How to Explain to a Candidate Why They Didn't Get the Job Offer
Sometimes when you see a job posting, you get excited thinking, believing that you can do this job. Sometimes a second sober thought comes along and you realize that you cannot do this job well; you wouldn't even like doing the job! Sometimes that second sober thought never comes along; sometimes that's good. It takes courage to apply for a job. It means that you are saying to the world: "Here I am. Come and look at me. Inspect me. Measure me. Evaluate me. Please find me worthwhile. Please find me acceptable. Please don't reject me."
And when you are on the other side of the table – measuring, evaluating, inspecting – it is easy to forget when it was not you being interviewed and how that feels. It is easy to just focus on the immediate – I need to find the right candidate to get this work done. I want the perfect candidate who will stay forever and not give me any grief. They will show up for work on time, every time. They will do the job that needs to be done, without complaint.
It is easy to be blind to our biases, to believe that our way is the right way, to see the faults, the blemishes, the defects of the candidates, especially the ones who are very different from us. This is when we must see each and every candidate as a person, as an individual, not as a "thing" on a shelf at Wal-mart, as we quickly walk by and barely give a glance.
How Do You Figure Out Who Gets the Job?
Begin with the end in mind. You want each and every one of your employees to be happy with their work. You want to them to be in a job that perhaps stretches them a little bit, but definitely one where they are being successful. If they are enjoying success in the job they are more likely to be ready for the next challenge. If they are happy at work, they are more likely to be productive – at home and at work. They are more likely to deliver better customer service. They are more likely to go home and contribute to their family and community life. They are more likely to be physically and mentally healthier.
On paper, fully describe the skills, abilities, knowledge and behaviours – the technical competencies and the typical behaviours – that the candidate must have for success. Go towards the positive, but also give some thought to the negative, the nightmare employee. Fully describe what you want and then figure out the best way to test for it. Take into consideration the organizational culture, the personalities of the people this candidate will work with and so on. This provides the basis for the job description as well as the advertisement/posting.
When it comes time to award a job, it must be with every indication, every confidence that this particular candidate will enjoy success. And if they are not quite ready for the job, then awarding them the job must be with every assurance that they will be supported with training and coaching until they are capable of being successful.
Don't you wish you had a crystal ball, or a special pair of glasses that would let you see into the future? A crystal ball that would let you see this employee smiling from ear to ear while they are at work; you can see the employee growing and learning so that they can provide even better services and results for their clients; and one that would let you see the employee's frustration and despair when they are not being successful because they just don't have the required skills. Alas we don't, and the recruitment and selection process is never a perfect science.
We ask interview questions. We test our candidates. We verify the information they give. We do our best to be open minded. We do our best to listen to them. We do our best to listen to each other. Sometimes we make good decisions; sometimes we fail miserably. All we can do is our best. All we can do is plan a good, solid selection process and work the plan. All we can do is make the decision to hire based on logical, objective criteria as well as our intuition, our values and our knowledge of the job, and the work environment. We make the decision to the best of our ability. We decide that this is the best candidate. We accept the consequences of our decision and learn from them.
To those who didn't get the job try saying: "I am calling to tell you about the results of the X job/competition. I don't have good news for you. The job has been awarded to a candidate who we think is the best fit. Thank you for meeting with us. It was nice getting to know you. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors." Don't ask them how they are doing. Don't comment about the weather. Tell them why you are calling. Do your best to give them a positive experience but only say things that you mean. Tell them you'd like them to apply for other job postings – if you mean it. Tell them it was a difficult decision – if you mean it. Be as nice/sympathetic/kind as you can possibly be.
And if they ask for a debrief of the selection process, do your best to give them that gift. Explain fully the technical and behavioural competencies that someone will need to be successful in the job and why. Show them where these were described in the posting. Help them understand how and why they were tested for them. Explain or describe the standard/answer the panel was looking for. Remind them of the answer they gave. Help them understand "how" they measured up. Help them understand that perhaps they dodged a bullet – not getting a job that they possibly would not be successful in. There is something worse than being unemployed. It is hating your job because you feel like a failure. Even worse is when you are a failure because you misrepresented yourself or someone did you a disservice by giving you a job that was not suited to you
Do not engage in arguments or negotiation of their scores. It was the panel's job to score the candidates. The candidate's job was to respond to the testing, to do their best. The purpose of this exercise is to help the candidate see and hear what the panel heard and saw when they were scoring. You are doing this so that they can learn what they need to do differently. They have asked for feedback, and the competition is over, done. It is time for them to accept their failure, learn from it and move on.
You deliver the "bad" news with firm confidence because you are convinced that the selection process was the best it could be; the scoring was the best it could be. With this in mind there is no need to apologize for the outcome. You deliver it with kindness because it is bad news for the candidate. The good news is that they have had the opportunity to learn from this process.

