Home Texas Court of Appeals Court Held That A Beneficiary's Claims Against The Estate Of The Trustee Was Not Barred By Limitations
Court Held That A Beneficiary's Claims Against The Estate Of The Trustee Was Not Barred By Limitations
By David Fowler Johnson on April 13, 2022
In Estate of Erwin, a husband died leaving some property to his wife and creating two trusts, naming his wife as the trustee and beneficiary with his children as remainder beneficiaries. No. 13-20-00301-CV, 2021 Tex. App. LEXIS 10160 (Tex. App.—Corpus Christi December 29, 2021, no pet.). The wife commingled property and made other transfers of property. She then died, and one of her children became the successor administrator of the husband's estate and the administrator of the mother's estate. A son filed suit against the executor of mother's estate for the mother's actions during her tenure as executor and trustee, and also raised claims against the executor of the father's estate for failing to bring those same claims. The plaintiff also sought an accounting. The defendant filed a motion for summary judgment based on the statute of limitations, which was granted by the trial court.
On appeal, the court of appeals reviewed the relevant authority for the statute of limitations in fiduciary cases:
A party ordinarily may not recover on a claim filed after the applicable limitations period has run on that claim and the affirmative defense is raised. "Generally, a cause of action accrues when a wrongful act causes a legal injury. The date a cause of action accrues is normally a question of law." …
There are "two doctrines that may delay accrual or toll limitations: (1) the discovery rule and (2) fraudulent concealment." "The discovery rule applies on a categorical basis to injuries that are both inherently undiscoverable and objectively verifiable." "When applicable, the discovery rule 'defers the accrual of the cause of action until the injury was or could have been reasonably discovered.'" For the discovery rule to apply, "the nature of the injury incurred [must be] inherently undiscoverable and the evidence of injury [must be] objectively verifiable." "An injury is inherently undiscoverable if it is by nature unlikely to be discovered within the prescribed limitations period despite due diligence." "[A] person to whom a fiduciary duty is owed is either unable to inquire into the fiduciary's actions or unaware of the need to do so." However, "[w]hile a person to whom a fiduciary duty is owed is relieved of the responsibility of diligent inquiry into the fiduciary's conduct, so long as that relationship exists, when the fact of misconduct becomes apparent it can no longer be ignored, regardless of the nature of the relationship."
Fraudulent concealment, on the other hand, "is a fact-specific equitable doctrine that tolls limitations until the fraud is discovered or could have been discovered with reasonable diligence." To constitute fraudulent concealment, the "plaintiff must establish an underlying wrong, and that (1) the defendant actually knew the plaintiff was in fact wronged, and (2) concealed that fact to deceive the plaintiff." When the actor has a duty to disclose material facts, such as a fiduciary, silence by the fiduciary may be enough to sustain a fraudulent concealment defense to the applicable statute of limitations. "When a defendant is under a duty to make a disclosure but conceals the existence of a cause of action from the party to whom it belongs, the defendant is estopped from relying on the defense of limitations until the party learns of the right of action or should reasonably have discovered it." When a fiduciary relationship exists, the fiduciary is under a duty to fully disclose all material facts to the beneficiaries. "Beneficiary" includes any "person for whose benefit property is held in trust, regardless of the nature of the interest." Generally, "Texas courts have refused to apply the discovery rule to claims arising out of probate proceedings in most instances . . . even in the face of allegations of fraud." However, the court should look to the conduct forming the genesis of the cause of action to determine the applicable statute of limitations.
The defendant argued that the plaintiff's statute of limitations began to run when the father's will was admitted to probate in 1993. The court of appeals disagreed:
[N]one of the cases Redding relies on hold that limitations for causes of action with regard to the administration of a testamentary trust, such as breach of fiduciary duty, begins when a will is admitted to probate. Nor do we find any. Such a holding would lead to an inherently unfair result: a trustee to a testamentary trust could simply wait a few years from the time the will was probated and engage in various breaches of fiduciary duties and the beneficiaries would be prohibited from recovery, even if the suit was filed the day following the alleged breach. Instead, a claim for breach of fiduciary duty, subject to the discovery rule or fraudulent concealment, accrues when the alleged breach of duty occurred.
The court agreed that the plaintiff's claim relating to the mother's failure to issues statements or keep proper accounting information was barred by the statute of limitations as the will required those acts and the plaintiff should have known of her failure to comply. Regarding the plaintiff's claims for mismanagement, however, the court reversed and held that there was a fact issue on whether the statute of limitations had run. The court held:
The terms of Trust A prohibited Bettye from invading the corpus of the trust for her own benefit—she was only entitled to the profits generated therein. Based on the fiduciary relationship between Bettye and appellants, we conclude both the discovery rule and fraudulent concealment tolled the statute of limitations as to appellants' claims of Bettye's misappropriation or mismanagement of the trust property.
Nothing in the record demonstrates that Bettye's alleged misconduct was so apparent that it could not be ignored. Bettye, as trustee, was under a duty to disclose material facts to the beneficiaries. We further conclude that appellants, as beneficiaries, were "relieved of the responsibility of diligent inquiry into [Bettye's] conduct" because they were "either unable to inquire into [Bettye]'s actions or unaware of the need to do so." Bettye's act of signing warranty deeds and other real property records as trustee would likely have led the beneficiaries to believe she was acting in good faith as required. Absent evidence that appellants were actually aware of Bettye's misconduct, if any, the limitations period did not begin to run on her alleged breaches of fiduciary duties for misappropriating or mismanaging the trust assets until her death, when the beneficiaries would have received the remainder of the trust.
Id. Regarding the plaintiff's claims against the executor of the estate of the father for not pursuing claims against the executor of the mother's estate, the court held: "without looking to the merits of appellants' causes of actions against Redding as independent administrator of C.E.'s estate, we conclude that the limitations period has not expired on those claims either. Redding did not become the successor administrator until September 27, 2017, and appellants' first petition was filed on June 1, 2018—well within the applicable limitations periods." Id.
Finally, the court of appeals reversed the trial court's order protecting the mother's executor from preparing an accounting of the trusts. The court stated:
Although Redding has not been appointed the successor trustee over C.E.'s testamentary trusts, as independent administrator for Bettye's estate, Redding assumes the responsibility of rendering an accounting. To the extent that Redding relies on the statute of limitations to shield her from rendering an accounting, she provides no case law, and we find none, that hold that the statute of limitations preventing recovery for breaches of fiduciary duty for failure to render an account prevent beneficiaries from seeking to compel an accounting. Accordingly, until a successor trustee is appointed, Redding, as administrator of Bettye's estate, has the duty to render an accounting for the trusts.

