The following article is staff opinion only and is not meant, nor should be construed, as legal advice. Financial institutions seeking a legal interpretation and/or analysis of the application of the Koss Corporation v. Park Bank case should consult with their legal counsel.
On Jan. 29, 2019, the Wisconsin Supreme Court (Court) issued its opinion in the Koss Corporation v. Park Bank case (Koss Corp.). The case involved the definition of "bad faith" under Wisconsin's Uniform Fiduciary Act (UFA). Previously, there was little case law in Wisconsin interpreting "bad faith" under the UFA. WBA filed with the Wisconsin Supreme Court an amicus brief in support of Park Bank's position.
An employee embezzled approximately $34 million from Koss Corporation over a period of ten years. The employee used multiple methods to embezzle funds. Methods included obtaining cashier's checks for personal expenditures, instructing other, non-signatory employees to request checks, taking and cashing checks made payable to cash, and initiating wire transfers to out-of-state banks. After the employee pled guilty, Koss Corporation sought relief against Park Bank under the UFA, claiming Park Bank acted in bad faith in those transactions. The Milwaukee Circuit Court dismissed all claims against Park Bank. The Wisconsin Court of Appeals affirmed the lower court, and the Wisconsin Supreme Court affirmed that decision.
Two conclusions are clear from the Court's decision. First, Park Bank's conduct did not amount to bad faith. Second, negligence does not prove bad faith. However, a disagreement between the lead opinion and the concurring opinions disrupted the opportunity to clearly define "bad faith." This article will discuss what is clear from the Court's opinion, what is unclear, and how the opinion affects Wisconsin banks.
Koss Corp. involves the question of whether a bank can be held liable for the actions of a third party fiduciary. Specifically, whether a bank can be held liable for acting in "bad faith" in its transactions with an employee embezzling millions from a corporate deposit account. The UFA provides protections from such liabilities and was adopted by Wisconsin in 1925. Wis. Stats. Section 112.01(9) of the UFA provides standards whereby a bank can obtain protection from claims involving the acts of a customer's fiduciaries. In this case, that section forms the basis of Koss Corporation's claim that Park Bank acted in bad faith.* The Court broke 112.01(9) down into three standards by which a bank could be liable:
- When a bank had actual knowledge of the unlawful conduct of a fiduciary;
- When a bank had knowledge of sufficient facts to show that it acted in bad faith by honoring a fiduciary's withdrawals from the principal's account; or,
- When a drawee bank accepts its own check in payment of or as security for a personal debt of the fiduciary at the drawee bank, contrary to the interest of the principal.
Koss Corporation alleged, based upon 112.01(9), that Park Bank's transactions were done in bad faith. Because neither 112.01(9) nor the rest of the UFA defines bad faith, its definition became the issue before the Court.
While the Court ruled that Park Bank did not act in bad faith, the lead and concurring opinions reached this conclusion by different means. The lead opinion and the concurring opinion define bad faith differently. The significance of this will be discussed below. First, it is important to examine both opinions.
The lead opinion began its analysis with the UFA's definition of good faith to construe a definition of bad faith. By that definition, a thing is done in good faith when it is done honestly, whether it be done negligently or not. Thus, the lead opinion concluded that bad faith must involve something more than negligent bank conduct, in which the bank acted dishonestly. The concurring opinion agreed with this portion of the lead's analysis.
In creating its test for bad faith the Court's lead opinion set forth the following standard:
- Bad faith is reviewed on a transaction by transaction basis.
- Bad faith is determined at the time of breach of fiduciary duty.
- Bad faith is an intentional tort. Negligence is insufficient to show bad faith.
- Bad faith requires subjective intent.
The first component of the test means that even if an aggregate view of every transaction made by the fiduciary creates a pattern that reveals a breach of duty, that is still insufficient to establish bad faith. So, the facts known to each individual bank employee are not aggregated to form collective knowledge of the bank. Furthermore, whether a bank acted in bad faith is determined at the time of the breach of fiduciary duty, not by looking back at transactions that occurred many months earlier. Instead, the Court gave the example that a bank is liable to the principal if its action in a single transaction amounts to bad faith.
The lead opinion also concluded that bad faith is an intentional tort. Thus, a finding of bad faith requires subjective, rather than objective, intent. Meaning, a bank's actions in relation to the breach must be intentional. Recall that a thing done in good faith is done honestly. So bad faith would mean an intentional, dishonest act, such as a bank that deliberately evades knowledge because of a belief or fear that an inquiry would disclose a vice or defect in the transaction. A clear example would be a bank that obtains actual knowledge of fiduciary misconduct, ignores investigating that misconduct in order to avoid discovering the defect, and continues with the transaction.
This is where the concurring opinion disagreed with the lead opinion. The concurring opinion rejected the lead's conclusion that bad faith requires willful and deliberate bank action. Instead, the concurring opinion set forth that bad faith requires evidence that a bank remained passive in the face of compelling and obvious facts suggesting fiduciary misconduct.
The distinction between the lead and concurring opinions turns on the matter of actual knowledge. The lead would require it. The concurrence would not, and instead would create a standard whereby something less than actual knowledge is required to find bad faith. Specifically, that standard would be a bank that remains passive in the face of compelling and obvious facts of misconduct.
The following is an example which explains these standards. Consider a fiduciary who writes a check on their employer's account to a department store. It later turns out that this check was drawn to pay for the fiduciary's personal expenses, resulting in a breach of duty. The lead opinion would ask: did bank have actual knowledge, and intentionally ignore that actual knowledge to avoid finding a defect in the transaction? If so, that is bad faith. The concurring opinion would ask: did the facts of the transaction suggest anything that should have been obvious enough to the bank to suggest it should investigate further into the transaction, and if so, did the bank fail to do so? If so, that is bad faith.
The lead and concurring opinions did reach the conclusion that Park Bank's activities did not amount to bad faith, and negligence does not amount to bad faith. That means that a higher standard than negligence must be proven to establish bad faith. However, because of the different standards proposed by both the lead and concurring opinions a question of law still exists as to: what is that standard? That is ultimately a complex question of jurisprudence and legal precedent beyond the scope of this article. Instead of exploring that issue, the remainder will focus on how banks should consider the results of Koss Corp. despite the lack of clarity in a test for bad faith.
The Koss Corp. case is still a win for the banking industry. The fact that Park Bank prevailed, and the Court's conclusion that negligence does not amount to bad faith should not be overshadowed by the legal complexities created by its opinion. Banks should review their deposit documentation, policies, and procedures, and seek to eliminate any practices that could be found to result in bad faith pursuant to the Court's opinion. This could mean a review for any practices that might result in "willful" bad faith or "passive" bad faith to avail itself of potential protections under either of the Court's standards. For a review of bank's policies, WBA recommends working with its legal counsel.
WBA will continue to monitor the results of Koss Corp. and report whether a bad faith standard becomes clear. It may require application in a lower court first, where a decision of what test to apply would need to be made.
Read the Koss Corp. decision.
* The UFA provides protections for banks. This case was unique in that the UFA was presented as the basis for a complaint rather than as a defense. The Court's opinion is still significant in understanding that defense.

