Date of Stay: October, 2015
Beautifully maintained park in a beautiful setting. Paved roads, level, full hook up big rig friendly sites. Enough trees and grass to maintain the park like feel. I had one of the larger sites. Although, in general, the sites appeared closer together than most parks. Offsetting the sites at an angle from one another helped. Bathrooms and showers were spotless with plenty of hot water. A 15 mile paved walking trail lines the river behind the park. I had a back in spot with an awesome view. The only disappointment was the wifi which as absolutely glacial. Basic text web pages would barely load --- had to read a book instead.
Date of Stay: October, 2015
I returned to this park twice in September, my 5th and 6th visits here. Paved roads, ample sized level, gravel sites with reliable full hookups. Clean hot showers and reasonably fast wifi. I like having the river outside my backdoor, and, being able to walk into Orofino for dinner.
Date of Stay: September, 2015
This is a dumpy, worn at the heels, older park across the street from one of the most beautiful beaches on the west coast. Prices vary based on the view. I am surprised at the other reviewers with level sites. It took me an hour to level our rig (usually a 5 min. job). Walking thru the park, one could see that most campers had used up all their Lego style blocks and were still not leveled. This is the last park you want to pull into in the dark. The one shower is the park is woefully inadequate with barely enough for one person. Roads and pads were mixed crushed rock, dirt, and weeds. If you can get past the seedy dumpiness, the park has a certain old timey charm. Of course, the beach is absolutely stunning.
Date of Stay: September, 2015
I just don't get the average 8.7 rating. It's a average or better park, but nothing to get excited about. It's a well maintained, older park with asphalt roads and gravel sites. Our spot was dead level. Laurel shrubs planted as privacy hedges separate the sites. Although the sites are adequately sized and spaced, we thought it felt crowded. We stayed during a weekend. Although the place was loaded with dune buggies and quads, it was surprisingly quiet. The restroom and shower were spotless with plenty of hot water. Wifi was slow. Cell coverage (T-mobile) was non-existent. There are no real amenities. The galvanized pipes gave the drinking water a metallic taste. Our dogs did enjoy romping on the dunes immediately behind the park.
Date of Stay: September, 2015
Loved this park. Immaculate, new condition. Paved road and pads with little patches of grass and trees. Hookups and WiFi were excellent. Each site had clever picnic tables that converted into seating benches with back support. Pool, but no hot tub. There was a large open dog field for the pups and a very nice mobile home park to stroll through. Despite being on a state highway, road noise was negligible.
Date of Stay: September, 2015
I really like this park. A beautiful park like setting right on the Skagit River. Asphalt roads and asphalt level sites, 30 and 50 amp service, tons of water pressure, and clean bathrooms and showers. The bathrooms and showers are older but absolutely spotless. Most of the sites are pull thru. The few back in sites are my favorites since they back right up to the river. The only downsides here are a lack of privacy between sites, no sewer hookups, and no wifi. If it had sewer and wifi, I would give it a 10. (The park Ranger says the wifi is being installed). Howard Miller beats the two State parks in the area hands down.
Date of Stay: August, 2013
This is our second favorite park on the coast. We camped for three days in two different spaces. Both were paved and level. One had 50 amps and sewer, which we did not use. The other was 30 amp and water. No problems with water or power. Bathrooms were cleaned daily. Showers were clean and the water was hot. Great location --- walk to beach, or a 5 mile drive into Westport. Would have been perfect if half the parks campers didn't burn wet wood.... I would have rated it higher, but there are no amenities or Wi-Fi. Showers cost extra.
Date of Stay: May, 2013
This park is in a beautiful setting and I would really like to give it a good rating, but can't. I stayed here since I was fishing the local lakes and didn't want to waste 30 minutes driving back to Soap Lake were there is a real nice private campground. My site was a lot out of level. And, although the showers were clean, the water was cold. Thirty bucks a night for cold showers and no WiFi? No. Any of the private campgrounds in the area is a better bet (and I've stayed in them all).
Date of Stay: May, 2013
