Holland & Knight's Edward F. Koren Jr. Receives Firm's Highest Individual Leadership Award
Tampa, Fla. - March 13, 2012 – Holland & Knight partner Edward F. Koren Jr. is the recipient of the firm's highest individual leadership honor, the Chesterfield Smith Lawyer Award.
This award is given to Holland & Knight partners who have dedicated a substantial portion of their professional life to the establishment, management, promotion and leadership of the firm.
Koren is the head of Holland & Knight's national Private Wealth Services Group, which focuses on wealth planning and protection for high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs and business owners. Koren's hard work, passion for the law, and inspired leadership has transformed the group into the largest and most successful practice of its kind in an American law firm.
Koren started at Holland & Knight as a tax attorney in 1975 and gradually took over the leadership of the Private Wealth Services Group. Koren fundamentally changed this practice by taking a holistic approach to the entire estate planning process – offering clients a wide-range of personalized services that focuses on tax planning, business succession planning, and strategic transactions and wealth transfers over their lifetimes.

But Koren's influence goes beyond the firm. He has helped guide the development of the law in Florida and the nation – drafting important legislation, testifying as an expert before various governmental committees, and writing and filing briefs before the U.S. and Florida Supreme Courts. He has also served as chair of the Real Property, Probate and Trust Law Section of the American Bar Association; chair of the Estate Tax and Gift Committee of ACTEC; and chair of the Tax Section and the Real Property, Probate and Trust Law Section of The Florida Bar.
Koren has received multiple professional honors and awards including induction into the National Association of Estate Planners and Counsels Hall of Fame in 2010 and consistent recognition in The Best Lawyers in America, Chambers USA, Florida Trend and Worth magazine as one of the top attorneys in his field.
Koren is a native Floridian, born in Eustis and received his accounting and law degrees from the University of Florida.

The recent opening of the Bellingen Brewery sees a fresh new venture that is focused on providing a unique local experience to those who visit. It's An open and imaginatively designed space that is filled with hand crafted local materials, good vibes and better brews …
Where did the inspiration come from to start this project?
All three of us had a plan to do something, and timing brought us together. Richard has been brewing and operating for seven years and wanted to take the company to the next level. Jason had finished up another project and had a very strong desire to do a project in the back of his property that was very communal and multifaceted. Rain has dreamed of doing a brewery since the age of 21 and just got back from a trip around Australia that re-inspired him to pursue this dream.
Rain Foran, Richard Jennings, and Jason Brown.
Briefly tell us a bit about yourselves …
Originally from the UK, Richard qualified as a Marine Zoologist and spent seven years working on development projects in Africa, before immigrating to Australia. He moved from Adelaide to Bellingen in 1996 and established the Bellingen Brewing Company in 1998.
Rain grew up and was born right at the end of Darkwood Rd, Thora, on an incredible property. He spent some time in Sydney and overseas, but has always returned home; he has a strong connection to this area. He is very passionate about Bellingen and the environment. Rain has a very particular attention to detail and a strong respect for architecture. He leads a very full lifestyle, loves being in nature and adventuring through it, and actually spends a lot of time underwater. A respected foray into real estate has connected Rain even further with the area and its people; he loves being involved in the community.
Jason is a shire boy with an array of skills, and a distinct eye for design. After time in the florist world with his family, he spread his wings into music and then in to the corporate world with graphic design. He gained many skills, but this was not enough to fill his passion for life. Since being a young man, Jason has been surfing his way up the coast, coming to Bellingen regularly, and one year ago he purchased the site of the brewery. Many years later, he set up No.5 Church Street with a good mate, and now calls Bellingen home.
Bellingen has become an exciting little hub for music and food over the last few years. Did it feel like the time was right to launch a venue like this?
We believe the timing is right in many ways, for us individuals, for the community, and the fact that we think that there is a real desire for things that are real today. Whether it's craft beer or anything that is hand made, people seem to want to connect with the things they consume more and more now and we hope this desire only gets stronger, because it really benefits our community and our country.
You have spent a bit of time renovating and setting up the space; how's the journey been?
The journey has been really fun – but obviously it has had it's stressful times as well.
We had a very clear direction which all three of us agreed on and which was heavily guided by our environmental passions. Every millimetre of this project was considered for its environmental merits and design aesthetics. All the timber used was recycled or sustainably sourced locally. We would spend hours before each decision we made, looking into our materials and making decisions based on the product that had the most minimal effect on the environment. We are very proud to stand behind this venue and know what has gone into it – and the feedback so far has been so generous. The ethics and decisions made on the build will be the same principles going forward in our company.
Craft beer is a hot topic these days. What's the history behind this local beer?
Richard arrived in Australia from the UK in 1996. The beer scene there had changed radically in the previous 10 years, moving away from the dominance of the big multi-national brewers to the resurgence of local breweries offering choice and regional identity. Unfortunately, work got in the way of realising the dream for a few years, until Richard and family moved to Bellingen. In the meantime, craft brewers were beginning to be recognised and appreciated, so it was about time Bellingen put itself on the beer map.
From small beginnings serving beer at the monthly Bellingen markets, the word spread and the number of retail customers increased. The next step was to set up our own bar, where great beer can be served in a relaxed and comfortable space – and that's where we are now.
What types of beer are brewed, and what are some of their unique qualities?
