Tracy v. NVR, Inc., 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 44350 (W.D.N.Y. Mar. 26, 2012)
To answer that question briefly: typically, no litigation hold letters are not discoverable. However, there is catch, which the Western District of New York ("WDNY") has recently adopted. On March 26, 2012, the WDNY adopted the Major Tours, Inc.[1] principle that litigation hold letters are generally not discoverable as they are ordinarily protected by either attorney-client privilege or work product protections, unless a preliminary showing of spoliation is made.
In Tracy v. NVR, Inc., 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 44350 (W.D.N.Y. Mar. 26, 2012), the Plaintiff commenced a collective action against the defendant, a public corporation engaged in the construction of homes, alleging similarly-situated employees of NVR were unlawfully denied overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act and the New York Labor Law. After almost eight years of litigation and dozens of discovery disputes, the Plaintiffs moved to compel the Defendant to produce its litigation hold letters and a list of employees who received those notices.
Under the well-established Zubulake principle, a party must preserve "what it knows, or reasonably should know, is relevant to the action, is reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence, is reasonably likely to be requested during discovery and/or is the subject of a pending discovery request." Often this duty of preservation leads to spoliation issues due to parties failing to completely preserve evidence or forgetting to issue litigation hold letters to its key players in the case. Unlike most cases, however, in this case, the Plaintiffs did not seek a finding that Defendant spoliated such evidence. Rather, the Plaintiff requested that the Court issue an order requiring defendant to produce its litigation hold letters, presumably as part of its assessment whether a full-blown spoliation motion is justified.
In this matter of first impression, the Court looked to precedent established in a New JerseyDistrict court:
In seeking disclosure of NVR's litigation hold notice and a list of its recipients, plaintiffs rely primarily on Major Tours, Inc. v. Colorel, 2009 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 68128, 2009 WL 2413631 (D.N.J. 2009). In Major Tours, the court held that litigation hold letters are generally protected from discovery as privileged or attorney-work product unless a preliminary showing of spoliation is made. 2009 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 68128, 2009 WL 2413631 at *2. The court further held that a party need not prevail on a separate spoliation motion in order to compel production of litigation hold letters. 2009 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 68128, [WL] at *2. Rather, a party need only make a preliminary showing of spoliation, which may be established by deposition testimony demonstrating the destruction of documents or the absence of a preservation order. Id.
In seeking disclosure of NVR's litigation hold notice and a list of its recipients, plaintiffs rely primarily on Major Tours, Inc. v. Colorel, 2009 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 68128, 2009 WL 2413631 (D.N.J. 2009). In Major Tours, the court held that litigation hold letters are generally protected from discovery as privileged or attorney-work product unless a preliminary showing of spoliation is made. 2009 U.S. Dist.

Rather, a party need only make a preliminary showing of spoliation, which may be established by deposition testimony demonstrating the destruction of documents or the absence of a preservation order. Id.
The Court agreed with the reasoning of Major Tours; however, the court ultimately denied the Plaintiffs' motion seeking to compel the Defendants' litigation hold letters. The court, however, noted that the Second Circuit has not addressed whether such a motion required a lesser standard of proof than a motion seeking spoliation sanctions. The court did not rule affirmatively on the applicable standard as there was no need to answer that particular question because "even under the more relaxed 'preliminary showing of spoliation' standard, [P]laintiffs' motion should be denied."

The lovely setting, specifically the fabulous feeling that I had each evening sitting outside before bed. By then, the temperature is absolutely perfect and you can reflect on the experiences of the past day. Very little. All the moronic statements made by some travelers regarding quality, internet, temperature, bugs, etc. are reflection on their ignorance and personality. It appears those were folks that had a few free days between world cup matches.

Winter Blues a Children's poem
Snow on the ground and all around.
Harsh wind on my back blowing me in every direction.
It's so cold outside.
Across the road some children have built a snowman. He has no eyes, no nose, no mouth.
The winter is the worst season for me but I was born in January one of the coldest winter months so what can I say.
The coldest month just days after my birthday is in February.
Temperatures get so low and snow turns to ice and black ice always scares me.
This winter I haven't fallen so thank the Lord for that!

