Cato Brief Gains National Acclaim
Remember Bond v. United States, that typical story of adultery, federalism, and chemical weapons? Cato has actually filed four briefs in Bond, most recently last month, the last three making the point that the president can't expand federal constitutional powers simply by signing a treaty.
Our arguments are based on a 2005 law review article by Georgetown law professor (and Cato senior fellow) Nicholas Quinn Rosenkranz, the primary author of these last three briefs. It's certainly unusual for a law review article to play a pivotal role in a Supreme Court case, but, as those following Bond know, there's little "usual" about this case.
Maybe that's why the national media is starting to pay attention to our attempt to get the Supreme Court to be faithful to this particular corner of the Constitution: last week, the National Law Journal declared our Bond filing its "brief of the week."
For more on this case, and our arguments, watch the lunch panel we had on Friday, featuring Nick Rosenkranz and Chief Judge Alex Kozinski of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The Supreme Court will hear oral argument in Bond in October.

ABOVE: Premier Kathleen Wynne is taking aim at the federal budget as she prepares for an upcoming provincial election. Global's Alan Carter has the story.
TORONTO – Finance Minister Jim Flaherty made a deliberate decision to unfairly shortchange Ontario to the tune of $641 million in the federal budget, Premier Kathleen Wynne charged Wednesday.
"We're seeing a pattern of the federal government getting out of, I would suggest, the business of nation building, and particularly in this case turning its back on Ontario," Wynne said at a news conference with Ontario Finance Minister Charles Sousa. "We're here today to demonstrate that yesterday's budget is part of that pattern."
The minority Liberal government claims funding cuts in the last eight years of federal Conservative budgets have cost the province billions of dollars.
Read More: Seven highlights from this year's 'boring' budget
Ontario will get 18 per cent of its revenues this year from federal transfers, the same percentage it received in the mid-1990s, but Sousa said that's still a cut.
"The level of funding to the province of Ontario is actually going down on a per capita basis," he said. "That's the fact."
A key bone of contention between the two governments is a cut in the equalization payments for Ontario because of it's improving economy. In previous years, there was an unwritten rule that the federal government would guarantee 'total transfer protection' to make sure a province didn't get less money.
WATCH: Kathleen Wynne takes aim at federal government for "slamming the breaks on investment"
Flaherty changed those rules without any consultation, and when Ontario would be the only province to suffer, said Wynne.
"The federal government made a decision to treat the government of Ontario differently than it had treated all the governments across the country in the past few years," she said.
However, Flaherty rejected Ontario's arguments and said the province's Liberal government apparently doesn't understand how the equalization program works.
"We have not reduced transfer payments to any of the provinces," he said.
Ontario contributes more than $100 billion to Confederation, which is $11 billion more than it gets back through federal transfers and equalization, and just wants to keep more of its own money, added Wynne.
"All we're talking about is having a fair formula that returns some of those dollars to Ontario," she said. "We're not going cap in hand to anyone."
The Harper government was willing to invest in Alberta's oil sands and large energy projects in Newfoundland and Labrador, but won't partner with Ontario to develop the huge Ring of Fire mineral deposit or meet its infrastructure needs, said Wynne.
"Minister Flaherty seems to be focused on austerity, very much focused on his bottom line, and has basically slammed the brakes on investment, and that's to the detriment of the people of Ontario," she said.
WATCH: Conservatives questioned in House of Commons on commitment to provinces in 2014 budget
Ontario will spend about $10 billion a year on public transit, roads, bridges and infrastructure, compared with $500 million a year from Ottawa, and is "concerned that the federal government will not provide sufficient funding," added Wynne.
"You can see the difference in magnitude," she said. "When I talk about a pattern, I'm talking about those actions that seem to indicate that the federal government is walking away from that partnership with Ontario that is so necessary."
Ontario's New Democrats said both Wynne and Flaherty were playing politics and doing what's in the best interests of their parties, not their constituents.
"A pox on both their houses," said NDP house leader Gilles Bisson.
"Kathleen Wynne is playing the old game of blaming the feds for all her problems, trying to divert attention off herself."
Wynne said her attack on Ottawa had nothing to do with partisan politics, noting her predecessor as premier launched similar volleys against federal Liberal governments. She did not mention Dalton McGuinty by name.

