Nobody talks to me anymore…
Really, no one says hi, no one asks me questions. It's as if they're avoiding me and that could be. After all, since it looks like I've been demoted, no one wants to catch that bug.
The funny thing, I ended up giving two informal sales presentations on the company to prospective clients today – not that management would really want to know that.

Bobs Worth has only tasted defeat once under Rules and that was in a bumper at this track on his racecourse debut. He was well ahead of Teaforthree when winning the Grade 1 Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at The Festival in March, just a day after GRANDS CRUS finished second in the World Hurdle, and beat the smart Cue Card on his first start over the larger obstacles at Newbury but David Pipe's grey may have his measure here. The latter only had to be pushed out to beat the well-regarded Sonofvic at Newbury last time having impressed at Cheltenham earlier and may have too much speed for the Henderson gelding. Silviniaco Conti tries a new trip and looks held by the principals on a line through Cue Card, while Mr Moonshine doesn't look good enough in this grade and the mare Emmaslegend may also be found wanting.

SHELBY, N.C. - The mother and child from Friday's AMBER Alert out of Fitchburg, Mass. were found safe in Shelby, N.C., according to Massachusetts state police.
Police in Massachusetts were searching for the 6-year-old girl who they said was taken by her biological mother.
An Amber Alert was issued for Alize Whipple, who was last seen Wednesday in Fitchburg, Mass., getting on the school bus to go home.
At the time of the alert, police said they believed that Alize was with her mother Leeanna Wilson, 50, who does not have custody of the little girl.

I have no words to describe the feeling shooting with this camera gives me, technically it is top rate, the lens is extremely sharp, the design is pure art and it just feels great in my hands.

Now operating out of an expansive modern-day facility, owner Bernie Polen stays true to the principles of quality that made Alexander & Hornung what they are today. "We still make things the way they've always been made," says Bernie, who is third-generation in the family business. His son Andy having joined as the fourth.
Polen still uses recipes that his great-uncle Willie brought with him from Bavaria and their Spiral Sliced Ham is a true fan favourite. "My customers always tell me it's the best ham they've ever tasted," says Bernie. We think you and your family will agree.

So, what do a bunch of medical professionals do for fun during their down time in Haiti? They break out the Vaseline and other concoctions to mix up batches and batches of scabies medicine, chuckling as the non-medical staff turns green just looking at the homemade goop, envisioning what needs to be done with it in the coming days.
(seated) Sienna; clockwise from left: Sherye, Dr. Bheki, Wes,
Susan and Wade mixing up scabies ointment
And what does it look like when an English-speaking American doctor tries to communicate with a deaf Haitian brace shop worker? It is absolutely fascinating. Neither spoke the other's language, yet they managed to have a deep conversation about the different styles of braces and orthotics handmade by the craftsmen at St. Vincent's. Amazing to see how caring for others transcends any language barrier.
Brace shop workers "speaking" with Dr. Eric about the manufacturing process
These are some of the little snippets from The Red Thread's first four trips to Haiti this year that didn't warrant a dedicated post but we wanted to share. We thought you would enjoy these fun, interesting nuggets from our travels that provide another glimpse into our work and Haitian culture. Look for more "nuggets" in emails to come.

It's a cold, dreary Autumn morning here in Western New York. What better way is there to brighten it up a bit than to surf the Web and find wonderful blogs like yours? Oh, I wish I had seen that radiator first!

Where Lady Chatterley Danced Naked through the Vines with Her Sicilian Lover; Frank Barrett Visits Taormina,home to D.H.Lawrence in the 1920s and Inspiration for His Classic Tale of Lust
Byline: FRANK BARRETT
WALKING beyond the limits of Corso Umberto, the pedestrianised main street of Taormina, is not something you undertake lightly. Sicilian road users drive with a terrifying disregard for their own and other people's safety - anybody crazy enough to stroll the narrow highways (most of which are pavement-free) is taking his life in his hands.
On the point of turning back after one nervy excursion, I suddenly spotted a street sign saying 'Via David Herbert Lawrence', better known as D.H.
Lawrence, author of Lady Chatterley's Lover. But why here?
The lady at the tourist office felt sure Lawrence had been a local resident but went off to ask someone who might know more. She skipped back with excitement: 'Yes, his house is on the Via Lawrence - there is a plaque.' Her informant barked more information from a back room: 'He was inspired to write L'Amante Di Lady Chatterley when he was here . . . how do you say, Lady Chatterley's Lover?' I walked back through the morning heat and climbed the steep Via Lawrence until, after much searching, I found the modest plaque that records the bare details of Lawrence's brief residence at the Villa Fontana Vecchia.
Taormina was but one stop on Lawrence's restless wanderings ('Why can't one sit still?' he once complained). His travels took him to Ceylon, Australia and New Mexico.
He died in Vence in the South of France in 1930 aged just 44. He was a writer who courted controversy.
Long after his death, the paperback publication of Lady Chatterley in Britain in 1960 was a cause celebre.
In his lifetime, Lawrence did little to endear himself in Britain. During the First World War he married Frieda von Richthofen, cousin of the German fighter ace the Red Baron.
The couple were accused of signallingmessages to German U-boats from their Cornish home.
Suffering from tuberculosis, Lawrence needed to escape Britain for health reasons. But by 1919, when the couple finally abandoned England, he had decided the country was 'a banquet of vomit'. In 1920 the Lawrences arrived in Taormina - a popular destination for arty, expat Brits - and stayed for more than a year. It was a fruitful period, although by the end of his stay he was typically disenchanted. When he left he was praying that red-hot lava would rain down and engulf the place.
It all began so well. Shortly after he arrived, Lawrence wrote: 'I feel at last we are settled down and can breathe.
We've got a nice big house, with fine
rooms and a handy kitchen, set in a big garden, mostly vegetables, green with almond trees, on a steep slope at some distance above the sea. It is beautiful, and green, green, and full of flowers . . . There are a good many English people but one needn't know them . . .
Etna is a beautiful mountain, far lovelier than Vesuvius.' Frieda was pleased with their home: 'Along our rocky road the peasants rode past into the hills on their donkeys singing loudly; the shepherds drove their goats along, playing their reed pipes as in the days of the Greeks.' Fontana Vecchia was 'our own house above the almond trees, and the sea in the cove below where the sun rose with a splendour like trumpets! …

