Boehner joins the not-quite-a-lobbyist ranks
September 21, 2016 | Count former House Speaker John Boehner as the latest not-quite-a-lobbyist. For nearly a decade, the number of registered lobbyists has slipped each year.

A big factor is whether he thinks he can raise the money for a third race in four years. Also, how the fiscal cliff legislation came to include tax credits benefiting many large corporations, and why New Jersey and New York matter to lawmakers like John Boehner.

Last week, during the firm's Annual Employment Law Seminar, we offered a session on complex issues under the FMLA. The session made two things totally clear.
One, no made for TV movie could ever be more entertaining than the fact patterns that come to HR. Two, pretty much all FMLA issues are complex.
A few consistent questions cropped up and many of these related to employer control.
Employers have the right to designate appropriate leave as FMLA.
This is not necessarily the choice of the employee. But you need supervisor buy-in to identify and track FMLA. Without cooperation, we find a lot of informal leave and "work arounds" resulting in an employee who has already been gone 20 weeks, still has a full FMLA allotment and the supervisor/buddy is now fed up.
Information is critical.
If we have knowledge of the need for FMLA, we have to provide the forms, make sure the employee understands the policy and designate it within five days of becoming aware of the need for leave. Whether HR knows or just the supervisor, the clock starts ticking. Failure to communicate or designate on the part of the employer can be deemed interference with leave.
Employers also have the obligation to track leave and provide notice of its use to the employee. This means consistent follow up and communication.
Part of the problem can also be physician communication.
Physician delays, mistaken withholding of information based on HIPAA and incomplete certification all pose problems with FMLA leave. Many physicians have also begun charging for FMLA paperwork creating a barrier for employee compliance. A letter to the physician outlining issues and providing a job description can help with some of these issues - so long as you have express permission from the employee or have the employee deliver the letter.
Work comp is also an issue.
It runs concurrently with FMLA but you can't require the employee to use PTO at the same time. If the employee is on light duty sorting paperclips that is time worked and not FMLA. Further, many employers have policies that discipline employees who fail to accept reasonable light duty assignments or may even fire such employee. Under the rules, if they have FMLA available that is to be exhausted. Termination for refusing light duty may end work comp but it doesn't end the employee's right to FMLA.
Oh...and your girlfriend's mom? Probably not FMLA.

BRM V16 Engine Sound
The awesome engine sound from the BRM V16. A formula one car that was used in the 50s
The Sound of BRM V16 (In-Cabin clip included)
The Sound of BRM V16 F1 car. This was and still is a truly amazing car and motor. Built in the late 1940's and early 1950's, the motor was an approximately 1.5 liter(1487.76 CC) V16 fed by a Supercharger peaking at 5.7 bar(82.7 PSI) of Boost and revving to an astounding 12,000 RPMs and producing approximately 600 peak HP. I can honestly say that this is the most beautiful sounding engine I have ever come across. Some of the pictures in the video are not of the actual BRM V16 engine itself or the same car producing these amazing sounds, so please do not use those pictures as basis for comment on the motor design or layout. I personally favor the In-Car portion of this video which starts at about 3:05.

Even minor concessions to the needs of working parents have caused 'peer jealousy' and deterred several firms from setting up creches or giving direct financial support, the study found.
Around 160 employers in and around Macclesfield, Cheshire, with more than 4,200 workers between them, were questioned about child care provision, assistance and requirements within the workforce. Most were unable to say how staff turnover was influenced by employees having children, and only eight firms said they had a child care policy.
Two-fifths of the workers questioned were women. Nine out of ten who gave birth last year intended to return to work, but less than two-thirds actually did so after maternity leave.
The majority of firms confined their assistance to part-time working, job-sharing and granting leave for employees with sick children. Only 1 per cent provided financial help with child care or provided creches and nursery places.
'The impression given was that many respondents regard their female workforce as being replaceable. It also appears there is a problem of 'peer jealousy' when even minor concessions are made to working parents in respect of child care,' the report states. The research was commissioned by the Macclesfield Chamber of Commerce and Industry and carried out by management consultants.
As a result, businesses did not feel they were under any great pressure to retain their working parents, and had no immediate plans to change practices or policies on their behalf.
A separate questionnaire survey of 138 working parents in the borough revealed an acute shortage of affordable child care, particularly after school and during school holidays.
The study also found little awareness of organisations that campaign for equal opportunities. 'National pressure groups concerned with women's rights and child care, and women's organisations in general appear to have made little impact in Macclesfield, either with employers or parents,' it says.

