E-Commerce Agreements
This article discusses various terms and conditions contained in many e-commerce agreements as well as related issues, pitfalls and problems. For sample e-commerce agreements, visit our legal forms section and follow the links.
If you are selling goods or services through the Internet, there are a number of items that should be included on your web site to protect your business. For example, you should identify your trademarks and copyrights, use care when referring to others' trademarks, make sure any privacy policy is workable and modifiable, ensure that terms and conditions contain the appropriate jurisdiction, disclaimer of liability, limitation of damages and arbitration clauses, etc.
A "legend" is one or more statements regarding ownership, etc. that appear on your web site. Almost always these should be placed on the main page of the web site so they are prominent; often they appear at the bottom of the main page.
Copyright Notice. Although copyright notices are not required, they are strongly recommended so that others cannot claim an "innocent infringer" defense by saying that they thought the work had been released into the public domain.
A copyright notice should be in the following form:
Copyright 2003-2005 Bruce E. Methven. All Rights Reserved.
You can also use the © symbol in place of "Copyright", but do not use just (c).
The first year that the work was created must be included. (Designating a first year later than the real one can invalidate copyright rights, so error on the side of the earlier year.) Subsequent years where substantial changes were made can be added either as a range (2000-2003) or singly (2000, 2002).
The "All Rights Reserved" provides additional protection in several South American countries.
Legends for Other Parties' Material. If you are going to mention other parties' trademarks or use other parties' material on your site, it's best to provide a legend stating that the names and material are the property of their respective owners, that you have no affiliation with them, and that they have not approved your site.
The purpose is to prevent accusations by those parties that you are implying they are endorsing your goods or services.
Of course, if you are mentioning other parties' trademarks, be sure to use the superscript SM or TM or the ® just the way they do with their trademarks.
Your Material. You also want a legend stating that you hold all other rights to the site, that your material and trademarks are not in the public domain and that unauthorized use of your material or trademarks is forbidden.
Links. Particularly if you are going to be linking to other sites that may be problematic, you may well want a legend stating that you are not responsible for the content on these other sites.
Protecting Your Trademarks.
You definitely will want to protect your trademarks on your web site by indicating that you are laying claim to them.
Federally Registered Names. If and only if you have a federally registered mark, an ® must be used after the mark to get the full legal benefits of registration. This symbol can ONLY be used for marks registered with the federal government. (Registration on a state register is not sufficient, nor is a pending federal application where the registration has not yet issued.)
Other Names. For names that have not received federal registration, your rights can be strengthened by adding a superscript TM(standing for "trademark" for goods) ora superscript SM (standing for "service mark" for services) after the name.
Using Other Parties' Material and Names.
Copyright Issues. Just because someone else's web page does not contain a copyright notice does not mean that the material is in the public domain. The only way you can be certain you are safe is by either getting express permission from the owner to use the material or finding a statement on that site that allows you to use the material. (Many sites allow you to use their material for non-commercial purposes only.)
There is a "fair use" exception to the copyright law that allows you to use part of another's person's work (not the entire work) without consent for purposes of review, comment, etc., particularly if the use is non-commercial. Basically, the more of the work that is taken and the more commercial the use to which it is put, the less likely that this exception applies. Because this can be complicated, talk to an attorney before trying to use the "fair use" exception.
Comparisons With Competitors. Note that you are perfectly free to refer to competitor's products for comparison purposes as long as what you say is true.
What you cannot do is use a competitor's name or trademark in your site's metatags or do anything that misleads purchasers into believing you are affiliated with that competitor.
Similarly, you can't link to other sites or use frames in such a way that it seems like someone else's web page is part of your website or material. In other words, it needs to be clear when a user is accessing material on another site.
Privacy Policy.
Privacy policies are not required but many sites have them and some users actively look for them. Whatever your privacy policy is, it must be truthful and you must be willing to live by it. All privacy policies should have a provision stating that you may amend them by posting the changes on the web site for a minimum period of time (often 30 days) before they take effect – and if the user continues to use the site beyond that point, the user is bound by the new provisions.
Terms of Use for "Community" Services.
If you are going to be providing your users with chat rooms, message boards, e-mail server lists or other community services, you will want to have terms of use with specific provisions.
Prohibitions. These terms of use should state that users agree not to violate any law, threaten or harass another user, post or transmit ads (unless the site allows that), impersonate another user, post false information, or do post anything that is pornographic, defamatory or that infringes on another party's intellectual property rights. Obviously, the terms should state that the site owner can ban a user for any violation.
Indemnification. The terms of use should specifically require the user to indemnify the site owner for any violations.
Disclaimers. The terms and conditions should make it clear that the site owner is not responsible for the truthfulness or accuracy of posts made by users.
Privacy. In addition, the terms of use should make clear that the site owner cannot guarantee that the real-life identity of the user will not become known.
Public Domain. In most cases the site owner will want the user to agree that any comments you post to any bulletin boards, blogs, chat rooms, email server lists, etc. associated with the site become part of the public domain.
Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The site owner can help avoid liability for copyright violations by others using the site by registering under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. (See http://www.copyright.gov/onlinesp/.)
Amendments. As with privacy policies, the terms of use should have a provision stating that the owner may amend them by posting the changes on the web site for a minium period of time (often 30 days) before they take effect – and if the user continues to use the site beyond that point, the user is bound by the new provisions.
Ownership of Work on the Site
Employees Versus Independent Contractors. If your webmaster/mistress is your employee when your site is created or updated, you own the work. That is not true with independent contractors: the contractor owns the work unless there is a written agreement to the contrary. (Without a written agreement, you have only a non-exclusive license to use the work.)