Various Consequences
... against so much unfairness of things, various consequences ensued ...
Stults Verx Design
Dayton Diode
Open Source Aero
Commercial Model Aircraft Use
22nd IMR Meshing Contest Model
There are some interesting commercial uses of model aircraft listed in Pirker's motion to dismiss an FAA civil penalty for commercial drone use. The motion provides examples in four broad categories: Cinema and Television, The Model Aircraft Industry, Model Airplane Operators Who Are "Sponsored" or Compensated at Competitions, and Media Coverage and Entertainment.
In 2004, makers of the film The Aviator (which grossed over $100 million in domestic ticket sales) utilized custom-made model airplanes to create the many aerial special effects shots. Joe Bock of Aero Telemetry recounted in an interview how his company created a 25-foot wingspan model of the Spruce Goose which the film crew "took off and flew and landed under its own power right out of the Long Beach Harbor in the exact location where the real one did."
The crew of Discovery Channel's Storm Chasers has for years used radio-control model airplanes and, more recently, "quadcopter drones" equipped with cameras and GPS tracking to photograph and measure dangerous storms for the production of commercial television programs.
The 1982 film "Zapped" starring Scott Baio features an extended sequence of a model airplane flown in a park over the heads of the actors. The airplane is flown low to the ground, over people, and is depicted as coming close to striking one of the actors.
The 1998 film "Rushmore," filmed on location in Texas, utilizes the operation of a radio-control model airplane in a stadium parking lot.
The popular show Mythbusters makes frequent use of radio-controlled model aircraft, which are flown for the "commercial" purpose of creating a for-profit television program.
The "Jackass" series of slapstick films makes use of radio-control aircraft, often with the intent of placing actors in harm's way for comedic effect. In one scene, for example, a radio-control helicopter equipped with a paintball gun is used by one of the actor to fire paintballs at other actors.
In a 2012 episode of truTV's "Storage Hunters," the winners of an auction for the contents of an abandoned self-storage un it discover that they have purchased an expensive T-Rex 700 model helicopter with a camera gimbal designed for aerial photography. They proceed to fly it outdoors, and the episode ends with a video shot from the model helicopter itself.
Various companies involved in the model airplane industry not only operate model aircraft for "business" purposes, but they pay people to fly those models. The public record reflects countless examples of model aircraft videotaped in flight, for advertising purposes . In some cases, those videos are taken not only from the ground, but from the airborne model aircraft itself. Additionally, these companies conduct airborne testing and development of commercial products (just as military "drone" contractors do).
Companies in the industry also "sponsor" model airplane pilots who are paid to fly model aircraft at events so as to promote the brand and products the company sells.
Countless contests are held each year in which cash is paid to model aircraft operators who perform best at different types of radio-controlled flight, such as pattern flying and aerobatics. For example, the "Top Gun" competition has been held for 25 years in Florida and is heavily funded by corporate sponsors. There are five days of competition and thousands of dollars in prizes to model aircraft pilots in a variety of categories.
The YouTube show "Flite Test" has drawn an audience of over 85,000 subscribers, thanks to its professionally-produced, creative episodes concerning all aspects of model aircraft design and operation. The show has at various times been spons ored by hobby companies, appears to receive YouTube advertising revenue, and is funded by viewers themselves (who buy products sold by the show).
From the motion,
If the FAA's implicit interpretation of model aircraft regulation were correct, none of these businesses would be legal. Today's sophisticated variety of model aircraft may bear little resemblance to the industry in 1981, but it is beyond dispute that model aircraft have for decades been operated for business and commercial purposes without any suggestion that an operator's "commercial" or "business" purpose would result in regulation under the FARs -- let alone an outright ban.