Celebrity Context: noun. The knowledge that celebrities are, in fact, human.
I was reading an article in an online newspaper, minding my own business, when I happened to notice the sidebar. You know, where they keep all the bits about other articles they think you should read? Anyway, as I looked, the sidebar was full of celebrity nonsense that I don't understand why anyone would be interested in. And really, when you put it in a different context, the "news" is downright dull. I mean, the kind of dull that if a friend told you the same story about themselves, your mind would wander. If a stranger told you, you'd think they were narcissistic.
Let me give you an example. Let's say your next door neighbor went to the beach. Is that interesting? No, not really. Let's say that neighbor took his or her kids to the beach. Is that interesting? Nope. Unless, of course, you have some sort of hand in raising their kids, I guess. But, if that is not interesting then why on earth would someone care if a movie star went to the beach?
So, say a married friend of a friend of a friend is pregnant. Interesting? Not really. Maybe in a good-for-them kind of way, perhaps. What if said person was having pregnancy cravings. Would you seriously care to ask what kind of cravings if you've never even met the person? No? Then why do we care what kind of cravings a celebrity has?
This the part where many of you may stop and say, "But this has nothing to do with child-rearing. You have left what the core of the Mom-tionary." And this is where I say, "Nope, I'm getting there. Pay attention."
I don't want my kids falling over themselves at the sight of some star. I don't want them thinking that they are somehow under them because a celebrity's name is known farther. If there is some person in the limelight that has done something truly noble and they want to respect that person, that's OK with me. But really. I think enough is enough. That is why I will be teaching my kids that a movie star is nothing more than someone who is good at their job, their job being an actor.

