Originally written December 11, 1986
I trust you to be the most competent person to run your own life. I presume you can judge for yourself whether or not you should partake in recreational drugs, gamble with your paycheck, hire a prostitute, or engage in any other personal non-violent activity. If you find that any of these are manageable vacations for you, then no harm is done. If you find instead that it is becoming your entire lifestyle, then the most important advice that I, or anyone, can give you, is to point out that you, and you alone, are responsible for the consequences of your actions. Vice does not have volition. You do. If you wish to accept the aid of others, who voluntarily offer it, no one can criticize. If, instead, you continue to engage in self-destructive activities, until you forfeit your life, I will grieve for the lost opportunity of your life, while recognizing that you had to be free to make your own mistakes. To assume that the mere offer of temptation is the same as offering aggression implies that you can not be expected to behave responsibly in the face of such temptation. That may be your honest self-assessment, but it will never be my presumption about you. Would you want it to be?
I believe you can choose what charities are worthy of support by your own moral standards. If one person would aid an unwed mother by offering her a subsidized abortion, while another would offer to adopt her child, who has the right to insist that only one or the other is acceptable – that support for the one standard of compassion will be compelled upon everyone, while the other is criminalized. You, and you alone, know how much you can afford to share with others after seeing to your own needs, and the needs of your family. Further, you, and you alone, know best how you can help. Do you really believe that love can be scaled up in size by coercive charities? Is the value of charity in the wealth that is given, or in the thought with which the wealth is given? Are you only concerned with the food in a man's belly without a second thought about his soul? Can you only offer the poor the affection and esteem one would give farm animals? Does coercive love beget genuine compassion, or its antithesis, apathy and guilt? Is not government charity to voluntary charity as rape is to consensual sex? Do you really believe that institutionalizing government in the role of Robin Hood is a good idea? Robin Hood was a thief! But, at least, he was a thief because he had to be. There was no private property in King Richard's England because ALL property was owned in the King's name alone! And remember, Robin Hood's enemy was the Sheriff of Nottingham,… THE GOVERNMENT! You and I would have been called serfs back then. Why, in the name of love, would anyone want to bring that life back? Do you regard others as only fit to live as serfs? Is that all you want out of life for yourself and your family? Is the only measure of charity you care to be tested upon to be your willingness to vote yourself (and everyone else) higher taxes? What are you saying you believe about yourself? How long must it be before humanity understands that it is more humane to create new wealth than to merely distribute wealth to those in need? It may be unfortunate, but governments will likely never be able to universalize love as readily as they can universalize equal process under law. When your main unique characteristic is having a socially sanctioned monopoly on the use of initiatory violence,… it is simply more difficult, not less, to universalize love. Voluntary means are not certain to succeed, but only by voluntary means can there ever be any possibility of universalizing love.
Why shouldn't everyone be free to accept any job offer at whatever wage is mutually agreeable between employee and employer? Should you not be presumed competent to decide for yourself what wage is fair? Is it exploitation to be offered a low wage, or is it exploitation to be compelled to accept no wage rather than a low one? Is the need for pride in gainful employment something only known by adults between the ages of eighteen and sixty five, or is productive activity something sought by us all, regardless of age, sex, disability, or the paternalistic good intentions of strangers?
I trust that you know best what is a fair business risk for you to assume. I certainly trust your economic rationality when looking out for your own self-interest more than I would trust that of an anonymous government bureaucrat. Am I wrong for placing such trust in you?
Should others tell you what standard of morality you will hold? Should strangers forcibly take your children and teach them what the strangers choose to teach? Not what you choose, but what strangers choose? Strangers do, you know. Should others tell you how many children you may have? Why not? Why do you object to one and not the other? What inalienable right do you invoke in one instance that does not apply in all instances?
I trust you to be willing to fight to defend yourself and whatever else you value as much as you value your life. I trust you not to fight in unjust causes. When someone resists the draft in America and another in Russia, is one a coward and the other brave?
The greatest distrust that all reasonable people seem to have is the distrust of using force themselves. This is a natural and wholesome thing. But self-defense is also necessary. I am not stupid or willfully naïve. I am not suggesting that we all become Pollyannas and not defend ourselves from evil people. So long as people have free will, there will always be evil. No generation of men will be without it, ever. But how to administer the force necessary for self-defense? Vigilantism? Voluntary committees of citizens organized to suppress and punish crime when the processes of law appear inadequate? And without government, there can be no law, right? Government is law, isn't it? What happens when mistakes are made? Doesn't vigilantism mean lynch mobs in practice, inevitably bringing with it constant fear and mutual suspicion for everybody as a consequence?
So then, in honest self-doubt, reasonable men said, "Let us put force in one place, and then guard it by keeping it in one place. Let us call this place, Government." But are we really safer for creating a monopoly and institutionalizing force? Could any mob be as dangerous as a society in which people say, I am not responsible, but the government is!?
As bad as the abuse of force can be, what is far worse is the abdication of self-responsibility. Any time that force is used, these principles must be invoked to weigh the justice of the action:
1. Force may only be used in response to force. Need, compassion, utopia, or fine dreams are not sufficient reasons.
2. Force may only be used against an aggressor and not innocent bystanders. It is not enough for society to claim that it needs to regard everyone as guilty until proven innocent (which is precisely the premise of all regulatory government). It is not enough to be fair by leveling everyone with equal injustice (which is the method of all compassionate socialism).
3. Force should only be used to gain restitution and not vengeance from aggressors. How can the world be other than impoverished when it tries to reduce criminals to the same sorry state as their forgotten victims? How long can criminals continue their self-denial of responsibility if they are required to repair the damage they are responsible for inflicting?
We must always remember that it is not the pomp and ceremony of government that make it just. Justice does not lay in government, nor in law, but in principle alone. Force is not (nor can it ever be) a creative power. Force is impotent to make anything. Force, at best, can only protect creative processes. It can never be a substitute for the source of all productivity, the sovereign individual mind.
In all argument concerning the integrity of ourselves and others, trust is an axiom, and it's mine. But ultimately, trust is not something that I can prove for you. Trusting in yourself first, and then in others, is something that only you can do. I can not do it for you. Neither can the government, or your parents, or even God. Do you hesitate because you want an omnipotent guarantee of your continued existence? If you are trying to insure your survival by chaining my life to your welfare, are you not saying, in effect, that you trust me to keep you alive because you do not trust yourself? What does this do to enhance your celebration of life? What does this do for me? What does this teach our children? Do you hesitate to trust because you believe that justice requires that no innocent individuals should have to suffer through no fault of their own? Then there will be no end to your mistrust and suspicions because reality is indifferent to your beliefs about justice. There will always be misfortune and pain in the world. Utopia is not an option. It never was, and it never will be. Is it not probable that the maximum expression of good must always become evil, and that the minimum expression of evil is our best attainable good?
The reason the Soviet state continues in power is that the Soviet citizen is sincerely frightened of others having more liberty. They know that their government is brutal, but they also know (that is, believe) it is better than their best expected alternatives. Be very careful when you consider what you know. The German people, for centuries, had been among the most tolerant of the Jews, but even they could be loyal and obedient when told that all virtue is synonymous with obedience to authority. When people act only within the moral alternatives that others give them, they then make horror inevitable! The state is not our parent. Whether one is talking about Mother Russia, or the German Fatherland, or Uncle Sam, one is talking nonsense. Grow up, and be responsible for your own life, and for your own chosen values. You must not remain a child forever while leaving your own children with the debt of your folly.
I trust you to be the most competent person to run your own life. I am trusting my life on that fact. I am trusting your life to that fact. What other basis for social intercourse would you substitute? Why would you want to prove me wrong? When you believe that your fellow man is only fit for human society when living under the constant threat of initiatory force, aren't you necessarily implying that he is just a stupid, incompetent, irresponsible, nigger slave, who is kept within bounds only by his fear of the whip and chain! Or is it that you are a willing slave whose real ambition is not freedom, but to own slaves of your own?
I am sorry, if I offend you. But the most powerful way to elicit responsible and productive effort in you is to let you know that that is the only way I ever intend to deal with you. I know you are capable of living up to my expectations. Why do you doubt yourself? I trust you. Rather than considering myself a Pollyanna, I believe that only by such trust can there be any sound hope for a better world and a brighter future. Trust is not something that large anonymous institutions can give to you by fiat. At first meeting, it is a premise between two individuals. Later, trust is usually recognized as deserved. When trust of someone is not deserved, act accordingly. But putting everyone in prison, gilded or otherwise, is not a way to build trust, either in yourself, in others, or in reality. I think you deserve better. I know I do. And most important of all, what kind of world do we want our children to inherit?
Yours in Liberty,
David R. Hunt

