Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law Greater Boston Business Law Attorney | Business Litigation Lawyer 2020-05-14T10:03:29Z WordPress On behalf of Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law <![CDATA[Questions to ask yourself when starting a new business]]> 2020-05-14T10:03:29Z 2020-05-14T10:03:14Z Forming a startup can be an overwhelming process for any entrepreneur, but it is a necessary step to take when building a successful business that takes into consideration the needs of the business and potential risks it will face. A business idea is just as valuable as a business itself, so it should be treated as such. Starting a business may seem like a tedious task; however, what is done during this time is essential to both the success of the business and the liability protection for those involved. Before taking the leap and starting a business, it is important to ask your self three things. First, is whether or not the business idea is big enough to justify the hard work you will be devoting towards it. The second question you should ask yourself is whether it is a unique idea. It must appeal to others for it to work. The final question is timing. Too soon could be setting yourself up for failure but too late could increase the competition. Once you have a unique business idea that is justified and ready to hit the world, it is important to build the right team. This means considering your business partners and well as those working below you. In beginning phases, this means coming to terms with the type of business you will form. Once that is established, various business and partnership contracts should be developed in order to protect your new business in case something goes wrong or a partner seeks to leave. No matter the size of the company, it is always important to remain nervous about its success. Developing a business plan that considers the potential risks and pitfalls could help you prepare for ways to not only avoid them but resolutions for when they occur. Because each business is unique like the product or service it provides, how a business starts and evolves will be unique as well. However, each and every business needs to be established, and that means completing the necessary steps to form a business. This additionally means taking steps to ensure your business is protected, especially when business partners and various contracts are involved. Those unsure of this process and the paperwork necessary to complete them should consider their rights and options when it comes to forming a business.]]> On behalf of Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law <![CDATA[Woman who inspired character argues movie violated her rights]]> 2020-04-24T16:05:55Z 2020-04-24T16:05:52Z filed a lawsuit against the producers of the film, arguing that it damaged her reputation and violated her publicity rights by using her likeness without her permission. Attorneys for the producers have asked a federal court to dismiss the case. Publicity rights involve complicated areas of the law that frequently come up in the entertainment business. Essentially, these are personal rights that allow a person to control the use of their name, portrait or picture. These rights can be important whenever a television program, film or other piece of entertainment is based on real, living people. Publicity rights stem from the right to privacy, which is an even more complicated topic. While the United States Supreme Court has long recognized a constitutional right to privacy, the extent of this right is a subject of much debate. It's up to the states to decide how much control people should have over the use of their likeness. Many states have their own legal traditions of protecting privacy rights, and some state legislatures have passed their own laws regarding publicity rights. Massachusetts has a dedicated right to publicity law, but it has limitations. The Massachusetts law is meant to protect the individual from having the commercial value of their name, identity or likeness exploited for someone else's gain. To violate the law, one must use the person's identity without written consent within Massachusetts for advertising or trade purposes. An injured party may sue a violator for damages. There are many exceptions under the law, and the results can vary greatly from case to case. However, before using the name or image of a real, living person in a new work, it's wise to talk to a lawyer about the legal issues involved. Many photographers and filmmakers have subjects sign a waiver that explicitly gives their consent.]]> On behalf of Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law <![CDATA[How can I protect my trade secrets?]]> 2020-04-17T08:51:59Z 2020-04-17T08:51:58Z way the disclosing party can protect themselves is by entering into a non-disclosure agreement with the other party. This type of contract to protect a trade secret can also be called a confidentiality agreement. While it may seem like every transaction should be bound by such an agreement, the ones disclosing parties should focus on are those in which valuable information is being disclosed and the other party needs to be prevented from using or selling the idea without the disclosing party’s permission. Some situations where entering into a non-disclosure agreement makes sense is when an invention is being shared with a potential investor, financial information is being shared with a potential buyer, new technology is being disclosed for a license and employees are being given access to proprietary information for their employment. A mutual non disclosure agreement is one where each side is expected to share information with the other, whereas a one-sided one expects only one side will be sharing information. NDAs generally require identifying parties and definition of confidential information, in addition to other elements such as exclusions of confidential information. There are also other elements that must be included in a nondisclosure agreement and an experienced attorney can guide disclosing parties through the steps of ensuring their information remains protected.]]> On behalf of Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law <![CDATA[Protecting intellectual property and the elements of a patent]]> 2020-03-31T09:55:27Z 2020-03-31T09:55:25Z intellectual property. Thus, tech companies in Massachusetts and elsewhere need to take steps to protect their intellectual property through either a copyright or patent. Depending on the needs of the company and the tech that they have, this can become a complex process that contains many working parts. With a startup, money is always needed, so what is better than pitching to potential investors that you own your intellectual property or have a license that protects it? While this can help promote investments in a new business, when innovative technology or ideas are involved, obtaining a patent may be an appropriate step to take. Doing so will also validate who innovative this technology or idea is. The approval process for a patent is rigorous. Furthermore, it can be complex, time consuming and costly. Thus, it is imperative that one fully understands this process, the costs and benefits and the overall protection it can offer for intellectual property when compared to other options. There are four patent elements to consider. The first is the patent quality. It isn’t until the patent intellectual property is workable will it provide tangible monetary value. This means that it will need to become part of a device, service or offering. Next, patent documentation needs to be complete, which means properly written, full research on prior patents and having a proper number of inventors named on the patent. The third element is location and market. It is important to note the patent system within the U.S. and how that impact a business plan and market strategy. Finally, intellectual property infringement should be understood so it can be provable. The goal of the patent is to protect the tech or idea; thus, a business should be able to prove this and defend their invention and business. Whether a business seeks to protect something of value or desires to take action following an infringement of a patent, copyright, trademark or trade secret, it is important to understand the steps included in these processes. This not only helps ensure that a business owner is aware of their rights and options but also provides them with a better understanding on how they can best protect their business overall.]]