Dr. Suchy's research has focused on hepatic transport mechanisms which contribute to bile formation and which may be altered during cholestatic liver disease. He has studied the development and regulation of liver basolateral and canalicular transport proteins for bile salts. In more recent years, he has been interested in the role of nuclear receptors in regulating bile acid transporters and the membrane polarity of these transporters in both liver and intestine. He has been supported continuously for over 20 years by grants from the National Institutes of Health and currently holds a MERIT award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.

What is a Washington registered agent?
A Washington registered agent is a person or business designated to accept documents (annual reports, service of process, and other notices) on behalf of a corporation, LLC, or LP. A registered agent must have a physical address in Washington, a P.O. box is not sufficient.
Who needs a Washington registered agent?

All of our staff has been trained to never give away your details. Our in-house, data-security professionals stress test our system regularly to make sure client data is safe and secure.
- Collections. We talk to so many new clients who are switching to Northwest Registered Agent because their old registered agent had really obnoxious billing policies. We never send our clients to collections. If you don't want to pay us, we will end our service. We take our trademarked slogan, "We're Just Not Annoying" seriously.

Special-delivery postman Jules (Frédéric Andréi) finds himself on the run all across Paris after making a pirated tape recording of the object of his obsession: the never-recorded opera super-star Cynthia Hawkins (played by real-life opera star Wilhelmenia Fernandez). Among the pursuers: a drug kingpin, Taiwanese music pirates, and the Paris police. Is everyone that crazy for opera, or could something else have slipped into Jules's mail pouch by mistake? Longtime assistant director Beineix's debut was an international arthouse sensation, playing for over a year in some cinemas, and single-handledly launching the punk-inspired cinéma du look movement, whose subsequent exponents included Leos Carax and the young Luc Besson.

Monsoon Summer
Author: Mitali Perkins
Page Length: 257
Reading Level: 5
Genre: Fiction
PLOT SUMMARY: Jazz Gardner has to tell her business partner, Steve Morales, (best friend and secret love of her life) that she will be traveling to India with her family for the summer. Her mother has received a grant for the orphanage in which she was adopted from several years earlier. Having no choice, Jazz tells Steve good-bye, with sadness that he will find a girlfriend while she is gone.
Upon arriving in India, Jazz decides to attend the local school rather than work at the orphanage. However, her brother gets involved with the orphans by coaching them soccer, and her dad, a loner, becomes obsessed with teaching the nuns who run the orphanage computer skills. Meanwhile, her mother is fulfilling her dream of making the orphanage a safe-haven for pregnant women of India to come and receive medical services.
Steve writes her letters, but Jazz cannot find the words to respond to him. She pens many letters, but hides them away. When Danita, one of the girls at the orphanage, starts to cook and clean for the Gardner's, Jazz opens up to her and tells her how she feels about Steve.
Jazz meets girls at the school who try to get her involved by attending dances after school. Jazz has only danced once (with Steve at the eighth grade dance) and she was a complete klutz. Jazz feels she is too large and clumsy to be attractive, not petite like her mom. She eventually starts to take ceremonial dance from Danita for a performance they will give at the opening of the orphanage.
As Jazz observes her family at the orphanage, learns of Danita's destiny of being an orphan, and raffles through her relationship with Steve, she realizes that there is a gift in giving and opens her heart to touch others.
REVIEW: This is an excellent coming of age book for junior high and high school girls to read. Jazz lacks confidence, specifically because her mother exemplifies a super-woman. She is cautious in giving of herself after being taken advantage of by a druggie, earlier in the year. As Jazz observes the poverty in India, she realizes she has much to be grateful for and understands her mother's mission to help the people of her home country. Through her relationships with Danita and her girlfriends she makes at the school, Jazz gains the confidence she needs to tell Steve her feelings and make good mature decisions about her life.