Korean food is something that I have come to really enjoy of late, which is funny considering Sydney is a bit of a hub of Korean food activity not Phnom Penh! But despite this, Mick and I live just around the corner from our own little "Korea-town" on Sotheros Blvd. Amongst the massage parlors, karaoke bars and hotels, there are some absolute gems such as Yeon Ga.
The tell-tale sign that this restaurant was the real deal has got to be the groups of Korean men who seem to have their favourite spots in this little restaurant. Each time we have been there, we have had the company of at least 4 other men, all korean who are tucking into some of their comfort foods like bimbibap, "KFC"(Korean Fried Chicken), Tofu and Pork stew and Kimchee stir-fries. The smell is pretty awesome and everyone seems to thoroughly enjoy their meals.
Surely the best thing about Korean food is all the little side dishes (banchan)that you get loaded on your table seemingly before you even have a chance to decide what to have! Yeon Ga offers some pretty tasty banchan such as small omelets, fried pork, beansprouts and tofu, kimchee (of course), anchovies and green vegetables. These alone are worth coming here and I think my favourites are the beansprouts and tofu and the fried pork. Yum!
For mail meals, the bibmibap is a favourite of mine and it seems to offer a bit of everything – rice, pork, pickles, spice – all in a deliciously cute flavour pot. One day I will have a go at making one of these at home as I am sure it isn't too hard! My only gripe is that its not spicy enough but the kimchee makes up for that.
Mick's go-to-dish is the beef bone stew that is a hearty broth of garlic, beef and clear noodles (not sure what kind – sorry!) that goes well with some added chilli and of course all the sides. We have also ordered the grilled mackerel (very good), KFC (yummy!), pork and kimchee stew (delish) and have come away feeling pretty chuffed every time.
Most meals come in around the $5 – $10 mark which is very good value considering how much food you get. Beers are $2 and they have the usual softdrinks on offer as well.

