When I opened my private "solo" practice, for the first time, I truly understood what it meant to be an attorney and "counselor" at law. I understand that retaining the services of an attorney can be emotionally exhausting and an incredibly trying time. I know and understand that your legal matter is of great importance to...

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) has agreed to pay $225 million to settle securities and accounting fraud claims relating to the Tyco International Ltd. securities class action, presently pending in the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire before Judge Paul Barbadoro. This settlement with PwC, combined with the recent settlement with Tyco - the largest ever by a single corporate defendant - will bring the total settlement to more than $3.2 billion by the time it is presented to the court for final distribution, inclusive of interest.
The settlement with PwC, reached after four years of hard-fought litigation and extensive mediation, represents one of the largest recoveries on record from an outside auditor in the history of securities class action litigation. Investors who purchased or acquired Tyco securities from December 13, 1999 through and including June 7, 2002 are covered by the settlement.
Shareholders alleged that as Tyco's auditor, PwC was in a unique position to uncover the fraud and to prevent the damages to Tyco's shareholders. However, PwC is alleged to have failed in its duties as a corporate watchdog at a time when Tyco is alleged to have overstated its income during the class period by $5.8 billion.
Defendants Dennis Kozlowski (Tyco's former CEO) and Mark Swartz (former CFO) have been sentenced to up to 25 years in prison after being convicted of grand larceny, falsification of business records and conspiracy for their roles in the alleged scheme to defraud investors. Former Tyco board member Frank Walsh has also pled guilty to committing fraud.
The Class is represented by co-lead counsel, Schiffrin Barroway Topaz & Kessler, LLP, Grant & Eisenhofer P.A., and Milberg Weiss & Bershad LLP. "This settlement with PwC serves as an exclamation point for our litigation over what was one of the most egregious corporate frauds of our time. This result is significant because investors in public markets need to have confidence in the truth of what is reported, said Richard Schiffrin, founding partner of Schiffrin Barroway.
"When there is a breakdown, this settlement shows that investors will not be satisfied until there is accountability and responsibility on behalf of not just the company at issue, but also the purported corporate watchdogs," added Jay Eisenhofer of Grant & Eisenhofer.
Sanford Dumain of Milberg Weiss further stated, "We are pleased that this settlement represents by far the largest settlement ever agreed to by PwC. The amount of the settlement is especially significant in light of the claim by securities fraud defendants that recent court decisions have erected enormous obstacles to proving loss causation and damages." Several union and public pension funds, including the United Association General Officers Pension Plan, United Association Office Employees Pension Plan, United Association Local Union Officers & Employees Pension Fund, Plumbers and Pipefitters National Pension Fund, Teachers Retirement System of Louisiana and Louisiana State Employees Retirement System served as class representatives certified by the court in this litigation.

Champion Family Album Blog
Blog type: Individual family history
I've been interested in family history for years but never had the time to do much with it. In the last year I subscribed to Ancestry.com and really got on the fast track with it.
As I started adding names to my tree, it became apparent that the number of branches could be overwhelming. With each generation, the number of branches doubled. So if you assume there is a new generation every 25 years, then 128 branches would be there by the time you traced back to the Civil War.

The society's Computer Interest Group (CIG) also meets one time a month on the second Saturday of each month from 9 am to noon. Meetings are held downstairs in the Chapel Hill Public Library at 100 Library Drive, Chapel Hill, NC.
Familypast Blog
Blog type: Individual family history
This is my first blog – something I thought I'd never do. I've watched my family dip their toes into the sea of blog and swim away, leaving me well, stranded in my blogless world. Well I've taken the plunge and here I am.
My main reason for starting to blog is to record my family history triumphs and tribulations – I'm no expert, I've only been researching for 11 years – no time at all in the genealogy world and I seem to amassed a whole range of paper documents, photos, certificates and memories that would keep anyone busy for a lifetime. I've even had time to do a full-time job, move twice, run the family home and edit a local family history society's magazine. At one time I even started to catalogue births, deaths and marriages from the local newspapers – I think these might become a feature!
Some of my lines of research are : Densham, Star, Downham, Dillon, Sutcliffe, Roadhouse, Gill, Allsop, Harrison, Hopkins, Morris(s), Heasman, Jeal, Labbett and Grubb.
For Your Family Story
Blog type: Genealogy education
This blog is designed with the "newbie" [someone new to genealogy] in mind. Those who don't know a thing about genealogy. And those who may have begun researching, but did so with no instruction. And now need a wee bit of help. Or don't know what to do next.
As we progress further, there will be posts for those who are no longer "newbies" but who still need some help or ideas. What you won't see here are posts for advanced researchers. Why? Because there are plenty of blogs and sites that already do a fantastic job at explaining advanced methodology. And I'll share those links a little bit later.
The one consistent theme you'll see here is that genealogy is not boring. It's not stuffy. And it's fun. At least, I'm gonna try and make it fun. It won't be hard. I promise. Ancestors rarely disappoint with their antics. Their silly decisions. And sometimes poor choices. Sometimes they were sad. But sometimes they're downright hilarious. But what they're not is boring and stuffy. [Even though most of the time they look boring and stuffy in their photos.]
Genealogic Abounds
Blog type: Genealogy education, Individual family history
"Who do I think I am" writing a genealogy blog…….? Well that is a very good question. I caught the genealogy "bug" from my great aunt at the ripe old age of 16. Back then there was no Internet and only manual research options where available to me. I dove in though; hoping to find the missing pieces of the vast puzzle that intrigued me. Clearly my results must be obvious. I am STILL searching for those missing pieces to my puzzle-(this is where you look surprised)!
A couple of things I have learned in my years of genealogy research are: 1) you are NEVER completely through searching for clues and facts; and 2) this researcher rarely has enough time in a day to fulfill my research fix. The good news is I work in a field where I have to trace and piece together familial lines for businesses, so I do get to "enjoy the hunt" most days. This has only led me to a greater desire to piece my own family puzzle together. So I guess that makes me the family detective/historian. This I gladly accept as my challenge and fate.
One word of warning; I am not a great speller. I am a card carrying member of "the bad spellers of the world UNTIE" club, so I ask your tolerance with this matter.
Other than all that; I am a seeker- plan and simple. I know what I know and I'm eager to share with all of you. I am seeking additional wisdom and resources for my genealogy journey. I love to learn, so feel free to share with me too.

