Have you ever seen the movie "the butterfly effect"? It's a bit of a dumb question because I haven't seen it… but I did see the ad! that movie ad introduced me to the butterfly effect theory. Basically, it says that one small thing results in something huge. the reason it's called the butterfly effect is because it was hypothesised that a hurricane can be traced back to a butterfly flapping its wings in a far off place several weeks before. It's a pretty awesome theory if you think about it – I mean, just consider how many butterflies there are! Maybe, if you step on one, it will throw off the whole world's equilibrium! maybe it's just me… but I ain't standin' on no more butterflies!
Anyway, I was sitting in a conference recently and heard someone talking about butterflies. And because my brain works in strange and mysterious ways, I started to think of the butterfly effect and how his story about butterflies affected my views on the butterfly effect. And here is the awesome thing that I discovered: as cool and monumental as the butterfly effect is, the "Christian Butterfly Effect" is about a million times cooler!
If a butterfly could change weather and nature, could a Christian change society and culture? After all, they are both guided by the same God…
Think about the impact that a single Christian could make on society if this is true! A choice that I make today could alter the course of another person's life, maybe multiple people's lives. Having written a church history exam this morning, I have a fresh perspective of the impact of specific Christians. Without Calvin, a lot of our reformation may never have happened. Were it not for Elizabeth (bloody Mary's heir) we may still be fighting it out between the Catholics and Protestants.
We all like to think we can make a difference. We base life choices around making a difference – what am I good at? Where can I excel? Who should I work with? We look up to people like Mother Theresa, Nelson Mandela and, dare I say it? George Clooney. Why? Because all of them have been influential. All of these people have changed lives.
But the multiple people's lives who were touched by Mother Theresa were still individuals. Nelson Mandela saw people and not simply a country. The great thing about Christianity is that it's all about the people. Love for one another. A choice made today could impact the person next to you. Tomorrow, that person could impact someone else. And with each new act of deliberate godliness, the impulses will start to create ripples that cannot be stopped.
If we properly believe in God's ability and strength, we should believe that the smallest of deeds done in faith could have momentous outcomes. One life saved all, but your life could be the beam directing people to safety.
So I ask you, if you knew your life would make a difference through every small action, what would you change? Could you keep living the way you're living now, knowing that each step could be changing something? If you truly believe you can make a difference and honestly want to make one, what does that mean for the life you have now – your actions, choices, and decisions?
Spend a day in that Butterfly's shoes. It may only live a day, but it could cause a hurricane. What are you doing with your day?

Dear All
A number of Mob Members, with the support of the APC, have recently discussed the idea of establishing an 'Australian Paralympic Committee Athletes' Commission' (Commission).
The purpose of the Commission is to represent the views of Paralympic athletes to the APC. The precise roles and responsibilities of the Commission will be established at the first Commission meeting, but may include things like: making recommendations to the APC on athlete-related matters, having one member sitting as an observer in APC Executive meetings and providing feedback to the Commission, reviewing APC policies and directives, and providing feedback to the APC regarding athlete concerns. Commission members will essentially be liaisons between the athletes and the APC.
At this stage we are calling for nominees to the Commission. We hope to have a fully elected Commission in the next 4 years, however to get things started, co-captains Danni Di Toro and Kurt Fearnley will be appointing up to 11 Paralympians (minimum of 8/maximum of 9 Summer and minimum of 2/maximum of 3 Winter athletes) to the Commission. Nominees must be Paralympic athletes. Of the 11 appointed positions, up to 3 athletes may be filled by retired athletes and the remaining 9 must be currently competing athletes. There will be no more than 1 male and 1 female athlete appointment from each sport and the gender split of the Commission will be not less than 4 male and not less than 4 female Summer athletes and not less than 1 male and not less than 1 female Winter athlete. When considering which athlete to nominate, please consider those athletes that display strong leadership qualities and a willingness to make the time commitment to attend up to four meetings per year.
Please complete the Nomination Form below and email it to Danni and Kurt at firstname.lastname@example.com and email@example.com. The deadline for nominations is 5pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 12 April 2017. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards
Danni and Kurt

Au Revoir Simone at the Black Cat
I ventured into what I think was a sold out We Are Scientists show at the Black Cat last night, despite continued torrential downpours, to see the lovely women of Au Revoir Simone opening (didn't stay for the other acts). Man, I felt like and old man at this show because most of the kids in the front had their usual double X's. It got crowded very quickly when the band started.
Au Revoir Simone are three ladies on keyboards who sing pop songs. I got their self-released album, verses of comfort, assurance and salvation, a couple months ago, and I love it. The harmonies of Wilson Phillips with an indie/electronic sensibility. Live, they sounded much fuller, and it was cool that people in the front started getting into them and dancing.
After their set, I went over to them in the back, bought a t-shirt, and spoke some with Heather and Erika from the band (pictured above). Dreamy indie women talking to the geeky fanboy blogger. It made my night.
Au Revoir Simone - "Hurricanes"

USA warplanes conducted more than 20 airstrikes in Yemen as the Pentagon continued an intensifying campaign to strike targets associated with al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, the Pentagon announced Thursday.
Jeff Davis, a Pentagon spokesman, said the strikes were aimed at degrading the group's ability to "coordinate external terror attacks" and to limit its use of Yemen as a "safe space for terror plotting".
Al-Qaeda in the Arab Peninsula, or AQAP, has seeped into Yemen's ungoverned spaces where they plot, direct and inspire attacks against US and allied targets, Davis said.
Citing multiple unnamed USA and Yemeni military sources, The New York Times reported the bombing raids targeted al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula in three provinces: Abyan, Shabwa and Baydha.
It was not clear Thursday whether intelligence captured in the January 29 raid led to Thursday's airstrikes, or if this was the first operation against the terrorist group in Yemen since that operation. White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer responded to the request Monday, saying that the USA military would already be conducting three separate investigations into the incident, and defended the raid.
The coordinated series of attacks against al Qaeda militants occurred in three Yemeni provinces that have been areas of suspected terrorist activity - Abyan, Shabwa and Baydha - according to a senior US military official and a Yemeni military official. According to media reports, the operation's goal was to capture or kill the group's leader Qassim Rimi, who is considered the third most unsafe terrorist in the world and a master recruiter. Critics have questioned the raid's execution and value.
But the militant group has exploited a power vacuum created by two years of war between Yemen's Saudi-backed government and rebels who control the capital to consolidate its presence, particularly in the south and east.
The U.S government considers AQAP to be the most risky al-Qaeda branch because of its emphasis and reputation for plotting attacks on overseas targets.
The strikes are the first to target the terror group since a deadly January raid that left Chief Petty Officer Ryan Owens dead.
Trump, citing information from his defence secretary, told Congress on Tuesday that the raid yielded valuable intelligence that would "lead to many more victories in the future".