A Seacoast MA comparative market analysis (CMA) is a report compiled by a local real estate broker to figure out the possible price range of a Seacoast MA home. It is different from an appraisal, which pinpoints the exact price of a home. It is important that property owners comprehend how a comparative market analysis is prepared. This article offers details on why you need a comparative market analysis for Seacoast MA real estate.
How a Seacoast MA Comparative Market Analysis is Compiled
The current value of a Seacoast MA property is derived from what a buyer is willing to offer. Since the Seacoast MA real estate market changes regularly, the traditional method to estimate market value is to compare it to other properties that sold in previous months. Active homes on the market are not valid reflections of value since there is no way to foresee what they will eventually sell for or if they will sell at all. When compiling a Seacoast MA comparative market analysis, listing brokers try to find comparable homes and in similar neighborhoods. It is not always possible to find sold Seacoast MA real estate that are exact matches, so adjustments are traditionally made to account for differences. Upgrades, square footage, features, and other factors are taken into consideration. Not all home differences add value and the dollar value of adjustments do not often match the amount paid for them.
Why You Need A Comparative Market Analysis For Seacoast MA Real Estate
A Seacoast MA comparative market analysis report normally results in a price range. Where a home falls within that range depends on the abundance and quality of competing listings and your time restrictions. If you have a short time frame in which to sell your home, your selected price should be more competitive (at either the low end or even less than the price range). This is particularly true if there is an large volume of listings. In general, the higher you price your home, the longer it may take to sell. In an economy where competition is low and your home is highly desirable, you may have the luxury of pricing at the high end of the range. A knowledgeable real estate agent could assist you with this decision and provide useful advice on pricing your listing correctly. Incorrectly pricing a property can lead to loss of valuable time and money, so refer to the expertise of a local real estate agent and the factual figures in a Seacoast MA comparative market analysis report.
I hope that you found this information on why you need a comparative market analysis for Seacoast MA real estate useful. For other information on listing your property for sale, review the other information on this site. To request a Seacoast MA comparative market analysis, contact John P. Wells at 978-609-4948 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Goodbye NNAT, Hello CogAT
SAT, STAAR, AP, IB, PTO. . . the world of education is filled with some fairly familiar acronyms. One acronym, however, may not be so familiar: CogAT. It stands for Cognitive Abilities Test, a test that might play an important role in your student's academic life, especially if your child attends an HISD school. Let us help break down the basics of the CogAT.
In a nutshell, what is the CogAT?
The CogAT is a test commonly used for identification of students for Gifted and Talented programs and is a grade-level specific assessment of verbal, quantitative, and spatial reasoning and problem-solving ability.

