Alcoholics and Drug Addicts | Tinder for Trust Beneficiary Fights - Duration: 4:09.
Dysfunctional families seem part and parcel of probate, estate, trust and elder financial
abuse litigation.
There's no getting around it.
Marks of such dysfunction include the assignment of blame, threats of exile or abandonment,
dominant and subservient relationships, grudges, disloyalty, winner/loser approaches to conflict
and fear of loss.
Family members with active addictions - alcoholics and drug (legal or illegal) addicts are common
participants in the drama endemic to estate and trust lawsuits.
So what should you expect when a trustee, executor, heir, beneficiary or elder financial
abuser has a destructive addiction?
You can start by assuming that the addict is in denial over his or her addiction issues
and wrongdoing stemming from the addiction.
A cloud of rationalization surrounds the addict – chaos, unpredictable behavior, and bad
conduct are explained away as the fault of others.
Given Hackard Law's focus on estate and elder financial abuse litigation, our practice
is like a classroom providing insights into the effects of substance abuse on families.
Familiar patterns involve an heir or beneficiary who is under-employed, not employed, or with
psychological problems that prevent meaningful income and employment.
These dysfunctional individuals can't control certain impulses like lying, drug dependency,
or anger issues.
Whether the individuals have been disinherited or a part of a scheme to disinherit siblings,
bad behavior abounds.
How do we deal with alcohol and drugs abusers in estate litigation?
This is an area where there is no magic bullet.
Trustees and executors with substance abuse problems can be expected to be irresponsible.
Poor accounting, little financial transparency and delays are common.
It is often evident that fiduciary duties have been breached.
When appropriate we petition to remove these irresponsible fiduciaries and replace them
with a responsible successor fiduciary.
We often nominate fiduciaries licensed by the State of California.
Once a bad trustee or an executor has been removed, we can force an accounting and follow
up with appropriate remedies for wrongdoing.
While we cannot reveal attorney-client confidences, we can reveal patterns that seem pervasive
when addicted individuals are part of an estate litigation fight.
The addict uses manipulation to exert undue influence on a vulnerable parent.
A parent's assets often end up in the possession of the abuser before a parent's death.
Just as often, a parent's estate plan is changed to benefit the abuser – many times
to the absolute exclusion of the abuser's siblings.
When abused beneficiaries contact us for representation in estate and trust cases involving alcoholics
and drug addicts, we can share that we have a lot of experience in the area.
Our experience provides insights and potential avenues to effective remedies.
That said, these are not easy cases.
Too many times the horse is out of the barn by the time that we get contacted.
If you would like to talk about how we might help you protect your inheritance or secure
that which has been wrongfully taken away, call us at Hackard Law: 916-313-3030.
We represent clients throughout California, from Sacramento and Los Angeles to San Jose
and the Bay Area, and we're happy to speak with you.
Thank you.

Kadenz Fermata//Akkord:Fortissimo (PC) - Epilogue - Duration: 8:49.
Camellia: Master...
'I' am indeed standing here, looking up at the sky.
Is it a final gift from my Master? A by-product caused from excessive contact with a higher-dimensional existence...?
Or perhaps, is it a 'miracle' derived from his power?
I was supposed to disappear for sure after Fermata's power was all used up, but I have been reincarnated with a human body.
Camellia: .........
Although, now I cannot make contact with you anymore.
All that I can do now is think back upon the time of the past world that I spent together with you.
To think that there could be such a future within a variety of delusions...
I can only just recall the trajectory of that miraculous encounter.
Hopefully, someday... I pray that you will remember the memories of us saving the world together, just as I do.
I believe that it is a good memory.
Camellia: I'm sure that my... that our world will be okay now.
Camellia: Therefore, please don't worry. Master... I'm sure that we...
will continue to protect this world that you loved so much.
Camellia: Therefore, someday again... Please look in upon our world.
I believe that I'll one day be able to meet you again, Master.
