Training Requirements – Enhancement
Sep 2nd, 2009 by admin
As most of you know, Training Manager allows you to configure required training for your personnel. In previous versions of Training Manager, these requirements were enforced "Immediately" meaning that as soon as you added a new employee to the database and assigned them to one of the Groups or Job Roles with assignments, they would immediately show up as "Overdue" on the status reports unless they had completed the training already.
Many of you contacted us and requested an option to define a "grace period" for new hires in order to give them a reasonable amount of time to complete the training before it would appear "Overdue" on the status reports. I'm happy to announce that this option is now available in the current version of Training Manager.
Now you may set the "Initial Training Due Date" when adding an Assignment as shown in this example:
As you can see, the initial training is due "By Hire Date + 30 Days". The training status for the first 30 days will no longer appear as "Overdue". Instead, it will appear as "Untrained" if it hasn't been completed during the first 30 days. This lets you know that the training is required, but it is still within the grace period. The status will change to "Overdue" if it hasn't been completed after 30 days, otherwise, it will change to "Up to date" after it has been completed.
We hope this feature will help to make the status reports more useful for your organization. Thanks to everyone who provided the feedback leading up to this enhancement.
Website Fail-Over In Place
Jul 10th, 2009 by admin
The kzsoftware.com website was down for 3 hours last week due to a power outage at the data center hosting the site. A redundant server has been configured at an alternate datacenter in another state with automatic fail-over to prevent this problem from occuring again.

An Introduction to Training Manager
Apr 25th, 2009 by admin
Importing Courses into Training Manager
Apr 21st, 2009 by admin
You may import your master course list using the menu option Tools –> Import –> Courses.
The list of courses should be in a comma-separated-values format (.csv). If you have the list in MS Excel, you can use the Save-As function to save the file as a .csv file. A .csv file can be opened in MS Excel, or in Notepad. For example, here is a sample listing of 2 courses in .csv format and displayed as text:
Sample Data:
Introduction To Customer Service,CS101,Internal,Training Room #1
Advanced Customer Service,CS400,Internal,Training Room #2
The field delimiter is a comma. If your course information contains commas in the actual field values, you will need to use a text qualifier as shown below:
"Customer Service, Introduction","CS101″,"Internal","Training Room #1″
"Customer Service, Advanced","CS400″,"Internal","Training Room #2″
Note that in the above example, a comma appears in the CourseTitle field. In order to include this data in the import and prevent the program from seeing the comma as the separation before the next field, quotation marks are placed around the field values.
You may run a test import by copying the example data above and pasting it into an empty notepad file. Save the file with the extension .csv on the end, and then import the data using the menu option Tools –> Import –> Courses.
How To Upgrade from a Standalone to Network edition
Apr 6th, 2009 by admin
We often receive emails from customers who have purchased a Standalone edition of one of our software products for use on a single computer and then later decide they would like to upgrade to a Network edition for use on multiple computers. One of the questions that comes up is:
Can I upgrade to a server database and copy the data from my existing database to the new one so I don't lose my existing work and have to enter it again?
Yes – the basic process is to create a backup file of your local database before the switch over, and then restore it to your new server database. Here are the specific steps:
- Backup your local database (menu option: File –> Backup). This will create a compressed backup file containing your data.
- Install and configure the remote database server. For instructions, select the link for your product near the top of the follwing page: Database Server Setup Instructions
- Install the network edition of the software on your computer.
- Connect to the remote database server (menu option: Tools –> Database Connection)
- Restore your local database backup copy to the server (menu option: File –> Restore). Select the backup file that you created in Step 1, and then click the Restore button.
- You can then install the network edition on additional user's computers and connect them to the remote database server (Step 4).
Note: if you are currently licensed for a standalone version of the software only, you will need to purchase an upgrade license key to continue adding new data to the server database. For a link to purchase the upgrade license, contact us through the Support page on our website at www.kzsoftware.com. Let us know which edition you are upgrading from, and we will provide you with a link to purchase an upgrade license.
"Assignments" in Training Manager
Apr 1st, 2009 by admin
"Assignments" in Training Manager allow you to track the status of required training for your personnel. This post provides clarification about how this feature works and how the training status is updated.
You may create assignments on the Assignments tab which will set required training for individuals based on the criteria you have chosen. There are three types of Assignments which you may create on the Assignments tab: Group, Job, and Individual. When a user has been assigned a course, it is "required", and it will show up on their status report as either "Overdue" or "Up to date".
Group Assignments
If you create a Group assignment, it will be automatically assigned to everyone in the chosen group. When new people are added to the group, they will also have that assignment automatically set up for them. You may also choose "All Groups" if you have an assignment which you want to be added for everyone.
Job Assignments:
Job Assignments are similar to Group assignments, except that they are applied to everyone within a particular Job Role rather than people within a particular organizational group.
Individual Assignments:
You may use Individual assignments for one-off specific requirements.
More Details:
When a course is Assigned, the status will be "Overdue" until it has been completed per the criteria in the Assignment. The Assignments mean that the Course is absolutely "Required". The Status for a Required course will not be "Up To Date" until it has been completed. For example, if a course is required every year, but it has never been taken, or it has not been taken within the past 12 months, then it will be "Overdue". If it has been taken at any time within the past 12 months, then the status will be "Up To Date".
The Overdue and Upcoming Status report displays all records that are either Overdue or with an expiration date within the next X days. Scheduling a Class Session within X days will not have an impact on the Status. The only way for the status to change to "Up To Date" is to complete the course. For example, consider these cases:
Case 1:
- Assignment: Course required once / year.
- Current Date (example): 4/1/2009
- Last completed: 1/1/2008
- Expiration Date: 1/1/2009
- Status: This course is "Overdue" because the expiration date is in the past (1/1/2009).
If you add a "Completed" training record before the expiration date, the status will then be "Up To Date", and the new Expiration Date will be set for 1 year after the new completion date.
Case 2:
- Assignment: Course required once/year.
- Current Date: 4/1/2009
- Last Completed: 1/1/2009
- Expiration Date: 1/1/2010
- Status: This course is "Up To Date" because it was last completed on 1/1/2009, and it doesn't expire until 1/1/2010.
If you have set the report filter to only show courses with an expiration date within 30 days, this record will not be included on the report (because the expiration date is more than 30 days away).
If you have set the filter to show courses with an expiration date within 365 days, this record WILL be included on the report (because the expiration date is within 365 days). However, the status remains "Up To Date" because the expiration date has not yet passed.