At present we are producing "ales" – Harvest, Darkwood and Black Pig Porter, which explore the range of styles from pale through to dark. The brewer has a choice of numerous malts, hops and yeasts to choose from when designing a new beer, and it is the combination of these elements that makes each craft beer unique. Now that the bar is open, we are looking forward to extending the range, and our plan is to become an organic brewery if we can – so watch this space.
What's the secret to making a great beer? What are the strengths you look for when you taste one?
It's a secret! The starting point is to use quality ingredients with no additives or preservatives and seeing that water is the biggest ingredient, it's important to use the cleanest H2O you can find. On a technical level, it's a question of balancing the malt, hops and alcohol to produce a beer that is enjoyable and interesting.
That's what we look for when tasting a new beer.
Craft brewing is all about difference.
What style of food will you be serving?
We are working on a few concepts for the future, but what we can tell you is it will be sourced locally and will be the best we can find during each season.
How would you describe the venue and the experience it offers to someone over the phone?
"Hello; you must come have a look."
Ha ha … I guess we want people to feel like it's a unique venue that has always been here.
Plans for the future … What do you hope will happen over the next 12 months?
We have big plans. We want to focus on the brewery now that we have opened the venue; we have some exciting new beer ideas and want to start sourcing the best ingredients and hopefully more organic ingredients … The rest is a surprise.
Where can people find out more?
3/5 Church Street, Bellingen. P: 6655 2210.

In the midst of all of my preparation for the holiday season, I decided to make a limited edition of screenprinted calendars. I'd happened to walk into a screenprinting shop while hanging fliers for a bookbinding class, and I was excited when the owner of the shop said that he'd prepare a screen for me. It's been many years since I've done any screenprinting, and every step of the process felt especially labor-intensive and thrilling. I tied on my apron with my old printmaker's pride, took photos of each step of the process, and enjoyed the anticipation of seeing the final prints.
I'll insert a disclaimer here: Those of you who read my blog regularly might have noticed that I often present my experiences here in a rosy light. Because I don't really love reading personal stories that are heavy with self-pity or complaining, I tend to think of my blog as a place to put my best face forward; that is, I like to express a positive attitude with as much humor and humility as possible. And while I've recently noticed that my first wrinkles appear to be smile lines, I have at least my fair share of bad days and creative ruts. I'm an emotional person, for better or worse. It's important to me to be a real person here, even if it's only the internet and not real life, and to express my doubts and failures as an artist when that's the reality.
With that said, I wanted to write about my attempt at printmaking because I felt unexpectedly satisfied with what ultimately turned out to be a failure. I realized tonight that even though I make my living (in a good month) as a bookbinder, I've still considered myself a printmaker at heart, and always had a longing to return to printmedia and be a "real artist" again. When I meet printmakers, I feel a wonderful kinship and pride at knowing such an amazing craft. And I'm not sure that I've ever felt that same pride in being a bookbinder.
But…I'm a bookbinder! That's my work. That's how I spend my days and nights, toiling away in my much-too-small studio. I teach amazing students how to do what I do. Friends and fellow artists think of me as a maker of books. And what's so wrong with that!? I thought that making these prints would give me heart-expansive pride and quiet joy…but it was not to be, and it felt more stressful than satisfying. And in the end, they just didn't look very good. I spent bunch of time and some money on an unsuccessful batch of prints, and I'm happy to move on, continuing to work on the craft that I've grown to love so much. I can't separate the creative work that I've done in the past six years – starting a business, becoming a bookbinding teacher in spite of the terror that made me want to give up, moving to another state and working so hard to support myself by doing the work I love instead of getting a job where I could probably make more money – from my personal happiness and pride.
So at the end of this day I'm sitting in my studio in my printmaking apron, barefooted, drinking a beer, remembering times when creative failures made me break out in a sweat, or burst into tears, or obsess over all the time and money wasted. When I told Andy that all my work on this set of prints was for nothing, but that I was kind of relieved to move on after all the hard work of the sort that I used to love, he looked up from his book and said, "If you're not upset, I'm not upset." Well said.
Also, through the end of January, all orders over $50 receive a free, limited edition gift.
Many, many thanks to all of you who have already helped to make 2012 such an exciting and successful year for Rockpile!
I know that it's not actually winter yet, but it's 4:15 and it's almost dark in Massachusetts, and the winter feeling is setting in. I'm resistant to leaving the house in the late hours of the day, and I'm already fantasizing about post-holiday winter projects. My general habit is to work steadily through November and December, preparing for holiday sales and events, and daydreaming about the lazy days of January. Cold outside, warm inside, slow and unhurried with time for projects that are just for fun. I read an article about Freida Kahlo this morning and thought that January might be a good time to make a painting. And in the car today, driving with a silent radio, I had a new inspiration for a January quilt.
I finally got prints of the photos that Andy and I took on our day trip to North Adams late in the summer. I love how they capture the spirit of the season, and especially the spirit of this particular late-summer for me. August is an amazing time to move to such a beautiful place, and our laid-back days felt particularly like a gift.
We stopped by the side of the road to stand on the warm rocks. It might have been the most beautiful day of the year, with daylight to spare.
I've found that I can survive the seasons more gracefully if I value each for its gifts on my creative process. And then somehow, even though the sunlight is already gone for the day by dinner time, I won't dread the cold, dark days of January or all of the creative moments that winter brings.
