Cabinet shifts against LGBT rights as Therese Coffey replaces…
Boris Johnson has promoted Thérèse Coffey, an MP with an anti-LGBT record, to serve in his Cabinet – meaning a majority of his top team are now MPs who opposed equal marriage.
The PM was forced to make changes to his Cabinet after Secretary of State for Work and Pensions and Minister for Women and Equalities Amber Rudd quit and resigned from the Conservative Party.
MP for Suffolk Coastal Thérèse Coffey has been named the new work and pensions secretary, but she will not take on the role of equalities minister – likely due to her views on LGBT+ rights.
The new equalities minister is yet to be announced at time of publication.
More than half of Cabinet opposed equal marriage
Coffey's promotion continues the Cabinet's shift towards opponents of LGBT+ rights.
For the first time since equal marriage passed in 2013, more than half of the Cabinet have a record of opposition to same-sex marriage, with significantly more opponents than under Theresa May and David Cameron.
Other strong opponents of LGBT+ equality including Jacob Rees-Mogg and Priti Patel have key jobs under Johnson.
Therese Coffey has anti-LGBT record
In July, Coffey was one of just 73 MPs who voted against extending equal marriage to Northern Ireland, in the absence of a devolved government in the region.
She also strongly opposed the introduction of same-sex marriage in England and Wales in 2013, and was part a cabal of 15 MPs who publicly urged the House of Lords to block the legislation after it won overwhelming support in the Commons by a vote of 395-170.
In a letter to peers, Coffey urged them "in the strongest terms" to block the bill, claiming that the government was introducing same-sex marriage "without any mandate."
She wrote: "None of us was elected on a platform to redefine marriage. Genuine concerns about the impact on society's understanding of marriage and the Bill's implications for free speech and civil liberty have been swept aside."
The letter claimed: "Our postbags testify to the deep unpopularity of the Bill. Most of our constituents simply believe marriage is a unique institution that forms the bedrock of society and should be left as it is."
In her speech to the Commons at the time, she said: "Marriage involves special provisions, such as support for the family and the procreation of children.
"Of course that is not the case for all families, for various reasons, but I nevertheless think those provisions are too important to be tampered with in rushed legislation that has not been subject to adequate consultation."
Coffey also vowed to "fight" against mandatory sex and relationship education in schools, branding them "the wrong thing for this country," adding: "It is imperative that parents continue to be able to exercise the right to withdraw their children from lessons that they do not believe to be in their children's interests."

Bet You Didn't See That One Coming
Obama, Trump, and the End of Washington's Regular Order
By Bob Ehrlich
As seen on FOX News!
Bet You Didn't See That One Coming is an analysis of the unexpected election of Donald J. Trump, and the earth-shattering changing of the guard in Washington, how it's turned establishment politics on its head, and what it all means for the future of the nation.
The 24/7 media circus that follows President Trump distracts from the fundamental issue of what his election means for America going forward.
Bet You Didn't See That One Coming explains how Barack Obama's progressive policies helped ignite the ultimate anti-Obama political warrior—and how a neophyte politician's new blend of populism, nationalism, and traditional Republican policies is pulling a polarized country back toward the right.
Bob Ehrlich
Publisher: Post Hill Press (February 2018)
Political Science > Commentary & Opinion
Political Science > Public Affairs & Administration
Political Science > Political Ideologies > Conservatism & Liberalism
"I highly recommend Bet You Didn't See That One Coming to anyone interested in the ways and means of the Trump phenomenon and its consequences for America. This is not just another campaign book. It is an entertaining analysis of what happened in 2016, and why."
– The Honorable Dave Camp, Former Chairman, House Ways & Means Committee
"Good to have a serious conservative analyze without blinders the strengths and weaknesses of President Trump's politics and rhetoric. This work provides serious conservative perspectives on what fair presidential observers should make of a politically inexperienced and stylistically inelegant president who challenges the domestic and foreign policy perspectives on an immediately prior hardened leftist but charming president."
– Richard E. Vatz PhD, Towson University Distinguished Professor
"Governor Ehrlich's fourth book presents a fascinating analysis of the Obama record. An accurate and informative interpretation of how the excesses of Barack Obama's progressivism led to the election of President Trump. A must-read for anyone attempting to figure out what on earth is going on in Trump's Washington!"
– The Honorable David McIntosh, President, Club for Growth
"Robert Ehrlich is both a practitioner and an observer; a politician and an analyst. That is a potent combination, on display in this book. He knows whereof he speaks. His words have special authority."
– Jay Nordlinger, Senior Editor, National Review
"Governor Bob Ehrich is that rare kind of straight-talking sensible Republican, and he's from Maryland. Bet You Didn't See That One Coming shares his unique conservative perspective on how power shifted from Obama to Trump. Governor Ehrlich explains where we are today and what the future portends. Bet You Didn't See That One Coming is a good read!"
– Ed Feulner, President, The Heritage Foundation
"Bob Ehrlich has scaled the political peaks—state legislator, Congressman, Maryland Governor—without ever going establishment. In his latest book, he casts a cool, discerning eye on our two most recent presidents, and how the defects of Barack Obama led to the election of Donald Trump."
– Michael Barone, Washington Examiner; American Enterprise Institute; founding coauthor, The Almanac of American Politics
"Governor Ehrlich's new book is a cogent analysis of how Donald Trump's victory has challenged Obama's progressive agenda. This well-written book provides readers with rich insights into a very different political leader and his unique ways."
– Governor Haley Barbour

