Boldewin von Marenholtz (auch Balduin Marenholtz; † 11. Dezember 1532 in Lüneburg) war ein deutscher römisch-katholischer Theologe und letzter katholischer Abt des Klosters St. Michaelis in Lüneburg.

Leben
Marenholtz stammte aus einem lüneburgischen Adelsgeschlecht und legte am 29. April 1492 im Benediktinerkloster St. Michaelis seine Profess ab. Anschließend ging er zum Studium der Theologie und möglicherweise auch der Rechtswissenschaft, nach Italien. Nach seiner Rückkehr wurde er 1505 zum 39. Abt des Klosters gewählt. Die Wahl wurde durch den Bischof von Verden Christoph von Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel am 8. Dezember 1505 bestätigt. Seine Infulierung erfolgte jedoch erst 1506. Marenholtz setzte sich für die Einrichtung eines Landgerichts in Uelzen ein, dessen erster Präsident er 1506 wurde. In dieser Position vermittelte Verträge zwischen weltlichen Herrschaften sowie für sein Kloster.

Marenholtz' Amtszeit fiel in die Zeit der Reformation. Nachdem er sich zunächst erfolgreich wehrte, musste er 1528 zwei erste protestantische Prediger an seiner Kirche St. Michaelis einstellen. 1530 verbot die Stadt Lüneburg ihren Bürgern den Besuch des katholischen Gottesdienstes. Zudem geriet er in Konflikt mit dem Reformator Stephan Kempe. In diese Zeit fiel auch die Errichtung einer Wasserleitung für die Stadt und das Kloster, die 1530 als Abtswasserkunst fertigstellt wurde.

Marenholtz konnte von Kaiser Karl V. das Generalprivileg für seine Abtei und die Nonnenklöster erlangen. Jedoch brach sich die Reformation unaufhaltsam Bahn. Am Michaelstag 1532 wurde die letzte katholische Messe in St. Michaelis gelesen. In dieser Zeit waren nur noch zwei Mitglieder des Klosters katholisch. Am 9. Dezember 1532 nahmen schließlich Prior des Klosters Herbord von Holle, der später sein protestantischer Nachfolger werden sollte, sowie der überwiegende Teil der Kapitularen das Abendmahl durch den Protestanten Andreas Garding in beiderlei Gestalt ein. Nur zwei Tage später starb Marenholtz an einem Schlaganfall.

AI and 5G in focus at top mobile fair
by Erwan Lucas With Daniel Silva In Madrid
Samsung will unveil its new flagship devices—the S9 and S9+ - on Sunday on the eve of the fair
Phone makers will seek to entice new buyers with better cameras and bigger screens at the world's biggest mobile fair starting Monday in Spain after a year of flat smartphone sales.
But with no major innovations awaited in handsets, analysts expect the four-day Mobile World Congress in Barcelona to focus on new uses for artificial intelligence (AI) and the looming deployment of super-fast 5G wireless networks.
Smartphone giants Huawei, LG or HTC are not expected to launch a new flagship device at the annual show, so Samsung will have the opportunity to grab the spotlight when it unveils its S9 and S9+ phones on Sunday on the eve of the fair.
The teasers suggest major changes to the camera, which will reportedly allow for "super slow-motion" videos and a new camera lens that improves low-light photos: features some of its rivals already offer.
The camera "seems to have become a major source of differentiation for the latest generation of smartphones," said mobile phone analyst Ben Wood of CCS Insight.
Samsung suffered a humiliating recall of its Galaxy Note 7 device in 2016 after several devices exploded but its Galaxy 8 smartphone was a consumer and critical success.
The company remained the world's biggest seller of smartphones in 2017 with a 21.6 percent market share, up from 21.1 percent in the previous year, according to research firm IDC.
Apple, which as usual will not be present at the show, was the second biggest vendor at 14.7 percent.
The world's biggest mobile fair will be held from February 26 to March 1
'Sea of sameness'
Overall global smartphone sales for 2017 were virtually flat—down 0.1 percent at 1.47 billion units—as phone makers struggled to come up with innovations that encourage customers to upgrade their devices.
"The sea of sameness continues to erode the impact that new models have on the market," said Wood.
In addition to better cameras, phone makers will focus on introducing bigger screens in mid-market devices, not just flagship ones, to try to boost their sales said Ian Fogg, senior director of mobile and telecom at IHS Markit.
"They are all really struggling to find good differentiation points to drive that upgrade cycle. They are not just competing with each other, they are competing with the phone that consumers already own that they may consider good enough."
The sector is hoping the introduction of blazing fast 5G mobile internet service—which is is about 1,000 times faster than the 4G widely available in the developed world—will trigger a wave of growth in equipment sales and mobile services.
The first deployment of 5G wireless networks, which are quick enough to download a full length film in less than a second, are expected in key markets like the United States, Japan and South Korea at the end of the year.
"We are in a phase of acceleration... as much for 5G as for artificial intelligence," said Jacques Moulin, the director general of IDATE, a French think tank on the digital economy.
The tech industry in December agreed on most universal standards for 5G, clearing the way for future wireless connections to support functions such as driverless cars and traffic systems.
"We will hear much more pragmatic discussion around 5G, around commercial trials, around what initial 5G networks will deliver. It is transitioning 5G from a future technology that has many possibilities into more of a business as usual approach," said Fogg.

"phone makers struggled to come up with innovations..."
Try this for an innovation: Lower your prices. With telephone companies no longer subsidizing new mobile phone purchases, while still charging sky high monthly rates for service, multi-hundred dollar phones are just not in the budget.
tekram
You will see the Qualcomm X24 2 Gbps LTE modem in action before you would see the 5G X50 or more likely a combination multimode 4G/5G with the two chips. Many new flagship phones would probably start using the 1 Gbps X20 LTE modem in the Qualcomm 845 mobile platform.

"We are in a phase of acceleration... as much for 5G as for artificial intelligence," Hard to get excited about this if there isn't a killer app to exploit it and drive demand. Without it this looks to be far out on the curve of diminishing returns.
The killer app would be to get around the exorbitant service charges. Elon Musk needs to get onto this.
Lower the prices. Any first rate company who lowers their prices will grab a much larger share of the market.
Thorium Boy
Maybe people have stopped convincing themselves they need new phones ever year or two? Better cameras? Who cares? You view images on 5" screens. VGA was good enough.

Not being a fan of the amnesia as a plot device, I was disappointed from the get-go with this book. That and completely unrealistic situations (I think even fictional humans have to perform toliet duty, ok?) where an woman falls into a fugue state every year but isn't hospitalized is ludicrous. Then there were the abrupt segues into the 300 years gone past, the child, etc., it was too many things not too have remembered yet she functioned as a mom, wife and magic student - blehh! So, unless you're a die-hard fan of KM's dragon series I'd say skip this one and hope, like me, that she'll put out a better novel next time - more like the smart and funny Fired Up & You Slay Me.