"The Importance of Being Earnest"
had its debut performance in London on 14th February 1895
Wilde's last and most famous play
Audience - Now & Then
by Jessica Frach
How does Oscar Wilde use language in "The Importance of Being Earnest" to criticize the hypocrisy of Victorian society?
Victorian upper/middle class
people admiring Oscar Wilde & his works
everyone, who is interested
"Servants listen to conversations in drawing rooms and dining rooms. They hear people discussing my play, their curiosity is aroused, and so they fill [the] theatre. I can see they are servants by their perfect manners."
- Wilde
criticize Victorian Society
make audience aware of Victorian vices
laugh at them
think about them
Stylistic Devices
double life lead by Algernon & Jack
Ernest vs. earnest
fiction & writing
earnest & Ernest
involving words referring to travelling & ancestry
inversions of sayings/clichés
elegant inversion
Connection to my research question:
How does Oscar Wilde use language in
"The Importance of Being Earnest" to criticize the hypocrisy of Victorian Society?
Lady Bracknell claims that she "had no idea that there were any families or
persons whose origin was a Terminus" (Wilde, 2012, p. 80, ll. 20f.)
first station of a railway line
shows her snobbishness
role model for Victorian superficial mindset

Wilde, O. (2012). The Importance of Being Earnest: A Trivial Comedy for Serious People
(M. Pfister, Ed.). Stuttgart: Reclam. (Original work published 1899)
Today's importance of my research question:
"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation." - Wilde
People dissemble & act hypocritical
due to social conventions/constraints
applies to both Victorians and contemporary societies
Mendacity & Hypocrisy
Gender roles
Reception - Now & Then
regarded as brilliant comedy
play did not seem to have any substance
critics could not criticize it due to its triviality
"I have not the slightest intention of criticizing Mr. O. Wilde's new piece at the St. James's: as well might one sit down after dinner and attempt gravely to discuss a soufflé. Its virtues were entirely bound up with its humour."
Review in the magazine "Truth" (21st February 1895):
Oscar Wilde himself called it "a delicate bubble of fancy" "written by a butterfly for butterflies"
Victorians liked his play because:
they could identify with characters (e.g. Lady Bracknell)
they recognized known places (e.g. Grosvenor Square)
Reception - Now & Then
still seen as a brilliant comedy
many different approaches to interpret it
criticism of Victorian society
the play as a gay play
because of:
Wilde's homosexuality
Susan Sontag's essay "Notes on Camp"
"Bunburying" as a code word for illegal sexual activity (=> homosexuality was forbidden)
possible pun: Earnest/uraniste
(uraniste= homosexual man)

I have already told you that we traveled to Los Angeles in the beginning of the year, so today I would like to share with you 5 great places to eat in LA.
Rae's Restaurant
Going to Rae's Restaurant is like you are traveling in time. It was open in 1958, and we think not much has changed since then – including the prices! Rae's Restaurant is a typical diner from the 50's and food is great, (we had breakfast there). It's definitely my number 1 recommendation!
Souplantation (in locations out of Southern California the restaurant is called Sweet Tomatoes) is our favorite restaurant in the US, so we couldn't miss the opportunity of eating there. Lots of salads, soups, pastas and delicious bakery treats, like muffins and focaccia!
Grand Central Market
We found out about the Grand Central Market on a Tastemade show called Off Menu and we immediately knew we had to go there. We ate at EggSlut, a restaurant that serves eggs in every dish. It was amazing! But at the Grand Central Market you can find a variety of options, like Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese food and more.
LA Farmers Market
The LA Farmers Market is another place with lots of options, but we chose Loteria Grill and shared some nachos. A huge dish that was good enough for 3 people!
Dream Korean BBQ
My cousin, who lives in Santa Barbara, is always in LA and he took us to this Korean restaurant called Dream Korean BBQ, in Koreatown. Salads and Korean barbecue made our day 🙂 It was a great and different meal, on a budget!

