The West Midlands region is truly at the heart of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
From the historic market town of Much Wenlock in Shropshire – which was instrumental in the founding of the modern Olympic Movement – to Football Host City Coventry and the nation's second city Birmingham, the West Midlands is embracing London 2012 and the opportunities it brings the region.
Planning and delivery
The West Midlands Leadership Group for the 2012 Games was set up to coordinate the region's response to London 2012. The Leadership Group brings together key representatives from each of the region's six sub regions and from business, sport, culture, tourism, education and skills, as well as the Youth Parliament, disability interests and Government agencies.
Its vision is to raise the profile of the region and provide the inspiration for a legacy of opportunity for individuals, communities and businesses.
We are working hard to ensure we celebrate the distinctiveness of the West Midlands region and are focused on where we can make a real difference, shining nationally and internationally.
Cultural Olympiad
The West Midlands is also fully embracing, and in some cases shaping, the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad.
The World Shakespeare Festival, which is part of the London 2012 Festival, will celebrate the work of the world's most famous playwright on an enormous scale with performances across the UK, including Birmingham and the Bard's birthplace Stratford-upon-Avon.
The innovative and inspiring West Midlands Community Games programme, which has already engaged 165,000 people in communities throughout the region, has recently been awarded a £2 million grant to be rolled out across England.
In addition to these opportunities, people across the West Midlands are also dancing in celebration of London 2012 through Dancing for the Games, singing and cycling as part of Godiva Awakes, and will witness world-class performances through spectacular London 2012 Festival events such as The Voyage.
The West Midlands is determined to ensure that, through these programmes, events and opportunities, every person across the region gets involved with London 2012. It is also encouraging those who participate to share their experiences through their Inspire mark campaign, The Games and Me, as a way of inspiring others and recording the West Midlands' legacy of London 2012 as a piece of social history.
Pre-Games Training Camps
In the weeks leading up the Games the West Midlands will play host to some of the greatest athletes on earth as the USA and Jamaica track and field teams set up their London 2012 training camps in Birmingham. Elsewhere, the small Caribbean island of Dominica will base their Boxing team in Wolverhampton.

Notre Dame coach Kelly begins BCS campaign
Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o is congratulated by teammates Dan Fox and Bennett Jackson, right, after his interception during the second half of Notre Dame's 21-6 win over Boston College in a NCAA college football game in Boston Saturday, Nov. 10, 2012. (AP Photo/Winslow Townson) |
Brian Kelley waited until the end of the presidential election to start campaigning for a spot in the BCS title game.
The Notre Dame coach made his case on Sunday for a Top 2 spot in the polls that would allow the Fighting Irish (10-0) to play for a national championship. Oregon and Kansas State may be getting a lot of attention with their high-powered offenses, but Kelly said Notre Dame's defense is every bit as impressive.
"Each team has their own distinctions. The distinction of this football team is it's the No.1 scoring defense in the country," he said on a conference call with reporters a day after a 21-6 victory over Boston College helped the Irish move up to No. 3 in The Associated Press Top 25.

In each of these tales Margaret Atwood deftly illuminates the single instant that shapes a whole life: in a few brief pages we watch as characters progress from the vulnerabilities of adolescence through the passions of youth into the precarious complexities of middle age. By superimposing the past on the present, Atwood paints interior landscapes shaped by time, regret, and life's lost chances, endowing even the banal with a sense of mystery. Richly layered and disturbing, poignant at times and scathingly witty at others, the stories in Wilderness Tips take us into the strange and secret places of the heart and inform the familiar world in which we live with truths that cut to the bone.
Margaret Atwood is the author of over twenty-five books, including fiction, poetry, and essays. Among her most recent works are the bestselling novels Alias Grace and The Robber Bride and the collections Wilderness Tips and Good Bones and Simple Murders. She lives in Toronto.

It's a thoroughly mixed bag this
issue, as we take a rollercoaster
ride by human power on land,
water and even in the air. But
why should a cycling magazine
include these more unusual forms
of pedal power? After all, few
readers will find pedal boating or
airship travel useful in their
everyday cycling lives.
First, because I find human power
in all its forms fascinating, and I
hope you do too. It's also pure
inspiration: after hearing that
someone's pedalled to Hawaii, or
crossed the Channel by human
power airship, it's hard to whinge
about a bit of rain preventing you
from cycling to work.
So if seeing watercraft and aircraft
in our pages irks the purists,
so be it. There is plenty of more
conventional (for us at least) fare
in this issue too, including a
wonderfully diverse collection of
reader reviews, a look back at an
enjoyable summer of cycling, and
tests of some impressive new
bikes. Thanks again to all who
contributed, and enjoy the read!

Perhaps Some Animes Are in Order?
Once inside, I'm thrown into a totally unfamiliar culture. "Will Numa Numa for Glomp." What strange language is this? It seems to follow the basic syntax of English, but what do those words mean? I'm surrounded by the strange mysteries of anime&
It's immediately apparent that I'm underdressed. I seem to have committed the first faux pas of the anime convention: I showed up without my costume. I become a little bit self-conscious about my appearance. No worries, though: with my moth-eaten sweater, protruding shirttails and unshaven countenance, I'm pulling off a pretty good "big sloppy guy" costume.
See? This guy is rocking the same basic costume idea, and he fits right in.

