15 Celebs We Didn’t Know Were Victims of Scams
Scam Victims. In some cases, the celebrities themselves were scammed; in others, their fans were targeted by unscrupulous individuals. But regardless of who was victimized, the result was the same: the celebrity's reputation was damaged, and their fans were left feeling betrayed. The most famous recent example of a celebrity Scam Victim is a pop star, Justin Bieber. Bieber was the target of an online death hoax in early 2013, and later that year, he fell victim to a phone-hacking scandal. But he's not the only one; other celebrities who have been Scam Victims include Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift, and even President Barack Obama. With fame comes scrutiny, and unfortunately for these celebrities, that also means that they are prime targets for scammers.
Moreover, turns out that J.K. Rowling was so trusting the wrong person she ended up getting fleeced for tens of thousands of dollars (which was spent, among other things, on cats). Here's the full story, plus 14 others:

Ei Emotional Intelligence Complexity Theory

"Ei Emotional Intelligence Complexity Theory"
The topic of Emotional Intelligence (EI) has never failed to attract attention, and this is based on the popular assumption that emotion is the antithesis of intelligence. In each one’s life, there has surely been at least one occasion where one has been told to ‘not be emotional’, and to ‘use your head instead of your heart’. Under this assumption, to use emotions means to be ‘soft’ and to be lacking in logic and reason, and that the term ‘intelligence’ is only applied to the cognitive process. Some definitions of intelligence may even include job skills and vocational skills (defined in the paragraphs below as ‘domains’), thereby adding further confusion.
As time goes by however, the rapid growth in the literature and research on EI by various writers and psychologists/scientists from the 1990s onwards have provided some compelling arguments to indicate that emotions and intelligence are not at opposite ends, but are complementary to each other. In terms of brain structure, the neo-cortex (responsible for the logical or cognitive process) sits on top of the limbic area. The proverbial ‘heart’ in romantic literature is not located in the physical/biological heart but rather, in the limbic area of the brain. Both parts of the brain work more closely together than one may assume, and if not for the inter-working between the neo-cortex and the limbic area of the brain that provides a nurturing response, mammals would also most likely devour their young instead of protecting them (Goleman, 1997).
Regarding a clear definition of the term ‘intelligence’, Gardner (2006) has provid terms ‘domain’ and ‘intelligence’. He stated that the confusion in defining intelligence was due to the fact that most people thought that ‘intelligence’ and ‘domain’ are inter-changeable (whereas they are not), and this causes an activity or area under a domain to be incorrectly categorized as an intelligence. Gardner (2006) explained that a domain is ‘any organized activi. Any occupation, art, craft, or sport is a domain’ (p. 65).
Therefore, the term ‘intelligence’ refers to the human computational capacity and the ability to utilize this facility to solve problems and apply them in the environment in which the individual is residing. However, computation doesn’t only apply to numbers but also to other types of information requiring selection and discrimination such as music, words, self-awareness, and social relations. Gardner (2006) further stated that intelligence is a bio-psychological construct, while a domain is sociological in nature.
As a whole, a good basic definition of EI is ‘the expansion of the conventional view of intelligence and IQ to include social and emotional aspects’ (Coleman, 2006). This means that the term ‘intelligence’ does not apply solely to the human cognitive process, but it also involves the emotional aspects of the mind that can be used to assist and clarify the thinking process. Emotions can be used to ‘facilitate cognitive activities pursuits’ (Grewal and Salovey, 2006, p. 107), and therefore can be used to enhance, rather than to disrupt one’s thinking process.
EI has also become a popular topic due to the attention and coverage given to this subject by various psychologists, writers, and institutions. However, EI is not a new area of study as it was researched back in the 1920s by E.L. Thorndike under the term ‘social intelligence’ (Goleman, 1997, p. 42) although at that time, social intelligence was thought to reside under the area of human communication and is not regarded as an intelligence in its own right.
Within the context of today’s organizations, EI is crucial as it needs to be taught, implemented and practiced by all the members of the organization. It all starts from the fundamentals, and since an institution is nothing without its people, this means that EI starts with the core of the organization; its staff and the administration/management team.
I believe that EI is a crucial component in leading people in organizations based on the increasingly complex and uncertain nature of life today. If there are too many external forces pulling at the fabric of the system itself and its boundaries, theoretically the system will have to be flexible enough to withstand the pressure from the changing demands, otherwise it will be torn apart into chaos. EI will be able to provide this resilience.
I am also fascinated by the fact that as the world advanchat we need to go back to the basics regarding human beings and their interactions. These interactions create relationships that form dynamic human networks and interconnections, and these networks hold the real competitive advantage to a better future. It is not to say that other factors such as material wealth and technology are not important, but the cultural network and interconnections that use the technology and wealth as the ways and means to achieve certain goals are the ones that are holding the real value for the future.

