A devastating EARTHQUAKE of 6.9 in Sikkim and parts of northern India on 18th September
2011 has been followed by 50 further after-
We, at Rigul Trust, have offered Rinpoche help with setting up an appeal for the
earthquake in Sikkim.
Ringu Tulku Rinpoche wishes this to be called the Sikkim Earthquake Relief Work Appeal.
To donate to the Sikkim Earthquake Relief Work Appeal by Paypal allows you to use your Paypal account or your credit/debit card and from your own currency.
The remoteness of much of this underdeveloped mountainous region and road closures
from land slips has made it a very difficult task to get any help to the region and
9 villages were still completely cut off. 2 weeks after the earthquake happened.
With rescue teams facing difficulties to reach some far-
100% of all donations sent through this secure PayPal site will go
to the Sikkim Earthquake Relief Work. PayPal accepts all currencies.
An email from Rinpoche on 23rd September from Kathmandu :
Dear Margaret,
Maybe this is the time to help. There are lots of destruction.
Even Rumtek Shedra's new building is badly cracked.
There was one earthquake last night and one today afternoon and destroyed at least one building in Gangtok.
Lots of schools are destroyed fully. Many monasteries are also badly damaged.
We do not get any news from tv and radio any more. Rain is still pouring. Ringu Tulku
Recent Disaster Relief by Rigul Trust:
In the last two years we have set up two emergency appeals, one for the survivors
of the Yushu earthquake 2010 and one for the Ladakh flood disaster last year where
we supported the relief work that Khenpo Rangdol, Principal of Kagyu College, Dehradun
was in charge of.
100% of all donations went to these projects. We also helped fund emergency relief work in Yushu province of Tibet and now we have an ongoing sponsorship programme for 14 little children who were orphaned as a result of Yushu earthquake. We sent money for the buying and distribution of barley.
And in Ladakh we sent money for emergency relief and the reforestation of trees.
Khenpo Rangdol went to Ladakh, oversaw the projects and distributed the money.
This is background information for you to know that all of what we do is overseen by Rinpoche, 100% of your donations gets to the targeted projects. We are extremely careful with whom we deal with and Rinpoche always has the last say.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -- A central Florida woman has been sentenced
to 20 years for fatally stabbing her boyfriend.
An Orange County judge sentenced 38-year-old Michelle Wheeler on
Tuesday. She pleaded no contest to manslaughter with a weapon as
part of a plea deal. She had originally been charged with
second-degree murder.
Authorities say Wheeler stabbed 37-year-old Jerry Cisco in the
chest following a January 2009 domestic disturbance in Ocoee. He
was taken to a nearby hospital, where he died.

A 22-year-old Lincoln man was arrested and another man expelled from the mall in front of the state capitol early today, as 45 Lincoln police officers emerged at 4 a.m. and cleared out the last two protesters who remained after a 202-day campout on the cement and grass mall.
Lincoln native and University of Nebraska-Lincoln student Jeff Eggerss said he was arrested as he tried to videotape the police operation. He spent about an hour-and-a-half in jail before posting $50 bail. Public Safety Director Tom Casady said Eggerss was arrested for failing to comply with a lawful order – because the city had notified the campers they had to leave by May 1.
Mayor Chris Beutler watched the operation, which he described as uneventful. The protesters said police also had a helicopter and canine unit. The Occupy Lincoln "general assembly" agreed in February to leave the space by May 1.
Within a half hour, the operation was over – but the protesters say things didn't go nearly as smoothly as city officials say. They claim they were lied to by city officials repeatedly in the last few months, so they went to a press conference the mayor held this morning to talk about the operation.
About 10 members of Occupy Lincoln sat along the walls during Beutler's press conference. As Beutler and other city officials talked about the police raid, the Occupy Lincoln folks made it clear they didn't agree with the city's version of events. One was tearful, another snorted in disgust, others murmured and one held a sign that said "Hey City, your true colors are showing."
At one point, the mayor's chief of staff, Rick Hoppe, told the Occupiers if they didn't be quiet they'd have to leave. The Occupy Lincoln's good relationship with the city was clearly destroyed even before 45 police officers started moving in formation across the mall this morning.
"We have treated this group as well or better as any occupation group in the entire country," Beutler said. "We think it is fair to say we have bent over backwards to protect their rights."
However, Occupy Lincoln member Dana Garrison, a college student, said after the press conference that the protesters were led to believe that if they left Centennial Mall they could go to a second location, at 30th and Capitol Parkway. However, they were evicted from that location on Tuesday.
She said the mayor's chief of staff, Hoppe, attended every weekly Occupy Lincoln meeting for a month and pressured protesters into agreeing to leave by May 1. She said he gave them maps of public spaces where the group could set up a second camp primarily for the homeless people, but after that camp was set up, the mayor and other city officials came and said they had to leave. She said the mayor was apparently unaware of the deal Hoppe made with them because Beutler told them, "Are you people playing games with us? I thought we had a deal."
During the press conference, Beutler called all that a misunderstanding.
"We don't believe we made representations in either of those areas," he said. "We could never agree to allow them to go from one place to another."
Beutler said during the press conference that setting up camp near the residential area was "not in the best interests of the neighborhood or the homeless people themselves."
Garrison said Police Chief Jim Peschong also said police wouldn't come in force to expel them, but did. The Occupiers believe city officials did not like having Lincoln's homeless population on display, rather than hidden away in corners.
The Centennial Mall grassy areas were surrounded by orange fencing Wednesday morning, and city officials now plan to enact legislation to close the legal loophole that allowed the protesters to be on the mall for so long. Beutler said legislation will be brought to the Lincoln City Council to provide "more appropriate venues" for free speech.
He said while the protesters have a right to the First Amendment through demonstration, they cannot obstruct access to public spaces by others.
"Free speech doesn't mean you can build a house on the mall," Beutler said. "We were caught with a law that had a gap in it and we fixed it."
The council will be asked to amend portions of the municipal code defining parks to include areas being maintained and supervised by the parks department. Another section of the code on public spaces will be amended to restrict tents on public property.
A public hearing on the code changes will be held May 14, with the council expected to vote the following week, on May 31.