United States District Court, D. Nevada
November 8, 2017
JOHN E. ASHCRAFT, Plaintiff(s),v.WELK RESORT GROUP, CORP, et al., Defendant(s).
J. Koppe United States Magistrate Judge
30(e) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provides a
mechanism by which a deponent may review her testimony and
make changes to it. In 2005, the Ninth Circuit addressed the
permissible scope of such changes, explaining that they may
include "corrective, and not contradictory,
changes." Hambleton Bros. Lumber Co. v. Balkin
Enterps., Inc., 397 F.3d 1217 (9th Cir. 2005). Judges
within this District have not yet been tasked with applying
this standard. Moreover, although other district courts
within the Ninth Circuit have had the opportunity to do so,
they have struggled to interpret and apply this standard in a
uniform manner. Given these circumstances and the
parties' significantly different views of governing law,
the Court will provide a fulsome explanation of its
understanding of the permissible scope of Rule 30(e) changes.
before the Court is Plaintiff's motion to strike
Defendant Experian's changes to the transcript of its
Rule 30(b)(6) deposition. Docket No. 31. Experian filed a
response in opposition, and Plaintiff filed a reply. Docket
Nos. 35, 42. The Court held a hearing on the motion on
September 25, 2017. Docket No. 61; see also Docket
No. 63 (hearing transcript).
noted above, the instant dispute arises out of Experian's
Rule 30(b)(6) deposition. Anna Simmons appeared as
Experian's Rule 30(b)(6) deponent. See Depo. Tr.
at 6 (Docket No. 32-1). Ms. Simmons has been employed by
Experian for roughly 15 years. See, e.g., Hearing
Tr. at 60. Ms. Simmons has been deposed several times
previously, Depo. Tr. at 6-7, and has acted as a Rule
30(b)(6) deponent for Experian for several years,
id. at 8. Indeed, Ms. Simmons has been deposed in
that capacity by Plaintiff's counsel in several other
cases. See Id. at 9-10. At the deposition in this
case, Ms. Simmons indicated that she was prepared to testify
as a Rule 30(b)(6) deponent in a manner that binds Experian.
Id. at 13-14.
deposition of Experian vis-à-vis Ms. Simmons
proceeded. Experian's attorney did not conduct
cross-examination of Ms. Simmons following completion of
questioning by Plaintiff's counsel. See, e.g.,
id. at 255. After the deposition, Experian submitted
25 changes to Ms. Simmons' testimony, 17 of which are
currently in dispute. See Mot. at 7-10; see
also Docket No. 31-2 at 4-5. Some of the disputed
changes seek to entirely remove portions of Ms. Simmons'
testimony. See Id. at 9. Some of the disputed
changes seek to directly contradict Ms. Simmons'
testimony, including changing answers from "yes"
to "no, " or vice versa, or dropping a
"not" from her answer. Id. at 8-10.
Still other disputed changes attempt to alter Ms.
Simmons' testimony about Experian's
"policy" to testimony about what Experian does
"in some circumstances." Id. at 8-9. The
reasons stated for the changes are (1) the
"non-responsive" nature of Ms. Simmons'
answers and (2) the need to provide "accuracy"
and/or "clarification." Id. at 8-10 With
respect to at least one change, Experian further explains
that the change was made upon "further research"
following the deposition. Id. at 8. This
"further research" appears to have involved only
the review of documents already produced in this litigation.
Docket No. 31-4 at 2-3.
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provide that, "[o]n
request by the deponent or a party before the deposition is
completed, the deponent must be allowed 30 days after being
notified by the officer that the transcript or recording is
available in which: (A) to review the transcript or
recording; and (B) if there are changes in form or substance,
to sign a statement listing the changes and the reasons for
making them." Fed.R.Civ.P. 30(e)(1).
the text of Rule 30(e) provides that changes may be "in
form or substance" and indicates that
"reasons" must be identified for making those
changes, the Rule itself does not otherwise address the
proper scope of changes allowed and the type of reasons that
are sufficient to make changes. The Ninth Circuit has had one
occasion to address those issues:
A statement of reasons explaining corrections is an important
component of errata submitted pursuant to FRCP 30(e), because
the statement permits an assessment concerning whether the
alterations have a legitimate purpose. The magistrate judge
was troubled by the deposition corrections' seemingly
tactical timing-the corrections were submitted only after
Ballinger's motion for summary judgment was filed-and by
their extensive nature. The absence of any stated reasons for
the changes supports the magistrate judge's concern that
the "corrections" were not corrections at all,
but rather purposeful rewrites tailored to manufacture an
issue of material fact regarding Ballinger and to avoid a
summary judgment ruling in his favor. Under our
"sham" affidavit rule, "a party cannot
create an issue of fact by an affidavit contradicting his
prior deposition testimony." Kennedy v. Allied Mut.
Ins. Co., 952 F.2d 262, 266 (9th Cir.1991). We think
this type of "sham" correction is akin to a
"sham" affidavit. While the language of FRCP
30(e) permits corrections "in form or substance,
" this permission does not properly include changes
offered solely to create a material factual dispute in a
tactical attempt to evade an unfavorable summary judgment.
Cf. Combs v. Rockwell Int'l Corp., 927 F.2d 486,
488-89 (9th Cir.1991) (dismissing with prejudice and granting
Rule 11 sanctions against a party and its counsel because the
attorney, in an effort to avoid summary judgment, made
substantive changes to the party's deposition testimony
in violation of FRCP 30(e)). The Tenth and Seventh Circuits
have interpreted FRCP 30(e) similarly. See, e.g., Burns
v. Bd. of County Comm'rs, 330 F.3d 1275, 1281-82
(10th Cir.2003) ("We see no reason to treat Rule 30(e)
corrections differently than affidavits, and we hold that
Burns's attempt to amend his deposition testimony must be
evaluated under [the sham affidavit doctrine].");
accord Garcia v. Pueblo Country Club, 299 F.3d 1233,
1242 n. 5 (10th Cir.2002) ("'The Rule cannot be
interpreted to allow one to alter what was said under oath.
If that were the case, one could merely answer the questions
with no thought at all then return home and plan artful
responses. Depositions differ from interrogatories in that
regard. A deposition is not a take home
examination.'") (quoting Greenway v. Int'l
Paper Co., 144 F.R.D. 322, 325 (W.D.La.1992)); Thorn
v. Sundstrand Aerospace Corp., 207 F.3d 383, 389 (7th
Cir.2000) ("We also believe, by analogy to the cases
which hold that a subsequent affidavit may not be used to
contradict the witness's deposition, that a change of
substance which actually contradicts the transcript is
impermissible unless it can plausibly be represented as the
correction of an error in transcription, such as dropping a
'not.'") (citations omitted). We agree with
our sister circuits' interpretation of FRCP 30(e) on this
point, and hold that Rule 30(e) is to be used for corrective,
and not contradictory, changes.
Hambleton, 397 F.3d at 1224-26 (internal footnote
omitted). In short, the Ninth Circuit explained that Rule
30(e) changes (1) must have a legitimate purpose, (2) must
not be used as a sham solely to create a material issue of
fact to evade summary judgment, and (3) must not be used to
alter what was actually said under oath. The Ninth Circuit
then articulated a standard, indicating that Rule 30(e)
changes are "to be used for corrective, and not
contradictory, changes." Id. at 1226.
As a
threshold matter, Experian argues that the Court should
disregard this standard and should conclude instead that any
change is permissible so long as the deponent has adhered to
the technical requirements outlined in Rule 30(e). Resp. at
2, 9.[1] Experian is correct that the Ninth Circuit
in Hambleton elsewhere addressed procedural
deficiencies with the changes made in that case. See
397 F.3d at 1224, 1226. Nonetheless, Experian fails to
explain in a persuasive manner why the existence of
procedural deficiencies in that case nullifies the Ninth
Circuit's discussion of the substantive scope of Rule
30(e) changes. "[N]othing in Hambleton Bros.
suggests that the Ninth Circuit's holding should be
limited to the unique facts of that case. Rather, the Ninth
Circuit unambiguously, and without qualification, held that
'Rule 30(e) is to be used for corrective, and not
contradictory, changes.'" Azco Biotech Inc. v.
Qiagen, N.V., Case No. 12-cv-2599-BEN (DHB), 2015 WL
350567, *4 (S.D. Cal. Jan. 23, 2015). The Court declines
Experian's invitation to ignore the Ninth Circuit's
direction as to the proper scope of Rule 30(e) changes.
resolved Experian's threshold argument, the Court turns
to the substantive scope of permissible Rule 30(e) changes.
The standard of allowing "corrective, and not
contradictory, changes" is not entirely
self-explanatory. The parties urge the Court to interpret
that standard differently, with each party's position
supported by varying decisions from district courts within
the Ninth Circuit. Those district courts, in turn, have
interpreted Hambleton in varying ways by seizing on
different aspects of the above discussion. These decisions
generally fall within three groups. The initial part of
Hambleton's discussion addresses the impropriety
of using Rule 30(e) changes in a manner akin to a sham
affidavit designed to avoid summary judgment, and some
district courts have found Rule 30(e) changes should be
stricken only when they constitute an improper tactic akin to
a sham affidavit. See, e.g., Peterson v. Alaska
Comm's Sys. Group, Inc., Case No. 3:12-cv-00090-TMB,
2017 WL 2332859, at *2 (D. Alaska Mar. 23, 2017); Ochoa
v. McDonald's Corp., Case No. 14-cv-02098-JD, 2015
WL 13079032, at *1 (N.D. Cal. June 2, 2015); Torres v.
Mercer Canyons, Inc., Case No. 1:14-cv-03032-SAB, 2015
WL 12868078, at *1 (E.D. Wash. May 29, 2015); Weekes v.
Ohio Nat'l Life Assur. Corp., Case No.
1:10-cv-0566-BLW, 2011 WL 6140967, at *3-4 (D. Id.
Dec. 9, 2011); BNSF Ry. Co. v. San Joaguin Valley R.R.
Co., Case No. 1:08-cv-01086-AWI-SMS, 2009 WL 3872043, at
*7-8 (E.D. Cal. Nov. 17, 2009); Paige v. Consumer
Programs, Inc., Case No. CV 07-2498-FMC (RCx), 2008 WL
2491665, at *3-4 (C.D. Cal. May 13, 2008). The latter part of
Hambleton's discussion agrees with appellate
case law from other circuits rejecting the use of Rule 30(e)
to alter deposition testimony actually given, and some
district courts have refused to permit Rule 30(e) changes
that alter the substance of deposition testimony in a
contradictory manner except when correcting transcription
errors. See, e.g., Parker v. Comcast Cable
Commc'ns Mgmt., LLC, Case No. 3:15-cv-05673-TEH
(KAW), 2017 WL 1758086, at *1-2 (N.D. Cal. May 5, 2017);
Gebrekiros v. Skywest Airlines, Inc., Case No.
C15-0210-JCC, 2016 WL 1643994, at *3 (W.D. Wash. Apr. 26,
2016); Ioane v. Spjute, Case No. 1:07-cv-0620 AWI
GSA, 2016 WL 1573184, at *4 (E.D. Cal. Apr. 19, 2016);

