Medicolegal Death Investigation encompasses the investigative processes, protocols and techniques involved in ascertaining the cause and manner of a person’s death. Investigations of this type are multifaceted and require the expertise of a multidisciplinary team of skilled practitioners.
A death investigation team may include experts such as death investigators, police officers, crime scene investigators, coroners/medical examiners, pathologists, paramedics, forensic anthropologists, and forensic odontologists, among others.
Each member of the team is critical and each role provides necessary information that may ultimately contribute to the resolution of the investigation. Our goal is to bring a multidisciplinary approach to this course to study the best practices and protocols within the death investigation community.
Many of us in this world are so busy trying to live life beyond its existence that truly living life to its fullest is a rather difficult affair. When you try making children understand a profound concept like Death, its difficult to penetrate through their innocent minds that there is going to be a vacuum created henceforth and that life moves on…For kids its probably a notion that God sent me here for a certain period in life and now that he’s so lonely after having created so many things around him, so he needs me back there! For the oldies "who have seen it all" its only a matter of time when they shall understand death in all its proximities. But truly, do any of us really understand what death is all about? Amidst the pain and the truthful experiences in life that make us wiser by the day its still leaves many questions unanswered, what do we mean by Death?
For younger kids , it’s easy to die for each other, as emotions take the better of us and dying for the other is but a "natural" feeling, though momentarily so! We assume life to be unending only to find that all this time spent was really to better equip yourself with the reality called "Death". Which perhaps explains the reason why as we get older, we tend to become closer and closer to God! Perhaps it’s the final reckoning with the Almighty that makes us do so.
The understanding of Death still remains a vital question. As many philosophies and religions propagate, death is but an extension of life itself. Though this life is more spiritual and less physical. Moreover, life being depicted as fulfilling all your dreams all along its passage makes this notion a wee bit difficult to digest. From a child’s perspective, it only hinders around giving and receiving Love. For children to understand the concept of dying purely means that the Almighty father who created us allowed us to live our lives. And since he created so many of us so that we aren’t loners on this planet, he gave us various examples of human existence, like friends, parents and people whom we related to on a day-to-day existence! When the mother made her six-year old understand the truth behind the created vacuum called Death, although confused, the child still had the sparkle of curiosity, for Death, as it were…..A curiosity, that we share too as adults!
Every death gets investigated. Regardless of whether the manner of death is known or still remains undetermined. When a death gets investigated the number one thing they look for is the cause. Cause of death is a disease or injury that initiated the events that lead to death. There are four manners in determining death, natural, accidental, homicidal, suicidal. An example would be, a gunshot could be three of the about choices. Manner may be undetermined. Each of these manners can be broken down even more. They can be broken into Mechanical Trauma (gunshot, stabbing) or Chemical Trauma (overdose, poison, etc), and even those two classifications can be broken down even more.
Medical Examiners also play a huge role in the investigation of a death. A medical examiner is a doctor/corner that performs an autopsy of the dead person. They open up the person in order to figure out exactly why they died.
With every death there is a death certificate; legal requirements mandate the completion of a death certificate, which will list the cause of death. The death certificate is not only for the relatives but it serves as a use to community. A death certificate functions on two levels. A death certificates primary concern of the medicolegal investigation as in the level of the individual decedent. Another level is legal level. For example, once the death certificate is issued the funeral arrangements can be made, the living spouse can get re-married if so desired, and all the belongings cab be divided between the beneficiaries. A death certificate is also a public health surveillance tool. It allows the members of society to know why the individual died, and it also helps the county to calculate its’ mortality rate.
Imagine that your newborn child was birthed without a hitch. What seems like an ordinary neonate, as health as can be, all of a sudden passes away without any explanation only hours of having been born. Now again, imagine you father seeming to be the picture of health suffers a heart attack suddenly and loses his life in the process. Your teenage brother, an athlete, suddenly drops during a game and loses his life without any real explanation. Sudden death affects a wide number of people throughout the world. You never know who, when, or why it’ll strike next. It could either be someone close to you, or even you yourself!
As defined by the dictionary, sudden death is a sudden and unexpected death. Often times though, an underlying problem can be identified which indicates that a case of sudden death may, in fact, occur, such things as high blood pressure and cholesterol, which can indicate a heart attack. Or a swollen heart which would indicate that someone could suddenly drop if they put themselves through too much activity. But there is one condition which seems to be unexplainable, and that condition goes by the name of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).
No one is too keen on understanding what causes SIDS, but it is very much a real thing. Infants cease to live with no real explanation, and for years it’s been this way without a valid explanation.
“SIDS is the sudden death of an infant under one year of age which remains unexplained after a thorough case investigation, including performance of a complete autopsy, examination of the death scene, and review of the clinical history. (Willinger et al, 1991).
In a typical situation parents check on their supposedly sleeping infant to find him or her dead. This is the worst tragedy parents can face, a tragedy which leaves them with sadness and a feeling of vulnerability that lasts throughout their lives. Since medicine cannot tell them why their baby died, they blame themselves and often other innocent people. Their lives and those around them are changed forever." -ASI (American SIDS Institute)
Sudden Death is something that occurs unexpectedly and from 1 to 24 hours after the onset of symptoms, with or without known preexisting conditions, which can completely throw off a investigator, at the scene of the death, because of the sudden and unexpected nature of their death. In the United States there are 275 unknown and sudden deaths across our country, it is up to the investigator to piece together the clues and find out what happened to the person who has died suddenly. According to the sudden death arrhythmic death syndrome website, the leading cause of this type of death is a heart condition that causes the person to die suddenly or having a form a disease. Also car crashes, obesity, murder, and suicide are also the major forms of sudden deaths in individuals. The investigator’s main goal in all of this is to identify the way the person died, and place the time of death. This is all done when they first arrive on the scene.
The way the medical investigator or coroner, goes about their investigation when they first arrive on the scene is to examine the body UNTOUCHED, and then try to piece together the puzzles of how they died. The main clues to tell of the causes of sudden death are if there are drugs in the home, or near the body, which could lead to an overdose. Another way to identify the causes, of death during an sudden death case is to examine the victims medical history. What this means is that they may have died due to a previous illness, or died from an allergic reaction. Another much more severe matter than natural causes of death is the possibility of a murder or suicide. The way the investigator goes about this is they, again investigate the body for any signs of self-inflicted wounds, or signs of abuse, bullet wounds, or anything along the lines that would constitute a murder.
All of this work the investigator does during the initial investigation tells the investigator, what tests they may need and to either rule out the possibilities of murder, suicide, or death by natural causes. The investigator needs to analyze all of this data in order to rule out any possibilities so they can get the right facts and info to clearly and effectively diagnose the cause of death in the individual. Again to reiterate ALL of this helps the investigator to trace down the real cause of death in which there is no true sign of how that individual may have died. All of this information is crucial, because it helps the families, and members of the city, town, and county, realize how they died and what could have been prevented in their untimely deaths providing a sort of closure, to the people who were involved so there are no unanswered questions left, and no one wondering what really happened to that particular individual who has died, due to the already suddenness of their death.
Deaths from fires and burns are the third leading cause of fatal home injury.The United State’s mortality rate from fires ranks eighth among the 25 developed countries for which statistics are available (International Association for the Study of Insurance Economics .
Although the number of fatalities and injuries caused by residential fires has declined gradually over the past several decades, many residential fire-related deaths remain preventable and continue to pose a significant public health problem.
The U.S. has one of the highest fire death rates in the industrialized world. For 1998, the U.S. fire death rate was 14.9 deaths per million population.
Between 1994 and 1998, an average of 4,400 Americans lost their lives and another 25,100 were injured annually as the result of fire.
Fire is the third leading cause of accidental death in the home; at least 80 percent of all fire deaths occur in residences.
About 2 million fires are reported each year. Many others go unreported, causing additional injuries and property loss.
The South has the highest fire death rate per-capita with 18.4 civilian deaths per million population.
80 percent of all fatalities occur in the home. Of those, approximately 85 percent occur in single-family homes and duplexes
Cooking is the leading cause of home fires in the U.S. It is also the leading cause of home fire injuries. Cooking fires often result from unattended cooking and human error, rather than mechanical failure of stoves or ovens.
Careless smoking is the leading cause of fire deaths. Smoke alarms and smolder-resistant bedding and upholstered furniture are significant fire deterrents.
Heating is the second leading cause of residential fires and the second leading cause of fire deaths. However, heating fires are a larger problem in single family homes than in apartments. Unlike apartments, the heating systems in single family homes are often not professionally maintained.
Arson is both the third leading cause of residential fires and residential fire deaths. In commercial properties, arson is the major cause of deaths, injuries and dollar loss.
Senior citizens age 70 and over and children under the age of 5 have the greatest risk of fire death.
African Americans and American Indians have significantly higher death rates per capita than the national average.
Although African Americans comprise 13 percent of the population, they account for 26 percent of fire deaths.
On average in the United States in 2010, someone died in a fire every 169 minutes, and someone was injured every 30 minutes.
In 2010, fire departments responded to 384,000 home fires in the United States, which claimed the lives of 2,640 people (not including firefighters) and injured another 13,350, not including firefighters.
Fire and burn injuries represent 1% of the incidence of injuries and 2% of the total costs of injuries, or $7.5 billion each year.
Fatal fire and burn injuries cost $3 billion, representing 2% of the total costs of all fatal injuries.
Hospitalized fire and burn injuries total $1 billion, or 1% of the total cost of all hospitalized injuries.
Non-hospitalized fire and burn injuries cost $3 billion, or 2% of the total cost of all non-hospitalized injuries.
Deaths from fires and burns are the third leading cause of fatal home injury.The United States mortality rate from fires ranks eighth among the 25 developed countries for which statistics are available. Although the number of fatalities and injuries caused by residential fires has declined gradually over the past several decades, many residential fire-related deaths remain preventable and continue to pose a significant public health problem. Each year in the United States and its protectorates,there are about 100 firefighters that are killed while on duty and tens of thousands are injured. Although the number of firefighter fatalities has steadily decreased over the past 20 years, the incidence of firefighter fatalities per 100,000 incidents has actually risen. In the last decade, several high-profile incidents involving firefighter fatalities have brought national attention to the issue of firefighter mortality in the United States. While the attention from the national media has been fleeting, the awareness of the continued high level of fatalities has changed the fabric of the fire service and prompted many organizations and fire departments to initiate programs to protect firefighters. Through research, study, training, improved operations, development of new technologies, the appropriate use of staffing, and other factors, it should be possible to significantly reduce the number of firefighters killed each year. * The U.S. has one of the highest fire death rates in the industrialized world. For 1998, the U.S. fire death rate was 14.9 deaths per million population.
Between 1994 and 1998, an average of 4,400 Americans lost their lives and another 25,100 were injured annually as the result of fire. About 100 firefighters are killed each year in duty-related incidents. In each year, fire kills more Americans than all natural disasters combined fire is the third leading cause of accidental death in the home; at least 80 percent of all fire deaths occur in residences.About 2 million fires are reported each year. Many others go unreported, causing additional injuries and property loss. Direct property loss due to fires is estimated at $8.6 billion annually.
In the united States there was 1,755,000 fires that happen in 1998, the kitchen has a higher percentage to have a fire then the laundry room. The South has the highest fire death rate per-capita with 18.4 civilian deaths per million population. The 80 percent of all fatalities occur in the home. Of those, approximately 85 percent occur in single-family homes and duplexes. There is so many cause for fires and deaths from fires and here are some reasons. Cooking is the top cause of home fires in the U.S. It is also the leading cause of home fire injuries. Cooking fires often result from unattended cooking and human error, rather than mechanical failure of stoves or ovens. Careless smoking is the top cause of fire deaths. Smoke alarms and smolder-resistant bedding and upholstered furniture are significant fire deterrents. The people that are most at risk of firedeaths are senior sitizens that are age of 70 and over,also children under 5 that have the greatest risk to fire death. In 1996 it is to be said that children under the age of 10, estimated that 17 percent of all fire deaths.
Postmortem interval is estimated based on physical, biochemical, and morphological changes in dead bodies. Many aspects affect onset and the course of the postmortem change. There is no discovered method for the accurate estimation of Postmortem Interval, especially with regards to decomposed dead bodies. Forensic Examiners aim to determine the consistency and the difference in the post postmortem interval estimations in cases. The variations are determined by Forensic medicine assistants and specialists from different centers. The possibility of estimating the post postmortem intervals in standard ways by using only post postmortem changes of decomposed bodies is next to impossible. Therefore, factors such as environmental conditions, the scene and judicial investigation findings should be taken in to consideration, especially in decomposed bodies.
When you find “bugs” on a dead body they can tell an Entomologist how long the body has been dead. Even though Entomologist are highly skilled they will not be able to give you an exact time of death, but the will be able to give you a close estimate. Their estimates range from a few hours for bodies that have been dead for a day or two, and bodies that have been dead for several years their range is normally off a couple months.
Entomologists use the idea of insects to narrow down post postmortem interval. Post postmortem interval is based on how insects develop or grow up. Entomologist need to know tow main items before he can arrive at the post postmortem interval. First he needs to know that insect he is dealing with and its species. Secondly he needs to have some sort of estimate of the temperature as to when the insects were developed. This is just a few of the ways post postmortem interval is reached.
Having to Identify a person who is dead can be very easy, or very difficult. The person may have died of natural causes in their home making it easy to identify them. But what if that is not the case. What if the person was found floating in the river, or laying in the woods with no ID. I am going to discuss the process that law enforcement uses to identify this people. I will touch on the use of finger printing, the use of dental records and of course the use of DNA.
The most common method used is finger printing. When a corpse comes in with no id or any other identifying information on them the police use their finger prints. They simply scan the bottom side of the fingers into the system and try to match them against sets in their data base. This will help identify them provided that their prints are in the system from a previous run in with the law, or maybe from a background investigation.
Another method used might be dental records. If the body were to come in and had been burned leaving no finger prints or identifying features they would turn to these records to help. Everybody goes to the dentist in their life, so chances are they have x-rays of their teeth. Using these X-rays they can match them to the dead body’s teeth, helping them to figure out their name. According to the National Association of Medical Examiners this method was used on average of 10 to 12 thousand times a year since 1995. With the growing number of crime such as murder this number will likely continue to grow.
The use of DNA is a relatively new procedure used by law enforcement to identify the dead. Only one-tenth of a single percent of DNA (about 3 million bases) differs from one person to the next. Scientists can use these variable regions to generate a DNA profile of an individual, using samples from blood, bone, hair, and other body tissues and products. The DNA is the put into a system called CODIS which is basically a databank of DNA. They can try and match the DNA in this system. If it is not matched then it stored so it can be matched in the future to help identify the victim. They could also take DNA from a family member and try to match the victims that way.
The Three methods I have explained above are the most common ways police and coroners use today. With advances in science, medical and technology I would not be surprised if more advanced methods appear in the future.
There are lots of situations in which investigators are needed to identify bodies that have been found at: crime scenes, natural disaster locations, plane crashes, during times of war. How do you identify a body, that has no personal identification? Determining who a Jon/Jane Doe is can sometimes be very strenuous.
Modern science, and technology has enabled death investigators, and forensic scientists numerous ways of identifying an unknown body. Initially, one of the first things that should be noted when the discovery of a body without any forms of identification is made. Is if they don’t have I.D. due to the circumstances leading up to the death of the individual, or if it was a conscious decision made by the individual prior to their death. For example, were they potentially shot and robbed with wallet stolen, or did they die somewhere they wouldn’t have been expected to have any form of I.D. like swimming in a lake/ocean. Or potentially are they an illegal alien with no known forms of identification on any records. Simply knowing that much can get a medico legal death investigator on the right path of the victim being killed, or if it was due to natural or accidental causes, if that information wasn’t known prior to this point.
When it comes to identifying the deceased forensic science and forensic medicine are both crucial weapons in any law enforcement agency's armory.
Fingers: fingerprints carry unique characteristics that can identify every person individually. Fingerprinting has increasingly grown to be the most respected method for identifying persons. Over ten thousand people daily are added to fingerprint repositories in America alone. Fingerprint identifications have lead to more positive identifications of bodies than any other human identification procedure.
Teeth: Often times digital photographs can be taken of the teeth and then compared to a picture of them smiling while they were alive. Teeth are able to be used to identify the remains of persons even when the body is entirely distorted due to fire or water damage.
Bones: Bones identify sex, age, race. The leg and arm bones can also be used to determine overall stature and weight range. Bones can also be used if specific known injuries or issues existed prior to the death of the individual. For example, victim had broken arm as a child, and had pins put in leg. Then evidence of those surgeries or locations of healing will be present on the body. Bones can also be used to determine cause of death, if the person was badly beaten or crushed evidence will show that the injury sustained paired with extent of body’s natural functions such as bleeding, clotting, swelling, and bruising at point of injury are consistent with known time of death and time injury was sustained if both times are not the same initially.
Skull: There are now computer graphics that can be used to perform facial reconstruction allowing a fairly accurate depiction of what the persons face would look like and these pictures could then be distributed to aid in identification. Like other bones, race and sex can also be determined by the skull.
Hair: Results from hair can be very difficult to determine as numerous factors can contribute the results. Everything from the location of where the hair was taken, to the chemicals the person used to treat there hair (shampoo’s, dyes, and hairspray) are able to aid in identifying a person.
Joints and soft tissue: Almost 100 percent of the time, if you have something surgically implanted in you by a surgeon, then it will have a documented serial number on record. For medical examiners, these small codes can close cases and give some comfort to the family of the identified. Originally intended to speed recall of defective devices and ensure patient safety, serial numbers on implants and prosthetics are now being used to hurry the identification of John or Jane Does.
Skin: This depends on the rate and amount of body decomposition, but things such as scars, birthmarks, and tattoo’s can be used in the identification process.
Due to exponential leaps in modern technology and the understanding of DNA matching tests, there is faster and more accurate positive identifications of deceased bodies, which is significantly important in solving crimes.
There are a few ways to identify a dead body, either one that has been murdered or died of natural causes. The first would be Physical items, then Fingerprints, then dental records, and last DNA. There are other less common forms but these are the most used and most effective and efficient in identifying a deceased human.
The first and easiest way to identify a deceased body is to check the body for physical items with the person’s name on it. A small list of these things that people might carry on them when they die are
The list can go on and on but just anything that they would carry in their wallets that would have their name on it. This is the easiest form of identifying a dead body.
The next way to identify a dead body would be finger prints. Finger prints work so well because no two people in the world have the same fingerprints so it is a great way to identify people whos faces cannot be recognized. There are 3 ways of making finger prints visible,
These three methods can effectively make a print visible which can be collected and put through data bases to see if it is anybody that has been fingerprinted before. If they have been finger printed before they will be in the system and they can be identified.
The third way to identify someone is through their dental records. This form of identification is for when there is a lot of physical damage to the body due to fire, acid or decay. Your teeth are much harder than other organic body material you are made of. This is only a good technique when you know if the person was supposed to be there, say a house fire and you know the five people who lived there, but they were unrecognizable, you can then use the dental records to identify who was who, and gwt the right names to the right bodies.
The last form of identifying a body that I will talk about is DNA profiling. This is the longer process and the harder form, but DNA from the dead body can be compared to a hair from a comb of the deceased to see if they are a match and can be identified that way. The DNA from the dead body can also be used to see if you are the parents or not. Taking DNA from both parents can determine whether or not the deceased was related to them or not.
There are other more obscure ways of identifying a body but those four were the easiest and most used methods of identifying a deceased person.
Death by firearms is ranked one of the highest means of death in the United States whether by a homicide, suicide, or accidental death. Approximately 30,000 people die every year in the United States from gunshot wounds. I will examine the characteristics of gunshot wounds, including entry wounds, bullet tracks, and exit wounds.
The entry wound can be distinguished from the exit wound with close examination. The distance from which the gun was fired is determined by the surface of the wound. Wounds in which the muzzle of the gun was placed directly against the victim’s body will show soot on the surface of the skin, possible muzzle imprints, and tearing of the skin from the effect of hot gases being forced into the skin. Close range wounds lack the cuts and tears, produced from the gas, and muzzle imprints but show more powder stippling in a wider diameter around the wound. A long range wound lacks muzzle imprints, gas tears, and powder stippling. A long range bullet does have the unique characteristic of producing an entry hole the size of the actual bullet, unlike that of the other range entry wounds. Even with varying range characteristics, it is often quite difficult to determine the distance of the shot fired. There are many other factors that affect the prediction of range. Some of the factors are actual distance, size of the firearm barrel, gunpowder, angles, and the environment. These all can have a huge effect on the characteristic of the wound and make it hard for the investigator to establish the distance at which the gun was fired.
The track of the bullet can be influenced by many different factors. For example, the type of tissue the bullet impacts can have great effect on the damage done. Tissue with a high specific density, fatty tissue, will sustain more damage compared to tissue with low density and high elasticity found in the lungs. Organs that contain liquid will burst if hit due to high pressure waves. Bones will fragment and shatter when hit and produce tiny missiles that cause even more damage to surrounding tissue. Damage can also be affected by the type of bullet. Hollow point bullets are made to expand and flatten as it hits a substance. This would produce a wider cavity and more catastrophic damage than that of a solid point or full metal jacketed bullet. Also, tumbling of the bullet will produce a more catastrophic bullet track than if the bullet moves through the mass with a perfect spiral produced by the gun.
The exit wound is not intended to exist because most bullets are not made to penetrate the body, intern causing the most damage possible. Using more powerful loads than necessary causes the exit wound. The exit wound is usually larger in size than that of the entry. The reason for this is the lack of substance to contain the exit wound, whether it stays on the spiral axis or tumbles through the body. The exit wound can also be misleading if the victim is leaning against something. This may cause a smaller exit wound because the bullet has a substance to transfer the energy into.
A wound is a "disruption of the continuity of tissues produced by external mechanical force". Medico legal death investigators commonly perform wound pattern analysis. The findings by investigators can be crucial in identifying cause and manor of death. By establishing evidence as to what the weapon was and how it was used can be essential in the convicting of the offender.
Wound pattern analysis involves the recognition, preservation, documentation, examination, and reconstruction of the nature, origin, and intent of physical injuries (Turvey p. 223)
Wound types may vary from bullet, stabbing, blunt force, rape, poisoning (considered to be toxicological domain), burn, or traffic fatality. Regardless of the type of wound, experts can establish clues to the manner of death. Expert pathologists from the Forensic Panel are able to analyze whether the wound was received perimortem or postmortem
Firearms account for almost two-thirds of the homicides committed in the United States so essentially pathologists must be well trained in gunshot wounds. The Forensic Panel employs highly skilled pathologists who are able to distinguish the subtle differences between contact and near contact gunshot wounds, medium range gunshot wounds, and distant gunshot wounds. This process involves both technology and experience to determine various relevant details such as the trajectory, or range of the bullet. The path traveled between entry and exit wounds; the likelihood of survival after sustaining a gunshot; make and model of the gun; and especially the specific manner of death.
Blunt Force Trauma: Blunt force trauma is the impact or contact of a weapon on part of, or all of one’s body. It can vary by the location of the trauma, the weapon used, and force behind the weapon. Blunt force trauma is further analyzed into three sub-categories.
Abrasions - which is the removal of the superficial layers of skin. This could be caused by the body being drug across the floor or even the severe friction caused by clothing if the body was forcefully moved.
Contusions - injuries that cause a break in blood vessels but not the skin. Most commonly known as bruises and hemorrhages.
Lacerations - torn jagged wounds that tend to have abraded edges and are different then sharp force injuries.
Other common forms of wounds are, burns - which are caused directly or indirectly by heat, fire, or chemicals; Sharp force injury‘s - caused by pointed, bladed or edged objects; gunshot wounds; and finally therapeutic/diagnostic wounds - injuries inflicted by EMS personnel during treatment.
Its extremely important to document all actions performed by any emergency personnel to differentiate those wounds from wounds inflicted prior to their arrival.
Not always, but sometimes bruises can be a great indicator of points of injury, force, and size of object used. However a great deal of experience comes into play in determining their validity to the victim. First an investigator must determine if the bruised area was inflicted peri or postmortem. Then differentiating between postmortem bruising and postmortem lavidity has to be made. After the body has set for a period of time the blood begins to settle. This causes a purplish discoloration of the dependent parts of the body with sparing of areas of pressure contact (Turvey). Bruising can vary by age, sex, skin color/race, location of impact. Infants and elderly tend to bruise more easily then do young to middle aged. Women bruise more easily then men because they have more subcutaneous fat, this is especially true of obese women. Skin color plays a factor bruising can be more easily seen in red heads and blondes rather than tanner individuals; in blacks even extensive bruising can be masked by natural skin color.
There are many different forms of wound types that vary anywhere from bullets and stabbing to blunt force and burns. No matter the type, each leaves a different pattern and tells about the victim’s manner of death. A forensic pathologists job is to investigate what the wound ‘tells’ about how and what caused it. Though blunt force wounds don’t always leave the same evidence of diffusion as a gunshot or knife, pathologists may still be able to complete conclusive determinations about the trauma. Pathologist can deter from the wounds if it was caused by any of the following:
Not only would they assess the wound, but also examine the force and magnitude of infliction, which would lead to a conclusion of the cause of injury or death.
“Blunt force trauma is-as its name would suggest- a severe traumatic episode caused to the body or head with the sudden introduction of a blunt instrument used with great force.” This could be caused by an attacker striking out at a victim with: hands, a large piece of wood, baseball bat or other such item that could cause severe damage to a body or skull if impacted quickly. Experimental studies have shown, by analyzing forces generated by punching and kicking a ‘punch-ball’ that men can punch up to a force of 500-750 N and kick between 750-1200 N, while women can only punch up to 350-550 N, and kick 500-750 N.
Now though most cases you may see involve blunt force being caused by a person’s hands, feet, head, or even a bat, or other foreign object; it can also be seen being caused from a car accident, such as from the dashboard, steering wheel, or even the rear of the driver and passenger seats from victims not wearing their seatbelts. Blunt force could even happen without the result of many visible indicators. Individuals who die from this do so because of internal injuries received from the force, resulting in nothing more than exterior bruising that may not seem alarming.
Bruising: Shows good indicator that there are broken blood vessels under the skin’s surface. Although some bruising may occur, this is not technically a definite indicator of how much damage that may have occurred deeper within the body, such as in the chest cavity and even around the lungs.
Abrasions: Cuts, grazing of the skin or friction burns which can be caused by the victim being beaten, dragged or kicked. These wounds can sometimes indicate that a victim hit against something or was hit with something and it can also be used to measure how much of a struggle the victim put up against his or her attacker.
Lacerations: This is the tearing of tissue underneath the skin. An individual may be beaten severely or have sustained a severe bump against a stationary object and underneath the skin there may be severe damage caused to tissue and organs. Visual examinations do not always show this to be case and if the victim has died an autopsy will most certainly be carried out.
It’s also worth mentioning that the above do not always have to be present on the body of the victim of an attack to prove that blunt force trauma has been the root cause. This is because of the differences in the varying areas of the body relating to softness of tissue and mass of bone. In all aspects of blunt force, it’s a given that whether the cause of death can be visually recorded or not an autopsy will be carried out to prove definitively how the victim died.
Every day, about ten people die from unintentional drowning. Of these, two are children aged 14 or younger. Drowning is the sixth leading cause of unintentional injury death for people of all ages, and the second leading cause of death for children ages 1 to 14 years.
Each day in the United States, nine people drown.For each death caused by drowning, there are 1-4 nonfatal submersion accidents serious enough for the victim to be hospitilized.Drowning is the second leading cause of accidental injury-related death among children ages 1 to 14.Drowning is the leading cause of accidental injury-related death among children ages 1 to 4.Male children have a drowning rate more than two times that of female children. However, females having a bathtub drowning rate twice that of males.Among children ages 1 to 4 years, most drownings occur in residential swimming pools.Four-sided fencing that isolates the pool from the house and the yard has shown to decrease the number of drowning injuries anywhere from 50 to 90 percent.More than half of drownings among infants (under age 1) occur in bathtubs, buckets or toilets.Nonfatal drownings can result in brain damage that may result in long-term disabilities including memory problems, learning disabilities, and permanent loss of basic functioning.Nineteen percent of child drowning fatalities take place in public pools with certified lifeguards on duty.Roughly 5,000 children 14 and under go to the hospital because of accidental drowning-related incidents each year; 15% die and about 20% suffer from permanent neurological disability.Seventy-seven percent of those involved in a home-drowning accident had only been missing for five minutes or less when found in the swimming pool; 70% weren’t expected to be in or near the pool at that time.The most common place for a 1-4-year old child to drown is in a home swimming pool.In nearly 9 out of 10 child-drowning deaths, a parent or caregiver claimed to be watching the child.
In 2007, there were 3,443 fatal unintentional drownings (non-boating related) in the United States, averaging ten deaths per day. An additional 496 people died from drowning in boating-related incidents.1,2
More than one in five people who die from drowning are children 14 and younger.1 For every child who dies from drowning, another four received emergency department care for nonfatal submersion injuries.1
More than 55% of drowning victims treated in emergency departments require hospitalization or transfer for higher levels of care (compared to a hospitalization rate of 3-5% for all unintentional injuries).1 These injuries can be severe.
Nonfatal drownings can cause brain damage that may result in long-term disabilities including memory problems, learning disabilities, and permanent loss of basic functioning (e.g., permanent vegetative state).
Children: Children ages 1 to 4 have the highest drowning rates. In 2007, among children 1 to 4 years old who died from an unintentional injury, almost 30% died from drowning.1 Fatal drowning remains the second-leading cause of unintentional injury-related death for children ages 1 to 14 years.3
Between 2000 and 2007, the fatal unintentional drowning rate for African Americans across all ages was 1.3 times that of whites. For American Indians and Alaskan Natives, this rate was 1.7 times that of whites.1
Rates of fatal drowning are notably higher among these populations in certain age groups. The fatal drowning rate of African American children ages 5 to 14 is 3.1 times that of white children in the same age range. For American Indian and Alaskan Native children, the fatal drowning rate is 2.3 times higher than for white children.1
Factors such as the physical environment (e.g., access to swimming pools) and a combination of social and cultural issues (e.g., wanting to learn how to swim, and choosing recreational water-related activities) may contribute to the racial differences in drowning rates. Current rates are based on population, and not on participation. If rates could be determined by actual participation in water-related activities, disparity in minorities drowning rates compared to whites would be much greater.4
Lack of Supervision and Barriers. Supervision by a lifeguard or designated water-watcher is important to protect young children when they are in the water, whether a pool or bathtub. But when children are not supposed to be in the water, supervision alone isn’t enough to keep them safe.
Barriers such as pool fencing should be used to help prevent young children from gaining access to the pool area without caregivers’ awareness.5 There is an 83% reduction in the risk of childhood drowning with a four-sided isolation pool fence, compared to three-sided property-line fencing.
Among children ages 1 to 4 years, most drownings occur in residential swimming pools. Most young children who drowned in pools were last seen in the home, had been out of sight less than five minutes, and were in the care of one or both parents at the time.
Natual Water Settings (such as lakes, rivers, or the ocean). The percent of drownings in natural water settings increases with age. When a location was known, 65% of drownings among those 15 years and older occurred in natural water settings.
Lack of Life Jacket Use in Recreational Boating. In 2009, the U.S. Coast Guard received reports for 4,730 boating incidents; 3,358 boaters were reported injured, and 736 died. Among those who drowned, 9 out of 10 were not wearing life jackets.9 Most boating fatalities that occurred during 2008 (72%) were caused by drowning with 90% of victims not wearing life jackets; the remainder were due to trauma, hypothermia, carbon monoxide poisoning, or other causes.
Alcohol Use. Alcohol use is involved in up to half of adolescent and adult deaths associated with water recreation and about one in five reported boating fatalities.9, 10 Alcohol influences balance, coordination, and judgment, and its effects are heightened by sun exposure and heat.
Seizure Disorders. For persons with seizure disorders, drowning is the most common cause of unintentional injury death, with the bathtub as the site of highest drowning risk.
Participation in formal swimming lessons can reduce the risk of drowning by 88% among children aged 1 to 4 years.
Seconds count. CPR performed by bystanders has been shown to improve outcomes in drowning victims. The more quickly intervention occurs, the better change of improved outcomes.
Men of all ages, races, and educational levels consistently reported greater swimming ability than women.
Drowning is a quick and silent way of death since the victim is unable to shout and call for help. It is technically a death from asphyxia due to suffocation caused by water entering the lungs and preventing the absorption of oxygen. It’s hard to spot a drowning victim but once you are trained the signs are easier to detect. A drowning victim will have their head in the water or mouth at water level, eyes glassy and empty and unable to focus, they might be hyperventilating or gasping, they might also be trying to swim in a particular direction but not making any progress. Drowning victims can be divided into two categories; active and passive.
Active Drowning: people who are exhausted or hypothermic at the surface, who are not able to hold their mouth about water and are suffocating because of lack of air.
Passive Drowning: People who suddenly sink or have sunk due to a change in their circumstances, like people who are in an accident or lose consciousness due to medical reasons.
There are a few factors that could suggest whether a drowning is homicide, suicide or accidental, but with the proper set up, you can make a fictional drowning look like anything you want.
Shallow water: Drowning in shallow water could indicate either an accident or murder, especially if the victim is undressed. A killer will remove the victim's clothing to make it look like an accident. If the body is fully clothed, it is most likely a suicide since the victim doesn't want to be found nude.
Evidence of other injuries: If the victim shows evidence of gunshot wounds, bruises or cuts, it's likely murder. The discovery of alcohol or drugs at the scene could indicate an accidental drowning.
One example of a drowning that appeared to be an accident is the Natalie Wood case. The tragedy from 1981 has recently turned up new evidence to suggest this accident is actually a homicide. Marilyn Wayne a woman who was on a nearby sailboat has recently come forward with testimony. Wood died while she was boating on the yacht Splendour with her husband, Rober Wagner, and actor Christopher Walken. Her body was found the next morning, floating in the water about a mile away from the yacht. According to police and autopsy reports, she had dozens of bruises on her body and injuries to her face and arms. The official cause of death was listed as accidental drowning, and there was no determination of foul play. Police recently reopened the investigation of Wood’s drowning death, citing “additional information” in the case.
“A woman’s voice, crying for help from drowning awakened John, and he awakened me,” Wayne said in a sworn statement to investigators. “Alarmed, I called out to my son, who also heard the cries, and looked at his new digital watch: it was just minutes after 11:00 P.M.”
“While listening to the cries, we called the harbor patrol but no one answered,” Wayne said in her statement. “Then we called the sheriff’s office in Avalon, 12 miles away, and whoever answered told us a helicopter would be sent, but it did not come. We heard loud music coming from somewhere, so thought there was a party on a nearby boat. Then I heard a man’s voice, slurred, and in aggravated tone, say something to the effect of, “Oh, hold on, we’re coming to get you,” and not long after, the cries for help subsided, but we heard the cries for up to 15 minutes. We returned to bed, terribly disturbed.”
Immersion and Drowning, is defined as the process of deprive of life by immersion in water or other liquid, to be suffocated in water or other fluid and to perish in water. Drowning is the case of a person being submerged in water for a prolonged period of time without oxygen and the ability to keep their own bodies afloat. In the United States according to the CDC(Center of Disease control and prevention, drowning is the 6th leading cause of death in unintentional cases, and 1 in 5 people who die from drowning are children 14 and younger. The biggest group that is most at risk to death by this nature is males nearly 80% of all drowning are males, with children ranking out the bottom portion of the two groups that are most at risk of death by drowning. Drowning deaths are most commonly caused by alcohol consumption, boating accidents, child abuse or neglect, falling through ice on a frozen surface, Inability to swim, suicide attempts, sustaining a neck or head injury during swimming. The main ways to identify if a person is drowning, is if they are showing distress in the water, laying motionless in the water, or their mouth is wide open and their head is the only thing showing.
During the actual process of a person drowning, the individual panics and goes underneath the water, with their heart beating in irregular motions because of the fact they cannot deliver oxygen to the brain. The main way to identify if a person has drowned according to emedicinehealth, is if the person has blue or pale skin, with the individual coughing up a pink putum which is the mucus brought up from the lungs. This all happens within the span of 6 minutes which is how long a person’s brain can survive without the constant supply of oxygen to it.
In most cases of boating and swimming accidents the majority of drowning cases happen in mild to cold water temperature, because of the water’s temperature the person enters the state of hypothermia, which is one of the main reasons a person drowns. Hypothermia in its dictionary format is the condition of having an abnormally low body temperature, typically one that is dangerously low. Drowning deaths can however be prevented with proper care and caution. These are done by having supervision, swimming with others around you, learning to swim, and wearing lifejackets in deeper waters, along with knowing the proper weather conditions if you are in open bodies of water. Another helpful hint to avoid death by drowning is to learn cpr, which can bring back the individual from death if the person helping can be on the scene when the person is showing the symptoms of drowning.
In conclusion drowning and immersion deaths are the process of a person being immersed in water or other suffocating actions, such as avalanches or rock slides, preventing the person afflicted from being able to deliver oxygen to their brain which results in the persons death or serious injury to the brain which can result in the person turning into a vegetable for the rest of their lives. Following the tips given in the duration of the paper, death can be avoided saving people the grief of finding their loved ones washed ashore or inside of the family pool. With everything stated all of these deaths can be prevented if the individual is just more cautious about their surroundings.
Asphyxiation is defined as an inadequate supply of oxygen reaching the body. Many deaths have been attributed to asphyxiation. Some types of deaths by asphyxiation include: smothering, carbon monoxide poisoning, and compressive asphyxia.
Smothering occurs when the nose and mouth are partially or completely covered, either with a pillow, hand, or any other item used to stop or restrict oxygen flow to the body. A common occurrence of death by asphyxiation is when babies sleep with their parents. Asphyxiation occurs when the parent roles over on top of the child unknowingly, prohibiting the child from breathing. Sudden infant death syndrome is often mistaken to be the cause of death in these situations when it is not. Smothering is sometimes the cause of death in a homicide, as with the West Port murders. William Burke and William Hare killed many drunks by sitting on the victim’s chest and covering their mouth and nose with their hands. Smothering is the restriction of air by covering the airways which leads to death.
Carbon monoxide poisoning is another type of asphyxiation. Carbon monoxide has a greater affinity than oxygen. Once in the blood stream, carbon monoxide displaces the oxygen stopping blood flow which leads to death. A characteristic of carbon monoxide poisoning is seizures. Seizures cause the constricting of muscles. This explains that when people die from carbon monoxide poisoning they are found with clinched fists and arms tightly against their chest. Carbon monoxide poisoning is deadly and usually has the victim literally fighting for their life during their last few moments on earth.
Compressive asphyxia is the compression of the torso making the victim unable to inhale. Compressive asphyxia often occurs in vehicle accidents when the victim is pinned or crushed by the vehicle. An example of a vehicle pinning a person occurred during maintenance to the vehicle. The victim did not use a properly rated jack; the jack had a leak, or he failed to put the jack in the locked position. While under the car, the jack slowly settled and pinned the man. Because the man sustained no broken ribs characterized by a sudden fall, the cause of death was compressive asphyxia. Concluding, he was pinned and could not inhale, causing death. Large packed crowds can also cause compressive asphyxiation. This is more common than trampling’s caused by large crowds. In conclusion, compressive asphyxia is caused by any type of force crushing or pinning the torso, stopping the breathing process.
Death by asphyxiation can be caused by anything that completely or partially restricts oxygen flow to the body. Smothering, carbon monoxide poisoning, and compressive asphyxia are just some forms of asphyxiation. No matter what type of asphyxiation occurs, the end is the same, no oxygen- no life.
“While some sexual practices can be considered physically dangerous in a general way, sexual asphyxia stands out as having the clear potential to result in a lethal end.” Sexual asphyxia can be practiced in two ones, one as an autoerotic activity, and two as a consensual sadomasochistic act; between two or more people. Equally, nonconsensual asphyxia would be for the needs of the person restricting the other person’s oxygen source and is best described as an intentional criminal act. (Sexual Asphyxia will be referred to as ‘S/M’ from this point on.)
“S/M sex includes a wide range of sexual activities between two consenting adults that may include, but not limited to, the use of physical and/or psychological stimulation to produce sexual arousal and satisfaction. S/M sex is difficult to define precisely because of the wide range of activities involved. There are four major categories of S/M: 1) infliction of physical pain, usually by means of whipping, spanking, slapping or the applications of heat and cold; 2) verbal or psychological stimulation such as threats and insults; 3) dominance and submission, for example, one person ordering the other to do his or her bidding; 4) bondage and discipline, involving restraints such as rope and chains and/or punishment for real or fabricated transgressions.
Given the wide range of S/M, analysts have observed five features generally present in these encounters:
5) Mutual definition- participants must agree on the parameters of what they are doing, whether they call it SM or not.
Hazelwood and Dietz give 12 autoerotic death scene characteristics, as expanded on and discussed in Autoerotic Death by Brent Turvey, and now taken from Turvey’s Criminal Profiling: An Introduction to Behavioral Evidence Analysis:
1) Location: in autoerotic deaths, the location is likely to be a secluded area with a reasonable expectation of privacy.
2) Body position: In SM hangings, the victim’s body may be partially supported by the ground, or the victim may even appear to have simply been able to stand up to avoid strangulation.
3) High-risk elements: are items brought into the autoerotic activity to enhance physical or psychological pleasure. Can include anything from drugs and alcohol to weapons. (These will increase the risk of autoerotic death.)
4) Self-rescue mechanism: is any provision that allows the victim to voluntarily stop the high-risk element’s effect.
6) Masochistic behavior: refers to inflicting psychological or physical pain upon sexual areas of the body, or other body parts. It’s important to look not only for indicators of current use but also for healed injuries suggesting a history of such behavior.
7) Clothing: victim may be dressed in fetishistic attire or in one or more article of female clothing. Clothing is not always a useful indication in cases of autoerotic death. It’s possible for victims of autoerotic fatalities to be fully dressed, nude, or in a state of partial undress.
8) Protective measures: victim will often not want injuries sustained during regularly occurring autoerotic behaviors to be visible to others.
9) Sexual paraphernalia and props: are items found on or near the victim that assist in sexual fantasy.
10) Masturbatory activity: absence of sperm or semen at the scene does not rule out autoerotic death. The victim may or may not have been manually masturbating at the time of death.
11) Evidence of prior autoerotic activity: includes evidence of behavior similar to that found at the scene that predates the fatality.
12) No apparent suicidal intent: victim had plans for future events, has no history of depression, and/or had recently paid monthly bills, and had spoken to friends of looking forward to a specific event. Absence of a suicide note is not necessarily an indication of an autoerotic event, if one is present, it must be determined that it was written around the time of death and is not a prop.
Suicide is the third leading cause of deaths for 15-24 year olds. Suicide has affected almost everyone in one way or another whether it being through a friend, family member, or coworker. It’s important to recognize the signs and know what to do. Many teenagers have thoughts of death and these thoughts need to be viewed as a cry for help. Sometimes thoughts turn into actions and can result in attempts on the person’s life. It’s imperative to take a suicide attempt seriously, as many as 25 attempts are made for each suicide that is completed. There is also a correlation between gender and suicide, males are four times more likely to die from suicide than females are even though females have been proved to think about it more often. Females usually tend to resort to cutting or overdosing on drugs while males use more lethal methods such as firearms, hanging, or jumping from heights. Boys are less likely to call for help and do not allow for intervention the way girls are open to which gives males little opportunity to get into treatment. Teen suicide is preventable and it’s crucial to look for the signs and know what to do in case it happens to someone close to you because when a teen commits suicide it affects everyone around them.
These intense feelings and actions can contribute to a teen’s sense of helplessness and a general feeling that life isn’t worth living. Taking these feelings seriously is an important part of preventing teen suicide. The risk of suicide increases dramatically when the teen has access to a firearm, nearly 60% of all suicides in the United States are committed with a gun.
Suicide among teens often occurs after a stressful event such as a breakup or a death in the family. A teen who is thinking about suicide might:
There are many ways to help someone thinking about suicide, most of the time the person is just looking for someone to listen to them. It’s important to continue to communicate and express feelings of love and concern. If someone confides in you show them that you take them seriously, and that you’re there to help. It’s important not to minimize or discount the problems, this may validate the feelings of hopelessness the teen feels. Another important thing to do is not hesitating to get help. Contact a local mental health association or find a psychiatrist to conduct a proper evaluation. Make sure the person keeps their appointments, even if they claim they are feeling better. No matter what if someone tells you they’re thinking of suicide, don’t brush it off. Take every threat seriously because the one time you don’t is the time it might be true.
Suicide, as defined by Google’s dictionary, is “The action of killing oneself intentionally”. Easy enough, right? Well yea, but if you really want to make things more challenging, then one must get to the root of why people actually commit that act of suicide.
Suicide ends the lives of nearly 30,000 people in America each year. Now, I know that this doesn’t seem like a big number compared to a population of 307,006,550, but it’s still a very significant number. Especially when there are over twice the number of deaths due to suicide than there are due to aids.
Did you know that in more ancient times, when Samurai fought in the lands of Japan, they would commit suicide if they’d ever failed to hold up to their word, they would dishonor themselves and would perform a ritual form of suicide to redeem himself. This ritual form of suicide was called Seppuku, or more specifically called Hara-Kiri. Now I’m pretty sure that there are other tribes out there today who may practice similar rituals, but as far as things go today, suicide is a serious problem within this country.
There is significant research that shows us that there is a very, very strong correlation between depression and suicide. Depression from what, you may ask? Financial difficulty, loss of loved ones, abuse, emotional scarring, birth defects, or even just not feeling beautiful are all plausible reasons as to why some people may want to even consider ending their lives. Depression is a serious thing and usually drives people to wanting to end their lives, and if you notice someone is depressed you should step in to help.
Simply talk to the person you suspect, whether friend, family member, co-worker, or otherwise, this could be the first step to helping someone. The next step is to never keep a plan for suicide a secret. If you feel you need that person to stay alive then put your relationship aside for that person. Tell someone else who can help and another who can help. Get all the help you can! Lastly, don’t make their problems seem small or make them feel bad for feeling the way they do, this will only drive them away.
Suicide is the act of a person taking their own life. Suicide is often commited out of despair. They may have a mental disorder, be depressed, or even have financial difficulties. Believe it or not there are many types of suicide. Self harm, assisted suicide, murder suicide, mass suicide, just to name a few. I will explain this methods and give a little you a little insight on maybe why people do this.
Self Harm is the most common type of suicide. When someone is at the end of their rope, and feel like they have nothing to live for the might end there own life. There are many ways for them to do this. Death by hanging, they take a strong piece of rope or bed sheet or even a belt, rap around there throat to cut off air flow. Some prefer a easier way like taking a gun, and putting a bullet through brain or heart ending their life very quickly. There is yet another way of ending your life. Many will overdose on drugs. By taking a handful of pills one could lay down go to sleep and never wakeup.
Assisted suicide would be killing themselves with help. Individuals who wish to end their own lives may enlist the assistance of another person to achieve death. The other person, usually a family member or physician, may help carry out the act if the individual lacks the physical capacity to do so even with the supplied means. Assisted suicide is a contentious moral and political issue in many countries, as seen in the scandal surrounding Dr Kevorkian, who supported euthanasia, was found to have helped patients end their own lives and was sentenced to prison time.
Mass suicides are another type of suicide. This type is usually caused by peer pressure. One person who has a lot of mind control of a group, like in some religious cults, might convince a group of followers if you will, that they should commit suicide for a certain cause. An example of this would be members of the Peoples Temple in 1978 led by Jim Jones all commiting suicide at the same time for the same cause.
So what causes people to do this. Mental illness is the cause of about 78 percent of all suicide. Substance abuse is another cause. Up to 25 percent of alcholics and drug abusers commit suicide. So there are many reasons why people commit suicide, and many ways to do it, but it all has the same result.
There are many things the first officer at the scene must do to properly contain a crime scene. The first at the scene is responsible for locking down the scene to make sure nothing gets moved or contaminated before the entire scene has been documented and all evidence has been collected and tagged. Here is a list of a few things the first officer at the scene must do,
2. Notify or request notification of DA representative (Only for legal questions, do not allow a lawyer to get involved in the actual investigation. Their training limits them to the providing advise on legal issues only).
a. Clear unauthorized person from the scene. NOTE: You cannot worry about hurting someone’s feelings. If they do not belong tell them to leave. This must include any unauthorized police command.
b. Prevent anyone from touching the body or disturbing anything pending the arrival of the medical examiner, identification personnel,and investigative officers.
CAUTION - Be aware that there are search and seizure problems in this area. If in doubt you may wish to contact your DA regarding a warrant or other advise.
NOTE: - At night - Obtain adequate lighting before scene processing commences. Artificial lighting used must be adequate for photography and for minute detail search for items such as hair, cartridge cases, etc.
WHEN LIGHTING NOT AVAILABLE - secure scene under guard and wait for daylight before processing is commenced.
Investigating cause of death doesn’t just apply to people. When pets or wild animals die, we can perform a necropsy (autopsy of an animal) to find out why. You can do a necropsy in a lab or in the field. Especially in wild animals, you need to be aware of some of the diseases that you can be exposed to and take proper precautions. Number one thing to look for before you even open up the animal is anthrax in a blood smear. Ruminant animals with anthrax will have a large, dark spleen, while carnivores will have a swollen head or neck due to edema in the soft tissues. Blood smears of anthrax contain large bacterial rods (3-10 µm long by 1 µm wide) with blunt ends surrounded by a capsule. The bacteria occur singly or in short chains. Anthrax should not be confused with clostridium. Carcasses with anthrax should not be necropsied. Also be aware of other zoonotic diseases that can be transmitted to humans, livestock, or other wildlife. Carcasses with anthrax or other infectious diseases should be buried (preferably covered with a disinfectant and buried at least 2 m deep to prevent scavenging).
When determining cause of death, some things to consider include: weather conditions, temperature, signs of struggle, pre-mortem versus post-mortem wounds (signs of scavenging), bleeding, bruising, broken boned, missing hair, broken or missing teeth, or other signs of trauma. Look for and preserve any external parasites. Determine the nutritional status of the animal. Note: weight, body measurements, the amount of fat around the heart and kidneys, the muscle mass, the amount of food in the digestive tract, and the condition of the teeth.
Collect samples for further analysis such as histology, microbiology (bacteriology and virology), serology, toxicology, parasitology, and cytology. Begin necropsy. Describe any and all abnormalities, as well as conditions of the organs and body systems. Remove stomach and intestines first, but open them last to prevent contamination of the necropsy site. Look at all the organs, lymph nodes, glands muscles, nerves, bone marrow, and tissues. Also, look at the cranial cavity and the brain.
Remember, work as a team with each department. You may be looking at an animal that had been attacked, poisoned, had cancer, kidney failure, etc, or it could be a combination of multiple things. It may take many specialists to determine the cause of death.
Classwork is an important aspect of career preparation. Learning about things relevant to your career and interests will help make you more effective. However, it is always a good idea to do things outside the classroom and get a more hands on learning experience. That is exactly what happens when Josh Hunter comes to town.
Current Homeland Security officer and former Colby Community College alumni Josh Hunter annually puts on a scenario for students of criminal justice, EMT, and more. These scenarios involve real life emergency situations where the students are in charge of handling whatever might come their way. These scenarios are designed to help students learn by doing, and get out in legitimate opportunities. As a freshman I never got the opportunity to experience these scenarios until this year.
The basis of this year’s scenario was dealing with a meth lab. We had learned about meth users, meth labs, and the dangers of meth in a power point presentation by Josh the day before the scenario. What the scenario involved was a small shack by the Colby fairgrounds with several actors playing the part of meth users or innocent by-standers effected by the meth lab fumes in the area. The criminal justice students playing patrol officers had to answer the calls and go to the scene to find out what was going on. Once they discovered the meth lab and everyone in need of medical attention they called for medical help, which is where EMT students came in to do their part. Also, students training for HASMAT teams were also called in to get to suit up and practice on what it would be like to deal with a real meth lab. The EMT students took the actors back to campus where they were in the care of Colby Community College nursing students. Not only were students at the scene, but also so were their instructors of different fields observing them and making sure not to budge in so they could get a full experience. At it’s peak the scenario had four ambulances, a HASMAT truck, and dozens of participants dealing with the “meth lab” at the fairgrounds. It gave several people involved the opportunity to practice a situation that they could face in any day in their careers.
For me personally I had the opportunity to work on the emergency management side. The Thomas County Emergency Manager and myself watched the whole scene and listened to the events of the scenario through dispatch radio to make sure everything was written down. I really didn’t know much at all about emergency management but it was interesting learning about how the emergency managers office takes care of several different scenarios and situations coordinating with everything from police to EMS.
For any new criminal justice students or really any student who has the opportunity to be involved in this scenario I would certainly recommend it. These scenarios give the unique opportunity to step outside the bounds of the classroom and apply what you’ve been hearing and reading about. A wide range of students can find a way to make these scenarios not only a meaningful but also fun experience. It is important to arm yourself with all the tools you can to make yourself better, and in the words of Josh these scenarios are just another tool you’ll have in your box fort he future.
In criminal justice, there are ways to describe a crime scene. Learning about different things can have an influnence on what you would like to do in life. Throughout the school year we watch movies, talk about crime scenes, and projects. The effective way is doing it yourself as if it would happen in reality. Josh Hunter comes up with the best scenarios to make help you see how its really like on a more hand on basis.
Josh Hunter attended Colby Community College as a student. He is now working for Homeland Security. Every year he comes down and takes us through a scenario. Josh Hunter really makes it real, challenging, and fun. He have several roles that you can play as of what your carrer would be based upon. This really helped me in seeing how things really works.
The scenario this year was about meth and how dangerous meth labs could be. Josh Hunter came to class and had a presentaion of a powerpoint about meth. He showed how meth can be used, the effects of meth, and what can be found in meth/meth labs. The scenario started at the Colby Fairgrounds. The meth lab was a small shack. Josh had different people playing roles such as actors, civilians, and meth heads. The CJ students playing the role as police officers such as myself, got to have a police belt, a gun, and a real police radio. The officers split up into teams and had real police officers as guids. We got the calls from by standers about suspious behavior at the fairgrounds. The officers investigated the scene. When people was hurt we had Colby EMT students that treated the wounded. Any people that was infected by the meth labs had Colby Students as HASMAT people to disinfect people. The whole scenario was great. It was opportunities to get the students to see how a real crime scene can happen. Everybody had they parts and played them wll.
As for myself, playing the role as an police officer was the toughest job. You had to be be quick to respond. You had to know what to do and be smart about your decisions. Had to call in your locations on the radio with your team. We started from the school and got to ride in police cars with the offciers. I had a chance to really act out a role as a police officer as you would see on television.
In my opinion, anyone that will be doing an scenario with Josh Hunter will be excited. This was the best experience i have had . I encourage any CJ students to get involved because Josh Hunter Scenarios is a great opportunity to see what can reall happen. It makes you realize your mistakes and helps you out with what you would like to do as a career in the criminal justice filed. The scenarios can be challenging but most of all can be fun. Once again this was a great experience and look forward to doing it again next year with my fellow CJ Students.
Current Homeland Security officer and former Colby Community College alumni Josh Hunter annually puts on a scenarios for students of criminal justice, EMT, and more. Hunter designs these scenarios in a way that we can work along side with real officers and get hands on with what is happening. This is basically a guide line to what we possibly would be dealing with when we go into the law enforcement. As a Sophomore this was the first time I got involved with this.
The scenario this year was dealing with a meth lab. The day before Josh Hunter talked to us about meth users, meth labs, and the dangers of meth on a power point presentation. The scenario involved a small shack at the fairgrounds in Colby, with many of us acting out as meth users, or innocent by-standers affected by all the commotion with all the officers around. Criminal Justice students played the role of a patrol officer, where they had to answer calls and go to the scene. Once they discovered the shack was a meth lad they called for medical assistance , which was students as well playing a role as the EMT. Students training for the HASMAT team were there as well to practice suiting up and going in a real meth lab and experiencing it. The EMT students took actors of this scenario back to the College where they worked on the affected ones, they made sure not to move and inch so that the trainees could get the full experience from it. At the peak of this scenario, there was 4 Ambulances, a HASMAT team, and many participants dealing with the meth lab incident. It was a good experience for the students to see what could happen with this at any time of there career.
We played the part of a by-stander curious of the small shack, we were told to bug the students training as they could deal with annoying people like us, and they got to know how to deal with it in a cautious way. Although if it wasn't for important stuff outside of scenario, we would of liked to have hung around and take in everything that was going on, but instead we had to leave.
For any new student that would be given the opportunity to play a role in this scenario, I would recommend to go to it, as you will learn a lot of new things even if this is not part of your future career trade.