The largest collection of Montana beers ever assembled was at Caras Park in Missoula Saturday for the Montana Brewers Festival.
70 different local brews from 20 different Montana breweries were on tap.
Micro-breweries are taking off in the state - Montana recently became the state with the second highest number of breweries per capita in the country.
Ryan Newhouse, who writes for Montanabeerfinder.com, said sales are up 12 percent this year over last year.
"A lot of good beers, they're really excited about what they're creating, and Montana's the perfect place for it," said Newhouse. "We've got great water, we've got great grains that are grown in this state, and we've got a lot of creativity. Beer's a booming business."

It takes three things to make a decent nature documentary and here they are: fresh eye-popping nature footage, great narration, and a compelling musical score. Of those three things, earth has exactly none of them. Instead Disney has recycled footage youve already seen in the acclaimed (and fairly wonderful) television miniseries Planet Earth, spliced it together in the most haphazard fashion imaginable, and then attempted to make it all stick by hiring a much past his prime James Earl Jones to read half-thought out narration which seems as if it was originally intended for Ryan Seacrest. Have it all scored by the worlds most apathetic orchestra and then settle in for a nap, because youve just been unlucky enough to buy a ticket for earth, a big screen nature documentary so lazy it couldnt even manage a capital letter.
Were it merely that earth recycles old footage from Planet Earth that might be forgivable. At least then I could recommend it for people who havent seen Planet Earth and want to get a feature length, condensed version to see what all the fuss is about. But its the way in which earth presents that recycled data that makes it so unforgivable. Theres no real thought put into it, no coherent plan for how to present it. One minute theyre wrapping it in the mantle of animals and their families and how they fit into the environment, the next were sitting through a fifteen minute sequence on waterfalls.
The film starts with polar bears and seems as if its attempting to organize our cinematic globe hopping by hemisphere, as the narration takes us south. That doesnt last and soon the movies jumped somewhere else entirely, and starts making a case that no, its all about the seasons. Wait no, its not about the seasons instead were going to see the planet through the lens of the migration of a humpback whale oh wait back to those polar bears that one looks like hes dying but the whales which are on the other side of the planet and are in no way connected to the polar bear are just fine except for their proximity to sharks. Oh look, a shark who has nothing to do with the whales! Hey its December lets watch the leaves change.
earth is a disaster, a real killer for Disneys fledging DisneyNature division. I cant imagine what they were thinking by releasing this shit. Theres nothing here for anyone. Even the Planet Earth footage, which seemed pretty spectacular on television in HD, is rendered mostly inert here by lackluster presentation and James Earl Jones persistent, poorly written narration. The film isnt even educational; its far too disjointed to convey any meaning. If they were going to repurpose a bunch of old nature footage weve already seen, then they should have jazzed it up with a gimmick. Toss in some 3D or at least write a decent script for it. As it is earth is the most boring, unbearable 90 minutes Ive spent in a theater this year, and I sat through Street Fighter. If natures what you crave, youll have more fun sitting on your porch and watching mosquitoes impact with a bug zapper.

It takes guts for a leader to admit when he or she is wrong, and even more so in front of an underling because it implicates the boss is part of the problem.
But it is a necessary step when seeking to improve a failing situation. It reinforces the leader's character. In this video, I present two questions that leaders need to ask themselves when things have gone wrong.

3 responses to "2 questions to help you resolve a failure"
Great guidance, John. Humility and avoiding the question "WHY?" are critical. Here is a related post expanding on your "WHAT?…" questions–helps others get past "Well…I don't know" by asking what they see, what alternatives may look like. This accelerates their engagement in the solutioning. This article addresses change leadership, but this type of questioning (Socratic, picture language) applies to any solutioning/coaching.
Here in Japan this is just common sense and daily manner.
Can tell you that it works more than all the sermon
Because it's about how one feels really in front of others
Admitting failure, especially when you are in a leadership position, is one of the hardest things to do. It not only takes courage, but you'll definitely need tons of humility as well.

Eva is a very friendly host who answers messages quick and is available to assist at anytime.
A little drawback was that the heating could not be adjusted by hand thereby the climate was far too hot and we had to sleep with open windows.
All in all the apartment looked like in the pictures but not that new.
Eva was a very nice host, we really enjoyed our stay. The appartement is very close to the subway, but you can easily walk to nice locations.
Everything was clean and cozy. Thank you, Eva!

