With Los Angeles' Carmageddon officially over -- and not anywhere near as bad as the experts were predicting -- Hollywood took to Twitter on Sunday to express their thoughts about the 405 freeway's shutdown. The 405 was previously scheduled to reopen at 5 a.m. Monday, but contractors were able to finish 16 hours ahead of schedule. As a result, the freeway began reopening in stages at 11:30 a.m. Sunday. (The 405 had been shut down between the 10 and 101 freeways to tear down part of Mulholland Bridge as part of an effort to widen the freeway; Phase 2 of the project is set for next year.) STORY: Carmageddon: Interstate 405 to Reopen Early After the announcement that it would reopen hours ahead of schedule, many in Hollywood hit Twitter to share their thoughts about the closure and the predictions of massive traffic jams that never failed to materialize. Ryan Seacrest, host of American Idol: "405 will be reopened by 3pm today! 'LA has turned Carmageddon into Carmaheaven' - LA County Supervisor" Adam Levine, Maroon 5 frontman and The Voice coach: "Carmageddon was intense. Lets all put our heads together so we can start picking up the pieces. #STUPID" STORY: Carmageddon: Hollywood Shares Their Plans on Twitter Paget Brewster, co-star of Criminal Minds: "So in the end, it wasn't Carmageddon. More like Cardashian. A whole lotta hype but nothing real happened..." Marlee Matlin, actress, former Dancing With the Stars contestant and Celebrity Apprentice runner-up: "#Carmageddon is over. The 405 is open. Now if only Congress could work this fast. But I'm not holding my breath." Jason Pollock, writer-director-producer (The Youngest Candidate): "Reports are now saying that #Carmageddon is over but I don't believe it! I'm staying down in this bunker a few more days." Ethan Suplee, former co-star on My Name Is Earl: "The construction is done, the 405 fwy is open and the traffic in LA has gone back to being terrible. Carmageddon, can't wait for the redux!" STORY: Carmageddon No Match for 'Harry Potter' Andy Harris, producer for Premiere Radio Networks: "Glad "Carmageddon's over. Not because of the traffic, but because I felt like an idiot not knowing how many G's and D's are in #carmageddon." Mike Siegel, actor-comedian (TBS Movie Extra): "Carmageddon may be the biggest deal about nothing since Paris Hilton."

What is the difference between Batteries?
The latest development with Lithium-Ion (LI) battery technology has been the introduction of the Lithium Polymer based battery. Not only does the Lithium Polymer battery last longer, the battery is no longer limited to traditional battery cylindrical shapes. The battery can now be moulded into a customised shape to fit inside any product making it the choice for manufacturers developing the latest slimline and stylish devices. For best results and like with all other batteries, LI batteries should always have top up charges if put in storage for extended periods of time.
What is the difference between 25fps, 30fps, 60fps?
"fps" standards for Frames Per Second (or just Frame Rate). Simply put, a higher Frame Rate means a smoother and more detailed viewing experience. For example the old Merry Melody hand drawn cartoons could be anywhere between 8 and 12 frames per second and by today's standards look very jolting and un-natural. With more frames per second, movements can be made to look a lot smoother and life like. 30fps looks good. 60fps looks even better.
How much difference is there between 720p and 1080p?
These are used to describe picture resolution show the number of vertical lines. In the case of 720p, 720 lines are displayed. In the case of 1080p, 1080 lines are displayed on the screen which is probably the most common resolution on TVs today. 1080p is higher in resolution and will display a noticeably better picture.
Should I buy a SD card with the biggest Memory so I can record more?
For most cameras, you want the biggest capacity SD card so you can record more. However it is not a critical requirement for crash cameras as they cycle record and continually recycle space on an existing card. The need to purchase a larger card would come down more to the cost differential between sizes and any possible second use you may have for the card when not in use for example as a camera card or as memory for another portable device.
What are the Waterproof Ratings?
IP ratings show that a product has been tested to resist penetration by dust and water. As some will be better than others at this, the IP rating scheme provides a common definition and explanation about a products performance to standardised tests. IP is followed by 2 digits to define the level of protection against dust and water respectively. IP00 means no protection at all. At the other extreme, IP68 means total protection where the first digit 6 means it is totally dust proof and the second digit 8 means protection against high water pressure and full submersion. Please see chart for interpretation of the digits:

The nursing industry is teeming with opportunity. A fact recently discovered by the most recent graduating class from a nursing college in Pikeville, KY.
All fourteen students, the entire graduating class, at National College's Pikeville nursing college were recently offered jobs – even while waiting for licensing exam results.
The students of the nursing college graduated from their program in November and have already been successful at landing a job in the profession. They are still waiting for their licensing exam grades, but are hopeful because 100% percent of the students in the class before them passed the test.
One of the graduates, Jason Jude works for Williamson Memorial Hospital; a job he has held during his education at the school. He was offered a permanent nursing position at the hospital once the exam results come in. All of the other students were offered a position at another area facility, the Pikeville Medical Center.
The Pikeville Medical Center is honored with a couple of high-ranking awards within the industry, an honor that speaks to the quality of students graduating from the nursing school. The center is nationally ranked as the 7th Best Place to Work by Modern Healthcare, an industry publication, and tops the list of the Best Places to Work at a Healthcare Facility in the state of Kentucky.
The graduating class at the nursing school said they feel well-prepared for their careers and know what is ahead of them. According to the school's website, graduates Kayla Bryant says she wants to help others as she has been helped and Lora Little said she is happy she chose this particular nursing school. Little said she was grateful for the instructors at the school, adding that the nursing staff is exceptional. Some of the graduating students said they most recommend National College's nursing school program because of the faculty, staff, and degree of knowledge they have earned.