12, 2014); MGA Ent't, Inc. v. Nat'l Prods.
Ltd., Case No. CV 10-07083-JAK (SSx), 2012 WL 12886204,

C04-02927 JW(HRL), 2005 WL 3259992, at *2 (N.D. Cal. Nov. 29,
2005). Still other district courts have viewed the former and
latter parts of Hambleton's discussion as
alternative standards, indicating that Rule 30(e) changes are
impermissible if they are either being made as a sham or if
they are made in a fashion that contradicts the testimony
actually given. See, e.g., Mullins v. Premier
Nutrition Corp., 178 F.Supp.3d 867, 902 (N.D. Cal.
2016); Karpenski v. Am. Gen. Life Cos., 999
F.Supp.2d 1218, 1224 (W.D. Wash. 2014); Greer, 2017
WL 2389567, at *4; Adidas Am., Inc. v. Skechers USA,
Inc., Case No. 3:15-cv-01741-HZ, 2017 WL 2379862, at *2
(D. Or. Jan. 30, 2017); Lee v. The Pep Boys-Manny Moe
& Jack of Cal., Case No. 12-cv-05064-JSC, 2015 WL
6471186, *1-2 (N.D. Cal. Oct. 27, 2015); Lewis v. The
CCPOA Benefit Trust Fund, Case No. C-08-03228-VRW (DMR),
2010 WL 3398521, at *3 (N.D. Cal. Aug. 27, 2010).
As an
initial matter, the Court recognizes that the two standards
espoused by these cases are conceptually and practically
distinct. For example, the "sham affidavit"
standard requires not only that a affidavit is contradictory
of prior testimony, but also that the contradiction is being
made in an attempt to "create" a material issue
of fact. See, e.g., Kennedy, 952 F.2d at
267. Hence, the sham affidavit standard requires an
examination of a party's actions to determine whether the
party is correcting an "honest" mistake or
improperly attempting to create a material issue of fact.
See Id. On the other hand, the second standard
prohibits "alter[ing] what was said under oath"
because "[a] deposition is not a take home
examination." Hambleton, 397 F.3d at 1225
(quoting Garcia, 299 F.3d at 1242 n.5). That
standard is not concerned with ...