The Family Griot
Blog type: African-American genealogy, Individual family history
First of all, let me explain what the goal of my research is and what I hope to get out of it. The goal of my research is to re-claim my family lineage, spiritually and physically. Right now I am focusing mainly on the physical lineage with a little bit of assistance (I think) from my ancestors. During my research I depend quite a bit on intuition and spiritual guidance to lead me in the right direction in reassembling my family tree. This may not work for everyone and it doesn't always work for me. I do depend often on the support of seasoned ancestor hunters at the African-American genealogy site Afrigeneas for references, sites and general places where I can find recorded information. They are the absolute best!
The Misadventures of a Genealogist
Blog type: Individual family history
Some may be wondering why I would decide to put a blog up. Well, why not! I registered this domain through my brother around 2003. At the time the website was already about 2 years old, if not older! I was hosting it on our Internet Provider's servers. It was a cute little basic site. In fact, it's possible I still have old files from it on a backup disc somewhere. I'll have to break them out sometime! Once I started combining my website coding knowledge and my love of genealogy, things really started to click. I may not have been extremely active all through the years, but I've always had something up.
Back when I first started the domain moore-mays.org, I started experimenting with ways to communicate about what I was finding. Genealogy is such an exciting subject when you find the right audience. Until that time the only people I would talk about it with was my wonderful, understanding, but not as interested family. Sure they liked hearing about it, but they didn't want to talk about it everyday. Party poopers! So I put up a message board on my original domain. Needless to say, at the time it was too much too soon! So I continued making over the site, learning about coding and different things. I never really found that outlet I enjoyed.
This medium will give me the outlet I need, but not overwhelm. I can post about a find, or just about interesting events I find in history. It's what I think will work for me best. Too bad it took me 7 years to try it out!

The Hackworths
Graeme and Nimmi Hackworth and their three children live in the marginal electorate of Eden-Monaro.
This is the first time their oldest son Joshua will be old enough to vote in a federal election. It's also the first election for Nimmi, having become an Australian citizen in 2005.
They are currently renting and Graeme describes them as a "large debt-free family", meaning they have no major loans and he keeps his credit card debt in very tight control.
Graeme has lived overseas for 20 years, returning to Australia before the 2004 election. He voted by post during that time.
He is a casual teacher and researcher of history and anthropology, Nimmi works permanent part-time in retail and Josh also works in retail as a casual.
Graeme has a varied voting history. Rather than staunchly supporting one particular party he prefers to make his mind up on what the candidates offer based on his concerns.
Question 1: Who do you think won the debate, and why.
Kevin Rudd was well-informed, confident and looked like he had done his homework. He made a good introduction and was, according to Graeme, reminiscent of Hawke's debating style. They were slightly annoyed at his references to "I" but John Howard had frequently done the same thing.
Question 2: In the context of the debate, who in your view has the clearest vision for Australia's future?
Kevin Rudd. Mr Howard was basically promoting a "continuing vision" for Australia instead of future direction for the country. Mr Rudd summed up in his opening statement his vision and what he was looking to achieve.
Question 3: In the context of the debate, what were the main areas of interest to you?
Josh was interested in their plans for Iraq and Afghanistan which were briefly referred to. Nimmi liked Mr Rudd's plan on working-class families and while both candidates talked about climate change and education they needed to go into more detail. Graeme wanted to hear more from both men, see how they reacted and find out what they really seemed to care about.
Question 4: How, if at all, did the debate change your view of either leader?
They all agree that Kevin Rudd's performance was better than John Howard's. Mr Howard started strongly but was rattled several times. Mr Costello's interjection did not help. They noticed that Mr Rudd was taking notes, not only displaying an impressive debating style but an indication of someone who was generally interested in gathering information and being across what is going on. Graeme also noted that Mr Howard's approach in his question to Mr Rudd about climate change was "beneath the dignity of the office". Editor's note: On reflection Graeme Hackworth felt he may have been "too harsh" in his observation that Mr Howard's remarks were "beneath the dignity of his office." It was not his intention to attack the PM.
Question 5: Who looked more confident?
They all agree that it was easily Mr Rudd although Mr Howard did pick up in confidence on foreign matters.
Question 6: On which issues do you think Mr Howard emerged a clear winner?
Mr Howard spoke with an "almost rare" caring passion when speaking on his plans for Aboriginal Australians. Josh thought highly of his views on terrorism and Iraq; Graeme agreed to some extent. They said Mr Howard also spoke well on climate change and in using his office to influence China and the US on the issue.
Question 7: On which issues do you think Mr Rudd emerged as the clear winner?
Mr Rudd seemed very well informed and prepared and they agree that he was the clearly better on any other topics not mentioned above. John Howard avoided answering the cross questions from Mr Rudd which left Mr Rudd as their clear winner in that area.
Question 8: Has it helped you decide which way you'll vote. If so, what way do you intend to vote?
Josh was originally leaning more towards Mr Howard but now he is more evenly split between the two. Graeme and Nimmi think that both parties have their strengths and weaknesses but for them, the real decision for them is between their local candidates, especially Gary Nairn (Liberal) and Mike Kelly (Labor).
Question 9: Do you think there should be another debate?
They all agree that there should definitely be at least one other debate because there were a lot of issues that were either not covered or only briefly mentioned. This debate was too focused on economic issues and short-term goals.
Question 10: Were there any areas of interest to you which weren't discussed?
Refugees, which was big during the last election but seems to have disappeared this time, there was nothing about foreign affairs except Iraq and there was nothing on foreign aid. Health only got a brief mention and they would like to see a better sense of direction about where Australia is headed in the next decades, not just years.
Question 11: Are there any general observations you'd like to make?
Graeme thinks it is sad what political leaders have to do and promise nowadays to be elected and to see their ideas, passions and cares implemented. There were several references to "I" when they thought it was meant to be about the team. They didn't like the put-downs especially from these two men who are aspiring to be the leading statesmen of the country. They also think that the questioners could have done a better job at times probing into issues, especially as some were not explored at all.

