Choosing your aviation lawyer
When you need legal help buying, owning, operating or selling an aircraft, whom do you call? Many people contact their regular business attorney. That can be a big mistake.
When Paul Fireman, founder of Reebok International, decided to buy a brand-new Gulfstream 450, he phoned a large Boston law firm known for its expertise in real estate and other areas. A recent review of the firm's website and the 75 practice areas listed on a dropdown menu there shows no evidence of aviation expertise. Nevertheless, the firm referred Fireman to a staff attorney who allegedly described aircraft acquisitions as his specialty, though the firm's website description of his practice makes no mention of aviation.
With the attorney's help, Fireman's company, Willowbend Aviation, LLC, acquired the G450 in 2009. Willowbend subsequently filed suit against the law firm, claiming it lost significant federal tax benefits and faced Florida use-tax liability because of the attorney's failure to provide competent advice. The complaint, which has yet to be adjudicated, asks the court to award treble damages–almost $14 million plus attorneys' fees–under the Massachusetts consumer-protection statute.
Lawyers have a hard time turning down business. Years ago, when I was in private practice, I got a request to represent a titan of industry who was buying a new Gulfstream–provided I had experience in basing and registering aircraft in the Bahamas. It was painful to say no, but I lacked that experience. Later, I asked the lawyer who eventually took on the matter about his Bahamas background, and he said something like, "Oh, I didn't have any. I just figured it out as I went along."
Some lawyers will exaggerate their business jet experience, taking on matters they're unqualified to handle. The problem with hiring non-experts isn't so much that they don't know things, but rather that they don't know they don't know them (see box).
What to do? First, when your regular law firm claims to have expertise in business aviation, ask whether it employs an attorney whose practice is devoted to business aviation--not someone who once helped a client with a NetJets share or an aircraft loan, but someone who focuses primarily on business aviation. (Note that I said "business aviation." An airline lawyer isn't what you want unless you're buying an airline.) Then look him up on the firm's website. I recently did that for a supposed aviation attorney and found a whole series of practice areas listed, with aircraft transactions dead last. The best business aviation attorneys don't dabble in this specialty; they live and breathe it.
Even within business aviation law, however, you should be mindful of specializations. Four come readily to mind: regulatory (FAA/DOT regulations and compliance), tax (business aviation taxes and tax writeoffs); registration (title, liens and security interests); and transactions (aircraft purchases, sales, leases and financings). Many of the best aviation attorneys have expertise in two or more of these areas, and some have varying degrees of expertise in all of them or are associated with a law firm or practice group that does. Further, be sure to retain a lawyer who's well versed in your state's tax issues. Aircraft-related taxes and tax strategies vary enormously among revenue-hungry states like California, Texas, Florida and New York.
You can get recommendations for aviation attorneys from consultants, brokers and other industry professionals. Remember, though, to consider the source of such recommendations; an aircraft manufacturer hoping to sell you an airplane is unlikely to recommend an attorney who will put the company through the wringer. On the other hand, if you're buying an aircraft from a particular manufacturer, it is very important to retain someone with recent experience negotiating contracts with that company. I recommend interviewing several candidates and questioning them in detail about their expertise. Can they provide the aviation tax advice you need? Are they too busy to take on your project? Who else in their office can you talk to when they aren't available? Does this lawyer seem like someone you will work well with?
If you're buying an aircraft, the most important thing your aviation lawyer should do is structure its ownership and operation to 1) minimize liability, 2) comply with FAA and DOT requirements and 3) minimize taxes and maximize tax deductions. Dealing with these three issues in isolation is relatively easy; putting them together in a satisfactory package can be enormously challenging. This is where your lawyer's depth of knowledge and experience will be most telling. But the truth is that you should consult your lawyer about any major developments involving the aircraft, such as a new loan, a new management company, changes in use, changes in law, damage incidents or changes in insurance needs. Of course, you'll also need an attorney when you sell the aircraft.
Finally, when retaining a lawyer for a major project, ask what it will cost. Attorneys hate this question, because projects often appear deceptively simple. Negotiating a purchase agreement with an aircraft manufacturer, for instance, can seem to be a relatively quick job–until tax and regulatory structure issues emerge, you decide to finance the progress payments and the draft management agreement arrives. When you discuss anticipated costs, be as specific as possible about the tasks required in order to avoid unexpected legal bills.
Legal Blunders
Here are some of the legal blunders I've encountered over the years. Most resulted when big, high-priced law firms attempted to operate outside their area of competence.
• Aircraft registration proved invalid because the owning company's president was a French citizen.
• A research project on Connecticut law to determine whether purchasing a jet there would be subject to sales tax concluded incorrectly that tax would be payable.
• A client who regularly chartered out his airplane discovered that his aircraft loan agreement prohibited charter flights.
• Aircraft was grounded at closing because the buyer's attorney sent the pink copy of the registration application to Oklahoma City.
• Part 91 aircraft operations were illegal because the lawyer put them in a "flight department company."

