A frustrated son recently wrote into a well-known advice columnist, lamenting the fact that his father refused to create a trust based estate plan or even a will that would designate how his property and various businesses should be handled in the event of his passing.
The son questioned whether such action was "selfish."
Our Mesa estate planning attorneys agree with the response given, which was essentially that, "Those who fail to plan, plan to fail."
We certainly understand that such topics may not be comfortable to discuss because it forces us to face our own mortality. Some take the tack of having "plenty of time" to take care of such matters.
Of course, the truth is, none of us are guaranteed tomorrow, no matter how healthily and righteously we live. In a sense, it is selfish to burden your grieving family members with the task of sorting out your affairs – especially if, as in this case, they may be somewhat complicated.
According to the letter writer, the father had impressively established a small real estate "empire" of about three dozen multifamily residential homes. He was very hands-on in managing these properties, taking on every duty from collections and evictions to routine maintenance and repairs.
However, the legal structure of the operation was somewhat of a patchwork, with certain properties owned solely by him, others by him and his second wife and others under the LLC he had formed. His first wife (mother of the letter writer) lived in a home that his father (and possibly stepmother) own. The letter writer's sister and her husband recently decided to quit their jobs to help the father manage and possibly someday take over the business, though there was no structured succession plan in place.
The letter writer noted that he was just fine on his own financially and that he wasn't highly concerned about an inheritance. The bigger issue was the legal mess he, his sister, his mother and stepmother (with whom he wasn't close) would have to sort through should his father die without an estate plan.
This of course is a legitimate concern. It's also the kind of discussion we expect more and more people will be confronting as the population ages. Baby boomers have been an especially entrepreneurial generation, with a 2011 survey by Guidant Financial revealing that roughly 84 percent of new business owners are between the ages of 40 and 60. It is believed when the economy tanked, many people took the opportunity and the savings they had left to attempt to strike out on their own, as may have been their dream all along.
A fair number have found success.
Now, they owe it to their families to ensure their affairs are properly in order. The last thing you want is for your passing to drive a wedge between those you care about the most. Such legal wrangling is likely to cost them not only emotionally, but financially as well.
Better that you handle it now on your own.
For adult children hoping to have such issues resolved, you may want to approach the issue by providing your parent or parents with the names of a qualified estate planner in their area and offering to set up a meeting. Sometimes, helping them take that first step can be all the push they need.

'Happiness Program' bringing yoga, meditation techniques to UF campus
Published: Monday, April 7, 2014 at 3:02 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, April 7, 2014 at 3:02 p.m.
The evening Camille Mekwinski learned about a course called YES+ being offered on the University of Florida campus, she had a "statics" assignment due later that night.
If you go
What: YES+ course, offered by Art of Living
Where: University of Florida
Course dates: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evening, 6-9:30 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Cost: $250
To sign up: http://secure.artofliving.org/course_details.aspx?course_id=16421 or email firstname.lastname@example.com
"I went to an intro session. It was great — we learned a breathing technique and did a little bit of yoga and meditation," said Mekwinski, now a UF senior in environmental engineering.
"Afterwards I felt really relaxed, which was good because I was getting really stressed out about my assignment. (The intro session) helped clear my mind."
Mekwinski's experience is, in a nutshell, what the course aims to do.
YES+, which is also called "the Happiness Program," is one of the many courses offered by an international organization called the Art of Living, which is based in India but has centers all over the world.
The $250 courses include some meditation and yoga, but what makes the program unique, members say, is the teaching of an ancient rhythmic breathing technique called the Sudarshan Kriya.
"(The technique) helps clean out the body and calm down the mind, and also balances the emotions," said Annelies Richmond, one of the first teachers of the YES+ course, which is targeted at college-age students and young professionals but open to people of all ages.
Richmond, who is based in Virginia Beach, Va., will be traveling to Gainesville this week to teach the course, which still has seats available.
Richmond added that the breathing technique helps guide people into meditation, a task that can otherwise be hard to achieve in a society that's inundated with nonstop communication, from text messages and emails to YouTube videos and round-the-clock news broadcasts.
"You need some tools to take you into meditation in this day and age," Richmond said, adding that the technique also is said to bring more joy and energy to peoples' lives.
"That's why it's called the Art of Living (organization). It's about opening peoples' eyes ... connecting them to their true self and deeper purpose in life."
The course lasts five days, starting Wednesday evening, and is held weekday evenings and Saturday and Sunday afternoon. Apart from the breathing technique, yoga and meditation, there are a lot of interactive, community-building activities, Richmond said. That's important because after taking the course, people can continue to attend weekly follow-up sessions for free — wherever they happen to be.
Also, even though it lasts only five days, many people experience it as a retreat, Richmond said.
That's how Mekwinski described her experience.
"It's like a vacation even though it's still on campus," she said.
Mekwinski continues to practice with the Gainesville group every week, and she has become more involved with the organization, taking other retreats in silence and volunteering in India.
She said the breathing technique has helped her concentrate more on her schoolwork and also appreciate the present moment. She said she thinks a lot of students could benefit from what the course has to offer.
"When I walk by, a lot of students seem rushed and stressed out," she said. "But college is a once in a life. I don't want them to realize that afterwards. They need to learn to enjoy the present moment."