Hey Guys,
I am spending more time on my old blog for a while. So until then, venture on over here until I get things figured out!
Hey Guys,
I am spending more time on my old blog for a while. So until then, venture on over here until I get things figured out!
Oh my, I just discovered a treasure trove of these script fonts here. And there are more there than I have shown here.
If I had a million dollars right now, I'm quite sure I would splurge on all these lovelies right now.
There are a million wonderful Easter Egg decorating tutorials thanks to Pinterest, but here are a few that are just inspiring. My favorite is the specimen eggs, way pretty to do on naturally colored eggs!
I don't consider myself a foodie, especially now that I live in Utah. But living in a culturally non-diverse place (at least in my opinion, when it comes to eateries), I've been able to experiment a lot with recipes when I get the chance. Pizzas are my favorite experiment lately. We even bought a pizza stone and a peel to make it official.
This is the amazing pizza dough recipe that I've been using. It seems like a lot of work, but it's actually a lot of waiting time. This dough takes 18 hours to rise, and the best part-no kneading! I have so much fun making it cause it makes me feel like a dough making pro. I love it because it makes a really crisp dough, but you can also roll it out super thin if you wanted. Try it out, you may have found better, if so link me up! I love to try new things (;
I have been looking for a go-to black "leather" jacket ever since Ashley and Mary Kate Olsen started sporting theirs years ago. It was really important that the sleeves were fitted, because I didn't want to look like a tough biker chick wearing it, and I wanted to be able to wear it over anything and everything. Here are some that I am currently debating splurging on.
I have a lovely friend who is a Mortician, she came over the other night for dinner in her "work" clothes. After talking to her I realized that her work clothes were basically what I wear everyday. I love wearing black, white, grey, and muted colors. I'm not quite sure why, maybe because those are classy colors, and partly also because I feel comfortable in those colors. I guess in the end, I don't really care if I dress like a mortician, but it was an interesting self discovery.