Life and death. Love and hate. Happiness and despair. Thrill of victory and agony of defeat. George Carlin and Pauly Shore.
In Washington County, we have a thin line of our own - and no idea how to approach it. For some reason, if you attend anything from most local high school events to HCC games to any Hagerstown Suns game, two things are usually the norm. The stands look like Mother Hubbard's cupboard and the loudest audible noise comes from the crickets.
Cheering here is a forgotten art. It used to be sports was a great bonding event with the feel of a spontaneous New Year's Eve party. People screamed, yelled and whooped it up all in the name of fun.
Nowadays, crowds at many local sporting events sit there like they are either waiting for a dentist appointment or have too much cheese in their diets.
Buying a ticket usually allows fans to scream, yell, turn different colors, vent and release hostilities ... and that's just because of the cost to get in. Once inside, it's almost a rite to have those same gyrations, which can not only be used to pump up the home team, but can also become an effective stress release for the tensions of the week.
Mannequins don't ride rollercoasters. Why should they be on display in the stands and bleachers of games?
I'm here to tell you it's all right to get whipped up into a frenzy if it moves you. Get wild. Stomp your feet. Yell. Get vocal.
Let your favorite athletes and your hometown know you care about someone ... something ... anything.
But remember, it's like anything else. It's not always what you say. It's a matter of how you say it.
In the effort of trying to promote sportsmanship - another one of those thin lines - area schools make an announcement before events, telling fans to cheer in a "positive" manner.
There can't be any signs, bells, catcalls or anything that could give the home team an advantage or make an opponent feel belittled. Nothing negative can be said, which takes away some of the creativity of cheering.
Instead of hanging out of the stands and yelling "AH-HA-HA-ha-ha, Quarterback. You can't throw," big plays in football are acknowledged with polite golf claps and, "Thank you very much for making that error in judgment and passing the ball to our player by mistake."
Around here, it sounds like an upper class polo match or yacht race, complete with Bloody Marys and ascots: "Pursue them. Pursue them. Make them relinquish the ball. Rah."
So, in an effort to educate the public - and these self-appointed czars of fan etiquette - on the concept of cheering, here's a game primer.
Correct: The right balance between motivating your team while annoying the opponents, all done in fun and good taste.
If you could answer at least three of these definitions correctly, please voice your pleasure and have a good time at an event near you.
Remember, stadiums and arenas are built on the large side so they have space for all the noise. That explains why libraries and museums are usually so cramped.
Stadiums and museums. Arenas and libraries. Just two more of those thin lines that must be straddled.

It was thrown mercilessly off the back of the Warriors football team, and chased out of town with Boonsboro's first season-opening win since 1998, a 40-13 drubbing of Moorefield on Friday night.
"You're never as good as (the score) might show in a game like this. I'm happy with our defense, but our kicking game needs some work, and I thought our passing game was a little off."
Kyle Kane got Boonsboro started early, rolling 77 yards on the Warriors' second play from scrimmage for a quick 6-0 advantage.
"I had blocking the whole way down the field," said Kane, a junior. "It was just a great team effort. There were always people around me. I don't think I saw the end zone until I got to the 25 (yard line)."
Meanwhile, the defense didn't allow Moorefield (0-3) any running room at all, limiting the Yellow Jackets to minus-12 yards rushing on 32 tries.
After touchdowns by Matt Wetzel and Adam Rippeon made it 21-0, Moorefield scored on freshman Jesse Thompson's 74-yard kickoff return.
Boonsboro responded with its fourth score with 19 seconds left in the half, when quarterback Zach Shoemaker ran it in from 2 yards out to cap a 68-yard march.
The only success the Jackets experienced offensively came in the second half, with quarterback Steven Fulk throwing for 130 yards and a touchdown on Thompson's juggling, one-handed catch from 34 yards out to make it 27-13.
"In the second half, we played a lot of our second group at linebacker, and started to mix it in a little," said Anders. "Our kids were cramping up some, and the situation allowed it."
But Boonsboro wiped out any concerns of a Moorefield comeback with a pair of Jeremiah Mills scores from 1 and 5 yards out to complete the scoring.
"This sets the tone for us," said Anders. It gives us a chance to feel good about where we are, and what we can do."
Tired of inching your way down Hagerstown's Eastern Boulevard, or alarmed at seeing your property taxes rise as assessments soar?
Well, don't blame the developers or Washington County's new residents for the congestion and the higher costs that go along with growth. Blame the law of supply and demand.
It isn't anything new or mysterious. English economist Alfred Marshall described it in 1890 in his book, "Principles of Political Economy." Simply stated, it says that as demand increases, so do prices, as long as the supply of goods is limited.
If raspberry-flavored bottled water becomes the latest fad, the manufacturer can easily speed up production. If, however, you want a fancy car like the 500-horsepower Dodge Viper, you had better be prepared to pay the $80,000 list price, because it is only produced in limited quantities.
So it with houses today. There are more people who want to buy homes than there are houses for sale, especially in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area.
What that will mean to Washington County was described in "Growing Pains," an eight-part Herald-Mail series on growth and related challenges that concluded last Sunday.
An out-of-town client shifted her home search to Hagerstown because she was tired of being outbid for homes in the metro area. She was priced out of the market and so she came west, where there is more inventory at prices that seem, at least to metro-area folks, more reasonable.
She's not the only one. Judging from the surge in local construction, many people have decided that getting a house they can afford makes a longer commute worthwhile.
In this westward movement, Frederick County took the first hit, with its population growing by 30 percent between 1990 and 2000 and another 9.4 percent between 200 and 2003.
As a result, officials there had to plan on building a new school each year for 10 years. The number of sheriff's deputies nearly tripled in the past five years and the housing price squeeze that fueled Frederick's growth began happening all over again, so much so that Frederick County has adopted an ordinance mandating affordable housing in new developments.
In hindsight, James Gugel, the chief comprehensive planner for Frederick County, said the county's zoning codes should have been updated sooner and the county should have added an adequate-public facilities ordinance (APFO) and a workforce housing law.
Washington County has an APFO, but after more than two years trying to revise its zoning laws, local officials came up with an ordinance that they admitted was imperfect when they passed it. The affordable housing issue was only addressed because the Washington County delegation to the Maryland General Assembly mandated a study of it in March, as the price of passing an excise tax on new construction. The commissioners say they were going to do this anyway.
Washington County is also behind in road construction and maintenance as well, with millions needed to upgrade intersections that are clogged now and roads that carry more traffic than they were designed for.
Gary Rohrer, the county's director of public works, said that part of the problems came because instead of rebuilding many roads as growth increased, old farm lanes were just paved over. Rohrer blamed other problems on the lax enforcement of development standards during the 1980s and 1990s.
The Washington County Hospital has only kept its emergency room from being overwhelmed by opening an Urgent Care Center at Robinwood. A second one is planned for Pennsylvania Avenue. A new hospital is planned, but county government finally decided to take the lead only after hospital officials spent two years jousting with the Hagerstown City Council over the project.
There is an ongoing debate over who is responsible for the delay, but while it was going on, building codes changed, according to hospital CEO James Hamill, and plans that have already been drawn will have to be reviewed.
The new hospital is one issue, while getting emergency patients there is quite another. The series points out that the fire/rescue service hasn't expanded with the population and the estimated cost of replacing a 30-year-old emergency communications system has grown from $15 million to $20.8 million.
Then there are the soon-to-be overcrowded schools, which were already facing a backlog of maintenance and reconstruction projects, in part because previous county boards didn't always contribute enough matching cash to get state funding.
Two things are true: The county could not have avoided this, unless all residents had agreed that that was what they wanted to do. But judging by all the grief the County Commissioners heard when they tried to restrict the number of lots that could be developed, there are plenty of people who've been "banking" land, knowing it would go up in value. For them, growth is welcome and, as a result, probably inevitable.
But it was also predictable, and just as President Bush has admitted that Hurricane Katrina wasn't his administration's finest hour, if they are honest, the commissioners will admit that when this wave of growth hit, their "levees" weren't in place.

Regarding this comment (Roger Simmons, TV wants to get close, July 6): "Speaking of pre-emptions, fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (I'm talking about you, Jerry Greene) and other UPN shows, please pay attention. WRBW-Channel 65, Orlando's UPN affiliate, has renewed its deal to carry up to 35 Magic games this season. The bad news is that Magic coverage will bump UPN programming, as it did this past season. But that's good news for basketball fans."
You left the impression that WRBW did not show the UPN network shows. Nothing could be further from the truth. If a UPN network program is pre-empted for a live sports telecast, the network program is rescheduled and shown in its entirety. Usually your paper prints the rescheduled date and time. Viewers can always find the latest details from our Web site.

Using PowerPoint presentations, all speakers can become a good speaker, if one knows how to use the PowerPoint presentation! Presentations are a great means of communicating with a large number of people, however, it is advanced presentation skills that creates interest and excitement in your subject, and thus, trust and enthusiasm in you!
Just because you have a word processor installed in your computer does not make you a writer or author; neither does having PowerPoint in your computer make you a good speaker! PowerPoint is just a tool that is used to help you in your presentation, but in no way makes you a good speaker. It is actually the fear of speaking in front of people that makes people look for ways to overcome it to become a good speaker. And one of the more convenient ways of overcoming this fear is by using PowerPoint. The best way of overcoming your fear of speaking is to be comfortable with your material and message so that it becomes a conversation with the audience.
Use PowerPoint to bring the key points of your presentation to life with its� added visual dimension. However, you have to know the whole matter of your speech well while using the PowerPoint presentation as PowerPoint is there only to help you while you give the speech.Create slides for your PowerPoint presentation while keeping good design principles in mind. Use contrasting colors and big fonts in the presentation fonts, as they are more effective in grasping the audience�s attention. However, avoid using the PowerPoint as a teleprompter as this is one of the things that audiences hate. It is of no use having all your text on the slide, and then just going on reading each slide to the audience. Use the PowerPoint slide just to help you along in the presentation by having only the main points for the presentation on the slides.
When using PowerPoint presentations, it is very important that you prepare yourself to collaborate your speaking and the use of the computer to give the PowerPoint presentation. The best way of doing this is to practice your presentation on a colleague or friend. So with practice, you find that giving your presentation with a PowerPoint presentation increases your prowess as a good speaker. . If you can�t do both these jobs together, it would be better to get someone to help you with the controlling of the computer, so that you can give a good speech using the PowerPoint slides. However, it is important that you test the equipment before the presentation, as sometimes the PowerPoint program may seem as though they are out to get you when it is spoilt; so prove that you are in charge, and not them by checking on the equipment before the speech!
Using a PowerPoint presentation gives you visual aids to be used while giving your speech. Visuals give a big picture quickly, and also graphics, pictures, and bar charts that you can used during your speech to enhance the meaning of your presentation. However, it is better to keep your PowerPoint slides simple with not much matter on it, as otherwise, it may seem that you are showing your audience your speaker notes! Using the PowerPoint as a teleprompter as this is one of the things that audiences hate. It is of no use having all your text on the slide, and then going on reading each slide to the audience. Use the PowerPoint slide just to help you along in the presentation by having only the main points for the presentation on the slides.
So it can be said that PowerPoint is no magical software that makes you a good speaker. It is just a tool that can help you in your presentation. It is actually you yourself who becomes a good speaker using your own speech techniques, with the help of a PowerPoint presentation!

Abstract Reviews the book, Psychologist at Large: An Autobiography and Selected Essays of a Distinguished Psychologist by Edwin G. Boring (see record 1961-35015-000). This book contains much history and much psychology. It also contains other things. Only a few leaders, relatively speaking, will have had a chance to sample the author's style so widely as they can in this book. No one can doubt that he is one of the most effective users of the English language in our profession. Certainly it is a readable and intensely interesting account of a man. A reader who feels that he knows something of the author, but misses in the autobiography some things he considers important, finds himself at a loss. Surely no facts belong in the account unless they are part of author's own view of himself, for that would make them biography rather than autobiography.

Abstract Reviews the books, Treatment of Psychiatric Outpatients by Ronald R. Koegler and Norman Q. Brill (see record 1967-07408-000); and Emergency Psychiatry and Brief Therapy by George J. Wayne and Ronald R. Koegler (Eds."(1966). Two-thirds of the pages in this book are devoted to a report of a study carried out at the Neuropsychiatric Institute Outpatient Clinic at UCLA. The study evaluated the effects of Compazihe, Miltown, and phenobarbital, as well as placebos, psychotherapy, and no treatment, on Caucasian female patients with personality disorders, psychoneuroses, and other conditions which would ordinarily have been treated by psychotherapy if there had been no limitations on the clinic staff or facilities. The general theme suggested in the title (i.e., treatment of psychiatric outpatients) is not really so general. Furthermore, when the authors in the last one-third of the book do talk in general terms about the outpatient treatment of a variety of diagnostic groups their discussion becomes doctrinaire and arbitrary.

" Whether we believe in Astrology or not but at some point in our life when we start suffering from some big disappointments one after another at a high frequency for a long interval of time we start believing that there exist something very powerful in our life which is directing our life and which has the power to change the course of our life what we call-Destiny and Astrology is nothing else but an attempt to estimate the destiny of a person so as to provide him or her some important guidelines. "........ Ashish Vyas
The first thing that the would-be astrologer should do is discard the idea that all forms of astrology is superstition mingled with the paranormal which can only be understood by mystics steeped in occult lore. Today, some astrology is presented this way, but this is not true "traditional astrology". Did you know that Astrology was considered science in man's early history? And some still do,with good reason (you will find out why later). Also until just a short time ago it was considered the same as astronomy, an extension of it if you will, and uses the same tables as do the astronomer and the navigator.
Hi everyone welcome to my sports page. There isn't much displayed on here just links to my faveorite sports Websites. I like Football, Basketball, and Baseball mainly. I do however like Hockey as well.
I think I bake cookies every month, if not every couple of weeks. Especially when it's cold or raining, but then again...I also love to open the windows and bake when the sunlight is pouring in too, so I suppose I bake as often as I can. Anyone else guilty of this?! The only *dilemma* is that my kids also LOVE to bake, and the thing is, they think they're really helping. And they're not. I feel like my life is a constant, "Reese, not yet," or, "Pierson, just be patient," while I juggle reading instructions, measuring ingredients, and helping them not dump flour and sugar all over the floor. But it's cute. And these memories are priceless, so lo and behold, we bake together often.
Here's the recipe for my absolute favorite oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, adapted from Liv for Cake's blog:
1 c unsalted butter at room temp [mine's typically colder than room temp but I warm it up a few seconds in the microwave and they turn out delish nonetheless]
-In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat butter and sugars on med-high until pale and fluffy (approx. 3 minutes).
-Add eggs one at a time, fully incorporating after each addition, and beat on high for 1 minute. -Add vanilla.
I could eat these for breakfast, lunch, AND dinner. And honestly, I had two for my breakfast this morning. Make them, share how they turned out, and have fun baking!!
PS: I never put raisins in these. I love the texture from the oats, but I don't particularly care for an oatmeal RAISIN cookies, so I just use a ton of chocolate chips instead ;)
In food, motherhood Tags pierson and reese, cookies, on the table, baking, in the kitchen, oatmeal, oatmeal chocolate chip, kitchen aid, toddlers, childhood, parenting, homemade, bake
Public education is under attack in Kentucky. I support and will work for universal pre-K in Kentucky.
I stand with workers, & will work to protect organized labor by repealing so-called “right-to-work” laws
I will fight for a statewide fairness law, public financing of elections and full transparency of government.
See if you live in District 33 and can help send me to Frankfort in November by voting Ashley May Nash (D) in May!
If you’re interested in helping me campaign for Kentucky House District 33, there are so many ways that you can get involved in local politics and help!
Use the form to the left to sign up for my email list and stay up-to-date on my campaign, plus learn about the many ways you can help me through volunteering.

The Police have arrested four suspects for assaulting a group of dutch tourists near Surf Bar, Mirissa, last Sunday, the Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority (SLTDA) said.
The Weligama Police and the Tourist Police Division are currently conducting investigations into the incident.
Some tourists including a Dutch male and two other women tourists were reported to have been brutally assaulted in Mirissa on Sunday morning when they resisted attempts to sexually assault the women.
According to eyewitnesses and several media reports, the group had been enjoying dinner and drinks at the Surf Bar and Restaurant on Saturday night when a group, including some waiters at the restaurant had attempted to sexually harass the women.
Speaking to us, a spokesman from the Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority Police patrols have been intensified in Mirissa to ensure safety of tourists visiting the area.
Meanwhile, a separate investigation is underway by the Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority into the restaurant which is at the centre of the controversy.
Initial investigations have revealed that the restaurant has not obtained license from the Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority to run a tourism related business.

Episode 39 | Corey Smale | Culinary Marketer & Co-Founder of Good Fortune | Live from The Gramophone in St. Louis, MO – Pubcast Worldwide
Episode 39 | Corey Smale | Culinary Marketer & Co-Founder of Good Fortune | Live from The Gramophone in St. Louis, MO
The restaurant industry is all about creating an unforgettable experience for the people around you. No one knows this better than Corey Smale, a successful entrepreneur and restaurant marketer out of St. Louis, Missouri.
Smale’s latest project – the “Chinese American-ese” restaurant Good Fortune – is his finest work to date, and he’ll be the first to tell you that the dream team he’s assembled deserves all the credit. Corey got his start with the famed St. Louis donut shop Strange Donuts, where Corey made a name for himself as a culinary brand-builder. With his sights shifted to Good Fortune, his new restaurant is off to a hot start, and was listed in Departures Magazine as one of the 18 Most Anticipated Restaurants in 2018.
Corey and I met up at The Gramophone in St. Louis’ Grove neighborhood to discuss the events leading up to the opening of Good Fortune, explore his creative career as a restaurant marketer, and talk about the lessons he’s learned in building the best teams along the way.
The Gramophone is a local STL bar with a good beer selection that’s well-known for its sandwiches (served at almost all hours or the day). Arcade games and frequent DJs round out the ambiance here at this late-night staple in The Grove.
Corey kicks off the conversation by introducing his new restaurant Good Fortune, while providing some back-story on his first food project, Strange Donuts.
“I like to think of myself as the conductor, and without a full orchestra of people, I’m just a guy that looks goofy waving my arms.” –Corey Smale
Cory Miller is the master photographer behind a lot of Good Fortune’s marketing (and here on this show notes page). You can check out his work on Instagram.
We kick off Round 2 by talking about some of the changing stigmas around drinking in the restaurant industry.
Shout outs to Corey’s business partners – including Chef Ryan McDonald and a couple St. Louis area restaurants like Lion’s Choice and Byrd & Barrel.
Corey shares some of his favorite food cities across the U.S., including New Orleans (Peche), LA (Tony’s Tacos), Austin, Nashville, and Denver (home of Hop Alley, an inspiration for Good Fortune).
Black Thorn Pub – You’ll easily spend 3 hours in this Tower Grove South pizza pub serving Chicago-style pizza
Vicia – A vegetable-forward restaurant that’s been receiving national press, and is a favorite of Corey’s for lunch
Lion’s Choice – A St. Louis roast beef fast food chain/legend. They pay their employees well and make excellent roast beef sandwiches. This place is long overdue for a shout-out. Eat here!
It’s best to look up Corey these days via Good Fortune, which can be found on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook (all using the handle @goodfortunestl), and of course at their website GoodFortuneSTL.com.
Yeah, I know we didn’t record the episode here, but Corey just spend 2 f*cking years opening this place, so we’re going to give it another shout-out! Good Fortune is located at 1641D Tower Grove Ave, St. Louis, MO 63110. Hours are 11am to 10pm Tuesday through Saturday, 5pm to 10pm Sundays, and closed on Mondays.
Alright, this is where we recorded the episode! The Gramophone is located at 4243 Manchester Ave, St. Louis, MO 63110. Bar hours are 11am to 3am Tuesday through Sunday, closed Mondays.

The afternoon was fine, and nothing interrupted my view of the great amphitheatre about me. The cliffs and ridges of K2 rose out of the glacier in one stupendous sweep to the summit of the mountain, 12,000 feet above. The sight was beyond my comprehension, and I sat gazing at it, with a kind of timid fascination … I saw ice avalanches, weighing perhaps hundreds of tons, break off from a hanging glacier, nearly two miles above my head; the ice was ground to a fine powder and drifted away in the breeze long before it reached the foot of the precipice, nor did any sound reach my ears … Sitting alone gazing at the cirque forming the head of the K2 glacier was an experience I shall not forget; no mountain scene has impressed me more deeply.
MY FIRST DIRECT EXPERIENCE with K2 was in 1986 when I was invited by Lance Owens to participate in an American expedition to the north ridge from the Chinese side. Although the north ridge had been climbed first by the Japanese in 1982 and by an Italian expedition the next year, the route still impressed me as one of the most striking lines on the mountain.
In 1986 we employed a traditional expedition style by fixing ropes and establishing camps to 7800 meters. George Lowe, Alex Lowe and I reached our high camp on August 3. That night George developed high altitude pulmonary edema, probably from his extreme efforts breaking trail, fixing rope, and carrying loads for the team. George refused assistance and descended alone that night to give Alex and me a chance to reach the summit the following day. On August 4, Alex and I attempted to get to the summit but turned around at 8100 meters because of an approaching storm and slow progress in bad snow conditions. David Cheesmond, Catherine Freer and I made another summit attempt in mid-August after the other expedition members had left. We were turned around at 7500 meters when a new storm engulfed the mountain. Not until we returned to Kashgar did we learn of the tragic events that had occurred on K2 that season from the Pakistan side.
The following year, in 1987, I returned to K2 from the Pakistan side. Together, Greg Child, Phil Ershler and I made several alpine-style attempts to climb the south face. By using lightweight tactics we were able to move very quickly and could take advantage of small windows of good weather. In spite of the newly acquired speed and efficiency, we had no chance to climb K2 that year. We returned home after almost 50 days at or above Base Camp during which there had been not more than 18 hours of continuous good weather.
During the 1987 expedition we received word that David Cheesmond and Catherine Freer had disappeared while attempting the second ascent of the Hummingbird Ridge on Mount Logan. I had become very close friends with David and Catherine when we attempted K2 the previous year. Learning of the tragedy while I was on the same mountain we had tried so hard to climb helped me to accept the loss. With the repeated attempts to climb K2 in 1986 and 1987, the mountain had assumed a special significance for me which David and Catherine were now part of.
While we were flying back from the 1987 trip it wasn’t too difficult to convince Greg Child and Phil Ershler that a return to the north ridge of K2 should be considered. I pursued the permit shortly after we arrived home and by early summer 1988, the Chinese had agreed to grant us permission for the route in 1990. I was disappointed to learn that both George Lowe and Alex Lowe would not be able to join us because of job commitments. To complete the climbing team, Greg Child invited Greg Mortimer of Sydney, Australia. Although I had never met him, I knew him by reputation from his ascent of a new route on the north side of Everest in 1984 with a small team and without using oxygen. Three more Australians eventually joined the group including Margaret Werner, Peter Kuenstler, the expedition doctor, and Lyle Closs.
On the north side of K2, all the expedition loads are carried to Base Camp on camels. Because the camels are not able to walk on the ice, they can only carry loads to the snout of the North K2 Glacier. The snout of the glacier is about 12 miles from where Base Camp would be if porters could be used. As we were to learn later, if the water levels are too high in the river coming from the North K2 Glacier, then the camel drivers will not go past Sughet Jangal, which is nearly 16 miles from K2. To help us carry the loads from wherever the camels stopped to the base of the mountain, we employed four Pakistanis. Two of the Pakistani members, Ghulam Rasool and Fida Hussein, had cooked for us on K2 in 1987 and had worked for Greg Child on his Nameless Tower Expedition in 1989. In addition to Rasool and Fida, Nazir Sabir arranged for us to employ two Hunza men, Anwar and Sarwar Khan.
The Australian contingent was already ahead of us by several days when we arrived in Beijing just after midnight on June 12. Because we were concerned about rising water levels in the Shaksgam River on the approach to K2, we tried to keep moving across China as quickly as possible. We were able to leave for Urumchi that night. At Urumchi, we met our liaison officer, Zhou Xing Lu.
The next day we flew to Kashgar where we met up with the expedition members from Australia and our interpreter, Ma Xun Kui. With most of our local food and equipment already purchased by the Australians, we drove to Yecheng and then to the roadhead at Mazar Dala where we arrived on June 18. At the roadhead we helped the six camel drivers divide our supplies into loads for the 30 camels we had previously ordered. Since the loads averaged a little more than the allowable 80 kilograms, we agreed to pay extra wages by allowing the drivers to document the use of two more camels than we actually had. The drivers could then collect additional funds from the local mountaineering association for carrying the extra weight.
The first three days of the walk to Base Camp were uneventful, with the exception of having to remove an abscessed molar from Sarwar’s mouth. The final three days of the approach took us down the Shaksgam River, which meanders through a half-mile-wide gravel flood plain in a valley flanked by steep rock walls. A crossing of the river is required each time a channel crosses the valley width and runs against a cliff at each side. Several crossings each day are necessary because the channels snake from one side of the valley to the other at frequent intervals. In early spring before the summer snowmelt begins, water levels in the river are very low. But warmer temperatures in the late spring and early summer cause increasingly larger volumes of snowmelt so that by July the river is in flood stage and becomes impossible to cross. Since our approach was in late June, I was quite nervous about what we would find when we reached the Shaksgam. The Chinese had already warned us that the weather had been quite hot and the rivers could be high. We soon discovered their predictions were well founded.
On June 22 we crossed the Aghil Pass and descended to the Shaksgam. The river was deeper than in 1986. Greg Child and I slid down a gully through a wall of morainal debris that lined the canyon and walked up to the waters’ edge. I threw large stones into the rapid current and listened in vain for the quick thud that would indicate a shallow bottom. I waited in quiet despair as the remainder of the expedition arrived. I seriously believed that the expedition might be turned around before ever even seeing the mountain.
Mr. Zhou was not quite so discouraged, and he led us downstream to where the river broke up into a number of channels. Leading the first camel train, Mr. Zhou found a way across. The rest of us followed. The water was swift and above our waists in places. To stay upright we linked arms in groups of three or four and crossed each channel diagonally so the current could help move us along. The four Pakistanis were quite accustomed to these difficult crossings, and they were invaluable both in choosing places to cross and in teaching us the techniques required to get across safely.
For the next two days we lived in constant anxiety that we would come to some channel that we could not cross and the camel drivers would refuse to continue. On June 24, we rode on the camels across the Shaksgam for the last time. We took a shortcut over the end of a ridge that gave us our first view of K2 and of the normal Base Camp at Sughet Jangal. We felt confident we had overcome the most significant obstacles on our approach until we arrived at the river that emerges from the North K2 Glacier. This crossing was a mere boulder hop in 1986, but this year we were dismayed to find that it would be our worst crossing yet. The river was not wide, but it was steeper and the current was swifter than anything we experienced on the Shaksgam. We could hear the muffled sound of large underwater boulders crashing their way downstream. It would be impossible to wade this channel, so each of us was assigned a precarious perch atop a load strapped to the back of a camel. All I could do was to grip the ropes holding the load as the camel lurched through water up to its belly. I felt helpless. Our lives were completely dependent upon the skill and strength of the animal beneath us and the drivers’ ability to lead them.
One of the younger drivers, Rasool, Greg Child and I rode on the first camel train to go across. We watched in horror when halfway into the channel the camel behind me with Rasool aboard lost its footing and was swept away. Both Greg’s and my camel’s lead ropes became severed from the rest of the train. We had to drive the animals to the other side by reaching back and hitting them on the rear. I reached the opposite shore just behind the camel driver. The driver and I ran downstream to help Rasool who was fortunate to have stopped on some rocks near the bank. Rasool was standing in the current holding the camel’s head out of the water so it wouldn’t drown. The driver and Rasool cut the ropes holding the load onto the camel and I threw the luggage onto the bank. After being relieved of its load, the camel was able to get up and walk to shore.
After witnessing this near disaster, the remaining camel drivers refused to come across. Since peak flows in the river come late in the afternoon, the drivers decided to try again early the next morning when water levels might be lower. We set up a rope crossing farther downstream for the team members, and several more made it across before the river level rose. For those of us that made it across that day Anwar was able to articulate our feelings in a few simple words, “Today Rasool’s luck number.”
The next morning the remaining camels made the dangerous crossing through the still swollen river without incident. Having arrived safely at Sughet Jangal was not the end of our problems with camel loads. The expedition logistics depended upon the camels carrying loads to our Base Camp at the snout of the North K2 Glacier. The normal route to our Base Camp from Sughet Jangal is to walk up the river we had just crossed. Because of the deep water, the camel drivers refused to take their animals that way. Based on my previous experience with the area in 1986, I thought there might be a way for the camels to carry loads up the hill behind Sughet Jangal and then down the other side to the glacier. Late that day, Greg Mortimer and I were able to make an incomplete reconnaissance up the hill. This trip led us to believe the route could get us close if not all the way to the glacier.
We managed to convince the camel drivers to wait an extra day at Sughet Jangal before carrying loads over the hill towards our Base Camp near the glacier. With a sense of urgency Lyle Closs and I left that morning with pick and shovel to build a trail while we finished exploring the route. We didn’t have the time to finish our reconnaissance prior to building the trail. The camel drivers were anxious to leave before the rising floodwaters blocked their exit. They would carry for us the next day or not at all.
We were lucky to find a route safe enough for the camels that could get us within a mile of our Base Camp. We arrived back at Sughet Jangal late that night where the rest of the team had sorted and repacked the loads to be carried to Base Camp. Most of the team left early the next morning to finish building the last section of trail before the camels arrived. By the end of the day all the camel loads arrived at the designated dump and we carried enough gear down a steep lateral moraine to establish Base Camp on June 26 at the snout of the North K2 Glacier.
By June 29, we had moved all our gear from the camel dump to Base Camp and we began to carry loads up the glacier towards Advanced Base Camp (ABC) at 4900 meters. By July 3, we had carried up enough supplies to occupy ABC. Over the next several weeks the four Pakistanis finished the remaining load carrying on the glacier. Near our ABC at the head of the glacier we met a Japanese expedition attempting a new route on the north face to the right of our route on the north ridge. They had arrived 44 days before at Sughet Jangal and had already established two glacier camps plus their Camp II at 6700 meters.
Late that first night we were awakened by a large avalanche that fell from the north face. The next morning we learned that the Japanese Advanced Base Camp had been destroyed by the slide. Fortunately no one was killed, but two Sherpas were seriously injured. Peter assisted the Japanese doctor in treating the injured, and he helped evacuate the most severely injured man to Sughet Jangal. On the north side of K2 an injured climber cannot be evacuated after the river floods. Fortunately, the injured men were able to recover during their long convalescence without the need for elaborate medical treatment. An expedition to this area must be completely self sufficient because rescues, evacuations, and medical assistance from the Chinese are not available.
Our plan was to fix rope up to our Camp II at 6700 meters. From there we would climb without fixed ropes or camps. Rope was fixed to Camp I at 5800 meters by July 5 and the camp was occupied on July 8. Stormy weather kept us at ABC and prevented us from making quick progress towards Camp II. But on July 24 we finished fixing rope and occupied Camp II. After completing acclimatization we would be ready to begin our summit attempts.
Our acclimatization plan included two trips high on the mountain. On our first trip we spent July 25, 26, and 27 at Camp II, and we explored the route to 7200 meters. On the second trip we spent one more night at Camp II and explored the route to the site of our bivouac Camp III at 7600 meters. We completed the second trip and our acclimatization program by August 3. During our explorations above Camp II we discovered that much of the rope that was fixed in 1986 was still usable by tying knots around frayed sections and splicing in a few bits of new rope where necessary. Although we had not planned to fix rope above Camp II, we did use the existing rope between Camps II and III.
After another period of stormy weather, both Gregs, Phil and I began our first summit attempt on August 9. Now that we were acclimatized, we would go directly from ABC to Camp II the first day. This plan would allow us to summit on the fourth day. As we would discover later, this could make the difference between success and failure since we rarely experienced good weather exceeding four days. On August 10, the weather was unsettled, so we spent another night at Camp II. We passed the day on August 11 wading in deep snow to Camp III. I slept poorly that night because of a sore throat and bad coughing. Greg Mortimer had been very strong, breaking most of the trail to Camp III, but he felt sick the next morning. He accompanied us toward Camp IV, but during the day he moved quite slowly and fell behind.
Two Japanese climbers had reached the summit on August 9. With our permission they had crossed onto our route on the north ridge at about 7700 meters and had fixed rope to approximately 8100 meters. On our attempt, we used the Japanese rope that was left in place. By six P.M. Beijing time, Greg Child and I reached 7800 meters. We planned to climb another 200 meters that day to our Camp IV bivouac, but high winds and an approaching storm forced us to retreat. We spent another night at Camp III before descending the next day on August 13 to ABC.
After only two stormy days the weather dawned clear. Although this didn’t give us much rest from our previous summit bid, we knew we must take advantage of our opportunities as they came. The four of us waited for one day of sunny weather so that the new snow on the slopes to Camp II would slide off or consolidate. On August 17, we once again made the trip to Camp II, this time with Anwar and Sarwar helping to break trail. Because of a misallocation of personnel, Anwar and Sarwar had not yet been above ABC at 4900 meters and were not acclimatized. In spite of this they were eager to help us as best as they could. Anwar had to turn around at 6400 meters because of a headache. Sarwar continued almost to Camp II before I sent him back down to accompany Anwar to ABC. Before heading down he apologized for not being able to go above Camp II because he had to go down to help Anwar. He clasped both my hands and said, “But, sir, I want to go higher. I’m very sorry, sir. Insh’Allah you will reach the summit. It will be a very happy day if you make the summit.” I was sad to see him disappear down the ropes. He deserved more, given the work he had done to help us.
On August 18, we climbed to Camp III with relatively good snow conditions. On the radio, Rasool gave us a favorable weather forecast from Radio Skardu and an enthusiastic cheer concerning our progress. We donned our down suits the next day as we headed for Camp IV. The ridge had been almost completely blasted free of snow by the wind and we had to be very careful not to knock loose rocks on each other. At 7800 meters we crossed the ridge where previous expeditions had placed their high camp. We continued with a traverse left onto the glacier through deep snow. By late that evening we arrived at 8000 meters where the Japanese had left a tent when they went to the summit eleven days earlier. Rather than dig a new platform, we all piled into the old tent after digging it out. The tent was too small for the four of us. Snow was blowing in the tunnel door, but closing it cut off our already meager air supply. Dry cracked throats, coughing, hacking, panting for air and wet cramped conditions all prevented us from getting adequate sleep for the task that lay ahead tomorrow.
On August 20 we began our preparations several hours before dawn. At eleven A.M. Beijing time, all four of us left the tent and traversed straight left across the top of the glacier to where we crossed the bergschrund into the summit couloir. This traverse, as well as the bergschrund crossing, was still fixed with Japanese rope. A few hundred feet above the bergschrund the fixed rope ended and we proceeded unroped up the 45° to 50° neve. We climbed to where there was a branch in the snow couloir that angled left to the summit ridge. We followed the left fork and arrived on the summit ridge at the edge of the north face at around six P.M. Beijing time. High cirrus clouds had been building all day and from our new vantage point we could see the oncoming storm. I noticed that Phil was not behind us and the two Gregs said that he had turned around. I learned later that Phil had decided to descend at 8400 meters because he felt the personal risks were too great and the hour was too late to reach the summit and descend before dark.
We reached the top of the north face by seven P.M. and were disappointed to see that we still needed to gain several hundred more feet before we reached the top. Greg Child expressed some doubts about reaching the summit and getting back down before dark. I cached my second ice tool and fanny pack there and told him I would give myself another hour before turning around. I pushed myself to move as quickly as possible along the final part of the summit ridge so that I would reach the top within my allotted period. At 7:56 I walked from the last false summit to where I could see no higher ground.
Standing on the summit of K2 was not the euphoric experience that I had dreamed it would be. I felt a dull sense of accomplishment that was mostly overshadowed by the relief of not having to go any further.
Hypoxia took the edge off everything as if a translucent screen had been pulled over my senses. The storm moving in from the southwest had already obscured the summits of all the big mountains in Pakistan. I felt pressed for time since there were only two-and-a-half hours of daylight remaining and a long steep descent to our high camp was still ahead of me. I spent only a few minutes there alone before beginning the descent. After three K2 expeditions which consumed almost a year of my life, having climbed K2 didn’t seem very important to me. All I could think about was getting down.
The descent was easy at first. I met Greg Child only a few minutes from the top. My first impulse was to go back up with him to verify that I had really been to the summit. I was afraid he would tell me later the true summit was just beyond where I had been. In the interest of self-preservation I resisted this urge and when I asked him what he was going to do he mumbled he would go to the top and wait there for Greg Mortimer. He suggested they might have to bivuoac on the way down. Later I passed Greg Mortimer who was about one half hour from the summit.
I collected my ice tool and fanny pack where I had left them on the way up. As I reached into my fanny pack to get my headlamp for the descent, I noticed I had forgotten to remove two small palm crosses I had intended to take to the summit. Lance Owens, the leader of our 1986 trip, had given these to me before I had left the United States with a request that I leave them at a suitable spot on the mountain in memory of David and Catherine. I released the two small objectsfrom my bag and watched them blow away into Pakistan. I paused a few moments thinking I had shared something great with them today, and then resumed my rush downward.
From the ridge crest I traversed over to where I could begin to back down the main summit couloir. Backing down the first three-quarters of the face went quickly, but the last several hundred feet demanded the utmost concentration given the steep terrain and my state of hypoxia and exhaustion. I arrived back at our high camp an hour after dark. Phil was already there melting snow. I expressed my concern about the two Gregs and wondered if they could survive a bivouac if this storm broke tonight. After a warm drink I dozed off.
About an hour after I arrived at camp the two Gregs appeared out of the dark. They had somehow found their way back using Greg Child’s headlamp. Our second night at Camp IV was no better than the first, given our cramped conditions. During the night the storm had broken and by morning there was almost a foot of new snow. After melting enough snow to allow each of us a small drink we ran out of fuel.
The descent to Camp II that day was almost as difficult as the summit day given the bad conditions and lack of water. At Camp II there was plenty of food and fuel and we sufficiently rehydrated ourselves to continue the descent on August 22.
We dropped out of the storm clouds just above Camp I, and for the first time since leaving the summit I could see the glacier below. Greg Mortimer and I arrived at the abandoned Camp I site and waited for the others. As we left the camp, I spotted a line of figures advancing up the glacier below. For the past several days I had been completely preoccupied with our ascent and safe descent of K2. The figures on the glacier below brought me back to the living world I had lost touch with. I suddenly realized the significance of what we had accomplished. I paused for a minute while the stress of the previous days’ events evaporated and my anxiety was replaced by an overwhelming surge of emotion. It was a very happy moment for me. I stood holding onto the fixed rope and wept.
Throughout the ensuing days of load carrying down the glacier and the walk out, I entertained doubts about having been at the actual summit. Had I missed some slightly higher point further along the ridge? For some reason my doubts were not dispelled by the two Gregs who verified my description of the summit area.
K2 cannot be seen from the Aghil Pass since the view to the southwest is blocked by intervening ridges. From high on K2 I noticed that it might be possible to obtain a view of the mountain from near the pass by climbing partway up several peaks to the east. Arriving at the Aghil Pass on the way out, I felt a need to climb up the slopes east of the pass and search the horizon for a final view of K2. After climbing several hundred feet, I became increasingly excited as the north sides of first the Gasherbrum group and then K2 gradually came into view. As I gained elevation, more and more of K2 became visible and I continued up as far as I could go before the climbing became technical. From my vantage point I could see the north sides of all the major peaks in the Karakoram. Through my telephoto lens I could see all the features of the ridge on K2 where we had walked to the summit. My perspective from a distance confirmed what I was unable to believe from having been there. We had climbed K2.
Ascent: K2, 8611 meters, 28,250 feet, via the north ridge; summit reached on August 20, 1990 (Greg Child, Greg Mortimer, Steve Swenson). Phil Ershler reached 8500 meters.