Happy Friday, friends! Ready for the weekend? I am!
This past Sunday, right before I started meal-planning, I came across this recipe from Sarah. (If you're not reading Sarah's blog, it's a must! Every single recipe looks absolutely delicious!)
I had been wanting to make turkey burgers, & the recipe required so few ingredients that I decided to give it a go.
Turkey bacon fail #1.
I finally got around to making them last night, but for some reason I was feeling too "lazy" to prep the turkey bacon to top the burgers. I figured the burger would be tasty on its own (it was!) & simply added ketchup & mustard to my whole wheat bun.
I had also planned to roast some potatoes (or at least bake some Alexia frozen fries!) but my hunger took over & I settled for some barbeque Popchips.
Fast forward to today… I decided that after work, no matter what, I was finally going to treat myself to a little shopping. I've been dying to go shopping for some new spring clothes (I even have some gift cards to spend!) but I just haven't been able to find the time for it.
I first stopped at Finish Line where I picked up some desperately-needed new sneakers. What do you think?
Side story: As I was deciding on what pair of shoes I wanted to try, one of the salesmen came up to me & told me he thought the pair I was looking at was ugly. Hmmm… kind of rude & counter-productive to his job, but thanks for the fashion tip friend! 😉 (And don't worry, I had another worker actually help me!)
My next stop was Old Navy, but sadly I didn't find anything that really grabbed me. Old Navy is usually hit-or-miss with me, & today it was a miss! I had to quickly stop to pick up a baby shower gift, then I was off to Target. I got a cute, navy wrap dress, as well as new workout shorts & a workout top. I really need clothes for work, but I was sucked in by those darn $9.99 C9 items!
Anyway, by the time I finally arrived home & took the pug out for a quick walk, I was ravenous!
Turkey bacon fail #2.
I had already planned to make this mac 'n' cheese, & since I didn't use my turkey bacon last night, I had every intention of cooking up a few slices to throw into the mix. However, between the pasta-boiling, bread-crumb-making, & cauliflower-chopping, it must have totally slipped my mind! Just as I was piling the breadcrumbs on top of everything, I remembered my good intentions! Guess I'll have to find yet another use for the turkey bacon!
Evening plans include lots of pug snuggling…
…& hopefully staying awake long enough to see my second-shift-working husband! (12:00AM is asking a lot on a Friday evening!)
Tomorrow, I'm planning on attending spin class, then doing a major clean of our apartment (it's needed!).
Sunday, Chris & I are going to check out another potential house:
Pretty, right? Word has it there's a fenced-in yard for you know who! 😉
Are you a fan of bacon? Any ideas on how I can use up my stash of turkey bacon?
What are you doing this weekend?

Foreign-body ingestion is a relatively common presentation at emergency departments, but long metallic spoon swallowing is an infrequent occurrence. Unlike most cases of foreign-body ingestion, there have been no reported cases of long foreign bodies reaching the jejunum. We report a rare case of a coffee spoon that was swallowed accidentally and passed through the pylorus and duodenal loop and reached the jejunum, with no complications.

Foreign body ingestion is a frequent gastrointestinal emergency. However, long spoon swallowing is a rare event. Most swallowed spoons have been found in the stomach[1-4]. Previously, there has been no reported case of a long spoon reaching the jejunum. We present a rare case of a swallowed spoon with a length of 15 cm. The object passed through the pylorus and reached the jejunum, without clinical complications.
A 33-year-old woman presented to our emergency room after accidentally swallowing a spoon. She stated that she attempted to use the spoon to remove a fish bone, which was lodge in the pharynx 20 h previously. She had no abdominal pain, fever, vomiting, dysphagia, voice change, cough, or difficulty breathing. The patient was previously healthy and her past medical history was insignificant. General and abdominal examination was unremarkable. There was no abnormal finding in the laboratory tests.
An urgent plain abdominal radiograph revealed a metallic foreign body in the lower mid-abdomen (Figure 1). Inspection and removal was attempted by flexible gastroscopy. Gastroscopy found that a long spoon was resident in the stomach, together with a large volume of food (Figure 2). However, several attempts to remove the spoon failed because the patient could not tolerate the resultant nausea when the spoon was pulled to the cardia. There was a small amount of bleeding around the cardia. To follow-up the migration of the spoon, a second abdominal radiograph showed that the object position had changed (Figure 3). The second endoscopy confirmed that the foreign body disappeared from the stomach. She had to be taken to the operating room for an exploratory laparotomy, which disclosed that a 15-cm spoon had passed into the jejunum, following about 200 cm of the ligament of Treitz (Figure 4). Laparotomy demonstrated no free pus and fluid within the peritoneal cavity. Blood supply for the intestine was good. No bleeding and perforation was found in the stomach and intestine. After surgery, the patient was well and was discharged home on postoperative day 7.
Fortunately, most ingested foreign bodies pass spontaneously from the gastrointestinal tract. However, 10%-20% require nonoperative intervention, and ≤ 1% require surgery[3,5,6]. Foreign bodies may cause serious complications such as impaction, obstruction, or perforation of the digestive or respiratory tracts. When complications occur, there is a relatively high rate of mortality, with death rates as high as 1500 deaths per year in the United States[7].
We tried to remove the spoon by endoscopy. However, our patient could not tolerate the discomfort associated with endoscopy, which had to be discontinued. Surprisingly, the spoon passed through the pylorus and duodenal loop several hours later. We had to remove the foreign body by surgery. In previous studies, long items such as forks or spoons, longer than 6-10 cm, have been unable to pass through the duodenal sweep[5,6]. A Medline search indicated that other swallowed spoons have been found only in the esophagus and stomach. It has not been reported previously that a 15-cm spoon has passed through the pylorus and duodenal loop and reached the jejunum.

I don't but my grandson does. My yellow/black Moto is "Bumble Bee" from Transformers. He also named my pearlescent white Lambo Tandem "Jazz" from Transformers thinking it looked silver. He also named several other bikes, but I don't ride them much so I can't remember the names.
I tend to refer to them by contractions of their brand - ie: Moto, Lambo, etc.

