In Concord, New Hampshire May 5th, 2001 was an uneventful day. It was a sunny, dry, and warm day, not unusual for the spring season in New England. That Cinco de Mayo, Bob Senko, who was still exhausted from the night before, had to drive his pregnant wife Christine to the hospital. Once they arrived and Chris was in the delivery room, Adam’s father decided that a Penguins hockey game would be more entertaining to watch than his own son’s birth. As Bob sat watching Pittsburgh lose in overtime to the Buffalo Sabres, a boy was born at 4:48 in the afternoon. He weighed seven pounds and nine ounces and measured 20 and three-quarters inches tall (Senko Interview). Although Adam’s birth was largely insignificant, there was some actual news in crime,

Only two cases in the last sixty-five years have been tried by the Supreme Court regarding gun regulations and the right to keep and bear arms. Both of these cases have ended similarly, 5-4 votes in favor gun rights activists. Justices who dissented wrote that owning a firearm for personal use was not a "liberty" interest protected by the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Other Justices wrote that there is nothing in the Second Amendment's "text, history, or underlying rationale" that characterizes it as a "fundamental right" warranting incorporation through the Fourteenth Amendment (Mcdonald v. Chicago Oyez.com). Much of the debate in these cases is whether owning a firearm for personal use is a “fundamental right” granted
Subsections (a)(1), (a)(2), (b)(4), (b)(5), and (d) of ET § 17-113, all illustrate that an agent’s primary obligation to a principal under a power of attorney is to act in the best interest of the principal, i.e., Daniel Katz. Id. Were this a motion for summary judgment Martin would easily show that he has acted constant with his obligations under ET § 17-113, but such is not the question here. Rather, the material question in this matter is whether plaintiffs have pleaded facts sufficient to show that Martin has acted inconsistent with his duties under ET § 17-113.
Years later a man name David Estes 46 years old claimed to be Grant Beaumont. This and claim that he felt that he was not part of the family, that he felt h didn’t belong and he decide to google his birthday for missing children and seen the picture of the disappearance of the Beaumont and knew it was him from the jump.

Eric Shinseki was the Secretary of Veteran’s Affairs at the time that the investigation broke. Afterwards he chose to step down after the discovery was made that the EWL had led to deaths not just a long waiting list for appointments. As the Secretary of the VA, Shineski could at the very least prevent a scandal of such magnitude from happening. This falls on him as a leader primarily because he should have been the coordinator and illustration of what ethical decision making looks like for his entire department. As managers, sometimes we must step out of our office, out of the meetings and go out and see what is and isn’t being done correctly in our facilities. Mr. Shineski chose to resign rather than answer questions from investigators,
I believe the first missed opportunity (when police were involved) to cut this case short came in March 1998 when Dr. Linda Reynolds raised concerns about the number of Shipman’s patients dying, and the circumstances surrounding the deaths. The Detective Investigator (DI), David Smith, appears to have failed doing a thorough background check on Shipman, and his supervisor’s lack of experience and ability to supervise such a case was the starting point (Smith, 2003). Had DI Smith completed a complete work up on Shipman, he may have had grounds to launch a full investigation due to his past conviction for fraud and drug usage (as a doctor). The other opportunity which I believe could have resulted in charges was the ordering of an autopsy and through review of the death and cremation certificates of Shipman’s past patients. Had an autopsy been conducted on the last two victims (they were available), the
Per our discussions with Andrew Bouie on composting at TSA, Brookfield would be responsible for requesting any modifications to existing contracts/agreements with TSA. Being that Brookfield has an agreement with TSA, a proposal should be submitted to Jose Duque, who oversees the contract for building lease, outlining the request. In addition, Marvin Miller, who oversees the contract with Unidine, will need to be contacted as well to establish any agreements with Unidine.
- Brittney did ask the client for email address for the verification process but never verified if it was okay to send an email to that email address. We need to make sure that we are verifying the email address before send out the email just in case the client does not have access to that email address at that time.

“Contracts law principles in general are uniformly understood and applied across the United States. Contract Law is governed by the common law and the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC Contracts vs Common Law Contracts, 2014).” “Common Law would lead to rejections if any changes were made to the contract (quantities, counter offers, etc.). Its terms include quantity, price, performance time, nature of work and identity of offer. Common Law does not allow revoking of the option contracts” (UCC vs Common Law, 2014). “Common Law is primarily used in real estate and the law is made by the decisions of judges in individual cases” (Rogers, 2012).