LateralVIolence Is 'Nurses Eating their Young' REALLY a current issue in nursing? First off: What is it? Lateral Violence: "nurse on nurse aggression and inter-group conflict ( Stanley, 2007)."
Horizontal Violence
Horizontal Hostility
Verbal Abuse
More commonly known as " Nurses eating their young" Griffin study pointed out the top 10 most frequent forms of lateral violence in nursing by frequency. HOW IS nursing impacted by this? High stress level Recognize when bullying exists An effective leader can use interpersonal skills to influence other nurses to work towards the goal of eliminating lateral violence. WHAT CAN we TAKE FROM THIS?? How could effective management improve Lateral Violence? More research is being done to determine the best ways to reach the nursing population regarding education and prevention of lateral violence SOURCES sources in nursing Most at Risk:
Main reason: Facing obstacles in a new environment
Evidenced Based: "Approximately 60 of newly registered nurses leave their first position within six months of employment because of some form of lateral violence" (Sheridan-Leos, 2008).
OR Nurses: Griffin states " No other area in the hospital has a higher probability of lateral violence than the operating room" (Patterson,2007) Least at Risk
Main reason: Men are more dominant and more likely to express their views. RISKS/POPULATIONS #1: Nonverbal innuendo raising of eyebrows, making faces #2: Verbal affront lack of openness, abrupt responses #3: Undermining #4: Withholding information #5: Sabotage #6: Infighting #7: Scapegoating #8: Backbiting #9: Failure to respect privacy #10: Broken confidences turning away, intentionally not available deliberately setting up a negative situation bickering with peers attributing all that goes wrong to one individual complaints to others about a nurse and not speaking directly to her " Powerlessness triggers a cycle of oppressed group behaviors among nurses leading to frustration, non assertive behavior, non support of coworkers, and conflict in the work environment" ( Stanley, 2004). Origin of Lateral Violence/ Theory "nurses are an oppressed and powerless group dominated by others" (Sheridan-Leos, 2008).
Oppressed because nursing is mostly women reporting to mostly male physicians and administrators Oppressed-Group Model Submissive-Aggressive Syndrome 'describes when nurses feel they have lost their power and react by overpowering others through aggressiveness'(Sheridan-Leos, 2008)". LITERATURE SUPPORTS THIS.. Freire's Oppression Theory "members of an oppressed group display common behavioral characteristics (low self esteem and self-hatred) " (Sheridan-Leos, 2008). Nurses feel powerless and oppressed in healthcare, feeling alienated and having little control
Instead of using confrontation nurses express their frustration on other nurses through lateral violence
Often nurses say that lateral violence is a 'safer' form of stress relief than confrontation Lateral violence affects quality of pt care and contributes to the breakdown of communication between staff. financial problems due to absence reduced self esteem sleep disturbances increased depression or self blame emotional withdrawal from patients painful feelings perpetuation of power imbalances anger guilt depression such as what should you do If you experience lateral violence? Utilize behavioral health services as needed Be aware of the effect of bullying and look for signs that bullying if affecting you Know your rights. Be knowledgeable about policies and procedures in your workplace. Document the specifics for all incidents of bullying Prepare for the possibility that the organization will prioritize their interests If other measures fail then seek legal counsel (Murray, 2009) How can effective leadership improve lateral violence? #1 An effective leader recognizes when lateral violence exists, and recognize that it is an important problem that needs to be handled. #2 An effective leader will recognize any role he/she plays in lateral violence, and he/she will take responsibility to change any negative behavior. Effective nursing leaders are role models for other nurses on how to trust and respect their fellow staff nurse. A supportive, caring work environment based on trust and respect diminishes lateral violence. #3 When there is a conflict, an effective nurse leader will use a technique called "carefronting" instead of confronting. #4 In this technique, the nurse leader will use concepts such as respect, forgiveness, and courage to bring about a resolution. An effective leader will integrate both his/her personal needs and the needs and wants of others. By considering others wants and needs, an effective leader handles the situation and person/people involved in a responsible manner. An effective nurse leader practices healthy ways to release anger such as diffusing anger. #5 Effective leadership includes enhancing work relationships by encouraging socialization outside of the workplace. #6 #1:
Managers need make sure that their staff is knowledgeable about Lateral Violence so that they can understand it and recognize it in the workplace. "The use of cognitive rehearsal will help provide nurses with the skills to combat Lateral Violence, and could be an effective method in preventing the negative consequences of Lateral Violence. ."(Embree & White, 2010) "Cognitive Rehearsal asks individuals to hold in their mind information that they have just received. The act of consciously not responding, or not reacting, allows individuals time to process the information based on what they have previously been taught about the information coming in." (Griffin, 2004) #2: #3:
Behavioral Intervention can also be used, which is immediate confrontation of the nurse who practices Lateral Violence. (Griffin, 2004) #4:
Managers could also use mediation techniques to identify conflicts early and by resolving them through listening, reframing the concern, identifying a common ground, and by clearly defining decisions. (Center for American Nurses, 2008) #5:
Managers need to let their staff know that there will be no tolerance of Lateral Violence on the Unit. #6:
Emphasize that as of 2007 the Joint Commission had incorporated Lateral Violence into its standards. (Center for American Nurses, 2008) #7:
Organizational Strategies that could be implemented are the development of multidisciplinary groups to survey staff and their behaviors, develop educational opportunities, establish standards in the workplace regarding behaviors, emphasizing zero tolerance of Lateral violence, and rewarding positive behaviors. (Center for American Nurses, 2008) Lateral violence occurs across all disciplines and specialties of nursing. It is up to US to bring an end to lateral violence as it can only be stopped if: Work environments are created that do not support the behaviors and attitudes that are involved in or lead to lateral violence. Nurses must speak up if they are a victim of lateral violence or have witnessed lateral violence occurring. Lateral violence needs to be eliminated from nursing schools as well; to reach this goal education on lateral violence needs to be implemented into the curriculum. Units need to create a way to investigate if lateral violence is occurring among coworkers ( Ex: exit interviews). Suggestions for creating a disciplinary system that is solely responsible for addressing lateral violence on nursing units. In the end, the quality of patient care is negatively impacted, as well as the nurse's professional experience.
"Horizontal violence seems ironic in a discipline that has caring for others as its main focus." (Woelfle & McCaffrey, 2007) Presented by: Sowsina Gola, Aimee Gray, Rebecca Jackson, Kristen Morgan, Serena Ridenhour, Allison Whitener

