Very Special Guests
May 13, 2010 by insideout
Many of you know that we are scheduled to officially open our Cape Cod Inn on May 27, 2010 for Memorial Day weekend. We just had an unofficial opening with a couple of very special guests. About 6 weeks ago a movie producer stopped by our Inn to see our renovations and request if we would be able to accomodate a couple of actors for a short film he was producing in May. We told him we were officially opening the bed & breakfast Memorial Day weekend but we felt that we could open early for his guests. We are very pleased to let you know that we hosted two wonderful guests over the past four days. Mr Robert Vaughn and Ms. Melissa Errico McEnroe. What talented and lovely people. We thoroughly enjoyed being their home away from home and listening to them practice their lines for the upcoming film "Patrimony" which we understand is scheduled to be premiered at
the Sundance Film Festival next January. Read a Playbill story on the movie:
The veranda awaits
May 13, 2010 by insideout
The major renovation of our cape cod bed & breakfast veranda is complete! We are starting to put the rockers and wicker furniture out for all guests to enjoy and it very tempting to take a break and just enjoy the beautiful spring weather. I can just imagine the original owners in their finery having afternoon tea enjoying the cape cod air and beautiful gardens.
A good cleaning
May 7, 2010 by insideout
One of the jobs we knew we had to do at our cape cod bed & breakfast was to clean the pink granite pillars at the entrance to the Inn. After some prep work and then a good power washing the granite looks fabulous. Below is a before and after picture for you to see.