- After several days trying to figure out how to boot my old Mac mini into Linux, Infinally succeeded and installed the machine here at MakerCave. My Samsung SyncMaster T22B350 has a separate VGA input, so I hooked up the Mac mini to that. The FreeGeek Desktop uses the HDMI input. With the remote, I can easily swap back and forth between the inputs; one monitor, two computers. I added an USB 2.0 Sharing Switch, and now one wireless keyboard and mouse, two computers.

|Compiling Ant on Linux...classic/modern javac not detected.
|Mon, 11 Dec 2000 06:42:49 GMT
Hi all, Apologies if this is already discussed, as I can't find an archive of this list... Question: When trying to build Ant on linux (RH 6.2) the build process complains that it can't find a classic compiler. I have several jdks and have now tried them all. I have also tried setting the compiler property to "modern" in build.xml, no joy. My classpath, path, java_home all look correct, does anybody know what magic needs to be woven for Ant to recognise a linux java compiler as either modern or classic ?? If it would just simply use the javac in my path (blackdown 1.3) I would be ecstatic. p.s. Seems odd that Ant is lining itself up for a problem experienced by the arts community. By defining v1.3 as modern, will we wind up dealing with compiler settings such as post-modern, very-modern, ultra-modern, still-got-its-price-tag, et all? Thanks for any tips, Dave Elliot ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Demetrio Albertini reportedly has in mind a reduced Serie A and the introduction of B teams to Italian football, if he becomes FIGC President.
Current President Giancarlo Abete also handed in his 'irrevocable resignation' following Italy's early exit from the 2014 World Cup, and the race to replace him is now seen as between Carlo Tavecchio, current President of the National Amateur League and Albertini, current Football Federation Vice-President.
Whilst Tavecchio is seen as the early favourite to take the role, details have emerged on former Milan midfielder Albertini's apparent plans if he were to take charge.
Tuttosport report that the 42-year-old would intend to reduce Serie A back to 18 teams, 'to make it more competitive' and to boost teams' performance in European competition.
Albertini is also apparently interested in adopting the model used by the Spanish League, that allows clubs to enter B teams into lower divisions, to allow further game time for Serie A players.
It is also believed that he is proposing a reduction in the number of foreigners in the Italian top flight.
Keep up to date with the latest news and action from Spain's Primera Division with Football Espana - from the team behind Football Italia.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 nights
This is a vacation room on the Caribbean Island Margarita, 100 m from the water park (Parque de Aqua), 300 m from the beach. The room has air conditioning, bathroom/ WC, terrace, hammocks and parking places on the estate. You can rent the room for a minimum price of 25 Euro per day. Here, on the Margarita Island everything is very convenient: for example 30 Cent for a bier, rum for 2 Euro, a tankful of fuel for only 1.5 Euro, etc. Within a short distance, you will reach the beaches: Playa el Agua, Playa Parquito, and Playa Manzanillo. The shuttle service from the Porlamar airport or from the ferry ports is included for stays longer than 14 days. Condor / Thomas Cook fly from Frankfurt am Main directly to the Margarita Island 4 times a week. There are about 45 minutes by car to the airport and 50 minutes by car to the ferry harbour. The climate is constant all the year through. Although the island is increasingly popular, it is still not affected by mass tourism.
Car rental: You can book a rental car and a roller here.
Description of the surroundings: Island trips, adventurous mainland tours, individual wellness programmes, Spanish language courses, diving and snorkelling, body surfing, tennis, hiking and mountain tours, wellness, fitness, golf, riding, and something for everybody's taste can be found here. Pampatar, a quiet and beautiful town was founded in 1530 and has an Indian name that can be translated into 'The Salt Town', as it hosts a salt mine even nowadays. You can discover a lot of mystical and beautiful attractions in this charming town, and you will be impressed with the noble, old, colonial buildings. The Spanish settled here mostly thanks to the strategic position, the deep water and the quiet harbours, as well as thanks to the natural salt deposit. Yachts, ships and wood boats are anchored in the bay and form a picturesque landscape. There are 10 km to Porlamar.
Miscellaneous: What is the present exchange rate? The official exchange course of Venezuela is 2150 Bolivars/ US$ 1 (October, 26th, 2006). You can bring Euro with you as well (better exchange rate). At the end of January 2003, the Government of Venezuela started an exchange rate control in order to protect the Bolivar. As a tourist, the best thing to do is to bring Euros with you. We also recommend credit cards, only that at the bank, you will receive money according to the official exchange rate, minus fees. We also recommend that you ask in the hotel or in the guest house where you can find the best exchange course. Most things on Margarita Island have convenient prices, as we belong to Venezuela, unlike the other Caribbean Island. Margarita is also a duty free zone.
El Tirano is located in the close vicinity of Playa el Agua. Within 50 m, you can find a supermarket, a pharmacy, a bakery, etc. The amusement park Parque el Aqua is directly in front of our house. It is idea for families and self catering. Bus station or taxi ca be reached in only 2 minutes, yet we have still a very quiet location. The coast of Playa El Aqua is he most beautiful and popular beach on the Margarita Island. There are good restaurants, a colourful market, sports and shopping facilities. In Porlamar, the capital of Margarita, you have the possibility to shop for convenient prices, as Margarita is a duty-free island. You can also enjoy the typical night life in the beach bars, or the discos, the night clubs and casinos in Porlamar. Besides, you can also enjoy the mountainous panorama and make trips with the Jeep.