How silly:
To the extent that the 2007 Notice may be viewed as an interpretative rule that, somehow, treats FARs as directly applicable to model aircraft, that interpretation must be rejected as erroneous because it conflicts with so many of the regulations.
The conflict is perhaps best highlighted by 14 C.F.R. § 91.1(c) which governs the applicability of Part 91 Subpart A regulations, including Section 91.13 which Mr . Pirker is alleged to have violated. It reads, in pertinent part, "This part applies to each person on board an aircraft being operated under this part, unless otherwise specified." 14 C.F.R. § 91.1 (emphasi s added). This provision confirms that none of the regulations in Part 91 Subpart A apply at all to Mr. Pirker, who was never, nor could ever be, "on board" his model aircraft.
Some of these conflicts are irreconcilable and would leave operators with no ability to comply. For example, under 14 C. F.R. § 91.119 concerning minimum safe altitudes, "no person may operate an aircraft below" certain altitudes except for takeoff or landing. Over non-congested areas, the minimum is 500 feet AGL. However, in Advisory Circular AC-91-57, which constitutes the only FAA guidance concerning the altitude of model aircraft flight, model aircraft operators are instructed: "Do not fly model aircraft higher than 400 feet above the surface." If "model aircraft" were interchangeable with "aircraft" for purposes of existing FARs, they could never be flown at all because they must, according to FAA guidance, fly below 400 feet while also flying above 500 feet.

Here's coverage of a related story on slashdot. Matt Waite founder of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Drone Journalism Lab got a cease-and-desist letter from the FAA for using a drone for news gathering. He's documenting his efforts to get a COA on github.

Interesting commercial UAS conversation on the Make: site.
Joshua Stults Saturday, March 08, 2014
Seems like a bit of common sense is prevailing in the Pirker case: Pirker Decision.
AUVSI has a cautious statement: "We are reviewing the decision very carefully and we have also been in touch with the FAA to discuss its implications and the agency's response. Our paramount concern is safety. We must ensure the commercial use of UAS takes place in a safe and responsible manner, whenever commercial use occurs. The decision also underscores the immediate need for a regulatory framework for small UAS."

What Physical Attributes for what Fighters?
I recently had the honour of guest posting over at Straight to the Bar. The post explores the issue of ensuring combat sport athletes do not do too many 'general' compound movements. Often, it is worthwhile analysing movements in the athletes sport and doing 'sport specific' compound movements in their strength and conditioning sessions.
The article is titled The Right Attributes for the Right Fighters. Head on over there and check it out.

