Wisconsin Labor and Industry Review Commission --
Summary of Wisconsin Court Decision relating to Unemployment Insurance
Subject: Judy K. Levy v. Dep't. of Health and Social Services, LIRC and Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District, Case No. 003-742 (Wis. Cir. Ct., Milwaukee Co., August 29, 1988)
Digest Codes: CP 360
Claimant was discharged in May 1987 and applied for unemployment benefits in weeks 23 and 24. The employer alleged misconduct and an Initial Determination finding misconduct was entered in week 25. Claimant received a claim card for week 25 but did not file it; she claimed later that she thought she did not have to file weekly claims because she had appealed the Initial Determination. Her appeal of the misconduct finding resulted in a finding of no misconduct. She asserted that after she received the Appeal Tribunal Decision finding no misconduct, but did not begin receiving benefits, she called the department and was told to wait until she received a "white card", and that she waited and it did not come. She asserted it was only after more calls to the department that someone told her she had to come in and reopen her claim. After claimant reactivated her claim in week 39, benefits for weeks 25 through 38 were denied because she had failed to give timely notice of unemployment and failed to report in person to initiate or reactivate her claim for benefits as to those weeks.
Held: Affirmed. The Commission properly held that claimant's failures to file her weekly claim and to report in person to reactivate her claim were not for "exceptional circumstances" within the meaning of the applicable adminsitrative rule, § ILHR 129.01(3). It is not disputed that claimant did not comply with the notice requirements. She received adequate instruction at the time of the Initial Determination. Her claim of misunderstanding is not an exceptional circumstance which allows waiver of the requirements. The conditions listed in the rule which allow a finding of exceptional circumstances are very specific and pertain to some fault on the part of one other than the claimant which might jeopardize the ability of the claimant to receive benefits. Although it is true that the rule states that exceptional circumstances are not limited to the things listed there, the Court nevertheless concludes that other possible exceptions must deal with acts or actions that would result in a deprivation to the claimant that are not attributable to the claimant.
Please note that this is a summary prepared by staff of the commission, not a verbatim reproduction of the court decision.

GPS tracking for cars isn't just for the police and special agents - it is increasingly becoming available to parents too. Consumers of all sorts have been getting their hands on this agile technology and have been implementing it in their leisure activities, in their jobs, and in the home. There is so much GPS can do for people that they are finally getting wise and putting it to good use!
One very interesting application of GPS tracking in the home is the use of a device in a car to monitor teen driving habits.
When parents let their teenager drive a car there are tons of things they have to think about. Will they drive safely? Will other drivers be driving safely around my teen? Who will be in the car with my teen to influence their driving behavior?
We can answer these questions when we are in the car with them, but what about when we can't been there? What about when they are driving home late at night from a friends house? Or coming home after the high school basketball game? Who is going to monitor their driving then?
GPS tracking for cars can, that is who.
Using GPS to monitor you teen's driving habits boils down to one word: safety. Teenage drivers have the highest crash risk per mile traveled when compared with drivers in other age groups. The problem is worst among 16 year-olds, probably because they have the least amount of time behind the wheel and are prone to risk taking behavior because of their immaturity.
The following chart from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety is telling:
As you can see, teen drivers are much more prone to be involved in fatal car crashes due to driver error, speeding, and having too many people in the car than any age rank up to 50 years old.
GPS tracking for cars can help with this if parents are willing to use this tool to prevent unsafe driving practices and enforce parental oversight on their teen's driving habits.
This would probably look something like this: A concerned parent installs a GPS tracking device like Zoombak in their teen's car. The parent goes into great detail with their teenager how they are expected to drive, what it means to drive safely, how to drive safely, and all the other important vehicle safety information the parent can think of. This is much, much more than simply asking your teen to take a drivers education class. It will involve a significant time commitment on your part where you spend hours behind the wheel with your teen instructing them in the safe operation of a vehicle.
Then, after doing this, you outline your expectations on how and when they should drive. Tell them that are not allowed to speed, have 3 or more passengers in the car, and can only drive at night under the strictest of conditions. Then you need to set up some consequences for them if they fail to adhere to these driving guidelines. It should be a graded system where severe or consistent infractions result in ever increasing restrictions on their driving privileges.
Now that you have taught your teen to drive safely and have set up guidelines for how to use the car, it is time to let the GPS tracker do the rest. Simply monitor your teenager's driving habits and when the break one of the rules - like break too fast, accelerate too fast, speed, or even idle the car for too long (yes, some GPS tracking devices for cars do let you know all of this information) - subject them to the consequences.
This is just old-school parenting combined with new technology. GPS tracking for cars can provide parents with the information needed to make informed choices about how to monitor their teen's driving behavior. Safety is synonymous with GPS tracking for cars.

