Mass Protest?
Mass Protest?
posted at 7/11/2010 5:54 AM EDTThis makes me giggle a bit. I see so many people (Smart People) defending the MPD and MFD over this layoff game with the budget. But I do not see one person trying to start a protest outside cityhall or its meetings to help the police.
You get about 40 people along with the Media, and have a small protest to gain attention to the story. Im sure 75% of the residents do not know what is going on. And what Cop is going to give you a hard time about it?
They tell you to move, you move with peace and head over to the T Station. It will take a half hour for T police to come. Then you move over fo My Honey Fitz (General Area) and get the attention of MATV. They come back tell you to move. Then you move to Stop and Shop. 15- 20 min then you move to the Police Station. They tell you to move. You can get 2 hours of a protest. And in those 2 hours you have alerted everyone of the issue.
Alot of people will talk, but will you do it? Flash Protests are quick and easy. Just need the communication and feet.

Farenella being at a protest would gain attention for sure. This man brings a lot of attention to himself let alone what he brings to the city. Frank if you were there we would be sure to get kicked out and noticed.
Vendetta: It's a good idea to do something, but I am not so sure a protest would be the right thing. How about someone starts a PARTITION and walks around and has residents sign in, much like the PAYT. The PAYT handled things in a very mature manner and they got the point across. This is a nice thought, but however you choose to approach the situation just made sure it is being done within the laws and guidelines so YOU or ANYONE who makes the decision to partake in it does not end up arrested.
If you want to get the attention of MATV you can always call and present a story idea and I am sure they would be willing to interview a few residents and ask questions/make comments and air in on TV and long as there is no direct threats or slander.

Frank, I am all for standing up to the Council & Mayor, but I must admit I would not partake in it if you were the one running the show. You are very demanding, very aggressive and you come across as a complete (_/_) at times.
You need to realize there is a way to go about things and thus far you have not shown any of us that you are capable of doing in this a business professional manner.
I would not expect to have a huge fan base if you did this because of your previous ways of approaching the Council and the comments you have made against the Council regarding your personal business.
Your heart is in the right place and I do give you credit for that, but you need to have you attitude adjusted a tad bit before approaching the Council again.
This is my opinion others may feel differently about you.
Re: Mass Protest?
posted at 7/14/2010 7:45 AM EDTThreeStooges88 --Thank you for your critcism and it probalbly right
on----but i been like this my whole life ---i am persistant and
stubborn in my own ways---But the point is this City council does
not care (a few do care) but most of them follow the Mayor.
All I am trying to do now is to get them to post their votes on all
issues ---post them on the internet such as here, malden observer,
malden evening news so the residents can see what is going on and
how their tax money is being spent.
Again when you ask questions (tough) they hide behind closed doors
or will give an excuse or they will get back to you,to them this is
politics as usual that is why it has to change.
Maybe if you want to lead I will follow but it has to be open to all
points of view.
Re: Mass Protest?
posted at 7/14/2010 10:30 AM EDTEver thing that maybe just maybe they can't disclose information as quickly as you would like? You complain about the minutes at the meetings and those being posted (They are and you can also obtain a cop from City Hall). I understand some of the things you would like to see posted by the Council, but I'd like to see it as well and so would many others. It's not going to happen on our schedule, it's going to happen when they are good and ready because that is how they work.
You have said you want to speak with the Council, but you don;t seem to stick with one subject, you are all over the place with things. That right there is the reason the Council has a fear of people speaking because a lot of times people don't stick to the main subject. I agree we need time as residents to speak, to have our voices heard, but you my Dear are just to aggressive to approach the Council.
Frank, you need to be professional (for example have you ever seen the people with the PAYT) they were and still are professional and they made the biggest impact in this community. They fought for something in a clean cut manner and Man Oh Man did they get their point across. They worked hard, remained professional, they did not reveal all of their personal business, get nasty, did not make alligations, that is how you need to do it.
You said you were talking to some folks about how to do this, don't talk read and listen and observe how the PATY did it and you can learn by far the best professional lesson of your life.

the place------I made the budget my goal and tried to find out why
it takes forever to have minutes posted of past meetings. I read
some of the minutes and it does not tell who voted on what issue
how each made his/her vote, the minutes are summaries.