MONTANA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND CONSERVATION, AND MONTANA BOARD OF LAND COMMISSIONERS, PLAINTIFFS AND APPELLANTS,v.ABBCO INVESTMENTS, LLC, ET AL., DEFENDANTS AND APPELLEES,BOYD A. HARDY, SHIRLEY J. HARDY, HARD INVESTMENTS, L.P., NICKIE E. ROTH, COUNTER-CLAIMANTS AND APPELLEES,v.MONTANA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND CONSERVATION, AND MONTANA BOARD OF LAND COMMISSIONERS, COUNTER-DEFENDANTS AND APPELLANTS.
APPEAL FROM: District Court of the Seventh Judicial District, In and For the County of Richland, Cause No. DV 06-52 Honorable Katherine M. Bidegaray, Presiding Judge
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Beth Baker
Submitted on Briefs: June 27, 2012
Decided: August 28, 2012
Justice Beth Baker delivered the Opinion of the Court.
¶1 Appellants Montana Department of Natural Resources and Montana Board of Land Commissioners (collectively, "the State") appeal several portions of the Seventh Judicial District Court's summary judgment order in the State's quiet title action. We reverse and remand.
¶2 We address the following issues on appeal:
¶3 1. Whether the District Court erred by declaring that islands arising vertically from the bed of the Missouri River after statehood are not held by the State in trust for the financial benefit of the public schools.
¶4 2. Whether the District Court erred by refusing to declare a surveyed boundary between the islands and adjacent private lands based on the State's evidence.
¶5 3. Whether the District Court erred in requiring the State to pay damages for taxes paid and improvements made on the land under the theory of unjust enrichment.
¶6 4. Whether the District Court erred by denying costs to the State.
¶7 On July 12, 2006, the State filed an action in the Seventh Judicial District Court to quiet title to three islands in the Missouri River located in Sections 4, 5, and 8, Township 26 North, Range 59 East, MPM, Richland County, Montana. The State attached to its complaint a chronological series of surveys and aerial photographs demonstrating that the islands were formed from sedimentary accretions on the riverbed. The latest aerial photograph, taken in 2005, illustrated that the lands-described as Tracts 1, 2, and 3- were no longer surrounded by water but attached to shore land. The total property at issue was approximately 487 acres. The State averred that, because the islands emerged after statehood, its title to the land was superior to that of all the defendants named in the complaint.
¶8 In July 2007, the State filed a request to enter the land, pursuant to M. R. Civ. P. 34, for the purpose of surveying. Nearly a year later, the State filed an amended complaint identifying the precise geographical coordinates of the land it claimed should be declared State-owned land in the quiet title action.
¶9 Of the numerous defendants named in the complaint, most did not file an answer and many of the defendants who did respond ultimately settled with the State. Defendants Boyd Hardy, Shirley Hardy, Hardy Investments, L.P., and Nickie Roth, (collectively "Defendants") filed answers and counterclaimed that they owned portions of the land in fee simple and that the District Court should quiet title in their favor.
¶10 On September 11, 2009, the State filed a motion for summary judgment. It asserted that the lands at issue properly were characterized as vertical accretions to a navigable river and, as such, the property belonged to the State and was held in trust for common public schools. Defendants filed a response brief and cross-motion for summary judgment. Defendants did not dispute that the lands constituted accretions to the riverbed and ...

I should probably try to write every week. Right now this blog is always in a catch up mode. And if I write every week I won't second guess if my rantings are interesting, funny (or not), insightful, or just "stuff" that is going on and not worth the effort.
That will probably only last a week or two.
Soooo. The twins are doing well. Henry had hernia surgery last Wednesday. It went well, and he seems to feel much better. Grant is smiling and quite a cute cuddly boy. Katy had an assessment for William (19mos and not a single word), and it went well. He is a smart little boy, and has learned sign language for "more" and "cheese". He uses the "cheese" sign for any food, but the people who were observing him were even more impressed he could understand a general term like "more".
So, they weren't too worried that he doesn't speak yet. He does make sounds (cute coo noises when he holds his little brothers), and will most likely start talking when he wants too.
We had a weekend of shooting. I shot the local Homecoming Parade on Thursday. Friday and Saturday we had weddings, and late Sunday had a family/baby session. No day off this past weekend, and a full weekend coming up.
Katy called me Sunday evening and asked me when I had my next day off. I said it would probably be a week from Monday. She said I work too hard, and that I'm 'not 30 anymore'. (Yea, nice. Thanks for that). She is worried, and wanted to know if Bari knew how hard I work. Well of course he does. And yes it is hard, and yes I am tired and my feet hurt.(I'm not 30 anymore you know). But the whole purpose is to be able to quit my full time job and work from home. I would like to be home when my kids leave for school, and be here when they come home in the afternoon. That way it won't be so bad when I am away on a Saturday for a wedding, or a Wednesday night for a planning meeting. Now it just seems like I am gone all the time. (And my feet hurt all the time).