Camellia: Therefore, I won't say goodbye, okay?
Camellia: Therefore......
I quietly reach my hand out toward the blue sky while strongly thinking of you.
I thoroughly believe that these feelings of mine will reach you...
and that someday, I believe that your feelings will reach me as well.
If this scene has happened... then some faint portion of your power must surely still reside inside of me.
In that case, someday in the future... I hope the day will come where I can meet you again.
If you think so as well... If you wish for that day to come...
Then I'm sure that even that miracle will come true as well.
......Yes.
Because that is the power that you have... to create an infinite number of futures to make the impossible possible.
Therefore......
Camellia: See you later, Master.
That is why I am looking up at the sky again today.
To seek out the moment where my hand will reach yours, far beyond the edges of the stars.
Until the day arrives where eventually my heart reaches yours again.
...Yoshino Reiji and Sakura walk together towards the future that they desire.
They are once again able to walk the Earth side-by-side. And...
they have a deeper appreciation for all of the creatures who are able to live thanks to the benefit of the Sun's light.
However, the two of them are once again aware of the importance of what many would see as a trivial matter...
to be able to spend their 'normal days' like this peacefully...
Not just in this world, but it might perhaps be the same even in a higher-dimensional world where someone could be potentially watching over them from afar.
The two of them cannot help but wish... That hopefully, peace and happiness are not just present in their world, but in all worlds.
That is why the two of them continue to walk. Straightforward, no matter how far the distance may be... towards a bright and shining future.
???: ............
And, there is the appearance of a lone man, as he watches the two of them walk their path.
They are still so young. They do not yet know the truth of the sorrowful fate that awaits them...
But strangely, perhaps if it is these two people...
They may be able to find a different answer than he could, and perhaps change their fate.
...That man is somehow filled with hope as he watches the two of them.
...If it is them, then... they may be able to change the world that is slowly heading for its gentle death...
The 'decision' he made, while similar, is nothing but a sham and does not look like theirs.
???: Freya will seek the past, and Reiji will protect the future...
So, those are the 'decisions' that the two of you have made...
???: Then once again, their paths (Justice) will not intersect with mine.
It is unfortunate, but I do not want to involve them in this.
Understanding the truth of this world, he shoulders the burdens of many others as he walks his own path of 'Justice'... which is one beyond the means of humanity.
However, the burdens his path revolves around are something that humanity itself has created.
Is it because human beings instinctively desire to be purified of the sin they are born with,
or is it because they are a sublime existence that gods can never reach?
As a man and a mere human being, the answer to that question is not something that he can understand.
Yes.
Everything is but a spiral of fate that surpasses even God.
'Master': Reiji. And, Freya...
I wish you both a peaceful 'return', my children...
And with that, the man starts walking.
The path of light that Reiji and the others travel upon is a path that splits in two, where he takes the one they have not.
Freya travels a different path, seeking the light of the past.
It is a lonely path that leads to a restful end, and a new beginning.
'Master': The end of Project Svalinn is not far. Now, let us go...
'My Children'.
......Yes.
Shouldering a too sorrowful fate and the burden of his efforts, the man chooses a lonely path (Justice) that cannot be understood by anyone.
Even if it means that he must fight against both Man and God alike...

What Lies Ahead for K-12 Education with Helene Cunningham - Duration: 6:22.
We have a lot of challenges facing us
like all of the California Districts right now.
But the neat thing about the challenges,
is it gives us opportunities for growth and
to learn in different ways.
So we have the challenge right now,
our city of La Puente became a sanctuary city
and encouraged us to become a sanctuary district.
Our district has become a safe haven district.
It was a call to action really, an initiative
from our coaliltion groups in our community,
definitely from the city of La Puente.
And at each school board meeting
we had community leaders from different organizations,
we had parents, we had teachers and
classified staff and we had students as well
speaking to us about their fear.
What if we go to school and we
come home and our parents aren't there.
