Which is better: business or government?
Before you answer, consider two cases.
First, the Indiana Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Early this month, a federal investigation confirmed numerous problems at the agency that were first reported by The Indianapolis Star: mishandling of worker complaints, failure to perform investigations, discouragement of whistle-blowers.
Second, IBM. Last month, the Indiana Court of Appeals ruled that the state can continue to press its case to recover $177 million from the company because of the failed effort to privatize welfare benefits processing. IBM was hired in 2006, but three years and nearly half a billion dollars later, the state terminated the contract because of widespread problems with the implementation.
In the first case, a government agency, ostensibly motivated by public service, failed to perform a statutory duty designed to keep workers safe. In the second case, a corporation, presumably driven by the profit motive, failed to provide a service promised to its customer and lost the opportunity to continue earning profits from the job.
What the two cases have in common is that they both involve breakdowns within large, bureaucratic organizations. In that, businesses are actually quite similar to government agencies. Yet in popular discourse, it is business that is usually held out to be the paragon of efficiency.
Some politicians like to proclaim that government should be run like a business. Businesses, they argue, are beholden to customers and driven by competition that keeps them more accountable than government.
But businesses are also much more opaque to the public than government. When inefficiencies or corruption in an industry or business come to light, it is not typically because businesses are required to maintain public transparency. Mainly, as with IBM, it happens because of some catastrophic meltdown.
On the other hand, perceptions about rampant public-sector inefficiency are fed by our system of government openness. It's a necessary system given the fact of public funding, and the result is that government breakdowns (the botched roll-out of the Affordable Care Act, for instance) are often highly publicized.
We get regular doses of government misfeasance, malfeasance and nonfeasance, whether it comes from the media or government investigators themselves. We see the sausage being made, and it can be stomach-churning.
Not so with the private sector. Corrupt or inefficient business practices are easier to hide and more difficult for journalists and the public to discern. When they are discovered, it's often too late—the money's gone.
The IBM story is just the latest rebuke to the notion that business is always more efficient than government. "In the most basic aspect of this contract—providing timely services to the poor—IBM failed," the appeals court wrote in its decision last month.
There are enough other cases of spectacular inefficiency and corruption in the private sector to complicate our idea of the purity of the profit motive. (See also Enron and the most recent financial crisis. Oh, and is anyone up for investing some money with Tim Durham?)
The point here is not to demonize business but simply to suggest that business bureaucracies are no more virtuous than government ones. Regardless of motive—profit or public service—organizations by nature are susceptible to waste, fraud and inefficiency.
So the next time someone suggests government should be run like a business, it would be good to find out which business. In the end, it's caveat emptor. Let the buyer beware—regardless of whether the seller is a business or the government.•

Hillary Clinton spoke strongly about the police Monday at Fusion's "Black and Brown" forum in Iowa, comparing their violent "terrorizing" of certain communities to the violence enacted by city gangs and domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh.
"I know many minorities who are much more concerned with racist attacks at the local level than radical Islamists," a questioner said to Clinton, "so, to put it plainly, since often issues of racism are often tip-toed [around], do you believe that white terrorism and extremism is as much a threat to some in this country as something like ISIS?"
"I think we have all kinds of threats in our country, and I wouldn't discount any of them," Clinton said. "I think we have to take them all seriously."
Clinton went on to say she strongly supported President Obama's recent proposed gun control regulations, and she also discussed the white terrorism seen in the Oklahoma City bombing by McVeigh and the "communities terrorized by gangs."
"I think that when you have police violence that terrorizes communities, that doesn't show the respect that you're supposed to have from protecting people in your authority, that can feel also terrorizing," she said. "There are so many different kinds of potential violent acts, and we have to go after all of them … At some point, we all have to come together as a country again and stand against violence and do something to get the guns out of the hands of people who shouldn't have them, no matter who they are."