Step 3: Identify target Restaurants
Does an asset sale mean the business is failing? In many cases, yes -- today. If you’re going to buy a restaurant with no money down, you need to be ready to take on the risk to “flip the restaurant” and take it to the next level. How do you decide if it’s the right one? Investigate the business. Visit as a customer. Check out the surrounding area. Pull the demographics on the trade area and figure out if the market is good and the concept is bad. You can change the concept. You can’t change the location.
Identify where the seller has missed the mark by reviewing his financial picture, checking out his marketing (or lack thereof) or understanding the quality of the assets. Fit your business plan to this situation and see if your ideas have traction in this location.
Final Step: Negotiate a deal with no money down.
Once you have identified your target, approach the seller or the broker with a proposal for acquiring the business with no money down. Demonstrate that by taking over today, you will remove the current seller’s liability for the lease or franchise. – A seller who is currently not making money is often willing to walk away provided you address his obligations. That includes the personal guarantee on the lease or the franchise agreement. Sometimes he has equipment that has a remaining note. See if you can take over his payments. The point of the negotiation is to remove the pressure of staffing and running the business today. He needs to see you as his solution in order to sell you the restaurant with no money down.

; crime, health-related consequences, traffic accidents, air pollution and terror), different sciences (including insurance and economics, psychology and statistics) [5-10]. The risk in any field has a different meaning, for example, “risk” in economic fields refers to both benefit and loss [6, 8]. The term “risk” in technological fields is defined as a deadly threat , so that in the industrial countries if the risks of various chemical plants left unmanaged, besides deadly pollutions to the water resources and the environment, the economic losses will be enormous . This issue has made risk assessment and appraisal one of the important aspects of the industrial management, because incidents due to safety breaches, especially in Industrial technologies (for example, in the oil and gas industries) left catastrophic effects on human and environment [5, 12].
This term in some areas, such as traffic accidents is used as a risk factor (risk factors such as age and gender) affecting the occurrence of adverse event (the crash)  that usually has drawn little attention . McNeil believes that the word “risk” means uncertainty, because the occurrence of major crises such as hurricanes, global economic crisis, earthquakes, floods and multiple fires, are partly associated with conditions of uncertainty, in a way that humans cannot fully predict the time of their occurrences . The important challenge in the field of health is the different perception of this term in the industrial sciences and health fields in the events and disasters. Sometimes words like danger and hazards are used differently [6, 7]. Therefore, risk definition seems simple and understandable, but in reality it has its own complexity. Although accepting danger is due to the nature of the job and social responsibilities, such as fire extinguisher, police, rescue teams; outweighing benefits over losses, or seemingly slight danger, but one of the most important reasons of accepting danger and risk is the lack of sufficient awareness [8, 9].
Hyogo framework for action (2005) has introduced knowledge and education one of the five components needed to reduce the dangers of disasters and consolidate the resilience of societies . Education andcommunities is so important that it has been considered one of the domains of Sendai framework . However, the level of danger knowledge (level of awareness) depends to a large extent toas well as people’s different perceptions of the danger. Danger perception is the important and decisive component of people’s behaviors in time of dangers. Public awareness of disasters and disasters knowledge has direct influence on people’s attitudes and behaviors Russian vodka producers distilled 9.61 million decaliters in June.
Brandy production soared 80 percent over the same period, the RBC report said, while Russian winemakers also corked more bottles, producing 6.83 million decaliters of wine, doubling the output figure of June 2011.
June usually sees low output for Russian liquor producers, while November and December are the peak months, according to RBC Daily.

A Swedish company by the name of Soundracer has developed an innovative new engine sound simulator that is more than capable of making your second-hand sedan sound like a veritable automotive monster fitted with an aggressive V10 engine.
While Soundracer has developed engine sound simulator products before, what makes the new Electric Vehicle Electronic Engine Sound System (EVEESS) unique is the fact that it has the ability to be mated to your electric vehicle, as its name suggests. Oney're often so silent that they can catch pedestrians of guard. The EVEESS engine sound simulator therefore solves two problems, as it doesn't just ealso gives motorists the thrill of producing an engine snarl that will capture pedestrians' attentions for all the right reasons.

Welp.....we all know how hard prom is.......
At a fund raiser we do for home games, we run a stand (my class) and we use this money to pay for the decorations and everything. So we were having a down time and we were sitting in a little group talking about who we were taking to prom, so it slowly works around to me (only without a date) and turns out I don't have a date. So first thing said, "Oh dude I know this girl from Tarkio (Different town) and she's really nice...." All I could say was...."No!
About that time this girl walks in the stand and says "Wait, who's going with who to where?", I simply responded, "I need someone to go to prom with me, and it's making me nervous......" First thing this girl says, "Oh hey I've been having the same problem, wanna go with me?" and Ray responds with "I guess so, but I don't even know you....