Assignment. Your agreements with independent contractors should not only state that you own the work, they should also include an assignment of ownership rights in the resulting product to your company. "Work for hire" clauses alone may not be sufficient.
In California many companies forego the "work made for hire" language because California Labor Code Section 3351.5(c) and California Unemployment Insurance Code Sections 621(d) and 686 treat anyone working under such a clause as an employee for unemployment and disability insurance purposes.
You may want to give yourself a power of attorney to sign copyright documents on behalf of the contractor as well.
It's fine to let a web contractor retain the rights to any underlying software or scripts that operate your site, so long as you have an irrevocable, royalty-free license to use them.
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act
The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA") requires websites to obtain a parent's permission before children under 13 disclose information. (Children under 18 should not be permitted to view information which is adult in nature.) Also note that children under 18 may not be bound by any agreements that you have. You ARE entitled to rely on a user's statement that he/she is over 18 unless you have some reason to believe they are not telling the truth.
Purchase Agreements
"Click-Through" Agreements. If you have an agreement for your purchasers on the web site, it is best to force them to step through a "click-through" agreement. These are the ones where the purchaser, as part of the purchase process, must scroll through the agreement and click a button at the bottom that says the user agrees to these terms. Alternatively, you can have the purchaser click a page that states that the user agrees to the site's terms and conditions, as long as it provides a link to those right there and a way for the purchaser to exit the purchase process if those terms are not accepted. If you do not do something like this but only post your agreement or terms and conditions on another page, you run the risk that the customer may later claim that they are not bound by those terms.
Implied Warranties. Unless care is taken, implied warranties can arise from material on the web site, other advertisements, brochures, etc. Because in many situations software is considered "goods", the Uniform Commercial Code may also automatically create warranties of merchantability (a vague warranty of good, fair quality) and fitness for a particular purpose.
Disclaimers. One way a purchase agreement can minimize or eliminate this problem is if it states that there are no other warranties except as expressly set out in the agreement, including any warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. (The latter two have to be specifically rejected.)
Disclaimer language generally must be conspicuous, e.g., in capital letters or bold type; otherwise consumers (and others) may not be bound by it.
Remedies/Limitations of Liability. Because claims by a disgruntled purchaser may be large relative to the amount of money the site owner is making from the transaction, the owner will frequently want to include various provisions to limit the owner's liability.
Replacement or Repair. One provision that can be used expressly limits the purchaser's remedy to replacement or repair of the goods or services at the seller's option. If this is not done, the purchaser may go out on his/her/its own and replace or repair – at prices far higher than the owner would incur – and then try to force the site owner to pay for it.
Consequential Damages. Another provision that can be added states that in no circumstances will the site owner be liable for special or consequential damages or lost profits (or lost data). Often the consequential damages (alleged lost profits, etc.) will be vastly more than the direct damage.
Liability Limit. Yet another provision can state that in no case will the site owner's liability exceed the amount paid by the purchaser. Obviously, this is to prevent damages that could otherwise exceed the amount the site owner receives from the purchase.
This should be a separate paragraph from the disclaimers of warranty, since some courts that strike a disclaimer clause will also strike a limitation of liability clause if they are part of the same paragraph.
Invalidity. Because some states (and countries) have laws limiting what can be done with disclaimers and limitations of liability (particularly with consumers), the agreement should include a provision saying language along the lines that if any provision is found to be void or unenforceable, then the narrowest portion possible is removed and the remainder of the agreement continues to apply.
Jurisdiction and Choice of Law.
Jurisdiction. The site owner should definitely have a paragraph stating that lawsuits (and arbitration) may only be brought where the owner's headquarters is located; otherwise often the purchaser can bring litigation where the purchaser is located. Particularly if the owner is selling to purchasers who are widely scattered, the licensor will not want the risk of being sued all over the country.
Choice of Law. The site owner also should have a provision stating that the law of its state will govern any disputes.
In doing this it is important to say that the state's law – excepting its conflicts of laws provisions – governs the agreement. Otherwise the state's law regarding contracts made across state lines may put the litigation in the purchaser's state.
Definitions. Arbitration, also known as "private judging", is where an arbitrator is appointed to hear evidence and make a decision that is generally binding on the parties.
Advantages and Disadvantages. Arbitration is often faster and less expensive than litigation. In addition, while court cases are a matter of public record, arbitrations are private. Some also feel that arbitration tends to favor defendants somewhat more than litigation does, which may be an advantage to a seller. In any case, if arbitration (and/or mediation) is desired, it must be specified in the agreement.
Class-Action Arbitration. The site owner may well want to ensure that the arbitration clause states that class-action arbitration is not allowed. Otherwise if there is arbitration, a number of other purchasers may join in.
International Agreements
International UCC. If the seller is selling goods to people or entities in other countries, the agreement should expressly exclude application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (sometimes called the International UCC), which imposes a number of terms that the seller may not want. It applies automatically otherwise (at least in those cases where the "goods" are involved).
Payment. Note that different countries have different rules about cancellation of credit-card charges; some have much easier payment-cancellation policies than the U.S.
International Arbitration. Where a U.S. company selling to people or businesses with no assets in the United States and there is a chance that the seller will have to take collection actions for a substantial amount of money, the agreement should include an international arbitration provision.
It is much easier to get a foreign court to enforce an arbitration award than a judgment obtained in the U.S. court system.
If international arbitration is desired, the agreement needs to state that the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards will apply. Otherwise enforcement can be difficult.
A list of countries that have signed the Convention may be found at http://arbiter.wipo.int/arbitration/ny-convention/parties.html
Note that some countries do not recognize this Convention – and some countries make it impossible to obtain enforcement in any case.