Donald Trump Blasted By Jimmy Kimmel For Canceling Appearance On His Show
Ouch! Donald Trump was put on blast by late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel after the presidential candidate cancelled his appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' at the last minute. See Jimmy's hilarious insults here!
Jimmy Kimmel, 47, was not happy when Donald Trump, 69, backed out of appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live only hours before he was due to tape his segment on the Oct. 20 episode. The late night funny man actually went on a tirade against the Republican presidential candidate and let loose with some hilarious jokes.
Donald is well known for launching his own blistering insults, but he got a taste of his own medicine when Jimmy went after him on his own show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, on Oct. 20.
"You know Donald Trump was supposed to be here tonight — but last night, his people called and canceled on us," Jimmy said in his opening monologue. "They were a little bit cryptic about why he canceled. They said 'he has a major political commitment, but he did want me to relay the message to you that — if he was here, he would have been great.'"
"I'm dying to find out what this major political commitment was. Usually, it means he has to go on CNN to call someone an idiot, or something," Jimmy joked, before adding, "Why did he cancel? We told him there were cameras here, right? Are Tuesday nights the night he volunteers down at the orphanage? But don't worry, we're giving everyone in our audience a basketball dipped in cologne — so you can fully experience what it would have been like if he was here. The good news of Donald not being here tonight is, now we don't have to build a wall around Guillermo."
The drama started when the GOP candidate abruptly pulled out of his scheduled appearance due to a "political obligation," a Trump spokeswoman told CNN in a statement, adding that "Mr. Trump is rescheduling his appearance and looks forward to being on the show in the next few weeks." Unfortunately, that wasn't good enough for the late-night host, who used the last-minute ditch as ammo for his live segment.
Ahead of Trump's dropping out, Jimmy revealed that unlike the Donald's other late-night appearances, his Jimmy Kimmel Live! segment at the Brooklyn Academy of Music was not going to be a traditional interview."I'm not interviewing him, " he explained to CNN. "It will be in studio, it'll be live, and it'll all make perfect sense when you see it." If we ever do!
Meanwhile, though Trump may be surging in the polls, he's been having a rough time on late night TV lately. Bruce Willis, 60, showed he was game for a laugh when he channeled Donald during an appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon on Oct. 17 — and, boy, did he nail it! Bruce is no longer bald, guys! The Die Hard actor rocked a bizarre blonde wig, which looked strikingly similar to the former Apprentice star's much-talked about hairdo for his interview. Not content with just wearing the odd wig, Bruce also donned a black suit and red tie just like Donald's fashion choices so far during his campaign. Too funny!
What do you think HollywoodLifers? Did you like Jimmy's Trump takedown? Sound off in the comments below!

Drag and Drop Multi File Upload with ColdFusion
Posted by Kris Korsmo in ColdFusion Builder , Ajax , ColdFusion , JavaScript , jQuery on March 9, 2013
My cousin Winston Yee (@winston_yee) hit me up the other day for a file uploader that was able to pause mid-upload, assuming the user was interrupted, and then resume where it left off. I remembered reading something recenctly in @Appliness on my iPad about a JavaScript drag/drop file upload, so I pointed him at that. As it turns out, that wasn't what he was looking for, but I thought I'd write a quick blog post about it anyway, because I think it's cool. Sorry to let you down again, Winston ;)

Beginning with Jenkins and ColdFusion Part 2
Posted by Kris Korsmo in ANT , Git , ColdFusion , Jenkins on September 27, 2012
It's been a couple months now that I blogged about getting started with Jenkins and ColdFusion, so I wanted to make a point of writing a follow-up. Automation is going to save me a lot of time, so it's time to get cracking!
Beginning with Jenkins and ColdFusion
Posted by Kris Korsmo in ANT , Git , MXUnit , ColdFusion , Jenkins on July 13, 2012
Last night at the Seattle CFUG meeting, Matt Woodward and Nick Harvey introduced us to Jenkins. Jenkins is what's called a continuous integration application. Here's an overview of how it works:
Chrome and Spool
A couple months ago I made the switch from using Firefox to Chrome. It's taken some getting used to, but overall I've found the two comparable, although Chrome's developer tools are ususally more intuitive for me, and I think they are more comprehensive as well. I also love the Chrome store. There are thousands of apps and plugins you can install with Chrome, and I actually plan on blogging a bit more about that soon. In day-to-day use, one of the plugins I missed from Firefox was Download Helper.

