The most recent fiasco with Tiger Woods reminds me of some of my experiences with celebrity endorsers when I ran the marketing and corporate communications operation at Health Canada.
First a bit about Tiger. As Ken Gray points out in his recent piece in the Ottawa Citizen.
"Tiger Woods is probably the greatest athlete of our time. He even bridges ethnicity i.e. a black man with Asian roots who dominates the white middle-aged realm of the fairway. He is the Martin […]
During these tough economic times for public and non profit sector organizations the Centre of Excellence for Public Sector Marketing (CEPSM) has decided to offer a special consulting opportunity for those who require social marketing expertise but can not afford the prices of high priced consultants. We do this because our Centre is committed "To advance the marketing discipline in the public sector".
We are offering our 3-Step Social Marketing Consultation for under $5,000.
We are now offering both nonprofit […]
In my blog on municipal marketing I discussed the importance of marketing as an important function for governments , particularly cities. Clearly in an era in which governments need to be more responsive and accountable to the needs of the public, marketing can help governments accomplish this goal. With governments spending significant dollars delivering programs and services, especially in the area of tourism promotion there is a need for increased efficiency, accountability and transparency . With the managerial […]

And then I notice the untidy cable on the floor at the left (it was not easy to take my eye off the stunning deepbluwater).
That was bad enough, but then my eye is bent out of shape by the converging perspective of the brickwork on the right.
Just not good enough Mr V, what were you thinking?
If you are contemplating coming after me for that, we will be having an RB day out in my home town of South Queensferry, Scotland on Sunday 31st May. That will give you plenty of time to organise the flights – hehehe

Can O Corn Lyrics
Artist: Coolio
Album: It Takes A Thief
Back in the days when I was a young buck
Stuck like a truck gettin shit outta luck
Times was rough and I didn't have a plan
I was barely on the edge of my life as a man
It's really fucked up when there's dope in the crib
No food in the kitchen for the motherfuckin kids
That's why a young nigga learned how to steal see
Shopliftin laid me a whole lotta meals
But I remember days when the cupboard was bare and
Life was unfair but who the fuck cares?
I still hear Momma,what she used to tell me
That you don't get shit in this life for free
And even if I never ever make it to the mountain top
Fuck it!I fight for my hip-hop
Not everybody can relate to what I been through
Even though some front and they try to pretend to
Know about the life of a kid and the strife
Where he has to live in the shadow of a base-pipe
Good goes to bad,bad goes to worse
And pretty soon he's stealin from his own Momma's purse
So clean out ya ears and open up your eyes
I reach out to touch but somebody moved the sky
My stomach is growlin,word is born
Cos all I had for dinner was a can-o-corn
A can-o-corn,a can-o-corn
All I had for dinner was a can-o-corn
A can-o-corn,a can-o-corn
Before I went to school I had a can-o-corn
A can-o-corn,a can-o-corn
I tried to get full off a can-o-corn
A can-o-corn,a can-o-corn
That's all the fuck that we had in the kitchen
A few years later,I pledge a legions to the set
I'm growin up but I ain't grown yet
It's funny how the strain in a life filled with pain
Can sometimes leave a bitch stained on the brain
I'm sittin in the restaurant,guardin my food like a eagle
Pickin up scraps like a seagull
Waitin on the people at the next table to leave a tip
So I can put it in my pocket
Phoney Easter Bunny,Santa Claus and the stork
We was poor as fuck so we ate a lot of pork
And it ain't no motherfuckin way no how
When it come up I let you bring me down
So I stick to the boots and I'm down with a MAAD group
Of gangstas and hoodlums,but you can call em 'scroops'
Give me liberty or give me death
Cos a man without pride ain't got shit left,huh
And now that I'm older with kids of my own
I put me in the pot where it used to be a bone
Get'cha self together,word is born
Cos a man can't live on a can-o-corn

