Students were wowed by the tall buildings of downtown Phoenix and enjoyed the trip.
First stop was "The Old Courthouse" and everyone had to go through a metal detector.
We spent a good deal of time in Judge Barton's courtroom and she gave us lots of information about the history of The Old Courthouse. She pointed out the lack of technology and even how some technology was impossible to incorporate because the building was built so long ago. She very patiently answered many of our questions, too!
Next, we headed across the street to the much more modern, South Court Tower. We took a combination of escalators and elevators all the way up to a courtroom on the 8th floor.
When we arrived, the person in charge of technology for the entire building gave a presentation about the technology used in the building including assistive technology (which several students got to test), microphones, projectors, and document cameras. This was very different than The Old Courthouse!
Next, students took a seat in the jury box and we heard two different mock trials.
First, Goldilocks took the stand and tried to convince us she was not guilty of breaking and entering and burglary in the home of the three bears.
The interrogation was pretty intense, and unfortunately, Goldilocks was quickly found guilty.
Next, Gretel of Hansel and Gretel took the stand. She explained to us how her poor brother had been captured and caged by an evil witch and she feared for her life!
After a brief deliberation, the jury found Gretel not guilty and she was free to go!
Thanks so much to our wonderful parent volunteers for all your help with this field trip and a HUGE thanks to Mr. Vingelli for all his hard work coordinating and setting everything up! | law |

CNN said it was dropping its lawsuit on Acosta’s access, a case that raised concerns over constitutional rights for the press.
“Today the @WhiteHouse fully restored @Acosta’s press pass,” CNN said on Twitter. “As a result, our lawsuit is no longer necessary. We look forward to continuing to cover the White House.”
The White House said it also issued new rules that call for journalists to “ask a single question” and then “yield the floor.” Follow-up questions will only be taken “at the discretion of the president or other White House official.” | law |

Evolving Privacy Concerns as Digital Marketing Grows
by Guest Blogger
Chances are you’ve heard something about “GDPR” within the past year or so; it refers to the General Data Protection Regulation enacted by the European Union last May, landmark legislation requiring all businesses to protect the personal data and privacy of European citizens.
For more information about Quanex visit www.quanex.com
What is “personal data”? The European Union defines it this way: “Personal data is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable living individual. Different pieces of information, which collected together can lead to the identification of a particular person, also constitute personal data.” Examples include obvious things like names, home addresses and email addresses—along with other data like IP addresses, cookies and more.
For any company doing business online, and especially those who capture leads through a website, social channels or any other means, GDPR had an impact. Any website visitors residing in the EU were now protected by the new law, and companies who aren’t in compliance were subject to significant penalties.
The impact for U.S.-based companies? Per Workplace Privacy Report:
For example, if your organization is a U.S. company with an internet presence, selling or marketing products over the web or even merely offering a marketing survey globally, you may be subject to the GDPR. That said, general global marketing does not usually apply. If you use Google AdWords and a French resident stumbles upon your webpage, the GDPR likely would not apply to the company solely on that basis. If, however, your website pursues EU residents—accepts the currency of an EU country, has a domain suffix for an EU country, offers shipping services to an EU country, provides translation in the language of an EU country or markets in the language of an EU country, the GDPR will apply to your company.
So, what about companies doing business purely in the U.S.? A regional window manufacturer or dealer—who might capture online leads from their territory but isn’t pursuing anything outside that geography—might think they have nothing to worry about, and they might be right. But just in case, pursuing compliance is probably good practice anyway.
Now, though, we’re seeing greater data privacy laws take effect domestically. The , for instance, goes into effect on Jan. 1, 2020, and it is of similar scope to what happened in the EU last year. The new law grants many new privacy rights to California residents, “starting with the right to be informed about what kinds of personal data companies have collected and why it was collected,” according to the Harvard Business Review. “Among other novel protections, the law stipulates that consumers have the right to request the deletion of personal information, opt out of the sale of personal information, and access the personal information in a ‘readily useable format’ that enables its transfer to third parties without hindrance.”
Digital marketing continues to transform how we do business, and privacy concerns and new laws like that going into effect in California are important parts of the picture. It’s something that any company doing business online—whether it’s to market products, capture leads or anything else—should be proactively working with their teams to prepare for.

- make the personal use, possession, and limited home-growing of marijuana legal for adults 21 years of age and older;
- establish a system in which marijuana is regulated and taxed similarly to alcohol; and
- allow for the cultivation, processing, and sale of industrial hemp.
Specifically, the bills would remove all legal penalties for personal possession of up to one ounce of marijuana and for the home-growing of up to six marijuana plants (three of which may be mature) in an enclosed, secure space. Adults 21 and older could also possess the marijuana harvested from their plants at the location where they were grown. No landlord would have to allow cultivation or marijuana smoking on rented property, and the public smoking of marijuana would remain illegal.
The legislation directs the Comptroller to develop regulations and licensing for four types of state-legal marijuana businesses — retail stores, cultivation facilities, marijuana product manufacturers, and testing facilities. Localities would have the right to regulate time, place, and manner, as well as provide input on licensing, which would be granted substantial weight. No more than one retailer for every 20,000 residents would be allowed, except that every county would have at least two retailers. Local governments could further restrict the number of marijuana businesses, as long as they were not completely prohibited.
The Comptroller would be required to develop regulations restricting advertising, regulating the use of pesticides, and establishing security standards. Marijuana businesses would have to be at least 1,000 feet away from schools and typically could not allow anyone under 21 to enter.
The Marijuana Control Act of 2014 would impose an excise tax of $50 per ounce on the sale of marijuana by a cultivation facility, which would generate an estimated $91.3 million per year. The tax rate may be adjusted for inflation or deflation, based on the Consumer Price Index. The first $5 million of revenue raised annually would be directed towards drug addiction treatment and education. | law |

Getting married at one of our Jewel resorts in Jamaica? Ensure your special day goes as smoothly as possible by taking care of all of the necessary requirements to make your marriage legal.
Applying for a Jamaican marriage license:
Rather than applying for a Jamaican license from the Ministry of Justice prior to the ceremony, couples can simply send the necessary information to Jewel and have it taken care of for them. The cost of the license starts at around US $75, depending on the exchange rate, and couples must be on the property 48 hours before the wedding.
Identification required for a Jamaican marriage license:
Come prepared with the following documents translated in English:
Jamaican marriage license:
- Photo identification plus proof of citizenship (certified copy of birth certificate which includes father’s name)
- Certified copy of death certificate for widow or widower
- Certified copy of divorce decree
- Certified copy of adoption papers reflecting a name change
- Certified copy of any other name change documents
- Parental written consent if either party is under 18
- Italian nationals must notify their embassy and have a certified copy of their marriage certificate forwarded to their embassy to be legalized and translated
- French Canadians need a notarized translated copy of all documents and a photocopy of the original French documents
Newlyweds will receive a certified copy of the license in English four to eight months following the ceremony. | law |

He denies all these accusations, and the case will continue in court, as reported by “Deutsche Welle”. Lisa Jani, the person responsible for public relations at the court, confirmed this in a statement sent to the news portal. “The main hearing will begin in May. We will provide more details when the time comes,” Lisa said. The judge initially stated that there was insufficient evidence for a trial, but Aleksander refused to settle. As a result, he will have to appear in court in May and present his defense.
His lawyers have called the procedure and everything that happened during the first trial “scandalous”, and claim that “valid evidence was not presented.” The trial will take place in May, although the exact date is still awaited. However, it is known that the French Open starts on May 26, so Zverev might potentially miss the grand slam in France due to his scheduled court appearance. (MONDO – N.S.) | law |

On behalf of his clients he’s won major legislative battles to reform payday lending, expand Colorado’s renewable energy standard, and protect community banks.
Before founding Headwaters Strategies in 2009, Will served as the chief of staff to House Speaker Terrance Carroll and the Democratic Caucus. In that role he advised the Speaker, Majority Leader and caucus members on all matters of business before the House.

Over four years he became the leading advocate for environmental issues in the state capitol. He won multiple legislative victories on a variety of policy matters: clean air, clean water, renewable energy and open space. Once Gov. Bill Ritter was elected in 2006, Will led the advocacy effort for the Governor’s first major policy initiative, to require that 20% of Colorado’s electricity come from renewable energy sources.
Before moving to Colorado in 2003, Will was a policy analyst for the Frontier Group, the research arm of the State Public Interest Research Groups in Santa Barbara, CA. He graduated from Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH.

The important points to note are that first, this law protects; literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic work, typographical arrangements of published editions, sound recordings and film. (An extension to this law also covered computer programs).
Second, copyright is an automatic right, therefore it arises every time either an individual or a company produces a piece of work that is original and demonstrates a notable level of work, skill or judgement – for this reason copyright applies to the actual creation rather than the idea behind it and shorter elements like titles and short phrases are not copyright protected. However, pieces that combine these smaller elements, like a logo, are copyright protected!
Copyright Law Restricted Acts:
“Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1998″ url=”http://www.copyrightservice.co.uk/copyright/p01_uk_copyright_law”]“It is an offense to perform any of the following acts without consent of the owner: Copy the work, Rent, lend or issue copies of the work to the public, Perform, broadcast or show the work in public, Adapt the work. The author of a work or a director of a film may also have certain moral rights: The right to be identified as the author, Right to object to derogatory treatment”
So there you have it in a nutshell, UK copyright laws. You have been warned and informed.
For information on U.S. copyright laws relating specifically to the use of logos online try this source.
So how do you approach getting permission to use another company’s logo on your website?
Well good old fashioned courtesy goes a long way. You need to email the appropriate contact at the company who owns the logo you want to use, taking the time to outline how you will use that logo if permission is granted e.g. on what page of your website and for what reason and ask for their consent to use it. This person should have the authority to grant you that consent there and then, or be able to forward your request on to the people who can. The benefit of emailing your request rather than telephoning is that it allows you to keep a paper trail of your request and hopefully your permissions, if granted.
If approval of your request is granted, again to maintain that paper trail, ask for a copy to be sent to you and for it to be signed, then once you have that company’s logo legally in place on your website, send a screenshot of it in use back to the owners to demonstrate how it is being used and to prevent and protect you from conflicts over use in the future.
Essentially, going through the permissions process and indeed using that company’s logo on your website, all serves to build a business relationship between you. So, being polite, professional and thorough can only serve to strengthen that relationship and establish respect and good faith.
One Last Word of Warning
The consequences of failing to ask permission of use before publicly displaying a logo you do not have copyright for will certainly lead to some form of legal action, and possibly result in fines and damages. Here are 5 famous copyright infringement cases to learn from.
So take the time to send that email!

The vast amount of personal information we share online, coupled with the growing threat of data breaches and cybercrime, emphasizes the need to understand the legal considerations surrounding digital privacy and data security. In this article, we will explore the importance of protecting your digital privacy, the legal frameworks in place, and best practices to safeguard your data in today’s digital landscape.
The Importance of Digital Privacy and Data Security
Digital privacy and data security are essential for several reasons. First and foremost, they protect our personal information from unauthorized access, ensuring that sensitive data remains confidential. In an era where identity theft and online scams are prevalent, safeguarding personal information is crucial to prevent financial and reputational damage. Moreover, digital privacy and data security foster trust in online platforms, enabling individuals to share information and engage in digital transactions with confidence.
Legal Framework for Digital Privacy and Data Security
To address the challenges posed by digital privacy and data security, several legal frameworks have been established at both national and international levels. One notable regulation is the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) implemented by the European Union (EU). The GDPR outlines strict guidelines regarding the collection, storage, and processing of personal data, giving individuals greater control over their information and imposing significant responsibilities on organizations handling such data. Similarly, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) in the United States grants California residents certain rights over their personal information and mandates transparency from businesses regarding data collection practices.
In addition to data protection laws like the GDPR and CCPA, countries around the world have enacted privacy laws and regulations that safeguard individuals’ privacy rights. These laws dictate how personal information should be collected, used, and disclosed, empowering individuals with rights such as access to their data, the ability to request its deletion, and the option to opt-out of certain data processing activities. Furthermore, cybersecurity laws aim to protect against cyber threats and unauthorized access to data. They require organizations to implement robust security measures, report data breaches promptly, and safeguard sensitive information from external threats.
Best Practices for Protecting Digital Privacy and Data Security
While legal frameworks provide a foundation for digital privacy and data security, individuals must also take proactive measures to protect their data. Here are some best practices to consider:
Use Strong and Unique Passwords: Implement strong, unique passwords for each online account and consider using a password manager to securely store them.
Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Add an extra layer of security by enabling 2FA, which requires a second form of verification, such as a unique code sent to your mobile device.
Encrypt Sensitive Data
Utilize encryption tools or services to encrypt sensitive data, such as emails and files, ensuring that even if unauthorized access occurs, the information remains unreadable.
Keep Software Updated
Regularly update your operating system, applications, and security software to protect against known vulnerabilities and exploits.
Exercise Caution with Personal Information
Be mindful of the personal information you share online, especially on public platforms. Limit the disclosure of sensitive data and verify the legitimacy of websites and services before providing any personal details.
Secure Your Wi-Fi
Use strong, password-protected Wi-Fi networks to prevent unauthorized access to your internet connection and the data transmitted over it.
Regularly Backup Your Data
Backup important data regularly to a secure location to mitigate the risks associated with data loss, hardware failure, or ransomware attacks.
Understand Privacy Policies
Familiarize yourself with the privacy policies of websites and online services you use. Ensure they align with your expectations and understand how your personal information is collected, used, and shared.
Challenges and Emerging Trends
As technology continues to advance, new challenges and emerging trends impact digital privacy and data security. The Internet of Things (IoT), comprising interconnected devices that collect and transmit data, introduces additional vulnerabilities. Securing IoT devices and protecting the data they generate pose unique challenges that require attention.
Furthermore, the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics raises concerns about the potential misuse of personal information. Ethical considerations and transparent data processing practices are necessary to maintain trust in AI systems and protect individuals’ privacy.
In conclusion, digital privacy and data security are crucial in today’s digital age. Understanding the legal considerations, following best practices, and staying informed about emerging trends will empower individuals and organizations to protect their digital privacy and ensure data security. By adopting a proactive and responsible approach, we can navigate the digital landscape with confidence, safeguarding our personal information and preserving trust in the digital realm. | law |

If you own gold and are considering selling it, you might wonder whether you need to report the transaction to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The answer depends on various factors, including the amount of gold you’re selling and the purpose of the transaction.
In this article, we’ll delve into the intricacies of IRS regulations surrounding the sale of gold and provide comprehensive information to help you navigate this process.
Understanding IRS Reporting Requirements: The IRS requires taxpayers to report their income from various sources, including the sale of precious metals like gold. However, not all transactions are subject to reporting requirements. The key factors that determine whether you need to report the sale of gold to the IRS include:
- Type of Transaction: The IRS distinguishes between two types of transactions involving gold: ordinary transactions and collectibles transactions. Ordinary transactions involve the sale of gold for its market value, while collectibles transactions refer to the sale of gold coins, bullion, or other collectible items that are held for investment purposes. Collectibles transactions generally have different tax implications.
- Amount of Gain: The threshold for reporting the sale of gold to the IRS is based on the amount of gain you realize from the sale. If the gain from a single transaction falls below a certain limit, you might not be required to report it. This limit, however, is subject to change, so it’s essential to consult the latest IRS guidelines for the most accurate information.
Reporting Requirements for Gold Sales: As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, here’s a general overview of reporting requirements for gold sales:
- Ordinary Transactions: If you sell gold in an ordinary transaction (e.g., selling gold jewelry or bars at the current market price), the IRS might not require you to report the sale if the gain is less than $600. This threshold is for single transactions. Keep in mind that while you might not need to report such transactions, you are still responsible for reporting any capital gains on your tax return.
- Collectibles Transactions: If you sell gold coins or bullion that are considered collectibles, the reporting threshold is much lower. You are generally required to report any gain from the sale of collectibles regardless of the amount. The gain is typically taxed at a higher rate than gains from ordinary transactions.
Exceptions and Additional Considerations: It’s important to note that tax laws and regulations can change over time, and the thresholds mentioned above might no longer be accurate at the time of your gold sale. Additionally, if you are subject to certain IRS requirements due to other factors (such as being a dealer in precious metals or engaging in large-volume transactions), you might have reporting obligations even for transactions that fall below the mentioned thresholds.
Conclusion: The question of how much gold you can sell without reporting to the IRS involves various factors, including the type of transaction, the amount of gain, and the current tax regulations. While there might be reporting thresholds for ordinary transactions, it’s crucial to stay informed about the latest IRS guidelines and consult with a tax professional to ensure compliance with all reporting requirements. Selling gold can have tax implications, so taking a proactive and informed approach is key to avoiding potential issues with the IRS. | law |

U.S. immigration laws allow certain family members of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents (“green card” holders) to get a “green card” based on specific family relationships. We find, however, that people have many misconceptions regarding the process of petitioning for your relative, applying for a family-based “green card”, etc. We want to make sure that you avoid mistakes in this process, which mistakes could be very costly. And, as we have done so for hundreds of our clients from all parts of the world, we would like to assist you with keeping your family together.
If you are the spouse, unmarried child (under 21 years of age) or parent of a U.S. citizen (if the U.S. citizen is 21 years of age or older), you are eligible to be qualified as an immediate relative of a U.S. citizen and, if you meet certain eligibility requirements, you can become a lawful permanent resident in the United States (i.e., to get a “green card”). The number of immigrants as immediate relatives of U.S. citizens is not limited each fiscal year.
If you are not an immediate family member of a U.S. citizen, you may still be eligible to become a permanent resident in the United States if you fall within one of the following family “preference immigrant” categories:
- unmarried sons and daughters, 21 years of age and older, of U.S. citizens (first preference – F1);
- spouses and children (unmarried and under 21 years of age) of lawful permanent residents (second preference – F2A);
- unmarried sons and daughters (21 years of age and older) of lawful permanent residents (second preference – F2B);
- married sons and daughters of U.S. citizens (third preference – F3);
- brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens (if the U.S. citizen is 21 years of age and older) (fourth preference – F4).
The number of immigrants in these categories is limited each fiscal year.
Regardless of whether you are an immediate relative of a U.S. citizen or are in one of the “preference categories”, you will need to go either through the process of “adjustment of status” with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) (if you are in the United States and eligible for adjustment of status) or through consular processing overseas in order to become a lawful permanent resident.
We will be happy to represent you and your family member during the process of adjustment of status or consular processing. Doing everything right from the very beginning can expedite the whole process, save you time and money, and help you avoid costly mistakes.

