1. Pin hair as flat and as tight as possible before taking the measurements.
2. Round your measurements up no t down. Example: 12 3/4 should be rounded up to 13 and 12 1/4 should be rounded up to 12 1/2.
Note: If you are bald or do not have a hair line - you do not need to add the inch - simply put the tape measure where you would like your hairline to begin with the wig. The averages below are just examples. Not everyone will meet these measurements - some may be under or over and that is perfectly fine.
1. Circumference
Measure all around the head. Position tape measure so its edge follows the hair line around the head and nape of
the neck. (Average measurement is 22 inches).
2. Forehead to Nape of neck
Measure from hairline at center of forehead straight back over crown to center of
hairline at nape of neck. (Average measurement is 13 1/2 inches).
3. Ear to Ear Across Front Hairline
At front of ear, measure from hairline at base of sideburn, up across the hair line along forehead to same point in
front of other ear. (Average measurement is 11 1/2 inches).
4. Ear to Ear Over the Top
Measure from hairline directly above the ear across top of head to the hairline directly above the other ear.
(Average measurement is 11 inches).
5. Temple to Temple Around Back
From temple to temple across the back of head. (Average measurement is 14 inches).
6. Nape of Neck
Measure the width of hairline across the nape of the neck. (Average measurement is 6 inches).
Our Straight texture is our most popular and versatile hair. Easy to style and maintain, this hair can be curled, blow dried and flat ironed to achieve an assortment of looks, and will always revert back to its Straight state.
100% Human Virgin Brazilian hair
Available in Natural Black 1b and Natural Brown 2
We recommend 3 bundles for a full look.
Weight: Approximately 100g (3.5 oz) per bundle
Weft Type: Machine double weft
Luster: Medium
Brand: Fly Hair
Long lasting
Soft, beautiful and natural
Offers Free Shipping via DHL worldwide.
Product Code: BRS12
Our 100% Virgin Brazilian hair weft is completely natural and chemical free. Its meets our rigorous standards of being unprocessed and pure, and in its healthiest state, so as the pinnacle of human hair extensions it can be used time and time again.
Our virgin hair comes in two natural colours of Natural Black and Natural Brown. Different looks can be created by dyeing the hair to achieve your desired colours, we suggest using a professional stylist for colouring.
Great for Sew in Weaves, you can also attach clips, micro loop rings and glue for other extension types.
Q. Are your hair extensions human hair or synthetic?
A: Our hair extensions are made from 100% Human hair, so they are thick and shiny and very high quality.
Q. Can I dye /color the hair?
A: Yes. The hair can be colored. As a general rule it is easier to darken the hair than to lighten the hair. We recommend to dye darker , not lighter. Since the hair extension has been processed and colored, it is difficulty to fade the original color. Improper dying will ruin the hair. We highly recommend having your hairdresser dye the extensions as you will get the results you want, coloring them yourself always poses a high risk of not coming out the shade you want. If you can't get to a salon, always use a good quality hair dye and test a small sample first.
Q. Can your hair be straightened, curled?
A: Treat the hair as if it is your own. Use a flat iron/straightener or tongs, even when fitted, but as with your own hair, never use hot tools too often as you could dry the hair and it will not last as long.
Q. How do I wash my hair extensions?
A: Wash the hair in one direction. From top to bottom, avoid washing hair upside down in the sink. Use shampoos and conditioners that are for dry hair and add the most moisture. Wash hair right after swimming. When brushing your hair, start from the bottom and work your way up while holding the top part to keep it from shedding or streching.
Q. How do I attach them to my own hair?
A: Hair Extensions come in separate wefts with small snap clips that you can attach under your hair. The clips are designed for complete security and virtual invisibility, which means that your extensions are super safe to wear and nobody ever has to know about them but you!

When you say it like that it seems like a no brainer and should be updated. But the point I will bring up is that they have 2 different Registered Positions. For a CF to have high TW isn't always a good thing. Couldn't that make them less selfish and pass when they have a good scoring opportunity? So they might be on different scales.

Yes, the most likely explanation is that Manami told Ayase about Kyousuke (he tells her everything).
Although, in volume 10, Ayase did manage to get her hands on the keys to Kyousuke's apartment (and duplicated a set on her own), which hinted that she might have "acquired" it from Kirino. Here's why:
1) Kyousuke had only moved in a few days ago
2) The only people who had his keys was his family (unless Manami has one as well)
3) Earlier in that chapter, Kirino managed to enter his apartment when Kyousuke was at school (so she could deliver the refrigerator to him)
So it IS possible that Kirino told Ayase about the whole being number one in the Kyousuke's heart declaration, considering one of the main themes of volume 10 is the meeting (clashing?) between Kirino's otaku and non-otaku friends, having them come clean, and then learning to coexist with one another.
However, I'm leaning more towards Manami being the one to have told Ayase about it (kinda weird for Kirino to have said THAT to Ayase, even though she always brings up Kyousuke in their conversations. And remember, it was Manami who told Ayase that Kyousuke had broken up in vol 9).
Edit: Just checked vol 8 again, and came across a certain paragraph that confirmed that Kyousuke had told all the details of the break up to Manami, so it's pretty much obvious Ayase had heard Kirino's words from her.
Here's a rough translation of said paragraph,
Spoiler for Vol 8, Ch 4:
...I guess Manami really did influence Ayase's actions quite a bit.
As for Kyousuke's reaction...not much besides saying she looks stunning (and that his heart rate increases when seeing her face up front).
Can't say for certain if Saori "deserves" a spot in the race, so to speak. Remember that this Ojou-Saori (Saori Makishima) is quite different from her otaku self (Saori Bajeena) - the biggest difference of which is being more honest with her feelings. Hence her somewhat aggressive stance in volume 10. Makes you wonder if those teases aimed at Kyousuke in the past actually meant something more.
I think it's because I can't in good conscience say that Saori is completely uninterested in Kyousuke...there's something there that I can't explain (and considering almost every girl in the series have shown a liking towards Kyousuke...meh). Though not really obvious, but Saori does seem to hold Kyousuke in high regard.
I do have another theory as well, one that ties with her elder sister Kaori from vol 9. In Saori's mind, Kaori has always remained the image of being a irresponsible and incompetent sibling. Then came Kyousuke, who was everything Kaori was not - caring, responsible and dependable when it involved his sister. Though this is pure speculation, but such a contrast in character can be seen as a solid and strong groundwork for Saori to develop affection towards Kyousuke.
Anyway, I already made a long post a while back about Saori's chances of winning. You don't need to have a long history of making moves on Kyousyke to enter the race (Kanako is the perfect example of this), but Saori's "advances" - if there ever was any - were more or less overshadowed by Kirino and Kuroneko's actions. And really, Saori's existence has always been weak to begin with. Think about it, she was absent in quite a few of the important events throughout the series, such as the whole going to America, fake boyfriend, the break up, etc. And that's just naming a few. It really is no wonder people never really considered her to be a major character with any important role, much less as a potential love interest for Kyousuke.