California business owners gained new protection against expensive, predatory lawsuits involving disability access laws last week as Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law Senate Bill 1186. It became effective September 19, 2012. The law is intended to cut down on shakedown demands and litigation, while at the same time increase disability access.
Property and business owners should familiarize themselves with the new requirements regarding demand letters involving disability access law violations. The new law:
The new law also provides some monetary relief for business that have unintentional violations that they are willing to correct. The law reduces from $4,000 to $2,000 the minimum statutory damages for each unintentional violation if the defendant is a small business (defined as having 25 or fewer employees and no more than $3.5 million in gross annual receipts) and has corrected the alleged violations within 30 days of being served with the complaint.
Additionally, the law reduces from $4,000 to $1,000 the minimum statutory damages for each unintentional violation if (1) the defendant corrects all violations within 60 days of being served with the complaint, and (2) and other circumstances apply including, among others i) the property was previously inspected by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp) prior to the date of the Plaintiff's alleged encounter with the barrier to access, or ii) the alleged violation pertains to new construction at the site that was approved pursuant to a local building permit and inspection process between January 1, 2008, and January 1, 2016.
Additional categories of defendants will now be able to request a stay of litigation and an early evaluation conference if:
In assessing liability in any action alleging multiple claims for the same violation on different occasions, courts are now required to consider the reasonableness of the plaintiff's conduct in light of plaintiff's obligation, if any, to mitigate damages. This is intended to deter plaintiffs from repeatedly attempting to access the same property and encountering the same barriers for the sole purpose of enhancing their claim for statutory damages and fees.
The new law also requires commercial property owners to state on all lease forms or rental agreements executed on or after July 1, 2013, whether the property being leased had undergone an inspection by a CASp.
Overall, the new law provides significant benefits to small business owners by promoting early identification and correction of violations and reducing the amount of statutory damages available to serial plaintiffs, and creating a mechanism for oversight of predatory practices by ADA practitioners. The law also provides incentives for property owners to promptly remedy violations upon demand and to obtain a CASp inspection.