Old Blue -- Mid 80s Vitus all aluminum
The Rat -- an early 90s KHS Montana Comp converted to a utility bike.
I like to name mine after the wives of rock stars. My current road bike is Bianchi Jagger. ;-)
I never name them, but they sometimes arrive at the stable with a name already attached. Only two of the twenty or so currently in residence currently have names: Betsy (an old Schwinn lugged frame converted to fixed gear decades ago, named by by sister-in-law) and Wicked Witch (my mom's Schwinn step-through from the '70s, named by my sister). Since these are the two bikes with the largest baskets, they get the most in-town miles.
Only an artistic, creative type person would name a bicycle. Or a boat.
All the mathematical and scientific types seem to prefer using sterile manufacturer names or numbers.
Mine's "Lady Xizang". And I can't remember all my different boats' names...
Who is John Galt?
Blue bike, black bike, bent, or tandem. I'm not very creative I guess...
My Surly Long Haul Trucker is named La Vaca Azul.
It's a good day to ride.
Cannondale Saeco CAD3
Specialized Sirrus Elite
Surly Long Haul Trucker
Surly Cross Check
You guys are all so boring.
The Merlin is called Gandalf, because he's also a wizard.
The now-commuter (and my first road bike) is called Cea, which is short for Boudiccea, which is another variant of my screen name, which was the name of an Iceni warrior who burned London to the ground in Roman times. (Strong woman role model?) I think she's feeling neglected because I don't ride her as much as I am not commuting right now.
The Friday is called Ami, which is short for Origami, because she folds. It also means friend in French, although the pronounciation is different from mine.
Zero gallons to the mile
My bikes are referred to by their manufacturer or model, whichever is shorter easier: Roubaix, Blur, Airborne, BMC... Perhaps boring or unimaginative, but straightforward and useful when discussing them with others.
I don't name my bikes but I do talk to them.
My Litespeed (my main ride) is my friend. We talk a lot.
My Specialized (which I'm STILL trying to get dialed in) gets called a POS a lot. Most days I say to myself, "I wish I would have bought the Cannondale."
I have a Trek FX so i just call it "The fx" -- boring i know!!
Read Simply Cycle

Redmond Rousers, at the NW Harvest site where Rotarians and friends come to volunteer one day a month. More than 8000 lbs of frozen carrots were re-packaged into small 1-2 lb bags to be given out at the local food banks. "This is so cool to get to help behind the scenes", said Martina. "It really makes you think about people who need food & how it gets to them. I'm glad I was able to help out today. I want to comeback again & bring some friends next time".