City of Heroes/Villians is the big one for me.
Spellborn was a really fun game I miss as well, tanking as a blood warrior was a lot of fun, very similar to a blood mage in Vanguard. The people running the game just couldn't get it together...I wish it had been sold to someone who actually planned/could've done something with the game. Disney just took it and completely abandoned it iirc.
MxO was also fun, played it a good bit with some people from school back in the day.
Seems like it's always the games that try to genuinely do something different end up getting canned.

This and
In a world of sharp knives, you would be a spoon.
I was going to say the usual, Pre Trammel UO, Dark Age of Camelot, early EQ, ect, but I realized its not true.
I miss Middle Earth Online.
For many MMOs they're dead and gone and can't be brought back. With MEO, I watch as its bastardized and renamed remains continue to swindle money out of WoW burnouts.
Middle Earth Online had the best pre-release MMO community of any game I've ever seen. No fans were more devoted to that game and that universe. There were so many posts from veteran MMO developers who were hell bent on making an accurate Middle Earth that characters could LIVE in, and spend their time interacting with the races and exploring. They got to a playable alpha state (which in today's terminology would be called an early closed beta) and then...
Then Turbine won exclusive rights to it (before they were developing with Tolkien Enterprises or something) and what do they do? They shuffle most of the veteran devs off to other projects and bring in a bunch of young ones, and proceed to remove almost every interesting feature. They replaced these features with invisible walls, instances, linear quest hubs, basically, they made it a WoW clone.
They split the EU and US community, something they promised they wouldn't do. Kinships fell apart, most of the veteran supporters left. The community got a hell of a lot worse. The game's tag line went from "Live in Middle Earth" to "Fight through Middle Earth!". And the name changed from MEO to Lord of the Rings Online.
Such was my devotion that I tried to play the game. I was in early alpha and I played and bought the game at release. But I lasted maybe a few weeks. It was just too horrible to keep going.

Dungeon Runners, as silly as it sounds :P I loved to log from time to time and slaughter hordes of minions in the search for rare weapons with extremely weird and funny names.
Me too. It was the perfect game for when you just wanted to go farm drops. I'm surprised to see someone mention it.
I sort of miss Lineage and wish both of those games were still around in the west. I would love to play them from time to time.
I miss Neocron. It was my first MMO and was a sandbox with open world PVP, with about 5 separate factions all wrapped up in a cyberpunk setting to include implants, network hacking, housing and with vehicles capable of carrying multiple characters to act as drivers or gunners depending on the vehicle.
I will always fondly remember my first day playing and being chased up a sewer ladder by another player trying to shove the equivalent of a lightsaber up me bunghole.
"If I offended you, you needed it" -Corey Taylor
An open world 3.5 edition D&D Forgotten Realms MMO.... with fps targetting and factional (and yes there are many many many Factions in the forgotten realms, so it would be 10s of factions that could all have treaties or not with eachother) PvP.
So actually it was never made... and those that got a chance at it, hurt the IP even more.
Best MMO experiences : EQ(PvE), DAoC(PvP), WoW(total package) LOTRO (worldfeel) GW2 (Artstyle and animations and worlddesign) SWTOR (Story immersion) TSW (story) ESO (character advancement)
I miss any MMO before 2003.... especially DAoC pre-ToA....
after that year MMOs became cool and the People I had very much enjoyed gaming with in MMOs got run over by 50 million screaming kids and yuppies. Nothing in MMOs has been the same since.
I still say the People that played MMOs before 2003 were infact a very different group of People than play MMOs since then, call me evil or a jerk if you want, but I won't mix words about it. The genre changed when the customers groups targeted with MMO advertizing changed. Even today what kind of Community a MMO has or has not is mostly decided by to WHOM you target the MMO's advertizing. MMO Communities are what they are NOW because of that.