Jari-Matti Latvala and Miikka Anttila headed a strong start to Rallye de France for Ford World Rally Team by holding second place after today's opening leg. The Finns won three speed tests in their Ford Fiesta RS World Rally Car, while team-mates Petter Solberg and Chris Patterson bounced back from a difficult morning to lie fourth.
This 11th round of the FIA World Rally Championship opened last night with a short speed test in the streets surrounding Strasbourg's European Parliament. Today the action moved south to the Vosges mountains, near Colmar, where drivers tackled two identical loops of three stages, before ending with a street test in Mulhouse – a total of 146.17km.
Conditions this morning were difficult as yesterday's heavy rain left damp sections under the trees on the mountain slopes. The moist roads and cool temperatures encouraged both Latvala and Solberg to opt for Michelin's soft compound tyres for the opening loop. While they were less suited to the mostly dry roads in the opening stage, they were perfect for the next two which were damper.
Latvala was second in Strasbourg last night before claiming third in today's opening stage. He was second quickest in the next, only 0.8sec from fastest time, before winning the final stage of the morning. He arrived at the 15-minute service break in Colmar in second place.
"I really want to fight for the lead here so it was important to make a strong start and not lose big time this morning," said Latvala. "Tyre choice wasn't easy. The first stage was surprisingly dry and my soft tyres started to get too hot near the finish. But the second stage was 80 per cent damp and the last test was 50 per cent damp and they worked perfectly. Soft was the right choice."
As temperatures climbed to 22°C this afternoon, hard compound tyres were the natural choice. Latvala was fastest in the middle stage of the loop and completed the leg with victory in the final test through the streets of Mulhouse.
"My target was to improve my performance from the last asphalt round in Germany and I did that," said Latvala. "I was a little inconsistent at times because I lacked confidence in corners where mud had been dragged onto the road by cars cutting. Maybe I was trying to drive too fast and attack too much. Tomorrow's stages are narrow and bumpier, but I will try to keep the pressure on."
Solberg was third last night but struggled for confidence in today's opening two stages. His pace improved on the final stage of the loop but he arrived in Colmar in sixth.
"I didn't have a good rhythm through the first two stages," explained the 37-year-old Norwegian. "I wasn't confident so I drove cautiously as I didn't want to make a mistake. I made minor changes to the settings before the final stage and everything felt much better."
More small changes in service further improved his feeling and three second fastest times promoted him to fourth, closing to within 0.7sec of Mikko Hirvonen in third.
"The afternoon was much better," said Solberg. "Once I had the right feeling then my pace was at the same level as Jari-Matti. It's a shame that I lost time in the first two stages. Tomorrow I will keep pushing to try to reach the podium and if I can keep the same rhythm as I had this afternoon then that's achievable."
Ford World Rally Team director Malcolm Wilson said he wasn't surprised by the pace shown by his drivers today. "I felt we could come here and put pressure on Sébastien Loeb and I'm pleased we've done that," he said. "Hopefully the conditions tomorrow will be dry and consistent, which is what Jari-Matti likes, and he will keep the pressure on.
"Petter wasn't totally comfortable this morning but he had a strong afternoon and is within striking distance of the podium," added Wilson.
News from other Ford teams
Mads Østberg / Jonas Andersson are seventh for Adapta World Rally Team, the Norwegian driver losing time when his car stalled at the start of the final stage. M-Sport Ford World Rally Team's Ott Tänak / Kuldar Sikk and Evgeny Novikov / Ilka Minor are engrossed in a close battle for eighth in their Fiesta RS WRCs. Tänak holds the advantage by just 13.5sec, despite struggling with his pace notes. Martin Prokop / Zdenĕk Hrůza lie 12th after suffering an engine misfire in the Czech Ford National Team car throughout the day. French duo Julien Maurin / Nicolas Klinger are 16th while Brazil World Rally Team's Daniel Oliveira / Carlos Magalhaes are 24th, after losing time with a broken right rear driveshaft this afternoon.

Earlier today we brought you Rotten Tomatoes' list of the 100 worst reviewed films of the decade. Now, though it might be a little premature (considering that we still have a little while to go before we hit our next decade), the good folks over at I Heart Chaos have decided to get the ball rolling on those end-of-decade lists by shoveling out what they believe are the Top 50 Movies of the 2000's. Usually these kinds of things start to gain in popularity towards the end of the year, but I guess the early bird does get the worm, so let's get right to the chase and find out who made the cut.
When you've got a a list of 50, there is plenty of wiggle room, and it's a pretty comprehensive list that manages to find room for cult faves and foreign flicks. But I'll admit, even though Chaos has put together a solid list, I was a little surprised that the #1 film for this decade is Quentin Tarantino's Samurai/Cowboy epic, Kill Bill -- though that's the beauty of a list, everyone wants to have a little friendly debate, I guess. You can read the entire list over at Chaos, but rounding out the top five are The Dark Knight, No Country for Old Men, and Kinji Fukasaku's adaptation of Battle Royale.
The great thing about a long list like Chaos' is that it makes room for all kinds of movies that sometimes you just don't have room for in streamlined lists of five or ten entries. But I love a challenge, so I decided to put together a list of my top films of the 2000s ... although I've cheated just a little.
After the jump: my nominations for the top films of the 2000s...

How many times has the phrase "lose weight fast!" been uttered this month?
Well, I'm here to tell you of a sure way to lose weight fast . . . are you ready?
. . . give away your stuff!
Last weekend we got rid of over 200 lbs. just by listing our futon loveseat on Freecycle. It went so quickly and it was so nice to have the space in our house that we gave away its twin, too.
So - want to lose weight fast? Look around your house, pack up the stuff that no longer fits (physically or otherwise) and pass it on to someone else who can use it.
Lose weight fast today!!!

Reading this book will make you less sure of yourself - and thats a good thing. In The Invisible Gorilla, Christopher Chabris and Daniel Simons, creators of one of psychology's most famous experiments, use remarkable stories and counterintuitive scientific findings to demonstrate an important truth: Our minds dont work the way we think they do. We think we see ourselves and the world as they really are, but were actually missing a whole lot.