My short story "The Fermi Paradox Is Our Business Model" is up now at Tor.Com. Aliens come to Earth with a very intriguing business proposition... but unfortunately, it's not quite so lucrative for the human race.
Here's the beginning of the story:
The thing about seeking out new civilizations is, every discovery brings a day of vomiting. There's no way to wake from a thousand years of Interdream without all of your stomachs clenching and rejecting, like marrow fists. The worst of it was, Jon always woke up hungry as well as nauseous.
This particular time, Jon started puking before the autosystems had even lifted him out of the Interdream envelope. He fell on his haunches and vomited some more, even as he fought the starving urge to suck in flavors through his feed-holes. He missed Toku, even though he'd seen her minutes ago, subjective time.
Instigator didn't have the decency to let Jon finish puking before it started reporting on the latest discovery. "We have picked up-"
"Just-" Jon heaved again. He looked like a child's flatdoll on the smooth green floor, his body too oval from long recumbence, so that his face grimaced out of his sternum. "Just give me a moment."

Feb. 17, 2007
PRINCETON, N.J. - After the final day of the Ivy League Championships, the Yale women's swimming and diving team finished in third place with 1122 points. During the final session, the Bulldogs set two more school records. Hosts Princeton won the meet with 1496 points, and Harvard finished in second with 1408.5 points.
As was the case with yesterday's events Yale's swimmers were on top form, swimming their fastest times of the season. But in three individual events on Saturday evening, Yale's swimmers were edged out by Harvard's and Princeton's.
Yale's first school record of the day came in the 200 yard breaststroke. Freshman Susan Kim, who narrowly missed out on breaking the Yale record for the 100 breaststroke Friday night, took the other long standing breastroke record away from Malindi Davies '98 Saturday. Kim's time of 2:15.89 comfortably beat one of the team's longest standing records, set at Ivy Championships in 199, and also qualified her for an NCAA B cut. But was narrowly beaten out by Princeton freshman Alicia Aemisegger.
Yale's two other second place finishes suitably came from two members of their senior class, swimming with their team for the last time Saturday. In the 200 yard backstroke, Moira McCloskey finished second in a time of 1:59.20, also qualifying for the NCAA B cut, but missing out on another Yale record by just a few hundredths of a second. Harvard's Lindsay Hart won the event and set a meet record with her time of 1:58.58.
In the next event, the 100 yard freestyle, captain Meg Gill finished in second place with a time of 50.53, behind Justina DiFazio of Princeton. Fellow Bulldog Jane Kim finsihed close behind Gill in third place, with a time of 50.71. The times of Gill and Kim also both qualified for the NCAA B cut.
Yale's second record of the day might not have come as a surprise. In the 400 yard freestyle relay, the Yale team of Jane Kim, Alexis Mann, McCloskey and Gill took first place with a new Yale record and NCAA B cut time of 3:23.16. The record gave Yale five new school records in all five relay events at the Ivy meet. It also means that Yale's senior class will graduate with at least one representative in each of the five school relay records.
Complete results from the Ivy Championship meet are available on the meet website.

The Alafaya Branch has a long history of providing library services to the East Orange County community. The branch originally opened in 1965 as the Azalea Park branch, situated on Lake Barton Road. From the 1970s through the 1990s the branch provided library services from shopping center locations. Ground was broken in January 1999 for a new branch, designed to be the prototype branch for future Orange County Library System branches.

In order to understand the workings of markets and the economy, one has to take on an 'economic mindset'. This introductory course covers the fundamental principles that economists use to understand and analyse economic behaviour. Understanding these basic principles equips students for further studies in economics and business. Topics and issues covered in this course include how individuals or firms make decisions about the demand or supply of a particular product, how we can judge the relative efficiency of different types of markets, how we explain why governments may need to intervene in a particular type of market while not in others, and how different government policies are more efficient than others.
This course introduces students to basic statistical concepts and methods that are widely used in economics, finance, accountancy, marketing and, more generally, business.

Students will learn to solve statistical problems in an EXCEL spreadsheet environment. This course provides the basis for further study of statistical and econometric methods.
During Summer Term, this course is available as General Education to students from faculties outside the UNSW Business School.