Bozell Column: Brian Williams, Shameless Partisan
By Brent Bozell | September 13, 2011 10:06 PM EDT
"NBC Nightly News" is the highest-rated daily news show in the morning or evening. In mid-August, this show had been ranked number one for 100 straight weeks, pulling an average of 7.7 million viewers. This makes Brian Williams the king of the TV-news hill. To be sure, it's obviously a smaller hill than the Walter Cronkite era, but in political terms, Williams, like Cronkite, is E.F. Hutton. His newscast can set the tone across the rest of the "news" media.
But all that royalty evaporates in the presence of Barack Obama. The contrast was jaw-dropping between Williams roaring like a lion against Obama's Republican challengers at the Reagan Library on September 7, and then bowing gently like a lamb at the White House three days later.
In California, Williams blasted Gov. Rick Perry with this question: "Texas ranks last among those who have completed high school, there are only eight other states with more living in poverty, no other state has more working at or below the minimum wage. So is that the kind of answer all Americans are looking for?"
Later, Williams went at Perry again: "As you know, your state ranks among the worst in the country in high school graduation rates, as we established. Yet, you recently signed a budget cut for billions in education funding, you pushed for greater cuts than were in the budget that the legislature passed. You've said that education is a top priority, but explain cutting it the way you did, please?"
But Williams' absolute worst moment arrived when he lost all sense of objectivity and fairness on the death penalty issue. "Your state has executed 234 death row inmates, more than any other governor in modern times. Have you struggled to sleep at night with the idea that any one of those might have been innocent?"
Williams didn't just hammer Perry, he also repeatedly pounded Ron Paul like a haughty Swedish socialist to defend his libertarian views. He even lectured Rick Santorum that as a "devout Catholic," he was supposed to care for the poor, so "where do the poor come in, where do they place in this party, on this stage?"
Then Brian Williams went back to Washington, DC.
Less than 72 hours later, Williams was calmly asking Obama to assess the tenth anniversary of 9/11 like he was Father of the Country. He also asked Obama what it's like for the President and Mrs. Obama to walk through Section 60 of Arlington Cemetery, where the fallen from Iraq and Afghanistan rest.
This would be unexceptional on such a solemn occasion...if NBC had done that for George W. Bush on the fifth anniversary of 9/11. Guess what? They didn't. Matt Lauer secured a Bush interview in 2006, and fought him throughout the entire thing, first on Iraq, and then on Iran.
For example, Lauer began: "In recent speeches, you and Vice President Cheney and Secretary Rumsfeld have seemed to indicate that people who are critics of your policy in Iraq are in some ways trying to appease terrorists. Do you know of any Democrats that, in your opinion, are trying to or would like to appease terrorists?"
In the last few weeks, President Obama has jetted around the country insisting that the Republicans aren't willing to put the good of the country ahead of their need to win politically. He's going from city to city questioning their patriotism. But Brian Williams and all his fellow servants in the Hope and Change Brigade have no problem with that, and don't ask about it.
Instead – and this is where the jaws should drop – Williams chose to inquire about why the Republicans couldn't be statesmen like Obama on the debt-ceiling debate. Ask yourself on which planet does Williams think the following kind of question to Obama matches the way he "moderated" the GOP debate:
"All of this, of course, is if you get what you want in a highly toxic atmosphere, and it sure looked to me from the outside like you went into the debt ceiling fight thinking, 'Surely they will do the statesmanlike thing. Surely they won't go there.' And it seemed to me as if Speaker Boehner was coming to you, saying, 'Look, if it were up to me we would do this, but I've got this membership problem.' And they went there, and now that marks our politics."
Move over, Jay Carney. Obama is auditioning press secretaries on the most popular nightly newscast in America.
Let's turn that hopelessly obsequious softball around on Williams. The viewer, after watching Williams swinging a baseball bat at Republican heads on MSNBC, could say "Surely, Brian will do the hard-hitting fair-and-balanced anchorman thing. Surely he won't go there, prostrate at Obama's feet. But he went there, and now that marks our journalism."

True Story on Netflix: Ending explained of nailbiting Kevin Hart drama
Tilly Pearce
Photo credit: ADAM ROSE/NETFLIX
True Story spoilers ahead
Kevin Hart is shaking off his comedy background in favour of something far more gritty in his new Netflix drama True Story.
Fresh off the heels of his melodrama Fatherhood, this time Hart is playing Kid, a man with a target on his back after a night out with his brother Carlton (Wesley Snipes) goes extremely awry.
When Kid wakes up next to the lifeless body of a woman named Daphne, he and Carlton have to think fast in order to cover it up before the police find out and his life as a multi-million-dollar stand-up comedian is ruined forever.
But what exactly happened that fateful night? The series definitely delivered a killer twist of an ending.
True Story ending: Who killed Daphne?
The Kid and Carlton make some drastic decisions in order to cover up what happened to Daphne (Ash Santos), including getting themselves involved with the mob.
However, Kid is left devastated when a number of things come to light.
First and foremost: Daphne, the woman he has put himself through hell to hide after believing he'd killed her, is actually very much alive.
In fact, she's not even called Daphne. Turns out her name is Simone – the on/off girlfriend of his brother Carlton, and together they came up with a scheme to scam Kid out of his hard-earned millions.
To do this, they had roped in Ari Petrakis, a gangster pal, and convinced him to be part of the job in exchange for a cut of the $6million they were angling for.
Once Daphne/Simone "died", Carlton called him in to "dispose of the body" and extort the money from Kid.
However, their plan falls off the deep end when a panicking Kid gets into a tussle with Ari, strangling him to death in a hotel room.
Then the real problems start kicking in, as Carlton is suddenly finding himself helping Kid dispose of an actual human body.
Chucking him into a dumpster, it doesn't take long for the police to find the body and get involved – while Ari's mobster family, including his brothers Savvas and Nikos, kickstart their mission for revenge.
Now officially in deep trouble, Kid and Carlton try to pin the death on an unsuspecting superfan, Gene, who caught them disposing of the body on his phone.
Initially playing nice with him in order to get him to delete the incriminating video, the pair frame Gene before handing him over to Savvas and Nikos. The pair proceed to torture the poor man for the death of their brother.
Gene dies taking the blame for Ari's murder, but the Greek mobsters soon realise they've been had, finding the footage he shot of Kid and Carlton committing the crime.
Thinking they had got away with murder, Kid and Carlton hit the town in celebration, with Carlton soon passing out drunk from their wild night.
It's then that Kid discovers the truth, finding texts from "Daphne" on his phone.
Initially playing dumb, Kid soon reveals he knows everything to Carlton, cutting him off forever.
But before they can go their separate ways, Savvas and Nikos catch-up with them for one last showdown.
When it looks like Kid and Carlton have been cornered, Kid manages to get the upper hand and pulls out a gun he had hidden on him, shooting them both dead.
He then turns the gun onto his brother, and pulls the trigger on him as well, ending his part in the world Carlton dragged him into.
"You always told me I needed protection from everybody else, but I don't," he tells his brother's dead body. "I just needed protection from you."
Photo credit: NETFLIX
Flashing forward three days later, it's revealed Kid pinned Ari's death on Carlton, and Carlton's death on the vengeful brothers – he's even made a bit of a boost in his career from it.
Appearing on CNN in an interview, Kid says he hopes to move on from the incident, making a poignant speech about people needing to do what they need to and "showing their true selves" when their backs are against the wall.