Einstein was a refugee.
In 1933, Einstein was accused of treason by the Third Reich. He eventually found asylum in the United States.
Einstein and his wife also worked tirelessly on behalf of German Jews. They made visa applications and vouched personally for many refugees. On his life in exile, Einstein wrote,
"I am privileged by fate to live here in Princeton… In this small university town, the chaotic voices of human strife barely penetrate. I am almost ashamed to be living in such peace while all the rest struggle and suffer."
His final letter was to philosopher Bertrand Russell, offering his support to the movement to ban nuclear weapons. Einstein died on April 18, 1955.

Three of a Kind is a series that lists books, shows, movies, podcasts and even music that pair well together. Each post highlights a particular theme and lists fictional worlds (and music) that revolve around the theme. Here's something a little more mushy for a light sunday (said the lover of funny science fiction).
READ: Simon VS The Homosapien Agenda by Becky Albertalli
oreos + adorable protagonist + emails
Highlights: "White shouldn't be the default any more than straight should be the default. There shouldn't even be a default."
Simon is the most adorable character ever. I don't think I can emphasize this enough. The book had so much of positive energy and explored Simon coming out and dealing with the different facets of being a teenager in the best way possible.
WATCH: Inside Out
emotions as characters + sweet innocent Joy + life of a 11 year old
Highlights: Train of Thought
Adorable personified, literally. This show captures the workings of the brain in the simplest way possible- through animated characters that represent emotions. It's so basic in thought yet exploding with creativity in implementation.
Watch: The Secret life of Walter Mitty
adorable shy guy + imaginative life + goes on an adventure
Highlights: Skating in Iceland
There's a lot of whimsy in this movie and it will make you melt. Walter Mitty is a shy love struck guy who goes on an adventure and finds love. Its innocence and the beauty in the places he visits makes me forget how unrealistic the story is
While cutesy is so not my style, I think these cute stories are worth it. What would you add to this list?

Song: Bones
Genre: Indie Rock
Director: Tim Burton
Audience: Primary audience: 15-24
Director: Tim Burton
Audience: Primary audience: 15-24
Secondary audience: Fans of 80s music as the band take inspiration from that decade.
Year Released: 2006
Throughout the music video the performance element is linked to the narrative story. This is created by the lyrics Flowers sings, the lyrics Flowers sing follow the narrative as if the male protagonist is a younger version of himself and the band are in important locations to him during the relationship. As well as this the male protagonist and Flowers are never in the same place at the same time, this anchoring that the male protagonist is in fact Flowers. As well as this during the parts where the two protagonists are watching the film, at the outdoor cinema, the band is playing in front of the same film. This is anchored by the same shots can been seen after a cut away from the band to the two protagonists and vice-versa. However the couple and band are never in the same shot.
During the performance aspect of the video, the majority of the focus is on the lead vocalist, Brandon Flowers, which is a common convention. As well as this the audience focus on the bands skeleton counter parts. For example whilst Brandon Flowers is lip-syncing as says the lyrics "Don't you want to feel my bones" his right hand is a skeleton hand, this is pictured left. Another way this is anchored is if one of the band members is their skeleton counterpart the audience's focus is taken off the lead vocalist and now on the band member that is in a skeletal form, this is pictured above.
Despite this the majority of the audience's focus is on the narrative aspect of the music video. Like the performance aspect during the narrative element the two protagonists keep changing to their skeleton counterparts. Although once they have turned into their skeleton counterparts they don't turn back into their human form unlike the band. This happens from the scenes where the couple are on the beach till the end of the music video for the scenes which are on the film. This also happens during the scenes where the couple are watching the film footage of themselves from 1:48. This is pictured to the right.Film footage is also incorporated into the music video.
"Scenes from the films "Lolita", "Creature from the Black Lagoon", and "Jason and the Argonauts", more specifically the scenes with Ray Harryhausen's skeleton-men, are shown behind the band." and "The beach scenes from "From Here to Eternity" and "10" are recreated with skeleton figures."