Chris Cicero's day job is in IT, but he moonlights with Batman and Deadpool.
The lanky 29-year-old entrepreneur is prepping to present his third annual comic convention at the Doubletree Hotel on U.S. 202 in November. Thy Geekdom Con II drew 800 fans to the Crowne Plaza in Claymont last year.
Billed as "a celebration of all things geek," this year's show will feature comic book panels, artists, board games, video-game tournaments, anime, game-centric crafters, cosplay contests and FGC. Non-geeks may need some scaffolding to understand "cosplay" and "FGC," although both are popular enough to have warranted stories in the Wall Street Journal.
Cosplayers dress up as their favorite characters and frequently do battle with four-foot foam hammers and swords of jumbo proportion.
"FGC" stands for the fighting game community, an e-sports subgroup so serious about their video games that there's bracketing involved.
Thy Geekdom Con bulks up every year. Cicero grew it from a small Wyndham over the Pennsylvania line in 2014 to 10,000 square feet at the Crowne Plaza in 2015, to this year's 14,400-square-foot venue.
And, by keeping a close eye on costs and leaning on family and load-bearing friends for help, he's already covered this year's costs with past profits.
"We keep overhead down," he said. "The priority is getting a nice venue people are going to enjoy. A lot of people try to get a dinky venue. That's not going to work. There's no need to overspend on things. We know people just want to have fun."
"The rest is keeping it in the family. We don't have to pay people much money. And, right now, we don't pay for any celebrities because, a lot of times, [organizers of other conventions] get people but they don't get enough people to warrant paying for them," he said.
Thy Geekdom passes on national celebs, but it does feature authors and comic book experts and popular draws like Jeff Jordan, who bills himself as "the world's tallest hypnotist" at 6 foot, 8 inches.
Running a fandom convention is a zipper merge of Cicero's interests and his business management classes. A native New Yorker, he started playing video games on the wall of screens at F.A.O. Schwarz's flagship store at age 4½. After he saw "Star Wars," he took up fencing. His family took a road trip to Forest Hills, the Queens neighborhood where the fictional hero Peter Parker, a.k.a. Spider Man, grew up.
"I played too many video games growing up," Cicero joked. "I have a lot of comic books. A lot of movies. I have video-game paraphernalia. Life-sized weapons from video games. Resin replicas. I'm a collector."
The biggest difference between his day job and his weekend job: "When you go to work in an office, you know pretty much what you're going to do that day."
During the April-to-June and September-and-October convention seasons, a con organizer can find himself face-to-waist to a hulking cosplay character or checking to make sure weapons are foam.
Jackie and Peter Cicero are their son's business partners, and their influence is obvious. It was Jackie Cicero who chose a top-notch venue from the get-go.
And Thy Geekdom is a family event, so profanity is banned.
Ditto the woman who wanted to do burlesque, which was cool, but insisted on wearing only pasties and a merkin, which was not.
And, at a con where more than half the attendees come in costume, ditto on derisive comments on anyone else's cosplay. "Some of the cosplayers get uptight. They say, 'Oh, you can't be this character because this character isn't short and fat.' If that happens, we give you the boot," Chris Cicero said.
Nationally, con-goers spend between $100 and $500 at fan events — in addition to the cost of tickets, parking and food, so Thy Geekdom features a variety of vendors who pay $55 for tables.
One head-turner at last year's vendor section was the dead-baby doll — baby dolls professionally painted to look dead. Their opaque eyes are lifeless. Some have fangs and drops of blood on their chins. "You'll see people proudly going through the whole convention with those dolls," Jackie Cicero said. "I asked one woman, 'You bought one of those dolls?' she said, 'Oh, yeah, I collect them — in my bedroom.' I appreciate the work they put into it but … "
Kevin Helmes, who sold green-screen photos of cosplayers at both Thy Geekdom Cons, said Cicero's convention crowds were slim to start out but they're getting better every year and his prices — $75 for a 10-by-20-foot space — are very favorable. "I've looked into cons where they wanted me to spend $300 a day, and another one where they wanted me to rent out my own personal hotel room and also pay them for a hotel room," Helmes said.
With last year's ticket price at $5 and this year's at $10, the Ciceros try to keep the event affordable to millennials in a slumping economy. Most fandom conventioneers are 18 to 35.
Running a con is not all fun and games: "It's more work than people think. The weekends are spent at other conventions, either talking to potential attendees or vendors or whatever," Chris Cicero said. "It's all the time, especially on Facebook. There's no 9-to-5. I could be eating and somebody messages me. I stop what I'm doing. I'm OK with that."
Three years ago, Chris Cicero was just one of the two-thirds of all millennials who want to start their own businesses. Now he's a business owner.
"When you're working a job, you're not in control of your own fate. I find that the workforce is more about the big companies, not as about you as a person," he said. "When you do your own business, it's the best interest of me — Chris. And I know I'm not going to get randomly laid off."

scribes had lost their way and given into worldly things. Like the prophets before him, Jesus is calling out the establishment and serving notice the end is near for them if they do not repent and listen to the good news. The old law is about to be replaced and the one sacrifice for all and for all time is about to be replaced and the new temple is present. The Israelites had once again failed the covenant with God and now a new covenant was being started but only after cleansing the old temple. Ironically the old law and temple was replaced by the caretakers of it by killing Jesus. Jesus replaced the old law and presented a new code or way of love or living in the love of God. He stressed that the commandments were only two, Love God and love your neighbor as yourself. In those two commandments are summed up all the law and the prophets. No longer was humanity to be burdened. The codes and laws and prescriptions of the scribes and pharisees are to be gone. Yet, even now humanity sometimes gets carried away with law and regulation. From such we need to be vigilant and remember. Jesus is our savior and has died and risen for us. He did that we might be free to love, unconstrained to find our way to Him. We must avoid placing anything that is an obstacle to God.