Ah, that. Yep, Kirino and Ayase went to a beauty parlor on the exact day of Kyousuke's result release.
In Kyousuke's words, Kirino permed the tip of her hair which looked lighter and fluffier (didn't say if it's a whole bodywave or a simple curly perm), and that it made Kirino look mature. And yes, Kyousuke said (to Kirino) that it looked good and suited her.
Although she claimed that she did it in preparation for the boss battle (confused? That's what Kirino said, "In RPGs, don't you need to equip yourself before boss battles? It's the same for me." I'm guessing she's referring to Manami?), Kyousuke knew that her new hairstyle was her way of welcoming him back.

Oh that was great, was indeed a battlefield
So Ayase didn't want to take care of Kyousuke at first until Kirino begged her to? I thought she would blushed and act tsundere about it
Kyousuke's prank text was great, I imagine Kirino's expression reading it xD
Makes me want to play the PSP game sequel more and more >3<

My take on Saori's feelings for Kyousuke (if there ever was any) is based entirely on speculation. I never said she is definitely after Kyousuke, only that I don't think Saori is completely uninterested in him, especially when you consider this plunge into harem territory where almost every girl has taken a liking for Kyousuke.
But does that mean she's going to make a move, as in a serious attempt in gaining Kyousuke's affection? I doubt it, at least not when such a move would threaten the cohesion of her group. Hence her actions in Vol 10 are seen in a comical sense. Could that be a cover up? Was that her way of showing her feelings?
At any rate, we simply don't know enough to come up with a definite answer. Best wait until we know more.
Spoiler for Scene from Vol 10, Chapter 3:
Not only did she stammer, she even blushed while hugging herself later on when Kirino tried to persuade her. And, to quote your own words, So Ayase didn't want to take care of Kyousuke at first until Kirino begged her to? , isn't that how tsunderes function? I'd be more surprised if she accepted without Kirino begging her to.

Wonder if Fushimi will give hint foreshadowing the next novel on the second PSP game. Since some of materials from the first PSP game was used on the current novel, although not exactly the same. Like Kanako now get along well with Kyousuke, Ayase immediately get along with Saori even Saori is Kirino's otaku friend, and the lines of Ayase confession are similar.

As for the next volume, past history would suggest it should be somewhere in the August/September timeframe.

Scotland and the east coast of England will face the worst of the weather, but all parts of the UK could experience snowfall.
Temperatures in 2013 have been mild so far - 10C (50F) was recorded in London on Wednesday - but the mercury is expected to plummet by the end of the week.
Sean Penston, a forecaster with MeteoGroup, the weather division of the Press Association, said: "In the next few days it will start getting colder.
"The minimum temperature in the UK will be into minus figures. By Sunday it could be minus 4 (25F) or minus 5C (23F) in some parts.
"There's more of an easterly wind coming in, with the possibility of snow showers by the weekend and the start of next week.
"It's difficult to say for certain at the moment, but in parts of Scotland there will be quite a bit of snow, as well as the east coast of England. Western areas will be a bit more sheltered from the conditions."

Ahanmisi, Minnesota beat High Point 88-81 in NIT
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Two years ago, Minnesota embraced the National Invitation Tournament enough to reach the championship game.
The Gophers have the depth and talent to win this consolation event if they stay engaged the way many major-conference teams fail to.
Maverick Ahanmisi scored a career-high 21 points, and Minnesota moved on with an 88-81 victory over High Point on Tuesday.
"You find out who wants to keep playing and who doesn't," coach Richard Pitino said.
Joey King had 14 points and seven rebounds and Mo Walker and Andre Hollins each pitched in 13 points for the Gophers (21-13), the top seed in their quadrant. They will host a second-round game on Sunday against either Utah or St. Mary's.
"They had every reason to come out tonight and maybe not be really excited about playing. I know the feeling of being a team that's on the bubble," said High Point coach Scott Cherry, a former South Carolina assistant.
Minnesota is 29-13 over 15 all-time NIT appearances, including two titles and two runner-up finishes.
The lead was as big as 47-32 for the Gophers early in the second half, but the Panthers (16-15) pushed back despite foul trouble for John Brown and Adam Weary, two of their top three scorers. Brown, the Big South Player of the Year award winner, had 19 points in 21 minutes, which matched his season low.
"We can't win games in our league without our two best players. We certainly ain't beating a team out of the Big Ten," Cherry said.
Minnesota, however, had point guard DeAndre Mathieu for only 13 minutes because of a hip injury he aggravated in a fall after a hard foul on his way to the hoop. The Gophers also had a significant size advantage that contributed to the 25 fouls called on the Panthers.
With students on spring break from classes, the arena was only about a quarter full, but the announced crowd of 3,493 was into the game.
King's high-low flip over a double team in the paint found Walker for a dunk late in the first half. Then Austin Hollins chased a steal so hard he had to leap over the High Point bench after reaching the edge of the elevated floor. Hollins hustled back on the court for defense, the Gophers got the ball back and he assisted on King's 3-pointer on the other end with 26 seconds left before the break for a 38-29 lead.
"We love this game. We wanted to play it, regardless of who it is, where it is," Walker said.
Brown dropped down a couple of jaw-dropping dunks off lob passes, but he fouled out with 2:40 left and the Gophers leading by seven. Devante Wallace scored 20 points for the Panthers, who fell to 0-5 all-time against Big Ten teams. That includes a 2008 loss here to the Gophers when Tubby Smith, who played for the Panthers in the early 1970s, was the head coach.
This was the first NIT experience for High Point, which is in just its 15th season of NCAA Division I competition. The Panthers played in the CollegeInsider.com Tournament last year. The first-time Big South regular season champions lost in the quarterfinals of the conference tournament, so Coastal Carolina — which lost to Minnesota here in November — grabbed the automatic NCAA tournament bid instead.
The Gophers were disappointed to be excluded from the NCAA tournament, but they realized where they were headed after losing by 26 points to Wisconsin in the Big Ten quarterfinals last week. They didn't even get together to watch the selection show.
The Gophers had trouble defensively, adjusting to the small lineup the Panthers used, but the effort was obviously there. Ahanmisi, one of three seniors on the team who Pitino has said he regretted not playing more, epitomized that. This game accounted for almost 30 percent of his season scoring.
"Credit goes out to my teammates and my coaches. They've always had confidence in me whether I'm playing or not," he said.