The Legend Of Zelda: Link's Awakening Review
Johnny HurricaneJanuary 2, 2020
Official Score
Overall - 85%
If you need a nostalgia trip or haven't played Link's Awakening before, then you won't be disappointed with this release. Just note that it is a bit more bite-sized when compared to more recent entries in the series.
User Rating: 5 ( 1 votes)
Nintendo continues their trend of remaking old games with The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. Is this adventure worth taking, or should you skip it altogether? Check out our review and find out.
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening starts with Link washing up on the shore of Koholint Island. When you wake up, you are in Mabe Village without a sword or a shield. Your first task is to retrieve your equipment from the shore and then find a way home. After you find your sword, you are greeted by an old friend who tells you about the mysterious Wind Fish of the island. If you wish to go home, you need to wake him up from his slumber. The adventure will run you roughly 10-12 hours, depending on how much side content you take on.
To do this, you will have to complete eight dungeons and collect eight instruments to use on the Wind Fish. These dungeons start off simple enough, but quickly step it up to include more complicated designs and enemies. Those who wished Breath of the Wild had more traditional dungeons will definitely be happy with these. Each of these dungeons also has a key item for you to find, like the Hookshot or Power Bracelet. While the dungeons themselves can be challenging, the bosses are often straightforward to beat.
Dungeon crawling is not all you will be doing during your stay on Koholint Island. There is a massive trade quest that brings you all over the island. The end reward is one of the better items in the game, but you can skip it entirely. On top of that, you can find seashells and turn them in at the Seashell Manor. There are now 50 in total to find around the island. Other mini-games include the infamous crane game, fishing, and river rafting. The Chamber Dungeon creator also makes its debut in this release.
The Chamber Dungeon maker is fine. It isn't great or terrible; it's just fine. You put together pieces of the dungeons and make your own dungeon. You can then go through them and earn rupees. If you do enough of them, Dampe will reward you with other items as well, such as a bottle or heart piece. The big problem here is that Super Mario Maker exists, so we know what a good builder game looks like. That, and the new Zelda content added to Super Mario Maker 2 blows this out of the water. After spending an hour with this mode, I ultimately left disappointed.
Combat in Link's Awakening is just like any other top-down Zelda, except you get the ability to jump. This does make combat a lot more simple than the 3D alternatives, but you will still face plenty of challenges. With this remake, there have been quality of life improvements added as well. In the original title, players had to equip the sword and shield manually, which took up valuable item slots. However, the sword, shield, and even the dash are now mapped to buttons and are always equipped. You will still be in and out of your inventory quite a bit, but now much less frequently.
Link's Awakening is considered one of the weird Zeldas, right up there with Majora's Mask. Animals talk, Mario characters make a cameo appearances, and you go from top-down 2D to side scroll 2D on occasion. There is also no Princess Zelda or Triforce. All of this adds to the charm of the game. None of the enemies or characters feel out of place in the Zelda universe. You can even get little statues of the Goombas, Shy Guy, and Blooper to put in people's houses. Also, jumping on a Goomba head with Link just feels so right, especially if you do a flip first.
However, there are some problems with the game. Frame drops frequently occur when entering a new zone when the text pops up, or if you dash through bushes. I didn't mind the look of the game, but I know it will turn some people off the same way Wind Waker does. The hints you get on where to go next can be very cryptic and confusing, so expect to do a lot of backtracking. There is fast travel, but it only brings you to specific places on the island. It also runs $60, which is steep for 12 hours if you compare it to Breath of the Wild or even Hyrule Warriors.
If you need a nostalgia trip or haven't played Link's Awakening before, then you won't be disappointed with this release. Just note that it is a bit more bite-sized when compared to more recent entries in the series.

A funky fresh new direction for Tango Gameworks, Hi-Fi Rush combines rhythm-based combat with a world perfectly in sync. Should players move to the groove, or is the wannabe rocker Chai a little off-key?
Featuring a fantasy world, magic, and a sentient bracelet named Cuff, Luminous Productions has teamed up with Square Enix for their new title Forspoken. The debut title for the studio, should players set out to find their way home?
Fun locations, wacky characters, and hot monsters await with the release of Beautiful Glitch's Monster Prom 3: Monster Roadtrip. Should players kick the tires and light the fires, or is this roadtrip a highway to hell?
Inspired by the works of Francisco Goya, Impasto Team, Juggernaut Entertainment, and USC Games force players to use stealth and their wits to survive with their new title Impasto. Does this first-person horror adventure have what it takes to put players on edge, or will players be more tortured than Goya himself?

Rise in antisocial behaviour in Mid & East Antrim second only to Causeway Coast & Glens in NI
Mid and East Antrim had the second highest rise in anti-social behaviour in Northern Ireland during the last 12 months.
According to PSNI statistics, there were 4,918 incidents between September 2020 and August 2021 compared to 4,337, from September 2019 until August 2020.
Causeway Coast and Glens had the highest rise in Northern Ireland from 4,051 reported incidents between September 2019 until August 2020, to 4616, during the past 12 months.
A meeting of Mid and East Antrim Policing and Community Safety Partnership (PCSP) on Wednesday evening heard that anti-social behaviour includes excessive noise, graffiti, litter, fireworks, scramblers and quads.
A representative from the Youth Justice Agency told the meeting that the vast majority of young people are not engaged in this behaviour. Instead it is a "small few".
He said: "For young people who are offending, they have to know they are going to be held accountable for their behaviour and people need to know justice is being done and those responsible are being held accountable for their behaviour."
He explained that restorative justice enables young people to make amends whether it is an apology, payment or community service, for example.
The Criminal Justice Review recommended that restorative justice should be integrated into the juvenile justice system in Northern Ireland
The Youth Justice Agency representative went on to say that the agency works in partnership with other bodies including the Education Authority, Northern Health and Social Care Trust, PSNI and Probation Board to identify underlying issues, provide early intervention and signpost to other services.
"We work with families and try to encourage, support and assist them," he explained.
"Rather than seeing young people come through our doors as offenders, we see them as children first and try to build up their strengths and abilities to improve opportunities available to them and to make communities safer and reduce levels of anti-social behaviour."
The Youth Justice Agency aims to make communities safer by helping children to stop offending, working with those aged 10-17 years who have offended or are at serious risk of offending.