Independent Corrupt Practices Commission in Nigeria
The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) is the apex body saddled by law with the responsibility to fight corruption and other related offences in Nigeria. It was set up and empowered by the Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Act 2000.ICPC was inaugurated on the 29th of September 2000 with a Chairman and 12 Members. Section 3(14) of the Act ensures the independence of the Commission as not being subject to the direction or control of any person or authority.
Nigeria has been stigmatized by the international community as the second most corrupt country in the world. For three consecutive-years, 2000. 2001 and 2002, it has maintained that unenviable position. The rating came up as a consequence of several failed attempts in the past to wipe out corruption or reduce it to a tolerable level in the polity. From the Jaji Declaration in 1977 by Olusegun Obasanjo; the Ethical Revolution of Shagari in 1981 - 1983; War Against Indiscipline by Buhari in 1984; National Orientation Movement by Babangida in 1986; Mass Mobilization for Social Justice by Babangida in 1987; War Against Indiscipline and Corruption in 1996 by Abacha; to the Anti- Corruption Act 2000 again by President Olusegun Obasanjo, this is the first time in the series of several efforts to fight corruption that the attempt has the force of law with severe sanctions.
To prohibit and prescribe punishment for corrupt practices and other related offences.
To rid Nigeria of all forms of corrupt practices and other related offences.
To restore Nigeria to the enviable standard of respectability and dignity within the comity of Nations.
Section 6 of the Act confers 3 main responsibilities on the ICPC. They are:
To receive and investigate reports of the conspiracy to commit, attempt to commit or actual commission of offences as created by the...

Dominican Rita Indiana gets Grand Prize for literature
|The writer, also songwriter and singer, is one of the most recognized literary Dominicans now. | Photo: EFE
The Dominican Rita Indiana won the Grand Prize for literature, awarded by the Association of writers of the Caribbean for his novel "The maid of Omicunle", the first work in English to be recognized with this award.
Thus the peripheral Publisher, who discovered in Spain to Indiana reported it Tuesday. In a statement, it was reported that writer got the prestigious award for "The maid of Omicunle", a novel filled with dissonances, in addition to a magnificent narrative proposed that condenses an authentic Caribbean.
> China pays tribute to Gabriel García Márquez according to the jury, the work "moves through a number of discursive layers: religious syncretism, indoctrination, drug trafficking, political corruption, gender mainstreaming, the Caribbean environmental degradation, pain and escapism", elements that "merge into a story that mixes the colloquial with the fused rhythm from the music and art".
The jury was composed of Andrés Bansart (Venezuela), Earl Lovelace (Trinidad and Tobago), Camila Valdés (Cuba), Patricia Donatien (Martinique), Lyonel Trouillot (Haiti) and Funso Aiyejina (Nigeria).
Very grateful and excited https://t.co/I9N6yfFFZV – Rita Indiana (@ritaindiana) April 10, 2017 novel disputed recognition with around 20 works written in Spanish of authors like the Cuban Leonardo Padura or the Puerto Rican Mayra Santos Febres, among others.
Indiana is a key figure of the current Caribbean literature, as well as songwriter and singer. She is the author of storybooks as "Ruminant" (1998) and "Science suction" (2002), and novels such as "Daddy" or "Chochueca strategy".


text: Bought a 60's reissue Jazz used. Nice Mexi bass. Very nice neck, very nice finish, nice pickguard, and very noisy when the tone pot is all the way up at idle. For reference, I also have a 99 MIA Jazz, clear ash that is the standard by which I judge all others. This one will probably never leave the stable. When comparing the two basses, the MIA is extremely quiet regardless of where the tone pot is set. The Mexi is loud requiring your fingers be on the strings to keep the noise down. So, as any good bass player should do, I start by replacing the pickups on the Mexi with pickups out of a 97 model MIA jazz to try and acheive that same quiet. The noise is still there. Perhaps somewhat more quiet, but possibly because I think it should be more quiet because I spent money for pickups. Nonetheless, it does not approach the MIA as far as being quiet at idle. Anyone have experience with replacing tone pots? Looked in the archives and see volumes of data on pickups, but very little on the controls on the plate. Or other areas I should be considering? Wiring, grounding, voodoo spells perhaps? I really like the sound I get out of my MIA Jazz and am not looking for a different sound, just trying to replicate the quiet at idle sound in the Mexi. Any thoughts appreciated!

It's not exactly a new thing – a big broadcaster will buy a popular U.S. series not to show it, but to keep it out of the hands of its competitors. This linked article suggests that one of Canada's big broadcasters – in this case, Bell – is acquiring online rights to hit American shows, only to prevent Canadians from seeing them on the web.
The idea seems to be to keep highly regarded shows like "The Americans" or "Game of Thrones" off the Internet here to force would-be viewers to subscribe to their Fibe or satellite services, so they can stop cord cutting.
Buying up rights to shelve shows is nothing new, of course. In the mid-80s, what was then called "CityPulse" aired on City TV, but never even made a dent up against CFTO's 6 PM news, which was always number one. CityPulse only ever wound up in first place once, and it was common knowledge that it was the lead-in provided by the 5 o'clock show that preceded it. Its name? The Price Is Right. Yep, the ancient game show had legs and took City to the top of the news pile with it.
So what happened? When the time came for the contract to be renewed, a competitor (if memory serves, it may have been Global) swooped in, outbid CHUM for the rights, and watched as City sunk back in the pack when it stopped airing "Price" in its old slot. But the network that acquired the veteran program never showed it anywhere, keeping it off the air in Canada, in order to hurt its rival.
This current situation is a bit different, even if the philosophy is the same.
"That's frustrating cord-cutters and leading some consumer advocates to say the time has come for policymakers to enact use-it-or-lose-it rules on streaming rights.
"There should be no situations where there is content out there that's available for people around the world to watch but, because a Canadian broadcaster doesn't want to release it, Canadians aren't able to see it," says Meghan Sali, of internet advocacy group Open Media. "It's what Canadians expect."