WASHINGTON — Past its own New Year's deadline, a weary Congress sent President Barack Obama legislation to avoid a national "fiscal cliff" of middle class tax increases and spending cuts late Tuesday night in the culmination of a struggle that strained America's divided government to the limit.
The bill's passage on a 257-167 vote in the House sealed a hard-won political triumph for the president less than two months after he secured re-election while calling for higher taxes on the wealthy.
Moments later, Obama strode into the White House briefing room and declared, "Thanks to the votes of Republicans and Democrats in Congress I will sign a law that raises taxes on the wealthiest 2 percent of Americans while preventing tax hikes that could have sent the economy back into recession."
He spoke with Vice President Joe Biden at his side, a recognition of the former senator's role as the lead Democratic negotiator in final compromise talks with Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, of Kentucky.
In addition to neutralizing middle-class tax increases and spending cuts taking effect with the new year, the legislation will raise tax rates on incomes of more than $400,000 for individuals and $450,000 for couples. That was higher than the thresholds of $200,000 and $250,000 that Obama campaigned for. But remarkably, in a party that swore off tax increases two decades ago, dozens of Republicans supported the bill at both ends of the Capitol.
The Senate approved the measure on a vote of 89-8 less than 24 hours earlier, and in the interim, rebellious House conservatives demanded a vote to add significant spending cuts to the measure. But in the end they retreated.
The measure split the upper ranks of the Republican leadership in the House.
Speaker John Boehner of Ohio voted in favor, while Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia and California Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the party's whip, opposed the bill.
Supporters of the bill in both parties expressed regret that it was narrowly drawn, and fell far short of a sweeping plan that combined tax changes and spending cuts to reduce federal deficits. That proved to be a step too far in the two months since Obama called congressional leaders to the White House for a postelection stab at compromise.
Majority Republicans did their best to minimize the bill's tax increases, just as they abandoned their demand from earlier in the day to add spending cuts to the package.
"By making Republican tax cuts permanent, we are one step closer to comprehensive tax reform that will help strengthen our economy and create more and higher paychecks for American workers," said Rep. Dave Camp of Michigan, chairman of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee.
He urged a vote for passage to "get us one step closer to tax reform in 2013" as well as attempts to control spending.
Rep. Frank LoBiondo (R-2), who voted yes to the fiscal cliff deal, said the compromise provides "certainty and stability in their taxes."
"While I'm disappointed the necessary tough decisions on reducing our spending and bringing down the $16 trillion debt were not addressed, this compromise protects South Jersey's small businesses who file their taxes on an individual return," LoBiondo said in a statement.
"Without this legislation, an average $5,030 tax increase would be felt by New Jersey families — the third-highest in the country according to the nonpartisan Tax Foundation," he continued. "Furthermore, an estimated 2 million New Jersey households would have been ensnarled by the AMT. With my constituents struggling to rebuild in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy on top of years of a stagnant economy, I'm not willing to place additional financial burdens on them in pursuit of the elusive 'perfect deal'."
House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi also said the legislation included "permanent tax relief for the middle class," and she summoned lawmakers to provide bipartisan support as the Senate did.
The bill would also prevent an expiration of extended unemployment benefits for an estimated 2 million jobless, block a 27 percent cut in fees for doctors who treat Medicare patients, stop a $900 pay increase for lawmakers from taking effect in March and head off a threatened spike in milk prices.
It would stop $24 billion in across-the-board spending cuts set to take effect during the next two months, although only about half of that total would be offset with savings elsewhere in the budget.
The economic as well as political stakes were considerable.
Economists have warned that without action by Congress, the tax increases and spending cuts that technically took effect with the turn of the new year at midnight could send the economy into recession.
Even with enactment of the legislation, taxes are on the rise for millions.
A 2 percentage point temporary cut in the Social Security payroll tax, originally enacted two years ago to stimulate the economy, expired with the end of 2012. Neither Obama nor Republicans made a significant effort to extend it.
House Republicans spent much of the day struggling to escape a political corner they found themselves in.
"I personally hate it," Rep. John Campbell, of California, said of the measure, giving voice to the concern of many Republicans that it did little or nothing to cut spending.
"The speaker the day after the election said we would give on taxes and we have. But we wanted spending cuts. This bill has spending increases. Are you kidding me? So we get tax increases and spending increases? Come on."
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor told reporters at one point: "I do not support the bill. We are looking, though, for the best path forward."
Within hours, Republicans abandoned demands for changes and agreed to a simple yes-or-no vote on the Senate-passed bill.
They feared that otherwise the Senate would refuse to consider any alterations, sending the bill into limbo and saddling Republicans with the blame for a whopping middle class tax increase.
Despite Cantor's remarks, Speaker John Boehner took no public position on the bill as he sought to negotiate a conclusion to the final crisis of a two-year term full of them.
The brief insurrection wasn't the first time that the tea party-infused House Republican majority has rebelled against the party establishment since Republicans took control of the chamber 24 months ago. But with the two-year term set to end Thursday at noon, it was likely the last. And as was true in earlier cases of a threatened default and government shutdown, the brinkmanship came on a matter of economic urgency, leaving the party open to a public backlash if tax increases do take effect on tens of millions.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said the measure would add nearly $4 trillion over a decade to federal deficits, a calculation that assumed taxes would otherwise have risen on taxpayers at all income levels. There was little or no evident concern among Republicans on that point, presumably because of their belief that tax cuts pay for themselves by expanding economic growth and do not cause deficits to rise.
The relative paucity of spending cuts was a sticking point with many House Republicans. Among other items, the extension of unemployment benefits costs $30 billion and is not offset by savings elsewhere.
Others said unhappiness over spending outweighed fears that the financial markets would plunge today if the fiscal cliff had not been averted.
"There's a concern about the markets, but there's a bigger concern, which is getting this right, which is something we haven't been very good at over the past two years," said Rep. Steve LaTourette of Ohio.
For all the struggle involved in the legislation, even its passage would merely clear the way for another round of controversy almost as soon as the new Congress convenes.
With the Treasury expected to need an expansion in borrowing authority by early spring, and funding authority for most government programs set to expire in late March, Republicans have made it clear they intend to use those events as leverage with the administration to win savings from Medicare and other government benefit programs.
McConnell said as much moments before the 2 a.m. Tuesday vote in the Senate — two hours after the advertised "cliff" deadline.
"We've taken care of the revenue side of this debate. Now it's time to get serious about reducing Washington's out-of-control spending," he said. "That's a debate the American people want. It's the debate we'll have next. And it's a debate Republicans are ready for."
The 89-8 vote in the Senate was unexpectedly lopsided.
Despite grumbling from liberals that Obama had given way too much in the bargaining, only three Democrats opposed the measure.
Among the Republican supporters were Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, an ardent opponent of tax increases, as well as Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, elected to his seat two years ago with tea party support.
Associated Press writers Andrew Taylor, Larry Margasak and Julie Pace contributed to this story.

