Michael Kunzelman / The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — A University of California-Berkeley engineer who played a prominent role in investigating levee breeches in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina is scheduled to be the first witness Tuesday at a trial involving another Gulf Coast catastrophe: the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history.
Oil can be seen spreading in the Gulf of Mexico more than 50 miles southeast of Louisiana, as a large plume of smoke rises from fires on BP's Deepwater Horizon offshore oil rig on April 21, 2010.
The Associated Press
U.S. Fish and Wildlife biologist Kayla Dibenedetto attempts to catch a brown pelican covered with oil spilled as a result of the rig explosion, at Grand Isle, La., on June 5, 2010.
The Associated Press
Robert Bea, an expert witness for the plaintiffs who sued BP PLC and other companies involved in the Deepwater Horizon disaster, will share his theories about what caused BP's Macondo well to blow out on April 20, 2010, provoking an explosion on the Horizon rig that killed 11 workers and spewed an estimated 172 millions of gallons of crude into the Gulf.
Bea's testimony was scheduled for the second day of a civil trial that could result in the oil company and its partners being forced to pay tens of billions of dollars more in damages. The case went to trial Monday after attempts to reach an 11th-hour settlement failed.
The second witness slated to appear on the stand is Lamar McKay, president of BP America. The highest-ranking executive of BP scheduled to testify in the courtroom, McKay is likely to discuss corporate decisions that were made throughout the duration of the disaster. It was not clear if there would be time for his testimony Tuesday, however. Other BP officials were expected to give videotaped testimony.
In pretrial depositions and in an expert report, Bea argued along with another consultant that BP showed a disregard for safety throughout the company and was reckless in its actions — the same arguments made in opening statements Monday by attorneys for the U.S. government and individuals and businesses hurt by the spill.
Attorneys for BP tried to block the testimony of Bea, whom they accused of analyzing documents and evidence "spoon-fed" to him by plaintiffs lawyers. BP accused Bea and the other expert, William Gale, a California-based fire and explosion investigator and consultant, of ignoring the "safety culture of the other parties" involved in the spill, in particular Transocean Ltd., the drilling company running operations aboard the Deepwater Horizon.
Gale does not appear on a list of potential witnesses to be called during the trial.
Just last year, Bea testified for plaintiffs who sued the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers over broken levees in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina.
In opening statements Monday, U.S. Justice Department attorney Mike Underhill said the catastrophe resulted from BP's "culture of corporate recklessness."
"The evidence will show that BP put profits before people, profits before safety and profits before the environment," Underhill said. "Despite BP's attempts to shift the blame to other parties, by far the primary fault for this disaster belongs to BP."
BP attorney Mike Brock acknowledged that the oil company made mistakes. But he accused Transocean of failing to properly maintain the rig's blowout preventer, which had a dead battery, and he claimed cement contractor Halliburton used a "bad slurry" that failed to prevent oil and gas from traveling up the well.
BP has already pleaded guilty to manslaughter and other criminal charges and has racked up more than $24 billion in spill-related expenses, including cleanup costs, compensation for businesses and individuals, and $4 billion in criminal penalties.
But the federal government, Gulf Coast states and individuals and businesses hope to convince a federal judge that the company and its partners in the ill-fated drilling project are liable for much more in civil damages under the Clean Water Act and other environmental regulations.