If you like the idea of flying above and across Mindo’s cloud forest, like a modern-day Tarzan, a canopy tour is definitely for you. Canopy Adventures, a company with over 10 years’ experience in Costa Rica, has installed a circuit of 11 different zip lines spanning the valleys and hills above Mindo. Securely harnessed to the cable, you literally zip along, at a height varying from three to 120 meters (9.8-394 ft), just above the treetops, from one platform to the next. For an extra rush, try doing the headfirst “Superman” or the upside-down “mariposa" while harnessed to a guide. The total length of the circuit is 3,500 meters (11,483 ft) and takes between 1.5 and 2 hours, depending on the crowds. The ride is open to kids from age 5 and up.
Follow the road to the cascadas for 2.5km, entry is indicated by a large yellow sign.
Here are other activities in and around Mindo that may be of interest: Cable Car, Mariposario and Tubing.

Mazel dog!
Biggs and wife Jenny Mollen celebrated a "barkmitzvah" for their poodle, Teets, who turned 13 on Thursday.
"Guess who is 13 today!!!!??? #teets #mazeltov #Barkmitzvah," wrote Mollen to caption an Instagram shot of her and her pooch wearing matching blue outfits, the pup's decorated with the Star of David.
Teets does perk up in a snapshot in front of the temple (perhaps since he's outside?) and appears active at the after-party, which was complete with challah for the dogs.
Mollen concluded her Instagram party with a bang: Teets photoshopped into a few tourist destinations around the U.S., with the caption, "Theme: 'Around the World with Teets.' "
That prompted a hilarious repartee of what to name their son. Biggs suggested Cy or Sebastian, both of which Mollen shot down. Then she mused, "What's he gonna look like? Me?"
"Or me?" Biggs answered, to which she responded, "But we're hoping me, right?"


If you want to understand American foreign policy in the Biden era, a good place to start is with Samuel Pisar. By the time Pisar was 13 years old, he was totally alone. His father had been caught by the Nazis while trying to smuggle children to safety from the Bialystok ghetto in Poland. He had been tortured and executed. His mother and younger sister had been sent to the gas chambers while Pisar himself had been forced into slavery.
Having survived the war thanks to extraordinary luck and resourcefulness, Pisar rose to become a distinguished lawyer, Holocaust educator and even an intermediary between presidents (among other things, sent by François Mitterrand to assure Ronald Reagan that the Frenchman was not a communist).