Q: how to take multiple string inputs using getline() I have to take multiple string inputs using cin.getline() and I've written the following code. I tried using alternative solutions, like using cin.ignore(), but it doesn't seem to work very well.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;

class Node{
    public:
        char str_1[25];
        char str_2[25];
};

int main(){
    Node *test;
    cout << "Str_1: ";
    cin.getline(test->str_1, 25);
    //cin.ignore();
    cout << "Str_2: ";
    cin.getline(test->str_2, 25);
    return 0;
}

The solution doesn't even ask for the second string, even with the cin.ignore() command.
I'm not a very advanced level coder, so kindly try to explain the solution in simple terms.

A: Since test is a pointer, you need to manually allocate memory to store the data. You can do this using the new keyword. Try this:
Node *test = new Node;

Jim Carrey to face trial for suicide of ex-girlfriend Cathriona White
By Chris Jancelewicz	National Online Supervisor, Entertainment	Global News
Jim Carrey will face trial in 2018 over the death of his ex-girlfriend, Cathriona White.
After months of filed legal documents and flying accusations, Canadian actor Jim Carrey is going to face trial in the death of his ex-girlfriend Cathriona White.
On Wednesday, Los Angeles Superior Court judge Deirdre Hill refused to dismiss two wrongful death suits filed against Carrey, and set a trial date of Apr. 26, 2018. She estimated the trial would last 20 days.
White's mother, Brigid Sweetman, and White's estranged husband, Mark Burton, have both filed lawsuits against Carrey, claiming that he provided the drugs White used to kill herself. The 30-year-old makeup artist, originally from Ireland, was discovered deceased in her Los Angeles home in September 2015. She and Carrey, 55, met in 2012, and dated on and off.
READ MORE: Jim Carrey responds to ex-girlfriend's mother's lawsuit: it's a 'shakedown'
A coroner's report concluded that White died from an intentional prescription pill overdose.
Carrey's lawyer, Raymond Boucher, attempted to get the judge to throw the lawsuits out of court, calling them "malicious" and "predatory." Carrey himself has called the lawsuits a "shakedown," and denies any wrongdoing on all accounts.
In previous legal documents, Boucher argued:
"[The allegations] are based on categorical lies concocted by Sweetman in collaboration with White's 'green card' husband with whom White never lived as husband and wife, and whom she married only to avoid deportation to Ireland. There is absolutely no evidence that Carrey furnished his prescription medications to White. Rather, she stole them."
After the hearing decision was made, Boucher said that Carrey "loved Ms. White dearly, and so obviously [the trial will be] a very painful process for him."

While both lawsuits focus on Carrey's culpability in White's death, Sweetman also contends that Carrey infected her daughter with multiple sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and then tried to get her to sign a document alleviating him of responsibility. (No accusations have been proven in court.)
Carrey's legal team vehemently denies the STI charges and said, "Sweetman and her attorney released the embarrassing information about White solely in an attempt to gain leverage against Carrey."
Documents filed by Boucher also highlight that White sought to reconnect with Carrey in 2014, long after the "purported accusations" of STIs. They also claim that White apologized for making the accusations.
Carrey and his team question Sweetman's credibility, claiming she "abandoned her family during White's childhood" and was "long estranged" from her daughter when she died. The A-list actor insists that he and White were a "loving couple up to the day of her death." They had apparently been planning to move in together; the legal documents say the pair was in the process of "finalizing a cohabitation agreement shortly before her death with the intent of living together as a couple permanently."
READ MORE: Jim Carrey sued for ex-girlfriend's death again, this time by her mother
His legal team claims Sweetman asked Carrey to buy her a house in 2015, "and when he declined she became angry and bitter."
Michael Avenatti, the lawyer representing both plaintiffs, responded to Carrey's filing in a statement.
"Jim Carrey [has] filed a baseless motion with the court as part of his continued attack on a grieving mother," the statement reads. "His conduct is disgusting and dishonest. Who attacks a mother of a dead girl?"
"Carrey and his 'fixer' lawyers are trying to deceive the media and the public," it continues. "They are making up facts they know to be untrue in an effort to save Carrey's career, which was over when he lied about not having STDs. Carrey is a fraud and when he is forced to testify under oath, the ugly truth will be laid bare. We are confident that the court will see through the nonsense Carrey is peddling."
The actor says that while he's "devastated by White's death," he is "not responsible for it." He says "it is outrageous that Sweetman, long estranged and motivated by greed, now seeks blood money."
Carrey and White split in the summer of 2015 and White began to suffer severe emotional distress shortly thereafter. The autopsy report of her death revealed that the suicide note she left behind was directly addressed to Carrey.

Shortly after her passing, Carrey released the following statement:
"I am shocked and deeply saddened by the passing of my sweet Cathriona. She was a truly kind and delicate Irish flower, too sensitive for this soil, to whom loving and being loved was all that sparkled. My heart goes out to her family and friends and to everyone who loved and cared about her. We have all been hit with a lightning bolt."
https://twitter.com/JimCarrey/status/652878987463557120
Dennis Bradshaw, a close friend of White's, told police that she was normally jovial and upbeat, but had periods when she was "really down." White mentioned missing her family in Ireland, Bradshaw claimed, but said she was "madly in love with Jim" despite their "roller-coaster" relationship.