Macroeconomics studies the aggregate behaviour of the economy. This course provides an introduction to the economic analysis of key macroeconomic variables such as output, employment, inflation, interest rates and exchange rates. The important elements of the course include measurement of macroeconomic variables, the development of models and theories to explain the behaviour of macroeconomic variables, the use of empirical evidence in evaluating different models, and the role of government policy in seeking to influence macroeconomic outcomes.

This is a first level corporate finance course that looks at the essential aspects of financial decision-making. The course begins with the different ways in which companies can be structured and the differing types of ownership that exist. Thereafter, the principles and applications of financial mathematics are introduced and used to value securities and investment decisions.
Portfolio theory is used to provide a foundation for determining the relationship between expected risk and returns in financial and real asset investments. Dividend payouts and the choices between debt and equity financing, including methods of determining the cost of capital, are also covered.
Furthermore, this course includes analysis of the influence of the capital market environment, the implications of financial risk, taxation and the conflict of interest between managers and investors on the value and operation of businesses.
The course develops distinct conceptual frameworks and specialised tools for solving real-world financial problems at both the personal and corporate level. Illustrations from real-life corporate practices are used to highlight the importance and relevance of financial management to the realisation of personal and corporate financial objectives.
Examples include personal financial planning, funds management, capital raisings, portfolio selection of financial securities, private equity, public floats and the pricing of assets in the stock market.

Despite deaths of 13 Colombian soldiers, talks to resume
By Libardo Cardona, AP
BOGOTA, Colombia — Colombia's government announced that peace talks with Latin America's last major rebel army were resuming just hours after guerrillas killed 13 soldiers Saturday in an ambush.
The chief government negotiator said both sides would be back at the table on Monday morning.
The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, had announced a temporary freeze Friday over President Juan Manuel Santos' refusal to agree to a constitutional assembly and rewrite if a peace pact is struck.
That followed Santos' Thursday announcement that he was asking Congress to schedule a referendum for next year, to coincide with national elections, on a peace agreement should it be attained.
A presidential vote is set for May and Santos has until November to declare whether he'll seek re-election. His hopes to have reached an agreement by then have been dashed by slow progress.
On just one item on the six-point agenda in the talks that opened in Havana in November has any sort of agreement been announced — on agrarian reform — though details have not been released.
Chief government negotiators Humberto de la Calle told reporters Saturday evening that the FARC had "decided to return to the table on Monday at 8:30 a.m. to continue the deliberations normally."
Earlier in the day, a FARC column killed 13 soldiers in Arauca, an oil-producing state on the Venezuelan border, the military said. Santos tweeted his condolences.
The talks are focused now on political rights for the rebels in a post-conflict nation — including the insurgents' insistence that none of them go to jail.
The FARC has this month demanded seats in Congress and its own news media. But it also for the first time acknowledged shared responsibility for the country's suffering — and a willingness to make amends to the victims.
De la Calle referenced the gesture, which the FARC made last week.
"It is a topic very important to us, and so all that into account we are returning to Havana" to continue the talks, he told reporters.
Each side has dealt the other dozens of combat losses since the talks began. Santos was unwilling to grant the FARC a cease-fire after years of wearing it down managing Colombia's U.S.-backed military as defense minister.
Since winning election 2010, that military has killed what were at the time the FARC's top two commanders.

French, check. Unemployed, check. Obvious hacker name of "HackerCroll," check. The FBI has nailed their cuplrit, believed to have "gained control of Twitter" by hacking into both Obama's and Britney Spears's Twitter accounts last year.
It's not known whether he tweeted anything under both accounts—though we do know Britters' spewed out some random junk last year—with Captain Adeline Champagnat, a French police cyber crimes officer merely stating:
"His aim wasn't to make money. It was simply to show that he was able to access accounts of Twitter members. And the best proof of that is that he did screen grabs of certain confidential data which he tried to post on blogs that are reserved for pirates or hackers"
Next hacker exercise on the list: working out Obama's 4Chan account name. [Reuters]