> On behalf of Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law <![CDATA[Think a non-compete could help you? Be wary of these factors]]> 2020-03-25T08:24:21Z 2020-03-25T08:24:19Z protect their interests in both the short and long-term. As you get your business up and running, one form of protection you may want to think of utilizing is non-compete agreements. These contractual arrangements disallow employees from working in certain fields, markets, and professions upon leaving your employ. The goal of the agreement is to secure an individual’s talents while minimizing the risk of him or her becoming an immediate competitor. This may include limiting a former employee’s ability to disclose information that is critical to your business’s success, such as customer lists, marketing strategies, pricing methodologies, and information related to research and development. There are strict parameters surrounding non-compete agreements given the strict restrictions they place on the free market. Therefore, regardless of the agreement of the parties involved, certain factors may be considered when determining if a non-compete agreement is legally enforceable. To start, should a dispute over a non-compete agreement arise, a court will consider the duration of the agreement. If the exclusion from competition last forever, then a court will probably deem it unenforceable. Therefore, should you choose to utilize non-compete agreements, you need to negotiate a realistic timeframe, which may depend on a number of factors such as the size of the market and the sensitivity of the talents and information possessed by the employee. However, Massachusetts law generally won’t allow for a restriction that lasts longer than a year. Another consideration is the geographic scope of the restriction. Under Massachusetts law, the restriction can only be applicable to the area where the employee worked or had a substantial presence. The type of work performed, where it was performed, and the prevalence and notoriety of the work conducted therefore dictate the geographic scope of a non-compete agreement. To make it enforceable, you need to make sure that it is reasonable and is applicable only to the specific kind of work the employee performed while with your business. There are  a whole host of other requirements and restrictions pertaining to non-compete agreements. For example, under the state’s “garden leave” provision, an employer is required to pay a former employee 50% of his or her salary after leaving employment if he or she is subjected to a non-compete agreement. This may be quite costly to your business, so you’ll need to conduct some sort of cost-benefit analysis. This area of the law is constantly evolving, and you need to stay on top of it if you want to keep ahead and ensure that you are utilizing it to your advantage. This can certainly be intimidating, but attorneys who are experienced in this area of the law stand ready to build a relationship with you to ensure that your needs are met as your business continues to grow.]]> On behalf of Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law <![CDATA[The value of a good business attorney]]> 2020-03-18T19:13:32Z 2020-03-18T19:13:31Z experienced business attorney for any number of reasons. The value in a great business attorney will not be hard, nor will it take long, to recognize. First, without proper guidance it is easy to become overwhelmed by the mountain of required paperwork. An attorney will draft these documents for you, making sure that no stone has been left unturned. This gives a business owner the peace of knowing their legal interests are adequately protected, and all operations will be compliant with state and local laws, rules, or regulations. There is immense value in getting this right from the very first day of operation. This step alone is reason enough to consult legal counsel prior to opening for business. Often, business attorneys will work with other tax attorneys or accountants to ensure your business entity is formed for your greatest benefit. There are several differing types of business entities, each with its own set of tax ramifications. If not formed properly, a business may end up with a large, unexpected tax debt. Since no one want that to happen, speaking with a business attorney is definitely in your best interests. Finally, we can count on one bottom line, which is that unexpected things are always going to happen. Oftentimes, new business owners have no idea what to do in a good amount of the situations that can arise. Therein lies the value in having an expert to call for back-up. Correct advice is invaluable. In some business situations, it can even mean something as serious as making a wrong decision and having to serve jail time. This is the reason taking the time to properly set up a business from the start is so important.]]> On behalf of Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law <![CDATA[Benefits and drawbacks of sole proprietorship business formation]]> 2020-03-10T14:47:59Z 2020-03-10T14:47:58Z sole proprietorship. It is a simplified strategy get a business off the ground. One individual owns it and there is no separation between that person and the business itself. It is unincorporated and the person bears the responsibility for everything involved including debt, loss and liability. There is no specific action needed to become a sole proprietor. Regarding benefits of a sole proprietorship, there are several. The cost of forming it is minimal. The legal fees are limited to getting permits and licenses. The owner maintains full control of the business and does not need to answer to partners, shareholders or anyone other than the customer. All decisions are made by the individual. Taxes are relatively easy to prepare since there is no separation of taxes between the business and the owner. The rates are the lowest of all business types. However, there are negatives. The sole proprietor is completely responsible for any issue with the business. Without the legal shield that other types of business formations provide, this can leave the owner vulnerable to liability concerns and, of course, debt. It can be difficult to raise money as a sole proprietor. There is no stock to sell meaning investors cannot derive profit from it. Banks are reluctant to lend due to the risk of the business failing. Finally, there is a significant burden on the owner as it is up to him or her to run the operation and make it a success. Some businesses are better off as a sole proprietorship while others could do well with a different formation. Starting a business can be stressful enough without thinking about whether the preferable business type was selected. For advice in determining if a sole proprietorship is the way to go or there are better alternatives, a legal professional experienced in business formation may be able to help.]]> On behalf of Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law <![CDATA[How do you settle a dispute with a business partner?]]> 2020-02-25T06:02:12Z 2020-02-24T06:00:00Z Business partners, especially when starting a new small business together, often have trouble imagining that they'll get involved in serious disputes. They lose sight of it because of their excitement, because they look forward to working together and for a host of other reasons. This is often when they skip over steps like creating a partnership agreement.