The Boy and I went and got our H1N1 shots.
I have to say that once we were all permitted to get the shot, the team that organized it had a really great system going. I just wished they had publicized it.
From news reports all you can see is endless lines, people waiting 4 and 5 hours for a shot. I was not looking forward to it. The first day I went over to the Y, I just drove through the parking lot and thought it was way too depressing to go in and wait in line. So I ditched.
The second day I was out getting blood drawn and figured I would bite the bullet and get it over with. When I got there there was a cheerful lady sitting at a table with what appeared to be stacks of business cards. (wish I had taken a pic, it was genius) They had 100 cards for each hour.
The stacks were appointment cards with times on them. From 10 am to 5pm. All you had to do was pick a time and take a card, for the next day. It was so simple, not sure why everyone was not doing it this way.
I got two and informed The Boy he was getting his as well the next day at noon.
Of course we were late, we arrived at 12:20. We filled out our forms and were given a number. There were only maybe 20 people ahead of us. We got our shots at 12:45 and were out of there by 1. (They wanted you to sit for 15 min, in case you took a reaction.
Someone needs to share this system with the rest of the country.

NEW COURSE - Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Conservation
Published: 6 years ago | 0 comments
By 2050, the global population will reach 9.6 billion people. To feed an increasingly affluent global population, we will need 70% more food production and doubling of inputs, available water, and arable land, which will increasingly come at the expense of natural systems. This is made more complicated as the planet itself is undergoing vast biological and physical changes due to climate change and environmental degradation. These changes have profound consequences for food security, water availability, and global health.
Yet, despite billions of dollars spent on conservation and development efforts, our solutions continue to be incremental while the challenges increase exponentially. Some of the world's most critical species are in danger of extinction due to habitat loss, invasive species, exploitation and wildlife trafficking, and global climate change. Conservation research or practice in its current form is not nearly fast or effective enough. Similarly, development efforts require us to rethink the entire model of how we provide meat, dairy, refrigeration, and air conditioning to the new middle classes emerging out of the bottom billions. We also need to confront an exponentially growing gap between those connected to knowledge and resources, and those who are not.
Innovation and Entrepreneurship for Conservation & Development will focus on understanding the current problem sets in conservation and development, rethinking assumptions about how to address them, and looking at real case examples of how entrepreneurs and innovators have taken novel approaches to address them. Students will learn ways to harness the unprecedented acceleration and democratization of science, technology, and connectivity, and innovative financial approaches, to address global challenges. The course is team-oriented. After studying cases, student teams will propose their own startups to address global challenges, which will be presented before a panel of VCs and foundation officers.
Alex Dehgan, the former Chief Scientist of the US Agency for International Development, and helped create the first national park in Afghanistan, will teach the course based on his expertise and work as the first Chief Scientist in two decades at USAID. Admission is by consent only, after providing the instructor with justification for participation. This will be a one-time only course at the University. The course will be open to professional students across the university, as well as Trinity seniors and juniors.

Patient Wait Times
Problem Identified
An outpatient arrives at the facility at the requested time and registers successfully, but is then aggravated by a long wait prior to being brought back to pre-op. The excessive wait time increases the patient's anxiety and diminishes patient safety and satisfaction.
Solution Implemented
The real-time tracking of patients was activated upon check-in. In addition, each patients' arrival and registration statuses were displayed in real-time on the OR schedule and made transparent to the pre-op nurses. Patients were then transferred from the waiting area immediately upon completion of registration and the first availability of a pre-op nurse.

Holmes Report 11 Feb 2015 // 9:53AM GMT
MADRID—Spanish PR firm Inforpress has opened new offices in Washington DC and Brussels as the latest steps in its ambitious international expansion plan.
The operations will focus on public affairs, and take Inforpress' global network to 300 professionals in 11 countries.
The Inforpress operation in Washington DC is led by Javier Salgado, who has been with the firm since 2000, most recently coordinating its Andean presence.
In Brussels, meanwhile, Inforpress will be headed by European affairs specialist Ángel Rebollo, who previously worked as an advisor in the European Parliament from 2009 to 2014. Rebello was external trade technician for the Federation of Spanish Chambers of Commerce in Europe at its Brussels HQ.
"We are growing to follow our clients on their strategic projects because, as they are mainly big Iberian-American and European multinational companies, they increasingly need a specialized consultancy near the most important decision making organizations," said Núria Vilanova, Inforpress president and founder.
"For this reason, we decided to open offices in Brussels and Washington D.C. where we hope to represent them and follow closely the key topics facing institutions and multilateral bodies. Inforpress has to be present where the most important decisions are made."

Sleep is one of the most important issues for muscle growth and repair. When we sleep a few things happen to us that are very important biological processes that make growth during this key time critical for anyone who wants to get the most out of their workouts.
Quality sleep reduces cortisol and other stress hormones. At night is when the cortisol levels start to rise, usually the second half of your sleep. This means that depending on your goals you will either want to leave this alone or blunt this effect.
If you want to lose fat and do your fasted cardio in the morning, then certainly don't reduce cortisol at night. If you are looking to put on muscle mass, then we will want to lower cortisol right before bed. The best cortisol lowering supplement is Phosphytidal Serine or "PS".
PS is a natural plant fatty acid that has been shown to lower cortisol and is great for those who wish to gain muscle mass. Cortisol has been shown to tear down muscle, which is not a good thing for those who are wishing to gain mass.
Growth Hormone And IGF-1
During sleep you release a cascade of hormones that repair and help with recovery and growth. The most important one is growth hormone which then leads to higher IGF-1 levels. IGF-1 has taken center stage as one of the most anabolic hormones in the body, so boosting it at this critical time is key to muscle growth!
You want high circulating levels of IGF-1 all day and all night and taking products that boost IGF-1 will certainly help in your recovery.
IGF-1 can be increased by supplementing with it and by inducing growth hormone and by taking betaine anhydrous.
Glycine is an amino acid that is also a signaling molecule which has been shown in animal studies to reduce muscle tear down and wasting. According to a 2014 study from the Journal of Clinical Nutrition, June 2014, " Glycine protects skeletal muscle from cancer-induced wasting and loss of function, reduces the oxidative and inflammatory burden, and reduces the expression of genes associated with muscle protein breakdown in cancer cachexia. Importantly, these effects were glycine specific."
We learn a lot about muscle wasting from cancer patients, that's where steroid research comes from in many cases. Cachexia is the extreme muscle wasting that is caused by cancer, and as bodybuilders we can learn from this research.
As you see in the chart below, many anabolic processes rely on glycine, which means that it makes sense to supplement with this powerful amino acid.
Fat Mobilizers & Amino Acids
At night we go into a "fast" which means you will want to have ingredients that help to mobilize fat. Using fat as energy means that your body will not look to muscle protein as fuel. This will help you to maintain muscle mass during sleep where it can be broken down for fuel.
L-Carnitine is a potent fat mobilizer and can help the release of fatty acids from fat cells to be used as fuel. This will give you more fuel to use at night which means we are sparing protein. You should take L-Carnitine at night for fat mobilization.
I don't suggest you take amino acids at night in the form of protein. Protein can be easily converted to SUGAR (glucose) and this is counter to growth hormone release and also fat mobilization. The fasted state is a good thing for sleep but we may want to increase our amino acid pool while sleeping.
I believe taking singular amino acids before bed will reduce the chance of conversion to sugar because I theorize that singular amino acids are treated differently in the body than peptides and proteins.
I don't want to mention products in the article, but for this purpose there is only one choice. HumaPro from ALRI. This contains singular amino acids that are free form, which means they won't be readily available as glucose (sugar).
If you take the right combination of supplements can release anabolic hormones, mobilize fat and spare muscle loss.
Of course as you know we sell products here on mind and muscle but we also do give the same advice to you that we use ourselves. We make products that we want to use and will benefit you!
Hi-Tech makes an excellent PS product. Nocturnus from Liquid Labs has Glycine and Carnitine along with GH boosters. HumaPro from ALR contains free form essential amino acids!
Combine them all before bed!