It's an award that any NFL player would be proud of, but none would choose to endure.
Comeback player of the year.
The field is especially crowded this season, with an inordinate number of standout players returning from season-ending injuries, the type of infirmities that in another era would have terminated a career.
There's Peyton Manning, of course, the Denver Broncos quarterback who sat out his final season with the Indianapolis Colts and underwent four neck procedures. Five of the last six players to receive the award were quarterbacks — Chad Pennington (twice), Tom Brady, Michael Vick and Matthew Stafford.
But just as impressive is the unbelievably quick return of Minnesota running back Adrian Peterson, who, in a game last Christmas Eve, suffered torn anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his knee. Eleven months later, he leads the NFL with 1,236 yards rushing — 172 more than second-place Arian Foster of Houston.
Baltimore linebacker Terrell Suggs, last season's defensive player of the year, went down because of a partially torn Achilles' tendon while playing a basketball game in late April. Another player might have needed a full year to recover. Suggs was back by mid-October, and seven plays into his return he sacked Houston's Matt Schaub.
"We right now have a collection of some of the NFL's best ever who are coming back from potentially career-ending injuries," said sports surgeon Neal ElAttrache, who four years ago rebuilt the shredded knee of New England's Brady. "People know their names. If we go down the roster of guys who have gotten injured, we're going to find a lot of guys that were injured at the same time as these guys, were operated on at the same time as these guys, that are not at the level that these guys are and are not coming back as quickly."
Kansas City's Jamaal Charles, coming off a serious knee injury, is ranked eighth in rushing. Carolina linebacker Thomas Davis has broken new ground by becoming the first player to return from three ACL reconstructions on the same knee.
Another high-profile comeback is in the pipeline. Baltimore's Ray Lewis, a future Hall of Fame member, reportedly could be ready to return from a torn triceps in mid-December when the Ravens play Manning and the Broncos. Lewis, 37, was injured in a Week 6 win over Dallas, and has spent most of his time since rehabbing in Florida. Initially expected to miss the rest of the season, Lewis began working out at the team's facility this week.
"If he gets out to practice, it would be pretty amazing," Ravens running back Ray Rice told reporters this week. "The guy, to me, is my modern-day Superman. … Why is he coming back? People ask that question all the time. He's coming back because he firmly believes that this is a team that can go ahead and do it. He does it for us. He's not doing it for the stats. He's not doing it for the fame. He's doing it solely because he loves the Ravens, he loves his teammates [and] he loves this organization."
ElAttrache, of the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic in Los Angeles, said there are many reasons why elite athletes are able to make such rapid recoveries from devastating injuries, and not all of them have to do with ever-improving surgical and rehabilitation techniques.
"What we've seen when we're looking at these studies in the NFL is that All-Pros come back more predictably and quicker than other players," he said. "One of the reasons you can't overlook is the sport is willing to wait for an All-Pro to come back.
"Look at Peyton Manning's injury. You're not going to get the teams taking a chance or waiting for that kind of recovery on a bubble quarterback. So a guy who had the same injury as Peyton Manning might not have had the chance to show what he could do coming back."
The fact that a player is elite in the first place, ElAttrache said, speaks to his physical abilities — which include healing quickly — as well as his focus and determination to get back up to speed.
Any time an NFL player recovers far more quickly than the norm, the situation raises a red flag: Were performance-enhancing drugs involved? Did he skirt the rules to get back on the field quicker?
"Knowing the way that testing is currently performed, I don't believe any of these cases are performance-enhanced," said ElAttrache, a member of the NFL Physicians Society. "It would have to be wide-ranging conspiracy for [the players] to feel that they could get away with it."
Peterson's case is so remarkable it almost defies explanation. That he was able to return for this season was impressive but not unheard of (the typical recovery period for that type of knee reconstruction is six to nine months). But it's the level to which he has returned that has experts rubbing their eyes.
"Statistically, he should not be up to 80% to 90% of his peak performance until at least his second season back," ElAttrache said. "What we would not have expected is that he would be vying for one of the best years of his career."
Dr. James Andrews performed the surgery on Peterson, then referred him to Russ Paine, a physical therapist in Houston who has worked with professional athletes for decades.
"To come back at the professional level and be a skill player — pivot, cut, twist with confidence — is very special," Paine said. "When you get hurt, you're either better than you were, or worse than you were. You're never the same.

