In Edwards v. Maxwell, 215 So.3d 616 (Fla. 1st DCA March 31, 2017), a beneficiary of three irrevocable trusts moved to set aside his father's adoption of a child, who became a qualified beneficiary of the trust as a result of the adoption. The First District Court of Appeals held that the original beneficiary was not entitled to notice of the adoption and did not have standing to set aside the adoption because the trusts were to be distributed in the complete discretion of the trustees, and therefore he did not have a direct, financial, and immediate interest in the trusts.
Ryan Maxwell, the biological son of John Adam Edwards, was the beneficiary of three irrevocable trusts created by his grandparents for their descendants. The trusts provide that the trustees have complete discretion to determine how and to whom distributions can be made. In 2004, Edwards adopted Brindley Kuiper, adding him as a qualified beneficiary of the trusts. Over the next years, Kuiper received thousands of dollars in distributions from the trusts. Maxwell, who claimed he was unaware of the adoption, filed a motion in 2014 to set aside the final judgement of adoption, alleging that it was fraudulent and should be vacated. Further, he argued that the adoption should be vacated because he did not receive notice of the adoption, which he claims he was entitled to as a qualified beneficiary of the trusts. The trial court vacated the judgement of adoption, and Edwards and Kuiper appealed.
The First District Court of Appeals relied upon the Florida Supreme Court's decision in Stefanos v. Rivera-Berrios, 673 So.2d 12 (Fla. 1996), which was later codified in 2006 under Fla. Stat. 63.182(2)(a) under the Florida Adoption Act. Under Stefanos and the Florida Adoption Act, a third party must show "a direct, financial, and immediate interest in an adoption to be entitled to notice, or to have legal standing to vacate an adoption order." Edwards, 215 So.3d at 618. The Court in Stefanos held that such interest shall be more than a mere contingent or indirect interest.
In this case, the First District Court of Appeals held that Maxwell did not possess a direct, financial, and immediate interest in the trusts because he had no direct or immediate right to the trust funds. The trustees had complete discretion over how and to whom distributions were made, making Maxwell's interest as a beneficiary contingent. Unlike in Rickard v. McKesson, 774 So.2d 838 (Fla. 4th DCA 2000), where a contingent beneficiary was completely divested of her interest in a trust and was entitled to notice of an adoption proceeding, Maxwell retained his contingent interest. As such, the court reversed the trial court's decision and held that Maxwell did not have a right to receive notice of the adoption and did not have standing to vacate the final judgement of adoption.
The Takeaway?
The Edwards case makes clear that a contingent beneficiary of a completely discretionary trust does not have the right to be notified of a fellow qualified beneficiary's adoption and does not have standing to challenge the adoption because there is no direct, financial, or immediate interest at stake. However, it is important to keep in mind that this case could have had a very different outcome with a non-discretionary trust, as shown by the Rickard case.

GOMORY - FRANCE
Destruction & Misery - 2004 - Snakebite
S= NAJA-ATRA
G= INCERTAESEDIS
B= INCERTAESEDIS
D= NAJA-ATRA
Hailing from the south of France, the two proponents of Gomory had been together since 1994 playing brutal heavy metal. The two crystallized Gomory in 2001. The band's debut recording was ostensibly made available after Snakebite Production persuaded the core duo to release an album. The CD was recorded at Winterized Studio. The two main members used session players for live shows.
The band proclaimed its debut album to be the first of a concept to be told in six chapters.
GOMORY - DESTRUCTION & MISERY - SNAKEBITE
Gomory is a total underground entity playing death metal out of the south of France. As such, not many people would have heard of the band. The band's main inspiration, given the songs on this debut, should be Deicide and Behemoth. The music is mostly fast and smooth. The core duo places a value on dynamics and swift movement. Additionally, the band takes care to mix melody with brutality. Taken as a whole it is a fine combination and one that works for the band's rhythmic and percussive orientation. Worthy of note is the song Power Is Illusion with its Death-like riff. - Ali "The Metallian"