Weeks after the midterm elections delivered a putative referendum on the former president and his future, barely anything has changed.
Soul-searching, backbiting, recriminations, denunciations: This is the usual stuff of postelection seasons, though few would have predicted a month ago that all of it would be happening on the right. The “red wave” many expected never materialized; Republicans might have won the House, but they utterly failed to win it “bigly,” to borrow a term of art from the man being widely blamed for their underperformance. And there are signs that Trump himself may be looking to switch gears. In his speech announcing a 2024 campaign last week, there were, to be sure, a few references to the cultural wedge issues that shaped—and tanked—MAGA-approved campaigns this cycle, including swings against critical race theory and trans athletes. He spoke about putting drug dealers to death (a provocation in keeping with the tone of his 2016 campaign) and Hillary Clinton. He whined about voting methods and the Steele dossier.
While Trump’s speech was widely framed as an underwhelming salvo in the fight for the soul of the Republican Party, the familiarity of much of the platform he laid out suggests the substantive gap between him and the Republican elites loudly denouncing him again—never very large to begin with—is shrinking further still. At least one of the elite’s preferred standard-bearers, for his part, has spent the last few years moving in Trump’s direction. In all probability, we’ll find the future of the Republican Party in the places where the two meet. And we have every reason to believe the party’s future bodes poorly for our politics, whether or not Trump wins out.
Over the course of his first campaign and presidency, Trump’s vision for bringing “glory to America” shifted from an erratic and occasionally heterodox pseudo-populism toward the familiar platitudes of conservative orthodoxy. Every indication is that the transformation has held—the next campaign, as Trump renders it in his remarks, will be a fight between “freedom, values, individual responsibility, and just plain common sense” on the right and “an extreme ideology of government domination and control” on the left.
What does “better than Trump” really mean? The candidate who fits the bill for most of the GOP’s anxious donors and bigwigs at the moment is Ron DeSantis, a man who spent the campaign season stumping for candidates who backed Trump’s election claims and who vowed to take on nonexistent voter fraud within Florida. The GOP partially owes its House majority to DeSantis’s insistence on pushing through a more aggressively gerrymandered congressional map for the state than Republican lawmakers had intended. He inveighed against critical race theory and transgender people as or more aggressively than the party’s Trumpiest candidates in the rest of the country; sending migrants off to Martha’s Vineyard was as wicked and depraved a stunt as anything Trump has ever pulled.
There’ll probably have to be more where all that came from if DeSantis hopes to win over enough Trump loyalists and party activists to make the 2024 primary a real race. Trump, after all, is less an independent font of right-wing extremism than a particular, replaceable conduit for energies that have been shaping Republican politics for decades now. And the establishment’s bet that DeSantis might present a less threatening face to voters troubled by Trump will be undermined if the primary is particularly hard fought—returning Trump to his not-so-old self—or if Republicans in the House capture a large share of the public’s attention. Right now, the new majority, as narrow and fragile as it is, seems poised to antagonize the Biden administration and the Democrats in much the same way Republicans did when a much larger majority swept into the chamber under Obama: a flurry of investigations, a looming fight over the national debt, and sociocultural dog whistles aplenty about decadent cosmopolitans subverting American values.
Conservative media deserves most of the blame for emboldening the party’s fringe, but the right’s hacks have had a hand from some of the right’s putative critics. In the weeks and months before the election, predictions that Republicans would sweep into Congress on the basis of progressive cultural overreach were issued not only by the likes of Fox News but by The New York Times. For three straight elections now, Republicans have staked their campaigns on the exaggerated, imagined, or invented excesses of the left.
For three straight elections, the institutions of the mainstream press have covered Democratic campaigns and policymaking with the expectation and implication that the right’s messaging on cultural issues would largely succeed. And for three straight elections, the anticipated general backlash against cultural progressivism has utterly failed to materialize. Standing against all available evidence—the proof, in surveys and election results, that the electorate had moved measurably left on issues like racial justice, LGBT rights, and immigration over the last decade, the clear tendency of Republican politicians, unlike their Democratic counterparts, to embrace their party’s least popular ideas, like overturning Roe—the center and the right have been locked in a cycle of mutual delusion.
But measured by the onslaught of anti-trans measures Republicans have advanced across the country and the hatred conservative activists have stoked over the last few years, it’s hard to say that Republican messaging hasn’t worked, in the sense that the party has succeeded in making life more difficult and more dangerous for LGBT people. The motive of the recent mass shooting at a LGBT nightclub in Colorado Springs is still being investigated; it’s possible the attack might soon be appended to the list of massacres against Jews, Latinos, and African Americans that right-wing politics has inspired over the past few years.
The Republican Party understands the climate its rhetoric and strategies have created kills people and will continue to do so; it remains important to Republican politicians that the men being provoked to murder have the right tools at their disposal. It’s of some comfort that many Americans have come to see the right’s degeneracy for what it is and that Republicans continue to pay an electoral penalty for it. But given the mounting structural advantages the GOP enjoys within the federal system, this election barely qualifies as a setback. The 2024 campaign will be hard fought no matter who winds up on top of the Republican ticket. And even if it loses at the polls, we can rest assured that the right will snatch whatever victories it can manage from the jaws of political defeat.

HIGHLAND — With the strike in its sixth day, many Highland parents are in need of a safe, productive and preferably educational place to take their children during the day.
The Latzer Memorial Public Library in Highland is providing a place for students to spend their days doing constructive activities and keeping their minds active while being safe and supervised.
“We had art sessions between 10 and two,” Kim said.
On Thursday, the library will again have art sessions with a professional art teacher. Those drop-in art classes will occur between 10 a.m. and noon.
A library card is not required for the children participating in any programs held at the library.
In a release sent to the Telegraph on behalf of Highland Superintendent Mike Sutton and Board Negotiator Stephanie Jones, it was noted that the HEA made a multi-year offer for the first time since negotiations held on Sept. 8.
The cost of this offer to the board totalled $731,498. The board stated that it appreciated the willingness of the HEA to move from a one-year proposal. The board also believes, however, that they must hold firm on other financial commitments including whether teachers will make up days due to the strike or if they will be docked.