CLT20: Ryan the man as Otago close in on Maroons
Doeschate proved his worth again by guiding the Otago Volts to a comfortable win vs Maroons, contributing with both bat and ball to take them to the group stage of the CLT20. Ashutosh Sharma reports.india Updated: Sep 19, 2013 09:22 IST
Ryan Ten Doeschate belongs to the fast-growing club in the cricketing world who can be termed as 'mercenaries'.
With the Netherlands still an associate member of the ICC, the emergence of T20 leagues around the globe have come as a blessing for talented players like Ten Doeschate.
On Wednesday, he proved his worth again by guiding the Otago Volts to a comfortable win, contributing with both bat and ball to take them to the group stage of the CLT20.
If he turned out for the Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL, he also plied his trade for Canterbury in England, Chittagong Kings in Bangladesh, Zimbabwe's Mashonaland Eagles, Tasmania in Australia and South African sides Western Province and Impi.
Explosive stuff
His blistering 64 on Wednesday came when the Volts were in trouble, needing 110 off 74 balls. Coming in at the fall of Brendon McCullum, Ten Doeschate wasted little time in settling down, carting spinner Kaushal Lokuarachchi for three consecutive sixes.
By the time he got out after a whirlwind knock lasting 32 balls, he had hit two fours and five sixes. James Neesham made (32) while Neil Broom and Hamish Rutherford added 25 and 20, respectively.
Earlier, Kandurata Maroons opener Upul Tharanga scored a well-paced 76 to not only hold up one end but also guide the team to a good score of 154.
Tharanga kept his calm as wickets fell around him. Shehan Jayasuriya (13), Kumar Sangakkara (13) and Dilhara Lokuhettige (15) were guilty of throwing away their wickets.
The Volts, on their part, did everything right and were able to apply consistent pressure.
They fielded well and the bowlers, led by Kiwi international Ian Butler, kept things tight by taking the wickets of Tharanga, Kaushal Lokuarachchi and Chamara Silva in the space of four balls of the 18th over to knock the wind out of the Maroons' innings. Ten Doeschate took two for nine.
Otago coach Vaughn Johnson told reporters after his side's win: "We came here with a lot of belief and a side that had prepared very very well both here in India prior to the tournament and also in Sri Lanka."

If you have a bullish short-term feeling about Coca Cola Co. (KO) when it is trading at $54.14, you might put on a bull put spread by selling the 55 put for $2.55 and buying the 50 put for $0.85. In this case, the maximum profit would be the $1,700 you received when you initiated the position.
The maximum loss would be the difference between strike prices less the $1,700 credit you received for putting on the trade. In this example, the maximum loss would be $3,300 (((55 – 50) x 1,000) – $1,700). For margin purposes, however, the maximum loss is considered to be the difference between strike prices-in this case $5,000-because that is the amount that must be available should the position reach a maximum loss.
KO trading @ $54.14

Gulf oil spill claims chief Kenneth Feinberg assured an overflow crowd of 250 spill victims at a town hall meeting Monday in Grand Isle that he will begin calculating final settlements in 30 days.
A commercial fisher said he has had to repeatedly raid his retirement fund and pay huge penalties to make ends meet.
Another fisher, Michael Frazier of Grand Isle, said he has received a single payment for $5,800.
"I made more money in the first two days of last year's shrimp season than I got for my six-month settlement," Frazier said.
Feinberg, who controls the purse strings of BP's $20 billion settlement fund, acknowledged there have been mistakes in processing claims.
"I'm trying to do the right thing," he said. "This is an unprecedented job. There are thousands and thousands and thousands of claims. But we're getting through them, and the money is going out."
The Gulf Coast Claims Facility has paid $2.9 billion to settle 168,000 claims, about a third of the claims filed.
The meeting was part of a two-day tour of the Gulf Coast by Feinberg to explain the compensation process and listen to concerns. He will hold another meeting Tuesday from 10:30-11:30 a.m. in Jean Lafitte at the City Park Multi-Purpose Complex, 4917 City Park Drive.
Karen Hopkins, a Grand Isle resident and seafood worker, handed Feinberg an online petition calling for his resignation.
"We don't feel like you have given us choices," she said. "What you have presented to us are ultimatums."
Feinberg countered that spill victims have a choice of three options.
They can file for a quick final payment of $5,000 for individuals and $25,000 for businesses to be paid within two weeks.
Claimants can also opt for a final settlement offer based on a formula to be finalized in 30 days.
The first two options require victims to give up their right to sue BP. Those who aren't ready to do that can file for quarterly payments through August 2013 as long as they can show proof of continued losses, Feinberg said.
Feinberg engaged in a spirited discussion with more than a dozen fishers and business owners who said they have not been fully compensated.
"We've paid out $1 billion in Louisiana alone. Somebody's getting money," he said. "It might be the wrong people, but somebody's getting money."
A prominent Washington, D.C., arbitration lawyer, Feinberg said he has increased staffing at claims offices in response to complaints about jammed phone lines.
Feinberg assured some exasperated claimants he would personally review their claims.
"You sound like a broken record: 'I'll check on it, I'll check on it,'" one man said. "I don't want you to check on it. I want an answer about whether I'm going to get any money so I'll know what to do."
With tar balls still washing up on Grand Isle's beaches, several spill victims said they are worried about the spill's long-term effects and think it is too soon to determine a fair final settlement.
Feinberg emphasized that those affected by the spill can continue receiving quarterly payments.