Many people from all walks of life are trying to gain admittance into law programs around the world, and for reasons that we will soon uncover some of these programs have become extremely selective. Here to help you out with that are five helpful law school admission tips.
1. Admission into Law School Comes Down to Two Scores
Believe it or not, admission to law school boils down to two scores: your GPA and the LSAT. Everything from that point on is a standard college application, but make no mistake, those two scores will ultimately decide your fate. These additional materials consist of specific essays and a (typically at least three) letters of recommendation. Take care to ensure that you put your best foot forward with your application, do not slack on the essay(s), and request letters from advisers, colleagues, and mentors who can vouch for you.
2. Yep, The LSAT and Your GPA Really are that Important
It doesn’t matter if you received your bachelors in cyber security from Boston University, or a bachelor in Art History from UC Berkeley, your LSAT and GPA scores matter due to the fact that they directly affect the school’s overall ranking. As such, the admissions dean in charge of your application will want to ensure that the ranking stays close to what it is. The higher the ranking, the more favorably the school is perceived, the more people are enticed to apply to the school.
3. More on the LSAT
Here is something very important to keep in mind regarding the LSAT: experts on law school acceptance procedures advise applicants to not worrying about taking the test multiple times if their first score is already high enough. The school evaluating you will only consider your highest score. This is largely due to the fact that schools have altered their policies concerning multiple scores, making them less rigorous than they used to be.
4. About that GPA
Along with a good LSAT score, you will want your GPA sitting somewhere around 3.5. Do be aware that if your GPA is close to or below 2.5, even alongside a decent LSAT score, your application will likely be rejected.
5. Tailor Your Application to the People Processing It
From the perspective of the people processing your application, an increased number of applicants results in a decreased acceptance rate, which is very good for the school as they will then be able to generate more money from application fees and, concurrently, accumulate funds in the form of donations from both alumni and various benefactors. | law |

"7.4 The Committee notes that the authors' refusal to be drafted for compulsory militaryservice was a direct expression of their religious beliefs which, it is uncontested, were genuinely held and that the authors’ subsequent conviction and sentence amounted to an infringement of their freedom of conscience and a restriction on their ability to manifest their religion or belief. The Committee finds that as the State party has not demonstrated that in the present cases the restrictions in question were necessary, within the meaning of article 18, paragraph 3, it has violated article 18, paragraph 1, of the Covenant.
8. The Human Rights Committee, acting under article 5, paragraph 4, of the Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, concludes that the facts before the Committee reveal, in respect of each author, violations by the Republic of Korea of article 18, paragraph 1 of the Covenant."
The Committee also pointed out that the South Korean state is "under an obligation to provide the authors with an effective remedy, including compensation. The State party is under an obligation to avoid similar violations of the Covenant in the future."
Korea Solidarity for Conscientious Objection (KSCO) informed War Resisters' International that a decision on a further 488 cases from South Korea is still pending. She also said that the conscientious objectors intend to sue the South Korean government for compensation.
The Human Rights Committee "wishes to receive from the State party, within 180 days, information about the measures taken to give effect to the Committee's Views."

A South Korean judge again filed a petition with the Constitutional Court on the constitutionality of the country's Military Service Act in the case of a conscientious objector who refused military service, JoongAng Daily reported on 10 September 2009. The judge claims that clause 1 of article 88 of the Military Service Act - "If a person who has received a draft notice for active duty or Notice of Summons (including Notice of Summons for voluntary enlistment), without justifiable cause, does not report for service within the period specified in the following clauses or refuses the summons, then he shall be sentenced to a prison term of three years or less." - conflicts with Article 19 of the South Korean constitution, which guarantees freedom of thought, conscience, and religion. “The clause in the military service act is unconstitutional by excessively violating freedom of conscience by forcing conscientious objectors to do their military duty and then punishing them,” the judge said.
“Legislators are responsible for creating alternatives to resolve the conflict,” Judge Park said, arguing that punishing conscientious objectors without providing any alternative forms of national service violates the principle that infringements upon basic rights must be minimised.
The country's Constitutional Court last dealt with the question of conscientious objection in 2001.
While the Court ruled back then that clause 1 of article 88 of the Military Service Act is constitutional, it also made some recommendations to the legislator: "The legislator has the duty to relieve the conflict in conscience by providing, to the extent that freedom of conscience specified in Article 19 of the Constitution does not damage public interests or legal order, alternative plans such as other possible options that can take the place of the legal duty or case-by-case exemptions from the legal duty, and if he can not provide such options, then he should at least consider if mitigation or exemption in punishments and penalties imposed for violating the duty can be permitted in order to protect the freedom of conscience.
Therefore, the legislator should earnestly consider whether there is a plan that can relieve the conflict between freedom of conscience and the public interest of national security and make the two interests coexist in harmony, whether there is an alternative plan that can protect the conscience of objectors to military service while preserving the public interest of national security, and whether our society has matured to the point where it can now show understanding and tolerance toward conscientious objectors, and even if the legislator decides, upon further review, to not adopt a system of alternative service, it should be considered whether the legislature would move in a direction to help protect conscience by having organizations that apply the law act in a manner that is legally more friendly to conscience."
Since then, the Human Rights Committee of the United Nations has decided on two individual complaints from South Korea. In its decision on Yeo-Bum Yoon and Mr. Myung-Jin Choi vs. Republik of Korea, the Human Rights Committee came to the conclusion that not to provide for conscientious objection is a violation of the right to freedom of thought, conscience, and religion.
Since then, the former South Korean government had originally announced in September 2007 to introduce the right to conscientious objection. However, the present government backtracked on this promise, citing opinion polls as an excuse.
Presently, almost 500 individual complaints of conscientious objectors are pending at the Human Rights Committee. These, plus the new petition to the Constitutional Court, might increase pressure on the South Korean government to finally comply with its obligations under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and to recognise the right to conscientious objection.

The armed Forces are War-Making Machines
Declaration of conscientious objection - Jungmin Oh
originally published 09 Apr 2009 — war resisters international
To be liberated or to be incarcerated? It is an unavoidably acute question. The world we live in, at the global level, is constantly at war. Not surprisingly, as of the beginning of January 2009, we can see the war currently continuing in Gaza. The 20th century is remembered as an age of wars and presumably so will be the 21st. The US government started the 'war on terror' against Iraq after the 11 September attacks. The Iraq war was nothing but another dreadful war. Not only were the nation state of Iraq and the terrorists deemed to be enemies of the US, but the US clearly declared this was a war against evil. Clarifying who is evil requires great care. Nonetheless, we have observed that any person or group, especially anti-war groups and Muslims, can be regarded as 'evil'. The fact that the concept of 'evil' is too abstract to be defined may lead to a situation where, at one time or another, citizens of a country as well as people outside it are considered to be enemies. An enemy can now exist anywhere regardless of the borders among nation states. When we ourselves at any time can be labelled as an enemy, it can possibly be said that at that moment we live in the age of wars.
The South Korean government have been taking part in the war in Iraq. In 2003, it decided to send troops there despite the lack of proof that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. Despite the daily demonstration against this decision, and the kidnapping and beheading by Iraqi militants of a South Korean, Kim Sun-il, the government didn't cancel the deployment plan. Instead, it introduced an Anti-Terrorism Act, based on their view that the people are potential terrorists. This was exactly the same as what happened in the US.
I was among the crowd protesting against the war in Iraq and the deployment of Korean troops. Despite our efforts, South Korean troops were sent. In the end, it was revealed that Iraq didn't have any weapons of mass destruction, which meant the US government was wrong. Notwithstanding, the South Korean government and the people who supported the government's decision neither apologised for their lie nor took any responsibility for the result - an absolutely intolerable reaction.
I believe the armed forces are simply just one of national institutions whose reason for existence is to prepare for wars. The armed forces always prepare for a war, even when there is no war. Hence, the military is by no means 'an organisation which prevents a war'. In fact, it is an organisation that makes war. I do not find any reason for which I ought to do my military service in this kind of armed force. Refusing to be called up follows ineluctably from my determination to liberate myself instead of living imprisoned as a human being living in a so-called 'the age of war'.
A War is Incompatible with Democracy
War cannot be compatible with democracy. Rather, war is a retreat from democracy. Article 5 of the South Korean constitution states that 'the Republic of Korea endeavours to maintain international peace and renounces all aggressive wars'. Accordingly, the South Korean government's has breached the constitution in sending troops to Vietnam and Iraq, wars that we avoidable and aggressive, not in self-defence. The US government presented the war on Iraq as 'preventive war'. If this invasion was not an aggressive war, which war can be considered aggressive? The South Korean government have definitely been infringing democracy by breaking the constitution. Not only will respect for the constitution be restored, but also there will be no democracy until the government stop doing such iniquitous things. I have decided, in a desperate resort to defend our democracy, not to do military service on behalf of the government which neither apologise for the result caused by their participation of the aggressive wars nor take any responsibility for that.
Democracy is constituent power
Democracy in Korea was again set back in July and August 2004. The Korean Supreme Court, on 15 July 2004, found conscientious objectors guilty, while the South Korean Constitutional Court, on 26 August 2004, rejected a constitutional challenge to article 88 of the Military Service Act. I am against these nationalistic decisions which state that the 'duty of national defence' is more important than 'individual's freedom of conscience'. As long as such decisions continue to be made, the right to freedom will remain infringed by nationalistic reasoning. Underlying a written constitution is the practice of the people. Article 1, Section 2 of the South Korean constitution states that 'the sovereignty of the Republic of Korea resides in the people, and all state authority emanates from the people'. This means the source of power to establish a constitution, constituent power, originates from the people. A constitutional code is temporary: it can be amended by constituent power whenever needed. A duty of national defence and a nation itself cannot exist unless a member of a nation exists. Therefore, it is the people's will, not nation's one, which should be respected. This is what I think democracy is.
This is the reason for my objection to military service. I feel guilt towards my parents. This pain may be the same as what other conscientious objectors, their family, lovers, friends and their supporters have gone through up until now. I would really like to apologise to my parents for my decision to object military service while I also would like to console other conscientious objectors. I hope the step we take today will lead to another pleasurable step on our way to democracy.

All South Korean male citizens are conscripted to perform military service for 2 years. While most people reluctantly succumb to the extreme state and social pressure to serve, a small but increasingly vocal number of individuals are choosing go to prison instead of joining the military. For adhering to their principles, they are punished with a prison sentence of a year and a half, a permanent criminal record, and social stigma. There is currently no alternative option given to those who object to serving in the military.
There are 450 objectors now in prison. Their reasons for objection are varied. While the majority of them have religious reasons (mostly Jehovah's witnesses) others have political or moral beliefs and are active in the peace movement that has been growing during the last several years in Korea.
Eun-gook (Eun-guk/은국), a traditional Korean medicine doctor, is one peace activist who declared his objection last February. His declaration was made during a press conference in Seoul on the day he was supposed to enlist.
In March 2003, Eun-guk was involved in one of the anti-war peace activist groups in Iraq where the United States proclaimed war and the Korean government decided to dispatch Korean soldiers. Since then, Eun-gook kept thinking about objecting to his conscription for the last 6 years. | law |

Samuel’s side had mentioned not receiving a proper payment statement from Brave Entertainment and being forced to participate in the CEO’s personal events as some of the reasons to invalidate his contract.
On September 21, Star News revealed an interview with a source close to Samuel who did not reveal their identity. The interviewee started off by saying, “I felt that something was off when the company took him to the Philippines and Japan.”
“When Kim Samuel asked them to show him the statement of accounts for his activities since his debut in January 2015 regardless of whether there had been a profit or a loss, they refused to show it to him. When he started off his solo debut promotions after ‘Produce 101,’ it didn’t seem like it would work out. So we weren’t able to see the statement of accounts for three to four years, and when we finally received it in May 2018, it wasn’t an official statement of accounts, but an unprofessional printout that couldn’t be verified. But when we looked at it closely, there was an item that indicated a loss of 600 million won (approximately $506,800) from his promotions as 1PUNCH.”
Bringing up Samuel’s past activities as part of the duo 1PUNCH with rapper ONE, the source shared, “They never showed Kim Samuel his contract when he promoted with ONE. After their debut, ONE appeared on ‘Show Me the Money’ and immediately left for YG Entertainment, and there was no compensation for damages to the team. It turned out that the contract had no clause about liability for damages. The contract was like a sham, and ONE’s agency at the time is playing dumb about it.”
According to the source, when Brave Entertainment’s lawyer stated at their recent hearing that Samuel had not made any profit through his activities, they were taking into account the loss from his promotions as 1PUNCH.
The interviewee then mentioned the events Samuel attended overseas, namely in Japan and China. Regarding the event in Japan, the source explained, “[Brave Entertainment] hastily got him to sign the contract for the event in Japan as if it were a simple document of consent for overseas travel. It was revealed during the lawsuit that [the company] had received 800 million won (approximately $675,680) on the condition of an exclusive contract with Kim Samuel, that they did not give him the final version of the contract when the contract indicated that they had to, and that the advance payment of 500 million won (approximately $422,300) was omitted from the statement of accounts without his knowledge.”
In regards to the event in China, the source said, “It was an exclusive contract between a certain company and Kim Samuel, but [Brave Entertainment] stated that they could not show him the contract because it was a contract between the two companies that was unrelated to Kim Samuel. Even during the trial, they did not reveal the contract, so [Samuel’s side] said they tried to see the contract by filing a criminal complaint.”
Previously, Samuel sued Brave Entertainment’s CEO Brave Brothers for forgery and fraudulent use of private documents, but the charges were dropped by the police. The interviewee shared more details about the blockchain-related event linked to this lawsuit. “The company used Kim Samuel, a minor, for the CEO’s blockchain business by deceiving and lying to him. The event that Brave Entertainment is referring to is the following: Kim Samuel was used as a decoy at the venue of the BRST coin expo, and at 10 p.m., he was made to sing one song on a small and shabby stage inside a hotel’s conference room that was unrelated to the event. When we protested that they show us the contract because a contract must certainly exist, they reluctantly showed us a contract revealing that there were two more blockchain-related events he had to attend.”
The source emphasized that the primary goal of Samuel’s lawsuit was to terminate his contract with Brave Entertainment, adding, “The money-related issues come second. His contract with Brave Entertainment expires next January, and the lawsuit has been prolonged.”
As a final message, the interviewee commented, “Many kids these days who want to become idols since elementary school sign with an agency and invest their lives and time into their agency with trust in them. When I think about the many teenagers who may be treated unfairly like Kim Samuel, it breaks my heart.”
Regarding the matter, a source from Brave Entertainment stated to Star News, “We are working hard to smoothly resolve the conflict with Samuel.”

Released under the umbrella of Kemosabe Records, Dr. Luke’s label, a subsidiary of Sony Music, ‘Gag Order’ was the last project that contractually linked Kesha Rose to the producer whom she has accused of sexual and psychological abuse.
The contract finally ended last week, a source confirms to Variety, indicating that Kesha’s departure has been “amicable.” Kesha has worked with Kemosabe, RCA Records and Vector Management. Her separation from Dr. Luke is now a fact.
Last June, Kesha and Dr. Luke reached a legal settlement, ending a decade of accusations and counteraccusations. In a joint statement, Kesha wrote that “only God knows what happened that night,” and Dr. Luke said “I am sure nothing happened.” | law |