What, all of the big what if's
that they fear about everyday.
And that's one of our big challenges with
the social emotional piece right now,
is because there is that fear and that
trepidation about what is going to change?
Are we going to be okay?
Is our family going to be split up?
On the flip side of that part comes the fear of,
if categorical funding is taken away,
federal funding funding is taken away from
our district, we would lose about nine million dollars.
And so that would cut so many programs from all students.
And that's the double edged sword
between where we want to protect and then
in the same vein that might make us lose
this funding that brings, you know,
free breakfast and lunch to our students,
that brings head start preschool, that brings
so many of the services that we can offer
that are categorically funded.
In fact our whole division, the instructional
services division is categorically funded.
So all of these services that we bring to schools,
whether it's professional development,
whether it's training for the teachers
or the students or student or
adult leadership, would go away.
Most districts have achievement gaps.
Achievement gaps are very difficult to close.
There are many reasons for that.
The first part is being aware of the gaps
and we like to put faces to the data
so we're not just looking at a group of students,
you know the significant subgroup.
But we're actually putting a face to each piece of data.
So for every student we want to meet them
where they are, differentiate for them where they are.
So if they need acceleration, if they're
gifted, we want to go there.
If they need to be retaught something, we want to go there.
If they need an intervention, bell to bell
within the day or whether it's after school
or on the weekends, we provide that service.
Our multi-lingual department and equity
and access department have put on
Saturday academies in both language arts and math.
In the summers we have our algebra enrichment academies
and the first year we had 16 classes
of middle school students.
Last year was 22 classes and we expect 28 classes this year.
A big part of it is training our teachers
and administrators and classified staff
on what needs to happen.
So if in this, with this rigorous testing
students need to be able to complete
performance tasks and have more deeper
critical thinking and create and innovate and invent,
then they need practice doing those things.
So we are training our teachers on not
just gradual release of responsibility
but also layers of facilitation.
Because it's not just career and
college readiness that our students need.
It's career and college competitiveness
because we're preparing them for jobs
that don't even exist yet in the future.
And so a lot of training with technology.
A lot of training with 21st century
classrooms and flexibility and learning spaces.
In Hacienda La Puente we're very fortunate.
We are grateful to our community for
passing by 76% our school bond and that
is specifically for 21st century classrooms,
technology infrastructure and classroom settings
that will better meet the need of students.
So going full circle back to
the achievement gaps, they're hard.
They're definitely hard and we all need
training and we all need to keep moving
forward in order to get there.
Definitely status quo is not gonna cut it.
The new California school dashboard I think
is easier for students and parents
and community members to understand.
Students start taking these assessments
in third grade and third graders can
very readily understand colored graphs.
And they can understand that the blue one
at the top with all the pieces of pie,
that's the one that would be the highest level
and go through the color sequence.
The fact that it's not just based
on test scores alone is nice.
That it accounts for attendance, it accounts
for suspensions, it accounts for graduation
rates for high schools and all of those things.
So I think there are some pluses there.
I think it's good that every school is
held accountable because with this new
California school dashboard, every school is
given goals and targets as far as,
even if you're way up high like some schools
are in our state, they have to stay there.
They can't keep dropping and dropping.
So I think that's a good thing.
There's always going to be people questioning,
you know, why is there a new system and
we just got used to the old one.
But I do think it's one that our students
specifically and of course their parents
and all of our stakeholders can understand.
We need to create connections for
every child and family to the school.
And once students have those connections
and want to be there and feel success-
They may not feel success in every single
content area but as long as there's something
that they want to come to school for
and what keeps me awake is are we preparing them?
Are we giving them the best?
Are we treating them like we treat our
own children, because they are our children.
And I think sometimes with all of the hullabaloo
with the meetings and L cap and the funding and
all of the paperwork and all of the strategic plans
and everything, I sit in all of these meetings
and sometimes wonder, when are we gonna talk about the kids?