Healthy Results: 6 Ways Employee Wellness Improves Productivity
By loans-one	 Last updated Jan 13, 2021
There’s very little chance that you’ve missed the social media posts of employees sharing their fitness scores and ranks. Even before FitBit made it cool, employee wellness programs have become a regular part of any company’s employee engagement strategies, as well as a way to attract top new talent to the company’s rosters.
And, no wonder. With 80% of employees in companies with well-designed and managed health programs reporting that they feel engaged in their work, and feel valued by their employers.
But, what about productivity when it comes to the work output? Well, wsix ways employee wellness programs boosts your employees’ productivity and cranks up their engagement.
1.The Key Benefit of Employee Wellness Programs: Happier Employees
Alright, so we know that the definition of happiness can be a bit tricky to pin down. However, when we speak about happy employees, we mean they’re enjoying higher rates of endorphins, which is known as the ‘happy’ hormone.
In the simplest of terms, any through the body. Therefore, even a tiny bit of exercise, like a short walk during the day can truly boost your employees’ moods, which has a concrete effect on their productivity.
2.Healthier Employees
There’s no denying the direct relationship between our nutrition, exercise, and the effects they have on our health.
By integrating employee wellness programs into the company culture, you’re indirectly creating an atmosphere where healthier lifestyle choices are desirable. In addition to increasing your employees’ awareness of the importance of healthy eating, it also highlightsa run every morning.
A workforce, and a healthy workforce won’t cost you millions of dollars due to health care costs, as well as countering the epidemic of absenteeism.
Therefore, healthy employees are more productive than ones who aren’t.
3.Friendlier Employees Who Enjoy Teamwork
One of the greatest perks of wellness programs is creating this sense of community and friendship in the workplace. By working together, whether during workouts or group exercises, gives your employeesbe healthier.
This model will mimic the way these same employees will be working together on projects and other tasks that require a degree of teamwork. You can also have department-based events, or team events like athletic leagues, which will give them some safe space to let off some competitive steam, as well as spend more time together outside of their workday.
After any sort of wellness event, you’ll find that more and more staff members are forging friendships and bonding in an organic way, without any of the awkwardness that tends to cling to any company-operated ice-breaking events.
4.Employees Who Are More Confident
Take a quick look through any social media platform, and look through health or fitness-based posts. You’ll find that many of them revolve around being fit, losing excess weight, or being an athlete.
The common factor in all of those posts is the sheer confidence portrayed by the people in those pictures. The same idea applies to your employees. Once they work on becoming more fit and healthy, you’ll start seeing an obvious boost in their confidence levels.
Confident employees tend to go about their day with great enthusiasm, which directly affects their productivity. Also, they’re less likely to shy away from sharing new ideas and thoughts with their coworkers. All of those factors lead to the creation of better leaders, who aren’t afraid to think outside the box.
Furthermore, it isn’t only about confidence, but also raising morale. When you have more confident employees on hand, they’re more inclined to look at problems and other situations with positive attitudes. An increase in positive attitude in the work environment is the definition of high morale.
5.Employees Who Are Money-Savvy
We’ve covered a lot of benefits of the physical and fitness-based employee programs. However, wellness can include other types of programs that still affect the well-being of your employees.
For example, providing financial literacy courses and access to resources like the payactiv platformappy and healthy employees equal employees that are grateful to their company for those opportunities.
This means that these employees have a higher chance of sticking to your company for the long haul. After all, employee retainment is a critical factor to a company’s reputation, business growth, and even the employees’ productivity levels.
You won’t have to invest more in new employees at the drop of a hat, which is a great return-on-investment, considering that most employee wellness programs are rather small and low in costs.
6.New Employees of Talent
Once you showcase your solid wellness programs, you can use them to attract prospective employees. Most workers will say that they consider wellness programs to be huge perks, so they’ll go out of their way to try and join companies that offer them.
It might sound a bit shallow on the part of prospective employees. However, it’s not only about free exercises and healthy snacks for them. Wellness programs are a strong indicator of the health of a company’s culture, and the company’s willingness to support its employees.
Ready to Boost Your Business’ Productivity?
We know that employee wellness programs might seem a bit too complex and draining for small businesses to establish. h.
Hopefully, our little guide of the top six bterms of productivity rates was enough to change your mind.
But, for now, you’ll want to keep up-to-date with the latest business tips and strategies for business growth and financial wellbeing. So make sure to check out our ‘business startup’ and ‘loan tips’ secti to not only run your business but to also increase its growth by tenfold.