136 SCOOP Commercial Building & Design PEARL RIVER TOWER, CHINA Kym MacCormac, MacCormac Architects We have seen building designs shaped to suit the surrounding natural landscape, and building designs based on sustainability. The remarkable elements of the Pearl River Tower by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill (SOM) combine both. Incorporating the latest green technology and engineering advancements, the 213,700sqm Pearl River Tower is one of the world’s most energy- efficient skyscrapers. It was developed through an understanding of solar and wind patterns around the site, taking serious advantage of a commodity we have by the truckload in WA – wind. The sculpted body of the south facing 309m-tall tower has been shaped to capitalise on the elements by facing the wind and directing it to a pair of openings at its mechanical floors. Travelling winds then push turbines that generate energy for the building. Photovoltaic panels also ensure heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems remain powered, while rotating, motorised louvres on the facade provide fresh-air ventilation and keep the building cool. Solar panels, a double-skin curtain wall, a chilled ceiling system, under-floor ventilation, and daylight harvesting are a number of additional sustainable elements that warrant the recognition this building deserves for sustainability. Perth is well known as a centre for yachting for very good reason – wind is a natural resource and is available in large amounts for most of the year. With our winter storms and the Fremantle Doctor in the summer afternoons, Perth is in a prime position to benefit from sustainable building elements similar to Pearl River Tower. The city grid is inclined by about 15 degrees off north toward the east, so it would only require a slight deviation from the side boundaries for the southern face of any building to face a sculptured opening into the direction of the dominant wind. This configuration makes a lot of sense if the acoustic concerns can be addressed, which has to be easier to achieve where the turbines are in an enclosed space rather than configured as exposed windmills.

There are unbelievable fields of lifted graphic on the Singapore servers. And knowing that none is original, the endless variety loses its calculus: there is plainly an end to stolen goods. Enzo has considered this and other thefts, and weighed their payoff per down payment. The larger, gun-toting contrivances are a contradiction to Enzo. It seems to Enzo that a robbery that really hauled big would be easier on his mica-like soul than would, say, a connive, or a fraud.
This is how romance grows between Enzo’s toes: an XTC song, teasing with history but denying the real background. Oh, another smell of past crash pads. Enzo uses Google to fetch information about old girlfriends from data bases that don’t exist, or were closed to memory by a freak death. Homer is there in Google, but not Enzo, or his old friends. And standing on another summer corner with twenty-five others in the misting diesel fuel, Enzo knows that you really cannot be alone in a crowd.
Enzo looks at all of them and recognizes none. No help that they are all strangers, he is not interested in their existential status. They are in the full regalia of hot weather displays today, and Enzo loosens his tie. This is risky – Enzo has also rolled up the sleeves of his yellow shirt. He is not wearing the jacket for this green summer suit, and he would feel half dressed at an opening if one came up suddenly.
He is thinking about how there are some people from his personal mythology that may be real. That he may contact them if he could find them. That he may be amplified, in a Frippertronic way, if he could find those living ripples in the urbi et orbi. And then a man passes, much shorter than Enzo, in a light green summer suit, with the jacket on, in a yellow dress shirt, in ox blood wing tips; this man passes walking faster than Enzo would in this humidity. A dream image, a double, a thief of Enzo.
It is as though he had been grabbed, as though Giant Smelly Man had sat next to him on the R train. Worse than this, worse than dropping fifteen bucks, worse than losing the whole wallet. Enzo is slammed back into his body, into the pinched toes and blood pressure which he swears he can feel. In all the shameful plotting to get more stuff, he had never thought he could rob his own soul. As a rule, Enzo puts himself first among the base, a weird megalomania without the satisfaction of supremacy, and now there is evidence of power.
And this is how the briar grows among the rose bushes; how Enzo has practiced bonsai in his dream life. Alone, he doesn’t know if he is awake or asleep, and walks sometimes somnolently through his work days, and that habit has paid off as a dream image of Enzo walking past. Suspiciously, he looks back to see if there are shiny chips falling away as his soul disintegrates. Enzo is a little freer today, hemmed in on all sides by over-heated New Yorkers, twisted permanently into the romance he imagines from his youth, hauled away by a ghost. Enzo feels his feet and legs walking in the blue sky.

Neal’s fedora. Peter’s FBI wallet. The Mosconi Codex. The Hope Diamond. The items are part of White Collar’s amazing history, keys to each case and mystery that Peter, Neal, and Mozzie solved in the last six years. These items (or their prop replicas) and hundreds of others are now available in an online auction.
Six auction days remain, over the next three weekends: Nov. 29-30, Dec. 6-7, and Dec. 13-14. The auction is being held by J. Sugarman with online bidding through Proxibid.
Over 2,000 items are being auctioned off, including White Collar scripts and most of the White Collar wardrobe (like Matt Bomer’s suits and Hilarie Burton’s dresses). Some notable props include Neal’s tracking anklet, case files, and even Kate’s wine bottle, first seen in the pilot. While originally signaling the end of Kate and Neal’s relationship, it turned out to be a key in finding Kate’s true whereabouts.

Late last week, I gave you a survey of the actions being taken at the largest audit firms to address what they see as a downturn in their business and a “necessary” cutback in staffing and expenses needed to realign their workforce with current economic conditions.
Readers of this blog know that I have pushed back hard when journalists and commenters swallow whole the whale of a bull-oney sandwich the firms feed them about their “deteriorating financial condition”.
…The point of the firms is to make the partners money. Making less than previous years would be considered “losing money”.
If we lose clients or clients cut budgets, then there is an excess of supply. Partners are going to make a lot less money this year and some employees are losing their jobs to make up the difference.
I still fail to see why Big4 should retain more staff than they have project time to book. So far the people I have seen let go were the bottom performers at their level. That’s what happens in a down economy.
It’s a partnership, guy. Who in the world died and told you that constant growth was a given? Making less money than prior year in a partnership or anywhere else is not “losing money”. The problem is the skewed way you look at “profitability” compared to the rest of the world and your clients. And you’re the ones we’re counting on to be the watchdogs, the guardians of the public shareholders?
The “point of the public accounting firm is to make the partners money” ? You’ve lost it. The purpose of the audit practice in a public accounting firm is to serve the public trust. That’s why you get to make any money at all. If you stop doing that, you don’t deserve squat.
What can the audit firms do to improve scrutiny of public companies – the ones governments have invested so much taxpayer money in – now when we need it the most? Can it be done:
Without endangering quality and integrity in the work they’ve been enfranchised to do under the exclusive licensing of various federal governments and public/private bodies such as exchanges?
Without completely abdicating responsibility to their true client – the shareholders and investors in the public companies they audit?
I think so. Starting at the top, at a strategic level, I recommend significant changes in two main areas:
Reform the business development process with an emphasis on meeting client needs, where they need it, how they need it, and with the kinds of resources required to do the work in a quality and risk-managed way.
I am amazed at the number of times I have to explain the following basic premise to those both inside and outside the audit firms:
…By certifying the public reports that collectively depict a corporation’s financial status, the independent auditor assumes a public responsibility transcending any employment relationship with the client. The independent public accountant performing this special function owes ultimate allegiance to the corporation’s creditors and stockholders, as well as to the investing public. This “public watchdog” function demands that the accountant maintain total independence from the client at all times, and requires complete fidelity to the public trust…United States v. Arthur Young & Co., 465 U.S. 805 (1984) U.S. Supreme Court
It’s so easy to get confused. Much has been written about the inherent conflict auditors have because they are engaged and paid by those they are supposed to be auditing. And it’s a very old and tired story, one that makes the rounds each time a scandal or “crisis” occurs.
A similar conflict has been laid bare now in the case of the ratings agencies, as a result of the “financial crisis.” From the New York Times:
In recent months, Moody’s Investors Service and its rivals, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch Ratings, have been prominent in virtually every account of the What Went Wrong horror story that is the financial crisis.
The agencies put their seals of approval on countless subprime mortgage-related securities now commonly described as toxic. The problem, critics contend, is that the agencies were paid by the corporations whose debt they were rating, earning billions in fees and giving the agencies a financial incentive to slap high marks on securities that did not deserve them.
When I was in college, we were taught that our profession, the accounting profession, was more like a vocation, calling only those who could do the right thing under pressure, stand up for the shareholder, and take the heat and sometimes severe consequences for speaking up against management. This is how “professionals” managed the auditor-client relationship conflict.
Mr Quigley said that as the profession moved away from rules “someone’s going to need to exercise judgment to apply those principles”.
“If you want to then make that transition, you have to put in place a framework for actions that a preparer [company] or auditor can take – a layer of guidance that would sit on top of a set of principles-based standards.
Last week, the SEC’s committee – on which Mr Quigley sits – discussed the idea of a “professional judgement framework” that would provide companies and auditors with “comfort that the chances of being second-guessed have been sufficiently mitigated”.
We need to reaffirm the message of the true auditor-client relationship. Let’s start in the universities, then the entry-level training in the firms, all the way to the way the practices, offices, and countries are run. Unfortunately, since the Big 4 are profit-making partnerships with an unlimited government sanctioned franchise to make tons of money with impunity it’s a tad difficult to keep those who rise to the top of the firms from becoming masters of self-serving self-preservation. Do you realize that in the largest four audit firms, the top producing partners have sold out shareholders, employees, and their souls for less than the top bonus paid at infamous AIG?
But they might, with some tough talk, realize their audit firms could be taken over by the government too, if they don’t start paying attention to the true client. Perhaps they’ll listen if I focus on the cost to the bottom line of a declining overall market and increasing litigation? Shareholders and company managements with integrity are sick of poor service.
Putting fewer professionals who are less qualified, less supervised, and less willing or able to speak up on audits and other engagements is killing the Big 4’s bottom line. Crying poor and having to cut thousands of professionals does not really speak well of the audit firms’ ability to keep settling or potentially paying out judgements of multimillion and billion dollar lawsuits. But if we can’t see their financial statements, who’s to really know for sure how “poor” they are?
Going along with corrupt, self-serving corporate management is hurting them in the public eye and with their own professionals and future recruits.
Failing to advocate for the interests of the true client, the shareholder, is now threatening the oligopoly.
-Reform the business development process with an emphasis on meeting client needs, where they’re needed, how they’re needed, and with the kinds of resources required to do work in a quality and risk-managed way.
The irony here is that SOX and all the post-enron regs have actually had the OPPOSITE effect-some years ago these firms were actually in the business of -looking out for the shareholders of public companyS
Post Enron and after SOX however BIG 4 became like the ratings crooks-BILL,BILL,BILL the client ,make THEM certify the F/S so we can cover our asses and lets get rich…nobody cared for the shareholders-it has become compliance for the sake of compliance.
a solution here(also for the ratings agencies) would be to BREAK-UP THE AUDIT DIVISIONS of the big 4 globally and then create say 20-25 middle sized,solid highly regulated global audit firms with no caps on their liabilities-the current auditor concentration model is not working,so long as Big 4 firms remain “psuedo-monopolies”,they will not act in the public company shareholders interest.
One of DT partners told me today that the firm needs to do more layoff because “the current headcount is still higher than the forecast”, even though “they have noticed that the economy is turning around”. This is just insane… I cannot believe I have worked for these greedy bastards for that many years…
Francine, you are so right, we cannot trust these greedy bastards to protect the shareholders and investors… They only care about their forecast…
“This “public watchdog” function demands that the accountant maintain total independence from the client at all times, and requires complete fidelity to the public trust …”
The words total and complete are a far cry from what exists when the one being audited is paying the auditor’s fees. This is not very much different from what you describe in re the ratings agencies.
If the Big4 was broken up into 20-25 middle sized audit firms, what would stop half of them being WAY more corrupt than the Big 4 ever were or will be? And then we would be down to 10 or so, more corruption and fraud and we are down to 8… This is starting to sound familiar…
@BREAK UP BIG 4 AUDIT, I am 100% with your idea breaking up the big 4. They are just way too big, and as CPA firms they should never be allowed, at any circumstances, to perform any non-attestation work.
However, I think the root problem here is still independence. No matter how many smaller firms you want to create, as long as the audit fee is paid by the management, there will be no independence. As a senior manager at Deloitte, I witnessed so many times throughout my career, if the clients are big enough and pay a big audit fee, they could get pretty much anything they wanted. My own experience: I got rolled off from a big engagement just because I found a few deficiencies. The client complained directly to the senior partners that they disagreed with the findings. The next thing I knew, I was out. Of course, the partners did not tell me the true reason; they actually told me that I did a good job at that time. But I know why, it was about “client services”. As far as the findings, they all disappeared.. Yes, I could report this to the ethic hotline. But it could also mean that my career at DT was going to be over given the power of the senior partners at that job.
I think Francine is so right above, if the big 4s don’t change the mindset that making more and more money for the partnership is the only purpose of doing audits; then they should never to be trusted as the guardians of the public shareholders.
[…] the way Francine McKenna keeps focused on the Big Four and their deficiencies but I disagree with her first central thesis that avoiding RIF could come by: Refocus on the true client – the shareholders and investors of […]
Heh, sorry to hear that #7 – I’m glad to report we KEEP people on jobs when they find errors. We would find it reprehensible to take them off once they made big findings. Not everyone rolls the same way.
Are we forgetting that the Big 4 are businesses? They are in business to attest to financial statements, nothing more. They have no higher purpose bestowed upon them. If the owners of these businesses (the partners) feel that their profits are declining, and that they can let people go and still function, then why would they not do this?
The accounting profession is a vocation? Certainly not. Should we esteem people who attest to the financial condition of public corporations? Not unless our society has degenerated so much that we find it impressive when people work with honesty and integrity.
Capitalism is efficient because of incentive. If the Big 4 have no incentive to work harder for clients, then apparently they need more competitors. Break up the big 4 if you want but don’t berate them for acting in their own self interests. Self interests. Isn’t this another principle of capitalism?
partners have zero obligation to their employees after they pay them their salaries/benefits. they are not there to be your friend, counselor, or make sure you can continue to feed your kids and pay your mortgage when clients dry up. thats your problem. maybe you should have saved some money along the way, or understood the risks of entering a billable-hour profession before you signed up.
as for partner profits: again, ITS THEIR FIRM. they can decide to take out whatever they fancy for themselves. if that means they decide to stop paying you, grow up, you have nothing to say, youre not a shareholder, you bear none of the risk, you have no capital at stake, you are nothing more than a tool, an industrial prostitute. same goes for law associates, engineers, and even PE/ibanking associates. we have no union protection, and are employed at-will. its the name of the game. remember, we can always say “I quit” at anytime as well.
as for eating hours, who cares? you’re a salaried employee, the number you bill out has no reflection on what you get paid. what happens is you have to “adjust” it? absolutely nothing! nothing happens! it becomes just another made up number, a meaningless plug, assign it if you will a name, perhaps “goodwill-my partner” if you feel the need to balance your accounts. put down whatever your manager tells you too, get a good review and move on, maybe to a better job somewhere else where you don’t have to deal with this crap.
I have read this blog for a long time, and honestly I agree with most of what appears on here, but this, this is just whining, socialist banter, collectivist drivel. As long as the firm continues to provide quality audits (a service, I have realized is actually pretty easily accomplished, no need for rocket-science, no need for too much advanced mathematical formulae, and no need for a 7 person rather than a 6 person team if things get tight) to its customer, then the firm has satisfied its legal/ethical duties in the marketplace.
And in the end it is true that the client is the shareholder. What leads to conflict is that auditors are compensated by management, solve that, solve the problem. Seems pretty easy, remove control of auditors from audit committees, and bring them to annual meetings before shareholders for review and compensation. If management wins proxy on this issue, well then, then the investors are idiots, and deserve whatever they get. But at least they had a chance.
For public companies the shareholder has always been an amorphous group. In reality, it has been the taxpayers (and more) for many years. If you have a 401(k), pension plan or other retirement investments you probably hold some shares in a public company.
It is tough to deal with two separate forces. Management hires and fires you. But your responsibility lies with the shareholders and you only have an indirect relationship with them. We need to look at ways to keep the management better aligned with the shareholders to avoid conflicts that get pushed onto auditors.
Exactly,the firms are in business to make money…yep,thats why they should be broken up and then they can compete in a fierce dog eat dog market.
I’d like to invest in your company. I realize it won’t be in business to make money, and losses will be encouraged, but the altruistic motives will make that point moot. Enjoy that Univ of Phoenix business 101 class?
From reading your sickening post, it seems you are out of touch with the way things are right now. Let me explain.
“Are we forgetting that the Big 4 are businesses? They are in business to attest to financial statements, nothing more. They have no higher purpose bestowed upon them.” Yes. This is true. Accounting firms are a business, just like any other organization. However, to say they are in the business of doing nothing more than offer an opinion on the financials?? What happened to assuring the public trust? Assuring the shareholders who have a stake in the entity being audited? Trust man, trust! Something that has been non-existant for the past few years. And in the times we’re in now, you say auditors have no other purpose than to just give a passing grade on the financial statements…ha!
“If the owners of these businesses (the partners) feel that their profits are declining, and that they can let people go and still function, then why would they not do this?” No one is really griping about the layoffs as this is happening everywhere in almost every industry. What’s getting to a lot of people is the fact that some partners have been notorious for generating unachievable, unrealistic forecasts. Maybe if they had stopped being delusional for once and taken off their rosy-colored shades, they wouldn’t have taken as significant of a hit as they are now. Having said that, there needs to be some degree of accountability among leadership, because right now hundreds of smart, hardworking people suffered from leadership’s blatant lack of it in the form of the pink slip. Accountability man…another thing that has been non-existant in the past few years.
“Should we esteem people who attest to the financial condition of public corporations? Not unless our society has degenerated so much that we find it impressive when people work with honesty and integrity.” Ok. You do notice that when something goes wrong within a corporation…for example, fraudulent financial reporting…that when regulators find out one of the things they usually ask is “Where were the auditors?” Stakeholders look to these people dude! They depend on these people to question material issues that could go wrong and report them. Should we give them a cookie everytime they do their job adequately? No, of course not. Sure enough, however, people are looking to them. Do we find it impressive when people work with honesty and integrity? In these days, buddy, the answer is a resounding yes! Again, honesty and integrity….two more things that have been non-existant over the past several years.
“Break up the big 4 if you want but don’t berate them for acting in their own self interests. Self interests. Isn’t this another principle of capitalism?”
Oh my goodness, this puts the icing on the cake!! Please retake a remedial course in economics when you get the chance, please! First off, you are correct. Capitalism does offers incentive…reward for the organization who perform well. But tying in self-interests in the concept of capitalism? Self-interests….the reasons for many wrongdoings, the reasons for Enron, the reasons for Madoff, the reasons for Satyam, the reasons why we’re in the economic mess we’re in right now!! It seems like you’re all for self-interests Mr. Anonnnn, you’d be the perfect candidate for a partner.
For those of you who forget, CPA’s are licensed by the government because they perform a public function. If auditing, etc. were just another miscellaneous service to business, they could get certified not licensed. It is the license which gives us monopolistic privilege. Consequently , it is not just a business. It is a public function. You swear an oath. (Remember the second commandment, this is where it “not taking the name of the Lord in vein” really meets the road)
As to the Capitalists’ arguments above, I think they make the best case for taking the Capitalism out of Public Accounting. If by being businesses, firms have to put profits ahead of serving the public, then that model doesn’t work. Period! There are various alternatives for redefining the public accounting function. One would be (God Forbid!) making it a government agency. Another would be a consumers watchdog entity of some kind. Unfortunately, no matter what we did, the new agency would be vulnerable to influence peddling of some kind. After all, we’re people (Homo Lunaticus) with all our frailties. Still, we can make a better choice.
Yes, auditing and accounting is a business, but for the largest firms it’s a requirement to safegaurd the public trust. If we’re just a business, why don’t we have the same attorney client priveleges that lawyers have?
Unfortunately the system is broken, it is very difficult to enshrine the safeguarding of the public to a private, for profit enterprise. When the big accounting firms looby for accounting policy, do you think they do do with a keen interest on the ultimate public good, or what’s better for them, will get them more business and help the bottom line?
@ Finally – Ummm… by your line of reasoning Attorneys perform a public function too as they are also licensed by the government. Thus, law firms cannot be ‘just a business’ and you asking for attorney-client privilege is ridiculous. You’re not educated enough to be an attorney hence the 45K starting salary.
5 paragraphs..alas only the last one made any sense….i have no problem if they were open about their “care only about personal profitability” mission…they should risk the careers of hundreds of poor innocent students by going to the schools and giving them a wrong, misleading picture…
if firms only cared about money and nothing else, then why harp on the best places to work for ( someone should show those folks this blog), diversity( a joke – all of diversity is laid off – no more left), work-life balance (lay off pregnant, just returned from pregnancy, etc), widespread career opportunities( when you lay them off, they can choose a career from any of the rest of the employers in the world) ….
You say, “partners have zero obligation to their employees after they pay them their salaries/benefits. they are not there to be your friend, counselor, or make sure you can continue to feed your kids and pay your mortgage when clients dry up. thats your problem. maybe you should have saved some money along the way, or understood the risks of entering a billable-hour profession before you signed up.”
My problem with the Big 4 firms is that, while what you say is true (to some extent), that is NOT the story told by the partnerships to staff. Quite the opposite, in fact. The story is that staff should trust in their partners to steer the right course. Do not question the firm’s decisions and/or logic and, in return, the firm will take care of you. Questioning leads to career limits. Questioning can get one counseled out of the firm.
The firms’ message of benevolent autocracy, moreover, is pervasive. Here are some examples. You should not question your compensation, because it is in line with other firms and in line with what you deserve to make at this time. You should not question the firms’ performance ranking process, because it is fair and equitable and will give you honest feedback on your performance. You should not question why partners must “own” client relationships (even when the client calls you and not the partner, and may not even know who the partner on the engagement is). You should accept the firms’ way of doing business, because it has created success and lots of money for everybody. Accept that partners decide who gets sales credit and who staffs engagements and who gets the utilization, because they know what’s best for you and your peers. Accept that the firms’ HR processes are appropriate for the situation and offer protection to the individual employee as well as to the partnership. And etc., etc., etc.
So every aspect of the firm is designed to create and promote a trusting relationship upward, while the truth is that there is little or no responsibility to the staff, and thus there is NO REASON to offer that trust. Realizing that your trust is misplaced is a good first step to truly assessing whether you belong in the firm, or should start to look elsewhere.
You also say, “as for partner profits: again, ITS THEIR FIRM. they can decide to take out whatever they fancy for themselves. if that means they decide to stop paying you, grow up, you have nothing to say, youre not a shareholder, you bear none of the risk, you have no capital at stake, you are nothing more than a tool, an industrial prostitute. same goes for law associates, engineers, and even PE/ibanking associates. we have no union protection, and are employed at-will. its the name of the game. remember, we can always say “I quit” at anytime as well.”
Again, you make some good points, but they are points contrary to what the firms want their employees to believe. The partners can decide how much they will make (though not every partner has an equal voice in that decision; it’s probably more correct to say that the firm belongs to senior leadership). We can debate how much “at risk” the average partner is … absent a cataclysmic Andersen-like implosion, not so much, is my guess. In particular, partners who’ve met the minimum retirement funding requirements can bail at any time, right? I know of one senior partner whose retirement annuity was set to pay him $350,000 per year, for the rest of his life. How risky was that partner’s situation?
With respect to your point about lack of union protection, I’ve posted before (more than once) that white-collar aerospace engineers have unionized and engage in collective bargaining, so there is nothing stopping accounting staff from following the same path … nothing except for name-calling such as “… socialist banter, collectivist drivel …” which tends to inhibit people from taking action that might improve their situation. Such name-calling does not really rise to any kind of cogent argument level, does it? But again, creating conservative Republicans is in the firms’ best interest, since the benefits of doing so accrue to the partners (but not especially to the staff). So it’s not surprising that those are the talking points used to inhibit folks from exploring options other than having their compensation set for them by a patriarchal partnership, a benevolent group of dictators that really knows what’s best for everyone ….
Another point you get wrong is the nonsense about “employment at-will” — which operates to protect the firms (as well as other businesses). Ever read your employment contract? Mine said that, while the firm could fire me at any time, I had to give two weeks notice before resigning. How was that “at-will”? Moreover, I have heard (many times, at more than one firm) that if I gave appropriate notice and didn’t resign during busy season, the firm would work to find me suitable employment with a client. (See discussion about patriarchal crap spoon-fed to the staff, above. The fact is, nobody really needs that assistance; anybody who has spent more than 2 years in the Big 4 can easily find employment on their own … if they have time to look.)
On a related note, which is more drivel-like, the message that the firm will take care of you and do what’s right, don’t worry or think too hard about what’s going on — or the message that you as an individual have little or no power in the firm, and only by grouping together do you have any chance of affecting things without cratering your career?
Finally, re: your point about “As long as the firm continues to provide quality audits (a service, I have realized is actually pretty easily accomplished, no need for rocket-science, no need for too much advanced mathematical formulae, and no need for a 7 person rather than a 6 person team if things get tight) to its customer, then the firm has satisfied its legal/ethical duties in the marketplace.” That’s just nonsense. Did you not read Fran’s post? Did you not read the Supreme Court’s decision in Arthur Young? Again, that’s what the firms want you to believe, but court decisions say (rather emphatically) otherwise. Go back and read the bit Fran posted above about “certifying” financial statements; think about the implications of the use of that particular term by SCOTUS.
Attorney’s advocate on behalf of their client, CPA’s advocate on behalf of the public and shareholders, its a big difference and that’s what the privelege points to.
“by your line of reasoning Attorneys perform a public function too as they are also licensed by the government” that wasn’t my line of reasoning, please take some logic courses. I agreed with the senitments that the license gives us a monopolistic privelege and that ultimately we serve a public function. The goverment is basically telling the companies “Hey every year you need an audit and it can only be done by CPA’s”. CPA’s then compete with each other to try to get business, not lose clients, make a profit and hopefully somewhere in there help investors. They are also a big voice at the table that sets up the very standards that they try to enforce and ultimately make a profit on. If you can’t see inherent flaws in the set up, then you maybe still be loopy from all the kool-aid they fed you at the recruiting events.
It’s not about socialism or capitalism, it’s about being honest. If you’re a profit hungry machine that has a greater staff turnover than double double’s at a weight watchers convention, then at least be a bit honest to your staff. Don’t tell them they are poor performers when they are getting laid off, just say that the partner needs a new yacht and your salary will just about cover the downpayment (maybe he’ll name it after you). At the firm I worked at, they let a bunch of people go and then sent out an email saying everyone was going to work more hours in the week and that you had to take mandatory PTO. They then couched it in language like “this is for your benefit so you can get a “jumpstart” on planning” and “take some needed time off and enjoy it with the family”.
Just tell me that we’re downsizing and need the people left to do the work and we’re increasing the work hours to keep pace with profits. Just be honest.
‘I agreed with the senitments that the license gives us a monopolistic privelege and that ultimately we serve a public function. The goverment is basically telling the companies “Hey every year you need an audit and it can only be done by CPA’s”. ‘
Just take ‘audit’ and replace with any number of corporate legal issues. then take ‘CPA’ and replace with Attorney and magically its the same thing. You should really read a wikipedia article or two on corporate law friend. You really do not have any idea what you are talking about. The only difference between an accoutning firm and a law firm is there are only really 4 accounting firms worth mentioning (more realistically 3) and a million law firms. Also, attorneys get paid more than you faster.
Again you fail to see the big difference, bub, and that’s that the attorney (generally speaking) is acting on behalf of the client and is paid by the client. CPA’s/Auditors are acting on behalf of the public and are paid by the client. Let me know when you run acrooss an attorney that’s acting on behalf of the public but getting paid by the person/corporation he’s prosecuting. Compliance advice and counsel is different than investigating and opining on a company’s records.
I’m very impressed by your references to making more money than me as an attorney…overcompensating are we?
While attorneys in theory act for corporations, as a practical matter they do not. Attorneys act for corporate managements. To the extent corporate management’s interests are not the same as their shareholders, attorneys have the same “classical agency” problem CPAs do.
I have read the Arthur Young decision many times. For my money, the Supreme Court, Congress and the Presidency have done nothing effective to improve the audit quality since the 1977 1760-page green book which Congress prepared on the the then Big Eight. Francine hits on the problem: corporations hire their CPAs. While Francine may exhort CPA firms to better behavior, I say such exhortations are a waste of words. To see the answer, I refer you to 10 Harvard Law Review 457, “The Path of the Law”, 1897, Holmes, Oliver Wendell. Page 461 has his famous “Bad Man” story. Read it. The only thing we can do to improve audit quality is:raise the cost of bad audits relative to good ones. All ethics classes, corporate governance changes, AICPA pronouncements, PCAOB acts, SEC enforcement actions will accompliish nothing if they do not RAISE THE COST OF BAD AUDITS RELATIVE TO GOOD ONES!
Sometimes attorneys act for the “corporation” when they are conducting an internal investigation. Many executives get confused when the in-house counsel or the outside attorney hired by the Board of Directors comes around and starts asking questions. They believe that attorney-client privilege exists. It does not. If you are ever going to be questioned as part of a serious internal investigation, best to get your own attorney, one that you pay. Then again, the organization sometimes has an obligation to pay your attorney fees, like in the KPMG Tax Shelter case with their partners. When KPMG refused to pay those partners legal fees to defend themselves, the case against them was eventually thrown out because they were denied due process.
This issue of the difference between attorneys and licensed public accountants is an interesting one and obviously needs authoritative clarification. I will put it on my to-do list.
I think the message is, yes there are agency problems and most people/professions may have to deal with them to some degree. The problem here is that Auditors have third party users and people that would rely on the financial statements as individuals that they would be responsible to along with the supposed bedrock of independence, which makes their issue that much more acute.
It is good to question all those things you mention. But in the end there are a few factors that will always hold true. First, supply and demand will have the biggest impact on your salary. Management knows that when there is great demand for your skills and not enough supply, you have the power and can demand the pay/benefits or simply go to another firm. Right now they have the power as there is more supply and less demand. That pendulum swings throughout your lifetime. In the 1990s the employees had the power, but now the employers do. Complaining at this point won’t change that, and I’m sure you will forget to be thankful when the pendulum swings the other way… but I hope maybe you will try to be appreciative and fair with the recruiting process and with your employer when you have the power, just like you are expecting them to be fair with you now.
As for your skepticism about the review process… I am pretty confident that you have never participated in that process. Truth is, the process is generally biased to favor the employee. Companies and individuals are reluctant to be negative about their employees and fearful of law suits if they do not go above and beyond to be sure they gave the employee the best opportunities possible to prove themselves. In general employees are not fair in their self-evaluations. They rate themselves unrealistically high and see almost no flaws in themselves. Few young employees are particularly self-aware, and even those that are self-aware play the game of trying to cover up their weaknesses (or finger point to others) rather than own up to their personal realities and work to improve. Management does not expect a perfect employee — they want people who are trying to improve and able to see where and how to do that. Much of this is human nature that is true at all firms — and has little to do with the B4. It isn’t perfect, there are abusers… there are managers who seek to fire someone. I myself have rated one or two people so poorly and recommended termination — and seen it happen. But before it happened, those people were transitioned to work with at least 3-4 other managers to see if they found a home with a different manager or if my rating was inaccurate. Manager opinions are tested and not accepted as gospel.
It is hard to trust in processes shrouded in secrecy. There is some truth to a need for secrecy — to protect you as much as anything else. But, I suggest you look at the performance review process as a process that serves you. You will get out of it what you put into it. If you play the paint a rosy picture and blame others for everything game — you will get little out of it. If you look inward and really become self-aware… that will benefit you. I have been fortunate to have managers who I have trusted (rarely has that trust been misguided) – but when I haven’t trusted the reviewer I have continued to be honest with myself and protected myself by doumenting less. But in this world, sometimes you have to be willing to be vulnerable. Sometimes you trust in the wrong people — but mostly people are inherently good people. You will benefit more by taking a leap of faith from time to time. And certainly question it all — a good manager will mentor you through those questions. They may not be able to tell you everything, particularly if it is about someone else’s review… but they can explain the process and the reasoning and so forth.
As for at-will employment. I believe that by law you can walk out without the 2 week notice. 2 week notice is simply a standard curtesy – mostly it means I will work for you for 2 weeks, but in that time I will do very little and take long lunches and go home early and you will just pay me in hopes that maybe I will transition some work if I feel nice enough to help you out. But while the company can terminate you at any time, they generally pay you a minimum of 2 weeks pay (this may also be by law – I am not sure) when they do that… so it goes both ways. Generally when a person is terminated, the firm pays out quite a bit — 2 weeks regular pay, accrued vacation pay, severence pay to name some of it.
Question? Having a CPA license and being able to conduct audits is a rare skill. It’s hard for people to go through at get 150 hours of education (which is required to take a CPA exam in most states) and pass this exam, this almost always requires a masters degree and a long term committment to the profession. Why do auditors, specifically licensed CPAs of these Big 4 and mid tier firms not UNIONIZE? Electricians unionzie because their skills and trade are rare. Accountants should not have their skills be ignored because some large firm wants to make some petty quota. Sometimes a large professional industry has to eat cost for a prolonged period of time to keep their employees. When the market turns back around, it’s not like you can easily find 100’s of CPAs at the local job fair. So once again, why is the Big 4 firms LICENSED employees Unionized???
this is pure bull.I workedfor D&T and have been in many concensus meeting,tell the truth- it is a place where most people go say nice things about their buddies and ding those they don’t like or who are not a part of their clique.It is OK to drink the d-kool aid and to be a cheerleader for the firm,but please don’t lie !!!
Paragraph 1 – employers dont care about you as much – employees are at their mercy and compensation – when there is demand, we will take care of you, when not, we will throw you to the dogs on the street on your backside…where is the fairness?
Paragraph 2 – review process biased towards employee? people being reluctant to be negative about employees? why dont you let everyone know what firm you work for and have them weigh in if thats true? truth is something else. what the partner or their cronies wants, they get…
Paragraph 4 – there is need for secrecy to avoid lawsuits? – that itself shows that you are doing things which you dont want people to know – truth and fairness will not beget you any lawsuits – secrecy, ganging up and being unfair on people, giving false reasons for firing or laying off someone will most definitely get you some…so you need to shroud it in secrecy… practice what you preach – why dont you take a leap of faith for a change?
Working in Audit is like buying a car, people will swear by the ones that did them good personally. In the case of Audit, people will be a mirror of their experiences and what they’ve seen. Some have seen more than others, and thus their perspective is wider and more encompassing. In some cases people have been completely shafted by the system (I know of some) and in others they’ve met decent people and managed to do ok. I personally think Francine has seen a lot and has a candid (albeit a little forthright) viewpoint on the profession and I believe she has the contacts that give her perspective a decent scope. To disregard it completely would be dismissive obstinence.
I personally feel there’s a lot of things that need to be fixed about audit, both in the way that firms conduct business internally and externally and it would be wise for the powers that be to step back and be a little introspective (similar to the expectation of staff).
1. “As for your skepticism about the review process… I am pretty confident that you have never participated in that process. Truth is, the process is generally biased to favor the employee.” Wrong. Many times wrong. Been there, done that, at more than one “Big 4″ firm. From more than one perspective. Your “truth” is wrong as well. In point of fact, the process is biased to favor employees who have connections to senior partner/mentors/coaches who have a strong, influential voice in the review/ranking process. Employees who have no advocate at the table, suffer in comparison to those who do.
2. “Management does not expect a perfect employee …” Wrong again. While trends are important to the relative ranking, the way to success in the Big 4 is to fail at nothing; and consequently you do not need to excel at anything. First, be average or better in every possible area, from independence and training compliance to utilization to knowledge management to engagement feedback. After that, if you are good at something or have some above average characteristics, then that moves you up a bit. The reason for this is that the review/ranking process starts with the negatives, weeding out people based on whatever negative characteristics or attributes are discovered. Once the “low performers” have been identified, only then do the positive attributes work to move people up in the rankings. This is just human nature, especially in the Big 4, since it’s easier to identify a negative and move people down, than it is to identify a possibly intangible positive to move people up.
3. “It is hard to trust in processes shrouded in secrecy. There is some truth to a need for secrecy — to protect you as much as anything else. But, I suggest you look at the performance review process as a process that serves you. You will get out of it what you put into it.” Pardon me, but you are spouting the same paternalistic crap that the firms do — “trust us” they cry, “we have your best interests at heart” — knowing all the while that the trust is completely unwarranted. (Read my prior post again, please.) Also, the part about protecting “me” (or us)? Completely untrue. Anybody who’s been through the process understands that the primary objective is to PROTECT THE FIRM from employment-related lawsuits. Protecting the employees (from what? I ask you) does not enter into the equation in any sense.
4. Re: notice. There is a difference between a courtesy, and a contract clause that can be breached and thus create a cause of action. As for “accrued vacation pay” and “severance pay” those are payments mandated either by law or by firm policy/practice. The firm does “me” no favors when I receive such mandatory payments, and thus I owe no the firm no gratitude for making them.
5. Name calling. I’ve done none of that, simply pointed out bull poo-poo when somebody tried to pawn it off as gold. I.e., my argument is with your argument, not with you or any label of you.
I have to agree they can be biased. I’ve been in difficult situations and was told be someone not to worry because they were the one who would be involved in the review process. Granted, the other person not involved in the review process is an incompetent moron, but as review processes are underway, I feel a little better that I will have an advocate. That doesn’t mean I will be a superstar – that just means I am not “as” worried about losing my job.
@TT– have you ever been part of the review process? Have you ever had to give a review? Have you ever delivered a good review or a bad review to someone? Unless you can say you have done these things I don’t think you can really talk about it in the inflammatory language that you like to use. Based on your comments I offer the following advice – which I know you do not want, but maybe someone else on the post will gain something from it.
Building your career is about building your relationships with people — both within and outside of your practice and firm. It is also about building your skills which includes the skills required to execute an engagement and the soft skills of facilitating a team, managing a client, working with others, and so much more. You do need to build positive relationships and if you cannot do that or haven’t done it then you are correct that you will not have an advocate (eventually you need many advocates). But that is something you can fix. The way to fix it is to find someone you an trust and share with them — so that you can explore yourself and become more self aware. Getting ahead in your career is not something that will happen by sitting at your desk, waiting for work to come to you and performing it well (even perfectly). To get ahead you need to push yourself to grow, and the review process is a time to reflect on that and be honest with yourself. Being smart will not get you to the top, being smart is only ONE part of what you need to be to get to the top.
I understand that you feel this is spouting a bunch of bull. But I have experienced it from both ends. I have received good and bad reviews, and given good and bad reviews. I have provided feedback on employees, participated in all day review meetings, and been shut out of those meetings as well. I have fired people, counseled people out, hired people, trained people, held on to people in my team that I don’t want to lose, and suggested others find a different team. I haven’t done any of these things just once — for I have 30+ years of experience in many industries from academia to defense contracting to government to consulting to IT to the B4. I have heard all the things you are saying… and they are full of the type of emotions that generally come from someone who hasn’t taken the time to look inward but wants to look out at others and blame them for all the problems. I have done that myself, and sometimes it is warranted. But most times it is not warranted. In the end, the only part of this equation you have control over is yourself. That isn’t fun to realize – I hate it myself – but it is true. If you choose to handle it all in the manners that your language implies – I promise you that you will not succeed… anywhere.
Unless and until you find yourself sitting down to give someone a negative review you will never understand how hard that is to do and how people work so hard not to do it. The real disservice you will get in your life is when the manager avoids telling you all sides of the story — including the negatives. Because if there are no negatives then you cannot grow and improve. I recommend you listen to @31 just a little bit harder.
I agree with your comments about self-evaluations. It would be interesting to take an employee survey. Employees could be asked to indicate if they believed their performance was in the bottom 10% or the top 10% of their peers. I suspect that we would have five to ten times as many employees in the top group as compared to the bottom group.
Managers and Partners often find it difficult to prepare difficult candid evaluations as everyone likes to be liked. Managers and Partners will sometimes choose the path of least resistance by preparing a “meeting expectations” evaluation for a non-performing employee and just never schedule the employee on another job. This is not fair to the employee or the firm as the employee ends up frustrated, under-utilized and without the necessary information to improve their performance.
I want to talk about the review process too. This is an open secret in our group at Deloitte. One year, partners were discussing performance of a senior manager in an evaluation meeting. He was considered as an average payer and got 3 (1 is best and 5 is worst) on all his evaluations. So all the partners in the meeting agreed on his rating as 3 overall. But before the meeting was over, a senior partner walked in, and claimed that senior manager should be 1. Needless to say, everyone in the meeting just sat there and no one wanted to dispute with the senior partner. And that was, the guy was changed from an average player to a super star…
What does this story tell staff in the firm? Working hard is not important, doing a good audit is not important. As long as you have good relationship with a senior partners, that all matters…
@40 – it is possible that that team and that senior partner are corrupting the process. It is also possible that the average rating was based on incomplete information. Know that the review process is on-going at all times. It doesn’t take place only in a single meeting. Management starts rating each person that reports to them starting the first day of the performance year… they talk to each other all the time (just like staff talk about the managers). So I suggest you don’t junp to a conclusion at all — not unless it is worth taking the time to dig out all the facts. You may have only part of the picture. Don’t get me wrong — I am not saying what happened was right… just that you probably don’t know enough to tell.
Welcome to the real world. It’s not what you know, it’s who you know. This is the same in any organization. Corporation, School, Organization, Politics, Non-profit organizations. Anywhere! Remember when everyone was encouraged to “network” to get your foot in the door at your Big4? It’s the same thing, it’s not what you knew that got you there, it was who you knew. It’s no different once you actually start.
I think the guy that is talking about Uninoization is on to something. Why don’t big 4 auditors unionize? I have friends that are aerospace engineers who are union. But in reality, the vast majority of big 4 employers drink the kool aid and think their firm is so incredible and no matter what, it’s not leaderships fault if the firm does bad, it’s theirs.
@41 – same thing happened in my office. A discussion took place about an above-average performer in our group, who had just returned from a stint in another office. Having worked with this individual, I have first hand knowledge that this individual was an above-average performer, with at best a 2 ranking, and the comments from others seem to support my conclusion. This individual’s ptr coach pops in to the evaluation meeting (not having listened to any of the other PDM comments) and announces that this person has always been ranked a 1 while with the firm and should still be ranked a 1. As others can attest, 1’s are never given out, and this person was not that good. They gave this person a 1. A few years later, after this ptr coach fell out of favor, this individuals ranking began to drop and more accurately reflect performance. Who knows? This year, they may give this person a 3. The whole process is a joke. This is the way that Deloitte operates, and if you want to work there and be successful, you have to be willing to play the game. So many more stories … but so little time …
I have to admit – I do not work for D&T… a different B4. But whenever I have interfaced with D&T at training, conferences, even work assignments… I have never been impressed with the culture. I cannot attest to the review process or the quality of work or the partner greed there… I can just say it is not my experience in my practice. Maybe those that hate the D&T culture need to look at a different firm – but you may have to wait for the economy to improve. This is an unfair judgement – but it seemed to me the D&T employees were stuck up, arrogant, ultra-conservative competitors that will backstab and climb the ladder by putting others down. The real way to climb the ladder is to build people up — then you all march forward as a team. I have seen this work in a B4.
I said :”Break up the big 4 if you want but don’t berate them for acting in their own self interests. Self interests. Isn’t this another principle of capitalism?”
So you said: “Oh my goodness, this puts the icing on the cake!! Please retake a remedial course in economics when you get the chance, please! First off, you are correct. Capitalism does offers incentive…reward for the organization who perform well. But tying in self-interests in the concept of capitalism? Self-interests….the reasons for many wrongdoings…”
So I need a remedial course in econ to learn that self interests has nothing to do with capitalism? I think someone needs to go back to 8th grade and have the school teacher re teach Adam Smith’s concept of the Invisible Hand. THE only reason why capitalism is successful is because of people acting in their own interests. Are they going to act in the interests of the people as a whole or that of the government? Clearly not or we would all be living in a wonderful socialist utopia which you seem to be stuck in. This is the real world, its sometimes harsh, but the sooner you get over it, the more prepared you will be to come back to reality.
Unionizing is an interesting thought. There was a time and place for a union. It still exists in some places and occupations. But be careful what you wish for. Unions have many downsides. If the business environment can manage to provide jobs in a non-abusive manner… the idea of union is not needed and often harmful. The question is what is abusive. I do not think adults working hard for good pay is abusive. If you come out of college and make $50K — that is pretty good. Do you have to put in extra time during busy season or when deadlines arise — certainly. Can you take a long lunch when these things are not true, work from home when your child is ill, or get some free food on the firm — yes. Pay attention to the pros as well as the cons of a job. I do not see abuse of staff. The risk of unionization is too great. Enough of our work is being off-shored in this country, there are plenty of people who will work for less. Unions are part of the problem that caused this economic situation (consider GM). They are not the entire problem, but they contributed. You don’t get anything for free in life — unions try to make that happen… employees get all the upside and none of the downside of working. But then again, in a union performance review would be based solely on years of service, maybe certifications — not on performance. This promotes mediocrity.
@32 and 43. Getting a CPA is not that difficult. Also keep in mind, in regards to your comment about the CPA being rare and requiring committment to the profession: even with states going to the 150 hr rule, they don’t actually require a masters in accountancy. Most states require the same classes they did when it only took 120 hours. So you can knock off the required classes during undergrad and then take whatever you want for grad school. Hell you could get a masters is basket weaving and it would meet the requirements. That doesn’t really require a “long term committment to the profession.”
The other factor is most people see the Big 4 firms as a means to an end. You go in for 2 years, get your experience for the CPA, get out with a CPA and a good name on your resume. For those employees (the vast majority) I don’t see the appeal of a union.
Who is the client? FM is correct to point out that there is an inherent conflict in that the shareholders are the people being served yet the person doing the hiring and paying is the company being audited. This isn’t optimal for sure. But the only solutions I have heard are:
1) turn it over to a gov’t agency — in my opinion this is not wise. The gov’t generally does not provide top quality work, and is as or more prone to corruption.
2) create more audit firms only smaller ones so there is more competition — this doesn’t solve the problem, you still aren’t getting paid by the shareholders
well – I really haven’t seen any other thoughts here. It seems the only thing to talk about is whether to regulate by a gov’t organization or how to put the ethics and integrity back in the organizations if and where it is currently lacking. I guess that may be why the thread gravitates in that direction.
I think the way to put the ethics and integrity back in the firms is to start with the young people. But they are so stuck being bitter and are not ready to be constructive, that I am not sure anything will change for a while. It is not about revolution but evolution — it the way to make true and lasting change in the world. OK – there have been some revolutions that were very successful — I know… don’t get on me for that. I do believe more in evolution – maybe in a series of tiny revolts.
(There are so many anonymous posters that it’s hard to know whether I’m responding to one or a dozen people. Folks, pick a name and go with it.)
“@TT– have you ever been part of the review process? Have you ever had to give a review? Have you ever delivered a good review or a bad review to someone?