Pep Guardiola asked whether Man City will prioritise cup competitions after Wolves defeat
Manchester City have seen their grip on the Premier League title weaken and Pep Guardiola has been asked if he will now focus on the cup competitions.
Tyrone MarshallSenior Football Writer
Pep Guardiola will not prioritise the cup competitions ahead of the Premier League for Manchester City , as he fears the Blues could miss out on Europe if they do so.
City's hopes of a third successive Premier League title appear to be over after they blew a two-goal lead to lose 3-2 to Wolves. That leaves them 14 points behind Liverpool, who also have a game in hand, and Guardiola admits it's "unrealistic" to think about the title at the moment.
The Blues face Manchester United in a two-legged Carabao Cup semi-final in January and Port Vale in the FA Cup third round at the Etihad next weekend as they seek to defend their two domestic cup crowds.
They also face Real Madrid in the Champions League last-16 in the New Year, but Guardiola won't ease up in the Premier League in case it loosens their grip on the top four as well, despite holding an eight-point cushion on nearest challengers Wolves.
"We cannot prioritise any competition because if we do then next season we won't be in Europe," he said.
Wolves 3-2 Man City
Player ratings: Ederson and Mendy awful
Verdict: Two City men let down Molineux heroes
Ederson: How many games City keeper will miss
Jesus: Why City striker was missing from squad
Supporters: City penalty taker debate sparked
"I never prioritise competitions. Now we're back at home, playing another game in less than 40 hours and we'll see how they are and how they feel. Prepare for the next game, then the next, then the next."
Liverpool's 4-0 win at Leicester on Boxing Day night had been the defining moment in the title race according to many pundits and City had to win in the West Midlands to leapfrog Leicester.
But the defeat has left them in third and their hopes of making a title race out of this season hanging by a thread, with Guardiola admitting that prospect isn't on his mind at the moment.
"It's unrealistic to think about Liverpool, we think about Leicester, we had the chance to recover second," the City boss said of the picture at the top of the table.
"I know the quality of the team, but that's the situation."

Born in Aberdeenshire Scotland in 1887, Elizabeth Keith moved to London with her family in 1898. In 1915, she went to Japan to visit her younger sister, Elspet ("Jessie"), who was married to J.W. Robertson-Scott, publisher of the Tokyo-based magazine, The New East. Her intended holiday became a stay which lasted nine years. Keith traveled widely, making trips to Korea, China, and the Philippines and throughout Japan. She prided herself on being self-taught, and was a keen observer and student who learned from everyone she met. In 1919 she exhibited her Korean watercolors and they caught the eye of Shozaburo Watanabe who urged her to translate them into print form. With Watanabe's help, she produced over one hundred signed prints which were very successful in Japan, London and Paris. Keith returned to England in 1924 where she studied color etching. In 1927 her watercolor entitled, Korean Bride was exhibited at the Royal Academy. In 1932 Keith returned to Japan where her sister, Jessie, helped to promote her works. With the war looming, Keith returned to England in 1936 and then had sold-out exhibitions in America in 1937.
After the war, she renewed her working relationship with Watanabe and in 1956, the year of her death, there was a solo show of Elizabeth Keith works in Tokyo, which included 59 woodblock prints and 8 colored etchings. She lived in England in her latter years and was a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts.

Teacher unions to clash in court with Commissioner Morath over charter school law
Posted On August 31, 2018 · Add Comment ·
Originally published in the Quorum Report on August 31, 2018. Republished here with permission.
By: Kimberly Reeves
Groups file suit, accuse Morath of going beyond the legislature's intent and weakening protections for ISD employees, Sen. Bettencourt argues ISDs would lose if the teacher groups win
Editor's note: A copy of the lawsuit filed in Travis County is available to our subscribers at the end of this story – SB
Two teacher unions are heading to court to try to vacate Education Commissioner Mike Morath's rulemaking to implement so-called "turnaround partnerships" passed by lawmakers last session.
These turnaround partnerships – where a district turns its failing school over to a charter provider – were intended to provide school districts with more latitude to rescue failing schools, rather than forcing districts to turn those schools over to a board of managers, as required by a sanctions bill, House Bill 1842, passed during the 2015 session.
The Texas State Teachers Association and Texas American Federation of Teachers never liked the turnaround partnerships bill, Senate Bill 1882. They freely admit that fact, but the two groups hoped teachers on failing campuses would at least have some input into the future of their schools, given that many had spent years, or even decades, on those campuses.
The two associations feel they lost that opportunity in the San Antonio Independent School District, which is working with Democracy Prep. A legal effort to stop the school failed.
In this second round, the two groups have faulted Morath with overstepping his authority when he issued rules to implement the partnerships, and even reversed a portion of his own rulemaking a month after the rules went into effect.
"What we are seeing more and more is a real power grab, that has been characterized as going well beyond the authority given to the commissioner in statute," said Louis Malfaro of Texas AFT. "We feel we have an imperious bureaucrat who has again overstepped his authority, and undercut the authority of the local school districts."
The mantra almost every education group – and Morath – has embraced in recent months is that the quality of the teacher is the biggest component in a child's educational success. But executing on that is where the difference lies: For the teacher unions, it's more input and participation of teachers in the solution to failing schools. From education "reformers," it's the ability of a school leader to remove and replace bad teachers.
Texas Aspires labeled the lawsuit frivolous, tying the hands of school leaders looking for the resources to resolve education issues. While teacher groups were slamming Commissioner Morath, Texas Aspires was defending him.
"It is beyond a stretch to claim TEA's rulemaking is not a faithful extension of lawmakers' legislative intent," said Texas Aspires' executive director Will Fullerton.
"Local community leaders and educators across the state are already hard-at-work transforming the schools that will shape our future with supports provided by SB 1882. And rather than focusing on the hard work of changing our state's educational landscape, union leaders in cahoots with powerful national organizations are playing a game of smoke and mirrors," Fullerton said. "It's not the right thing to do, and it ultimately hurts Texas students."
The teacher groups want the section of education code that applies to teacher contracts – Chapter 21 – to also apply to in-district charter schools. Education reformers consider a charter's freedom from teacher contract regulations – and the ability to fire at will – to be a tool often used to improve school performance.
The Texas Charter School Association declined to comment on the litigation. That's because the association is not named in the lawsuit and has not collected data to determine how often, or under what circumstances, the waiving of Chapter 21 has played a role in the success of the charter schools in the state.
In the case of SAISD's Democracy Prep, members of the local chapter of TSTA/Texas AFT apparently were at the table during the monthly discussions. The district's position is that the input the unions wanted – formal consultation – was not necessary because Democracy Prep did not fall under the category of the typical open-enrollment charter school.
School leaders and school boards are nowhere near this fray, but they would likely be the ones to suffer if the teacher unions prevailed in their concerns, said Sen. Paul Bettencourt, R-Houston.
Bettencourt, who co-sponsored SB 1882, had yet to read the lawsuit, but told Quorum Report that it would be school districts that to lose out if teacher groups win in court.
"The intent was to give extra benefits to districts to do what was outlined in the bill. The only people who didn't support it were the unions, and even they were neutral in their testimony," Bettencourt said.
"The ironic part about this is that, if they were somehow successful, the only thing that would happen is that the district would lose these benefits, and these schools on the IR list would have to be closed," Bettencourt said. "That would be the solution."