Results (ECAC Division III Championship)
Results (IC4A Championship)
BOSTON, Mass. – Despite sending a limited number of competitors, the nationally-ranked no. 10 MIT men's track and field team was able to secure a tie for 16th place at the ECAC Division III Championship hosted by Tufts University over the weekend. All-American Stephen Morton led the way for the Cardinal and Grey with a pair of top-five finishes in the long and triple jumps.
Hoping to improve on his season-best mark, Morton opened the weekend in the triple jump with a distance of 46 feet for a fourth-place showing. He currently sits third in the nation in the event. His jump of 22-8.50 feet in the long jump was good for second place. The sophomore heads into the NCAA Championship seeded fourth in the long jump.
Tech's only other athletes competing at the meet were the pole vaulters, led by Greg Tao. Tao was one of four competitors to clear 15-11.00 feet but finished third based on misses. The junior is tied for 10th in Division III entering the National Championship meet.
A pair of runners were also entered in the IC4A Championship at Boston University, competing primarily against Division I athletes. Yermie Cohen ran a 4:13.53 mile to finish 20th overall. Cohen is currently seeded 11th in the mile for next weekend's meet. Matt Bieniosek finished 24th in the 800 meters with a time of 1:54.79.
The NCAA Division III Championship will be held Friday and Saturday, March 13 and 14 at Rose Hulman Institute in Terre Haute, Ind.

The U.S. Grains Council is pleased with the WTO ruling in favor of the United States, Canada and Argentina in a case filed against the European Union in 2003. The three countries filed the case with the WTO in response to the EU's moratorium on the import of genetically modified crops and their products.
"The council has long supported the filing of this case believing that the EU moratorium is an unjustified trade barrier to U.S. corn in violation of WTO rules," said Ken Hobbie, USGC president and CEO. "We're pleased to see a positive ruling for U.S. producers."
While U.S. corn exports to Europe averaged $300 million a year for each of the three years prior to the moratorium in 1998, the actual amount of blocked trade is likely higher. Low duties and a shortage of grain in Europe in recent years would have resulted in higher trade volumes. Additionally, prior to the 2004 enlargement of the EU, several of the 10 acceding countries imported modest amounts of U.S. corn.
While the council is happy about the ruling, it should be stressed that corn imports won't start immediately. According to an outline issued by the U.S. Trade Representative, the final report on this ruling will not be filed until at least mid-2006. This could then trigger an appeal process by the EU that could take up to a year to complete.
"We recognize the right to appeal the ruling but feel confident this precedent-setting decision will stand," Hobbie said.
The council is actively engaged in educating legislators, regulators and opinion leaders in the EU and worldwide on the science behind the technology of genetically modified products. Using USDA funds and generous grants from the Iowa Corn Promotion Board and Nebraska Corn Board, the council has organized major events and programs such as the International Biotechnology Information Conference and the Biotech Harvest Media Tour. Just these two events have brought hundreds of policy makers and reporters from around the world — including the EU to the United States to learn first-hand from researchers and farmers the sound science and safety of biotech crops.
In 2004/05, U.S. farmers produced 42 percent of the world's corn. Of the 2004/05 U.S. corn crop, 52 percent was derived from biotechnology and 17 percent was exported.