The Alps - A Bird's Eye View by Matev� Lenarčič and Janez Bizjak
No of Pages: 512
Page Size: 375 x 280
Publisher: PanAlp: www.panalp.net
Published Date: 2009
Cover: hardback
Illustrations: 200 double spread colour photos and 50 single page photos plus maps & drawings.
'This Slovenian biologist/mountaineer/aviator/visionary wants us to see the Alps as the birds do � not divided into eight countries or anyone's possession but a world of marvellous beauties...... Stephen Goodwin
On the south-western threshold of the Ecrins massif stands the Devoluy range, which is divided in a north-south direction by the valley with the Festre saddle, where there are some well-known ski centres on the northern slops of Pic de Bure. From The Alps - A Bird's Eye View by Matev� Lenarcic and Janez Bizjak .
For the last six years the Slovenian alpinist, photographer, and biologist Matev� Lenarčič flew solo in his Earth-friendly Pipistrel Sinus 912 Aircraft around the Alps taking aerial photographs.
The result is the most glorious celebration and documentation of the Alps in his 512-page large format and heavy book,The Alps - A Bird's Eye View, (it is 28cm wide, 37.5cm and weighs 4.95 kilos).
It quite rightly won the Best Book � Mountain Image at the 2009 Banff Mountain Book Festival, but hasn't had much exposure in the UK.
The 250 colour images (of which 200 are double page spreads) and all are captioned with name, altitude and country; location and altitude when photographing. All the well known peaks and ranges are included and are sub-divided into Southern, Western, Central, and Eastern Alp. These photographs will Wow you but there is much more, there are many maps and extensive essays on the natural history of the Alps written by expert authors: water, forests, flora, fauna; on how mankind has shaped the Alps, on conservation, tourism and thoughts on the future of the area.
The book has been compiled under the patronage of UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation) and includes forewords by the Director-General of UNESCO, Ko�chiro Matsuura, Sir Chris Bonington and Marco Onida, Secretary-General of the Alpine Convention. The book was designed by Ivana Kadivec and co-authored by Janez Bizjak
The pleasure this book will give is immense, the inspiration and motivation it will provide for great adventures is without doubt. It will change lives and hopefully have a positive influence of Europe's wild place.
This is a complete work, a work of genius and is essential for anyone with an interest in mountains. Congratulations to Matev� Lenarčič, Janez Bizjak and everyone involved in this complex project. At £55 it's a bargain.
VIDEO: The Alps A Bird's Eye View: an interview with Matev� Lenarčič by Schweizer Fernsehe
Although in German by the Swiss website of Schweizer Fernsehens this 7 minute video interviews Matev� Lenarčič (he speaks in English), shows him flying and photographing in his Pipistrel Sinus 912 and leafing through this important book
ANOTHER VIDEO: Slovene national TV made a film about Matev� Lenarčič's aerial photography. It is in the Slovene language and is quite beautiful, but at 25 minutes long better if you watch if you have the book to gain more understanding of the project. http://tvslo.si
The Alps - A Bird's Eye View is available from Cordee and Outside.
click on the images to enlarge
Matev� has shared with UKClimbing.com a selection of images from The Alps A Bird's Eye View, they are below with the extended captions from the book. Below these is some biographical information about Matev� Lenarčič.
Apart from the Mediterranean, the Alps are Europe's biggest ecosystem.
Marmolada's south face is a long, rugged, 800-metre-high barrier with very demanding climbing routes. This view from the south-west, above the ski centre of San Martinno di Castrozza and the surrounding ski slopes with lifts on the Rolle pass, also reveals the mighty face of Cimon della Pala.
The highest mountain and the symbol of Austria lies in the Hohe Tauern and the national park of the same name. The summit was first reached by local climbers from Heiligenblut in 1800. The Pasterze Glacier below the north-east faces is typical of rapidly melting ice and glacial retreat caused by climate change.
The Alps are a strategic European treasury of drinking water.
This marvelous mountain in the Julian Alps above the Soca/Isonzo valley symbolises the most tragic part of the history of the Alps. During the years 1915 - 1917 a succession of battles were waged on these high ridges between the Austro-Hungarian and Italian armies, bringing death to several hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
Over the past 150 years, we have lost about half of the Alpine ice cover.
Zugspitze is Germany's highest peak, situated on the German-Austrian border in the region of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, from where the mountain railway Zugspitzbahn leads to the summit. There are also two gondolas reaching the top of the mountain; one from the German lake Eibsee and the other is the Austrian Tiroler Zugspitzbahn.
The important requirement for the future of the Alps is development in harmony with nature, emphasising the principle that "less is more".
Passeierspitze, the �king of the Lechtal Alps�, is also the highest peak in the Northern Limestone Alps. Only 7 km east of the summit, the town of Landeck lies in the Inn valley. Passeierspitze was first climbed by the rope-team Specht-Siess in 1869.
The Maritime Alps Nature Park is the largest park in Piedmont. Some of its summits exceed 3000 m, the highest being Dell' Argentera, and the most southerly Alpine glaciers are situated here. The park, which is connected with the Mercantour National Park in France, has over 80 glacial lakes and rich flora and fauna.

For aerial photography I generally fly my light high-wing motorglider Sinus 912. The aircraft is modified for aerial work. Its speed range, between 60 and 240 km/h, is very suitable for such work. The Sinus can climb 600 m/s up to 6000 m without a turbo charger. The aircraft is almost inaudible, so it doesn't disturb fragile ecosytems.
In aerial work things are going fast. If you miss the shot, there is no second chance. It is impossible to repeat something you once fail. This is why I use only high-tech Nikon digital cameras and lenses.

An individual molecule of water can spend 200,000 years undisturbed in an icesheet in Antartica whereas in the ocean it may spend some 40,000 years. The same molecule can manage 1000 years in an underground reservoir, 10 years in a lake,10 days in the atmosphere. The same molecule in an animal's body will endure only around 10 hours. With such a variation for the same molecule depending on the state it finds itself we may apply our own case to the concept of Time. Man as terrestrial being may have life span of 80 years or about. As spiritual beings it may have another cycle. What comes after that is beyond any man's guess.
Time is in short distorted for all corporeal beings.
God is defined as eternal being and omnipresent. If God is a reality, a molecule of water in a great icesheet in Antartica is no different than one in a human body.
In my case I believe God is part and parcel of my being since I mark time. 'The Kingdom of God is within you'.
Is God Out There?

Gobble till you Wobble...Thanksgiving Tablescape
Thanksgiving for me growing up always represented food, family and thanking God.
9 comments:
Beautiful table, Karen! I love your turkey plates. In previous years, we've always done a turkey and my kids have grown up with a traditional Thanksgiving. When they were younger, after dinner, we would go see a movie. The theaters were practically empty and it was a tradition we started as a family. Last year my daughter started hosting for the first time, especially since we both moved from NY to Ohio and she now has my dining room table. : ) We had lasagna and I brought ham ~ no turkey because her husband doesn't care for it. Although, this year he had said to her that maybe they will do a small turkey.
ReplyDeleteWhat a warm, inviting and absolutely beautiful table, Karen! When I think of Thanksgiving, this is exactly what comes to mind. I love all the natural elements you included and the double runner!!! The soft chocolate ribbon around the sheaf of wheat is so pretty, too! It must be great living in the South where the weather is still tolerable enough or grilling in November! We'd be chased inside as soon as we open the door here in the Kansas City, MO area!!! :-) I love the idea of creating new traditions that make the holiday your very own. That's the way it should be, right? A little from the past, a little from the present, a little from his side, a little from yours...it's what makes it all so special. Thanksgiving is "my holiday", and I love to spend the time cooking and preparing for family to enjoy the day. My Mom has always made excellent dressing (that's what our family calls it, too!), and I am learning to perfect her recipe. My sister does great yeast rolls, and I am the master of the gobbler. My husband is not allowed anywhere near the kitchen except to steal morsels! :-) Thank you for stopping by to see my Halloween set-up. My house is already transformed to Christmas as I teach my tablescaping classes here. I can't wait to get it back to autumn mode for Thanksgiving Day! Have a great week!!!
ReplyDeleteYour table is lovely, Karen. I loved hearing the story of how you and your husband have created Thanksgiving traditions for your family. I am the host for the Thanksgiving meal in my family and I am under strict orders to never change the menu! Funny how even our adult children take so much comfort in traditions that they grew up with.
ReplyDeleteHi Karen,
Your Thanksgiving table is just beautiful and I really love those turkey plates. Would you just pack them up and send them to me? Just kidding. I love reading about other people's traditions. How wonderful that you've been able to blend your husband's traditions with your own. We do not cook turkey for Thanksgiving because my husband is allergic to all fowl. Yes, I know, it's weird. So I usually cook a fresh ham or a pork roast. Even the dressing has to be made with pork drippings rather than turkey. I don't know if you remember, but we met at the SBC and I'm just now getting around to visiting. My sister-in-law has visited but she never comments. Hope you are having a good weekend.Oh, your Thanksgiving table is gorgeous!! I want a table setting with the turkey pattern so badly. We do Thanksgiving in the mountains. I prepare all of our food and bring it with us, and we have the traditional Southern Thanksgiving meal. I am actually sitting in the camper, on black Friday, enjoying blogland instead of fighting the gosh-awful crowds up here. Not sure how I ended up here, but so glad I found your beautiful blog.
ReplyDeleteThis is the first year we didn't host Thanksgiving. We have been married for 45 years too!!! Our daughter and SIL hosted but I was called upon to do the mashed potatoes and the gravy! Our daughter and son LOVE my "stuffing" (that is what we call it here) but I deferred to her new hubby and it was also delicious. PLEASE tell me your source for your white dishes, I have been looking for those dishes FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XO, Pinky