From the Feb. 11, 1954 News Record:
Something new in meats which dates back to the day of the pioneers and the westward expansion is being offered this weekend by the Gillette Locker Plant. A 2-year-old buffalo was brought in from the Little Buffalo ranch owned by R.B. Marquiss and sons in the southern part of the county and the meat will be sold by the pound to the public. The common fare of the pioneers is a rare item for the modern day table, Larry O'Neal, owner of the locker plant, pointed out, and we are happy to be able to offer this limited supply.

Herbert Reynolds of Rockypoint was reported to have been severely injured last Saturday when he was kicked in the face by a horse. He was hauling logs to the saw mill when the accident happened.

Lake Zurich school report card: 5 of 8 schools reach targets
Jaime Johnson removes some of the lettering on a bullentin board from last school year as she prepares her fifth-grade classroom at Isaac Fox Elementary School. | Michelle LaVigne~Sun-Times Media
Updated: November 9, 2012 8:36AM
LAKE ZURICH — Five out of the eight schools in Lake Zurich Community Unit School District 95 made Adequate Yearly Progress under the federal No Child Left Behind Act, according to the 2011-12 school report card released by the Illinois State Board of Education.
Dr. Terry Mootz, the district's director of data and assessment, said that due to the complexity of the analysis, however, a school that fails to meet requirements should not necessarily be branded as a failing school.
"It is essential as a learning community that data from multiple sources be reviewed to provide a holistic picture of school improvement," Mootz said. "While state test data is one indicator of student learning, the district realizes that it must continue to seek out additional tools to measure student learning and program success."
Mootz cited tests like the Prairie State Achievement Examination (PSAE), the Illinois Standard Achievement Test (ISAT) and the Illinois Alternate Assessment as additional tools for gauging student progress.
"Data from multiple assessments should provide an encompassing picture of student achievement," said Mootz.
As an example, Mootz cited Lake Zurich High School, which also did not meet all requirements for AYP but the high school was recently designated one of the nation's best high schools by two national publications.
The Chicago Sun-Times' school report card analysis ranked LZHS 37th out of 689 high schools in Illinois.
Mootz said those are indicators that a multi-faceted approach to student assessment is necessary.
"It's always a challenge to determine what information is directing schools to actions," said Mootz.
Under the AYP requirements, each individual student body and every one of its subgroup populations must reach the designated safe harbor target.
The three District 95 schools that came up short include Sarah Adams Elementary, Lake Zurich Middle School North and Lake Zurich High School.
At Sarah Adams, 54.3 percent of the school's disabled student population met or exceeded state reading standards. The safe harbor target was set at 63.6 percent.
The Middle School North campus failed to meet AYP's safe harbor targets in four categories. Those include Hispanic students in reading, Hispanic students in math, disabled students in reading and disabled students in math.
At LZHS, the overall student body didn't reach targets in reading or math, the white student population didn't meet reading standards, and low-income students didn't hit the standards in reading and math.
In addition to LZHS ranked 37th statewide, Isaac Fox Elementary School also made the Sun-Times' top 100 school at 86th out of the 2,202 elementary buildings in the state.
For two years in a row, Isaac Fox students have met or exceeded composite standards at a 96 percent clip.
To ensure all district schools hit the mandated targets, Mootz said each school brought together a team of teachers and administrators for two days in the fall to complete data analysis to identify problems and determine what actions should be taken for the next school year.
Mootz said the primary aim of these assessments is to streamline the learning process in a way that would most effectively benefit students.
"This follows the logic that when true learning has occurred, it will manifest itself in performance," Mootz said.