Two mobile carriers in the US, namely T-Mobile (of the big four fame, where the other three are Verizon, Sprint and AT&T in no particular order) have joined forces with MetroPCS, where these two wireless innovators are united with one common vision, that is, to deliver to wireless consumers exciting new choices without compromising on an exceptional experience.
John Legere, President & Chief Executive Officer of T-Mobile US, Inc., said, "The combination of T-Mobile and MetroPCS creates an even stronger disruptive force in the U.S. wireless market. Together, as America's Un-carrier, we'll continue our legacy of marketplace innovation by tearing up the old playbook and rewriting the rules of wireless to benefit consumers."
Right now, this new entity would feature a total PoP coverage of 301 million, where 283 million of these are covered by owned network. 228 million are currently playing nice with 4G connectivity, while another 200 million more are tipped to be covered with 4G LTE by the end of this year. It would be interesting to see the synergy of this particular partnership in the long run, no? Oh yeah, the merged entity's name is a short and sweet T-Mobile US. [Press Release]

Discussion in 'Off-topic' started by hollart, Jan 4, 2017.
Can we call any war "a peacemaking operation"??????????
The politicians' stirring phrases are meant to keep our eyes averted from the reality of war -- to make us imagine heroic young men marching in parades, winning glorious battles, and bringing peace and democracy to the world. But war is something quite different from that. It is your children or your grandchildren dying before they're even fully adults, or being maimed or mentally scarred for life. It is your brothers and sisters being taught to kill other people -- and to hate people who are just like themselves and who don't want to kill anyone either. It is your children seeing their buddies' limbs blown off their bodies. It is hundreds of thousands of human beings dying years before their time. It is millions of people separated forever from the ones they loved. It is the destruction of homes for which people worked for decades. It is the end of careers that meant as much to others as your career means to you. It is the imposition of heavy taxes on you and on other Americans and on people in other countries -- taxes that remain long after the war is over. It is the suppression of free speech and the jailing of people who criticize the government. It is the imposition of slavery by forcing young men to serve in the military. It is goading the public to hate foreign people and races -- whether Arabs or Japanese or Cubans. It is numbing our sensibilities to cruelties inflicted on foreigners. It is cheering at the news of foreign pilots killed in their planes, of young men blown to bits while trapped inside tanks, of sailors drowned at sea. Other tragedies inevitably trail in the wake of war. Politicians lie even more than usual. Secrecy and cover-ups become the rule rather than the exception. The press becomes even less reliable. War is genocide, torture, cruelty, propaganda, dishonesty, and slavery. War is the worst obscenity government can inflict upon its subjects. It makes every other political crime -- corruption, bribery, favoritism, vote-buying, graft, dishonesty -- seem petty. Government's Role If government has a role to play in foreign affairs, it isn't to win wars, to assure that the right people run foreign countries, to protect innocent foreigners from guilty aggressors, or to make the world safe for democracy -- or even a safer place at all. If government has a role, it can be only to keep us out of wars -- to make sure no one will ever attack us, to make certain you can live your life in peace, to assure you the freedom to ignore who is right and who is wrong in foreign conflicts. The only reason for military power is to discourage attackers, and -- if they come anyway -- to repel them at our borders. Such things as stationing troops in far-off lands, meddling in foreign disputes, and sending our children to foreign countries as "peacekeepers" only encourage war. To make America safer and to assure that we stay at peace, we don't need to put more weapons in the hands of government employees, or to reform military purchasing methods, or to make more treaties with other governments, or to increase the military budget. In fact, we need just the opposite of these things. We need to make it as hard as possible for politicians to involve us in war. And we need to create a defense system that relies as little as possible on the normal workings of government. Definitely we can't call war a peacemaking operation
@teezhie the copy copy War as we all know that by itself it isn't a peace act. That's why it is called war. War is not meant to make peace. When you fight war, you are fighting for survival and one side will definitely suffer 'unrest'. Which is not synonymous to peace in my own understanding. In summary, you don't fight or go to war to make peace
We are all guilty of the word copy...lol
Please to me o. I'm not guilty cos I don't copy
Instead of me to say LOL, i will rather say SALTS (laughed a little then stopped).. War can never be an act of peace keeping or peace making.. War is even much more expensive than Peace.. Why not mke Peace and save lives rather dan going to war first and later resolving to mke peace..
That is what our Nigerian government especially this buhari's administration do not know.. After mking us to lose millions of dollar in the act or stopping amnesty and mking the boiz to destroy pipelines and oil well, you finally nor resolved to pay dem..isnt that the height of stupidy??
Like that.. Dope than lol
I wonder how war helps to keep peace. In fact how does it sound to you at the mention of both words. War (unrest), Peace (calmness). They are not the same and war will never bring peace as long as it continues to reign
How can wat be a peace operation, when people are breaking their heads and killing each other and you call that a peace operation,what kind of war sef,is it war where they use swords or war where they use guns...and again I get confused, what makes people fight war is it because of the country or because of the states..or because of the king or governor
War and peace are antonymns.
Not at all.... Not all wars are peace making oriented.