St. Paul was a Pharisee who was totally committed to the ruling group. His devoutness and devotedness set him apart in wanting to quickly rid Israel of what he saw as a new and dangerous cult called Christians. To him, they are going against the law and prophet and teaching a new way, teaching a resurrection, and even replacing the Torah. To him, they were trying to replace everything. As a result he took action by getting "warrants" to arrest these Christians and set out for Damascus. It was on that road where he met Jesus, and he was never the same again. His encounter on the way totally life changing. It is then that he learns and believes in Jesus and becomes an avid follower. Yet, in our first reading, we see the difficulty he has of being accepted. Ultimately, he was and of course took Christ's teaching and went far and wide and spread the seeds or shoots of the vine where ever he went. .
Today that vine of our third reading remains and the fruit it bears depends on the care that we ourselves have given it. This means we must work at it. What it produce requires our attention. Christ calls every day, we respond with our attention and prayer. It's as easy as lifting our heart or mind and doing the right thing. We are called to make those choices every day.The start of a healthy vine and a Christian is with their self. our personal relationship with God and our relationships and interactions with others determines the health of the vine and our worthiness as part of it. We all know the challenges of the relationships and are called to be Christ like in our daily life.
Meditation March 25, 2018 Palm Sunday
After reading the passion, we can see the cruelty and evil that is in the world come out. Even today we see harsh and even cruel punishment. Torture and even death still today are used to intimidate and control. Christ came with a message opposite to humanity's dark side so to speak, preaching God's love and mercy and forgiveness. His message endured, but the battle rages on between good and evil. So often the question is asked "why is there evil in the world?" yet do we ever ask what we do to prevent it. As we enter our holy days, let us remember that yes the Lord suffered, and died. Also that he was Human and divine. Yet his death and resurrection remain a mystery that will be revealed at our own death and rising. Today, I urge you to focus on the reading of the passion the you have previously heard and below is the link to the reading itself.
Homily, March 4, 2018- the 3rd Sunday of Lent
Homily February 18, 2018- the 1st Sunday of Lent
Over the years we have learned that living in the middle east, the culture was tribal and family centered. A person's home town was like an anchor or stake that centered or protected a person in a world where a single or unattached person was seen to be in danger. We see today in the gospel and from the last few weeks, that Jesus has left Nazareth. He has encountered John the Baptist(and been baptized, but not in Mark's gospel) and now we see Mark say the Spirit drove Jesus into the desert. In Mark, there is kind of urgency for Jesus to get to the desert. It is as if in those forty days, Jesus was communing and preparing with a different family. Spiritually he was preparing his ministry, being attended by the angels and in his new family meeting Satan and what that entailed. Perhaps, his first encounter with Satan away from the protection of his earthly family. But with his time of preparation done and John having been arrested, Jesus went to Galilee and began to preach: "This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel."
As we ponder that today, I would like to say we all have busy schedules and not a whole lot of time for lent. But most of you have smart phone and tablets or computers and email. I would suggest for lent that you can get the daily Mass readings for lent in an email every day simply by signing up at the catholic bishops site on-line. It is free and you can read it where ever you read your email. In this way you can receive a thought each day as Easter approaches. The link is below.
Homily, February 4, 2018-the 5th Sunday in Ordinary Time
In the gospel, we see Jesus leave the Synagogue and go to Peter's house. Peter's mother-in-law is sick with a fever and Jesus heals her and helps her up. She then waits on Jesus and his disciples. After sundown when the sabbath ends, the sick from the town start to come to Jesus to be healed. The following morning, Jesus arose early and set out alone in the desert. Later when his disciples caught up, he said it was time to move on. He said he had not come to heal, but to teach the word of God. So he continued on. Jesus, more than any of us was aware of a mission, of a reason he was here. Unlike ourselves, he avoided distractions and continued his journey. His life, his service, his love left much for his disciples and followers who followed and came after him to do and imitate. His journey was to give his message to the whole world and so it has been for his followers. But the world today is not perfect, nor has it been in any century. The twentieth century, the last one, was filled with war and ugliness that people could impose on their peers. Violence, and war seems to be a part of what people are. But why? People are kind and loving with their own, why not beyond the family and the boundaries of town and country. Jesus taught who was our neighbor, and ultimately our neighbor is the one who can express love and care for others. Everything we do for a neighbor, a brother or sister, we do for a loving, unifying reason. More
than anything, we are called to reach out to the Jobs of this world. Even in our time there are those filled with despair and the drudgery of daily life. They need our support and help. We should reach out and offer a hand, a word, some solace. After all, we all have a bad time a some point or another. None of us can do it alone without God's help and those around us.