I've reviewed over a 100 parks. This park was very difficult to rate. The good: excellent location easy walking distance to downtown Winthrop. The park has new owners who did a complete make over. Everything is new: bathrooms, showers, laundry, utility hookups, etc. Except for a gravel access road, the entire park is grass and has a pleasant park like ambiance. The bad: not much is the way of amenities, no pool or hot tub. Tengo internet was dependable but very very slow. The absolute worst thing was the showers: $3 for 4-1/2 minutes. The owner flipped me $3 for a shower when I checked in. Unfortunately, I was in final rinse mode when the time ran out on my shower. It cost me $3 out of my pocket to restart the water (I added $3 to the cost reported in this review). If I want to take another shower in the morning, it will be another $3. Good grief. This is a very nice park that would normally rate an 8 or 9. The shower situation is just plain bad. If you are self contained and don't need showers, this is the park for you.
Date of Stay: May, 2013
This is a newer, small park in a semi industrial area easy walking distance from downtown. In fact, the area is better than most RV parks, and pleasantly quiet. Pads and interior roads are paved asphalt. I noticed that everybody in the park used more than one leveling block. The park looks flat but actually has a fair amount of slope. The guy across from us moved to a different spot since he was unable to level his 30 foot class C. We used two lego style blocks on our truck camper. The parks is big rig friendly. Hookups are solid and well located. Although we didn't care for the fresh water hookups. We found the knobs hard to turn, and too close to the pipe to get a grip. The pads are back to back, and "pull-thru" when the park is mostly empty. If the park is full, then your spot is a back in --- not a problem since the roads are wide and unobstructed. The bathrooms and showers were near new and very, very clean --- plenty of hot water. There is a laundry room and rec room that we didn't use. There are no fire pits, a plus for us. With more amenities (pool, hot tub, etc.), this park would be an easy 9 or 10.
Date of Stay: May, 2013
Campground is right on the river. Roads and pads are paved. Our rig leveled easy enough with 4 Lego style blocks. Park allows fires and our neighbors kindly shared some of their smoke with us. There is an excellent Nature Center located at the entrance. Walking down to it, we saw an amazing assortment of wildlife: a beaver, muskrat, raccoon, ducks, geese, and osprey. There is a paved bike path that parallels the river right into town. The showers work on push buttons rather than knobs. Since we camped on a cold wet day, we skipped the showers since we couldn't tell if the showers were hot or not. We would camp here again, and did.
Date of Stay: May, 2013
This is our second time here. Rated an 8 both times. Last time we had a 38 foot diesel pusher; this time we camped in a small truck camper. The park is right on the Spokane River directly across from Coeur d'Alene. They had comfortable chairs right on the beach for your use and enjoyment. There are no fire pits. I don't think they allow fires. It is an easy 2 mile walk to downtown if you don't mind crossing the Highway 95 bridge. The park's roads are mostly paved. The parking pads are gravel and near level. Each has a little grass and a picnic table. The hookups were reliable and well-situated. We used 4 Lego style leveling blocks to level our rig. The bathrooms and showers are individual units that are near new, and very clean, and in excellent condition --- one the the best bath and showers we have seen in a while. There is a new, fenced, gravel, dog area. WiFi was solid and surprisingly fast. Although the park was next to a highway, traffic noise was more of a rumble than a roar. We would camp here again, and have.
Date of Stay: September, 2012
Nice new park. Asphalt roads, level gravel sites with nice picnic tables. The bathrooms and showers were about the nicest I have ever seen and we were full-timers. Most sites line up right on the Clearwater river. The sound of the river all night was a plus. The sound of highway traffic across the river wasn't. Hookups were solid. Wi-Fi was good -- solid but slow which is typical of most RV parks. The park itself is a 10. Unfortunately, there are no amenities and the entrance to it is over rough railroad tracks and thru a seedy industrial area. Unless you are a steelhead fisherman, there isn't much to do in Orofino either.
Date of Stay: August, 2010
Hands down, this is the nicest park in the greater Seattle area. Interior roads and sites are paved. Not all the sites are level. It is immaculately maintained. Although the spaces are a little close, trees and shrubs are well located for privacy. Our 50 amp hookups worked flawlessly. There are no real amenities. Free Tengo Internet was limited to an hour a day unless you wanted to buy more time. There is a small fenced dog park on site.
Date of Stay: July, 2010
We have camped in every campground in the I-90 corridor from Easton to Ellensburg. This is our favorite. It has paved roads with level gravel sites surrounded by towering pines. It backs up to the Yakima River. Downtown is an easy stroll. 50 amp hookups were flawless. There are no amenities or Wi-Fi, but the bathrooms and showers were spotless. Traffic noise from the interstate is steady 24 hours a day. Also, their are one or two trains a day.