The FVMBA series is back. Last year was a great success, and we are much looking forward to the 2012 events.
Arthur took both the Overall and "One bike" category last year on his trusty Tallboy.
Arthur and Chris will be racing the series again this year, armed with the Tallboy, Blur TRc, and NomadC platforms. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have access to all three bikes. It is a luxury to be able to pick the best possible platform for each race format.
Marx Conditioning, SuspensionWerx, and Suspension Therapy are keen to support grassroots Enduro/Super D racing. The FVMBA has put a tremendous amount of work into this series, and it shows. The courses are excellent: punctual timing and results, great atmosphere, ridiculously cheap (too cheap!) entry fees, and an extremely committed group of trail builders that make sure race courses are in best possible shape before race day. To top it all off, great sponsors that contribute a wealth of prizes at every event. Can't beat that.

Those who are looking for an 'off-the-beaten track' holiday will find Serbia extremely welcoming. Formerly part of Yugoslavia, Serbia has been plagued by civil war and ethnic violence, and was once one of the more turbulent countries in Europe. Today, lively locals welcome visitors to their proud country, where historical and cultural influences have merged to create a unique Serbian charm.
The capital city of Belgrade, still scarred by the devastation of a long civil war, is lauded mainly for its vibrant nightlife. Although, being one of Europe's most ancient capitals that has seen Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires rise and fall, it boasts plenty of interesting sites.
Serbia encompasses beautiful national parks, spa resorts and some of the best skiing in Europe. The landscape of this verdant country includes alpine meadows, impenetrable forests, mountain lakes, glittering limestone caves, hot springs, and remote monasteries. The magnificent Djerdap National Park, stretching along the right bank of the Danube River between Golubackigrad and the Sip Dam, is definitely not to be missed, and the Djerdap Gorge is one of Europe's most spectacular geographic features.
During the winter months, those in the know head for the mountains along the Ibar Highway, to the snow-blanketed peaks around the village of Kopaonik. Developing a reputation as one of Europe's cheapest and cosiest ski resorts, it is ideal for beginners and intermediates, and also features the Josanicka Banja spa.
Once defined by its dark history, this gritty Slavic enclave is waiting to be re-discovered and explored by adventurous and fun-loving travellers.
The international direct dialling code for Serbia is +381. The international code for dialling out of Serbia is 00 followed by the relevant country code (0044 for the United Kingdom). There are local area codes in use e.g. (0)11 for Belgrade. There are GSM 900/1800 mobile networks available with good coverage in the cities, weaker in the southern areas of the country. Internet cafes are available in the main cities and towns.
112 (General Emergencies)
Languages Spoken
Serbian is the official language.
Duty Free
Visitors entering Serbia may bring the following goods without paying customs duty: personal baggage, clothing and jewellery; 200 cigarettes, 100 cigarillos, 50 cigars or 250g tobacco; 1 litre of alcohol and 1 litre of wine; medicine and perfume or eau de toilette for personal use.
Electrical current is 220-230 volts, 50Hz. Two-prong round pin attachment plugs as well as Schuko plugs are in use.
Climate Info
Serbia has a mostly continental climate with cold winters, long warm summers and rainfall distributed evenly throughout the year. Snow can be expected in the northern and upland regions between November and March. The southern part of the country has a more Mediterranean influence with hot, dry summers.
All visitors require a valid passport. Visitors may be requested to show a return or onward ticket, documents for the next destination and sufficient funds in hard currency to finance their stay. Visitors entering with tourist visas must also have hotel vouchers. Anyone staying longer than three days must register via a hotel or sponsor. Note: Entry to Serbia via Pristina Airport, Kosovo, may carry a different set of requirements, which visitors to Kosovo must check before travelling. It is highly recommended that passports have at least six months validity remaining after your intended date of departure from your travel destination. Immigration officials often apply different rules to those stated by travel agents and official sources.
Entry Requirements
US citizens do not require a visa for a stay of up to 90 days in Serbia.
British visitors do not require a visa for a stay of up to 90 days in Serbia.
Canadians do not require a visa to stay in Serbia for up to 90 days.
Australians do not require a visa to stay in Serbia for up to 90 days.
South Africans require a valid passport and visa to travel to Serbia.
Irish nationals do not require a visa to visit Serbia for a stay of up to 90 days.
New Zealand nationals do not require a visa to visit Serbia for a stay of up to 90 days.
Recommended vaccinations for visitors to Serbia are Hepatitis A and typhoid (except for very short-term visitors who restrict their meals to major restaurants and hotels). A reciprocal healthcare agreement entitles British nationals to free emergency treatment in Serbia, but due to the very basic standard of medical facilities, comprehensive travel health insurance is strongly recommended for all visitors. Tap water and unbottled beverages should not be consumed, and food should be well prepared and well cooked. Cases of rabid foxes and dogs have been reported in parks and the outskirts of major cities. In the countryside, visitors should take the necessary precautions to prevent tick bites.
Most visits to Serbia are trouble free, but it is wise to take sensible precautions with valuables, as pick-pocketing, car theft, purse snatchings and burglaries do occur in the larger cities. Protests occasionally occur in cities such as Belgrade, and travellers are advised to keep informed of current events and avoid large gatherings, as demonstrations can quickly turn violent. Those travelling to the south and UN-administered Kosovo are advised to check the local situation before departing. Kosovo declared independence from Serbia in February 2008, a move that has been recognised by almost 40 countries including the US and most of the EU, but has been opposed by Serbia as an 'illegal act'.