You can't control yourself on a blog and yet you think I would put myself in a position to be alone with you? Are you insane, who in their right mind would do a meet & greet with you? You have issues and I HONESTLY WOULD BE AFRAID TO BE WITH YOU ALONE, HOWEVER WHEN I GO TO THE NEXT MEETING I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPEN TO SPEAK WITH YOU THERE IN A PUBLIC PLACE.
Re: Mass Protest?
posted at 7/15/2010 12:22 AM EDTFaranella just likes to argue. His favorite standby is "if you have a backbone". Real professional commentary right there. Then he says he has a movement of some kind going but won't say what it is (I think I know what kind of movement it is). He claims to have support from thousands of people who his hit pretend blog. I wonder who those people are and why won't they join him at these council meetings?
For his own state of mind he needs to come to the realization that what he wants is NOT going to be done in this town. He should either shut up or pack up. If he has a backbone, that is.

I care a lot about this City & Citizens and I have been to many of meetings in my time. I have a job that prevents me from being able to go to the meetings. When I have had the time off from work, you bet you bottm I have been there.
You don't always have to go to a meeting and lash out at the Council in odrder to get your point across to them. There are other ways you can do it in a mature manner.
I have also been to enough meetings to know that the Budget is a joke and that the Mayor saying he is going to cut positions is more of a scare tatic.
Based on the amount of residents/sq size of the city he has to have so many of each is mandatory.
We went though this last year with the FD and the DWP.
You can take your ideas and do what you want with them, but after a lot of your previous posts showing off (your aggression, anger, lack of professionalism and so on) not to many people like I said are going to want to headache of being involved with you.
There are 1000's of people who live in Malden who care about this community, do you think just because people don't have time to go to a meeting they don't care?
People have jobs, family, most are just walking in the door from work so give me a break. People don't have to go to the meetings to discuss with you or the Council how they feel in order to care about Malden.
Malden has it's problems no doubt, the Mayor of Malden is the biggest problem. If Howard was to leave office and we brought in someone new I can promise this City would do a 180.
Malden at one time was a beautiful city, it still can be, Malden used to be on the lower end of crime and that can still happen, Malden had decent schools, parks and things for the kids and again all of this still can be we just need to vote Howard the person holding us back out.

walks----it was never given to the council as a whole body.
My anger is that when Good sound Ideas are given to the Mayor &
my ward City Councilor it goes on deaf ears. I did the research and
wrote it professionally and than not hearing one word about it is
wrong. Now I ask a simple questions about the budget and make a
point why is the Police and Fire department and not one City Hall
worker gets laid off. than I ask what is happening to the $750,000
grant does the city have to return it or what, Not one reply?
That is Politically wrong and consider by other elected officials
say is rude but you say I am angry ---I never get angry I stay
the course and keep asking tough questions that our elected
are afraid to answer.
This Mayor is holding the city hostage.
Finally---In april I gave the city (Mayor and My Ward Councilor)
I submitted a Proposal about BiG Belly Solar Compactors for
the City---Go to the Web Site and read about them so far
22 cities in Massachusetts have them --as of today I have

in his pocket and not one will answer any e-mails asking tough
questions. I thought when I voted for my Ward Councilor thinking
he was honest but now he is just a puppet for the Mayor who
appointed him as Harbor Master.
Again the questions that still are not being answered is 1st--does
the City have to return the 750,000 dollars from a grant the city
received from the federal Government for the Fire Department.
The 2nd question is why is the police and fire Department have to
Layoff firefighters and Police Officers and not one person in City
Hall. Let get on this Page First than throw out this Council and
Mayor in the next Election.

You said you had thousands of hits on your blog. You said you were taking the summer off to work on your blog. You neither offer constructive ideas nor do you accept proper feedback. You can't possibly want a better Malden and at the same time continually threaten people by saying things like, "Let's meet face to face" like a school bully who wants to fight after class. You will never get anywhere continually using phraseology like "if you have a backbone" or referring to people as "spineless". You can't possibly think those spineless people with no backbones are going to give you the time of day EVER.
Faranella, concentrate on your health and family. Get off the computer for a bit, take a vacation from the law libraries and give it a rest like you said you would. No one is listening to you and they never will. The fact that you're so open with your name and address and personal information makes me think your family should intervene on your behalf in regards to your mental health and safety (yours AND your family's).
From this point on, I'm no longer responding to an obviously mentally unstable person.