Revint Solutions offers a full-service revenue recovery solution that uncovers every lost dollar your organization deserves.
• We couple our industry-leading technology platform with our hands-on regulatory and clinical expertise
• Our two-step approach identifies all uncovered revenue, which cannot be accomplished through technology alone
• We contact Medicare Administrative Contractors (MAC) to validate our findings prior to submitting claims for payment
• We go the extra mile while other solutions simply rely on computer programs to catch low-hanging fruit
Under Medicare Post-Acute Transfer rules, certain DRGs are subject to reduced payments if patients are discharged early and receive post-acute care elsewhere. In many cases, patients do not receive the expected post-acute care for reasons outside of your control. This puts your healthcare system at risk for underpayments as high as $70k per account if claims are not coded correctly.
Our solution produces results that mirror the CMS system of checks and balances. We have time and again recovered 20% more than our competitors and 40% more than providers who have completed similar reviews internally.
Revint Solutions pioneered the Medicare Transfer DRG review when we first launched in 1996. We have collected over $900 million for our clients, performed over 1,000 engagements across the U.S., and processed over 5 million claims.
From small hospitals to large health systems, we deliver value to all types of healthcare providers. Our detailed financial and operational understanding of each unique provider setting, coupled with our proprietary technology, consistently delivers more revenue than our competitors.

1. How long does it take to make a garment?
A lot of time goes into the production and development of a Meiji Designs product, our turnaround time is takes 2 weeks from order finalisation. If you have a more urgent requirement, please still contact us.
2. How are they made?
All our products are hand crafted from start to finish at our studio in York. Starting with a roll of white silk, we will either hand dye or hand print the silk and add the devoré detail, it will then be stitched, packaged and sent out to you.
3. Can you recreate designs?
Due to the nature of our products we cannot recreate designs, thus meaning every Meiji Designs product is a one of kind and unique to it's owner. We can however, adapt and recreate similar colour combinations and patterns.
4. Can you make multiple of the same products, e.g. matching sets for weddings?
Even though we cannot make the exact same product twice, if we dye print a set at the same time, it will enable us to we create a set of (almost) matching products- such as a set of pocket squares for a grooms party, or a matching his and hers set for the races for example.
5. Do you only make scarves and pocket squares?
At present, we do only specialise in scarves and pocket squares. However, we are currently in the development stages of creating ladies Kimonos and will be looking to bring out a range of men's ties & bow ties in the near future. Saying this, we are open to all enquiries so please don't hesitate to contact us if you have something specific in mind.
1. What fabric do you use?

The establishment of the Tunnelling and Underground space Association is timely , relevant and will definitely serve as a catalyst for the extensive development of our infrastructure . As a built environment expert , I am eager to see how this will affect the way we collaboratively plan the development of our urban cities.
I am impressed and excited to say the least at the prospect of the Tunnelling Association of Nigeria . This is the first of its kind in the Western and Central African Region . The International Tunnelling and Underground Space Association is proud to be part of this history making endeavour.
Time has come in which Nigeria will join other developed countries to take

We champion collaborative infrastructural delivery , that is why we seek affiliation with various organisations that are able to add value to the development of the Tunnelling and Underground space industry in Nigeria.

Though controversies surround the circumstances under which he died, few disagreements exist with regards to the contributions he has made in fighting for a free press in Cameroon. It is paradoxical for a man, who worked to make Cameroon's highways safer, through Jane and Justice Njawe Foundation, to die in a road accident himself. It is equally a paradox that a man who dreamt and worked to implant the values of freedom in Cameroon should die where one would least expect- America, especially Virginia, reputed for its role in establishing democratic values in America.

- Area(s) of Law: Copyright
- Date Filed: 06-13-2012
- Case #: 11 Civ. 2503
- Judge(s)/Court Below: Castel
- Full Text Opinion
Opinion (Castel): Demand Media (Demand) operates Cracked.com, a content hosting website. Demand has a policy of canceling user accounts if it receives multiple copyright complaints about a particular user's activity. Cracked.com user "socialway" posted 32 items, for which Austin Obadai (Obadai) held the copyrights. Obadai brought suit against Demand Media claiming direct, vicarious, and contributory copyright infringement. Demand moved for summary judgment on the grounds that they are protected by the safe harbor provision of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Demand qualified as a service provider under the DMCA, had an established repeat offender policy, and did not prevent the use of "standard technical methods," as proscribed by the DMCA. The Court therefore GRANTED Demand's motion for summary judgment.