The Corporation may also have offices at such other places within or without this state as the board may from time to time determine or the business of the Corporation may require.
The purposes for which this Corporation has been organized are:
Nothing herein shall authorize the Corporation to open or maintain a nursery school, elementary school or secondary school, and nothing herein shall authorize the Corporation to operate or maintain an institution of higher learning or to grant degrees.
In furtherance of its corporate purposes, the Corporation shall have all the general powers enumerated in Section 202 of the Not-For-Profit Corporation Law, together with the power to solicit grants and contributions for the corporate purposes.
Nothing herein shall authorize this Corporation, directly or indirectly, to engage in or include among its purposes any of activities mentioned in the Not-For-Profit Corporation Law, Section 404(b)-(v).
Members who joined the society before Feb. 11, 2000, no matter their professional backgrounds, will retain full membership.
The determination of membership status will be made by the Director of Membership in consultation with the Executive Committee.
Members, including Officers, are expected to adhere to the society's code of conduct and to act in a professional and appropriate manner at any event sponsored by the society or at which society business is being conducted or may be affected. Professional and appropriate behavior is also expected in all corporate-sponsored communication, including but not limited to the society's Internet discussion board.
The annual membership meeting of the Corporation shall be held during the annual membership conference. The Corporation shall notify the membership of the time and place of the annual meeting. The Corporation reserves the right to deny conference registration or admission to any person deemed by a majority vote of the Executive Committee to be potentially disruptive to the conference.
Special meetings of the Corporation may be called by the Executive Committee. The Secretary shall notify the membership of such a meeting at least 10 days prior to the meeting. Such notice shall state the date, time, place and purpose of the meeting and by whom called. No other business but that specified in the notice may be transacted at such special meeting without the unanimous consent of all present at such meeting.
For the purpose of determining the members entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of members or any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to or dissent from any proposal without a meeting, or for the purpose of determining the members entitled to receive any distribution or allotment of any rights, or for the purpose of any other action, the board shall fix, in advance, a date as the record date for any such determination of members. Such date shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before any such meeting, nor more than 60 days prior to any other action.
Whenever members of the society are required or permitted to take any action by vote, such action may be taken without a meeting by written consent, setting forth the action so taken, signed by all the members entitled to vote thereon.
Every member entitled to vote at a meeting of members or to express consent or dissent without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for him by proxy. Every proxy must be signed by the member. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of 11 months from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy. Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the member executing it, except as otherwise provided by law.
The order of business of any meeting of the membership or Executive Committee shall be determined by the President with the input of the Executive Committee.
Membership dues are payable annually. Dues are for the calendar year or portion thereof and may not be prorated.
The amount and structure of dues may be altered by majority vote of the Executive Committee.
Written communication shall include e-mail messages.
Membership may be revoked for cause by a majority vote of the Executive Committee. Cause includes but is not limited to a willful violation of the code of conduct; failure to pay membership dues in a timely fashion; conviction of a felony; or any action deemed by the Executive Committee to be harmful to the society.
The Corporation shall be managed by the Executive Committee, which shall consist of no fewer than 15 members. Each member shall be at least 19 years of age.
Each year, the membership shall elect committee members and Officers for open seats. Each member shall hold office until the expiration of the term for which he or she was elected and until a successor has been elected and shall have qualified, or until his or her prior resignation or removal. All Executive Committee members and Officers shall serve terms of two years, with the exception of the seat held by the president of the Education Fund as noted in Article IV, Section 16. Election results will be announced to the membership during the conference.
Because various factors may cause the staggering of the terms of office of Executive Committee members to become unbalanced, the committee is empowered, on an extraordinary basis and by majority vote, to change the terms to which one or more committee members are elected from two years to three years or one year, provided that the membership is properly notified of the change in advance of the affected election, in accordance with the provisions of Article VI.
In the event of a tie vote for any officer's post or seat on the Executive Committee, the current Executive Committee, with a quorum required, shall vote to break such a tie or ties, or shall determine another process by which to fill the seat(s) in question.
The immediate past President shall have an automatic term unless that person has resigned or been removed from office. All other voting positions on the Executive Committee, including those of Officers, shall be elected positions (except as noted in these bylaws with regard to death, disability, resignation or removal) with the exception of the position held by the president of the Education Fund, as noted below.
The process is overseen by the Corporation's Secretary, who has the right to appoint an election chairman.
SCHEDULE: Before nominations are solicited, Executive Committee members will notify the President of whether they intend to run again. Nominations by members in good standing (i.e., qualifying applicants with dues paid) shall be made by Jan. 15 of each year. The biographies and statements of eligible nominees shall be made available to the membership by Feb. 15 of each year. Members in good standing as of Feb. 1 are eligible to vote in that year's election. Electronic voting will be open from Feb. 15 to March 1. Board terms begin and end at the close of the Corporation's annual conference.
Those full members of the Corporation in good standing (i.e., meeting membership qualifications and being active, dues-paying members) will be eligible for nomination to the Executive Committee. Written consent of nomination is required of all potential candidates. There are no other eligibility requirements. There shall be no term limits for any member of the Executive Committee other than those outlined as eligibility requirements for candidates.
The number of Executive Committee members may be increased of decreased by a vote of the membership or by a vote of a majority of all of the Executive Committee members. No decrease in number of Executive Committee members shall shorten the term of any incumbent committee member.
Newly created memberships resulting from an increase in the number of committee members and vacancies occurring on the committee, in the event of death, resignation or removal, may be filled by a vote of a majority of the committee members then in office. A committee member elected to fill a vacancy caused by resignation, death or removal shall be elected to hold that seat for the unexpired term of his predecessor.
There shall be one type of exception to the above rule: All persons elected during a general election by the society shall be elected to two-year terms, unless the Executive Committee has approved an extraordinary change in such terms in accordance with the provisions of Article IV, Section 2, Paragraph 3.
A committee member elected to fill a vacancy caused by resignation, death or removal shall hold that seat for the unexpired term of his or her predecessor. Such vacancies will be offered in order to unsuccessful candidates for the committee in the previous election, following affirmation by the executive committee.
Any or all of the Executive Committee members, including its Officers, may be removed for cause by action of the committee. Removal may be accomplished by a vote of a two-thirds majority of the committee members then in office, excluding the committee member in question. Cause includes but is not limited to a willful violation of the code of conduct; neglect of duties; mishandling of finances; misrepresentation of the society for personal gain; conviction of a felony; and failure to remain a member in good standing as previously defined in these bylaws.
An executive committee member who has missed four consecutive meetings shall be contacted by the secretary and asked to attend the next meeting or else be considered as having resigned from the committee under Article IV, Section 8, unless the president and secretary are notified why attendance is impossible and such reasons are then reported to and accepted by the officers of the Corporation.
An Executive Committee member may resign at any time by giving written notice to the committee, the President or the Secretary of the Corporation. Unless otherwise specified in the notice, the resignation shall take effect upon receipt thereof by the committee or such Officer, and the acceptance of the resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.
Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of in Corporation, a simple majority of the entire committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business or of any specified item of business.
Unless otherwise adopted by law, the vote of a majority of the committee members present at the time of the vote, if a quorum is present at such time, shall be the act of the committee. Some actions of the board may be approved by consent without a vote. Each committee member present shall have one vote.
The committee may hold its meetings at the office of the Corporation or at such other places, either within or without the state, as it may from time to time determine. The committee shall have at least one meeting with a quorum present every quarter, either by conference call or in person, on a date and time to be determined at the discretion of the President and Secretary. Such conference call meetings as required will be organized by the Secretary.
A regular annual meeting of the committee shall be held during the annual conference.