It is inadvisable to take photographs of any military or police buildings, personnel or operations in Serbia or Kosovo. Homosexuality is tolerated, but open displays of affection between same-sex couples are frowned upon. Visitors should carry their passports at all times for identification purposes.
Serbian business people and entrepreneurs are westernised in their approach to business dealings with foreigners. Keep in mind that operations can go slowly due to cumbersome bureaucracy. Most Serbian professionals speak English, so it is not always necessary to hire a translator or translate business cards. July and August are summer holidays and it is difficult to reach senior management during this period. Business hours are 8am to 4pm Monday to Friday.
Tipping is not obligatory in Serbian restaurants, but if you are satisfied with the service then leave a 10 to 15% tip. At bars and with taxis leave a tip by rounding off the amount.

Eight years ago, thanks to the money she was able to scrape together from refinancing her car, Annie Vick opened the first Pinocchios, a restaurant in Longmont that serves Italian classics like chicken marsala, spaghetti and meatballs, and manicotti.
Since then, she's been franchising, expanding into four privately owned locations across the Front Range. And now she's just opened another outpost in Littleton under a different name: Delvickios.
Vick gave the Main Street space a makeover to capture a homey Italian feel, building out a bar and bedecking the place with a red-and-gold color scheme and red-checkered tablecloths.

The newest eatery in the family of restaurants features a similar menu to its siblings, dishing up pasta, pizza and calzones with a few new items unique to that restaurant, including Archobellino Piatto, a combination of sauteed chicken, roasted red bells, onions and sundried tomatoes with radiatorre pasta.
Vick owns this first Delvickios, and she'll also expand her future franchise operations under that name, rather than Pinocchios, for interested restaurateurs.
The eatery, which has a full bar, began serving lunch and dinner earlier this week.

