Why Your eDiscovery Billing Process Is Leaving Money on the Table
Your approach to eDiscovery services could be draining your firm's coffers—and you might not even realize it.
Despite the growth of in-house discovery services in many law firms, firms still struggle with how to value those services, how to convey that value to clients, and how to best recoup their discovery costs. The result is frustrated clients, underutilized staff, and, ultimately, lost revenues. But these challenges aren't insurmountable.
Attend this webinar to learn:
+ Where firms are struggling to recoup eDiscovery costs
+ Tips for avoiding unpredictable and hidden pricing
+ Strategies for turning your discovery process into a revenue generator
+ Ethical considerations around eDiscovery billing

The California Consumer Privacy Act: Preparing for the CCPA
Sep 11 2019
70 mins
Eric Goldman, Emily Yu, Christian Auty, and Casey Sullivan
Some of the greatest discovery challenges today aren't arising from litigation, but from a new regime of privacy laws. The latest—and in some ways most challenging—of those laws is the California Consumer Privacy Act, or CCPA.
For organizations with even slight connections to California, and for those law firms advising them, the CCPA can create pressing new obstacles for compliance and data access.
Join Logikcull and an expert-packed panel for an upcoming webinar on the CCPA, the responsibilities it creates, and strategies to reduce the burden of compliance.

The End of Sanctions?
Jan 23 2019
67 mins
Mira Edelman, Craig Ball, and Casey Sullivan
Following the 2015 amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the amount of cases involving spoliation sanctions has plummeted. Today, cases involving discovery sanctions are only one third as common as they were during their peak in 2011 and 2012.

Today's in-house counsel are changing the practice of law. GCs and CLOs are leading the charge to implement new legal technology, to bring new efficiencies to the legal process, and to, simply, do more with less. Meanwhile growing in-house expertise and autonomy are changing the dynamic with outside counsel, as corporate clients demand to be treated not as advisees, but as partners. If you want their business, you'll need to keep them happy.
We want to help you do that. Join us for our upcoming webinar featuring Robert Schlossman, Chief Legal Officer at Zscaler, and Laszlo Kupan, General Counsel at J.D. Power, as we explore the 10 things corporate counsel hate—and how to avoid them.

By design, General Counsel of emerging legal departments wear so many hats it can be overwhelming. They are tasked with not only managing the internal and external legal matters impacting their companies, but they also need to stay on top of industry-related business trends and legal developments.

2018 eDiscovery Case Law Review
Nov 28 2018
64 mins
Judge Thomas I Vanaskie, U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals, Vincent Catanzaro, Morgan Lewis, and Michael Simon
In modern legal practice, the difference between failure and success can often turn on data. Yet after nearly two decades of eDiscovery case law and two related sets of revisions to the Federal Code of Civil Procedure, the bench and bar still grapple with how best to handle data in litigation, as the most important cases of the past year show.
From discovery processes gone wrong and new sources of sanctions, from anonymous messaging platforms to claims of discovery malpractice, the past year's cases are a reminder that discovery remains as critical, and sometimes as risky, as ever.
Join Judge Thomas I. Vanaskie of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit and a panel of attorney experts for an upcoming webinar surveying these cases and more.
Feature Presenter:
Judge Vanaskie was appointed to the Third Circuit Court in 2010, having served at the federal district court level in Scranton for 16 years prior. Over the course of his two decades on the bench, technology has dramatically reshaped how litigation is waged and disputes resolved. But Vanaskie has spearheaded efforts to keep the justice system up to speed. In 2005, he was selected by Chief Justice William Rehnquist to head the Information Technology Committee of the U.S. Judicial Conference, the policy making body for federal courts, a role he served until 2008. Judge Vanaskie may be best known in legal technology circles for authoring what is perhaps the most influential decision on the recovery of electronic discovery costs, Race Tires America.

