School districts and municipalities often accept form agreements provided by their design professional or consultants, or use a standardized set of construction contract documents (such as the American Institute of Architects (AIA) documents) for their public construction projects.
It is important to remember that these forms were created with the design and construction professional in mind, so they always deserve careful review by your attorney (if they are knowledgeable in construction law.) The contracts typically require some modifications to protect the interests of the school or municipality which is the project owner. The most common oversights we find in these agreements are the following:
Time Limitations on Claims
Most states have established statutes of limitations on claims. Pennsylvania statutory law and case law on these time limits statutes, recognizes a legal doctrine known as nullum tempus occurrit regi ("no time runs against the king"), providing that public entities, such as school districts, are not subject to statutes of limitation.
However, standardized construction-related agreements generally include provisions that establish time limits for initiation of claims by the parties. That works against a public entity because the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania has held that contractual time limits result in the waiver of the nullem tempus doctrine. Consequently, a public entity's failure to modify these claim limitation provisions can result in defeating a claim for defects in design or construction which are not immediately identifiable.
Dispute Resolution: Is Arbitration Always Wrong?
Standardized construction agreements typically provide for submission of disputes to binding arbitration with the American Arbitration Association. It is common for a school district or municipal solicitor to delete such provisions, resulting in all disputes requiring litigation in courts.
However, construction disputes come in broad variety. A claim that involves complex engineering issues or the concurrent interpretation of project drawings and related technical specifications may be more suitable for adjudication by a construction industry professional in arbitration rather than by a jury whose members have no construction knowledge or experience. Dispute resolution provisions should be reviewed with consideration of nature and the array of claims that may arise.
Ambiguous Terms: What is Reasonable?
Parties sometimes resort to imprecise terms to describe obligations when drafting contract terms,. The parties may express mutual understanding of the intended parameters of terms such as "reasonable," "usual" or "customary" in the context of amicable negotiations at the onset of the project, but once problems arise during construction, parties invariably have different opinions of what these indefinite terms require. Contractual obligations should be as clearly stated and defined as is possible to minimize disputes and to avoid litigation.

Compared to the rest of the Tucson Metropolitan Area market, the Grant-Glenn submarket has more expensive rates, and you'll need to pay a premium to be in this hot region.
In the last 90 days, 3 listings have been posted online, which means spaces most likley are leasing quickly. You'll want to be prepared to tour spaces as quick as possible. About 33% of the office spaces in the Grant-Glenn are subleases, so you might be able to sign a shorter term by taking over a previous lease. There aren't many listings below 2,000 square feet on the market, so finding a space for a small business might be tough.
Even though the median size is 2,750 sqft, there are still 0 new listings below 2,000 sqft.
Not much of the real estate is used for commercial space, so it might be hard to find office space. Information is the dominant industry in this area. Commute by bike is the most popular way to get to work amongst Grant-Glenn residents. Commuting between 30 and 45 minutes a day is the norm for those who opt to reside in this part of town.
Trends and status of the commercial real estate market in Grant-Glenn.

The great thing about a new year is that it gives you the opportunity to re-evaluate and set goals for the year ahead. Now we hear you when you say that most of your resolutions are broken within the first couple of weeks. Don't worry everyone is the same.
But I am willing to bet that getting fit and doing something a little out of your comfort zone is on your list somewhere. We have good news for you, achieving this goal is actually a lot easier than you think. So pop this goal to the top of your list and get out there and get active in 2014.
And if you need a little bit of extra motivation then why not round up a group of mates and enter one of these quirky events. You don't need to be super fit although a little bit of pre-event training won't go astray. You will also tick that 'do something different' box while you're at it. Once you do your first event there'll be no turning back, we bet you'll be totally addicted.