This review is from: HP ProLiant N40L MicroServer Server System AMD Turion II Neo N40L 1.5GHz 2-Core 2GB (1 x 2GB) DDR3 1 x 250GB LFF SATA 658553-001
Pros: This is a nice, little, quiet server. Its not very big in dimensions or weight. Makes a great home/SMB server. I immediately upgraded to 8GB mem and running Windows Home Server 2011. I utilized this server as a file and back up server. I also have incorporated Windows Server Update Services to update my pc's. This machine handles it all well for a 1.5Ghz processor.
Cons: It be nice if the bays were hot swappable, but thats a minor con. The power cable, if you decide to install a cd/dvd drive, is a 4 pin molex connector, but the data cable is sata, not a pata ide cable; therefore you need a cable adapter from 4pin molex to sata to install a cd/dvd, doesn't make no sense and it didnt come with an adapter which would've been nice. The door and drive trays are very flimsy plastic. To upgrade the ram you have to slide out the mobo, which is fairly easy, but I was afraid i was going to break the motherboard when I was trying to disconnect the hdd data cable from it. It was on so tight it took nearly ten minutes of slowly trying to loosen the connector, and two very sore thumbs to get the cable off. it would've been nice to at least have a 2.5GHz processor as running the backups do tend to max out the cpu at times. I dropped one egg due to the cable tightness and no power cable adapter.
Other Thoughts: All-in-all, for the price, excellent little server. It serves my needs very well. i do plan on purchasing another one. When you have 5 to 10 pc's, it is not economical to have backup software for each machine, burning to discs is time consumig and confusing. Much easier using one machine to back up all pc's. I have a RAID tower attached to the eSata port configured in a RAID 5+1 storing all my client pc backups, and an internal and external drive backing up my server.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Canon RS-60E3 Remote Control Wired Remote Switch
Pros: I am an ameteur photographer using a Canon Rebel DSLR and constantly attempting to take those hard to get shots (eg. Fireworks, lightning strikes, etc). Pressing the button on the camera creates a slight vibration that can greatly affect the shot, but using a remote such as this, you can create excellent results.
Cons: I wish my camera would accept a wireless remote, but this is no fault of this individual product. I do wish the cord was a little bit longer, otherwise, it does as it states every single time i use it.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition Thuban 6-Core 3.3GHz, 3.7GHz Turbo Socket AM3 125W HDE00ZFBGRBOX Desktop Processor
Pros: Unmatched power. This is the best CPU I own, and have yet to max it out. I use this on a computer I built specifically for use as an HTPC, and on occassion is used for first person shooter type of games. Great processor by an Awesome company (AMD!!!) and I have not even came close to maxing it out.
Cons: Cons?? What cons? Its AMD, and its a flawless processor, I may have to upgrade my other pc's to this one.READ FULL REVIEW

The Original HeavyRope is a weighted jump rope allowing an athlete to gain both a cardiovascular & upper-body strength workout in one. Its available in 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 pound weights. A suggested training program is included with each rope. Each rope is 8' in length.
How It Works
When an athlete jumps with the HeavyRope jump rope they want to let their arms flow out away from their body, allowing for a circular motion. This will enable your arms, shoulders and back to absorb the centrifugal force that the HeavyRope will create as it stretches during rotation. This workout will test your cardiovascular stamina while strengthening your upper body.
Comes with a FREE workout program so you can maximize your results!
Posted by K. Huggins on 21st Apr 2016
Recommended by my son's trainer, sand filled rope vs weights in the handles. He loves the heavy sand filled! We got a 6 lb, it's heavy but gives him an awesome shoulder & bicep work out & obviously legs. Great training product!

Very happy with Heavy Rope.

Well, the fact that the Michael Jackson estate wants a Michael Jackson movie made was inevitable and at the least they waited and thought about the decision unlike how quickly it was announced about a Steve Jobs biopic.
Given all the fame and controversy Michael Jackson had throughout the years and the recent decision from the Dr. Conrad Murray trial where he was found guilty, Variety is reporting that Michael Jackson's estate wants to a King of Pop biopic.
With Dr. Conrad Murray's involuntary manslaughter trial now over, John Branca, the executor of the Jackson estate, has approached Ivan Reitman and Tom Pollock's Montecito Picture Company about the possibility of producing and financing a Jackson biopic. Project would only cover certain periods of the late singer's life.
Pollock confirmed that the two sides are engaged in early talks but cautioned that there is no deal in place.
The estate is currently focused on Cirque du Soleil's "Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour," so there is no rush to get the movie into production.
What do you guys think? Who would you like to see playing Michael Jackson on the big screen?