This photo was taken on the fourth morning of my trek up Mount Kilimanjaro. I was so amazed by the rapid transition of ecological zones we had already traversed, starting our hike in dense tropical jungle and passing through forest zones to the tree line and entering the alpine grassland of the Shira Plateau at almost 14,000 feet before descending for a night in the surreal otherworldliness of the Barranco Valley. The strange plants like these Giant Groundsels loom over you like aliens against a backdrop of the great Barranco Wall, an 800 foot vertical climb that we all would have to make on this morning. Uhuru Peak, the summit of the mountain, would not be attainable for another two days and through two more climate zones. After climbing the wall, a stark landscape of volcanic eruption strewn giant boulders and scree await ahead of the final six hour summit mount passed arctic glaciers to the top. Experiencing such ecological diversity in one place was immensely awe inspiring.
Ever since I started participating in these photo challenges, I've been looking forward to them each week. They really make me think about my photos in a different light and to revisit ones long forgotten in order to reinterpret them again. This challenge was a difficult one since the number one rule of photography is not to shoot directly into the sun. And ruling out sunsets make it even more challenging. This shot is probably one of the only times I've ever framed a shot pointing directly at the sun, but I really wanted to show the translucence of the leaves as well as include the summit peak in the back ground.

Thanks. I'm looking forward to this week's challenge.
Thank you Amar.
Sounds like it was a fantastic hike.
It really was. And I'm glad that I took the longer route to have more time to acclimatize to the altitude.
Beautiful shot!
Thanks! Makes me want to risk pointing into the sun more.
Like you I enjoy the Friday challenge and like you it's fun to revisit my photos looking for one tha fits. This is a beautiful capture.
Thanks for visiting. I wonder what they'll throw at us next week?
Awesome Tanzania 😛
Thank you Madhu! This was a hard one.
Thank you! I'm glad you like it.
This is probably the third challenge I've looked at that makes me wish I were a better painter. You captured this shot brilliantly.
Thanks! I wish I could paint at all but I'm trying to be more creative.
Thanks! What's the technical requirement when shooting into the sun anyway? Filter?

Internationally Acclaimed Canadian Artist
In the pages that follow, the reader will embark on a journey into the life and art of Helen Lucas. Her prolific career, spanning over five decades, has produced deeply personal insights into her life – from the sombre figures of the early years, to icons, mischievous angels, doves and publications of her books – each spiritually linked to the last.
And then, there are the flowers. To the many already familiar with Helen Lucas' paintings, you'll be anticipating the burst of life and colour she brings to the canvas. To those who have yet to learn about this remarkable artist and the special gift she possesses, you will easily come to understand how Helen Lucas has arrived today as one of Canada's most loved and distinguished floral artists. Enjoy.
Miss Lucas has too rich a talent to dismiss lightly. She brings to her art an unabashed personal feeling that is all too rare in Canadian Art.
-Paul Duval, Toronto Telegram 1962
Helen Lucas has been producing a series of remarkable drawings, unique in the history of art… They are immediate, spontaneous, quickly executed, in which the crayon is linked to the soul.
-Sol Littman, Toronto Star 1974
Her acrylics and pastel drawings are linked to Georgia O'Keefe's flower paintings, but they do not share O'Keefe's austere and monumental vision. The Lucas works are warm-blooded and, despite their size, approachable.
-Nancy Beale, The Ottawa Citizen 1984
Helen's flowers aren't really flowers. They're people, looking at you, talking to you, dancing and singing to you. They're a presence that looks right at you.
-Helen Lucas' Montreal Dealer,Jacques Bellefeuille, Galerie de Bellefeuille, Montreal 1986
20 dramatically colourful acrylic paintings of larger-than-life flowers…that attest to the light and joy and laughing….
-Alison Appelbe, Vancouver Courier 1989
The flower paintings say something about life, your own life, and your feeling about life in general. The proclamation of joy in the midst of our frightening world will not be missed by anyone with eyes to see and a heart to understand.