I, like children and crazy people, am obsessed with Halloween. The best thing I bought this year? A big, beautiful green heirloom pumpkin. I brag about it when people come over, make people pet it like a cat. Seriously. It's that kind of obsession.
See also
As a small child, my mom's friend, Kathy, made me the most fantastic costumes ever. She was a seamstress for Broadway productions. She created both E.T. (my initials) and Rainbow Brite costumes that children today, who don't even know who these fabulous characters are, would beat each other to wear. They were that good.
But then for about a decade, I wanted to be a cat. Boring. As I aged, the more I wanted to kick Halloween ass. Like totally overtake it. One year, a tiny leather skirt, purchased at Flamingo Mall, and a decent tan inspired me to become Tina Turner. Ever since, it's been primarily musical costumes for me. I thought I'd share my past ideas with you to inspire your musical getups and offer a few lessons I've learned over many years of screwing things up.
Tell me that E.T. costume doesn't rule.
I usually do two costumes a year because whatever I craft, no matter how awesome it is that Saturday night of parties, it falls apart on the actual Halloween day. So, the Tina year, I also was a crappy Cher using a lotta lip licking and an old witchy wig.
The following year, I got a blonde wig and dressed as Dolly Parton. Man did those big boobs make me look ridiculous. I don't know how Dolly pulls them off, she's so tiny! But the wig also doubled a few nights later as Holly Madison's hair.
Wigs are great. One year, I was "The Color Purple" and the next Leeloo from The Fifth Element thanks to a purpley-pink bob I bought for a rave once. The color wasn't perfect for either, but the cut was.
Lesson 1: Not everything has to be exact.
Lesson 2: Always have a backup plan.
Take for instance, arguably, my best costume ever: Janet Jackson. At that point, I decided to be a diva every year. I'm a pain in the butt all the time, IRL, but no diva. Instead of being a slutty anything, I could be a god-dess.
I had an hour before the party to prepare, and only a blondish wig to look like a version of Janet on the cover of the September 16, 1993 issue of Rolling Stone. That and jeans. So, I ran to something like Party City and they had none of the things I needed or planned to use. But they did have a nude bodysuit and two white gloves. Guess, what? I sewed pillow padding onto an old bra and the gloves on my chest, and I became Janet Jackson. Everyone acted as Rene Elizondo that night, though only for photos.
Lesson 3: Be flexible in your materials.
The next year, I had been planning to be a jukebox many months in advance, but only put together the costume the week of. Again, my ideas weren't cutting it, and I ended up having to awkwardly balance about 5 pounds of stuffed tights on my head all night. The idea was that I'd sing one of the songs on my list when requested, like a human juke, but once I had a few drinks in me and developed a bit of stage fright, I forgot all of the lyrics to songs I know so well.
Lesson 4: Interactive costumes that require an ounce of intellect are a challenge.
Songs you could pick were Patsy Cline's "Crazy," "Faith" by George Michael, and Janis Joplin's "Mercedes Benz." The request part was a load of crap.
Since we were young, my brother and I wanted to dress as members of Metallica. I was always going to be James Hetfield, since I'm the older sibling, and that's who I wanted to be. Since Some Kind of Monster came out, it was clear Jim was a genuine diva. A trip to DC, some facial hair, and my sister-in-law's awesome drawing skills made me into Mr. Hetfield, tattoos and all.
My brother was Kirk Hammett, obvs.
This leads me to last year's Bjork on the cover of Homogenic costume. I freaked on this one and my friend, artist Meatball, had to help me construct it. I felt kinda bad, because I like to be the sole creator, but he was better at it than I. And it turned out pretty funny, though hard to keep together.
Lesson 5: A talented friend always comes in handy.
Anyway, I'm not spilling the beans on my costumes this year, but I can tell ya one thing: D-I-V-A-S. There's nothing better than being fabulous at Halloween. If you need help deciding on a costume, hit me up in the comments, give me a vague idea of your interests, and I'll grant you a brilliant costume idea. Sorta guaranteed.
Happy Halloween!

Jan. 15th Forum Features Tales from North Carolina Bookwatch
January 7, 2013
D.G. Martin, President of the William R. Kenan, Jr. Fund, has hosted UNC-TV's "North Carolina Bookwatch," the state's premier literary series, for the past 13 years. At the January 15th Catawba College Community Forum, Martin will describe lessons he has learned about North Carolina's rich literary traditions while hosting Bookwatch. The forum, which is free and open to the public, begins at 7:30 p.m. in Tom Smith Auditorium of Ralph W. Ketner Hall.
Martin has also written numerous book reviews and feature articles for journals and magazines and co-authored the North Carolina entry in the Encyclopedia Britannica. A feature series he produced for Our State Magazine later became the book, Interstate Eateries. A second edition of that book was released in 2008. About 40 North Carolina newspapers carry Martin's weekly newspaper column that features books, politics, and related topics.
A graduate of Davidson College and Yale Law School and a former Green Beret, Martin practiced law in Charlotte for 20 years before joining the University of North Carolina, where he served as Vice President for Public Affairs and chief legislative liaison. Since his retirement he has served in interim leadership positions at UNC-Pembroke, North Carolina Central University, Trust for Public Land, Triangle Land Conservancy, and North Carolina's Clean Water Management Trust Fund. In May 2008, Wingate University awarded him an honorary degree. He and wife Harriet have two children and four grandchildren.
Join us at the next Catawba College Community Forum on Tuesday, January 15, 2013 at 7:30 p.m. in Tom Smith Auditorium of Ralph W. Ketner Hall for an informed perspective on the literary traditions and contemporary literary life in the Old North State. Admission, as always, is free.

