Experts Debate Two-Year Law School OptionThe National Law Journal 2013-01-22 00:00:00.0 A proposal to allow students to take the New York Bar Exam after two years of law school has piqued the interest of the state's chief judge, Jonathan Lippman (See Profile). Lippman stopped short of formally endorsing the idea when it was taken out for a public airing on Jan. 18 at New York University School of Law. But he told the more than 100 gathered legal educators, practitioners and judges that the concept deserves serious study. "I don't think there is anyone on a law school faculty or on the bench who would say, 'This is crazy,'" said Lippman, who oversees the state's court system. The proposal, he said, "challenges all of us involved in legal education to, whatever the length of law school, look at how we can do better." Rising law graduate debt and "the lousy job market" have brought legal education to a crossroads, Lippman said. "I don't know the answer, but I can say that we want to hear more. This is a fascinating subject." The concept of doing away with the third year of law school, or at least making it optional, has been around for decades but has never gone much beyond discussion. Samuel Estreicher, an NYU law professor and of counsel to Paul Hastings, recently revisited the topic in an academic article titled, "The Roosevelt-Cardozo Way: The Case for Bar Eligibility After Two Years of Law School," in the New York University Journal of Legislation and Public Policy. (The title refers to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and U.S. Supreme Court Justice Benjamin Cardozo, both of whom studied the law at a time when two years was the norm.) Estreicher argues that making the third year optional would reduce the cost of attendance by one third, while giving law schools incentive to experiment with their third year curricula. If students don't see value in that final year, they could take the bar exam instead and law schools would surrender the final year of tuition. "This is not about the fate of the third year; this is about choice," Estreicher said. "Law students shouldn't have the force of the state saying, 'You've got to complete a third year.' Let's not make it a one-size-fits-all." Under Estreicher's proposal, students who take the bar exam after two years would not obtain a J.D., but would be eligible for a bar card. (The American Bar Association's law school accreditation standards require students to complete at least 83 credits; Estreicher would establish New York bar exam eligibility upon the completion of 60 credits.) Some practitioners and legal educators at the meeting said they liked Estreicher's proposal in theory but doubted that many students would pursue the option. John Barrett, a professor at St. John's University School of Law, noted that only a handful of people take advantage of New York's law apprentice program, which allows candidates to sit for the bar exam after one year of law school plus several years of a closely supervised legal apprenticeship. "Two years might well be enough law school, and it certainly would reduce the cost for students," Barrett said. "I'm skeptical that it would be much utilized, and thus it's a low-risk proposal." But Brian Tamanaha, a professor at Washington University in St. Louis School of Law, said many students would skip the 3L year, which would create huge financial losses for law schools. "Law schools will respond in ways intended to produce more revenue," he warned, possibly bringing in large 1L classes to make up for lost revenue. Some legal educators warned that the two-year option would create a stratified bar, with two-year students going on to serve lower-income clients and the three-year group taking higher-paying law firm jobs. Large firms might prove reluctant, they argue, to hire students who lack J.D.s. Zachary Fasman, a partner in Paul Hastings' employment law department, described a mixed reaction from colleagues on that point. However, firms might hire two-year lawyers as apprentices, he said, paying them less than first-year associates and billing for their work at lower rates. As it stands, firms already spend considerable time and money training associates who have spent three years in law school. "That would be great," Fasman said. "That's a win-win if I ever heard one." Some legal academics have wondered how much sense Estreicher's proposal makes when employers are demanding more practical skills and real-world experience of recent graduates. However, Joy Radice, professor at University of Tennessee College of Law argued that the option would help break down the wall between traditional doctrinal classes and practical skills courses. The latter typically are relegated to the second or third years. Audience members weighed in both for and against the idea. Aikta Wahi, a 2011 NYU Law graduate, said that the small firms and public interest organizations she wanted to work for lacked the time or resources to train new attorneys. Spending two years in school followed by a third year of real-world training with little or no pay might have made her more marketable, she said. Professor Stephen Gillers of NYU urged Lippman to proceed with caution, but Randall Milch, general counsel at Verizon Communications Inc., said there is danger in delay. "Analysis paralysis is our worst enemy here," he said. "If we are going to overanalyze, we're never going to figure this out. In my opinion, we have to move and see what happens." Professor Stephen Sheppard of the University of Arkansas School of Law said he thought the panel was stacked with supporters of the two-year option. He argued in a letter to Lippman that the 3L year allows students to take advanced courses and participate in extracurricular activities, including law journals. "Market pressures and a race to the bottom in legal preparation would erode what consumer protection for clients the law degree now assures," he wrote. Judge Victoria Graffeo (See Profile) of the New York Court of Appeals told the audience that she wants to hear more. "We are very pleased to be here and I think it's a most interesting discussion," she said. "There is more we need to look at and investigate." @|Karen Sloan, a reporter for The National Law Journal, an affiliate, can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