South African Autos Strike Set to Intensify as Workers March
Kamlesh Bhuckory and Amogelang MbathaSouth African carworkers are demanding a double-digit wage increase for three years and will intensify a two-week-long strike if their demands aren't met, the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa said.
Numsa last met employers to discuss wage increases for its members on Aug. 29, national treasurer Mphumzi Maqungo said in an interview at a protest march today in Pretoria, the capital. The union wants to restart negotiations and resolve the strike, he said. "We are hoping that employers come back with a better offer before" Sept. 5., he said.
About 30,000 workers at plants owned by companies including Toyota Motor Corp., Volkswagen AG, and Ford Motor Co. have been on strike since Aug. 19, costing the industry as much as 700 million rand ($68.2 million) a day, according to the National Association of Automobile Manufacturers of South Africa. At least 500 workers marched toward the Naamsa headquarters in Pretoria, carrying signs bearing slogans such as "equal pay" and singing songs demanding better wages.
About 90,000 construction workers have also downed tools and gold miners are due to walk out later today as wage negotiations deadlock across Africa's biggest economy. Work stoppages have already shaved 30 basis points, or 0.3 percentage point, off gross domestic product this year, President Jacob Zuma said on June 13.
Various Benefits
Numsa wants a wage increase of at least 10 percent for three years as well as various benefits including better medical aid and shift flexibility, the union said in a letter of demands handed to reporters. Employers have agreed to 13 of 24 requests and are continuing to talk to labor representatives, according to Automobile Manufacturers Organization Chairman Thapelo Molapo.
"I don't see the strike continuing beyond this week," Molapo said in an interview.
Employers proposed an offer that included a 10 percent annual pay rise for three years that was rejected last month, Numsa's Maqungo said by phone on Aug 26. The union has asked the companies for improvements, Numsa Secretary General Irvin Jim said on Aug. 30. The proposal compares with South African inflation of 6.3 percent in July, the first time it had exceeded the central bank's 3 percent to 6 percent target range in 15 months.
Bonus Same
"It's unfair," said Mawatle Moeng, 54, who was taking part in the Numsa march. "My yearly bonus has been the same since 1999." Moeng works at the BMW plant adding seatbelts to cars that sell for 350,000 rand, he said. "They can't even give us a 14 percent increase."
Companies and workers must find a solution to strikes that are "not helpful" to the country, Zuma told reporters in Pretoria today. South Africa has been plagued by labor action for more than a year, hurting economic growth and weakening the rand, which is down 18 percent against the dollar this year, the worst performer of 16 major currencies tracked by Bloomberg. The rand weakened 0.3 percent to 10.3182 per dollar by 4:11 p.m. in Johannesburg.
South African car exports were down 23 percent in August due to the industry strike, Naamsa Executive Manager Norman Lamprecht said in an interview. Vehicle sales in the country dropped 0.3 percent unexpectedly in August, the first decline since March, Naamsa said yesterday.

But It's a Collectors Item!
7 comments:
I'm slowly learning not to keep stuff to sell. Either I won't end up selling it, or the trouble I'll have to go through to sell it won't be worth what I'll make! Just got rid of a bunch of computer peripherals that I swore I'd sell, and yet a year later I still had them! Nice going getting rid of the videos.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, the old "it may be worth something" ploy! I actually used to make part of my living selling used books online. This was in the days before smartphones, which meant I couldn't look up the value of anything before I bought it, so I'd basically just go to rummage sales about 10 minutes before they closed, and they were generally really happy to take some paltry sum of money if I'd take all of the books off their hands.
And the curious thing was that anything that was popular or written by a well known person wasn't worth the paper it was printed on. The market was just too flooded with them to have any value. The really valuable ones were off the wall out of print stuff. I admit I still have a box or two of things "waiting to sell" but the truth is unless you can sell it for at least $25-$30, it just isn't worth the time and hassle.I'm hit and miss when it comes to selling things. I do hold on to things that seem like "collectibles" but when I look for similar things on ebay, these do not sell or sell for very little. I guess it's time I just donate or dump!
ReplyDeleteI go through these phases where I try and sell stuff or I just donate items I know I could make a fair amount of cash on. I've gotten to the point where I just donate most of it. In a way I'm getting paid because I can claim it on my taxes. So win-win?

Nelson is restless
For now, I'm going to keep an eye on him. If he goes somewhere I want to know where, and who he's with, or at least that he's with someone who will make sure he is safe.
question: what's Nelson up to?

Oooh... a mystery. I like it.
Let me get this straight. Nelson is your pet rodent? You put it on the shelve and it will not move about?
You discovered a new account in your XP PC called Nelson too. Could it be one of your family members who could have created the account while you're away?
Interesting how it will turn out. - 4:55 AM
- mompoet said...
Thanks for checking in, Andrew and Imran. Nelson's a plastic rat (but don't tell him that). He used to be a Halloween decoration, but now he's a member of our family. He hitches rides to other places when we travel. The neighbours take him too. He just got back from Ireland a couple of weeks ago. As for the computer, I think he's capable. He has shows signs of techno-savvy previously (he has his own digital camera and ipod, and he uses an ATM card.

Nelson gets out much more than I do. I've never had Rat envy before...do I need therapy?

Unemployment Increases in Swing States Says Hudson Chief Economist Tim Kane
Nov 02, 2012, 11:41 ET from Hudson Institute
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Hudson Institute Chief Economist Tim Kane is available to comment on U.S. employment numbers and his recent analysis of unemployment in the swing states.
Kane says:
"If voters in the swing states ask themselves if they are better off than they were four years ago, the answer will be no. Comparing official data in 2008 to September 2012 (the latest data available), we see the unemployment rate has increased in every one of the nine most hotly contested swing states. Ohio saw its unemployment rate rise by half a percentage point from 6.5% in 2008 to 7.0% today, but Nevada suffered more than anywhere with its level rising from 7.0% in 2008 to 11.8% today.

"If President Obama loses the election next Tuesday, he has nothing but his economic policies to blame. In early 2009, Obama's top economists promised that the unemployment would come down nationally to 5.5 percent by the end of his first term if Congress would enact the stimulus package. Despite Republican warnings, a hyper-partisan vote in Congress with Democratic majorities in both chambers did pass the stimulus. The result has been a jobless recovery, with unemployment rates two-and-a-half full points higher than promised, which doesn't include the millions of discouraged Americans who have stopped looking for jobs and so are not officially counted as unemployed."
Tim Kane often provides analysis on major television networks and radio outlets. He is a graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy with a Ph.D. in economics from the University of California, San Diego. He is co-authoring a book (with Glenn Hubbard) entitled, Balance: Why Great Powers Lose It and How America Can Regain It, forthcoming from Simon & Schuster in early 2013.

text: 12. Your alternator is what keeps the voltage up above 12 volts. Batteries usually rest around the mid to high 12 volt range. Once your pulling more current than your alternator puts out the voltage drops. But you still need extra batteries, even with HO alternators. Alternators dont put out max current at all times. The more amps you draw, the more they put out until they hit their max. So if you had a HO alternator with just a stock battery, and pulled more than the alternator put out, you would have a huge voltage drop. Also batteries act as a buffer for your amps. Say you hit a hard sudden bass note, your alternator wasn't puttin out much before the note an now all of a sudden it needs to put out more. The extra batteries will keep the voltage from dropping as fast and as far