Please let me know if you have any questions. I'll be glad to help.
Thanks Bryan. I have to go out now. I will look at the page you recommend, this afternoon, and I'll get back to you. Peter
Have a great day!
Hey Peter. Any luck with that link? Any questions?
Hi Bryan. I have logged off because there will be no funds on my credit card until Thursday 10th April. I will reactivate my account soon.
Hi Bryan. I have logged off because there will be no funds in my credit card account until Thursday 10th April. I will reactivate my Account soon. Shortly after submitting the question to you I had go out (before I had received the reply). I then read the answer and had to go out again straight away before acting on your advice. It's been a busy week since then. I looked-up the site you recommended and downloaded some editing software, but then read that you could not edit from different sources with it. What I have is video from a camcorder, video from an SLR, and sound from a digital audio recorder. The sound on the best video has a buzz, (probably from using cheap leads and connectors), so I'd like to use the separate audio track, combining the two. These would have to be synchronized manually. I don't know if this can be done; I've never used editing software before. The footage we shot was requested by a Rumanian Christian TV Channel. I have handed a copy of the video from both sources, and the audio, on a USB stick, to the person who gave the talk, and he will pass it to the TV Channel. I'm hoping they will have the means and the will to edit it. I'd like to do some editing with the material, as well. We got some nice stuff and I'd like to produce something to give copies to the various people in it and something which our church might use, perhaps on its web site. But money is in short supply, so things have to wait. (And I have other things to do, as well). I will log on to Just answer again. There are plenty of areas in which I will value expert advice. But, for now, thanks for what you did; there is more to be done in the future. You might be hearing from me again. You have a great day
Hi Peter. Ok, just let me know when you're ready to continue.

Survey: Should America Drill, Drill, Drill?
The word from founder Graham has always been: we are not red or blue, we are green. But some days it is really, really hard not to take a position that aligns with one party or the other, and this might be one of those defining positions. One party supports drilling offshore and in protected areas; the other does not. What should we do?

With the Trump administration expected to roll back federal climate policy, advocates are hoping states and cities will pick up the slack on reducing carbon emissions.
Chicago is often touted as a leader on this front thanks to its solar, energy efficiency and other programs, along with the 2012 closure of two urban power plants and city officials' action against petroleum coke storage.
Now a majority of City Council members and the Chicago chapter of 350.org want the city to make a statement against the fossil fuel industry by pledging to divest the city's pension funds and stocks and bonds.
A divestment resolution was introduced in December, and backers are hoping it will be heard by the full council this spring. The measure would be largely symbolic, since a resolution is non-binding and the state government is in charge of pension investments. But supporters say that the resolution would send a powerful message and could be followed by a city ordinance that might mandate some divestments.
Forty of the council's 50 members have co-sponsored the resolution. The chief sponsors are Sue Sadlowski Garza, part of a prominent family of union steelworkers and a leader in the battle against petcoke storage in her ward; and John Arena, one of the council's few long-time independent members and a leader of the Progressive Caucus.
"Would Reverberate Around the World"
The proposed resolution notes that "the consequences of climate change stand to make Chicago a less desirable place to live and work, negatively impacting the fiscal and social health of the city." It cites predictions published in the city's climate action plan that the city could see "heat waves as strong as the deadly 1995 Chicago heat wave -- in which 739 deaths occurred -- several times per summer." It also notes that ozone levels could increase 10 to 50 percent; precipitation could increase 25 percent; and there would be increased risk of Lyme disease and West Nile virus in the area.
Thirty-four cities nationwide have vowed to divest from fossil fuels, typically defined as the 200 publicly-traded companies with the largest coal, oil and gas reserves as identified by the Carbon Tracker Initiative, the resolution says. Chicago would be the largest city to divest and one of relatively few in the Midwest. Minneapolis and Madison also pledged to divest.
Worldwide, institutions worth more than $5 trillion have divested from fossil fuels, with governments making up 18 percent of the total institutions, according to 350.org's Fossil Free project. The parliament of Ireland -- where many Chicago residents and politicians have roots -- voted to divest the country's strategic investment fund from fossil fuels in January.
Lindsay Meiman, national spokesperson for 350.0rg, said most divestment commitments are through non-binding resolutions, and the group is not able to track what divestments are actually made since the information is typically not public.
"That said, inherent to the purpose of the tactic of divestment is to force our institutions to question where they are putting their resources, and whose side they are on: that of the people for whom they exist, or that of the fossil fuel industry knowingly perpetuating the climate crisis," Meiman said. "Chicago divesting would reverberate around the world as a powerful signal."
How the Divestment Would Work
Chicago has four employee pension funds -- for police officers, firefighters, municipal employees and laborers. The resolution calls for divesting those funds and the city's stock and bond holdings from fossil fuels within five years, and asking fund managers of any commingled funds to move the city's investments out of fossil fuels. It also calls for investment in renewable energy.
While the city government could decide to divest the bonds and stocks it holds directly, 350.org organizer Larry Coble said the group also eventually hopes to work with state legislators to divest the pension funds, though that would be a "heavy lift."
In a city and state where pension funds are in crisis from short-sighted past decisions, supporters of divestment say that it is financially in the best interests of city employees, elected officials and residents.
"There's a good argument to save the pension funds and pensioners when the carbon bubble bursts," said Coble. "It's like musical chairs, you don't want to be left holding these bonds when the music ends."
"It would basically send a signal to the markets, and society in general, that these fossil fuel companies are essentially not good actors, that they don't really have humanity's future in mind, only their profits," he continued. "This is a way of also putting some pressure on those pension funds to start thinking about it."
Coble joined the 350.org Chicago group not long after it was founded, about three years ago, motivated by responsibility to his now-13-year-old son.
"I figured the moral thing to do was get involved," said Coble, who works as a beer brewer. "Some of the worst things could start happening while he's in the prime of his life. I didn't want him to come back to me when I'm 70 or 80 and say, 'Dad you knew about all this, why didn't you do something?'"
He noted that 350.org's membership grew exponentially almost overnight after Trump's election.
David Bietila, 40 and a university librarian, joined the group after the election. He was eager to become active on climate, and his mother, a retired nurse and artist in Madison, suggested 350.org. He said the resolution could be an important victory even if it is purely symbolic.
"A lot of it is to get attention to this issue in local media, to show that a big city would support divestment," he said. "It contributes to an overall climate where people are more and more aware of climate change, it shows fossil fuels as morally not acceptable, and shows that there are other options.
"Under this [Trump] administration, a lot of victories in the US will be local victories. Those are needed to mobilize people to be active. If you can win local victories, you have to assume there are other people like you working elsewhere, and cumulative effects will happen."