I want to take a look at what St Paul's letter said this morning. It seems that in many ways he seems to criticize everybody. He says being single means that a person is free to be concerned about things of the Lord. Married people, he says, are concerned about their spouse and things of the world. Yet in the very beginning of Genesis, we see God say
it is not good for a person to be alone. In fact, Christ made marriage a Sacrament because it is the very normal and spiritual way that most are called to follow Christ to salvation. It is a partnership of love centered in Christ. Certainly married couples have troubles and all the problems of the world, but you know single people have problems too. Being single does give more time, but being alone, childless is not always the gift he makes it seem. Further he seems to imply that married people are less spiritual than single people. It is just not true, as there are multitudes of holy and spiritual married people. For some reason, the church through the centuries has focused on the single people, the religious, the clerics. But let's be honest, the church is made up of all the baptized. Sanctity and sainthood comes for all who live their lives in the faith and love of Jesus Christ.
So, to sum up, I would say we should realize that the married person, and the single person(whether lay, religious or clergy) reflect God's love in different ways and different paths. Yet, truly, God has made each of us individually and calls us each individually, except those who are married, he has said that then two have become one flesh.
Homily, January 21, 2018 -The 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time
Today's gospel from Mark gives a slightly different account of Jesus' call of his disciples. First we see that John the Baptist has been arrested, and also that Jesus has started his ministry. This means that the disciples had an awareness of him and possibly that is why they answered his invitation so readily. God's call did not always come easy in Israel's history. Many of the prophets only reluctantly answered God's call. A prime example was Jonah in our first reading. But we see that in the end God got his way even with the reluctant. Jesus was preaching that it was time to repent and believe the good news. He had a message and it was new. But first a person must repent, turn around, change and hear the good news. Hearing the good news means attaching oneself to Jesus. That was the ultimate turn around, made first by Jesus' disciples and passed on even to us today. Jesus' call was to a way of life, to a lifestyle, to living together in a community he came to call a church. It entails a whole new way of life and worship, that Jesus began by fulfilling God's plan that included even his dieing and his resurrection. The good question today is can we with all the interruptions and daily problems still commit ourselves fully to Christ as the First disciples, who left their Father and their boats and followed Jesus. Surely sometimes it is easy, but at other time it is difficult and challenging. But we must remember always we have Jesus and the Strength of his Cross to get us through whatever we face.
Homily January 14, 2018 the 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
The readings today are about calling. First we heard the call of Samuel. Even the older prophet Eli did not realize God was calling until the third time and so Samuel answered on the fourth call. In the gospel, we see the call of the Apostles first inspired by John the Baptist pointing to the "Lamb of God" and the person of Jesus leading them to ask what he was doing. I say doing because where are you staying is exactly what they meant. They meant what are you about. In our own way we all have been called through our baptism by way of our parents. I also submit that in our lives, we have at times answered Christ's call as we have lived out our life in the choices we have made, especially at key moments in our life. It is at those moments when we prayed, thought or ultimately opened our hearts to listen, to discern what was right, what was God's call for me. That is the key to hear and listen to God's word and how it affects us. I must say that sometimes that call says what we don't want to hear, but ultimately listening and acting in accordance with that call usually brings us to a comfortable result, one that eases our life's burdens. The hard part is discerning God's intention especially if it entails a change in our life that we perceive as difficult. God calls many to serve and in various ways, Most of us will never be asked to travel to far away places, but in today's world we are called to help and reach out to the starving and homeless of the world as best we can. We are asked to live and act toward others as Christ did. As a community we do that in many ways and I encourage our community to continue and listen as we begin this new year.

Bishop Class
Becoming a Bishop
To become a bishop you have to be LV120. Where do you receive this upgrade? It is in a place called Ripley.
Why Choose the Path of a Magician to Cleric to Priest and finally to Bishop?
Well as you should know, magician is a popular class and is pretty fun to play on. But once you are a Cleric, leveling becomes very slow but on the up-side, you will get a lot richer than most classes. Then when your a Priest, you become amazingly powerful and popular for every party needs a Priest to Heal, Bless, etc. them. But at level 120, once your a Bishop, you will become the most powerful type of character in Maplestory. All because of Genesis (basic attack of 670 when mastered which is more than 6 times as powerful than Shining Ray).
As a magician, you will level up very fast during levels 21-25 (at that level I trained on Horny Mushrooms) Then when you become a Cleric, you should always master Heal first (even if you are a solo, party, two-timer (both partying and soloing) cleric. Leveling will be fast during levels 30-40 when you train on Zombie Mushroom and occasionally Jr. Wraiths (still takes a long time though)From levels 40-50, I'd suggest Ludi Party Quest or if you a solo cleric go to Jr. Wraiths or just do quests that offer a good amount of exp. From levels 50-70, a lot of people say it will take a long time. I don't know myself because my highest level chracter was only level 40 (*sob*). I'll suggest Wraiths, all three kinds of Chronos, and once you are above level 55 maybe Coolie Zombies. You should mass heal them, no magic claw or maybe holy arrow for individuals. Well hopefully now you are a level 70 priest. Here on if you want some fun, go ahead and take on Jr. Balrog (take on Crimson Balrog onces you master Shining Ray). Otherwise, just keep on hunting Coolie Zombies. If it gets boring, try killing the Ghosts at Zipangu but make sure your about level 73. At level 80, go ahead and kill the Phantom Watches at Ludi as your average everyday monsters for decent exp. At level 90, you might try to take on Crimson Balrog because they have very good drops (all 10% scrolls). At level 100, try Pianus with other party members or try Papulatus with other party members too. Make sure when you are facing these bosses to have atleast one party member who is level 120 or higher. At level 110, you might as well take on any boss (except Zakum and the bosses at Showa) Maplestory has to offer. At level 120, you become a Bishop! Hurray! But the sad part is... You won't have your special Bishop skills (not the common ones that every class gets). How do you get them? Well, there are quests that have 4th job skills as the reward. You need to take those quests to receive your ultimate skills.