Roseman (photographed by Carl Socolow â€™77) 1 [ Dickinson matters ] Tools to engage the world Nancy A. Roseman, president T his June, I attended my first Dickinson Alumni Weekend. It was a wonderful opportunity to meet alumni from across the decades, all having experienced Dickinson at different points in its evolution. Among the many constants — from those celebrating their 50th reunion to those celebrating their fifth — was a deep affection for Dickinson, and for one another. The first Dickinsonian I met in a long receiving line on a stellar afternoon outside the Stern Center for Global Education clearly had thought carefully about what he would share with me in the few minutes we had together. He warmly welcomed me and quickly told me how Dickinson had shaped his life. The structure of this encounter was repeated as each person after him sought to give me a glimpse of why they loved Dickinson so much, how much it had affected their lives and created opportunities for them and why they were counting on me to be a good steward of their beloved college. That very first conversation among hundreds has stayed with me. It was an intensely related account of how the skills he had developed at Dickinson while studying foreign languages and cultures had opened a. He wanted me to fully appreciate how well Dickinson had prepared him for his future, personally and professionally. This theme, about the impact of language and d ic k in s on ma g a z i n e Fall 2013 2 cultural competency in our alumni’s lives, was repeated as the long line of well-wishers had their say. Dickinson provides a rigorous intellectual environment, with our language requirement being one of many impressive examples. The foreign-language program, combined with our global-studies initiatives and study-abroad programs, is a great strength of the college. Students in our foreign-language program, whether they are majors or simply fulfilling our language requirement — and by the way, over 60 percent of our students go beyond our requirement and take additional coursework — are developing not only language skills but also an appreciation and deep understanding of the associated culture. In fact, cultural competency, being able to navigate outside one’s comfort zone, Dickinsonians, particularly in a world increasingly without borders. A query to our language faculty on my behalf resulted in a chorus of faculty members proudly describing their curriculum and students’ accomplishments. Many pointed to theit the college. A deep culture of collaboration among our faculty is a constant source of new ideas and opportunities for our students. In fact, we pride ourselves on teaching in a way that connects the dots between seemingly disparate fields. This kind of synthetic thinking and doing is part of the power of a liberal-arts education, but ours is a distinctively Dickinsonian approach. Where else would a student majoring in Russian studies be able to assist our earth scientists in monitoring and studying a recent volcanic eruption in Russia? Our alumni constantly tell us of the remarkable career paths and life experiences that their study of foreign languages and cultures made possible. Our graduates’ language facility and their ability to navigate and thrive among cultural differences have opened doors to countless people and opportunities. Our language requirement, something that many liberal-arts colleges do not have, allows our graduates to live and work around the globe. Ultimately, they depart Carlisle fully equipped with the desire and the tools to engage the world. [ ask the archivist ] Instead of discussing just one item, I’m going to mention a whole category. For me, the most interesting items are among the rarest — those things that show u selves.

Recruited squash players in the class of 2017 will likely play on our new varsity men’s and women’s squash teams in 2014–15, which will bring our varsity sport count to 25. • Fifty-five percent of the first-year class has been awarded need-based financial aid, totaling more than $10 million dollars.

Moreover, the academic profile and diversity of this class are impressive: • For those submitting standardized test scores (approximately 69 percent of the class, as Dickinson has had a test-optional policy since 1996), the average SAT Critical Reading and Math score is 1288 (includes converted ACT scores).

Although other recent classes have used social media to research and select a college, the class of 2017 has used this platform — whether it was Facebook, Twitter or Instagram — with regularity and learned much more about the college (and one another) prior to their August arrival. I was pleased in reading the summer 2013 issue of Dickinson Magazine to see how similar thinking guided both President Nancy Roseman and parent Hugh Howard inin preparing liberalarts graduates to respond to the challenges of living intelligently and creatively in our increasingly complex, information-saturated world. President Roseman wisely notes the importance of “intellectual flexibility and breadth across disciplines” as an essential part of a liberal-arts education, and Mr. Howard celebrates his daughter’s and her peers’ collaborative experience in curating the senior art show at The Trout Gallery. Any education that ignores the lessons that students may learn from taking on meaningful tasks that are important to them, as well as to sample areas of knowledge that broaden one’s outlook and ultimately participate in a capstone project that provides solid evidence of lessons learned, is an incomplete education. I am pleased to see that both our new college president and a parent of a new graduate of Dickinson share this perspective.