Hoverfly: Eristalis nemorum | Nature Notes from Dorset
There are five members of the Eristalis family likely to be found Dorset and they are all rather similar to the inexperienced eye! Quite often records will have an element of doubt about them as even specimens within the same species can differ in markings. The differences between species can be as slight as the width of the tibia (part of the leg!) or small markings on the wing. Not an easy task without catching specimens for microscopic identification. Eristalis nemorum is one of the smaller members of the eristalis genus. It is very common and found in a diverse array of woodland and grassland environments throughout the late spring, summer and in to the autumn. The segements of the abdomen seem to me to be much more pronounced with white bands in this species than in the other small eristalis species, arbustorum. In this species the male can often be seen hovering

So, why on earth am I even writing this? Well for one, I know there is a ton of misinformation out there about childbirth. I definitely agree that each woman and each labour is very different, and I can honour that fact as I too had three very different labours and deliveries. But certain forms of media have blown things way out of proportion in regards to the 'pain factor' and have terrified many woman (including me) into believing how 'bad' childbirth is.
Another reason I'm writing this post is because I believe women (again, myself included) cut themselves short on their level of 'brave'. I'm definitely one who does this – I think I can't do something, talk myself into not being able to do it, get super nervous and anxious because a little part of me wants to do it, but negative self-talk has taken over and I'm too chicken to actually jump in. So maybe this post will help some other women out there actually believe in themselves enough to do what they want to do and if that's pushing a baby out of their bodies without too much fear – then read on!
Before continuing, I just want to state that I am in no way a medical professional and that I have zero background in terms of medicine or nursing school. Really, the only birthing 'experience' I have to reflect on are the three occasions I did it. The first time was a spontaneous birth without drugs, the second time I had a planned c-section and the third time was also without drugs but enjoyed a few deep breathes of what they call 'laughing gas' (more on that later).
The next fact that I want to mention is that I am NOT opposed to having drugs during delivery. In truth, I LOVE DRUGS! This post isn't about why you should or shouldn't use drugs during labour. I fully support any woman who wishes to assist their delivery with whatever tools they need. I absolutely DO NOT think that I'm better than anyone because I didn't get them. So, why didn't I have them myself? Ok – we're getting to that. But I just want to reiterate that I'm writing this to answer questions about the physical feeling during a drug-free labour.
SO… the million dollar question: What does it REALLY feel like to give birth without drugs?
The best and simplest way I can answer this question is that it isn't as bad as many actresses make it appear. You know what I'm talking about about – the woman who is shouting profanities at her partner and yelling beat red-faced at the doctor and then transitioning into an absolutely ear piercing high octave murderous scream where you wonder, 'Is she actually dying?' No, not in my experience. It's intense, like seriously intense, but it's really not THAT horrific.
And when I say 'intense' I mean it. The contractions are doable and manageable but also unpleasant and frustrating. The most challenging contractions (called transition contractions) – are the longest and spaced closest together, but that stage of labour is also the shortest amount of time. (It's typically called the third stage).
They are annoying, sort of obvious but you can ignore them for the most part. They come and go and it isn't a regular thing, you could even rest and watch a movie if you wanted without being too bothered. Then, the cramping sensation starts to become a little bit more noticeable. I always feel excited at this point and I just kept telling myself – this really isn't that bad, this one isn't THAT bad, oh – you think that was bad? Just wait – that one was nothing. I guess I sort of played a mind game with myself. The feelings are definitely there, but it helped me to imagine that it's almost like the baby is being 'hugged' into position by your uterus. HAHA!
After a while (for me, it was seven hours with Scarlet, and about five with Maks), the contractions begin to transition into harder work. The stuff where you need a good distraction because you can't ignore the sensations anymore. I wouldn't call it 'pain' – it's not really painful during these ones – it's just really obvious and for a short period of time. Maybe a minute… tops. They say 4-1-1 is when you should call your health care provider or go to the hospital. Four minutes in between with a contraction lasting for one minute.
This next phase of labour is what all of the movies really love to bank on – the transitional contractions. The moments where she is just at her wits end, pulling her hair out, screaming at everyone, begging for drugs but it's too late to get anything. And here is what I felt.