XtremIO, a maker of enterprise flash storage array, has closed its extended Series B round with $19 million. Based in San Jose, Calif., XtremIO is backed by Battery Ventures, Giza Ventures, Jerusalem Venture Partners and Lightspeed Venture Partners. As a result of the latest round, David Gussarsky of Lightspeed will take a seat on the company's board. Since it was formed in 2009, XtremIO has raised a total of $25 million.
XtremIO, which is bringing unprecedented levels of performance, scalability, reliability, and ease-of-use to SAN storage with its breakthrough scale-out enterprise flash storage array, today announced it has closed an extended Series B funding round including Lightspeed Venture Partners and now totaling more than $19 million. David Gussarsky of Lightspeed will take a seat on the company's board of directors. The company, which has raised over $25 million since its founding in 2009, plans to devote the new capital to expanding its business operations and engineering team as the market demand for flash-based storage arrays accelerates.
"It is clear that hard drive based storage arrays have become the performance bottleneck in the data center infrastructure stack. Whether virtualizing servers or desktops (VDI), running analytics, or consolidating databases, a new approach is needed to bring storage performance in-line with the advancements made over the past several years in servers and networking," said Ehud Rokach, CEO of XtremIO. "XtremIO's array architecture was developed from the ground up to leverage the speed and unique abilities of flash memory, and with our strong venture backing we are ready to bring a tremendous leap forward in I/O and latency performance to the market, unveil unique new capabilities that hard drive based storage cannot match, and eliminate the complexity that has traditionally plagued SAN storage configuration and tuning."
"We are on the cusp of a massive technology shift from performance disk to flash technology for I/O intensive data center applications. After evaluating the market and XtremIO's technology, we are convinced that they have a breakthrough architecture and product to address data center storage I/O challenges," said David Gussarsky, Managing Partner at Lightspeed Venture Partners. "Lightspeed invests heavily in infrastructure companies with the potential to disrupt markets and with very strong technical and management teams. We are pleased to invest in and support XtremIO."

MARTINEZ — Following a last-second flurry of negotiations between Antioch and Contra Costa officials, county supervisors on Tuesday gave the go-ahead to a complex pair of financial agreements that clears the way for a 678-acre annexation.
The land located to Antioch's northeast is divided into three swaths: 481 acres of industrial waterfront that includes two natural gas-fired power plants, 94 acres for marina and storage uses, and 103 acres of established rural properties off Viera Avenue.
"This was not been an easy process to go through; there are some unique circumstances here," Catherine Kutsuris, the county's director of conservation and development, told the board.
A couple of recent hang-ups have centered on plans detailing how estimated millions in future tax revenue generated in the area would be split and how both agencies would cover costs for water, sewer and storm drain improvements in the Viera area, which drew international attention in 2009 because of the Jaycee Dugard kidnapping case.
City and county staff and legal counsels met early Tuesday morning to negotiate while the Board of Supervisors meeting was in session. By 1 p.m., amended versions of the tax transfer and infrastructure improvement documents were considered by the board.
The changed language deals with how improvements would be added to the Viera area and financial protections.
The agreement also calls for the county to handle application processing, plan review and building inspections for 114 acres of waterfront land that Forestar Real Estate is looking to develop for the city, while Antioch would retain land use authority.
"I think what's before us is very reasonable. It's really important at the end of the day, the partnership of Antioch and the county as we serve our mutual constituencies," county Supervisor Mary Nejedly Piepho, of Discovery Bay, said.
The city and county will contribute $3 million over 10 years to add water, sewer and storm drains to residential areas, with Antioch covering the rest with grants and loans. Antioch estimates it would cost about $10.7 million, and nearly $5 million more in other engineering and contingency costs, to add the infrastructure.
Property tax revenue in the area would be split 62 percent to the county and 38 percent to the city.
Antioch estimates the area could yield about $900,000 in net tax revenue each year and provide other economic opportunities on the waterfront. Both parties will also set aside $500,000 over the next five years to boost area economic development initiatives.
The approved documents will now go before the Antioch City Council for consideration at its Nov. 26 meeting, city officials said. If it is approved that night, the Local Agency Formation Commission, which has final say on all annexations, would likely consider annexation in January, Executive Director Lou Ann Texeira said.

You Asked: Is He Over His Ex?
Dear Sugar,
I have been with the man that I plan to marry for a little over a year now. He is a great guy, but something recently happened that I just can't seem to get over. He was married previously, and things ended badly with his wife — she cheated on him. She has been unkind to me, and in the beginning I had to overcome insecurities that he might still be in love with her.
Six months into our relationship I came across some pictures of his ex in a photo album that now contains pictures of me and him. Obviously, I knew he had pictures of her, but something about sharing a photo album made me uncomfortable. I decided to tell him how I felt, and the next day he told me that he threw the pictures away. Yesterday as he was moving some of his things into my home I noticed a box of pictures. Out of curiosity, I began to look through them, and came across the pictures of his ex that he had supposedly thrown away.
I confronted him about it, and though initially defensive, he did eventually apologize. He claims that he doesn't know why he never threw them away. He has assured me that he wants to spend the rest of his life with me and that nothing could change that. I know he loves me, but I don't know how to get over the feeling that he isn't over his ex. Why would he hold onto those pictures? Why would he lie to me? Am I overreacting?
— Picture Phobic Pia
To see DearSugar's answer,
Dear Picture Phobic Pia,
Due to his difficult divorce, it sounds like your relationship has been plagued with insecurity from the get-go. Even if you both love each other, insecurity can easily haunt a relationship and destroy a happy couple. You really have to put these issues to rest before you can consider making a lifelong commitment.
You won't be able to let any of this go if you don't start recognizing that your boyfriend did have a very serious relationship with another woman prior to meeting you and that history can't just be erased. It doesn't mean that he's still in love with his ex or that he doesn't love you, but the reality is that he probably does harbor some feelings towards her, both good and bad. With time those feelings are sure to lessen, but for now, don't let them play a role in your relationship or make you question what you know to be true.
That said I think it's important to always trust your gut. If issues with his ex continue, and you're starting to feel the familiar twinge of concern about his intentions towards you (or her), it's time to lay down the law. He absolutely cannot have both of you, so don't be afraid to tell him so. Love is an amazing thing, but relationships come and go, so take care of yourself first and foremost. Good luck!