During July, Equilibrium held our inaugural studio conference in the picturesque surrounds of the southern highlands. We spent two nights at the beautiful 'Summerlees Cottage' near Bowral. In this stunning part of country NSW we were struck by the wintry beauty of the place, the feeling of hibernation and anticipation.
Key themes for the conference were professional development, self-reflection, exploration and creating shared experiences to build even stronger foundations for our studio. Small teams don't often get a chance to focus on group dynamics, and design studios especially prioritise client work—quite rightly. That being said, sometimes it is equally valuable for the studio to work on professional development for the benefit of both employees and clients.
On the first evening, we kicked off with some warm-up design aerobics, aimed at easing us into the conference and facilitating an atmosphere of exploration, discovery and teamwork. The three exercises included unleashing our hybrid monster mascot Dave, inventing a complex role play game in 12 minutes, and creating sartorial masterpieces from nothing more than newspaper and tape.
Day Two began on a slightly more serious note with our professional development session. This program was tailored specifically for Equilibrium by Positioned For Choice, and forced a fascinating discussion around individual and team ways of working, motivations and habits.
The second session for the day focused on Bec's PhD and her research in design thinking—a refresher course on the theories and background underpinning her work. The PhD greatly informs Equilibrium's practice and is a huge part of our ethos and workflow. Being at the forefront of academic research and seeing it come to life in the projects we have in the studio is both rewarding and interesting for us as visual communicators. It also helps us improve the way we work with clients and creates a richer experience for all the stakeholders involved in the projects.
After lunch, we launched into Tom's session, which was a dialogue around our successes, mistakes and inspiration sources. We were required to share our favourite song, building and photograph, as well as our best and worst design projects.
This was an exercise to elicit style mapping and personal taste and get us to articulate our decisions about the things we chose. Interestingly, when playing each other's favourite songs all of us became very self-conscious! The session helped us share our personal motivations and engage in self-reflection on our successes and failures.
For the last session on Saturday, Georgia devised a winding-down activity that was designed to create a shared experience through imaginative play, problem solving and teamwork. Being able to negotiate the real and imaginary simultaneously and draw parallels between them is one of the key ways that creative play exercises the mind. So, with that in mind, we built a fort—with furniture, sheets, pillows and fairy lights. After nailing that exercise in about 15 minutes flat, we then wrote "finish the last sentence" stories inspired by various props we had brought into the fort. Hilarity obviously ensued, a good end to an interesting and inspiring day.

Barron Poised for a Breakout
RamWraith
A year ago around this time, Alex Barron was at home in Orangeburg, S.C., awaiting a contract offer from the Rams that would meet he and his agent's desires.
This year, though, things are much different for Barron. After a 16-day holdout that was trumped among first-rounders only by Chicago running back Cedric Benson, Barron reported to St. Louis on Aug. 11, 2005.
For all intents and purposes, Barron is actually participating in his first professional training camp.
"To tell you the truth, when I got here last year they had already played the Bears and camp was about over with," Barron said. "This is actually like my first camp. It's all right. It's something everybody has to go through every year to get ready for the season."
The time Barron missed last season probably cost him a shot at being the starter at right tackle for the entirety of his rookie season. Soon after the Rams used the 19th pick in the draft on Barron, he was declared the starter by coach Mike Martz.
But Barron fell behind during the holdout as he initially had trouble switching to the right side after playing a lot of left tackle at Florida State. He also was way behind on the playbook because of all the missed installation periods. So, Barron was declared inactive for the first two games of the regular season.
"It was kind of difficult," Barron said. "I was learning the plays, learning the system and coming from college (adjusting) to the speed of the game and things like that."
Finally, on Sept. 25 against Tennessee, Barron got his first action, replacing a struggling Blaine Saipaia at right tackle. Barron manhandled Titans' defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch repeatedly and recovered a key fumble in the fourth quarter. He had staked his claim to a starting job he would not relinquish the rest of the season were it not for a hand injury.
Barron went on to start 11 games, playing in 12 and acquitted himself well against the likes of the Giants defensive end Michael Strahan. Still, Barron was not content with his debut season.
"You can't really ever be satisfied," Barron said. "As a team, we had some different things goal wise and individual. You can never be satisfied you just look to the next year to get better."
For Barron, one aspect of getting better meant working diligently in the offseason to improve his physical stature. He played last season in the 315-320 pound range, but estimates that he somewhere below 310 pounds right now. In the opening days of training camp, Barron has looked slimmer yet stronger.
To get to the level that he wants, though, the real task for Barron will be improving on the mental aspects of the game. Silly errors plagued Barron as a rookie and it's something he and coach Scott Linehan hope to improve this year.
"He has shown he is still a young player with the mistakes he makes more pre-snap than post-snap," Linehan said. "He still has those issues. I'm not harping on the negative, but he's got to grow up. You have to make great strides from your rookie year to your second year."
Barron committed 16 penalties in his 12 appearances last season with nine false starts. In one particularly bothersome sequence against Jacksonville on Oct. 30, Barron committed an illegal use of the hands penalty, an illegal touching penalty and a false start on three consecutive plays. He finished that game with four total penalties, costing the Rams 25 yards of field position.
Barron believes if he can cut out those kinds of mistakes, he can become the type of bookend to left tackle Orlando Pace that will be able to shut down opponents' pass rush.
"I believe if you get the mental aspect of the game down, everything else will come to you," Barron said. "I think that's kind of a big deal. Everybody when you get to the next level is bigger and faster and things like that. That's everywhere. From what I have seen, the mental aspect of the game takes over so much from college."
Linehan said before camp he expects plenty of competition on the interior of the line. In other words, everything is set at the tackle positions with Pace and Barron.
Barron said he doesn't have a set weight for himself, believing he can play anywhere from 300 pounds to 330 pounds. But Linehan has a more ideal weight for his prized young tackle.
"The tackle position requires a lot of anticipation and being smart and knowing how to set certain players so there are a lot of the tricks of the trade you have to learn," Linehan said. "I think 310ish is fine with his range and ability to have the bulk to block the run game, but have the speed to go out in space like Orlando does and block the speed rush. People will flip ends on you and put guys on you. He's making good progress."