The battle at the summit of world golf is set to continue through a mouth-watering European summer of golf after Luke Donald, who will defend his BMW PGA Championship title next month and Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open crown in July, regained the Number One spot on Sunday.
The 34 year old needed a top-seven finish in the Zurich Classic of New Orleans to regain pole position from Rory McIlroy, and he got it, finishing third at Avondale.
It means the top spot in world golf has changed hands nine times in the last 18 months, with Tiger Woods, Lee Westwood and Martin Kaymer also holding the position.
Donald first reached the top of the Official World Golf Ranking last May after the "Duel on the West", where he beat Lee Westwood in a play-off for the BMW PGA Championship with both the Number One honours and The European Tour's flagship title on the line.
"I had a few wins last year, but I think Wentworth was the most fun and the most enjoyable because I got that World Number One ranking. It just all seemed to happen for a reason that week, at the flagship event of The European Tour, going against Lee who was World Number One and doing it in front of lots of friends and family. Especially having grown up just down the road, it was very special.
"It's a bigger event with the world class field that it attracts, and you always get up for those big events. I'm extremely excited to go back there and defend."
Donald consolidated his position as World Number One with victory at Castle Stuart in July and went on to become the first player in history to win the money lists on both sides of the Atlantic when he won The Race to Dubai and US PGA Tour Money List.
"The Scottish Open is one of the favoured tournaments on The European Tour and I can't wait to get back there. Staging the event on a links encouraged a better field and to have some preparation on this type of course the week before The Open is what everyone is looking for.
"It's a huge event on the Tour schedule and having already won the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth it gave me a significant lead in The Race to Dubai. Every little helps, and winning the Scottish Open was a massive help."
McIlroy took over pole position with victory in the Honda Classic in America and over the last few weeks the baton has been changing hands between the two.
For Donald, a final round of 67 on Sunday followed earlier efforts of 73, 65 and 66 to finish two shots off the pace.
Birdies on the third, ninth, 11th, 13th and 18th holes ensured the Englishman finished on his own in third place at 17 under par.

WESTMINSTER, Md. – The York College softball squad dropped both games of a non-conference doubleheader at McDaniel on Wednesday in their season finale. The Spartans fell 6-1 in games one and then dropped a close 9-7 contest in game two.
With the losses, the Spartans end their 2013 campaign with an overall record of 11-32 and a Capital Athletic Conference record of 2-6.
The Green Terror were the first to get on the board in game taking advantage of a Spartan error and scoring a run in the bottom of the first inning.
The Spartans were able to tie up the game in the top of the third. Aryn Johnston (Bowie, Md./Bowie) was out first, but recorded an RBI after Kayleen Bell (Herndon, Va./Westfield) was able to reach home plate.
McDaniel took back the lead in the following inning, using another Spartan error to their advantage. The Green Terror scored three runs on fours hits in the fourth and then added two more runs in the fifth.
Unfortunately, the Spartans could not muster up any more offense after their run in the third.
Pacing York on offense in game one was Hannah Hugel (Paoli, Pa./Conestoga) as she finished 2-for-4 from the plate. The Spartans only managed six hits through out the seven innings.
McDaniel was led offensively by Rachel Sidney as she finished 3-for-4 from the plate with two runs and two RBI's.
Earning the win in the circle for the Green Terror was Stacey Armacost. She pitched the first five innings of game one, allowing one run on three hits and two strikeouts.
Morgan Levine (Oakland, N.J./Indian Hills) recorded the loss for the Spartans. Levine pitched for 3.2 innings, allowing four runs on seven hits, two walks and one strikeout. Payton Hill (Staunton, Va./Fort Defiance) came in to relieve Levine and allowed two runs on two hits, three walks and one strikeout. Cory Urkuski (Mohnton, Pa./Twin Valley) closed out the final innings, allowing only one hit.
The Spartans were able to get onto the scoreboard first in game two. York scored two runs off of two hits. Hill got things started with a big single to left field, allowing Jena Ruby (Hampstead, Md./North Carroll) and Hugel to score.
The Green Terror came right back to take the lead in the bottom of the inning after scoring four runs on two hits and capitalizing on a Spartan error.
York was able to tie the game up in the top of the second inning with two runs. This time it was the Spartans that took advantage of a fielding error. Sarah Harris (Collegeville, Pa./Methacton) singled to second base, helping Hugel and Cara Rubinaccio (Boonton, N.J./Morris Knolls) score runs on an overthrow.
McDaniel once again had an answer for the Spartans and took back the lead with a one run inning in the bottom of the second.
York responded with three runs in the top of the fourth to take another lead. Hill slammed a triple out to right field that helped Ruby, Hugel and Rubinaccio all earn runs.
The Green Terror managed to gain the lead one last time scoring four runs off three hits in the bottom of the fourth. The four runs put McDaniel up by two, which proved to be enough to make it through the rest of the game.
Hugel led the Spartan offense again in game two. She finished 2-for-4 from the plate with three runs scored. Hill added five RBI's.
McDaniel was paced by Lindsey Blohm who finished 2-for-3 from the plate with one run and two RBI's.
Sara Thacker (Ijamsville, Md./Urbana) recorded the loss for the Spartans. Thacker pitched for one inning in the middle of the game. She allowed two runs on three hits and one walk. Urkuski finished out her Spartan career pitching two innings. She allowed four runs on two hits and two walks. Levine also threw for three innings, allowing three runs on five hits with three walks and one strikeout.
Spartan seniors, Hugel, Harris and Urkuski finished out their Spartan softball careers.
Harris finishes out her four years at York with a batting average of .228. She has played in 98 games with 70 starts. Harris has also tallied 27 runs on 47 hits with 38 RBI's. Her slugging percentage stands at .335 and she finished with a fielding percentage of .980 after committing only seven errors total.
Hugel finishes her four-year career second in the record books for career batting average with a .401 percentage. She has played in 135 games with 126 starts. Hugel finishes with 104 runs on 162 hits and 31 RBI's. Her slugging percentage stands at .426 and her fielding percentage stands at .938.
Urkuski finishes her four-year career with 91 games played and 57 starts. She has recorded a .248 batting average with 10 runs on 37 hits and 17 RBI's. Urkuski recorded a slugging percentage of .302 and finishes with a .936 fielding percentage. She also stepped in the circle for the Spartans. Urkuski finishes with a 5.54 era in 45 appearnces. She registered one save and allowed 85 earned runs on 151 hits. She also recorded 36 total strikeouts.