Russian International Olympic University inaugurated in Sochi
CHAD WISE / Sports Features Communications
(SFC) Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin, deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Kozak, Russian Olympic Committee President Alexander Zhukov and International Olympic Committee Coordination Commission Chairman for Sochi 2014 Jean-Claude Killy attended the inauguration ceremony of the Russian International Olympic University in Sochi Monday.
First established in 2009, the University will educate a new generation of sports managers in strategic and operational skills to manage organisations, facilities, and events around the world. Five hundred students can be housed at the University's Sochi seaport location, with 2,000 graduates expected annually.
"The Olympic family has no boundaries, and RIOU's creation is a perfect example of this," Russian International Olympic University Rector Professor Lev Belousov said. "Building a university from nothing has not been an easy task, but we have accomplished it. Our goal is to train the next generation of sports leaders by drawing on the vast Olympic knowledge and experience that RIOU's professors, visiting experts and the Sochi 2014 Organising Committee possess.
"I am delighted that so many sport leaders have been able to attend the campus inauguration today. To me it feels like the Opening Ceremony of an Olympic or Paralympic Games, which I hope many of our students will take leading roles in organising in the future.
The Russian International Olympic University's flagship course, Master of Sport Administration, is taught by leading Russian and foreign experts. Twenty-seven students from 14 countries, including Russia, Uganda, Armenia, India, the Republic of Korea, and Brazil, will take the course, with most students representing National Olympic Committees or other facets of the sport industry.
Students such as Olympic swimmer Otylia Jedrzejczak of Poland were awarded scholarships for the course's first year by the Vladimir Potanin Foundation.
"This is a great day for sport in Russia and for the Olympic Movement in general," Interros Chairman and Russian International Olympic University investor Vladimir Potanin said. "It has been a lot of hard work to get the university ready in just four year but I am certain that it will pay off and I look forward to helping RIOU become a globally recognised training centre for specialists in sport management.
"The MSA course is about to start and I wish all of the Vladimir Potanin Foundation scholars the very best of luck with their studies. They have been awarded scholarships because of their commitment to sport and their talents are exceptional. I have no doubt they will go on to become excellent sports management leaders."
"RIOU's state-of-the-art campus, which meets all environmental requirements, is a clear example of Sochi's Olympic legacy," Sochi 2014 Organising Committee President Dmitry Chernyshenko said. "The RIOU building has become the first Olympic venue to receive the BREEAM international environmental certificate. The University's Olympic education programme will produce a new constellation of professional sport managers equipped with the right knowledge to stage major sport events. They will become not only top class specialists, but ambassadors of Olympic and Paralympic ideals and values as well."
Microsoft will provide the Russian International Olympic University with up-to-date IT infrastructure after signing an Agreement on Cooperation with the University. The University also finalised an agreement with Coventry University.

London architect Jon Beswick, 27, has left the UK on an epic 48,000km overland trip circumnavigating Africa, during which he and his travel partner, strategy consultant Charlie Curtis, will build shelters for HIV clinics and raise money for UK charity One to One Children's Fund. Until 24 February, Jon was working as a project architect for Sacks Maguire Architects on high-end residential projects in Belgravia and Hampstead with construction budgets of £2,000,000. The budget for each shelter, which he is designing, is only a few hundred pounds and will pay for local labour and materials. Over the next few months Jon is writing a diary for WAN and in his latest entry he describes the construction of his first shelter in Burkina Faso.

Diego Simeone has urged Atletico Madrid to take control of their game against a Milan side he expects to be at their best come tomorrow.
Los Rojiblancos host Il Diavolo on Tuesday evening in their Champions League Last 16 second leg with a 1-0 advantage.
Even so, their Coach believes the test at hand will be tough, in spite of Milan's domestic struggles.
"I am sure it will be a tough game, hard, because they are a team with history and quality," Simeone has explained to the pre-match Press conference.
"They have talent, we will have to see how our players recover from the Celta Vigo game [played on Saturday]. Today and tomorrow we will analyse the situation, but Diego Costa, Arda Turan and Diego Godin will return.
"The goals from David Villa [two at the weekend against Celta] and the development of [January signing] Jose Sosa are helping us to grow.
"I expect a great Milan and I am certain tomorrow will be tough, for them and for us. They have great players and in these games always they always give their best, we expect to see the best Milan.
"We will try to score, but we have to control the game - the intensity in midfield will be decisive, it will be key to the challenge.
"We need to shut out any space for them, they are a team with offensive drive and if we do not restrain them then it will be a game of suffering."