We are comfortable sharing our Profit & Loss Statement with the public. We want you to know how your monies are spent.
This year was my second time at the Hyde County Duck Hunt, and man it was even better than last year. It's awesome to have an opportunity to fellowship and enjoy the brotherhood of fellow service members, all the while enjoying the great outdoors in the form of duck hunting! It's enough to just have the opportunity to come to Hyde County to hunt, but when you throw in landowners that would practically give you their waders so that you can enjoy the hunt, it just made the experience that much better...
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for my experience on the Combat Warrior Deer Hunt in Franklin County this past November. The Combat Warrior Organization and all the local supporters made this event absolutely unforgettable. Owning a company in the outdoor industry I know firsthand the logistical requirements it takes to plan, resource, and execute such an event. Being also an Active Duty member of the United States Army...
From the first time I was introduced to Combat Warriors and every time thereafter I could tell what a quality organization this was. You got me back in the woods and water after my injuries that sidelined me and I will forever be grateful. I look forward to every event, not just for the event itself, but for the time spent with other service members and all the patriots of your organization. Every event means time spent with friends and making new ones, a chance to...
I have attended several of the Combat Warrior events. These guys are by far some of the greatest Americans that I have known. The events bring Warriors in contact with...
I was invited to attend a duck hunt hosted by Combat Warrior in January, 2013. Not knowing what to expect, a buddy and I arrived prepared to sleep in our truck and eat canned tuna for the weekend.

Award Win for Spanish Estate Agent Amidst Soaring Sales
Murcia estate agent Mercers has taken five star "Best Real Estate Agency Spain" in the International Property Awards Europe in association with Yamaha. The news completes a fantastic September which has seen the highest sales volume since 2005.
Chris Mercer, Director of the 28-year-long-
It seems the hard work is paying off as not only did September bring an award win but it also delivered Mercers' best sales figures in seven years. Buyers are coming from various countries, Belgium to Sweden, Spain to Holland, and a strengthening of interest from the UK which is reassuring. Very few buyers are pure investors, most are looking for personal use maybe with an eye on wintering or retiring in the region in the future.
Chris continues, "Like the rest of Spain we have been affected by the "crash" however house hunters are homing in on Murcia for a number of reasons. Prices are very attractive, most are buying within the 50,000 to 150,000 euro price bracket, and even at the bottom end of that range you can still get two bedrooms on a golf course. Meanwhile the all-new Corvera Airport will be fully operational by Easter week 2013 and the Paramount-licensed theme park has pledged to open its doors in 2015 – this all helps to explain our trend-bucking surge in sales. We're also lucky enough to have a loyal and skilled sales force, a strong online presence and we do plenty of marketing regardless of the economic climate."
To cap a fantastic month, Mercers has just taken the keys to a new office premises within the Camposol Golf resort. A few metres from their old HQ, the new office was until recently occupied by a Spanish high street bank and has the advantage of a corner position with no less than five window displays. Mercers has been based in Camposol Golf since 1998 and steadily raised its public profile on the development over the years.
On the Market in Murcia:
Ref NEC87 – Emeralda Villa, Camposol Golf, Mazarron
This two bedroom two bathroom Emeralda-style villa has a large built area of 139m² and is set on a private 600m² plot complete with 8m x 4m swimming pool and summer kitchen / barbecue with remotely controlled mood lighting. Unique to Camposol, this villa was intended to be a three bedroom floorplan but the current owners opted for space and reduced it to two larger bedrooms, one with a large terrace accessed via French doors. It would be possible to re-convert back to three bedrooms with relative ease. Extras include satellite TV, air-conditioning, a wood burner in the lounge, a newly fitted kitchen with granite worktops, internet connection, alarm system and irrigation for the garden. Camposol Golf has an 18-hole golf course, four star Spa hotel and plenty of shops, restaurants and bars on site. The blue flag beaches and marina of Mazarron are within a 15 minute drive.
The price has recently been reduced by 20,000 euros to 179,995 euros (approx 145,000 GBP)