Each of these 'transition contractions' feels like you're on a rollercoaster. You know you are starting to climb the really steep hill and as each second of the climb goes by, the more your abdomen clenches up. You are climbing and climbing and it's getting tighter and tighter until you don't think you can climb any higher (but you do) and you're at the top of the hill holding on for dear life. It's extremely intense but at this point you get over the little hump on the tracks and ride the coaster all the way down to the ground. As you continue to go the tightening loosens up and you feel better and better the closer you get to the ground floor. You only get to ride on the ground for a few seconds until you have reached the start of another 'hill' and you ride it up again. BUT remember, the transition phase with these big contractions is the shortest phase of labour.
Honestly, that's what it was like for me. FULL DISCLOSURE: In Scarlet's delivery, I turned to Nate and said 'I don't know if I can do this!' and he said right back to me: 'You're doing it right now! You're almost done!' and then it was time to push. In Maks' delivery, I was begging for drugs during the transition phase. I sort of lost myself and lost focus and didn't remember that it was temporary. According to a Healthy Birth Course that Nate and I took prior to the kids arriving, in that moment if you find yourself begging for drugs, you really only have one or two more transition contractions to go through. That was absolutely the case for me, and thankfully, after another one or two of those transition contractions it was time to push.
After the transition contractions I found that my body totally took over. For me, BOTH times I birthed without drugs, I shouted out 'I'M FEELING THE URGE TO PUSH!!!' I was scared to do it without permission because you may not be fully dilated or you may have a lip of cervix left to clear. But, pushing was a relief. It is without a doubt much more doable to withstand than the contractions. TMI, but have you ever experienced feeling really backed up and constipated? You're working hard to get that BM out and it's not really getting anywhere? That's about as close to 'pushing' as I can describe. Suddenly, at least for me, you feel a tiny bit of movement and then a bit more and then you feel as though there is a giant mass of baby emerging from your lady garden and it's just the biggest sense of accomplishment and excitement and massive natural high you'll ever feel. It's been said that this cocktail of hormones and emotions rival that of shooting up on street drugs. Yowza.
The 'Ring of fire'? I didn't really experience anything like that although my very best friend said that she did have the ring of fire when she birthed her first so again – every woman is different.
What I did experience was a cocktail concoction of extreme elation and joy and amazement and shock all wrapped into an explosive moment that erupted into cries of ELATION upon holding all of my babes – which was something I did not have when I had an epidural and spinal during the c-section. I have also read that the 'high' after a natural childbirth is a mix of adrenaline, estrogen, progesterone, oxytocin, beta-endorphins, prolactin and catecholamines… so basically a lovely hormone shot that lasts for a solid few hours – at least for me – after baby arrives.
I did tear a little bit on both natural deliveries but not enough to get stitches. My recovery from both my vaginal birth and last VBAC birth were MUCH easier than my recovery from my c-section.
SOOOOOO, why didn't I get the drugs?
Well honestly, I looked at all the strong, powerful, brave women before me (my mom for one who I absolutely look up to) and she also said to me – 'It's intense but it's really not that bad'. She gave birth four times (naturally), one was a breech delivery. I've always thought – wow, I would love to do that.
Secondly, I hated the thought of a massive needle going into my spine. I know, I know, those professionals are so talented and amazing at what they do – but signing that waiver when I HAD to get the epidural and spinal for the c-section was one of the most terrifying moments of my life. Like, 'Hi, I just met you and I trust that you won't turn me into a paraplegic because your hand was a little shaky due to the cup of coffee you had this morning. BTW, can I see your credentials? HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN STICKING NEEDLES IN PEOPLE'S SPINES?!'
Finally, (and this may rub people the wrong way), but I'm being honest here. I wanted to have those bragging rights for myself. I mean, not that I don't LOVE the fact that I have the chance to say (when asked) that yes – I did give birth twice without drugs. But, honestly, for me, for myself to be able to say and be proud of that fact forever. The fact that I'm a bad-ass-woman who pushed a little human out of her body on her own and believed in myself and my body enough to own that moment and have that for the rest of my life to build my courage up to do anything else I wanted to do – (wow, run-on sentence there), THAT was worth it for so many reasons. Mind over matter? Maybe. But no man could ever hope to accomplish something so great, and there would never be another opportunity to achieve a similar task on this level. I have heard women saying to one another, you don't have to be a hero in the labour and delivery room, no one will remember, get the drugs…and that is TOTALLY awesome. But for myself, even if nobody ever remembers what went down, I WILL. I feel like I did it for me, to prove it to myself. I am woman, I believed I could do it so I did it, the end.
If you girls have any questions about ANYTHING, I am an open book when it comes to this stuff and would be more than happy to write back in the comment section. If you are too embarrassed to have it 'public' feel free to contact me in the contact section at the top of the page. 😉