Judge Peck and the Adventure of the Missing 502(d) Order
Jun 26 2018
59 mins
Judge Andrew J. Peck, Michael Simon
It may be the greatest unsolved mystery in the legal practice: the case of the missing 502(d) order. These orders can act as a strong shield against the waiver of privilege or protection when information is inadvertently produced during litigation—providing much more protection than a clawback agreement alone.
Yet observe the typical courtroom today and such orders will almost never be found. Why?
Join Judge Andrew J. Peck as he discusses the potential benefits of 502(d) orders, why and how to use them, and why so many lawyers are failing to fully protect client information during litigation.
About Judge Peck:
Judge Andrew J. Peck has been a leading name in eDiscovery since 1995, when he was first appointed Magistrate Judge for the Southern District of New York. Just a few months after taking the bench, shortly after O.J. Simpson's trial concluded and Windows 95 was released, Judge Peck issued a key eDiscovery opinion, ruling that companies must make electronic versions of their computerized data available during discovery.
In the years that followed, Judge Peck penned several widely influential opinions, from the first opinion approving the use of predictive coding in Da Silva Moore v. Publicis Groupe to a recent warning to the bar over boilerplate discovery objections in Fischer v. Forrest. Judge Peck retired from the bench in March and now serves as senior counsel at DLA Piper.

text: Tahita Jenkins was fired from her job as a New York City bus driver when she refused to wear pants or culottes for religious reasons in May 2007. Now Jenkins is suing NYC Transit for religious discrimination. Jenkins is a Pentecostal whose strict religious beliefs prohibits women from wearing pants. Jenkins refused the option of wearing culottes which she saw as "just another form of pants" and even provided "proof" that her Church was against the bus driver's standard uniform (which apparently doesn't even have a modest calf-length skirt as an option). She was fired despite her religious explanation. Is giving someone the option of wearing a skirt really that big of a deal? Who even sees below the bus driver's waist when riding the bus? Even male postal workers are allowed to wear skirts. [NY Post]

|SeniorNet & H.R.C. Foundation Bring Seniors in Chula Vista Across Digital Divide
Grand Opening of the SeniorNet Computer Learning Center at MAAC Project's 'Seniors on Broadway' Affordable Housing Development to Take Place June 17th
SANTA CLARA, CA – June 11, 2008 – SeniorNet, the world's leading nonprofit technology educator of older adults, with funding from the H.R.C. Foundation and in partnership with the Metropolitan Area Advisory Committee (MAAC) Project, a multi-purpose social service agency that promotes self-sufficiency for low and moderate income families and communities of Southern California, today announces it will open a new SeniorNet Computer Learning Center to bring free computer access and education to low-income, Latino seniors in Chula Vista, California.
The Grand Opening event and Open House will take place on June 17th, 2008 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the MAAC Project 'Seniors On Broadway' affordable housing community, at 845 Broadway, Chula Vista, CA 91911. All press and community members are invited to attend.
The opening of this scholarship-based SeniorNet Learning Center is part of a three-year grant from the H.R.C. Foundation to bridge the 'Digital Divide' by bringing the life-changing benefits of computer access and education to seniors of all backgrounds and ethnicities that are living in urban, underserved communities across the U.S. The H.R.C. Foundation is a private family foundation that funds programs for low-income children and families as well as older adults.
"We were very pleased to award SeniorNet with this grant," said Mary Leonard, consultant, H.R.C. Foundation. "Low-income seniors are victims of the 'Digital Divide,' which widens in communities where English is a second language. We've experienced successes with the scholarship-based, SeniorNet Learning Centers we've opened in Washington, D.C. and New Orleans, and we're especially pleased to provide this service to a Spanish-speaking community of older adults in Chula Vista, California."
"SeniorNet is grateful to the H.R.C. Foundation and is proud to partner with the MAAC Project to bring technology into the lives of seniors living in the Chula Vista community," said Kristin Fabos, SeniorNet Executive Director. "The MAAC Project 'Seniors on Broadway' location is a state-of-the-art, affordable housing facility that is a natural fit for a SeniorNet Computer Learning Center, which will provide seniors living on a fixed income with free computer instruction in both English and Spanish."
The 'Seniors on Broadway' affordable housing development in Chula Vista was opened in July and built on surplus Chula Vista school district property. 'Seniors on Broadway' provides 42 affordable apartments for older adults. In addition to computer access and education at the SeniorNet Computer Learning Center, the development offers seniors the opportunity to be involved in an intergenerational learning program with the students at the Chula Vista Elementary Charter School, located next door.
"The 'Seniors on Broadway' affordable housing facility is a cooperative effort between the MAAC Project, the city of Chula Vista, and the Chula Vista Elementary School District that not only provides essential services for seniors, but also aids in the redevelopment of the Chula Vista community," said Vicky Rodriguez, MAAC Project Director of Community Development. "We are grateful to SeniorNet and to the H.R.C. Foundation for their partnership with us to bring the added benefit of computer access and instruction to our residents as well as older adults in the surrounding Chula Vista community."
The scholarship-based computer lab at Seniors on Broadway in Chula Vista, California is the third of three such computer learning centers that SeniorNet has opened as part of a three-year H.R.C. Foundation grant. The first two scholarship-based SeniorNet learning centers of this grant were opened in Washington, D.C. at Emmaus Services for the Aging's Dr. Arthur S. Fleming Senior Center, and in New Orleans, at the Central City Economic Opportunity Corporation (EOC) Senior Center.