Okay Frank you want my name, you want to meet, what you are is 100% insane.

than I asked does the city have to return the Federal Grant given
to the city for the Firefighters --remember it is for 750,000.00

E-mail all the Councilors--you ask how simple just go to this website

Ask then hard questions and see if they answer you;

Re[2]: OT RE: Networkers for Obama posted 11/04/2008
>Really? I wouldn't tie healthcare to socialism, if it wasn't the right who was doing it, let's see... probably for the last >30 years hrmm... Actually... no, that's not true. The right has never pitched universal healthcare. Universal healthcare requires funding (you don't work for free, neither do doctors, radiologists, etc), and the democrats would like to fund it using tax payer money. They can't tax those who don't pay income tax, so they would like to tax a 'bit more' from the wealthy... okay, a whole lot more. Okay, it's actually just thievery... a particular type of thievery known as socialism from each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs The folks tieing socialism to healthcare are the democrats. NOTE: the government can't give squat to anyone unless they tax it out of some one... or print paper... which is a tax in the form of inflation, and nobody (rich or poor) escape that tax Also, if the government 'got' universal healthcare, where are all the hospitals going to come from? Who is going to build a hospital if the amount of profit they can get from it is fixed? Answer: nobody Where are all the radiologists, cardiologists, neurosurgeons, let alone already scare RNs going to come from when their pay is going to be severly limited? Answer: nowhere What is going to happen to the waiting time in the ER which is already at five hours in Cleveland? Answer: you'll die waiting Where are the advancement in pharmaceuticals going to come from? Answer: nowhere Now, somebody will give us the answer that the government will build the hospitals (more taxing from the wealthy...), and the government will give loans to students (more taxes, probably crappier worker) and the government will mandate (how they'll enforce, we'll never know... they can't keep drugs off the streets, but they can enforce ->) a maximum hold queue (wfq? wtf?). They'll fund research into wonder drugs (but since you don't have to worry about keeping your job and you won't get paid extra for long hours...) Of course, taxing the wealthy will be an issue, because the suckers will leave the country. Oh, and we'll have less neurosurgeons ($250k and up), and less radiologisits ($250k and up), and less entrepeneurs... but it'll be okay. It's not like that group employe office staff... buy homes (construction)... eat at fine restaurants (entertainment industry).... pay taxes (accountants) or have any effect on the economy at all. The president creates jobs... it's not the entrepeneur. It's OKAY.... Because we'll have free healtchare (which is neither free nor really care of anybody's health at that point)... and it'll be worth every penny the person didn't pay for it.

Magnavox 32MF338B Review – 32-inch LCD HDTVOriginally Reviewed on July 15th, 2009
Magnavox 32MF338B Review: 32" LCD HDTV
Up for Review: Magnavox 32MF338B LCD TV. Philips unleashed the Magnavox 32MF338B and signaled its presence in the world of LCD TVs. Its 32" display is good enough to emphasize the exquisite picture quality of the set. It has a 720p resolution which is not up to the 1080p resolution of most HDTVs of today. However, since most of the programs telecast today are in 720p, it hardly affects the viewing experience. What matters is when you connect to a DVD player. You will miss the DVD quality on the HDTV. But considering the price of the HDTV, it is a good one.
The Magnavox 32MF338B has a widescreen HD picture with HDMI connectivity. This ensures that you can connect HD-ready devices like DVD players, camcorders and gaming consoles to the HDTV. So if you want to view your outing with friends on the big TV, then just plug in the camcorder and see the images in vivid color. Or else, you can watch the movies on the DVD player. Gaming is also a very interesting activity in which you can indulge in with your children or friends.
Magnavox 32MF338B Features and Specifications Review:
32" display
720p resolution
Dolby Digital sound
Integrated digital tuner
Multiple AV inputs
You have Dolby Digital Sound in the Magnavox 32MF338B. A review shows that the sound of this HDTV is very good. It also has an integrated digital tuner which can stream all signals which are free-to-air to the HDTV. You can watch all high definition programs on the Magnavox 32MF338B. Together with the tuner and HDMI, this HDTV also has multiple AV input options.
If you want, you can use the HDTV as a computer monitor. It will be better to see things on a bigger display and with much more clarity and intense colors. The PC input enables you to connect to a computer. The image quality of the Magnavox 32MF338B is above reproach. If you buy this HDTV, then you will be making a good investment. You will get the best in entertainment for a reasonable price and the power of the name of Philips.
HDTVUniverse.com gives Magnavox 32MF338B 8/10 stars!