Based on your comments I offer the following advice – which I know you do not want, but maybe someone else on the post will gain something from it.”
Dude, whomever you are, did you not actually read my post, the one that contained the “been there, done that” part? Let me be clear, I have given many upon many reviews in my career with the “Big 4″. I have given engagement feedback and taken engagement feedback. I have been a “file reviewer” several times and presented staff ranking recommendations to review committees, and defended those recommendations in the face of skepticism and probing questions. I have mentored and coached and successfully gotten my folks promoted. My last senior associate had low utilization, a prior year ranking of not promotable, but a burning desire to make manager. He also had some excellent engagement feedback that testified as to his true abilities. We turned it around and got him promoted in one year.
How did we do it? Well we built us some relationships, is how. We went to key partners who ranked him the previous year and figured out what the issues/questions had been. We laid out an action plan and addressed those issues/questions, one by one, and made sure the partners got what they needed to see and hear. We went to key partners who were going to participate in the current year’s review process and (each of us) had a one-on-one with those partners. We identified each partner’s hot buttons and addressed them. I took partners to lunch and sometimes even paid out of my own pocket (didn’t run the expense through), so that I could plead my senior associate’s case. (By the way, the fundamental issue was that his relationship partners were in the wrong geography and didn’t participate in his market’s review process.) We got the partners talking to one another, confirming that our talking points were valid. We set up conference calls between certain partners, but didn’t participate in them. We met with influential senior managers and HR folks. We made the business case over and over. More importantly, we did a lot of listening to find out what the promote case needed to be, so that we could make it. And by the way, my senior associate “protege” wasn’t even in my market, or my practice, and I had no idea what he did for a living. But when his review came up at year-end, everybody knew who he was, and why he should be promoted, even though there were twice as many qualified senior-promotes as there were manager openings (based on the firm’s “leverage model”), so that there was only a 50/50 chance of a successful promote recommendation being approved.
I have given negative reviews. I gave a review that went up two levels of partner and up three levels of HR, obtaining concurrence at every level, which led to a senior associate being “separated” for poor performance. Did he agree with me? No way! In fact, we had to have the review over the phone because he wouldn’t meet with me to have an in-person discussion. But ultimately I did what was right and he got the feedback that everybody agreed he deserved to get (even if he didn’t agree). I’m grateful my engagement partner backed me up 100% because otherwise that one easily could have gone south.
I was a part of a team that led the redesign of a firm’s review process. Did I lead that team? Nope — it was a partner, not me. Did the firm accept our redesigned process? Nope — too much change (and it put too much burden on the staff coaches and mentors, I was told). But I studied the firm’s process in great detail and identified opportunities for improvement in transparency as well as opportunities for streamlining, so I know whereof I speak.
So please believe me when I say I have experience in the Big 4 review process. Agree with me or not, but don’t tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about.
I’m out of here unless somebody wants to discuss the issues instead of telling me I can’t have participated in the review process because I’m not proclaiming its perfection to the world.
So, so many stories. The whole thing is like watching how abusive, narcissistic parents treat each of their children differently. You can see in that sly, underhanded way that certain siblings are favored; despite poor skill or capabilities, they are given wish-list clients, locations, industries and more work to meet or exceed utilization hours. The (scape) goats are given a dry crumb or two, and told to feel blessed to be born, or in this case, lucky to be employed.
Very good work Tenacious. It’s great to see the process in place work correctly. You can’t ask for much more than that.
@TT – Thank you for a well delivered message. I now see that not only you have the experience, but you do it right. And for the record – I did read the post in detail, but was asking you questions about your experience because the language you used was unclear. The emotion and tone of it was easy to read in a completely different context. I “asked” if you have had these experiences, because I wasn’t sure. Your new post is all evidence of how the process does work. The things you have done are the right things and have helped some solid performers move further in their career, and probably personally as well. So I don’t understand why you are so upset about the review process.
My current suspicion is that the process isn’t so bad, but the people implementing it are — and is that the majority of the people or just a few? Or is it just the most influential people? If all the people in the process did the things you do (which by the way is what I do as well)… then would the process work? What stops people from behaving as you do throughout the process… and if you wrote up a new process (blessed by the firm) that told them to do it, would that change a thing?
Just so you know — I think you are D&T — I am not… so we aren’t talking about the exact same process.
@51 – think about what you have said. The review process has one purpose — to differentiate between the employees… who is top and who is bottom of the pile. By definition the process will not pat 100% of the people on the back 100% of the time. If everyone in the employee pool is a superstar, then the superstars not as good as the others will still be in the bottom. Unlike school — not everyone can get an A+ on the report card. It is about resources and where they will put those resources. Obviously the first resource to divide up is pay. But each manager has the resource of their time — so they will choose who they will invest their time in. That isn’t favoritism — it is selecting the team you believe in and wish to invest in. The only way it is favoritism is if the managers NEVER try fresh blood to see if there is someone else to invest in.
I’m here. Working on the next post and a few other things. And sleeping. And eating. And talking to friends.
In the meantime, I’m thrilled with this discussion especially of the performance review process. I want to thank all of the commenters who have added their thoughts.
A while back I wrote a detailed description of the process at PwC. As you can imagine, I thought it sucked. In general, the automated process leaves a lot to be desired, is mainly a response to liability management, and an opportunity for partners to abdicate responsibility for their decisions and blame it on the committee. Makes it harder to claim discrimination by any particular jerk…
Print your engagement reviews and mid-term and year end project reviews and any feedback you receive via email. It’s too late when you’re let go and kicked off internal systems.
Keep the cards and letter coming. And I would chime in with Tenacious Truman. Set up a pseudonym, at least, and stick to it. Makes it so much easier (and so much more fun) to respond to ideas and thoughts directly, consistently, and to see threads over time. A real conversation.
To the guy that said the CPA is not hard, and starting at 50K for a masters degree is good is LOST. Come out with a masters of engineering, if a firm offered that student 50K they would laugh. Also, the CPA parts rest every 18 months so you have to be pretty dang competent to pass the exam. I know tons of associate/seniors that are not even close to passing the thing….so don’t say the CPA is easy, or that 50K starting with a master degree is good, because it’s not. The big 4, in my opinion, is TOO big, not allowing enough competitors, thus the salaries are way to low for the skills of the employees. This is why the big 4 is constantly being raided for their employees. They do not have long term committment to their people, they don’t care about quality fo audits (in my opinion), just making a large margin by paying competent employees low and charging outrageous fees.
And I think the Big 4 colludes to suppress and control salaries, with the cooperation of the co-opped university pimps.
55 -Does the process need a bell curve? What if everyone is more or less a superstar – a bunch of greats, very goods, goods, satisfactories and no “needs improvements?” Is the review process looking to define “black sheep” so that there is a real bell curve?
And how reliable is this process? How does a staff rely on a review where the manager pressured the senior into giving a staff a poor review, under threat of “failure to follow direction,” and the senior obliged? What about reviews from managers and senior managers who are later professionally censured and/or criminally prosecuted? How reliable is a review from managers and senior managers who gang up on someone in the office by taking away work, shrinking hours, etc?
1. Please re-read my post #22. I hope I had more points, and more fundamental points, than simply one about how the employee review process sucks.
2. To those who posted that my story about working the system shows how the process works, or is supposed to work: I disagree. A proper review process free from bias and undue influence wouldn’t need me, or my senior associate, or you or your partner, to “work” the review partners in the way we were forced to. A proper review process would be resistant to such blatant influencing. A proper review process wouldn’t need “independent file reviewers” because the process itself would be independent and objective (to the extent possible given humans are involved). A proper review process wouldn’t exhibit the lack of transparency and obvious bias I’ve seen.
3. To those who think I work(ed) for D&T, or E&Y, or PwC, or KPMG, maybe not. I’ve worked for several of the Big 4 firms and, believe me, they are pretty much all the same. I know the review process at several firms, and had detailed “benchmarking” discussions with folks who came from the other firm(s) I didn’t work at. No one firm does it particularly better than any other firm. The faults of one firm’s process are, more or less, the faults of the other firms.
4. Want to benchmark your firm against the “best in class” — benchmark against Andersen. As with most things Android, it was all about consistency. All managers and above (including partners) gathered in one opulent offsite location for an all-day (and/or all-night) review meeting. Every piece of feedback for an individual staff member for the period was displayed for all to see (via in-focus projector). All the rankings were examined against each other for consistency. If YOUR piece of feedback about that employee was different from the other feedback (e.g., you ranked the person as a 1 while the others ranked her a 3) — then YOU were called up in front of the group to defend your feedback and ranking. If you failed to defend your position, the fact that you couldn’t be trusted to give accurate feedback was noted for YOUR review, and factored into your ranking. When everybody in the room agreed that the feedback was accurate, then a consensus ranking was obvious and the process moved on. That kept the process honest, or as honest as it could be, given that it was biased against experienced hires. (Not just my opinion, see Toffler’s book.)
@60 – it is NOT possible to have everyone as a superstar. If that is the case, the review standard is too low. That is the nature of business. But it isn’t a bell curve either. At least at my firm, the needs improvements are rare. I have been here over 7 years and to my knowledge the needs improvement has happened about 3 times, and there have been way more than 3 people who have needed vast improvement (also my opinion – but validated by many people of many titles). Those other people are given the benefit of the doubt and coached along until either they succeed or they leave the firm. Your examples of what can happen with negative reviews has never once occured in my 7+ years at KPMG, nor in my 30+ years working… in my personal experience. I’m sure it has happened elsewhere.
I have recently had a case where you could argue it was potentially going to happen. Let’s call the players, director, manager and staff. The staff member started out performing well on the job, but by the end the manager was very frustrated with his (for argument sake we’ll make all the people a he) performance. But the manager was unwilling to provide the feedback to him — in fact gave a glowing review at interim. The director took a long time to get wind of the problems (the director was out of the office for a long period of time). But once he got wind of it the negative feedback started to flow. My role — I am tasked to manage the staff members performance review process. So I spent at least 8 hours across several days talking to the director, manager, staff member, two partners, another director and others involved with the review process. I pushed on each an every person — was that the staff member’s fault or was he inappropriately coached, monitored, etc. I am not a partner or director — so I was arguing with people senior to me and telling them they had to provide specifics, and they had to evaluate their own participation in the process. In the end, this staff member has had a major growth experience.. and so have the managers, directors and partners. I have been praised by partners and directors for pushing back on them (not told I have to ding the staff member without questioning them) and being persistent and making the process fair. The staff member is getting a fair shake and while the review will not be glowing, he has recognized some things he didn’t do well – but more importantly he has recognized ways he can avoid this in the future and ways he could have and will perform better. He has a list of behaviors he intends to correct and how he intends to correct not only himself but the perceptions of others when the perceptions are inaccurate. The dialogue has begun with his manager and director. He is very appreciative for the review process. I have many more hours to spend before this is ironed out – but it was worth the investment.
So, as far as reliability — the process is reliable if you actively engage in it and you find supporters to be actively engaged. I am assigned to this responsibility (and NOT, I am NOT HR), but the staff member could select a different person if I was not meeting his needs. OK – there are only limited people he can select from – but I am not the only choice. So, you need to be honest, fair and engaged in the process yourself, and you need to have people to support you and advocate on your behalf. Advocacy does not mean they say you are a superstar – it means they are fair and honest and engaged in the process and doing what is best for you. In this case what was best was to deliver the negative feedback and help him work through what it means and how to work with it going forward. Also note, if you are never told that you have things to improve upon, you will never get better. All reviews should include some element of growth areas.
As for the bell curve — generally, most people are in the middle bucket as far as performance. You will have 5-10% superstars, and 1-2% needs improvement. But if you think you are a superstar every year, I suggest you start being honest with yourself. It isn’t possible that all employees are superstars. If you grew up in the age when everyone got a trophy even if you were on the losing team — that simply isn’t the way the world works. I feel bad that you didn’t learn this when you were young, but it is time to grow up. Sometimes you lose. And in this world there are a lot more stupid people than there are superstars. Afterall, some people voted for ________________ (fill in the blank on which president you think is an idiot).
@TT – I know you are done… I agree it would be great to get bias out of the process… but I believe you are fighting human nature and not the review process. People are generally opinionated and biased — and while the world wants an objective and measurable review — that isn’t ever going to happen. It is about a process that involves advocacy and communication and debate and all these time consuming things. That debate is on-going… every day you are in the office (not just at review time). I commend your intention (yes I am @54)… I am not sure you can achieve the goal without the advocacy and effort you described in your earlier post. My reason — because we are all people but more important each of us has a personal agenda that is first above all else – and sometimes the advocates need to challenge others to put their personal agendas aside for a moment..
While the KPMG process for my practice isn’t exactly like what you described for Andersen — it is pretty close.
I actually wonder about the firms colluding to control pay. But unlike you — I think they pay way too much to the college grads, and promote way too fast.
To the person who said that so “you work a little bit longer during busy season” let’s not get caught up on the negative or something like that. I would like to know what company you work for and what group your in. In my opinion, taking a 2 hr lunch does not make up for working 80hrs a week for 5 weeks straight which i just did. Things are changing in firms, you don’t have the summer “off” like it used to be. Hell, if you’re unassigned during the summer nowadays ppl are having heart attacks b/c they are afraid of their utilization. Saying hey, you worked hard for the last 3 months and didnt even get to see your family, so why don’t you take friday off does NOT, I repeat, does NOT makes up for the extra hours you put in. Do you think if they compensated accordingly (ie) overtime, they would ask these hours of you? Calculating my per hour paycheck for busy season, it came to $11 and hour. and NO, it doesn’t average out over the year because now I’m back to working “standard hours” which btw pwc has somehow increased to 50. Pharmacists that work double shifts and thus have these kind of hours get to take a week off after each week of working a double shifts. IF we got summer of AT FULL PAY and not the measly 20% they are forcing audit ppl to take, then I could be like, hey, that’s just the way the business works.
Work at home and all that jazz, please, i’d like to see anyone under a manager that is allowed to do that. Considering it takes about 5 years to make it to manager, i think it’s just good PR. PWC sent out an email in NY basically saying, you need to be in the office even if you are unassigned. I could go on.
Anyway, since we are talking about review process, news from boston is that it’s changed once again. There is no longer a 4 rating. You are going to be wither 1 – exceptional, 2- average or 3 – underperforming. They said in not so many words that the 3’s would be fired. I sense a round of layoffs coming after this ARC process although obviously they will say they are getting rid of the under performers. It’s amazing, if you are not exceptional then you are average……
8:00 am – all partners/senior managers/managers sat in a big conference room. The process starts with each counselor going over the evaluations of their counselees. The responsibility of counselors was to summarize his/her counselee’s evaluations and suggested an overall rating for his/her counselee. If any partner/senior manager/manager has worked with the staff/senior, he/she jumped in and talked about his/hers strengths and development needs. This part of the process was smooth and peaceful.
10:00 am – after the first round of discussion, all staff/seniors were assigned an overall rating from on a scale of 1-5 (1 being “outstanding” and 5 being “poor”). An HR partner or representative did the stats, and announced: “there are a total of 100 staff/seniors, 15 of them are 1, 30 of them are 2, and 50 of them are 3, and 5 of them are 4. This is good, however, based on the firm’s standard or average, we would like to see less than 5 % of 1, 10% of 2 and the majority of them should be 3. Let’s go over each 1 and 2 and make sure they are really 1 and 2.” So here we go. Put your boxing gloves on everyone because the fun part starts now… Partners/senior managers/managers started attacking the staff/seniors who they never worked with, and you would hear comments like:
– XYZ did something 3 years ago and the client did not like it. [Does the term “period under review” mean anything to you? You’re an auditor!]
– I don’t understand why GTH can be a 2, because compare to JUK I worked with, GTH can only be a 3, even I though never worked with GTH before
– UJI did not do any extra-curricular activities outside the firm so I don’t think he deserves a 1, unlike TFR.
– His utilization is 125% so maybe he needs to work on his work-life balance. We want our staff to work smart, not hard.
– It is ok we give him/her a 3 even though all his/her evaluations received were all 2s. [Note: a month later one of such case was let go from the firm…]
– She took 3 months medical leave so I don’t think we can give him a 2 for her performance throughout the year.
– I never worked with FRT before, but whenever I saw him in the office, he did not seem to know what he was doing. He maybe very good, but I just don’t think he is a 2.
– It is ok to bring down his rating to 3 this year because it will push him to work harder next year and we will be able to show that he made progress during the next round.
4 pm – The HR partner/personnel redid the stats and announced: “now we have 5 people with a rating of 1, 10 people 2, 80 people 3, and 5 people 4. It looks better. However, based on what I just heard, I want to challenge some of 3s here. They sound like 4 to me. Let’s go over some of them”. And here we go again. It’s boxing gloves on again and back in the ring. Anything goes.
6 pm – The HR partner/personal redid the stats and announced: “We have 5 people 1, 10 people 2, 75 people 3, and 10 people 4. I think we are being very fair to all our staff. Thank you everyone. We did an excellent job today.”
2) The year end evaluation will be held next month. Good luck to all the Deloitte soldiers. Keep on marching because your leaders really know what they want and know what is best for you…
Some things come with age… experience counts for something and it is real and tangible and valuable. There are things that cannot be taught – that you simply have to live through. Don’t expect all things to come to you right away, you have to earn it.
Those 3 negative review scenarios I’ve described, I’ve seen or personally experienced at least half, and occurred within less than 10% of your entire working experience.
The review process you’ve illustrated was not available to me or others. From what I experienced, there was no person to “push back,” to investigate, or ask me or others what happened. It wasn’t uncommon for the manager/sr mgr to be in the back pocket of the partner.
Wow! This is great. I will be getting in touch with him. He’s been really sticking it to them and he has the street cred to do it. Thanks for the link.
@ 70 – what a slam! So true too. I have worked for some sleezy AA partners, and in my opinion, it was good thing that the firm went down. However, most of them just went to another big 4 (like Deloitte) and kept doing what they were doing before.
@fm – let us know what you find out. Maybe you can have him do a guest post on your blog. How interesting that he is a professor at the University of Texas. The Enron/Anderson scandal occurred in Texas (Bush country), and the University of Texas has one of the top accounting programs in the country and is a huge feeder to the Texas accounting firms. Perhaps it explains why he posted his blog on the Santa Clara site (where it appears that he is a visiting professor).
Anon @ 66 — yes, that is the most common experience throughout the firms, and certainly is NOT confined to Deloitte.
You have accurately described what I have experienced over and over. Note the focus on negative attributes, and the ability of influential people in the room to sway the performance ranking. Anybody who does not have a strong advocate in the process is going to suffer. More than half the battle is (a) identifying your advocate, (b) identifying what taling points need to be advocated, and (c) prepping the advocate, including firing-up the advocate to get enthusiastic on your behalf and sticking to the talking points during the boxing matches in the room.
Again: the firms need to learn that assigning somebody a three who has received straight ‘2’s’, or denying somebody a promotion who has met all the written criteria for promotion, simply hands the plaintiffs’ attorneys a very nice smoking gun. Any attorney worth his/her salt should just get somebody like you or me, or countless others, on the witness stand (under oath) and ask us to describe the performance review process from start to finish, just as you did in your post.
Do some discovery and show that the final ranking had no logical relationship to the underlying performance information. (Or to put it another way, show that the conclusion was not supported by evidence.) Obtain from HR the firmwide direction on the “expected” distribution of the rankings, and show the nice fit between the final outcomes and the expected distribution. Put a senior HR person on the stand and ask how the firmwide distribution was developed. Follow up and ask what happened to any market or practice that did not reasonably conform to the expected distribution.
In my opinion, it would be game over for the defendants. But then, I’m not an attorney, so what do I know?
Follow up to 70’s post, check out Bill Black’s interview and his comments on fraud and liar’s loans.
@66 — the process is not at fault. If the people in the room are not constructive or on point then your grip is with the people and the criteria they are using. Further, the partner managing the meeting needs to allow some banter, but to really channel it in the right/constructive direction. Our process is similar, only the comments are not all negative and they are more constructive. I suggest you focus on the integrity of the people you are working with rather than blame the process itself.
As for review period — yes, in our process we sometimes look back further… in these cases it is to ask if the trend has improved or if the behaviors have continued. We also look forward — where do you envision this person sits in 5 years… is he/she a leader of the practice? While it is a review period, the slate is not wiped clean each year — and that is necessary to the process.
The focus on negative comments Tenacious mentions — again, that is about the people not the process. It is not what I experience. I experience a balance of positive and negative… and very few issues like what they wear to work and whether they brushed their teeth. I have had to deal with a body odor problem that was so bad co-workers were getting sick to their stomach. I talked to the staff member — the problem is fixed. It was relevant to review — because it was impacting performance. Managers were indicating they would not use this person because they could not be in proximity to him/her. Trust me — it was a major body odor problem.
@76, I stated what I observed. In my opinion, I would say that the meeting should be done in 2 hours. The first 2 hours was very constructive…
The rating system is tied directly to salary increase for the following year. For example, 1 rated would get 8% raise, 2 would get 6%, 3 would get 4% and 4 will get no raise. The whole purpose of an evaluation meeting is to make sure that the total amount of the raise = to firm’s budget. It is all about the money…
So, don’t be too serious about the review process. If you need constructive feedbacks, the partners or managers you worked with could communicate them to you directly. There is NO NEED for a stupid evaluation like this. Think about this, why would partners have a problem to rate all their staff 1 or 2 if this wasn’t about money…?
@70 – after AA went down KPMG hired many of their employees. At least in some practices KPMG realized that the AA people had little to no integrity, honesty and all that rot. Within a couple years, our practice sold off part of the group to a boutique. While not true nationwide — what this meant was simple… all the AA people left KPMG… we could not tolerate them and we kicked them out. They were slime — but I a monly speaking of the ones I worked with… it made me wonder if the AA culture was all slime though. KPMG/US employes around 20,000 people — there must be some slime in there too… just the law of averages. But is it a culture of slime? I am not so sure. If it is — that slime is in the audit practice IMHO.
@77-I agree that the process is about money, simply because there is only so much to divide up. I do not believe at KPMG the rating (which is based on a 9-box system (don’t ask me to explain – too convoluted) is used directly to compute the raise… and definitely not the promotion. While we use 9 ratings, they are categoized into 3 buckets – NI=needs improvement, SP=strong performer, EP=exceptional performer. As for the 9 thing — each of the 3 buckets has 3 sub-buckets kind of — to indicate if you are better at one thing over another. But for now – let’s consider only the 3 ratings. People who are SP can and do get promoted (it has happened to me and I know it has happened to several others). There is no requirement that you must be an EP to get promoted. I believe the salary decision is similar… although I must admit that this decision lies entirely within the office managing partner’s domain and maybe he/she discusses it nationally. But I believe that within each title, rating category etc, the partner ranks people. I believe my partner then looks at where each person’s salary is as compared to the rankings. Then I believe the next step is to say should person A make more or less than person B — which ultimately means that the ratings and such over time matter. And then the salaries are adjusted to put people more in-line with the ranking. So if person A is making a lot because historical performance reviews weren’t really on target — or say the salary at hire was higher than performance supports, and person B is low because of some other reason, the lower person may be an SP and get a larger raise than some other EP person who was in the range of where they should be anyway. In this way the salaries are adjusted in order to bring people in line with overall ranking rather than taking the salary they make as a given and adding an increase simply based on the rating. It allows for salary correction – not just salary increases without correcting over/under payed individuals.
Example, when you interview, you look good on paper. So they offer you a sr staff member position at $110K. After 1-2 years they realize you weren’t as good as you looked on that paper, but you are good. You will get SP ratings, maybe even EP and maybe even a promotion — but you will not get large raises until your rating and the salary are in allignment.
FYI – I am not intending any acusations – just comparing experiences and their merits. The more I hear from the D&T people, the more I believe that is not the B4 to work at (unless the people posting are simply a biased set). The culture seems to be flawed – and the people seem to be nasty. As for meeting length — we could not go through 40+ people in 2 hours. This year the meeting ran from 10am to after 7pm. But we also discuss things like how do we measure people, before we even start discussing people.
AA people are slime! love that term..where do you think all the AA folks are now at? Deloitte – guess what about the culture then? i think you are smart to figure that one out right? lay off all AA folks and D will be a better place to be at….
@68 – this is @62… maybe I have just been lucky. I hope you can find a place where you do have that person to manage your career development. I do think that we can each do some things to make it happen for ourselves though. I have pushed back at my own manager/partner when he/she is not doing what i feel is right by me. In some cases I was being immature and they helped me to grow up, in other cases I was successful at getting them to see things differently.
A recent breakthrough for me in fact — one of our senior managers really doesn’t like me, and during the “big pow wow” each year this person gives me scathing reviews about pretty irrelevant things. But this year we have worked together (first year we have done that). At mid-year I really pushed back at this senior manager. Said things like I know you do not support me or respect me. But I offered that I wanted to remedy the situation and asked the senior manager to decide then and there if she wanted to make it work. Once I gained buy in that we were going to put the historical dislike and distrust behind us — we started working together really well. No – it isn’t perfect, but at least it is positive. And I have since learned that during the pow-wow, she actually supported me this year.
My advice — if you approach the discussion constructively you can push back at (even blast — and I did blast this senior manager — the language I used here was much softer than the real conversation). And you can succeed at that. You cannot do this all the time, and you have to have solutions to implement — and you have to deliver. But you can step up and do this for yourself at times.
81 – Thanks. Yeah, sometimes I wonder if it’s just my crazy luck, but I’ve managed to keep in touch with a colleague or two from every place. In my current place, it’s been sad and frustrating, b/c the few people who’ve been guiding or mentoring me, have either left or been let go (but that I’ve also kept in touch with) I haven’t been re-assigned to anybody, but have been cautiously tiptoeing around in this whack-a-mole environment. How much longer my current company can keep it together is also a big question, as business is not great.
Thanks for putting your reply to my post in an actual article as I hadn’t planned on going back to check for any more replies.
You may be disgusted by my comments but you are confused. The point of any business is to make money and the Firms are no different. I still don’t see any real actionable items in your post for how to fix all of the alleged problems you proclaim there to be. I see a lot of long term vision for a Utopian world where no one gets laid off and partners work for free out of the goodness of there hearts but I don’t see much in your recommendations that has any real meat to it. Really you should probably go work on the Starship Enterprise in a world where everyone works for the betterment of mankind and there is no currency. The rest of us live in the real world where people want to make money.
I can only speak to the Firm that I work for when I say that I think our commitment to ethics far exceeds any company I have ever seen. It is part of the culture. It is in the approach to our work, the quality processes, the training, the emails, etc.. I don’t think we are perfect but I think we make less mistakes than most companies whether it be the audit findings or how we let people go or whatever the case may be.
So while I will agree with you that the Big4 like ALL companies and organizations should always strive to do better — I take offense to your general tone that would seem to indicate the Firms are all evil and the rest of the world is doing a much better job at what they do. If you took a look outside of these 4 companies and what they do in one specific industry you would realize things are not so bad. I would love to hear from you examples of companies or industries that you think are doing a really good job at what they do.
I am not confused. Whether you choose to acknowledge it or not, the Firms are absolutely different than “any other business.” They are regulated and have an obligation and responsibility, both legal and ethical, that extends beyond and supersedes the goal of their organization as a “business”. It is what it is. The problem is they have been allowed to forget that. For what purpose? So we can have them continue to produce worthless, non-actionable, valueless audit opinions?
Which firm do you work for? Name it and I can show you numerous recent examples for any of the top seven in the US that demonstrate disdain and disregard for both ethical and legal requirements. Try me.
You take offense? Quite a personal reaction for someone who chooses to be anonymous. I can only indulge that self-centered emotion to a certain extent.
I am still working on the next post in the series that will speak to the operational and business development issues and suggestions. But remember, it’s all done with an element of wishful thinking. The model itself is broken and what I might suggest are only band aids on a body with both broken arms and broken legs
In the meantime, so many other stories to keep up on. Today the Indian FBI issued a statement that the PwC auditors were complicit in the Satyam fraud. And the lawsuits against the others related to Madoff and other frauds keep getting filed. I have no chance of running out of things to write about.
@J — you are right… FM is very idealistic. She has points worth consideration, but I do not see any solutions. She points out the issues but doesn’t really have a solution. The only thing anyone seems to propose is having auditing be a gov’t responsibility.
You guys do know that there was a point in time when audit firms did focus on their primary customer — the shareholders, right? There is nothing idealistic in suggesting that the firms operate in the way it conducted business before – the right way…before self-interests got in the way of leaderships’ true purpose (ensuring the trust of the public). If you can come up with solutions of your own, we’d all like to know them (unless you think the failed partnership model is fine as is).
@87 – I haven’t come up with solutions on my own either. I merely suggest that this is idealistic and I’d like to see a solution oriented conversation rather than just complaining. I am not convinced that the existing model has completely failed. I wonder about the history you mention – and I admit that I have no knowledge in this area. But it makes no sense that people were better people back then, or was the model different? So, if as you suggest things were right in the past (as opposed to we are engaging in revisionist history – romanticizing the past as is commonly done). Then I suggest the way to the solution is to identify what changed. So I ask (don’t read any snotty tone of voice – I am honestly asking)… how were things right and what changed to make them wrong? If we can identify that then we can fix the future. And if I have missed something in the blogs – don’t yell at me to read something thoroughly… I have read a lot of these blogs and may have missed it, or maybe it was unclear due to all the emotion and anger and sarcasm and such that taints the discussion.
Why does it make no sense? Look at the crime committed today versus 10, 20, 30 years ago. Look at Sept 11th, the D.C. sniper, wipe out of the financial services industry. Someone said that the failure of AIG cost more than the whole S&L crisis.
great word usage. are you saying that we should bury the problem, rather than understand what cause the problem? to understand the problem would be (in your eyes) complaining. But wait, has of the culprits actually admitted to a problem?
hmmm … yes, when we (the innocent) get raped, we’re emotional, angry and sarcastic. I would suppose that you would have us believe that the rapist is “solution oriented.”?
“I am not convinced that the existing model has completely failed.” What would it take to convince you that the existing model had completely failed?
Would it take legal settlement after legal settlement, with more (and bigger) litigation pending? Would it take audit partners jailed by more than one country? How about being prohibited from accepting new SEC audit clients for 6 months as a penalty for obvious independence violations? How about a senior leadership partner who (allegedly) not only violated independence standards, but actively participated in actual insider trading? How about abusive tax shelter sales? How about (alleged) spoliation of evidence during discovery proceedings?
Would it take demonstrably poor management decision-making, without any accountability whatsoever? Would it take a published analysis and conclusion by an independent party? How about a oligolopistic situation that quickly shrank — i.e., the size of the oligolopy shrank from 8 to 4 over a period of roughly 20 years, due at least in part to forced mergers and other litigation-related matters (e.g., Andersen)? What more, or other, evidence are you looking for?
Seriously, what evidentiary standard are you using? Because from my perspective, I cam completely convinced beyond a scintilla of doubt that the existing model has completely failed, and needs to be thrown out like yesterday’s bath water.
And for those of you who say that “I do not see any solutions” coming from Fran, that can only be because you are not reading the blog posts. She has posted at least one serious reform solution, in addition to this series of “what I’d do” posts.
88 – Their conviction was later overturned, but they’re never coming back – what about Arthur Andersen as an example of the existing business model that’s failed?
I think one thing that’s changed in people since back then is greed – greed in publicly traded companies’ management, greed in public accounting firms’ partners. I don’t know how we can fix greed.
From page 72: “In June 2002, just two months after Andersen was convicted … Harvey Kapnick died unexpectedly at age 77. His son commented about his father: ‘He had long believed that the dilution of standards at his beloved firm could be traced to the rise of auditor-salesmen and the poisoning effect its drive for profits had on Andersen’s famous independence.'”
For instance this part: “In the end, it was all about the bucks. Yes, performance reviews included many factors, but no one paid attention to them. Either you brought in the money or you wouldn’t be around for too long. … The four cornerstones of success at Arthur Andersen — People, Management, Quality, Thought Leadership, and Financial Peformance — were referred to colloquially as ‘three pebbles and a boulder.’ The boulder was financial performance. The rest, it seemed, was a joke.” (page 195)
I could post more excerpts that would be exactly on point regarding your question, “what about Arthur Andersen [would be] an example of the existing business model that’s failed?” but instead I suggest you find either of those two books on Amazon, buy them, and read them for yourself. I believe you will be more than satisfied by the answer(s) you find therein.
I don’t think it is perfect either (nothing/nobody is..). But like I have mentioned, the portrayal on this site seems to assign a higher than reasonable standard of expectations that no company could live up to.
I have no problem with good ideals being suggested although FM seems to present in a tactical context which doesn’t mesh with the suggestions. When I read these articles this is what it sounds like to me:
“Crime in the city is at a high level. How can we fix his problem? Let’s encourage better family values so children don’t grow up to be criminals! Problem solved!”
The articles read as if the Big4 are in a pattern of shredding documents and helping clients commit fraud. In the spectrum of doing a very good job on one end, to being evil on the other, the entire site seems to point to evil but I think the needle is closer to the other end. That is just my opinion though. The sky is not falling despite what Chicken Little is writing about on any given day.
I’ll reiterate I don’t think anybody or any company is perfect. I also think the rhetoric used to discuss the problems on this site is not as productive as it could be.
I am sure you will post your stories and I will skim them. I am not going to disclose my employer as I do not want to be out of compliance with our policies on public relations.
@89 – it makes no sense because people are people and human nature hasn’t really changed. You mention many things that are evidence of people being “bad”. What about the way the Chinese were treated building the railroads? What about wiping out the American Indians? What about the Roman and Greek oppression of their constituents? What about the Holocaust? In any time period we can find greedy and ruthless people. This has not changed and likely never will.
ANSWER: yes,the BIG 4 have to make money,but you and i think them are forgeting the very important aspect of all this—“PUBLIC” ACCOUNTING! These oligopolies audit 90% of all Global Public corporations! They are failing at it because the focus is on $$$$ and not the “SHAREHOLDERS of public companies”,hence audit opinions that now mean nothing.The model clearly broken.
What would you say if your local Electric Utility turned your power on/off because that “MADE THEM MORE MONEY”.You would be livid,and demand why you were not getting uninterupted power.
SAME WITH BIG 4 AUDIT-the firms are not just plain-vanilla organisations out to make money(thats the role of the consulting arms)…there is a PUBLIC aspect to this-by certifying 90% of global public companies,the Big 4 firms have a very important role to play in the efficient functioning of global capital markets!!This is not a joke!
SOLUTION: Perhaps more Regulation/Govt Intervention(the evil R&G yes, yes..sorry),a bunch of stand-alone audit firms(maybe the BIG 16,highly regulated,more competition,uncapped liabilities and no more “too big to fail” syndrome.
The majority of people are not faulting the firms layoffs,the issue is the MANNER in which it is being done:If you want to cut the #’s,”tell people,hey we will cut” and do it! Dont spin people that all is well and then can them the next week-that is why people are bitter.Nobody is asking for anything,just a little RESPECT for people who sometimes work 18hrs a day/7days a week.
@89 – you are funny. What about the greed of the British monarchy and the Roman empire. Greed is not a new concept.
As for the rest – since you liken it all to rape let’s go with that. If a person alleges rape, is it a fact? I suggest that both the accuser and the accused have the right to a fair trial. You, my friend, have tried and convicted based on your personal experience alone. I cannot from your post determine if you are correct and you have been harmed, or if you are simply a poor employee. I can say that if you speak in these terms others will perceive you in ways you really do not want.
So, let’s identify the problem… it seems to me fm has done that — that the firms do not serve the shareholders because the economic model serves the wrong people. Greed is not the problem, it is a vehicle to use to elicit the proper behaviors — and in fm’s opinion it is not directed in the right place.
solutions — they need to reward for the proper behavior — so how do we reward for serving the public good (shareholders) yet at the same time have a viable business model? That is the question.
Sorry — but your anger is pretty irrelevant and not remotely useful. It is yours, and writing it to this blog is merely a cry for validation. I cannot validate nor condemn your situation on a blog… that you need to do through real live friends.
@97, yes, go with the it was your poor attitude line of defense. Do they teach you that at partner school?
Rape, fraud, deceit, etc. Use whatever words you like. Bottom line is that trust was betrayed to further someone’s gain.
@J. The model of Big4s as money making machine is not failed, not yet. But Big4s as responsible independent auditors have failed miserably.
This is NOT just an issue of “not being perfect”. There is a giant hole on the wall. Can you see it?
“The articles read as if the Big4 are in a pattern of shredding documents and helping clients commit fraud.” No, FM did not say anything close to that. You said it. FM just made a simple point:
“The auditor’s client is the shareholder and investor in the company, not the company’s management.” Is this statement just a common sense? If you even have problem to take that point, my friend, it is time to change your career.
“The rest of us live in the real world where people want to make money”. Yes, but I don’t understand why being a good auditor would stop people making money. The problem here is that big4 made a lot, a lot, a lot of money by doing a very very shitty job.
I am glad that you did not disclose the name of your firm. Otherwise, your comments would be very bad PR for them.
The sky will fall, killing all greedy ones, despite what Chicken Little is writing about on any given day.
There appears to be a large selection bias on this website. Instead of looking at just the audit failures that have occurred we should also look at all the audits that are done correctly every year of the 10,000 public companies in the United States. In 2004 in the British Accounting Review Jere Francis’s article “What do we know about audit quality” looked at many of the issues we are discussing on this board. She found that audit failure accounted for far less than 1% of all all audits done in a given year and cost less than .1% of a company’s sales. Also, Francis and Wilson 1988 found that audit failures were more likely to occur in smaller firms than in larger firms. Does this mean that a Big 4 audit is automatically better than a smaller firm? No, but Big 4 firms on average have less audit failures than smaller firms. Additionally, the United States is the only country where a single client can bankrupt an entire firm an all of its partners. This severe litigation does not seem to improve audit quality as other nations such as Canada and the UK have a similar amount of audit failure as the United States.
So if audit failures are relatively rare and inexpensive do we need to fix the process and can we? Francis believes that no regulation could make audit failures more infrequent but a change of incentives for audit partners could have prevented some high profile cases from occurring. First, audit partners should be compensated more equally so that those that those that bring in sales do not get rewarded excessively for risk taking while the rest of the firm bears all of his or her risk. Additionally, partners should be paid more equally as was done in the past because of the required partner rotation after 5 years. The rotation means that partners share each others work more than they did in the past which means they should all share in compensation. Some other firms of internal monitoring could be used to reward partners so that free riding does not occur. However she does not suggest what this measure would be.
If an audit failure rate of less than 1% is too high for you are free to have that opinion. I look forward to hearing people’s responses to these facts.
If there’s a selection bias in the writing it’s because I write the blog and I get to choose what I write about. Me , myself, and I. As I’ve said a million times before, including in my disclaimer on the “About” page, I write about what interests me and what I know. What I know happens to interest me and to be interesting to quite a few more people than I ever imagined.
If there’s a selection bias in the readership, well, that’s as it should be. I don’t need no stinkin’ namby-pamby, goody-two-shoes, Big 4 defenders that live life with their head down and their eyes closed. Like the work, like the folks you work with, even like your clients, but don’t like those that exploit you and don’t like those that are allowing rogues, criminals, and idiots to cheat your family out of their future.
Yes, the audit firms are supposed to play a role in the capitalist system: Provide audit opinions that assure publicly available financial information is complete, valid, and prepared according to applicable standards. These audit opinions are supposed to protect shareholders from dependence on incomplete, inaccurate, and invalid information when making their investment decisions. As another commenter said earlier: They’re getting paid while doing a very crappy job of it.
Citing studies from 1988 and 2004 about “audit failure” is irrelevant. Have you counted the number of settlements that each firm has paid and the amount that is pending? You can’t you say? Why? Because the firms don’t disclose those numbers. I’m the only one who’s not a regulator or the Treasury or the firms themselves counting them up and keeping any kind of tally and it kills them.
The litigation in the US is not severe enough. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (PSLRA) said that investors cannot proceed with a case unless they already have facts in-hand that strongly suggest a deliberate fraud. Prior to the PSLRA, a case could proceed with minimal evidence and use pre-trial discovery to search for more. Now, you need such evidence just to begin, which may be difficult to obtain. So the cases that do proceed against auditors have been the strongest ones and there have been lots and lots. That were settled. Never went to trial. No one can say that they were without merit because first they passed the stricter tests post-PSLRA and second the auditors are unwilling to fight them on the merits.
I agree that what you write about is interesting that’s why I am here now and why I read your posts on a daily basis. I also agree that those partners that exploit employees and act criminally should not be defended. However, I do believe that partners that act criminally do so because the firm’s incentive structures are not perfectly aligned with the firm as a whole. The pressure to bring in sales means that partners are encouraged to take on very risky clients that can ultimately ruin an entire firm. One bad client ruined Laventhal Horwath in 1991 and Andersen in the 2000’s. I don’t believe that the Andersen was a bad firm as a whole but the Houston Office was. Krishnan made this argument with pretty convincing evidence in the Journal of Contemporary Accounting Research in 2004.
When it comes to litigation I imagine we will disagree about what is an appropriate amount of risk that audit firms are exposed to. The United States has more lawsuits filed against auditors per year than all other countries in the world combined. However this does not mean that we are getting better audits as audit failure rates are similar around the world. Does this mean that higher risks will get better audits? I don’t know but it appears like you believe this to be the case. Do you have a theory why lower litigation risk abroad does not provide better audit quality? Are partners more honest abroad or are there systems in place that make audits better than what exists in the US.?
Finally, I am not a Big 4 defender in general. Certain firms do preform bad audits and this is a great forum to point out those mistakes. Sometimes it does feel like you generalize one audit failure to mean that an entire firm is corrupt. I feel like that is not a fair assumption to make. I will change my name in the future so that it does not seem so confrontational.
Did you ever read the PCAOB reports? You should, and you should try to get access to the parts they don’t disclose to the public as well. I can tell you about this, if any of these non-disclosure parts leek to the public, you would see the Big4s disappear from the face of earth in a few months.
I don’t know how you define an “audit failure”, but I certainly don’t believe that is less than 1% as you stated. Typically you wont really find out that auditors did a bad job until 1) a client gets in trouble and is being investigated by regulators, 2) you reperformed the audit. My friend, have you ever performed an internal practice review for your firm? I did that every year, and I can tell you, for more than 50% of engagements I reviewed, the quality was bad. What is the biggest problem? There were no thoughts behind those work papers. You could tell the auditors did not put any judgment on what they were doing. They were just rushed through it without truly understanding the client, their business, and it risks. So whose fault it was? The partners. Why? They never set the right tone from the top. THERE IS NO SUCH CLUTURE IN BIG 4 TO ENCOURAGE THEIR STAFF ASKING QUESTIONS. The staffs were treated like machines. It was not a cool thing for them to challenge their managers or partners, of course, the client. They did not get proper training, but got put on the team to “get things done”. The only goal of engagement team was to complete the work under the budget.
Finally, Francine is not bias. She just asked those good questions that we are not allowed to discuss in the firms. Just read the article above, could you imagine any of big 4 partners would say to you that auditor’s client is actually the shareholder and investor in the company, not the company’s management? Of course not….
@98 – no one said you are a poor performer… the statement was that crying foul isn’t good enough… you need to provide some evidence and arguments to support that foul. Otherwise the cry is meaningless to anyone but you and your therapist (which you really seem to need if you do not have one).
@fm — seems you are just as greedy. You write things to incite people so you can get food for thought and more emotionally charged accusations in an effort to promote yourself and your opinion. As you say – it is about you and yourself. What is it really about — finding ways to self promote which will hopefully turn into ways for you to make $$$. Seems you intentionally write things to get an argument going — and you do want those that disagree to join your blogs. You are no more pure than those you criticize… not because you are evil — but cause no one is that pure.
Hey — does this count for the kind of drivel that will get you excited… will this one incite your loyal followers who can’t think for themselves. If so — that is my point. That this kind of language serves no purpose. Just watch the drivel that comes back.
I’m afraid I’ve raised your expectations too high. I am still working on the post which is Part 3 to “What I’d Do..” However, you should be looking to your own firm leadership, regulators, congress, the standard setters, and people with much more influence for “solutions.” My primary focus for the blog is to educate, raise awareness. I will offer “solutions” because I have worked in two Bg 4 firms and other professional services firms and seen what works. But I’m not the one you should be talking to if you’ve got a serious complaint.
Other stories sometimes supersede, such as the Satyam update. And I do have client work. Yes, I have clients and, no, to a previous commenter. I do not make the majority of my income from the blog, although that would be nice given the time I spend on it. I write, speak, and teach/train for others and I am a consultant. So, like others, sometimes real life intrudes on my desire to write all day and night.
@FM – maybe us “stinkin’ namby-pamby, goody-two-shoes, Big 4 defenders ” would take you more seriously if your writing wasn’t formatted similar to hate group propaganda. Your website has the front page look and feel of a newspaper but your articles read like sensationalist alarmism from someone who puts tinfoil on their ceiling to keep the government from brainwashing them with radio waves. Pull your references to old articles outside the body text and stop italicizing and bolding everything like your readers are too dumb to see the point without all the formatting. I can almost see you outside one of our offices with a bullhorn and some birkenstocks.
The system happens to be morally and likely, financially bankrupt. I seriously doubt the long term viability of the partnership system at this point.
It needs to be reformed pretty much no matter what. I think that deep down, the partners themselves probably know this. When you can pay for a stamp of approval that says that we feel that this company has followed GAAP (even when it has not) there is a problem. Sadly, accounting firms themselves are not farsighted enough to see this (or we would never be here), so someone else has to fix it.
This is about 4 oligopoly’s that a re FAILING at their mission and screwing everyone whilst they are at it.
It is OK to be a cheerleader for BIG 4 audit,but if you really LOVE it that much,you would be open to hearing about how the inherent problems can be fixed-the future viability and survival of BIG 4 AUDIT depends on this-the firms can only f**k up that many times,the jig will be up eventually.
Anony @103 — spot on post. It’s not the known audit failures that measure success or failure, but also the unknown ones hidden because of audit process flaws. One of the biggest problems is that the culture actively discourages independent thought and questioning of the status quo.
The Facts @ 102 — I don’t care what an academic article says about Andersen. Was it Duncan, the audit partner? Was it the Houston office acting rogue? Was it the move from a central partnership to decentralized regions/divisions? Was it management overrides of firm risk control processes? Was it an overzealous prosecutor bent on solving a political problem? Was it a judge whose jury instructions were improper?
Doesn’t matter. What does matter is that Andersen is gone, and its employees now scattered to the winds. Once Andersen was the gold standard of independence and objectivity, and now its reputation is tarnished forever. I was in the Big 5 when Andersen imploded, and I remember quite vividly that the leadership of the other firms made it absolutely clear that there should be no gloating or bad-mouthing of Andersen. Why? Because Andersen was not too different from the other firms, and what happened to Andersen could have happened to any of the other firms at any time.
In fact, it could still happen to any of the big accounting firms at any time. There have been few, if any, fundamental changes at the firms since the Andersen implosion. For example, when EY was being sanctioned by the SEC, it employed the same internal and external spin tactics that Andersen used (to similar effect). The same could be said for Deloitte with respect to its “rogue” insider trading senior leadership partner in Chicago, or for PwC’s India or Japan debacles, or for KPMG’s tax shelter litigation, etc…… If this blog has an overriding purpose (and only Fran knows if it does) — it might be to raise awareness that the same fundamental circumstances that took out Andersen still exist today … and the firms are just as vulnerable (if not more so) as they were in 2002.
Birkenstocks are not my style. Today I’m wearing Prada. And a pair of Louboutin patent leather pumps are in my suitcase. And I hardly need a bullhorn. My voice carries.
I’m still working with the format on this new WordPress site. Lots more to learn to make it easier to read and easier for me to review and edit. That’s why the site says Beta. I bold and italicize because, in a long post, I am trying to make sure you see certain points. Many of my readers are not as well versed in the inner workings of the firms and need have points emphasized. I’m gratified that instead of turning folks off, the long posts cause them to stay on the blog longer. Average time on the blog is > hour.
I choose the magazine format because a multifaceted resource is my goal and objective. I have a variety of different sources of information, opinion, and resources for readers. No other format seemed to accommodate that as well. Plus I like the photos, music, and video clips. I like it. And for those who need to have this material made relatively stimulating and entertaining to read, as well as made relevant to their business and personal life, the combination of words and pictures seems to work to capture their attention.
As a Big 4’er myself who can see both the good and bad side of the job, it seems to me that in order to make things better it is all a matter of time:
More time for partners to be involved in all aspects of the audit, especially risk assessments and face time with managers and client staff. Ditto managers with seniors. Ditto seniors with assistants
So, to avoid working 24 hours a day we need more partners and managers to spread the load and allow this coaching and effective review of work to occur…
But, as we all know, time = money so either firms pay more for their audits or senior Big 4 staff get paid less, neither of which is gonna happen IMHO, and which also assumes there are enough capable people to be partners / managers in what is an intellectually demanding job (when done right).
My personal opinion is that partners probably are overpaid – spending so much time trying to mirror the executives of the companies they audit they seem to think they should be paid the same (which is too much also, but that’s another story altogether)
On the other hand, I think audit committees (acting for shareholders i.e. The Client as FM started off) should not be looking for cheap audits, but quality. And another truism is that you get what you pay for Again, in this climate that ain’t gonna happen, but now is the time when audits have to be done right… Cue fee reduction negotiations by audit committees and layoffs by the Big 4 to maintain partner income and resulting lower quality audits right at the time when the capital markets need all the reassurance they can get.
I’m afraid there is no solution, as audit is effectively a public service run under a profit making business model. If it became a true public service and we were all on the government payroll and civil service salaries, I predict a mass exodus and we end up at the same point – overworked / underskilled staff.
Quick question, as I am supposed to be working at a client, not responding to comments today… But this will help me with some other writing I’m doing.
The government (i.e. taxpayers) now owns, both in US and abroad, significant portions of large companies that are important to smooth functioning of the capital markets. (Treasury Secretary G’s and Fed Chairman B’s words, not mine…) And I have proposed that the government, as a start, at least for those investments, should cut out the middle man and audit/monitor these investments directly. (After all, the audit firms that were “on the job” when companies like AIG, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, GM failed are still their auditors. How screwed up is that?)
This proposed move takes such a large chunk of work out of the private sector (Big 4 firms’ audit universe.) And as we have seen, even without this change the audit firms feel that their audit business is declining so they have to cut people to save their profits… And there are now quite a few audit and accounting professionals already looking for a new job and more to come…
Exactly where would all the “good” people work instead, if not for the government? Don’t you see the shift from private firm auditing to auditing on behalf of the taxpayer? Do you really think you will have a choice of where to work if this shift continues?
Well, I think it would be a brave partner who would leave his / her position in a Big 4 to be at the behest of a democratically elected government which is liable to change it’s mind on such issues on a whim…
I suppose that it could be forced, by passing laws that required public auditors to do this work (in the UK we have the National Audit Office which does a really good job on checking up on government spending from what I read – not sure if there is a US equivalent) who could be given the budget to lure away Big 4 staff.
However, it would be a huge operation to get all the necessary infrastructure, risk management, quality control, technical support etc etc etc systems up and running, with a risk you would spend a hell of a lot of money creating a Big 5, with the same people and same problems at the end of the day, just under a different roof. The public sector (rightly or wrongly) doesn’t have the best reputation for managing change, and everyone knows how expensive these things are…
For the Big 4 employees who don’t like the thought of working under a new regime, there is always the option of leaving practice altogether and getting a real job in the real productive economy (or what’s left of it) – with the experience you get at Big 4, I think any good senior / manager / partner would have very little trouble getting alternative employment, and for those of us below partner level, probably for at least the same money…
Unless you just go the whole hog and nationalise each of the Big 4, I don’t see practically how this could work. As I said earlier, there is a fundamental mismatch between the public sector service and private sector profit motive in auditing which makes this an intractible problem – and its not just in audit – think healthcare, public transport, public libraries – all areas which have become a disaster area when the profit motive has been introduced, in my country at least.
Up to this point, I’ve been an unapologetic capitalist, but if the only response to terrible leadership and treatment of the lower ranks in the B4 is to say, “it’s a business, deal with it,” I hereby proudly declare myself a commie. I’d like to think displaying a little humanity is not mutually exclusive to running a business.
I can understand the impulse to defend your firm(s), and it’s a good impulse if you occasionally take off the blinders and see the blunders being made. Big picture, a lot of what’s happening is panic, and does more harm to the respective firms’ image to the generation of professionals currently entering the workforce. They’re capitalists, too. But I suspect many talented people will look elsewhere to make their mark, and we’ll be worse off for our short-term thinking.
@110 – some of us do read it exactly for the reason of trying to learn about how people think and how they grow up… including themselves and including FM. As FM said herself — this blog is all about her. @J in @108 had it right.
Yes we do have a comparable office to National Audit Office, the General Accounting Office. There are also Inspector Generals for each department that have some audit responsibility but as we have seen with the SEC, usually only spring into action when they have to criminally investigate something.
My point about working in the public sector is that there really isn’t a choice and may soon be no choice, even for partners. Two firms here, Deloitte and EY are cutting them and the others demoting them or cutting their draw. The opportunity cost of “leaving” may be diminished soon and is already nonexistent for some.
The infrastructure to audit/monitor government and taxpayer investments is already in place. Just needs to scale, which I admit may be harder than it looks. But the existing regulatory, inspecting and auditing organizations need to to start hiring folks out of school and setting up the infrastructure to train them. The Big 4 is not going to be doing much spoon feeding recruits to them anymore.
@116 — I believe that the capitalism argument is not that drastic. I believe we all understand there are deficiencies in the B4 whether we defend them or attack them. I have been a defender on this blog — but I have plenty of gripes about the work environment. I am just not convinced that the scathing attacks in this blog are generally constructive or even appropriate.
So let’s talk about what doesn’t work. There is a culture of hierarchy to the point of disrespect (at times). People gain respect simply by the title they have and not by the work they do or the value they add. People do not work well in teams because they feel the hierarchy is what matters and not good teaming in which there is upward/downward/sideways and inside out communication — in which all team members are valued. I have created a very different team (not audit) where we do those things. I empower the junior staff to take ownership and even ask them to manage me — by giving me status, bringing the appropriate issues to me and knowing that I am juggling 10 jobs whereas they are juggling 1-2. I have them giving a shout out to each other before they go to me… and problem solving amongst themselves. I hold regular brainstorming meetings, I hold them responsible to QA each other first and then I QA — and we hold peer review meetings. But, I feel like this team is an island at the B4.
What else doesn’t work — the way they schedule people — asssign them to jobs. It is totally dysfunctional. Also, the recognition procedures are out of whack. We get extra bonuses sometimes — but they are not given out based on consistent criteria. People who worked a ton of hours but F’ed up the job may get the bonus $ just cause of the hours. People who work a lot of hours on 1 job may get it, but do that across 5 jobs consistently and no one job thinks you are a superstar. Managers focus on engagements rather than a team that can be spread across many jobs. Managers are so shortsighted to their engagement that the practice development is staggeringly deficient.
All that said — I cannot blast the B4 for raping and abusing people (yet I haven’t gotten home before 11 pm for weeks and also had to work the weekend)… it doesn’t happen all the time like this. The excessive hours are not because people were laid off — no one in my practice and office was laid off — and we are crazy busy with work… no end in sight. That is a good thing right now — if that gives me and my teamjob security… abuse away..
Some people here are trying to get constructive and look at solutions… I think we should all try to go there now — let’s let go of the emotion and get constructive.
With your approach and attitude, there would be no audits done as no audit firms would exist because you would never retain a client. If one firm acted as you suggest and the other Big 4 didn’t, the firm that acted as such would have no business at all.
I find all this bashing on the Big 4 intriguing, especially related to AIG. Did PwC make the decisions to enter a boatload of credit default swaps? No. Does PwC run the risk management of AIG? No. Are there risk factors in 10-K’s that investors can read? Yes. Auditors only make sure the financial statements are not materially misstated and that the disclosures meet the minimum requirements of the SEC. Stop pretending PwC ran the business transactions of AIG or had any responsibility for telling them not to enter certain transactions. If there wasn’t enough info for investors, blame the SEC for not having rigorous disclosure requirements.
Why is it so shocking that the Big 4 is still the same on AIG, Fannie Mae, etc…(although I think there actually have been switches with Fannie/Freddie)? These weren’t botched audits. You act like PwC, EY, DT, KPMG were supposed to issue press releases on these companies with negative news. Management is responsible for disclosing key business items, auditors just make sure they meet the SEC requirements.
The layout on the front page is decent. My gripe is more with the style of writing — it reminds of 9/11 truthers and emails that claim Obama is secretly a Muslim terrorist.
If you have noticed I have garnered some support among your commenters. I think if you took a more serious tone in your writing the big4 defenders would take you more seriously. I put you closer to a 9/11 Truth website than the New York Times I think playing a little more to the middle would actually generate *more* support for your cause rather than less.
Fortunately I am not an accountant or an auditor or I wouldn’t even be able to afford to type out the word Prada.
That’s pretty funny. This is a blog… My blog. Not the New York Times. It’s more or less an open forum, but a mediated one, and I am the mediator.
Your commentary, any commentary, is at my pleasure. I appreciate constructive discussion of the issues I’m presenting, pro and con, and constructive critique of how I can make the information clearer and more complete. I also like to hear about other issues and stories that readers would like me to write about. Many email or call me off line to give feedback. Actually, many more than comment do so, if you can imagine. The feedback comes from all kinds of people. Most who contact me off line are at senior levels in the firms, industry, journalists, and law firms. They are not comfortable commenting. So actually the commenters are a skewed set of either the fearless or those that believe themselves immunized from any retribution. A few are independent enough to sign their name. Those who choose or have to remain anonymous, even off line, are at a disadvantage in my mind. I can’t judge age, experience, perspective, agenda, etc even though all of those things about me are fully on display for you.
My style of writing, and the point of view, won’t be changing. Not by a long shot. I’m not interested in the least convincing Big 4 defenders to “take me seriously.” Perhaps you should ask the Financial Times, the Wall Street Journal, Compliance Week, and all the others who’ve linked to me if they think my writing sounds like a “9/11 truther” or anti-Obama rant?
You are welcome to start your own blog with a tone you feel is appropriate to the subject matter. Let me know when you do.
This is a disparity between your comment and presence of this site. If you didn’t care about swaying opinion, you wouldn’t spend time developing this site, which is clearly a major time investment.
I don’t have time to blog and I don’t care that much about the topic. I actually only added this to my RSS feed to use a second source to confirm any layoff rumors that come up. There hasn’t been much content like that lately (perhaps since that is not the intent of the blog) so perhaps I will unsubscribe.
I wouldn’t expect you to change your point of view. But I think my advice to play more to the middle would generate more readers and productive conversations about the topics you are clearly passionate about.
Do you have a post that explain what you think the responsibility of the Big4 is. One of your articles seems to indicate they are responsible for the financial meltdown. Not being an accountant myself I thought their job was to certify the financial statements were accurate to published standards, and not to advise companies how to run their businesses.
Maybe you were not aware that there was an auditor switch with Fannie Mae because Fannie Mae’s shareholders are suing KPMG and KPMG is suing Fannie Mae over its audit?
I do care about educating and raising awareness of the role and responsibilities of the audit industry in the financial system, the capitalist system. It’s an underreported topic unless there’s a crisis or big lawsuit. I’m happy with the readership, both in depth and breadth. I will probably hit 1,000,000 page views in the next month or so.
I don’t have a post, that I can recall, that lays it all out in a nice neat package. That’s why there’s over 700 posts and why I’ve been writing for more than two years with no end in sight and no problem finding examples that illustrate my perspective. It’s a complex subject and a long discussion, which is why my original objective was only to build up an audience for such a book. But if you’re tired of my voice, look at this post and try some of the other linked-to authors. I’m not alone in my opinions.
As far a swaying opinion, I have few ways to measure that. I can measure impact in terms of how many read the blog, what kind of people read the blog, how involved they are, and what kind of feedback I get. But that’s a measurement of awareness and understanding of my point of view and the information I present, not of whether I have changed their hearts and minds. As an accountant and auditor, a CPA, I do what can be measured. It’s ingrained.
I appreciate your thoughts and hope you keep reading. I’ve written so much about the layoffs, it’s starting to feel repetitive to me. The cuts continue and I did not set out to focus on staffing issues alone. It happened and it provides a prime example of the mismanagement for the firms on so many levels. And it’s the issue many readers are interested in right now, since it hits them close to home. But the issues are bigger than any particular staffing action in any firm. Those kinds of short-term, reactive measures will continue if the larger issues are not understood and addressed constructively.
I’m a Gemini. I’m an over-communicator. A blog, ideally is a conversation, not a one-sided lecture. That’s why all the comments are interesting and gratifying to me. I just wish some commenters would read the older posts. I seem to have to keep repeating… Oh well…
Dear FM: My comment was directed to J. I get a kick out people defending the indefenisble (such as the Big 4’s way of conducting “business” these days).
You are doing a great job here…or rather, you have provided a mechanism to expose the underbelly of the big 4 more specifically of deloitte partners, managers/senior managers who until now discreetly went about their nasty business with people not figuring out what happened and why…now we are all aware and can see through those pathetic folks….
“Fortunately I am not an accountant or an auditor or I wouldn’t even be able to afford to type out the word Prada.”
“Do you have a post that explain what you think the responsibility of the Big4 is. One of your articles seems to indicate they are responsible for the financial meltdown. Not being an accountant myself I thought their job was to certify the financial statements were accurate to published standards, and not to advise companies how to run their businesses.”
Re: While it is true that auditors are not there to advise companies on how to run their business, my understanding is that auditors issue a going concern statement. In theory, that should involve some analysis of a company’s risky activities. It seems logical to assume that since auditors by principle should be professionally skeptical and that auditors are responsible for going concern, the financial crisis is well within the scope of their jurisdiction. Correct me if i’m wrong.
I don’t know if the audit model is broken, but at the very least, it’s damaged. I’m sure this has been discussed, but when an auditor becomes dependent financially on a client to remain solvent and pay its fees, how can true independence exist? How reluctant would a firm be to issue a qualified opinon? Isn’t that almost like shooting your revenue pipeline? Sure, you can argue that firms won’t take on excessive risk for reward. But short-term thinking and greed takes over in some instances.
Correct – in the short term mistakes are often made for the sake of immeidate cash/revenue. In the long run protecting one’s reputation will generate a stable and profittable business. I think you have struck another point that adds to the only major comment this post has really produced… the point being that the people paying the bills are not the true client and that this compromises independence. If you add that point to the fact that short term thinking (which is more likely in financial downturns) results in short term decision-making (i.e., not producing the quality work that will maintain your reputation)… then you might have the basis of the “broken model”. This combination is deadly if placed in the wrong hands. This comment is interesting to me.
I agree. In theory, in the long run protecting one’s reputation will generate stable and profitable business. That’s a line the firm keep throwing out there. There’s still that inherent risk that partners will ignore it. My limited understanding of what goes on in the upper levels is that partners are actively encouraged to generate business.
@m – they have to generate business. They cannot live solely by reputation. Reputation helps maintain annuity clients, repeat (yet not so regular) clients, and via word of mouth bring in new clients. But the growth of that model isn’t particularly fast. Most entrepreneurs seek faster growth and growth beyond the stable and sustainable. They want to “expand”. True expansion requires actively generating new business while still maintaining that reputation.
In my experience, keeping the client happy takes precedence over being the bearer of bad news. Not to stop the news totally but at least to water it down significantly…….
In my experience it is my job to listen to the client and to find ways to tell them when they are making mistakes or applying a poor methodology. However, once I’ve said my peace, it is their decision to make and it is time to step back and let them run their business. In my experience the client with any integrity want me to tell them the truth, as I see it, good or bad. That is what makes clients happy — if and only if you are right or at a minimum present valuable insight for them to consider.
@136: I totally agree. However often short term and longer term goals do not align. Long term, hearing and learning from an independent (in a general sense) view of the cold hard truth should make the client stronger, short term it takes on a more personal and troublesome tone for those involved if the news is not good. Telling the client things are getting better while justifying internally why something isn’t a big audit issue (when it should be) is not the right way to do it – but it happens….and just happens to keep the client feeling better about themselves.