India 2005 - Heading to the tipping point
In the 2005 budget speech India's Finance Minister P Chidambaram mentioned the crucial role that over-the counter (OTC) derivatives play in mitigating the risks of corporates and financial entities. A strong signal of support from the government for the OTC market was welcomed by the industry, and it was hoped that this would provide development impetus to a sector lacking in legal and regularity clarity. But this may take some time, reports Nick Herbert.
Derivative trading is not new to India. There is a well-functioning derivatives market that resides on recognised exchanges and is regulated by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), which also regulates the capital markets industry. SEBI's remit, however, does not cover OTC transactions, which leaves these deals somewhat in limbo. Because they do not conform to the recognised definition of a derivative as being exchange traded, the instrument is at the mercy of laws and regulations dating back to the 19th century that characterise them as wagering or gambling contracts.
Once the legal status of these deals has been clarified it becomes a question of regulation and which entity is best placed to fulfil that role. It is fairly certain that the honour will fall to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), which already regulates the pro-OTC derivatives banking sector, interest rates and currency markets. The RBI is naturally placed for the job as it already allows trading in certain instruments.
Interest-rate products are actively traded and the market has witnessed stunning growth. The interest-rate market is dominated by Overnight Index Swaps (OIS) and swaps referenced to one of the major Indian domestic floating interest rates, the Mumbai Interbank Forward Offered Rate (Mifor). "As a best estimate, we reckon that daily trading volumes in Mifor and OIS reach up to as much as US$1bn-equivalent," said Sanjeev Bejaj, country treasurer at Bank of America's India operation. "That has grown from volumes of around US$200m just a year ago."
Such turnover suggests tight bid/offer spreads. According to Bejaj, trades out to 10 years are possible in both Mifor and OIS, with a bid/offer of 2bp–3bp in OIS to five years and one of 7bp or so thereafter. Bid/offer spreads in Mifor range from 2bp–5bp to the five-year maturity, and 4bp–7bp further out. Average tickets sizes are for Rs250m (US$5.8m).
Taking the market to the next level in terms of product development is hindered by a conservative policy adhered to by the RBI. Interest-rate options are expressly disallowed although foreign exchange options were given the go-ahead earlier in the year.
The specific case of interest-rate options serves to highlight some of the ambiguity seen in the Indian derivatives market. Whereas there is no OTC interbank market, notes with embedded options have been a feature of the capital markets (regulated by SEBI) for a number of years. Current restrictions mean that risk inherent in callable notes cannot be parcelled out and redistributed into the market. "Essentially, you can't usually be short volatility. You can buy options [cap and floors] but you can't sell them," said Vinod Aachi of Deutsche Bank.
The RBI has also intervened in some nascent markets. In April it put the brakes on the use of quanto structures. This sector, which represented only a tiny part of the overall market, had developed to take advantage of the relatively steep yield curve in the US. "The RBI is responsible for the health of the financial sector and it obviously thought that players' understanding of the US interest-rate market was not sophisticated enough," said one banker.
For many, the pace of reform is too slow – especially in comparison to the speed of development in China's derivatives market. But there is precedent to the decision making process.
While the Asian financial crisis of 1997/1998 was an epiphany to many of the region's central banks, India escaped the worst of the fallout and, for some, stands vindicated in its role as guardian of the domestic financial market. So whereas the rest of Asia's central banks have looked to the west and each other in their attempts to construct a robust integrated financial model, India has ploughed own path and followed its own timetable. "Some countries like to wait for demand to surface before constructing a regulatory framework, others like to establish an infrastructure in advance," said BofA's Bejaj. "Who's to say who's right?"
The time for India to develop an appropriate regulatory infrastructure will come, though. "Demand for the full range of OTC derivatives is growing, but it's not yet reached the tipping point," said Aachi.

(YouTube) (Newser) – "Can you love your neighbor as yourself and at the same time knee him in the face as hard as you can?" That question is posed in Fight Church, a new documentary about churches that promote mixed martial arts fighting among pastors, Huffington Post reports. The film's directors were surprised to find hundreds of churches that attract congregants and build community with fighting. "Beyond churches that had formal or informal fight ministries, we discovered innumerable churches that included MMA as a component of a men's program," said co-director Daniel Junge. While Jesus urged followers to "turn the other cheek," advocates of MMA church fighting say Jesus of Revelation provides a tougher image, and Biblical heroes like Samson and David showed their strength of the battlefield. "We don't fight out of meanness," a pastor featured in the movie tells ABC News. "We have no hate or bitterness in our heart." Most "fight churches" are evangelical, white, and have struggled with attendance, the New York Times reports. The Catholic Church and Southern Baptist Convention have criticized the fighting, but mainstream churches have "feminized men," says a pastor in the trailer. Says another: "Tough guys need Jesus too." (Read more fight club stories.)

My Sound Blaster Audigy SE (detected as an LE) in Ubuntu 9.04 had mixed up audio channels for Myth. Other programs worked fine, but Myth was using the wrong channels when using surround51. The following .asoundrc file in my home directory fixed the issue without messing with other programs on the computer.