"Hot enough for ya?" Back in the day, folks around here pretty much took changing weather in their stride. Hot in the summer, cold in the winter. The Good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise, changing seasons was just a fact of life.
Nowadays, we all expect to have our favorite television programs interrupted periodically, with doomsday messages streaming across the bottom of the screen, announcing that a "storm system" had appeared on the Doppler radar, just west of Lickskillet. Grab the young'uns and head for the root cellar, Maw, she's gonna blow!
Weather reporting—once the province of the Farmer's Almanac and Uncle Herbie's trick knee—is now big news. And, like news reporting itself, weather news reporting has devolved into a competitive blood sport; the nastier and more horrific the better. "Tsunami threatens Fairdale, film at 11."
If you paid any attention to the hyperbole regurgitated in the local media last week, you probably think Kentucky in general, and Louisville in particular, just suffered through one of the worst heat waves in recorded history. Weathercasters have adopted the habit of using scary graphics to inform viewers of the "heat index," instead of just talking about the temperature and the humidity. It's always a little humid in Louisville (we live next to a river), so when you have a moderately hot temperature—of, say, 90 degrees Fahrenheit—you can add in the humidity and end up with a heat index sufficient to cook a frozen pizza.
On the morning of July 24, WAVE-TV's Accuweather reported: "The big story this week across much of the nation was the heat. All-time record high temperatures fell as blazing sunshine made the mercury climb into the triple-digits."
And, grasping for and missing a suitable metaphor, the Courier-Journal breathtakingly reprinted this, from USA Today: "The urban Northeast baked like a potato wrapped in foil Friday as record-breaking, 100-degree temperatures and steambath humidity combined with the heat-trapping effects of asphalt and concrete to make millions of people miserable."
Makes you get all flushed and swoony just reading that stuff, doesn't it? But the truth is, there were very few high-temperature records broken in the U.S. last week; and none were broken in Kentucky. According to National Climatic Data Center, there were no temperature records broken on July 17, July 18, July 19, or July 20th. A total of 4 stations broke records on July 21, 20 on July 22, and 10 on July 23, 2011.
Out of over 6000 records previously set for each day since the government started keeping track of the weather, there were only 34 new all-time-high daily temperature records set during last week's "record-breaking heat."
But if you do a Google search of "record-breaking heat July 2011," you'll get about 35 million hits. That's about a million stories for each temperature record broken (we do the math, so you won't have to). Al Gore would be proud.
Here in Kentucky, NOAA's National Climatic Data Center web site reveals the following startling statistics:
KY All-Time Highest Max Temperature Records Set:
- July 17, 2011: 0 (Broken) + 0 (Tied) = 0 Total
- July 18, 2011: 0 (Broken) + 0 (Tied) = 0 Total
- July 19, 2011: 0 (Broken) + 0 (Tied) = 0 Total
- July 20, 2011: 0 (Broken) + 0 (Tied) = 0 Total
- July 21, 2011: 0 (Broken) + 0 (Tied) = 0 Total
- July 22, 2011: 0 (Broken) + 0 (Tied) = 0 Total
- July 23, 2011: 0 (Broken) + 0 (Tied) = 0 Total
Sure, it was hot last week here in River City. We call it "summertime."

I just purchased a repainted road bike that the owner claims is a late-'80s Italian Bertoni. He produced a black-anodized pantograped TTT stem from his garage, but nowhere else does the bike say "Bertoni." Thing is, looking at the various photos online and the 1987 Bertoni catalog at Velobase.com, there are a few "inconsistencies," i.e. my bikes dropouts dont say Columbus; it has rack mounts at the dropouts; its brake bridge is different; its chainstays attach to the seat tube differently; and it has bolt-on (rather than brazed) cable guides. There's a seven-digit serial number engraved in the bottom bracket (5786195), but that's the only i.d.
The drivetrain was upgraded to a Shimano 8-speed, but the rest is a hodge-podge with a Bontrager saddle and stem, Cannondale fat bar, Dia-Compe brakes, Sakae crank and Tektro levers. It's a sweet-riding bike that I would like to restore, but I'd like to know what it is before I sink a bunch more money into it.

Celebrity Estates: Honey, I Forgot the Kids
It is recommended that you review your will every few years or after major life events occur, such as the birth of a child. Not everyone takes the necessary steps, however, to protect their children. Consider these three stories of celebrities that left the kids in the lurch:
- When actor Heath Ledger died suddenly at age 29, his 2-year-old daughter, Matilda, was left out of his will. The actor's will was created before she was born and Ledger neglected to update it after she arrived. Ultimately, however, Ledger's family decided to give everything to Matilda.
- Author Michael Crichton died at the age of 66 when his wife was six months pregnant. His will at the time did not include provisions for the child. In fact, it had language excluding any new children. Court battles over whether the baby should be allowed to inherit ensued between Crichton's wife and his adult daughter from a previous marriage. After an extensive legal battle, the court ruled that the baby was entitled to share in the inheritance.
- James Brown didn't so much forget his seven kids, as he intentionally left them out of his will. Not close to his children, Brown wanted to give virtually his entire fortune to a trust to help educate underprivileged children. His family disputed these wishes, saying his attorneys talked him into creating the trust so they could profit from the management. After years of hearings, it was decided that nearly half of his fortune go to his charitable trust and the rest to Brown's children and most recent wife.
Learn From Their Mistakes
Updating your plans to reflect your current wishes is just one lesson you should take away from these celebrity stories. Another lesson: Communicate your wishes.
Talking with loved ones about your estate plans is an easy topic to put off. Many people believe it's a matter best kept between themselves and their professional advisors. Sharing your decisions with the people they affect, however, can provide peace of mind now and avoid misunderstandings later.
Tips for Communicating Your Wishes
Once you gather your loved ones, here are some tips to help you start the conversation:
- Thank your family for recognizing what this meeting means to you.
- Emphasize your goals and your concerns for the future of your loved ones.
- Detail the responsibilities, items and amounts you've chosen to give your family members and why.
- Express your desires and goals for any charitable gifts.