My heart is filled with affection for three ladies whose guts and devotion have assisted to change the lives of cleft palate kids and young students.
I initially fell for Carmex about ten years ago, when I was acting as a peace corps task in the Republic of Armenia. The air in Armenia is very dry and it gets incredibly hot there in the summers. I started making use of lip balm as a method of keeping my lips from getting parched by the intense sun. At some point, I got my hands on a pot of Carmex and right away fell in love with the method it prickled on my lips. I also loved the truth that the lip balm has staying power. I can apply it and still feel it on my lips an hour later.
Today there are numerous adult education courses provided by public schools, colleges, churches, synagogues, companies, museums, galleries and personal institutions, you can study virtually anything you really want. Learning in itself is a remarkable hobby, but more importantly, it can present you to many other interesting activities and interests to pursue in the future. The old proverb, "you cannot teach an old pet dog brand-new tricks," isn't really real. The problem is that too numerous people "old pet dogs" simply don't attempt. Present the effort and you can find out anything you really want and the more you discover the much easier it ends up being.
It is not all that tough to discover a happy medium peace corps job in between the 2 accents. You will certainly still seem like an American, however without constantly tripping over you tongue. Why not provide it a shot. The outcomes could amaze you.
The very best concept I received while writing this book was to hope out loud as a household. Lastly, it got through to her. This allowed Darcy to see that my prayers are not perfect words, and the responses peace corps volunteer don't come like a bolt from the sky. Family prayer has actually helped my child become a lot more comfortable with praying.
Second of all, Eurail passes are not constantly cost reliable. If you're over age 26, for example, you have to acquire a grownup pass as opposed to a youth pass. Grownup passes allow you to travel in very first or 2nd course, however they're much more pricey than youth passes are. Very first class vehicles are definitely more comfortable than second course cars are, however not by a lot. Very first class automobiles are primarily occupied by European business owners and other Americans. Often you can get a more affordable train ticket in your area than you would using the Eurail pass.
Rigoberta Menchu has actually made a difference in the world. She has brought the world's attention to the plight of the native people of Guatemala. She has actually also taken amazing efforts to resolve the trouble. Rigoberta had the nerve to look the issue in the eye and attempt to combat it. She did decline the misconception that the problem was too big or too hard. She combated, and is still fighting, for exactly what she believes in. That is a praiseworthy quality in anyone.


text: Hello Birders, In case you are interested, go to the link below to read a story which the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC has put out about the movie, THE MARCH OF THE PENGUINS, that everyone is chattering about. All of my non-birdwatching friends have told me it is a "must see." There was something on PBS about these penguins "walking 70 miles to mate" some years ago which is what seems to have the non-birders freaking out. I guess they just don't understand that birds have habitats where they are "at home" and have their families. Everything about the emperor penguin that is mentioned in this article was covered on the program I saw several years ago. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/08/0819_050819_march_penguins.html Dee Thompson Nashville, TN

Speaking to the media at his residence here, Rajagopal claimed the "star batsmen" would set right the things whenever there was threat to unity of the State. Irrespective of the political parties and governments, Andhra Pradesh would remain in tact, he added.
Stating that there was no truth in the claim of some Congress leaders that Congress would win more seats if Andhra Pradesh was bifurcated, he predicted that the Congress would win 30 MP seats in the State if Andhra Pradesh was kept united. He also said the Congress would announce its decision on Telangana by end of this month.
Rajagopal felt that December 9, 2009 statement made by then Union Home Minister was linked with Assembly resolution on Telangana Statehood. But, TRS Chief K Chandrasekhara Rao did not accept Assembly resolution, which was mandatory for bifurcation of the State, he alleged.
Claiming that public verdict in 2004 and 2009 elections was in favor of united Andhra Pradesh, he exuded confidence that the Congress would for the third time come to power in the State after 2014 elections. The results of recently conducted cooperative elections were indication for reduced emotions among the people of Telangana region. Out of nine Telangana districts, the Congress won eight DCCBs, he pointed out.
The Congress MP said while the separatists were provoking the people for division, but the Congress would never do such thing. He also opined that electoral fight would be between Congress and TDP in the Gram Panchayat elections.

Android Questions? Ask Android Device Experts for Answers ASAP
I have discovered through Straight Talk Service that I can free up storage space on my cellular phone if I "copy an update package to image directory on storage card, then click ok" -- and that doing this will erase all data from my phone's internal storage and will then store it all on my SD card.
But I can't figure out how to do this...
OK, I have downloaded the OI File Manager app. Now what?
OK, I have moved it from phone to SD card. What now?
I've switched it to SD card under my applications settings, but it is not showing up under running applications. I'm not sure what you're asking me to do.
OK, I've tapped it...there is a Home icon, an mnt and an SD icon...and files under each one...No option to tap that reads "run"
I don't understand what you are asking me AT ALL. I downloaded the OI File Manager app...it downloaded and was sent automatically to SD card. My only option under Manage Applications is "move to phone" -- I don't want to do that, right?
What are you asking me to do??
OK, I have gone to my main apps screen and tapped on OI File Manager.
I have opened it. I see a list of files similar to my preloaded Docs To Go and Filer apps on my phone.
No. I've never seen one. I have no idea what ZTE or Straight Talk is talking about...but I need to put it on my SD card's image directory. I thought that's what you and I were doing?
YES!! I have almost 30GB free on my SD card but NO ROOM AT ALL on this stupid phone!