Philpott v. Virginia DOT
No. 7:21-CV-00274, 2022 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 145338
Federal Court quashes subpoena for years of social media content.
Plaintiff, William S. Philpott, wasbefore he was terminated. Mr. Philpott alleged that he was terminated and  race. His theory of the case was that a group of VDOT employees did not want an African American supervisor and conspired to have him fired. Mr. Philpott issued subpoenas to three VDOT employees and one retired former employee, seeking social media content which dated back to January 1, 2014.
VDOT filed a Motion to quash. Judge Ballou construed the Motion to quash as a Motion for protective order and ordered that the non-parties to whom the subpoenas were addressed had to preserve their social media information through the rest of litigation. Judge Ballou also took the Motion under advisement to “permit Plaintiff to establish that the discovery sought . . . is relevant to Plaintiff’s con.” Ultimately, Judge Ballou found that the Plaintiff failed to establish a “sufficient connection” between the non-parties and the adverse employment actions at issue in the case so as to warrant production of years’ worth of social media activity, text messages, instant messages, letters and phone records. Judge Ballou then granted the Motion for protective order. Mr. Philpott objected to this decision.
In construing VDOT’s Motion to quash a protective order, Judge Ballou cited allows the Court, on its own Motion, to take a proactive role in the limitation of ongoing discovery. Mr. Philpott argued that the subpoenas were not overbroad and would certainly lead to the discovery of admissible evidence, citing as support for this contention his requests for social media posts made by the non-parties about each other and Mr. Philpott from January 1, 2014 to present, andracial hate groups made from January 1, 2014 to present. However, the Court ultimately found that Mr. Philpott failed to connect the large amount of information requested in the subpoenas to the claims in his case. Furthermore, even if the above-mentioned requests were not overbroad, Mr. Philpott had also asked for “all posts and other communications posted or otherwise made by you on anyaccount or page, or made by any other party on anyccount owned by you, for the period January 1, 2014 until the present.” His previously cited requests would be subsumed by that one.
Even if the Court were to strike that very broad request, Mr. Philpott requested large swaths of irrelevant information because his requests started on January 1, 2014, while the events at issue in the suit occurred in 2019. For these reasons, Judge Ballou’s refusal to allow such a wide-ranging productMr. Philpott’s objections were overruled.
AV Auto., LLC v. Gebreyessus
Attorney’s fees awarded as sanction must be limited to those fees incurred as a direct result of responding to the sanctionable pleading under Va. Code § 8.01-271.1.
AV Automotive, LLC, AV Imports, LLC, and Geneva Enterprises, Inc. entities who own and manage a group of car dealerships, discovered a fraudulent scheme by several employees to manipulate customer reviews to increase their bonuses under an incentive scheme with Audi of America, Inc. One such perpetrator of this scheme was Betelehem Gebreyessus, among others. Plaintiffs filed suit against the individuals who participated in the scheme, alleging business conspiracy. Each count alleged that Plaintiffs had been penalized by Audi of America, Inc. and that Plaintiffs would have to repay the $700,000 in bonuses they paid as a result of the scheme.
However, Audi of America stated that it had not penalized Plaintiffs and had no intention of penalizing Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs accordingly promised Defendant that they would withdraw their claims related to the penalty; they did so four months later. Defendant filed a Motion for sanctions against Plaintiffs pursuant to Virginia Code § 8.01-271.1 for the bad faith filing and prosecution of the lawsuit against her. She asserted that Plaintiffs did not have factual support for asserting the penalty claims against her, as they had never been penalized by Audi of America. The Fairfax County Circuit Court granted Defendant’s Motion for sanctions and awarded her $213,196.95, which were Defendant’s total attorney’s fees against Plaintiffs, but not against Plaintiffs’ counsel.
A court’s imposition of sanctions(1) its decision to award sanctions against a party, or (2) the particular sanction employed. While the Court upheld the award of sanctions against Plaintiffs’ overall, even though Defendant was not paying her own legal fees, the Supreme Court held that the total amount of the sanction was inappropriate. The language of Code § 8.01-271.1 requires that the attorney’s fees awarded as a sanction be sustained as a direct result of the sanctionable conduct. An appropriate sanction must be restricted to fees incurred acting in response to the sanctionable pleading. As the Trial Court failed to even attempt to segregate the fees incurred because of Plaintiffs’ sanctionable conduct, namely the cost of defending the penalty claim, the award was improper and an abuse of discretion.

A Foot Soldier For Patton
Patton’s army is best known for dashing armoured attacks, its commander combining the firepower of tanks with their historic lineage as cavalry. But when the Germans stood firm the greatest fighting was done by Patton’s long undersung infantry; the foot sloggers who were called upon to reduce enemy strongpoints, and who took the brunt of German counterattacks.
Michael Bilder, a member of the 5th Infantry, played a unique role in the Third Army’s onslaught. A rifleman foremost, he was also a German-speaker, called upon for interrogations and special duties. An astute observer, he relates dozens of fascinating insights into the campaign, from dealing with German snipers to intoxicated Frenchwomen, as well as relaying the often morbid humour of combat. Laughter, for example, erupts among Bilder’s unit when a hated Graves Registration officer, known for robbing the pockets of the dead, gets his hand blown off by a German booby trap.
When the 5th Infantry comes up against the fortress of Metz, the battle is detailed in all its horror, as is the sudden drive into the flank of the Bulge, where the Americans face their first winter battle against enemy veterans of Russia. Incidents common to the ordinary GI, but which seldom see the light of day in histories, are routinely related in this book, enriching the reader’s sense of the true reality of World War II combat.


This is what their Marketing VP Amy Carpenter says on the site -- "People often think the only option for hard-to-find tickets is to fend for themselves online. Our clients continue to tell us our service is what makes the difference. Our business started 20 years ago and obviously wasn't based on a website. Our focus then, and still today, is providing personal service to help clients have an unforgettable experience. Nowadays, we just happen to have a website as well."
So this fascinates me. The tone is obviously pure Geico and Capital One. But I don't know of a time when a company was introducing its brand to the masses and they used multiple tag lines. Make no mistake, these are not ad "headlines" or "slogans." They are positioning statements that speak to the core of their brand. In short, Ticket City wants us to know THEY CARE. Which actually rings true when what you do is known as "scalping."