Admission to the
An AUDITION or PORTFOLIO REVIEW is required for admission to the Theatre Major in the School of Theatre and Dance.
The School of Theatre and Dance at JMU requires a gateway process for admission to the Theatre Major that reflects the applicant's interest and abilities. In addition to presenting material, each applicant interviews with the gateway committee.
Applicants most interested in performance present an audition, those directed toward design and theatre technology present a portfolio for review, and those interested in theatre studies (including theatre history, dramaturgy, theatre criticism, playwriting, directing, devising, and management) and theatre education (teacher licensure) present a portfolio of examples and records of their work. These four areas represent the different Concentrations within the Major. Each Concentration requires and recommends particular courses, and students within a Concentration receive priority placement in its range of courses, although any Theatre major is eligible to take any theatre course for which they have completed the prerequisite course(s). The gateway process for admission to majors occurs in the sophomore year but may be influenced by the quality of an applicant's audition/portfolio review/interview for admission.
While you do not need to have applied to the university prior to scheduling an appointment you MUST have applied to the university by the appropriate deadlines listed, AND before attending the audition.

Prospective Students may elect to audition for BOTH the Musical Theatre and Theatre majors. Students who wish to be considered for both majors must register for each separately.

You should submit your Slideroom application prior to coming to campus to audition. Detailed information for submitting the Slideroom application will be available on the audition registration website when you schedule your audition appointment.
Note that the gateway process (audition/ interview) is also used to determine offers of scholarships available to freshmen. We do not currently offer scholarships to transfer or continuing JMU students when admitted to the Theatre or Musical Theatre Majors. However, students admitted to the majors are able to apply for continuing student scholarships in the spring of each year.
VTA Audition Attendees: Although JMU faculty representatives will be in attendance and look forward to seeing your audition at the Virginia Theatre Association (VTA – www.vtasite.org) conference in October, 2016, an onsite audition/ interview is necessary for admission and scholarship consideration.
Please note: Admission to JMU itself involves online application directly to the undergraduate Office of Admissions. Although you may schedule your audition/portfolio review/interview before completing the application for academic admission to the University, you must complete the application for academic admission BEFORE your audition/portfolio review/interview.
JMU Application Deadlines are as follows:

The Babywit Story
Babywit was founded by a stay-at-home mom with a sense of humor who refused to resign herself to dressing her daughter in bland T-shirts covered in bears or other equally uninteresting creatures.
Babywit creates quirky, eclectic T-shirts that show the world your baby has serious style. We have the largest collection of comic infant and toddler T-shirts on the Internet. We were tired of seeing cute rainbows, hearts and bears on baby shirts. Especially bears. We hated bears. And so, in 2003, Rosalee launched babywit.com, a company that designs baby T-shirts with an adult sensibility.
Our T-shirts are made by American Apparel. They cost us twice as much, but they're made in a sweatshop-free environment and are of better quality than anything else we've tested.** (Plus, both the black infant bodysuits and raglan-sleeved toddler shirts are tragically hip.) We hand-press our T-shirts using retro iron-on transfers. (Those of us who lived through the 70's will remember the decal shops in the local shopping mall.)
Our hipster toddler clothes include a wide assortment of nontraditional designs that you will be hard pressed to find anywhere else. Portlandia even features Babywit's Sonic Youth and Billy Bragg shirts in their Squiggleman episode!
Be sure to check out the most comfortable baby outfit on the planet (and stylish too!) Wondersuits, designed by Rosalee Rester, makes the best new mom gifts. It is an all-in-one outfit with no snaps, no zippers, no velcro, no buttons, no elastic and no hassle.
All Tender Wondersuits branded clothing is manufactured locally in Portland, Oregon.
We recently added Gerber Onesies to our website in the newborn size because the word Onesies is the most often used search term but we are legally not allowed to use the word Onesies except in reference to Gerber Onesies as they hold the trademark for this term. Although they are manufactured overseas, the ones we carry are made from Organic Cotton We purchase these at full price and do not have any relationship or affiliation with Gerbers.
Baby Wit LLC is a small, Portland, Oregon-based woman owned company. We proudly pay our taxes, and despite the ill-advised humor, are generally nice people.