This post is more aimed at the multitude of Knowledge Management professionals out there, but I hope it also has some value to those who just wish we would help them with their problems.
In the last few weeks the doctor behind the very informative Brain Science Podcast has been using Twitter to say when she is doing her shift in the ER, (an example of how Twitter is finding a role in professional circles) but what stood out most to me was that Ginger is pulling a 24hr shift and that I had some definite Knowledge Management opinions on that fact.
The evolutionary science and psychology end of KM suggests to me that humans don't really function well knowledge-wise without sleep and we are deeply pulled by a circadian rhythm that probably goes back millions of years back in our development – so not something we can simply wish away or unlearn.
The point here is that KM must take into account who and what we are, and not build business processes that ignore our limitations and natural biases or preferences.
On the other hand, we could just assume that there are good practical reasons why Dr.Campbell is pulling 24hr shifts and pose a different KM question – how should knowledge be managed if we assume the agent is sleep-deprived, physically tired, and dealing with life-or-death situations?
Once we start down that road, a whole terrain of thoughts and follow-up questions present themselves.
– What kinds of things do we forget or remember wrong when we are tired?
– Should job aids be changed or presented differently?
– How will organisational memory be best served if the agent is unable to take time to make rich notes?
… but most of all
– How will we use situations like this to learn methods that can be deployed to other realms where the problems might not be quite so starkly illuminated.
This is where I see a double benefit of a Community of Practice of KM professionals – to jump in and help people like Dr. Ginger Campbell by using KM methods and principles, learn from situations where the risks and constraints are high, and then draw that learning back into the domains where we practice our craft for our wages.
A good way to drive beneficial innovation across the field?
So hat's off to Dr. Campbell for yet another 24hr shift in ER – but now let's put our heads together and see what we can do to help her.

Last week, my theme for my workshops at Walton, Cavendish and Newholme Hospitals was Wildlife in Winter. There are a few reasons for this. Firstly, that watching and enjoying wildlife is something that most people can do, even if they are not active. It's so rewarding and entertaining to watch birds on a bird table from the comfort of a window. Secondly, it was the week of the Winterwatch wildlife TV programmes, broadcast live from the snowy Cairngorms, and it was also leading up to the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch, which I encouraged patients and staff to take part in. I've taken part in the Birdwatch today in my local park. Read more about it here.
The patients and staff really enjoyed talking about wildlife, and I learned lots as well – some lovely stories, wildlife knowledge and folklore that you can read about in the poems below.
As the week wore on, we were enduring freezing temperatures and very wintry weather too, as it started snowing on Tuesday night and we woke up to a wintry wasteland on Wednesday.
By Friday, the snow had melted enough to allow me to drive to Bakewell to deliver a Dales Tales session at the Age Concern Centre in Bakewell. I thought they would enjoy the wildlife in winter theme, and they did, having a great discussion that carried on long after I'd left!
Good Companions
"One for Sorrow" –
You've got to salute a magpie
In case he brings bad luck.
The wood pigeon is a big bully –
Eating food the other birds need.
The chaffinch looks like a little old man
In a grey cap. He has lovely colours,
Russet orange, and a lovely song.
Sparrows come into the kitchen
To peck up crumbs, if I leave the door open.
They're good companions.
Their noisy chirping is a homely background.
The hedgehog has a face like a little granny.
Watching Wildlife
Blackbirds start singing very early.
The robin waits on top of the fence
For the gardener to turn up some worms.
The great tit sounds like a rusty wheel.
Sparrows in a mob – always falling out,
Flying off in a flock when something scares them.
Fox cubs playing first thing in the morning.
It's lovely to watch them.
Pecking Order
I like to feed bird: sparrows and blue tits.
The crows like to pick bones I put on the bird table.
The flocks have a strict pecking order –
One of them seems to be in charge.
Magpies take fledglings; take glittery things.
They attract attention to themselves.
Rooks have feathery trousers.
Blackbirds feast on rose hips in the garden.
I get a hard stare from the robin when there's no food left!
Good Morning, Mr Magpie
"Good morning, Mr Magpie, how your family?"
That's what you say when you see a magpie alone.
They steal fluffy chicks and unhatched eggs,
Fly in treetops, looking for pigeon nest to raid,
Listening for the sound of fledglings.
The blue tits are the gardener's friend
Eating aphids and caterpillars,
But my wife believed that birds were bad omens
And wouldn't let them in the house –
Apart from our parrot. He was an exception.
He would impersonate a motorbike
That passed the house every day.
She wouldn't allow a bird picture or ornament
And I had to keep my bird books in the shed.
Birds of a feather…
The crows calling in the tree
All saying "where's my tea?"
A mob of greedy starlings
Eating all the food, not starving.
They gather to roost at Longstone Moor
Synchronised flying, never unsure.
The skylark sings as it lifts to the sky
To drop and evade the predator's eye
The sweet melody of the blackbird's song
Reminds us of summer, when daylight's long.
The goldfinches twitter and fly in flocks
The "spuggies" perch in the window box.