"I went to Walter Reed to talk to the wounded warriors who had come back to discover that they were still paying for their meals and their phone calls while in Walter Reed, while rehabbing, which I could not believe," Obama said, referring to his April 2005 visit to the Washington, D.C., hospital. "And I was able to gain the cooperation of a Republican-controlled Senate at the time and pass a bill that would eliminate that."
Obama is correct that his bill passed, but he gives the impression its scope was broader than it really was.
It was actually Beverly Young, the wife of U.S. Rep. C.W. Bill Young of Indian Shores, Fla., who two years earlier called attention to the meal rules at Walter Reed. In the summer of 2003, she learned that the government was requiring wounded soldiers who were staying in the hospital to reimburse the government $8.10 per day for their food. The rule was based on a philosophy that soldiers would be double-dipping if they ate food at the hospital and got to pocket the $8.10.
She and Rep. Young raised a fuss about the rule and said it was wrong to charge wounded soldiers for hospital food. Rep. Young said it was especially silly to charge because "the food probably isn't that good."
The Youngs paid a $210 bill on behalf of Marine Staff Sgt. Bill Murwin, the first case the Youngs heard about, and Rep. Young introduced a bill to permanently end the rule. It passed in October 2003.
Young's law applied to inpatient care at Walter Reed. In January 2005, the month that Obama joined the Senate, Salon.com published an article that said soldiers who were visiting Walter Reed for outpatient care were also being required to pay for their meals.
About four months later, Obama visited Walter Reed and then introduced an amendment to a defense bill that expanded the definition of "hospitalized" soldiers to include those undergoing medical recuperation and therapy. Obama noted that the number of soldiers affected was "small" — about 4,000.
His amendment passed the Senate in May 2005 with bipartisan support: Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., was one of the co-sponsors and it passed when Republicans controlled Congress. The meal portion was included in a final conference report that passed both chambers that month.
Obama is correct that his bill passed and that it had Republican support. But at the Las Vegas debate, he gave the impression that its scope was broader than it was. Indeed, the main problem had been fixed two years earlier. So we find his statement Half True.

National did not 'come here' voluntarily, no matter how many insureds did. It was the unilateral decision of Elkman and other insureds to relocate to California which caused National to accept payments from this state and to process and pay claims for services rendered in this state. These circumstances do not support a findin National purposefully availed itself of forum benefits so as to make it subject to specific jurisdiction in California.

If the rule summarized in Gogri and Franklin applies (which it does not), then Fries's dismissal was invalid because her right to dismiss was foreclosed by the tentative ruling. In that case, subsequent discovery orders are not void - but the basis for defendants' costs awards also disappears. This would seem to be a poor bargain, and, in fact, it is not what defendants appear to be seeking. Instead, it seems defendants would like this court to find the dismissal sufficiently valid to support their costs awards, but not so valid as to deprive the court of jurisdiction to rule on the discovery motions. Not surprisingly, they cite no law for this 'a little bit dismissed' theory."

Thus, although a spouse may sue for loss of consortium deriving from the injury to his or her spouse, an unmarried cohabitant may not. (Cf. Rodriguez v. Bethlehem Steel Corp. (1974) 12 Cal.3d 382, 404-405; Elden v. Sheldon, supra, 46 Cal.3d at pp. 277-279.) Although it is easily forseeable that a child may suffer grievous harm when a parent is personally badly injured - similar to a spouse's loss of consortium - no recovery is allowed to a child for damages based on the immediate injury to a parent. (Borere v. American Airlines, Inc. (1977) 19 Cal.3d 441, 444; Zwicker v. Altamont Emergency Room Physicians Medical Group (2002) 98 Cal.App. 4th 26, 32.) And, while that same child may recover for personal distress if he or she witnesses the injury to the parent, a sibling who is not present at the moment of injury cannot. (See Dillon, supra, 68 Cal.2d 728, and subsequent cases.