This is really a special place. It was built in the 1750s and is one of the oldest buildings in Granada. It underwent a 3-year restoration to bring it back to it's original splendor. The house has original floors, ceilings and doors dating back to it's construction along with all the modern amenities one would need.
Centrally located. Just one block off the main park. Casa Blanca is tucked in behind the town's main cathedral and on Granada's main pedestrian street and restaurant row, Calle Calzada. The house has the traditional colonial design with a central courtyard full of beautiful tropical plants and a deep and cool 40 ft long swimming pool. Once you step into the house, you're in your own little private paradise.
This was my second time staying at Casa Blanca. This time I brought 5 of my high school friends to introduce them to a country I love.(We have known each other for almost 60 years) The house was every bit as wonderful this time as last. What better way to wake up than with a swim in the pool, or to cool off after an afternoon of sight-seeing or just wandering around Granada?The staff is pleasant and helpful; the house has just the right mix of elegance and homey comfort; the location is perfect; Elizabeth, the contact person from GPS, the management company, was very helpful. There are enough nearby restaurants to try some place new every meal and not be disappointed. Casa Blanca is truly a treasure, a wonderful gateway to exploring a country that is just on the cusp of tourism.
I can't say this enough, the house is beautiful!! This house is very safe and secure. Casa Blanca is located on the main road of all the bars and restaurants. Hope to go back one day.
Wonderful home. Lots of amenities. Absolutely gorgeous. Management staff very attentive. Super people to deal with on all levels. Highly recommend this house for rent you won't be disappointed.
I had the pleasure of staying ar the casa blanca with my familly.... This property is even better in real life. The location is amazing....you can't be more in the centre of the action yet you can relax in a very private surrounding.... The house is BEAUTIFUL and huge! I highly recommend this location
We were a group of 10 :2 sisters with each a family of 4 (with young adults) and our parents .
The house was perfect. Each couple had their own room with private bath and the kids shared the family suite which was perfect. The house is big enough that we can either sit together or split up in the different salons so to have our private time if we wish to. I have to mention the beautiful wooden table in the dining space that can easily sit 12 people at a time and has the view of the pool, plants and flowers of the grounds . The pictures don't do the house justice. You have to see it to a appreciate it. Also Guadeloupe, makes sure that the house stays clean and tidy.
The house is greatly situated in the heart of Granada. A couple of steps from Parque Central and the Cathedrale and at the beginning of the pedestrian street « La calle La Calzada". The latter was great for our young adults that could go out and chill at the many small bars and terrasses near by.
We staid 4 days, and had time to do the many activities that are around (boat trip to the islas, apoyo lagoon, Masaya volcano, Masaya market , Los Pueblos Blancos, the Catarina mirador and just walking and appreciating the beauty of Granada). Activities that were suggested by Guillermo.
Coming back to the house and just lazing in the pool was an absolute must. This just added a bonus to our days. Not to mention that when you are in the pool you have a view of the dome of the Cathedrale. Breathless!!!
Do not hesited a moment renting this house and if you want some advice, rent it longer that we did. ;-)
This has to be one of the nicest homes in Granada. It is very large and extremely well designed. The renovation is given the house all of the necessary modern conveniences and the quality of the management and the housekeeping is superb. Guillermo is an extremely responsible owner who maintains excellent communication throughout the rental process. The attention to detail in the house indicates someone with a very fine architectural and design eye. The kitchen is stocked with all necessary silverware and cooking ware for a good size group. Having purified ice is of great convenience in the refrigerator. We did have an air conditioning unit go down on a Sunday and the after hours staff was able to bring in a repair technician within several hours to get the unit working again. It was an example of a well functioning management group. There is parking for one small car in the house garage but otherwise parking is a bit of a hassle in Granada. We elected to use supervised indoor parking near the house for our vehicles. You are right in the center of town and there are many eating and entertainment options available. The cost and quality of the accommodation compares very favorably to a hotel when you have a larger group. I cannot recommend the Casablanca enough to someone who is visiting Granada Nicaragua.

I think that the attachments for a message are important enough to leave in the top level, so let's revert this change.
(Or, well, let's revert part of this change. I'm happy to change the id from "appmenu_fileAttachmentMenu" to "appmenu_msgAttachmentMenu". ;)
(Reverting this also makes the two parts of the menu be the same length, which is kind of nice…)
r=me, and ui-r=me with that bit reverted.

Well, for a *message* ;) On the other hand i don't know who (except possibly keyboard only users) would access accachments from the menus, as there are way more natural access points. It's in no way primary.
> Reverting this also makes the two parts of the menu be the same length
The "parts" are still same length, see the attached screenshot. If this was part of the descision, please reconsider. Otherwise, reconsider anyway, as having it in different places creates a bit of inconsistency.
It's not exactly in different places, since we already hoist a variety of things to that left-hand menu. I would even venture to say that it'll be less surprising to users, since I'm asking us to not move the attachments out of the left-hand menu, but instead to leave them where they are. ;)
And the larger gap at the bottom in the screenshot you posted seems uglier to me than having the attachments menu where it used to be.
I understand your objection, and have thought about it, but I stand by my original request.

New campaign: Get PEP
'Get PEP' is a new nation-wide campaign, produced by the Australian Federation of AIDS Organisations (AFAO), that aims to increase gay men's knowledge and awareness of PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis).
PEP is a month-long course of HIV treatments that can prevent a person becoming infected with HIV after a recent exposure. The sooner someone starts PEP the better, but it needs to be within 72 hours of exposure.
PEP is different to PrEP. PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis) is taken after a possible exposure to HIV, whereas PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) is a drug taken daily over a sustained period to help prevent HIV infection before exposure.
PEP can be an effective HIV prevention tool after a high-risk event, such as condomless sex, sex where a condom breaks, and sharing injecting equipment.
It is available from the Emergency Department of most public hospitals, sexual health clinics and some other clinics and doctors that specialise in gay men's health and HIV. However, research shows that many men don't know that PEP is available.
'Get PEP' is based around the website www.getpep.info. It provides a range of information about PEP, including what it is and how it works, as well as tips for people accessing it and for when they're taking it.
Importantly, the website also provides the locations people can access PEP, including map search functionality, as well as PEP information lines for people to call for information and referrals.
AFAO President, Bridget Haire, points out why this campaign is needed.
'PEP is an effective HIV prevention method, and we need to make sure that those at risk of HIV can access it. Gay men in particular need to know about PEP - how it works, and where they can access it.
'It is vital that people are informed about all of the HIV prevention tools available to them, including PEP.'
The campaign will be promoted through a range of advertisements and materials such as posters and cards.
For more information, go to: www.getpep.info.