My friend and I have created a Poll voting site which allows a user to create a profile, add a friend(another user on the site) and create polls, vote on them and delete friends. We're having an error on our friend page when we click the x button beside a friend it should execute the delete_friend.php page code, but instead we're getting the following error:
Notice: Undefined variable: link in E:\Apache\N00090377\UVote\delete_friend.php on line 21 Fatal error: Call to a member function prepare() on a non-object in E:\Apache\N00090377\UVote\delete_friend.php on line 21
Here is the code for the delete_friend.php page anyone able to offer their expertise, we're not the greatest of coders and would appreciate some help thanks for reading.
// if this page was requested using a GET request then delete the friend
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'GET') {
// if friend id is not empty then try to delete the friend
if (!empty($_GET['memberId2'])) {
// read friend id from request
$memberId2 = $_GET['memberId2'];
// define DB connection data and connect to database
require_once 'db_connect.php';
// query string to execute including placeholder '?' for friend id
$sql = "DELETE FROM friendlist WHERE memberId2 = ?";
// friend id to be inserted into placeholder
$params = array($memberId2);
// prepare and execute the query using parameters
$stmt = $link->prepare($sql);
$status = $stmt->execute($params);
// if update executed ok then redirect the user to the view_friends page;
// redirection is used to prevent the request being accidently
// resubmitted if the response page is reloaded by the user
if ($status == true) {
header("Location: friends.php");
// else if update did not execute ok then send the user an error message
else {
$error_info = $stmt->errorInfo();
$error_message = "failed to delete friend: {$error_info[2]} - error code {$error_info[0]}";
require 'error.php';
// else if friend id is empty then send the user back to the view friends page
// with an error message
else {
$error_message = "friend id not specified";
require 'friends.php';
// if this page was not requested using a GET request then ignore it
else {
From the error, it looks as though $link is not a PDO instance. Is it declared in another file?
Thanks for the help
Sorted out the error by adding in this piece of code just before the if statement and it's deleting the friends from the list now:
require_once 'db_connect.php';
$dbinfo = "mysql:host=daneel:3306;dbname=N00090291";
$user = "N00090291";
$pass = "N00090291";
$link = new PDO($dbinfo, $user, $pass);
$link->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
Your welcome, feel free to come back if you have any more questions.

