A Nebraska Criminal Defense Blog - By David Tarrell. Wednesday, February 10, 2010. Changes to the TLC Listserve Coming Soon? About some of the things Jude Basile said when he spoke to TLC alumni in Dallas in November. But, in my experience, those with the power to change listserve rules rarely realize the effect of their actions until they enact them, and learn the hard way. So what changes, if any, do you think TLC, Inc., will make to the listserve? More importantly, will they work out as planned? Last ...

In The Moment: PTSD Tribes Needed
http://nelawyer.blogspot.com/2011/02/ptsd-tribes-needed.html
A Nebraska Criminal Defense Blog - By David Tarrell. Tuesday, February 1, 2011. I just finished Tribes. By Seth Godin. Scott Greenfield. Once wrote a post or two referencing Godin and somehow the name stuck, prompting me to pick it up in the library. The book’s timing was perfect as I’m pondering how best to craft marketing strategy, how to be a better leader, and whether the best way to do this is to take Godin’s advice and become a heretic. I stop in Dick’s Sporting Goods and buy a kayak. I am appointe...

A Nebraska Criminal Defense Blog - By David Tarrell. Tuesday, March 8, 2011. Audiobook Recommendation #3: "The Wisdom of Joseph Campbell". It's been awhile, but I started a series of posts about the best audiobooks I've found over the last few years. Number 3 is a hard to find audiobook of conversations between Joseph Campbell and Michael Toms of New Dimensions radio. Called The Wisdom of Joseph Campbell.

In The Moment: August 2009

A Nebraska Criminal Defense Blog - By David Tarrell. Thursday, August 27, 2009. I was in Douglas County District Court this week when I heard the Thunder Collins. Verdict was about to be announced. I have great respect for his lawyer, Steve Lefler. When I mentioned that I empathized, having not had enough sleep this week and waking up in the wee hours thinking about cases, he said he used to do that too. "Now I sleep like a baby," he said. Links to this post. Thursday, August 6, 2009. Then the Chicago Po...

http://nelawyer.blogspot.com/2011/02/stuttering-kings-speech.html
A Nebraska Criminal Defense Blog - By David Tarrell. Sunday, February 27, 2011. Stuttering: The King's Speech. To those of you who’ve never stuttered this must sound crazy. In fact, reading over it and putting it down on the page makes me laugh at myself. How is it that I cannot simply say a simple sound? 8221; or “Do you think I’m that stupid? I approached the President of ATLA my first week of law school and announced that I wanted to join. I expected her to hand me a sign up sheet or a brochure, b...

A Nebraska Criminal Defense Blog - By David Tarrell. Sunday, September 20, 2009. Why We Need Healthcare Reform. My daughter asked if her 15-year old best friend could stay the week, as one parent is going out of town and the other doesn't have room in the apartment that she shares with a friend to save money. Last Friday morning, after I agreed to this, my daughter told me:. Links to this post. The only downside to the morning came from a few of the police officers who waited along the route. I knew ...

A Nebraska Criminal Defense Blog - By David Tarrell. Sunday, January 23, 2011. Law Review about The Wire. I read a great law review article recently about The Wire. Which is available here. 8221;) with preconceived beliefs, stories which feature defense attorneys as pro-crime, and systemic problems as simple, and solvable, if we’d simply stop that pesky Constitution from getting in the way of “the good guys” who work for the government. This reminds me of the Supreme Court case Garcetti v. Ceballos.