NEW YORK and CHICAGO – PricewaterhouseCoopers has entered into a definitive merger agreement where PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Diamond Management & Technology Consultants for $12.50 per share in an all-cash deal.
The transaction represents a premium of 31 percent to Diamond’s closing share price of $9.54 on 23 August, valuing Diamond at around $378 million…
When Mark O’Conner of Monadnock Research asked for my initial reaction to the PwC/Diamond deal, I had to admit I hadn’t thought much about it. Diamond Technology, a true-blue Chicago born and bred company, is small potatoes. Diamond never achieved the billion dollar revenue goals the founder had dreamed about. Mel Bergstein is reputed to be a lot like a lot of former Arthur Andersen partners – an egomaniac. Huron Consulting provides another recent example. Their egos get in the way of realistic business sense and their self-serving grasp frequently exceeds their true market reach.
There are Chicago River tour boat-size stories here about Diamond, which used to be called Diamond Cluster. But I knew more about the firm based on my attendance in 2003 at Harvard Business School’s Leading Professional Services Firms executive education program. We discussed a case study on Bergstein and Diamond called, “Diamond In The Rough.”
The HBS case study was created in February of 1999 and discusses Mel Bergstein, his co-founder Chris Moffitt, and the challenges they faced during the first two years of the firm, 1994-1996.
Old colleagues and friends, they had doubled Diamond in each of its first two years from nothing to $12.8 million in 1994 to $26.3 in 1995. Earlier in 1996 they had planned to double again. The information technology consulting and systems integration market was huge and rapidly growing…Bergstein and Moffitt, having been part of this industry for decades, believed there was a need for an independent and objective voice that could assess the needs of a digital strategy without being biased toward trying to sell a big outsourcing or systems integration job. They estimated that this independent advice market was approximately 10% of the total market, or $10 billion…In April at the beginning of Diamond’s third fiscal year, two major clients, representing 50% of the prior quarter’s revenues, had pulled out of deals. All of the partners had hunted up projects to cover these losses, but their heroic efforts produced only damage control. Having lost $0.7 million in the past quarter, Diamond was now operating below break-even. To add to the seriousness of the situation, a long-planned IPO was imminent; Diamond had recently offered jobs with signing bonuses of $20,000 to $30,000 each to 50 MBAs, 28 of whom had accepted; and staff and employees were expecting their standard year-end bonuses (which were budgeted between $1.5 million and $2 million). Now, all this was on hold…
Diamond finally IPO’d in 1997. At the end of fiscal 2010 in March, Diamond Technology reported revenues of $210 million. 2009 revenues of $175 million were a 17% drop from 2008’s of $205 million. EBITDA is flat 2008 to 2010 with a loss of almost $16 million in 2009.
I said to Mark O’Connor, “Frankly I don’t see the point of PwC buying this tiny firm given all its legacy issues. The cult of Mel Bergstein was well documented by Harvard Business School. PricewaterhouseCoopers is grasping at straws.”
This acquisition price is a multiple of 1.2 times revenues. Huron and Navigant, two other Chicago-based publicly traded consultancies, had market capitalization to revenue ratios of between .63 and .71, respectively, at the close of trading on 24 August.In addition to the BearingPoint transactions, several other recent deals have concluded at multiples far smaller than what PwC and Diamond have agreed upon. So it appears to be an attractive deal for most Diamond shareholders.
Most Diamond shareholders… That would be Diamond’s employees and directors who own about 30% of the company. Mel Bergstein, who limited his role to Chairman after he acceded to a succession plan and gave up the CEO job in September of 2005 when revenue declined and the company posted a quarterly loss, will make the most. He still owns more than 1 million shares. That should put more than $14 million in his pocket.
What happened after PwC bought Bearing Point and its “highly talented professionals with a proven track record of consistently delivering world class service” ? That’s the way PwC US Chairman Bob Moritz describes the Diamond consultants. First, PwC rescinded all the offers to BearingPoint professionals who were on a visa of any sort. Then, last November, they cut 300+ of their own consulting professionals to make room for the BearingPoint gurus of their new SAP/Oracle systems integration practice.
PwC’s gross revenues from operations for global member firms in 2009 were $26.17 billion, down from $28.19 billion in the same 2008 period. The firm’s Advisory services revenues were hardest hit by the recession of all PwC business areas, down 11.4 percent to $6.11 billion.
Mark O’ Connor at Monadnock Research again did the math and shocked even me with the enormity of what PwC has offered for, what we assume will be, most of Diamond’s consultants – that is if those technology consultants really want to work under the constraints of a public accounting firm:
Diamond has 532 consultants and 652 total employees at the firm. PwC’s acquisition cost was close to $580,000 per employee. But since many administrative staffers will likely become redundant post-transaction, the more relevant figure is acquisition cost per client-facing professional, which is a little more than $710,000 per consultant. Annualized revenue per Diamond employee was $393,000, unchanged from the prior period.
Diamond’s attrition increased to 17 percent on an annualized basis in Q1 of Fiscal 2011. That’s up from 14 percent in the prior period ended in March, and 13 percent in the same period last year. The increase in voluntary attrition indicates increased mobility in an economic environment that had shown signs of improvement, with professionals moving to client organizations and to other firms.
Diamond and PwC have been talking since March. Did some of the employees bail out before they were signed on as sterile strategists for an ineffective firm struggling under the weight of consulting “leadership” with audit-shaped heads? I know for sure that there were significant groups of BearingPoint consultants that would have rather masticated glass shards than work for a public accounting firm again. They took their teams to firms like CSC rather than join Deloitte and especially PwC.
I was quoted in the Monadnock Research note: “PwC tried to buy experienced ERP professionals and their revenue stream with the BearingPoint deal. Now they’re buying IT strategy leadership and Diamond’s revenue stream. Maybe successful technology professionals won’t go to work for an accounting firm unless they’re bought and paid for at a premium.”
PwC has potentially bought a pig in a poke. Hopefully they negotiated lock-ups for key revenue producing consultants, validated current revenues and reported client receivables, and quantified the value of only free and clear clients that will be able to produce for them in the future. Otherwise they’re likely to find the business they thought they bought vaporizing within 18 months. After all, Diamond has not changed much since those heady days of 1996 when they lost two major clients, representing 50% of the prior quarter’s revenues, and went into a tailspin.
From the Monadnock Research report: Diamond’s top 5 clients represent 42 percent of the firm’s net revenues, flat from the prior period, but up from 34 percent in the same period a year ago. So Diamond has increased its business dramatically with a few very large clients. This has been a trend for many large and mid-sized consulting firms over the last 18 months. But the trend also presents risks to clients and firms if those client relationships must terminate as a result of an acquisition. This will likely be the case for a number of strategic Diamond client relationships if the acquisition concludes.
While Diamond does not disclose its revenues by client, it is highly probable that Diamond will need to end its relationships with some of them due to conflicts with PwC as their auditor. The firm has particular exposure in Financial Services and insurance, its largest industry segments, where clients like Goldman Sachs and American Express, both audited by PwC, present obvious conflicts. Goldman Sachs may be among Diamond’s top 5 clients.
PwC had better make sure that the entrepreneurial former Arthur Andersen partner Bergstein does not make the same mistake the former Arthur Andersen Huron guys made and pay off favorite folks without accounting for it properly.
Wait… PwC is Huron’s auditor. PwC certainly knows how to help Diamond make everyone happy this time without getting caught.
Presumably, the goal is to solicit PWC;s non-auditing services to the Diamond clients and Diamond services to the PWC client base. I guess the MBAs that dream up this stuff call it synergies. My view is that this stuff sounds good in the classroom and in presentations but it just doesn’t work in practice. What will probably happen is that Diamond will get a referral from PWC and Diamond will overbill or perform badly for the PWC client and PWC will get a referral from Diamond and PWC will overbill or perform badly for the Diamond client. In the end, they will drag each other down.That’s not the way its suppposed to work but that is probably what will happen.
David @ 1 –Yes, I believe you are correct. Step 1 will be to get Diamond to the existing PwC Advisory clients. And Step 2 will be to use Diamond to drive sales of other service offerings. E.g., the SAP/Oracle systems integration practice.
In other words, I’m agreeing with your speculation that the strategy is to use Diamond as a driver, but I’m guessing it’s a driver for the stalled Bearing Point service offerings. Kind of like what they hoped Internal Audit would do for the other Advisory offerings, back in the days when IA was part of PwC Advisory. I bet there’s a Power Point presentation somewhere at PwC, with a chart that’s got a circle of Advisory service offerings surrounding a diamond (get it?). And there will be arrows from the diamond to the offerings, showing how Diamond’s strategic advisors will open the door for the other offerings to pitch their stuff, if not actually recommend such offerings as a matter of course.
The issue is, Diamond’s services seem to consist of providing “an independent and objective voice that could assess the needs of a digital strategy without being biased toward trying to sell a big outsourcing or systems integration job.” It’s going to be tough to uphold that branding when your clients see you trying to sell a big outsourcing or systems integration job.
I could be wrong, though. I have no inside insight into the inner workings of PwC Advisory. But I don’t see any other strategy that makes sense, given the dollars involved. Even if the strategy seems to have a fatal flaw built into it.
I remember that Power Point at PwC where Internal Audit Advisory was supposed to be the driver for other Advisory work. I also remember a surprising number of internal audit resources supporting Sarbanes Oxley work as co-sourced staff augmentation (this was 2005-2006) and then a surprising amount of all other Advisory IT “strategists” also doing SOX documentation.
Sox is not bringing in the cash anymore, PwC is not getting the big systems implementation jobs, it’s cheaper to outsource to their Indian operation, so what are companies going to be willing to pay for stateside when its run by an audit firm rather than “an independent and objective voice that could assess the needs of a digital strategy without being biased…” ?
I think “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGFlkcnZRFI) might’ve been a better Beatles song to link to this post. Besides the obvious connection, somebody at PwC is hallucinating (or worse) that this will make financial sense for them… Should be a fun trip.
Maybe this could turn out to be one of the smartest moves by PwC Advisory. If the sale does not go through PwC may collect $9.0 million.
The directors also agreed to a $9 million termination fee that “deters and prevents the submission of higher proposals,” shareholders’ lawyers said in the suit.

What are your thoughts on PwC’s recently announced intended acquisition of PRTM Management Consultants and how it fits in the context of this article, ie likely successes, challenges, pitfalls, etc.
I don’t think this acquisition is much different than the Diamond one. The same dynamics and independence pitfalls exist. Mark O’Connor wrote about this acquisition for his site, Monadnock Research. That’s subscription only, so I’ll excerpt the basics:
Balancing the dual auditor/consultant role, and the overall impact on the mix of advisory business to audit and attest work, is a challenge that firms have struggled with for decades. We delved into that issue in-depth a recent Research Note, Honest Services Crisis, which was originally published at re:TheAuditors.
PwC had the largest audit practice in relative proportion to its advisory groups in a recent Monadnock Research study of 2010 fiscal year-end results of the Big Four firms. Since PwC also has the largest proportion of the Big Four audit market at 29.53 percent, it had more areas of potential conflict to police. So as we expected, its advisory practice was smaller in relative size at the time.
PwC’s clients in financial services will be impacted the least. The only strategic financial services sector served by PRTM is private equity and in that sector it is PRTM’s strategic and operational expertise in software, communications and high tech that is the focus of that work, not the private equity business itself. And most private equity firms are private with limited public accounting reporting requirements.
Clients with the most exposure in PwC’s portfolio, outside of high tech and communications, are in manufacturing, industrial, aerospace, defense, automotive, energy, chemicals, process industries, consumer goods, retail, electronics, health care, and some segments of public services.
We cautioned PwC in Honest Services Crisis that the firm’s rapid expansion of its advisory group with the Diamond acquisition, combined with its strategic intent to rapidly expand via acquisition which is further evidenced by the PRTM deal, will strain its ability to police conflicts.
Mel Bergstein, management consultant who saw more than tech in IT, dies at 74 – Finance News | US-China News on January 12th, 2017 at 9:38 am:
[…] To stay afloat while companies were slashing technology spending, DiamondCluster became more traditional, advising clients on how to cut costs and improve productivity. In fiscal 2006, when the bottom line again turned red, Bergstein ceded the CEO position. He remained chairman until PwC bought the firm, by this time named Diamond Management and Technology Consultants, for $378 million, or $12.50 per share. […]

The resource centre for busy senior executives seeking the latest insights into IT Compliance & Privacy issues for major organizations
Despite antitrust pressures and complaints from partners (turned competitors), Microsoft announced that EU regulators have given it the go-signal to release its new operating system, Vista, without dropping any key security features.
A high-ranking Microsoft executive claimed that the enhanced security features in Vista will render third-party antivirus software useless. Irked, pure-play security vendors like McAfee and Symantec, claimed they were at a disadvantage since they were denied access to key parts of the new operating system, which thus impeded their development efforts. Microsoft announced that Vista , the first major upgrade since XP in 2001, will be released to major business clients by November 30 2006 and available to the public by January 30 next year.
In line with this, Microsoft rolled out Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP months before the big release of Vista. Available for download now, the IE7 Web browser upgrade offers users fortified security which will combat malware and phishing. In cooperation with VeriSign and other Certificate Authorities (CA), Microsoft's new IE7 will feature extended validation (EV) SSL, which features increased scrutiny of organizations and more prominent display of certificate details.
Instead of having to refer to the tiny padlock icon, users can turn their attention to IE7's new address bar which turns green for sites with EV SSL, white for neutral pages (standard SSL certificates), and red for dodgy sites. The color-coded address bars will be released in conjunction with Vista 's release.
Firms who want the “green for go” color associated with their site will have to pay a premium to get hold of an EV SSL (around 150% of standard SSL). VeriSign's first wave of EV certificates will be issued to PayPal and Amazon. The collaborative effort between Microsoft and VeriSign are crucial first steps in spurring demand for Web site certificates. Already, Microsoft is planning to launch a public awareness campaign when it releases Vista , aimed at making extended validation a norm in the industry. EV's premium prices and anticipated rise in demand can only mean good news for VeriSign's SSL business.
As excited as I was about yesterday’s page, I was equally frustrated by today’s. In fact, it was difficult to push through creating and even more difficult to want to write about it. At one point I said, I do not like this at all!
I assured her that hate was a strong word which I wasn’t ready to use. A few minutes later I was ready.
While reading in Psalms this morning, I was eager to choose a word. It was almost mercy from 123, but when I reached the end of 124, I knew it was bird. An image came to mind that I wanted to create, much like yesterday’s thistle.
I envisioned an open cage with a bird flying from it or maybe a trap or something that looked like a trap with a bird escaping. I wanted to portray being set free and freedom. I also wanted to use watercolors again, because I loved yesterday’s look so much.
It’s today, though. A new day. A different one. What worked yesterday was not going to work today. This became painfully obvious shortly after I painted the background. When I added colorful triangles around the border that I thought would look like a trap, they didn’t.
I have lots of ready cut pictures of birds. All perching, not flying. I did not have time to search for a flying bird. I was hoping to get this page knocked out quickly. Instead it was knocking me out.
Looking through my cut pictures, I chose one of the perching birds. I was also drawn to a house shown from the side with manicured shrubs and rose bushes lining its brick walkway. I glued it on. It took up most of the page.
I decided to perch the bird in a tree, so I found some branches and glued them on the page. I cut random parts of other trees for the leaves and perched the bird. This is what my work space looked like all morning. I felt as if I were working upside-down and backwards as I tried to compose the page.
This is the end result looking nothing like I imagined. I have gone from hating it to tolerating it to loving it. As I study what I was drawn to add to the picture and where I could or could not place things, I see how the bottom and left side are more structured, rigid, and formal. There is movement to the right and upwards where the bird is. This area is less structured, more playful, and free-flowing.
I find my words on the opposite page ironic. This is my style, my touch, the way I show up. And. It’s. Okay. I totally showed up in this space as myself today. I could not hold it back, no matter how hard I tried to do it the right way.
I share this as encouragement to continue to trust the process, wherever you are in it. Today looked nothing like what I planned time wise and picture wise. I battled perfectionism and self-doubt and fear. There was anxiety. Then I stepped away and looked back.

Morning coffee at my parents with my uncle. Glad to be here while my heart misses there. #allendercenter #theseattleschool #morningcoffee
This update graced my Facebook status Saturday morning. With a full heart I continued to wrestle and sort out all the feelings surrounding the Externship program and not stepping into it this year. Among hugs and sympathetic remarks, a dear friend commented, Give it three more years.
Though an inside joke for us, in that moment I realized that I had grown, am growing, will continue to grow through this process! My ability to read and hear her words as a statement of hope and not despair was a huge indicator that good work is happening in my heart.
The last time she mentioned three years , I was not hopeful. I was angry, stuck, and lost. I felt forgotten and left behind. Now I believe that I am right where I belong, and that it is a good place. I know that three years will look both better and worse, and that I can plan and dream but there are no guarantees surrounding outcomes.
Earlier this week another friend texted a picture that she took during my first weekend in Seattle. We were at the market downtown enjoying Sunday afternoon together before my flight home.
I was caught off guard by how well the image depicted exactly how I was feeling the moment it came through. Wistful, longing, ponderous, contemplative. All of the above. I remembered how I felt in that moment as I let settle all that had stirred in me after that first weekend.
I remembered her kindness to offer space while showing me all of the best downtown places and sharing her beautiful heart with mine. It was such a kind time. Neither of us knew what we were stepping into at the beginning or how it would look in the end.
I only know that she and her husband were the first I told I was considering the program. I was curious to see if they would be willing to host me. They enthusiastically cheered me on, welcoming me into their home and life on the realest of real terms. This family became mine as they graciously opened their home and hearts each of the four weekends.
We sat together on Tuesday, separated by thousands of miles, joined by technology for a brief time of texting as I responded to the picture. I expressed gratitude for her following the prompt to send it to me. It was perfect. She jumped in as we caught up on life and shared heart space in the midst of mothering.
Three years. I will be 50 then. Another son will be 18 and my youngest will all be teenagers. Things will look very different. That intention sounds promising. It allows space for presence, not wishing away the time but fully engaging it.

My day began with these words. Pondering the privilege of discovery I wrote, Jesus, what will I discover today? Little did I know. It is only half over.
This day is full of mixed feelings. My heart is acutely aware of its longings and desires and the difficulty of being finite. As dear friends converge in Seattle to begin Externship training and others gather in Austin in anticipation of the Brave On conference, I am here doing what I have been called to in this season.
I have been called to stay and uncover what it is God has for me in this place, under my own roof, with my own people. Instead of packing a suitcase and saying goodbye, I am unpacking our story and saying, I’m here.
Teen son was up and about early enough to drive. I sat in the passenger seat and Little Mae was in the back. The careful drive began.
At a slow intersection while stopped at a sign, student driver put the car in park to adjust his seat. There were no other cars around, it was not a dangerous situation, but my anxiety began to mount.
Opening my mouth to begin a lecture, another sound came from the back seat. A frantic, terrified, gutteral scream rose from somewhere inside Little Mae. My heart stopped as I looked out the side window, fully expecting to see that we were the victims of a car-jacking.
I spoke in the calmest of voices, fully expecting a lunge, scurry, or sudden movement from the spider and the ensuing chaos that an inexperienced driver and panicked 10 year old would bring.
I was not thinking that I would have to feel the spider through the tissue as I gripped it gently and tossed it out my window that, somehow, I had rolled down. I felt it. I did not squish it.
A collective sigh released from us all as the driver took the left he had planned. We debriefed the series of events and how good it was that the car was stopped and not driving. We laughed and maybe cried (not the driver), and my heart continued racing, flooded with adrenaline, well beyond morning drop-off.
Washing breakfast dishes, I looked up to see a pink flower blooming on the hanging plant above the sink. It is a transplant of this one and a special sign to me. I posted its picture on social media and a friend commented tradescantia/spiderwort.
Of course! Spider redemption, if only in word form. I had to laugh as I rejoiced that I now had a focus for today’s writing.