Vulkan API Performance Review - The Talos Principle
1440p Testing with AMD R9 Fury X and Nvidia GTX 980Ti
Published: 17th February 2016 | Source: OC3D | Price: |
Game Settings and 1440p Testing
One key thing that must be remembered here we are testing a Beta release of The Talos Principle and are using Beta drivers from both AMD and Nvidia, so results from here will not be representative of all titles, but it gives us a great look at what to expect when compared to OpenGL, the Khronos Group's old graphics API.
Game Settings
The game will be run at Ultra settings, with a resolution of 2560x1440 for both the screen resolution and the Max 3D rendering MPIX. We will be playing the game with no AA options enabled.
1440p Results
The 1440p results for this game are very interesting as the 1080p results for this title, with us again seeing that the Vulkan Version of the Game does not perform as well as DirectX 11 version. When we compare the Vulkan performance to OpenGL however we see a massive perfroamce increase, which is great to see as it is OpenGL that it is replacing and is currently used in pretty much all Mac OS and Linux games on PC.
When compared to OpenGL we can see a great deal of performance improvement, giving a 12FPS boost to Nvidia and a 22FPS boost to AMD. Since OpenGL is the API that is used for the Linux and Mac versions of the game, Vulkan represents a opportunity to gain a lot of extra performance and efficiency on these platforms, making Vulkan a must for anyone making a game for these platform.
Most Recent Comments
Would have thought it may have had something to do with HBM for the extra performance at higher res along with some more refined drivers from AMD.
384 seems a bit meh especially for 6GB. I guess its better than 256 for the 4GB.
Kind of funny really. Just like how the 7970 came such a long way thanks to more mature drivers. Just look at where the 290x can get you now.Quote

Hi Everybody,
Has anybody come across a list of all gyms and fitness centers in Bali? I tried searching online and only found a few big places near Kuta. I am planning on spending about a month in the Lovina area and would love to get back into my workout routine if at all possible. Thanks.
Ask Bali fans for recommendations on everything from places to stay to top attractions to the best dentists. Learn about getting married in Bali, how to travel elsewhere in Indonesia and anything else about this island paradise.

Gyms in Bali
There are a couple of basic gyms not far from Lovina, more towards Singaraja. They have free weights and basic machines. Not much for cardio, but they are very cheap. There are a few western style upmarket gyms in Seminyak and that area but expensive.

This comedic final weekend of hockey is, if I may, fan-fucking-tastic. As opposed to last year where the Canuck faithful were sacrificing virgins in hopes of squeaking into 8th, this year at least we can sit comfortably knowing that we have two games to get the two points we need for the NW crown.
What? We didn't sacrifice virgins last year? Well, that explains what happened now doesn't it?
Leaving the Canucks destiny alone for a second, look at all the love angles popping up this Easter weekend:
Also, it's worth noting that if the Canucks get their two points, but the Wild beat the Blues anyway, it's up to Dallas to get at least a point in their final two games against the Ducks and Blackhawks. If they don't, then guess who the Canucks get in the first round? I'm sure Jes Gőlbez would be ok with that, but I sure wouldn't.
Too many short term love angles to mention if you glance around the league (cough cough), so let's just all agree we love Keira Knightley no matter what happens. Agreed? Agreed.

Extender is an air-drop deployable unmanned air vehicle (UAV) for Electronic Warfare missions. Extender folds into a 32" x 32" x 20" enclosure for storage. For deployment, the Extender enclosure is simply pushed out of the door of a helicopter, transport, or patrol aircraft. Upon being air-dropped, a parachute is deployed, the enclosure is shed, and the wings unfold and lock into position. Next, the parachute is released and the electric motor is switched on. Extender has a 2.3-hour endurance, cruising at 45 mph, powered by LiSO2 batteries. Extender can perform an entirely autonomous mission using GPS navigation, or utilize a spread spectrum RF link for real-time operator directed command and control. Gross weight is 31 lbs., including a 7 lb. payload capacity. Extender has flown utilizing conventional runway takeoffs, demonstrated autonomous navigation, and demonstrated the air-drop deployment in a vertical wind tunnel.

Mobility has been the buzz word for quite some time and it will continue to be. Enterprises are progressively adopting Mobile App Development platforms as part of their business strategy. So, analyzing the current trends of the business world, we predict that mobility will continue to rule in 2017 as well.
Today, the word 'mobile' resonates with a lot of things. We talk of mobile gaming, shopping, banking and other mobile services. With an increasing inclination towards mobile, changing business trends and galore mobile applications, it's just a foretaste of what is to come.
The mobile-evolved Business
Business ecosystems are continuously evolving. They are going digital right from their revenue models, delivery models, payments, customer service, marketing, manufacturing to supply chains. This presented a strong case for businesses to look beyond their set value chain model and move towards the dynamic value web.
Leveraging mobility, businesses allowed multiple parties such as distributors, retailers, suppliers, customers, partners etc. to collaborate, drive contextual communications and share information. It now allows stakeholders to participate in the business ecosystem and go beyond organizational boundaries. There are several instances to prove that customers are now a part of the business ecosystems. For instance, when customer enters pickup and delivery details while booking a cab, when he/she enter ingredients or sauce preferences for their food order or when you offer online services to your clients.
All this is great but, what are organizations missing on ? The organizations are progressively adopting mobility in their work environment. However, in the process, are they just building another silo?
The next wave of Enterprise Mobility trend
Mobility has enabled businesses expand their reach and has allowed external stakeholders to participate in their business ecosystem, moving beyond the traditional value chains. However, the trend will now shift to 'Process Experience'. And, how do enterprises achieve this ?
Combining the strong capabilities of mobile and Business Process Management (BPM), enterprises can transform their businesses by innovatively connecting their systems, processes, people and things. What does this duo stands to offer ? To illustrate, if you are a field executive working outside office premises, leveraging BPM you can -
· Capture information and share in real-time
· Allow for parallel processing at back-end
· Validate captured data and send for further approvals
· Make decisions on-the-fly with all the real-time information on your mobile
· Drive contextual customer interactions, accessing their information from CRM through BPM
Going mobile with BPM
The increasing millennial worker population is transforming the concept of workplace. The current enterprise mobility trends suggest that about 60% of workers work outside office at least part of the time. Such trends present a strong case for businesses to go mobile with BPM.
The mobile environment backed by BPM with security features like rights-based access gives specific employees access to work items, information and reports on their devices, transforming them to responsive 'knowledge workers'. With mobility as the future, going mobile with BPM, leveraging its extensive integration capabilities, adaptable workflows, and a collaborative environment is the key.
A mobile BPM offers a truly collaborative environment by integrating your mobile processes with back-end processing. This allows for real-time and parallel processing, enabling organizations to become more productive and efficient.
So, the coming year, go mobile with BPM, beak the silos and become responsive.