As part of its series Representing Disability: Disability Studies and the Humanities, the Portland Center for Public Humanities presents a lecture by Susan Schweik:
Ugly Laws Then and Now
Thursday, May 2, 7 p.m.
Smith Memorial Student Union 238 | 1825 SW Broadway (Click here for information about accessing PSU and visitor parking options)
Free and open to the public.
Click here to see a video podcast of this lecture.
This talk explores developments in Portland in which a new and cynical manipulation of the Americans with Disabilities Act pits disability rights against homeless rights. Setting this development in the historical context of a previous ordinance, the infamous "ugly law," that targeted poor disabled people in Portland and elsewhere, I will show how repudiation of that ordinance played a part in the creation of the Americans with Disabilities Act — an act now not only failing to prevent but even actively prescribing the targeting of poor disabled people. The case of Portland provides a broader opportunity to explore the relationship between people and physical space, considering how city ordinances, and even federal civil rights law, can turn people into objects; how at the same time urban objects can enjoy protected status almost as if they were people; and how disability oppression, in the context of classed and capitalist social relations, has played a shifting role in these dynamics. Portland will also provide a location and occasion for exploring the relation between law and poetry (particularly street poetry) as forms of urban expression.
Susan Schweik is Associate Dean of Arts and Humanities and a recipient of the Chancellor's Award for Advancing Institutional Excellence. A former Presidential Chair in Undergraduate Education for Disability Studies at U.C. Berkeley, she has been involved with the development of disability studies at Berkeley for fifteen years. She was co-coordinator of the Ed Roberts Fellowships in Disability Studies post-doctoral program at Berkeley (coordinated by the Institute for Urban and Regional Development). She has taught and co-taught undergraduate courses in Disability and Literature, Discourses of Disability, The Disability Rights Movement, Disability and Digital Storytelling, Psychiatric Disability, Literature and Medicine, and Race, Ethnicity and Disability, among others, and graduate courses in Body Theory and Disability Studies and Advanced Disability Studies. Her other teaching and research interests include twentieth century poetry, late nineteenth century American literature, women's studies and gender theory, urban studies, war literature and children's literature. She is a recipient of Berkeley's Distinguished Teaching Award. Her proudest honor is the name sign given to her by students at Gallaudet.

Court interpreter training planned for Wausau
Wausau, Wisconsin - July 16, 2008
The Director of State Courts Office is accepting applications for interpreter training to be held in Wausau on Aug. 9-10 at UW-Marathon County. While Spanish is the primary language requested by the courts, increased efforts are being made to recruit qualified interpreters for many other languages, in particular Hmong, American Sign Language, Arabic, Somali, Bantu, Vietnamese and Mandarin.
The sessions are for individuals interested in learning the fundamentals of court interpreting and are designed to give participants an overview of the needs and expectations of the court with emphasis on ethical conduct, legal terminology, court procedure, and basic legal interpreting skills. Small group practice exercises will help to develop interpreter skills.
This orientation is intended as an introduction to the complexities of court interpreting, rather than as an in-depth training. Faculty includes judges, attorneys, and experienced court interpreters. A $160 fee covers the sessions, lunches, and materials. Each session will run 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on two consecutive days. UW-Marathon County is located at 518 South 7th Avenue in Wausau.
Applications are encouraged from individuals who are currently interpreting in court proceedings or administrative hearings regularly. The court system also seeks applications from working interpreters in other fields who want to broaden their experience to include legal settings and to bilingual individuals who wish to learn more about the court interpreting profession. Participants who attend the orientation, begin the testing process, and meet other requirements will be placed on a roster of interpreters used by courts, law enforcement agencies, lawyers, and law-related agencies.
This training is part of the Director of State Courts Office Interpreter Program, which aims to improve interpretation and translation in the courts. For more information on these training sessions, and to register, visit the court system Web site at http://wicourts.gov/services/interpreter/training.htm. For more information contact Carmel Capati, Office of Court Operations at email@example.com or (608) 266-8635.

Madigan, Glasgow file suit against ExxonMobil for refinery oil release
Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan and Will County State's Attorney Jim Glasgow have filed a joint lawsuit and are seeking a preliminary injunction against ExxonMobil for an Oct. 19 incident in which the company's refinery released oil in its surrounding area in Channahon Township.
Scott Mulford, Madigan's spokesman, said the lawsuit was filed jointly Wednesday on the basis of potential environmental outcomes.
"The severity of the situation and the allegations of environmental harm that the release of the substance caused was obviously one of the guiding factors in bringing the lawsuit," he said.
According to a press release from the Attorney General's office, the complaint alleges that the oil release occurred as a result of procedural failures at the site's coker unit, which released the oil into the air and fell on homes and farms within a four-mile radius of the refinery.
The refinery is located at Interstate 55 and Arsenal Road. According to the release, Arsenal Road was closed because of slick conditions caused by the oil mixture settling into the road, and oil residue was detected in nearby Jackson Creek and along the Union Pacific Railroad tracks.
The preliminary injunction seeks to require the company to complete an investigation into the incident's cause within a week and to report the findings to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, submit a work schedule for necessary improvements, and report all pollutants and quantities involved in the oil release incident, the release said.
The injunction also seeks to require ExxonMobil to collect water samples in Jackson Creek and soil samples from the Arsenal Road area for analysis, provide equipment maintenance and inspection reports and provide a detailed explanation of the procedures used to restart the coker unit following Oct. 19.
"We're seeking a comprehensive investigation of the cause of the oil release and development of a thorough cleanup plan to ensure that ExxonMobil is held accountable for the environmental impact caused by its refinery's release of oil into the air and land," Madigan said in the release.
Glasgow agreed.
"ExxonMobil must accept full responsibility for the harm this oily mist caused our environment as well as the farms, houses, vehicles, streets and other personal and public property in our surrounding communities," he said. "The preliminary injunction we seek in cooperation with Attorney General Madigan ensures that this incident will be thoroughly investigated and that ExxonMobil will clean up damaged properties and natural resources."
Mulford added that the response to the situation will require serious work on ExxonMobil's behalf going forward.
"It was a serious situation — the county State's Attorney and our office allege environmental harm was done and steps need to be taken to mitigate any problems associated with the incident," he said.
Tricia Simpson, Midwest public and government affairs manager for ExxonMobil Joliet Refinery, provided prepared remarks to the Morris Daily Herald.
"The ExxonMobil Joliet Refinery deeply regrets the release on October 19, 2012, and we apologize to those who were inconvenienced," the remarks said. "ExxonMobil has worked closely with local, state and federal officials from the outset on the initial response, recovery and investigation. The incident is under investigation in cooperation with state and federal regulators. ExxonMobil fully concurs with the requirements in the Attorney General's Agreed Interim Order, most of which were identified and voluntarily initiated in the 12 days since the incident."
A status hearing for the case will take place at 9 a.m. Friday, Nov. 2 in Joliet. Supervising Attorney Rebecca Burlingham and Assistant Attorney General Robert Petti are handling the case for Madigan's Environmental Enforcement Bureau.