Show Review - 1345by memchip
It's not clear what area of Utah the caller was visiting when the incident occurred but Dugway Proving Ground is within 100 mi of Salt Lake city. Testing of an electromagnetic pulse generating device would cause the described problem if it they were within proximity. If the white knight was a researcher involved with the test he would know their car was disabled and why. The caller didn't go into detail about the type of clothing the white knight wore- could it have been a lab coat?

Cool Newell
After last week's British Press Awards, we already have an early contender for next year's Reporter of the Year in the ice-cool Claire Newell of The Sunday Times, who went undercover for the lobbying exposé shown on last week's Dispatches.
Newell, some may remember, was arrested – though not charged – by police in 2004 after The Sunday Times landed a series of scoops based on leaked government documents. Newell, then 23, had worked as a temp in various government departments including the Cabinet Office. She had done a brief summer stint at the ST before returning to temping in Whitehall. Now she is back at the paper and proving her undoubted journalistic talents. But she's still comfortable in the corridors of power, just ask Stephen Byers and Geoff Hoon.
Asian exports
The demise of BBC Asian Network, comes just as America is embracing the Desi music scene spawned in Britain and spearheaded by Billboard No 1 artist Jay Sean, from London. That's a great opportunity for British commercial outfits such as Buzz Asia radio, Brit-Asia TV and Brit-Asian magazine (featured in Jay Sean's latest video). Best placed of all is Brit entrepreneur Anjula Acharia-Bath who has turned her multi-platform Desi Hits brand into a New York-London-Mumbai operation and is backed by megarich Jimmy Iovine, founder of Interscope records.
Not bad, punk
The Scottish-born CBS chat-how host and reformed alcoholic Craig Ferguson is modestly playing down speculation that he is the natural eventual successor to the same network's great David Letterman.
In the meantime, Ferguson, who once played in a Glasgow punk band with Peter "Malcolm Tucker" Capaldi, must content himself with a role in the Dreamworks 3-D animation movie How to Train Your Dragon. Ferguson provides the voice for a character named Gobber the Belch.

Mine got hacked this week for (I think) the first time also.
I didn't have a very secure email password, but something tells me the
hackers are skilled enough that they can probably break most passwords

My mail server has so few clients, it surprised me anybody would bother.

deindividuation (losing one's sense of
> Zimbardo claimed that aggressive behaviour was
the result normal constraints on behaviour being
weakened due to people losing their sense of
individuality in a situation (i.e. becoming
deindividuated). People who are deindividuated show
reduced private self-awareness. That is that they
are not evaluating their own behaviour in a privately
reflective way. This makes them more likely to break
the normal cognitive restraints that are placed on
aggressive behaviour.
> Factors which increase the likelihood of aggressive
behaviour through deindividuation include anonymity,
altered states of consciousness and diffusion of
> Anonymity (achieved through wearing a
mask/uniform or removal of name/identification)
leads to a sense of reduced individuality. This in turn
can lead to aggressive behaviour as the person is
detached from the normal inhibitions that they have
on their aggressive behaviour, e.g. a solider fighting
in a war would perform acts of aggression in this
situation that they would not normally perform when
dressed as a civilian. They may see that they are less
likely to be caught and held responsible for
aggressive behaviour when deindividuated through
anonymity, or they may simply feel `less like
themselves' and so more able to commit these
aggressive acts.
> Altered states of consciousness (achieved
through alcohol, drugs or sensory overload) leads to
deindividuation and can lead to aggression as the
person's normal sense of responsibility is weakened
by the experience. For example, a peaceful person
who takes drugs may show aggression due to a
reduction in their inhibitions and a disengagement of
their normal cognitive evaluation of a situation, as
they feel removed from their sense of individuality
through the drug taking.

being part of a crowd or group) is a deindividuating

Here's a taster:
In a sense
they are less likely to be blamed for their aggressive
behaviour as they are deindividuated and the so the
responsibility is spread collectively across many

excused by the fact that they are not acting alone.