Protection of the personal assets of board members and c-suit corporate officers through indemnification and insurance is a challenge for financially troubled companies seeking to retain and hire the best people to help navigate the difficult business climate. SEC and FDIC regulators, among others, have made it clear that they will be increasing scrutiny of the top levels of corporate management and at the board level in order to determine whether boards and management conducted effective oversight of financially troubled companies. This increased focus on what went wrong at the board level has led to increased scrutiny by not only regulators but by private claimants – shareholders or creditors who will claim that board members failed to act appropriately and as a result harmed shareholders or the ability of creditors to be paid. Defaults and bankruptcies also increase the possibility of claims against the directors and officers of troubled or bankrupt companies. This increased risk has led to additional focus on strong indemnification protections and comprehensive insurance for directors and officers.
The most dangerous situation for public company directors, as far as their personal assets are concerned, is when the company files for bankruptcy. At that point, the corporate directors may no longer be able to look to the company to indemnify them against defense costs and damages for claims. Many corporate directors would be surprised to learn that the insurance purchased by the company to protect its directors and officers ("D&O policy") against claims by shareholders and others may not be available to pay defense costs and liability for covered claims for the individual directors and officers if the company has sought bankruptcy protection. Spending some time reviewing the policy terms and renegotiating certain provisions during the insurance renewal process can help minimize the possibility that directors and officers will be subject to expensive legal battles in bankruptcy over whether the proceeds of their D&O policy are available to pay claims and associated defense costs.
Although the hope is that corporations and their directors never have to deal with the challenges that arise at the intersection of the bankruptcy law and the coverage provided by D&O policies, prudent risk management suggests that a fundamental understanding of the interplay between typical D&O policy language and the bankruptcy law is essential to placing D&O policies that will provide for the most effective and efficient coverage of directors and officers in the event of a bankruptcy filing by the corporation. D&O policy forms and coverages vary widely and many of the policy terms are open to negotiation. This brief article provides a quick checklist of ten of the most important policy provisions that should be included in a D&O policy to protect directors and officers in the event of a bankruptcy filing. The underwriting and insurance renewal process provides the best opportunity for a company to put in place a D&O policy with a broad grant of coverage to protect the interests, and the personal assets, of corporate directors and officers.
1. Severability provisions related to both underwriting and exclusions: The D&O policy should include a full severability provision that specifies that the wrongdoing or the knowledge possessed by one insured cannot be imputed to another insured. If a suit is filed against a company by its shareholders or creditors alleging accounting fraud or other illegal activities, a D&O insurer is likely to claim that the policy should be rescinded because of misrepresentations or failure to disclose material facts on the policy application. A severability provision determines that innocent insureds will not lose coverage if the carrier successfully rescinds a policy. A full severability provision that applies to both the application process and to exclusions will protect the coverage for innocent or non-participating directors and officers. The severability provision should be drafted so that an insurer can only attempt to rescind coverage for an individual who has actual knowledge of material facts and the knowledge of one insured cannot be imputed to other insureds who do not possess such knowledge.
2. No application of retention: The definition of non-indemnified or non-indemnifiable loss covered under the D&O policy should include loss for which the company's insolvency prevents it from indemnifying an officer or a director. Often, D&O policies require the payment of a self-insured retention – an amount that could range from $1 million to upwards of $25 million – before the policy begins to provide actual coverage for defense costs. Because the company in bankruptcy cannot indemnify the directors for these self-insured costs, the definition of loss that is paid directly by the insurer without the policyholder paying a retention – the non-indemnified or non- indemnifiable loss – should be drafted broadly enough to include loss that cannot be paid because of the corporation's bankruptcy. With such a broad provision in place, the directors and officers will not have to pay out of pocket for covered defense costs if the corporation has sought bankruptcy protection because the D&O policy will be obligated to pay immediately.
3. Insured v. Insured Exclusion: The Insured v. Insured Exclusion in the D&O policy should provide a "carve-out" for the claims of bankruptcy trustees or creditor's committees. The most likely claims against directors of a company in bankruptcy are claims by the bankruptcy trustee or a creditors committee for breach of fiduciary duty by the directors or the officers that led to the company's financial difficulties. Insurers have attempted to defeat coverage for these claims by relying on the Insured v. Insured Exclusions in the typical D&O policy – these exclusions were designed to bar coverage for collusive suits – by claiming that the bankruptcy trustee or creditors committee stands in the shoes of the company and as a result the claims are not covered. As a general matter, courts have sided with policyholders on these claims and insurers have been unsuccessful in their efforts to obviate coverage for these claims. A carve-out in the exclusions will confirm the view that coverage for claims by bankruptcy trustees or creditor's committees are not excluded under the policy.