Melissa Harris-Perry | December 01, 2012
>>> you shot him over some music and he was in the car. there is no logical reason. there is nothing logical that you can say that would make me believe that you were threatened.
>> that was lucia mcbeth, the mother of jordan davis, the teenage boy that was shot while unarmed at a gas station last week. back with me are "the grio"'s joy reid and you talked with the lawyer representing the family. they have some angst about this turning into a trayvon martin parallel. talk to me about what you know.
>> in talking to the lawyer, he said that the trayvon martin case was a great blueprint of whatnot to do. by exposing the family and opening them up to attacks and being targeted, we saw that not long after the family was ubiquitous. the white sue prem sifts came out. that's what they don't want. there are similarities in this case but it is completely different.
>> this is like our challenge as we were sitting in nerdland. we make a decision of what we are going to talk about. after having read your piece, i thought this is a family that is asking in a certain way for a cheeld. on the other hand, the story itself feels like we can't allow it to happen in the darkness, we need the public light of scrutiny, because you were saying earlier that at lease the based on what you understand of how florida's laws work, there is some possibility that this may be a defense that works for this avail lent.
>> florida is one of the highest incour incarcerating state, a death penalty state. up until the point of conviction tir , it is a defense friendly state. it gave tremendous latitude to a shooter so long as the person they shoot dies. as long as no one can truly prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that you didn't feel threatened shall the burden of proof is on the defense and almost on the decedent to show that somehow they were not threatening. this guy has the opportunity to use a stand your ground defense before they even get to a full trial. it is starting to look like that's where it is going to go.
>> obviously, we don't know whether or not these young men had a weapon in the car. it certainly is possible. the assailant had a weapon in his car. that's part of what made me pause. folks are driving around with weapons in their cars. is the problem stand your ground or how we think about how armed everyone should be?
>> i think it is the intersection. the weapons raise the incident rate of the use of weapons and laws that afford a greater latitude of their use. as a lawyer, i look at it and say, what is the law for? the law is for justice. the law is for conduct. justice, because no matter what happens, we expect a just system to afford some modicum of balance. these stand your ground laws as joy so lightly put it take some of the extra powers that we give to police, because of what we ask them to do and transfer them to civilians that don't have the training and aren't required under the law to get it so that, yes, it is hard in a situation where you might genuinely feel fear to identify what is a weapon and what is something that looks like a decision. when police make that decision, they are operating within a set of training. what we've done with these laws in these states is, basically, i believe and i don't know the facts of this case yet, because we don't have all the facts yet. i know at the aggregate level, when you give people more incentive to shoot first and ask questions later, they shoot first.
>> and ask questions later. we are living with that.
>> i think psychologically, it kind of reinforces the war between the us and them. unfortunately, the them tend to play loud music , wear hoodies, be of a certain color and live in a certain neighborhood.
>> that's the piece that made it worth talking about at least briefly this morning before we know all of the legal questions. beyond adjudicating this case, there is a question. this is my core fear. for all of us that parent children and have black husbands and have black fathers, this is the core fear for all of us that love black men in this country. it is what michelle obama said about barack obama in 2008 . he could be killed at a gas station .
>> it is not just everyday indignities of being followed around or denied a job. we see it in stop and frisk and racial profiling. we are seeing it, it seems, more now. justifiable homicides are up. psychologically, whether people go into these situations saying i'm going to use my stand by ground law rights. how does that reinforce what they already think in the buys as and the confluence of that.
>> part of this is also related to violence. when young black boys and men die, it tends to be at the hands of other young black men and boys. that also even in our failure to stem that violence, we also then provide more opportunities for thinking of black men and boys in this way. in an interracial con text, that becomes part of that.
>> we forget, black men are the most victimized group in america, not just perpetrators but the victims.
>> thank you to joy and ari and trumani.
>>> women are fighting for the rights of all of us. as we go to break, i'm going to leave you with this. a salute from jacksonville fire and rescue department to jordan davis as the plane carrying his body departed

it still wasnt a good ko. mirko like fell or slipped into it. and it just fell into franks lap. Its not like Franks superior striking set that knee up or anything.
lol its called mma ne thing can happen.. and frank always trys to use that knee did u see the brock lesnar fight he almost got him with that knee and his superior strenght and mind helped him get that ko

Lmao!! No kidding right?! He was already spending that money in his head... Talking about having to give his ex-wife half and all that. I would have liked to get an up close shot of his face at the presser when Dana announced the winners!
And i bet mccorkle made like 10-20k on the fight. That bonus would have been like 4 times the money.
Pretty sure the only reason he didnt get it was because his fight wasnt on the pay per veiw. -
ck1Weak7Sharp | 5Funny | 0Cool | 0
surely it must have gone to BORING bader . i get so bored with these wrestlers. everytime he didnt like the stand up he was literally diving for nog legs and when he got him down he hit like a pussy. i just dont rte bader and a light heavy in top 5 will destroy him. just my view. everyone thinks different and likes different fighters.
DaddyLongStrokesSharp2Weak | 2Funny | 0Cool | 0
Bader did good ground and pound in the 1st round. He was gassing when Lil Nog hit him in the stomach with a knee i believe or a body kick i forget. But Bader with plenty of gas has good ground and pound. Also Bader dove for the legs but used it to just keep Lil Nog guessing and used it to spring up and land a punch. This was a stand up battle so i dont see how wrestling made it boring. Both were respective of each others skillset and thats that.
rflynnSharp3Funny | 0Weak | 0Cool | 0
i do also get bored with watching some wrestlers but i wasnt with bader. when he took the fight to the ground he was looking to do damage during the fight. he was mixing up the strikes but when nog was starting to get te better of the standup he would look for a takedown
however wrestlers like fitch and maynad i would not pay to see. that tactic they use is fight not to lose.
if you dont want to see takedowns or ground game you should watch boxing as the sport is called MIXED martial arts. -
ck1Sharp1Weak | 1Funny | 0Cool | 0
@ rflynn. Of course i accept wrestling is a part of mma. i love this sport, been watching it for a very long time. maybe you and i will disagree with bader but thats fine. we cant all like or rate the same fighters. If he proves me wrong then ill be the 1st to write a comment to you. im not coming on here to argue,i just say what i think and see in the fights and i dont rate him. We will see how he gets on against jones and maybe ill change my mind.
not coming on for an argument either mate i like having a discussion about mma with other fans :)

@daddylong strokes. so you rate bader as a top light heavy? you think he looked good in that fight?
DaddyLongStrokesWeak1Funny | 0Sharp | 0Cool | 0
Yeah Ryan Bader is a top 10 LHW. He looked pretty good in that fight yes. Not a champion but hes still getting better and i dont see how you can deny him as a top LHW....
irishlegsmasherSharp1Funny | 0Weak | 0Cool | 0
of course wrestling played a big part because if you just went on tthe stand up then nogueira wouldve won the decision easily. and baders wrestling completely changed the fight because noguiera was always worried about the shot.

giving beltran and mitrione FOTN was not necessary, their fight doesnt even compete with sherk vs dunham