Art Talk: Season's Greetings From Rob Sketcherman
If you walk down Hollywood Road towards SOHO's direction, it is not hard to notice the eye-catching mural that features iconic Hollywood figures like Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Charlie Chaplin and Audrey Hepburn. The 11-metre-tall mural outside the Madera Hollywood hotel soon became a colourful focal point in downtown Central Hong Kong. And little does one know, this huge mural was actually created with just an iPad and a stylus by Rob Sketcherman, one of Hong Kong's first iPad urban sketch pioneers.
Having been commissioned by Moleskine to chronicle the entire 39th Hong Kong International Film Festival, Rob has worked on portrait drawing projects with BMW, global workshops with Apple, and some projects that change Hong Kong's cityscape. The Hong Kong-born artist is also a frequenter of Hong Kong Classic Car Show and is enthusiastic about drawing vintage cars despite sketching street scenes being his specialty. We sat down for a chat with Rob to talk about digital art and asked him to send his festive greetings to our audience:
Tell us about your iPad urban sketching. How did it all start?
It started five to six years ago when I started dabbling in urban sketching before I knew what it was. I used to draw on large sketch pads and I loved figure drawing on large canvases. But since we live in a cramped city like Hong Kong, space is a luxury and soon I fell for the portability and flexibility iPad can offer.
I was amazed by how easy it was to work with an iPad because I never had to scan in my sketches anymore and colour correction was no longer a concern. Sketching on an iPad also grants me a "super power" – invisibility. In this digital era where everybody has a smart device or tablet, nobody really pays attention at me when I sit in a corner and sketch on my iPad. I love the fact that it's convenient as I can set up and pack up in a matter of seconds, so I can just start sketching whenever inspiration strikes.

Have you always wanted to be an artist?
My mum said I started drawing at the age of two. Even then, I would try to move my artworks to walls or larger surfaces. I always knew that I was going to do something creative. Urban sketching is something that I've been doing for the past four years and I realised this is what I am meant to do.
Tell us about your most unforgettable project you've worked on.
I was invited by Turismo de Portugal along with three other urban sketchers from different countries for a collaboration this May. During my time in Fátima, I had to do sketches of the festival that celebrated 100th anniversary of the miracle of Fatima as the Pope was going to attend the celebration too. I was selected because I am known for drawing people and I also represented the Far East and digital medium. We all just spent the whole time in Portugal mingling, interacting with local people, and exploring the town and local delicacies.
Do you have any advice for people who would like to create art on smart tablets?
First of all, equipment is very important. It will not be satisfying if you don't have the right kit. I happen to use an iPad Pro, an Apple pencil and Procreate, the app that I use – altogether it's a magic combination.
My suggestion for aspiring sketchers will be starting with sketching something you really love. It could be objects, vases, animals, or cars. Pick something you absolutely love that you observe in your daily life, and just draw that. It is the daily practice that counts.
What influence do you think digital art will have on contemporary art development?
It's a growing medium. I tested out iPad sketching with the first generation of iPad and David Hockney made it a legitimate medium. Although I do encounter skeptics nowadays who question where digital art falls into the category of contemporary art, I think there is a niche for everything and this is an upcoming trend that its potential has not been explored to the fullest. With digital art, you are not limited by how large your artwork can be.
A lot of the apps that I use allow me to explore time lapses. So it gives a whole new dimension to my creations as my clients and audience can understand me better as an artist. For exhibitions, digital art certainly can deliver a different art experience as artworks no longer have to be static, and audience will be able to see the creative process including errors made by the artist. Many people want to understand how things are done, and digital art just happens to open that door for us.

Reading, Writing, Auto Repair: Two in Three Parents Say Their Teen is 'Clueless' or 'Average' About Car Maintenance
AutoMD.com launches Teen Driver Car Maintenance and Repair Guide
CARSON, Calif., Sept. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Classes are back in session in schools across the U.S. and that means an increasing number of teen drivers are back on the nation's highways. While a majority of teenagers take driver's education courses to learn the rules of the road, many don't understand the steps required to keep their cars properly maintained and running safely.
A recent AutoMD.com survey of parents of teenage drivers(1) revealed the following:
- 97 percent said if online information about the basics of car repair were available to their teen, they would encourage him/her to use it.
- Two-thirds rated their teen's basic knowledge of car maintenance as "somewhat or completely clueless," or "average."
- The majority – 62 percent – said it was "extremely important" for teens to be educated about the basic parts of a car, in addition to how to drive it.
- Nearly 80 percent said their teen will turn to Mom or Dad to learn about auto repair, versus six percent who indicated their teen would learn auto repair basics in a driver's education course.
AutoMD.com says that understanding the fundamentals of car repair knowledge is just as (if not more!) important for school age drivers as for the general population. This prompted the company to develop a car repair educational resource specifically for teens.
"It was not surprising to us that many of the parents surveyed indicated that their teen driver was relatively clueless about auto repair, nor that their teens were most familiar with the simplest task of filling the gas tank," said Brian Hafer, VP of Marketing for AutoMD.com. "We suspect many adults have gaps in their auto repair knowledge as well, which is why we developed this guide to help parents begin the conversation of responsible vehicle ownership with their teen driver – and provide them with resources to help ensure that the basics are covered."
Features of the AutoMD.com Teen Driver Car Maintenance and Repair Guide include:
- A vehicle diagram and glossary to help teens identify key components of a car
- A Do-It-Yourself (DIY) vehicle maintenance checklist
- DIY vehicle repair instructions for basic maintenance/repair jobs
- A list of car maintenance and repair "Tips and Tricks"
- Car repair safety information
- Roadside safety tips
- A car maintenance quiz
- A Certificate of Commitment
Hafer says the AutoMD.com Certificate of Commitment is an especially important part of the company's Teen Driver Car Maintenance and Repair Guide. Requiring signatures by both teens and their parents, it serves as a teenage driver pledge to routinely maintain their vehicles, not only to protect their safety but also to maintain the value of their car.
AutoMD.com surveyed parents at its website and across 15 automotive shopping and enthusiast websites in the Jumpstart Automotive Group network – a network representing more than 14 million monthly car shoppers at Vehix, Car and Driver, JD Power Autos, Road & Track and more.
Nick Matarazzo, Jumpstart's CEO, said the time has come for teen driver auto repair education. "Car shoppers and owners who visit the sites in Jumpstart's network understand the importance of routine car maintenance and repair. It's essential for teen drivers to understand these same principles, not only from a safety and reliability perspective but from a financial perspective too. A car is an investment. Routine maintenance and repair help protect that investment."