Horoscopes By Tracy Allen
February 19–March 20
You may find yourself reviewing the past, with Mercury—planet of thinking—retrograde in your sign. Mercury encounters five other planets this week, connecting your innermost thoughts with nearly everything that's going on in your life. Your desire, your love life and your creativity may seem incongruent with your family's expectations or a busy home life, and getting what you want could feel out of the question at the moment. But if you consider the whole network of people in your life, you'll start to see that what you're wishing for is altogether possible. Committing to a mature, responsible philosophy of dealing head-on with reality will empower you, as will honoring a dream that comes from deep within you, possibly dating back many years. You need to combine the best of yourself, the best of your heritage, the best of your connections and the best of your belief in the future to build something of substance.
March 21–April 19
You can gain access to the contents of your unconscious this week, an opportunity that you'd be wise to take advantage of for your own benefit. When Mercury and Venus in your subliminal zone spar with Jupiter in your cognition sector, thoughts and desires that you're only vaguely aware come into conflict with your conscious mindset or that which you hold to be true. However, this repressed material meshes well with your evolving goals and the inner workings of a relationship. Bringing things into the light for further consideration will enable you to see how commitment and trust are linked with your core ambitions. You may think you know what your hopes for the future are, but you can discover things about yourself now that show you how aiming deeper may be even more pertinent than aiming higher.
April 20–May 20
With your ruler Venus and retrograde Mercury in your network sector clashing with expectant Jupiter in your worth house, it's possible that your week will start and/or end with a misunderstanding over money or values. Don't force the issue; instead, contemplate what it is that you want from people and which friendships are and aren't working. Think about what you're hoping to accomplish in your next chapter, now that something in your life has wound down. People are capable of broadening your perspective and shifting your beliefs, emboldening you to conceive of a brighter future. Committing to the solid people in your life can give you the courage to change what needs changing. Rather than presuming that others should value what you value and believe what you believe, let their differences open up your world.
May 21–June 20
Mercury—backtracking in your ambition angle—encounters the sun and Venus there; clicks with Saturn in your work zone and Pluto in your sharing sector; and clashes with Jupiter in your sign this week. It's natural for you to revisit a goal in your head, but with Mercury retrograde, don't try to verbalize your thoughts to anyone just yet. It's easy to get ahead of yourself now by riding the wave of your ambition. Take this time to investigate something further and to do the grunt work. Although your ideas aren't ready to be shared with the world, do feel free to share them with a partner or collaborator. If you're reworking something important, be sure to keep a record of it for future reference. Use fantasy for inspiration now, but don't take it too literally.
June 21–July 22
Your enthusiasm about the future has you on a mission of sorts, but with mental Mercury retrograde for the time being, it's more useful to rethink your beliefs than to preach them. You might be espousing a perceived truth that's not in keeping with an unconscious truth trying to surface. With several planets packed into your opinions sector, there's a danger of becoming a tad overzealous or self-righteous. But you can get an invaluable education now from a strong mentor, so adopt an attitude of seeking and let a love of learning be your motivation. You're taking yourself more seriously as a person who has something unique to express, and you should also take your audience seriously. You can get closer to someone this week by respecting yourself and him or her enough to be entirely real and raw emotionally.
July 23–August 22
With planets in your sharing sector connecting with heavyweights Saturn and Pluto and sparring with Jupiter, ruler of expectations, it's an ideal time to ask yourself whether you're honoring your commitments with integrity. Are you fulfilling your contracts, and if not, what kind of revision do they need? A contract need not be of the legal or written variety, but can also simply be an agreement between parties—both spoken and unspoken. The implicit agreements that bind us to others can be particularly thorny. It's also a good week to look at how you spend your time and what you do for work and to examine how well those choices reflect your integral values. Does your schedule say something about who you are at your core? Are you being as true as possible to your agreements not only with others, but with yourself as well?
August 23–September 22
Your energy, your mind and your heart are all focused on relationships this week, with the vibrant sun, mental Mercury and affectionate Venus coming together in your partnership house. Be careful not to pin your hopes on someone to deliver concrete results, since optimistic Jupiter in your ambition angle is sparring with two out of those three planets. Opt for responsible, careful, mature communication and serious thinking over disproportionate expectations and exaggerated speech. Revisit a relationship issue, and delve into the dark, intense emotions in your heart, but again, be mindful of how you convey them. If a relationship—romantic or otherwise—isn't on your radar, then this time could just as well be about painstakingly planning a creative project and going over the specifics of bringing it to fruition and presenting it to others.
September 23–October 22
Half the planets are crowded into your duties sector, keeping you plenty busy with work and other responsibilities. Your ruler Venus is in this cluster, calling your attention to relations with coworkers and prompting you to question what you want out of your job—and furthermore, your day. You may realize that the way you use your time isn't in keeping with your view of the future, your sense of adventure or your quest for learning. The urge to break free from routine may cause you to overdo it some way, possibly impacting your health. But if you can start to connect the dots between your habits, your work, your wellness, your home life, your values, your talents and your finances, you'll be making excellent use of this time in your life. An additional piece of the puzzle that may help: You're separating from your family history in some way, and that's essential to taking your gifts and your ability to provide for yourself seriously.
October 23–November 21
This isn't an easy time for you; rather, it's an important time. Saturn in your sign is forcing you to grow up and define yourself more clearly, while deep, dark Pluto in your cognition zone fills your mind with heavy, intense matters. But as planets in your joy sector make contact with Saturn and Pluto, you're reminded that love and happiness should inform your current process. As you individuate, relationships and creativity are prime means for expressing your authentic self. This week can reconnect you with your heart chakra, but it's up to you to open it. If you revisit an artistic project or love affair in your mind and find yourself wanting more, make sure to focus on your own empowerment instead of placing expectations on another person. Don't let the gravity of this period in your life drag you down. You can manifest something from the heart, so ask yourself what you want and what makes you happy.
November 22–December 21
You continue to focus on home and/or family this week, as the planets coalesce in your domestic angle, but you could run into trouble with miscommunication, since one of those planets is verbal Mercury—traveling retrograde at the moment. Another potential hiccup is Mercury's clash with excessive Jupiter in your one-on-one zone, upping the chances that you'll expect too much from a particular person. Try to keep impatience and exaggerated hopes in check. You're better off hunkering down and taking care of yourself. Concentrate on your own resources and strengthening your security through sheer willpower. There's a definite connection between your growing ability to release old baggage and close the book on something and your evolving self-esteem and relationship to money and stuff. Lying low and focusing on yourself can help you to make that connection.
December 22–January 19
Cerebral Mercury is retrograde in your cognition sector in the chimerical sign of Pisces, and four other planets are clustered there as well, so your mind is buzzing, but your mental state is quite subjective. And when Mercury conflicts with overblown Jupiter in your work sector, it's important to understand that you're probably holding colleagues or your job to an unreasonably high standard now. Realizing how much you want out of your current day-to-day routine could lead to disillusionment, but there's an opportunity here to think about what you most want to draw in to your life and to build a long-range plan that makes the most of your crescendoing feeling of empowerment. Review your network of contacts and your hopes for what's next, then explore the links between those and your deepening self-knowledge. Resolve to maintain integrity in your dealings with others and to only try to control your destiny, not people.
January 20–February 18
A financial issue crops up again this week, when backtracking Mercury in your money zone contacts several other planets. Be cautious about overindulging for pure pleasure, because your spending is likely to be out of proportion to reality now. Make an effort to sync up your self-worth and your fiscal approach with your dedication to your career. You're going through a period where you need to take your goals seriously and put yourself out there in the world as an authority. But there's a tricky connection to be made between taking your rightful place in the professional arena and the dark unconscious stuff you're dealing with—or possibly not dealing with. Feeling like you've earned a certain amount of public status hinges on coming to terms with your drive for power and accepting that you're changing on a very deep level from within.

