Reasons For Wonderful Wine Racks

Wine racks are a sign of the serious oenophile, or wine conoisseur.
That’s “racks,” plural, mind you – rows and rows of them, in all probability in a climate-controlled basement cellar, what’s more!

How does one get going?
Numerous fairly good introductions can be found online.
Just before purchasing wine racks and other paraphernalia of the hobby, do a easy Google search and peruse as many as possible to get a good all-round education.

Usually, the first thing to do is to sample some wines.
Again, using the internet ought to be a great place to start: check to see whether any wine tasting events are being held in your area, whether sponsored by a club or a merchant or even – especially – a local vineyards!
Once you create your own sense of your own tastes, you may be ready for those wine racks for your own home!

No, not a full-fledged qualified cellar such as described at the outset, however, but simple decorative fare good for your kitchen or den or, even, study!
A cornucopia of options is out there for the rest of us who cannot afford dedicating our basements to storing wine.
Racks can be produced out of virtually any material nowadays, into almost any design.
Some aren’t even immediately recognizable as such without actually holding a bottle or two of wine!

But you’re not done yet.
If you need to really get into wine, you might “wine” up getting a hundred-dollar wine newsletter – Robert Parker’s famous “The Wine Advocate.”
He’s the premier wine critic in the business, so much so that what he says will actually have an effect on the market!
But one thing to always remember, no matter how far along you go in this hobby: trust your own taste buds.
Never feel like a thousand-dollar bottle of wine is supposed to taste good!
If you enjoy the twenty-dollar bottle, that’s what you like – period.

Surprising Real Estate Case Law in Alabama

No need to be an industry veteran like Isaac Toussie to know that different jurisdictions can handle real estate matters differently. It’s what makes real estate law so fascinating – as well as quite a challenge to stay on top of! Take Alabama for an example. There, property buyers cannot rescind their purchases even in cases of demonstrable seller fraud – when that property has been bought on a strictly “as-is” basis. That’s right: Alabama case law takes the old dictum of caveat emptor very, very seriously, to the point of, in effect, allowing for otherwise illegal activity!

A recent case determined that an as-is clause in the sales contract not superseded by another provision will be interpreted literally, or “as-is.” That’s right, it’s really been upheld that misrepresentations are entirely legal under that basis.. Most anywhere else that’s just fraud and will probably lead to some jail time, yet in the Heart of Dixie the as-is clause is king and must be specifically superseded by some other provision agreed to by seller and buyer – or the as-is clause shall be interpreted literally!

This was a rather clear-cut situation as far as that particular court saw it, but it should be noted that not everything is always as draconian as that. As if evidence of a peculiar regional preference for legal loopholes of all kinds, Alabama law will only hold such a strict view towards used property, not new ones. Such as-is clauses are also superseded in cases where the misrepresentation is not obvious and potentially harmful to health and safety.

Alas for the plaintiff in Teer v. Johnston, however, while the misrepresentation was not something obvious it was not deemed harmful to health or safety, constituting an inconvenient nuisance instead. What plaintiff ought to have done was stipulating in the contract or the deed that pre-sale disclosures hold despite the sale!

A Healthcare Partnership for New York

Local assistance has always been important to institutions such as hospitals and medical schools. Even smaller facilities such as those dedicated purely to research requires a large helping of such backing, especially in the form of philanthropic dollars. Oftentimes, these generous donors can be found contributing to more than one institution, as is the case with Isaac Toussie and family with regards to two of the leading names in healthcare teaching and practice in the Empire State, Weill Cornell Medical College and the North Shore-LIJ network of hospitals and research centers.

Weill Cornell is named after its two single most important contributors, Ezra Cornell, of Western Union fame, and Sanford I. Weill, the onetime chief of Citigroup, Incorporated. It is one of the most selective medical schools in the United States, admitting only some one hundred applicants out of almost six thousand hopefuls every year. What’s more, Weill Cornell was first to accept women right alongside men as well as the first American medical school to establish its own premises overseas, right outside of the capital of Qatar, Doha. Many a notable graduate has boosted the school’s reputation over the years, famous public people like C. Everett Koop, a Surgeon General of the United States; Robert C. Atkins who invented the Atkins Diet; Nobel Prize winner Robert W. Holley; and Henry Heimlich of the Heimlich Maneuver. The North Shore-LIJ Health System is the second largest healthcare network in the country as measured by the number of beds and the largest in New York State based on patient revenue. It serves over seven million people a year through more than forty-two thousand employees – the single largest employer on Long Island and ninth largest largest in the City of New York.

These two institutions owe much of their success to vigorous community support, whether in the form of financial donations from prominent businessmen and women or donated time by community volunteers of civic or religious organizations. Even with an annual budget of several billions between them, vigorous local support will never be unnecessary for the health of Weill Cornell and North Shore-LIJ!

Of Diversion Safes and Transformers

Diversion safes are the stuff of childhood fantasies for me, when every book, key, or other frequent item could contain a key or treasure map in its hollowed-out core.

That secretly, the [...]