The Philadelphia Flyers slid into sole possession of first place in the Atlantic Division and the Pittsburgh Penguins, despite all their injuries, stayed in close pursuit.
A sliding Scott Hartnell kicked in a goal with 28.5 seconds left in overtime to give the Flyers a 3-2 home victory over the Los Angeles Kings 3-2 on Tuesday night.
In New Jersey, the Penguins got two goals from Ryan Malone and defeated the Devils 4-2 without injured All-Star Sidney Crosby.
Pittsburgh has 60 points, one behind the Flyers.
In other NHL games it was: Phoenix 4, Columbus 2; Boston 3, Nashville 1; Carolina 3, N.Y. Rangers 1; Ottawa 5, N.Y. Islanders 2; Buffalo 4, Tampa Bay 2; St. Louis 3, Toronto 2; Montreal 4, Washington 0; Dallas 4, Vancouver 3; and San Jose 3, Edmonton 0.
The Flyers have been the best turnaround story of the season after finishing at the bottom of the NHL last season. They've won nine of 11.
However, the Flyers have struggled to win in the extra period. Their only other overtime victory in seven tries this season was back on Oct. 20 against Carolina. That final also was 3-2.
"It's nice to finally win one in overtime," said Braydon Coburn, who had a goal.
Simon Gagne also scored and Martin Biron had 29 saves for Philadelphia.
Biron kept the Flyers in it with a pad save on a point-blank shot by Jack Johnson in overtime.
With the clock winding down, Mike Richards dumped the puck toward a streaking Hartnell, who slid toward the net and scored his 17th goal off his skate.
The play was reviewed, but it was determined Hartnell didn't intentionally kick the puck.
"The guy knocked me down, it hit my skate and went in," Hartnell said. "It doesn't matter how pretty they are."
As for the Penguins, Crosby won't be around for another month or so and Pittsburgh's top goalie Marc-Andre Fleury isn't ready to return yet from a similar high ankle sprain.
Throw in the absences of Colby Armstrong (flu) and Tyler Kennedy (mononucleosis) and a pair of one-goal deficits, and it didn't seem likely the Penguins would have much of a chance to rally against the New Jersey Devils.
Guess again.
Erik Christensen had a goal and assist during Pittsburgh's three-goal second period, and former Devils forward Petr Sykora had two assists.
"It shows we don't give up," defenseman Ryan Whitney said. "I think we've got everyone doubting us in the whole hockey world right now. It's an honor and a privilege for us to play well. It's something we've got to go out and prove that we can do."
Jordan Staal got Pittsburgh even at 1 early in the second and Christensen and Malone struck less than 2 minutes apart to put the Penguins in front. Ty Conklin made 23 saves to improve to 11-2-2 since joining the team following Fleury's ankle injury in December.
Malone added a power-play goal 5:21 into the third to make it 4-2 for the Penguins, 2-1-1 since Crosby's injury. Pittsburgh passed the Devils into second place in the Atlantic Division.
"It's big. It's a battle for the first spot even though there are a lot of games left," Malone said.
Sharks 3, Oilers 0
At Edmonton, Alberta, Evgeni Nabokov earned his sixth shutout with only 13 saves and the San Jose Sharks won their third game in a row.
Joe Pavelski, Mike Grier and Patrick Rissmiller scored for San Jose, which had lost four straight before putting together their recent run and remain in first place in the Pacific Division.
Mathieu Garon made 36 saves for Edmonton.
Stars 4, Canucks 3
At Vancouver, British Columbia, Mike Modano and Stephane Robidas scored three minutes apart early in the second period, and Marty Turco made 29 saves for Dallas.
Trevor Daley and Steve Ott also scored for the Stars, who ended a two-game losing streak to stay tied with San Jose atop the Pacific Division.
Ott's short-handed goal 7:30 into the third period became the game winner when Ryan Kesler scored with 7:30 left for Vancouver and Markus Naslund added another with 1:20 left.
Coyotes 4, Blue Jackets 2
At Columbus, Ohio, Peter Mueller scored twice and Phoenix scored three third-period goals to beat Columbus.
Mathias Tjarnqvist had an acrobatic, one-handed goal and Radim Vrbata added an empty netter for the Coyotes.
Fredrik Modin and Jason Chimera scored for the Blue Jackets, whose franchise-record six-game home winning streak ended.
Senators 5, Islanders 2
At Uniondale, N.Y., Mike Fisher had a goal and assist for Ottawa, which won for just the third time in eight games.
Andrej Meszaros, Chris Phillips, Dean McAmmond and Jason Spezza also scored for the Senators. Martin Gerber turned aside 23 shots.
Sean Bergenheim and Bryan Berard scored for the Islanders. All-Star goalie Rick DiPietro made 21 saves.
Bruins 3, Predators 1
At Boston, Glen Metropolit scored a pair of third-period goals and Tim Thomas stopped 37 shots to lift Boston.
Marco Sturm scored his team-leading 17th goal for the Bruins, who posted their fifth win in seven games.
Alexander Radulov scored for the Predators. Chris Mason made 25 saves for Nashville.
Hurricanes 3, Rangers 1
At Raleigh, N.C., Rod Brind'Amour and Sergei Samsonov scored in the second period, and Trevor Letowski added an insurance goal in the third.
Cam Ward made 34 saves for the Southeast Division-leading Hurricanes, who have won three of four.
Brendan Shanahan scored for the Rangers. Goalie Henrik Lundqvist stopped 24 shots.
Sabres 4, Lightning 2
At Tampa, Fla., Jason Pominville scored a goal and had two assists to help struggling Buffalo win for just the fourth time in 16 games.
Clarke MacArthur, Drew Stafford and Derek Roy also scored for Buffalo and Ryan Miller earned his 20th win with 23 saves.
Vaclav Prospal and Brad Richards scored for Tampa Bay.
Blues 3, Maple Leafs 2
At Toronto, Keith Tkachuk scored on his team's first two shots and St. Louis ended a seven-game winless streak.
David Backes had a goal and an assist for the Blues. Toronto native Manny Legace stopped 23 shots for the Blues,
Matt Stajan and Jason Blake had the goals for the Maple Leafs and linemate Darcy Tucker had two assists.
Canadiens 4, Capitals 0
At Montreal, Cristobal Huet stopped 35 shots in his second shutout of the season and Mark Streit had a goal and an assist to lead Montreal.
Sergei Kostitsyn, Saku Koivu and Alex Kovalev also scored for Montreal, which has won three straight and seven of nine.
Brent Johnson made 36 saves for Washington.