We Are Pawns in Obama's Fiscal Cliff Game
Politicians playing chicken not only with people's jobs and livelihoods, but their mental and, quite possibly as a result, physical well-being.
It angers me.
This isn't the NHL lockout where the two sides can play "politics," stall and stalemate in a battle of egos.
The impact of something as relatively insignificant as a hockey work stoppage drives home the magnitude of what the fiscal cliff can do to Americans -- and people around the globe -- even if we never jump off of it.
With no hockey, middle-of-the-road wage earners get hurt.
In the grand scheme of things, it's not that big of a deal if Molson Coors (TAP) sees a decline in Canadian revenue.
However, don't tell that to the guy who works at a brewery in St. Johns, Newfoundland or Moncton, New Brunswick. The guy who might lose his job -- and if he lived in the United States, his health insurance -- when Molson Coors reduces staff.
As usual, Twitter broadcasts opinions and fuels emotion. One of TheStreet's Real Money contributors, Kate Stalter and CNBC personality Carl Quintanilla posted pretty simple, but effective Tweets. Both go a long way to explaining this spectacle.
It is very Y2K, in that it will likely end up being all of this for nothing. But, with Y2K, like a hockey lockout, it didn't matter quite as much to nearly as many people.
No hockey, we buy less beer.
No Y2K, no problem. You have a few extra cans of beans in your pantry. If you're really extreme, you bought some special computer software, unplugged your VCR and maybe built a bunker in the background.
But this fiscal cliff is real.

Why was Galileo unable to defend himself?By numbers I meant proofs and anything logical in nature. He had brought up some major points, that were scientific in nature, while arguing for Copernicus. I'm not too familiar with the entire trial, but I was getting at the idea that he couldn't expect to go into that trial and say here is the logic and reasoning behind my notions, I'll be on my way. |

It is worth bearing in mind that the Earth-centric, epicyclic model was capable of giving good agreement with observation and could, in principle, be refined to give more exact agreement. |
Jan23-13, 06:33 PM | #20 |
Who knows what the motivation for persecuting him was. Different members of the church had different views on celestial mechanics - a Copernican model, a Ptolemaic model, and Tycho Brahe's model (that said the Sun and Moon orbited the Earth, while the planets orbited the Sun). There were legitimate arguments for and against each at the time, but the arguments tended to be as much personal attacks on people holding opposing view points as they were logical discussions. In any event, the actual offense Galileo was found guilty of wasn't as important as finding him guilty of something, with his advocacy of the Copernican model being only one of his offenses. Defending himself with physical evidence or logic really would have been inadequate for his era. He really needed his allies to mount more substantial personal attacks on his enemies and that involved risk. Personal attacks were not only decided by reputation, but winning these helped a person's reputation while losing these damaged a person's reputation. It wasn't an age dominated by science. |

This argument was personally introduced to Galileo by Pope Urban VIII himself. As you can probably tell, the Pope no longer felt too inclined to defend Galileo. Thus the persecution. The lesson for today is that it all comes down to who you know, and how well you treat them |