What you have to remember, though, is that disputes are inevitable. They happen to the best and worst business partners. They're simply a part of running the company.

For instance, maybe you are the day-to-day operations manager. You make sure things go smoothly. Your partner works with investors and manages the money. What happens when they start to spend money in a way you don't approve of?

Maybe you worry that they're stealing. Maybe you think they're wasting money. Maybe you don't think they're spending enough. No matter what it looks like, it puts some stress on the relationship, and you need to know how to move forward.

This is when having an official partnership agreement in place can help. It can tell you who has what responsibilities -- do you actually have a say in how the money is used? It can set up dispute resolution tactics. It can tell you about your rights and obligations. Think of it as a blueprint for everything you need to know when things do not go exactly how you planned or how you hoped.

As you can see, it's very important to be realistic and to plan in advance. Make sure you know exactly what legal steps to take.

On behalf of Seth H. Salinger, Attorney at Law <![CDATA[Create a partnership agreement when adding someone new]]> 2020-02-25T06:02:14Z 2020-02-10T06:00:00Z Maybe you started your business on your own, and it did well enough to be stable. Now you're thinking that you want to bring on someone else with a different skill set to take it to the next level. You need a business partner.

This is going to transform the way your business operates, and one of the most important things you can do is to create a partnership agreement. People sometimes skip this step just to speed things along, but that's very risky and you could end up regretting it in the future.

A few things that your partnership agreement may mention include:

  • The official day that you begin working together
  • If you have the right to remove that partner
  • What they need to do if they want to exit the business
  • What ownership percentage the two of you will have
  • How much you will each get paid
  • How long the partnership lasts for, even if there's not a definite end date
  • What duties and responsibilities you will each have
  • How you will resolve any disputes
  • What benefits you will get
  • What the two of you need to do together if you want to add a third partner -- or more -- in the future
  • What happens if one of you passes away; does the business go to the other partner entirely, for instance, or does your ownership pass to your family?

Every business may have unique details to add, as well, but this should get you started. Just make sure you know exactly what legal steps you need to take.

Two men, partners in a brewery, filed a copyright infringement lawsuit, contending their former partner wasn't authorized to take proprietary assets with him when he left the company.

In the lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Boston, the two men argue that their ex-partner – the former president and chief executive officer – walked off with beer recipes, artistic elements for packaging, social media information and contact lists. They contend he has incorporated those assets into his new, competing brewery.

Before they split up, the two sides went to mediation, and the third partner agreed to give up his seat on the board though he still owns a share of the company. They agreed to a buyout agreement in December 2019.

The two men said they have evidence that their former partner accessed a password-protected file last November that contained the recipes and that he had no reason to get into the file for company business at that time.

In a counter-motion, the former partner said that agreement allows him to own a competing company. And he said he didn't steal recipes for his beer and has permission from the unaffiliated recipe owner to use them. He also said he was "in the process of doing" what the lawsuit requests – or had already done it – and there was no need for the men to sue.

The owners of the first company are asking the court to require the new company to stop selling the beer and to recall from stores any product currently on the market and pour it out. They also want him to get rid of – such as by shredding documents or deleting electronic files – any trade secrets.

A company's livelihood depends on proprietary information. This will be an interesting case to watch as it progresses through the court system.

Inspections will help to minimise your maintenance costs and keep your play equipment looking great for longer.

School Playground Equipment needs to be exciting and inspiring for young minds. A school wouldn’t be a school without School Playground Equipment, so what makes a play area so exhilarating?

Children love nothing more than having the opportunity to be creative, notice how much enjoyment they have from playing on climbing frames with their friends? Here at Setter Play, we supply school playground equipment that is suitable for all ages and abilities, providing everyone with the same opportunities to enjoy their childhood.

You want to capture children’s attention when you install a play area. Using bright colours and modern equipment will allow you to encourage children to use the equipment. One way you can do this is by installing the playground classics range that we provide at Setter Play. Our playground classics include swings, mound and tunnels and up and over equipment, all creating a welcome and exciting environment for children.

If you’re looking to install a new playground at your school, it shouldn’t just be about generating the “fun factor” for the children, but also help to continue their education outside of the classroom. It has long been regarded that, children learn new things through play, so why not incorporate this principle into your school’s playground?