Final laugh in Kookaburra copyright case?
4 April 2011
The Full Court of the Federal Court has rejected the appeal from an earlier decision that found Men At Work's hit song Down Under infringed the copyright in the popular folk tune Kookaburra Sits in the Old Gum Tree. EMI's liability for the authorisation of infringement is yet to be determined. Partner Miriam Stiel and Law Graduate Tracy Lu report on this latest decisionRead More

Optical 88 v. Optical 88
13 January 2011
A recent Federal Court decision was a pyrrhic victory for the applicant, whose success in establishing that the respondent's marks were deceptively similar to its registered trade marks was overridden by a number of defences and a successful action by the respondent to have the trade marks removed for non-use. Partner Tim Golder and Lawyer Nadia Guadagno look at a case which is significant as it held that a trade mark may be infringed by taking only an essential element of the mark, and that 'use' of a trade mark may be established by a relatively small amount of promotional activityRead More

Full Court rules White and Yellow Pages not 'original literary works'
17 December 2010
In a landmark copyright decision, the Full Federal Court has upheld a decision that copyright in both the White Pages and the Yellow Pages directories was not made out because computer programs, rather than human authors, had done the crucial work of arranging the information and producing the particular form of its expression. Partner Jackie O'Brien and Law Graduate Henry Fraser report.Read More

Thankyou for your civil explanation Paul. It's a pretty rare thing when others seem to inadvertantly detect a note of negativity in a message.
Thankyou for your civil explanation Paul. [/quote]
Well, if the "grownups" don't occasionally make a stab at civility...? [;)]
Look, I'm not saying the flawed perspective in the wake of the Williams sisters produced nothing. At the USO, you saw that Donald Young from Atlanta. Impressive. By and large, however, our young black players remain no less mediocre than our young white players. You see this over and over in the tournaments.
The problem in North American tennis isn't so much racist as it's classist. When tennis globalzied, the new powers handled things differently. For example, bla can probably tell us about those South American clubs where they play both tennis and soccer. In the States, OTOH, every school may have a tennis court but the sport continues to be strangled by the same insular country club paradigm that it always suffered, IMO.
But y'know, the race question started me thinking: there were a number of Africans wound up in Russia during the Soviet times. And actually a few more American expats than we ever admitted. (Gregory Hines's character in White Nights was not at all fanciful.) I wish that one of their black Russian daughters/granddaughters would excell at tennis--play Fed Cup and everything. That would be so cool. lol
[H] Paul
Heh-heh. Old habits.
Wish I could mail you a court to Uruguay from Texas. Yeah, most high schools here have them, but they are used less than they should be. Texas is mostly "Friday Night Lights" (American) football territory. (The barrio kids are maybe more into basketball.)
However, university area courts and public courts in university towns are heavily used, so some are learning to play on their own. We could benefit from something more like the sports clubs, though.

Hi all,
I have a 2G iPhone with 2.2 fw. I use Mysms as my DEFAULT SMS application and since I wasnt using the built-in 'Text' Application by apple, I had hidden it with poof.
Yesterday, all I did was swipe on the upper part, and on sbsettings 'more info', went to poof, and swiped 'Text' to ON position. At that very moment, my iPhone hanged. Then I did a restart by holding Home + Power. iPHone took hell lot of time to restart and finally got a Side to Emergency screen.
I still have signal, my lock calendar is working. I also use StatusNotifier and its also working.
Please provide me with a solution, I dont wanna restore. I havent synced since a lot of time. Dont wanna lose my data.
[my 5 cents ... i think i need to find out somehow to ON the wifi and SSH and then via SSH, someone can suggest how to revert to OFF position of my Text application again]
P.S. - iTunes says my SIM card is not supported !!!! But i still have signal as said above