I'm doing some updating to my website this week! Please excuse this awkward in-between stage and stay tuned for some news on the class page (one or two winter workshops still in the planning stages), photos of new work, and more random ramblings about life in New England.
I write that as a question because there are still some days, after two and a half months of living up here, that I ask myself what exactly it is that I'm doing here. I ask myself that question because I constantly need clarification. In many ways my life is in transition: I'm working toward my birth and postpartum doula certification, continuing to grow my bookbinding business, establishing a reputation as an instructor in a new place, and, as always, trying to prioritize the relationships in my life, including my relationship to myself.
Thankfully, Western Massachusetts is slowly but steadily providing me with these things, but there are still some days when I get in such a rut that I give myself a headache and it's all I can do to lie on the couch reading a book for the whole afternoon. Truly, though, there are worse ways to spend an afternoon.
We ate doughnuts on the beach the next morning, and Andy decided that we should come back for another visit in January…haha (but I think he was serious).
Being on the beach was amazing, and the drive from MA to ME was so beautiful with all of the leaves changing. The trip also reiterated to me how grateful I am for my traveling companion (on our journey to Maine, and on this transition overall).
It felt nice to get away from home for a few days, and to temporarily let go of all my efforts to get settled and make a perfect life in Northampton. It's also helpful, though, to ask myself what I'm doing up here, away from most of my friends and community, and to answer the question as earnestly as I can on a daily basis. Over times my headaches should subside, and who knows…It doesn't seem like too much of a stretch to think that leaving New England will give me the same bittersweet feeling as leaving Asheville did.
Preparing for the holiday season, Anna comes to visit, Andy teaches his first class, Nami chases the light, Hurricane Party, more weekly planners shipped out to the students of the world. XO.

Re: Where is the Main-Folder ????
Let me know if you don't seem to have the menu option like the user Chris in that topic, since that is a strange bug that the team is still investigating but so far has been unable to reproduce.


Discover fascinating facts about these large herbivores.
1. Two Greek words, 'rhino' meaning nose and 'ceros' meaning horn combine to create the word rhinoceros.
2. A group of rhinos is called a crash.
3. There are five extant species of rhino - white and black (found in Africa), Indian, Javan, and Sumatran (found in southern Asia).
The white rhino name likely derives from the Dutch word 'wijd' meaning wide, which refers to the animal's wide mouth, whilst the black rhino was so-named to distinguish it from the white rhino.
4. The black, Javan and Sumatran species are browsers, wrapping their prehensile upper lip around leaves and twigs when foraging. White and India rhinos are considered to be grazers.
5. Rhinos are part of a group of animals called Perissodactyla, which are odd-toed ungulates. There are only three extant animal famillies in this group - Rhinocerotidae (rhinos), Equidae (horses, zebras and asses) and Tapiridae (tapirs).
6. Rhinos have between 24 to 34 teeth, depending on the species.
7. Rhino horns are made of keratin, the same substance that makes up our nails and hair. It has no medical properties despite being used in traditional Asian medicine.
8. Rhinos have fantastic hearing and a great sense of smell, but have terrible eyesight. They will struggle to spot something further than 30m away.
9. Rhinos love wallowing. By covering themselves with mud and letting it dry they are protecting their skin from the sun. Rhinos will rub their bodies against tree trunks and rocks to remove ectoparasites, such as ticks, which have become stuck in the dry mud on their skin.
10. Rhino gestation lasts between 15 and 16 months, usually giving birth to just one calf (twins are very rare). Young rhinos will remain with their mothers until they are between two or three years old.
11. Rhino home ranges are marked with dung heaps called middens that are used by both male and females to communicate their whereabouts and reproductive condition.
12. Oxpeckers have a symbiotic relationship with rhinos. Rhinos have a host of ectoparasites on their hide that the birds eat, keeping the rhino free of parasites. The oxpeckers can also raise the alarm, warning the rhino if any danger is about.

Auto Sales Gain Traction as Americans Avoid Mass Transit
Pandemic not only boosts demand for new and used cars, but buyers want more tech, other features.
by Paul A. Eisenstein | Jan 14, 2021
Fewer and fewer people are relying on taxis to get them around town due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Taxi business in New York City has dropped by 90% since the start of the pandemic, even as mass transit ridership has fallen precipitously.
The situation, repeated across the country, reflects a variety of factors, including a huge increase among those working from home and a sharp decline in business travel. But even among those who must commute, there's been a sizable shift away from mass transit and ride-hailing services to the use of personal vehicles. And that is leading not only to a surge in car sales, both new and used, but also in the type of vehicles American motorists are purchasing.
Among new car buyers, in particular, motorists are ordering vehicles loaded with the latest in high-tech features, from smart safety devices to infotainment systems, as well as in-car WiFi and other technology, members of an expert panel agreed during a session at the virtual CES 2021.
(Pandemic may not have changed car buying habits of consumers.)
Workers who had previously taken public transportation are now shifting to driving themselves in large numbers.
"COVID is probably going to change commuting patterns permanently," said Carla Bailo, the CEO of the Center for Automotive Research, noting research that finds only 20% of Americans expect to go back to their offices full-time, while 90% expect to go to an office less frequently. Americans "won't revert back," stressed Bailo, "even when we get through the COVID pandemic."