Sitting behind a desk all day can be tedious and lead to difficulties in concentration, hence why an innovative playground can help to learn both in and out of the classroom. Our fundamental play units are tried and tested, making them perfect if you’re looking to install some playground favourites to help enhance the learning of your students. We also offer a bespoke surface, designing specific playground equipment to suit your school’s needs and provide only the very best educational aids for your pupils, encouraging them to be more imaginative and to think outside of the box.

Our imagination, Social and Natural school playground equipment is innovative in the sense that it helps to allow children’s imaginations to run free. A sensory garden is perfect for calming children down while allowing them to make the most of the space they have around them, whilst learning at the same time.

School Playground Equipment doesn’t only encourage children to make friends and socialise with their peers, it can assist with the social and physical development of children. There are many allegations see-sawing from the idea that schools aren’t doing enough to help children to exercise, resulting in more cases of child obesity.

However, who’s to say, installing new School Playground Equipment can’t improve the physical and mental health of children? We provide equipment that requires children to use not only their minds but their physical strength to climb, reach and support their own body weight. Take our Spiffy products for example!

What about adults?

School Playground Equipment doesn’t only provide young children with a sense of freedom, it allows parents and teachers to relax, knowing that children are in a safe environment where they can be supervised.

There are other advantages to school playground equipment, such as with our bespoke canopies and entrance canopies, which can provide shelter for when it’s raining, allowing you to wait and keep dry! We can create curved beam canopies or forest canopies, however, if you have a specific design in mind, we will be more than happy to discuss this in detail with you.

So, when it comes to School Playground Equipment, look no further than Setter Play, we can provide you with the playground classics or something bespoke, offering a certain uniqueness for your school play area! Don’t hesitate to browse our full range of products!

Police Commissioner Victor Hwang elected newest SF judge

San Francisco Police Commissioner Victor Hwang appears to have been elected to serve as The City’s newest Superior Court judge, beating out fellow former prosecutor Paul Henderson.

Hwang, who has worked as both a public defender and prosecutor, said that San Francisco has its own “definition of justice,” and judges must reflect San Francisco values while at their core remaining referees in the courtroom.

As a judge he would make sure that unheard people like immigrants and others feel they have been listened to and understand the process.

Henderson, meanwhile, had said judges must play a role to set a tone on how both sides will interact before a

If Lloyd "Popsy" Taylor could see what the Gott brothers have done to his 1949 St. Helena drive-in, he'd be rolling in his grave, said the Taylor family lawyer.

This week, with much fanfare, Joel and Duncan Gott changed the name of the landmark hamburger joint from Taylor's Refresher to Gott's Roadside Tray Gourmet. Now the late Taylor's two daughters, Jean Taylor Nicholson, 83, and Virginia Taylor Toogood, 80, are fuming.

Toogood said she and her sister are shocked and angered, and will fight to protect their family name and reputation. It would be akin to changing the name of the Martini Winery, the French Laundry or any other historic business in the community without consent, she said. "It's not right."

The Gotts took over the St. Helena restaurant from the Taylors in 1999 and turned it into an iconic mini chain, expanding it to San Francisco and Napa. They won a James Beard Foundation award in 2006 for the refresher's classic style and food.

So you'd think they would have the right to call the popular eating place anything they wanted. But that's where things get complicated.

It seems the Gotts, who are also Napa Valley winemakers, didn't actually buy the St. Helena location, but rather leased it from the Taylors until 2014, with an extra five-year option. Although the Gotts never agreed in writing to keep the Taylor name in St. Helena, the sisters believed they had the brothers' promise.

"Eleven years of use constitutes an agreement by conduct," said the Taylors' lawyer Patrick McGovern, who is now considering legal options against the Gotts, including eviction. "They don't have the right to destroy the family's trademark."

"I don't want to start a war - that's not our style," Toogood added. But she said she'd like to see the Gotts go back to using the Taylor name. "It's a real blow to our children and our grandchildren."

The problems started several years ago when the Gotts tried to register the trademark Taylor's Refresher, but Toogood fought it. In 2008 the U.S. Trademark Trial and Appeal Board ruled that the name Taylor's Refresher belonged to the Taylors.

The Gotts are appealing that decision in U.S. District Court, but in the meantime thought it made good business sense to change the name to their own, especially because they plan to expand. On Thursday and Friday, they promoted the name change in all three locations with food and drink giveaways and music - a move, said McGovern, that blindsided the Taylors, who were still in negotiations with the Gotts.

"The (Taylor family) sued us, saying, 'You don't have the right to use our name,' " said the Gotts' attorney, Jim Rose. "Now they're saying you have to use the name. My clients are tenants. They have a right to name their business whatever they want."

Rose says even the Trademark Board determined that the Gotts weren't obligated to use Taylor's name in St. Helena. But McGovern argued that they made an oral agreement that they would keep the name as long as they operated the St. Helena restaurant. The issue, he said, was using the name for the Gotts' locations at San Francisco's Ferry Building Marketplace and Napa's Oxbow Market.

"They took the name and acted like it was their own," McGovern said, adding that originally the brothers had committed to develop the 11 acres attached to the St. Helena restaurant and share the profit with the Taylors. Instead, said McGovern, they took the Taylor name and built businesses elsewhere.

To say that Popsy Taylor would be rolling in his grave, the lawyer said, "is an understatement."

If your home isn't selling, what should you do? Real estate agent Yawar Charlie, star of a new reality show, "Listing Impossible," can offer some hope and helpful advice.