After a night of luxury at the Balmacara Hotel (and a huge breakfast) the day started in pouring rain. This was to be repeated throughout the day, but at least the sun did pop out a few times. 100 mph winds, and snow, were forecast for the top of the Munros (over 3000 feet).
The two climbs were either side of the ferry. First was Bealach Ratagain at 339 metres (over 1100 feet), which is likely to be the highest on the whole route. The second, Bealach Udal, was 'only' 279 metres, but involved a steep section near the top that almost proved too difficult to push the bike up. I was pleased to be able to cycle most of these climbs, but the really steep sections were beyond me.
I'm camping tonight next to the Sligachan Hotel, where Bundy and I have been on two or three occasions on previous cycling trips. It's a welcome haven in an otherwise remote part of the island. The last three miles from Sconser were cycled in driving rain; it's annoying to arrive at the campsite wet, because there's no time, or facilities, to dry off before setting off the following day.
Tomorrow I'm staying with fellow Geographer Dave Fergusson, who lives in Uig.

Tip: Improve Windows 8 with Third Party Utilities
With developers now tearing up the Windows 8 developer preview and looking for hidden gems, we're going to soon see an amazing number of utilities aimed at improving the Windows 8 experience and, in some cases, making it work more like its predecessors. While I can't endorse or support that kind of thing, let alone recommend individual utilities quite yet, I figured it would be useful to collect what's out there in a single location. more
Mailbag: Windows 8 Developer Preview
As you might imagine, my inbox is overflowing with questions about Windows 8, thanks to Microsoft's recent release of the first public Developer Preview. I don't have all the answers, but here are some of the more representative questions I've received in the past 10 days. more
Windows 8 Tip: Using a Mouse
The new Windows 8 shell, as exemplified by the Start screen, works equally well with the keyboard and mouse, or with a Tablet PC-style stylus, as it does with touch. But because a mouse (or a similar device, like a laptop's trackpad) will be the most commonly used pointing device in Windows 8, it makes sense to investigate how you use one in this supposedly touch-centric UI. Shocker: It works just fine. more

Reimagining Microsoft: How Windows 8 and Windows Server 8 Change the Rules
Microsoft has put a lot of effort into Windows 8 and Windows Server 8, and that effort shows: The new and improved feature list for Windows Server 8 runs into the hundreds, with massive enhancements to existing features (like Hyper-V) and long-overdue upgrades to less flashy features -- like improvements to CHKDSK and IP address management -- that will make Windows System Administrators more efficient and give them back some precious time. more

Windows 8 Features and Terminology
As the author of several books about Microsoft platforms--Windows Phone 7 Secrets most recently, and of course the coming Windows 8 Secrets--I'm very concerned about documenting both the features of these platforms--applications, services, and so on--but also the terminology that Microsoft uses to describe them. These things have names, and need to be referenced properly. Here's an early peek at where I'm at. more

Zoe's first significant event as part of the Old Town Boutique District (OTBD) is the Annual Charity Day, called Boutiques Give Back on May 19th. I was informed of the date at the time I was signing up for the OTBD and immediately started thinking about what charity I would promote and support that day.
Last year, although I was not yet a member of the OTBD, I participated in Charity Day on my own! I didn't have the media coverage and promotion but instead relied on social media postings and a sign in the store. At the end of the day, I was able to write a small check to my chosen charity, the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria.
I am fortunate to know a couple of the members of the Board of Directors from AWLA - one a former co-worker and the other a Zoe customer. I had recently made a donation to their Spring Fundraiser/Silent Auction event called Mardi Growl! And it just seemed like a logical step to work with them for Boutiques Give Back.
I started out by writing to AWLA's Development Director to introduce myself, explain the promotion, my passion for the League, and ask if they would be comfortable with a) Zoe partnering with them and b) cross-promoting the event. He got back to me quickly with an affirmative "Yes" and asked for my logo. I sent it on to him and told him that I would provide him with more information as I learned more by mid-April.
I knew I also wanted to give my customers something for their pets as an additional incentive to visit Zoe that day. I decided to stop in to visit PetSage, a local holistic pet store where I buy dry food for my kitties (all of their other spoiling ended when I left my job 2 years ago but we do still spend the money for the good dry food). The owner knows me because I occasionally have to buy the food over the phone and have her leave it outside for me to pick up on my way home from Zoe (our store hours are the same so I have a hard time getting there when they are open). When I stopped in to ask her advice on what kind of treats to get, she offered to donate the treats to me! That was a fantastic advantage! I picked up the 70 bags of dog treats and 30 bags of catnip on Monday!
AWLA and I agreed that it might be fun to help promote the event and partnership with my story of why I chose AWLA. That was an easy one to write! Although some of you who are on my mailing list and follow the store Facebook page have read the story, I will put a link here for those who have not read it yet.
AWLA has been a fantastic partner! They have featured Muffin and her story as the "Tail of the Day" on their front page with the Zoe logo prominently displayed as well! They have been sending out information on the event in their mailings that include the store and logo. They have posted stories on Facebook and Twitter and they brought some great giveaways and information for me to hand out between now and Saturday! As of right now, they plan to have a representative on hand between 12:30 and 2:30 and may even have an adoptable dog with them too!
I hope to share a great report on the event with you in my next blog post!
And now, a gratuitous picture of my precious Muffin - Jim and I still miss her.