"This conference is not like other conferences."
That's what all the speakers at "Re-Imagining Politics and Society" were told before we arrived at New York's Riverside Church. When we addressed the delegates (there were about 1,000, over three days in May), we were to try to solve a very specific problem: the lack of "unity of vision and strategy" guiding the movement against global corporatism.
This was a very serious problem, we were advised. The young activists who went to Seattle to shut down the World Trade Organization and to Washington, DC, to protest the World Bank and the IMF had been getting hammered in the press as tree-wearing, lamb-costumed, drumbeating bubble brains. Our mission, according to the conference organizers at the Foundation for Ethics and Meaning, was to whip that chaos on the streets into some kind of structured, media-friendly shape. This wasn't just another talk shop. We were going to "give birth to a unified movement for holistic social, economic and political change."

Friends of Stroud Township resident Schuyler "Sky" McAndrew, 20, remembered him on Wednesday as someone with a huge passion for music, who was gifted at math and a good listener.
Friends of Stroud Township resident Schuyler "Sky" McAndrew, 20, remembered him on Wednesday as someone with a huge passion for music, who was gifted at math and a good listener.
McAndrew, who played lead guitar for the local punk rock band Born for This, died of an asthma attack on Jan. 26, according to a YouTube tribute posted by his friends.
"Sky was honestly the greatest person I've ever met. He was gifted in so many ways," said Alexis Poster, 18, of East Stroudsburg, who was one of McAndrew's best friends.
McAndrew, who graduated from Stroudsburg High School in 2010 and had attended Kutztown University, had been playing music for more than five years. He and Born for This played at the Sherman Theater in Stroudsburg as well as the Crocodile Rock Cafe, a well-known venue in Allentown.
"If you've ever been to a show at the Poconos, you probably met Sky," said Joe Ragosta, lead singer for the popular local punk band Patent Pending.
In his YouTube video, Ragosta recounted a time when McAndrew stopped in the middle of his set at the Sherman Theater to vigorously wave hello to Ragosta in the audience.
"It's funny to me because he was just playing a song. He had a responsibility (up there on stage) and the whole band was taking it seriously and playing a song. But to Sky it was more important to be like, 'What's up man? How are you?' And that's just the kind of person Sky was. He was just happy to be where he was with the people he was with."
In addition to McAndrew's personable manner and his enthusiasm for music, he was remembered as a good listener.
"He could listen and understand everything you're saying when you're not even making sense. He had a way to let someone know that they are special in their own way," Poster said.
Poster said that Sky recently planned to go back to school to become a math professor. "Sky was great in math. He was able to solve full algebra questions in his head, no problem," she said.
McAndrew was also a sports enthusiast. He liked to play the game NBA 2K. "He was great, no one could beat him," Poster said. His favorite football team was the Dallas Cowboys.
McAndrew's funeral service will be held at noon Saturday at Stroudsburg Wesleyan Church on North Fifth Street. A viewing will be held from 10 a.m. to noon.

Partnership for Lebanon Builds Hope, Economic Stability in Middle Eastern Nation
In 2006, then-President George Bush reached out to Cisco and other major corporations. He wanted to see how the business sector could help the Middle Eastern nation recover from a conflict that had displaced one-quarter of its population and destroyed entire communities.
Cisco CEO John Chambers traveled to Lebanon, and he was moved by what he saw. Tremendous structural damage was everywhere. Businesses struggled to recover from the crisis, limiting job opportunities. Lebanon's slow and expensive information technology infrastructure cut off its residents from the rest of the global marketplace.
Even worse, its young people – known for being smart, creative, well educated, and energetic – had lost hope for the future. They felt they had to leave Lebanon to find professional success.
From this visit, the Partnership for Lebanon was born. Cisco and four other corporations – Intel, Microsoft, GHAFARI, Inc. and Occidental Petroleum – joined forces to help Lebanon improve its networking technology infrastructure and move its people toward long-term economic growth and stability.
To achieve the goal, Cisco committed to investing US$20 million in a variety of programs. But its involvement went far beyond financial capital. The company dedicated technology networks – its own products – and assembled human networks – its employees, Lebanese government officials, business people, and staff and volunteers from nonprofit organizations – to build programs that would be meaningful and sustainable for years to come.
"We saw a country that could achieve many goals itself, but with proper assistance could achieve them at a much faster pace and rebuild the country for the future, not just rebuild back to where it was before," John said after his visit.
Ingrid Salloum is one Partnership for Lebanon success story. She worked as an intern at Cisco headquarters in San Jose, California – one of 100 young Lebanese people to gain valuable, hands-on job skills and professional connections while working for six months at home or abroad.
"The Partnership for Lebanon and its internship program changed my life and the lives of my fellow interns forever," Ingrid said. "It has given me hope that, moving forward, not only is there a possibility for a future in Lebanon, but that in some small way, with my acquired training and skill set, I could play a role in shaping that future."
In the spirit of the program — to reverse "brain drain" of educated people from Lebanon – Cisco helped place interns in full-time jobs, whether with Cisco or partner companies, in Lebanon. Ninety percent of the interns found employment in their home country since completing their internships. Ingrid, for example, now works full-time as a Cisco project manager for global education, based in Beirut.
The partnership also sought to engage young Lebanese students with technology early and often. For those of us living in the United States, it's the rule, not the exception, that public schools are equipped with Internet access. But in Lebanon, not one public school was wired before the 2006 conflict.
Through the Partnership for Lebanon, Cisco connected 52 public secondary schools, provided Flip video cameras, and trained teachers and students to use technology in the classroom.
Soon, the students were using the Internet to do basic research, making videos and uploading them for others to see, and creating presentations that teachers in other classrooms could use.
The Lebanese Ministry of Education was so impressed by the benefits of using technology in the classroom that officials committed to wiring the rest of the public schools and equipping them with broadband access.
The Partnership for Lebanon officially ended in July 2011, but its impact will continue, thanks to the human networks created over the last five years.
With a US$1 million grant from Cisco, two microfinance institutions (Al Majmoua and Ameen) have disbursed more than 720 loans of about $2,000 each to help people integrate technology into their small businesses. The loans are being repaid quickly, keeping the cash flowing so even more people can apply for loans and grow their businesses.
Those who received loans include a mechanic who bought a diagnostic computer, a photographer who bought a high-resolution printer, and a designer who hired two new employees.
In its final act with the Partnership for Lebanon, Cisco will make a US$10 million investment of venture capital in promising small- and medium-sized businesses – an infusion of cash that will create jobs in Lebanon and stimulate its economy.
We only have space in this blog post to cover a few of the dozens of programs that comprised the Partnership for Lebanon. But even these few examples illustrate how partnerships between private companies, nonprofit organizations, and public agencies – when combined with technology — can bring meaningful, long-term growth, and prosperity to people in all parts of the world.
What social issues are you passionate about? How could technology and human networks be combined to multiply the impact for people in need? Please share your ideas or examples!