Texas A&M University at Galveston is celebrating its 50th anniversary, and Friday, part of that celebration included a special ceremony on the College Station campus.
When A&M launched what was then called The Texas Maritime Academy 50 years ago, the first 23 cadets actually started classes at the historic YMCA Building on the College Station campus, where Friday's ceremony was held.
The Maritime Academy is now part of Texas A&M at Galveston, where the training ship, the General Rudder, is based.
A&M President R. Bowen Loftin, who used to be president of TAMU-Galveston, talked to News 3 about the significance of the Galveston campus.
Loftin said, "The Maritime Academy was the precursor for what we now call Texas A&M University-Galveston, which is a more comprehensive organization. We've got 2,000 students down there and about 400 faculty and staff, and the beauty of the place was that as the CEO, I could get my arms around it I could actually know everybody. I can't do that here with 60,000."
The Texas Maritime Academy part of TAMU-Galveston now enrolls about 447 cadets who are studying for careers in marine transportation, marine engineering, and Navy Reserve Officer training.

Good quality. I wear a 36: and ordered a 36", but have to use the last hole...no room for expansion here.
Neat looking belt. Should have ordered the 1 1/2 inch wide one but that was my own fault. Still going to use it anyway.
A little cheaper looking than I expected but fit was good, workmanship is good and it serves the purpose
Good quality belt. Looks good, too.
Very nice
The belt was great but I could of used a size smaller.
I love the belt, however it would be nice if it came in larger sizes. I'm borderline on a 44-46" waist line. The largest this comes in is 44". And I have it in the very first hole. It's a bit snug, but wearable. I've noticed that on most of the belts offered, 44" is the largest size offered. Not sure why they thing that everyone riding motorcycles these days are size 44 or smaller.

If you guys haven't seen the video that brought her to my attention:
If you don't want to be angered, don't watch the video.
Beyond that, it seems the rest of her channel is the typical run of the mill, bible-thumping fundamentalist fare, with lots of anti-atheist rhetoric. But the sad part is that I feel that there are other fundamentalists who share her sentiments (not just the "the tsunami is revenge for Pearl Harbor" idiots). For every disaster, there's always some pundit saying that it was God's punishment or warning for sin. That absolutely sickens me.
How can a religion that promotes peace and forgiveness be so disgusting? Yeah, I'm used to those intolerant to atheism, but this just goes too far.
Views: 198
Is there another link to her original video? Seems it is no longer available.(?)
I've seen Thunderfoot's commentary on it and yes, it is pretty obvious in that short clip that it is simply a Poe.
I have been to Sendai in the past. I am deeply saddened by the pain and sufferings of the Japanese people at this very moment. Yet, I live in a country (Philippines) where moronic Catholics and Christians behave and believe in the same bat shit as the girl (Tantampamela) has perfectly portrayed that I can only AGREE with her 100%.