I moved into my new home last April and have notice that the material called KLEER lumber used on the eve facia shrinks at cold temps – a lot. Factory rep inspected it at 33 degrees. I have photos at 15 degrees with joints open enough to see the framing material under the trim. Does it continue to shrink as temps go down? Is this a material that was not intended for exterior use?
What have you used for siding/trim/etc?
Recommendations for exterior trim in the Northeast?
Kleer is made of cellular PVC (vinyl), and cellular PVC has a high coefficient of thermal expansion. That means re are ways to disguise this expansion and contraction, and your builder should have been aware of this fact and should have employed the tricks that builders use to disguise these changes.
Many years ago of Light Construction. Here is a link: Engineered Exterior Trim.
In that article, I wrote, "Unlike engineered wood trims, which expand and contract with changes in humidity, plastic trimn the case of cellular PVC, for instance, a 55 deg.in length by about 3/8 inch. 'It is important to remember that this stuff shrinks in cold temperatures,' says Steve Roth, director of marketing at Style-Mark, a manufacturer of polyurethane trim. 'That's why you need to spring-fit the butt joints, and always use adhesive. Otherwise there will be a gap when it shrinks.' Thermal movement in fascias can be disguised somewhat by the use of scarf joints."
It's worth remembering that PVC doesn't so much shrink at low temperatures as expand or shrink depending on how warm it is. Unless installed at the hottest temperature it is likely to experience, it needs to be installed with a gap, or it is as likely to bulge or buckle when it heats up as it is to shrink in the cold. As Martin said, builders need to take this movement into account when installing PVC trim.


Speaking only for myself, I don’t think I’ve managed a decent opinion piece since this one on the EDL which is already long out of date with respect to its specific references. If I’ve not reneged on promises, I’ve certainly delayed fulfilling them. About a month ago, I began ‘an epistle to the Coffee’ in wake of their decision to allow women to become bishops. Around the same time, someone requested that I write a piece on why I refer to myself as non-denominational, though I have yet to begin that. I’ve barely managed to touch the ‘personal catechism’ series I began earlier this year. As for the ‘origins and nature of morality’, I keep looking at it and find myself unable to write a convincing sentence.
The trouble seems to be that the times at which I feel myself most able to write are those times when it is most inconvenient. I cannot write when I am work, yet if I am doing a more mundane task and my mind wanders, then all sorts of creative avenues appear before me. But when the time comes to sit at home and write, all those avenues are blocked off. It might be by a blank page in front of me. It might be by a reluctance to even turn the computer on. Yet when I am at home, the time at which thoughts flow most freely are late at night when I know I ought to be heading towards bed if I’m to function properly the next day. I write this at sentence at quarter to 11 in the evening.
blogging, Greenbelt. Bookmark the permalink.
I’ve stopped blogging so much mainly from personal circumstances.
My advice for Greenbelt is do not go with a plan! Decide what are must sees, but accept you may not even get to them. be prepared to go with the flow, the wonderful part of Greenbelt is meeting people on your way to somewhere and never getting there.
And yes – take a torch!
That sounds like I could struggle. Opiritual effect of living and working in London. I get drawn in to seeing other people as obstacles to be passed around. So the idea that I would let people get in my and stop me from getting where I want to go is an infuriating prospect.
I haven’t been bloggingn’t been feeling like I have thoughts that are important enough to post about. Not entirely sure where that comes from, but I imagine I’m not the only blogger who feels that way.
Certainly not. My reason for getting back into blogging 4 years ago was to express thoughts I already had. If I go looking for thoughts *to* express, then the raison d’etre has shifted and I get a bit lost.

Honda or Suzuki? Which is the best performance street bike?
When it comes to the urban grid, you want a slick and highly-flexible bike to tackle the streets. Something with a little zip, with a little zag, and a whole lot of spunk. Two bikes come to my mind, first off: The 2018 Suzuki GSX-S750 and the 2018 Honda CB650F.
These bikes are very similar in the best ways possible, especially in terms of quality craftsmanship and brand reputation. Suzuki and Honda motorcycles are both powerhouses in their own right. But, as we all know, the devil is in the details. It's time to compare stats and chime in with your vote for the ultimate conqueror of the urban grid. Help me make up my mind. These user-friendly, budget-friendly bikes are pretty awesome, but who should be the champion? Leave me a comment, I want to hear your thoughts!

Way cool! We're majorly snow-deficient here in central MO at the moment, but hope springs eternal (especially for two little boys with brand-new sleds). I'll get my dark-colored felt ready! (My 10-year-old is going to be ecstatic when he hears about your equally long-haired son, by the way...)
Cool! We have a snowflake book from the library we are reading. We have done the hairspray on a board to catch snowflakes, but not a cold piece of dark felt. We'll definitely have to try this - going to be snowing for days now! :)
Lori - such a neat tip! I can't wait to do this with my boys. :) </s> It was a beautiful opening with 'From Silence'. When the curtain was up, we saw a ballerina with stunning scarlet costume gracefully floating up in the air by a male dancer, with meditative piano music by Michael Nyman.
This was followed by four small pieces. I particularly liked 'Little Atlas' with music by my favourite Ludovico Einaudi. Very cool costume and lighting effects as well.