Legitimate interest – changing the law of penalties
Published: 5 Aug 2016
Article first published by Appleby in August 2016
Much has previously been written about what may constitute an unenforceable contractual penalty clause. However, a refreshing decision by the Supreme Court now provides greater scope in England and Wales to avoid the pitfalls of penalty clauses, if the clause is commercially justifiable.
Ruth Costain
Associate: Isle of Man
E Email Ruth
In what marks a divergence of the common law of England and Wales and the Isle of Man, the Supreme Court stated in Cavendish Square Holding BV v El Makdessi and ParkingEye Ltd v Beavis that the test used to determine whether a contractual provision for payment of a specified sum upon breach of contract is a liquidated damages or a penalty clause must take account the legitimate interest of the innocent party in ensuring the performance of the contract.
Previously the question of whether a provision was liquidated damages or a penalty was determined, as a matter of construction, by whether or not the amount stipulated was a genuine pre-estimate of loss flowing from the breach, as of the time of agreement (Genuine Pre-estimate Test), in line with the tests set out by Lord Dunedin in Dunlop Pneumatic Tyre Co Ltd v New Garage and Motor Co Ltd. A provision found to be a penalty clause is unenforceable (Penalty Rule) against the party who breached the contract.
In the Isle of Man, the Genuine Pre-estimate Test was confirmed as the correct approach to the validity of such clauses by the Staff of Government Division in Allen v Shepherd in 2000.
However, in England and Wales the principles underlying the law remained unclear, creating difficulties in its application to complex cases. When the two cases of Cavendish and ParkingEye came before the Supreme Court together in 2015 it took the opportunity to re-examine the origins of the Penalty Rule and its underlying principle. The two cases concerned the provisions of a share purchase and shareholders' agreement, and an £85 carpark overstay charge respectively.
Following a lengthy analysis, the Supreme Court stated that the underlying principle of the Penalty Rule was to regulate the available remedies for a breach of the primary obligations only; it did not regulate the primary obligations themselves. It went on to reason that the true test was therefore "whether the impugned provision is a secondary obligation which imposes a detriment on the contract-breaker out of all proportion to any legitimate interest of the innocent party in the enforcement of the primary obligation."
The new test adds greater flexibility to the Penalty Rule. Contractual clauses aimed at deterring a breach of contract rather than the recovery of compensation may now be enforceable by way of liquidated damages in England and Wales if the innocent party can show they had a legitimate interest in ensuring contract was performed.
In the Isle of Man however, whilst the judgment of Cavendish and ParkingEye may be highly persuasive, it is not binding on the Manx Courts. Under the doctrine of precedent the Manx High Court remains obliged to follow Allen and apply the Genuine Pre-estimate Test until such time that it can be challenged on appeal in the Staff of Government Division, affording it the opportunity to review the position in light of the recent developments in UK jurisprudence.
Whilst the Cavendish and ParkingEye ruling is likely to be of significance to the construction and energy sector, parties to contracts governed by the laws of the Isle of Man should bear in mind that under Manx law provisions for breach of contract may still require justification as a genuine pre-estimate of loss, evidence of which will be taken as at the time the agreement was made.

The various national Phamacopoeias describe a number of sterile products, the majority of which are sterilized by "heating in an autoclave". Many of the products described are heat stable, however some are heat labile and therefore degrade to a certain extent during processing. This paper describes a method which makes it possible to predict to what extent a product has degraded during processing by the computerized integration of the time-temperature profile. The proposed hypothesis was verified by using as a model the decarboxylation of 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid in aqueous phosphate buffer, pH 7. A significant (p - 0.05) difference between the amount of degradation occurring in DHBA samples incorporated in bottles situated at the corners of a standard load matrix (28.9% degradation) and those situated in the center (24.1% degradation) was observed. Using autoclave cycles delivering a standard process lethality. F0 = 8, by means of different holding temperatures it was observed that "high temperature, short time" cycles (121 °C/F0 = 8) produced a smaller degree of degradation (12%) than one which employed prolonged exposure at a relatively low temperature (112 °C/F0 = 8; 30% degradation). This point was further emphasized when, using computer modeling of the autoclave process techniques, it was found that only 5.8% degradation would occur when the standard load was exposed to a chamber temperature of 150 °C and the cycle allowed to continue until a process lethality, F0 = 8 had been accrued.