The first time I saw you, I immediately fell in love with you. A beautiful, alert and happy baby face surrounded by the two biggest ears I'd ever seen. I had come to this land unhappy to have left my own, unhappy to have left my best friends behind. But Daddy said it would only be for a couple of years - four at most - and then we'd return home. This was a wonderful opportunity for him and he said it would be a wonderful opportunity for me as well as I'd learn more of the world and connect with nature. I didn't believe him. I wanted to go home and be with my friends whom I missed terribly.
But then one day sitting on the veranda when I was sad and wanting someone to play with, I saw you. And you made everything all right. That first time I saw you, you were a mere calf walking and playing between your mother's legs leaving whirlwinds of earth behind you that covered your tribe with dust. You looked so happy that I could swear you were giggling. And you saw me and I saw you wanted to become friends as well. But although you were a baby, you were so big that I was a little scared of you. Yet you were gentle, funny and fun. And in time I learned to trust you and you learned to trust me. And your Mama learned to trust me too and that was important. She was so patient with us. I laugh when I think of the times you'd become so excited while you played that she'd have to calm you with a nudge of her trunk centering you once again and reminding you that you were to act dignified. No matter what, you were to always act dignified.
And we grew up together in this land. We spent our days exploring. You'd pick blades of grass with your trunk to nourish yourself and attempt to feed them to me as well. Always so giving, you always shared everything with me. And what about the day you finally were able to reach a high branch and tore it in victory! In your joy you hit me on the head with it and off I went to get stitches. We laughed but Daddy didn't find it so funny. And those hot days when the Sun singed our skins, you'd flap your ears to fan us. And we'd go and swim in the river where you'd fill your trunk with water and spray me under the guise of bathing yourself. Oh, that was so much fun! I knew you wanted to play but knew Mama was watching all the time. You'd hear her admonish you every now and again, "remember, little one, you must always act dignified." But she just wanted to raise you right because she knew one day you'd become the leader of your tribe and eyes were watching, judging.
And despite your thick skin, I learned of your tender spots by your mouth and ears where your skin was paper-thin. I learned this because you trusted me and allowed me to touch it. I had never had a friend of your kind and you showed me that you too knew of compassion and love. You felt the same things I did. We were kindred spirits living a free-spirited life in this wonderful, hot expansive land of yours. I learned so much from you, dear friend.
And today I am finally returning home. Yet, I feel this is my home now for it is the land I've come to love and I've come to love it because of you. And I find myself stricken with sadness. The thought of never playing with you again fills my eyes with tears that are incessant in showing their love for you. I hope you will always remember me for I will never forget you. No more days of going on explorations learning the topography of your land. No more gossiping with you dear friend of the attention-grabbers and troublemakers of your tribe. You will no longer have me as your devoted companion. It is now time for you to finally integrate more fully with your own and begin the road to your destiny.
And I cry. I cry because you have meant more to me than words can ever express. I cry because my heart will now feel a loss that was once filled with days with you. But one day I will return. This, I promise. And I will carry this picture of us always, this picture Daddy took the day he joined us on one of our explorations, this picture that shows the tender side of you, the tender heart I've come to know and love. And I will show this picture to others and speak of you and tell them how you too possess the same qualities we have - the best ones - and how it comes so easily and unconditionally to you, something that does not come so easy to us. I will speak of all the joyous times we had together so they could see the beauty of you and learn to love you just as much as I do. And this picture will stay with me at all times along with the memories of you, until the day I return and see you once again. By then we will both have families and our children can get to know each other just like we did and learn to love each other just like we do. But until then, keep me in your heart dear, loyal friend and never forget me. Because as you roam and lay your footprints on this land, know that your footprints are etched deep in my heart as well.
Goodbye my dear friend. Goodbye.

West India Islands and the Approaches to the Panama Canal
This large folding map, issued by the London Geographical Institute during World War I, shows the islands of the Caribbean Sea and the approaches to the Panama Canal. The canal had opened to traffic in early 1914, shortly before the outbreak of the war. Protection of the canal against possible sabotage by Germany was a concern of U.S. military planners in World War I and, especially, during World War II. The map shows telegraph lines, undersea cables, and the distances in nautical miles of steamer routes from the key ports in the region to New York, London, Liverpool, and other destinations. British, Danish, Dutch, French, and U.S. possessions in the Caribbean are shown. The U.S. Virgin Islands are shown as still belonging to Denmark; they were sold to the United States under a treaty ratified in 1917. Inset maps provide detailed views of the U.S.-controlled Panama Canal Zone and of two of the most important British colonies in the region, the island of Jamaica and the mainland colony of British Guiana. The map of Jamaica is especially detailed and shows the borders of the island's three counties and the parishes within each county.

George Carlin Dead of Heart Failure
Monday, June 23rd 2008, 19:31 UTC Published in in English, link tips, notes, politics | 1 Comment
Carlin, who died at the age of 71, was an American author, comedian and actor known for his dislike of taboos and defence of Free Speech.
A recording of his Seven Dirty Words monologue, which after being aired by a radio broadcaster caused a 1978 American Supreme Court ruling establishing that the F.C.C. can regulate what words one (still!) mustn't use on regulated broadcast media in the US.
This is a good time for anyone who's unfamiliar with the US broadcast decency requirements to take a look at the silliness that shapes the popular culture we all consume.