I THINK THE DOORBELL RANG and I wonder how long ago that was and how long I've been awake. Days? Weeks? Minutes? Did I just wake up? I turn on the light next to my bed, sit up, and rub the sleep—no, not sleep—the nothing out of my eyes. I do it like a habit, like it helps, like I remember what sleep felt like, what being anything but tired felt like. Still fully dressed on top of my bedding, I grab my gun off the nightstand and walk downstairs.
The doorbell rings again, if it wasn't real before it is now. All the lights off, I pretend I see out the peephole. It's either very late or very early and there's someone there, a shadow, but who and why? Feeling like Jack Nicholson, I jerk open the door pointing my gun through at the visitor, and there she stands with a suitcase in hand, a blue sundress hanging from her narrow shoulders, and a smile draped across her lips with that sickle moon scar in the left corner because her father was a right-handed temperamental alcoholic. Her right eye still doesn't open all the way. I'm left-handed.
'Can I come in?'
Six months ago, she nearly killed me or I almost killed myself or tried to kill both of us—maybe ten months ago. Probably a year.
My head becomes a civil war, one-half love and one half-cruel. I look at her face and want to bite her neck and rip out her throat, kiss her lips and hold her, whisper in her ear and say everything's all right, grill her heart and feed it to dogs, put a bullet in her skull while her severed hands wrap around my still beating heart: I want her to love me, to be able to love.
She stares back at me still waiting for a reply. I can't control my mouth, my expression—scowling or smiling—impossible for me to tell.
'Gonna let me in?'
'You need to call someone?'
She glides past me to the kitchen and I wonder when the phone bill was paid last. 'Do you still keep vodka in the freezer?' The scent of lily fills the hallway.
'How did you get here?' The sound of cabinets opening and closing reaches me. No car in the driveway or on the street, close the door and walk towards the kitchen, 'I don't see your car.'
'The dishwasher! You made a new hiding spot. Clever.' She holds a half liter of Philip's and two coffee cups. 'You know, you don't have any glasses. What happened to all the glasses we used to have?' She sets down the cups and fills them with ice and vodka.
I put the gun down on the counter and take the cup she hands me. 'I don't drink anymore.'
'Then why only half a bottle?'
I sip at the vodka—insect repellent—cringing, flies fall from the sky and deathcurl on the floor like sullied snowflakes.
'Not my fault you buy shit.' She stirs with her finger and our eyes meet. 'Were you gonna shoot me or something?' She raises an eyebrow to the gun.

Diego Forlan's agent is waiting for Inter to sell Samuel Eto'o to Anzhi before making their move for the Atletico Madrid striker.
The Uruguayan international has been pinpointed as the ideal replacement should Eto'o move to Russia for around €29m.
"As of today, I have still not spoken to anyone from Inter," agent Daniel Bolotnikoff told fcinternews.it during a visit to Milan.
"I assume the Nerazzurri could make a step forward once they have sold Eto'o."
However, that transfer is back in doubt after Inter set a Monday deadline for the final improved offer from the Russians.
"I learned with certainty that the Eto'o affair is at the moment frozen. If they don't close that deal, then it's very unlikely they'll talk to Forlan."