Feasting on the Word Curriculum: Teaching the Revised Common Lectionary — a groundbreaking, lectionary-based curriculum that's centered on the popular Feasting on the Word commentary series — is adding valuable new features to its curriculum line for churches this fall.
Beginning in fall 2013, Joining the Feast — an indispensable resource for pastors that nurtures the relationship between worship and education — will include children's worship bulletins that feature a Bible story, coloring picture, and activity that engages children in a fun and peaceful way to the focus scripture for the week. By receiving their own bulletins, children are reminded that they are important members of the church community.
"Children delight in familiar stories, and encountering a story in several ways helps them hold it in their hearts. With these bulletins, children can read and see a picture of the story they explored in Sunday school as they hear about it in worship readings and preaching," said Rebecca Grothe, children's editor, Feasting on the Word Curriculum.
A weekly Bible story that can be told during the children's time of worship will also be included in the quarterly subscription to Joining the Feast.
Feasting on the Word Curriculum — developed in partnership by Congregational Ministries Publishing and Presbyterian Publishing Corporation — is an ecumenical, downloadable resource that provides four different approaches for each of the lectionary readings in the Revised Common Lectionary.
Designed for a classroom setting among various age levels — children, youth, young adult, and adult — the curriculum enables everyone to explore the same Bible passage in church each week, making it easy for families to learn and live out their faith together.
"I love that [Feasting on the Word Curriculum] helps children and teachers learn about the flow of the church year," said Barbi Smith, New Hope Presbyterian Church, St. Charles, Missouri. "That was really evident last year during the children's time in worship on the first Sunday of Advent; when the pastor asked, 'Does anyone know what today is?' expecting the kids to say no, six hands went up. A first-grader answered, 'The first Sunday in Advent.'"
Feasting on the Word Curriculum is available as a Total Church Plan, in 9-month and 12-month plan options. The Total Church Plan includes curriculum for all ages (including Multi-Age), as well as a children's music CD and Joining the Feast, at no additional cost. Seasonal pricing and a photocopied format are also available. Place your curriculum order for fall at: feastingcurriculum.com

Excerpted from "Behavior Changes After Stroke," appearing in the Stroke Connection Magazine January/February 2005. (Last science update March 2013)
Cognitive deficits are changes in thinking, like difficulty solving problems. This category also includes dementia and memory problems, as well as many kinds of communication challenges.
"We tend to see more short-term memory problems in people with left-brain stroke," says Dr. Spradlin. "Long-term memory is usually preserved, but they may also have difficulty learning new information. They will likely need to have things repeated and be reminded over and over.
"People with right-brain strokes have memory problems of another kind — they tend to get things out of sequence or misinterpret or confuse information." These survivors may mix up the details surrounding an event. Usually, they can recall events but get confused about when they happened or who was involved. For example, they may think a family member visited this morning rather than last night.
Learn some simple tricks to improve memory.
Communication in all its forms is often altered after a stroke, but the location of the stroke makes a difference as to what will be affected. In addition to communication problems like aphasia, a condition affecting the ability either to understand or process language, communication deficits may include decreased attention, distractibility and the inability to inhibit inappropriate behavior. "Some survivors are unable to 'read' people, for instance, not understanding the emotional context of a message or not understanding body language," said Dr. Spradlin. "Some experience a deficit we call perseveration, in which the person is unable to refrain from certain behaviors. They can't seem to 'put the brakes on.' They might not be able to get off a specific topic during conversation. As you might guess, family members can get very frustrated."
Problem-solving ability is sometimes affected, usually more in survivors of right-brain strokes. "This is due in part to these survivors being impulsive and having decreased awareness of their deficits (See Improving Awareness to Speed Recovery). They think they can do things safely that they actually can't do. For example, get up and walk or drive or even return to work. They tend to be impulsive and fail to think before they act. This reflects an inability to think through a situation rationally."
Cognitive rehabilitation is usually provided on an outpatient or home basis by speech language pathologists. Neuropsychologists and occupational therapists can also help with cognitive rehab. There are computer software programs available to help survivors regain skills, too. "There are compensatory strategies like use of a 'memory notebook' to record important information as well as what they have done, etc. For higher-level patients, we use PDAs (personal digital assistants). We also encourage computer games and activities to exercise the mind, things like word puzzles, watching Wheel of Fortune, and playing cards or dominoes — thinking games."