With Kerry's appointment of John Edwards as his running mate, there has been renewed attention, and criticism, directed at trial lawyers and especially at lawyers who help bring personal injury law suits and other so-called "frivolous" law suits. I'll let Law Talking Guy speak to the technical definition of a frivolous law suit. My area expertise is more in line with the institutions and practices of regulatory policy. In today's posting I intend to explain the important role that trial lawyers, especially personal injury lawyers, play in the American regulatory system. It has long been a pet peeve of mine that people accept attacks on trial lawyers on face value as if such attacks were limited in scope to the lawyers themselves. But trial lawyers and law suits against misbehaving corporations are crucial to the smooth functioning of a well regulated capitalist democracy based on the rule of law.
It is one of the great misconceptions in the common political discourse that capitalism depends on the absence of regulation. All capitalist democracies regulate the behavior of individuals and corporations. Dumping of toxic waste, reckless driving, the sale of dangerous and defective products, paying prices and delivering goods and services agreed to in contracts, the maintenance of safe working conditions, and other activities are regulated in all capitalist democracies. Indeed, if such things were not regulated at all, capitalism would eventually break down, degenerating into the kind of cleptocracies common developing countries.
How are such regulations enforced? In some countries, officers of the state monitor business activities in a constant search for misbehavior. But this approach is costly and invasive. Employing large numbers of inspectors costs enormous sums of money. Law abiding business people resent being constantly inspected. To alleviate some of these costs and to reduce the need for constant monitoring, many democracies replace a system that depends on finding every potential problem with a system that responds to complaints. In the American system, those complaints run through the judicial system in the form of law suits.
Such law suits serve several functions. First, they provide a consistent procedure to determine if there has been any violation of regulations, laws or contracts. Second, if a violation has taken place, law suits provide a means for compensating those who were wronged. Third, law suits impose penalties – in may cases the only penalties – on the corporation or person who violated the law, regulation or contract.
During the 1980s and 1990s conservative majorities (remember in the 1980s Southern conservatives were still nominally Democrats) in Congress pushed through a series of reductions in regulatory protection and enforcement. These changes have meant that law suits are an increasingly important part of regulatory policy in the United States. In essence law suits have become a kind of market based regulatory system. If people care enough to sue, it goes through the court, but minor transgressions that harm few people go unpunished. The debate now is how easy should it be to sue? If the barrier is raised too high, serious violations of important regulations will go undetected and unpunished.
Because of the vital role law suits play in ensuring a well regulated capitalist system, making it harder to sue misbehaving corporations has the effect of protecting those corporations from taking responsibility for their actions. In short, attacks on trial lawyers are little more than a cynical political strategy for placing large corporations beyond the rule of law.

In Defense of Trial Lawyers
Posted by Raised By Republicans at 2:50 PM
4 comments:
- The Law Talking Guy said...
The theory that citizens can act as "private attorneys general" to enforce basic legal norms is probably the best expression of how we use our system, and also the most problematic. It is an expensive, cumbersome, and often arbitrary system with many negative externalities. To begin with, the law is essentially barred to plaintiffs who either (a) lack approx. $100,000 for a short trial, or (b) have too small an amount at stake (approx. $200,000 or less) to warrant contingency work. Next, the law may go unenforced for years until a plaintiff arises who is willing to take on the challenge. Furthermore, it is a long and cumbersome process. Finally, it has an odd lottery-like aspect. The winning plaintiff and his attorney may get millions, future harm is deterred, but other past harm is not compensated.
In an era, however, when the government simply will not pay for sufficient public enforcement, this will have to do. The tragedy is "tort reform" that is not accompanied by dramatic increases in public enforcement budgets. - 4:13 PM
- US West said...
Government has a responsibility to protect citizens. That is partly why we pay taxes. The problem with deregulation is that it forces those citizens who can to protect themselves. And it shifts the burden of expense onto the shoulders of the average, working person. We still pay the costs. We have to pay for the court system that determines these cases. We pay higher prices to the companies that are subject to suit. We pay higher fees for things like medical services because doctors have to meet the increasing rates of malpractice insurance. And, as LTG points out, many problems can do damage unabated for years. And no amount of money will make the victims "whole". So I say bring back the 40% tax bracket on the wealthiest Americans (the ones who own the business that are sued) and bring back the tax funded regulatory system.
Perhaps the worst effect is that we breed in society this attitude that lawsuit is the best revenge, which is, in my view, an abuse of the system. And it also breeds stupidity. When McDonalds has to warn people that coffee is too hot or that its food can make you fat, or Norelco has to tell us not to use our hairdryer in the shower, or the owner of a business has to fret because some customer slipped while coming in the door, there is a problem. In Carmel, there is an ordnance against wearing high heels on the sidewalks. Why? Because the sidewalks are cobblestone and brick in the downtown area, and the city has to protect itself if some woman twists her ankle.
So while I think there is a respectable place for the legal system in redressing wrongs, I don't think we should be relying on it as a regulatory agency. - 9:32 PM
- Raised By Republicans said...
I agree with most of the previous comments: Yes, using law suits is a poor substitute for actually enforcing regulations that protect people. And "tort reform" is little more than an attempt to give corporations an even greater immunity than they already have.