It's not just the way Americans travel for work that's changing, added Bailo. Though tens of millions wound up traveling during the Christmas and New Year holidays, AAA found a significantly higher percentage took the family car, rather than flying or traveling by train, compared to pre-pandemic holidays.
"We'll see for some time people reverting back to their cars for social holidays," said Bailo.
The pandemic has not only made people more reliant on their cars for traveling, but seen people use their vehicles as places to work and even to get a break from family members after extensive isolation, said Christiane Zorn, a senior marketing executive with Audi. And the pattern is playing out in other global markets, as well, she added.
The car, suggested Zorn, is becoming "a personal device," one increasingly loaded up with even more technology than the typical home or office, echoed Andrew Poliak, an executive with Panasonic Automotive.
Due to the pandemic, travel during the holidays was be down slightly, but most of those trekking to see friends and family were driving.
"We're coming to this point of convergence," Poliak said, where many of the things a person could do at home or office can be done in the car. Indeed, he added, it's becoming increasingly common to have a better audio system in the family vehicle than in the typical living room.
(Auto industry "in much better place," but price surge likely to continue.)
"Technology will play a big part in the design of the automotive interior in the future," according to Poliak, and that's reflected by some of the latest automobiles, such as the Cadillac Escalade, with its 39 inches of video screens. The new Mercedes-Benz EQS due out next year will have a "pillar-to-pillar" Hyperscreen display, the automaker announced during a separate CES event.
Tellingly, when Ford redesigned its F-150 for the 2021 model year it developed a retractable gearshift lever that opens up a large workspace that can be used for a motorist's laptop computer.
While much of the new wave of technology is designed for passenger comfort and convenience, there's also been significant growth in the use of advanced driver assistance systems, such as forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking. Some new models offers dozens of these smart safety features.
New and used car sales are on the rise as people move away from public transportation and back into personal vehicles for their commute.
And the first semi-autonomous driving systems, such as Tesla's Autopilot and General Motors' Super Cruise, are receiving warm public receptions. Stefan Buerkle, a senior vice president at mega-supplier Robert Bosch, expects to see the growth of auto-parking technologies that could allow a motorist to exit at their destination and then send their vehicle off to find a parking spot on its own. A press of a keyfob or a tap on a smartphone app would summon the vehicle later.
"You won't have to park your car anymore, or go looking for a spot," something that adds to urban congestion, said Buerkle. But there's another advantage, he added. "That will also make much better use of the infrastructure, especially in cities, where space is at a premium."
Self-parking technology could allow cities to shift to remote parking locations and reduce the need for lots to be set up in dense urban centers, the CES panelists agreed.
While such technology is likely still a few years from production, it will simply add to the trend that has seen new car prices rise rapidly in the last several years. At a separate conference last week, analysts from Cox Automotive noted that the typical new vehicle sold in the U.S. is now rolling off the dealer lot for a record price of around $40,000.
(Commuting may have changed forever, finds new study.)
But the new technologies showing up in the latest vehicles also seem likely to change the basic business model of the auto industry, Bailo and her fellow panelists said. The push to add 4G and even 5G connectivity will allow automakers to not only sell new vehicles but also develop new revenue streams. That will include providing in-vehicle entertainment and using smartphone-style over-the-air updates to add additional features, said Zorn, much as Tesla plans to do with the next major update of Autopilot.

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(CCNMatthews - Jan. 30, 2007) - AXMIN Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AXM) is pleased to report that results received from soil sampling and confirmed by trenching have extended the Komahun prospect at least 2.5 km to the south. The Komahun prospect is located on the Nimini Hills licence in west-central Sierra Leone. Results include 2.2 g/t Au over 25 metres, 6.9 g/t Au over 2 metres (open upslope) and 1.4 g/t Au over 16 metres. In addition a new zone parallel to the southeast of Komahun has yielded a trench result of 2.2 g/t Au over 22 metres. Finally two drill holes designed to infill a previously barren interval in the Main Komahun prospect has intersected 7.0 g/t Au over 15 metres and 3.5 g/t Au over 23.3 metres.
Chief Executive Officer, Dr Jonathan Forster states "This is a most encouraging start to our 2007 campaign in Sierra Leone. The trench results indicate strong potential for the discovery of sizeable new gold mineralised zones in the immediate vicinity of the existing Komahun resource. These results: (i) are directly comparable to the discovery trench results obtained over the 800 metre long Komahun resource where our initial drilling located 382,000 ounces (4.9 Mt grading 2.5 g/t Au, announced October 5, 2006) to a depth of 200 metres; and (ii) effectively triple the previously known target length, even excluding parallel zones. We have initiated a 6,000 metre drill program testing below these trenches using our man portable diamond rig and we are optimistic that the program will contribute to a significant increase in resources at Komahun in 2007."
Exploration at the Komahun prospect during the last quarter of 2006 comprised infill soil geochemistry over a 2,500 metre long southern extension to the mineralised main Komahun structure. 1,500 metres of this southern extension has been sampled on a grid of 100 x 50 metres and a further 1,000 metres has been sampled on a grid of 200 x 50 metres. Within this 2,500 metre strike length three strong anomalies (threshold 40 ppb Au) have been identified with respective strike lengths of 300, 800 and 800 metres from north to south. Sampling to be followed by trenching continues further to the south.
Two trenches, 50 metres apart, at the centre of the most northerly (300 metres) anomaly have been excavated. Trench AX 040 gave an intercept of 2.2 g/t Au over 25 metres, and trench AX 054_EXT gave an intercept of 1.4 g/t Au over 16 metres. Exploration drilling beneath these trenches is currently ongoing.