CNBC's "Listing Impossible"—which premiered Jan. 15 and airs on Wednesdays at 10 p.m. EST—follows Charlie at the Los Angeles brokerage Aaron Kirman Partners as he and his colleagues devise fresh ways to revive stale listings and entice buyers to bite. There's even a surprise appearance from David Hasselhoff!

“It really gives you the nuts and bolts on what it takes to sell challenging homes, and what it takes to sell a home in general,” Charlie told realtor.com in an exclusive interview. "It’s not candy-coated, so the viewer really gets to see the process and the journey—not only of the home, but of the sellers.”

Curious why certain homes won't sell and what can be done to make them move, we talked with Charlie to hear his advice—for home sellers and buyers—plus the surprising story behind how he bought his first home.

Listing Impossible
Yawar Charlie of "Listing Impossible"

How did you end up buying your first home?

I used to be an actor in L.A., and I had worked pretty steadily. But when you’re my type, and this is back 15 years ago, there weren’t a lot of opportunities. I kept getting the note "too pretty for a terrorist."

I can laugh at it now, but at the time it was very annoying. Still, I was on a soap opera for a while and I took that money I earned and I saved it. I was thinking I should do something smart with it, and decided that I really wanted to buy a house.

I didn’t know where to start, so I sought out a casual acquaintance who was a real estate agent. However, this person was a horrible agent and didn’t take good care of me. It all ended up working out, though, because I ended up doing a lot of the research on my own, so I learned from that. In fact, I learned I had a real affinity for real estate.

How did you transition from home buyer to a real estate agent?

I casually set up a couple of real estate deals for friends and family. And my partner at the time said, "You know, Yawar, you’re really good at this, why don’t you consider this as sort of a supplemental career until acting really kicks in full gear?"

That was about 13 years ago, and within the first nine months of getting my real estate license and joining a team, I was the top new agent in my office. It was a real blessing because when you’re a creative person, you have to find an outlet for that creativity.

For me, when I work with someone selling a home, I find the creative side of things. I say, "Let's tell a story of this house, let's figure out a way to connect someone to it emotionally when they walk in the room."

Your new show is all about moving homes that seem impossible to sell. Why do you think certain homes sit on the market?

When something is sitting on the market, 9 times out of 10, it comes down to the price.

As simple as it sounds, if you price a property too high, it will sit unless it finds that one person who falls in love with it and has to have it. But that kind of Cinderella ending only happens in fairy tales. People want to make sure that they’re not overpaying on a house.

Home sellers should have an honest conversation with their real estate agent about what their house is worth. An agent who takes a house that's overpriced does that seller a disservice, because an overpriced house is going to sit.

Lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of agents who will underprice a property to get a quick sale or multiple offers. And I really think that sometimes that’s the way to go. However, it requires the seller to have a leap of faith that you’ll be able to get multiple offers, that someone won’t lowball you.

What should home sellers do if their listing isn't drumming up enough interest?

Our show is a good representation of what happens when properties have been sitting too long on the market. We come in, retool, rebrand, and relaunch each property. That includes staging, some light construction, decluttering, price adjustment, and the right marketing. These are all things that sellers need to think about.

We put together a list of items that I encourage the seller to repair or address before we go on the market.

I bring our stager in and have the quote for that. In today’s market, homes must be staged. If a house isn’t staged, it will be devalued. Because a lot of times, buyers don’t have imaginations. They’re like, "Oh wow, will my TV fit there? Will a couch look good here?"

We have to lay it out for them. Of course, there will be those visionaries that will walk through the door, but more often than not, people need to see it.

In addition to selling hard-to-sell homes, you work with a lot of first-time home buyers. What’s your best advice for them?

Some first-time home buyers think that they’re going to walk into something in their price range and, automatically, it’s going to have everything they want. But that’s usually not the case.

Buying that first home is important because, if you're renting, you are essentially setting money on fire. Even if it’s a smaller place, it’s important to get into something you own because there’s a tax deduction that people can take advantage of, and owning a home is like a forced savings account. That payment that you’re making every month to pay off the principal is paying into equity, so therefore when you go to sell that house, that equity will be there for you.

I like working with my first-time home buyer clients and setting expectations, which are: This won’t be your dream home, it’s not meant to be your dream home. It’s meant to be something that you like, that you are proud to live in, but that most importantly will build you wealth.

When they buy that first condo, they’ll be able to trade that in, in three to five years, for a larger condo or a single-family home. And then they’ll be able to flip that single-family home into a larger home that does really fit their dream. But it takes the second or third home to reach that dream home status for most people.

What advice would you offer both buyers and sellers on finding the right real estate agent?

Make sure you’re working with a real estate agent who is not a "yes" person, who will tell you the hard truth. Because at the end of the day, it does everyone a disservice if you’re working with someone who just tells you what you want to hear. There’s a reason we’re the professionals. We’re boots on the ground, we see the market trends, we’re showing homes every day. Work with someone you know and trust who's going to do right by you.

Dozen young sailors to join Tall Ships Races

Twelve young Shetlanders will take part in the Tall Ships Races 2019 which set off from Aalborg in Denmark next month.