Project Description
Hey All,
We have a new product soon to be launched (currently in pre-release, [url removed, login to view] is the site for it). It is a desktop application that we primarily plan to market through Clickbank. To this end, we require some guidance on how best to integrate the whole purchasing process over at CB with our site. I understand that IPN is quite common these days so we will need (correct me if this is wrong / incomplete):
1. PHP server code to parse out the IPN 'variables'.
2. Storage of these order variables in MySQL DB.
3. Alert pre-defined list of company operatives (email I guess) of orders as and when they come in.
4. Included within the alert should be a unique ID such that we can generate a serial key to send to the customer (btw - am open to suggestions on how best to go about this).
5. Would require a web 'interface' (page) which provides some limited reporting on the # of orders, order status etc.
Think that's it for now. Just holler if you have any questions or need any clarification !

The Prodigal Hero
I've heard many good things about Nancy Butler's Regency Romances, so I gave The Prodigal Hero a try. I have to say that, despite some minor problems, I thoroughly enjoyed this story of "the cripple and the malcontent" as our hero describes himself and his heroine.
Alexandra Prescott has fought her cousin Darwin Quincy's attentions for a long time. It's not love that draws Quincy to the hoyden who keeps besting him at every contest, but her money. Although Alexa is the daughter of an upstart shipbuilder, she is the daughter of a rich upstart shipbuilder, and Quincy is up to his ears in debt. When Alexa refuses to pretend she is betrothed to Quincy, he plots to have her kidnapped in order to force her into marriage. He doesn't count on the mysterious MacHeath to overhear and take Alexa from right under his nose.
Alexa fights her abductor, but slowly she comes to believe him when he says he is her rescuer and to realize MacHeath is much more than a mere outcast. Macheath is, in fact, Simeon Hastings, a man who was her father's heir years ago, until he was found stealing by none other than Darwin Quincy and sent to jail. A tender moment in a barn shakes Simeon to the core, and he can't deny feelings of love, commitmment and a life with Alexa are surfacing in him. For Alexa, Simeon even sets foot on a boat, although he is still haunted by the boating accident that cost him a hand.
Alexa wants to reach her father's house safely to tell her side of the story, but she doesn't realize that she has seriously miscalculated where her father is concerned, for although Quincy is the villain of the story, Alexander Prescott is certainly no hero and is no help to his daughter. I wish he'd gotten more payback for all the years of suffering he caused Alexa.
Alexa may have been taught to be a proper lady, but her true spirit shines through. She instinctively believes in Simeon, so much so that when he wants to tell her what really happened between him and her father years ago, she stops him – it is simply not necessary to her, and she'd rather Simeon understand that she trusts him without actual proof of his story. Alexa is not perfect though. Her lapses in judgment had me shaking my head at times. She should know better than to go out alone when Quincy's men are after her, but she does it anyway, with predictable consequences.
Fear and rejection have deprived Simeon Hastings of his real life. The scene where Simeon is completely undone by Alexa's casual reaction to his fake hand is very sweet; she is simply admiring how cleverly the object works with none of the revulsion or rejection he's expected. He realizes early on that Alexa is the woman for him, but when external forces conspire to keep them apart, it takes him a while to realize what his true worth is.
The Prodigal Hero is a different book in the sense that it is not the usual comedy of manners I associate with a Regency Romance, but its well-defined characters and rewarding plot will make it an enjoyable read whether you are a fan of Regencies or not.