Lower rents have finally opened the door to Manhattan for Scarsdale-based Lulu Cake Boutique. The Westchester County bakery, which specializes in wedding cakes, recently signed a 10-year lease for 900 square feet at 112 Eighth Ave., between West 15th and West 16th streets, for its first Manhattan outpost, but not its last. Asking rent for the deal, which includes a 700-square-foot basement, was $125 a square foot.
�Lulu�s is swooping in while the prices are low and taking advantage of a decent leasing rate,� said Steve Rappaport, the Sinvin Realty broker who represented Lulu�s. He noted that rents are firming up in the area after suffering drops of 15% in the last year.
Lulu�s will open for business in three months, but in the meantime it is already looking around for additional outposts on the Upper East Side and Upper West Side, according to Mr. Rappaport. �They deliver between 25 and 100 cakes each week to Manhattan�they know they have a clientele here,� he said.
The Eighth Avenue space formerly housed a clothing boutique. Landlord the Brodsky Organization was represented in-house.

A person who claims to be an employee of Heroes of Might & Magic VI developer Black Hole Entertainment, lets it all hang out online as he or she lets publisher Ubisoft have it over destroying the company. The poster, known only by the moniker "Derpson" details the rocky development cycle of Heroes VI, and explains why Black Hole Entertainment is no longer working with Ubisoft. Ubisoft owns the Might and Magic intellectual property including "Might & Magic" and "Heroes of Might & Magic."
The original has been deleted by the person that wrote it, but it is still fully preserved in several posts and news stories circulating the internet this morning. Below you can find the entire post, which offers a laundry list of complaints blamed on Ubisoft, how the studio spent its own reserve cash to improve the game after release, and how Black Hole Entertainment may close due to its financial troubles. Check it out below:
"Hey guys. Several months have passed since the release of Heroes 6, and because there are so many questions from you regarding BH which UBI seemingly ignores, I feel it's time that I give you some information.
I worked for Black Hole during the whole H6 development. For us, it was a dream project as we were real fans of the Heroes series, having played it since the original King's Bounty on Commodore 64. And I can tell you it was the UBI producers who didn't keep their deadlines, and that was what led to a total failure of the whole development. Back in 2008, during the contract negotiation process, UBI business decision makers didn't want to hear about making it into the contract that in case of any UBI delays there would be any penalty for UBI. This was a stupid decision of a business development boss (she said "UBI would never be late with any deliverables"…. HAHAHA). And that led to an awkward situation where the whole development got snowed up… but the UBI producers kept telling Black Hole that "no worries, guys, there would be more time and budget, just do what we say". It was then that one faction, Academy had been removed from the content list, as well as many other things. And then, at half of the development, Romain suddenly quit, Erwan was removed from the project – he was "elevated" to the position of Might and Magic Brand Director, which meant his direct involvement in the development was over -, and BH was left there with the blame. Just an example, the final story script – which was UBI responsibility – was delivered to BH after 27 months… while originally there was 24 months for the whole development. No comment.
As for BH commitment, BH used up all its 6 months reserves just to be able to finish the project… this was more than 1 million Euros!!! And they (we) did this knowing it would never be payed back, as royalty would only be paid after 2M Heroes sold at full price. We all knew 2M copies would never be sold (neither at full price nor at reduced price), still we wanted to finish the project. During the last 10 months, our full team worked 24/7, without any chance for compensation… and because of this, we didn't have any resources to find other projects and make sure BH would survive after the release of Heroes 6. In the meantime, our new UBI producers kept telling that "the BH team is not working during the nights and weekends, and is not committed to the project at all…". I can only say, just ask any of the BH team members of their commitment…