ACI Media Releases
Montréal, Québec, CANADA, 25 October 2012 – ACI World's Director General Angela Gittens today announced the publication of ACI's 2013 edition of the Global Traffic Forecast 2012-2031. According to Angela Gittens, "The data included in the Forecast is relied up by our members, aviation regulators and governments worldwide as an essential tool to help them plan capacity enhancements to meet the future demand for travel."
Since 1997 ACI has surveyed its members for their views on the short, medium and long term outlook of the global aviation passenger and cargo markets. The results of this survey provide the foundation for this 20-year forecast which has been created by the ACI/DKMA forecasting team. It is based on detailed inputs from close to 200 airports all over the world, from small origin and destination (O&D) airports to large hubs. This high level of coverage means that the ACI / DKMA forecasting team is confident that the forecasts closely reflect industry expectations and are the most accurate forecasts available at the time of writing. In order to facilitate precise understanding of the forecasts and ensure that the data are actionable, this report also provides insight into the "soft" and "qualitative" drivers of growth in the industry. These qualitative drivers have been taken into account in the forecast data. Please do not hesitate to contact ACI if you require more information about this report or the information contained in it.
Passenger Forecasts
Global traffic growth got off to a positive start in 2012, with January to May figures indicating continued healthy growth of 4.8% in passenger volumes. However, the short term outlook seems less positive as the sluggish global economic recovery shows further signs of weakness due to the deepening of the Euro zone crisis, a fragile recovery in the US and a slowdown in emerging markets. This points towards a slowdown in travel demand for the remainder of the year. By 2013, traffic should start to recover linked to a modest global economic growth which is projected to accelerate by 2014 onward.
Freight Forecasts
Economic activity is expected to remain the main driver of growth in freight. Domestic demand typically drives freight activity and globalization boosts international freight operations as trade expands. Freight operations (measured in tons) should grow faster than passenger operations. In 2011 freight was estimated at roughly 93 million tons and will more than double to reach about 225 million tons by 2031, averaging 4.5% growth per annum.

(Westwood, CA - February 25, 2011) As the first production of their new season, West Coast Jewish Theatre has mounted this production of Broken Glass by Arthur Miller at Pico Playhouse. The West Coast Jewish Theatre is known for presenting artistic pieces that explore different facets of the Jewish experience. In Broken Glass we zero in on a moment in time and a place –1938 in Brooklyn. With his creative insight, Miller gives us a magnifying glass on the lives and internal grappling of his main Jewish characters, all sons and daughters of immigrants.
Georja: There is Phillip Gellburg, played masterfully by
Michael Bofshever, a mortgage lender and the only Jew in his company. He is so ambivalent about his Jewishness that he often scorns other Jews and anything Jewish, although at the end of the piece he comes to realize that part of him wishes to be praying all day in temple. Then there is his wife Sylvia, the engaging
Susan Angelo, who is obsessing about stories in the newspaper of the treatment of Jews in early Nazi Germany. She is not grounded in the here and now, evidently partly because of the lack of sex and affection from her husband. Her legs go unexplainably numb. Enter Dr. Harry Hyman, played dashingly by
Stephen Burleigh. He is more of a bon vivant who tries to help Sylvia and later Phillip. He is much more in touch with his own personal feelings and even admits his attraction to Sylvia. Gerald: Dr. Hyman is also Jewish and he studied for his medical practice in Germany. He says he's fond of the Germans, and he assures Phillip and Sylvia that the people he knew wouldn't be capable of such brutality, and that Nazism is bound to be a passing fad. But his medical diagnosis is much more accurate. He seems to know almost from the outset what is afflicting Sylvia.
Georja: Other characters include Harriet played by Renae Geerlings, the long-suffering concerned sister of Sylvia, who also puts in her two cents and has some very emotional scenes. Peggy Dunne plays Margaret Hyman, the more lighthearted shiksa wife of Harry, and Lindsey Ginter plays Stanton Case, the WASP CEO and yachtsman who owns Phillips's company and refers to Jews as "you people."
Gerald: This was a time when some department store chains refused to buy goods from Jewish vendors. The doctor points out that he went to study in Germany because there were waiting lists for admitting Jews into colleges in the United States.
Georja: The only one who is tuned in to the dangers and impending horrors in Germany is Sylvia, and it is too much for her to bear. Everyone else wants to blame her infirmity on her sex life or at least her lack of honesty and communication with her husband. All of them approach their Judaism from different perspectives: Sylvia and Harriet come from a close-knit family and would not think of going against their mother's wishes; Harry, the most well educated of the group, has come to embrace socialism and see through the stereotypes. The most conflicted is Phillip, who grovels one minute and has fierce pride the next.
Gerald: Phillip's conflict about his Jewishness is central to the story. It's all about guilt. But in his loyalty to his employers and his officious manner with friends and relatives, he's the one who most resembles the Nazi oppressors. And Syvlia seems to be reacting as much out of fear of him as to nameless oppressors overseas.
Georja: Aside from the Jewish issues, Miller delves deeper and deeper into their personal lives, finding nuggets of truth and universally recognizable problems. He never shies away and keeps exploring the secret fears and longings of his characters, peeling away masks, then skin and bones to uncover the deepest essences. That is his genius.
Gerald: Miller and many playwrights of his generation created a modern American drama centered on pressure-cooker crisis in the dysfunctional family. He also tended to infuse his stories with political symbolism. In Broken Glass, Sylvia tells the doctor about "this dark thing inside me," and we get that she's talking about the suffering that will soon take over Europe like the plague.
Georja: The stage was beautifully designed by Erin Brewster and lit by Leigh Allen. Costume designer Melanie Watnick did a fine job of conjuring up the era. And especially kudos to director Elina de Santos for taking on an intense piece and guiding the actors into such vulnerable places. It is a heavy show, and the only thing one could wish for would be a few more moments of levity, which perhaps could highlight the themes even more.
Gerald: This brand of theater is born of anger. Miller identified strongly with the working-class politics of the mid-twentieth century, and particularly with the union movement. Today it seems our plays are mostly about personal and sexual politics. Perhaps the pendulum is about to swing back the other way?
Georja Umano is an actress/comedienne and animal advocate. Gerald Everett Jones is the author of the Rollo Hemphill series of comic novels.