LABEL: Integrity Music 0000768689127
Reviewed by Ian Whitwood
Having been established as a top Christian female vocalist for 21 years with 15 highly rated albums to her credit, the Latin pop singer, having slipped from view after marrying Salvador's Nick Gonzalez, has her first CD out for five years. Producers David Leonard and Chris Bevins help this most gifted of singers to deliver a quality musical feast of 10 top rate tracks. "Great Are You Lord" sums up her and her husband's faith and focus with the words "It's your breath in our lungs, so we pour out our praise to you only." Impressive vocal support from Nick characterised by their beautiful harmonies places this track alongside the best on the album. On the title track Jaci sings of her motivation, "You lift me up/My heart is wide open," and the musical production is slick and powerful. Most of the album's songs increase in intensity as Jaci's faith-fuelled passion takes hold of the lyrics and enhances their message. This is especially evident in "God Who Moves The Mountains" with its subtle opening that develops into a powerful tribute to a mighty God. Jaci's experience of her son's autism and her own personal battles are reflected in "It's Never As Dark As It Seems To Be" with a reverberating undercurrent of electronic sound opening this song of encouragement. The penultimate track is the worshipful "Praise The King". Clearly the CCM veteran has lost none of her ability to bring controlled emotion to songs of faith and commitment.
Jaci Velasquez is set to release Trust on March 31st, 2017 with Integrity Music. The new album is a blend of pop with acoustic and electronic elements and is the first project in 5 years for this Dove Award winning artist with 16 No. 1 radio hits and 6 gold and platinum albums to her credit. The title reflects the albums overarching theme that shines through worshipful songs like God Who Moves The Mountains, Trust You, Rest and Its Never As Dark As It Seems To Be. It is a topic Jaci knows well as the mother of a young son facing the challenges of Autism.
Produced by David Leonard (All Sons & Daughters) and Chris Bevins (Salvador, Phillips Craig & Dean), Trust includes new songs penned by Jaci and her husband Nic Gonzales (Salvador) along with some of her favourites from writers including David Leonard, Martin Smith and Dove Award winner Michael Farren. Jaci is a Billboard Latin Music Award winner with five Spanish albums to her credit. In addition to writing, recording and serving as an advocate for Autism awareness, Jaci is also a radio personality and hostess for music industry events including the SESAC Christian Music Awards and the Dove Awards.

Choose a space and style. No matter the size of your home, there's room to squeeze in a study station. Beth Hunter shares ideas on home.com that range from transforming closets into study zones to lofting beds and building a study haven below. Be sure to make the most of nooks and crannies, such as dead room beneath the stairs, which can be used for desk and shelving space.
Get comfortable, but not too cozy. After all, you wouldn't want your distance learner's afternoon study session to turn into a comfy catnap. It's important to furnish the area with items your student can sit in comfortably for a decent period of time, but it's equally important to consider the impact of posture on energy and focus. Take some tips from the McKinley Health Center to find the proper desk, chair, computer setup, and more for your student.
Lighten up. Illuminating the study area properly can be a challenge, especially if you capitalize on the small, underused spaces in your home. EyeCare 20/20 out of Hanover, New Jersey recommends using full spectrum lights, which help reduce glare and eye strain and improve color perception. The source also notes that experts believe the simulation of authentic sunlight can boost moods and energy levels.
Pick a palette. There seem to be a wide variety of opinions on which colors are best for a study area. Some sources suggest that green and red increase concentration while blue boosts creativity. Others suggest using warm colors in a young student's study space to make it more inviting. Feel free to do your own research and have a discussion with your distance learner about his opinions to determine what colors will work best for his study zone.
Once you know what you need to create the study space, turn the construction project into a fun lesson for your distance learner. Set a budget and note the dimensions of the space, then make a list and venture out together to purchase your supplies. Don't be afraid to peruse thrift stores and rummage sales, as they often have hidden gems at budget-friendly prices.
Work with your distance learner when you return home to put together any furniture that requires assembly. Then, organize the items in an appealing manner to complete the study space.
Where does your does your distance learner study?