If that 2 pole breaker had a 1000 watt load on each pole of the breaker, the 2 loads would wind up being in series with each other fed by 240 volts, and the neutral would be handling little, if any current.
If one breaker had 1000 watt load on it, and the other pole of that breaker had a 250 watt load on it, then the neutral would be carrying the current for 750 watts at 120 volts 6.25 amps. If the 250 watt load was disconnected, then the Neutral would be carrying the full 1000 watt current at 120 volts 8.33 amps
I am definitely not a pro plumber, but I am a pro crastinator
That is because the WH is a 240v device. If it also needed 120v for something, it would also need a neutral to create a 120v source.
Correct. The timer and such usually take 120v. This is true of many 240v circuits (such as a range). Pure 240v circuits (like a WH) only need the 2 hots and a ground.
I am definitely not a pro plumber, but I am a pro crastinator
most likely using 10/3 kleenex without ground. The new dryers (and ranges) are supposed to be wired with nn/3 (nn= proper sized conductors) plus ground kleenex and a 4 prong plug and receptacle.
The ground on the old stuff was added to the frame of the dryer by the installer to a "safe" (not really) water pipe nearby
I am definitely not a pro plumber, but I am a pro crastinator
I think I'm ready to wire YOUR house now.....LOL Just kidding thanks for the tips.
My house was built in 2000. I'll be removing my panel cover and making sure any multibranch circuit is done with a double pole breaker.

America is in the dark ages with electricity. Europe, even Africa wires all for 240V and the timers and controls [DUH!] in appliances are built for 240V. Now you are outlet wiring with 16 and 18 gauge wire and don't need a neutral.
When copper was cheap and the US made it all, the copper lobby won. We all lost.
Notice that at least the Americans are smart enough to sell electric water heater timers that have a [MAGIC!] clock that runs on 240V, so you need not pull in another totally unneeded wire. Imagine the audacity of making a 240V lightbulb!
I have a vague memory from the late '60's when I lived on an airforce base in Britain. I was very young. I seem to remember a TV show explaining the workings of a GFI outlet and saying that they would becoming a standard. But it could have been a few years later in the states.
IN a perfectly balanced split feed, the neutral is not carrying any current. It is "alternating current" and the two lines are 180 degrees out of phase, so when one's black wire is "+" the other's is "-" so they cancel each other out. The neutral takes care of any imbalance.

I have heard, but do not know if it is fact, that homes in Australia only have a single 240 volt wire coming into the houses. The return to the generator is done with a "ground connection" into the earth.

I Corinthians is a letter about crossroads. As a city, Corinth was at a crossroads. The capital city of Rome's Achia province, it was located right on the main land route between East and West. It was a hub for several major sea routes. Corinth was a coming together of people and commerce, and was known for both its intellectual and material opulence.
That cultural reality made for some challenges as a fledgling church struggled to forge an identity in such an environment. At the point when Paul wrote this letter to the church at Corinth, they were at a crossroads. Would they get stuck into their identity as a collective bound together to Christ and each other? Or would they give up in the face of the tall task of sustaining a community that was in many ways counter-cultural?
These are questions resonant for Sterling College today. This semester we will explore what it looks like to be bound to the vision of our institution's Christ-centeredness. We will consider what it looks like for us to grow in our faithfulness to Christ and our faithfulness to each other. We will look to do the hard work of staying alert, standing firm in our faith, and developing strong bonds. And we will try to discern how we can live all of that out in love.

360-FAAR (Firewall Analysis Audit and Repair) is an offline, command line, Perl firewall policy manipulation tool to filter, compare to logs, merge, translate, and output firewall commands for new policies, in Checkpoint dbedit, Cisco ASA, or ScreenOS commands. It is all contained in one file. It can read policy and logs for: Checkpoint FW1 (in odumper.csv / logexport format), Netscreen ScreenOS (in get config / syslog format), and Cisco ASA (show run / syslog format). It uses both inclusive and exclusive CIDR and text filters, permitting you to split large policies into smaller ones for virutalization at the same time as removing unused connectivity. It supports policy to log association, object translation, rulebase reordering and simplification, rule moves, and duplicate matching automatically. It allows you to seamlessly move rules to where you need them. 'print' mode creates a spreadsheet for your audit needs with one command.

a2b invokes conversion tools in sequence to convert files from one type to another, possibly performing some extra processing along the way. Itis a wrapper for many programs like gif2png, latex2html, netpbm, mencoder, ffmpeg, oggenc, etc., that can convert content from one type to another. It can covert text, documents, images, audio, and video and more. Some examples: a2b test.mp3 test.ogg; mencoder_opts="-ss 60 -endpos 10" a2b video.avi clip.flv; a2b -g=subtitles dvd://8 movie.sub; a2b -q http://sam.nipl.net/ sam.aac. That last example downloads the author's Web page, converts it to text with lynx -dump, speaks the text with flite or espeak, and converts the audio file to AAC with faac.