Hey everyone I'm new to this forumn but not to hunting. I'm from MN but was recently stationed out west in NM by the Air Force. Being new to western hunting, and actually having some substantal disposable income for the first time in my life I'm looking to buy some quality optics. Right now all I have is a set of Swift 10X50 binoculars which seem decent to me in my limited experience so I was planning on buying a spotting scope first. I'm starting to reevaluate this though, as most of areas near where I live (Alamogordo NM) seem to less open and more forested than I expected. So basically I'm looking for opinions first as to whether I should buy better binoculars or a spotting scope and second, recommendations on specific models. I'm looking to spend $400-$700. So far I've looked at spotting scopes and am thinking either a Nikon prostaff or a Leupold. Any other suggestions? Thanks for your help.

Nob Hill Theatre, the all-genders-welcome male strip club, is holding it down on Bush Street, and after several decades of D, it's still S.F.'s only place to see full-frontal guys up close, seven nights a week (for $20).
There are a number of reasons why you should see a show at The Regency Ballroom — its ornate, turn-of-the-century architecture and eclectic lineup of performers, to name a few — but no reason is more compelling than the venue's ample seating.

Worm Factory 3-Tray Worm Composter
List Price: $89.95
Available from this online seller
Put nature to work for you with easy and efficient worm composting. All of your kitchen waste, waste paper and cardboard packages will be transformed into fertile compost, ready for your garden plants. Experienced gardeners say that worms make the best compost available for amazing results with your flowers and vegetables. This composter offers an innovative design with multiple stacking trays for maximum efficiency. Worms start the compost process in the bottom tray, then head upwards when their work is complete, leaving the lower tray worm-free and ready to use. The main product of this process is fertile worm castings, but another byproduct is a nutrient rich liquid called leachate which collects in a collection tray and can be accessed through a drain valve.
Just place the little workers in the bottom tray with your organic materials and let them go to work for you. Then add more trays when the first one is filled. Remove the lower tray and collect the fertilizer and then start the process all over again. The composter is compact and easily fits in any home while holding the maximum capacity of materials. The trays are lightweight and easy to move. A complete guide comes with the Worm Factory and will help you get the most out of your compost maker.
Product Details
- Composed of recycled post-consumer plastic
- Measures 16 square inches and 13 inches deep
- Features an easily accessed liquid fertilizer collector

How to make a small effective compost bin?
HI 🙂 I've been planning to make a compost bin for a while now, but this week I finally have the time to do it! Problem is, that I'm not sure what kind of bin would be the best choice for a relatively small garden. I've read quite a few pages on the internet, but they all seem to be saying different things. If anyone has a compost bin or atleast knows what one would be the simplest, quickest, but effective option to make (OR BUY) please let me know 🙂
Thanks loads!