Abstract: The centers of bulges are formed dissipationally via gas inflows over shorttimescales: the -starburst- mode of star formation SF. Recent work has shownthat detailed observations can be used to separate the stellar mass profile ofthese -burst relic- components in local systems. Together with the assumptionthat some Kennicutt-Schmidt law holds, and that the burst was indeed adissipational gas-rich event, we show that the observed profiles can beinverted to obtain the time and space-dependent SF history of each burst.Performing this with a large sample of well-studied spheroids, we show that theimplied bursts scale in magnitude, mass, peak SFR, and spatial extent withgalaxy mass in simple manner, and provide fits to these correlations. Burstmasses are ~10% the total spheroid mass; timescales a mass-independent ~10^8yr; peak SFR ~M burst-t burst; and they decay in power-law fashion ~t^-2.4.Sizes are ~0.1 R espheroid, but grow with time. Combined with measurements ofthe nuclear stellar population ages of these systems i.e. burst times, it ispossible to re-construct the burst contribution to the distribution of SFRs andIR luminosity functions at all redshifts. The burst LF agrees well withobserved IR LFs at the brightest luminosities, at z=0-2. At low-L, bursts arealways unimportant; the transition to their importance increases from ULIRGluminosities at z~0 to HyLIRG luminosities at z~2. At all redshifts, bursts area small fraction ~5-10% of the total SFR density. We discuss possibleimplications of tension between maximum relic stellar mass densities in massivesystems, and estimated number counts of brightest sub-millimeter galaxies.

After starting the NBA season worse than any team in history, the 0-18 Nets got their 1st win with a 97-91 home victory over the Charlotte Bobcats. Courtney Lee came back to the starting lineup in a big way, scoring 27 points and getting 3 key steals. Brook Lopez continued his great season with 31 points and 14 rebounds. The Bobcats played their starters for almost the entire game, using only 3 players from off the bench, which only aided the Nets late surge.

Peak: The Rescuers is exactly what you expect, a movie about mountain rescuers saving people in the face of adversity and dangerous weather conditions. In delivering as expected, the film succeeds without any major fireworks, but rather going the safe route of efficiency and effectiveness. The film is ably aided by an extremely charismatic performance from lead actor – Shun Oguri, which allows the film to storm through the audiences' minds at a million miles an hour. Director Osamu Katayama does extremely well in setting up a tense finale through some excellent build up work, Although, Peak: The Rescuers is easily inspiring, the film lacks an emotional punch and the result is definite failure to fully engage the audience in the proceedings. Another flaw is the constant cutting of rescue sequences or in particular the non-showing of the much awaited amputation scene. Gruesome and cruel it may seem, but of the actual scene is shown, the emotional engagement level will undoubtedly increase.
In saying that, Peak: The Rescuers is by no means a bad movie as it pretty much delivers as per expectation. In fact, this is a film that could have been great, if only for the emotional engagement factor. Still, the film ends on a good note: "What do you never ever abandon? Life." Go Sanpo!

Interior design isn't just for professionals; it can be for everyday people like you too! Designing the home of your dreams doesn't have to require an expansive wallet or a hoard of professionals. Start your journey of interior design with the simple tips below and you are sure to see your way to success!
Interior design is made easier with a software program. There are many programs that will allow you to take a picture of your existing space and create your look inside of that picture. This is a great way to visualize the changes in the space before making them happen.
Many professionals have many things to talk about when it comes to interior design, which you might want to listen to some degree only. You need to listen to your own instinct as to what you will enjoy, as this is your home, not theirs.
Take care when choosing colors for your interior-design project. You want a color scheme the works harmoniously together to create a balanced look. It is just as important to avoid incorporating too many colors that clash with each other as it is to avoid creating a bland, monotone and boring space.
Have you ever heard the old saying about taking off one piece of jewelry before you leave your home? The same rule applies to interior design. Once you finish decorating a room, give it a good look and spend some time editing down your design. Even if you love every pillow, plant, or picture in your home, you don't want a room to look cluttered.
When redecorating a small kitchen, keep your color pallet pale. A pale color pallet will brighten the space and make it appear larger. It is also best to focus on one or two colors to keep the space from appearing busy. Light blue, sea green, white and ivory are all wonderful choice for a small kitchen space.
A lot of people have smaller rooms that are begging to seem larger. Paint the walls in light colors to give the room a larger look. If you use dark colors in small spaces, it can make the spaces appear smaller than they actually are.
Chandeliers bring elegance and romance to a bedroom. Consider changing out your lighting fixture or fan for a chandelier for a glamorous look and fresh appeal. There are many different varieties of chandeliers on the market, and there are many different sizes as well. It is easy to find one that fits well in any bedroom space.
Always keep functionality in mind when you're designing a room. You need to consider your day to day usage of the room. Ask yourself if certain features will inhibit your day to day usage. Will it become hard to maneuver around? Will it become distracting and hinder you? Your room should be functional above all else.
If your interior design plans include changing any existing lighting or plumbing you might want to hire a professional. While there are many books and other resources that claim to teach a beginner how to do any project, there is still room for error. If you are not knowledgeable in electricity or plumbing you should consult a professional.
Try using the 2012 color of the year in your rooms. This year, the chosen color is, "Tangerine Tango." This warm orange has a lot of depth to it and it looks sophisticated. It combines red's power with yellow's friendliness. You can easily incorporate it into your art, walls, carpet, furniture, and more.
Interior design has something to offer everyone, including you. Don't feel overwhelmed by the ideas you have just read, take notes instead. Take the time and think your inspired designs through. The tips in the article above can just be the starting point in the wonderful world of interior design!

The farmer was still harvesting his crops and was in the field adjacent/closest to the quarry. This meant the Buzzard was hanging around a lot sadly I didn't see the Kestrel the two didn't seem to like each other with the Kestrel being chased away, however the Buzzard was doing a great impression of a kestrel hovering "kestrel style" over the fields.
As you can see in the background I spent the last part of the evening around the log pile and got at least one interesting species (me aside).
A fresh looking Willow Warbler in pale yellow stood out the most from the crowd.

I recently reviewed Illamasqua's Milf and decided to try a few manicure options and show you the outcome.
The mint/chocolate combo seems to be a popular one but I decided to stay away from something that would make me hungry every time I looked at my hands. As I don't own a lot of pastel colours, the traditional choices were also out of the equation, so I had a look at my collection and came up with the following alternatives:
|Click to enlarge
Thumb - OPI Glitzerland
I had envisaged an antique gold on my tip but as I don't particularly like gold, the only one that I had was Glitzerland from the Swiss collection. It actually looks a lot nicer than I thought, and makes me feel like wearing gold, which is an achievement in itself.
Index finger - OPI Jade Is The New Black
I love this colour! Sadly, it's too much of a safe combination; it looks alright but doesn't get me very excited.
Middle finger - OPI Dim Sum Plum
I think these two shades go really well together. Very pretty and feminine without being boring. This is the closest to a pink that I have.
Ring finger - Nicole by OPI I'm a Belieber
I'm not really a "Belieber" but this has got to be one of my favourite Nicole nail varnishes. How pretty does this look? The winner by a country mile! It reminds me of my daughter's bedroom so it's even more special to me.
Little finger - OPI Ski Teal We Drop
This colour is very nice indeed, but for some reason the combination did not turn out as I had imagined. I was torn between this shade and Suzi Likes Feng Shui. In hindsight, that might have worked better as this teal is far too dark.
Have you tried any of these before? What combination works best for you?