Ehrlich Law Firm prevails in California Supreme Court on case involving important issues of California civil-writ practice and procedure. In a closely-watched case involving civil-writ procedure in California, the California Supreme Court adopted the position advocated by the Ehrlich Law Firm, and held that appellate courts can properly issue so-called "speaking" or "suggestive" Palma notices when they are inclined to issue a peremptory writ of mandate in the first instance. A Palma notice informs the parties that an appellate court is inclined to grant a peremptory writ in the first instance.
California Supreme Court grants petition for review filed by Ehrlich Law Firm
California Supreme Court grants petition for review filed by Ehrlich Law Firm. Adelamo Cabral was killed when he lost control of his pickup truck on I-10 and slammed into a big-rig truck illegally parked on the shoulder. At trial, the jury held that the truck's driver and owner were 10% at fault for the collision. The Court of Appeal reversed, finding that the trial court should have granted a JNOV against the Cabral family's wrongful-death action because there was no duty by the truck driver to create a "safe landing" for Cabral. The Ehrlich Law Firm filed a petition for review in the California Supreme Court, arguing that the Court of Appeal's approach would make California freeways more dangerous by allowing truck drivers to park their rigs alongside the freeway with impunity. The Court granted the petition, and the matter is being briefed. (Cabral v. Ralph's Grocery Co. No. S. 178799.)
Ehrlich Law Firm obtains important victory in asbestos lawsuit
Waters, Kraus & Paul, with one of the premier asbestos-litigation practices in the U.S., hired the Ehrlich Law Firm to argue an important products-liability case, O'Neil v. Crane Co. in the Court of Appeal, Second District, Div. 5.
The issue in O'Neil was whether sailors injured by asbestos released during the maintenance of valves and pumps that were manufactured to contain asbestos within them, and that were insulated with asbestos, could be held liable on theories of strict products liability and negligence, even if the asbestos material in the equipment had been replaced with other asbestos material during the product's life.
In Taylor v. Elliott Turbomachinery Co., Inc. (2009) 171 Cal.App.4th 564, the Court of Appeal , First District, held that the manufacturers could not be held liable because the asbestos was not "their" product.
Ehrlich convinced the court not to follow Taylor, and in a written decision the court held that Taylor had been wrongly decided. (O'Neil v. Crane Co. (2010) 177 Cal.App.4th 1019.) The Supreme Court later granted review to resolve the conflict between the positions advocated in O'Neil and Taylor. Ehrlich is expected to argue the matter in the California Supreme Court.
Ehrlich Law Firm convinces Ninth Circuit to submit certified question to California Supreme Court
Scott Minkler appealed the district court's order granting summary judgment on his claim against Safeco Insurance Company under a homeowner's liability policy. Minkler's claims arose out of Safeco's refusal to defend Betty Schwartz, whose son David molested Minkler. Safeco denied coverage because of an exclusion in its policy for claims arising from the acts of "an" insured, because David was a resident of Betty's home, and hence an insured under her policy. The issue in the case is the proper construction of a provision in the Safeco policy stating that "This insurance applies separately to each insured." The Ninth Circuit, at the Ehrlich Firm's request, has asked the California Supreme Court to decide the meaning of that provision. Minkler v. Safeco Ins. Co., 561 F.3d 1033 (9th Cir. 2009).
Ehrlich Law Firm obtains emergency stay from Court of Appeal for trial lawyer seeking to recuse trial judge
Ehrlich Law Firm obtains emergency stay from Court of Appeal for trial lawyer seeking to recuse trial judge. When a trial lawyer's case was transferred from one Superior Court Judge to another at the Mosk Courthouse, the trial lawyer filed a peremptory challenge under Code Civ. Proc. section 170.6. The trial judge ruled that the challenge was not timely filed, because it had not been made at the moment the transfer was announced – before counsel even had a chance to confer with his client.

January 2007 – The Court of Appeal in Los Angeles has reversed a trial court's order requiring that Mary Medeiros arbitrate her claims against Health Net, arising from the company's failure to provide her with timely medical care. Even though Health Net's enrollment form failed to comply with the mandatory disclosure requirements concerning arbitration clauses, the trial court ordered the case to arbitration.
The Ehrlich Law Firm filed a writ of mandate, which was granted in a published opinion. (Medeiros v. Superior Court (Health Net) (2007) 146 Cal.App.4th 1008. Medeiros is a victory for public employees, because it held that health plans that provide coverage through public agencies must comply with the arbitration-disclosure requirements in the Health & Safety Code and the Insurance Code.

Instead of boring you with a bunch of details and updates let's look at some before and durings....my favorite. The biggest transformation is of course tearing out the existing laundry room and opening up the kitchen and family room.
View from family room/fireplace. The laundry room was on the other side of that wall.
View from dining room of kitchen with a glimpse of the family room beyond the laundry room wall.
View of the eating area with the original desk area now opened up and made into more cabinets and a pantry.
On the other side of the pantry/cabinet wall is the laundry room. Accessed through the hall on the left which also leads to our garage. I mentioned before my husband let me take more than half of his office to make this possible. I am so excited to have a larger laundry space and mudroom.
The tile flooring is in, the first coat of paint (Benjamin Moore, Gray Owl) is on the walls and the cabinets are installed. As soon as the drywallers finish patching, and the painters finish their work the washer/dryer can be moved. It will still be a few weeks before the countertops (butcher block), sink, faucet, and cabinet doors and tile backsplash are installed but we can still move in and have a working laundry room in the meantime. Someday "lockers" will be built along the right wall but for now I am hanging hooks and putting a bench underneath. To be honest, this is a tight space so I may never want to add "lockers" We have enough space in our garage to add them out there so I am thinking I may add it out there someday and just keep the hooks in here. Lastly, a barn door is being installed in this opening to keep the flow.
This is the garage entrance (pre-painting) with the laundry room entrance shown just on the inside. With a standard door I think there would be a lot of congestion. Hopefully the barn door will allow the entrance to be open most of the time so people can easily get inside the laundry/mudroom or go straight into the house.
To the right of the pantry/cabinets is the foyer with a powder room (getting a complete overhaul too) and the entrance to the hubby's now tiny office.
The office
The basement walls have been painted and the ceiling replaced. I told the contractor this is the last priority since we don't need this space to move back in. Still to do are the entertainment cabinets, kitchenette cabinets, trim and major cleaning.
Also on my own personal To Do list is painting the trim and doors down here.
And this is what every other room of our house is like....packed full of crap and dust.
All of which somehow needs to be "put back"/cleaned by the time the baby comes.....in two weeks. Yikes! And I didn't even take a pick of our bathroom which is torn up due to the re-tiling of our shower because it was leaking into our dining room. I never want to see water again after this.