Two trenches, AX 039 and AX 060 (225 metres south-southwest), has been completed on the middle anomaly (800 metres) with gold mineralisation intercepted in the end sample of AX 039 (6.9 g/t Au over 2 metres) and an intercept of 1.8 g/t Au over 2 metres in AX 060. Trench AX 039 is being extended upslope.
In addition to investigating mineralisation to the south of Komahun a 200 metre long northeast trending soil anomaly lying approximately 300 metres to the east-northeast of the Eastern Extension, just down slope of the Komahun main structure, has been trenched (trench AX 042) and yielded an intercept of 2.2 g/t Au over 22 metres at the centre of the anomaly. Two exploratory core holes have been completed with results awaited.
Grade calculations are based on a 0.5 g/t Au lower cut off to define the mineralised structure, with no upper cut. Assays are in the main from 5 metre composite samples. Analytical work is being carried out at the independent Abilab Laboratories Ltd. in Bamako, Mali. The drill samples are subject to a full sample preparation followed by a 50 gram fire assay with an AA finish. Blanks, standards and duplicates are being used to monitor laboratory performance during the analysis. Assay of individual one metre samples in mineralised zones is in progress. This press release has been reviewed by in-house qualified person Dr. Jonathan Forster, Fellow of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining in the United Kingdom.

Young people need vote to avert climate breakdown
| 17th September 2019
Influential think tank IPPR calls for vote for 16 year olds so they can challenge the 'toxic inheritance' left by older generations.
Political leaders and policymakers must recognise the duty they owe to the next and future generations.
The voting age should be lowered to 16 to give young people a voice on their future in the face of environmental breakdown, a think tank has urged.
Today's youngsters and future generations are facing a "toxic inheritance" of environmental crises caused by climate change, the loss of wildlife and damage to the oceans and soils, a report from IPPR warned.
Without urgent action by the current generation of political leaders, future generations will not just be economically worse off than their parents, they will face huge challenges from environmental damage and its impact on society.
The report is calling for votes at 16, as is already the case for Holyrood and local elections in Scotland, to give a voice to those who will face the consequences of what older generations are doing to the world and give them a say on their future.
It also calls for a "Future Generations Act" which would provide a formal legal recognition of the right of future generations to live in a world with a stable environment, and make sure policy-making takes that into account.
And it wants to see greater value given to environmental projects which have long-term benefits for future generations in the process of making public investment decisions.
The report comes ahead of global climate strikes on Friday, when children and students across the UK are set to walk out of lessons and lectures to call for urgent action from politicians to tackle the climate and wildlife crises.
In the UK, one of the demands of the climate strikers is to lower the voting age to 16, in recognition they have the greatest stake in the future.
Luke Murphy, Head of IPPR's Environmental Justice Commission, said: "Current and future generations face a toxic inheritance as a consequence of environmental breakdown.
"Political leaders and policymakers must recognise the duty they owe to the next and future generations.
"Crucially, they must act to protect them by giving legal recognition to their rights and by giving them a voice in our political system."
The report warns that younger and future generations will have to experience impacts on the environment which are partly the result of greenhouse gas emissions caused by older generations and "decisions taken by elites in these generations, most of whom have only a small chance of being alive by 2050".
In order to limit environmental breakdown younger generations will have to use far smaller quantities of resources over their lifetimes than older generations.
They will have to build sustainable economic models and cope with issues such as food prices pushed up by extreme weather hitting production and the emotional toll of dealing with rapid change and damage to society.
Shadow minister for voter engagement and youth affairs, Cat Smith, said: "Our young people are a force to be reckoned with, who are taking to the street, leading the climate strikes and using their voices to influence positive change.
"Yet instead of being supported and valued, young people continue to have their voices ignored by this Government.
"At the next election, Labour will set out a bold policy agenda that will radically change young people's lives, including tackling the climate crisis, scrapping tuition fees, and extending the vote to 16-year-olds."
But a Cabinet Office spokesperson said: "The age of 18, not 16, is widely recognised as the age at which one becomes an adult.
"Full citizenship rights - from drinking, to smoking, to voting - should only be gained at adulthood."
"What is vital is that we educate people from a younger age about democracy and give them the confidence and enthusiasm to participate when they are 18.
"The Government has developed a variety of programmes to deliver this and works in partnership with schools and civil society groups across the country."

In this obsidian gemstone of a book, the novelist and film-maker Éric Vuillard uses such details – moments of farce, historical flotsam – to conduct a powerful argument against the inevitability of history. We are used, he notes, to thinking of the German war machine as unopposable, but in 1938, "Blitzkrieg" was nothing more than a hopeful slogan – "just a bunch of stalled Panzers". The idea was, in fact, inspired by the military writings of one Maj Gen JFC Fuller, who became an enthusiastic fascist, joining Oswald Mosley in "deploring the indolence of the parliamentary democracies and calling for a more rousing form of government".
The book takes the form of a series of historical tableaux occurring in the lead-up to the second world war. The first is in February 1933, when Hermann Göring and Adolf Hitler invite 24 German industrialists to the palace of the president of the Reichstag, in order to encourage donations to the Nazi party. National socialism, they explain, is very pro-business. And after all, "Economic activity demanded calm and stability" – which might remind the reader of the good cheer with which the markets greeted the election of Bolsonaro. The industrialists – representing companies still with us today, including Siemens, Allianz and Bayer – duly pay up.