We are likely to drop into a period of severe Depression and financial instability, and on the other side is a life with less energy, less wealth and a whole host of other "lesses" that make up our new normal.
The gridlock also reflects a growing gulf within the so-called developing world between the have-nots and the have-lesses, as "emerging" economies like China and India diverge politically from the interests of poorer nations, even as they antagonize the wealthier nations that have long been the biggest emitters.

Experience suggests that most people behave the same, and the work-lesses at least offset the work-mores.

Like other elements of childhood for the precociously gifted — private or home schooling, overstructured activity, and proto-professional training — edutainment products are part of a system that divides children into haves and have-lesses.
If we as a society decide we want to transfer wealth from the haves to the have nots or the have lesses then I would prefer we implement such a social agenda via government programs, and not try to do so within the private economy.

Spotlight: Broome + Bow
This one goes out to all the ladies out there – the ladies that look into their closets every morning and think, "I have nothing to wear" or spot a great outfit on the street and think, "I wish I could wear that." I recently got to sit down with two ladies who have been there before and understand your wardrobe woes. Anila Akram and Laura Lampe are the women behind Broome + Bow, a new monthly clothing subscription service that allows women to experiment with new designers and styles without the risk of investment. The duo met at their day job, a completely conservative consulting firm, immediately bonding over their love for online window shopping and the fact that their wardrobes were completely different than their colleagues. "My idea of staples were completely different from everyone else's. For me, black pants weren't a staple – I had to have tartan pants." Akram laughs, "I was always getting comments from people about how it'd be so great to have [that item] but in a much less risky way." And thus, Broome + Bow was born.
So how does it work? After filling out a style profile, Broome + Bow will send 3-4 designer pieces, including Theory, Clover Canyon, Clare Vivier & more, straight to your home for $49 a month. You'll have the entire month to test drive them with your wardrobe, wow your friends and afterwards, you can return them with the pre-paid package provided or purchase them from Broome + Bow for 20% less than retail. The beauty of the service is that you get the opportunity to try out looks you never thought you'd like or be able to pull off, "for example, [we'll send someone] a pair of boyfriend jeans that they would have never tried on in the store or a really cool, funky necklace. They'll wear it out with their friends and get tons of compliments and the confidence that they can pull it off." Laura explains. "It makes a world of a difference when a salesperson gives you a compliment versus someone at work or a person on the street because then you know it's sincere."
The service also gives women the chance to discover new designers, like Michelle Ross, but that's not where the service stops. Based on a customer's style profile and whether the customer considers themselves a style 'newb' or 'expert', Broome + Bow will provide style tips and advice on how to wear certain pieces. They've teamed up with a some well known bloggers to showcase how individual pieces can be worn, doing all the legwork and taking all the stress out of getting dressed. I had the opportunity to sample a package that featured brands like Clare Vivier, Lord & Taylor and more. What I really loved about my Broome + Bow package, was that I could wear all of the pieces at once or style them with pieces I already owned. Check out how I styled them below.
If you're interested in expanding your wardrobe and trying out new styles in a less permanent way, I'd definitely suggest checking out Broome + Bow:

That said, in coaching youth soccer, it is important to devote soccer

The combination off the two will pay dividends you can oly hope for at
present but from one who has coached spccer athletes at every
level, on the pitch and inn the gym, you have to remember that oone question: "What makes me special. If you can persuade players they are working harder than their opponents, there is a greater possibility of them feeling confident.

Top 5 Ways to Use Fennel Stalks & Fronds
Most recipes with fennel, like our Shaved Fennel, Roasted Tomato, and Pistachio Salad from yesterday, focus on the crunchy bulb, leaving us in a lurch when it comes to the leftover stalks and fronds. Fennel tops are tasty too! No sense in letting these greens go to waste. Here are some favorite ways to use them up.
The lacy fronds have a delicate anise flavor and are so tender that they practically melt in your mouth. Think of them as herbs, just like dill or tarragon. They don't hold up well to long cooking, but are best used fresh.
The stalks also have that signature mild licorice flavor, but are much tougher. To use them raw, I like to chop them very finely to break apart their tough fibers. They also do well if cooked.
1. Add the Leafy Fronds to Salads: Strip the fronds from the stalks and toss them in your next green salad. They'll add just the faintest hint of licorice to each bite.
2. Make Fennel Pesto: As Sara Kate would be quick to point out, any green is pesto waiting to happen. Try tossing fennel pesto with pasta or rubbing it onto meat before roasting.
3. Use Stalks and Fronds for Cooking Fish: Fennel and fish have been best friends since the dawn of cooking. Whether you're grilling, poaching, or steaming, laying a few stalks and fronds alongside the fish will infuse the fish with sweet fennel-tastic flavor.
4. Juice 'Em Up: If you have a juicer, you need look no further. You won't get a lot of juice from the tops (unless you have a lot of fronds!), but what you do get can be mixed with other juiced fruits and vegetables.
5. Save for Stock: If inspiration fails to strike, at the very least you can stick the stalks and fronds in the freezer and save them for the next time you make vegetable or chicken stock. It's not for everyone, but I really like the sweet undertone that fennel gives to stocks.
What are your favorite ways for using fennel tops?