Bob and All,
I did mention in an earlier post that as of right now 2 hotels are on strike
with another 7 possibly walking out at anytime. But the hosta people in
charge have been assured by the hotels that everything will go on just
fine..they are bringing staff from other hotels and have temporary workers on
And to let you know the pepsi bottling company is also on strike. For us die
hards on diet pepsi....Target has it on sale here and is still being able to
have it on the shelf. And I haven't noticed too much in a drop of stock, yet.
But if it gets hot...could go pretty fast.
Weather reports have rain for tuesday scattered showers for wed and sunny and
in the 80 for the rest of the week. Now if for once they are right...

Europe's fishing grounds were once among the world's most productive, but 40 years of mismanagement under the European Union's Common Fisheries Policy, or CFP, led to serious depletion of fish populations and degradation of the ecosystem. Europe's fishing became unsustainable, increasingly unprofitable and overly reliant on public subsidies. This has led to a decline in the economic viability of numerous coastal communities, the transfer of Europe's overcapacity (too many ships for the number of fish left) to developing countries' waters and the high seas, and an ever-growing reliance on imported fish.
In 2009, The Pew Charitable Trusts and its partners, the Coalition for Fair Fisheries Arrangements, Fisheries Secretariat, the new economics foundation and Seas At Risk, launched the OCEAN2012 coalition to support fundamental reform of the CFP. Since then the coalition has swelled from its original five groups to 192, representing 24 EU member states, and including fishermen's organisations, leading marine scientists, development agencies, environmental non-governmental organisations, aquaria, and others that share an interest in sustainable fisheries.
After more than four and a half years of concerted advocacy and public education by OCEAN2012 and other large NGOs, and fuelled by a groundswell of public support, European legislators took a huge step in May 2013 toward sustainable fisheries management. They set a target to end EU overfishing by 2015 where possible, and by 2020 at the latest. Finally adopted in December 2013, the deal which was brokered between the European Parliament, the European Commission, and all 28 EU member states, also seeks to greatly decrease the discarding of bycatch, a practice where tonnes of dead or dying fish are wastefully thrown back into the sea every year. In January 2014, a political deal was agreed by the European Parliament and the Council on EU subsidies that should help end overfishing.
The OCEAN2012 coalition has worked consistently over the years to end environmentally harmful subsidies to the EU fisheries sector and to reduce excess fishing capacity. As part of this effort, The Pew Charitable Trusts has supported FishSubsidy.org, a project that seeks to reveal how and where EU fisheries subsidies are spent.
Our WorkView All
EU Ministers Decide to Continue Overfishing
Fisheries ministers for the 28 European Union (EU) member states—meeting in Brussels as the EU Fisheries Council—struck a late-night deal Dec. 14 out of the public view on 2017 fishing limits for stocks in the Atlantic Ocean and adjacent waters. Read More
With 2017 Fishing Limits, It's Time for EU Ministers to Stop Putting Stock Recovery at Risk
Fisheries ministers in the European Union are still too often taking risks when setting fishing limits—with stocks, with the science, and with the law—as demonstrated by the outcome of the October Council meeting. Two more critical Council decisions on annual limits will be made before the end of 2016, so what is at stake? Read More
Crunch Time for EU Decision-Making on Fishing Limits
Fisheries ministers from the 28 European Union (EU) Member States meet 10 and 11 October to decide on 2017 fishing limits for the Baltic Sea, the first tranche for next year to be considered by the Council. More than ever, this will be a test of whether ministers are ready to implement the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) and make progress to end overfishing. Read More

This is the best peanut butter that we've had. I was skeptical about switching to Valencia peanut butter. Upon first taste by my finicky-eater husband, we were both sold. I personally think it has a lighter taste than the other peanut variety. I appreciate the fact this product is organic and that there is no added salt. Thanks iHerb!!
Nice and Smooth
Posted by Reviewer1469111 on Mar 01, 2012
For those without the desire to chew their peanut butter, this is a good choice. Smooth and creamy without anything added. The size of the jar is also highly recommended for serious peanut butter eaters...I go through one every two weeks. Finally, the natural oil separation is minimal in this batch making for easy from-package-to-spoon transfer. All around a great pb.