How to Record Investment Sales in Quicken 2010
Quicken 2010 enables you to keep track of the sale of shares held in investment accounts. All you need to do is enter the information by following these simple steps:
Click the Enter Transactions button.
Display the investment window by clicking the Investing Center button and then clicking the Enter Transactions button. Quicken displays the dialog box used to enter investment transactions.
Select Sell – Shares Sold in the Enter Transaction drop-down list box.
Quicken displays the Sell – Shares Sold version of the investment transaction entry dialog box.
Enter the sale's date in the Transaction Date text box.
(Optional) Type a brief description of the sale in the Memo text box.
If you're selling all your shares, click in the Sell All Shares In This Account check box.
Give Quicken the number of shares you're selling.
Use the Number Of Shares box to specify the number of shares you're selling (if you didn't click in the Sell All Shares check box in Step 5).
Indicate the price per share that you received by using the Price Received text box.
With a little luck, your selling price is more than you paid.
Enter the commission or fee you paid to sell the shares in the Commission text box.
No wonder your broker does so well, huh? He makes money even if you don't.
Quicken calculates whatever you don't enter. For example, if you tell Quicken how many dollars you sell (by using the Price Received text box), it calculates the number of shares you sell by dividing the total sales amount by the price per share. If you tell Quicken how many shares you sell (using the Number Of Shares text box), it calculates the total sales amount by multiplying the number of shares by the price per share.
Enter the bank account into which you're going to deposit the sale's proceeds.
Open the To drop-down list box and select the appropriate account. (Probably, you'll deposit the proceeds into the associated cash account.)
Click one of the Enter buttons.
Quicken records your sale.

What to Do with Apartment Mold
What to Do with Apartment Mold
Property owners often do their best to keep their units clean for tenants and prospective renters. Unfortunately, they are not able to control everything. If something goes wrong or a leak is not found mold can develop. Apartment mold is a difficult problem to remediate and a hassle for everyone involved. If you do find mold in your unit there are a few things you can do in order to help take care of the problem.
Take Pictures and Call Your Landlord
When you're the tenant, proper documentation of any issues in your apartment is critical. That is why writing down issues and taking pictures is important. If you spot mold, the first thing you should do is contact the landlord. Be sure to email them even after you call them because this helps provide a paper trail. It is their responsibility to repair their property, but your rights will be protected as long as you have documentation and evidence.
Wait for an Air Quality Test
Before apartment mold can be removed it is important to discover what type of mold there is. This will help professionals be able to get rid of it properly. It can also help your doctor if you're having issues with the mold. Your doctor can help with the temporary health problems while the mold problem is being taken care of.
Document Everything
Most likely, your landlord will want to take care of the problem immediately. It is just good business practice to handle it as soon as possible. Some landlords may push back, however. This is why it is important to document everything on your end. If you need to speak with a lawyer in order to protect your rights things will go much easier if you have everything documented on your end. Legal action might even push the landlord into taking action against the problem.
Worst Case: Move Out
Moving out is a last resort option, but your health is the most important factor here. If you're having severe negative health effects from the mold and your landlord refuses to do anything about it even after the legal process begins then moving out may be your only recourse. You must notify the landlord that you are breaking your lease early and recruit that you get your full security deposit back. There is no guarantee the landlord will agree to these terms, but if you have filed a lawsuit against them you will at least have done all you can do.

This week, two bears presented us humans with an important lessons about their species. That lesson being that sometimes bears have a lot of chill, but sometimes bears have no chill whatsoever.
Above is a video of a massive and very relaxed brown bear happening upon a photographer in the Alaskan wilderness. He doesn't seem to mind the presence of the photographer, and hangs out for a bit to enjoy the scenery with his new buddy. "Awww," you may think while watching this. "Bears are so nice. I want to meet a bear."
Not so fast, buddy! You certainly wouldn't want to meet this bear, who stalked two Canadian joggers through the woods with murder in his eyes:
This bear is basically the animal kingdom's versions of an angry coke head who goes to a party just so he can bump into people and ask them what the fuck they're looking at. This bear should be avoided at all costs.
So be careful when you're out there encountering bears, you guys. Some of them will be neat, but some of them will be jerks. Kind of like people.