Re: Barron Poised for a Breakout
What a bright spot in an otherwise dismal season last year. I remember there was talk that Barron would have problems because he was too "meek or "timid". He quickly dispelled that. Ask Strahan. Its hard to believe he performed as well as he did without any training camp. With Incognito doing well beside Pace, If Terrell can get it together and play more than a few downs without getting gassed, He would be a good fit beside Barron. Next years draft may bring us a Center.
Barron Learning on the Job
by RamWraith
As Orlando Pace addressed the media after being named to his seventh consecutive Pro Bowl on Wednesday, he joked about bringing rookie right tackle and fellow bookend Alex Barron with him to Hawaii to get a taste of the proceedings.
Every one got a little chuckle out of the joke, with the possible exception of Barron. By most accounts, though, maybe Barron should lobby for a trip just to get used to the atmosphere.
"I think he's going to be spectacular," interim coach Joe Vitt said. "I really do. He's athletic. I think when he has a whole offseason in the weight room with power lifts and getting stronger, I think he's going to be a premier tackle. I really do."
In other words, it might not be long before Barron joins Pace on the annual journey to Hawaii for the Pro Bowl. Barron probably isn't ready for all of that, but he might not be far off.
Considering the amount of things Barron has dealt with as a rookie, he might be well on his way to a long and prolific NFL career. Nary a rookie in the league has an easy first season. There are always speed bumps along the way such as adjusting to the speed of the NFL, learning proper techniques and handling the sudden fame and money that go with being in the league.
Barron learned all he needed to know about the business side early on. After the Rams chose him with the 19th pick of the first round, Barron was held out of training camp for most of the first month.
Even before Barron had signed his name to a contract he had struggled mightily in the team's mini camp. He was trying to learn the right side and seemed overwhelmed by the playbook.
After arriving at camp, Barron worked to get better, but was at a distinct disadvantage because he wasn't used to working exclusive on the right side and his absence had rankled the coaching staff. Barron fell on the depth chart behind the likes of Rex Tucker, among others.
Tucker won the job coming out of camp and it seemed that Barron would be on the bench learning for most of the year with coach Mike Martz going so far as to say that would be a good thing.
Even when Tucker suffered a calf injury against the *****, Barron remained on the left side and inactive for games.
Blaine Saipaia handled the right tackle job against Arizona and Tennessee, but because of the injuries on the line, Barron finally started to get worked in on the right side in the week leading up to the game against the Titans in week three.
Barron was active for the first time that week and with Saipaia struggling, he got his chance late in the third quarter. Barron wasted no time asserting himself, rag dolling defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch on his second play and coming up with a huge fumble recovery soon after.
With that...
Barron Begins Crash Course
While the lights were out at Rams Park this weekend because of a power failure, a trio of offensive line instructors was spending its time trying to help the lights come on in the head of rookie tackle Alex Barron.
As most Rams enjoyed their Saturday afternoon off after their win against Chicago on Friday night, the offensive line's newest arrival was getting acquainted with his new coaching staff.
No other players were present at Rams Park as offensive line coaches John Matsko and John Benton and Hall of Fame tackle Jackie Slater gave Barron a crash course in everything from technique to the offense to foot work.
For the better part of the day, Matsko, Benton and Slater took turns drilling Barron on different things. Matsko did an hour on pass protections, Benton handled run blocking and Slater drilled technique. Then, the trio went through it again. It was a quick, tireless introduction to training camp.
"They did a great job working with me this weekend," Barron said. "The other guys were off. I just got a little extra work in during the days. It helped out a great bit. It caught me up to some of the things that had been going on in camp, some new plays, different techniques and stuff."
Barron's work was cut short by a loss of electricity that occurred around 4 p.m. Saturday. But by that time, Barron had already dived in head first. It brought the teaching session to an abrupt halt, but it was Barron's first crack at working out in St. Louis after a two-week holdout.
Barron continued the workouts through the weekend, but he still has a ways to go. Barron played left and right tackle at Florida State, but it was more of a strongside versus weakside type of change than making the permanent move to the right side. That seemed to give him an advantage coming in, but Matsko said it is natural for Barron to be uncomfortable when he is so used to being the left tackle.
"I like him if he has got a chip on his shoulder," Matsko said. "Mentally, he was very sharp when he was here. The challenge that he had came when he was on the right side was being dominant with the left hand when he was in pass protection."
That all goes back to technique and that was an area Barron struggled with at the team's mini-camp in June. Barron looked somewhat lost on the right side and got beaten repeatedly in pass rush drills. After each practice, Barron looked worn down and tired.
"I think it might have had something to do with the combination of being in the situations he was in and working with the ones and the multitude of plays he was trying learn and then trying to master the technique," Slater said. "I think it was the combination of all of that more than anything else."
But the rookie was much improved in his first practice Monday morning. Working at his more natural left tackle spot, Barron held his own in the morning workout...
The Barron Situation is a Nonsense Magnet
Sometimes, I wonder why I even bother reading the opinons of fans and sportwriters.
Take the Alex Barron situation. Yes, it would have been better if he had looked more prepared at mini-camp. Yes, it would have been better if he had signed before the start of training camp.
But the conclusions that people are asserting based upon what has occurred are just plain nonsense.