EAST LANSING - It was maybe the first time all year that Michigan State looked like a team.
They played like a team, acted like one, reacted like one.
A 19-point victory over 10-19 Iowa is no reason to plant a flag. But please understand, even at this late stage of the season, this Michigan State team is still under construction, still on the test track, still being tweaked, and yes, still improving.
Some may have hoped that Michigan State was a finished product after the 20-point loss at Iowa last month, or the 20-point loss to Purdue last weekend. But Izzo is still under the hood, still cranking the wrench.
During Wednesday night's 85-66 victory over Iowa, the Spartan bench provided a dominant push. Kalin Lucas and Draymond Green were limited factors for long portions of the game, but others stepped up, including freshmen Keith Appling (18 points) and Adreian Payne (8 points, 6 rebounds) in appetizing fashion. Like members of a team.
Michigan State went 7-for-14 from 3-point range, causing Spartan fans to take another look at the calendar on the wall, smile and wink.
With a big lead, Lucas and other Spartans tried to get a stress-relief shot or dunk or some sort of YouTube moment for beleaguered fallen hero Durrell Summers in the final minutes. They never quite got it lined up, and Summers didn't quite find his shot all night (going 3-for-8 from the field for 7 points, thanks to three tricky transition lay-ups), but Summers played harder than usual. He went hard for rebounds, gave effort on defense, ran the floor, tried to be scrappy, made pretty good decisions. For the team.
Garrick Sherman is back to finishing nicely around the rim. He was an opportunistic 3-of-4 for 7 points. He would have hit double figures if he had done better than 1-for-4 from the foul line. Don't look now, but Sherman is 12-for-15 from the field in his last seven games.
Derrick Nix went 5-for-5 from the foul line.
Through 29 games, Michigan State has disappointed those who picked the Spartans to be among the nation's Top 5. But we need to remember that this was just Game 7 of the season with a healthy Lucas.
And it was just Game 2 with a healthy Lucas, a reasonably healthy Green and Delvon Roe. The only other time all year that all three were healthy on the same night was the 75-57 victory over Penn State on Feb. 10. Green had a triple-double that night.
People look at MSU's record and see a lot of blemishes, and a 17-12 mark, and lots of first-half deficits in those 17 victories.
But the team that is going to play the remainder of March might be more like the 2-0 team than the 17-12 team. The 2-0 team being the one with a healthy Lucas, Green and Roe.
The word "healthy" is used loosely. Lucas suffered a mild ankle sprain during Sunday's blowout loss to Purdue. He missed practice on Monday. But he did not seem to have any lingering problems against Iowa, exploding late for 17 points on 5-of-12 shooting. He toned down some of the overzealous mistakes he made against Purdue, and was back to making contact, playing the percentages, hitting singles. That's what the team needs.
Green had a little better stamina and strength in this game, as he continues to recover from a mid-February battle with the flu. He was drained against Purdue.
But then Green went down with a mild ankle sprain early in the Iowa game. He limped to the locker room with a trainer, as MSU trailed in the early going. "I was watching the game in the locker room while they worked on me," Green said. "And I yelled a few times, about what was going on." Izzo looked to the heavens and cursed the basketball gods which have crapped an imperfect storm on him ever since he flirted with the Cavaliers, it seems.
But Green came back out, played on the ankle, and stuffed the stat sheet.
"I was a little concerned," Green said. "They asked me how it was, and even I didn't know until I went out there and tried to play on it. And it was okay."
Green had 12 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists in just 16 minutes of play. In addition to the injury, he also got into foul trouble. But maybe that was best for this team on this night. It forced guys like Payne, Nix (9 points) and Appling to produce.
Green's "Magic Johnson" smile was back, fully lit-up.
Appling was loving basketball life, after going 7-of-8 from the floor, including 4-of-5 from 3-point range. His near-perfect 18-point performance was the best he's played on this court since going for 49 as a junior in the Class A state championship game, setting a state record.
"It's March, and that's a time when we're supposed to be winning around here," Appling said.
What about the freshman wall he's supposed to be hitting about now?
"My legs were kind of heavy in a couple of games, like Minnesota," he said. "But the sun is coming back out now."
Delvon Roe didn't make a field goal and had only two rebounds. But he found a way to contribute with four assists, including a pretty driving dish to Payne for a dunk.
Roe provided quality help as a weakside defender, using his brain, length and quickness to plug gaps momentarily while teammates recovered. He was a glue guy on this night, stepping aside and letting freshmen come to the fore while seniors were honored. And a team previously mired in a troubling season didn't merely survive and advance, but more accurately thrived and advanced.
It's just one win. Against a bad team. But because it's Michigan State, a program of two straight Final Fours, a quality outing at this time of year creates curiosity. What if we see Appling continue to hit more of these open jumpers he's been missing over the last four or five weeks?
What if Payne continues to play harder and harder, making bigger, more wide-ranging impacts? He wouldn't be the first freshman frontcourt man to give the Spartans a late-season face lift. Think Erazem Lorbek in the 2003 drive to the Elite Eight, and Green in the '09 run to the Final Four. Could Payne be next? Well, he played with more physical force than at any time all year at Minnesota last week. Then he shied away and played soft against Purdue. But after having some shame pointed his way, he answered with an energetic effort against Iowa. That's progress. For the team.
This team lacks depth, and is always just one injury or foul problem away from becoming offensively flat again. But we're not quite sure how good they can become if Lucas, Green and Roe stay healthy, while Payne and Appling continue to come around. That can be a competitive team in the NCAA Tournament, even if Summers never shines. But if he does ... well, that's the type of rise Izzo has grown to expect at this time of year. And the type of rise his opponents fear.
Summers Felt You
Izzo says when Summers misses a few perimeter shots he usually lets it carry over to other areas of the game. He stops giving effort on defense and the boards and makes shaky decisions with the ball. He fogs out.
But not on this night. His shot wasn't falling, but he was undeterred and offered a more consistent effort than usual in other areas of the game. Izzo can use that.
"We are starting to understand that if you are a good defensive team, it can make up for some offensive woes," Izzo said.
When Summers looked to the bench for feedback, Izzo nodded in approval.
And then after the game, during Senior Night ceremonies, we even saw Summers smile.
"The crowd," Summers said, "was big-time. That was big-time."
He felt you, Spartan fans. You made his night special. And he can't wait for Thursday's practice and a chance to get back to work.
He still thinks he's going to explode with a big game, and come all the way back. Izzo keeps telling him that's going to be the case, even if Izzo may not believe it himself.
"He took some good shots," Izzo said of Summers. "At least he moved a little better and got to the hole a little bit. I think he will feel better about it and take some steps."
Even if Summers doesn't make jump shots, if Summers is showing up on the boards, making deflections, keeping possessions alive, finishing in transition, Izzo can use that as part of a hand of healthy face cards he has had only this one time all year. The first game of March.
Decades Ago By Lucas Standards
In preparing for this game, Izzo took a long look at Iowa's 72-52 victory over Michigan State on Feb. 2. Izzo said that was the worst his team has played in a few years. The Spartans were coming off a loss to Michigan and still coming to grips with the dismissal of popular Korie Lucious. The Michigan State team that played that night sucked. But that was decades ago, by Izzo and Lucas standards.
Izzo: "I told Kalin yesterday, 'Guess who the worst defender was at Iowa?'
"He said, 'Me.'
"I said, 'Hands down.'
"But he just couldn't move," Izzo explained. "It was right around that time that he started to get better and better.
"In Kalin's case, he has grown up so much in this last year. And he is playing his best basketball."