A lot of fighters get caught up with the glitz and glamour of fighting for the UFC. Their face on tv, sponsorships, hot cars, hotter girls, it seems like the majority of the fighters are in it for the fame. When was the last time we actually saw a fighter that was prideful? Not just humble and polite, I'm talking truly prideful. Was all about the art and technique. Fighters are now trying to milk the point system with wrestling as their crutch. I think the worst example of this was the Koscheck/Daley fight. Koscheck played it extremely safe and if you watch carefully at some parts, I think kos goes from side control and actually jumps into Daley's half guard just to make it see like there is action going on. Stop milking the point system and go out there and win it on your own instead of impressing people to win it for you...
WingChunSharp2Weak | 1Funny | 0Cool | 0
Mir got ripped off.
What difference does it make when the KO comes, what happened before it and whether or not it was delivered by way of knee, fist, elbow, shin or foot?
It's KO of the Night, not Punch of the Night.
For all those that say otherwise - I wonder how many of them would take that fight and victory as their own and then not bitch about getting the bonus. Yes, I can hear them all now...no, Mr. White...Sir...no, I don't expect any bonus, Sir. No, Mr. White...I know I KO'd the #### out of that guy...I hope he's okay...and I know I probably retired his ass...but, no Mr. White, I don't deserve my bonus for laying him out cold, at the end of the fight. Thank you Mr. White for allowing me to exist, fight for this organization and feed my family.
Yes - they'd all be piss'n and moanin' about not getting "their" bonus...for "their" knock out; regardless of when or how it came or how exciting the lead up to it was. -

Everyone here would take the 75k if it was offer no strings attached. Obviously were not dumb. Thats how we were able to discern mir shouldn't have got a bonus.
They were head lining a UFC and put up one of the most boring fights in modern ufc history. why would the ufc reward that.

Chattanooga police responded to a fatal car accident Tuesday night around 8:35 p.m.
The victim, Adam Lee Bailey, 41, was driving his Honda motorcycle on Highway 153 when he crashed into a Dodge Stratus as the car's driver, Samantha J. Stearns, pulled out of a parking lot, according to a news release from the police department.
The crash occurred in the 5400 block of Highway 153.

Stearns, 43, did not suffer any major injuries, police said.
An investigation is continuing.

Steve's observations on dog clothing that he hopes doesn't tick too many people off:
Quick note to dog owners (and I know that means I'm addressing a large percentage of the US population): I love dogs myself, and your dog loves you, but what your dog doesn't like, and never will like, is being dressed up in a frilly sweater or other such clothing item. Those are for baby humans, not canines. A dog's fur is it's clothing, and to put on an additional layer is like wearing coveralls on top of a 3-piece suit. This is really the same principle as my thoughts on kid leashes, but now the humiliation is reversed. No kid wants to wear a leash and no dog wants to wear a stupid sweater with lace around it. Yes, I'm sure you think it makes your little "Sprinkles," "Paw-Paws," or "Doodly-Bug," the cutest thing since the Olsen Twins (clearly, I'm talking about the Full House version of the Olsen twins, when no one even knew that there were actually two of them), but it also makes them a clear target for canine on canine harassment around the neighborhood. You think those other dogs are just barking to say hello, but they're actually saying, "Oh man, I can't wait to bully him and steal his Beggin' Strips." (Those are fake strips of bacon for dogs with a funny name. I can't say Beggin' Stips without chuckling to myself). There's no way that a golden retriever in a mocha colored vest that's encrusted with fake bling will be strong enough to defend his or his owner's turf.

Despite increase of $3 billion in its offshore assets and increase in the cover, premium of Oil and Natural Gas Corporation's (ONGC) offshore package insurance policy has risen marginally by 2% at $25.8 million for assets worth $36.7 billion.
Last year ONGC had paid premium of $25.25 million for covering assets worth $33.7 billion.
State-owned General Insurance Corporation of India (GIC) has emerged as the lead reinsurer and it will be holding 15% of the risk. United India has emerged as the lead insurer and it will be sharing 7% of the risk with remaining three co-insurers – New India Assurance, Oriental Insurance and National Insurance.
Policy for 2012-13 will be renewed on 11 May 2012 by United India Insurance that has remained the lead insurer for several years.
As per United India Insurance, international oil and energy insurance market is a specified market and has not seen any losses and therefore market capacity has increased. It further said, premium is based on the reinsurer's quote and it is in line with international market condition and it is reasonable and it is confident of placing it in the market.
The second lowest (L2) and third lowest (L3) bids submitted by foreign reinsurers were $33 million and $50 million.
ONGC offshore insurance package policy is the country's largest insurance policy covering all offshore assets including all offshore oil-and-gas platforms, pipelines, rigs and vessels. The policy covers risks such as sinking, air-strike, damages due to accidental perils, terrorism, all kinds of man-made disasters and natural calamities such as earthquake, thunder, and storm.
New policy will also allow ONGC to get higher claim amount of $150 million in case of blow out compared to $100 million as blow-out expenses in current policy. ONGC insurance policy has a loss limit cover of $750 million. The limit has remained same for many years; this means for every single property, reinsurers would not pay a claim of more than $750 million even though the property at risk would be high.
According to the insurers, considering the increase in assets of ONGC by $3 billion and additional $50 million in case of blow out, it seems as the reduction in premium.
And it still remains to be seen whether reinsurance market has softened or will react to losses suffered worldwide or not, and it will only be known if ONGC risk is successfully placed abroad.