The latest one, which many fans and the great Blarney Miklasz have uttered, is "he won't be ready to contribute until 2006."
Are you kidding me? What if Barron had missed mini-camp due to a death in the family, and then missed the first two weeks of training camp due to some minor injury. Are you telling me that people would now be saying that Barron has no chance of contributing in 2005? Please.
If Barron can't contribute this year, it won't be because he missed two weeks of training camp - it will be because he's simply not capable (and nobody, not even Mike Martz and Alex Barron, know if he is capable at this point).
The other great "nonsense" argument is - "it will be a big adjustment moving to RT." First of all, Barron played quite a bit of RT at FSU. Second of all, in most cases, lining up at RT means that you are usually not facing the best pass rusher on the other team. Finally, the RT is more likely to get help from a TE than the LT.
Again, this stuff is all nonsense. Barron will get into some games in the preseason, and we'll all have a better idea of whether his talent (which is undeniable) will override his lack of experience and underdeveloped technique.
My bet is that it will, and that he'll be starting by week 5 or 6. But I am just guessing - just like everyone else!
Offensive lineman Alex Barron is unusually quick
By Bill Coats
Sunday, Sep. 24 2006
Florida State tailback Leon Washington thought he was alone as he sprinted
toward the end zone two Octobers ago against Syracuse. Then he glanced to his
side and saw teammate Alex Barron cruising stride for stride with him.
"I'm telling you, you could line him up at running back," an incredulous
Washington told reporters later.
A 6-foot-7, 315-pound running back would be quite a site. Anyway, the Rams
prefer to keep Barron at right tackle, where he has been a starter since the
fourth game of his rookie season last year.
For the second half of Sunday's game in San Francisco and during most of this
past week in practice, Barron and right guard Adam Timmerman were the only
familiar faces on a patched-together offensive line.
At center, Richie Incognito has replaced Andy McCollum, who suffered a
season-ending knee injury in the opener, with newcomer Adam Goldberg at left
guard and first-year Ram Todd Steussie at left tackle in place of Orlando Pace,
who suffered a concussion late in the second period vs. the *****.
Barron called his elder-statesman status "kind of funny. This time last year, I
was just chilling on the sidelines, just hanging, watching the team."
The team's first-round draft pick, Barron missed 19 days of training camp
before signing a five-year, $9.2 million deal. He was on the inactive list for
the first two games while he hustled to gain at least a minimal understanding
of the offense. Barron suited up for the third game, Sept. 25 vs. Tennessee,
and with starter Blaine Saipaia struggling, was tossed into the fray late in
the third quarter. On his first NFL snap, Barron flattened Titans defensive end
Kyle Vanden Bosch.
Barron started 11 of the final 13 games; he missed two with a thumb injury that
required surgery. The results generally were positive, but hardly overwhelming.
"He got into the system kind of under fire," said offensive line coach Paul
Boudreau, a member of new coach Scott Linehan's staff. "He really didn't
understand the whole picture."
Two games into his second season, "I'm feeling a little bit more comfortable,"
Barron reported.
"He's doing the things you want to improve on from your first year to your
second," Linehan said. "He's a very good pass protector, and his run-blocking
is better. He's progressing very well."
Barron's athleticism belies his position -- he's no "hog." At Florida State's
pro day, Barron impressed the scouts with his performance, which included a
4.82-second 40 and...
It's time for Barron to blossom
by eldfan
When he'd leave the modest ranch house on Hillcrest Avenue in Orangeburg, S.C., young Alex Barron usually was headed for the outdoor basketball court nearby.
It was — and still is — his favorite sport. He was good at it, too.
Good enough to average a double-double at Wilkinson High, good enough to be invited to walk on at Florida State, and good enough, the 6-foot-7, 302-pound Barron insists, to have made a splash in college, and possibly the NBA. MORE RAMS
"Truth be told, I think I would've been OK," he said. "I'm not here to say I would've been an all-star for 10 years or anything like that. But I know I'd have done pretty good in college."
After a pause, Barron added softly, "But that's not the road I chose."
In reality, the road chose him. It's led him to a new position — he's the Rams' first new full-time left tackle since 1997 — at the best possible time. Barron, 26, is in the final season of the original five-year, $9.2 million deal he signed in 2005, when the Rams took him in the first round of the draft.
If his play this season suggests that he could rank among the league's top linemen, Barron, who became the Rams' first-team right tackle in his rookie season, stands to cash in — big time. Left tackles, charged with protecting a righthanded quarterback's blind side, are among the game's most valued, and best-compensated, performers.
"He's talented, and he deserves it," his kid sister, Lasaundra, insisted. Barron doesn't feel entitled, though.
"I try not to put any added pressure just because of what year it is for me," he said. "But I'm not going to lie and say I haven't thought about it. Why wouldn't I want to be in the conversation with the top tackles in the league? That'd be stupid."
They still talk about "the play" in Orangeburg, a quiet, working-class hamlet of about 12,500 near the center of the state. The basketball fieldhouse at Wilkinson High was packed as the Bruins took on archrival Irmo.
A teammate missed a free throw, and Barron soared after the loose ball. Here's how Barron described what happened next to The State, the newspaper of Columbia, S.C.: "I got the rebound, kind of squirmed and went up and let it go. I kind of turned around, so it was almost like a 360, but not all in the air."
The climax was a rim-rattling slam dunk that sent the crowd into a frenzy. "The place exploded. They about took the roof off," said former coach Geb Runager, who was in the stands.
Barron's father, also named Alex (they have different middle names), was Wilkinson's coach. "It was just unreal," he said. "I looked at my assistant coach and said, 'He could've been doing that all along.' ...
"I just thought he pretty...