Four new movies come out this Friday and next Wednesday, including the latest film in the Twilight Saga. Theaters will be packed with obsessed fans of the series so be sure to either go early or simply not go on opening day, which would be highly recommended. Overall, the four new films are a mixed bag. The only one rated poorly is the new comedy Grown-ups. Judging from the horrendous reviews, you may want to skip that one altogether.

New London - The city attorney has advised the City Council that a proposed ordinance requiring the police department to maintain a four-dog K-9 unit violates the city's charter.
Attorney Jeffrey T. Londregan said in a memo sent to the council on Thursday that the proposed ordinance, which the council is set to discuss Monday, would be in "direct violation" of Sections 40 and 37 of the City Charter.
But City Council President Michael Passero, who also is an attorney, strongly disagreed with Londregan's interpretation of the charter, saying the "proposed ordinance falls squarely within the legislative authority of Council as demonstrated in Sections 21 and 43."
"The community is outraged he (the mayor) is unilaterally dismantling the program,'' he said. "So that's when the councils steps in as a representative of the citizens and tells the mayor, there will (be) a K-9 unit."
Londregan wrote that the proposed ordinance is an attempt to dictate how the police department operates and what assets it must maintain.
Under the charter, the mayor, who is the chief executive of the city, controls the police department. The council cannot "dictate, or attempt to dictate," the way the mayor manages the city and its staff, Londregan wrote.
The council has proposed an ordinance mandating a minimum of four K-9 units in the police department, each comprising a dog and its handler. The cost of maintaining the units would be included in the department's annual budget.
"As the proposed K-9 Patrol Division ordinance is an attempt to give an order to the Police Department to maintain certain services and patrols divisions, it is in direct conflict with the provisions of the City Charter,'' Londregan wrote.
But Passero said he is confident the council's proposal is permitted under the charter.
"We organize departments. We could reorganize any department. That's our legislative prerogative,'' he said.
In an email response to Londregan's memo, Passero wrote that he anticipated Londregan's opinion and drafted the ordinance so as to not interfere in the "administration" of the police department.
"The ordinance does not dictate how the Chief/Mayor manage or direct the K-9 unit,'' he wrote. " The legislation only requires that the police department include a K-9 unit within certain minimum parameters. This is a policy issue that rests within the legislative power vested with the Council. The Mayor, in turn, will be obligated to exercise his executive authority to carry out the mandate."
The council's Public Safety Committee will meet at 6 p.m. Monday, followed by the City Council at 7 p.m.
In June, Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio eliminated two K-9 positions in the department. Buck, a German shepherd, was retired for medical reasons and Bessie, a bloodhound, was scheduled to be donated to another department, leaving one police dog in the department, as required by the police union contract. Officer Todd Lynch, the police union president, is the only officer paired with a K-9. His dog is Jasper, a German shepherd.
Finizio has said he does not support an urban police department using dogs that bite and intimidate.
"I fully support a K-9 program that employs the use of detection and tracking dogs, such as our bloodhound Bessie," Finizio said. "I reiterate that as a matter of policy, I do not support the use of biting/patrol dogs in city law enforcement."
After an outcry from some members of the department and the public, Finizio reinstated Bessie.
Last month, the council passed a non-binding resolution supporting a K-9 unit in the police department with at least four dogs. It then proposed the ordinance, which in effect would require the department to have a K-9 unit with at least four dogs.