Another president comes to mind when Hitler, blackmailing the Austrian chancellor during a meeting at the Bergdof, experiences an outburst of crazed magniloquence. "He said that in Hamburg he was going to build the largest bridge in the world. And then … he added that soon he would put up the tallest buildings." It need not be added that the Führer intended to build a big, beautiful wall. Of another Nazi installed in his government, meanwhile, the Austrian chancellor pleads "he's a moderate Nazi, really just a patriot".
Only once, in a book viscous with shabby capitulations and dank dealings, does the author allow himself a passage of outright phantasmagorical horror. One of the Nazi-donating industrialists, Gustav Krupp, has a vision in 1944 of a crowd of corpses advancing towards him in his drawing room. They are the people assigned to his factories by the SS as slave labour, whose deaths through overwork and malnutrition were greatly profitable throughout the war to many of Krupp's comrades: "BMW hired in Dachau … IG Farben … operated a large factory inside the camp at Auschwitz." Vuillard observes acidly that Krupp's own company, now the steel conglomerate ThyssenKrupp, omits all mention of such inconvenient matters on its corporate website.
The Order of the Day won 2017's Prix Goncourt for fiction, and is described by the UK publishers as a "novel", but it stretches the definition of that word a long way. In French it calls itself a récit – an account – and is really a historical essay with literary flourishes. The selection of facts creates surreal patterns, as when Vuillard reveals that Joachim von Ribbentrop, while Germany's ambassador to London, had paid rent to Neville Chamberlain to live in one of the Englishman's Belgravia properties. And perhaps a time the author describes pointedly as one "dominated by a mysterious respect for lies" is best captured with a measure of poetic licence.

We will see a weak low develop across Alberta today and then track eastward bringing a small coating of snow to northern Saskatchewan and northern Manitoba.
By Wednesday evening the low will reach Hudson Bay.
Blowing snow will cause problems as wind gusts to 60 km/h are forecast for southeastern Saskatchewan and southwestern Manitoba.
Aside from that the remainder of this week looks fair with no disruptions until at least Friday.

Music Information Centre
The Music information centre is located in the town of Nicosia. In July 2000 the Ministry Board decided that the creation of a Music information centre was necessary and its operation began. The Centre aims to offer a variety of services to the Cypriot composers, musicians, teachers, students and generally to the music –friendly audience of Cyprus. The first aim of the centre is to create a dynamic archive of Cypriot music. Its goal is to collect and maintain the projects of Cypriot composers in an easy accessed database allowing the public to access it, offering the sheet music along with visual and acoustic aids and biographic materials.
The centre also aims to offer the audience of Cyprus information in relation to the local music and to contribute to the wider cultural development, to make the accomplishments of the local artists well-known and to operate as an extra dynamic voice of the music artists in Cyprus at an international level.

Tom Segura: We all know who (Will Smith) wishes he could slap, Gaffigan wishes hot chicken were hotter
More reactions to Will Smith from Larry the Cable Guy, Jason Alexander, David Spade, Tom Segura, Andy Kindler, Tiffany Haddish and Mary Mack.
Jim Gaffigan is in Nashville tonight and wants the hot chicken hotter.
Natasha Leggero really had to pee.
How Moon Knight is based on Karl Pilkington
And a look at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
Jennie Mack with your daily comedy news or I'd have been dropping a lot of content. This is the normal episode for the morning of Wednesday, March 30th. There was a bonus episode yesterday, all about will Smith and Chris rock as well as the normal episode that goes out at 3 0 5 Eastern. If there is more Oscar news, I will drop in another bonus episode later today, let's get rolling.
Larry. The cable guy says, this is why my jokes are about my family. Their needs are so bad. They can't get upstage to do anything. Andrew Slater. I kind of hope Chris rock goes to the Chappelle route and his next three specials are all about the alopecia community. Steve Byrne, imagine working on the film gig.
And finally, after 25 years, your film was finally mentioned at the Oscars. Jason Alexander, more serious at what's sad for me is that Ukraine, climate disaster voting rights, women's rights, poverty discrimination. All we'll take a backseat and our national conscience and dialogue to a man who felt assault was the proper response to insensitive words.
Mary Mack said maybe there was a mosquito on his face will Sloan tweets nor McDonald and Bob Saget warrants in the Oscar death montage, perhaps it, because they weren't primarily known as movie people or perhaps it's because despite this, they made the greatest movie of all time dirty work from 1998 and Hollywood never forgave them for it.
David spade says. Yeah, because comedian, I don't have a medical chart for everyone in the audience. Andy Kindler, who's got a stick up. His hat said people who think Ricky Jarvis is a comedy superhero who can save any award show already in line for his next randomly titled slapped together.
Lowest common denominator, downward punching special Thompson Gora said. F will Smith's candy ass smacking, a dude, four inches shorter and 50 pounds lighter. He's just in his feelings. Cause his bald headed B been effing around on him for years and he'd sakes it. We all know who he wishes he could slap hashtag Kuk will.
Wow. Maryland state Senator William C. Smith Jr. AKA will Smith went to bed early Sunday nights as the Washington post. He woke up Monday morning. His phone wouldn't stop dinging. I wonder why people had mistaken him for the Oscar winning actor. The one who shares his name, the one who slapped comedian.