As for the many bugs: Heroes 6 is a gigantic project, with 1.5-2 million lines in the source code. This is bigger than most RPGs. Such a project can only be finished with good quality if there are several years and a huge budget (i.e. Blizzard games), or if there is a strict design lock date after 7-9 months of the start of development… in case of Heroes, the UBI guys were adding new ideas and were changing existing features during the whole development, even at the last months, so it was simply impossible to make a stable game for release. Just see what they are now doing with patch 1.3 (BH is not involved in that at all btw.). They cannot release a simple patch with a few smaller fixes in time, they are already in a 2-3 weeks delay. This is because the code is extremely complex, and UBI does not have the team to overview it and make it work in time, even if the Limbic guys are really great (and no, they are not involved in the Heroes development from the project start, they joined like 20 months later).
Some examples of what BH added to the game at their own cost, just to make the game better:
– Town screen (we hate the current version, but it is still better then the "let's make a screen shot from the adventure map 3D town and use it as a town screen" that UBI wanted – we could have made a much better one, but didn't have money and time).
– Additional ingame cutscenes (I know cutscenes are not great, but again, we received the story after 27 months… we only had a couple months to make the cutscenes from scratch, and a very limited budget – and I think that the overall visual quality of the game proves to anyone that we could have made really great cutscenes if we had had the time and budget).
– 300 unique Combat Maps (there were 20 in the contract)
– 3D animated Main Menu (UBI wanted a simple still image)
– Additional NPCs
– Campaign Overview Map (Campaign Window)
– and many more……..
And what were the UBI decisions:
– Less resources
– No fullscreen town screens
– Only five factions (as a consequence of the continuous delays of UBI deliverables)
– Creature pool
– and many more such "great" changes………
This project cost Black Hole its existence… while UBI is making profit on Heroes 6.
And just some more thoughts: UBI EMEA were working with four 3rd party developers during the Heroes development:
– Capibara – They made the really good (and financially successful) Clash of Heroes. The are not working with UBI anymore.
– Eugene Systems – They made R.U.S.E. They are not working with UBI anymore.
– Black Hole – They made Heroes 6. They are not working with UBI anymore.
– Techland – They made a 47% game for UBI (Call of Juarez: The Cartel – http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/ca…rez-the-cartel) – They are still working with UBI EMEA on a big project.
We heard the UBI guys blame those developers (and Nival) many times… I guess BH was blamed the same way to those developers.
It is always the developer who is responsible…
Just some food for thought…. Thanks guys for reading."
Ubisoft has not made any public comment on this rather lengthy post, which has since been deleted by its author. While there is probably a lot of truth in the statement above, there is also no denying that it offers a heavily slanted distribution of the facts based on this particular person's perspective.
Thanks to bugmenot for the tip, as well as Strategy Informer and the RPS forums.

Frind gets Serious about a Paid Model
PlentyofFish's Markus Frind announced last week plans to add a pay option aimed at customers who want to show that they're "serious" about meeting someone.
According to Frind's blog, PlentyofFish will sell "Serious Member" badges that will appear on members' pages for three, six or 12 months. Serious members will be marked as such in search results, and their messages to prospective partners will be highlighted. I'll let him explain:
- On paid dating sites most buys are impulse and in the signup process. Paid sites monetize on Impulse, plentyoffish is going to monetize on user intent. I believe we will have far more members that are serious than paid sites. Its one thing to be tricked into paying (paid sites), its another to go out of your way and pay for something.
- There will be no addtional features and funcationality for users, this upgrade will be strictly to signal intent to the community.
- There will be no changes to existing users or new users. The site will continue to work as it always has, except some members can now choose to stand out more.

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer Now.
Have you deeded your interest in the property away?
I have deeded nothing to anyone,
If you still have an ownership interest, you have a right to your portion of the property - even if she files bankruptcy. If she files, you will have to file a motion to lift the automatic stay and then institute a partition action against her to divide and sell the property in order to acquire your interest.
If you want the property, you can buy her out and turn over any proceeds over to the bankruptcy trustee.
This could get a little complicated, so if she does file, you should hire an attorney to help you out.