Arizona Senate candidate, Blake Masters brings NFTs to politics
Well, this was just a question of time. Blake Masters, the co-author of tech pioneer Peter Thiel's blockbuster "Zero to One," and now a Republican U.S. Senate candidate in Arizona, is offering NFTs with a limit of 99 copies.
With the NFTs, Blake wants to get support from people "who are less conventional political donors and more founders and builders who want to see new thinking and new energy in our politics."
Blake is leaning into his Silicon Valley ties with an "Origins NFT" that shows a rotating rendition of the early cover art he used to help persuade Thiel, his former Stanford Law professor, to collaborate on "Zero to One," published in 2014.
These NFTs will go to donors who give the maximum of $5,800 that is half for the primary, and half for the general election if he wins.
NEW YORK, NY – NOVEMBER 01: Peter Thiel, Partner, Founders Fund, speaks at the New York Times DealBook conference on November 1, 2018 in New York City. (Photo by Stephanie Keith/Getty Images)
Masters, who lives in his native Tucson, helps run Thiel Capital, a multibillion-dollar firm that invests in tech startups, and is president of the Thiel Foundation.
The idea is to give donors a sense of ownership. Real-life events are planned for the virtual club.

Neat Pitch est un hypothétique projet militaire canadien datant des années 1970 qui aurait eu pour objet l'invasion et l'occupation de la province du Québec, ou une partie de celle-ci, afin de protéger les infrastructures fédérales lors d'un possible et éventuel désordre social et/ou d'une insurrection de la population francophone et nationaliste du Québec.

Contexte historique
Ce plan militaire aurait apparemment été discuté les 18 et  lors d'une rencontre secrète ayant eu lieu à Montréal entre plusieurs hauts officiers des Forces canadiennes parmi lesquels se trouvait Jean-René-Marcel Sauvé. Ce dernier aurait ensuite divulgué des informations secrètes à un proche de Jacques Parizeau qui à son tour le fit auprès du chef du Parti Québécois, René Lévesque.

Ce plan militaire serait apparu après la crise d'Octobre 1970 pendant laquelle le gouvernement fédéral a décrété la Loi sur les mesures de guerre puis a expédié plusieurs soldats de son infanterie pour contrôler la population québécoise durant l'enquête policière imminente, sans gêne, ni restriction.

Mais en 1972, lorsque le plan Neat Pitch est étudié, on craint qu'une épisode pire que la crise d'Octobre ait lieu face à la montée fulgurante de la popularité du Parti québécois nouvellement fondé par René Lévesque. Il y avait aussi le front commun intersyndical qui se mettait en place où l'on assista à une grève générale en mai 1972. Apparemment, le plan ne fut jamais réalisé malgré l'entrée au pouvoir dudit parti en 1976 et la tension liée au premier référendum sur la souveraineté en mai 1980.

Colombo City Centre: A Sneak Peek!.
The skyline of Colombo has been sprouting with new skyscrapers at an unbelievably rapid pace, and Colombo City Centre is its newest member. Abans and NextStory Group's love child worth 180 million USD was unveiled yesterday (19th) and now open to the public.
Based on our quick trip to Colombo City Centre this morning, here's a sneak peek at what you can expect from this massive, meticulously designed shopping mall located on a stretch of Sir James Pieris Mawatha, opposite Beira Lake.
After our somewhat disappointing experience at Marino Mall last month (which is basically just floors and floors of Damro showrooms), we weren't expecting much – so it was a pleasant surprise for us to see a complex of shops which is not just Abans. Sure we noticed a few Abans and LG outlets on every floor, wedged in between other merchandisers, but it's nice that they haven't prioritized or used this space just to boast of their products.
This building is a 47-storey building, comprising a 5-storey retail space along with 164-room hotel and 192 residential apartments which are still under construction. The retail space is fully operational, incorporating entertainment, shopping and culinary units.
The Retail Space
Spread out through the first five floors (from Ground to 4th floor) of Colombo City Centre, the retail space includes a mix of over 16 high-end local and global brands, which we find really impressive.
The ground floor is lined up with boutiques like Armani Exchange, Swarovski, BsaB, Charles & Keith, Spa Ceylon, Luxe Bags by Odel and of course LG. Upon entering to your right, there's a massive VR display if you want entertain yourself by walking with some dinosaurs in the jungle.
The first floor is aligned with brands like Envoy, mothercare, Galleria, U.S. Polo Assn., Jockey, Basilur, Sting, C. & J. Clark, Titan, Roots Gelato, Abans Laptops and LG phones/TV.
Incorporated with boutiques like Jezza, aditi, Abans Homestyle, elithé Naturals (product of Nature Secrets), Odel, Kadapatha, Chamathka, and Aviraté, the second floor boasts of local brands, but it also has a couple of global brands like Insoles and The Face Shop.
The third floor of Colombo City Centre is dedicated for the cinema theater managed by Scope Cinemas, a stall of Bubble Me Bubble Tea, Miniso, Odel Sports and the most elegant food court you'll ever see in Colombo (or maybe in the country).
With nearly 20 restaurants, the food court at Colombo City Centre is called Food Studio, and it covers a massive range of food preferences – including Japanese, Indian, Sri Lankan, Chinese and whatnot. The restaurant collection here includes McDonald's, Isle of Gelato, The Mango Tree, Sumatran Spice, Midah Sisters, Shiok, House of the Moon, Tokyo Shokudo, Simply Strawberries by Jagro, Grub, Punch Island Bar, The Little Prince, and Fresh Intentions. The Portuguese chicken franchise, Oporto is also supposed to open a stand here very soon.
One of the things I liked about this food court is that they don't just promote themselevs through fancy restaurant brands – they display the cuisines that each restaurant has to offer. So, you don't have to peek into all the restaurants to see what they have – you just have to look these yellow neon lights with your preferred food type.
The Food Studio is a construction of two sections, and be it a family outing, private/business meeting, friendly get togethers, or a date – this place caters to all these events. It also has an outdoor lounge that opens to the scenic views of the Beira Lake.
The fourth floor is where you can access the parking lot, and there's this one shop called Amari in its corner – a shop that sells bonsai trees, and ornamental plants.
So far, so good! It seems like Colombo city finally has a shopping mall that actually lives up to the standards of a 'shopping mall', offering up a brilliant combination of retail, entertainment and culinary experiences. This is all we gathered during our quick visit to Colombo City Centre, and we hope to do an exclusive review soon, which includes a detailed look at each floor, especially the food court. So stay tuned!