Happy Birthday Francis Bacon
The Irish-born British painter was born on this day, 28 October 1909.
His paintings are deliberately uncomfortable and unpleasant. Known for his bold, emotionally charged and raw imagery. After the suicide of his lover, George Dyer in 1971, his work became dominated by death.
In "Triptych – August 1972", Dyer appears on the left and Bacon on the right. The seated figures and their coupling are set against black voids and the central flurry has been seen as 'a life-and-death struggle'.
This work is on view at Gallery Art
What is a COA and why are they important?
Find peace in mind knowing when you shop at GallArt.com that the artwork you purchase is genuine and always comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
What Is a Certificate of Authenticity?
A Certificate of Authenticity is a bit like an artwork's birth certificate, passport and quality guarantee all rolled into one.
Essentially, a COA is a document, created by the artist or someone who is an expert on the artist, which accompanies an artwork and contains all the information a collector could need to verify if the piece of art is genuine.
A Certificate of Authenticity (COA) provides a lot of concrete detail about a piece, but by existing for a particular piece, it says even more. An artwork that has a COA is one that is made by a professional practicing artist, not an amateur. It is a piece that has collectible value. The Certificate adds a tangible credibility to the work. It can help the work hold its value.
The COA is held to be an indirect promise of quality. Art pieces that have a COA have usually been made by an artist who cares about their work, its longevity and their collectors. The piece is likely to have been created from the best materials available, be designed to last and been created by an expert. Back to the concrete details, the Certificate will provide all the information on the medium(s) of the piece needed for conservation that might otherwise be lost forever.
Certificates protect the artist and the buyer by helping to prove that an artwork is original. Cheap copies sold without an artist's knowledge or consent is unfortunately common. Without a COA attached, this situation makes it next to impossible for the buyer to be confident of the value of the piece or for the artist to maintain their credibility and their livelihood.
As an art collector, you really must only buy Fine Art pieces that are backed by a Certificate of Authenticity. This helps ensure that what you have bought at a premium is genuine and not counterfeit.

Francis Bacon Triptych – August 1972
Can we just admire this Francis Bacon triptych (Triptych – August, 1972) for a moment?
This work is generally considered one in a series of Black Triptychs which followed the suicide of Bacon's lover, George Dyer. Dyer appears on the left and Bacon is on the right.The central group is derived from a photograph of wrestlers by Edward Muybridge, but also suggests a more sexual encounter. The seated figures and their coupling are set against black voids and the central flurry has been seen as 'a life-and-death struggle'. The artist's biographer wrote: 'What death has not already consumed seeps incontinently out of the figures as their shadows.'

Securing Your Home Ownership
Title insurance secures your legal claim to the property you purchase and protects you against title "defects" — legal rights to a property claimed by someone else. Defects can surface even after you've closed on the property. Furthermore, numerous circumstances can arise that keep you from having a "marketable" title and, thus, can hamper your ability to sell the property in the future. With title insurance, the title insurer not only pays the costs if you're ever forced to defend your ownership in court, but also covers loss if the title defects can't be settled.
Buying a lender's title insurance policy is required for obtaining a mortgage. This protects the lender against any title problems. To protect your interests, you'll also need owner's title insurance.
You can get title insurance through two sources: a title agency or a real estate attorney. A title agency not affiliated with a law firm is limited in the services it can provide, however. For example, the title agency can't prepare contracts, resolve many title or inspection issues or give you legal advice on the documents you sign during closing. Blackburn Law Firm can provide those services, in addition to preparing documents for closing and issuing your title insurance policy. Title insurance policies are regulated by the State of Florida and the cost of the insurance policy is the same no matter who issues the policy.
The process of obtaining title insurance starts with a title search. The goal of a title search is to assure you and the lender that the seller is the legal owner of the property and that there are no outstanding claims or liens against the property you are buying. Title searches can be time-intensive, with numerous records to be examined, including liens, records of deaths, divorces, court judgments, and contests over wills – all of which can affect ownership rights.
Even a thorough title examination might not reveal hidden defects, however. That could leave your ownership rights in question even after closing, and that's why having title insurance is so important.
Examples of Hidden Defects:
- Forged deeds, releases of mortgages and other instruments.
- Instruments executed under fabricated or expired powers of attorney.
- Mistakes in recording legal documents.
- Married seller who misrepresents himself or herself as single
- Claims of undisclosed heirs.
- Clerical errors.
- Incorrect legal descriptions.
- Improperly probated wills.
- Confusion resulting from similar names.
Again, the purpose of title insurance is to protect against these types of defects. The title examination by a trained professional provides the first level of protection. The title insurance policy provides protection for defects the title search might have missed.
Title Exemptions
Exceptions are situations where the title owner has relinquished control over an aspect of the property. Many exceptions are beneficial, such as a utility easement; however, some exceptions can be problematic. If you engage Blackburn Law Firm early, we will assist you in objecting to any problematic exceptions and the seller will have to respond. If the issues can't be resolved in a timely manner, only a real estate attorney may provide legal advice regarding your options.
Supplementing a Standard Title Policy
Sometimes extended coverage is needed to supplement a standard title policy. This extended coverage, also known as a special endorsement, is used most often to protect owners of condominiums and planned unit developments (PUDs). Blackburn Law Firm can advise you if special endorsements are needed.