An interior design is a plan for the look and feel of things inside a structure, or in the case of this wiki, inside a home. The term "interior design" can also refer to the process of creating or implementing a plan or design. Interior design also applies to other spaces, such as offices, hotels, other buildings and sometimes spaces that are not really "interior", such as gardens, but on this wiki we focus on residential interior design.
Modern Interior designs have to take many things into consideration. It has to look at how much money is in the budget and how that can extend to the overall design of the interiors.
Interior designers are professionals that combines vision, industry insights, and application expertise. Interior designers operate with clients and other interior decor professionals to generate designing treatment methods that are safe to use, practical, appealing, and satisfy the desires of the individuals living in the dwelling.[1]
Others things such as design and style are looked at to find the desired feel or effect that the person would like to give. The design can include colors or decorating themes based on resident favorites.
A thorough interior design considers, not just the aesthetics, but also the flow or use of things. Is the house structured in a way that supports the lifestyle, hobbies and needs of the residents who live there, including their safety. Good design should also take into account the physical needs of the residents. It can take into account the size of children, perhaps selecting furniture that will "grow" with the children. For instance, some cribs can be converted into a child's bed. Fragile or sharp items should probably be omitted in places where children play or where an older person could trip and fall. Some door handles are easier for an older person with arthritis to open than a round door knob. For other adjustments, see accessibility.
Some places regulate who can use certain titles such as "Certified Interior Designer". A professional interior designer can help by working with you or doing the work for you. Or you may prefer to do it yourself.

there is so much excitement around… it's the first day i wish i had tv in a year…
anyway… i was out n about on the interweb the other day…
searching for something pumpkin… ya know, being that it's fall n all…
i bought a can of pumpkin, with no thought of what to do with it.
i usually make the classic pumpkin muffins with chocolate chips…
but that just wasn't going to cut it this time…
so I revamped this martha recipe so it could use a brownie mix,
my only disclaimer: day 1 these are definitely more cake-y than fudgy.
mine was oozing brownie goodness out the top and those parts were kind of pumpkin pie meets lava cake. hello?!
…but after it sat, covered overnight… super moist and fudge-y.
and soooooo worth the wait… i may have had it for breakfast for 2 days…
its dense, so be prepared to get whacked with flavor…
- brownie mix {and whatever the box calls for:oil, water, eggs…etc.}
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 Tbs vanilla
- 1cup flour
- 1/2 t baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 cups pumpkin {pureed}
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
what to do
mix up the brownies as directed on the box, set aside. blend the sugar, eggs, and vanilla in one bowl and the flour, baking powder, and salt in another. mix all of the ingredients together until smooth. add remaining ingredients and mix well.
line a 9×9 pan with parchment paper and spray with baking spray. pour half the brownie mix, then half the pumpkin mixture, and repeat. bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes. {I think I ended up baking for at least 50, so be sure and check until only the center is gooey.}
let cool in pan and top with melted chocolate or a ganache
{melted semi-sweet with heavy cream… you won't be sad about it.}
next time i might try it in a 9×13 to see how that changes the texture for fun,
but i was not at all disappointed!!
let me know how it goes if you make them!