The owners were extremely accommodating when we booked the house, we had two pets that were welcomed without any problems. We arrived a little early and we very happy that we were allowed to check in at that time. The home was beautifully decorated and all place settings were ready for use. Then was a problem with the clothes dryer and it was taken care of immediately, thanks so very much. The area was nice and close to all the areas we normally visit. This is our 6th year of visiting this area and we would high recommend to everyone to stay here. We normally travel and stay at least twice a year in different states, from the Shores to the Mountains and have never had a better experience. Thanks again so much, Ted and Robin. Just a small recommendation would be the addition of couple more baking dishes and large sauce pan.
Wonderful vacation - great house !!!

Wonderful vacation - great house !!!

Every year for the past 16 years I have taken my daughter & her children to Disney World. Now she is up to 6 children which means staying on Disney site is too costly. So we rent a house. This is the first year we have rented from Ann & Gary. We plan to rent from them whenever we go to Disney from now on. Ann was a dream to work with !!! This house was very comfortable for the eight of us. My grandchildren range from age 17 to 3 years. There was plenty of room for us to spread out and not be right on top of one another. My daughter & I each had our own bathroom and the kids shared the 3rd bathroom. The house was extremely clean and well cared for. It's always good to have a washer & dryer with that many kids - less clothes to bring when you can wash & wear them. We all loved the heated pool & hot tub. In years past with houses that we have rented the heat for the pool & hot tub always seemed cooler than we wished. But at this house the pool & especially the hot tub temps were perfect !!!! It was a 5 minute drive to a super Walmart which had everything we needed. The drive to the parks was not long although during the week there was some morning traffic. I would absolutely recommend this house and renting from Ann & Gary !!!!
Very nice vacation home!

Very nice vacation home!
July 25, 2016
This was a very nice vacation home! Myself along with 7 other members of my family stayed here for a week at Disney. It was about a 30 minute drive over to the parks for us. We were pleased with how much space we had with this house, and the pool & spa were great! Ann & Gary were very informative and helpful with all of my pre-trip questions! When we first arrived the air conditioning was not working properly and it was nearly 90 degrees in the home. The management person, Kendrick, was very quick to respond and called the repair man to come out to the home that night to have the issue fixed. The repair man, had the problem corrected within an hour or less. We spent the first 6 hours of our vacation with no air, but after being fixed the temp started coming down in no time. The vents as well as the floors could stand a good cleaning just like any other normal home. Overall, I was very pleased with this vacation home and my experience. I will most definitely be staying here again! :-)

March 13, 2016
Would like to give it 41/2 stars. Would recommend home to other travelers looking for a nice quite area to relax after a day at the theme parks or just stay put and enjoy the home. Ann and Gary were excellent to contact about renting their home, answered all of our questions in a very timely manner. Norm and Margaret who manage the unit for them are excellent at taking care of any items that needed to be fixed. They replaced phone batteries, a couple of light bulbs and contacted Brighthouse when the wifi stopped working and had a repair person there the next day. Kitchen was very well equipped, could use a few more dinner knives and the top of the blender. We had a couple of problems with the pool but Norm was able to get the heater and filter working again. The southern exposure and the quiet natural habitat was perfect for sitting in the sun from morning until night, and spending lots of hours in the pool. Our granddaughter learned how to swim when they came to visit for a week! Lots of linens and towels, great to have a washer and dryer you don't need to pack nearly as many clothes as you think. Nice area for walks each day. Walmart is just a short drive, close to 192 for all of the Disney outlet stores, flea markets, Old Town and Disney World. Would recommend this home for a holiday. Thanks for the memories!

Nice home with lots of space. It was nice to have a stroller available for use and the game tables for the kids to use. The maintenance company was quick to respond to a question and very polite and professional.

AWESOME Vacation
June 10, 2015
Our wonderful vacation experience was maximized with our stay in this magnificent vacation home. It was very clean, well maintained, the pool was a delight and it was a short drive to Disney World and shopping. However, upon arrival we were burdened with the trash of the previous occupants. Both the trash can and recycling can were overflowing with bags of trash in which buzzards had torn and still were tearing bags open and trash was strung through the yare and into the neighbors yard. This trash had to be picked up out of yard and re-bagged several times prior to trash being picked up d/t the Memorial Day Holiday. After trash was eventually picked up, the day before we were leaving, the trash can was missing. We had to take our own trash with us in the bed of our truck when we left the next day, so as not to leave for the next occupants. Or be penalized for not disposing of ours properly as requested by management. Notified Manager who was very polite and voiced apologies. Despite the frustration with someone else's trash, we would definitely stay at this property again and recommend to others as well!