I know it feels like fall. School is back in session. Football games have begun. Life has resumed routine. Morning drives to school find me facing a blinding low-rising sun in the eastern sky. Pumpkin Spice Lattes are back.
Today I celebrated that truth by stepping off into the deep end of my daughter and son-in-law’s pool and swimming to the other side. It was my first time in the water this summer. The sensation was lovely.
My intention was to try to turn around the funk that seems to have settled around my shoulders, pressing into my heart. Surely water and sunshine would wash it away.
Several of my kids and my husband joined me. Others sat on the edge. We talked and laughed. We played games.
I wish I could say I left my troubles at the bottom of the pool with the leaves that have begun dropping, but it is not that easy. I wish I could say that I have leaned from Dewey to just live in the moment.
This afternoon brought laughter and connection and escape. It brought exercise and fresh air and a son-in-law who grilled hamburgers while we swam in his pool.
It brought goodness and kindness and another reminder that even when life is hard and unpredictable and wearisome, there is beauty and joy and love.

Her smiling face sits down across from me in the coffee shop. She wears a colorful print top in shades of blue tied with a loose bow at the scooped neckline. A dragonfly pendant accents the look. With all of this loveliness, it is her smile that draws me in, open and kind.
Actually I am attempting to work, but I am not succeeding. Not yet, anyway. I am using a window of time in between band camp drop off at 7:45 and a 9:00 snack help shift to collect my thoughts. I say as much as I close notebook and planner, creating more room on the surface of the small table for two.
I’m trying to atone for all the years I couldn’t help when my older kids were in band and I was home with the littles.
Her smile remains open and kind, but her eyes pierce through to my soul. I steadily continue engagement, feeling the pain of that truth landing somewhere deep. Laughingly I agree, trying to explain how I am somewhat kidding.
No, I’ve heard you speak that way before. I think it really needs to be kinder. We do what we can. The guilt is thick there.
In two minutes she has heard my sound bite and nailed it to the point that tears come to my eyes as the conversation comes to mind. I am reminded of why I love this woman and am grateful for her presence in my life whenever our paths intersect.
She is on her way to work, waiting for coffee to brew, a treat to herself on this first day back. We have precious few minutes to connect, but they go deep and real. Quick summer updates from each of us follow until I see her tall to-go cup placed on the counter by the barista and know our time is up.
She rises to collect her order and continue moving through her day. Pushing open the coffee shop door, she turns and says, Give the band kids love from this mama.

The post is first in my Facebook feed when I wake this morning. Shared by a family friend is an obituary for a young woman I met and knew briefly as Cassie when she was a girl and teenager. Our families crossed paths when I was a young mom with small children of my own, her mother a season ahead of me.
I am better acquainted with her oldest sister who taught with me at the school back in the day and her oldest brother who was a friend to my youngest brother. Even then, I was so wrapped up in my own newly-minted adult life that I was not engaged with them on a relational level.
Still. there are people whose lives touch yours who feel like family because of the seasons you have shared or the events you have experienced together. This young woman was born into a family that crossed paths with mine during the 90’s and early 00’s. We attended weddings, church services, picnics, and celebrations together. I remember her and her younger sister as the ages of two of my girls now, teen and tween.
It brought great sadness and deep grief to read of her recent death. I learned of her life in her obituary and of her death on the Facebook page set up for medical updates. I am trying to process the depth of loss it is to lose a beloved daughter, sister, wife, and friend so tragically and so young.
It does not make sense to have one with so much life taken this way. Her adult woman eyes looking into the camera show me her mother, her sister, the women I knew. My heart aches for them. I cannot imagine losing my third child, losing a sister. I do not have adequate words for the grief.
Today they will celebrate her life, grieve her death, bury her in the ground. I will be here tending my family as I was during the season when I knew hers. I will grieve from a distance. I will feel vicariously what it would be to lose a dearly loved one unexpectedly in their prime.
To the George family who I know, and all who loved Cassie that I do not know, I am so sorry for the loss of the one you loved so deeply and who loved you so well. It shows in her smile, in the pictures, in the words. May you find great comfort during this difficult day and in the ones that follow.

This rare sighting is engaged with buckets of water poured over each other’s heads, while videotaping the action in slow motion. One sister stands on the grass and the other on the porch.
In my childhood days, baptisms took place in the swimming pool as we fully immersed one another, Baptist-style. My Presbyterian children have witnessed differently.
Steve walks past with the mower, and I am secretly grateful he chose to pull it out in this golden hour of the day. This means I will not have to mow, and the grass will not have to be bagged.
Soaking wet is an understatement. I remind myself that squealing, soaking girls means outside engagement is happening. We live in a great house in a great space. I am thankful for our yellow house on the corner, always a work in progress.
The dog is brought out and clipped to his leash on the porch long enough to get wet in residual puddles of water left by soaking wet girls. He is then let back inside to shake it off. I hear this through the door.
Somewhere in the midst of it all, my 19 year old son steps out, and we look at each other and laugh. What else is there to do, as he observes the journal on my lap and bears witness to the chaos taking place? There is nothing idyllic about the moment other than the glorious rays of the setting sun.
Two days are all that remain of what has been our normal for almost 25 years, Steve going to work each day at Good Shepherd School and Daycare, providing for our family. Over seasons we have worked together. We have worked apart.
I was a working mom, teaching through my 20’s. I took my 30’s off to be home with our children. At the peak of parenting there were eight of them under our roof that needed care. I returned to teaching when the youngest was in kindergarten. I was 42.
I ended my time at Good Shepherd last year. This was my year to regroup and be home; to figure out what was next. I jokingly called it my gap year. Mostly I spent time repairing harm done from times when I could not be there for my son, now 19, who had fallen through a gap in the family and was living with us in his (finally) finished bedroom after traveling abroad.
The year brought such a sweet space of breakfasts and coffee dates and sharing memories, both good and bad. There was laughter and lots of tears. I did not know at the time of Steve’s upcoming mid-life career change. It is probably good. Otherwise I would not have been able to be as fully present to my family and their needs.
Last night’s sleep passed as slowly as the water pouring over my daughters’ heads in the slow-motion videos they created. Insomnia is no stranger to me. Each hour I woke felt like another wave washing over me, as I mercifully fell back asleep. Dreams came in equal waves.
Tonight is Steve’s final program as Administrator of Good Shepherd School. Little Mae is playing recorder and singing and doing all of the things that kids in the programs have been doing for 25 years. Some of her siblings will be there to watch, remembering when it was their turn to sing the Piggy Song or play recorder.
I will remember the programs I directed over the years at all of the various locations. I will remember the peak season when large numbers of students were transported to Lehman Auditorium or Massanetta Springs Conference Center and the smaller ones of late at West Side Baptist where they all began for me.
One blog post is not enough to capture what is stirring in my heart. What do I do? Give a factual update? Share nostalgic memories? How do I honor the blood, sweat, and tears that my husband leaves behind? How do I honor my own?
This day brings both goodness and grief. Isn’t that all of life? Sitting and giving myself time to write is kindness. Allowing the tears to freely flow and be followed by deep sobs is necessary. More words will come in the future, but for now I will sit in the present.

This was the view across the room from me this morning as I sat in an oversized chair in my Airbnb drinking coffee and reading. Today is the last day of Certificate 2 training. How do I hold that?
Monday evening a precious friend stopped by the house to affix an EzPass to my windshield and capture the tolls for my trip. She also gave me a gift bag care package. Peeking in I saw snacks and a stuffed owl.
I didn’t see the cards tucked in between everything, one for each day, with instructions about when to open them. Each unique card held words of blessing and encouragement specific to the day.
This is a part of her glory. She is a writer. I was the recipient of her lavish gift of words. I assembled the cards on the tabletop under the staircase to remind me of truth and give me courage to step into hard places.
Some cards contained lunch money. Others a blessing. Each met me in exactly the right space for what the day held and what my heart needed.
I am preparing for the last session. Lunch is with myself today in solitude, pondering all that these days have held and preparing to end well. What do I hold? What do I toss?
It is my second attempt at writing this post. I wrote a first one while sitting at one of the wooden chairs that flank the table. I hit publish and rushed out the door. It vanished.
I sat all morning holding my disappointment while trying to release demand as to why my post vanished and where it went. I needed to remain present to all that was happening in morning session and group.
I will hit publish again for a second time on these new words for my morning thought. Then I will brave the rain and return to my table and receive what the afternoon holds.

One of the many challenges I face while doing this work is that of staying present in my own story and not carrying everyone else’s along with me.
Last week I sat with a wise friend who reminded me that while I play a major role in my children’s stories for a season, I am not their entire story. They will each walk their own path of growth and self-discovery with God, separate from me.
It is easy and familiar to make myself too big and too responsible. I feel a need to carry each of them with me on the journey. Instead of focusing on the work I need to do for healing, I circle back to how my woundedness has harmed those in my world. This keeps me from the task at hand, which is uncovering more of my own story and tending to my own heart.
We are all wounded and wounding souls. As I get closer to my own wounds, I see how my response to them has wounded others. This week is for tending to my own story. There will be space and time to process with those in my world when I return.
A friend gave me a care package Monday evening before I left. Among the thoughtful items in it was an adult coloring book. It has turned out to be one of the kindest gifts.
Last night, my mind swirled with all of the life still going on at home and all of the things I can’t control in everyone’s world. The bigness of this trip was bearing down on me. I struggled to stay upright and grounded.
Flipping through the coloring book, I came across this page. The scripture and flowers spoke to me as I tore it from the book and began to color one flower, then another.
I focused on the worries of my heart, giving them over to God. As I colored each flower I focused on a particular care or person. My mind stayed present in the moment.
Unless the Lord had helped me I would soon have settled in the silence of the grave. I cried out, “I am slipping!” But your unfailing love, O Lord, supported me. When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer. Psalm 94:17-10
My prayer this week is that the doubts in my mind will be replaced with the comfort of God and with renewed hope and cheer, supported by the Lord’s unfailing love.
Blessings, Friends! Thank you for your love and support on the journey and for joining me here in this space. Each of you is a gift to my heart.

I’m sitting in the car in the rain as husband runs into Food Lion for the last of the groceries after our Saturday Costco trip. On my heart is recovery of teenage self. Literally. My chest keeps tightening and breath catching. That young woman is so lost inside of me.
This week I take one of her stories to certificate 2 training. It’s from the last year she was a teenager, 1990, where she believed her fate was sealed and all hope for choice was gone. It’s where she finally departed herself, shedding any remnants of who she was or might have been for who she was required to be.
I have punished her for that. For years she has borne the brunt of blame for trying to survive. For doing the best she could. For existing.
I’m in a weird space of feeling all of the feelings connected to that part of me as I sort them into their categories. Everything feels way too intense and current. Things that should not be a big deal seem huge. And things that really do loom large, well those feel unbearable.
Today’s 7 stares back from the calendar app on my phone, reminding me that in one month I will be another number away from nineteen. Twenty-eight numbers away, to be exact.
What is this crazy feeling of being so close, yet so far from myself? I hope to find out more this week as I regroup with others as we walk through our stories together.
I am grateful to my family for, once again, holding down the fort and to my friends for cheering me on, as I bravely go where I haven’t before, into another scene from my past.

January is here, why not start you new year off with a good book? This month's theme is starting anew. Have you set your goals for this year? I have set many goals for myself and I hope that you all have done the same too.
When you set goals for yourself, try to start off with smaller ones in order to reach your ultimate dreams. Sometimes when you start off too big, you can overwhelm your yourself by biting off more than you can chew. That's like me trying to write a book in one day. Instead I write a chapter week, which is more realistic for my daily schedule and routine.
So remember to set realistic goals for yourself and to hang in there. With determination and willpower, You will eventually get there.:-)

I reached the housing agency in thirty minutes and I had to find the right building for the meeting. Parking was another dilemma. I was literally driving around circles, until I asked someone where to park. I finally found a spot. Once I got to the conference room the meeting was already in session, everyone was there on time except for me. I could feel all eyes on me as I entered the room. A wave of uneasiness came over me as everyone gaze rested upon me. I swept my hair behind my ear and glanced down at my desk.
When I looked up, my gaze landed on this extremely good looking older man. Our eyes locked in a heightened moment of attraction. He was tall with olive skin and piercing green eyes. I could feel his eyes watching my every move. My skirt showed off my sexy well toned thighs as I crossed my legs. His stare landed upon my legs. The director paused for a moment to recapture his train of thought.
I casually studied his features. He had salt and pepper hair, with strong jaws, and full lips. His badge read, “Antonio Feleti.” I glanced at the paperwork that was handed out during the meeting. I saw that Antonio was one of the lead directors for the government agency.
Antonio’s piercing green eyes bored right into mines as he concluded the meeting. After dismissal, he began to approach me. I was busy gathering my notebook and paperwork. I could feel his piecing eyes staring at me and when I looked up our eyes met.
“Hello. I didn’t have a chance to introduce myself. I’m Antonio Feleti.” He shook my hand and they tingled with his touch. Antonio searched my face.
“Nice to meet you too. I am the director of public housing and I expect my staff to be on time. But for you I will make an exception.” He beamed. His smile softened up his strong, powerful demeanor.
“I apologize for being late. I was having car trouble. I left a message with Ms. Liz, the administrative assistant.”
“Oh yeah, she told me. I did get your message before the meeting started.” Antonio glanced at my soft, full lips. His eyes bored right into mine. His phone rang and broke our intense moment of attraction.
As he answered his phone, he dropped his pen. I bent over to pick it up. As I leaned over, my cleavage showed through my blouse. I looked up and saw that he was looking at my breasts. I was about to leave, but Antonio gestured for me to stay as he finished his phone conversation.
“Oh, Bernard needs my assistance with a compliance issue? OK, I will be right there.” Antonio put his phone away.
“I am looking forward to working with you, Destiny.” He shook my hand and smiled showing off his gorgeous pearly whites.
As we walked our separate ways, I glanced back and saw that Antonio was checking me out. I blushed at what had just taken place.

Don't let the stress of school get you down! Have your essay written by a professional writer before the deadline arrives.
Applications must include a completed online application, resume, and two electronic references. One reference must be from a current (or past) member of the Office of Residence Life such as a Resident Director or a Resident Assistant. References may not be a member of the applicant's family.
The application is run through the University’s HireTouch application system. There will be an opportunity for you to provide basic biographical information, essays, upload your resume, and provide the names of references. Once your application is submitted, your references will receive an email to complete a reference form. These two references (one from a current or past member of the Office of Residence Life) need to be submitted by the deadline to be considered for application review and interviews. Applicants who are considered for placement will be subject to a background check. After successful completion of a background check, placement offers can be made.
A number of essay questions are asked in the application. For your reference these essay questions are listed below. All candidates are encouraged to write their responses prior to starting the application and then cut and paste their responses in to the appropriate place in the application. Use of smart quotes and certain formatting will not carry over when copying/pasting. It is suggested that you use a program with plain text formatting such as Notepad before copying your essays in to the application.
Many of the fields within the application will be pre-populated with student information on file. It is assumed that the individual completing this application is the student who is applying for the Resident Assistant position and is violation of the Student Code of Conduct for the application to be completed by another. With this in mind, the student applicant will be held responsible for the accuracy and truthfulness of the information submitted with this application.
Submitting your application online is only one part of the application process; you must also sign-up for a First Round Interview.

If these steps are not completed before the deadline, you will not be considered for a RA position.

Applicants are generally not required to submit short essays when they initially apply for a position. However, it is important that you know what agencies are looking for in application essays, as they may be required in later stages of the application process.
As you write, be sure to include as much information as you can that responds to each qualification, even if that information is already included on your federal resume. Address key words and phrases mentioned in the position description, focus on experiences to which you directly contributed and avoid acronyms. When recounting your experiences, tell a story by explaining the challenge(s) you faced, the action(s) you took and the result(s) from your actions. Writing application essays is a great opportunity to use real-life examples to describe the experiences, education and activities listed on your resume.

Writing your essays ahead of time will allow you to copy and paste your answers into the application. Responses for each item are limited to a maximum 5,000 characters (about 1 single-spaced page).
Depending on the position and agency, you may be asked to submit multiple documents or forms with your application. Some of the more common types of documentation include college transcripts, professional certifications or proof of non-competitive status. In most cases, you will be able to mail or fax these documents separately if they are not accessible in an electronic file.
You may also be asked for additional pieces of information, such as your college transcripts. If you miss any piece that is asked of you, your application will likely be disqualified—so read carefully and follow through!

These pictures show my process of re-creating my old fan. The only function that a fan can do is rotating, and I want my fan can actually draw something so rip my fan apart.
I think the most important thing in life is creativity, and the important thing is how to transform these ideas into things that can dramatically improve our lives to brighten up our day to day lives. When they are finished, they become art pieces that are different from other works of art because it has been communicated and communicated with its reformer. It is because of this communication that these works of art bear the artistic value of the manufacturing era and add to the artistic value of the era of transformation. There are many old objects that have a long history, so they have become two epochs of art culture and art in the tradition and spirit of the times, while at the same time conveying the classic and fashion of Modern Art, more importantly, they reflect their artistic value and the spirit of the Times. They also clearly reflect their respect for history and their love and pursuit of contemporary art. This kind of innovation for the sake of environmental protection and the transformation of the life attitude is the true artistic value and the spirit of the Times.
It is not too difficult to creatively express the artistic value and Zeitgeist of the old, such as the shape, color, and material of these old things can achieve certain effects, and you can add and subtract these old things in shape. For example, my fan doesn’t have any quirks in the styling, and my choice is to add a few pencils to add its line design.
This is a time of high-speed development of material civilization and a time of high concentration of resource waste. It is because of this kind of large waste phenomenon that the old material transformation this kind of environmental protection form can develop rapidly. The transformation of the old into a part of everyday life reflects not only the respect for history and the love and pursuit of contemporary art but also reflects the people from their own starting, make a contribution to the environment with your own ideas. Nowadays, people discover the unique meaning of these relics through their own eyes, communicate and communicate with the old things in their hearts and lives, and find the unique artistic value and spirit of the Times, then, by combining their own needs and ideas, we finally set out to put these ideas into practice, making them unique pieces of art while also producing some creative goods, make these eco-friendly masterpieces popular in people’s lives. After such a process, the art value and the spirit of the old things will be known and respected by more people, so as to achieve a high degree of unification of environmental ideas and creative practices, and to help people develop their subconscious ideas into environmental protection and creativity, and the changed attitude and habits of life, to contribute their own strength to the environment.

If you liked this post in addition to you would want to acquire more info regarding homepage (Serveriran9.Bloglove.cc) i implore you to pay a visit to our web page. He pinpointed 4 motives for dissatisfaction: homepage breathing is worse, which can happen if a doctor does not compensate for aesthetic modifications postoperative deformity that sufferers don't like (probably removing a bump leaves the patient's nose crooked) the patient by no means reached the original goal and last, the patient got the requested adjust but now finds it unacceptable. Following, they really feel they lost a familial or ethnic characteristic, and ask, ‘Can you do some thing to put my nose back to what it was?' " he mentioned. Past outcomes. Make positive the surgeon you are taking into consideration has years of knowledge supplying sufferers satisfactory outcomes. Look for before and soon after photo galleries to get an notion of the benefits you can anticipate. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Rand shares three techniques to extend facelift outcomes for sufferers in Seattle that have lately had facial rejuvenation surgery.As plastic surgeon Robert M. Goldwyn has observed, "What emerges from the story of paraffin is the also-familiar sequence of the introduction of a therapy, its avid acceptance without having enough testing, and its disastrous sequelae for a lot of individuals." From a health-related viewpoint, this is an accurate description of the episode: the practice of injecting paraffin is just one of several footnotes to healthcare history, albeit 1 that foreshadowed the later experience with silicone and might however prove analogous to the much more current case of collagen.Our team of experts and employees think that informed patients are better equipped to make choices relating to their child's health and wellbeing. For your individual use, we have designed an comprehensive patient library covering an array of educational subjects, which can be discovered on the side of each page. Browse by means of these diagnoses and treatment options to find out much more about subjects of interest to you. Or, for a more extensive search of our whole web site, enter your term(s) in the search bar supplied below.2. Strategy your recovery time. Depending upon the surgery, recovery time could variety from a couple of days to a handful of weeks. Hold this in mind as it affects your function, family, and social schedules right after surgery. Also individuals who are active have a tendency to have much more mental toughness. They push themselves to finish a run or finish a ride or lift much more weight. That goes hand in hand with surgical recovery," Dr. Roehl says.Recovery after cosmetic surgery guarantees you stay healthier and heal correctly. If you happen to be interested in aesthetic procedures, pick David K. Hiranaka, M.D., D.M.D He serves Kailua Kona and the Large Island as a cosmetic surgeon, specializing in reconstructive methods for the face and neck. Dr. Hiranaka is a Harvard-educated surgeon with more than 20 years of expertise in the field. Call (808) 326-2040 to schedule a consultation or pay a visit to his internet site to learn much more about therapy choices.When you've exhausted all your options, met with a handful of surgeons, and completed your research, it really is lastly time to pick a plastic surgeon. In order to really feel fully sure in your choice, it really is important that you trust your gut and pick the plastic surgeon that you really feel most comfy with.For millennials like me, plastic surgery is no longer a taboo topic. We openly talk about repairing, improving and enhancing our bodies via surgery, and for most of us, the decision to get one thing nipped or tucked is a individual option that isn't judged also harshly. Numerous of my friends have undergone profitable breast augmentations, rhinoplasties, vaginal rejuvenations and smaller cosmetic procedures like the injection of Botox or fillers. It is not surprising to me that the American Society of Plastic Surgeons reported that 15.six million cosmetic procedures have been performed in 2014, a three percent enhance from 2013.So several teenagers are searching for cosmetic surgery to trim or homepage shape the external genitalia that the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists issued guidance from its Committee on Adolescent Wellness Care to physicians last week, urging them to teach and to reassure individuals, recommend alternatives to surgery that may possibly alleviate discomfort, and screen them for a psychiatric disorder that causes obsession about perceived physical defects.PAYING TILL IT HURTS: Articles in this series are examining the higher expenses of typical medical encounters and how they contribute to well being care spending in the United States. But such price-cutting blurs the line in between the techniques of commerce and the practice of medicine, in which physicians have traditionally encouraged remedies based on a patient's condition or issues, not on the doctor's bottom line.

March 21, 2015: Yet more mutant children have been kidnapped for purposes unknown. Magneto, Mimic and Phoenix get together to talk about rescuing them.
Three days have passed and Magneto asked Jean to meet with him again, this time in an empty office in the financial district. There is just a table with some folders (with the logo of Gotham Police) on it. The old mutant seems completely alone this time. No armor, but his Corinthian helmet is on the table too.
A lot has happened in three days, which possibly put the mood of Jean off. Whilst she tried to contain it, it dripped off of her like butter. But, she tightened it up, blocked out others who could sense and feel, bandaged and wrapped up her shoulder and set to the ground with her leather jacket pulled upon her arms.
A little suggestion put out into the air with a beacon of her psyche attached, which is slightly fragmented to keep the peace on her end and to not distrub Calvin. The office was met, reached, brow raised in surprise as she expected another foe turned ally to be there along with Xavier's old friend. But.. no one.
It being a Saturday, Cal's in the city already. It being six thirty, he's out of the show he caught and in a bar, having a drink and deciding if he wants to catch an evening show as well before meeting up with Ryan, a dancer in the show he's debating seeing. Jean's thoughts decide it for him. He finishes his beer and leaves, heading for a nearby alley. « Okay. Let me see where you are. » he sends back. And as soon as he gets the image, he's there in a *BLINK*. "Evening Jean. Magneto, nice to see you again."
Magneto nods to Jean in greeting, "yes of course, Mystique obtained copies of the police reports, I have matching descriptions and the code-names and rough descriptions of the three metahumans coinciding with the kidnappers at the museum."
Calvin appearance brings a frown to his face. Then he remembers, "Cal… isn't it? I remember you and the peculiar statement you made at the Church of Humanity rally back in July."
Jean turns, gaze looking -up- towards Calvin with a smile. "Glad you could make it." She states, then enters in more fully to the apartment to pull out a chair for her and Calvin so that they could sit. No one likes a person who looms, and she was sure that Mimic could take care of himself should anything happen.
"I hope there will be no issue with Calvin joining us in retrieving the children. I feel he's the best to get them out of there and back home safely once we reach them."
"Or Mimic when we're being formal or covert." Cal agrees. "And yes, it's been a while." Though he enters the office, he doesn't sit immediately. "If you'd prefer to speak to Jean alone, I can leave. But rescueing these kids is a priority and I'd really like to help out."
"No, of course not, Ms. Grey. We agreed one of the X-Men would come to look for the children," he offers his hand to Calvin. "I hope you have some experience in investigation and interrogation. We will be travelling to Santa Prisca, a country controlled by crime lords, most of them involved with the American drug trafficking. One, or several of them, ordered the kidnapping of the mutant children, and may still have them in his power. Perhaps Bane himself."
Jean winces a little. "Make that another. Cyclops insisted that he come along." Jean relaxes where as Calvin did not, yet, taking liberties in leaning forward to drag a file closer to her person. "So, Bane is not in control of this operation, but rumors that there is someone else?"
Glancing back towards Calvin, she covers the file itself, then picks it up to hand it towards him to look over. "When we get back to headquarters, I'm sure Calvin will be willing to help me look up the island itself through satellite imagery."
Cal clasps the offered hand without hesitation. "Given the circumstances, normal ethical considerations can be set aside. I'll get the information from their minds if they aren't shielded. If they are, there are ways to convince them." He sits down and takes the file to look through. "I'm not familiar with anyone named Bane. Is he a mutant? And what is the interest in the children?"
"Experiments with mutant children don't seem to fit Bane psychological profile," which Magneto has sketched in the past couple days. "It is unlikely Bane is a mutant. He might be a meta-human, but most likely he is just a normal human that uses an enhancement drug called Venom to become something akin to a super-soldier. Venom often kills those who use it, but Bane is an exception." He gestures to the folders, opening one. "But Bane is not above kidnapping children if being paid by someone else. I think this is what happened. Hydra might in in Santa Prisca, or this might be an ambitious drug lord. We will know soon."
Jean remained quiet all the while, soaking in the information as it comes, taking up another file that has gone untouched to give it a read. There was a sad look upon her face, for it was the file chosen that did it to her. The information passed on to Magneto by the way of a thumb drive she gave him had all of the stats.. present.
Cal just nods but the one hand clenches and his claws *SNIKT* in and out, revealing more than his expression does about what he thinks of people kidnapping kids for experiments. "I can be ready on a minute's notice from this moment on. My boss is very understanding about sudden absences." His boss being the Professor, of course. "
"We can leave tomorrow, but I am sending an agent to Gotham first," explains Magneto. "There is a good chance the kidnapping operation is ongoing, obvious mutant children are often kicked out of their homes when the manifest in their early teens. And too many vanish without trace. Gotham police believes these three metahumans, Hex, Sparky and Ghost, are still in town."
"Tomorrow's fine." Cal agrees. With this much advanced notice, he can even reschedule a couple of things. "Please forward us anything you learn before then so we can be up to date and make any plans we might need to. Will any of your people be joining us as well?"
"No, I work better alone," replies Magneto. Which means the X-Men are… well, a compromise with Jean. "As I said, I will send someone to Gotham, I guess Mimic or Cyclops could go there with my agent, should you prefer. I doubt your students are there, but other mutant children might be endangered."
A hand now rests upon her temple as she leans back into her chair. She was obviously funneling information to Cyclops, who's often on the receiving end of her witty banter and randomly weird thoughts. This time was no exception, this was all about the children so he was going to hear it all, whether he liked it or not.
"I'll go to Gotham. I've yet to see the area and I hope it's all that I've ever heard of." To get a glimpse into the mind of Batman would be optimal, but.. Jean wasn't the intrusive sort. "Tomorrow it is then."
"I'm not familiar with Gotham. I'm not sure Cyclops is either." Cal tells Jean. "But if you find anything or need backup, let me know and I'll be there." He closes the files and sets it on the table, taking a moment to study Magneto. So this one 'works better alone'. Interesting.

In KP everyone can get the correct result almost as it is based on stellar positions and the analysis is as per Parasara only.
Saturn is aspecting 3rd and 9th houses, hence the fixation would be late. You will wedded in around Oct 2019.
but i am more convinced by KP System now let’s wait and watch what future hold in depth then ,only we will be sure KP System is good or vedic system

Israel says it plans to pull out of the United Nations cultural and education agency, UNESCO, hours after the US announced its decision to do the same, accusing the body of “anti-Israel bias.”
According to a statement released by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office on Thursday, the premier “instructed the foreign ministry to prepare Israel’s withdrawal from the organization alongside the United States.”
Tel Aviv’s move came just a few hours after US State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert announced that the White House would withdraw from the Paris-based agency, citing growing “arrears” at UNESCO, the need for “fundamental” reform in it and its “continuing anti-Israel bias.”
The Israeli premier’s office further said that Netanyahu welcomed “the decision by US President (Donald) Trump to withdraw from UNESCO.” It described the move as a “courageous and moral decision because UNESCO has become the theater of the absurd and because instead of preserving history it distorts it.”

I was flipping through the sale papers last night and came across this Graco booster seat for $15. I figured it was time for a big girl seat! Our baby is growing up!!!
that is so cool! I was actually fgoing to get Nate one of those when they were on sale last time. I thought it might not take up so much room in the back seat! She looks like such a BIG girl! I bet she likes buckling it by her self too huh?!

Making Farm Machinery Safer - Lessons from injured farmers - Rural Financial Counselling Service NSW - Northern Region
This report focuses on farm machinery injury. The work reported here identifies individual and machine characteristics that are associated with an increased risk of a serious farm work related injury. A comprehensive analysis of a series of farm machinery events is reported, and through the application of a human factors and systems approach, recommendations are made in relation to improving machinery design to reduce the potential for injury events to occur, and to reduce the severity of resulting injury when such events do occur.
This report is expected to be of interest to the agricultural industry, farm machinery manufacturers and dealers, occupational health and safety authorities, and those involved in farm safety programs.

also,if you start with a 4-wheeled armored vehicle,should upgrade it to a 6x6,8x8,a tank ,a tank with 2 pairs of cattrepilars and go to the next level from(i don't have further ideas for that,invent something like a ,,hover-tank")and each level of the vehicle have a diferent behaviour on different lands(water,mud,sand...)and a bigger armor than the precedent.
I don't know ,would be fun,but don't make it too hard to use,keep it easy ,fluid gameplay and,most important,FUN
_ guided bullets. A bullet able to correct its trajectory (a little) but during the shot, the tank can't move and the player have a "bullet view" : easiest to kill but easiest to be killed.
and now,should be 3 teams:green(with a lizard-skin like texture ,you know,green with hexagons),special:bigger speed
thank you very much for all the ideas and feedback you provided to us. I have to admit that we will only be able to implement a few of your suggestions, due to the lack of funds and human resources we are currently facing.
With reference to the funds, why don't you setup a Paypal donate. It may not help a lot but something is better than nothing and a few people, including myself, would gladly put some money in to see this game develop.

Due to the fact that we would like to sell the full version of ZB in the near future, we think it's inappropriate to let people donate money before. Everyone who thinks this game is worth some euros(dollars) is welcome to support us by buying the full version.
We will release an autoupdater together with the final version and according to the financial success of ZB we are planning to release not only bug fixes but also some feature/content patches. Perhaps there will be even a "Zero Ballistics 2" someday
Seeker wrote: But don't you need money to get to the stage of it being ready for retail in the first place
Correct, that money is currently our private capital. If you have 200k to help us make Zero Ballistics the next AAA title, don't hesitate to contact us

Mean absolute error between sim and obs, in the same units of them, with treatment of missing values.
When an 'NA' value is found at the i-th position in obs OR sim, the i-th value of obs AND sim are removed before the computation.
If sim and obs are matrixes, the returned value is a vector, with the mean absolute error between each column of sim and obs.
The missing values in obs and sim are removed before the computation proceeds, and only those positions with non-missing values in obs and sim are considered in the computation

Where as before a secretary might only be utilised 40% of time time now they are put into pools so that this utilisation can be 100%. The impact of this is that where as a secretary might have previously been very responsive to any needs now there is a buffer of work going which the pool of secretaries will work through. The result of this is that the responsiveness to completing the work is reduced. For those people who are not 100% utilised people reduce their speed so that they fully use their time.
This pooling only works if the resources are fungible between different tasks. The challenge is that context switching between tasks can be up to 20% = mechanics of moving to a new task + reworking because of having to stop and move on to other tasks previously + immersion time + frustration + loss of team binding effect.
Direct communication is key, there should not be a restriction in requiring communication to go via their manager.
The cost of staff turn over = Time to get up to speed X (Salary + Overhead) X 0.5 X Number of employees X % Staff turn over
You can optimise for time or cost, not both – you can try to balance the two but if you want things done at the minimum time for the minimum cost this just results in stress.
Workers respond to increased pressure by trimming any remaining waste by concentrating on the critical path.
Aggressive scheduling can cause waste – by having people with particular skills arrive earlier than they can actually start the work. Additionally blame is put on the lowest employees and there is no accountability for the scheduling.
Sprinting can be an effective way to get to the finish line but this should be used sparingly. In contradiction continued overtime has negative consequences:
With an extra time, generally, extra work is done however the productivity of each hour is reduced. Regularly accounting uses the contracted hours not worked hours to calculate productivity.
Face saving is not labour saving – such as getting a manager to do clerical tasks (e.g. photocopying, document formatting etc) which could be done by a more junior individual. This would then free the manager up. The challenge is that such a gofer is seen as overhead so is always under pressure to be removed.
Over worked managers are doing things they shouldn’t be doing. It is quite common that these people are actually doing multiple roles – the management role as well as the role of someone in the team. The result is poorly completed lower level tasks and no management at all. The reason people do this is that if people have to look busy then doing doing a subordinate job as well provides job security and management is difficult where as the subordinate role is easier and instantly rewarding.
Over-stressed organisations are always understaffed. In fearful cultures people are challenged to deliver more for less and people don’t like to hear things they don’t like to hear.
When third parties are involved fearful companies will prefer to litigate rather than admit internally that they made a mistake. There is never a good outcome for either company from litigation but from an employee perspective in a company of fear blaming another company means that they save face for the manager inside the company.
Quality (both defect free and features) takes time, you can’t have both quality and quantity with the same quantity of people. “Quality” programs can often result in quality reduction, e.g. pushing things to the customer.
Directing an organisation is hard. Seeming to direct and organisation is easy. All you have to do is see the drift and tell people to go that way.
Managing by objectives gives you exactly what you task people to do – however in reality it is rarely what you actually want. As such these objectives regularly turn out to be counter productive. This promotes the idea of the company generally being in stasis and not prepared to take on new challenges which might result in huge growth.
Trust is a difficult thing to earn but it is important for managers to give more trust rather than less, generally in advance of it being earned. There is a risk that as a result the person could fail however without giving sufficient trust there would be no way for the person to learn and grow.
If you have to make a change it is much better to make a change while a company is growing, rather than when it is in decline. In the latter people will already be nervous and scared. When a company is growing people are happier to make a change if these see how this ties in with the company vision, which must be authentic.
The key role of middle management is innovation. If these managers don’t have sufficient slack they will not be able to spend the time innovating and the company will suffer. To achieve this these managers need to work together. “Healthy competition” is never healthy, when people are competing people are not collaborating and are in-fact working against each other.
When people are learning new things you can not expect people to work at the same rate as they were before. There is a natural slow down as people learn new skills and it would be foolish for companies to not take this into consideration when scheduling.
It is usual for people to only consider the earliest date and promise this to the business or clients. The delivery date will always be within a range of time – of which people should be fully clear on the range of possible dates or costs. There can be ways to reduce the potential risk for delay – the work to do this needs to be estimated at the start this way an informed decision can be made to do the risk reduction work as part of the project or not, this work will have an impact on the earliest delivery date but will reduce the latest delivery date.
Are there tasks on the work breakdown which might not need to be done if the risk does not materialise?
Your number-one mission as a speaker is to take something which matters deeply to you and rebuilds it inside the mind of your listeners.
be prepared. If people are giving up their time to listen then it is only fair that you invest time preparing
the organisation. People have no interest in how your NGO/company is organsied, focus on the products which people can get excited about
content is king. Although a good presented can make a dull topic interesting if there is no substantial content the audience will feel cheated
The key is to present one idea thoroughly – overstuffed = under-explained. Look to find something which is bigger than you and your organisation as your throughline – Show why it matters!
loose the ego, ever: name dropping, stories to show off, boast, talking about you not the idea, politics is divisive
parables – stories with meanings which relate to your topic can be a powerful way to engage an audience
It is key to string things together in such a way that people can follow you from where they start to where you want them to get to. These sequence of steps need to be built in such a way that everyone can follow the path and no one looses the way.
explain why people think the way they do or a situation which people can relate to which can be used to support the point
reduction ad absurdist – take the counter argument to a point where it created a contradiction, but be careful not to fall into mud slinging
Revelation. Ideal for presenting things which are difficult to explain. Set up the audience then let the images inspire.