Regular meetings of the committee may be held without notice at such time and place as it shall from time to time determine. Special meetings of the committee shall be held upon notice to the committee members and may be called by the President upon three days' notice to each committee member either personally or by mail or by phone. Special meetings shall be called by the President or by the Secretary in a like manner on written request of five committee members. Notice of a meeting need not be given to any committee member who submits a waiver of notice whether before or after the meeting or who attends the meeting without protesting prior thereto or at its commencement the lack of notice to him.
A majority of the committee members present, whether or not a quorum is present, may adjourn any meeting to another time and place. Notice of the adjournment shall be given all committee members who were absent at the time of the adjournment and, unless such time and place are announced at the meeting, to the other committee members.
At all meetings of the Executive Committee, the President, or in his absence another Officer, shall preside.
The President of the Corporation, with guidance from the Executive Committee, may designate from among its members or the membership other committees and chairmen for such committees. Each such committee shall serve at the pleasure of the Executive Committee.
The president of the American Copy Editors Society Education Fund shall be a full and voting member of the Executive Committee. Certain expenses, such as for attendance at midterm and conference meetings, may be reimbursed for this position as an ex-officio member under the same rules as apply at that time to other Executive Committee members, except that such reimbursement will be issued by the Education Fund and not by the Corporation unless otherwise jointly agreed to.
There will be among the members of the Executive Committee four Officers — specifically, a President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer — elected by the membership and designated in the election as such. Such Officers shall be elected as outlined under Article IV, Section 2, and each shall be elected to a term of two years, unless the Executive Committee has approved an extraordinary change in such terms in accordance with the provisions of Article IV, Section 2, Each Officer shall hold office until the expiration of the term for which he or she was elected and until his or her successor has been elected and shall have qualified, or until his or her prior resignation or removal. In the event of a tie vote for any officer's post, the Executive Committee shall break the tie, as outlined in Article IV, Section 2. There shall be no term limits for any Officer other than those outlined as eligibility requirements for candidates.
In addition to those requirements outlined in Article IV, Section 3, candidates for office on the Executive Committee must have shown a commitment to the Corporation through experience as a committee chairman or active committee member, or through work on a significant project or workshop of the Corporation. Written consent of nomination is required of all potential candidates.
Any or all of the Corporation's Officers may be removed as outlined in Article IV, Section 7. An Officer may resign at any time by giving written notice to the committee, the President or the Secretary of the Corporation. If he is acting as President of the Corporation, written notice must be given to the committee or the Secretary. If he is acting as Secretary of the Corporation, written notice must be given to the committee or the President. Unless otherwise specified in the notice, the resignation shall take effect upon receipt thereof by the committee or such Officer, and the acceptance of the resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. In the event of death, resignation or removal of an Officer, the committee in its discretion may elect or appoint a successor to fill the unexpired term. The salaries of all Officers shall be fixed by the Executive Committee.
In case the Executive Committee shall so require, any Officer or agent of the Corporation shall execute to the Corporation a bond in such sum and with such surety or sureties as the Executive Committee may direct conditioned upon the faithful performance of his duties to the Corporation and including responsibility for negligence and for the accounting for all property, funds or securities of the Corporation which may come into his hands.
Contracts entered into by the Corporation must be signed by either the President and the Treasurer, or the President and the Vice President. If the President is absent and time is of the essence, the Vice President may sign in his or her place, with a countersign by the Treasurer.
The bylaws may be adopted, amended or repealed by the membership at the time the membership is entitled to vote in the election of Executive Committee members if a written request of such a change to the bylaws is submitted to the Executive Committee no later than three months prior to the date of the annual election and only if no less than 10 percent of the current membership signs a petition in support of putting such a change to a vote of the entire membership. Bylaws may also be adopted, amended or repealed by a majority of the entire Executive Committee without the consent or approval of the membership. However, written notice of such changes to the Corporation's bylaws must be given to the membership in a timely manner.
If any bylaw regulating an impending election of Executive Committee members is adopted, amended or repealed by the Executive Committee, there shall be set forth in the notice of the next meeting of the membership for the election of the Executive Committee the bylaw so adopted, amended or repealed, together with a concise statement of the changes made.
Drafted by William G. Connolly, Merrill Perlman and Rudy Bahr; passed by unanimous vote of the Executive Committee on January 12, 2011.
This policy applies to all volunteers, members, contractors and employees of the American Copy Editors Society ("ACES") and the ACES Education Fund. Collectively, they are described hereafter as "affiliates."
Affiliates are expected to strive for fairness, honesty and accuracy in all their work, avoiding plagiarism and fabrication. They are expected to obey the law, conform to the highest ethical and professional standards and treat one another professionally, openly, fairly and respectfully. They are expected to avoid harassment — any conduct likely to cause offense to a reasonable person.
Any conduct that violates this code, that is likely to bring discredit to ACES or the Education Fund or that interferes with the orderly conduct of either group's business will be considered a serious offense and may lead to the cancellation of membership or of any other relationship with the society or the fund.
Affiliates may not misrepresent the society, the fund or either group's positions or policies. They may not engage in political or social activities in such a way as to imply the endorsement of the society or the fund unless the Executive Committee or the Education Fund board has specifically taken a position on a public question with a direct impact on editors or editing.
Affiliates may not offer endorsements or testimonials for books, programs, products or other endeavors that imply the approval of ACES or the Education Fund. They may not use either group's logo, newsletter, website or mailing lists without authorization.
In general, only the presidents of ACES and the Education Fund are authorized to speak publicly on either organization's behalf. Therefore, unless they are authorized to do so, affiliates may not post in the name of the society or the fund on blogs, Facebook, Twitter or other social networking platforms.
Affiliates may not mount large-scale solicitations on behalf of other groups or causes among ACES or Education Fund members.
Affiliates who deal with (or might deal with) prospective donors, vendors or sponsors may not accept personal gifts, favors or special treatment of any kind from such prospects.
Affiliates should be aware that the appearance of a conflict of interest can be as damaging as an actual conflict. Members of the ACES Executive Committee and the Education Fund board should be sensitive to the fact that the civic and professional activities of spouses or other relatives may create such an appearance.
Affiliates must ensure that the ACES Executive Committee or the Education Fund board is informed in writing of any personal, financial, family or professional relationship that could create a conflict of interest or the appearance of conflict. Information contained in such disclosures will be held in confidence unless, in the view of the Executive Committee or the board, the interests of the society or the fund require wider disclosure.
An affiliate who has a conflict of interest must refrain from any debate about or vote on the matter in question unless the Executive Committee or Education Fund board has specifically waived this restriction.
The ACES Executive Committee will be solely responsible for interpreting and applying this code. Those who are unsure about potential conflicts should seek guidance from the Executive Committee or the Education Fund board.
Each year, members of the Executive Committee and the Education Fund board must attest in writing that they have read, understand and are in compliance with this code.
Members of the Executive Committee, the Education Fund board and any subcommittee appointed by either body may not use for personal gain information obtained in that capacity.
Members of the Executive Committee and the Education Fund board are expected to maintain confidentiality with respect to personnel matters.
This policy states the American Copy Editors Society's position on discrimination. This policy applies to dealings with all ACES employees, volunteers, members, clients and contractors.
ACES follows an equal opportunity employment policy and employs personnel without regard to race, creed, color, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender expression, age, physical or mental ability, veteran status, military obligations, and marital status.
This policy also applies to internal promotions, training, opportunities for advancement, terminations, outside vendors, members and customers, service clients, use of contractors and consultants, and dealings with the general public.
A full refund of the registration fee will be refunded if received no later than 30 days before the first day of the conference. A refund request must be received by email.
Refunds will be made to the credit card on which the registration was made. If this is not possible, a refund will be made by check. Full refunds are made for some circumstances so the reason for the refund should be specific.
If the cancellation request is received less than 30 days before the start of the conference, the registration fee can be applied to the next year's conference. It can be used only at that conference after which it expires. Additionally, another person can be substituted for the registration if received no later than 10 days of the national conference.
A full refund of the registration fee will be given if received no later than 7 days before the first day of the boot camp. A refund request must be received by email.
Refunds will be made to the credit card on which the registration was made. If this is not possible, a refund will be made by check. Full refunds are made for some circumstances so the request for a refund should be specific.