This argument ignores the evidence that prior to the reconfiguration of the terminal, no hydrants were situated in the path of traffic. Rather, they were located in container storage areas out of the path of traffic. Thus, the absence of a large number of prior accidents involving fire hydrants would not be a material factor in determining whether the location of the hydrant was a dangerous condition. The City also points out that no other vehicles collided with this particular hydrant before or after Young's accident. We find no significance to this fact. The hydrant was exposed to traffic for only 30 hours before Young's accident and for two months after the accident. Following the accident, SSA requested that flashing barricades be installed in front of the hydrant until it could be relocated. It is not clear from the record whether such barricades were actually installed, but if so, such an obvious warning would undoubtedly have a bearing on the number of accidents."

For this there is no authority, not even Dore v. Thornburgh, which was an action to enforce a foreign judgment and predated the Uniform Act's recognition provisions by 75 years. Moreover, the suggestion that a shorter statute of limitations should apply to a "recognition" action than to an action seeking enforcement of the judgment after it is recognized is irrational, as it would completely undercut the Legislature's intent to enforce foreign judgments in like manner with sister state judgments.

Bonus Quote: From page 9 of the same case: "Northrop further argues that the Legislature's requirement that foreign judgments be enforced "in the same manner" as sister state judgments does not include time limitations, which govern "when" an action may be brought, not "how" it must be brought. Neither legal authorities nor common sense supports this proposition. The definition of "manner" includes "a mode of procedure" (Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary (1989) p. 724, column 2), and timing is a matter of procedure."Pamela Fasickhttp://email@example.com://calcivilquote.blogspot.com/2007/12/week-of-october-29-2007.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8242459716100707494.post-28700208380631765072007-12-01T19:42:00.000-08:002007-12-01T19:56:43.026-08:00Week of October 22, 2007"The record establishes that Arthur represented, both orally and in writing, that he was authorized to sell the property.

The right to redress grievances by placing them before the sovereign has been fundamental to Western Civilization since the 13th Century—since the signing of the Magna Carta.

Cruz v. Ayromloo (Oct. 3, 2007, B190959)
p. 9

Comment: The opinion makes it very clear that if the respondents had appealed the trial court's ruling that the fee award should be reduced because the respondents' counsel had agreed to represent them pro bono, the Court of Appeal would have reversed that ruling. In two lengthy footnotes that contain a multitude of citations Justice Johnson explains that pro bono representation should neither prevent nor reduce a fee award. It may be that the Justice, who retired two weeks later, wanted to do as much as he could to encourage future pro bono work before he left the bench. The successful respondents in this action were thirty-two tenants who were evacuated by the City of Los Angeles because the building they were living in was unsafe, and were then illegally evicted when the landlord refused to let them move back in.

Read my summary of the case

Comment: It is impossible to stress too strongly the importance of being familiar with and complying with the Rules of Court. However, this quote also represents an example of the unusual occurrence in which the party whose brief is criticized most harshly (the respondent) is also the party who wins the appeal. Not only was the award of $1.5 million in punitive damages to the respondent affirmed, but the respondent was awarded Brandt attorney fees for the appeal. That's no excuse not to be as careful as possible about obeying the rules of court, but it does provide some hope that even if you are having a bad day and not producing your best work, if the law is on your side, your client will prevail.

He does not, however, have the option of switching sides and suing a client on behalf of a third party, alleging that the very settlement that he obtained for the client in prior litigation actually belongs to the third party.