NEW YORK (AP) — Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Tuesday that he "didn't even bother" to read a report by city-hired consultants that found New York's recently-overhauled 911 system is plagued by delays and errors.
Bloomberg appeared to simultaneously criticize and give credence to the $500,000 report as he answered reporters' questions Tuesday. The report found that flawed procedures used by emergency operators could be leaving callers without help for crucial seconds, and it identified areas in which fire and police officials weren't collaborating adequately.
"We take it very seriously," the mayor said, explaining that his administration is examining all of the consultants' recommendations — including a suggestion that the city begin timing its emergency-response times from the moment a 911 call is placed.
But the mayor also seemed to question the accuracy of the report's findings and the motives behind it — saying, "They can make up anything they want to say."
When asked by a reporter whether he was saying he thought aspects of the report were wrong, he said, "I didn't say that. I didn't even bother to read it."
The consultants examined operations at a new $680 million call center that combined the previously-separate operations of police, fire and medical dispatchers — a project that was delayed by problems with the technology being developed for the city by contractors. The new center is part of an ongoing $2 billion overhaul of the system that includes the construction of a second backup center.
Last week, Deputy Mayor for Operations Cas Holloway said the years-long development of the first call center had focused largely on changes to technology and infrastructure — while focusing less on changes to training and procedures for staffers, such as those suggested in the report. Many of those changes can be accomplished without further raising the budget of the project, he said.
On Tuesday, the mayor argued that the city's emergency response system is the strongest it's ever been, with fire deaths at the lowest level ever. City officials have said that a working group will be created to evaluate the report's recommendations. Bloomberg said that some of the other recommendations could be adopted soon, while others "are things you'd like to do someday if you can get to it."
While the report targeted areas in which the fire and police departments failed to collaborate, Bloomberg said the two agencies "are working well together."
"Getting two agencies, police and fire, with an enormous history of pride and a belief that they can do everything — getting them to work together was one of the great accomplishments here," he said.
According to the report, the two agencies aren't collaborating on how to handle a surge in calls from a massive crisis such as a terrorist attack, and the fire department's emergency medical managers weren't involved in developing procedures for police operators who now handle medical calls.
The consultants also found that call operators waste time on duplicative questions and employ inconsistent questioning procedures. The 911 system sends some responders to the wrong address and slows fire and medical dispatchers' efforts to give instructions to callers, the report said.
The administration's lawyers have been fighting legal efforts by firefighters unions to force it to release earlier versions of the report. The city handed out a 133-page edited copy on Friday, but when the New York Post first wrote about it last month, it described a 216-page document.
The Uniformed Firefighters Association believes changes that accompanied the overhaul caused delays that are being hidden by changes in how the city records response times. The city contends that combining police and fire operations has reduced confusion for callers and means people in an emergency are no longer required to repeat the same information to many people.

I was at the Plainview Cemetery & Memorial Park today requesting that a young tree that died a couple of years ago at our ancestor's site be cut down. They really need permission to do these types of things. I got to visit with the new (2009) cemetery manager, Bill, and was very pleased with all that he and his staff have done and are still accomplishing! I'm excited to say that we will be getting a historical marker representing the entire property, north, south, east and west. Not only that, the manager is leading in the building of the Norman Dulaney War Memorial plaza (NDWM) on the northwest land. Here is a rendering:
The names on the towers will be divided by war and then by the arm/branch of the military served by the deceased individuals buried in the Plainview Cemetery and Memorial Park. Currently there are approximately 2000 individual's names that will be placed on the towers. As other veterans are buried in the cemetery, their names would be added on a quarterly basis. We can never honor our military enough to pay them back for their service to our country. So, we can pay it forward by helping with the construction of this 'Plaza'. You will start hearing more about this in the near future. What a wonderful addition to Plainview Cemetery and Memorial Park this will be. There will be public and private contribution levels. If you are interested in donating to the NDWMyou may contact the Plainview Cemetery Association office @ 806.293.4555 and they will instruct you and give you further information.

Q is for Quality and Quantity. No, it isn't a long-lost Beatles track. It refers to the two reasons why I believe the Beatles are still influencing pop music and pop culture at large, nearly 50 years on. First off, almost all of the Beatles albums contain hit after hit after hit. Each new album expanded on the last. They didn't simply rest on what they'd already accomplished. They kept on innovating. Check out the first track below. It sounds like it came out of the 1980s. Nope. Off of Sgt. Pepper 1968. While they kept on innovating, they also kept up the quality. They had standards and really didn't put their label on much filler.
Also, since I'm on Q, I couldn't help but bring up Queen Elizabeth II. They Beatles were children when she became queen in 1952. I never fully understood why Paul felt it necessary to write and record this riff, originally intended for the medley on Abbey Road. Well, it turns out, like many preteen/teenage boys, the Beatles appreciated a beautiful young woman. It is so easy to forget Queen Elizabeth II was only in her 20s when she came to the throne.