People are mad at Ryan Braun. So much so that a fan decided to go to a Brewers game this week wearing his jersey but with a twist. According to USA Today Sports, Karen Eidem wore Braun's jersey, but she placed the letter F over the B in his name and the letter D over the N. Basically, it said Fraud. Upon seeing the jersey, stadium security informed Eidem that if she didn't take the shirt off she would be immediately escorted out and that was the end of that (or so they thought). Eidem decided to take her story to the media, and reaction from the Brewers team wasn't surprising. They issued a statement saying: "In this case, the fan absolutely should have been able to wear the jersey without any intervention by our staff. We welcome the opportunity for fans to express their opinions. The only circumstances that would warrant us intervening is if someone were to display a message or item that would be considered offensive to other fans. This is not a case where that line was crossed, and we're sorry for the inconvenience to her. We will reach out to Ms. Eidem to invite her to another game this year as our guest." This probably won't be the end of these kinds of antics, but it would be interesting to see what plays on Arod's name the fans in New York will have.

This case involved the unusual situation of a dual proceeding in the Court of Chancery and the Superior Court. In the Chancery action, the Sellers of Iron Data Solutions, LLC ("Iron Data") sought to compel disbursement of funds escrowed in connection with that sale. Meanwhile, in the Superior Court action, the Buyer of Iron Data asserted a right to indemnification and payment from those escrowed funds for breach of certain representations and warranties made by Iron Data. In this memorandum opinion, the Court of Chancery granted in part the Sellers' motion to dismiss the Buyer's complaint filed in the Superior Court (i) with prejudice to the extent that it claims a bad faith breach of contract and (ii) for breach of contract against the Sellers' Representatives without prejudice to the Buyer's ability to amend its complaint to name all Sellers as defendants. In all other respects, the Court denied the Sellers' motion to dismiss.
On May 9, 2011, the plaintiffs in the Superior Court action, a Delaware corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary (together, the "Buyer"), entered into an agreement to purchase all of the outstanding units of Iron Data (the "Purchase Agreement"). The Buyer named only as defendants those unitholders who were managers of Iron Data either at or before the time of the sale (the "Individual Defendants," together with the unnamed additional selling unitholders, the "Sellers"). Among other things, the Purchase Agreement named defendants Anvil Holding Corporation and Thompson Street Partners II, L.P. as Sellers' Representatives (the "Sellers' Representatives"). It also provided for indemnification by the Sellers in certain circumstances, including for breach of Iron Data's representations and warranties made in the Purchase Agreement.
In its complaint, the Buyer asserted claims based on representations made in the Purchase Agreement, or "on-contract" representations, and claims based on extra-contractual, or "off-contract," representations. The Buyer alleged that Iron Data breached these representations because one of its most important contracts was set to change to a materially lower basis. Further, the Buyer alleged that the Individual Defendants deliberately withheld this information from the Buyer in order to induce it to purchase Iron Hill. As a result, the Buyer sought indemnification and asserted claims of fraud and bad faith breach of contract against the Individual Defendants, and breach of contract against the Sellers' Representatives.
With respect to the Buyer's fraud claims against the Individual Defendants generally, the Court found the Complaint pled with particularity a claim against each Individual Defendant for fraud. In addition, the Court found the Individual Defendants were sufficiently tied to the alleged fraud because, as sellers and managers of Iron Data, they possessed the knowledge that allegedly made the representations false. Regarding the claims based on "off-contract" representations, the Sellers argued that the parties disclaimed any reliance on extra-contractual representations in the Purchase Agreement, which provided that, except for certain representations and warranties made in the Purchase Agreement, neither Iron Data nor any Seller "makes any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect to [Iron Data] . . . or any Seller or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement." In addition, the parties agreed that the Purchase Agreement "constitutes the entire Agreement among the Parties (and the Sellers' Representatives) with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede[s] all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement."
The Court rejected the Sellers' argument, finding that the language in the Purchase Agreement did not reflect a "clear promise" by the Buyer that it was not relying on statements made outside of the contract's "four corners" to make its decision to enter into the agreement. In doing so, the Court acknowledged that while Delaware courts will honor clauses in which sophisticated parties disclaim reliance on extra-contractual representations, under the Delaware Supreme Court's decision in Abry Partners V, L.P. v. F & W Acquisition LLC, 891 A.2d 1032, 1058 (Del. 2006), the Court will not do so unless a contract contains language that amounts to a "clear anti-reliance clause" by the party with respect to extra-contractual statements and its decision to sign the contract. The Court held that the relevant provisions contained in the Purchase Agreement indicated only that Iron Data represented that neither it nor any Seller was making any other express or implied representations or warranties and that the Purchase Agreement constituted the entire agreement of the parties. Accordingly, these provisions did not create the "double liar" problem where allowing the Buyer to prevail on its fraud claim would sanction the Buyer's own fraudulent conduct in having falsely asserted that it would not rely on extra-contractual representations had it expressly stated such in the agreement.
Regarding the Buyer's bad faith breach of contract claim against the Individual Defendants, the Court dismissed it as duplicative of the Buyer's fraud claim and permitted the complaint to proceed as an ordinary breach of contract claim against the Individual Defendants subject to the requirements imposed by the Purchase Agreement's indemnification procedures. The Court then found the allegations contained in the complaint were sufficient to conclude that the Buyer adequately followed those procedures. With respect to the Buyer's breach of contract claim against the Sellers' Representatives, however, the Court found that the Buyer's failure to name all of the Sellers as defendants warranted dismissal of its claim against the Sellers' Representatives but without prejudice to its ability to amend the complaint in this regard.
The full opinion is available here.