Spicy Tahini Noodles with Roasted Vegetables
This is my favorite kind of weeknight meal. Noodles tossed with a quick sauce, topped with an abundance of vegetables, and kissed with chile feistiness courtesy of the condiment shelf. Spicy tahini noodles. It's in high-rotation around here at the moment, and I'll mention some variations down below. The gist: make a simple, thinned-out tahini sauce, roast the vegetables while your pasta water is coming to a boil, toss and serve on one platter. If you like those old-school Chinese restaurant spicy peanut noodles, these are sort-of their tahini slathered distant cousins.
A couple things worth noting. I've made this with fresh udon noodles (delicious!), you see it pictured here made with whole wheat fettuccini (thumbs up), and I'm also convinced thick, wide rice noodles would be good. Feel free to experiment. I think the key is a substantial noodle – skip the angel hair, and soba for this round.
On the vegetable front, literally clean out your crisper, and play around with the different vegetables you use here. Just group them in neighborhoods. This way if some of the vegetables cook more quickly than others, you can just move them off the sheet pan.

The boxes of carrots and the veggie pressed juices were a clue, the mild aroma of hay fluttering down the stairs on a sunny but cold day should have been the clincher, but it was still a surprise to see rabbits at Markus Furber. The stars of the show. Lets be honest, who could compete with cute bunnies hopping around, chilling out or nawing on a bit of carrot.
However the clothes were still worth a look on their own. Inside a two room fairy tale that had a lot in common with Beatrix Potter meets The Mad Hatter lay some gems. Here was a collection that you could have strolled straight out of the door and mingled with the passers by out in Waterloo Place.
Simple earthy tones, mixed with the occasional splash of colour, but all centred on natural style leaf and fauna print, this is a collection that come the autumn will have you clamouring to be inspired by. It was also clear while the pieces could be stand alone as shown here at the event, you could very easily transition them into a deeper winter wardrobe, they will clearly work with long sleeves, coats, and thick tights.
When the mild chill starts to slip into the end of summer nights, and that morning dew starts to rise as I stroll to the station, this is one collection I will be looking back to and using as my wardrobe inspiration. Well that and by then I expect to have a zillion rabbits, an entire army of bunnies hopping along beside me in my AW15 best.

Bankruptcy proceedings can be a stressful time for anyone who is suffering temporary financial misdemeanours or more serious debt matters. Anyone can declare themselves bankrupt, however we must warn you, once you're declared bankrupt, there are certain occupations which you will not be able to undertake such as a solicitor, accountant, MP, director of a company and a financial advisor. This can result in many people losing their livelihoods over poor financial planning and management. Some people feel pressure not to declare themselves bankrupt as it carries a social stigma which can be damaging to their reputation. For this reason, it is imperative to seek professional and specialist advice regarding bankruptcy.
What happens when you go bankrupt?
- You will receive a copy of the Bankruptcy Order;
- You may be interviewed about your situation by your Trustee;
- Your assets can be used to pay your debts;
- You will have to follow the bankruptcy restrictions;
- Your name and details will be published on the Individual Insolvency Register; and
- After 12 months you are usually discharged from your bankruptcy restrictions.
Assets that formed part of your estate during the bankruptcy period can still be utilised to pay your debts. Depending on individual circumstances, you may be entitled to annul your bankruptcy before you are discharged.

Our insolvency team has years of experience and has overcome many challenges facing our clients, resulting in successful outcomes.

Inside "New Best Friends" — The Cast and Creators on Why Daryl Lies to Protect Carol
Daryl is itching for a fight.
He's "ready to just blow up everyone. He's ready to just fight anyone," according to Norman Reedus. But there is one cost he's not willing to bare: Carol's safety.
When Daryl learns of Richard's plan to lure the Saviors into open war during The Walking Dead Season 7, Episode 10 "New Best Friends," Daryl will do whatever it takes to stop it when he finds out Carol is the bait.
"There is nothing that will incense Daryl more than putting Carol at risk," explains Executive Producer Gale Anne Hurd.
In a new behind-the-scenes video, the cast and creators explain the significance of Daryl's decision to abort Richard's plan, as well as his long-awaited reunion with Carol.
Go Inside "New Best Friends" With the Cast and Creators
"In this episode, we're starting to see things fraying a bit between people who want to handle the situation one way and other people who want to handle it another way," says Showrunner Scott M. Gimple.
After Daryl forbids Richard from hurting Carol, he finds her and learns her reason for leaving the group.
However, her physical well-being isn't the only way Daryl must shield her. Since Carol is blissfully ignorant of what Negan did to Abraham and Glenn, Daryl has no choice but to "tell her what she needs to hear," Norman Reedus explains. "He lies to her because she's going to want to fight," and that's the last thing Carol wants to do.
Click here to watch the full video and learn more about the different ways Daryl protects Carol. Plus, see how a new group — the Scavengers — provides an opportunity for Rick… so long as he proves himself worthy.
The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9/8c on AMC.
Watch the latest episode now on Xbox One, Apple TV, Roku, AMC mobile apps and amc.com.