Sail Training Shetland sail trainees and sponsors on board the Faroese sailing smack Westward Ho at Victoria Pier. Back row from left: sponsors David Goodlad (Mørenot Aquaculture), John Henderson (Lerwick Port Authority), Richie Fraser (EnQuest), Steven Hutton (JR Hutton Consulting), Peter and Joe Smith (Tulloch Developments).

Front: sail trainees James Phillips, 16, Jay Milne ,15, Xenon Johnson, 15, Aaron Regler, 15, Sarah Kissick, 21. Missing from photo, Laura Bowles and Jan Peters. Photo: Gordon Siegel

Sail training ship the Swan will depart Lerwick on 28th June to join the impressive fleet of ships in the Danish port. She will have 10 trainees on board.

A further two will join the Norwegian three-masted barque Statsraad Lehmkuhl to take part in the same
race from Aalborg to Fredrikstad in Norway.

The first race begins on 3rd July from Aalborg with the trainee groups disembarking on Saturday 13th July to start their return journey home.

Abi Marples, from Lerwick, is one of those taking part in the races, organised by Sail Training International and expects her time to be “amazing”.

The 21-year-old said: “‘I was fortunate to experience sailing on Swan thanks to Sail Training Shetland in 2014, taking part in Nordisk Sejlads between Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Now I can’t wait to get the chance to push myself further and experience life on board a much larger ship, Statsraad Lehmkuhl, and meet people from all over the world taking part in the Tall Ships Races.”

Sail Training Shetland chairman Peter Campbell said it was an incredible opportunity for all involved. “We are confident that their time on board will be very positive and look forward to learning of their sailing stories and race highlights when they return.”

He thanked Sail Training Shetland’s sponsors and supporters.

  1. Salam Alaykom, I've been a Twitter user myself for a very long time and honestly i don't think that i have ever come across a more toxic platform. There is so much division amongst members of society and religious sects on it. There are countless arguments on a daily basis amongst sects and other groups. At first i thought it due to Twitter's young users however this isn't the case, you get many full grown adults arguing on a daily basis too. It's as if they feed off it. What's your take on this? Do you share the same opinion?
  2. I can relate to it in the context of a couple of discussion boards (which I've outgrown) but I can't relate to it when it comes to popular social media platforms like those mentioned in tags. I don't have twitter or instagram or viber or whatever. I have a very old FB account which remains idle most of the year except lately when I've needed to use frequently to administer a travel group and do only and only that. But it seems social media is fast becoming a health hazard and a social crisis. I'm sure there are people among the readers who suffer from the addiction. How do you tackle it and what do you think about "social media addiction?"
  3. In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful. As-salaamu `alaykum dear friends, The ShiaChat staff have created a ShiaChat page on Twitter. We hope this is another way for us to stay connected and also a means of spreading awareness about ShiaChat. The URL to the ShiaChat Twitter page is: https://twitter.com/ShiaChatForum Please visit us at @ShiaChatForum follow our Twitter feed, share it with your family and friends and like and retweet to your heart's content! You can also help us by suggesting things in this topic that you would like to see us tweet or by giving suggestions on how we can improve our social media outreach. I'd also like to thank the ShiaChat.com Development Team who initiated this Twitter project. Don't forget to follow!
  4. (bismillah) (salam) Recently, I had been playing with Twitter data, specifically for the purpose of mapping tweeters that tweet Shi'ite messages during the first 10 days of Muharram. My hope was that we will extract a large data set, comprising Shi'ites tweeting about Ashura, Karbala, or Syed al Shuhada (as). My aim was to plot large Shi'ite communities across the world, from Pakistan to Japan, UAE to South Africa, and from the UK to Western American states. However, after extracting our data, I realised that out of the complete data set, only some tweeters had enabled their Location-tracking service - this meant that a large number of tweeters could not be mapped. Nonetheless... A blog post about the graphic may be read here, and an R script for generating the graph here. This graphic was inspired by the amazing night time world photograph, taken by NASA, and James Cheshire's work. (wasalam)
  5. Soo title says it all. All over twitter everyone is hash-tagging this joke of a trend. Basically, they try and justify how they are muslim, but they do NOTHING that makes them a muslim, to the contrary (hypocrisy). I dont want to spread this garbage, but I just wanted to post this thread to show that this just shows you how people are truly. You can change but its almost never possible. Your previous beliefs, thoughts, attractions, liking, will always influence your current faith and beliefs. Some are posting how they are a muslim but they dont wear hijab, or they listen to death metal. Some even go as far as saying some pretty disgusting stuff. Some say yes, I am a muslim and I party. Dont get me wrong, probably 85-90% of the tweets are like it, but some do have Islamic inclined tweets which brings some hope again. I just dont get this "im a muslim, but I dont do anything Allah tells me to do" mentality.... Im not hear to judge people on whether they are go or bad people, but im here to call them out on their hypocrisy. If they are actual "Muslims" who are trending this :rolleyes: Check it out for yourself: https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NotYourStockMuslim&src=tren
  6. Something similar was reported last year as well. The program is covert i.e. students are to hide the fact that they're being paid to write positively about the Israeli regime. Students offered grants if they tweet pro-Israeli propaganda In a campaign to improve its image abroad, the Israeli government plans to provide scholarships to hundreds of students at its seven universities in exchange for their making pro-Israel Facebook posts and tweets to foreign audiences. The students making the posts will not reveal online that they are funded by the Israeli government, according to correspondence about the plan revealed in the Haaretz newspaper. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office, which will oversee the programme, confirmed its launch and wrote that its aim was to “strengthen Israeli public diplomacy and make it fit the changes in the means of information consumption”. The government’s hand is to be invisible to the foreign audiences. Daniel Seaman, the official who has been planning the effort, wrote in a letter on 5 August to a body authorising government projects that “the idea requires not making the role of the state stand out and therefore it is necessary to adhere to great involvement of the students themselves, without political linkage or affiliation”. According to the plan, students are to be organised into units at each university, with a chief co-ordinator who receives a full scholarship, three desk co-ordinators for language, graphics and research who receive lesser scholarships and students termed “activists” who will receive a “minimal scholarship”. Mr Netanyahu’s aides said the main topics the units would address related to political and security issues, combating calls to boycott Israel and combating efforts to question Israel’s legitimacy. The officials said the students would stress Israeli democratic values, freedom of religion and pluralism. But Alon Liel, the doveish former director-general of the Israeli foreign ministry, criticised the plan as “quite disgusting”. “University students should be educated to think freely. When you buy the mind of a student, he becomes a puppet of the Israeli government grant,” he said. “You can give a grant to do social work or teach but not to do propaganda on controversial issues for the government.” http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/students-offered-grants-if-they-tweet-proisraeli-propaganda-8760142.html
  7. Salaam alaikum shiachatters There's a twitter campaign to worldwide trend Imam Ali! So at 8PM UK time (3PM US time) on 3rdJune trend Imam Ali as much as you can and as quickly as you can! We need roughly 2500 tweets In 11 mins ! The way to trend is to write #ImamAli in your tweet. So for example #ImamAli is the beacon of hope. Or simply #ImamAli So you twittering shiachatters:let's do this!