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – MIT men's basketball orchestrated a 15-4 run in the last three minutes of the second half to rally past Springfield, 68-57, on Wednesday in a New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) game. The Engineers weathered a poor shooting performance in the first half to stay unbeaten at home, while tying WPI for first place in the conference standings.
Senior Jimmy Bartolotta and freshman Jamie Karraker each scored 20 points to lead the way for MIT (16-5, 7-1), which trailed 29-23 at the break after shooting 26% (8-of-30) from the field. Bartolotta, who ranks second in the NCAA in scoring, was held without a field goal in the first half and was virtually kept off the stat sheet. In the second half, and especially late, the fourth-year star from Littleton, Colo., took over the tilt.
Bartolotta canned a pull-up jumper three feet beyond the top the arc to break a 53-53 tie with 3:14 left in regulation. On MIT's next trip down the floor, Bartolotta drove to the middle and kicked out to Karraker on the wing for another three. After a pair of Springfield (9-11, 1-6) free throws, Bartolotta again drove down the middle before delivering another pass in the corner that Billy Johnson converted for three more points. It was free throws the rest of the way for both sides as the Engineers' held the Pride without a field goal over the final eight minutes.
After a stunningly quiet first half, Bartolotta finished with 20 points on 5-of-14 shooting, with three assists, three steals, and four blocks. Karraker, who scored the first nine points of the game for MIT, finished 5-of-8 from the outside and 7-of-12 from the floor. Eric Zuk added 11 points for the Engineers, while Billy Johnson chipped in eight points and a game-high 14 rebounds. Johnson struggled from the field on Wednesday (2-of-16), but his three inside the final minute sealed the season sweep for MIT against Springfield.
John Strawson led the Pride with 18 points on 5-of-7 shooting and grabbed a team-best eight boards. Pat Crean dropped in 11 for Springfield, which led by as many as nine early in the second half.

In what had been her weakest event over the past two seasons, Glenview's Lana Gehring put herself in the same company as the greatest women's speedskater in U.S. history.
Saturday in Shanghai, Gehring won the bronze medal in the 500 meters at the World Short Track Championships.
The last U.S. women's short track world championship medalist at the distance was Bonnie Blair, who took gold in 1986 after silver in 1985.
It was the first individual event world medal for Gehring, 21, a relay bronze medalist at the 2010 Olympics.
Gehring (44.815 seconds) finished third to Fan Kexin of China (44.438) and Arianna Fontana of Italy (44.467).
The strong performance moved Gehring up to sixth place in the overall classification after she had finished 11th in Friday's 1,500. The top eight after Sunday's 1,000 qualify for the 3,000 super final and a chance at an overall medal.
"I never thought I would get a bronze in the 500," Gehring said. "That's out of nowhere for me. I had a slow day yesterday, but I definitely came back today strong and I'm very happy."
Gehring began her World Cup career as a 500-meter specialist. Since then, more endurance training improved her results in the longer races, and an Achilles tendon injury curtailed her sprint training. Prior to worlds, she had raced the 500 just once internationally the past two seasons.