Info Photos News Forum 30 Reviews
Average Ratings
good standard phone
This is a perfectly good phone. For those of you having issues with its features being turned on or off, that is a problem with your account setup through your provider, and is no fault of the phone. It is also completely irrelevant what graphics the phone has, as Verizon tends to load the same software and graphics on multiple phones. Thats a software issue, folks, not the physical phone.
I am a Verizon Wireless customer, and this was a free phone elligible to members of a family share plan.
While it does not have certain features like removable memory, I think the camera quality is equally good to any other camera phone I have used. My battery lasts for several days, even when I seem to talk on it more. If you are having trouble with your battery, there is a good chance you received a faulty battery; it is not the phone.
It seems as sturdy as any other cell phone I have owned, and I have been able to customize it with downloadable ringtones, images, and pictures I have taken.
Overall I think it is a good phone for someone looking for a low-cost reliable device with all of the necessities, and a lot less confusion than some of the fancier models.
The only negative point I really have about it is that because it is not a major name-brand, I cannot find a snug-fitting cover that I like. Verizon provides a black leather one, but I was hoping for something in pink. :)
verry good!
i had this phone for 2 1/2 month, and i love it! the picture quality is great. connection is great. every thing is great. i would recommend any one getting this phone!
AD reviews continues below...
Ok for a beginner phone
I had the prepaid PN-215 from Verizon and it worked great. The phone in itself was fine, I just didn't like VW prepaid plan and the limited features it had.
External caller ID
Downloadable ringtones, games, wallpaper
Color resoloution
Speakerphone was not clear
Numeric key pad started acting up. I think it was the 7 on my phone that stopped working.
Ok phone with no few features
Use as work phone (PN-300). Limited functionality due to simple menu scheme. RF is ok, voice quality is ok. Rugged, I have dropped it many times and treat it rough in hopes of getting a different phone with bluetooth, but it looks and functions as good as new. The outside display is easy to read in sunlight.
-Decent battery life
-Calculator is no good, only shows 2 decimal places in results.
-Inside display is not particularly good.
Had it for 3 years
I give this phone a 5...
Because I have had over 9 phones at least
And this phone still never let's me down
Pictures come out wonderful
Easy to work with and very very sturdy.
Internet is quick the graphics are cute
The ringtones are wonderful and always have been
Never have had any problems with it.
Most of you who have it's the people you are getting the phone from not just the phone itself.
Wasn't cheap when I bought it like it is now...But I LOVE this phone.
not great, but not completely sucky
This was my first cell ever, so I was at first really excited and really amazed... but then i realized it wasnt too great either.
- kind of cute
- easy to find your way around
- good memory space
- buttons were kind of hard to push
- no service where it mattered
- couldnt turn of the camera noise
- bad camera flash
- cant text sounds
If you dont really text all that much, and you live in the city, this phone might be good for you. But otherwise, go with something else.
Snapper! more like Crapper
Ive only had this phone for a month, and it sucks [...]. I am very carefull with my phones, but this one is so bad. The extendable antenna sucks. When you loose service it beeps and there is no way to stop it. Which is a bummer because i have to have it turned off in school because of it. The camera is really bad. Theres no video either.There is one good thing about this phone though, it plays ring tones well. Now back to the cons, speaker phone sucks, external display is in black and blue not color. The glossy black shows finger prints very well, so your phone always looks ugly, after about a week or two you'll have to charge it every night which sucks if your on a long trip. Overall i gave this phone a 0.5 which i only because of the ring tones. If you asked me, i would say stay away from VM there phones are cheap and useless.
This phone is ok but....
I think this is one of the better phones from virgin mobile. It has some features that other phones dont have since vrigin mobile does not have a good selection.
flip phone
color screen
voice recorder
picture caller id
fun frames for pics
downloadable material
kind of clunky
scratches easily
pics are grainy(you expect that with a phone)
battery is OK
no aim (not important to me)
looks kind of old
Over all i would recommend this phone if you are a user that does not talk more than 30 minutes a week
Not So Great Service
I own this phone right now and i do not get that great of service in my house or outside, etc. The camera is decent for a prepaid phone and the speaker phone is ok. The ringtones though work excellent on my Virgin Mobile phone and our loud and clear. The battery works well for me so i dont charge it up alot. Games on the phone though are somewhat of a downfall because the controls dont work so well for me. Also my phone takes a while to turn on and that sorta bugs me. If i could get better service this phone would have prolly been a 4.5
I have the Verizon version of this phone (the PN-215) and this phone is the biggest piece of crap i have ever used! Verizon even had to discontinue it!!! (Hmmmmmmmmm i wonder why???) Well, anyways, I only have one pro. That is the fact that the phone has an outside screen. Other than that, the phone SUCKS! the speaker phone sucks, the quality sucks, the size sucks, and even the camera sucks! I dropped it once and now its all screwed up!!! I previously had a Samsung a650 and that was the best phone by far. It would not die, and this one seems to be as fragile as a Razor! DO NOT BUY USED PN-215!!! THE PHONE IS NOTHING BUT TROUBLE!