Safety LastDirector: Fred Newmeyer, Sam Taylor
Cast: Fred Newmeyer, Sam Taylor, Harold Lloyd, Mildred Davis
After Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, the silent film era's "third genius" was Harold Lloyd, who stars in this Horatio Alger-style story of an average country boy trying to make good in the big city. The Boy (Lloyd) leaves his sweetheart, The Girl (Mildred Davis, later the real-life Mrs. Lloyd) in Great Bend while he pursues his fortune in a teeming metropolis. The Boy lands a job as a clerk at a fabric counter of DeVore's, a huge department store, but he lies in his letters home to his beloved, pretending to be the store's manager and spending his earnings on lavish gifts. The Boy's roommate, The Pal (Bill Strother) makes money as a "human fly," performing attention-getting stunts. Promised $1,000 by DeVore's real manager if he can devise a publicity gimmick, The Boy convinces his friend to climb the 12-story establishment and split the winnings with him. On the day of the event, however, The Pal is busy dodging The Law (Noah Young), forcing The Boy to make the arduous climb solo. Dodging a variety of obstacles, The Boy climbs higher and higher, eventually dangling from the store's clock tower, in the film's most memorable image.

I first saw this film on TCM, then I saw it referenced in the movie Hugo. Harold Lloyd's glasses character is funny and lovable. It is a very funny film, and it embodies the silent film comedy era perfectly. If you are a fan of Buster Ketene and/or Charlie Chaplin, then you with love this film. Harold Lloyd is one of the greats right along with them.
I give safety last 3 1/2 stars----If your reading this than you've never seen the film and/or are wondering if the criterion transfer is any good---- I'm no ocd cinefile but I have not run into a criterion in the last several years that was edgy and this ones no exception. If your looking for funny gags and that sort of atmosphere I would get Modern Times with Charlie chaplain if you don't already have it.------If your rounding out your collection safety last has some things that were never done by anyone else and the film is quite enjoyable. Interestingly I REALLY liked the included short----"Take a chance"----It it quite hilarious and there is another included short that is funny but not as good as "Take a chance".-----Anyway to sum things up----A worthwhile purchase. If you want to have a strong bare bones collection of silent movies you have to have Either "Safety Last " or "The Freshman" by Harold Lloyd --------"The General" by Buster Keaton------And Either "Modern Times"---"City Lights" or Goldrush By Charlie Chaplin---So have fun adding to your collection.

Nathaniel Hawthorne by John L. Idol
Book DescriptionFrom the self-withdrawn Fanshawe through the posthumously issued Dr Grimshaw's Secret, this compilation of reviews and notices traces Nathaniel Hawthorne's rise from obscurity to world renown as a writer placed in the ranks of Carlyle, Dickens and Shakespeare. Reviews by Henry Fothergill Chorley, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Edgar Allan Poe, Herman Melville, Margaret Fuller, Elizabeth Palmer Peabody, Edwin Whipple, Henry James, Edith Simcox, William Dean Howells and many others respond to Hawthorne's tales, romances, notebooks, and fragmentary works in efforts to capture and define the nature of Hawthorne's mind and the quality of his art. The introduction explores the thematic concerns taken up by reviewers, focusing on the elements of Hawthorne's life and art of most interest to his contemporary readers. Several retrospective reviews, one appearing as early as the 1840s, provide thoughtful estimates of Hawthorne's achievement.