During the 6 – 7 years that a young man spends in seminary he will come across a wide variety of other young, and not so young, men and each of them comes from vastly different backgrounds. In my 6 years of seminary I journeyed towards priesthood and the same was true for me. Those I met on the same path as myself had sometimes come to seminary directly from High School, but there were also many who had taken a longer road, a detour you might call it. Some were teachers, one was a law graduate, one was a St, John of God brother, one was a psychologist, one had spent time living in a hippy commune, three were chefs, there were a couple of accountants, one was a scientist, one was a meteorologist, one was a doctor, and one was a former U.S. Marine – you didn't mess with him. All called in their own particular way to serve the Lord in the Holy Priesthood; all bringing with them vastly different life experiences, and the many gifts and talents the Lord had endowed them with.
And all that goes to prove that God chooses his priests from among the men of the world. God doesn't magically snap his fingers and hey presto – he creates a priest. No he calls those men aside and offers them the gift of priesthood. For some that call came at a time when it was inconvenient – they were doing well in their chosen path, for others the call to priesthood had always been a niggling feeling, an itch they didn't want to scratch, but somewhere, somehow the Lord's invitation became irresistible to them. Sometimes that invitation came in unexpected ways.
A major pastoral priority for us priests has to be the planting of seeds for vocations. We can't have a pastoral plan that works if we don't have enough pastors, enough priests to provide the sacraments which are the life blood of the Church. But I, as a priest, can't turn every conversation I have with a young man into a recruitment drive. That's where the lay faithful play such a pivotal role. They must encourage young men to consider the call to the priesthood. The majority of the seeds they sow will never sprout, but every now and then the Lord might use them, and somewhere in their throw away remark a young man might discern the voice of Christ. If you think some man you know might have a vocation – pray about it, pray for him and maybe the Lord will direct you to speak and encourage him.
To any young man reading this I say – why not you? Are you any more sinful than was St. Augustine with his mistress? Are you any less intelligent than was St. John Vianney who barely passed any exam in seminary? Are you any more uncertain about the strength of your faith commitment than was St. Peter who denied the Lord, though he had spent three whole years in his company. Yet all these became great priests and the Lord used them to bring about the salvation of many many souls. Every priest I know, myself included, can find a hundred reasons why we are not the right person for the job, but despite all our many shortcomings, the overriding reason we respond and continue to respond is that Christ has called us to it – not because we are perfect, but because the priesthood is our road towards perfection, our road, please God, to heaven.