Chris rock on Sunday night in front of the whole world. Over a joke about his wife's hair. Good writing Washington post. State Senator will. Smith said, I got a few messages saying you messed up. Actually it was a little more colorful than that. Tiffany Haddish from variety said when I saw a black man Santa for his wife, that meant so much.
As a woman who's been unprotected for someone to say, like, keep my wife's name out of your mouth, leave my wife alone. That's what your husband's supposed to do. Right. Protect you. That meant the world to me. And maybe the world might not like I went down, but for me it was the most beautiful thing I ever seen because it made me believe there's still men out there that love and care about their women, their wives.
she then discussed Chris rock and said, and that's their friend as a friend. Why would you do that? He didn't even run the joke by her, she probably would have said nothing, but you could see, he was clearly dot, dot dot, and they exploited it. They exploited her.
So he protected his wife to me. I went up to her and said,
uh, I'm cleaning this up here. You better perform a certain act on will girl.
Tiffany ed. And you better put that in your magazine. That's what I told her.
Well, Chris rock tickets got a lot more popular variety points out, Chris. Well, we'll turn to the stage for his ongoing comedy tour. This. You can insert the meme of Michael Jackson eating popcorn. Cause I can't wait to hear what Chris rock says on stage
one, that secondary ticketing marketplace reports they've sold more tickets to Chris Rock's tour overnight than they did in the past month. Combined ticket prices have surged going from $46 a ticket to $341.
The Melbourne comedy festival has kicked off. I'll talk about that in the second half, , but from the Sydney morning Herald at first when Scottish comedian Fern Brady's saw Chris rock slapped on the Oscars. She admits feeling a little sympathy for will Smith because maybe his wife's been crying about being bald, but the feeling didn't last long.
From Brady said they're really rich. She could afford to buy a wig made of gold, a sign about this with other comedians this morning, what a lot of comedians are saying is they were, the attack has basically legitimize being able to get up and punch us.
She said my worst gig ever was great. I got chased out of the venue. And then out of the village by angry villagers, there's a cliche at the moment, at least in the UK that you can't say anything in comedy for me, comedy is the freest.
I am in any area of my life to say whatever I want, but definitely in the UK audiences will take great offense at it. It seems like Britain and America are very bad for the feeling that somebody could get up and attack comedians, English, media, and Phil won jokes. The first thing he did after seeing the ANSYS.
I canceled Wilson. Smith's comps to my show. I don't care what he posts on Instagram about me,
Australian standup, Louis Garnham said Chris rock and say, whatever the F he wants. If you go to a comedy show, he should understand the fact that you might get annoyed at some of the things comedian says, and that happens in life if I was at this function.
And someone said something that frustrated me, I wouldn't slap them. From page six, comedy club owners, fear for their comics after the will. Smith's slap. I'm not a comedian. I'm not a performer. I'm not on stage. I don't own a comedy club. I think this whole thing is overblown.
I don't think we're going to suddenly see people storming stages and slapping comedians, but Hey, it makes for a good article comedy seller owner Noam's Warman tells page six, Chrysalis had for joke. That's never okay.
There's no limiting principle to it and it must not be normalized. We support Chris completely. I think even will Smith would agree and probably regrets one. Let's hope it doesn't become a thing. It's not going to become a thing. It's not going to become a thing. Gentlemen used to challenge each other to duels.
So humans are clearly vulnerable to these sort of things. Stop Donny. Zol Dan owned, standup New York. I've been in touch with a handful of comics and every one of them thinks that the same one happened. They've been concerned about cancel culture, but this is next level crazy where they're now concerned about their safety comics are here to entertain and make us laugh full stop to retaliate physically against the comedian for telling jokes is totally uncalled for and hope.
The academy sends a strong message in support for Chris rock. Caroline Hirsch owns Caroline's on Broadway. Her says comedians should be able to feel comfortable and being able to perform. I can with this, you get it. All right. The owners. Yes. We want the community, the nobody's getting up on stage and assaulted comedians.
What else can we talk about? Jim Gaffigan is in Nashville tonight from the Tennessee.
Jim made a poster for his show. Proclaiming in all of the city's hot chicken was still not hot enough. Jim said, I love hot chicken, but I'm somebody who can't pace themselves. So later that night, you know, the bill comes due for the hot chicken, but I'm still a guy that if I'm in Nashville, I'm going to get hot chicken.
The question is before or after the show smart thing would be to do it after the. But given that the promoters are Outback concerts and they're from Nashville. I think they're probably going to give me some hot chicken before I did a show in Lafayette, Louisiana, and they brought crawfish. They're just like whatever the local specialties are, this fat guy is going to want this food.
That's my equivalent of touring with an entourage. It's the food great stuff. Natasha Lazaro caught up at the Chicago Tribune. She she describes her new shell rat in the kitchen. That's a cooking competition series on CBS as a cooking who done it almost in the vein of knives out or clue.
We have all these chefs that are coming on and win a cash prize. But what no one knows including Lucero is which one of the chefs is the saboteurs, the rat who's going to sabotage everybody's dishes. You never know who you can trust.
She talked about her worst shills and in this story, get rid of the kids. This was after the results of the last presidential election came in. I was so ecstatic. This was in LA and people were partying the streets, my husband and I were driving home from the beach and I had a pee bad. I was not drunk, but I never had a piece so bad.