Richard Sherman's 20 seconds of ranting about Michael Crabtree following the NFC Championship Game has caused a media stir the past two weeks. At Super Bowl Media Day, the Seattle Seahawks cornerback wished he'd have focused on his own teammates.
"Last week I feel like I regretted attacking the man, attacking it and taking away from my teammates," Sherman said. "You never want to talk down on a man to build yourself up and things like that. So I regretted that and I regretted taking attention away from my teammates and that is one thing I wish I could do again."
Surrounded by the media horde Tuesday, Sherman told the multitude of reporters they should focus more on his teammates this week. He then listed superlatives about seemingly every player on the Seahawks' roster.
"I think these cameras should go to my teammates," he said. "I think these cameras could be around anyone. I think that what happened after the game, the situation that occurred, forced them to be around me and forced everybody's attention, but I think I have the best teammates in the world."
Sherman said the Legion of Boom is bigger than one man and all will need to play in concert to beat Peyton Manning in Super Bowl XLVIII.

FT.com has been giving its mobile site a makeover, launching a new version which matches the pink look of the website, and has also been optimised for smartphone users.
I looked at a few mobile newspaper sites recently, and haven't been all that impressed so far, especially with those from UK publishers, so how well does FT.com translate to mobile?
One mistake the FT mobile site avoids is the need for any kind of registration process as on Guardian mobile, or to send a text to receive a link to the mobile site, as with Times Mobile. All you need to do is visit m.FT.com.
Some mobile best practice advice says that websites should detect these users and automatically divert them to the mobile version, as this saves them hunting around for the link, though users may appreciate having the choice. A clearer link to the mobile version from the standard website would be helpful though.
The mobile site has been simplified well for mobile though, and there is plenty of content available. Headlines are presented with a few lines of text so users can better decide whether to click, while a table halfway down the page gives the latest markets data, which can also be customised so users can keep an eye on certain markets or stocks:
The site is fast to browse, well laid out with simple navigation and an effective site search option. Users can scroll through the top three stories in each section, click on the section headers to see more World, UK or Business news, while the menu at the bottom of the page offers other areas of the site, or the ability to set content specific to your region:
The pink background has been carried over from the new FT.com website, and though the revamped site has been criticised for lack of contrast due to the colour of the background, it seems easy enough to read on a mobile screen.
While the standard FT.com requires users to subscribe to view more than
20 articles, the mobile version has no such restrictions, though the
Lex column is out of bounds to non-subscribers.
According to the press release, around 60% of the mobile site's users have either Blackberrys or iPhones, so optimising for these devices is a smart move, and it does work well and looks good on an iPhone. Other UK news sites have not yet optimised for smartphones, and the look and feel of the Guardian and Times sites is way behind that of the new FT.com mobile site.
FT.com also plans to introduce an iPhone app to further enhance the user experience on the site, which is a good idea considering the site's audience. The New York Times has done this and it is the best way to view the site on mobile, providing better and quicker navigation than its already good mobile site.
FT.com has produced the best mobile site I have seen of all the UK newspapers so far, the web version has been simplified effectively for the small screen; the site is easy to read and navigate, with a good range of news and content.

PROBLEM: Winter months bring cooler temperatures, often causing hydraulic fluid stored in reservoirs to become thick and sluggish. Startup can shorten the life of the system's pump because the fluid temperature is too low. What can you do?
SOLUTION: Install a hydraulic fluid immersion heater into your hydraulic or lube oil reservoir. A low-watt density heater is used to prevent fluid damage. Heater sizing will vary depending on numerous variables. These hydraulic fluid heaters are available with adjustable thermostats allowing the oil to be heated overnight so that you can control your start-up temperature. Weather-resistant terminal enclosures are also available allowing these heaters to be installed on outdoor equipment or in areas where wash down conditions exist.
Hydraulic fluid heaters ensure easy flow
When exposed to cooler temperatures, reservoirs storing hydraulic fluid often need to be heated. Cool hydraulic fluid can suffer from poor flow rates resulting in sluggish performance. To ensure easy flow, Warren Electric Corp.'s hydraulic fluid heaters are used to maintain the fluid at a desired temperature.
Warren Electric Corp.'s tubular element heaters are designed to be directly immersed in hydraulic fluid. These heaters are often installed horizontally near the bottom of the tank/reservoir or can be inserted in a casing.
Warren Electric Corp. cataloged "HL" series heaters are designed from 0.5 to 12 kW for mounting via 2, 2½, and 3 in. NPT screw plugs as well as Warren Electric Corp.'s 4 in.-OD flange ("A/B") mount. Additional kWs, NPT or flange sizes are available upon request. Click here for WEC hydraulic heater catalog.
Warren Electric Corp. also has the capability to manufacture custom hydraulic fluid heaters to meet your unique application requirements. The Warren Electric Corp. Hydraulic Fluid "Quick Quote" Form is a convenient means to receive sizing and quote assistance. Click here for Hydraulic Fluid Quick Quote.
When determining what size heater is needed for a hydraulic fluid reservoir, variables that are taken into consideration when sizing a hydraulic fluid heater include:
- Volume to be heated
- Dimensions and capacity of tank
- Thickness of insulation on tank (if any)
- Temperature to maintain, worst case ambient temperature and desired heat-up time if tank is allowed to cool during non-operating periods
- Available operating voltage and phase
- Environmental operating conditions to select the proper terminal enclosure
- Desired temperature controls (available with or without thermostat, thermocouple or over-temperature cut out devices)
- Flow rate, desired inlet and outlet temperatures if heater will be used in a casing
Typically, hydraulic fluid heaters have a low watt density, approximately 10-12 WSI. This prevents the fluid and/or the heater from being damaged while heated.
Temperature controls are needed to ensure desired temperatures are maintained when heating fluid in a reservoir. A 60° to 250°F (16° to 121°C) SPST Integral Thermostat is most commonly used. However, thermostats with other temperature ranges, thermowells or thermocouples can be used. Click here for thermostat information.
Reservoir location and environmental conditions should be taken into consideration when selecting terminal enclosures. Warren Electric Corp.'s hydraulic fluid heaters are provided with a heavy-duty general purpose terminal enclosure. If needed, weather-resistant, dust-resistant, explosion-resistant, weather-resistant, and explosion resistant terminal enclosures are also available, upon request. Click here for information on terminal enclosures.
Heaters with casings are referred to as circulation heaters. Hydraulic fluid enters the casing through an inlet, is heated as it flows past the elements, and then exits the casing via an outlet. Circulation heaters are available with or without insulation. Warren Electric Corp. is also able to supply you with a casing designed for your specific application.
For more information, call Warren Electric Corp., 36 Franklin StreetWarren, RI 02885, at 401) 245-3700, fax (401) 245-9331, email [email protected], or visit www.warrenelectriccorp.com.