Of lonely men in shirt-sleeves, leaning out of windows? . . .
Prufrock does not know how to introduce himself as a topic of discussion. He doesn't know how to address himself in the right manner. It's as if he intends to use his visualization of lonely men as motivation. Due to the fact that he doesn't want to share the same fate as those men.

Deteriorating performance makes firing inevitable; now what?
Firing someone from their job is unpleasant. Managers hate doing it and employees hate losing their job. But it happens, and our faith can be a guide for both manager and employee.
First, consider the manager's perspective.
If employee performance devolves to the point were termination is inevitable, the employer has to work hard to balance two principles: justice and mercy.
Justice to the other people who depend on the company — employees, customers, shareholders and benefactors — requires that a non-performing employee improve performance, move someplace where the requirements of the work match their performance or — barring success on those two fronts — leave the company. A manager has to be the one moving this process forward.
Mercy, however, requires that an employer manage an underperforming employee with dignity. The employer might ask himself, "If I were having trouble, what would I want?"
Managers can use the answer to that question as a guide. This typically means helping the employee to succeed at the first sign of a performance issue, communicating clearly about consequences if performance fails to improve, privacy and discretion if termination is actually executed, and some level of follow up to help the employee find work elsewhere.
Always painful
From the employee's perspective, job loss almost always hurts, and firings typically hurt more than layoffs.
A fired employee is likely to experience a series of emotions, starting possibly with disbelief and moving to anger, sadness and finally acceptance. But it could take weeks or months to work through all this.
The duration of the process will be proportional to the extent the employer successfully balanced the principles of justice and mercy. It is much easier to accept a firing that is just and merciful than it is to accept one that seems random and harsh.
Since the beginning of time, people have wondered why bad things happen to good people; if you are fired, don't let this question be an impediment to your faith. Any forcible and unpleasant change is an opportunity for a person to reflect on the past, consider the factors that led to the change and make plans for a new path in the future.
As you ponder your situation, remember that putting the fire out and rebuilding the home are two separate projects. In other words, initially you might have to take any job you can get to pay the bills, but longer term you want to find a work situation that best matches your interests and gifts.
God first
Whether you are a rank-and-file employee or a manager, work is ultimately a gift that gives those of us in the labor pool the opportunity to co-provide with God for family and self.
God invites us into this work to help us develop a relationship with him. In our careers, it is easy to focus on job descriptions, promotion tracks, compensation and profits. But, if we focus first on our relationship with God, the rest usually falls into place.

Every publishing house is focused on creepy books for Halloween. I'm less interested in them, though I've had my favorites over the years — Thomas Tryon's "Harvest Home," Anne Rice's vampire novels, short stories by Guy de Maupassant. I enjoy Gothic stories, which combine a bit of romantic flourish with a little scariness, e.g., the old mysteries of Mary Stewart and Victoria Holt, "The Thirteenth Tale" by Diane Setter, "The Lace Reader" by Brunonia Barry and classics like "Wuthering Heights" and "Rebecca."
I looked around at the options being brought forth. There are many new books, and I haven't read most of them. Check the book display aisles in your favorite bookstore.
Here's a list, though, of other temptations, some classic, some contemporary:
"The Distant Hours" and "The Lake House," Kate Morton
"The Woman in Black," Susan Hill
"The Tenant of Wildfell Hall," a lesser-known Anne Brontë
"Fingersmith," Sarah Waters
"This House Is Haunted," John Boyne
"The Other," Thomas Tryon
"Frankenstein," Mary Shelley
Edgar Allan Poe's short stories "Danse Macabre" and "The Tell-Tale Heart"
"See What I Have Done," Sarah Schmidt (a retelling of the Lizzie Borden story)
"The Shining," Stephen King, and "Heart-Shaped Box" by his son, Joe Hill
"The Haunting of Hill House," Shirley Jackson (you can find it on Netflix)
"The House Next Door," Anne Rivers Siddons
"The Witching Hour" and "Lasher," among others by Anne Rice
Field trip?
Janet Evanovich, author of the Stephanie Plum mysteries, is not touring much at 75, so this is an opportunity to catch her. On Nov. 14, Evanovich will be in Hartford, Connecticut, talking about her newest, "Look Alive, Twenty-Five." Sponsored by the Mark Twain House, the event is at 7 p.m. in Immanuel Congregational Church, 10 Woodland St., right across the street from the Mark Twain House and Museum. Cost is $10; check the Twain House website for more info.
'Hogan's Hope' and a paw
Connie Bombaci will sign her book "Hogan's Hope" at Booklovers' Gourmet, 55 East Main St., Webster, from 2 to 4 p.m. Nov. 3. Judea, Connie's deaf pup and licensed service dog, will be on site. Profits from the sales of the book will help support nonprofit animal organizations and deployed service personnel.
"Hogan's Hope" is the inspirational story of a deaf dog, spared at a time when the prevalent belief was that deaf dogs should be destroyed. Hogan endured severe abuse and prevailed as he turned upside-down the myths of deaf dogs being dumb, difficult to train and harmful. Hogan learned more than 70 words in American Sign Language, engaged in normal puppy activities and provided the hope of life, not death, for deaf dogs worldwide.