Ok. I know I haven't posted in a very long time, but it is not my fault entirely. I think part of blame belongs to Theresa. She forced me to adopt a kitten from our local shelter. Well, actually, she sent a link to the cutest kitten picture ever and baited me into going by the shelter. When I got there, this adorable kitten acted as if she had been waiting on me for a long time and was so ready to go home. Needless to say, she is now a member of the Regan family. She is just too cute, but she prevents me from cross stitching. She wants all of my attention, so I have to hold her and pet her instead of stitching. I am sure you all understand.
This is another project that has taken me away from my cross stitching. Isn't it too cute? A group of us decided to get together one Saturday and work on this little quilt together. Each of us would make our own, but at least the peer pressure would get us closer to finishing than if we were working alone. Great plan, but it didn't work. I finished mine this morning and just love it. Not sure if Sharon, Bridget, or Mari are finished, but I am sure Lisha will finish soon.
Here are two update photos. I have been slowly working on LK ABC Christmas. Maybe I will finish this before the end of the year. Maybe. Also, I have been stitching on the Quaker Christmas for a while and finally feel like I am making some headway. It will definitely be a 2011 goal.
Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!

- Yield
- Makes 4 servings
- 1 pound sole fillets
- Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Flour for dusting
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large shallot, minced
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1. Season the fillets with the salt and pepper and dredge them in the flour. Shake off any excess flour. Put half of the oil in a large sauté pan over high heat. When the oil is hot but not smoking, sauté the fish on one side for 3 minutes. Then flip and cook on the other side until just done, 1 to 2 minutes; the fillets should be golden brown and just cooked through. Transfer them to a platter and keep them warm in a 200°F oven while you make the sauce.
- 2. Add the remaining oil and the butter to a sauté pan and cook over high heat until the butter starts to foam. Add the shallot. Cook until it is golden and the butter is a pale hazelnut brown, about 1 minute. Add the orange juice and cook for 1 minute more. Add the lemon juice. When the butter mixture starts to foam again, remove the pan from heat. Season with more salt and pepper, if desired.
- 3. Put a piece of sole on each plate, drizzle with the brown butter, and serve immediately.
Invest in a fish spatula. Longer and wider than a regular spatula, it's the tool you'll need to prevent fish from breaking when you turn or lift it in the pan.