either following a script or not, whichever suits you – don’t try to do something you aren’t comfortable with
Motorisation is time consuming – a memorised talk gets worse through memorisation before it gets better. You should memorise it to a level you can deliver the talk while you are doing other unrelated tasks.
Spoken and written language are different – if you are giving a talk you must use the language you would speak.
Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse. If it is worth peoples time to listen it is worth your time to practice.
Do the rehearsal in the exact outfit you are going to wear. This would pick up noised from earrings etc which you might want to change.
Use confidence monitors just to show your slides, don’t try to use speakers note or a script as this distances you from the audience
Grab peoples attention right away (don’t thank people for being there etc) the first 10 second and minute are key.
Ignite curiosity – as a surprising question which people want to know the answer to, but it must not be too broad to keep interest
Have a backup plan – perhaps a bullet point notes or a story to tell if there are technical problems
This book proposed that if you have the Best Working Conditions => you get the Best Programmers => to develop the Best Software => which results in Profit!
The preface for this is the the quality of the work and the amount of time spent are simply uncorrelated. Productivity is 5 to 1 or 10 to 1 between programmers. You can’t afford to be number two, or to have a “good enough” product. It has to be remarkably good, by which I mean so good that people remark about it. Having really, really, really talented software developers is your only hope for remarkableness.
The great software developers, indeed, the best people in every field, are quite simply never on the market. The average great software developer will apply for, total, maybe, four jobs in their entire career. Whereas bad people are on the market quite a lot.
Avoid advertising on general-purpose, large job boards as the bad people who are all over the market will apply and swamp you.
Students are lazy, with lots of options so can roll out of uni into a job. For the good ones try to attract them a year or two early – they might need some training but it is beneficial for both sides. You will likely need to have a contact at the Uni to find the best students.
Putting on headphones with music to drown out the ambient noise reduces the ability of programmers to have useful insights
Good chairs don’t cost that much more over their lifetime and if you take the cost per week it is cheaper than most other office facilities
People want to work with good, cheerful and happy people – Smart, and Gets Things Done and not a jerk
Managers can advise but they must be extremely careful to avoid having their “advice” interpreted as a command
people being promoted because of their ability to network rather than being promoted strictly on merit
being forced to do something that is technically inferior because someone higher than them in the organization, or someone better-connected, insists on it.
People want to work on something cool, exciting new languages attract people. Young programmers, especially, are attracted to ideological companies
Developers don’t really care about money unless you’re screwing up on the other things – it means people aren’t really loving their job. If potential new hires just won’t back down on their demands for outlandish salaries, you’re probably dealing with a case of people who are thinking, “Well, if it’s going to have to suck to go to work, at least I should be getting paid well.”. That doesn’t mean you can underpay people, because they do care about justice – you do have to pay competitively, as long as the salaries are basically fair they will be surprisingly low on their list of considerations. Offering high salaries is a surprisingly ineffective tool in overcoming problems
Use a strictly objective system of reviewing and sorting them, this is not a filtering criteria it is just to sort a big pile of CVs to find candidates who are most likely to be suitable so they get interviewed first
People who love programming often work on their own programming projects (or contribute to an open source project) in their spare time.
Sometimes certain programming languages or technologies indicate evidence of someone who loves to explore new technologies
Specific covering letter to the company, a custom cover letter is a sign that if we do make this candidate an offer they’re likely to accept it
programmers who can communicate their ideas clearly – so neat, well structured and gramatically correct CVs
Trying to bring new ideas into the team – to break people out of group-think and their own echo chamber
Great developers are likely to have enough options of places to work that any extra hoops will put them off bothering to apply.
Any technology you know right now might be out of date in a year, you are looking for people who pick things up quickly and can learn new things – so don’t filter CVs on key words.
Get the candidate to describe their career history and basically tell me about themselves. Looking for:
Politics: How the candidate handles challenges. Looking for people who got things done, even in the face of opposition. I’m looking for people who challenged the status quo, who overcame objections, and who made things happen. Whose idea was it? Who convinced whom? Who did what? Did it work out? Why not?
Get the candidate to solve a technical problem. This should take something the candidate is familiar with but are unlikely to have implemented themselves. The aim is to look at their approach rather than getting them to speak code over the phone.
Get the candidate to ask questions about the company. This shows if they have done any research and what they are interested in.
People who are just looking for trivia e.g. “What’s the difference between varchar and varchar2 in Oracle 8i?”, smart does not mean knows trivia, aptitude is more important. Any skill set will be out of date in a couple of years
don’t listen to recruiters opinions, don’t ask around about the person before you interview them, never talk to the other interviewers about the candidate until you’ve both made your decisions independently. This provides the least amount of bias for or against the candidate.
are passionate, they might be passionate in favor or against but passion is key. Bad candidates just don’t care.
ask them to find bugs in their code, even in the unlikely event there are none, to see how they approach it
Even if they are a bad candidate, you want them to like your company and go away with a positive impression.
Don’t ask questions such as are they married, have kids etc even in a conversational way as this adds nothing and the candidate might feel this has been used against them which is likely illegal.
“Back of the envelope questions” e.g. How many piano tuners are there etc are a good way to provoke a conversation.
Great people are much, much more valuable than average people – three to ten times as productive, costing 20% or 30% more
Firing poor performers can increase moral because poor performers are taking time away from the good performers. If you can’t fire them move under-performers to a place where they can’t cause any impact.
Micromanaging would require a huge amount of managers to micromanage everything. That or you hit and run not seeing the consequences of your decisions.
Give them financial rewards and punishments to create incentives, aka replaces intrinsic motivation with extrinsic motivation.
When you stop paying the bonus, or when they decide they don’t care that much about the money, they no longer think that they care, even though they might have cared before you started giving them a bonus for it.
They’ll find some way to optimize for the specific thing you’re paying them, without actually achieving the thing you really want.
Make a point of of eating lunch with my coworkers. It’s hard to understate what a big impact this has on making the company feel like a family, in the good way.
This is a really interesting book, they take the HR concept and expand it into being everything to help the people side of the bussiness work more efficient. The results sound simple, by the challenge is how to apply them for which the book gives some stories including things which go bad as well as things which go well.
We all want our work to matter. Nothing is a more powerful motivator than to know that you are making a difference in the world.
The book highlights that if you feel like a founder then you will be more invested into the work, you will want everything to improve and you will feel empowered to get things changed. If you trust people to want to make things better then you have to make space and support to allow them to do it. Additionally if you trust people then you should not be afraid to share information with them. By simply sharing data and being transparent performance improves. The book has the point “Give people slightly more trust, freedom, and authority than you are comfortable giving them. If you’ve not nervous you haven’t given them enough.”
People are the most important part of your bussiness. Without them you have nothing. Peoples abilities are not a normal distribution, it is a power-law as such the best performers perform dis-proportionally better.
Personal development is key to improving your workforce, however if this is ties into performance management then people shut down to constructively improving things. It is only possible for people to be receptive to development if there is no consequence on pay etc.
Focus on the worst performing 5%, by helping them they might be able to become average employees. If they continue to struggle then they either the position or the company which is not the right fit for them. Study your top performers and see what they are doing which others can learn from – get them to teach others, if they teach they reflect on their own work and can actually learn from themselves as well.
There are many things which companies can provide with no cost to the company but help the employees hugely – e.g. a barbers van, which saves the people time outside of work, or speakers which just generally require a space to present. However there are times when people need support, such as the birth of a baby or the death of a partner – at these times the company should be generous to support during these times. Celebrate success with gifts and experiences as people will remember them longer.
The benefit from your top performers dis-proportionally more than the average so you should pay people based on the value they add.
There are ways to get more of what you want, e.g. aiding new starters get up to speed quicker by giving the manager a checklist. Use data, surveys and checklists to get the improvements you are looking for.
The more you give the more people expect, but when you are trying things out brand them as temporary or as a trial so that you set the expectations and people know what to expect and to know that things don’t last forever.
The challenge to all of these is that things might go wrong – this is a risk that they knowingly make and although things do go wrong the amount of good far out weighs that. The book spends a long time talking about culture and that what you do should reflect your values.
The book presents the Why, What, How model and how this applies to businesses. Businesses where the products that they produce and how they produce them echo the why the company exists have a much clearer and easier to understand message for customers and employees to understand and to be passionate about. The book presents an easy way to imagine this which he terms the celery test.
The Celery Test – the example presented is if you go to the supermarket and have celery, rice milk, Oreos and M&Ms in your basket if someone looks at this they would have no idea why you are buying them. If your why was to be healthy then you would only buy the celery and rice milk. Now imagine that these different items are products or ideas, if you have lots of different products but they don’t follow your why then people will have no idea why you are making all of these products where as if you start with why and if everything reinforces your why then it is extremely clear to people what your companies Why is.
There were a number of interesting stories in the book talking about people such as Steve Jobs and Apples why of revolutionising through technology, Martin Luther King and his I have a dream not I have a plan speech, and more.
One thing which was really interested was how commodity products only differentiate each other on the smallest of additional features. People are not passionate about companies which produce commodity products, they buy them purely on a comparison basis next to another product. This is a fine bussiness but it will never be an amazing business.
The most interesting thing for me was why bussiness succession often fails. If you think about Bill Gates stepping down and Steve Ballmer taking over, Bill is strongly a why person but he needs what and how people around him to succeed. Steve appeared to be a natural successor, knowing the bussiness inside and out but Steve was not a Why person, he was a what and how person and as such when he took over he was not someone who was able to take on the role Bill provided at Microsoft – the why the company existed and its motivation for the future.
Businesses are designed to be stable – shareholders want predictable growth and returns. However for a bussiness to catch the next big wave this is counter to stability. To internally grow a new bussiness it is likely to result in a reduction of the current results. To facilitate the growth of a new bussiness line extreme care needs to be taken to prevent innovation stagnation or from competition from other companies.
Most of the revenue and profits are generated in this zone. The aim of this zone is to drive the top line sales numbers. Here products are stable and customers are relatively loyal. Each bussiness here constitutes > 10% of the total enterprise revenue. Here if our current plan is failing we can do one of three things:
When a new fledgling bussiness comes along it is critical that this becomes the number one priority. It has to scale to >10% within a maximum of 3 years else it will be suffocated by the other bussiness lines. This means hitting targets is now the second priority as failing to scale the new bussiness line will mean that you will have missed the opportunity and all of the work to get it to this stage will have been wasted, additionally this bring on of a new bussiness line is a temporary upheaval which should return higher profits in the future.
The first principle of zone defence is that you must never attempt to disrupt yourself. As an established enterprise, your number-one asset is the inertial momentum of your installed customer base. Your number-two asset is an ecosystem of partners that makes its living adding value to your established offerings.
“Successful disruptions disrupt other companies’ bussiness, not their own.” If you are being attacked your target should be to neutralise the opposition (e.g. taxi firms using ride haling apps to counter Uber). These neutralisation assets could come from work you are doing in the incubation zone.
Source of revenue vs channel of revenue. Each cell must be accounted for, not just the rows and columns. The rows must be >10% of the revenue to be taken seriously. As such only things in the performance zone are present here.
The aim of the productivity zone is to improve the bottom line numbers. Here all of the functions which do not have direct accountability for revenue – such as Accounting, marketing, supply chain. The aim of the zone is
Regulatory compliance – Culture, values and tone set the direction of compliance with oversight, detection and remediation to correct. You have to design compliance in and monitor it vigilantly.
When budgeting these functions should be separate from the budget for other bussiness units since all other zones use their function – each bussiness unit should not need to estimate how much of the shared service they will use.
One key thing in this zone is to consider the end of life of bussiness units when it would be better to use the internal resource on something which brings the company more value. The best way is to have an end of life shared service since killing products is a specialist task.
This is the place for ideas which are several years out. The ideas in the incubation zone should not be incremental of what you have currently (this is for the performance zone), these are for things which could grow into being their own credible disruptive innovation delivering billions of dollars of revenue within a decade. In the incubation zone it should build a highly competitive product into a bussiness with between 1-2% of the companies revenue, so this needs the best people. These are businesses in their own rights with specialist sales, marketing and competitive services to compete against other startups.
The businesses in this zone are overseen by a venture board, here they decide on investment into independent operating units. Each unit is run the same way as a startup with venture-funding and milestones. Space in the incubation zone is limited so if a unit fails its technology should be assimilated into existing products and the team moved on. Successful units then have the option to move to the transition zone, if it is not already occupied, the technology could be introduced into an existing line of products, the unit could be spun off as a start up, sold (though seeking buyers might be a distraction) or shut down.
When bringing on a new bussiness unit into the main bussiness it will cause problems for your existing bussiness. As an example your sales teams don’t have the contacts to sell these products. Things in the transformation zone will under-deliver in the short term, but the aim of this is long term gain and bussiness stability.
The majority of the time the transformation zone is empty, a bussiness can not cope with such huge change very often. The most important thing to do is to complete the transformation than to make the current numbers – the growth of this bussiness unit is the businesses future, not its present. A company can only undertake one transformation at a time, taking on two at the same time will be too much for the company to bare. For the transformation to be successful every leader in the company must be aligned with the transformation.
From the moment a unit enters the transformation zone until it gets to 10% of revenue it will be a very destabilising forces within the company – above 10% it starts to stand on its own.
Creativity, Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration by Ed Catmull
I found this book a really interesting read, partially as it is a familiar story to us but from the inside you get a very different perspective. The focus on success never being a guarantee and that everything is random are two particularly powerful points. Without a random sequence of events Pixar would not be what it is, Disney animation studio would still be struggling and the world would be a much worse place as a result.
The book starts with the story of how Pixar came into existence from being part of Lucasfilm then being sold to Steve Jobs. At the time the company made hardware then evolved into software until the movies it is famous for today. The challenges the book go through are similar to any growing company or one which stagnates but it also tells the personal stories of Ed Catmull (the author), John Lasseter and Steve Jobs.
Unleashing creativity requires that we loosen the controls, accept risk, trust our colleagues, work to clear the path for them, pay attention to anything that creates fear. Doing all these things won’t necessarily make the job of managing a creative culture easier. But ease isn’t the goal; excellence is.
The book has a chapter with the following points, but I have added some of my own notes from the book to the end.
Give a good idea to a mediocre team, and they will screw it up. Give a mediocre idea to a great team, and they will either fix it or come up with something better. If you get the team right the chances are that they’ll get the idea right.
When hiring people, give their potential to grow more weight than their current skill level. What they will be capable of tomorrow is more important than what they can do today.
Always try to hire people who are smarter than you. Always take a chance on better, even if it seems like a potential threat.
If there are people in your organisation who feel they are not free to suggest ideas, you loose. Do not discount ideas from unexpected sources. Inspiration can, and does, come from anywhere.
It isn’t merely to be open to ideas from others. Engaging the collective brainpower of the people you work with is an active, ongoing process. As a manager, you must coax ideas out of your staff and constantly push them to contribute.
There are many valid reasons why people aren’t candid with one another in a work environment. Your job is to search for these reasons and then address them.
Likewise, if someone disagrees with you, there is a reason. Our first job is to understand the reasoning behind their conclusions.
Further, if there is fear in an organisation, there is a reason for it – our job is (a) to find what’s causing it, (b) to understand it, and (c) to try to root it out.
There is nothing quite as effective, when it comes to shutting down alternative viewpoints, as being convinced you are right.
In general, people are hesitant to say things which might rock the boat. Braintrust meetings, dailies, postmortems, and Notes Day are all efforts to reinforce the idea that it is okay to express yourself. All are mechanisms of self-assessment that seek to uncover what is real.
Many managers feel that if they are not notified of a problem before others are or if they are surprised in a meeting, then that is a sign of disrespect. Get over it.
Careful “messaging” to downplay problems makes you appear to be lying, deluded, ignorant, or uncaring. Sharing problems is an act of inclusion that makes employees feel invested in the larger enterprise.
The first conclusion we draw from our success and failure are typically wrong. Measuring the outcome without evaluating the process is deceiving.
Do not fall for the illusion that by preventing errors, you won’t have errors to fix. The truth is, the cost of preventing errors is often far greater than the cost of fixing them.
Change and uncertainty are part of life. Our job is not to resist them but to build the capability to recover when unexpected events occur. If you don’t always try to uncover which is unseen and understand its nature, you will be ill prepared to lead.
Similarly, it is not the managers job to prevent risk. It is the managers job to make it safe to take them.
Failure isn’t a necessary evil. In fact, it isn’t evil at all. It is a necessary consequence of doing something new.
Trust doesn’t mean that you trust that someone won’t screw up – it means you trust them even when they do screw up.
The people ultimately responsible for implementing a plan must be empowered to make decisions when things go wrong, even before getting approval. Finding and fixing problems is everyone’s job. Anyone should be able to stop the production line.
The desire for everything to run smoothly is a false goal – it leads to measuring people by the mistakes they make rather than by their ability to solve problems.
Don’t wait for things to be perfect before you show them to others. Show early and show often. It’ll be pretty when we get there, but it won’t be pretty along the way. And that’s as it should be.
A company’s communication structure should not mirror its organisational structure. Everyone should be able to talk to anybody.
Be wary of making too many rules. Rules can simplify life for manager, but they can be demeaning to the 95% who behave well. Don’t create rules to rein in the other 5% – address abuse of common sense individually. This is more work but ultimately healthier.
Imposing limits can encourage a creative response. Excellent work can emerge from uncomfortable or seemingly untenable circumstances.
An organisation, as a whole, is more conservative and resistant to change than the individuals who comprise it. Do not assume that general agreement will lead to change – it takes substantial energy to move a group, even when all are on board.
The healthiest organisations are made up of departments whose agenda differ but whose goals are interdependent. If one agenda wins, we all lose.
Our job as managers in creative environments is to protect new ideas from those who don’t understand that in order for greatness to emerge, there must be phases of not-so-greatness. Protect the future, not the past.
New crises are not always lamentable – they test and demonstrate a company’s values. The process of problem-solving often bonds people together and keeps the culture in the present.
Excellence, quality, and good should be earned words, attributed by others to us, not proclaimed by us about ourselves.
Don’t confuse the process with the goal. Working on our processes to make them better, easier, and more efficient is an indispensable activity and something we should continually work on – but it is not the goal. Making the product is the goal.
Stick to your beliefs – if you pride yourself in producing quality products, don’t let anyone make you make a low quality product.
Trust, candor and respect are very important thing to develop,but they need a focus as they can disappear without people realising. A group of people who highly respect each other and are prepared to be completely open and honest results in a product which is of a superior quality – in Pixar this includes the Brain trust.
From an early age in life people are taught that failure is bad – this is not the case failure is learning, and you will learn more from failure than you will from accidentally being successful.
“You’ve got to feed the beast” – for Disney these were animators, these are the people who your paying to do the work so people keep them busy doing stuff. Controlling the beast is important and sometimes ideas need to be protected.
People at Pixar don’t have contracts, they are there because they want to be and can leave at any time. This also means that instead of waiting for peoples contracts to expire, and to not renew them, conversations between management and employees happen as soon as they are needed.
Peoples brains are wires in a manner than things need to be explained. Humans don’t like the idea of randomness but ran random events happen all of the time. It is natural to assume that your product was a success because the team was great, but it could just have been you were lucky.
As people move higher up they see less. The position you are in means that people act differently around you and the issues you are looking for are hidden from you. You don’t understand what is happening on the “shop floor” as it is complicated, it is not possible to understand everything but additional view points should be considered additive and not dictatorial.
Even though people like getting a bonus they enjoy being shaken by the hand and appreciated as much or more than the money.
Hindsight is not 20-20, we know more about the past but we still interpret things differently as shown by two people recanting the same story. These are based on our own internal models. We also fill in the gaps and try to draw conclusions – some of which will be too sweeping.
Research is key – the best way to be in a creative world is to be immersed into the environment you need to be creative within. So in Pixars case if you need to animate a flamingo the best way is to go to the zoo to observe one. This also prevents derivative work and not new creativity.
The book has details of Steve Jobs role with Pixar. Other than taking it over from Lucasfilms he ensured that it was strong against Disney which was many times its size. One of the key achievements was its flotation – right after its first full length film. Steve knew that once the film was launched Disney would want to renegotiate soon after the success of the first film, to ensure that Pixar had a strong hand he needed to build up the finances and do this by floating the company at a very astute time.
The book has a very interesting description of the process of the merger between Pixar and Disney. How Steve Jobs wanted to ensure the survival of Pixar and he could not see it being independent since it lacked distribution and marketing ability. Disney was the perfect match but the risk was Pixar would be subsumed into the Disney animation studio and squashed – Steve knew this and to protect Pixar he ensured that the management of Pixar took a lead at Disney Animation.
The goal talks though the conversion of a manufacturing plant which had been running using cost accounting and its embracing of Lean manufacturing. The way the book is presented is quite novel in that its presentation is as a story where you go on a journey with the plant manager as he faces being closed down.
Through the course of the book Kanban is presented and applied to the plant. The book covers things such as challenging the productivity views of robotics, showing how the entire productivity of the plant is dictated by its bottlenecks, that you need excess capacity and you can’t run everything at 100% without building up large amounts of inventory which may or may not be sold.
The production line approach, made famous by Ford for the production of cars, was an extremely efficient form of production because of the flow of work but for such a system you need large volumes to warrant a dedicated line. The aim of lean manufacturing is to take the idea of flow and apply it in environments where the volumes are not sufficiently large to warrant their own production line.
Flow is key to shipping products to costumers – the key is to reduce the time from when a customer places an order to the point where we get the money for it.
This does not work with traditional local optimisations. This usually means large batch sizes since the set up of the machine is likely to be significant and traditionally people then try to produce as much of the parts as possible from the single set up. This results in large amount of in progress inventory which adds no value in its current form. Additionally the larger the batch the longer the parts need to wait – 99% of the lead time to produce a product can just be it waiting to be processed. To facilitate flow it is key that the focus on these machines is to improve the the efficiency of the set up time so that the machine is able to produce smaller batches which reduce the amount of over produced inventory and the waiting time thus reducing costs and lead time.
When there is an issue with flow inventories accumulate and the order lead time increases and reduces bussiness cash flow. One way to improve flow is by limiting space, this prevents the building up of large inventories. This is counter to previous approaches since limiting space means that not every worker will be busy all of the time, only bottlenecks will have the high levels of utilisation. By stopping people work it quickly highlights any issues in the flow and these can then be resolved. This means that the focus is always of making the bottlenecks more efficient – which is key since any time lost at a bottleneck will impact the output/productivity of the entire site. Things such as putting quality control before the bottleneck will improve the throughput since the bottleneck won’t work on parts which will be rejected later. Ensuring the bottleneck is able to run none stop, such as by splitting breaks so that people can cover it continuously.
The challenge of small production quantities and small buffers is that gridlock could happen where parts are not available for assembly when the space is already filled up. A solution for used in Kanban is instead of restricting buffer space between manufacturing steps the amount of products which can be produced are. The Kanban system uses the idea that when you want to ship something to the customer this triggers all of the preceding steps required to manufacture the product. The way this is achieved is through the use of cards, these cards are passed from the end of the production line towards the beginning each one triggering the manufacturing of the parts required to produce the product which is trying to be constructed.
Lean can not be applied to all industries, because of the time it takes for Kanban to produce an efficient manufacturing process it only works for products which do not change for a significant period of time – this works better in a car plan where new models are only released once a year. Additionally Lean does not work where the products are produced sporadically – because of the buffers the product needs to be being produced on a continuing basis. Lean also only works where the mix of products being produces are fairly consistent. Any of these three will reduce the effectiveness of lean.
How to Recruit and Hire Great Software Engineers: Building a Crack Development Team by Patrick McCuller
You should be hiring people with the right attitude and the capability to learn, master and teach since although you know what you are doing now you don’t know what you’ll be doing 1,3,5 or 10 years from now.
Hire top performers, hiring anything less than the best will hurt your bussiness. Talent bring talent, incompetence repels talent. A mediocre or low performer will not aid the team and will actually diminish its performance though having to deal with messed up projects or missed deadlines. It is generally easy to identify low performers and exceptionally high performers, the challenge comes with the mediocre ones – once hired these people are very difficult to remove because they are not doing anything wrong they are just not capable of performing at the high levels which you need. Top performers perform between 10 to 16 times more than an average one.
Understand your current pool of talent, ask them to periodically update their CVs to map out the teams current knowledge and experience. Knowing who is in the team will identify holes in the team if they need filling and will help you focus your recruitment if you need to replace someone. Critically the profile needs to look at leadership, experience (tenure, technologies etc), style (cautious, quick, adventurous, perfectionist) and roles (build engineer, tool engineer, user interface developer etc). Engineers have two preferences, either creators or optimisers. As a project changes from the start-up/creation phase into the optimisation phase this might mean that the people in the team needs to change to ensure that the engineers are still being suitably challenged.
Hire ahead where possible – the pressure of hiring someone urgently to fill a role will always lower quality through subconscious if not though concious bias.
First hires on a team are critical – you need engineers who are leaders and great communicators, who inspire the team both technically and on a personal level developing and coaching them.
Its a race – how quickly can you hire? because if someone else can hire quicker the candidate might be off the market before you have got very far through your process. Look at the process, the barriers and try to reduce the process to as short a time as possible – could you go from candidate to decision in one day? Can you speed things up, remove steps or reject candidates earlier? There are ways to make things quicker without lowering the quality of the candidates.
Candidates as customers. Candidates will be more likely to work for a company with a simple and enjoyable hiring process. If your candidates experience is exceptional, they will notice, talk and refer others to you. You will turn down a lot of candidates so if they are treated well rejected candidates can still spread the word about your company. So ask the candidates how they found the process, see what they say and improve things. By being as open with the candidate as possible they will know what to expect and so can perform at their best – provide a guide for the candidate to know what the steps of the process are. During the interview the words chosen should be straightforward – uncommon or complicated words should be avoided, not just for people for who the interviewing language is not their first language but for all candidates. There are some people who should just not be allowed to interview – for whatever reason they are not the suitable, these people should not be forced to interview as these people will leave a bad experience with the candidates.
Passive candidates need wooing – this might be extra steps such as a getting to know you phone call, speaking with developers, pre screening etc. Reduce the barriers to entry – such as not requiring a fully up to date CV however all candidates should be treated fairly. Don’t make exceptions for one if you are not prepared to make exceptions to all.
Active candidates contain a large number of people who can’t hold down a job, don’t have sufficient skills (e.g. new graduates). These sort of candidates gain a lot of experience at being interviewed.
Job descriptions are not inspiring – why would anyone work for a company based on a job description. If your target is passive candidates especially then they will either ignore or not care for the job description, so how can you attract such people but still provide them with the details of what they will be doing? A passion statement, this shows the passion for the company – Why are they doing what they are doing? Why should people work for you? and don’t present it in a dull form.
Great software engineers know other great software engineers, tapping into their network is immensely powerful but engineers themselves are usually not very good at seeing or networking. Additionally it is likely that their immediate group of contact are not looking for a job but encouraging them to speak about your company both to their immediate network and their wider network (friends of friends) is a great way to spread the word about your company.
Recruiters want to make money, if you reject all of their candidates they will not send you any more. The best way to improve this is better explain the candidate you are looking for to them, to explain the company, to help them better understand what you are looking for. The more information they have the more suitable candidates they will send to you and thus the better the candidates the more you will hire and the more money they will make. So spending time with recruiters is a great way to improve the quality of the source of candidates. Just remember that because the recruiter is incentivised to hire people they are likely to do whatever they can to help the candidate get the job (such as leaking interview questions etc).
Contract hires, instead of a long laborious interview process hire more freely on a short term contact then if they are performing well look to give them a permanent contract. To the author this has always turned out to be counter productive and a distraction rather than a benefit.
Unfortunately it is part of the concious for people to want to hire people “just like them”, this introduces bias be it sexism, ageism, universityism etc these are a challenge so when people say why they should not hire someone try to get to the root of it. For new starters working in another country it is likely that this bias is even greater. Don’t bother searching the internet for details about a candidate – it is as likely that you will find out irreverent information as relevant information, as such the risk of bias is greatly increased. Consider if the interviewer actually needs to have seen the CV or not – if the interview is competency based then there is no need for a CV then they should not see it since this will introduce additional unneeded bias. The HR team should redact any information which is not important to the hiring process and could introduce bias – such as gender, age, marital status etc.
Identify the source of the candidate, where you get a good source spend more time getting candidates through that source. Different recruitment companies and even recruiters have different approaches so try to focus on the ones which work best for you.
Lower the barrier to entry. Do you really need 6 years of Java experience? CV screening is quick simple and cheap – but this drastically reduces your pool of candidates for no good reason. Someone doing the same project for 6 years gaining Java experience is very different to someone working for 2 years on a variety of projects. Interviewing is expensive but it is better to look at your interview process, such as telephone interviews, rather than being harsh on CV content. When going through CVs look for positive points, negative point and neutral points. If the positive outweigh the negative then the candidate is worth interviewing. Positive items are things such as length of experience, relevant experience, variety of experience, education, computer science experience (such as university but specifically computer science rather than just Java courses), patents and publications (though reading these is not recommended), responsibility. Negative items are “wall of words” but not saying what the individual did, lengthy CV and quickly changing companies. Things to discard when reviewing a CV, things such as breaks in service, irrelevant information, small spelling or grammatical errors – especially when dealing with people who’s first language is not English.
Telephone screening provides its own challenges because of the unnatural narrow band of communication. A simple problem can become difficult and a tricky problem can become impossible over the phone. Asking open questions such as about recent projects can just use up valuable interview time because the power is passed to the candidate. Posing coding questions should be short, typically 30 seconds and can be conveyed without confusion and the answer to which are just a few lines long. An alternative is to use a shared screen so that there is no room for confusion.
To maximise the use of interviews ensure that there is some coordination over who is going to ask which questions to prevent repetition. Four or five experienced interviewers are the optimal number. When handing over the candidate don’t discuss the candidate to prevent bias. Gain feedback from interviewers independently before discussing the candidate.
If the candidate says that they are suffering from outside stress offer to reschedule the interview for a time when they are better able to focus on the interview process. During interviews candidates will be at their best. As an example if the candidates English is a challenge it is likely to be worse once they are hired, however a thick accent should be forgiven since after a day or two of working with the individual you will quickly get used to the way they speak. If the candidate makes inappropriate jokes or comments these are likely to be more prevalent once they start. If the candidate has strange mannerisms (such as restless legs etc) these can be medical conditions or stress induced and should be ignored. If there is silence then let it happen, this could be the way the candidate thinks and so you should be happy to let a little time pass for the candidate to focus. A large number of candidates lie, if you suspect a lie push it a bit to find out more – it is likely the candidate will admit to a misunderstanding however if the candidate gets caught up in their own lie the author has highlighted the issue and contradictions and then ends the interview process. Candidates expect certain questions, if you ask questions which are similar to these but are not the same then the candidate might inadvertently answer the wrong question in which case you should highlight the difference to clear the confusion up for the candidate. Where possible get them to do the job you will expect them to do and see how they get on, for jobs where you can’t do this ask them questions about their past jobs but remember it is likely the responses will be on the positive side. The book goes into many more details about interview questions than I am going to cover here.
Interviewers are only able to asses people of a similar level – it is very hard for a junior developer to asses the difference between a senior and a principle developer. This can be a real issue where you are looking to recruit a competency into a team that you don’t currently have as people will be recruiting outside of their field of expertise. Training interviewers through shadowing, classes and workshops, documentation and guides, coaching, practice interviews and then once they are actually interviewing candidates to continue to provide feedback so they are always improving. It is especially important to get interviewers to understand between domain knowledge and capabilities, if the candidate does not have the knowledge but has the capabilities then they will quickly pick up the knowledge.
Hire the best engineers you can afford and keep going till you run out of money/budget. During hiring there is always a margin of error. Hiring a poor performer is quickly correctable, you can just let them go. It is difficult to fire someone for doing just and “all-right” job. Hire the candidate is all of the things you want and nearly none of the things you don’t. “Nice” people are not enough, they need to have capability the nice people who are pleasant to everyone but when they start have no capability to do the work are the hardest to let go. You should never hire people who: slam former employers, severely irritates anyone, lies or deceives, ignores goals. Never hire below your standard, the hire will have impact for their entire tenure at the company which could exceed your own.
Feedback can give the option for a candidate to argue about an already made decision and potentially could give the option for a legal challenge. As such, if the HR team do not already have guidelines of what you say, the author recommends giving more generic feedback such as “You were not a great match today. Gain some more experience, hone your skills-coding, design and so on and consider applying again in a year or two”.
Keep and analyse records – not just of the candidates but of the recruiters. Review the data regularly. If you hire someone then let them go, was there any data which could have given you the information earlier? If a candidate performs really well were there things which you could pick up on to help identify this earlier? etc.
The amount you pay developers falls between the bounds of local market rate at the lower end up to creating golden handcuffs at the top. If you want great developers you need to pay them appropriately but over paying people will mean people who should not take the job take it only for the money and get tied in so they can not leave. Decide what your offer is and make it, this should be the maximum which you feel would be appropriate and explain this to the candidate so they know their is no room for negotiation. Make sure that you hire at the appropriate level, someone being interviewed for a developer role who is at a principle level will sail through the interview but they are not right for that role. Let the candidate speak to others on your team, even after the interview process, by being open and honest with them they are more likely to feel that they have made the right choice. If the candidate does not respond within a week don’t assume that they are not interested, instead get the highest person in the company you can to call to speak to the candidate as a sell call – this will set your company apart for a candidate who might get a couple of offers and your CEO has phones to speak to them.
The recruitment process is not over until the candidate is settled into their new job. Once they accept send a welcome email to them, giving them details about the work they will be doing – a large number of candidates will be passionate to know about some of the technologies they will be using before they actually start and will do some investigation at home. For people who relocate they will need even more help with things which you take for granted, e.g. where to rent a place or where shops are etc speak to them before they begin to see what help you can give them. Think about the first day – make sure they have a desk, their network account is set up, arrange for people to go out for lunch – everything you can do to make the new starter fell welcomed and part of the team. Try to arrange things for their first week to get them to start settling in this should cover the team, bussiness and technologies. Perhaps give them a peer mentor that they can chat to, someone who is an aspiring leader will usually enjoy taking on this role. Everyone is different and so will need to be treated a little differently to help them fit in.
Top talent want top talent requiring jobs, if you hire top talent make sure that the work they are doing is suitable. The things which turn off top talent are incompetent developer and low quality work.
The book lifts the lid a little on what goes on at Google. There are a number of insights which I found particularly interesting and a number of interesting anecdotes (such as the Google withdrawal from China).
Bussiness plans are out of date as soon as the ink dries. Although it is good to think about where you are going, having a fixed and ridged plan of how you are going to get there is never going to suceed.
Hire great people, pay them well and let them get on with it without standing in their way will lead to creativity which you did not expect. The best smart creatives have the potential for disproportionate impact.
CEOs should make or be involved in product launches, acquisitions, public policy. The key skill of a CEO of senior leader is to know which decisions to make and which to let run their course.
Make sure you are working on the right things – spend 70% of time on the thing which is making you the money (not the thing which might in the future), spend 20% on what you think the next thing will be and 10% on speculative ideas which may or may not pay out.
The best products are successful because of technical factors, not business ones. This explains why products such as Google Reader got closed down (which just presents RSS) and Google News (which aggregates data sources and identifies similar stores) was not.
Never think, we have put a lot of time and money into this so we have to make is a success. If something is not going the way it should kill it as soon as you realise it. Since there should be technical insight it is not likely to be a complete waste, it is likely some of the components are still useful for different projects.
Competitive advantages don’t last long. As such for companies to last a long time they need a “grow fast strategy”
The book refers to defaulting to open a large number of times. They explain how they feel this drives better products and that allowing people to build on the success of open tools, platforms etc drives innovation and improves things much quicker than if things are closed.
The defaulting to open also refers to not locking people in – if you lock people in so they can’t leave then it does not encourage you to innovate and as such a competition can come along and produce a much better product. This is clear from Google search where people can easily go to a competitor so by having a low barrier for the customer to change forces the company to focus on product quality.
Don’t follow competitors but do use them as motivators to keep you focused on product improvements. They gave the example of Bing and how this encouraged them on to innovate even more in search such as Google Instant Search.
If you want to know what you can do to change the world (or even your own career) think about where things will be 5 to 10 years in the future. How are things going to get from here to there, what is missing and what opportunities does this present. Thinking 5 to 10 years into the future self driving cars are extremely likely, but when Google kicked off their autonomous driving program there was not clear way how or who would get there.

Well, I can tell you from my own personal experience, ain’t nothing in this world smells, tastes and feels better that your own mom’s pussy! The boy in this video obviously knows that, cos sure is paying much needed attention to his mother’s cock hungry pussy. She looks like a real horny, underfucked lady in her late 40s and that my friends, is the perfect age to get you mom to have an incest sex with you! Don’t you just love the way she sucks his dick, rides it and lets him fuck her cunt doggy style! This video is a great preview of what’s inside this site!
Reyna Amaya rolled in with her friend and YouTube cohort Lou Lou to riff along with us. A few minutes in, Mitcz invites Lou Lou to join in, and we have ourselves a raucous and fascinating 2-hour, 4-person riff session that will blow your mind and hurt your stomach from laughter. Enjoy, cause we sure as hell did.
Mike "bobby helmet" Hume brings out the HUMEn race for this riff session. We discuss sex as a revenge tactic, tupac & biggie, how commercials are evidence of corporate malfeasance, fifty shades of grey and Mitcz's disdain for written erotica, and we have a lengthy discussion about transgendered people which leads to a riveting discussion about female artists and the male ego.
STOYA - the Adult Entertainment and acrobatic extraordinaire - makes a stop through the Riffin Studios for some awesome riffin on her recent trip to Russia, her other trip to Japan, holographic Tupac, life "in the biz", we get into a heated discussion about the Simpsons and the real location of Springfield, a fascinating story about an iced bag of corn... and, ohhh so much more. This isn't silly porno-pandering, this is riffalicious.
This episode with Jackie Monahan could be summed up with : Michael McDonald, Beyonce's fake baby, YeVaughnie, Anal play, and fake orgasms. Oh, but there's so much more. And it's pure insanity. Jackie Monahan brought the riff and inspired some lovely madness.

When it’s time to buy an investment property, most would-be real estate investors think that it’s as simple as going to a bank, filling out some paperwork and getting a mortgage. While that may have been true back in 2004 and 2005, that’s not how it’s done today. In fact, if you need purchase-money funds, good luck getting them from a bank!
So how and where do you get the money you need to fund a real estate investing deal? Easy answer – the money is all around you! Do you think anyone likes keeping their money in the bank, where they’re only earning around 1% interest? Think about it: Inflation is at 4%; this means that someone with money in the bank is actually going backward 3% each year!
The big question is: What would make someone want to loan you the money to do a deal? First, the lender needs to make a much better return than he can make at a bank. Second, his loan must be safe, and by safe, I mean that it’s secured by a whole bunch of collateral!
Your next question is probably this: Where do I get the collateral? From your deal, of course! Over the years, Kim and I have done a good bit of lending. When someone brings us a deal where the collateral offered is a solid property that doesn’t need a lot of work and they’re buying it for forty-cents-on-the-dollar, we’re usually good to go. But if it’s a stinker of a deal – in other words, the collateral isn’t very good – there’s no way we – or anyone else – will lend the needed purchase-money funds.
Do you think you could find the money to do a deal if you were willing to pay 10% interest or maybe you were willing to give the lender 25% of the deal? Outside-the-box thinking isn’t good enough any more. If you want to be a successful real estate investor, you must remember that there is no box!
Let’s look at two deals we recently did and see how each was creatively funded without going to a bank.
We wanted to buy a property at the August foreclosure auction in Bartow County. Our top-offer price was around $80,000. Problem was, we were exactly $80,000 light of having the $80,000 we needed to do the deal. So we found a money partner and offered him a percentage of the profits. In exchange, he loaned us the purchase money, which was secured by the property.
Back in May, we found a sensational home that could be a great rental property. The owner’s asking price was a fair $65,000. There was only one problem – yep, you guessed it – we were $65,000 light. To make the deal work, we asked the homeowner to finance the property to us at 5% interest for 30 years. He readily agreed because if he put his money in the bank, the bank would only pay him 1% interest. This was a win-win deal. We got owner financing on a property that would cash flow $360 a month, and the seller got a 5% return on his money, secured by the property.
The best way to learn how to creatively fund your deals is by hanging out with experienced investors who are not just surviving, but thriving in this market!

He wanted to suck me too and soon enough, we were in 69 position. Nearing the last step he put his big hands around her petite waist and abruptly dropped off the last step, at the same igrl he pushed her down hard on his cock. "Oh no, please.
She had seen so many kids get hauled away and never return. "Fuck. His right hand was circling her thighs, while the other one was cupping one meaty breast, holding up her torso. She still held his softening cock as she waited for him to turn his attention to her.
Sam used both arms to propel her chest upward to her daughters receiving mouth. He looked like a wild animal. There we were, two naked wet schoolgirls about to mastrubate togethor it was like something out of a porno.
The young girl nervously entered the office and looked around, "hello. Sir Alec and the other two were leaving. " Brandon just smiled to himself, knowing that it would feel much more amazing very soon. It was slightly stronger than Colleen's had smelled. Are you sure you want to stay ?" "Yes, mom.
Well, Jesus did say broad is the path to destruction and there be many therein , and narrow is the path to life and there be few that find it..
It's pretty simple, dude. What you need to do is simply relate it how it is and not make it up. Speaking out on policy is NOT "aiming" and Democrats are notorious for what you call "aiming". We don't have to look far, as I just showed you. So quit throwing stones from glass houses.
It only kills them if they are taken word for word literally. However, they are meant to convey a deeper truth. The biblical version of creation can be interpreted as a parable, not meant to convey how the world was created, but by Whom.
Exactly!! Love is the very foundation of Christianity, yet so many Christians want to play judge and juror. Sad state the church is in.
If you consider the four greek virtues, and describe someone as "heartless" which virtue are they missing?
Really? Is syrup flammable or combustible? All kidding aside, that was a clever way of you saying that, if Trump thinks that they might attack us, his concern is unfounded (to be polite, like a Canadian would be, about it). I really hope, for the country's sake, that he wasn't actually implying that we could be attacked by our neighbors to the north.
My family and I lived in Hawaii for some years, while my kids were in primary school, and they got to see racial prejudice from the wrong side. It was no fun for either of them but tougher for my son.
BS geh. no one is talking about what happened before 200,000 years ago in these articles or discussion, except you. I never said anything about it. the ARTICLES and ori pdf state it.
Here, let google explain: ?cut sb some slack? in English. to not judge someone as severely as you usually would because they are having problems at the present time: "Andrew's late again." "Cut him some slack - his wife just had a baby."
If the lamp fell and hit something combustible (paper, cloth, etc) and simply set it afire by heat conduction, it wouldn't trip the breaker. Only an electrical issue in the lamp would (possibly). The best way to reduce this risk to to switch to LED light bulbs. They run much cooler than Incandescent or even CFL bulbs. They're also much more energy efficient and last a decade.
A porn star is a sex worker. Sex worker is another name used for females that are sexual prostitutes. Is there any difference ? They get paid to do the same thing.
"Sure, I gotta have dinner with my folks, but I'll check in after seven and see where you're at. His blood was pumping now and so he lost a little bit of control as he slapped her right tit.
Aye aye sir, she said. Thank you Daddy I will like that. "That was beautiful," Cyner commented, her fingers still playing with her impossibly wet pussy. Please Daddy I don't want to suck it. Michael looked in her eyes and knew differently. Sure enough, before long and without a word, Chloe began moving her hips back against her sister.
Couldn't agree with you more. No woman is ever a virgin after they give birth and it is not likely that a woman was a virgin before she gave birth.
Yet I would say that the good one Hawking or Teresa does for humanity as a whole outweighs the negatives of the others.
More than one-fifth of the nation's hospitals are operated by religious organizations. How many of our nation's hospitals are operated by atheist organizations?...
I've always tried to live my life exactly like god did. But, I kept getting arrested for drowning babies. I realized being an atheist is much more humane
The whole idea of supernatural gods and deities started in the minds of simple stone age peoples whos whole reference for life was experienced in the distance they could walk and what they could observe without the knowledge of science biology, maths and chemistry.

If you are distributing a demo version of your program, the preprocessor can be used to enable or disable portions of your program. The following portion of code shows how this task is accomplished, using the preprocessor directives #if and #endif:
When you are compiling the demo version of your program, insert the line #define DEMO_VERSION and the preprocessor will include the conditional code that you specified in the save_document() function. This action prevents the users of your demo program from saving their documents.
As a better alternative, you could define DEMO_VERSION in your compiler options when compiling and avoid having to change the source code for the program.
This technique can be applied to many different situations. For instance, you might be writing a program that will support several operating systems or operating environments. You can create macros such asWINDOWS_VER, UNIX_VER, and DOS_VER that direct the preprocessor as to what code to include in your program depending on what operating system you are compiling for.

You would not have expected that the stock markets would be so high, given where the oil price went. - Hilary Cook
Women are always being tested...but ultimately, each of us has to define who we are individually and then do the very best job we can to grow into it. - Hilary Clinton
When someone in law enforcement who is willing to speak the truth about racial profiling gets demoted for it, that's absolutely chilling. To manage any problem, we must first measure it. - Hilary Shelton
When I'm on tour, I'm in a new city every single night, and the energy and the crowds and the kids and the screaming and them knowing every single word of my music and being onstage is such an energetic feeling with a big payoff. - Hilary Duff
When I turned about 18 or 19, I was really ready to, like, stop being - stop being seen in this, like, perfect light. - Hilary Duff
My sense is that we all did as little kids. All of us lucky enough to have some exposure to animals as children have an affinity. I think it’s in our genes, as a part of the larger community of life. It’s only with urban civilization that we’ve moved away from that. For me, when I heard the voices of the humpback whales in my 20s, it drew me back to a place or a sense of relatedness that I’d had as a kid.
The protection and preservation of wild creatures; the humane treatment of captive creatures. I think this is an era in which animals have come back into our consciousness—particularly wild animals—we urgently need to reconnect with the whole life community. We are the youngest of all 20 million species on earth. Other creatures have wisdom as to how to be appropriate and harmonious in their environment which we haven’t yet learned. And there’s no guarantee whatever that our species is going to be a success story like these older species. We’re nature’s newest experiment, we’re maybe barely into our adolescence as a species and we’re by and large behaving as juvenile delinquents.

Thank you Sheri and Trina..wow I just read my last post..LOL..traveling really takes it out of me. So now I have to start changing my entire life again..in a place I find, where Bob never was. If I drove, I think I would stay here..I had forgotten about the horrible traffic..and the ridiculous price of homes in CA...but I want to live near my daughter, and I HATE the life sucking humidity here in OK. I found a few nice mobile homes...but now there might be a problem, cuz the realtor says loan companies don,t like to grant loans for mobile homes. What is left of my life seems to be spinning out of control.
I am reminded by an old song by Linda Rhonstadt...the lyrics are: “Time goes by like a train and the river..in a new place every day...time goes by like a train and the river..carrying our lives away”
Hey everyone...sorry imhaven,t posted..but I went to CA for a wedding and to look at possibilities for a new lace to live. I am so burnt out...I will b back when my brain functions again..but this is going to b a lot harder than I thought.
Btw, this is a horrible request, but I cannot find my checkbook. LOL I hid it, and failed to write down where I put it. LOL so if anyone has an “IN”. With the Gods of lost items, could you ask them where it might be? I cannot believe I just typed that. LOL. I am just too old to go on vacation..too much disruption. How the hell am I going to relocate if I can,t go on a simple 5 day trip?
Sheri.....That's pretty brave to book a trip by yourself to another country. I don't know if I'd ever be able to do that. I hope you have a peaceful journey.
I've been reading some of the posts...it's amazing how we all share the same experiences. Yes, weekends suck!!! It's like you get drawn down into a dark hole of feeling so alone and remembering all the horror. Yes, I turn on the TV the minute I get up and as soon as I get home. Just to have something in the background instead of silence. The music thing...I listen to a LOT of music...what I find is that I listen to music from before I knew my husband or what's new now. Listening to music from high school (Fleetwood Mac, all of that kind of thing), brings me back to before I had any idea of death. And I've discovered new artists that I like and there's no memory attached. Mainly, though the worst thing is just the feeling of being utterly alone with no one to really trust. I never felt that before I was married, but having now had it, and then having it ripped out from under me, makes you miss it. For me, looking forward to travel is my escape. I booked a trip by myself to Spain for 2 weeks at the end of the month. Leaving on the annv of Bill's death. I wanted to go somewhere that we hadn't been to. Lord, help all of us. We need it.
Mary Jane, I haven't been on this site for a while now, but I just read your last post. Nobody tells us anything! Or maybe they kind of do, but we have no idea what it means. Or can't believe what it could mean. If I had really known the outcome, I wouldn't have put Bill through the surgery, radiation, etc...but at the time we do the best with the information that we have. I felt the same way about the doctors, the people in the home where my Bill was only there for a couple of weeks (can you believe that I can't even remember the term for the place-I think I've blocked it)! The hospice people were really the only ones who explained anything to me. I have "flashbacks" when I drive the route that goes by the hospital/home/hospice. I pray to God that I never get sick because there is no way I want to go through what my husband did. Only thing I hang onto is that the glioblastoma made it so that he didn't really realize or at least was not in any pain. 10 weeks from diagnosis to death. I'm still reeling in a lot of ways, as I'm sure you are. It was two years ago right at this time. So, yes. Summer pretty much really sucks. I just wish that there was some way that we could prevent our thoughts from going to all the awfulness and instead only concentrate on the good times. If only there was a switch. I tell myself to be grateful every day for the 11 years that I had with him and that I'm able to keep going. I know that a lot of people are a lot worse off. I look for a lot of distractions. And lord knows I have enough work to get done. But it ain't easy.
Dear Linda ... My deepest condolences on the loss of your beloved husband. All of us here know exactly how you feel and grief is a journey we all must take. The things I learned from grief was I was stronger than I thought, but after 7 years of my dear Ernie passing from pancreatic cancer at the age of 65 I know I love him like no other and never will until we meet again. Until then I went through so many emotions in raw grief and it's all normal. I joined a grief group and it helped to physically see others in the same boat I was in. Still, my heart ached and I eventually found Legacy which saved my life. The people on here are so kind (my angels) and we all understand each other whether it's early grief, a few years down the road or several years. When one falls others will pick you up. Remember Linda, you are not alone and believe it or not your dear husband is right there with you seeing you over the rough spots.
We do not judge anyone who posts their feelings and there is always someone around who will answer your post. I would like to add although I miss my Ernie, I have volunteered and try to keep busy and do what I can with family and friends. No, it's not the same as when Ernie was around and when he left he took half my heart with him, but I have some life to live and keep on trying. Sometimes I even surprise myself when I laugh out loud.
Please come back and talk about anything you feel like. We're listening and we'll help you on this grief journey.
I am truly sorry for your loss. You are still in he very early stages of grief. In my experience the first few months were absolutely unbearable. Hang in there!
This is how I will always remember Joseph, the love of my life-: a ray of sunshine, happy, smiling, handsome, loving, and kind. Rest in peace, my love until I come to you.
I have been reading some of the comments and have really been touched. I lost my wonderful husband of 24 years on June 20 this year. He had IPF a fibrotic lung disease which slowly destroyed his breathing ability. The day he passed was strange but he said he was so tired of trying to breathe even with the extra help. He said he felt different. He wanted to make it to his 77th birthday, that was the day he went to the ER in the ambulance. I felt numb those few days before. I was busy helping him and the nurses. Our deacon Bill, prayed all morning Sunday, and then our priest gave him the Annointing of the Sick. He was awake all those days before he passed. He and the family decided to go Care and Comfort with Hospice. We told him we loved him and it was ok to go I would be alright. I was alone with him when I looked over at his face, and he had stopped breathing and was gone. Every day he said he loved me and was sorry I had to work so hard caring for him. I told him I loved him like had never loved anyone. We watched ROKU a lot and had family and friends over talked on the phone.This sharing site has helped me already.

Does it make sense that a backup of a system drive would take much longer if the source drive is IDE versus SATA? I'm backing up an IDE drive with about 30GB of data. It's taking about 2.5 hours. A similar backup of a SATA drive took only about 30 minutes. Both backups are being written to the same external USB drive. The backup is being performed 'cold,' using Ghost 15 to boot the computer.
It's not only the HDD speed, but the CPU and motherboard architecture that can influence speeds. Also, the USB controller on each system may be having an effect as opposed to the external HDD itself.
On my older system (2003), using DOS Ghost 2003 and internal PATA to PATA HDD backups of about 40 GB, it takes just over 1 hour. USB backup would likely take 3-4 hours--I don't do those!
My newer system (2011), using DOS Ghost 2003 and internal SATA to SATA HDD backups of about 50 GB takes about 40 minutes. I have not been able to use DOS USB drivers successfully on this system--so don't know how fast things might be.
Sorry, I'm not that technologically adept. However both the PATA and SATA drives were of the same system (at different times), so it seemed to me that 'all things were equal,' with the exception of the system drive.
Well, the controller chip for the PATA HDD is very likely a different controller chip on the motherboard from the SATA controller chip. Usually the newer technology SATA controller is on the North/South chip set that is tightly integrated with the CPU and motherboard architecture--while the PATA controller is present as an add-on chip to provide some compatibility with older technology--especially optical PATA IDE drives.