This review is from: SILVERSTONE FHP-141 140mm (120mm mounting holes) Case Fan
Pros: Blows Air Like a Hurricane. You want that sucker aimed RIGHT at your hotest component. Literally Droped my GPU temperature by 20 Degrees compared to old fan. Extremly Easy to Install.
Cons: Extremly Loud Terrible Terrible instructions. With the bad Instructions it difficult to figure out HOW to get the Max RPM
Other Thoughts: This fan runs from 500 - 1200 and 500-2000 RPM. Here is the catch (In my experience) if you have other fans pluged into the PWM case fans it will only run at 500 rpm and will not go above it. So when you install this fan unplug all others and set this into place and choose the setting either quiet or power. I'd go for power since when I changed it to quiet mid computer usage it went all wonky and would not go above 500 rpm. Get a Software fan controller leave it on power mode. And throttle it down when you want it to be quiet.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Cooler Master Blade Master 120 - Sleeve Bearing 120mm PWM Cooling Fan for Computer Cases, CPU Coolers, and Radiators

This review is from: Cooler Master Blade Master 120 - Sleeve Bearing 120mm PWM Cooling Fan for Computer Cases, CPU Coolers, and Radiators
Pros: Rubber pads and metal screws make it easy to install in MOST places where a 120 fan would be easy to install.
REALLY quiet even at its highest RPM setting.
No issues with detection or Ramping up to highest rpm at all.
For the price you just cannot go wrong.

Major/Minor Degrees
Major/Minor degrees enable you to create your own degree. You can study a core area in depth (your major subject), while also exploring an additional area (your minor subject).
Why not complement your Major with a subject that you enjoyed before, or which has vocational elements that can boost your career prospects? Alternatively, you may want to try something completely new that you've always been interested in, like a language.Find out more
Teaching and Assessment
For each module you will typically have one or two lectures and a seminar each week. Alongside these events will be a number of additional sessions, such as workshops on research and study skills, learning groups, introduced film screenings, and scheduled personal tutor meetings. Lectures are designed to introduce you to important background information for understanding a text, theme, or author. Weekly seminars, in which a tutor leads a small group of students in discussion, will allow you to explore a text or topic in greater depth, developing your own responses in active conversation with your tutor and peers.
For your third-year dissertation you receive one-to-one tuition across the term from a tutor with expertise in your chosen subject.
You will be assessed by range of different methods, in order to reflect the number of different skills you will acquire. You will be assigned a combination of essays, group-work projects, oral presentations, reviews, portfolios, and exams. These assessments are designed to help you build confidence in a range of areas and to provide prospective employers with evidence that you can work effectively both as an independent researcher and as a team member. Your final degree result will be based on the work you do in the second and third years of your degree.
You will have regular meetings with your Personal Tutor to discuss progress in your studies. Your Personal Tutor will also provide a sympathetic ear for all matters of personal concern, whether they be academic, financial, housing, career or social issues.