16 comments on naughty pumpkin swirl brownies
This was a painful read for a man who just started the Atkins diet 😛
ooh… sorry bout that! how long can you keep that up?? 😉 and what are you trying to lose, your limbs! but no seriously, that's tough, i commend you.
O-M-G !!
These brownies look soooooooooo decadent and scrumptious!
Baking in my oven right now I will let you know how they turn out. Stores in my are are all out of pumpkin pie spice, I had to make my own 🙂
Ooh- let me know! And let me know if they're not yummier tomorrow! 😉
Didn't eat any last night, but I did have one for breakfast this morning… They are so delicious. I had to bake mine for 55 minutes in a 9×9 ceramic pan, but they turned out perfect!
Oh my, they look scrumptious!
I would love to have you share this or any other recipe of yours at Wednesday Extravaganza – my Foodie Link Party with the chance to get a lifetime feature on my Wall of Fame! Here is the link:
http://www.hungrylittlegirl.com/1/post/2012/11/wednesday-extravaganza-3.html

Can't wait to see you there!
done and done. thanks for the invite! i'm a new follower!
I have a batch in the oven right now! I have been dying to make these all week!!
This looks so incredibly amazing. I can't wait to make them!
Does it matter what kind of brownies? Ok if they have chocolate chips? And I'm not familiar with the semi sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream-how much of each?
I made these this afternoon and just had one tonight…AMAZING!!! I even cut the sugar in half and it was STILL amazing!
Has anyone tried doubling the recipe and making in a 9×13 pan? If yes….how long did u bake them?
Made these in a 9×13 inch glass pan, using just the one recipe, not doubling, they came out perfectly! Baked about the same amount of time that is called for, just kept an eye on them until they weren't jiggly in the middle and the edges were getting done too. Used coconut oil for the amount called for in recipe, and they came out AMAZING!!

Making them again now!
Ooh, I am excited to know about the coconut oil!! I have a huge, and I mean huge amount of it from costco, so I'm glad to know it didn't hurt any. I mean, how could it though?! 😉 Thanks!
It's really amazing, the difference it makes in your baked goodies, give it a try! Thanks for this recipe, it's a keeper and I love your blog as well!

Excerpt from Stand Lamps for Living Room, Myriads of Designs to Choose:
People may use the term stand lamps with floor lamps although there is a basic difference between the two. A floor lamp can come in various designs, including the one with a short, stubby, and round design. It doesn't always come with a pole support that is extending upward. If you have a round Jack-O-Lantern or a short lamp placed on the floor, it is a floor lamp. A standing lamp is the type of lamp placed on the floor with a pole support extending upward. If you want to choose stylish stand lamps for living room, you can choose a lamp with decoration details on the pole support. Or you can choose one with details on the shade, on the bottom feet, and such thing alike.

A strange bug is hitting Intel's celebrated new X25-M G2 SSDs, causing user lockouts. What can users do to stop this from happening? When will Intel have a fix ready? How will this affect the overall SSD market?
Read the whole story
Why does this happen?
The data is gone? Does the bug flash every block on the drive? C'mon guys, obviously not. Seagate said the same thing about their drive problems earlier this year... but managed to find a solution to un-brick and keep all the data.
Even if they used the BIOS password as a key and encrypted everything on the drive with it, it should still be possible to access the data in some fashion (assuming one knows what the password should be). Worst case scenario, just desolder the flash chips and mount them elsewhere.
I'm wondering if it's possible, just really really hard because of electrical or circuit issues. Like having to decap a chip to get at some internal circuit necessary for clearing the problem.
This comment was edited by Bob Loblaw on August 03, 2009 17:53
This issue was raised nearly two weeks ago. They recalled shipments within hours (minutes?) of the SSDs going on sale.
I'm not sure why Ars waited until now to report on this, but it sure makes it seem like a much bigger deal than it actually is. Since they recalled them so quickly, I can't imagine that many people actually ordered the defective drives. And for those who did, how many are actually setting BIOS passwords?
And for those who set BIOS passwords, how many people wait to do so until *after* they install the OS, install all their applications, and *delete their backups*? There are probably less than 5 people throughout the entire world that will receive these drives and actually be affected negatively by this bug in any catastrophic way.
The only sucky part is that I wanted to order one of these right away but now have to continue to wait until they're back on sale again :-(
Yeah, this is old news in the SSD thread in the forums, and it doesn't seem like something that would affect very many users. In the meantime, the early adopters who were wanting to jump all over this, warts and all, are frustrated because their orders were being canceled or shipments routed back to the vendor.
AFAIK, the only people who managed to snag these drives ordered them immediately and paid for next-day shipping.
The really dumb thing, as lmn8r pointed out, the effects of this bug are virtually nil.
I would have been happy to receive a drive, along with a note to not set a BIOS password, then just do my own firmware update.
This does seem like a bug that will happen to only a very few people, considering that SSDs of any useful size aren't big outside of Netbooks and that anyone in their right mind isn't using them as a primary, sole source of data storage.
A fairly significant amount of data corruption going on right there. You'd think that they could have got someone who'd heard of English to make the announcement.
For some reason, the word "Deskstar" is rattling around my head.
Can someone explain to me how setting a BIOS password affects a hard drive at all? Shouldn't it be affecting, you know, the BIOS? Or is this a different type of password protection than the BIOS access password?
Most Hard Disks have a password capability, and most modern BIOSes will set this password along with the BIOS password.