Republican Senators Flip-Flop On Leak Investigations
31 GOP Senators signed a letter calling for the White House to appoint an independent counsel on leaks. They didn't feel this way during the Valerie Plame affair, and in fact defended Karl Rove for his role in the episode.
Senator Lindsey Graham and 30 other Republican senators signed a letter today calling for the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate what they dubbed an "avalanche" of leaks from the White House.
But least five of the GOP Senators who signed the letter didn't always feel so strongly about getting a special prosecutor to investigate leaks, while strongly objecting to assuming leakers were guilty before an investigation was complete.
A review of past statements from the senators who signed the letter reveals several flip flops and inconsistent viewpoints.
In a 2003 interview with CNN, Senator Mitch McConnell said that a special prosecutor wasn't necessary in the Valerie Plame case because "you're most likely to get an unbiased investigation by career public integrity people than you are by some special counsel."
In another interview from that year, McConnell asserted that "the career professionals down at the Justice Department who are incorruptible and not subject to being manipulated by either side," should be in charge.
Senators Saxby Chambliss and John Cornyn — who also signed the letter — strongly resisted the notion of appointing a special prosecutor during the Plame affair, with Cornyn calling it a "lousy idea."
Over the past three weeks, that's exactly what the Obama administration has done in the two leak investigations, appointing two career federal prosecutors from the Department of Justice to oversee the investigations.
In the letter, the GOP senators also preemptively pointed the finger at Tom Donilon, President Obama's national security advisor, citing a New York Times book review that suggests he was a key source in the recent David Sanger book.
However, the letter's author, Lindsey Graham, strongly objected to the speculation that Karl Rove was behind the Plame leaks, telling CBS in 2005 that "there's no evidence that Karl Rove" leaked the CIA's operative name.
John McCain — another signatory to the letter who has led the charge on the Hill to pursue a leak investigation, calling for a non-binding resolution to appoint a special prosecutor — defended Rove as well, telling MSNBC at the time that "Karl Rove has stated that he did not do anything wrong…I take him at his word."
Democrats charge that the GOP senators have opened themselves to charges of hypocrisy in investigation that is increasingly taking on partisan tones: the letter today noted that both Joe Biden and Obama had previously called for a special counsel to investigate the Valerie Plame case, using the president and vice president's previous statements as examples to establish "precedent of asking for a neutral investigation."

In child care centers, staff are required to sanitize toys in order to help curb the spread of illness. Most centers must sanitize infant toys daily while toddler toys are cleaned weekly.

At home, you may not do this, but it's a good idea to help keep illnesses like a cold or thrush from coming back and to protect other children who may come to play.

There are commercial sanitizing mixes sold commercially, but an inexpensive way to clean toys is to soak them in a solution of bleach and water. Use 1 tablespoon of bleach for every gallon of water. Drain, rinse and allow toys to air dry overnight in the sink.

If you have just a few toys, you can also just boil them for a few minutes in a pot on the stove, just as if you were sanitizing bottles.

The dishwasher is another great place to clean toys. While most parents lower the water temperature on their hot water tank, as long as the temperature is above 120°F, it will safely clean toys and dishes. Just be sure to place plastic toys in the top rack.

Remember, too, to be careful with fabric toys (which bleach can ruin) or toys with electronics (such as noisemakers or lights). Fabric toys can be washed with simple soap and water and you can spray Lysol or another disenfectant on a cloth and wipe down toys with electronics.

Don't forget other places where your child places his mouth, either- such as crib rails and climbing toys or other large toys.