Striped Bass Eggs Go with the Flow: Pulsed Events and Transport to the ETM
Better Phytoplankton Identification Through Chemistry?
Role Models for Phytoplankton: Reference Communities Developed for Chesapeake Bay
The Coastal Ocean and CO2: Small Area, Large Flux
The estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM), a feature of some estuaries where sediment is trapped and resuspended near the salt front, is a particularly good spot for some fish eggs and larvae to spend time. Eggs are masked from predators under cover of high turbidity, while newly hatched larvae benefit from high concentrations of prey. Salinities can also be favorable for fish eggs and larvae. How do fish ensure that their progeny end up in this optimal spot, particularly since most anadromous fish spawn well above the salt front? A recent study in Chesapeake Bay examines the role of freshwater flow and wind on transport of striped bass eggs to the ETM.
The authors first used a regression model to determine that in fact high freshwater flow does seem to enhance striped bass recruitment: mean freshwater flow rates and the number of pulsed freshwater inputs during the April-May striped bass spawning season explained a significant amount of the variability in abundance of young striped bass in the upper Bay in 1986-2002. A hydrodynamic model was then used to examine the effect of pulsed flow events on striped bass egg transport. The transport of model eggs to the ETM depends on the timing of spawning: eggs spawned after river pulse events may have a better chance of ending up in the ETM than those spawned just before or during an event.
This study suggests that all of the ways in which humans change flow regimes (dams and land use changes for example) may influence the transport of eggs to the ETM, in turn affecting recruitment. The authors also point out that because these episodic events seem to influence recruitment, fisheries models may need to include sufficient resolution in physical forcing factors to be able to account for recruitment variability.

Many estuarine monitoring and research programs require quantitative characterization of phytoplankton species assemblages, usually carried out by identifying and counting cells under a microscope. Far from ideal, this method is time consuming, somewhat subjective, and requires a good deal of expertise to identify species. A more high-tech method was recently developed that will reduce the incidence of microscope-induced eye strain among aquatic scientists. Taking advantage of the fact that different taxonomic groups of phytoplankton contain different photosynthetic pigments or different ratios of pigments shared in common, samples can be characterized and differentiated using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of their pigments. To assist in this method, the CHEMTAX computer program was introduced, which identifies the components of an unknown sample by matching them to a matrix of reference phytoplankton taxa and their pigment ratios.
CHEMTAX was originally developed for oceanic systems, so it was no surprise that a recent study found that use of the CHEMTAX reference matrix in southeastern U.S. estuaries yielded poor results in identifying the composition of phytoplankton samples when the samples were "ground truthed" using the old-fashioned microscopy technique. The investigators then adjusted the CHEMTAX reference matrix for application in South Carolina estuaries by using pigment ratios measured for local species. As expected, the modified matrix yielded better results, although some taxonomic groups still could not be distinguished.
The CHEMTAX approach is promising for estuarine systems but more work needs to be done on incorporating local pigment ratios in the reference matrix. Also, those microscopes can't be put in storage yet: backup microscope analysis will still be required for some samples. Further work on CHEMTAX modifications for estuaries will be worth it, say the authors, as phytoplankton community structure is such a critical parameter for measuring links between human impacts and estuarine health.

Environmental restoration programs continually struggle with designating appropriate unimpaired reference communities to which restored habitats should aspire. It is often difficult to envision what a restored community should look like, especially if the community in question can only be seen with a microscope. The task of developing a set of phytoplankton reference communities (and describing the water quality conditions that support them) for Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries was recently undertaken by a team of researchers. A continuum of desireable-undesireable water quality conditions was divided into worst, poor, mixed, better and best categories, each associated with a range of nutrient and water clarity conditions. Samples from long-term Bay monitoring programs were then placed into these categories according to the samples' nitrogen, phosphorous, and water clarity (Secchi depth) values. Phytoplankton communities from these samples were described using commonly measured metrics including chlorophyll a and biomass of major taxonomic groups.
Among the differences observed between good and poor habitat conditions: phytoplankton communities associated with the least desirable water quality categories exhibited levels of chlorophyll a typical of bloom conditions, levels not observed in the "best" water quality categories. The reference communities associated with the best water quality conditions had consistently low abundances of bloom-forming, potentially harmful species.
This exercise helps identify appropriate nutrient and chlorophyll targets for restoration, which are in close agreement with the stated targets of restoration programs such as the Chesapeake Bay Program. It is also valuable to note that the reference community associated with the best water quality conditions is not a pipe dream for the Bay - it does currently exist, providing hope that restoration can be achieved by encouraging a community that already exists rather than by replacing one that has been lost.