Blogging light this week
A long awaited opportunity to complete a project (at company expense, no less) has arisen and I'm taking it. The catch: absolutely no Net contact until it's done, so I'll be back on-line Thursday night. If I may be so bold to suggest, check out the links on the right side of this page.
For national politics and news discussions, hit Power Line, Captain's Quarters, Hugh Hewitt and Michelle Malkin.
For a lot of that and also interesting stuff in the arenas of technology, law, and such a cornucopia of culture I can't list everything, see the incomparable Instapundit.
Want a more military view? You want Blackfive, Smash, Mudville, Sgt. Hook, and Confederate Yankee.
Want to see more of what's really going on in Iraq? From people who are (or were) actually embedded with the troops instead of hanging around poolside in the Green Zone? Go see Michael Yon and INDC Journal.
Finally, for items of note near and dear to the Old Dominion, you need to see Too Conservative, Virginia Virtuacon, Black Velvet Bruce Li, Q and O, and Not Larry Sabato. (Oh, and hit Bacon's Rebellion, too. I just haven't managed to get him onto my blogroll.)
Have a good one and I'll talk with you on the other side.

does the seat pivot?
By Willie
from Georgia
About Me Master Gardener
Comments about One Stop Gardens Rolling Work Seat with Tool Tray:
I was given this by my sons. It replaced a plastic one I had used for years but always wished the wheels/tires were larger. Is mine put together incorrectly or does the seat not pivot?It is a bit difficult for me to get my legs over the tires when seated and trying to bend over to pull weeds.

About Me Getting Started
I bought mine because I had a lot of welding to do down low on a john deer weed mower. Bending down for long periods killed my back. This seat made the job a piece of cake. Now we use the seat in front of the computer as it rolls easly on the carpet and fits right under the desk.

from Undisclosed
I have been through so many wheeled stools and this is the best! Don't bother with cheap plastic, I did, they don't last. This stool has great tires that do not bog down in the mud! Trust me, it is costly but so worth it!

Great concept
By C. Brooks
The only think I don't like is that it doesn't turn. Pivoting wheels would be nice. Over all it is a great seat. Tires are big and don't get stuck in the garden, moves freely. Making a cusion for the seat.

A Life saver
By Fatboy
from Metairie, LA
About Me Avid Gardener
I use the work seat all over my yard. I drilled (3) 3/8 holes in plastic tray to stop water retention and a rope with a 1'dole rod about 12' long handel an each end to pull it so I can move it about easliy so I can quickly move it place to place. (I can walk with a cane but can't stand for any lenght of time) Using this product has helped me to stay active in my yard and in my 32'x20' vegtable garden. Without it I don't know if I could have continued doing some of the things I love. I have already recommended it to my brother and my brother-in-law.
Weak Welds where seat mounts!
By jamesbtex
from Plano, TX
They really need to use a much stronger weld.Was bending over seating down and heard a pop. The seat mounting weld broke free from the metal seat rendering the cart useless. HF replaced the seat for us. This seat is wide but the weld needs to be much bigger and stronger.