by Tariq Malik, SPACE.com Managing Editor – Date: 22 August 2011 Time: 03:35 PM ET
Move over Commander Data, there's a real robot in space, now. The International Space Station got a new crew member today, one made not of flesh and blood, but of gears and clockwork instead.Called Robonaut 2, the automaton astronaut was activated by human spaceflyers today (Aug. 22) after months in storage since being delivered to the space station earlier this year. An initial series of tests checked the robot's power systems and camera eyes."Those electrons feel GOOD!" read a post on Robonaut 2's Twitter page. "One small step for man, one giant leap for tinman kind." [Photos: Robonaut 2, Robot Butler for Astronauts]
The first view through the robot's eyes was a complicated panel of cables, dials and instruments.
"Sure wish I could move my head and look around," another Robonaut 2 Twitter post read.
The robot won't actually move for several more weeks, as its creators continue running tests.To be clear, Robonaut 2 cannot post Twitter updates on its own (the robot's engineering team does that under the name @AstroRobonaut). But the $2.5 million Robonaut 2, also known as R2, is designed to serve as a robot helper for the six-man crew on the space station.Robonaut 2 is the first humanoid robot ever to fly in space and was built by NASA as part of a joint project with car manufacturer General Motors.
The goal is to build a robot helper suitable to assist humans in complex tasks, be they in space or on Earth, project officials have said."He has been groveling in his stowage location over here in the lab," space station astronaut Mike Fossum of NASA told Mission Control.
"The complaint's mainly been that he wants to get out and get to work. Well, today is finally the day.
"NASA delivered Robonaut 2 to the space station during the shuttle Discovery's final flight in February.
At the time, NASA planned to leave the robot in its box, but President Barack Obama urged astronauts to set it free during a phone call to the space station."C'mon, unpack the guy! He flew all that way and you guys aren't unpacking him?" Obama joked. The robot was ultimately unpacked in March, then put aside until it was needed.Today, space-station flight controllers at the outpost's Payload Operations Center with NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., echoed President Obama's remarks as Robonaut 2 performed its first systems' checks."We know he's glad to be out of his container," a flight controller told the space-station crew.In it is current configuration, Robonaut 2 has a head, torso, arms and super-dexterous hands, but it does not have legs or feet.
Instead, it is attached using an anchor-like pole to hold it in place. It is about 3 feet, 4 inches (1.01 meters) tall and weighs about 330 pounds (150 kilograms). [Infographic: Meet Robonaut 2]A twin of Robonaut 2 stayed behind on Earth and can be plugged into a mobile base to wheel around different terrains. NASA will take that Earth-bound robot into the New Mexico desert next week as part of a space-exploration technology demonstration test program called DesertRATS.When fully assembled on the space station, Robonaut 2 juts out from a wall in the orbiting lab's U.S.-built Destiny module.
That made the robot a hazard to other station astronauts floating by.Fossum tied pieces of bright orange tape around the robot's wrists after today's tests so he and his crewmates could see and avoid the mechanical man."Hopefully, with a little bit of orange flagging tape there it will help remind people not to touch," Fossum radioed Mission Control.That was good news to Mission Control.
The last thing anyone wants is an accident that could damage the robot, Fossum and flight controllers agreed."You know, when he goes into motion, he'll probably act in his own self defense," Mission Control added with a laugh.

Chapter 13 involves a repayment plan. The court must approve your repayment plan and your budget. Chapter 13 is a valuable tool that lets you catch up overdue mortgage or car payments, taxes and domestic support obligations. It also applies where you have the ability to repay some or all of your debts over time. You must have less than $360,475 in unsecured debt (such as credit cards and doctor's bills) and less than $1,081,400 in secured debt (such as mortgages and car loans) to qualify for Chapter 13. These numbers are applicable from April 1, 2010 thru March 31, 2013, adjustable every 3 years by CPI.
Under Chapter 13, you keep all of your property, both exempt and non-exempt, as long as you resume making your regular payments on secured debt and keep current under the repayment plan that you propose. Your total payment to unsecured creditors, though, must equal or exceed the total value of your non-exempt property when compares to a chapter 7 liquidation.
In certain circumstances it may be possible to reduce a car payment. A repayment plan can last for up to five years. After finishing your payments, most of your unsecured debts are discharged.
The filing fee for a Chapter 13 is $274.00. In most cases, once you file your case, the "Automatic Stay" immediately goes into effect. The Automatic Stay means that a bankruptcy filing automatically stops, or stays, and brings to a halt most lawsuits, repossessions, foreclosures, evictions, garnishments, attachments, utility shut-offs, and debt collection harassment. Generally, creditors cannot take any further action against you or your property without permission from the Bankruptcy Court.
In a foreclosure situation, if your desire is to keep your home, Chapter 13 is preferable to Chapter 7 because Chapter 13 allows you to catch up your arrears (overdue payments). As long as you keep up with the plan payments and post-petition mortgage payments, lenders will not be able to obtain an order lifting the automatic stay and continue with the foreclosure proceeding.
In a Chapter 7 situation, even though there is an automatic stay in place, lenders will still be able to bring a motion to lift the stay and continue with the foreclosure proceeding.
Other benefits of Chapter 13:
Lien Strip a junior Mortgage: If the value of your home is less than the principal balance you owed on the first mortgage, you will be able to strip off the second or third mortgage, reduce them to the status of unsecured creditor, and discharge the lien when the plan is completed.
Cram down a car loan: It is possible to negotiate with lender to reduce the car loan to fair market value of the car and reduce the interest rate to reasonable rate, then reaffirm the car loan.
Super discharge certain debts: Certain debts not dischargeable in Chapter 7, such as intentional tort debt or a debt incurred by fraud can be discharged in Chapter 13.
Co-debtor Stay: 11 U.S.C. Section 1301 prevents a creditor from pursuing a co-debtor on a consumer debt so long as the debtor propose in his/her Chapter 13 plan to pay the cosigned debt in full.
Control sale of property: 11 U.S.C. Section 1303 provides the debtor, not the trustee, the right to sell property under Section 363 of the Code. Debtor could liquidate property in a manner and at a time most advantageous to the debtor.
Operation of business: For a debtor operating a sole proprietorship business, Chapter 13 permits the debtor to continue with the business.
There are other benefits depending on your individual situations. Please call us for a free consultation.

**Update (8:41 a.m.). Users have reported some difficulties accessing the poll from Firefox. For this particular survey tool, you may need to switch over to Internet Explorer to participate. Apologies for the difficulties.**
Due to the increasing number of complaints about noise in the library, we are considering temporarily modifying the talking/quiet designations for the upcoming exam period (May 2 - May 17, 2006). Since this is an issue which may directly impact you, I invite you to participate in a quick poll to express your preference :
Please vote only once. If there is evidence of widespread abuse (e.g. twice the number of votes than the number of students), I will discard the results. Any decision that the library makes will be distributed through email and posted on this blog.
The poll will close at midnight on Tuesday, April 25, 2006.
Two other important notes :
(1) If the voting shows substantial support (even if the number is still a minority of the total votes) for talking areas, the existing room designations will not be changed.
(2) Regardless of the vote, please remember that any "talking" areas of the library are intended for low-voiced talking, for primarily study purposes. Because of the floor layout of the library, sounds carry easily. Please be courteous of others by keeping voices low both in the "talking" rooms and while walking from one room to the next.
Thank you for your input.