Oldest living Detroit Lions player talks about old-school football
Mike Kostiuk remembers when players were paid by the game
HAMTRAMCK, Mich. – The NFL is a lot different today from the time when Mike Kostiuk suited up for the Detroit Lions.
The 94-year-old Hamtramck native played both offensive and defensive tackle for the 1945 Lions.
"We wanted to play football. When you're in there and you're down low and you're hitting each other, you're pounding the heck out of him and he's pounding the heck out of you. One of you are getting a beating down there," Kostiuk said.
Back in those days, players were paid $20 a game. The press guide listed Kostiuk at 6 feet 2 inches tall and 220 pounds, but Kostiuk said he was actually 195 pounds.
"Today I couldn't be a water boy. We were the first Detroit team to beat the Bears twice in a season," Kostiuk said.
He was happy with the Lions when the Buffalo Bisons approached him about playing in a new league.
"I said 'No, I'm playing with the Lions now.' He said, 'We'll pay you $1,000 a game,'" Kostiuk said.
But even with that paycheck, Kostiuk quit because he was riding the bench and was too proud for that.
He joined the Hamtramck Fire Department and retired after 30 years.
He is still a fan of football, but thinks today's players need more discipline.
Kostiuk remembered the discipline handed out to a pal of his who gave up four touchdowns on his side of the line to the Green Bay Packers.
"So on a train, just like you're sitting across from me, and they walked up to him and said, 'When we hit Detroit,' this is the truth, 'When we hit Detroit, you can keep on going.' He got fired right there," Kostiuk said.
Despite all the aches and pains he endured, Kostiuk said he would do it all again. And he would certainly not refuse if he was paid what football players are being paid today.

Civilization in the distance
The pristine cruising grounds in British Columbia's Haida Gwaii Islands are a step back in time
Rounding Cape St. James, we stood off the rocky Kerouard islands, one of the two Steller sea lion rookeries in Gwaii Haanas. These giant pinnipeds looked like huge, golden slugs resting on the sun-warmed rocks. With over 600 breeding sea lions using this rookery, and because they are extremely sensitive to disturbances, we stayed well off and observed.
The waters around Gwaii Haanas are filled with marine life, currently more than 3,500 marine species. Humpback whales became almost a common sight, but we never tired of seeing them. Matt always brought us within a safe distance, stopping the boat to observe their antics. A pod of Orcas also chose to visit us but they were moving so fast they weren't around very long. And Risso's dolphins, one of the larger dolphin species, which usually stay offshore, frolicked around us.
Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve, National Marine Conservation Area Reserve and Haida Heritage Site is the only reserve in the world that protects from the top of the mountains to the depths of the sea. In an unusual collaboration between the Council of the Haida Nation and the Government of Canada, a consensus-based, decision-making model works towards protecting both the cultural and ecological heritage for future generations. This unique arrangement was brought about by the 1985 standoff between the Haida and the logging industry on Lyell Island. When we visited Hlk'yah GawGa or Windy Bay on the island, we saw the Legacy pole that was raised in 2013, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the agreement. It is the first monumental pole raised in Gwaii Haanas in 130 years.
All five of the Haida villages are unique and we were lucky to visit all of them. They are watched over by Haida Watchmen, a program that began in 1981 and which operates during the summer months. James, our Watchman's family on his father's side is from K'uuna Linagaay, or Skendans and visiting the village was a very emotional time for him, as he doesn't visit often. He showed us the ancestral home with its deep pit and fallen beams and corner posts, all moss-covered and returning to the earth.
During our time on Passing Cloud, we observed a wide variety of flora and fauna unique to Gwaii Haanas, including the elusive, indigenous Haida Gwaii black bear (ursus americanus carlottae) that we saw on our float trip up Burnaby Narrows, a biodiversity hotspot. The bear was ambling along the bank just above the intertidal zone and ignored us completely. As we hung back, he (or she) walked down and swam to the other side of the narrows, allowing us to move on.
With the strong tidal action through the narrow, 164-foot channel, the marine species are supplied with a constant stream of plankton and nutrients, creating an enormous concentration of life. With the water so clear, visibility is excellent but we had the added advantage of first mate Kyle's snorkeling ability, as he went overboard in a thick wetsuit and retrieved specimens for us to look at. Sea slugs, bat stars of many colors, a bizarre "decorator crab" and a huge moon snail. Of course, these were replaced within a couple of minutes to prevent any damage to them.
For those of us not keen to dive in, we got a firsthand look at the underwater world when we went to "the dock" for water. Expecting to see a marina-style facility, we eased onto a small floating dock tethered to shore with several hoses that brought water from the local spring! The biggest surprise though, was the marine life attached to the dock. Brilliant colored anemones and other creatures were clinging to the floats, in colors I only expect to see in the tropics.