Did you know?
In the 2013 U.S. News and World Report rankings, Curry's Education Psychology: Applied Developmental Science program was ranked seventeenth best in the nation.
Did you know?
In the 2013 U.S. News and World Report rankings, Curry's Education Psychology: Applied Developmental Science program was ranked seventeenth best in the nation.
"I became interested in the EP-ADS program because the work that was begin conducted by my mentor was in concert with my research interests and because of the interdisciplinary curriculum it offers its students. I realized it was the right program for me when I visited UVA during an internship and found that the people of Curry created a group dynamic that was unlike any other graduate program I visited; it was a community that was driven, structured, and supportive. I knew it was definitely an environment that I wanted to be in."
"I was definitely drawn to EP-ADS by the amazing work that my advisor was conducting. Also, the apprenticeship model that this program follows provides invaluable opportunities to acquire hands-on experience in academia (i.e. publications, grant writing, etc.)."
"I came to this program hoping to better understand how teacher's preservice and professional development experiences contribute to their effectiveness and psychosocial functioning in the classroom. The interdisciplinary nature of this program and its rigorous training in research methodology makes it an ideal academic environment in which to develop the skills needed to answer such questions."
The Educational Psychology and Applied Developmental Science (EP-ADS) doctoral program prepares promising students to conduct research in education science. The program focuses on the social and cognitive lives of children and adolescents, the contribution of school and out-of-school settings on learning and development, and the development and evaluation of interventions designed to alter and improve developmental pathways.
Limited English proficiency, poverty, inadequate access to social supports and health care, and the presence of developmental or acquired disabilities pose significant challenge to children and youth and prevent their success in school and life. The EP-ADS program takes a strengths-based approach to understanding such complex challenges to society. Research conducted in EP-ADS examines the ways in which school settings, after-school programs, and families hold the potential to promote resilience and reduce school failure.
Our doctoral program trains promising scholars with interests in school, classrooms, and other youth settings as contexts critical to child and adolescent development. Research opportunities are available in relation to teacher professional development and teacher effects, preschool classroom quality, English Language Learners in early childhood, social and emotional learning interventions, youths' perception of stigma, students' engagement in mathematics, teenage girls and mathematics, early childhood classroom quality, peer-mentoring programs, and positive youth development programs.
The Curry School of Education has several key, educationally-relevant research opportunities available.

Second English study session
Yesteday we had the second session of the concept of "professionals learn English and Ten learns go". Practically the setting is that I am presenting some of my (insei or otherwise) games on a board in a classroom in the Nihon Ki-in, with about six or seven professionals present on average, and the professionals attempt to comment the games in English. This time, the strongest professional present was 7 dan. The concept is courtesy of Kobayashi Chizu sensei.
Yesterday, before delving deeper into the game of the day, we recapped some important basic terms related to go. Kobayashi-sensei wasn't present, so if it wasn't for Simon's assistance, I would have been on my own for the English teaching part. Simon did indeed a great job in assisting me, helping me with a lot of translations, and writing the English terms up on a whiteboard for the professionals to take notes of. At the beginning of the study session, I was initially slightly lost at how to take charge of everything, so I quite randomly took the English words for parts of the go board as the first content of the day: 隅=すみ=sumi=corner, 辺=へん=hen=side (upper/top, lower/bottom, left, right), 中央=ちゅうおう=chuuou=centre.
The English terms seemed to be new for most of the "students", so it turned out to be good opening practice. I was quite strict on the words' pronunciation, due to the fact that in Japanese, people sometimes use the Japanglish words of コーナー ("koonaa", corner) and センター ("sentaa", center). Apart from the *er sound, there's not a real difference. We then started with the game review, and also recapped terms like connection, cut, extension, jump, et cetera. I'm not sure this whole studying concept provides for even-handed learning for all parties; the professionals are only learning English, while aside from go technique, I'm also learning Japanese! And for some reason, I still seem to hold the teacher's role.

Letters to the editor
Cell phones and Driving
Dec 31, 2012 / 12:23 am
On Wednesday (Dec. 19) I was crossing Enterprise at Hardy around 2 p.m. A woman driving an SUV while talking on her cell was turning right onto Enterprise and failed to notice that I (the pedestrian) had the right of way to cross when the signal came on. She almost ran me over. I had my hand up trying to get her to notice me, but to no prevail/she was looking to the left side and talking on a cell phone and if I did not stop and let her go ahead, she would have run me over.
The car behind her was also not going to let me cross the road either, I made eye contact to him and put up my hand, he would have also done the same as the woman.
What did we do before the invention of car phones way back in the 80s? I ride the bus to and from work and I can see inside the cars and trucks and a lot more people are texting and talking on phones than you can belive.
I would like it to be illegal the same as drinking and driving is, with licenses taken away and charges laid to the abusers.
People are not going to stop unless there are stricter punishments. Although drinkers abuse the laws, there will probably be cell phone abusers too. But a lot of accidents can be avoided if we get rid of cell phones from cars.