Admirals score plenty, but it's just enough to beat Monsters
Milwaukee scored a season high for goals Sunday but almost blew a four-goal lead in the final period.
The Admirals also matched a season best with three power-play goals and even scored a short-handed goal, but they also gave up a shorty and allowed Lake Erie to score two power-play goals.
It was one of those crazy games, but fortunately for Milwaukee, it held on for a 6-5 victory over the Monsters in front of 3,588 people at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
"It was a lot of everything," Admirals coach Dean Evason said. "But all in all, we liked the effort that our hockey club put in. Clearly we didn't think that we should be short-handed as much as we were in the third period. There were some strange things going on out there. Certainly our power play was good and we did a lot of great things early."
Like score three times in the final 8-plus minutes of the opening period for a 3-0 lead to halt a six-game losing streak to Lake Erie.
Another positive was a four-point game from Filip Forsberg, who was reassigned from Nashville on Friday for the third time this season.
"It's a great opportunity for me to come here and play a lot," said Forsberg, who has five goals and seven assists in nine games with the Admirals. "I'm just trying to play as good as possible and then we'll see when, hopefully, they'll call me up. Until then, I'm just going to work as hard as I can here to be as prepared as possible."
But it wasn't all positive for Milwaukee, which avenged two losses at Lake Erie last weekend by a total score of 10-3.
The Monsters trailed, 6-2, after a power-play goal by Miikka Salomaki with 19 minutes 19 seconds left.
Only three teams in the AHL have fewer points on the road than Lake Erie, but instead of packing it in while playing its third game in three days, the Monsters started a comeback on a goal by Joey Hishon with 18:28 remaining.
Hishon's third goal of the game, this one on the power play, cut the deficit to 6-4 with 3:25 to go.
Milwaukee's lead was down to 6-5 after Matt Hunwick skated past Forsberg in the left circle and scored on a shot from the left goal line that sailed over goalie Scott Darling with 1:20 remaining.
Lake Erie failed to get off another shot, and that was a relief for Darling, who lost both games in Cleveland last weekend after being named goalie of the month in December.
"I didn't play good at all," Darling said. "The boys bailed me out. When they score six goals, there's no way we should ever lose a game. It shouldn't have been that close. I guess I just made it interesting. They played great. The offense was there. Defense was there, too. I just got beat short-side twice, and I couldn't make a big save to slow them down. Luckily the guys pulled it out for me."