Takamatsu drags Hiroshi out to the hostess clubs and skyscraper offices of Tokyo in search of the killer. She's trying to escape Japan for a new life by playing a high-stakes game of insider information. To find her, Hiroshi goes deeper and deeper into Tokyo's intricate, ominous market for the most expensive real estate in the world.
In a megalopolis of 40 million people, finding one woman is nearly impossible. If he can't find her, more businessmen will die, she'll flee the country and the male-dominated, cutthroat world of buying and selling property will never change.
After years in America and lost in neat, clean spreadsheets, Hiroshi confronts the stark realities of the biggest city in the world, where inside information can travel in a flash from the top investment firms to the bottom of the working world, where street-level punks and teenage hostesses sell their souls for a small cut of high-profit land deals.

EVANS v. THE STATE.
SOGNIER, Judge.
D.U.I. Hall State Court. Before Judge Gosselin.
Randall Nelson Evans appeals from his conviction of driving under the influence of alcohol.
In his sole enumeration of error, appellant contends the trial court erred by denying his motion to suppress the results of a field sobriety test and subsequent intoximeter test because he was stopped by police at a roadblock which did not comply with requirements set forth in State v. Golden, 171 Ga. App. 27 (318 SE2d 693) (1984). We do not agree.
In Delaware v. Prouse, 440 U. S. 648 (99 SC 1391, 59 LE2d 660) (1979), "the United States Supreme Court held that patrolmen may not stop motorists at random to inspect their driver's licenses and vehicle registration papers, absent some specific, articulable suspicion of wrongdoing. It is clear, however, that the holding in Prouse was not intended as a prohibition against the utilization of highway roadblocks to conduct such inspections, for the Supreme Court specifically indicated in that opinion that roadblocks could be considered a valid alternative to random vehicle stops. [Cit.]" Golden, supra at 29 (2). We approved the use of a roadblock in Golden after considering several factors, finding that a brief stop was reasonable and violated no Fourth Amendment rights. Id. at 29-30 (2). The factors considered in Golden were that the decision to implement the roadblock was made by supervisory personnel rather than by the officers in the field; all vehicles were stopped, leaving no discretion to the officers as to which vehicles to stop; the delay experienced by passing motorists was minimal; the operation was well identified as a police checkpoint; and the "screening" officer's training and experience were sufficient to qualify him to make an initial determination as to which motorists should be given field tests for intoxication. Id.
We agree with the trial court that in the case sub judice, looking at the totality of the circumstances surrounding the roadblock, the factors considered in Golden were satisfied. Although the idea of the roadblock was initiated by the field officers, it was done with the approval of their supervisor and in accord with a continuing practice of the Gainesville Police Department; all passing vehicles were stopped; the delay to passing motorists was minimal; the roadblock was set up in a well lit area by uniformed officers, and patrol cars were stationed on both sides of the road and on the median with blue lights flashing, making the roadblock highly visible to approaching motorists; and the "screening" officer was sufficiently trained to enable him to make a determination as to which motorists should be asked to take the field sobriety tests.
Accordingly, the brief detention of appellant at the roadblock did not violate appellant's Fourth Amendment rights, and the trial court did not err by denying appellant's motion to suppress.