What is a Citizens' Summary?
You want to know more about European Commission initiatives, but find information often difficult to read and understand. You need simple and clear words to explain new actions. The layperson's summaries published on this page will help you to understand and make up your mind about what is going on, even if you have no specific background knowledge on the subject matter.
These summaries are written in parallel with the ongoing process of adoption to give you early information about the start of a new EU discussion. Therefore, when reading this first presentation of the Commission proposal please keep in mind that the process is far from finished. Once the Commission has made its proposal, many other actors at EU and national level will be called upon to have their say, before it effects you as a European citizen. Therefore, please take this as a first piece of information and check it out later, when it is upgraded in the light of the final text.

For Women Who Want The Ballerific Life!
*winks at l8dy-c* I hear you, playa! @Sheli, that would explain a lot. $picey, lol bfuj did already lay this out for everyone didn't he? lol Thanks for the reminder.
l8dy-c said:
Girl trust me I have my own motives.Like I said everything people do has a selfish motive. I don't know if he needs all that help, support blah, blah, blah. It's actually contructive selfishness. This honest form of selfishness is to give ourselves so that we in turn, can broaden our understanding and confidence. Sometimes the richest rewards come from helping others with no thought of reward. I was in a similar situation and he was there for me.Jus sayin
CCDreamin' of a baller for me said:Wow! I would be so insulted right now in your shoes. He called up just to get a hit of azz or set you up to be the jump off and you're going to be a supportive ear for him anyway. I really am in awe of you right now.
My jaded behind would be telling him I need some ish and take me shopping. We can talk while I shop. Then I'd take my azz home to my man and chill. Leaving him with blue balls. Therapists get paid too. lol Please pay me zero mind. That's just how I think when I am insulted.
l8dy-c said:Yeah we are gonna hook up later at a local bar. It's funny because I never believe that sh*t when a guy calls outta no where with that "I'm not happy talk, I'm leaving and this stuff gets old talk, I'm willing to go ahead and wrap if up soon. I'm like why didn't you call when everything was cool? Well at least if he moves we can still stay connected, he is a sweetheart tho. He was there for me in the past so, I can't don't want to be that girl that's too judgmental.Its it said that everything people do has a selfish motive.So, I'll offer reassurance , comfort, and personal concern and that's it.
Love is a Losing Game said:Tell him to break it off with the girl since he's moving soon anyway, and see whayhe says. Lol I'm sure he won't break up even tho 'things are soooooo bad' lol. And I think he hit u wit the 'I'm moving' thing so he can get some sympathy, oh I miss u' cooch! Lol boy I tell ya....these games
What CC said x's 1000!
I won't mess up my current situation for an ex! He is an ex for a reason
Got Dammit this story sounds familar. Lol. I heard from my ex and I thought we were friends he came back for the summer and we messed around and well we all know how that turned out!!!! Don't fall for the hype girl!!! Lol

Symphony set to "soireé"
By Guy Stephens
Rockford, IL – Rockford's "On The Waterfront" typically kicks off with a major concert the day before the festival officially begins. This year, it's Cheap Trick and Alice Cooper on Thursday night. Festival organizers are trying something a little different, though: the music starts a day earlier, and for the first time, it's CLASSICAL. The Rockford Symphony Orchestra performs outdoors, Ravinia-style, tomorrow night at Davis Park. WNIJ's Guy Stephens spoke with the symphony's artistic director, Steven Larsen about the "Waterfront Symphony Soireé."