And I am a mom as well with three children,
so I always want to remember why we're here
and that's for every single student.

General Lessons—Navigator Control - Duration: 1:59.
ArcGIS Pro comes with a Navigator
Control which helps you move your camera
around your maps and scenes. To enable it
you toggle on the Navigator option on
the View tab and will appear in the
lower left corner of your views. Click
hold and drag on the outer ring to pan
around your map. You can resize the
control as needed. For example, for
touch screen interactions. And if you
expand it you'll expose all it's
capabilities. There's a Zoom-In button
for zooming you into your map. And a
grabbable control for rotating your map.
Click the North arrow to face north
again and use the zoom out button to see
a larger map extent. And you can shrink the
control back to a North arrow whenever
you want. The tool works the same way in
3D.
For example the Outer Ring interactively
pans across the scene. In 3D though there
are additional options. The Inner Sphere
lets you look around. The Zoom-In button
moves you forward into the center of the
view to the target point. You can rotate
just your direction
or you can do a full 3D pivot around the
view center point.
Zoom down moves the camera down
vertically. Then in tight spaces you can
use Look Around to change direction.
Pandering to move forward. The up arrow
to lift the camera above the content. And
then use a Look Around mode to refocus
on an important feature or an area. You
can configure how the tool works by
default under project options. On the
Navigation tab specify how you want the
control to appear in 2D, and in 3D, and
optionally adjust its default starting
size. It's also very easy to hide and
show the control from the View's
right-click Context Menu.
The navigator control helps you move
around in 2D and 3D, and it's also useful
for difficult navigation situations such
as underground or moving through Lidar.
I hope you enjoy using it.

Soaring Vanilla Prices Creating Struggle For Ice Cream Shops - Duration: 2:05.

YOU CAN EXPECT THAT COST TO BE

VANILLA BEANS AND VANILLA
EXTRACT IS ESSENTIALLY IN MANY
BAKING PRODUCTS AND IT IS A KEY
INGREDIENT IN ICE CREAM.
MAY IS USUALLY ONE OF THE
BIGGEST MONTHS IN ICE CREAM.
THERE IS A SHORTAGE IN THE
SUPPLY OF VANILLA BECAUSE OF A
CYCLONE IN MADAGASCAR WHERE 80%
OF VANILLA BEANS ARE GROWN.
YEAH A CYCLONE HIT IN MARCH
OF THIS YEAR.
PRICES FOR VANILLA BEANS ARE UP
DEPENDING ON WHO YOU ASK
ANYWHERE FROM FOUR TO EIGHT
TIMES.
THAT IS WHAT KELLY IS
EXPERIENCING AT HER ICE CREAM
PARLOR CHURN WHERE SHE MAKES HER
OWN ICE CREAM.
FIVE YEARS AGO WE USED
TO PAY $11.
NOW WE PAY $150.
THAT IS FOR THE BEANS.
VANILLA EXTRACT HAS SKYROCKETED
AS WELL.
THAT IS LIKELY TO IMPACT
PRICES IN THE WEEKS AHEAD.
PERHAPS TEN TO 20% HIGHER FOR
ICE CREAM.
OR FOR AN INDIVIDUAL CONE.
I THINK THAT PIECES COULD
INCREASE LIKE 25 TO 50 CENTS.
IT IS NOT JUST VANILLA ICE
CREAM USING VANILLA BEANS THAT
WILL GO UP IN PRICE.
ALL FORMS OF ICE CREAM THAT USE
VANILLA EXTRACT COULD GO UP IN
PRICE.
THAT IS ESPECIALLY TRUE OF SOFT
SERVE ICE CREAM.
A LOT OF THE SOFT SERVE
PLACES WILL BE AFFECTED A LOT
MORE.
THE SEARCH IS ON FOR AN
ALTERNATIVE.
WE ARE TRYING TO FIND
SUBSTITUTES FOR IT.