Groupon's performance isn't nearly as bad as its stock suggests, Business Insider CEO Henry Blodget said Wednesday on CNBC.
"The real problem in the business right now is Europe. It's imploding," he said on "Fast Money." "Now the whole thing is collapsing, but the U.S. is doing OK. So the core business is doing all right."
At a Business Insider conference, Groupon CEO Andrew Mason defended his leadership of the company, touting the company's strong sales growth and positive balance sheet.
Blodget supported those arguments.
"This is a 3-year-old company. It's doing $2½ billion of revenues and $6 billion of total gross merchandise sales, and it's profitable," he said. "That's not a disaster."
(Read More: Would a Groupon CEO Exit Help the Stock?)
Groupon also broke out of the daily deals field and "killed" its competitors, he added.
Blodget also saw potential in Yahoo, his former employer.
"Yahoo has a huge asset, which is 700 million people," he said. "They should be able to build a good business out of that."
Blodget also sounded optimistic about Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer.
(Read More: Ross Levinsohn: Mobile Could Be Huge for Yahoo)
"I hope with Marissa at the helm — she's doing a great job so far — we can build value in that business," he said.
Facebook could be a turnaround story, following its foundering stock action, Blodget said.
"The new mobile ads seem to be working,"he said, cautioning that shares were trading upward of 40 times earnings. "I still think the stock is expensive."

Negative Experience
Difficult Interview
I applied through a recruiter and the process took 2 weeks - interviewed at Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in September 2008.
Interview Details The recruiting firm called and asked me for a detailed resume with salary history. I was reluctant to give the salary history but they pressured me to do so. After a lengthly phone interview with the recruiter I was scheduled for an in-person interview with a staff person from the national office. She was in town for one day to do all her interviews. She described the former candidate as having "bad boundaries". When I inquired about what that meant, she said they were "too close" to their Board members. She said she had to "straighten out" the problems the former candidate had caused. I asked how willing she felt the Board members would be to follow a new leadership style or strategy. She made it clear that she would be very "hands on" in seting any future strategy. Pay was good but I left feeling the next candidate would face a rocky road between "reporting up" and seeking to bring a new vision to the organization.

Lovely Prints by Freya
We stumbled upon Freya's work on Tea For Joy.
(Images: Freya)
5 Comments
very cute.
Her stuff is nice, but almost freakishly in the same tone and colour scheme as Matte Stephens. The similarities are a little too striking for my tastes. When I saw that first print, I thought it was a new work of his.
i think they are adorable, tinged with a bit of melancholy that's hard to put my finger on. They are sweet but in a sad sort of way...? In any case they are lovely.
King of Arcadia, I thought the same thing. Although, looking at them more closely, I guess the over all tone is different, though the colors and illustration style are very, very close.
You're right nikki. And a quality of loneliness. Poor dear. I'm almost in tears.