Quick Link That is Awesome
Posted by DrFunke on June 11, 2009
This article comes from Cracked.com, and I'm posting this because quite frankly it gave me about 15 minutes of wildly uncontrollable laugh attacks in the middle of my office. Needless to say, my bosses all think I'm high or crazy, and I need to share that article with someone. Basically it's part 2 of why my day is awesome, part 1 being that I had a run in with Steve Nash while I was on my lunch break. He is surprisingly tall, and apparently there aren't any physical features or pieces of flair that Canadians have that indicate they are in fact Canadian, and therefore dangerous. Bonus points, I might get to talk with Dennis Quaid on the phone at some point. Today would be amazing if I wasn't so hung over.

Fort Frances is not out of the woods just yet with frozen water pipes and water main breaks.
Operations and Facilities manager Doug Brown says there's still more than a dozen homeowners whose lines are still frozen and requests to trickle the water will continue with deep frost still in the ground.
Brown says a dig to fix a broken water pipe near LaVerendrye Hospital yesterday revealed three feet of frost.

Ask a Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
I find some directors still remaining as director while the company is in liquidation. How is that possible?
Also some companies that are in liquidation seem to be healthy companies meaning the assets are higher than the debts. Why these companies are taken over by the liquidators or why the directors entered into voluntary insolvency? are these directors risky?
They may be risky but that is for Companies House to disqualify them.
Does that clarify?
Yes thank you

(Despite a glamorous debut, Aaron Judge struggled mightily in his first major league stint late last season, one that ended prematurely thanks to injury. Can he carry his 2016 Triple-A dominance to the Bronx in 2017? Jason Farmer/Times-Tribune Photographer)
There's only two remaining. Our countdown of the Top 15 prospects who could help the Yankees this season continues with a guy who briefly helped them last season. Here's No. 2, Aaron Judge.
The Basics
Position: Outfielder
Bats-Throws: Right-Right
Height: 6-foot-7
Weight: 275 pounds
Age: 24
40-man roster: Yes
Last Season
Judge entered 2016 looking to put the Triple-A struggles that plagued him in 2015 behind. For a while, it looked as if he couldn't. Through 50 games, Judge essentially hit rock bottom. He was hitting just .221 with seven home runs, 25 RBIs, nine doubles and a whopping 58 strikeouts. Fans began to worry but Judge kept his composure. Then, it clicked.
Judge owned the month of June, hitting .343 with nine homers, 25 RBIs, 30 runs, 16 extra-base hits and slash lines of .477/.686/1.163. He showed much better plate discipline, as well, drawing 21 walks. That performance earned him the International League's Player of the Month and he was elected to play in the Triple-A All-Star Game and participate in the Home Run Derby.
Unfortunately for Judge, he didn't partake, as a mild PCL sprain and a bone bruise suffered just days before the all-star break sidelined him for about three and a half weeks. When he returned Aug. 2, Judge picked up right where he left off. He batted .353 in his next 10 games with three home runs and 11 RBIs, including a grand slam off Reynaldo Lopez, who was one of Washington's top pitching prospects at the time, in what proved to be Judge's PNC Field finale.
Judge's final game in a RailRiders uniform came at Rochester on Aug. 12, which included a two-run homer in his last at-bat. The next afternoon, Judge was in Yankee Stadium for his major league debut and what a debut it was. Right after Tyler Austin homered in his first career at-bat, Judge did the same with a tape-measure shot to straightaway center field. In doing so, they became the first teammates in MLB history to homer in their first at-bats in the same game.
That debut, however, did not foreshadow success to come for Judge. Simply put, Judge struggled mightily over 27 games, hitting .179 with four homers, 10 RBIs and 42 (!) strikeouts in 84 at-bats before a strained right oblique ended his season Sept. 14.
Scouting Report
The obvious feature that strikes you about Judge's game is his power. First of all, trust me when I tell you this. Judge is all of his 6-foot-7, 275-pound billing. Many players' height and weight tend to not be accurate on rosters sheets and media guides. Judge is one of those exceptions.
The combination of size and strength allow him to generate that impressive raw power. But his long arms allow for some holes in his swing, which pitchers at the upper levels exposed. Judge can work counts and drive the ball all over the field but the big flaw is his strikeout rate. There's no way around it. Judge is going to strike out and he's probably going to strike out a lot. It's whether he can keep that number down enough so that he can still be a productive hitter.
While most of the attention is on Judge's bat, his defense and ability to run the bases are very underrated. Judge has a strong arm and he has shown the ability to throw runners out, as you'll see in a video below. His long strides allow him to cover a great amount of ground to make plays that not too many outfielders can make. Those strides also make him a threat on the base paths. He doesn't have blazing speed but he's no slouch. And he's a smart base runner who isn't going to run his team out of innings.
As has been the case with several prospects, we'll start you off with a profile on Judge from the Yankees. Highlights and analysis from the likes of RailRiders manager Al Pedrique and former hitting coach Tom Wilson.
Last spring, Judge waited on a breaking ball and blasted an opposite-field three-run homer against the Red Sox.
In this year's spring training opener, Judge absolutely destroyed a fastball off the scoreboard in left-center field.
That home run was hit in an eerily similar spot to his grand slam off Lopez at PNC Field last summer.
Though it sometimes seems like the only thing Judge can do is hit mammoth home runs, he's proven to be a very reliable defender. Here he last year firing to the plate and to complete a double play to end the inning.
2017 Outlook
As recently as Wednesday, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said that Judge potentially could begin the season back with the RailRiders, citing the need for everyday playing time. It seemed unimaginable given the spring Judge has had. On Thursday, though, Girardi eased the stress on what seemed like every Yankees fan when he named Judge the team's Opening Day right fielder.
Let's face it, Judge earned that right. In 24 Grapefruit League games entering Friday night's exhibition at Atlanta's brand new SunTrust Park, Judge hit .344 (21 for 61) with three home runs, seven RBIs and a .960 OPS and only struck out 13 times.
Just because Judge enters the regular season certainly doesn't mean it's his for the whole season. Judge has to perform well in order to keep his job. Yes, that's an obvious statement regarding any job in this world. But in Judge's case, there is a ton of outfield talent rising through the organization. Guys like Clint Frazier and Dustin Fowler and Billy McKinney all are waiting in the wings. Not to mention, Aaron Hicks is currently the Yankees' fourth outfielder and I'm sure they would not have an issue inserting him into the lineup. And keep in mind that Judge still has options to the minors remaining. Strong performances by either of them combined with struggles from Judge could put him on the hot seat.