Delaware Supreme Court Decision Provides Choice of Law Analysis for Migration of Trusts to Delaware
Delaware Fiduciary Litigation Blog

Peierls Family Trusts Case Nos. 16810, 16811 & 16812 (October 4, 2013)
In a trilogy of opinions issued on October 4, 2013 (all of which addressed issues arising out of several consent petitions filed by a single family requesting that the Court of Chancery accept jurisdiction over, and then modify, thirteen trusts), the Delaware Supreme Court ruled that the power to appoint a trustee without geographic limitation includes the implicit power to change the law governing trust administration.
Primarily because the prospective Delaware trustees were not yet in place, the Supreme Court largely affirmed the Vice Chancellor's finding that Delaware had no jurisdiction over the petitions. But in so doing, the Supreme Court notably ruled that a boilerplate governing law provision in the trust does not prevent a change in law governing administration. Further, the Court instructed parties to play "pitch and catch" in situations where a foreign court has jurisdiction. In other words, parties are advised to ask permission from the court to which the trust is accountable for the trust to leave the state and to ask the court which will assume jurisdiction to accept it.
The two principal takeaways from these rulings in our opinion are: (1) appoint the Delaware trustee before asking Delaware to take jurisdiction, and (2) consider the Supreme Court's language suggesting that parties more often utilize out-of-court options to achieve desired results.
The Supreme Court's three opinions are attached in full to this page as a PDF.

After looking for a very long time we purchased our first pontoon boat from Premier Motorsports and had an amazing experience from start to finish! Ben was very knowledgeable not only about his product but the industry as well and was able to answer all of our questions as dumb as some of them may have been. Ben took us to the water and took his time explaining how to launch and operate the boat and made sure that everyone aboard drove and was comfortable. We appreciated this very much. Thank you so much! Beyond excited for summer!

Q: popup can't stay in the center of screen due to background page scrolling back to top I have this problem that the page is scrolling to the top when I click a button to open a popup window.
So, if I scroll down the page to almost bottom, there is a button 'submit', when clicked, a popup window will open, which supposed to open in the center of the screen. But once 'submit' is clicked, the page scrolls up to the top, which makes the popup is not visible(the popup window is in the center of the old page before it scrolls to the top). What's more, if I scroll page down, close the popup window, click 'submit' again, the page will not scroll to the top, and the popup is indeed in the center of the window. It's only the first time when the button is clicked, the page will scroll to the top by itself.
I want the popup window keep in the center of the screen all the time, I used data-position-to="window" to achieve this. I believe the reason it's not in the center is because the page itself scrolls to the top. Wondering how should I do to fix this?
This is my popup :

Form Error

Please answer to at least one of the questions

            OK

Code I use to open popup:
$("#feedbackValidationError").popup("open");

and for close the popup:
 $(document).on('pageinit', '#FeedbackEnter',
     function () {
         $("#feedbackValidationErrorButton").on("click",
             function () {
                  $("#feedbackValidationError").popup("close");
             }
         );
      }
 );

A: I think this is the behavior that you are trying to describe in your question. https://jsfiddle.net/5mrybr1v/3/
To solve that you can show popUp after scroll.
window.scrollTo(0,0);
$("#feedbackValidationError").popup("open");
https://jsfiddle.net/5mrybr1v/4/

A: You can use CSS to handle this. position: fixed will keep the element fixed to the window instead of the position in the document.
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/vLeh24z1/1/
No matter where you scroll it stays in the same position.
.popup {
    height: 100px;
    width: 100px;
    position: fixed;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    margin-left: -50px;
    margin-top: -50px;