While battles may be fought in open fields and dingy courts, in reality they are only won in the daily struggle with society. With Ayodhya's long awaited judgment in our hands today, the fissures of communal biases become more prominent. Was the site to be divided in order to settle questions of claim and status? The Court treating the masses as one joint family cut the melon of "sanctified earth" between the two majority Indian communities - Hindus and Muslims. There exist numerous reasons and an enormous need to doubt and challenge that judgment. But, I think there is an equal need to recognize that judicial pronouncements ought not to delineate our ability to be secular as a nation, which we definitely failed to be in the Ayodhya case and fail to be, ever so often when we automatically turn neutral equations into communal ones.
The issue of communal solidarity has great significance for the cultural mosaic that India represents. Having birthed many faiths and witnessed life-cycles of various religions makes India unique. Few countries in the world offer such a variety in faiths and are religiously tolerant, and even fewer in the manner India de jure is. In contrast to the growing legislative trend overseas of pushing symbols of religion away from the public eye, the Indian government has not attempted to reduce the burden on the people. Within Indian society people are oft constrained to sport communal indications. Thus, the Indian scenario may rightly be described as being diametrically opposite to that in France today - where people are fighting for their right to expression, while in India people are often forced to wear their faith on their sleeves. The use of the purdah, naqab, burqa is neither prohibited nor mandatory in India. Rather the law is at an arm's length from the socio-religious rules (often in the form of fatwas and diktats), in its silence legitimizing their presence. It fails to acknowledge the impact on free will of these institutions of social control and the norms they propagate. Despite the nominal protection of personal liberties afforded under the Constitution, instances of religion being used as a tool to violate human rights are many and frequent. In these circumstances it is of utmost importance to have a clear social vision of what would constitute a trespass on human rights.
However, Indian society is fraught with such multi-layered questions, juxtaposing the rights of women, LGBTs and children against religious rights. Though that in itself would not create controversy, the imposition of religious diktats would. Notably, the Indian legislative mechanism has not yet recognised this growing need to resolve the conflict between free will and religious norms. Practices such as the use of sindoor and chuda by wedded Hindu women, social persecution for cutting of hair and discarding the turban by Sikhs, or refusal to wear the burqa by a Muslim woman are cases in point. Far from this, the country is grappling with an explosion in the incidence of honour killings, which is nothing but the application of communal rules to determine a person's right to live. The need for such determination of the right to life is then justified on the basis of matrimony outside one's cast – proscribed by religion. While the said act is illegal as it constitutes murder, there is nothing in the law to criminalize this process of the determination of rights. Neither the law nor society, in its local circumscription, comes to ones aid against this social institution. Since the law may not always be the most appropriate tool to proscribe a thought process one must once again turn to society.
While these instances are direct fall outs of religion, issues that may not fall but are forced in to the scope of religious speculation are more noteworthy. Foremost amongst these is terrorism, although such a weighty cannot be adequately covered in this forum. However, one may note the positive attempts to bring to light and improve the conditions of the oppressed that are often thwarted by a stout refusal to comprehend. Movies such as Water and Fire have been met with strong ire by religious groups. None of these groups present arguments based on research but are still successful in converting the subject of rights of widows and lesbians respectively to religion. In 2007 a student of art at Maharaja Sayajirao University (MSU) in Vadodara (Gujarat) came under fire when he depicted a nude Hindu goddess. Again freedom of speech met religion even though nudity appears often in texts and architecture! Further, sex-education has been vehemently opposed by religious groups in the country. The most common line of argument is that a woman's body is the site of 'community and family honour' and needs to be protected. This approach is contradictory, since it only leads to an increase in transmission of STDs and thereby fails to protect the body it so purports to hold in honour. The argument implies a community interest in the body of a woman, and consequently dis-empowers her to exercise full control over it. Similar arguments lie with respect to abortion, implying a control over sexual and reproductive behaviour, a right that should vest in the mother and not the community, for would the community pay for the education and development of the child?
The tendency of looking at neutral issues through a prism of religious bias leads to an unambiguous refusal to recognize human rights. It is as if the communal perspective has been dragged in when the same issues would be better dealt with a filter of humanness. Such a trend smacks of the sloth with which the Indian leaders belittle the relevance of contemporary social issues and rights of people arising not out of law but humanness. It signifies the consistent translation of "social" to "religious" within the bounds of Indian polity. While it is incorrect to take away all the credit that is well deserved for changes made in law, it is a long way before rights encapsulated therein become social realities. While Courts have granted legality to homosexuality, there is still a good deal of opposition based on religious grounds. Once again the opposition is not based on researched arguments, for Hinduism provides numerous instances in architecture and texts of prevalence and acceptance of homosexuality. There is also an argument that a gay couple was blessed by Jesus – giving religious sanction to the stigmatized orientation. But none of this helps in creating social acceptance of homosexuality. Only sustained awareness will culminate in acclimatizing the population and create a conducive environment for acceptance of these social facts and needs. But till then, a communal disguise ought not to be donned upon these issues.