About EURAF
EURAF - European Agroforestry Federation The European Agroforestry Federation (EURAF) aims at promoting the use of trees on farms as well as any kind of silvopastoralism throughout the different environmental regions of Europe. EURAF has about 250 members from 18 different European countries.
Agroforestry in Europe
Agroforestry is the integration of trees, crops and/or livestock on the same area of land. Trees can be inside parcels or on the boundaries (hedges). Agroforestry can be applied to all agricultural systems, in all parts of Europe. Agroforestry systems are obtained by planting trees on agricultural land or introducing agriculture in existing woodland (eg silvopasture). Europe has a unique heritage of traditional agroforestry systems with a high environmental and cultural value, and Europe has a high potential for innovative modern agroforestry systems developed by research centers across Europe during the last two decades.
Has the Common Agricultural Policy been killing agroforestry?
Agroforestry practices have been overlooked by previous CAP schemes, resulting in billions of trees being destroyed across Europe. Recently, incentives for establishing AF plots have been introduced, but conflicts between pillar 1 and pillar 2 rules have prevented European farmers to establish or maintain agroforestry systems.
Agroforestry – a sustainable land use for the future of Europe
Agroforestry is a beneficial system leading to a low carbon and high biomass productive agriculture. It provides many ecosystem services while maintaining high productivity for the farmer. It is a win-win option for farmers and conservationists. Specific ecosystem services include carbon lock up, flood mitigation, reduction of diffuse pollution and soil erosion, protection of crops and livestock against climatic hazards due to climate change, synergetic production of crops and tree products, integrated habitat network and high biodiversity value, optimized crop protection due to self-regulation of pests and diseases in mosaic environments, landscape amenities supporting tourism and wild game.
Agroforestry in the next Common Agricultural Policy: our proposals in short
Agroforestry contributes to greening the CAP. Read detailed proposals.
Pillar 1
Agroforestry systems should be supported under Pillar 1 payments as an eligible land use. Member states will be responsible for establishing minimum and maximum tree numbers or cover/ha to meet local specificities (including hedges width). This will simplify monitoring and controls (no more need to exclude rural trees from Pillar 1 payments). Agroforestry could be an eligible land use under the proposed ecological focus areas. A simple system to calculate the environmental benefits of agroforestry systems on a farm is available and could be used in the first pillar as an eco-conditionality criterion.
Pillar 2
Pillar 2 payments should support the establishment of Agroforestry systems on both agricultural and woody land (in compliance with legal rules for land and forest protection). Maintenance costs of newly planted agroforestry systems should be covered for a period of 10 years. Christian Dupraz, president of EURAF contact: dupraz AT supagro DOT inra DOT fr

From German Raiders of the South Seas, by Robin Bromby (Highgate, 2012), Kindle Loc. 409-425:
But colonies were attractive for one other important reason. Germany needed new markets if it was to combat unemployment at home. Emigration was a major concern: between 1871 and 1881, some 800,000 people left the newly united Germany; taking the period 1887 to 1906, the figure grows to over one million. But here was the rub for Germany: almost all of those emigrants went to the United States. By contrast, while many British went to America, large numbers also chose Canada, New Zealand, South Africa and Australia; in other words, Britain 'kept' the bulk of its emigrants within its empire, thereby enlarging its own export markets and simultaneously increasing the strength of that Empire. For the Germans, by contrast, their emigrants were lost forever.
Chancellor Bismarck had previously frustrated the colonial lobby simply because he did not want to antagonise Britain or France; anyway, colonies were not part of his design for Germany's future. In 1884, however, he did a volte-face and approved the annexation of five territories: New Guinea (including New Britain, New Ireland and part of the Solomon Islands), South-West Africa, Togoland, the Cameroons and Tanganyika. The Germans were now convinced territories — and a fleet to protect their trade lines — had become a necessity. The phobia that Britain and other foreign competitors would try to destroy that trade was accentuated by ever-increasing German unemployment in the last decades of the century.
But then, as economic conditions improved after 1900, emigration from Germany slowed to a trickle. Moreover, getting immigrants interested in the new German colonies was not easy: there were no temperate ones with large swathes of potential farmland, or anything vaguely approaching the appeal of the Cape Colony, New Zealand, Canada or the Australian colonies. The Cameroons and Togoland were seen as tropical hellholes, and South-West Africa was unsuited to farming because so much of it was arid. By 1913, this entire empire was home to just 23,500 Germans, and many of those were serving in the administrations, army or police forces rather than as people making a new home. This lack of critical mass of Europeans in the German colonies also meant these territories never became a meaningful market for manufactured goods from the home country.
