that could support your claims).
Finally, you should enter the amount you are prepared to pay for the project (if an Employer) or wish to receive for the project (if a Freelancer). The amount could be between 0 and the total amount of Milestone Payments in question.
The other party has a number of days (4 if the other party is a Freelancer, 7 if the other party is an Employer) to respond to the claim made by the complainant. If the party does not respond within the given days, the Dispute closes in your favor.
For more information, please read Section 11.4 of the Terms.
Once payment has been sent, you need to fill out the Identify Payment form to help us identify your payment.
To make a deposit:
Please copy and supply your bank with the Deposit Details. The BSB code of Freelancer.com is 342011.
Deposited funds will be added to your balance as soon as we receive it in our account.
Once payment has been sent, you need to fill out the payment form to help us identify your payment. Go to this link, and at the bottom, click the "Enter Payment Details" button.

Thanks Slam!
Yes, cleaner and less cluttered was definitely the look that I was going for... that and moving away from the orange
Not sure where this thread should be, but just wanted to say Ziggy that you have done a wonderful job with the new look!
The old place was messy and cluttered and not at all inviting, but this is clean, easy to navigate and consistant.
Solid work mate. It's going to make coming here a lot easier on the eye.
Definitely an upgrade.