Getting cosy in Oslo
Oslo Design Fair 2016 – The Return of Cosy.
On yet another dismal November Sunday afternoon (come on weather!), coffee cup in hand, a new look for the annual design fair in Oslo caught my designer eye. Images of beautifully crafted homewares and seriously fun advertsing were drawing me in and somehow I saw past Norway's even shorter, colder days and began planning a mini Nordic adventure…
The Design Fair itself was held in Lillestrom, a small town just outside the main city. In January, surrounded by snow, it made for a pretty inspiring setting for a showcase of design – but only once inside, did the full scale of the event become apparent – room upon room of new design and interior products were on display from more than 400 exhibitors! Time for some speed viewing.
The overall theme for this years' fair was 'The Return of Cosy' – exploring what it takes to make a home cosy and how to bring warmth and a more personal, cosier feel to your home. This extended into a showcase of "cosy" rooms in which top Norwegian interior stylists were invited to create their interpretation of the theme.
"The home is a place where we can recharge our batteries, a place that should make us feel safe, calm and energised. We surround ourselves with beautiful, lasting things that mean something to us – and create a positive atmosphere." (Oslo Design Fair)
Sat in the middle of it all, surrounded by inspiration, with a new, curiously strong, black coffee in hand (that's how they role out here!) – this place was certainly starting to feel cosy.
There was a strong sense a of quality craftsmanship and the use of authentic materials in much of the products on show – things built to last – particularly apparent in brands like Village, who wear their mission statement on their sleeve:
Some of the others who have already made their mark across Scandinavia and more southerly European climes needed much less of an introduction (The big boys, like Bloomingville and Ferm Living were there in force), but most were independent designers, new to the scene and using the fair as a launch pad into the public eye.
A particular highlight for me was the decadent lifestyle brand, Nordstjerne – specialising in extremely glamorous home accessories (and beautifully styled photography). You wouldn't think their key materials of marble and brass would naturally lend themselves to being warm and cosy, but throw in a pairing of velvet, suede or the rich grain of polished walnut and the hard edge pieces simply melt into their surroundings.
So what started as an idle thought over a slightly less strong cup of coffee had become a whistle stop tour through the cutting edge of Scandi-design. The 'Return of Cosy' felt like a home from home, and given the sheer depth of creativity on show, it could well warrant another return to Oslo for more fun at the fair next year..

Sen. Edward Kennedy's skills were never more successful and constant than in the area of civil rights: for minorities, for women, for the disabled and for immigrants.
Over nearly five decades, the Massachusetts Democrat, who died Tuesday at age 77, assumed an increasingly important role in framing the nation's civil rights laws and in leading the opposition to Supreme Court nominees he viewed as hostile to civil rights.
Perhaps it was the NINA — No Irish Need Apply — signs his grandfather told him about in Boston. Perhaps it was the moral legacy left unfinished by his assassinated brothers. Whatever the reason, Kennedy long identified with those who are left out and left behind. Over the course of almost a half-century in the Senate, Kennedy would lead the fight for enactment of a truly astonishing list of civil rights laws.

40 Cool Tattoo Shop & Parlor Names
Tattoos are such a beautiful form of art, both expressive and unique. For someone to come to you for one is truly an honor—they are trusting you to put something permanent on their body! That's an awful lot of trust to instill into a stranger. But, hopefully they won't remain strangers!
Attracting customers to a newly opened studio can be quite the task. Not only should you have good advertising and an amazing portfolio out in the open for all to view, but you need to have a catchy name to get the attention of people in the first place. That and a good location, and you have the recipe for a successful business!
Coming up with a name for a business is never an easy thing to do. It is something that should never be rushed, either. Your business name will become a part of your face and reputation, and will (hopefully) be around for a very long time.
It's also important that the name is something that looks good on a billboard or in lights on the front of a building.

Business Ideas
Here are a few tips that should be considered when brainstorming tattoo shop names:
Name of the artist. Artists should be known by name, so it never hurts to use it in a business name!
Location. Using the street name or general area name will help potential customers remember your location.
Think tattoo. Anything tattoo-related goes well in tattoo shop names, of course, i.e., ink, needle, art, etc.
Make it fierce. Who wants to get inked up at a shop that portrays puppy dogs and rainbows? This is not a business for toddlers.
Use your talents. If you are seasoned in custom tattoos or portraits, or any other form of tattoos, let everyone know in your name!
Don't forget that tattoo shops are seemingly on every corner these days, so competition is tough! Having a name that is truly unique and stands out, can mean the difference between a customer walking into your doors, or passing you up for the next shop.
Choosing a Name
You get the drift. Shop names need to make it clear exactly what goes on inside: Tattoos! If you are having trouble coming up with your own names, or maybe you are stuck between a few, try a few of these tips out to help decide on a name:
Tattoo party! As long as the environment is a sterile one, invite friends and family over for a naming party, offer a free, small tattoo in lieu of a few good name ideas! Don't tattoo those who have been drinking though, of course.
Coin toss. Have two names in mind but really can't decide? Flip a coin!
Take a vote or survey. Polling friends and family, and even strangers can help give you an idea of what people think of the potential shop names, which will also help you realize which ones they find most attractive!
Design a logo. If you have a logo in mind, put it down on some paper and see how each name looks with it. This can work well for the visual thinker!
Artists find inspiration in the strangest of places. It's one of the things that makes them an artist! So until you think of the name, make sure you are looking for ideas in everything you do, including your routine, day-to-day tasks. Just like doing a tattoo, this is not something that should be rushed, because it will be permanent.