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — The Duke Law School has announced a $5 million grant from The Duke Endowment, which establishes a named chair for the dean's position.
A news release from Duke University on Monday said the first James B. Duke and Benjamin N. Duke Dean of the School of Law will be David F. Levi, who has served as Duke Law's dean and a professor of law since 2007. Levi has said he will step down as dean on June 30.
Levi previously served as chief federal judge for the Eastern District of California, appointed to the bench in 1990 by President George H.W. Bush. Before that, he was a U.S. Attorney, appointed in 1986 by President Ronald Reagan.
Since its founding, The Duke Endowment has distributed more than $3.4 billion in grants.

Pretty much any wedding in Napa is gorgeous, but when you combine the awesome wedding venue of Auberge du Soleil with a drop-dead gorgeous bride wearing a truly amazing Vera Wang gown ... hmmm ... fabulous!
One of our newest Little Black Book photographers, Wayne Yuan sent us Susan and Erich's beautiful spring wedding. Enjoy!
From Wayne ...
Susan and Erich's wedding was not too big, not too small, and absolutely fabulous! With 80 of their closest family and friends, they celebrated their wedding during Memorial Day Weekend in the beautiful Napa Valley. Guests all stayed in various villas and quaint bed and breakfasts around the area, welcomed by friendly hosts and bottles of wine. The Bride and Groom rented a huge villa at the top of a mountain overlooking all of Napa Valley. The views were breathtaking—we were 1500 feet above ground and we could see miles and miles across the vineyards. Most of the wedding party and close friends stayed there with them.
The wedding day began at 5am for the ladies. They got ready at the Bride's family villa (that had its own tiny vineyard in front!) with makeup artist Aimee Lam. Susan's dress was a gorgeous ivory Vera Wang gown, feminine puff sleeves and layers of tulle gathered at the bottom for a tulip feel. Her birdcage veil and pearl drop earrings added a stylish touch to the ensemble. Her hair was left down in light waves, but pinned back slightly.
The day before the wedding, guests were invited to a wine tasting reception at the Villagio Inn & Spa where they enjoyed whites, reds, and a good reunion with old friends. One of Susan's close friends even made decadent sugar cookies for the occasion, flown in all the way from London! The rehearsal dinner followed at the Uva Trattoria where we were serenaded by a live jazz band and listened to heartfelt words from the father of the groom.
The ceremony was held at one of the most popular locations for weddings in Napa Valley—simply because the ceremony site is on an outdoor patio overlooking all of Napa, one of the most beautiful views in the area Auberge du Soleil . Lush baby-pink peonies and blue ribbons graced the aisles leading to the patio where the bride and groom would recite their vows. Susan and Erich first saw one another during a "first-look" session before the ceremony. His first remark was "That dress is so you!"
As Susan and the bridesmaids headed back inside to freshen up for the ceremony, a flute and classical guitar welcomed the wedding guests, and then the wedding party as they came down the aisle. One of the favorite moments was the ring bearer, in his adorable tuxedo shorts, running towards his father for his sweet reward (a lollipop was awarded if he walked down the aisle properly). With "ooh"s and "ahh"s, Susan met her groom at the patio edge, and with tears and laughter, they became mister and misses.
The fabulous Nancy Liu Chin designed the stunning floral decor. And don't you just LOVE the way the soft folds of the cake by Patisserie Angelica mimic the design of the Susan's gown (and bouquet)!
I really can't tell you how much I LOVE her dress!!
A BEAUTIFUL parting shot ...
Congratulations to Susan and Erich ... and a huge thank-you to Wayne for sending their wedding our way!