Even after consistent user complaints about a function of Microsoft's GWX app, a association is still determined on forcing Windows 7 and 8.1 users to implement Windows 10 – no matter what a cost. In a new such attempt, Redmond has introduced new changes that will make it some-more formidable to equivocate Windows 10 forced updates on your computer.
Nonstop stories of Windows 10 forced upgrades
We recently posted about a scathing user report where Microsoft had altered a function of a X (close button) on a Get Windows 10 app. Instead of shutting a process, a app started holding a NO as a YES and started downloading and installing Windows 10 though any serve interaction. After a inundate of criticism, Microsoft reviewed a newly altered function and introduced a second popup that would concede a user to endorse or check a designation process.
Turns out, that was usually a proxy complacency that Windows 7 and 8 users shared, since a association is again in a news, irritating users. Microsoft is creation it intensely formidable to equivocate involuntary Windows 10 updates now, and is stealing a choice to cancel a refurbish altogether. A news claims that there is no cancel choice in a refurbish dialog box anymore, as a user is presented with choices to possibly ascent now or select a ascent time. As we can see in a screenshot below, there is no X button, and usually dual options. Reports explain that users also aren't means to re-schedule a comparison ascent time once they have comparison a date and time to upgrade on this dialog box.
Speed Up Windows 10 and Fix Slow Boot-Up Issues – Windows 10 Tips
No cancel, no rescheduling – Microsoft has taken it a step serve to force Windows 7/8 users into upgrading to a latest handling system. Many of a readers have commented that users should usually simply make a upgrade. But, if a association unequivocally hates Windows 7 and 8.1 so much, it should usually stop ancillary it. Microsoft has betrothed to support Windows 7 until 2020, and users should be let alone to use their favorite handling complement until then. As a news from PCWorld recently shared that to equivocate Windows 10 upgrades, users are disabling vicious confidence updates on their Windows 7 machines, that is not usually counterproductive though also puts Microsoft's users during risk.
Windows 10 gifted its largest expansion spurt in a month of May after Aug 2015, a new research had revealed. To grasp a idea of reaching a billion Windows 10 installations, it seems expected that we will keep saying melancholy strategies, creation users to ascent to Windows 10, either they wish it or not.

Distractions, don't let them get in your way
Simple counsel that's familiar to many of us. In this week's quick update from TMFKATB, those words of wisdom were the keynote of his letter. It seems like he'd had another busy week and he saw the rewards of staying focused on objectives. He shared a quick story of how they were determined to get a family to church for the first time so, determined to meet that goal, they spend an hour and half at the family's house on Sunday morning waking them up and getting them to church. I'm sure that was quite an alarm clock. I'm hoping he didn't employ any of the more severe tactics we had to use to rouse him from his teen-age slumber. That was never pretty for any involved.
I'm loving the growth he's experienced in these nearly two years. I'm excited to see where it will take him and how he'll handle it all. Heaven knows he will be drowning in distractions once he returns. Aren't we all anymore? Not letting them get in our way, man, that's a little easier said than done, isn't it?
There were a couple of pictures this week but Blogger's ability to load photos is not working. I'll upload once it's restored.

The State of Israel, the country that represents Jews throughout the world as much as its citizens, is slowly but surely abdicating its role by its action or perhaps better said inaction vis-a-vis public diplomacy. What has happened to the leadership of the past, men and women who were not afraid to state their minds and fight for what has always been rightfully ours? We are no longer respected and are at the mercy of a leftist faction and media who will stop at nothing to help in our destruction. – Naomi Romm, in a Facebook response to my previous column, "Dereliction of Duty" Israel cannot expect the world to be concerned if Israel does not regard itself, its existence and its rights with urgency and determination. This is the true and profound reason that the Israeli message about Iran did not touch the hearts of the world's leaders, and the guilty party is we ourselves, the collective Israeli, we, the Right and the Left together, each one because of its acts of commission and its acts of omission. – Dr. Mordechai Kedar, "Survival Skills for Israel – 101," 2013

HYDERABAD, India, May 6 (Reuters) – Nepal is seeking $1.2 billion for reconstruction and rehabilitation and has appealed to the international community for help, a senior finance ministry official said on Saturday.
The Himalayan kingdom is one of the poorest countries in the world and has just returned to democracy after mass protests last month forced King Gyanendra to give up absolute power and reinstate parliament four years after he dissolved it.
Nepal has faced a decade-long insurgency by Maoist rebels, which has killed thousands, but the rebels say they will join talks with the new multi-party government to try to end the uprising.
"Our preliminary estimates show that we will need about $1.2 billion for post-conflict reconstruction," Rameshore Prasad Khanal, joint secretary in the finance ministry, told Reuters in an interview.
"We are appealing to everybody," said Khanal, who is representing Nepal at the 39th annual meeting of the Asian Development Bank in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad.
Nepal has per capita annual income of just above $250 and up to 80 percent of its 26 million people depend on farming. It also exports textiles, handicrafts, vegetable oil and carpets.
Remittances from overseas Nepalis bring in about $1.3 billion annually.
Tourism and aid are two other principal sources of foreign exchange, but some donors slowed lending when the king cracked down on a campaign to restore democracy. Tourist arrivals have also fallen because of the unrest.
Khanal said the immediate priority was to improve rural infrastructure and undertake rehabilitation of people affected by the conflict.
He said the government would soon launch a campaign to woo back tourists.
"The Tourism Board will launch the campaign soon in China and India and later in other countries."
Tourism accounted for about 4 percent of the country's $6.3 billion gross domestic product in 2004.
Khanal said the government was also working on a strategy to boost hydro-electricity production to end chronic power shortages and wanted private sector firms from other countries to join in projects with the government.
He said the economy had the resilience to bounce back.
"(In) 1990 we grew close to 5.0 percent but in 2001 growth declined to 2.0 percent. Once the conflict is resolved we can clearly go up to 6.0 percent and maybe 7.0-8.0 percent later."