Academic Paper
|Trends in assessment scales and criterion-referenced language assessment
|Thom Hudson
|University of Hawai'i at Mānoa
|Linguistic Field:
|Applied Linguistics; Language Acquisition
|Two current developments reflecting a common concern in second/foreign language assessment are the development of: (1) scales for describing language proficiency/ability/performance; and (2) criterion-referenced performance assessments. Both developments are motivated by a perceived need to achieve communicatively transparent test results anchored in observable behaviors. Each of these developments in one way or another is an attempt to recognize the complexity of language in use, the complexity of assessing language ability, and the difficulty in interpreting potential interactions of scale task, trait, text, and ability. They reflect a current appetite for language assessment anchored in the world of functions and events, but also must address how the worlds of functions and events contain non skill-specific and discretely hierarchical variability. As examples of current tests that attempt to use performance criteria, the chapter reviews the Canadian Language Benchmark, the Common European Framework, and the Assessment of Language Performance projects.

Practice areas & skills: Personal Injury, Financial Markets and Services, Communications & Media
A personal injury lawyer works with clients who have suffered a physical or emotional injury, usually by accident or mistake. They cover cases such as car accidents, botched surgery, and harassment. Personal injury attorneys know how the insurance claim process works, they know what evidence to gather, and they know how to calculate and present a claim for damages. Many personal injury attorneys take cases on a contingency basis, which means they receive an agreed-upon percentage of the payment you receive, also called the personal injury settlement. If you don't recover any money, they don't get paid their fee. Personal injury lawyers also know how to defend you if someone thinks an injury is your fault.

Basketball wins, and football competition heats up
Here are your USC updates for Saturday...
On the football field, Coach Lane Kiffin revealed that quarterback Matt Barkley -- still recovering from a sprained shoulder -- won't practice until at least Dec. 26, when the Trojans are scheduled to arrive in El Paso for final Sun Bowl preparations. Will that be enough time for Barkley to be game-ready? If not, Max Wittek will start, but the Trojans are using upcoming practices as a way to kick off the spring competition between Wittek and Cody Kessler. Read more about it here...
Quarterback competition for next season begins early at USC
Then, over at Galen Center, the Trojans made easy work of UC Riverside in a 70-26 victory. Jio Fontan shot well, and the Highlanders shot worse than any opponent in USC history. The most interesting part of the game, though, was that leading scorer J.T. Terrell didn't check in until 1:22 remained in the second half of the blowout. Why? Coach Kevin O'Neill wanted to make a point to Terrell, to Ari Stewart (who also left the bench only briefly) and to the rest of the team about playing hard. Read more about it here...

The geometric shapes and natural forms, captured with exceptional precision in Ernst Haeckel's prints, still influence artists and designers to this day. This volume highlights the research and findings of this natural scientist. Powerful modern microscopes have confirmed the accuracy of Haeckel's prints, which even in their day, became world famous. Haeckel's portfolio, first published between 1899 and 1904 in separate installments, is described in the opening essays. The plates illustrate Haeckel's fundamental monistic notion of the "unity of all living things" and the wide variety of forms are executed with utmost delicacy. Incipient microscopic organisms are juxtaposed with highly developed plants and animals. The pages, ordered according to geometric and "constructive" aspects, document the oness of the world in its most diversified forms. This collection of plates was not only well-received by scientists, but by artists and architects as well. Rene Binet, a pioneer of glass and iron constructions, Emile Galle, a renowned Art Nouveau designer, and the photographer Karl Blossfeld all make explicit reference to Haeckel in their work.

- Abstract:
- This paper presents a dynamic international trade model based on monopolistic competition, where observed intra-industry differences at a given point in time reflect different stages of the firm's life cycle. New product varieties of still higher quality enter the market every period rendering old varieties obsolescent in a process of creative destruction. For given technology (variety) production costs decrease after an infant period due to learning. It is shown that several patterns of exports may arise depending primarily on the size of fixed trade costs. At a given point in time firms therefore differ due to different age, although all firms are symmetric in a life cycle perspective. The paper thus offers an alternative view on firm heterogeneity compared with other recent papers, where productivity differences appear as an outcome of a stochastic process.