Ah, to be a rebel. Rebelliousness can be quite an asset, so long as the "volume" is tweaked just right. This pertains to all sorts of people about all sorts of issues, but I'd like to correlate rebelliousness between Tweens and Writers specifically. Smaller children often buck the system, but Tweens are the real deal when it comes to clashing with what is proper or appropriate or, OMG, "totes" (totally) lame. Older teens are prone to twisting the volume of clashing even higher, which is why I think Tweens might have hit the perfect rebel target. Just enough rebellion and new ideas sprout; adults are reminded of their own inner zest; wearing mismatched socks, sliding down the banister or blaring the newest single might make us "old-ish" people raise eyebrows, but these behaviors are usually innocent expressions that give voice and movement to a soaring mind.
Writers can learn a few things from Tweens. A touch of rebelliousness gives us the freedom to explore storylines that veer away from or give twists to worn out trends. Unique is always "in" within a certain volume range. Tweak your expression too high, and you risk losing readers unable to connect in a solid way to your storyline. Even balloons need tethers, or else they end up withering somewhere in the clouds. Keep your volume flat or too low, and you risk another version of the same-old-same-old that in a word: Bores. Take it from Tweens, freshen and stretch trends in new ways, add crunch to that old burrito with some zesty potato chips or fried mozzarella, work with themes readers can connect to, but add flavors and textures not yet tried. Do that and you are sure to be "tope" (tight & dope–which I'm told is a really good thing).
Great post Christina! I think you hit the nail on the head with this one! Here's wishing you many sales. Your story sounds like a great read.
I want to be tope! 🙂 Very good reminder to never let things get too dull. Thanks, Christina!
Totally tope post, Christina! Short and to the point. Wishing you all the best with your upcoming release, and in all your publishing endeavors! Cheers!
Fantastic point. I have tweens at home, and for years I taught high school freshman. Many people don't like dealing with kids at that age, but I love them. They are smart enough to get really creative, but still haven't rejected parents and teachers as complete idiots. It's a great time to discover new things and channel new talents.
I love "tope" and my favorite line is, "Even balloons need tethers, or else they end up withering somewhere in the clouds." Very cool post, Christina!

Driverless grocery store startup Robomart plans to launch a pilot program in Santa Clara, California this fall, CEO Ali Ahmed has informed VentureBeat.
Robomart introduced its concept of a store on wheels at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January, but it offered the first glimpse of its driverless vehicle just a few days ago in a video shot at the company's facility in Alameda, California, where it is currently conducting tests.
Robomart is in early talks with Santa Clara and Alameda to begin tests there this fall.
The California Department of Motor Vehicles released rules for obtaining an autonomous driving permit last month, but Robomart doesn't plan to get one because its vehicles are teleoperated by people, not controlled by an autonomous driving system, Ahmed said.
In doing so, Robomart follows a similar approach to Phantom, another startup putting teleoperated vehicles on California roads.
"The robomarts will be teleoperated for the duration of the pilots. We've been in discussions with the DMV and don't require a driverless permit to operate, as they will be teleoperated," Ahmed told VentureBeat in an email.
The initial pilot program will deploy six Robomart driverless vehicles that carry things like fruits and vegetables as well as other perishable items, as well as confectionery items like snacks and candy.
Users will summon Robomart vehicles with a smartphone app. A cashless payment system driven by Stripe and Robomart's RFID and computer vision technology handles payment.
That means customers can grab what they want and walk away.
VentureBeat has reached out to the city of Santa Clara for comment, and this story will be updated should we hear back from city officials.