History and localization of beer snacks is very complicated and almost defy systematic description. The diversity of varieties and kinds of beer made this drink is universal, and therefore a…
In extreme conditions people can eat: the locusts, spiders, snakes, raw fish. But some people for such delicacies ready to shell out a tidy sum in a chic restaurant. Depending on Your wishes You will get something flying, creeping or yapping.
France: bats. On the streets of Vietnam you can find the most exotic dishes. What is the beating heart of a Cobra, soup from armadillos or the chicken hearts, marinated in pig’s blood. This “ambrosia” are not the invention of any of the wild inhabitants of the jungle. Just the opposite, all of these delights can be found only in the most expensive restaurants. The apotheosis of the exotic and incredibly expensive meal are meals from bats. Every self-respecting restaurant caught animals kept in a cage, and the customer is provided the right to choose.
Vending mouse then show criogenic in all its glory: to stretch the wings, and then one lightning strike her head cut off. Moreover, the blood from the wound decant into the glass, of course, for her to drink. The Vietnamese believe that the blood stimulates and strengthens virility. And experts say that meat bats taste akin to beef under sosomar.
Indonesia: dog filling . In those parts of Asia that can not boast of wealth, of man’s best friends really, really love. But not for the intelligent eyes and wagging tail, and, so to say, taste. Take care of your Friend, if you go on holiday with him. Your pet can just kidnap and roast you for dinner, shocking as it may sound. The owners of black dogs should be particularly vigilant because the islanders are convinced that their meat is not inferior to steam the veal.
Cambodia: tarantulas . If you find yourself in the town of Skuon near the capital of Cambodia, don’t faint when you stuck to sellers with trays and trays piled still alive, moving or already roasted “dish”. However, most emerging in Cambodia foreigners to “ping” have not matured yet. But local foodies wondered, why not to crunch such a tasty spider the size of a hand?
Not to say that modern Cambodians eat spiders from hunger. Even poor peasants. Not enough food: rice, fish, chickens, and pigs. Spiders they really like. Tarantula “a-ping” among the Cambodians are considered the same delicacy as caviar in the West. However, it still needs to properly prepare.
And cook them simply. First they need to kill. While there, first catch – to pull out of the hole and pull out the poisonous fangs. Then to kill by squeezing together the abdomen, so that they do not run away from the pan. Further claystone slowly roasted over an open fire (definitely wood) with the addition of large amounts of salt and garlic. When the chitin armor, in the normal state is black, will acquire a reddish-brown hue, – all spider with a crispy crust and very tender inside ready for use. It is preferably scalding hot. They say, tastes like chicken…
Hong Kong: monkey brains . Yes! Here it is considered a sophisticated dessert. And, before you can be on your table dish will be an incredibly complex procedure of preparation. Further reading is not for the faint of heart: the brain is served on the table directly in the head of the monkey. For this primacy is firmly fixed, shave, and then punch him in the head using a small hammer and chisel.
After the upper part of the skull is removed, brains eaten with a tea spoon. And most importantly: the meal should be completed before the death of the animal! But take a breather. Fortunately, modern chefs (apparently under pressure from the societies for the protection of animals) came up with the recipe for this “dessert” which does not have to resort to such unthinkable barbarity.
Paraguay: rats. Fried, stewed, stuffed, dried – Paraguayans are ready to eat their rodent parasites in any form. And whereas previously they ate only in small poor villages, but now the fashion has spread across the country. Paraguayans believe that the meat of rats is very rich in protein, it almost dietary. Attention: you are considered a real delicacy newborn pups, which prepare and swallow it whole.
Japan: poisonous fish. In light of the already described the propensity of the Japanese to the poisonous puffer fish, after tasting which annually kills about a hundred people, it seems quite harmless. Besides, civilized the Japanese government in 1958 ordered the cooks who want to prepare fugu for their clients to pass stringent exams. If the client is still going to die, cook according to the law of honor must do’s seppuku is to release yourself of the colon. But because of the hassle of cutting and because of that, when all the suspect parts are removed, the meat is left with less than nothing, to tickle nerves fugu is very expensive.
But Asia is not only shocking us with their gastronomic tastes. Beautiful Italy can whip up something on the what unprepared will put some hair on your head. However the dish is also moving.
In the villages around Lollow that in Sardinia, the local farmers like to sit after dinner for a glass of good homemade wine. For an appetizer served with bread and something brown that is removed from a dark closet right before the meal. It’s cheese and it moved. Cheese head, dotted with holes, inhabited by thousands of squirming maggots. They consider Northern Italians, have excellent stimulating effect. However, invented this dish was a complete accident. And it is hardly necessary to explain how to achieve similar results at home. But somehow the cheese with the larvae was recognized as a delicacy, still cooked by Italian chefs.
Today in the next release of the virtual Internet cafe “ a Master of his craft, ” I want to tell you how to celebrate the New year and talk…

Helen Flanagan has reportedly spoken out in support for her former Coronation Street co-star, Michael Le Vell.
Helen has been quoted by The Sunday People as saying: "I was so shocked to hear that the allegations had come back. It's absolutely vile what is being said about him. It sickens you to your stomach."
"I don't think things like that should be in the press until it's proven... It's terrible. I have spoken to him and he knows I am there for him."
Earlier this year, Le Vell was charged with alleged sex offences against one child, which were reported to have taken place between 2001 and 2010.
In September 2011 he was first arrested, as the girl who is now a teenager made her claims. But a few months later it was found that there was insufficient evidence and charges were dropped.
However, following a CPS review, he is due to appear later this month at the Manchester Crown Court.
There are 19 charges against him. He has said in an official statement that he is innocent and will fight the charges 'vigorously'.
Helen starred in Coronation Street as Rosie Webster, opposite Le Vell who played her father, Kevin Webster.

just an fyi. I assume a thanks in advance is in order. What were you doing with it, summarizing 80+pages?
It was a calculator for getting the ratios of each chemical correct. I think I moved the folder by accident, thanks for bringing it to my attention!
Hey Rick, I don't know if you saw it but I updated the links in the thread a while back. Should still be current!

SHOSHONI, Wyo. – Authorities have not yet said what killed the Washington man who was found last night at the bottom of Fremont Bay in Boysen Reservoir. 33-year-old James Rasmussen had been missing since Sunday afternoon after not resurfacing from a jump off a cliff. A preliminary report is expected to be made tomorrow afternoon after results from a forensic autopsy come in. That’s being done at the McKee Medical Center in Loveland, Colo.
Emergency rescue and recovery crews found the body about 15 feet down in the water near where friends had seen him briefly surface, then struggle, and go down. The body was located by an underwater robot search device that has a camera. The robot was brought in by a search and rescue team from Sweet Water County that was asked to help out. They arrived about noon yesterday. Fremont County Coroner Ed McAuslan provided the update.
Once the body was found, the coroner said the robot was tied off to a boat directly above and two divers went down while another stayed with the boat. The coroner said visibility underwater was only about a foot and the surface had to be lit by artificial light. He said the divers brought the body to the surface by using a restraining device and was taken by boat to a shoreline area.
The coroner said the operation went smoothly because of everyone who helped out, including the many volunteers. Night diving is not recommended, he said, but the divers were willing to stay and work into the early morning hours. Crews started returning home around 2 this morning. He said missions like this are only possible because of the volunteer rescue and fire-fighting teams who are willing to do the work and their employers who are willing to give them the time off.
SHOSHONI, Wyo. – The body of 33-year-old James Rasmussen of Washington has been found in Boysen Reservoir. Emergency rescue and recovery crews found him last night just before dark about 15 feet down in Fremont Bay where he was last seen going in after jumping off a cliff.
Fremont County Coroner Ed McAuslan said the body was located by an underwater robot search device that has a camera. He said the robot was brought in by a search and rescue team from Sweet Water County that was asked to help out. They arrived about noon yesterday.
Once the body was found, the robot was tied off to a boat directly above and two divers went down while another stayed with the boat. The coroner said visibility underwater was only about 12 inches and the surface had to be lit by artificial light. The divers brought the body to the surface by using a restraining device. He was then taken by boat to a shoreline area and brought out for ground transport. A forensic autopsy is being scheduled for tomorrow.
The victim had been missing since Sunday afternoon. He was cliff diving in the area with a group of friends, who reported that he came up briefly following his jump, struggled a bit, then went down. That was the last time they saw him alive.

At last year's U.S. Open in Torrey Pines, Calif., Tiger Woods and Rocco Mediate faced each other in an unforgettable playoff. Can a match at Bethpage Black live up to Tiger-Rocco? Throughout its 113-year history, the U.S. Open, which will be played June 18-21 in Bethpage, N.Y., has staged some of the most dramatic, and colorful, duels in golf. Here are TIME's 10 best.
The next time a pampered pro acts like he ran a marathon after playing 18 holes in scorching heat, think of Billy Burke and George Von Elm then roll your eyes. With 105-degree temperatures suffocating the Iverness Club in Toledo, Ohio, Burke and Von Helm ground out 72 playoff holes over two days to decide the '31 U.S. Open winner. Back then, Open rules required a 36-hole playoff if golfers were tied after the final round. On the 36th hole of the first playoff, Von Elm sunk a birdie to force yet another 36 holes the next day. Burke, a chain smoker who finished off 32 cigars during the tournament, finally prevailed by a single stroke. He said the smoke helped him gauge wind direction ... sure, because the winds were really whipping on those 105-degree days.

Radix therapists work with the life force through talking, movement, breath, touch, vision, and sound to achieve healing and growth and to help people realize their full potential.
The founder of Radix, Dr Charles Kelley was an experimental psychologist who researched the relationship between vision and emotions. He developed and incorporated ways of working with the eyes into Radix work. Radix practitioners are very skilled in working with the pulsation and different expressions of the eyes. This assists them to bring clients more into the present moment, which facilitates healthy perception, addresses dissociation and enhances the integration of the work. The significance of being able to competently observe and actively work with this aspect of the body has recently been supported by advancements in neuroscience and neuropsychology.
Radix is a regulatory approach both in theory and practice. Our primary focus is working with the pulsation of the life force in the body/mind. In a practical sense, Radix practitioners focus on the many subtle ways that clients interrupt this pulsation in feeling, thinking and behavior, either by becoming more rigid or by going into chaos. In particular Radix practitioners are skilled in emotional regulation; they understand the therapeutic benefits of facilitating either emotional expression or containment.
During their training, along with the in-depth theoretical learning and conducting a practice with ongoing supervision, Radix Practitioners do a minimum of 150 hours of their own personal Radix work. Radix training is rare in this demand for ongoing, deep and comprehensive personal work. This enables the practitioner to be fully present with their clients, no matter what the issues are or what is being felt or expressed.
Historically, Radix began as an educational model, not a medical model. Our basic belief is that clients have the capacity to be healthy and functional, rather than seeing someone as being sick and needing to be cured, as in the medical model. Our work is to facilitate growth toward one’s ability to live fully in the world. In the process of growing up, people may have learned ways of interacting with the world that protected them, but that are no longer effective for their optimal functioning. This belief in the client’s basic health and ability to relearn ways of thinking, feeling and behaving in the world remains a fundamental philosophy or Radix theory and practice.
With this focus the Radix therapist is fundamentally empowering the client to take charge of their life. For this reason, Radix practitioners are reluctant to ‘diagnose’ using labels. Emphasis is more on how the client is struggling in their feelings, behavior or thinking. This assists the client to make sense of their process and to make informed choices of how to change and grow based on their experiential learning.

While majority of the meals we had in Inner Mongolia were good, I can’t say the same for lodging. We opted to stay in wooden cabin and yurt, in hope to get a better feel of how the locals lived.
The wooden cabin does look rustic and “comfortable” enough, but there were unexpected downsides to it. The walls were so thin, we could hear every conversation going on in our adjoining rooms. One family had a bawling kid, while the other side were loud talking family. When night comes, the thunderous snoring ensued, as though they were in the same room.
The yurts are traditional hut like home for the locals. Although it isn’t the common dwellings in the modern time, many tourists opt to live in one for the experience. Most yurts now were built with modern comfort such as heater, electricity, and toilets attached. You can call it a luxurious roughing out and the kids definitely loved it. However it becomes dreadful when the hot water was not properly pipped to the yurt and it was below 10 degree celsius. Water coming out was from the tap was yellowish, which they claimed were good minerals from the underground water source. I call that mud water!

In April 2008 the State of New York inserted an item in the state budget asserting sales tax jurisdiction over Amazon.com sales to residents of New York, based on the existence of affiliate links from New York–based websites to Amazon.[41] The state asserts that even one such affiliate constitutes Amazon having a business presence in the state, and is sufficient to allow New York to tax all Amazon sales to state residents. Amazon challenged the amendment and lost at the trial level in January 2009. The case is currently making its way through the New York appeals courts.
Established in 2000, this company has since grown into one of the most well regarded affiliate networks in the UK, as well as the world.

Link your site to affiliate cooking products, sell your food photos, create and sell your own physical cookbook, or launch a cooking app. Equally, you could turn your cooking blog into a membership site. You would then share all your content, including recipes, how to videos, food photographs, and much more, with only your paid up members.

Hi Jamie! Thank you for the great information. I just learned about affiliate marketing last week. The source however, is an older couple who work for World Wide Dreams Builders (WWDB). So, basically Amway. After researching a bit. I have no interest in WWDB and. (It sounds like years of recruiting people with minimal payout) Though, I am highly intrigued by e-commerce and affiliate marketing. Before your post the company I recognized was Amazon. Can you please tell me if that will be the best 1st step. I am currently an unemployed student Veteran. So plan to fully emerge into this business regime and would greatly appreciate your advice on this!!!
Provide excellent customer service. Answer any questions buyers post as quickly as possible. Be professional and courteous. Positive communication builds your reputation with buyers and gets you return business. Also, package your product well and ship it out quickly. Allowing an item to become damaged or taking too long to ship can negatively affect your reputation among buyers. Wrap all items, especially fragile ones, in appropriate packaging. Commit to shipping items as soon as you receive payment.[32]

Can you make money with affiliate marketing? The short answer is yes, affiliate programs can earn a extra money and even a full-time income from home. The long answer is a little more complicated. Like any home income venture, success comes not so much from what you choose to do to make money, but whether or not you do what needs to be done correctly and consistently.
Double check yourself, before you double wreck yourself. Make sure everything you send to a company, whether a résumé, an email or a portfolio, is good to go. Double check your grammar and wording, and for God’s sake use spell check! This is especially important when it comes to the company’s name. Don’t spell their name wrong and be sure to type it how they type it (e.g. Problogger, not Pro Blogger).
There are numerous printing companies that will print your designs onto not just T-shirts, but also hoodies, hats, posters, cushions, bags, and phone cases, to name a few items. These businesses also offer fulfillment services. This means that you promote the merchandise on your own site and once you sell a product the printing company will not only print your design but also send the item directly to the buyer. So all you have to do is concentrate on the marketing and selling of your products, and the fulfillment company will take care of the rest.
Etsy is the most popular online marketplace for handmade goods and crafts. From bracelets to phone cases, rings, furniture, and more, Etsy is perfect for anyone who is creative and wants to sell their handmade creations. As long as you have the space, this can make for one of the best ways to make money online that can be started with a very limited investment. Consider these 5 steps to starting an Etsy store, from Handmadeology.
If you’re willing to take on some risk and have the heart of a true hustler, you can make extra money online doing commission-only sales for startups and other businesses. While you won’t be getting a regular salary, with the right sales strategies and skills as an inside sales rep, you can make decent money for each sale you bring in. And because you’ll most likely be working with startups, if you can negotiate a little equity you could profit big time if you're pitching a solid product and the startup succeeds.
Thanks! I have a few products mixed into my blog posts, and will be adding more. I have found CB to be a mixed bag so far - but need more time to see how it pans out. Also wondering about setting up more sites to follow the funnel you set up. I was pleased to hear you mention having 3 follow ups in the responder sequence. Someone else had suggested 10! I figured by 4 or 5 you lost them anyway.
While your site is still new, it's a good idea to start capitalizing on someone else's audience. Continue focusing on building your own content, but also considering writing content for a few big, high-traffic blogs that are relevant for your niche. By writing content for a bigger site, you are able to get in front of another audience and showcase your expertise on a particular topic. This will eventually lead to more traffic to your site, as well.

Domain name trading has been around for the last couple decades, and while most slam-dunk names have long been sold off, there’s still plenty of others that you can get your hands on for relatively cheap and broker as a way to make money online. Before you dive in, however, beware that some experts doubt the long-term viability of this idea for making money online. However, there’s always the change you might just land on a lucrative domain name for a future billion-dollar company. To get you started, here are some tips from GoDaddy, arguably the world’s largest and most famous repository of domain names.
Hi Jamie, awesome content that is very helpful esp with the resources, links and the rich discussions. Want to start e-commerce and blog for money…selling others products, want to go full on with this, tired of the daily routine crunch working for others. I live in a developing country (PNG) that has high internet costs (work still in progress with getting rates down…) so will see how I go with your posts. Any advise? Don’t have a website yet, have to build one I guess….
Once you’ve had children, many parents find themselves caught in the trap of needing to work but wanting to stay home with their kids. Creating your own parenting blog can not only be a way to make some money, it can also help you connect with other parents and make sense of those crazy sleepless early parenting years (it does get easier don’t worry!)
Display. Just as in any retail operation, the way you display your wares will greatly impact your sales. Produce should be placed underneath a cover to protect it from the sun, but be sure to allow at least seven feet of head room. Display your prices prominently, and clearly identify the things that make your product special. Personalize your stand with signs to inform your customers.
Money can be earned and spent, saved and pilfered, invested and wasted. Not time. That's why time is far more valuable than money. The point? When you lack the luxury of time, making money online (or offline) can seem like an impossible task. How are you supposed to do that when you're working at a life-sucking nine-to-five job? While the stability of full-time employment might allow most to sleep well at night, it doesn't empower your creative juices to search for new income-producing strategies.
“Every business, no matter what industry, needs to invest in digital marketing,” says DesignRush Founder and Executive Director Gabriel Shaoolian. “The best digital marketing agencies effectively promote a brand identity across a variety of channels. This captures a highly targeted audience more efficiently and scales the business at a lightning-fast speed.”
CashCrate sends out literally thousands of payments a month to users just like you who spend time completing surveys and offers on CashCrate.com. How do they do it? Well, they do surveys and offers regularly. It really adds up! Your initial goal should be to meet minimum payout, which is $20.00. Making $20.00 in free cash is actually quite easy considering there are hundreds of surveys and offers available, but here are a few tips to get you to your goal faster:
The seller, whether a solo entrepreneur or large enterprise, is a vendor, merchant, product creator, or retailer with a product to market. The product can be a physical object, like household goods, or a service, like makeup tutorials. Also known as the brand, the seller does not need to be actively involved in the marketing, but they may also be the advertiser and profit from the revenue sharing associated with affiliate marketing.
Because of the strong interest in quality of life and work-life balance issues, life coaches have become popular in recent years. Unlike the intellectual demands of becoming a technical or executive coach, life coaching can be successful if you possess common sense, a respect for family and a commitment to enjoy life to the max every day and helping others do the same.
19. eBay – Of course you can’t read an article about making money online that doesn’t mention eBay. You can start an eBay store and get serious about it or you can just sell some stuff to declutter your home. Either way, I’ve made my fair share from selling on eBay and it’s still a popular way to earn money. If you decide to start an actual eBay store, you’ll want to find a drop-ship business like Doba that will store and ship items straight to your customers so you don’t have to deal with an inventory.
Next, I’m going to walk you through the information that’s in this box, because this is a lot of information in this little box and it can get overwhelming if you don’t know what all these terms mean. The first thing you want to pay attention to is the average amount of money per sale. This is not how much the product costs; this is how much an affiliate makes on average for one sale of that product. When you look at the stats line, this basically drills that down into a little bit more detail. The initial sale is $20.65. Why does this go all the way up to $26.80? That’s because there’s a re-bill feature. What that is, is basically they buy the product, and then there’s an add-on or another option for that person to sign up to some membership site, and that’s how much they make on average from the re-bill. If you average everything together, this is how much the affiliate makes with everything considered.
Top Offer On All Of Clickbank! Affiliates are making up to $5,000 per day promoting this offer. You'll earn 75% commission on ALL sales and they'll even send followup emails with your affiliate ID in them to make sure you get credit! If you've never promoted a Clickbank product before, this one is guaranteed to get a lot of sales for you! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED:
There’s an excellent chance that you have one or several musical instruments sitting in storage that haven’t been used in years. Perhaps it’s a leftover from when you were in school, or even from your days playing in a band. Whatever the reason that you have it, it’s probably worth money if you can sell it. Brand-new instruments are ridiculously expensive, so people often look to buy used equipment instead, particularly if they are novices.
Many big businesses are looking for social media influencers to become long-term ambassadors for their brand. This would involve you working closely with one particular band, and promoting their clothes, products, and services. You may also be restricted from promoting other brands, so check out the small print before agreeing to any long-term agreements.
The best way to think about affiliate marketing is quality over quantity. There are a lot of small websites that will promote your product, but the key is finding a small number of partners that will deliver conversions. For example, an equity management services firm has over 20,000 affiliates in its system, but only about 25 affiliates generate 85 percent of revenue.
hello my name is ralph an I have been trying to promote clickbank productes on line but I have not had any luck , I do not have any website and to be honest no money what so ever, and live with my parents right now and have been trying to get something going to make some kind of money to move forward with everything , but have had no luck in promoting any product from click bank , just wondering what you can suggest to me , and please do not say get a job because I have been looking for one.
Perhaps you’re raising kids and you’re committed to not using daycare. Maybe you’re a little older and can’t commit to a full-time job. Or you might be injured or disabled, making it difficult for you to leave your home each day. Whatever your reason is, if you’re stuck at home most of the day, you’ve probably thought about the income you could be making by taking a work-from-home job or running your own business.

After almost 8 month with out any updates because of my studies,I'm back with my robot Glory 3.0. I will update all the documentation and the information about the robot in the following days and some photos.
The reason of uploading this documentation is that the 22 of may, the robot will participate in "Robocampeones", a high-school competition where you have to present the robot with some documentation. I'm going to participate in the freedom event.
The robot started as a personal robot for improving my arduino skills. After 2 years working on it, a friend encourage me to present the robot in this competition in Madrid. So, I started to prepare the robot for the event. The robot has a pan/tilt camera, a shotgun and is control by Rf. If you read my previous post, you will see the RF 433 Mhz tutorial. This code is used for control the robot through RF
I will update more information tomorrow, thanks for reading and leave some comments. Please write your sugerence to this email controlrobotics@rodrigomompo.com
I read the RadioHead documentation and you're right, RadioHead is better than virtualwire. The library have more funtions and supports modules like the nRF24L01
However, virtualwire works find with 433mhz unidirectional modules and virtualwire is easier to use than RadioHead. More functions also mean know how to use them.
In conclusion, I will use virtualwire for rf 433mhz modules but for more complex applications i will use RadioHead with other modules like nRF24L01
In my country (Spain) in order to enter in the university I have to take some exams 10,11,12 of June. After that I will prepare a tutorial using RadioHead and nRF24L01

Oh my, this one is both a looker and tastes amazingly! :-) This bento idea is based on the basic tamagoyaki recipe, so feel free to use your favorite ingredients: champignons or chanterelle mushroom, herbs, different kinds of onion, bacon bits, ham shavings etc. Go crazy! :-) It's also a very good side dish!
Tamagoyaki is a great and easy to make bento ingredient. It's savory taste goes well with vegetables and diary ingredients, it packs a reasonable amount of protein and will satisfy your hunger for a long time. It's good served warm, as well as cold.
Japanese word tamago means an egg and word yaki usually indicates that it is fried in some kind of way — with this recipe you can make a wonderful Japanese delicacy that not only tastes great, but also is a great way to make a great-looking little dish for your breakfast or bento!

Chicken is one of the most favourite dish in my classes and it is so easy to make once. I always use raw cashew nuts and roast it in the oven to avoid using too much oil like the the original Thai recipe over internet. The main character for this dish is the savory chicken blends nicely with the crunchy cashew nuts and the crunchy veggies. The dried chili gives it that smoky spiciness and it's addictive.
.Heat up the oven to 220 degree. Place the cashew nuts on a baking tray and put it in the oven. Turn off the oven right away and leave the cashew nuts to be roasted slowly for 10 minutes. Slow roasting this way will make the nuts crunchy and retain its beautiful flavour.
. Sprinkle 2 table spoons corn flour to coat the chicken. Heat ½ cup of cooking oil and fry the chicken for 3 minutes until cooked at medium high heat. Set aside.
.Add 2 table spoons cooking oil to the frying pan and heat up. Toss the dried chili in quickly to infuse the oil. Add in peppers, mushrooms, baby sweet corn and stir well for 3 minutes.
.Add in the chicken, cashew nut. Toss well then slowly pour in the seasoning bowl and mix well. Cook for 3 minutes and add onion and spring onion. Mix all together for 2 minutes and it's ready to serve.

I'd never tried them before but seeing my friends sharing those beautiful spiral potato pics on Facebook while on holiday. They are very popular snack, street food all over Asia.
My first attempt making Asian spiral potato today, my kids finished them all in no time. I am more than happy to do another batch for them and their Irish neighbour friends.
I am not that strong to push the skewer through the whole potato so I cut it into half. Use a sharp small knife and gently cut the potato, make sure you go slowly follow spiral core of the skewers to the end.
Once reaching to the end, press the knife and go backward to make sure the cut is through. From the top you push the cut down to make space using the knife.
Soak them in water to remove the starch. Dust them with some flour ( mix in some curry powder and salt, black peppers or any kind of spice mixed you prefer)). In a large frying pan, heat up the oil and place the skewers neatly when the oil just slightly warm. Cook at medium heat. This way will help the flour stick to the potato.

Just in case you're wondering what on Earth the title of this blog is all about, I'm quoting something I heard Mum chanting a few years ago while madly pacing up and down and daydreaming.
Well, after many hours of waiting for David to come out of the bathroom, we went to MFI to order our new kitchen for Woodberry...at dinner time. Mum hadn't eaten anything for breakfast either, so was pretty weak. Still, we battled on and tried to sort out the kitchen.
So, after three hours at the shop, we have the kitchen units, countertop and gas hob are officially ordered. As well as the sink, which was chosen by David at the last minute and which none of us like. Oh, but "does it matter? At least we have one ordered now." Um, since you ask, yes, it does matter actually. If we're paying a lot of money for a sink we may as well shop around and find one we like.
We had McDonalds chips on the way back to Grottsville (just perfect for Mum's bad stomach, I'm sure), and then David took off to work, seeming to forget he lost his job five days ago now! He's come in just now looking really sorry for himself, and told us that he couldn't get the computer at his old desk to work. Well, I wonder why that was?
Oh dear. I know what you're all thinking to yourselves. Why hasn't she mentioned the orthodontist? Well, I guess I have to own up. I made myself really ill with the stress of it all, to the point I was very nearly physically sick this morning (very rare for me), and I knew I couldn't cope with the appointment emotionally. So I rang in sick, and the appointment has been put off until September 24th. Not that I'll feel any better about the treatment then. I don't know what I'm going to do.
On a happier note, the Comic Con pony and blank pony I ordered from Sailor Libra arrived! Wow, that was fast! The Comic Con pony is simply beautiful, even if she does look a little silly without proper eyes. The blank pony is to become a G3 version of a G1 pony, as soon as I can get some proper paint for the job, and figure out if I'm going to dye her hair or totally re-hair her. I need to get Lancer finished too.
Anyone want to vote on who the pony should be? It's between Truly and Bright Eyes. Truly is my favourite G1 character (after Lancer, of course!), but it would be kind of nice to have Lancer and Bright Eyes together as a pair. I will never customise a pony other than these blank ponies, so unless I suddenly win the lottery and can order more of them while they're still available, these will be my only ever custom ponies. So any help with this decision will be much appreciated!
Well, we are off to Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth for three days now, so I won't be online again until Sunday. I will try to catch up with my letters before bed, but if you haven't had a response to your last message, I am really sorry. I will write to you as soon as I get back, I promise.
Hi, my name's Desirée Skylark. I’m a 24-year-old daydreamer, stranded in the UK but hoping someday to move to Vancouver. I would love to be a professional actress, specialising in voice overs in animation and commercials, and in musical theatre... did I mention that I like daydreaming? I am the proud owner of a large herd of My Little Ponies – some people might laugh, but they help me to de-stress and take me back to my happier childhood days! I’m also a coin operated ride enthusiast – I have over 1600 photos of them from when I was small! Almost ALL of these rides have now been scrapped so I’m trying to put together a website about them and the people who made them. It’s quite fascinating to discover their history! The last few years of my life have been an utter nightmare (read my older blog entries for the full details), and I have been left with no education or chance to achieve my full potential as far as finding a job goes. I do hope now that we have finally moved house that I will be able to start getting my life back on track, but it’s going to be hard. Join me on my blogging journey – can I turn this into a real life Cinderella story with a happy ending?

Real Estate Sale Status Terms can vary in meaning from location to location and are often just plain confusing. Here are simple explanations of some of the most common real estate sale status terms used in Northern California sales transactions.
A property is listed on the date the seller signs an agreement with a broker to sell it. Under recent rule changes, sellers in some areas may now instruct their broker to either begin marketing the property immediately or to delay marketing until a future date. When marketing begins at a later date, the sales status is Coming Soon.
For more about Listing types (e.g. exclusive, open, pocket, etc.), see Real Estate Listing Types Explained.
A property is Active when it is placed on the market for sale. Some brokers and Multiple Listing Services (MLS) use additional sub-categories of Active, such as these:
New: Sometimes used to identify properties that have been on the market for just a short time, usually around seven days.
Active – BOM: Property was under contract to be sold, but the sale was cancelled and the property is back on the market.
Active – REO: The property is owned by a lender, usually acquired by the lender through foreclosure.
Active – SS: Designates a property being sold as a Short Sale requiring special transaction processing.
Sold can have two vastly different definitions – ask your broker which one applies where your property is located.
Sold may mean that buyer and seller have executed a sale contract, even if that contract includes an escrow period and change of ownership doesn’t occur until a future date.
In some areas, Sold means that escrow has closed, change of ownership has been completed and the buyer is now in possession of the property.
A property is Contingent when a sales contract has been signed that contains one or more contingencies that must be satisfied before the sale may close. The most common contingencies are completion of inspections, performance of repairs, and approval of buyer financing. There are four common sub-categories for Contingent:
Contingent – Show: The property is available to show and contract contingencies are still in effect.
Contingent – No Show: Contract contingencies are still in place, but the seller no longer wants brokers to show the property to potential buyers.
Contingent – Release: Contingencies have been either satisfied or waived by the buyer or the contractual contingency release period has expired.
Pending is a status often used either when there are no contingencies in the purchase contract or when all contingencies have been satisfied or released. Three common Pending sub-categories are:
The Cancelled status refers to the listing contract between the seller and the listing broker, not to cancellation of a purchase agreement with a buyer.
The Expired status refers to the listing contract between the seller and the listing broker. Almost all listing agreements have expiration dates and automatically expire unless seller and broker execute an extension.
Here are some of the most common status terms used in three of the real estate markets served by Cordon Real Estate. Variations and sub-categories of these terms may also be used based upon the type of property and circumstances relating to a specific sale. All terms are subject to change.
I hope these explanations of real estate sale status terms was helpful. If you have any questions regarding real estate buying, selling or investment, drop me a line!

Sinn Féin Councillor Chris O'Leary has said the government’s four year plan for the economy is an attempt to make the unemployed, the sick, the low paid and students pay for the sins of the wealthy, and will only deepen the recession.
“This plan lets the wealthy off the hook, while hitting low and middle income earners hardest once again. And for what? Every penny of every tax increase and every spending cut will go to paying off the debt incurred for bailing out the banks."
“Not only is this plan morally wrong, it is economic lunacy. Nearly €14.5 billion was taken out of the economy in the past two years and the result is the recession is worse. Now they want to take out another €15 billion."
“Increasing VAT will not grow the economy, it will see people flooding across the border to shop and kill business in this state."
“Reducing the minimum wage and social welfare will reduce disposable income and lead to decreased consumer confidence and further job losses. The Government should be concentrating on getting people into jobs in order to lessen the social welfare bill."
“Reducing the tax band to €15,000 will bring thousands of low earners into the tax net but they are not increasing the top tax rate or targeting high earners."
“Increasing student charges from €1,500 to €2,000 will exclude thousands of students from college – parents will be faced with choices of ‘do we pay our mortgage or do we send our children to college?"
“There are alternatives. A 1% wealth tax on the assets of Ireland's 33,000 millionaires, for example, would bring in €5 billion over the next four years. However the government have chosen not to follow them."
"This is not a plan for recovery - it is an attack on the poor, the sick, the low paid and the young which will only prolong the recession and delay recovery."

This clip was assembled in Photoshop CS6, but I’m working on getting a full-featured video editor. If I find the time, I will redo this clip and maybe be able to add a lot more stuff to make it look better.
Despite how it may appear, I’m not super infatuated with my star player, the golden retriever, I was mainly trying to capture his emotion.
Also, I thought the part with the walking dogs was probably too long (besides being poor quality) but I was attempting to capture an action that had a beginning, middle and end.
I also had an issue about portrait versus landscape and techniques for being able to use both in the same clip. I did get a nice clip with hawks whistling and circling, but the hawks ended up looking like fruit flies in the clip.
Exporting the video was slow and required the reading of tutorials, and I had to upload the file to a server before being able to embed the clip in my blog. I chose Vimeo because I don’t think my expertise is such yet that I would want to post on YouTube…maybe later! The rest of you probably know of other video services.

The Russian government has announced the criteria for purchasing private shares of state-owned oil company Rosneft, the Vedomosti business daily reported Friday.
Every city has its secrets and, every now and again, they see the light of day. When Moscow began its biggest road reconstruction project to date, workers uncovered treasures that had been hidden for centuries.
President Vladimir Putin appeared on Russian state television on Friday to address the French nation following the terror attack in the southern city of Nice on Thursday evening.

Ever since a Blogging Peep posed the question a few weeks ago, I've been pondering why I blog. Silly to ask myself, probably, but it did stop and make me think.
And not the kind you think. I didn't need an escape or another community, support or a creative outlet. (Because you know I am fine being totally uncreative and just eating cookies and hanging out with friends and going to happy hour at Sonic a few--or several--times a week.)
So, realizing my gross inadequacy at sending pictures via email, writing short updates capturing Jackson and Lilly's latest craziness, and after failing to keep people informed as to our lives in general, I decided to start a blog.
I would rather write a detailed email or send a letter via snail mail. But it just doesn't get done.
Having a few anecdotes out there on the blog feels selfish. Like I am too busy to make contact with each of you, but if you make the effort to come to me, I'll be here!
Someone in the blogosphere (I can't remember whom or I would give them credit) described the blog as a mere sliver of pie.
With each post, people get a teeny slice of our lives. Not even close to the whole pie--the full picture of who we are, what our days are like, and of course, the many endeavors that we choose to withhold from the entire free world with internet access. (Imagine that.)
I started blogging (well for real, that is...there were a few stops and false starts along the way) after my kids were toddlers. Therefore, the big developmental milestones and rapid changes had slowed down considerably by the time I started sharing these snippets with loved ones.
Granted, there are still plenty of amazing and significant moments. But the rapid succession of teething, crawling, walking, and emptying entire drawers in less than ten seconds had passed.
I was told that all of those categories are too broad of a blogging focus and I need to clarify my purpose.
I love how something as small as a latte can make my day, how Lilly's wardrobe decisions crack me up, how Jackson oozes tenderness and ruggedness at the same time, and how shopping is just plain FUN.
Speaking of which, Lilly spent all afternoon in her size 2T Tinkerball pajamas, brown and pink argyle knee socks, and hot pink furry snow boots.
As a bonus, I've met and adore the other bloggers out there who share life in such a unique way. I love the fellow moms who share life's small victories, tears, and grand disasters without judgment or condescension.
I love laughing instead of crying (except when I laugh so hard I cry...which is often) and exchanging emails with people I may never meet but I somehow know are kindred spirits.
I love that our extended family has some clue of what's going on in our lives and that I don't have to keep a scrapbook to document all of the moments (precious and otherwise) that fly in and out of our garage door each day.
(Scrapbooks make me all shaky and tense and I AM AGAINST THEM and poor Lilly doesn't have so much as shreds of paper with dates written on them as to when she hit developmental phases.
I just remember thinking things like, "That's when Jackson got teeth!" so hopefully she'll never ask.)
But another thing I love about the blog is that it's a place to record the insanely simple and fun daily blessings, giving God glory for each of His good and perfect gifts.
I am thankful beyond words to have some amazing girls in my life with who I regularly share my burdens, struggles, and thorns. We wrestle with tough truths in the Bible while pushing each other to live out our faith, work out our theology, and live sacrificially on a daily basis.
We ask challenging questions and have sworn to spur each other toward the best road...not the easy or even the good path.
However, those are conversations I love having in person. The blog is just not a good way for me to flesh out my convictions. (I really admire those who are brave enough to attempt that.)
I love to read blogs where people argue beliefs and challenge each other's thinking...but I am not ready to jump in on those conversations. I feel too limited, too misunderstood, and like I might have to be articulate or something.
But I do feel that the blog is a great forum to capture the blissfulness and simplicity of my latest finds at the Gap.
I have no idea how many people show up each day to read the brain cell-emptying posts about tank tops and wonder how Brad and I were allowed to leave the hospital with live babies and no parenting license.
But I am so thankful they (YOU!) do. Thank you for the many emails, thank you for the comments, thank you for the encouragement that keeps this humble blog going.
I can just picture myself in heaven explaining this "blog" business to Moses. He will be picturing stone tablets and shaking his head.
"My soul will boast in the LORD"...And i praise Him daily for my family, coffee, sugar, running, friends, laughter and an incurable desire to redecorate.
I forgot to tell you...I painted my front door a lovely turquoise at the end of May. It needed a little snazzing. Don't get me wrong.....

This is currently my favorite drink, and I’m not a fan of Sierra Mist because I didn’t understand what was so special about it. The regular Sierra Mist taste like either Sprite or 7-Up and I didn’t see the point for this one. But now its all clear. Sierra Mist Cranberry Splash is amazing. I thought that when Mountain Dew made their Code Red that it was good. This is even better. Code Red (along with most Mountain Dews) tend to be very syrupie this isn’t. This drink is really refreshing and give us a taste of what a shirly temple in a can would be like if they made one.
Marcos Cosme has had a love for writing and film since he was little. By combing those two passions, he started studying film early on in Middle School and High School writing screenplays and working in his High School television production studio. When it came time for college he decided to pursue a bachelors in Electronic Film making from Fairleigh Dickinson University. Marcos continues to be an avid watcher of movies and scripted television series, although he does, on occasion, watch some reality shows. He has watched hundreds of movies during the course of his life and has worked in various roles on small independent film projects, including writing, producing and directing. In his spare time Marcos loves to write screenplays, read books, contribute articles, blogs and reviews on various topics including (but obviously not limited to) movies, television, books, and wrestling; just to name a few. He is a Rabbit aficionado (he has a dwarf rabbit named Peanut-who is the logo of Cos' Blog) and is a Golden Retriever connoisseur (he has two Goldens named Cassie and Chloe). He also love to spend time with his wife and as of July of 2015 they welcomed their first child, Miles, who can occasionally be seen on the blog.

Males have once again dominated the country music scene this year, with Luke Bryan leading the way, contributing to four of the top 15 songs on the year end countdown. He lands at #1 with “Play It Again” and also lends a hand to Florida Georgia Line at #2 with “This Is How We Roll”. Rounding out the top five are Jason Aldean’s “Burnin’ It Down”, Dierks Bentley’s “Drunk On A Plane” and Florida Georgia Line’s “Dirt”.
Miranda Lambert represented the females well with two songs on the countdown. Her duet with Carrie Underwood, “Somethin’ Bad”, came in at #7 and “Automatic” landing at #16. Newcomers Sam Hunt and Cole Swindell made their debuts this year, both having their debut singles make the year end chart.
As always, the CML Chart combines radioplay, album sales, popularity, video countdowns and internet downloads and streaming.

The strongest anthem for the #MeToo movement was written and released by a couple of Swedish sisters in their mid-20s, months before Harvey Weinstein revelations in the New York Times last year.
“I am so sick and tired of this world,” First Aid Kit sing, with a venom that is more spat than sung. “All these women with their dreams shattered / From some man’s sweaty, desperate touch.”
Played defiantly to electric guitar that’s closer to punk, the song “You Are the Problem Here” is so different from the rest of the music First Aid Kit usually play that after issuing it as a single nearly a year ago, the two left it off their most recent album, “Ruins,” that came out last month.
Still, it was presented as a mid show highlight to their sold out show at the Lincoln Theatre in Washington, D.C., Saturday.
The duo of Klara Söderberg, 25 and Johanna Söderberg, 27, started more than a decade ago as teens, when they found that their harmonies matched their love of the kind of Americana and 70s singer/songwriter era they often listened to and is reflected in exquisite tracks like “Emmylou,” which drops the names of influences like Emmylou Harris, Gram Parsons, June Carter and Johnny Cash in a sprightly love song.
(If the Söderberg sisters knew they were in the city where Parsons first discovered Harris playing in a bar in Georgetown, they might have been excited about that).
The nod to Americana is aided by the backing of pedal steel guitar of longtime member Melvin Duffy. The addition of drums, played for the past three years by Scott Simpson, has added a more booming rock sound to First Aid Kit; it’s rounded out by Steve Moore on keyboards and trombone, which he plays more often than one might expect.
Despite the sentiment in “You Are the Problem Here,” it seems the encroachment of these older men has trapped their sound in a way; gone are the days, with just a couple of exceptions in the show, where the two voices and Klara’s accomplished finger-picking can shine on their own.
Part of the appeal about the two is that they are young and enthusiastic; they also look in their long hair and miniskirts like a couple of school girls from the 1970s. It’s left to chief songwriter Klara to sing lead and play guitar on most songs; Johanna adds harmony and bass; playing with such energy that she often stomps around the stage, knees high, ending up on her knees at one point.
They directly saluted bygone rock era by reviving another classic sister act, Heart, with a vibrant “Crazy on You” (with a guitar solo handled not by one of the women, though, but by Duffy.
Sisterhood is powerful, but for a duo who has brought tears to writers it has interpreted, from Paul Simon (“America”) to Patti Smith (“Walking Barefoot”) to Fleet Foxes (“Tiger Mountain Peasant Song”), the selection of Heart as their sole cover was sort of a rung below.
The great thing about First Aid Kit is that they don’t have to rely on covers to advance their career, from “The Lion’s Roar” and “Wolf” to “My Silver Lining.” Their new songs, too, further their yearning for travel and truth in “Fireworks,” “It’s a Shame” and the new album’s title track.
They brought another man into the mix, opener Van William, to do a song they sang on for his new EP, “Revolution.” But rather than him invading their encore, perhaps they should have come out to back him during his quite excitable opening set with his trio.

The Eagle Point Youth Center opened in 1993. We see around 150 kid visits a week. Kids enjoy activities such as pool, air hockey, video games and other fun group events. It’s also a safe place for kids to hang-out and talk with friends.

Educational historian Frederick Rudolph called Cornell University “the first American university,” referring to its unique role as a coeducational, nonsectarian, land-grant institution with a broad curriculum and diverse student body. In this course, we will explore the history of Cornell, taking as our focus the pledge of Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White to found a university where “any person can find instruction in any study.” The course will cover a wide range of topics and perspectives relating to the faculty, student body, evolution of campus, and important events and eras in Cornell history. Stories and vignettes will provide background on the current university and its administrative structure, campus traditions, and the names that adorn buildings and memorials throughout campus. Finally, the course will offer a forum for students to address questions on present-day aspects of the university.

Jim has been interested in the western genre since the mid-1950s when his family was involved in reenactments at the Buffalo Ranch near Newport Beach, CA and at the Ray “Crash” Corrigan Movie Ranch (Corriganville) Simi Valley, CA. He has also been involved with horses most of his life, still riding regularly today. After completing a successful career in the military and in the health care industry, he became involved with making quality leather gun belts, holsters, chaps, etc. working for several of the Southern California premier Gun Leather Companies. This renewed his interest in the Old West and he became a member of the Single Action Shooting Society, a member of the Reenactment Guild of America, a member of The Cowboys, Norco, California, a member of South Bay Rod & Gun Club, Dulzura, California and a member of the Julian Doves and Desperado’s Reenactment group. His long hair and facial characteristics make him a natural for Buffalo Bill. His other persona as Captain Cooper swings from a Civil War Officer (both Union and Confederate) drifting into the western frontier, a working cowboy, Indian Wars Period Officer or Arizona Ranger thus allowing some latitude in period attire, which he enjoys. He possesses several authentic and unique firearms from this era, including a .44 Evans, an 1887 Winchester lever action 12 gage shotgun, an 1894 Winchester pump 12 gage shotgun, a Colt Bisley in .45 caliber, and also periodically carries/shoots a LeMat pistol.

He is recognized as a knowledgeable historian of the “Old West” and has given the following recent presentations:
Spoke on History of Cowboy Chaps and Cuffs at the Blue Grass and Old West Festival, Ramona, CA March 20, 2010
Spoke on History of Cowboy Chaps and Cuffs at The National Day of The Cowboy Celebration, Ramona, California July 14, 2010

Spoke on History of Cowboy Chaps and Cuffs at The National Day of The Cowboy Celebration, Ramona, California July 28, 2012
In addition he has served as a studio model for art students interested in authentic ‘Old West’ attire.
Captain Cooper creates his own cowboy chaps, cuffs and gun leather, making reproductions from Museum and Historical Books, keeping with the American Cowboy era of the 1860s to the early 1910s, and recently completed a fully tooled “B” Western set of Batwing chaps.

Props on another excellent video! Loved your excitement about PrEP and the progress being made. Thank you for continuing to contribute to the education of the masses!
Dr. Doe, you are so wonderful and I really enjoy these videos. It's great to hear and learn about sex and relationships in an intellectual way that doesn't feel sterile and clinical. You're video on crushing has been my all time favorite and has helped me understand how I feel. I have even begun sharing that video with my friends who struggle with understanding their own crushes.