Tips on Selecting the Best Mattress for You
Nebraska Furniture Mart | On December 9, 2015
Picking out a new mattress can take some time and consideration to find the perfect match for you. Everyone has a personal preference when it comes to firm or soft mattresses, not to mention all of the different materials that you can find in mattresses. Let's take a closer look at some of the features you can expect to find with the selection of mattresses on sale at NFM.
Continuous Coil or Cage Coil Mattress
This is a traditional type of mattress. The coils are all connected in a "cage" like configuration. Some of these mattresses can be flipped and lead to the illusion of it lasting longer then other types of mattresses.
Benefits– These mattresses typically aren't too expensive and are widely available. You'll find good options for almost every budget.
Consider – Cause a lot of resistance and don't offer pressure relief. The connected coils can also cause motion transfer with movement disturbing your sleep cycle.
Wrapped or Pocketed Coil Mattress
This type of mattress will feature an individual coil wrapped or pocketed in a fabric.
Benefits – There is far less motion transfer then a cage coil. You'll also find more support and pressure relief then a cage coil, this is due to the fact that the coil can move and bend more to your body.
Consider – Though this coil system is much better then a cage coil, there is still some resistance causing minimal pressure and there is still minimal motion transfer throughout the mattress.
Visco Memory Foam Mattress
This is the most common memory foam mattress available. You can typically find this type of mattress at a variety of price points.
Benefits – Great pressure relief. This mattress will completely conform to the consumers body. Zero motion transfer throughout the bed causing less tossing and turning and sleep disturbance.
Consider – These mattresses can have a "sinking" feeling and they tend to run warmer then coil mattresses. If inexpensive foams are used the mattress may not last long compared to other foam mattresses.
Gel Infused Memory Foam Mattress
These mattresses feature memory foam with gel beads infused in the foam.
Benefits – Like a visco foam mattress will conform to the consumers body and will have zero motion transfer. The gel beads in the foam actually make the mattress much more durable.
Consider – The gel may not have that much of a cooling effect. Therefore, this mattress will run hotter then a traditional spring mattress.
Memory Foam with a Phase Changing Agent Added.
Benefits – All the benefits of memory foam with out the heat. This is the type of mattress I recommend the most. The gels provide the correct support and will cradle you to sleep.
Consider– These mattresses can still have that sinking feeling found in foam mattresses.
Be sure to check out our Mattress Buying Guide video series so we can help you find the best mattress.

Chuck Wendig had a dream with a recurring phrase: There is no exit.
A situation with no escape can only be a nightmare. Can't it?
"Della and Jo have pledged their love for each other, they have sealed their vows and received their rings. Before this gathering, they have expressed their complete and pure dedication to one another, and by the authority vested in me, I now pronounce you -"
It made my world crack, the pause that followed. Hesitation that lasted only for the fraction of a moment. Until he continued.
"- married. You may kiss the bride!"
Nothing cracked. Nothing shattered.
There was a twinkle in his eyes, and was that a wink? A wink that not only was meant for us both, but also glued us to him, to the pride and the sympathy in the face of this stranger. The officiant didn't look at either of us but at both of us together, gaze inviting, the corners of his mouth twitching as I felt a hand on my hip and shook myself out of what still felt like a dream.
A daydream, a joyous, hopeful dream that did everything to dissolve the shadows of the past nightmare. Jo's eyes, her mouth, her whole face shone with happiness as she bent down to me and whispered something. Whatever it was, its meaning was lost to me when her lips met mine and a cheer erupted from the crowd around us.
A first breath after endless drowning. A first bite after endless starving.
"Please sign here." My hands didn't shake. They didn't.
I had loved her before, I loved her now, I would love her forever. She was enough, and she would've been always enough, with a ring or without. She knew that, and it wasn't the point.
This here – this was the "No Exit" sign where no exit was needed. For us, and for everyone else. It was the end of discussions, of all the arguments that only veiled their incomprehension and contempt behind well-intended questions.
"Are you sure about this?"
"You know what your aunt said. She changed her will."
"What about children? Don't you want children?"
"I will pray for you."
"That's such a serious step. So final."
"But you always wanted a white gown. As a girl. And a prince."
"We only want the best for you."
"Don't make hasty decisions. You just have to find the right one."
Sorry, Dad – already taken.
This here – these rings, these words, this signature, even the twinkle in the officiant's eyes – was the answer to all these questions. They were facts. My commitment and hers, my safeguard and hers, my obligation and hers. Ours now, thrown into the face of the world. A fait accompli.
It's not a prison, friends. It's just a room with no exit.

The Italian brand grows in value: Italy is in ninth place among other most performing nations on the planet
The value of the "brand Italy" grows in the world and in 2016 the estimate of its turnover has exceeded 1,500 billion dollars. Italy, therefore, is positioned in ninth place among the most performing 100 Countries of the planet.
The data emerges from a new research "Brand Finance Nation Brands", that every year prepares a list of Nations with the most solid brand and appreciated on a worldwide level: practically, an estimate is prepared of the possible turnover produced through the calculation of future royalties. The "Nation Brands" research, carried out by the specialised British company Brand Finance, uses the same method used to estimate the value of most of the companies worldwide, elaborating data provided by international organisations and market research companies (such as the World Economic Forum, GfK, fDi Intelligence, IMD).
The results for 2016 confirm that USA is in first place of the classification of the 100 leading countries, with an estimate of a turnover of the brand of 20,574 billion dollars (+4% compared to 2015). China is stable in second place (7,087 billion dollars, +12%), followed by Germany even though in slight decline (3,882 billion, -7%) and Japan (3,002 billion, +18%). Italy confirms its position in ninth place, with an estimate of future turnovers of the "tricolour brands" of 1,521 billion dollars, registering a discreet increase compared to the 1,445 billion of 2015 (+5%). Following our Country, are Australia (1,305 billion, -7%) and the Netherlands (1,121 billion, +12%). Right at the bottom of the list are Cyprus and Camerun (both with 10 billion).
The data is communicated in occasion of the Bologna Licensing Trade Fair (BLTF), the only Italian fair appointment of the licence buying-selling sector and the development of products based on established brands and properties that will be held from the 3rd to the 5th April in the Fair Grounds of Bologna.