Leeds' tech history
Leeds has a proud history of technological innovation, with several major firsts coming from the area.
French inventor Louis Le Prince, the first person to record moving pictures on film, was based in Leeds during his time in the UK. The suburb of Roundhay was the location of the oldest surviving film footage in existence - 'Roundhay Garden Scene' was recorded in 1888. Le Prince was years ahead of more prominent inventors such as Edison, who later attempted to claim he was first. Tragically, Le Prince mysteriously disappeared while travelling to demonstrate his work.
Slightly more recently computer scientist Sandy Douglas, the first person to create a graphical computer game, installed a Pegasus vacuum tube computer for Leeds University in 1957, placing the imposing machine in a disused chapel. While at Leeds he became interested in computing for business use, and also successfully helped build an early computerised student registration system.
Leeds is also home to some notable companies. Rockstar Leeds is a subsidiary of the multinational giant Rockstar Games, creators of the Grand Theft Auto series. Rockstar Leeds - formerly Mobius Entertainment - made the popular portable editions of the series, Grand Theft Auto Stories. Publisher/developer Activision, of Call of Duty fame, also has its Blast Furnace studio in the heart of the city, where they make titles for tablets and smartphones, including Call of Duty Strike Team.
Comparing mobile broadband in Leeds
All four networks are reported to have excellent coverage throughout Leeds. The central parts of the city are blanketed with signal, and this also extends outside the centre to areas such as Holbeck, Beeston, Harehills and Crossgates.
As ever though there's no guarantee of performance when it comes to mobile broadband. As well as signal dead-spots - which can occur even in well covered areas - the bigger issue in cities is usually one of capacity, with the network overloaded by traffic during busy periods.
If you're in the process of comparing mobile broadband it's worth double checking the coverage in areas you'll be using the service. Ask friends for their experiences, or simply use your mobile phone to check signal strength. You can find out more by reading our guide to mobile coverage.
Central Leeds enjoys good access to ultrafast 4G mobile broadband networks, though outside of the city it will, for now, revert to 3G in many cases.
Comparing home broadband in Leeds
Good news - Leeds is well catered for when it comes to broadband. Leeds and the surrounding exchanges - Chapeltown, Harehills, Hunslet, Headingley and Armley - are all fibre optic enabled for BT network fibre up to 76Mb.
The area also has access to Virgin Media fibre broadband for even faster speeds, now up to a blazing 300Mb.
This all gives Leeds residents access to a wide choice of services, from slow but cheap ADSL to superfast fibre optic broadband, with no shortage of options for broadband and TV bundles too.
Coverage can vary from home to home, though, so to find out what's available at your location use the postcode check on our comparison tables and this will display only those providers available at your premises.

The elevator doors open and 14-year-old Mitchie Brusco, skateboard in hand, steps onto the platform. "You been waiting long?" an X Games security guard jokingly asks the kid, who is headed to the top of the MegaRamp for the 80th or so time Thursday afternoon. Brusco smiles. In some ways, he's been waiting his whole life for this ride.
Brusco was 3½ when he first stepped onto a skateboard. He was with his mom at a neighborhood Target store and a plastic Tasmanian Devil skateboard caught his eye. "He had to have it," says mom, Jen Brusco. "It was September in Kirkland, Wash., which is the rainy season, so every day he was on the carpet in front of the TV on that skateboard, doing what I now know were ollies and 360s." When she took him to a mellow skatepark near their home, the local kids took one look at his board -- and his talent -- and told mom Mitchie needed something a bit more legit. "So we took him to this local skate shop called Trickwood and got him a new board," she says.
During the visit, Brusco spotted a two-foot mini-ramp in the back of the shop and asked its owners if he could skate it. They reluctantly agreed, and when he rolled in without hesitation and started skating the ramp, they immediately signed him to their team. "They called him Little Tricky," Jen says. Less than a year later, sports agency Octagon came calling and signed him to a management deal before his fifth birthday. That's a lot of expectations heaped on a little kid. But his siblings -- he has a younger sister and two older half-sisters and a half-brother -- say it never fazed him. He assumed every 5-year-old skateboarder had a manager. "Mitchie's always been a naturally levelheaded kid," says older brother Michael Wyman, 21. "He's never had a problem with all the fame or limelight."
And there was a lot of it. At age 5, Brusco was on the "Today Show." His picture appeared in skate and sports magazines. He won a small contest and, along with it, a trip to the Gravity Games, where he was the event's youngest competitor. "The oldest guy was like 39," Jen says. At that contest, he met another young up-and-comer named Chaz Ortiz, who was 9 at the time. The two quickly bonded and have been friends ever since, two success stories in a sports landscape littered with child prodigies who never made it. "What I've learned is to just let your kid skate," Jen says. "The skating speaks for itself. You don't need to push your son on people. He'll do all the talking he needs to with his skating."
Earlier this month, his skating didn't talk. It screamed. At a practice for the Nescau MegaRamp Invitational in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Brusco became only the second rider ever to land a 900 on the MegaRamp quarterpipe. The first was Bob Burnquist, X Games gold medalist and the skater who first gave Brusco a chance to ride the MegaRamp -- on his backyard ramp at his home in Vista, Calif., last July. For two days, Brusco walked to the top of the ramp, looked down the giant roll-in and walked back down the stairs. But at the end of the second day, "I built up the courage to drop," Brusco says. "I landed on my feet, then my knees and then fell forward." But the second attempt went better. And the third better still. "Then, slowly, you get better and better," Brusco says. "On the MegaRamp, you have to re-learn everything: how to ride, how to fall, how to land stuff, ride away, spin, do airs. The roll-in and the quarterpipe are the scariest part of the ramp." Which makes Brusco's 900 all the more impressive. "The quarterpipe is 28 feet tall, and I spin about 21 feet out of it," says the 5-foot-1, 95-pound skateboarder. "That's really high in the air."
In Brazil, he says the motivation to try the 900 sort of just struck him at practice. "I wasn't even thinking about it before," he says. "I just decided to do it and then I tried it and tried it and tried it -- and then I landed it. It was indescribable. Only six people, including me, have experienced what it's like to land a 900. It was amazing." And it earned him his first X Games invite, where he is the youngest skateboarder ever to compete in Big Air.
If he can land another 900 in Friday's final, it will likely be good enough for a win, and definitely land him on the podium. At Thursday's practice session, Brusco estimated he took about 100 runs, attempting the 900 in nearly half of them and landing it in just one. Still, it only takes one. He proved that in Brazil.
"The progression level has been substantial in the past year," says three-time Big Air champ and MegaRamp innovator Danny Way. "The next paradigm was going to be taking more risk on the quarterpipe and 540s were getting played out. I think, this year, Big Air will be a 900 contest."
Which means Burnquist vs. Brusco.
"Their 900s are so different, they're almost two different tricks," Way says. "Bob's is fakie-to-fakie, and I give him respect for that. And Mitchie doing it at 14 is amazing. I turned pro when I was 14 and I see so much of myself in him. He's so motivated and hungry and it'd be awesome to help him get really focused, so he could be the guy to keep this genre of skateboarding progressing and on track."