1960s Glamourous Gold Plated Wide Fancy Link Necklace 18"

18" / Gold / Gold Plated Metal

This late 1960s early 1970s gold plated wide link necklace is simply stunning.  The textured links give off an amazing shimmer in the light.  This is a piece that can be worn from day to evening.

This wide fancy link necklace measures 18" from end to end and has a 7/8" width. It is beautifully crafted and has a nice weight to it weighing 95.9 grams. The gold plating is in near perfect condition with very minimal loss seen where the clasp folds over the bar on the closure.

We normally do not pick up much in the costume jewelry world but this was so well made that I am guessing it had a hang tag when it was originally sold and most likely was a signed piece. Nonetheless, it is stunning and you will feel like you are dripping in gold sparkles!

This will come steamed cleaned and in a presentation box for you or to gift. Visit our shop to see the rest of our Estate Costume Jewelry Collection.

#9Baje9Minutes: Fire incidents reported in Hyd, other cities

This is the second time PM Modi has sought to rally people amid the ongoing lockdown

#9Baje9Minutes: Fire incidents reported in Hyd, other cities

NEW DELHI: Fire incidents reported in Hyderabad after crackers bursting on Sunday night.

The incidents were reported to took place in Ameerpet, Mehdipatnam and different cities across the country.

Prima facie, firecrackers burst by some people while responding to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s appeal to switch off lights at 9 pm might have sparked the blazes across few cities.

A massive fire broke out after a flying lantern fell on a hut in Jaipur’s Vaishali Nagar in Rajasthan.

A house close to the hut is also reported to be burned down in the incident.

A minor fire broke out at 9:30 pm on a stretch of grass near the runway of the Solapur airport in Maharashtra.

According to a Fire Brigade official, four fire tenders to the spot and the fire was extinguished within 15 to 20 minutes.

Fire also broke down in city’s Ramkrishnavl Nagar in Patna while people were lighting diyas and bursting crackers.

In a show of “collective resolve and solidarity” to end the “darkness” of coronavirus, PM Modi on Friday had urged people to turn off lights of their homes for nine minutes at 9:00 pm and light up lamps, candles, mobile flashlights.

As the clock struck 9, lights went out in most houses and people gathered in balconies and at doors, flashing mobile lights while many lit candles and diyas.

Fireworks, thalis, whistles and police sirens were heard.

At some places, Hindu devotional songs, mantras and national anthem were also played.

This is the second time PM Modi has sought to rally people amid the ongoing lockdown to combat the pandemic, which has claimed more than 65,600 lives globally and inflicted over 12 lakh people.

PM Modi’s earlier call to clap, on 22 March during ‘Janta Curfew’, blow conch shells or ring bells.

PM Modi in his 28-minute speech asked the nation’s public to “clap their hands” to combat the pandemic.

Soon, hashtags #TaaliBajao (clap our hands) #ThaliBajao (beat our plates) began trending online.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia Former Deputy prime minister Musa Hitam is representing Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak at the 32nd ASEAN Summit being held today in Singapore, according to a Foreign Ministry (Wisma Putra) statement.

Musa is accompanied by his wife Zulaika Sheardin, Foreign Affairs Ministry secretary-general Ramlan Ibrahim and senior officials from Wisma Putra, International Trade and Industry Ministry (MITI) and the Economic Planning Unit, Prime Minister's Department.