Hole in One Guide to Golfing Auburn-Opelika
By Brian Weis
East of Montgomery and hugging the Georgia border, Auburn-Opelika offers a variety of scenic golf courses for all levels of golfer. Named one of the best places to live by U.S. News, Auburn-Opelika was also ranked the #1 golf city in America by Golf Digest.
Courses in Auburn-Opelika include the Robert Trent Jones Trail at Grand National, the Auburn University Club, Moore's Mill Golf Course and more.
Robert Trent Jones at Grand National
When Robert Trent Jones gazed upon what would become Grand National, he said that it was the single greatest site for a golf complex he had ever seen. Grand National boasts two 18-hole championship courses and one short course, set on a picturesque 600 acres.
When the first championship course, Links, opened in 1993, Golf Digest named it the 2nd best new public course in America. Links, along with Lake, the second championship course at Grand National, were both listed in Golf Digest's 40 Super Value courses.
The Links course has a robust layout, with a strong finishing hole.
The Lake course is just as scenic, with its green island 15th hole widely considered to be one of the prettiest holes on the whole trail.
Finally, the short course at Grand National is gorgeous and more than half of the holes flirt with the lakeside.
The Grand National is also neighbor to The Auburn Marriott Opelika Hotel & Conference Center, a RTJ Trail's Resort Collection hotel, an excellent lodging choice for those golfers looking for a full service hotel. Grand National also recently opened its National Village, a beautiful neighborhood on the grounds of Grand National that offers quick access to the resort and the links.
The Auburn University Club
Home to the Auburn Tigers golf team, the Auburn University Club facility is 7,326 yards from the tips. Its well-maintained layout with fast-running greens and narrow fairways make it quite challenging, but rewarding for the experienced golfer.
Moore's Mill Golf Course
The Moore's Mill Club Golf Course features an 18-hole, championship course stretching almost 7,000 yards throughout the rolling terrain and dense hardwoods native to Eastern Alabama. Designed by the Day-Blalock Design team, Moore's Mill offers just enough challenge for advanced golfers, while remaining player friendly for novice golfers.
Auburn-Opelika is centrally located between Atlanta, Birmingham and Montgomery, with golf packages available to suit every taste and budget. Visit the Auburn-Opelika Tourism Bureau website to plan your trip today.

It takes more than 380,000 highly skilled water and wastewater personnel to ensure the public supply of safe drinking water and to protect our lakes, streams and groundwater. Advancements in water treatment and supply technology have increased the skills and training required of this workforce. Water professionals are ultimately responsible for meeting stringent regulatory standards, replacing aging infrastructure, recruiting and training new operations specialists, and responding to and recovering from disasters.
In addition to increasing professional demands, utilities will soon be forced to replace many of their most experienced employees. Over the next decade, the water sector is expected to lose between 30 and 50 percent of the workforce to retirement. Many of these employees have worked at the same utility for the majority of their careers, and they will depart with decades of valuable institutional knowledge.
NRWA and State Affiliates currently provide training on operator certification, financial sustainability, environmental compliance, utility management and governance to 80,000 water professionals annually in all 50 states. Last year, over 55,000 on-site consultations were delivered by NRWA's technical experts for water quality, energy efficiency, source water protection, technical assistance and emergency response.
The NRWA Apprenticeship Program will initially be tailored to water system operations specialists and wastewater system operations specialists. Additional apprenticeships programs are in the works for water utility system customer service personnel and technical assistance specialists.

THINKING….Because thought is spiritual and therefore creative. To consciously control thought is therefore to control circumstances, conditions, environment and destiny.
This week in the Master Key we are logging KINDNESSES in our Master Mind Group. Kindnesses others do for me and kindnesses I do for others, seen or unseen.
The "aah ha" moment was when I realized I needed to be kind to myself. Until today (we started Monday) I had not looked at the kindnesses I have been doing for myself. How I treat myself. Here is where my thoughts control so much more than I could ever have come to understand in the past. Those words that we speak to ourselves. The good ones and the not so good ones. Yes, that annoying self talk.
One of the seven laws of the mind is the law of substitution. As I substitute negative thought for a fond memory or another pleasant thought, the negative is blotted out. It takes hard work to get that self talk into submission, but I am making improvements each day.
I have created a stack of index cards that remind me of all the good things I have accomplished in my life. (one good thing for each card) Each day I add 3 new grateful statements to that stack of cards. I want to be kind to myself and to others each day. As Haanel, tells us "as we control our thoughts we can control our circumstances and conditions". I use my cards as "flash cards" each day to plant positive thoughts.
In the news the whole month of January is getting back in shape by losing weight…new resolution for the new year. I don't know about you but I really do not like to lose anything, my keys, my car in the huge parking lot or my belongings. So why would I want to lose weight? Good question. Perhaps the words need to be different to cause the real effect I expect to achieve. Maybe think this over a little bit before I launch the objective. What is the source of all evil? Destructive thinking.
The business of life is to control thought and that brings about good circumstances and conditions.
I can be what I will to be

Flat Iron Square
Phase one of the improvements to Flat Iron Square was completed in mid-2011, in which part of the square was pedestrianised. This created a much needed and larger public space within Bankside, with more room for pedestrians, cyclists and visitors to the square. The new space has since been able to host a range of events and activities, from temporary art projects, poetry readings and most recently a product launch event for a certain mobile phone company.
In 2012 phase 2 of the project was delivered when a timber new canopy structure was built around the Island Cafe, housing a demonstration green roof. The roof provides a highly visible example of an urban green roof within Bankside - an area that needs to increase the amount of green cover in the neighbourhood, to adapt to a changing climate.
The implementation of the project was managed by Southwark Council in partnership with a number of local agencies including local businesses, Better Bankside and Design for London. Funding for the project is coming from a variety of sources, including the Mayor of London, Better Bankside, Southwark Council and local businesses.