2015 continues to be a decisive year for Internet governance. As in 2014 with the passage of Marco Civil and the NETmundial Meeting, Brazil is again in the focus of this year’s developments as the tenth meeting of the UN Internet Governance Forum (IGF) will convene in João Pessoa in November. Titled “Evolution of Internet Governance: Empowering Sustainable Development,” in anticipation of this year’s IGF, human rights advocates have already begun to ask whether Brazil’s approach to internet governance might serve as a model for the rest of the world.
Brazil 2014: Marco Civil and NETmundial
In April 2014, a Global Multistakeholder Meeting on the Future of Internet Governance, also known as NETmundial, was hosted by the Brazilian government in São Paulo. NETmundial brought together over nine hundred attendees from governments, international organizations, the private sector, and civil society and resulted in the adoption of a (non-binding) Internet Governance Roadmap. Following the meeting, a number of pieces reviewed and commented on NETmundial’s outcome and final documents. The Center for Global Communication’s Internet Policy Observatory, for example, published Beyond NETmundial: The Roadmap for Institutional Improvements to the Global Internet Governance Ecosystem to explore how sections of “NETmundial Multistakeholder Statement” could be implemented. The meeting also played host to a series diverging narratives not only between governments, States, and civil society, but also among various civil society actors.
Symbolically, on the first day of NETmundial, President Rousseff signed into law the Marco Civil da Internet – a law which many see as a benchmark for a modern, freedom-oriented approach to internet regulation. The Marco Civil was developed through a consultation process which included the participation of civil society, and discussions and debates over online platforms. The legislation provides general safeguards for the rights to freedom of expression and privacy, as well as a guarantee of net neutrality. One much applauded provision of the law is that service providers do not hold liability for content. Providers have no responsibility for users’ actions, and there are only sanctions against providers if they do not fulfill court orders to remove content. The law also contains an obligation to adopt a multistakeholder model of internet governance at all levels.
The NETmundial meeting was criticized by some states, including Saudi-Arabia, for its lack of transparency and for not being held under the auspices of the United Nations. According to this position, meetings should be held in the Economic and Social Council or other United Nations bodies (which could be read as a support for ITU activities in internet governance).
UN Special Rapporteur on “The Right to Privacy in the Digital Age”
Following NETmundial, Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff and German chancellor Angela Merkel co-sponsored a resolution on the right to privacy in the digital age. This resolution passed the UN General Assembly’s human rights committee by consensus in November 2014. The draft builds on Resolution 68/167, the predecessor text also co-sponsored by Brazil and Germany and submitted to the General Assembly in December 2013. While the 2013 resolution was supported by fifty-five countries, the recent resolution was co-sponsored by sixty-five countries.
The new resolution calls upon Member States to review their procedures, practices, and legislation on the surveillance of communications (including the interception and collection of personal data) with the goal of upholding the right to privacy and all relevant obligations under international human rights law.
The new resolution explicitly mentions metadata in the context of digital surveillance and reaffirms the responsibility of private parties to respect human rights when dealing with personal data. The law concludes that States are also obligated to respect human rights when they use private companies for surveillance purposes. Although they are non-binding, such resolutions could carry significant moral and political weight if they are supported by enough states.
In March 2015, during its 28th Session, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights presented a summary of the Human Rights Council panel discussion on the right to privacy in the digital age (A/HRC/28/39) and the Human Rights Council adopted HRC 28/16, the establishment of a new UN Special Rapporteur on “The Right to Privacy in the Digital Age.” This development is a direct follow-up to the UN General Assembly Resolution 69/166 from December 2014, led by Germany and Brazil, which asked the Council to consider the creation of such a mandate.
In July 2015, at its 29th session, the UNHRC appointed Joseph Cannataci as the first UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Privacy. Cannataci is chair of European Information Policy and Technology Law at the University of Groningen in The Netherlands and Head of the Department of Information Policy & Governance at the Faculty of Media & Knowledge Sciences of the University of Malta.
The 10th Annual IGF Meeting entitled “Evolution of Internet Governance: Empowering Sustainable Development” will take place in João Pessoa, Brazil from November 10-13, 2015. The overarching IGF theme will be supported by eight sub-themes: Cybersecurity and Trust; Internet Economy; Inclusiveness and Diversity; Openness; Enhancing Multistakeholder Cooperation; Internet and Human Rights; Critical Internet Resources; and Emerging Issues. The current and continuously updated schedule can be accessed from the IGF website.
As it approaches its tenth year, the IGF seems to have lost some of its momentum. Host countries for the annual meetings are increasingly difficult to find, and some host countries are known for restrictive approaches to media freedom. Several civil society organizations decided to boycott the 2014 meeting because of these implicit contradictions. At the same time, there are various parallel initiatives that can be seen as competition for the IGF, inter alia the 2012 ITU WCIT, the 2014 NETmundial, or the 2011 Internet Freedom Coalition.
The IGF mandate was initially only five years, but was renewed for another five years in 2010. The 2015 Annual Meeting in Brazil could be the last of a series. What does the future hold for the IGF? Participants at the 2014 Istanbul meeting petitioned to ask the UN General Assembly to prolong the IGF’s mandate for an indefinite term. A decision, however, will only be made during a two-day high-level meeting of the General Assembly in December 2015 after the Brazil IGF in November. In its July 2014 resolution (A/RES/68/302), the 68th UN General Assembly laid out the procedures of the review process, to which representatives of all relevant stakeholders of the World Summit on the Information Society will be invited. The resolution requested the President of the General Assembly to, in June 2015, appoint facilitators to lead an intergovernmental negotiation process in order to create an intergovernmental outcome document for adoption at the high-level meeting of the General Assembly.
The IGF is also backed, among others, by a number of European institutions and organizations. In a joint motion from February 2015, the European Parliament, among other groups, called on the UN General Assembly to renew the mandate of the IGF and strengthen its resources. It also called for the strengthening of the multistakeholder model of internet governance, although the IGF will not adopt formal conclusions.
The European Commission, in February 2014, described a ‘principles based approach’ to the ‘cooperative governance framework,’ including stakeholder engagement to strengthen the IGF as a sustainable model. The Council of Europe Committee of Ministers supports and calls for the UN General Assembly to extend the mandate of the IGF for ten years until 2025. The Committee of Ministers also calls on the multistakeholder community to actively engage in the preparation of the IGF and to provide financial contributions to ensure its long-term financial stability.
ICANN supports the IGF
ICANN’s President and CEO Fadi Chehadé views NETmundial as an extracurricular activity unrelated to ICANN’s core pursuits. During ICANN’s Board Meeting in Singapore, Chehadé said:
There is a sense sometimes that the NETmundial platform replaces the Internet Governance Forum or competes with it. Let me be superbly clear that these are completely complementary activities. They have absolutely no overlap. The IGF is a forum for meetings and for people to get together. NETmundial will not do any more meetings like Sao Paulo. It is not a meeting forum. It is a place, a place where people will come after having discussed things, I hope, at the IGF, and maybe agree to coalesce and start building policy models, solutions, other things that people can voluntarily consume. NETmundial is not a binding body in any way. It is simply a platform, a place to work. We support the IGF. ICANN supports the IGF.
This comes at a time when the stewardship of some ICANN functions, i.e., the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), will be transitioned from the U.S. government to the global multistakeholder community. While IANA functions will continue to be administered by ICANN, oversight will be shifted away from the U.S. Department of Commerce. In spite of an initial September 30, 2015 deadline, the transition is not yet complete. The U.S. National Telecommunications & Information Administration (NTIA) recently announced that IANA’s contract with ICANN was extended for one year to September 2016 and that beyond 2016, there is an option to extend the contract for up to three additional years if necessary.
Internet Governance 2015 and Beyond
Overall, the remainder of 2015 promises to be an important and decisive year for the future of the global approach to internet governance. Once more, Brazil will be at the center of events with the IGF in November 2015. After this meeting, the UN General Assembly Meeting in December will decide about the future of the IGF – with the odds in favor of the mandate’s further expansion.

Keynote Speaker: Andrew Napolitano | Master of Ceremonies: Joe Walsh
On Friday, October 26, 2018, The Heartland Institute will celebrate its 34th Anniversary with a reception and dinner with speakers at The Cotillion, a fine banquet hall in Palatine, Illinois.
This year’s featured speaker will be Judge Andrew P. Napolitano.
The theme of the event is The Constitution and Human Freedom. This topic will echo and exemplify Heartland’s stance on freedom for everyone and an in-depth look at the constitution’s promise to deliver freedom. Which is why we’re thrilled nationally syndicated radio host and AM560’s own Joe Walsh is our master of ceremonies.
Judge Napolitano tenaciously defends the natural law freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution. Famous for his candid remarks, signature wit, and personal anecdotes, Judge Napolitano is the American media’s most outspoken analyst of the legal system, most fervent critic of government intervention into personal lives and commercial transactions and most passionate defender of the Constitution. He also lectures nationally on the rule of law, civil liberties in wartime, and on human freedom.
We will begin the with a VIP reception at 5:30 p.m. with Judge Napolitano, Joe Walsh, and our Liberty Prize Winners Joseph and Diane Carol Bast.
The reception for the general audience begins at 6:00 p.m. Opening remarks begin at 7:00 p.m., dinner is served at 7:15 p.m. and speakers start at 8:00 p.m. The entire program will run until about 9:00 p.m. | law |

If you object to the Oregon Education Association (OEA) overcharging you for workplace representation, you may choose to opt out of those charges.
Each year, the OEA and its affiliates charge teachers about $900 in union dues and fees. However, much of the union’s budget goes towards political activity and other causes that are unrelated to workplace representation.
While state law allows teachers to be required to pay certain union fees, U.S. Supreme Court decisions have long established that unions are not allowed to charge teachers for “the support of an ideological cause [they] may oppose as a condition of holding a job as a public school teacher” (Abood v. Detroit Board of Education 431 U.S. 209 (1977)).
In other words, teachers can only be required to pay for their union’s representational activity, not its political and ideological expenses.
To become an agency fee payer, complete the form below and mail it to the address provided.
As a result of these decisions, any teacher has a constitutional right to become an “agency fee payer” by resigning formal union membership and paying a reduced workplace representation fee, which is less than full union membership dues.
An annual calculation by the OEA determines what portion of its budget is spent on legitimate workplace activity, like negotiating a contract and processing grievances, and what portion is “nonchargeable,” or refundable to agency fee payers. The Supreme Court has required unions to provide this calculation to agency fee payers and explain the purposes for any fees it collects from them (Chicago Teachers Union v. Hudson, 475 U.S. 292, (1986)).
The OEA’s most recent calculation of how much of your dues it spends on legitimate workplace representation and how much it spends on extraneous “nonchargeable” purposes is available here.
Pages three and four reveal:
- 58.55 percent of your total NEA dues are refundable; and
- 28.55 percent of your total OEA dues are refundable.
In addition, some portion of your UniServ and local dues are also spent on activities unrelated to workplace representation and are refundable.
The total refund of overcharges from all levels of the union can range from $250 to $350.
If you object to the OEA’s overcharges and would rather make your own decisions about how your money is spent, then you may become an agency fee payer by requesting to pay the reduced workplace representation fee.
The union will still represent you in collective bargaining, contract management and grievance processing, but you will no longer have to contribute to causes unrelated to workplace representation. | law |

A charge of domestic violence is a serious matter. It can upset your life and cause severe emotional turmoil to yourself and your family. Finding out the truth behind such a charge is important to the outcome of your case. The Law Offices of Christopher Zander & Associates work with investigators and eyewitnesses in order to defend our clients and tell their side of the story. We assert and protect your rights while challenging the allegations against you.
If you have been arrested for domestic violence, it is important to begin defending yourself as soon as possible. To schedule a confidential consultation, contact the Law Offices of Christopher Zander & Associates today.
FIGHTING A CHARGE OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
There are always two sides to any story. Unfortunately, because of political issues that sometimes impact how officials and legislators choose to react to a problem, men and occasionally women, are often treated as if they are presumed guilty in domestic violence cases. That is why our attorneys investigate what happened by talking to eyewitnesses, checking emergency room records, and requesting medical records to see if the alleged victim has a history of psychological problems or drug and alcohol abuse. We also provide a context for what happened, especially in cases where our client acted in self-defense or was also assaulted and battered.
HOW RESTRAINING ORDERS CAN COMPLICATE YOUR LIFE
Many domestic violence victims take out a restraining order against their alleged attacker. If a restraining order is issued against you, attending the hearing to determine if it should be extended and for how long is crucial. At the hearing, you can provide evidence, your own testimony, and witness testimony to prove your case. If a restraining order is issued, you will have to turn in any guns you own, you may have to vacate your house or apartment if you share it with the alleged victim, and additionally may be ordered to avoid all contact with the alleged victim. Furthermore, you may be denied visitation or custody rights of your children.
In many cases, our attorneys can help you fight restraining orders that are intended to punish or complicate the life of an ex-mate or ex-spouse. We have the resources needed to investigate questionable allegations and expose groundless accusations.
EXPERIENCE BREEDS RESULTS
The Law Offices of Christopher Zander & Associates have rightfully earned the reputation of being the toughest, most knowledgeable, and aggressive domestic violence defense attorneys in all of Southern California. Our FIRM handles the most difficult DOMESTIC VIOLENCE cases in the courts of Orange County, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside and San Diego.

On Monday, April 14, 2003, the Indianapolis City Council passed a resolution expressing regret to the management and staff of the Indianapolis Training Center (ITC) for any embarrassment and financial loss resulting from the false allegations against it.
The Council acknowledged the good work that the staff members of the training center have done for Marion County juveniles at no cost to the taxpayers. The resolution also encourages officials to again consider referring troubled juveniles to the training center.
In May 2002, the Indiana Department of Social Services cleared the ITC of all allegations, saying that the charges were false, unsubstantiated, and unfounded. Staff members at the ITC continue to be willing and able to work with families and troubled youth by helping them understand basic Biblical principles of life that are beneficial in resolving personal and interpersonal conflicts.
The Indianapolis Training Center, formerly a Stouffer Hotel, was purchased by the Institute in November of 1992. Former Mayor Stephen Goldsmith invited the Institute to come and work with troubled youth in the city of Indianapolis.
Since opening, the ITC has worked with juvenile offenders from across the United States and has also provided training to thousands of young people and parents in counseling, music, culinary arts, and many other specialized courses. | law |

It brings damage to an individual’s body, car, and mind. Thus, it takes them significant time and effort to recover from the incident.
In such scenarios, it becomes arduous for them to deal with the person responsible for the accident. However, personal injury attorneys Miami FL are here to save the day as these incidents fall under their expertise. The lawyers have in-depth knowledge and understanding of the legal aspects of accidents and their aftermaths. Thus, they can take on the cases and protect their client’s rights. In other words, they can aid in winning the proceedings and getting compensation for all the damages received.
Let us discuss how a car accident lawyer or a personal injury attorney Miami can protect their client’s legal rights.
Once a car accident attorney takes on a particular case, they begin by investigating the details of the car crash or collision. It implies that they gather various types and kinds of evidence. It can consist of witness testimonies, accident reports, medical documents of the victim, and photographs proving the damages to the car. The lawyers may even speak to the police officers who had remained on the site if required.
The injury lawyers Miami do so to prove that the accident resulted from the negligent or intentional actions of the other party. In other words, they try to establish that the clients are faultless. Instead, they were the victims. Generally, car accident attorneys prove so using video footage, eyewitness statements, and various documents showing the adverse effects of the car crash.
Such an approach helps prevent or eliminate scenarios where the victims need to pay or compensate for the received damages. Otherwise, the verdict can infringe on their rights. Thus, the lawyers try to create situations where the perpetrators must compensate for the accident and injuries of the victim.
Hence, car accident attorneys help their clients get an appropriate and fair settlement for their suffering, lost wages, and medical bills. They also do so for a car’s diminished value, Florida after the accident.
Insurance Company Talks
All car accidents remain linked with insurance companies. Thus, the victims need to talk to them and get the appropriate claims for the damages to their cars. However, the process is exceedingly complex. In addition, the lack of knowledge possessed by ordinary people can get them tricked in some cases.
In such instances, a car accident attorney Miami can represent their client and correspond with the insurance companies. It reduces all chances and possibilities of less or unfair insurance payments or other risk factors.
Conventionally, the two parties involved in a car accident aim to settle the case between themselves without the court’s interference. In such cases, the job and role of negotiating and determining the compensation amount generally lie with the car accident attorney.
The settlement may aid in compensating for medical bills, mental suffering, property damage, lost wages, and any future care needs. The lawyer engages in a detailed talk with the other party and discusses the terms and relevant details. They try to turn the session in their favor by presenting the collected evidence and the required areas of reimbursement.
Thus, car accident attorneys strive to prevent scenarios where the victims do not get the appropriate settlement amount they deserve. They negotiate the terms to ensure it. On top of that, these lawyers can protect their clients from debt collectors. The latter may come into the picture owing to the consequences of the car crash damages and injuries. | law |

An attractive transaction offering more short-term purchasing power and a lower debt ratio. It is a response to overindebtedness.
However, this redemption represents a cost that must know how to evaluate, to determine if the operation is winning.
What is a "pool of credits"?
As its name indicates, the grouping of credits consists in gathering several loans in one. Also referred to as "Credit Redemption", "Credit Restructuring" or "Credit Refinancing", this " Credit Transaction is for the repayment of at least two previous receivables, including one outstanding credit", as specified by Article R314-19 of the Consumer Code.
It follows that the credit consolidation can take the form of either a mortgage loan or a consumer credit.
Indeed, it is possible to buy consumer loans (vehicle loan, work, etc.) or mortgages. But it is also possible to carry out a regrouping of credits of different nature. In this case, the new regulation (Lagarde law) provides that if the share of mortgage (s) real estate (s) does not exceed 60% of the new loan, the latter falls under the provisions of consumer credit. Beyond this percentage, it must apply those of real estate loans.
What are the purposes of a credit consolidation?
Before the Lagarde law, the ads around the redemption of credits boasted a decrease in monthly payments up to 60%! Since then, it is forbidden to "imply that the loan improves the borrower's financial situation or budget, leads to an increase in resources, constitutes a substitute for savings" without indicating that this necessarily implies a financial counterpart.
Not all loans can benefit from a credit consolidation. This is the case for regulated loans, Zero PTZ loans, 1% housing or student loans.
The main interest of the redemption of credits is to allow the decrease of the monthly payments and of fact, of the rate of indebtedness . Indeed, the capacity of the borrower could be crossed by an accumulation of credits or following an accident of life generating a loss of resources and difficulties to repay.
Secondly, this operation offers borrowers more monthly purchasing power, a margin of maneuver intended to cover exceptional expenses, lay the foundations for a new project or benefit from so-called "comfort" cash.
In any case, the concept of the total cost of credit before and after the credit consolidation operation is crucial.
Who to contact for the assembly of the file?
Better to be accompanied by a professional, to determine all the ins and outs of such an operation. The use of a broker specializing in repurchase credit is essential in that it will quickly appreciate the feasibility of a file with or without guarantee. | law |

In February 2004 the Government invited the two corporations to commence discussions on a possible merger. In September 2004 the corporations submitted a joint merger report to the Government.
In April 2006 the Government and the MTRCL signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding on the structure and terms for the proposed rail merger.
In June 2007 the Legislative Council passed the Rail Merger Bill, and subsequently in July 2007 the by-laws and regulations applying to the merged rail network were also passed. In August 2007 the Corporation's Managing Board gave its approval to the signing of the rail merger transaction documents. In October 2007, MTRCL's independent shareholders approved the rail merger package at an Extraordinary General Meeting.
On 2 December 2007 the Rail Merger Ordinance came into effect. The Rail Merger Ordinance expressly empowered KCRC to grant a service concession to MTRCL and expanded the scope of MTRCL's franchise to enable it to take up the operation of KCRC's transport services.
The rail merger comprised two key components. The first was a Service Concession Agreement whereby MTRCL was granted the right for an initial period of 50 years (which is extendable) from 2 December 2007 to use KCRC's railway assets to operate the existing KCR railway lines and other transport-related businesses such as bus operations in the North-west Transit Service Area, and upon their completion, the new KCR railway lines then currently under construction. In return, the MTRCL was required to make a fixed annual payment of HK$750 million to KCRC, and after 36 months, an additional variable payment based on a percentage (which is on an increasing scale) of the annual gross revenue in excess of HK$2.5 billion generated from the KCRC railway assets.
The second key component was a Sale and Purchase Agreement, whereby on 2 December 2007 MTRCL purchased at a sum of HK$7.79 billion a number of KCRC properties and property management subsidiaries, and made a further payment of HK$4.25 billion for the Service Concession and the purchase of certain railway assets of KCRC such as stores and spares.
Following the merger of the operations of the rail systems of KCRC and MTRCL, KCRC has become primarily an asset holding corporation under the direction of a Managing Board composed wholly of senior public officials appointed by the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. The Corporation is responsible for monitoring that the MTRCL complies with the terms of the Service Concession Agreement. Its other functions include investment of the reserve funds, servicing the Corporation’s outstanding debts, and managing its subsidiaries, including those involved in the development of the property sites along the West Rail Line on behalf of the Government.
In respect of these West Rail property sites, the KCRC Chief Officer is the Chairman of the managing board of West Rail Property Development Limited (WRPDL) (its shareholders being the Government and KCRC) which is responsible for implementation of the various developments on behalf of the Government, with MTRCL being the development agent for WRPDL. The first of these projects at Tuen Mun Station was completed in 2013. Currently, the site at Pat Heung Maintenance Depot is the only remaining site in study for development.
Since the merger, the Corporation has been served by a very small number of staff, having decided to outsource many of its routine administrative and specialist support functions. The Managing Board is chaired by the Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the Government, and the management is headed by a Chief Officer.
In August 2018, the Government vested the land and interests or other rights in respect of the land for the operation of the Hong Kong Section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link (XRL) and assigned the movable assets of the XRL Hong Kong Section to the Corporation. The Corporation, as the owner of the assets, granted the right to operate the XRL Hong Kong Section to MTRCL for a concession period of 10 years under a Supplemental Service Concession Agreement (SSCA).
In February 2020, the Government vested the land and interests or other rights in respect of the land for the operation of Tuen Ma Line Phase 1 (TML 1) (i.e. the extended section of the previously existing Ma On Shan Railway from Tai Wai to Kai Tak) and assigned the movable assets of the TML1 to the Corporation. The Corporation, as the owner of the assets, granted the right to operate the railway section under TML1 to MTRCL under a SSCA.
In June 2021, the Government vested the land and interests or other rights in respect of the land for the operation of Tuen Ma Line Phase 2 (TML 2) (i.e. the extended section of the the previously existing Ma On Shan Railway from Kai Tak to Hung Hom) and assigned the movable assets of the TML2 to the Corporation. By then, the previously existing West Rail Line and Ma On Shan Railway were integrated as the Tuen Ma Line. The Corporation, as the owner of the assets, granted the right to operate the railway sections under TML1 and TML2 to MTRCL under a SSCA, which superseded the previous one for TML1.
In May 2022, the Government vested the land and interests or other rights in respect of the land for the operation of the cross harbour section of the East Rail Line (EAL) (Hung Hom to Admiralty) and assigned the movable assets of the EAL cross harbour section to the Corporation. By then, the whole Shatin to Central Link (SCL) project was completed. The Corporation, as the owner of the assets, granted the right to operate the SCL including railway section under TML1 and TML2 and EAL cross harbour section to MTRCL under a SSCA, which superseded the previous one for TML1 and TML2. | law |

It was put into force on June 1, 2007 for improving legislative and regulatory framework applicable for chemicals at that time in EU countries. The key goal of REACH is guarantying the high level protection of human health and environment by timely and proper characterization of chemicals properties.
In REACH program the responsibility for management of chemicals risks related to health and environment is laid on different industries. Manufacturers and importers will have to assess the risks related to chemicals, which they produce and sell at the market, and take adequate measures on managing these risks. For assuring of fulfilling the obligations related to produced or imported chemicals in the quantity of 1 ton per year or more (for one physical or legal entity) the manufacturers and importers shall lodge their registration dossier in the European Chemical Agency (ECA) in Helsinki.
In future the Regulations will also provide for replacement of the most dangerous chemicals for their better alternatives, if found.
REACH declares three periods of stepwise implementing the chemical registration application. Depending on production volumes and dangerous properties of substances different periods of registration are to be applied:
* December 1, 2010 – for high volumes (over 1 000 t/a) of chemical products and for less volumes of certain chemicals depending on their hazard to human health and environment.
* June 1, 2013 and June1, 2018 – for less volumes of chemical products (from 1 000 to 100 t/a and from 100 to 1 t/a correspondingly).
To have possibility to use and place chemical products in the markets of the European Union and European Economic Area the manufacturers, importers, users and distributors of chemicals in the EU and EEA territory will have to meet the requirements of REACH Regulations.