My Family And I Really Enjoyed Our Stay At Your Home In Clermont. Its Very Conveniet, Far Better Tha Staying At A Hotel. We Prepared Breakfast And Was Able To Enjoy Family Dinners Together. It Was Our Home Away From Home. We Met The House Clean And The Light And Central Air Was Already Turned On When We Arrived. We Did Had A Hard Time Finding The Home, The House Numbering Is A Little Confusing But We Were Able To Get Excellant Assistance From The Property Manager. I Would Differntly Stay Here Again A Nd Recommend It To My Friends.

Our party of eight cosisting of 5 adults an 3 children stayed at the villa in Davenport. It was an appropriate size for the group. The house was located within 15 mins to all major attractions with grocery stores and Walmart superstore within 5 mins drive. The house was very clean and tidy we were very happy with it. The heated pool was great! As for we were there in Feburary so we needed it. Great for evening fun after a long day at the theme parks. The house was equipped with everything u would need. The community was ver quite but it was also active with residental home which made u feel secure. I would have to rate this house as a five star and I would definitely recommend it to others.I was really pleased with it for the price we paid. Thanks for renting us a home away from home.

Hi Li Li,
Thank you very much for making our time in Floirda an unforgetable vacation. The house was clean and tidy and make us feel like at home, the kids love the pool very much. I will book early next year so I can have a full week to the house.
Anonymous, Toronto, Canada, 8/21/08
Thank you, Li Li,
The deposit check refund arrived today. Once again, thank you for contributing to a great family holiday. I always feel bookings over the internet are a risk, but in this case our expectations were exceeded. We are looking forward to going next year.
Andrew, 7/10/08
Your house was super. We had a great time with Mickey Mouse. The young ones tried very hard to wear out the swimming pool and were not successful.
The only problem we had was the two notices [one taped on the end of the counter and one in the note book] that gave conflicting trash pick up days.
Your deposit refund check arrived in today's mail. Thanks; It got here before the credit card statement!
Again, thanks for the use of your house.
Al, 4/26/08
This house was great. It was so nice to have the 5 bedrooms, game cube and game room. When you have 4 children, things can get pretty hectic at times. They need something to do in the down time, or if it's raining. Having the pool table was perfect. The price was very affordable as well. Thanks.

We loved Li Li's house! It had everything we needed and so close to all the parks. It was so nice to come back to the pool and spa at night, plenty of room for everyone and the game room was a life saver! Thanks again!

New night time tank lights, need feedback.
1 Attachment(s)
Just installed these lights a couple of minutes ago, need some colour feedback, thanks everyone.
I like the blue, not fond of the red. I think the entire tank bathed in blue would look awesome, but that's just me.
Love the blue - red looks like a reptile tank. Where did you get that? Very nice!!
Just a little DIY project, cost me about 30$ total, and since I changed my lights both to blue.
I bought two reptile lamps, just basic metal hoods with the clamp for the tank, and bought two CFL's in blue at Home Depot. (they have red,blue,yellow,gre len) They came to 7$ each. I put the lamps on the back of the tank where the HOB filters go and tin foiled off half the lamp to keep the blue light from shining everywhere else and it seems to let a perfect amount of light in. Also since I've put the lights up my Yellow Tail Aceis are breeding, 1 mother kept her eggs and is now in a 10 gallon tank of her own, and another one didn't get fertilized to my knowledge and they were discarded.
Love the blue :thumbsup:

My vote goes to the Snuff LWB. It is easily among the most comfortable shoes I have. Also, the LWB is on a double waterlock sole.
My friend, incredible looking shine, and an outstanding make-up. Saddles are almost always on the barrie. They look pretty round; I'd guess barrie but couldn't say for sure. Wear in great health.
Thank you uncle. You are looking especially good in your cigar cap toe boots as well.