A young straight biological male, particularly in his teenage years or early twenties, that bears a striking resemblance to an androgynous lesbian. A heterosexual dude who, at first glance, is often mistaken for a boyish lesbian. He is usually of smaller build, wears ambiguous attire, (ie: skinny jeans, Chuck Taylors) and cuts his hair into a faux hawk or other such lesbian-trademarked coiffure. It might be said of him to have "pretty" features, as well. Due to his tendency to be in touch with his feminine side, he is often pursued by fags, ex-dykes and fruit-flies alike, lending him to get a wider variety of ass than his douchebagy, meathead brethren. However, don't be fooled, my fine lez sisters. The Dubian is indeed a bio-guy, therefore, if you're not into bio-peen, I suggest you stick to dating a bio-boi.
Jenny: What a fine looking butch that 'Bob's Big Boy' is, right? I'm gonna step to her and get me some.
Shane: Oh silly Jenny! I hate to break it to you but that ain't no butch... Big Boy is a Dubian!
Shane: Oh silly Jenny! I hate to break it to you but that ain't no butch... Big Boy is a Dubian!

When I got pregnant the first time around, I was inundated with information. Mostly it was information intended to provide "expert help" on how to cope and how to incubate and raise the perfect human. I worked in a culturally diverse environment, but there was a lot of talk about expert advice. I followed the websites and a couple of books for a while but quickly realized that mostly they were good at inflating my pre-existing neuroses, which nobody needed to see amplified.
I was raised in Toronto but had been out of the city for the most part since high school and so did not have a large group of local friends when I first gave birth. The people I met in the months after had also recently given birth. It turned out that for me, at least, that was not a sufficient connection point. It reminded me a great deal of high school, in fact. Everyone was talking about it, but no one really knew anything (remind you of anything else you know?). In high school, it was sex, in early parenthood it was a lot of things, though it was mostly sleep. Here it seems to revolve around "success."
Before my first child was a year old, I discovered a different place. People came whether they were moms or dads, whether they lived around the corner in a mansion in the Annex, or around the corner underhoused, whether they were straight or queer. Beyond that, people came with their older children. When you walked into that space, someone could always tell a war story that was worse than your day. Not in a one-upping sort of way, but to put you at ease. Putting everything into your mouth is normal for a kid. Getting frustrated with your partner is something that happens in a marriage. Miscarriage happened to me too. Big things, hard things and ridiculous things, nothing was off limits.
Places like that are hard to find in a society that values the convenience of being right there and the cohesion of moving with your cohort–this is just as true in elementary school, and perhaps also, here. I learned three things about learning strategies for parenting from the Children's Storefront, which is the name of the place I found. If you want to learn a new way of doing things because what you're doing right now isn't working:
1. Find a person whose kids you admire and ask them for recommendations.
2. Find a book that purports to help and look in the index for a topic you already have an opinion on–read that section. Whether you choose to read about the issue you want to understand better or not, you will have a good sense of the context in which the advice is being given.
3. Don't look for experts, look for comparisons. Look at comparative ethnographies, that study how different cultures address the same question.
That brings me to why I think it is useful to apply these possibilities at school. Making connections is a big part of why we are at law school. The law is as much a profession of relationships as it is one of rules. Learning how to evaluate the information you are given by peers who are giving advice or just venting is a good way to build up your own roster of understanding and reaction.
But most importantly, especially since the law is such a powerful tool and many of us will not practice it within sight of those most affected by our actions, the greater the variety of approaches to the same problem you encounter, the more well-rounded your approach to the law.
So, what would those three things look like in law?
1. Upper years, practitioners we are lucky enough to have come to school regularly and our professors are all people who are happy to mentor us individually. Obviously, you have exercise judgement and expect that some people will say no, but that is good practice, too!
2. There are entire libraries filled with books on legal theory, legal ethics and legal practice; the parallels here are straightforward.
3. You can still go to the library for ethnographies, but here I would say that it might be more useful to engage in conversation especially with peers, colleagues and more experienced people with whom you do not share a background. Again, be judicious and respectful–after all, you are asking to learn.
Unlike business or other industries, where it is often not clear how much power you are exerting in a situation, in a legal career we know that we are in positions of power, so it behooves us to start early in the process to learn not just to apply the consequences to other people's actions but to consider the profound implications of our own practice on those around us. Law school, like parenting, is the rare opportunity to engage critically with our own firmly held assumptions and try to learn from people around us whom we do not encounter in our established circles, and may not meet again after we are done.