This was in the middle of COVID. So nothing was open. And then I saw the comedy store it's on my husband pull over. I can't say any more. I never had to pee this bad. So I went to the comedy store and bang on the door was [11:00] AM. There's usually a few cleaners there, but it was COVID.
Everything was locked up, but I had a piece so bad, so I went to a great that's in the parking lot. I lifted up my dress and squatted over the great and I peed in a great, thankfully I was wearing a dress pants would have be a little more difficult. It's very hard to be subtle when your penis, a woman, cause you got.
Megan, just be standing there and wouldn't even know. So I did a very lady like squat, and . Then I did my little jump to drip. I remember looking up and seeing that my name was written on the building and I'm like, you know what? I think this is going to be okay.
So phentermine wants to come up to me and arrest me. I'll be like, Hey, look, my name's on the wall. So I'm a lot of P in this. Great. I don't know if anybody saw me though. There are people driving by and there are people. I try not to squat too much. If somebody did see me kind of looked like I was just in a strange yoga pose in the parking lot.
But her and my husband, his mouth was just hanging open. He couldn't believe I was being in the parking lot over this. Great. I think he was annoyed. He was afraid someone would see, but I dunno, I just felt like anything's possible now that we have a new president, you know, so you know what, why not?
All right. If you'd like to support the show is a couple things you can do and you gotta buy me a coffee.com/daily comedy news. And then throw $5 in the chip jar. I will take your money. I will go to the national donuts chain owned by one of these large iced coffees with caramel and milk. It's coming in very handy this week.
Well, these bonus episodes that I'm putting out also it's Wednesday it's trivia night. I got to hit the brewery from my buddy Glen, play some trivia. So if you'd like to buy Glenn a beer, you can buy Glenn, a beer or five, seven, some beer, beer, $7, but you could donate five by Glenn five, seven, some beard buy me a coffee.com/daily company news.
You can also become a premium subscriber to the podcast. The podcast continues to be free, but if you would like it without commercials, and you'd like early releases for $4 and 99 cents a month. You can become a paid subscriber on apple podcasts. Get the episodes commercial free plus early releases and bonus episodes.
Just open up apple podcasts. You will see the option. Moon night is out today. People are very excited for moon night. Newsweek wrote about it and said, moon is almost here signaling Oscar Isaac's foray into the MCU.
On the show, Oscar Isaac does a questionable English accent.
He talks about the process of getting into character and reveal that his inspiration was comedian Karl Pilkington. Remember Karl from when podcasts were narrow and Ricky Jarvis had like V hottest podcast and Carl was the, I dunno, a dumb guy on that podcast.
Oscar Isaac said it was set in London and I asked why. And the answer was like, we just have too many characters in New York, so they just decided to change it up. Let's make them an ex-pat in London.
Oscar said his love for English humor and shows like the office and staff let's flats help him create his version of Steven Green. And there's just so much humor that I find funny and that there's an opportunity here to make something. What if we make them English? What if Peter Sellers was approached with a Marvel project, what would he do?
And I started thinking about that and that led me to Karl Pilkington from an idiot abroad. Music rights for the unversed curl. Pilkington is an English comedian best known for his, an idiot abroad series alongside Ricky and Stephen merchant. His stressed out unintentionally funny type of humor is a far cry from the suave and polished presence fans are used to seeing from Oscar, Isaac.
The Melbourne international comedy festival has started. Fashion journal caught up with comedian Lauren Bonner. Lauren says I'm a comedian, but if you don't believe me, you can come see my new show elephants at the festival this year. Lauren says the Melbourne comedy festival is huge.
It's so big. It can be totally overwhelming, but it's also stacked with so many amazing shows. If you don't know where to start, let me hear you first. I recommend you seeing me, Lauren Bonner and my show elephant. It's six 40 every night, except Wednesdays at trades hall. Now I'm done being selfish. You can also see Ben Cochin and Concetta Crystal's show funny as sin.
I'm also excited to see Frankie McNair show, relax your knees. It's their debut solo show. And I think it'll be a cracker. Some other shows that we'll take silly to another level entirely or Emma Holland's at dreamer in the mist and Sam Campbell's companion. Both of these acts do the kind of comedy that makes me wonder if they're from the same planet as me.
If you want total chaos, try late night shows like Dan rats, cockroach party, or hot departments after. Because I'm in Sydney. I don't get to see Melbourne bay sacks too often. So I'm really keen to catch. Andrew Portelli is tough guy.
Irvy went to an all-girl school. Grace Jarvis's digging a hole and Bronwyn cusses, any GOs. These guys are also funny and crushing it on the local club circuit.
The Melbourne international comedy festival has started to run all the way to April 24th. Melbourne is a fantastic city. I loved my time there. The Botanic gardens in that city are absolutely beautiful. What a wonderful place. I hope I get back to Melbourne someday. Hey, maybe an international comedy festival.
We'll be like, Hey, fly on down. It's on us. I would go just saying it. The festival did not get off to the best of starts for comedian Mark Watson, his day long flight to get there was canceled on the tarmac at Heathrow. He tweeted my flight's been canceled on the runway and the captain says it will now continue at [8:00] AM tomorrow.
Continue is doing a bit of lifting there, given that so far, we've traveled at zero of the 10,000 miles.