A Petition of Orthodox Christians to the Primates of the Ancient Orthodox Churches Advocating the Trial and Removal of the Patriarch of Moscow, Kirill (Gundyayev)
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
On 24 February 2022, without provocation the Russian Federation invaded Ukraine and unleashed a barbaric war in the middle of Europe. Statements and actions by Russia disclosed their intention to remove Ukraine’s government, to destroy Ukraine’s sovereignty and self-defense, and to destroy Ukraine’s culture and people.
The Russian Federation directed its armed forces to commit mass killing of civilians by targeted bombing of civilian areas, including hospitals, schools, and cultural institutions. Russia has directed the torture and the murder of captive civilians, and the systematic torture and rape of Ukrainian women and children. Tens of thousands of Ukrainian civilians have been intentionally killed. Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians have been forcibly relocated to Russia by Russia’s military. Millions of Ukrainians have become refugees, forced to flee their homes.
A coalition of international criminal lawyers has concluded that Russia is committing genocide in Ukraine. The International Criminal Court and other competent courts are outlining charges for numerous war crimes, including genocide. By their nature, war crimes and genocide criminally implicate Russian State officials and Russian Orthodox Church officials who directed or promoted these crimes.
The Russian Orthodox Church is promoting war and is abetting war crimes in Ukraine.
After a few days of guilty silence, the leadership of the Russian Orthodox Church began to justify and bless this war. The Patriarch of Moscow, Kirill (Gundyayev) has attempted in numerous public sermons to present Russia’s criminal invasion as morally justified and necessary. While the orthodox flock in Ukraine is decimated, Patriarch Kirill encourages and blesses the slaughter. Many of Kirill’s underlings have echoed him, presenting the aggressor as victim, and evil as good. The Moscow Patriarch openly aids and abets the atrocities in Ukraine.
Numerous hierarchs and synods have condemned the Russian Federation’s aggression unambiguously. Yet they have said almost nothing about the Russian Orthodox Church providing the ideological platform and public blessing for this criminal undertaking. There has been very little clear public denunciation of this subversion of Christianity from the episcopate of the Orthodox Church. There has been none at all from any synodal body outside Ukraine.
Moreover, a serious accusation of heresy by the Moscow Patriarch has been leveled by respected and responsible theologians who signed 'A Declaration on the “Russian World” (Russkii Mir) Teaching’. Those charges of heresy have not been addressed by the Primates of ancient Orthodox Churches competent to try and depose the accused heretics.
Hundreds of priests of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church signed a petition to the Primates of ancient Orthodox Churches to convene in synod and try Patriarch Kirill for blessing and promoting bloodshed, and for heresy. The Council of Bishops of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine has also appealed to the plenitude of the Orthodox Church to condemn Patriarch Kirill.
To the Primates of the ancient Orthodox Churches,
Your All-Holiness Bartholomew, Archbishop of Constantinople and
Your Beatitude Theodore, Pope and Patriarch of Alexandria and all Africa,
Your Beatitude John, Patriarch of Antioch and all the East,
Your Beatitude Theophilos, Patriarch of the Holy City of Jerusalem and of all Palestine and Israel,
Your Beatitude Chrysostomos, Archbishop of Nova Justiniana and all Cyprus
We the undersigned are Orthodox Christians of all ranks, nations, and jurisdictions. We raise our voice on behalf of the victims of unprovoked Russian aggression against Ukraine. We cry out for the innocent child, for the weak, for the refugee, for the abducted, for the murdered, for the raped women and the raped children, for the brutally tortured. In sacred duty to Christ himself, we urgently appeal to you now, and We affirm that;
1. The Patriarch of Moscow, Kirill (Gundyayev) has argued for, encouraged and blessed the murder of innocents. He is bloodguilty. He should be tried for murder.
2. We add our voice to support those hundreds of Ukrainian priests, and we request that the Primates of the ancient Orthodox Churches hold a canonical trial, and depose Patriarch Kirill of Moscow.
3. We request that the Primates of the ancient Orthodox Churches examine the charges of heresy brought by the authors and signators of the ‘Declaration on the “Russian World” (Russkii Mir) Teaching’.
Any Orthodox Christian in communion with the Eastern Patriarchates may sign this petition on the form below. We especially request that Orthodox laity and clergy, both inside and outside Ukraine, sign the petition with their name and their title, if any. Let us reject complicity by silence! Let our actions be a clear statement of Christian conscience, honoring God above earthly rulers and worldly interests.
by Gregory Adair and Luben Stoilov, parishioners of St. Nicholas Orthodox Church, San Anselmo, California.
Russia states that its aims are genocide.
The Israeli Press called Russia’s stated war aims “fascistic”:
’An Independent Legal Analysis of the Russian Federation’s Breaches of the Genocide Convention in Ukraine and the Duty to Prevent’:
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has been asked by numerous Rome Statute signature states, and by Ukraine, to exercise jurisdiction for war crimes in Ukraine. <https://www.icc-cpi.int/ukraine>, and; <https://www.icc-cpi.int/news/statement-icc-prosecutor-karim-aa-khan-qc-situation-ukraine-receipt-referrals-39-states>
ICC involvement in prosecuting Russian crimes in Ukraine is further described at:
State propaganda agents acquire liability for war crimes. Dr. Steven Minas, a senior research fellow at the Transnational Law Institute of King’s College London writes,
“The words of influential propagandists can have real impact. Recognizing this,
the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights provides: 'Any propaganda for war shall be prohibited by law’.”
The analysis of Human Rights Without Frontiers recognizes the Russian Orthodox Church’s liability in promoting war crimes. <https://hrwf.eu/russia-patriarch-kirills-crucifixion-on-the-cross-will-he-be-the-gravedigger-of- the-orthodox-church/>

They are:
In order for you to take a tax deduction for your federal tax return, the IRS requires that you have an appraisal done which provides you with two values. (1) Fair market value (the value if you were able to sell the property today at its highest and best use); and (2) The value of the property if it were to stay strictly as farm and/or natural lands. The appraisal costs varies depending upon the property; however, the average is about $1,500.The cost of the appraisal is not treated as part of the charitable contribution. However, fees paid to determine the value of the easement donation can be claimed by the donor (under Section 212 of the Internal Revenue Code) to the extent that they are other miscellaneous deductions exceed the 2% gross income limitation. This can help offset the appraisal cost.
If no tax deduction is being sought, you can eliminate this expenditure.
Contribution to the Farm & Natural Lands Trust
In order for the Trust to be an effective steward of the lands that are preserved, we develop a conservation easement agreement and baseline document for each property. At the time that you would authorize us to continue with your easement, we ask for a contribution that will be used to cover the costs associated with this stewardship role. We will request of you a contribution of $500 or more as our costs can reach $4,000 for a typical easement.Part of our stewardship role also includes monitoring the property annually to insure the easement objectives are being met. As time passes, we often must address issues that arise relative to the easement agreement. We ask landowners to help cover these costs by contributing to our Land Stewardship Endowment Fund after the easement agreement is completed and filed. We will recommend a contribution amount based on the size of the property and number of the building envelopes. This contribution can be paid annually over a period of up to 10 years.
One or both of these provisions can be waived at the discretion of the board of directors of the Farm & Natural Lands Trust.
Legal and accounting costs
It is always a good idea to talk to your lawyer and accountant when making a decision such as this. These costs would depend solely on your use of these professionals. | law |

In 1999, Quota International’s First District, which includes all of the clubs in West Virginia as well as several in western Virginia, worked together to make a difference for the people of their region.
Infant hearing screening had just become law in Virginia, but the bordering state of West Virginia had no requirements on the books. So, the West Virginia Quota clubs took the initiative to help change the situation in their state, getting some assistance and encouragement from their Quota sisters across state lines. In an impressive show of unity and purpose, clubs throughout the First District worked together to encourage West Virginia’s lawmakers to mandate the procedure in hospitals.
Quotarians contacted state delegates and senators all over the Mountain State through letters, phone calls, and visits to explain the benefits of infant hearing screening and to advocate passage of a law requiring it. As a final push, the District sponsored a breakfast during the legislative session in Charleston, the capital city, so lawmakers could get facts and discuss the issue.
The result: a rousing success! Infant hearing screening is now required by law for all newborn citizens of West Virginia before they leave the hospital.
But Quota didn’t stop there!
The Quota District created a poster that was distributed to medical facilities in the state to inform patients and medical personnel of the new legislation. Then, the District cooperated with the West Virginia Bureau for Public Welfare to produce an informative magnet about hearing development that bears Quota’s name and has been distributed to families throughout the state.
“It has definitely brought our clubs closer together,” says past District Governor Kelly Palmer, who led the infant hearing screening effort. “The morale of our District is at an all-time high. We feel we contribute to our localities as well as to the people of our state.”
The We Share Foundation is proud to be a part of the work accomplished by the West Virginia members of Quota International!

However, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Products or Services to you at the incorrect (lower) price and if the Product or Service’s correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product or Service at the correct price or cancelling your order.

13.3 This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, whether under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties Act) 1999 or otherwise.
13.4 Each of the paragraphs of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

Basis of contract
1.1 These Conditions apply to the Contract to the exclusion of any other terms that the Customer seeks to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by law, trade custom, practice or course of dealing.
1.2 The Order constitutes an offer by the Customer to purchase the Goods in accordance with these Conditions. The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the terms of the Order are complete and accurate.
1.3 The Order shall be deemed to be accepted on the earlier of (a) the Supplier issuing an invoice for the Order, (b) the Supplier informing the Customer of the estimated delivery date for the Order or (c) the Supplier issuing an order confirmation, at which point the Contract shall come into existence.
2.1 The Goods are described on the Supplier’s website at www.wydaleplastics.co.uk (as amended by written agreement by the parties).
2.2 The Supplier reserves the right to amend the Goods if required by any applicable statutory or regulatory requirement, and the Supplier shall notify the Customer in any such event.
3.1 The Supplier shall ensure that each delivery of the Goods is accompanied by a delivery note that shows the date of the Order, the type and quantity of the Goods, special storage instructions (if any) and, if the Goods are being delivered by instalments, the outstanding balance of Goods remaining to be delivered.
3.2 The parties shall agree the arrangements for delivery of the Goods. Either the Supplier shall deliver the Goods to the location set out in the Order or such other location as the parties may agree (“Customer Delivery Location“) once the Goods are ready for delivery or the Customer shall collect the Goods from the Supplier’s premises at Wydale Plastics, Cathole Bridge Road, Crewkerne. TA18 8RF or such other location as may be advised by the Supplier prior to delivery (“Supplier Delivery Location“) within three Business Days of the Supplier notifying the Customer that the Goods are ready.
3.3 Delivery is completed:
3.3.1 where the Supplier or the Supplier’s carrier, unloads the Goods at the Customer Delivery Location, on the completion of such unloading; or
3.3.2 where the Customer unloads the Goods at the Customer Delivery Location, on the arrival of the vehicle at the Customer Delivery Location; or
3.3.3 where the Customer loads the Goods at the Supplier Delivery Location, on the Supplier making the Goods available for loading; and/or
3.3.4 where the Supplier loads the Goods at the Supplier Delivery Location, on completion of such loading.
3.4 Any dates quoted for delivery are approximate only, and the time of delivery is not of the essence. The Supplier shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the Goods that is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Customer’s failure to provide the Supplier with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Goods.
3.5 If the Supplier fails to deliver the Goods, its liability shall be limited to the costs and expenses incurred by the Customer in obtaining replacement goods of similar description and quality in the cheapest market available, less the price of the Goods. The Supplier shall have no liability for any failure to deliver the Goods to the extent that such failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Customer’s failure to provide the Supplier with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Goods.
3.6 If the Customer fails to take or accept delivery of the Goods then, except where such failure or delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Supplier’s failure to comply with its obligations under the Contract in respect of the Goods:
3.6.1 delivery of the Goods shall be deemed to have been completed at 9:00 am on the third Business Day after the day on which the Supplier notified the Customer that the Goods were ready; and
3.6.2 the Supplier shall store the Goods until delivery takes place and charge the Customer for all related costs and expenses (including insurance).
3.7 If ten Business Days after the day on which the Supplier notified the Customer that the Goods were ready for delivery the Customer has not taken or accepted actual delivery of them, the Supplier may resell or otherwise dispose of part or all of the Goods and, after deducting reasonable storage and selling costs, account to the Customer for any excess over the price of the Goods or charge the Customer for any shortfall below the price of the Goods.
3.8 The Supplier may deliver the Goods by instalments, which shall be invoiced and paid for separately. Each instalment shall constitute a separate contract. Any delay in delivery or defect in an instalment shall not entitle the Customer to cancel any other instalment.
4.1 The Supplier warrants that on delivery, and for a period of 12 months from the date of delivery (“warranty period“),] the Goods shall conform in all material respects with their description and be free from material defects in materials and workmanship.
4.2 The Supplier shall not in any circumstances be liable for any damage or defect to the Goods caused by improper use of the Goods or arise outside its/their normal operation.
4.3 Subject to clause 5.4, if:
4.3.1 the Customer gives notice in writing to the Supplier during the warranty period within a reasonable time of discovery that some or all of the Goods do not comply with the warranty set out in clause 5.1;
4.3.2 the Supplier is given a reasonable opportunity of examining such Goods; and
4.3.3 the Customer (if asked to do so by the Supplier) returns such Goods to the Supplier’s place of business (costs to be agreed),
the Supplier shall, at its option, repair or replace the defective Goods, or refund the price of the defective Goods in full.
4.4 The Supplier shall not be liable for the Goods’ failure to comply with the warranty set out in clause 5.1 if:
4.4.1 on examining such Goods, there is no fault found;
4.4.2 the Customer makes any further use of such Goods after giving notice in accordance with clause 5.2;
4.4.3 the defect arises because the Customer failed to follow the Supplier’s oral or written instructions as to the storage, commissioning, installation, use and maintenance of the Goods or (if there are none) good trade practice regarding the same;
4.4.4 the defect arises as a result of the Supplier following any drawing, design or Specification supplied by the Customer;
4.4.5 the Customer alters or repairs such Goods without the written consent of the Supplier;
4.4.6 the defect arises as a result of fair wear and tear, wilful damage, negligence, or abnormal storage or working conditions; or
4.4.7 the Goods differ from their description as a result of changes made to ensure they comply with applicable statutory or regulatory requirements.
4.5 Except as provided in this 5, the Supplier shall have no liability to the Customer in respect of the Goods’ failure to comply with the warranty set out in clause 5.1.
4.6 All warranties, conditions and other terms implied by statute or common law are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, excluded from the Contract.
4.7 These Conditions shall apply to any repaired or replacement Goods supplied by the Supplier.
Title and risk
5.1 The risk in the Goods shall pass to the Customer on completion of delivery.
5.2 Title to the Goods shall not pass to the Customer until the earlier of:

5.2.2 the Customer resells the Goods, in which case title to the Goods shall pass to the Customer at the time specified in clause 6.4.
5.3 Until title to the Goods has passed to the Customer, the Customer shall:
5.3.1 store the Goods separately from all other goods held by the Customer so that they remain readily identifiable as the Supplier’s property;

5.3.5 give the Supplier such information as the Supplier may reasonably require from time to time relating to:
(a) the Goods; and
(b) the ongoing financial position of the Customer.
5.4 Subject to clause 6.5, the Customer may resell or use the Goods in the ordinary course of its business (but not otherwise) before the Supplier receives payment for the Goods. However, if the Customer resells the Goods before that time:
5.4.1 it does so as principal and not as the Supplier’s agent; and
5.4.2 title to the Goods shall pass from the Supplier to the Customer immediately before the time at which resale by the Customer occurs.
5.5 At any time before title to the Goods passes to the Customer, the Supplier may:
5.5.1 by notice in writing, terminate the Customer’s right under clause 6.4 to resell the Goods or use them in the ordinary course of its business; and
5.5.2 require the Customer to deliver up all Goods in its possession that have not been resold, or irrevocably incorporated into another product and if the Customer fails to do so promptly, enter any premises of the Customer or of any third party where the Goods are stored in order to recover them.
Price and payment
6.1 The price of the Goods shall be the price set out in the Supplier’s price list in force as at the date of delivery.
6.2 The Supplier may, by giving notice to the Customer at any time up to 21 Business Days before delivery, increase the price of the Goods to reflect any increase in the cost of the Goods that is due to:
6.2.1 any factor beyond the Supplier’s control (including foreign exchange fluctuations, increases in taxes and duties, and increases in labour, materials and other manufacturing costs);
6.2.2 any request by the Customer to change the delivery date(s), quantities or types of Goods ordered, or the Specification; or
6.2.3 any delay caused by any instructions of the Customer or failure of the Customer to give the Supplier adequate or accurate information or instructions.
6.3 The price of the Goods:

6.3.2 excludes (save as where otherwise agreed in writing) the costs and charges of packaging, insurance and transport of the Goods, which shall be invoiced to the Customer.
6.4 The Supplier may invoice the Customer for the Goods on or at any time after despatch of the Goods.
6.5 The Customer shall pay each invoice submitted by the Supplier:
6.5.1 within 30 days of the end of the month of the date of the invoice or in accordance with any credit terms agreed by the Supplier and confirmed in writing to the Customer; and
6.5.2 in full and in cleared funds to a bank account nominated in writing by the Supplier, and
time for payment shall be of the essence of the Contract.
6.6 If the Customer fails to make a payment due to the Supplier under the Contract by the due date, then, without limiting the Supplier’s remedies under clause 9, the Customer shall pay interest on the overdue sum from the due date until payment of the overdue sum, whether before or after judgment. Interest under this clause 7.6 will accrue each day at 4% a year above the Bank of England’s base rate from time to time, but at 4% a year for any period when that base rate is below 0%.
6.7 All amounts due under the Contract shall be paid in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).
Limitation of liability
7.1 The limits and exclusions in this clause reflect the insurance cover the Supplier has been able to arrange and the Customer is responsible for making its own arrangements for the insurance of any excess loss.
7.2 The restrictions on liability in this clause 8 apply to every liability arising under or in connection with the Contract including liability in contract, tort (including negligence), misrepresentation, restitution or otherwise.
7.3 Nothing in the Contract limits any liability which cannot legally be limited, including liability for:

7.5 Subject to clause 8.3, the following types of loss are wholly excluded:

8.1.3 the Customer suspends, threatens to suspend, ceases or threatens to cease to carry on all or a substantial part of its business; or
8.1.4 the Customer’s financial position deteriorates so far as to reasonably justify the opinion that its ability to give effect to the terms of the Contract is in jeopardy.
8.2 Without limiting its other rights or remedies, the Supplier may suspend provision of the Goods under the Contract or any other contract between the Customer and the Supplier if the Customer becomes subject to any of the events listed in clause 9.1.2 to clause 9.1.4, or the Supplier reasonably believes that the Customer is about to become subject to any of them, or if the Customer fails to pay any amount due under this Contract on the due date for payment.
8.3 Without limiting its other rights or remedies, the Supplier may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by giving written notice to the Customer if the Customer fails to pay any amount due under the Contract on the due date for payment.
8.4 On termination of the Contract for any reason the Customer shall immediately pay to the Supplier all of the Supplier’s outstanding unpaid invoices and interest and, in respect of Goods supplied but for which no invoice has been submitted, the Supplier shall submit an invoice, which shall be payable by the Customer immediately on receipt.

No variation of this Contract shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the parties (or their authorised representatives).
No failure or delay by a party to exercise any right or remedy provided under the Contract or by law shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of such right or remedy shall prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.
If any provision or part-provision of the Contract is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall be deemed deleted, but that shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of the Contract.

10.6.3 This clause does not apply to the service of any proceedings or other documents in any legal action or, where applicable, any arbitration or other method of dispute resolution.
10.7 Third party rights
Unless it expressly states otherwise, the Contract does not give rise to any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of the Contract.
10.8 Governing law
The Contract, and any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter or formation, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales.
Each party irrevocably agrees that the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with the Contract or its subject matter or formation. | law |

Over the next few months, I am going to attempt to explain the difference between a fixture and a non-fixture and provide alternatives to the Texas’ mechanic’s lien process for securing the goods and services provided on a property.
“Fixtures” means goods that have become so related to particular real property that an interest in them arises under the real property law of the state in which the real property is situated. In other words, Fixtures are generally physically attached to the building. There are numerous examples of this on a construction project – carpet, tile, countertops, bathtubs, … This should not be confused with the term “removable.” See http://www.kmdalegal.com/construction-law/foreclosure-of-your-mechanics-lien/
Likewise, “Non-Fixtures” would be those goods which are made a part of a construction project but not permanently affixed as to become an actual part of the property. For example, furnishings, equipment such as sound systems, tv’s, refrigerators and light fixtures, etc.
You might wonder how this relates to you and how this helps you get paid. I am sure at this point you have either personally been burned or know someone who has been burned by filing a mechanic’s lien on the property only to have your lien “foreclosed out” by the bank leaving your remedies extremely limited. However, in Texas, there are various filings that you can file with the Secretary of State to secure your interest in the fixture or non-fixture you provide to a property. This is important to you because, in some situations, you can have priority over a bank that has provided the construction loan for the property thus securing your rights even through a foreclosure.
Now I want to go over how Security Interests in Non-Fixtures works. The Uniform Commercial Code Section (UCC) is the central filing office for certain financing statements and other documents provided for under the Uniform Commercial Code since 1966. Some of the main documents which are filed are financing statements and certain types of liens. Securing non-fixtures should be done through the filing of a financing statement with the secretary of state. The financing statement should state: the name and mailing address of the debtor; the name and mailing address of the secured party; an indication of the collateral covered. The authenticated security agreement itself may be filed as the financing statement if the parties so desire. “Authenticated” is defined as signed. The financing statement should be filed as soon as possible but certainly not later than 20 days after the first delivery of goods to the person with whom your contract is with.
I know what you are thinking. More paperwork? YES. With our whole country struggling financially, unfortunately, the primary way to protect yourself is through a paper trail. The good news is that a financing statement or security agreement are simple forms that you probably can have drawn up one time through an attorney. This does not have to be complicated but you do have to go through the process of having something customized to your type of business that you can repeatedly use for your various customers and clients.
Next month, I am going to discuss Security Interests in Fixtures and explain how these UCC filings can help you gain priority over other potential claimants | law |

It is an important question, because ensuring that the risks associated with GDPR non-compliance are appropriately controlled, is a corporate governance accountability.
Now if a paradigm could be created that would facilitate the ability of most directors to ask the appropriate questions of management, that would be great. Now the depth of GDPR makes simplifying it a complex matter, but we suggested that management provide feedback to the board along three categories; data subjects, data controllers and data processors – A, B and C in the image respectively. These are the primary subjects that GDPR addresses.
Furthermore, it was suggested that reporting aspects of the GDPR that the organization complies with be contrasted against aspects of the GDPR that the organization does not yet comply with, for each of the three categories A, B and C.
Without releasing board directors of their obligations to be informed about important matters such as GDPR, the hope is that it makes a complex regulatory requirement easier to digest for board directors that might not be as close to the regulation as some other directors may be. Hopefully this makes it easier for the board to pursue various directions of questioning in a structured manner. | law |

In the frame of targeted support by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic, the CTU in Prague offers open access to VR-1 training reactor for the purposes of research, development and innovation.
Open access to VR-1 training reactor means "the opportunity to carry out research, development and innovation activities at the premises of VR-1 reactor utilizing the reactor, its experimental and data processing equipment, adjacent laboratories, professional and technical support for such activities from the reactor staff in the fields of safe operation of nuclear installations, theoretical and experimental reactor and neutron physics, nuclear safety, and nuclear fuel cycle.“
Open access is provided to the extent of decision of Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of Czech Republic on allocation of targeted support. The access is intended for individuals or organisations from the Czech Republic or European Union. The open access allows also carrying out students experimental works, especially, in the frame of their doctoral, master and bachelor theses as well as students research projects.
The operator of the training reactor provides open access to VR-1 reactor to all applicants without bias and with equal chances to access the reactor for all. In case two or more applicants are interested in accessing at exactly the same time schedule, this will be provided to the first come applicant.
The applicant has to apply for access sufficiently in advance (at least 2 month ahead). At the same time as the application requirements on reactor operation, on experimental and data processing equipment, laboratories and the proposal of experiment realisation deadline have to be submitted.
Upon request of a reactor operator, the applicant has to document why, how, and for which purpose he/she wants to utilize the reactor, to enable the reactor personnel to check whether the planned research, development and innovation activities are in accordance with the principles of peaceful utilisation of nuclear energy; whether they are not in conflict with Czech legislation and international conventions which the Czech Republic has to follow in the fields of Safeguards and Additional Protocol (IAEA and Euratom). In case these requirements are not fulfilled, the open access to the reactor will be denied to such a user.
Prior to the beginning of research, development and innovation activities, the agreement has to be made between the reactor operator and the applicant on ways of presenting the outcomes and on the intellectual property rights of the outcomes.

https://unistoten.camp/coastal-gaslink-ordered-to-cease-work-on-unistoten-trapline-due-to-non-compliance-with-permits/ | 2024-03-01T13:43:21 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947475311.93/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301125520-20240301155520-00850.warc.gz | 0.947745 | 1,045 | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-10__0__167500457 | en | An inspection by the Environmental Assessment Office (EAO) has found Coastal GasLink Pipeline Ltd. (CGL) to be in “non compliance” with three conditions of their environmental assessment certificate. The EAO has requested that CGL “immediately cease activities” within the trapline registered to our Hereditary Chief Knedebeas (Warner William) that may adversely affect the trapline’s use.
The BCEAO has found that Coastal GasLink failed to provide the required six months of advance notice for construction activities affecting our trapline, and additionally failed to conduct required site habitat assessments before beginning work.
CGL has been ordered to “not resume activities that may affect” the use of this trapline until June 12, 2019, or until the trapline is no longer in use due to seasonal restrictions.
Thus far, Coastal GasLink has ignored the EAO cease and desist order for Dark House territory. Despite delivery of the stop-work order on Wednesday of this week, CGL contractors continued to block access to our traplines, and were operating bulldozers and excavators within meters of our active traps on Wednesday and Thursday.
EAO’s stop-work order follows the extensive disruption and destruction of Unist’ot’en trapping areas by Coastal GasLink contractors. For weeks, RCMP and Coastal GasLink security personnel have denied our trappers access to their lines, threatened Unist’ot’en Healing Centre residents with arrest, and overseen the leveling of a clearly marked and active trapline in blatant violation of the BC Wildlife Act.
Over the past month CGL has installed five bridges into previously deactivated roadways, effectively ruining sections of our trapline. Our most successful lines have come up empty over the past month, as heavy machinery, traffic, noise, lights, and human presence have encroached on and damaged animal habitats, scaring the animals away.
By bulldozing our most accessible trapline, CGL has forced our trappers to travel greater distances and into harder to access areas. Disturbance of trapping activities has increased our operational costs and reduced our trapping income, such that our trapping activities may not break even this year.
The trapping program is an integral part of Unist’ot’en Healing Center activities as it provides a cultural, land-based activity that allows residents to connect with ancestral knowledge and practice. Through these activities residents acquire skills that establish a sense of personal esteem and mastery, building up their confidence as knowledge keepers and eventually as teachers. Trappers connect with the land, animals, and ancestors in a ceremonial manner that recognizes their place in relation to the natural world. Trapping is a grounding, healing, and sacred practice. CGL has disrupted this vital aspect of Healing Center programming, while our residents have been re-traumatized by police and CGL security as they tend to their traplines.
“Being out here trapping on the territory is healing to me. Its reviving the teaching that I received from my uncle as a kid growing up. Being able to do all of this on my own during my healing journey is more than a blessing. More than gold to me. Because I am able to pass this teaching on to the younger generation,” stated Johnny Morris, a Healing Center resident from the Gidumt’en Clan of the Wet’suwet’en Nation.
CGL has still not obtained consent to conduct any work on our unceded territories. Our biggest concerns about this project are already manifesting themselves in the pre-construction phase, as CGL has demolished archaeological sites, destroyed traplines, destroyed property, and endangered and abused our residents. They continue to use their court injunction as a legal bludgeon to force their way into our territory while violating permits and protocols. Despite this precedent, we expect CGL to be held accountable under Canadian laws and regulations so that our trappers can carry out the rest of the trapping season unmolested.
Unist’ot’en have been trapping on this territory since time immemorial and will continue to do so. Our relationship with the animals on the territory we care for has been ongoing for millenia, and we have no intention of severing these ties. Our Hereditary Chief Knedebeas, who oversees this territory, first started trapping this area as a teenager, and this tradition is kept up today by Unist’ot’en house members, supporters, and those on the territory for healing.
Backed by both Canadian Law and ‘Anuc niwh’it’en (Wet’suwet’en Law), we will ensure that the healing work we are conducting on our traplines can continue unabated, and that CGL will be held accountable to those laws.

Next week, the Federal Communications Commission, led by appointed chairman Ajit Pai, will vote on repealing net neutrality, an Obama-era policy of regulating Internet Service Providers to provide consumers access to all legal content and applications on an equal basis.
The implications of repealing net neutrality go far beyond us as consumers. Now more than ever, it is important to speak up about the importance of protecting net neutrality.
Not only will repealing it affect consumers, but as our school system increasingly grows reliant on technology, it is important to think of how that affects public school budgets.
Leon County Schools pays for internet access to services such as ClassLink, Kahoot, Parent Portal, Blackboard, and many others. Imagine the constraint on the county budget to have to pay for different packages to access these services for the student body population of over 33,000 students.
Net neutrality has sadly become a politicized issue, and the idea of a free and open internet should never be a politicized issue. Setting a rule that every company gets equal internet access doesn’t mean the government is controlling the internet, but rather that large corporations don’t.
Take for example, our website, which doesn’t get nearly the amount of funding a major news source, such as the New York Times would. If net neutrality were repealed, the Times would be able to spend their money to load their content to the internet faster, while we would not be able to.
Protecting the enforcement of net neutrality provides an even playing ground for small businesses to flourish and protects the interests of consumers, not big business. | law |

These pictures, taken on 16th July 2019 were shared with ECNF by a concerned resident who is opposed to Rossendale Borough Council’s plans to remove these fields from the green belt and allow 456 additional homes to be built in Edenfield.
These photographs were sent to ECNF by a concerned resident last week after he spotted the surveyors working on the fields again last week.
The ground is being surveyed for Taylor Wimpey for their proposed housing development on this green belt land. The development is dependent on the reclassification of the land by Rossendale Borough Council and is opposed by ECNF. ECNF is working on an alternative local plan for Edenfield based on more sustainable development.
The planning inspectors have started to post information on the RBC website. This can be found under “Latest News” on the following page: https://www.rossendale.gov.uk/info/210148/local_plan/10629/emerging_local_plan/2
The inspectors have started to request information from RBC. This includes information related to Edenfield (paragraphs 5 and 6 under general of EL1.002a.)
They also say that they will be available for the public examination 2-3 weeks before 22nd September when the planning hearings are due to commence.
The Inspector, the Programme Officer (and, we assume, RBC) will post updates in this section of the website as necessary.
ECNF will be holding a Spring Quiz at the Community Centre on Exchange Street on Saturday 27th April starting at 7.30pm (doors open at 7.00pm).
The entry fee of £8 includes a Meat and Potato Pie supper with mushy peas.
For details, please see the flyer below:
ECNF Spring Quiz
Rossendale Borough Council submitted their Draft Local Plan to the Planning Inspectorate on 25th March 2019. The submitted Plan did contain some changes from the Regulation 19 Plan but none of these were very significant. The submitted Plan, a copy of the plan showing the changes and other submitted documents can be found on the Council’s website – follow the link:
The Planning Inspectorate will appoint an Inspector who will undertake an independent examination of the Plan which will include an examination in public. Information on the examination including the timing of the public examination can be found by following the link below:
Draft minutes from the ECNF AGM held on 26th March 2019.

Forum meeting 14-8-18 minutes
Many Thanks to all those who have donated to our village wide appeal launched in October 2018 for funds to help with the costs of continuing to challenge Rossendale Council’s housing proposals for Edenfield. The potential effect of these proposals is to allow 400+ houses to be built on the land between Market Street and the A56 bypass. The next stage of the process is for the Council to submit their proposals to an independent Planning Inspector. The Inspector’s consideration of these proposals will include an “Examination in Public” which is likely to be in June 2019.
The appeal for funds, including unspent donations/other funds already held at the start of the appeal has, to the end of February 2019, generated about 50% of the target sought.
Further funds are therefore still needed and, if you wish to help, donations can be made in any of the following ways;-
- Cheque made payable to “Edenfield Community Neighbourhood Forum” delivered/sent to the Treasurer at 123, Market Street, Edenfield, BL0 0JJ.
- Payment direct to the Edenfield Community Neighbourhood Forum account at Nat West Bank Sort Code 01-01-42 Account 26141914.
- Monthly Standing Order of say £7 to £13 paid to the account as above over a fixed period of say 6 to 12 months.
Note that in the unlikely event that all funds raised are not spent on representation before the Planning Inspector any surplus will be used to support the production/development of the Edenfield Neighbourhood Plan being produced by ECNF in accordance with the provisions of the Localism Act 2011 and which will be the subject of a public consultation and a local referendum in the near future. | law |

The umpires shall be the sole judges of fair and unfair play.
2.7 Fitness for play
2.7.1It is solely for the umpires together to decide whether either conditions of ground, weather or light or exceptional circumstances mean that it would be dangerous or unreasonable for play to take place.
Conditions shall not be regarded as either dangerous or unreasonable merely because they are not ideal.
The fact that the grass and the ball are wet does not warrant the ground conditions being regarded as unreasonable or dangerous.
2.7.2Conditions shall be regarded as dangerous if there is actual and foreseeable risk to the safety of any player or umpire.
2.7.3Conditions shall be regarded as unreasonable if, although posing no risk to safety, it would not be sensible for play to proceed.
2.7.4If the umpires consider the ground is so wet or slippery as to deprive the bowler of a reasonable foothold, the fielders of the power of free movement, or the batter of the ability to play their strokes or to run between the wickets, then these conditions shall be regarded as so bad that it would be dangerous and unreasonable for play to take place.
2.8 Suspension of play in dangerous or unreasonable circumstances
2.8.1All references to ground include the pitch. See Law 6.1 (Area of pitch).
2.8.2The Umpires shall immediately suspend play, or not allow play to start or to recommence, if either umpire considers that the conditions of ground, weather or light, or any other circumstances are either dangerous or unreasonable.
2.8.3When there is a suspension of play it is the responsibility of the umpires to monitor conditions. They shall make inspections as often as appropriate, unaccompanied by any players or officials. Immediately the umpires together agree that the conditions are no longer dangerous or unreasonable they shall call upon the players to resume play.
2.9 Position of umpires
The umpires shall stand where they can best see any act upon which their decision may be required.
Subject to this over-riding consideration, the bowler’s end umpire shall stand in a position so as not to interfere with either the bowler’s run-up or the striker’s view.
The striker’s end umpire may elect to stand on the off side instead of the on side of the pitch, provided he/she informs the captain of the fielding side, the striker and the other umpire.
2.10 Umpires changing ends
The umpires shall change ends after each side has had one completed innings. See Law 13.3 (Completed innings).