(SNAPP Reviews aren't really a full fledged game review as much as they are just a way for us to give you a quick "heads-up" on whether a certain game is good or not. It usually means that we haven't finished the game yet, but have played a good enough chunk to know whether it's worth your time/money or not.)
There's been a lot of "hidden gems" releasing on the App Store as of late. It seems like everytime I turn around, I'm finding something interesting and worth talking about. This one just released on May 2nd. I actually remember putting it in last week's SNAPP Roundup, but didn't get around to putting some decent time into it until this week.
The game is called, Diseviled by indie developers, Ivan Demidov, Max Shipulin, Katerina Mamaeva, and Benjamin Rost and was published by Y8.com.
Originally, I didn't expect much out of the game. For some reason, the screenshots just didn't grab me and say, "Hey! I'm a pretty good game! You might enjoy me!". Luckily, I try just about everything before dismissing it. (Except anything with cheese on it. I hate you cheese!)
Diseviled is described as an "action platformer". You play as a powerful warrior on a quest to save the princess from demons. When the princess is kidnapped by demons, the king calls upon you to fight through demon hordes known as the "Diseviled".
I kept getting an old school "Pitfall" vibe while playing the game. Static rooms, swinging vines, hidden treasures. Those who have played the original Pitfall will know what I'm talking about. That's a compliment though. You'll be flipping a lot of switches, solving puzzles, and fighting enemies throughout the entire game.
Diseviled isn't bringing anything new to the action platformer genre. It can be a little rough around the edges when it comes jumping sometimes and fighting can get a little tough with how your character swings (TIP: Remember to use that "guard" button!). It's fairly short too with only 10 levels. But, luckily there is an Arena Mode where you can fight wave after waves of enemies and unlock 3 other characters all with different stats. Diseviled may not be the best action platformer out there, but it definitely surprised me. If you can look over some of the game's faults, it just might be worth your time.

The father of a teenager who died after an incident at a Newcastle swimming pool in October will be able to have his son cremated in Sydney, despite the mother wanting to bury him alongside his maternal Maori ancestors.
Lawyers for Te Rina Abraham and Steven Henry, who split soon after the birth of Pono in 2000, had argued in the NSW Supreme Court for his body to be released to their client rather than the other parent.
In a decision he described as "most difficult" and involving Maori cultural issues, Justice Stephen Rothman ruled in favour of the father who wanted a funeral then a cremation, with half the ashes going to the mother.
"Ultimately, the deceased had expressed no view, but his perceived views are, in the circumstances, probably less important than the views of those around him and who will and do mourn his loss," Justice Rothman's written judgment said.
"The circumstances are tragic. The court is not King Solomon. Whatever happens, one or other party will be disadvantaged."
Pono, who suffered brain damage in a road accident in 2013, died after an incident at the Lambton Pool in Newcastle in October.
The 17-year-old lived in Newcastle, while his mother now lives in New Zealand and his father is in Queensland.
Ms Abraham is strongly opposed to her son being cremated for cultural reasons and fought to have him buried in NZ alongside his maternal ancestors.
According to evidence called on her behalf, a body should be buried to return the person to the earth from which they came under Maori cultural rules.
Cremation is forbidden and every part of a body is to be kept intact.
However, a Maori woman who was one of the father's witnesses said she'd never heard of cremation being taboo.
She said that while burial was traditionally preferred in Maori culture, there had been a shift in practices and it was not uncommon to cremate a body.
Mr Henry sought a traditional Maori service in Sydney before his son was cremated, with half of the ashes then going to Ms Abraham.
Justice Rothman in his judgment said the father's course was preferable for the majority of close relatives.
Cremations have occurred even in NZ and in funerals performed in Maori culture, the judge said.
He issued orders which he said would allow a Maori cultural burial service in Australia while giving each of the important relatives the capacity to have ashes at ancestral or other burial locations.

Chapter five - BIG DECISIONS
Tomorrow Pe gets to get close to reality, yes, the big day is tomorrow. However she has had the time to accept what's coming ahead of her; all this new decisions to take care of.. Just because there's a new stage means the end of another one, and that's how it is; so Pe is excited of all this new things that are going to start happening tomorrow. Excited could be taken as bad excitement or good. Anyhow, what it is it just is and it can't be changed. -Dear Pe, just be aware of what's ahead of you, take care, xoxo

Chapter four (yes chapter three is far behind)
Chapter three: the confusing time for Pe.
Chapter four: the reality viewed directly from Pe's eyes. Anylonger she had to be shown how reality was. Or at least how it was viewed for those that wanted to show her "reality, the truth of life".
-Goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend. I am now the one who will see reality by myself, I am not being shown anymore.- she whispered quietly to her own mind.

Chapter two
Pe loved nothing else than being and leting her be herself.
Happy Pe returned, she heared:
-Welcome home!!! Nice to have you back Pe!!!-
As she had gone somewhere else, far away. But she didn't, she just had some time when she wasn't her, eventhough, they said it right. Her animic status caused Pe to feel far away, it was like she hadn't been there those last months. Which was quite that actually; the important thing: Pe got back into her track!!!

Opening day
Last night, Pe finally realized that his negative thought about how it will all end, is not negative. It is just realistic. She tried to be optimistic all this time, but Pe finally gave up, specially when he let her see the reality. He finally stopped being negative, she finally stopped being optimistic. In the end they became neutral, for good, but that caused to fade almost everything away.
They realized they'd be torn apart, and nothing could stop that tearing. It's the end of the world as we know it.
And then, the next day came.. The "opening" day. Everything opened up to their eyes. Reality.