I have just one day left in India before I begin the long journey home. I have not had a lot of access to the Internet in the past 24 hours, so have only a few links to share. I hear rumors of a blockbuster trade involving my Toronto Blue Jays but, not surprisingly, that has not made the news in India.
Digital Tabletalk [2] - Here's news I'm really glad to hear: Ligonier Ministries' Tabletalk magazine is now available in a digital format. It is on iPad now and will soon be available on other devices.
Does My Temperament Make Me Sad? [3] - "What about the question of temperament? Do 'people who tend to be more thoughtful also tend to be sadder'?" It's a good question. David Powlison takes it on.

Fear-Mongering and Loyalties [5] - Mike Leake: "My point in this article is not really even political. I care little about a discussion on Obama, Romney, or any third-party candidate. What I do care about are those professing to be believers being swept up in worldly fear."

With the return of the Champions League, James Richardson and Goal.com's panel of experts discuss the key talking points at Wembley

Bet: | Returns: | Valencia £12.50 | Draw £55.00 | Granada £120.00 |
Speaking at Wembley alongside James Richardson and Goal.com International football writer Paul Macdonald, Peter said: "The one thing Leonardo and Ancelotti have done well [at PSG] is they've assembled a squad in such a way that they have kept a cohesiveness within the side even though the playing staff has largely been overhauled since the Qatari owners took control of the club.
"In that respect I think that PSG could justifiably in my opinion go all the way, and I think we could be looking at a club who could be at Wembley come May."
When the two teams meet on Tuesday one of the most intriguing battles will be that of the respective side's star strikers, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Roberto Soldado.
While Soldado has scored four goals in this season's Champions League compared to Ibrahimovic's two, Paul Macdonald believes the Sweden international offers more overall.
"Soldado is very important to Valencia, he is the fulcrum to their attack and he has four goals in the Champions League this season. But let's not forget all four goals were against BATE, a very weak team in the group stages," he said.
"I think we need to look beyond Ibrahimovic's goals to see what he brings to PSG. Along with the gravitas and mystique, he also contributed five assists in the group stages, more than any other. Yes, Soldado is important to Valencia but Ibra is one of the key elements to the PSG team and everything flows through him."
Do you agree with Peter's view that PSG could win the Champions League? Will Ibrahimovic be the key player versus Valencia? Let us know your thoughts.

Todd, topped the 72-kilogram senior category, which featured 29 wrestlers. Van Grootel, meanwhile, placed second in the 49 kg schoolboy division and Sandhu posted that same finish in the 59 kg senior class. Van Grootel is a Grade 8 student and Sandhu is in Grade 12.
The Zone 8 high school championships, which will qualify wrestlers for provincials, will be held at PGSS Feb. 15-16.

804.09 Annotation
The responding party also is involved in determining the form of production. In the written response to the production request that Rule 34 requires, the responding party must state the form it intends to use for producing electronically stored information if the requesting party does not specify a form or if the responding party objects to a form that the requesting party specifies. Stating the intended form before the production occurs may permit the parties to identify and seek to resolve disputes before the expense and work of the production occurs. A party that responds to a discovery request by simply producing electronically stored information in a form of its choice, without identifying that form in advance of the production in the response required by Rule 34(b) runs a risk that the requesting party can show that the produced form is not reasonably usable and that it is entitled to production of some or all of the information in an additional form. Additional time might be required to permit a responding party to assess the appropriate form or forms of production.
804.09 Annotation
The option to produce in a reasonably usable form does not mean that a responding party is free to convert electronically stored information from the form in which it is ordinarily maintained to a different form that makes it more difficult or burdensome for the requesting party to use the information efficiently in the litigation. If the responding party ordinarily maintains the information it is producing in a way that makes it searchable by electronic means, the information should not be produced in a form that removes or significantly degrades this feature. [Re Order effective Jan. 1, 2011]

What You Need to Know: New Electronic Discovery Rules. Sankovitz, Grenig & Gleisner. Wis. Law. July 2010.
Physical and mental examination of parties; inspection of medical documents.
When the mental or physical condition, including the blood group or the ability to pursue a vocation, of a party is in issue, the court in which the action is pending may order the party to submit to a physical, mental or vocational examination. The order may be made on motion for cause shown and upon notice to all parties and shall specify the time, place, manner, conditions and scope of the examination and the person or persons by whom it is to be made.
In any action brought to recover damages for personal injuries, the court shall also order the claimant, upon such terms as are just, to give to the other party or any physician named in the order, within a specified time, consent and the right to inspect any X-ray photograph taken in the course of the diagnosis or treatment of the claimant. The court shall also order the claimant to give consent and the right to inspect and copy any hospital, medical or other records and reports that are within the scope of discovery under
804.01 (2)
No evidence obtained by an adverse party by a court-ordered examination under
or inspection under
shall be admitted upon the trial by reference or otherwise unless true copies of all reports prepared pursuant to such examination or inspection and received by such adverse party have been delivered to the other party or attorney not later than 10 days after the reports are received by the adverse party. The party claiming damages shall deliver to the adverse party, in return for copies of reports based on court-ordered examination or inspection, a true copy of all reports of each person who has examined or treated the claimant with respect to the injuries for which damages are claimed.
This subsection applies to examinations made by agreement of the parties, unless the agreement expressly provides otherwise. This subsection does not preclude discovery of a report of an examining physician or the taking of a deposition of the physician in accordance with any other statute.
Upon receipt of written authorization and consent signed by a person who has been the subject of medical care or treatment, or in case of the death of such person, signed by the personal representative or by the beneficiary of an insurance policy on the person's life, the physician or other person having custody of any medical or hospital records or reports concerning such care or treatment, shall forthwith permit the person designated in such authorization to inspect and copy such records and reports. Any person having custody of such records and reports who unreasonably refuses to comply with such authorization shall be liable to the party seeking the records or reports for the reasonable and necessary costs of enforcing the party's right to discover.

