John Fox's October 5 "Breakfast Briefing" in Portland, Oregon, was a tremendous success. Sixty-five lawyers and employee relations managers participated in the seminar on workplace smoking, sexual harassment and affirmative action.

    Upcoming seminars will take place in Cleveland, Ohio on November 15 and Seattle, Washington on December 6.

    Early returns suggest a strong turnout for the Cleveland seminar. Fox continues to pursue a relationship with a seminar marketing firm to assure greater efficiency and credibility for the seminar series.

    We are developing a schedule of workplace legal briefings for minority bar associations for the next several months. Mario Obledo has agreed to deliver the presentations. Fox will prepare Obledo on employment law legal theories affecting workplace smoking and on the status of case law. We have identified Phyllis James, a partner of John Fox, to assist us with conducting briefings with black and women's bar associations.