I'll wait here forever,
if that what it takes.
Until your eyes open,
and finally you'd wake.
You might not know I exist,
I feel like the lonely girl out of millions.
But when you actually talk to me,
I'm like a lucky star out of billions.
My head is in the clouds,
my thoughts headed in the sky.
Your the person I dream about,
Your that perfect guy.
My friends think your weird,
my family doesn't know you.
But like I said,
I'll be waiting here forever,
until you thought it all through.
But until that day,
I'll be waiting on this cloud for you.
"What is waiting within us,
is more than we can imagine
more than we could ever, ever dream
take these eyes
and let them feast
on the beauty within You." -Prem Rawat

Bugatti Grand Sport Sang Bleu - Click above for a high-res image gallery
With so many special edition Veyrons, we're starting to wonder if Bugatti is still making any regular versions. To their credit, this is only the first unique version of the Grand Sport model that made its debut at Pebble Beach this time last year. Named the Sang Bleu, the latest Veyron variant was unveiled at the Quail Motorsports Gathering yesterday and features a body comprised of polished aluminum and carbon fiber tinted in Royal Blue. The only other differences between the Sang Bleu and the standard Grand Sport are the Gaucho leather seating and wheels that have a Diamond Cut finish and Midnight Blue trim. Check out our live pictures below or read more about the car after the jump in case you missed the official announcement yesterday.

Chat-Bot Fools Judges Into Thinking It's Human
In a content, judges need to guess whether they are chatting to a human or machine.
In a content, judges need to guess whether they are chatting to a human or machine.
Krichmar, et. al, UC Irvine
We have tech from every corner, including sensitive robots, garden sensors, 3D-printed cars and motorcycles that shoot grenades. Above, Carl's Junior is a "sensitive" robot that looks like a turtle with colored lights across its shell. This therapeutic robot is being used at a nearby school to help with children on the autism spectrum who seem to respond well to an inanimate, yet responsive object.
Marty Laurita
Fire trucks, ambulances and other emergency vehicles can get stuck in traffic like everyone else. Designer Marty Laurita has a better idea: an emergency motorcycle that runs on compressed air. The Angell Unit houses tool kits on both sides of the bike's headlamp that contain a crowbar and fire axe, as well as fire suppression grenades. At $7,000 and a top speed of 80 miles per hour, these cycles could be the first on the scene.
Sensors and smartphone apps are sophisticated enough that they're moving into every corner of the planet, including backyard gardens. A company called Edyn has environmental monitors that keep track of light, humidity, temperature, soil nutrition and moisture. The data is then cross-referenced with data in the local area in order to recommend plants that will do well in the conditions. An automatic watering device sprinkles the right amount of H2O and everything can be watched via an app. See thevideo
for more details.
Talk about getting immersed in art. The Eye Resonator art installation at Newcastle University consists of a large copper dome that's lowered over a person's head. Eye-tracking technology inside the dome fixates on the person's eye motion as well as pupil dilation to produce an audio-visual feedback loop represented in images of swarming birds, insects, fish and plankton. The aim of the Eye Resonator, according to the developers, John Shearer, of the University of Lincoln, UK, and digital artists at Newcastle University, is to react to the viewer's state of arousal and then constantly revise the audio and visual pattern, encouraging the viewer to achieve a balanced state of a control and relaxation.
Local Motors
Arizona-based Local Motors recently held the world's first 3D-Printed Car Design Challenge and this week, they choose the winner from more than 200 groups. The top prize went to a two-seater buggy called Strati, designed by Michele Anoé. The car will be printed this September at the International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago.
At the solar thermal test plant at CSIRO in Newcastle, Australia, researchers achieved a world record with solar power. They were able to produce ultra-hot, ultra-pressurized steam, which can be used to drive turbines at advanced power plants. To date, this kind of heat has only been generated by coal or natural gas. Doing it with solar energy represents a huge milestone in using renewable energy to produce electricity.
In the Philippines, this floating billboard is being used to clean the polluted Pasig river. The billboard is made from Vetiver, a perennial, non-invasive grass frequently used to treat wastewater and stabilize landfills. In a system such as this, the Vetiver, which can tolerate nitrates, phosphates and heavy metals, is expected to clean 2 to 8 thousand gallons of water per day.
Szymański Sylwester
Drone are getting a bad rap these days. Some are used for surveillance and others drop bombs. But this drone just wants to help. The Unmanned Aerial Rescue Vehicle (UARV) concept, designed by Szymański Sylwester, operates in mountainous areas to aid in the search and rescue of missing people. It can deliver food and medical aid as well as help illuminate a search area for rescue personnel.
Philadephia's Franklin Institute has a new permanent exhibit that allows visitors to climb through a two-story neural network, explore brain images and learn how scientists study the brain.
This computer program is getting real. Real human, that is. A chat-bot named Eugene Goostman convinced a panel of judges that it was human.
The circumstances under which this Tom-foolery happened where quite strict. They were part of a text-messaging interaction called a Turing Test, named after mathematician Alan Turing, who devised a method for determining the humanness of artificial intelligence. The test is considered a gold standard and to date no computer has passed under the circumstances laid out in this study.
Will Artificial Intelligence Destroy Us?
"Some will claim that the Test has already been passed," Kevin Warwick, a visiting professor at the University of Reading told the BBC. "The words Turing test have been applied to similar competitions around the world. However, this event involved the most simultaneous comparison tests than ever before, was independently verified and, crucially, the conversations were unrestricted."
In the test, 150 judges communicate via text messaging with two contestants, one human and the other a machine. The judges need to guess whether they are chatting to a human or machine. If the machine wins more the 30 percent of the rounds, it's regarded as having passed the test.
On Saturday, a chat-bot named Eugene Goostman, which simulates a 13-year old boy, fooled 33 percent of the judges into thinking he was human.
Intelligent Robots Will Overtake Humans By 2100
But Eugene is not taking over the world yet. The goal of the event was not to get artificial intelligence to a level of world dominance, Celeste Biever wrote in New Scientist. Rather, the organizers wanted to "encourage/inspire children to take up computing and robotics, is also about awareness and prevention of cybercrime," she said.
Besides, do you really want a 13-year old running the world? Intelligence, even artificial, should get beyond puberty.