The European Union is striving to reduce traffic-related CO2 emissions. Accordingly, it has issued limit values & a new EU implementing regulation for permissible CO2 emissions for vehicles – the EU 2021/392 implementing regulation.

Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/392 – Data protection and the CO2 data transfer
25. October 2021 /in Uncategorized /by Jan Schwemler
One of the special challenges of a data protection officer is to be allowed to deal with what at first glance appear to be non-technical issues directly from practice. The Implementing Regulation EU 2021/392 on the monitoring and reporting of data on CO2 emissions from passenger cars and light commercial vehicles certainly falls into this area.

Belgian court rules: Encryption as an additional measure when exporting data
23. September 2021 /in Uncategorized /by Jan Schwemler
The Belgian Council of State ruled on August 19, 2021 (case number 251.378) that encryption of data during data export can be an appropriate measure to ensure an adequate level of data protection. Golem.de reported on this on Sept. 17, 2021, and gdprhub.eu also dealt with it. The Belgian ruling now confirms the view of many data protection experts that encryption can be used under certain conditions to export data to insecure third countries in compliance with the law. This question had been hotly debated since the ECJ's Schrems II ruling.

International Data Transfers – Scope of the New Standard Contractual Clauses
The data processing operations, which are becoming more and more complex as a result of globalization, are a challenge for many companies, not least in terms of data protection law. The fact that data processing does not take place centrally, but often takes place internationally scattered in a transmission chain, requires a close look at the possibilities for legitimation. It is therefore necessary to take a closer look at the new standard contractual clauses and what options they offer. In the following article, the topic of the so-called onward transfer of personal data between processors outside the EU is to be examined. In contrast to transmission, further transmission means the transfer of data from one processor to another processor.

Italian boat manufacturer Nautivela have signed the contract to supply equipment for the ISAF World Sailing Games 2006, taking place at Lake Neusiedl, Austria from 10-20 May. Around 1,000 sailors are expected at the event coming from around 70 nations with Nautivela supplying boats for the 470 and team racing events.
The signing of the contract with Nautivela means 95 boats for three disciplines have been secured. This includes 40 470s for the men's two person dinghy and 30 for the women's two person dinghy events. Nautivela 420s will also be used as equipment for the Team Racing event.
Nautivela has a long lived and proven record as a boat supplier to major events and has a long-term partnership with ISAF. Most recently Nautivela supplied the 420s for the 2005 Volvo Youth Sailing ISAF World Championship in Busan, Korea and they also supplied the 470s used at the last ISAF World Sailing Games in Marseille, France in 2002. 'The partnership with the experienced Nautivela team will guarantee the highest possible quality standard,' remarked Koloman WATZEK, the general manager of the World Sailing Games.
In March 2005, OeSV-Sports Director Georg FUNDAK and Helmut CZASNY, World Sailing Games Race Manager visited the Italian manufacturer and arranged with Nautivela's director Paolo PORTIGLIA (ITA) the highest quality criteria for the provided equipment so all competitors of the World Sailing Games can be sure to sail on equal highest standard boats. 'Lake Neusiedl is a great venue for the 470's, we have seen a great European championship 1993 and the unior World Championship 2003 there. I am proud that our boats were selected for the World Sailing Games 2006,' commented PORTIGLIA.
Nautivela are licensed by ISAF to build the 470, 420, Yngling and Europe.
Of the ten events at the World Sailing Games, all have equipment supplied except the skiff event. This ensures a competition in which success is won only through the sailors' skill.
The contract for the supplied equipment for the Men's Multihull event, the Hobie Tiger, was signed back in March.

Q: Recommendation on how to create a dynamic web app using asp.net and MVC I am wondering how to proceed on a project where I have to create an UI that shows kendo grids based on a selected ProductionLine.  I want to create a dropdown in the nav bar on top that selects a ProductionLine and is persistent across pages but I am unsure how to do this.
I am currently working on having all the kendo be able to filter by foreign key ProductionLines but I want to go a step further and transfer between different views without having to refilter.