Andrew Woodley -- Otterbein Sports Information
MARIETTA, Ohio – The Cardinals scored 40 unanswered points and forced six turnovers in their 40-20 win over Marietta College Saturday afternoon at Don Drumm Stadium.
Otterbein University improves to 7-2 overall, 6-2 in the Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC). Meanwhile, the Pioneers fall to 0-8 in league play, 0-9 overall.
The Cardinals defense forced six Marietta turnovers, including five interceptions, and finished with five sacks in the victory. Senior defensive back Anthony Korpieski led the defense with a pair of interceptions to give him 14-career interceptions. He is now the Otterbein all-time interceptions leader, breaking the record that was held by Micheaux Robinson (2000-04) and former head coach Joe Loth (1986-90).
Up front, junior defensive end, and reigning OAC Defensive Player of the Week, Zack Grieves led the defense with seven tackles and a sack.
Junior quarterback Ben Sizemore returned to the lineup and finished the afternoon with 189 yards passing and two touchdowns on 12-of-19 attempts.
Senior Trey Fairchild led the Otterbein receivers with seven catches for 138 yards (both season-highs) and a touchdown.
Turnovers plagued the Cardinals early in the game. On Otterbein's first possession, Sizemore was intercepted for a touchdown and a muffed reverse on their second possession led to Marietta taking a 13-0 lead with 8:16 left in the first quarter.
Otterbein responded with 40 unanswered points. Korpieski got things started with a 70-yard kickoff return to the Marietta 10-yard line and sophomore running back Joey Robertson punched it in from five yards out to narrow the Pioneer lead to seven.
After a 30-yard field goal by sophomore Nick Ganus narrowed the lead to four, Otterbein took their first lead of the game when Sizemore connected with Fairchild for a 44-yard touchdown to put the Cardinals on top 16-13 with 11:26 left in the second quarter.
Turnovers would then plague the Pioneers as they fumbled the ensuing kickoff at their own 32 yard line to set up a 5-yard touchdown rush by Sizemore, giving Otterbein a 23-13 lead with 8:59 left in the first half.
Otterbein used interceptions by Grieves, junior Alex Cameron, and Korpieski to set up the Cardinals next 17 points to put Otterbein up 40-13 heading into the fourth quarter.
Ganus, who kicked a career-long 43-yard field goal against Capital, tied his career-long in the second quarter to finish the day 2-for-2 on attempts.
The Cardinals will conclude the 2012 regular season next Saturday, Nov. 10, when they host Ohio Northern University (4-5, 4-4 OAC). Prior to kickoff at 1:30 Otterbein will honor their football seniors.