You know, there really is more to the job than hanging out with artists but it just so happens that there has been a lot of hang time lately.
Lunacon was loads of fun. Dave Seeley did a great job as Guest of Honor. He was on panels day and night - slide shows of his work, progressions of paintings, industry info, prop making, you name it. He also had a massive exhibit in the show -- very impressive. Dave was instrumental in setting up the "studio" that hosted a number of planned and unplanned demos which seemed popular.
All the art programming I saw was well attended. I must say, Lunacon treats the artists right. I think last year's World Con had three or four programs items for artists over the entire four days - Lunacon had multiple tracks of art programming all day long, all weekend long.
Two of my favorite paintings in the exhibit sold -- the portrait that Donato had started at Art Out Loud and Dan Dos Santos' Spirits that Walk in Shadow. (Someone remind me to get a raise so I can buy more art.)
I got to meet a bunch of the conceptart.org crowd. Shout-outs to Shay, Brendan, and Ben. (Sorry if I've missed anyone.) I realize I've met some of you at Art Out Loud but my mind tends to be mush by the time we get to those demos. It was great spending real time talking.
Some random shots. (I'll leave out the wheelbarrow racing to protect the ridiculous.)
LEFT TO RIGHT, TOP TO BOTTOM: Dave Seeley and Dan Dos Santos, Donato, Bob Eggleton, Dan Dos, Shay Casey, Brendan Keough, Arkady Roytman, Dave Palumbo, Rebecca Guay.
Next up, some actual book covers, I promise.

and here I was, hoping to see the wheelbarrow racing. I mean, my abs still hurt from Dan trying to ride chariot style, so I hoped there was a decent picture of it. (though I think I collapsed before you could get the shot off).
Great to see you again, and to have some nice down time talking. I had a blast talking to you, Greg and Bruce in the bar.
- Bob Eggleton (Zillabob) said...
It was a fun show. MUCH better now we are back in the "Escher" Hilton(they call it this for the odd ways you have to go up and down seemingly hidden connectors and stairways that make you magically appear way across the hotel in an almost transdimensional way!) My only quibble was the scheduling of art panels as the con was closing down and people leaving. Other than that,Leigh did a great job. Let's hope his replacement next year follows the same path, as this was Leigh's last year.

Bob - Awesome demo! It _was_ nice to be back in Rye. But you're right about building - to get to my room I had to take an elevator to the 4th floor, walk down the hall and suddenly I was on the 7th floor, and then take an elevator down to the 5th. Crazy.
Ben - Great to see you guys there. We'll need to get the CT crew down to the Society one evening for a reunion. I don't seem to be able to attach images here in the comments so, here's a link to the moment of your downfall.
I like a game which you need use dofus kamas to play. If you want to be online to play this game, I can borrow kamasto you. When you have cheap kamas, and than you can go on this game. Of cause, when you are first to play, you can dofus gold. If you have enough buy dofus kamas, you will be able to different games.
Do you like playing the game where you need to use wow gold, when you do not have World of Warcraft Gold, you must borrow warcraft gold from friends, or you buy wow gold. If you get cheap wow gold, you can continue this game.