At the time it was filed, Carrey made a statement about Burton's lawsuit.
"What a terrible shame," Carrey wrote. "It would be easy for me to get in a back room with this man's lawyer and make this go away, but there are some moments in life when you have to stand up and defend your honour against the evil in this world. I will not tolerate this heartless attempt to exploit me or the woman I loved. I really hope that some day soon people will stop trying to profit from this and let her rest in peace."
Avenatti is confident, with presentation of the evidence, that Carrey will be exposed.
"We have located nearly every text message, picture and email between them over the last four years by conducting a forensic examination of electronic media," he said. "The evidence will show that Carrey and his handlers are not shooting straight with the media or the public."

Nicknamed 'Little Giggs' because of his similarity to the great Welsh footballer, Mikey Wilson follows his hero into the youth team at Manchester United, and seems to have an equally glittering future ahead of him.
But when a poor pass from Ryan Giggs inadvertently causes Mikey to make a leg-breaking tackle two minutes into his first-team debut, their paths diverge.
As Ryan ratchets up a record-breaking number of trophies, Mike enters a downward spiral of gambling and alcoholism, laced with more than a few anger issues, as he tries to deal with the cruel hand fate has dealt him.
The question is can he ever walk away from his fanatical devotion to the Red Devils and live a normal life? Rodge Glass's novel is a gripping rollercoaster ride through the nature of obsession and the unregarded lives of football failures.
Roger Morgan is 'Mr Seattle', the charismatic political fixer behind the 1962 World's Fair that put the rainy city on the map.
His drive and vision of a science-based city of the future pulled off the spectacular show, where he glad-handed Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson and played poker with superstar Elvis Presley, dazzling everyone he met.
In 2002, now 70, Roger suddenly decides to run for mayor, bringing him to the attention of Helen Gulanos, a newly arrived young journalist.
Her retrospective celebrating the 40th anniversary of the great event takes an unexpected turn as she peels away the veneer of Morgan's public image, revealing suggestions of corruption.
At the same time she finds herself falling under his spell. Alternating between the two periods, Jim Lynch's novel is a brilliantly disturbing dissection of political morality, where right and wrong are, like Seattle itself, blurred in a grey mist.
When 19-year-old gap year student Billy's mother is killed by a mugger, he is determined to look after his five-year-old half-brother Oscar.
The problem is, Billy's still a bit of a kid himself, hanging out with his spliff-smoking, beer drinking mates, spending hours playing addictive escapist computer games and letting Oscar watch 15-rated movies, eat junk, stay up late and sometimes skip school.
Into this precarious mix steps Oscar's violent and unpredictable father, declaring a hitherto unspoken interest in his son.
Plus Billy's seeing his mother's killer lurking everywhere.
It's no wonder that Billy's repressed anger is increasingly liable to explode, threatening his custodianship of his little brother.
Stephen May's rites of passage novel is a painfully raw examination of the effects of loss and grief, and the confusion and difficulty of trying to be a male role model when you've never had a proper one yourself.

Bespoke Executive Resume Writers & CV Writers.
Sydney's and Melbourne's #1 rated resume writing services for business leaders. Elite resume writers with a 5-star rating.
How It Works Enquire Now
Why Do Resumes Of Most Senior Business Leaders Fail?
A typical resume – even one that's written by a professional resume writer – is rarely more than a flyer that contains surface-level aspects of your career. Your competencies. Your tenure. Your achievements. A shot at articulating your value and communicating your career story. While these resume features are important, they fail to position you as a superior candidate in 2021 – especially at the senior leadership level.
What Does A Bespoke Resume By Arielle Executive Do For You?
As a targeted marketing document, it positions you as a leader who understands commercial realities of senior business decision-makers – and who can solve their strategic problems. The result? You're seen as a candidate of choice - and a strong fit.

Your Career Story. Perfectly Told.
Arielle Executive is not a resume mill with a shopping bag of pre-written resumes and CVs. We're a potent team of high-calibre talent to have on your side when big opportunities are on the line and you need your brand to look and feel 150% right.
I'm not at c-suite, executive, director or board member level. Can I work with you?
Solving problems of a strictly defined clientele allows us to be highly effective at what we do. As a guide, we only work with business leaders who have held senior leadership positions such as GM, Director, CXO, Head Of, Regional Manager and National Manager.
I simply want to hire a highly competent CV writer and I don't have a large budget. Can you recommend someone?
Of course. Our sister brand, Exceptional Resume Writers, should be your next port of call.
Do you serve clients outside of Sydney & Melbourne?
Yes. All resume writing services are delivered via phone and email - including to our Sydney- and Melbourne-based clients. This means we can provide you with a second-to-none, professionally written CV - even if you're based elsewhere in Australia or overseas.
Are you a certified professional resume writer?
There are two main resume writer certifications - CPRW (Certified Professional Resume Writer) and CMRW (Certified Master Resume Writer). After careful consideration, and after receiving a number of enquiries from people whose CPRW and CMRW-style resumes failed to produce results in the job market, we decided that these certifications weren't adequate for senior business leaders applying for top positions. Instead of adhering to standards that we believe to be substandard, we've developed and refined our own proprietary ExecutiveExcellence™ branding technology, which enables us to write resumes that consistently outperform the competition. In addition, to ensure that our technology does not become antiquated, we regularly attend talent conferences and invitation-only events for senior HR professionals, in addition to being an active and respected thought leader in the talent acquisition/recruitment/HR space.
Can I see testimonials from your real CV and resume writing clients?
Yes. We have the highest number of 5-star Google reviews among all professional resume writers in Australia. We also consistently receive feedback via email and text, which you can read by clicking on 'TESTIMONIALS' in the top navigation bar.
I can write my own resume/CV. Why do I need to hire a professional resume/CV writer?
With some effort, you could definitely improve your resume without paying for the services of a resume writer. If that's a path you'd like to investigate, you can start by following one of the many guides we've published on the subject of resume writing - simply visit the "Expert Advice" section in the top navigation of the website to find them. However, just as we couldn't do your job after a few hours of training, it would be unrealistic to expect that the resume you create will have the same level of impact as the documents we create for our clients.
Who will be writing my resume?
The Arielle Executive CV and resume writing team is comprised of blue-chip executive recruiters, talent acquisition leads, organisational psychologists and HR managers. All have been on the other side of the table, partnering with c-suite clients and offering advice on their talent decisions. As a result, they understand business drivers and the markers for executive success and can communicate them through your personal marketing collateral. This ensures that your resume strikes the right chords and speaks directly to the needs and realities of recruiters and hiring managers.
How much does it cost to have someone write your resume?
Resume writing companies operate in three tiers. No-frills operators (also known as resume mills) charge between $70 and $200 - mainly to add basic formatting and structural improvements. Work is typically done by offshore workers and your resume receives approximately 30 minutes of their attention. Mid-tier companies are usually CPRW and/or CMRW certified and charge between $300 and $700 for a standalone resume. You can expect your achievements to be improved and for your profile to say something meaningful about who you are. These companies claim to articulate your value and create your value proposition, but in practice, they don't. Finally, Arielle Executive is a bespoke branding firm that is in a class of its own. Our resumes give you an unfair advantage in the market and our resume writing fees reflect this level of performance, starting above $2,500. Each Arielle Executive resume is a marketing machine that's built on top of a targeted brand strategy and is a result of 20+ hours of work by a team of high-calibre branding, recruitment, marketing and copywriting professionals.
Are resume writers worth it?
There is some disagreement on this topic. Our view is that you're a brand that competes for attention in a saturated jobs marketplace. As such, you can expect to be more successful if your resume effectively communicates your value to potential employers. Unfortunately, most people are quite terrible at writing positively about themselves in a succinct, dense and precise manner. This is why we believe that resume writing services - especially the best ones - are worth the investment By the way, we've also written a few guides that explain what to look for in a resume writer, and how to choose a resume writing service that you can trust with your brand. Simply visit the "Expert Advice" section in the top navigation of the website to start reading them.
Which resume writing service is the best?
There's a resume service that's a fit for every individual and every budget. We, for example, specialise in crafting bespoke resumes for executives, which makes us the best choice for senior business leaders. If you're a mid-tier professional, we suggest that you look for an Australian mid-market resume writing company. If your career is important to you, we recommend that you stay away from low-end resume services and DIY online resume builders. Again, to help you make the right choices, we've written a number of guides on the subject - simply visit the "Expert Advice" section in the top navigation of the website to find them.
What should I include on my resume?
Broadly, each resume should include the following five sections: Contact Info, Profile, Professional Experience, Education, and Skills. However, these may need to be altered to meet the requirements of certain industries and seniority levels.
Do I need a different resume for every job application?
No two jobs are exactly alike. For example, a typical career move for a CFO is into a CFO, a COO or a CEO position. Clearly, these roles have different requirements, which means the resume needs to highlight different aspects of a candidate's career history. The consultant in charge of your branding process will advise you the best strategy; you may need to either sharpen your focus or have a different resume for each type of role that you're targeting.