Indian prime minister Narendra Modi's decision to visit Jerusalem but not Ramallah has prompted much comment.
The expectation of equal treatment goes back to the Oslo Accords' signing in Sep. 1993, when the prime minister of Israel, Yitzhak Rabin, represented his government in the handshake with Yasir Arafat, the much-despised chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization. No one found it strange or inappropriate at the time but things look differently nearly a quarter century later.
It's now clear that Rabin's vanity got the better of him at that supremely high-profile event on the White House lawn. As the elected head of a democratic and sovereign government, he never should have consented to Arafat, the henchman of an unofficial, dictatorial, and murderous organization, enjoying equal status with himself.
Rabin (L) looked reluctant but that did not make up for the mistake of allowing Arafat (R) to appear to be his equal.
Rather, he should have stayed aloof. Appearing together as equals created a dysfunctional illusion of equivalence that over subsequent decades became assumed, ingrained, and unquestioned. In fact, this false equivalence became even more inaccurate with time, as Israel went from one success to another and the Palestinian Authority brought on a reign of ever-deeper anarchy, dependency, and repression.
It's not just that Israelis stand among world leaders in science, technology, the humanities, and the arts, in military power and intelligence capabilities, not just that its economy is 25 times larger than the Palestinian one; in addition, Israel is ever more a land where the law rules for all (at one point recently, a disgraced president and a criminal prime minister were simultaneously sitting in prison) and individual rights are not just promised but delivered. Meanwhile, the head of the Palestinian Authority, presently in the 13th year of his 4-year term, has been neither able to prevent creeping anarchy on the West Bank nor a rogue group from taking over in Gaza, one-half of his putative domain.
Some would defend Rabin's self-imposed humiliation by arguing that he sought to strengthen Arafat and the PLO through pomp and pageantry. If this was indeed the plan, it backfired spectacularly. Rather than use the prestige of the Oslo signing ceremony to build a constituency that accepted the Jewish state and thereby end the Palestinians' conflict with it, Arafat exploited his heightened standing to develop new resources to reject Zionism and attack Israel. Palestinian "embassies" popped up worldwide to delegitimize Israel, while Palestinians killed more Israelis in the five years after the Oslo signing than in the fifteen years before it. In other words, Rabin recklessly put faith in an historic and barbaric enemy changing not just tactics but goals. Israel has paid a heavy price for this error.
Instead of the prime minister, the Israeli standing with Arafat on the White House lawn should have been someone like the second secretary at the Israeli embassy in Norway. That would have delivered the necessary signal that Arafat's protocol equivalent registers stoopingly low in the diplomatic hierarchy. To be sure, that would have meant no Nobel Peace Prize for Yitzhak Rabin. In retrospect, however, would it not have been better to skip celebrating so exuberantly a flawed, doomed, and destructive agreement?
Israeli leaders consenting to share a Nobel Peace Prize with Arafat was an even greater mistake than the original handshake.
For good measure, the signing ceremony should have taken place in the modesty of Oslo, not the grandeur of Washington, the imperial capital, the home town of the only hyper-power.
Had a lowly precedent been set in 1993, today's false parity between Binyamin Netanyahu and Mahmoud Abbas would not exist; the true imbalance of the Palestinian-Israeli relationship might be more clearly seen. As low-level diplomats, not prime ministers, negotiate with Arafat, Abbas, and the assorted other villains and self-styled Palestinian leaders, the world would be constantly reminded not of a sham parallel but of the vast moral and power gulf dividing the two sides.
Well, that did not happen. But is it too late? Can Netanyahu or a future Israeli prime minister escape the indignity of meeting as equals with the leader of a gangster enterprise?
No, it's not too late. Netanyahu could eloquently explain that he meets his legitimate counterparts; he will leave it to functionaries in the Foreign Ministry to handle whoever the Palestinian Authority throws up.
Imagine the benefits of such a step: Israel would gain in stature while the fetid nature of the PA would be exposed. American presidents would lose interest in the "ultimate deal." Other assorted would-be mediators and do-gooders would have a much harder time trying to revive a quarter century of botched negotiations.
So, I suggest Israeli prime ministers leave "peace-processing" with Palestinian hooligans to low-ranking staff.

July 5, 2017 addendum: This insight came to me from studying Cypriot negotiations. Why, I asked myself when the talks resumed in February 2014, does the president of Cyprus consent to meet with the leader of a rebel district?
July 8, 2017 update: Egypt's government seems to have heard my appeal. As reported by i24, Mahmoud Abbas "was received at Cairo airport on Saturday by just Egypt's Electricity Minister and other more junior officials."
July 21, 2017 update: Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May will no longer meet with Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon but instead refer her to Scottish Secretary David Mundell who is on the "same level as her."