Here is the clips. Warts and all. Loads of poor shots in there.
Been trying to swing more shallow into the ball in an attempt to get a shallow strike under the ball. Results weren't great. Thought I had my weight left but can see my top half hanging way back on the side views in the 16th bunker.
Eventually decided to try what I call the 'birchy bunker method'. Watched him play bunker shots like this and he keeps it very simple. He sets up square, ball about middle, face square and hands a little ahead. Simply digs in about 4 inches behind and ball pops out and flys straight. Works well if not in a big silly pot bunker.
As you can see getting out isn't a problem. Distance control is brutal mind you.
Wedges are high bounce and the 60 has a huge sole.
Feel free to comment and give me ideas what to try next. Might book a bunker lesson. Could be fun.

In 2016, the Center produced an update to and extension of its 2000 Report on the State of Black Alumni: 1869-2000 with the publication of Harvard Law School: Report on the State of Black Alumni II 2000-2016. The report contains both a comprehensive history section on the state of the black legal profession and, in particular, black HLS graduates between 2000 and 2016 (including a comprehensive timeline of developments across those years) as well as a robust data section on the career-paths of black HLS graduates. The Center launched this important work in June 2017 at its 3rd Annual Awards Dinner, held at the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture.LEARN MORE HERE
The Harvard Law School Center on the Legal Profession (CLP) is seeking 1 or more Research Fellows to join its Fellowship Program in the Summer/Fall 2018 (exact start date negotiable) to conduct independent empirical research on the structure, norms, and dynamics of the global legal profession and to contribute to the research priorities of the Center. We encourage applicants to learn more about the Center's research on its website (CLP.law.harvard.edu) and via its digital magazine The Practice (thepractice.law.harvard.edu).
Research fellowships are full-time, in-residence at the Center's offices in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and typically 2-years in length. At the Center, the Research Fellow would join a lively group of researchers from diverse disciplines as well as Harvard's wider academic community.
Previous research fellows have come from a number of academic backgrounds (including law, sociology, international relations/political science, economics, psychology, and organizational behavior) and have gone onto faculty positions at major universities in the United States, India, Korea, and Canada.
To learn more, email Bryon Fong at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Law has traditionally operated in a world in which "inputs" formed the basis of analysis. For instance, the billable hour—how much time a lawyer puts into a particular matter—has traditionally been the standard metric for measuring the overall worth, and even the quality, of legal work. That is changing. Pushed by increasingly sophisticated general counsels who have long stressed the need for "data analytics," in-house legal departments are increasingly developing "output" based criteria for measuring the cost and quality of legal services The Project's aim is to better understand how to measure "quality" in legal services, and to offer a set of recommendations as to the development of quality metrics in law.