Joe is a 34 year old forestry worker. One day he had a panic attack out of the blue while queuing in a supermarket. He started sweating, his heart was beating very fast and he was extremely dizzy. He was convinced he was going to pass out and so he ran out of the supermarket, leaving his shopping behind. As soon as he got out of the shop, he felt better. Joe was very confused about why that had happened to him, and also embarrassed that he'd had to run out of a shop. He began to worry that he might have another panic attack and started to feel anxious at the thought of going to supermarkets. He decided that there was no need to go to supermarkets and instead went to his local shop when he needed something. A couple of weeks later, Joe was driving to work on the motorway when he started to feel anxious and panicky. As he was scared he might lose control of the car and cause a crash, Joe came off the motorway at the next junction. Joe felt better straight away and decided that from then on he would not risk driving on the motorway. Joe reasoned that since he might have a panic attack and need to leave places suddenly, it would be best to avoid busy places where it might be difficult to get out such as supermarkets, shopping centres, lifts, cinemas and the motorway. Joe's wife began to get annoyed with him because the whole family had to make allowances for his anxiety. In addition, Joe was becoming worried because he was avoiding more things over time and he wondered where it would end, and so he made the decision to come for a psychological assessment.
During the assessment, Joe and I discussed how his difficulties had progressed. We talked about what he wanted to gain from attending therapy and set his therapy goals, which included things like gaining confidence, using the motorway again and going for a date to the cinema.
Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) has a strong evidence-base for panic disorder and is recommended by the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) as the treatment of choice for this condition. This approach was discussed with Joe and we agreed to meet for 8 sessions of CBT.
1) Understanding the problem and what keeps it going
We began by considering what was causing and maintaining the panic. We went through Joe's experiences of panic in detail and learned that his panic attacks consisted of a) physical sensations and b) misinterpretation of those sensations as dangerous (this is called catastrophic thinking). More specifically, the first time Joe had a panic attack, he was in a busy queue in a supermarket. He was feeling stressed at the time because he had left work late and was worried he was going to be late home again, possibly resulting in an argument with his wife. He was thinking about how he needed to get out of there as quickly as possible and he began experiencing a number of physical symptoms associated stress and anxiety, such as increased heart rate and sweating and dizziness. When this happened, Joe started to think about how faint he felt and how embarrassing it would be if he did so in front of the other people in the supermarket. These thoughts resulted in increased anxiety, further physical symptoms and further catastrophic thinking, with Joe thinking he was going to pass out for sure. In order to prevent this happening, Joe left the supermarket and found that he felt better immediately, as he was no longer at risk of passing out and embarrassing himself. While getting out worked to decrease his anxiety in the short-term, Joe then began to worry about going back to the supermarket, and so in the longer-term, the avoidance only served to increase his anxiety levels and likelihood that he would panic. Therefore the areas we identified as important for intervention were catastrophic thinking and avoidance.
2) Managing catastrophic thinking
We began by getting Joe to identify his thinking processes when he was stressed and anxious. By doing so, Joe was able to recognise that when he noticed symptoms of anxiety, he started having a lot of catastrophic thoughts such as,"I am going to pass out", "I am going to lose control". Next we looked at these thoughts in detail and considered how accurate these were. For example, Joe was worried he was going to faint because his heart rate had increased and he felt dizzy. We investigated fainting and learned that people faint when their heart rate decreases and therefore it is almost impossible to faint when you are anxious and your heart rate is elevated (the one exception to this is blood-injury injection phobia so contact me if you wish to discuss this). As well as information about anxiety and panic, Joe was provided with techniques to help him evaluate his thinking and come up with more balanced alternatives and test these alternatives out. Joe said he felt more in control as he realised that anxiety is a normal part of life and panic only occurs when thinking about sensations becomes distorted.
3) Tackling avoidance
Now Joe had the necessary information and skills to manage his thoughts, the next step was for him to start doing the things he had been avoiding. Joe was very anxious about the idea of this and so he did it in a graded way. Joe was asked to think about all of the things he was avoiding and rate how anxious each one made him feel. These were then placed on a list and Joe tackled them one at a time in order of difficulty. Before doing each one, we would use the session to prepare for the task by predicting what he thought might happen and how he would manage if it did. As a result of this preparation, Joe had the confidence to try things out as he had a detailed plan of what he would do to cope if he did become anxious. He began by going into supermarkets when they were quiet and when he coped well with this, he went in at busier times. Joe kept a record of his progress which also helped increase his confidence and spurred him on to try the next item on his list. When doing the early tasks, Joe continued to feel anxious but he learned that he could cope with anxiety and that it did not harm him. By repeatedly doing the tasks, he became more confident in his ability to manage anxiety and panic and the sensations gradually reduced.
Joe attended 8 sessions in total and had achieved all of his goals by the end of treatment.

Sir Thomas Cavendish (* 1555 in Trimley St. Martin bei Ipswich, Suffolk, England; † Februar 1592 auf dem Atlantik) war ein englischer Freibeuter und der dritte Weltumsegler.

Leben
Cavendish studierte von 1575 bis 1577 kurze Zeit am Corpus Christi College in Cambridge, ohne einen Abschluss zu machen. Im Jahr 1585 begleitete er Sir Richard Grenville nach Roanoke Island vor North Carolina.

Bald nach seiner Rückkehr nach England unternahm er eine aufwendige Nachahmung der großen Reise von Sir Francis Drake. Er rüstete aus eigenen Mitteln drei Schiffe mit 123 Mann Besatzung aus (Desiré, Hugh Gallant und Content), um am 26. Juli 1586 von Plymouth aus die Erde zu umsegeln. Am Mündungstrichter des Río Deseado ging Cavendish im Jahre 1586 an Land und nannte den Platz Port Desire (heute Puerto Deseado). 1587 erreichte er den Ort Puerto del Hambre (übers. Hafen des Hungers) in der Magellan-Straße, wo er die Reste der Siedlung und rund 300 verhungerte und erfrorene Siedler vorfand. Er nannte den Ort, in der englischen Übersetzung des spanischen Namens, Port Famine. Er segelte durch die Magellanstraße an Chile, Peru und Mexiko vorbei, wobei er 19 spanische Schiffe versenkte.