Where there is disagreement or dispute about any matter, the umpires together shall make the final decision. See also Law 31.6 (Consultation by umpires).

Consultation between umpires and scorers on doubtful points is essential. The umpires shall, throughout the match, satisfy themselves as to the correctness of the number of runs scored, the wickets that have fallen and, where appropriate, the number of overs bowled. They shall agree these with the scorers at least at every interval, other than a drinks interval, and at the conclusion of the match. See Laws 3.2 (Correctness of scores), 16.8 (Correctness of result) and 16.10 (Result not to be changed).

If you have recently had valuable assets passed down to you, you might be wondering what to do with them. A few examples include bank accounts, retirement accounts, and property. If you are not interested in living in the property, you might want to sell it. Unfortunately, selling inherited property is not necessarily a straightforward process. There are several important points you need to keep in mind. What do you need to do if you are interested in selling inherited property? Take a look at the most important steps below.
Receiving the Inherited Property
First, the property has to be transferred to your name. Inheriting property from a deceased person’s estate is a legal process. If there is a valid will, then many of the legal steps can be skipped, which means you can save money. Many estates end up in the probate process. This controls how the assets are distributed and ensures that the wishes of the person who has passed away are carried out. Every state has its own laws when it comes to the probate process, so you need to work with a professional who can walk with you down this road.
Understanding Different Ownership Options
There are several different ownership options. For example, this might be a situation where you are the only person whose name ends up on the property. If that is the case, then the process is much more straightforward. On the other hand, if the property is divided between multiple heirs, everyone has a piece of the property. This means that it can be much more complicated to get everyone to agree on what should be done with the property. Again, this is a situation where it is important to work with a professional who can help you. That way, you can minimize expenses and make sure all taxes are paid. A professional can also help you minimize your tax liability.
As the will is carried out, an executor will be responsible for distributing the property. If all of the heirs agree on what to do with the property, then the executor will get their permission to go through the selling process. If the heirs cannot agree on what to do with the property, then there is a chance that the issue could end up in court. This will only complicate the process, and it could make everything much more expensive. In some situations, a mediator or a family attorney may have to get involved to help in the negotiation process. Disputes are not uncommon, but they can be minimized if you work with a professional.
Maximize the Value of the Property
Once the property is put up for sale, it is important to maximize its value. You have probably already spent enough time and money going through the paperwork, so you might be looking for a way to offload the property as quickly as possible. Instead of hiring a real estate agent to put the house on the market, you should try to find a cash offer for the house. That way, you can get to the closing table as quickly as possible, you don’t have to worry about being in the local area for multiple showings, and you can avoid closing expenses that will otherwise eat away at the value of the property. If you have inherited property that you want to sell for cash, it would be our pleasure to take it off your hands.

The Springfield Three refers to the unsolved case of the disappearance of three women from Springfield, Missouri, USA, in June 1992. The three women were Sherrill Levitt, a 47-year-old single mother; her 19-year-old daughter, Suzie Streeter; and Suzie's 18-year-old friend, Stacy McCall. The case has remained unsolved for over three decades, despite extensive investigations by law enforcement agencies and numerous leads and tips from the public.
On June 6, 1992, Sherrill Levitt had hosted a graduation party for her daughter, Suzie Streeter, at their home on East Delmar Street. Stacy McCall was also at the party, and the three women had planned to spend the night together at Levitt's home. However, when friends and family members went to check on them the following morning, they discovered that the three women were missing.
There were no signs of forced entry, and everything in the house appeared to be in order except for a broken porch light. The women's purses, keys, and personal belongings were left behind, as well as a graduation present from Suzie's boyfriend, which had been left unopened on the bed. The only thing that appeared to be missing was the three women themselves.
Law enforcement agencies launched an intensive investigation, which included searches of the surrounding area, interviews with friends and family members, and even the use of psychics. However, despite numerous leads and tips, no solid evidence was found, and the case remains unsolved to this day.
Over the years, several theories have been proposed, including the possibility that the women were abducted by someone they knew, or that they were victims of a serial killer. Some people have suggested that the women may have been involved in illegal activities or that they disappeared voluntarily, but there is no concrete evidence to support these theories.
The case has received widespread media attention over the years, and the families of the three women continue to search for answers. In 2021, the Springfield Police Department announced that they had received new leads in the case and were actively pursuing new leads. However, no arrests have been made, and the fate of the Springfield Three remains a mystery. In this episode, we explore the details of the case, including the events leading up to their disappearance, the investigation that followed, and the theories that have been proposed over the years. We'll examine the evidence that was uncovered, the potential suspects who have been named, and the challenges that law enforcement agencies have faced in their efforts to solve the case.
We'll also hear from family members and experts in the field of criminal investigation, who offer their perspectives on the case and share their insights into what may have happened to the three women.
Join us as we delve into the perplexing case of the Springfield Three, and try to shed new light on this enduring mystery. | law |
https://hometowntohollywood.com/legal-18-vs-emancipation-for-the-child-actor/ | 2023-06-03T17:22:01 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-23/segments/1685224649302.35/warc/CC-MAIN-20230603165228-20230603195228-00289.warc.gz | 0.958929 | 874 | CC-MAIN-2023-23 | webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-23__0__180001265 | en | There is so much confusion over these two, even on sets, and they are entirely distinct. Industry people who really should know better use the terms interchangeably, generally saying, “emancipated” when they mean “legal 18.” Here are the basic differences spelled out.
Legal 18: (passed the CHSPE)
- An adult in the eyes of the industry re: work hours and education
- No longer required to attend high school or have a set teacher
- No work permit required
- Still a minor in the eyes of the law
- Cannot sign legal contracts
- Earnings subject to Coogan law
Emancipated: (legally independent from parents)
- An adult in the eyes of the law except for education and work hours
- Still required to be enrolled in school or have a set teacher
- Work permit still required
- Still under minor work guidelines for hours
- Can sign legal contracts
- Earnings not subject to Coogan law/ Coogan funds available
There is an excellent chart at the BizParentz Foundation online (BizParentz.org) that spells out these and other related distinctions (click the icon at the top left of the linked page). I found it really helpful to have a few extra copies printed out to give to set PA’s (Production Assistants) who were frequently confused about what my daughter’s “legal 18” status actually meant.
It’s conventional wisdom that emancipation is a choice of genuinely last resort
Typically, emancipation is used when finances have been so mismanaged that the Coogan funds must be tapped to pay back taxes, or when the relationship between parents and child has become so strained that the child wishes to be legally freed of them. Other than filing for emancipation with a court of law, marriage and joining the armed forces are the only other ways to become legally independent of one’s parents before the age of 18.
Emancipation does not solve the educational requirement issue, nor the work permit issue. And it leaves young people vulnerable to exploitation since they can sign legally binding contracts that they may not fully understand. Emancipation generally means that something has gone wrong. Try to avoid going there.
The CHSPE and Work Permits
The subject of work permits—how they work, and how to get one– was largely covered in a previous blog post, Does my Child Actor Need a Work Permit? They Haven’t Even Gotten An Audition Yet! But here you can see how entwined with the subject of school they are.
If your child passes the CHSPE, they no longer need a work permit. But work permits can be great leverage to have your kid keep their grades up if that is an issue. And their very existence serves as a reminder that children are children, and if they are working during hours that they should normally be in school, that there are laws about how many hours are allowed, and how much time should be set aside for education. Sidestepping those rules is an option that should not be taken lightly.
Was this helpful? Are you clear about the difference between passing the CHSPE and Emancipation now? Or do you still have questions? Shoot me an email at [email protected] !
My book, The Hollywood Parents Guide, available on Amazon contains everything I wish I’d known when Dove and I started this journey, and will save you untold amounts of time, money, and stress. Full of information you MUST know, it also features stories from parents of other kids who’ve made it!
Or book an hour consulting with me to come up with an individualized plan that takes your own unique needs into account. For about the cost of an hour with a professional acting coach, you can get your questions answered and a road map to help you move forward toward your dream.
If your young actor is 12 or older, they will enjoy reading my second book, Young Hollywood Actors, which shares stories and advice from some of their favorite performers.

Legal firms are increasingly turning towards client portals as a powerful tool to streamline their operations and enhance client interactions. A client portal is a secure web-based platform that provides clients with personalised access to their case information, documents, and communication channels with their legal representatives. This article explores how they have become crucial technology in modern legal firms and their significant benefits for both clients and legal practitioners.
Improved Client Communication and Engagement
Client portals act as a central hub where clients can effortlessly communicate with their legal team. Instead of traditional phone calls and email exchanges, clients can immediately access real-time information about their legal matters and related documents, have a dashboard overview of their portfolio, access value-added information provided by the firm, ask questions, and instruct on new matters. They are essentially a one-stop shop for doing business with the firm electronically. This level of communication fosters trust and transparency between legal professionals and their clients, leading to improved client satisfaction and loyalty.
Efficient Document Management
In the legal profession, an enormous volume of documents are generated and exchanged. Customer portals offer a seamless approach to document management by allowing clients to upload, download, and review legal documents conveniently. This reduces the reliance on traditional communication services and expedites the document-sharing process, ultimately saving time and resources for both parties. Client portals remove issues like couriering of USBs or data and the need for separate file sharing sites.
24/7 Accessibility and Convenience
With a portal, clients are no longer constrained by office hours or geographic boundaries. They can access their case information and relevant documents at any time, from anywhere with an internet connection. This level of accessibility ensures convenience for clients, particularly those with busy schedules or international clients in different time zones.
Streamlined Case Tracking
A portal also offers clients real-time visibility into the progress of their cases. They can view updates, court dates, and other vital information without having to repeatedly contact their legal representatives. This transparency fosters a sense of involvement and empowerment for clients, leading to increased satisfaction with the legal services provided.
Time and Cost Efficiency
By reducing the need for physical paperwork and face-to-face meetings, client portals contribute to significant time and cost savings for both clients and legal firms. Administrative tasks, such reporting and document handling can be streamlined, allowing legal professionals to focus more on complex legal matters and providing high-quality legal counsel.
Dashboards allow the client to better understand their commercial relationship with the firm and easily keep track of current activity. This transparency builds trust and confidence in the overall relationship. It also has the added benefit of potentially facilitating faster payment of invoices.
In today's competitive legal landscape, adopting client portals sets legal firms apart from their peers. Clients are more likely to choose a firm that embraces modern technology and offers streamlined processes to facilitate their legal journey. A client portal can be a unique selling point for attracting new clients and retaining existing ones.
Access to Additional Resources
Beyond case-specific information, client portals can also serve as a knowledge repository for clients, providing access to legal resources, FAQs, and educational content. This self-service approach empowers clients to find answers to common questions and gain a deeper understanding of legal processes.
The implementation of client portals in legal firms marks a significant shift towards more efficient, client-centric, and technologically advanced practices. By leveraging this essential technology, legal firms can improve client communication, data security and case management while increasing their competitive edge in the industry. As the legal landscape continues to evolve, embracing client portals becomes crucial for any legal firm aiming to thrive in the digital age and deliver exceptional client experiences. | law |

'Just Mercy is as deeply moving, poignant and powerful a book as has been, and maybe ever can be, written about the death penalty, and the failures of the administration of criminal justice ... [It] will make you gasp at the inhumanity of humankind.'
Raymond Bonner, Financial Times
'Bryan Stevenson is one of my personal heroes, perhaps the most inspiring and influential crusader for justice alive today, and Just Mercy is extraordinary. The stories told within these pages hold the potential to transform what we think we mean when we talk about justice.'
Michelle Alexander, author of The New Jim Crow
‘This is so important. Stevenson explains how deep-rooted racism is, while giving hope that it doesn’t have to exist.’
'Our American criminal justice system has become an instrument of evil. Bryan Stevenson has labored long and hard, and with great skill and temperate passion, to set things right. Words such as important and compelling may have lost their force through overuse, but reading this book will restore their meaning, along with one's hopes for humanity.'
Tracy Kidder, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Mountains Beyond Mountains
'Powerful ... This book will shock, anger and inspire you.'
Sunday Independent (Ireland)
'Unfairness in the justice system is a major theme of our age ... This book brings new life to the story by placing it in two affecting contexts: Stevenson's life work and the deep strain of racial injustice in American life ... You don't have to read too long to start cheering for this man. Against tremendous odds, Stevenson has worked to free scores of people from wrongful or excessive punishment, arguing five times before the Supreme Court ... The book extols not his nobility, but that of the cause, and reads like a call to action for all that remains to be done ... The message of the book, hammered home by dramatic examples of one man's refusal to sit quietly and countenance horror, is that evil can be overcome, a difference can be made. Just Mercy will make you upset and it will make you hopeful ... Bryan Stevenson has been angry about [the criminal justice system] for years, and we are all the better for it.'
New York Times
'After the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., I wrote a couple of columns entitled When Whites Just Don’t Get It. The reaction to those columns — sometimes bewildered, resentful or unprintable — suggests to me that many whites in America don’t understand the depths of racial inequity lingering in this country. This inequity is embedded in our law enforcement and criminal justice system, and that is why Bryan Stevenson may, indeed, be America's Mandela ... Stevenson, 54, grew up in a poor black neighborhood in Delaware and ended up at Harvard Law School. He started the Equal Justice Initiative, based in Montgomery, Ala., to challenge bias and represent the voiceless. It's a tale he recounts in a searing, moving and infuriating memoir that is scheduled to be published later this month, Just Mercy.'
Nick Kristof, New York Times
'Stevenson's contributions to social justice have been remarkable. But his efforts, on top of his continuing legal practice, to provide this inside glimpse of the criminal justice system are priceless.'
The Seattle Times
'Not since Atticus Finch has a fearless and committed lawyer made such a difference in the American South. Though larger than life, Atticus exists only in fiction. Bryan Stevenson, however, is very much alive and doing God’s work fighting for the poor, the oppressed, the voiceless, the vulnerable, the outcast, and those with no hope. Just Mercy is his inspiring and powerful story.'
New York Times '100 Notable Books of 2014'
'Stevenson reveals how much of a difference believing in someone and fighting their cause can make. An incredible story ... may help fuel the fire on your own journey.'
‘The compelling story of the legal practice he [Stevenson] founded to protect the rights of people on the margins of American society … Emotionally profound, necessary reading.’ STARRED REVIEW
‘Stevenson is not only a great lawyer, he’s also a gifted writer and storyteller. His memoir should find an avid audience among players in the legal system — jurists, prosecutors, defence lawyers, legislators, academics, journalists — and especially anyone contemplating a career in criminal justice.’
The Washington Post
‘This powerful book is a damning indictment of the US “justice” system, which has the world’s highest rate of incarceration … A gifted narrator as well as a great lawyer, from his long dedication to helping the poor to achieve justice and mercy, he has learned that “each of us is more than the worst thing we’ve ever done.’
The Irish Times
‘[A] passionate rallying cry for people, especially those in law enforcement, to employ more just mercy in dealing with offenders … A must-read for anyone in the field of criminal justice and for fans of true crime.’
‘A passionate account of the ways our nation thwarts justice and inhumanely punishes the poor and disadvantaged.’ STARRED REVIEW | law |