Pros: So far so good, DX11. Now where are the games?
Cons: None yet.
Other Thoughts: I got this one using the reference design because I plan on doing a water cooling setup.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: OCZ Vertex 2 2.5" 115GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) OCZSSD2-2VTXE120G
Pros: This may be biased because I bought stock in OCZ ^^.
500MB/s. Enough said.
Cons: After firmware update drives performed as advertised IMO (~500MB/s in raid 0), but before the update I was getting ~300-400MB/s in raid 0. Not worth an egg deduction, but make sure you update the drives.
Another annoyance is that the 3.5" conversion bay screw holes were too small for my Antec Twelve Hundred, but with some effort those screws went in :). I would only advise to do that to the expansion plate only, because I am sure I stripped the screw holes and you would not want to do that to the drive itself.
Other Thoughts: This is my second OCZ product, but I am building up faith in them.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Logitech G110 LED Backlighting Gaming Keyboard
Pros: I like the audio AND USB port this keyboard has. I am not a fan of flashy keyboards, this one seems to be to the point. Keys feel good and are not loud.
Cons: Whenever I position my left hand on the keyboard I found out that I use the left CTRL key to get my hand into position. Because of the G1-12 keys my hand wonders to those and can't find their home. Not even worth an egg deduction, something I plan to get used to considering this keyboard is the best I have owned so far.
Other Thoughts: I have tried to purchase 2 other 'gaming' keyboards only to revert back to my old school IBM PS/2 keyboard because of faulty manufacturing or bad design. This is the first 'gaming' keyboard I plan on sticking with.READ FULL REVIEW

Wetwares by Richard Doyle
Book DescriptionThe mind of the machine, the body suspended in time, organs exchanged, thought computed, genes manipulated, DNA samples abducted by aliens: the terrain between science and speculation, fraught with the possibility of technological and perhaps even evolutionary transformations, is the territory Richard Doyle explores in Wetwares. In a manner at once sober and playful, Doyle maps potentials for human transformation by new ecologies of information in the early twenty-first century. Wetwares ranges over recent research in artificial life, cloning, cryonics, computer science, organ transplantation, and alien abduction. Moving between actual technical practices, serious speculative technology, and science fiction, Doyle shows us emerging scientific paradigms where "life" becomes more a matter of information than of inner vitality--in short, becomes "wetwares" for DNA and computer networks. Viewing technologies of immortality--from cryonics to artificial life--as disciplines for welcoming a thoroughly other future, a future of neither capital, god, human, nor organism, the book offers tools for an evolutionary, transhuman mutation in the utterly unpredictable decades to come.

Singularity of Literature by Derek Attridge
Book DescriptionWinner of the ESSE (European Society for the Study of English) Book Award for Literature 2006 Literature and the literary have proved singularly resistant to definition. Derek Attridge argues that such resistance represents not a dead end, but a crucial starting point from which to explore anew the power and practices of Western art. In this lively, original volume, the author: * considers the implications of regarding the literary work as an innovative cultural event, both in its time and for later generations; * provides a rich new vocabulary for discussions of literature, rethinking such terms as invention, singularity, otherness, alterity, performance and form; * returns literature to the realm of ethics, and argues the ethical importance of the literary institution to a culture; * demonstrates how a new understanding of the literary might be put to work in a 'responsible,' creative mode of reading. *The Singularity of Literature is not only a major contribution to the theory of literature, but also a celebration of the extraordinary pleasure of the literary, for reader, writer, student or critic.

Ah, you have two CF:s. And my mistake was that I accidentally treated bits as bytes ;) My calc is that the bloom filter sizes per node for you should be about 1.8-1.9 GB. If you haven't touched heap size, IIRC the default is still going to be 2GB for your 4 GB machine (not sure, please confirm if it matters). That might be consistent with what you're seeing; BF:s taking almost all of available heap size, so pretty easy to cause OOM:s by throwing traffic on it. -- / Peter Schuller (@scode, http://worldmodscode.wordpress.com)

American alternative rock group whose breakthrough album, Nevermind (1991), announced a new musical style (grunge) and gave voice to the post-baby boom young adults known as Generation X. The members were Kurt Cobain (b. February 20, 1967 Aberdeen, Washington, U.S. —d. April 5, 1994 Seattle, Washington), Krist Novoselic (b. May 16, 1965 Compton, California), and Dave Grohl (b.

From Aberdeen, near Seattle, Nirvana was part of the postpunk underground scene that centred on K Records of Olympia, Washington, before they recorded their first single, Love Buzz (1988), and album, Bleach (1989), for Sub Pop, an independent record company in Seattle. They refined this mix of 1960s-style pop and 1970s heavy metal –hard rock on their first album for a major label, Geffen; Nevermind, featuring the anthemic hit Smells Like Teen Spirit, was the first full expression of punk concerns to achieve mass-market success in the United States.