He has been scoring more than ever, lately, because, frankly, the team was dangerously low on offensive options, especially when the flu hit Green. In Michigan State's last three games, Lucas was the only Spartan in double figures. That's not going to work. That's what made Appling's big game an eyebrow-raiser.
"I think Kalin was so happy a wing guy was making some shots," Izzo said.
MSU's shortages on offense allowed (required) Lucas to play without a conscience in recent weeks. He has scored 27, 26, 27, 20, 24, 14, 25, 18 and 23 prior to the 17 he scored against Iowa. This was the first time in 11 games that Lucas didn't lead the team in scoring. That's a good thing. Lucas needs some help. Getting it from Appling was huge.
But make no mistake, this is Lucas's team. We thought it was becoming Green's team at the end of last season. But not yet. Lucas wants to see some things through.
Izzo was so frustrated with Lucas as a leader last season that he kicked him out of practice in late December. Now, Izzo is commonly seen calling Lucas aside, and walking with him, away from the team, arms around his shoulders, and Lucas's arm around Izzo, coach talking and captain listening, and then captain talking and coach listening. They exchange ideas, observations. Lucas has become more than a speedy playmaker. For the first time, Izzo trusts him as a lieutenant.
"He has communicated better," Izzo said. "He calls more stuff. He does more stuff. He has risen above and for that you have to be proud and I am absolutely proud, and I said when I wasn't. I just wanted the kid to be a special player. He has gotten better at it. Maybe down the stretch he will be great at it."
Lucas knelt down and kissed center court at Breslin while checking out for the last time, just like Respert did when he started the tradition in '95, then carried on by Cleaves in '00, then Hutson, Bell, Thomas, Anagonye, Ballinger and every senior since then, including Kebler and Summers on this night.
Some day, Lucas may be back, looking up in the rafters as his No. 1 jersey joins Respert, Cleaves, Peterson, Green, Skiles, Magic, Kelser, Vincent.
"His stats probably make him (worthy) some day of a banner hanging (of Lucas's retired jersey)," Izzo said. "But I think there are games to win yet. That's what I keep telling him."
This Was Good Therapy For Them
The locker room was warm, fuzzy, friendly, festive again. There were families in the lobby, coffee, cookies, cuddles. It's not like this after every game. Izzo called for extra stuff in the lobby, for the parents, the brothers, the sisters, for his MSU Basketball Family.
"You have to make sure you come to a game next year," a basketball secretary said to Summers' grandmother.
Izzo hugged everyone during Senior Night ceremonies, beginning with the graduating managers. Then Mike Kebler and his parents. And Summers, and his mother and uncle. And Lucas, and his parents. He hugged them all. Cried a little bit. But the longest, longest, longest hug of the night was when Durrell's mom locked into Izzo and wouldn't let go, and told him some things, and he nodded, and she nodded while Izzo told her some things, as their embrace continued. Izzo's attempts to get the best out of Summers has been an educational journey. And it's clear that Durrell's mother approves of all the tough love.
During video highlights of each senior, the crowd knew the dunk was coming. The one when Summers slammed on and over Stanley Robinson's head at the 2009 Final Four at Ford Field in Detroit. That dunk is remembered as the iconic moment of that victory, and perhaps the entire run to the National Title game. Summers was just a sophomore, rocking his home town, making grown fans cry.
"That gets my blood going when I see that," Summers said. "Every time I see it, it reminds me of what we've done, what I've done and what we can do."
Summers' teammates were happy for him on this night. They were happy for Lucas and Keebler. The highlight reels of Lucas and Summers reminded us of what was once good. Keebler's highlights reminded us of how this team has had to reinvent and become resourceful, to the point of taking on an underdog persona.
The players seemed to bond more tightly together on this night than at any time all year. The underclassmen congratulated the seniors, applauding them as their framed jerseys were unveiled, and admired their video highlights.
This was perfect for this team. They needed this. It was good therapy for them. They have swung and missed so many times this year, and been criticized, left for dead. The pressure has been immense. But on this night, they won big, executed well, had fun, hugged, smiled, and did it with family all around. They retreated back to the necessities, the important things, and they drew strength from it.
A year ago, Izzo tried to create some chemistry by allowing Lucas and Green to plan a sleepover at Breslin. They all claim it kind of worked. A splintered team of guys who had a tendency to go their separate ways when away from the arena were forced to hang out together all night. They came out of it with an unexplainably stronger sense of unity.
Senior Night breaks up the regular season monotony. It's a reminder to the players that at some point they are going to graduate from the program and be handed back to their parents, back into the real world. It is also a reminder that this season might be over in three games. Or it could last deep into March. It's up to this team, starting now, to prolong things. And a night like this makes them want to prolong things. This was fun. This was a team.
It was half town hall meeting and half pep rally when Izzo took the microphone and addressed the Breslin Center crowd at the end of Senior Night.
"As you all know, it's been a little different year," Izzo told the crowd, most of them standing. "But on the other side of the coin, these guys have helped me learn a lot. The parents of these players have probably done more for me than I did for their kids. And I know it's not easy to go through what many people consider an average season at 17-12, which a lot of people would love to have, and, we're not done yet!"
"If I told you how many times I've been pronounced dead over the last 16 years...(laughter)...but we keep foolin' 'em. We've got a big game Saturday and everybody knows it's a big game Saturday."
"And I'd just like to say in closing: They (the video) told you about all the wins. You know everybody gets frustrated with everybody throughout time, but you had an opportunity throughout 103 wins here by this senior class, 5th or 6th most in the history of the school you love so much. You've had a chance to watch guys take you to Final Fours and play in front of more people than (any players) have ever been played in front of in the entire existence of basketball. This class is 11-3 in the NCAA Tournament, better than any senior class in all of America right now."
Roaring applause.
"So to Mike, Durrell and Kalin, all I can say is: I'm gonna be on your ass for another month I hope, so that's just the way it's gonna be."
Durrell's mother turned and looked back at Durrell, judgingly, as if to say, "He means YOU!"
Durrell gave a sheepish look back to her, as if to say, "I know, mom. I know."
Izzo continued.
"But we're going to find a way to win on Saturday, get you back where you belong in the NCAA Tournament, and hopefully do some damage. Thank you very much."
Izzo's upbeat bravado met a thunderous ovation.
Being on the bubble in early March and having to scrape and claw their way into the NCAA Tournament might be better for this team's attention span and psychological state in preparation for The Big Dance, better than being, say, a third-place team in the Big Ten, just waiting around in the final weeks for the tournaments to start. MSU has to earn its way in, by performing and punching the clock, with the sun coming up.
"I do sense that there was a tournament feeling in the practices and the locker room," Izzo said. "Yesterday, I took them all upstairs to stand by the door and I said, 'It's March 1 and the sun is shining. March at Michigan State is an important month.' I could sense then that there was a feeling of, 'Yeah.' You know?"
Yes, we know.
"And even the former players started calling in March," Izzo said. "We don't have delusions of grandeur that we are going to make some real significant run but in a sick sort of way it's kind of nice to just be trying to get into the tournament. That used to be a real exciting time when we got in, around here. It's unfortunately not that way anymore, but this year it will be.
Join Comp on The Final Fourum message board."And you know what? If it is, and we do, I think there is going to be a sense of urgency and a sense of excitement. That's the only problem with winning a lot is you kind of don't give the players a chance to really enjoy everything. And I think they would really enjoy this. I'm excited about the opportunity."
Excited, once again, to coach a team.