Phonegap mobile app for blog network
This project received 8 bids from talented freelancers with an average bid price of € EUR.Get free quotes for a project like this
Project Budget€750 - €2500 EUR
Total Bids8
Project Description
We need a mobile app, developed with phonegap ( [url removed, login to view] ) that will be available for iPhone, iPad, Android and BlackBerry. Minimum system requirements should be the ones specified by phonegap.
The app is a content agregator from a set of websites (6 sites), using the websites RSS feeds. In case you need a different way to get the information from the websites, just send a comment.
The user can select the sites that are displayed on the home screen as a list, listing site names and logo. Using a preferences panel, user will be able to specify which websites he wants to subscribe. If the user has not specified a list of websites, all websites will be shown. The configuration is displayed first time is launched. Also the user will be able to specify the frequency to retrieve new content from the website (30 minutes, 60 minutes, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 24 hours). From now on, the landing page show the list of suscribed sites.
On every selected site:
+ First click on a site, will lead the user to a list of news for that site. First time the app loads, it will get last 20 articles. After that, it will get new ones.
+ News are marked as read once the user has browsed until the end of the article.
+ The user will be able to mark articles for reading later.
+ The articles that has been read must be taken into account. After the user has read an article, it should disappear from the list of articles unless it has been marked for later read.
+ The user will be notified every time there is new content available on those websites, after the app checks for new content.
+ Quick and user friendly article browsing, as flipboard app or google currents.
+ Link to the next article at the end of every article (Image and title of the next article), so we can send the user to the next news on that feed.
+ User can share the article (twitter, Facebook, G+)
+ The app will have integration with Google Analytics to track pageviews.
The app will include version control and should be able to notify the user when it needs to be updated (in case the user is not getting the app from official app stores). In case the app needs updating, it should warn the user and open the mobile phone browser and send to the download page.
The app will react to screen rotation, and adapt the design accordingly, at least on iPad/iPhone and Android.

Hello out there, I'm looking for conditions or how much snow is around in the area. Past reports are about 3 weeks old and I'm just curious. I'm heading down this weekend to attempt Sneffels and just wanted to see if I could get the most current status. Thank you to anyone who can help.