Canada Stocks Rise as Easing Ukraine Tensions Offset JobsEric Lam and Callie Bost
Canadian stocks rose, trimming a second weekly decline, as signs that tensions are easing in Ukraine outweighed concern over crises in the Middle East and data showing national employers added fewer jobs than forecast.
Magna International Inc. rallied 6.5 percent, the most in more than two years, after boosting its sales outlook. SNC-Lavalin Group Inc. dropped 2.8 percent after second-quarter profit missed analysts' estimates on declining revenue. Enerflex Ltd., an oilfield services company, jumped 10 percent as more bookings helped it report better-than-expected profit.
The Standard & Poor's/TSX Composite Index rose 77.88 points, or 0.5 percent, to 15,196.31 at 4 p.m. in Toronto. The benchmark slipped 0.1 percent this week.
Stock gains accelerated in afternoon trading as Russia's Defense Ministry said warplanes had ended drills in the region near Ukraine while RIA Novosti earlier reported that Russia offered to mediate between the government in Ukraine and the separatists that it's battling.
U.S. President Barack Obama approved airstrikes in Iraq, and rocket attacks marked the end of a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas. Investors have been watching developments in geopolitical crises for signs of slowing global economic growth.
Canada added 200 jobs after a decline of 9,400 in May, while the country's unemployment rate fell to 7.0 percent as people left the labor market, Statistics Canada said today in Ottawa. Economists had projected a 20,000 job increase according to median forecasts. The economy has alternated monthly jobs gains and losses for nine straight months.
Auto Parts
Magna rose 6.5 percent to C$122.24 after reporting higher profit and sales than analysts had forecast. The auto parts maker also increased its 2014 sales guidance to $35.6 billion to $37.3 billion, from $34.9 billion to $36.6 billion.
Linamar Corp. rallied 5.2 percent to C$64.23 and Martinrea International Inc. added 5.6 percent to C$14.09 to pace gains among consumer discretionary stocks. Six of 10 industries in the S&P/TSX advanced.
Avigilon Corp., a security solutions provider, sank 11 percent to C$22.07, the worst decline in three months. The company reported earnings that fell short of estimates and expenses for sales, marketing and research and development expenses increased.

The Zagat Review
It's like "chocolate heaven" at this Back Bay chain link proffering "ingenious", "Wonka"-like dessert concoctions for "all ages", plus adult beverages – and "don't discount" the savory American comfort eats either; some feel it's "somewhat expensive" for the genre, but the "fun", "loud", "kind-of-crazy setting" is still "worth going to", "even if it's just to inhale the heavenly scent."

Well!! certainly it was not an issue of the theme!. It is a little config. change in the categories configuration you have to do.

Event Detail:
The medical device industry is under exceptional economic pressure with the advent of the medical device tax and the trend by insurers to limit the amount to be paid for specific hospital procedures. At the same time, the manufacturing process is among the most highly regulated in the world to ensure patient safety, so the cost pressure must be balanced against the highest quality standards.
Polymers can replace metals in many situations and reduce costs by molding one part instead of multiple components. The plastics industry offers advice on material selection, properties and processing to medical device designers. Many companies have registered polymers with the FDA in a Drug Master File, to assist with the approval process. However, a lot of resin suppliers limit the use of their materials in medical and pharma applications and this is another factor to consider. This restriction on polymer selection has led to many medical manufacturers linking up with research institutes to develop their own new material supplies. Healthcare is improving all the time and the innovations need new plastics and elastomers with appropriate properties.
Medical Grade Polymers 2013 brings together medical device manufacturers and polymer suppliers, and aims to cover all aspects from innovative devices to biocompatibility testing. Experts in medical device design, manufacture and testing along with polymer producers and manufacturing machinery suppliers attend these events to discuss the latest developments in markets, technical and regulatory issues, and production technology.