4. Order of Payments Provision: The D&O policy should include a provision stating that if there is a single limit of liability and claims are brought that trigger coverage provided to both the corporate entity and to its directors and officers, payments to or on behalf of directors and individuals are given priority over payments to or on behalf of the company. If a D&O policy includes both coverage for individual directors and officers and entity coverage for the corporation, these two coverages can conflict once the corporation files for bankruptcy protection. A bankruptcy trustee or creditor will argue that if the D&O policy provides entity coverage in addition to coverage for the individual directors and officers, the policy and its proceeds should be considered an asset of the bankruptcy estate and as a result the policy proceeds cannot be used to pay costs of directors and officers. Although the D&O policy is generally considered to be an asset of the estate of the bankrupt company, the case law is mixed as to whether the policy proceeds are also an asset of the estate. An order of payments provision that specifies that the directors and officers have first claim to the policy proceeds provides a basis for the bankruptcy court to allow the directors and officers access to the proceeds of the policy to pay for defense expenses and potential liabilities.
5. Allocation of Limits Provision: A D&O policy that has coverage for both individual directors and officers and corporate entity coverage should include a provision that allocates the applicable policy limits between the corporation and the directors and officers. Many of the same concerns outlined in the description of order of payments provision, above, apply here as well. If there are specific policy provisions that distinguish between the limits available to pay claims against the directors and officers and the associated defense costs and the limits available to pay claims against the corporation and the associated defense costs, the coverage conflict is avoided completely.
6. Payment of Limits by Insurer or Policyholder Sufficient: An excess D&O insurance policy should have a provision that specifically states that payment of the underlying policy limits, by either the insurer or the policyholder, or a combination of both, is sufficient to exhaust the underlying coverage properly and trigger the excess coverage; once the underlying limits have been exhausted, the excess D&O insurance policy should then be obligated to pay defense and indemnity costs. Recent case law has held that in certain very specific situations, based on the specific language in particular primary and excess D&O policies, an excess D&O insurer is not obligated to pay covered claims or defense costs unless the underlying D&O insurer itself has fully paid the limits of its policy. If the D&O policy does not contain flexible exhaustion language that reduces restrictions on payments of loss, there is a possibility that the insurer will argue that the excess D&O policy's payment obligations will never be triggered if the underlying D&O policy settles with the policyholder for less than full policy limits.
7. Excess Follow Form Provisions: All D&O excess coverage should include clear follow form provisions that state precisely the policies that govern the application of D&O coverage in the portfolio. A policyholder purchases follow form excess D&O insurance in order to obtain seamless coverage for the same set of potential losses. If the excess insurance policy does not clearly provide that the excess coverage provides the same coverage as the underlying policies, the directors and officers of a bankrupt company may find themselves in a situation in which they must pursue costly coverage litigation, at their own expense, in order to obtain access to the coverage provided in a tower of D&O policies.
8. Insolvency Provision: The D&O policy should include a provision that states that the bankruptcy or the insolvency of the Company or the Insured shall not relieve the insurer of any of its obligations under this policy. An insolvency provision makes clear that insurance companies should not receive a windfall and be relieved of any of their coverage obligations simply because their policyholder files for bankruptcy protection. This provision insures that the bankruptcy of the policyholder will not affect the payment of policy proceeds.
9. Advancement of Defense Costs Provision: The D&O policy should have a provision that states that the insurer will pay covered Defense Costs on an as-incurred basis. If the D&O policy does not specify that an insurer must pay defense costs as they are incurred, then the directors and officers of a company in bankruptcy may find themselves in a situation where they are obligated to pay millions of dollars of defense costs out of their own pockets until a claim is finally resolved and the insurer is obligated to pay the covered defense costs and the damages. A typical D&O policy that has an advancement of defense costs provision will also provide that if it is finally determined that any defense costs paid by the Insurer are not covered under this Policy, the Insureds agree to repay those non-covered Defense Costs to the Insurer.
10. Non-Rescindable Side A/Difference-in-Conditions/Independent Director Liability Coverage: To place coverage that provides the greatest likelihood of providing protection to independent directors when the corporation on whose board the director sits files for bankruptcy protection, the corporation should purchase some combination of non-rescindable side A coverage, difference in conditions drop down coverage and/or independent director liability coverage. The case law addressing the application of different D&O policy provisions in the bankruptcy context continues to evolve and there is no certainty as to the ultimate interpretation of certain policy language in the event of a coverage dispute. The provisions described above provide protection and support for directors and officers in their effort to obtain coverage under their D&O policy once their corporation has filed for bankruptcy protection. The purchase of some amount of separate coverage for independent directors is the safest, if not the most cost effective, protection for independent directors to address the potential exhaustion of the policy proceeds from multiple simultaneous claims and to put in place insurance designed to ensure that some fund of money will be available to pay for the cost of defense and resolving claims, even if the corporate entity is bankrupt This separate coverage might take any one of a number of forms, including a socalled Side A/DIC policy or even an individual director liability (IDL) policy. Because these policies are designed to protect only the individual outside directors, the policies' proceeds are unlikely to be held part of a debtor company's estate and, therefore, are not likely to be considered to be subject to the stay in bankruptcy. Excess Side A policies providing so-called "drop down" protection in the event the standard D & O policy is subject to the bankruptcy stay may be the most cost effective protection for outside directors.
The D&O placement process and litigation landscape has become more complex as claims against directors and officers have become more commonplace. Individuals who are asked to serve as directors are insisting on increased protections provided by the D&O policies. This top ten checklist will assist prudent risk managers in constructing a D&O insurance program that provides the best available insurance protection for directors and officers in the event of a corporate bankruptcy filing.