Who ever heard of a library with "talking zones" anyway? And does it really matter if the talking zones are eliminated? Who is enforcing the no talking rule?? Let's hope that this year's 3L class improves its study habits and gets us back into the 2nd tier!
The idea of having a designated talking area, while well intentioned, only seems to permit talking to spill over into the supposedly quiet areas. And enforcement is almost non-existent. Also, the professors on the whole try very hard to be quiet, but you can't expect someone who is having a conference or taking a phone call to have to whisper.

Classy Cafe Sparrow eases Monday moodiness with its rustic ambience, delicate cuisine and wine specials
By Selene Latigo
Alas, the infinite drag of Monday after a long, lazy and hot weekend. Since the days have lengthened and the weather has warmed, the last thing Dave or I feel like doing on Mondays is making dinner, so last week we decided to have a date night. Tired, hungry, but ready for romance, we headed over to Aptos and the quaint Cafe Sparrow.
Upon entering, I felt the day's tensions ebb. Soothing pastel colors, hardwood floors and multilevel dining areas create a welcoming mood and spaciousness. Soft touches of lace and fresh flowers are paired with rustic French countryside details, a classy yet comfortable setting.
We chose a corner table by the back window and were given our own specials chalkboard along with the wine list and regular menu. My mood lifted upon realizing that Monday at Cafe Sparrow means half-off all wines. From primarily local selections, we chose the 2000 Cooper-Garrod Cabernet Franc ($44), feeling like thieves for getting such a great wine for $22. Layered with flavors of tobacco, leather, sage, cassis and nasturtium, the Cab Franc proved to be an excellent choice.
We started with the "Coco" appetizer of breaded, pan-fried Pacific oysters with lemon crème fraîche ($7.95). The four large golden oysters were not greasy at all and cooked skillfully to preserve their tenderness. (The crème fraîche was so good I rescued the remains from our plate and dipped everything into it throughout the meal.)
The restaurant was starting to fill up, with two large parties. Dave caught the eye of our proficient busser and asked for bread, owing to the rush our server was feeling. (Apparently the cheap wine secret is out, as well as Sparrow's nightly $15.95 special which includes soup or salad, a specified entree and bread pudding. Another great value is the small plate dinner option, in which any appetizer can be accompanied by a starch and vegetable of the evening for $3.95 extra.) After a weekend abundant with excesses, I was delighted by the lighter small plate idea and chose the goat cheese salad ($8.50). The warmed and lightly breaded button of peppery herbed goat cheese arrived perched atop delicately dressed mixed greens with chilled chunks of roasted tomatoes and croutons on the side. On a second plate, the buttery square of polenta had a crunchy exterior and supple interior, full of Parmesan and pepper. Not one but three types of vegetables blessed my "small" plate: crisp and bright green beans, sweet red beets and puréed squash, all of which tasted unadulterated and pure.
Dave decided on the petite serving of filet mignon ($16.95, regular serving is $26.95) with a choice of béarnaise butter, Dijon mustard cream or mushroom red wine sauce. He went with the latter and also ordered a small Caesar for $3.95 extra (with entree). The salad was a bit overdressed and heavy on the anchovies but with a touch more lemon achieved balance. His filet was complemented perfectly with the simple reduced red wine sauce and the complex cabernet franc.
Dave also received the same beautifully presented vegetables, minus the polenta. This "petite" portion was definitely ample, revealing yet another way to save at Cafe Sparrow. Perhaps I will introduce a new rating system here--how clean was Dave's plate? His personal seal of approval is a gleaming plate wiped spotless, and on this night, the candle created a glare on his plate.
By now all of our Monday moodiness had disappeared and we were thoroughly reveling in the food, the wine and each other. No date can end without a decadent dessert, so we selected the sampler plate ($12.95), featuring three small portions of Sparrow's sweet specialties. Of the silky chocolate mousse cake, lemon pudding and profiteroles, our favorite was the pudding; tart and pungent, this lemon dessert was refreshing and not cloying.
Despite the complete absence of crema on Dave's espresso, the flavor was smooth and distinct and caused more of a quizzical confusion than any dissatisfaction. We gazed at each other and sighed, feeling deeply satisfied and remedied of any workday blues. Cafe Sparrow provides beautiful and delicious food with several options for saving money, maintaining sophistication and a warm ambience. And we had a wonderful date with some help from a Sparrow.

I'm not vegetarian but I live with two of them and I'm constantly amazed by how many amazing vegetarian recipes there are on the internet! I don't cook meat myself so it's been so helpful to find a few good food blogs and then adapt their recipes. I would go veg except for that I'm very anemic and I've never been able to get enough iron without eating red meat AND taking insanely high prescription iron supplements. Some weeks I forget to eat at least three servings of meat and my energy level plummets.
I made this yesterday without the bacon and it was unbelievably delicious. Substituting for meat is easy once you're used to it http://www.lottieanddoof.com/2010/07...sh-corn-pesto/ |

Red Wrap
27 comments:
Great top and I agree, the color is great on you. Your shoes are super-cute too - any chance you got them recently? I've been looking for a new pair of red shoes.
ReplyDeleteNot sure what happened to my comment so I will write it again....
Great maternity top. The colour looks really nice on you. I really like the seaming on the back. The shoulders seams are a bit oddly placed aren't they? It doesn't look odd, but I imagine it could feel a little odd. First kicks - so exciting!Look at that little tiny baby bump! I really need to start sewing clothes! Have you told us the sex yet????
ReplyDeleteWhat a great top! I love the color on you. I don't know what's happening in the back, though I've read that the pelvis (and therefore the hips) expands during pregnancy. I don't know when that happens. But it could be that the widening of the pelvis is changing the fit and causing the riding up.