This course aims to introduce you to university level writing and research by exploring select books (The Truth about Stories; A Short History of Progress), essays, short stories, documentaries (Reel Injun and Surviving Progress), and a film (Arrival), and concerns a question of particular relevance to first-year students: what stories should guide how we design our lives? The major themes we will investigate in each text surround the importance of language and stories in our lives, which includes exploring how certain stories and myths can be dangerous. In this course students will develop a critical voice, analyze discourse, learn how to write a research paper and properly cite material, engage with pertinent social issues, such as the global environmental crises, feminism, and systemic racism, and learn how various rhetorical strategies, such as point of view, are essential to university writing. It is my hope that you will leave this course with a better understanding of academic culture and perhaps with answers to the pertinent questions about how you want to shape and narrate your own life (in relation to others).
There will be a short workshop where you will bring your first paragraph to class. Some of the letters will be read in class and so participation in the various stages of this assignment is required.
Bonus Assignment (2%): Due by Nov. 24: You have the opportunity to attend a presentation or public lecture on campus and provide a 1-2 paragraph précis of that talk.What was the talk about? How did the presenter organize their material? What techniques did they use for gaining audience rapport, including imagery, verbal signposts, and appropriate non-verbal messages? Did the presenter respond to audience questions effectively? Were there aspects of the talk that could have been more successfully presented, and if so, why? What did you learn? You may attend the Gustafson Poetry Lecture on the evening of October 26th, or you may attend an Arts and Humanities Colloquium talk (https://ah.viu.ca/colloquium-series). All talks are free and open to the public. Your assignment is due by 5 pm via the appropriate folder on D2L by Nov. 24.
VIU English instructor and hip hop enthusiast, Paul Watkins, will ask this diverse panel of hip hop artists to speak about their personal journeys in finding their voice through hip hop as well as how their art connects with culture, community and personal identity.

McCain to Make a Rare Appearance With Bush
TV Time Together
By Laura Meckler
President Bush and John McCain will appear together at a fund-raiser in Phoenix Tuesday, the first time in nearly three months that the Republican presidential candidate will be seen beside the man he hopes to succeed.
With Mr. Bush's popularity at a record low, the McCain campaign has made sure that television footage of the two men together will be minimal. The maneuvering is the latest example of Sen. McCain's aggressive effort to separate himself from the White House, even as he embraces many of the policies that Mr. Bush has promoted throughout his presidency -- and even as he benefits from the money that the president remains adept at raising. With growing frequency, Sen. McCain goes out of his way to highlight his differences with Mr. Bush.