Looking to add some new iron to your farm in the next few months?
Auction prices for used machinery stayed strong through the end of 2013. "I was thinking values would probably be flat, given the more profit-challenged environment we're in," says Greg Peterson, who tracks the equipment market and is Farm Journal Media's used equipment values expert.
Peterson, who spoke at the recent Tomorrow's Top Producer conference and Top Producer Seminar in Chicago, Ill., says so far in 2014, auction prices have remained strong, which is typical. "Farmers need to be aware of what's happening in the used machinery market to buy at good prices," he says.
If you do want to add some new iron to your operation in the next few months, here are Peterson's top tips.
Consider alternative auctions.
Typically, Peterson says, used machinery goes for the highest price at farm auctions. Buyers know the seller and know the history of the machinery.
"You see big premiums on farm auctions," he says. "I think folks need to look at other types of auctions, such as consignments, dealer auctions and online auctions, as a buying opportunity." Peterson says equipment tends to go for around 10% less than farm auctions. "With elevated used equipment values, if you can save 8% on a $200,000 item, that's a good savings," he says.
Know the market's rhythm.
Timing is important when it comes to buying used machinery. Peterson says the first and fourth quarters tend to have the highest prices, while the second quarter shows softer used machinery prices. "With the Section 179 down to $25,000 and no guidance on what will happen, the second quarter might be even softer," he says.
Section 179 of the Internal Revenue Service tax code allows for an immediate income write-off for any business asset purchase (new or used) made during that calendar year. In 2013, it was at an all-time high of $500,000. There's still a chance the price level may be increased, but this uncertainty is keeping many farmers from big-time machinery purchases, Peterson thinks.
Buy the right aged equipment.
Petterson, who has been tracking used machinery prices for around 25 years, says the biggest trend he's seen develop in the market is age of equipment. He says farmers should aim to buy machines that are between three and eight years old. He says they will hold their value the best. "The market sees machines that are 10 to 12 years old and much older and less valuable," he says.
Don't let your emotions run wild.
Live auctions are known to be high energy. Peterson says while that makes them fun to attend, farmers must learn to stay focus the true value of the machinery. "If you are buying, you need to strip out the emotion as much as you can," he says.
His advice is to do all of your homework before you attend the sale. Know what the item is worth and stay solid at that level.
Take good care of your machinery.
While many might think the color of a machine or the local market are the biggest factors in determining a price level, Peterson says it all comes down to condition. "There is a lot of demand for good, older equipment," he says. "If equipment is under 10 years old but in good condition, it is going up in value. It literally pays to take good care of your equipment."

Cut out the sleeve option you would like to use.
A little tip I learned from my mom: In order to get both strings to the back side of your shirt, so you do not have any strings hanging there in the front, pull the back string up towards the neckline and you will see that it forms a small loop. Pull out that loop with a pin and the front string will come back to the other side. You can now tie them together and cut them off. This leaves a clean seam in the front.
With right sides together, sew your shoulder seams.
Cut each facing piece on the fold out of your knit fabric and your interfacing.
Iron the interfacing to the wrong side of the knit fabric.
Now take your facing and sew the short ends together, right sides facing. If you want you can serge or zigzag the edge of the facing, or leave it raw. You should now have a ring.
Lining up the raw edges, pin the facing to the neckline of your shirt. Make sure your front facing is pinned to the front of your shirt (where the pleats are).
You now have what looks like a tank top.
Lay your top flat and straighten out the bottom, cutting off any extra material.
Cut two long strips of your knit fabric, 4 inches shorter than the width of your bodice. Make them about 6 inches wide. Sew them right sides together on the short sides. You should now have a loop. Fold your loop in half and press. Now line your loop up with the bottom of your shirt, raw edges together and sew along the entire hem (half an inch seam allowance). Flip the band down and press.

Murder charges have been filed in the shooting death of a 15-year-old boy blocks from President Barack Obama's Hyde Park home earlier this year.
Kevin Culverson, 20, is accused of shooting Cornelius German in the back as the boy ran for cover following a dice game in the backyard of a home in the 5000 block of South Evans Avenue on April 22, police said. Culverson is charged with first-degree murder and is due in court today.
Culverson lives in the 700 block of East 50th Place, about a block from the shooting.
Cornelius had called his parents that night and asked them to come pick him up at a Walgreens at East 50th Place and South Cottage Grove Avenue, saying he was afraid to go to the bus stop because of recent gang troubles there, according to his mother, Timika Rutledge-German.
But when the couple arrived around 9:30 p.m., he was nowhere to be seen and his mother called his cellphone and his friend's phone, she said. As they waited in the parking lot, they saw crowds of young men walking away and police blocking off an area, she said.
An officer told the mother that a boy had been shot. Rutledge-German said she walked to the back yard and saw a body surrounded by police. "I knew it was my baby 'cause I saw his shoes," she said. "And I saw his jacket. I knew it was him."
Cornelius was slain just a short walk from the Secret Service-protected Obama house, but in a vastly different neighborhood still troubled by crime. The location of the shooting is made up of modest brick multi-unit buildings and is directly across the street from Washington Park.
The shooting echoed the slaying of Hadiya Pendleton, an honors student, also 15, whose shooting in January in Harsh Park, about a mile north of the president's residence, brought international attention to Chicago's gun violence.