Pseudopod 362: Go, Go, Go, Said The Bird
by Sonya Dorman.
Copyright (c) 1967, 1995 by the Literary Estate of Sonya Dorman; first appeared in DANGEROUS VISIONS edited by Harlan Ellison; used by permission of the Estate and the Virginia Kidd Agency, Inc.
"Go, Go, Go, Said The Bird" was originally published in 1967 in the Harlan Ellison edited, groundbreaking anthology DANGEROUS VISIONS. She said of this story "Perhaps I wrote (it) because sometimes that's the way the world seems, or perhaps I hope that when my daughter's generation grows up it won't need or want to run for its life, or perhaps because, in the seventeenth century, Jeremy Taylor wrote: '…when it is enquired whether such a person be a good man or no, the meaning is not what does he believe, or what does he hope, but what he loves.' Amen.."
SONYA DORMAN (1924- 2005) was the working name of Sonya Dorman Hess. She is perhaps best known outside of the world of science fiction as a poet, with some of her collections in this form being STRETCHING FENCE and A PAPER RAINCOAT. One of her poems, however, "Corruption of Metals", received honors within science fiction circles by winning the Rhysling Award of the Science Fiction Poetry Association. Her best-known work of science fiction is the story "When I Was Miss Dow", which has been reprinted numerous times and received a James Tiptree, Jr. retrospective award nomination. She also wrote four books in the YA series ROXY RIMIDON OF THE PLANET PATROL. She said of herself "I have been a cook, receptionist, riding instructor, flamenco dancer and married. I like speculative fiction because I believe art and science should be lovers, not enemies or adversaries.".
Your reader this week – Heather Welliver – recently read "Dancing" for Pseudopod, one section of Pseudopod 293: Flash On The Borderlands XII – (Black) Arts & (Dead) Letters. Her website can be found here and those needing her professionally for voice-work may examine her profile here.
"Think of it, she conversed in great gasps with herself, leaping over a crevasse where a southbound lane had split off from the main runway. Think of it, she insisted, scarcely having breath left but unable to control her mind, which was galloping faster than her weary legs.
I'm only thirty, I'm unique, there's no one in this world, this universe, who is me, with my memories:"

What Are Your All-Time Favorite xoVain Articles?
It's gonna get sappy up in here.
I plan to pass down a lot to my unborn daughter who I'm not even sure if I'll ever have. Don't send a multiple sentence response to a one-syllable text. Don't be afraid to apologize. Don't use an eyelash curler in a car. That last one is super important, sweetie. Now go play outside. Mommy is busy.
I honestly do not know why I thought it would ever be a good idea to curl my eyelashes in a moving vehicle, but I did, and when my newly licensed friend slammed on the breaks, each one of teeny-tiny eyelashes was yanked from their root. First I screamed from the initial pain. Then I screamed from realizing a row of my eyelashes were sitting in my lap. Then I screamed because, oh man do you look weird with only lashes on one eye.
Of course, eyelashes grow back and it was not very long before this was just yet another story I was able to laugh about. Still, I was left with a pretty justified fear of eyelash curlers. Years of reading lady mags and beauty blogs taught me that curling my lashes was the best way to open my eyes and make me look more awake, but I was willing to look beady eyed and tired if it meant not having to step near that contraption ever again.
But, alas, fears are meant to be conquered! Except for lizards because those things are tiny dinosaurs that's messed up! Below are five products that once scared me and how I got over my fears. Basically, eyelash curlers are my bitch now.
The Product: Eyelash curlers
The Fear: That they would rip all my eyelashes out and people would say, "Did you hear about Michelle? It's so sad. She died because she didn't have enough eyelashes."
How I Got Over This Fear: No cars, no planes, no automobiles. I also make sure to remove all my eye makeup before I curl my lashes, even the bits of mascara I might have missed from the night before. Doing so helps to ensure the curler won't stick to your lashes and then pull your lashes from the root.
The Product: Curling rods
The Fear: Getting burned
How I Got Over This Fear: That glove they give you? Yeah, they provide that for a reason. Use it. Also be sure to curl away from your face. This will look better and will help make sure you don't get burns that look like hickies. No one likes to look like they have a hickey, unless you're at sleepaway camp, in which case you're just a prude if you don't have one.
The Product: Lip liner
The Fear: Looking like a clown
How I Got Over This Fear: Lip liner is not foolproof. It's a fool's kryptonite, actually, which is so frustrating because it looks SO GOOD when done right, but it is SO HARD to do it right. I took a makeup class with Sonia Kashuk about two years ago (I don't know either. Whatever.) and she taught us to start lining our lips very, very lightly from the center of our lips, rather than the corners. It was genius.
The Product: Self tanner (Oh, step down from your horse. You're no better than me.)
The Fear: Ooma Loompa Doompa Dee Dee
How I Got Over This Fear: I was born and raised in South Florida, so I never had to actually tan growing up. I just had to walk outside. When I moved up north, I was not used to seeing myself so pale. To note, I love pale skin. I think it's beautiful. But I don't get pretty girl pale. My skin is naturally olive tone, so when I lose color I just get green and sickly.
I got really into self-tanner my freshman year of college and quickly realized what a poor choice that was. Now I only use it twice a week, and use a high quality one. I'm partial to Clarins Self Tanning Milk. At $34 it is a bit pricy, but I've found that drugstore self-tanners make me breakout.