SECRETARY: No further proposals.
PRESIDENT EGAN: If there are no further proposals, is there anything else to come before the Convention? Mr. Riley.
RILEY: Mr. President, as a special order of business last Wednesday Mr. Sundborg proposed a motion that would operate to modify Rule 50 as adopted earlier in the session, and that motion was in turn referred for a recommendation to the Rules Committee. Now properly this report should be in two parts, but I will ask the indulgence of the Convention to state the whole proposition in view of the fact that the latter part of our report may bear on the Convention action. The motion which was referred to the Committee for recommendation has received an adverse recommendation. The Committee does not endorse it for adoption. On the other hand,the Committee has determined that Rule 50 could be clarified, its language could be improved, and it does submit for the consideration and adoption of the Convention a redraft of Rule 50. That redraft, it should be clearly stated, does not reflect the terms of Mr. Sundborg's motion which was specifically referred to us. On each desk is a copy of the proposed redraft and any action of course on that would have to await action on the motion which was referred to us.
PRESIDENT EGAN: The question before us at this time is on the motion that was previously made by Mr. Sundborg. Will the Chief Clerk read the motion please?
CHIEF CLERK: "That the rules be amended as follows: In Rule 50, line 2. after the word 'thereon' insert the following: 'any article, other appropriate subdivision or group of articles or subdivisions may be returned to second reading for specific amendment by a vote of at least 28 members. After final action on all portions of the constitution separately.'"
PRESIDENT EGAN: What is the wish of the Convention as regards Mr. Sundborg's original motion? The question is, "Shall Mr. Sundborg's motion be adopted?"
UNIDENTIFIED DELEGATE: Question.
PRESIDENT EGAN: All those in favor say "aye" -- Mr. Davis?
DAVIS: Mr. President, I think it will take a two-thirds vote since it is a change in the rules. I think it will have to be a roll call vote.
PRESIDENT EGAN: That is right. The Chief Clerk will call the roll.
(The Chief Clerk called the roll with the following result:
Ayes: 4 - Buckalew, Collins, Kilcher, Sundborg.
Nays: 50 - Armstrong, Awes, Barr, Boswell, Coghill,
Cooper, Cross, Davis, Emberg, H. Fischer, V.
Fischer, Gray, Harris, Hellenthal, Hermann,
Hilscher, Hinckel, Hurley, Johnson, King,