The latest celebrity craze is… tequila?
Home / Branding / The latest celebrity craze is… tequila?
A few weeks ago, I was sitting at Tumbleweed's bar about to order a margarita when I noticed a few names in the liquor section I've never seen before. No, I'm not talking about Jose Cuervo or Don Eduardo – try George Clooney and Justin Timberlake! These guys are not only gorgeous, rich, talented, world travelers, but they also seem to fit in time for launching their own brands. These days, wine and spirits are the biggest brand moneymakers, and the latest celebrity craze comes in the form of a beverage near and dear to my heart – tequila.
Celebrities and spirits seem like a win-win proposition, and a great number of them have tested their hand at the branding game, for example take, P. Diddy's and Ciroc Vodka and Toby Keith's Wild Shot Mezcal.
While many Hollywood celebs are taking an old school approach and backing wine labels, only a select few celebs have taken the trendier, less traveled path of tequila. This ever-expanding group includes rockers Carlos Santana (Casa Noble) and Motley Crue's Vince Neil (Tres Rios), country star Toby Keith (Wild Shot) and Justin Timberlake (901 Silver). This year, George Clooney and nightlife entrepreneur Rande Gerber debuted Casamigos, named for Clooney's and Gerber's adjacent properties in Cabo San Lucas. Even Shaquille O'Neal and P. Diddy are rumored to have interest in investing in a tequila brand. As you can tell, celebrity interest in tequila is at a high and so are profits: In the U.S., the biggest market, it's a multibillion-dollar business.
But celebs like Clooney and Timberlake aren't the first to surprise us with good taste in alcohol, and we're sure they won't be the last.
Do you think if you put a celeb's face on anything and you might be able to sell the product a bit more? Or does it take a true expert and connoisseur to rule the category?

A family of six living in a tiny council flat with ONE bedroom have pleaded for help to ease their overcrowding.
Natalina Tamburro and her partner Stuart Thomas are both working, claim no benefits, and have lived in MK all their lives.
They moved into the tiny first floor Netherfield flat 10 years ago. But as their family grew, what started out as a cosy nest has turned into a home so crowded it is a health hazard, said 28-year-old Natalina.
"We are literally living on top of each other. The three older children are squashed into one bedroom, with two of them sleeping top to tail in one single bed.
"Stuart and I sleep on a bed settee in the living room, which is also a kitchen, with the baby in a travel cot squeezed in beside us.
Natalina,a part-time sales assistant, and 30-year-old scaffold worker Stuart, earn a combined weekly wage of around £400 .
"Private rented houses are out of our price range so we have to rely on the council," said Natalina.
Although the family has been Band 1 priority for months, not one property has been offered to them, she said.
The eldest child Tyler is 10 and shares a bedroom with his two youngest sisters, which is against official advice on sibling room sharing.
Natalina says there are also huge problems carrying the baby, buggy and shopping up the outside staircase to the flat, which does not have a garden for the children to play in.

Sixth-graders in Craig Fisher's class at Anna S. Kuhl Elementary School in Port Jervis are taking full advantage of the school's latest technology purchase. The class created PowerPoint presentations based on 10 literary terms (including idioms, similes, metaphors, personification, etc.). Their presentations had to include the term's definition and an example of each. The students created the projects using the new netbooks and presented them to their classmates.

The first rule of corporate gift items giving is, that it's not a personal gift. So, the kind of gift you give will directly reflect on your business, and this is a very crucial point that you need to keep in mind. The client management practice has a certain way to it, and once you get the groove, your business is sure to benefit exponentially. Here are some of do's and don'ts that will help you in your journey.
Some companies have a mandate that you can't accept a gift unless a witness is present.
The value of the gift has to be within a limit.
Many government department and affiliated agencies do not allow accepting gifts at all.
It is always a good idea to ask your client upfront about their gifting policies if they have a 'No Gifting' policy then at the very least they know that the thought was there.
The receiving of gifts is even more joyful when a big project has been completed or on a festival. Everyone loves to celebrate, and project completion or festivals are a good reason to celebrate. Giving the employees can be a way to say ' Thank You for your hard work', it also improves brand loyalty. Gifting on festivals is also appreciated as Diwali gifts are the most prevalent in the corporate sector.
The excitement of receiving a gift can be increased ten folds by simply being careful with the presentation. Getting a gift professionally wrapped also sends a message to the receiver that how much you value them.
One thing that you always need to keep in mind is that these are corporate gifts, you can't go overboard with the budget or get too personal. Gifting excessively personal gifts can make the receiver feel awkward. Try to avoid gifts like jewelry completely and stick to the basics, like dried fruit baskets, sweets, and chocolates or even wine are some excellent options.
Getting someones to name wrong in an email is bad enough, but at least it is forgivable. Getting it wrong on a gift is just not an option, this will make the recipient embarrassed which is totally opposite of what you were going for. Go the extra mile and make sure you spell their name correctly if you can even get the accent markers right then that would be cherry on tops like René or josé.
Just make sure to follow these, and you will be set to give the best corporate gifts. There are many choices when it comes to corporate gifting but try to keep it neutral, here handicraft items are an excellent choice as they are useful and also just personal enough to not cause any issues. There are many advantages to giving corporate gifts so don't be hesitant, go ahead and boost your businesses success in the blink of an eye.