804.10 Annotation
Although a personal injury claimant's counsel attended a stipulated independent medical examination without court order or the defendant's knowledge, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to limit cross-examination of the physician since the presence of counsel was not prejudicial and the court order could have been obtained under Whanger guidelines.

The trial court may order a claimant to consent to the release and inspection of health care records and reports of treatment received prior to the claimed injury if the requester shows that the records may reasonably lead to discovery of admissible evidence and the claimant has an opportunity to assert physician-patient privilege.

Requests for admission.
Request for admission.
Except as provided in
, a party may serve upon any other party a written request for the admission, for purposes of the pending action only, of the truth of any matters within the scope of
804.01 (2)
set forth in the request that relate to statements or opinions of fact or of the application of law to fact, including the genuineness of any documents described in the request. Copies of documents shall be served with the request unless they have been or are otherwise furnished or made available for inspection and copying. The request may, without leave of court, be served upon the plaintiff after commencement of the action and upon any other party with or after service of the summons and complaint upon that party.
Each matter of which an admission is requested shall be separately set forth. The matter is admitted unless, within 30 days after service of the request, or within such shorter or longer time as the court may allow, the party to whom the request is directed serves upon the party requesting the admission a written answer or objection addressed to the matter, signed by the party or attorney, but, unless the court shortens the time, a defendant shall not be required to serve answers or objections before the expiration of 45 days after service of the summons and complaint upon the defendant. If objection is made, the reasons therefor shall be stated. The answer shall specifically deny the matter or set forth in detail the reasons why the answering party cannot truthfully admit or deny the matter. A denial shall fairly meet the substance of the requested admission, and when good faith requires that a party qualify an answer or deny only a part of the matter of which an admission is requested, the party shall specify so much of it as is true and qualify or deny the remainder. An answering party may not give lack of information or knowledge as a reason for failure to admit or deny unless the party states that he or she had made reasonable inquiry and that the information known or readily obtainable by the party is insufficient to enable the party to admit or deny. A party who considers that a matter of which an admission has been requested presents a genuine issue for trial may not, on that ground alone, object to the request; the party may, subject to
804.12 (3)
deny the matter or set forth reasons why the party cannot admit or deny it.
The party who has requested the admissions may move to determine the sufficiency of the answers or objections. Unless the court determines that an objection is justified, it shall order that an answer be served. If the court determines that an answer does not comply with this section, it may order either that the matter is admitted or that an amended answer be served. The court may, in lieu of these orders, determine that final disposition of the request be made at a pretrial conference or at a designated time prior to trial.
804.12 (1) (c)
applies to the award of expenses incurred in relation to the motion.
Effect of admission.
Any matter admitted under this section is conclusively established unless the court on motion permits withdrawal or amendment of the admission. The court may permit withdrawal or amendment when the presentation of the merits of the action will be subserved thereby and the party who obtained the admission fails to satisfy the court that withdrawal or amendment will prejudice the party in maintaining the action or defense on the merits. Any admission made by a party under this section is for the purpose of the pending action only and is not an admission for any other purpose nor may it be used against the party in any other proceeding.

804.11 Annotation
A court may permit withdrawal of admissions if both statutory conditions under sub. (2) are met, but it is not required to do so. A court may consider a party's history of discovery abuse when deciding whether to permit withdrawal or amendment of admissions, when determining prejudice under sub. (2) and when otherwise exercising the court's authority to control the orderly and prompt processing of a case. Mucek v. Nationwide Communications, Inc. 2002 WI App 60,
252 Wis. 2d 426
643 N.W.2d 98
804.11 Annotation
The prejudice contemplated by sub. (2) is not simply that a party obtaining the admissions would be worse off without the admissions. Prejudice in maintaining the action or defense on the merits relates to the difficulty a party may face in proving its case, e.g., caused by the unavailability of key witnesses, because of the sudden need to obtain evidence with respect to the questions previously answered by the admissions. The fact that a trial must be adjourned, or that the time for discovery must be enlarged, does not necessarily mean that the non-moving party will suffer prejudice in maintaining the action or defense on the merits. A party will not be prejudiced in maintaining a defense on the merits if they are placed in the same position they would have been in had the admissions not been mistakenly made. Luckett v. Bodner, 2009 WI 68,
318 Wis. 2d 423
769 N.W.2d 504
804.11 Annotation
It is the burden of the party obtaining the admissions to demonstrate that withdrawal or amendment of the admissions will prejudice that party in maintaining their defense on the merits. Under sub. (2), excusable neglect is not a prerequisite for withdrawal or amendment of an admission. A court must consider the effect upon the litigation and prejudice to the resisting party, rather than focusing on the moving party's excuses for an erroneous admission. Luckett v. Bodner, 2009 WI 68,