Buffington Takes Road Race at Classic
The Amsoil NELCAR Legends Tour was back at New Hampshire Motor Speedway for one of the most insane weekends of the year, the 89th annual Loudon Classic, otherwise known as "Bike Week." The field has been getting tight in recent road course races, as last year's dominating driver, Shaun Buffington, has been shut out in the two road course races thus far this season by Evan Beaulieu and Reid Lanpher. However, on Sunday, he knew he had a shot to win and did not disappoint the many fans who came out to enjoy their day at "The Magic Mile."
The fifth race of the Moat Mountain Legends Series showed 22 of the best Legends Car drivers, once again doing battle on the 1.6-mile road course. On the pole with a new track record in qualifying was defending Legends Tour champion, Evan Beaulieu, with current points leader Matt Bourgoine on his outside.
At the start, Beaulieu was able to get the jump into Turn 1 with the lead, but he had both Bourgoine and Lanpher hot on his heels as the top three were able to open up some distance on the rest of the field. It was all Beaulieu in the lead until the halfway point, when Lanpher started to close in and made his move to the race lead, which allowed both Bourgoine and Buffington to catch up and start a four-car battle for the lead.
The first yellow would come out with five laps to go. While battling for the lead, Lanpher went off in the downhill section of the track, along with Ryan Hammar (mechanical failure).
On the restart, with only five laps to go, Beaulieu opted to restart from the outside, with Buffington running next to him. The two had a drag race into the first corner, but Buffington was able to get around and take the lead. The two – who fought each other hard in the first road course race of the season – were once again running 1-2 for the win. Beaulieu would stalk Buffington for the final laps, but Buffington was able to open up enough distance to hold him off, as he took his first road course win of the season. Beaulieu finished second (for the sixth straight race), while Bourgoine rounded out the top three. Tom Gray and Bob Weymouth finished fourth and fifth, respectively.
After 10 races, Bourgoine holds on to the Amsoil NELCAR Legends Tour points lead, but it's tight up at the top as Beaulieu sits only three points behind. In the Moat Mountain Legends Series at NHMS, Buffington was able to stretch out his points lead to four points over Beaulieu and 33 ahead of Lanpher.
The next stop for the Tour is at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway on Thursday, June 21, for the second round of VIP Thursday Thunder. Racing starts at 7 p.m. The Tour will be back at Star Speedway on Saturday, June 23 at 6 p.m. For more news, info and how you can get into Legends Car racing, visit nelcar.net.

Getting The Music Business Over The 'But We Must Sell Music' Hump
from the it's-not-all-there-is dept
However, there was a second point that I later tried to make that again I never had a chance to follow through on, and wanted to do so here. People were asking about what business models are working for musicians, and I started listing out some examples, and a loud gentleman in the front row yelled out that the business model that had to be at the center was selling music. I responded with what I thought was an important question: "Why?" and again people started yelling. Of course, no one answered the question, and then the panel shifted gears to another topic.
But, the reaction from the crowd on that question cemented for me one of the biggest reasons why some in the industry have struggled to grasp new business models. As I discussed in my NARM presentation a few months ago, selling music is just not a good business model, but it doesn't mean there aren't good, very profitable, music business models. It's just that selling music isn't a very good one. Instead, you need to learn to use the music (which still needs to be good, and is still the central reason why these other business models work) to sell something else -- something scarce, which can't easily be copied. That can be attention, access, time, creative ability, cool physical products, whatever. All of those things are made more valuable the more popular the music is, and you can build all sorts of powerful and immensely profitable businesses once you recognize that.
But if you still think that selling the music or making money directly from the music has to be at the "center" of any music business model, you're shutting yourself off to the largest opportunities out there. But, the thing is, music has always been a product that makes something else more valuable. While there was some disagreement on the panel from someone about how record stores were profitable in the 70s, that's a case where the music was making the vinyl (and later, plastic) more valuable. Today, it makes iPods more valuable. As the big box retailers know, it acts as a loss leader to bring people in to buy higher margin goods. Music is great at selling other, higher margin things. If you ignore that in the music business model, you're missing the big opportunity.
This isn't to downplay the importance of music, or say that the quality of music doesn't matter. It absolutely does. But the music is not the scarcity, and you don't make money off of selling something that's abundant. You use the abundance to figure out what other scarce goods it makes more valuable and you sell those. So, people can complain and shout all they want, but it doesn't change the basic fact that until you recognize that selling music directly just isn't a very good business model, you're limiting your market tremendously.

For Allentown, Penn State football and President Barack Obama, 2012 was a year of new beginnings.
For Jerry Sandusky, certain Catholic priests in Philadelphia and leaders of the Boy Scouts of America, it was the year the past caught up with them.
For many others in the Lehigh Valley, 2012 will be seared in our memories as the year of Sandy: Superstorm Sandy and the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