With the amendment passed, Fair Wisconsin's Eva Shiffrin outlines what steps come next in achieving equality
OurLives Magazine 2014-12-10T20:05:14+00:00 Story by Eva Shiffrin
One year ago, Wisconsin wrote discrimination into its constitution. What does this mean for the future of LGBT activism, advocacy, and progress? It can only mean one thing: We must keep fighting. The loss was heartbreaking to many. Thousands of Wisconsin citizens volunteered countless number of hours. People stretched into their pocketbooks and made personal sacrifices. The energy and momentum was palpable. On November 8, the disappointment was also palpable. Now, one year later, it is time to put the loss behind us. We must convert our sadness into firm resolve and resolute determination.
And there is plenty of work to do. Forward progress is possible. It is imperative to show Wisconsin that equality still matters. It is also important to build on the efforts of the last two years and show people that relationship recognition and family recognition for same sex couples benefits our families, our children, and our communities.
We are uniquely poised to create positive change. We are one of the strongest LGBT advocacy organizations in this country. We have thousands of active supporters who aren't afraid to make their voices heard in the state legislature. We have the support of key legislative allies. We have shown that we are a force to be reckoned with. Over 99 communities all over Wisconsin voted NO. As a result, we are in a position to see change within the next year.
The first indication of our strength came when Governor Doyle put domestic partner benefits for state employees in the budget. Instead of retreating from our issues, the Governor stood with our community and spoke for fairness. By the time this article is printed, we shall know the results of these efforts.
The next indicator of fairness is the overwhelming support we have received for our fall legislative efforts to establish a statewide domestic partner registry for same sex couples in Wisconsin. This bill is our declaration that we will not stop fighting for relationship recognition. This bill shows our commitment to stand firm and demand that families be afforded protections.
The rights we seek though our domestic partner registry are basic, fundamental, human rights. We are asking for hospital visitation rights. We are asking that a person be able to choose who is at their side when they are scared, sick, and in need of love and comfort. We are asking for the right to decide to whom you wish to convey your wordly possessions after death. And we are asking for the right to allow your last wishes regarding your burial arrangements to be honored after death. All of these rights are extremely personal, heartbreaking, and important. These rights are routinely extended to spouses in recognition that these are the moments when you need your loved ones at your side the most and when your life partner is in the best place to assist you in carrying out your wishes.
One member of our community told us a story. That story involved a medical emergency. She is a lesbian, and came home to find her partner unconscious. Terrified, she called 911. As many will describe who have been in that situation, the fear of loss shot like adrenaline through her body and the sense of helplessness followed soon after. The paramedics arrived and placed her partner in the ambulance. She followed the ambulance to the hospital in the car. When she arrived, she was told that she couldn't be with her partner during this emergency because she wasn't a family member and had no legal entitlement to be there or even receive information about the status of her unconscious partner.
Within moments, she was relegated from partner to nobody. She went from being the most important person in her partner's life to a stranger in the waiting room. The helplessness she felt at her partner's medical condition was turned into despair as she was thrust into an information void. She was alone and felt that she had abandoned her partner when her partner needed her most.
Luckily, her partner's mother arrived and gave the necessary permission for her to be with the person she loved most in the world. Also luckily, her partner recovered. However, this story should remind us of the human face behind the rights we seek.
The extension of these rights should not be caught up in partisan politics. They should not become entrenched in the so-called fight over values. The rights we seek are based on universal values of love, caring, commitment, and compassion. These are universal values and these rights should be extended universally. By asking our legislators to support these rights, we expose those who don't for what they are.
It is also important to continue our progress toward a pro-fairness majority in our state capital. We would not be where we are now if we had secured a pro-fairness majority in our capital two years ago. Our prospects on this front are extremely promising. Last year, several key legislative seats converted from anti-fairness seats to pro-fairness seats. We stand ready to convert even more. We must begin now to ensure that a year from now, we have a pro-fairness legislature.
They say change is inevitable. It is inevitable, but only when we ensure that it is inevitable. We hasten the day when progress is made by making that day today. How many days must be spent as a stranger in the waiting room of the hospital instead of by the side of a loved one before we work to turn the tide again?
Let's join together and make that day today. Let's start with this bill and then move on to the next. When election time comes, let's show that we won't support candidates who don't support fairness.
We can't let the amendment defeat or define us. The best way to do that is to continue to fight for a Fair Wisconsin.

Part of the Barkan-Seesholtz collection, this is an Enchanted Fountain from Grandier's box set "Encounter at the Forest of Elvenwold." Seesholtz had already painted the rest of the set, this fountain was the last piece to be finished, so I felt compelled to get it done.
I picked a few earth tones for the pavers around the base, and added a neutral gray to each color to tone them down and give them similar hues. The stonework of the fountain got some khaki, again toned down with the same neutral gray. The water was the challenge with this one. I was not confident I could pull off convincing water, but it was the quickest part of the mini. The coins in the lower pool don't show up very well, perhaps I should have made them bigger. There's nothing obviously "enchanted" about the sculpt, so to indicate that there was indeed something magical about it, I made the runes around the base glow with some OSL effects.

Turnaround: How dying churches can find new life
by Bob Smietana
c. 2014 Religion News Service
(RNS) For years, a handful of members of Hillview Baptist Church in Franklin, Tenn., prayed their pews would be filled with worshippers.
In early June, those prayers were finally answered, as more than 300 people gathered for a Sunday morning service.
But the pews were gone. So were the traditional hymns. And a new sign outside the church now bore the name "Conduit Church."
A few weeks earlier, the congregation of Hillview had voted to merge with Conduit, a 4-year-old nondenominational church. At the time, Hillview had dwindled to less than two dozen members, and was on the verge of shutting down.
"They were tired," said Darren Tyler, pastor of Conduit, "and they knew their strategy wasn't working."
Instead of closing down, Hillview became one of a small but growing number of struggling evangelical congregations who've found new life by teaming up with a larger church. The mergers allow small churches to reinvent themselves and bigger ones to extend their reach.
Bob Smietana
Bob Smietana writes for Religion News Service.
The arrangement met a need for both congregations.
Hillview had a building but few people.
Conduit had people but no building.
The church had been meeting in a local high school since its founding. But the school board policy put a time limit on how long a church could rent.
"The clock was ticking," said Tyler.
As part of the merger, Hillview gave up ownership of the building—which had a $150,000 mortgage. Just before the first joint worship service, a friend of Conduit Church came forward and paid off the building.
The process was a bit like dating—Tyler and Jim Gosney, Hillview's pastor, met for coffee first, followed by a meeting of leaders from both groups. The whole process took about two months.
Gosney remains on staff, and the church plans to build an exhibit that highlights Hillview's heritage.
"I don't want their history to disappear," said Tyler of the church that was founded in the 1980s.
Mergers may offer new life for many smaller congregations, which have been hit hard by the changing demographics of American congregations.
Most U.S. churches are small—under 100 people. But the majority of church attenders now go to a big church, according to the National Congregations Study. That leaves thousands of churches with buildings but few worshippers.
In some cases, those churches have chosen to join bigger multisite congregations, like Edmond, Okla.-based LifeChurch.tv.
The church has 18 locations, known as campuses, around the country. Five of the campuses were created as a result of mergers, said Bobby Gruenewald, a pastor and innovation leader at LifeChurch.
It's not an easy process, he said.
"If you are wondering what will change—everything will change," he said. "We are not making a hybrid. A church that is going to become part of what we are doing is going to have to change."
That means giving up property and independence, and often the church structure. In most cases, the church staff also changes.
Most of the congregations that merged with LifeChurch.tv were smaller and struggling. Some were in danger of closing down.
"They didn't want the church to just disappear," he said. "They wanted to reach more people."
David Raymond of ChurchFuture, a consulting firm in Minneapolis, often works with mainline Protestant churches that are considering mergers. In this type of merger, two or more small churches unite rather than consolidating with a larger franchise.
"They are typically in sharp decline," he said. "They can't keep going."
Most of the churches he works with are small — about 70-75 people. All their attention is focused on survival, so they have little energy to reach out to their neighbors or serve their community.
"When you have that few people—you are chewing up everybody's resources just to keep the Sunday school running and the lights on," he said.
Raymond starts by asking the struggling church to think strategically about its ministry. He often asks, "What can we do to reach out and serve more people in your community?"
"I always put it to the congregation this way," he said. "This is your church. This is your choice. Do you want the church to close—or do you want to try something new?"
Craig Pederson, pastor of Grace Lutheran Church in Minneapolis, said a merger can jumpstart a church's ministry.
His church was formed in 2007 after three small churches decided to close down and pool their resources. Those older three churches had a total of 600 members, Peterson said, but few people showed up for services.
The churches were stuck, he said, with little hope for the future.
Opening a new church gave them a chance to begin with a clean slate. As part of the restart, the churches formed a separate nonprofit called Grace Center for Community Life in northeast Minneapolis, which is housed in a converted school.
Today Grace Lutheran has about 200 active members, said Pederson. They meet in the Grace Center for worship service on Sunday, sharing the space with three other churches—a Hispanic Pentecostal congregation, a startup Lutheran church, and a Seventh-day Adventist congregation of immigrants from Ethiopia. The center also rents space to two charter schools, a food pantry, a child care center, and other neighborhood programs.
Still, he said, there was a lot of pain in the process. Watching a church that you love shut down is hard, he said, as is saying goodbye to a church building, which often is filled with powerful memories.
But a merger can get a church out of survival mode and get the congregation focused on the future. That's a good thing, he said.
"A seed has to die to have new life," Pederson said. "That's hard to hear for some churches. But it's in the Bible."