Kate kidded around with the scouts, even joining in a spot of outdoor cuisine, cooking a sausage on stick over a camp fire.
They exchanged long hugs, kidded each other, teasingly pulled rank, and shouted "hooah," the warrior expression of approval.
I was afraid you'd go down to see him, and then I'd get 'kidded' by the fellows.
I expect I kidded Mr. Robert more or less about his artist friend.
Father had him kidded into believing that all the old ham-fat Riddles were simply Immense.
I've been kidded about it some since; but at the time it sounded all right.
They kidded him into thinking that he had incubated a Whale.
At least once a day he kidded Rick about becoming nursemaid to a monkey.
kidded him about the Boers, and the way the embattled farmers hung it on perfidious Albion.
We kidded and kidded till finally, one night, she forgot we was just kiddin'.
c.1200, "the young of a goat," from a Scandinavian source (cf. Old Norse kið "young goat"), from Proto-Germanic *kiðjom (cf. Old High German kizzi, German kitze, Danish and Swedish kid). Extended meaning of "child" first recorded as slang 1590s, established in informal usage by 1840s. Applied to skillful young thieves and pugilists since at least 1812. Kid stuff "something easy" is from 1913 (The phrase was in use about that time in reference to vaudeville acts or advertisements featuring children, and to children-oriented features in newspapers). Kid glove "a glove made of kidskin leather" is from 1680s; sense of "characterized by wearing kid gloves," therefore "dainty, delicate" is from 1856.
"tease playfully," 1839, earlier, in thieves' cant, "to coax, wheedle, hoax" (1811), probably from kid (n.), via notion of "treat as a child, make a kid of." Related: Kidded; kidding.

the young of the goat. It was much used for food (Gen. 27:9; 38:17; Judg. 6:19; 14:6). The Mosaic law forbade to dress a kid in the milk of its dam, a law which is thrice repeated (Ex. 23:19; 34:26; Deut. 14:21). Among the various reasons assigned for this law, that appears to be the most satisfactory which regards it as "a protest against cruelty and outraging the order of nature." A kid cooked in its mother's milk is "a gross, unwholesome dish, and calculated to kindle animal and ferocious passions, and on this account Moses may have forbidden it. Besides, it is even yet associated with immoderate feasting; and originally, I suspect," says Dr. Thomson (Land and the Book), "was connected with idolatrous sacrifices."

Ambiguous contract terms are ordinarily a liability for government contractors, opening the possibility of misunderstandings, expensive disputes, and, potentially, unpaid additional work. However, contract ambiguity recently came to the aid of a federal contractor accused of False Claims Act ("FCA") violations. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit upheld dismissal of a suit alleging FCA violations by a contractor for the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, holding that internally contradictory and vague contract language defeated the possibility of a jury finding of requisite intent for an FCA violation.
The qui tam plaintiff, August W. Arnold, alleged in his complaint that CMC Engineering Inc. overcharged PennDOT for the services of inspectors who worked on federally-funded highway projects. Arnold, a former PennDOT assistant construction engineer, helped oversee selection of private engineering firms for PennDOT. In his complaint, Arnold contended that CMC knowingly misrepresented the qualifications of its inspectors to trigger higher pay rates than were appropriate given the inspectors' actual qualifications.
Having reviewed the language of PennDOT's contracts with CMC, the court concluded that the contracts contained several mutually contradictory pay-rate schedules. The court noted that the contracts were also ambiguous in allowing "any equivalent combination of experience or training" as a substitute for at least some qualifications. PennDOT employees testified that this created "a big gray area" and that the contracts' terms were "open to interpretation." To violate the FCA, a defendant must have "knowingly" made a false claim or false certification. In this instance, the court held, a reasonable jury could not find CMC to have knowingly misrepresented the inspectors' qualifications, given the uncertainty about what qualifications were really required for various pay rates. In short, where a defendant and a relator reasonably disagree about how to interpret ambiguous contract language, there may be ground for dismissal of an FCA claim.

Radisson Reports Computer Systems Breached
Federal authorities are investigating a report from the Radisson hotel chain that someone illegally accessed its computer systems. According to Radisson Hotels & Resorts, the situation affects only a limited number of its 400 hotels.Federal law enforcement is investigating a hack that compromised computer systems at Radisson Hotels & Resorts hotels throughout the United States and Canada. Officials at Radisson, part of Carlson, revealed that its computer systems were accessed without authorization between November 2008 and May 2009. The company did not say which of its hotels was hit or how many, but in a statement Radisson Chief Operating Officer Fredrik Korallus described the number as "limited."
In an open letter to customers, Korallus said, "Working with law enforcement and forensic investigators, Radisson is conducting a thorough review of the potentially affected computer systems, and has implemented additional security measures designed to prevent a recurrence of such an attack and to protect the privacy of Radisson's valued guests."