With fewer trials and an increasing focus on using the discovery process to leverage a favorable settlement or resolution, it is common for litigation counsel to be obstructionist during discovery. For example, counsel may interpose depositions with unwarranted boilerplate objections or subtly (or not so subtly) coach the witness by clarifying or commenting on the pending question. While such conduct is often ignored, it has contributed to rising litigation costs throughout the last decade and, as a sanctions order issued at the end of July by a federal judge in the Northern District of Iowa demonstrates, it can severely diminish counsel's credibility before the trial judge. In light of the impact that discovery tactics can have on the cost and success of litigation, it is increasingly important for general counsel to set clear expectations when retaining attorneys to represent the company in litigation.
In Security National Bank of Sioux City, Iowa v. Abbott Laboratories, Civ. No. 11-4017, Doc. No. 205 (N.D. Iowa Jul. 28, 2014), U.S. District Judge Mark W. Bennett of the Northern District of Iowa sanctioned defense counsel sua sponte for his actions during several depositions and ordered counsel to write and produce a "training video" explaining appropriate attorney conduct. Bennett took note of what he considered obstructionist conduct when reviewing deposition testimony to rule on objections for trial. In a 33-page opinion, Bennett criticized counsel for making unnecessary and excessive objections to form, coaching the witness by making speaking objections and seeking independent clarification of pending questions, and frequently interrupting opposing counsel. Counsel never became abusive or used profanity. Indeed, the attorney conducting the deposition never sought relief from the court or requested that any sanctions be imposed. Nonetheless, Bennett concluded that counsel had violated the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and had substantially frustrated the discovery process. In his view, sanctions were justified and necessary to change counsel's "obstructive deposition practices" and deter "others who might be inclined to comport themselves similarly."
One noteworthy aspect of Bennett's opinion is that, although clearly inappropriate, the conduct described by the court is not a rarity during depositions. Perhaps baseless objections and interruptions do not normally occur as excessively as they did in this instance. However, most litigators have encountered at least a few attorneys who make vague and excessive form objections and interpose unnecessary comments during the deposition, often in an effort to control the deposition and encourage the witness to provide more favorable, limited answers.
With trials becoming less common, discovery has become the focus of litigation. Controlling the discovery process is a necessary and important aspect of effective litigation. Only about 2 percent of federal civil cases go to trial, according to a 2010 article from The National Law Journal titled "Two Federal Judges Offer Differing Takes on Declining Trial Numbers," and cases are often won or lost during discovery, where facts are developed for dispositive motions and settlement. Attorneys often seek to control or limit discovery by being obstructive during depositions, objecting to legitimate discovery requests and inappropriately delaying the production of relevant evidence.
Attorneys may also increase the burden and cost of discovery by requesting or producing an excessive number of irrelevant documents, expanding the scope of litigation far beyond the evidence relevant to the claims being litigated. A 2010 study titled "Litigation Cost Survey of Major Companies" estimated that 1,000 pages of documents are produced for every single page entered as an exhibit at trial or during summary judgment. Among the largest companies in America, major cases involved the production of more than 4.9 million pages of documents.
Many attorneys refuse to cooperate during discovery because they believe it will force their adversaries to settle or will be advantageous later in the litigation. However, Bennett identified another reason attorneys may object to legitimate discovery requests: They believe clients expect them to frustrate the adversary. Corporate counsel must consider whether it is in their interest for their attorneys to frustrate the adversary while increasing the cost and burden of discovery, and risk losing credibility with the trial judge in the event counsel's conduct is brought to the attention of the court.
It is unclear that obstructive tactics ever prevent opposing counsel from obtaining discoverable information, but they undoubtedly increase the cost and burden of discovery. Despite the fact that the number of trials has decreased over the last decade, litigation costs have risen an average of 9 percent per year, according to the litigation-cost survey. Between 2000 and 2008, litigation costs among Fortune 200 companies nearly doubled from $66 million to $115 million, despite the fact that attorneys' hourly rates barely changed during the same time period. Indeed, some studies have estimated that, for most companies, litigation costs match the costs paid to plaintiffs in settlement and judgments.
These excessive costs are ultimately borne by clients, and corporate attorneys must be aware of the discovery tactics being used by outside counsel. Focusing discovery on the issues necessary for settlement or trial can bring cases to an efficient resolution, while encouraging overly aggressive tactics only to settle on the eve of trial is likely not a long-term cost-effective litigation strategy.
General counsel must also consider the effect that obstructive conduct may have on a determination of the case's merits. Bennett's opinion is a paramount example of how courts view efforts by counsel to frustrate or abuse discovery. Deposition transcripts are often filed with the court in connection with motions or in anticipation of trial. The court's review of those transcripts may shape its view of the attorneys or the parties' legal positions. Appearing to be unprofessional is poor advocacy.
As discovery has become a principal factor in the success and efficiency of litigation, it is increasingly important for general counsel to set standards for the company's litigation attorneys. Companies should remain informed as to how their outside counsel are responding to discovery and should work with counsel to develop a clear discovery strategy for each case. Together, the company and its litigation counsel must consider discovery tactics that will reduce the cost of discovery while providing a strategic advantage for dispositive motions and settlement.