Später kaperte er an der Küste Kaliforniens die Santa Ana, eine 600 Tonnen schwere Galeone des Königs von Spanien, die große Werte mit sich führte, unter anderem 122.000 Spanische Dolaros (Solche Silberdollar-Münzen ließ Philipp II. von Spanien ab 1575 in Potosí im heutigen Bolivien prägen. Sie waren gleichgewichtig mit den niederländischen Philippusdaalders und wurden häufig von englischen Freibeutern (Kaperschiffen) erbeutet.). Über den Pazifik, das Kap der guten Hoffnung und St. Helena, das er am 5. Juni 1588 als erster Engländer betrat, erreichte ein Schiff, die Desiré (140 Tonnen), am 10. September 1588 wieder Plymouth.

1591 unternahm Cavendish eine neue Fahrt mit fünf Schiffen, musste jedoch in der Magellanstraße umkehren, da seine Mannschaft meuterte. Er starb während der Rückfahrt auf dem Atlantik.

Home Articles and FAQs UPDATED 24 SEPTEMBER: Your Guide to New Offences Under the Coronavirus Act 2020
UPDATED 24 SEPTEMBER: Your Guide to New Offences Under the Coronavirus Act 2020
UPDATE, 24 SEPTEMBER 2020: We've updated this article about coronavirus offences to reflect additional guidance from the Crown Prosecution Service on what counts as a "reasonable excuse" for being outside during the crisis. Please see the section titled 'Additional Guidance about "Reasonable Excuses" for Leaving Home' below.
The global coronavirus pandemic has led to immense changes in our society. From closed schools and workplaces to queuing to enter the supermarket, these changes have been brought about to protect lives and prevent our health services from being overwhelmed.
New realities mean new legislation. On 25 March 2020, the Coronavirus Act (2020) became law. This act contains numerous provisions touching every aspect of UK society. The police, courts, and the public are all affected, and all are trying to understand how the Coronavirus Act impacts their rights and responsibilities. In this article, I'll run through some sections of the Act, the new offences they define, and the penalties for those offences.
Before I begin, however, it's important to note that legislation existing prior to the Coronavirus Act still stands. For example, the prosecution against the Nottinghamshire man who spat at an emergency worker was brought under legislation for assault (in this case the relatively new offence of assaulting an emergency worker), not under the Coronavirus Act. Public order offences, offensive communication offences, and other criminal offences are all still in effect.
Now, let's look at what's in the Act.
Coronavirus Offences Related to Business Closures
The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Business Closure) (England) Regulations 2020 require many businesses to close in order to protect against the risks to public health presented by the coronavirus. These closures will be in force until a direction to re-open is given by the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State must keep the need for these closures under review every 28 days.
Breaches of the closure requirements will be punished by fines against companies, company directors and individuals.
Which Businesses Have to Close?
Following the relaxing of restrictions just a few months ago, the new Coronavirus regulations have once again tightened the rules in certain sectors.
For the hospitality sector, and other restricted services, businesses cannot trade between the hours of 10pm and 5am. This does not include food delivery services or drive-throughs.
It is now mandatory that all businesses follow a table service operation, and no customer can stand at the bar.
For cinemas, theatres and concert halls, performances or shows that start before 10pm are still able to finish, but must have started before 10pm.
These restrictions don't apply to motorway service stations.
Businesses which must close completely include any place where people gather in large groups. The regulations list these businesses:
Sexual entertainment venues
Tattoo parlours
Tanning shops
Nail bars
Indoor skating rinks
Indoor fitness studios, gyms, swimming pools or other indoor leisure centres
What New Powers Do Authorities Have Over Gatherings, Events or Premises?
Under Schedule 22 of the Coronavirus Act, authorities have new powers to impose restrictions on or force closure of gatherings, events and premises operated by any business or organisation.
They can:
Prohibit or impose restrictions on any gathering or holding of an event.
Close premises, restrict entry to premises, or impose restrictions on entry to the premises. Restrictions can include (but are not limited to):
The number of persons in the premises
The size of the premises
Purposes for which a person may enter the premises
Which facilities in the premises may remain in use
When the premises may be open
If you are convicted of failing to comply with business closure restrictions and you do not have a reasonable excuse, both your company and its directors (or individuals) can be fined.
What to Do About Coronavirus Offences Relating to Business Closures or Restrictions
It is tricky to define what constitutes a 'reasonable' excuse. All businesses and premises are different, so these issues will need to be considered on a case by case basis. If you want to continue trading at your business premises—for instance, to run a takeaway service from your bakery cafe—you should seek legal advice to help you avoid breaching the regulations.
If you receive a fixed penalty under the Coronavirus Act, you should take legal advice before paying it; you might have an appeal against the penalty. If you are to be taken to court, you should seek advice about whether you have a defence.
Food Safety Offences
You've seen the panic-buying of pasta and tinned vegetables at your local supermarket. Ensuring continuity of the food supply is one main consideration of the Coronavirus Act.
Section 25 of the act allows an appropriate authority to require information from companies in the food supply chain or from companies connected to companies in the food supply chain. In England the 'appropriate authority' can, in theory, mean any authority the government designates as 'appropriate', but in practice is likely to mean the Food Standards Agency. This information is intended to help those authorities determine whether the food supply is being, or in danger of being, interrupted.
Failure to provide this information is an offence under the Coronavirus Act. The penalty is a fine of up to one percent of the company's turnover as declared in its most recent accounting period.
What to Do About Food Safety Fines Under the Coronavirus Act
If your company receives a notice that a fine is being considered, you are entitled to make representations about the amount. You can—and should—do this through a solicitor.
You also have a right of appeal against the fixed penalty. This appeal can be made to the First-Tier Tribunal. Note that there are deadlines for making an appeal, and they are tight deadlines. Your company will need to act swiftly. Our firm can help you make your appeal on time.
Offences Related to Travellers Arriving to the UK
Air and rail travel has been greatly reduced during the coronavirus crisis. Because of the risk to public health posed by travellers, the coronavirus legislation gives authorities new powers when it comes to screening and detention.
Following the most recent updates to the Coronavirus regulations, any traveller who arrives back into the UK must now self-isolate for 14 days if they have returned from a country not listed as a 'travel corridor'.
What to Do About Coronavirus Offences Relating to International Travel Restrictions