Looking for something extra special to give this holiday season? Dubspot's got you covered with this list of dream gifts for DJs and music producers that range from a 24-karat gold Moog to the Kyma sound design system from Symbolic Sound.
24k Gold Moog Voyager
To commemorate the 10th anniversary of their Minimoog Voyager synthesizer series earlier this year, Moog created a special version of the instrument that has actually been dipped in gold! The 10th Anniversary Minimoog Voyager has a 24-karat gold finish with a wood housing and high gloss and black piano lacquer. A showpiece to say the least. The above video shows the construction process that went into this limited edition of the Voyager; only 31 of these were made.
Buchla 200e
Buchla creates modular analog synthesizers that are known for their depth of patching capabilities and unique user interface. Depending on the configuration, the 200e series instruments cost in the tens of thousands of dollars and have been championed by artists such as Deadmau5, Trent Reznor, and Richard Devine. In the above video from NAMM 2012, Ezra Buchla (son of company founder, Don Buchla) explains some of the sequencing capabilities of the highly coveted Buchla 200e series modular instrument.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HHiXqcyu2M
Slate Raven MTX
Steven Slate's Raven MTX is a unique "Multi-Touch Production System" that combines a multitouch monitor and software with analog circuitry to create a hybrid mixing system with the best of both worlds. The center of the console is a proprietary touchscreen mixer and toolbar that work with most major DAWs. For connectivity you'll find four speaker outputs, multiple source inputs, 8 cue outputs, a 7.1 module for surround mixing and mastering, and console-top USB ports for thumb drives, dongles and external hard drives.
Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer
This is the analog drum machine that started it all. From the boom bap beats of "Planet Rock" to the crisp snares that are found on the latest trap records, the TR-808 Rhythm Composer is still providing the sound of today's electronic pulse, thirty years after it was introduced. The 808 was originally sold as a beat machine for guitarists at a reasonable price of a few hundred dollars. Today they sell for upwards of $3,500 for one in good condition. But most producers agree that nothing can imitate the sound of this legendary machine.
Kyma System from Symbolic Sound
The Kyma sound design system from Symbolic Sound is a graphical signal flow language for creating, modifying, and combining sounds, with control software that runs on Mac or PC. Symbolic Sound has been developing Kyma since the late 80s and it continues to grow and evolve today. One unique feature of the Kyma system is its use of an outboard box full of dedicated audio processing hardware to give it more number crunching power, allowing it to create audio output of stunning clarity and definition. However this is also what makes it expensive compared to a software-only system like Max For Live or Reaktor.
Notable Kyma users from the EDM world include Richard Devine, Kero, Cristian Vogel and Amon Tobin, to name a few. Tobin used Kyma in creating many of the sounds for his ISAM projects. As he explains, he used Kyma "to make playable instruments from field and foley recordings. An audio source is analyzed into its spectral properties using the TAU editor, then assigned various morphing, pitch and timbre properties that react to MIDI CC events."
What's on your list this year? Drop a note in our comments and let us know..

Tracklist / Press Release Art by: www.AlexHaldi.com "When you least expect it" was the quote that lingered in the two young men's minds, as they approached the door to success in an UNPREDICTABLE manner. Success refused to listen, but with the bestowing persistence of poetry behind sound and emotion, success did not look away. The young men began to tell their story in a loud fashion carried by their distinct voices to the ears of success and you the listener. It all began when things were LOOKIN UP, but personal anguish, struggle, betrayal and self discovery became the first out of many obstacles for them. The young men then began to reveal their pleasures and adventures as well, which aimed beyond SPACE JAM, a place that consists of club filled festivities, lust and temptations. Success shows a face of disgust and almost tells the affiliates to find another door but stops as they begin to describe the day after as a realization state. A realization of work needed to be done in order to achieve their goals, REDEMPTION was mandatory. Therefore, the two began to walk far away from the path of being YOUNG NAIVE and in the direction of the fortunate. They analyzed their lives and came to a conclusion that they just needed to CHILL. Music, a woman of great power, was someone they both admired, she had many forms and messages to relay to them. However, they also came to the understanding that she was, as of late, being mistreated and was in deep need of AFFECTION. Therefore, in order to do so they would have to challenge Hip Hop and all of it's selfish ways. Hip Hop was once a great admirable leader but chose to follow an unethical path which transformed her into SEINFELD, a being of thoughts of complete nothingness. After telling success their journey, success responded with an unlikely answer, an answer that has only been heard by very few before…an answer only some can dream of…"WELCOME IN"…amen.