Higher age cap sought for taxpayer's dependents
- Written by Jester P. Manalastas
- Published in Nation
- Read: 274
IN light of the K to 12 curriculum a member of the House of Representatives said that dependents of a taxpayer should be aged 23 and below.
Paranaque Rep. Eric Olivarez said there is a need to adjust the age of dependents because primary education in the country has been lengthened with two more years added.
At present the age bracket of household members considered as dependents of a taxpayer is 21 and below.
Olivarez said a student affected by the K to 12 Law is now expected to complete his or her education at age 23 on the average, instead of 21.
Consequently the income earners in the family would have to sustain the education of their children or immediate relatives, like a brother or a sister, a little longer, or two years longer than before according to Olivarez.
"Because of this, it is only proper to amend the sections of the National Internal Revenue Code (NIRC) which provide for the age limitation of household members who may qualify as dependents for purposes of availing of tax exemptions, if only to avoid defeating the purpose and wisdom of the above-cited specific provision of the NIRC," Olivarez said.
The lawmaker said the NIRC provides certain tax exemptions to income-earning individuals to avoid unreasonably burdening a person who has to provide for a number of household members who are unable to support themselves because they are still studying and therefore unable to work and support herself and/ or the person being supported by the income earner is physically or mentally handicapped from providing for himself.
Olivarez proposed amendments to Section 35 items (A) and (B) of the NIRC, as amended by Republic Act 9504 titled Allowance of Personal Exemption for Individual Taxpayer.
The proposed amendments provides fo a basic personal exemption amounting to P50,000 for each individual taxpayer.
Moreover, there shall be allowed an additional exemption of P25,000 for each dependent not exceeding four. The additional exemption for dependent shall be claimed by only one of the spouses in the case of married individuals.
In the case of legally separated spouses, only the spouse who has custody of the child or children may claim additional exemptions. The total amount of additional exemptions that may be claimed by both shall not exceed the maximum additional exemptions herein allowed.
For additional exemption, a married individual or head of the family shall be allowed an additional exemption of P5,000 for each dependent. The total number of dependents for which additional exemptions may be claimed shall not exceed four dependents.
If the taxpayer marries or should have additional dependents, the taxpayer may claim the corresponding additional exemption, as the case may be, in full for such year.
If the spouse or any of the dependents dies or if any of such dependents marries, becomes 23 years old or becomes gainfully employed during the taxable year, the taxpayer may still claim the same exemptions as if the spouse or any of the dependents died, or as if such dependents married, became 23 years old or became gainfully employed at the close of such year.