On the top of the world!
An extremely exciting event was listed in my calendar for Thursday evening. I was invited to be the MiM representative at the first special presentation in the so called 'London Business School Business Leaders Series' of this year. The special guest was Tony Hayward, Group Chief Executive of BP Group, the largest company in the UK and the fourth largest in the world, who would talk about the future of 'Energy Security'. The topic interests me immensely and of course it is a great honour to hear the very informed opinion of the business leader on this!
When I arrived at the Sainsbury Reception for registration I received a guest list for the event, that made me feel quite small. A Member of Parliament, the Head of Climate Change in the UK, Managing Directors of McKinsey and BCG, CEO's of energy companies, several Oxford Professors and many more impressive characters were all there. I was sitting next to a counsellor from the Russian Embassy, who turned out to be quite nice (that's some high-level networking;-)).
Anyway, after an introduction by our dean Andrew Likierman, who of course couldn't resist some marketing by explaining everyone carefully that our MBA programme is listed by the Financial Times as the number 1 in the world, Tony Hayward kicked off. The bottom line was a simple logic that of course put a smile on Mr Hayward's face: oil and gas will remain the main sources of energy at least in the next 50 years à demand rises and supply falls à price will go up à BP will do very well. Fair enough.
The next high-level event was one night later, on the seventh floor of the Penthouse Club on Leicester Square, great clubbing with an even better view on the Big Ben and the London Eye! But that's a very different story.
The MiM Life
The Masters in Management Blog has taken off! From now on we will keep you updated with an interesting, fun and uncensored glimpse into the London Business School MiM and everything around it.

For Respondent-Appellants (WD76765): Daniel Carpenter, Amy Lorenz-Moser, Jeffery McPherson, Clayton, MO.