"People all over the world watching television who've been in denial about China's rapid growth now finally see it's for real."

Are you trying to say that Max is dead, because it was the dead Joe that replied? If so, it took me a 2nd read to figure that out. It has a great cast, i like the lopsided hit man, best.
Well that was short... LOL and yes it did make me laugh, just picturing this actually being performed just cracked me up a bit lol
That was... Something... I'm not even sure what to say about it. Amusing and confusing. Very unusual. I like it.

It seems that it could be all change at the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), with new arbitration rules anticipated to come into force later this summer. The draft rules, which the LCIA published earlier this year, were the subject of lengthy discussions by the LCIA Court on 9 May 2014. The Court's decision as to which of them will be adopted has yet to be released; however, it is anticipated that those that are approved will enter into force later this year.
The draft rules promote procedural efficiency, support adherence to ethical standards and propose new mechanisms by which parties to an LCIA arbitration can address emergency situations. The relative merits of the key amendments are considered below.
Imposition of ethical standards
Arguably the most innovative proposal in the new rules, which is the imposition of conduct guidelines for legal representatives, is tucked away in an annex. These guidelines are applicable to all legal representatives appearing before an LCIA tribunal and provision is made for the tribunal to police adherence to them. A tribunal can impose significant sanctions in the event of default.
In summary, the guidelines prohibit legal representatives from:
Sanctions that a tribunal can impose in the event of breach range from a written reprimand to, at the most severe end of the scale, "reference to the legal representative's regulatory and or professional body" (Article 18.6).
Although these provisions share similarities with the IBA guidelines on party representative ethics, the LCIA is the first major arbitral institution to propose such rules. It is to be hoped that they are adopted and set a trend for arbitral institutions imposing strict ethical standards.
The conduct of the parties will also come under scrutiny by the tribunal when determining costs, "including any co-operation in facilitating the proceedings as to time and cost and any non-cooperation resulting in undue delay and unnecessary expense" (Article 28.4).
Appointment of an emergency arbitrator
The current rules permit parties in situations of "exceptional urgency" to apply for the expedited formation of the tribunal. However, as an alternative, the draft rules offer parties the option of applying for the appointment of a temporary sole arbitrator (an "emergency arbitrator") in order to obtain emergency relief (Article 9B). We understand that this particular proposal will be adopted, which would bring the LCIA rules into line with similar provisions in the ICC, SIAC and HKIAC rules.
Once appointed, the emergency arbitrator will have 20 days to make a decision on the application for emergency relief. A hearing will not be necessary but reasons must always be given. Any award or order by an emergency arbitrator must be confirmed by the arbitration tribunal (once formed), within 21 days, otherwise the order or award by the emergency arbitrator will lapse automatically.
Procedural efficiency
Pursuant to the draft rules, candidates for appointment as arbitrators are required to declare that they are "ready, willing and able to devote sufficient time, diligence and industry to ensure the expeditious conduct of the arbitration" (Article 5.4). Once appointed, the tribunal has a continuing duty under Article 14.4(ii) to adopt procedures to ensure not only fair proceedings but also those that are "efficient and expeditious" by "avoiding unnecessary delay and expense".
Further amendments designed to encourage procedural efficiency are as follows:
Seat of the arbitration
As under the existing rules, parties will be free to agree the seat of the arbitration. In the absence of agreement, the default seat is London (Article 16.2). However, this will only apply until the formation of the tribunal, after which the tribunal may determine that another seat is more appropriate. The default seat will be of no relevance to the LCIA Court when appointing arbitrators, which is of some comfort to those concerned that an English law bias may prevail when arbitrating through the LCIA.
Conclusion: positive proposals
A stringently applied ethical code, the availability of an emergency arbitrator and the focus on procedural efficiency (which in turn will affect the costs of an LCIA arbitration as well as reduce the potential for any satellite litigation) are all positive proposals, which it is to be hoped are adopted by the LCIA Court. While the emergency arbitrator provisions serve to bring the LCIA in line with other leading institutions, the other proposals discussed above (notably the new ethical standards) offer a point of difference. If adopted, these proposals should help to make the LCIA an even more attractive institution for prospective parties.