The safe harbor notice deadline for calendar year 401(k) plans is coming December 1. This notice requirement is one of the requirements for a plan to be a safe harbor, in addition to the fully vested contribution that gives 401(k) plans a free past in the ADP test (for deferrals), the ACP test (for matching), and Top Heavy test. The notice in a sense is a proactive solution since you have to give the notice before the plan year starts (and you won't be certain 100% that you failed until after the plan year ended), but most times, it is reactive because it is usually done in response to previous bad testing results.
I think one of the differences between a good third party administrator (TPA) and a bad TPA is how they handle safe harbor. Once again, a safe harbor option whether it's the 3% non-elective, 4% match, or the automatic deferrals QACA match, it's not for every plan. A plan that easily passes testing doesn't need it and some plans can't afford it. However, I have seen TPAs administer plans where the plan sponsor is already making a fully 100% vested contribution to plan participants that exceeds the contribution needed for safe harbor. For example, I just came across a plan where the TPA is telling the client that they will likely fail the Top Heavy tests even though they make a fully vested, 7.5% matching contribution. So even though they make a contribution that could have satisfied safe harbor, it doesn't, so the plan sponsor has to make another 3% contribution to non-key employees. So if a company is consistently making a fully vested contribution that exceeds safe harbor, there is no harm for making it a safe harbor, it can be a pro-active solution to make sure the demographics of the plan don't eventually one day cause the plan to fail one or more of the discrimination tests.
Plan design is like a game of chess, it is based on strategy and finding the right moves to achieve the maximum contributions and avoiding unnecessary harm like compliance testing issues. The good TPA is going to be pro-active and have a plan formula of contribution that will maximize contributions and avoid unnecessary contributions.

You can see the collar tips more clearly now. They are a great way to individualise an outfit, I got compliments on them all day.
While in Melbourne I picked up the blue faux fur tail at a designer warehouse sale, which again individualises my bag, making my look more my own. My jewellery is all by local Australian designers.

How much do you really need to turn on the light above your head? Enough to get physically punished for it? French designer Josselin Zaigouche's Switch Me! light switch makes turning on the light a painful chore by equipping a standard switch with a mouse trap-like device.
Designboom explains:
'Switch me!' makes you think twice about whether or not you should turn on the light. it is a metaphoric symbol that helps you feel the pain of the planet, making you reconsider how you can contribute to a greener environment.
So no, Zaigouche doesn't think that it's actually a good idea to outfit light switches with finger traps. But perhaps a switch or outlet that uses a less harsh method to discourage energy overuse—say, with an aesthetically pleasing energy monitor—could work just as well. A few of our favorites: Zerofootprint's smart TalkingPlug device, Conor Klein's outlet regulator, and Gilles Belley's glowing power strip. See? Saving the planet doesn't have to hurt.

Andre Dubus III has a gift for characterisation, for getting inside the heads of his downtrodden Americans, but it is not enough to save this unwieldy and uneven novel. Effectively, there are two novels battling it out within these 500-plus pages, one about the state of the American underclass, the other about the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and Dubus never reconciles these threads.
The action mostly takes place on a single night in and around a Florida strip club, the Puma Club for Men, in early September 2001. We get umpteen different points of view, some of them superfluous, but the main action concerns April, a stripper who has had to bring her three-year-old daughter, Franny, with her to work. Visiting the club are AJ, a drunken and down-on-his-luck misfit, and Bassam, a Saudi national who is clearly about to be one of the 9/11 terrorists. Bassam takes April into the VIP room for a private dance, while AJ is ejected by a bouncer for touching one of the other girls, only to return later with revenge on his mind. When Franny is found to be missing from the back room she was supposed to be asleep in, all hell breaks loose.
All of this is recounted in excruciatingly minute detail, as Dubus attempts to ratchet up the tension. But for all the build up, the plot is telegraphed well in advance and the resolution of Franny's disappearance is disappointingly anticlimactic. Then there is the problem of Bassam. When Dubus is inside April's or AJ's heads, he is fantastic at detailing their motivations and desires, their worries and fears.
The same cannot be said of Bassam. Dubus has clearly done his research, but he doesn't wear it lightly. All the Arabic phrases and prayer details in the world don't help get under Bassam's skin, and even after 500 pages in his company he seems like a stereotype, a caricature of the angry young Muslim fundamentalist. He has doubts about his cause and it's one of the reasons he's visiting a strip club (something based on apparent sightings of the real-life 9/11 terrorists), but he overcomes those doubts quickly, and the way in which Dubus delivers his narrative in a stilted English-Arabic hybrid only serves to further distance him from the reader.
There is ambition here but it remains unfulfilled, and the uneven levels of empathy Dubus creates in his characters, combined with slack plotting, fatally undermine his intentions.Reuse content