The trailer for Dredd, the second stab at a movie based on the British comic book character Judge Dredd, has arrived, and it appears to be aiming squarely at the crossover point between Blade Runner and Die Hard. The film stars Karl Urban as the cold, law-obsessed futurecop, fighting a drug cartel based in a tower block.
The script comes from Alex Garland, who wrote 28 Days Later and The Beach, and appears to be a more faithful approximation of the distopic Mega City Four than had appeared in the frankly silly Sly Stallone version from the '90s.
One point though, the drug Slow-Mo that they're attempting to eradicate, that's eerily similar to the drug cake, as it appears in the spoof news show (pre-dating the Onion by several years) Brass Eye. Chris Morris, the prankster genius behind the show, convinced a bunch of British celebs to get behind a campaign to stamp out the evil (and very fake) drug, which, as you'll see, stimulates the part of the brain called Shatner's Bassoon…
(NSFW, but worth it)
Take care, and I really do mean take care.Read More

DES MOINES, Iowa (WJZ) — Two winning ticket holders on opposite sides of the country will split a whopping $648 million jackpot, the second largest in lottery history.
But, as Monique Griego explains, they aren't the only people cashing in on the jackpot.
In addition to the main prize, there are also 20 people who won a million dollars. One of those tickets was sold at a gas station in Annapolis.
After more than two months of rolling jackpots, two lucky Mega Million tickets finally matched all six numbers for a prize. Last-minute ticket sales swelled to a whopping $648 million.
One ticket was sold at a small gift shop in San Jose, Calif. The owner gets a million dollar commission.
"Today is a good day. I'm so excited. I win a million dollars, too," said Thuy Nguyen.
The other ticket came from a newsstand in Atlanta.
The lucky winners will split the second largest prize in U.S. lottery history–but they aren't the only ones cashing in.
Nationwide, 20 tickets worth a million dollars each matched all five numbers except the Mega Ball. One of those tickets was sold at the High's on Old Bottom Road in Annapolis.
"Some nice person down here has won some money," said Marvin Redding.
"Heartbroken. I am so heartbroken because I come here all the time," said Richard Stokes.
Even if there's no chance you are that winner, you should still check your tickets. There are more than 685 winning tickets for smaller amounts.
"Even if you didn't win the jackpot, you could walk away with $5,000 to $500, all the way down to that one dollar," said Carole Everett, Maryland Lottery.
Mega Millions prize totals are soaring, thanks to new rules in October that made it harder to win.
While the big jackpots are enticing, most players say it's nice to win anything.
"The tough times we've been going through, anything would have been great," said Sean Engelhard.
The winner in Georgia has already come forward.
As for the local million dollar winner, they have 182 days to claim their prize.
The store in Annapolis will receive $1,000 for selling the winning ticket.

If you didn't know it by now I'm a big fan of WordPress. Its got to the point where I can set up a full optimized wordpress site for any niche in minutes.
Not trying to brag because all the work is done by wordpress when you know how…and as what is probably the world's most popular website and blogging platform, once its set up you know its the darling of Search engines and will suck in lots of free traffic. And we all know traffic together with a good offer equals $$$$
At this point I have too many sites to count and each of them work for me while I go about my ramblings during each day.
If you want to do the same, worth taking a look at this resource.

Horrifying moment a young woman is dragged into the sea by a massive wave before hero bystanders save her life
The woman was walking along a slipway at a harbour in Yorkshire before she was unceremoniously struck
THIS IS the shocking moment a young woman was caught off guard and swept into the sea by a massive wave at Bridlington Harbour, East Yorkshire.
The unnamed woman was dragged into the ocean while walking along the slipway, and had to be rescued by hero bystanders who managed to pull her to safety.
Pictures of the incident show water crashing onto the walkway as the young woman walks along the slipway with a male companion.
Before long, she is unceremoniously struck by a huge wave and swept to the floor as her partner looks on in shock.
The Humber Coastguard arrived quickly after responding to a number of emergency calls reporting the incident.
A helicopter and inshore lifeboat soon appeared on the scene, but the woman had already been pulled from the sea by brave bystanders.
A photographer who wished to remain anonymous managed to capture the scenes by chance as she went for a walk along the harbour.
Speaking on the close call, she said: "I go for a walk on the harbour in East Yorkshire most Sundays and take photos of the lovely view.
"I got a takeout coffee and noticed the waves coming over the wall.
"I wanted to capture some nice photos but then a family came and they were watching the waves and they began encouraging each other to go that little bit further.
'It was a very close call'Strictly's Darcey Bussell opens up about near death experience during childbirth
'LOVELY, HAPPY GIRL'Tributes to mum-of-two, 26, found stabbed to death in her home as cops quiz man found on nearby cliffs
'anorexia nearly killed me'Girl, 22, days away from death at just 5 stone now has 120K Instagram followers
'THANK GOD IT CAME OUT'Tot, 3, nearly chokes to death on a McDonald's chicken nugget but has life saved by security officer
"I couldn't believe it when the girl kept walking further and further.
"I opened my mouth to shout to them but a wave took her from under her feet.
"She tried to stand up but then I watched another wave grab her and sweep her off the slipway."
The photographer was one of many passers-by to leap to action to save the young woman.
She continued: "I got the life ring and someone up the steps shouted, 'Give it to us we'll throw it to her'.
"I ran up the steps and gave it to someone then ran back down to the slipway and saw the girl out in the sea being taken under and resurfacing.
"I couldn't watch any more. I honestly thought she wouldn't survive.
"It seemed like a long time but it probably wasn't when some young men came down the steps wet through and said they had got her out.
"I couldn't believe it.
"I wanted to cry.
"Whoever those young men were they deserve medals as they saved the girl's life."
A spokesman for Bridlington Coastguard confirmed the incident and said: "We received a number of 999 calls from members of the public at 5.16pm on Sunday.
"The coastguard helicopter was training nearby and was quickly on the scene and we also deployed an inshore lifeboat.
"The victim managed to get herself back to shore by the time we got there and we treated her at the scene until the ambulance arrived.
"She was taken to Scarborough hospital to be checked over for hypothermia and secondary drowning when water can get into the lungs up to 48 hours afterwards.
"She had been in the water for about five or ten minutes."