Evian is the Pure Water from the French Alps: this Natural Mineral Water comes from a single source located at the heart of the French Alps, protected under a geological fortress built up by glaciers 30,000 years ago. Each drop of evian travels through a natural purifying filter within the mountains for 15 years, before emerging at the spring in Evian-Les-Bains.
Untouched by man and free from pollution, the microbiological composition of evian water is perfectly sound, with a unique balance in minerals. It gently caresses the palate and enhances the flavors of fine dining food and delicate wines. That is why evian® is used as the benchmark by tasters.
Evian is everywhere: it is the world's best-selling water, available in 145 countries, and it enjoys an exceptional visibility thanks to world-class communications. For instance, the newly-released Baby & Me copy reached over 50 million views in only 4 weeks. The brand is also the official sponsor of major sports events (US Open, Wimbledon, evian Championship) and teams up with famous designers (20th year of Limited Editions).
Now evian comes with Badoit, its sparkling companion: appreciated for its unique taste and its abundance of tiny bubbles, this naturally sparkling water originated from Saint Galmier, France, is carried by the most renowned French fine dining restaurants.

Kaitlyns Story I can't recommend Vicki highly enough. Thanks to Vicki and her
HypnoBirthing classes I had an amazing birthing experience. Vicki's enthusiasm and relaxed attitude combined with techniques and knowledge equipped me for a very positive birthing.
Due to last minute changes in my circumstances, my dad stepped in to be my birthing partner. I had a wonderful labour, breathing through my surges and when the time came to make our journey to the hospital we almost didn't make it. I ended up having my baby in the hospital toilet in A&E as I didn't have time to get to the delivery suite. What could have been a worrying experience was peaceful and calm thanks to all we had learned during our classes. My son Max has been a typical hypnobirthing baby, easy going and happy. I have very happy memories of the birthing preparations and delivery! The techniques work, you just have to put the practice in and do the home work! There isn't anything I would go back and change if I had the chance. It was a once in a life time experience!!
Mimms Story I went through the hypnobirthing course with Vicki when I was pregnant with my second child. I had a negative experience giving birth to my first child, I laboured for three days in a hospital setting and ended up having a very medicalised birth. I felt like I had let myself and my daughter down, and the whole experience was just not what I had wanted at all.

Table 1: Results of Linear Regression Models with Using a condom or request your partner use them every time you have sex as Dependent Variable.
Either age first used marijuana (P < 0.29) or self-reported lifetime uses of marijuana (P < 0.32) were demonstrated to be predictive of intent to use condoms. Likewise, the sex risk behaviors of age first willing had vaginal sex (p < 0.21), number of life time sexual partners (P < 0.73) and the number of partners during the last year prior incarceration (P < 0.42) did not predict study participants intent to use condoms. However, number of partners last month prior incarceration did approach statistical significance (P < 0.07). Results of our investigation do support that the occasions respondents reported consuming alcohol prior to having sex without a condom, was inversely related to the intent to use a condom and a statistically significant predictor of this outcome (β = -0.409; P < 0.001). This was also the observed with regards to occasions their partners used alcohol before having sex without a condom (β = -0.354; P < 0.001).
Although the occasions study participants used marijuana before having sex was shown to be a statically significant factor in and inversely proportional to intent to condom use intent (β = -0.258; P < 0.02), occasions their partners used marijuana before having sex without a condom was noted not to be significant (P < 0.19).

Cadillac Coupe DeVille
year: 1955
, 99999K miles
8 cylinders, Automatic transmission
blue with blue interior
Very nice Cadillac Coupe DeVille. Blue and white exterior with original blue interior. Runs well, recently serviced. EXTERIOR: Straight solid body, with nice but not perfect paint. Beautiful driver. The chrome and trim are in good original shape. There is some pitting etc.. They all look good, just not perfect. The rear bumper has the most pits. But the car looks great sitting in your driveway. Not so perfect you can't drive it to the grocery store, but people are still very impressed by it. INTERIOR: Original interior shows some wear, not perfect by any means. But original! Some small rips and places where the stitching has come out. Panels, headliner and glass in good condition. MECHANICAL: No known mechanical problems, inspection encouraged. The engine sounds great. It has just had a couple thousand spent on going through it mechanically. Again, it has not had a frame off restoration, but a nice fun car to collect or drive around. Drives well. Nice and quiet. starts, drives, and parks easily.