Requests For Admissions in Wisconsin Civil Procedure: Civil Litigation's Double-Edged Sword. Kinsler. 78 MLR 625.
Failure to make discovery; sanctions.
Motion for order compelling discovery.
A party, upon reasonable notice to other parties and all persons affected thereby, may apply for an order compelling discovery as follows:
If a deponent fails to answer a question propounded or submitted under
, or a corporation or other entity fails to make a designation under
804.05 (2) (e)
804.06 (1)
, or a party fails to answer an interrogatory submitted under
, or if a party, in response to a request for inspection submitted under
, fails to respond that inspection will be permitted as requested or fails to permit inspection as requested, the discovering party may move for an order compelling an answer, or a designation, or an order compelling inspection in accordance with the request. When taking a deposition on oral examination, the proponent of the question may complete or adjourn the examination before he or she applies for an order. If the court denies the motion in whole or in part, it may make such protective order as it would have been empowered to make on a motion made pursuant to
804.01 (3)
Evasive or incomplete answer.
For purposes of this subsection an evasive or incomplete answer is to be treated as a failure to answer.
Award of expenses of motion.
If the motion is granted, the court shall, after opportunity for hearing, require the party or deponent whose conduct necessitated the motion or the party or attorney advising such conduct or both of them to pay to the moving party the reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining the order, including attorney fees, unless the court finds that the opposition to the motion was substantially justified or that other circumstances make an award of expenses unjust.
If the motion is denied, the court shall, after opportunity for hearing, require the moving party or the attorney advising the motion or both of them to pay to the party or deponent who opposed the motion the reasonable expenses incurred in opposing the motion, including attorney fees, unless the court finds that the making of the motion was substantially justified or that other circumstances make an award of expenses unjust.
If the motion is granted in part and denied in part, the court may apportion the reasonable expenses incurred in relation to the motion among the parties and persons in a just manner.
Failure to comply with order.
If a party or an officer, director, or managing agent of a party or a person designated under
804.05 (2) (e)
804.06 (1)
to testify on behalf of a party fails to obey an order to provide or permit discovery, including an order made under
, the court in which the action is pending may make such orders in regard to the failure as are just, and among others the following:
An order that the matters regarding which the order was made or any other designated facts shall be taken to be established for the purposes of the action in accordance with the claim of the party obtaining the order;
An order refusing to allow the disobedient party to support or oppose designated claims or defenses, or prohibiting the disobedient party from introducing designated matters in evidence;
An order striking out pleadings or parts thereof, or staying further proceedings until the order is obeyed, or dismissing the action or proceeding or any part thereof, or rendering a judgment by default against the disobedient party;
In lieu of any of the foregoing orders or in addition thereto, an order treating as a contempt of court the failure to obey any orders except an order to submit to a physical, mental or vocational examination.
In lieu of any of the foregoing orders or in addition thereto, the court shall require the party failing to obey the order or the attorney advising the party or both to pay the reasonable expenses, including attorney fees, caused by the failure, unless the court finds that the failure was substantially justified or that other circumstances make an award of expenses unjust.
Expenses on failure to admit.
If a party fails to admit the genuineness of any document or the truth of any matter as requested under
, and if the party requesting the admissions thereafter proves the genuineness of the document or the truth of the matter, the requesting party may apply to the court for an order requiring the other party to pay the requesting party the reasonable expenses incurred in the making of that proof, including reasonable attorney fees. The court shall make the order unless it finds that (a) the request was held objectionable pursuant to
, or
the admission sought was of no substantial importance, or (c) the party failing to admit had reasonable ground to believe that he or she might prevail on the matter, or (d) there was other good reason for the failure to admit.
Failure of party to attend at own deposition or serve answers to interrogatories or respond to request for inspection or supplement responses.
If a party or an officer, director, or managing agent of a party or a person designated under
804.05 (2) (e)
804.06 (1)
to testify on behalf of a party fails (a) to appear before the officer who is to take the party's deposition, after being served with a proper notice, or (b) to serve answers or objections to interrogatories submitted under
, after proper service of the interrogatories, or (c) to serve a written response to a request for inspection submitted under
, after proper service of the request, or (d) seasonably to supplement or amend a response when obligated to do so under
804.01 (5)
, the court in which the action is pending on motion may make such orders in regard to the failure as are just, and among others, it may take any action authorized under
(2) (a) 1.
In lieu of any order or in addition thereto, the court shall require the party failing to act or the attorney advising the party or both to pay the reasonable expenses, including attorney fees, caused by the failure, unless the court finds that the failure was substantially justified or that other circumstances make an award of expenses unjust. The failure to act described in this subsection may not be excused on the ground that the discovery sought is objectionable unless the party failing to act has applied for a protective order as provided by
804.01 (3)
Failure to provide electronically stored information.
Absent exceptional circumstances, a court may not impose sanctions under these rules on a party for failing to provide electronically stored information lost as a result of the routine, good-faith operation of an electronic information system.
Telephone hearings.
Motions under this section may be heard as prescribed in