The Republican race for governor has gone on now for the better part of a year. We pretty much knew what Kevin Smith and Ovide Lamontagne would likely say day-by-day. However, what we didn't know is who else would join the race. In the end, no other major candidate did.
Since June, this pair has debated five times. If anyone wanted to say something about the other, they likely would have said it by now. The WMUR/Union Leader Granite State Debate on Thursday night is the only televised debate in this race, and it is possible that the candidates could save their best stuff for tonight.
This race features the same dynamic from when it first started, and there is little reason to believe the race will suddenly change after the debate. Lamontagne has dominated basically every metric in this race. He has hundreds more endorsements -- including that of two former governors, a congressman, a former U.S. senator, eight of 10 county sheriffs, most of the Republican state Senate, the Senate president and more than half of the New Hampshire House Republican Caucus. He has raised more than any candidate, Republican or Democrat, who is running for governor this year. Polls show that Lamontagne is the best known in this race so far.
Yet, precisely because he is expected to easily beat Smith, Lamontagne is the one with the pressure heading into the debate. He will have to walk a fine line of staying true to himself and presenting himself as someone who New Hampshire voters will be comfortable with as their next governor. If he says the wrong thing during the hour or comes across as an extreme partisan, Democrats will pounce.
The 35-year-old Kevin Smith is a political rising star who gets credit in some circles for having the guts to even trying to take out Lamontagne. Smith will have to figure out whether he wants to challenge Lamontagne hard tonight or where he will just use the hour as an infomerical for himself and his brand of politics. Because of that decision, Smith controls the tone in this debate. Barring some career-ending moment for Lamontange, Smith will likely lose next week. Lamontagne could take his spot at the podium and tell Smith that when it comes to defeat, "We can do this the easy way or the hard way, and it is your choice."
If Smith decides to play nice, we'll know relatively early in the debate.
An important thing to note tonight is that there will be two rounds of candidate-to-candidate questions. While Smith knows what he is asking, one can assume that Lamontagne is carrying two sets of questions in his suit jacket. One set will be nice questions asking Smith if he agrees that the Democratic candidates stink. The other will be something along the lines of, "Kevin, when you served a single term as a state representative when you were like 21, did you sponsor any major piece of legislation?"
Here are the items that the audience should be looking for tonight and the factors that I will look at to form my my post-debate grades:
Kevin Smith
1. Does he look and sound like the next governor?

Is it that life interferes with creativity? That's a big part of writers' block—at least it is with me. A sick baby…a significant other with an issue that demands more TLC than usual…an adult child with a problem that's a lot harder to fix than the scraped knee he got on his first fall off a two-wheeler. The possibilities for life intruding are endless and almost impossible to ignore.
Sometimes it's not life but my story that stalls out. My hero doesn't want to do what I planned for him, or my heroine comes across as too stupid to live when she reacts to him in a way that pushes along the story line. I try to force the story along until I give up and let it go in a different but maybe not a better direction.
When my writing stalls out, that's when I (the world's worst housekeeper) decide my office needs rearranging or my windows suddenly require cleaning. Or maybe I (an indifferent cook at best) conclude that if I succeed in making that cheesecake that requires the use of every small electric appliance and specialty kitchen gadget I own, my writing block will miraculously disappear. (It doesn't—I just get frustrated when I discover somebody drank the Grand Marnier I was saving just for this recipe.)
So what's the cure for writers' block? I can't turn off life, my story won't fix itself, and the distractions I create only last a little while and create physical exhaustion to go with the brain inertia I was trying to heal.
Sometimes a brainstorming session with a fellow author/friend helps. It's amazing how a second, fresh take on a problem makes it somehow become surmountable. Other tricks I've used with some success include making a change of venue—that is, moving my writing out of the confines of my office onto the patio or into a quiet, serene park away from home. Before gas went to $4 a gallon, I used to take long, scenic rides in my car, having aimless mental conversations with recalcitrant characters and imagining how they'd react to what I was looking at.
I've also done what I'm doing now, LOL: avoiding that ominous, blank monitor syndrome by writing a blog entry. At least it's a little bit productive—I think!
How do you combat writers' block? I'm anxious to hear other takes on the subject, before I drive myself crazy. Along with my eternal gratitude, I'll donate a download, any of my published stories the winner may want, for the comment that works best for me. (Winner to be announced on this blog on May 1, 2012, or whenever I finish LOVERS' FEUD, whichever comes first.)