TCP/IP is available as a standard protocol included with all Windows operating systems and is installed by default in Windows 2000. IP Solutions for Windows 2000 focuses on Microsoft's implementation of TCP/IP, DHCP, WINS, and DNS in Windows 2000. It discusses guidelines for planning, testing, and implementing substantial changes such as the setup or migration of a Windows 2000 TCP/IP network. This is the one book that focuses on the tools and techniques for implementing and working with Windows 2000 TCP/IP connectivity.
As the community of administrators using Microsoft TCP/IP matures, your need for reliable, technically focused information will increase. This publication provides real-world implementation advice using the latest TCP/IP advances, approaching these topics from the perspective of the true networking professional. IP Solutions for Windows 2000 cuts through the complexities and provides the most informative and complex reference book on Windows-based TCP/IP topics. This book is a tutorial-reference hybrid, focusing on how Microsoft TCP/IP works, using practical examples. Concepts essential to TCP/IP administration will be explained thoroughly, then related to the practical use of Microsoft TCP/IP in a serious network environment. This book begins with coverage of TCP/IP architecture and advanced installation and configuration issues, then moves on to cover routing with TCP/IP, DHCP management, WINS/DNS name resolution, and dynamic DNS.
It is the main intention of the author, however, to provide in-depth information on the most current protocols, technologies, and implementations of TCP/IP under Windows 2000 that are actually used and deployed throughout the Internet as well as in private TCP/IP networks. This material has been compiled as both an overview and a technical reference for advanced TCP/IP users and experts in this area who want to broaden their scope of knowledge.
This book covers four main areas of Windows 2000: TCP/IP, DHCP, WINS, and DNS. The discussion focuses on what's new with each of these applications under Windows 2000 and how this difference may vary from Windows NT 4.0 and from the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standards.
From there, the focus is be on planning, configuring, managing, supporting clients, setting up options, modifying server defaults, monitoring, optimizing, and interoperability issues, depending on the application. Practical examples are used throughout these discussions.
Finally, a review of the majority of menu options under the MMC for each application is presented. These sections, like the rest of the book, have been cross-referenced to provide you with a thorough understanding of Microsoft TCP/IP.

At around 1:45 a.m., the center of Typhoon Lekima, the ninth typhoon of the year, made landfall in the city of Wenling in Zhejiang, with a maximum wind force of 187 km/h.
The super typhoon weakened to a typhoon at 5 a.m. at a maximum wind force of 144 km/h.
The typhoon will move north at a speed of about 15 km/h, with gradually weakening force, the center said, adding that it will sweep through Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces before making another landfall in the southern coastal areas of the Shandong Peninsula late Sunday.

From Saturday to Sunday, Lekima is expected to bring heavy rain to Shanghai, and provinces of Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui and Shandong.
The center also warned against strong winds in Taiwan, Fujian, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Jiangsu.
The center suggested people in affected areas avoid outdoor activities and local authorities take precautions against possible flash floods, mudslides and landslides caused by the downpours.
China has a four-tier color-coded weather warning system, with red representing the most severe weather, followed by orange, yellow and blue.

At 11am on 11th November we remember the ending of the First World War, and the men and women who lost their lives in other wars and other parts of the world. Much of our focus is often on Europe, and those who fought and died in other theatres of war can sometimes be forgotten or relegated to the sidelines. One such group are the men who fought and died in North Africa during the Second World War.
Mersa Matruh is an ancient fishing port dating back to the time of Alexander the Great. It was also the place where Anthony and Cleopatra would escape for seclusion – at the time it was a village of sponge fishermen where the two lovers would relax and swim naked together in the sea. Allied troops were stationed in Mersa Matruh during the First World War, and at the time of the Second World War it was at the end of a narrow-gauge railway from Alexandria and as such was an important supply post for the Allies. The Allied troops who fought in North Africa came from all around the world – from the United Kingdom to Australia, from India to New Zealand, and the British Eighth Army (including the famed Desert Rats) set out on some of their most important operations from Mersa Matruh. Mersa was also the site of a crushing Allied defeat by Rommel's Afrika Corps in June 1942.
I would like to thank Ian from the Desert Rats website for allowing me to use the following poem as a tribute to all those who fought and died during the North African campaigns of World War 2.
Out in the desert at Mersa Matruh.
They fought and died like Englishmen.
And lay down their lives at Mersa Matruh.
As soldiers of the empire and British men.
In the western desert of Mersa Matruh.

IBM to produce 90nm chips for Via
Via Technologies' C7 and C7-M (mobile) chips, based on the Esther processor core, will be produced by IBM using a 90nm process.
Published: 17 Sep 2004 11:41
The desktop microprocessors will ship in volume during the first half of next year, said Richard Brown, Via's associate vice-president of marketing.
The 90nm process will allow Via to produce faster chips that require less power.
The company expects that C7 chips with a clock speed of 2GHz that consume the same amount of power as the company's current C3 processors, which are based on the Nehemiah core.
C3 processors consume a maximum of about 18 watts at a clock speed of 1.2GHz, according to the company's website.
The C7 will also include support for a faster 800MHz front-side bus and a larger Level 2 cache.
It extends Via's PadLock Hardware Security Suite to include execution (NX) protection, which prevents malicious code from a worm or virus propagating through a PC's memory.
NX protection is supported by Microsoft Corp.'s Windows XP Service Pack 2.
Via plans to continue selling its C3 processor after the introduction of the C7, and has renamed the mobile version of the C3, now calling it C3-M.