PHILADELPHIA — Patients with uveitis, the fifth leading cause of vision loss in the United States, treated with either systemic anti-inflammatory medicine or with a time-release implant surgically placed inside the eye experienced a similar degree of visual improvement over two years, according to a new study from researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University and the University of Wisconsin. Results from the Multicenter Uveitis Steroid Treatment (MUST) Trial, supported by the National Eye Institute (NEI), are published online in the journal Ophthalmology.
"The results of the MUST Trial will guide the management of uveitis for many years to come," said John Kempen, MD, PhD, associate professor of Ophthalmology and Epidemiology, and the study's vice-chair. "Given that the visual results are similar at two years between the two approaches, clinicians can utilize whichever of the treatments best fits the anticipated side effect profile for an individual patient. Because the implant approach more often succeeds in controlling inflammation, the results suggest to me a role for implant therapy when systemic therapy is not working out well. The low risk of side effects of systemic therapy we observed should be encouraging to all physicians who manage inflammatory diseases with corticosteroids and immunosuppressants."

Dinosaur guitarists
Guitarists of the 1960s are a dinosaur breed. They found their roots in folk, blues and jazz - the music of the past - and they added something of their own to the existing song forms, melodic and harmonic ideas of the day. What's interesting is the variety of popular music that came out of that era. Sociologists would probably mention the societal climate as a major contributor. I think the music of the era owes a lot to the artistic independence of the musicians, producers and record companies of the day. There were a lot of "beginners" in the business back then.
That beginner's mindset really helped. I'd argue that musical creativity has become increasingly stifled over the past four decades. A lot of the lost creativity in the modern era seems to come from loss of creative control, which is what happens as the business of music becomes increasingly populated by business people rather than artists and visionaries. Signed bands have always had A&R guys telling them what they "have to do" to make their next release more successful than the last. Regrettably, the A&R guys are trend followers, not trend setters. Their careers depend upon selling music, and the best they can do is to look at what sold yesterday. (Actually, what they should do is to stay out of the way.)
The music business isn't the only thing that has changed in the past forty years. Guitarists back then were - on average - not the equal of modern guitarists, when considered as technicians of the instrument. And some of them simply didn't know when not to play - some lead guitarists would solo during the entire song! That's a lost art, if you ask me. If you want to hear someone that can actually make that work, check out some of the dinosaur rockers from the late 60s and early 70s: Tony Iommi, Jorma Kaukonen, Ted Nugent, Leslie West, Jimmy Page and Richie Blackmore all spring to mind. The difference is, they played with the song, not over it. Modern guitarists would probably say that the dinousaurs had no technique. I'd argue that they could at least find a melody...

Open Window Study Guide Now Available!
Are you looking for a film about sexual assault to discuss with your school, educational group, or family? Open Window, which debuted on Showtime, is a powerful film that inspires hope as it explores the effects of rape on survivors and their loved ones. Written and directed by Mia Goldman, the film is inspired by Goldman's own experience with sexual violence.
In response to requests from educators, the producers of Open Window recently released a study guide, Rape and a Path to Recovery, to facilitate discussion of the film and sexual assault. The study guide, co-written by RAINN, correlates with key scenes from the film and is ideal for use by educators, therapists, group discussion leaders, or parents.
A PSA by actress Cybill Shepherd, featuring the National Sexual Assault Hotline, appears at the end of the film (You can also view this PSA here.)
You can purchase the Open Window DVD and study guide; the producer will donate $2 to RAINN for every guide sold.