Borderlands 2 Defeat Flynt
Borderlands 2 Defeat Flynt
Borderlands 2 Defeat Flynt
In Borderlands, the hero must defeat Flynt at the end of the Best Minion Ever quest. Flynt is the tyrant pirate who has taken over "Claptrap's ship". He is also the tormentor of Claptrap over the last few months. Hence Claptrap has brought his best minion ever to defeat Flynt and end the torment. This will guide the vault hunter on how to use shrewd tactics to defeat Flynt, and how to take out Flynt's minions with stealth and sniper tactics.
Borderlands 2 Get Past the Marauders and Bandits in the Soaring Dragon
Before facing Flynt, the hero must get past the marauders and the bandits that lie in the Soaring Dragon stakeout. As the assassin hero Zero, the vault hunter will use stealth and sniper techniques to zoom in and take out the bandits. To do this, the hero searches for vantage points along the battle path towards Flynt. These vantage points are listed below -
- from the end of the fight with the brothers, go past the exit into the soaring dragon area. The hero will arrive at a high ground - take out the marauders on the right.
- move to the area before the main entrance into the Soaring Dragon camp; on the vantage point on the right, take out the marauders from the high ground.
- enter the compound once the bandits are cleared; get to the high ground on the right before the second entrance and take out more bandits
- past a tunnel, the hero must head towards the third entrance, and use the barrel as cover to take out the bandits; there will be a health and shield vending machine in this area. Use this to the hero's advantage.
- the hero will see Claptrap being beaten up by some bandits; defeat them and go up the stairs by following Claptrap.
The hero will arrive at ambush points by climbing up the stairs. Use deception, the sniper rifle and the gunstock iron to defeat the marauders and bandits at the ambush points. Toss in a grenade when these bandits converge at one point.
All Guns Blazing vs Shrewd Tactics to Defeat Flynt
Finally the hero will climb a ramp and reach a small shack with an ammo and grenade vending machine. Beyond this, the hero can jump down and see Flynt in the distance. Flynt attacks!
There are two ways to approach this - either go in all guns blazing and dodge left and right before engaging Flynt in a pyro vs bullets fight, or use the shrewd approach. The hero will likely be outmatched by Flynt's pyro firepower, and will be engulfed in a fiery ball of death in an all guns blazing approach.
The vault hunter will be remolecularized as a New-U at the nearby machine. Now the vault hunter needs to use the shrewd approach to defeat Flynt. This tactic is simple; don't leave the shack with the ammo vending machine. Fire at Flynt from this shack. Use the sniper rifle or other hugely damaging weapons. Throw in some grenades. Avoid the attacks of the pyro psychos and Flynt's fire attack. When the hero runs out of ammo and grenades, get more from the vending machine, and resume the attacks. Eventually Flynt will be defeated. Grab the pyro pistol from him.
It's time to head to Sanctuary.

Fantastic wedding boutique in Manchester. I found my dream Ian Stuart wedding dress here and the staff were so helpful and friendly.

Is a beneficiary who is found guilty of defrauding a substantial sum of money from her mother, disentitled to what her mother left to her by will? This is one of two questions the Supreme Court of British Columbia considered in Coffee (Estate) v. Coffey, 2014 BCSC 110.
Josephine Coffee defrauded her mother of about $1.6 million dollars. Her mother, Elizabeth Coffee, had appointed her as an attorney under an enduring power of attorney. She was criminally convicted for a number of crimes including breach of trust and theft for embezzling funds from her mother and others.
She did repay almost half a million of the funds she took from her mother pursuant to an order that she make restitution.
In a will she made before he daughter's embezzlement had been discovered, Elizabeth Coffee's had left a portion of her estate to Josephine Coffee.
After Elizabeth Coffee's death, two of her other children were appointed as administrator with will annexed of their mother's estate. They brought an application to the Supreme Court of British Columbia asking whether their sister Josephine was disentitled to her share. They maintained that, by the time the fraud was discovered, their mother no longer had the mental capacity to understand their sister's embezzlement or to make a new will. They argued that if Elizabeth Coffee had sufficient mental capacity, she would have disinherited Josephine Coffee.
Chief Justice Hinkson held that Elizabeth Coffee's embezzlement did not disentitle her from a share of her mother's estate. Quoting from a decision of the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal, in Bolianatz Estate v.Simon, 2006 SKCA 16 (CanLII), Chief Justice Hinkson wrote:
[24] At paras. 57 and 58 of his concurring reasons, Mr. Justice Richards discussed other authorities relied upon by the administrator:
57 ... it is helpful to consider the broader pattern of the law in this field. In that regard, the authorities appear to have recognized only a limited number of very particular situations where the conduct of a beneficiary, in and of itself, will invalidate an inheritance. The first of these is where the beneficiary perpetrates a fraud on the testator and obtains the legacy by virtue of that fraud. See: Kennell v. Abbott, 31 E.R. 416. The second is where the testator is coerced by the beneficiary into a bequest he or she does not want to make. See: Hall v. Hall (1868), L.R. 1 P. & D. 481; J. Martyn et al., Theobald on Wills, 16th ed. (
London: Sweet & Maxwell, 2001) at 3-27. The third is where the beneficiary kills the testator. In such circumstances he or she is debarred from taking under the will or intestacy of the victim. See: Cleaver v. Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association, [1892] 1 Q.B. 147; In the Estate of Hall v. Knight and Baxter, [1914] P. 1.
58 Aside from such exceptions, the general orientation of the law is very much against involving the courts in superintending the question of whether particular beneficiaries merit their inheritances. Bequests are not denied because a beneficiary is of bad character, has behaved immorally or has been involved in criminal activity.
This case did not come within one of the exceptions. Chief Justice Hinkson found no evidence that the gift in the will was obtained by fraud or coercion, nor could he assume that Elizabeth Coffee would necessarily disinherit her daughter Josephine if she had understood the embezzlement and had capacity to make a new will.
He wrote:
[29] I respectfully agree with these comments by both Lane and Richards JJ.A., and find that the petitioners have not persuaded me that Ms. Coffey's bequest under her mother's will was the result of any fraud upon her mother or any coercion by Ms. Coffey.
[Since publishing this post, I have written a second part on this case about whether the administrators of the estate could set-off the amount of Josephine Coffee's debt from the amount payable to her as beneficiary here.]
[30] Nor am I persuaded that, had she known of her daughter's fraud and theft, the Testatrix would have disinherited her. To the contrary, the Testatrix may have concluded that her daughter had accepted responsibility for her actions, endured a period of incarceration, and made an effort to repay some of what she had stolen, such that she should have a share in her estate equal to her siblings, which in all likelihood would be used only to reduce the amounts that she was obliged to pay by way of the restitution order of Judge Kitchen.