I got in an internet discussion a few weeks ago about the alternative medicine joke:
Q. What do you call alternative medicine that works?
A. Medicine.
There seems to be a misconception that alternative medicine is everything from healing crystals to all-juice diets, and "real" medicine is stuff that works. One person said, "if a treatment were proven, my doctor would do it. If he doesn't, then it's bullshit."
Unfortunately, I have learned that thyroid treatment is a perfect example of why it is a lot more complicated than that, and how there is a massive gray area between "proven" and "BS".
I was reminded of that discussion after The Coalition for Better Thyroid Care posted a link to this article today, which addresses the problems a lot of thyroid patients face in their medical treatment. Most notably:
"The lag between the discovery of more effective forms of treatment and their incorporation into routine patient care averages 17 years."
17 years. Seventeen years for something that is "proven" to make its way into routine patient care. That's an entire human being who has gone through puberty and acquired a drivers' license.
It took me five tries to find my current thyroid doctor, and his clinic is considered an "alternative" clinic. This is because he does things like:
- more thorough testing, because he knows the TSH test is not a sole indicator of thyroid function, and that the TSH reference range is outdated;
- recommends patients try a gluten-free diet, as well as other dietary changes, strongly advocating the importance of gut health; and
- uses natural dessicated thyroid hormone and knows that there is no one-medication-fits-all solution for all his patients.
Nothing he does is unsupported by science, and he's happy to point to medical studies and literature for his patients to read. One could argue that other doctors are aware of the debates about thyroid treatment and have simply made an informed decision that there isn't enough compelling evidence to support them. However, that hasn't been my personal experience.
From of the four doctors I saw before my current doctor, questions were met with "I haven't heard about that" or worse, "it doesn't matter what new research says, because this is the gold standard for thyroid treatment". I have relatives whose doctors have never heard of dessicated thyroid medication, which has been used successfully in thyroid treatment since 1891.
All four doctors used the "whatever it says on the lab results page is correct" treatment method (if the lab says your TSH is too high, increase Synthroid dosage, if the lab says your TSH is too low, decrease Synthroid dosage, and if the lab says your TSH is in the normal range, you're fine and your symptoms are in your imagination).
So what does this mean for patients?
It's our responsibility to advocate for our own health. Read and research (not to be confused with looking at WebMD and self-diagnosing every ache and pain as cancer), and learn how to have a conversation with your doctor as an active participant in your health care, and not be told what's right for you. Respect your doctor's expertise, but still understand that you know if something isn't right, and dismissing it is not an option. And if you need to? Find a new doctor.
Hopefully, the things listed above will be the gold standard for thyroid treatment sooner than 2030.

- The SF Public Press has an article about the drive to get building owners to actually do something with their abandoned structures. Lord knows we've got plenty in the Loin, but their map isn't showing so many. Chime in and add a few. I think the one at 907 Post was actually supposed to be this one as that shot they have is on the opposite side of the street.
- And booyah! Brenda's is expanding! This has to be the best news I've heard since yesterday when the French got knocked out of the First Round of the World Cup. I tried to go to Brenda's last week with my grandparents and seeing that it was an hour wait, we had to ditch, which sucked. Of course, when you're voted one of the 50 best new restaurants in the US, you're bound to get a bit crowded. But more than anything is the fact that they're going to be staying in the Loin as opposed to ditching for some schmancier ground. Much like your biscuits, Brenda, outstanding.

This wine reminds us of a renegade: unruly, unpredictable and has had trouble with the law. Inky dark color. Intense aromas of black olive, cassis, earth, and wild sage. The tannic structure is big, dense, rich, firm, and concentrated with flavors of black pepper and black cherry that echo the aromas. A textural tension carries through the finish.
Wild Sage
Black Pepper
Black Cherry
Created by uplift from seismic activity and movement of tectonic plates some 12 million years ago, Mount Veeder is derived from ancient sea beds. These sedimentary soils are infused with the decayed remnants of the forests native to the area, which leads to a distinctively dark berry and exotic, wild mountain character. Because of the rugged, steep terrain of this mountain appellation, the yields are inherently miniscule, with tiny berries bursting with concentrated and densely tannic structures.

Hannah Reid's blog posts
Ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) is gaining traction as a way to help manage the threats of climate change. But for the policy community to realise EbA's real potential as a viable response for climate vulnerable communities, we need to plug knowledge gaps on how it works, when and why.
Four reasons why the voices of the most vulnerable must be heard and prioritised if we are to ensure that the Sustainable Development Goals leave no one behind.
Guest blogger Hannah Reid reports back from a CBA9 field trip where she discovered how a slaughterhouse can help fight climate change.
A new advocacy toolkit aims to close the gap between the science and the lacklustre ambition and action by the public and policy makers on climate change.
As understanding of the severity of climate change rises, it's increasingly clear that a negotiated global agreement on climate change is not enough – civil society has a central role to play too.
Hannah Reid reports on a field trip to a site in Manikganj District, about three hours from Dhaka city in Bangladesh, to see how vulnerable people are coping with climate-change related impacts.