Chapter 3~
I was in darkness once again. Once again I have lost what I have started to build. Open your eyes.
I slowly opened my eyes to a dome-like place made out of marble with ten-foot tall men in suits staring down at me. They were sitting at a table with piles of paper. The man in the middle held a stack of pages, roughly seventeen sheets.
"Arisa Rune!" the man in the middle said, his voice booming across the area.
"Y-yes!" I stammered. God, this seems like an interrogation!
"We have reviewed your life! God has given us permission to send you back to Earth to repent!" he said.
"Why would I have to repent?" I asked desperately. For all my life, I have never gotten a grade lower than a B-plus and never gotten in trouble.
"That is God's decree!" he shouted. His voice echoed in my mind. He flicked his hand and I was soaring over blue skies. I looked back and saw white wings, with feathers not leathery, on my back.
Oh my dear lord of anything that's holy. I have wings! Real wings that could fly! I tried tucking them in and started to lose altitude. I extended them again and flapped. I rose on the warm air currents and soared above the clouds, the sun warming the place between the wings. I tucked in my wings and dropped down to a deserted part of a park. I found out that I was wearing black shorts with white thigh-high socks threaded with light pink ribbon and lilac Converse low-tops. I was also wearing a light pink v-neck t-shirt. It's a pretty fashionable outfit if you ask me. In my pocket, I found an envelope with a key inside of it and an address stating that I'll live in Toronto.
Somehow, I knew the place I had landed in was Music Garden. The garden is actually really close to the address stated on the envelope so I was lucky!

I started that way once too, don't worry hun. Just try rewriting some of the shorter, suspensfull parts. Good luck!