If you give false information, refuse to comply with these regulations, or abscond from detention without permission, that is an offence which is punishable by a fine. It's also an offence to obstruct anyone else from complying with these regulations. Furthermore, you can be fined if you fail to ensure your children comply.
Each of these coronavirus offences can be defended if you have a 'reasonable excuse'. What constitutes a 'reasonable excuse' will change on a case-by-case basis, so seek legal advice as soon as you can.
'Lockdown' Offences
Following the most recent updates to Coronavirus restrictions on 22nd September 2020, failure to comply with the regulations put in place will lead to fines and fixed penalty notices.
'Local lockdown' restrictions have come into force for a number of areas up and down the country. As part of these updated regulations, people who live in the 'protected area' cannot gather with someone from another household in a private dwelling or garden.
This also means that for people who live outside of the protected area, they cannot visit another person's private home within that location. For residents that live within the protected area, they also not able to visit a private dwelling elsewhere in England.
The areas that are currently in a local lockdown in England are:
North East of England
When Can You Leave Your Home During the Coronavirus Lockdown?
Although supermarkets, shops and bars are still allowed to stay open, in some capacity, to the public, with these new restrictions come a new set of exceptions to the rules.
Following the relaxing of restrictions following the original lockdown period, people are now allowed to leave the house for the following activities:
for work, including voluntary, or charitable services
for education or training
to help someone who requires emergency assistance, including to ensure injury, illness and/or harm is avoided
facilitating a house move
when caring for a vulnerable person or parental contact with a child
and to fulfil childcare duties (this includes registered carers, and now following an additional update, grandparents and those with similar arrangements where people are in 'linked childcare households)
People can be exempt to the new restrictions through the following scenarios:
at their request, a person outside of another's household can be present during labour
attending a close family member's bedside if you believe they are dying, and if no one else is available
or if you are fulfilling a legal obligation
New restrictions and rules are being imposed on a regular basis, so it's best to stay up to date with restrictions via the government website.
Additional Guidance about 'Reasonable Excuses' for Leaving Home
Lockdown began on 23 March 2020. During the initial lockdown period, there were many incidences of confusion about 'reasonable excuses' for leaving home. Both the public and the police experienced this confusion, with particular confusion around what constitutes 'essential' shopping during the coronavirus emergency. On Thursday, 16 April, the Crown Prosecution Service issued some clarification about what is a 'reasonable excuse', and the College of Policing helpfully published a summary of that advice on their website. You can read that advice in full here, but a few key points:
It is perfectly acceptable to continue to buy chocolate, alcohol, and other 'luxury' items from the supermarkets if they are available
You can drive in your car to a park or other area if you wish to exercise there, but you should spend more time exercising than you do driving
You can stop to rest during exercise or while walking to and from the shop, but you should not take a short walk just to sit in the park for an extended period
You can buy DIY products to repair or maintain parts of your home, but you cannot buy them to begin a new renovation project
If you need to move house for several days to allow for a 'cooling off' following arguments at your primary residence, you may do so
You may also attend your garden allotment if you have one
With the lockdown now confirmed to continue for at least another three weeks, there is likely to be additional clarification of what a 'reasonable excuse' for leaving home looks like.
10 May 'Lockdown Easing' Updates
On Sunday, 10 May, the Prime Minister released an address in which he attempted to lay out a phased plan for easing the lockdown as the pandemic subsides, along with modifications to the current lockdown which will take place from Wednesday, 13 May.
He issued a few clarifications around outdoor exercise and leisure. These were:
People can in fact leave the house multiple times per day to take exercise if they wish (this was always the case, but now it's made explicit).
People can play sports with other members of their household, sunbathe with other members of their household, and picnic with other members of their household.
He also stated that people, particularly those in construction and manufacturing, "should go to work if you can't work from home," "avoid public transport" if they do travel to work, and that new guidelines for businesses would be forthcoming.
What Are the Penalties for Coronavirus Offences Against 'Lockdown' Regulations?
As of 10 May 2020, breaching the 'lockdown' regulations results in a fine of £100 for first-time offences. Offenders can reduce the fine to £50 if they pay within 14 days.
The fine will double with every subsequent offence—£200 for the second, £300 for the third, and so on, up to a maximum of £3,200.
What to Do About Coronavirus Offences
Whether or not you have a reasonable excuse to leave your home is for a court to decide. In order for you to be convicted, the court would have to determine:
If you did it
If what you did contravened the regulations
If it was reasonably necessary for you to contravene the regulations
You can seek legal advice to help you determine whether you have a reasonable excuse if faced with a coronavirus offence.
More Changes, More Disruption, More Confusion Ahead
The Coronavirus Act is just over ten days old as I write this. It was necessary for government to take action in this crisis, and legislation was a necessary part of that action. However, legislate in haste, repent at leisure.
The restrictions on businesses and people and the powers granted to authorities are all vague, subject to interpretation, and incredibly complicated. That is to be expected, given that the nature of this crisis requires curtailment of personal freedoms and rights at the expense of public safety at a level not seen in this country since the Second World War.
And the consequences of the Coronavirus Act have the potential to become even more complicated as the act is reviewed and expanded, or as different sections come into force.
For example, Schedule 21 of the act is not yet in force. This section outlines new powers of detention of 'potentially infectious persons'. These powers are delegated to 'public health officers'. A 'public health officer' can include anyone designated as such by the government, and they can exercise these powers 'in the interests of that person, the protection of others, or the maintenance of public health'—an extremely broad remit.
As with other areas of the coronavirus offence laws, breaches are punishable with a fine—unless the person charged with a breach has a 'reasonable excuse'. Which, again, is subject to broad interpretation.
One outcome is very likely: as the emergency period continues, many people may find they are faced with a legal proceeding arising from the Coronavirus Act. It's important to take legal advice from a solicitor who is as well-informed about these new laws as possible. If you or your business faces a fine or penalty for a Coronavirus Act-related offence, get in touch. We can help.