Pandorum (2009)
Plot Summary
Two crew members are stranded on a spacecraft and quickly - and horrifically - realize they are not alone. Two astronauts awaken in a hyper-sleep chamber aboard a seemingly abandoned spacecraft. It's pitch black, they are disoriented, and the only sound is a low rumble and creak from the belly of the ship. They can't remember anything: Who are they? What is their mission? With Lt. Payton staying behind to guide him via radio transmitter, Cpl. Bower ventures deep into the ship and begins to uncover a terrifying reality. Slowly the spacecraft's shocking, deadly secrets are revealed...and the astronauts find their own survival is more important than they could ever have imagined.- Written by Overture Films
In 2174, the natural resources of Earth are exhausted and the spacecraft Elysium is launched to the planet Tanis in the last hope of mankind. Due to the long travel, the crew-members are divided in teams that travel in extended hyper-sleep, rotating in shifts along the trip. When Corporal Bower from Flight Team 5 wakes up due to a malfunctioning of his chamber, he is disoriented and with amnesia. But soon he realizes that the reactor is not working and provoking power surges in the ship. Then Lieutenant Payton also awakes and they find that they are locked in a room but the access door to the bridge is not reactivated. Bower moves through the ventilation trunk trying to open the door from outside. Sooner he discovers that there is some weird threatening life form in the ship and running is always the best option to survive. When he meets the biologist Nadia and the strong farmer Manh, they team up trying to reach the reactor and save their lives. Meanwhile, Payton rescues Corporal Gallo in the room, but the menace of the paranoid Pandorum psychological trauma seems to be affecting Gallo.- Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
A pair of crew members aboard a spaceship wake up with no knowledge of their mission or their identities.- Written by Producer
The film begins in space with title cards appearing, referencing the technological evolution of space travel...See full synopsis » (Warning: contains spoilers!)

NEW YORK -- Mike Tirico, one of the original hosts when ESPN Radio launched in 1992, will take over part of the daily sports-talk time slot previously held by Dan Patrick.
"The Mike Tirico Show" will debut Thursday from 1-3 p.m. ET. Tirico serves as the play-by-play commentator for "Monday Night Football" and the NBA Finals on ESPN.
"It is a thrill to return to my roots in two different ways," Tirico said in a statement, "as radio is the medium where I started my career during my college days at WAER in Syracuse, and I remember being part of the team the first weekend ESPN Radio hit the air in January of 1992. I am really looking forward to returning to the day-to-day sports conversation that is talk radio."
Stephen A. Smith, who previously hosted 1050 ESPN Radio's "Stephen A. Smith Show" from noon-2 p.m. weekdays, will host New York's 2-4 p.m. slot, with the final hour going national on ESPN Radio. Both shows can be heard live, daily, on ESPNRadio.com.
Patrick announced in July that he was leaving ESPN after 18 years.
"With Monday Night Football, the NBA Finals and now a daily radio platform, Mike Tirico has arrived at the pinnacle of sports broadcasting with premier assignments in television and radio," said Norby Williamson, ESPN executive vice president for studio and remote production.
Tirico has long been considered one of the most well-traveled commentators in the business. He once said he generally spends up to 200 days each year on the road.
"I do participate in the sports conversation every day by covering the NFL and the NBA and all the college sports that I've covered and my years doing 'SportsCenter' and golf as well," Tirico said, according to The Associated Press. "I really do have a broad experience and have met a lot of people."
Tirico will be joined on a regular basis by other ESPN commentators. An announcement will be made at a later date.
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.