Peratrovich, Poulsen, Reader, Riley, R.
Rivers, V. Rivers, Robertson, Rosswog, Smith,
Stewart, Sweeney, Taylor, VanderLeest, Walsh,
White, Wien, Mr. President.
Absent: 1 - Doogan.)
BUCKALEW: Mr. President, can I change my vote from "no" to "yes".
PRESIDENT EGAN: You Mr. Buckalew. Your vote will be changed from "no" to "yes". Mr. Smith?
SMITH: Mr. President, I move --
PRESIDENT EGAN: The roll has not been announced.
CHIEF CLERK: Four ayes and 50 nays and one absent.
PRESIDENT EGAN: And so the motion as proposed by Mr. Sundborg
SMITH: Mr. President, does that leave us in position where the rules stand as they were before this motion was made?
PRESIDENT EGAN: That is right.
SMITH: Then this suggested redraft would be an additional amendment? I will make a motion that the suggested redraft be adopted, although I believe that possibly it would have to call for suspension of the rules again, is that correct?
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. Smith moves that the suggested redraft of the Rules Committee as relating to Rule 50 be adopted by the Convention. Is there a second?
TAYLOR: I second it.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. Taylor seconds the motion. The subject is open for debate.
R. RIVERS: Mr. President, I think the Secretary should just read it even though we have it before us and then I will ask for unanimous consent.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Will the Chief Clerk read the proposed redraft?
CHIEF CLERK: "Rule 50. After all proposals which are to be included in the Constitution have been agreed upon the Convention shall refer them to the Committee on Style and Drafting for final arrangement in proper order and form.
When the Committee submits the Constitution in proposed final form for adoption, any part of the document may, by an affirmative vote of at least 37 delegates, be opened for specific amendment by reversion to second reading. Should the proposed document be amended it shall again be referred to the Committee on Style and Drafting. After the report of the Committee, the Constitution in final form shall be adopted by the Convention by the affirmative vote of at least 28 delegates."
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. Sundborg.
SUNDBORG: Mr. President, so that our record may be clear on this, I wonder if I may have the indulgence of those who have put the motion, to rephrase it in this way. I move that we strike Rule 50 as it now appears in the rules and in lieu thereof insert the following, and then the text of what has been read by the Chief Clerk.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. Smith, would you. object?
SMITH: No objection.
HERMANN: I would like to ask unanimous consent to put a comma after the word "upon" in the second sentence.
PRESIDENT EGAN: If there is no objection then Mr. Smith's original motion will be worded to state that Rule 50 as it now appears in the permanent rules be deleted and that the suggested redraft as proposed by the Rules Committee of Rule 50 be inserted to take its place. Unanimous consent has been asked that the suggested redraft contain a comma after the word "upon" in the second sentence. The question is open for discussion. If there is no discussion, the Chief Clerk -- Mr. Kilcher?
KILCHER: I think the point of clarification on this subject and for the record some remarks pertaining to the change would be in place. I would like my fellow delegates to observe that in essence Rule 50 has not been changed. The wording in some respects is clearer now, as the first sentence indicates, we don't deal in the first sentence any more with a framed constitution but with an amount of separate proposals. But the 37 votes, the majority of 37 votes required, to amend any of the separate proposals is in essence the same thing as we had before. Here it is spelled more explicitly, but actually this 37-vote majority is the normal majority required to suspend rules, so in essence the situation is the same as it was a week ago. Actually, I do not see why we should go through the motions of adopting this new redraft of Rule 50 unless we also go into a further matter for the record's sake as to the essence of Rule 50, which I last week have tried to change. If I am correct, my objective last week in bringing up this matter was mainly to have the separate proposals considered separate, to make them subject to a straight majority amendability if the need arises, if there should be a substantive conflict, etc. Now there seems to be a possibility to reach the very same objective in another manner through the act of rescinding. Now, if I am wrong, I would like to be corrected. If I understand correctly, any change in a proposal at any time could be effected by reverting to rescinding, and rescinding with given notice would only require a straight majority vote, so actually the objective that I was trying to reach last week can be reached within the rules themselves as they were all along.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Is there further discussion? Mr. McLaughlin?
MCLAUGHLIN: I move the previous question.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. McLaughlin moves the previous question. Is there a second?
BUCKALEW: I second it.
PRESIDENT EGAN: It has been moved and seconded that the previous question be ordered.
TAYLOR: I ask unanimous consent.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. Taylor asks unanimous consent that the previous question be ordered.
SUNDBORG: I object.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Objection is heard. All in favor of moving the previous question will say "aye", all opposed, "no". The ayes have it. The previous question is ordered. The question is, "Shall the suggested redraft of Rule 50 take its place in the permanent rules in lieu of the present Rule 50 of our permanent rules?" The Chief Clerk will call the roll.
(The Chief Clerk called the roll with the following result:
Ayes: 47 - Armstrong, Awes, Barr, Boswell, Buckalew,
Coghill, Collins, Cooper, Cross, Davis,
Emberg, H. Fischer, Gray, Hellenthal,
Hilscher, Hinckel, Hurley, Johnson, Kilcher,
King, Knight, Laws, Lee, Londborg,
McLaughlin, Marston, Nerland, Nolan, Nordale,
Peratrovich, Poulsen, Reader, Riley, R.
Rivers, V. Rivers, Robertson, Rosswog, Smith,
Stewart, Sundborg, Sweeney, Taylor,
VanderLeest, Walsh, White, Wien, Mr.
Nays: 7 - V. Fischer, Harris, Hermann, McCutcheon,
McNealy, McNees, Metcalf.
Absent: 1 - Doogan.
CHIEF CLERK: Forty-seven ayes, seven nays, and one absent.
PRESIDENT EGAN: And so the suggested redraft of Rule No. 50 as proposed by the Rules Committee has become a permanent part of the rules. Mr. Sundborg?
SUNDBORG: I move and ask unanimous consent that purely in the interest of uniform form that the new Rule 50, when it is typed into our rules, be typed all in one paragraph and not be broken down into two as it is in the draft which is before us. That would be uniform with the rules which we already have. There are no two-paragraph rules any place else.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Is there objection to Mr. Sundborg's unanimous consent request? If there is no objection the Secretary is ordered to draft Rule 50 as if it were one paragraph. Is there further business to come before the Convention? Mr. Smith?
SMITH: Mr. President, I would like to ask unanimous consent to revert to committee reports.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. Smith asks unanimous consent to revert to committee reports. If there is no objection you may proceed, Mr. Smith.
SMITH: The Committee on Resources would like to request the services of Ernest R. Bartley and Vincent Ostrom, and I think it would be pertinent to ask the Secretary to make a statement on the qualifications of these men at the appropriate time.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Then you have heard the request of the Chairman of the Committee on Resources. He requests the services of Ernest R. Bartley and Vincent Ostrom for aid in the research work that is necessary in the Committee on Resources. The request will be taken under advisement by the President and the Secretary of the Convention, if that is the wish of the Convention. Mr. Hellenthal.
HELLENTHAL: Mr. President, Committee No. VI on the Elections, Suffrage and Apportionment will hold what may be the first of a series of public hearings at 11 o'clock Saturday morning, next Saturday, and we ask that the delegates take note of that and that appropriate publicity be given of the fact through the office of the Secretary.