TULELAKE — An offer to more than double the amount the Modoc Tribe of Oklahoma has agreed to pay for the city of Tulelake to purchase the land underlying the Tulelake Airport has been made by The Tule Lake Committee — a group interested in preserving the history of the Japanese-American internment camp there during World War II.
In a letter sent to Tulelake Mayor Hank Ebinger on Thursday, Barbara Takei, the committee's chief financial officer, said the group will pay $40,000 for the property, well over the $17,500 the city negotiated with the Modoc Tribe of Oklahoma.
The Tulelake City Council voted in favor of the sale to the Tribe earlier this month and is scheduled to consider the sale following a public hearing at its July 31 meeting. Under terms of the tentative contract, the Modoc Tribe, based in Miami, Okla., will buy the underlying land for $17,500. The contract stipulates the airport will continue to be used as a public airport.
The Tule Lake Committee includes the descendants and increasingly smaller number of Japanese-Americans who were incarcerated at the Tule Lake Detention-Segregation Center during the World War II years of 1942 to 1946. At its peak, Tule Lake held more than 18,000 Japanese Americans, more than two-thirds of them U.S. citizens. The airport is located on a portion of the former center.
Several years ago, the Tule Lake Committee filed legal action against the city along with Modoc County, which owns the airport, and Macy's Flying Service, which leases the airport. The suits came after Modoc County announced plans to erect a 3-mile long, 8-foot high fence around the airport to prevent possible airplane-wildlife collisions.
Michael Colantuono, the attorney who has represented Tulelake in negotiations with the Modoc Tribe, could not be contacted for comment on whether the city also negotiated with Tule Lake Committee or what might be the result of the group's recent offer.
In her letter Takei wrote, "The Tule Lake Committee is a non-profit corporation dedicated to the public interest in protecting the historic integrity and access to the Tule Lake Segregation Center, a National Historic Monument. We are planning to attend the public hearing on the (July) 31st to reiterate our offer to purchase the Tulelake airport land the city of Tulelake is preparing to sell to the Modoc Tribe of Oklahoma.


Few activities can bring friends and family together as quickly as an afternoon gathered around a good board game, but unfortunately, it's still socially awkward to be that person walking around with a box tucked under his or her arm all the time. Luckily, this is 2014, and all you need is a smartphone or tablet to be equally prepared. Another board game, THE aMAZEing Labyrinth, has made its way onto Google Play, giving you just what you need to entertain others any time, any place.
THE aMAZEing Labyrinth has been around for a quarter century. It tasks up to four players with navigating a maze in search of treasure while rearranging pathways in order to block off their opponents. The Android app maintains the same number of competitors, with support for both local and online multiplayer via Google Play Games. And if you don't have any friends around, or your friends are too lame to recognize a good time, then you can play alone against computer players instead.
The game's all here for just $3.99, which is significantly cheaper than what the physical box set goes for these days.

(THOUGHTS ON LAW SCHOOL)
"Jackass law students often turn into jackass lawyers".
(On Law School Applicant Rejections) "Did they even read your essay on the summer you taught archery to those poor underprivileged blind kids?"
"Your friends will no doubt wonder why you can't go out drinking, or cow tipping or whatever the devil it is you kids do these days with your crazy rock n roll music, sugary cereals and your i-phones"
"You may see more focus placed on practical skills rather than classes on the socio economic forces placed on 16th century Peruvian goat herders and the resulting legal ramifications."
"I just finished law school and passed the grueling bar exam. When do I get my BMW?"
Your "childlike enjoyment of life" usually dies around the time you learn about the rule of perpetuities.
"Often you may feel you are the dumbest in class. You are not. Well, technically one of you has to be the dumbest. Maybe it is you. But, chances are it's not you".
(THOUGHTFUL ADVICE TO CLIENTS)

The Constitution guarantees your right to be a jackass. Just don't yell fire in a movie theater.
(THOUGHTS ON LAWYERS)
"He wasn't a shark. He was a puffer fish with an inferiority complex"
"Of course, contrary to popular opinion, a world without lawyers is a little less sunny".
"We try to adhere to high standards of professionalism, civility and class. Of course, I am sure there are a few lawyers you think deserve a nice wing tipped kick in the res ipsa loquitur."
"He thought I sold my soul to the devil, which is ridiculous. Everyone knows lawyers don't have souls."
(Referring to a recently disbarred attorney) Personally, I am shocked and appalled that a member of the bar would exchange legal work for sex. With a client base that includes the elderly and some burly construction workers, our firm tends to frown on this practice.
(Referring to a Lawyer Arrested for Bank Robbery) "I wonder if it was the briefcase or the tasseled shoes that gave him away."
No one likes to see a colleague fired, unless its the guy who keeps taking your stapler and feels the constant need to tell you who he voted for on American Idol.
(Referring to budgeting decisions) Screw the kid's piano lessons, you want an Audi. Let's be honest, your sausage fingered kid is no Beethoven.
(Referring to the practice of allowing attorneys to "cut the line" when entering a court house.) It always makes me feel like Ray Liotta in "Goodfellas" as he is being led through the kitchen of the Copacabana to his front row table.
(THOUGHTS ON LAWYER ADVERTISING)
(Referring to a Law Firm's Promotional Items) I always wonder when you take that fork in the road. You start off law school with dreams of arguing before the supreme court. Somewhere along the way, you're handing out St. Patty's Day tshirts to drunks with your law firm's phone number.
(Referring to a Law firm that used a celebrity in their advertisements) My firm couldn't attract that kind of star power. The best we could do is a cutout of actor Erik Estrada. I like to place it behind the receptionist desk holding a balloon with our logo on it.
Maybe you don't want to tarnish your firm's reputation with a late night tv spot followed by the steel drums of a Girls Gone Wild infomercial.
(Referring to an attorney with a mobile law office school bus) "Apparently, you can fit more injured clients into a bus than you can a BMW".
Is it really OK to say you have 75 years of combined experience when that "experience" is your 5 years coupled with the 70 years of your semi-retired, half dead, of-counsel partner who keeps calling you "Billy " The guy hasn't seen the inside of courtroom since the Carter administration.

If you are not familiar with World War II, it was the one featured in the Captain America movie.
Post Election advice from my 7 year old nephew after losing a bid for city council "maybe next time don't put your face on the signs."
(On Lawyers who run for Political Office) With our penchant for perfectly coiffed hair and whitened teeth, it is no wonder many attorneys would want to dip their wingtips into the political pool.
(THOUGHTS ON OTHER LEGAL BLOGS)
(Referring to a nationally recognized legal blog's decision to set up dates for readers and then write about all the "juicy" details) "It's like watching DeNiro in Meet the Fockers, you wanna shake him and remind him that he was in Raging Bull."