Acceptance of Contract; Orders: These Standard Terms and Conditions of Purchase (these “Terms”) govern the relationship between the Sport Group Holding entity (“Buyer”) that purchases goods or services (“Goods” or “Services”) from the seller of such Goods or Services (“Seller”). To form a legally binding agreement, Buyer shall issue a written order to Seller (“Order”) with an order number for the Goods and Services unless another process is agreed (e.g. electronic data interchange (EDI), vendor-managed inventory (VMI) or consignment stock). Seller agrees to be bound by these Terms when it signs and returns an acknowledgement copy of the Order, indicates its acceptance of the Order in writing, or delivers any of the ordered Goods to Buyer or renders any of the ordered Services. The Order shall be subject solely to these Terms; any additional or different terms proposed by the Seller are rejected unless expressly accepted in writing by an authorized representative of Buyer. These Terms together with the Order and any specifications, drawings, data, and other documents attached to the Order or incorporated into the Order by reference constitutes the entire agreement between Buyer and Seller (this “Agreement”). No modification of this Agreement shall be binding upon Buyer unless in writing and signed by Buyer’s authorized representatives.
2. Prices; Invoices: Goods and/or Services shall be provided at the prices set forth in the Order. Prices in the Order may not be increased without Buyer’s written consent. Each invoice shall contain the following information: Order number, date, order line item, material number, description of items, quantities, unit prices, and any other information specified elsewhere herein. Unless otherwise specified in the Order, the prices set forth in the Order include all applicable federal, state, and local taxes, customs or duties. All such taxes shall be stated separately on Seller’s invoice. At all times, Seller warrants that the prices set forth in the Order are no less favorable than those currently extended to any other customer for the same or similar goods in equal or less quantities. Seller further warrants that the prices charged to Buyer are in compliance with all applicable government laws, rules, and regulations.
3. Payment: Payments shall be made within Terms as listed on the purchase orders, Standard terms are 2% 30, Net 45 or Net 45 days of the date of delivery. All payments shall be made U.S. dollars. Buyer may at any time setoff any amount owed by Seller or any of its affiliated companies to Buyer.
4. Changes: Buyer reserves the right at any time to change any of the following provided that any change must be submitted in writing: (a) specifications, drawings, and data for items manufactured to specifications provided by Buyer or which are otherwise specially designed for Buyer; (b) methods of shipment or packing; (c) place, time or manner of delivery; and (d) quantities. If any such change causes an increase or decrease in the cost of, or the time required for performance of the Agreement, an equitable adjustment shall be made in the Agreement price, delivery schedule, or both. Any claim by Seller for adjustment under this clause must be submitted no later than ten (10) days after the change is made and approved by the Buyer in writing before the Seller proceeds with such change. Buyer shall not be liable for any price increases for work performed prior to a written modification indicating the price change signed by Buyer. IN NO EVENT SHALL BUYER BE LIABLE FOR ANTICIPATORY PROFITS OR FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. BUYER’S LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO AN ORDER, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE PRICE ALLOCABLE TO THE GOODS PURCHASED UNDER SUCH ORDER.
5. Delivery: Time is of the essence. Unless otherwise specifically provided on the face of the Order, all Goods shall be delivered DDP (Incoterms 2020) to the delivery address stated by Buyer. Buyer shall be entitled to choose the carrier and the mode of transport. Seller shall bear all risk of loss, damage, or destruction to the Goods until final acceptance by Buyer at destination. Each delivery shall be accompanied by packing or delivery notes specifying the contents and the necessary order details (order number, date of order, order line item, material number, quantity). Title to the Goods shall pass to Buyer upon delivery. If ordered Goods and Services are not provided in the quantities and at the time specified, Seller shall have a five (5) day period to correct any deficiency. If not corrected, Buyer reserves the right, without liability, and in addition to other rights and remedies provided under this Agreement or applicable law, to take the following actions or any combination thereof: (a) direct expedited shipping of Goods (the difference in cost between the expedited shipping and standard shipping costs to be paid by Seller), or (b) terminate this Agreement by notice effective when received by Seller as to all or any specified Goods not yet shipped or Services not yet rendered with Seller to refund payments Buyer has made, if any, for such Goods or Services, or (c) to purchase substitute goods or services elsewhere and charge Seller for the difference between the cost of substitute goods and the sales price. Seller shall be liable for excess transportation charges, delays or claims resulting from Seller’s deviation from Buyer’s shipping instructions. Buyer will have no liability to pay for Goods delivered to Buyer which exceed quantities specified in the Order and delivery schedules. Buyer may at its option retain such Goods and pay for them at the unit price or reject and return such Goods at Seller’s expense, including transportation charges both ways. Buyer will not be liable for any material or production cost incurred in excess of the amount or in advance of the time necessary to meet Buyer’s delivery schedules.
6. Inspection and Acceptance: Receipt or payment for any Goods under this Agreement shall not constitute acceptance thereof. All Goods or Services purchased hereunder are subject to inspection by Buyer either before or after payment. Buyer’s count of Goods shall be conclusive. Buyer reserves the right to reject Goods or Services which do not comply with the Order including instructions, specifications, drawings, and data or Seller’s warranties (expressed or implied). Rejected Goods will be returned to Seller for full credit or replacement at Buyer’s sole option and at Seller’s risk and expense, including all transportation charges. No replacement of rejected Goods shall be made unless agreed to by Buyer in writing. Acceptance of any part of the Goods shall not bind Buyer to accept future shipments, nor deprive it of the right to return nonconforming Goods already accepted. Acceptance of all or any part of the Goods shall not waive Buyer’s right to cancel or return all or any portion of the Goods because of failure to conform to this Agreement, or by reason of defects, latent or patent, or other breach of warranty, or to make any claim for damages, including manufacturing costs, damage to Goods caused by improper boxing, crating or packing and loss of profits or other damages incurred by the Buyer. Such rights shall be in addition to any other remedies provided by law.
7. Force Majeure: Neither party shall be liable for delays or defaults due to causes solely beyond its control and without its fault or negligence, including but not limited to fires, floods, and Acts of God or government, provided however, that as soon as Seller has reason to believe that Goods or Services will not be delivered when scheduled, written notice setting forth the cause of the anticipated delay must be given immediately to Buyer.
8. Packing, Drayage and Containers: No charges for packing, drayage or containers will be allowed unless specified on the face of the Order, or specifically listed as an additional and separate charge which is agreed to in advance in writing by Buyer. Seller shall be liable for damage to Goods caused by improper boxing, crating or packaging. Packaging requiring a deposit may be returned for full credit at Buyer’s option.
9. Seller’s Warranties: Seller hereby represents and warrants that: (a) all Goods and Services provided hereunder shall be new at the time of delivery, of merchantable quality and fit for Buyer’s purposes, (b) all Goods and Services shall conform with the Order and all descriptions and specifications, (c) all Goods and Services furnished hereunder shall conform to all representations, affirmations, promises, samples or models forming the basis of this Agreement, (d) all Services performed for or on behalf of the Buyer will be performed in a competent, workmanlike manner and shall be free from faults and defects, (e) all Goods shall be free of defects in design, materials or workmanship, (f) Seller has conveyed good title to the Goods to Buyer, free and clear of any and all liens, encumbrances or other charges of any kind; and (g) the country of origin is correctly stated. Seller agrees that, to the extent applicable, these warranties shall survive for a period of minimum one (1) year from acceptance of the Goods and Services and are in addition to any warranties of additional scope given by Seller to Buyer and all warranties provided by law. In the event of any breach of warranty, Buyer may invoke any of the following rights and remedies or a combination thereof, as well as any other remedies provided by law: (i) require Seller to repair or replace the Goods (at Buyer’s option) so that they conform to Seller’s warranties, (ii) repair the Goods or have them repaired by a third party so that they conform to the warranties at Seller’s expense; or (iii) return the Goods to Seller for a full refund of the purchase price and any transportation or other incidental charges incurred by Buyer.
10. Property of Buyer: Unless otherwise provided in the Order or agreed to in writing, Buyer’s property furnished to or made available to Seller, including but not limited to all tooling, tools, equipment and material and any replacement thereof, shall remain the sole property of Buyer. Such property, other than materials, shall not be modified without the written consent of the Buyer. Buyer’s property shall be plainly marked or otherwise adequately identified by Seller as the property of Buyer and shall be safely stored separately and apart from Seller’s property. Seller shall not use such property except for performance of work hereunder or as authorized in writing by Buyer. Such property while in Seller’s possession or control shall be kept in good condition, shall be held at Seller’s risk, and shall be kept insured against damage or loss by Seller, at its expense, in an amount equal to the replacement cost, with loss payable to Buyer. To the extent such property is not material consumed in the performance of the Order, it shall be subject to inspection and removal by Buyer at any time and Buyer shall have a right of entry for such purposes without liability to Seller. When directed by Buyer, Seller shall disclose the location of such property and/or prepare it for shipment and ship it to Buyer in as good condition as originally received by Seller; reasonable wear and tear is accepted.
11. Special Tooling: If the price stated on the face of the Order includes special dyes, jigs, tools, and/or patterns used in the manufacture of the Goods ordered hereunder, then such special dyes, jigs, tools or patterns shall be and become the property of Buyer. No dyes, jigs, tools, patterns, drawings, or specifications supplied to Seller by, or otherwise belonging to Buyer shall be used in the production, manufacturer design of any products other than those called for by the Order, except with the written consent of Buyer. Upon termination of the
Order, such dyes, jigs, tools patterns, drawings or specifications belonging to Buyer shall be disposed of as directed by Buyer. All such dyes, jigs, tools, patterns, drawings, or specifications shall be fully insured by Seller against loss by fire and other perils covered in a standard extended coverage endorsement while in Seller’s possession.
12. Confidential Information and Proprietary Rights: The terms of the Order (including pricing), together with all technical information in the nature of designs, blueprints, specifications, engineering data for production or product know-how, which is supplied to the Seller by the Buyer or by third parties on behalf of Buyer to facilitate or assist in the performance of this Agreement, shall remain the sole and exclusive property of Buyer and, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Buyer, shall be considered Buyer’s “Confidential Information” and kept confidential by the Seller. Seller may only use Buyer’s Confidential Information for the express purpose of performing this Agreement for Buyer. Seller will use and cause its employees and agents to use extreme caution not to disclose any Confidential Information of Buyer, either directly or by incorporation of such information in, or its use in, manufacturing products for others. Upon completion of the Order or at any other time upon request, all documents or other materials containing such Confidential Information shall be returned to Buyer or shall be destroyed. Seller may not disclose its business relationship with Buyer or any Buyer Confidential Information without Buyer’s prior written consent. Additionally, Seller hereby transfers and irrevocably assigns to Buyer all rights in and to any invention, improvement or discovery (whether or not patentable), conceived or first reduced to practice in the performance of this Agreement by any employee of the Seller or other person working under Seller’s direction. Upon completion of performance of this Agreement, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a complete copy of the documentation relating to any such invention, improvement or discovery.
13. Indemnification: Seller shall, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, its affiliates, and its and their officers, directors, employees, agents, customers and assigns, from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising from: (a) any products liability claims relating to Goods and Services supplied pursuant to this Agreement; (b) failure of such Goods or Services to conform to applicable safety standards, warranties, specifications or requirements; and (c) infringement by such Goods or Services of any patent, copyright or other intellectual property or proprietary right of a third party.
14. Insurance: Seller shall maintain in force adequate levels of insurance from any losses arising out of this Agreement including, without limitation, Commercial General Liability Insurance with policy limits of at least $2,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 annual aggregate. Further, if Seller’s services are of a professional nature, Seller shall maintain professional liability insurance with policy limits of not less than $2,000,000 per claim and $2,000,000 annual aggregate. Buyer, its parent, subsidiary and affiliated companies, and any of their directors, officers, employees or representatives shall be named as additional insureds on all such policies (except for worker’s compensation, and, if applicable, professional liability) with a corresponding waiver of rights of subrogation against any additional insureds. All such policies shall be issued by insurance companies licensed in the state in which services are to be performed and that maintain an AM Best rating of A -VIII or better. Seller shall be fully responsible for the payment of any deductible or self-insured retention, which shall not exceed $25,000 in any policy without Buyer’s written permission. Seller shall furnish Buyer with certificates of insurance demonstrating that the above required (or better) policies are in place and, where applicable, confirming additional insured status and waivers of subrogation. Seller shall furnish Buyer with copies of the policies upon Buyer’s written request. Compliance by Seller with insurance requirements does not in any way affect Seller’s indemnification obligations. Seller is solely responsible for assessing the adequacy of its insurance, and Buyer in no way represents that the limits specified above are adequate to protect Seller’s interests. In the event that Seller utilizes subcontractors, Seller shall require each subcontractor to maintain its separate insurance complying with the terms hereof.
15. Country of Origin; Related Requirements. Seller hereby warrants that all of the Goods specified in the Order are of U.S. origin, within the meaning of the customs laws of the United States, as presently interpreted by the U.S. Customs Service, unless before the time it supplies any Goods Seller notifies Buyer in writing of a different country of origin, in which case, it shall give full details regarding such country of origin. Upon Seller’s notification of a different country of origin, Buyer may either reject or accept the Goods by written instruction. If Seller supplies Goods of foreign origin under the Order and fails to notify Buyer in writing, or notifies Buyer incorrectly of the country of origin, whether through negligence or without negligence, Seller shall indemnify Buyer for all its expenses, duties, penalties, damages, including compromise or mitigated settlements, and attorney’s fees incurred by Buyer by such failure to notify or by any incorrect notification.
16. Termination for Convenience: Buyer may terminate this Agreement and/or the performance of work under the Order in whole or in part upon written notice of termination, whereupon the Seller will promptly stop work on that date accordingly. Seller will promptly advise the Buyer of the quantities of applicable work and material on hand or purchased prior to termination and the most favorable disposition that the Seller can make thereof. Seller will comply with the Buyer’s instructions regarding transfer and disposition of title to such work and material. Within 60 days after receipt of such notice of termination, the Seller will submit all its claims resulting from the termination. Buyer will have the right to inspect all finished Goods and to audit the cost of all work in process and raw material applicable to the terminated work. Buyer will not be responsible for any items used or sold by the Seller, or the cost of any defective, damaged or destroyed work or material. Buyer will make no payments for finished work, work in process or raw materials fabricated or procured by the Seller in excess of any Order (or permission to proceed with part of an Order) or after receipt of notice of termination. Notwithstanding the above, payments made under this clause shall not exceed the sales price specified in this Order. Payment made under this clause will constitute the Buyer’s only liability in the event this Agreement or the Order is terminated hereunder. This provision will not apply to any cancellation by the Buyer for default by the Seller or for any other cause allowed by law or under this Order.
17. Compliance With Applicable Laws: Each Party shall comply with all applicable laws, including without limitation, government export control, and privacy and data protection laws.
18. Material Safety Data Sheets: Seller warrants that a copy of any change to a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for chemicals, compounds or hazardous materials is forwarded to the Buyer’s Purchasing departments in advance of
shipment or enclosed with the shipment of the supply to the Buyer’s premises.
19. Waiver: The failure of Buyer to insist, in any one or more instances, upon the performance of any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Agreement or to exercise any right hereunder, shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the future performance of any such terms, covenants or conditions or the future exercise of such right, but the obligation of Seller with respect to such future performance shall continue in full force and effect.
20. Assignment and Subcontracting: None of the sums due or to become due, nor any of the work to be performed under this Agreement shall be assigned by Seller without Buyer’s prior written consent. Buyer shall remain fully responsible for Goods or Services that are assigned or performed by any subcontractor.
21. Law Governing; Forum; Attorney’s Fees: This Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Georgia. Any dispute which arises under this Agreement which cannot be resolved amicably by the parties shall be settled by binding arbitration, in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association in Atlanta, Georgia. Judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Costs and expenses of the arbitration shall be borne equally by the parties unless otherwise provided by the arbitrator(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, claims for non-payment, fraud, or infringement of intellectual property may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction and shall not be subject to binding arbitration. | law |

The Zone is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, native forests, abundant wetlands and extensive coastal heath. The State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) overturned the Council’s unanimous decision to reject the Developer’s Application. The Minister for Planning sat on an amendment that would have specifically prohibited the mine.
2010 a local developer applied for a mining operation and was unanimously rejected by Council and not appealed;
2017, the Developer again applied to establish a mining operation for lime extraction in the Conservation Zone;
Extracting up to 50,000 tonnes of lime per year;
14 truck movements per day; and
Impacts on the Bibbulmun track.
Council unanimously rejected the application
The EPA decided not to do an assessment.
Application to clarify Local Planning Scheme definitions and specifically prohibit extractive mining progressed through WA Planning Commission. The Minister for Planning decided not to make a determination on the amendment until SAT had made a decision.
In January 2019, the SAT approved the application.
In February 2019, a clearing application permit was lodged with the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation. | law |

In response to discriminatory voting procedures in some states/localities, the Civil Rights Act of 1965
established a coverage formula to determine which jurisdictions would be subject to additional federal
oversight. Any jurisdiction identified by the formula would be required to obtain “preclearance” from
the Department of Justice before making changes to their voting and/or registration procedures.
Congress renewed the Voting Rights Act in 1970, 1975, 1982, and 2006.
In Shelby v. Holder (2013), the Supreme Court ruled in a 5-4 decision that a portion of the Voting Rights
Act of 1965 was unconstitutional. Specifically, the Court struck down the “coverage formula” (found in
Section 4 of the C.R. Act) that determined which jurisdictions should be required to obtain preclearance.

1.3 These Terms and Conditions, which are available at www.mststolls.com, can be updated from time to time without prior notice. The Client’s continued use of our services shall be deemed as acceptance of the updated Terms and Conditions.
1.4 Natural and/or legal persons who are directly or indirectly involved in any way in the services provided by us or on our behalf can also rely on these Terms and Conditions.
Clause 2 – Conclusion of agreements and the form in which they are concluded
2.1 All our statements, communications, and actions that do not intend to confirm the existence or creation of an agreement, do not bind us.
2.2 Agreements can only be concluded when they are confirmed by us in writing. The commencement of the execution of an instruction given to us constitutes proof of the conclusion of an Agreement.
2.3 When these Terms and Conditions require notifications or statements to be effected in writing, then this requirement is considered to have been satisfied also if those notifications or statements are exchanged electronically between the Client and us.
2.5 The term Agreements also includes the additional (required) agreements for additional, new services.
Clause 3 – Our services
3.1 Our services consist of:
A. the conclusion of framework agreements (“Framework Agreements”) whether in the name of the Client or not but always at his expense and for the benefit of one or more road transport companies, regarding:
1. the use of roads and other infrastructure, and the payment for that use,
2. the payment for related or unrelated items or services with third parties (“Service Providers”) that are charged with the collection of the fees for the use of those items or services, in which these Framework Agreements consist in essence of arrangements pertaining to the deferred payment of such fees and their periodical settlement on the basis of subsequent calculation, and
3. keeping the accounts with respect to all agreements concluded from time to time by our Clients with Service Providers, and the amounts payable by our Clients to us and to the Service Providers, respectively, pursuant to those agreements (“Payment Services”), and
B. the financial settlement on behalf of our Clients of individual agreements for the provision of services or for the payment of services and items concluded by them within the scope of Framework Agreements, and the financial management of the funds made available to us for that purpose.
3.2 For the services specified in Clause 3.1, we periodically charge each Client a fee determined on a case by case basis to be paid periodically.
3.3 When we settle amounts on behalf of the Client in currencies other than the currency in which we invoice the Client, we have the right to calculate an exchange rate of 2,5% for the amounts to be invoiced.

b. The Client itself is responsible for a proper registration. For every order of an Eurovignette, a confirmation is sent along with the vehicle information submitted. The Client must always verify this confirmation and notify us immediately if the registration is inaccurate, when necessary.
c. A refund can be requested only for Eurovignettes (at least one month valid) supplied through us. In the event Eurovignettes is paid through installments, refund(s) will only be processed through us.

e. When you ordered Eurovignettes you will always receive a confirmation e-mail on your e-mail address known by us.

