Imagine you were ten years old. What were you doing? Were you in a park? Were you playing with toys? Now look around at ten-year old’s today. There seems to be a noticeable shift. Most of them have some sort of electronic device of their own, whether it be a smartphone or a tablet. That shift becomes even more apparent if you were ten years old, 30 years ago versus if you were ten years old only eight years ago. In the essay “Tweens: Ten Going on Sixteen,” Kay S.

Franchising is a common term in daily life, business discourse, and the law. Nevertheless, the term is used in different contexts and with different meanings. Coughlan, Anderson, Stern, and El-Ansary employ the European Union’s description of franchising as a “…package of industrial or intellectual property rights.” The EU identifies three features of franchising—a common name or sign, with a uniform presentation of the premises, communication of know-how from franchisor to franchisee, and continuing

Statewide, certain individuals are seen as celebrities. In Wisconsin, many of this individuals happen to be athletes and seeing them in “real life” is a big deal. For example, a friend of mine saw former NFL star Donald Driver while working the Hardee’s drive-thru and this was seen as a monumental occasion. Locally,