This will be a mostly pictoral adventure.
Here's Suitcase at the train station, taking a little rest after trundling all the way from Tina's apartment.
Jo-Jo and Suitcase grab a quick nap on the train. It had been a tiring time for us all – exhaustingly fun, like being around me often is.
Samba-stepping Jo leads Suitcase to an empty grassy area for more dancing!
Finally both Jo-Jo and Suitcase collapse from shaking it.
Suitcase takes a rest and poses with the giant reflective bean.
Jo, Suitcase, and giant Chinese dinosaur. Big Red was part of a sculpture exhibit of modern Chinese works. I'll leave the naked people/pig/red wrecking crane sculpture to your imagination.
Suitcase makes a final stop at Cosi for lunch, and then he's off to the Plains states.

As I said goodbye to the old streets of Oxford last week, I dismayed that I had not had the opportunity to fully explore the lovely little university city. Indeed, I barely took any photographs at all—many potential shots seemed to have waves of tourists, trucks, garbage bags, traffic, pylons, construction, and other everyday objects that reduce the quality of a picturesque landscape photograph (though Oxford is quite lovely). Nevertheless, here are a few photographs I was fortunate to snap:

Hotels in Llandudno Surrounded by Nature
Llandudno is the place to be for nature lovers, especially in the summer and spring months. There are so many beautiful and natural local attractions. You may think of Llandudno as a lively town with many restaurants and activities to occupy tourists but it has so much natural beauty and wildlife to offer too.
Walkers, bird watchers and nature lovers will find Llandudno a place well worth visiting for a holiday. Being a seaside town it has a wealth of sea life such as starfish, jellyfish and even sightings of seals and dolphins out in the bay. It is also near bird reserves and home to sanctuaries for water birds. It is the location of the North Wales Bird Trust and has many mammals and insects thriving in its varied environment.
Hotels in Llandudno offer luxury, delicious food and comfy beds but in addition to this they are conveniently located near areas of outstanding beauty. There are several natural areas of Special Scientific Interest in and near Llandudno.
The best places to experience Llandudno's natural landscape are its wonderful parks. The Great Orme Country Park is famous for awe inspiring coastal views and its fascinating geological landscape. Geologists have long been captivated with the Orme. The earth's geology has sculpted this incredible habitat and left its mark upon the land in the rock shape and mineral makeup of the earth.
The Great Orme Country Park is filled with amazing native wildlife from birds, bats and goats to butterflies and rare water birds. To get the best out of the park head to the Great Orme Country Park visitor centre. Here visitors to our town will find an abundance of information about the native wildlife, plants and geology of the Orme. Llandudno hotels are only a stone's throw away since the town is right beneath the Orme, nestled up to the beautiful beach.
The Great Orme Country Park is also filled with human history as prehistoric people have been settling in the area for thousands of years.
The Great Orme Country Park may be the most famous natural landscape in Llandudno but it is not the only source of nature for you to enjoy.
Bryn Pydew North Wales wildlife reserve near Llandudno has several different habitats for a wide variety of plants and animals. It contains woodlands, grasslands, a limestone pavement, as it lies on carboniferous limestone, and quarries. It is situated between Llandudno and Colwyn Bay and is an ideal place for quiet walks and spotting wildlife.

During the Drema Fair (11 through 14 September) – the largest annual exhibition for the wood industry in Central and Eastern Europe, set in Poznàn, Poland – SCM will be meeting representatives of the furniture and door and window industries, as well as with a large crowd of craftsmen, students and industry operators, in a European country where woodworking is a sacred vocation.
Indeed, Poland is the second-ranking exporter of doors and windows in the world, and the first if considering only the latter. Also when it comes to furniture it is up there at the top (third-ranking exporter). In other words, it is a huge producer of wood products as well as a flourishing territory where all of SCM secondary woodworking machines have been selling well for decades. And it is also where SCM is one of the major promoters of new tools that allow companies to benefit from the ever more digital and automated production systems.
SCM introduces at the Drema Fair plenty of technological innovations, offered to the woodworking industry with the added benefit of using the Maestro Digital Systems platform of digital services, which makes every production phase faster and simpler for both small carpentry shops and multinational corporations. This approach is encapsulated in the slogan "Work Simple: Work Digital", our leitmotiv at the fair. All based on the use of such tools as Maestro Connect, the IoT platform which collects and analyses data fed by the SCM machines, Maestro Smartech, the innovative remote assistance and maintenance system with augmented reality glasses, and Eye-M, the multi-function and multi-touch state-of-the-arts operator panel.
Andrea Santi, general manager of the SCM Polska branch, summarises this way SCM's participation at this fair: "SCM is here at Drema under the banner of innovation, to be at the service of the best companies in the furniture industry as well as the woodworking industry in general, and to promote technological change in an area where the culture of woodworking is strong and deeply rooted." There is no shortage of awards and satisfaction, such as the award won by SCM for the communication impact and impressive arrangement of its stand: the Acanthus Aureus Award presented by MTP, the Poznàn Exhibition Association.