Signs of spirituality in the workplace keep turning up: thousands of prayer or meditation groups; company-sponsored chaplains; conferences and executive training sessions that experiment with spiritual practices or how to incorporate values into decisionmaking.
Yet as corporate scandals capture headlines, this groundswell of activity has begun coalescing into a movement not just for personal growth but for fundamental organizational and cultural change.
A small global network of corporate leaders is emerging that is forging a new vision for business. As the world's most dominant institution, and the one most capable of rapid change, business must take responsibility for promoting not simply private gain but the common good, these leaders say. This means redefining business to focus on people and on decisionmaking based on values - like integrity, respect, intuition, and creativity. The shift involves going beyond maximizing profits to considering all stakeholders: employees, customers, vendors, shareholders, and the community.
Many see the push for change as the desire of people to lead lives more in tune with their spiritual values. "The pain and frustration around the workplace and the anger about corporations has grown dramatically," says Judi Neal, head of the Association for Spirit at Work (ASAW). "People want to find more meaning in work and to see business transformed to run on different principles."
While the goals sound similar to those in the growing social responsibility movement, the aim is for deeper change. Some leaders perceive a profound shift in the fundamental assumptions about reality - one that involves a new view that consciousness is causal and gives much greater import to individuals' inner experience. "Instead of what you see is what you believe, it's what you believe is what you see," says Rinaldo Brutoco, president of the World Business Academy (WBA), a California-based organization of executives and entrepreneurs (www.worldbusiness.org). Mr. Brutoco sees scientific materialism yielding to a respiritualization of society.
While only a small percentage of businesspeople would be comfortable with such language, these leaders acknowledge, there is a growing willingness to think that spirituality has positive benefits so long as there is no promotion of specific religions.
Here and there, individual firms are proving that prioritizing people and values breeds success. For example:
• A small regional Texas clothing chain called The Men's Wearhouse (www.menswearhouse.com) chose to create a new corporate culture 13 years ago. It shifted to offer top-quality clothing and made employee fulfillment its first priority, followed by that of other stakeholders. Putting those values into operation, the $64 million business has become a $1.4 billion international company. For the past three years, it has made Fortune's list of "100 Best Companies to Work for in America."
• In 1995, Unitel, a Canadian telecommunications company, was losing more than $1 million a day, with inferior products and services, and employee morale measured at one of the lowest levels of 500 North American companies. A new chief executive, Bill Catucci, led a dramatic turnaround by engaging employees in defining corporate values and developing structures to ensure they could live by them. The values they chose: integrity, customer delight, respect for people, innovation, teamwork, and prudent risk-taking.
By 1999, customer turnover had declined by 30 percent, revenues nearly doubled, and the company's value had quadrupled to $1 billion, according to At Work Journal. The firm, which became AT&T Canada, was also among the top five in North America in employee morale. "People are crying out for this," says Mr. Catucci of values-driven management. Now head of Regulatory DataCorp, he says the approach "is just as valid in Latin America and Europe."
• Some major companies in Australia and India are also in the vanguard. McKinsey & Co. and ANZ Bank have seen positive benefits from cultural-change initiatives. SREI International Financial Limited and the Times of India have introduced policies and programs to foster spiritual values.
In the United States, a 1999 study, "A Spiritual Audit of Corporate America," found executives hungry for models of practicing spirituality in the workplace without offending people; but lacking such models, many were afraid to use the word spirituality. Yet, the executives held very similar definitions of what it meant: "a total sense of connectedness in the universe; belief in a deity, and in a moral obligation to do good in the world," says Ian Mitroff, a professor at University of Southern California business school and coauthor of the study.
"We need to use the language of people in business," adds Richard Barrett, a former World Bank official who helped spur an international conference on spiritual values and development. "And values is where it is right now." In the past three years, his consulting firm has worked with more than 300 companies in 24 countries to help them create values-driven organizations.
Patricia Aburdene, coauthor of the Megatrends books, sees the rise of spirituality in the workplace as "a trend that is about to become a megatrend." She says it's reaching the "tipping point" for several reasons:
• The enormous stress people are under due to the economic and security crises of the past two years.
• Demographic data revealing a mushrooming segment of "cultural creatives" for whom values trump money and other trappings of success.
• Business leaders with their own notion of personal transformation or a spiritual path now bringing it into their institutions. (Spirituality in the field of medicine is a bellwether, she says.)
• A convergence of the movements of social responsibility and spirituality.
"All this is coming together to create a transformation of capitalism," Ms. Aburdene predicts. "The tenet of the Milton Friedman school that the sole purpose is to create economic value for shareholders is seen as having led us down the path to troubles, and this is compelling a rethinking of our philosophy of business."
Admittedly, the corporate world isn't rushing to sign up. "Even though you can show that those organizations with a spiritual orientation outperform others, even on the profit side, only a tiny percentage of business leaders 'get it,' " says USC's Dr. Mitroff. "It's a different mind-set between reactive, bottom-line-driven organizations and those that are more humane, driven by higher values."
Many business schools are even abandoning ethics classes, he says.
But numerous organizations are fostering the idea. The WBA is the oldest, founded 17 years ago. It has a center in São Paulo, Brazil; a graduate management facility in India; and a new academy in Croatia, where it will train executives from Eastern Europe.
ASAW, a professional association and a resource center for people involved with spirituality in the workplace (www.spiritatwork.org), formed in 1993, now has 50 chapters worldwide.
A newer international group, Spirit in Business (SiB), aims at changing the core priorities of the business world to focus on the good of all, says board member Terry Mollner. A pioneer in socially responsible investing, Dr. Mollner helped found the Calvert Social Investment Mutual Fund in 1982, the first such fund. But for him, social responsibility represents only half the loaf, since it doesn't address core priorities.
"The publicly traded corporation is really not a group of human beings but a set of contracts, like a machine," he says. "They give priority to the few at the expense of the many, and that's the contract they have with society. But we need to evolve a more mature system that gives priority to the good of all."
This is what SiB is about. It has held two conferences in the US, with another planned for Thailand this year, and has incorporated entities in the Netherlands, Australia, and the US that will fund projects. Some of its leaders are Buddhists, and the Dalai Lama spoke to the first conference on "Compassion or Competition."
Some, evangelical Christians in particular, concerned that the spirituality movement represents inroads of New Age thinking or Eastern religions, are also beginning to focus on the workplace. Last April, the Billy Graham Training Center hosted a conference for pastors and members of the International Christian Coalition of Workplace Ministries. They committed to focusing on "the new mission field of the 9-to-5 window in the workplace, where more unsaved people live than any mission field in the world."
Academic institutions, too, are getting involved. Yale University, for example, recently set up the Yale Center for Faith & Culture, with a focus on ethics and spirituality in the workplace to help people integrate the claims of their faith with the demands of their work.
The spirituality movement is in its infancy, Mollner says. But his experience with socially responsible investing convinces him that much is possible. The social screens that he and a few friends sat down and wrote in 1976 are now used by almost all investment funds.
"If this approach is more mature, it will slowly gather adherents," he says.