4.4 Loyalty bonus and service fee When we pay a loyalty bonus to the Client, such as in the case of Italian toll, the Frejus or Mont Blanc tunnel, we will calculate a service fee by applying a percentage to the amount of the bonus (5,75% for Italian Toll, 4,75% for Frejus and/or Mont Blanc tunnel).
4.5 Service fee We reserve the right to charge a service fee for services offered through the MyTolls self- service platform (Clause 8.1), but which are purchased in a non-self-service manner (e.g. a request from Client to us via e-mail or phone). Clause

Rhode Island households with consistent records of voting in Democratic primaries need to understand that when he’s in Congress, Don Carlson will stand up for Rhode Island values. Don will use his experience in government, as an educator, and as a clean energy innovator to get things done for Rhode Island families. As a senior aide to two Democratic Members of Congress, Don helped pass legislation to address our country’s affordable housing crisis.
As voters cast their ballots throughout August and September, they need to be reminded of the following:
Passing Common-Sense Gun Safety Measures
Gun violence has affected far too many families in America, and Don Carlson will stand up to the NRA in Congress. In March 2023, Don’s youngest daughter, Ella, had to shelter in place from an active shooter at her college. Don will bring people together to pass meaningful gun safety laws, including banning military-style assault weapons, to keep our kids safe.
Protecting Abortion Rights & Reproductive Freedom
As Congressional Republicans work to pass a nationwide abortion ban, Don Carlson will work to protect abortion rights in federal law. After the overturning of Roe v. Wade, Don knows it’s never been more important to protect women’s ability to make their own medical decisions, including their ability to access birth control.
Addressing Climate Change
For twenty years, Don Carlson has been a clean energy innovator – investing in companies to help address climate change. In Congress, he’ll build on his business experience and expand Rhode Island’s successful partnership between business and labor to combat climate change and protect our communities from its effects.
Protecting Social Security and Medicare from Republican Cuts
Republicans in Congress are trying to raise the retirement age and gut Social Security. Don Carlson will fight every day to ensure everyone has access to affordable healthcare and prevent cuts to programs that our seniors have earned, like Social Security and Medicare. | law |

Have you thought of filing for bankruptcy but really don’t want to due to fear? If you answered yes to either of those questions, maybe it’s time for you to avoid bankruptcy and consider a Consumer Proposal.
What is a Consumer Proposal?
It is a legal procedure to those who are having financial difficulties, but can still afford to pay a portion of their debt. At our firm, we would put together a payment plan that works for both you and the creditors. We would then present that plan to the creditors. If and when your plan is accepted, it becomes a legal binding settlement for your debts.
Why would your creditors accept a Consumer Proposal and only get a portion of the full amount they are owed? A Proposal is a better option for them because even though they may not get the full amount owing, they would still receive more with this option then if you were to file for bankruptcy.
Here are a few advantages of a Consumer Proposal:
- You have the ability to negotiate to repay a portion of the full debt owing.
- Interest stops accumulation effective the date you file for a Consumer Proposal.
- The maximum repayment period is 5 years.
- You can include debts owing to Canada Revenue for unpaid income taxes/HST.
- You will be protected from your creditors as it is creditor and court approved.
- The effect on your credit rating is less harsh than a bankruptcy.
- You would not lose your home or any of your assets.
When you are looking at all your options, ensure you are making the most educated decision possible. If your best option is a Consumer Proposal, let our team provide you the Fresh Start that you need and allow you to work toward the financial future you always wanted. | law |

- ICF worked with the government of Liberia to establish a single point business registration system and as a result it now takes a maximum of 6 days instead of 99 to register a business.
- ICF worked with the government of Rwanda to improve the business registration process and now it takes 2 days instead of 16 to register a business, there are only 2 procedures to go through instead of 9, and the registration cost is now US$25 instead of US$433.
- ICF worked with the government of Rwanda to establish an online tax payment system. As a result domestic taxes (VAT, income tax and PAYE) can be filed instantaneously instead of the previous 23.5 days. Secure online filing of tax returns in Rwanda can now be done from anywhere and payment can be done in person, online or using mobile money transfer.
- ICF worked with the government of Cape Verde to establish one-stop-shops for providing business life cycle services. As a result it now takes 1 hour to register a business in Cape Verde, 2 days instead of 15 to process a wholesale licence, 10 days instead of 30 for a construction licence, and 2 to 10 days to formally close a business.
- ICF worked with the government of Senegal to modernize its customs procedures so that it now takes 15 minutes instead of 2 days to register for customs declaration and 1 day instead of 18 to clear customs.
- ICF worked with the government of Senegal to create a paperless trade process and as a result customs pre-clearance now takes 7 hours instead of 2 days.
- ICF worked with the governments of Rwanda, Burkina Faso and Sierra Leone to automate land registration thereby contributing to security for investors by helping prevent boundary disputes and facilitating access to credit.
- In the Burkina Faso land registration project an electronic database was created and procedures streamlined leading to a reduction in the time it takes to transfer property from 182 days to 21 days. | law |

Penalties for a conviction can include loss of license, higher insurance, fines, and jail time. However, getting arrested is not the same as getting convicted. If you are arrested for a crime, the law presumes you are innocent until proven guilty. However, if you plead guilty and get sentenced or go to trial and are found guilty by a judge or jury, you are no longer innocent. You have been convicted.
Just getting arrested for a DUI can lead to a suspended license and other consequences. However, if your case gets dismissed or you go to trial and are found “not guilty” you will not have a conviction on your record. Because its important to try and avoid a conviction, the following is list of 10 ways to challenge a DC DUI. Keep in mind this is not an exhaustive list, all cases are different, and there are no guarantees any of these strategies will work for your specific case. The point of this article is to demonstrate that there are many options for challenging a DC DUI arrest. | law |

They clarified that in fact, through the use of remote proctoring software on their online exams, they had identified some students who were using unfair means — technological tools — while taking the test. The students’ results were temporarily withheld and will be resubmitted once they prove they can answer all the exam questions correctly.
A spokesperson for ICAP, the company that oversees online test security, announced that an investigation into claims of cheating on the online tests concluded earlier this month. The teacher, alleged to have been involved in assisting students taking the test, has been detained. The person is not a member of ICAP and does not have any connection with ICAP.
The spokesperson also said that the inclusion of representatives from educational institutions and CPA firms on the governing council does not pose a risk to the independence and integrity of ICAP. ICAP has put in place strong controls to ensure that there is no outside influence on examination system policy making. | law |

In an effort to clarify what this ruling means to livestock producers and other industry professionals, members of the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Illinois offered a webinar on January 28, 2014 to address the new rules.
The discussion covered what the new steps mean to the livestock industry, what they don't mean, and how producers and others should respond. The webinar was presented by professor emeritus James Pettigrew, Extension swine veterinarian Larry Firkins, and professor Hans Stein.
"This announcement is not a surprise; it has been anticipated for several months," Pettigrew said.
Pettigrew explained that while the FDA's approach to antibiotic use in food animals had been published previously, the new documents issued this month describe the implementation of that approach.
"The documents address only those antibiotics considered important in human medicine, which are all of them except the widely-used ionophores and a few others," Pettigrew said. "The new rules apply only to antibiotics used in feed or drinking water."
The core of the FDA's approach includes:
- No use of these antibiotics for production purposes (to improve growth rate or feed efficiency).
- All uses of these antibiotics must be under veterinary oversight.
- Disease prevention is specifically recognized as an approved judicious use of antibiotics.
The slides from the webinar are available as a PDF download. The archived video of the webinar is also available below:

- Between 12,500€ and 25,000€: 5% of the outstanding principal.
Where the invoice remains unpaid, the Photographer shall be entitled to terminate the contract and any other contract with the same Client, with all consequences of termination to be borne by the Client. The Photographer shall also be entitled to compensation for the harm caused by the termination in addition to the penalties set out above.
Where the Client is a consumer, he/she may claim the compensation and interest set out in this clause in the event that the Photographer fails to fulfill his/her obligations.
ARTICLE 4: PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICE
The photographs shall be taken by the Photographer or, in the case of a force majeure event as provided for in Article 10, by any other Photographer appointed with the Client’s agreement.
The Photographer shall not be bound by a performance obligation, but shall use his best endeavours to provide high-quality photographs appropriate to the purpose stated in Article 1 and in accordance with his artistic judgement. Consequently, the Client cannot reject the photographs on grounds of taste.
If the Client wishes to change any aspect of the photography service, he/she shall send the request to the Photographer by text message or email no later than 7 days before the scheduled date of the shoot. Any requests sent after this date cannot be accommodated. Only changes approved by the Photographer in writing shall be accepted.
The shoot must start at the agreed time. If the Client is late, the shoot may be curtailed accordingly. Should the Client be more than 30 minutes late, the shoot shall be cancelled and the deposit withheld.
The Client hereby declares that he/she is legally an adult and is posing for the photographs of his/her own free will. Where applicable, the Client authorises the Photographer to take photographs of his/her children in their preferred photographic style.
The Photographer must not be obstructed from carrying out his work during the shoot by amateur photographers. Any children present at the photo shoot shall remain under the sole responsibility of their parents.
In the event that the Client, a child or any other person in the studio causes damage to equipment, the Photographer shall be entitled to reclaim the cost of such damage in full.
ARTICLE 5: POST-PROCESSING
Under no circumstances shall the Photographer deliver unprocessed photographs. Post-processing, like the shoot itself, is specific to the Photographer and an integral part of his work, style and artistic sensitivities. The Photographer shall therefore exercise exclusive discretion over the post-processing phase. The parties shall only be permitted to use the photographs processed by the Photographer.
The Photographer reserves the right to accept or refuse additional retouch requests from the Client, and to charge an additional fee for the extra work involved at the price stated in Article 1.
ARTICLE 6: DELIVERY
The Photographer shall make every effort to deliver the photographs as quickly as possible (within one month).
The selected and retouched photographs shall be sent to the Client via a download link or via a private, password-protected gallery or any other mean agreed upon with the Client. The electronic files shall be delivered in JPEG format. All other files shall remain the property of the Photographer and shall not be handed over to the Client.
Once the files have been delivered to the Client, the Client shall be solely responsible for storing and archiving the photographs. The Client is therefore advised to make back-up copies on various media.
ARTICLE 7: LEAD TIMES
The lead times stated in the estimate and in this contract are expressed in business days and provided for information purposes only. The Client shall under no circumstances be entitled to compensation or have the right to break the contract should delays occur.
Where a lead time is imperative, it must be clearly specified as such prior to signature of the contract. In such an event, where delivery of the photographs is delayed, the Client shall send a registered letter. Where such letter goes unheeded for 15 days, the Client may then claim compensation, up to a maximum of 10% of the total price of the order, provided that he/she can produce evidence of the harm occasioned by late delivery of the photographs. Even in such circumstances, the agreed lead times shall not be binding on the Photographer where the delay is caused by a force majeure event (see Article 10), where the Client fails to adhere to the payment terms, or where the Client requests changes during performance of the order.
ARTICLE 8: DISCLAIMER
The Photographer cannot be held liable for non-performance or part-performance of the outdoor services, as initially agreed in the order and indicated in Article 1, for reasons relating to inclement weather such as stormy conditions or heavy rain. No refund shall be due in such circumstances, but the session may be postponed to a later date by mutual agreement.
Where a technical problem affecting the photography equipment or an accident occurring during performance of the service prevents the Photographer from delivering the requested work, the Client shall be entitled to a refund of the full price. No additional compensation, of whatever nature, shall be due.
Where the photographs are lost or damaged prior to delivery (due to theft, fire, etc.), the Client shall only be entitled to a refund of the price of the service.
Where the electronic files are lost or damaged after delivery to the Client, the Photographer shall bear no liability. The files shall, however, remain available for 3 months from delivery and may be re-sent during this period if necessary.
ARTICLE 9: TERMINATION FOR BREACH
Where the Client breaches his/her obligations, the Photographer shall issue a formal notice. Where such notice remains unheeded for 30 days, the Photographer may terminate the contact automatically and claim compensation for all harm occasioned.
Where the Client cancels the photography service after the cooling-off period has expired, the contract shall be terminated automatically and the Client shall bear the consequences thereof, including payment of compensation amounting to at least 30% of the total price of the order (deposit), except where the cancellation is due to a force majeure event affecting the Client.
Where the Client is a consumer, the same rights shall apply reciprocally between the Client and the Photographer, and according to the same procedures.
ARTICLE 10: FORCE MAJEURE
Where an event beyond the control of the Photographer (illness, accident, death of a relative, etc.) or any force majeure event (strike, lock-out, war, riot, etc.) renders it impossible to perform the contract according to the initially agreed terms, the Photographer cannot be held liable for any resulting delay, and shall be entitled to postpone performance of the photography service or to terminate the contract by registered letter without having to pay compensation.
Where the Client is a consumer, he/she shall enjoy the same right under the same conditions.
In such an event, the Photographer shall make every effort to postpone the shoot to a future date set by mutual agreement with the Client or, for a wedding photography service, to find another photographer who is available to perform the service.
Lastly, if the photo shoot is not postponed but cancelled due to a force majeure event affecting the Photographer, the Client shall be entitled to a full refund without delay.
ARTICLE 11: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Photographs taken by the Photographer during a shoot with the Client shall be copyright-protected. In consideration for payment of the price stated under Article 1, the Photographer shall transfer to the Client the following rights in the commissioned photographs: the right to print and reproduce the photographs, for private purposes and on a worldwide basis, for the duration of the copyright protection period.
The Client shall obtain the Photographer’s prior, written consent before using the photographs for any other purpose. The Client may not use the images from the shoot for commercial purposes without the Photographer’s prior, written consent.
The photographs shall remain the Photographer’s intellectual property, and shall not become copyright-free, even after delivery of the electronic files. The Client shall credit the Photographer in any and all situations where the photographs are used for personal purposes (publication online, exhibition, etc.). Similarly, the Client may not modify the photographs without the Photographer’s prior, written consent.
ARTICLE 12: IMAGE RIGHTS
The Photographer reserves the right to use the photographs that he has taken for the purpose of promoting his business (website, social media, exhibitions, etc.). The Client gives his/her consent to such use by signing this contract.
Where the Client specifically withholds consent for such use in writing, he/she cannot prevent the Photographer from using photographs in which he/she cannot be recognised or that he/she has published online or on social media.
ARTICLE 13: PERSONAL DATA
The Photographer shall process the personal information and contact details as received from the Client. The purposes of the processing shall be to perform this contract, to manage the Photographer’s clients including tracking bookings in order to guarantee proper performance of the ordered service, and to maintain accounting records. The lawful bases for the processing are performance of the contract and compliance with legal and statutory obligations. The controller is the Photographer.
The above-mentioned personal data shall be processed in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and shall only be shared with clients and/or third parties on a strictly necessary basis in line with the above-mentioned purposes of the processing. The Client shall be responsible for ensuring that the personal data provided to the Photographer is accurate and up to date.
The Client hereby confirms that he/she has received adequate information about the processing of his/her personal data and about his/her right of access, right to rectification, right to erasure and right to object. In accordance with Article 7 (3) of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to withdraw their consent at any time. Where consent is withdrawn in this way, the Photographer shall refrain from any further processing of the data.
Withdrawal of consent shall have no bearing on the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of that consent before it was withdrawn.
ARTICLE 14: COOLING-OFF PERIOD
Where the Client is a consumer, he/she shall be entitled to withdraw from this contract, where entered into remotely, within 14 days and without having to give a reason for his/her withdrawal. This right shall not apply if the photography service has been provided in full with the Client’s agreement and on the understanding that the Client will lose his/her right to withdraw within the cooling-off period if the Photographer has fulfilled the contract in its entirety.
In order to exercise this right under the cooling-off period, the Client shall notify the Photographer of his/her intent to withdraw from this contract by any unambiguous means (e.g. by post or email). To be entitled to withdraw under the cooling-off period, the Client must merely serve the notice of intent to withdraw before the period expires.
The Photographer shall refund the deposit to the Client within 14 days of receipt of the notice of intent to withdraw from this contract, via the same payment method as used for the initial transaction.
ARTICLE 15: FINAL PROVISIONS
For the purposes of this contract, the Client shall be considered a “consumer” if he/she is an individual acting for purposes which are outside his/her trade, business, craft or profession.
Where any of the above provisions is declared null and void, the remainder of this contract shall remain valid. In such an event, the parties shall renegotiate a valid clause to replace the clause declared null and void.
This contract is governed by the law of the country in which the Photographer is established or, if the Client is a consumer, in which the Client resides.
Any disputes arising in connection with the performance or interpretation of this contract shall be referred to the courts having jurisdiction over the country in which the Photographer’s business is established or, if the Client is a consumer, in which the Client resides. | law |

Carter Strickland was appointed to be the Commissioner of the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) on August 17, 2011. Previously, he served as Deputy Commissioner for Sustainability at DEP. In that role, Commissioner Strickland oversaw DEP’s environmental planning, analysis, permitting, policy, and enforcement programs, and was charged with importing sustainability principles to build on PlaNYC, Mayor Bloomberg's sustainability blueprint for New York City. He was the principal leader of DEP’s plans to shift combined sewer overflow controls to green infrastructure in its consent orders and long term control plans, to structure a program to address stormwater in its separated sewer system, and to adopt heating oil regulations that will remove more pollutants than are emitted by all of the trucks and cars in the city and save hundreds of lives each year. As part of DEP’s executive leadership team, Commissioner Strickland was instrumental in the development and implementation of Strategy 2011-2014, DEP’s plan to become the safest, most efficient, cost-effective, and transparent water utility in the nation, and lead DEP’s efforts for national regulatory reforms that would prioritize water and wastewater investments according to a rational cost-benefit approach that maximizes public health benefits.
Before joining DEP, Commissioner Strickland was the Senior Policy Advisor for Air and Water with the Mayor’s Office of Long Term Planning and Sustainability, where he was responsible for the implementation of PlaNYC across all agencies and departments, with a focus on water, air, and natural resource issues. The foundation for Commissioner Strickland’s work on sustainability initiatives was developed through his extensive regulatory and litigation practice at the New York Attorney General’s Office and the Rutgers Environmental Law Clinic, where he taught environmental law and policy and directed the clinic’s litigation of numerous ground-breaking natural resource and pollution control cases on behalf of local and national environmental groups.
Commissioner Strickland is a graduate of Dartmouth College (A.B. 1990) and Columbia University School of Law (J.D. 1995), where he was Executive Editor of the Columbia Environmental Law Journal and a Harlan Fiske Stone Scholar. Following law school he clerked for the Honorable Joseph H. Young, U.S. District Judge, in Baltimore, Maryland. | law |

We undergo an assessment every 6 months which will review our systems, including processes and records, pertaining to the manufacture, re-manufacture, repair, treatment and marking of wood packaging material. It will include a review of:
If the assessment is successful the Forestry Commission will issue us with a certificate via TIMCON. The certificate is valid for six months.
The risks of introducing and spreading tree pests through the transport of packaging material made of unprocessed wood is recognised internationally. Certain pests, including wood boring longhorn beetles from the family Cerambycidae, bark beetles from the family Scolytidae, and the pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, are readily transported and spread via infested wood packaging material.
In 2002, an International Standard for a Phytosanitary Measure, Guidelines for regulating wood packaging material in international trade (ISPM15), was adopted by the Interim Commission on Phytosanitary Measures (now the Commission on Phytosanitary Measures). Most of the UK’s international trading partners around the globe have now implemented landing regulations for wood packaging material based on ISPM15.
In order to help UK manufacturers and exporters demonstrate compliance with ISPM15, the Forestry Commission in Great Britain and the Forest Service, an agency within the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development in Northern Ireland, established a national wood packaging material marking programme in conjunction with the trade. The United Kingdom wood packaging material marking programme (UKWPMMP) regulates the manufacture, repair and re-manufacture of ISPM15 compliant WPM in the UK and is administered by the Timber Packaging and Pallet Confederation (TIMCON).
The Programme was given statutory status on 6 November 2006, when the Plant Health (Wood Packaging Material Marking) Forestry Order 2006 came into force. Operation of the UKWPMMP is overseen by an Advisory Council consisting of representatives from : | law |

Legalization, Fox told reporters is the only way to end the violence of Mexican drug cartels, which he blamed on America’s war on drugs.
“The cost of the war is becoming unbearable – too high for Mexico, for Latin America and for the rest of the world,” Fox said in English.
Every day, he said, 40 young people are killed in drug-related violence.
Support for legalizing marijuana in the United States has been growing. Nineteen states and the District of Columbia have passed medical marijuana laws, according to the pro-legalization National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. But the drug remains illegal under federal law. | law |

Halfway around the globe in Japan, music producer, writer, FRAGMENT DESIGN owner and fashion designer Hiroshi Fujiwara watched the incident unfold. In response to the police brutality & discrimination he witnessed, Hiroshi decided to release a special edition t-shirt, featuring his now iconic END RACISM design for GOODENOUGH.
Later, the design was revived by Atsuyo Kitano and he reissued the END RACISM design in response to the unjust killings of Kimani Gray, and Michael Brown by police officers. The shirt was not only a symbol of solidarity, but a reminder that we must end the cycle of systematic racism and police brutality once and for all.