Subject: Writing
Create a well-formatted introductory paragraph.
An introductory paragraph for a paper about "The Dark Knight:" There have been many interpretations of the Joker within the Batman franchise, but perhaps the most compelling portrayal of the notorious villain can be found in The Dark Knight. The character of the Joker in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight, as played by the late Heath Ledger, is one shrouded in mystery, possibly more than the Batman himself, but with one obvious lesson to teach us: the nature of evil. Through out the film, the Joker exhibits his concept of evil through his actions and words. The Joker shows that the evil in the world is relative to the good, that an evil nature is preexistent in everyone at some level, and that evil itself is more of an attitude rather than an action.
Subject: Literature
Consider a theme within the novel "The Catcher in the Rye" by J.D. Salinger. Examine this theme with examples from the text.
The theme of "innocence" is prevalent in the novel Catcher in the Rye. When main character Holden Caulfield becomes fixated with his former neighbor Jane Gallagher after learning his roommate will be taking her out on a date, a glimpse of Holden's preoccupation with the idea of innocence is revealed. When talking about his previous relationship with Jane, Holden says, "I used to play checkers with her all the time…She wouldn't move any of her kings…She'd just leave it in the back row" (p. 41). The symbolism of the checker pieces represents Jane's innocence, and her tendency to keep all of her kings in the backrow is representative of the lack of corruption she has allowed herself to experience. Holden continues to show signs of concern for Jane's innocence, saying, "I kept thinking about Jane, and about Stradlater having a date with her and all. It made me so nervous I nearly went crazy. I already told you what a sexy bastard Stradlater was" (p. 44-45). Holden is aware of his roommate Stradlater's promiscuity and becomes very protective of Jane, not wishing for her to corrupted by Stradlater's character, which Holden describes in various ways like "a phony kind of friendly" (p. 34), "madly in love with himself" (p. 36), and "too conceited" (p. 44). References: Salinger, J.D., The Catcher in the Rye. New York, NY. Little Brown & Company. 1991.

A lot has happened since our last open letter to the EU LCS community. H2K has always sought to be transparent and we thought it was important to provide everyone with an update.
Today we are happy to announce that H2K has signed the RIOT Team Participation Agreement ("TPA") and will remain in the EU LCS for 2018. H2K remains committed and loyal to the EU region so long as we continue to compete in League of Legends.
We were pleased that the reported EU regionalization plan for 2018 was pulled back with RIOT then announcing a new plan including a franchised EU league in 2019. Had these changes not occurred, H2K would have sadly withdrawn from the EU LCS for the reasons we disclosed in our prior letters.
We are hopeful that RIOT will successfully launch the EU franchised league in 2019. We believe that H2K is well prepared and well suited for the franchised league given our (i) long history of competitive success, (ii) strong brand with video and social media content focused on H2K, the LCS and regional teams in EU, NA and Korea, (iii) a professional organization with a strong infrastructure, (iv) a stable financial plan identified by RIOT as critical for all applicants and (v)a team culture focused on the emotional growth and well being of its players which is respected both in the EU and elsewhere.
For 2018, taking into account the still inadequate although somewhat improved financial support provided by RIOT to the EU LCS teams, H2K has put together a young and talented team which we believe will emerge as the surprise success story in the EU LCS. We also have great confidence in our coach who has worked previously with H2K and with several of our players.
In an effort to bring financial stability in 2018, H2K has significantly reduced its operating budget to approximately €1 million by reducing player salaries and making other meaningful overhead reductions. With some luck, this should enable H2K to sustain a modest loss or perhaps even breakeven. In doing so, H2K will also satisfy RIOT's franchising criterion requiring teams to demonstrate financial discipline and stability. H2K has appropriately responded to RIOT's messaging that teams who incur significant year over year losses, even if those losses are willingly funded by VC's and other investor's, won't be considered financially stable.
To put 2018 into perspective, we knew going into free agency that our top EU players and coach were attracted to playing in NA as well as for other EU teams who were now competing with NA salaries. To retain our top EU players, H2K would have had to commit to additional player compensation of at least €1 million in excess of 2017 player compensation driving the operating expense budget up over €2.5 million. This would have generated another year of significant losses. This is not something we were prepared to do nor would it have been responsible to do so.
RIOT cannot be expected to provide full funding for unlimited player salaries either within the current EU LCS structure or within a franchised league. There must be a balance. As H2K has previously stated, however, the current financial structure of the EU LCS continues to be backward and upside down. The professional leagues and their players are the foundation of RIOT's success and the EU LCS teams, even before franchising, based on their significant investment to date, should not have to subsidize RIOT and should participate at some level in revenues from in-game sales, skins, broadcasting, advertising, and sponsorships. With Overwatch taking the lead by providing teams with participation in these revenue streams, we are hopeful that RIOT will now adopt this approach for the 2018 EU LCS and in its future plans for the franchised league.
We enthusiastically look forward to what's ahead and will continue to keep everyone posted on what's going on at H2K and the EU LCS.

The Commitments at Palace Theatre
Roddy Doyle's The Commitments has made it to screen with Alan Parker's brilliant film version, and now hits the stage, following a hugely successful West End run.Compared with many musicals that tour the bigger venues, this is a relatively small show. The cast multi-task, carrying items on and off stage and it feels similar in tone to another film to stage musical with an Irish flavour, Once.
With Mrs Brown's Boys wowing the over 40's, some of the less subtle humour plays well to a big crowd. But, during the musical sections, The Commitments is on fire, as each member of this talented cast is, pardon the pun – committed to the material and you believe that they are a hastily put-together band.
Brian Gilligan has soul to burn, as the arrogant but supremely talented Deco, lead singer of the band. He also has a great way with the audience, inviting them to move, clap and cheer, involving you at every turn. Andrew Linnie's Jimmy is front and centre as the brainchild behind the band, Jimmy Rabbit and Kevin Kennedy has fun as his da.
Amy Penston is in fine voice, complete with Deidre Barlow glasses, as Natalie and she is joined and backed by two equally superb singers, Leah Penston (Imelda) and Christine Tedders (Bernie) and this trio bring the likes of You Keep Me Hangin' On and Chain of Fools to the stalls and beyond.
If there is one flaw, it's that at times in the beginning of the show, the songs are too rushed. So much so, that if you are unfamiliar with the film, you may wonder what is happening within the narrative. If you know Alan Parker's much loved movie, then you will feel at home with the some of the classic songs, featuring back biting within the performances, and the idea that we can all dream big for a moment.
Jamie Lloyd's efficient direction means that the show can breathe in act two, so you do begin to connect with characters and feel their plight. And the big numbers saved for the encore do blow the roof off. And, yes – Try A Little Tenderness is a case of save the best till last, and it is bloody brilliant.
The book may be slim, but the meat is in these brilliant songs, and the tremendous cast, bring soul to Manchester and you'll end up feeling as Proud as Mary and on your feet, demanding more.
The Commitments is at the Palace Theatre until 8 April.