Effects of seed addition on beetle assemblages during the re-creation of species-rich lowland hay meadows
Woodcock, Ben A.; Westbury, Duncan B.; Brook, Alex J.; Lawson, Clare S.; Edwards, Andrew R.; Harris, Stephanie J.; Heard, Matthew S.; Brown, Valerie K.; Mortimer, Simon R.. 2012 Effects of seed addition on beetle assemblages during the re-creation of species-rich lowland hay meadows. Insect Conservation and Diversity, 5 (1). 19-26. 10.1111/j.1752-4598.2011.00132.x
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract/Summary
1. Species-rich lowland hay meadows are of conservation importance for both plants and invertebrates; however, they have declined in area across Europe as a result of conversion to other land uses and management intensification. The re-creation of these grasslands on ex-arable land provides a valuable approach to increasing the extent and conservation value of this threatened habitat. 2. Over a 3-year period a replicated block design was used to test whether introducing seeds promoted the re-creation of both plant and phytophagous beetle assemblages typical of a target hay meadow. Seeds were harvested from local hay meadows, and applied to experimental plots in the form of either green hay or brush harvesting seeds. 3. Green hay spreading achieved the greatest success in re-creating plant and phytophagous beetle assemblages. While re-creation success increased over time for both taxa, for the phytophagous beetles the greatest increase in re-creation success relative to the establishment year also occurred where green hay was applied. We also considered the phytophagous beetles in terms of functional traits that describe host plant specificity, larval feeding location and dispersal. Phytophagous beetle functional trait composition was most similar to the target hay meadow assemblage where some form of seed addition was used, i.e. hay spreading or brush harvested seeds. 4. This study identified the importance of introducing target plant species as a mechanism to promote the re-creation of phytophagous beetle communities. Seed addition methods (e.g. green hay spreading) are crucial to successful hay meadow re-creation

Comments about Suunto MCB Amphibian Compass:
I left this home once and got lost when the map wasn't accurate. Never again! Has saved my butt quite a few times. A good compass is worth its weight, and this compass is a good one. Whenever I go on an adventure, this goes with me and I always get home.
Best Uses
Comments about Suunto MCB Amphibian Compass:
My sunscreen leaked in my backpack, and when I wiped it off this compass, the markings on the clear plastic came right off. It was just regular, name-brand sunscreen, but apparently it was enough to dissolve the markings.I guess it worked pretty well up to that point.
Best Uses
Comments about Suunto MCB Amphibian Compass:
This compass would not be a bad one to give to a child for learning compass skills. But that's about as far as it goes. The declination can't be locked, and the compass itself isn't fluid-filled. Plus, the case isn't hinged--the plastic bends to close the compass. So, the top is likely to separate sooner, rather than later. If you want a mirror compass, step up to one of the mid-priced units that REI sells. They are far better suited for back country use.

Local trust company steps up to sponsor the Itex-Rotary walks
Walkers in the 2012 Itex-Rotary walks will be doing it in style thanks to the generous sponsorship of the t-shirts by Jersey Trust Company Group (JTC).
Around 2,000 t-shirts have been ordered for the walks in Guernsey and Jersey and will be distributed to all walkers and helpers. JTC Group has agreed to cover the cost of the production and printing of the shirts which boast a bespoke design – specially designed for the occasion. JTC Director, Marketing & Communication, Sarah Madel explains why the Group has got involved with the walks – which have now become major community events in both islands:
"JTC Group is delighted to be supporting the 2012 Itex-Rotary Around the Island walks as both events provide vital support for local charities within Jersey and Guernsey – two of JTC's nine office locations. The t-shirt slogan reads 'Stepping out on a BIG adventure' which also very much ties in with our own on-going international expansion plans, as well as highlighting the walkers' achievement."
The walks which are on 9 June (Guernsey) and 23 June (Jersey) raise significant funds for worthwhile causes in the Channel Islands and organisers hope that this year will be no exception. The events rely heavily on support received from individuals and businesses alike:
"Without the involvement of our corporate sponsors the events just couldn't take place" explains Richard Parker, Chairman of the Guernsey walk committee.
"We are fortunate enough to have sponsors and volunteers for each checkpoint and to have secured funding to cover the T shirt cost makes a huge difference – ensuring that all monies raised go directly to the selected charities. We are extremely grateful to JTC Group for their support".
Registration for the walks closes soon but there is still time. And both islands' walks offer shorter options for those who don't wish to tackle the onerous 48 (Jersey) and 39 (Guernsey) mile routes. The Lieutenant Governor's walk in Jersey incorporates around a quarter of the whole route, and for Guernsey walkers there is the option of entering a team to cover the route in relay fashion – no limit to the numbers in the team so people can walk a section in pairs or small groups.
All information and registration instructions can be found at www.itexwalk.gg (Guernsey) and www.itexwalk.je (Jersey)