In December 2013, the Appellate Division rolled out a decision in State v. Saavedra that somewhat quiets the thunder of the Supreme Court's 2010 ruling in Quinlan v. Curtiss-Wright, an employment discrimination case where the court determined that an employee who copied her employer's confidential documents for use in litigation against the company was engaged in protected activity within the meaning of the Law Against Discrimination (LAD). Quinlan v. Curtiss-Wright, 204 N.J. 239 (2010).
Quinlan vexed employers and their representatives, who criticized the decision for having the effect of emboldening employees to misappropriate confidential documents—a problem that was apparent even before, and could only be exacerbated by, this decision. Saavedra has partially tempered this storm, as the Appellate Division announced that employees who take confidential employer documents to support potential LAD and Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA) claims will not categorically be insulated from criminal prosecution under theft and official misconduct statutes. State v. Saavedra, 433 N.J. Super. 501 (App. Div. 2013).
In Quinlan, the plaintiff, Joyce Quinlan, filed a sex discrimination claim against her employer, Curtiss-Wright, after being passed over for a promotion in favor of a male co-worker. During her employment, Quinlan photocopied approximately 1,800 confidential company documents to use in support of her claim, which she turned over to her attorney. Curtiss-Wright first learned of Quinlan's actions when her attorney produced the documents during discovery. At that point, Quinlan was not terminated. Quinlan then came across the performance evaluation of the male co-worker who received the promotion she sought. She copied the document and gave it to her attorney, who used it during a deposition. When it was revealed during that deposition that Quinlan was continuing to confiscate confidential documents, Curtiss-Wright terminated Quinlan's employment. Quinlan then amended her complaint to add a retaliation claim. The Supreme Court upheld an $8.7 million jury verdict in favor of Quinlan, finding that Quinlan's termination constituted unlawful retaliation on the basis that the reason for her termination—the unauthorized taking and use of confidential company documents in support of her LAD claims—constituted protected activity. In doing so, the court established a seven-part totality of the circumstances test to determine whether an employer can terminate its employee for the unauthorized removal of documents for the purpose of supporting claims of discrimination.
Meanwhile, one year before the court decided Quinlan, Ivonne Saavedra filed suit against her employer, the North Bergen Board of Education, her supervisor and others, alleging claims of gender, ethnic and sex discrimination under the LAD as well as retaliation under CEPA. Saavedra was employed by the board as a clerk for a child study team. During discovery, Saavedra's attorney produced several hundred confidential board documents, some of which were originals, that had been taken by Saavedra during the course of her employment. Among the documents taken were highly sensitive documents which appeared to have no relevance to Saavedra's discrimination claims, including a bank statement provided to the board by a parent, a document containing treatment notes of a psychiatrist who treated students with special needs in the district, a document related to a Medicaid reimbursement program which the board was required to maintain on file in order to avoid liability exposure, and a letter from a parent regarding an emotional problem of the parent's child.
After the documents were turned over in discovery, the board's counsel reported Saavedra's conduct to the Hudson County prosecutor, who determined that the matter should be presented to a grand jury. In May 2012, then two years after the Quinlan decision was issued, the grand jury indicted Saavedra and charged her with official misconduct and theft. Saavedra made a motion to dismiss the indictment, arguing that the Quinlan decision legalized the taking of confidential documents for the purpose of supporting LAD or CEPA claims, and that criminalizing Saavedra's conduct would have a chilling effect on potential plaintiffs looking to raise such claims.
Both the trial court and the Appellate Division disagreed with Saavedra's reading of Quinlan, finding that the decision did not establish, and was not intended to establish, an absolute right for employees asserting discrimination claims to take their employers' confidential documents. Given the determination that a Quinlan analysis was not called for, Saavedra's motion was evaluated based on the same well-settled standards applicable to all such motions, that is, that the motion should be denied if the state could produce sufficient evidence to establish a prima facie case that the defendant committed a crime (citing State v. Hogan, 144 N.J. 216, 236 (1996)).
In reaching this conclusion, the Appellate Division emphasized the factual differences between Quinlan and the matter before it, emphasizing that Quinlan was a civil matter, not a criminal one, that Quinlan concerned the conduct of a private individual, not a public employee, and that the documents at issued in Quinlan were directly relevant to the plaintiff's claims, while the same was not clear with respect to those taken by Saavedra. The court also voiced many of the concerns harbored by critics of the Quinlan decision, namely, that Saavedra's self-help measures were not required in light of the abundance of lawful discovery avenues available to her, coupled with other safeguards for employees who might believe their employers will hide or destroy evidence, such as adverse inference charges.
Ultimately, Saavedra's motion to dismiss the indictment was denied, but the Appellate Division did note that Saavedra could assert an affirmative defense at trial that she honestly believed she had a right to the documents in question. In a strongly worded dissent, Judge Simonelli contended that it was fundamentally unfair to prosecute and imprison an individual for taking confidential employer documents while engaged in protected activity pursuant to the LAD and CEPA. The majority responded to this criticism, noting that a dismissal of the indictment would amount to the establishment of a public policy that employees must categorically be insulated from criminal prosecution if they take confidential documents to support LAD and CEPA claims—an approach the majority contended would violate the separation of powers doctrine.
While the Saavedra decision marks a step forward for employers looking to defend their confidential documents from unauthorized access and improper disclosure, the outlook going forward is anything but certain. The factual and procedural differences between Quinlan and Saavedra leave many gaps to be filled in by lower courts, and, of course, Supreme Court review of this matter would not come as a surprise. These occasions for interpretation and review may give employers opportunities to further chip away at the Quinlan decision, by appealing to concerns that self-help discovery should not supplant New Jersey's well-established discovery procedures—a position that was espoused to some degree by the Saavedra court. In the meantime, while employers can be certain that Quinlan will not prevent the prosecution of public employees engaging in theft or official misconduct, the practical effect of the Saavedra decision is limited. Employers and their representatives should monitor further review of these decisions and should continue to avoid knee-jerk disciplinary reactions when dealing with employees engaging in self-help discovery in furtherance of discrimination or retaliation claims. •