Singapore's theme, Resilient and Innovative, will provide a platform for the ASEAN leaders to deliberate on ASEAN solidarity and the organisation's ability to navigate emerging challenges such as terrorism and violent extremism.

It also reflects on Singapore's emphasis and commitment to promote schemes that capitalise on innovation, Wisma Putra said.

The two-day summit will also be a platform for the leaders to evaluate the progress of ongoing efforts to strengthen the ASEAN community, premised on ASEAN 2025: Forging Ahead Together, which sets overarching goals for the three pillars of ASEAN.

The leaders will exchange views on the future trajectory of ASEAN-led initiatives as well as contemporary issues germane to the interests of the region and the wider international community.

The summit is preceded by several meetings of different levels, namely, Meeting of the Committee of Permanent Representatives to ASEAN (CPR) on April 25; ASEAN Senior Officials' Meeting (SOM) on April 26, ASEAN Foreign Ministers Meeting, ASEAN Coordinating Council and ASEAN Political-Security Community Council Meetings today.

'
OBJECTIVES ': 'This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a "blended" workplace health-promotion intervention, alongside identification of key components beneficial for future implementation strategies.
 '
'
METHODS ': 'Within a cluster randomized controlled trial, 491 employees at increased risk of cardiovascular disease were allocated to the limited (N=217; 9 clusters) or extensive (N=274; 8 clusters) intervention. The extensive intervention consisted of motivational interviewing (MI) within the framework of a web-based health risk assessment (HRA), a blended care approach. The limited intervention received solely the web-based HRA. Occupational health physicians (N=21) within three organizations delivered the intervention. Implementation components investigated included: HRA (reach and participation), newsletters (percentage read), and MI sessions (number and quality). MI quality was determined by scoring audiotaped MI sessions, using the MI treatment integrity code. After 6 and 12 months, effects on participation in health-promotion activities and its associations with components of implementation were determined by mixed-effects models.
 '
'
RESULTS ': 'Over 80% of employees participated in health-promotion activities, with an additional 8% in the extensive compared to the limited group. In the extensive intervention, those with more or better quality MI sessions were more likely to participate in health-promotion activities. Increased MI quality was associated with sustained participation.
 '
'
CONCLUSIONS ': 'This study suggests that participation in health-promotion activities can be increased by adding MI to a web-based approach and improving the quality of the MI delivered. Interventions with MI should include optimized delivery and quality of MI sessions.

Every single team member I have met from day one is friendly, helpful and goes the extra mile to help students succeed.
The class is informative yet interactive with very experienced teachers.
Adult learners get to know each and form a great team.
Skills Gen helped me arrange placements and are very experienced and professional with handling any roadblocks that stand between you and getting into that career.
Highly recommend it to all my friends as I have gotten so much out of the course.
It has helped with the needed motivated to get an income to help myself and my young son improve our lives and have a brighter future.
Thanks again Skills Gen, you are all superstars!

Mariah Reid

I cannot recommend Skills Gen enough. When I first made contact with them, they were so welcoming and friendly and wanted the process to be about finding the best course/career suited to me.

The course work is easy to follow online and, in a classroom it is hands-on, taught by some of the best educators I've ever met.

Skills Generation did everything they could to make my experience a stress free one, and when I had issues with applying or even at the end finding placement, they were there to help me through it all.

I have since moved interstate, and the amount of job opportunities I have amazes me and it’s all thanks to the team at Skills Gen!

So Many Reasons to Go Dutch

November 16, 2019

There are certain things in life that make the perfect combo. Pancakes & syrup, banana & chocolate, Yorkshire puddings & gravy...and the Netherlands & Cycling. If I may, could I just squeeze the VW Campervan into that perfect Dutch Cycling combo. The Campervan was our vehicle of choice as we made our way through Essex & Kent through the Tunnel & across to the European mainland. And it made for a very comfortable journey & 2 night stay. Complete with inflatable awning & Thermal Wrap.

Our October Half Term break saw us head for Duinrell complete with water park, theme park & only 30 mins cycle from the beautiful coastal resort of Scheveningen. The Park is complete with everything you will need from restaurants, bars, bowling alleys, super clean shower blocks & great pitches for your VW Campervan.

The drive from Calais is only about 3 hours...although you can also take the ferry from Harwich which is a great start to your holiday & the drive is then only 45 mins from Rotterdam to Duinrell.

The major advantage for the cyclists is that the Netherlands make the whole cycling experience so pleasurable. Dedicated cycle lanes connect all towns & cities & enable you to park the Campervan, stick up the awning & head off on your bike. No need to drive anywhere. The Dutch refuse to make the car the main choice of transportation...cyclists are super safe on the cycle lanes & super connected. So make sure you choose the bike rack option & load up the bikes & take advantage of this super cycling friendly country.

Once you've done exploring around Duinrell then take some time to enjoy the water park & theme park. You'll need a full day to do both & the kids (and possibly Dad) will be asking to go back to the water park & ride the Death Slide. Its ACE!! The theme park is packed full of rides, toboggans and very healthy restaurants plus the odd pancake stall??!!

The costs of a nights pitch inc. entry to the water park & theme park was around £50 per night (although that was Oct.) But still amazing value & well worth heading across to the Netherlands for some seriously cool Glamping at Duinrell.