804.12 Note
Judicial Council Note, 1988: Sub. (5) [created] allows discovery motions to be heard by telephone conference. [Re Order effective Jan. 1, 1988]
804.12 Note
Judicial Council Note, 2010: Section 804.12 (4m) is taken from F.R.C.P. 37(e). Portions of the Committee Note of the federal Advisory Committee on Civil Rules are pertinent to the scope and purpose of s. 804.12 (4m): The "routine operation" of computer systems includes the alteration and overwriting of information, often without the operator's specific direction or awareness, a feature with no direct counterpart in hard-copy documents. Such features are essential to the operation of electronic information systems.
804.12 Annotation
The rule applies to information lost due to the routine operation of an information system only if the operation was in good faith. Good faith in the routine operation of an information system may involve a party's intervention to modify or suspend certain features of the routine operation to prevent the loss of information, if that information is subject to a preservation obligation. A preservation obligation may arise from many sources, including common law, statutes, regulations, or a court order in the case. The good faith requirement . . . means that a party is not permitted to exploit the routine operation of an information system to thwart discovery obligations by allowing that operation to continue in order to destroy specific stored information that it is required to preserve. When a party is under a duty to preserve information because of pending or reasonably anticipated litigation, intervention in the routine operation of an information system is one aspect of what is often called a "litigation hold." Among the factors that bear on a party's good faith in the routine operation of an information system are the steps the party took to comply with a court order in the case or party agreement requiring preservation of specific electronically stored information.
804.12 Annotation
The protection provided by this rule applies only to sanctions "under these rules." It does not affect other sources of authority to impose sanctions or rules of professional responsibility.
804.12 Annotation
This rule restricts the imposition of "sanctions." It does not prevent a court from making the kinds of adjustments frequently used in managing discovery if a party is unable to provide relevant responsive information. For example, a court could order the responding party to produce an additional witness for deposition, respond to additional interrogatories, or make similar attempts to provide substitutes or alternatives for some or all of the lost information. [Re Order effective Jan. 1, 2011]

If imposed solely for failure to obey a court order, without evidence of bad faith or no merit, sanctions imposed under sub. (2) (a) deny due process. Dubman v. North Shore Bank,

(Ct. App. 1982).
804.12 Annotation
The court exercised proper discretion in dismissing a claim when the claimants failed to provide responsive answers to interrogatories, engaged in dilatory conduct, and there was no justification for their failure to appear and produce documents at depositions.

804.12 Annotation
Counsel's egregious acts may be imputed to the client. Smith v. Golde,
224 Wis. 2d 518
592 N.W.2d 287
(Ct. App. 1998),
804.12 Annotation
If the constitution or statutes require proof before the circuit court can enter a particular judgment or order, the court cannot enter the judgment or order without the appropriate showing. The circuit court may determine that a party's action or inaction provides adequate cause for sanctions against that party, but that does not allow the court to dispense with any constitutional or statutory burden of proof that must be satisfied prior to entering a judgment or order. Evelyn C.R. v. Tykila S. 2001 WI 110,
246 Wis. 2d 1
629 N.W.2d 768
804.12 Annotation
The trial court abused its discretion by ordering the defendant in a civil suit to forego its rights to insurance coverage for punitive damages when the issue of rights to insurance coverage was not before the court. City of West Allis v. WEPCO, 2001 WI App 226,
248 Wis. 2d 10
635 N.W.2d 873
804.12 Annotation
When a sanction causes the ultimate dismissal of an action, the sanctioned party's action must be egregious and without clear and justifiable excuse. Egregiousness is not synonymous with bad faith. A party can be guilty of egregiousness without acting in bad faith or having its counsel act in bad faith. Sentry Insurance v. Davis, 2001 WI App 203,
247 Wis. 2d 501
634 N.W.2d 553
804.12 Annotation
Sub. (4) did not provide authority for prohibiting the moving party, who had not failed to cooperate with discovery, from submitting an affidavit of another party to the action in favor of a motion for summary judgment when the party giving the affidavit had failed to appear for a deposition by a 3rd party in the action. Daughtry v. MPC Systems, Inc. 2004 WI App 70,
272 Wis. 2d 260
679 N.W.2d 806
804.12 Annotation
It is an erroneous exercise of discretion for a circuit court to enter a sanction of dismissal with prejudice, imputing the attorney's conduct to the client, if the client is blameless. Industrial Roofing Services, Inc. v. Marquardt, 2007 WI 19,
299 Wis. 2d 81
726 N.W.2d 898
804.12 Annotation
There is no requirement that conduct must be persistent in order to be egregious. When a defendant in a medical malpractice case destroyed all of his medical records in a single act, the magnitude of the loss under the circumstances was sufficient to constitute egregious conduct. Morrison v. Rankin, 2007 WI App 186,
305 Wis. 2d 240
738 N.W.2d 588
804.12 Annotation
It lies within the circuit court's discretion to determine the appropriate procedure for deciding factual issues in default judgment cases and that the defaulting party therefore has no right of trial by jury. The circuit court did not violate the defendant's right of trial by jury under Art. I, s. 5 when it denied the defendant's motion for a jury trial on the issue of damages. The defendant waived its right of trial by jury in the manner set forth in ss. 804.12 and 806.02 by violating the circuit court's discovery order and by incurring a judgment by default. Rao v. WMA Securities, Inc. 2008 WI 73,

Energy Rate and Efficiency Comparison
Thursday, May 9th, 2013Depending on where you live in the United States, you'll see that your electricity and energy rates will fluctuate. Electricity providers calculate your energy usage and electricity prices by kilowatt usage, meaning that how much you pay is dependent on how many cents it costs per kilowatt for whatever provider you use.