Before Division One: Thomas H. Newton, P.J., Lisa White Hardwick, and Anthony Rex Gabbert, JJ. Hardwick and Gabbert, JJ. concur.
Page 484
Thomas H. Newton, Presiding Judge
Mr. Stephen and Ms. Cynthia Hale filed a petition for damages against Cottrell, Inc., Pacific Motor Trucking Company (PMT), Auto Handling Corporation (AHC) (collectively, " the Defendants" ), and others.[1] Cottrell filed a motion to dismiss the petition, which the other defendants joined. The trial court invoked its inherent powers and dismissed the case with prejudice on the ground that the Hales, aided by their attorneys, committed fraud on the trial court. Cottrell requested attorney fees, which the trial court denied. The Hales appeal, and Cottrell cross-appeals. We affirm.
Factual and Procedural Background
In August 1996, Mr. Hale sustained an injury to the lower back in an on-the-job accident at Continental Waste Management (CWI). A larger truck driven by a Lochirco Fruit and Produce Company (Lochirco) driver hit Mr. Hale and a coworker, while they were driving in one of CWI's trucks. Mr. Hale went to St. John's Mercy Hospital for x-rays. Thereafter, he went to Washington Memorial for rehabilitation; he was recommended to Dr. David Chalk for follow-up care.
In 1997, Mr. Hale filed for workers' compensation benefits. In July 1997, Dr. R. Peter Mirkin evaluated Mr. Hale on behalf of CWI. Dr. Mirkin opined in a report that Mr. Hale suffered a " very mild [back] strain" from the 1996 accident, but that it had " completely resolved" such that Mr. Hale could " work without restrictions." He concluded that Mr. Hale would experience episodic back pain solely attributed to a preexisting condition (" congenital anomaly . . . on the right" but no spondylolisthesis[2] and " preexisting degenerative
Page 485
spine problems" ) and that Mr. Hale was not permanently disabled from the injury. In November 1997, Dr. Charles McGinty, Sr., examined Mr. Hale on behalf of Mr. Hale's counsel. Contrary to Dr. Mirkin, Dr. McGinty issued a detailed opinion that Mr. Hale suffered a severe spraining injury to the preexisting spine condition (partial spondylolisthesis, a congenital deformity, in the lower back and " its subsequent asymptomatic development of arthritic changes" ), and that the injury aggravated or exacerbated this condition. Dr. McGinty observed that Mr. Hale walked with a minimal limp on the right side. He concluded that Mr. Hale had a permanent partial disability of thirty-five percent at the lower back, ten percent of which was due to the preexisting condition, and the remaining twenty-five percent to the spraining injury. In 1998, the parties disagreed as to the " nature, extent of [permanent partial disability], medical causation, . . . [and] past [and] future medical [expenses]," and settled the case. They agreed that Mr. Hale had only a tenpercent disability of the lower back. Mr. Hale remained under the care of Dr. Chalk.
In 2001, Mr. Hale filed a civil suit seeking compensation for the injuries and damages caused by the 1996 accident. Mr. Hale amended the petition in 2003 to seek damages from Lochirco for its driver's negligence and CWI's insurer for contract liability to Mr. Hale as the beneficiary of the underinsured policy. The petition alleged that the injuries Mr. Hale sustained in 1996 were permanent and progressive in nature. The petition further alleged that Mr. Hale " ha[d]. . . suffered great pain, . . . discomfort, inconvenience, and disruption of the enjoyment of life as a proximate result of [Lochirco]'s negligence," and that " [Mr. Hale] ha[d] [thus]. . . incurr[ed] medical expense in excess of $25,000[,] and w[ould] in the future incur further medical expense and require medical treatment." In April 2004, the case was dismissed without prejudice. In October 2004, Mr. Hale obtained the legal file from his counsel for the CWI and the Lochirco cases. The previous litigation file contained all of the medical records.
In September 2005, Mr. Hale was allegedly injured on the job while " performing his normal work duties as a car hauler for [Jack Cooper Transport]" by operating a rig (trailer) manufactured by Cottrell. A few weeks later, Mr. Hale was evaluated by Dr. David Kennedy, who noted in a medical report that Mr. Hale stated that he had no prior injury to the lumbar spine (lower back).[3] Dr. Kennedy noted disc herniation and recommended surgery if the prescribed epidural steroid injections did not alleviate the pain. He opined that the 2005 incident caused Mr. Hale's symptoms and need for treatment. At some point, Mr. Hale had back surgeries.
In 2006, Mr. Hale obtained new counsel, Mr. Jonathan Isbell, for a workers' compensation claim against Jack Cooper Transport. Sometime between 2006 and 2009, Mr. Hale delivered the previous litigation file to Mr. Isbell. In 2007,[4] the Hales obtained other counsel, Mr. Brian Wendler and Mr. Charles Armbruster, III,
Page 486
to sue the Defendants and others for damages. Mr. Isbell and Mr. Wendler shared office space, and they also shared Mr. Hale's medical records for the 2005 incident.
In September 2007, the Hales filed a multi-count petition, seeking compensatory damages from the Defendants under several theories, including products liability. The petition was amended in 2008 to include counts for punitive damages. In the amended petition, the Hales claimed that Mr. Hale injured his lower back and related areas during normal operation of a Cottrell rig while working. The Hales alleged that the loading skids on the Cottrell rig were defective and required replacement. They also alleged that the replacement skids from Canaramp USA, LLC, Fixco, Inc., or C.F. Bender, Inc., were defective. They further alleged that AHC improperly maintained the Cottrell rig by using the replacement skids that were ill suited to it, and that PMT tested those replacement skids on the Cottrell rig and approved the modification, knowing that those skids were dangerous. They further claimed that the Defendants' wrongful conduct resulted in injuries to Mr. Hale that deprived Ms. Hale of spousal support and services.
Discovery occurred among the parties, and it was sometimes contentious. In 2007, Cottrell sought medical records for the lower back before and after the 2005 incident by posing two questions in its interrogatories to the Hales. The Hales originally objected to the requests as " overbroad in time" and scope, but stated that " all available medical records and bills for plaintiffs ha[d] been produced." The Hales responded in a similar manner to other defendants, including a statement to Fixco that the 1996 injury was not the same as the 2005 injury.
In February 2009, the Hales later supplemented their responses with records from Dr. Chalk, who began treating Mr. Hale in 1996 for the lower back injury. They did not produce other medical records (Dr. Mirkin's and Dr. McGinty's reports and the St. John's x-ray results) concerning the 1996 injury. Mr. Hale was deposed in August 2008. In November 2008, Mr. Hale's deposition continued, during which he was confronted with his responses to prior interrogatories from the previous litigation concerning which doctors saw him. Mr. Hale acknowledged his responses. None of the attorneys questioned him about any visits with Drs. Mirkin or McGinty, two of the doctors mentioned in the response. Subsequently, the Defendants sought records from those doctors, and both offices reported that any records they had for Mr. Hale were gone due to the passage of time. Thereafter, Dr. Mirkin's report was produced by the Hales.
The jury trial was set for March 23, 2010.[5] At trial, the Hales' counsel stated in the opening statement that the jury would see the medical records from doctors of the prior lawsuit. A few witnesses were presented, and Mr. Hale was called to testify. Mr. Hale experienced an unrelated medical emergency. Thereafter, a mistrial was declared; retrial was initially set for March 7, 2011.
Subsequently, on February 8, 2011, Cottrell filed a motion to dismiss the case, pursuant to Rule 61.01(a), (d),[6] as a sanction against the Hales for violating Rule 56.01(b)(1).
Page 487
PMT and AHC joined in the motion. Prior to filing this motion, the trial court was informed that Dr. Mirkin's report was part of a Workers' Compensation Division record received by the Hales and that more than twenty pages of it were not produced. Thus, the trial court ordered Mr. Wendler to produce those pages, despite his representation that nothing of importance was contained in the remaining record. In the produced pages, Cottrell discovered Dr. McGinty's report that summarized and discussed in detail the St. John's records. The Defendants claimed that the Hales violated the discovery rule by failing to produce responsive documents before the 2010 trial.
On February 22, 2011, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss, but this time they argued that the Hales were judicially estopped from taking a contrary position than their previous one.[7] The Defendants argued that Mr. Hale was " playing fast and loose" with the trial court, which undermined the integrity of the judicial process. The Defendants requested a dismissal, or that Mr. Hale " be estopped from denying that his low[er] back was not permanently disabled (or resolved) from the 1996 injury." Mr. Hale was deposed again; he admitted to seeing Drs. McGinty and Mirkin, but claimed that he did not ...