Lloris, Adebayor going nowhere, says Sherwood
Tottenham head coach Tim Sherwood expects goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and striker Emmanuel Adebayor to remain at White Hart Lane.
France stopper Lloris has previously stated his desire to play UEFA Champions League football next season, but looks unlikely to do so with Tottenham after the club lost ground in the race for a top-four finish in the Premier League.
Adebayor, meanwhile, has impressed since Sherwood succeeded Andre Villas-Boas in December, scoring 10 goals under the Englishman.
Sherwood does not envisage either player moving on in the close-season, suggesting it would take a world-record bid for Tottenham to consider selling Lloris, who arrived from Lyon in September 2012.
"He is one of the best keepers around. Of course, people are going to want him. But I'm also sure the club won't be tempted to get rid of him," Sherwood is quoted as saying in the English media.
"He is one of the top goalies and unless someone is going to spend £100million on him - and keepers do not get bought for that money - I don't think he will leave.
"It was only that kind of figure that tempted the club to sell Gareth Bale - and he desperately wanted to leave and progress his career at Real Madrid.
"He hasn't got to play a blinder for France at the World Cup because people already know what he can do. They know he is a fantastic goalie.
"Even if he was terrible for France, I don't think it would make a difference as to how people view him. Everyone can recognise it.
"He has never said to me or anyone else at the club that he wants to leave. And he does not perform like he wants to leave. He gives everything all the time and that is why he is a favourite of the players and fans."
Quizzed on the future of Adebayor, Sherwood added: "I'm sure he wants to be part of the future here. I don't think he wants to keep moving clubs.
"Adebayor is a pleasure to work with and is a good role model for younger players. He trains excellently, conducts himself well and I've never had a problem with him.
"He has married his talent with a top attitude and has been reaping the rewards since I got here.
"His family is settled in London and he just wants to help us win as many games as possible."

Around 80 IUCN members representing governments and civil societies from the West Asia, Central Asia and North Africa region are gathering in Tehran – Iran during May 22-25, 2007 to develop the regional conservation agenda.
This agenda will then be used to influence the global conservation trends through the IUCN 4th World Conservation Congress which will gather IUCN members around the world. Participants will discuss recent priorities and ideas related to Community Centered Conservation and sustainable development in the region during The 6th Regional Conservation Forum (RCF) organized by The World Conservation Union – IUCN, West Asia, Central Asia & North Africa (WESCANA) Regional Office and the Iranian Department of Environment (DoE).
The main aim of this forum is to provide members of the Union and the wider conservation community, with an opportunity to prepare for an effective regional participation in the Barcelona Congress. This is the only chance that members can take to submit draft motions they might wish to propose to the Congress. The forum will focus on the theme "Community Centered Conservation: Linking Local & Global Knowledge". Participants will be updated on recent preparations of the Congress and an update on the IUCN Global Programme 2009-2012 that will focus on the latest conservation trends that IUCN should pay attention to in the upcoming years, such as Climate Change, Renewable Energy, and Poverty Reduction and Security.
An extensive debate will be devoted during the forum on issues of community based conservation that are of particular importance to the region, specifically through the thematic technical sessions on Protected Areas, Ecosystem Goods and Services in Drylands, Waqf for Sustainable Development, as well as Gender, Equity & Poverty. Sub-regional groups from West Asia, North Africa, and Central Asia will be formed to discuss main issues, gaps and priorities for their specific sub-regions. A field trip will be organized on the last day of the forum by the Iranian government to one of the important protected areas in Iran.

Patent trolls abuse system
As the Obama administration starts its second term, we look forward to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and Congress taking concrete steps to address the growing problem of patent trolls. When Thomas Jefferson, our first patent examiner and a renowned inventor, said that the 1790 passage of our first patent law gave "a spring to invention beyond his conception," he couldn't have foreseen the ways that 21st-century patent trolls would come to exploit flaws in the system. This anti-competitive patent behavior is creating a drag on our economy, costing us jobs and putting a tax on our most innovative consumer products.
Patent trolls, sometimes called nonpracticing entities or patent assertion entities, don't make anything of value to consumers. Instead, they profit by taxing and even blocking the goods and services consumers want most. The trolls' weapons of choice are software patents, which often make sweeping claims to monopoly rights over every software approach to a problem. As patent expert Mark Lemley argues, the patent office would never allow the inventor of a new jackhammer to patent every method for breaking rocks, but too often software patents claim every method of doing something using a computer.
Story Continued Below
The trolls are thriving in a system awash in software patents. The sheer number of software patents has skyrocketed: By some estimates, there are now around a million software patents. And many new consumer technologies incorporate thousands of incremental hardware and software innovations, each of which can be patented. By one estimate, 250,000 patents make claims on the smartphone in your pocket. This flood of patents leads to confusing, overlapping patent rights and crowds out would-be innovators.
Given the ease of making infringement claims and the potential for lottery-ticket payouts, trolls are filing four times as many cases today as they did in 2005. Troll lawsuits now account for an astonishing 61 percent of all patent litigation and are disproportionately aimed at small companies, who are often forced to settle rather than pay millions in legal fees.

Julie Edmister earned her BA in English from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences in 1972.
Read the original article here.
A native Oregonian, Edmister received her B.A. degree from Portland State University and her Ph.D. in education from Florida State University. She enjoyed a 20-plus-year career in higher education as a university professor and dean that took her to Mississippi, Ohio, Indiana and Florida.
Before working in higher education, Edmister was a senior manager with Arthur Andersen & Co.'s Change Management practice area in Washington, D.C.
She moved to Naples two years ago from Indiana and recently joined Premier Sotheby's International Realty in Marco Island, where she is a sales associate with M.L. Meade's residential team.
Edmister is vice president of the Friends of Rookery Bay, the support group for the 110,000-acre national estuary that surrounds Marco Island. She is also an active member of the American Business Women's Association and an action-committee member with the Naples Chamber. She is an avid sports enthusiast, enjoying biking and spinning as well as kayaking and boating.
She has two stepchildren and loves spending time with them and their families in Oakland, Calif., and Potomac, Md.
Edmister joined Leadership Marco to gain a better understanding of the services and resources available to residents and visitors on Marco Island.
"I want to help promote and preserve the amazing natural resources that we are so fortunate to enjoy in Marco Island and Southwest Florida," she says.
As for any pressing issues on Marco right now, Edmister believes soil erosion needs attention.
"It impacts recreational enjoyment for residents and tourists as well as the important nesting area for endangered sea turtles," she says.
How does a 2020 Marco Island look to Edmister?
"With baby boomers retiring, more and more retirees will be moving to Marco Island to enjoy its natural beauty. Marco Island will continue to be recognized as a wonderful place to live," she says.