Due to the importance of CO2 in ecosystem carbon budgets and its potential role as a greenhouse gas, lots of scientific energy has been expended in constructing CO2 budgets and examining fluxes between the ocean and the atmosphere. Many studies have asked, where are the CO2 sources and sinks and how does CO2 move within and between systems? In examining the role of the oceans in CO2 budgets, the coastal ocean has usually been neglected. Overlooking the coast is understandable as the continental shelf represents only 7% of the area of the oceans, but a recent Estuaries paper points out that the coast's role is much larger than its area when it comes to CO2.
The study gathered literature estimates of CO2 fluxes in coastal ecosystems and integrated them into a CO2 budget for the ocean/atmosphere that included not only the continental shelf but also estuaries and intertidal areas such as marshes and mangroves. Results indicate that the shelf (excluding the intertidal areas) acts as a CO2 sink, and including it in global CO2 budgets increases the amount of CO2 taken up by the ocean by 24%. However, when estuaries and marshes are added to the picture, the coastal ocean actually switches from a CO2 sink to a source, decreasing the amount of CO2 taken up by the global ocean by 12%. These estimates vary with latitude: at high and low latitudes the coast/intertidal areas act as a net source of CO2 but temperate areas are a net sink. Although these are only preliminary estimates, the magnitude of the effect of including coastal areas in these budgets is clear. It will be important to get a better grasp of the role of these areas, as their CO2 properties are likely to change in response to current and future stresses (such as climate change and further eutrophication).
Of course, many simplifying assumptions are necessary in order to undertake a synthesis such as this. In particular, better estimates are needed of estuarine and intertidal area, and differences between processes in "inner" and "outer" estuaries need to be better understood.

To some people, dating comes just as natural as breathing. Well, we got to admit, those ones got pretty lucky because dating can sometimes be tricky. If you're one of the charmers, you probably won't be needing this article. However, those on the opposite side of this situation will definitely learn a thing or two from reading it.
Nowadays dating is pretty common, and it's really important that we leave a great impression when we decide to go on one. The tricky part about it, is the fact that leaving a bad impression will most likely leave you without another chance to try and make it better. So, if you're fed up with getting rejected or disappointing people on your dates, we have a few tips for you.
Nobody is perfect and that's a well-known fact. However, when people go on dates, they have really high expectations in their minds about how things should work out perfectly. That's why you need to give your best when it comes to showing your most impressive side.
Although we're not fans of the "materialistic values over personality", sadly we live in a world where for some reason, it is really important to people what kind of clothes you wear or what kind of a smartphone you own. So, just for the sake of leaving a good impression, wear your best and newest clothes on your first date. Since we're trying to do everything to leave a great impression, we don't want any possible disadvantages.
Now, after you're done with the looking good part, it's time to focus more on the inside. Plan what you're going to talk about and think of all the conversations you had with the person before the date if there were any. It is also well-known that having a lot of things in common with the person will most likely increase the chances to like each other.
However, you should be aware of another also known fact which says that opposites attract even more. So don't try too hard on being like the person you're dating in terms of liking the same things. It's completely okay if she likes rock music and you prefer hip-hop. Be unique and you will be more attractive.
There are many apps and websites out there that are designed for people to find their match more easily. W4m maps is a pretty good example. A date will always go better if you manage to talk for a few days before it. Learn what the person likes or dislikes and try to utilize that. For example, if they tell you that red color is their least favorite, don't wear red on your date. Unless you want to turn it into a joke and let them know that you actually remember small details.
Make sure that you do some things that will impress the person you're dating, but remember to still remain yourself, no matter what you do. After all, if the person ends up dating you for a long time, sooner or later they will find out how you're really like, so there's no point in faking it.
Just be yourself and even if you get rejected, never take it personally. I'm pretty sure that most of you would also reject someone that you don't like, no matter if you're a person that never dated anyone before. We all have our standards and we all know what we're worth. So go out there and find someone to date.