PRESIDENT EGAN: You have heard the announcement of the Chairman of Committee No. VI. The hearing will be in Convention Hall in this room. The public hearing that Mr. Hellenthal is speaking of.
HELLENTHAL: No, Mr. President, it was our intention that the Committee hearing be held in the regular meeting place, and should sufficient people appear there it will be recessed to a larger meeting place if the need develops.
TAYLOR: Just for a point of information, I would like to ask what particular matter would be brought up at this time?
HELLENTHAL: Any matters pertinent to the jurisdiction of the committee.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Public notice will be given. Miss Awes?
AWES: Committee No. V, the Committee on Bill of Rights will also hold a public hearing on Saturday and it is scheduled for 9:30 in the regular committee room. Also, the Committee will not meet tomorrow but again Wednesday at the regular time.
PRESIDENT EGAN: You have heard the announcement of Miss Awes. Mr. Sundborg?
SUNDBORG: Committee No. III on Style and Drafting would like to request that the services of Mr. Jack McKay be requested for the duration of the Convention and specifically that the Legislative Council be asked to assign Mr. McKay here with the Legislative Council to bear his salary but the Convention to pay his per diem.
PRESIDENT EGAN: You have heard the request of Mr. Sundborg. If there is no objection the President and the Secretary will ask that Mr. McKay be assigned here for the duration of the Convention. Mr. McNees?
MCNEES: May I ask if that was for the use of the Convention at large?
SUNDBORG: Yes. We know we will want him to some extent for the Committee on Style and Drafting, but our thought was that we don't need him just yet and do not know just yet and we don't know yet until the substantive committees begin to get further along with their proposals, when we will need him, but we think the whole Convention should have the advantage and use of his services.
PRESIDENT EGAN: If there is no objection the Legislative Council will be notified at the request of the Convention to have Mr. McKay here. Mr. Robertson?
ROBERTSON: Mr. President, I have a question to ask along the subject I was discussing with you this noon. Possibly Mr. Riley of the Rules Committee could tell me. What is the procedure if the proponent of a proposal desires to propose an amendment to the proposal other than to bring it simply before the committee itself so that it would come to the attention of all members that proposed amendments?
PRESIDENT EGAN: It would seem to the Chair that you would have to go before the committee, but, Mr. Riley, as Chairman of the Rules Committee, have you taken that particular question into consideration?
RILEY: Mr. President, I don't believe it has arisen any time up to now, certainly not in any committee meetings I have recalled. It would seem one possible solution would be to simply put in another proposal on the same general subject matter which in turn would get it before the same committee which is considering the earlier basic proposal.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. Taylor.
TAYLOR: I have an idea along that line. I think it was used in the legislature for many years. It is the fact that the bill is in committee now, in the Judiciary Committee. The fact that it is in there, the committee can amend that bill
posal and call a committee substitute for Mr. Robertson's
proposal. I think it can be left up to the committee to take
care of those particular --
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mrs. Hermann.
HERMANN: Mr. Chairman, is there any reason why the author of
a proposal cannot amend it himself in second reading after it
comes out on the floor?
PRESIDENT EGAN: There is no reason why he could not attempt
to do so Mrs. Hermann. There is also no reason, the Chair
would feel, why the maker of the proposal might not ask unanimous consent or move to have the proposal withdrawn. Is
there further discussion? Mr. Secretary do you have something?
The Secretary states that the Committee on Administration has
completed its arrangements for having new chairs and tables
for the delegates' pleasure here in Convention Hall and that
they plan to make this change immediately following the adjournment this afternoon, and if the delegates are around and wish to choose their various seats they are welcome to do so after the change has been made. Mr. Ralph Rivers.
R. RIVERS: Mr. President, the Judiciary Committee is going to meet at the TV station at 4 o'clock today, and I thought perhaps Mr. McLaughlin, our Chairman, would like to tell about transportation or such.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Would you like to comment, Mr. McLaughlin?
MCLAUGHLIN: There will be a rump session of the Committee on
the Judiciary immediately after the adjournment of this session. Transportation is available to members of the Committee if
anyone desires to go downtown immediately.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. McLaughlin, you will appear on Channel 11
at 4 p.m.? Mr. Nerland, did you bring out that TV set?
NERLAND: Yes, it is all set up upstairs.
PRESIDENT EGAN: If any delegates who are still here wish to
view the Committee on the Judiciary on television beginning
at 4 o'clock this afternoon, Mr. Nerland has been kind enough
to bring a television set out for the delegates. Mr. Coghill?
COGHILL: It might be well to point out that the Committee on
Convention Administration made the proposal in their first
report for the chairs and tables, and it was the wish of this
Committee to have it brought before the floor as to whether
they want the chairs and table arrangement placed in the Con-
vention Hall this afternoon. I don't believe that was followed through after your announcement.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. Coghill, the Chair has stated to the members it was going to be done. The Chair did not hear any objection. The Chair would feel the Convention delegates are practically unanimous in their feeling for that change. Is there anything further to come before the Convention at this time? Mr. Sundborg?
SUNDBORG: I notice that some new equipment has appeared before us today, the soundscribing equipment. I take it this is the permanent equipment for which we arranged. I notice too, that Mr. Carozza of the company that installed the equipment at our request, is here. I wonder if we might request that he explain to us just how it works and what he would like us to do when speaking if we're not doing it right and subjects of that kind?
PRESIDENT EGAN: You have heard the request of Mr. Sundborg. Is there objection? Mr. McNealy?
MCNEALY: I would move that we revert to a Committee of the Whole for the purpose of hearing Mr. Carozza.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. McNealy asks unanimous consent that we revert to a Committee of the Whole for the purpose of hearing Mr. Carozza explain the ramifications of the new equipment. Is there objection? Hearing no objection then the Convention will resolve itself into a Committee as a Whole. Mr. McNees?
MCNEES: I would like to make one comment here today. Day after day in this afternoon session we are losing an important portion of our own committee time due to the fact that we must adjourn on schedule so that they can go into an additional committee.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Is there objection to resolving the Convention into a Committee of the Whole for the purpose of hearing Mr. Carozza? If there is no objection the Committee is resolved to a Committee of the Whole. Mr. Hilscher, will you take the Chair please?
(At this time the Committee of the Whole met. Mr. Hilscher presided.)
PRESIDENT EGAN: The Convention will come to order. Mr. Kilcher.
KILCHER: Unless it is entirely out of order or unless the Committee on Style and Drafting or somebody else has objection, I would make a suggestion to the Chair, as in the case of the Mr. Rivers, and with Mr. Hilscher, that we all four be called by our first names. If I am not wrong, the Chair awhile ago has called Mr. Kilcher, "Mr. Hilscher .
PRESIDENT EGAN: Hereafter the Chair will call Mr. Hilscher and Mr. Kilcher by their first names also. Mr. Hellenthal?
HELLENTHAL: I move we adjourn until the regular time tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock.
PRESIDENT EGAN: Mr. Hellenthal asks unanimous consent that the Convention stand adjourned until 9 a.m. tomorrow morning. Is there objection? Mr. McNealy?
MCNEALY: Mr. President, I would like to announce immediately after recess Committee No. IV on Ordinances will meet.
PRESIDENT EGAN: The Convention will stand adjourned until 9 o'clock tomorrow morning.