Dash cam video of Mayor Michael Estes arrest released
Tue, 05 Nov 2013 20:31:33 GMT —
Traverse City Police released dash cam video on Tuesday, that was recorded in a second patrol car that pulled up the night that Traverse City Mayor Michael Estes was arrested for drunk driving.
Police say video from the first responding patrol car is unavailable because of an issue with the computer program, and that the officer's camera was not turned on.
The video shows the two officers on scene who appear to be talking with him and possibly conducting sobriety tests as he stands just outside of the shot.
One of the officers later escorts Estes to another car where he appears to be handcuffed.
The other officer on scene then looks inside the Mayor's truck for something, and later pulls out his glasses case and wallet.
The patrol cars leaves the scene, presumably with Estes riding in the first one.
Estes was arrested the night of October 23 and taken to the Grand Traverse County Jail where he blew .120 BAC. Estes was in court on Monday where he plead guilty to impaired driving. He will be back in court on December 30 for a sentencing hearing.

Took a chance on this guy despite his low post count and no refs because of the price.
Something could just be going on with him where he hasn't gotten to it yet. Kind of afraid I got scammed though. I filed a paypal dispute just to protect myself just incase.

With the April 15 tax day upon us, we have the recent 4-year anniversary of President Obama signing the misnamed Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), or Obamacare, Obamacare, Obamacare (to mock Nancy Pelosi mindlessly repeating "Affordable, affordable, affordable"). Tax day itself is a reminder that mentally robotic Democrats were in full spin mode trying to refute the idea that the now-Orwellian-phrased "Shared Responsibility Fee" was a tax.
Remember Obama's "Well, George (Stephenopoulos), the fact that you had to use a dictionary ?" in a shameless attempt to dispute that a penalty/fine written into the tax code and enforced by the IRS is a dictionary-defined "tax." To paraphrase the standard liars line: "Who you gonna believe, me or your lying dictionary." Irony and hypocrisy oozed over the Supreme Court ultimately calling it a "tax" in order to bestow their judicial blessing, when it was never called a "tax" in the 2,000+ pages of the Obamacare bill.
Witness the lemming-like way Democrats turned on a rhetorical dime to embrace the full weight of the tax code and the IRS to advertise, promote, threaten and guilt-trip young people into a program that undermines their own financial best interests. What's worse is that it inculcates the idea that when the government imposes a burden on you against your free will choices, but you can access other taxpayers' money to ease the burden, it's all ok. Just "spreading the wealth around," no harm done. Free money, hooray!
Let's recall that the overwhelming weight of public opinion has opposed Obamacare, from its legislative inception and passage, to its pathetic implementation, to current phony triumphalism. Don't take my word for it—go to RealClearPolitics.com and click on "Polls" tab. Click on "Health Care Law" on the far right to display 10 or so recent surveys of "Public Approval of Health Care Law." Not only is the current RCP average (as of 4/12) a dismal 12.5 percent Against/Oppose (39.8 For/52.3 Against), but also that gap has been in double digits almost continuously since November 2009.
Individual polls present arguable results—4+ years worth of polling shows an irrefutable, undeniable negative public opinion. The leftist ideologues believe that Republicans saying bad things about Obamacare causes unpopularity. Their attitude: "People don't know how good it is for them so we need to enforce Obamacare; eventually people will accept either the wisdom of their overlords, or political 'quiet desperation.'" That and "Just shut up!" It's their all-purpose dialogue-stopper on any issue where they claim the final word. You're being disagreeable, so?just shut up.
Regarding Obamacare polling, the "for/against" results are not changing (Rasmussen poll, 4/7: 58% of voters view it unfavorably; just 39% favorably). Some media pollsters have taken the approach that "it's the law so it's irrelevant that most Americans oppose it." They're now shifting opinion questions to "repeal or not," "leave as is, fix or repeal," and so on. To them, it's inevitable that another massive, redistributionist benefit program will end up as permanent and popular as Social Security or Medicare (Never mind that there are too few workers and taxes to sustain either program).
So, when the New York Times found 50 percent choosing "change the law" and only 42 percent for "repeal," Democrats crowed about apparently declining "repeal" sentiment. However, just 6 percent want to "leave it as written;" only 1 in 20 thinks it was a good law.
Remember, everything about Obamacare, from the endless lies, misrepresentations and broken promises, to the corrupt deal-making by Democrats to get votes, to the 20,000 pages of regulations (Obamacare: "the Secretary shall write rules"), to the disastrous web site rollout, to conscience-violating rules forcing Christian business-owners to pay for abortion-inducing drugs, to the fudged, phony, numbers touted by Obama as he and his media sycophants proclaim a "victory lap"—it is a failing Democrat program for which no Republican ever voted.
Surrounded by this kind of self-created "train wreck," there is no business that would tell the same folks who made the disaster to fix it. Obsolete failures disappear. Remember Edsel, DeLorean, New Coke, Pepsi Crystal, 8-tracks, Betamax, floppy disks or Coors Spring Water? How about that senior program, the "Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act of 1988" with new taxes on Medicare recipients? It was passed, signed and implemented with great Democrat hubris until angry silver haired protesters started pounding on the cars carrying Democrats like Dan Rostenkowski—that turkey got repealed in full the very next year.
Etched in stone? More like Exhibit A in the "Epic Fail" wing of the Big Gov Museum.
Media bias note: AP reporter Juliet Williams connected Democrat dots in "Scandals plague California capital, Dems succumb to 'dirty dealings" (3/28 DN). However, the party ID of state Sen. Leland Yee, "Democrat," was not in either Mercury News writer Howard Mintz's ("Yee pleads not guilty to gun trafficking, corruption charges," 4/9 DN), or AP reporter Paul Elias' ("Yee's lawyer questions FBI probe," 4/1 DN) story; certainly not the fact that an anti-gun Democrat was arrested for attempted gun trafficking.

Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey Presents MEASURE FOR MEASURE, 8/8-26
Shakespeare once again takes center stage at The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey's Kirby Theatre with the Bard's Measure for Measure this August. The show comes to life for a 3-week run only.
Measure for Measure begins on August 8th with several discounted Preview performances. The production continues through August 26th at The Theatre's Main Stage - the intimate F.M. Kirby Shakespeare Theatre. Performances are Tuesday through Sunday evenings, and Saturday and Sundays at 2 p.m. For tickets or for more information, call the box office at 973-408-5600 or visit www.ShakespeareNJ.org. The F.M. Kirby Shakespeare Theatre is located at 36 Madison Avenue (at Lancaster Road), in Madison.
This mercurial masterpiece could have been written just yesterday. Shakespeare's dark comedy- a provocative mix of humor and intrigue - is an age-old tale of scandal, abuse of power and what happens when repression and profligacy get equally out of balance. It is a story for all times and its contemporary relevance is provocative and palpable.
Shakespeare Theatre Artistic Director Bonnie J. Monte directs a cast of eighteen, including many veteran company members.

Why See The Shins?
Heartworms Tour
Led by James Mercer, Portland indie king The Shins got their big break when music from their debut record was featured in Zach Braff's directorial debut Garden State. While the movie's insistence that the band's 'New Slang' will change your life has become something of eye-roll inducing quote, The Shins themselves went from strength to strength, and have been producing breezy, whip-smart indie rock ever since. With only Mercer remaining from the original line-up, The Shins gifted the world their latest in 2017 in Heartworms, a candid and playful effort that added a more noticeable synth edge to the mix.
Catch The Shins playing cuts from throughout their enviable back catalogue, from 'Caring is Creepy' through to 'The Fear', when they play Frederik Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids, MI, Closed July 27, 2017.