The Sports Xchange
By Jeff Reynolds, The Sports Xchange
Game Scout: Steelers-Raiders
Pittsburgh Steelers (2-4) at Oakland Raiders (2-4)
Sunday, 4:05 p.m. ET, at o.Co Coliseum, Oakland - TV: CBS
*TV announcers: Spero Dedes, Rich Gannon
*Keys to the game: Le'Veon Bell rushed for a career-high 93 yards last week, and the Steelers want to continue right where he left off. The Raiders are yielding just 99 rushing yards per game but are susceptible to QB Ben Roethlisberger making plays outside the pocket. Pittsburgh has just nine total touchdowns this season, and prolonged drives are few and far between. Roethlisberger is adjusting to his offensive line by getting rid of the ball quickly. When he waits for plays to develop, Roethlisberger must identify S Charles Woodson, who has license to roam in the Raiders' scheme. OLB LaMarr Woodley rushes from QB Terrelle Pryor's right, a matchup the Steelers like with RT Tony Pashos banged up. Pryor leads all quarterbacks and the Raiders with 285 yards rushing and has a 6.5-yard average per carry. The Steelers' bevy of linebacker blitzes serves them well against mobile quarterbacks -- including last season when they corralled Washington's Robert Griffin III (8 yards rushing, 177 passing) and Michael Vick (16 rushing, 175 passing) in two victories -- though Pryor is showing polish as a downfield passer.
*Matchup to watch - Steelers WR Antonio Brown vs. Raiders CB Mike Jenkins -- Brown has 47 receptions, most by a Steelers receiver through six games since 1960. Roethlisberger's most trusted target draws Jenkins, who is best at playing bump coverage and re-routing receivers.
*Player spotlight - Raiders LB Sio Moore: He had been pulled when the Raiders went to the nickel defense, but Oakland wants him on the field on passing downs because of his burst to help corral Roethlisberger.
*Fast facts: Roethlisberger is two TD passes shy of 200 for his career. He will join Terry Bradshaw as the only Steelers quarterbacks to hit that mark. ... The Raiders have lost 10 consecutive games coming out of their bye week.
Neither team will wring 30 points out of their offense, leaving each defense to come up with momentum-flipping plays. The veteran Steelers should gain the upper hand against Terrelle Pryor.
*Our pick: Steelers 24-18

Reasons Why SEO Is Frustrating
As SEO experts, we'll be the first to admit that SEO can be a frustrating field so we can only imagine how SEO clients feel.
Here are some of the top SEO frustrations:
Success is difficult to measure
SEO is a marathon, not a sprint. However, no matter how many times the SEO process is explained it's often difficult for SEO clients to understand this concept. Clients want to see SEO results and they wanted to see them yesterday but that's not how it works. It can take years to begin to see SEO results, especially in a competitive niche. It's also important to understand that SEO may only be one part of ultimate success. Clients have asked us, "How do we know which is working best- SEO, social media, or content marketing?" The answer is, you really don't know because it's usually a combination of all three that is generating traffic to the website and resulting in leads or sales. The last touchpoint may have been a blog post but that same visitor may have initially found the site via search and then started following the company in social media. Even if a lead or a sale isn't tied directly to SEO, it's likely that SEO played a role in the sale at some point along the line.
Google does whatever it wants, whenever it wants
When we talk about SEO we talk about improving a "search engine" presence but we all know that we are really talking about Google, which still has the biggest chunk of the search engine market by far. If you want to succeed in SEO, you need to play by Google's rules which seem to constantly be changing. Google aims to provide its users with the best possible search experience and the search giant is always tweaking its algorithm in order to do so. This means that a link building tactic that worked just a few years ago may no longer be relevant or could even land you in some hot water. Think about the major Google updates that have happened within the past few years. Panda and Penguin both forced many websites out of their comfortable positions. We need to just accept that we are at the mercy of Google, pay attention to any moves it makes, and follow Google's best practice guidelines.
Success can be out of your control
Some SEO clients want to know why they aren't ranking in the top 3 after months of SEO. The first thing to keep in mind is that ranking isn't an accurate measure of success because rankings fluctuate based on the personalization of search. However, beyond that it could very well be that it could take many more years to get to the top 3, or you may never get there at all. If you are relatively new to SEO and have competitors that are established and have been working at SEO for years, they are at a huge advantage. There is nothing that you can do about the trust and authority that your competitors have already achieved.
While it may be tempting to avoid SEO because of these frustrations, we still must face it head on. Because the thing is, no matter how much it may frustrate us at times, it's still a necessary component of an online marketing program. Without good SEO work it will be difficult for a website to succeed in the search engines at all.