ok guys I know it's a stupid question but I couldn't figure it out…so I'm using jit.str.regexp to analyze a list and find matches with a word I choose. I need to output the number of matches (I can see how many matches, but I need the number to be outputed in a number box or something like that so I can route numbers…)
I hope it's clear enough
Thanks for your help

It seems that Ma'a Nonu's long search for a rugby club next season is over, with reports in New Zealand saying he has joined the Blues.
It seems that All Blacks centre Ma'a Nonu's long search for a rugby home next year is over, with reports in New Zealand saying he's joined the Blues.
Radio LiveSport revealed that the 31-year-old has snubbed a big money offter from Clermont and will join Sir John Kirwan's outfit ahead of 2014.
Furthermore, All Blacks coach Steve Hansen was quoted as saying that he was relieved that the experienced twelve won't be heading overseas.
"It might be a weight off his shoulders," Hansen said when fielding questions on the centre.
"I just think it's great that he's here, it makes him available for us. He's playing very, very well at the moment.
"He's in a very good head space and physically, he's in good shape."

In the meantime, The Huffington Post is running 5 excerpts.
#1 - Leslie Van Houten: A Friendship, Part 1 of 5
"The Manson Family" were the hippies all our parents were scared we'd turn into if we didn't stop taking drugs. The "slippies", as Manson later called his followers, the insane ones who didn't understand the humor in Yippie Abbie Hoffman's fiery speeches on his college lecture tours when he told the stoned, revolutionary-for-the-hell-of-it students to "kill their parents". Yes, Charlie's posse were the real anarchists who went beyond the radical SDS group's call to "Bring the War Home". Beyond blowing up their parents' townhouses, draft boards, even the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. Sure, my friends went to riots every weekend in different cities in the '60s to get laid or get high, just like kids went to "raves" decades later. But, God, this was a cultural war, not a real one and the survivors of this time now realize we were in a "play" revolution, no matter what we spouted. But the Manson Family! Yikes! Here was the real thing -- "punk" a decade too early. Dare I say it? Yes, the filthiest people alive.

My daughter and I attended the Nationwide Rally for Religious Freedom held at the Federal Plaza (50 W. Adams St.) here in Chicago today. The weather did not deter the 2500 people who showed up nor did the refusal of the Federal Building to turn on the power so the sound system could be turned on! Eventually the Post Office turned the power on so a real system could be implemented instead of a very weak bullhorn. It's all about the power, isn't it?
Speakers included Congressman Dan Lipinski, Congressman Joe Walsh, Relavant Radio's Sheila Liaugminas and Fr. Richard T. Simon. Also present were a Dr. Caruso who is Jewish, two Anglican clergy and a Lutheran minister. One of the Anglican clergy proclaimed, "It must be a real crisis to bring out the Anglicans!" The crowd roared!
There were many other speakers and of course, Eric Scheidler of Stand Up For Religious Freedom.
One of the things that was emphasized by many of the speakers, but in particular, Congressman Joe Walsh, was "Are you willing to go to jail for what you believe in?"
The answer was a resounding, "YES!"
My daughter and I were so moved by the people at that rally and the speakers who spoke so eloquently about religious freedom. It was an experience neither of us will ever forget.

We will extend our successful forward genetic analysis of susceptibility to mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) nfection, and institute a new screen for cell-autonomous resistance to Rift Valley Fever Virus (RVFV). These studies will build upon technological advances that permit us to find mutations faster than ever before, using massively parallel sequencing, both by itself and in combination with inducible pluripotent stem cell (IPS) technology in screens for cell-autonomous resistance to RVFV in mouse embryonic fibroblasts;MEFs. We have found that it is possible to screen mutagenized MEFs from reprogrammable C57BL/6J mice for resistance to RVFV ex vivo, to identify resistant clones, to use these clones to regenerate live mice, and at the same time, detect most of the mutations in these cells by sequencing genomic DNA and/or whole exomes. We have determined, based on in silico simulations, that compound heterozygous null alleles at almost all loci will result from mutagenesis on the scale we contemplate. As such, we hope to enrich our understanding of what it takes to combat a model herpesvirus infection with strong relevance to a human disease (HCMV infection), and also, to determine the critical host proteins necessary for a Category A pathogen (RVFV) to proliferate in mammalian cells. This work, pursued in depth, will inform us of molecular targets for the treatment of bunyavirus infections in general. In a third, circumscribed specific aim, we will analyze a new mutation, identified in screening, that abolishes the responses of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDCs) to nucleic acids. This mutation, called feeble, affects a channel protein that acts in conjunction with the adaptor protein 3 (APS) complex to condition endosomes in PDCs (but not other cells), making them competent to signal via TLRs. Based on our studies to date, we infer the existence of an ARF1->AP3^Slc45a->TLR7/9 pathway essential for the support of type I interferon gene induction in PDCs. The further elucidation of this pathway will deepen understanding of PDC function, and the role of PDC- derived interferon both in infection and in pathological settings such as systemic lupus erythematosus.
Project 1 will contribute to human health by finding key genes required for combating a model herpesvirus infection (mouse cytomegalovirus, similar to human cytomegalovirus, a major pathogen). It will also contribute by finding genes needed by Rift Valley Fever Virus (RVFV) to complete its life cycle in the mammalian host. Human cytomegalovirus is a major cause of blindness, neurological disease, and birth defects in humans, while RVFV is a major economic problem in Africa with some crossover of disease into human populations.
